If you have a crush on a cute barista
Want to know what to do to meet her
Accidentally killed your neighbor's dog
Want to know how to pick up chicks while on a jog
If I were you, want to know what I'd do
I'd email these two coy and funny dudes
If I were you, if I were you
If I were you, if I were you
Starts now
If I were you, if I were you
Yeah sure, that leads to marriage
How it works is that you're both
I know how it works
I do, of course I know how it works
It's like you're sucking your own dick
No
Huh?
Cause you're, it's kinda like you're using somebody else's body as a proxy
So it's like, oh I get to go down on a girl while she's blowing me
And how is that like sucking your own dick?
Cause think about it
No
You're basically, you're using the other human as a puppet
No you're not
Yeah you are
You're, you're controlled, like you're basically saying to this human
You do what I'm doing
Imagine if it's two guys sucking each other's dicks
Then it's like you're sucking your own dick
Okay, I'm taking one degree to the right
One degree to the right is removing a penis
No, no, no, no, that is a huge
It's replacing
I am licking a vagina
That's pretty much the opposite of sucking a penis
It's the, but it's the opposite in a way that it's also very similar
It's kinda like how
It's oral sex, but the event diagrams do not overlap
They overlap, they're on top of each other
It's two circles
They kiss, they don't overlap
It's 69
Actually that, there's a zero and there's a two O's in 69
I was gonna say, when you said it's the opposite it's not the same
It's kinda like
Let me think of a good metaphor
It's like
You're like, oh, baseball's the opposite of basketball
Or it's like, okay, they're two different sports, but they're, they are still sports
So the fact that something is your opposite
Means it's also very related
A yin and a yang
Yeah, so it's not like baseball's the opposite of basketball
It's like basketball's the opposite of
Dignity
See, there's so far, that's truly the opposite
Or if you wanna talk about opposites, opposites are things that aren't necessarily the exact different
They are still part of the same universe
Hey, this is if I were you
You said, you said licking of a vagina was like sucking a dick
Yes, I really think so
You are gay
I'm sorry
It's both oral sex
That's it
Yes, that's it
So if something is the opposite of something, they're actually very similar
That's the cool thing that I said so far
And so far you haven't said something cool
Calling you gay was pretty cool
This is if I were you
The only advice podcast on the entire internet hosted by me
And me
My name's Amir
My name's Josh
Josh R
We just to show you how quick this turnaround is
The clippers have been eliminated from the NBA playoffs
Yes
This show will be online four hours after that
That is correct
We procrastinated
But still it's kind of a cool fresh feeling
Right
What you're listening to happens so quickly, so soon
Yeah, this is us on Sunday afternoon and you're listening to
You know, this is maybe you on Monday morning
Oh, but what if some people are listening to it in two years from now
Yeah, then people will hear this after one of us dies
Really?
Yeah, yeah, probably one person
What's soon but for before?
Huh?
What's soon but for before?
I don't think I still don't get it
What's the word soon for stuff that happened previous?
Oh, I see
Like earlier
Just now
No, it's not earlier
Just earlier as any time before
I'm talking about
Like, you know, like we'll shoot, we'll record this and it'll be online soon
So it's like right before we recorded it, we recorded it not soon
But soon but in a different direction
I swear to God, I'm not high
Yes, don't
What's soon but for before?
Soon means quickly in the future
I want to know what it means
Like recently?
Yeah, yes, we recorded this recently
That's good
I do feel high
I'm not
I did have one edible
And a cat
Amen, amen
What's soon?
I was at an eight when I ate that
This is an advice podcast
Someone blowing you is a puppet
Don't you get that? It's an avatar
They are a ventriloquist of you
It's like a virtual reality
Let's say I have this prosthetic dummy
And whatever I do to it, it does to me
This is like that 70s show came spinning around
It just keeps landing on you
I'm playing Spin the Bottle and it only lands on me
Let's say you have this puppet
Like in the future
It's really hard for me to just do it
You have a long distance girlfriend
Let's say in the future
The year is 2038
Richard Nixon, Junior, Junior
Your eyes are so red
Instead of being in the same room as someone
You are in the room with a giant plastic female figure
And your girlfriend is controlling it in a chamber
I see
So when she moves, the avatar moves
So she's blowing this figure
And that figure is blowing you
69ing is that
Then is it cheating?
My girlfriend cheated on me with a dildo
Yeah, exactly
If the dildo is being remotely controlled by a guy
Is that cheating?
Would be an example of a question we would answer
On this advice podcast
People will email us
If I were to show at gmail.com
And we do our best to read these emails
Offer our advice
We are experts in what following fields
Physics, chemistry
Jake has a PhD, JD MBA from
The MBA
From the MBA
So he's a doctor, lawyer, businessman
I'm a Doc Rivers of myself
And I am a catwalker
Which is a new profession that I invented
So I'm an inventor
I'm a wordsmith
And I'm a more or less
You teach cats how to catwalk
What?
You teach cats how to catwalk
How to catwalk
How to catwalk
We are high, we're tripping on mushrooms
So let's start reading these emails
And giving our advice
Giving our two cents
That would have been a good alternate name for the website
Oh yeah, our two cents
Our two cents
Welcome to our two cents
I'm Amos
That's my two cents
And I'm Josh
Alright, let's start with a good one
Cool
We need
A guy's name
Let's do RIP
Clippers
Blake Griffin
Right
So I was having a little party at my house
And me and my girlfriend and two other people
Were sitting in a room
While another group of friends
Were in another room playing truth or dare
I was unaware they were playing truth or dare
So I was weirded out
When a girl from the other room
Barged into my room
And licked my girlfriend
From her forehead to her chin
And my girlfriend's brother
Watched the whole thing
Should I be mad at her?
I'm a jealous dude
Clearly
The first thing that popped out to me
About this question
Licking
Like I can see licking from chin to forehead
How do you lick from forehead to chin?
You have to use the bottom of your tongue
You have to use the bottom of your tongue
Well maybe she was like sitting down
And this girl was standing up
So she just kind of went like
Oh upside down
Yeah I don't know it still seems weird
I feel like it's more likely that he
Wrote it poorly
Oh he accidentally wrote it incorrectly
Cause I also am not 100% sure who he's mad at
Well he wants to know if he should be mad
At the girl or the girlfriend
I guess not really the girlfriend
Griffin didn't do anything
Should I be mad at the girl that did it?
Should I be mad at someone?
Yeah
For licking
Like if a guy did it
You'd be mad
If a guy walked into a room and licked your girlfriend
Yeah
But if a girl did it
Less mad it seems
Yeah
I guess I feel like
What if it was a gay girl
I still wouldn't be that mad
I'd be actually hot by it
It would actually heat me
It would turn to what?
It would heat me
It would turn me on
Okay when you're arousing
What do you feel?
I feel a warm heat
And a cold cool
An orange sphere that pulsates
Right
From forehead to chin
You are a sex symbol Blumenfeld
How so?
You're a Madonna of our generation
Would you be jealous of a girl
Or would you be angry
If a girl did that to your girl?
I don't think so
I don't
And like sex wouldn't even be involved
It's just like sort of non-threatening
Yeah
I guess cause like I would know that my girlfriend
I know that she would
Is heterosexual
So if she was licked by a woman
It wouldn't necessarily be like a threat
To our relationship in any way
Whereas if a guy licked her
That's kind of like an assault a little bit
Yeah
Then I think you'd have to be like
I guess before I like really really
Had a strong opinion
I'd check in with my girlfriend
And say
How do you feel about that?
Do you feel violated?
Was that really fucked up?
Or was it just like
Hey we're all drunk in a party
That was weird
Is it entirely related to her?
Like if she's fine with it
Then you're fine with it
Or is there a situation where something happens to your girlfriend
And she's fine with it and you're not?
I mean there probably is cause I'm a
We're all human beings floating around
This crazy, crazy son of ours
Oh
Do you know what I mean?
We're on a rock baby
We are a shooting star
We are a shooting star
The sun
The moon
It's just crazy
I'm thinking
Just knowing that the world is round
Here I'm sitting on
Standing on the ground
Am I right side up
Or upside down
That's why he doesn't know
Dave has no fucking clue
He's upside down
That's why he's licking her from
Chin to forehead
He's right side up
That's what that goddamn song's about
This this this this
This episode
This episode
This party happening
Was Dave Matthews'
Formative party that he was at
If you have to ask if you should be mad
Then you're not mad
Like you can't say
Should I be mad?
I am jealous
But then he also already is mad
Cause he's like
I'm kind of a jealous dude
I'm realizing because I'm very pissed off at this
Yeah
He like also it seems like it's
It's a truth or dare game
I don't know
I wouldn't be mad
The weirdest part is
It came after a truth
Really?
Yeah
So she said truth or dare
And then the guy said truth
Or a girl said truth
Do you want to lick anyone in another room?
And she said oh hell yeah
Yeah watch this
Do you really?
Yes I do so bad
That this is about to happen
Yeah
That's how honest I am
We should play truth or dare more
I haven't played
I don't know if I've ever played
Just me and you?
Yeah
It seems like a good party game
But you never played as an adult
That's true
You never played truth or dare
You never played spin the bottle
Yeah
Let's have like a teenager party
Oh that's a good theme for a party
Right we play seven minutes in heaven
But you know where we can play it
When my parents go out of town
We can have it at my parents house
That way it's like
We're having a teenager party
That I never threw
Because I was so anti-social
That's a pretty fun idea
And my parents house is cool
It has a pool
Yeah
So I just have to
And we'll only invite teenagers over
Exactly so like 14, 15, 16 year old woman
Yeah
And then we'll play games with them
So like one of the games
Sirens outside
Fast
That was so fast
That's real
I fucking played mailbox baseball earlier
Really?
Yeah
I put a cherry bomb
In a toilet
In a fucking toilet
Yeah
The principal's fucking must have got me
Or some shit
I slashed the tires on the principal's Mustang
The Dean
Did you ever play spin the bottle?
I don't know if I ever did
Yeah I did
And it works
You just get to kiss
Yeah
I played some serious spin the bottle
Making out?
I played spin the bottle where like
Elevated to
Basically
69
In heaven
Which is what?
69ing
In a closet
What is seven minutes?
That's you go into a closet and change clothes
Seven minutes is
In heaven is just like
You go into a closet
And they shut the door
And you have to stay in there for seven minutes
And it
You don't
No one ever
Talks about what happened
Oh
It's like
You can sit there and talk
You can make out
You can do whatever
You know
Seven minutes
Even hearing the rules gets me like
What would I do in a closet?
The girl
When you hear the rules of seven minutes
In heaven
You're like
I'm like so in my head
Really
When I hear that
I'm like
Fuck yeah
I would fuck them
You would do that?
Not that it's a youngster
Yeah
I guess not as like a 13 year old
No
Yeah
I would probably
Just go for it
I don't think anybody was having sex
But yeah
I would finger somebody
Jesus man
Where did I go wrong?
I lost the phone
You're doing it now
You're peaking now
Yeah
But I really want to be a cool teen again
In fact
You would rather get hand jobs than just
Have a nice house and have sex
Yeah
Yeah I think so
I think I want a hand job again
Give me that leather jacket
I'm gonna go back to my high school
Go back to high school
Like it's not what you think officers
I just am trying to get a hand job
I get beat up by a 16 year old bully
You jerk him off
It worked
It finally worked
That's me melting
So
Should I be mad?
Why don't you see if your girlfriend is mad
If your girlfriend is mad
Then you could be mad
This one is sort of a gray area
Where it would be a little weird
If your girlfriend laughed it off
It took this guy and fucking slammed him into a wall
Who dared her to do it?
I'm not mad at her
I'm mad at everybody in this room
Who dared her?
You?
I guess I dared her
Why?
Oh
Why I ought to
Dare me to kick his ass
Alright
That's it
I'm a jealous dude
It's as if he can't
It's like he's saying his height
You recognize that about yourself
Try to change
Yeah
I'm a jealous
He's just saying like
I'm six feet tall
Like I can't do anything about it
I'm a jealous
I'm mad
I get mad at easily
Oftentimes I am greedy and angry
So should I be mad in this case as well?
Things put me off
Yeah
I'm ill at ease
And often uncomfortable in a negative way
So should I hit him?
I find myself having stress and anxiety
More often than not
Related to things I can't control
For example a licking
Forehead to chin
And let us know if that actually happened
The forehead to chin thing
Find that hard to believe
Alright
Oh
Speaking of cool teens
This actually blends right perfectly
Into our next question
We need another boys name
Chris Paul
Chris Paul
CP3 himself writes
My neighbors are paying me to pet sit
For them while they go watch their son
Get married
But the weird part is
They told me I have to sleep at their house
While they're gone
Because their dogs aren't used to
Being alone at night
They understand that this is weird
And compensated me for such a strange request
By telling me that
If I so choose
I can invite some people over
That's right
Vacant house, hormonal teen
It seems like the premise
For a really bad oranchic comedy
I feel like I have to take advantage of the situation
But I'm not that kind of person
None of my friends
Nor myself have ever been drunk before
Or smoked pot
Or even have access to those kinds of things
If I were to ask them
To get some alcohol
And meet me at my neighbor's house
They'd likely make fun of me
I have no intentions of trashing this house
Or anything
I'm just curious as to what being intoxicated feels like
And I think that this is the most perfect
And safe environment to do so
So what do I do?
Get drunk alone?
Or get some friends?
Please, I need to know
P.S. I'm 17 going on 18
So, don't drink
Not allowed
Illegal
Don't want you to drink
That being said
You're such a loser
That your friends think it's cool to not drink
Oh my god
That's a problem
Even me, a loser, had friends that drank
I mean, who are you hanging out with, ya dork?
It is funny
What a weird reverse problem
He's living in a universe
I have an open house to have a house party
But everyone will make fun of me
If I suggest we drink
It is funny to imagine him drinking alone
But that doesn't seem like a safe opportunity
Right
If you want to know what being intoxicated feels like
I don't think that getting drunk by yourself
Is that great of an indicator
Yeah, I don't even know if I've ever done that
Have you ever been drunk alone?
I've definitely been like
Besides at the end of the night when you go home
And you're alone and you're drunk
Right, yeah, of course
I think I've done things like
I've never sat at home alone
Maybe I have once or twice
Not to get fucked up though
Like, I'll say
I have a whiskey at the end of the night
Yeah
I guess, but you've sort of been there when I do that
I'm just drinking by myself and you're around me
That's the saddest thing I've ever heard
But you've never seen me fall down
I'm just like, we'll have a whiskey and be like
Oh, that's pretty good
You're there, but I'm alone
Actually, whenever I get drunk, I'm alone
If I'm in a bar filled with people
I'm actually always by myself
Because nobody else can be here
I'm never connected with a single human being
Am I still not alone if there's a group of people
I don't give a shit about
Constantly around me while I'm getting drunk?
Imagine the first time you've ever got drunk
You did it by yourself in a strange house
That's a bad way to do it
No, because I think part of that
Well, part of getting drunk in general is to do it with people
So you're all like on the same page
You only get on the same level
I remember the first time I got drunk was in college
I never drank in high school
Wow
And I got drunk at my friend's party
And he got drunk too
And it felt great because it's like, oh my god
I mean, he had already been drunk
But I was getting drunk for the first time
Was he aware of that?
Yeah, exactly
Were you like, I'm not going to drink
And then suddenly in college, you're like, alright, I guess I'll try it
What was your mindset going into college?
It was like, I don't want to have
It was like weed and drinking
Or the two things that I didn't do in high school
So I was like, I don't want to do the weed
Because that seems like more extreme
Like you can't even do that legally after you're 21
But I can see myself drinking alcohol
That seems easy
So I told my friend that
It's like freshman year
Yeah, freshman year
Couple weeks into school
Yeah, October 30th, 2001
It's a Halloween party
Close, Oprah's birthday party
Nice
He was like, alright, we'll do it
We'll get drunk
We go into my friend's co-op
And they had vodka orange juice for us
And that was the first drink I had
And I was drinking
I was like, you know what, I don't feel anything
And I remember once I started feeling drunk
I'm like, it's happening
And I called my brother and left him a voicemail
I was like, I think I'm drunk for the first time
I don't know, it's pretty fun
Face getting really red
You called your mom
Imagine drinking alcohol for the first time
What's your tolerance if you've never, ever had that poison before?
Yeah, she's
Zero
Right, it's crazy
Your blood must be confused
You never even touched a drop of alcohol?
I maybe had like a sip of wine as a child
But like, I never had a beer
Your dad used to take you out for wine a lot as a kid
Yeah
So like, after baseball games
Your dad would get you shit-faced
My dad, I can count on a million hands
The amounts of times he got me wine drunk
Before school
Wine drunk on the latest
Just playing slap the back
As he's dropping me off
Remember how early Carpool was?
It was like 6'15
Cold
So I wanted to think back on like
I had to get to the bus at 7.05
So early
And like, there were so many times where I'd missed it
Just like, by a little bit
Like, fuck, I missed the bus
And I'd go back inside and my mom or dad
Had to just drive me to school
Like, fuck you, you little
You didn't have Carpool, you had a bus?
Yeah, I had a bus
Yeah, I was straight Carpool
So like, older kids would drive me
Or like, kids' moms
We'd have a schedule
Right
Like, they'd like honk
And then you'd have to come out
That's great, yeah
I had the bus thing
So I knew if I missed the bus
Then I could like
Stay in the house for an extra 20 minutes
And watch Save by the Bell
So I would miss the bus on purpose
And then my mom or dad
Would have to drive me to school
Like a real fucking asshole
Sorry, mom
So
Wait, what was the first time you got drunk?
I think the first time I got drunk was
It was like in the summer
It was like 8th grade or something
You were 14
Yeah
I think it was before
I was 13
It was the summer of before 8
Oh my god, so young
Yeah
I was like playing video games
And not doing anything
Right, for the next
Well actually, it was probably
Around the same time
No
I mean, you were
When you were 13, it was
2000, or 1998
You got drunk three years before me
And I'm two years older
I was 13, it was the summer of 1999
Yeah
And I didn't get drunk for another two years
And I'm two and a half years older than you
Interesting, yeah
We used to get like
Me and my friends would sneak into my parents
Everyone's parents like liquor cabinets
And just take maybe an inch or two inches
Off of every single liquor
And replace it with water
Or just leave it
No, just take a sort of unnoticeable inch or two
But we would pour all of that liquor
Into one Gatorade bottle
So it would have like rum vodka, gin
And whiskey all in it
No, it was like Kahlua
Just like different proofs, everything
And I'd say
Trano, it didn't matter
Sometimes we were probably just taking
Margarita mix
Liquid dish soap
We would call it
Sprue
SHPR U with an umlaut, then E
We spelled it out
Shit brew, that's what it was
Oh, that makes sense
And then we would pass that around
Until we were drunk
And then just like wander around the neighborhood
This is at like 3pm
Oh, really?
Holy shit
You were getting day drunk
Yeah dude, it was danger
You had to do a Dave?
That was the best time of my fucking life
Do you know what's like to peak when you're 13?
Shit was amazing
I would get anything to be 13
And hammered at 3
Now at 3 you're just eating a salad
That's not okay
That's true
Where did we get to?
Oh yeah
Should he get drunk at this person's house?
Is it the safest opportunity to do so?
I think if you're worried about safe opportunities
To get drunk, you're already doing it wrong
Right
I guess it's not safe to do it at another person's house
Why is that safe?
Also, you don't really want to be the person
That convinces your friends to get drunk
I would just like keep on
Like it sounds like you're maybe ready to experiment
And everybody should be safe
And you shouldn't do it because you're not 21
Whatever
Thanks
Amir made the fart noise
But it seems like at the very least
You want everybody to be on board
You want all of your friends
It needs to be a communal
Yeah
That's how it's going to be the most fun
So maybe you start going after your friends
Who are the most weak-willed
Instead of going to the group of friends
And being like, hey, was she a drunk?
And everyone's like, no
You find that one person who's like
I'd be down and then it's like
Hey, the two of us want to do it
Maybe it's the other third friend
You just slowly recruit everybody
But also don't do it because you're not 21
So our advice is not to do it now
Or ever until you're 21
Unless you want to do it in college
In which case you shouldn't
Until you turn 21
Alright, let's take a break
And we'll come back with more questions

And said
We'll give you money to shoot this thing
Yeah
It's another network in the Turner family
I guess Turner owns TNT, TBS, True TV
And a bunch of other channels
So, True TV
We are back from the dead
Thank you to
At True TV
If you guys want to pass on
Thank you to them
That'll make us look
It really is
If you think about
I don't know how much anybody knows
But
Making a pilot for TV
Is very, very hard to do
Yes
It's impossible
Yeah
They get pitches all the time
And they don't choose very many
And if they choose you
You still have to write the script
Every single step is hard
Like even getting into the room
There is hard
Selling your ideas is hard
Writing the pilot
Which we got to do
That was like a huge
It was rare that that happened
It was a very fortunate thing
Yeah
These are all long shots
And
One of the longest shots of all
Is to basically have your script
Be
Not considered anymore
And then another network
Is like
You know what?
Because our fans were so supportive
Exactly
Because it's hard to predict
TV success
And one of the few things
You can go by
Is if people already have
A built-in fan base
Because a lot of shows come from
Relatively unknown people
And they can be just as funny
As our show
But the fact that nobody
Knows about that certain person
Puts them at a disadvantage
We're already famous
That's why our show
Is called already famous
It's called been famous, bitch
That means you're not famous anymore
Yeah
Whatever, man
What did you say?
Well, I'm not famous
The numbers of people that have tweeted
And just support us on our subreddit
And Facebook channel and Twitter
And all that stuff
Is a huge selling point for us
So if we have a script
That's just as funny as everyone else's
Hopefully
But then we also have this extra advantage
Then that pushes us through
It's basically like a rugby scrum
Yeah
We're in the middle
And we have these hundreds of thousands
Of fans that sort of force us
You shove us forward
You did us a real solid
Obviously, you haven't done enough yet
We don't have a TV show yet
Well, let's wait till we shoot the pilot
Now, actually, it's our...
I feel like we're passing the ball back and forth
Oh, fuck
So our fans just helped get us the pilot
Now we have to do a good job with the pilot
Oh, we have to shoot it good
Yeah, we have to shoot it good
We have to act it good
We have to edit it good
It has to be good
It has to be a good thing
And then we ask for help one more time
To convince TreyTV to green light it to series
That's right
And then we ask for help again
Sorry, then we do work again
Then we make it, which would be amazing
And then we ask for help one more time
Getting our fans to watch it
So we can only get things up to a 50-50 decision
For people
We can only get us back on the fence
We're gonna do a job that'll get us on the fence
Get somebody considering it
But that is why we are splitting the revenue
With all of our fans
Oh, no, no, no, no
We should
We cannot
We should do that
This is not a publicly traded company
Everyone should
You cannot buy stock in me
You should get a rebate
You cannot get a rebate
I'll give you a coupon
For me, undies.com
But yes, every little bit is so helpful
So thanks guys for having...
A lot of you guys have tweeted at TrueTV already
And they've already taken notice
And unlike TBS, they've already started tweeting back at us
Being like how they feel the love
So it already feels like a much more fun, positive experience
And we haven't even started yet
I think we're gonna start shooting
Or working on this thing when we get back from Australia
Amazing
First we have to cast it
We have people in it that aren't us
But what the fuck are we doing right now?
We're recording this
Oh, okay
Yeah, then we have to shoot it
Why the fuck are we recording this thing?
Well, we have to cast it first
Okay, yeah, sure
And then we have to edit it
Well, then what the fuck are we wasting our damn time on this stupid podcast shit?
That's good too
Yeah, this continues to give us an outlet that we control the timeline of
It helps to be able to talk and upload it
And people are listening to it and enjoying it while they're waiting for the show to happen
100% you're correct
And then we have a final product that TrueTV has to deliberate
And if you guys can just help us out one last time
By borderline forcing yelling at them
We'll have a meet up for that
Yeah, yeah, it'll be a tweet up
You guys will be very well aware
So thank you
That's sort of the timeline we're thinking about right now
And thank you guys again for helping us get to this point
We couldn't have done it without you
Speaking of Australia
Shows are getting close to sold out
Melbourne's already sold out
Sydney has less than 100 tickets left
That's a 900 person show
That's amazing
That'll be our biggest podcast show ever
Yeah
Well, wasn't London around 900 as well?
I think London was like 800
Well, I mean if we sell out
This one will be bigger
And then there are tickets still available for Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth
Those tickets are still going fast
We're going to be there in
Well, I think three weeks
Insane
Very close
So if you're still considering it
Make it so
All the dates and all the ticket stuffs
All the links to what you need are on our website
IfIReviewShow.com
Correct
Anything else we should talk about?
Our newsletter you can sign up for
Before weekly updates from us
The Montreal show is already sold out
So you can't buy tickets to that anymore
Yeah, sorry
Yeah, I don't know
I guess that's it
Oh
You
You shot yourself yesterday
Oh, yeah
Well, there's no time
We talked about the newsletter and shit
I was just
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It wasn't even a little bit either
You thought you were on the toilet
And you were on a chair
I sat down Indian style on a chair
I said, how do you do do
And then I, yeah
I tuted and
A full log
A 21 inch log
Insane, it was a record breaker
Jesus Christ
That's not true, you guys
Unless it is and you didn't tell me about it
I didn't do that
Alright, let's get to one last question
Before we run out of time
Oh, here we go
One last guy's name
JJ Redick
Your boy
Who had a tough go of it today
He didn't do his best
When they needed him to
But you know
This is their second straight game seven
It's very tiring
They played 14 games
That's like the borderline
Three and a half series
In just two weeks
Yeah
Four weeks
They had a good run
JJ Redick writes
I'm a 22 year old kid
And me and my buddy are going on a trip to Denver
Next month
And I think he kind of already
Sewered me
We planned this trip
So that we fly in Thursday
So that there are three nights
And he talked about going out
Every single night
He's been there before
And he even met a Broncos cheerleader
She is a smoke
So he suggested
Maybe we do a double date one night
So I jokingly said yes
Thinking it would be another cheerleader friend
So today he texts me a pick of a dime
And a nickel
I'm pretty self-aware
And I don't think they'd set me up
With an ugly friend
But I don't know what to do
Because if we find another friend
It'll come off like
I look like the asshole, right?
And I can't really tell him
What to do on his vacation, can I?
But I don't want to just go out
By myself that night
So do I have to just battle
With the husky one?
Thanks
Y'all rock
You don't
Love JJ Redick
He wanted a hottie
And when he sends in the photo
Everything he's saying is correct
But he's like, right?
I can't just ditch this friend, can I?
Would it be fine?
I'm going to
This is sort of the problem with getting set up
Yeah, it's never good
It's how often...
The huge major issue
I don't even know what this person looks like
Any of these people look like
But I think most humans are unattractive
Right, yeah, I've heard this theory
You think there's no one hot in all the world?
No, I do
I think it's just rare
I think it's not like
Oh, you know, there's a 50% mark
And half the people are hot
And half the people are ugly
No, I think 80% to 90% of people are not good looking
You most of all
Yes, I'm the ugliest one
And then there are 10% of attractive people
10% of people are average
And 80 to 90% are poor
Unfortunately, it is not a non-normal distribution
You reached a point where
I say I want to set you up with someone
And it sounds very exciting
But nine times out of ten
They won't be attractive
Well, the problem is that people's expectations
When they're going to get set up
Are basically never ever met
Yeah
Because you immediately think your future wife
Or your future husband
And then you see somebody that's not that
And you're like, oh, no
But it doesn't matter
This is only one night in...
Yeah, this is one night of vacation
It's not like you're...
It's more dangerous to get set up in your hometown
Like if somebody here, if your mom was like
Hey, I want to set you up with my friend's daughter
Right
That's a little dangerous
But where are they going?
Denver
Yeah, dude, Denver
Just enjoy it
That whole town's a fuckfest
And maybe she's a cool chick
You don't know that yet
You don't know until you meet her
And you haven't met her yet
But going back to what I was saying
About how most people are ugly
It's not only that most people are ugly
Which they are
It's also uninteresting
No, most people are more interesting
Than they are attractive
I wouldn't say that
But when people hear stories
About an anonymous person, guy or girl
You feel in your head an attractive person
So I'm like, oh, my friend met this girl yesterday
And they went home and had sex three times
And you're already jealous
Now that's so hot
She's probably so hot
But odds are, it was probably, like I said
To very ugly people
Having ugly sex and talking about mundane things
You are sitting at a cheap dining room table
With a microphone attached to a computer
You nerd, hater
To be clear, I don't consider myself
As part of the 10%
Of course you don't
Of course I don't
I, too, am an ugly
You have to be ugly
To be a critic like this
I'm not sitting on an ivory throne
I'm in the ugly masses with me
I'm in the muck with my people
I'm in the muck with the mire
I have the opposite problem, though
I think everybody's attractive
Even the people who are not
Almost especially them
So it's almost like a subjective thing
It's what do you consider attractive
There are some people like
Oh, I wouldn't go out with that person
Like, you really, you're saving yourself
For like, quote unquote, the cream of the crop
The top one to two percent
Like, if someone's not a freak of nature model
You're like, oh, I'm not interested in her
She's just sort of average looking
Yeah, what a waste that would be
Yeah, but then there are people whose bar is so low
They're like, oh, anybody can be attractive
Which I guess that's better than the other way around, right?
I don't know
My bar doesn't even exist
I don't have a bar
You have the floor
Yeah, and if you're above it
As in you're living and breathing
Come on in
I want to fuck you
The water is warm
I don't, I think having no bar
Sometimes gets you in trouble
Because then there are people that are like
Do have the bar and they're like, oh
I don't want to, like, hook up with you
You don't even have any standards
Yeah
You'll hook up with anybody
Right
Uh-oh
Yeah
Oops, I will
Yeah
What do I do now?
I guess for this person
The advice is the same
Go for it
It's one exciting night
Double dates are fun
Yes, they are
You might as well just do this
Do you know the idea of, like, a grenade
Like taking one for the team?
Oh, yeah
Have you ever, well, that's when you
Like to hook up with a friend of a person
To help out your friend
I think that term is so dumb
Because you never have to do that
You can, like, keep someone entered
He can go on a double date
Talk to this girl
Get her to like him
Do everything
And then, like, everybody goes home to fuck
You don't have to do that part
So the part where you're like
Yeah, I fuck this girl for you
Yeah
You know you didn't
Yeah, that's true
You got in a car
Got into your house
Went into your room
Shut the door
And whatever
You could have done anything
You could have not had sex
Right
You could have pulled the plug at any point
I mean, if I'm going to talk to someone for an hour
I might as well go home and bang
So you didn't
No one falls on a grenade
You're like, you...
You're holding on to it
For longer than you need to
I think that's what it is
You take the grenade and you're holding it
And then you go home alone
And you pull the plane
And throw it against the wall
Yeah, it's a suicide
You did nothing noble
That's how good it feels to
Your friend is so far from the grenade at that point
So what would you say?
I think go for it, yeah, have fun
Have fun
It's Denver for crying out loud
And it's only one night
Who knows what'll happen the next day
Also, that's like four people going out
Anything can happen
There's no reason that's...
There's nothing saying like
You have to be with this girl all night
This girl is...
It's not an arranged marriage
This girl might surprise you
And you know what, JJ
You might be unattractive
You probably are
So maybe you should start
Exploring people who you consider nickels
Again, I don't know what this person looks like
Right, because you are...
You're a Chuck E. Cheese token
Absolutely
You're nothing, you are worthless
You are a ticket
You are a roll of tickets
And you don't buy anything
Except a really small kush ball
At the very least, a rubber semi-sphere
That you turn inside out
Put on your finger and it pops
Pop
Yeah, and pop goes your weasel, JJ Redick
You are a weasel
All right, that's it
Now that I've called 90% of humans ugly
I think I've gotten that off my chest
You finally made your point
That's why we started a podcast
Just to let people know that
All right, if you have your own questions
Or theme song submissions
Send them to IfIWereYouShow at gmail.com
We also need thumbnail submissions
Every time we post our episodes on Facebook
We use an original piece of artwork
Made by you guys
Ideally at a 600 by 315 resolution
But we'll take what we can get
The opening theme song was by Sarah and Louis
Maybe Louie, who made a video crocheting me and Jake
Very cute, very nice
Do check out that video
And this closing theme song is by Michael Gray
Jake, do you want to take us out
By leading us in a prayer?
You can say no
Oh, all right, yeah, no
All right, here we go, Michael Gray
Actually, you know what, Jesus?
Oh, never mind
I'm near and I pinch
And some questions is a cinch
If I were you, I can show
Stars now
You
