MBMBaM 820: More Baubles!

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 mention only so the babies out there will know how cool they are for listening. What's up, you cool baby? One, two, three, four! It's the start of something beautiful. A small acquaintance has blossomed, it's ripened into a precious friendship. I could have never seen what was coming for me. Hangs at the skate park, hangs by the beach. My life, it feels like. My life, it's better, it's better with you. This is true, it's better, it's better with two. My life, it's better with you. Hello everybody, welcome to My Brother, My Brother and Me, an advice show for the modern era. I'm your oldest brother, Justin McElroy. What up, Trav Nation? It's me, your middle-aged brother, Travis Big Dog. Woof, woof, vroom, vroom, the heater. Award winning, award having. Received it in. In the mail, update, only, like, six months later, got it, McElroy. That is a beautiful trophy. Can you beauty blog that shit? Yeah, it's beautiful. It really shows fingerprints. We got that iHeartRadio. Really shows fingerprints. That's why Trav can't touch it to send it to us, because the fingerprinting would be too much of an issue in shipping. You can't have that in your background looking like a grubby kid. I think it might be scuffed. No, that's a permanent scuff right there across the middle. That's how you know it's special. I just want to say, to me, I wish we could win more awards, because the idea of Travis's shot getting more and more filled with awards as ours remains exactly static, I think is so appealing to me. I mean, we should start sending Travis every award we get, whether it's related to the podcast or not. My number one dad ribbon that my. What was the last award you got? What was the last, like, actual award? When I beat. I feel like I just got them all the time when I was a kid. I didn't appreciate it. Plaques meant nothing to me as a child. I got plaques monthly as a kid, right? I have a stack of plaques, boxes of plaques. If I got a plaque now as an adult, I would flip. Don't even start on trophies. If I won a trophy, that's all you would hear about for the next two and a half years. Amanda sent us a medal once. After a particularly rough episode of McElroy Family Clubhouse. And I was so excited. A medal? For me? Sarah and Amanda sent me a. I got a hot dog statue one time when I beat a trial by Fieri. I've got. But then. But yeah, I guess you're right, Justin. To come back to the point you were making, we're not very competitively successful. And I don't get a lot of prizes. I display the rap gif from the movie I was cut from. Yeah. That's where I'm at. On the Hollyweird spectrum. Yeah. But this is my brother, my brother, me, Trav. I wanted to say happy birthday, America. And happy. And the gift that we all got that, like, Shrek didn't have time to prepare much. But for America's birthday, for the 250th, he did have one gift. And it is a new trailer that Griffin, I'm hearing you have not. I've not watched. Yeah. I've been saving it sort of like the guy in Lost. It's like the last thing I want to. It's like the meteor's coming. It's like now I can watch the Shrek 5 trailer in my last moments with my family. So here's what I would like to try. Because I've never. I think this would be fun. You know how, like, there are audio description tracks available for, like, viewers that might need that assistance? Or like if you're touring a museum describing a great work of art. Right? Griff, I was wondering, could you watch the trailer and then just, like, as you're watching, just describe the whole thing as you're watching it? Yeah. Just, like, stream of. Yeah. Stream of. Like, just. Not even stream of conscious, because you're watching a trailer. Okay. So just, like, not thinking about it. Just, like, saying what you're seeing. You're. You are the audio description. Because, like, this is an audio medium, and I can't think of how else to translate the trailer into this podcast. And I feel like. Well, I mean, you could screen share it. We have the technology to screen share it. I don't want to watch it with you. I just want to listen to you watch it. Okay. Well. You know what I mean? Like, I guess we could watch it at the same time as you do, but I'd much rather hear your. Sort of twist it. And I just kind of freestyle jazz it. Not freestyle. Say what you see on the screen. Say what I see on screen. Describe the whole trailer as you watch it. Well, okay. Here we go. Shrek music. Book. Book has an onion. I see Shrek. I see Donkey. They are cartoons. And now a book is turned. Wait, Griffin. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Can we start over? Yeah, but I mean, you. I did it. This is really good. No, this is all great. This is exactly what I wanted. The only thing I didn't get is, like, a really hard, like. I need a sync point for. Because they're going to want to tie this together. And I think we might be able to release this on our channels, fair use. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is transformative. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We cut the audio, too. I need to say more opinions, then. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a 121 trailer. Yeah. And so, like, we're just going to do 3, 2, 1, play. And then we can, like. So people can watch it. Or they don't need to watch it, because I'm going to describe everything that happens. There we go. Okay. So I don't want them to watch it. I don't want them to watch it at the same time as me. But I would like you to. I'd like to watch it long. Yeah. You just said you didn't. You literally just said you didn't. Not all together. I changed my mind. We're going to watch it together separately. Can't a lady change her mind? Okay, so now are you going to screen share it? No, you need to kind of say. I'm just watching it myself, just like the listeners will be. This is so obtuse. 81 seconds of pleasure. Get ready to bust in. 3, 2, 1, play. That's that Shrek music I love. We're looking at an Onion book, and it opens, and it's got a story about Shrek. I see Shrek and Donkey. I see Donkey. I see a castle and Donkey and Shrek. And a big fucking onion. They're doing. Donkeys? They look so realistic. I see Donkey. He's doing. He just said, but Donkey, Donkey, and Eddie Murphy's voice. Shrek and Donkey's there. Shrek's kids are old now. They're riding on a broom. Shrek looks great. Oh, yeah, they just smacked Ginger Red Man's ass. He's got two big gumdrops as butt cheeks. Did they give Shrek wrinkles? They gave him wrinkles because he's. A great Olaf joke. That's good. Shrek's back. Donkey's back. He said, hell, so they're going to cuss in this Shrek movie? Fuck yeah, dude. Fuck yeah, dude. Fuck yeah, dude. Yes, they put Shrek in jail. Good luck with that. No jail can hold Shrek and his big kids. I thought Shrek had three kids, but I only see two kids here. Did one of the kids die in the last movie? Donkey's singing. It's so funny. They look so good. All-Star. Now they're playing All-Star. Zendaya's in it. They got Zendaya in it. Well, they had to put Zendaya in it. Yeah. Happy birthday, George Washington. Happy birthday, George. You did it. Shrek-cellent. A Shrek-excellent birthday. Happy birthday to you, George. A most Shrek-excellent birthday to America and George. They sure did add a lot of shadows and textures, didn't they? Deeper than ever before. You mentioned that the internet was upset with, I guess, the density of these turbo textures that they've put on Shrek's flesh. Travis, you pointed out the wrinkles in that trailer. That's the kind of definition you don't get with the smooth, glossy Shrek of the 2000s era. I like it. I like a remaster. I like a revamp. I don't love the ballooning cost of production in Hollywood. I'm worried about Shrek. Well, they actually shot this on location. Okay. In his swamp. In the swamp and far, far away. I'm just worried about the pressure that's going to be on Shrek. Because this movie looks so expensive. Zendaya does not do shit for less than seven figures. So I'm worried that the box office demands on Shrek will be too high. And I want to know what I can do to help. I want to be of service to Shrek. I'm worried about the family blogger aspect of it. Where, you know, they're making content with their kids now. Okay. And, like, that can cause a lot of issues, you know, in the family dynamics. Can we be serious now? Because this thing, this role play you're doing that Shrek is real and that this is a filmed movie is great and all. I'm being vulnerable and expressing my emotions. That I'm scared for Shrek and how much is going to be asked of him in this motion picture. And I feel you don't share those feelings. Do you not want to see? I worry that sometimes that just because I didn't see the third and fourth Shrek movies, I don't want to see the fifth one. And that is something that does concern me about the fifth movie is do I maybe not want to see it? Because I did not want to see the third or fourth films. What's that mean for you? What's that mean for us? I'm so blurred. I'm so blurry right now. I keep moving around so much because I'm so excited about goddamn Shrek. Justin, I'm pretty confident that. they probably baked that in to the fifth one knowing that like they can look at the numbers right i can't imagine three and four did numbers beyond one and two that's what i'm saying right but like shrek forever after came out in 2010 that's before any of us had kids right so this is the first shrek that we're gonna have to reckon with as parents like we have to decide what this means for our family so do we let shrek in our house do we have a shrek forward household you mean shrek pure right because puss in boots where he fights the grim reaper who's a wolf is absolute cinema absolutely the best shit ever okay if can this be a sequel to that did they ever do that where they make a sequel to the mainline thing of the much much much much much much much better spinoff thing that would be incredible i i mean the pressure's on mike too because if this fucking tank's like three and four what's that mean for austin what's that mean for what's that mean for the love guru let's bring this up yes thank you just about this yes uh quick this is from yesterday this is breaking wait this is breaking this is not don't get too don't get too high feet but like do do do check it okay there is a verizon ad yes right yeah i've got this many times i've seen the verizon ad maybe you've seen the verizon ad but here is the insta quote had a delightfully evil time getting this band back together we'll have to do it again soon we'll have to do it again soon michael awesome will we will we do it again because that because because even if because i'll tell you what guys even if there's not currently a plan for ap4 yeah that is in hollywood lingo that is very clearly mike myers someone has a plan for it just hike it up the skirt a little bit saying hey big boy yeah i think austin may still be in here there may be an ap4 script me and me and the gang i just like them going out check my gold ride i like them going out to fucking outback steakhouse after wrapping this verizon commercial featuring dr evil and co and being like you know what guys that felt good yeah that felt good stepping into that ball i think we still got it i think we got it gang this is the show this is um this is it's throwing me off how much rob low i can't tell if number two there is rob low or the guy that played him originally and then rob low played the younger version god yeah rob low did age into a perfect uh oh god who was that robert forrester is that who was it's just perfect casting it's really throwing me yeah he's played yeah okay so he's young number two according to a quick robert wagner excuse me robert wag he looks like he looks a lot like robert wagner he does it's kind of uncanny wow that was that is uncanny and also how fucked is it that rob low is playing young anyone rob low is like no it's not young it was like normal number two was rob low robert wagner was cast as old number two in relation to that oh hey because it was in the movie it was in the movie it was in the movie it was in the movie in the future you're right yes let me start back at the beginning austin powers was a british secret intelligence agent that was frozen back in the 1960s whoa because he was captured by dr evil yeah i don't i'm sorry justin it was because dr evil cryogenically froze himself and launched himself into space to return and they knew they would need austin powers to fight him when they came back so they cryogenically froze him so that he would be there when dr evil returned mike we're ready mike we're so ready we're chomping at the bit please go literally literally for us we are chomping at the bit please oh yeah the bit it's so chewy we're extracting every ounce of mojo from this bit as we possibly can um this is an advice show like we we take your questions we turn them alchemy like into wisdom here's the first one you got to get this big picture of middle-aged seth green off my monitor yeah no matter what you're doing you're going to get how old that man gets i just i will always see him just eating offering me some pizza and watching some cool vhs tapes at his house and smoking weed i would like to do that with seth i'll always think of him from idle hands but that's just me idle hands is a great one i'm leather face will always pop in my head man it's good oz without a paddle dax dax the game is over dang the other guy in there is it dang cook it's not sometimes i like to visit a local donut shop after work for a sweet treat i typically buy a couple donuts or cronuts before walking home because it's all sorry it's matthew lillard and without a paddle it's matthew lillard thank you feel bad if we didn't a friend of the show matthew alert my next thought was breckenmeyer and i knew i was in breckenmeyer loved it love to hang with brecken because it's almost time for this i don't know why i said i don't not know if i do or not if you call that i'd like definitely talk to breckenmeyer the male loneliness epidemic has become severe enough that now i think all three of us when we just hear of a a dude we remember we're like i bet that's a dang cook i bet that's a decent hang no i i actually there's no amount of loneliness i could feel that would make me think dang cook is a cool hang shit hey let's not that dan's out here catching strays we don't dan's trying to rebuild they're not necessary no no you know where i thought i felt this very very primally recently because i watched an episode of the the polygon series where they take celebrities to visit uh game stores and they had keenan and kel going through video games shelf quest shelf quest is very good plug for shelf quest third heat to that hang please guys next time please all i need is just give me a day's notice like hey justin it's keenan and orkel we might get both yeah i might get both i'd love it just like come on come on get a hang on with us we're going to you know game stop i guess that's the best video game store in new york if i had to guess but sometimes i like to visit a local donut shop after work for a sweet treat i typically buy a couple donuts or cronuts before walking home because it's almost time for the shop to close they usually add a free donut or two with my purchase once they even gave me three extra donuts and several cronut holes this was great but it hasn't happened since brothers what can i do to maximize the number of free donuts i receive without coming across as too greedy that's from counting donuts in colorado p.s i always tip and make sure to thank them for their generosity they're a fantastic local shop and i enjoy supporting their business okay can i i would like to clarify something yeah just real quick i i'm not making a judgment but if you say i'm trying to maximize the number of free things i can get that is greed by any traditional definition anyone that is like textbook yeah yeah so it's like you are definitely trying to see how much of something you can get without any sort of plan for need or consumption right so it's like that's great that is greed right that's kind of what it is that's kind of what it is and if you say that's fine if you connect your thoughts if you connect the thoughts of i'm trying to get as many freebies as i can and i tip really generously now you've just kind of obfuscated the the prime kind of capitalist sort of invention that we that we're all kind of working on and i'm trying to get as many freebies as i can and i'm trying to get as on here which is paying for goods and services you just want to go about it now you're saying if if this is like a corporate scene where it's like i'm not charging you for donuts but if you want to tip me yes yes and i can dunk into my savings account and put it in there you know what i'm saying it's a fantastic local shop and i don't know if anyone's ever said dunkin donuts oh yeah my local my local chapter sorry there's definitely a paragraph two trap like that's like i'm saying totally cool love that setup if you can turn turn corporate money into tips for workers that's a great setup don't do that to your local donut shop obviously but yeah that is important here is i think that like if you went in to say buy half a dozen yeah no amount of free donuts should change the amount you're planning to buy the free donuts is an at like if you said i'm going to go in to get six but i think i could get three free so i'm only going to buy three no no it's hard because it's like it is for me if i go in and buy two donuts and they give me three free donuts there's this part of me it's like well just take these back you know what i mean like you're obviously just chucking away donuts this should be a like you just want to see what's possible right this is not a scheme right you're just want to see the limits of generosity right because also those day old donuts sounds like they're going to get rid of them at the end of the day anyway trash anyway so here's what you're going to do here's you go to the shop you say hey listen you're about to close i'm about to buy a couple donuts you love it i love it i want you to give me a box and i want you to fill it with all of the free donuts you can and i'm going to take it to a shelter for people experiencing homelessness in the nearby area right so then what i hope that's the truth though it's true though it has to be true obviously you're going to hell yeah right you will go to hell forever if it's not real i'll make it and send you there does this create a scenario where if you ever go in wanting donuts you have to be pretty abundantly explicitly clear I would like a half dozen donuts and these are me donuts for me only don't connect it in your mind that you're gonna give me extra donuts for charity cause these are going inside of me so well what if they gave you two dozen to take ask for eight dozen donuts for charity you can't ask for a number that's the problem if you ask for a number for charity then that's a donation they're making I would need you to say scour the kitchen open the fridge find the donuts that you have cause I wanna know how many free ones I can get off of you I'm just testing the limits yeah you don't wanna put a thumb on the scale I get it yeah exactly cause what if they had nine does fuck man I didn't even think about that I didn't even think about nine being bigger than eight that's more that's more yeah fuck well that's the most there could be though right you know why people forget about that so much it's because seven ate nine ah yeah I didn't even think about that that's a great point that's why I keep you around you feel good about that do you feel how do you feel about that joke and this is not a leading question it's only you describing it as a joke that soured it if it was more just like a thing that was said a witticism not even that just like a sound soundable just a sound that moved to the next sound just a sound that you made yeah it's just a sound you know what I mean how do you feel about that series of sounds you made with your mouth I stand behind it yes you should I think it would be good practice for everyone to start carrying around little treasures that then next time you go to the donut shop and buy some donuts and you get the number of donuts that you paid for you hand them a couple like really cool marbles or rocks trinkets or a pen trinkets yes it's so powerful so pebbling now I'm going above and beyond now I'm now I'm showing you my gratitude through the through gifts it's a macro geocache is what it is comes to you normalized treasure everyone should have a little pouch of treasure that they can go around and give away to people who've gone above and beyond I didn't know now are we reintroducing a barter system to the economy no because there's no goods and services being exchanged this is you saying no you don't understand there's a price on the menu for the eight donuts and you pay it and you get eight donuts but you really liked the hang so you give them a couple cool looking marbles and like a rock you found it's just like I do not need a patch of treasure a pouch of treasure hanging around my neck I don't need to be more of a target than I already am I'm already running around with a bunch of like video games in my pockets and the keys to my big beautiful Buick I look like I'm like a little goblin from golden yeah I feel like a little goblin from golden axe just like it hit me into all my potions for me I feel like a little goblin from golden axe I feel like a little goblin from golden axe Hey, I know this isn't helpful. I know this is some real Monday morning quarterbacking, but if I could start here, I would have not clanged the parts against absolutely every obstacle in your path. Like, if you're asking for a way to do it better, like, before we even talk, like, I don't think your strategy was fundamentally flawed. Your strategy was decent, which is get the thing and get out so that you can remove yourself from this fairly vulnerable situation. But the execution, I think, did suffer because you clanged it on every obstacle in your path. But the person at fault here is the seller who said, yeah, no problem. I'll just be jumping into a meeting. You, at that point, no amount of clanging you've done makes it your fault that it's happening during a psychiatric appointment. You could have had a bigger car. Okay. If you had a bigger car, they probably thought it's just going to be a one-tripper. It doesn't matter because I got my therapy afterwards and it's all about my car. And it's all about procrastination. This is my therapy. I'm in therapy for procrastination. So, like, if I delay either of these things, it's going to be bad. I don't want to. This may be a little bit too highfalutin, but bear with me a second. Okay, sure. Right? So, there's two kind of states of being. There's two different states, right? Being is doing, right? You can be without doing anything, right? You can just be. That's meditation. So, in meditation, you're trying to get to the essence of just, like, being without doing anything, right? So, conversely, by my reasoning, there must be an opposite end of the spectrum where you can do this and not have to be there. Do you know what I'm saying? That's retail work. So, yes, yeah. Like, you can maybe tap into that. That's a good. But, like, just that even retail work, you have to do some being, right? Because people might talk to you or you might get a phone call or something. Not if you work in the warehouse, baby. I was doing all over the place in there. But for this, you need to reach a state of absolute doing. Just 100% non-presence. It's like, you should have trouble navigating the room because of your lack of being. And you should slip out of people's minds like the TARDIS. Devil's Advocate, is it possible they reached this fugue state you're describing and maybe that's why they banged into every obstacle? No, because they remember it. They remember it so they were there for it, right? If you were 100% doing, you would not have the recall of this terrible time. You would be in the car and then it would be slightly later and you would still be in the car with the air conditioner back there and everything else is just gone. It was just like, yes, it's severance. It's like full, intentional self-severance. I wish I had severance. I wish I had severance, but just for the bathroom. How dope would that be if you walked in there and there was just one guy and he was Dookie Man and all you ever knew was that? His life is weird. His life is bad, but my life is shorter. What is this? We would stuff it with Uncle John's bathroom readers every day. He would not want for activity, but you would just, put him in, you would just walk through the door and then you'd immediately walk out the door and it would be 20 minutes later. Why do I sometimes want to drink from the sink and sometimes I don't want to drink from the sink? I don't understand. Sometimes I want to lap from the sink and sometimes I don't. He can shower too. He can have a shower. No, I don't want to shower. I like a shower. Can he and I do that together? I'll have a half bath for just showers, which is not typically the half. I don't see how you watch this show, but I'm pretty sure if you end up with somebody doing your severance bathrooms, they will find a way to break out and come kill you. Like a hundred percent. I don't know how it's going to work out. They would not understand our world. They would not. All they know is bathrooms. So like they reach a hallway and they're like, where's the toilet? And like, yeah, I shit on this couch and it didn't go anywhere. I sat down. I did what I do, but it's like trapped here. Mark, I meant to ask you every time. You go in the bathroom. I just hear you screaming. Let me out. Let me out. I want to be, I want to be, I want to see the world. Why is there no windows? Like, and I don't understand your, your, you take a long time in there too, man. Excuse me, sir. How do I make more soil? Excuse me. I seem to unable to make soil as normal. How does one make soil? Oh my God. Can you imagine if your bathroom severance, your bathroom, in reality, like ran out of toilet paper? Like how they let you know? They have no accent. What would they do? You walk into the bathroom and then you immediately walk back out with your pants around your ankles in a sort of roadie run. What happened? What did you do? What did you do in there? Let's take a break and we'll come right back after this. Guys, I listened. I brought a tree for fast growing trees. You know, I love these two apple trees I bought. They're too fast growing. It's overtaking my home. Okay. I don't know that they want a Jumanji danger to be like one of the, like an arborist kaiju. Yeah. They're growing very well, the two apple trees. I mean, while I'll admit there is a bit of hyperbole, they are not destroying my home, but they're growing well. They have leaves, some of the hallmarks of good tree growth. You can see I'm not an arborist myself. That's why I'm lucky to have fast growing trees to depend on because the cool thing about them is if you buy a tree from them, first off, you tell where you live, they'll tell you about your growing zones would work well there. And then if you're having problems with your plant or even if you're not, even if you just need a little help, you can call them and you can talk to a plant expert. Like really, it's an alive and thrive guarantee. That's an expert in plants, by the way, not a plant that is an expert. That would be so cool too. Oh my God. They got one of them, they got one of them dancing cactuses there that when you call and ask for help with your trees, he like wiggles around. Oh, like from Final Fantasy? He's really, he's really cool. I like him a lot. His name's Trevor. Yeah, Trevor's cool, man. DJs. Yeah. Now's a perfect time to plant.

Hey, I've got a kitty in my home. Who's very precious and special to me. Her name is Jasmine. She is simultaneously very sneaky and very clumsy. That's great. Oh, that's the best when kitty cats mix it up. She believes she is incredibly sneaky and is very obvious and clumsy. How are the beans? The beans are excellent. And she has a little heart, like black mark on her nose that looks like a heart. It's amazing. She's very special and precious to me. And I want to give her the best, the best of everything. Everything. And I want to serve it on those like crystal bowls like they used to show in commercials with the little like mint leaf on it. Yes. I don't think a cat wants the mint leaf there, but that's mostly for the human doing it. Well, she chews on the plants in my window. So I've had to be very careful about which plants I put there and which ones I lock safely in my office. Yeah. Yeah. How can cats be so picky, special, precious princesses when it comes to eating really good food sometimes, but then, and also sometimes they'll eat the flower that they see that has poison in it. I believe, listen, not this is out of the air, but I believe that my cat is punishing those plants for touching her while she's trying to stalk birds in the window. Okay. And like they brush up against her so she chews on them. It's a line of sight, a line of sight issue, perhaps. Yes. So I want to give my cat the best. So my cat deserves Small's cat food. Small's fresh cat food is protein packed, made with preservative free, 100% human grade ingredients you'll find in your fridge. That's like, they're good enough for human. Not like we've reached the level of this was human meat. That's how good this is. No, it's for humans. There's no human meat in Small's. That's a Travis McElroy guarantee. And it's delivered right to your door. Cats use protein as their main energy source. More protein means more fuel and a healthier cat. So they can run around like dinguses and try to attack your ankles like sneaky predators. More more after switching to Small's. 88% of cat owners report overall health improvements.

you have okay sorry pal maybe asmr it no don't do that either meet me in the middle and tell me about the food stuff jimmy johns has got a new meal for you no my old my old stomping grounds they team they teamed up they teach this is the partnership uh i'd say it's a partnership that everybody's been waiting for i'm just i mean a picture's worth a thousand words isn't that what they said are they partnering with me because i used to work there that was a type of partnership that was a type of partnership that's true a little bit more you were a stakeholder oh huh yes it's and he's got the fetty rop that's that's a the fetty why up that's wild business guys that's crazy work jimmy johns because it's new the number 1738 fetty cap i have to spell capital w open parenthetical lowercase r closed parenthetical a p meal the fetty the parentheses there are two parentheses there are two parentheses there are two parentheses there are two parentheses doing so much work and all of it's mysterious yeah yeah yeah well yeah okay yeah it is necessary the parentheses because otherwise you would just say fetty wrap meal but the fetty the fetty does enough to distinguish what they're going for well and the big picture of fetty wop that they do have of him holding what is clearly a extremely photoshopped in uh chicken chicken bacon caesar wrap yes yeah he's holding it like it's a beaker that he's doing some sort of science in yeah but the parentheses seem to indicate to me silent r oh maybe it is maybe okay yeah that's that's also kind of possible um this is so confusing yeah so uh let's talk about it hey what's up hello jimmy johns is teaming up with fetty wop to bring the energy of sober straight to the menu with the number 1738 fetty capital w open parenthetical lowercase r closed parenthetical ap meal featuring the brand new buffalo ranch chicken wrap and the buffalo flavored jimmy chips i don't know i don't know if it's a day i don't know why you needed to do that there but it felt right to me for you to get that there yeah answering fans long-standing calls for more fetty jimmy johns is officially delivering the wrap of the summer that's uh w-r-a-p of the summer brought to you by the rapper r-a-p-p-e-r of the summer fetty wop also stars in a digital spot packed with unmistakable rap queen energy celebrating a flavor drop that hits just as hard as his iconic anthem let's back up if you do not know about fetty wop's big song trap queen yeah some of this may be very confusing to you from 11 whole ass years ago especially like years ago i think that it being pride month talking about rap queen for speaking about yes rap queen with a picture of fetty wap might lead to a reader who is not aware of trap queen making assumptions about what's going on in fetty wap's life we're already linguistically several layers deep yeah because what we're doing here is talking about fetty wop who is a rapper selling w-r-a-p you know what i mean we're already like so deep but now we're talking about rap queen energy where rap is replacing trap queen oh fucking calm down okay hit me with the jimmy john's new the 1738 fetty parentheses t w parentheses r a-p queen the the fetty to a rap queen now we're now we've gotten so specific yeah uh fetty wop also stars in a digital spot packed with unmistakable digital you say energy yes it's a digital spot not on cell celluloid no it's not a celluloid let's uh it's a flip book this is uh how the real pros do it i've never watched this ad so let's just watch it together okay oh react and then and then we'll then we'll build off a lot of live reacts but yeah obviously don't talk yeah bro i'll see you at the studio later man i'm about to grab some food man hey what up i'm like hey what's up hello welcome to jimmy john's what can i get for you i'll do the 1738 bill duh one buffalo ranch chicken wrap buffalo jimmy chips and a drink wait does this make me your rap queen oh my god okay yeah baby whoa here's your fetty rap meal right it's just that's a rap yeah and you got that soda not the lyrics but i appreciate it though like yeah i see what you're doing there anytime mr wop xavier is fine okay that's cool yeah thank you i'm gonna take this rap to my rari hey two icons one rap the 1738 fetty rap meal available now so okay interesting things here um there's a lot i mean there's a ton of interest can i just start by saying i'm not that familiar uh with fetty wop's work but the vibe on the vibe on that gentleman is pretty choice i'll say it's a good charming vibe i really like fetty wop's energy i'm now very much celebrating him getting this promotion i really really really think jimmy john's is bending over backwards to make it make sense and i feel like i'm gonna have to do it again i'm gonna have to do it again i'm gonna have to do it doing an entire ad about how sweaty this whole thing is yeah and and choosing to make um what what am i called the most uncomfortable interaction with a customer like don't you want to come into our store we make our customers wildly uncomfortable in our interactions they kind of gotta hang a lantern on it right it's bad for my answers i think hanging as large a lantern as they have is insulting to my intelligence but this whole thing had an enormous hook that was labeled four lanterns four big lanterns like it there was a space for it um it's hard to blame them for capitalizing on that at the center of it all is the buffalo ranch chicken wrap made with all natural chicken and drizzled with buffalo wild wings medium buffalo sauce layered with fresh lettuce wait buffalo wild wings the company yeah so it's a triple partnership we got them we got them we got them layered with fresh lettuce tomato onion sliced celery crispy carrots and homestyle ranch all wrapped up in a soft flour tortilla uh it's serves up bold nostalgia packed flavor nostalgia what for that time you ate a buffalo wild wings wild wings and fetty wop was there do you remember when fetty wop was visiting from college and you took him to buffalo wild wings and talk about his grades it's gonna feel just like that because all rap queens deserve a good deal okay jimmy johns is offering the 1738 fetty rap meal for 679 from july 6th through the 9th to another one of fetty wop's party anthems exclusively for jj rewards members using the code rap queen i'm so sorry i'm so sorry they're selling the fetty wop special rap for three days um no for three days you can get it for 679 679 i was going to say why roll out a commercial for a three-day because apparently of the hit song 679 which was also by mr wop as we were saying where i'm not as familiar with his work the apparently according to wikipedia the song finds three performers admiring an attractive woman at a nightclub environment oh and it is a the title is a reference to fetty wop's birthday of june 7 1991 happy belated birthday to mr mop don't you have you noticed a pattern is fine that's true there's fine have you noticed he did not say that to me though if i were to say pardon xavier you would call me fetty wop justin thank you so much if someone says something in a commercial or a tv show or a movie they're also saying it to you yeah it's like vampire rules if they have a welcome mat that's enough to let you in now listen have you noticed a pattern in munch squads where sometimes they will partner with like a celebrity for a thing and it's a wild combination and it's available at like one store right it for like two hours right and then there are other times where it's very clearly we want to start making a buffalo chicken route and make it a staple item on our menu now we just need to find a celebrity as an excuse to promote this like it's important but this is going to all stores all the time forever yeah correct yes that's true but fetty wap w-a-p and if you put the r if you do an r in there oh fuck yeah i didn't even get it what if oh shit it's like what if what if they put the r in a different place and they started selling the fetty warp oh shit this was and this was again now what about you put some noodles in you start getting a fettuccine now that now i'm into wrap olive garden would never but if they did that would be good fettuccine would be less of a problem it would be less of a walk it would be less of a stretch i think than this than what they're doing here here's a quote just by putting pepperoncini on a on a sandwich and i would buy the fettuccine well that would be no that would be confusing oh okay sorry uh i gotta talk to you guys about weberoni but that's separate fetty wap helped to define then this is an interesting use of a definite article fetty wap helped to define the sound of the summer and we wanted to bring some of that energy to our menu at suzanne de ruchet vice president of integrated marketing communications at jimmy john's and music which sounds like the job title of the person who has to make excuses for when we do bad things yeah this meal is iconic flavor forward and built for fans who knew that some eras and flavors never miss it's a buffalo chicken wrap you guys didn't like invent the atom bomb it's a buffalo chicken wrap this summer you'll be saying yeah baby with every bite with buffalo chips trap that's the difference that's sure it's too much buffalo i agree i'm happy for for fetty wap yeah either way whichever he prefers i'm happy for him he seems like a nice guy yeah we know nothing about him so if he's not a nice guy don't i don't yeah i can't like vouch for him um the jimmy john's guy shoots elephants so i don't like him very much but oh my god i remember when we were working there and we all like him very much but oh my god i remember when we were working there and we all liked him very much but oh my god i remember when we were working there and we all liked him very much but oh my god i remember when we were working there and we all liked him very much but oh my god i remember when we were working there and we all liked him very much but oh my god i remember when we were working there and we all liked him very much found out it was a dark day dark day dark day this is yeah what throws he walked in with this is yeah what throws he walked in with this is yeah what throws he walked in with his blunder bus yeah and then elephant slung his blunder bus yeah and then elephant slung his blunder bus yeah and then elephant slung over his shoulder yeah and you didn't say over his shoulder yeah and you didn't say over his

parking he said this thing charged me in the parking he said this thing charged me in the parking lot and this was self-defense and lot and this was self-defense and lot and this was self-defense and now we know now we know now we know that's not true i think a more curious that's not true i think a more curious that's not true i think a more curious mind would have asked him why he had mind would have asked him why he had mind would have asked him why he had his blunder bus on him in the first place his blunder bus on him in the first place his blunder bus on him in the first place yeah i was 22 at the time you know you yeah i was 22 at the time you know you yeah i was 22 at the time you know you were scared yeah yeah i was scared he were scared yeah yeah i was scared he were scared yeah yeah i was scared he had a blunder bus and i was still had a blunder bus and i was still had a blunder bus and i was still thinking about jumanji thinking about jumanji thinking about jumanji yeah you know and the hunter who looked yeah you know and the hunter who looked yeah you know and the hunter who looked like robin williams dad showed up and like robin williams dad showed up and like robin williams dad showed up and yeah when we worked there this is also yeah when we worked there this is also yeah when we worked there this is also what throws you from this commercial what throws you from this commercial what throws you from this commercial whatever and i'm like okay but no one whatever and i'm like okay but no one whatever and i'm like okay but no one showed me how to do that and he would showed me how to do that and he would showed me how to do that and he would yell i you not no time get on the yell i you not no time get on the yell i you not no time get on the register and someone else would make it register and someone else would make it register and someone else would make it yeah so the idea that there would be a yeah so the idea that there would be a yeah so the idea that there would be a humorous interaction with any customer humorous interaction with any customer humorous interaction with any customer at any level well at any level well at any level well i think you maybe had a substandard You fell through the cracks of the Jimmy John's system, and that does tragically happen to a lot of our nation's youths. Yeah, Jimmy John did make me shave in the Jimmy John's bathroom with a rusty razor and lukewarm water. If I have to hear about you shaving with a rusty razor in the Jimmy John's bathroom one more time. I hate it, Austin. What was the other thing you wanted to talk about, Juicer? Oh, this is one that I did a field report on with my body. Austin, if you're listening, you're a piece of shit. Sorry, go off you, Austin. You can't do that. That's a violation of federal communication standards. That's narrow casting. To tell Austin to just fuck it. Yeah, you can't use the American broadcast waves. This show is, of course, simulcast on SiriusXXXM, the adults-only SiriusXXM. Characters welcome. Characters unwelcome because they're all in jail. The characters are like Pikachu, Superman. You can really get away with fucking anything on SiriusXXXM. I want to see if I can wait. Because you guys aren't going to be as excited about Weberoni if you don't see Weberoni in action. I'm sure it's going to happen. Oh, sounds like a 1996 website. Yeah. That's a very funny joke, Travis. Kids, search up code word best buddies on Weberoni to play our new Flash game. Sorry, Justin, did you just say that sounds like a very funny joke, Travis? No, I said that is a funny joke, Travis. Okay. It's a funny joke to me. It's still the most chilling thing I've ever heard. It sounds like a web. It says, you said it sounds like a website. Yeah. And I said it's Weberoni. So I was like, that's a very funny joke because you put web and web together. He agreed. He was agreeing with you. I don't know why you're getting upset. It still cut me to my core. Well, okay. I was just agreeing that it was a very funny joke. I don't know. Travis, we've been at this. I can be more negative if you want. We've been crafting humor together for such a long time. Sometimes a laugh isn't the organic response to this. Yeah. Sometimes it's a discussion. It's a craftsmanship. Yeah. Like, you know, when artists go around museums, they're whipping it out every few seconds. They're just saying like, oh, good art. Then they move on to the next part, bro. Show me this Weberoni at the Little Caesars. We'll have a shred of pepperoni and toasted cheese. With the Weberoni pizza from Little Caesars, we can finally eat like. Oh, oh. Those men died. What kind of died? Weberoni pizza for $8.99. See Spider-Man for a new day. Pizza, pizza. Okay, so Weberoni. Yeah, I was struck by an image right away, Justin. Yeah, of what? The construction workers hanging upside down there. Yeah. Yeah. What they have done that Spider-Man does not normally do is anchor the line, because they're on safety belts, so that it looks like the web is coming directly from their gooch or butthole. Yeah, that's good. They're also wearing shorts, which you almost never see Spider-Man doing. Never seen in a construction setting, yeah. So the Weberoni pizza. I had yesterday, and I got to eat it live to myself. Little Caesars. Hold on. How does one eat something not. How does one eat something not live? I ate it. I didn't. This isn't just a story. I'm saying, like, I have a live report from my body from last night and today. So I have, like, different. Oh, yeah. I have a lot of different perspectives. We're going to want to hear the follow-up. Yeah. You won't, actually. So it's going to swing into theaters on the 31st, but on Saturday, June 27th, they open. They opened a replica of Peter Parker's apartment. Little Caesars did. Okay. And at this replica, they launched the Weberoni pizza. So Weberoni pizza is. It's a pizza, and it features tiny shredded pepperonis and shredded cheeses in a fashion that looks like Spider-Man has just, like, webbed it, like, with cheese and pizza. Yeah. How intricately. If there was a. If there was a switch on his thing that could change from webs to torn-up pepperoni pieces. And you know, at least once, he's forgotten to switch it back before he gets in a big brawl with Doc Ock, and he's like, get stuck to the wall, Doc Ock. But instead, he just blasts him with confetti of spicy meats. Ah, I'm vegan! No! Right, and it's a problem. Elektra's vegan. So the Weberoni pizza, they're opening a pop-up experience. On the 27th. This is tomorrow from 1 to 8 in New York. We can't get there in time. Well, not with that attitude. This episode's already gone up. Yeah. To the brotherhood of New York. Here's. Inspired by Spider-Man's iconic web-slinging superpowers, Weberoni pizza features a web of shredded pepperoni and toasted cheeses on top. The combination of shredded pepperoni and toasted two-cheese blend offers customers an opportunity to get pepperoni in every bite, all for just $8.99. You can also add your own web pizza by just adding a web of pizza and toasted cheeses. Web it up. Web it up. They had to add the quotes there to make it clear, like, our employees are not going to carefully place these shredded pepperoni in a web shape. I can't, we can't make this clear enough. They will conjure the idea, the suggestion of a web, but this will not look like a web. We are little Caesars. We have invested all of. All of our money into R&D at getting this stuff at you as fast as we can if there was a pizza gun, like in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, that we could just shoot it into your open driver's side window as you roll by the restaurant. We would do that. We cannot stop to form an intricate latticework of this Italian meat. It can't be. It will stop the gears entirely. Also, not since Tobey Maguire's has Spider-Man had the power. To launch webs. This Peter Parker has a web-slinging device. It's not a superpower that he has, you dumb shits. Well, maybe. Well, you haven't seen the movie. What is that for? Who's the anger at? Yeah, like, who's the anger for? I don't know, man. I woke up early with a headache and. Yeah, but. but don't bring that here. You know what, Little Caesars? Justin's right. Little Caesars, that was unkind of me. You're doing your best out here, and I'm actually due. Austin still, Austin still suck my butt, buddy. Austin can still huff nuts. Austin, you heard them. But the weberoni, we should celebrate. This is somebody who really looked at Spider-Man and be like, how can I translate this into a pizza? They really looked at the Spider-Man experience. It's like, eat like Spider-Man is the tagline. As though once you get Spider-Man, he's like, I can't eat shit without webs anymore. I love this stuff. I'll go to Uno Pizzeria Grill and be like, hey, can you web it? Do you have the technology here to, at Little Caesars, they do a thing called webbing it. I'd like a web style. I'd like a web style, please. I'm Spider-Man. Oh shit, I'm not wearing the costume. Fuck, I just gave it away. I have to applaud. I applaud them for this interpretation of a Spider-Man pizza and not just delivering pizzas in the box upside down and calling that Spider-Man pizza because I think that that would also fill the brief and it would make the pizza more difficult to eat, but it's not like the hot and readies are really good. Also, can we highlight, what a coup for Little Caesars to get to partner with Marvel's Spider-Man. Huge. I would expect that of a Papa John's, maybe even a Pizza Hut. Little Caesars gets to work with Spider-Man? I think the competition's becoming a little bit more fierce because like Supergirl was KFC. Supergirl went to KFC. It's like, okay. It's a major, Superman was at DQ. Maybe they're just- He's at the Brazier. Hit the grill and Superman at the grill and chill. I don't think so. How did that happen? How did that happen? How did that happen? How did that happen? I bet it's like when a team is heading into a draft and they like give away a bunch of like two, three, four, five picks to have like one strong first round pick and they're like, this Spider-Man partnership is going to make our whole season. Yeah. They have to talk to both people on both sides of a conflict like this. They have to get the Little Caes perspective and they have to get the movie side. So here's what the Little Caes perspective is. And this is a human for sure. Our goal is to connect with customers in cultural moments and areas where they are passionate. Says Greg Hamilton, a person. We're thrilled to work with Sony Pictures Spider-Man brand new day this summer to bring the world's favorite superhero. It's not. Into our stores and homes across the country, creating a unique pizza occasion the entire family can enjoy. Oh, wait a minute. Rebecca, did I say pizza? Pizza occasion. Delete, delete, delete, delete. Pizza occasion. No, delete. Battery crunching sounds. Now over on the movie side. How is it so hard? It's so hard to say a pizza occasion. I'm not a fucking sales. Say pizza occasion out loud. No one said it. I don't have sales experience, but I've watched half of season one of Mad Men and it seems like a pretty fundamentally flawed strategy to come at it. This way and not say anything that makes the pizza sound good or Spider-Man sound cool or yourself sound like not an Android. I don't get it, man. It always sounds like the only people they're worried about reading these press releases are the other restaurants where they're like, why the fuck did they do this? And they're like, no, no, no, it makes sense. Listen, we like, like Spider-Man is known for its explosive action, humor, and fun and collaborating with little Caesars. He doesn't say this, but I'm assuming the rest of the sentence is, which seems like, you know, like a joke. Yeah. They showed up with two big bags with money signs on them and slammed them down on our desk. So, okay. Collaborating with little Caesars, a brand recognized for its, what? It's two things. Okay. Hot, ready, feed and flavor. Blank voice and blank spirit. I'll give you that. Pioneer, pioneer spirit. You think he said, you think Sony said little Caesars is known for its, it's pioneering spirit. I'm going to say bold voice and can do spirit or. Pizza, the pizza, pizza voice. Bold voice is correct. Okay, good. Bold voice is locked in. Bold and adventurous spirit. So close. Playful spirit on Spider-Man brand new day was a natural fit, said Jeffrey Godsick, who had disgraced his deity and his actions. Their passion for creative, creative, creative, creative, creative, creative, engaging content brought the Weberoni. Vomit in here. It's God six, sir. Oh, right, right, right, right, right. Their passion for creative, engaging content brought the Weberoni pizza and a replica of Peter Parker's apartment to life, offering fans an immersive way to engage with their favorite friendly neighborhood, Spider-Man. That's right, Spidey fans. Finally, you could live the dream of having an apartment in New York. Does the replica come with a little guy? Imagine. Does the replica come with a little guy who swings by and is like, give me rent? I'm having fun out here. Clean up this shithole. The movie's outside. Do you guys remember the give me rent guy from the Tobey Maguire era? Yeah. The give me, give me rent? I think his name was John Give Me Rent. I love that guy. This, wow, there's a lot of credits on this campaign. We're not going to get deep into it. But anyway, that's the Weberoni. I had it yesterday. So here's the live review. I don't like when, cheese tastes too much like cheese. And this cheese, folks, it has a cheesy flavor that no one's going to enjoy. So the Weberonis are good. 0% of Justin McElroy's are going to love it. Some people like the cheesy flavor. Also, let me save you four bucks. There is an exclusive mango spicy rush at Little Caesars that only Little Caesars has. And we got a can of it and it's not worth it. Okay. It was $4? Would you go back into the mines one more time and do that again? Do me a science favor, which is get another one of these Weberoni pizzas. I need you to remove every piece of Weberoni from it and try to reconstruct them into whole Pepperonis. So I know exactly how many Peppies we're getting on this thing. Because it could not be the usual Pepperoni pizza. Of course there's Pep in every bite. They've destroyed it. They've reduced it to a molecular level. You're going to get a little bit of Peppie. But what if you put it all together and it's like five Pepperonis? It just looks like a lot because of the way that they've scattered it. Oh, yeah. All of a sudden it's like only Weberoni. That's the only way we do it. It's Weberoni. Consumer reports. Give me one big Pepperoni that covers the entire surface of the pizza. Oh, fuck yeah. With the new Captain America shield-a-roni. Yes, dude. You remember when the Insomnia Cookies did? They did Wicked Cookies, but they wouldn't call them Wicked Cookies. They were just like green, green magic. I just noticed they have two Supergirl cookies with the Supergirl logo right on there. So they're like Insomnia. They got the word out. They're like, listen, if I can work with this or don't, we're going to do the cookies. So you might as well give us the brand. Come on. We're going to do it regardless. We're crazy. We're only open. People only remember us when they're high. That's like you cannot sue us. You'll forget us in the morning. Our brains are fried, man. We'll do whatever. We'll do whatever, man. Come enjoy our Supergirl cookies. We didn't get. Thank you so much for listening to our podcast. We hope you've had fun. This is a highlight. This is a highlight of my week every single week. And I hope you enjoyed it too. It's up there for me. It's like top three. That's cool. I'll take it. Story and Song comes out in two weeks.

We got a bunch of stuff over at McElroyMerch.com.

Come hang out. I also want to mention that every Thursday by afternoon, probably about 1, I think, is going to be the set time, Eastern. I'm playing every game that Tim Curry's been in Last week, it was "Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers." Next week is Wing Commander 3, Heart of the Tiger, where Tim plays Melek and additional Kilrathi voices. If you missed that first episode, you missed Tim Curry doing a New Orleans accent for the entire game. And it is one of the worst things I've ever heard from a professional. And he can handle it. Tim can handle it. It's all love. Like, it's all love. It's all love. It's his first game. Maybe he'd never acted before. I don't know. You can still check that out at the McElroy Family YouTube channel. It'll be in the live tab where you can also watch Griffin talking about every game ever made and me playing Timberborn in New York City working with the Beavers. We're also doing a six thumbs, one heart run of Dark Souls right now that's going shockingly well. We are splitting one Dark Souls body and we're absolutely beating ass. Yeah, man. So, yeah, if you follow McElroy Entertainment System on Instagram, they'll let you know anytime we go live. It's nearly every day. So that's your best bet. Your best bet. Thanks to Montaigne also for the use of our theme song, My Life is Better With You. I really dig it. I really dig the track. I really dig the tune. I'll throw something. I got this Knight Solaire for Father's Day. The guy from Dark Souls just talking about him. And I don't want to throw him because he was a gift. I mean, I could throw this shirt, SM58, that's sitting right next to me. Oh, hey. I got something. What about this? Ah! Justin's got, who is, what was his name again? Remind me of that Ronsall's name? I don't know. He's in my house now. He was the Crocheted Nightmare. The Crocheted Nightmare. I'm not sure throwing him is a great idea. No, throw him. Throw him. Your name looks like curly fries. Are you going to yeet him? Okay. Oh, get back up. Take the headphones off and really give her a good shot. Oh, God, you're right. You're right. You're right. I've gotten feedback that your chucks haven't been great. I want to see a big one. Yeah, Coach is on you this season. Smash it. You missed everything. How did you miss everything? My name's Justin McElroy. I'm Travis McElroy. I'm Griffin McElroy. This has been My Brother, My Brother and Me. Kiss your dad square on the lips. Life, ah, it's better, it's better with you. This is true, ah, it's better, it's better with two. My life, ah, it's better with you.
