Here comes the accent part of the podcast. - Shag me. (laughing) - Was that good? - Why did you choose to say that? - That's the only thing I could think of. - Hey baby. - You know what I meant? - Hey baby. - Do you know what I want to shag me? - You're thinking of Ryan Gosling, aren't you? - No, I'm not. - You psyched out. - That's all I got. - You want to shag me. - You want to shag me, baby. - I lost my mojo, baby. - Oh, that's a good one. - Mojo? - Yeah, that was a little better than him. - Shag me. Do you know what that means? - That's I know what it means. - Repeat you 13 podcasts. - I don't think anyone said, I don't think he has ever said shag me. - I don't think he said it. - He just made that all. - That covers the first half of the year in movies onto the next. - Okay, yes, onto the next. - Man of Tomorrow comes out in July. - Don't know what that is. - I think it's a Superman movie. - Is it? - I think so. Can we get the research on that? - So it'll be like a Superman too because the newest one just came out in 2025, 2026? - I believe so. You're gonna be excited for the next one. Minecraft II comes out in July. - Okay, I'm gonna be honest, I didn't watch the first one. - I thought you loved it. - I watched it, you fell asleep. - Okay, I'm not gonna lie. I watched the first half of the first one and fell asleep. - You watched it at home? - We watched it at the beach house, yeah. - I thought you would love it. - I did like it, I was just tired. - Okay, that's fair, never revisit it. A quiet place part three comes out in July. - It didn't watch part two, but part one was very good. What is this movie? - It's like a horror movie. - Oh, is it good? - Yeah, it's like you can't talk or else the monsters will get you. - Man of Tomorrow is Superman and Lex Luthor. - And Lex Luthor. - It is a Superman movie. - That is Superman, right? - No. - Lex Luthor is the villain. - Clark Kent is Superman. - Right, thank you. - Thank you for the clarity. - I thought Lex Luthor. - I think he was played by Jesse Eisenberg. - That's a villain. Jesse Eisenberg is a villain. - As Lex Luthor, yeah. - Super intimidating guy. Jesse Eisenberg, I'd be real scared. - The Simpsons movie too comes out in September. - That one, I love, I was never a big fan of the Simpsons the show, but the Simpsons movie was awesome. - I agree, 30 years on television, I have no respect for it. - Spider-Pig. - Spider-Pig. - I completely respect it. - Spider-Pig. - Spider-Pig. - The Batman part too comes out in October. - That one will be good. - That's Robert Pattinson. - Yes, it is. - And Barry Keegan. - Is he in that movie? - Well, he was in the first one. He's the Joker, I think, now. - Oh. - Barry Keegan. - Keegan. - Not in. - Oh, it is Batman. - Okay, you're right. - Yeah, I think he might be in this one. - Frozen 3 comes out in November. - All right, I don't really care about that. - A lot of sequels, trilogies. What do you call a fourth movie? - Quadruple with trees. - Yeah, there's too many of them, I know. - It's still gonna be a great year of movies. The Hunt for Gollum. - Oh, that's like a Lord of the Ring one. - That comes out in December. - Let me hear your best Gollum impressions. - Impressions. - Impressions. - See, that was way better than Austin Powers. - It was horrible, though. - Let me hear the shag me. - Shag me. - And then the biggest movie of the year, in my opinion, the one that's gonna gross the highest amount of money, Avengers Secret Wars comes out in December. - Yes, so the next two December's, we have Avengers movies coming out, both of them. - That's 16 movies. - Yeah, and a lot of them are big blockbuster movies. That might be one of the biggest, highest grossing years of all time. - Yeah, I'm not gonna say it's the best movies, 'cause I feel like when you have some originals mixed in there, there's a lot of sequels, trilogies, quadrilogies. - Quadrilogies. - Quadrilogies. - I try coming up with the word. - I think that this year of movies has been one of the best in the modern era. - I need to see obsession. - Yeah, I do too. - I've seen half of the movie on TikTok already. - It's grossed over $400 million. - What's going on? - He's lowering his chair, so the microphone's at a good level. - Not that highest grossing horror films of all time. Obsession. - Yeah, yeah. - You know, I gotta watch it, that fact. - We did the list. - I posted that video. - That's what I know. - Exactly, there you go. - Yeah, I gotta watch that. And I gotta watch "Pose the Other Big Movie" that came out this year. - Brand new day? - Oh no. - Michael Jackson. - Your boyfriend. - Michael Jackson. - Ryan Gosling. - Oh, the space movie? - Yeah. - What's it called? - Oh, that looked terrible. I didn't even watch it. - What do you mean? - It got like a 94% around tomato. - Oh, really? - That's all the trailer. - Or the highest rated movie. - It's a highest rated space movie since Interstellar. - Fun fact. - Fun fact. - I think. - I wanna watch that one. - Project Hilmarie. - Nice. - Yes, you should know that. - That's your guy. - I was trying to think of it, but I could have. - Shag may. - Shag may. - Shag may. (laughing) Welcome back to the podcast. - What podcast is this? 211? - 211. - 211. - 100 more and we'd be like the band 311. - I have a funny, can I tell a funny story about 311? - Sure. - My former manager at Tilly's was a gigantic-- - Oh my God. - Yeah. - I met one of your co-workers from Tilly's. - Oh! - I don't know. - She came up to me. She was like, and then I was like, what did she look like? - She walked over and she was like, I don't know why I'm waving. You don't know me. I know Zach. I was like, how do you know Zach? She was like, I used to work with him at Tilly's. What'd she look like? Give me a detail. - Like a regular girl. - A regular girl? - Like dark, like light brown hair. - Could have been anyone. I was like, every employee at Tilly's. She didn't, like, I would talk to her for like 30 seconds. - No, she walked away. - 311 was one of my former manager's favorite bands. So he decided to get married to his fiance at the time on 311. They scheduled the wedding date. This guy was like a 35 year old, 37 year old working as a manager until he's-- - I like that. - Goes to the wedding on 311, gets stood up at the altar. - Oh, okay. - I was like, how can you ever, how can you ever listen to that band again? And that's your favorite band. Yeah, that's tough. - I don't know things much worse than that. - That is tough. In other news for 311, they're going on tour with The Dirty Heads this year. - Oh, really? - Yeah, we should go. - Dirty Heads did that song with Alex Vince. - Was that one guy from-- - They did. - They did, yeah, that's our guy. - Podcast to 11. What do we have going on here? - We have fanatics fast coming up, like in like two weeks. - We are playing in the, is it a program that we're playing in right now? - Yes. - We're playing in the program for the American Century Championship. - And we just played yesterday 'cause this podcast drops there. - Yes, we did. We have two days we're going out in Nevada, which I always thought Lake Tahoe was in Utah. So I thought it was in California. - It kind of is. - It goes into California. - Okay, it kind of is. But it's in, I think South Lake Tahoe, where we are is gonna be California. - I thought we're going to Reno. - We're flying in Reno, but then we're driving. - It's an hour. - East. - Yeah. - Comment where Lake Tahoe is. - We're gonna be there. - Steph Curry, Steph Curry. - Who else is playing? - Curry. - Del Curry, Jason Kelsey, Larry Fitzgerald, Baker Mayfield. - I'm trying to remember that one. - Miles Teller. - Miles Teller, the guy that dropped the soup, the chili. Oh, Brian Bumgardner. - Yeah. The guy that had the burger palace. Bobby Flay. - Bobby Flay. - All those guys are gonna be there. So we're gonna try to get some cool interviews out to the audience, to our fans. - And then following that, we're gonna be around celebrities, talent, athletes, everything at Fanatics Fest. So a loaded two weeks for us. We're gonna have a lot of content with a list celebrities. And we also put the cherry on top. Did we tell them who we interviewed and have coming out? - I don't think we did. We can reveal it 'cause it's gotta come out soon. - Yeah, we have some videos with Will Ferrell, AKA Lonnie the Hawk Hawkins. - Oh my goodness. - Coming out. - Like literally our best friend now. - Yeah, he loves us. - He loves us. - He's just coming back up to us. If you like, he turned from the character, but I won't say that. - He's right. - No, he doesn't turn from the character. - He's always picking me up a piggyback ride. - He was giving me a piggyback ride. Play the clip. - Play the clip? We'll preview it. - We'll preview the clip. - All right, onto your first topic unless you have any more updates. - No, other than that. - Oh my God, we're going to the moon. - What? - What? - Make shift.
We're going to the moon. Yeah, you're moving in a positive direction. I feel like we're really, we're, we're, uh, pioneers. We're pie, yeah, we're pioneers. They're the next gen. Yeah, next gen. You guys are capturing an audience that I don't feel like we hit. Yes, I agree. Like the weird meme audience. Yeah. What? People who want like switch streams. Like the 18 year olds that don't really watch us. Yeah. They still watch us though. They do. They still watch us. Everywhere. That's all the credit you've got. It just like us better. Oh, okay. Moving on. First topic alert. I didn't want to talk about the World Cup. Why not? But we'll get into that. Africa. Okay. I wanted to talk about, now we'll talk about the World Cup, huh? Do whatever you want. Or Norway. I have another topic on me too. Oh boy. Do you want to talk about the same one? Yeah. Let's go for it. Norway may be the best country to live in in the world. Why is that Brian? Okay. I have a lot of facts about Norway. The people love the country. Tell me them. Norway judges earn less than bus drivers. And it works. How does that make any sense? So like government officials, judges, they make less or the same money as like everyday job. So like teachers, bus drivers. So they're equal. So they're not power hungry. Exactly. Exactly. That's what kind of drives. They're for the people. They're fair. Yeah. USA is not great in that aspect. Prisons in Norway have a kitchen, garden, and Wi-Fi. I mean, that sounds insane, but like what's the benefit of that? The rate to go back to prison in Norway is only 20%. Guess what it is in the USA. That's got to be like 80%. 76% of the time they go back to prison after leaving. They relapse into crime. It makes sense. It just shows that maybe you should not reward prisoners. No, but let them treat them like people. Treat them like a human rather than like an animal. Yeah, but does it encourage people to go to prison? I know. I also think that there's an extent of this. Like if you're doing really bad crimes, do not give them a kitchen. Completely fair. Completely fair. Yeah. What are they called? Taxivators. Sure. Whatever. But apparently it works. In Norway, it works. Okay. Education is free for everyone. University tuition is free, even for international students. Which is kind of crazy that I can go to Norway and get a free education. Potentially. I might send my kids to Norway to get college degree. I'm sure it's pretty smart over there, right? Why not? The government pays for knowledge. That's like what they say. That's their saying. Yeah, to get them more intelligent. They feed the brain. They feed the brain. With free education. They have something called the Janet Law. I have no idea. So I think that this is an unwritten law, but it means don't stand out. Don't stand out. What does that mean? So Norway's unwritten cultural law is that you are no better than anyone else. So why would you stand out? I love that. So it's like why are you dressing all crazy things? Why are you doing crazy things with your face and stuff? America is the opposite. Is the opposite. Everyone's trying to stand out. There's kind of like America better for that. Yeah. There's pros and cons to it. It's cooler. I guess everyone starts looking the same in Norway. Is that what you're going for? Probably. Yeah. Like there's no, you know, diversity. But that means that there's less judgment. Okay. Completely. Another thing is oil exists in many countries, but Norway created a $1.7 trillion oil revenue fund. And guess what? Every citizen is a co-owner. So as oil goes up, do they make more money? I don't understand it. I guess so. I don't know how many. I think there's around 5 million people in Norway. I don't know how much this breaks down to for each family, so I think they get a little piece. Someone explain that for us. Yes. Someone explain that. We need someone to explain that one. And then they have a poll where it says 70% of Norwegians trust their government. Which I feel like is pretty high. I feel like we're more towards 50/50 if that is probably 25/75. Oh, jeez. I don't think many people trust the government. Even if they're on the side of the person who's in office. Yeah. To be fair, it's a lot easier to have the trust of your people if there's only 5 million of them compared to 350 million. That's completely fair. And when they're consuming so much Pepsi Max, they trust everyone. Yeah. They might be drugging the Pepsi Max. Based on our other video that we did where they consume more than the entire globe or something like that. We also talked about Pepsi Max. We didn't know what it was. Do you want to know what it is? Pepsi Max. What? Higher caffeine. What is it? No, it's not. Higher caffeine. It's zero calorie, sugar-free cola. Totally. So it's sugar-free. So it's zero. It's our Coke Zero Diet Coke, too. In one. Oh, because diet calories. Diet Coke's caffeine-free. Diet Coke has caffeine in it. What? Yeah. Coke Zero does, too. It's the Aspartane. It has zero calories, zero sugar, it has 69 milligrams per 12 ounce can of caffeine. All right. It does have Aspartane in it. Yeah. Aspartane. Aspartane. I have no idea what that is. I just know it's a difference maker. To get on that, what's Aspartane? Now, you don't know that. You don't know that artificial sweetener. Yeah. Look at him. Because I'm big on the diet, so does. Yeah. He does drink a lot of diet, so does. Coke Zero. Come over to our. Got to keep it. Come to the good side. Now the Pepsi guy. You're Pepsi guy? You're the Pepsi guy. You're our way people. Ryan Gosling. Is he? We're similar. It's tough. I'm just slightly better looking. My hair's getting long. Look at this. I saw that you had a little different thing going on now. Well, this is still what? This is my hair, right? This is hot hair. Whoa. This is hot hair. But it's gonna get. It's gonna get there. I got to get a haircut tomorrow. I got to get on my hair regimen. Let's show it to the crab. I don't. Oh, me? No. You don't get haircuts. What are you going to get, right? I don't know. He's going to figure it out. He's going to trust when I used to go to the barber. I'm going to get a little taper fade. I would trust. Get it. Get a get a get a mid taper. Fine. I know. I want to grow this out a little. Yeah, but mid's not hot. It's not that. What are you going to say, Zach? I just want to share. You don't shy mid on this conversation. When I used to get haircuts, I let the artist perform the art. 15 years ago. Oh, no. I would be like, hey, listen. This is the one thing I want. Zach, you went to supercuts. No. That was before. I've been to a good barber. Did you have a woman barber? Yeah. I altered. I went back before. You don't have a ball of it. I don't know ball. When was your last haircut? Where did you go? Good clips. Stand on the conversation. Good clips. I didn't have much hair to play with at that time. You didn't go to great clips? No. It's great clips. It's not the worst clips. The low average clips. It's called great clips. I used to tell the barber. Listen, this is the one thing I want. I go to the rest. You figure it out. How much is there to figure out? Trust the artist. Well, there was. Back when I had hair. There was a moment in time where I had hair. And I got a good haircut at senior prom. I'm telling you. I brought you there. Yes. We went together. But I told Andrew that barber. I said to him, hey, I trust you. How did prom come up, figure it out. I trust your art. All right. That's their profession. It is. That was your best haircut I've ever seen you get. Yeah. Great. It might be the only haircut I've ever seen you get. But we're whack with it. I'm going to grow it out. Do it. I think if I get a transplant, I have to grow out the sides. Yeah. And then I'm going to look crazy for like a little bit. We'll wear a hat. I can do that. Say inside. I can do that for sure. Lay low. Lay low for a while. That's time I got a haircut. Is what? 2018? Probably. Is 2018 happening all over again? I hope it is. There are 11 parallels between 2018 and 2026. Oh, tell me them. This is via clutch points. Tell me them. First one the world cup is on. That makes sense. That happens every four years. That was eight years ago. And Messi's kind of running through it. He has kind of run through it. There's a new Avengers movie coming out. Oh, was that the last one that came out? Last one that came out was Infinity War. Now you have Doomsday coming out in 2026. Eight-year gap there. A new Spider-Man is coming out. There's been like a new Spider-Man every year almost. That's fair. But at least you got a Spider-Man movie. So into the Spider-Verse was the last one or the one in 2018. And then you have brand new day coming out in July. I am excited for that one. Drake dropped an album. Yeah. Drake doesn't do that that often. So you had Scorpion back in 2018. And you had Iceman and two other albums come out. What were the other two called? Habibi. Habibi and made of honor. Habibi, I said. Habibi? Habibi. What do those mean? Well, Habibi is like a nickname for a woman in a Middle Eastern country. Yeah. Habibi. Or maybe it's a guy. Maybe it's not about his mom. No, made of honor, the cover is his mom. And it's like a Twitter said. Atlanta, BB, club music is what Twitter was saying. What did it drop? Because that's what you think about your mother. You know what? Habibi means? Habibi or Habibi? Habibi. Habibi. It means, uh, baby. Kind of. Sugar mama. It means my love. Oh, my love. Habibi. Habibi. That works. Okay. So yeah, it's Scorpion and now you have Iceman. LeBron James hits free agency. Yeah. I hope he goes to the nets. There's a lot of sports parallels here. It's fun. He's not going to the net. I don't even think they're in contention to be honest with you. Where's he going? Uh, I think that he'll probably end up going to the Warriors. Warriors are calves. That's like, right? Yeah. Warriors are calves. It's probably those two. He doesn't, he said he hates Cleveland. You watch the golf video. He hates Cleveland? He got a lot of backlash for this. I didn't see this. What happened? Yeah. I think it was with Bob. He was like, dude, I hate not. They were talking about the city and like cities. They've been new. And everyone was like, yeah, Cleveland sucks. And he was like, yeah, I hate it. Kind of does suck. He makes sense for him to stay. Stay in California because he has a lot of business ventures and houses and property and stuff. So I would, I'm going to, if I had to bet, I would say he's on Golden State. In 2018, the Patriots lost the Super Bowl. In 2026, they also lost the Super Bowl. That is pretty great. This is starting to get a little weird. Okay, there's like five more. Rockstar dropped a game changer. So they dropped Red Dead 2 in 2018. And this year, supposedly, GTA 6 is going to come out in November. I think they will drop it this year. But that's crazy. That's like the last game they really came out with. Was it? I think so. I don't really know. At least I've significant. Yeah, maybe. Odell Beckham, Jr., OBJ, is a New York giant.
- Wow, that's nuts. - Right, now it's getting weird. - History repeats itself. - Kawai Leonard has been traded to the Raptors. - Wow, that is crazy honestly. - Conor McGregor is fighting. - Yeah, yeah. I love that all these guys are coming back. - Who's he supposed to fight? - Max Holloway. - Max Holloway. - Max Holloway, he's going to be a good one. He's fighting this in two days, when this drops. - In two days? - This era. - Oh my goodness. - We're going to get home from the flight and I'm going to go straight to either where everybody's watching it or my house to watch. - We'll be in the city for it. - I will be watching. - And the last one is the Golden Knights lost in the finals. - Yeah, that's pretty nuts. - That's 11 things. I feel like we're back in 2018. We got to bring back the fashion, the style. - I hope in two years it doesn't turn into 2020. - I would agree. - That would suck. - I would really suck. - But if we start going reverse in time, I would like that. - Okay, back to what? - Back to like 20. - I feel like our college years were like good years. - Yeah, I think so too. - I think in 2018, 2017, just keep repeating it. - I think all the teens were relatively good. - Yeah. - Those are pretty good years. - I feel like we're on the come up though. Like I was like a-- - I think we've hit rock bottom with COVID and right after that with like all politics stuff, I think we're coming back up. - Right? - I feel like the cup's bringing energy back. The next one, the finals. - Yeah. - The next one, the finals. - That is big though. - It is big. - I feel like people are happier. - I feel like people are traveling and-- - All we need is McGregor to be back on top. - That would be crazy. - There's no way he's gonna win. - All right. - Did you see his video? - Yeah, it's a little weird. - Did you see Sean O'Malley's video? - No. - No. - He made fun of him. - It's funny. - All right. - Back to 2018. - Back to 2018. - I'm okay with it again. - But it's starting to lose hair and it's ballspots starting to appear. So maybe 2017. - Yeah. - 2016. - I had Tommy in college and was walking behind me because it's so funny, Zach's got that little ballspot. It was like that big. Now it's-- - Show them the, can you see it? Oh, you kinda can't, oh, you can see it. You also have an indent on the back of your head. - I know. - I don't know what it's from. - A little calic. - Is that a calic? - I think that's where my hair's supposed to grow from. - That one little thing. - Yeah. - Don't you have a calic? - Yeah, but I don't think it's an indent in my head. - It's an indent? - Oh, it is an indent. - Oh, I could feel it. - I know. It looks like you got like stabbed with a pencil or something. - Oh, my goodness. - That's why I was at it. I was genuinely asked. - It's not the little dot, but that's like just, that's all my concentrated hair. - It just swirls out. - Yeah. - Well, it doesn't swirl out anymore, but it will eventually. It's okay. - It's fine. - All right, you wanna talk about the World Cup, bringing it back? - No, I'd love to. - These are five world records already broken at the 2026 World Cup. - It's been entertaining, let's hear 'em. - Okay, first one. This is the most African teams ever in the knockout stage. - How many? - I don't know. - Oh, it's just the most. - But I know Ghana is in it. Ghana is in it. - I was. - The Senegal made the knockout stage, I think. - Senegal's in Africa, yeah. - I've recosed made it, I think. - Yes, cooked the ivory. - I can't think of any others. - Three of 'em is a lot. I feel like for Africa. - Yeah, there might be a couple more. I'm sorry if I'm missing some obvious ones. - It's okay. - I know Cape Verde. Cape Verde is. - Not in. - off the coast of Africa. - Is it in Africa though? - I don't know. - It might be. They gave Argentina a run. Another one. Messi became the all-time World Cup goal scorer. This keeps bouncing back and forth, but once Mbope took it, he took it back. - Yes, it is Messi's right now. It's Mbope's for the taking. I think it is going to be Mbope's record for probably the next 30 years, at least. - Mbope's the Jason Tatum of soccer. - Mbope is better than Jason Tatum. - He's 19 years old. He'll never age. - Mbope is the greatest player in the world. Is Jason Tatum the greatest player in the world? - No, but I'm talking in terms of age, like he doesn't age. Jason Tatum's still 19. - It's like growing Holland too. - Exactly. - Actually, it's Luminium all. He's actually 18. - Don't know that. - What country was he on? - There was no idea. - Spain, I just dropped it. The USA scored four goals in a World Cup match for the first time in history, which is insane. 'Cause the US is not known for their soccer. - Do you know which game it was against Ghana? - No. - It was against Paraguay. - I don't think we played Ghana. - Paraguay? - Yes, Paraguay. - Yes, I remember that one. - But Paraguay, that's okay. Paraguay didn't lose until the group stages after America beat them. - Yeah, we were the only one to beat them. - Do you know the capital of Paraguay? - No, do you know? Anthony sings the song and knows every single World Cup match. - You know the song? - I know every country. (sings in foreign language) - You know every country's capital? - It's a song, yeah. He knows it. - It's ASUSIO. - Here, sing it. Sing it. (sings in foreign language) - That's it, I think. - Is that off South America? - That's every country. - I thought it was cold. - No, no, no. - It's just South America. - No, it's just South America. That's pretty good. - That is really good. - I want you to learn that and come back next week. - We'll try. - What's that on your list of tasks? - Saving. - Cabo Verde became the smallest nation ever to reach the World Cup match. - Cape Verde? - It's Cabo Verde. - It's Cabo. Cabo Verde. - Oh, I didn't know that. - But I think Americans call it Cape Verde. - Okay. - Cabo Verde became the smallest nation ever to reach the World Cup knockout stage, which is awesome for them. - Let's look up Cabo Verde's population. What do you think it is? - Probably like 8,000. - 8,000. - I'm kidding, I'm kidding. It's probably like 8 million. - I think it's less than that. - It's 530,000. - Yeah, that's closer to 8,000. - Cabo Verde, shout out to them. And then the last one, Ronaldo became the first player to score in six separate World Cups, which is crazy that Messi didn't, but I think Messi's first appearance was very short. - Yeah, I don't really know the facts behind that. - I saw like the whole thing of him coming on the field for the first time and Maradona was in the crowd like cheer him on. They were all like very excited. They're like, "This guy's the next guy." - What was that? - "This guy's the next guy." - The next guy, the generation. - No, no, no. I don't know what to say. - All right. - To lead the generation. - Maybe we're in a weird stuff that else. - No, you made it weird. - I mean, you were the one who brought up shagging in the first place. - He came up and in. - What? - This is bad. - Put flaws on it. - Finish your sentence. - He came into the game towards the end of one of the matches and he came in and like made a slide tackle, made a bad pass and then that was it. I think that's, that was Messi's first World Cup. - All right. - He came in and out. - Okay, I said, we'll cut that one out. - No, leave it in, we're leaving it in. We were leaving that in. - All right, go. - I just went. - That was it? - Yeah. - That was the five seconds. - Okay. - Jeez, is it hot in here? It's getting hot. - Sometimes you stress yourself out. - I don't think. - Something cool happened for America's 250. - A lot of cool things happened. - If you could bury five items to represent America in 2026, what would they be? - What do you mean? - So America buried a time capsule for its 250th year with more than 200 items chosen to represent life in America in 2026. I wanna know what you would bury. - So this is for people in the future to look back on America today. - We're gonna open it up in 2276. - Well, I think the first thing that I would bury, just based off of the videos of the European fans coming here and loving it, ranch dressing. - Ranch dressing is going in the time. - I just feel like they love ranch dressing. All the people from England are bringing back bottles of ranch dressing. I really don't hate it. - Yeah, that's a great one. I feel like a hot dog would make sense, but I don't think that that would-- - So I have a suggestion, can I put it in there? - Joey Chestnut's championship belt. - Yeah, that's a good one. - 'Cause he's dominated for like 20 years in the hot dog eating contest. - We could throw that in there. - That is America to a take. - Yeah, we could throw that in there. - Should we go back and forth? Should that be mine? Should we build two? - Sure, yeah. - Okay, so that's the first one on mine. - Sure. - Sure, sure. I'm gonna go with, I'll go with, you gotta think of American things. Come on, I'm thinking of American things, a waffle house hat. - A waffle house hat? - Or some type of souvenir from waffle house. - This is a little crazy, but I feel like it's very American. I'm just basing this off of the videos of the international fans coming here and what they're saying that they love. - I was thinking something from McDonald's, but that's already international, right? - That's extremely international. - Yeah. - Waffle house is nowhere besides the USA. And apparently grind stressing to. - I was thinking of Twinkie. - A Twinkie's good. - Twinkie's good. - Do they sell, do they sell Twinkies in other places? - It probably do, but it's kind of American, right? - It is, I mean, it's super American. So I'll go Twinkie. You'll go a waffle from waffle house. Is that where you wanna go? Or the hat? - Whatever I can put in there. - Okay, that works. - I think I'm gonna, could I just put like a thing of fireworks in there? - Yeah, absolutely. - I'll put a thing of fireworks in there. - Okay, which kind? Make the noise that it makes. - That one? - Yeah, I'm gonna put the, I don't know, names of fireworks. - That's fine, that's gonna be creative. - You know what I would put in there? The Hindenburg? - Trolla Lairo Trolla La. - Is that a good name for a fireworks? - It's a good name, yeah, I don't know. - I put that little thing that you have, the shark. - Why? - Because it represents the Italian brain rock. - It's Italian. - Yeah, but it's American. - It's Italian. - It's an American meme. - That's a horrible one. - Okay, I hate that one. - I'm not bad, sorry. - I hate that one. - All right, well, I hate your fireworks. - Seemed lazy? - What do you, a communist? - No, you hate fireworks? - It just seemed lazy. - You said Trolla Lairo, what do you think of America when you look at that? - I think memes, it represents the generation of the internet. - Horrible. - Okay, you got two more. - You had time to prep this. - Yeah, I didn't really think about it too much, but. - You could go pop culture, movies, music. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm gonna put a, no, I was gonna say bald eagle, but that'd be animal cruelty. - Yeah, you're not allowed to do that.
- Oh God. - What about like? - A Geek Bar. - A Geek Bar. (laughing) - Not a Geek Bar. (laughing) - It's pretty accurate though. - It's accurate. Why don't you go technology? - Why don't you go technology? - Okay, I'll put an iPhone. - The most worldwide thing ever. - Yeah. - The guy that invented Apple wasn't even American. - Steve Jobs is not American. - Pretty sure he's not American. - Do you want to check that one? - I'm pretty sure he is. I think he's like one of the most American Americans. - Steve Jobs is American. He was born in San Francisco. - What about his parents? (laughing) - Oh, I know mine. - What's yours? - They're from Syria. - Yep, knew it. - Oh. - Told you. - Told you. - All right. - I'm gonna put a can of Bud Light. - Okay. - Is Bud Light the most American beer? Miller Light? - Bud Wiser. - Bud Wiser. - Bud Wiser. Bud Wiser makes sense. I'm gonna put a can of Bud Wiser in there. - Very good. - That's for me, I think. - Okay, my fifth one, I would put like, a vinyl of Harry Styles or something. - Oh god. - Harry Styles. - We could put Kanye West. - I know, I'll put a vinyl of Leonard Skinnerd. - Yeah. - That's way more American. - To represent 2026. - To represent America, yes. - Yeah, but this is like capturing the time of 2026. - Who said that? - I said it at the beginning of the video. - You said America. - No, I said if you could fuck. - Fact check. - I said if you could marry five items to represent America in 2026, what would they be? - Leonard Skinnerd always represents Americans. - Harry Styles. - Harry Styles. - I didn't know who else to marry. - Harry Styles. - Taylor Swift. - You hate Taylor Swift. - Yeah, but it represents the time. - So you do hate Taylor Swift. You just said, yeah, I got him. - Do you want to know what they buried? - I'll put a shotgun in there. - That's a good one. - That's a good one. - That's a good one. - I got a shotgun. - Five biggest things that they put in there was an iPhone 17 Pro Max. - So you're just copying them. - A piece of the right fire, which is a fabric from the Wright Brothers 1903 Airplay. - How does it have represent 2026 at all? - They put in pieces of America's national history. So the Arkansas Diamond White Sand from White Sand's National Park and the North Atlantic Wright Whale Bone. - I hate this. - Who put that in there? - Whale Bone. - It's horrible. They put a collection of sports memorabilia but everyday objects, like a baseball, a golf ball, ticket stubs, et cetera. - Yeah, okay. - And then they put documents stored inside human DNA. - What the hell? - So they put historic documents encoded using synthetic DNA technology, including the declaration of independence and the star-spangled banner. - They really thought about this. - I mean, that one's crazy. - Or mine again. - And you could just code something into DNA? - Yeah, that's a little nuts. - I forgot what yours was. - Well, I put a shotgun in there. - Yes, you did. - I put any type of souvenir from Waffle House. - Leonard Skinnered vinyl. - No, I didn't put that one in. That was good. - A bottle of ranch dressing. - You did. - Fireworks. - And one more that I forgot about. - But it's okay. - It's on the screen, so we'll come back to it. - Maybe duct tape. - duct tape. - duct tape. - I really represent this time here. - It's a good one. - I was trying to represent America more than a time period, I think. Do you wanna talk about, do you wanna keep talking about America? - Yeah. - The average American has been to five of these places. Let's see how you do. - Let's do it. - Have you gone to Bucky's? - I don't know what that is. - What? - You know what that is? - I don't know what Bucky says. - Are you kidding me? - What is that? - Is that a fast food restaurant? - Sometimes I think you're born in Communist China. - What were you about to say? - What are you, what? - A communist. - What do you think I'm gonna say? - Something else. - What was I gonna say? We'll bleep it out. What are you? (laughing) - Keep it in, it's funny. - Bucky's is the biggest gas station, and it's like an amusement park over the gas station. - I don't know what that, maybe I've been to one. - So no. - No. - I've been to a- - I haven't been to one. - I've been to a gas station, I think in California. And they had like- - Bucky's are not in California's area. - I've been to a Bucky's. - Congratulations. - In Georgia. - They had a giant, this gas station, had a giant, it had the floor from the first NBA finals in it. - Not Bucky's. - Laker Celtics, it had the floor, the actual boards. - All right. - It's an unbelievable gas station. The urinals had games. It was sick. - That's like Zeppelin Hall. - Yeah, they have the soccer goal. - It's awesome. - I'm gonna restart this just for short form. - Okay. - Have you gone to a Bass Pro shop? - I've been to Cabela's, but not a Bass Pro shop. - Doesn't count. - Doesn't count, that's not it. - Cabela's, I spent seven hours in there. - Yeah, I know, I love that place. I have been to Bass Pro shop, not the Bucky's. - They have an aquarium. - Have you ate at a waffle house? - I have. - I have as well. - Where'd you eat? - It was my profile picture. - Where'd you go? - Two years. - Which one? - What state? - Florida. - Oh, I went to one in Alabama. - Well, that must have been good. - It doesn't get more American than that. - Where have you been to one? - Oh, yeah. I went to school in South Carolina. - Oh. - Have you went to a drive-in movie theater? - No. - I have. - Where? Upstate, New York. - I haven't been to a drive-in movie theater, but the Asbury Hotel used to do movies on top of it. - I've been there too. - And technically a drive-in movie theater. - Man, it's a good one. - No, it's cool up there. - I saw it just cool up there. - It was cool up there, I think. - But that doesn't count. That's not an American thing. Driving movie theater, sitting in the back of your trunk, putting a layin' down some blankets. - What? - It's like, I'm gonna do that on my Nissan X amount. - Yeah. - It's impossible. - Why not? - That's Japanese car. - Have you been to a Walmart? - I've been to a Walmart, yes. That's number one for Zach. - Okay. - I'm at three. - Not two, two, waffle house. - Yes, waffle house Walmart. I'm at three. - Actually? - Yes, I have, because I went with my grandpa. - I love it. - It's such a grandpa place. - My grandpa love CrackerBow. - I have a CrackerBow. - Oh wait, I might be thinking of Long John Silvers. - That's so different. - What could be more different? - What are that? - Long John Silvers is like a seafood fast food restaurant. CrackerBow is like Southern. - Yeah, like, they have a gift shop in the front. - Middle of the country. - I don't know, so I can't count it. - Okay. - So I did go there, guess when I ate there. - When you were six. - I ate there, that was my Thanksgiving dinner one night. - Really? - I was on the road with the Ruckus football team and on Thanksgiving. And we all went to CrackerBow to go. - Shouts America. - Yeah, horrible. That's four. Have you ate at a hooters? - Yes, I've had hooters. - I did too. I went for the first time with you like six months ago. - What? - After golf. - I don't know what you're talking about. - When we got, I've never got one. - You know, I went as like a teenager. - Did I hit? - Think. - Remember when we got the free credits? $1,000? - I don't think about that. - And we gambled on our phones and I would never go as an adult. - Why would you go as a child? - What would you go? - I got brought by my family. - What did you know of your family? - They brought me when I was like, like 10 years old. We went to hooters. - Maybe you don't share that with the world. - I remember going. We went after Hyron Glenn. - Yes, exactly. - I went like $800, so that's fun. - So that's a, I lost 1,000. - So that's a yes. Have you been to Dollywood? - No, but my brother's been. 'Cause that's in Nashville or outside of Nashville. I have not been to that. Have you been to a Texas Roadhouse? - Is that like six flags, but Dolly Parton? - It's in way, like, six flags here, Dollywood, I think it's like here. - But there's roller coasters. - There is, but like, it's not like crazy. - Yeah. - Have you been to a Texas Roadhouse? - Yes, of course. - I have, too. Have you actually? - I have, yeah. - What's on the ground? - On the ground? - Yeah. - Peanut? - Yeah, peanut shells. - Nice. - We had to leave one one time that we went 'cause one of my baseball friends was allergic to peanuts. - They have some of the greatest bread. - Yeah. - Have you been to a spirit Halloween? - Of course. - Oh yeah, 100%. - I need more costumes. - This one you don't have to go to, but it's more of a thing that you do. Have you lit fireworks on the 4th of July yourself? - I have. - I have as well. - I've lit a firework, it must've been like one time. - I've definitely done an LBI. - You know who else lit a firework? - Oh, Jason Pierre Paul. - I was just about to say that. That's weird. - Good joke. - Blue sandal. - It's like you both are giants fans. And we know that he blew his hand off. - Him and Plexko Berris. - Yeah, the giants don't have a great track record with a self-play. - I feel like they're doing better. - Way to drinks it. - This often is gonna happen. - Oh god, that's not gonna escalate downhill. - You said the giants are doing better. I think the USA is doing worse than Japan. - What? - Yeah, no we're not. - I'm saying it. - Disagree. - Here are five things that Japan does better than the USA. - Nothing. - That's your opinion. - Go on. - Japan Airlines shows passengers where children are seated. - What's the point of that? - So there's a baby icon that appears on a seat map. So if you're booking your flight, you're able to see where the kids on the flight are sitting. So you don't get your seat kicked. If you want to sleep, you don't have to sit there. - That's also a negative though. Why don't you like it? - No, maybe don't show grown men. - Why? - Catch her. - A guy like you would make the seat. - Did you mind out of the guy? - All right, let's restart that. - Yeah. - So why is that a good thing? - You could choose what to sit. If you want rest, if you don't want your seat kicked, you could actually choose your spot on the plane according to that. - My last flight, my seat was getting demolished by a kid kicking the back of it. - A baby icon appears on the seat map for children between eight days and two years old. - All right, that's interesting. - The next thing Japan does better is their schools have students clean the classrooms. - That kind of makes sense. - So they don't have janitors in Japan. - They don't have any janitors. So they get, they hand them a mop. - Students clean their own classrooms, hallways, and even bathrooms instead of janitors doing everything. - That seems a little crazy. I feel like-- - They might have like some janitors there. - We need some janitors there. - It's meant to teach responsibility, respect, and taking care of shared spaces. - Well, that was very similar to when Japan was in the World Cup. They cleaned up their seating area after the game. - Oh, really? - Did you see that? - America is like, you know. - We just peanuts, beers, everything on the floor. - Not great. - And Japan, they literally brought trash bags out and we're cleaning up everyone else's trash. - See, it's consistent. - Great people over there. - They probably learned that in school. - They probably did. - They have the, Japan has the best toilet seats in the world. - Are they heated? - They have heated seats. - Yes. - Built in bidets. They self-made. - You love that. - I don't hate a bidet. - I know, you love it. - It keeps you clean. - You like the pressure. - No, it's not. (laughing)
(both laughing) heated seats, built in the days, they self-clean themselves and they have automatic lids and flushing. - Doesn't all toilets self-clean themselves or no? - Well, they go down, but I think like it dispenses like soap and stuff to actually clean up. - That is pretty smart. They have the best toilets in the world. - You want them a day so bad. - No, I don't. They have no trash cans in public streets. - That doesn't make any sense. - But the streets stay clean. - They have robot cleaners? - No, public trash cans are surprisingly rare, but people are expected to carry their trash home instead. - It does seem like it's a very clean country. - You think people would litter? - You would think that. - But I think because there's no trash cans, people aren't inclined to bring their stuff home. - I don't know if that makes sense in my head? - It's working. - It's working. - It's working. - It's kind of the opposite of Disneyland where there's a trash can every 25 feet, which is a good Disney fact. - But it's also clean, so both work. - And the last reason why Japan is better than the US egg, is their vending machine sell almost everything? - Oh, like what? - Fresh meals, umbrellas, flowers, batteries, ice cream, ramen, and more. - The days? - Don't sell the days out of the vending machines. - And I was very disappointed to hear that. - I know you were, it's very. - There are millions of vending machines across the country. It's kind of like Disney World with the trash cans. You could find the vending machine at any point. - You're right. I really do want to go to Japan just to see what the craziest thing I could find in a vending machine is. - I'm not going to claim that makes Japan better. - Japan is good. - 'Cause some of those are a little back and forth, but it works for them. - Also according to John Taffer, they have the best food in the world. - That is correct. - Which again. - I know how he said that. - Very opinion based, but he said it, so it must be true. - All right Brian, this is what, what are you going to say? - I wasn't going to say anything. - He was about to say something. - No, I wasn't. - I want to make sure you're included. (laughing) - Do you believe that? - I don't know. - Yeah, I agree with that. - Oh, that's funny. - Because he actually does like the pressure. - No, no, that's not true. - High pressure, but days and assertions. (laughing) - The higher pressure cleans better. - No. - I would have known. - I don't know. - I didn't know. - I've never used a super high pressure, but day. - I've never used A, but day. - You gotta try it. - My grandma has a but day. - Yeah, I've never used it. - That's a visual I did not eat. (laughing) - All right. - You're weird. - What the heck? - You're telling me a grandma, I don't know. - Yes, she has one in her house. - You don't have to imagine. (laughing) - I'm not imagining anything. (laughing) - Looking flights to Japan. (laughing) - Oh my God. - Searching up high pressure, but days. - Ugh. - I told you, get your mind out of the gutter. - Your mind is foreign. Your mind's in the sewer. - Minds in the but day. - My mom just texted me, don't go out driving today. There are flash floods. - Yeah. - There was some pretty bad floods earlier. - I don't think it's raining that bad anymore. - Okay, I have one more topic. Last topic alert. - Last topic alert, the final one. - This is what the inside of the most expensive private home in the world looks like. - Who lives there? - Mukesh Ambani. - Who is that? - Guess how much the home cost? - Home must cost $1 billion. - $4.6 billion. - Oh my goodness. - You wanna know what's inside? - Yes. - Okay, we're gonna go one by one here. - Where'd you find this out? - On Instagram. Guess how many stories the building has? - And this is their home. - This is their home. - It has to be like a 30 story building. 27 stories. - Yeah, okay, pretty good guess. - That's ridiculous. - So it's a high rise. - His house is in India and yes, it is a sky rise. It's looks nuts. - That's wild. - Okay, how much full-time staff do you think he has just for his house? - Staff, I mean, 34 is two per floor. Let's go 60 people. - 600 full-time staff. - Yes. - He has 600 people working in his house. - Do it, what's this person do? - I chefs cleaning up. I have no idea. - No, no, what's this guy do? - Oh, I don't know. - How do he become rich? - Let's look that up. - How big is his garage? How many cars can it fit? - How many does it fit or how many does he have? - How many does it fit? And I think it's also how much does he have? - Let's go 400 cars. - 168 car garage. - Ever shot. - Me and a high rise. It has terrace gardens, which if you see the image, it looks awesome. It has swimming pools, now it's one. - Multiple. - Multiple swimming pools. It has a ballroom for events. So I think a lot of the staff works in the ballroom as well. - I'm sure these people must live there too, right? - They probably don't leave. - Probably. - He has a gym, a spa and wellness center. This is starting to sound like a resort. - It's a $4.6 billion home. Like, is that owner actually using the gym? - Probably not. - Probably a rich snob. - He's the chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries. India's largest private sector corporation. He is Asia's richest person. - Asia's richest person. - He does a lot of other stuff. - Yeah, I'm sure. - I'm not actually a digital surgeon. - I just called him a rich snob. - Energy, retail, sports and entertainment. - I think he's a very nice guy. - Yeah, I think it's great. - He loves, I would love to invite him. - He owns the Mumbai cricket team. - Wow. - You hate him. - He looks like, he looks like a good guy. (laughing) - Whatever he knows next lying is when he stumbles. - No, I just didn't, I didn't know. He has a 50 seat movie theater. Get, hear this one, ready? - For who? - 50 people. - I don't know. - Guess what else he has? - He has a snow room. - So it snows? - I don't know. - In the room? - I don't know what it is. - Or does he go there when it doesn't snow? - It's, it looks like it's made of ice. - Oh man. - I don't know what the reason for that is. He has a private temple in his house. - I mean, if he's religious, perfect. - He has nine high-speed elevators. Probably go to go to different places in his house. - In like the least amount of time. - Yeah, he has recreation facilities. - What, I say I like that. - That's it, that's it. - He has recreation facilities. - He has a luxurious drawing room, which I don't know what that means. And then he has in there. - He has three helipads. - Yeah. - How wide is this? Like I imagine like a high-rise like just vertically. - You're gonna see the image and you're gonna be kind of shocked. - I mean, what do you do with that much money? You buy that house? No one's gonna buy that. - Buy that house? - This is what it looks like. - Oh. Looks pretty cool. - Honestly, I thought it was gonna be bigger. If I had $4.6 billion, I don't think I'm buying that. - I know. Like every golf membership ever. - All right, maybe that. Or my own golf course. Yeah, I would do that. - Honestly, at that point, just pay to be honest. - I would buy my own golf resort. - Oh. - That's what I would do. And I would live in the clubhouse. - Now, but anyone in. - Now we're talking. - I would have the clubhouse and then the public clubhouse. - You know what's so sad? - What's sad? - That the podcast is over? - The podcast is over, yes. - And we're out of the member shout outs. - We're out of the member shout outs. - Here we go, the podcast is over.
