Rocco In Japan - Mega64 Podcast

Rocco is back from Japan with stories to tell, from Kojima’s studio to the Costco food court (bulgogi bake, anyone?). We’re also talking about the big Jake Paul/Tyson fight and, as usual, our plans for impending nuclear war.

LOL no one was letting Rocco get away with "I don't often get the popcorn buckets"

[@mariotaz]

1:11:10 That was me that met you outside Super Potato. Been a fan for over 20 years, watching the podcast every week and been suporting since. That said, never been to the US so never seen a live show or Disneyland meetup - so randomly, at the perfect time, coming across Rocco in Japan was huge highlight for me. Always wanted to meet you guys! I also do extra for TV and Film and even met/worked films with big names but Rocco was definitely a highlight when it comes to meeting someone. Thanks for taking the time out to have a quick chat and take a picture with me. Hopefully you guys do a show in London! -Taz

[@roccobotte]

Great to meet you Taz!!

[@JoeGutterball]

nothing like relaxing and unwinding with a 15 minute discourse about the futility of hope in face of a geopolitical nuclear crisis

[@TheSSJSnoop]

Just seeing all 4 of them together on the podcast brings a smile to the face

[@jadenedaj]

Perfectly balanced like all thing should be. Although last week I didn't even notice Rocco wasn't on till like 1 hour 13 minutes in when they mentioned Rocco was in Japan lol.. They never go to the wide shot anymore, which tbh I'd rather they just keep it in the wide, I don't really see the point of having multiple shots /rant

[@cosmosofinfinity]

Which face?

[@chalie091892]

@@jadenedajYeah I totally agree if we’re not getting Kev cam anymore I’d rather they stick to the wide

[@deztruct0823]

Hearing about people in Japan seeing the Eva video was so cool, I hope we get more in 5mins videos I really love those

[@Luckyfoxoval78]

I've been under a lot of stress lately, and I'm so glad I decided to take some time and watch this. I always try to keep up to date on my favorite podcast but man, I just have to say thank you all and I'm so glad you're still around. You bring so much brightness to so many people.

[@TheApacheNinja]

1:33:51 might be one of the funniest visual juxtapositions in the entire podcast. The happy tone of Derrick recommending the book straight into Shawn's face of absolute dread took me out.

[@Stoooopid]

We all know what Rocco signed an NDA for at Kojima Productions. At the next Playstation showcase, don't color me surprised if in an upcoming DS2 trailer Rocco shows up holding a baby in a jar.

[@hobosnake1]

That would be amazing.

[@RxMxG]

1:20:48 Just remember, every one of us is a human being, no exception. We have our own problems, and how we react to our own problems. We have good days and bad days. Just imagine what happened to Mega64 last week, but you must serve coffee / foods a lot of different kind of attitude. That barista tired / rude / apathy maybe because of their previous customer sucks, who knows. Never stop being nice to other people, one barista was rude to you, doesn't mean you can't be nice to other baristas.

[@mr.exposition]

Rocco's feet scanned for DS2 confirmed

[@mightybison15]

God I hope so

[@darthgollumojg]

I asked him on Instagram and he liked my questions 👀

[@OGR-4394]

shut the fuck up with this joke istfg you're the most boring people on the planet

[@Edmitsu]

I would love to see Tenet in 5 minutes. Also Garrett Geroge Foreman came back at age 50 and took back his champion title in that fight. Its what made him a all time legend before the grills.

[@braxtonm9712]

Derrick put a curse on the Padres than he put a curse on Mike Tyson.

[@hobosnake1]

The Tyson fight was sad before it even started. I think it's just a win-win for the two fighters involved. If Tyson won, everything is great. If Tyson loses, he's 58, no biggie. It had no stakes. I just wasnt even a fan of the idea to begin with. I knew it would be mostly uneventful.

[@TheJohnston65]

Rocco comes back from Japan and his voice gets even sexier?

[@MentallyConfusedOgre]

i only watch mega64 for the most current WhatTheBuck jokes

[@CtotheP13]

Don’t forget Renetto

[@Edmitsu]

"I'm here, and so are you" stealing that.

[@CauseAndCatastrophe]

I just barely missed Rocco in Japan. Rocco and Shawn, thank you both again for your Cameo videos for my wife's birthday. She enjoyed them and the whole trip was great!

[@hobosnake1]

Thanks for supporting the crew!

[@braxtonm9712]

Been binge watching the pod at work. Ba Ha Mas everyone

[@stephen1193]

Yes pps and the podcast get me through work.

[@thefriendlynoob7]

I get where Derrick is coming from when talking about slightly rude baristas but honestly the fucking nonsense they have been through in the past 4 years... we service workers are just fucking tired man lol you guys almost shut down a couple weeks ago imagine the state everyone else is in, theres always nicer normal customers like Derrick but most customers have got WAY more rude you think theyd get nicer after the pandemic but noo sir

[@tristanfinnberg4607]

As a service worker, I also have to say I personally hate being asked "how's your day?" because we both know you don't care, and I'd rather just take your order and move on

[@thefriendlynoob7]

@tristanfinnberg4607 yea sometimes the nicest thing you can do is make it a quick transaction so we can all move on. Also I find it so funny that the boys clutched their pearls at this baristas response. "Well you're here and im here" is a genuinely hilarious way to respond to hows your day lol

[@isisorduno9311]

33:14 there is NO way flights inside the octagon or fake. People aren’t breaking their legs and jaws based off of predetermined outcomes; them fighters are scary af. but the interviews and back-and-forth probably are done up more for show

[@polishedpebble4111]

But people do get injured and die in wrestling.

[@braxtonm9712]

I dont know if all the main channel fans know the podcast moved to the Infinity channel. When Joe Rogan Podcast made the jump from youtube to Spotify he put a message at the end of all his videos letting fans know about the change. Just a thought.

[@TheColonelHavok]

So derrick doesn’t love his tattoo, he loves HAVING his tattoo. Curious…

[@RxMxG]

He should have just said that he's too lazy to laser remove his tattoo

[@RingWorlds]

"Next to your balls so it looks like he's blowing bubbles" lmfao

[@cr239]

Thank you, Johnny for the buzzer

[@parzivalthewanderer9687]

What a graceful welcome back from Rocco

[@andrewhamm7673]

Glad Day

[@souvlaki9951]

Shawn needed some CBD after Derrick and Garrett's nuke talk

[@50_Lizardss]

I heard somewhere he has 100mg gummies in his office

[@TheSteakJustice]

oh shit lmao maybe i'll come back to this episode later, relating big time to shawn rn

[@TheFamilyLearningChannel]

1:07:13 So what Derrick is saying is you can not like a tattoo but Like watching it?

[@Spawn3X5]

What a throwback for cartoon network i was in infancy still too young for the debut of the channel

[@johnnada6855]

I remember when cartoon network just started i got like an overdose of "Hanna Barbera", i think i know every single hanna barbera cartoon out there, since i was hook 24/7 to cartoon network and they didn´t show anything that wasn´t hanna barbera till cow and chicken and dexter´s lab and johnny bravo started or something

[@stephen1193]

I heard Eric loves Hanna Barbera and hates sushi.

[@juan355]

main guy: the return

[@balss248]

“What is a bucket” Shawn’s kid?!

[@ShanePWagner]

Happy he's back. God bless.

[@l1fef0rm]

No tattoo is more painful than getting one your sternum.

[@rice-a-ronin]

It's insane to me that people are still trying to call bluesky posts "skeets". Some real "Narwhal bacons at midnight" type shit.

[@dibrenn3432]

Fuck that made me sick

[@cheychc]

THE ENDING VID IS SO CUTEEEEE

[@stephen1193]

Mega64 has been part of my life for a long time. I would feel like a family member died if they weren't around anymore

[@ClumsyMonkey]

With ASL, you can still count the popcorn buckets on one hand 👍

[@lourahkneeri0229]

*HINT. the other popcorn bucket is from one of the boiz t-shirts. It was debuted on the p.o. segment.

[@TheNamekianClown]

The volcano thing is called the pyroclastic flow. Yeah, it's the actual most deadly part of a volcanic eruption, because it just comes so fast and suddenly.

[@B.Sleazy]

Millenial here, and I remember everything Roccow as talkin about woth Droopy D and Ed Grimley

[@DrunkSamurai]

I'm not Gen X but I remember that cartoon. They use to do random marathons of cartoons on Saturdays and that was one of them.

[@Targüs42]

Great show boys.

Derrick- for coffee you gotta find a quiet, cozy place that’s gay friendly. The baristas that seem like they’re high ( or are) are the only genuinely nice ones.

Yeah tipping sucks, I mean who asks people for money? Don't they already make enough money from their job?

[@sumguy3687]

1:16:41 I use this one trick. I pay with cash only at Starbucks so I dont have to deal with a "tip?" screen.

[@sumguy3687]

Also 1:32:05 Gotta take into account that nukes have "dummy" warheads that fire with the real warhead so the odds of the real warhead being shot down are lower.

[@hhoney7]

lovely outro !

[@El-Burrito]

Sean's vibes had to be sacrificed for it, but I was giggling like an idiot at Garrett's hijinks. Look on the bright side!

I have SEELE on my forearm - random dudes at bars point it out and say how they have it or want to get it. "yeah cool", never know what to say.

Please no more Nuke talk it makes me too nervous. True story, when I was little I watched War Games and it made me so upset I got sick and feverish and had to take the next day off of school.

@Suedeash no

[@amcdavey]

How did Rocco afford Japan and toys when Mega 64 is in wild and out debt?

[@emanluca3753]

He did a post about it. He had planned and paid that trip in February. Who plans for a trip a week out when they are on a budget? Try thinking! Sheep!

[@jadenedaj]

Bruh if it gets to the point where their personal wealth is being used to support the COMPANY then they are already doomed. Also the answer is: Cameo paid for the Japan trip, if he didn't go he would be ripping off people that bought Cameos specifically so he would go to Japan
