Starting point is 00:00:00 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 Precious friendship I could have never seen what was coming for me hangs at the skate park hangs by the beach my life It feels It's better it's better

I'm your mitt expert I'm spitting. Okay. I'm your spittlest brother Travis McElroy. I'm your sweet baby brother celebrity body language interpreter and And sort of envoy to the stars and all the sweet drama drama that exists in the nebulous sort of space between them Griffin McElroy and boys. We got a dozer to break down for you for you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, isn't it strange It's 90s kids are gonna love this one. Oh my god. They're wild for it Remember because the magic loogie episode of Seinfeld
Starting point is 00:01:49 Recreated the Zapruder film as a spitting incident and now that is happening in real life funny show funny life It's just like when I had my vasectomy and the doctor dropped a junior man into my testicles. Yeah Yeah, and it felt pretty good. Yeah, it still feels good. Yeah, man It's so we're yeah, that's why we call this show my brother my waddler in me And so you heard all the takes that you need to add this point about these two famous is and if one spit it on the other One, but we're here. I think to put our own sort of like Up twisted Skewed spin on it. You're right
Starting point is 00:02:34 Because we I think the three of us Have operated in these circles. I've never met Christopher or Harold but I Haven't met Chris. I haven't met Christopher or Harold, but I have probably met people who have met Christopher and Harold So I feel uniquely qualified feel rule on this one First of all, can't wait to see first of all get it out of the gotta get it Gotta get day one gotta get my tickets to this flick. I don't know what that is. It seems like that's gonna be the smooth and easy It's gonna be absolute slam dunk
Starting point is 00:03:12 Everyone seems happy with it first step in the process is find out the name of the flick and then I'm gonna get on night It's spit night at the Hawksbury Gonna get on fun dango and secure my tickets It's on Roku and so that's gonna give us a lot of the clues that we need but we don't need them I Need to see the film Oh, and then and then they'll be able to rule on it I I'm a star. I'm a body language expert to the stars. Go ahead Travis. The one thing I know about the movie
Starting point is 00:03:47 Yeah, is that if you look at the cast? Yeah, it's like the first the four people are overwhelmed by beauty You're well, but also it seems like it seems like maybe four different movies are being made at the same time when I tell you that Florence view who's yeah, great great great and then Chris pine. Oh, I could see them being in the bad by the time You're listening to this. Yeah, who knows it's Thursday when we're recording Thursday There's a lot of ballgame between now and release day. Okay, but here's what I'm saying I could see Florence here and and where
Starting point is 00:04:22 And and Chris pine being in the same movie. Okay, then we add in Harold Styles. Oh Okay, that's interesting and the Nick Crow was there and I'm like, what is it? What is this movie about? What is this thing happening funny funny funny folks in it? Okay, so let's get into it. We don't see the loot the That's spit. No, it's a bit. We don't see the spit land But if we did sort of try to chart the trajectory of it looks like it hit Chris pine on his wiener area Yeah, now And then Chris pine looks down at his wiener area and he goes wow, he's like wow Well, I want to put the tiger on the table and yell at it right away Tuesday, please because Chris pines rep came out
Starting point is 00:05:04 Was like this is ridiculous. Yeah, frankly and I this is an overused phrase, but protests too much Yeah, it's like what it's ridiculous that you would even think this. Why would you think that? These two men would have any kind of beef. Why were there speed? That's ridiculous and it's just like just say no So many words and then Harold came out and he was like, yeah I flew to Venice to spit on Chris pine, but I gave it a tone of voice That I may be projecting my own sort of Insecurities onto it because he may have very well said. Yeah, I I flew to Venice to Spit on like if I knew that I would have that opportunity
Starting point is 00:05:41 To spit on Star Trek's Chris pine. I would fly to Venice for that on the gray man's Chris pine. Hell, yeah I'd spit on him I'm saying if it was consensual because everyone saw that was like, whoa, there must be beef But we don't know the relationship between these two people and that brings me to my main point Harold stylish has been famous for since he was a baby And he was the Gerber baby. He was the Gerber's baby He was the copper tone baby with the buzz out He was all the babies in that one insurance commercial that like talked about insurance
Starting point is 00:06:17 And then he was Bop he was success good He was all these famous children and then he was in one direction with Zane Which was multiple directions by the way, so like that's And that's one of Travis's funny jokes that he tells Travis has a bunch of them about one direction But anyway, all of this is to say we're building to something. We're building to my point which is until this point in his life Harold stylish has been told that it's good to for him to spit on people that people like it when he spits on them
Starting point is 00:06:53 Yeah, because of his like Tremendous fame like that. There's so many if you know He's never been chastised. Yeah, one of his actions. I'm actually really excited that it seems like he found a boundary Because now everyone's just like we love it here. Hey Harold stylish, whatever you do. Yeah Look, so that look that's great. That's long. That's great. Everything you do is great It's fine came up to him after as he's like there'll be a consequence for that and he was like, oh, what do you mean? What I don't know? Oh, I don't know this word Quants so that's when we're foreign to me when Chris pine looks down at his at his dirty lap
Starting point is 00:07:34 He is not it's not disbelief. It's thoughtful Consideration of like is this good this man is good. Is this good? He's very famous and very handsome. Is this a good thing you did to me? I don't know. He spat upon my chinos. Do I do I hate this? Do I love that? Do I love that? I think what you're seeing in Chris pines face. Yeah, break it down. There's a if you follow the logic you can watch it. You see his face Here's what he's thinking. Uh-huh. Well Huh
Starting point is 00:08:08 Someone has Harry Styles just spit on my dick. Yeah, I know I'm already captain Kirk Yeah, that was good. I like that. I don't know. I don't know how many more of those if any I'm gonna do Yeah, should I throw Harry Styles off his balcony? I haven't done. Just let me finish because I gotta walk you through Chris pines mental state this I Don't love this for obvious reasons I'm wet right now now and stick I'm wet now, and I don't like it. Okay, and everyone knows There is a certain chain of events here Where in when you look up Chris pine in the future in psychopedia
Starting point is 00:08:49 It is actor on whom's dick Harry Styles spit Yeah, I have not established so many other pillars of my identity that it wouldn't be Fairly high up. Yeah, if this continues to be the thing that everybody talks about forever, right? Interesting I don't want this to be a thing. We're like people see me and they're like low Anchorman three. Let's get Chris fighting there. So somebody can spit on it now That is a good point Justin. I don't want Chris pine doesn't want his dick referenced in comedy for a while He wants it referenced in drama, right? He's like, I'm fine if people make promise on my dick That's fine, right and then cuz it's just sort of like Chris rock right now every script he gets
Starting point is 00:09:30 Yeah, like three pages It's like and then someone hits you full force in the face Yeah, because America has been talking about that a lot and I am surprised reference at the reps for those two gentlemen did not Pull a similar gambit of like do you really think? William Willard Smith would hit Chris rocket the Oscars come on I don't know what you thought you saw the internet's just chewing its cudd and yeah, it feeds itself It's an or a Boris you see they're just Like us they are just like us they spit on each other's digs just like us was
Starting point is 00:10:08 Kidding around he was attempting to do face paint and is extremely bad at it There was a fly on Chris rocks cheek, and he was trying to help him out. There was a small fire on Chris pines balls Again and this British hero who served his country in Dunkirk He saved him at least now if you ask will Smith his favorite singer, you know that his answer is always gonna be all Harry Styles He's basically my favorite dude. Did you see what he spit on Chris pines dick? I kind of just kind of left the left the public consciousness of their well Problems are our problems. They're just like us and I love that about them and hey, you know, maybe maybe Chris pine was hungry and Harry Styles can sense that and he's trying to mama bird into his mouth and he just missed
Starting point is 00:10:56 There's so many different great possibilities for what could have happened, right? Yeah, but none of them none of them did that we know of we will know history. We'll never know Um, I will say this. Please say Harry Styles did spit on Chris pine He should be embarrassed of the bad luke he did it wasn't big enough to see It was an impressive if you're gonna, you know, if you're gonna go to town you better go to Lincoln hot Cockla really get one out there room for error Maybe that was it. Maybe there was no luke but Maybe Harold stylish is perfected like making a luke sound effect
Starting point is 00:11:34 And he like made it and then Chris pine was like I definitely have just gotten spit upon Oh, that's any was like what wow, there's no spit The way you made the sound with your mouth that I thought I'd been spit upon is this another one of your magic goofs Yeah, that you're known for it's like when you step to someone you're like, oh You flinched it was like that it was a fake and the you know, there's a there's a Cultural barrier there isn't and a quiet beauty Cultural barrier, you know what we solved it. Let's move on. It's settled. It's settled
Starting point is 00:12:12 This is an advice show We're just like you that means we like to help help you Live the best fullest life that you can if you have questions you send them to MB and BAM at maximumfund.org and we help you This is an advice show. We're ready to help you. We stand ready We're by your side ready. What was Florence Pugh doing during all this? We have I don't know why you are gripping so tightly We have moved on my son want to be part of the culture surprise My son is a year and a half old
Starting point is 00:12:46 We've been lucky to have a lot of gifts sent to him from generous family and friends However, there's one problem people keep sending in personalized piggy banks We're now at four piggy banks who are running out of places to keep these things The second piggy bank was funny after the third piggy bank. I thought surely we won't get any more But they still keep coming. We can't sell them because they have our son's full name and birth date on them Brothers, please. What do we do about all these banks? That's for piggy bank plethora. Let me say this Piggy banks these days Are bullshit
Starting point is 00:13:22 Because it put a little hole on the bottom of it that you can pop out and you can get the money The whole thing with piggy banks is you put all your You know leftover coins from the ice cream Stand and then accidentally like an arcade token or something you find that later. Yeah, you'll get that out later But and then When the need for money is so great. You must smash this beloved object so that you can get the stuff out of it So maybe this is a return
Starting point is 00:13:55 To a better time Where you you have to smash these banks Um, because times are tough out there We should smash more banks, frankly, uh than just piggy banks, but this is good practice Yeah, it's good practice for smashing banks. Here's uh, I was struck by something Justin hearing you read it so well out loud By the way, very well, right? I also want to say we ever stopped to actually like it was good delivery You did great, but the second bank was funny Made me think is this a possibility like have you talked about?
Starting point is 00:14:26 Is this a bit your family is doing? With you include it like did they like I'm not saying they got behind your back and talked about it I'm saying that like was there accidentally they got two banks, right? And you talked about it with your family and we're like, this is funny They thought oh because we got two and then there were some members of your family Perhaps that were like we'll keep the bit rolling And we'll do like a third and a fourth and you know We'll give them another one for their second birthday and they're gonna be like a piggy bank is the thing to get
Starting point is 00:14:55 This kid. Yes, because that we've talked about it before once your family is like, oh, they love uh, you know unicorns Let's get them a unicorn every time. Yeah, right? Um, you need to understand the rules of engagement um Which happened the movie and also um The real stuff because we have we have dabbled in this Where like one of you guys will get one of my beautiful bundles of joy like some
Starting point is 00:15:26 extra sloppy gack And then When you say one of you I would never do that just don't get my son's an extra sloppy gag and then you know in return It's like, oh, okay. Well, here's a very loud party robot for your children Uh, and it doesn't you can't turn it off So once once you have to step it up at least answering kind of maybe escalate it I'm thinking get them Someone who has given you a piggy bank for your child get them a piggy bank with their adult name on it
Starting point is 00:15:56 And oh my god and a date in the future But do not explain What that means what that date is that kind of seems like a threat though Griffin Yeah, maybe a little bit, huh? Or maybe it's like you'll need this money on You know July 28th 2029 or maybe Something else maybe something else happens. I don't know. I do not know I love having piggy banks around our house. Yeah, okay. I always whenever I find loose change in there I just leave them
Starting point is 00:16:32 And and put them in the girls piggy banks now a place to put change It's fantastic and it's also great because sometimes you go to the car wash, you know, like oh, I need some quarters time to Get on it. We got a big old coke bottle bank for uh for bb I got it. I got a subscription to magic tunnel. So That's not a problem for me anymore. I roll right through you have a car wash Subscription and it's called magic tunnel. Hey, mr. Green-eyed monster. Maybe you can calm down a little bit I uh do okay and my wife's a physician
Starting point is 00:17:04 So I uh who doesn't make money from that but like I do okay. And so I got a subscription to the car wash Okay, and yeah, I went with the mid-tier. Okay, but Why do you need to subscribe? Why do you need to subscribe? Why can't you just go and get your car washed when it's dirty? I don't know why you need to subscribe to it. Probably a better deal I have to assume you're gonna you're gonna you're basically Yeah, you go through the magic tunnel as much as I do you're basically losing money if you don't have a subscription Now jesson when you say the phrase when you go through the magic tunnel as much as I do
Starting point is 00:17:37 Do you know like how many and I I'm like my mind is boggled by how many different things that could be a euphemism for Yeah, yeah in this case. It's uh A clean car a clean car. Why are you letting your car get so dirty so often kids just uh love it They're just wild about oh the car wash experience the car wash experience Oh, I thought you said kids love your car and they keep running Getting their disgusting fingers like this car wash there you show up.

Let's not just gloss over this You don't have a dog. Also what you're describing can't
Starting point is 00:18:20 Possibly exist a little bit of car wash slash dinner theater for children Yeah, it's fantastic if they like a Travis. I'm sorry, but like if I don't have a dog now, but If I have a subscription To the car wash and every time I go through I could be getting a dog biscuit and I don't those costs add up Yeah, this is why this is why you're broke all the time because you don't think about Dollars and cents, you know what I mean? I got a huge garbage bag full of dog biscuits in my house I'm not even worried about coyotes because I throw that out there. That's gonna keep them busy all day long Well, it'll also turn your house into a fucking coyote
Starting point is 00:19:00 Just hang zone. It's gonna get ugly in there. I put weed in the dog biscuits Oh, that's not an okay thing to say, but go ahead coyotes. Oh, that's fine. Yeah. No, they're bad. They're gross Yeah, they kill the deer around the house. Oh, well deer are terrible. They killed my willow tree We don't need to talk. We don't have to go to okay. I you know what they hate all my sweet blackberries So I understand Um and for that they deserve death. I agree I agree they're fucking farmer john over there trying to stab peter cottontail with your pitch Peter cottontail should have stayed the fuck out of my greggers garden
Starting point is 00:19:37 Griffin, do you want me to kill the deer or kill the coyote because I gotta kill one of them? So you choose okay, the blood's on your hand It seems like the magic tunnel is where you go to to slake the thirst of your dark passenger so that the the wildlife in your neighborhood doesn't have to be kill for eating your berries or Fucked up on these crazy biscuits. There's a there is a coyote in the region right now. Just the one one Maybe probably a pack, right? They tend to do that

Yeah, you should listen to your dad out there Listen, your dad's working hard. Uh, you should listen to he's a good guy.

There's coyotes. I wish every indoor coyotes Is what I'm saying that those are called dogs Justin But I can't threaten my kids Sure, you could I can't say I can't say brush your teeth or I'm gonna get a dog
Starting point is 00:21:17 Brush your teeth or mr. Brutus is gonna pounce when you least expect it This is why do you think I have all these dog biscuits kids you think I get these if I didn't have a secret Can I ask a question because I'm a little lost. Why do you guys keep asking me about my car? We bring it up every week It's a normal thing. It scans your license plate. So you don't have to stop and Oh, you're so on the grid future tech. Yeah, that's pretty cool. I'm not Travis. I'm not just on the grid I am the kind of person that has a car wash subscription I'm on a specific point that I am 100 locatable. He's on the apex of the grid
Starting point is 00:21:56 He's got his own axis Hey, can we go to the wizard? The wizard's got to go on for us today. I love that. Hey guys, I'm having a great time This has been so glad man. I love doing this show with you guys So the wizard sent this one in via his His familiar who is a raven named dylan sent this in thank you dylan It's a wiki how and the title of the wiki how is how to moan How to moan. Oh boy Moaning tells your partner that you're turned on or feeling pleasure. Can we stop real quick?
Starting point is 00:22:25 Wait before you get into it before we start learning could travis and I or maybe all three I don't want to do it. Could we all practice our like moan and see if it gets better by the end of the article I think that's it. But yeah, we never can I put a codicell on this It's we eat it a big beef sandwich and it tastes good And this is the moan that comes after it because I do not want to expose Our listeners to okay. It's a big sandwich. Actually salacious Involving us. This is a beef sandwich satisfaction sandwich moan and this is our appropriate for your ringtone This is our big sandwich moan a real big sandwich moan
Starting point is 00:23:03 How big is the sandwich? I regret this Okay, I'll do mine first. Justin you go first is the oldest. Okay Oh Oh, that's good. That was that was actually pretty that actually felt really I feel like I've heard you make that say noise post sandwich before or it's usually when I sit down Yeah, fair. Yeah, let me see because I'm gonna do a combination of like I just tasted it and it's good Yeah, go ahead. Don't put a hat on a hat man. Just moan like you ate a big sandwich Mmm
Starting point is 00:23:37 That's not that sucked actually I hated for whatever reason I liked Justin Why was Justin's good? Is it because because Justin in an open mouth. I can try that's weird. All right. Let me try Oh worse. Oh, okay. Wait. What's wrong with me? Here we go. Oh, I'm gonna eat the big sandwich. I don't know, Trevor If you figured it out, please let me help Yeah Now Griffin was that your real big you did a bit. There's no it's impossible to judge your growth If But I like to I these are the very I actually Travis if you make that noise one more time
Starting point is 00:24:11 I'll I I'm not joking. I'll hang up the call that we're doing right. How am I supposed to get better if I don't practice Listen, we each get one more when you're done with the article fair. You too will finish the show without me Please don't okay. He will definitely definitely I'm gonna try not to but I get to be one after the fact In theory a moan is sexy and voluntary noise you moan in the heat of the moment because you're overcome by sensation from the big beefy sandwich Uh-huh. Not everyone moans naturally, but training yourself to moan can be a great way to show someone that you're enjoying yourself Training yourself to moan can be a great way to show someone you're okay Understanding the moan know that moaning is involuntary in theory a moan is a noise of passion that escapes you when you're overcome by pleasure or sensation
Starting point is 00:24:54 I'm actually my Nerves are so Like high strung right now that I need you all to not even make like Agreement moans, but Griffith. Can I ask you a question? Yeah, why do you feel like? Why do you feel like the anxiety so hot right now? Why are you so half put by it? I thought that this this is one of I'm gonna put this something else going on in your life that I don't know about It has gotten you feeling so stressed. That's what I'm asking
Starting point is 00:25:22 I'm putting this bit in a box that I have labeled things I thought would be funny But turned out to be instantly so gross that I didn't want to be associated with it any longer You're getting a I don't you're getting on me about my car wash subscription. I'll get on you about label maker Prices, I mean you're burning through this tape with these huge labels. Listen to other people moan watch watch youtube videos about how to moan Yeah, that's where they are I Guess that hey hey wiki how at least provide some search terms if that's your claim Because most of the time youtube like no no no no
Starting point is 00:26:09 Okay, don't feel pressured to moan everyone responds to intense pleasure in their way And you don't need to force yourself to moan if it doesn't come naturally to you Yes, some people are naturally very loud and dead but the moans you hear in movies or porn not go raffi Are intentionally stylized versions of reality um So that's an important one don't don't just make the sound to because you think you're supposed to make it It should be an exaltation of
Starting point is 00:26:33 joy Pleasure well now hold on wiki how article how how are you going to teach me how to make the sound? But assume I just know the right time to do it give me some pointers on timing as well You don't want to do it right at the beginning. Yeah, that's a good point. You just like zip Avoid outright faking it, of course, I do I will say that I do tend to moan when I take my bill off for the day Shoes is a good one my tight socks my rendered waste flesh can finally begin to heal Um moan softly during Foreplay moan loudly when things get intense now. That's interesting
Starting point is 00:27:19 That's a but now we're talking about like we're putting together like a dj Like playlist like you want to get the party going with a huh and then get into the like That kind of stuff how loudly once again I'm gonna need some decibels here because there is definitely a level you could hit where they'll be like whoa Okay, so let's this is where the rubber hits the road practicing your moan start by sighing start by sighing softly That's that was great guys that was great and it didn't make me feel uncomfortable Breathe in and out audibly
Starting point is 00:27:59 Sucks so fucking bad that's in it but griffin that's good because now we have like now we know what the parameter Is there sig sig fine good, but I've heard in a ways. I was Yeah, uh as your breathing intensifies as to add some voice and tone to your breath No, wait, I'm doing gorilla. I think that's the problem is it just hit me. I was doing gorilla Uh, yeah, I was doing like sort of like appalachian sort of screamscat, which was yeah, which is also pretty fun Uh add in a few I don't know who that is whenever we do that sound but it does it just turned into animal from the muppets a little bit Do you actually not know leads a corn from the song?
Starting point is 00:29:12 Oh freak on a leash I thought was falling away from me anyway try it out next time you're with a partner Please don't do this. Please. We're having fun. Don't do this. Remember that there is no right or wrong way to moan We have proven that to be categorically untrue there's there may only be like Four correct ways to moan and then an infinite spectrum Of bad and wrong ways to moan like we can also narrow down just uh like vowel sounds that are because like Is not a good one. There's bad in the moment
Starting point is 00:29:46 bad Now a lot of people don't do consonants, which is interesting if you're if you're wrapped with pleasure, it used to be like No, no, no, no, no Oh Right That's cool a sandwich I love that Have you guys watched my mode? Have you guys been watching the bear? It's great
Starting point is 00:30:20 It's about a guy and he's really stressed out about these beef sandwiches He makes but then he feeds them up and then he serves it to people and every episode has a special guest star On it and they're very famous people and then and then they'll be on that like patrick steward will be on there and he'll be like Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Be like what he's wrong with you Um, that's it for the article. I don't know. No, no, no, no, we're just getting started I mean, I can see if there's I can see if there's additional questions. There is none any comments, uh, no, it's got a 64 percent on uh
Starting point is 00:30:54 Where's that sand? We don't really cover that number very often. Where's that? Where's that get you that percentage? Well, the way the percentages work is it's out of a hundred. I mean, I guess yeah, that's true, right? It's easy to compare. Okay. Trav are you ready for trav to do his bone griffin or should I go first or um But can it be but here's my only request make it funny Okay, okay Well, we've learned a lot here. Let me think. Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna combo some things. Yeah, that I think that's probably the best idea Okay Oh, yeah

Starting point is 00:37:57 Tell wingsop to fuck off because they came out with a chicken sandwich Like just go just go ahead and put it out. No problem. You're your name is wingstop You're an infant tickling yourself with a razor. You don't know what you're doing The wingstop entered the chickens How many more how many more it's cost actual lives. I'll keep saying it till it sinks in They're offering their sandwich in the brand's 12 bold and distinct flavors Wingstop quickly revealed that customers have been constrained to a category of blend Where they're only options are plain or spicy breaded sandwich the flavor craving is real
Starting point is 00:38:36 With wingstop selling out its entire supply at 1600 us locations in a matter of days Beating out super bowl sundae transaction levels Wow key stats. Are you guys ready for this? They sold over a million chicken sandwiches in six days Is that a lot though because I don't know Yeah, I don't know either. There's a lot of facts like this I mean, it's it seems like a lot to me Like if someone said you have to eat a million chicken sandwiches in six days, I'd be like that's too many Right. Um
Starting point is 00:39:06 They sold out of this this one this one gets me They sold out of a four week supply in just six days with some restaurants wiped of supply in as little as two days I'm just gonna come out and say it. This is a new product You sent you sent them a six-day supply. Yeah Proof it. What were you facing supply? Yeah, what were you making that number on? Yes a six-day supply. That's it We sent them some Why do these places insist on bragging about their poor supply chain? Yeah, it's brutal. Also. How did you run out? It's chicken on a sandwich
Starting point is 00:39:43 Did you yeah, like you killed all the chickens you had like what happened? You didn't have a job. How did you run out? These eggs are not hatching fast enough How long does it take you to get more chickens to the restaurant if on day one it wasn't like Oh, we used up a lot of them today Send more here's another one exceeded chicken sandwich sales expectations by 300 percent That's a fucking cool way of saying you don't know what you're doing. Yeah, you don't believe in ourselves You should probably get somebody who can guess who take a bite of a sandwich and be like Yeah, they'll buy like a thousand of these. Yeah
Starting point is 00:40:23 Like you should probably hire that person to tell you The viral marketing campaign for this and i'm sure you all heard about it. It was number three trending on twitter Yeah, with all 100k free sandwich codes and giveaway called chicken sandwich split claimed it under a day now Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on a million sandwiches sold A hundred thousand of them were free seems a little inflated to me everybody seems like they're trying to boost the juice Submit of just a bit just a little bit. Also once you knew all 100,000 coupons were claimed Why weren't you like we should make more? We're probably gonna need more we've written so many chicken checks
Starting point is 00:41:04 We have gotten people are going to cash them They are going to they are literally going to come home to roost And we must be ready for them. We have put them all in one basket and i'm angry at ourselves for doing that There's so many idioms about Knowing how many chickens or birds You have on hand at any given time. There's a lot of them more than any other object Heads up sandwich if you go to wingstop.com, which by the way traffic doubled over its usual rate at wingstop.com If you go there's a big banner ad that just says heads up sandwich lovers the new chicken sandwich is sold out
Starting point is 00:41:46 Sorry, we fucked up so bad. It says but we really did we really got cucked by all you sandwich loving maniacs It's supply chain issue. We ran out of uh micro chips to put into the sandwiches And we got to wait for more to come in from overseas that's on the launch of the launch of our Wingstop chicken sandwich in 12 flavors exceeded our expectations on all fronts says disgraced ceo michael skipper Who doesn't even know if his chicken sandwich is good or not? So he only does a million of them people are wild about these things Our craveable products and viral campaign drove unprecedented Extraordinary demand for both our core guests as well as brought in a lot of new wingstop fans to the brand
Starting point is 00:42:31 But don't worry. We we just squandered all that potential by then not having any more to sell them So they were coming by any kind of goodwill and notoriety We are gaining by popularity was then crushed as someone came in on day seven of selling any product that we said Oh, it's out. No, no, we don't have any more. We didn't think it might like chicken and bread Thanks to strong trusted relationships with supplier partners We anticipate having chicken sandwich supply back at restaurants soon So fans and new guests alike can get their hands on this new favorite chicken sandwich So you can really capitalize on this moment two weeks later. Yeah, they can prey upon our weakness
Starting point is 00:43:14 Uh chicken sandwich seekers can be alerted of restocks by signing up for wingstops. Oh my god Get out of the town. Can you imagine my wife asked me every time I get an email and it makes the little emails So there she's just like just being curious to take an interest in my life. Who's that? And I would have to say like, oh good Oh, I can't fucking talk to you right now. I have to get the you already halfway out the door Now, you don't have any shoes on. What are you doing? I don't care. You don't understand chicken sandwich seekers can be alerted to restocks by signing up for wingstops digital database where once back it can be purchased at a compelling value of 549 for an a la carte sandwich with a dip
Starting point is 00:43:56 Or 799 for the combo with fries and a drink. Hey guys Charge more You fucked up charge three times you did a six six days four weeks supply You're charging one fourth as much as you should be charge 30 30 dollars for the sandwich Yeah Or make them a quarter smaller like there's the one quarter the size sandwiches. These are sliders now sliders Their sliders were cutting me. I heard there was one restaurant where the demand was so bad That they started cutting the chicken sandwiches
Starting point is 00:44:30 And they were charging people full price But they cut the chicken sandwiches half them They ran out of halves and they started cutting them into force and then they realized wait a minute We've passed out many more sandwiches Then we should have and they went back to the back and there was more wedges of chicken sandwich And they just kept cutting and they're just kept being more chicken sandwich Did you guys hear about that? That happened at wing stop
Starting point is 00:44:57 God's not dead He's at wing stop. He's at wing stop and even he can't get this fucking sandwich. No, no, no, no I do want a fucking chicken sandwich now though. Yeah, I always do that's all anybody ever wants. We cannot rekindle We cannot rekindle the flame of war. I'm We've moved on I'm a potter from bisbon Australia and I come to you the wisest of boys for advice every time. I'm a man by the way
Starting point is 00:45:29 I'm changing. Oh, when did that happen? I'm a man We're the man you say I can moan. I'm a man Every time I meet someone new and they ask me what I do I'm always met with some variation of the same line when I tell them. I'm a potter. They say Like in ghost This is something I can laugh off at first But now I find myself grinding my teeth waiting for the inevitable ha ha The you and your husband ever do the ghost thing every time I tell them what I do
Starting point is 00:45:55 Even fellow artists have asked me this Brothers, how can I tell people my profession without them thinking that I'm getting nasty with some crazy swazy fantasy? Crazy swazy fantasy is pleasurable. It's really fun. Also, should I watch ghost? Seems like a culturally relevant flick. Sorry. That's from sorry ghosts. I don't like you like that. It's weird. You did It's weird. You wouldn't check out After a while, Justin, it's a thing. You've never had this happen to you where like someone's like, oh, you love it I'm like, yeah, I haven't seen it, right? And it's just like become a thing like I've never seen avatar the avatar movie with the blue people
Starting point is 00:46:37 Never seen it not like because I'm opposed to watching it. I just have it and at this point What's the right time? You should feel happy that we don't have a patreon because if we had a patreon You definitely would have watched that movie by now. That's probably I definitely would have made you do Like a a commentary track to avatar to this potter. Perhaps get it perhaps. No, I would never watch that again Uh, the tv show great movie I wow travel a bold brave Dance at the last air bender movie
Starting point is 00:47:10 Six Wow, I can't believe he said it. I said it. That's right. Welcome to bold takes Um, I would say to uh the potter maybe get ahead of it and say yes I'm a potter and I often do that ghost thing with my husband. Sometimes I just do it with a ghost Nice to meet you. Oh, that could be fun. Yeah, you could also say no I don't it's actually pretty hard to stabilize
Starting point is 00:47:39 Some some some clay you just threw down a wheel when someone is trying to Spoon you. Yeah, sort of sitting up Spectrally, like I don't know if you guys have ever tried to to to spin that good clay that good wet mud To try to make a big urn or face. It's fucking Hard you are fighting really hard the centrifugal force of of nature And trying your best to make it not look Bad or wrong and you have to you have to really be present
Starting point is 00:48:13 You if you lose concentration for even a second That thing is going to end up splatting against the wall like a big pizza pie. I've watched the throwdown. Yeah, absolutely dude And so the last thing you need is someone behind you like You smell good like Yeah, you don't need the extra when I'm doing art. I don't need the help. Thank you patrick But now maybe you could just like turn it around and they're like And you're like, yeah, no, but what about you? Do you ever fuck ghost at your job and then see That's great. I don't cut your job and tell you to fuck ghost and how to do it
Starting point is 00:48:47 And now it's a conversation. You know what I mean? Now we're making friends out here um Does your partner ever walk up behind you while you're doing someone's nails or whatever and they start spooning you in front of the customers No weird Anyways, does this person? Does this person meet famous baseball players and like so does an angel ever pick you up by the armpits? So you can jump up super high to catch a home run out of the air
Starting point is 00:49:09 No, I think but but the difference there is griff. We we have a lot of different ways of thinking about baseball For some reason they did this one wild thing in a swazy movie once and it's all anybody knows about pottery Yeah, we need to get more Pottery references out there in society the problem is i'm thinking about a pottery based movie And I made myself bored Like just with a single thought and i'm not saying that pottery is boring I'm saying that it's watching pottery is boring pottery is boring. Oh, here's how you do a huge pottery movie Yeah, and you add in like a beefy sexy partner that comes over and sits behind them and oh fuck
Starting point is 00:49:52 No, I did it again. I tried you made a sexy ghost movie. It is really sexy when people do that. What if instead of a ghost? It's a mummy Oh Now that's gonna be a problem because it's gonna get the bandage is real dirty Well, the bandage is gonna get stuck to the vase and it's gonna unwrap the mummy He's gonna spin around really really fast and turn into just skeleton bones And then the bones are gonna collapse and then you turn to the camera and say no bones about it That's right. That would actually be a good way of ending the conversation if you're just like
Starting point is 00:50:24 No, but here's a No, but I am horny for mummies If you're curious Now what if it was a vampire and they're doing it and they're already in a position to bite that neck, right? So as you're doing it together, they're also draining you and then they pass out and the pot falls off and breaks And then the vampire says well this sucks, right and then it's like then just and you do one now I don't actually understand the Okay, so I'll give you another example a Frankenstein monster comes up behind you
Starting point is 00:50:53 And he and he just tries to do it but he Squishes it and then like it rips is like one of his zombie arms off and throws it across the room And he's like, hey, can you give me a hand? Oh, that's so that's the construction of the joke just in a few now You can do one because I know you know other monsters. It's a mummy I did a mummy one. We've done mummy vampire and a Frankenstein monster. I didn't want to do a different mummy one though I'm okay. Okay. We'll try. We'll see it. It's like a reboot Of the mummy. Oh sure. This is the mummy too. Okay. No, it's a reboot of the mummy. Oh different. He's like Tom Cruise
Starting point is 00:51:27 He's helping um who's in a reboot Probably runimara and yeah, oh my god, Justin. That was really good actually. Yeah, this is a good pull That is who would be in the ghost reboot. That's exactly who would be in He's doing it for like a long time and then he's like, um, can we wrap this up? Oh, that's pretty good. That's good. But it's something has to happen to him violent Some violent But then she's like
Starting point is 00:51:55 You know how runimara always talks and she's like sure Yeah, jams is like what end of his thing into the pottery wheel? He starts Runimara wraps his dick and And into the pottery and it starts spinning but then it's spinning him around right? He's it's spinning the mummy around and peeling off his wrapping. It's just bones Okay, they fall now it's a skellington and then he's like and then she's like well that was a boner wasn't it? Wait, she does two different voices in the movie and two different puns She's possessed by Helen Mirren's ghost because it's teaching the all right. All right. All right. All right. Okay
Starting point is 00:52:34 I love so you knew that Matthew McConaughey plays the mummy Okay, I knew it. You guessed that already griff. Yeah, okay now a werewolf comes in Yeah, the werewolf sits behind there and they're doing it and then it stops and she's like what happened? He goes I oh, I just had two paws So a cyborg a cyborg comes in and immediately crushes the face as soon as he touches it and He looks and he looks at me. He's like this this mega bites Oh, that's very good
Starting point is 00:53:12 Now what would it be if a dollette came in? Um, he would he would come in and hold on let me think of a funny joke Okay, give him a minute. Justin. Just back off. Okay, give me a second Justin just calm down. He's thinking I can see it on his face. He's got it. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Here it comes Oh, here it comes. Oh, yeah Here it comes, baby Um, so he would come in and he would he doesn't have the arm, he doesn't have arms or hands.
Starting point is 00:53:44 And so he would probably just look at it and he would be like, such beauty does not compute, beep boop boop, and then his shell explodes and the dog man inside of that pilot's it pops out and like smashes through a window and runs off and then Doctor Who shows up and he has a gun and he runs into the room and he's like, which way did he go?
Starting point is 00:54:12 And then she's like, the dog man ran out the window and you see him go to the window and just like fire off a few rounds and then he looks back and he's like, I got it. And then he comes up behind Rooney Mara and he sets the, he's first off, he sets the gun down. And then he is like, and let's try this again, but will use some of my space clay
Starting point is 00:54:37 and he sets down space clay on the wheel. And when it spends this time, it doesn't just make a vase, it makes, instead of just making a vase, it makes a mirror, a little mirror. And when you look inside of it, you see the moment of your death. And this is my new movie, Ghost. I can't wait, hold on.
Starting point is 00:55:07 You've lost it, you've lost it and we've lost it. And by it, I mean the time that we had a lot. Darth Vader comes in. I really appreciate you for that. How many hands are on the mirror at this point, Griffin? It's not a mirror anymore, I went back to being a vase. Oh, okay, cool. This is our podcast and we very much appreciate you
