RT Podcast: Ep. 471 - Burnie Puts Ashley on the Hot Spot | Rooster Teeth

[@rpcubed101]

Hey guys, 07:20 they talk about GPS satellites. I actually work with GPS, so just wanted to share some stuff about the clocks The clocks used are Atomic clocks, Mainly Rubidium and Cesium, In the later models its primarily Rubidium. The clocks are indeed off of absolute time.. but this margin is mere nanoseconds. That nanosecond is still enough to throw your location off. Its a lot more complicated than these two sentences, but I hear the GPS time thing frequently. And I get the feeling it freaks some people out a little bit. :)

[@publius101]

is this just an effect of them going fast for a long period of time like they speculated? if so why isn't it accounted for? it's a trivial special relativity calculation..

[@Bill-zp2mt]

I always thought of time and space as a fabric, so it's the gravity that effected the time, and not the speed which the satellites traveled at. So the satellites are less affected by the gravity on earth, because they are father away from earth than us.

[@Bill-zp2mt]

For the speed to have an effect on time you have to travel at or close to the speed of light. My hypothesis are just from my bad memory, so I might be wrong.

[@publius101]

they are two different effects - speed affects time through special relativity, gravity affects it through general relativity. both are very small for satellites - the first because they are travelling slow relative to the speed of light, like you said, the second because Earth has very weak gravity. however i know that the gravitational time dilation is big enough that GPS satellites have to account for it, so it's curious that the speed time dilation isn't factored in (if that is indeed the case) - naively i'd expect the SR effect to be bigger than GR, but i haven't done the calculation, obviously.

[@darrianweathington1923]

rpcubed101 cool

[@AFR0PR1NC3]

15:06 Chris' face when Gus and Burnie are talking about "caulk" is priceless.

[@finn3494]

AFR0PR1NC3 OMG you're right lol

[@stareater1870]

At first I was like, "HOW IS NOBODY ELSE GETTING IT!", then I saw Chris.

[@kalebhornvlogs3504]

I kept forgetting Chris was there until he talked

[@Oaisus]

Kaleb Horn VLOGS I forgot Chris was there until I read your comment

[@immortalsun]

As an audio listener I didn’t even realize Chris was on.

[@KitchenAppliance]

i'm always enjoying rt podcasts throughout but the endings are usually the best part like something really funny and then i'm sad it's over

[@sarge019l4]

Wherever Ashley is is the hot spot.

[@JoshFox0289]

Can't disagree

[@Wintersypher]

22:10 the greatest sentence ever spoken aloud. Thank you Gavin.

[@Raf154]

Love how everytime Gavin says something to annoy Burnie he takes a deep breath before replying 😂😂😂

[@Rogue_Shaddo]

Ashley: 47:08-59:05 You're welcome.

[@marcus8036]

COYS! I love it when Gav talks about Tottenham on the podcast

[@weirdman22]

The point of the odd red salt scene was a way to set up that Luke's footprints never left any red behind. While it was a short payoff since it was revealed quickly, it was just a fun little way to reward the keen eye :)

[@RingedCow32323]

You just blew my mind, i didnt notice that

[@TheGameBoss-ox8rl]

before it was revealed he was a hologram i thought he was using the fighting technique darth vader used, since darth vader was so heavy he would use the force to bascially levitate slightly so he was more nimble in battle

[@LittleFuzzyMonster]

after hearing them be so upset about uber leaving austin im surprised to see it as a sponsor, no judgement at all but I was taken aback

[@Hessimore]

They were upset about the restrictions that made Uber leave the city and the fact they left overnight. I'm pretty sure they still used it in other places they went.

[@einar6708]

Yeah, I agree. Burnie said he still ends up using it, but that the speed of which they were able to just unemploy so many scared him. I trust Burnie. but then again it is not his job to get sponsors.

[@davidpfautz7661]

The porgs had more screen time than Captain Phasma.

[@parker797]

porgs were the best part of the movie tbh

[@crimsonsith]

That turn move with the X-Wing was a 'Tallan Roll'. The star wars X-wing miniatures game has the ship do the maneuver and also had t-70 x-wings with boost action. They totally showed the difference between the t-70 and t-65 models in episode 8.

[@GawsHawg]

1:33:50 In every space battle in the original trilogy the rebel pilots were always seen as individuals (Especially in the battle of yavin when they did the sound off for practically every ship), and they'd give a close up on their faces whenever they died.

[@Herman_Hedning]

Cool story bro

[@twilightzone39]

Yeah, but it was quick two second clips most of the time. The focus was on Luke for the entirety of the battle. This time around, they focused the climax of the battle on the Rebel pilots.

[@gw84g]

I went to watch the film and came back to watch this part of the podcast! Thanks guys!

[@jason18pb02]

Thanks for the heads up about spoilers will watch later after i see last jedi.

[@EmmaBonn96]

Barbara looks extra hot this week

[@TIMMUT17]

what

[@apollog7764]

Bakorafanboy13 nice ass

[@laurenflowerslament]

You got that right

[@underground868]

"I'm trying to fix a problem that doesn't exist"- words of wisdom from Gavin Free

[@Cheeky_Goose]

Burnie and Ashley are such a cute couple! I love those two so much.

[@PandaEire]

Chris legit hasn't talked in like 40 mins

[@Arcanine2D]

he spoke at around 34 mins in

[@PJB1995]

Good.

[@krishtiangonzalez]

I hadn't looked at the screen, didn't know he was there

[@rosschristie1]

Anyone else slightly put off by the fact they now have Uber as a sponsor? Particularly after what happened in Austin a while back and their opinions towards it.

[@MLGMLPKPG]

Ross Christie Very much so, they seemed so against it at the time then right when uber came with money they act as if it didnt happen, plus it seemed like chris was going to bring it up, but opted out

[@JurassicLion2049]

Wasnt it more they didnt like how uber had to leave austin and how that was inconvenient for a lot of their employees?

[@rosschristie1]

I think their main issue was that Uber just upped and left overnight, leaving hundreds of drivers unemployed

[@Pir-o]

Thats true. They also said they won't sponsor things they don't like / don't agree with. Looks like that goes out of the window as well.

[@jacksonboisvert7629]

I believe that their position on the Uber issue was that they didn’t agree with the restrictions that the state of Texas was putting on Uber, and they liked Uber as an alternative to normal cabs. BUT they thought Uber up and leaving screwed their drivers. Honestly who cares though, as long as they still like the service provided, what’s the problem with keeping them as a sponsor.

[@Tainoze]

Don't understand the hate on Chris in the comments. He's just slightly quieter than the other people? Not a huge deal?

[@plontulublalulu]

Dylan Melville i dont hate him but he just reminds of me irl. Awkward, doesn't quite fit in with the group, quiet. I wanna watch people like burnie who are really funny, confident socially, and fits in perfectly

[@natsusekai6190]

"We got 15 minutes left, let's talk about the last jedi" *proceeds to talk about the last jedi for 30 minutes*

[@nerolisk7630]

just start at 25:18 with no context. beautiful

[@ZakEverett]

DrAlexHarper Hahaha brilliant

[@oscarbrazil9922]

Gavin: why did our party ended at 10? Burnie: I dunno ask Bethany. Damn Burnie.

[@darrensummer3117]

So fun fact, apparently the tracking device is mentioned by Jyn as being developed by the Empire in Rogue One.

[@DanimalHype]

Ashley seems like such a lovely person.

[@ayoayo6849]

WanderSouls i saw her at pax 2014 and i must have stared at her wierdly because she stared back but looked really creeped out.

[@bruhyote132]

loser B You don't just admit these things to the public, dude. You basically confirmed that you _are_ a creep and that you couldn't talk to a girl.

[@ayoayo6849]

triggering ignorant bigots is a lot of fun I was walking in the crowd and kinda just got star struck, you know? Also i wasnt planning on talking to her at all, she just happend to walk right infront of me. Also yeah i don't know how to talk to girls but i some how have managed to stay in a relationship with one for 3 years now, so thats pretty neat.

[@thetalesofdaneandco]

@@ayoayo6849 Unjustifiably calling someone an ignorant bigot is a really interesting way of spinning that moment when you get called out for *outing yourself* as a person who creeped someone out.

[@misterdirtyharry]

The ending with Luke wasn't a fake out. He appeared as his younger self, like in the flashbacks. Plus there was plenty of foreshadowing, like when Kylo wipes the water from his face after talking to Rey.

[@bruinsuT]

Pro tip, watch the podcast at half speed and laugh your ass off at the fact they all sound hammered

[@phillippimentel]

bruinsuT it's the best

[@xhandhele]

Don't forget that Luke and Leia are twins, and the force was strong in both of them, but only Luke got trained to use it. Leia somehow managed to use a bit of it while she was dying. That's my takeaway from it.

[@imaginee0]

That subtle typo fix at 1:40:00 :)

[@itsdeonlol]

Happy Holidays Burnie & all of the RT Cast!!!

[@jsnmdn2738]

Deon Spates Thank you for saying Happy Holidays

[@terrych6175]

GAVIN IS WITH A NORMAL SHIRT WHAT! NICE

[@iRockManKind]

RTAA of burnie leaving the valet lady with his car keys pls

[@qcircuit81]

If Admiral Holdo told Po the plan to cloak the escape pod ships, they would have never went to the Casinos to and found the decryptor dude who gave away the ships being cloaked, to the First order. And the cloaked-ship plan wouldve went off without a problem. And the movie length would have been reduced by 1 hour. It all comes down to did Holdo know the cloaked-ship plan (Or only Leia)?

[@JBCoops88]

That's not how the military works though. You do what you are told.

[@qcircuit81]

Unless theres a Court Marshall.

[@JBCoops88]

Okay? I mean, court marshals take place after the events not during. I dont see how that would of affected anything in the movie

[@Azothan]

Been watching for almost 20 years now. Looking forward to another 20

[@rhysmahony8713]

Yikes 😅

[@TheGeneral525]

1:15:29 LAST JEDI SPOILERS AHEAD I think that the reason the First Order was able to keep up was because the rebels didn't put the engines at full speed. If they did, they wouldn't have been able to keep a steady burn for as long.

[@tylerhammer4561]

General525 that's what I think they got out of range then matched speed with the first order to burn as little fuel as possible

[@TheWassabiWarrior]

MasterCrander in The Phantom Menace the reason they have to land in Tatooine is because they didn’t have enough fuel to make the jump to Coruscant

[@smanvir94]

W..was that meant to be a joke?lol

[@Mrtheunnameable]

MasterCrander So you were completely wrong.

[@Dregore]

MasterCrander The reason it never was an issue is that there was never a problem with the groups' fuel supply, the Republic planets were always providing them with whatever they needed, In this the rebels are literally on their last legs and they do not have that support. Now they don't have those supplies so of course they're gonna run out. It isn't like they have infinite power.

[@derekcooper5583]

I love listening to this podcast there are times I listen to the drunk tank back when they first started

[@mozata6838]

YAY ASHLEY'S PLAYING THE PERSONA GAMES

[@PukusKLB]

I want a text message tone that's Gus' voice saying "here let me read this thing"

[@Hispanef]

I love that i slowed it down to half speed as soon as they started talking about wanting to be dumber xD

[@TheParadoxG]

Bothered immediately by the light speed conversation and wanted to point out that in Star Wars (the old cannon at least) "hyperspace" was a separate dimension with altered physics which let them slip through space with no loss of time over distance. Force Awakens may have retconned that with the "lighspeed approach" to starkiller base. It made more sense the original way though, it also meant that hyperspace wraith entities were real... and they were both terrifying and awesome.

[@CrazyGamer996]

well i don't think they retconned it, it still works that way, the thing is you need a certain distance to get up to speed and slow down, thats why nobody ever enters hyperspace when there is something in front of it they always look for an opening to enter it. The starkiller scene was there to show that Han was soo good that he could guess the time to jump out of hyperspace and not crash.....well sorta not crash.

[@TheParadoxG]

Nurarihyon the hyperspace theory works more along the lines of exit and enter, not speed up break through and slow down to exit. Old cannon states that interplanetary travel really only began when the tech to exit relative space was discovered, though it was never truly understood. The problem they had had before was that they hadn't been able to produce materials strong enough to hold up to the amount of speed necessary to hop planets in a reasonable time frame. Ftl has always had problems with relative time because it was a matter of speed. Hyperspace glosses over that because it's more like "wormhole" travel.

[@CrazyGamer996]

well I stand corrected, tho im still a bit confused since Han in the original trilogy says that you could run into a planet or a star

[@brianpulsifer4804]

Gavin, it is actually possible for multiple people to watch different things on the same screen

[@camerondaly96]

Warhol wonderland. I'm pretty sure that is a reference to Daria when Jane is in charge of the decorations for prom.

[@jacoblawrence3067]

The thing Burnie was talking about when he was comparing like a new hope and the force wakens is so true I noticed that in like 3 seconds

[@DDnufcGamer]

You noticed it during the text scroll? 8 of the 9 movies start with a text scroll

[@DerakosZrux]

I'll be so happy if they do do a move to the middle type thing with the force. Because both the light side and dark side have their drawbacks. It's the Jedi's issue with love that leads Anakin down the dark side, it's the dark side's disdain for love that eventually causes a "that's too much" moment when Anakin chooses between the Emperor and his son, but somewhere in the middle there's a non-extremist view where you can love and have family but sometimes sacrifices must be made, that kinda thing.

[@jeffbrownstain]

The company the only uses lyft: brought to you by uber

[@itzlagging]

I am Chris in this podcast. I sit and listen, never talk, laugh at something funny, but stay quiet.

[@lapisleafuli1817]

20:00 I love that burnie's complaining about a see through tv while his company's most popular show has the same thing (its stupid there too)

[@TheXeroRez]

OMG speed buggy! Awww I miss Hanna Barbera cartoons!

[@madysonschmidt2935]

I was wondering why Gavin looked so weird to me and then I realized it's because he's not wearing an RT shirt -- does not compute

[@elliottbolton78]

LAST JEDI SPOILERS IMMINENT Apparently in Rogue One they reference the research for the lightspeed tracking device when they are looking through the big data bank toward the end of the film, i havent rewatched and heard it myself but i have seen several articles saying that it is true!

[@SimplyNotReally]

Whelp, we're gonna get an RTAA of gavin talking about see through tv's... lmfao can't wait for this

[@Necrobadger]

The Culling died because they made HORRIBLE decisions regarding gameplay, and didn't listen to their players at all.

[@emanimation2926]

like wath?

[@Necrobadger]

Like removing stagger from blocked attacks, which was one of the MAIN PARTS OF BALANCED COMBAT.

[@mnalghrenn]

To address something they commented on about TLJ, Spoiler below. You cant go hyperspeed into things because it violates a plethora of treaties and conventions within the universe, as well as those who did it can't spare the ships.

[@NeuroChriscomic]

OMG. Gus and I have the same morning ritual of dread.

[@JackBessant]

Tbh, Palpatine was already developing light speed tracking...

[@gzerq]

Burnie and Gus are talking about things they only know because their older and I am sitting here at 24 remembering these things also.....

[@JoeMazzolaTheFirstPersonCook]

I haven't seen it yet but spoiled myself, and it sounds like the choices made were things that I would like. And as for non-Jedi killing Jedi I remember that was a HUGE thing in KoTOR II, a character's entire arc was based around the fact that he could.

[@jdcatz3591]

Everyone laughing at Gavin about watching multiple movies: my bet is it will happen one day. Just saying...weirder things have happened

[@D.0.C]

They have TV screens that play two things at once. You just have to be looking from different angles. It works by blocking half of the pixels from view when looking at screen from each angle

[@weathermann1505]

Let’s play has 3100 videos as of today. 1248 videos have came out in the last 3 years

[@TheYamyamz]

Weren't they boycotting uber like a week ago?

[@KevSB07]

Anyone played Mario Kart Wii? Because people still play that game online to this day, and you can still find a match online. To put that in perspective, this is a 10 year old game. Nintendo even shut down the multiplayer servers for Wii games in 2014, but players then created their own hacked servers for others to join for free! Now that's a dedicated fanbase.

[@theneweratm3715]

I don’t mind this I like chris, good change. I can tell this is going to be a great podcast.

[@TheKrazyguy75]

The prequels did have some cool cinematography. Like in episode III in the first battle, they do a lot of 3 dimensional maneuvers, which next to no space movie at the time was doing.

[@Abel.Rosario]

Watching movies in Japan is completely different than in the U.S. There was no moment in the movie where any one had any reaction. Pure silence. The entire time. For every film.

[@ienzio7795]

Abel Rosario How boring

[@Sonics1DiscordKitten]

The throne room guards have basically trained since childhood, so it makes sense that they could fight someone untrained, and someone who is trained but watching someone else's back

[@vielmatthew]

Chris looks like a Scott pilgrim stunt double lmao

[@mangaluver1231]

I remember Speed Buggy. Though by the time I'd seen it on Boomerang, that show had probably been in syndication for decades. Like He-Man.

[@akiray1999]

if i ever got the chance to talk to burnie the last thing i would ask him for is a job

[@DesperateOak48]

I loved Speed Buggy!

[@nathanitet]

Hang on, did Chris ever end up saying what he wanted to about Uber?

[@xziledgamer3931]

also for the people asking about the culling look at the steam charts

[@GeminiRosche]

Okami is literally the best. you are the Japanese sun goddess Amaterasu come to earth as a white wolf and fight to bring peace to feudal Japan. Almost every character is a mythological character and the gameplay gimmick is drawing shapes based on constellations and nature stuff.

[@TomB205]

Have y'all never heard of a taco in a bag?

[@justinwhibley5527]

TomB205 yea @TomB205

[@ForTheRock]

I think the only reason the guy mentioned it was salt is because the dude beside him was Gareth Edwards, and the guy speaking might have been a producer. It was just a cameo bit

[@breadboi8747]

For the thing about watching more than one thing on TV, I seem to remember seeing a picture of some people that were playing a game that would be split screen but they found a way to make it work like a 3d movie with the red and blue layers, but one player had blue glasses and the other had red so they weren't able to see the other. This mightve been a dream though.

[@nathanitet]

you know, I think I've seen a picture like that too, it might've been a joke though I don't remember clicking on it for more details

[@sethmiller2797]

that title though.. bumchikabumbum

[@sagwafelix9400]

Ashley playing Persona 6. This, I Gotta See!

[@DrLampost33]

Boomerang shows this and I watched this as a kid

[@shuiichii5517]

Personally I felt Luke had an interesting arc, and if they treated him like a Yoda character everything with Rey would be really boring because it would've been a RE-hash of Empire Strikes Back. His death was cool not because he was cool, but because his arc led him to do this incredible feat of strength that visibly killed him, and it resolved any tension with the character creating "peace."

[@Rottondude2]

This is the earliest I've ever been on a big video like this

[@JurassicLion2049]

1:06:40 aw man Burns I remember when you invited Gus to see Shape of Water and thought that was so sweet of you and now I am crushed you didnt follow up on it.

[@ikehonea3601]

I want to hear Blayne’s thoughts on the last Jedi

[@domkovski8575]

I think lightspeed is just the common term used, but the hyper-drive throws you into hyperspace which bends space. Then again the hyperspace wars are no longer cannon so idk what to call it.

[@ElementalHazard]

54:30 if you right click the attachment it does the same thing. that has always been in the game.

[@lukeirot]

the moment i heard last jedi almost closed my internet browser entirely

[@MitchCyan]

I’ll put it this way. TLJ wasn’t Halo 4, but it wasn’t Halo 5 either.

[@codmanout9861]

I may be mistaken, but I do believe that in the Star Wars Legacy Universe, there did exist some form of hyperspace based weaponry, missiles or some such, but the complexity of the technology prevented most usage

[@namtro7752]

Completely agree with Chris about BB-8. He was WAY too OP!

[@blade9871]

For the Star Wars portion regarding all the moments that "didn't matter in the end," like Kylo not shooting Leia, it matters to the characters, not the plot. Kylo not shooting Leia is more about his character, it's not about Leia almost dying.

[@toddsie72]

Now why oh why did I first read the title as "Burnie Punts Ashley on the Hot Spot" ? Can't be a bad upbringing, as RT has been a major influence...

[@XxiprownagejooxX]

To comment on Burnie's point about Kylo Ren- Rey Love story 7 had JJ Abrams direct it while 8 had Rian Johnson so its kinda up to the director to what path they wanna take with Abrams returning on episode 9 I think were gonna get back to the more hate relationship and way less tension and I also think 9 is gonna be a lot better JJ Abrams is an amazing director

[@bryanwoods3373]

Having those transparent screens behind each one another could create 3-D effects without glasses. I assume the technology has updated since Disney used it for movies and Super Nintendo's mode 7 graphics.

[@sethb1689]

All lcd monitors and tvs are see through, they just put an extra layer to make it easier to see what is being shown on them and so you don't see the electronics behind them. Lcd displays are as thin as a piece of paper. There are videos online of people taking really old lcd monitors like in those portable dvd players and peeling the extra layers off the lcd and putting it on the side panel of their pc case. Google lcd case mod to see some videos of it, it is pretty cool.

[@javanclarke1431]

TGIF bro mentioned on the RT podcast let’s get iiiiiit

[@powerdog5983]

50 shades of the grey area between the light and dark sides of the force

[@southernbelle2675]

where is this pre-recorded Christmas show?

[@whyfishonheadyt3408]

Chris said like three words this entire podcast
