Warbling Wade diligently dissects the Diablo dumpster debacle and then masturbates Bob with a burner, brave hearted Bob resurrects Schmidt, encounters a procrastinating plumber, gets cuffed and pumps pills on beer. From borrowing notebooks to firing blanks.

Mark Fischbach
It'S. Time for shotgun roulette. Now sit back and prepare to be distracted and enjoy the show.

Bob Muyskens
Hi, and welcome to distractible. My name is Markiplier, and I am here in a new location that's not bathtub, so you don't need to worry about anything at all. And also, I'm the host of today's episode. Thank you so much for attending and. Allowing me to continue my streak of incredible performance in and indelible episodes.

Indelible? Indelible. I. That is a word. I just don't know if that is what you mean.

I'll give a point to anybody that can tell me what indelible means. Unable to be delved means uneraceable. Oh, no. What? I'm at an Airbnb.

Mark Fischbach
I found. There's a notebook on this desk. I was like, perfect. It's the guess signing notebook. Oh, shit.

Bob Muyskens
This is gonna be so weird. Oh, fuck. Oh, yeah. Mark. You're gonna have an indelible mark on this Airbnb.

Mark Fischbach
You've made a very indelible mark on that notebook. And this. Oh, man. Oh, my God. Oh, man.

Bob Muyskens
And I just had to take up five whole pages of this bad boy. Oh, man. There goes your a b and b. I don't have to be your Airbnb rating, man. Oh, my God.

Mark Fischbach
That's fucking amazing. I thought it was cool that one we stayed at had, like, a porn company that signed previously. You get to have five pages of distractable in yours. Yeah, listen, somebody's about to have a whole episode of distractible in their GA. That's.

That's history right there. Somebody one day is gonna stay there that knows our podcast, and they're gonna message us and be like, dudes, I found it. I hope so. I really hope so, because otherwise it's. Gonna create a real boom in the Airbnb industry.

Looking for that. That logbook. Yeah. Yeah. This doesn't bode well.

Bob Muyskens
But anyway, outside of me being at this Airbnb and not messing anything up, nor anyone's ratings, my life is good. But I'm gonna hold off on that to hear from my competitors today. My. My guests, Bob and Wade. Bob, I've heard a lot about you.

Mark Fischbach
It's nice to finally meet you. I'm excited to be on the show. A long time watcher, first time guest. Is it my skins? It's actually milk skin.

Bob Muyskens
Milk skin. Yeah. Sorry about that. So, Bob, I hear that you're expecting a baby. I certainly was.

Mark Fischbach
And then he came here, and then I'm not really expecting him anymore. He just is around now. That must be fun. There's a lot less sleeping that I had heard, but otherwise, yeah, it's pretty fun. Well, you know what?

Actually, we have four other babies, too. There's a. There's a bird's nest outside of the. Of our windows. We have, like, a stairs from the upstairs to downstairs.

There's a window, and there's a tree right there. And there's a nest in it. And there's four babies in it. And it's heckin cute. You can see them.

They're all. And the mom comes and brings them food and spits it in their little mouths. But they're not your babies, right? They're on his property. Yeah.

And, like, an ownership type perspective, they're ours. But no, like, I didn't. They're not like my son. Okay, well, be that as it may, they're not your children, therefore, they don't count. And I won't give you any points.

Bob Muyskens
And no one told me what indelible means, so no one got a point for that? I told you what indelible means. I wasn't listening. It means it can't be erased. The mark that cannot be removed.

I guess I did kind of use it correctly for some reason. Yeah, kind of, but, like, just in a way, that's not how it's commonly used. But, like, I got what you were saying. Yeah, I'll give you the point. I'll give you the point.

I'll give you the point. Hold on. You know what inedible means? Yes. What's it mean?

Mark Fischbach
You know, it's funny. Edible and inedible actually, both mean that it can be lit on fire while it's inside. You just begrudging chuckles with me points. How does that score? You're on thin ice, you hilarious man.

Bob Muyskens
Wade, your life, same as usual. But I will be taking an indefinite leave of absence for the show. After recent comments, I realize what a stain I have made, and so I hope you all have a great episode, but this is the start of my indefinite leave. Oh. Could've sworn he was gonna.

Wade Barnes
I'm just fucking with you. I'm definitely back. Fuck people and fuck everyone. It's me. Cool.

Bob Muyskens
Is that your life? Yeah. Pretty. Pretty boring. I been playing Diablo recently.

Wade Barnes
Diablo four. Remember that game? That was not great. It seems like it's getting better as long as it follows the trajectory of Diablo three and they start adding, you know, all those great things. Diablo three that they, for some reason didn't launch.

Still missing some key things. But, like, it's getting better and I'm having fun with it. So really weird to not take any lessons from your predecessor. To me, I feel like that's the wrong move. Whenever people are like, man, I really love this feature.

And you launch a game and you're like, what if we get rid of all of those features and then add them back slowly as people admit that they liked them more? Yeah, that's the thing about, like, the game is people were really missing. I mean, you played Diablo too much more than I did in the original Diablo. But people were missing a lot of the style of gameplay from that era. And so I can't really speak to it that much because I wasn't a huge fan.

Bob Muyskens
But I did like how fast paced Diablo III was. And it just. When I started playing Diablo IV, it did feel incredibly slow. It was just very sluggish and progress seemed stilted and, you know, it just didn't seem as. And I get, like, the power came later, but even when I started getting, like, more abilities and stuff, it just seemed to be a bit more complicated.

So, yeah, I can't speak much to it. Well, so here's the thing. I don't know how long I'm allowed to rant on this, but Diablo two was, you played through the campaign, then you unlock the next difficulty. You play through the campaign on nightmare, unlock the next thing, you play through the campaign on hell. And then once you beat it on hell, which is very difficult because there were people that were just immune to your damage.

Wade Barnes
Like Diablo three and other games have fixed this or whatever since. But like, Diablo two is tough, man. If you made a fire sorceress, there were literally enemies immune to fire and you just could not hurt them. Immune to ice, immune to physical. You would just encounter that.

Either play with somebody else or skip that enemy move on. The bosses weren't, but, like, enemies could be. There were enemies in act four that had the spell iron maiden. You walk up and you melee one of those dudes after they cast iron maiden on you. You damage them, you blow yourself up because your damage is too much for your health pool.

And you reflect your damage back. You're dead. You had a hardcore character. Not anymore. You had all your gold.

Nope, it's gone. You're dead. Diablo two also had this key system where you could go farm like the Countess. You could farm. I forget where all the enemies were.

But anyway, you get these keys, key of terror, key of hate, key of destruction. And then ultimately I forget exactly how it worked. You put them like the Horadric cube or whatever, or you did something with them. It unlocks uber Tristram. You go to Tristram and you fight.

Whatever. You fight Lilith, you fight. I forget who all you unlock. I think it's Uber Tristram, ultimately, where you fight Diablo Bale and Mephisto all at once. They're very difficult.

They have all these mobs. They're very hard to kill. It was very difficult, really fun. But that was it. That was the end game.

The end game was farm for gear. Go do the Uber runs. That's it. Get your hellfire amulet or whatever it was. Ring.

Maybe it wasn't that. Maybe it was like a charm you kept. I think it was the hellfire torch you kept in your. Your inventory. Diablo three launched, and everyone hated it.

It launched. It got a lot of hate at launch because it had, like, a real money auction house. It had all these other features people were upset about. The gear grinding wasn't as great once you like the campaign, the story was fantastic. Once you finish, it was kind of like, I want to do that again.

But they added seasons. They added all kinds of different goblins. They added rifts. They added just a whole bunch of features that made it really fun. And by the end of Diablo three, I think it was a better game than Diablo two was.

But no one admitted it because it was just so bad. At launch, Diablo four, instead of learning about what Diablo three had done at the end, they were like, we don't need any of that. Let's make Diablo three launch again. But, like, with seasons but no endgame, what do you do? There are five dungeons.

And what do you do once you hit level 50? Well, from 50 to 100, you run those five dungeons, and you're gonna love it. And then the next season rolls around, you know what you want to do? You want to go around and reveal the map again, and you want to click on every statue, all 500 of them again that you did in season one. And then once you're done with that, you're gonna get your five stars guild points and your 20 paragon points, and you're gonna love it.

What about the end game? There are five dungeons. Why are you playing this game again so well? Okay, they've taken feedback and they've added stuff. So season two, I think it was, they added, like, durial and some other bosses that you can farm to get these like Uber uniques otherwise had like a one in 10 million drop chance.

They added ways to farm that season three. I actually don't even know what they added in season three because season two still didn't quite captivate me. Season four, they did a loot rebalancing. So now they've made where hell tides are more farmable and fun to run. I've not gone to endgame to see how the dungeon farming and boss farming is, but they are slowly incorporating community feedback and being like, okay, in a couple seasons we'll add that, we'll fix this, we'll do this.

They're listening. It's just a slow implementation. Ultimately I think they're going to get to the point where it's similar. Right now they've got something called the pit and the horn of something. I've not even tried it yet.

I've not gotten that far. They're getting to the point now where they're adding a lot of the features that people liked and wanted from the other games. But I just don't understand why at launch they didn't learn any of the lessons and they were just like, nah, this is great as it is when there was no endgame and it just frustrates me to no end because Diablo is one of those games. Like you said, I've been playing since the nineties. Diablo one on PlayStation, Diablo two on PC, three on PC, whatever.

Like, it's just been one of the games that franchise I've loved for so many years. And to see it come out in just a horrible state, lose its player base and then by the time it gets good, everyone's gone and no one's to give it a chance again. It just infuriates me to no end because the potential is there and they have a great concept. They just can't seem to get it right at launch when it seems to me so obvious what they need to implement, I just don't get it. Blizzard has not been doing well lately and it's a shame because Blizzard used to be like a standard of quality, legitimate quality for their stuff and they cared about what they did.

Bob Muyskens
But yeah, clearly not anymore. Sorry to go on that big tirade. It's just something that means something to me. No, it's fair. It's fair.

I'll give you a tirade point. I've been playing it again so far. This season has been fun. I will keep you updated, but it's a game that I want to love. And I want to give it a chance, but, like, how many chances can I give it?

All right, Bob, I'm going to give you another chance for small talk. Just because there wasn't much. Our water heater broke and there's maybe a guy on the way here right now who knows to maybe look at it and tell me it's going to cost an arm and a leg to replace it. Who knows? If I get up and leave mid episode, it's probably related to that or I had to poop.

Wade Barnes
I'm so sorry, Bob. You were voted to replace me and now you've got the water demon. I still haven't been able to find that pole and I just decided to close the subreddit and stop looking at it. So I'm just going to take Mark at his word on that one. I swear it existed.

Bob Muyskens
I saw it. I voted in it. That's weird. It was created by markiplier. It was created by Mark and then frozen by Mark.

Mark Fischbach
And there's one vote and it was Mark and he voted for me. Did I screenshot it? Did I screenshot? I probably didn't screenshot. It was like very early in the morning.

Bob Muyskens
No, I didn't. I got cute pictures of chica, though. Do you want to see those? She saw Creek. She loved it.

She was, she hates going in the pool or stuff, but she loves the creek. She loves the creek. Dead. Creek. Creek dead.

Wade Barnes
You want to see a kind of a more sad puppy picture? What? No. No way. Creek.

So Jesse, our friend Jesse, I was playing Diablo with him, but we just had Memorial Day recently and people were launching off fireworks and his dog hates fireworks. So he sent me this picture of his dog hiding from the fireworks under his desk. Oh, he's very cute, stressed out doggy. That's adorable puppy. Oh, my God.

Bob Muyskens
That's an adorable puppy. She's a very adorable puppy, but she does not like fireworks. Those listeners are missing out. Bob, what were you saying? That's how he reacts to my small talk.

Wade Barnes
Bob, I'm so sorry. You are? Me? Yeah. I really am the new, the new blitz, aren't I?

Mark Fischbach
You know, I was out, I was out back the other day and my house, for no reason. My house smelled like cool ranch Doritos. And I got it. I was like, whoa, what happened? And then I called and I asked a guy and he was like, oh, your air conditioner is going to explode.

We better replace it. How's your radon? I did tons of radon. The radon coming out my ears and every time the radon fan turns on to make more radon. It's all radon.

So fucking annoying. God, it's drive me insane. Every three and a half minutes that happens. I got a fireplace that won't turn off. It's just a constant fire.

It won't go away. I can't put water on it. I ejected it into a vacuum. Nothing. I'm gonna start documenting with photos and videos, everything we go through so you guys don't think I'm just making shit up.

Me too. Me too. This is all real stuff. It's happening right now. Ranch Doritos.

Wade Barnes
That is a reference from, like, 2014. Like a charity stream in like 2012, 2014. Somewhere in that range, right? What did cool ranch Doritos keep away? They kept away.

Mark Fischbach
The werecats were cats. I was king of the Werecats. We told a scary story about going out into the Catskills, which everyone thought I said cat scales Catskill mountains. And somehow I became king of the were hats in my piss covered peacoat. Is a peacoat made of pee, not a peacoat made of wool.

And cool ranch Doritos are what you put out on the window sills to keep the werecats at bay. That's such a strange. That's crazy. That's weird, because this overlaps, for me, that overlaps with, like, I can't remember people's names and personal stuff, but I do remember, like, quotes from tv shows. And for me, that whole episode is like almost like a piece of media.

But I also lived and experienced it. But I remember very vividly that one, I think was at your mom's table, still in your mom's house. And I remember we had. We had our own mics on that setup. We weren't using the blue yeti in the middle.

And I remember I was on the end of the table, pointed towards the kitchen. I have, like, a really vivid memory of that day and that whole thing that happened many, many years ago. Was that the one where we played the Minecraft mod, where we got to go to the moon? Probably, yeah, the Minecraft mod where I accidentally wired up a permanent explosion. Cause I wired two solar panels together and they were powered by the sun and they would just make an explosion whenever the sun was out.

Bob Muyskens
I always miss that. I miss. I miss those tech it and technic mods of Minecraft. Those were the days. Yeah, they still exist.

Wade Barnes
They might be updated for all I know. I don't know, probably Minecraft is still popular somehow. Also, my hamster was dead, but now he's alive. You have a hamster. His name is Schmeiders.

God fucking damn it.

Mark Fischbach
What are you so disappointed about, Wade? He seems so bothered. I'm just telling my personal stories. I'm just sad your hamster came back. Man, I've been trying to kill that thing for years.

Bob Muyskens
All right, well, here's your chance. Good segue, Wade. We hit the really dramatic ominous music. We're gonna play a game. And by we, I mean you guys are gonna play a game.

Uh, editors put in the sound of me slapping down a shotgun on the table. I just had to slappy thighs. I thought it was just gonna be. Like, why is your shotgun so wet and slimy? Where'd you keep that?

Mark Fischbach
Why is there a shotgun, Mark? There's a shotgun. Because you guys are going to play a fun game called shotgun roulette, okay? Against. Against each other.

Bob Muyskens
You two are going to play against each other. Is this like the video game that Mark's making a movie of? Yes. Absolutely. 100% correct.

Mark Fischbach
Starring Ryan Reynolds and the rock. I was expecting a text saying, wait, you ruined it. Stop. Delete this post immediately. Mark stares at the camera in a panic.

What? Here's how it works. I have put shotgun gels into that shotgun in a ran in an order that you don't know. It's not random to me, because I put them there. There are three live rounds, and there are three blank rounds in this shotgun.

Bob Muyskens
For the first round, it will always be three live and three blanks. But they will be in a different order that you don't know. So here's how it works. You two are facing against each other. You each will take turns with the shotgun.

You can choose to point it at either your opponent or yourself. And here's the thing. If you point it at yourself and it doesn't go off, you get another turn. But if you point it at yourself and it goes off, you lose a lightning bolt. We're not gonna say that your head explodes or anything like that into a fine pink mist.

Mark Fischbach
What if I'm real fast and I aim it, but then I'm like, what? Right as I pull the trigger. No, no, no. That's. That's cheating.

Bob Muyskens
You might as well have been aiming at the wall. I'm improving. Come on. Yes. And me.

I won't. Who wants to go first? Wade does. Me. Yeah.

Wade Barnes
All right. Wade, you go first. All right. I've got a shotgun in my hands. There are six shells.

Three are live, three are blank. I don't know the order. Is this like the game where there's other stuff on the table, or is it just a shotgun? Yeah. Do we have, like, items or something we can use?

Mark Fischbach
How. Not yet. Okay. Just the shotgun. So it's a 50 50 chance.

How many lightning bolts do we start with? You start with three. I am going to aim it at mark. Wait, who am I playing against? Bob?

I am the first one at mark episode over. It would be. It would be an interesting. A three way shotgun roulette. That is.

Bob Muyskens
That is a fascinating thing. Maybe you want to hop in. Do we got an extra chair? No, it's just like us playing hand simulator with the revolver. We have to play that again.

Mark Fischbach
That was so fun. I know. It was, like, not pleasant fun, but it was so fucking funny. I was having a good time. Even in the moments where you're like, I did it.

You never did it. You never actually did what you meant to do. It was so funny. Didn't we defuse the bomb? Once we did diffuse the bomb, it.

Wasn'T in an accident. Didn't we do it? And then someone was like, did you cut the red wire? And they're like, no, I cut the blue wire and. Oh, okay, good.

Wade Barnes
Probably. But I have tried that with multiple different groups. I've tried that stupid bomb thing. We never get past, like, the first little thing. So the fact that we actually accomplished that once is one of the bigger gaming accomplishments of my career.

Bob Muyskens
Congratulations, man. I'm really proud of you. Now, who are you gonna shoot? I'm gonna shoot Bob. All right, you aim.

Wait, sorry, that's wrong. What kind of shotgun is this? I was trying to get a soundboard. Cause I was like, how? I don't have a way to play it on the computer, so I have.

To do it through my phone, like, the animal noises. And all I could get was, like, this meme soundboard with, like, just a bunch of fucking memes. Anyway, take that, Bob. A nice jazzy tune. What do you do?

You pointing at, Bob? I shoot Bob.

Mark Fischbach
Was that a fart? I had a burrito before this, Bob. I'm sorry. The closest thing I can get to a shotgun, son. It's the rock eyebrow raise.

Three. That's the sound. Damn. What is he hit? What happened?

Yes, he's hit. Oh, that seemed bad. Yeah, that didn't seem like a good sound. Do I give it to him? Give him the shotgun?

Bob Muyskens
Yeah. I don't want to, man. What if he shoots me? He might. That's a shotgun racking.

Mark Fischbach
Okay. It's wrecked. Okay, so now there's two live, three dummy rounds? Yes. I aim it at mark.

Wade Barnes
No, don't aim it at the dummy. There just might be dummy rounds. Now, here's. Here's the thing I'm gonna say. What's important about this game is memory, understanding what has been, what will be.

Bob Muyskens
You can just play it by random if you really want to, but once the items get in, then you really need to start paying attention, because. Yeah, well, it is. It is just chance right now. I remember right now, but there's nothing I can do to learn any more information. Right.

Mark Fischbach
Do I have anything at my disposal? Not yet. So it's. It's two two against, three odds of getting shot. I made it myself.

Bob Muyskens
Yourself? Yeah. Then what do you do but tell. It sweet things, whisper in its ear and see what happens. Oh, come on.

Mark Fischbach
God damn it. Oh, too bad, Bob. That was a big old kaboom. That was a kablam. Oh, Mark, are you able.

Are you able to lie? Are you. Are you. Are you mistruthing us right now? I will show you after we do it.

Bob Muyskens
I already have written out the order for this entire round's worth of thing. I have six loads that I've already written out. Nice. He said loads. All right, that's a shotgun reloading.

Wade Barnes
Oh, damn it. The spiders in there.

Mark Fischbach
I think the plan. The plastic trigger broke off on the shotgun. Hang on. Look, it's not a good shotgun, guys. Just.

Bob Muyskens
I'm not. Anyway, clearly, we just shot our shot Bob twice, I guess, and he's still standing, so. Well, he shot Bob once. I shot Bob once. Yeah, he shot Bob.

He sure did. Six rounds. We fired two of the live. There's three blanks, one live. And.

Wade Barnes
And. You don't have to say that out loud. You don't have to say that part out loud if you want the other to maybe forget about it, but just. It's up to you. I wonder what he's going to do.

I mean, statistically, I should aim at it myself, but, like, I just kind of want to keep shooting you until it hits. Please do. Please. I would love for that to happen. Okay, I'll aim it at Bob.

You know what? Forget the odds. I'm just gonna keep shooting Bob. I don't want to get hit. This is some coin flip bullshit.

Mark Fischbach
If this is a live round right. Now, I shoot Bob. Mark's making a face that's making me not feel good about what's about to happen. Nothing. It was empty.

Bob Muyskens
It was nothing. Congratulations. All right. Hey, you know what? You have a one out of three chance of hitting me?

You sure do, Bob. I mean. I mean, there's a 90% chance of hitting. We just shoot mark, dude. I mean, it's not funny.

Mark Fischbach
If I shoot Wade, I have to aim it at myself. I like this. Bob's only going to shoot him, and I'm only going to shoot him all day. You basically have nothing to fear.

Bob Muyskens
Hey, I forgot to racket. Sorry. I did it in my imagination. Yeah. Yeah, it was all right.

Well done. Well done. No hits there, Bob. You get to go again. I know the numbers would say that I should change my answer and aim it at Wade, but numbers be damned, I'm gonna aim it at myself.

Mark Fischbach
I'm either gonna win this in amazing fashion or go out in a blaze of shotgun blasts to my face. That's such a bold strategy. Let's see if it pays off.

Wade Barnes
It did pay off. All right, now you've got a 50 50 chance. All right, now, I know what the numbers are saying, that I should probably aim it at Wade, but I have a feeling. I just have a strong inkling. No.

Mark Fischbach
Yeah, probably I'll aim this last one at Wade, see what happens. I hold up a mirror and I say, no, you. He pulls out an uno reverse card and lays out. And I go, well, aim it myself. Okay, so for the.

Bob Muyskens
When the items come in, I'll put in an uno reverse card. If you guys would like one in there. Sure. Yes. A hundred percent?

Mark Fischbach
Yes. All right. Okay. Okay. Here we go.

Wade Barnes
Ow. Ow. Wait. You got blasted. Well, now I've got a gun with no bullets.

Bob Muyskens
Yeah, absolutely. That gun no longer has any bullets in it. It. Let's fix that. But before we do, I think it's time for you guys to get some items.

Wade Barnes
I thought you were gonna say it was time for an ad break, and I was like, we need to do that now. Yeah, I was getting ready for the sponsoring. Hey, before that, let's hear from our sponsors.

Bob Muyskens
We're back with the wheel of items. Do you guys want me to put the uno reverse card in here? Oh, absolutely, yes. No one likes the inverter, so we can put the first. What's the inverter?

Wade Barnes
Yeah, what's the inverter? Do I remember some of these? I don't. It changes what's in the chamber right then and there. Oh, that's rough.

Mark Fischbach
It's interesting, but it's kind of a gambly thing. Okay, so just to go over what I know, I think pills heals you. One beer, for some reason, gets rid of the current shell. You like, rack that shell out? The shotgun?

Bob Muyskens
Yeah. Handcuffs means you get. Whoever has the shotgun gets two shots. The person doesn't get to like, no matter what happens, they are still stuck. Saw you deal double damage if you hit.

Mark Fischbach
Yeah. You saw off the barrel of the shotgun. Right. Magnifying glass. You get to see what's in the chamber.

Bob Muyskens
Yes. Okay. And you can combine these and do multiple in, like, one round? Yes. You can do all of the items in a single round if you want, or you can save them until you get what you need.

Wade Barnes
Uno reverse, I'm guessing, is, like, the way we're gonna implement that is if Bob's like, I'm gonna aim at Wade and pull the trigger. I'd be like, uno reverse. Or Bob's like, I'm gonna aim it myself. And I'm like, uno reverse. I think it's an instant.

Mark Fischbach
It's. It's like a. Like in a car, like in magic or a card game. It's an instant where. Yeah.

Bob Muyskens
That's the only counter card we're going to have in here. But it is risk reward, because if you're not. If it is 50 50, then do you play it or don't you play it? It is. It is interesting.

Or if you have a better idea, or if you did a magnifying glass and you know what's in there, like, you could. You could work with that. So. Okay. I think I know.

Wade Barnes
I think I know them all except for burner phone and magnifying glass. Then we're going to start this. You guys are going to get two items for this next round, and then the round after that. You get three in the round after that, you get four. I will allow you to bank items.

Bob Muyskens
If you don't use them in a single round, most likely you will, but I'll allow you to bank them. You can have up to eight in the game. Like, I don't think we'll get to eight, but I'll allow it. If I'm not using a single item. Screw it.

Mark Fischbach
I want to keep those things as about valuable. All right, Wade, you went first. You're going to spin first. So you get. Is it spinning?

It's spinning very slightly. There it is. Pills. Okay. All right, Bob, you're up next.

What happens if I run out of lightning bolts? Is it over or do I just. So there's. It's three rounds. So that lightning bolt ends of the round.

Wade Barnes
And then, you know, I would win the first round. Then we go to round two. No reverse. You got the uno reverse. That's powerful one.

Mark Fischbach
That's a good. I like that one. That's funny. So we're doing basically a best of three. That's how it is in the game.

Bob Muyskens
All right. Wait. Is your second item, and you get the burner phone. Okay. So this one's an interesting one.

The burner phone. In the game, when you call, it'll tell you a random. Any of the shotgun shells that are left. If it's not the first round, it'll tell you if it's a blank or not. So if you call, I will.

I will message you. I will type out, say, you know, the last shotgun shell is a blank or it's live. Okay. I don't get to decide. You just tell me a random fact about one shell.

Mark Fischbach
Get some information. That's interesting. Yeah. You will know which one, like, for certain. And let me tell you, in the game with this item is super powerful, like, incredibly valuable, knowing, like, okay, it's coming up.

Bob Muyskens
And also, I know that there's a blank at the end or there's a live at the end. So that means it's more likely that there's blanks at the front. It really weighs it. So it's like a. It's kind of like magnifying glass, but you don't know which one you're getting.

Wade Barnes
Okay. It's kind of like a phone where it's not your main phone, it's an extra one. And you get rid of it once you use it. Right? Yes, that's true.

Bob Muyskens
Bob, you get a second uno reverse. Oh, you better fucking watch out. If I. Oh, you can stack them. You can.

Mark Fischbach
Uno reverse. Uno reverse. If I ever learn any valuable information, God forbid. And here's the thing, Bob, you have one lightning bolt left. Wade, you have two.

Wade Barnes
If. If it goes down to no lightning bolts, that round ends. The shotgun gets reset. But you keep your items, I'll let you keep your items. Cross.

Mark Fischbach
Only uno reverses. Please. Give me eight uno reverses, sir. All right, so, to recap, Bob, you have two uno versus Wade, you have pills and a burner phone. All right, Bob, you are up.

Aim it at myself? It's never. The odds are never gonna be better than they are now. I aim it at myself, both pull the trigger. Ha.

Bob Muyskens
Well done. There's still two blanks in there. Wait, hold up. That sound is literally bone crack. It's closest I can get to.

Mark Fischbach
It. Sounds reasonably close to, like, a slide on a. Yeah, sure. Now, the numbers would say I should aim it at Wade. I know what I would do if I were you.

But I think we all know what I have to do. And I aim it at myself and pull the trigger.

Wade Barnes
I was really hoping you say that. And then you'd hold up one of your uno reverses on yourself. Hilariously, Bob, just ended. He is much like the actual NPC in the game, where he just took his last lightning bolt and blasted it away. Look, I had a plan, and it hadn't let me down thus far.

Mark Fischbach
I wanted to see if it was going to see me all the way. Now I can change plans. That's good. That's good, man. Round one ended a lot sooner than I thought it would.

Bob Muyskens
That is. That is something else. Don't worry. We're gonna have so many items. And several.

Mark Fischbach
Stretch it out, right? Yes. So we do pick new items. So you guys get more items, even though you've used none. That's what I was basically excited for.

Bob Muyskens
Yeah. So now the. Basically, everything is reset. I gotta draw more shotgun shells. And I gotta get my goddamn coin.

Bob, you get the first item, and you're gonna get three this time. So you get three more items. Uno reverse. Uno reverse. I can't.

Wade Barnes
I have no idea what it's leading toward. Okay. It's pills. All right, Bob, you got pills. All right, Wade, you're up next.

Uno reverse. Uno reverse saw. All right, Wade. Okay, Bob. Uno reverse.

Mark Fischbach
Uno reverse. Uno reverse. Well, that doesn't look like uno reverse. That looks like handcuffs. That's handcuffs.

Bob Muyskens
That's still pretty good. That's pretty good. I feel like that's one of the top tier items to me. I feel like uno reverses, if I put it like, if I saw the shotgun, you're just gonna be like, nah. All right.

You got mag? That's good, Bob. Wait, I got mag glass? Yeah. You got mag.

I can remind you of what your items are. And a beer for Bob. Oh, hell, yeah. And then you got two unos from last round. Okay.

Wade Barnes
So I've got pills, burner, saw, mag glass, beer. Yeah. Let me reiterate, Bob. You have pills, handcuffed beer. Uno.

Bob Muyskens
Uno. Wade, you have saw, magnifying glass, beer, pills, burner, phone. What, do you get it first this time? Yes, you get it first. But obviously, I'm gonna aim it at Wade.

Changing up the strategy. No, I can't. I've been aiming at myself. That didn't pan out, so I have to aim at it. Wade.

Wade. Can I hold up one of his uno reverses? No. I smile.

Mark Fischbach
Right in your stupid teeth. What are the odds? Wait. How much health did we have this time? You have three.

Bob Muyskens
Still have three. You have two now. Yeah, Wade, you have two now. Can I have three again? Depends on what you do.

Wade Barnes
That's nicely. So, it's his turn. Even though I. Because I didn't name it myself. It says even though he.

Bob Muyskens
Yes. Okay. Yes, yes, yes, yes. We'll make your move, pony boy. I do have items, but I'm busy with those, so I'm gonna aim it at Bob.

Wade Barnes
I'm gonna pull the trigger, I'm gonna. Hold up my hands in fear and do nothing. Oh, come on.

Mark Fischbach
God damn. Whoa, whoa. That my replacement? All right, Bob, you have the shotgun. Now I'm gonna take my pills and heal back up to three lightning bolts.

Wade Barnes
I'm bleeding over here and I'm fine. And you got. Wait, what? The sigma. That's the sound of me healing.

What's that one mean? There you go. You took pills and now that's what you're hearing. I done got healed. Yep.

Bob Muyskens
You now have three health. The numbers would tell me I should aim it at myself, and so I will. I aim it at myself and I pull the trigger without thinking. Jesus Christ. What the fuck, man?

This one, I was like, this first round, there's no fucking way. Because I just kept chucking up a coin and it kept my heads, heads, heads, heads. And so it looked. It looks completely unbelievable, but it's true. Like, I swear to God, let me not reveal anymore.

It was just. That's what it was like. It was just. I couldn't fathom how that happened. But you know what?

Mark Fischbach
Coins always get me. I should have kept in mind that you were flipping a coin. I should have uno reversed my own self. Whatever. I thought that was wrong because it's the coins knew what I would think, and they knew how to get me.

And they did that. That they did. They sure did. Anyway, do we have to keep shooting the blanks? No, we start over once the live rounds are all gone.

Right? Or not start over. But you get another. You put more shells in. Okay, so we're both at two health.

Wade Barnes
You used your pills? Yes, man. Thank God for that. You should have kept your strategy of only aiming it at me. While Wade thinks about his next move, I steal his pills and take those two.

Bob Muyskens
No, no, you get more. You get more items. Here, I'm gonna give you some more. Oh, shit. All right.

All right, Wade, you get the first item. You're gonna be up to eight, so you won't have any more after this. That looks like a beer, Bob. You've got, ooh, handcuffs. You're just gonna keep me cuffed all day, man?

You cannot use them sequentially. You have to have a turn in between use, even in the game. I've tried that. It's. It doesn't allow you to do it.

That's another beer, dude. I'm just gonna get drunk. We just over getting trashed. All right. What are we doing?

Mark Fischbach
Shotguns. All right. Far out, man. Bob, you get a saw? I could really use some more pills to refill the pills I already wasted.

Ooh. Is this adrenaline? What does that do? Wade, you know how you were asking if you could steal any of his? This is how you do it.

Bob Muyskens
You use this item, then you get to use. Use any item of Bob's, but you have to use it immediately. So you use that to use one of his. Jesus. You just get so amped up that you just grab something and do it pretty much.

And in the game, it's all rusty and terrible. That's another beer. Yeah, beer for Bob. We can share a beer together. Yes, you can share all the beers.

So I'm loading the next round here. Listen for the loading.

Mark Fischbach
God, it sounds so realistic. Five. I counted five. Yeah. Was that five?

Bob Muyskens
That's how many live rounds are in this one? So it's five and three dummies. How many total? Yeah. Five live, three dead.

Mark Fischbach
Oh, I think Wade should go first. I gotta start using some items here. Can I. Yeah. You got eight man over here hoarding items and winning.

Wade Barnes
Okay. Question here. So how does uno reverse work? If I, like, use items, can Bob stop me from using items? It's.

Mark Fischbach
It's for the trigger pool, right? Like, as the gun is about to go off, you can uno reverse it. And switch universe and it flips around. Okay, so even if I, like, I don't think I have handcuffs, but even if I were to, like, handcuff bob or something, if. And then I've got to pull the trigger, he can uno reverse make me shoot me instead of him with that pole.

Bob Muyskens
If he's handcuffed, I don't think he can do anything. But you don't even have handcuffs or. Why are you asking? Well, I'm just theorizing for the future how the una reverse would. Might affect my just theory.

Mark Fischbach
Crafting this very important game mark is managing with a sheet of paper. Look, man, I've got eight items here to work with. You got unreversed. I'm just trying to think it through. Okay, I'm going to.

Wade Barnes
I'm going to do that. I'm going to adrenaline rush and steal his handcuffs. All right, so you just handcuffed Bob. So, Bobby, you lose your next turn. So it'll go back to weight no matter what.

And you lose one handcuff. Yes, Andy. Okay. You lose adrenaline. He loses handcuffs.

Bob Muyskens
You just used it, Bob. You're handcuffed. I'm going to solve. I probably should have used a different item first. I guess.

Wade Barnes
I'm gonna shoot Bob. All right. Damn it.

Bob Muyskens
Sorry about that, my friend. That didn't work. But he's still handcuffed. So you get another turn. But the end of the.

Mark Fischbach
Well, technically, the handcuffs come off once it's Wade's turn again, right? Yes. So it's. Wade pretends to hand the gun to me and then takes it back. And I'm all.

And I got free hands again. So, theoretically, I could do no reverse. Yeah. Now you don't have handcuffs, so. Yeah, it's his turn again.

Bob Muyskens
You don't have handcuffs. Well, he's got one pair. He had two. Yes. Mark you this on paper in front of you.

Wait, but. Wait. Are you using an item right now? I use the saw and I use my adrenaline. Okay, that's good.

Wade Barnes
So now it's the guns in my hands. There's. I'm gonna. You know what, dude? I need a drink.

I'm gonna drink a beer. How is mark the most confused. I'm so. I don't know. But I'm gonna drink a beer.

Bob, you wanna drink a beer with me? Yeah. Cheers. But not real. Really?

Bob Muyskens
You drink a beer. That's one beer. Down it goes. Live round pops out. All right, so we're down to four and two.

Mark Fischbach
Yeah. Maybe I was more. I was more asking Wade. Honestly, you seem really lost in the sauce. Thankfully, I'm writing things down.

Bob Muyskens
I'm so glad I'm reading. I'm going to aim it at Bob and pull the trigger. Uno, reverse. I'm gonna aim it at myself and pull the trigger. He sure is.

Mark Fischbach
Oh, hey, wait. Just go. Blasted in the face. Does that mean it's his turn again? Or does that mean it's my turn?

Cause he still chose to shoot me. If he chooses himself and it shoots him, he loses that extra chance. If it's a blank. When he aims at himself, that's the only time you get another one. Oh, nifty.

It's my turn either way. Yeah. So I've got one lightning bolt left. Yes, Wade, you have one lightning bolt left. I've got five items.

Wade Barnes
One lightning bolt. You've got five items. Two lightning bolts. I'm gonna start my turn very responsibly by drinking a beer. All right?

Bob Muyskens
You drink a beer, live round pops out. I use my other handcuffs on Wade. Are you sure you don't want to use them on yourself? I will allow it. God, you almost got me.

Mark Fischbach
Oh, wait. What does he want me to do? Hang on. All right, he's handcuffed. I am at Wade and I fire.

Oh, no, it's my turn again. It's your turn again, Bob. Handcuffs are off. Wade, if you had any uno reverses, you could use them, but you don't. Hey, Wade.

What do you want to barter for my uno reverse card? Beer. You know what I just had? When I'm good, I think I'm just gonna aim and wait. And fire.

Wade Barnes
Bam. Well executed. You know, that would have been a lot funnier if it was a blank. If it had been a blank, that would have been very funny and a little bit confusing. Cause of how numbers work.

Mark Fischbach
EBay Motors is here for the ride. Remember when you first saw the potential? You're talking about the potential. The potential. You thought to yourself, oh, a little elbow grease, some fresh installs, little bit of love, you could transform that body full of rust into a baby.

Bob Muyskens
One win for Bob. One win for Wade. I think we'll just have to call this next one. This will be the end all decider. I've got five items, and Bob has three.

Wade Barnes
Is that right? And you're about to get some more. Fuck. It's going to get weird up in here. You guys go to four lightning bolts.

Bob Muyskens
So, Bob, you're getting the first item. Hell, yeah. Give me a good one. Oops, another saw. So you get a saw.

You now have two saws. If I saw twice, does that mean. Does three damage or four days? That. No, no, no.

Wade Barnes
It means you have a broken shotgun. I cut it. I cut it into little bits and throw it at Wade. It's a softer way, man. There's a lot of damage coming in here.

Mark Fischbach
Saw. I mean, look. Look, man. You're seeing it. I guess I'm using saws every turn for the rest of the game.

Bob Muyskens
Be careful. You might have a little. Nah, it's fine. It'll be fine. All right.

Looks like we got some handcuffs. This is last item for you, Bob. Adrenaline. Adrenaline. You'll have to settle for bills.

Mark Fischbach
All right. And you can't heal past four still, right? No, you cannot heal past four. And a magnifying glass. Oh, shoot, man.

Wade. Got a bunch of good stuff. You got good stuff. How many did you just give him? Did you give him three or four?

Wade Barnes
I'm up to eight items. Yeah, he's up to eight. You got three extra. He got three extra. You're at six.

I'm at eight right now. Now. So, what you have, Bob, you have a saw? You have three saws. Oh, good.

Bob Muyskens
You have pills, an uno reverse, and a beer. So that's. You have six items right now, Wade, you have a saw, handcuff, two magnifying glasses, pills, a burner phone, and two beers. That's eight items. You cannot have any more items.

Wade Barnes
And, Bob, I think it's the shotgun first. Yes. It is his turn with the shotgun first. Listen for the load.

That's four bullets, bub. What shall you do? Start this with a. Let's burn this mother down. I use a saw.

Oh, my God. Aim at himself. What a power.

Mark Fischbach
I use a saw and I shoot it at Wade. Wade. I want to drink a beer.

Bob Muyskens
Alright, that's two health down for Wade there. I knew that would happen. All right, Wade. I'm gonna take my pills. I'm gonna take Bob's pills.

You can't do that. You can't have them. Well, fuck, man. Let's go crazy. Can I use the burner phone?

Sure can. Only I get to know the answer to this, right? Yeah. Don't tell me what he tells you. I'm not supposed to know this.

Mark Fischbach
I guess I use a phone tap and listen in on your conversation. Damn it. You have that? It's my secret personal ability. Okay, let me make sure.

Bob Muyskens
I'm sending that to Wade. Feel free to misunderstand whatever Mark just said. All right, Wade. How you feeling? I'm going to drink a beer.

All right. You drink a beer. Once one of your two last beers down, blank shell pops out. I'm a magnifying glass. Alright, you're magnifying message.

You again. Get rid of all these bad boys want secrets. In this round, I'm gonna aim it at myself. Aimed at himself. No, he doesn't.

Mark Fischbach
Ooh, wait. It would have been really funny if that was anything else with there. Oh, well, I'm a handcuff bob. Okay, he's handcuffed. I'm gonna blow through them all.

Wade Barnes
I'm gonna saw. He's gonna saw. All right. He's going for it. I'ma shoot Bob.

Mark Fischbach
I duck. Does that help? Amazingly, he's handcuffed to the table, so he can't move very far. Not just my hands are handcuffed. I can move a lot with my arms tied down.

Bob Muyskens
Bob, you got blasted for two points. Your handcuffs break, but it's now Wade's turn again. I'm gonna use the magnifying glass. Meal smother fuckers. Did you have.

That's his last one. Damn. I thought you only had one. I should have been writing this down. I think this.

Wade Barnes
I'm gonna aim at it myself. Wait a minute. No, go ahead and blast yourself in the face, you dummy.

That was a. That was an attempt to get you to uno. Reverse. I guessed as much. Fuck.

Bob Muyskens
All right, so that Uno is gone. That was a. Oh, no, it's knock on. Wait. No, it's not gone.

Mark Fischbach
I didn't do nothing. You didn't do nothing? Dude, I'm down to a beer. You're down to a beer. Lightning bolts and Bob's down to two lightning bolts, too.

And what items do I currently have? You saw pills. Uno saw. And beer. I am going to take my pills.

Bob Muyskens
You got another lightning bolt? Blue. Blue. Bloop. Okay.

Mark Fischbach
I am going to chug a beer. You chug a beer, you rack the gun. Blank pops out. Interesting. I am going to saw the gun.

Wade Barnes
Aim it at yourself. Aiming at yourself.

I don't like this 50 50 bomb.

Mark Fischbach
And then I go ahead and aim that at. Well, I'm gonna aim it at Wade and pull the trigger. Oh, come on, man. All right. You're aiming at a Wade.

Oh. Uno reverse. Yeah. Wade, that was. That was quite the.

Bob Muyskens
I think. I think you realized what corner you backed yourself into by magnifying and seeing what it was. Cause it's cursed knowledge, right? Because he had that Uno reverse. Yeah, the Uno reverse.

Wade Barnes
Really? That was the most fucky item. Because it's like, any knowledge I have, if I play on that knowledge, I know Bob could just be like, nope. You would have 5d chessed the shit out of me if you magnifying glass. And then immediately aimed at me without hesitation.

Mark Fischbach
I would have had no idea. There is something to say for speed. I suppose that is true. But with that, Bob, you have won the tiebreaker. Third round.

Hell, yeah. Everyone rejoiced when Wade was dead. Goodbye. We fairly kept victory out of Wade's hands. Yes.

Bob Muyskens
We did it by the sheer skin of. And I gave him, like, every information he had. A lot of really good information, that one. Yeah. Yeah.

Mark Fischbach
A ton of info. He used all of his. I mean, he played it really smart because he don't. He. He did the blank, and then the other blank he knew about, shot, tried to shoot himself, sawed you.

Bob Muyskens
If he just didn't have that cursed knowledge of that latin, that next shell, I feel like he might have had that. But Alaska, such is the way of things. That was fun, though. I mean, I hate you guys. And our friendship is actually over.

Wade Barnes
And this is all a facade. We're doing this for money. We don't like each other. Fuck you guys. And I've ruined this.

Bob Muyskens
This Airbnb notebook. Did you continue to take to do the episode into that notebook? I sure did. Yep. Tim and Margaret were here, and also a bunch of shotgun shells.

Mark Fischbach
Now, at the end of it, just put, like, Mark, Amy, chica and Henry, sign your work. Yeah, probably. All right. Anyway, so, Bob, you guys got. You got points for indelible wet and cat skills.

Bob Muyskens
Wade, you got tirade points. But in the end, Bob, you won the overall round. So you win the game. That was fun. Yeah, you like that?

Mark Fischbach
If I hadn't started that last round with an instant two shot to your face, I think it might have gone very differently for you. Which basically means I won by sheer luck. But that's how I like to win. Well, Wade did shoot himself in the face trying to trick you. So it was a.

Bob Muyskens
It was a higher risk. It was a high risk, low reward plan. He played it. I figured either way, at that point, it was like, well, if I aim it at him, he's gonna reverse it. If I aim it at me, he might reverse it, he might not.

Wade Barnes
But I figured if I aim at him, no matter what, he would be like, no. I was kind of like, once I knew that there was handcuffs, it's like no matter what I played, it was gonna be a gamble. But at least if I ended it. Myself, you technically had a beer left, Wade. You could have chugged it.

I didn't. Once I ended it myself, I didn't think I could rack it after I said that. That's true. That's true. Let's go, loser.

Bob Muyskens
Beach first. Wade. You two in the subreddit have won. You guys have kept me out of the winner's circle thus far. But my time is coming, and when it does, according to one angry person, the subreddit, whose comment I did see, I will host another one of those just small talk episodes just to spite them.

Wade Barnes
So it's coming. Surprise. Nothing but small talk. And I'll be very angry and whiny and complain y during it. Sounds right.

I will somehow be upset about losing the episode I host. That would be impressive. That would be really quite a combo. I've decided that's the only way forward for me. Me.

Bob Muyskens
All right, good speech, Bob. How do you feel? That was fun. That's a fun game. I.

Mark Fischbach
So that is a game that exists. Is there a version of that where you can play against other humans or is it always against the AI? I don't know. Maybe. Maybe they're working on that.

That is a very fun, like, one v one here. You have to be on video chat, right? You can't, like, play one v one anonymously because then it doesn't matter. But, like, looking at Wade and seeing Tom talking shit and seeing the info and stuff, it was very fun. And I could see that a lot of funny scenarios coming up in that.

It was very good. That's a good game. I like the Uno reverse edition. That is fun, especially just for multiplayer. Version of it, but especially only Bob gets two of them, and I'm the whole time, like, sweating.

Wade Barnes
Like, dude, any decision I make with knowledge, these magnifying glasses are useless. Dude, you. You got a lot of good shit. You had a burner phone. You had magnifying glass.

Mark Fischbach
You had so much information. The burner was helpful. Cause you didn't know. But the magnifying glass glass, you know, I know the next round. So, like, that knowledge, when you have an uno reverse, I feel it kind of cancels out.

Wade Barnes
That's why I had to, like, try to mind play. It's an interesting item. Better than the stupid inverter. Who cares about that? That's dumb.

Bob Muyskens
Well, thank you, everybody, so much for watching and or listening. Please don't sue me, the creator of Buckshot roulette. This is a game available on Steam. And if there is a multiplayer mode, hey, that's great. If there's not, there should be, because apparently it's pretty fun.

And if you add in the uno reverse, hey, pay me money. Good luck. When you get sued by Uno, Uno. Is also gonna be like, hey, pay us money. All right, no one pay anybody any money except pay us money for merch@distractablestore.com.

check it out. Go there, check out the merch. Eventually, we'll have a constitution, a pocket constitution for you to keep in your breast. And then we'll all burn our constitutions and go back to the way things were before we changed. We'll see you on the boat.

All right, thank you. Check out Bob and Wade, wherever they are. I was gonna make, like, a godfather reference to the boat. Not Frodo. What's his name?

Mark Fischbach
He broke my heart, Frodo. You know what? It's Frodo. Frodo gets put down on the boat. Ah, you bagginses are all the same.

Wade Barnes
You broke my heart, Frodo. Okay, podcast out. What's that guy's name? Time flies. We blinked, and 2024 is halfway over.
