Welcome to This Is Important, a production of I Heart Radio, the show where we talk about what's obviously most critically crucially important. Today on This Is Important, if I poop a little bit and then I poop a little bit more, well that's called the double feature. You were such a bitch in high school, weren't you? Excuse me, what school do you go to? I don't recognize you from Clayton Valley. Let's go. Be ready, Tessie. To people still do this one. Buddy, which one? Oh yeah, they can. No one's going to stop him as what Adam said. No one will stop you. How would you describe that? What do we call that dance move? I know it as like, I think I saw Shaq do it at like a championship. No, Adam. Adam went from like, you were just Adam's, you were just doing this and then you went to like Gofer from Caddy Shaq. Come on now. What the microphone is too close to me. I didn't want to back up from the mic. Okay, okay, okay, it's not this. Adam, whoa, I have no snare on my head. Adam's, you're like serving appetizers to the gods. I get it. I remember that dance. That's the name of the dance move appetizers to the gods. We were just talking about before hopping on, before the official hop on. We were talking about the fights that now people are doing the sort of quasi-famous people are now. They're like quasi-famous? Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're like quasi-famous and now they are fist fighting each other for our enjoyment. I love that that's where we're at as a society. Yeah, Adam, you're saying quasi-famous? They're more famous. They're famous. Well, no, I think the first thing I don't know. Ray, Ray J is famous. Yes, but who did he fight? Who did he fight? Who did he fight? He fought the super hot fire guy. Super hot fire. The guy from the sketch is from the voice of a generation if we want to be real. I mean, super influential sketch. I'm sure. Super influential sketch. I'm sure everybody. Okay. Yes, points. I guess let's explain the sketch because there's people that don't know super hot fire. You think we have to, Adam, I feel like they know. They know. No, they don't. If he was on that card. I think they know him more than they know Martin Moll. Well, I refuse to explain who Martin Moll is. Martin Moll is also like, I think he's been dead for a long time. A little bit. A legends never die. Also, if he wasn't, he'd be like 90s. So I think that we're talking current age people and the super hot fire guy. Super hot Martin. He started isn't probably at the level that most people would know who he is. Blake, please explain and Todd, could we lower my headphones a little bit? Everything including Adam, I'm sure loud, dude. Maybe your ears are just on fleek. That could be my ears could be on fleek. Well, Adam figures as I think the old sketch was a rap battle, like a rap freestyle battle. And this one dude, super hot fire, would just hit the guy he was battling with like a pretty, you know, mid-tier bar. But then the whole crowd would flip out in a way that he just absolutely annihilated this guy. And he would kind of look to a camera. And then he hit him with the gem. Did Jim steal the looking of the camera from super hot fire? Todd? Todd? By the way, that was an incredible sketch. It was very, but I don't know if that guy is super famous. Well, to my point, that's why he's quasi famous. Adam, you wish. Well, then this was a great career move because he ended up, he ended up knocking out Ray Jay. Yeah, now he's back. That's what I'm saying. Really? Is he like older and jacked? Yes, Ray Jay is still in the hospital. He's in the hospital. No, he isn't. Yeah, yes, man, he's laid up, man. You know what? It might be one of those procedures where like, you go in because you got beat up. And then he's also like, we got, I got to get a penile reduction. It's solemn in here. While we're here. Hey, we know we, yeah, that take off a few inches. My back's killing me. We know exactly what he's working. Yeah, Ray Jay. Well, dude, his back is killing him because I watched part of it. And he has a belly in the way I have a belly. But I'm built to have a belly. Okay. Ray Jay wasn't built for belly. Okay, right. That his, his belly looked, it didn't look proportional on him. Yeah, yeah, it looked like it looked like he is a little distended like it was his back was arching. I'm like, that has to be terrible on your lower back. Yeah, it was a ball put on top of his ring. It would be as when Blake finally gets the belly that we all know is coming. At some point, it's just going to, it's just going to flop out. Coming with when it's Miller time. It's not he's not coming. He's not coming. What's going to happen is Blake's going to have, he's going to reach the amount of like course lights that you can drink as one human can drink. And all the same, he's going to finish that course light. In a way, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo. Just going to level up the banquet of belly. That number does not exist, brother. That number does not exist. Yeah, so, so, so super hot fire describe his body for me, please. He was in, he was in better shape. And how long did they have to get in shape? Like, did they have three months to like pump iron and like, hit bag? I, I don't know all the details. I'm going to hit some bars. I don't know when you get, I don't know when you sign up, how long you have until you, you have to fight. That's a great question because I assume if we ever signed up to do that, why don't you want to know your window to really of us have to fight each other? We were trained. Yeah, three way tried would be must see. Yeah, we got it to actually must see. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, what we would have to, what we would have to do is fight another threesome. It would have to be a six person brawl. Oh, like, you ever watched those YouTubes? Like they're like the Russian fights where it's like six on six. And then as you start to get knocked out, I know what you're talking about. Yeah, your team doesn't shrink. It's not like one for one. It becomes like six guys against one dude. And it just is a beat. I like how it's always like new jersey versus Poland. And you're like, oh, all right. Oh, it's just New Jersey. Got it. Dude, I don't know. No, I don't know. Oh, I don't know. I think Poland might have them. Did the back hair situation, whoever's got the more back hair always wins? Dude, whatever, like all the, I don't know. You have seen that well. Sure. This isn't my world. Yeah. But the wherever, is it Kabib? Is that the guy's name? Or is that like a delicious street meat? It's gotta be, Bo. I think, I think he's named after the street. Yeah, is it, is he, is he Kabib? Is that the guy I'm thinking of? Yeah, sure. I think it's Kabib, right? Is it like Kabib? Is it so? I just want to use Kabib. Kabib. Kabib. Yeah. Well, anyways, wherever that guy's from, it's the scariest place alive. And New Jersey, if they just got 10 of those guys, and we got the 10 baddest motherfuckers from America, I'm scared. Well, I think America would win because we're pretty dastardly in a fight. Sure. But wherever he's. from the street meat man, wherever that guy's from, because they're just over there. They're different. They're like, "It's different." Adam, that's the word. It's different. It's different. It's different. They are not different. It is different. And so they are products of the difference. See, we train in gyms. We train in gyms. It is different. Yes. You are right. They train in rivers. They fight bears. Yes. It's like, it's a whole different protocol. Which, by the way, you fight a bear? If you train in a river and you're fighting bears, you're going to beat the guy at Gold Gym. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude. You're going to beat him. Yeah. It's just right. That's the rule. He's on creatine and they're like, we eat rocks. Yeah, dude. I just eat gravel. I'm filled with pebbles. We eat what creatine is made from, which is the guts of Sam. You eat fruity pebbles, I eat pebbles that were rolled in fruit juice. I fight in a river. I fight in a river. I train in rivers. I eat aquarium gravel. What is, by the way, because I've seen people like wrestling bears on the internet. Where are you pulling the train in rivers? What visual is that? No, I think I've seen the video of them like running across. I've seen the footage, the bro, to get his stand-em-up. He just is in a river, like swimming against it, running in it, like running against the current. There's so many workouts you can do in a river. This one is around us given by nature, right, which is always rocks, rocks. Like the functional strength of these guys, that you can't train that in a gym. There's no going to, you know, 24-hour fitness or an equinox and getting that level. Which? Maybe that's our business idea. We make a very like nature-forward gym that trains you as if you're outdoors. It's almost like a danger room for them. This can't be just an outdoors thing. No, we got it, 'cause we want it. It's an indoor gym that trains you like around the earth. 'Cause guess what, there's, you know, that influencer babes aren't going to show up. You want to be able to like control the strength of the river, and I realized like, now, yeah, okay, now we don't have-- Well, you got to build up. Right. You can't not everyone's a kebab. Or a kebab. I feel like you're not tapping into an untapped resource here, which is nature babes. I mean-- Legs are a little hair. We're trying to wrap that up. We're trying to make money off of it, and you can't-- But that market's already cornering the way. By very clean gyms with good lighting, and they got the tri-pods for your phone everywhere. Yeah, no, but I understand both of your points, okay, and I totally agree. On both sides of the fence, I'm like a green with both of you, but I will say-- I will say a usable functional fitness river in a gym. So we can train like goddamn Americans in a gym where there's a high-protein snacks available, ramen, maybe some energy drinks that'll make our hearts explode. They just-- That has to be close by, okay, we're Americans. This is releasing salmon, and then when it gets to the end of the river inside a building, they just take it to the top. They just put it back in, it goes again. Oh, that's not a bad idea, dude. Well, I'm saying you have the river, and then you have a little knob, like, you know, regulars American style, and then you turn it up once you get more kebib, it goes from American all the way to different. It's different. It goes from American, to not us, to different, to something else. To black, white, polkadot, just don't matter to me, it ain't us. To don't matter, it goes to polkadot, then you know you're in for it because you come out looking like-- I don't know, I don't know. Something else. Something else. Different. Sure. I'm Jake Brennan, and on my podcast, Hollywood Land, I revisit some of the biggest stories from Hollywood history, separating the myths people want to believe from the reality underneath them. Like how the story of Marilyn Monroe isn't just the story of a Hollywood icon. Marilyn Monroe has become so iconic that her death can only be explained through conspiracy theories, and for some fans who can't let go, these stories have metastasized from conjecture to accept it fact. So on August 4th, 1962, Marilyn Monroe died, then the rumors started, and she died again, and now we're going to set the record straight and learn about the way Marilyn Monroe actually died, the third way. Something more about what happens when fame, media obsession and conspiracy collide. Listen to Hollywood Land on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. I moved a dresser last week. Uh-huh. Oh, yeah. Oh, okay. Okay. Oh, Jesus. No, I do. I'm so offended. I moved a dresser, and it's with my buddy. And he's a strong man, but he's, he does like a lot of, he works on a lot of houses, he's like a contractor. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. All right. I am visibly much stronger than this man. If you were to just say, I look stronger, yeah, I'm definitely more defined. I bet if we went to the gym, I would lift heavier than him, okay? But then the way he man handled this dresser. Yeah, yeah. Was unreal. I'm a dude. I was struggling with this dresser. And he just fucking whipped and nay-nade with it. He moves like a man. It was different. I think, I think we covered this because in college, I worked at a liquor store and we had to like be in the back with kegs. And on day one, the day one, I was like, uh, how am I going to do this? And I watched these other guys just grab them, toss them, stack them like two or three high. And I'm like, what? Maybe not three high, two high, definitely though. And then like 10 days in, you just, you have it, your body understands. It adapts. It completely adapts to the party. In any way, I cut off Blake who's going to tell a better story. It's science. Oh, not at all, bro. I'm. Well, Blake's story is suck just as much as yours and mine suck. I'm terrible. I have no story. Sometimes you got to have a beginning in the middle. And then the end you're like, Blake, I have no story of strength. And you sort of bail and, and yeah, I give it to the homie. Yeah. You chuck it. Is it beginning in the middle? And in I pass the mic to play, but on a mic, I don't give me the mic and I pass the mic to Adam. Okay. Well, okay. We can go back to the MMA fighting because we didn't cover all of them. Where's my star? J and super hot fire were kind of like dudes who are a little out of shape. But then there was Michael Beasley and Lance Stevenson, who X basketball, former NBA stars and still in good shape. Lance is famously known for blowing in LeBron's ears. Yes. And doing like, whenever he hit a three, would do like a cool guitar celebration. Yes. Yeah. But you know, he did that so that he'd be remembered for something besides blowing in LeBron's ear. Yeah. Yeah. And that was like a conversation with him and his agent and their just pitching ideas. And Lance was like, I don't know, maybe I hump the air or something. And then this is they just like, well, we actually recruited a bunch of second city guys to have some pitches. Here's one. Yeah, dude. What if I just get down and hump the ground? Yeah. It can be cool, dude. This guy did air guitar. Yeah. It's gonna fly. You did an air guitar. Wait. Would you say? Maybe. A moment when he was blowing in LeBron's ear, I mean, it was, it was pretty cool. It was working. Was it his ear or what? I thought it was his leg. It might have been it blowing in his leg. Classic. You know, I like you, he went to like tie his shoe and then he just like, no, no, I think they were standing at the line for free throw. They were leaned over like baseball, outfield or stance at the free throw line waiting for a rebound. And he just blew in his ear and LeBron just kind of like shrugs and laughs it off. Whereas, I feel like I definitely would have been like, yeah, I would have blown my ear there. The fuck? Dude, though, those are the, like when you are a sportsman and you play those mind games. An athlete? An athlete. A sportsman. A sportsman. A job. Is it a sportsman? If you're a ball guy, if you're a ball player guy, that's what you call athletes sportsmen. If you're one of the like the ball, the ball dude guy, I'm telling you, man, that mental warfare. I love that shit. I love it. It is part of it. I love villains. I love villains of sports. Like everybody like dream on green so it's so good. Dude, you know, who my favorite, um, and then the Clippers had him for a while and boy, did I love him when he was a Clipper Pat Beverly, Patrick Beverly, yeah, he was the worst. He was the best. The worst. Yeah. Yeah. Remember when he went and grabbed the photographer's camera and like made like the referee look at like it was there's moments that are just, yeah, he was a true lunatic and like such a pesk too. Like he, he was just like get all up in their grill, uh, like just on defense, which is like an amazing defense of flayer. Yes. He wears you down. but in a way that you respect it. - Right. - Yeah, yeah. - He's not throwing wild arms and like kicking people in the nuts like some warriors plays her. - Yes, Dreymon, bitch ass. - Hey, stop and chest. - Yeah. - He's wild. - He's wild. - He is. He's insane. If you watch all Dreymon greens like super flagrant plays Back to back to back to back to back to back to back to back to back. Oh it's Dastardly. Oh my gosh. It's crazy. You just want to have a sit down and go. You good? He's not good. All right. It looks like a Jason Jason Staython like real dude. He's always he's always about to fight something. Yeah. Oh, his own teammates. Did you see the thing with the shack and uh, no Charles Barclay and Dremon on inside the NBA? Oh please. Oh yeah. That there was like a real tense situation. What basically Charles Barclay was saying like these players are getting too old in the NBA and you're hanging on you're making all this money essentially and you got to know when it's time to go and Dremon obviously took offense to that little and he says well none of us want to look like Charles Barclay on the rockets. You're stupid. And he goes to Shaq and Kenny like you know what I mean and Shaq and Kenny was like ah, I think you got to explain that one. I'm a dumbass. And then it was just heated where he was just kind of going off on Charles and saying like in so many words he was like you wouldn't know what it's like to compete at the highest level right when you're winning championships. You're always trying to run it back right and it got real heated and Charles has never won a championship right? No, that's it. But it would be regarded as a better basketball player than Dremon. Dremon? Yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah. Right. Charles is one of the 75 right when they did that like yeah. Yeah. And I don't know if Dremon was right. I don't think Dremon was. It was what? On one of the 75. That list of 75 greatest that they did. I don't know. I don't know that he is because he is such like a niche player in that he's a defensive specialist. He's a rodman for sure was on that list. What's he that wouldn't he have been? Oh he has to be. I don't know. The worm. Was he the worm? Yes, he was the worm. Yeah. I know my sportsman. Yeah. I know that sports ball do. Uh-huh. I know Durs knows this sportsman but then always asks but it's always it's usually right when he's I say I say I make a statement and then hang a little right on the little question. I'm Jake Brennan and on my podcast Hollywood Land I revisit some of the biggest stories from Hollywood history separating the myths people want to believe from the reality underneath them. Like how the story of Marilyn Monroe isn't just the story of the Hollywood icon. Marilyn Monroe has become so iconic that her death can only be explained through conspiracy theories and for some fans who can't let go these stories have metastasized from conjecture to accept it fat.

On big lives we take a single cultural icon. People like Jane Fonda, George Michael, Richard prior and we pull apart the story behind the image. And we do this by digging through the BBC's Fast Archive. We're talking iconic moments in broadcast history. I'm not just a boxer, I'm educating, I can talk all week on millions of subjects. And forgotten interviews that change how we see these giants of our culture. Well if changing the system from the ground up is revolutionary and then I'm revolutionary. We're here for the messy, brilliant, the human version of our heroes. When I go on stage, I like to dress as slutty as possible because it makes me dance better for some reason. That call was really pivotal for me. Hey, it's Emily Tish Sussman and this season on She Pivots, the podcast where women share bold career moves and personal turning points that changed everything. I sit down with culture shifting women who share their pivots like Para Olympian Alley Truett. I was like, I'm on out from a shark attack. There's no way in 11 months I'm making the verilandics advocate Elizabeth Smart. I still feel that drive that I can still make a difference so I'm gonna keep going. Celebrity chef Carla Hall was that scary to walk away from such a stable career after just two years? No, I was more afraid of being unhappy than I was broke and in a dead in job that I didn't enjoy. An feminist legend, Gloria Steinem. All of us were trying to express women's real lives. We need a meeting place of our own and if I can contribute to that, I'd like to maintain that and leave this house for that purpose. Listen to She Pivots on the iHeartRadio app Apple Podcast or wherever you get your podcasts. Dear Hunnies, this is goodbye. In February of 2024, celebrated illustrator and children's book author Patre Matheres and her husband Michael, nailed letters to dozens of friends and family members to let them know that they had died by suicide. By the time you get the shalliter boat Petra and I will be dead. Next stop, Wonderland. Patre and Michael were by all accounts healthy, happy, and in love. Why did they do it? And what did it do to the people they left behind? I would have given a million reasons to not leave this world. I keep going back to a truly hope that Patre was a thousand percent on board with the plan. Do you think of him as having killed her? Yes, I do. I hold Michael responsible for my mother's death. I'm Leon Nayvak. And I'm Alice Gregory. Together, we set out to interview everyone who got one of Patre and Michael's letters, as one married couple trying to understand another. Listen to death of an artist on the iHeartRadio app Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. I guess while we're on the basketball subject, are you guys freaking pumped that the New York nicks are in the finals? I'm kind of hyped on that. I think it's good for America. I like it. Yeah, I think it's cool, but you know what? And this isn't going to go over well. This isn't going to go over well. Whoever they play, I wanted to go seven games, but if New York is just heartbroken and they don't get it, bad for America. I don't know if it's bad for America. It's bad for America, man. It's science. I don't know. We need this. You're not from New York. This is going to heal. This is going to heal 9/11. This is going to like, I knew you were going to say. You always bring it back. You say that every time. I do. You're always like, this is going to heal 9/11. 9/11 has been long enough at this point. I don't know if this will be. We got to pet for our kids. I said, honey, 9/11. All right, okay. I'm allergic. I'm okay. I'm super allergic to dogs, but if it's going to heal 9/11, you sneeze, you might not get another building down. And I like New York, and I like the East Coast, but I've seen that t-shirt, actually. I like New York. That's the same. I like New York. I like it a lot. I like New York. No one is, no one is more annoying than East Coast sports fans. Hold up. I mean, the most annoying. I mean, yeah, coming from a person who has never lived on the East Coast, I do agree with that. That's the thing. What I'll say is that they're the biggest sports fans, which I love. I have love for that. I like, I also love that. Right. Because if you compare them to like an L.A. Dodgers fan, there's a lot of diehard Dodgers, but there's also a lot of like, let me just dust off this Dodger hat that I got out last year and go to my game and, uh, yeah, but there's so many, the same Yankee fans, the same thing as Yankee fans, if people just wear Yankee hats, don't want to make it. I don't think so. I think it means a whole other thing there. No, I think it's no, no, no. I mean, I, I see your, well, there's, I mean, there's transplants in, in New York, but when we're speaking of the East Coast, like a lot of the East Coast has really annoying fans. It's not just New York. That's exactly right. But that's something they give a fuck. They care. I don't do. I know. They do. They wear their heart. They totally get that they care. I think they care. And if they win, I think they care. I think that's exciting. I would be high, but watching the shot of Madison Square Garden, if they lose the amount of like, ah, fuck you, fuck you. Here's what I, here's what I fear. They lose. We're going to see a police horse on fire running through Manhattan. It's going to be, well, you're right. We're going to see it on fire. They're going to turn the camera. They're going to. Yeah. Then we're just going to see it upside down legs in the air. Bro ribs open flames coming from within. They're going to turn it into a cold drink like the movie Carl. I love that. Yeah. Hell yeah. No, you're right. Yeah. Well, maybe they have to win. Obviously, Jaylen Brunson is a star, right? He's obviously a star. He's got this team on his shoulders. What he's done has been unfucking real. Yeah. He's a great ballspot. Especially that game where they made the comeback. I do really like the team. I think they're awesome. But are they Lacking star power absolutely. Well, I mean We'll find out it seems like the teams, like what were the teams that won when Jordan went to go play baseball? No, the Rockets think it was, yeah, they Houston Rockets probably, they won twice. And who'd they have? They had Hakeem Elijah Wong. Hakeem Elijah Wong. Hakeem The Dream. They also had Clyde Drexler at some point. Oh, really? Yeah. And oh, Kenny The Jetsmith. And of course. Yeah. From NBA. Interesting. From NBA. From NBA. He's my favorite ball sports, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, um, and, and, uh, heart, right? Heart. Kevin Hart. Kevin Hart. Yeah, Kevin Hart. He was real young, but he was there. No, no, no, what's the same heart? I don't know. His last name's heart though, right? Oh, Josh heart. Josh heart on the next. Also, one of the funniest memes, uh, memes are gifts of all time. He's a very meme. Oh, yeah. Is it the one word that they would hit some sides of the ball? And he just goes, does the NBA has the best meme? Well, you can see their faces. Yeah. The NBA has the best memes and also the NBA has the best highlight reels. Absolutely. You know what I mean? And it's just very much. What do you mean, just like the dunks? Uh, yeah. It's just electric. Tonight's dunks. It's just electric. And then it can just, it's quicker, you know, there's a touchdown in a cool run, right? But there might be two of those again. Okay. Sometimes I like to watch a baseball just sail. You know, and I'm like, is someone going to catch it or is just going to kind of bounce around in the stands and someone going to grab it? I don't know. Let's say while we're being super sportsy because I love sports, I do feel bad that you saying like NBA has the best highlights and all that. Right now that the NHL has also been cooking at the same exact time. Like hockey has been just as dope on these nights, but it's just like people don't give a book. I went to a, I mean, there's a few weeks ago now, but I went to a ducks and a hind ducks play off home game. And it was at the pond. I've never been to a play off hockey game and I've been to a few hockey games. It's almost all knucklepogs, and it's awesome. It's constant flying these. Yeah. It's just like, I'm not trying to flex about what I know about hockey and sport sporting. Yeah, sports ball, but it's a lot of knucklepogs. But also the team he is citing is the team from that movie. That's right. Which by the way, it makes me love them so much more. Yeah. I was talking to my buddy who very much doesn't like them and his reason for not liking them is the Disney movie, The Mighty Ducks. That's crazy. See, what the hell? He was like, he was like, dude, they're not a real hockey team. They were based on a Disney kids movie. Yeah. And he's like our age. So I'm like, yeah. Yeah, dude. Yeah, he's named after this kick ass kids movie that we all grew up on. His parents wouldn't buy him the sick hat or an alcoholic coach. Yeah. Yes. Gets busted. You get a D.Y. Yeah, you get a D.Y. Trives a limo out onto the lake and alcoholic lawyer, right? Isn't there a hole? I feel like I just watched it and there's like a pretty big part of the movie is like his what he has to do at work and my trip in or no, no, it's very quickly. He gets a D.Y. He never goes to court. I think you're thinking of Charles Brownson movie. Oh, I am. I'm thinking a deck. Yeah, that's death wish. He keeps being like, and does this work for you ball 85% of the movie 85% of death wish is him building like an apartment complex. It's fucking crazy. How was it not? How did you, how did you, I mean, I don't think I've ever seen death with how, how did you mistake the mighty ducks for death with just is talking way about the job and death wish is more about the job instead of like him, like killing street punks or whatever. Sure. Why are those that I, because I recall, but I just for some reason, both those movies sticking out in my mind as movies where I just remember the dudes had the job. That's why I brought a gun to a mighty ducks game one time. He's like, oh, guys, wrong movie. That's sudden death. Sorry. Oh, dude. You have to watch death wish. No, actually, you don't. Is that what you think? It's called death. What to be? I'm like, why? Sorry. Why the mighty ducks in death wish wouldn't it be like I also was thinking of little giants or another kid sports movie? No. We just explained this because he's talking about how Emilio Estevez's story was way more about like the work back story as opposed to the hockey. And in death wish, there's a lot of the movie dedicated to his job as an architect instead of just killing bad guys when the movie should just be him killing bad guys. And then it's like, back of the office and you're like, why are no one cares about the office? Okay. I see what you're saying. So Adam, my stepdad, my stepdad would say if we watch mighty ducks, we have to watch death wish. As soon as it ends, it's a double feature. That's the only way. It's a double feature. The only way I was allowed to do the amount of double features I watched as a kid. Yeah. The little back to back. Really? Fucking double features. I forgot you broke the shit. The 70s. No, we would, I mean, just it would be like at home. And that's exactly what would happen. Is that a double feature? Just watching more TV? Yeah. Two movies. If you call it, it's a, it's a double feature film. Yeah. If you brand it. Absolutely. We would watch it. Absolutely. That's a Saturday. What are you talking about? That's a Saturday. I can explain it as well. He's talking about when you double feature at home. When you would buy the Ernest goes to camp DVD, it came with Ernest goes to jail. You flip the DVD. Well, what would happen in the DeMine Household is we would watch the first movie with the family. That was a family movie you used one of my mom was excited to watch with my sister and they'd go out and play. And you'd be in your wheelchair and you'd be like, God damn, I got to watch another movie. Then they would go to bed. And then my dad and I would watch whatever demolition man or some R rated action. Yeah. Yeah, dude. That's when we would really settle that's when the wheels came off. Thank you. Go get the popcorn. But have you guys ever been to a double feature, a double feature in the movies? Like a legit, like, hey, I'm going to a double feature. Well, it's legit. You can legit go to a double feature in your basement, just saying, but I understand what you're saying. So I'm just trying to move on from your fantasy of the fact that you've been to a double feature having just watched television at home. Was it was a television? It was a movie. It was a rented movie from Hollywood video. On what? And what did you watch it on? Oh. What did you watch it on? Freaking see on a, a giant monitor. Oh, a monitor? What is that? I've heard you watched it on a television, bitch. Yeah. Okay. And I'm just, I'm wondering, have you ever gone to a double feature at a movie theater? What were double features? These were like movie theaters. You would buy one. I got billing where they'd go, hey, it's two movies starring whoever, or it'd be like two car chase movies back to back, or they'd have two movies that had nothing to do with each other, but they would like. I don't know. I don't even recall that being an option at Brendan Theatre. That's why I jokingly said I forgot Adam grew up in the 70s, because it was kind of okay. They were like, oh, I guess you could just do this at home. It was the thing when Durs was a kid. I saw Mary Poppins and sound of music back to back at the Grindhouse. The music. I did watch Grindhouse, the, the double feature, but that was about it. Oh, yeah. Well, it's the, they've main movies too long. You don't want to watch a two, two and a half hour movies, and then you're there for five hours on the big screen on a TV, for sure. Yeah. You don't fuck. You don't fuck? Let's say Todd, Todd, can we get that sound by chopped out there of Blake saying, I don't fuck. I don't. Fuck. Thank you. Well, that's just not true, but good. Be sure. It's probably not fucking right now, bud. I remember sneaking into a movie and, and having that be a double feature, like being a high school kid, and then you go to one movie, and then again, again, Adam, you're just describing watching things back to back, as opposed to like, when they say, to me, I called it a double feature, but also as someone who worked a little bit, and then I poop a little bit more. Well, that's called the double feature. That's a double dude. You couldn't call that too. As a guy who worked at the movie theater, Adam, that what you were doing is illegal. You, you purchase a ticket for one movie, and you want to watch another movie. You have to exit the theater, purchase that ticket, and go back to, dude, oh, dude, that's that. Just hearing you say that, you were such a bitch in high school, weren't you? Bullshit. Bullshit. And I, and I can show you photos. I had a vest. Adam, I feel like if he had his theater vest on, you would take him more seriously. You would. Yeah. You would respect my authority. See, you would come over with your little afro, and you would say something like that to me. Excuse me. I would be, I would squeeze me to be funny and disarm you. So salty. Squeeze me. Excuse me. What school do you go to? You must be one of those YV kids, dude. YV. YV stands for a year, but what's that saying for? Ignatio Valley. I went to the Bay Area music festival, Bottle Rock, this past weekend. We're in the Bottle Rock. I would do Bottle Rock. You beat any girls up, hung out with your boy George Kittle of the 49ers fame. How's he healing up? Yeah. He's walking all over the place. He seemed good. He's in good spirits. He was in Iowa, Hawkeye. So we have that in common, me being actually from Iowa, and Blake claims it for no reason. He had an aunt that lived there. I mean, I'm, I'm, I'm not born nor raised there. Blinny. Blinny from there. Blinny. Bruce Rundee. Where I'm from. Yeah. It's a big deal. Uh, wrestling. Okay. I hung out with him for a while, it was a fun weekend, dude. But I realized I can't party by the second day, diarrhea, diarrhea. - Oh god. - How hard are we going? ♪ Diarrhea ♪ - From what? - From just drinking too much. - And is it wine? 'Cause it's called like bottle rock, right? So is it just like-- - It is, people are drinking wine, but no, I was drinking tequila. ♪ Diarrhea ♪ - Out of the bottle. It was 12 to 14 hour days, like music festival. - Yeah. - They're all day into the night. - Yeah. - You have to pace yourself. - I would say 10 to 12 hour days. - Yeah. - And it was just a lot, and I never was too drunk. 'Cause you're walking around so much, and it's a musical. - And you had things to do, you didn't-- - I do like Adam, like I was never too drunk. I want to see the footage. I want people's opinion of what you just said. - I wasn't too drunk. Adam Divine was blitz. - This isn't your first time here. Your first time was when you punted the damn lobster roll on the little girl. - Yeah, I didn't punt it. I threw it into the crowd, spiked it, spiked it. - Did you 360 slam like a soft shell crab on an infant this time, or what happened? - There was nothing dastardly. They kind of, I think, paired the food with me, knowing I'm probably gonna throw something out to where it's not gonna be too gross. - New words. - So it was a corn dog covered in caviar. - Ooh. - It was a street taco. - Okay. - It was like a medley. And then it was a-- - Oh, here's the dice. - I'm like waiting for it. (laughs) - Miramoto, he was a, I think, a 15-foot long sushi roll that we all rolled up together, and then we cut up, and then we threw chunks in the audience, and it was fucking delicious. - So he threw shit in the audience. - I did, dude. - I did, and I threw corn dogs in the audience, but it was fine. People were catching it this time. - Oh, so you're saying that the person you hit before just can't catch-- - It was her fault. - No, no, no, that's not-- - No, it didn't make it to her, and-- - That's interesting. - And, yeah, I will say it is a little her fault. I wish you could also get out of the way, you know? - And maybe it was like genetics, like the mom didn't pass down catching genes, so it's almost, maybe her fault. - So here's what happened, quick recap for the people that don't remember. I threw a lobster roll in the audience. That was covered with like a whole giant tin of caviar. And it was like a several pound lobster roll in this huge loaf of bread. - But you see-- - Yeah, I looked up the picture the other day. It's hilarious. (laughing) - It's huge. - It's huge. - It's huge. - It's larger than a football, and they wanted it. - Sure. - The ground wanted it worse. - But it's high up there, and so I climbed down on to a speaker, and I go to throw it, and this guy's like, "Oh, go to it, I'll catch it." But as I threw it, it spun, and it spun, and it dumped and hosed these girls. - Fucking thing! - And I think they got gifted, I think they got three tickets or at least a hooded sweatshirt from the United States. - And the mom came for you. - But she should have caught it. She should have, yeah, the mom did come in my DMs. It got pretty bad. - It's water under the bridge. - It's a lobster roll under the bridge. - You know, I didn't mean for that to happen. But this time, this time-- - Yes. - I think it was all fair game to throw in the crowd. It wasn't anything that was good. - 'Cause they know, they know you are dastardly. - Our people are showing up, like it's a, like it's a guar concert. - Yeah, they got ponchos. - Yeah, and then, and I was with the cool crew. It was Phil Rosenthal from some, everybody feeds Phil or whatever his show was called. - All right. - But everybody loves Raymond. - Oh, created, everybody loves Raymond. - But he has a-- - A food show. - A food show, that's something-- - I don't really watch those types of shows. But, I think it's on Netflix. Somebody feed Phil? - Somebody. - Something like that. Somebody just fucking feed this guy. - By the way, when you create a show and you're so rich that you're like, and now I'm gonna fly around the world and people are gonna fill me eating, and they go-- - Eating, yeah. - We don't really need that. He's like, I'll give it to you for free, and they go, we'll put it on. - Okay. - Somebody feed Phil. - Yeah, that's what it's called. - It's on Netflix. - Okay. - Then, and then it was Uncle Jesse. - Yeah. - From Full House, John Stamos. - That, you guys got to have some quality time. - A real bro down. - We bro-down, yeah, he's a good guy. - Was it a pretty natural fit, you two? Were you guys like-- - Well, we got two drummers. - Yeah, yeah. - And then of course, straight cool. - He was hosted in the whole event. - Oh, we love Trey, Trey's a great dude. - Is it his event? - Yeah, this, he hosted this show. So yeah, this, one of the days was his event. - I was, if it was his fast. I don't know if like, he throws it in his bag. - No, no, no, no, he does, he does. - Oh, and Fred Armasson dressed as a Ramon. - Oh, okay, cool. - Yeah, it was quite the crew. - The man. - Yeah, that's a really cool crew. - And then John Stamos and Trey Cool get on the drums and they're giving a real funky beat. - Oh yeah, yeah. - And I kind of didn't want to just throw food in the audience the whole time. - I'm living in a nightmare. - So the beat, obviously, there could have been some scouts in the audience. - Yeah. - So I knew that I had to like bring my good stuff and I'm dancing, but also I'm hurting because I had been walking around this festival for a long time. But at the end I couldn't help myself and I threw myself into a jazz play. - Please don't stop it. - And it didn't go. - I thought you were gonna say you got on the drums and did your 16 bars or whatever you have, but you did the jazz splits, Adam? - I did the jazz play. - I was answering. - And the crowd roared. - You can't, Isaac has to be with you at all times now. You're gonna die. - It didn't go as great. Usually I could just fall into a jazz play. I got stuck. I went halfway down and just goes, and it didn't go any further. - Oh, you ain't dropping as low as you used to. - No, I couldn't, I couldn't physically. I was so sad I wanted to stretch. - Now what if you worked on your flexibility to make it a thing that you could do for a while? - Yeah, I need to get back on my flexibility shift. - So even when you get really old and you walk slow, secretly you know you've been stretching for it. And so you walk slow and then you just drop down into it and everyone loses their shit. - Well that's where I am now. - Kind of old, walk slow. - Yeah. - Let's work on flexibility. - Feet were killing me. Feet were killing me. - Well, what are you wearing? Are you in vans? What's happening? - No, no, no, no, no. - I wore some Nike's running shoes. - Okay. - This is the way. - Yeah, Nike running shoes. - I should have worn the Nike running shoes. Those are kind of my go-to shoes. - Do they, I think maybe new pal, you need some giant hookas with just the huge bulbus bottom. - Oh yeah. - Get your Brooks on. - I'm not mad at those. - I like the Brooks. - I like Brooks. - Go through an airport. - I need to go into, just the walking company still exists. You guys remember that place? - You have a crickets butt. - Maybe that was one. - Adam and I were like, "Well, I'm not sure what he's talking about." - Maybe that was only in one mall in Costa Mesa. - I kind of know what you're talking about. - And I feel like it was a high-end, like walking shoe, like old man shoe. - Oh yeah, I guess that makes sense. - Well, I need it. Like those sketches, like those slip-on sketches, the commercials, and it's like, - Yes. - Who does those commercials? - How are we long? - How are we long? It's first class for your feet. - Yeah. - Oh, love those. - I'm starting to understand that now, because the way my feet were hurting, and it was just two days, I need to strap into some orthopedic sketches. - Yeah, okay, okay. I mean, I'm down to, like, let's flip the switch. - Let's just rock and breathe. - Yeah, and maybe we start a trend. Who knows, man, what if we really start rockin' stupid orthopedic shoes? - I think it's happened. I think it already happened. - I think it's already-- - Is it? - Well, by the way, the trend is just, we're old now, and that feels good on your feet. - We're not starting a trend. - No, man, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna say, there's like, young, there's young, like, cool rappers who are getting, like, sockony and fucking Brooks, like, collaborations now, like, it's okay. - Well, that's because their feet hurt when they're doing their concerts, and they finally admitted that to themselves. - Yeah, that is cool, man. - They were like, "Yah, yah, yah, yah." - And all the jumping, all the jumping up and down. - School boy, cue. - Yeah, yeah. - I'm Jake Brennan, and on my podcast, Hollywood Land, I revisit some of the biggest stories from Hollywood history, separating the myths people wanna believe from the reality underneath them. Marilyn Monroe has become so iconic that her death can only be explained through conspiracy theories. And for some fans who can't let go, these stories have metastasized from conjecture to accept it fact. So on August 4th, 1962, Marilyn Monroe died. Then the rumors started, and she died again. And now, we're going to set the record straight, and learn about the way Marilyn Monroe actually died. The third way. Learn more about what happens when famed media obsession and conspiracy collide. Listen to Hollywood Land on the I Heart Radio app, a podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. - On big lives, we take a single cultural icon. - People like Jane Fonda, George Michael, Richard Pryor. - And we pull apart the story behind the image. - And we do this by digging through the BBC's Fast Archive. - I'm not just a boxer, I'm educating.

Why did they do it? - I would have given a million reasons to not leave this world had I known. - I keep coming back to a truly hope that Patre was a thousand percent on board with the plan. - Do you think of him as having killed her? - Yes, I do. - I'm Leon Nafok. - And I'm Alice Gregory.

Like these are, the people were 10 and 20 years younger than us. They grew up on Crocs. Like, and now they're putting on Nike's and they're like, I'm sorry, what is this tow box? - Crocs. - And forgive me, that I don't know.

I got this reverse handle that, you know, he isn't as dirty as you'd think, but I am always wearing them. You know what, it's funny. - He's always wearing them. - They never come off. - It's funny, you should say. I got the same damn pair. - They are good. - I wish I had mine close because you guys were laughing and sort of-- - You're not wearing yours. - You guys were laughing and kind of making fun. - No, sir, I don't like it. - I actually wear my reef sandals. - Well, I don't even know, you all do. - That's why we said we wore them in the commercial, dude. - That's why mine are not, I just took mine off my feet. - I'm not buying it. - But you also live a more aquatic lifestyle than me. I'm a very dry guy. - You are a dry guy, you know? - Yeah, it doesn't wrap. - So thong, thongs, or flip flops aren't really necessary for me. 'Cause I'm not around water now. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Crickets, you have a cricket button. - But with that said, I wear that. I wear this shit out of these things, man. - Oh, I get it. ♪ Go down on me ♪ - And you know what? And you know what, it's funny. I'll be honest, I don't wear them that much, but when I go to a party and someone goes, "Oh, where's the bottle of when I go, look down." "On the bottom of my shoe." - And they go, "Jick is out of my dick is out." And then I go, and they go, "Whoa, and I go even further." And then they look and they see, "Maybe you could open it with this." - And exactly. And then they go, "Well, why was your dick out?" And I go, "Well, that's for me, but here you go. This is for you." ♪ Mrs. Oh, ♪ - That's a quote, Adam. Wasn't that drunk? Wasn't that drunk? - There you go, man. - Bro, bro, been there. - Well, no, I was good and drunk at the festival, but - Yeah, I hope so. - And you're buzzing, buddy. - Were you the only one partying? Or were you. - No, no, no. - We were all partying. - Okay, yeah, it was a good, it was a very fun. - I mean, based on everything I've seen about Homeboy at the Long Blonde, Harry Pleasant, the 49ers, his name is. - Oh, "Jortal." - "Kiddle." - He looks like he's having the best time of his life. - Yeah. - He's at like WrestleMania just slamming, putting them back. Every time I see him making an appearance, he's getting it in. - Oh, he has a crazy energy. - He's a good time. - He has a crazy energy. - Oh, my God. - By the way, speaking of not remembering his name right there, today I dropped my kid off at preschool. There's four teachers. I go, at least three days a week, I'm dropping him off. And I say, "Hey, morning all the teachers and the kids." And then I go, "Kill me." - You're a monster. - Teacher rolls up on me and goes, "Hey, we have a quiz." And I go, "Well, I'm gonna fail this." And she goes, "Do you know our names?" - Ooh, that is so fucked up. - Oh, I go. - That is cool. - I pull him from school. - I instantly go, I instantly go. - New school. - I go, "No, no, I don't know your name." I don't know the parents, I don't know these kids. I'm bad with names. And then I go home and I tell Emma. She's like, "What?" It says, "It has same reaction as you." And she goes, "Who said it?" And I was like, "I don't know." - It's science. - There's no way to tell. - We got a line of them up. - Well, then you described her. You broke it down. - I giant, supple brats huge, floppy dog. - Who, what, the curvy? I call, in my mind, I call her Lady Curbs. - No, I just was like, "Emma, I don't know." That's the whole thing. - Dang, that is fucking crazy. Why did they do that to you? - But I'm so bad with names. - So am I. I'm terrible. - I just, I know nothing. - We just talked about George Kiddell and I'm like, "Get kind of meant to put that?" - Yeah, this guy that lives directly, I just took my kid to the park and I just was on the way home. And this guy introduced himself to me, said his name, you said, "I shook his hand." He's like, "I live right across the street. Our kids are the exact same age, like born within weeks of each other." He's like, "We should get these kids together." I'm like, "Dude, that's a fucking awesome idea." And he's like, "Yeah, right on." - He's like, "Wow, cool, daddy's where." - Then he said his name and I'm like, "Oh, yeah." - Oh, I thought he would be like, "Put my name in your phone." - He was like, "No." - No, but then we walk home. - What's the spelling of it? - My dad goes, "How, so are you gonna hang out that guy?" And I'm like, "Oh, yeah, we should get those kids together." And he's like, "What was his name?" No recollection. - Crickets? - Crickets. - Oh, right. - Zero recollection of that guy. - Don Trellis? - Tyler, maybe, I don't know. Could be. - What was the name we came up with on? - Don, Tyler. Wait, did you meet Don, Oliver? - So, the rapper? - What was the name we came up with on the work of all these episodes where we were like, "We just improvise every time." - Heisen Rip Bower. - Jake Heisen Rip Bower. - Yeah, yeah. - Yes, Paul. - I can't remember names. - Yes, I got that. - Wow, I can't remember. - I remember fictional names. - But we did a different one every time and I think we settled on Jake Heisen Rip Bower. - I also do not remember names at all. And I know this about myself and all it would really take is me actually listening to people at that point in the conversation, arguably the most important part, just the very beginning when you're meeting them. But I just, I don't know where my head is at that point. Like, I'm trying to remember my name or some shit. - You're probably trying to think of something clever to say, "Next." - Yeah, I'm like, "You're kind of gearing up." - Wait, you're improvving Zybzapzapin, but you're not listening. - No, you gotta listen. - I'm watching them, not remember my name. - That's what it is. - I say my name and I go, I was onters and I watch them go. - And it is already gone. It is already a scheme not gonna lie. - I didn't even hear it. - That's not a real name. - You're honored? - Yeah. - That's fake though. - What a blessing to meet you as well, sir. - The honors. - Yeah, how badly do people fuck up your name onters? Do we? Because there's a world where people have never heard the name Anders. Do you have an hour? Well, yeah, and you go by Anders. It's not an American name. That's for day I'm sure and I know it bothers me when people get your name wrong. When people say Anders, it bothers me. It pisses me the fuck off. You don't even like that you're saying it right now. And it shouldn't. It shouldn't because it's your name. But I, you know, I love you, dude. And the fact that you have to deal with that every day of your life. I'm sorry about that. Yeah. Thanks. You know what though? I'm going to Stockholm Sweden in a few weeks. Oh, boy. Oh my god. The tables are going to turn. If anyone is named fucking David or Zach there, I'm beating them up. And when the Swedish people ask me, I'm going to go, well, their names are just like regular. They'll go, oh, okay, cool. Let's do this. What is a Swedish accent? Oh, okay. It's just American. They just speak very good English. Like super pertinent. No, don't do that. Yeah. They have a melodic up and down kind of like. Is that true or is it just that? Is it just that? The sweetest chef for every gurney. It's like, well, I mean, don't explain it. Give us a little taste. I don't know how to do it. The Swedish shift. You know how to do it a little bit. Well, I think Blake's covering it pretty good. I just gave it to you. It's like it they kind of talk like Swedish chef, like up and down like that. A little bit. Yeah, but I think I think just the method that is true, like in the 70s, I do think in 2026. For example, and nor don't speak like I'm just telling you, dude, it is crazy. We went to Norway two years ago and I'm at the tourist place like waiting to get this pamphlet to go see a fjord. And I'm like two people back from the woman who's like helping everybody. And she's like, yeah, and if you want to go here, this is like super cool. And I go, oh, this is fucking cool. Like they got like an American who must like have Norwegian grandparents who like comes back here to like work here for the summer. What a cool gig. I get to the front line. She helps us and she's like, oh, you got three little kids. They're going to flip out when they see this. They're going to do this and that's going to be really fun. It's super helpful. I go, and I'm like, thanks for all your help. Where are you from? And she's like, man, she don't get her. And I was like, you're not American. And she goes, no, don't get. She goes, ooh, her English was so good. I was like, she's from Minnesota. She's fucking like, that's impressive. Well, she works at the tourist center. So she's practicing her American. When you, she's like doing a character. It's like when I would call, you know, I call like doing a character. South. And suddenly I would talk like this when I would do that's still a native language. No, that's just the accent. She's speaking in not learned English by watching American. And that's what I'm saying. In 2026. It's like, liquid is and they got it locked. And by the way, this was my excuse when I did a episode of Brooklyn 99. And they're like, can you do a Swedish accent? I was like, you know, they don't even have an accent anymore. Yeah, that sounds like a crap attitude. Because I mean, you meet someone from fucking Ireland or something. They still sound Irish as fuck. Oh, yeah, you know, Adam. Yeah, they're speaking English. Don't get. So why would they change their accent? Yes, but they sound Irish. Okay, so okay, how about a Mexican? How about a Mexican? Yeah, they didn't grow up speaking English. Right. And then they come here and English isn't their first language. That's right. They don't sound. They sound like they're from Mexico. And they learned English. That's right. And in Scandinavia, the English is so good. It's such a priority in the schools and in the culture. And they watch it on TV that like it's dialed in. I just thought she was from the States. That's how good her English was. It didn't even have an accent. I understand what you're saying. I'm not buying. I don't think it's a priority in other places like it is there. I'm ready for you to go on this vacation and come back and say, tale between your legs and say, I'm wrong. They have an accent. They have a crazy accent. I'm sure outside of metropolitan areas, they got the accent. Yes, you outside of the tourist center that you were at to get the fjord pamphlet. Everyone but that one woman has an accent. You can't understand the language. Yeah, that makes sense. Okay, well, that'll be exciting. Why we're going there because Emma's competing your wife is something else. What a jock. She's out of her mind. But I can't remember. I brought it up. I brought it up because fucking my name. My name. We're going to go there. And it's going to be all over the place. I mean, it's so can we can we talk a little bit about her athletic accomplishments? She'll hate it and say, what'd you do? And I'll go, we ran out of shit to talk about. Do you want a fucking new roof? Yeah, you talked for like five minutes about her athletic accomplishments because she is such a jock. Yeah, it's truly incredible. And I'll circle back to something. But this is the frustrating part is that like she's faster than she's ever been in her life. And she's always been fast. And now I as my body starts to eat itself from the inside out nose dive. Yeah, she's just absolutely faster stronger. Like I don't know what's going on. Although I will say Monday or two yesterday. I did. I did. I did. I did. Murphy. Do you guys know what Murph is? So Murph is a real memorial day CrossFit thing named after a fall soldier. I'll fall. Yeah, I don't know. But yes, I know that people and I did it. And I'm fucking dying today. I'm so sorry. What did you? What did you have to do? So usually you're supposed to do this with like a 20 pound or a 30 pound vest. I did it with no vest. You did it with them. Titi Michael Murphy, who's killed in Afghanistan in 2005. Yeah, God. I did it at 200 pounds. So fuck off everyone. I'm too. I'm already too heavy on my boy. Freaking see you run a mile. You do a hundred pull ups. You do 200 push ups. You do 300 air squats. You run a mile for time. Your boobs are huge to me. The, I mean, the hard part would be all of it for me. Right. Yeah. So your feet hurt after walking around for four hours in really nice Nike's for me. The whole thing. I would really suck. If I've got these Nike's and they were where like they you have to wear a vest, right? I didn't wear like a I wore no vest. I as Blake said, I have the titties. Your boobs are huge. I mean, what'd you say 30 pound or 40 pound vest? It's either a 20 or a 30 pound vest. It says 20 pound vest for men and 14 pound vest for women. That's something I've actually never done. I've never done any sort of running or working out with a weighted vest on. I have a vest and I knew better. I mean, it took me an hour. Yeah, it was. Well, the hundred pull ups is that's the hardest thing. That's going to take me a while. Yeah, that's the hardest. My fucking arms are suit my my biceps and my thighs are fucking killing me. My chest is not that bad because 200 push ups. If you do them like Blake, yeah, don't go all the way down. The little quarter. I will say you're allowed to do what they call it. Kipping pull ups. I did strict pull ups just for the record. Kipping or where you can like. I'm going to say biceps are killing me. I'm going to do that's all he's saying, but why if you're allowed to do the kipping, why why not just to keep away? Because you have done crossfit and you you have kept. I know how to do them, but I did feel like if I'm not doing the vest, I should do strict pull ups. And I broke it up into fives. It took forever. And then I broke the push ups into tens and I broke the air squats. 25 all I all I want to be able to do is be physically able to do this, but I just there's no getting around it anymore. I can't even do the splits. My body is failing me by only did it out of respect for fallen soldiers on Memorial Day. And also to go in the house and go just did my. So you just did this in your backyard in my garage or my garage. Oh wow, where I have all the I mean, I have a pull up bar and how long did the whole thing take hour and a minute hour and hour. Sorry, I dropped out my bad. We couldn't care less. You didn't even know this at all. The pull ups, you have to get to 100. So do you just stand at the bar? Yeah, I'm going to jump you jump back up. Well, can you skip them? Can you skip around? Can you do like, yeah, there are some bits. That's what I'm saying pull ups and then and then 20 push ups. Yes, they're they if you if you don't that is another way to like do a variation of it. But I to me that you just did all the way. That's a little that's a different thing to me. That's a little bitch made. I told you do you're not doing it. How God intended. I did it without a vest, which is already a little bitch made. But I again, I have the bitch titties. And so a lot of people I just was like the other way is you're really spreading it right then and easy. Yeah, maybe I go spread it then the one mile. That's where I draw the line. Just trot it. The second one after the the air squats on the treadmill. And I was like like just really trotting it where you just quivering brutal. God damn. Yeah, yeah, I was like speed not speed walking because that conjures a different I was like truly like zombie shuffling for the first quarter mile. Well, that's awesome. That's awesome. You you still are giving it your all onters with especially with the failing body. You know what it hurts. with me is besides everything, my joints, my joints are now so much we got to join the enhanced games now. I watched the entire thing. Yes, I got pretty offended. My dad was like, my dad was like, I don't like it. And I'm like, what don't you like about it? And he's like, well, they're it's cheating. I'm like, they're only competing against other people that are also doing steroids, so it's not cheating. And they're competing against a couple guys who signed up without it. They were like, I'll show up there clean and beat you guys, but go ahead and clean. That's tough. Yeah. And I'm like, so it's like, everybody knows no one's lying. Well, no one's not saying they're doing steroids. And then I convinced my dad that the enhanced games rock, actually, and he's like, really cool. Did you tell your dad, they're kind of sick. You know what you do? You lean and you go, Dad, let me remind you, you got enhanced lungs right now. Yeah. But I don't like your life. What are those called pet tides? Yeah. I hear there's pet tides that really help with your joints. I'm like, I don't do I do the pet tides. Let's do it. Have to do them. Let's do it. I want to get on. I feel like we've covered this. We got to get on the Wolverine stack. Are you familiar with what's the Wolverine stack? Because I'm in whatever it is we're in. It's like it's like too. Well, Blake, I thought you said you weren't he's on. No, no, he's a follower. He's a total fall when push comes to shove. You're not in. It wasn't branded as Wolverine. I'm in now. It just takes some good brand. No, you said you were in before we said Wolverine. Okay. No, he said Wolverine. I said, I'm in when push comes to shove, you're going to bitch out. You're going to bitch out. No, no, no, I'll do the Wolverine stack. Let's do it, bro. The Wolverine stack. A stack is what they call it when it's more than one pet tides together, right? It's not a cocktail to stack. That's tough. The Wolverine stack is two different ones that like make your body heal extra fast. Hens Wolverine. And if you heal, you can rip more muscle, get shredded faster. I got to get on this GLP three when it drops. The red it to red it's true tide or whatever do it. What is going to happen? That's the new one. And there's a GLP. GLP one is the fat drugs. So what is two and then what is three? We're on three now. Three is like 10 times as strong as GLP one. And they're like in trials now. You can buy it on the internet. What? I'm not recommending anyone do this out there, but you could. But you could. And apparently it's just every benefit you could ever imagine. Well, let's get a doctor. Let's get a doctor. I'm serious. Let's get a doctor. Let's do enhance the enhanced podcast. Let's get a doctor. Yeah. Because we don't have one. No, I mean a doctor just for this guy, a guy, a guy, a guy who this is what he does. Bro's arc. And then doctor bro's arc. We get him. We get dialed in. And mean you will get fucking these muscles. By the way, get absolutely shredded for summer. I don't even want the muscles. I think I have them somewhere under here. Yeah. Yeah. I also have muscles underneath under the layers under the squish under the flop. Some some. That's what Ray J that's what Ray J's that and look at him. Okay. And it comes full circle. And I was saying this the other day to Emma when I say this out loud to her, just to like plant the seed. So when I finally do it, she goes, oh, yeah, the thing he's been talking about for two years. When you know you watch a movie from the 70s, and you everyone's teeth are like gnarles, barkly, right? Yeah. Like they're brown. They're twisted. And then you like, yeah, you're like, Meryl Streep's teeth are perfect now. And you go, okay, whatever. Mine too. We're going to in 10 years or 20 years, people are going to watch movies from like 10 years ago and go, can you believe there's fat people? Because there's not going to be any more fat people. Yeah. God, everyone is fat and ugly. They're going to be gone. Being fat is going to be a choice. Yeah. And it's you, yeah, you just go like, actually, I don't give a shit. And I'm just going to eat sausages. And because I think if you're on the, the weight drugs, the GOP ones, you can't eat sausages. Yeah. Yeah. You'll be like sick. It's too fatty. Exactly. It makes your pie go yucky. That does suck. Oh, yeah. That's a huge hit. I don't know if I'm in anymore. I don't know if I'm in. I mean, too. As long as I feel like there are some companies they say now that won't ensure it, like they used to, because it makes your productivity go down because you don't have the mechanism that makes you like work for the satisfaction of producing something or doing something. And Adam just died. Adam's lights went out. Yeah. My light went out. My, I blew a breaker in my office. Yeah, my internet sucks. Adam's lights are going out. Okay. Hey, we got it. We got to call it.
