Welcome to the episode of Cacks and Crandons in the morning.

Yes, it is time.
It is time for another episode.
I love that each week you're just so excited to be here.
That's true.
Very excited.
Very excited.
It is time.
Yeah, yeah, it is you're right uh well how are you doing you know
every once in a while i get my like cleaning mood yeah but this time it's not my house it's like my
life bro oh it's been crazy so i my email clean dms clean. DMs, clean. Folders, clean.
Computer work, clean.
Going through taxes, done.
Getting my car washed and waxed and stuff, done.
I'm doing all the things, bro.
And I'm feeling good about it.
Went and worked out twice this weekend, feeling good.
Done.
Just, you know, everything's coming up jesse i'm
in the zone at the moment that will change rapidly i know who i am but for the moment i'm doing good
my one struggle is i watched some video where a guy said it's the something 75 day challenge
what kind of some stupid Some stupid TikTok thing I saw
where it's like, this is the hardest thing
you will ever do for your entire life.
It's the something day challenge.
I think it's supposed to be 75 days,
but the entire thing is you have
to drink a gallon of water
every day for 75
days. That sounds dumb.
And I was like, why?
He's like, dude, this is the number one weight loss trick. And I was like, well? And he's like, dude, this is the number one
weight loss trick. And I was like, well,
shit, it's no worse than like if I were to take
85 pills, you know what I mean? So
I figured, alright,
I'll drink a bunch of water, let's see what happens.
All that happened is I have to pee all the time
now. I'm in a constant
state of peeing.
There's not a moment that goes by
I'm on day four of drinking a gallon
of water. Terrible choice. Worst thing
I've ever done. But now I'm invested. Now I need
to see what happens. So I'm going the
distance, dude. I'm doing this.
I have to drink.
They didn't say I couldn't
drink anything else. Just that I had
to drink a gallon of water a day.
So I am in there.
And it made me realize that i was never drinking
even remotely close to a gallon i might have i don't know like two bottles of water a day
maybe like a liter of water a day with other drinks but like damn it is an unpleasant situation
i am it's i will say i uh do not like it at all, but I'm in.
I'm doing it.
It's happening.
Well, let's see here.
Okay.
So it says, how much water should you drink in a day?
The average is about eight glasses of water a day.
What does it consider a glass?
Six ounces? Eight ounces? Okay. Yeah, eight ounces of water a day. What does it consider a glass? Eight ounces?
Eight ounces?
Okay.
Yeah, eight ounces of water.
If you like exercise and stuff,
you like add a couple more or something.
But I don't think you need a gallon.
So eight ounces a day would be,
or eight ounces eight times a day
would be like four average bottles of water.
Roughly. Maybe three and a half bottles of water yeah pretty much if you drink like two big water bottle like 32 ounce
things and then like you probably get the rest of your water from like food or like other things you
drink like coffee and stuff now i gotta look up how much water is too much. Is there such a thing as too much?
I know you can drown.
I know that that's been a thing that could happen.
You can literally die from drinking too much water.
Right, right, right, right, right.
According, oh, man.
Bless the internet because everyone's crazy.
Right.
But some guy made a graphic that is how much bottled water would be in a gallon of water.
How much bottled water would be In a gallon of water
And a normal
16.9 ounce which is
500 milliliters of water
That's it's 8 of those is in a gallon
So I have to drink 8 of
I have to drink 8 bottles of water which is
I'm just literally going and buying like a gallon
I bought a gallon jug
And then I fill it with water
And it's you know what it's a thing all right so i'm trying
not to just waste plastic but um yeah it's an unpleasant experience i try to get it out of the
way as soon as possible like in the morning i'm like drink jesse drink as much as you can i feel
like that is the unhealthiest way to consume your water like you're supposed to just drink it
throughout the day i'm drinking the whole thing in the morning.
I'm just like, I wake up and I start chugging because I read somewhere,
and again, most of what I learn is probably internet BS, you know what I mean?
Like, I read somewhere, but I read somewhere that some doctor was like,
look, if you're going to drink caffeine, don't drink it in the first two hours of waking up because of, you know, like
the, the coming down off the caffeine will be worse if you wake up because your body's,
you know, chemistry isn't all cooked up to full. So you got to wait and then drink the coffee.
So in the morning you're supposed to drink water. And so that's what
I've been doing that first. When I wake up, I have a water like right next to my bed where I'm like,
go, go, go, go, go, go, go. And then I'm like, let's go. And then I, you know, take a shower,
do my stuff. And then I go upstairs. I'm like, go, go, go, go, go, go water, more water.
And then I come to the office and I'm like, coffee, coffee, coffee, everything's good.
And then I might have like a bottle or two of water here that I'll go home and
right. And I'll drink. I'm trying, I'm trying. And, uh, cause they're like, yo,
it'll make you full all the time. So you won't want to eat stuff. I'm like, that sounds like
a good plan. Um, it, it is it's I'm not, I'm definitely not hungry, but my body sloshes.
I go slosh, slosh, slosh, slosh.
I have so much water in me.
I can feel it.
It's crazy.
So, huh.
It's not good when someone goes, so, huh.
This doesn't seem like a long-lasting plane.
No, I, yes.
The thing is, is that the reason why I'm doing it is because the dude on TikTok was like,
it's the hardest thing you'll ever do.
And then it showed a compilation of people being like, I quit.
I couldn't do it, bro.
It was too hard.
And now I'm like, how far can I go?
So you're just doing it.
I don't expect to last 75 days.
It seems like way too long.
I don't, but I want to see personally how far I can get with it.
I see.
Okay. All right. like way too long i don't but i want to see personally how far i can get with it i see okay
all right yeah i will knowing me i will give up somewhere around like day 15 i know who i am
i'll be like yeah you know what i'm fine i went far enough i learned i learned a lesson or two
i'm all right uh yeah let's see this i was looking up the coffee thing you said and it says best time to drink
coffee is like an hour after you wake up they said two but like an hour or two well we can meet in
the middle hour and a half there you go hour 15 we'll say yeah well i'm not doing that
did you drink coffee immediately when you wake up oh i get up i kind of wake up a bit and i'm like
yeah you know lay in bed for like 20 minutes then i get up then i make my oatmeal start making the
coffee it's probably like 40 minutes after i wake up so i mean i don't know it's not like right away
i'm like so speaking of oatmeal oh man what is oh boy i, oh, boy. I don't know what that, I don't know what it's called.
I got some weird-ass granola gram something.
It's like, it's weird shapes, dude.
It's like fiber granola.
I can't even explain.
I don't know.
It's like weird.
It's like weird shapes.
All right.
It's like, I got it at one of those like it's not whole foods but it's like fake whole foods you know what i mean uh the ones it's like the cheaper version i see i went to
one of those and i saw you know i have the whole section that's like granola and whatnot and i like
yogurt with a crunchy like feature you know what i mean so i like adding granola to it yeah i get
that and so i found this thing that was like even like adding granola to it yeah i get that and so
i found this thing that was like even healthier than granola f your body up bro i was like yeah
i'm in let's do it so i bought it and it's got all sorts of weird stuff in it i can't i can't
think of something granola it it has coconut granola uh hemp. Something called zest, which I assume is a fruit zest.
I don't know.
It has chia seeds.
It has normal ass oats.
And then it has something else.
I can't remember what it is.
And then I add fruit and then honey and then yogurt.
Ah, okay.
I make it like a big mushy mix and it's
great.
See, I get the
kind healthy grains.
Kind's great. I actually have a bag
of kind. It's the chocolate one.
Ah, okay.
Sometimes I'll mix that. If it's late at night but I'm
really hungry, I'm like, I gotta eat something, bro.
I'll mix that with some yogurt and
it's like a good snack. Or I'll eat it by itself. I have a lot of pineapple. I'm like, I gotta eat something, bro. I'll mix that with some yogurt and it's like a good snack. Or I'll eat it by
itself. I have a lot of pineapple.
I realized
I have a problem, dude.
I love pineapple. Love
it. So in my fridge, I have
chopped up pineapple. I also
in the fridge have, I was
at this, again, the same like
fake ass not Whole Foods,
like Whole Foods. And they had some brand of watermelon I was at this again, the same like fake ass, not whole foods, like bootleg whole foods.
And they had some brand of watermelon juice that I've never heard of before, but it's
like mostly water.
So it's more like watermelon water and it's pineapple and watermelon.
I was like, oh, I got to try it.
So I bought a six pack of that.
Delicious.
Love it.
So that's in the fridge.
Look at that.
Delicious.
Love it.
So that's in the fridge.
And then in my cupboard, I have a freeze dried pineapple, normal dried pineapple, and pineapple and apple leather, fruit leather.
I have a problem.
I realize this is probably not healthy.
I love pineapple so much.
And everyone's like, well, Jesse, you know, you got to cut.
I'm like, no, look, this would have been gotta cut back. I'm like, no, look.
This would have been candy or some shit before.
Now, I'm doing better. I'm doing better than
I've ever done, so leave me alone.
I'm gonna eat my damn pineapple.
This could have been a cookie or something,
so piss off. Yeah.
Let him eat his pineapple. Yeah, I'll take the
pineapple chunks
or whatever, the dried ones,
and I'll mix it with that that
chocolate kind stuff and that's like a nice snack and i'll sit there and i i watched a what did i
watch the other night i watched a some new movie that's a guy ritchie movie that's on netflix
it is the most guy ritchie movie i've ever seen in my entire life it's an insane film about the about marijuana dealers in london guy richie made a
movie called the gentleman from 2019 the gentleman matthew mcconaughey is a american drug dealer who moved to the UK to sell
marijuana to the UK
and then Hugh Grant
is the second main character and he plays
a sleazy
reporter who has
dug up all the information on
Matthew McConaughey's character
and so the entire story is told via
his perspective to one of
McConaughey's associates
and it's again Guy Ritchie so it's story is told via his perspective to one of McConaughey's associates.
And it's again,
Guy Ritchie.
So it's half present half in the past out of order.
There's like,
Oh,
but I forgot to tell you this bit. And then it shows an entirely different scene of the exact same scene you
watched or they just stopped talking about the story altogether.
There's one moment where they have a grill outside.
Hugh Grant's character can't get over how this grill cooks meat
and warms your feet at the same time.
And so they make a steak and they eat a steak
and that's like part of the movie.
And then they get back to the story.
All right, The Gentleman.
Give it a watch.
It's insane.
All right.
So when I'm drinking my gallon of water and eating my granola, make sure to watch The
Gentleman.
I was checking if it was on the watch party thing, but it's not.
Oh, yeah.
No, that and another movie that's very similar to it, Bullet Train, are on Netflix right
now.
Most things that are weird are on Netflix right now.
If you're looking for weird ass movies, that's the place to go.
No, it's not worth it.
That's too much hassle. We have to keep repeating what the timestamp was.
Yep.
I'm just doing the old quick check here.
No new Nick Cage movies either.
Sad times.
Yeah.
One day we'll get there.
Yeah, they'll update it soon.
Oh, yeah, let me tell you about a fun thing I've been into.
Okay, yeah. I've been into. Okay.
Yeah.
I've been watching yodeling.
I have so many questions.
Why?
For what purpose?
So I was on YouTube.
Do you remember?
All right. Back in the day, it was like years ago.
There was that yodel man.
He's Takeo Ichi, right?
Whoa, that's not who I was thinking.
I was thinking of Franz Lang.
Franz Lang.
The guy who's like, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do.
A yodel-like guy.
I've seen that guy.
That I used to play all the time.
That guy's great.
I don't know who you're talking about.
So Takeo Ichi, he made the chicken yodeling song
where he's like but he's like chicken yodel oh i do know who you're talking about yeah i watched
that because i was like oh yeah i remember that was a thing like years ago it was like a big meme
and i was like all right and then i started just watching his other yodeling things.
And I was like, does he have a lot of yodeling things?
He's got a lot of yodeling thing.
In fact, he had a video of him yodeling in Germany in like 1987.
If you don't know who this is, listener, imagine a man who is just like a Japanese dude who is in Lederhosen, but everything about his vibe, everything about every video, everything about the way he's filmed looks like a PBS or any sort of public broadcasting from the early 80s vibe.
Yeah.
Everything shot beautifully, but also a little weird.
Yeah. It's very funny and so there's a lot of like classic yodeling things there's like the
you know the got talent yodelers like ukraine's got talent has sofia shuddenko or something and
she's like a big yodeler person there's's probably like the America's Got Talent yodeler.
There's like some TikTok kid yodeling in Walmart or something.
There's like a whole bunch of yodlers.
But Takeo Ishii has some absolute bangers.
All right.
And he released one.
When you say bangers, is this goofy bangers or what is this?
Like I've been listening to these like in the car.
Like he made this song.
Do you have a link for me?
Yes.
In fact.
I need to hear this song.
I linked it to you.
I linked it to you five days ago.
You did?
And I said a new Takeo Ishii just dropped.
Is this Brandon four weeks ago?
Four weeks ago.
Oh, look at his sweet soul.
He's so old now.
He is.
But this song is an absolute banger.
Hold on.
All right.
You got to listen to this.
Stop.
This is what you're rolling down the street to?
Yes.
This is top tier i have the best mental image right now of you and toast going slow rolling down the street
some sort of your windows down just like slow rolling checking out people on the sidewalk
because it's amazing it's mainly just when i'm driving when she's in the car she just plays her
music right right i mean that's how that's how marriages work yeah i get it yeah but when i'm
alone i'm yodel i'm playing the yodel music and then towards, towards the end, he really gets going.
He picks up the speed.
He's power yodeling.
Towards the end?
Going to the end.
Let's go.
Go like 315.
Oh, damn.
He is speeding up.
Look at this man.
Go.
Go, my man.
Go, go, go.
Admittedly, your week has been much better than mine
i'm over here drinking water like an idiot and you're rolling down the street like
yeah that's true well except for the fact i keep tweaking my neck
well we gotta stop yodeling so hard dude that's true uh i'm actually convinced that when i do
neck stretches that's what makes my neck more susceptible to getting tweaked, essentially.
Because I go to neck physical therapy, alright?
I do my neck exercises, trying to strengthen my neck.
I think it's good.
But, from all the research I've done on stretching, stretching, like, doesn't really do anything outside of making you more, like, flexible.
Uh, just general stretching or neck stretching just stretching in general uh in fact static stretching specifically
dynamic stretching is good for like warming up so dynamic stretching is like you know how
you know when you're like bopping around like you're like punching stuff and you're like going
back and forth and like that's kind of dynamic stretching right where you're doing a motion over and over like you're
swinging a baseball bat it's like taking practice swing and that gets the blood flowing to your
muscles but when you do static stretching it's making you more susceptible to injury all right
so and the reason at least from what i've read from everything, is that your muscles tighten for a reason.
They tighten because they're trying to protect you.
Or when you kick a ball, your muscles need to be compact
so that you're not like, bleh, and your leg's going all over the place.
And so when you do stretching like that, especially static stretching,
you're making the muscle kind of weaker and more elongated and relaxed,
and it makes it more prone to being injured.
Can you give people an example of the two?
I mean, the dynamic stretching is like what I saw, where you're like kind of, you're doing
a repetitive motion over and over.
Which would be like what?
Give us an example.
Uh, okay.
How do I describe the thing over the thing?
Just one stretch you would do.
Just trying to make it so everyone understands all right so like you know uh if you're gonna let's say chest press
right let's say you're gonna chest press and you know you're like or bench press whatever and you
like start you're gonna do the motion of like pushing the bar out right and so what you would
do is you'd like go forward and back over and over with your arms so it's like
you go out and then you come in and then you go out and then you go in so you're kind of doing a
motion back and forth so it's essentially when you actually do the bench press or whatever with the
weight your body's prepared for that is what you're saying right okay and it doesn't you know
cause any you know problems for uh you, it doesn't increase your injury rate.
It's just warming up your muscles.
And then, but if you were to like, say, you know, like static stretch, you're like, oh, I'm going to bench press.
And you like kind of do some stretches like, oh, and you like hold it for 60 seconds.
And then you like go forward and you like hold it for 60 seconds.
That's actually what's worse for you.
If you do it after exercise, it's okay.
But from what I've read and all this stuff, they're like,
yeah, it's not great to do before you exercise.
And a lot of people do stretch before they exercise.
But wouldn't a static stretch be better like you wake up in the morning?
It depends what you're about to do.
Then you stretch.
Well, I mean, if you're just about to go like
take a shower and then go to work.
I mean, yeah, if you're not doing anything crazy,
like it's fine.
But from plus everything I've researched too
is like there's no real crazy benefits
to stretching except flexibility.
So if you're, gee, if you just want to be flexible. That's a pretty good benefit.
Well, it depends.
Some people are already flexible.
Yeah, well most people
aren't though. Those flexible
people, screw them. They got it good.
The rest of us are like,
okay, here we go.
Oh boy.
Well, yeah, if you can't, touch your toes to tie your shoes,
then stretching to do that is probably beneficial.
So it depends, like, what your goals are going to be.
But, like...
But there's also, like, neck stretching.
Like, neck...
You know, like, when people move their neck side to side or whatever?
Right.
That can get you, too.
Like, you're not supposed to
put your head all the way back.
Oh yeah.
No you're not. You're really not supposed to be
like super forward
or like all the way back.
Like you're supposed to just be neutral.
Big thing is just neutral.
Left right good.
Forward back bad. Don't do that.
Yeah. A lot of times it's like
i'll i've had things with my neck for a while that's why i do my neck physical therapy but
the main thing is just strengthening because if your muscles are strong you get injured less
my main point is that strength training is the primary thing that fixes a lot of issues because most of the time you get injured because your muscles are weak or like some they're like overcompensating for other muscles.
So like a lot of times you have really strong muscles from like sitting one way.
So if you sit improperly, like you're, you know, different muscles get stronger than others and then they overcompensate
and then it causes pain so that's why you're the main thing is trying to create balance again in
the body you know that's that's the fun and excitement of i mean i will say even though i
like tweak my neck and like it hasn't been as bad as it was in the past that's been good it's like
there's been times where like i woke up up from sleeping or like, I don't know
what I did.
And I like, can't even move.
I'm just like, like my whole neck is just like, can't move this way.
Can't move that way.
It just hurts.
Barely like lay down or do anything.
But now if I heard it, it's just kind of like annoying.
I'm like, ah, but I don't get like the bad movement stuff.
So I guess the physical therapy is working, but it's still it's still annoying.
I don't envy you.
Every time you're like, I'm working out, doing good.
Also, I'm falling apart at the moment.
Yeah, but that's the thing.
We're all falling apart.
Everybody's going to start getting these issues.
Might be like, oh, my neck's fine.
But if you're still sitting in a chair all day, if you're not moving a lot, if you're doing it, it's going to get you.
Might not be for a while, but it'll get you.
It's just welcome to the society we live in.
Yeah, especially with phones.
Like everybody looking down at their phone.
Yeah.
So, I mean, you know, because people have to work in an office environment all day and then
you gotta you know then you go home and you're looking at your phone you're looking at tv and
like you know it's uh it's it's straining all those neck muscles so that's uh that's my
crendor ted talk about there you go i love that you just went off on neck muscles Yeah
And it started because of yodeling
Yeah
That is the path we took to get here
Was yodeling
Yeah
You made it seem like I'm crazy
I'm talking about strength in your neck
You're just like yeah
I just wanted to know What you were referring to when it came to muscles, and we started yodeling.
That is the road that we walk every one of these episodes.
We start at point A and end up at point F somehow.
We skip all the other points.
You're like, yeah, okay.
That's what we got.
Hold on.
Make you proud to...
All right.
I'm looking up the stretching thing.
It says, can static stretching cause injury?
Not only can static stretching decrease performance, but it can also leave an athlete more susceptible
to injury.
So, yes.
I mean, you were right.
I didn't say you were wrong.
Yeah.
Well, it's like, you know, you see people at the gym and stuff they're like before
they work out they're like stretching and doing all that but really you shouldn't you can do it
after you work out but that's uh you know just fun little tip just one little tip throwing it out
there keep everybody safe okay yeah that's what the show is for tips it's all about tips about
how to get physically fit that's where people tune in cox and crendor that's 100 that's what this show is for, tips. Pro tips about how to get physically fit. That's why people tune in to Cox and Crandor.
That's 100%.
That's what I hear every time we do a show and meet people in person.
It's like, oh, my God, thank you so much.
Thank you so much, Crandor.
It's because of your amazing tips.
Like, don't stretch that I am the man I am today.
But there's a thing. There's also, like, crazy shit where people, then there's people like, am the man I am today. But,
there's a thing. There's also crazy shit
where people, then there's people like,
why would I stretch if I don't want to become flexible?
Those people are like, well, it increases the range
of motion, so if you have shortened muscles,
then it helps increase that
shortened muscle range, but if you do that
without strengthening, then you're just making more
prone to injuries. So technically,
I guess you could, but then
you would need stronger muscles while you're stretching i don't know there's like a bunch of
crazy shit with muscles man it's wild muscles are wild that's the takeaway it's wild muscles are
wild muscles are wild um see how that and yodeling about it what a crazy week you've had yeah but yeah oh yeah we
had a valentine's day how was that that was good we uh we made shrimp scampi oh the food of love
yep that's what they always say shrimp they say shrimp scampi is the food of love
yep and uh it was pretty good.
It was actually really easy to make, so we made that.
We had some champagne, and we didn't go out.
We just watched some movies and stuff.
It was nice.
Honestly, I think going out for Valentine's is overrated.
What was your Valentine's night movie?
Was it romantic, or was it like anime?
Oh, not anime.
Uh, but...
Ah, not anime.
Not anime.
Uh, I think we were...
What did we watch?
I know we watched a Disney movie.
That was towards
later on. We watched...
What Disney movie was it?
Do you know?
We watched...
Oh, we watched Atlantis.
Ah, okay.
I know what...
I think I remember that movie.
It was actually a good movie.
It's the one where they go underwater,
and then he's like,
the lost city of Atlantis is right over here.
And then they're like, all right.
And then he has the whole team that goes with him.
And then they find Atlantis, and the Then they're like, alright. And then he has the whole team that goes with him. And then they find Atlantis and the guy's just like,
yeah, I'm gonna take this place
over. Then they're like, you're crazy, dude.
And he's like, maybe I am. And then
they fight him off and then
Atlantis is saved.
Is that how the movie goes?
Yeah.
Yeah, pretty much that.
Pretty solid, though. I like that movie and then oh we
also watched mulan watched mulan again that was fun uh yeah that's pretty good we also
we also had qbc on in the background for a while great background noise how romantic how romantic yes what did you do i'm gonna let you
know i honestly i don't remember i didn't do anything but i don't remember what what day was
that tuesday i don't remember what i did that day but it was oh oh i remember all right great I remember alright great that's why I blocked it out
we were working on a video
for
the YouTube channel
and Mari and I
had to go through it and like
figure out what we were keeping and what we were getting rid of
and I was at the office till very
late doing that
yep
now that's romantic.
Yeah, it was super romantic.
We sat there and he was like, you could tell he was tired.
He was like worn out.
And I was, and he, cause he, here's the reason why.
Cause he was like, Hey, can I have tomorrow off?
And I was like, we need to go through this video, dude.
And he's like, well, we can do it today.
I'm like, okay.
And so that's what we did.
Also, we could have tomorrow off.
That's why I'm the best boss ever.
So he could have tomorrow off. That's why I'm the best boss ever. So he could have tomorrow off.
In this case, Wednesday.
I stayed here late to go through all that stuff with him.
On Valentine's Day.
Who was I going to spend it with?
I had nothing going on.
Yeah, no.
So I was like, all right, sure.
But that's what we did.
Yeah, that's my problem.
I was like, what did I do?
I blocked that out
because it sucked I hate going through like
long editing clips of stuff
oh it's the worst
that's the thing with Valentine's Day is like
it's either
well there's like numerous tiers of Valentine's Day
because back in the day
when I was single I'd be like
this is a stupid
hallmark holiday for idiots and whatever.
But then when you're in a relationship, you're like, all right, as long as it's not like crazy.
Like there's some people where it's like this is Valentine's Day.
We have to go all out.
Right.
Like that's dumb.
But, you know, you just use it as a day to be like let's just like
chill out and like hang out together right like i feel like it's fine to do that you don't have to
like you know go crazy and buy a bunch of stuff you don't have to go out to a fancy dinner i mean
you just be like hey let's like cook stuff and watch movies and you know like kind of like a
at-home date right and you can use it for something
like that. I think that's the best way to go about it.
I would agree. I think
having that knowledge of
what your partner likes or doesn't like and
what you want to do together is part
of it, right? Yeah.
And it also lets you see what your partner values.
Yeah. Because there's a lot
of times where you see videos
of people online who are like this
valentine's day suck because i didn't get like jewelry like damn okay all right i know you were
like that yeah there's some people like oh my god i forgot i was in target and this one girl
was talking to this guy and she was like yeah i wish i got flowers after all the guys i've dated none of them got
me flowers i gotta be honest i feel like flowers is the literal least you can do that does seem
like the least you could do yeah it's it i it just seems i keep thinking like i could easily just
get you flowers like happy valentine's day i was thinking about you and i bought these flowers
it's not that hard it's not that hard to think about other people that's all I'm saying it's really not
it always shocks me how there's like people that are so oblivious to it I don't know if I mentioned
it here but there's like that commercial where I was like on the radio and they're just like fellas
do you want to get her a thoughtful gift and then uh it's like a clip of her opening something and she's like a new juicer this sucks and then
they're like fellas get her something she wants get her diamonds and i was like what like she
might not even want diamonds this is like i have heard this commercial dude it sucks yeah and i'm
just like this is like the least thoughtful thing it's just like oh man me no i don't know how to
think what do i buy it's like diamonds that's thoughtless like no that's just like oh man me no i don't know how to think what do i buy it's like diamonds
that's thoughtless like no that's just oh this is thoughtful because it's expensive that's all it is
it's like no like just it's a little bit like bribery you know it's like i give you diamonds
you give me a little something like okay all right yeah it's it's extremely not unless she
like mentions like oh i really want this diamond diamond thing by guarantee most people aren't doing that
So it's just I hate that commercial
To me when she's like a new juicer this sucks. So I'm like, oh this commercial again. This sucks
Yeah, right like if you got her a vacuum cleaner, that's a lame gift
Right. Oh, she's a juice and stuff get her that if she wants to juice get her the juicer. That's a lame gift. If she's into juice and stuff if she wants to juice
get her the juicer. That's a nice gift.
Yeah.
Maybe she wants a vacuum cleaner.
Maybe she's like oh man I really could use a new
vacuum cleaner. It'd be great if I got one.
Good point. Great point.
It just depends.
It's all about just listening.
Imagine.
Listening and communication. all i'm saying is nearly every
woman that i've talked to about this they're like one of the hottest things i've ever seen a man do
is the dishes all i'm saying is sometimes women are just as simple as men it's not you just gotta
like take care of them like treat them okay and you. It's like, don't be a dick.
That's the moral.
It's like, I thought of you at the last minute,
so I went to the jewelry store and bought you something expensive,
so no matter what you got me, I win.
Yeah, no, it's surprising how many of those people there are.
Yeah.
And if you want to buy someone jewelry, do it,
but also, what are you going to do next year just keep buying jewelry
Yeah probably
You went to the furthest extreme
Like there's no creativity
There so next year when you're like
I made you a macaroni card
Well now she's going to be pissed off that you didn't get her more jewelry
Yeah
You set a dangerous precedent my friend
So yeah we did that And then Yeah. You set a dangerous precedent, my friend.
So, yeah, we did that.
And then I edited Pointless Top 10 yesterday.
So we got a new Pointless Top 10 food vendors.
I saw you tweet about that.
Yeah, so that's a fun one.

but I think I've used it like 50 times in this segment.
You know, you got cars backing up.
You got some planes.
You got some automobiles.
You got the yodelers.
You know, these people are getting kind of mad at the yodelers
because they're just yodeling out of their car doors.
And some people not a big fan of the yodeling, which I don't understand.
You know, I've been yodeling.
Fantastic art form.
Fantastic music.
But some people just don't get it.
Back to you.
Thanks, Crendor.
Yeah, I feel like at this point you said traffic-y so much it must become a word.
You know what I mean?
Yeah. Like when people make up slang. Yeah. And it must become a word you know what i mean like
when people make up slang yeah and then it becomes a word it gets put in a dictionary i say
webster should reach out this dictionary.com says traffic is a word well there you go see
yeah then that's dictionary.com that's a website on the internet.
Yeah.
So it's definitely a word.
All right. Hell yeah.
Okay.
Well, what is going on in weather?
Weather.
We got a weather request for Freising in Bavaria, Germany.
Home of the oldest brewery in the world,
Weihennstaufen,
founded in 1040, still active,
and since 1865, you can
study brewing beer there.
They also said the only weird part
about the sauna story was Krendor going
in non-nude in the
sauna with headphones on.
Listen, sometimes I just want to go in
for a couple minutes, get the heat, and then
leave. Alright? That's it.
You know?
Sometimes I don't want the full-on 20-minute sauna.
But!
Here we go.
Everyone's right to get after you.
I mean, sure.
I'll take it. Honestly, I should have been
naked in there.
So what is this? Weissenstoffen? Is that the name of it? W-E-I, I'll take it. Honestly, I should have been naked in there. So what is this?
Weissenstoffen is the name of it?
W-E-I, I assume.
Weissenstoffner is the beer, but the place is called Freising.
Freeising, F-R-E-I-S-I-N-G, Germany.

I'm looking at all the restaurants here everything's a brew pub I found one place that is a
bamboo sushi kitchen but everything else everything else I'm looking pub. I found one place that is a bamboo sushi kitchen, but everything else, everything else I'm looking at.
Oh, I found one pizza place finally.
Everything else is a brew pub, and I'm going to let you know, love it.
When I was in Cologne, my goodness, I couldn't find a piece of greenery anywhere.
I had to go eat at the convention center to get a salad.
Everywhere else I went, it was bread
and sausage and beer, and I'm not going to lie,
loved it for the first few days. It was the best
I was living my life. By day five,
I was like, I just need
something green. I need anything
green.
I got the biggest salad
they had, and I was like, oh, yeah.
I've never craved a salad in my life
until I was in Germany.
What about the Weissbrau?
They got a...
No, I don't see any green.
There's a cucumber.
There's a polar bear in a tuxedo.
Yeah, everything else is like...
I'm looking at this one restaurant,
five stars, it's a brew pub.
The first thing I see on the menu
is chicken covered in gravy with potato
and then another potato and then cabbage.
But the cabbage is pure white.
There's a little green on it.
And there's another one.
Another.
Oh, you know what?
I found a place.
It has a salad.
But I just want to show you this image because it is exactly what my
experience was in Germany.
I love Germany, but this is my experience completely.
It was two giant pieces of meat, deep fried, potatoes, little baby salad.
Giant beers.
Massive beers.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
This is the place I was looking at.
It's got the polar bear.
If you go down.
Look at this other one. It's got the polar bear. If you go down. Look at this other one.
It's two big bowls of, oh, man.
If you scroll down, there's one that's like two big vats.
One is of potatoes and various cabbage, and one is just meats.
And I'll be honest, that is right up my alley, dude.
I am here for that.
Oh, yeah.
I actually have bratwurst tonight.
Oh, man.
I need to go get some bratwurst
That needs to be in my life
Oh yeah, you gotta get the brat, the sauerkraut
There's another one
It's not sauerkraut
It's the one that's like the purple one
But it has like a sweeter taste to it
Oh, I don't know what you're talking about
It's in some of these images
It's not sauerkraut
I'm sure someone will tell us
It tastes like almost cinnamon-y
Oh it's delicious dude
Oh it's so good
This says it's just red cabbage sauerkraut
There's something special
I don't know what it is
It has a different name
But man do I love it
There used to be a German restaurant
My parents used to live in Kentucky.
There was a German restaurant very, very close
to them. And anytime we would go
there, it was amazing because it was so
like Kentucky
German. It was kind of like
goofy. The restaurant itself
on the inside felt like just someone
who kept all their tchotchkes from Germany.
Just like a bunch of random crap
everywhere. And it could only sit, I don't know,
maybe like 20 people total.
So it was always packed.
And the food was delicious.
But I would never get sauerkraut there.
I'd always get the other thing
that was the purple cabbage
that was like, I don't know, man.
It had a different taste.
It was so good.
Like, I love sauerkraut,
but it was something different,
and I loved it.
Huh. Interesting. Okay.
The only thing we have close to us that's like that
is Wurstkursch. There's one
down the road a little bit,
and it's like a sausage place that makes their own
sausage, and you get all sorts of sides,
and they have like 80 types of mustard.
It's great. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. That sounds good.
And they have tr truffle fries.
And when you go in there, the restaurant's actually one giant kind of like picnic table.
It's like a bit.
And then there's all the beer on the wall.
Oh, it's lovely.
It's a great place to go hang out.
Huh?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That sounds great.
That's what I'm saying.
Come to LA again eventually.
Yeah.
And eat some sausages. LA again eventually. Yeah. And eat some sausages.
Yeah.
Things you could get in Chicago.
But in LA.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And that's the weather.
Okay.
Let's talk sports.
Sports.
Welcome to the sports desk.
Here we are.
Sports.
Right now the NBA All-Star
game's going on.
Cool.
Over in
the NHL, we've got the Bruins
in first, the Hurricanes in first,
the Stars in first, and the
Golden Knights in first.
Over in the NFL, we had the
Kansas City Chiefs win the Super
Bowl, so we are now into the offseason for NFL football.
And don't look now, but the XFL is happening.
Is this real?
Are they bringing it back for a third time?
They are.
It's back, and they've been playing.
They're playing right now.
Get out of town.
Is it on Fox as usual?
It's on ESPN.
What?
Yeah, the DC defenders are beating the Seattle Dragons 22-18 right now
Crazy
Crazy
Yeah, and this is opening week
Because I guess the NFL is over
So right now the St. Louis Battle Hawks
The Arlington Renegades
The Houston Roughnecks are all 1-0.
And then the Seattle Dragons and the Defenders are playing.
And then the Vipers.
I can't even see where that is.
What is that?
Oh, it's the Vegas Vipers.
The D.C. Defenders, the Orlando Guardians,
the San Antonio Brahmas. like the Brahma Bulls.
Yeah.
And then the Seattle Sea Dragons.
Those are the garbage.
Yeah.
The Sea Dragon at least has a cool looking logo.
But the DC Defenders is just a D.
Yeah. Like, OK. least has a cool looking logo but the dc defenders is just a d it's just a d yeah like okay yeah i remember some of these from uh previous seasons where they've done stuff like this yeah so so i
so is it still like double a football or do they have people from the nfl in it now they got i saw
three quarterbacks that were like second or third string NFL quarterbacks.
I mean, you might as well.
They're going to let you play.
Exactly.
So, I mean, it's it's cool.
I mean, I'd rather that because then it's like, oh, I know those guys and you get to like see them play.
And they're probably trying to play, you know, to go back to the NFL or something.
But that's probably what the XFL should do is be kind of like a minor league system. Absolutely
that's what they should do. Like, if you're third
string QB, you're not going to see any play
time, but if you are on a winning team
in the XFL, that
is good for your prospects of getting picked up
by someone. Yeah, exactly. In fact,
one of the guys on the Panthers was
a former XFL quarterback, and he actually
beat the Buccaneers.
And then he didn't do great after that, but he actually beat the Buccaneers. And then he didn't do great after that, but he did beat the Buccaneers.
If anything, I kind of wish that, you know, like, what is Minshew doing?
Besides, like, nothing.
Can they make him, like, if Minshew became the best player in the XFL,
that would be the most fitting thing in the world.
Oh, it would. He should just go to the XFL.
I would love for Minshew to be the most dominant player in the XFL.
Just like destroying everyone.
Everyone's like, this guy's amazing because he has that vibe.
He has the vibe of a guy who would walk out of his trailer down to the field.
He's parked in the lot of the stadium the entire week beforehand.
He walks out of his trailer, walks in, puts his gear on,
throws 85 touchdowns, walks back to his trailer, cracks open a beer, Minshew.
That's all I imagine.
I agree.
That'd be fantastic.
That'd be amazing.
Now that's sports.
Okay.
What's our fact of the day?
Fact of the day.
Day.
Day. Fact of the day. Fact of the day. Day. Day.
Fact of the day.
Here it is.
America's first bank robber deposited the money back into the same bank.
Is this true?
It is true.
At the Bank of Philadelphia on August 1st, 1798, a sum of $162,821 was stolen from the vault.
There is no sign of forced entry, so it was thought to be an inside job.
Patrick Leone was imprisoned as the prime suspect as he'd been the carpenter that worked on the vault doors.
But then they realized a man named Isaac Davis had been depositing large sums of money
into the Bank of Philadelphia. It turned
out he was one of the robbers involved.
In 1799, Leon
was freed and Davis only ended up
repaying the money without serving a day
in jail.
You know what's amazing about this? What?
It reminds me of a meme I saw the other day
where, so, I looked this guy
up online. He literally has a painted by John Neagle, Pat Lyon at the Forge, 1829.
It's an image of this man, the first bank robber, at work.
This dude lives on in infamy as a piece of artwork, right?
It reminds me of this meme, and it was,
One day,
some will think about you for the last time in eternity.
You'll be forgotten by the world
and the universe.
And the response was,
not if I eat the Mona Lisa.
And I keep thinking about that
because that's what this guy did.
He literally did something so ridiculous.
He is, everyone now thinks about it.
The man has a painting.
The man has a painting.
I mean, that's the secret.
That's my favorite quote.
Not if I eat the Mona Lisa.
I think about it all the time.
That's this guy.
That's this guy.
And that's your...
He did something so ridiculous.
He went to the same bank.
He took their money and went back there like,
I'd like to make a deposit.
Like, that's amazing.
To be fair, back then, you know, there's no cameras or anything.
True, true.
You just figure, like, the balls on this man.
Although there's probably only one bank in his town.
Where else was he going to take the money?
Yeah, that's...
Oh, it's so funny.
That is funny.
But that's your fact of the day.
All right.
What is our big news story of the day?
Big news story of the day.
Las Vegas thieves steal catalytic converter from the Wienermobile.
No, not the Wienermobile.
I know, not the Wienermobile.
It was a very German episode. We got the Wienermobile i know not the wienermobile uh it's a very german episode we got the wienermobile we
got yodeling and we got the the german episode goes out to germany the oscar meyer wienermobile
has been dogged by some thieves in las vegas the 27 foot hot dog shaped vehicle was in sin city
this past week for a series of events tied to the Super Bowl, but early Friday morning, the Wienermobile's catalytic converter was stolen.
As a result, the engine could not cut the mustard.
Ha ha!
It had to be towed to a local truck rental facility to the shock of employees.
Joseph Rodriguez told the station he was surprised by what he saw when he got to work.
A hot dog truck? No way!
Rodriguez told
KLAS. Imagine
like a huge hot dog in the middle
of your bay. There's like all these other trucks
so you gotta work on it.
The crew did a minor repair
to fit the Wienermobile with a temporary
catalytic converter that allowed it to make
a previously scheduled 10 a.m. appearance.
However, Rodriguez noted that there's
a four-month waiting list for catalytic converters.
Metro Police told KLAS that it has not yet received a theft report,
but the hotel where it was parked said its corporate division is investigating.
Thefts of catalytic converters, a car part that filters out pollutants,
have increased in recent years.
According to Los Angeles Times, Toyota Priuses, not novelty meat vehicles,
are a typical target as their converters can be resold for more than $1,000.
You know what? I was typing in, why would you steal a catalytic converter, and then you said right there.
Yep.
The Wienermobile first hit the road in Chicago in 1936 and has since expanded to a fleet of six, each traveling about a thousand a week.
Six Wienermobiles seems like too much.
That's a lot of Wienermobiles.
That just seems like a lot of Wienermobiles.
Six?
I agree.
Too many Wieners.
Too many Wieners are out there.
Too many Wieners are on the road.
We got to get them off the road.
Get them off the road.
But, you know, that's the big new story
yeah I'm trying to figure out
the fetching price would be at least
$1,000
but like where are you going to sell a
wienermobile catalytic converter
I guess the catalytic converter on a wienermobile is the same thing
is it though? I guess
but why are the Toyota Prius ones
more expensive, then?
I guess because there's more Priuses on the road.
But if they're all the same.
And so you can sell them to a chop shop, or you can sell them to, like, a...
Because, you know, you can...
And then the dealership or whatever...
Not dealership, but, like, the repair guy can mark it up.
Yeah, but you just said they're probably all the same.
But obviously they're not all the same if they're targeting one.
Well, it's probably because it's easier or there are more Priuses.
I honestly don't know.
I have no, I've never once thought about the theft of catalytic converters,
but I know it's a big issue.
But I've never been like, yep, that's important.
Yeah.
I've never thought about it.
And now I'm like, if they're stealing the Wienermobiles,
they can take anyone's. First the Wienermobiles, they can take anyone's.
First the Wienermobile, then the world.
If the Wienermobiles take it, then that's, you know, nothing sacred.
Yeah, nothing is sacred anymore.
Unbelievable.
Anyway, speaking of nothing sacred, that's it for us.
