Are We Too Old for Conventions? | The Geekenders Ep 45

[@LadyUsakoB]

Yo its the weekend!

[@Anothy]

Even better, it's a long weekend in Canada. :)

[@LadyUsakoB]

Fellow Canadian! *high fives* :3

[@Mak67]

i make a habbit of liking this comment (whoever is writing it) at the same time as MegaRan says it. :)

[@crendor]

Thanks for finally getting me on the show. I’ve seen you guys on the internet a few times but was awesome getting to sit down and chat for the first time

[@mantrix8]

Yo Crendor! Have you seen Dodger?

[@moneyman2595]

Love having you on!

[@Misstajay]

This gives me co-optional flashbacks🫣😅

[@thacoldfate]

your 100% right Arcane is so overrated only good part of it was heimerdinger

[@goodjoejoe]

It's the Crend-optional Coxcast!

[@Burred11]

Crendor at any time completely unprompted: *shameless plugins at any opportunity Crendor when asked to introduce himself: *Completely stunned at what to say

[@user-bt2od3yw1b]

"TB told me my arms were 2 Dimensional" Crendor haha xD

[@ActiœnMan]

And then he proceeded to z snap lol😂

[@Toastybob]

Geekenders needs a special Crendor intro at this point

[@Salmon_Samurai]

The regular intro, but played by Jesse on a recorder.

[@ChuckPickle]

And crendor sings it lmao

[@ryanthomas471]

@@Salmon_Samurai To not overplay the joke, I think just converting the sax at the end to a kazoo rendition would be tastefully exquisite.

[@MrsCainam]

I’ll never skip a Crendor episode. It’s like getting together with gamer buddies I’ve known for well over a decade and never have enough time to catch up.

[@Wacheif]

Couldn't agree more, it'll usually lead me to re-watching old co-optional podcasts.

[@Marin22427]

THEY DID IT!!! THEY STARTED A BEEF... with Crendor.

[@CrowColdblade]

The beefenders strike again!

[@Setliin]

we should have all guessed this is the timeline we was in

[@tymmezinni]

It's more like a tofu... fake beef.

[@ellog100]

Monkey's paw

[@Hollowassasin]

im taking dodgers side here, in the many years i have never put together machine cinema

[@miguelnewmexico8641]

im not gonna get on anyone's case for not knowing that, but i gotta wonder what the heck else could it have meant?

[@jimjam7928]

@@miguelnewmexico8641 I always thought it meant something along the lines of "machine animation".

[@Winterbay]

​@@miguelnewmexico8641I never even thought it was supposed to be anything other than its own word 😂 Literally never crossed my mind.

[@LooseCo]

Same as above. It never occurred to me it was a mashup of two words, I just saw it as its own word

[@thefleetcat]

I'd always thought it was something Japanese...

[@HUmungy]

God, miss TB so much. Almost brought to tears by listening to them. Missed the interruptions and the comments by our old brit friend.

[@gabrieleomaggio1461]

49:34 OMG this brought me back to the TGS days, when that one cursed episode was cut short because the fire alarm at Jesse's house went off 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@MultiMelodia]

Or when Jesse's screen turned into a cutesy drawing of a bee with his face on it after his housekeeper videobombed the podcast. So many moments that will forever live rent-free in my brain. 😂

[@haikaido]

Damn I miss TB. I gotta go back and watch those old co-optional podcasts again.

[@Matt561]

Always

[@Moewenfels]

I miss him too.

[@jefp65]

Same.

[@tinybee7780]

I can definitely buy Jesse and Crendor being spitting images of Pain and Panic from Disney's Hercules. Didn't even realize we were supposed to have a different guest for today. Crendor being the fill-in guest makes so much sense. I'm glad that the supposed guest for today is doing okay. Stay safe out there to the people who are weathering the storm. Lots of crazy stories coming from this one.

[@DrAustinSauce]

Crendor is my spirit animal. When the sloth is out of the Zoo, he goes wild at a very medium pace.

[@matthewmacomber6278]

21:45 Microwaving the flour can make it safe to use for no-bake recipes! I do it in 15 or 30 second intervals and stir in between for a minute and 30 seconds total.

[@Jasonwolf1495]

For a second I got so shocked and surprised by Crendor's opinions on Arcane, but then I remembered its Crendor and his views on League are entirely about the mechanical game.

[@moviematt2480526]

That fire alarm 😂 I had to check to make sure mine wasn’t going off. Lol

[@jacobirving8999]

Hey guys. I’ve tooned out for about five years. When space marine 2 dropped I had to look up TB’s review. Without opening too many wounds I just want to say how happy I am you’re still here. I can’t wait to see your next video.

[@StephenIC]

I love how often Crendor mentions TB.

[@TheJaegersHunt]

ITS THE WEEKEND

[@MrZenzio]

Crendor: "This man needs help." Waits two months to tell anybody.

[@BluishGnome]

I love when Crendor is the guest because after all these years following these guys, it’s just like being at a friends party where things just click in a weird and indescribable way 😊

[@KikiMofo]

I always appreciate how hard Crendor can go on about something and defend it to the death and then the next minute completely throw it away because he decides he doesn't care anymore. Amazing arguer.

[@DeeDeeGeeTX]

I met all three of you at PAX South and went to every single one until it was cancelled. The first few years were great with the amount of new games being shown but that continued to decrease over the years. I went with a big group of friends so still had a blast at every one of them. RIP PAX South

[@rudicornVA]

Every year I did end up going was a blast and glad I got to see these goofballs live at some point

[@Stones223]

Let's go it's Cox and Crendor with Dogs!!!👏👏👏

[@StuartRobertson-y4n]

Didnt see a single dog

[@ShepherdDruid]

That was Dodger's brain leaking from her nose after trying to rationalize with Crendor

[@Rufio20008]

Ah yes. The crendor podcast with soecial guests Jesse and Dodger

[@muncherofbiscuits]

49:33 I can't believe we got to see on camera how the office burned down!

[@Yokiehee]

19:33 That was a good clip. Thanks for looking it up Jesse!

[@littlemissevel3607]

Jesse talking about attracting people, reminded me. One time i was in london with my friends as a teenager. On an incredibly packed street. And this man stood out 1. because he was pretty tall and 2. because everyone else was trying to get somewhere and he was standing still watching people. I thought idk what he's selling but i don't have the energy to deal with it. Do not make eye contact! I saw him hone in on me and smile. He somehow managed to get really close and was like 'excuse me! 😄' Norm i'd be like 'No thanks' but I was mid sentence to my friend so i kept walking and didn't reply. Then when i was about 6ft away i heard him behind me - having a complete breakdown... 'OH! - SHE'S -- DEAF!!!!' I could hear him shouting until i went underground...😬 So that was something.

[@Erthos2sw]

Jesse and Dodger deserve an award for how seriously they treated Crendor as someone they had never met before. LOL

[@Hel1mutt]

crendor selling himself is so funny lol edit: Crendor is insane

[@AngelavengerL]

I've really missed Jesse's five minute gaming news and of course the crenminute. Soo happy this had the section with game news and new game releases! Please keep that as a regular part of the show.

[@D-Corporation]

The fire alarm scared the crap out of me. 😂😂😂 I had my speaker on doing some chores and I was ready to run lmao.

[@Rayweo]

YO ITS THE WEEKEND!

[@justine11012]

The "roll the clip" bits were so funny

[@patu8010]

I was secretly hoping Jesse would actually put in all the clips. But it would've been so much work to find them.

[@Champion_of_Eorzia]

There is going to be an internet archivist who will remember everyone on this podcast for strange reasons. Crendor for his pokemon twitch streams, Jesse for his patreon board game videos, and Dodger for her farm. "And for some strange reason, they were friends."

[@Nokomak]

I agree with Dodger. Never once thought Machinima is supposed to mean machine cinema. Never crossed my mind and I usually notice these kinds of things.

[@JoshSweetvale]

1:07:00 Redheads are known colloquially as lighthouses in Dutch. "Vuurtoren" Cuz of the fire-hair, to speak Tormund for a moment.

[@jasminvomwalde7497]

How cool is that 😎

[@MrUn1versal]

I thought Jesse's fire alarm was mine, so i was panicking until they finally acknowledged it

[@benhagstrom2185]

Wow: "I will show you the justice of the grave, and the tr-" Crendor: "blah blah skip. Lol why is everyone dead and on fire? Anyway..."

[@Moewenfels]

I LOVE how the Wrathgate is such a pivotal moment for people getting super interested in lore. Except for Cren Cren ofc.

[@user-bt2od3yw1b]

That fire alarm was literally Deja Vu from an old TGS episodes with Larry Bundy Jr haha xD

[@Mojijoji219]

Damn near broke the sound barrier with how fast I click on this vid in my sub box. Crendor vids are always quality.

[@1kFaces]

I need an edit where the clips actually roll every time they're called for.

[@alexanderkurz1603]

i saw a short of it :D kzbin.infoXnC1REi6CAw it's even on jesse's channel :D MY MAN

[@AeonWest]

I'm a week late but damn I'm so glad you are lifting unknown channels up

[@fang_xianfu]

Its especially true in the UK that eating the flour is worse than the eggs, because the UK Lion Mark program means eggs are very very safe.

[@TheBlueSuperDude]

In Dodger's defence Bread with cheese broiled on top is the best type of toast one can have, stick some salami under that before broiling, put a slice of tomato on top after , salt pepper and youve got me hooked

[@Starfals]

I see Crendor, i click to watch :D I do miss the good old days with TB tho, I didn't realize you guys had a new podcast going again

[@muja_bunny]

I can't believe they got THE Crendor .... A FIFTH TIME!

[@Snarfie]

Yeah they got him to wake up in the morning for the fifth time, it's actually unreal

[@davidlucas4051]

Crendor is that friend that you absolutely hate playing anything story based with if it's your first time through a game.

[@ThoughtIncorrectly]

Crendor should eat the Starry Night painting. What bigger goof is there then introducing a Starry Night to a black hole?

[@heavynorse7746]

Crendor brought the tea in this episode!

[@jimjam7928]

25:30 I just about cringed out of my soul. Poor Dodger.

[@jimjam7928]

Also you know how bad LoL is to someone's psyche when you see how Crendor goes from being the chilled, permanently stoned dude, to being super argumentative with whatever Jesse brought up.

[@Starfals]

Haha, i just finished the Kevin Sorbo Hercules, its AMAZING LOL. I love how he always says something I think about real life - Its never easy ;p

[@nickball4071]

DISSSSSAAAAAAAAAAPPOINTTEDDDDDD

[@raistlinmajere5550]

Crendor really is proof goblins exist and the jokes on Jessie i love Kevin Sorbo Hercules

[@iJamJo]

25:33 i feel like that didn't sit too well with dodger

[@j0kerclash289]

Yeah, I don't think Crendor picked up on how it would feel to have your partner openly not appreciate you, especially after Jesse brought up a prior instance of her trying to do something nice for him, and having it dismissed and insulted. Jesse tried to damage control by bringing up league, since League does put you in a shitty mood sometimes, but Crendor was digging the hole deeper by minimising league's impact on a person's mood.

[@jimjam7928]

I mean... yeah. Do you blame her? Pretty shitty of her husband to have said that, and not great that Crendor brought it up either.

[@oddfox_6530]

Yeah, Jesse definitely picked up on that and bailed them out of that conversation despite Crendor's best efforts to blunder on into it. :/

[@Apjooz]

@jimjam7928 The fans should back off, it's like they are instigating for the person to say something horrible for drama. Personally speaking I'm often in the life is only suffering mode, doesn't mean I don't appreciate other people.

[@JaziB]

You know you're an OG Co-Optional Podcast fan when you've heard the paranormal panel story for like the 5th time.

[@kunafox]

I'm thankful that Jesse still goes to some of the conventions, fanfest 2023 highlight for me was dawntrail annoucement and meeting Jesse completely at random! But I also feel like, need more activities or more mixed content than just one sole game event.

[@MrSHADOWANGEL999]

Never to old to enjoy the things you enjoy

[@lycos94]

I'm with dodger, I had no idea machinima stood for ''machine cinema'' either

[@ryanmcintee]

TB would be glad the 3 of you still do this

[@AKA_Tari]

Finally caught up and it's to this great episode.

[@The_Sir_Goose]

Callisto in Xena was also an awakening for me, Jesse. I thought this was a universal experience. 😂

[@user-bt2od3yw1b]

I wish Crendor was the third host. Always a great dynamic between the 3 of you :)

[@Uberphish]

"That's why they made Yasuo's brother, because people kept banning Yasuo!" - Crendor As a League lore fan, I am unsurprised by this outlook, and yet still incensed by it :P Also, Arcane's getting Warwick, Viktor, and Singed! That's an unprecedented number of weirdos! Crendor is a fool (about this particular thing)!

[@CymruJedi]

Crendor really is the podcast period

[@TheCrippledHalfling]

Crendor was in top form this episode omg.

[@manemanera]

You have no idea how jarring it is to have a fire alarm go off in your car

[@DMorfin11]

My weekend doesn't start without this show!

[@xxacidmv]

Doogs with the great jackson pollock reference

[@givemeabreak432]

Oh shit it's Jesse Cox! Do you know where Dodger is?

[@ricksturgis4451]

When Crendor is here the Cooptional vibes are so strong

[@thenightranger4253]

i miss the pax days because watchin you and crendor do a pannel was so much fun.

[@lainsechoes]

Crendor: the internet hasn’t gotten more toxic. Also Crendor: goes on about how the internet has, in fact, gotten more toxic. 😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐

[@Mindofthequill]

I started getting concerned during the Tilting section I was like hold up do we need an intervention? lol

[@38lizzieb]

Now that Crendor is almost done with the Sailor Moon series, he can start on the movies!

[@TTThedarkknight]

Crendor episodes are the best❤

[@ZenFr0g]

I am both fascinated and confused by Crendor's absolute love over teeny tiny details while simultaneously completely ignoring (or in the case of BG3, actively destroying) lore/story in general. It's truly a wonder.

[@Octorawk]

This was the most they've introduced anyone so far and it's Crendor...

[@rurouni1399]

I still have that clip of Jesse rage-quitting into Dodger's stream.

[@BotflyAtrophy]

That whole pretend we don't know you bit broke me.

[@markvettel2902]

ohh ya Crendor is back lets goooo

[@Arbitros1]

Man this one reminds me of when crendor would be on the co-optional podcast. He'd drive TB fucking INSANE... I miss him guys

[@Chris.Woodcock]

We've tuned in, we're listening to you.

[@DarthNoswad]

I love how instead of introducing Crendor it became an extremely long role play session where Jesse and Dodger don’t know who Crendor is and also know a little less about anything

[@Rozonkomo]

This episode shoulda been titled "Roll the clip"

[@suddenshotty]

Impossible Podcast challenge: Take a shot for every time they say "Roll the Clip"

[@ordoarc4739]

CRENDOR'S BACK, BABY!!

[@LDH777]

Crendor is back baby

[@Techstriker1]

I vote for different Crendor thumbnails every time. 1, so we don't confuse all the visits less, 2, so they can use increasingly obscure or weird photos of crendor.

[@RatedX29]

This crendor guy seems like a great guy. Could be a bit more chill, but thank you for the introduction.

[@dimitargirushev13]

MOAR CRENDOR YASS!

[@scubastevewa8580]

The Crendog returns!

[@AndresIndoril]

If we all only watch this show once, we are never going to get Jesse that mushroom tattoo!

[@ulfar321]

Man i love this podcast

[@SerWindpipes]

1:40:10 - Can't disagree with my boy here though. Callisto is amazing

[@Chozo_hybrid]

Crendor is correct. I don't play WoW, and yet watch his Top Tens.

[@emorodo]

Since I don't know if there is a proper place to suggest a guest I'll suggest it here. You should invite Quinns from SU&SD(Shut up and Sit Down)/ PMG(People Make Games)

[@HR1S]

My body is calling out for a Christmas special clip show

[@elhijodeshrubber7560]

Glad news and releases is a segment, as strange as it may sound Co-optional was my first source of upcoming releases back in the day.

[@nik9111]

perfect timing
