MBMBaM 811: New At Yeast

The McElroy brothers are not experts, and their advice should never be followed. Travis insists he's a sexpert, but if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it. Also, this show isn't for kids, which I mentioned only so the babies out there will know how cool they are for listening. What's up, you cool baby? What, do you think it's the start of something beautiful? A small quaintant has blossomed, it's rapping into a precious friendship. I could have never seen what was coming for me, hangs at the skate park, hangs by the beach, it's better, it's better with you, it's better with you, it's better, it's better with you. This is true, it's better, it's better with you, it's better with you, it's better with you. Hello everybody, welcome to my brother, my brother and me, an advice show for the Modern Era, get out of the town, get right out of the town with this, how is this possible? Chris and do it, show us, give us your mug, I don't want to show you my mug, I don't want to show you my mug, it's incriminating, it's incriminating, it represents an older part of my brand that I don't necessarily embody anymore, but I like the cost of being so many things. Yeah, well, it may be folks go to maximumfun.org/join, I'll reveal my shameful bug to everyone by the end of the episode, it says four squad on it, I don't know. Someone sent to my PO box a long time ago and I was so humbled by the fact that they made a logo for my fake podcast and it's a night, I like this sort of, what is this like a 12 answer? I like a bigger poor, a 16 answer, even better, I like a bigger poor, I can't even, no, we certainly need to be gotten to, vor apologetics. What's a trevnation to me in the middle is probably the trevn's big dog, wolf, wolf, roon, roon, the heater, big dog, a one-stuff man, if you can't remember it. No, if you can't remember it. If you can't remember it. Even for a second is gone. I'm your sweet baby brother, 30 under 30, media illuminator, sorry, I just turned 39 and so I'm running out of time to hit that 40 under 40 list. Yeah. I'm worried that I don't have the kind of cash that I can't go. I'm just wondering at the blank page before you open up the dirty window, like the sun illuminate the world that you cannot write, reaching for something in the distance. So close, you can almost taste it, release your inhibitions, feel the rain on your skin, no one else can feel it for you. What are we doing? Let it in, everybody, they're all there, it's in there that I've never intelligent before. Yeah. There's a part where like, stared at the blank page before you, we all know it, right? Well, the open up or dirty, why is your window so dirty Natasha? That's crazy. Listen. When you hit the, when the, let the sun illuminate everybody's kind of looking at their friends like, do you know the sun illuminate the world that you cannot do for something in the distance. All right. It's week two of max fund drive, maximumfund.org/joinsupport the art and all to see love. And I'm living in my power. Sure. I'm living in my power for, I don't, I don't know what star is in proto grade in the cosmos. Uh huh. That has lent you this power, but there is an apotheosis that's happened that is shining directly a beam of pure energy right now on Travis that is making anything possible for you. People said, I don't know about you, but I feel good because within the last month, I would say, I called, I said, I called to the universe and said, I think it's time for a Phantom reboot. Yep. And within a 28 day span, crazy. It was announced that there's a Phantom TV series in production. Yeah. Who's doing it? Who? That stuff doesn't matter. You know, fucking Billy Zane's going to roll up like into pilot. I want to say, Travis, do you want to be in this TV show? Oh my God. Please. No. Or are we going to burn it on this? No, here's what I'm saying. We're in an increasingly fractured media environment. There's not going to be a lot of engagement on Phantom based social media posts. Correct. And every fan of social media posts degraded into without Travis McAroyd. There is no Phantom. Yeah. Then I think we, I think maybe, we can maybe get Travis in this. You're saying we could flood the zone in a cool way. In a cool way. In a cool way. Brought to you by Travis McAroyd. Travis McAroyd. Yeah. Unless, until they get, I mean, here's what I'm thinking. Travis, like, the shop owner that, you know, to me, like, they walk past his shop and he wastes from inside the shop. Like, I'm pretty happy if there's a shot where they talk about, like, if there's a map even, and you see a country called Trave Nation. Right. I'm fine with that. I wouldn't be. That would be good. That would be good. The idea would be, of course, Travis is trying to smuggle 20 to 30 kilos of premium, premium, columbium, coca, and then the phantom slams evil and Travis, like, gets freed up by the phantom. I always say murder. Murder by the phantom. As you can see, already has the whole costume and the whole thing already lined out. Do you guys think it was weird that the phantom was one of the most sort of fervent soldiers in Ronald Reagan's war on drugs? I thought that that was a crazy way for him to sort of expend his energy. I kind of feel like he was already in a war on drugs. And then Ronald Reagan was like, that's a great idea. Let me get up on that. Yeah. I'm going to do that too, Nancy, Nancy, Ducy and P.S.A.s. Call the guy, listen, I want to say first, I'm sorry, Travis, because sometimes you bring stuff to the intro and I'm like, this is no one knows what the fuck you're talking about. The phantom, that's an ancient old crusty S.I.P. that no one's going to touch with a 100 pole. And then within 28 calendar days, 20 business days rounded up. We had the announcement, Travis, that's crazy. You're more plugged in than I am and I'm sorry for doubting you. I just know a lot about trash TV. I know what people want. What's next? What's next? Is it time to see? Like, look at the pulse. Well, my next wish is that they bring back chakotakas. That's not really a media property. Oh, dude. Just say, that feels, that feels right. That feels like by the end of May, we're going to have a chakotako announcement. That feels right. It feels like the consciousness is ready, like the last five years. Oh, we're ready. We're ready. Bring back chakotakas. In Jason Robert Brown's hip musical, they stop making chakotakas. It's about Jason Robert Brown's the last five years is about the, oh, I see a production of chakotakas. That's great. That's great. Yeah. We've got chakotakas for every type of person out there. The max fund drive. Can we circle back to that real quick? Please. Yeah. It's time we come to you once a year and we say, hey, do you like the stuff we make? Because we like you. We like making it for you. If you like the stuff we make, could you help us make it just just a little bit help. Five bucks a month. If you could do that for us, we would really appreciate it. You get a maximum fund.org/join. You say, hey, I got five bucks. I help make these shows, makes these shows possible. Now, what do they get in return, guys? That's the question for you. They get just a shit ton of bokeh, man. More bokeh than you can consume in your lifetime. More bacon than that. More bokeh than the pan can handle. Absolutely. We're talking about every show on the network. Hey, stop for a second. Two times this past week, I said bokeh to civilians. No, we're like, you gotta stop my man. What do you mean? It was rough. Twice. You know what I mean? Friends. Yeah. Colleagues. And I said bokeh. And they had to pull over the van and say, what is bokeh? Now, what does this mean? Listen. If you can kick in five bucks a month to us and the Max Fund network, you're going to get access to hundreds of hours of bonus content for all the shows, for the, what, 15, there's our 15th Max Fund drive, I think, from a bin bam. This year we did a voice acting masterclass with Janet Varney to try and find out why we don't get cast and stuff anymore. But we've done all kinds of stuff. Play those raves. She was just, she, she will say guys, surprising we frick. Yeah. It's cronarily right over the place. It's cronarily cronarily cronarily cronarily cronarily cronarily cronarily. She did not pull her butt. Yeah. Told us what we needed to hear. I didn't know she had been harboring that against us this whole time, but it was nice to sort of, I don't know, squash all that beef. We're talking Play Dose Rafe. We're talking Pranky Doodle Dandy. We're talking about that episode of that we rerecorded the blue carpet premiere of the Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Musical with Matt Doyle and us reading each other's, but it's very high concept. Hundreds of hours. Hundreds of hours of bonus content. There's other pledge levels that you can join at and you'll get different rewards for doing that. about those later. But seriously, it's our 15th max fund drive. And the reason it's our 15th max fund drive is because we've been doing this for super long because you all continue to support it. So please, please help us out. Don't just assume that someone else will do it because, you know, the podcast market is a challenging one in the current space. We're fighting tooth and nail out here. So if you enjoy our show, help be responsible for its existence. Truly full stop by going to maximumfund.org/join, please. When you're listening to this, if you're listening this on Monday on Tuesday's Clubhouse stream, as part of max fund drive, I will be doing a book report on season two of Yellowstone. Yes. It's an experience. It's a thing. I've heard, I've heard rumor of a FBI investigation, sort of only murders murder board. Yeah. A real flow charge of depression within the next calendar year. Here we go. We'll be announced. A live action remake of Don Blues, Anastasia. Oh, that's, that's so good. Did it feels like it might be, I'm like looking for the, can I, can I be so bold as I say? I would really be into an all dogs go to heaven that is indeed all dogs. Yeah. Real dogs this time. Real dogs, real dogs, really dying. No, that's what Justin Justin's got to see real dogs dying. And their ghosts go up to heaven. Like, gotta see it. Like in that, you know, the dog's life movie, that they were like, yeah, there was some animal rights issues. Yeah, they didn't like that one so much. Hey, how about a question. I think her max fund drive, we should answer all six questions on the question. Oh my god. It's never been done before. My partner and I recently moved. Our new place is better than our old one in every way, except that we're in a different city. And thus have a new primary postal person. We had a great relationship with our old male lady. Terrible. Why would you say that about her? We get a lot of, it's agist is what it is. Old male lady is like, wow, homie. Did you have a great relationship? Our postal professional. Did you have a great relationship with Janet, Janet, a person, Janet Varnie, postal one, a much a mature postal worker. We got, we got a lot of packages. So she gave us her phone. So she could meet her mid route. To get packages that need signing when we weren't home that day or hold for when we would be you her phone. I bet they meant phone number number. Okay, that makes a log pass. We get my phone and wait for the message. Then get dropped. Here's your phone. I'll be back when I'm done with my route. This is an accountability thing. Sometimes I get tired. I am an old old old lady. But if I know my phone's here, I'll make my way back for you. Get my steps in for me. I'm not doing got enough as a postal worker. My Pikachu, please. Did you say this, this person saying meet her mid route as though it's like, hey, Dan, I got a hot one for you. Are you at home? No, no, no, sorry. Where are you at? Where are you at? It's like, I'm on the sheets. I'm on the sheets on 17th. Let me roll up. Let me roll up. If you roll up on there, I'll get my package from you. Question asker, I know I'm trying to relate in a way that I can make. It's just this is a, this is a sort of rhetorical puzzle. I'm enjoying unwrapping it. I'm going to text you like I'm on main app moving west. I'm going to get your phone. I'm going to drop a pen. I'm going to give this back to you. Oh, I see. And that's you all the way. It's a typo. It's supposed to be drug dealer. No, I'm supposed to work out. I never like, I don't get exciting mail as much anymore, so I don't, I don't get excited about opening it. If I had to go find it. Hell yeah, dude, I'll get more excited about that fucking, you know, lands-in catalog or chubby's catalog or just any sort of. My problem is always when the poster worker delivers the mail, but then also wants to sit with me while I open it. And it happens if I have any snacks and watch Rick and Morty. Yeah. Or if I laugh at a letter I got, he'll be like, pass it. And I'm like, dude, it's that's a federal offense. You can't actually ask to read my mail. So let's, what was about to get to the question. Here it comes. You ready? Yeah. I started with our new mail guy on the wrong foot. I keep forgetting to close our mailbox and forget the keys hanging on the lock. This has happened four times and every time he brings it over and records a little, hey, be careful. Heads up message on our doorbell. Then leaves it near our door. How can I salvage this relationship with my mail man and get on good terms enough that I can have back what I've lost. That's from forgetful and packageful in Seattle. I'll give you my hot take. Well, you guys formulate something because I've been a lot on computer so I feel like I can solve these things faster. In my opinion, you maybe are worried that this mail person is going to see you as you are because my friend, you did leave the keys in the mailbox. You know, like you did need a little bit of help and it's okay that you were that person then, you know, and if the mail person won't let you evolve, they won't let you grow over time. You got a lot on your plate. If you do a ranking of high-stress situations that add your stress levels moving way up there near death of a loved one. Okay. You got a lot going on. Let your mail person boo you appreciate this gift because that could be a real foundation being needed and allowing someone to need you. That's our Justin. I agree. My take was let yourself be a project for this mail carrier. Right. Oh, I'm people do love that. Well, also giving them like treats because everyone like you gotta have got a little time to time never goes astray. Not just one butterscotch though. I'm not going to just leave a butter set. Maybe if I put a stamp on it and write in really letters for you from me from time to time clearly implies an ongoing sit. Travis. This is not every day a single butterscotch. It's a it's a I'd travel. It's like not everything's a multi-scoture job. Some things is a one-scoture. Like if I ask my kids to go get my socks from the din, you know, that's a one-scoture. If I ask my to get a stop. Sydney. For my wife. I need to stay home from Harmony House today to darn my socks because the kids, you know, that's that's a multi-scoture. I'm going to have to give her four to five butterscotches to get that done. No problem. Yeah. I see. Mail carriers. I assume the scotch I'm giving them is a tip. I assume that they are being paid handsomely in butterscotches by the United States government. They can only accept butterscotches. And if every if every house gives them one butterscotch a day, that's a lot of butterscotch. That's too much butterscotch. That's true. You've got very enough with all that fucking butterscotch. And you don't want to do it every day. I'm ready to respect because then they'll come to expect it. You want to do it at random intervals. Yeah. And maybe one day throw a red hot in there and they're like, oh, I didn't want a dynamic candy. And then the next day you're back to butterscotch and it makes the butterscotch all the better. I think it's a good mantra for a lot of different people. And I'll go ahead and guess a lot of people who maybe listen to our program and share in some of our anxieties, our sensitivities that just because you made a mistake doesn't mean someone's mad at you. It doesn't mean that people are mad at you just because you made a little mistake. Four times. Four times. The mail person I don't think is materially sort of going to be affected if your mail is taken by someone else. Obviously, it's not great. But it's not like they're going to be like, oh, curse you. You made a mistake and they try to help you. They're not probably not mad. They can't. They can't have that kind of relationship going with their whole route where they're just mad. If I went in for an organ transplant and then as I was leaving the hospital, I let someone mug me and steal that organ out of my chest. The surgeon is going to be pissed. I guess there is a certain amount of like I carried that Chubby's catalog on my back for 15 blocks. And it was a thick one. It was the fall special. You would think summertime is when Chubby's makes their bank with that short those shorts are. No man. They got to move that product at the end of the summer. They got to move it at the end. That is a three pound Chubby's catalog that I carried 15 blocks for your own grateful ass. No, I don't still don't think they're going to be mad at you. It's probably I don't know that they're mad at you, but I think four times you've recently moved in and that time four times left your key. They have formulated a separate opinion of you of being very forgetful and you can play that up and be whimsical and maybe leave a sandwich in the letter box and put your mail in your lunch box. And then when they see it, you're like, oh, what was I thinking? And now you're like a comical, you're a character in their life to salvage this thing. If you really are invested in salvaging it, you need to show yourself to your new mail carrier, being forgetful in other disciplines in your life so that he knows it's not just him that you're just not just ignoring him. A lowly mail guy. Sorry, your solution is to submit the opinion. I'm saying next time your mail carrier comes around, when you know they're coming around, maybe you slip in there too. They're on the bottom of their vehicle. So you know when they're about to roll up and then you go outside and you open up all your car doors and then you go back inside. You leave the garage door open and your front door open and just a lot of doors open. And then when they're like, "Hey man, you left all your doors open." Then they'll know it's not just me. They're not just doing me. - You used to do one shoe on one shoe off. - This is also a good rule when starting a job. Don't give 100% at your job. Always give like 50% when you start a new job. And then one day start giving like 70% and everyone's like, "Whoa, whoa." - This guy's really stepping up. 'Cause if you always give 100%, you got nowhere to go from there. - Oh, you got a 50%. - You save 100% until you can show up with the big spiky blonde wig and then the boss is like, "Guys, we're not meeting our annual quarterly goals." And you go like, "Brah!" And you do Super Saiyan and then you go out and you know, fire off those mail champ mailers or whatever. - That's actually the thing. - So you get 50% to your mail carrier and then start getting 75% in your mail carriers like, "Wow, they really improved their game. "They must have been taking some ginkgo below "but something 'cause they're remembering everything. "They're so on it." And they're gonna be so impressed with you that they're gonna give you the most improved mail accepting person award and it's gonna be incredible. - Can I suggest one other plan? And if this, I don't want it to be like normal where we'll do jokes about it. If it's a bad plan, you guys should tell me. - Okay, but if you forget the keys one more time. - Just one. - Just one time. - And then when they bring 'em to you, you say, "Congratulations, you passed. "I'm gonna look 'em for somebody I can trust "and I think that somebody is you." And then you start closing the door and you say, "Stay by the phone." (laughing) - Dude, "Stay by the phone" is such a powerful conversation that you can deploy in so many different situations. - I think that what you do is you give 'em a "Stay by the phone." - Yeah. - You don't see 'em again for several weeks. And then the next time you see 'em, you say, "We called." - Yeah. - "We called." - I told you. - I told you. - "Stay by the phone." 'Cause if you see them, they're not by the phone. So at some point they've left the phone, right? So you have to assume that you're hanging up your phone as they deliver the man. I'm like, "I trust you." - "This is fucking going out!" What are you talking about? - I guess someone doesn't want to join the men in black. (laughing) - That's actually a good idea. It sounds like it probably work. - Yeah, men in black sounds like a lot of work. Is that what you mean? 'Cause I wouldn't want to do it. It sounds like a high-stress job. - Yeah. - I recently started a new job. And while I don't expect to make-- - Well, we are not on pace for six questions, dude. Not even close to on pace. - Well, that certainly helps. - You gotta really help. - That certainly helps. - It's coaching. But then more time to talk about how we don't have enough time. - This is a timeout. This is a coaching. An open coaching. - It was an open coaching job. Listen, I already cut a plan segment where I was going to read the track list for the new Muppets Mayhem rollercoaster ride. That segment's already being cut. - Can you blaze through it? 'Cause I am deeply. I do kind of want to. - No, I don't. - It's moving right around me. - There's a lot of joke with the problem with the segment. The reason it was cut is that I don't have a joke. I just wanted to just talk to you about the track box. - Do you have a big box on your desk or something big white box? I'm seeing a big white box. - Yes, you're right, Griffin. I'll move faster. I will not move into this. I'm not going to pull over the wheel and tell you the whole track list. - Let's make a rainbow connection right now with the track list. - No, what we're going to do, I'm going to interspersed them throughout the show. It's a momentum builder. Song too. - Cool. - By the electric mayhem. That's your problem. - Holy shit, dude. By blur, by the electric mayhem. - Yeah, actually, you know what? I could probably spot you with a clip. I could probably spot you a clip. There's a clips already. - Error. - Song too, that's your first one. - We don't have to include. I thought that would be the muppet's doing it, but it was, in fact, just a record. - It's just blur, dude. - By blur, so we will get copyright stricken for that. You didn't hear it. - Maximum fun, that also has joined. Help us fend off blur and their lawyers. - They got that. - I think there's some great bonus content. - Blur has got that guerrilla's money again. They're gonna be tough to beat. I don't think that we can stand against them right now, but song too, that's your first treat. Okay, I recently started a new job, and while I typically don't expect to make new friends with my coworkers outside of work, it turns out, I got a lot in common with one of my team members. We both like D&D, we both like to make clothes. She even offered to sell me one of her used sewing machines. There's just one problem. We have the same first name. I'm interested in getting to know this person, but I'm worried that our other co-workers will boil down our budding friendship to us, just having the same name. Is there any way to get ahead of this? Or is there something I can do when they inevitably comment on it? I feel like I can only awkwardly laugh myself out of so many conversations in life, and that's from befriending it for them. - You got to stop your screen share. You are showing us the most strung out member of (laughing) from the pitch band, and it's truly bumming me out. - Oh, I don't know that one's name, but he looked really like he was having a really, really tough year. - It's, I mean, just to get it out of the way, don't let the fact that people might comment about having the same name, stop you from making any friend. - As an adult, the chances of fighting a new friend. - The chances of fighting a new friend. - Yeah, don't blow it. - Don't blow this for us. - We need this. - I'm so curious. - What does it feel like to make that connection as an adult? Don't blow it. - Don't blow it. You know, I do a little bit. I'm a little bit worried about the situation because I don't feel like the question asker is really understanding the issue, right? - Yeah. - There is someone at their new workplace that has the same name as them and many of the same interests. - Yeah. - You need to start, you need to start thinking about your brand. Like right now, let's say Julie. Is that fair, Julie? - Yep. - If the Julie brand is like, it's already being pretty much monopolized and you're not doing anything to take the brand in a bold new direction. - You always have to innovate. You have to be innovating always. - Is this a economy? - You may have to accept that you can't handle the brand. Maybe you need to rename. Maybe you need to drop the vowels from your name. - Well, drop the vowels. - Julie, I think that's just JL is left. - Oh. - Sorry, Travis, say it again. - JL. - Here comes JL. - Oh. - JL feels fucking great too. - It does feel good. - It feels good, right? That's what you have to be willing to innovate. JL, what's JL about? - It doesn't matter. - What's different? - It's new, it's today. - It's hip, it's now. It's not labels. - Now, ooh. - If you can figure out a way to be complimentary but separate from the new Julie, right? Are you saying JL, a Julie? - JL. - Julie, Julie, and you're like a JL of the other Julie? - JL X Julie. - Yeah. - A crossover event, right? - Because you don't have, you're brand can I handle a crossover with Julie right now? - Not right now. - Not right now. - No, you got to work your way up too. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - You want people to get excited when this drops. - Yeah, exactly. - When JL has to be about something else. - You got to have the scent ready to deploy. You got to have the scent ready to deploy. You need the cross media sort of like Burger King partnership JL X Julie. - Maybe you do a verse on a Julie track, right? - Yes. - And people lose it. Feature in JL. - JL. - The fuck out, you got JL on the track, right? It's gonna blow people's mouth. - It's gonna blow up. - And at that point you've raised both of your standings in the beginning of the day. - Check this out. - It may be a staged beef. - Okay. - Julie likes D&D. JL D or D. - Okay. - Pathfinder. - You know what I mean? Why are we? Huh. Julie likes to make clothes. JL. - You didn't have one for that one. - I was hoping for a DMV like you had. - Maybe I was hoping for once, that just for once. - Just for once, you guys would do, would help. - You don't wanna do it, you yell at me. - You yell at us when we steal your guys slime. - That's the show. - Yeah. - That's the show. - Griffin, that was a great limb reference. - Thanks. - Thank you. This is I think gonna be fine. I think that before you become good friends, this is the subtext of our answers is this will be fine. And it's not funny, but like if people say, oh, you both are named Julie, that's crazy. They're probably not gonna do it every time you two are in the same, here come the Julie's. - Although they did do that shit on West Wing. And that's probably for those guys. - All you gotta do is if somebody's like, oh, you're both named Julie, you just go, oh yeah, great observation, great observation. - Enjoy being alone. Enjoy not having any friends in this office. I'm the only fucking one who does. So go ahead and say your mean shit about our names. - Do you guys feel as you're saying this, like these are the words of a, below it all, remember, like do you think this is the, - If someone's giving you a hard time about making an adult friendship. - Yeah. - It's because they're jealous. - Yeah. - Every opportunity to brand. - That you miss is a little bit of your life that you've let slip away. 'Cause if you're not branding, what are you doing? - Yeah. - What do we leave behind if not a brand? - Griffith. - Thank you. - I think Hamilton said that. - A full wrench. - A full wrench. - This little brand of the road. (laughs) What do we leave for-- - Brand is a garden. We talked about the Max Fun Drive briefly earlier on, but I wanted it to say right now. Real quick, the short version is, if you go to maximumfun.org/join, right, then you're on Easy Street. Yeah. That's where you can go and say, "Hey, I can pledge five or ten or twenty bucks a month to the shows that I love on this podcasting network and the creators on the network." And in the internet landscape, one of the things we've been doing this now for a decade and a half, and the way that we're able to get information out to people has drastically changed in that time, there's less. Thank you, Elon. Thank you. Thank you, Elon for being here. Yeah. Thank you, Elon. We're fucking it all up in so many ways. And so, like, we're not going to get a lot of chances to remind you, like this episode is going to come out on Monday. And then there's not going to be another-- And then still get about us until Monday again. That's fine. If that's the way you want this relationship to go, we're not going to grouse about it. Yeah. We're fine with that. But we're not going to get a chance to remind you before the Max Fund Drive ends through my brother and my brother and me again. And so, if you're considering it, if you're like, "Listen, I love my brother and my brother and me. I've been listening for years. I'm ready to support. Go right now, maximumfun.org/join. Don't wait. Or it's going to slip right out of your brain. There's a lot of other stuff going on. You've got that test tomorrow. Don't forget about that. Yes. For five bucks a month, that's the price of one gallon of gasoline. For five bucks a month, you get access to hundreds of hours of bonus content. This year, we did the Janet Varney Acting Master class. We did another episode of Cousinverse, where five of our six kids planned a one-shot RPG for us to go through, which is fully, fully wild. I'm wonderful. We watched The Mummy, which was only Rachel's second, Brandon Frazier movie, she had a scene before. Yeah. That's a wild play anyway. What's the spoiler? What's the rating? Um, a fun, hugely problematic romp, a fun, wee, cowboy romp, yay, in the desert. So such a rough ride in 2026. Oh, I get it now. Okay. All right. Restrapping. Let's be ready. Teresa and I discussed Zombies One, the Disney Channel original movie. Holy shit. Which was Teresa's first Disney Channel original movie. So many gaps in the cultural knowledge, just without a cable. I started with under wraps speaking of The Mummy. And so I've come at it with all of the content leading up to it. And along those same lines, Griffin, I would say an hour and a half of nuanced discussion of the implications of Zombies. Yeah. That's, there's a lot of conversation topics that come out of anyone that fucking, uh, rank with aircon, you got a, you got to sit down, you got to talk to your family after this. You got to have those hard conversations. Good cloning movie, starring the youngest Lauren's brother. Yeah. No one can remember. I don't need to tell you that the media landscape is difficult and ever changing. And sometimes we have advertisers and sometimes we don't, you know, sometimes we have the same four advertisers, four years and years and years. And those four advertisers are absolutely right or die. We love it. We love them two pieces. And a lot of the other advertisers went to the famous show, but that being said, louded though we are for advertising deliveries, it simply doesn't pay the bills. It really is not that much money. We really get our, our, the lion's share of, uh, of our income from, from you all. People fall off over time, you know, credit card numbers change. People decide that they, people think we suck now and they cancel stuff. But if you've been listed for a while and you are not a member. Oh, man. Why not? I hate these idiots. I hate these idiots. If you've been listed for a while, you, uh, you know, want us kick in, support the show, five, ten bucks a month. We'd really appreciate it. Go to maximumfund.org/join. genuinely. Thank you so much. Yeah. And if you have enjoyed the like YouTube stuff we've been doing video clips, we posed all of the stuff that we've added, you know, all the streams, all that stuff, it's because of your support. We couldn't do that stuff without you. We've hired people to help us with that. We have a team gang for real. We're small business owners. Thanks to you. So I guess we don't just take your, we don't just take your money and buy an Xbox with it. No. We can buy an Xbox. I didn't even do that. I do that with my other earnings, for my babysitting businesses that I run, the lawnmowing that I do. But for the rest of it, we like hire staff and buy new equipment and try to make the show look and sound good. So, maxonefund.org/join, you go there, you pick the shows, you listen to your money, some of it goes to max fund to help with the administrative side of things that we don't know how to do. And they've been doing for a long time and are extremely good at. And the rest of it just goes to the shows that you listen to. Five bucks a month gets you all the bonus content. Ten bucks a month gets you a really nice enamel key chain customized for the show of you're choosing. There's other ones. Boren to be wild. Boren to be wild. The electric mayhem versus Camilla the chicken. I like that. Yeah. That's going to be funny too. Yeah. Yeah. They're going to fight. So, even if you could just do five bucks a month, truly, that is where I think a bulk of our support comes in and it is what helps us, helps us keep doing this thing. So, maxonefund.org/join is going to be one of our last chances to talk to you about it. So, if you're thinking about doing it, please, please, please do it. Okay. Fine, you win. I'm going to share the brush that increases desire or at least I'm going to tell it about you. Wow. If you are someone that is a listener of my brother, my brother, and me, and you join up during the maxonefund drive, I'm going to be whispering your name into the brush. Well, holy shit. During livestreams. Holy shit. This week, if there's ever been a better incentive to become a member of this beautiful network, I don't know what it is. Go to maxonefund.org/join right now and I will whisper your name into the brush that increases desire live before your very eyes. Honoured, I'll watch. We're just not getting through six questions. We've got an exciting delivery on the desk right now. Holy shit, dude. Holy shit. Yeah. This is a box. This is a large box that I received in our, my PO box, PO box, you're really great in it. Honey, it's in West Virginia, two, five, seven, oh, four. You're snuggling it. This is the box label accurate. The box label says, trick or treat with Garfield. This is the note that I received. Hi boys, longtime listener since 2015, first time mailer of definitely haunted dolls. When you see her go understand, she's been traveling around with me new in box through at least four different moves. I've been meaning to ship her for ages. I finally found a box perfect for it. So here she is. Maybe the Garfield box is a misleading thing. I don't know. Can you open this bad boy yet? It's been sitting on a shelf. I've been waiting for an opportunity and the max fun drive is such an opportunity. I finally found a box for her. If I could interrupt Justin real quick. Oh, yeah, there's only two sentences left. Sure. I noticed above your right shoulder, I believe. I was clearly being ironic, Travis, clearly I didn't want to be interrupted. by a crocheted count donut is the brush that increases desire? I see no. Okay. So she's in your hands now. Take care of her. Steph D. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. First into the void in PA. I have no idea what's going on in here. I'm not 100% sure what Garfield's pronouns are, but it does sound like just based on sort of context clue. Maybe it's normal. No one Garfield's pronouns are. Yeah. Yeah. Garfield. Do you think it's because Justin got the brush that increases desires? That's why they're making the phantom reboot. It's possible that you guys fucking worked together on this. Okay. And I had no part in it. Here we go. So I'm opening the box. I'm gonna is there a smell? That's a smell. It's like the smell. There's always a smell. That's it goes like a smell. It's transported. Yeah. That goes comes out hot and fast. It's pressurized. We have some really nice wrapping paper. I'm going to try to remove. Man, I hope it's not a like a trap. Be crazy to get that on camera. Oh gosh. Okay. You know what? Who's in there? Okay. That's just paper and oh yeah. For sure. Wait, but there's no hold on. Wait. There is something going on with Garfield. There's something going on with that doll that I don't. Oh my gosh. That feels custom exciting. This is exciting. Wow. This is really exciting. We got a little trick-or-treat bag. That's cute. A little trick-or-treat bag. That's really cute actually. No Holy Stand. That's incredible. The doll seems aftermarket juice. I'll be honest. No dude. The doll's not. It's Oh my god. Down beauty blogget. I can't see the face. I need the face. So I have a hair net on. I think that's packaging material. So what we're looking at right now, folks listening at home is a child, the little doll child that is wearing a Garfield suit. So it's like Garfield, yeah. Yeah. Oh wow. And the child is cheesing so hard like it's just been told as soon as they get a picture with the smile, you can take it off. But it also looks like while it was going through R&D, a focus group was like, Can you make the eyes? - Dead or eyes, dead or eyes, dead or eyes, dead or dead or dead. - Right, it's mama! - No! - Now if you guys are ready to have some Halloween fun, dude. - Oh! - Why? - Was it good like that? It's so much better like that you put the Garfield eyes on it. - It's not to scale at all. - It's not to scale even a little bit, but that's okay. The child's having a great time. He's got, he's super dumpy, which I imagine is maybe just all the fun sized candy bars. stuff inside the suit with him, which is crazy. A specific dumpiness, too. A huge sort of bottle-shaped dumpiness. Is there a tail? I'm trying to figure out how to displace it. Yeah, I mean, this guy's a permanent fixture, I imagine. Oh, yeah, he's going to get right. You put him next to Frisch's big boy and the brush that increases desires. And you're not so weak. Why does the freshman going to do that? I guess my question is, why is the mask so big and chunky? Yeah. Listen, I don't think I can it's hard to you're you're trying to beauty. It's like it's it's porcelain. It's like it's really hard and heavy. It's like they had the mask first and crafted the rest of the idea around it. The sound actually that the mask makes touching the child's doll face is sounds really good. Can you give us that just a couple of times? Listen, because it sounds fucking get it right up. We'll get it clean. Because it's not molded to it. Travis don't talk. It's too heavy for the elastic. Like this is naturally. It's sort of sagging. He'll be fine. He's sagging. Hearse will watch out for him. That's awesome. That's awesome. Wow. This is a beautiful piece. Thank you. Beautiful. I'm saying this is apparent. This is actually very Halloween realistic. Got like a black long sleeve thermal and some sweat bags. It's going to be sweating. They're fucking ass off. I don't care what the weather is outside. They're wearing a bare skin rug. Yeah. Yeah. No good. No good. Thank you so much. But extremely good. But also very good. I just gotta I'll look at the instructions later. We'll have it properly mounted. I feel like I need to say for your sake. Do not let this kick off a wave of you saying, well, I've got a haunted doll for Justin. Unless it's a fucking stone cold heater like this. Really take a look at that doll because sometimes we get sent dolls out of place for them. I'll find a place for them. No problem. That's a good problem. I have another question. Yeah. This is an advice show and I feel like sometimes with this out of that. I work with yeast. But most of my friends are not in the yeast community. Recently my friends have started referring to me as the yeast guy and telling me about any yeast related things that come across. I'm still pretty new at yeast work. Sorry. Oh, no. Wait. This is really good. And so I have a bit of imposter syndrome at being given this title. How should I best accept and embrace my new identity as the yeast guy. And this is from the yeast guy. That's a good start. That's a good start. That is a good start owning a start. Maybe you could start talking about like the yeast games and yeastables and your boss, Mr. Yeast. And just see Mr. Yeast. How long you can keep that up before they're like, this sounds like Mr. Beat. You're like, yeah, Mr. Yeast today said he would give away like a million dollars to the first 100 yeast that stayed alive. Yeah. And then they're like, that sounds like something Mr. Beast would do. And you're like, different brands, different brands. Probably the best people at like making jokes about Mr. Beast that I know of. Wow. I don't think any. But yeah, I don't think like we do a lot of actually very good. New category. I just think we make a lot of very good Mr. Beast jokes. That I don't feel like our audience. I think our audience is uniquely positioned to not enjoy. Like the demographic was speaking. Yeah. Like I do to my life has been exposed to so much Mr. Beasts that I feel like I could do a pretty good five to 10 on on Beast stuff. Travis is the same right there. I was like, so good. It's really good. But we also, I mean, it's the same reason we are all like routinely pitching blippy gags to crickets. Just absolutely no one because it's tough. It's tough. What do you got there? The bag is labeled accessory package. This is how they used to do things kids. People used to be professionals. That's awesome. The nice thing is you one should not have imposter syndrome when they know any amount of stuff while the people talking to them know zero amount of about that stuff. Right? You are inherently an expert above them. Your friends who know nothing about yeast who are telling you about yeast because they're excited they found out a single fact about yeast. Aren't judging you that you don't know more about yeast than they think you do. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah. But on the other hand, Travis, this person is admittedly new to yeastwork. We got to start being careful about imposter syndrome folks. Oh wow. Oh wow. Now listen, listen, listen. Own it. If you have imposter syndrome about something because people think you know way more about it than you actually do, that's not imposter syndrome. Yeah. That's true. That is a that is a discrepancy of information. Right? Yeah. You get imposter syndrome. It's not you know fault for thinking much. You get imposter syndrome about things that you are an expert in. Like yeah. Recently, I've been taking on some new challenges and I've been thinking I've been really doubting myself. And these are untested things. Things I haven't tried before. Right? I've been really doubted myself. And I thought, man, I got imposter syndrome. And then later I rethought that. And I had to rephrase it and say, you don't have imposter syndrome. You have regular wondering if you're going to fuck up or not. That's just a normal amount of wondering that. I think you have a very normal amount of worrying. Someone's going to ask you a question about East. And you look like an asshole. And that's like, that's not imposter syndrome. That's just being alive. That's like a normal part of being alive. As someone who takes on a lot of new hobbies constantly. I've started reintroducing some, um, I would say archaic terminology to give us a level betwixt novice and expert journeyman journeyman is great. I like journeyman a lot. And even that's right. I'm still learning. I love that. Yeah. I can't answer all your questions. I know more than I did on my first day. I'm no longer a novice. But I'm not an expert. I'm a journeyman. Did you guys have any COVID hobbies that you kind of like got into with someone else? And then like they kept going with it and you fell off or like they were already an expert and you came to them like, Hey, I want to get into your thing. And then you fell off immediately because that's just how we're built. And it was COVID. And we were all trying a lot of stuff. And I would check in with you like, Hey, how's it going with that? And you say I did stop. It's boring. I would say absolutely. If I am always the other person. Yes. I know exactly what you're talking about. Yeah. Yeah, or flip, flip it. It happens with my children. Well, they were inadvertently shame me by saying like, Hey, do you still do blank hobby that I haven't touched in six months because I've been hobbies further along now? Uh-huh. Or they'll say like, when are you going to play Stardew Valley again? You're always playing that beaver game, which is timberborne. Or like what happened to the video store game? And I'm like, Oh, I lost interest in that. And I can only play one video game at a time because of my brain disease. Sure. Daddy, make me some hard candy. I haven't done that shit. I don't like four years. Dot asked me the other day. Dot said, my seat's your old. Why do you have so many unfinished projects? Yeah. That's a great question, Dotty. Absolutely. And I said, well, the fun's not in finishing them. The fun is in chasing the interest as long as it exists. And she said, yeah, there's just a lot of stuff around the house. Yeah, man. Yeah. You're right. You are right. I think Travis, the next time you got to come back and say, I don't know, Dotty's because some of my unfinished projects are real chatty. Wow. Yeah. I'm finished projects got a lot of attitude about a lot of trying to make a chocolate milk. I'm trying to drink my chocolate milk dot. No, I, no, I'm making your chocolate milk chocolate milk. You're slipping out of big or freshening chocolate milk. While your daughter tries to get rid, I get it. Okay. Let's finish as medicine. I will. I will tell you guys, I have the legitimate hardest one of these to come back from. And I would love, I would still love your advice on this. Sure. Sure. I did Taekwondo for a year. A big one. We all knew that was a big one. It was a big one. That was in Zagonum. So that would have been 2017. 2017. 2017. Okay. So I did Taekwondo for a year. Kind of lost interest. Picked it up a couple of years later with Charlie. And we did it for a couple of years. And I became a blue belt in Taekwondo, which is like, you know, about middle, right? Turn your journey to. And then I stopped going because I don't know. You didn't want to. Why does anyone stop doing that? I don't know. Why does anyone just stop doing that? I got, it got cold or hot. Who knows? - It's hard to go outside, so you stop going right? Heart, something hurts, yeah. Someone died, you know, stuff happens. So we stopped going for some amount of time. The amount of time now is such that I am left in this impossible scenario where I feel like it is something I should be doing, would enjoy returning to, would get a lot out of. But I, for the life of me, do not know how I go back with my blue belt and say, I've forgotten it all. Take this from me and take me back to the, to the white belt 'cause that's the, they don't want to do that. They don't want to get anything out of that, right? They don't want to go back and teach me. And honestly, if I had a tutor, an intensive two week tutor, to Miyagi me through to catch me back up, you know, maybe that, maybe I'm a blue belt again. I don't know, but I don't know how to get back on board and master Kim, I paid, a good amount of, this is the last, this is the other thing, this other, this is the other problem, okay? I was really enthusiastic about Taekwondo and I paid for a year in advance. - Uh-huh, sure. - And then we used about three months of that. And now if I go back, I cannot have a conversation with master Kim where he should-- - You owe me this many Taekwondo's. I, I, I mean, I know, it's gonna waste me a conversation. And of course I will defer to whatever he is the master. - Right, I mean, I would obviously defer to everything. But there would be this question of, I did, I mean, I, yeah, sure. - You can't really say that I was using those months, Master Kim. Like, I wasn't, you know. - Yeah, is it possible, Justin, that simply by paying for the months, even if you didn't go to the class, you were still benefiting from the Taekwondo, like kind of just being there for you if you needed it. - Interesting. - And maybe when that nine months ran out, that's why you can't remember how to do any of it. 'Cause your, your time ran out. - No, but Trevor, I would say, I don't know that to be true. But upon further reflection, I would say that my paying for a year and then just not being present for nine months, I've gotta be like the top 10% of Master Kim's favorite students. - That's true. - I've got a pretty good deal. - It might be-- - It might be-- - And certainly upsetting on some level, but can you imagine if you had a full roster of paying students, but none of them ever came, and you just got to sit there and like, fucking play Halo all day? - Yeah. - They're like, and these suckers are at home feeling guilty. - Pop, pop, pop, pop. - You're doing the same thing I am except the money's flowing this way. - That you might show up and be like, Master, it's been so long, can you teach me? And he'll be like, man, I haven't-- I also haven't done it in like nine months. No one shows up to these things. - That wouldn't explain why, whatever I was early for class, he would always be like, "Oh, Christ, this guy, fuck." Wheel in the TV out of the room. - One more question. - Cool. - Heroic effort. - Can't stop, won't stop. Just like the old days. I'm a college student suffering through a heat wave. Yesterday, I saw a love roller coaster by the electric mayhem featuring Jennifer Hudson and Questlove. - Oh, dude. How long is this fucking roller coaster? Is it like a Guardians of the Galaxy thing where you get a different track? - You never know what track you're gonna get. - Hell yes. Yesterday, I saw a very large lawn sprinkler, spraying water over one of the turf fields on campus to cool it down for a sports game happening later in the day. It looked very refreshing. Do you think it'd be okay for me to know? Do you think it'd be okay for me to run through the giant sprinkler to cool off? That's from melting in Massachusetts. - Why'd I say right now, you're staring into blank page before you. - Okay. - I can't see through that window. - I might I recommend open up the dirty window. - Open it. - Yeah. - Don't illuminate the words that you cannot find. - What if the words were, what if it was to clean up that dirty window and then you all of a sudden it's functional no matter which state? - Well, when you're reaching something in the distance, it's the Wind Ducks. - Yeah. So close, you can almost taste it, but don't 'cause it's Wind Ducks. - Is there advice in here of release your inhibitions? - Okay. - Feel the sprinklers on your skin. No one else can feel it. - The reason it doesn't, the meter doesn't work. - It's 'cause it's not right. - You know, it's sprinklers. We don't have to put that there. - What if instead of frolicking, you're like looking at your phone, pretending to look your phone and you walk in and start getting sprayed and you go, "Oh man, oh no!" And you like, "Oh, kind of befuddled your way through getting sprayed, but not like you enjoy it." - Yeah, okay. Imagine the person that spent some of their day setting these sprinklers up, okay? Now imagine they are watching this field and now imagine yourself striding across it and beginning their refreshment. Do you think there was a reality which they look at you and extend the double thumbs up? Like, yes, this is what I wanted. - I'm glad it's over, it's getting used out of it. - Yeah, I was hoping this is good for the field that I'm in charge of. Thank you so much, this is good. Roll around a bit, maybe pull some grass up. - That's where we are. - Have a real ring. - It doesn't, I don't have a problem. But this is not about inhibitions. I don't care about that. I think that you could do whatever you feel like as long as you're not hurting other folks or yourself. But like, people are gonna assume you don't know that the sprinklers for the grass for you. Yeah, people are gonna assume that you think it is a fun activity for everyone to enjoy. - Right, because you're doing that. - We're doing that. - We're doing that. I don't get it. - Yeah, right. - I thought this was a church fate. - Here's a good standard. If you do something that if 30 other people did it at the same time, they'd write a story about it in the newspaper. (laughing) - That's a really good sort of catch-all. - It's like a pretty good, like you do it. Yes, two people, Mentos commercial. And then it's like 30, it's like get the press. Something's gone wrong. But you know, something's happened. - Yeah. You need to be careful also because if we're talking about one sprinkler that is servicing an entire sports lawn and it's covering that entire place, the pressure that that thing is putting out is going to absolutely flay. If you get too close to it, like a dog you're trying to get a silly drink, it's going to absolutely rip you to shreds. - Correct. - It's gonna blast you apart. So don't be even close to this thing. - But the good news with that is no matter how precisely this thing's been set up, there's no way it stops. Like at the in zone or whatever. You're gonna stand with a headset on a visor, a clipboard right on the edge of the field and you're gonna catch the spritz. You're gonna catch the mist, right? - Gently, gently on the precipice of the thing. - And you're gonna sit there like you're planning plays for the later game while you get a light misting. - Dude, yes, visor on, sports shirt, maybe a jersey, what a coach is wearing, not the jersey. - A polo? - You wear like a polo, yes. And you got your clipboard, you're drawing, doodling, X's and O's. - I don't know if you could sell this as a performance, but what if you're like on your phone or in it, but it's like a fake phone, 'cause you don't like it, you don't like it at your own phone. So it's like a fake phone, okay. You're walking, you're like, what? - Wait, you walk into it, right? Okay, I'm still doing it. I'm still doing it, like, what? And then you're like, some weather we're having. And then you like pop your head up and you're like, oh well, win and roam. And then you like really live it up. So it's like you accidentally did it and then people see you like being fully not pissed off about it. - Wait, not even sweating it, you know what I mean? - Right, but I pitched, but Justin. - Think about it. - I pitched. - No, no, no, no, mine was shorter. Think about it. - His was way shorter. - Think about it. - I mean, you girls were short. - Let me pitch this. What if you pitch this? Let me pitch this. Let me do this. What if you close, but not too close? - What? - A little wet. - Yeah. - But I, but I said, but I. - Not too wet. - Well, sweaty, like I missed it. - Well, sweaty. - It looks cool. - It's gonna feel good. And you gotta can't get too close because I'm looking at some stats, guys. I'm looking at the Nelson Big Gun SR200. The PSI, it throws up to 310 feet and flows up to 1200 gallons per minute. You'll be ripped a sunder. You'll be killed by this sprinkle. - And I think a good rule is if you do something that if like 25 people did it, they'd write about it in the newspaper. You shouldn't. - Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh. - Holy shit, the Nelson Big Gun SR200 absolutely fucking blast. I'm looking at a video of this bad boy. He's like, "Cover and crouch with this guy." - Did you see the long guy like, "No, don't." You think like, "Oh, he's worried about his lawn. "Cuts you in half." - Just like that. - Not again. - No, I have to spray the field off again. - This is just like the bite of 87. - Not everywhere. - When we used to use goats to mow the lawn. - Look at this fucking shit. Dude! Holy f*cking sh*t! that's covering an entire highway you would be mad. Oh my god. You'd be filled out with this graveyard talk to him. Holy shit. Dude, you would blast off your ass fucking forget about it. Look at how hard I should blast you. Why do you think this is the one that you're seeing? It's so powerful. Can you answer trying to hold onto this thing? It's great to learn an operating it. You would go absolutely stupid. It sends right there, Justin. Large volume sprinkler. That looks like a hose that Bruce Willis would use an armageddon. That's not like a sprinkler. That shit's crazy. I didn't even know they made hoses that big. I love that when you're developing a sprinkler like that and you're trying to come up with a name for it. The only name that fits is the big gun. The Nelson big gun. Fuck yeah, dude. Folks, thank you so much for listening to our podcast. You know what we've been doing it for quite some time now. But we're only able to keep doing it because you're support. Like, if you go to maximumfund.org/join and you say you'll give us $5 a month, we'll keep doing the podcast. No problem. Otherwise. - Oh no. That's crazy. We've never tried this tactic before. - Oh, the real nice podcast you got here. Be ashamed. - Okay. We are a little bit behind pace while we're recording this. So maybe threat, like a protection racket. I guess it's the next logical step. Just and just through. - The real nice place you got here. Nice podcast. - This would be more threatening if we didn't end every episode with us throwing something really hard. - Real nice podcast. - This is also like if I owned a store and I told customers they had to pay me more money or I would destroy my own store. - Yeah. Well, that's the way it works sometimes. You like a nice store, but you don't pay it what it's due. Sometimes things get broken at the store. - That's not. - That's how it works. - Sometimes if you're not careful about shopping and giving your money to the store, it'll stop a burning podcast. - Okay. - Be ashamed if that happened here, wouldn't it? - I guess. - Got nice dice you got here. - Nice dice dork. - And you just threw that too. So that's what fun dorks like. - I hit my elbow on this and I'm gonna sue you. Now you got that on your podcast. The old slip and fall. - Oh, I've hurt my elbow.
