This episode of "Destractable" blends absurd humor with personal anecdotes and satirical commentary. Hosts Mark and Bob engage in a competitive game where they escalate descriptions of everyday experiences—like book fairs, taxes, and summer camp—into increasingly ridiculous and imaginative narratives. James shares a funny story of his son singing “I like to fart it, fart it,” which becomes a recurring joke. Wade recounts embarrassing moments involving dogs and outdoor antics, while Bob enthusiastically promotes 3D printing and critiques societal norms through humor. The show pushes boundaries by linking mundane topics—like taxes or dentists—to religious references, even suggesting one can "one up God" by getting a good set of teeth. The segment on summer camp is both fun and oddly theological, with participants using scripture to justify escapism. The game reaches a peak of escalation, culminating in a final "double double" moment where Wade’s missed opportunity to double down on a religiously-themed claim is mocked as a pivotal failure. Despite the chaos, the episode remains entertaining, self-aware, and deeply rooted in the hosts’ personalities. Bob ultimately wins with 17 points, while Wade, though entertaining, loses due to a failed strategic move. The episode ends with a surprise: Bob breaks the "no drawing" rule, resulting in a future penalty of one point—adding to the show’s signature mix of humor, absurdity, and playful rule-breaking.
Good evening, gentle listeners, or watchers, and welcome to "Destractable", this episode. Multitudinous Mark, perfection personified, faxes foot, then plays to the loyal. Botox, Bob, recounts James as joyous James, prints like a pro, sleighs the stank, loves thick hardwood, and weaponizes taxes. Weenawade, poops in public, backs bacon power, threatens their nation, and advises assaulting the divine, from Jonesing hard to naked marsupials. It's time for. That sounds good! Now sit back, and prepare to be distracted, and enjoy the show. Hello, and welcome back to "Destractable". I know you've been Jonesing for an episode going from 2 to 1 must be hard, but we're all going to get through it. We may not be the same on the other side, but we're all going to get through it. That's what she said. Sorry, sorry, I could, I'm sorry, sorry, continue. Cut that out, Alexian, cut that out. No, no, we're gonna, Alexian doesn't work here. Wait, Sam, I made it that back in. Sam, kill Alexian. Whoa, whoa, whoa! Uh, god, Ian, kill Mark, I win. Whoa, whoa, whoa! Podcast out? Alright, so I'm the clone of Mark, we've gone through multiple versions of me. If you don't know how this all works, it is different pretty much never. It is always the same in that one of us hosts. I guess it's kind of different, because we all host differently, and some of us read the rules, do we remember the script? Yeah, we did have a script. We had a script once upon a time. I don't remember. Yeah, I don't know that you ever used it, but Mark and I had a thing that we looked at. Never had a thing that I know of. Anyway, I host these two compete. I have a game that changes almost every time. Sometimes we do sequels, but this week I've got a new one for you. But I'm gonna read you the title that is not the title of this episode, which I was really, really, really excited about. But I could not think of where to take it. Loser gets plastic surgery. I really like the name of that. Man, I'm glad that one didn't make the cut. I think there's something there, like the perfect describe. I'm gonna just have that there. It's someday. I've always thought I would look good with Botox. There's that's fair, Bob. I choose to win that episode, then. All right, each one of you better compete hard. It's gonna be tough. Well, we need a handshake, too. We enter each episode. Fresh new people who have lived their lives. And now that we have done, gone down to one week, surely this week, we are definitely engaged. We've lived life. We have a small talk to bring you the table. New exciting adventures. I can't wait. Who wants to go first? James told a new joke this week. I can't compete with that. The story is, I'll just tell it. It's pretty funny. We listen to music. I was driving him in the car. I was meeting him. We listen to music. One of the songs comes up on the playlist. Is, I like to move it, move it from a Madagascar. Specifically, I think this is the one for Madagascar 3. Because it's the one by Will I Am. It has the Moto Moto bit in it, which I think is Madagascar 3 or 2. These three. Doesn't matter. Anyway, it comes on. And James recently, very recently, has started singing along with stuff. Super cute. And he's a really good, he's a really good rhythm. And he's trying to match pitches and stuff. It's very cool. And he started singing along. And I sort of was driving and not paying close attention. And he was kind of like, I like to move it, and I started popping my head. And I was like, I'll sing with him. I like to move it, move it. I like, and he was like, dad, stop. That's not the words. I was like, I'm pretty sure that's the word stop. I think. And he was like, no, I'm singing. I like to fort it, fort it. And I fucking lost it. I like, I did not notice he had changed the words. That's very creative for a three year old. I think that's hilarious. And he, I laughed enough that he was like, all right, this might be the new, funniest Joe guy ever told. And he looks, he looks up and he goes, call mom. Call mom and tell her. So I called Mandy on the car phone to tell her that he was saying, I like to fort it, fort it. Very funny. I've told everyone I talked to this story, because it's just stuck in my head. It's fucking hilarious. He's going to be a funny kid. He and I are going to write song lyrics together one day. I like, God, I hope so. I openly use his powers for good. But anyway, that's the new hotness. James, drop it bangers on the weekly basis here now. I love call mom. You're like, we have like a camera, right? So I could see his face. I have like a thing on the dashboard. You could see it where I was like, I was laughing and he was like, yeah, call mom like, yeah. And since he told that joke every time we're in the car, whatever song is on, he's just like, no, the words are, I like to fart it, fart it. Anyone? Do you remember that? He just keeps going back to it, because it's got such a good laugh the first time. One beautiful, beautiful, beautiful times. Wade, what's happened? You're a stupid life, Wade. Now you got these guys small, there's a competition. You got a small talk there? I thought, well, I do. I got one moment. I got one moment that was kind of funny for everyone else, not me. So dogs, dogs pee, dog poop, right? You got to take dogs outside and they pee and poop. And sometimes it's cold and kind of snowy, and you expect no one to really be outside. So you open the door. Sometimes I'll walk outside. I'm like, humming a song or something. Sometimes I'm like, let's go. And then at the same time, there just happens to be the neighbor's landscaping company outside of working in the yard. And so I walk outside, you know, glass is on in my pajamas, flip-flops and just like, let's go, poop. And then the dogs see that there's people. And not only do I have to look at the embarrassment of them looking over because I say that, then my dogs take off full speed, barking like they're ferocious, even though they're tiny little weater dogs, all the way over to the neighbor's yard and like run in circles around the people so I get to go fetch said dogs to make sure I have to have as much human contact after that initial greeting as possible. And that was my start to yesterday. Well, that is beautiful and horribly embarrassing. It'll just teach you to never go outside which, you know, you should have learned your lesson a long time ago. Yeah, there were four people working in their yard and they all stopped if they were going to look at the grand announcer for that moment. Oh, so you always step out your door and go, let's go poop. It just so happened that this, no, I do know every time. Okay. All right. Different things happen. Different times open the door. I know you live in LAC. Don't go over it. He does that inside for himself too. We're watching the Bengals game. It's a room full of people. The way just stands up and goes, let's go poop. But then walks to the bathroom. One of my favorites, there was a game that came out of PlayStation a long time ago called like Gex into the Gecko. It was like a little lizard that'd walk around. And the first area is like a little horror themed area and it's like kind of Scooby-Doo. But one of the things that Gex says is like party time, little lizard. And so whenever I think the dog's out, one of my more popular ones is potty time, little lizard. I'll say to them for no particular reason other than it makes me laugh. What a deep cut. So they didn't get that, yeah, I know. And then there's like a weird howl and jeez Scoob. Let's get back to the mystery van. It was a weird game. Never finished it. But I've always got the quotes of his little one liners in the overworld map. I'm giving you a point for having the exact same humor as James, because that would be a James joke. So I kept thinking to myself that whenever Bob is describing James as like, man, he and I are going to get along famously one day. No, you're going to be competitors. The whole looking around telling a joke that's either not funny anymore or you still find funny, but no one else does. And like, uh, remember guys, I said that thing. I was like, God, that's so me. Well, you know what? I treated him the same way too, because now it's been, it's been a few days. So we were in the car tonight and we were driving, we're driving back home and he did that. Some other unrelated song was on and he was like, I like to fart it, fart it. I've let over my shoulder while I was driving the car. I looked back and I was like, that's funny, buddy. That's funny right there. Anything else going on in you guys' lives? You want to get out there? Just Farts and Pooh. I mentioned it, but I feel like I have to mention it. Again, I love 3 printing. I'm 3 printing things now. I love it very much indeed. Is that a seat belt box? It's a box. It latches. They're clips. But this is all printed. The hinges are snapped together. It wasn't. It's beautiful. It's so lovely. Look at the fill. Look how glossy that finishes. I mean, you could definitely see some airlines in there. But like, that whatever. Oh, I love all the hinges are great. It's so buttery smooth. Anyway, I have a 3D printer guy now, that's what I'm shopping filaments. I'm like, how many should I buy? Is there a discount if I buy 20 or more filament rolls at once? Sure is. $0.50 off a roll. What a deal. I'll start 3D printing in 20 years whenever you guys are on to 40. 40 printing. 40 printing. Bro, I printed 6 hours last night. This is the best day of my life. Never been so productive. I just started printing paper last week. 30 printed a paper. I ran out of paper for my 2D printer, so I printed some paper. It didn't work, it jammed my 2D printer. That's so far behind I usually am on things. That's okay, man. You'll catch up someday, or you won't.
- Yeah, life will not pass you by. - I keep complaining to people like it's becoming like a thing. I'm like, what did I do? 'Cause all of my friends, including you two, we're like the same age and yet look good. - I don't have the grays, but I definitely am, I got the haggard look. I definitely got some bags under my eyes, huh? - Has life been that hard on me? You're a parent and you don't look as old as I do. What did I do? - Some people don't gray, some, I'm just a, you know, I'm a late grayer. - I grayed, I bald, I fatted, I chipped my tooth, that's not everything. - Look, you can't have fat. I have fat, fat's my thing. You can have bald, okay? I'm not gonna fight you on that one. - Stubbed my toe again, I got a black toenail. - Ever, I stubbed my toe the other week. That's my thing, you can't have that. - Yeah, Marquastos, you can't have toes, Marquastos, you have bald. - I stubbed my toe so hard, I shattered my toenail down this way. - God, I hate that. - Well, I thought I had broken it for sure and I came up and it hurt for like 15 minutes later, but I kept squeezing it and nothing seemed broken, but my toenail was all. - I kept squeezing it, nothing came out. I was like, oh, that's not good. Or is that what I want? (laughing) It all stayed inside, I don't know. - I took it off and shook it around. It seemed fun, put it back. - Look, I just, I was squeezing it to check, you know? And yeah, I heard it every time I shook it. (laughing) - See, some of us accidentally stubbed our toes. Marquastos, because he just wants to feel, no, no, that's not what it is. - Just to see if his foot can take it. - You would never do that, 'cause you're a perfect host and a perfect person. - Good morning. - Yes. - No points. - Damn it. - I'll give you a quarter of a point. - Imagine setting your makeup, then forgetting it's even theirs. - Meet new grippy setting mist from Mabelie, New York. Jelly mist technology locks in your look for up to 24 hours with flexible all day comfy grip. No tightness, no stickiness, no residue. Just plump, dewy, hydrated skin that still feels like your skin. Try new grippy setting mist from Mabelie, New York. - Maybe it's Mabelie. ♪ I'm not a perfect person ♪ - You got that song stuck in my head now, 'cause you said that. ♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ♪ ♪ No reason, but man, have I never once seen or read out loud ♪ ♪ The name Huba Stank and thought, man, what a great band name. ♪ So I like your music. It's something personal. It's just just ridiculous. - Nothing personal. You all just suck as people. - Lots of people like Huba Stank. It's just a me thing. This is a me thing. This is my beans, okay? This is my bean soup. Take away point? - No. - Well, no. - My life has been like a spinning wheel, Mark. It feels like every morning I wake up in a coin flip, decides how my day's going to go. Anything, is segue points, anything? - Wait, do you want to take a step in it? Guys, I've been working on this episode for a long time, and it's finally time to present not the perfectest crime, segue? - No. (laughs) - All right, no one gets to segue point. The name of this game. I'm gonna tell you the name first. It is, that sounds good. - All right. We've been doing a lot of listener-focused episodes. Have we? - I think he means viewer. - Sorry. (laughs) - Oh, it's it. I'm the drawing episode. - Listers are being real spoiled lately. - Those spoiled listeners, those dirty spoiled listeners. - Ungrateful jerks. - We've been doing a lot of visual episodes. So it's time that we do an episode that is in the similar event of things that we've done before, and I'll explain how we're gonna do this. But you are not allowed to draw. That doesn't mean you can't, but you will be penalized if you draw. - One second. - All right, you're good. It's okay. - All right. - What was that? - It was a phone, man, here's. - Oh, okay. - Were you taking a picture of me? - It probably looked that way, but no, I was responding to a text just really dramatically. Anyway, as you were saying. (laughs) - Must have been important. So this is how it's gonna go. You guys are gonna take turns as we usually do, and you guys are gonna try to make something sound good, right? But don't make it sound too good right away because after you're done saying it's good, the next person's gonna make it sound even better. And so long as you clever little boys can keep making it sound better than the other person, you'll keep going and whoever has the best astounding thing that I say, and I have some prompts here, will win that point, and there will also be points awarded for whoever makes me laugh in the inner. - So we both do and don't wanna leave room for our opponent. - You want to calculate. If you can come out of the gate, making it sound like the most unbelievably good thing in the world, I say take that leap, but be careful because escalation's a thing, and naturally letting your opponent play off of something that you're saying is gonna give them ammo that might make it sound even better because they could always just go, "That plus one!" And that might make it sound good. But I wanna allow you to add the same thing that you did before, that your opponent did blah, blah, blah, these rules are real fuzzy, they'll all be broken. If it's funny, that's the only thing that matters, especially with the drawing thing, but you gotta be careful. Don't draw unless you're really, really, really there 'cause this is a listener episode, right? - Understood, no draw unless we want to. - Unless (laughs) - That is the rule here. - Don't do it unless the game. - I have a wide variety of things, not that many, but I'm knowing you guys, we won't get through this list. - Who it wants to be heads? - Me, all right, heads never dead. - Boy, that looks like it might be Tails, Bob! - Hey David, we can quit flips. - I want you to make sound good a book fair. This is like from school, could be whatever grade you wanted to start in, could be an adult book fair, but I'm thinking a childhood book fair, maybe you're talking to, James is grown up and he's scared of books or something like that. You gotta make it sound good, but not too good. - Okay, so you're getting allowance. It's not really enough to buy a video game or any other really crazy stuff you might want. You have some money and you're looking for somewhere to unload a little bit of it. Scholastic book fair has got some stuff for you to look at. They got books, they got skinny books, they got chapter books, they got pencils, they got bookmarks for reading books, they got some good stuff, I'd recommend it. - All right, yeah, that's the end. - Yeah, that was a great start, I think tactically perfect. - Wade, so do I start off by describing anything and he said that I'd move on completely to something else? - No, he'd just make it sound good. - Picture this, right? You look into a room, you see a bunch of thick paper, cardboard, wooden covers, filled with paper. Doesn't sound all that appealing at first, right? - Have you, you've been to a book fair, right? - You know book fairs, right? - You're picturing a bunch of books and the initial image is not all that exciting, right? 'Cause a lot of people look at books, they think like, you know, books are for nerds, books aren't fun, whatever. The initial impression of a book is, it's effort, but I want you to think, just close your eyes and imagine this from a butterfly in the sky. I can go twice as high, take a look, it's in a book, reading rainbow of sorts. I can go anywhere, friends to know, ways to grow a reading rainbow. I can be anything, take a look, then a book, a reading rainbow. That's a book, a book fair, infinite possibilities. Everywhere you're looking, you're seeing those books I describe, they don't look all that interesting, but that book over there, that will put you into space. Any planet you can imagine, you're seeing the stars, it will take you there, the bottom of the ocean, to the time of the dinosaur, medieval battles. A book fair is more than just a pile of books. It's anything and everything. All places and no places, all at once. It's the place we should all want to go. - That's beautiful, that's really nice, man. - Thank you, part of that is copyrighted lyrics from the show "A Reading Rainbow". I never would have known, and I had no rules against stealing, so you're fine, all right, Bob. - If I share, I screen, do I share the audio? - All right, but you're on thin ice, you're on thin ice. - I'm gonna make it sound so good. You don't really need to look, but you can look if you want at the what's about to play. My opponent did make a good point. Books are effort, books are difficult, books are hard. I'm not gonna try and convince you that that's a good thing. I'm gonna let my friend, Neil deGrasse Tyson, convince you that that's a good thing. - There's very little in life that's worth achieving. It isn't hard. Those things that are hard are hard because most people can't do it. That's why we say they're hard. If you work at it and achieve it, and you continue that throughout your life, you are distinguishing yourself among others around you by what you have achieved. And those who rise the highest or those who keep solving hard things. - Thanks, Neil.
(laughing) - I feel like he said it all. (laughing) - Read the book. - Uh-huh. - That's deal to Crest Tyson, dude. I got to defend Bob here for a minute, hold on. - Yeah, look, he'll set it. He'll set it all. - Did either of you mention a book fare? - Yes. - Yeah. - No, not you, Wade, him or Neil the Crest Tyson? - Yes. - Yeah. - No, okay, that sounded good. That sounded very good. I'll give you that, Wade. Neil the Crest Tyson is an icon of our time and may be talked about for years and years, but you know who else has talked about to serve Francis Bacon all the time. I talk about him, you talk about him, we live and breathe, serve Francis Bacon. You know what he said? Knowledge is power. Maybe you don't want to read fiction. Maybe what you want is fame, fortune, to lead, to control, to take charge of your life. And to do that, you need power. And what gets you power? What's there for Francis Bacon's knowledge? You know what's in books? Knowledge, lessons from throughout history, lessons of time, lessons of economics, of governments, lessons of how to get into people's minds, to lead, to influence, to change, and to charge, to take control of your life, maybe your community, maybe your country, maybe the world, maybe beyond. All of that is in books. Where do you find books, the book fare? - Yeah, that sounds pretty good. - Knowledge is power? How about this? Power is power. And power is money. And nobody likes spending their own money on things. You earn that allowance. You should be able to save that to buy your copy of Halo 2 at the midnight release. You shouldn't have to buy books with that. That's your money. But you know what will get your parents to give you money? Their money to spend on whatever you want, asterisk, the book fare. If you tell your parents that there's a book fare at school, they're legally obligated to give you some money. Because if they don't give you money for the book fare, they don't want you to learn. Money is power. Keep your money. Tell your parents about the book fare. Boom. That sounds great. I love it. Wait, can you make it sound any better? Oh, yes. On the first day, God created some stuff. Eventually, on one of the days, He created us and led us creating books. Therefore, God created books. Where do we find information about God? That's right, the Bible. What's that? A book. Is that book sold in the book fare? Probably not. But other books that mention God probably are. Those are tied to the Bible because they also mention God in the Bible. So if you want to be closer to God, you need to go to the book fare. And God pretty high up on the food chain. Somebody I say even higher up than our parents. Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo. [LAUGHING] In the book fare. We're going to hell. [LAUGHING] Print that on your t-shirt to sell it your book fare. Yeah, I think a Bible defer to you. Did that sound appealing, more appealing? It sounded better in given the full context of it. Maybe it to someone. I think I have to call it for Bob because I don't want to go to that book fare where I go. Then you want to go to hell just to see if your body can take it? No, no, no, no. Interesting, interesting. I'm making notes of that for the future. All right, I'm going to give it to Bob, all right. So that was very good. Now, uh, wait, you're going to go. And this time, you're going to make sound good taxes. Paying taxes pays for other things we like. We all contribute. Those things get made. Therefore, taxes are good. Look at it. Good start, Bob. Look, it's tough. Nobody likes losing money. That's why taxes are great. Because when you file that $1040 easy, that's simple. One sheet of paper, you send it in. Maybe it's turbo tax, not sponsored, whatever. However, you do it. Takes you 20 minutes, send it in. What do you get back from big daddy government? You get a tax return. That's right. This week, we're buying that 75 inch TV. We're trading in our Xbox Series S to get a PS5 because the Xbox was a mistake. Whatever you want, baby. As long as it's approximately $600 to $800 or less, you're getting it. Happy tax season. That sounds pretty good. Wade, can it get better? Some people see taxes and they get afraid. What if I mess up my taxes? What if I get in trouble for not filing them? What if I file them incorrectly? And therefore, those people are always going to pay their taxes and give you infrastructure. So, whoops, you don't pay yours. You get to pocket that pocket, that's what I call pocketing. You get to pocket that money and get to enjoy all of the things taxes pay for 'cause others are paying for them. I love taxes. I just move and change my name every once every few years. All of a sudden, all the benefits of taxes without the having to pay. Welcome to the life of content creation, everyone. (laughing) New channel, new me. Taxes, ma. All right, that sounds really good, man. I'm gonna give you a going to jail point. I think you did make it sound good. So, Bob, you gotta make it sound better than that. You don't need to go to jail. You just need to make enough money that you can hire someone to go to jail for you when you're fraudulently filed taxes or finally discovered by the old IRS. That's what accounts are for. They're just the middleman that takes the fall. When somebody up the food chain figures out you've been lying about how much money you make, turns out there's no consequences. Taxes are fantastic. As long as you make enough money to avoid all consequences, who cares? You're fine. Send as many accounts to jail as you need to. You'll be fine, don't be fine. Just keep a higher new one. They'll file your taxes, just lie to 'em. They can't do nothing about it. It's easy, it's free money. That's for your real estate. So, so it should be clear, your strategy is to hire accountants and make them take the fall for you. Yeah, that's what they're for. I mean, that does sound pretty good. I guess I didn't have to qualify that this sad to be rational or logical in any way. That sound pretty good. I don't have to change my name. I mean, that does sound a little better. I'm presuming that you believe everything I say, though it sounds better as long as you believe me. Hey, yeah, all it's got to do is sound good. So that sounds good. Wait. All right, so the Bible says. (laughing) Authorities are God's servants. And should be paid taxes. And Jesus himself said, "Render to Caesar, the things that are Caesar's." Do you know how we label some things that are ours versus someone else's in life? We put a name tag. We put a name tag on ourselves. It says, "Hi, I'm so-and-so." You open a book and it says, "Property of insert name there." So, here's how we get around God. We write our name and make name tags. And we put in all the stuff that we want. Therefore, affirming and assigning ownership to that item. Then someone sees it and it says, "Property of wait." Even though these are the tags as it says, he technically owes. This is his. It's still his property. So I just write my name on all of my money, all of my things, my house, my neighbor's house. Everything I want is mine. It has my name on it. Isn't that what we say matters? Thanks, God. Thanks, Jesus. Love the loophole. (laughing) Wink, listeners. (laughing) You winked. Winked, winked. All right. We're going around God's back, right? I don't know why that's going around God's back. But you don't sound good. Well, you know, I'm just using his only loophole. (laughing) For listeners, he clashed. Prayer hands. (laughing) His only loophole. I'm not smited yet for saying so, right? All right, Bob. Changing audience. Hello, real listeners. You and I already know the truth. I don't really have to make this sound that much better. Taxes are just the tools that we wield to keep those that belong below us down there where they belong. If you don't make enough money, that you're still subject to taxes, and you probably can't even hear this. You probably don't even own a set of headphones that allows you to play this part of the podcast. There's going to be a bunch of people. Tax paying losers rushing to the sub-right. And they're like, "Oh, there's 68 seconds of white noise "in this week's episode." Somebody tells that they don't have to know about this part of it. We already know the truth. Taxes are just the weapon that we use to beat our fellow man into submissions. Now back to the regular episode. Anyway, taxes, am I right? (laughing) Sorry to web, but I kind of like the secret segment that only-- Oh, what? I didn't hear each other. Oh, it's some technical difficulties there, everybody. I don't know what happened, but man, that did not sound good for the majority because white noise doesn't sound good. I was just trying something, you know? It is, I really appreciate it, but by making it so exclusively sounding good for the majority, that white noise was grating. Wait, I don't think Mark could hear. Hmm. No, what's all right, no, go on. Yeah, sorry, it's just like technical difficulties. Must be Riverside. You lost all this money on the movie. Oh, fuck, man, that movie costs so much. (laughing) Wait, congratulations! I win, I never expected this. Bob, it's back to you, are you ready? Yep. You're gonna make this thing sound good. A lot of people fear it, growing up. Well, some people, you know, really are into it, but not that many, I wouldn't think. You're gonna try to make sound good. Dentist. Sorry, I should-- No, I like that, you know, that's a good prompt. You know what? No, actually, I was, no, I like dentist. I like that.
dentist? Let's do dentist. You like the idea of all your teeth fallen out? No, you don't. You don't have to answer that. Nobody likes that. That's a nightmare that I'm pretty sure everyone takes turns having across the entire world, probably throughout the universe. You know how you avoid having your teeth fall out? Go to the dentist. Yeah, they're going to scrape the shit out of your teeth. Yeah, your gums are going to bleed. That's going to feel like there's a bunch of knives on your teeth and your gums and your tongues going to be fucking miserable. But it's that or all your teeth fall out in real life like your nightmare is coming true. So the choice seems obvious to me. This makes you want to do a sequel that's called that sounds bad. You can't write that down. That's a good idea. That sounds good. Alright, next time we'll do that. Actually, be better way to do this game. But we'll stick to it. I'm out of my word. Wait. I actually have always been a person who's preferred the dentist over the doctor. The doctor, they're hitting your knees, they're squeezing your arm with the blood pressure cuff, they're injecting you with needles. And I don't really enjoy that. They're drawing your blood, begging you all when they feel and tap on to all your organs and stuff is very uncomfortable. You go to the dentist, you lay back, open your mouth a little bit. So when I bite, probably do when I sleep, mouth open. Get really comfortable. Just kick back, do nothing. Well, everyone else is just kind of doing their thing. It's very relaxing and easy going. Some really good, interesting dentist office, they'll put like little pictures or little like words and saying, they'll put things like on the ceilings you have something to look at and read. They'll have TV screens to watch while you're having the work done, something to distract, music playing in the background. It's just like kicking back on the couch and relaxing. Well, everyone else does the work. You know what they're working on? Making you better. Prettying you up. Cleaning your teeth. Make sure you're not getting sick. A beautiful, wonderful experience. Damn, that does sound good, Bob. Yep. All right, thanks, man. No, I got this. I got this. I had a night. I was going down a brappin' hole, but I don't need it. I think dentists are misunderstood. Yeah. Is it creepy that some person wants to stare at my mouth for 90 minutes twice a year? Probably a little bit. Is it creepy if they make little happy sounds while they're doing it? We're trying to make conversation while I'm clearly unable to speak. Yeah, that's kind of weird. But they're the happiest people I think you'll ever interact with. I've never met a dentist who was a dick. You know why? Because they know they're doing God's work. They know they're out here keeping your teeth where they belong so you could smile bright up at the heavens and please your Lord. They're doing the Lord's work. Dentists are just servants who are called to serve that one very specific area of your body. And I, if you don't like the dentist, if that doesn't sound good to you, then I guess you don't like God. Sounds pretty good to me. I love, yeah, this sounds amazing. I love the religious tilt. I love it. It's spilling up at the Lord. Yep. I love it. That sounds so good. Wait. I'm glad that Bob brought that up because according to the Bible. God has depicted some times of having human features. But it also says not to take that literally. God. Oh, my God. I got your back, man. Oh, sorry, sorry. Jesus Christ. So God likely doesn't have teeth, which means you go to the dentist and you get that work done and you keep those pretty white pearly teeth right where they are. You're one up in the big guy. You're better than him. He doesn't even have teeth. You know what the healthcare like was probably back in Jesus was around. Not as good. Meaning your pride teeth are probably better than his too. So you want to one up the big guy and his boy? Go to the dentist. Who would have any people get to say I got one up over God? Could be you. What the fuck is wrong with you guys? I don't know, man. I love it. It sounds. That sounds so good. But I have a whole new strategy for this. You I'm talking to you. Yeah. You right there sitting there listening. I was pointing with my voice at you. I'm glad you could hear it and we're on the same page. You I will give you a crisp $100 bill every time you go to the dentist. And there's no cap on that. Go multiple times a day. I don't give a fuck. I just want dental hygiene to become important in this country. Maybe across the whole world. It's a pilot program. But we're trying to expand. I will give you a crisp $100 bill. Just go see the dentist and let him do whatever creepy shit they want to do to your teeth. It'll be great. That was a wild ride. I but hey, oh, a crisp $100. That's pretty good. All right. That sounds good. All right. Wait. Have you ever heard the phrase knowledge is powered? Do I have another one for you? Have you ever heard about taking a bite out of the competition? You know what you need to take a bite out of the competition? Heath. You know, it gives you teeth to make sure your teeth are in good shape. The dentist. You know, who doesn't have teeth as previously mentioned. Big man upstairs. So if you want to take a bite out of the competition and rule all the cosmos, you're going to need your teeth. You know how you do that. You go to the dentist. Then money becomes irrelevant because you can be like, oh, on the 13th day we created a billion bucks and go and bite whatever the fuck you want. You can make whatever the fuck you want. So go to the dentist. It's a stepping stone toward God, them. Just bite God. Get him out of this. Just go to the dentist. You'll become God. God damn it. I'm sensing a trend with my ideas. No, that does not sound good. I'm pretty sure. Man, it's funny. You want to do this? Become God. I'm going to give you a point for that. All right, Bobby with the dentist round. All right. Let me look up some more religious contexts for whatever's next. I got a time for maybe one, maybe two more. Who's first? This time is a major going first. Yeah, you're going first. See how quickly we get to God here. We're going to summer camp, boy. We're going to summer camp. This is what I was going to say before. Make that sound good. Some people are afraid of it. Some people have good time. That time it's good. All right. So you guys have heard of Bible camp, right? No one ever wants to go there. You know what sounds a lot better? Summer camp. Do you like running around the outdoors? You like chasing boys or chasing girls around having a good time. Get to be flirtatious. Go swim. Go learn skills to survive in the wilderness. Chase bears. Swing on swings. All of these things are possible. Minus maybe a couple of them at summer camp. Where you get to get away from your folks for a while and just enjoy nature. Enjoy life. Enjoy being you. Enjoy your age. Enjoy the weather. Summer camp. Damn, that was really good. I was really creeped out how your smile crept up one angle part of your mouth at that time. Thank you. But it's not visuals have nothing to do with it. Even if that creep me out, it didn't matter. That sounded really good. That's okay. It was really just to get you to cast me in your next movie. The creep smile. Bob. What's the one thing that ruins the summer? I know we all just thought it at the same time. It's parents. You don't need them around. Spoiling your fun. Telling you not to do that stupid thing you're about to do. Not letting you go sleep over at your friends house. All you want to do is go sleep over at your friends house. Well, what if you all go sleep over somewhere where your parents can't get to you somewhere where you're far far away from the loving embrace of your parents. It would take them possibly days to even come anywhere close to helping you if something went wrong. That's right. You should go to summer camp. There are no stupid parents at summer camp preventing you from doing anything you might want to do. No matter how dangerous or life-threatening or fun. It's probably fun. It sounds fun. You should do it. Do it. It sounds fun. Do it. Come on. I think you should do it. Come on. Go to summer camp. I don't feel compelled. I feel compelled. Does it feel good? Weirdly no, but I'm still going to keep the game going. They see if our summer can take it. All right, wait. Can you please make it sound better? You know, looking back on life nostalgia is something that kind of hits hard. We look back at things that we got to experience and kind of want to relive them or have regrets sometimes. And some of the summers, getting to have that break between going to school and then you have that summer break. Sometimes it seems to go by so fast and some of the memories start to blur together when you don't really do anything particularly exciting. It's like, yeah, I play games. I went swimming, but summer was just gone. But people that talk about things like going to summer camp, they have experiences. They're not just are unique and involve meeting new people that you don't just see in your everyday life even during the summer breaks. But you get to meet new people that maybe have friendships or relationships, significant others that last a lifetime and not to mention summer camp on top of just being fun and having something fun to look back on. It's something that looks good just to talk about. If you tell someone like, yeah, I went and I learned skills, life skills. I learned independence. I learned how to think. I learned leadership skills at summer camp because I led the whatever troop and did the whatever thing. Those are things that people look for. You're trying to get some steps ahead of people for your first job. Hey, I've never worked before, but I was in charge of this group at my summer camp.
It's something not everyone has. Summer camp is a fun time. It's something you will cherish the rest of your life And it's something that will help you get a step ahead begin your life in new summer camp. Time up to death. Do the smile All right, man, that sounds really good. No editors make that look good. Good. They see it looks good now. Okay good All right, Bob. Let me find God. How does God connect the summer camp? That's what I was googling - yeah Let's break it down summer the best season the hot season. It's there's the less clothes The sprinkler in a front yard Bikes with your buddies. That's right summer and camp. That's where you go back to that's where it's safe When you're out, you're not safe. You're you're in there's bears out there But when you head back to camp and you're safe. Everyone's at camp. That's back at camp. Gary's back at camp, too They're all back everybody headed back already. They're back at camp camps where you got to go summer camp Summer camp You know in a weird way going to camp sounds really good because I'm so scared of this person. I met in the woods Who came up to me was like the hot season huh? Let's close Your parents can't get to you they can help you at all. I I think it's a guy camp sounds good right now I want to go to camp real bad are weighed Genesis 822 says as long as the earth endures Seed time and harvest cold and heat summer and winter day and night will never cease in the Bible Summer symbolizes the season of intense heat harvest and God's bounty and let me tell you the season a less Close and more water that sounds like a bounty to me and I would love to spread my seed and get to be a part of that Harvest summer camp where sexual fantasy becomes real sneak out at night avoid those camp counselors and you can Oh my god I miss what I miss interpret there. I'm not really a Theologian Imagine setting your makeup then forgetting. It's even theirs meet new grippy setting mist from Maybelline New York Gel to mist technology locks in your look for up to 24 hours with flexible all-day comfy grip No tightness no stickiness no residue just plum do we hydrated skin that still feels like your skin Try new grippy setting mist from Maybelline New York. Maybe it's Maybelline Was that all Genesis 814 was that all? No, that's stopped after the first set Let me make sure I'm not misscored the Bible entirely there and God says summer camp you can All right, that doesn't sound very good. I'm not gonna lie. Are you sure you don't like the fuck well? I mean I'm not quite scared like I was with Bob, so I'm gonna give him I'm gonna give him win Unfortunately, but you you did get another point for that being the scariest. Oh, I had a whole thing queued up Do you want to say the thing? It's the last? Well, I was just gonna let my friend Neil deGrasse Tyson Tell you why you should go to summer camp. All right, okay I feel like our religious audience may not like me and Bob too much after this Yeah, never mind. Sam cut that out. That's fucking stupid. All right. He was stupid, but you still won Yeah, wait. Yeah, my last segment didn't go as planned either. Let me redo mine. I didn't get to redo by I just you can delete yours if you want You will still lose Wade. I'm doubling down fact. I'm gonna use my one daily double to double down Oh shit, he remembered the daily double rule. I think it's in the constitution somewhere. You know what Wade? I'm gonna do this just for you. I think it's unfair that Wade's using his one and only daily double It's a good for me or bad for me. Well, it's either really good or really bad So I want tails and you want heads? Heads means that it's fair and it will be made doubly fair Tails means it's unfair and it will be made doubly unfair no heads heads means that's unfair Which means you win and which he will not get a daily double yeah and or no It just means there will be no daily double But if it's all tails he will get a daily double double which means he'll get a daily quadruple I don't know if that still means I get anything out of it But I'll at least get the claim. I used it. I'm doing this for you, Wade. Thanks man. I think Wow. Oh, it's tails tails. What the fuck does that mean? You have to do something I guess I don't know What does that mean in a daily double you wager, but it lets us say there's four points up for grab if you can make it sound Better than anything before then I guess I'll give you your daily quadruple I sort of thought that would just pass and it'd be like a funny. I didn't think that would we'd hit the okay Well, I didn't think either. I'm not prepared for this, but I've got something. All right. This year you're on the spot It's summer camp. You gotta make it. What's your favorite scripture? Go. All right While summer camp is not explicitly mentioned in the Bible the concept of camping with God is and How can you camp with God in the summer without going to summer camp? You got to do it alone God also encourages community and togetherness. I think probably Listeners are gonna tell us where in the Bible it says that and therefore hence my double double concludes that I don't only can you have a lot of fun together in summer camp, but it'll get closer to God And that's where every single one of these ends because that's where I take it. He really didn't want those points Huh, he didn't want those points at all. He said about those points at all and Mark looks really great today And if he wants to continue to look so we should definitely go to summer camp. Oh, man. Otherwise the dentist Nevermind the dentist is gonna get you Who would have a fucking owl again? Someone please help me. Oh man, that was the worst crash in Burn I've ever seen just reminds you that even on Jeopardy people do lose those things. We do lose in boy outy. I bet everything You bet everything. Uh, so you won't lose points, but you're not getting any so what is spectacular moment? I have half a point to quadruple Uncortruple quadruple Yeah, I'll give you a quarter of a point. Oh, that's my quadruple. That's my double that's a point and that's gonna be really funny So later I'll tell you why Just so you all know we're recording this later that we usually do so I think we're all a little fucking crazy right now Just you man. Okay, well the Bible says all right, we're wrapping it up. We're having up. It was a high scoring game I'll tell you guys that much. I want to start off with you Wade. Uh-oh. Let's go poo Same humor as James that gets you a point Look at me. I don't remember what that was, but it was a funny even you got half a point for toe escalation Explain that later I gave you a quarter of a point for being nice and then I gave you a quarter of a point for the double double So all of those make one more point bend to the book fair. That was funny for some reason So I'll give you that on the first day God created book very funny Going to jail For tax fraud the Bible says dot dot dot and that's when you started that and then you closed it with His holy loophole which I think might be the most sacrilegious thing that has ever been said on this podcast so great That's really good. Yeah You won the taxes around that was good. Hello God when Bob's audience started playing uh go to dentist become God Bible camp Scariest entry which honestly Bob's was pretty scary. Uh, so you got 14 points And I know I said high scoring around because for me that's high scoring. I don't usually give that many points Bob the new James joke and then the follow-up of call mom though it's each a separate point Uh, listen to Wade's stupid life very funny You're 3d printing the toe jokes so there was something about the toe that you made a joke I was talking about or something and then so you got the point but then Wade you got the Escalation point half a point for that. So that's how that worked You went first Congratulations Neil deGrasse Tyson made a pit stop at our podcast book fair exploit for halo money You won the book fair round Xbox was a mistake Uh elitist listeners moment that sounds bad for giving me an idea for a future episode Smiling up at the Lord you have a crisp one hundred dollars lie point That is that is a lie point because I assume that you're lying about that. That's true You won the dentist round and then less clothes And then you won the summer camp would get you 17 points to 14
Man that double double really would have come in handy Wade. Yeah, that would really would have evened up You could have taken a pause like a moment and really think about it like that. No, that's not my jam, man I dive in either make the landing or I face plant. Yes So with a lead of three points the game is still within reach for Wade Bobby you're leading into the final round and I said something I was gonna add to the wheel in the last time I've already forgotten what it was Screwed from the start or something cuz like I think you said you were gonna add most religious references to the wheel Yeah, let's yeah, let's let's do that. You're further from God for this from God after the episode I could be geographically do we just agree that I might win that today. Yeah, you yes. Yes, you would all right Well, just to save me a couple clicks. Let's see how many spins we're gonna do before I switch over and I bet it's three. Nevermind. Oh Man, it might have been closed out for a bob. That's okay There are chances for me to win on this wheel if the Lord allows it with a little All right, everybody ready for the one spin that will definitely have a big impact on what's going on here Oh, here we go golf rules It's a little more suspenseful now that I really can't tell what's coming up. Oh Most impressions I don't know if you guys did too many impressions here Bob that a great deal to dress dice at one point That's what I can remember. I don't really I can't recall actually doing an impression or anything. Let's re-spin that My Man show that does nothing for me now, but I still like it all right Well, that goes down 7% will definitely remember what that's supposed to be I'm I'm I've I've don't worry I'm tracking it. It's a real big number right now, so many any downs to one man show it great for us right now It's now at 23% that's still big. That's very big huge so might say huge huge just like the the whiff that Wade has on his double double that will haunt him for the rest of his days We will we will replay that moment of him losing out on the win of this game because that would have won you the game It would have actually won you the game but clearly weirdly three point lead four point double double wow congratulations, Bob I really teed it up for you too. I tried to and just like a super battle golf. I miss it every time Well Wade you can give your loser speech if you'd like I thought this was a really fun idea and to all of our religious viewers I'm sorry that I didn't go in even harder because fuck it was funny So I should have doubled down. I should a quadruple double down and then I would have gotten the points Everything would have been great and you all would have laughed really hard Probably and then prayed for my mortal soul to everyone else. I hope you enjoyed. I had a blast Bob You crushed it. Congratulations. Mark. You were at least average as a host. Good job At least that was that's the floor. He did say he did say at least. I guess.

Podcast Summary
Key Points:
The episode features a game where participants take turns making something sound more appealing, with the goal of outdoing each other through increasingly absurd and imaginative exaggerations.
Key topics include a humorous anecdote about James singing "I like to fart it, fart it" with his child, a comedic story about Wade’s dog-related outdoor encounters, and deep dives into personal quirks like 3D printing, toe stubbing, and dental visits.
The show blends satire, irreverent humor, and religious references—such as tying tax evasion, summer camp, and dentistry to biblical concepts—creating a surreal, self-aware commentary on personal values and societal systems.
Summary:
This episode of "Destractable" blends absurd humor with personal anecdotes and satirical commentary. Hosts Mark and Bob engage in a competitive game where they escalate descriptions of everyday experiences—like book fairs, taxes, and summer camp—into increasingly ridiculous and imaginative narratives. James shares a funny story of his son singing “I like to fart it, fart it,” which becomes a recurring joke.
Wade recounts embarrassing moments involving dogs and outdoor antics, while Bob enthusiastically promotes 3D printing and critiques societal norms through humor. The show pushes boundaries by linking mundane topics—like taxes or dentists—to religious references, even suggesting one can "one up God" by getting a good set of teeth. The segment on summer camp is both fun and oddly theological, with participants using scripture to justify escapism.
The game reaches a peak of escalation, culminating in a final "double double" moment where Wade’s missed opportunity to double down on a religiously-themed claim is mocked as a pivotal failure. Despite the chaos, the episode remains entertaining, self-aware, and deeply rooted in the hosts’ personalities. Bob ultimately wins with 17 points, while Wade, though entertaining, loses due to a failed strategic move.
The episode ends with a surprise: Bob breaks the "no drawing" rule, resulting in a future penalty of one point—adding to the show’s signature mix of humor, absurdity, and playful rule-breaking.
FAQs
The game is called 'Make It Sound Good,' where participants take turns describing a topic in increasingly exaggerated and creative ways, with the goal of making it sound better than the previous person.
The topics included a book fair, taxes, dentist visits, and summer camp. Each participant built on the previous description with increasingly elaborate and humorous interpretations.
Points are awarded to whoever makes the most compelling, creative, or humorous description. Additional points can be earned by making the audience laugh or by building on a previous idea in a clever way.
The 'no drawing' rule is enforced to keep the game focused on verbal creativity and humor. However, Bob breaks this rule at the end, which results in him losing one point and being noted as a memorable moment.
The episode presents taxes as a tool for personal gain and power, jokingly suggesting that people can hire accountants to take the fall for fraudulently filed taxes, or even use taxes as a way to 'win' by avoiding consequences.
The hosts incorporate religious references humorously, such as linking summer camp to biblical themes, suggesting that going to summer camp is a way to 'camp with God,' or joking about dental visits as a way to 'one up God' by having teeth.
