0:10

kind of funny podcast. I'm one of your

0:12

0:15

of funny best friend in future. AEW

world champion. Fuego del Sol. Woo

0:20

0:23

to hold down Nick Scarpino's spot son?

0:26

Listen. Listen. You know, there's been deadweight on the

0:28

show for a little while. Okay?

0:30

And I think for one day,

0:32

I can sit here and

0:34

think about something else while y'all talk

0:36

-- Yeah. -- just like Nick does and not

0:38

be real player. With something on

0:41

the fly. don't repeat something. We

0:43

just said, but, you know, we just said, like,

0:46

you know, I'll find a line and I'll stop

0:48

right

0:48

over. just like Nick's girlfriend, so

0:50

that's one of my favorite comments of people

0:52

being like, it's great to see them all in person

0:55

so that we could see Nick zone out in

0:57

real life and not listen to people when

0:59

they're talking. And we had the big thing about bringing

1:01

in the other TV they have for chat. As

1:03

you knew, Nick Nick just a moth to flame,

1:05

man. Yeah. I mean, dude, he can't. What's

1:08

Cody Hangler saying? And then he just

1:10

ignores everything. That's the end of that. happy to have

1:12

you before you go. I'm happy to bear with you, man. Oh,

1:14

he's the head savers. Man, no, he's panic.

1:29

1:37

David Smith. David Smith. David Smith.

1:39

How are you doing, Andy? I'm

1:40

1:42

1:43

about these yeah. About these sweat pants from

1:45

Marina Arby's. Yeah. They're nice. turn off the

1:47

bat. They're very they are very comfy.

1:49

Yeah. Yeah. Well, they're very underrated.

1:52

I I feel like four

1:53

thirty under thirty, 8KA second

1:56

best baby who's in San Francisco. Hey, Ka. The verified

1:58

one at Tim Giddie. Mhmm. I feel like

2:00

I was guilted out of sweatpants at an

2:02

early age. and now I just don't think

2:04

there I I feel like everyone's come

2:06

back to sweatpants. You know what I mean?

2:08

because like when I used to wear sweatpants to school,

2:10

and

2:11

kids would be and I'm talking like, you know, in the grade school. Mhmm.

2:13

Kids are like, why don't you wear jeans? I'm like, they're too rough

2:15

with my thighs. Yo. What

2:17

was that? That was up with the we're

2:19

gonna get back with just a second.

2:21

What was up with the specifically elementary

2:23

school kids? It was always the little boys.

2:26

wearing those light gray sweat pants. And

2:28

if you were a little boy in school

2:30

wearing those light light gray sweat

2:32

pants, chances are you're gonna shit

2:34

those pants. Like, the amount of brown

2:36

that ended up on these light gray stuff. I

2:38

didn't

2:38

even go. I didn't even go. I didn't even go.

2:41

I didn't even do the one kid. not

2:43

gonna name him, but you know his name. Thank

2:45

you. Thank you.

2:47

Thank you. See, is it also, but it's also

2:49

kids just like sit down and mud and stuff

2:51

all the time. You know what I mean? I mean, I saw I specifically

2:54

have some cockey stories. You know what I mean? Sure.

2:56

Yeah. Okay. think it's just kids shit their pants,

2:58

you know. That's true, man. Like like, you know what

3:01

age are we talking about kids? I mean, what age are we talking about? I shoot

3:04

my pants through college. Yeah. I mean, I've been on a

3:06

good run lately, but I can't run it back anytime.

3:08

And any second, this thing gonna happen again.

3:10

You know, like, you're ten years sober.

3:13

You're I really tell you.

3:17

I'll tell you, like, it's one of the things that

3:19

people talk about getting old and the great things about

3:21

getting old. not being so worried that

3:23

I'd have to shit in a public place has been great.

3:25

I'm proud of you. because that was a big problem in college.

3:27

Be at the bar. I'm like, I'm gonna have to shit here tonight and then I would

3:29

get in my own headway go and then I'd have to shit at the

3:31

bar. And back in Missouri, there was a huge math

3:33

problem like sex in the bathroom. So they didn't

3:35

put doors on the stalls. So I'd have to

3:37

have a friend come in and stay there and walk you like

3:39

shit in the fucking bathroom. Hey,

3:42

man. With you and your cool

3:44

breeze hitting you in the market, you know.

3:46

I understand. I understand. fant. Nowadays,

3:49

I'm just not as crazy. You know what I mean? If you're out there right

3:51

now, everybody, let me tell you. And you are a

3:53

serial shitter. You are a serial shitter

3:56

out there, and this is a big problem for you. You

3:58

go I have no issues with cereal. You know

3:59

what I'm saying? Don't

4:01

worry about it. It's gonna be fine. There's probably a

4:03

bathroom nearby. Don't worry about it. Don't cares.

4:05

Do you think at any point human

4:08

like society thought

4:10

that there should be like shitting in

4:13

as well. I think

4:14

they had that for a while. It was just on sanitary. Right? That

4:16

was a problem. Is

4:17

it guy? I hate a trough? I don't I'm not a

4:20

trough. I'm looking at a weiner. I don't want to look at a weiner

4:22

here. Why am I here? Why is this here? Right?

4:24

If I walk in two places, I see a trough, the

4:26

whole night has become a bike truck. And here's but here and

4:28

I'll say this to you, and this is also gonna talk a

4:30

little bit. I'll need to know where. When is

4:32

the last place you saw trough and wear. because I would

4:34

imagine back in the RGB, there's probably still

4:36

some bars doing it or something. It was probably a

4:38

bar in Austin, Texas, actually. Yeah. I've had I

4:40

haven't seen a trough in quite a while because even stadiums

4:42

used to have them. And I'm sure right now, somebody's like,

4:44

no, my stupid stadium doesn't. I know the old

4:46

stadium still have it. Well, you you know, you've been

4:48

doing enough wrestling shows. the amount of dick I've

4:50

seen in a wrestling show. And it's weird. Right?

4:52

because, like, you never are trying to look at

4:54

dick. But if anybody

4:56

You catch It gets snacking. You're like, uh-oh. You

4:58

catch them. Yeah. You can well, you got these

5:00

peripheral visual. I'm sorry to hear that. then there's

5:02

always your question. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. That's

5:04

perfect. And you're like a high flyer. too. It's

5:06

us. That's not. It's not how many problems

5:08

have you run and see where you use Catch it. Catch

5:10

it. I'm not gonna name names. That's gonna be

5:12

the theme of this episode. just told Kool Aid

5:14

the story last week, and I'm gonna tell it here without

5:16

the names, my first e three. Alright? I

5:19

am super excited to be there. Go to the

5:21

bathroom, hanging out at the LA convention center. It's

5:23

what happens. Right? not look over. Famous

5:25

rapper. Famous

5:25

rapper walks in and I'm my holy shit.

5:27

This is that's this unnamed famous. Cisco

5:30

related to fifty cent kinda not gonna get one of

5:32

the YouTube videos. straight

5:34

up, stands

5:34

at the URL next to me. I

5:36

don't know.

5:36

And nice to drag and play with soccer.

5:39

Can't make this up. I might freak

5:41

it out. my piece of blood. I'm, like, first off, I don't

5:43

wanna look at him just because we're in a bathroom.

5:45

So I'm not trying to lie. Yes. I'll let you know.

5:47

Second off, chock of splatter of the boy too.

5:49

It's not not like a dream of what?

5:52

I'm just trying to show respect to to any

5:54

any money, but let alone somebody that might I don't

5:56

even out of this scenario, I don't wanna like,

5:58

make eye contact with him whatever. And he

6:00

straight up says to me, look at my dick. He wants to

6:02

see what a real dick looks like.

6:04

I

6:06

think you rebooted in a different sense of

6:08

the word But I didn't answer. I wanted a question.

6:10

Rebooted. I didn't wanna know. I kind of

6:12

did, but I was also, like, do you wanna check out I'm

6:14

not about to do you, Nick? Why

6:21

did he say real dick? Did he look at George first?

6:23

That's what I'm saying. I there's questions

6:25

about this that I've had since two thousand ten.

6:27

Wait a minute. You see, that's the problem. You weren't a personality.

6:29

Yeah. We attempt him. Did you look at his dick and think,

6:31

holy shit? That's a real dick. I

6:33

did not look at the games dick. Okay? Can I

6:35

just say the name? I just said the name. Is

6:37

this suspiciously,

6:40

like, related to Memphis. And how did you

6:42

know? Right. Appreciate

6:45

that. Over here, it's already gone, but last time

6:47

somebody used a trough was at the Braves. Home of the

6:49

John Rocker. Oh, Home of John Rocker.

6:51

Yeah. I went we went from we went from

6:53

troughs to to shitting the

6:55

pants, but we started with sweatpants. And when

6:57

you said I I just feel like they're back in

6:59

vogue now. You know what I mean? Like, for a while, their sweatpants

7:01

were super out. McFoli's wrestling and I'm

7:03

never making fun of them. And then I was like, cool.

7:05

I can't wear those anymore. It's all about basketball

7:07

shorts if I wanna be comfortable. And then Gregor

7:09

and Nick shaved you out of that. Then he got into

7:11

athletic pants. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? You know, Nick

7:13

can't shave me on anything. Alright? I'll be damned if I'm

7:15

looking to a fifty two year old. Tell me how I live.

7:17

Alright? Here's the thing, though. Like, now

7:19

you're back, though, because it's amazing. Like, remember when you

7:21

had those joggers, like, I'm getting on a plane. looks

7:23

like a bump. Well, I don't I don't think

7:25

that,

7:26

like, I look You look

7:27

great right now. You look great. But,

7:30

chances you look great trucks. Throw up ones in the

7:32

truck. if you look great. I'll tell you why I'm wearing

7:34

sweatpants right now. I think it's to kind of maybe even out

7:36

because we did KFF all this morning and I

7:38

wore a

7:40

suit jacket with a button up.

7:42

And I feel like I have to even that out with going

7:44

other ones. They look I feel like I have to even that out by

7:46

going even lazier. Sure.

7:48

Oh, I'd like it. If I were wearing pants today, I'd be

7:50

like that's too much. You gotta dial it

7:52

back a little bit. I know. As as time for

7:54

the chokes, we love a casual king and you know,

7:56

rockies with Thank you, man. Thanks.

7:58

In life, things get have

7:59

gotten, you know, more people

8:01

are more likely to

8:04

be

8:04

more casual. I feel like the world is growing more

8:06

casual. Less business, less suits, people

8:09

like sweatpants. You saw there were no issues wearing a

8:11

suit on pants. I

8:12

don't know if I can do the sweatpants. Well, I

8:14

tried because I at the end of the day, when I when my

8:16

pants were dirty and I wore those jeans from

8:18

Abercrombie and vintage that had the holes in them.

8:20

I then wore a portilla sweatshirt on

8:22

top of that and Blair called me on it.

8:24

He's like, yo, the pants Those

8:26

are Abercrombie and Fitch and they are not your style.

8:28

And then this what you're wearing

8:31

is Fitch.

8:32

Fitch. Don't take my word for you. I don't

8:34

know. from American Pod. Exactly. Should break through.

8:36

No. No. We

8:38

just watched American Union this weekend. Right. Right. No. We

8:41

just watched American Union this weekend. Great

8:43

movie. fucking great movie.

8:45

Like, better now than it was

8:47

in twenty twelve when it first came out. I was like,

8:49

this this is That's why so because

8:51

those ages that time has gone off on those films.

8:53

Oh, really, really? There was a show where

8:55

y'all reviewed movies -- Exactly. --

8:57

and we could watch these movies. The

8:59

largest the problem is

9:01

if we were to do American Pie

9:03

review, oh my god, we'd have to say this. The

9:05

installments would start with, like, a

9:07

Jackass like these movies are not these are

9:09

gonna say a lot of shit you, we would not say, we don't

9:11

mean to back that. And we and listen to

9:13

some shit. Many of the things they

9:15

are doing are problematic. Filming

9:17

of the girl changing even if they were

9:19

just broadcasting it to their friends. Dude,

9:21

it's it's my guy. He's the other

9:24

president in review where we launched these the last

9:26

couple months. Uh-huh. And, like, and you're

9:28

right. So so problematic. Even

9:30

reunion, Stiffler's storyline, very

9:33

problematic. And now it's twenty twelve, but, like,

9:35

still, is I a lot of these he says and does

9:37

for comedy. Am I probably not worth the

9:39

joke? But otherwise, movie.

9:41

Fantastic. And I was like, there's a vibe to this. They just they

9:43

understood the assignment. They understood We're gonna

9:45

go back ten years, get the crewman together

9:47

again, do something special.

9:49

Imagine how blown my mind was when

9:52

I realized movie made written directed

9:54

by the COBRA Cai team.

9:55

What? And I'm like, these

9:58

motherfuckers just. They do.

9:59

They understand you. Real good.

10:02

Check it out. Bitch.

10:03

Bitch. Bitch.

10:05

Yeah. Yeah. No. That was Fitch.

10:07

whom

10:08

I think enough? Definitely. I think it's

10:10

filch. I think it's not filch.

10:12

Fitch. Fitch from American Pie.

10:14

Fitch from Abercrombie. It's Fitch from

10:17

Harry Potter. You're getting close to there's

10:19

some, like, sex words that are some kind of

10:21

dirty slang. It's like the It's dirty

10:23

slang. Who am Harry Potter jokes?

10:25

Bill

10:25

just from everybody. Fuck. Damn it. He's the old

10:27

man. He's the old man in it. Yeah. I think he I

10:29

think he's the old man with a little cat. He was one of

10:31

the halls. Sure. Yeah. The way he's

10:33

doing a dish light.

10:35

Also to

10:36

In Jason state. Also

10:38

He is an Andor. The

10:42

water guy. He's an

10:43

16:32

You slept to

16:35

the nine

16:35

months, and this is how I want

16:37

to see the baby. Great. I I'm interested

16:39

in this because I've I've talked to you

16:42

for for hundreds and hundreds of hours on

16:44

and off camera throughout my life. And I

16:46

feel like there's been I've grown up with you in a lot

16:48

of ways. You've grown up with me together

16:50

in this crazy journey called kind of funny.

16:52

Right? I feel like there's been a lot of things that

16:54

we've said that over time, we've changed our

16:56

thoughts on our opinions on. You don't want kids? There's

16:58

one of the kids being a big one. Yeah. Right?

17:00

I remember we've talked ad

17:01

nauseam about you and a

17:04

potential second we know dog

17:06

or a new

17:08

we know dog eventually and this took a long time ago.

17:10

Went and poured he no longer with us. Here we

17:12

are. I went

17:13

over many of the stories about

17:15

I remember you talk about separate a meaner dog. I remember you

17:17

talk about wanting the colors and certainly say

17:19

name a certain thing. How much

17:21

of that do remember

17:22

and how much of that is still

17:24

accurate? none of it. Oh. So so

17:26

what was it? And what is One plan always was

17:28

that a admin named Portillo after Portillo

17:30

is the Chicago hotdog restaurant. Right?

17:32

you all heard the story, or if you haven't go watch

17:34

the Gregway about it, of, you know, got

17:37

rainy to Fortillo trying to get out of getting another dog

17:39

with my ex girlfriend or whatever, ex wife. And

17:41

so if we get this dog, you let me name it Portelo. I

17:43

mean, right? Follow-up with Portelo.

17:44

Follow-up with the Weeter dog breed. And I was like,

17:46

yeah, the next one I will get I

17:49

WAS ALWAYS SAYING WOULD BE A BLACK AND TAM

17:51

MINI. AND I WOULD NAME IT C. J. AFTER C.

17:53

J. HOT Wings IN COLUMIATE, M. THAT WOULD CONTINUE

17:55

TO BE THE NAMING SCENE. And

17:57

that was in Lifetime ago, obviously,

17:59

before Jen,

17:59

before Ben, before anything like that. When it was, you

18:02

know, when the

18:03

unit was me importing. Right?

18:05

And, like, you know, who comes and goes from that situation is a

18:07

different conversation, but it was me and porty, and I was very

18:09

much talking about getting my next dog. And

18:11

that's what's

18:12

been interesting about this is that, you

18:15

know, This is very much us getting the

18:17

family dog. We're getting a family dog now. We're too low.

18:19

We're too low. We're too low. Another that's a great name

18:21

too. And it's that's the sad

18:23

part about this. Not a good name. is

18:25

that Portillo was such a great name. You know what

18:27

I mean? Yeah. Like, if only I could

18:29

just get another dog, which is a Portillo,

18:31

are you? Mark.

18:33

You know what I'm saying? Don't tell you to let people do that. I

18:35

know. I but I knew I'm joking. I can't do

18:37

it. You know, that that's that's the problem is that you

18:40

porty is was such a, like,

18:42

when Do you get a name so good even

18:44

the nickname is, like, also unique and

18:46

so good? Yeah. Yeah. Love it. Yeah. I mean,

18:48

people name their kids junior all the

18:50

time. Poor junior. that was one I've seen

18:52

about taking people up on the cloning chip. You ever see that?

18:55

You can't see that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Thought about doing that.

18:57

But I see well, the first time I ever ran into this

18:59

American Life, one of my favorite podcasts, It

19:01

was actually when they were doing the HBO show. And there's a you

19:03

can still get it right now. h go get it on

19:05

HBO now or Max or Go or whatever it is now.

19:07

You go there. and they got it up there and go find the one about

19:09

clothing. And there's this old farmer who

19:12

had a prized LongHorn Steer.

19:14

Right? I mean, our bowl. III that's that's a different

19:16

country also.

19:19

He

19:19

had Oprah Winfrey cloned as well.

19:21

Anyway, he had this bowl that

19:23

he had cloned by the University of Texas.

19:25

Obviously, years ago, cloning was very early.

19:27

they were like, hey, your bowl keeps winning all

19:30

these fucking not awards. That sounds like he's

19:32

like up on a podium. You know, he keeps

19:34

getting ribbons and shit. We love to clone him

19:36

and and he was like, yeah, sure. No problem. So, like,

19:38

oh, you're bull's fuck crazy. The

19:40

bull dies. The original

19:42

bull. They clone this bull. They give the God

19:44

Apple. And this bull is, like, out of

19:46

a fucking horrible heap.

19:48

He's like, knocks

19:50

the dude down all the time. They're they're

19:52

filming b roll. And the wife comes out and

19:54

she's like, he knocked on that again. He

19:56

knocked on that again. He had ripped open his

19:58

testicles, like a the man. The

20:00

man's testicles that had ripped open by his

20:02

cloned bowl. like, this super thing

20:04

of, like, he's just not, like, whatever the

20:06

fuck ray ray ray.

20:09

I was

20:13

like, actually,

20:15

on the nose. What's gonna ring? On

20:18

the windows. You're

20:20

doing great for the Knicks. It's okay, but

20:22

it's like you're more spending like this. And I was like, I

20:24

don't even know pet cemetery, Portelo, nor do I

20:26

wanna spend that much. I did it. You Like,

20:28

what is it? Like, I show up, my shot

20:30

at Twitter at the cloning people at one time.

20:32

Like, do it for free. They never respond.

20:34

Yeah. Like, I'm done. I'm done. I'm done.

20:36

So, like, a

20:37

bull going crazy

20:40

is one thing. Like, what is a

20:42

cloned potato I'm

20:44

gonna do. successful men.

20:46

You know what I'm gonna do? That's a problem. You know

20:48

what I mean? You stop at cemetery. Same way. Would

20:50

you go female Portilla? Would you be cool with

20:52

that? Or would you be maybe

20:54

different options? No. We're so I've we've gone in

20:56

a different direction totally. We're it's a family dog.

20:58

We need to that's the thing about it. Right? I think I talked about this in

21:00

the episode, you know, where he passed or whatever. It was

21:02

just like, you know, porting

21:05

a nice relationship

21:05

was so special because it

21:08

was like, us against the

21:09

world for so long to the point of, like, you know, I

21:12

know I've said it before, but,

21:12

like, you know, he wasn't a

21:15

pet right in that he was. He was my son, but

21:17

he was also more of a attack Yeah.

21:19

I'm an appendage of me. Right? Like, he was another

21:21

arm. I'm like, you know what I mean? That's what's still so

21:23

painful about it. Is that he

21:24

was always there. So he was always there

21:26

through anything. It's like, the

21:28

next dog won't go to less play spring

21:30

break, and then next dog won't go to

21:32

e three and do all these weird you know what I

21:35

mean? Like, It will be the family dog. It will

21:37

be the dog Ben grows up with. It'll be, you

21:39

know, even right now, you guys talk

21:41

about starting to look for dogs, starting to look

21:43

into it. It'll be a dog that, you know, home

21:45

with Jen who still works from home. Right? Like, it'll

21:47

be a completely different relationship than what we

21:49

had. So it's very much like, no.

21:51

I'm

21:51

not I'm not putting my

21:53

foot down and being like, we're getting a black and tan and

21:55

it's being CJ because I love that

21:58

restaurant. It's always been my thing, kind of thing.

21:59

So what are the parameters that

22:02

you guys are talking about now. We're still

22:04

talking, oh, I mean, we're renegade people. You know what

22:06

I mean? Like, Ben's got way too much renegade shit already

22:08

to -- Not even enough. -- doing best to do. Exactly.

22:10

You know, we're we're fourteen months in.

22:13

Yeah. That's too late to get out

22:15

now. That's really it. Like, you know what I

22:17

mean? I would say there's certain, like, color

22:19

combinations were not stoked about or whatever. And so

22:21

we have Can you get a can you get a long haired

22:23

one? No. Nope. That's off the table. Oh, why

22:25

is it? As long haired I mean It's so

22:27

much fun. You have your thing. Go for everybody.

22:29

They're disgusting. No way. Like, I'm

22:31

fucking dust buster moving around. You

22:33

pick it up. We've got some packs and

22:35

tape. the long hair that lives underneath

22:37

our house, but

22:40

not underneath the house. We're

22:42

on the second floor

22:45

neighbors downstairs. Okay.

22:47

That's a longer down there. We don't feed her

22:49

at all. She's been crying for help.

22:51

I haven't heard her crying in a couple of

22:53

months. No. She's

22:55

the cutest fucking dog.

22:58

Like, I can't believe how much of an

23:00

upgrade the long hair weiner

23:02

dog is. I didn't even know it was a thing that

23:04

existed until I fucking saw her. Sure.

23:06

Like, I hear about lung. I heard, you

23:08

know, I don't know, the That means nothing

23:10

to me. I couldn't even imagine what that would possibly look

23:12

like. The cutest dog

23:13

there. It's so soft. This

23:15

little tiny baby. I feel like

23:18

She's,

23:19

like, half of Portillo size, and she'll never

23:21

grow bigger. She's a little tiny baby. Oh my

23:23

gosh. She's adorable. She's just such a bitch whenever

23:26

I, like, take my take the

23:28

trash out, barks at everything. Sure. Yeah. But

23:30

then, like, if I leave if I leave our back

23:32

door open, I'll just

23:33

hear, like,

23:34

And

23:35

then she'll, like, go up our stairs. So it's, like,

23:37

being

23:37

our house chilling. It's all great.

23:39

It's awesome. It's all great. Yeah. It's fucking great. Yeah.

23:41

It's, like, chills in our house and, like,

23:43

doesn't bark because, like, obviously, it's our

23:46

home, so she just doesn't care or whatever. But I don't have

23:48

to practice place. And she'll just, like, go back

23:50

downstairs and just a little tiny little

23:52

thing. Yeah. Do you have a pooch?

23:53

No. I mean, I got three children

23:56

and they're dog enough. I feel like

23:59

maybe one day,

24:00

but I was I I

24:02

was raised with just outside

24:04

pets. And

24:05

so inside pet is a big jump

24:07

for me. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. And What's

24:09

all classes in outside pet? because you're from Oklahoma.

24:12

Right? Well, so I'm originally from Alabama. I live in

24:14

Oklahoma now. And so we

24:16

would have you know, the the

24:18

big gated yard with the dog

24:20

outside with the dog house, you know. Simple enough.

24:22

Damn. You know, like that. So

24:24

you don't I I Dude,

24:26

I totally understand that.

24:28

Like, I don't

24:29

know if I had any family members at

24:31

the time that ever had an inside

24:33

pet.

24:33

everything was always outside or

24:36

sometimes the cats would be inside also, but

24:38

for the most part, the cats are just always

24:40

outside. Thank you. The idea of a dog house is, like,

24:42

the idea of, like, jocks at high

24:44

school. Where I'm, like, there's no way that's

24:46

actually real. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

24:48

I can't imagine. It's all, like, Is it was

24:50

it all nailed together? Like, the time

24:53

Yeah. We we went to we'd move a couple

24:55

times

24:55

and so you'd have to get a new type of

24:57

dog

24:57

that built together. Something it's

24:59

My It was always like

25:02

like gosh. I'm

25:04

trying to think of the materials like

25:06

super hard plastic

25:08

type shell that they would be inside of it.

25:10

It looked like an igloo. Yeah. Exactly.

25:13

He knows every family fucking had

25:15

that background. My dad was just real he's a

25:17

big clean freak, and so dog hair would just drive

25:19

him nuts -- Yeah. -- never inside

25:22

pets. And so

25:22

but my wife and

25:25

her family always had inside dogs.

25:27

And so it's just a push and pull where

25:29

when we first started dating, I did get

25:31

her a dog but this was a

25:33

little demon. I'm talking. First of all, we were we were living in

25:35

apartment of town where we weren't even

25:35

supposed to have pets and he

25:37

chewed up the carpet. Yeah. Oh, you

25:40

know. So we ended up she

25:42

had a aunt that would took care of dogs. We ended up passing that dog

25:44

along because it's just too

25:46

much for us at the time. Sure. But we

25:48

had, like, a little experiment, I guess,

25:50

I would say for that. But now with kids,

25:52

and I and her her parents

25:54

have a dog, and my kids love that dog. I could

25:56

see us doing it eventually. But right now,

25:58

let's just I'm focused on raising

25:59

these girls so they can raise the dogs.

26:02

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Are you are you kids

26:04

or were they when they were young? because,

26:06

again, you know, Ben's about to be fourteen months

26:08

old. Were they obsessed with dogs? I

26:10

won't

26:10

say obsessed. But my I

26:13

have one who's I'm

26:15

trying to do the math. Now eighteen month old -- Okay.

26:17

-- who, like I said,

26:18

she is in love with

26:21

my mother-in-law's dog or my

26:23

in laws Yeah. And they live right next door to

26:25

us so they can get as much as they

26:27

want. And

26:27

but now every dog to the dog's leaf Trevor,

26:29

and now every dog she sees on TV, every little

26:31

stuff is Trevor. traffic traffic. Yeah. And

26:34

so she's the only one who's really had

26:36

that connection because my other two are a little bit older, and

26:38

they've seen us get the dog, but she's been born

26:40

with the dog. Yeah. I've seen Ben Ben

26:42

never have that. assessed with dogs. Mhmm. And it's

26:44

our own doing because, like, you know,

26:46

obviously, he knew porting, wanting as much as

26:48

a baby can know a dog for six months or

26:50

whatever. Right? But he's then grown up now. We

26:52

have all these pretty pictures on the wall. And so,

26:54

like, every morning for a long time, we'd walk him out

26:56

there and go, yeah. High dog doggy, and

26:58

we all wave. And now he just does it on his own. And

27:00

he'll be having dinner and turn and just wave to the

27:02

portty pictures or behind it. And so then,

27:04

like, on street if he sees a dog.

27:06

It's always is your dog okay. Are the baby oh,

27:08

yeah. And he will come up and just cuddle him.

27:10

He's the guy. He's the queen

27:12

of his dog. like, to the point

27:14

that now with the dogs. The other day, the Navy took him out

27:17

for a walk. Yeah. They they sleep on the dogs. I have

27:19

photos of him sleeping on my friend camps

27:21

his dog. Like, sucking your stomach's

27:23

sleeping on dog. the other day, they were at for a

27:25

walk. And, like, he's he

27:27

wanted to get you know, he's working on

27:29

a walk in, so she was walking them, and then he wanted to sit

27:31

there and watch dogs in the park. And when

27:33

they left, he's burst into tears. And so

27:35

it's like, that's like one of the motivating things. I'm like, alright.

27:37

It's time to get back on the horse here. Like, you

27:39

know, get it. because I also want it grow up

27:41

with him. You know what I mean? Like, I want that to be there

27:43

for him and then you have that kind of bug. You better

27:45

fucking pull the triggers soon. Alright. Okay. because you're

27:47

running out of time,

27:49

You

27:49

can be with that. No. You're

27:50

running out of time because you're running out

27:52

of Ben Cooten as time right now. What? He's

27:55

in that prime area. I

27:56

don't mean to introduce a girl. I

27:59

mean TikTok potential.

28:01

Okay. Okay. One of my favorite genres

28:03

babies and dogs together. Babies are like, it

28:06

might stumble upon a babies and dogs video. I'm

28:08

like, I'm gonna interact with this as much as

28:10

possible because it's the cutest shit of all

28:12

time when it's just like, It's

28:13

some, I don't know,

28:16

soft r and b song playing, maybe an r and b,

28:18

but, like, you're

28:20

playing your own sound It's a

28:22

it's a soft song and it's just like it's just

28:24

a little baby cuddling dog and it's

28:26

always like super big and furry and it's

28:29

like, Oh my gosh. She don't even even

28:31

start where, like, the the dog ages up and,

28:33

like, ends up dying, like, oh my god. Those are those are

28:35

just Right. backward Valentine. Yeah.

28:37

But, like, babies and dogs together

28:40

a great genre. And right now, this is the time to capitalize on

28:42

it. Do you wanna be an Internet superstar

28:44

or not? Dude, if I tell you I've been

28:46

trying for a long time. You

28:48

know what I mean? Yeah. Like, we've been keeping men mostly off the Internet. But if

28:50

this is what it takes -- Yeah. That's right. Okay. --

28:52

there's a video that's been years. Yeah. Like, Andy

28:54

doesn't see him grow. Like, I've

28:56

seen him grow. This is

28:58

not The other one is Ben's face is super reveal, but this is like

29:00

him just cuddling this dog before turning around and

29:02

sleeping on her chest. Now, recommendations

29:04

right now. Let's make some rectos. Yeah.

29:07

Okay. or ultimate

29:09

clickability,

29:09

likability, marketability,

29:12

potential. Obviously, golden

29:13

retriever. Mhmm. You put

29:16

This little fucking Ben guy.

29:19

Yeah. Next to Golden

29:21

retriever -- Sure. -- like a little puppy. Right?

29:23

Yeah. And then film

29:24

them growing up together.

29:26

and

29:26

get a little time lapse maybe. Yep. We're talking, like, a

29:28

week

29:28

of work for producers on this. Tim and those

29:31

people.

29:32

Samoyed. rank

29:34

number two. Big guy.

29:35

White fluffy heaven. There

29:38

you

29:38

go. It's gonna be a weener dog. We're gonna get a weener.

29:40

Okay. We're

29:41

we're we're shopping in China. Okay.

29:44

Third,

29:44

I'm thinking like

29:46

a husky.

29:48

Something

29:48

large. Look at the Simon Oiad.

29:50

I mean, we're gonna fill don't

29:52

need this. Look at this some loyal dude.

29:54

Look at how a fucking these are

29:56

little polar bears, man. Because, like, also,

29:58

but think all that let's Kevin throw it

29:59

back

30:00

up there. You're

30:02

gonna tell me

30:04

there aren't ten to fifteen ticks hidden

30:06

in that far somewhere. You know what I mean?

30:08

I know from experience with the white dog, you can see

30:10

the really. I've heard your stories, horror stories. Who

30:12

you can find it takes so long? It's easy. Yeah.

30:14

I can find it when they're, like, they bite them, like,

30:16

oh, you've got the treatment. I'm gonna crawl off

30:18

into this bed now. I live in this bed. It's problem. Lyme

30:20

disease. Exactly. Okay. So

30:23

those maybe those are off the table. We could do

30:25

some

30:25

tests with the qualms. Can we?

30:27

I

30:30

think it's more of the chemistry of

30:33

a tiny baby with a big dog. Mhmm.

30:35

I think that's ultimate clickability.

30:37

on. Because of what you're just mentioning, the

30:39

hugging factor.

30:40

Really can land a little non factor. Like,

30:42

when you think about this and you can have a weiner dog

30:44

with him. Right? That'll be arguably the

30:46

same size as Yeah. But he'll be the he'll be the second alternate

30:48

dog, like, to the main dog, which will be,

30:50

like, the golden tree where the semoid that you

30:52

eventually get. Yeah. If with

30:54

the Weenadage, that's the CoStar baby, if that

30:57

I love the greatness of

30:59

the side. Wow. you

31:02

say. Appreciating

31:04

me trying to figure out the best clickability

31:06

for the family dog. Oh, that's a great

31:09

video goes god damn. Dude, one of the one of the reasons

31:11

that I I have to Whatever could be

31:13

Ben. Exactly. Making me un One of the

31:15

reasons I went Pomeranian is there's AAAA

31:17

pomer that we we used to follow on

31:19

Internet Explorer's named Chewy, and we still follow him.

31:22

He and he's always been a little asshole.

31:24

Like, he he's beautiful, great content. He has

31:26

a little pose. It's all great. But he

31:28

could tell he's he's trouble. But recently his

31:30

-- Oh. -- parents just had a real

31:32

baby. Uh-huh. And now seeing the fucking baby and

31:34

he's right. The the quick ability, Craig.

31:37

off the charts, you know. And seeing this damn

31:39

asshole dog, and all of a sudden, be nice to

31:41

his little human together. It's fantastic stuff. Yeah.

31:43

You see it. Start the fuck now, dude.

31:45

You gotta start the Look. Time for them

31:47

to see me working on it. And I have photos of porting with

31:49

him. You know what I mean? Mhmm. Enough enough enough stuff

31:51

and sitting with him. Cooper and the chat, he's

31:53

got a a fix for the text get

31:55

a monkey instead, he says. Oh, yeah. Get

31:58

a monkey in That's another That's a quick

31:59

ability for sure. Any animal

32:01

Like a dog and another one

32:03

together, like, a little pig, a little monkey. Come on and

32:05

pull my hand wants to have chickens.

32:08

Uh-huh. And one of

32:08

the things she tries to upsell me on is that the

32:10

chicken's weed takes. It's a pretty chicken.

32:12

It's a pretty good idea. Never gonna get chicken. You

32:14

32:33

this point, on the flat. Well, that makes sense. how

32:35

it goes. I love it. You know that little stress you

32:37

feel right now? Sure. Hi, Jen. You're on the

32:39

kind of funny podcast. How are

32:41

32:43

32:45

32:48

get chickens. How does that make you

32:49

feel? We'll

32:51

32:52

He says you'll never get chickens. You'll never

32:54

be woman enough to make it happen

32:56

32:57

chickens.

32:59

tell her they'll come home

33:01

a roost. ban from the egg

33:04

33:04

You hear that

33:05

end of your ban from the egg train. I'm

33:07

allergic to eggs. He

33:10

says he's allergic to eggs, but I think it's just like

33:12

Mike. He doesn't like him.

33:15

wet pants. I

33:17

would never believe it was, like, seventeen,

33:19

eighteen. Alright. Well,

33:20

I just wanted that to be motivated for you. I want you

33:22

to be motivated by that. Okay? Well,

33:23

know what? Take

33:24

me a lot to get pushed over

33:26

the the edge. So I appreciate

33:28

it. But take a lot for the chicken across the

33:30

road, you know what I'm saying? Exactly. Alright. We love you,

33:32

bye. There's a fox in the chicken house. Watch out.

33:34

That that should be more anger.

33:36

Look, get pushed over the edge

33:38

corner. I think she oh, it could go either way.

33:40

Yeah. It could be more fun. You want me

33:42

to get the chickens? Oh, you know what's a

33:44

good Maybe I'll never get chickens. I don't know. Alright. So we're still

33:46

workshopping this. Brink one

33:48

golden.

33:49

Get a

33:50

golden retriever. Number

33:52

frank to not to go along with the golden, to

33:54

pair along with it, the monkey. What's someone like?

33:56

Yeah. What I don't like first off monkey grand

33:58

idea. What I don't like is that

33:59

stupid golden shavers Like --

34:02

Oh. -- they always look like they just got

34:04

clocked with the crowbar. Oh, my

34:06

god. Seem they're very basketball. That's most

34:08

dogs. Oh, that's kind of Airbot.

34:10

Airbot. Yeah. Don't even start with

34:12

me. Like, don't start right now.

34:13

They don't even like animals. You know what I

34:15

mean? Yeah. I what what? Now the monkey

34:18

I like You know what I mean? There was a hardware store when I was

34:20

growing up. A hardware store where the fuck is

34:22

this store going to die.

34:24

Totally shit. Remember, I

34:28

was raised I was born in the early eighties. He's not, like, you know, I wasn't raised in the eighties.

34:30

He's like, Nick. I was like, dude could, like,

34:32

freeze time, like, fucking zack

34:34

boards. He'd be, like, time.

34:36

He'd, like, where the fuck is this

34:38

story gonna go? You want predictions?

34:40

Give me a prediction where the story's about to go. I mean, did the

34:42

hardware store have, like, a monkey? They did

34:44

they did. No. freaking up. Did they let it roam around? No. We didn't we

34:46

had a glass cage in the back. Oh. So that when

34:48

you're you brought a kid like me, your dad

34:50

wants a lug nut or whatever you're driving

34:52

out with the book. parks

34:55

me at the monkey and I just watched this monkey do his business in there and then, you

34:57

know What do you have money? monkey I'm sure you did. I don't I'm I

34:59

don't remember. Like a chimp or

35:02

what what I like the monkey. Like the monkey, you know, outbreak in France.

35:04

Oh, okay. Marcel. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Marcelo,

35:06

a good another good TikTok thing

35:09

to fall on right now. I don't even know

35:11

if it's like a genre. I think it's just a certain video that I've been seeing quite a bit. Little monkey,

35:14

even a bunch of different fruits. I

35:16

like that. It's just like a little

35:17

tiny cute, little little

35:20

baby. and sometimes wear in a suit. Oh, no. We're in some sort of costume.

35:22

Rest up. And they just hand him, like, here's

35:24

a pair, and he's just like, fucking pair

35:26

of shoes. He's good to

35:27

my algorithm right

35:30

He's just eating different little fruits. Oh, gosh. Monkey

35:32

eating. monkeys number two. Okay.

35:34

Yeah. That'll that'll agree with.

35:37

We

35:37

don't know, number one, monkey number two. Because,

35:39

oh, my god, can you imagine

35:41

Ben

35:41

walking with the big golden retriever

35:43

as the monkeys riding the

35:45

monkeys that might get retubers

35:47

back. Yeah. Millions numbers now

35:49

on this. We got a

35:50

book. We got a book. It's one of those open to

35:52

flat book. find out what's going on, and they're for kids or whatever.

35:54

And I forgot to get most books.

35:59

the

36:01

There's all this black stuff

36:03

on the white. I don't know. The jackass

36:05

is going. But it's

36:08

about the zoo sending

36:10

a kid different pets. but eventually he settles

36:12

on a dog, of course. Mhmm. But I had never heard of because it's

36:15

like, I asked the zoo for a pet and they sent

36:17

me an elephant. But he was too big. They

36:19

sent me a draft he was too tall.

36:21

He sent me a lion. He was too fierce. Like, Louis Zoos don't do this. You know,

36:23

in a

36:23

lot of the kids' books, I I read the band. Like,

36:25

I get where they're coming from. The comfortable place

36:28

of honesty. this sets up on real

36:30

expectations. That's bullshit. And then it's a

36:32

dog. I'm like, what fucking dude's gonna

36:34

congratulations? You know what I mean? Like, I sent you

36:36

a puppy. Don't even be starting out as

36:38

one fucking spot wants to go find puppies or babies animals on the farm?

36:40

It's a piece of shit book. Don't gonna be

36:42

started. Anyway, you got you

36:44

got some stories. I'm about to say something that's probably

36:46

really controversial. So prepare for me to

36:48

get canceled. And that was a final deal with ramifications.

36:52

Uh-oh. Like, I

36:54

don't

36:55

agree that

36:57

it's okay

36:58

to lock

36:59

up black dogs in a

37:01

pet smart. Right?

37:03

I think there

37:06

might be a buck coming before you go. As wait.

37:08

I don't think there might be a buck coming before you go. As wait. I'm waiting for it

37:10

now. But, like, man, back

37:12

in the day, it was it was just a

37:14

treat to, like, visit a pastor. He's just, like, he's a little

37:16

puppy. He didn't he didn't really think of how fucked up

37:18

it was. You know? Mhmm. You just can't do it anymore.

37:21

Remember I worked there? I worked at

37:23

PatLAN.

37:23

I did that. I sold it. I sold

37:25

it. from the Bazuz. oh

37:29

Zoos, I think, provide

37:32

important

37:33

services. Okay. But,

37:35

you know, I'm not

37:36

a fan of, like, you know, the the ways

37:38

of being in statement that any

37:41

court has just made. Like, you're not

37:43

wrong, but the way you said it. Is

37:45

it well, okay. So, I mean, when

37:47

it comes still preservation and stuff like that.

37:49

As you all know,

37:50

listen to the Danube Tardan show every

37:52

day, every hour, every minute, every

37:55

week on, they have Ron

37:57

McGill, who runs Zoom

37:59

Miami.

37:59

He's been running Zoom Miami forever, and he's

38:02

like super all about conservation

38:04

and preservation. And he's

38:05

just he's the g. He's the goat, and he always just talks

38:08

about how he hates

38:10

when people buy

38:12

tigers Like, Gihir, he's talk tells

38:14

a story about how Shaq

38:16

really

38:16

wanted Ron McGill to help him

38:18

get a tiger. Yeah. Like, I want a tiger.

38:20

Please help I want a tiger. and

38:22

he's like no, I don't want people to have these

38:25

animals because it's like you're only getting

38:27

these

38:27

animals or

38:30

like how cool it is that a tiger. For, like, the

38:32

enjoyment of years of selfie in front of me and a tiger, like, all that shit.

38:34

It's sadder. I used to live

38:36

five minutes from the tiger king.

38:39

spot. know what goodness. And Shaq

38:41

tried to invest in that -- Yeah. --

38:44

probably to get it tied. Yeah.

38:45

So this is a while.

38:47

Here we go. No. I live literally, if there was a tornado

38:49

that come through, I probably have tigers in my

38:52

yard. Oh, my god. Like that

38:54

close. Like, My my

38:56

wife's family lived their all their lives. They've

38:58

been a ton. Her grandmother, Joey.

39:00

Right? Her grandmother, Joe Zaddick, friends,

39:02

Joe Zaddick, big wrestling fan

39:04

as it showed a

39:05

little bit. So I know all about it, but

39:07

I completely understand what you're getting at

39:10

with Jack. agenda. Yeah. These

39:12

Yeah. Just a lot of athletes and celebrities.

39:14

It's it's

39:15

I already have all

39:17

these Ferraris and Lamborghinis, but I don't

39:19

have a fucking tiger. Right. them aligned. You know, I

39:21

want that. But Tyson -- big. -- a sonic

39:23

thing. Yeah. Tyson is on a bunch of tigers. But,

39:25

like, yeah, I think Zoos

39:27

provide important services there's a lot of

39:29

disease out there that don't do the right things when it comes to what animals should

39:31

be held

39:32

captive and stuff like that and

39:36

But, yeah, Zoom is cool. I love Zoom. Oh, I wanna go to Zoom

39:38

and Aquarium. I need to know what you think

39:41

about forums now. I'm

39:43

the not breaded,

39:44

like The farms, they let them roam

39:46

more and free, but they kill them all at the

39:48

end. So Well, you mean, like, so cattle.

39:50

Cattle, chickens -- Okay. -- and if I'm eating it, you know, I'm

39:53

selfish. Bluckers. Bluckers. Bluckers. Bluckers. Bluckers. Bluckers. Bluckers. Bluckers.

44:58

excluding croutons

44:58

from my salads. Oh, proud

45:01

of you. because, like, some decisions. I never put the I

45:03

never put the crew tones, like, if I'm even healthy,

45:05

what's the point of putting this little piece of bread in

45:07

there? The treat. But god damn, I got some

45:10

Texas toast. fucking butter and garlic croutons.

45:12

Definitely. But as far as I'm pregnant, I'm like,

45:14

45:24

a tough war, and just put a bunch of fucking rands

45:26

dressing in there. No. It's a

45:28

pretty well rounded salad. They're nice and packed

45:30

to the brim. I'm really excited to dig into

45:32

one. Did you how much

45:33

prep are we doing?

45:36

Is it pre baggy

45:36

salad, pre portioned out, or did you get, like, a head of

45:38

lettuce, and you're peeling, you're washing that you're doing that? No.

45:40

I'm not getting a bag of carrot. No.

45:43

No. No. Well, because I don't like peeled carrots. I like

45:45

46:10

46:13

46:22

half. Sure. I wasn't able to have one

46:26

today, obviously. we did some stuff on the floor. show, and I kinda had to rush

46:28

over and I still got stuck in traffic. Why don't I

46:30

think enough, we'll talk about the traffic later

46:32

too. I'm so sorry. I'm just sick of these

46:34

fucking detour. I'm sick of I'm sick

46:36

of cutting off the lane, the I just

46:38

go around it. I don't do it anymore.

46:40

Uh-oh. What I do what

46:40

I do now is I turn at the park and

46:43

I go down

46:44

sunset. Come up the back

46:46

way behind the mall. Mhmm. That would help

46:48

me a lot if I knew where that was. I'll look into it.

46:50

I'll look out. Yeah. Andy,

46:51

you brought up Tupperware. And

46:52

I had to start the other day because

46:55

in

46:55

my family, we eat a certain meal

46:57

very often. Why did they not

46:59

already make

47:00

spaghetti colored top away? Oh, God.

47:02

It's very sensitive. But this spaghetti

47:03

and the tough point. It's a tough point.

47:06

Right? That's it's something that I did. That was

47:08

one of the, like, one of those depressing moments

47:10

of when I you're a hundred

47:12

percent correct. And

47:13

one time I the I'm gonna charge the dishes,

47:15

ran the dishes shortly after Ben was born. Mhmm.

47:17

Pulled it out. His bottles red because I

47:19

wanted to pick a sauce in there and it just got

47:21

into the bottle. God damn it. This door is right. Make blue

47:23

top aware. And then be, like, once it turns purple,

47:26

that's spaghetti top aware. Yeah. Yeah. And this

47:28

guy has spaghetti blue time. Then

47:30

we learn colors to a very color baby. Hey. That's the second wave.

47:32

Mhmm. So, honestly, there was nothing

47:34

cooler in my life than being a little kid

47:36

and, like, they give you crayons. They're like, if

47:38

you combine those two, it makes a new

47:40

color. I was like, yeah.

47:42

I don't need a number

47:44

of color. Yeah. That's the old

47:48

shop. of the blue

47:50

and yellow do that. That's correct.

47:52

But there was nothing cooler.

47:55

than impressing the other kids in class when you're like,

47:57

damn, I'm missing a crayon or am

47:59

I? Looks like it

48:00

looks like I'm missing the color purple.

48:03

Don't need it. Don't need it. See, but then I

48:06

remember there was always a little smart alecked. He

48:08

will not be named, but, you know, you might know.

48:10

Again, I You know,

48:14

I immediately would jump

48:16

to, like, alright, cool. What colors can can

48:19

be created from this. It's, like, how cool you get

48:21

the green, you get the purple, whatever. But then it looks like,

48:23

oh, if you mix them all together, it looks

48:25

like brown, potentially black. Are you doing it? But did

48:27

you know that white is the absence of color. And I'll I'll, like, get

48:29

the fuck out of it. Yeah. Like, how am I supposed to do

48:31

that with my crayons? If my kids are with

48:33

crayons, it's not worth it. You got your

48:36

story, Andy. you

48:38

thought about the

48:39

white tray on? It's only really

48:41

good for construction paper. Right?

48:45

I'm not

48:45

a fan. Yeah. You know what I'm I'm

48:47

trying to I just

48:49

totally erased the white crown from me. It's everything that

48:51

really It does exist. a new It's

48:53

just a stretch of color. Right? Just skin colored crayon, which there's other

48:56

skin tones than the -- The weird baby. -- the

48:58

Caucasian brand.

49:09

now, we're gonna go ahead. So what dressing are

49:11

you putting these salads?

49:13

No. No. No. Normal

49:15

ranch. Wow. But You have the other day.

49:17

I have the time. Wait. Wait.

49:19

Wait. What? gotta that day

49:20

of

49:23

eating this out.

49:24

you know, over the top, you put the

49:26

dressing. I think you've been, like, day of prepping, you know, I was,

49:28

like, why would I do that? That's something No. I don't

49:30

want my crew to be all discussing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

49:32

No. Thank you. But again, I'm very I'm

49:35

gonna I'm very

49:36

much like,

49:38

if you if

49:38

I went to a restaurant and you're like, hey, we're a

49:40

little light on sauce today, I'd be like,

49:43

totally

49:43

cool with me. I'm

49:44

okay with not having that much thoughts on the thing that

49:46

I'm about to put into my body.

49:49

I'm

49:49

a dipper. Steven

49:52

was solid. Dawsonless solid. Oh, salad

49:53

dressing you too much that will kill it. That will be

49:55

the yeah. You can't do that. I'm not a

49:57

dressing

49:57

guy at all. you're seeing

49:59

they

49:59

were undressed. Yeah. undressed. You know?

50:02

Just like just like like in it, you know.

50:04

Really? I tell you the body like this. Look

50:06

at this. And I'm you get three

50:08

kids as well.

50:10

Damn, it's crazy. I can't even imagine. No.

50:12

That sounds good. It's too dry. I just don't like

50:14

ranch or or dressing like

50:16

that. Like, if we if we're mixing it up, like I

50:18

said, I like

50:18

sauces with other things, but not ranch. It

50:20

never makes pizza in ranch. Never.

50:22

And

50:23

listen, come on. I'm I'm not a young

50:25

younger, of course. And I never a young younger man's

50:27

young. Mhmm. But I don't

50:28

I don't do that. Yeah. One is showing us

50:30

condiment cups here. This is first salad dressing. Yeah. Of

50:33

course. You can't make it early. I thought this was

50:35

Play Doo. You know, it does look like Play Doo.

50:37

That tracks. That tracks. Yeah. Yeah.

50:39

But you can't make you can't mix it, like, in the

50:41

morning. You gotta bring it separate. A hundred percent. Does it cost

50:43

you a salad in front of all of us? Well, you should

50:45

just bring a separate bottle of ranch here to the French people.

50:47

Did you just say that? Yeah.

50:49

There's don't make you know what I'm saying? There is

50:51

one. Yeah. Is that

50:52

yours? because maybe yeah. Because maybe Is

50:55

he I brought

50:55

stuff to yeah. It is. I brought maybe I

50:57

brought stuff to make a salad. when

50:59

we first came

51:00

into the studio. No. And then maybe I forgot

51:02

it was there, so I threw all of the equation. And

51:04

the court says his use of the fridge is

51:06

my favorite thing in the world. for one

51:08

specific reason that I'm sure everyone's already given you shit about. But you

51:11

weren't here what days? Is

51:12

it Monday? Monday? You weren't

51:13

here that's Friday.

51:16

Right? We're

51:16

blessing. I was all boosted up. Oh, man. I felt like shit

51:19

dude. Oh, man. Yeah. That was

51:21

not good for me either. Bless

51:24

is like, hey, who's mountain

51:26

dewiser? I really can I have one of

51:28

these mountain dewers? And it turned into, of course, a

51:30

group conversation about what's the origin

51:32

of the three

51:32

thousand mountain dew's in the fridge right now, and why are

51:35

they all opened? Alright? And now

51:37

I've heard the whole

51:38

saga of this. So I understand Andy and

51:41

Nick bought a bunch of mountain dew's just to take

51:43

off the tops and get those damned, call it

51:45

Duty coat, double x p. Alright. Yes.

51:47

We're just grown children. and

51:49

that's all that it is. But now there's just about a bunch

51:51

of bound dues and you and Nick don't

51:53

want these not sugar free, not diet

51:56

naive, just mountain dues. Be

51:58

like, no. Now

51:59

from It it

51:59

takes a special day to, like, alright, I'm gonna drink this mountain dew mountain dew.

52:02

Yeah. I don't have plans tomorrow. What is this

52:04

sort of thing? But the levels to

52:06

which blessing

52:08

wasn't wrapping his head around this

52:10

and was like scared

52:12

to drink these mountain dew's as if you guys did

52:14

something wrong. And Raj was like, no. It might

52:17

be a little what? But, like, it's fine.

52:19

But Bless did not trust us. Did not trust anybody. There's no

52:21

one in particular. And I was very

52:24

surprised that, blessers

52:26

right now. fuck that. He ended up

52:28

drinking it, which I was proud of. Kimerson knew. Yeah. So, like, the day that Warzone was coming

52:30

out, Nick walks into the studio with

52:34

a

52:34

big ass fucking black like a convenience

52:37

store bag. And he was like, Andy,

52:39

go to my desk. Bring bring the bring a

52:41

little gift to me. He

52:44

was like, ring one kiss. I go to his desk. Oh my god. This guy bought, like,

52:46

six mountain dewes. He's, like,

52:48

double x p time baby, but the website

52:50

was down at

52:52

the time. We were all sad about it. And then I think

52:54

the next day, I've

52:56

played Call Duty from home, tested out

52:58

the code, I was like, it works.

53:01

called up. So

53:01

back, Mike, and I was like, Mike, read me

53:04

off or take a picture of every goddamn

53:06

code. I need you to open every mountain

53:08

dew in there. They'll send

53:10

to me I got them double, like, Speedpay. I

53:12

love that. Yeah. Love Then Nick tried from home too, and

53:14

they're like, you have to create an account. He's like, fuck this. I wonder

53:16

if he's like, how do I do that? Well, you have to tell

53:18

your activation account. to a Mountain Dew He's not not

53:20

create a Mountain Dew account, but

53:22

there's no change. What? I mean, man,

53:24

he's weak. No.

53:26

It was a real, you know Think we oops. I jumped through for x being

53:28

certain games. No. They started giving a

53:30

fuck less and less. Sure. Sure.

53:33

Sure. a over time. So Greeting.

53:36

You know, do you have a mixed carpito

53:38

degrading? That's what

53:40

if I

53:40

Like, I got three things talking about. What

53:42

else do you have for? I said four. Yeah. I said four thing. No, man.

53:45

This is COVID booster.

53:48

I

53:48

was really about this COVID. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come

53:50

53:56

booster that

53:57

one more time. Bivalent to booster for

53:59

the bivalent strain of COVID. I wanna never

54:01

turn of either of these

54:02

things. I feel out of

54:04

It's about the same thing. I don't know. It's just funny. because that point is I

54:07

already showed my ass because I I did a reaction and

54:09

I was like, oh, the chance gonna see

54:12

the drugs he doesn't know when he's gonna be on his stupid ass. It's Okay.

54:14

That you are eligible for probably now.

54:16

because, like, the last booster I had was,

54:20

almost

54:20

a year ago, exactly a year ago. Oh, I haven't got yet. Oh,

54:22

great. Don't worry about

54:23

it. I'm interested in

54:26

growing people. From my at

54:29

Earth's conferences. Yeah. Everybody

54:32

there told me that the yeah.

54:34

I took the the brand new booster

54:36

along with the flu shot. And

54:38

the thing is Last year's boosted. something there. Last year's boosted

54:40

totally fine. Had no issues. Mhmm. In fact,

54:43

that flew home, like, twenty four

54:45

hours later, totally fine. And

54:47

I thought that would likely be the case this time

54:49

around. Then about

54:50

twelve hours later, I'm playing

54:52

Overwatch with some of the

54:54

dudes and I'm like, go blind. I'm

54:56

feeling feel a little bit tired right now. I'm kinda feeling it. My arm

54:59

is getting really, really sore. I'm gonna take a shower,

55:01

kind of wind down for the night.

55:03

Just going on. dude.

55:05

It Anytime I thought it was the worst.

55:06

Right? Anytime the worst the time I

55:08

thought it was like, this is the worst it can

55:11

be. It got worse. And it's

55:14

like the

55:14

most miserable I felt in a long time where I am my

55:17

teeth are chattering.

55:17

I'm shivering nonstop underneath

55:20

the blankets. and

55:22

it's like this fucking sucks, dude. I'm just like, down in

55:24

bottles of night

55:25

quail to just go to sleep. I use it.

55:27

Don't use it. Oh, really? I

55:29

mixed it into the bowl.

55:32

I'm doing Red Bull. I'm doing Michael

55:34

take it to bed. No. It's wrong.

55:36

Luckily, I was fine by, like,

55:39

the evening

55:40

of the following day, but

55:42

man, it was it was really, really

55:44

rough. Mhmm. And I I'm so glad

55:48

that, like, I'm still COVID free, everybody. Man, you're one

55:50

of the unicorns there. I'm one of the

55:52

unicorns. And I intend to keep it

55:53

that way. Alright?

55:55

I assume

55:55

you've had it. I did. Of course. I got

55:57

it. August

55:58

when it so it was fresh in

55:59

my area. What are you assuming? What the fuck

56:02

is that mean? He got travel travel for

56:04

wrestling. Yeah. so much. What I mean, I

56:06

And he's filthy. I had

56:08

a I had a a death in the family, and

56:10

I had to travel back down with mama. Mhmm.

56:12

And Well, I I like to rep my

56:15

state, but they

56:15

were not. They weren't feeling the best

56:18

stuff. They were not out of the mess as well

56:20

or just Yeah.

56:20

So some so I went to a funeral. I tried my best to stay as good as I

56:22

could, but I definitely caught it. Yeah. And

56:23

so but I I feel like it was good. And by

56:26

the time I

56:28

feel like that

56:28

wore off the the right probably, right around when my immunity wore

56:30

off. The vaccine came out perfect time. And I was

56:32

like, okay. I don't know. Yeah. I think

56:36

the timing was that you missed you because you were doing the boys reactions

56:38

on screencast with us. And I think you had to miss a couple

56:40

episodes because you got COVID that.

56:42

Mhmm. Unfortunately Cody Hagglass asked

56:43

where the

56:46

code in the Nike will caps. Yeah.

56:48

Double x three in the Nike will. I love it.

56:50

The now do

56:52

I feel

56:53

absolutely just powerful and

56:56

super like -- Sure. -- invincible going back home. And

56:58

I'm probably gonna play a

57:01

little

57:01

bit too

57:02

dangerous.

57:03

Who knows what I'm gonna do when I go back on for Christmas? Am

57:05

I finally gonna

57:06

catch COVID when I go back on? I'm gonna call

57:08

it down a bit? But then you you got to

57:10

shot. You don't feel

57:11

like That's something. I have such a peace of mind. I feel so

57:13

good about having this,

57:15

like, fucking

57:17

I I asked for two

57:19

boosters, I don't think. Oh, wow. Yeah. They only gave me one. Yeah. It's it's such a

57:21

weird place we're in right now with it where

57:23

it's like it is and would be easy

57:25

to ignore it. You know

57:27

what I mean? And I find myself occasionally doing that. You

57:30

know, I I had it in

57:32

June. And then flying home to Chicago this

57:34

last time around. Right? It

57:36

was like coming

57:36

into the airport. It's like, you know, I had to put a mask on. And then Jen's like, I

57:38

don't know if I'm gonna do it, and then she did. And it was

57:40

like, there's both but it's like a real conversation you look

57:43

around and it's like, wow, we're

57:45

lucky both days we flew, you know, the way we booked

57:47

it, it wasn't packed. So it was like, we

57:50

have distance

57:50

and what do you wanna do? And, like,

57:52

when we had flown to

57:54

Montreal

57:55

earlier in the year, and that's before we

57:57

got it and before the the latest rounds of

57:59

boosters or whatever. It was

58:02

like, boom, super serious mask done,

58:04

yada yada. AND THIS TIME

58:06

THE TENNER WAS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT AND I

58:08

DON'T THINK IT WAS JUST PEOPLE

58:09

BEING Lazy OR PEOPLE IGNORING. IT'S

58:11

JUST LIKE I I to just going places, especially in Chicago. But

58:13

then even here in San Francisco, it's gotten more relaxed

58:15

of, like, it doesn't feel like you

58:17

need to necessarily, which

58:20

is both a

58:20

comfort and then totally raises your awareness of dewinding to though?

58:22

What's going on? I don't wanna get it

58:24

again. Yeah. I definitely don't wanna get

58:26

it again. I I feel like it's more

58:29

for me following the leads of the people around

58:31

me of, like, like, it's getting

58:32

more and more rare that I hear that anybody

58:34

gets it. And when people get it, it's, like, it's

58:37

not a surprise. You're writing major through July.

58:39

It seemed like everybody was getting it right when they were coming back

58:41

from e three and comp a comp like there was

58:43

just such

58:43

a rash of it breaking up. Well, the word

58:45

thing too is, like, to

58:47

this day, me and Gia don't know where we got it. It's

58:49

like there's not like, oh, we got it from this trip. We

58:51

got it from this day. It just it just happens, you

58:54

know, and it's that blame blame Ron Funges. I

58:56

went to his comedy show, and that's when that's we all got

58:58

it. Uh-huh. No. You blame me on your

59:00

personal blame. Well, I blame you just for the bad

59:02

vibes you put out. Oh, gotcha. Kevin had

59:04

just had it. So I wouldn't be surprised that

59:06

there's still someone who's supposed to be busted out. at

59:08

that point. Yeah. But that You could have faked

59:10

this. You could have faked this. No. It's ours wasn't.

59:12

It wasn't. We'll I got it. Oh, I

59:14

got it from you. I mean, jengel, that's over the last

59:16

week. But, like, again, that's just how that works. You know?

59:18

Yeah. Like, we're all there and we're

59:20

like, there's you weren't as close to

59:22

Kevin as I was, so they probably hopped off in line with me.

59:24

We're doing a lot of hugging that

59:26

day. And

59:26

I kept me like, hey man, I just had COVID.

59:28

Maybe we shouldn't be this close. This is not what he said. That's

59:30

what he said. It's dumb

59:32

that I think you're pretty scared. Wait. I like,

59:35

I'm not even joking. I'm pretty sure

59:37

that's happened where you you were hugging me, and

59:39

I was like, I just got going. No. You didn't say that. You didn't say I just

59:41

tested negative today, and then you would've made it out. Oh, sure. I

59:43

did say it just says

59:46

the negative. Hey, Santa, my knee. Oh, you sat on your knee. Oh, I'm so

59:48

excited about it. I'll take COVID for you. Here's

59:50

what he said. Speaking of Santa though,

59:52

59:54

59:56

1:01:27

I ever had one thing. But you

1:01:31

came

1:01:31

up, you said four. You said four? Just You just

1:01:34

wanted the space of the show. There's

1:01:35

a good chance that I only ever had one, and

1:01:38

that was, like, the Wow. I'm

1:01:40

Neil

1:01:40

Brown. Good for me.

1:01:42

1:01:50

1:01:51

you you don't want me to hold you

1:01:54

1:01:55

I see you eating Wendy's

1:01:56

one day, and I'm like, what about the salad? You want me to say that to

1:01:58

1:01:59

1:02:03

me. I say that never

1:02:04

see it because you're never here. Never

1:02:06

here. I feel like I haven't seen you in person quite

1:02:08

a thought

1:02:10

while. Yeah. develop

1:02:12

that to this dog situation. What?

1:02:14

So what are the next steps? Well,

1:02:16

finding

1:02:17

one I guess,

1:02:18

you know, like,

1:02:20

Like,

1:02:20

we were close to pulling the trigger. Like, really, really close.

1:02:23

But it just didn't feel right

1:02:25

and it was too fast. feel right

1:02:27

it was too fast You

1:02:28

know what I mean? Where it's a conversation we've had for a while, not right,

1:02:30

of, like, oh, Ben really loves dogs. And, you know, we should get

1:02:32

a dog one day and we're you know, about one. And

1:02:35

then it was, like, While

1:02:37

we're on Thanksgiving break, watching him

1:02:38

interact with our friends dogs and my family's

1:02:40

dogs, it was a thing of like,

1:02:42

man,

1:02:43

he really loves dogs. So

1:02:45

we should start, how when do we wanna do this?

1:02:47

And yet again, it was like, well, if

1:02:49

the stars lined up, which is a big if. because there's

1:02:51

a lot going on there and we're not just, you

1:02:53

know, accepting any dog. location. Right? We want

1:02:55

it to be weekend. Only if somebody ends. It'd be great to have it for that

1:02:57

Christmas break. We're taking. Right? We're taking the last two weeks off here in

1:02:59

the month for kinda funny and

1:03:02

all that stuff. So it'd be like,

1:03:04

that'd be great to be home with all three of us and then introduce a dog that way.

1:03:06

I was like, okay. Cool. Let's when

1:03:08

we get home, we'll worry about that.

1:03:12

And so we're flying back on that Friday. And on that Friday,

1:03:14

one of the ducks and the people we follow

1:03:16

was like, hey, there's some

1:03:18

dogs

1:03:18

that need homes here or whatever.

1:03:21

And so it was like, mhmm. And then we each Jen

1:03:23

and I each independently messaged

1:03:26

that the the ducks in place, and they

1:03:28

mess they were funny they already talking to Jen and I didn't

1:03:30

know, but they just me back. We're like, hi. Sorry to hear about Fortillo.

1:03:32

Like, we think we're talking to your wife, and I was like, oh,

1:03:34

that's hilarious. We're both trying to surprise each other. Okay. Don't

1:03:36

worry about it. Thillillo. And then we had

1:03:38

the real station them

1:03:40

and each other, like, Friday night into Saturday

1:03:42

morning. And so then it was like, okay. Cool.

1:03:44

Like, do we wanna go meet this dog? Do we wanna

1:03:46

go do this thing? Or if you can't go,

1:03:48

though. Like, the moments you meet, it's a done deal. Well, this you remember my porting

1:03:50

story, right, where it was, like, let's just go look

1:03:52

at dogs. How far are we driving to look at dogs?

1:03:54

Thirty minutes. We're getting a dog today no

1:03:58

matter what? straight. And so it was that thing and then I just melted down. Like, you know what I

1:03:59

mean? because I hadn't

1:04:02

had time to

1:04:02

actually process it going forward. You

1:04:04

know what I mean? Yeah. dorm.

1:04:07

They're a dorm. Don't get me wrong. Just not my dorm. Oh my god. I had

1:04:09

that time to process it. So, yeah, I just

1:04:11

melted down on Saturday. Just

1:04:14

like I mean, like, grieving all over again. Like, it felt like the week in

1:04:16

the past. And this is two

1:04:18

Saturdays ago, not this Saturday or whatever.

1:04:20

And so, like, that was enough to pump

1:04:22

the brakes let's not

1:04:24

move on this yet. Let's actually fill out our

1:04:26

emotions on this a bit more. And so a

1:04:28

week removed into this weekend, it was like,

1:04:30

okay. Cool. Like, I've had time to

1:04:32

think in process. And if, obviously, if we wanna

1:04:34

try to get something for, you know, the end of this month,

1:04:36

you need to move and stuff like that. Yeah. So we started talking

1:04:38

to people and doing stuff like that, but I doubt it will

1:04:40

come together. And for the end of but we'll see. This

1:04:42

is hard to just get a dog. Dude, it is crazy,

1:04:44

man. I mean, like, I it's it's been, you know,

1:04:46

now. Moose is turning too soon and

1:04:48

Tourette's turning

1:04:50

one. you

1:04:50

turned one, but the day we got him was coming up, oh my god. It's like

1:04:52

a week away. Yeah. Like, that's so wild to

1:04:54

think about. And, like, you just could so attach these dude.

1:04:56

Sure. Sure. They it just, like, become

1:04:59

such a day my life has

1:05:01

changed forever. Right? Having having them and taking

1:05:03

care of them and everything. And this last couple of

1:05:05

weeks has been really hard because we're dealing with our

1:05:07

first kind of health situation with them where Moose was at

1:05:09

the dog park and, like, this little dude loves to run.

1:05:11

He is a little track star going

1:05:14

super fast and like me. Mhmm. Just like

1:05:16

Andy. Yeah.

1:05:18

Just running and he just out of nowhere was running

1:05:20

and just just squeaks. And

1:05:22

it's like, fuck. Like, what weren't easy? What could

1:05:24

this be? And we were worried it was that

1:05:27

like, it it's a variation of a kind

1:05:30

of dog version where he his

1:05:32

knee got dislocated. And so

1:05:34

we

1:05:34

we took him into the van it's

1:05:36

this whole thing. He's so depressed walking around the house. Sure. He's so sad

1:05:39

to see him, like, like, hobble at

1:05:41

a microphone.

1:05:41

Okay. This isn't

1:05:44

good. And then we're like, he just will the doorbell rings or

1:05:46

whatever the hell happens. He goes running and, like,

1:05:48

forgets that it's messed up. So he just, like,

1:05:51

falls down and, like, drifts along. It was, like, business

1:05:53

such a disaster. So we we take them

1:05:56

in. They do x rays. Of course, it's so much

1:05:58

damn money and all that stuff. But,

1:06:00

like, whatever. and it's just

1:06:02

You don't have insurance form. I do. I do.

1:06:04

But, hey, I guess, what the insurance covers and doesn't cover. You

1:06:06

know what I mean? This is my fucking thing where I was like,

1:06:08

you know, porting was great for so long. And you had these

1:06:10

big problems, it not back to back, but he blew

1:06:12

up both knees. Remember, like, a year apart or whatever? It

1:06:14

was that thing of, like, they wouldn't ensure

1:06:17

once that happened. And I was also, like, but would you have covered

1:06:19

this? No. Insures is always trying to get out of the fucking

1:06:21

shit. Dude, and it's good. It's all clear.

1:06:24

over when happened. Yeah. They come back. Like, that's that's the side of

1:06:26

saying, like, this is, like, jokes to what

1:06:28

extent, like, the obvious extent. But then,

1:06:30

like, there's a reality to

1:06:32

it where So we get the

1:06:34

news and it's just like the worst bad news ever for us of. They

1:06:36

are like, you know, he's gonna need to get

1:06:38

a shot twice a week.

1:06:41

for the next

1:06:41

month. Then for the next

1:06:44

six months, once a

1:06:45

week. And then after that,

1:06:46

once a month for the rest of

1:06:49

his life. Jesus, man. And I'm like, are you fucking for

1:06:51

real's dude? Like, this sucks. Yeah. This

1:06:53

dude, he's too. Like, I'm like, oh, this sucks.

1:06:55

I'm like, he's just the he's

1:06:57

so so full of life's loves running, and it's just like it's so

1:07:00

sad, Gia can't stop

1:07:02

bursting into tears. At the thought of

1:07:04

every time she watches

1:07:06

it, like, our Instagram real is like everything our suggested shit is just

1:07:08

pomeranian's doing shit. Yeah. And, like, every time

1:07:10

she sees one running, she just starts crying.

1:07:12

And I'm like, it's

1:07:14

okay. And, like, she seemed like

1:07:16

pomerie's run up the tracks and jumped through hoops. So I'm like,

1:07:18

Moose was never gonna do

1:07:20

that. She's like, He was just

1:07:22

a career cut show. We don't know. And

1:07:24

I'm like, I do know. His

1:07:26

potential, but his potential, but I'm

1:07:28

I need to to send a picture to Kevin.

1:07:30

I I wasn't gonna post

1:07:32

this on the Internet, but now that we're here,

1:07:34

I'm going to show it to you guys.

1:07:37

Little moose was stoned

1:07:38

out of his fucking mind when he

1:07:40

got the shots. And are

1:07:43

you

1:07:43

for pain? Yeah. Yeah.

1:07:46

It's for pain for for him to, like,

1:07:48

for it to settle better

1:07:50

or something. But it'll never be located directly.

1:07:52

It dislocated to never get back

1:07:55

it. What the hell? And apparently, it's it's a

1:07:57

pomeranian thing. That's like,

1:07:58

there's nothing that, like, you could have

1:07:59

done nothing to prevent this. Yeah. Look,

1:08:02

because there if I could see it through space

1:08:04

and talk, I'm tripping balls on the way. Yeah. But

1:08:06

he just sucks now because, like, he's he's so

1:08:08

depressed and so sad about it. And then Toronto's like,

1:08:10

yo what the

1:08:12

hell? Like, point with me. Like, let's have fun and it's just, like, so sad to see.

1:08:14

He's a huge deal come too to red eye. I know. I'm fucking scared. his

1:08:16

part.

1:08:19

he can never kind of

1:08:20

run the way he did ever

1:08:22

before. That's gonna be okay. I'm sad.

1:08:25

that

1:08:27

because I'm thinking of, like maybe,

1:08:29

like, the

1:08:30

wheels in the back?

1:08:32

I know.

1:08:33

Make sure you Yeah.

1:08:35

Yeah. Like Theresa.

1:08:35

Yeah. Yeah. Growing up, there was a weeder dog near my

1:08:38

house that had that, and we called them the

1:08:40

weedermobile. We

1:08:42

thought that was hilarious. He was so cool, though. He fucking loved it. He was

1:08:44

running around. We

1:08:45

love it. Yeah. They don't know if it was great.

1:08:47

Yeah. There. I hope it

1:08:50

doesn't end there. and I don't think it will, but they do the

1:08:52

the fear of God thing where they're just like, hey

1:08:54

man, like, here's what we could do. Here's what

1:08:56

it could cost. Here's what it could. But even if we

1:08:58

did it all, we're not so sure, but they're like, but if

1:09:00

you don't do these shots, he's probably gonna injure

1:09:03

his other leg because he's promoting

1:09:05

this. And like I've heard this before, So it's like, that's the

1:09:07

scary thing. I'm just like, seeing porties journey. It's like,

1:09:09

oh, god. Most bigger shit out.

1:09:11

Don't look like I've already got off

1:09:13

easier than him. I mean, all the

1:09:16

whole studio. We

1:09:16

go back to work from home. Mhmm.

1:09:18

We don't know.

1:09:19

Cyberdemonic legs. I'm fucking into that. Robot legs, and that

1:09:21

would be so sick. Yeah. Also, though, I

1:09:23

wouldn't try to give moves that

1:09:26

much power.

1:09:27

Like, he's he's an

1:09:28

asshole. He kicked me in

1:09:30

my sleep and stole my

1:09:32

leg. not kicking you out of the

1:09:34

bat. Sorry. No. What can go wrong? What can go wrong with this weaponized dog? Oh my

1:09:37

god. What a

1:09:39

horrible horrible idea. I

1:09:42

love it though.

1:09:43

Ladies and gentlemen, we

1:09:44

only have one more kind of

1:09:46

funny podcast

1:09:47

of the year. Mister Moreland,

1:09:48

we'll be here next week. com

1:09:50

slash k f podcast with your questions.

1:09:52

But right now, Alex writes in

1:09:54

a little introspective question to end

1:09:56

the year. What were your favorite

1:09:58

highlights from twenty twenty two? It could be anything like movies, TV games, life

1:10:00

events,

1:10:04

unforgettable moments, whatever you

1:10:06

wanna remember from this year. A big question. Mhmm. When did

1:10:08

we

1:10:09

when

1:10:12

did Venom

1:10:13

to let her be carnage company. Hey. How's it going? you. Last

1:10:15

night. Oh, December. Oh, fuck. Okay. Never mind. What's going on

1:10:17

with your eyes right now? You're

1:10:19

like an eye lash or some

1:10:22

shit. You gotta believe Don't rub,

1:10:24

please. because I'll tell

1:10:25

you what what I thought about recently that

1:10:26

it this maybe laughed

1:10:27

so hard. is

1:10:31

being in the theater. One, Venom two, and Venom

1:10:33

left to be counted. And we're

1:10:35

just, like, despondent.

1:10:37

We're just, like, wow. What if

1:10:39

fucking awful experience as was. And then

1:10:41

you see produced by

1:10:43

Andy Circus. And

1:10:45

it goes, told

1:10:47

you. Warner. It's

1:10:49

such a fucking

1:10:52

idiot. I loaded

1:10:55

this coin you Anyway, shape or form Now it

1:10:57

was a junk or not. I was thinking about

1:10:59

that earlier today, like, on the way you over

1:11:01

here. And then this question comes up, but

1:11:03

I was like, not

1:11:06

sure when that took place. It feels you could

1:11:08

have told me it was February, I would have believed that it was

1:11:10

February of this year. My favorite quote of the year

1:11:12

is that

1:11:12

definitely snow back.

1:11:14

Mike, telling Roger, I love lying to you. I love lying to you, Roger. it's just

1:11:17

the loveline iraq it It's

1:11:20

just him in a nutshell. It's him

1:11:22

in a nutshell. We hate him and we accept him, you know. That's true. I still

1:11:26

in vain of your venom thing. I once in

1:11:28

a while, randomly crack up thinking

1:11:30

back to drastic world, dominion when

1:11:33

I won't leave unionizing or

1:11:35

whatever. You're just fucking river.

1:11:37

Okay. But it's where it's a wet man. He just leaned over to me.

1:11:39

You're happy about this. And you're happy to hear you. What's his

1:11:41

name? walked into the theater with

1:11:43

your Jurassic World shirt,

1:11:46

and we're like, the world the world the world the world

1:11:49

the world the world the world we

1:11:51

know, we will be justified. Oh, on Kingman,

1:11:53

we were right on. You were wrong on Dominion

1:11:55

we were all right right about it wasn't good. You were so excited about we sat

1:11:57

down in the first ten minutes. I was

1:11:59

like, this

1:11:59

is

1:12:01

this is your thing. You

1:12:02

know? Yeah. You're gonna champion this. You know,

1:12:05

the first time it has worked

1:12:06

that bad. First time it worked bad.

1:12:09

It was the first time that it's the

1:12:11

ten minutes that included the job. I

1:12:13

don't remember. The ten other ten minutes were,

1:12:15

like, the retrospective and

1:12:17

now this video

1:12:20

were, like, Here's

1:12:21

a topic of scientists around the world.

1:12:23

They're more about it on the Instagram video. Terrible. Oh, you mean the giant grasshoppers? Yeah.

1:12:25

Yeah. That's better. I'm

1:12:27

sorry. Yeah. Exactly. moms

1:12:30

Grasshoppers. I'm an idiot. I don't know

1:12:32

what I'm talking about. I don't have any answer

1:12:34

that would surprise anybody. But, like, launching the studio

1:12:36

-- Sure. -- like, I I'm an

1:12:38

emotional guy. I did not expect a burst into fucking tears coming out. And it's funny I rewatched the

1:12:43

the intros recently. because

1:12:46

we're about a couple months out. Like, it's crazy, like, how much things have changed and, like, how we're just in this space

1:12:48

now. And it's

1:12:51

funny because watching it. Like,

1:12:54

the camera's far enough way that you

1:12:56

don't see, like, that I'm crying the

1:12:58

entire time. I start crying walking up.

1:13:01

Like, It

1:13:02

looks like, oh, I just started crying when Mike was interviewing me. Uh-uh. The entire time. I'm just a mess. Yeah. And I was just

1:13:04

such a special it

1:13:07

was such a release So,

1:13:09

normally, shit, we did it. We're here. Yeah. So much work went into this.

1:13:11

So that one, I definitely won't ever forget. And honestly, for the record,

1:13:14

it's not that I didn't

1:13:17

That's funny where you're going with. It's not that I

1:13:19

didn't expect you to burst into tears. I didn't expect you not to be able to

1:13:19

talk. I couldn't talk. Yeah. When you get up

1:13:22

to speaker speaker. Yeah. Exactly. When my tries to

1:13:24

interview, you

1:13:27

just choke out, whatever. You The key phone was like, I've never happened to you.

1:13:29

Right. Like, that again, I cry a lot. I get

1:13:31

emotional lot. Never to that extent. That was, like,

1:13:33

such a weird moment for me where I

1:13:35

was, like, whoa. I'm learning about

1:13:37

my body at all. I didn't. I've never been coming to bed right now. She's crazy.

1:13:39

But otherwise, man, top gun maverick. Just

1:13:41

what an experience? Like, I just

1:13:44

can't believe that

1:13:47

movies like that can still exist. And it just reminds

1:13:49

me of stories my dad would tell me

1:13:51

about watching the original Star

1:13:53

Wars and Theatres and stuff like, I will

1:13:55

always remember walkie out of top on Maverick and

1:13:57

just as stoked as I was and hitting

1:13:59

up

1:13:59

Andy and Nick be like,

1:14:02

We've reviewed hundreds of movies together.

1:14:04

Like, we just hit a new high. Here

1:14:06

everybody. And then I saw it one more

1:14:08

time. Yeah. Yeah. And to have

1:14:10

your to have our be

1:14:12

blown out of the fucking water in,

1:14:14

like, no way this movie is gonna be that good and have it exceed every expectation.

1:14:18

It was just wild. Yeah. Eldon Ring. Goddamn. Yeah. Eldon Ring for

1:14:20

me. Mhmm. This took a big portion of my

1:14:22

life. There there is the before Eldon

1:14:24

Ring era and the after

1:14:26

Eldon Ring era. Like, that's what

1:14:29

this year has been

1:14:30

for me. The rehearsal, over the with you.

1:14:32

rehearsal bonding over the rehearsal

1:14:34

with you amazing

1:14:35

Amazing. Other than

1:14:37

that, I I don't I don't really know, man. It's a one yeah. It's a big question to come out of the blue. Got

1:14:39

a war, of course. I mean,

1:14:43

honestly, like, it's this might be my

1:14:46

favorite year of content ever, period. Like, just I I can say that. Yeah.

1:14:48

For sure when

1:14:51

it comes to movies, But I

1:14:53

think just like movies, TV shows, video games, like, overall, it's

1:14:55

like damn twenty twenty two. Really fucking brought the heat, man.

1:14:57

Yeah. Everything ever all at once

1:14:59

was this year. Like,

1:15:01

that's mind blowing to me. I'm telling a killer cop, but Kai, having to kill her sitting here all the names,

1:15:03

what I meant. Yeah.

1:15:04

Yeah. That was the thing.

1:15:06

But there was just so much

1:15:11

so much good. And I hope that it just keeps rolling in. Twenty twenty

1:15:13

three is like stacked as well potentially,

1:15:15

but I wanna throw out

1:15:17

there, Marvel snap. then I wanna follow-up and ask, are

1:15:19

you still snapping? New season launches tonight, obviously.

1:15:21

You know, and this is this is

1:15:23

a topic for for another day.

1:15:25

potentially. But, like, I I've

1:15:28

actually been struggling

1:15:29

with time management in in a

1:15:31

way that I haven't

1:15:32

in

1:15:34

in years, maybe ever

1:15:36

with

1:15:37

being at the

1:15:38

studio during the day, having

1:15:41

so many different video games that

1:15:43

I want to play, whether there's so

1:15:45

much linear experiences, things like Calisto, but

1:15:47

then combining that with the

1:15:49

ongoingness of Marvel Snap, where, like, I yeah. I'm in multiple times a day. Like, I'm doing all the challenges. Like,

1:15:51

I'm still super hooked on it, but then

1:15:54

now also trying to be a Pokemon

1:15:56

master. you

1:15:59

catch them all. You know? It's I don't have choices. And then

1:16:01

and then I have to watch all these TV shows and

1:16:03

all, like, movies and all this stuff. Yeah.

1:16:05

And it's just like, what a time

1:16:07

to be alive? let alone hang out with g, hang out with

1:16:09

the pups, hang out with everything, eat and all that other shit. It's just like, it is. It's a lot of

1:16:12

stuff, man. I was telling you, yeah, you

1:16:14

know, I I got a waragronoc obviously is

1:16:16

a mass beasts

1:16:18

and fantastic and yet again, but there were nights

1:16:20

reviewing it where I was like, I'd

1:16:22

like

1:16:22

to stop right now and just some snap.

1:16:24

But I know I to push to hit the review

1:16:26

embargo. I need to get this done. It's not it's not a commentary on one being better than the other. It's just the fact like, Marvel Snap

1:16:28

gets its hooks into you that way. And

1:16:30

that just keeps on going. You're good?

1:16:35

No. Thanksgiving was real hard. And I felt way behind because of

1:16:37

it. Right? Because it was a simple thing to what you're

1:16:39

talking about where

1:16:42

Jen

1:16:42

is, you know, all in on Pokemon. And

1:16:44

I started the same night as her that

1:16:46

oh, she loves Pokemon. Yeah. And

1:16:48

I started the same night as her, but

1:16:51

that night even played like an hour of it, like, okay, I'm gonna snap a bit

1:16:53

and then snap the entire rest of the night.

1:16:55

And so when we went

1:16:57

to Chicago, she brought the switch and I packed my

1:17:00

But it was that point where it's like,

1:17:02

you know, twenty twenty two highlight, of course,

1:17:04

is being

1:17:04

a dad in, you know,

1:17:07

that changing and watching Ben, become a

1:17:09

person, all these different things. But it is exhausting period. Let alone what

1:17:11

it was to fly to Chicago and then have these two

1:17:13

wake windows where it's like you're trying to

1:17:15

balance family and activities

1:17:18

and see things and do things and see them also

1:17:20

be a son to my parents and talk to them

1:17:22

and do these it was like, dad would

1:17:24

go to bed and, like, we'd struggle on generals

1:17:26

watching eighteen ninety nine on Netflix.

1:17:28

And I'd get about thirty minutes into that trying to

1:17:30

play snap at the same time and fall asleep

1:17:32

there. So it's like I felt way behind

1:17:34

in the season because of it. So I did not live up to my form. And then the problem I've had with personally is

1:17:40

with the amount of time I can put

1:17:42

into it as a distraction, I haven't had time to craft decks. And

1:17:44

that's such a key

1:17:46

thing where it's like this

1:17:49

season in particular, what I think I maxed out, like, forty

1:17:51

five, where it was just, like, in terms of -- Yeah. -- not not my season pass, my

1:17:54

challenge level or whatever.

1:17:56

where it was just like, oh, you're all running a reveal deck

1:17:58

because there's a reveal thing, but I do not have time right now to sit here

1:18:00

and actually go look into what

1:18:02

I want my reveal thing to be.

1:18:05

I just run a very vanilla deck that I like a lot, but it can easily be clogged out when somebody's

1:18:07

like playing, you know, the meta. Alright. Walnut's that shit. I'm gonna let out carnage. I'm

1:18:10

gonna do this and they're gonna destroy that. And

1:18:12

then here

1:18:15

comes all these fucking doom bots, and then you know what I mean? Anyway,

1:18:17

I'm at the point where I, because of

1:18:20

God of War

1:18:22

and Pokemon, all these other things, that the amount of

1:18:24

times that Gia explains to me how something

1:18:26

works, that it makes her so happy.

1:18:28

And I'm just like,

1:18:30

I love this too. Like, this is great. But, yeah, like, there's, like, new

1:18:32

cards and stuff that I'm, like, I don't know. And she's like, oh,

1:18:34

this is how this works. I'm like, good Lord. How

1:18:37

did we get here? Yeah. That's pretty amazing. Right? A

1:18:39

couple people chat tell to watch and I be watching I back home for Christmas.

1:18:41

Watch out when I got

1:18:43

it for you.

1:18:46

excited about

1:18:47

that. You should be.

1:18:48

Something from this episode

1:18:49

that came up comes up

1:18:50

in Andor in a

1:18:51

way you

1:18:53

won't expect. I don't know

1:18:54

what that means. You you won't know until Andy

1:18:57

comes home from Christmas. Is

1:18:58

it a

1:18:59

it's either a Samoyed

1:19:01

or it's the

1:19:02

game telling you this, you know, it's

1:19:05

a real day.

1:19:08

What

1:19:08

a year it's been?

1:19:10

Yeah. What's

1:19:11

your my life? I could say that assuredly. Why?

1:19:13

Just hard. A lot of hard shit? Yeah.

1:19:15

A lot of emotional

1:19:17

shit? Sure. A lot

1:19:20

of just relationship shit, not romantic

1:19:22

relationship. That's just crushing. Every other relationship? Yeah. But you know what? Actually,

1:19:24

that's

1:19:24

the way. Our relationship's

1:19:27

great. Our relationship's great.

1:19:30

Our our

1:19:31

relationship. Mhmm. But

1:19:33

yeah.

1:19:33

But I feel

1:19:34

like that's that's life sometimes

1:19:36

though. Right? Like, even could be, like,

1:19:38

even though it's the worst thing unhappy I'm

1:19:40

lucky that it's

1:19:41

still this

1:19:42

good. Sure. Yes. Do you have

1:19:44

New Year's resolutions,

1:19:45

or do you feel

1:19:48

like everything it's been what everything that made it hard

1:19:50

is out of your control. Yeah. I think a lot of it's out

1:19:51

of control. I on my New Year's resolution is

1:19:55

to just maintain. Like, I've been having a real

1:19:55

hard time just maintaining. When are you taking time off? That's a big question.

1:19:58

I need to figure that out. Yeah. You need to take

1:19:59

time off. Yeah.

1:20:02

I'm looking. Okay. February.

1:20:04

February? I

1:20:05

don't know. I wasn't saying that before. nothing? The entire month.

1:20:07

You deserve it? We figured it out. We'll figure it

1:20:21

I mean, it'd be you and me asking

1:20:23

Joey a lot about it. Yeah. Yeah. So we got

1:20:25

this Google Watch yesterday. We it says we're on

1:20:27

1:20:30

1:20:34

Authenticator code or whatever the fuck? All right.

1:20:36

Hey,

1:20:37

1:20:39

resolutions for what you wanna thinking? One of my god.

1:20:41

Fucking just lose weight, bro. Get healthy. You're looking

1:20:43

good, dude. I've become

1:20:43

so just disgusted

1:20:47

with myself, man. Really? Like, I've just I've III

1:20:50

got into a decent place

1:20:51

and then

1:20:53

I just, like, is just

1:20:55

a steep decline of every

1:20:56

health. Mental, physical.

1:20:59

It's

1:20:59

just all was

1:21:02

working in such good unison

1:21:04

with each other. Yeah. Like like

1:21:06

my mental health and my physical health

1:21:09

playing, like, the best fucking

1:21:11

co op game you ever play together, going downhill together, like steadily, like, would

1:21:16

fuck up and the other would be like, don't

1:21:18

worry. I got you, brother. And they were just tanking And he saw this climbing here. I know. They tanking simultaneously.

1:21:24

So, like, Yeah. Just try to

1:21:26

like like Tim was saying maintain, but I if anything, just

1:21:32

improve because Like, goddamn. Like, I

1:21:34

was I

1:21:34

I don't know what show I mentioned

1:21:36

this on it. It

1:21:38

may have been a stream.

1:21:41

But I had seen a TikTok

1:21:43

of John Ham being interviewed. Yeah. And he mentioned Did he mention Mizuho? Didn't

1:21:46

mention Mizuho shockingly. but

1:21:49

he did mention he was talking about mental health and depression and stuff like that. And

1:21:51

he talked about he's

1:21:55

a, you know, not

1:21:57

normal to stay asleep in

1:21:58

bed till four PM when you're not sleepy. I was four

1:22:00

pm when you're not sleeping

1:22:03

like, oh, fuck. I haven't been

1:22:05

sleepy. I just do it. For

1:22:06

no like, it's obviously for a reason. But to

1:22:07

me, I'm like, oh, I'm tired.

1:22:09

Let me just say in bed. It's like, no,

1:22:11

you're not tired. Like, there's something that

1:22:14

you need to fix up here, you know. Sure. And

1:22:17

so I I just wanna like

1:22:19

try to improve

1:22:19

that shit. Yeah. because, like,

1:22:21

it gets late and then I sleep until

1:22:24

fucking three PM and I wake

1:22:26

up and I'm like, I'm so

1:22:28

tired, but

1:22:29

I'm not, but I

1:22:30

am Do I go

1:22:31

to the gym? No. I'll just fucking sit here,

1:22:33

watch some shit. And I just,

1:22:35

like, will fight every thing

1:22:38

in my body to not leave the bed. And

1:22:40

it it like, if

1:22:42

you would have

1:22:44

lit my bed on fire, I found

1:22:46

a way to stain it. You know what I mean? Like, that's

1:22:48

how bad it is sometimes. Yeah. So

1:22:50

I just wanna, like, try to get

1:22:52

better at one of those things and then hope

1:22:54

that the co op journey goes into the office. It's there. Are you are you

1:22:56

talking to me? You can do therapy? You can do, like, better help

1:22:59

or anything? I want I wanna do

1:23:02

yeah. I wanna do therapy because I I talk to a psychiatrist once

1:23:04

every like, not often enough definitely.

1:23:06

Sure. It's

1:23:06

always just more of like

1:23:10

a check-in sort

1:23:10

of thing. And I won't

1:23:11

do that anything. We're like,

1:23:13

yeah. That's fine. No. No.

1:23:15

I mean, a lot

1:23:17

of it is There

1:23:18

are suggestions made of telling me

1:23:20

to

1:23:21

eat better, telling me to,

1:23:23

like, find a find

1:23:25

a sketch you'll find a rhythm and it's like

1:23:27

that's impossible for me. I'm

1:23:29

like, just not engineered that

1:23:32

way. But I'd I'd love to

1:23:34

be like, I

1:23:34

I found myself in a really good rhythm before

1:23:36

the pandemic hit of going to the gym and,

1:23:38

like, feeling better about myself. And it just

1:23:41

you just feel better anyway when you

1:23:43

work out. I just yeah,

1:23:44

fucking sucks when you're doing

1:23:46

it, but your mood is better, you sleep easier because you're tired.

1:23:48

And I

1:23:50

I will say that

1:23:52

dealing

1:23:53

with the the Adderall shortage for about three months did

1:23:55

not help

1:23:55

either. Sure. Like, that did not

1:23:58

help any of my

1:23:59

motivation where

1:24:02

Like, it's been a nationwide shortage and people have not

1:24:05

been able to get prescriptions.

1:24:07

And it fucking

1:24:08

sucked, and I finally

1:24:11

got a prescription after over three months, probably closer

1:24:13

to, like, four or five months. It just was

1:24:15

really bad at keeping

1:24:16

track

1:24:19

of time. But we're back

1:24:19

on track there. So luckily, there's been a

1:24:21

lot of headway made there.

1:24:24

And,

1:24:26

yeah outer edges yeah, I just it's

1:24:28

you get into one

1:24:30

funk and it just fucking snowball's dude. It

1:24:31

sucks. It sucks.

1:24:34

yeah hopefully But, yeah, hopefully, Yeah.

1:24:36

Get better and try to

1:24:38

make more routine of that. And not just like

1:24:43

Well, you know, it's a little too late to go to the gym, like, no man.

1:24:45

Like, last night, I maybe it

1:24:47

was no. Yeah.

1:24:48

It was

1:24:50

last night, it was raining. And No. Too bad to go. Sorry. It raining and

1:24:52

I was like, normally, this would be a day

1:24:54

where I'd say,

1:24:55

I won't go to the

1:24:58

gym a day. It's raining. like fuck that. You haven't gone to the gym the other

1:25:00

days when it's halfway or so. Yeah.

1:25:02

So like because I had just gone

1:25:06

the night or two before that, and then

1:25:08

it was pouring and was cold. And

1:25:10

I had every excuse to not do

1:25:12

it, but I was like, no. You've

1:25:14

been sitting around for two hours, not going

1:25:16

to the

1:25:17

gym. You know you have wanted to

1:25:19
