texas my name is will defries to my right dave ruff i'm very excited for today's podcast that's
big we're on the heels of the best worst weekend which does make sense if you
diagram the sentence okay and i think this is going to have good momentum
and we just got a gram off dude and i'm laughing inside thinking about it i want someone to
diagram that sentence and tweet it to us please do dylan doesn't know how to diagram sentences
please get out of my face with that shit. You don't.
You know I'm the grammar king.
Yeah, but are you actually good at diagramming?
No, I'm actually not, no.
Do you know what to do with a gerund when you're diagramming?
Fuck gerunds.
Dude, gerunds were the most confusing thing.
Go check out the circling.
What's the at for our Instagram?
Dude, that just feels like something you should know off the top of your head.
Circling Back Pod.
Go check it out.
We just got a gram off, like Dave said.
There's our little drummer boy over here.
And while you're at it.
Yeah, Don stole my caption.
Or my comment.
What the fuck?
Sorry, dog.
What was the comment?
Little drummer boy with an eye?
Hey, our good friend Grant points out in the comments isn't that the hat dorn wore
in greece oh come on it's not pretty much that is definitely not a straw panama hat
fedorn that is a fedora with i believe guitars on it music notes music notes okay it's for
musicians right uh dave's wife alissa just, just said, oh, wow.
Nice, dude.
That's probably a good thing.
That was the most productive thing to come out of our shopping the other day for the new office.
Yes, we bought exactly zero things that day.
Yep, yep.
But we got a dope grandma, so it was all worth it. We looked at the steam machine juice.
There's so many different flavors.
Yeah, there's different types of fog.
Is that what those were?
I didn't know what those were I took a photo of them and I was like dude this is tight
for our next live event we will have steam
I'll use those when I get my make a wish done
at Ford Field
steam or fog?
what's your make a wish?
when I'm doing the steam as they run out of the tunnel
that's your make a wish
you can do it with me I can see if I can rope you in as they run out of the tunnel. That's your make-a-wish. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Yep.
All right.
You can do it with me.
I can see if I can rope you in
with the make-a-wish people.
I'm all right.
Okay.
That's cool.
I don't really have,
I don't really at this point
to my knowledge need that.
Is there an age cutoff?
There has to be.
There has to be.
I would think it would be like 16.
I don't think they're doing
make-a-wish things
for like 26-year-olds or anything.
Like Brett's definitely too old.
I'm probably out.
Yeah, once you have health insurance,
like on your own, you're probably done.
That's a good point.
Once you can rent a car.
Yeah.
I was renting cars at like 22, though.
What?
Why?
For your job?
For my job, yeah.
It's always worked out.
I think you pay like the arm arm and a leg for
it but uh what what's the uh will said you you have a website that we can buy tables and stuff
through is that the plan going forward i don't know i mean amazon i'll say this going to office
depot is not the plan going forward those are shit tables for 730 dollars excuse me why do you
have to pay for legs yeah Yeah. Legs sold separately.
Who's doing that?
Who's like, no, I'm just taking the tabletop.
Thank you.
I didn't know that.
That's why.
Yeah.
That's why the price tag was deceiving.
Oh, that's true.
The initial price was fine.
And then everything went downhill once you started tallying it up.
It's like, wait, we're paying for table legs?
Who's just setting the tabletop on the floor?
You got to have legs on that bitch.
Under that bitch, I should say. I can confidently say I don't think I'll ever shop at Home Depot.
Or, excuse me, Office Depot.
That was a terrible overall experience.
There's nowhere more depressing than Office Depots and stuff.
And the woman was like...
There's other places that are more depressing.
Dude, but Office Depot's bad.
I hate being in that.
There's always activity there, though.
It's weird.
But at the end of the day,
it's like the store to buy stuff for depressing offices.
It's just a provider.
It's the ground zero for depressing office life.
Yes.
Correct.
Is there still Office Max?
Yeah.
Office Max, I bet, is worse.
I hope no one works for these places.
I mean, if they want to do a sponsorship deal with us, then hit us up.
But otherwise, I'm going to drag them.
I don't know if they can afford that one, Will.
Live from the Office Depot Studios in Austin, Texas.
It's circling back.
They have so many stores.
They don't need these storefronts.
Go online, guys.
Yeah, you got to think
they're still online
terrestrial radio ads.
Yeah.
Hit Office Depot on Mopag.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
100%.
You got to find a table.
We'll find a table.
Tweet us your tables.
Don't tweet us your tables.
Tweet us your tables.
I don't want table tweets.
No, don't.
Tweet us your tables.
Don't do that.
And definitely don't email
Dylan at washmedia.com
your tables.
Dave, stop doing that.
Yeah, that's fucked up. I just don't want Dylan at washmedia.com your tables. Dave, stop doing that. Yeah, that's fucked up.
I just don't want tables in my inbox.
I'm going to set up an email filter.
Just set up an email filter that anything that has table in the subject line, forward straight to Dave.
Send me your periodic tables.
Speaking of, have y'all seen this chairs versus people discussion on Twitter?
No.
Yes, I have.
What?
Are they fighting each other?
Here's a question for you.
What are there more of in the world, chairs or people?
Oh, I did see this.
Oh, wow.
People.
Whoa, whoa.
Okay, let's look.
Small pals of the desk at table.
What?
Chairs, Dave.
Oh, chairs.
Chairs.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, well, that...
I totally fucked that up. I'm going to say people. It's got to be people. I think it's people. Wait, are you Chairs. Oh, yeah. Okay. Well, that... I totally fucked that up.
I'm going to say people.
It's got to be people.
I think it's people.
Wait, are you serious?
I don't think it is.
Think about your house.
Don't, don't, don't, don't.
Think about your house.
How many chairs do you have in your home?
I'm thinking of third world countries where people don't necessarily have like a surplus
of chairs.
That's what everybody was saying.
Think about all the stadiums and concert venues.
That's true.
That's true.
I didn't think about that.
And just chairs in storage closets waiting to be set out for weddings and shit.
Think about the rise of the standing desk.
It's true.
No, it makes you think.
No, it doesn't.
There's at least a million people out there standing right now.
They probably have a chair option, though, if they want to sit.
No, there's no option.
And medicine ball.
Medicine ball is not a chair.
It's got to be, I think, chairs.
There's got to be 10 billion chairs on this planet.
At least 10 billion.
That's too many chairs. 30 billion chairs. And's got to be 10 billion chairs on this planet. At least 10 billion. That's too many chairs.
30 billion chairs.
And there are, what, 7 billion people?
Yeah.
I will say this.
I really don't care about the answer to this at all.
Oh, it's fun, man.
It's fun.
It's one of those stupid fun ones.
Stupid fun.
That's right in our wheelhouse, man.
I think...
Oh, man, that's hard.
And think about airplanes and stuff.
They're just hella seats
that are constantly vacant buses what about like pledges who they make be chairs that's a valid
question they temporarily become chairs yeah you have to count those yeah okay didn't you say your
your face was a chair dylan at one point right what are you doing dog yeah didn't you were calling
yourself two for the other day because you're two for the price of one.
You got a seat and you're a human.
No.
This is all made up, everybody who's listening.
It never happened.
Your rap name would be Lil' Ikea.
I don't think so.
No, it didn't play.
Because you're a piece of furniture, is what I'm saying.
You don't even know the difference between a chair and a table.
No, I don't. I don't know why piece of furniture, is what I'm saying. You don't even know the difference between a chair and a table. No, I don't.
I don't know why.
I was trying to do two things at once.
How did you fuck that up?
I don't know.
There are eight chairs in this room.
Did you count the one behind you?
Yes.
There are eight chairs in this room.
Okay.
There are four of us.
When we leave, there will be zero of us in here, but still eight chairs.
You know one chair equals one prayer i don't think so that's a lot of prayers in the
world which we need right now guys i i do think that i do think that there are more chairs now
yeah that being said i still don't care you do though i don't really do I don't really. You do. I don't really. I can see it on your face. No, it's just like, it just doesn't matter.
I love hypotheticals.
All the buses and trains.
I love hypotheticals.
This one just doesn't do it for me.
Do you count the bench chair modification that lines like a subway?
Oh, yeah.
Because a chair?
I think the better, like if you say, is there how many more seats than people there are in the world?
Seats opens it up.
Yeah.
Chairs, individual chairs is a different story,
but I still think it's...
Because everyone, as you noted correctly,
everyone's face could eventually be a seat.
For what?
Okay.
Come on.
I didn't say you.
I don't understand this joke,
but Dylan was making it earlier,
so I'm just going with it.
That is also very untrue.
You're catching strays
yeah that's well that's what happened not even strays you're just getting shot speaking of seats
at pine house the other day with my mom people were were saving imaginary seats just so people
wouldn't sit next to us or sit next to them see there's some people you can't do that no they
don't understand that it's community seating talk Talk about catching a stray. If you go to Pine House, especially during a busy time,
you're going to be sitting probably closer than you want to a stranger,
next to a stranger.
Sure.
Or with a pole between your legs.
That was me last time we all went.
That's my favorite.
It's like, what's going on here?
It's a flaw in the design.
I don't know if they really had much choice.
It's a load-bearing pole, okay?
The structural integrity. I thought we weren't doing those jokes structural integrity of the restaurant the structure chill with the load-bearing pole jokes
there's there's too much unintentional like perversion i do think if we have one
if we have one place in austin that would that could maybe make us a special beer,
I think it could be Pine House.
Really?
I think we could convince them.
What would your special beer be?
Dude, they once gave me a free meal there because I forgot my wallet,
and he was like, you're good, dude.
You're here all the time.
No shit.
What's your special beer, Will?
Give me the break.
The cider that we talked about?
The Cayman cider?
The one named after reptilian creatures?
Crocodilian creatures? Yeah. No, I don don't think the came insider is going to take off but
it hard to say zon is my favorite someone's made that it hard to say zon is definitely one of our
best it's just like a k it's just a cayman throwing the deuce at his little cayman that being said shouts to age or kj again uh circling bach has legs i like it hard to saison yeah it hard to saison is also good
is this is saison i don't i've had like two maybe in my life it's a french uh beer yeah
french style we can't pull that on farm workers used to drink it on their breaks
circling bach would be tight i don't really want my farm workers drinking on their breaks i do
i do if i'm in france i just assume everyone's got a steady buzz.
Our biz dev guy, like, okay, yeah, that's fine.
He does that.
Thank you.
But my farm workers, like, they're out there in the combine and shit.
Dude, they're crime boys.
Let them have a beer.
Like, dude, he fucking was ghost riding the combine.
I mean, they're just out there hammering their nails, stacking them bales.
That's how they make corn mazes.
Hey, we're 11 minutes into this podcast I think it's probably time to uh to tell people that we have some holiday sweaters that are live on washmedia.com shop if you haven't
seen these then you apparently just don't follow us because we've been putting them out there
they're hot they're sexy hey can I break some news real quick, Will? Sure.
Yesterday.
Usually we wait to the end of the episode to do that, but yeah.
You're getting too liberal with your entrances here.
Yeah, sorry.
Well, this is good news.
Yesterday was our biggest merch day of all time.

Last two episodes went harder than I can really describe right now.
That was the best one we've done.
That was fun.
I think Thanksgiving was up there.
It was. But yesterday, maybe it. That was fun. I was, I'm still, I think Thanksgiving was up there. It was.
But yesterday was just, maybe it was just because it was dumb comedy, but there was
just a lot of us off mic laughing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If you like that, then you'll love it.
If you like people who like banging in fridges, beer fridges specifically.
Really cargo containers.
Ted coolers.
Yeah.
I can't get over.
I was thinking this in the bathroom earlier when I was uh taking a tank uh that dude who just vomited i'm not going to give the entire story away but like
you know most people like they have one embarrassing vomit and then they go home
that's it i mean it was like seven for this one dude i know he vomited in the worst places he
could have i know someone who when they puke they can't stop puking when they're drinking
and i cannot be more thankful that i'm not that person like what do you what do you mean can't stop like it's not like you puke like if i
puke when i'm drinking which i haven't done in a really long time i will only puke like a couple
times just to get it out and then i'm good for the rest of the night but i know some like i know
someone that he just when he starts yeah the floodgates are open and he needs to dedicate the next two hours
to being in a bathroom
because it might just flare up.
That's like Dylan when he's drinking with cigarettes.
He just chain blasts.
Can't stop blasting heaters.
That's not accurate at all.
To be honest, I wish that was accurate.
You wish I was a chain smoker?
Just when you're drinking.
I do.
Don't make a chain smoker joke.
Please don't.
Yeah.
To be honest, they get hella streams on spotify so yeah it would be really nice i was addicted to smoking is what
you're trying to say no just when you're drinking oh yeah yeah i kind of missed those days it was
fun man it was a good ride did you actually chain smoke where you would light your night cigarette
no no i had no he would light his cigarettes with the tail and the tail. I would drink. I would have like two, maybe three cigarettes.
That was it.
Spread out.
We used to actually chain smoke on my buddy's boat where we would light the next cigarette with.
You shouldn't do that.
That's trash.
I mean, used to.
We did it one day in one summer when we were like 18.
We thought we were the coolest fucking people in the lake.
You felt great.
You were just flicking your butts into the lake in the togs?
Yep.
Did y'all see the Jack Nicholson photos from his vacation?
What a king.
He's got his head just popped out of the lake with a sig blast.
It's a great photo.
It's a great photo.
It is really good.
Is it better than the McConaughey lake photo with Woody Harrelson?
It's a tough one.
Because that's a one-two punch yes it's better nicholson
better than mcconaughey i agree i haven't seen the nicholson ones he's like stuffing his face
with a hoagie or some shit i have a major issue with woody harrelson right now and it's that he's
not a good joe biden on snl and i'm worried that we're going to have him being joe biden for the
why are you still watching snl you need this up. You need to watch this last...
The Will Ferrell episode was absolutely hilarious.
And they had special guests from everywhere.
If you haven't watched it, you would...
It didn't go viral.
Yes, it did.
I didn't see the virality.
Well, you missed it.
Show me the virality.
It's because you were extremely offline Dave over Thanksgiving.
What was it?
Saturday night?
I don't know when it actually was.
It might have been the week before.
But I'm not kidding.
Like, they had some big hitters on this episode.
Oh, I know what was happening. I was bathing Randy when it big hitters on this episode i know i was bathing
randy it when it was on like no joke i was bathing randy at midnight because he he went and played
with the news dog barb and just got wild he got dirty as hell yeah i took rosie on a long walk
on the beach and she got into some mud and some sand and everything like that so i had to i had
to rinse her off in my parents uh basement bathroom, which wasn't ideal.
You've been having some randy dirty issues lately.
Dog bathing is the worst.
It's terrible for your lower back.
You're in like an awkward position crouched over.
You're going to get wet.
You're going to have to take a shower.
My forehead always gets the beads of sweat on it.
Yeah.
It's not fun.
Brett, this is something you need to think about.
I know you're considering becoming a dog owner.
I am.
The apartment complex I'm at has one of those elevated dog washer stations.
We have one of those, too.
So your dog can be pretty much eye level, which I like.
So I'm going to take that into consideration.
Plus, you have turf, Will.
Do you have turf?
Do you have a dog park at your place scott's turf builder
uh no i have uh i do yeah i do have a dog park it's not turf turf the turf thing really saves
your ass well oh very much i'm very thankful for the turf i didn't know we have we have a
bocce ball court at my place in the other courtyard yeah i was actually in a league
how'd you do uh first place two years in a row bocce ball stinks it's it's more fun in theory
when you get out there you're like man this kind of are you serious yeah my team was the hibachi boys
okay i stood nice but we were the that the way you're talking about bocce right now is
how someone who sucks at bocce would talk about i'm incredible at bocce it's just not that fun
yes it is all right you're not playing with the right crew because it's a crew game.
That could be fair.
Yeah.
I'm out there just chatting.
So we had a bocce set at the fraternity house.
Dylan, you probably remember this.
Oh, I used to play.
Well, by the time I got there, which was like 10 years after Dylan.
One semester.
We still had the bocce set,
but it was like one of those things where people are like,
yeah, we're going to come by the house.
We're going to play bocce.
You'd get like a quarter of a game in,
and then people got distracted.
Next thing you know, people were just drinking on the porch.
Oh, you know why?
No one ever finished.
Because it got really dangerous.
People would take those big-ass bocce balls
and start throwing them over the roof.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Like bombing each other?
Well, we hope no one's on the other side.
Oh.
We had like a back deck,
and these things would just become crashing down over the house.
Dude, you're going to kill somebody.
You can't do that.
So it got dangerous.
We started throwing them against the house and shit.
I don't know how that house is still standing, by the way.
It may not be.
Yeah. Anyway, by the way. It may not be. Yeah.
Anyway, it got dangerous.
Yeah, I mean,
throwing bocce balls over a house
onto a back deck,
can't imagine that's like...
We were just chain-smoking heaters
in the front yard
and had a natty in our hand, you know,
and just humming those things.
Natty Ice?
Oh, no.
Fuck that.
We were a natty fraternity.
Drink a lot of it.
What were you, dude?
We were, man.
Sorry, tis the season.
To what?
Hey, Dylan, can you intro us to this next segment?
What's the next segment?
Oh, wait, which one?
Which one?
Okay, fine.
I'll just do it.
New sponsor alert. New sponsor alert new sponsor alert fuck this up sorry i thought you were talking about the asmr segment whatever i was thinking
the same thing thank you thank you sorry wow just chill out i get it's not every day i get
to can i ask you guys an honest question please how are you supposed to know what to do with your
money do you know i ask myself that. I don't discuss my finances publicly.
That's fair. Very few of us are exposed to meaningful advice on how to manage our finances.
Even fewer have the means to get professional financial guidance. I know I do. Betterment is
a platform that was built to do something radical, to give accessible financial advice
that puts you first. If you're like most Americans, your money is probably sitting in a savings account,
likely earning next to nothing.
Oh, guilty.
Trust me.
Very guilty.
I've looked into this.
Maybe you have an investment account that you're not really sure what to do with.
Betterment costs less than other financial services,
and it's a smarter, cheaper, and more efficient way to invest.
Betterment can help you make sense of what to do with your money.
Investing involves risk, but you don't have to know the ins and outs of the stock market
to start saving more and start investing in your future.
Betterment's technology will put your money to work, choosing the stocks and strategies
that are right for you because we know you have other things to do.
Betterment's platform can even provide guidance on what financial goals make sense for you.
Do you guys know where you can find this?
Where you can use these services?
Where?
Give your money a new home with Betterment.

That's B-E-T-T-E-R-M-E-N-T

Yeah, that'd be great.
He's there on the weekend anyway.
Fucking party animal being a chair, right?
I don't think that's accurate.
Anyway.
Hey, I went and got my tea checked yesterday.
That's what I heard, man.
How'd it go?
It didn't go well.
It didn't go well.
You didn't actually get a check though so okay so just to be clear our our my current health insurance which is the most trash plan of all time
because it's what i got i don't know when we started the company it was like all right let's
get the cheapest insurance i can possibly get it doesn't cover the cost of this and i was like
that's fine dylan told me to pay out of pocket. I went to the same place you went.
My appointment was at 2.15 in the afternoon.
I walk in.
I fill out a stack of paperwork that is just enormous.
I couldn't believe it.
And I'm left-handed.
So like writing on a clipboard is nearly impossible for your boy.
What's different about it?
Oh, there's nowhere to rest your hands.
There's nowhere to rest your hand.
Why don't you just learn to write with your right yeah dumbass i'm probably better at writing with
my right than most people are writing with their left i just can't do it i can i'm pretty oppo um
but so i pay the i pay the 150 and i'm like oh whatever it's worth it this is content
it's gonna go great i walk in and the nurse was like so why are you why are you here what are
your concerns and i was like i don't really have any concerns i just kind of i have my co-workers and they got theirs
checked and i just think i should get mine checked too and she was just very confused and so i was
like uh i was like okay maybe so you got to go in and you got to go heavy on that man i'm just tired
lethargic don't have the energy i used to uh not seeing the gains in the gym you got it's
like when you go get like an adderall prescription from like your psychiatrist or whatever yeah you're
just like oh i just can't focus focus dude i'm like i'm slipping in school blah blah blah they're
like dude you're 35 sex drive thing a little bit play that angle all right well so that's part of
it she quizzed me on it and at the end of it i was like honestly i just want to get a check just to
know it's it's so you just you you fold it is what happened like you like a chair no no she was
fine with it though she was fine with it she wasn't like she wasn't like confused or like
you folded like a dylan
what's going on in this podcast so you did the you were you were well so the guy comes in the guy so the
doctor comes in and he's like he starts asking me questions he's like how's your energy i'm like
pretty good he's like how are you sleeping well he's like yeah very restful and then he was like
and then so then i was like okay maybe i need to throw something in there he's like how's your
libido and i was like you know what i could use a little bit more let's get it going so this guy's got you pegged
in his head he's thinking like oh this guy just wants to fuck like that's all this dude well so
he kind of started laughing when i told him like about how you guys got yours checked and he was
like okay that's fine and he was like we started going through everything else and then he was like
okay i'm gonna i'm gonna do uh whatever like a a routine check on you and i was like oh okay so he's like lift up your
shirt and he starts like pressing on like my stomach and stuff and then he's like drop your
pants and i was like i didn't know i had to do this and then like the only thing i cared about
was like please do not put your finger in my butt right now well he no he would prepare you for that
i was just having a bad butt day you know i just didn't need that no day is a good butt day yeah
and uh when it was all said and done he was like yeah so i don't think you need anything and i was like okay i was like but i'd really like to
get it checked just to know he's like okay i'll get you a lab order for it he's like but you can't
do it right now because it's it's the afternoon and you have to do it in the morning when your
your testosterone resets after waking up between 8 and 10 in the morning i was never told that let
me just be clear well then i was like i was like so why did you have me schedule an appointment at 2 15 in the afternoon if you can't check it like i was
very clear about what i needed done when i called and made this appointment so now i just have this
order slip that they don't even want me to use what but still use it do you still want me to
turn down your business i don't understand this like no i was like dude just prick my finger and
tell me i've you know what it is i think okay so with the emergence of like men's clinics and tea clinics that are basically one-stop shops for like washed dudes in their 40s wearing
like affliction who want to look jacked in like addison texas i know it's very specific but it's
right and frank thomas um the big hurt uh they have they're like trying to like not get caught
up in it there's a lot they get a lot of people off the street who want to come in and they're
looking for like a shortcut for gains should i've told them straight up like hey i'm not trying to not get caught up in it. They get a lot of people off the street who want to come in, and they're looking for a shortcut for gains.
Should I have told them straight up, like,
hey, I'm not trying to get any meds.
I'm just trying to get a score.
You should have just gone in and said,
look, man, energy levels are low, not sleeping great.
I just feel like I'm dragging, and I don't know why.
I'm eating well, blah, blah, blah.
Dude, I'm honest Abe, man.
I cannot tell a lie
you just had to check one of the boxes
and you checked zero of the boxes
he was just like in his head he's like
just fucking say it just say it and you didn't
say it yeah
you didn't mention the search drive stuff at all
no that's the one thing that I was like
I was like okay I could bend on this
a little bit and so I was like yeah I was like
eh
but he could tell in my eyes that like you're full of shit
i didn't think it was a crime to like go in and just like no it's not but you got the order form
so use it yeah true it's not like all right i'll use it it's 35 to get it done oh hell yeah i'll
do it dude expense it catch me at it catch me at a place okay dave said it dave said i don't know
about dave said it so i can do it well i wasn't supposed to expense the 150 yesterday either
no i don't think i expensed my knee surgery i'll tell you all about that i got my knee cleaned out
you probably should have told us about that the meniscus gun yeah how much was it uh fifteen
thousand dollars you just charge it because i had stayed overnight in the hospital okay just for
like shits and gigs that morphine drip just chilling
damn just fucking doing shit going live i must have missed all this yeah it was a while back
like how how far back i months okay many what check did he perform on you when he pulled your
pants down like how do you check for t well he's just a physical he knew that i had a hernia
surgery so he he felt that he's like oh i
he's like yep there and then he just he just kind of felt around my balls he does which is i don't
hate looks the other way and he's i don't hate yeah he made me cough and everything but i don't
hate that because like you gotta you gotta check your no that's smart you gotta check your balls
every once in a while and i don't know what's remember tom green so yeah it was yeah exactly
it was nice to know that i'm in the clear on that front as well.
What happened to Tom Green?
He got testicular cancer
and he made content out of it.
That guy was a content machine back in the day.
Remember My Bum is on the Wall?
Dude, that was the number one song on TRL for like two weeks.
I'm going to go back and revisit it and see if it holds up.
You've got to think it holds up.
He really crushed it in a Total Frat movie, too.
Oh, yeah.
What was his role in that?
Was he like the headmaster or something?
I think he was a dean.
I never saw that movie.
Was it good?
No, Dylan was that.
Let's move on.
Total Frat movie.
People forget.
Hey, no judgment.
The funniest thing Tom Green ever did was paint his dad's car.
Do we have any guesses what the audience score on Rotten Tomatoes for Total Frat Movie was?
I'll say 25%.
I didn't know it was actually made.
Yeah.
I'm glad that you didn't know.
3%. It's surprisingly high what 52 whoa that's crazy that being said the critics consensus is not there yet because they
don't have enough reviews to to do it so that's that's difficult go leave a review five stars
yeah if you're a professional critic please do a write-up of this on your esteemed site
no the funniest thing tom green ever did was paint his dad's uh car into the slut mobile
as he dubbed it and that was all time it was like episode one or two and his dad had to go to work
and then instead of taking it he walked to the bus stop and tom went to
tom got in the slut mobile and went to pick his dad up at the bus stop.
Hey, my favorite thing in the credits for the movie is one of the main characters,
the actor, his name is Steven Yaffe.
His credit is him as John Douche-Nausel MacGyver.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
Dylan, weren't you supposed to be in that movie?
No.
You were supposed to be Douche-Nausel, weren't you?
Didn't they toy with you being in that?
Actually, every actor in that movie is Canadian.
A little fun fact.
Are there tax breaks for doing Canadian movies or something?
And it was filmed in Canada.
Oh, yeah.
So you're going full-time.
Dude, that's NF.
It's very NF, yeah.
Canadians are kind of frat, though. They just do outdoor stuff and drink beer. I did not write it, yeah. So you're going full touch. Dude, that's NF. It's very NF, yeah. Huh.
Canadians are kind of frat, though.
They just do outdoor stuff and drink beer.
I did not ride it, no.
No.
I had nothing to do with anything.
Is Canada one big frat?
I was totally hands off of the movie.
Really?
Oh, yeah.
I mean, wasn't that, like, honest question, wasn't that Pete Dorn?
Like, that era?
Not really.
It was tail end Dorn.
It's kind of fucked up they didn't
have you do a cameo they like actually hired like writers and shit really yeah that one's
being i say they it was the look they just like bought the naming rights from us basically
i say us grand x being very humble oh no you know how like you know
whatever he's about to say is 100 the second dave said you were being humble he said it the first time you disregarded it dave looked over at me with this look in his eyes like he's about to say is 100% bullshit. The second Dave said you were being humble,
he said it the first time and you disregarded it.
Dave looked over at me with this look in his eyes like,
I'm about to railroad Dylan.
You know, like in Hollywood, when they do a military movie,
they bring in people who are like SEALs or something.
You need the insider knowledge.
And they're just there like, no, actually, this is how we kick in a door.
They brought Dylan in as the frat consultant. And Dylan was just there, arms crossed, like, no, actually, this is how we kick in a door. They brought Dylan in as the frat consultant.
And Dylan was just there, arms crossed, like, no, no, no.
That wasn't fratty enough.
See, what I would have done, what I think is more realistic,
is if you took the beer, you pounded it over your head,
ripped it in half, and then poured it in your face.
But did it at the same time just to show them.
Yeah, and then hit a line right after.
Of course, none of this actually happened.
And you were paid a handsome sum.
No, I was paid zero dollars. I had no relation to the movie whatsoever.
Did you get royalties on the success of the movie?
Me?
Yeah.
No.
Of course not.
Well, you were the consultant.
Well, no, I wasn't.
That's the thing.
People are forgetting here.
Dorne's frat camp needs to happen.
I don't care.
It's not.
I don't care how far the movie went.
Let us make that movie.
Do it with someone else, not with me.
You wouldn't John Root in somebody?
Like X's and O's? No.
If you asked me 10 years ago, maybe.
What if Tostitos sponsored it?
If I could go back in time,
I would make this video with you and J-Bone
when he was an intern, and it would have been hilarious.
It would have been funny at the time, yes. But we'll do it now with J-Bone when he was an intern, and it would have been hilarious. It would have been funny at the time, yes.
But we'll do it now with J-Bone, too.
That's fine as well.
J-Bone's like, how old is he now?
I don't know.
He's got to be 30.
J-Bone is hosting make-your-own-pasta parties
at his apartment,
so he's that amount old.
Is he really?
Yeah, I don't think he's going to.
I didn't catch an invite to it.
Thank you, J-Bone.
That's such a J-Bone thing.
That's why he missed our meetup, because he was holding a pasta party.
Really?
Come on.
Sounds kind of lit, honestly.
Oh, it sounds like a good time.
I'm getting old enough to the point where I'm like, you know what?
That sounds great.
That sounds very good.
I would do that.
Make your own pasta party.
How do you make pasta?
Just flour and water, man.
Flour and water.
For real? Yeah. And you roll make pasta? Just flour and water, man. Flour and water.
For real?
Yeah.
And you roll it out.
It's not worth it. Just buy this stuff at Central Market.
Yeah, I love mine.
Yours probably sucks.
I don't think it does.
I had tortellinis last night.
You know why?
Brett, the water down here is different.
Oh, yeah?
You need that New York water.
Yeah, that's how they make their good bagels, man.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's the water.
What's your stance on the bagel?
Everything bagel?
No, no, no.
Like New York versus everywhere else?
We've gotten in many fights about bagels versus breakfast taco,
which is hard to compare, but what's a better breakfast item?
A better breakfast sandwich building like
a better meal is going to be the bagel right like a bacon egg and cheese on everything bagel toasted
is about the best thing you can do for breakfast guy from new york's gonna say that
just granted from the toe i do enjoy stop calling it the totes
not the toes that's what people call you're from thees. That's what people call it. You're from the totes. That's what people call it, dude.
Oh, my God.
Totes, totes, totes.
Go on.
Sorry.
Breakfast tacos have made an impact on my life.
They're good.
I like them.
They'll put a little impact on that waistline, too, if you're not careful, man.
What kills me about the breakfast taco bagel conversation is that I now wake up craving
breakfast tacos if I'm hungover or something,
as opposed to former me,
who's a bagel guy.
So I'm transforming.
But I think that's...
I'm a product of the environment.
Bagels down here, they don't hit the same.
Dude, now I'm craving a bagel.
There's a bagel place around the corner
from our new office.
It's not like...
Brugger's?
Brugger's is good.
Hold on. Brugger's bagel. It is good? good i've never had it but it looks like it would be good they have they have good sandwiches there yeah
if you want to do just a chain bagel situation brugers is is up there right by our better than
einstein's see here's the problem so when we originally did this discussion i'm not gonna
speak for dylan but uh this is one time I won't speak for Dylan.
No, my experience with bagels was just like staying at like a Holiday Inn and going down to the breakfast buffet.
And there's just like a bagel sitting out for like seven hours.
Yeah.
And it's trash.
Yeah.
And you like, yeah, I'm like doing the Philly cream cheese or whatever.
And I'm just eating it and I'm just dying inside and looking like, I guess I'll eat some cereal too. So that's my
experience with bagels. It's like, it tastes
like you're eating like a, like a tarp
almost. It's gross. Oh dude, it's like
eating a Cole Haan driving loafer.
Yes, that's, yeah. I had to
land the plane there for a second. But less tasteful.
Do you want a bagel take that no one saw coming from
your boy?
Yes. I don't like lox
on my bagels. No, I'm with you. They always overdo it. I don't need lox on my bagels no i'm with you they always overdo it i don't
need that much smoked salmon in one sitting yeah you're not you're not you're not wrong
they're they're it's good i they load up the lox though it's so much chive cream cheese i just
you got capers going to there's just a lot in play i like it what how do you do your eggs on a bagel or or just in general i've never actually like made my own is that what you're saying or like
how do i order it how would you order it i just go over medium across the board with my eggs
so okay is that less yolky less runny it's it's um yeah because i'm an over easy boy
yeah that's too running is that dangerous too running i'm over easy too dave okay or fried Less runny? It's, yeah. Because I'm an over-easy boy.
Yeah, that's too runny for me. Is that dangerous?
Too runny for me.
I'm over-easy too, Dave.
Okay.
Or fried.
Cool.
I've never ordered a bagel that required me to say how I want my eggs.
Really?
Dude, I've done bagels wrong.
I'm telling you.
Man, I don't even know.
You need to spend more time up in western new york dave i know when we do
saratoga at some point we'll have to do togs does paradox do bagels no they do uh nachos though
sick do they make their saison uh because they're about it hard to say they are about to
i don't think they do small batch dude come on make it
happen we could i mean i have a uh a blueberry wheat that's getting made next year in my name
is it called the brett what's it called well you can't call it a brett because a brett is
a style of uh beer so i just get to name it when it's done call it the brent what are you
gonna call it togs what kind what kind of style of beer is a brett uh it's name it when it's done. We'll call it the Brent. What are you going to call it? Togues? What kind of style of beer is a Brett?
It's a German one.
It's like an extremely white weed ale with like just making calls in the office.
I don't think beer can do that.
If I ever prop my feet up.
Tinker Red Bull?
Oh.
Don't say that.
Living the dream.
I don't say that.
That's you on the call.
I've listened.
Have I ever said living the dream on a call? I don't know. You tell me, dream. I don't say that. That's you on the call. I've listened. Have I ever said living the dream on a call?
I don't know.
You tell me, man.
I don't think.
Maybe with Pitch Greg.
When I called Dave, your old boss, and asked for a performance review.
Yeah.
Just as a reference.
He was telling me all that.
Okay.
He's probably a good one to get it from.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was on the phone with him for like two hours.
Yeah.
That's wild.
I don't know where we were. Oh, Brett Beer.'t know what it is it's a german beer i think it's
spelled the same as your name yes did your dad name you that for a reason no it was george brett
really yeah nolan ryan for my middle name really really yeah george brett nolan ryan
and then merriman i just kind of got stuck with. Oh, man, that sucks.
What was your dad's ball team growing up?
Orioles.
I'm going to start calling you Cal.
He was the Orioles because their AAA team was in Rochester, New York.
And those guys didn't play for the Orioles.
No, they didn't.
But his is...
All right, Dylan.
I wish he would have named you Miguel.
For who?
Miguel Tejada no I was
he was
he was after
my birth
time
oh that's right
how's it not go with Cal
yeah
I think Cal was on the list
I just don't think
did your dad have any takes
on
on
Cal Ripken's
streak
and how it was
probably not
can I say something about
Cal Ripken that might really hurt some feelings around here?
You probably won't.
I feel like as far as important sports moments and trends and records,
his has the least swag.
Why?
Just showing up.
Yeah.
Yeah, cutting class is tight.
He did it 2,000 times, though.
I know.
Yeah, except for one
when they had the power go out in the stadium or whatever to save his streak like he never like
held out for a contract or anything like that which is just like dude what give me swag one time
it's like ryan zimmerman's doing right now he's just like he's like i'm either gonna golf or play
for the nationals i don't care what you pay me if it's like 1.3 million dollars just sign me up for either way yeah mr national
weren't you a big lance berkman guy hated one of the worst rangers acquisitions of all hated
lands by the way i thought he was in houston for he was he did like a quarter of a season
with the rangers got it terrible terrible team just bad got to think, when Houston was tried now, like Biggio, Bagwell, Berkman, and Clemens, right?
And he petted.
They never won anything, right?
They didn't have the center field cameras installed then.
They weren't yet cheating.
That's what they've said.
Oh, okay.
Got it.
Have you guys heard the...
I mean, do you guys know the rumor about Cal Rifkin and Kevin Costner?
No.
What?
They love each other.
Wait a minute.
Snopes says it's incorrect.
Okay.
Snopes says, no, this did not happen.
Snopes gets down to the bottom of everything.
Do you want me to read this, though?
Yeah.
Because there was a game where there was a power outage that delayed the game, and it
was apparently because of something Cal Ripken did.
So it says, Cal Ripken Jr. was allowing Kevin Costner, the actor, to stay at his house following the rap of The Postman. One day, Ripken left for Camden Yards
to play in a game. Somewhere between his home and the stadium, Cal realized that he had left
something back at his house and he turned back to retrieve it. Upon arriving at his home, he found
Kevin Costner in bed with his wife, Kelly. Cal then proceeded to beat the crap out of Costner
to the point that Costner was unable to make any publicity opportunities for a time. Cal then
called the Orioles and told them he wouldn't be coming into play that day. Upon hearing this, Yeah, he probably knows.
Oh, no doy. so there went the streak. Reportedly, the owner told him not to worry because he would take care of it. That night, the game was canceled
due to electrical failure
with some lights on the field.
The caller said that there was no problem
with the lights and everything else,
including the hotels and restaurants
that are all part of Camden Yards
and they all worked perfectly.
The next day, the lights were fixed,
Cal was able to play,
and the streak stayed intact.
Damn.
But Snow said no.
Gotta tell you,
I did not think that's where that rumor was
going i thought it was going to go a different direction there's a lot of words justifying what
happened here and it almost puts out they're over they're over compensating
i think cal did it i think cal beat the fuck out of costner kevin costner is not a big dude
hard to say no i've never met him i've only been
in the field of dreams so i can't speak to that i'm taking cal on that scrap every time yeah dude
oh like grizzled ball player yeah oh yeah you're taking a professional athlete over an actor crazy
well he's a professional baseball player yeah slow down on the athlete deal okay he's an athlete

Hey, did you guys hear the news?
Dorn was horny on the timeline.
Okay.
I wasn't horny on the timeline.
On the TL?
I was just pointing out, I was making an observation about the young lady that sent me in a video.
That's all I was doing.
Okay, so when I put out this episode, I will call this, was Dorn horny on the timeline?
I won't make the proclamation that you were.
I appreciate that.
We'll let the people decide.
Thank you.
Do you want to explain what happened?
Yeah, so as most of you are probably aware, there's a little bit that i have going on on
social media where people will send me pictures of their christmas trees and ask for a rating
been doing it for a few years now um but uh occasionally i will get a video and i got one
was it last two nights ago two nights ago i got a video from monday night because i spent yesterday
trying to figure out why you deleted your tweet yeah Yeah, two nights ago, a young lady sent me a video and she provided
a little commentary. It's a video of her tree. She provided some commentary and was basically
just saying, isn't this like a beautiful tree, basically. And she just had a, just a very,
something like she could be an ASMR person. Just say it. It was sultry.
It was sultry.
It was seductive and it was, you know, we're about to play it.
Dude, you're all flustered right now.
No, I'm not.
You're all flustered.
I don't know how to describe it without sounding like a perv.
Listen to you.
And I wasn't horny.
Why don't we just play it for the folks at home and we'll let them decide whether or
not it was sultry or not.
Listen to the voice, people.
Okay.
You guys ready?
I'm mashing that play button.
So this is our Christmas tree.
All antique and or handmade.
Beautiful homemade Dallas Cowboys ornament.
Me in the fifth grade.
Among all these other little gems.
It's just the most beautiful Christmas tree,
in my opinion.
Probably in yours too.
Okay.
Okay, tell me I'm wrong.
Tell me I'm wrong about that.
You can't.
You can't.
A billion subscribers is a lot.
Okay, that was a joke.
A little exaggeration there.
That happens on the T.E.L.
Like Trace Colmas. Okay, that was a joke. A little exaggeration there. That happens on the TL. Like Trace Comas.
Yeah, a Billy.
But am I wrong?
It was sultry, Dylan.
Quite.
Why'd you delete the tweet?
Because people were saying I was horny on the TL, which is untrue.
I was just making a very obvious observation.
That voice, man. just making a very obvious observation that voice man y'all y'all want to say stuff but you can't
you don't want to get in trouble i don't know what you're talking about no i've told you it's
it's it's sultry it's just very much so i wouldn't i wouldn't have deleted the tweet that that shows
that shows wrongdoing no i just i was tired of people just saying i was horny on the on the
timeline i wasn't but people were saying I was horny on the timeline.
I wasn't.
But people are going to say it either way.
There's screenshots of this.
Okay, but it quieted.
It was effective.
The delete worked.
I'm going to send you one of the wreaths that I bought last night,
and I'm going to do a sultry voice for you and have you rate my wreath.
Okay.
She was borderline crystal from Bachelor.
Oh, look at this Christmas tree.
Yeah.
Do you like it?
I think you'll like it.
No.
Crystal is annoying.
Christmas tree is beautiful.
Dylan, what do you think?
What's your rating, darn?
No, crystal is annoying.
This young lady, I'm not annoyed by her.
I'm just pointing out that she had a very sexualized tone to her.
Dorn, please rate my Christmas tree. christmas tree oh stop yeah that's i don't yeah man we're an asmr podcast now why not
wait till you see my tree
bitch posted all right
anyway can we stop doing it yeah yeah yeah have you had any good ones come through
uh yeah i guess the highest rating you've given this year a 9.2 i think damn but yeah i'm
i'm not really rating very many of them anymore because i just get too many i'm a little over it
to be honest tbh but if i see a bomb ass tree come through i'm gonna hit him with a score or a really bad
one just so i can rip on it will you rate mine live on saturday live yeah sure man all right
yeah you have a full tree yeah real or fake uh fake you ornaments on it i do be funny if he had
no ornaments some old bear you not put lights on it like klein
oh my god that was disgusting why did he send that with no lights on it i don't know why that's like
sending it's like sending a nude when you're like not properly groomed it's like why would you do
that like you have to send you're supposed to send your best.
Don't send a flaccid.
Or sending a new one with the lighting totally off.
Here's my tree with no Christmas lights.
It just made no sense.
Do I need to put lights on my wreath?
If you're trying to go off.
Where is this for?
It's just in my household.
No. I don't really know
what to do with it we have we have two we have one on the front door one on the back the one
on the back faces inward i don't decorate for i mean living in an apartment i would do this if i
had a house i would decorate the outside of the house but living in an apartment i'm not decorating
for the people walking by my apartment so i refuse to put anything on the outside of my apartment
i don't want a mat out there and i don't want to read that you don't need that so but i don't know what to do with it it's
hanging above our tv because there's a big blank space there and i was like you know what this this
a wreath would do well here i'm looking at it and i'm like man i definitely need some lights on this
bitch what is the origin of the wreath why is that like uh i got it from central market no no i don't mean like
like not ethiopian like single drip or whatever wreath i bet there's a really cool story about it
yeah i'm sure you could write a children's book on this should we put on a children's book
yeah we should digital copy only no you know that the world's wreaths are being threatened, right? Why?
Global warming.
Climate change. The Great Barrier Wreath, it's apparently the algae and shit in it is going away because
the water's rising or something.
I thought it was suburban white mobs.
Oh, maybe that.
Yeah.
Alarming rate.
Yeah, it's a problem.
Do you want the history of the wreath?
Sure. alarming rate yeah it's a problem do you want the history of the wreath sure wreaths were designed
were a design used in ancient times in southern europe the most well-known pieces of etruscan
no clue civilization jewelry made of gold or other precious metals apparently that's where
it dates back to greek i would have said like 1500. I wouldn't have gone ancient Greece.
Do you get any Garland though?
Will in your apartment?
I have a,
yes,
yes.
So we have it.
We have some,
it was lining.
It was right under our TV,
but it was blocking the signal from the remote.
Yep.
Come on.
And so we had to move it.
Everyone's had that problem.
I had that problem last year.
It's shocking.
We just dealt with it last year. And this year I was like, nah, we had to move it. Everyone's had that problem. I had that problem last year. It's shocking. We just dealt with it last year.
And this year I was like,
no, we can't do it.
So we had another area that I decided to use this year.
I did the exact same thing.
It's really nice to watch
a Christmas movie
with the garland right underneath it.
Oh, it's the best.
We've had Home Alone
on like twice this week.
Like as I'm cooking dinner.
Like I'm like,
is that home alone again
and of course it is shots of disney plus is it on disney plus is it it's it's on something free
on apple tv so i've been i've been watching it like hell of tbs or tnt one of those is showing
it like every night i don't know if i've had this take before but i feel like i at one point on this
podcast said that home alone 2 was better than home Alone 1. I could not take a take back faster than I am right now.
Home Alone 1 is 100% the superior movie.
It's big of you to admit that now.
End of story.
Yeah.
The ambiance of New York City is what a lot of people fall in love with from 2.
They forget about like the Central Park scene with the creepy pigeon lady.
Yeah, that was unnecessary.
Central Park is way too cool
to have just a crazy pigeon lady
just doing shit in it.
There's never been
a crazy pigeon lady
in Central Park.
She's probably a drug dealer.
Probably.
I've never seen Home Alone.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Yeah.
None of them.
Absolutely none of them.
Which one are y'all interviewing who hired him our next hire that's what's something we're asking them yeah never seen it and i think i've
made it a point to like purposely stay out of the way of it micah kind of he didn't ruin it for me
but he definitely changed the way i watch it now because mike has started explaining to me how they taped it they taped it all from like a lower angle from kevin's perspective so a lot of
the scenes are low as if you're kevin but now that i know that i can't stop thinking about i'm like
low angle of course mike would be the one to point that out of course he would be two is a fine sequel
it just one was just so good and quotable come on your favorites
your favorites three isn't it i'd have like jonathan lip nicky in it or something when i
was a little kid i kind of looked like macaulay culkin and i used to do the aftershave thing where
you slap your face do it ah you that you crushed it brett you don't know it doesn't even know the
reference i don't get it it's over his head
what a dumbass you are Brett
yeah I think it's a trash movie
I've never seen it
full or easy on the Pepsi
means nothing to you
nothing
you're an idiot
wow
as a kid who wet the bed
that was an especially funny
quote for me
he grew up to be
Roman
that's crazy
now he's a billionaire
a lot of people forget about that
now he is like the
now he's jerking off on windows.
He has the worst lats on TV.
Yeah.
Just a terrible build.
Yeah.
It's unfortunate.
Do you think his tailor just roasts him behind his back?
Yes.
Dylan has just this look of disgust.
It's kind of insane.
But for me to be disgusted with you,
someone who these guys say doesn't
didn't have a childhood correct you it it should carry more weight that i'm so disappointed in you
it does good good true it's a true look of disgust that i've never seen it's weird move
that you've never seen it it's like i i told sally i was like i don't think i can
refute the claim that home alone is the best Christmas movie of all time.
Yeah.
I don't have any that I will put ahead of it.
I'll say that.
Me personally.
Hey, can I just point this out?
The fringe character that teaches him a lesson in Home Alone 1 is so much better than the bird lady.
Yeah.
Because the snow shovel guy.
Ends up being just a
total gentleman is a total gentleman who doesn't speak to his son for some reason need to know the
backstory if you don't tear up at the end when he's when that snow has fallen and kevin's just
looking out the window i'm getting chills right now yeah man man well Brett, you have homework to do.
Yeah, I'm going to watch Home Alone.
I think you should, man. Yes, you are.
I think you should.
I've purposely avoided it, so I think I'll finally break on it.
Dude, it's Joe Pesci, man.
Yeah.
Okay.
And Marv, dude.
Yeah.
Is Marv one of the guys that tries to kill Kevin in the house?
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
Is it going to hold up or are you going to be yeah is it gonna hold up or any messed up movie
it's classic dude i've watched it twice already i'm not gonna stop either no yeah in my life and
try not to think about the fact that like one phone call to the police it will thwart the entire
yeah situation okay but he just doesn't want to do that got it okay is there a reason is there
a reason for it like does landlines cut or something like that they didn't have cell phones no i think he just straight up like wanted to fuck these huh fuck
these guys over also the last thing i'll say about it that joe pesci is impersonating a police officer
in like one of the opening i guess the opening scene and no one really acknowledges him like
he's just there and someone's like hey what's up what are you doing here and he's just he's just standing there like oh you know we're
just at neighborhood telling people to lock up whatever it's just like what no one's doing like
that's not a thing that happens no especially not in a neighborhood like that yeah he was inside of
the house and like not it seemed like a lot of people were out of town in that neighborhood
the entire neighborhood was out of town no one no not that many people leave town
no not in that picturesque neighborhood it's was out of town. Not that many people leave town.
No.
Not in that picturesque neighborhood.
It's like a perfect
neighborhood for Christmas.
Why would you leave?
You wouldn't leave.
I will say that
I have seen like the
screenshots of the neighborhood
that Home Alone takes place in.
I'm sure you have, man.
Alright.
It's top notch
Christmas neighborhood.
Yeah.

I've got breaking news.
I've decided that after this podcast, I'm going to go to The Bean,
and I'm going to get a breakfast taco and some coffee.
Wow.
Maybe two breakfast tacos.
You know what's crazy?
I'm doing the same exact thing.
Oh, who would have thought
Brett was doing that?
Brett just lives
at the coffee shop
going to the street now.
Dylan, what are you going to do?
We'll see.
Hard to get.
You'll see.
Okay.
You'll see.
You never know.
Will's going to not go there again
because he hates it.
I don't hate it.
I don't hate it.
That's my impression of Will not going to the Bean. I don't know. It's just right there. It's just like right it. I don't hate it. That's my impression of Will not going to the Bean.
I don't know.
It's just right there.
I don't want to cross the road.
Something about it.
Dude, the most annoying part about crossing the road there is that...
You feel like fraud?
No, they only have one...
They don't have paths on both sides, so you can only do one.
You have to cross one the other way,
like going away from the restaurant
and then cross over and then double back.
Or you could be a badass and just cross right across.
Frogger it, dog.
How do you know Frogger?
You're making Frogger references
and you've never seen Home Alone.
Correct.
Frogger on either PS1 or computer.
So you never played the Home Alone video game
on like Super Nintendo or anything?
Oh yeah. That game sucked. I wask country on super nintendo donkey kong i know what
dk stands for dude i don't know 32 year old man i grew up with donkey i thought it was donna karen
i thought you're going metcalf i am i am donkey kong oh i'm not he's not dave what's this thing
on twitter i'm seeing that you're uh you're having a
christmas light situation yeah so this actually just happened uh i'm texting with the guy who
does christmas lights like the installation and all that and i got a quote send some photos of
the crib the quote was much higher than i expected how much take a guess what do you think so this
includes i own the lights. He buys them.
I keep them.
He puts them up and he removes them.
Also includes purchase of the lights.
Correct.
Okay.
I'm going to give just an honest estimate,
not accounting for the fact that you said it's higher than you thought.
I would say $250.
You're thinking like i was thinking the quote was 750 plus 100 to remove them so 850
total oh my paying someone 100 to come to my house and take him down wow leave him up all
year i'd rather leave him up all year i will be that guy who leaves them up i mean did you
did you request like a griswold setup with just everything?
No, I didn't even tell them what we wanted.
I just sent them a photo.
I mean, you've been to my house.
It is two stories.
It's not crazy.
It's not crazy big.
We're not doing...
I don't want the sidewalk lined.
I just maybe want the tree wrapped and then maybe like the arch that is over our front door.
And then over like the garage.
I don't know.
Something tasteful. maybe like the arch that is over our front door and then over like the garage i don't know something
tasteful yeah honestly i could i would love to do it myself but it would involve like getting a
giant ladder and i'm just not i'm not there yet so why don't you bring the squad over we'll put
lights on your house no y'all definitely don't want to do i'm out on that all right i'm in big
time i'll do a couple ipas put lights up fuck it let's have it i don't think we should mix light
light putting up in ipas all right fine we'll do a couple IPAs, put lights up. Fuck it. Let's have a Saturday. I don't think we should mix light putting up and IPAs.
All right, fine.
We'll do light beers.
I don't care.
Okay, that's funny.
We'll do hard to say Zons.
We're not putting up my lights.
I want a cider.
I want a crocodilian cider.
Do you hear what Dave said is going to be the logo on that thing?
Just a gator throwing up a deuce.
Okay.
With his little gator claw.
Yeah.
Somebody's going gonna make that.
Oh no, please don't.
Make sure it's a real
caiman. Gotta be a caiman.
Has to be a caiman.
The little guys. Yeah.
Little gators.
I feel bad that those caimans had to die for your boots.
Don't put it like that man oh they're just like
they're kind of like they're like the cute reptile i got the boots with the fur though too so yeah
you do yeah are you gonna wear your apple bottom jeans to the christmas party i just got them from
the dry you're not allowed in my apartment if you have apple bottom jeans on well you're gonna let
me in you're gonna turn him away I can literally not let you in.
You don't have the key fob, bitch.
Damn, dude.
Okay.
Yes, I don't know what I'm going to do about this.
This is a significant development here.
I may just have to go without him.
I was the... That's a lot of money.
Put him up, man.
Put him up yourself.
Maybe I'm just going to go with the inflatable thing that blows up
and it's just
like a snowman that some kid will inevitably shoot with a pellet gun just make a sunday
afternoon out of it put them up we'll do it no we won't we will not i know so out it's so it sucks
yeah i don't want to do that i wouldn't want y'all to do it because i know how bad it would suck
thank you talking about i was the lights guy at uh I would do our office like the last two years That's different from getting on the ladder out also like yeah like I
Don't remember seeing any photos where I was like, oh man look how Christmas you the barstool. Oh, I'm serious. Oh, I bet you crushed it
Y'all just wait. Oh, okay. Oh, just wait. Let's do this weekend of fun. Oh shit. I'm out

There's literally an invite in the group text.
Dave doesn't look at text messages.
Couldn't be me.
So that'll be fun.
I'm going to drink a It Hard to Say's Honor 2
and get some pizza rolls.
Make a bomb pizza roll.
Dave, you know,
Parks is coming with us.
Parks will be there.
What?
Well, shit.
All right.
Change of plans for me and Park.
Sorry, because I was going to take
your CC's for lunch Friday,
but I don't want him to double up on pizza.
That's a lot of carbs.
Pizza for the little guy.
Yeah.
And then Saturday we have our Christmas dinner.
I'm really excited for that.
Should be a great time.
And we can get drinks afterward. Gibson Street. Find be a great time. And we're going to get
drinks afterward.
Gibson Street.
Find us a Dirty Bill.
Decked out.
No.
If anyone even says
Dirty Bill.
I am going to be
pushing it so hard.
You're going to catch hands.
I'm doing it just to
piss Dylan off.
I will go home.
And I'm not even
kidding about that.
Oh no, we're going to
lose Dylan.
You don't want to lose Dylan.
We lost him.
Where'd he go?
Skipped right over the
Merriman Christmas cocktail hour. Oh fuck, I'm sorry. You did him. Where'd he go? Skipped right over the Merriman Christmas Cocktail Hour.
Oh, fuck.
I'm sorry.
You did.
Yeah, so at five-ish, right?
That's four, but you know.
Four.
Do I need to bring my Bluetooth speaker?
No, I have one, Dave.
All right.
Dude, yeah, don't.
Yeah, Brett's hosting a little cocktail hour at his place.
Should be fun, man.
Can you actually bring your Bluetooth speaker to dinner so we can play Christmas music?
Yeah.
I'm currently fielding suggestions for the best steel drum christmas music so just i can put that on will
you let me can will you authorize me to connect to your bluetooth speaker what if we just bring
will a steel drum and dave obviously knows how to play drums now so he can just
little drummer boy yeah that's my weekend in fun i'm really excited wow really excited little drummer boy yeah that's my weekend in fun I'm really excited
wow
really excited
wow
little water boy
never mind
what am I doing this weekend
I guess I'm going
Friday to the
pizza party
and was allegedly
invited to
well it's not a pizza party
we're just going to get
a beer and pizza
sounds like a party to me
yeah it's going to be
well and then if you want
I mean
afterwards we can do
like Dylan probably has to bail with parks but we can do like a little we can do a's gonna be well and then if you want i mean afterwards we can do like
dylan probably has to bail with parks but we can do like a little a little beer afterwards i don't
know 30 bills let's not do that have fun yeah okay i'll consider that i'll see you Friday night. Is it Friday or Saturday?
We've got big, big playoff implications.
We've got Panthers versus Dragons.
The Duncanville Panthers are taking on the Southlake Dragons.
Southlake is, of course, like a former powerhouse.
They still kind of are.
Duncanville knocked them out of the playoffs last year.
It's a big one.
It's up in McKinney. Maybe our boy Chad can go go maybe he'll go watch the game for me probably not then saturday morning 11 a.m we've got big 12 championship we got the bears we
got bears sooners round two i hate the 11 a.m kickoff it's just where's the game it's a cowboy
stadium okay it just it feels it doesn't feel, I feel like that should be a primetime game.
It's the Big 12 Championship.
This has playoff implications.
This one really does because, you know,
depending on what happens with Utah,
a winner of this could go as the four seed
and get absolutely demolished by Ohio State.
So we'll see.
Saturday night, yeah, what Dylan said.
Sunday, did anybody make a tee time no that klein's all talk so wow
me that's all i have to say about that man i'm intentionally staying in friday night
you're not going to actually no you might be able to catch me a pine house that that's
that's as far as i'll go. Did you actually get invited?
No, I have not gotten invited by anybody.
What are you talking about?
Dylan, are we crazy?
Didn't get invited to have pizza.
He's giving you shit for that.
So then, yeah, I got an early morning Saturday, though.
Because as everyone knows, Saturdays are for the lads.
We got an early 6.30 a.m. Everton-Chelsea.
Oh, how exciting.
We got the Manchester Derby at 11.30.
So I'll be watching that derby yeah i i don't really i don't i don't fuck with the derby that's as far as you
go in the european i'm excited for that though we got some good soccer coming up just just fyi
out there so catch me on my couch and then uh yeah i'm going to the merriman christmas hour
uh merriman family not family excuse me merriman cocktail christmas cocktail hour
that's a mouthful man
just
yeah
I don't know if I fuck with that
so then
what is it
Merriman cocktail Christmas hour
you can kind of
yeah it's
it's the MCCH
you can flip the C's though
I don't like that
no man we're good
alright
yeah and then
I'm gonna go to the Christmas party
afterward
and then
unfortunately
I had someone back out
of their shift so after the Christmas party I have to go to Wilmonds afterward. And then unfortunately, I had someone back out of their
shift. So after the Christmas party, I have to go to Wilmonds and be a bar back.
Are we not doing part of our business there?
Nope. And so then this is this is actually a true part of my weekend. I'm kind of scared.
Sally is in her last week of grad school, and they are having a bunch of people to a little
place you might have heard of Dave's called Lazarus. It's on the east side. they are having a bunch of people to a little place you might have heard
of dave's called lazarus it's on the east side and it's a bunch of her employees and co-workers

state of mind on sunday after uh our night on the town on saturday yeah you can't go to this
i'm scared to i'm gonna not feel good you're gonna have to wake up and
have a beer yeah that's good i mean that's just luckily laster's i don't know if you know this
either uh they have both coffee and beer you can just have whatever you want oh they're a crefe
it's a hybrid like the bean much like the bean much like the bean much like maybe i can get it transferred to the bean that's not a bad idea great for y'all i will not be watching the lions
uh dude i'm out so bummed it i'm and i want to i'm going to go ahead and apologize uh on behalf of
cowboy nation that y'all have to watch cowboys bears on thursday night i'm bummed that I have to watch it. Why? The Bears are in the hunt.
Because we them boys.
Well.
I want the boys to win.
I'm not one of them boys, but I'm supporting them.
I'll put out my technical material.

Unless they're sauteed.

Do you want me to bring any barbecue?
I could smoke some stuff.
No, you kept saying you were going to smoke meats
and cuck my entire party,
but no, you don't have to.
I kind of want Dave to show up
with just a bunch of bacon-wrapped quail
that he smoked.
Brett, what else happens Friday?
Anything noteworthy?
Well, me, Dylan Parts,
and I have a friend coming into town
who's going to be my date for the Christmas party,
so we're going to go to Pine House.
Oh, that's cool.
Me and Will are going to go eat ramen or some shit.
No, we'll be at Pine House.
We'll just be sitting at a different table.
Yeah, probably with a giant pole between our legs.
I'll be there.
Yeah.
Hey, can we learn from last time?
If, in fact, Will and I go,
like, can we get there early that waiting situation sucked

nope because I'm a late invite
I got the pity invite
Dave and I are not showing up early

what significant others I thought you said Sig eps fairly for anything. Oh, man. No. Are you guys going to bring Sig Uds? What?
Significant others?
I thought you said Sig Epps.
Dylan might.
I don't get that one.
Because you were in a frat.
So were you.
You're the frat guy, though.
Oh, you were.
Senior frat.
Just let me know if you're bringing Sig Uds.
That's not happening.
I'm bringing the homie.
Significant other, yeah.
He's my significant other.
He's a significant little dude.
He's my main man.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
We'll see.
I'm pretty psyched
for the entire weekend.
The menu's gonna fuck.
Then we're going to
this little Christmas party dinner

You said the name of the bar,
didn't you?
He said the name of a hypothetical bar
that we'll never end up at.
Got it.
Dirty Bills?
No.
Hey, Klein, if you want to go to Dirty Bills,
maybe I'll go with you later on.
When all the olds go to bed?
Yeah.
All the olds?
That's us.
Yeah, that's it, though.
Brett, is there any breaking news to close out today's episode?
Will, as a matter of fact, there is.
This has been a jam-packed epi, by the way.
It has.
A little choose-your-own adventure here, Dylan.
Do you want to go?
Multi-platinum recording artists, craft beer industry, or fast food?
Craft beer industry.
Are we getting our beers made
No we're not
But if you want to try
Paradox Brewing Company
P-A-R-A-D-O-X
Brewing in upstate New York
Scranton Lake area
Try it out
Okay
The news is
Craft beer brand Ballast Point
Ever heard of it
I have
Has been sold again
Again
Yeah
Four years after it was sold
For a Billy It was was sold for a Billy,
it was now sold for a tremendous loss.
Really?
Yikes.
Really?
Why did it sell for a Billy in the first place?
Constellation bought it, dude.
I like getting some Sculpins off as much as the next guy,
but a Billy seems like a lot of...
A Billy for a beer brand that did not play out well.
I really do like their beers.
I actually went to their place in San Diego
once and they were doing this weird
Asian fusion
tasting and they infused
their IPA with wasabi.
That's unnecessary. It was totally
unnecessary. I like wasabi. But
Sculpin is one of my favorite beers. Agreed.
It's a very good beer, which is probably why they
were sold for a billion dollars.
But unfortunately... You have to wonder how much our
cider is going to sell for. The Cayman cider?
Mm-hmm.
We'll check the market.
But
it doesn't disclose the amount that it was
again sold for. It was just
not a good investment.
Less than a Bluetooth speaker would have got.
Doesn't sound like it.
Hey, Dave. Hey.
McDonald's? Ever heard of it?
Give me the fast food.
I think I know where this is going.
McDonald's is putting its name
in the fried chicken sandwich wars, Dylan.
Might want to sit this one out, McDonald's.
I don't know.
No thanks.
I'll try it.
As the resident McDonald's goer
in the last week.
I'm out.
I'll do it.
You're loving it.
Knuckle me on that.
We're out.
Actually, right around this time last week,
I was driving in a
Ford Fusion rental
eating chicken tendies.
Just putting it out there.
Nugs, actually.
Was that your first
of two McDonald's stops
in one week?
Yep.
Yikes.
Yeah, they're getting
in the game, Dylan.
They already have
a chicken sandwich,
obviously, but they're
doing the same, like,
bulky fried chicken
as Chick-fil-A and Popeyes. We'll see. It is season you said you're not gonna try it you're gonna try it i'm
not i'm not gonna try it unless reviews are just overwhelmingly positive then i'm like i'll see
what it's all about but i don't i don't anticipate that happening david dylan do you have any more
breaking news because i think you do you're growing a raleigh fingers mustache i'm not
it's just naturally doing that.
I know.
It's connecting.
That's big news for me.
It hasn't connected yet.
I'm not doing a Raleigh Fingers.
Okay.
Wax the tips and turn them up.
Correct.
Not doing that.
That's not your Christmas party bit?
No.
Hey, make sure you wax the tips of your skis before we go to Brett.
I'm going to wax that ass on the slopes is what I'm going to do.
No, you're not.
No, me and you are going to spray the fuck out of Will and Klein.
Oh, Will's going to be crying at the end of the day.
He said he gets mad.
We'll be picking snow out of his hair for days.
I like going in with no expectations of my ability because I've never skied.
So that way, I mean, pretty much all I can do is impress.
He actually picked it up pretty quickly.
That's my goal.
I'd say we're going to spray you,
but since you'll be on the bunny slopes the whole time,
it's probably not going to happen.
You can do that.
I'll fucking spray you when we get back to the cabin.
With what?
Champagne.
Oh, okay.
That'd be fun, man.
You'd probably like that.
Every night after this trip, we're going to go back to the lodge,
and Sally and Alyssa are just going to be hammered.
I'm going to join them. They're going to want gonna be hammered. They're going to be hammered.
They're going to want to do stuff and we're going to be tired,
right?
Yeah.
We're going to be like,
only want to sit in the hot tub.
We're going to be smoking bowls by the hot tub.
Just fucking blazing.
We're going to be smoking cigars and shit.
Dude,
get some doinks in the mix too.
I'll show you how to roll blunt.
Can you smoke a cigar blunt?
Can that be done?
Like a,
like put weed in a cigar.
That's a blunt blunt dude. Of course. That's what a blunt is. A big put weed in a cigar that's a blunt blunt dude of course
that's what a blunt is a big-ass cigar yes that's a blunt all right it's they're not usually rolled
that fat i don't think but you can't do it i'm gonna dip that shit in codeine let y'all get
real fucked up i don't want to do that yeah i think that's probably actually might go to bed
we have to operate from like three to six. I'm more of an operate from...
Never mind.
Wait, what do you mean?
We're not getting off the slopes and going home.
We're getting off the slopes and going to drink for like three hours.
Oh, yeah.
And then we do our little siesta dinner thing, and then we go out.
Oh, yeah.
I got so much to learn.
I have no clothes.
I've got to go buy all this new stuff.
I feel like you're with a good group to learn all this shit
No I'm not going to ask y'all
Because y'all are going to tell me the wrong shit to buy
You're going to have me looking like dumb and dumber
That sounds dope
Dude yes
That's the dream
That's the drip too
I don't want to go in there too aggressive
Because I'll be a total poser
No dude own it
Alright fine
Should we get out of here? Fun pod What was the other breaking news? Nah, dude. Own it. All right, fine.
Should we get out of here?
Fun pod.
What was the other breaking news?
All it was was that Jay-Z's music is on Spotify.
Happy birthday, Jay-Z. Happy birthday, Jay-Z.
Does that mean he's bailing on title, or is he just like, it's not worth it?
I don't know.
H to the Izzo.
I never had a title subscription.
That's a fun fact about me.
I'll say what everyone's always thought about Jay-Z.
He's a top 15 rapper of all time.
Yeah.
Dude, shut up. I co-sign that.
Yep.
Sure.
If there's a top 15 list, he's in that top 15.
Your top two are like Logic and Eminem.
Yeah.
MGK.
I don't think I can name a Logic song.
Let's wrap up.
It's been a great epi.
It has.
Hold on.
I got some other stuff to talk about.
So, uh... Nah, we're good. I's been a great epi. It has. Hold on. I got some other stuff to talk about. So,
no,
we're good.
I just wanted to fuck with Dylan.
Cool, cool, cool.
All right.
Let's get out of here.
Get out of here.
