This one has so many good quotes “Not just to cheat on my wife” “She can come too” “In every sense of the word” “I’m going just for the spectacle” Actually it’s mostly just that conversation
it still amazes me that Beej doesn't intake caffeine, alcohol, marijuana or anything else really but still manages to be as ridiculous and silly as he is
Infinite money in the form of quarters taken out one at a time? That was actually a thing in an L. Frank Baum short story called "The Queen of Quok." This has been your Utterly Useless Trivia Fact Of The Day.
6:43 : "Show me a functioning arcade and I will get behind you on that." Next time you're in Portland, OR, have a stop in to Ground Kontrol. Just a few blocks away from Voodoo Doughnut (well within walking distance). Also: The annual video arcade exhibition California Extreme in Santa Clara, CA, is coming up in late July. Except all the games are set to free play, so you wouldn't need any quarters... EDIT: If you're in the San Francisco area, and super-retro amusements strike your fancy, there's Musée Mécanique on Pier 45 in San Francisco (very near the tourist-trappist Fisherman's Wharf). And across the bay in El Cerrito, there's Playland-Not-At-The-Beach, which has rescued exhibits and amusements from San Francisco's Playland At The Beach amusement park, which was torn down in 1972.
While I'd love to check out Ground Kontrol whenever I actually visit my sister... The one arcade that I consider as my "home arcade" is The 81 as the majority of the games are just a quarter (only 3 titles require 2 quarters)... if only the drive was shorter for me (as the "local" arcades are generally geared towards kids than adults). Other places I could see having a quarter at all times would be... * Coin-op laundromats (granted, it would be a bit slow to rack up enough to start the machines) * Casino Slot machines that accept quarters (hard to find nowadays, since most take bills or casino tickets) * Coin-op Vending machines (speed of coin entry might be a concern)
there's also the Louisville Arcade Expo, the next one is next year in Louisville. filled to the brim with old school arcade and pinball games, as well as rare and expensive pinball (like Joust Pinball) and Stern's newest pinball game. I think it was based on The Walking Dead.
I've been carefully trained by LRR to expect a stinger at the end of every video, and that there isn't one for the Panelysts is kind of a stinger unto itself.
1:10 no irony, ian is completely right when it comes to the "upgrade" from ogg to flac just not being worth it unless you are running an actual archive that demands perfect recreation from which to create other encodes or something
The first one: definetly the quarter-thingey. You can get infinitely rich: Just buy an old Parking meter, fill it up with coins, then open it up and take them out. You do this a few hundred thousand times and boom.
If it takes you five seconds to fish the quarter out of your pocket that's $180/hr, $360k/yr at 40hrs/wk 50wks/yr. Not infinitely rich, but very nice if you can stand fishing quarters out of your pocket and putting them into a meter all day five days a week. I'd take a pretty big pay cut not to have that be my life. IDK how much though
Is the quarter transported from someplace else or is it a brand new quarter? Because I think the bigger concern with the meter thing is Beej getting caught up in counterfeiting or collapsing an entire country's economy.
It's such a trip to hear Canadians talking about worthless American quarters the way we talk about Canadian quarters... I never thought about the fact it must work both ways.
The answer to the first segment: make your own parking meter. You can get a free quarter every 2-3 seconds which is $5 a minute or $300 an hour or $48,000 a month (if you did it 9-5 five days a week) or $576,000 a year.
I think that they're not taking into account the irony of genies. Yes, you never have to wait for coffee again, but does that mean that you get instant free coffee any time you want, or does it mean that you lose the taste of coffee, that all coffee you drink turns to ash in your mouth, and you never want to drink it again. Or does it mean that anything you touch becomes piping hot coffee and you can never taste another food again. And it's not good coffee, it's the crap instant crystals stuff. Even the good coffee turns into crap coffee when you touch it. OR does it mean that a blight wipes out all coffee everywhere? Can't wait for coffee if none is ever coming. This could go bad in so many ways.
I have no idea why Kathleen said "rent" because that's not what it is at all. You get the coin back when you return the trolley to the stand. It just holds your money hostage to deter theft.
Supermarket trolleys take a pound or euro in the UK, but the pound has changed. So many people have a fake pound on their keychain or in their car that I honestly don't think anybody has tried putting a new pound in one.
The obvious outcome of “Never have to wait in line for coffee again.” is either the total deletion of coffee from space and time or your death. Have none of you ever read a fairytale?
If i dont have to wait for coffee and it instantly is there. then i can share that power by making coffee for everyone with little effort. every cofee is going through me. I dont drink coffee myself but that would be a ver effecient cofee shop
Buy an arcade cabinet and literally make your job playing video games... hell, as you generate more revenue, gather more games to play and fill with magic quarters and open a barcade. No cover charge, 25¢ games, good drinks and bar food? You would be a hero... God amongst geeks.
"rent" - they hold a coin hostage in a mechanical device to discourage you from stealing them until you're finished and put them back, then return the coin.
If I may. 1.the problem weigh the coffee li e power is that it's also a curse. Because as someone who had a truck growing up can tell you "if you have a way to make someone else's life easy, then your gonna get called on to do so!". Now cam and Ian are the SOLE INDAVIDUALS who will be asked to get coffee. Forever. Because why would anyone else do it when You can do it better and faster. Even if you say no, people will sill ask and it will drive you fucking crazy. 2. gachipon machines?!? Come on dude the real answer was right there. SLOT MACHINES! the 25 cent pay out best vs investments made to it. Your literally rich waiting to happen. This was a no Brainerd dudes.
Bit late in reading this, but i'd figure the best thing in having infinite quarters isn't the slot machine thing, but having money to access almost every single vending machine that ever existed. Never have to worry about snacks or drinks ever again.
This one has so many good quotes
“Not just to cheat on my wife”
“She can come too”
“In every sense of the word”
“I’m going just for the spectacle”
Actually it’s mostly just that conversation
I love the chaos factor of team Alex and Beej.
8:42 - "I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul"
This is the most happy I have ever seen Cameron
"I'm not going to go JUST to cheat on my wife."
i love cam's casual vernacular. "Flensing." "Excoriated."
Streaky Haddock This is a tad scripted haha
Seeing this again during lookdown feels like we all entered the contest alongside Ian and Cameron.
The caffeine nap is a real thing. It’s wonderful.
it still amazes me that Beej doesn't intake caffeine, alcohol, marijuana or anything else really but still manages to be as ridiculous and silly as he is
Infinite money in the form of quarters taken out one at a time? That was actually a thing in an L. Frank Baum short story called "The Queen of Quok."
This has been your Utterly Useless Trivia Fact Of The Day.
Alex is on-point in this episode. Every line is right when and where it needs to be.
"The Panalysts" is the very best of humanity.
6:43 : "Show me a functioning arcade and I will get behind you on that."

Round1 In California also legit. Doesn't use quarters, though.
there's also the Louisville Arcade Expo, the next one is next year in Louisville. filled to the brim with old school arcade and pinball games, as well as rare and expensive pinball (like Joust Pinball) and Stern's newest pinball game. I think it was based on The Walking Dead.
Yes 💖 Absolutely love this series and all of LoadingReadyRun as a whole. My faviroute channel on RUclips.
Absolutely the BEST episode of The Panalysyts so far, it'll be hard to top this one.
Rewatched. Still wonderful the second time around. Good on you LRR!
Team Tap and Die should have won the second round just for the many very short one-liners of Alex ! He was on FIRE that day
This is without a doubt the best episode so far.
I can't believe how quickly this show became my favorite LRR show. Kathleen is such a good host. Love you guys
This continues to make me happy!! Love it guys!
Best Panalyst episode to date. Laughed so much.
For some reason, I always assume there's going to be a blooper after the credits
I've been carefully trained by LRR to expect a stinger at the end of every video, and that there isn't one for the Panelysts is kind of a stinger unto itself.
Subtle, isn't it.
I love this show so much.
I love this show.
Best episode yet!
I would enjoy more of this.
This was an amazing episode!!
Fantastic episode
There, she said 'Good news, everyone!' You can all go home now.
yay i love this series
Take the quarter, buy your own arcade machine, infinite profit
A US quarter would be worth MORE than a Canadian one (CA$0.33)
Give it time.
1:10 no irony, ian is completely right when it comes to the "upgrade" from ogg to flac just not being worth it unless you are running an actual archive that demands perfect recreation from which to create other encodes or something
Thanks for this.

gringhidu gehtdichnichtsangoogle would that work though? If you own the meter, you don't actually need to pay it.
She didn't say that it doesn't work...sooo^^
She also implied that you had infinite money to do with what you please when they were trying to finnagle the hypothetical.
If it takes you five seconds to fish the quarter out of your pocket that's $180/hr, $360k/yr at 40hrs/wk 50wks/yr. Not infinitely rich, but very nice if you can stand fishing quarters out of your pocket and putting them into a meter all day five days a week. I'd take a pretty big pay cut not to have that be my life. IDK how much though
Could sit down and watch youtube videos while holding an empty meter, easy job!
Love the hilarious Sean Hannity temper tantrum reference at 11:55
"No points there, you winers."
Glad to know someone else gets my views on makeup, if it doesn't make me look like an evil witch why bother.
Is the quarter transported from someplace else or is it a brand new quarter? Because I think the bigger concern with the meter thing is Beej getting caught up in counterfeiting or collapsing an entire country's economy.
If you could collapse a country's economy one quarter at a time, that'd be an achievement upon itself.
Alex's outfit kept making me giggle, A+
I miss feed dump, but this bit is a Worthy Successor.
9:09 I laughed for a very long time at what Alex said there.
Would you guys ever consider Good News merch?
Please! I need this to be a thing now
I’d love a Good News mug with the Panalysts color scheme. Playmats or Sleeves would be a bit of a stretch, but also pretty cool.
That would be cool!
The 2nd question is so great
Ian: We're living the dream! ...well, we would be if we were ever sleeping again.
Alex looks 🔥
Ian, I'm pretty sure the 'fake' coin is a token from a now-defunct Albertan arcade, not a US Quarter-dollar.
We actually got a "GOOD NEWS EVERYONE"
The outtro music .. my jam
*Never wait for coffee again* is clearly an evil genie wording. Any jerk with a felling axe could grant that wish.
It's such a trip to hear Canadians talking about worthless American quarters the way we talk about Canadian quarters... I never thought about the fact it must work both ways.
Did anyone else reading these have their Ravenloft senses tingle when Kathleen said "anchorite?"
THOSE DAMN CLERICAL ERRORS
Two words: Quarter Slots!
Why did I just now realize that the Panalysts set is almost identical to Dice Friends?
where in the blasted wasteland that is Canada do you have to rent your shopping carts???
The answer to the first segment: make your own parking meter. You can get a free quarter every 2-3 seconds which is $5 a minute or $300 an hour or $48,000 a month (if you did it 9-5 five days a week) or $576,000 a year.

In every sence of the word... ... ... .. . ...
What is the renting a shopping cart thing? Do you have to pay for them when you go to the supermarket?
I have no idea why Kathleen said "rent" because that's not what it is at all. You get the coin back when you return the trolley to the stand. It just holds your money hostage to deter theft.
What fresh hell do you come from where you rent shopping carts and as someone who works at a grocery store where do I apply
IIRC, It's an anti-theft measure. You get the quarter(or dollar, or arcade token) back when you return the cart to its parking space.
Canda and EU. (and select stores in the US, or so i have heard). www.google.dk/search?q=locking+shopping+carts&tbm=isch
Aldi is the only store in the US I'm aware of that has this practice. Much more common other places.
Good game, needs more "This Hat".
I think Alex is living in the 1920s and is excited about living in the future
Aldi in the US use quarters. At least the Aldi in my town does.
Also Alex just flat out said
“I’m hard”
I kinda want that ending theme on loop.
After searching LombusMusic's soundcloud and bandcamp for the Panalyst tracks, sad to say they're not available to listen to on their own. A shame.
There's a functioning Galaga machine at Arcade MTL ! :P
Aw, Kathleen forgot to tell everyone to not email help [ AT ] loadingreadyrun [ DOT ] com because Paul just can't be bothered.
Must be the lipstick.
I feel like the quarter one can easily be hacked by something like a swear jar
Supermarket trolleys take a pound or euro in the UK, but the pound has changed. So many people have a fake pound on their keychain or in their car that I honestly don't think anybody has tried putting a new pound in one.

You know, Beej and Alex aren't helping the lewd thoughts I already have towards them by so quickly jumping on the sex-train.
And train is a sex position
SLOT MACHINES WITH INFINITE QUARTERS
HOWD YOU NOT THINK OF A PIGGY BANK!!
“Peius or penis”
“Well which one is gonna feel heavier in your hand?”
There's functioning arcades, especially in Japan.
8:25 Wait, who’s 39 years old? Cam or Ian? Both?
That reward, I wonder how much I would have to pay to get that.
holy wow alex sweet sunglasses,
Haha! my mind went INSTANTLY to Gacha :)
Oh hey, I recognize the name Milisent.
I miss Alex already, thank god for pre-records
Tim Sargent Where did he go?
Vacation for a month. Unless RoadQuest was a cover to accompany Alex so he might sacrifice himself to defeat Sinn .
poor Millicent...
You totally can game the quarte thing, through tax-evation like methods.
9:30 "hurt-furd-shire" Are our place names really that weird for non-brits to pronounce? XD
More like they're weird to comprehend.
the Achorite thing probably isn't looking nearly as good recently...
Funny!
I wish I was religious so I could be an anchoress. Seriously, people leaving me alone is my fantasy.
3:27 "Beep"?
Ian started to interrupt with "Beej" and stopped with "Bee"
If i dont have to wait for coffee and it instantly is there. then i can share that power by making coffee for everyone with little effort. every cofee is going through me. I dont drink coffee myself but that would be a ver effecient cofee shop

Why do you have to rent shopping carts?
You do it mechanically, and the coin is returned at the end. It's more of a hostage situation than a rental. Deters theft.
Wait, you need to rent shopping carts???
I thought his name was Tim Allen.
Tim Taylor was his character's name on Home Improvement.
Huh. Never knew that.
His character on the show Home Improvement was Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor.
rent shopping carts?
"rent" - they hold a coin hostage in a mechanical device to discourage you from stealing them until you're finished and put them back, then return the coin.
Why is kathleen hella from thor ragnarok
Second one: Sex Dungeon, I'm single, so count me in^^
cue random beep? beej?
If I may.
