The McElroy brothers are not experts, and their advice should never be followed.
Travis insists he's a sexpert, but if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it.
Also, this show isn't for kids, which I mentioned only so the babies out there
will know how cool they are for listening. What's up, you cool baby?
It's a new craze
And the girls, do you want it? Just say, hey, I want it
Just say, hey, I want it
Beep beep, all aboard, money car
Why, the car is so small, we can't fit, we can't fit more than like three people in a car
As the trolley pulling into the station, it's made of money
How about this, I like this, I like this analogy better
Ticket please, because you've been riding our comedy train for three fucking years
And if you don't hand me that ticket, we're gonna throw you off, we'll ban your IP
Hey, it's me, the Piper, what's up?
Hey, Piper's here, it's me, Piper Paribot, time to pay for your favorite comedy podcast
Thanks, Billy Piper, sincerely, celebrity endorser, Billy Piper
This is Billy Maze here for a new product that you've been using for three years
I'm come back from the dead, I'm a spectral form now to tell you you've been listening to this podcast for three years
Time to chunk up the change, is that it?
Time to chunk up the change with my brother, my brother, me, Special Pledge Drive
Podcast, it's time to pay the Piper, we got a big show for you today, we bet
As we record it, I'm sure its size will be revealed to us
It will be big, do you guys want to say anything on the podcast?
Guys, thank you so much for your support
Because I'm assuming that you heard on Twitter that it was max fun drive time and you immediately clicked the link
And you immediately just dropped you just immediately junked us right there right there on the spot
You plumped it down a big one and I and I also appreciate you. I assume
Choosing mbmbam as your favorite podcast on the website
Hobbes
And tweeting about it and telling all your friends
That there should be a shame to themselves for not doing the same
We just we just jumped right into it. Look the max fun drive if you are a new listener
This is our third go-round with the drive with the pleasure. It's a two-week long
E event
That our parent company you could just say event
E event that our parent company sets up is a fundraiser
You can help support us and and other amazing shows on the max fun network
We do extra the super length episodes. We have bonus content. We have pledge gifts
We're gonna get to all that and more, but it's a special time. It's a special time to be part of the max fun family
that boy griffin you said a mouthful
um
and
This year is like none other we've got a ton of great pledge gifts to tell you about but there's gonna be time for all that
First let's just get into the advice. I'm your oldest brother Justin McElroy. I'm your middleest brother Travis McElroy
I'm your sweet baby griffin McElroy to this week's show. I'm gonna say all the syllables wrong
Let's get the first kuyo yo es yo
I'm 26 I have a degree in animation
But I decided a year ago that it just wasn't what I wanted to do
I've begun a track for computer science programming
but thoughts of
My never ever nearing death have had me thinking of other ways to spend the remaining days on this sweet earth
I've always wanted to be a pilot
specifically flying helicopters
But training is expensive and the career path takes quite some time to move up
Should I go even further into that to taste my dream?
Or should I follow the money and spend the rest of my days in a cubicle?
That's from feeling shackled in Chicago
I I am in no way being flippant
What jobs are there for a helicopter pilot?
Yeah, okay. There's hospital guy. Uh-huh. Oh, yeah
You could work for like park rangers for like when fucking idiot Aaron Ralston's out there get pinned
You could go with uh
News chopper. That's a good thing right sure for guys one
Uh, another one is uh army man army guy army man army man
tourist guy
Oh, yeah tourist guy like that would probably be the sweetest
Like most lending itself to a usa
Action drama our action comedy drama in the vein of sycoburn notice
Kevin Costner both of those by the way just got picked up by the escrow network pretty cool network. You got going on there
What was that fucking movie with ash ash con ash and kutcher
Sorry, it was ash kutch
And it had kevin costner and they were people in helicopter and then people would be drowning in the ocean and they would get them
10 companies dive buddies dive buddies with ash ash and kutcher
Um, you could be one of him. So yeah, it doesn't seem like there are a lot of career ops
It seems like like a lot of people would want to do that
It seems like one of those jobs that maybe you don't get paid
Basically anything because everyone's like, yeah, you get to be in a helicopter all day
That's my greatest reward. Oh fucking you can be man. I bet you bachelor employees
So many people. Oh my god. Yeah. What if you started your own like limousine style helicopter business?
That's probably not legal is it? I will take you to prom the helicopter business
Does your high school have a landing pad? No, fuck it. We'll improvise
How are you? How are you at halos? How are you at high altitude?
landing
If you don't capitalize on these opportunities you are gonna have these unbroken legs
I think that you should as far as your actual question
I can't I mean
We usually say like follow your bliss, but it sounds like you're doing that too much
If you need to pick something that's your bliss and just chase that this bliss sounds fucking dope though
It does here. Is it is it something you can do like like uh pilot lessons where you could like be an amateur
Helicopter pilot, but maybe that's not like your career path
But like you have a license to do it. You could do it if you wanted to but it's not your day job
Is that crazy is that a thing you think you're talking about recreate? It's not like fucking like pottery
It's not like you build an attachment in your garage
You can do that as a pilot you can go to like a small airport and like get your pilot's license
Even if you're not like a commercial airline pilot. Hold on. Hold on. That's something you can do
Yeah
Hey, uh guys, I've had fun doing this podcast, but I just got a new hobby
Peace I got a hobby in this in the fucking clouds now
Uh-huh. Well, so you're saying he should be a computer scientist who as a hobby
Helicopters. Yeah, I think that could eat up a lot of his
Oh, it's not cheap
You gotta you gotta feed and house the helicopter, which is already expensive
And you never own your own helicopter
You gotta lease it
Yeah, if you don't take good care of your helicopter the helicopter social services will come by and be like oh
Come here little buddy. What did he do to you?
What have they been feeding you?
I've seen helicopter cops houston and it is some messed up shit down there. I was thinking of cattle
I got helicopter's confused with cattle again
It sounds like helicopter pilot sounds like fun, but it doesn't really sound like a career that you want to do
It sounds like you just want to kind of fly helicopter, which is also fine
but
I don't think that you should bail on the
I don't you don't have to make it your career. You can just be a guy that also flies helicopter
I have an idea a safer plot
What if you were a dude who did the computer science and programming for helicopters?
Okay, okay, what if you worked?
But like what if you worked for an aerospace company that made helicopters? Holy shit?
You program the artificial intelligence
Of the air wolf helicopter. I need writer two night writer sky rider cloud writer
Oh, there it is
It's called. It's my new show. It's called air wolf two night writer colon sky rider
comma cloud rider and it stars a ghost writer who's who's a computer scientist that programs an ai for a
Helicopter and it also makes a cartoon about the helicopter that he draws and he's a billionaire
He's a billionaire. He's so happy with all kinds of people all the time
So look out for like keep it locked to upn keep it on the squire channel
Can we get can we put some tits on that helicopter?
Done
I got another question for you guys. I'm taking talking fuck
I'm talking to my friend who is a lady and she came to me feeling bummed out
I tried to cheer her up just by being positive and making her laugh
And although she did laugh she seemed slightly annoyed for a second. Is there a certain?
Chemistry between people who are feeling depressed and those who are trying to cheer them up that creates bad tension
Or could I be experiencing a taste of shot and froze?
It's from jimmy. I just shot him for a man. I long
For a lifestyle where I can think this much about what other people feel
This seems like you're a really a considerate person and I wish I had that inclination
You're saying you fucking witnessed a micro expression on this person's face
You need to get in the police interrogation biz like yeah, he smiled but his eyes
For a millisecond we're so angry and that's how I knew he was lying about the treasure
Hey guys side note because it just occurred to me. Do you think in countries like england where bum
You know they say bum for but the word bummed out means something like completely different. Oh my god
I mean to hump their butt so hard that inside of their butt comes to be the outside of their butt
She was really bummed out. She was really she was bummed out so hard that she died
Why do you make it tragic? She died from bum loss
It was it was awful. Listen guys time loss is bum loss exactly
I uh, I think here's one that I had to learn the hard way
sometimes
When your friend or or significant other comes to you and is upset or depressed or angry
Sometimes they don't want to be
Cheered up. I know exactly what you're saying. Sometimes they just
want you to
Say that it is in fact shitty what is going on. Mm-hmm. Sometimes they just want to vent
Sometimes they just want to know that what they did was right because like when you're trying to tear them up and be like
Hey, man, it's gonna be okay. They're like, yeah, I know it's gonna fucking be okay. I'm an adult who knows the situation
I'm just saying it sucked at this time the idea though for us
Specifically for the three of us and our fam and growing up coming up mackerel
Coming up macroys a new name of the podcast coming to esquire channel coming up macroi three zany bros
um
The idea of something being not a laughing matter was like
incomprehensible, so like I still have no
I still obviously if somebody's like, yeah, uh, basically my whole family just died like I wouldn't be like, oh, well time to bat man
Sometimes that is actually a fear in my life that that I'll make a joke like that
Just everyone in the room will slowly turn to me horrified. I'm like, why would you say that our podcast is just an hour of that
Yeah, I don't know. I'm really bad at that when like somebody is like
Really pissed off about something and I'd be like, yeah, well at least
Here's a joke about ryan locti and then they'll be like this isn't
This isn't that that I wanted I wanted something different
I find it best that when someone comes to be bummed out just to like listen and say like, yeah, man
I know rather than try to be like grass is always greener
Sunshine's tomorrow. There's always another day silver lining because that that shit can get annoying
Unless it's you know unless you get the feeling that that's what they're looking for but don't just assume that
But should you if that's your natural inclination though? Oh if you're like mr. Sunshine
No, that's my question is like
It is my natural inclination
To try to cheer somebody up if they're upset. I mean that it is just my natural impulse
Is it right that I should
subvert that
Because it's what the other person wants. I mean is that case by case, isn't it?
It's case by case. I don't I don't think you can say it's
It's it's standard in uniform
Let's let's let's role play let's role play and you guys can come out in different ways
I'll be somebody who's depressing you guys you guys come at me and see just how you handle the situation. All right, Travis. You'll be the comforting
Empathizer okay, and I'll be like
Chuckles okay
man
My man
It's you know
They just burn notice got picked up by sq. I'm worried that they're gonna change the plot and just like everything
Everything fucking sucks today. Yeah, man. I hear you
whoo
Like that's the character. That's it. That's all you that's the fucking way
What do you want like yeah, I know I hear they also picked up psych. Am I right?
They're gonna ruin it. I hear they're getting rid of delay. They wouldn't dare
That would be the biggest mistake. I know right and now it's shut up because we're talking about delay
God, you know the ways to I know right cortex
All right now. It's my turn. Okay
All right, go ahead Griffin. You want to set up again?
Uh, please do you want the same one or do you want me to talk about another problem in my life?
Because right now that's really the most pressing thing I have. Uh, same one same one. Okay. Okay
Yeah, I don't know. It's just you know, I used to just I knew which channel burn notice was on it was on USA
Yeah, TNT. I used to just turn it on channel 32 USA
That's where USA lives on my tv
I would turn it on and just let it fucking cruise because I knew where the plot was going new the characters are going now
Who knows boy griffin whenever I feel the way you're feeling. You know who I turned to
My puppet friend walter. Hey, thanks for having thanks for getting me out of the box
You're just doing jeff dunham. I think you're doing a jeff dunham thing
I think he's actually doing uh, the beaver the mil Gibson movie the beaver which started even puppet named walter
You're doing jeff beaver. It's me. Jose jalapeno. Honestly. No, it's definitely
Hold on now. Let there be no let there be no doubt about it. He has gone full dunham
We have it. I'm sorry listen gentlemen. Justin's gone full dunham. There is only one punishment for me. You guys got me
Uh, it's it's Ahmed the dead terrorist silent thank you. I can flip the kill switch
I kill you. I kill you sweet protocol protocol black
Sexy garfield. He's compromised sexy. Comfort is going to compromise flood it flood the station
Guys my office is filling with water blow it blow the diodes release the biotoxin. We're done. Diodes just blew in my office. What are you guys doing?
The only way to kill Justin is to poison with the biotoxin while he's drowning and being electrocuted
Once he gets going on that dunham tear. He becomes like the fucking juggernaut. You know who's like the fucking juggernaut my friend
Bubba j
Why do you know so many jeff dunham puppets? Cuz I'm on wikipedia. You dumb fuck
Who's the dumb fuck now google knows what's up with you and you're jeff dunham lust
Have I talked about the
I as soon as I moved to austin I was like meeting people and I was meeting people who knew
Like my friends and it's that weird time and you don't know like whether this person is going to become a close friend of yours
Or just an acquaintance that you're going to meet exactly once how I was meeting those people
And for some reason I started using whether or not they like jeff dunham as a metric and there is a horrifying
Horrifying amount of people who fucking swear by that dude's brand of comedy
It and it's the people you least expect because I'd be like hanging out with me
Like you're really cool
I think you're gonna be one of my new friends in this hometown and then I would make a jeff dunham joke and they'd be like
I don't understand why you're
I don't understand why you're making fun of jeff dunham because like his shit's so on point
Travis, I'm sorry. Are you a bigger jeff dunham fan than I knew or are you like completely ignorant about the work of jeff dunham?
huh
Okay, you know he was on ellen he was also on 30 rock
Which makes me think that maybe this dude, maybe maybe maybe
Maybe he's one of those guys that has like worked up this whole persona
But in real life is like god. I know that this is like the stupidest shit
But for some reason they love it like larry the cable guy. You mean exactly like larry the cable guy
One name behind the scenes is like, please call me laurence. Please. My name is laurence cable doctor
I went to cable university for seven years to get my doctorate in cabling
I can't believe I've sung to such a level
I got that program finished
Like god or dun is like his thing
Sure
I recently found out the men I work with make more money than I do
I'm a lady working as a carpenter
Cabinet maker really in a small old-fashioned town where the chance getting hired anywhere else is not likely
I'm really mad, but I'm not sure what to do about it. Can you help?
That's from equality challenge on the east coast
Well, you've come to the right place. You've come to just the right place as white men. We
Ah, dammit. Can you carve secret messages in the cabinets?
Like what like when people buy the cabinet inside it was it says like made by an underpaid woman. Yeah
Oh, that's way better than what I thought you're going with it. I thought you meant like magic spells to make it like Indian in the cupboard
Uh, oh my god. Wait. Holy shit. Wait a minute
Travis are you saying that you think she should carve incantations into the cabinets?
Listen, all I'm saying is the Indian in the cupboard cupboard had to come from somewhere, right?
Okay, so it's like a pier magically in the little boys bedroom
This is great. You put monopoly money in there close it and then all of a sudden you've that's like you've
You've you you create a toy version of the lily led better act and you put it in there
And then it's it's it's been ratified into law. Have you thought about asking for more money?
But that's horseshit. She shouldn't have to why don't you put your fucking boss in the cupboard turn him into a toy
You'd probably it's probably a small cupboard though. You probably have to fucking kill him
You know, I'm so embarrassed now you guys because I've just remembered that in India and they covered it's not the cupboard at all
It's the key because at one point he uses it on a chest and that's how he goes to visit a little bear
I'm so right. Oh, yeah, this is humiliating
We'll probably have to delete this question for the show
Because people are listening like it's the key you dumb fucks all the people
I'm like indian in the cupboard forums are just like, oh my god. I can't believe key master 73 just said that
I can't believe it. He's got key in his username
And it's why didn't he know that his avatar is a key. I think talking to your boss is probably a good first option
Uh, at least opening that discussion
Thread so may I suggest something much more passive aggressive
Of course. Thank you. So say you're getting paid 77 cents on the dollar, right?
You should start doing 77 of the normal work of everyone else or make all your cabinet parts
77 smaller than spec then spec requires then the blueprint has demanded
And then the boss comes to you and he's like, hey, what the hell? He'd be like, oh, this is all i'm getting paid for
Oh, sorry, you only paid me to put saloon doors on this cabinet. Sorry. Sorry
Yeah, I know it's supposed to be for for private unmentionables, but now people are going to be able to see the tops
I know that this was your unmentionables cabinet
I'm a small i'm a carpenter who works at an independent
Unmentionables cabinet agency. We build eight. We build cabinets to spec
It's a small town with small unmentionables ideals
And now my doors are going to be even smaller because fuck these pigs
Why don't you carve that in your fucking cat? Fuck these pigs. I hope you enjoy your cabinet
It's made by it's made by hate pigs
Are you all are you maybe the youngest?
Are you the most not it not even like physically the youngest but the most junior member of the staff?
Is that possible?
Or is that just me like wishing the glass ceiling wasn't there?
I actually know from other details from a longer email that she said that she is not that there have been that have been hired
Sensor. Well, that's dog shit. Well, that's dog shit. Tell us who they are and we'll tell everybody not to buy their fucking
misogynist cabinets or start carving
Like a you need to come up with some branding and carve that into the cabinet and then we say only buy cabinets that have
That have equality challenge on the east coast brand on it or start your own cabinet company with us
Fabbinets fabbinets. Yes
equal
Equal blinlets
Equal blin
Equal abin equal in venance equal venance hernature
Oh my god, that's pretty good, right? Yeah
Yeah, so we'll start that company and fuck those guys hernature fabbinets
If you don't buy a hernature fabbinet, you're putting your clothes in the garbage
The good news is I watch shark tank like one person can start a revolution
You you've got to go and tell this story
To all the sharks and they'll be like i'm gonna gobble this up. You hook you hooked me
Um, and you'll have a million. Can I say something though to please I do not think they'd bite
I do not think they'd bite for hernature fabbinets
Why?
It just doesn't seem particularly lucrative. You're charging a premium
You're charging a premium for for an ideal and that is i'm just saying mark cuban. It's not gonna fucking
Not gonna bite that bait
Will if you get his kids involved mark cuban will always invest
If you if the product involves his kids, I saw him give a woman
An 18 year old girl an 18 year old girl fight. Well, I guess 18 year old woman technically adult woman
$500,000 for her eczema skin product line because his kids have eczema. That's it
That's it. You make hernature toy fabbinets. Mm-hmm. What do you what do your kids got?
They where are your kids gonna put their fucking eczema medicine mark
They're gonna put them in a hernature fabbinet
It's got a little picture of eczema on it
So the kids know what what is stored in this particular unit and they got fine characters like laurence the cable gentleman
Lawrence the scaly cable gentleman
He applies he's in this caricature. He's applying a salve. He's applying a salve to his rotten
rotten flesh
Of balms and salves necessary to keep your keep your ship right
it's max fun drive time

Griffin i'm ready hit me with this first question
Um
Yeah, let's let's get into it. How about this one? Uh, it was sent in by katherine hoffman. Thank you katherine
It's by yahoo answers user tony who asks
How long can you wear edible underwear?
Plan to surprise the lady for valentine's day problem is I need to work that day and I will not have time to change
Before I see her. Is it okay to wear it for long periods of time? I work in construction
Oh, no, that's the worst thing you could have said at the end
That is not a real question. That's not a real question. You guys you're getting faked out
No one has ever in the whole history of edible underwear ever worn edible underwear, which are fruit roll-ups in the shape of panties
Sure
Pass pass. No, it didn't happen. No
What happens to all the edible underwear then do you just get desperate realize you have no fruit roll-ups in the house and just go for it
Yeah, you pack them into your kids lunch
Send them off to school
Do you at least cut them into fun shapes, or do you just like
Just sort of let her go a helicopter parent when you bother your dad
Let your kids cut your kid can't tear it apart with his teeth like everybody else with fruit roll-up under these are some tough panties
You're tearing all the kids creativity away too. Let the kid tear the panties into whatever shapes he wants to exactly
Also as somebody who has
Dived so deep into yahoo answers who's i'm i'm perpetually stuck in yahoo answers limbo
I am not convinced that there isn't somebody out there
Who wears edible underwear for their comfort?
For their just you know for the thing is the thing is the missing part there though
The leap you haven't made is there might be somebody out there wearing edible underwear
But no one in the whole history of edible underwear has ever slept with that person or any other person who wears a little underwear
Oh, I see that that person wears edible underwear in theory that they might one day in practice have sex with somebody
But it's never gonna happen sure
But if there were such a fucking psychopath on there, they would be an active user in the yahoo answer service
That is a hundred percent true griffin. How about another how about another question? I want to help someone today. This is our chance
um
How about this it was sent in by emily wall. Thank you emily. It's by yahoo answers user drop dead gorgeous who asks
Well idk how I would ask this but um, how do you touch a girl's boobs?
You see I've touched her boobs before but idk if I did it right and I got real nervous
Also, how do you do it while her shirt is still on?
Dan, I should have warned you before we started uh, sometimes our show can get a little blue
So I I don't want to make you uncomfortable. Uh, things do get a tad racy
We talk about things that could be observed as being sin in the eyes of the lord. Yeah, so just a heads up just a heads up
Uh, how do you touch it? Okay, if you know about this, I would love to hear it. Uh, how do you touch a girl's boobs?
with permission
Number one. Yeah key thing. I would start with consent
Absolutely, have you tried being super attractive and charming and like saying dope shit?
To women that does seem like people who are on on on all sides of the court
People who are very attractive and say the right things all the time. They seem to
To touch the most privates. I've also found that women really like it when you pretend to be a dj on their boobs
No, I don't think that's
100 of the time every I'm gonna have to I'm gonna have to defer to you guys on this you're three straight guys, right?
I've only ever touched a girl's boobs under duress in my teen years when I was trying to prove I was right
And I'm sure I was bad at it
I crowded subway car perhaps. I mean
No girlfriend. I had girlfriends
I said dope shit and I got a girlfriend
Do dick shit that I didn't want to do with her and it was a disaster
Apparently pretending your girlfriend is andy gibbs is not a form of birth control
I mean, there's a lot of methods you can
I'll tell you this don't go to yahoo answers to ask this
Because one the the top answer is who cares just grab it. That's not it
That's a hundred percent the wrong one. Oh, that's not right even with consent just like blindly just like
Just latching on like an alien, baby. Just going with going with the double crab claws
Like a drunk guy looking for the light switch
Have you guys all had sex with more than one woman each?
At the same time no
In sequence, I'm just I would assume that women
Different women enjoy having their boobs touched differently. You know some guys like to have their balls slapped and some guys just like to have them cupped
Right. Yeah the same
I like having one ball slapped and the other one cupped at the same time. That's a big trick
That's a good trick or you can do I like to be like that uh that desktop thing where you swing one and then they kind of
Clack against each other. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I forgot to mention this is I mean obviously Justin and Travis knows this because they're my brothers
But dan I have super loose balls
They are crazy crazy crazy loose. It's well
You should do your kagels and you can actually get there's a surgery where they take in your scrotum
It's not a lot of nerve endings in the scrotum so you can safely have that
That adjusted for you. Yeah. Well, I'll see about that. See you are goddamn. You're good at this. Yeah, you know things
Yeah, I know things
Inside at least a few things before we start doing this again guys because we really don't know any
Know anything
I think you got to start tender and then you can ramp up from there if you if need be if the feedback you it's all about
Active feedback, isn't it? It's all about doing some shit start with the most harmless shit you can and then just ramp it up
Ramp it up. Hey, can I tell you a funny story about my uncle another one of those straight guys in the world like you three?
Sure
It's about balls. So it's kind of relevant
He was a rock star in california in the 70s of this big regional band and he used to get a lot of blowjobs from
What are those things called groupies and because it was the 70s
He slept with a lot of virgin groupies and that was fine with him
And he likes a lot of pain during a blowjob
He likes to have his balls punched and slapped and his dick bitten. Hey, uncle jimmy if you're listening. How you doing?
Welcome to the show uncle jimmy
And so what he would always say uh to these girls when they would when he would instruct them on how exactly he liked his
Junk just mauled is he would pat them on the head and say this is how all guys like it
Oh
So that when they then slept with the next rock star
That's the poor guy
Got his junk just fucking
Beat down
And that would be my uncle jimmy late at night. He'd think oh that girl I slept with last month is now
Sucking mc jagger off. Wonder how that's going
Not good
You're creating you're creating psychological time bombs inside of his women's sex
That's actually what painted black was written about. Um, I I
may have poor can you imagine like
Thinking like oh you must be one of jimmy's girls. I can't believe
You've been poison the well for everybody you carry his brand of
This
ball trauma
um
That might have taken care of your loose balls couldn't she could have taken a chunk out of him and you could have stitched it right up
Right. Yeah, there you go. Sure. That would have been on the lopsided, but sergeants. You can keep a secret trap griffin
I needed one more question. I know you have one more
Um, I have a few uh, oh this one this one. Okay. This one was sent by ballery rogers. Thanks ballery. It's by yahoo answers user
d3 41255 which
I imagine it's not their christian name
Who asks should mixed gender swim classes be allowed at my daughter's schools from sixth to tenth grade in pe
She attends the swim unit and boys and girls have it together. Why is this allowed?
Shouldn't this make the girls feel uncomfortable and give boys an opportunity to harass and humiliate girls and cause distractions and goofing off
Among everybody not to mention young boys will be around with no shirt
Which I think is inappropriate for girls to be a round of
Wolf wow see this do I sort of
I don't think I don't think there should be mixed gender relationships at all in pools and
In no situation those mixed gender relationships. They never work out
Right. Well, I mean I guess
In in defense of whatever principal or gym teacher is put together this particular program
Uh, six to tenth grade is like there's a bubble there in a young man's life where he is incredibly sexually mature
Um, and he knows how to really handle himself around, you know temptation and his female peers and that bubble lasts
From ages, you know 10 to 10 to 15. So this is I mean, I don't see any problem with it
I I would also say that
The young men, uh, do not need any extra help to sexualize women at that point
So I think whether they're in, you know bathing suits are like full-on parkas or encased in iron maidens
It doesn't matter and if the water in the pool is growing increasingly opaque over the course of the swim class
If there's a half inch of spume on top of this of foamy spume
There's an issue. We brought out a uv light in the place burned down
It was a bad scene I am stealing that
That fucking graduating class is not going to be able to look at each other on the on the fucking podium and getting their diplomas
No
Not that there isn't sexual tension
I must say in a single gender swim class that I had to do in freshman year at quickly preparatory seminary north
A high school catholic school for boys thinking about becoming priests where I shit you not the whole title of the school
Quickly preparatory seminary north
Where I shit you not swim class was in the nude. We wonder where these problems
What the what?
Did this swim class happen next to the vomitorium because it plays an ancient room?
Basically, and there were two priests on staff full-time. They were called disciplinarians
They sat in an office all day having teenage boys sent to them to get spanked
I was going to be a priest until they eliminated those positions and then I thought
You know what I can wear dresses just live in a big house and fuck boys without the whole ordination business
Waiting list a mile long. Oh my god. Yeah, that position is like right below the pope. I mean, I love I don't have the grades
I just I don't have the grades and on the community service. I'll never get the job
There's a whole line of dudes. That's right and get that gig. Although, you know, I think about it
If your entire high school class had all been through this
This fucking obstacle course of sexuality
Maybe it would like get a bunch of shit out of the way and then you could like focus on school and stuff
Maybe this would be like the most enlightened high school class ever because they don't have to think about
those things
Right. Uh, let me check my schedule real quick. I got a math first period and then I got English and then I got boners and
I had boners all day every day for an entire semester. So like I don't I can't get boners anymore
No, I think I just sensitized the boners forever, right sixth grade though
Like girls are you know more developed than boys they develop faster than boys
Wouldn't that be you know, you people worry about the girls being harassed or slut shamed or made to feel uncomfortable
Wouldn't the boys be the ones who feel uncomfortable in sixth grade because the girls are a foot taller than they are and
Dating guys in college and there they are like still like hairless little monkeys with no hair on their nuts
Wouldn't it be mortifying for the boys?
Listen, Dan if I put off interacting with the girls until I'm sexually developed
Uh, I don't think I would have had I wouldn't have met a woman until my late 20s. So yeah, you wouldn't be married right now
I wouldn't be married right now. Yeah
I don't think there's any age at which I weren't I wore sweatpants
All through my freshman year of high school because I didn't want to change for gym
Like and that was I was 14 or 15 at that point like yeah
Not because I was afraid of changing for gym, but I did at one point have to have uh
Someone had to sit me down and talk to me about wearing dress shirts and tear away pants as a look
And so I don't think there was ever a worry about me interacting with
Can I tell you something?
We'll make you want to get in a time machine and go blow your brains out when you're 15 when I was 15
I had a girlfriend who was my older brother's ex-girlfriend and I lost my virginity in a three way
to a girl
So I was I was doing well with the ladies at 15 because I didn't give a shit. I was like, all right, I guess
Just think about how many more three ways you could have been in though if you were in tear away pants
That fucking pool travis would have
At 15, I had also mastered button and zipper technology and I could actually get my pants off when that when the moment
Well, some of us were not all that advanced down
Yeah, travis doesn't have pre oh mr. Braggie McGee coming over from his podcast
And so great at taking his pants off off it on off it on you would have you would have gotten more pussy when you were 15
If you were gay, that's all I'm saying
Advice for everyone
Dan it before we let you go is anything we can help you with
I you know, I do find that unfathomable, but okay
I had girlfriends and I was 15. I had sex with girls
Uh, I I never performed cunnilingus and if there's you know, say I get arrested
I get thrown in prison and the men's prisons are full and I'm sent to a women's prison
And there's some like bizarre set of circumstances under which I am required to perform cunnilingus. How do you do that?
Yeah, okay
I like to play like I'm a dj
No, the dj is not we're not doing that again. We're not going to the dj. Let me ask you something. Did you uh,
Dan, did you listen to
Did you listen to the radio at all in the 90s?
I did there was a man. There was a I asked because there was a man named john popper
Who was the front man for a band called blues traveler?
And the way that he does his thing on harmonica is basically like that except
Except it's like sideways. It's so are you telling me are you are you advising our friend Dan that should he be in this alternate
Universe which frankly sounds a lot like a lot of the slash fiction. I've read over the year
The women the man's prison was all full. I was the only dude and uh, I you're saying he should blow
I'm saying the vagina like john popper close your eyes
Close your eyes and imagine the bridge from hook
If the blues traveler song hook
I will try I will try my best
You could also close your eyes and imagine the final battle from the movie hook and just do that as well
Peter pan versus dustin hoffman as captain hook now. Let me tell you this
Women hate it when you shout banger rang into their vaginas
that isn't that is
As long as you don't do that really you should be fine. You should be fine
Anything else goes. Oh
I will do it. I can
Also start gentle ramp up. Maybe they do this is better advice
This is better advice than a bisexual friend of mine gave who said just pretend you're trying to extract a bullet from a wound
Pretend that your lady's vagina has just been bitten by a cobra
Stuff that venom out get that venom out
She's got a limb damn it pretend the clit is a bullet and you are without using your teeth trying to remove it
From this gunshot wound that is for business that that parenthetical in there is so vital. Yeah, it's so important
Yeah, do not actually try to remove it
It's in there for a reason unless unless unless
You know
Everybody likes something different. That's true. You just got to ask your friend to jimmy's
Yeah, I was gonna say she could be the she could be my aunt jimmy
I mean while we have the opportunity
Do we have any advice? I have a question for you. The uh, the three of us were raised, uh, southern baptist
Um, and I'm sorry. I know our parents are wonderful people and and and and they taught us a lot of good stuff
but in terms of um
Becoming I guess. What's the what's the word? I'm looking more modern in our
approach to sexuality we kind of all had to learn the hard way in getting rid of a lot of the
Teachings lessons that we learn like from especially from that religious background the beatitudes the beatitudes for example
Like is there a better path to getting out like to to unlearning those lessons rather than just looking like a dumbass enough until it gets through
Well, I think when it comes to men raised in the southern baptist tradition
The quickest way to help them unlearn a lot of the sex phobia and hang ups and slut shaming and double standards
Is to bend them over the sofa and fuck them in the ass really hard with a strap on dildo
Is there an option b?
Hey, listen, I'm not ruling anything out. I'm going to change. I'm doing I'm gonna change
I'm gonna do whatever it takes
You know option b is just get out there in the world and live your life and you'll encounter all sorts of different people
Who disprove a lot of the bullshit that you're taught in in your faith tradition. I always raised catholic
I was telling a lot of bullshit too
And you get out there in the world and you realize that it's not as simple or as
Cut and dried or black and white or jesus likes this and jesus doesn't like that as your parents and your preachers and teachers
Let you to believe it's a quick learning process
I think jesson's hoping for a
Sort of a safe environment where you can do this and maybe get it over within a week
Maybe like some sort of maybe like some sort of camp experience where san francisco
There should be like camps for straight guys in san francisco
Where you just get dropped off in a speedo at the corner of market in castro
On a friday night and you have to fight your way back to your hotel in san diego without any help from anybody
Just go nuts. A strange survivor will follow it and you just have to that's right. It's like new hunger games
I would watch that you will have your eyes and your thighs opened for you

Questions I got them
Answers you want them. It's my brother. My brother and me. It's a show. It's a podcast. It's a
pyramid scheme
Don't tell anybody
I shouldn't have put that in the jane call and then the podcast made off with my money
Yeah, thank you. I've been working on that one for a couple years. I said that podcast priests
Everything I had
My boyfriend of five months recently asked if I would help him deep clean his apartment
He seemed hurt by my immediate response of clean your own damn place, dude
To be fair, he did not ask me to clean for him
He just asked if I would be willing to help out as a favor
I have to admit his place is gross and I would love it if it was less so
But I can't help feeling weird about scrubbing my boyfriend's toilet
Is my response unreasonable? Should I be down with the idea of helping him clean his place?
That's from perplexed in portland. How about just don't scrub his toilet?
How about you just clean his stove? He handles toilet, dude. I would never ever ever
Want someone else to clean my house ever ever. Where did you put everything I need?
I don't know. I put it in all cabinet somewhere not just that but like I hope you enjoyed
Touching my fecal particles because it's not just guess what doesn't just live in the toilet
There's more of his futile cool particles on his stove than in his toilet, which is horrifying
You need to ask him what he's been doing there. Why is he pooping on his stove?
It's a great question Travis. Thank you. Thank you Trash for asking the big question. The big hard question
We're not afraid to ask the big question to you. Why are you pooping on your stove Dylan?
They're afraid to answer them or look at them
I I you gotta say no this sucks. It sucks that he put you in this position. Now hold on
Don't you think it could be like breaking two electric boogaloo kind of like a montage cleaning?
Oh, I feel you know you happy fun times get those get those cobwebs off the ceiling fan by dancing upwards onto the ceiling
There's a scene I'm just saying that in every movie where you see people like cleaning up a new space
They found everybody seems so happy and they're growing closer. Yeah, that's friends. Fuck me on these old pizza boxes
At the end of montage
We've been we've been cleaning so so long for so hard. We're real sweaty. Fuck me on these pizza boxes
Do that thing where you paint on his nose? You know with the roller you're like, oh you got me
You know what and and camera tricks make it look like you're painting over the camera. No, I love that
I love that move. You know what? I would I would be so mad if somebody painted on my nose
I don't care how lovely we are. Do you know how hard it is to get this shit off?
I know it's latex and it'll like peel off but still you maybe look like a fucking moron
It happens in Benjamin Button
And they it's him and Kate Linchette
Kate Linchette the love interest in Benjamin Button and he paints on her nose and I thought
You
What an asshole that's your day
That's your whole fucking day
You know when like somebody pinches your nose and it hurts like shit
Like it hurts when you apply any amount of pressure to your nose whatsoever
You've got to scrub that shit to get it off. You got to use the lie
Oh
He should not have asked it was incorrect. It was a miss miscalculation
To ask because like no five months. Yeah, okay
Here's the thing I agree because it's one thing if you like you volunteer like hey
Hey, you should maybe pick this place up. I'm happy to help if another thing you buy. Oh man, my place is dumb
My turlet needs grouting grout my turlet
Now it does okay, but on the flip side of this if you spend any sort of time there
A considerable amount of time then you know if you guys are like splitting living
Places, I think it's a fair request to ask, you know, I can ask you to pitch in. Why is this fucking place so dirty?
Why doesn't he fucking clean it himself?
It's one thing to be like, hey, we make dinner together. Let's do the dishes together
It's another to be like, man, I've been living in squalor for like six months
Well, he could find a way to work around. Help me throw out everything that I've been hoarding
I know you I know you've used this turlet as well during your five months where you've been over here
um, so would it really kill you to
To get us help us both out. You're really doing us both a favor by scrubbing my turlet
Is he gonna help you clean up your apartment? Oh, she doesn't she doesn't need that
Okay, so then I think that she doesn't need to help him. Yeah, she doesn't need to help him
Tell tell us messy ass that you're not coming over anymore until he cleans up period. Yeah, you're saying no scrubs
No scrubs until you scrubs
Tell tell him to creep to the hardware store, where do they sell cleaning supplies?
Tell him tell tell him to
Make a waterfall of scrubbing bubbles
And it too is I don't know what even the cleaning supplies are called. I'm gonna clean clean. Have you cleaned stuff before?
I'm just I don't produce any waste is that I've like I've managed to streamline
I've just managed to streamline my life so much that I don't produce any waste in any like any format
No, no oils. My body doesn't produce any natural oils. No sweats
No, I mean
I don't
I haven't evacuated in like 15 years. This is what I'm saying
I'm so sick
Listen this this whole podcast is just a cry for help you guys
Belly's the size of a sumo beat back
Well, it's not a cry for help Travis because I can't cry is what I'm saying
I've managed to come out. I I keep it inside
I managed to exude all of my body's natural toxins through a vapor
We should be we should be
Uh, introducing ourselves as your oldest your middleist and your lumpiest
Unsettlingly lumpiest your most jaundice. Well, the lumps are just my toxin sacs, which is where I exude
No problem
It's naturally and that's how if it became a batman villain. Do not touch them. Oh my god
I know I produce a natural rattling noise that makes you that sparks the cure that peaks the curiosity
He often lures in small children that way. Mm-hmm
Uh, I got a question for you guys
I'm going to be caught in between two jobs in a month or so
I plan on relocating to a different state at the end of the summer where my girlfriend is starting grad school
And we'll be continuing my civil engineering career there. However at my current company people are resigning left and right indicating a sinking ship
I have a suspicion that I'll have the summer free. My question is this
What can I do for three months that can still put food on the table?
But it has only a short term commitment. I'm an outdoorsy numbers nerd an amateur tinkerer
That's from future carney in chicago. Okay. You want no secret hit me anything. Yeah, let me hold on. Let me go ahead and
type your
Type your your metrics here into the job assistant that places you so outdoorsy numbers nerd
amateur tinker
Subway just go work at subway
Not on the subway at a subway
Subway sandwich you too can be a sandwich artist. Mm-hmm
Here's the important thing no matter what interview you go into you just want to keep that three month time limit
Right in your pocket. Uh, I'll pull that move. I see a big future for myself here at here at the wall greens
I got some big ideas about how you guys can change up the way that you sell your offering chips
Where do you see yourself in five years? Whoa? Whoa? Whoa? Whoa? Whoa? Let's scale that back
Where I see myself in 10
Here did you guess here because the answer is here at wall greens? I love I'm never going anywhere
I don't have kids, but when I do they're gonna work at wall greens this wall. I wanted to be a family business
The important thing is that uh one one one ploy you can take is found a uh softball league
An intro wall green softball league
Literally weeks before you are to resign they will know because then you can really quit saying like I don't I mean
I can't leave you guys right now. It's two we got inventory coming up
There's the the division playoffs against cvs like I don't know
I don't know how we can how I can leave now or maybe like drama
Organize everyone into like a wall greens union and then just before the strike you quit
I'm the sacrifice that this wall greens demands. I'm I'm sorry. You'll have to go on without me
I have to go into hiding like Batman at the end of dark night. Remember the lessons. I've taught you
I am the I am not the cashier that this wall greens
Deserves, but I'm the one it no longer has
I actually I worked at a I worked at a jimmy johns in norman, oklahoma knowing that you know
The school year is about to end and I was about to go home
And it provides a lot of psychological freedom because like if your boss yells at you for doing something wrong
Or like they work you a terrible shift or something. It's like yeah, but in your head, you know
That fuck that place. I don't want to put you on blast tries. We weren't you fired from that jimmy johns
No, they actually wanted to make me an assistant manager and I left
I have been fired from a lot of places griffin. Yeah, so I understand why that is a safe assumption
I gotta mash this jimmy johns do anything you want to this is a great time for you
Do write do a job for three months. You can write a book about I think that there's too many x
Subway employees, maybe that book's being pitched all over like memories of a subway
subway artist
And just people like no we already have 20 of those
manuscripts
A lot of this in the hopper a lot of those are cooking up in
Pre-imperial if you could write a subway based movie now we're talking now you get now you're cooking up
There already is a fucking subway tv show. I see ads on it for hulu all the time
You know about this
What sorry it's called. I think it's called the nine to fivers
It's a hulu only tv show as all the best television programming
It is
Good job and it's about people who work as subway and it's not like fun way. It's not like an offshoot. It's fucking legit
To quit subway. It seems like they're by subway. It seems like a pretty good show. I'd probably watch that show
It's pretty good. It's all about, you know love life
making sandwiches, of course
there's a
There's a lot of commercials for hulu based programs
That don't that. I don't know that look pretty good. I saw a lot of commercials from i'm
Been been watching real shows watching real shows watching real television fake shows on here
Yeah, do you know how they pay for all those fake shows? How because they have a fucking show that's all about subway
They have subway programming
Anyway, it makes me so angry. I have a yahoo answer if
You guys don't mind the leap
Uh, maybe this will calm calm my nerves. Uh, it's sent by emily wall. Thank you. It's by yahoo interseasor layla bell who asks
I'm a cat person and so is my friend. We understand each other's meows and other sounds
Oh
Wait, hold on when in the dark we are cat
Wait a minute, holy shit
What actually this is so weird because when you said the phrase I am a cat person
My first thought was I've been doing the show too long because I know what this person means is there a person who likes to own
Cats I hear like I'm a half cat half person when in fact I tried to vocalize the hyphen
In between cat and person
I am a cat person
When in the dark we are cat, but in the light we are human my friend has sharp cat-like teeth
But I'm less obvious
We don't change shape, but we lose complete control and go cat
Please if anyone has info on this or has the same experience fill us in
Okay, so they want help. How do we fix it? We can't help it. Oh my god. I don't want to fix it. I want to
Hang I just want to hang
Can we get one hang going please just one here's the thing just and think about the reality of that situation because let's be honest
Lights, you know the lights go dim and you're just watching a fucking real person. Well, you're not watching now. I'm a cat
Travis if you can see them
If there's if there's enough light to hold on they're human beings
So even if you were doing like night vision goggles
See that's the only way that's the only way you can deserve these fools in their natural environment
Cruel fate to to be in a room. It's like ladyhawk, you know
Like you're in a room with a cat person
But you can't you can only see them as person because they can't really like
Go ham with the lights on you need night vision goggles. You gotta have nvgs
That is unless it's like a Cal Mitchell in in uh, oh
In real life
Cal Mitchell is only Cal Mitchell when he's being naturally observed
Otherwise he is Keenan Thompson otherwise. Oh no
I don't think that's it
Although I've never seen them in the same room at the same time
That's why the show is called Keenan slash Cal Keenan or Cal. Do you watch Keenan or Cal?
Keenan by way of Cal
Keenan stroke Cal
Oh
Man this situation
Oh, man
Oh, I just want to know what it's like to be in a room with two people that you think are otherwise
People people person persons not cat person. It's just person persons and then the lights go off. You're like, oh, there's a power surge
Why does this sound like you're pooping in a box? Where's my milk? Where's my milk? Where did it go?
Sounds like it's being lapped, but that's weird. I don't have a cat. I only have two people peoples
This is a strange situation. I'm in
I think I'd like to leave
You can't leave. I think I'd like to leave this room. Where's the door? I can't see the door the door because the lights are off
Here's the terrifying thing they can see you because as cats they have superb dark vision
So they're hunting you now cat eyes. You're the prey. They're the predator. They're the predator
I can't it's like if you're from what side to your left. It's I mean, it's bright in my room
My real cat is outside. Maybe he's a person when it's dark
That would suck that would suck if that happened
If there was like a if there was like a two second like window where like the power goes out and it comes back on
And there's just like a fucking dude on my couch. Just like
It changes like just like that. I would be fucking freaked. I would move out the house is yours now. Cecil. I'm done
You are welcome, steven king
Send us a check when you make this into a book and a movie and a play
Yeah, another movie if you're gonna fucking larp an animorph
Which if I had said that sentence 10 years ago to anybody I would be committed to an insane asylum
Pretty much tried away
But if but now thanks to yahu answers I can fucking crack that cipher if I were to larp an animorph
Why would you go with a fucking domesticated house cat and not a more exotic animal?
Ooh, good call a more erotic animal eat. Do they say house cat or they just say cat
Big it could be a big beautiful jungle cat. He's got a point. And that's a good up with sinewy like like a
Cougar with a sinewy muscles. I get it
