Welcome back to the son of a boy Ed podcast today. It is November 10th. It is 10.59 AM, and we are here live from a circle for the surf ski round, it's got a lemon lime. Surf ski lannister over here, a little watermelon line for me. It's rift day, everybody. It's rift day, we're riffing off the phoenix and the new tropic palette is MOOC we were talking and he was like, he was like, I've already had two dance and I'm about to have a Dave and then you end your day with the Kevin, oh boy, it's got me that cracked me up. Kevin came out of retirement management to pile on, we figured we needed to see the three horsemen of the apocalypse for this one. Well, then you get you have a Ryan too, you know what I mean, have a big bottle of Ryan. Like a show's up who's Ryan Whitney, a big with a crazy Ryan. Okay, by the way, I had no idea what we were talking about. Okay. I put it all on different pages right now. I was referring to Dan as in coffee, coffee is in the energy drink and then you got that. Yes. And then a Kevin would be the new guy too. You were howling. Oh, I was. I thought you meant that MOOC had already had two like angry phone calls. No. No. Then he was about to have to speak to Dave, which is why I rift to Kevin and Erica. And you said Ryan and I figured it was Ryan, our head of sales. Oh, no. Now I've got to go Ryan Whitney for discipline. I was doing whoever has proprietary drinks, I was going midnight bean for night bean. Midnight bean. I did. I'm going to put a five minute muzzle on for how much I misunderstood. No. What we were talking about. I mean, I liked your version as well. Well, that would be how? Yeah. Two Dan's and then it's Dave. Two calls with Dan and then it called with Dave and it's the end of the line. Yeah. No, there's no point in having the call with Dave. No, just don't pick it up. You're like, don't worry. I'm on my way to a large cliff. You usually doesn't even get to the second Dan. No, you two calls with big cat in the same day. It's like you did something really bad, something really bad. I've reconsidered how much I yelled at you, and fortunately it was far worse. That's what happened to me the day I got fired. Yeah, I'm sure. It was like, it was like I remember being getting texts from Dave that were written in all caps. Oh, my God. Not great. And then I was like, if I hear one more time from anyone at the company, it's going up. And then I saw my phone ringing and it was Dave and it was like two hours after the last message he sent me and I was like, oh, no, yeah, it's over. This is bad. Did you ever hit the bottle really hard after that? No. That's such a shame. I don't think I've ever had like a really like, like a, like a, you know, a reason to really get after the bottle. Yeah. Like a fuck. I'm going to have to black out tonight. Yeah. Dude, you know what's crazy is that like in my lowest moments of like, whoa, that went poorly, like really bad things. My autopilot, one time I went on stage was like my response, clear the brain, which, well, I don't even know. It was just like, I'm going to go do the one thing that even through a fog, I can kind of like do and maybe that'll feel grounding or something, I'll find my feet again a little bit. Did you do? Did you eat shit or did you? No, I remember. It was my five year reunion for college and it was there at that, that like the relationship I had been in for many years ended definitively. And I had not thought that it would. And it was really like I was broken. Where was this? At Harvard. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I'm just trying to remember. I thought I feel like I've heard part of the story. Yeah. I mean, I then I went to my Airbnb and sat on the floor of the shower. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. The tears mingled with hugging my knees. With the wood shampoo. Yeah. Clogging the drain with a but cheek and watching it just slowly rise over my feet, you know, really dark. And then like somehow I was near the comedy studio, which was Boston, yeah, in Cambridge, above the Hong Kong restaurant still. Its sense has moved. But that was like the first comedy club I ever got up at. And I like, hold myself together, dressed and like walked over there and asked them if they would put me on the show and he's like, yeah, we'll give you five minutes. That's nice. And I went up. You definitely can't do that anymore. You definitely can't walk into a club and be like, hey, you might if I get five, they'd be like, get the fuck out of here. Oh, I think we could do that. I think you and I could do that. Oh, well, yeah. Come on now. Wait, what are you just going to relinquish the point that quickly? I'm saying, I'm saying, I don't think like, like, like a no name regular comedian could go in to just a club now. No, I know. I think five. That will our net movie is based on that, though. Yeah, yeah. Hey, can I get up at the comedy show tonight? I mean, that's like crashing as well. He's like, are he meets already laying and he's like, can we be roommates? Yeah. Yeah, definitely. After my 30 years of successful touring, I'm looking for roommates now. We're going to live with Sarah Silverman together now. Yeah. We're going to live in Sarah Silverman. It's also has roommates. Yeah. John Mulaney is taking it. And he's interested in me. Wow. Yeah. Yeah, it was really like a moment of like such a turning point in my life, that moment. Oh, yeah. Or it was like the only lifeline that was thrown to me was comedy. And then from then on, I was just like, I'm not going to bet anything on anyone else other than myself and just follow my own thing all the way through. Did you have like a little bit of like an in-sell arc? No. No. Did you have a, what about a wrong with it? What about a Valsau arc? What's Valsau? Valsau? Yeah. Valsau. Oh, sorry. You were you said. It never occurred to me after a relationship ended that I should stop having sex with women. Oh, okay. That was never. That's good. Like, I was never that angry. Yeah. I know. I mean, you went out and got some pussy that night. Yeah. You might have definitely didn't. Yeah. Of course. I was like, you want to come back and see my shower? There's room for two on the floor, you were still filled up to the ceiling. By the way, did you ever finish deer hunter? Yeah, I did. Yeah. That kind of reminded me of it when they're like underwater in like the like the jail. Oh, God. You know what I'm talking about? Yeah. Of course. Like they're like up to their eyes and the fucking jail. Yeah. And the rats. are all in there. Yeah, it's crazy. It's coming here. He's in the apartment. I got to watch that movie. You'd love it. I was telling Frances. I just watched a prime time. There's that. The Deon Sanders stock. Oh, oh, yeah. How's that? It was, uh, it was, uh, it was, uh, it was, uh, it was pretty good. It's football and it's father becomes a coach. It was good. It was, uh, you know, it wasn't as bad as people said it was. Like, I thought it was going to be a really bad. It was kind of funny. There was funny parts. What was the jet? What was the funny parts? You know, I was just like the, like the decoy is funny, like the kid. The guy he's like, he plays one of the kids as that's supposed to be like the, the, they lure in the guy with. Yeah. But he treats it like a full, like, acting gig. He's like, he says he's trying to get. No, literally, like he tries to, he's trying to get put in the back. I just need to take a shower. Yeah. It's not what I'm not. He says he's trying to get footage for his real, for his acting real. And then like it, like they pull, like it's all live. So like he'll do the, you know, he'll bring in the pedophile and then he'll go back and he'll be like, he'd be like, how was that? And he's like asking for notes and they're like, it was fine. He keeps doing it. I know that's how Timothy Xiaomei got to start. Oh, yeah. He used to be one of the lures. You may remember him from the dentist's house, the, uh, the ending was good. Like, I didn't, I didn't realize it's how I made a catch a predator six episodes, unnamed bait, Tom Holland, uncredited bait, fresh faced 13 year old. There was a scene where like Robert Pattinson, like, comes home late at night and he like brings his kids, his two sons downstairs to like watch his show with him in like the middle of the night. And they're like, they're like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, dad's gonna be on prime time. It's like the fucking Indian dude in the living room talking to the kid while he's showing his like children, his young kids. Well, who's the Indian dude? Is that the guy that got naked? I don't know. Oh, I see. Yeah. Um, there was a lot of discourse about the movie where everybody was like, it's making pedophilia. Like it's making him seem like the bad guy. What was your take on all the discourse? Cause I participated in the discourse. I didn't see the movie. I didn't watch the movie. I just jumped right to the discourse. So what is now that you've seen the movie? What's your opinion on the discourse? I don't, I didn't really get that. Like maybe I'm just like not looking at it through the right way or the right lens. Like I thought it was, um, they definitely aren't making pet files out to be like, not that bad or anything. They definitely make Chris Hanson out to be not a great guy, but it's more so just showing how like fame hungry he was and like, um, he's like, she's on his wife, but they're not like, they're definitely not saying like, so he's as bad as these guys worse than the pedophiles. Like there's no part like that. Also, everyone was like super, I feel like there was a bunch of discourse about the rabbi scene, but the rabbi scenes like three seconds long. And it was the rabbi scenes and walks out to the rabbi spaces. Yeah. It's just like who do you think you are to be doing this and he leaves the like you're under arrest. He says that's a Chris Hanson. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, what do you think you are to give you the authority? And then that's it. This is my right. Yeah. Yeah. What's his argument there? I don't know the rabbi. Interesting. But you know, it's definitely like, there are some funny scenes like there's the one guy, his whole job is he's the guy that finds the pedophiles online. So he's just messaging pedophiles 24 hours a day. That'd be fun. Just on like his computer. I'd be good at that. I'd be so good at that. I'd be really good at that. That should be like a pet project for you or something like that. Yeah. I think I would do that. I would do well with that. Do you guys know how the show ended? Someone blew their brains out. Yeah. Like the, the DA in Texas. Yeah. What? Yeah. They like, so that was like kind of what the whole things about is like they're building up there. They found the whale and they're like, they're trying to get this guy to come. And it turns out it's like the DA of some district in Texas. I'm not aware. That's bad. Yeah. But it's true. That's I looked it up after. I was like, so I don't, because I, people were saying there was some stuff that wasn't right. So I was like, I don't know what's fake and what's real. And then I looked it up at the end. And that's actually why it ended because they got killed himself when they raided him. The human mind is a nasty place. Oh, yeah. Wait. So kill him. Did he kill himself when they arrived? So this one was weird. It was like supposed to be like the first like exclusive NBC like raid. Like because it was like pretty much they had the whole plan to like lure him in. The plan didn't work. The guy started wiping all of his accounts. This is what happens in the movie. I don't know if this would happen in real life. The guy starts wiping out all of his accounts like his my space. All of his pretty much all the whole trail of everything that happens. Yeah. I don't know. Like if we don't act on this now, he's not like he's gone. He's going to get away. No one's ever going to catch this guy. So they go to his house because they know who it is. Obviously. And then they like raid him with like pretty much like it looks like they were like they were storming the beaches of Normandy. There was like 90 tanks outside like all this shit. Where they cameras up. Oh, yeah. The producer was like I want cameras on the guns. And they were like, I don't know if we can do that. It's like, let's get cameras on the guns. And she's like, we just did it. Real girl boss. There's a girl boss producer. Yeah, big time. Damn, big time girl boss. But then yeah, then they go in and then he shoots himself. When they go in. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. And then Chris Hansen stays there. He cries. He did. Yeah. Well, in the movie. You know, you don't know what's real. Apparently he bought ad space and the previews to say like this is not real. Hansen did. Yeah. Like the real Chris Hansen. I did not cry. I did not cry. I fist pumped. Tiger Woods making a big club. But yeah, that was that was an interesting one. I was all I was wondering like, do you think anyone's ever like tried? Do you think anyone ever tried to get on to catch a predator? Like just for like promo or something? Like, you know, I got a new album coming out. But like then they like they could never get it. And they just kept on going to kids' houses and doing like, where's your dad? Like someone who tries out for jeopardy for like 20 years desperate to get on keeps going to kids' houses. And he's like looking for Chris Hansen and doesn't show up. Yeah. Oh, all right. I'm gonna beat it. I'm not curious. And you should get help. You shouldn't be talking to strangers. Find me on SoundCloud. Where are your parents? Why am I here? Hands on the CD and fucking bounce off. Just pockets thick with condoms. That's always the big thing too. They're always like, and I brought condoms. Yeah. And they have like a XL box of condoms. And it's like, what do you? No, no, no. It's a little dark. It's a little dark. It's a pretty dark show. Well, yeah. For some reason, we all loved it. I never did you guys ever actually sit down and walk? I would watch clips. I watched it. I mean, I can't say that I was like, oh, it's 730 on 30. Yeah. Yeah. My favorite Joe's on. I didn't do that. But they would have like marathons of it on. Yeah. You just always beyond. It'll be on like Shark Tank. Yeah. There is a road where they move it to prime time. It is cool because they're like competing against lost. Yeah. And it's like who the fuck is watching to catch a predator over lost? Yeah. And as lost as coming out in real time, I probably watch more to catch a predator than lost. Yeah. Me too, of course. But I think it is the choice. It just gives people like a like a high like a moral high ground. It's like you the whole country can get behind. This is the bad guys. Yeah. And we're like actively scrubbing the earth of like such like a deep evil. Yeah. Yeah. There's I mean, I guess I'm just boiling the whole movie, but it's you know, we all know what happens. There's a scene where he's on the plane. And there's a dude next to him. And he's like, he's like, you know, what you're doing is really important. And Chris Anson's like, oh, thank you. And he's like, you ever think about just bleeding them like the bad guys. He's like, um, he's like, I like to think what I'm doing is worse. And the guy's like, yeah. Yeah. Like, how did they write that dialogue? It probably happened. He'd think. I guess they wouldn't know because I don't think they works with with big Chris. Yeah. They're just like saying that. I mean, you thought that the Lichy Martinez was like a some creative license that you took with writing. Like, how are they writing that shit? At least they serve Lichy Martinez at towel, you know, I never wanted to think about that again. Even hearing Lichy Martini just gives me a shiver down my spine. Lichy. Fake ass flavor. Nasty flavor. I like Lichy. I do love Lichy Martin. But now have they been ruined for you? I feel like if you have like, oh, you don't say Lichy Martinez, you're on Francis. You just have a spaz at towel. Anytime I order one now in the bartender brings it over, I'm like, you'd never believe it. But my boss has never had one of these. Have you ever heard of it? Yeah. Do you guys prefer Lichy or Yuzu? Yuzu for sure. Really? No, I don't know what that is. Yuzu is great. Do you remember that awesome restaurant we went to in Chicago? The three of us? Oh, yeah, the one where it was like we were like Game of Thrones. Fancy. Yeah. That place table was just a slab of stone. A hot stone. Just put the steak on it and it cuts hands off the table, boys. That's 400 degrees. They they made the best white negroni I've ever had. And you remember on the way out, I asked for the recipe and they showed me this bottle of Yuzu sake. And he said, this is the secret ingredient. Get it if you can. And I got a ton of it. Was hard to find. No, not so hard. Get it if you can. That's funny. I thought it would be harder to find. But wasn't that hard, maybe that guy just thinks it's like really hard to find this is this rare element. And you easily like it's called vinegar. You can acquire some. You were out in some B.I. right now. No, it's not. And no. Oh, you said, I thought, I thought I smelled prompt actually might be a morgals might have been some of my jacket from this weekend. I feel like I smell some brought down the mortals right now. I don't think I frayed this morning. Action Brompton or mortals? Are you frayed up? No, not that not right now. Yeah, I didn't frayed this morning. You don't want to do this early. Only 11. Oh, do you do not frayed before the gym? I don't know why I said that I absolutely do. In fact, I have a gym fragrance, which I never thought I would say that, but like every fragrance influencer I follow is like, this is my gym's fragrances. Oh, yeah, I follow tons of them. You follow that, you know, that one dude, you know, you said that mockingly is if you couldn't believe that now you have someone on your mind. Well, the guy, yeah, but the guy's like a clown. Who? What's his name? Fuck you guys? You guys know what I'm talking about? Yeah. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Cherry fragrance. Obviously. Well, what's the guy's name? The guy that he makes, he has the one super famous video where he's like, he's like, I forget what he even says. Look up fragrance, YouTuber. It'll be like the first one. There are a lot of them. Is he the super jacked guy? Jimmy, Jeremy, this is this guy right here. I don't know this guy. Jeremy Fragers. The guy that was like, people were going up to him asking him for videos and he would be like, and he would smell them. Yeah. Or they would smell him one of them. No, they come up and be like, what am I wearing? Yeah. And he'd like get right in their shit and smell. But he was good though. I thought that he could like, he could point it out. That's cool. I mean, he's been around, he's been around the block for a while. Like I remember, like Cody Coe and Noel Miller used to make a, made a video about him a while ago. It's got to be Jeremy Fragrance. Would you trust a black man or a white man? Well, Fragrance information black man without a doubt. Yeah. White men are evil. But then, then if you do some of these guys, some of these guys, you, I'm talking again, once about everyone, not, not these guys, the black people. Yeah, of course. I've expanded all all mixed. Yeah. And mixed. Sure. Yeah. Yeah, mixed too. I'm the, some of some of these humans, they show you on in like an instructional video. They're like, how to apply your Fragrance. And I will say the black guys spray it all over their sleeves. Oh, really? Like that, who did that recently in a locker room? Yeah, James. Yeah. Yeah. If you watch some of these like instructional, they end to the clip. I saw I got skunked before this. Yeah. Are you trying to cover up something? Yeah. I've seen them put a drum on the bottom. I've seen them put it as semi automatic and just the titties. Fragrance with the titties. Yeah. It's, I mean, it's a great look. Are there many women influencers? So there are a few, what do they do? I mean, there, I would think that I don't, I don't really follow women, fragrancers for like, they'll do women's perfume. Yeah. Yeah. You know, they should mix it up. You know, they could review men's. They do. Some give the women's a women's the gay opinion, but I don't trust them, you know, in the same way that I don't trust them to drive. Like, yeah, yeah. Of course. Now, how do you feel about women cooking? It depends on what kind of fragrance they're wearing. Are we talking restaurants or homes? Do they have their cooking fragrance on? What aren't they wearing? If you got to get you like a tactical belt of fragrances, you got a fragrance for every, every move, every hour. That sounds like an old like Rob, that sounds like a Rob Schneider movie. Oh, yeah. Where it's like tactical fragrance. Like, you know, Bobby smells fragrance, you know, soldier, and he's got like a belt. And he's like, you know, I guess it's kind of like anchor man. And then it's like, this movie lost 14 million dollars and something to Fubi. I would watch it though. I did. What's the, all those comedies? What's the fragrance and anchor man? The moment he has like, you know, sex walk their way. Yeah. Yeah. That's a classic. That's a real bits of Panther. Yeah. And sex. It's illegal in so many in nine countries. What female fragrances do you guys know? Obviously, Chanel number five, Chanel number nine. The future said it. Dove women's bar of soap. Yeah. I don't know any, I don't know any male fragrances. I got a couple. I got like three sample fragrances at my apartment. Do you know what they are? No, no, no companies. No. I got them at Target. Cool. I mean, Target sells good stuff. Incredible. The target exclusive. They say that like real, real fines or you can, you can get unbelievable like fines and deals at like Sam's club. Oh, yeah. I'm sure that there are like these really expensive bottles that just slip through the cracks and end up create like 70% off. I mean, if you go to like a target and you walk by their fragrance section, it's always like the nicest style of everything. It's like all set up perfectly. There's probably not a ton of people that are going there buying fragrances realistically. There's people who are like geniuses at like finding the like cookware that's actually really expensive. You could get a TJ Maxx or like Sam's club and stuff like that or like clothes that make it to like these like secondary markets or whatever you could get a Montclair jacket that's marked down from like 1800 to $900. But like, it's not worth competing against the people who make it their life to like line up and sprint into a store to get some shit like that. That's like a terrible way to it to exist. Yeah. Yeah. The guy was arrested this week because I think he like left his three year old daughter in line outside of a target for like a Pokemon drop. Oh, really? He just left her like sleeping. Yeah. They just found this little girl in line. And the dad was nowhere to be found. He just went home and like let her sleep. Yeah, that's pretty insane. Can't be doing that guy for sure. They get the cards at least. I don't think he even got the cards. Yeah. That's a terrible day. Drop your daughter off. She turns you in. That's a LLB right there. That's two elves. Absolutely terrible. That's been shook when he saw his daughter coming back to the house, dropped off by someone else. Well, now we don't have a spot in line and I'm in trouble. What the fuck are you doing here? What are you doing here? Honey. What happened to the Pokemon cards? I told you don't move under any circumstances. You love Pokemon. That's why I dropped you off. I'm pretty sure it was. He was definitely waiting in line. I'm pretty sure with Pokemon Tyler. Can you look that up just to make sure? There's a lot of people that are doing like virtual Pokemon cards now. Like it's like a virtual rips. It's like a big thing. I'm so scared that my kids are going to get into something like that. Yeah. Yeah. Just not let it happen. Can you can you do that? Yeah. Can you prevent it? Yeah. Just like ban Japanese anything from the house and they won't get into it. I'm ban my kids before I did that. Yeah. Sure. You got a lot of Japanese. Yeah. It was Pokemon cards. Jesus Christ. I mean. LL Cool J and LB never did a club. I could have called it LL cool means. Awesome. That's a great idea. What a really good. We need to get this across your desk. No. How have they not? I would have loved that. I would have been pretty darn cool. That's something that like you if you had the original that would go for like $10 million sitting right there. Yeah. It's an ice coffee. Yeah. Yeah. I love that. LL cool means. Yeah. I would like it too. I'm imagining it's the exact same font too. Like the same logo. Everything it's just cool. Instead of ladies really did love cool LL cool J ladies did love cool James. And people will put him in lists as like one of the top 10 rappers of all time. Yeah. He's the goat. He is. Yeah. I mean, he's got a great body. Addy. He was in like a long order or some shit like that. He's for like a hundred seasons. Yeah. He's been on. He's still he's still in it. CSI something or long order or one of those. Yeah.

I was in walking down. around my neighborhood like a couple weeks ago and there was they were filming a show one of those shows CIA. So one of those shows where you're like, I've never heard of it and you look it up and there's 17 seasons. But my God, the production that was going into this was insane, like insane. Like I've never seen anything like, bro, they have a thousand people working on this shit. It was literally like it was more people than I've ever seen just on the street and it was every single one of them was wearing like a universal shirt or like whatever company it was that was making it. They were doing the same. They were shooting Ellsbeth in my neighborhood recently and there was like fucking thousands of people. Yeah. Yeah. So many cameras, so many directors chairs. Yeah. The Avengers of directors had to be working on it. Yeah, they got like 18 wheelers with just like people in them just filled with dudes. Yeah. What is Ellsbeth? I've never even heard of that show. And I think it's something that has like a ton of oh, it's probably 30 seasons. Yeah. It's like a massive show. Yeah. Who is watching just a standard cable show on like a like a lot more people than you think. I think people are going back to I think cables coming back. Is it? I think we're making a comeback. I think people miss just the simplicity of just turning the TV. There's too many options now, you know. Dude, you now have access to everything. One of my kids walked down the hallway with a our TV remote. This is probably like 16 days ago now. And it just like as if it were thrown into a fucking black hole. It's fucking gone. Why don't you buy a new one? I've bought three new ones. And then I'll work. And then none of them will pair. None of them work. What kind of TV? Oh, because you got the fucking frame, bro. Picture frame. I need a fucking paintbrush to change my yeah, you know, it's been hell. I literally have to like because my wife now controls her from her phone. I was gonna say that so she'll be in the other room like fucking doing like a red light mask in there during their nap. I'll be like, Hey, like, can I put on the whole game? She's got all the controls. That's brutal. I don't know. Are the dishes? That's fucking brutal. Dude, the phone is also tough because it's you don't realize how much how fast the remotes are. The phone. There's a big delay while you're turning them to volume. It takes 30 minutes to 10 notches. There's a lag. It's been fucking hell. Like I ordered so many iterations of this remote like right away back up. Is it a Samsung? Yeah. You could probably just get one of those universal remotes. You think you think now you're not you're not getting the right gear brother. I'm so geared up. Well, clearly you're not. You got no remote. All right, come over. Be my geek squad then. You might have to just get like an iPad and just have that be the new remote. We had to go through a third party site to get like the official one that comes with the TV. Oh, man, that's not good. You don't even have a date coming on it. So that shit's going in. That's gonna get there in fucking June. Yeah. I'm gonna just be looking out the window like remembering football. It's so fucking brutal. At least sorry, go ahead. Oh, now I was gonna say at least you got your pictures. Fairly though. Like did I tell you guys I got dored on a bike? No. Yeah. Oh, wow. Someone opened the door. No, no. It was it was very lucky. I was turning off of McDougal left onto whatever that fucking bond or something street, you know. It's a dangerous area. And I was just biking and there was a car kind of double parked, but there were no like flash. There were no blankers on or anything like that. And as I went by it, someone it was an Uber and someone opened the door and smashed my bike. I'm going down like a soccer player from Spain and rolling down the block. But I mean, I don't even know whose fault that is. The person that opened the door. Should I not be giving them a wider birth? No, they hate you are supposed to. You have to check. That's like then they literally you get a notification on your phone that says check for bikes. Interesting because they were incredible. Everyone was really nice. Yeah, they just fucking almost killed you. Well, but like I hit you. So I got lucky like the door opened and already my front wheel was past it. So he like opened it into the bike. That's worse. No, if he had opened it and I'd smashed into it, I would know. I mean, it's definitely better for you. But I mean, that's worse for him. How did he not see you? Well, I mean, it was a matter of a difference of half a second. Yeah. So where did you get hit on your body? Yeah, my leg and it kind of hit the pedal probably. But like I smashed, I smashed some of the door. And so I stopped and I was like, whoa, oh my god. And the guy was like, whoa, whoa. And I was like, he was like, Jesus Christ, man. Yeah. And he goes, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Is a young guy? You fall? No. I wasn't going that fast, fortunately, because I had just turned. Oh yeah, yeah. Anyway, he was like, he's like, are you okay? And I was like, I'm okay. I was like, are you okay? He's like, I'm okay. And then I looked into the front window, the driver. And it was like this very meek kind of Indian guy. And he was like, looking at me very sweetly like this. And I was like, are you okay? And he's like, I'm okay. And I was like, it looks like the door is okay. We're all okay. Everyone good. And they're like, yeah, yeah, good. And I was like, okay. And I just kept going. We didn't do anything. Interesting. God, you so you ran the interaction. I think that was the mistake. Look, man, I don't know. You just hope that like whatever. That wasn't that big of a deal. And then today I had another bad moment. Ron, you'll appreciate this. This is scary me. I was pulling my city bike out of the dock right near my building. Big fear. And as I was pulling it, I pulled it out. And a car was coming. And he slammed on his brakes. And if he hadn't, he would have smashed the back wheel. And probably like cleaned me out with it. And that was my fault. Yeah. I didn't look. I didn't look. I mean, he must have been real tied up on the, it's right on it. It's a two way narrow street. And like the bikes, you have to look. And I did not because that usually there's nobody on that street. Yeah. And I looked at him and he was like a cool. He's wearing like a flat brim Latin American guy, like classic kind of Yankee fan, maybe from the Dominican Republic or something like that. And his window was open. And I was like, oh my god, I'm so sorry. And he was like. Domino. Yeah. And I was like great. I literally went great driving. I'm sorry. I need to be more aware of that's on me. And he's like, all good. And he was in a nice BMW too. So like drug dealer we're thinking? Yeah. So one to be. Where did you steal this from? Such a nice car. You're driving really well for your first time. Yeah. That's crazy. That's scary. So that's my big. I thought you were going to say you hit a you pulled the bike out and you hit another bike or because I always get worried about that. No, like ripping the bike out and then someone going by and just close lining them. You want to know what's funny though is that when I get out of my apartment, there's like, I don't know, a hundred steps between my door and the city bike dock. I put my helmet on the second I'm out the door. Oh, that's good. Like I'm just walking down the street with a fucking helmet on safe like a like an idiot. Well, you know, you never know what's falling from the sky. There you go. Yeah. But my thought was like when this happened, I was like, I would have been one of the only people ever to like be protected before I even got on the bike. Yeah. Honestly, it'd be kind of nice to get to get in some kind of accident. Obviously, you don't want that, but to have necessitated the preemptive helmet use. Yeah. It's really careful what I'm doing. Okay. One last thought. One last bike thought. These are just quick hitters. Quick one. It's fun. This is also great. After. Do you want to go because that maybe you'd be better if we interspersed? No, I was just like, I was struggling a deck of cars. I was thinking, have you guys ever like been biking and you're like, maybe it's late at night and you accidentally hit the the bell. Yeah. I've had it where I've like been biking and it's just like, uh, it's like the street is empty and there's like a girl and I hit like a speed bump and I hit the bell. I know exactly what you think. You're cat calling. I didn't mean to do that. Fucking pig. I've definitely had that happen. Well, I'm so I'll just be I'll spam the bell. I was always going off accidently. Ding ding ding ding ding. I never use it intentionally, but it goes off cons. Oh, I spam it though. When when especially that that stretched through Chinatown where they're all cheating out into the bike. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. That's smart. It's the only common language they can understand. Yeah. If you yell something in English, they don't get it now. Yeah. Right. Move out of the way. I don't So what was yours about to be? Oh, um, okay. When you go over the Manhattan bridge, of course, right at the foot, right off at the, at the way into the city or into the city is the wonderful homeless sort of camp. Yes. Yes. There's often a guy who there's often a Chinese guy there that peels shrimp like in the summer months right there as you go around. There's like a counter for the amount of people that have crossed the bridge that day and that year. It's like 1.3 million of crosses here and right underneath that counter, there's often a guy peeling live shrimp right by the homeless encampment. He peels a shrimp for every biker that crosses the bridge. It's for him. I think it's for the his Chinese restaurant, but he just wants a nice sunspot for it. Wow. You have to check it out. I have video of him. I've also never seen that counter. That's cool. It's very good. Where is that? It's right. He's just pulling shrimp out of the Hudson. He's not. No, no. He just has a bowl of shrimp that he peels. Okay. I thought he was probably devanes. Yeah. He probably devanes that. Yeah. That's more sense. Yes. I know exactly that area, but there is that counter. It's very cool. It's like a nice point. I have to point that out to me. I've never seen that. I had no idea. What do you guys say? Shrimp is on for trusted foods. Would you say that's one you trust? Like would you put that up there with chicken? No. No. Far below. Far below. Much more. Most of the shrimp that you eat is farm raised crap. Yeah. But like, so what do you work? Like, do you think you're gonna eat sick? It's just one of those foods that I'm much more careful around. Yeah. I got I got I got shrimp tikka masala the other day. That's disgusting. That fucking dumb ass shit. It was really good. That's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. I've never seen it on the menu. So I'm gonna try it. Anyone makes such a mistake. It was really good. Delicious. But I was worried about the shrimp horse. Yeah. I played Russian roulette with three bullets the other night. Never seen that on a menu before. Yeah. They had shit tikka masala that I got. I mean, it was good. It was really good. That's it. No, I mean, that's one of the last things that I would tikka masala revolted. I mean, there was really it was either chicken lamb or shrimp. I would get like a beef before that. I would get a fish before that. Yes. There's no way I'm tikka masala. Yes. Ew. Yes. That's how you know you don't know you don't get to do that fish tikka masala. That's more like a chilly. What? What? What? What are you talking about? That's like ground fish. You went with garment shrimp. Look, guys, I'm good. My stomach is fine. I made it through. The shrimp was healthy. Yeah. You survived the parachuteless skydive like that. That's not like a fucking mark. That's not like that. That doesn't mean the activity. You're talking about you're eating. You're literally eating shrimp out of the Hudson that a guy. I saw a guy peeling it. You're changing everything. You're shifting your wings. You're a shrimp that comes from under the man. You realize you said something insane and now you're trying to bring the rest of us into your brain. It's not insane. It's not okay. It's on the menu. It's not insane. I mean, he is to his. It wasn't like a custom order. I wasn't like I guys. I'm going to make a crazy request here. Let's throw some of the shrimp in the tikka masala. It's he is Harry shrimp cocktail. I am at the end of the day. Yeah. That's fair. You know what? That's fair. Well, that's it. It like I can't even imagine the tikka masala like taking to the shrimp. You know, what I mean? Well, it took well like a chicken better than chicken. So I might say, no, don't you dare. That's nuts. But then at the same time, like aren't you wondering, okay, the shrimp. Yeah, they're probably not healthy. They're probably not coming from a great place. But the chicken isn't either chicken. It's cubes of chicken. Yeah, perfectly cut cubes of chicken. It's all grown on in on shells in fucking labs, pumped full of hormones. They don't have heads, whatever. The chicken, they never even walk. Absolutely. They're covered in tumors. Something about how universal and how much volume of that kind of chicken there is gives me more comfort than you know, knowing that the shrimp you're eating were being peeled by the hands of a guy who with his other hand was lighting a crack before the shanty people. Yeah, he takes one hit of crack for every person that crosses the bridge. I mean, if that shrimp was peeled by a guy in broad daylight, you know, and seasoned with the fumes of the trains that go by, like, I don't know, that to me is a little off-putting. Yeah, but then you just got to throw it in some teacum masala and you're good. Teacum masala. Yeah, the spices of the teacum, they cook out all the bacteria. Yeah. Heavy and tomato cream sauce. But even just the fact that it exists underwater in a factory farm that's underwater, like that just seems like it's so much more rife for bacteria and not to mention that it's the bottom feeding and it's a fucking bacteria-lating water. Yeah, I mean seafood in general kind of scares me, but I love seafood. But like, it just seems like you're gonna get sick, you know? Yeah. No worse feeling than when you ask someone, like, is that what's local in this menu and there's nothing local? Like a seafood place and it's just like, oh, it's all fucking frozen, brought in from fucking the North Atlantic in the Midwest. Yeah. It's nowhere is this coming from. Yeah. So we're crossing the Manhattan Bridge. Yeah, we were across the Manhattan Bridge. There is a homeless in camp. There's a tent on your left in that little nook. After you've passed the end of the train adjacency. Oh, yeah, yeah. So there's all there's the sort of like cobblestone platform on the right that is a bunch of people. Yes. And then on the left, there is like a little wedge nook and then there's always like a camp in there. There's a guy in there now who's built himself a home and I'm not making a joke here. This guy has impeccable taste. What are we talking? What do we mean? What's the signifier? Is he a camper ability to outfit his homeless digs with interior design skill? Oh, yeah. I mean, I had the thought like that's I'm gonna discover that guy. Yeah. And it would be like a movie made where like I found some homeless cellist. His turn's out. He went to Juilliard that that movie they made with Jamie Foxx and this guy's turns out to be like the next great gay interior designer, like an architectural digest phenomenon. And like I discovered him because of his ambient lighting. Yeah, he has candles lit. Oh, in his tent, which is probably unhealthy for airflow. Given what we've learned. I'm sorry. The Riley Lens say again. Are they Riley Lens? I doubt it. Yankees. You should gift him a Riley Lane. We could as like a peace offering. Dude, he has them lit in like these little buckets that that the the light kind of gets amplified out of. And I, you know, I see I peer in. You'll see this guy. His his like items and affairs are all in order. His bed is like made. Oh, yeah. I mean, I don't know. I'm kind of making some of that. It's a lifestyle. But the candles actually the candles really struck me. Yeah. And he's got multiple candles lit. Hey, son of a boy ad listeners. We'll be right back.

No one else is trying to tear his shit down or steal from him. You think the homeless dude's brawl like you think they ever like they ever get it. I've watched that I've watched that exact place where people are like ripping down other people's tents and shit like that. That is the most open air drug market. That little platform. It's crazy. I've seen just people just like, just sitting cross like it with each other jam and needles into each other. Yeah, just like bro, needle and one on shrimp and the other. Using two needles to pick up a shrimp like chop sticks. You know, you're fucked up when you insert your drugs into the shrimp by accident, just a kabab of shrimp on a needle. Did I eat it? And the guy from the Indian restaurant comes and picks him up, plucks him off the needles. Perfect for Dickie. Yeah, that is a fascinating area. You got to go discover the guy. Have you seen his clothing? Like does he dress well because that is Patagonia? It's right by dime square. So like, I could see them being like kind of skater adjacent. But this morning, there was I saw a bunch of Latino bros posted up there, smoking the the reefer. And then they're right around the corner from Chinatown where all the like uncles are playing guandong or whatever that card game. Have you noticed them all? They're all clustered up playing that card game? You did the thing. You shot a video where you were. But they kind of like dissipated for a while. Now they're like super back. They're back. They're all over the place. Cool. I was I was taking the train home yesterday after we finished recording. And I got hit with like like worst case scenario those. So I think it was we got to like 57th. And there were two dudes that were on the platform that like the doors closed. And they were like right on the door and they were like banging on it. And the guy opened it back up again. And they're like, Oh, thank you so much. Woo. And everyone's kind of like laughing. And they're like, oh, nice. They got on. And then immediately the speaker goes down and they start there. They're hanging from the ceiling. - Fuckin', bro. - Yeah. - They're makin' JBL's too big and too powerful. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I've seen dudes that have JBL's like, strapped across their body like a nuclear warhead. - Like that at like 16 years. - Yeah, this big and they're so fucking loud. - I saw dude with one over the back, like the strap and then he had another one with a key chain on his belt. - Different songs. (laughing) - He's got some around like potty bodies. (laughing) - Oh my God. - But they were going, I've never, I've been on the train where crazy shit happens. I've never seen anything like this. - You've never seen that? - I've seen videos and stuff, but I'm talkin' like. - Oh, yeah, they're hanging from the rafters. - The guy's foot was these clothes to my face. - Yeah, exactly. - And I'm just sitting there just, they're pretty remarkable. (laughing) - Just staring straight ahead. They're like trying to get up in my face and I'm not but I felt like I was in scared straight. - Yeah, just not budging. The guy's right here and I'm just, I've got Bruce Springsteen just blaring in my headphones. (laughing) - They're like doing some sick shit with their hat. - Oh my God, this would take their shoe off and like, it ends up on their foot. - I totally forgot about this. The guy, because they go with the hat move first, the guy goes the hat, he fails three times. And then they do their whole routine. You know, they're there hanging. When they're hanging and shit, it's pretty cool. You gotta admit. But the hat, he fucked up and then they cut the music and like they're just chill on at that point and he looks to his body and he goes, he goes, "Someone's going on with my hat." I don't know. (laughing) - It's you, bro. It's not the gear, bro. (laughing) But I do love like those guys are still like, they're like, did I bomb? Was that bad? (laughing) - It is always weird when they like, get the energy up that much. And then it's, it just abruptly ends and then they're just looking at their phones and being like, you know. And it is, I mean, I don't know. - Just do us the favor of motoring to the next car. Like go between the two cars, so we don't have to see you like without the mask on. - Part of me wanted to be like, I will pay-- - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. - Yeah, I'll pay you to get to go to another car. - Yeah, to beat it. And that was the vibe. That was what the whole train was feeling. - I'm more likely to pay musician first, then somebody who's just asking for money, then somebody who dances, then somebody who's selling candy, least likely a selling candy. - Yeah. - I'm never turning in money to the candy store. - Those are always like small Venezuelan mothers. - Yeah, at gunpoint, they're always like the little kids who are like, oh, please. - Yeah, yeah. - I've had a couple times when I thought about it, thought about getting a Snickers or something. - $8.00 or not yourself when you're hungry? - I had like one of the kids come up to me and say that. - That you weren't, you had the tray of-- - You're not being yourself. - You're not yourself when you're hungry. - You don't want any, you're not gonna give us money. You're not being yourself. - The, you know, the dancing is a little much, especially 'cause it's like, I was watching it and I was like, bro, like, I could do this. Like if I really wanted to, I could hang from the fucking-- - I don't think so, man. - They're just doing pull ups. It's not like they're doing anything crazy. - Can you do pull ups? - I mean, I could do one. - Yeah, but you're also not brave enough to do it. - Well, no, that's what I'm saying is, it's really just a brave one. - Oh, it's a stage right here. - Yeah, it's not really a skill thing. I'm looking around the train and I'm like, there's 10 of us that could do this on this train right now. - I don't know. - We're just choosing not to. - I think this is harder than we think. - No, bro, they, one day, they decided they were like, this is we're gonna have to start dancing on the train. Like, I don't think it was like they were like, I have this gift that I need to share with the world. - I think those guys were winning talent shows at their high school. - You think? - Yeah. - In like break dancing and funky dancing. They weren't that good. Like, they were pretty, I mean, bro, the guy missed that. - You caught a bad show. - I missed the hat three times. - I've seen some good shows. - Yeah, you caught all of them. - I don't want to encourage them. I don't hope they're not listening to this on their pocket speaker, but I think they're pretty good. - They're pretty acrobatic. They also have that weird thing where they're able to like, turn their arm 360 degrees around. - See, I must have got the worst show that it was 'cause I didn't get any of that. - You got the minor leaves. - Yeah, these guys were just doing pull ups pretty much. They always people are like, yeah, he's double jointed. It's like, no, he has no bone. (laughing) His arm just turned his hand like the head of an owl all the way around. I don't understand the physics of that. - Luckily, it's quick. Luckily, they get the vibe. Like, no one's fucking with us. We're gonna go to the next car. 'Cause like, if they were on that for like 10 more minutes, that would have been actually like hell. - Yeah, that is silly. - I had the best seats in the house. Front row backstage passes. Like, I was, they were sitting next to me when they finished. Like, I was pretty, I may as well have been a part of the crew. (laughing) - Just get off with them and just pile off onto the next place. - So brutal. - Yeah, it's not, it's not a lot of fun, but. - Folks, I have to tell you about something I have discovered that has helped me immediately with my hangovers, honestly. - Is this Z-biotics? - Z-biotics. - Yes. - We alcohol, probiotic, drink. It's the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. It was engineered by PhD microbiologists to break down a C-tal-de-hide acid-tal-de-hide. - It helps with hangovers. - An unwanted byproduct of alcohol metabolism.

Do you think that they'll just fade into the background and things like that will not happen? - Probably. - No. - This isn't like realistically, if universal income happened, then what a tank of gas would be $10,000? - Is that true? - People are still gonna have to make money. Like there still has to be margins. - Yeah, but I think that everyone's rich. How are people gonna make money? - I don't know. Do you think universal income will make everyone rich? - I mean, it wasn't Elon Musk talking about universal, like he was saying universal high income, wasn't he? He was pretty much saying we're all gonna be rich. - Yeah, he said stop saving money. - Stop saving friends. - He basically like buy Tesla. - Yeah. - I took that pill a long time ago. (laughing) I've been on that. - Francis doesn't have a shopping addiction. He just has to keep spending. - I'm just predicting the economy. - Yeah. - It's really all it is. - Yeah, predicting the universal income. I finished the Dan Cook doc. It actually gets pretty good. - Cool. - You got to the brother shit? - Yeah, it's pretty insane. I didn't know the brother had all the money in cash. - Yeah, apparently it was in like bags, hidden in like tomato soup jars. - Yeah. - Like a fucking. - Frozen the freezers. - Yeah, like he's in the town burying money. Driving around burying money. - Burying? - Burying money. Who's they? Him and his wife. And his wife was like, I didn't know any of this was happening. And so he was burying money. What do you think it was? He was like, I got an itch to start burying. Obviously it's not his money. - Like a dog with a bone. - Yeah. - What the fuck is wrong with them? - The wife claims to have no, like she's not guilty at all. She pleaded not guilty. And like she says she had no idea any of it happened. But like just like the husband Daryl was selling t-shirts for Dan Cook. And then I didn't know where they started going on these like vacations across the world. And it was like what do you think he started just selling like a shit ton of t-shirts? - Started a cook recoup. I don't, that's the weird thing. It's like I don't really know. 'Cause it's weird 'cause like if you think about Dan Cook, like how big his career was like today. Like I guess so what his brother stole like 13 million dollars from him. If Dan Cook was as big as he was then today, like 13 million dollars would be like a weekend for him. Like he would be making so much fucking money that it would be like that's not. But like the way that they make it seem is like that was pretty much all of his money. - How can you spend 13 million like sneakily? - Well, I think he was, they were just going on a shit ton of vacations. - Yeah. It's crazy to me that knowing how that structure kind of works at least now that there wasn't some agent or money manager or person was the money manager. - Who I guess so, right? - Yeah. - But like I, I don't know if I had a, if my sister. - Yeah. - Somebody would catch on like hey you owe this in commissions. - Well that was the crazy thing was the taxes. Yeah. After all the money he found out was stolen, he was like, "Is there anything else that's going to hurt me that I should know about?" And they were like, "Yeah, you owe six million dollars in taxes." But then I think he ended up getting a break because he paid it all, and it was like all of his money. Like, he couldn't afford it. He paid all the taxes. And then he got like a call from the IRS and they gave it back or something. I was going to say like that should just be levied as prison time against the brother. Yeah. I agree with that. You should have to pay the six million dollars when your brother, when your business manager didn't pay it. Yeah. If you have been negligent on paying your taxes because unknowingly, you were being robbed. Yeah. Why would you be responsible for that? I don't know. I mean, it was crazy like watching the progression of it because it starts out, he's like, he takes like very random amounts of money. So it starts out, it'll be like a $26,000, and it's like a check made out to him and you're like, Dan Cook would never realize that, obviously. And then just had to know where it's like $3 million, a check to Daryl. Wow. That's funny. Fuck. I'm going to watch it. He has bold. Bold of Daryl. Oh, yeah. I think he just hated Dan Cook. Oh, he did? I think he was like, like, resented here. I don't know though. It's weird because like, I guess he was a, I think he was a prison guard. And then he got like his throat slashed in prison and Dan was like, we're going to, I'm going to hide. I'm going to just work for me. Like, this is crazy. You can sell t-shirts for me. It's a pretty important job to give to someone based on like just a very bad injury. Definitely. Like one of your bull, like you're helping out one of your, like, I mean, I guess this is brother, but like, I wouldn't be like, if I had a brother who was in trouble and I wanted to give him a job, I wouldn't be like, all right, you're my manager. Yeah. I wouldn't be like, my cousin just fell down the stairs. So he's my divorce attorney. It's just his one. It is. Somebody's got to help him. Yeah. It's my brother. Yeah. He wasn't qualified to be a prison guard, so I'm going to make him a much harder job. You know, he can count the cells every night. He does lock down. Certainly. He knows how to get in the shit kicked out of him in jail. So like, make him a bodyguard or something. Right? Just have like a driver. A guard in Jaze. Yeah. Like drive a truck. Yeah. Um, wow. That's tough when guys like that get super famous and successful and they feel responsible for the success of like the people around them or even guilty. And you're like, I got a, I got to hire him. I got to let him steal from me. He's my brother. Yeah. Yeah. But I mean, he just took everything and what's cook doing now? He's still touring and he's still doing stand up. Yeah. It seems like he's one of those people that's like obsessed with stand up. Yeah. Like you can tell from the documentary. It's like he's not like, uh, like he's one of those like still, like he's just like obsessed. Dude, I bet he's pretty good. Oh, yeah. I'm not saying his stuff, but I bet you he's pretty fucking good. Well, Drew done. Yeah, opens for him. Very regularly. He says very good. And Drew's very good. Drew's hilarious. Drew's in. He's in part of it. Like he's in like five second clip. Yeah. I was saying doing what? Just, uh, Dan comes on stage at the Mohegan Sanerina. Yeah. And Drew walks off. Yeah. They should let Drew. If he has any sense of comedic timing should also rob Dan. If he has any fucking balls in his sack, you should rob his ass blind. Yeah. That's not a bad idea. The all to you would never see it coming again. Law. You drew. Hey, Drew Boutin wants to say that Dan Cook plays a lot of, uh, like Call of Duty war zone. Like all the time. He's grinding. He's putting his brother's skins on everybody's. Dude, I don't know what happened, Ron. But you mentioned yesterday that I looked thin lean, I said, I didn't say thin. So I went and measured myself at the gym. I knew I was, I had lost like eight pounds since I started keeping a mind to this. Yeah. I don't know what happened, but I weighed myself yesterday, and I've lost 13 pounds. I thought you were about to say 30. And I was like, you know, hospital, I all of a sudden, because it was like very marginal, you know, half a pound, you know, here and there, yeah. And then out of nowhere, there was just this five pound drop where now I'm like, I'm down below. I'm 209 off of 222. And I don't know where to have what happened. I mean, that's five pounds, that's a, that fluctuates daily is 13 pounds. There's not five. Well, but he already lost the eight so I was down to 13 and I thought it was going to take me a long, long time to get below 210. And then all of a sudden, it was just like instant gone. Yeah. It was the gummies, bro. I think it was the sugar. I swear to god. Yeah. It was like a tape. You take a big shit or something before? No. What, what, what have you been doing to lose the weight? Eating super clean, obviously, but I've honestly kind of like forgetting to eat really. I've just been like forgetting to eat meals. I would bet. And yeah, doing a lot of cardio, you know, a lot of walking on the treadmill, watching it, internet, imitation, all and stuff like that. That'll definitely do it. You guys up to date at all? I saw clips from yesterday, Saleem being the drunkest dude of all time, but then Whitney being like, we got to be super positive about him, like tell him everything he does is great, which is like one of the all time, like person to person reads that I've ever seen. Yeah. Like that's fucking brilliant and just shows like such a knowledge of like, I don't know, just like being able to understand how people work and understand understanding of drunk people. Like, as a sober guy, that's awesome by, by what is with a sober guy? No, I mean, he was sober at that point when he was talking a big job about it. It's amazing how the drinking has become such a sort of highlighted part or an obvious part of this year, whereas last year, it really wasn't that, that kind of, as the knuckle theft wasn't like an undercurrent. And yet I was drinking last year, primarily just to calm my nerves, that was all that it was. And they give you like, what did, did you say on like the 18th hole, they gave me, like, I asked him, I asked Whitney to get me a, a, a, a John daily, and it was like straight down. See through it. It wasn't brown. It wasn't lemonade looking. It was just pure, clear, pretty much because he had bet against me with Dave. Yeah. It's hilarious. Yeah. Stuff. Pine to vodka. But I, I thought that that, well, everything I saw from this episode was pretty fucking sick. Seems like big John is having a fucking hell of a tourney, just a lovable guy. Yeah. I will say that Salim's golf swing is the most beautiful golf swing I've ever seen from someone with so little experience playing golf. And it's deeply frustrating to me that my golf swing doesn't look anything like it. Given how much I have played buttery. It's just exactly, you know, every frame of his swing could be a golf logo. Yeah. Yeah. It's like me. I don't know how he figured that out. Like, I've been chasing that he's so drunk that he has like the shoulders of the subway performer. Yeah. He just is. Probably not even. I've been trying to figure this out myself forever. And I can't make it work. And it feels really unnatural. He said he did 90 days sober after the invitational or he saw or I think he's on 88 right now. Yeah. Totally. Yeah. You don't believe him. You don't believe our brother, Salim. I mean, Salim is my brother doesn't seem like it. But I mean, we are, are we called spade spades or are we letting people lie? All right, boys, I got to I got to run unfortunately, okay, where's lunch today, S and P? All right. I'll roll 500. Yeah. Yeah. You ringing the bell. Yeah. Yeah. I need out of five. I got some big launches. All right. Where's your lunch today? Opland. Classy. Nice. What's that? It's a good spot. It's on. Yeah. It's in like grammar. I get lunch today. Yeah. Fuck. Yeah. You should probably launch. You boys are both having lunch today. Yeah. We got lunches. You guys are having both fancy fancy business boy lunches. Yeah. Super fancy. Super business. All right. Thank you guys for list. Oh, Salim's only 24. He's younger than me. Yeah, bro. I didn't know anyone watched. He's born at fucking in the the wake of 9/11. I'm on now. You are a superunk. Yeah. I watched old-ass golf swing. Video games have passed you by me while Salim is stone cold sober for 87 days. Is humiliating? I'm going to be in Baltimore this weekend at the port. Nice. You can get tickets to that Friday Saturday four shows. Go to a temp street oyster house. I will. I'm going to be working on a lot of new stuff. So please come. Pop punk is playing in Athens, Georgia this weekend. Please come to that. The Georgia game. Oh, yeah. It is. Are you going to go? No, I'm coming right back home. No. Would have been cool.
