The dichotomy between Brandon's humble working class personality amidst ultra luxury experiences & staff has me giggling. Sorry he aint gonna spend 100k on gambling but thanks for the room. 🤣
First of all, our YT producer really appreciates the Sisters of Mercy reference! We also can't wait to hear what you think of the water flosser. Pro tip: use it in the shower! Enjoy your products!!
Don't forget the quotes, because "unpaid" intern Donald is actually a paid employee. Don't want Brandon getting hate from Wired for not paying his interns. ;)
Hey, now we know Ben's fake youtube account! ;) Yeah, they've dropped it a couple of times or changed it to another person, but that is their most persistent running gag.
I am a huge Penn & Teller fan, and I've had the privilege of watching them live. Penn has a weekly podcast too (Penn's Sunday School), Brandon you should definitely guest on it sometime.
The fact I love about Brandon is that he is at the same time so feets on the ground type of guy, not self-important. But then he manages to be at the same time such a decadent guy with his magic decks etc. It is awesome. I'm from Europe and it might not be decadent by US standards but rich people in Finland would never do something like that. You have to be a man of the people here.
Circ du soleil is always a good show wherever you can see it. In Atlanta I've seen a few. They put up a big circus tent and even the cheap seats were pretty amazing because of how small the tent was relative to an arena stage.
Is there any chance there will be another wave of Dragonsteel tickets in the future? Tons and tons of fans tried to get tickets right when they became available yesterday and weren't able to due to website issues and insane demand. We are so sad.
I'm very hopeful they will. Apparently they have previously. I'm one who was extremely excited for it but couldn't get a ticket so I'm right there with you
This happened 2 years ago during the Lost Metal Dragonsteel. He was able to acquire more space at the salt palace and opened up more tickets. The question is whether there is additional availability at the salt palace to expand into. It’s possible the rest of the venue is booked for other events….
Thanks for the dishonourable mentions. 😂😂😂 Shout out to Jamaica 🇯🇲 and Trinidad 🇹🇹 😅 😅 and to Mr. Corn Beef whose prices have skyrocketed, I bid you good day. 😂
I love this podcast but I really hate thinking about how poor I am and how I’ll seemingly never even get to see Vegas let alone stay in a nice Vegas hotel
First world problems I can totally relate to...I've passed through Vegas a few times, but saving up for trips to fun places takes me a couple of years.
Served a mission in the pacific in the Marshall Islands- one week i figured i must have missed the corn beef hash sale because i was fed it like 15 times over a 3 day period. Maybe the spoils of a Caribbean heist dumped in Ebeye?
@@myrojyn my wife was companions with a sister from Kiribati when she served in Atlanta, Georgia. If there are no tie-ins to Atlanta, I served in Santiago, Chile...where they are second only to Polynesians in the consumption of orange soda (anectodical, I have no real references for that other than Joe vs the Volcano and personal observation) lets keep this chain running.
Ahhhh my wife and I love staying at the Venetian too! Thanks for telling us what the presidential sweet is about that was really cool just hearing about haha 🤣
I’d consider Rob Zombie’s solo stuff to not even be “metal” (and definitely not “death metal”) but more “hard rock”. His earlier stuff from White Zombie is definitely in the “stoner-groove metal” like on La Sexorcisto, and before that, it was more of like a “thrash/hardcore punk”.
Brandon. Dan. Have either of you guys read any ergodic literature? I know the choose your own adventure style qualify, so the answer is technically yes, but there's some really cool other stuff out there like "Ella Minnow Pea". I think the out of the box thinking of this kind of literature would be a cool topic for a podcast episode. Maybe a bad story idea session requiring a silly/crazy ergodic style of writing that story. 😊 Thanks for all you guys do. I appreciate you both.
I know what you mean about minivans. It was ridiculously hard to find an affordable minivan after covid. We ended up buying a used Honda Odyssey before the third kid arrived but it took months to find an affordable one in stock.
We'll have to check out Omega Mart next time we're in Vegas. Sounds like a blast. Edit: I too like my Toyota Sienna. And we've seen Blue Man Group as well as a couple other shows. I got to see Penn & Teller back when I was at UC Davis, but I'd love to see them again.
Omega Mart is part of Meow Wolf. GRRM helped get the first Meow Wolf going in Santa Fe, NM. There’s a different story told in the Santa Fe location: a family trying to tap into a multiverse. I’ve been to meow wolf’s Santa Fe location a few times when guests come to town. It’s a good experience with some great visuals. I haven’t been to omega mart but it sounds fun
The cost for the corn beef is way off three pallets of corn beef is only 6000 pounds snacks but the way it's packaged means you're probably looking at a total of 4800 pounds So unless you're getting 400 bucks a pound for corn beef It's not even close maybe pesos
If Emily really needs screaming music, check out Motionless in White. Disguise is one of my favorites (warning - language! Captain A. would not approve!!)
Viva Floss Vegas... Sounds like a story of a Latin Dentist casanova named Jorge ("horr-hey") known among women to have the most beautiful teeth. And he says "Of course. Because I'm Jorge." And every time he says his name in 3rd person, you hear a Spanish guitar strum out of nowhere. The antagonists? Rival dental offices losing clients to him.
Now I'm all for stick it to the man, burn it down, red blooded revolutionary But it's important to understand who they're against and it's not Amazon. It's production companies like WB and Paramount and Universal, Not streaming companies like Amazon or Netflix. If everything goes well, The only difference you'll notice versus a more traditional Hollywood film is the logo at front and hopefully the script writing is a little better and the CGI is a little worse.
While the genre doesn't seem like one either of you are into, if you get a chance to see the Tedeschi Trucks Band, DO IT! Seriously, that's one of the few bands around today you would want to be able to say you saw them live in their prime twenty years later.
He has said multiple times that he’s not interested in animation for a Cosmere adaptation. Not to mention anime houses aren’t going to be interested in adapting a Western fantasy property from scratch.
The primary concern he has expressed with anime is its current cultural perception in the usa and uk. Being that it is either childish ie children's shows, or extremely vulgar like american dad or heluva boss
The first hundred or so episodes were generally between 45 and 60 minutes, but the last half year or so they've been setting a timer to make sure they don't go much past 35 minutes so that they record enough episodes on filming days to fill a schedule. 10 minutes here, 10 minutes there can add up to entire extra episodes being filmed on signing day. It's unlikely they have hour long episodes again unless they REALLY get into a topic.
I can't recall ever getting pissed at a Prius. Probably happened but don't remember it. BMW drivers, mini-vans, scooters and pickup trucks loaded down with beds/mattresses barely secured are far worse.
I think what they mean is that some car companies are moving away from having only a touch screen for all of the controls, instead using the touch screen as a supplemental feature while still having tactical interfaces for things like shifting gears and temperature control.

Both Brandon and Dan were both wearing blue collars
21:51 "Did you cry in the shower?" Loved the jab at the Wired article
ah I was wondering what that was referring
I laughed so hard at that 😭😭😭😭
😂
I was wondering what that was a reference to lol
First of all, our YT producer really appreciates the Sisters of Mercy reference! We also can't wait to hear what you think of the water flosser. Pro tip: use it in the shower! Enjoy your products!!
Dragonsteel x BURST collab anyone??
Best podcast yet. Working class Brandon is the man
"Did you cry in the shower?" 😂
Caught me off guard ngl
I laughed out loud at that
Dan was on fire this episode 😂
Dan’s sense of humor is hilarious and his writing is exactly this type of humor lol
Thank you to the dental group that keeps sending things to Dan. Your gifts and Dans reactions bring me a level of joy I didn't anticipate.
Truly a man of the people. The unpaid intern coming from a turborich family also helps to add to the vibe lol
Don't forget the quotes, because "unpaid" intern Donald is actually a paid employee. Don't want Brandon getting hate from Wired for not paying his interns. ;)
No mention of Ben at the end?
YOU HAD ONE JOB.
Hey, now we know Ben's fake youtube account! ;) Yeah, they've dropped it a couple of times or changed it to another person, but that is their most persistent running gag.
Spoilers dude!!
I love that the house took a gamble on Sanderson and totally lost! Way to beat the house in Vegas!
Yes... but they did upsell him on a 3x room that likely wouldn't have gone to anyone else that night. So they still won a little bit.
"But we are men of the people!" I'm laughing so hard rn!!! I love this podcast! Thanks everyone at Dragonsteel for keeping us entertained!! 🤣🤣🤣
Dentist here. The burst electric toothbrush is actually my favorite toothbrush.
1/1 dentist(s) recommend!
thoughts on the philips sonicare? that's what I have currently and so far I think it's great but would like a pro's opinion
@@gizzardgizzard3583 Philips Sonicare is great! My only issue with them is the price.

I look forward to this every week, you guys are awesome
I love Brandon's Christmas morning delight of the Presidential Suite.
That is the least amount of ice I have ever seen in one of Brandon's water glasses.
(A working-class amount of ice.)
Someone got fired.
So - new podcast title is "Men of the People." 😆

Was thinking about getting tickets to Dragonsteel but didn't realize they sold out so fast
If more tickets become available, how will he make the announcement? On his website?
This happened 2 years ago during the Lost Metal Dragonsteel. He was able to acquire more space at the salt palace and opened up more tickets.
The question is whether there is additional availability at the salt palace to expand into. It’s possible the rest of the venue is booked for other events….
I'm absolutely crushed to have not gotten tickets, and REALLY hoping they come out with more
Thanks for the dishonourable mentions. 😂😂😂 Shout out to Jamaica 🇯🇲 and Trinidad 🇹🇹 😅 😅 and to Mr. Corn Beef whose prices have skyrocketed, I bid you good day. 😂

Just steal some corned beef!
same, love the podcast, also makes me a bit depressed cause I'm poor. xD
Wish they could carve out an hour for the podcast. I think it would be the perfect amount.
I just learned last year that Rob Zombie made a bunch of horror movies. Some of which being zombie related. Love the commitment to the bit.
He was the one behind the Munsters movie from a couple years ago, and apparently it was a dream project of his because he loved the tv show
Brandon is Trazyn the Infinite and Dan is Orikan the Divine. Can't unsee it.
"Sanderson, you idiot! You bought us front seats to a Coup!"
Yep, I hear it.
Lordi: awesome themed Finnish hair metal band.
Served a mission in the pacific in the Marshall Islands- one week i figured i must have missed the corn beef hash sale because i was fed it like 15 times over a 3 day period. Maybe the spoils of a Caribbean heist dumped in Ebeye?

Ahhhh my wife and I love staying at the Venetian too! Thanks for telling us what the presidential sweet is about that was really cool just hearing about haha 🤣
Adoooonalsium
I love going to Vegas for Penn & Teller, and Guy Savoy.
You guys should watch the Spy x Family movie as there's a food heist in it.
I really want Meow Wolf who made Omega Mart to help design the inside of the Sanderson book store someday
And fun fact Meow Wolf was funded by George RR Martin
Thst was one of the funniest episodes yet.
Any new secret Project? When ever you go MIA you come up with a new book ^.^

hearing another person sharing the same love for rick astleys new songs that i have for the first time ever had me popping out of my chair

Caribbean Corned beef Capers! A new sub-genre of food heists
Brandon calling Rib Zombie death metal adjacent....oh my.
"Brandon Sanderson: Man of the People"
I'd read that (auto)biography. 😂
Rick Astley for the Super Bowl half time…but everyone thinks they are there to see the weeknd
LOVE System of a Down
As a metalhead, it's so adorable to hear Brandon say Rob Zombie is death metal adjacent
I thought the same thing haha. I don't feel any type of way, though, because I know he would take the correction in good stride.
Gotta tell you…I wasn’t a huge Alice cooper fan but I saw him a few months ago and he was incredible. Really great performer.
Where is my "how's that Ben"?
I know what you mean about minivans. It was ridiculously hard to find an affordable minivan after covid. We ended up buying a used Honda Odyssey before the third kid arrived but it took months to find an affordable one in stock.
I went to Ka in Vegas and that show is amazing. Highly recommend.
LMAO I work as a dishwasher and I drive a Prius
Didn't ask "How's that Ben?"
I feel like the entire time Brandon was describing “Omega World,” Dan was just thinking “man, I’m too old for this crap” lol
The sheer disappointment of Sanderson's perfect concert being the trust fund kid hipster experience.
We'll have to check out Omega Mart next time we're in Vegas. Sounds like a blast.
Edit: I too like my Toyota Sienna. And we've seen Blue Man Group as well as a couple other shows. I got to see Penn & Teller back when I was at UC Davis, but I'd love to see them again.
Great ep
Books need playlists
I went to the Zombie/Cooper concert, and without knowing much about Cooper, I enjoyed his concert more. It was more theatrical and entertaining.
Right now, it is probably easier to find a Ferrari than a hybrid Sienna.
Learning that Adam has listened to goth music made my day
@Dan Wells add Concrete Blonde - Bloodletting to your vampire playlist.
Brandon listens to SOAD confirmed 🤩🤩🤩
Who doesn't? I was shocked about a year ago when my then 13 year old niece sent me a video asking "do you like these guys?" it was SOAD Sugar
Yeah!!!!! system of a down was my jam back in the day

Brandon, Megadeth is coming to town August 17th...get on it Dan!
Vampire: the Masquerade Bloodlines' soundtrack is a pretty good soundtrack for the tabletop as well
I can’t say that I think Rob Zombie is “good”. But man…he’s got some BANGERS.
Rob Zombies shows are fuqqing amazing!
I wonder how Ben is doing this week
I'm fine, nothing big this week. How are you?
I feel betrayed. I thought Brandon was a man of the people!
His whole vibe is "I'd rather be truckin'"
Have they covered the bear stealing the Reese’s?
The cost for the corn beef is way off three pallets of corn beef is only 6000 pounds snacks but the way it's packaged means you're probably looking at a total of 4800 pounds

Meow wolf!!!! Originated in New Mexico
Cannot believe these men think Rob Zombie is anywhere close to death metal 💀
Brandon, go see Zombie and Cooper! I saw Alice Cooper with Motley Crue years ago and it was an incredible show!
I would recommend any Circe de sole (sp?) show.
Viva Floss Vegas... Sounds like a story of a Latin Dentist casanova named Jorge ("horr-hey") known among women to have the most beautiful teeth. And he says "Of course. Because I'm Jorge."

What book are you signing. Looks like mistborn big I see no other words
Maybe if you do a live action of Stormlight you go with Mark Walberg's studio in Vegas instead of Amazon or Hollywood. Just a thought.
Now I'm all for stick it to the man, burn it down, red blooded revolutionary But it's important to understand who they're against and it's not Amazon. It's production companies like WB and Paramount and Universal, Not streaming companies like Amazon or Netflix.

hows that...ben...😢
can't believe he didn't stay at Excalibur which would be genre adjacent.
Commenting to ask Brandon to investigate the potential of Anime adaptations until he responds
Might genuinely be preferable
He has said multiple times that he’s not interested in animation for a Cosmere adaptation. Not to mention anime houses aren’t going to be interested in adapting a Western fantasy property from scratch.
What makes you think he hasn’t?
@@CoconutMigrating Sad day :(
The primary concern he has expressed with anime is its current cultural perception in the usa and uk.

How is 3 pallets of corned beef millions?
Week 25 of persistently asking for an Intentionally blank episode about Marching Band!
No way is 3 pallets of corn beef worth millions of dollars.
lol dragon steel 2024 brought to you by Burst get your teeth, clean faster😂
Let's goo!
when I saw the thumbnail I thought it was a video about alopecia
Mike Rowe is an opera singer?!?!?

Do you want a refund on your free entertainment?
WHAT ABOUT *BEN‽‽*
👍🏻
I'm pretty sure that when Brandon doesn't say "How's That Ben?" its completely purposeful and done just to annoy us.
All other drivers on the road despise prius drivers
I can't recall ever getting pissed at a Prius. Probably happened but don't remember it. BMW drivers, mini-vans, scooters and pickup trucks loaded down with beds/mattresses barely secured are far worse.
Concerts at The Depot are awesome, but we are all getting old. Take earplugs.
The house lost to Brandon Sanderson.
Posting daily untill u make a 1 hour podcast
Day 1
Day 2 of posting daily untill you make it a 1 hour podcast
wait, what? the new cars all have touch screens still, at least the ones that the car reviewers I watch are reviewing.
I think what they mean is that some car companies are moving away from having only a touch screen for all of the controls, instead using the touch screen as a supplemental feature while still having tactical interfaces for things like shifting gears and temperature control.
They forgot to say "how's that, Ben?" WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH BRANDON AND DAN????
Please Brandon, please listen to an artist named Ren. Hi Ren is a good start
Ren Is awesome. Second this recommendation, but for "Hey Ren" you want to watch the music video for the experience
@@hevensarmada this would be a dream to see these to together.
Brandon please spend your money on useless products and review them
