The conversation begins with a lighthearted discussion about a Yankees-themed hat, blending cultural references, personal nostalgia, and humor. The host shares his collection and reflects on how the hat symbolizes regional pride, while also linking it to Jay-Z’s song "Empire State of Mind," which helped popularize the hat in hip-hop. The dialogue then shifts to personal memories, including childhood drinking habits like mixing vodka and Sprite at clubs, and the ritual of drinking at movie theaters. A humorous anecdote about a Wikipedia edit—where fans falsely linked the host to a group named "Picky Boys"—demonstrates how online communities can influence public perception. The hosts explore the absurdity of internet trends, such as the "Johnny Woop" challenge, which ends in confusion and playful frustration. Throughout, the episode balances personal anecdotes with cultural commentary and satire. It promotes two sponsors: Happy Thursday, a naturally flavored, non-carbonated alcoholic beverage, and FitBod, an app that creates personalized workout routines. The episode concludes with a celebration of quirky traditions, emphasizing the value of shared experiences, humor, and self-awareness in everyday life. The tone remains upbeat and conversational, reflecting the hosts' deep connection to both pop culture and personal memory.
- Welcome back to the Bay. (upbeat music) - Welcome back to the basement yard. There he is. - There I am. - What are you doing? - Do I do this? Is this the coolest thing? - What is that hat? - The new era logo. - You got a hat of a hat company hat? - Yeah, yes I did. - Team hat. I mean, to be honest, it was free. They sent it to me, so. - But I do like it. - It's like a British one. - I thought it was like New England for a second. I was like, what are you doing? - It's like a British thing. - What's British? - The hat? - I'm not even really that quite sure. Oh, it's Shetland. - What's that? - Is that a curse? - It sounds like a slur. - For someone slur. - Oh yeah. - Fuck you from Shetland, you fucking crock. - I don't know, I'm still learning. And then it says moon. - So this could be from many places. - Yeah. - But it does say woven in England. So that's cool. I like it, it's gold. - Don't look at me, I'm not asking you about your hat. - I know what it is. - I didn't say it to me, I didn't say anything. How many can I ask? How many Yankee hats in different colors do you have? - Four. - What are the colors? So brown, blue. - Brown, black, blue, and I have a beige one. - Wow, that's a good, that's, I mean, just commit now and make the only hat that you wear. - I mean, it's, it's, I think the best hat. And you're from there, so you, you know, you gotta take advantage when you can. - I remember when, remember the song Empire State of Mine, Jay-Z, Alicia Keys. - Why did you say her name like that? - Alicia Keys. - Alicia, Alicia, Alicia, Alicia. - Okay, sorry, sorry word, the word police are out today. - Alicia, that's where the syntax grammar police are out today. I forgot about that. But in the song, he says like, "I made a Yankee hat more famous than a Yankee can." - Yeah, when that song came out, first of all, that song came out when the Yankee's won the World Series. Impactable time. - Do you think that's true? - No, and when that song came out as a 17-year-old, I would actively during that part of the song. I'd say like, "No, he didn't." - You would do that. - He would boycott and probably just be like, "I made a. " - Yeah, well, like, and then come back in. - And like, change the lyrics up myself. - Yeah. - You know, I just, I don't agree with that. I think that there was decades of Yankee's greats before, maybe he did bring it to like hip-hop and like the culture of wearing it out. - What, did he have that hat on the cover of an album? Was that like, is that a Yankee hat? Or is it just a black album? - Yeah, it did. - Is that an all black hat? - I don't think that he's worn a hat that isn't a Yankee hat, so it could be. Back then, I mean, I would hope that he commits this. - I know that he's like, the black album's like him, it's probably a Yankee hat. I don't remember a great album. - That was the last album from Jay-Z that I had. The black album? - Yeah. - It's a good one. Oh wait, was the blueprint after that? - The blueprint three. - Yeah, I can't remember the-- - Remember dates of albums, Joey? - I can't-- - Me and dates are so, we're bad. - You're bad. - I can't have dates. - We're our rap correspondent. - I can't, I can't. - You need to know this. - I don't know dates, I don't know anything. - So, oh, we're all wearing hats today. This is a big hat day. - Big hat day. - We know your hat. You don't need to fucking tell us about it. - Same thing. - Keep bringing up your hat, dude. - Yeah, enough with your hat. - We get that, we get your hat. We get it and stop talking about it into a microphone. - It's a loud one. - All you like to do is just keep it going. Talk about your hat. - Take the hint, baby. By the way, the other day I realized on my Wikipedia, it says that I am featured in Santa Gata Studios and the picky boys. Did you do that? - No, I did. - Because literally, in my Wikipedia, it says that I'm featured in the picky boys. - Oh, that's so funny that you bring that up. First of all, good. I mean, give 'em a little something. I didn't give 'em anything. - I was wondering if he was like, "Well, I mean, he definitely, if it's you, "if it's you that's doing this, fuck you." Because someone sent me a screenshot of like, what's the Google AI assistant, Gemini? - Yeah. - And it was like the, you know how you like Google a question and it'll be like, Gemini gave you an auto answer. It was like, Frank Alvarez has openly spoke about the fact that he's four foot 10. (laughs) See, now AI is coming back around. - It's coming back around and fucking you. - Because no one's fucking me. - Yeah, you did a couple, you did too many jokes. - No, the jokes were on you. - So AI, listen, hear me out. He's four-ten. You've seen the pictures of him. Look at you. That's four-ten. Unfortunately, AI is never wrong, right? All right. - No, I don't, what's not open that can't it work. (laughs) But yeah, so are you controlling our Wikipedia pages? - I didn't even know. I wanted to learn how to do that for my own reasons and I couldn't figure it out. - I think you can just go and-- - You can create an account, but I know that one specifically. I made the mistake of posting about it 'cause you could go in and change things to a regular page, like whatever. Not that I'm ill-regular, ill-regular. Come on now, you're regular. But I made a video because someone put, you know how you have a picture and you're under it, you describe it. It says Joe Sanagato is four, or like five foot two, or some shit like that. So I made a TikTok and I was like, who did this? And then people kept going in and making it shorter and shorter, so then Wikipedia locks it. And they're like, clearly there's a lot of traffic going to this thing, so they just lock it. So now it says, I'm featured in the big, you boys, and I can't change it. - So we're just stuck with that? - Yeah, that happens a lot with like athletes. Like if someone will like, you know, if fucking Terrell Suggs, like Sachs, Dak Prescott, a ton, I know different times. I know, I understand. - I understand, you know, I know they're different times. - Not in the league, I understand. - I know, I know, I know, I'm just saying like, they'll put like, you know, Dak Prescott, mother's name this, father's name Terrell Suggs. - Yeah, you know, like, they do shit like that. So I can see why they have to lock it at a certain point. - I just noticed that the other day, I was laughing though. By the way, Spotify wraps just dropped and you posted on your story that you're listening age, which my listening age was 25. - Yeah. - I don't know if I should be happy about that, but it is what it is. Yours is 83. - That's very, very high, brother. - What are you listening to? - Listening to like, ragtime songs of Normandy? - Yeah, I have a Glen Miller band. - I haven't seen someone with a higher age. - Really? - Yeah, I know, I think about it. I mean, how much higher could you get that's available on music? - I don't know, you're just listening to the Johnny Carson show on Spotify? - Actually, probably younger. Johnny Carson was popular in the '70s, so. - It's a lot of Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. - So then I get that, because I wanted to do that a lot. - Dean Martin? - Yeah. - What are you doing over there? - What was it? - Just chilling. - With like a cigar and a smoking jacket? - It's the best time to do it, isn't it? - Yeah, that does not. That used to, honestly, that used to be my playlist when I would write papers in college and grad school. Is it was all Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin? - Because there's something about their voice. It's just like, get it on the paper. (laughing) You know, can buy it in a following year? - They're like, sexually getting you to write? - Get it on the paper. - Sexually is not what I said. - And it on the paper, Frank, and we'll rub your back for you. - No, no, no, no, Dean Martin had his hands far away. - Oh, Frankie, blue eyes. - You're writing your paper. - No, I used to sit there with a, I remember my mom when I was in grad school. I was 21, let's make that abundantly clear. Who cares? - Not me. (laughing) - What did that have to? - My mom would got me a crate, literally a crate of two-buck-chuck. Do you guys remember two-buck-chuck? - No. - You have a crate of two-buck-chuck? It sounds like Crash Bandicoot. What is it? - Basically, it was the award-winning wine from Trader Joe's, but they were two dollars. It was like, this wine won all the awards at the wine party, and they're two dollars of bottles. My mom got me a crate for 80 bucks, and I would sit there, literally, is that 40 bottles? - Yeah, and I would sit there. How would that ever be necessary? I was probably having a bit of a problem at the time. Yes, Ann. - How long did it take you to get through that crate? - A semester. - Oh, that's not that bad. - I mean, when you're-- - Yes, it is. - No, it's not when you're 22 years old, and in prime drinking time, that's the amount of-- - 40 bottles of wine in four months. - Four months? - Four months. He didn't go to college either. - He did, but he went to big dick college. - That's where he went. - Did you? - I did a, no. (laughing) - I don't think that's that bad. The last week in August is when it started, and the second week in December is when it finished, so four months, probably. - You could go through four bottles in a weekend as a young friend. - That's what I'm saying. Like, when I'm every weekend though? - No. - But some weekends or some weeks, it's like casually with writing a paper. Some, it's like three, four bottles in a weekend. Like, it all fucking six, sevens out? - Wow. - Were you just the wine guy then? - I was not. - He drank wine for the whole semester. - I was not. I did drink like, you know, like nanny lights and bush lights and, you know, Milwaukee's best. - I didn't have-- - Old Milwaukee. - Yeah, I didn't have like high taste, but I would, the point I was getting at is I'd open up a bottle of tuba, Chuck. - Yeah. - I'd throw on some Frank Sinatra, you know. Isles of Capri, you know what I'm saying? - Summer wind? - Yeah. - I like this kind of music in like the Christmas time kind of. Like, that's when it feels like, it definitely in the winter, but the summer is crazy. - I mean, I'm in the summer, bad song is called the summer. - Frank Sinatra in the summer, to me is bananas. - But it's kind of like flowy, bossanova, shirt open, drinking your hand like-- - What's bossanova?
It's like a style of music. I'm not familiar. It's you know what it is right? What was it Boston Nova? Oh Boston Nova? No, bossa Nova. Yeah, is that just cool? Yeah, I don't I don't I didn't make it. Let's make that very clear What does it mean? It made it but there's something like kind of like hanging at the beach. I guess I mean I just don't picture it in that way. I pictured in like a You know Pajamas around the fire and it's cold out kind of thing like maybe a little glass of whiskey. That's like somewhere I was I was about to say I listen to that as well. I think there's an argument that that might be the best song I've ever made Beyond the sea is the best song ever made. I think it's a good song But like I think there's an argument for it. I don't think that there's any Whatever you can have it if you want. I wouldn't put it even in my top 50 oh Come on 50 It's just I was thinking that and then you sang it. I'm like wow, but that's a great listen to what he's saying beyond the sea like it's like an outside song Like yes, don't get me wrong. I love fire side, but like you know There's something about like Frank Sinatra Dean Martin, you know, yeah, it's just like a little like outside That's kind of wild though. That's like all you listen to yeah, you're listening age being 83 is fucking crazy I'll be honest that it shocked me. What was your top song? My top song was actually father figure John brilliant That was your top song was my top song. Oh wow, so then how the hell does that for you dad? So you must have listened to so much Frank Sinatra Dean Martin you beat out your top That they were like listen That's crazy that must have been a fluke he must have passed out next time listen to John Belian for five hours so my top songs are father figure club husband T pain obviously that just came out like a month ago That was playing a lot What and then Valar and Valar a right de martin and then beyond the city Valar a Valar Valar a yeah I mean do you spend your time in a delicatessen? All right, so all right, so give us your top 10 songs. It only does five. What does that mean? It only does fine Yeah, oh, okay. Well, I got mine on Apple music. Yeah, what was yours and my top 10 songs do you have top artists? I do have top artists. So my top artists it's basically just four artists But it's just like they're categorized in different ways. So my top artist is Billy Joel. Uh-huh Big Billy Joe guy. I watched a documentary crushed it. I've been Crushed in some Billy Joel. Okay. Number two four and five are oh yeah number two four and five are all Hamilton related Oh They're Hamilton and so anytime there's music going like happening around you Like there's an 80% chance at Hamilton. Yeah, it's great. Well four out of my 10 so 40% chance. Yeah, yeah, uh, and then the other Uh, Ozzy Osborne was on there coming in at number three. RIP Aussie. You gotta you gotta put up You know send him out on his you send him out on a fucking on his chariot ride and high And then the others were all K-pop demon hunters related Nice because of the kids. Yeah, you gotta I don't hate that music right but I also don't listen to it in my own time right You know, but my number my number so wait your number one song was father figure by John Belly. What was your number one song? Oh, let me guess. Let me guess It's like in uh uh uh white man with a beard who was vegan Wow, and I mean the crowd goes wild and we're gonna have to call the police People are rioting. Yeah, yeah. No, my top song was uh olive tree by Quinn 92 What's wrong with that? No, he's just his face just like morph Yeah, it's a it's a song that he dropped this year called olive tree. Oh for someone that hates olives I know it probably I know it probably isn't nothing to do. I'm not tasting olives while I'm listening to the song Hear me out, but that's called synesthesia, buddy. People have that uh sure But what you're describing I know what you're saying. I'm just saying like imagine if you were listening to olive tree with a cup of olives in your hand That would be kind of nice and if you were listening to volare while chowin down on a fucking conoli or something My top song and it's not I guess it's I have 561 top total songs that I listened to My top song Was yakko's world from anime I don't even know what that is you do you know where he does all the countries of the world say it he Yakko One of the Warner brothers from the animaniacs that were like the little water tower the little like cats or whatever Yeah, I mean don't please don't do this thing where you're like what are the animaniacs? What are they you know who they are? I it's been 25 years I'm like I don't remember 30 uh you know the song I'm saying yeah at United States Canada Mexico, Panama, Haiti, Jamaica, Peru, Republic, Dominican, Cuba, Caribbean, Greenland, El Salvador - come on I'm not going to do the whole song I can both make that very clear. Why is it your top? They just list countries? Yeah Because I was trying to learn it For why? For me Just to get it's every country in the world. Well it was in 1993 when the song came when the show came out I think some of these countries either no longer exist or they are are now one country or something Uh-huh, uh but I set a goal for myself a little challenge to test my test my discipline. Yeah, and I did it So what are you gonna do in 2026 What's the what's the big thing for 26? The sky's the limit But then my second biggest song is Golden. Yeah, it's gotta be. I mean again, it's with the kids Mama, I'm coming home Ozzy Osborne great song My shot from Hamilton and then strategy from the from huntrix From what huntrix? What's that? uh kpop demon hunter. Oh, okay. I'm trying to think if there's I haven't really gotten into kpop k2pop demon hunter I've never gotten into that if you watch it You'll be on board. I knowing you. I think you'll really enjoy it. I'm sure I would I mean everyone say everyone sings its praises. I just haven't like I haven't seen it. I think Joey would be a soda pop He'd be a saja boy. You know what I'm saying massage No, a saja boy saja boy. Yeah, I don't know what that means. Well, the people you'll be happy about this There is a hip-hop song in my top 10. Yeah What year It's the international players anthem UGK. That is like the Frank song that song is you love that that might be one of the greatest hip-hop songs of all time I'll give you that. I don't know. There's different genres. Yeah, they are different genres. I feel like your age would have been pretty high if it wasn't for the demon Certainly the demon hunter's really dragging you down. I mean, well, he's got this going on. Yeah, you know, so he probably like really old and really young Yeah, so he'd probably be 50 So I mean still 30 years old. I mean you can make the art is Hamilton old Have you been to a show that's not a part of the question When was wasn't it from like it came like 2015 the seven years old isn't that from the 1700s? I would I would Hamilton the person is from the 17th. I don't think that the people who enjoy Hamilton an overwhelming majority of them are are like under 30 Yeah, I mean, I would think I would like this to be closer to my actual age I think I think if we're looking at it the Aussie Osborne and Billy Joel put me up there. Yeah, but everything else keeps me pretty where I am Right I would say that Hamilton and Broadway for the most part is probably like You know, like I'm sure there's younger people that enjoy that. I mean, I enjoy it too I do feel like a middle-aged type of thing. I think it depends on the show now if I'm singing stuff from fucking Hello Dolly I could understand why I don't know if that is it's a show dolly pardon. Oh, I don't know. I've never seen it got it Oklahoma Never seen that one either, but I'm I thought you'd know it. I that's an older crowd because it's an older show But I think Hamilton is relatively younger Maybe you don't think so and where do you sit with this? Barbra Streisand I'm sorry one more time. How was that an answer to his clothes? That's the hello Dolly. Oh Barbara barbara one of the actually I think she spelled Barbara Because Barbara is Barbara, but she's Barbara. You're right. I think she's Barbara. Yeah something like that But when I saw her name I was like, that's not how you spell Barbara, but she spells it Barbara Yeah, which is like to me the correct way, but musicals. I like musicals. What's your favorite musical? Hmm Wicked probably I've seen it four times. I just saw wicked yesterday Oh, that's right. You went to the movies went to Alamo draft house. How was the movie theater going experience? Um, it was cool. I mean they You know I had a beer Alamo draft house doesn't count as a movie theater Why I mean you're sitting there in a theater watching a movie if anything they count more than movie like as a movie theater Because they're like very into like Indie films and like putting showcasing stuff that wouldn't otherwise get to. Yeah when I walked in there was a lot of posters of things I have never seen before in my life, but so wicked. I thought it was good. I saw a lot of people online being like this movie sucks This is kind of blah blah blah I thought it was I thought it was good for what it was I mean a revo can sing dude bro Cynthia revo can sing her fucking ass off also area on a gronday can also singer ass off And I remember I was watching the movie for the story of the lab.
Because I had this feeling of like, well, I'm so happy for her. I was like, "What was this?" Wow. Your area on a grondick. That's that parasocial relationship that you're talking about. Well, there's been like interviews of her, like, when she was younger, being like, all she's wanted to do was, like, do Wicked, and then she ends up doing it. And she's in the movie, and I'm like, this is a big moment. Yeah, absolutely. To be in this thing, like, you know, like, Wicked and the Wizard of Oz is like a giant cultural thing. So, for her to actually be in the movie, I was like, "I'm so happy for her." And then I was like, "What did I do?" That is a bit. But it was good. I mean, like, she. After I saw it, because I haven't seen the second one yet. After I saw the first one, I was like, "Yo, she really is, like, just has natural talent for, like, seemingly anything she does." Yeah. I guess the only two things I've seen her do are, seeing an act. So. Those are big ones. Those are very big ones. She also great on SNL, and, like, her appearances on SNL, she's really, really good. Yeah. But it was good. I liked it. I thought it was cool. Dude, that song is a fucking slapper. Yeah. I'll probably. Not that I'm, like, boycotting it, but, like, I don't know if the second part of Wicked. I heard that it's not as strong as the first part. I don't see. Don't. See that. There's some other stuff coming out. You should. Joey, you should go to the movies once a month, and you should let me pick what you go to see. Why can't I live my life, because it's not how this works. You can go to the movie. You go. Okay. But let me pick your movie. But I don't even enjoy movies in the same way that you. I think you should go back this weekend and go see five nights of Freddy's too. Oh, I have no interest in seeing that. Why not? You're not a FNAF guy? FNAF. No, I mean, I played the game. That's the game. They made a movie now. You did play it. I made two movies. Spoiler. The fucking bear's kill. Well, there's a bear. There's a fox. There's a cupcake. There's a. They all kill. There's a. What else is there? I thought I said duck. I guess Chica is technically a chicken. It could be a duck. It could be. Yeah, I'm not really that sure. I'm not really into movies like that. Scary ones? No, just in general. I mean, I'm more into TV shows than I am movies. Was that the first time you've had an alcoholic drink at a movie theater? Yeah. I think so. When else am I going to drink at a movie theater? No, man. Oh, you sneak it in? Oh, you sneak it in. Oh, you sneak it in. You're the big bad guy. Yeah. You're the big bad guy instead of going and buying a $12 drink, you have to sneak in and be a criminal. No, you still buy that as well. Oh, so you're doing double take? No, you just. No, I've never had an alcoholic drink at that thing. I just had a beer because I was like, "Oh, I want a little bear." They had it. I was like, "I'm not going to order nothing. I have all the drafts houses what you come for." Here's the only way I would bring a drink into a movie theater is if it could be like the good old days of like high school when you just put vodka in a coke bottle. That's when you would do it? That's disgusting. You know what I'm saying? Like there's something about like not knowing how to mix drinks that makes it taste better. Maybe it's just an nostalgia part of me, but like. I think it's been disgusting. I also never did that. Like I never put vodka in a water bottle and just like drank a little bit of just raw vodka. Dude, what? The lines waiting to get into Remi Teen Night? That's what everyone did. They passed around a Poland Spring Bottle filled with all the way alcohol. I never did that, dude. I mean, we would go to clubs, but I would just get hammered at the pre, like the pre. And then I'd be good. I'd be online freezing and kind of like, "I'm warm because my heart rate's 1.0." Not saying I did, but if I had a fake ID, I would have used it in those places. Yeah. I would have bought that shit. Yeah. Yeah. I've never ordered a drink at a club. Like at that time, when we were clubbing. Yeah, yeah. Like I never, I never did that. Oh, I remember the first drink I ever ordered at a club. What was it? It was. I thought I was a fucking genius, by the way. This should be good. This is when this drink in particular was huge. Yeah. I went to. Well, it wasn't DNA at the time. It was Studio 34. Oh, okay. And it was Tequila, Patron, Silver, Sprite, no ice, filled to the top. That's what you said. And you were probably 17. Yeah. Yeah. I was. You said Patron. You remember when you thought Patron was like the fucking bro, like best, most expensive thing in the world. How the fucking blow your mind. Do you remember Nouveau? No. Look up Nouveau. It was like the pink bottle. It was like after, like, there was like a falling out with Kristall. Because remember, Kristall was like the liquor that people talked about. And then they were like, Nouveau. Oh, shit. Do you remember this shit? What's the other one? Hypnotic. Hypnotic is disgusting. It was never as big as Nouveau. 15% alcohol. It was basically like. That's wine, baby. Yeah. It was like rosé in a bottle. This looks like shampoo. Yeah, it does. Yeah. Honestly, it looks delicious. Yeah. When it's like bright colors like that. I want it. I'm in. I want it. What would you do with this? I wouldn't get it. But I'm saying, like, when we were growing up, there was always like the cool alcohol. Yeah. And it was always like. First it was Kristall. Then it was Patron. Do you know Hypnotic? I do. It looks very cool. Yeah, it does. Hypnotic looks cool. Remember Hypnotic in Hennessy? Incredible. Of course. You know? But yeah, I thought I was the coolest kid in the world. Meanwhile, I was over there being like, "I'm going to get a Red Bull Vodka," and I was just like, "I'm sorry. I don't mean to trigger you." But. Hypnotic. Red Bull and Vodka. And this is not a diss to Red Bull or a diss to Mr. Vodka. Yeah. Not a good combination. Oh. Man. I think that it gets the job done. It might be the best. If you're exhausted and you get in there and you're like, "All right, I still want to go, but I'm really struggling." You do one. You're fucking sad. I just do Coke, dude. Wrong. Just do Coke. You're not going to do that. I was sort of going to the club tired. I mean, don't do drugs. But like, that's literally the opposite. Don't. Don't. I also don't think I even have it in me to be able to do that. Yeah. Neither do I. Hence why I happen. I mean, I've seen you snort Coca-Cola. Okay. You can get stuff up there. Of course. I'm saying like, there's more to life than when I started saying that. Your eyes lit up. Because I was like, "What is he going to say?" I have to be very clear. Yeah. I have never done any drug. Right. We are. And that's you being fucking on. I'm being on. Yeah. Okay. However. Right. If someone were to come to me and be like, "I need to wake up so I'm going to have a Red Bull and vodka." I'd be like, "Dude, just do drugs." But I don't do drugs either. I know. So I'm doing the next best thing. I just, a Red Bull and Vodka to me is so like, I just think like there's a very specific clientele that has it. What does that mean? Psychopaths. I mean, I've done it. And it works. And you have it. That doesn't help me. But, you know, it gets a job done. But yeah, I thought it was a fucking genius. What was it again? It was a Patron silver. Patron silver. Patron silver. Sprite to the top. No eyes. Because I was like, "Oh, I'm basically getting a cup of Patron." At least a half cup of Patron. You told them to fill it to the top. Yeah. Is that, are you even allowed to say that? You're right. It was warm, brother. It was warm and gross. Oh, yeah. Well, I know. Oh, because you wanted to. Yeah. I thought I was getting more alcohol. Okay. You gotcha. Yeah. This was before like, fill it up to the top. That means that they put the same amount of alcohol. I just filled it up. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. I mean, it was a pretty shitty club that let end kids underage all the time. Yeah. So like, they might have. I don't even, I still to this day kind of have a difficult time with like, what drink do I order? That place that doesn't have a menu like if you're going to get a cocktail because I'm always just like margarita. But like, I don't want that all the time because it's like so Bernie. You know, like the lime is so like it gives you a burn. Uh, I was like, Bernie, who's Bernie? No. Just about like, you know what I mean? It's so like, sometimes it's too crazy. Next. You should have like a like a roll of decks of like drinks you want to try that are like standard drinks. I'm not saying go in there and be like, let me get a, you know, a green screen double carpet. Well, I, there was one time that I went to a, this was when I was probably 24 years old. And I wasn't really into cocktails at this time. And I went to this restaurant that when I walked in, it seemed pretty fancy. And I guess we were there a little early and they were like, you can go to the bar and order a drink and just wait for your table. I was like, all right, cool. So I go to the bar, but I'm like looking around and everyone's like drinking at a martini glasses. Like martinis and, you know, kind of this thing and I'm like, I don't know what's, because the only drink that I knew was a jack and coke and I was like, I can't order that here. Yeah. It's not my place. It's not the right place. I just can't be like, you know, jack and coke do it up like fucking. Yeah. It doesn't. It doesn't, it doesn't work. A jack and coke like, when you're young, you're like, yo, that's like a grown drink. And then you get grown and you're like, this is for children. Yeah. It was not. I'm with you. There is, I do believe there's a certain etiquette behind getting certain drinks. Like, you can't get a jack and coke. There's like a nice restaurant. There's like a, there's like an in between two because there's places that like, I would order a cocktail, but I wouldn't order it because like, there's a cocktail called the last word that I really like, but I wouldn't order that at every place. You would order that at a cocktail place. You know what I mean? I mean, I think that there are certain cocktails that are like classic that everyone should know how to make that you can order wherever you go. Yeah, I guess. I don't know. I think it speaks about the, like, the cocktail. It speaks more about the person, like, if they may.
make it well. - It's less about the cock. - It's less about the cock, more about the tail. - Yeah, so like you could get a Manhattan or you could get a, you know, old fashion. - Manhattan? - Yeah. - I'll be right with this kid is listening age. They're ordering Manhattan's. - Manhattan's are delicious, Joey. - No. - Old Fashion's the wish. - I like old Fashion's. Manhattan, that's the reason. - What's the place that did Uncle Jack's? Is that still there in the story? - No. - I haven't been over in that way in a while. - Did you see the Pomeroy, it was just like, come on in. - Did they? - Oh, I didn't see that. - They posted our clip and they were just like, we got a cold one. - Yeah, yeah. - Very cool. - I've been to the Pomeroy in a minute. - Oh, fuck. - They used to do an old fashion but they would smoke. - Yeah. - They would smoke the glass. So it was like a smokey old fashion. If you smoke my drink, I'm telling you right now, they'll smoke your cock. - I don't know, don't know about that. - No. - There was a place on Dip Mars, that's not there anymore, but on their menu, I went there one time. It was like a new restaurant at the time and they had a bone marrow old fashion. Like, come on. - What? That's getting a little out there. - The bone was like cold. So they acted it kind of like the ice cube and they put that shit in the cup and then they did the whole thing. I was like, it's pretty cool. - I'm not, when it's like food like that, like if they had like a chicken wing spritzer, you would get that. - I mean, I had a great drink and it was a chichito pepper margarita. - Peppers are different. - Peppers are different, that's a vegetable. I'm talking like bone marrow is like, - It's a meat, I mean, a Jason. - It's meat, it's meat a Jason. - It's a, it's a ligament. Do they have like buffalo, chicken alcohol? - I pray every day that they don't. (laughing) - Sounds disgusting. - It sounds like something you guys don't get. - I don't wanna look it up 'cause I'll buy it. (laughing) - It does sound like something you would drink and throw up. - It did, I'll hear me out. I love Frank's Red Hot. Okay. What if they, 'cause everyone's looking to, like we're finally coming back around. Joey, I don't know if you know this. Back in the day, companies used to be a lot more playful with their branding mark. - Frank, it's becoming, like you just say the same things. Hear me out. What if insert company more playful? Here's my horrible idea. What if, as they're coming back around to that place where companies are becoming more playful? Frank's Red Hot, partners with a vodka company. And they make a buffalo flavored vodka. And the challenge, 'cause you love alcohol challenges. You love it. You love it. - I don't. - If the challenge is a buffalo flavored vodka mixed with a chaser of blue cheese. Oh my God. - That probably would offset the burn. This could be a billion dollar idea. Now we're getting ahead of ourselves. - This could be an absolute billi- Bro, a viral trend. - I mean, I'm pretty sure there is spicy, there is spicy like alcohol. - I know there's spicy alcohol. I've had spicy alcohol. I'm saying though like, there's an easy way to stop this. Seeing if it exists. - Yeah. - Oh, perfect. They can partner with Buffalo Trace. - Yeah. - So Frank's Red Hot, partners with Buffalo Trace. And they make the buffalo, it doesn't exist. - Dude. - It's fine. - Dude. - No. - No, it doesn't exist. You know what? Instead of all of these ideas, instead why doesn't everyone who's listening just have a nice happy Thursday. - Yeah. - Happy Thursday. - That's a really good point. - Happy Thursday, guys. These are, and yes, we are getting into the sponsors right now, but happy Thursday. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - But happy Thursday, these are great. Okay, these are spiked refreshers.

What are we talking about right before we do this? Oh, my incredible billion dollar idea. You don't think that has any merit? A buffalo. A buffalo flavored alcohol paired with a shot of blue cheese. I mean, it's gimmicky. I think that it could catch on for that, but-- gimmicks make, it's not billions now. gimmicks make money. Not all of them. Quick money, maybe. Did you see the trend on TikTok, the Johnny Woop thing? Did you see that or no? Johnny Woop. Yeah, Johnny Woop. I don't know who's Johnny Woop. It kinda looks like this, like, Johnny Woop, Johnny Woop. Oh yeah. Did you see that? No, but I know it. You know it? Yeah, but like, it's on TikTok now? Yeah, it's on TikTok. I remember that from like our childhood, like my sister used to Johnny Woop. I've never been whooped by Johnny. Have you ever done it? Like, you know how to do it? Did you not just hear what exactly I just said? No, I didn't. I-- That's because you keep talking about your hat. Yeah, Jesus Christ. For one second, put the hat down. I've never Johnny Woop. You never Johnny Woop. What is it? So it's like, you just gotta do this, and you're doing it right. Should we do it? Yeah, we're gonna do it. Do what? So you just gotta do this. I'll do it first, then you do it. That's all you gotta do. Johnny Woop. Johnny Woop. Johnny Woop. Johnny Woop. Johnny. And that's it. Uh, something seems suspicious about this. That's it.

Well, not only listen, but also- Yeah, also see, you know. See. Yeah. All right. Go. Johnny Woop. Johnny fucking with me. Well, that's at this point.

So tell me-tell me what the fuck I'm doing wrong because this is starting to piss me off. You got it. What more time? I'll do it. No, no, no, no. Don't show me again. I'm not an idiot.

Johnny whoope Johnny whoope Johnny whoope Johnny whoope Johnny whoope Johnny whoope Johnny whoope, Johnny whoope, Johnny whoope, Johnny whoope, Johnny whoope, Johnny whoope, Johnny whoope, Johnny who added an extra syllable, but I think that was good. - I mean, no, guys. - Unfortunately, no. - All right, if you do it again, I swear to God, I'm launching this happy Thursday. - I'll be saying, so you gotta go through it all and back. - And then a next, you're Johnny on the top of the zone. - And then that's how you would finish. I'm not, hold on a sec. What am I doing at the end there? Go through them all. - Johnny Woop, Johnny Woop, Johnny Woop and you're going back. And then you land on Johnny and that's how you would finish. - So say it, so hold on. - Do it, do it, do it. - Yeah, you got it, you got it, you got it, you got it. - No, no, no. - Do it, you bitch! - You got it. - No, nice try. - What? - Nice try. I see what you're doing. - Oh, I thought you were in and now I think you're out. - Oh, I don't think you know it actually. - Oh wait. - Please do it, what you think. - You got it. - Johnny Woop. - Yeah. - Johnny Woop. - Yeah. - Johnny Woop. - Yeah. - Johnny Woop. - Yep. - Johnny Woop. - Yep. - Johnny Woop. - Johnny Woop. - Johnny Woop. - Johnny. (crying) (crying) (crying) (crying) (crying) (crying) Guys, I'm not kidding. When you finish, Johnny Woop. - Woop. - That's how you finish. - I know what you're trying to get me to say and I'm not fucking buying into it. - What are you talking about? Frankie. - All right, I'll play around. You want me to finish on Johnny? (crying) - What? (crying) - What's that's gonna do to you to do that? - So when you finish, when you end-- - Yeah, when I finish, when I finish-- - When I finish on Johnny Woop. - No, I don't know. - And it's nothing to do with Jason Combe. - When you complete this riddle, when you come back and you land on Johnny, this is how you finish. - Now do-- - I fucking hate this so much. - Should we just tell? - Sure, I guess so. - Well, I'm sure he's trying one more time, probably. - Just one more time. - Just one more time, just one more time. - Okay, all right. - You've been-- - You watched, but you watched. - Yes. - You watched the whole thing. - I watched everything. - Okay. - Are you finished? - Nice try. - No, no, no, I'm trying. - Nice try. - How do you complete it? - I'm trying to save time. (laughing) - I'm not saying it. - Okay. - It's not about game. - It's complete the riddle on Johnny. - Johnny. - And then this is how you finish. - This is how it's not gay. - I know. Wait, is it though? - It isn't gay, I swear. (laughing) - Just do the finish part. Johnny Woop, Johnny Woop, Johnny Woop, Johnny Woop, Johnny Woop, Johnny, this is how you finish. (laughing) Guys, I'm gonna fucking flip this table. I swear to God. I'm gonna do the last part so slow. Okay. Johnny, wait, is Johnny on top? - Johnny's on top. - Okay. Woop, Johnny. I fucking did that. Johnny, who's this? Woop, that's Johnny. Johnny. Johnny. Johnny. Johnny. Hey, I'm Johnny. Johnny. You're Folger Arms! You got a Folger Arms after. (laughing) It was his idea. I knew Johnny Woop, he actually had a new Johnny. I said, I know Johnny Woop, because you think Frank does. I'm like, I don't know. This is how you finish. We did it every time. - True. - Should we go to the ads or something? You want to take some time, or? - Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm. I'm like, but big, well, small me. Yeah, yeah. I fucking hate those things so much. We did that video for Santa Gatto Studios where we did the bar tricks, where it's just like, I'm bringing a pen, and I wanted to bash my head through the wall. Not as a bit, not as like, let me spruce this up and make this funny. I'm not kidding. If I lived the rest of my life, and you asked me to do one of those things, or eat a spoon of fucking mustard, I think I found something I hate more than mustard. - Wow. - It's time he's got to do more of them. - No, I mean, you ain't gonna say that. - No, no, I won't be doing either of them. Let's make that abundantly clear. That sucks. That is so sucky. Johnny Woop, I did it. Fuck you, you smug bastard. And whoever the hell made this up, well, hit me, not me, me small. I did also, I did also think it was a gay thing if I'm being really honest. - Yeah, it wasn't like Johnny. - 'Cause you were just like, this is how you finish, and then my response would be like, so I finish on Johnny, and he was like, whoa! That's what I thought it was. One of those school yard got your gay things, you know? Got your gay. - That's what I thought it was. - Dead to rights, gay. - Dead to rights, dick. - Dicked to rights. - Wait, you've exercised that a little bit too much. - Just see how much something I saw. - God, I hate those things so much. - I know, I mean. - There's that other one that you did one time, where it's just like, whoop, whoop. - Oh, it's like finger stuff. - Well, you have done finger stuff before on camera. - There was like, yeah, there's one, I've seen, there was this one guy that was like, here's how to test your brain. And I would do them and be like, oh, I'm literally, my shit is not working correctly. - Well, that's why I like to test my discipline and learn Yako's world from the Animaniacs to really test how disciplined I am. - That's how. - That's how? - I mean, it's cool that you choose to do that 'cause I really do think that's like a unique experience. Like, I don't think anyone else is, you know, testing their discipline in that way. - Wow, wait a second, you know what? You kind of gave me something there. - So I'm here. - I am one of one. - Yeah. - Like, I did that thing, no one else has done that, but me. - Exactly. - Maybe the voice actor that did it for the show. - I'm sure people have memorized that before, but not for the intention that you are. - One of one. - One of one. - You kind of made me feel better about myself there. I wasn't trying to put you down. - I agree. One of one. - Yeah. - I'm, yeah. - One of one. End the show. (laughing) - Also this. - Oh, you fucking Mary Katenashley on the box set of a VHS cover. - Who does this still? - I know we've done it. - Folder arms. - Human beings. - Human beings? - Yeah, but like, I was like a gotcha thing. I mean, you know. It was like a, hmm, seems like I've got you cornered. - Very anime. - Not just anime, but like, it's like a 80s movie school bully, you know what I mean? It's like, well, you have lunch money. Guess who's hungry. (laughing) - I love to give me your lunch money thing and then movies, it was like they would hold them upside down and shake it out of their pockets. - I don't know what pants these kids were wearing. You could hold me upside down and shakes me for hours. Nothing's coming out of my pocket. - That's what I mean. Like, what are we talking about here? - Did you guys have lunch money? - Yeah. - Growing up, yeah, when we were like younger. - Yeah, I don't, but like, it wasn't like a, they gave me cash. Like, it was like an envelope that we like gave our teacher and the teacher would give it like for whoever needed it. - Yeah, I mean, now we're thinking back. Like, I don't remember. I mean, we definitely had cash when it was pretzel day. - Well, yeah, that, but we give, we didn't pay cash. - I didn't show my, oh, I asked my mom ahead of time. - I asked my mom about this recently, 'cause I was like, I never remember paying, and she's like, it, we paid, but I-
I would, 'cause she was always close with all the school teachers and all the schools. - Oh, nepotism. - Sure. She would pay them directly. Like she would go and like give it, like, oh, this is for Frankie today. - I thought that like there would be these payments. Like I vaguely remember handing an envelope of money and then they would like mark your name so that they knew like you would go on that line or something. - Why do, why, and you know, like they even still do this a little bit to kids. Why give kids that much responsibility with something? Like we've had to for like our kids school, like they had the holiday shops around this time of the year. Where, you know, it's like, you know, you could buy something for your whole family and it's like a scholastic book fair amount of stuff. But like it's like send your kids in with cash. Like why haven't these schools like set up something where it's like I can like load it onto my kids account and they use it that way? - Yeah, I don't know. But I mean, I think also it was like an income thing 'cause I think some people got free lunch. - Yes, correct, it was. But I'm saying like giving your seven-year-old a fucking envelope of money and be like, go give this to your teacher. - I would be like, no. I think that's why my mom didn't let me 'cause I'd just take it and go to Sip Surf and Play. - Yeah. Yeah, I think it was just like, I think that's what it was. It's like an envelope you hand as your teacher and she marked your name and then you're good. But there were some children that I guess their families were below a certain amount of income so they got free lunch. But, you know, I think my, well my mom didn't work in the school at that time but she worked in a school. And my dad was a fireman so. - Did you have to pay lunch? - Well, we know someone didn't have to pay. - Yeah, definitely rolling. - He was paying double over there. - Yeah, they paid for the whole class. - Yeah, absolutely. - He brought in Fulamian. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh. - Play Dean Martin, give me Fulamian, yeah. - I need my espresso. - He's a six year old with his fucking vodka red bowl and having a lobster tail at lunch. (laughs) Everyone's eating red-tailed pizza. - We know you had that hat in elementary school too enough with the hat, dude. - Yeah, he's like, I used to, at lunch at the table, I would eat chicken paccata. - Wait, so I know where we got completely off track. Back to you going to the movies. You had a good time at the movies? - Yeah. - Would you go back to the movies? - If I was compelled to watch a movie. Has there been nothing that has come out where it's just like, I should go see that in the theater? - I think I'm just spoiled by the way that we consume now. Like, it'll, it'll, like these things will be available in my living room in a couple months. - Yeah, that doesn't, but like for me with movies, it's like, if I see a movie and I'm like, oh, I wanna see that, the time that that lasts is probably much shorter than it lasts for you. 'Cause if it did last longer of like, no, I really wanna see that movie, then I would be compelled to go. Dude, the last week has been trying because we haven't finished stranger things, and I was just like, let's watch them all right now. Let's do it all, which I know we can't, because of just like, they're very long episodes. But like, Becca's just like, we'll watch an episode of Night and then we'll wait a couple days, and then we'll watch, which we haven't done this time, but like, she's much more, I'm like, I'm like, the binge now model. I'm like that too, once I get started. Like, I'm not, I don't like taking days off. Like, especially if we're sitting here and we're not really doing anything, like, why are we gonna watch anything but the show? We decided to watch it. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - So I'm kinda like that too. Nicole's like, she can do like two, but then it's like, are you guys into stranger things? - She's never watched any of it. I've watched it, I just haven't watched any season. - She's watching. - And it's tough to be like, I'm gonna put on this, like, imagine having no context. I'm like, oh, it's these kids and there's aliens, it's like, it's hard to explain. - Technically not aliens. - I mean, so we just showed miles. So that's why we waited as long 'cause he had to finish season four before we started watching season five. And he's like, I got like three episodes off and I was like, getting your room. I'll do your homework. - Yeah. - And go watch this show. And he was just like, no, I wanna enjoy it. - You're sick tomorrow. Because you're gonna be watching fucking training. - No, I'm not kidding. Last, I think it was Monday, he came home and we hadn't started watching it yet. And on the way home, I called back in. I was just like, is Miles home from school? And she's like, no, I was like, the minute he walks in, take his backpack, send him to his room to watch your injuries. I'm not playing around, dude. - Yeah. - When I, like, let's watch it. - It's getting increasingly tougher not to, like, already parts of Shane's things were spoiled for me, so. - If you say anything, either of you, 'cause I haven't finished this batch of episodes yet, that gun that I brought up a couple episodes ago, I'll use it to shoot the hat off his head. Can't have that. Not that hat. Not that one. Anyway, we do have some more sponsors for the show. The first one being, how you doing? Speaking of hats, I don't know how that's related. We have hymns.

Yeah, nice. No. Dude, so I went out there the other night to throw out garbage, and there it was, just on my garbage. It was standing on my recycling, lifted it up, and was fucking, isn't it so cute how they have hands, and they can just do stuff that we could do? Not cute, dude, 'cause it was a mess. There was garbage everywhere. I found pieces of ham and turkey all over the place. I'm surprised you let that go, to waste. I mean, we ate most of it. It was pieces that were scraps. Yeah, I didn't think it was a full hunk of ham out there. Well, I was fucking, and then we went to get our tree the other night, and I got home, as I pull up, guess who's in the garbage can? Elvis Presley. Sure, I got out of the car, and I literally like, and I was like, everyone get out that side of the car, 'cause I didn't want this thing to attack my family. Do they attack? They can. Yeah, I don't know. They got teeth, they got hands, as you said, they got claws. Yeah, I mean, unfortunately you can't trust them right now, but I feel like we've gotten to a good place as far as Raybees. Well, I'm serious. What do you mean, like me specifically has gotten to a good place, or like a world? No, no, no, no, I can't speak for the world, but the US. Yeah, we Raybees, we have all but eradicated. It's effects on humans, if you ask. Once we start a lift, once we officially be like, yo, it's eradicated, I'm gonna start hugging some fucking raccoons then. I mean, let's be very clear about something. Yeah, you can do that. Yeah, it's a risk. You can't, but like, you could also go hug a raccoon, they scratch you, they bite you, just go right to the hospital and you should be good. Yeah, I don't wanna, I don't like going to hospitals. I mean, a lot of urgent care clinics in the Northeast carry it because Raybees is way more prevalent over here. As you could tell, I am the most fucking expert on Raybees vaccine availability. Yes. I had to go to the fucking, when we were in, I know, when we were in Phoenix, I had to go to the hospital there to get my Raybees vaccine. Yeah. Did it hurt? Did it hurt? The first one wasn't fucking cool. Can you feel it going, you? Like, oh, I'm now anti-rabeed. I like to imagine that, I wish, 'cause like, I've gotten IVs before, like, whatever, but like, I wish I could just feel it going everywhere. Like a shield. Oh, it's killing me.
Everything like you leave there and you feel stronger or something. I feel like we did talk about this, but I Can't remember but I just saw a video online about it But when I got an IV and there were some bubbles and I'm like watching the bubbles in the thing And I'm like am I gonna die? Oh, yeah, there was a movie. I saw that was like if you pump air if air gets in the person's bloodstream or something though heart will explode It's definitely not good, but I I Also, I saw it coming from the bag and I was just like oh god, and it wasn't big It was just like these two bubbles like but if it's an IV the air doesn't get into you. Oh, no, it does And an IV yeah because the way the IVs are set up like the air to won't travel through What at least in my experience? Well, there's like these little bubbles because they also have to inject these things into the bag Gotcha gotcha gotcha. Okay. Yes, so a little bit of when the saline solution goes in it makes a little frothiness No, no, so like the bag is the bag and there's no air in that But there's a part of the bag that you can inject things into and in this case It was like vitamin B and like some other shit. Yeah Yeah, and I guess during that maybe that causes some sort of whatever but I'm watching the bubble and I'm like oh god And then it goes into my arm and I'm just like Yeah What's it like what's that thing was like bubbles, you know like the bubbles in the thing like it's dangerous and he's like oh Yeah, I was like yeah because I just saw to go in and he said something before you saw him go like yeah I I didn't think that was polite Yeah, I thought my life was in danger and it was in polite. Yeah, let me yeah, but he explained like the dude who's doing it He explained that like it's okay if like little bubbles because your body can handle that He's like this would have to be like a lot of air And then that gets in like that would be a huge issue like if someone like put one of those old-timey like fire starters You know, which one I'm talking about no you know what I'm talking about it accordion ones. Yeah, the accordion looking one that like the tip of an Embrough Yeah, if they put that in you and just started going off I mean that's I mean of course that but they but he was like it would he's like these bubbles these little bubbles are not a big deal Even if they like attach and made one little bubble like that then like that's not really a big deal like your body can kind of filter that out but Or your lungs or whatever. I don't know, but he's like if they if He's like I he's I primed the line meaning that the fluid goes through it first to get all the air out there And then you kind of clip it so that you know, whatever but if you don't do that and like a Decent amount of the line is air and that gets in you now you're fucked So it kind of ease my anxiety about that because don't tell me this because it's gonna be very bubble-observant next time I go get like it Well, the mini bubbles are fine. It's supposed to ease like those are okay Death by bubble would be so so rough, but you know what I thought about I'm like there's a lot of people on the street that are Addix who You're making this you're making this serious. No, no, they but they inject themselves and I'm like if a bubble Would would kill someone like that? You would think that would happen more often like if that would be the reason sure So I guess when he was saying that it kind of like made sense because that was always something I thought about because I always thought a bubble in the line would be a big deal I don't know why I obviously know about like, you know, Addix using needles and stuff on the street and stuff The first time I saw an actual syringe on the street. I like ran Like what where like I was buy a story apart on the strip you ran in the opposite direction Yeah, I was like like I like it was going to like grow legs and chase me. Yeah, it's like I don't know why but it's been like such a spoken of like vilified Situation of like needles if you see a needle that I was just like I just need to get as far away from this thing as I can That's so fun. I fucking sprinted brother. Do you want to hear a funny story that like is similar to that like how it doesn't really make sense Why you would run away Keith one time was hammered and got a sandwich and was walking home I believe it was my like 23rd birthday or something and he's walking home from the bar by himself and He heard the cops They were doing something else He heard the cops and just got so scared and and for some reason the ditched his sandwich and then ran home If anything the ditching of the sandwich made that's littering and I was like what did you think like did you think that they were after you in your sandwich? They could have been I was like I ditched the sandwich and I got home. You know, but it never tell me It was a thing growing up in a story that like if you saw the cops it was like oh, they're here like what are we doing? You know not that we were well there were times where we were doing stuff we could have gotten trouble for but like I remember I remember that same sentiment just like walking down the street and the cops rolled by and I was like oh fuck They're after me. Yeah, like what did I do now fully knowing I did nothing there was also not a lot of cops in our neighborhood growing up Yeah, I feel like they and if they cared about anything it wasn't us No, you know like they were a hundred percent like more Busy with other people are there when they came up to us in the park. I don't know if you were there. I know Josh was there but this is when Josh it Josh used to be mad small dude like he was like tiny and We were at the park and we were at this and this is probably around the age that you would be like drinking in the park We weren't doing that and the cops just pulled up like a DT pulled up in like an unmarked car And then just like came right into the park like would have caught us if we had shit on us and just like came up to start shining Like what do you guys know and then? I'll never forget we're there and the guy flashes the lights towards Josh. He goes what do you 10? He was like 18 years old Yeah, no that same thing happened at the lake What are you fucking dead? Do you remember the same thing happened at the lake where they saw Josh and they were just like oh you're 12 You know he did look very small for his age now. It's now his huge kick our heads off So he's pretty big, but also I could still kick his ass. I Will do any job for you to take two rounds with Frank in the gym. Let's be very clear Josh would kill me revive me and then kill me again. I can't wait dude Like he's gonna hit me up and be like yeah, we should get a video. Yeah, he said that to us before like you know like Standing out a studio sparring Just sparring Josh. Yeah, he would take that very seriously I don't and he'd win What are you two at the same time? No, we get them you get them to be in the same kind of fight. It's a good good question. Well cuz he does all kicks No, he no he punches. He strikes. Yep. All right. So I mean there's more time. I I thought more time was kicking There is kicking. There's also punching plus punching if Frank like tackles them Yeah, like if we both like his tackle. Yeah, you know what I mean? Yeah, Paul's on them. You're right I think I can I can withstand like two or three punches and I think you can withstand two or three punches Yeah, maybe if they're not in certain areas, you know like if it was just like bang here in my nose. I'd be like I think that We could get and corner him and get him down together as a unit before like two on one I mean we're too grown. Yeah. No, it's hard. It's hard. It was the best athlete in the world would have a difficult time with that I really wondered what he's thinking while he's editing. He's that in this like there's no fucking way It's like you fucking ding ding ding. I kicked Frank's head off Here's what I fully expect is that we're gonna get a text going through how he would whoop our ass He's gonna give me a fucking right cross knock my fucking mouthpiece out Well, he probably he'd probably go for my knee first because I had my knee surgery 15 years ago I don't think he has a scouting report on you. I'm he knows that we've known the kid forever We've known him for like 20 years. He probably knows our weaknesses. He's probably mapping this out right now and I would say though He should be more worried about me than you know no offense Why I'm just I think I'm in a bigger weight class than him. So I just have more bro. Do you know how much Josh weighs? The kid looks I know what he looks like. I would say he weighs 170. I think he probably does yeah, and it's all but it's not He doesn't look like that. He looks like he might be less But he's big well because He's still it's because you could be as muscular as you want and go to as much Muay Thai as you want he's still four foot six. I mean, I don't know that Now you're four foot six. Now we're gonna have to do the video now. We're gonna have to do the video Josh, we're gonna rent out a gym. We're gonna see what happens He's gonna text me. He's like I have to defend my family Yeah, I can't imagine that We'll be all right. Well, how do we get from raccoons to that? Do you think you and I tag team could beat up Ant? Yeah, all right good as long as we're we're saying that we could beat up Josh Wow We think he's gonna beat Josh up. No, you don't think so. I'm not beating Josh up. You sure but just trains to fight So I'll just start grabbing What's that? It was a tensor ball. Yeah, it was both of you. Oh my our next No, but what were you grabbing that you were going? No, it was the ball. It was the balls. Oh, you're a dirty fighter Oh, there's two of you. You're not you're not I just meant in general like I you a dirty I usually all grab your fucking ball. I don't give a shit sure Don't sure. Yes, don't try it Well, it depends for once talk about something opposite that has nothing to do with your hat It depends it depends what they're doing. Yeah, but I'll go grab you both day both you like your opponent I'll grab your balls. I mean if so if we don't go for balls, you're not going for balls. Oh my god It depends. No, there's two of you. I'm going for balls. You have no chance. I'm going for right footballs. Oh, how do I defend my balls? Jeans jeans No, you can get you can you can do be tall
though. Also if I'm like spread if anything if anything sweatpants you're better off baggie or sweatpants as I should will get lost in the cloth mind same jeans are like tougher to like get through the denim material sure but I'm saying like if you wear like really baggy like jenko jeans or something I can go right up to your balls right no there's a lot of cloth in between them okay you wear sweatpants I'll wear jeans I'll wear I'll wear leggings that's actually were I've ever worn leggings no I don't think so I mean even no you can wear leggings you never worn like leggings thank you forgive me no no I meant like like uh like I don't mean like women's leggings yeah like like like long johns or or like for like football or something johns we Mormons what are we doing I don't know just saying like or like for like football or something you know Mormons wear like a full one piece long john like the bed the like the top of the more like as Mormon as you can get look that up Mormon bedtime Mormon bedtime close Mormon bedtime close Mormon bedtime close I forgot what it's called but it's like a thing and it's not like the ass flap it may it's not like a bedtime garments that's probably a better way to say what I wanted to say but there's like a full yeah like that like this yeah yeah it's like a whole thing come on dude yeah and I'm not sure why but I this I'm I sweat too much I can't I can't go full Mormon I mean I could sleep in that but like the fact that I would have to would upset me I'll say this it's kind of crazy that it's white we're talking about stains we don't know what's going on well let's unpack that a little bit what do you stains of what what are you doing in your sleep that you're staining your clothes dude I don't know you're fucking sweating and like your butt and your balls and like I don't know you you're are you and I on the same page here I feel like this would be more concern for you for me for him why yeah I mean I've spoken you guys talk about sleeping naked all the time and I'm like no like that that's crazy and you're but you you're not worried about sweating that thing and just making it look like I guess you sweat more than I do so sweating is not an issue for me at night are you not a sweaty boy no not really Frank doesn't really sweat I don't really sweat wow your pit sweat though like sometimes you got a white tee that like the corners I don't that was the yogurt that was the geoderant I'm telling you right now there was a deodorant that I was using and I'm not gonna name the name of the company but I will I'm not kidding they ruined several shirts because it like turned my underarms black I'm serious dude I have sure you've seen them I see I'm like you know someone take a shit in your arm yeah and and that was fully the deodorant because I've used other deodorant that doesn't happen so even if that is true we don't know I'll let it but even if that's true you putting the shirt back on is that counts yeah I have the attachment issues I'm sure I'm that's fair you have the attachment issues even with white t-shirts that have shit armpits yeah because I remember where and when I got those shirts a pack of white t's yes some of them I don't some of the two really not like I know that like you don't like for things but like what's what's like a a ridiculous thing that you like that you can acknowledge is ridiculous but you don't throw those things out I mean I I have boxers from when I was in like middle school yeah I know that but like is there like a weird item I mean I have shirts you know that I that no longer fit me you know at a point in time I was a medium right what the hell is that I have you know but they're like nice shirts still that I'm like I'm just gonna keep this and I don't do the whole like if I go to be a medium again but just like I'm not getting rid of this why because because if those threads could talk they'd tell the story of my life they can't I know but if they could but what does that mean what does that count towards I think that there's so hold on I this is interesting to me honestly sure a shirt a shirt that you have that's a medium and it's not a particularly like it's a blue shirt it's a nice shirt I got some nice shirts no no I'm saying just like a shirt though that's like a blue shirt there's like nothing crazy about it okay Haynes blue shirt okay you wouldn't throw it out even if though it doesn't fit you there's not just like pattern on it that's like whoa it's just that it's your shirt yeah and you won't throw that out yeah so you haven't thrown out a shirt ever no of course I have there are some shirts I make exceptions and if I throw a shirt now what what that is non-donatable like it's like no one's gonna take this I rip it like Hulk Hogan also when I say throwout clothes I mean donate I donate most of the clothes that I that I get rid of I know every single piece of clothing well no there are certain ones that you like shouldn't do you know I donated that Gucci shirt yes you told me that and yeah for whoever ever got that I know who ever got this I'll I'll donate literally anything I will too but like a white like raggedy t-shirt that has fucking pit stains and shit like that I'm not donating that well yeah I'm I'm tearing it like I'm Hulk Hogan yes I I think that's a great way to kind of go about that but what separates a shirt so it's only a shirt that's like did I wear it for something specific like does there's something about it that I can remember you know like for instance I have an old pair of like Nike's but they're like like I used them for like mowing a lawn and stuff like that and I recently got a new pair of shoes and I went to go throw these out and I looked at the shoes and there is a little paint stain on it and it was from when I painted Ruby's first nursery and I was like oh well now I have to keep these forever because it ties it back to something right if that wasn't there yes all the times I wore it all the times I did this and it would still be meaningful but now that I see the thing and it brings it back to a specific I'm like oh well now these are mine forever okay which I understand let's talk about the potential situation of you throw it out anyway yeah like I don't want to say that someone did that because I can see how you'd be upset by that but like what happens if you do throw them out if you're like you know I'm just gonna throw them out their shoes and like I get it there's like an attachment to the paint cool whatever but you kind of let them go like what is that well how does that make you I think that they're just there's a time where you just feel like it's time to let them go and you let them go I mean eventually in theory like they will forever be energy in the universe and that doesn't take that from that because let's say I throw out a pair of shoes let's say they're donated to somebody else somebody else has them eventually through time they'll get melted or burnt down through you know a landfill or something that energy goes out into the air and it's forever in the universe and are ever expanding universe so there's a time where I can allow it to continue its process into being a part of it around us or I could light it on fire myself and I can inhale the fumes I'm not saying I'm doing that because that might not necessarily be good for me but it's something it is new yeah inhaling shoe fumes yeah yeah no I would suggest you do that I haven't and won't so what is the so what is the reason why because this this thing that you just said where you give something away or you donate it it becomes garbage she gets melted the energy is still you talk about the energy or whatever why do you need all of that in your on your personal if that's something that you don't need all of it I don't I mean you you keep a lot I keep a lot not all of it there are stuff like literally like as time passes I get rid of other stuff I just did it when when we moved to our new house like I took the time to go through my old stuff and literally like I was all right it's time for this to go all right it's time for this to go it's time is it a time thing it is I think it is a time thing and it's also a relevance thing like I am probably way more inclined to get rid of something about like from my own personal life than like from like that has to do with like the kids in Becca you know because like that is more relevant and meaningful now like compared to a fucking you know empty beer bottle I had for my 21st birthday why because that thing that it's just one of those things I find like if I'm going to be sentimental about this stuff I'd rather you're less sentimental about yourself yes I'm more sentimental now about the family that I have and like stuff like that so like stuff that I have of my own oh yeah okay but it's a time thing it's a time and relevance thing it's interesting you're just throw it out you're just get rid of it no I don't it's not like that I mean I think that the way my mind works is if I found these shoes and it was like there was a piece of paint on there from a thing to me there's not enough of an attachment to the overall like there has to be something else like I don't need every single thing that reminds me of that to yeah exist in my like I would want something of course yeah I mean it's just I think it's obviously subjective person a person like in that moment if paint got on six things would you keep all of them probably not you would pick one yeah okay I would say yeah but because as you're like all right the paint splatter yeah because the one paint splatter because the one paint splatter puts me it reminds me of everything included in that you know what I mean okay so like I throw out the brushes that's a big paint nice I got the brushes okay I clean them out.
still the brushes that I use to paint all the kids' rooms. - Right. - So eventually I'll be like, "This is the brush." - And your kids are gonna go, "Dad, please get rid of it." - I'm like afraid, here's an example. - My god, you're gonna have a museum of your own life in your house. - Yeah, I mean, is that not what houses are? When you move out, like don't your parents give you, like here's all your shit that I kept, you can do whatever you want with it. - I know. - No, your parents do that. - My mom has stuff, but not like a lot of things. She has like folders of like, you know, shit, and like old like a school projects, maybe. - That's fair, we have like some clothing. - But there's nothing like, "Oh, this is the wallpaper from your room growing up." - Yeah, I'm like, "What the fuck am I gonna do with that?" - I'm also, let's be very clear. I acknowledge that I'm probably a little too intense about this stuff. - I'm like, that's totally fine. I'm just trying to understand the mentality behind it. The mentality is just like, I am very much so into the idea of like, you know, like you tell stories and like, you're basically right now, like if someone were to meet you, like you don't know that person, but you have a collection of stories and things that you've been with and been through and blah, blah, blah, blah. That makes and contributes to who you are. And to me, these relics, these items that I hold on to allow me to kind of bring myself back to those moments, back to those memories. Where was I? What was going on? What was our life like? Oh my God. We were expecting Ruby and then like, we were, oh, do you remember how, and you're like, it just, it kind of fuels the fire of the story. And then eventually, that fire gets dimmer and dimmer and dimmer and then maybe you pick up something and you're like, "Oh my God." And it comes back and we-- - Can you jog your memory? - Yeah, sometimes. I mean, think of how many stories you've probably stopped telling that you just forgot about. Yeah. So, you gotta keep that candle burning. I don't think that I personally don't feel like I need to. - Okay. - I think that like, that's probably okay. - Yeah, I don't think there's any right or wrong way to do it. - Yeah, no, it's not like that. - I also think, I know, are you worried? Is that like the worry though? Are you worried about you'll forget something? - Sometimes. I mean, but that's not like propelling me to do this stuff. Sometimes there is the worry of like, oh man, like what if I forget? Let me tell it again to like, but then also it's just like, I don't know, there's like, for instance, I have, you know, one of Ruby, I don't have one. I have five of Ruby's pacifiers from when she was Ruby. Eventually, I'll only have one. 'Cause I know eventually I'll be like, I don't need all five of these. But like, when I have a physical object, it's like, to me, it's like a sense of like time travel. Like I can go back to be like, oh my God, like this was the thing that she and us and at the time, like it just, to me, it feels like there is more to this item. It's like the idea of like, if you were to go and buy a dinosaur bone, you know? You go buy a dinosaur bone. It's just like, yo, this is from this time? - Yeah. - Think of the time that it's lasted, where was it? All that, like there's more to it. So I definitely understand that. I guess, like I get what you're saying and I agree with you. The part that I think that makes you stand out as far as actos is maybe the amount and the, I guess the items, like very specific niche items. - Sure, yeah. - So it's like, that's why I'm wondering the mentality behind that, because of course, like the pacifiers, like I wouldn't be surprised if you kept all of 'em, like that to me, you know, especially with like your young children, their young ones, keep everything, like you know what I mean, obviously, but the, like, you know, your shirt, that was a size medium, that of course would never, you know, like you're never gonna like wear it again and it's just like a shirt or whatever. It never reminds you of something like, still the idea that I have to keep this to. That's what I'm interested in. - It's also with clothing in particular. It's also like, I can offer to my kids one day, like miles maybe one day, he'll want to shirt. And if he doesn't, then we can get rid of it, 'cause then there's no point for me to have it, like. - But is that the reason you're keeping it? Are you supposed to keep it, like, at that time? - I would say 50, 50. - But you probably kept that shirt at a time where miles, we didn't exist. - I mean, I see what you're saying. - No, but I see what you're saying. But my mentality is just like, "Oh, it's an old shirt, I've had this shirt forever, I'm gonna keep it, maybe one day he'll want it, if he doesn't, then basically the clock expires on both of those things and it could be time to get rid of it." - Okay. - Yeah. - And do you have anyone in your life that's like that, too? - Hmm, probably not to the extent that I am. I think I definitely have people in my life, like, I think it is a part of my family, like, we all, like, took things from our childhood home and stuff like that, but I think I am probably the most intense, like, when you were younger, like. - When you're younger, do you see anyone doing this and you're like, "Oh, I like this." - I don't think so. I really do think, and as all things tend to with me, it all comes back to my mega-swords. I really do think that, seeing Toy Story 3, and realizing, like, "Oh, those toys that I played with "at that age are now gone, put me in more "and probably a concentrated position to just be like, "let me hold on to it as long as I can, "and then I want to get rid of it at my time. "I'm not blaming my mom, but I am blaming my mom." - Pixar is to blame, really. - And my mom. (laughing) - Okay, interesting. And Joey's just like, "Oh, what's this? "My kid's birthday certificate? Fuck this." - No, I'm not like that. - And he'll burn it and rip it. - No, I'm not like that. - No, I know, I know, I see a chance. Do you do that? Do you keep stuff? - No, I feel like I'm good at detaching from it unless someone, like, gifted me something maybe. Like, if it's their time and their money and their thought, I'm more likely to save it, I suppose, than anything I have. - Yeah, I think also, like, there's been times, like, in the past five years, they're like, "I do a secret Santa with my friends." And, like, sometimes you get a gift, you're kind of like, "I'm never gonna give this." And I'm okay with getting rid of that pretty suddenly, not like that day, but, like, I'm just, it's just not for me, and, like, I just don't, I don't even think that the gift was given with this, like, "This is all of me here, this item." So I'm, like, okay, with kind of detaching from stuff like that. - Yeah, I guess I get that, but I'm like you, if someone gives me a gift, I am, like, even if I'm not crazy about it, like, I'm gonna keep it, I'm gonna wear it, I'm going to, like, that's just, because it's a representation of what that person thinks of me. Now, if they get me something like, "Oh, here, whatever." You know, like, it's clearly like a, you know, like a non-thought-out thing, bit different, still gonna keep it, though. - Like, I don't know, I guess I don't know if this is weird, but, like, so, like, when people send things to my PO box, like, I'm more likely to keep that, than something, like, a family member got me as a gift. - Yeah, that is, if anything, it would be opposite. - Yeah, I know, but it's, like, I don't know. I just feel like, it feels like an extra thought, and, like, an extra purpose. - Did that hat come in the PO box? - No, this, no, no, no, it did not. - Yeah, I really wonder what it is.
