Welcome back boys and girls happy new year. I hope you're all recovering from new years. I know that I am I'm just kidding. I filmed this in December, but today we are going to go over the most insane hot takes we can find just to kick off the year Okay, and if you're wondering why I'm wearing a beanie. It's cold. It's fucking winter The best night to drink or get drunk is Sunday It depends what kind of drink you're doing. Definitely not get drunk at night If you want to go to like a brunch and get drunk, but you're home by like 330 that's great because then you probably will fall asleep I don't know about you, but if I have a sip of alcohol I'm going to bed like an hour later Everyone's going to say that drinking on Friday night is the best, but that's just isn't true After being up since the early hours of the morning and working a full shift Do you really want to go to the bar until late at night? Uh, I wasn't gonna say Friday. What about Saturday? Where I woke up. I had no nothing to do and then I went out that night and then I wake up and I have nothing to do That seems like the most ideal day to get hammered breakup texts are fine if you're not married I don't want to be invited out to eat for a breakup I don't want to get dressed and leave my house for a breakup Just text me and tell me you're done and that's fine I don't need a visit or a phone call My only exception is if you are married engaged or living together Oh man, I'm kind of I might be in agreement with this It depends how long you've been dating though Like I think that if you've been dating a significant amount of time Anything under a year I think is okay for a breakup text Honestly because this is a good point like I don't need you to see you in person For you to tell me that it's over Like just just text me you know what I mean like I think that's just something that when you get broken up with It's just a nice thing to throw back at the person if they text a Jewish but you could at least done it in person You coward like you could you know what I mean, but I don't know I've gotten broken up with through text Through a phone call well separately My sixth grade girlfriend called me and she and she said that we should see other people in sixth grade She said that your seventh grade girlfriend had her friend call you and break up with you on her behalf That's pretty fired dude. She sent a messenger like she's a like She sent a raven like it's great the thrones. That's awesome You imagine that that's probably the coolest way to get broken up with a bird just like lands and it's got a note That's like yeah, it's over That's be sick although if a raven showed up with a note that said it's over I would think I'm dying So that's that'd be different. Yeah, no, I think I'm I think I'm cool with this though Like definitely the exception is I mean if you're married you're not gonna text break up. That's bananas Engaged or living together. Yeah, I mean you can't text someone like hey We're breaking up if you're if they're in the next room like you can't do that. So okay, I forget about all those things I think text is fine under a year at any point as long as there's been multiple bouts of texts You know what I'm saying Like I think that like under like three months is like you could do up out of the blue text message like Well, I can't do this anymore like that's fine Up to six like but after six months there has to be like a few things like hey, I'm kind of worried about this Um, you know these things and then it's like you know what this isn't really working out like there's got to be like at least like three That you got to get to if you're gonna do it through text a year to two years A phone call may suffice depending on how far away you guys live from each other But after that you probably have to like get in person and really You know, but I agree Don't take them out to eat to break up with someone. That's a little crazy like don't break up with someone in person No, don't break up with someone like in public and have other people like that's that's embarrassing You don't want to do that make someone like cry or be upset in public or maybe they can't say the things that they want to say because you're in public Like it's not fair. Don't do it in public employees that fully work from home are becoming the weird homeschool kids of the adult world I don't even know if this is true or not people who work from a home full-time or becoming increasingly socially awkward and inept It's the hit you with the hard-eye there inept. It's like they're slowly reverting to a state of social isolation Similarly similar to what we often see with homeschooled kids It is especially pronounced in newer employees that were remote for a significant portion of their education I can see how this is a thing because and I told this I had the conversation with my oldest brother who started his own company So he was gonna work from home which he is doing now and one of the first things I told him was like dude It's not all it's cracked out to be this was before the pandemic and everyone had to like then go through that Which some people learn first hand of like this is great But then you're like I have no routine. I haven't left my house in fucking 30 days I'm depressed, you know like that's the thing that's so tough I kept a gym membership at a gym 20 something minutes away from my apartment when I was working from home all the time Just to I just to get out of the house because if I was working out in my apartment and then Like working there and I live there. I'm not leaving, you know what I mean like maybe I go outside twice to walk my dog But that's it like that's depressing dude you need to have a reason to get up and get out of the house Otherwise, you're just gonna wear pajamas and fucking you know talk to yourself all day So I kind of agree with this. I think that I don't know if it's true But I do think that working from home and you know doing that will have an effect on you. I think that it will So just be careful just be careful build good routines get out of the house Go get you know your favorite coffee maybe one day or two days a week go to the coffee shop to work or something like that You know what I mean? We don't need to chew food. This is a steaming hot bowl of pudding take. I don't like the feeling of chewing my food What a bird wrote this what the fuck is that it's something I've noticed for a while And I usually just end up mushing my food with my tongue. What? What does that even mean usually against my teeth and then swallowing it instead? What does that fucking me? Who is this? I end up mushing my f- how do you mush a piece of steak against your teeth? If you're gonna do all that work, why not just chew your teeth are right there You're pushing it up against the teeth just move it upside-down move it up and down even with harder foods Which would typically require chewing I managed to break them up in my mouth in a way that lets me swallow them without actually chewing Why avoid this why avoid the chewing so much what the fuck is next you don't want to blink you're gonna keep your eyes closed all day Just chew your fucking food you're gonna choke You're gonna die one day how'd they die they were pressing steak up against their teeth try to mush it Concert sets should not last more than 90 minutes. Oh, I am in such an agreement with this It's crazy. I was at a vampire weekend gig last night that was two and a half hours long I really like vampire weekend. They're a good live band, but it dragged and I nearly lost all enjoyment by the end I went to Taylor Swift recently and it was I will say the best concert that I've ever been to my entire life And I'm a Taylor Swift fan, okay, I'm swifting, but that shoot is so fucking long, bro And I am very impressed by her that she's able to fucking do all that because she has like nine outfit changes She's singing and dancing. She's playing the guitar. She's playing the piano and she's just like it's amazing Right the girl's fucking resting heart rate must be 42. It's incredible But the show was like three hours and maybe a bit and like If it was 45 to 49 minutes shorter It would have been so much better in my opinion There was a couple of songs in there that we didn't need But I understand what she's doing with the Aristotle thing so she has to give every album like a fair shot But we could have ripped some songs out of there none from the earlier stuff I will say that but I agree 90 minutes. That's all you need. I honestly. I'm cool with 70 minutes I'm cool at 70 minutes. Give me an hour and 10 minutes poem. We're done. We're out. Well the year should start on March 1st This would mean that the beginning of the year occurs at the beginning of spring instead of the middle of winter Meaning all four seasons would pretty much clean cleanly fit entirely into one year Instead of being winter sliced across at the end of one year and the start of the next September, October and December would also actually be month seven eight and ten Which is what those words actually mean. Whoa. Yes set oct Yeah, yeah, yeah Um All right like I like I don't I don't care like I don't know how this changes anything like you just wants it to fit cleanly like I don't I don't know and also are you familiar with Global warming the seasons are going to continue to change my guy. All right. It's the middle of winter is not You know, I'm saying it's going to start getting freezing in July one of these years Like it's common baby. Don't worry. Yeah, I mean. I'm cool with this I guess I'm more concerned with the with the daylight savings time We need to get rid of that. I think Arizona Just doesn't do it which is hilarious to me The whole the whole country is like yeah daylight savings.

what the hell it helps me focus on errands I'm supposed to do what gifts people get railed it's like I you know what I really need to lock in let me go to brassers like let me go to the hub right now and lock in because I have a project to do in addition to that it helps curate a comforting environment in my room what it's going on I like to decorate my room to reflect who I am in an artistic manner and sex is something I'm especially passionate about so it should be reflected in my personal environment porn is such a powerful decoration and it allows me to enjoy my room much more you are an addict is what you are you're a porn addict you need to take it easy I don't think that porn should be who you are as a person porn is such a powerful decoration is one of the most insane things I've ever read in my entire life not a decoration you know if you want to watch porn even if you want to watch porn every single day of your life bro do your thing do your thing I don't think that it should be normalized that it's on the background of everyone's computer when they're trying to get shit done like you want to walk into an office into a meeting and your born your boss just has porn blasting in the background and you guys are trying to talk about Q4 like I don't want that that's weird I don't think anyone should know what kind of porn anyone else kind of watches keep it private do it don't think in your in your own room but do it at your least dude if you want your fucking room to have a projector that the back wall is always just playing porn you can do that but keep that in the bedroom my die okay don't get it outside black socks should be the default not white oh no I don't like that black socks with like white shoes drives me fucking up the wall I hate that so much why has the entire world defaulted to white socks the only thing that steps directly on dirt and grime let's make it bright white who steps directly on dirt and grime with their socks it goes into your shoe unless you're walking around without sneakers on you shouldn't be stepping in dirt with your socks what are you talking about I think that all underwear should be black okay unless you're a woman and you want to have like bright colored stuff I am not really a big fan of men's underwear that's like patterned and colorful and like neon and definitely not white I'll tell you that definitely not white I have zero white underwear okay but socks I'm cool with it I'm cool with the white socks you know what I'm cool with being the default gray I'm cool with gray being the default not black and if you want to get away from white I'm cool with gray but black socks as a default it's just too strong of a color it will ruin an outfit you know what I mean white kind of like goes with everything in a way we should bring back gladiator games okay was that a TV show or were we talking about like ancient Rome killing people with like tigers but not people's heads I mean the old school gladiator fight to the death ma okay okay good yep that's the one you meant I mean the old school gladiator fight to the death matches that they had back in ancient Rome pay per view the contestants can be inmates on death row if they make it through several rounds of fighting lions tigers and other inmates they're free to go this is the most fucked up thing in the world yeah I don't want to watch murder I don't know about anyone else but I don't like watching murder real murder like who is interested in that I mean I'm pretty sensitive so I can't be watching people get their heads eaten by lions and shit or like cut in half with swords like I don't I don't want to watch that if it's game of thrones I watch it because it's fake you understand what I'm saying but like I don't want to watch people cut each other's heads off it's a hot ass take also arrest this guy at least interview him pull me to a room and interview him actually like clocks going back an hour and getting darker earlier who's this pig it feels like everyone is bummed about the time change in the US but I love it the early sunsets now mean sun is going down that means the evening has just begun whereas in June a sunset means that it's almost time for bed what time are you going to bed Peter Pan what the fuck sunset it's like 637 sunset is perfect because it's like yo get ready it's almost time because when the sun goes down the freaks come up and you're like ready to party so it's like a perfect indication of like it's time to go out but like now it's like the sun goes down and I'm like is it time to go to sleep and then I'm looking at the clock and it's fucking 530 and I'm like you telling me now that I have to stay awake for another at least five hours before I'm not like depressed thinking about how the fact that I'm so old I'm in bed by 930 what am I I've given up on my life already like because that's what the winter's doing to me now no drink is improved by ice this is such a hot take this is insane having ice and drinks does absolutely nothing but dilute the beverage so what sometimes a beverage could use a little dilution also I think it adds what you trade in dilution you get back with cold and the cold sensation is what I'm looking for if you want to cold beverage get the same beverage cold every time I see coffee beer wine or anything else in ice I think it's just to it's to just cheat the customer out of having more of their drinks see this is a thing that's going around the internet that is completely like it's wrong people go to the fucking bar and they order like an old-fashioned and they put a giant ice cube in it to keep it cold and they take the ice cube out and they're like what come much I paid for my guy if they filled the glass up with the amount without that ice cube you'd be dead before the before the drinking you know how much fucking like whiskey or whatever the fuck I think all fashions are whiskey you know how much you would have to put in there for it to fill up to that point trust me you don't want it it wouldn't taste good ice cubes in wine I think should be punishable by tar and feathering let's get that out of the way because I agree on that front don't put ice in your wine coffee I love ice coffee dude it's such a bitter drink and to have a little bit of like dilution there I think is nice I like it I think it's I think it's good also what's better than what like ice cold water it's beautiful it's beautiful I love ice I'm a big ice guy like people who order soda but they don't they're like no ice because they just want more soda bro it's time to grow up you're not a fucking you know toys or us kid anymore you can you can take a little less soda for it to be cool and crisp you just can come on fake syrup is superior to real maple syrup I like imitation syrup I do not like real maple syrup as much just because it's harder to make and it's more expensive doesn't mean it's actually any better imitation syrup is way more versatile I don't think this is a hot take but it's a hot take for me I actually like maple syrup better I like the taste of maple syrup I can see why people would enjoy the fake syrups of the world because it's just way more sweet and it's way more like whatever I just don't like how fucking thick it feels like it feels like there's a lot in it I like maple syrup because it's a little more like runny and like it's it's I feel like I'm I'm eating you know a tree in a way isn't that they tell you you know what I mean Barbers need to chill out I'm ready to read this when I was younger most Barbers were just guys that need to learn a trade in jail now they want to charge the same hourly as electricians and pull up my guy you are cutting hair you're not replacing the wiring harness in my car cool it down I mean I go to a barber and some people think that he charges a lot but he's the best in the game shout out rich the barber is it expensive yeah it's expensive but what are we talking about right now and what are we talking about right now though no I'm not even gonna put him on blast like that just know that filthy rich barber shop that's the one but but what do think about what we're talking about right now we're talking about your hair you know what I mean it's a permanent thing that you have to wear you pay for your clothes like people are paying how much money for shoes and you're just stepping on them all day you know what I mean especially women they get very expensive purses they get very expensive like they give all the designer things that you get now imagine a your haircut your hair is so important your hair could make a break your face it can make a break your outfit even you can have a cool outfit but if you got a stupid haircut it's like bro you ruined it with this fucking thing that you're wearing you know what I mean so it's an important part of your entire look in my opinion I mean actually women are paying fucking crazy shit for their hair to be fair I mean there's a lot more going on there with the layering and I mean they're dying and glazing their hair every fucking five days in my experience but I don't know yeah so that's probably why it's a little bit more but I don't I think that if you go to a really good barber and they're good at what they do it's worth the money that's just me and this is coming from someone who now has a barber who's great and who used to get their hair cut from their brother for like the first 23 years of his life all right SUVs are incredibly ugly and an unfortunate sign of herd mentality in the USA bro that's a hot ass take I love SUVs what do you mean I believe anyone with an SUV is just a sheep who bought into the American idea that we need bigger cars how is that the American idea what are we talking about what about giant trucks if you like who'd
I mean if you work in construction you're using the fucking bed for like your job, but most people are like yeah I just put my dog back there in like a fishing rod. It's like bro You don't need a fucking flatbed for that. You don't need an F-150 can anyone with a straight face tell me that they actually need an SUV due to their circumstances need no you don't need an SUV. It's just nice. I like feeling like Higher off the ground and I feel safer in a bigger car like that. I like SUVs. I like them I don't know if I'm going back to the compact. I don't know if I'm going back And I don't think I'm a sheep. If anything I'm a bull run your little ass off the fucking road dog They are less energy efficient. They are ugly and they are often a pain to navigate around or park next to if I see someone with a Black SUV. I know they're overcompensating for something. I have a Black SUV And both of those things can be true. Okay, I could be overcompensating for something with a most my Black SUV But also I think that they are great. Okay, I'm never going back Uh, and I my first car was a black Mazda and That's a compact car and it's cool. It's a nice car But I just feel weird now whenever I'm driving a car and I feel so close to the floor It's I feel like I feel safer in a bigger car And is it completely is it necessary? I think it is necessary to an SUV I'd rather have more room in a car as a passenger and as a driver than less room Why would I why would it opt for less? All right. Well, there you have it folks Some hot takes some I agree with some I don't agree with I'm on that SUV train. Okay till I die for real, you know, I'm over the little cars like that I can't it's too crazy. So we appreciate it. I hope you guys had a you know a happy new year and 2025 it's going to be a wild one and we can't wait for you guys to see what we have everything in store over at Santa Got a studio.

Podcast Summary
Key Points:
Drinking on Saturday is ideal for getting drunk due to a relaxed schedule and lack of obligations, while Friday night drinking is counterproductive after a long day.
Breakups via text are acceptable for short-term relationships (under a year), especially with prior communication, but should be avoided for longer commitments or married couples.
In-person breakups should be avoided due to public embarrassment and emotional discomfort; public or awkward settings are not respectful or effective.
Full-time remote work leads to social isolation and routine breakdowns, emphasizing the need for regular physical outings to maintain mental well-being.
Concerts should not exceed 90 minutes, with 70–80 minutes being optimal, as longer sets reduce enjoyment and strain performers and audiences alike.
The year should begin on March 1st to align with spring, creating cleaner seasonal transitions and making months like September and October feel more natural.
Ice should be avoided in drinks like whiskey or wine as it dilutes flavor; cold temperature provides sensory satisfaction without compromising taste.
SUVs are seen as symbols of herd mentality and poor design, though some users find them safer and more spacious, highlighting a cultural divide on vehicle preferences.

FAQs
Yes, Sunday is considered better because it allows time to enjoy a drink without feeling pressured to go out late. The speaker suggests that drinking at home by 3:30 PM and then sleeping helps avoid the stress of a late-night bar run.
Yes, for relationships under one year, a text breakup is acceptable. However, after six months, there should be at least three prior messages showing concern before a text breakup. For longer relationships, a phone call or in-person conversation is recommended.
Breakups should not happen in public or in front of others. Such situations can be embarrassing and make it difficult for either person to express emotions honestly or handle the emotional weight of the moment.
The speaker believes remote work can lead to social isolation and a lack of routine, which may cause employees to become socially inept, especially if they've worked from home for a significant portion of their lives.
Yes, concerts should ideally last no more than 90 minutes. The speaker notes that long shows, like a 3-hour Taylor Swift performance, lose enjoyment, while shorter sets maintain energy and engagement.
The speaker finds the idea interesting—starting the year on March 1st would align the seasons more neatly and make the calendar reflect seasonal changes better, though they note climate change makes this less relevant.
