Hello and welcome to another episode of the F*** Face Podcast.
My name is Jeff Ramsey.
With me, as always, the other people.
This is episode 166.
How's everybody doing?
Nick, are you a movie guy?
You love movies? Yeah. Good. We had to wait a week for that answer. We did, we had to wait a while But I got it. I got to the bottom. We were just talking about summer 98 movies
I was just curious how many people had seen. I wasn't sure if you were a movie guy or not. Big movie guy
I need to look through the list though of all the 98 stuff. Fair enough. Yeah, we found out that I'd seen 10 and Jeff had seen
24 I believe. 24.
I counted.
It was like 18 or 19.
Wow.
Speaking of Summer of 98, I googled Summer of 98 just to see what would come up.
There was a book created, written called Summer of 98.
When Homers Flew, Records Fell, and Baseball Reclaimed America by Mike Lupica.
It was, I guess, about when Mark McGuire and Sammy Sosa
were having this steroid off to hit the most illegal home runs.
Well, have you seen what's happening next year?
No.
A Creed show.
Oh, right.
Summer of 99.
Creed is doing Summer of 99 with three doors down.
What?
So they acknowledge that this is Summer of 98 and they don't want to step on our toes
if so facto vis-a-vis they must so does that mean if we if the summer of 98 stuff goes well
does that mean that next year we have to do the summer of 2000 because the summer of 99 has been
covered oh we're like trading off well yeah because the summer of 99 will be next. Also, that doesn't make any sense.
Why are they doing it in April
if it's summer of 99?
Yeah, I don't know.
At least we waited till summer.
Yeah.
No, I think we still have to cover.
I think if we feel good
about summer of 98,
again, which I truly do believe
is like the last good year,
then we got to do summer of 99.
You know what? You're really winning me over and
this real realization that 98 was the year mcguire broke the record uh is pretty crazy i had forgotten
that and it's the year i got out of the army wow good year yeah it was here i moved back to austin
and met gus and bernie so it you take the good with the bad, I guess. We're like firmly out of the steroid era
of baseball, right? At this point? Or is it
still...
I mean, we're in
the hidden steroid era of baseball.
That's what you mean. So it's safe to assume...
If you're a Padres fan, the not-so-hidden era of
steroids. He had ringworm
or whatever. Yeah.
Tainted supplements.
I just know like in the NFLfl it doesn't happen often but
it's like the tests are so obvious you can work around it i wasn't sure what like baseball's
regulations were it's the same what percentage of home run balls do you think are are tainted
are steroid balls at this point i don't know if it's a majority but it's probably got to be pretty
close has to be a lot right yeah
that one would if you caught
like one of McGuire's balls with you
would that change your opinion on it learning
like post steroid like in a
pre world where people realize
was it always known like how
common was the knowledge of
steroid usage in baseball during the like
McGuire I mean record setting
dude there was a period in
time where sammy sosa barry bonds and mark mcguire all doubled in size yeah barry bonds from where he
ended up to where he started in the league is a different human being yeah in a way that is like
hard to hard to understand yeah it's really naturally really crazy uh and i think a lot
of it has to do with like his head size i mean like his head got so big oh wow like his head
in that first photo is inside of a helmet the photo of of his head in the second part on the right,
it looks like he has the helmet on.
It's so big.
He looks like when Pac-Man
would eat the power-up pellet.
Yeah.
Like, it's larger.
That's what it looks like.
I know that, like, you know,
there's growth and there's time,
but it's just like...
That is wild.
I think it was also very known with guys like Kinseiko
and a bunch of that.
So, like, it was a pretty, I would say, open secret.
And then I think, like, the government got involved
and that's when it was like, oh, can you believe this?
And everyone goes, yes, we believe it.
And that's it.
Yeah.
Like, he could be inside of what he became you
know like in men in black where like they reveal like the little alien inside the human he could
just be that he could just be inside himself that's crazy i didn't know how much he doubled
men in black summer summer of 97 yeah should we go forward or backwards do you think we should do
99 or 97 if we we like how 90 i mean we could we don't have
to be linear with it we could pick summer of 2006 if we want to next that's fair that's a good point
there's no i mean this was summer 98 was an arbitral i wasn't arbitrary but i mean it doesn't
have any like mathematical tie to 2023 sure summer of 06, I went to Acon in Dallas.
Yeah? I was there.
How was that? I met Chewbacca.
I got a picture with him. Really?
Yeah. Wow. And it was a real picture too. As opposed to a fake one?
Well, they printed it and gave it to me.
Oh, did you have to pay extra
for the print? Oh, I'm sure I did.
And because of that, I don't know where it is anymore.
But it happened.
I was about to ask if you still have it, but I guess not.
I got it somewhere.
I just have no idea where.
Oh, man.
Hey, I'm looking at the Vegas notes, Gav, and I have one I don't understand.
I wrote down Gavin's driver.
What is that?
Does that mean anything to you?
My driver.
Your Uber driver with Jack.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah. We're just very different people, Jack and Oh, yeah. Yeah.
We're just very different people, Jack and myself.
Ah. He had a
conversation with our driver that didn't stop
for the entire ride from the airport to the hotel.
It was like 25 minutes of
just incredibly
loud conversation. Did you feel pressure?
Yeah. I felt like, oh,
now I should be chiming in. But usually I would
sit down and be really quiet and be like, this hotel thank you really and then not really say anything
and your experience because you use a lot of uber drivers are they typically quiet yeah really
see i've had the exact opposite i've been in and my uber experience is being in a car
and them immediately initiating conversation and then me getting
annoyed with the other people i'm in the car with that they're not saying a word and i'm having to
talk to this person i'm doing the all of the lifting when i don't want to be doing any of it
but nobody else but do you want to talk no oh because jack jack was loving it jack oh jack was
on it okay or jack is somewhere in Austin right now
telling a story to one of his friends
about how he was in this fucking annoying Uber ride
with Gavin who wouldn't help out
and the Uber driver wouldn't stop talking
and Jack had to do all the heavy lifting.
Well, the best part is that I heard the conversation
multiple times because Jack then retold
the things he was talking to the driver about
as more people arrived on this trip.
So I was really beaten down by it. But i feel like i don't know i just not very i'm not very chatty no i
yeah i agree i'm with you i don't want to talk to people i know let alone strangers so andrew
andrew you're doing something wrong then because you're clearly giving a lot in response to the
first uh few questions that lead them to believe you're a talker.
Oh, it's, you know, just like some people,
maybe it was like Jack was driving, essentially,
where some people are talkers in that situation.
And I don't, I would rather be uncomfortable talking to them
than just like not acknowledging it at all
and it turning awkward socially.
So I just had to lay on that grenade
and I kept waiting for the cavalry to arrive the four people in the back seat and nobody said a fucking word
whole trip i guess i don't i don't activate when there's a silence like i don't see a silence or
like a long conversation is like an awkward thing to be filled i love i love a group that i could
just share a silence with oh yeah it's a great thing a friendship almost but it's it's depending on the person there might not be an acknowledgement that that was
uh like a choice or decision they might view that as like oh i just had the wrong approach let me
try this and then it could spiral they could just keep on attempting to initiate and it just uh
uh it's awkward so awkward for me to just think about this constant delays
you're just like not continuing that i hate it so i'd rather just jump in i think you secretly love
it but that could just be my anxiety that could just be me like anticipating that that is a
scenario that would happen when in reality that's never how that's gonna play out well i remember
we've tested out some silences on this show,
and you've been very uncomfortable trying to fill them.
I feel like they need to be filled.
What, like this silence?
Yeah.
See, I'm just talking.
I don't even have anything to say.
I'm just filling silence right now.
That wasn't even a point.
But it's also an anxiety thing, maybe.
I've been ripping old home videos.
I got a thing that lets me convert it to my computer, which is partially maybe why I had technical difficulties in the last episode
um and I'm watching stuff and I'm fine when I'm like a baby I'm like watching tapes of me like
under the age of one I was getting anxious watching me at like three and four at Christmas
even though I have no ability to change the convert or not the conversation but like the acts that are happening i'm just watching going like fucking don't don't screw up like don't
cause a nuisance like don't just relax calm down you don't need to be screaming right now why are
you screaming why are you screaming don't grab that kid's toy like don't cause problem it's
terrible what is wrong with you me yeah and that's the problem i know how dumb
i was especially at that age but i don't remember the actions that i did in that moment so i'm just
watching going like you're a fucking idiot you're gonna cause problems for people that kid is so
excited were you worried that that you topple over uh no wasn't worried about that i figured
that out later i do i need to clip it so badly There's a shot of me laying down when I'm like seven months old and my fucking nose
looks unbreakable.
Even then it like it stands out how unbreakable my nose is.
Next time we record, I'll see if I get clipped that and bring it to the show.
But surely a nose that stands out is more breakable.
No, trust me.
You're going to look at it and go like that's solid, right?
It stands out as as structurally
sound yeah okay well to be fair every every time i've seen you as a baby i've been expecting
a certain level of it and then i'm absolutely gobsmacked with the result so i believe you
believe do you think that the vancouver child obviously not andrew because there's no proof
that andrew is the vancouver child kicker. Just a lot of really heavy
circumstantial evidence and hearsay.
Do you think that maybe, I never got into
the psychology of the VCK, but do you
think it's possible that he or
she or they might kick children
because they're transcribing
videos of themselves as children
and there's a deep-seated self-hatred
and they're not really kicking these strange
kids on the street, but they're really kicking themselves.
Oh, I could see that.
Because they're not small enough to kick anymore.
So they have to find some other vessel to kick.
Something to think about.
Yeah.
Would the Vancouver child kicker, if they could go back in time,
exclusively kick themselves?
But they're limited due to technology.
It's like, it'd be like, you know, that whole scenario.
Like, if you could go back in time
and shoot baby Hitler, would you?
It'd be like if Hitler could go back in time
and shoot himself as a baby, would he?
Why would he?
I don't think he would.
I mean, he shot himself later, right?
Yeah.
Did he?
Yeah, he fucking blew his brains out in a bunker.
I thought it was a pill. I thought it was a cyanide thing oh was it i think so how
did he there's always such dilemma with like would you go back and blow hit baby hitler's head off
but i mean like why not give it a try like why why wouldn't why wouldn't you do it
why not give it a try yeah i mean it couldn't go any worse are
you saying that there's a large number of people advocating against killing hitler yeah it's like
the whole moral dilemma of the butterfly effect that you could end up with you know 16 hitlers
or something i don't know i don't i but i don't think the phrasing of it i think is maybe i don't
think a lot of people are struggling over the choice of should Hitler have died.
I think there's a consensus
on that. Prior to.
So you would go back and off little baby?
Yeah.
If it's Hitler? Yeah.
And how are you doing it?
I haven't thought about it.
Jesus Christ.
Nah, he blew his brains out.
Really? Yeah. April 30th, 1945.
I feel like it's always portrayed in movies and stuff.
Blew his shitty, racist, Hitler little brains out.
What a weird conversation.
So I think my favorite part of the Vegas trip
was that everybody was in bed by midnight every night.
I like my friends.
My friends also go to bed early.
I was a little scared
that I would have to be up
until like four in the morning
trying to keep it rolling,
and that was not the case.
I mean, it didn't help
that I woke up at five the first day.
I mean, it was, to be fair,
that was the case for Jack.
He was up gambling
until like four a.m. every night.
Like Saturday night
when we all came home
from Meow Wolf and went to bed,
he walked down to Treasure Island
and gambled for like three more hours.
He was mad that we all ended that craps game.
I think we were all up and then we just called it a day
because it was getting close to 11.30 or something.
Oh, right.
We went to Celebration Station to gamble or whatever.
Yeah, and then we were going to leave.
We just started walking away, just leaving without him.
We just backed away slowly. Well, here's why why because there's this thing you can do in craps where you get where
you bet a full line so you bet on you bet that you're gonna roll the two three four five six
seven eight nine ten eleven and twelve before you roll seven which insinuates that you're gonna be
rolling for a long time so i walked walked up to Jack and I said,
hey man, everybody's tired.
I think we're going to go home now.
And Jack said, cool man, yeah, I'll join you.
And then I watched him hit that
and hit all the numbers at once,
as if to say, I'm going to now do this.
And so I just started backing away
and then I just went straight.
I walked all the way outside and just got an Uber.
Then he had to run to meet us at the Uber
because he crapped out.
And then he's like, well, I want to ride back though.
And then had to run to meet us as the car came.
And then we had to put seven people in a Uber.
Yep.
That's why I changed the group chat name to
Will Knees Patillo Make the Car in Time.
But we should, because we teased in the last episode you should talk about the security
incident at the basketball game Jeff
so my soon to be father-in-law
Dwight is kind of a
like a food explorer
he's like he's like one of those dudes that likes
to try out new stuff wherever
he goes to and he always like kind of looks up the cool
thing or like the interesting
foods and flavors at the place he's going to.
He's a lot of fun to go to Italy with because of that.
He's very adventurous.
And so he discovered this place in Vegas.
He's really into birria tacos right now.
Like they're like his favorite thing.
And he discovered this place in Vegas that sells birria tacos and birria
bao buns,
which is insane. Now, what is a birria tacos and birria bao buns, which is insane.
Now, what is a birria taco?
Eric, you could probably explain it better because you've had them longer.
It's like a fried taco, I guess.
It's a taco, more of like a, I don't want to say like hard shell because it's not necessarily
a hard shell.
It's just, it's a taco usually with beef and then you just be into
yeah the like shredded cheese because it keeps it all together um and then you dip it into like
i guess lack of a better term like an au jus or like a stew um and so you're dipping these tacos
in and getting a bite and it has like it's just like so much more flavor because you're getting so much in each bite.
Yeah, it's like a cross between a taco and a French dip.
Yeah, I'd say that's pretty close.
Yeah, and so the idea of like this fusion birria bao bun
was pretty fucking exciting.
And so we were talking about wanting to figure out a way
to go to that restaurant and get them.
And because we had this nice little sweet area
that y'all set up for or i don't know
whoever thank you so much for that by the way where we like were behind the backboard and we
had like access to like a table and sofas and like little hot dogs and shit you could have
it was actually kind of like what we did with the brahmas but a little nicer and uh not that the
brahmas thing wasn't nice i'm not insinuating that it wasn't. It was just, you know. And so he just asked a lady that was working there who was like, I don't know, getting drinks and stuff.
He said, hey, can we bring outside food and drinks in?
We probably can't do that, right?
And she goes, oh, no, you can here.
We don't mind.
And he goes, really?
And she goes, yeah, it's not a thing here.
He goes, she's like, I know most places probably wouldn't let you, but we really don't care.
And he's like, oh, OK. Yeah, she was like, staff do it places probably wouldn't let you, but we really don't care. And he's like, oh, OK.
Yeah.
She was like stuffed all the time.
Yeah.
It's like stuffed at all time.
And so he and I looked at each other and we're like, what do you think?
And he's like, I don't know.
And I was like, yeah, I don't know.
So we asked the second person and the other person told us the same thing.
And so we were like, OK, so I Uber eats a bunch of the Beria tacos and Beria bao buns to us.
And then it took like an hour.
And then we went and stood outside in 125 degrees in a parking lot and
waited for him to show up,
shit myself and passed out.
And then when I came back around,
we would,
we go to walk back in,
go to the,
go to the security intro entrance.
And the guy goes,
the fuck do you think you're doing?
And we're like,
excuse me.
And he's like,
you can't bring outside food and drinks in here. And it was like aggressively angry at us. And we were goes, the fuck do you think you're doing? And we're like, excuse me? And he's like, you can't bring outside food and drinks in here.
And he was aggressively angry at us.
And we were like, we got permission.
And he's like, from who?
And we're like, I don't know.
The lady that said we could do it and the other guy that said we could do it.
And he's like, well, they're not me.
And we're like, okay, man, we're not trying to cause a problem here.
They said that we could do it.
They said it wasn't a big deal.
We're in this NBA experience thing over there. And he's like, you can, we're not trying to cause a problem here. We just, they said that we could do it. They said it wasn't a big deal. We're in this NBA experience thing over there.
And he's like,
you can't do it.
And he just like,
kind of just like,
just like kind of berated us for a minute.
And it was kind of annoying.
And,
you know,
Dwight and I are about to go like,
okay,
man,
we'll just eat them outside.
Fuck.
It's not the end of the world,
you know?
And there he goes,
you know what?
I'm gonna let you in this time.
And I was like,
we're like,
this will be the only time you know
we're not we won't be back tomorrow and uh and so he lets us in and we go and we sit down and we
unpack the tacos on the table and the lady we start eating them and two minutes in to eating
them like i've eaten one taco the lady who told us we could bring them in comes over and goes
you guys have to get rid of those tacos right now.
And we're like, what?
She's like, they can't be out where people can see them.
And we're like, excuse me?
She goes, I got in so much trouble.
You are not allowed to bring food in here.
I was wrong.
It's only for staff.
They can't be visible.
I got to take you guys to a special place to eat them because you can't have them here.
And we're like, what?
And so we start to package it all up.
I'm listening to this and I'm just stuffing my fat face.
I'm just trying to get it all as much down as possible.
And we're like, okay, well, well, can you save our seats?
And she goes, I can't do that either.
If you leave, somebody else can take them.
And we're like, cause it's in like this little lounge area.
And we're like, so I was like, you guys go eat the tacos.
I had mine.
I'll sit here and hold the space.
And so they went and ate the tacos, the rest of the tacos.
I only had one.
And I just sat there by myself until they came back.
Dumbest fucking thing I've ever seen.
They like stuffed us in the, what was it?
The NBA experience.
You're saying like they stuffed us in there that we couldn't even access that area with our like insane seats that were very very good
yeah the nba experience thing is like a whole other ticketed thing and they told us to go
fuck ourselves and they went yeah just here be here you just sit there there were more people
around us in there once you can see it they could see us in our seats and then according to dwight
y'all just stood over a trash can and stuffed your faces guiltily.
Gavin's trying to send dong files.
Oh shit.
Why are all my pictures dongs now?
Is this one a dong?
Gavin's files are converting to sleep spaghetti.
That's a dong file.
Oh shit.
This is really cool.
People have been complaining that they're like,
how come these guys
just don't learn
how to use Discord already?
I fucking hate Discord
and I refuse to learn it.
It's also the difference
between using,
we're using it on the desktop
and our phones at the same time
and I'm sorry,
but uploading photos
on phone to Discord
is not a problem.
Why did you take a picture
of the back of me?
You were really pissed off
that the Uber driver
was driving away from us
instead of picking us up and it was
47 degrees and I just
thought that was the perfect pose.
This fucking woman refused to drive
over to the pickup area
and like would
not do it. Drove around in circles. Security
is like pointing her in.
She is fucking ignoring
them. There's no shade.
It is 112 degrees.
And I'm just standing in a fucking ditch surrounded by shrubs going, what the fuck are you doing?
What the fuck are you doing?
What you can see is that there were about 12 people stood under the shadow of a tree.
That's where I'm taking that from.
We're all just like shuffling, trying to get off the, out of the burning sunlight.
Miserable.
I've got a clip.
I've got a clip I can show.
Oh, you have a clip?
From Vegas.
Let me see if I can share this window.
Is it going to be a dong video?
Because I really, I don't.
This might be dong, actually.
While you're doing that, I'm going to upload a photo of the, just of the place where we were at.
Just so Andrew can see.
The NBA experience?
Yeah.
It was, Andrew, it was really cool.
It sounds awesome.
It was awesome.
Oh, wow.
What a view.
It was unlimited food, unlimited drinks.
Like, it was fucking awesome.
We just, we posted up.
It was great. It was great it was great i and you
were you were like having a bunch of beers i sucked down a couple of bloody mary's i had every diet
coke in the building i actually got pepsi they had that pepsi yep oh and then this this is the
coolest thing i've ever seen in my fucking life that's the uh the sphere yeah the new madison
square garden sphere thing. Holy shit.
It was cool twice.
Once when it was a basketball,
and the other time when it was a moon,
and we were driving back to the strip,
and it felt like you were on another planet.
It looks so cool.
Like, the pictures don't do it justice.
I didn't realize how new it was.
Like, they've only turned it on in the last month or so. Yeah, I would say it's about three weeks old.
Maybe a month old at this point.
And one of our group asked the driver to go buy it so they could see it, and apparently say it's about three weeks old. Very recent. Maybe a month old at this point. And one of our group
asked the driver
to go buy it
so they could see it
and apparently it was off.
That was me.
Dwight and I,
we asked the guy,
we said,
hey, can you drive us
by the Sphere?
We want to see it at night.
And he goes,
yeah, sure, man.
I'll drive you by,
no problem.
It was on the way back
on Saturday night.
It's about 11 o'clock at night.
So he swings by,
he drives it back
and it's pitch black,
it's off.
And we go,
oh, it's off.
And he goes,
oh, yeah,
they turn it off
at like nine o'clock now.
We're like,
you mother fool, why didn't you fucking tell us that the moon was was the coolest i think
yeah the moon was when we got done with meow wolf and we were leaving area 15 which was very cool
very cool place met a lot of people and everything we met a lot of cool people there met the
facilities manager there that was awesome really really. And then driving back to the strip, the that thing was lit up so bright as the moon and
rotating.
It was it gave you like an uneasy feeling.
It was very, very cool.
It looked quite real.
Did they still have the Gerpel drink at Meow Wolf?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I took a picture.
I took a picture of these two with the Gerpel drink.
I'll drop
it in here in just a second but like fantastic yeah vegas for jeff's bachelor party i can't i
don't have like enough time in the world to say how much fun i had it was me too man it was
surprising jeff was so cool summer league was so cool it was it was just so much fun the summer
photo looks like a disheveled version of the end
of oceans 11 looking out at the table yep that photo of jack with the planet behind them how
cool is that and then here's here's these two they're gerping uh they got bigger they had big gerbil. Whoa! Oh, wow.
Okay, so you have a clip, Gavin.
Yeah, if you want, you see my stream?
See it there?
Oh, there it is.
Okay, here I come.
I see the back of Jeff.
Fuck you!
I'd merely said to Jeff,
I merely said,
you and Eric plan this?
And Jeff was like,
what are you talking about?
I was like,
you're shit, dude.
And then Jeff was on a mission he's trying to get a peek
okay
you can't see
oh
oh come on
I'll go change
yeah you are.
That's what you're doing.
Both wearing the bootleg Zimmer RTX shirt.
Oh, little face boys.
Oh, I'm so happy.
Heading out to be our wolf.
And they were like, oh, what if this got changed?
I was like, absolutely not.
Yeah, so nobody changed.
So that's fantastic.
So that was Eric and I hanging out the rest of the night
in the same shirt.
I had a funny realization about RTX,
the most recent one that we had.
So like last year, we sold grown tubes, right?
And there were people in the company that complained of like,
why are we giving the people their noise-making devices?
That's a terrible idea
i saw a post about how we were some posted in our subreddit that one of the items we were selling
this year for rtx was a pizza cutter advising people if they bought one you could not carry
like it could not go in your carry-on you would have to check that bag to get it, which made me realize how dumb we are.
We gave the audience noisemakers the first RTX we did merch for.
We armed the audience for the second RTX we did.
We gave them knives.
We just sold knives in the middle of the convention center.
And there are no complaints about it.
But I never thought about it to that point that we just armed everybody. I don know if you could have entered rtx with a pizza slicer but if you walked
out would you be allowed back in with you yeah i don't know i would love to know that if someone
tried to get blocked that'd be hilarious i just i never considered until after the fact that
we allowed people to have weapons in the middle of the hall they would have just peace bonded it
people to have weapons in the middle of the hall. They would have just peace
bonded it.
It's a knife.
I never even heard. It's like a sharp thing.
Yeah, it's a circular knife.
They just spray
orange.
Maybe next year
we'll do a mace or something.
Oh, maybe. Yeah. Cool.
That's a good idea. Bear spray.
It's a tiny explosive
jeff do you have any other vegas notes i don't think so just that i had the best time of my
life and that you all are wonderful and i love you dearly and it was just a really great great
time it was it was totally worth surprising oh i did have like i will say like i think it was maybe sunday night
eric and i were hanging out in the uh or maybe sunday i guess breakfast it was when you and i
were hanging out in the sports book oh in the sports book yeah yeah sunday morning and we sat
down and we talked for maybe an hour and a half about face and it was so much fun we just bounced
around ideas and just got so many ideas and came up with a bunch of
show concepts.
And man, just that that was a really like that was really fun.
That that period.
Oh, it's great.
Yeah.
Yeah, it really was.
Yep.
It was just like a really focused, relaxed time.
And we were just like those moments where like just the ideas are flowing, you know,
it was cool.
Yeah, that's great.
We should do a thing i was thinking where
we just have like a an idea pitch and make like a document of concepts that's a great idea because
i feel like we have a lot of things that are like kind of in the works maybe in our head on top of i
think we have content that we've forgotten about that we just haven't posted for later but just
like we did a uh does it do season two thing yeah that i
just i forgot we did until that has to come out off the does it yeah that has absolutely yeah but
i'm just saying i forgot that that was even a thing we did until the other day and i think that's
good content i'm excited about that actually and i'm excited we will get to does it do here before
too terribly long i think it's in process now. So is that right, Eric?
We'll be filming it by September, October, I think, right?
I hope so.
Yeah, we'll see.
This is a great question for someone else.
Okay, fair enough.
If it was up to me, we'd do it tomorrow.
We have other stuff.
You realize that we have like Fuck Face Off coming soon.
Yeah.
We have to do that.
That's true.
Well, we did some logo work today.
That was fun.
Yeah.
Did you guys see that report
that pooping only every three or more days
is linked with cognitive decline?
No.
Yeah.
Which, if you think about it,
so if you don't shit enough,
you get dumber.
Okay.
So, I gotta be Einstein.
Yeah.
No, you gotta be up there.
I'm shitting four times a day right now.
I gotta be the smartest dude on Earth.
Here's the thing, though.
You binge drank for years,
which damaged the brain cells,
so maybe you're actually just back at even
because you're shitting so much,
but the alcohol really fucked you.
If you didn't go through the alcohol thing,
you would be Einstein,
and unfortunately, that brought you to our level
yeah so now I'm just getting back to normal
yeah now you're
I'm shitting my way back to average intelligence
yeah okay
I like that I'll take that but you know what you're looking
really fucking cool doing it you got
the shades on you look great
I definitely wear my shit shades
every chance i get the best way to learn a language is through immersion living where the language is spoken
natively and using it every day but that's not possible for everyone so what's the second best
way to learn a language babble because with babble you can start speaking a new language
in just three weeks this summer you can start speaking a new language in just three weeks.
This summer, you can start speaking a new language with Babbel. Why Babbel? Because it works.
Instead of paying hundreds of dollars for a private tutor or fooling yourself with language
apps that are little more than games, Babbel's quick 10-minute lessons are designed by over
150 language experts to help you start speaking a new language in as little as three weeks.
Babbel is designed by real people for real conversations. All of Babbel's tips and tools
for learning a new language are approachable, accessible, rooted in real-life situations,
and delivered with conversation-based teaching. They have such convenient courses that help you
learn real-life conversation skills, the things that really matter. So it's easy to pick up on
things like how to order food or ask for directions, speaking to merchants without having to consult language
apps while on vacation, which is something that nobody wants to do. Plus, Babbel's speech
recognition technology helps you to improve your pronunciation and accent. If you can't pronounce
a word, it's almost like not knowing it at all, in my opinion. Like it's it's so important to have
those skills. Studies from Yale, Michigan State University,
and others continue to prove Babbel is better.
For instance, one study found that using Babbel
for 15 hours is equivalent to a full semester at college.

were uh you're glad that all the other people all the friends that went to outside of Jack Vegas thing in bed early because I've been going through I'm really fucking boring crisis a little bit.
I had that for the way you're saying that you're the most boring of us three.
I I'm not saying that I'm just saying I'm having a crisis and realizing how boring I am, which is something like I'm aware I'm boring,
but then coming to terms with the specifics and the extent to which I'm boring
has been alarming.
Like I,
I went into bed early the other night.
I like crawled into bed at eight 45 and I was so fucking excited to be in bed
early because I had time to get cozy and have a good sleep.
And like six that since that point,
I had been so excited about getting into bed early.
It has completely shifted my schedule.
I typically would stay up pretty late.
Now I'm an early bed guy because it brings me genuine joy anticipating getting comfortable
and then just having a good sleep.
I feel like you've been sick recently.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah.
So like getting sleep has been an issue, but it's normalizing.
But I've just been so excited about it.
So maybe you're right.
Maybe that will go away.
What won't go away is we had a conversation in the past about when our childhood experience
died, when we could no longer, you know, I used to pretend that I was a knight on a battlefield
fighting guys and like with the sword and run around.
And then we just couldn't do that anymore.
And we lost a part of ourselves.
I realized the other night I didn't lose it.
It's just really fucking boring now.
I lay in bed pretending it's raining.
I listen to rain and pretend it's raining outside.
And I imagine that
and that is as deep as my imagination now gets as an adult there are no more battles there are no
more wars all i do is pretend it's raining outside i'm imagining weather i stink like that sucks
that's so fucking boring embrace the boring it's like a warm boring blanket i love it does it make you
feel worse when it's actually raining because then technically you're not actually you're not
imagining anything it's just what's really happening that would yeah i would i'd be lost
if it actually rained i guess now like i'll pay attention to it i don't know what i'll do maybe
i'll like listen to a beautiful warm beach when it's raining outside maybe i have to change the
weather to some beach or just the sea yeah just like an ocean like a wave sound and like i imagine because like it's not like you
know when you hear rain like i'm adding my own visuals to what that is i just do the same for
waves i guess i don't know but yeah i realized that like no it's not that i've stopped like
pretending things i'm just pretending weather now and that sucks that's such a sad realization yeah i was it's like you bet i couldn't sleep i was like i
fucking i'm boring i'm so goddamn boring pretending weather i don't know man i think
it sounds awesome so are you bummed when you wake up there are you like oh, I don't get to be comfortable anymore um
No, because I get excited about getting comfortable that evening. I immediately you already like the anticipation
Yeah, by 11. I'm fucking excited. I'm gonna crawl in the bed
I got my air pods all charged up because of you Gavin. I got the cable
I'm all ready to go if I want to get the rain going I'm situated with the complete opposite I wake up and I'm so excited that there's so much of the day
left and when the day is running out I'm just like oh well no I'm not listen I'm not giving up on the
day I'm excited about the day but I'm anticipating that late night getting cozy as well I'm pretty
excited about it are you thinking about that before breakfast?
Uh, you know, I'm not a big breakfast guy. I typically will go straight to lunch.
So that's a tough, uh, no, you'll have lunch at like 10 or you just won't eat breakfast.
I just won't eat breakfast most of the time. Yeah. Cause you know, I wasn't into cereal because I didn't drink milk as a kid.
So it's just like, I'm not an eggs guy.
So it's like breakfast is not a great meal.
I love waffles, but no, that's an anytime food.
Getting into bed and laying in bed
is so fucking nice and comfortable
that I'm like, most nights I'm sitting in my living room
watching TV and it's like 8.15 and I'm like, it's too early. And I have to force myself to sitting in my living room watching TV and it's like 8 15 and I'm
like it's too early and I have to
force myself to stay in the living room till
nine so I can just go lay
in bed and watch TV for the 45 minutes before I fall
asleep there's nothing
better than ending the day in a comfortable
horizontal position in your
bedroom yes
the only and I wake up I wake
up excited about the day just like gavin does
i'm just i'm excited about every aspect of it from getting to to be alive and to do the day
to very excited to get to be in bed the only problem with it for me and it's a time zone issue
i get into bed now at like let's say nine ish or 9 30 at the very latest and i get all cozy i get all
comfortable and then i'll go through a thing of like i want to check in on my friends i want to
see how jeff is doing and gavin's doing it's 11 30 for you guys and i this is like it's too late
i'm not gonna text you at 11 30 at night just to say hi like this is past the time you can
answer you in the morning i'll text you whenever okay well now i'll start doing that because
genuinely i'd say almost every day of the week i think like i really want to check in with you guys it'll be like 8 45 are you worried
about like waking us up yeah i don't want to disturb you in some way i just feel like there's
a cutoff time for like no there's not a cutoff time for this level of friendship i may not respond
to you but it won't be because i'm annoyed it'll just be because i'm sleeping okay yeah my my phone
goes do not disturb when I'm charging it,
which is pretty much only when I'm asleep.
That's great.
Does your phone have a
nighttime setting, a dim setting?
Yeah. Like where it
changes shade for like night? Yeah, it like goes
yellowish, so it doesn't cause
some chemical in your brain.
I don't know how to turn that off,
so mine just goes from 4am.m to 401 a.m
i had to update my phone in the world yeah well i don't i don't want it my screen one night i don't
know how i turned it on i was like oh fuck my screen is orange everything is orange i couldn't
figure out what was going on and then i learned that but it was a nighttime thing and so i don't
know how to turn it off but i was able to set it to only last one minute where i'm ideally not awake from four
to four oh one yeah so you never benefit from it i never benefit well is there i don't think there's
a benefit at all for me i don't need it to be orange i'll just dim it and i just fall asleep
well i think it's like the blueness is what is what uh keeps you up oh really yeah so if you're looking at the blue
bluish whites is that real i have no idea yeah because i i feel like there are glasses right
that like block the blue i just assumed all of that is not real depending on who our sponsor
is this week yes it is okay uh yeah you can get actually a pair of glasses that work between 4am
and 401 i will look into those then.
And maybe I will use our promo code, depending on what the sponsor is,
and get a great discount.
Thank you.
Was it annoying, Eric, when I kept ordering everything that you ordered?
No, it was just something that I noticed.
It just seemed like a thing that you went like, ooh, and me too.
It was very funny.
I respect that you didn't feel pressure in that scenario, Eric,
because I would start feeling pressure.
I don't give a fuck what Gavin gets.
I don't care if he likes it.
I would.
See, that's where we differ.
I would feel like I got to bring the bangers out
if I know he's copied everything I do.
I can't have a weak drink or food item in the line.
None of my orders are ever weak to begin with,
so I never have any worry that they're not all bangers.
I'm ordering stuff that's good as hell.
There are no mid-tier drinks that you sometimes enjoy?
Like what?
I mean, I didn't follow you with the beers.
I went Bloody Mary.
Well, yeah.
There you go.
See, I would have gone the other direction.
I would have ordered the grossest fucking thing possible
to try to trick him into, into like a cement mixer or something.
Whoa, what's in that?
It's like this drink. It's like milk and
something else and you drink it and it like turns
to, it turns solid in your mouth.
It's fucking gross. Somebody gave it to me
on my 21st birthday. It's like
Baileys and lime juice, isn't it? Because it like
curdles in your mouth. It's fucking
hideous. Do you know about that, Gavin?
No. Yeah. Do you want to do cement mixers? Yeah, maybe afterwards It's fucking hideous. Do you know about that, Gavin? No.
Yeah.
Do you want to do some mip mixers?
Yeah, maybe afterwards I can try and stuff it into a glove.
It's not enough alcohol to get you drunk, but it will taste bad.
Yeah.
I would give it a go.
Yeah.
Bad.
Gross.
Yuck.
Speaking of gross, I had a realization yesterday at the grocery store that I think might lead to, I don't know how, but I think it might lead to benefits for us.
I realized in the produce section that there are fruit combinations that nobody has made
yet.
Okay.
Have you ever in your life, like you're used to it, you see like strawberry mango, cherry banana,
like whatever.
Kiwi strawberry.
Kiwi strawberry is a great one.
You've never seen,
and we could invent the drink,
the slushy,
the candy,
whatever it is.
You've never seen lemon grape.
No.
No, I haven't.
It doesn't exist.
No.
Nobody's ever thought to combine it that's it's like it's
like how there's never a bluish yellow like it just can't happen yeah yeah like lemon grape
we could if we can figure out the ratio we could revolutionize the fruit industry
by unleashing lemon grape do you think orange banana is something orange banana could be something that's kind of like it'd be in some sort of you think orange banana is something? Orange banana could be something.
That sounds like it'd be in some sort of tropical juice.
Orange banana is kind of like
what an orange Julius is, right?
I feel like orange banana only shows up
for the Avengers of juices.
You know, like where there's like
seven different fruits in a juice
when they do like the full mix.
There's an orange and a banana,
I feel like, on the roster there.
But you're never just going to see the two of them by themselves together you know what else you'll never see
together grape watermelon i think grape is a hard one to combine with other food yeah i think you
might be right we gotta write these down lemon is so strong and grape is so strong if you can
figure out how to make them work together i bet you could you could fucking disrupt the whole
food industry great sounds like there's not a lot of oh wow i'm all about grape coconut right you think grape
might be difficult to work with it sounds like they're not collabing with a lot of the other
fruits i think that grape is such a it's oh see like gracie just dropped a picture watermelon
grape juice and that i've never that is crazy i bet that is crazy uh i bet it's so good but i
guess you could probably do i'm trying to think of like what would go with grape in general like
pear would probably do oh would go well with grape um grape pear that's interesting yeah yeah
great mango yeah like like lemon grape is such a you know you could call grape mango. Yeah, like lemon grape is such a... You could call it grape mango.
You could call it grango.
You could.
You know what?
You could call it grango.
Or mango.
No, grango is...
You nailed it the first time.
I need to get the popsicles out again.
Yeah.
I think that there might be some lab work
that could be done in the next couple weeks.
Amongst all of us, really, if we wanted to.
Anybody that was so inspired
to start thinking about combining
non-traditional fruit flavors
into ways that might work with us.
Work for us.
I mean, Gavin has the glove.
I got some spaghetti to work with.
This sounds like a perfect lab task
for you to take on, Jack.
I'll take it on by myself.
That's fine.
I won't be offended
if anybody has an idea
and tries it out.
I like that you have
a monthly lab report.
Notes from the lab.
Face sciences.
Yeah.
All right, well, I'll get on that.
Let me write myself a note.
Dragon fruit rarely makes it
into the flavors, does it?
It's true.
Even though it's Andrew's pick.
It's the name of dragon fruit and grape.
You know, I'd never had dragon fruit until recently.
I had it in a drink.
Delicious in a drink.
Don't know by itself.
Had a real crunch to it, though, that I appreciated.
Did you put the dragon fruit in?
No, like I ordered a drink that had it, and it was chunks of dragon fruit in no like i ordered a drink that had it and it was chunks of dragon fruit in
jesus and i just got to send myself the best email of my life it just the subject line is just
combine fruits in the lab why'd you send us an email that's how i send myself notes yeah you
can use notes uh i do notes for like show notes and stuff but i want to
like give myself a to-do thing i email it to myself and then i keep it bold and i'm gonna
like my to-do list essentially anything that's bold that i need to do you don't email yourself
gavin i email myself uh documents sometimes if google drive's been a piece of shit and discord
doesn't work that's fair but i don't talk to myself on email i can't believe you
can't make discord work you suck yeah i'm posting dongs left and right why don't you know what bobas
are different oh um gavin do you have any notes for this uh for our episode recordings what do
you mean like do i have anything i thought i thought that you had notes that you wanted to
get to for our for the show for this show you said that like two episodes ago right
yeah but that was the lab stuff i think it was the lab i thought it was lab stuff but i thought
he had vegas stuff i thought he had more notes that's why i asked i was trying to team i was
trying to team up hey that's my mistake i'm sorry won't happen again is there any vegas stuff that
you didn't cover gav um? Um, Jeff's farts.
I've got, no, I think I've got everything on there.
Oh, I don't like, um, I don't like the new thing on planes where you can put your phone in the seat in front of you.
That's like the standard now instead of having screens
because the freaking idiot behind me leaves it on vibrate
and he's getting so many messages.
It's vibrating my freaking head
and it's not a problem. I ever saw coming
We need like a dampened seat because my freaking heads rattling no, I'm with you now
I didn't understand that that dude so instead of having pre-built screens. They expect you to clip your phone in well
I think that's fine. I mean that cuts down on weight. I guess nobody's watching those screens anymore anyway
Everyone's watching shit on their iPad. I'm a big screen guy. No, I I need screen now
They're gone dude. They're out of play just to the Wi-Fi. It's on your no you don't miss them
You won't miss it. I promise no I will I will miss them
No, it's better
It's better on your phone because that way um you know if it's on your little table when you eat crumbs go all over your phone
We're trying to watch Ozark
Wait that's supposed to make me feel better about this
i just had a built-in screen taken away from me you said don't worry crumbs will fall on your new
one are you saying why why sometimes it's so but i wasn't doing that no but i didn't do that but i
didn't do that to begin with i would just not i just look out the window i'm gonna be a window
guy yeah watch out for turkey sandwiches that's all i'm saying you're gonna just look at the window i'm gonna be a window guy yeah watch out for turkey sandwiches
that's all i'm saying you're gonna just look out the window yeah as i said you're gonna
some people just stare at the freaking flight map for the whole flight there's so many people
who do that have you noticed that they literally just stare and watch the plane fly over the land
yeah by the way that that's a level of boring that we're not going to get to.
Oh, no, I'm already there.
Andrew, you're not there.
I dabble in the plane map.
I don't mind the plane map.
You check in with the plane map, but you're not going to sit there and watch it for the entire film.
Well, you're not going to watch it at all because you'd have to navigate to it on your phone and you won't do that.
Well, no.
Yeah, now it's gone.
The plane map might as well have never existed in my life if I have to pull it up on a phone to be able to see it i'm really good at
just sitting somewhere and turning my brain off and just just imagining rain yeah thinking about
the rain thinking about uh all sorts of things it's not too silent for you you don't have to
like fill the air no i i don't i i can live in that you and i would be great in an uber ride it's complete silence well it sounded like we were
once you got pissed off no we we've never been in an uber ride that's a lie dude watching how
hard it was caleb drove us what are you talking about you don't even remember it watching how
hard it was for you to sit with the silence earlier when Gavin was testing it,
I think you're the Uber driver that doesn't stop talking.
No.
No, I would be the Uber driver that never talked.
This is different.
There's different contexts, okay?
If we're doing a podcast, then yeah, I feel like I need to fill.
I think you'd be like, oh, they're in my car.
I want them to have a good time.
I want them to know that I'm a friendly Uber driver.
I want them to enjoy.
I know a lot about the area that we're in,
so we're going from point A to B.
I'll tell them some of the highlights on the route,
and then before you know it, you talk the whole time.
And they probably had a lovely time.
Yeah, no.
No, I wouldn't.
I'd be very quiet.
I'd be terrified if they initiated.
One of my non-Vegas notes was something
that I think we should get into.
You know how software is is like on the computers
and the computer is the hardware
and if you have like a device that
you update the firmware
I watched a video and I learned about
that they were like using
I don't know what they were doing. They had like
neurons. They were using like rat meat
to try
to try and like play Doom
or something. They were like a bunch of like brain matter or
something i don't know what it was but they were calling it wet wear and i was like oh we
face needs to get into wet wear somehow because i just love that that's so gross okay so well i i
like the idea of what where but you don't know what it is is the problem it's like to be a bunch of like goo like
cells that they had to feed that would sit on top of like a little circuit board and it would like
stimulate different neurons but it was like it was like like an interface that they had to put
food on oh because i think it was like rat goo or something well what i can't say definitively
is shocks will not be wet wear because okay you want to get wet and keep them warm dry uh we can
do wet wear yeah i think i think it's worth it's not what you're describing but like we could do
a thing called wet wear i don't want anything to do with rat goo
or rat brains
Andrew you don't think you can play
Doom with rat flesh
um
do I have to show my hands while doing it
you have to use long sticks
you have to show your hands wetware style
or is that I was thinking about that later Jeff You have to use long sticks. You have to show your hands wetware style.
Or is that you?
I was thinking about that later, Jeff.
You once told me that Gavin is always adding one more thing.
He's a great one more, like a one addition thing.
And that was a classic one more thing.
Absolutely.
You didn't see that coming?
I didn't see you doing a one more thing.
No, that's on me.
I feel like ideas are open to brainstorm it up until we're doing them
That shit you can always adapt
You can assist it feels the way you do it feels like that's been in the chamber the whole time
I'll be honest. Sometimes it was an assumption from the
Like of course you would film your head it's a funny stick well it's it's not but it's not a funny stick now it's just a little stick it's slightly it's a slightly larger funny it'll get
funny okay it's gonna get funny fast it well we'll see see how good i am how many that's another
how many different sticks is it? Nine.
Okay, so like nine inches.
Each one's an inch.
When does it get funny to you?
When might the camera come on?
I think... Well, I'm not...
Because it sounds like there's a funny window where it's big enough to be funny, but it's
not big enough that you have to use your chin and can't film it.
One sec.
Let me grab him.
Let me find him them i'll be honest
i think it's funny right now just trying to figure out when it's funny but whatever let me
pull this because you're asking the dinkledges guy i don't know
measurements very well saying them so i'm pulling out the sticks i'd say um i'd say this one is
when it gets funny i can't see it that's see it it would be really cool if you were filming your hands
while you did this that's all I'm saying
fuck I'd grab the smallest
ones that are in it what's the second
so the smallest ones is when it's funny
no they're just on a
controller on the other side of my desk
and I'd use them to measure how
when it got funny so I could say
the inch
they're not funny how when it got funny so I could say the inch. Let me reach.
Okay.
They're not funny.
They're just a tool of measurement to find fun.
Yes.
No, the one inch ones
are not funny.
I just want to point out
if you're at home
listening to this
and you're going,
fuck, I really want to see this.
So do we.
Yeah, welcome to Arnold.
Yeah, I didn't realize
when I stuffed them
into an envelope
it'd be the last time I'd ever see them.
Six inches.
Gets funny at six inches.
Six inches.
Are you serious? It's funny at least
at two. Yeah.
Okay, you can maybe sell me
at three. Alright, I'll take three.
I'll take between three and
eight inches.
Yeah. Well, you know what? It does get funny. I will admit that. I'll take between three and eight inches. Yeah.
Well, you know what?
It does get funny.
I will admit that.
I'll keep that point.
Thanks.
How benevolent of you.
Yeah.
So what works?
What's that?
Oh, man.
I will say we had a conversation at breakfast
that I kind of wanted to get your take on, Andrew.
Okay. When we were in Vegas. I think maybe Kent, my conversation at breakfast that I kind of wanted to get your take on, Andrew. Okay.
When we were in Vegas.
I think maybe Kent, my soon-to-be brother-in-law, brought this up.
But do you think you've ever been somebody's last straw?
I asked Eric about whether he'd been anyone's last straw.
Yeah, that was where it came from.
Oh, man.
Have I ever been?
Have I directly been?
Does it count if I'm in the group of people that was someone's last?
OK, but I didn't do it right.
Like, am I does disqualify?
I was in a bunch of me in the neighborhood.
Kids were riding our bikes and there was a guy that was like graveling his house, like
his front yard.
And one of the kids decided to use his pile of gravel as a ramp.
And so they drove up it and and then
like rode it back down and then we rode down the street a little bit and that was definitely that
man's last straw he did not enjoy it he had enough he grouped us all up and he screamed at us from
the top of his lungs and uh i just remember him yelling that he was gonna blast our ass with
a hose so hard it would shave it and i was just crying because i was like four and i didn't like
loud noises and this guy is screaming i just want to go home because i didn't i would never drive in
the guy's gravel pile but i was part of the group i was in the bike ride and you like your ass blasted yeah that was definitely that last draw my cousin uh once chased me around and i stood in
front of my grandparents back door because it was all windows and i'm like he's not gonna shoot me
if i stand in front of all the windows and then like the window went it was a wow he shot a rock
at me even though i was in front of
the windows and i heard my grandpa go like and i so i panicked i ran i just ran as far away from
the door as i could he yelled at my cousin and then he looked at me and it's the maddest i'd
ever seen him and i just said and i didn't do anything. And he yelled back, I know. But he was still just as that was his last straw.
So I don't know if I've ever been anyone's last straw, but I've certainly witnessed people on their last straw.
I'll have to think about that.
I'm sorry.
I don't have a better.
No, it's OK.
It's a it was a it was a just thrown at you, you know?
Yeah.
No, I don't. I don't think I have been anyone's last straw.
Gavin or Eric, do you guys think you've ever been someone's last straw?
I would think probably.
I just don't know the situation.
But I would assume just through me being myself, yeah, probably.
Yeah. Yeah.
Thanks.
No, I agree.
Dude, listen, I can't, I'm reasonably
certain that there could be a Facebook
group of people that I have been their
last straw. Like, just in the army
alone. Like, the five years that I was
in the army, there's probably a dozen people
I was their last straw.
I was, yeah., there's probably a dozen people I was their last straw. I was, yeah.
I would guess that Eric
caused me to walk away from the booth
a couple of times at conventions.
Oh, probably.
But it wasn't the final,
it was a, you know,
it was one of the straws,
but it wasn't the last one.
It was just like the final straw of that day.
And then I loaded up with new straws
for the next one.
Loaded up new straws.
I remember the time when I was in high school and my friend Shane and I would sit in his
roof and wait till the end of the day when the construction crews would leave.
I think I've told this story before.
They were building a neighborhood right behind his house and we would run out there at night
and take all the cinder blocks and build a wall leading in like at the road going into
the neighborhood.
So then the night security guard would have to drive in and then take the blocks down
and then throw them off on the side of the road so that he could do his uh
like do a security patrol and then after he would leave we would put him back up and then he would
have to come and tear him down and eventually he just stopped doing the security patrol
we did it to him for like two weeks and then that was he just gave up i i remember deciding that
a friendship was over because someone else was the last...
He did like someone that was the last straw.
He was like a...
My neighbor when I was growing up and he was really disgusting.
He just used to do really gross stuff.
And at one point he was eating a load of bourbon biscuits and he just put like two of them
in his mouth and he just kept chewing them and he wouldn't swallow it until it was just
a brown liquid and he started gar swallow it until it was just a brown liquid and
He started gargling with it
And I just immediately thought I'd still be friends with you anymore
And yet here we are
He also had there was a there was a type of crisp called a it's called skips which is like a prawn flavored
Crisp and he used to pour milk in the bag and eat them with a spoon.
And it was slop.
I think I think this guy is the reason why I hate soggy stuff, because I've watched like wet skips flop off his spoon back into the bag while he had a mouthful of gargled bourbons.
Horrible.
Nick's right.
That's the origin of your issue.
I think it is.
You've gotten to the bottom of it.
That's the origin of your issue.
I think it is.
You've gotten to the bottom of it.
Do you think if you could go find that guy and let him know how much that affected you,
you could reclaim wet bread?
I'm friends with him on Facebook.
You gotta tell him.
It's the only way you can ever eat French dip soup.
Or what is it called?
French onion soup.
That's it.
French onion.
Well, French dip is a thing that's true i just remembered that i was my grandma's last straw twice and it was both
both fair related occurrences one one was uh she took my cousins and i and my cousins were more
aligned with jeff i would say, and causing
mischief. And I was just trying to be good. But they were just monsters the entire trip.
And we had to go to Vancouver. So I get on a boat and then go across and they were just
fucking up everything the entire trip. And it was burning her out. And then on the way
on the way back on the ferry ride, there was a gift shop and i had money left over i didn't spend all my money when i was at the fair i'm like maybe i don't know seven um and i
was looking around the gift shop and they had a pocket knife they had a little pocket knife and i
bought it um and she viewed that as me buying a blade much like our pizza slicer and she was so
mad at me that i bought a knife on the boat and she just yelled
at all three of us nobody move and we weren't allowed to move or talk the rest of the trip
on the way back that was that that was definitely her last straw real life on pause she did yeah
she put real life apart and it was like a thing of like do i give back the pocket knife like it was it was a whole thing um and then
another time after that she didn't bring them back it was my different cousin and i they were
they were banned she was never gonna go on a trip with them again so my other cousin who was who was
not as rambunctious and you know that ride that's like a ufo and it spins you and like you go up the
wall you're like the gravity or
whatever yeah the gravitron I did that like four times in a row and then I realized that the stamp
that was on my hand like it got removed in that process and that's how like you'd go on rides
but I was kind of done with the day and I pointed out like oh my stamp is gone and my grandma
interpreted that as like me wanting another stamp so I could go on rides and it's the middle of summer so it's super hot and we're walking
around and we go to the first place to get a stamp and they didn't have any and then we went to a
second booth across the park and their ink was out so then we had to go to a third booth across
the park and i finally got my hand restamped and she's like well what ride you want
to go on now and i said i don't want i'm good like i'm ready to go i don't want to go on anymore
and she just yelled like why did we do all that what was the point of any of that and i never
i was like i never said i wanted to i thought like i was doing this because i thought you wanted to
and that was that was that she was done she was. And that was that. She was done.
She was fed up.
That was the last time we went to the fair.
I went two years in a row.
Never again.
Speaking of what was the point of any of that and being done?
This seems like a great place to end episode 166.
And like Andrew's grandma, I'm sure you yourself are wondering what was the point of the last hour or so
of my life. I don't
know. I don't know. Maybe you'll come
and you'll tune in next week to find out.
We'll see. Can I ask one question
before we go? Please do. What?
Did y'all know that Oppenheimer made the
atomic bomb? Yeah. Before
the movie came out? How can I save
my little boy from Oppenheimer's deadly toy?
I don't even know
what that is. I'm sorry for asking
that question. End the episode. We should have had
a 30 second stop. I agree.
100%.
Bye.
I didn't know.
