Holy shit Dan drinking that much espresso! I've also gone cold turkey from coffee, I'm on week 3. Those caffeine headaches were no joke.

Wat. Are your teeth decayed to shit? That much soda is insane even if it's diet. Overall it's just shitty for your health.

Regarding the coffee thing.
a) Dan has only recently started
b) He spoke about avoiding coffee and energy drinks in the past (can't remember the exact reason, but it might have to do with his anxiety)
c) Probably don't know much about coffee due to those factors

But they warned you and gave a timestamp!If I hadn't already beaten Inside, I think I would be disappointed by the spoilers, honestly

He's probably got really good natural metabolism. I work with a guy like that. Eats like shit, drinks all the time, but is thin as a rail other than a pooch belly. It's dangerous because some people (him included, not sure about Dan) think they are healthy just because they aren't morbidly obese.

Yeah, he's not in shape -- he's Skinny Fat.

Dan's lifestyle is completely unhealthy

It's weird how they casually talk about emulating old games like it's nothing. But why not I guess.
They used to avoid officially acknowledging that they emulated games; now they just don't care lol.
They've done that for years and no one has cared, so I guess no one really cares
In the beginning Jeff would dance around it, but he stopped doing that a few years ago.firehawk12

Yeah it's just weird because they've tried to avoid talking about it directly before. I'm just waiting for Drew to do a review of ZNES or whatever the emulator people use today is called.

The 32X is fine. At the time it was a bad investment, but now it is a fun little toy with Virtua Racing, a 16:9 version of Virtua Fighter, and improved Genesis / Sega CD ports.

For a guy who constantly goes on about fitness, Dan sure treats himself like shit with what he consumes

I think the theory is that he likes to eat like shit, so he might as well exercise so he can eat like shit.
Which doesn't really work out that way. As he found out. !P
lol, jeff talking about the elaborate drink orders at coffee shops reminds me of this bit from curb

As eyebrow-raising as Dan's health revelations were, I was shocked at Jeff's caffeine consumption and his ensuing immunity to it.
Keep yourselves healthy, duders!

I don't even have to click the link because this is EXACTLY where my mind went to.

The moment he mentioned junior high being the point where things changed, I nodded because this is basically exactly what I went through. It's to a point where coffee is far more narcoleptic to me than it does anything to keep me awake, and soda can flip-flop on its effectiveness on me.
The human body is weird, but it should always be healthy.

I'm probably the only one, but I liked Sewer Shark. Well at the time at least. Didn't care for Night Trap, but Double Switch was awesome too.

I always forget how Dan says "Predator." It's like... Prethador or something.
Jesus fucking christ how is Dan still alive?
But yeah thanks for the warning about Inside talk. I really need a car stereo with an aux port rather than just playing podcasts off my phone while I drive. Can't fiddle with it which is annoying when I get to a part I want to skip, or when I want to start a new podcast.
Look at it this way, if anyone bothered to go after them about it...Jeff probably has a copy or three of that game somewhere.

I'm listening now and got to the point where they're talking about tablet PCs. My wife got a tablet/laptop hybrid a couple years ago for about $200 and it works great for low-spec games on the train. I've been playing Stardew Valley on it and it works great. I may end up getting a full laptop later to make work easier, but for now, it's super useful.
Edit: Also, I suspected Dan might be showing signs of diabetes for a while due to his frequent bathroom breaks, but I didn't want to play internet doctor. Stay strong, Dan. Your kidneys and pancreas will thank you.

Why am I not surprised that Dan is pre-diabetic?

Listening now. I feel bad but I burst laughing at the espresso thing. My GOD. Only Dan.
Why are you drinking so much water? If you're peeing 4 times a night you're clearly hydrated.
