Ep 270: Studs In The Hole

This iHeartRadio podcast episode blends personal stories, sports culture, and lifestyle content to explore the emotional depth of everyday experiences. It highlights how military service is more than a career—it’s a family legacy that can open educational opportunities, such as reduced tuition at American Military University. The show dives into the irrational passion of sports fans, illustrating how fans become fully absorbed in games, even rooting for obscure players or backup athletes. It promotes interactive experiences like Underdog’s betting app, which allows users to boost payouts through strategic picks, and Audible’s audiobooks as a tool for multitasking and mental enrichment. Pandora is featured as a provider of meaningful gifts that reflect personal stories and connections. The University of Arizona Global Campus and Base44 are presented as solutions for modern challenges—flexible education and turning ideas into real apps—without technical barriers. The conversation also touches on cultural shifts, such as generational differences in Halloween traditions and parenting styles, while humorously reflecting on the absurdity of fandom and the importance of personal growth. The episode wraps with a sense of community and shared experience, emphasizing how everyday moments—like trick-or-treating or watching a game—can become meaningful and memorable.

Welcome to This is Important, a production of iHeartRadio, the show where we only. We only talk about what is most obviously very crucially important. Today on This is Important. I love a good stud in the hole. No fucking three-year-old is going to tell me what to be, alright? I think he must have a huge dick now. I can't wait for my voice to drop. Let's go! Let's go! Yes, sir! Oh my God. Hold up. What's up, gangsters? Do we have big news? Can we talk about big news about us possibly going to a new platform? Can we talk about that, Isaac? I don't know. Can we talk about that? Are we talking? Is that a thing that's happening yet? Is it under wraps? Is it top secret? We have so much under wraps shit right now. It's crazy, dude. All of our stuff is so under wraps. And Isaac, thanks for quickly getting in the chat and just writing a yes or a no. This is. This is how we're starting the show. It's a bagel. Oh, thank you, Isaac. What did he say? Deal is closed, but you can mention it. Deal is not closed, is what it says. Deal is not closed, but you can mention it. Goodbye. Okay. I feel like that's bad, bad JoJo. Yeah, that's bad. That's bad business. Well, then we can't mention it if the deal. We can't mention it. We don't want to blow the deal. But it's possible that you may find us somewhere else. Somewhere else. He's going to jinx it. Okay. He's going to jinx it somewhere else. Fuck it. Big time. All I'm saying is we're going big time. That's what I'm saying. We are. Okay. We're fully big timed. Maybe, possibly, if the deal closes. Yeah. If the deal closes. If Isaac has his druthers. It is up to Isaac. Thank goodness. He needs some druthers, dude. I like our MLB hats here, Blakey. Me and you. Yeah. Well, yeah. It's the World Series, baby. Oh, shit. Did you go, Adam? You went, right? Thank you. Thank you for that. I'm fucking just saying, can I talk about this? Here we go. Look at our hats. Well, I was going to. I mean, I thought it was funny that Blake's also wearing a baseball hat. As per usual. Almost always. Yeah, my scarlet A. Went to the World Series. I got to go twice, dude. I went the other night when it was 18 innings. Yeah. And then I went to the marathon. Oh, you went to the marathon. That sucked. You lose. I think three strikes or the first three balls thrown. Two home runs. Two runs were hit. Yeah. It was garbage. Yeah. Unless you're a Jays fan. I'm finding out if you're a Jays fan, that was very cool. Yeah. That'll relax you right out the gate. A little stress relief. Well, how about the 18 inning game, Bill? But that 18 inning game was very fun. Very epic. Did you stay the whole time? Do you want me to lie? I don't. I want to know. Do you want me to tell the truth to you? Yeah. Did you stay? Yeah. He left. Oh, no. You left. Oh, boy. No, boy. You left. You left the World Series. You left. We have a one and a half year old. We have half of a one year old. He gets up at 6 a.m. Dude. It was getting late. It was going to be a nightmare to get out of there. Yeah. You were there for history and you left? And you left. Am I frozen or are you guys frozen? I haven't heard anything anyone's saying to me for a minute. Everyone seems cool to me. I'm cool, too. Oh, there you go. It's saying my internet is unstable. So that is on me. I'm chunking. But yeah, so it was the 14th inning. They were playing. We were singing Cracker Jacks. Take me out to the ball game once again. Is that a remix? Well, I think it's 14th. So it's like 7th inning and then 14th inning. Yes, the 7th inning stretch again. And Chloe's like, we have to leave. Our son is going to wake up in like six hours. Wow. Oh, so Chloe was there. Chloe was with me. Got it. That changes everything. If I was with a friend, I would have said, I'm stuck around. But it was Chloe was there. She's like, we have to go. I need some sleep. I'm like, fine. Does she like baseball? She does not like baseball. So it was the fact that it was going. I mean, it was very fun. Jack Black was in our box. So that was cool. Yeah, I saw a pic of you two. I was super hyped. I'm like, whoa, this guy's spending 18 innings with this guy. They're probably getting to know each other. Well, I won't rat Jack out, but someone left even before me. Dude, these Hollywood motherfuckers. Dude. Yes. He probably had a call time. Yeah, probably. Probably. Uh-huh. But it was so fun hanging with him, dude. I miss that guy so much. He is my favorite Uber celebrity that I know. A-lister? Yeah. Of the like four Uber celebrities I know, he is my favorite. Right. Who's your least favorite? I don't know. And Blake doesn't count. Just so we can get the clicks. We're talking celebs. No, Uber celebs, not Uber drivers. Come on. Hey, come on now. Come on now. Hell. Burn. Yes, points. Burn. I got on the Jumbotron with Jack Black. We did a dance-off, dude. It was very fun. Yeah. Really? Yeah, it was very fun. I've never felt cooler because they put my name up on the World Series. They said Jack Black, and then it panned over to me, and then it said Adam Devine, and then it panned out, and it was the two of us, and we did a little dance-off. What the heck? That feels like it should have gone viral. Yeah, no one seemed to care. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. They're like, Adam Levine? Yeah. Who's that? Right. It did say Adam Devine with a question mark, which. Yeah. Maybe? Yeah. And then last night, I sat directly behind Charlize Theron. Oh, my gosh. I heard about this from someone. Oh, really? Who? I had a plant. Okay. I had a plant in the thing that was in the stands. It was like, are you here? I was like, I'm not. Adam's there. And he goes, I'm sitting by him. He just photobombed Charlize Theron. When they. - When they put her up on the Jumbotron, directly behind her and then i creep out and was like yeah and the crowd they make it funny faces and the crowd went nuts i do love the idea of like a cameraman fucking being like trying to like crop you out and you're like no bitch i'm getting in there uh so it was very fun way to get some screen time man dude you have to when you're there you have i love that yeah um but very very fun the dodger games are always a blast but the playoffs i hate the playoffs but i gotta go to a bunch of games um because of that uh mlb commercial i did earlier this year i did an mlb commercial which was the easiest what was the mlb commercial it was just me on i i filmed everything on a green screen but essentially it's like me walking up as aaron judge is like blasting a home run and and i'm eating popcorn and i'm like uh i'm like this one looks good judgy or whatever and then he crushes a home run and i'm like what and then it's like i'm in the outfield and a guy gets in and he's like oh my god i'm in the outfield and i'm like oh my god i'm in the outfield and i'm like oh my god i'm in the outfield and a guy gets in and i'm like oh my god i'm in the outfield and a guy gets in and i'm like oh my god i'm in the outfield and a guy gets in and i'm like oh my god makes an insane catch and i'm like no yes and i go to grab the ball and he snags it this is the one we where you almost got hurt or did get hurt doing something yeah you were jumping a lot yeah you were jumping a lot which didn't make the cut it did i did a few jumps and right that's what it was i did a few jumps yeah right and i was like pretty proud of myself that i was able to do all this stuff because of my my ailments and my body uh falling apart you say look isaac yeah and yeah and then people really came after me dude people what right yeah people were like no they were like how dare you not do the jumps you said you did jumps on the podcast and you did minimal jumps yeah who's directing those who's directing that somebody you know no it was you know i don't want to offend the person that uh did the commercials but they are not a famous director no okay yeah well they did a great job they should did a good job i i after that i i'm assuming they are now i'm assuming they're doing barbie too after that okay that's that seems like the pipeline for sure yeah it might have been actually the more i'm thinking of greta gerwig is that a famous oh then it might have been her it's possible she's the one cool she's great so those seats that you sat at last night it's impossible it was her what are the what are those real retailing as because these um dodger tickets are kind of an expanse i don't know but i was with good answer our mutual friend scotty landis oh we love scotty said over 10 grand a ticket yeah dude crazy he said 10 to 20 grand because we're in the uh like the dugout club uh which is the fancy like most expensive tickets the fanciest thing yeah um that to me is shocking yeah it's crazy uh that's that's an absolute wild amount but it's the world series and i you know i guess you know some people like that's uh that's end goal to go to the world series and watch your team so well yeah i think end goal for sure to go i don't know how many people's end goal is to go to the world series and be down ten thousand dollars yeah that part sucks i wonder what the cheapest ticket goes for i was told like 1500 no i had friends who were way up there they they paid six hundred dollars yeah i mean it's still a fucking huge wad of cash and you're like the last row but yeah it's the environment yeah i mean it is it was electric until um the first two um balls were pitched until the first like literally people are sitting down with their peanuts and cracker jacks and crank crank ten thousand ten thousand dollars the 18 inning game that that had like that was worth that felt like that i was watching the natural yeah we're like a dude just keeps stepping up and doing things i have i kept yelling at my children being like this isn't normal this is history what you're witnessing is not normal i mean it was just crazy i do feel the second i turned 40 years old yeah baseball made a lot more sense i've always liked to play baseball when i was a kid but uh watching it i'm like i don't know it's a little snooze fest then i turned 40 and then all of a sudden i'm like this is a nice game to just have on in the summertime you just absolutely turn it on the crack of the bat the announcers the soothing sounds of those announcers yeah i used to love just listening to games on the radio i thought that was just a really lovely time yeah but it was it was really fun ran ran into our boy uh adam ray ran into anderson tino and our boy sean malto uh just running into people in the in the stadium is really really fun that sounds great dude yeah yeah um we gonna we gonna turn this around in toronto what are we thinking we'll see yeah the two rough games in a row game six is tomorrow we're shooting this or recording this obviously a week ahead of time yeah this could be a sad listen i think the world series will be over you know we'll see two i think yamamoto's pitching tomorrow he's our he's our ace he's our stud in the hole so hopefully we get the dub and then we'll see about game seven that's that's i love a good stud in the hole um i love studs in the holes didn't you guys kind of hate when they just started walking uh shohei the other night where they're like we're just walking you because you're like i'm like why don't you just walk them for the game yeah how many are you allowed that's a little you're allowed infinity that's crazy that's very bitch man people were saying they want to like put a rule in where you can't it is a little bitch man but it's a it's kind of it's kind of on the next next man up like it's kind of on mookie to fucking make it happen what no no no no this is this is people look play the fucking game well that's part of the game dude it's like chess it's the strategy of it all but the dude behind him got to step up knock knock running but that it's a bad but but but then you just make all you just i would just never pitch the best hitters that ever i would just never pitch the best hitters on the team ever you could do that why would i ever do that you could do that but then but then when the next guy hits a home run then all of a sudden he's not going to why not because he's already the worst he's going to feel the pressure and then he's not going to step up well yeah i mean you'd be a good skipper man i like this i guess the hat yeah who's coming on the boat um i'm definitely be coming on the boat i guess i'm just like it seems like a fucking weird rule like you could just be like in basketball actually you can't pass to the point guard it's like what yeah it is kind of interesting now that you break it down like that i don't think there's another sport well yeah you can intentionally foul shack hack a shack that's like you're kind of breaking the game you know what i mean yeah i know and so it's like but you get fat you can foul out right if you're fouling him you can foul out so you could you want to rule where you can only be a bitch like like two times and then they take you out they're like yo stop hey you were too big of a bitch i think you can't i think you can do it to every player once okay i like that rule that's cute i don't know it just it just seems like you would have lost shohei was on fire too fucking bad you don't have him the other team does and also people are paying to see this shit don't forget this isn't baseball this is entertainment like this is entertainment i feel the same way about when they bend players in basketball because they're like he's resting it's like someone just paid upwards of however many hundreds of thousands of dollars to come see this person fucking i'm getting pissed now come on what are we doing you're right that's fucked up people are dropping ten thousand dollars and you're walking showy every time what the fuck dude and i like you call him showy you wanted to see the showy i understand if you want to you want to elongate somebody's career for basketball right like it's we're resting them so they can play longer and get another deal or whatever i hate to break it to you but every fucking year for 10 years i pay x amount of dollars to go see somebody play and they're benched because they're resting every year for 10 years what are we doing that's why i got rid of my clipper my courtside clipper tickets because did you hear that clippers did you hear that because kawaii was resting too much kawaii resting so much and i never got to see him play and it absolutely sucked and the security's chasing you right now i'm with you it's very it's very it's very bitch made well but adam this is another this is a sports heavy pod but we you like led the what

it's called a cheer section yeah you're like the guy who's like girls let's do this it's not it's fine yeah isn't that you had on gloves i believe you didn't have so like let's keep it all the way and by the way they didn't give me those gloves i requested them i don't know i thought you brought them from home my man's rocking no no no everyone everyone had the gloves there was 500 people behind me all with white gloves got it and then they gave me this this imagine i don't really know the things that are - Yes. - But the gloves. Kind of unforgettable. Leap with the gloves. Absolutely. So, it's called The Wall. And the free throw percentage is, when you play at the Clippers, the opposing team, the free throw percentage is at the lowest in the NBA because of this wall. Because it's a vertical wall. There's 500 fans that are absolute psychopaths. We get the craziest people that wear all Clipper gear and lose their fucking minds. Yeah. Crackheads. The entire game. You guys are just bringing in psychopaths to stand in that section. Yeah. It's psychopaths for the good of the Clippers. And I am fully about it. It's science. And it was so fun. And they asked me if I wanted to do this thing called Divine Intervention. Hello. For the opening home game. And my head was floating on that giant circular jumbotron that they have there at the game. This is like a blimp? The blimp thing? No. They have a giant screen that goes all the way around. Right, right. And my head was like floating on it. Got it. Which is pretty cool looking. And then. It's cool. It's kind of cool. It's kind of cool. Yeah. So they give me the microphone and I'm allowed to yell and do crazy shit until the player gets the ball. And then they cut the microphone. Right. So people thought I was screaming as he's shooting, but that wasn't the case. I'm screaming until the referee. Let's go with the ball. And then the player gets it. And then they, they cut the mic. Cause you're on a mic, but you can scream. You can scream. You just can't scream into the mic. And you could have said anything, right? I could have said anything. You had a lot of power right there. I sure did. Shoulda, woulda, coulda. Damn. You did a lot of power, but it was mostly like bring the energy, you know, that shit. And then he missed the free throw. It was pretty cool. So now do you have to, do you have to do it all the time now? No. I just did it the once and they gave me courtside seats. Yeah. Yeah. It was sick. It was the best. And yeah, they, they missed it. I got a lot of hate for it. A lot of hate for it. The comments were brutal. Who, who missed? The other team? The other team. Yeah. Yeah. He missed his free throw. It was huge, but yeah. They're like, how dare he do this? What is the NBA coming to? But then you look at what they do in Europe and it's absolute mayhem. Right. They've got like smoke bombs and fucking, yeah. And you're like. Yeah. That, isn't that what sports are about? It's like the fan experience of just being absolute psychopaths in the, in the stands to try to get the other team to miss. That's to me. Right. That's what's cool about it. So. Game on. Adam, remember when you stabbed Monica Sellis, the tennis player? Just got her. Right. Yeah. I don't know what those words meant. She got stabbed. She was a tennis player. A fan stabbed her. Oh shit. I didn't know that. Yeah. When did this happen? The 80s. Oh. Topical. It's a legacy. No. No, no, no, no. Not me. Yes, yes, yes. Absolutely you. Oh man, they're getting cooked. Uh-huh. Because once you got something on the line, you become a complete lunatic. What's his name? I have no idea. No, it doesn't. That's sports.

Like, at the end of a game. Usually, it's like college, right? Yeah. I say, in college, it's fine. Yeah. Because they're college kids, and it's exciting, and, you know. And then the players are also college kids, so they're like, look, my homies are running. Right. We're all celebrating. This is a blast. But in the NFL, those guys can then beat up whoever comes on the field. Right. I think in college, it's fine. It's all fun. It's all fun in games. Once they're pro, and they're like, hey, if you tackle me, and I twist an ankle, and I miss three weeks, I'm missing five million. That's the case in college now. They're getting Millie. Yeah. They still would get the same Millie. It's not pay for play. It's not like you have to play a certain amount of games. If a guy gives you $3 million to come on for the team, if you get hurt, you still get the $3 million. I don't know the intricacies of people's deals, and if it's like, hey, we're going to give you one to come here, and we're going to give you one at the end of the season, I don't know the deals. But I'm just saying money is also a factor now in college. Sure. That is true. So you might see some football players beating up some college kids. You're right. But I do know the deals, and that's not the case. Oh, I forgot. It's what I said. Yeah. Nice. Are you guys pro-storming then? Is that what you're saying? Are you pro-storming? I don't know. In college, I think it's fun. It seems fun. In the pros, I'm like- Yo, chill. What about storming the Capitol? Storming Daniels? Are you pro that? What about storming Daniels? Storming the Capitol? Well, did the Capitol just win? He's all about storms, apparently. Did the Capitol just win something? Yeah, like an election. Yeah. Oh, yeah. If you're pro that election. Okay. Fuck it. Okay. If you're in a celebratory manner, storm on, dude. Let me get this on the record. Let me get this on the record real quick. Yeah. Blake Anderson, do you like elections? I'm into him. I say, like, if your guy wins. okay storm we gotta storm if your guy loses he storm okay let's storm everything oh let's storm more shit and you think votes are really counted okay to a point to an extent they round up for sure storm and do you think votes should be able to storm the field yeah absolutely absolutely okay you heard it here i'm just trying to make some clickbait guys rage you know

they don't seem did snoop come out he did he did at the end he did he did uh you know what maybe i did see something about this yes but that's why adam and this is why it should be very important to you both rap crews are very much new orleans representatives yes that's why they've they've been in the news for a long time and they've been in the news for a long time and they've been in the news for a long time and they've been in the news for a long time and they've been in the news for a long time and they've been in the news for a long time and they've been in the news for a long time they feel like they're the same yes so it was a very and that's what people were kind of clowning about it like it was at vegas and it wasn't so turnt up but i think it was i think if they did it in new orleans it would have gone a little complex it's cool that it was at vegas not in vegas um that's a cool thing yeah yeah it was around it was at it was kind of at there yeah why not why not do it in new orleans i just think it could have got like a little too spicy just so right it was you know how my dad says uh new orleans and it drives me crazy every time my dad says new orleans new orleans drives me yeah i think that's common for people his age that shit's important right it drives me nuts even no matter how many times i tell him i go actually they just pronounce it new orleans and he's like nah no they don't chloe's from new orleans and she goes no they do it's it's new orleans my wife it's new orleans and he's like yeah i don't think so i've been does he say it's new orleans i don't think so i've been i've been i've been i've been i've been do you say oregon uh you know probably that that would check out yeah fuck it yeah i think that it's like how we some people say iraq now oh yeah people that age they say iraq they're living under iraq there it is but they're doing people say iraq is that's how it's iraq and they say iran yeah that's because that's how it's pronounced like in the 90s it was definitely iraq and iran oh for sure yeah oh yeah for sure we were hard hard a by the way for me still is i didn't know acting like your dad dude yeah well i didn't know i didn't know now now guess what you're gonna change um no probably not no probably not this my god i am my father i'm my father's son you know well maybe you should flip back my father's keeper what does that mean i'm my father's keeper i guess it's brothers keep brothers you're not your guys again just trying to get clicks these guys don't know what father's keeper is click here to see if they actually did rage bait i will say rage bait you're living rage bait dude it's uh it does bug me like i i'm starting to see some shit that i'm like this actually pissing you off pisses me off and i know it's just to get people pissed off right like i saw one about the guy was singing and it it did not seem like ai it was a guy singing a song about how much he doesn't like his kid and how cool he was compared to his son at his age and his son was sitting next to him right like rolling his eyes being like oh dad and i'm like right he for sure coached his son like i'm gonna do this insane

just busting out this song to your kid all right hey i was just dog ear this one everyone so wait you you that doesn't seem like rage bait you were just mad because it it was obviously fake you

could shit on your kids but you do it to other adults when your kids aren't around sure right right and you could put it to song you could put it to song just don't let the kids listen to that song

Not one time. Not one time. Maybe my mom dressed up as a gypsy, which was a thing you could do in the 80s. What the hell? Your mom was brown-faced? None. I don't know if gypsies are a certain color. I think it's just kind of a. I wasn't necessarily tagging onto that. A nomadic-ness to a gypsy. She just had like big earrings. Well, what is wrong with. She was seen as a gypsy. I think that. Is that not a thing? Well, I don't think the word gypsy is a good word anymore. I don't think you're supposed to say the word gypsy. Why? I think that's a derogatory term. Why? And look, I'm just speaking historically. I think the word comes from like. Connotation? Yeah, it's just not good. Gypsy. Yeah, but you don't know why. I like how Blake goes, it's not good, and he just says it for no reason. You're so uncomfortable. I just. By the way, have you ever. Have you ever met a gypsy? So storm the Capitol. I don't think they exist. They were a thing. They were like people thieves. They were thieves. Hey, listen. Let's ask. They were brown thieves. Gemini says brown? I don't know how brown they need to be. The only time I've ever seen a gypsy is. You gotta stop saying gypsy, dude. Is in Peaky Blinders. And. And what? It was definitely not good. There's no way. And half of his family, they come from a long line of gypsies. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And they travel around. Exactly. It's a nomadic thing. And they're tricksters. They're tricksters. Grifters? Is that real? They might trick you out of some of your hard-earned cash. Right. And read your poems and that kind of shit. They're savvy. They're con artists. Yeah. So I think they're kind of cool. Gemini AI says you can say gypsy, but it depends on the context, as the word can be considered both a legitimate and an offensive term. It is best used as a specific term. The fuck? Who cares? Romani? Roma? Traveler? Roman. Romani. Somebody who roams. Yeah, Romans. Are they Roman people? No. Were they Roman? With an apostrophe at the end. No. Will you shut up? What, dude? God, dude, you're so dumb. Where were gypsies from? Where are they from? The point is they're not from anywhere. They are nomadic. Yeah, they roam around. That's what they do. Everybody's from somewhere. Hey, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Your mind is so narrow. Do you really believe that? In Peaky Blinders, they were from England and they would just travel around all over. Okay. And you could never quite find them, you know, because they're always in their wagons. Who are some of the famous examples of gypsies? Aladdin. He was a gypsy, right? What? Wasn't Aladdin a gypsy? No. No, I think he was a homeless guy. He was just a homeless kid. Yeah, a hobo. Riffraff. Riffraff street rat. You know, I was a. I went as Halloween as a hobo. Classic. Yeah. Classic little hobo. Every. I think I did too. I did too, yes. You just put like dirt on your face and then wore like your oldest clothes. Very offensive. Bow, I'm going to dress him as a hobo. That's kind of funny. Hobo bow? Yeah. Like a little hobo bow. Hobo, that's pretty. Okay, wait. Yeah. That's points. Yes, points! I got nothing for trick-or-treating tomorrow. I'm kind of scared I'm going to have to. You have no candy? Well, A, nobody comes on our street for. Except for me. Nobody comes on our street for trick-or-treating. You come on your street? Yeah, just to like, you know, feed the birds. Yeah, mark territories. Yeah, I get that. I'm going to come. Just so everyone knows you're a good dad. Yeah. Yeah. Check me out. Look at all the come outs. Oh, all right. Have at it. He must be a good dad. Oh, look, they hung spider webs for Halloween. Did I? Darth Skater. And guys, the deal did fall through. The deal is not. The deal is not closing. The deal. Yeah, uh-huh. And it fell through. We can mention it, but the deal is not closing. It is getting worse. It's cool if we do mention it. Oh, you'd rather we did it. Oh, okay. Yeah, it fell through. Okay. Fair enough. And that's because it did fall through? Okay, we'll try to get it back. We'll try to get it back. Nobody trick-or-treats on our street. Because it's wide. Because it's really dark. There's cum everywhere. Of course. Yeah, they're going to slip. But I got nothing. I haven't thought of anything. So I'm going to have to come up with. Maybe I'll just. Do you want us to help you? Use the mustache. I'll carry a lightsaber and throw up everywhere, and I'll be Puke Skywalker. I don't know what we're doing here. We'll do it live! Maybe you talk to. Yes, punch! Maybe you open a portal to another realm, talk to Lamal Spellswell, and see if he can loan you a costume. Yeah, maybe whiz it up. Or you know what I like about Halloween? But then I got to go buy a beard, because his is real. That's true. That's true, and you would have to buy a beard. What if you just, um, dress in, uh, female clothing? Why don't you go just in, like, a dress? As the world's tallest woman. Yeah. Without. Classic. And just bleed real blood? Halloween's a great day to wear a dress, I think. Yeah, I agree. I mean, every day's a pretty good one. Yeah, go for it. Knock yourself out. Uh, I'm not going to do that. I'm going to dress as a good dad. I'm going as a good mom. Yeah, you go as a good mom. Best mom. And what is a mom? And, you know, my kid wanted me. My kid wanted me to be a clown, but daddy's going as a good mom. And how would you describe, uh, what a mom is? Yeah. I'm happy you have daughters. Um. That's your daughter in the water. Any take-backs? Any apologies? Is it already that time? It sure is. It's sad. This was fun. I hope we continue this convo on the next one. Wait, what are you dressing as, Blake? Me? Yeah. I'm a rodeo clown. That's right, that's right, that's right. I'm looking very forward to it. I love clowns, personally. Makes sense. We have Paw Patrol happening in our family. Okay. And some gladiators. And I'm like, gladiator? What? Yes, points! I guess. That was an old workaholics writer's room. Yeah, we are, uh. Yeah, we're gonna go trick-or-treating super, super early. The start time for trick-or-treating over here? Mm-hmm. 4.30. Holy moly. Yeah. If that's not the earliest trick-or-treat time, I'm like. But that's for the littlest ones before it gets, like, dark and super scary when teenagers are just running. Running around with, like, head wounds. Oh, it's the best. That was so fun. Dude, I don't know. Bo has been outside at night maybe five times. Damn. He is not. He is very much in the house by the time it gets dark. What's up with that? Uh, he just goes to bed every night at. He's gotta be drinking his baba in his room at 7 p.m. Right. So. Yeah. But what about on, like, a Friday in the summertime? Yeah, 18-inning game. It's still light out by 9 o'clock. Well, now it's starting to get dark. Is this his first daylight savings time? No, no, no. He's almost two. Hmm. Yeah. You know how that works? It's okay. None of us know the age of anybody. You guys, the deal's back on. The deal's back on. The deal's back? They just heard that and they were like, there's no way he's that stupid. We need to hear more. You cannot announce it. Maybe I just did. But the deal is indeed back on. Potentially. Okay. Okay. Celebrate. Celebrate good times, dude. I'm having a blast with you guys, man. Yeah. Well, I can't wait for him to see darkness. That's going to be great. I remember the first time I saw darkness. Hello, darkness, my old friend. I remember night first. Yeah. He gets very scared. He's been, you know, he's been outside in the backyard and stuff, but like out in the wild at night, not that often. Right. He gets very scared during the cars, in the movie Cars, when it gets dark and the car gets lost. Oh, dude. Sure. He will run. He will run and find you, even though you're like eight feet away.
