Hello and welcome to the PC Perspective Podcast. This is episode 876, being recorded on July 15 already. 2026, I'm Sebastian Peake.

**Jeremy Alstrum** (0:17)
It's the German one. I'm Jeremy Alstrum.

**Josh Walroth** (0:21)
Sebastian has new things behind him, and I'm so curious to hear about them later. I'm Josh Walroth.

**Brett Van Spermberg** (0:29)
There is no German version. Stop the vicious rumors. I'm Brett Van Spermberg.

**Kent Burgess** (0:36)
And I'm Kent Burgess.

**Sebastian Peake** (0:38)
You know, when you tell an outrageous lie on the podcast.

**Josh Walroth** (0:42)
It travels faster than the truth can tie its shoes.

**Sebastian Peake** (0:47)
It's true.

**Kent Burgess** (0:47)
Yep.

**Brett Van Spermberg** (0:48)
It goes around the world faster.

**Sebastian Peake** (0:50)
Asking for the German version in German, and I had to do some Google Translate, and I responded and said, you know, there is no German version, that was not true. Maybe Google can translate it for you on the fly if you're watching YouTube, so.

**Josh Walroth** (1:05)
So is there a German word for lying freaking podcast?

**Jeremy Alstrum** (1:11)
There must be. It's probably significantly more specific than that.

**Josh Walroth** (1:17)
Bitte lieben Fuschmonster podcast.

**Jeremy Alstrum** (1:22)
I have all eight better people yelling about computer hardware on a podcast. It's about 18 syllables, but yeah.

**Kent Burgess** (1:32)
What were you gonna say? Der Bauer. We could just get Der Bauer to translate it for us. He has nothing.

**Josh Walroth** (1:39)
Yeah, he's got a lot of time on his hands.

**Sebastian Peake** (1:41)
He does record every video in English and German.

**Josh Walroth** (1:46)
Yeah. All right.

**Sebastian Peake** (1:47)
Let's go to Google Translate right now and figure out exactly what Lying Podcast is.
Wait, the Lying Podcast. That didn't work.

**Jeremy Alstrum** (1:59)
Well, you turned it into a title.

**Sebastian Peake** (2:01)
Der Lugen Podcast.

**Josh Walroth** (2:04)
Der Lugen Podcast.

**Sebastian Peake** (2:06)
Der Lugen. Yeah.

**Josh Walroth** (2:07)
Well, there you have it.

**Sebastian Peake** (2:09)
All right. Moving on to the Patreon segment of our podcast. We of course have to thank some people. We have to thank everybody really for contributing to this. The thrilling exercise.
Yes, and Ders. Please tell us more, Brett.

**Brett Van Spermberg** (2:29)
So I went back into the podcast Patreon of Hall of Fame.
You know what I'm talking about, right? Hall of Fame, and I pulled out some random contributors from that. And I wanted to make a special mention for the Ders. I think we had that name just thrown about just a few seconds ago. Jay Fleming.

**Josh Walroth** (2:55)
Ders still shows up in our Discord and throws a daily link for us to watch. Thank you, Ders.
Yes.

**Brett Van Spermberg** (3:06)
Thank you, Ders. Jay Fleming is another long time Patreon member. A. Edwards.
I'm leaving off people's first names to protect their innocence.

**Josh Walroth** (3:15)
Anthony Edwards?

**Brett Van Spermberg** (3:16)
The doctor?

**Jeremy Alstrum** (3:18)
Stop it.

**Josh Walroth** (3:19)
Goose.

**Brett Van Spermberg** (3:19)
He promised not to use first names here.
JG 47, which I think is a reference to German airplane, perhaps. And WB Tracy.

**Jeremy Alstrum** (3:34)
Thank you all.

**Brett Van Spermberg** (3:36)
I don't think that stands for anything really. It's just WB Tracy.

**Josh Walroth** (3:40)
Just want to give you a big German donkey shorts. Donkey shorts.

**Jeremy Alstrum** (3:45)
Darling donkey shorts.

**Brett Van Spermberg** (3:48)
That's not what that means, I don't think.

**Jeremy Alstrum** (3:50)
Oh, okay. Are you sure?

**Sebastian Peake** (3:53)
Nope.
All right, thank you. And let's move to the food segment. Josh, please tell us about your lunch escapades.

**Josh Walroth** (4:02)
So anyway, I went to lunch today. That's all. No, no. I went in and they had a special. In fact, they had two specials. They had the pizza burger, which I did not get, but I didn't know about that until later. But no, piled high up on the thing was Philly steak and cheese tater tots.
You know, at first you think that doesn't look all that appetizing, but I don't think you realize how nicely caramelized the steak is and then the peppers and then the onions and then the cheese and then the perfectly fried tater tots. My friends, I couldn't eat it all. There was too much. It was too much, but it was fantastic.

**Brett Van Spermberg** (4:56)
So much flavor.

**Josh Walroth** (4:58)
There was a lot of flavor. I mean steak and cheese and peppers and onions.

**Jeremy Alstrum** (5:04)
It almost looks like whole pork as opposed to steak.

**Josh Walroth** (5:07)
But yeah, no, I know.
