Austin: I'm actually quite the hater, wouldn't you agree? Mem: I don't think so, no. Austin: No, I don't think so either, I'm actually quite upbeat. I love this podcast.
i totally relate to needing definitive rejection of a fear i have about how ppl perceive me from someone i trust "im this bad thing, arent i (pls say no)?" "nope ur not" "oh thank god i agree"
Okay so new podcast was close to heart. I was fit and totally normal. Then I had a battle with POTS for two years and couldn't even stand up to do the dishes or at worst sit up in bed without fainting. Every day. Not an exaggeration. I had a partner that was constantly telling me I wasn't trying hard enough to not be sick. They were a nurse and were upset that they couldn't fix me. I was in and out of hospitals with numerous tests done. The answers I got, "It has no cure and sometimes it just goes away. But it can also come back". Well as suddenly as it came it went away 2 years later. I'm better now and am only mildly annoyed but a fast HR. Mem I'm glad that it didn't evolve into something worse and your blood pressure from raising your arms was mostly the extent of it. Glad that you're okay. It's definitely a real and terrible thing.
Axios found that 41% of voters under 30 supported Luigi. So definitely not 1%, and you've got to assume it's an underestimate bc some ppl don't want the feds knocking their door down
Mem! I found your channel a few months ago and I'm a fellow PhD dropout who finds your channel hilarious with great vibes. I appreciate the cleaning routine I've heard that Comet stuff works well. I've been cracking up about being too full of ravioli to do math for days. Keep it up!
The weirdest thing happened yesterday as my fam was talking about movies. Brendan Fraser came up; and my dad literally was talking about how weird it is how many of his earlier movies were about him being a found freak. But we did manage to mention George of the jungle at the end. Lol.
I'm sorry but the image of Mem just swimming and flipping for the ENTIRE intro while Austin is just calmly sitting and watching is fucking s e n d i n g me 😂 it's so illustrative of the different kinds of energy y'all bring into this together and how it still works
only as a Tacoma-Narrows-Bridge-style situation that never actually gets answered but always gets teased for the next episode but otherwise, a man is entitled to his personal mysteries 😤
At this point I am happy with the intro being an ongoing discussion about whether or not there should be a standardized intro. Great video, loved the discussions. Always entertained by the conversations and chance to hear more from the two of you! Looking forward to the next one ◡̈
Very pro discussion on health insurance ceos and what is to be done with them, but it’s probably best to stick to the innocent till proven guilty thing with the accused 😅
I don't typically like talking directly to creators in comments if there's already over 100 comments, or if the video is more than like 2 days old. it has slight sad and lonely energy to have it unanswered, and it's unreasonable to expect a creator to answer you when there's so many others, or if the immediate release window has passed
adding to the bathroom cleaning conversation, hydrogen peroxide spray can be great at removing mildew/"pink mold" from bathroom walls. I moved into a room where their bathroom had poor air circulation and had never been cleaned and it made the walls the right color for at least 3 months. and to avoid melting a whole tub or disintegrating an entire wall, take an extra day to test the new chemical on a small part behind the door or something in case it has unintended effects. at least that's what I always do, always open to learn more
Adding rubbing alcohol and/or peroxide to regular dish soap (and water) makes a way cheaper " Dawn power wash" dupe instead of buying refills for the sprayer. It actually does replace multiple cleaning products like the commercials say too. Peroxide is an incredible chemical.
I agree that if you pay for an empty middle seat it is totally ethical. In fact, you are actively improving the other person in your row's flight as well, assuming you aren't going to be a total butthole about them using the armrest for the middle seat. As for passing out when your arms are above your head, my guess is that your heart has to work harder to get your blood pumping into your arms against gravity, and then your blood pressure drops? Something like that.
Goddd the 'it's like watching a baboon' comment. They were so apologetic about it in the comments after Mem mentioned it that I didn't want to bring it up again on those streams, but I think about that so often. Baboon is like the single funniest word to use when genuinely mad at someone and I use it all the time now.
So i'm curious on the route everyone took to get here. I started with Gameranx years and years ago, which brought me to the Friends Per Second podcast when that started. The FPS podcast had NakeyJakey as a guest host one time. In one of his videos he recommended Austins channel. Austin's collabs with Mem, then that one comment brought me here.
I found Austin from searching Fallout content a few months ago. Found Mem from his channel a day ago, and found this channel in my feed later on after watching stuff from them both.
Austin: The only time I passed out was in a doctor's office. Me who can't even handle people talking about talking about medical procedures: *Passes out in anticipation*
very fun villain-era laugh from empathy coordinator Mem @ 32:30 edit: truly hoping the metrics for this video show the most replayed part is Mem giving bathroom cleaning advice
I had a holiday booked with a girlfriend but she ended up breaking up with me a couple of weeks later. She was nice about it though, still gave me the money for her half of the flights, and I still went on that holiday but as the seat was in her name, I got a free seat next to me both ways! So protip: get a partner, book a holiday way too early into the relationship to be healthy, then break up so you can bypass the whole name and details thing, and also get pity from the airline so they won't ask any questions! If you're extra lucky you might even get a free drink out of it.
Please actually show us the retention data for the "bathroom tips with Mem"-segment. I know I am an outlier in that I actually downloaded the video and wrote down all the cleaners and taking notes on it, but I'm very sure I am not the only one in this specific audience who is excited by these cleaning tips. @AnyAustin I'm sure your assessment would be 100% correct if we were talking about the general TH-cam audience, but with the fascination for little details that you two have and share in your videos, I think a large portion of your viewership will have watched and listened to this segment with the same interest as the rest of the podcast.
I knew exactly what Austin was getting at with the CAD bit. And I knew that Mem was totally going to miss the joke, and it was such a funny bit. I feel like it was a very niche bit for who would get it. A news nerd, and then a nerd who knows mems channel. LOL 🤣
Mem, get a magic eraser sponge - or some no-name equivalent. It's a melamine foam, so it's in the form of a sponge, but the material itself is stupid hard and it just scrapes crap off at a microscopic level. They're so cool. I bet they'd mess up your plastic tub but you will figure out what stuff they suit organically.
Wisconsite here. Let me help out. We don't have a lot of individual slang words, per se. There aren't even many people who say "bubbler," but another one like that is "pop" for soda. We do say "ope" as a general case word like "ope, sorry about that," or "ope, let me sneak right past ya there." It's more that we have phrases that are unique. For example, you'll hear people say "go by" to mean "visit." As in, "I'll go by the store on my way home." And to be non-intrusive while asking for a favor, you end a sentence in "once." Like, "can you go by the Kwik Trip and grab me a coffee once?" In a similar vein, ending a sentence with "or no?" (pronounced "er" no) to give people an out. "Want to go by the bar on the way home? Or no?" The whole "yeah no," "no yeah," "yeah no yeah," "no yeah no," thing is pretty real, but I feel like that happens way more places than Wisconsin. Maybe it's just more frequent here? You also get phrases like "aw geez," pronounced more like "ah" geez. "Oh for cripes sake," is another one. There are a bunch of other small things that are fairly descriptive of things we have here. Like going "up nort'," which is mostly going north of Rhinelander. Or ways to describe the quality of cheese curds, i.e., whether or not they're squeaky when you bite them. Nothing too far out there or hard to interpret, mostly just speech patterns you don't hear other places.
Hey Mem, not trying to diagnose you, but you might want look into POTS disease. I have mild POTS and stopped my fainting spells just by consuming more salt and electrolytes!
Little things she mentioned in other videos gave me the same thought! So this title was like, red flag. (I got diagnosed via tilt table earlier this year; a lifetime of lightheadedness when standing, (pre-)syncope, occasional racing heart, exercise fatigue... Turns out -- not normal for most people! Really got worse this year, but compression clothing + salty electrolyte drinks has helped.) Oh man, I just got to the bit where holding her arms above makes her faint.... Yeah, a knowledgeable PCP, cardio, or neurologist can hopefully rule out or confirm what's behind that, but it sounds familiar! Also, bc comorbidities: maaaaaybe read up on hypermobility if not EDS (as a not-double-jointed kid, 7/9 on the Beighton in my 40s... >_>) Wish I'd known when I was younger, so trying to share knowledge.
@@pooka7254 I'm glad you figured it out!! Because of POTS I always thought I just couldn't work out when I was younger because I would pass out or at least get the heart racing and nausea. After figuring out I just need salt and to gradually up my cardio, I'm now an amateur boxer and am in the gym basically every day 🥊
@@alanarasche1497 Oh, that's awesome for you, grats! I had rehab for my shoulder and recently got the go-ahead to gently return to bouldering & swimming (w/ others around just in case), and I am excited to get my cardio work back up. I *have* to be careful since my hypermobility (& ADHD) means that I can easily push farther than safe, so I've got to be mindful in new ways, but at least now I know I have condition(s), what causes symptoms, & ways to manage. (If only I could ever remember to do the CHOPS protocol the neuro suggested, oops. Ah well.) I've also got a script from the cardio on tap to bring my heartrate down so I can actually, y'know, build endurance, but progress is progress. Right now, my big goal is to get back to at least once a week at the climbing gym; baby steps. Your success is encouraging, thank you for sharing!
@@ganjagremlin True. There can be many different causes. Sorry, I am inherently long-winded and particularly interested in physical & mental health, so... These symptoms can show up with nigh anything, but (as a cluster, with consistency) the most common causes are deficiencies in B or D vitamins or iron, certain medications (which can block absorption of or actively deplete nutrients!, esp antidepressants, oral contraceptives, & heart meds), or neurological or cardiological conditions. Kinda generally ~handwave~, issues with blood circulation. I have all those symptoms -- my iron levels are seemingly normal, but my Vitamin D is deficient (which can be a cause itself, or in association with dysautonomia.) So I take 5000 IU of Vit D3 daily, and just get iron from my diet. But with my version of POTS, symptoms are mostly a result of low blood volume and high heartrate; salt & electrolytes help the former, and then cardio amends the latter by strengthening my heart & circulation, which is generally good but also lowers my heartrate. My blood pressure is low, but consistent, however that can be *another* factor causing said symptoms associated with poor circulation. But iron is def worth looking into if you're a non-meat-eater and lacking in leafy greens, nuts, etc. (I was def not the best at a balanced diet when I was pisco-ovo-lacto, but that's me...) Iron deficiency anemia is functionally similar to (or the same as) low blood volume seen in dysautonomias, because you just don't have enough red blood cells scooting around to do their jobs. Bodies Are Weird. But this is why finding a good PCP is worth it, to work through possibilities.
About bathroom tips. Some people keep cleaning supplies in the shower so they can clean the shower with their clothes off and then take a shower to clean themselves. It streamlines the process a bit. Though it sounds like it would be bad for your respitory system. I think cleaning is kinda fricked up because you need to clean your tools after cleaning. Like, if you wanna hammer a nail you don't have to do anything to the hammer after using it.
bubbler and ope (as in "ope lemme sneak right past ya") are the only words i can think of that are pretty specific to wisconsin, other than that we just be pronouncing stuff funny. like saying ta instead of to, and melk instead of milk
"did you stay for the cleaning tips?" is now the first question I'm asking any potential new friends. I don't have many years left on this planet, and you're not gonna catch me wasting precious time befriending folks with icky bathrooms
Chemicals: - Common bathroom cleaner with citric acid. - Blue glue hydrochloride acid. Tips: - Spray around scrub with a sponge let it sit scrub it again rince sponge paper towel. - Walls micro fiber cloths picks up dust and it doesn't leave it behind. - Shower glass let sit scrub it. - Vacuum before cleaning. I tried, chat.
so weird being able to picture the exact sad riteaid (that’s a 15 minute walk from my house, and now also extremely closed). the way things shift as you approach market on 40th is kind of mind-boggling
jokes on you I listen to the retention reducing segments just as much, maybe even relisten a few times and skip around just to mess up your statistics.
i vote for mem greeting austin politely like a human being and austin just barreling into the conversation
I second this
this option feels the most mutually authentic
She’s greeting us, not him!!
austin reminding her they already greeted each other and doing so again would inauthentic and changing the topic
Austin's sigh in response to networking is such a vibe
The SOLID 3 second pause after “He can be insane *and* based” absolutely sent me
Austin: I'm actually quite the hater, wouldn't you agree?
Mem: I don't think so, no.
Austin: No, I don't think so either, I'm actually quite upbeat.
I love this podcast.
i totally relate to needing definitive rejection of a fear i have about how ppl perceive me from someone i trust
"im this bad thing, arent i (pls say no)?"
"nope ur not"
"oh thank god i agree"
I, for one, appreciate the bathroom cleaning segment. Tuesdays are now officially podcast and bathroom deep clean days
I'm team keep doing an intro where one of you is tries to intro and the other one just keeps yappin
timestamp for the highly requested mem's bathroom cleaning tips segment: 53:15

My personal retention rate jumped 300% for the bathroom cleaning section
when mem talked about bathroom cleaning i sat my ass down and listened
true 🙏
Axios found that 41% of voters under 30 supported Luigi. So definitely not 1%, and you've got to assume it's an underestimate bc some ppl don't want the feds knocking their door down
Everyone watch mem's cleaning tips segment multiple times so we restore Austin's faith in us.
Mem! I found your channel a few months ago and I'm a fellow PhD dropout who finds your channel hilarious with great vibes. I appreciate the cleaning routine I've heard that Comet stuff works well. I've been cracking up about being too full of ravioli to do math for days. Keep it up!
I can't believe that the "find a freak" movie conversation led you to Brendan Fraser but not to George of the Jungle
at the end of the day you gotta take a leaf outta Austin's book and find your own freak 😤
The weirdest thing happened yesterday as my fam was talking about movies. Brendan Fraser came up; and my dad literally was talking about how weird it is how many of his earlier movies were about him being a found freak. But we did manage to mention George of the jungle at the end. Lol.
@@crocutaqueen1311 Oh man, he was in Blast to the Past too, wasn't he.
Being a freak that gets found really was his 90s niche typecast, wasn't it.
It's ok Austin, I knew where you were going with the 3D Printer lmao
Mem should put a branded microfiber cloth in her store
I'm sorry but the image of Mem just swimming and flipping for the ENTIRE intro while Austin is just calmly sitting and watching is fucking s e n d i n g me 😂
it's so illustrative of the different kinds of energy y'all bring into this together and how it still works
Yeah this was very representative of the ying-yang energy they give to the podcast lol
To where are youm being sent?
@@eqwerewrqwerqre it's slang for being "sent" to a place of laughter
she's doing her post-palates aquatic stretches so she doesn't pull a hammie
I bet you guys would get a bump in views if you teased a future episode where Austin finally addresses the hair clips he wears in his videos
only as a Tacoma-Narrows-Bridge-style situation that never actually gets answered but always gets teased for the next episode
but otherwise, a man is entitled to his personal mysteries 😤
I think it's just a fashion choice. Who cares
@@cornjeebus I don't _care_ exactly, but I'm mildly curious if it's fashion or utility. I guess because I can relate to utilitarian hair strategies.
At this point I am happy with the intro being an ongoing discussion about whether or not there should be a standardized intro.
Great video, loved the discussions. Always entertained by the conversations and chance to hear more from the two of you! Looking forward to the next one ◡̈
Very pro discussion on health insurance ceos and what is to be done with them, but it’s probably best to stick to the innocent till proven guilty thing with the accused 😅
love that mem is just zoopin around for like 75% of the ep
austin: "is it possible they just have no culture"
mem: "they have cheese curds"
as in... **cultured** milk??
Underrated joke
my adhd was really fucking with mem’s constant nonstop forward(?) backflips. got me #focused and #lockedin
i really like this comment
thank you 🦦
53:17 I want the graph to show how I slowed down to 0.85x for the bathroom tips 😂
I tuned out to fuck with the retention graph
if yall can talk and game at the same time, a powerwash sim episode would be peak. esp if theres a bathroom level
Mem and Austin, I just want you both to know you are squad goals for the left and right halfs of my brain
I don't typically like talking directly to creators in comments if there's already over 100 comments, or if the video is more than like 2 days old. it has slight sad and lonely energy to have it unanswered, and it's unreasonable to expect a creator to answer you when there's so many others, or if the immediate release window has passed
I do feel it's important to recognize Luigi is innocent until proven guilty. Key feature of our shitty justice system.
They say that, but rotting in jail indefinitely until your court date is actually closer to "guilty until proven guilty"
Mem and Austin-I would listen to you two talk about whatever the hell you’re going to talk about because I appreciate your chill vibes. Much love.
i think you guys should start making 90 min episodes since you always have more to say and i love listening to you guys

Peroxide is an incredible chemical.
52:42 for the discussion about Mem's cleaning tips, prove Austin wrong! :D
I can't wait for the games you guys are in to get more and more obscure each episode
00:23 wonderful flip I can tell this podcast is gonna be a good one.
😂
I hope we get more than ten, this is gold!
me too!
High effort swimming in a full-length gown is such a power move
The increasingly esoteric online 2000s social games being used goes crazy
im dying at austin just sitting there talking and mem doing flips.
I agree that if you pay for an empty middle seat it is totally ethical. In fact, you are actively improving the other person in your row's flight as well, assuming you aren't going to be a total butthole about them using the armrest for the middle seat.
As for passing out when your arms are above your head, my guess is that your heart has to work harder to get your blood pumping into your arms against gravity, and then your blood pressure drops? Something like that.
Sweatpants Gordon Freeman watching unicorn head Mem do perfect front-stroke-plank-backflips is positively CRACKLING with raw energy
Austin: "This better not be a slur"
Mem: "I don't think it is"
Very reassuring there 🤣
mem pls bathroom cleaning full google doc in description 😭
I think I played this game daily before my brain was fully formed and it slapped 😂
Austin's avatar looks like a glamour filter version of him, lol.
Genuinely excited about the bathroom tips. Thank you, Mem! Also, thoroughly enjoying this every week

Intro? No intro? I don’t really care. I’m just here cause I love you guys
WHAT ABOUT finding a freak romances specifically? Splash or 5th Element? a genre to consider... falling in love with the freak
At some point I'd like to see Austin move his character in one of these, maybe just a little bit.
That's what I get for commenting before the end, like a goof.

Literally here for the bathroom cleaning tips.
mem has anyone ever told you you look like a unicorn
Everyone's gangster until the person in the 3rd seat puts their bag down first and you have to be like "Um, Actually I bought that seat"
Holding your arms above your head reduces your ability to intake oxygen. Could explain a part of the fainting

Also one time a phlebotomist told me I have beautiful veins and I got why he was saying it, but it was still a weird thing to say.

@@TheNerdLemon the fact that Mem didn't get it made the whole bit funnier for me honestly, top tier
The fainting is likely Dysautonomia. My wife has the exact same symptoms.
You mean the alleged shooter. Gotta see what the court says before making that judgement.
I love the direct discord intro idea
