Ep 306: The Guys Mostly Talk About Chips

In this episode of "This Is Important," the hosts engage in a freewheeling, humorous conversation covering a range of topics. They start by reviewing the new Doritos "Late Night" hot honey pizza chips, with Blake giving them a 7.5/10, while Adam explains he avoids chips entirely to maintain his physique, leading to jokes about his body and a photo of Blake on a celebrity underwear website. The discussion then pivots to Blake's family story about a tadpole his kids raised into a frog that escaped and died, prompting reflections on how to handle death with children. The hosts also share travel experiences, with Blake recounting trips to Sweden and Copenhagen for his wife's world championship, noting the tall locals, globalized brands, and a soccer World Cup match. Movie reviews include the "28 Years Later" films, "Marty Supreme," and "Train Dreams," with Blake critiquing the annoying protagonist in the latter. They also rant about athletes' post-game interviews becoming too profane and the lack of humor among sports dads, contrasting it with their own playful banter. The episode wraps with stories about Lego Land Denmark, a camp tradition of playing "Beethoven" movies, and a mishap where a friend wore Adidas to Nike headquarters. Throughout, the hosts maintain their signature comedic, irreverent tone, blending personal anecdotes with pop culture commentary.

Welcome to This Is Important, a production of iHeart Radio, the show where we talk about what's obviously most critically, crucially important. Today on This Is Important, why are you living? You're not even living if you can't eat chips. Would you like any Dorito late nights? Now if I look at this, am I gonna fall in love? I just wanna be careful. Oh god, oh god, good to be here, good to be back baby, long time no see, miss my guys. It's been a few weeks, we stacked a few episodes, you probably noticed because we weren't as hot, hot, topical as we normally are. We were like, huh, I wonder if the nicks are gonna win in this series, was over, right? Yeah, I was like, hey, I hope not, those nigg fans are annoying. And then they win, then they won, and then my god, did they slide in my DM, so I bet you heard it. And I sent them all over to Blake's DMs, because he reads them, so I was like, yes, I heard Blake's, yeah, I do, and shout out to everybody sending me their, they're hate for me. No, the pin, pin, what's the disease, the, what, oh, did you get, you know what I'm, Peronis, and Peyronis, shout out to my Peyronis DMs, we're gonna figure that out, fellas, we're gonna figure that out together. Wait, did you get some, oh, baby, no, I got requests, thank god that they don't actually, you got requests. I don't, you know how like if people DM you, I'm a little lost as to what we're talking about. Peyronis, that bent, the bent penis with the signature bump in an episode, we told people to send Blake, new, essentially dick pics of Peyronis with the signature bump, the signature bump. And I was gonna diagnose it, but you know, in the DMs, people can't send you photos until you like accept them. So I wasn't, I wasn't accepting, but they're like, dude, I got, but you, but you got some. I got some requests. Well, get your fucking phone out right now, live on air, you don't have to show the picture, but if this is, have you guys ever watched reaction videos, remember those? Let's do this. Yeah, this is the stuff that I want to see. It would take me a while because I have so many DMs coming in about so many topics from the pod. All right. Well, then fuck it. Talk about your life for a little bit. I would love to. What do you guys want to know about, man? And just start talking, Blake, this is your pod, we want, just start talking. It's your life. It's your life. Okay. You guys want me to, you want me to kick it off? Yeah. I would love for you to finally kick it off, dude. Okay. In a natural way where you ask, because you know what usually happens? I usually kick it off. You do? Yeah. Adam can't shut the fuck up. Yeah. You railroad. Then Ders will, we'll, we'll, we'll pick it up and then, and then you kind of fall asleep at the wheel over there. We need you to. I've got so many topics I'd love to cover today. So as soon as guys would just give me the floor and, and I'm looking and I'm scrambling. And the first thing I see, of course, given newspaper, I thought it was like, you think I had a newspaper? Okay. Go ahead. Go off. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm holding up the newest Doritos flavor. It's a late night, which I don't know if you guys are aware of the late night flavor selections. They're usually, they, they usually take a bold swing. I've got, I've got hot honey pizza. Now, is this a commercial at all or it is not? Are you getting paid for this? I am not being paid by Doritos. Adam, ironically, that would be off brand, he ain't getting cash. Yeah. I want to ride. So we're just sort of hyping up this Doritos flavor late night. Well, I was, I was intrigued. Okay. You know, I'm a guy when I, I do the grocery shopping for the family. So I'm in these aisles and when I see a new chip flavor, daddy's got it by it. I will say, yeah, do you go every aisle? I go every aisle, baby, I gotta see what's happening. I go every aisle. I have to. Yeah. I have to. I have to. I gotta look at the picture. I get that. Well, I don't, I very rarely do any amount of grocery shopping, but when you do, you gotta go every aisle. Every aisle. Because you don't know what's out there. But you say you do it, you do it every week, Blake. Yes. So you know what's in that grocery store. So why do you then go every aisle? No, no, Adam. Stop. That's a good question. That's your own philosophy. Come on. They stocked these shelves, brother. We're in America. Okay. They are creating new products every week. You gotta, you gotta go down every aisle. And paying for that shelf life or not shelf life, that shelf space. Come on. All right. That ain't cheap. So the hot new flavor is none other than hot, honey pizza. Okay. So I wish Anders would have started. Yeah. Yeah. How is it? Are they? Do they taste good? How do they rank? Has the king been to throne? Where are you guys with chip flavors? Because some of them are. Adam, where are you? Where are you? I don't. I don't eat chips. You don't eat chips? No. I'm pissed now. What sucks about me and my body is I treated it like a temple and it looks like a garbage game. So I treated it so well. I don't eat chips. I don't eat candy, I don't drink like sugary sodas. Adam's body. It's a temple. But also it's like when you see a sand castle after like the tide comes in. Yeah. It's the temple of doom. Yes, points. Yeah. That's where you add them. Temple of doom. If we got you. Temple of doom. That's why I said it like four times. I was hoping you would give me points. That was the temple of doom, temple of doom. Double point. I don't know how the jokes work over other people. Yeah. So I don't really, I don't, I'm not all right. Body of chips. Well Blake, you have this metabolism that is able to eat chips and you're, and you still can fit into clothing. I eat 11 chips and I no longer can fit in clothes. But I'm hearing this word allowed. I'm hearing this word allowed Adam. I don't like it. Yeah. Why aren't you allowed? Do you mean you shouldn't or you can't? Well, no, if, if I do, I just explained if I do, I no longer can fit in clothes and that's not an exaggeration. That's not an exaggeration, you can fit in clothes, it's just my knowledge of your clothes. Not my clothes. Not my closet isn't an exaggeration, you can still fit in the clothes. Yeah. Okay. Triple exels out there. Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure. But I'm not going to go by. I'm not going to go by. If you're listening, send Adam some elastic wasted pants, please. I'm not going to go by new clothes to then so I can eat chips. Hey, Zubas, if you're listening, please send Adam some exiles. See, that's where your mouth is fucked up. You need to eat chips, therefore you need to buy new clothes because why are you living? Chips are the most exciting part of my day. I've heard that. I've heard that. You know what I eat chips? On the 4th of July. I'll have some chips. I'll treat myself to some chips. Okay. The best holiday it's coming up right around the corner. Okay. On a big fun holiday on a kids' birthday, I might have some chips. For what are you reaching for, bud, is it the late night Doritos hot honey peeps? Here we are. I do like Doritos. I love Doritos. I love Doritos. I love the honey's throwing me. I'll say that. You know what? But it makes it slightly addicted. because you know I got a sweet tooth so that that sweet just keeps bringing me back to the next chip. Hot honey is having a moment right now. It really is, that's the new, that's the new wave. Hot honey is the fucking shit. It goes through waves. How does this happen? I feel like we're old enough now to have seen all these waves. Like, I guess I just remember when Brussels sprouts. That was the first wave I recognized for. I was like, you're like, Jesus. Brussels sprouts are everywhere. I guess they're sprouting up everywhere. And then, and then avocado, avocados, went through the roof. The amount of people love. Those are naming like actual vegetables. I think you need to name things that are like created. Like the real example, which I think is a hot honey is something that is manufactured. Yes, but what I'm talking about is the way that Brussels sprouts were prepared with like bits of bacon and like balsamic all over them. And a little char became what it was. It wasn't just like steam, Brussels sprouts were hidden and everyone was going crazy. Avocado, avocado toast had a moment. Yep, they put it on some toast. Honey hot. I'm saying like red velvet, red velvet. Remember the red velvet is a great one. Yeah, red velvet. Oh yeah, red velvet cupcake. I can't even look at it anymore. It was like, where did it? It's not exciting anymore. We got so red velvet did that were we're out of the red velvet. You're absolutely right. And now we're in the hot honey wave and it's going to be everywhere. Is that is that our restaurant hot honey and red velvet? All those things. No, just called the what you just called the wave. And it's everything that has had a moment. And then you go back in and you're like, okay, because you go in and you know, you might not able, you might not be able to find your red velvet. They're like, people are off that. Yeah, you go into this restaurant, you have your avocado toast. Okay. You have your Brussels sprouts with bacon and then you fucking slam a slab of red velvet. Right. Kale. Kale's up in there. Put a little hot honey on it. Oh, baby. Oh, baby. Oh, mommy burger. Yeah. So everything that is off that. Yeah. Yeah. I'm in, dude. I'm in. Who will you trust? Your friends and neighbors? Who will you trust the people five miles overseas? This is a story about neighbors turning on each other. And what happens when a forgotten place decides it's had enough. We reached for a feeling that exists in this city, but we're not stopping early. I'm Ben, that of half-rate. And for my new series on revisionist history, I took a deep dive in the Staten Island's attempt to secede from New York City in the 1990s. And what it all has to do with the politics of resentment that dominate America today. And so these are good. The hot honey pizzas? Yeah. I will give it a, I'll give it a seven and a half out of ten. Seven and a half out of ten. No, and Adam, no chips. Yeah, that's crazy, dude. What do we, we're just eating the chickens? Yeah. Eaters. The nut. Broccoli. I, yes. Eat the lot of nut. I eat nuts. I eat. Can we clip that? Broccoli. I eat eggs. I eat tomatoes. You look good. You look good. You do look good. I, I don't know. I, I, you look good. And what sucks? It's a goddamn fist fight. Every day. Yeah. It is a fucking battle. Do you have food? Do you have food noise? The noise is so fucking loud. Oh, okay. I thought you were saying like clothe is like grabbing your wrist and keep preventing you from putting the food into your mouth. She doesn't care. No, dude. She would, she would have, she wants me to be so fat. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're a monster. Dude, she, let's see if Todd can find it. It's from the, the movie, The Final Girls. Move, move, move. Great, move. Where I'm going to have sex with the character that Molly and Alkerman played. And I come in and I have like the, my pants are like down on my knees and I'm in like to tidy little like purple, like white, like, tidy whiteies, but they're purple. By the way, and like my little bellies hanging over the side and my dick looks so small, dude. My dick looks incredibly tiny, but it's not, you know what it is? That's when Chloe fell in love with me. So she saw that body and was like, I'm in, I'm in. That's awesome. She's like, I'm gonna have to watch these dailies. So she wants me to get back to there, but I don't want to. So you have some wiggle room. You can, you can put on some pounds and you, you've got some, you've got some wiggle room. Hey, like, we only see each other in person every like four months. You know that I use that wiggle room. Right. Where boobs are huge. Every four months you see me and your, my, my, my chin will go, speaking in waves, it comes to go. Yeah. Yeah. But that's, it feel like that's what's kind of fun about us is you don't see each other for a little while and then it's going on there, dude, what are we doing in here? And I go. Like, holy shit, I bet, I bet that guy can't fit in clothes. Sometimes you look really good. Sometimes I'm like, okay, I'm on top in this relationship, but isn't it fun when you, when you run into each other and you do look good and you go, look at my guy. Look at us. Look at us. Like, sometimes you see us and you think I'm on top and that sometimes you think I could fuck, I'm the one fucking you heard him. Right. You heard how? I don't mean top as in like pride top. I mean, just like I'm on top. I'm on top of the, is it still pride? And when this comes out, no, but it is, it, it's always pride in my neighbor, that's straight pride. So for you, it's about looking better than other people. For me, it's about myself, no, not other people just you guys. It's just me. Yeah. Yeah. It's us. Yeah. It's us versus each other, brother. Yeah. You've been doing well. I mean, not for me, but yeah, you're doing, I think you've been at the top. Yeah. I bet you're on top. It's like a battle. Yeah. Oh, man. Durson, I have to try and like watch what we eat sometimes. You don't have to do that. Well, I just can't, well, your, your issue is you don't eat. And then you eat 11 hot, honey chips and call that a meal, call that a full days worth of food. And Adam, the question is, where does it go? Ah, where does it go? Where does it go? It's starting to go up in the top style. I'm starting to get a little messy. Yeah. I got moth. Isn't that nice? How do we get rid of the moth? How do you, I think you got to do like side side bends. Side bends are set up. Oh, no. And please don't lose that moth. Yeah. I think that's it. Todd, we got that photo. We got that photo, bud. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I let it off with my topic. It was very fruitful. Okay. Hey, it's in the chat. Let's, please, please take a look at my body in the chat. And this is what Chloe fell in no point. Stop the music. It's right there. And look at it. Now, if I look at this, am I going to fall in love? I just want to be careful. Um, what website is this? Tombex. I don't know. Celebrity Undy Drawer. Undy Drawer? Yeah. Undy Drawer. The place where all your updates on male celebrities and they're underway. And they're Undy's. Hey, well, I made it. You know what? Adam, Adam, Adam. Yeah. I feel like you would love to have this body right now. Oh, my, my body's better, much better than this right now. I don't know what you're talking about. Really? That looks good to me. I also clicked the photo and it went to the hardcore porn. No, no, no, no, I'm, I'm, I'm a solid 10 pounds lighter and also stronger. This looks, you look good. This looks good. I don't know. Okay. Well, thanks, guys. Thank you. Thank you for saying that. I think you might be chester. You're now like, you might have more like arm and shoulders, but let's just say I'm keep. This is my new background here now. Are you guys seeing the ad at the, uh, keep scrolling down? Oh, my God. Oh, yes. I clicked out. You see what I'm saying? Adam, you gotta go back. I'm trying to purple brace from the final girls, not safe for work. You gotta go back. All right. Teres, are you getting the target at that? I'm getting older men wanted. I see like a Liam Payne for Hugo Boss, just shredded and right above that, it's top rated cocksuckers nearby and this girl's just doming a di who sent this link, Todd. And then below that, it's like, dude, it's basically just like celebrity. This is a gay. Ron, a gay. This is a gay. Okay. Yeah. This is a gay. All right. We're on. And by the way, everyone, everyone's really shredded and I'm, I'm doing the least amount of. You know, I'm just happy to be there. Thank you. Thank you, guys. There's a lane for you, bro. Thank you, guys. There's a lane for you, brother. I think the gays, they see me and they go, we're, we're rooting for them. You know, we want them to do well. You would hope so. Okay. Yeah. I think so. Okay, good. I hope so too. I'm a dude. I'm a dude. Having Doritos, that just doesn't seem like a, if I'm eating chips, it's almost always a kettle cooked type chip at this point. You're a big potato guy. You don't fuck with the corn chips. I mean, I'll do chips and salsa. I'll do chips and salsa, preferably at a restaurant. I don't know, Doritos, look, love 'em. They're not what I'm grabbing, though. I don't feel like. - You know who turned me off of chips, I think, was living with new a check. When we lived with new a check, this is 15 plus years ago now. More than that, I. - Water trash. - He would eat so many bags of chips, and then leave the, and then there's like little dust marks, and he'd like close the door, and there'd be like finger marks of like. - Oh, dude. - His hats? - The brim of his hats? I'd be like, "Yo, you had so-and-so for lunch?" - All the brim of his hats were just covered in like, "Friedo dust." - You could tell what he had. - What chippy had for dinner by the finger print? - Dude, you're like, "Oh, you have a little cool branch." - Oh, damn, bro. - That's sour cream and onion, huh? - We're eating a little Maui onion, huh? - Oh, you splurged. You splurged. - You went Maui onion. - Okay. - Got that purple bag. - Maui onion's little extra. - What was that brand? - Yeah, it's a purple bag with the hula chicks. - I thought it was Maui. - I mean, that's just what it is, it's not the flavor. - We're a Hawaiian chip company. - I think so, yeah, that's my wife's favorite. That's Chloe's favorite go-to. - Oh, it's so good. - She's all chip. - You know what I'm saying. - She's built like Blake. - Okay, well, for Blake, I have the exact same body. - In order to try the late night Doritos, I also had a really good potato chip. Um, just let it hang there, Doritos. - The Grazza, I had a Grazza Caesar flavored chip. Very good. And I was like-- - I'm explaining all the words you just said. - Grazza is an olive oil company. And they started making chips while I was walking the aisles to target. - Yes. - I saw that they had some chips and they had a zesty Caesar flavor. - You do a lot of shopping. I like this. I feel like I've never-- - I can't do it. I've never shopped it, I've never been there. - No, I loved it. - I love it. - Where you at? - Blazer, where do you go? - What do you mean? - Target, Ralph's, Ralph's. - Thank you. - Okay. - Yeah. - You do grocery shopping at Target? - I got the chips. I got one bag of chips there. - Isn't it just like all ocean spray fucking cranberry juice? That's it. - Well, that's the thing. Target carries some shit that Ralph's doesn't. Like some, some like in the cut stuff. So you got to really, you got to really walk it. - I've always felt that way about Target. You got to go to Target for the deep cut. - For the deep cut. - In the cut type stuff. - Yeah. - So you just can't get-- - You can't find anywhere else. - It's a real mom and pop, dude. - That's pretty cool, dude. - It's pretty cool. But that's, I was like, when I saw this Zesty Caesar flavor, I'm like, how come no one has ever made a Caesar flavor? It's very, very delicious. - And this is like, it tastes like the Caesar salad dressing? - It tastes like Caesar salad. Yeah, it's delicious. - I don't know if that, to me, that makes my mouth sour. To me, that makes my breath and everyone's breath so rancidoudy. - Oh, the breath is bad. - Even having a Caesar salad at lunch. - Oh yeah, that's a game changer. - That's a dangerous move, dude. If you have anything to do right after that, you don't have any diet codes. You got to slurp down just to get that sauce that coated your throat. - Yeah, you got to really scrub your teeth with diet coke. - Oh, my kid had a Caesar salad the other day and he bites into a crouton and he's like, oh, this bread is stale. And I was like, yeah, you're not gonna believe this. - I don't give a fuck! - That's on purpose. And he was like, what? I go, croutons are old bread from yesterday that they just chop up and put on these salads and they're purposely stale. - Damn, dude. Yeah, who invented, who was the sick fuck who invented that? - Genius. - Well, wait, we don't like croutons. We like chips, but croutons on a salad is like a no-go for you guys. - What? - I'm it. - Well, I don't know. Blake just said, who's the sick fuck that invented that? - Look at their stale as opposed to just like fresh bread. - Well, it's just a weird idea. They're like, hey, we got all this bread that's fucking stale as fuck tooth-breakingly. So, what if we roll it around and some garlic powder and parsley or whatever the hell makes up a crouton? - And then they did that and it was delicious. So I wouldn't call them a sick fuck. I'd call them a fucking genius. - Well, they're a sick fuck, fucking genius is what they are. - Well, there are, I mean, I think the sick fuck, the first person to see like a bird fucking lay an egg and then go, I'm going to eat that. - Right, right, right. - That's a sick fuck. Whoever was the first guy that was like, - I think that was just a cave man. - I think that cavemen were like, I'm hungry. And you have instincts that tell you something's in there. - I'm always curious about that. - You know what I think? I wonder if it was we were watching other animals and we're like, huh, like snakes are eating eggs and birds are eating eggs, maybe I should eat that. - Yeah, of course. - Yeah. - Oh, okay. (dramatic music) - 30 years ago, an island off Manhattan almost brought down New York City. - Who will you trust? - This is a story about neighbors turning on each other and what happens when a forgotten place decides it's had enough. - We reached for a feeling that exists in this city but we're not stopping, are we?

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 very long text. - 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 in a dead and job that I didn't enjoy. - And 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 Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. - Dude, we got a frog the other day. We went to this, our friends have like a ranch. We went there, we went in this creek and my kids pulled out a tadpole. And so we walked this tadpole, grow into a frog, it was pretty sick. In like a little shoebox-sized terrarium. And it fucking turned a new frog. And then it was like, on the wall, and we were like, "Whoa, this is crazy." And then one day it just wasn't there. - Oh my God! - And we were like, "Could it have gotten out of these little air slits?" Like this is crazy. The next morning, one of your sons, let it go. - We're in the bathroom down the hall where there is a shower. Where my kids like to shower, downstairs, for whatever reason. And there's this little like, turn of something on the floor. And Emma's like, "Oh my God, is that toady?" And like, I pick it up and it's this thing that if you look closely enough, it's got arms and it's got legs and it's definitely toady, but it fully dried out from like not being in water. But yeah, went from our kitchen down the hall to the bathroom. So like it knew the moisture like it had the senses to like tell it to go there for wetness but it just couldn't get into the toilet into a shower where fully, fully dead, like dried out like. Oh, dude, like fully momified, didn't taste weird. Do you tell your kids this or you just flush them and say, I don't know. Yeah. No, no, no, no, this is a huge moment. He rubbed it. He rubbed it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I say this is what happens. No, you go, no, look, we found him. He needs water. He died. All right. Yeah. So you do tell him, I don't know, I feel like a lot of parents would just be like, I don't know what happened to toady anyway. Yeah. Anyway. No, man, you got to make him into like, where's the romance or something? That would be kind of sick. Yeah. Summer, I'm somewhere between you guys. I, addly handed, I think. I can't fucking disaster my guy. I obviously thought about doing the necklace thing. I obviously thought about just moving on and I decided to acknowledge it and skip the whole decorative, whole jewelry tech, jewelry, red, yeah, yeah, poke it through both its eyes and tie it in the back and then you got, but you have him for life too. Can I wear it to school? You have to actually. Yeah. You have to. Phil, no, you'll see someone else. Probably have one. Why? He killed the neighbors. At where that's to. God, that would be so cool if, if, uh, if you did that and then you just have one kid that wears exclusively dead, animal, corpse items. I got a feeling that this happens in like the northern points, northern parts of Canada, right? Where they're up there. Yeah. Muscat earrings. Well, I'll let you know if that, uh, Newfoundland actually goes, you know, I'll let you guys know. I'll be up there. I have to tell you a conversation with someone whose wife was having like, not like a bachelorette party, but damn near it with like friends from college in Newfoundland. What are they do? What do they know that we don't know? They're like swimming with whales and getting hammered. It sounds awesome. She called from a friend's phone and he was like, okay, what I don't know if that one is like, what's going on in Newfoundland? I love it. Oh, I know that. I'm going to be like looking at property after 30 days. Dude, I bet I'm going to love it. I mean, there's probably hot dudes in Newfoundland. And by the way, the DMs exploded dozens of people being like, hard to talk about Newfoundland is actually fucking sick. Do you know where to go? Yeah. Um, so I'm, you know, I hope it goes, dude, because I would love to spend some time on that. You know, play sucks when your DMs flood with people explaining how it's actually cool. I don't, I don't know. Like when a place is, when a place is actually cool, there's no DMs. They go, yeah, we know New York City. It's pretty cool. LA. Yeah, it's good time. Some people have to rep for their city to really put you on some of them. You're missing my entire point. There are, there's so many people who don't, they don't, they go, yeah, obviously. Yeah. But before Austin became like blown up and is, before now people are like, we don't want more people to move here, but 15, 20 years ago, people from Austin would be like, the fuck is Austin? They would go, Oh, actually, it's fucking sick here. You know, I don't know if people did that. I went to Austin and when I was in college, I was like, this place is fucking radical. And no one was trying to sell me on it. And I don't think anyone was trying to sell anybody on it then either. But it's a different time, Anders. People are trying to sell everything. I mean, nothing to me. Yeah. The frog. I am the frog. I am the frog. We are a circle of life. Tell your mustache. Show me. I mean something to that. My white ass mustache. Dude. Come on. Are you using just for men? Are you going to do this? You know, it's funny. The day I was like, if I like book a thing or they're like, and keep the mustache, but then they sit you down in the chair and they're like, we're definitely going to want to even this hour. We're going to dial it back a little bit. Yeah. They would probably, they probably comb something into it right after they give me eyebrows, which I've gone. They've just gone. My eyebrows, toady, toady and the eyebrows were like, yeah, they've received it into your school. Anyway, that was the instincts of like the frog to look for the moisture was the whole point of that story. Sure. And I think that we have just instincts to be like, all right, that just came out of that chicken. I bet it tastes good and has nourishment. That's probably true. Yeah. I have instincts to maybe use just for men because I saw a photo of myself. Chloe just took like a can of photo of me holding both the other day and I had some raised in a way that you don't notice it when it's just you, you don't notice it living your life. I don't notice it because I'm not staring at the side of my head. But when you see a candid photo, you're like, oh, damn, son, damn, you're a little sparkly. And by the way, to get a candid photo of Adam is almost damn near impossible. It's hard. He's got his own ears, like the swiveling. He's swiveling. He's got that head on a swivel. He's hitting the dimple before you make a click. What are you thinking, bro? Are you going to go like unnaturally dark or are you going to try to like match because it always looks bad. Just pitch back. I think what I'm going to try to do is go so dark. And then also they told me they were like, if you grind your teeth anymore, you need a full new set of teeth. Your teeth are grinded to the bare minimum that they can grind. Adam, listen, these are dentists who know you are. They want your money. Don't listen to them. Don't listen. Hey, but I'm going to get the biggest Joe Biden chomper to where now I don't even sound like you know when an actor gets new teeth and suddenly they don't sound like themselves. Then for example, I don't think you know how and just give us the one example. I do want to give it, but I don't think I mean, I know him. I worked with him. I don't know if he would like that I'm putting him on blast. Nero. So this probably is a just this guy. No, I think a lot of older actors do not sound like themselves when they get a brand new set of big old chomper. Walter Mathau in dentists and then yeah, yeah, yeah, paint and wood because it changes the shape of your mouth. So it changes how. And what's going on, don't you, don't you have a chance to save your mouth? Don't you have a mouth guard you wear at night every night, dude? And you're grinding through that multiple. I've grinded through multiple mouth guards. This dude thinks he's Eric Nice. Come on. I mean, I'm going to give it points because I'm a soon, I don't know that it'd be there, but I. And I guess we're not talking about tips anymore that the chip has sailed that chip has sailed. We can always go. Yeah, that ship has sailed. I had that one. I was like Williams. But forgive him points, I don't know. Maybe you shouldn't look at photos of yourself anymore, Adam. Yeah. Cool. I'm sorry. I'm not too. I'm not that being nice. You guys watched the movie. Oh God, damn it. Train drums. No. I heard it. What? Yes. Yes, I did. With Joel Egerton. It's just about a dude's life as a logger. And he was like, he gets into the city one day for some reason or another. And he looks in a mirror and he's like, it had probably been about 10 years since it looked in a mirror. And I was like, that is, and I understand what they're doing. They're trying to put up, they're trying to juxtapose life back then with life now, where we are constantly looking in the mirror or at ourselves on our phones, but it works. I was like, God damn, especially as actors can't imagine not knowing what I look like for 10 years. Just going through life, being like, yeah, but he's always staring into a pond or a creek. Yeah. This is brilliant. If you think your face is wavy now, I'm not saying wavy dude. No, I'm not saying wavy. I'm saying fully cracked, rippled. Rippled? Yeah. Imagine telling to your friends who are like shaving next to you in the creek to just, 'cause you stop, please flash them. Stop. Please. I was trying to look at my grill brother. Yeah. It's just stuff coming off. I'm asking you to stop. Hey. Move that roof. Can you go pan for gold somewhere else? I'm trying to get right for these bitches, bro. That movie was sick. I'm like, a Blake dropped the exit so quickly. Come on. Come on. We're panning for gold, so it's probably in the bay area. Yeah, yeah. It's probably, you know, it's almost exclusively guys out there. Yeah. Yeah. Hornet. But there's a few bitches. Go pan for hella gold. Yeah, there's a few people down there, y'all. Come on. That makes sense. We're getting high fee in the river, bro. Let's do this. That checks out. So, yes. I went to Sweden. OK. Let's start. There we go. Yes, here. He's back. He's back. I do want to start with just the movies I watched on the point. Oh man. You guys. OK. I don't, I don't watch anything anymore at all. And so this is it. Sure. This is when I get into it. OK. My favorite part about flying like long distances, I know, right, is watching like four movies in a row. Yeah. And not catching up on sleep. How everyone's like. Well, what's so great about it is it's a 10-hour flight so you can right you can watch you movie have a glass of wine And then and then get a full-night sleep. I don't do that. I watch like I've movies in a row and then I miserable the entire I read I read books, but yeah, no movie sounds fun. That puts me to sleep. You never read books Um, I do read I watched the two I have another thing to talk about the two 28 years later movies. Did you guys watch these? No, I saw the first I haven't watched the the bone. Yeah, was it the bone collector bone temple bone temple bone collector Also sick. Oh, it's called bone temple. Well, yeah. Did you see the first of them? I've only seen the very first one 28 days later, right? Oh 28 days later. Yeah, I think they all I've been a week later. I think 28 weeks later It was sick. I saw that in the theater and I remember the opening being like fucking unreal. Yeah, that was the first time that zombies Ram correct You imagine by the way being like I'm gonna make a zombie movie. Oh, okay. They run. No, no, they run. I'm sorry They what and it broke Hollywood and then Hollywood Hollywood couldn't stop making zombie movies or zombie shows This was their hot 20 years. That was their hot honey, and they go It's on the way. So now when you pitch a zombie movie first thing out of the gate is like now these runners are the Somblers. Okay. Got it. Got it. Got it. I like I like how your executive is a little drunk I don't know. So they stumble these executives don't say another word. So you tell me almost don't They hear me. They hear me. They read the late nights. Mm-hmm. Don't tell me Are they stumbling? Is that a call back what you'd like getting it to read a late night? We're put up in the bill of your hat so we don't flay for you. She has shake one loose. Are they stumbling? You don't need chips. Your body's a temple. This body's a big lady's used to call me the bone temple That's actually not bad. Oh my job. My job. What did you just say top safe? What'd you just say? Anyway, these movies are written by the dude who wrote the original and they're fucking genius. They're unreal. They're crazy and Ray finds his in them. He's Unreal. We say these movies what they did like a back-to-back double whammy. I did not and they essentially are like it's like two episodes of a show Yeah, but like long long form. Okay. That's how you explain movies now. Well It's like if you get to so Blake. It's like if you get two chips that are connected by accident Right. It's like when I say like I'm reading a book it like that would call it a double features Regardless of how or when he watches them instead of saying novels We say it's the back of a cereal box, but like the 300 of them collected much longer. Yeah, absolutely. I get it now. That's right. I get I finally watch Marty supreme. Oh, I never dabbled in that Insane movie, right? Well, I like here's my thing. I like those movies don't work on me because I don't tolerate people like him Like that character, but you tolerate zombies. Oh, yeah I tolerate them about a nine nine point five. I just am like people who are pushy and who are like no listen Dude, please listen, hey listen, trust me. You're gonna go you're so annoying. You might even be on to something I don't want to deal with this energy. I'll see you around Oh, sir. I don't like it. Okay, and that's your movie going experience that I just was like I don't I just don't They like you don't like to be like this guy who rocks and I'm like I find this person so annoying and obnoxious Okay, a guy who's like look and I get it. He doesn't take no for an answer. He's hyper competitive I find that just like nails on a chalkboard where I'm just like And these are people who wear down other people and that's where they find their success by just wearing down other people And I'm like, I don't want to be around that energy. I can't believe I just watched this three hour ping pong movie championing this guy So they're uplifting his personality to the point that nobody acknowledges that he actually sucks and that bothers you No, because no, no, they do kind of like even it out where it's like his life around him is a disaster You know what I mean? Yeah, everything's fine. I'm trying to think of another example of that But maybe it's like but the movie itself is crazy like it's a An epic sweeping epic. Yeah, it's a sweeping epic and it's like safty style, right? Like it has like a really crazy energy to it. Yes. I've never seen it. But yeah Yeah, I mean, it is just a guy who's his own worst enemy But I think that this one they were championing and championing a little bit more than Uncut gems or what is it good good night or yeah, I was gonna say so then you didn't like uncut gems because uncut gems No, I don't like uncut gems. No, I love that movie. Yeah, but I loved Good night or what what's it called? Good time good time. Good time. I was like This is amazing Right, I watch good time way after I watched all the other ones and I could see if you started with that that the other ones would be like Oh, you're kind of just trying to do that again So that I get but I saw uncut gems first and I thought that movie was quite excellent It is but it's it's not a relaxing movie going experience. You're not like you're you don't walk away feeling refreshed You feel drained. It's not and by the way train dreams the train dreams right after Marty supreme couldn't be a different town right as far as like You are just in the nature with train dreams like chillin mm-hmm. I got too many of that one But yeah, then I went to Stockholm and I went to Copenhagen. Yeah, brother. And what are those white countries like? Yeah, they're not as white as you think No, I imagine it just just all tall whites looking like you Yeah, yeah, here's what I will say Lot of tall whites a lot of women 6465 oh damn We're not and I don't mean like everywhere, but I mean like a lot of places. You're like yeah, that woman 65 That if that if that happened here, you're like oh, they're a volleyball player. Yes, or they're a model or some no and and there They're like the door person at whatever like Seven eleven. They all look like your hero homeboy from the Norwegian World Cup team What is that rose name my hero homeboy the like terminator on the norweg. Erling. Oh dude. Erling Holland guys so sick That's my kids hero for sure dude. He is so cool. Yeah. Yeah, he's a G But I could see him beat the female version of her him a lot of that a lot of that um, but you know I mean you're in the city so the cities are filled with immigrants from other people around the world, right? So it's not as white as you would think it probably was in like the 70s as you would you imagine a beautiful it wasn't um It's so pure, but I will say the like globalization of like Brands and like stores and Doritos kind of blows dude. That's what annoys me about traveling is when we went It's been a few years now, but we're in Rome and I'm like oh this is like any other city I mean it's awesome. The call seems there in the forum and and Nevada can get out of it But it's like brought you by into it But you just walked on the street and there's like oh, you know, there's a yeah all the stores that you're just used to seeing And you're like yeah, there's a gap on the corner across the stadium So my wife competed at this thing and across the uh high rocks. How'd she do? She did good. They got 28th in their age group on the planet So she's The worst they've ever done. I think it's getting more popular more competitive And they are like I don't know They're about to age up to the next age So hopefully they can dominate some grandmas. Oh, that's when you really can crush it. Maybe they'll start dominating again Exactly. That's like me at the turkey trot. Yeah, because didn't they get and I I don't want to air her Her laundry, but didn't they get like Fifth or seventh or something a couple years ago? I think they were top 10 last year. They're top 10 Well the year before that, but it is getting more competitive. We're there's some stallions I bet we got there and it's this is the world championships you look around everyone is Jacked Mm-hmm and everyone's from around the world are like from Australia, New Zealand, Japan, fucking Brazil, like the UK, Ireland, everyone is just fucking shredded. Oh man And who was the most jacked country? Would you say? Did you look around? You're like my god Portugal is showing out. Oh, Portugal's got some. Look at look at this Venice, Wales, wow I know they do a Like at the Olympics. They do like the welcome where you like every country enters the arena or whatever Oh, and we have done that before And we skipped it this year. We were just like It's do we really want to be on our feet like well or my wife like walking for like an hour into this process and like It's kind of like hey you gotta save your energy. You're trying to win the damn thing Yeah, they did it. They did it But I don't know most jacked country. I don't know. I don't know But then where you like you see like Ireland. You're like dude It's crazy because you know when you see like a clear-skinned white Irish person that is just like Absolutely jacked, but you can't tell until you get really close. That's true like shameless from WWE Yeah, like a Santino guy who when Santino was at his reddeness you were like oh, okay All right Yeah, yeah, I know what you mean. There's a guy that worked out of my gym I used to work out at that fancy gym in Hollywood, Unbreakable, and it was the one where it's like I'm working out with like Wiz Khalifa and like the CEO of Comcast and we're working out together. And it was, it was a very strange and those are different guys for now. Surprisingly. Yeah. By the way, Wiz Khalifa is the nicest coolest guy you've ever met. Yeah. But there was this one guy who, I don't know what he did, but he looked just like a bus boy. He just like wore like dirty gym shorts and a t-shirt and this is the kind of gym that people like come in looking, they're in their athlete leisure or something. He created snapchat. Yeah. And he doesn't look particularly jacked would just annihilate everywhere because it was like kind of a cross-fiddy type thing that we were doing and he just worked it and he was Irish as fuck. So now that we're saying that, I'm like, yeah, I guess Irish it's, it's sneaky, but then you see like, there's a reason bodybuilders tan up so you can see their muscles more defined. Yeah. Black guys aren't actually that jacked. I didn't say that. I didn't say that. It's just that they're darker so it reads better if they're not really that jacked. It does read good. It does read good. It does read good. And it takes back. Who will you trust, your friends and neighbors, who will you trust the people five miles overseas? This is a story about neighbors turning on each other and what happens when a forgotten place decides it's had enough. We reached for a feeling that exists in this city, but we're not stopping only.

I've been going to watch World Cup games, and there was a really funny match up at the bar where it was Brazil versus Scotland. And you couldn't have two more different types of people at the bar, where it's just like, I mean, no shade to Scotland, but you know, they're not like the hottest fan base on Earth. But then like all these Brazilian people are fucking hottest fucking. It's just like, you know what? That might be one of the sexiest countries. I would say, I wouldn't say that you said Scottish people. Yes. I think we can just say like, it's not that Scottish people are ugly. It's that Brazilians are a heightened human. Sure. Cut from a. Yeah. A different cloth. Unreal. And that cloth is very tiny. It's fucking cool. Yeah. It was so tiny. I was kind of bumped because like, I didn't realize. So what bar do you go to to see, are we going to blow up your spot? I mean, there's a pub like out by where I live. And then there's like a more like kind of like a cooler sports. So it's kind of what vibe you're looking for. If you're looking for like down and dirty like England game, then like that's just like you can't sit down or if you're trying to go to like a place that actually has like Hollywood good looking people like a chill, relaxed, brazilvers. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, because I know the the dive bar that's down the street from your house. The fact that they even turn the games on is kind of crazy to me. Oh, no, no, no, it's not that. It's not that. It's not that. It's a proper. A pub. It's a different bar. Not the one that I'm thinking. No, no, no. I'm not trying to put one of the many neighborhood bars that Blake Frequence. Uh, on a blast because he could be there at any night, any night of the week. Absolutely. Especially for the world cup. How is the energy in the stadium on real? Oh, yeah. I went to a game. I went to Switzerland Bosnia, which was also like it's just so cool to see like all people just coming together. No matter what. Pop quiz. It's actually Bosnia and the age, something with the age heard in it crazy. I couldn't even tell you something with the age. My kids say it. Rolls off their tongue hurts a govina. Yeah. I feel terrible. That's the name of the country. Bosnia and Herzegovina. And I'm like, hey, Bosnia verse a new country called Herzegovina. No, no, no, no, no, no, it's Bosnia and they're a one. They're together. They're a compound Zems. Yeah. Okay. Speaking in the first grade teacher, uh, it's an adverb, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Herzegovina. Yeah. After referred to as Bosnia Herzegovina or simply Bosnia. Yes. Yep. Okay. Hey, learn something new every day. BH Baracko. Yeah. And also Bosnia. If you would have had me guess where Bosnia is, uh, you want South America. Somebody help me. I would have thought Bosnia is just off the tip of Russia. Mm-hmm. Good man. It's like good. Yeah. I would have guessed it's like right there. It is just across the bay from Italy. Yeah. As you say that, I still go and that's not near Russia. Okay. Yeah. Well, Italy is like right here and then it's just like that little slit on the backside of the booth. Whoa. Right. Right. Right. That's better. Good. And then there's Bosnia. Yeah. I would not have guessed that. I'm sure. And I'm, um, well, USA has to play Bosnia. So I'm kind of, kind of not on the first of July, right? Is that? Dude. This would have already come out. Yeah. Hopefully we won. I know. As Sweden's still even in. Uh, today, right before we got on, uh, Brazil was losing to Japan. Then they tied it up and then in the last minute of, uh, stoppage, Brazil scored. And then I came in here and I don't know if Japan got the clap back or bitten or what. But it was like, um, Japan was going to beat Brazil and knock them out. But I don't know if it happened. It didn't happen. That would have been really crazy. Brazil won. It's actually now that I'm like watching football soccer, like a beautiful game. A lot of, a lot of the goals happen at the very end of the game. Is it just because everybody's tired as fuck or they're like, oh, that's when they start trying to try. Yeah. Yeah. Well, yeah. People get tired and you defend worse, you know, you defend less, uh, and then opportunities are made. or capitalized on. And we just need to make sure we do these things better. Listen to like any sports post talk is like absolutely insane. We did the right things right, but did the wrong things wrong. Next time we just got to be bigger, better, faster and high mom. That's why as a kid, I was like, why can't they be funny? Like why what is stopping them from just having a personality? Yeah, right. Most of them don't. Because shack would be funny in some moments, but then you would see him like hunker down and just say the shit and you're like, because you're exhausted, you just got done playing a full fucking basketball game and then they put a microphone in your face and you just go like, we got to defend better and you know, make sure that we score more points. Okay. Well, it's like doing press. It's like doing press. The first time you do press, you're like, I'm going to give a different answer every time I'm going to be fun. I'm going to have it. Good time. I'm going to have a good rapport with these people. Okay. You just you get to exhausted and be they don't even want that. Yeah. They don't care. They want you to give them the thing they can clip and put in and that story. But you know what I do. I don't like anymore is now the post game interview. I feel like just Jimmy Glick over here. The players have cussed a little too much in yeah, we're getting cavalier. Post game. We're getting cavalier. It's a little, I don't like it. It used to be like a big deal if it was like, oh shit, shack said shit, but now it's like the post games are like, man, we fucked them up. We just got a fucking play harder and just bring it to their ass and you're like, whoa, what the hell? Well, is it because that because I thought that the other day as well, I said, I think we've seen a similar clip. I was like, have they not raised the like penalties like they find 10 grand or whatever. But now these guys are making, they're signing $200 million for your contracts. So the 10 grand for them is like $5. So they're like, fuck it. They're like, who is a fucking shit? I'm going to say what I say. I also like, come on, like, I mean, not to get polycharged, but like the president lets bombs drop all the time, like, like, language bombs. He doesn't have. And you don't like that. And real bombs. He drops, language bombs and real bombs. Yes. And real bombs. Okay. We got you. Yeah. I think we got to get back to not cussing so darn much. Okay. And that's my big stance. You know, as a dad, I balance this every goddamn day because I'm like, I swear a lot. I swear. I think I swear most of the most people have a bad mouth. You have a party mouth. You have a true party mouth. Yeah. My dad never swore. Right? He swore like three times. And it was like a, and not at me or like when something happened. It was like we'd be telling a story or something when he's quoting someone else and you're like, oh my god, my dad just wore. Yeah. But like, I swear. And so now like around my kids, I try and not swear, but I'm also like, now I'm like faking the funk and like, you know, you're like, what's okay to fake the foot? You don't need to keep it real 100% of the time. But I guess what I'm saying is, I guess what I'm saying is like, there is a like weird line where you're like, what am I shielding them from? Right. Sure. It doesn't matter. Cursing, it just, you don't want them to get, have that tongue and then it's hurting them in school. They're not, they're not advancing. They're in sports that they get in trouble or whatever. Exactly. But like saying, now they're just saying it in a press conference. And so yes, I agree with what you're saying. But also like nobody fucking gets a shit. But they do, but they do though because the people that are cursing are the best of the best. Right. Right. And they've been the best of the best forever. So if you, if you're the, if you're the high school kid and you go, I'll fuck this shit. The coach is going to be like, hey, I'm going to bet your ass. And then they goes fucking try it and then they're in the middle of the championship game and they go, okay, fucking, just get in, just get in, just get in there, fucking get in there. To quote you back to you, fucking get in there, fucking get in there. That's the big moment of like the new that's my dogs. And to quote you, just get the fucking their ass hole is the fucking their fuck. Oh, dude, fuck. I'm scrolling through my iPad on the plane and I'm like looking at movies and I have repo man like there, right? Oh, and Amelia, my kid goes and fucking points at it and I'm like, what? He goes, I know him. I'm like, you know that guy, he goes, yeah, he's your mighty ducks and I was like, fucking sick. Oh, that's a, that's a huge get right there. Huge get. I'm excited. I'm excited for that point when Bo can start watching repo man. repo man. Just, like, I don't even know if I can watch repo man, it's just cult classics. No, like mighty ducks and all the like the sports kids and it says it'll be fun rewatch it. Do you guys think this is weird? Just sent my kid to camp. It's like a six hour bus ride up from Southern California to Northern California. And the tradition of this camp on the bus ride has it like the bus have a DVD player. They play all three Beethoven movies. Whoa. Okay. I haven't watched Beethoven in a long time. Just six hours of grotin. What's funny is that dude, that's Charles Grotin, big grotin energy. That started it. I for sure. In 1993. I'm saying I'm like, I'm like, who hasn't been like, let's change it up. And then just the next year they just put it on again and then the next year they put it on again. And then they're like, well, we did it three years a row. It's our tradition now. It's now a tradition. Yeah. I'm like, this can't be the Lego movies are like, no, 30 years later, they're still blossoming. They are waiting for the dude who is just gripping that tradition so hard to fucking croak run. But he's not going to learn, man, he's going to keep playing the shit out of them. But just blew my mind, blew my mind because I'm like, why is that? But it is totally somebody did it. Maybe as a joke, maybe not, but at a time where it did make sense. And it's just, I don't know, they're stuck in the goddamn TV. Where? What? What? What happens in number three copies? What's so funny is that I'm learning that most people aren't joking. Most people aren't joking ever science, like hardly ever is anyone joking, but we live in a world. I had to have Adam sitting around going, wait, this isn't the most people. I just realized aren't joking. They're not joking. They truly like that. I agree. As I become like a sports dad, and you sit down with other dads, other dads, they're not joking at all. There's no jokes, dude. There's no jokes. And they're not, it's not that they're serious, it's just that they're not joking. And they don't know how to compute jokes. Well, you'll say a joke, and they'll go, I mean, I had a bit forever that I would do where someone, they won't comment, they won't actually laugh, they'll just comment on the laugh. They say that's funny. They'll say, that's funny. And that happened to me the other day at the playground. I took my son to the playground, and I don't know even what I said, but it was just kind of an offhand joke, and he just goes, that's funny. In such a straight way that I'm like, fucking, I hope you get hit by a bus, like fuck this guy. Perfectly nice guy, perfectly nice guy, but I'm like, dude, just laugh then. Or don't. Even if you're like, God, this season is going to go on forever. They're like, it ends in August. Yeah. You go. You're unbelievable. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It seems like it to you, maybe to you. Yeah, dude. People aren't joking, and it really bums me out. It really bums me out. We got to get back to Giglin. I'm trying to just give the chucks and the gigs. But it's also like, my kids are goofballs, they're like, they like to joke, they're goofy, and it's hard to reel them in because I am not like a serious dad. And when I see these like serious dads, their kids are also like, not always joking. Or like, they're easy to reel back in and be like, hey, cut it out, and they go, yeah, no, for sure, dad, because we're serious. We're all serious. Because we're serious people. Yeah. Sorry, sorry. Yeah. And those guys are going to grow up and probably do well being a business nerd, and fuck them. But their lives are going to be so boring. Yeah. Dude, our lives are crazy. Compared to theirs? Yeah. Dude. They've just got to watch Bates open one through three every year, and they'll find their humor. They'll find their way. That's what'll break them out of the show. Are there any take backs in any apologies, any epic slams here, boys? Yeah. I don't know what I'm, I feel like, you know what I'm saying? You have as a jimmy-glick thing happening today. What's going on? I did just watch the Martin Short documentary, and that might have kind of wore off for me. Did you? You going to give me flowers? It's not dead. I don't give anybody. Wait a minute. No, I know. Adam, you're being joke. Serious. Kind of prove him a point here, okay? Say, jimmy-glick is one of the most, one of the funniest characters ever invented. He absolutely destroys when he's jimmy-glick. Yeah. I crap. You know, I didn't, I, I guess, Martin Short never did it for me in the way I figured. Does it for some people who came up to work and I was came up a little short for me and I loved Jimmy Glick that's probably my favorite Martin short character of his but watching that documentary I
