Episode Date: October 16, 2023

It’s the closest we’ll ever get to making our dad proud, live from the sports-themed WaMu theater in Seattle, WA. Join us as we learn more about cool French stuff, famous internet cats, and Griffin’s misconceptions about rodeo clowns. Suggested talking points: Killability, Swizz Beats is Holding You Back, Bone-Ruggedness, Costume of the Nose, Good Eye It’s From France, You Wouldn’t Download an Aquarium Fish Reproductive Freedom for All: https://www.prochoiceamerica.org/

The McElroy brothers are not experts. And their advice should never be followed. Well Travis insists he's a sex expert. My voice is never broken on that part before. Sex expert. But if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it. Also, this show is for kids which I only mentioned. So the babies out there will know how cool they are for listening.

What's up, you cool baby! That's the side of something beautiful. A small acquaintance has blossomed, it's rapid, into a 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 like It's better, it's better with you My life, it's better with you My life, it's better, it's better with you This is true, it's better, it's better with you

My life, it's better with you Hello everybody and welcome my brother, my brother, me and my brother for the modern era. I'm here to host my brother Justin McElroy. I'm here to host my brother, Mr. Seattle, Travis McElroy. And I am sweet baby brother, 30 under 30, media luminary, Navy, lieutenant, I forgot my rank, Griffith McAroy. I gotta keep, we haven't done a show in a seaside town and a while, I gotta keep my periphery sorta in check to just be sure that.

Always on call. I love it out west. Philip can breathe outchecked. Just be sure that. Always on call. I love it, I'll ask. Felt like a breathe out of here. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Room to grow, mind some gold. Ever expanding. This is Room to Settle here in Seattle.

Okay. This is a sports themed theater. I would call that. Sports themed theater. There's a lot of sports themed sports themed theater. I would close that. Sports themed theater. There's a lot of sports theme in this theater. I think it's a- I'm feeling a lot of sports theme in this theater tonight. I think it's the closest that has gotten to being like

really proud, not like. Yeah. Yeah. And it's like, because we had a jersey with our name on it and that had to be the odds against that are just astounding. And we didn't pay for it or anything. Yeah, they just did it. It was cool. I was explaining to them backstage the

concept of the 12th man. Being that your football theater. It was designed in such a sonically unpleasant way that it is meant to be very frightening to the other football teams that come to visit you, which seems, if I'm being honest with you, Seattle, a little rude. There you are. But guests, yeah, football, Football second, their hospitality first. That is the Seattle motto. Here's what I love. Football second, hospitality first.

What that implies, Griffith, is that the home team loves it, has just been so bathed in this unpleasant sound that when they go to other stadiums, they're like, it's really quiet. So like they're setting themselves up like, nah, I can just hear my own thoughts. I'm every time I get hit, I hear the bones crunching. I hate this. Could you guys yell a lot?

Ha ha ha. It is so nice here though, weather wise, I realize today it doesn't get nice like this ever on the East Coast. It's a different kind of nice where you must be very hard on you people coming to the East Coast with your delicate constitutions. It's you. You've been babyed by this beautiful air.

It's so clean. If I walk, I went on a walk today. What? Whoa. And when I got to a point where there were stairs I did not abandon the walk That's how nice the weather was I just did it. I saw But halfway up I saw a scooter just like cast aside on the ground So I said no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no But that's where I'm at is done. I'm an island up this way, just so unnecessary. I like to get a little juice going in the crowd. A little bit of hostility. You want the fourth brother on stage tonight.

Yeah, we have constructed this place so that your sound is echoed back at us. That's in a really unpleasant way. So that our enemies will be scared of you. Our podcasted enemies. And the other side of the theater, Smart List is putting on a show. Yeah. We're amp versus the amping Smart List.

And we need you all to scare this shit out of them, but not us. So everyone, turn around and face the back wall. No, don't. This is an advice show. Yeah. And the way it was. If it's one thing, it's that. Has anyone in the crowd never listened to my brother, my brother, me before? Let me hear you. All right. Get out. No, stop. No, stop. We really appreciate you being here. This is a normal advice show

and people ask you, you're messing it up for me in front of them. This is my chance to start over. I plug your ears for 30 seconds. This is a normal. They don't know. This is a normal advice show where we take your questions and we turn them out, come like into wisdom. And we have after many long years, re-emerged here, much like our friends at Shlaya Miner's here in Seattle.

We're so happy to be here with you. You have sent us your queries, and we're due to ban an answer them. I'm a cold water scuba diver. Good choice. Considering. And I've been trying to get mine. That's not up to you, is it? Yeah. Right. You don't go to the water source and be like, hey, can you warm this up? God. And I'm trying to get my friend into it too. Only now, I'm kind of scared of diving because I went diving for crab recently and got hit in the chest by a harbor seal

that wasn't looking where it was going. We'll circle back to that. How do I convince my friend to get into this activity with limited air, limited visibility, exposure to dangerous animals and intense natural conditions That I am now scared of. Yeah, yeah, that's from not so safe and Puget Sound in Seattle. Was there a moment where the harvest seal was like looking at your wetsuit and was like, I think that'll buff out. We don't need to change.

We don't need to change. In shirts or anything. Look, one of my whiskers has been, and I'm not making a big fucking deal about it. I'm not making a big deal about it. And I know you're thinking, no, I haven't been drinking. I just wasn't looking where I was going. Can you, I have to imagine for you, this was the best day of your life, I cannot imagine going from the mental state of,

I'm scuba diving, so I'm already very scared, and then a big sort of piece of the marine ecosystem has smashed into my human body My brain is immediately like let's go ahead and start distributing the spirit molecule because you're a dead man I'm driven is a couple ounces lighter Yeah, 13 of the 23 grams, right? I've been just close. Right, right in the high gear. You go from, I am definitely dead to always, okay, little friends. It's okay. You made an accident, little whiskered friend.

Go on, you're beautiful. It's like that scene in Fight Club, and the seal walked away, it was like the next day. It's gonna be the best day of that diver's life. Yeah. Can we get one thing straight though, interloper? You, this seal has no obligation to you. No.

You are a trespasser. It didn't, it didn't veer into your lane. Yeah. Yeah. You weren't in line at Quiznos, and then they just, headballed. Oh, God, I'm so sorry, man. So sorry about that.

You need like 100 accessories to be able to, I'll be'm so sorry, man. So sorry about that. You need like a hundred accessories to be able to be alive there for a minute. Like, yeah, it's not your place. It's not your place. Do harbor seals eat crabs? Yeah. Okay, then maybe do some soul searching about... And listen.

Listen, like you're in line at Quiznos. You have checked out at Quiznos and are holding your sandwich. They don't come up and snatch the sandwich out of your hand. That they did. You'd love it. You would not. You put that on TikTok and you're famous now. And also I want to say this. Listen. This is the worst quiz nose in my neighborhood. Every time I order the seals play with them in a very dirty way and then eat the sandwiches. I've never received a sandwich for this quiz those. 3 out of 5 stars. Yeah. Also, sorry, I know it sounds, this is going to sound like I'm

dunking on you, but it's because my pulse is a regular, but regular tempo right now. I would never scuba dive because I am what one might call coward. And I love that it took being head-blooded in the stern of bioharmorous for you to be like, maybe this isn't safe, maybe? Maybe going into a substance that my body can't process through my mouth and lungs isn't safe.

I listen, okay, can we be real for a second? For just a minute. If you hear somebody beefed it scuba diving from an animal There is a part of you that's like well You know, yeah, like well Yeah, I understand that does happen doesn't it? People do it. No circumstances. Yeah, I think that's not a thing you would respond to like with what are the odds? How could it be you know the odds like one out of two? Yeah, like did that. That's not a thing you would respond to, like, with, what are the odds? Well, how could it be? You know the odds, like, one out of two.

Yeah, like, really pretty good. You also put on a lot of shit that makes you look delicious to certain marine life. Yeah, that's all I'm gonna say. I'm not gonna throw stones, but I feel like the friend is maybe you. Are you the friend who's like, maybe this isn't for me anymore. I love the idea though of, like, giving scuba diving lessons,

but you don't go in the water. Where you're like, put this on, great, you're breathing great. Go down for a while. And this is so important. Come up at the end. Come up super. I'll be waiting here with apple slices. When you are attacked by the harbor seals,

you are going to want to come up very fast. You cannot do that. I regret to inform you. I think you also stand on the pier with a loaded rifle. Ready for any harbor seals. I got you. Make sure when you come back, you do not behave like a normal harbor seal mate. You'll figure it out.

Don't mimic their behaviors please. Howdy brothers, I'm an amateur clown. I enjoy doing balloon animals and pratfalls. I even have an outfit and a little routine. The issue I'm having is with finding appropriate places to practice these skills particularly the balloon animals. I used to live with my three toddler siblings and they loved it,

but now I'm no longer regularly around kids that person I live with hates clowns. Oh, man. Is there any way to maintain this hobby without terrorizing the people around me? That's from not scary. I swear in Seattle. That's what all non-scary people say. Are you here?

All right. You know, ever since I moved in with Stephen King, I just can't do my clowning anymore. That guy hates me. Sorry, Travis. I gotta go into the joke you just made. You're suggesting that Stephen King wove such a rich tapestry of fear with it that he himself gets scared of the shit

he wrote about and it's so bad. Sorry, Griffin, let me explain. Stephen King, Stephen King when he writes his scary stories, just goes, fuck that scary. I can't even with clowns no more. No, Stephen King made he writes his scary stories just goes, fuck that scary, I can't even with clowns no more. No, Stephen King made the choice for ruin an entire career by what is it gonna be? Fuck clowns.

Yeah, but also then his publicist is like, yeah, so we got you this nice hotel. He's like, I can't, who's fucking scary, man, are you out of your mind? Woo, I mean, he's a. Who's fucking scary, man? Are you out of your mind? Woo! I mean, he's a very good writer. Yeah, sure. He wrote himself into loving the Boston Redslogged.

That's fair. I, wow. For me, I would not want, I would not want, stick with me here, a roommate who clowned at home where I also lived. Yes. But I also wouldn't want a roommate who did any kind of performance art in the room

where I also lived. Like if my roommate was a musician that performed at restaurants, table to table, that's fine. I'm eating some mac and cheese. And they come over and play some wonder walk for me. I don't like that. I need to be prepped to consume art.

Yeah, live and fire. It should never be foisted on you. You should always knowingly go into an artistic experience. That's why we hate flashmob. That's true. I think that I grew with you about, I do not want my roommate to clown at the house where I live. But the flip side to build on that,

I don't actually want them to hide it really well either, because that's worse. Like, I don't want to see a nose on the counter and they're like, it's nothing, it's nothing. Don't worry about that. That's just's a, that's just a plum. Oh, what a good plum. Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet. No, stop chewing.

I would, no. I'm fucking for sure, no. I don't think anyone could live in the same house as me and secretly clown and I wouldn't eventually get wise. You think big shoes? I really hear them clumping around. Yeah. You don't, uh, you don't wear them indoors though.

It's bad for the, this, I don't know anything about clown stuff. Wait, hold on, you don't know anything about clown stuff. Anything. The problem you're having is being an amateur clown. You gotta start charging. That's way less weird. Yeah.

If you say to people for $20, I'll be a clown there. You know, the problem is you're in a different era. There used to be a time in this country where you couldn't have a car. Here we go. Car dealership open, unless there was a clown there. You know, you couldn't open up a movie house without bringing in a clown.

Otherwise, you'll think you didn't, you know, really lay out for this event. Sure. The demand I'm sorry is just not there right now. Ooh. And you can buy our make America silly again has Jesus Christ Listen hey, yeah, and you shift it just a little bit And I don't know if this is part of the sort of cultural landscape here in Seattle But and become a rodeo clown

All of a sudden you're here when you're a rodeo clown if the roommate Because, you know, all of a sudden, when you're a rodeo clown, if the roommate can't be like, stop clowning and you're like, oh, so you want rodeo guys to die? And then you're in it. That's really, like, you don't have to rodeo clown in here. There's no bulls here. I've never been attacked by a bull. And you're like, you're welcome. You're welcome.

That's all I'm asked why. I keep the bulls away. A bull tried to get in here last week. I found so scary scary they ran away. Here's a blue animal. That's not part of my rodeo clown thing. It's something I did at Relief's stress because being a rodeo clown is terrifying.

Can we talk about rodeo clowns for a minute? Yes, we, okay. It kind of feels like maybe if we put in a little bit more mental Imagination elbow grease into the question of how can we make a bull so scared it won't kill a person? We can go up with a better one than clown. This is this is what I love about the radio clouncing area If we could get someone in like a mech suit with like bazookas like If we could dress someone up like I don't know like a lion or an elephant like bazookas, like, tch, tch, tch. If we get dressed somewhat up, like,

I don't know, like a lion or an elephant, or a bigger bull. A bigger bull. No way, I'm out of here. Well, I'm just like we didn't. Hey, look at that guy. It seems like we, a clown scared a bull once and every person alive was like, that's it.

Hey, bud. Travis and I have to step in now. The clowns don't scare the bulls. The clowns distract the bulls. They chase the clowns. The clowns don't scare the bulls. The clowns distract the bulls. They chase the clowns. The clowns don't come out like bulls. And the bulls are like, oh shit. Fuck, I just finished reading here. Stop for a second and think about what you're suggesting. No, you're right.

Now don't talk. Think about it. The bulls are right. He got him. And the clown what the clown does is they spray at the bull. Hopefully that the bull is gonna be like, oh, fuck. Let me then, let me amend. Hey, the bull just keeps killing him. I thought it was scary. I thought it would be, I'm scared of him. Why aren't the bulls?

Let me amend. I don't know, Steven. Let me amend it. I would love to amend my earlier statements that of the human sort of caricatures that one could embody that would make a bull want to kill it so bad, I would actually say we got it in one with clowns. OK, but there's not a representation of my own thoughts.

I think clowning is beautiful. If I was a bull and I saw a clown, yeah, I'd be pretty pissed off. This is what I love, though. The invention of rodeo clowns must've got like this. Yeah, man, these guys get on top of this big animal. Big animal hates it. Knocks them off. And then tries to kill them. We should stop doing it. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa ourselves what if instead we found out we get a third a third party involved go off what what is that what is that what are we looking for this third party killability that we need the ball to look at the cowboys and that was just a double-humms and go I want to kill that one why you see what the fuck is this

that get out of here are you sure we shouldn't try to scare the ball? No, that doesn't make any sense at all. Think about it. Why are we going to find a clown at this time of day? Hey, everybody. Hey. We're going to go live from New York. It's with special guests.

Woo! We have pulled from a variety of variety shows. There it is. Some musical guest introductions. Go to the first one, Paul. Please. This is Jude Law, entering Pearl Jam.

That's actually a palindrome. Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! When? So stupid. When are we going to give Jude Law his own courtroom TV show? That's Jude Law. I want it so bad now. Okay. And Pearl Jam just throw a cooking show. Okay.

Explain the game. Okay, so here's how it works. I need Justin and Griffin with this information to tell me the vibe, the attitude, the delivery of Jude Law introducing Pearl Jam, the musical guest. Fast. It's coming at you fast and hot. I think he doesn't wait for the audience to stop clapping as they come back from commercial break and he just rips it into ladies and gentlemen, Pearl Jam.

Like, okay, that's it. Ladies, I think it's a little more solemn because I'm trying to think of the error. This would be, I think it might be that one really sad when they did. Well you remember that one. So I think it's like that one sad Pearl Jam song. I think it's like not there more upbeat numbers. Ladies and gentlemen Pearl Jam. Oh that's an interesting question.

Okay roll it. Justin nailed it. Justin got it in one. That's a stunner. That's a stunner. How has Jude Law never played Sting in any thing? It sucks so bad. It's exactly Sting. Okay, next, next video. We've got Woody Harrelson, introing David Burns. Oh fuck. Hey Travis, it's tour manager Paul.

I'm going to get a new one. I'm going to get a new one. I'm going to get a new one. I'm going to get a new one. I'm going to get a new one. I'm going to get a new one. I'm going to get a new one. Okay, next, next video. We've got Woody Harrelson, introing David Burns. Oh, fuck. Hey Travis, it's Tour Manager Paul. I think it's very important to note, because this may affect their answer,

that this is young Woody Harrel. Yes, if you're... Thank you. Thank you so much, Paul, for doing the work that our brother refuses to do. Is, okay, I'm gonna take a huge shot in the dark here because this happens sometimes. I think Mr. Herald sends in a costume as he does this. Okay. See this sometimes on this segment.

Usually in the 70s and 80s. Usually in the 70s and 80s when they let you have fun on this show. Am I right, folks? Uh, Fulcaw. Back before SNL went, whoa. Whoa. Oh. Full cost to him, full mullet, apparently.

Uh, and, you know, he's, he's probably hot, like a little hot. All right, everybody. David burn. Wow, and all right, everybody. Specific phrasing. Roll the tape. Ladies and gentlemen, David Burnt. Wow!

Whatty Haleson does not give two shit so that David Burnt is there. What a surprise. I wanna take Woody and be like, listen man, I actually think there's a lot to this dude that you personally would vibe with. You're really like, it feels like somebody bullied it and then did do it like I don't want to introduce to what he did you have to we're not gonna pay you drags him out by the earlobe. I don't want to

David burn uh-oh next combo uh-oh charlie's a theron yeah introducing the black keys Charlie's a Theron. Yeah, introducing the black keys Loud screaming screaming loud so loud Ladies and gentlemen the black keys lights quiet and then it's loud. Yeah, I see okay roll it. Oh, no! No idea. Charlize will get it in post. Don't worry.

This is not the first time we've seen Charlize intro someone. For some reason and one, she's sitting on a set at a desk. And it's almost the same thing, where it seems that halfway through it, she's forgotten. Who's ever worse? The last word. halfway through it she's for God. Who's ever more? The last word. I think here's my theory. Okay.

She started in her brain to say black eyed peas. Both times. That she was like the black key. That would explain why she's laughing at the beginning because she's like, I can't fucking believe I'm about to watch the black eyed peas. But then she remembers after saying the word black. Uh-oh, it's keys. I messed up. Bummer, summer.

Okay, one last one. Okay. Robert De Niro. Oh, man. Introducing Ditty-Dirty Money at VJ Swiss Feats. I have to Travis, I feel like his only fair. If you give us, does he actually say the words featuring Swissbeats? In Gigi Duh. That's good for me man. That's good, that's good.

Oh, it is the second song. Thank you, Paul. Once again, this is the once again. Okay, can I hit you with this? Ladies and gentlemen, Dirty, dirty money featuring Swissbeats. Okay. Do it.

Did he do your money? Featuring Swiss beef. That was really good. Roll the tape. Swiss beef. Don't say it like that. Robert, look at his face at the end. I love diddy dirty money, but I could do without the Swiss the Swiss be Siga live Swiss beats

I'm never gonna win another Oscar listen Diddy dirty money swears beets is holding you back You're fine on your own Stand on the convictions of yourself, Ditty Dirty Money. Thank you, Travis. Thank you. I am 31 and am part of the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. I recently took my 14-year-old little brother roller skating and thought I would be fine because I used to be good at roller skating when I was also

14 we all did yeah, yeah It turns out my body's gotten worse at it a lot of things since then I fell on my ass I hope you didn't use language like that because you're from a bunch of children 14 year olds never heard asked before Justin now my little brother wants to go roller skating and next weekend How do I avoid embarrassing myself again and making up for all the coolest points I lost last time? That's from Ben. Hey, Tan, you're not going to make up those cool ones. You're 31.

In this case, 14. Yeah, so they didn't think you were cool before we fell down. You're already rating such a tremendous deficit. Yeah, we learned this, I would say, the hard way when we shot them in BIM-BAM TV show. This I would say the hard way when we shot them in BIM-BAM TV show We we really we really there was a lot of A lot of sort of like shooting locations on that one that we were really sort of flying by the seat of our pants So we would roll up to a venue and then like find out what it is we were doing and then do it And that was when we were like okay, this is easy

We'll just go to roll a rama and we'll do some roller skating with our friends. Not thinking about the logical question of, hey, when was the last time you roller skated? That's, damn, that's the problem. It's not that your body has gotten bad at things in 31 years. It has. Yeah, absolutely.

Virtually everything. My body's gotten bad at sleeping in 39 years. It's bad. But it's also that my guess is, you have not roller skated since you were like 14. Yeah, right? You've spent 17 years not roller skating and thought I'll be able to just do it again. Yeah top right back on That's why in the TV show. I'm always on a little sit and spin. I don't put the skate to my feet. I want to live I think we were barefoot for a lot of those shots. Hey, can I tell you the problem?

And this is advice I wish I'd give myself. I go back in time, I can tell myself one thing, you know what, tell myself, find myself eight years old, and say, a little Justin. Let's see. Yes, big guy, sir. Fall every day. Okay.

The thing is when you're a kid, you fall eight, nine, 10 times a day. No big deal. Are you still talking a little Justin? No, this is just the audience for the show. Oh, for God's sake. Okay. You fall eight, nine, 10 times a day, no big deal. Are you still talking a little Justin? No, this is just the audience. Okay, you fall 8, 9, 10 times a day, no big deal. As you get older, you keep falling, but it's less. And then eventually you don't have a lot of reasons why you would fall, right? Yeah.

The reasons that you would come up with the fall, kind of go by the wayside. Eventually you blink. It's been two or three years since you really had a good solid fall. A good tumble. Yeah. And there's no fucking way of telling how that's going to shake out. That said, if you had fallen yesterday and the day before that, just giving yourself a real good fall every day, it's never going to catch you by tomorrow. So out in the lobby, make sure you get your live lab

fall shirts. Yeah. Your fall, like no one's watching. And then, sure before you have your fall, you're good, clear way of the legal premises of this theater operating in the evening. Several months ago, I took myself a little tumble while I was dropping Henry off at school, which sucks,

because there were a lot of people there who saw me fall. Yeah, I would rather they didn't, but it was rainy and I was- I bet the fall, right? You just fell down, but an even farther fall in your son's estimations. Probably, probably. I was very just fell down, but an even farther fall in your son's estimation. Probably, probably. I was very brave about it, but I did,

as I was falling, I had, I ran the mental calculus on my last big fall, and it was a long time ago. For sure. As I was falling, I was like, I don't know what the fuck is about to happen. Like, I might die. Yeah, yeah. But what if you had fallen the day before that? Like, I might die. Yeah, yeah. But what if you had fallen the day before that?

And the day before that. And the day before that? Private? I would love to have fallen privately before I fell. A couple of praxis falls. Yeah. A man helped me up who was also dropping off his kids. And my first instinct was to slap his hand away.

As say, my son is watching. Let me stand up on my own. That's where you spin around and sleep his leg. Yeah. It was all for this. That's it. If I see someone fall down in front of their kid, you know what I'm going to do?

Fall down. So that their kid is like, oh, so it's cool to fall down. Or like there's some kind of curse happening here. I feel that it's knocking adults down, left and right. I stopped myself with my hands and wrist, and I guess elbows and I guess shoulders. All the hospital points. All of them.

And I scraped my hands up pretty bad. And then afterwards, I sort of post-gamed it in the car as I was holding napkins in my hands to stunch my Amazing blood from coming out of my body And I just couldn't stop thinking like there was probably a better way to do that. Yeah Yeah, but once again Justin's practice falls coming to play here because when you're falling if you have the way with all that wait hold on Let me twist my body around the kitty cat. If I felt every day, I could execute a fucking gene wild dog.

There won't cut. No, no, no, no, no. You guys are misunderstanding fall every day. I think you are thinking of it more like a, like a keto roll sort of like teach yourself to do safe pratfalls every day. Yeah. I'm saying you really gotta put the fucking mustard into it. Okay.

Or you're not gonna know where they're all gonna end up. You need to develop something beyond muscular sense about it. You need to just be okay with falling however. You're talking about a certain, a certain bone ruggedness. Yeah. A flexibility that only comes with the hard falls, you know. But also a bit of mental reckoning. Just let yourself go.

Just let yourself fall. No tensing up, no catching. Just absolutely. Billy Nobo. And so he got down. It's kind of like you turn into like someone from a Bethesda game that just stretches right out. Right, yeah.

That's, yeah. For sure, man, I don't want to fall down ever, ever again. Hey, one of the best parts, Dan, of being over 30, is that when someone's like, are you gonna roller skate too? You can go, no. Look at my human body. It's done getting better.

Now I'm just trying to slow down how worse it gets. Because I don't know how to break this to you. But if you are an older adult and someone's like, do you want a roller skate? And you're like, no, I'm going to rollerblade and I'm going to do tricks while I do it. That's too good. Like that's too far in the good direction.

Yeah. So you can just let the 14 year old younger brother roller skate. Yeah. And then you like pay for the arcade games or whatever. And you nailed it. You did a great job. If God wanted the ground to be wheels. Yep. Yep.

Think about it. Think about that. I will also say this. If I know anything about 14 year olds, the fact that you fell down and busted your ass is why he was like, can we do this again? Can we please, please, Samari? I wasn't filming, you got it one more time, okay? You made this like, woo!

So, this you and Samari. I will say, you could go home and practice all night long, show up the next day, not fall. You've broken the child's heart. Yeah. Go on, Griffin. Yeah? Okay, it's time.

I have another segment that we will probably use to finish off the first act here of our podcast before we take a brief intermission. This one is also quite visual. It also carries, I would say, a tremendous amount of risk for yours truly. This game is called Minion Quotes. In this game, we will show you sort of terrible Facebook memes

that boomers would post on their walls with a cartoon character on it. I have removed the cartoon character. You will read the quote of this meme that boomers would post on Facebook and try to guess who the cartoon character is featured. If my brothers can get it correct, I will post it context-free on my own personal Facebook wall, which has become, thanks to the fact that I have become the steward of this segment, a blighted hellscape. A lot of confusing inbox messages from a lot of sort of interactions with people from

my past who I never thought I'd hear from again. Can we see the first of the censored images, please, Paul? When people rob banks, they go to jail. When banks rob people, they get bonuses. Now let me say this. I have ordered these in order of how much I would care about posting them context free to my Facebook wall. This one would be frankly kind of on brand and cool for me.

I think. Here's what I would like to say. Yeah, go ahead. The first half makes complete tens yeah I've never like been watching the news or read the news paper it's like oh this bangs getting another bonus again yeah I mean banks don't get bonuses well they get bailouts a lot of sure yeah absolutely yeah but no one's ever been like hey bank good job robbing people No one's ever been like, hey bank, good job. Good job, robbing people.

Scrooge rigged up. Okay, that's interesting, but you've done this segment before to know that that is much too relevant to the copy. It's not my guess. My real guess is. Lightning McQueen. Ooh, that's cool. I love that.

That would be good. Travis, you should make these. That would be good as fuck, man. But that's not the answer. Justin, I'll let you do another one. Really? Forgot yourself, yeah. Um, okay. Um, I'm a fun. No, this one is the cat car field.

Oh, man. It seems like I hate Mondays and capitalism. But, or it seems like this little parallel he is drawing here, he actually likes it. He likes that when banks are out people, they get bonuses. And it's awesome. The system's working as intended. Wouldn't change a thing.

There's two more opportunities to further ruin my social media presence with the people we used to go to church with If you fart while wearing a thong does it whistle Okay, not in a million billion trillion years will you get this answer? Okay, if you're so certain of that, do you want to give us a hint any little breadcrum? It's a cartoon character. Come on Come on. It's a bit not funny. It's a cartoon character mostly known from a film and Also, I'm realizing the silhouette I have carved out here does look like a wiener. That was not intentional

But it is Is it is it poppy? Poppy from the trolls movie. No. All right. Okay, come on. That was so fucked up that you thought that, Justin. The hair. I'm going actually, this is crazy.

I didn't know that I had so strong feelings about this. Travis is so good at making these and you're bad at making these. That's pervert. The what you just said is pervert. This is the shape looks like Poppy's hair. Is it? It doesn't.

The costume, the see-where suit designer from the Incredibles, so I believe it's named Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna. Edna to moan. Wow. That was my next guess. Yeah. That was next in the order of, I don't want it to be on my wall. The third one, I think, would do some considerable damage.

Sex is now classified as a misdemeanor. The more you miss, demeanor you get. Okay, the more you miss, demeanor you get. There's so much about this that is absolutely puzzling. I've missed sex as a result. Okay. I don't like the amount of strategizing that is happening on the stage right now. I will say this too, sometimes I'm rooting for them to get it in this bit, because it's funny when they do get it. And it's a fun way to walk off stage, is with the energy, the high of them getting one of these, right?

That's not the case this time. I would really rather not post this one on my Facebook. Hey Griffin. Yeah. I don't want this to kind of my guess so much as it's obligatory. Okay. No, well that's not anything. No, you can't.

Can't do that, Trevor. Just say, is it a minion? No, it is not a minion. It's all up to you, Justin. Can you give me anything? Can I give you anything? It's not a minion. I will give you this, and this is incredibly generous.

It is a featured player of the minion quote segment. Don't you say a fucking word? You're on my team right now. No, it's Taz, it's gotta be Taz. Is it Taz? No, it's not Tweetie Bird. Is it Tweetie Bird yet? No, he's Taz, it's gotta be Taz. Is it Taz? No, it's not Tweetie Bird. Is it Tweetie Bird? Yes!

No, he said Taz. Yes, I got it. I got it. I said Tweetie Bird. I said Tweetie Bird. No, it's Tweetie Bird. It counts, Tweetie Bird is counts, counts, Tweetie Bird. I said it before you revealed it, Tweetie Bird, I win.

Hi, I'm Vikram Chatterjee, the CEO of Maximum Fund, and I'm here with my fellow worker owner, Marissa Flexbart, producer. This week for Co-optober, we'll be highlighting other co-ops who work in the arts. The past few years have been challenging for all kinds of creative industries. We at Max Fund believe that co-ops are better suited to meet these challenges, and there

are a lot of other companies who feel the same way. So all this week on our social media and website, we'll be sharing interviews with some of our fellow co-ops. And head to our YouTube channel Friday October 20th where I'll be talking with worker owners from defector and stocksy about their co-ops and why the model works for them. And next week is volunteer week. Learn how you can participate in that and get details on exclusive merch, our live streams and other co-optober happenings at maxmountainthon.org slash co-optober.

I'm so excited to be here.

I'm so excited to be here. I'm so excited to be here. I'm so excited to be here. I'm so excited to be here. I'm so excited to be here. I'm so excited to be here. I'm so excited to be here. I'm so excited to be here. I had lucky for you actually, because I was just in town for fragrance, convention, here, across the street. What's that called? Yeah, what's it called? Stinkfest. I put it on every year.

You plant? You put it on. It used to be about my web comic. Now it's just regular stink stuff. It's kind of evolved and grown. Yeah. I'm pretty prying in ghosts, but I'm going to ask what's the attendance like? to be about my webcomic. Now it's just regular stink stuff. It's kind of evolved and grown. Yeah, I'm pretty prying and go straight. I'm gonna ask what's the attendance like? Well, there's at least 80 every year, no problem.

Okay. The problem is you get too many people who are big in the fragrance in one room. I'd say more than that. That's the sprinklers off. It gets the health hazard sprinkler over a while. But no, this is cool. I love the, I went over a little bit to look at the

Do you still say nerds? Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is okay. Yeah, sure I don't look at the fucking nerds No Richard when you say fucking and makes it so much worse man said they said it was no, but not fucking nerds worse man. You said they said it was no but not fucking nerds. No but you guys think that we are so different like I'm this cool sexual jock and if you're not wrong. No literally no one said that you did not need to a good. You see any cool cosplay while you were there. What's this? Cool. So cosplay people wear costumes. Yeah. Every day. Yes? We all wear a costume.

Whoa, Richard. We can't blame that. Yeah, wait a minute. Yeah. Hey, Richard, don't just say that. Speak on that, please. It seemed deep for a moment. Yeah.

Well, it's like, fragrance is like a costume of the nose, right? Wow, yeah. Yeah, so your cosplaying is like a costume of the nose, right? Wow, yeah. Yeah, so your cause playing is like for most fragrance, your cause playing is like a big tree with soap on it. Mm. And Richwin, would you say doing a fake accent is like cosplay for the ears? I don't know, I've never been a big accent, guys.

So listen, you guys, there's a more overlap for us than you probably even ever think about. Okay. Overlapped between us, meet the nerds, the nerds and like people like me, cool jock type, normal types, because there is a real good subset of like fragrance about your stuff. Like, do you guys like a Deadpool? So funny. yeah, for sure. Yeah, a reference. What's not to love?

He's like a wild man. This is his fragrance, Deadpool for men. Hey, you didn't have to save a second part. Yeah, but listen, I got, there's got a lot of big fucking really nice notes. You're cousin a lot, too. What a deal. Yeah, I got, how's your, how's your, how's your,

how's your walk? I went and got permissions from the priest before they call it indulgences. So I got four cusses I can do whatever I want. I'm pretty sure you've done more than four so far. That's all right. This is, this is Woody, Muskie, Warm, Sexual, like Deadpool, yeah. There's got, I got the reviews are in on this one. This is Woody, Musky, Warm, Sexual, like Deadpool, right? Yeah.

There's God, I got the reviews are in on this one. It's seriously, does not smell how I imagine Deadpool with a smell. And I'm pleasantly surprised. Wait, this reviewer thought when they purchased it, this is going to smell like a sweaty dude in a costume. Oh, thank God. It smells clean and the musk and it is soft and sweet.

Tender almost. Thank you, Deadpool for men. Found this at Burlington on Clarice for $10. I mainly got it for the metal box. Why, what are you gonna put in it? I don't know. We, the fragrance itself smells like that temporary hair color spray.

You'll find that the Walmart during a Halloween Mixed with a shit-trust toilet spray. It does not sound like a big scent Does not sound like a panty drop regard to be honest So we found this at Hot Topic and they were kind enough to let us sample before purchase My son is a big Deadpool fan and he went with me to hot topic. Oh wait, are you reading reviews now? Someone who identifies as a Deadpool fan went on the hot topic. I thought you Richard were giving testimony No, these are actual reviews of people wrote. Okay, fantastic My it is orange blossom very faint then gone. It doesn't even smell masculine at all

It there suddenly doesn't smell anything like you think a Deadpool would smell like So this is just so you know the Deadpool fragrance big sexual Not like that bull really at all not smelling like that bull. Yeah next up. We got the web guy Yeah, Spider-Man. Spider-Man Spider-Man turn off the stink Spider-Man. Spider-Man, turn off the stink. Someone's gone. You can't. This is a big thing. You like that. You like that joke a lot. I thought I was for a gig because it smelled like a...

I bought this for... There's another... There's a review for Spider-Man. I bought this for my son, ages 5 and 1. Wow! It's perfect scent for them. It's a perfect scent for your one-year-old baby. Well, baby, I can't believe it. Let's unpack that because the perfect scent of a one-year-old baby

is like old formula and piss. Yeah, that's what they all know. Hey, you just hit the top two notes. Yeah, that's what they all know. Hey, you just hit the top two notes. Yeah, of Oda Spider-Man. It's a perfect set for them. It's boyish enough without smelling manly. This is such a relief. This is such a relief.

No one wants a baby that smells so manly. You get all intimidated. Hey, that baby just came in here. It's making me feel like a real color. The baby said I, baby said I couldn't find the car bar right there with a map. The headlight the baby. It's perfect. That baby's over there flirting with my wife and I don't think I'm allowed to say anything about it. There is a one three out the five star verified. Smell is not great. Not what other factors. Are you reviewing this product?

Oh, we know people love a mailbox. Smell is not great. Not a nice scent for kids. My kids are using it, but I don't so much like the smell. I love. I love controlling my household, yes. Bottle too big. Kids won't stop spraying this smell.

Do you all know about this guy? Yeah, sure, of course. Oh boy, he's getting v- This looks like a vape more than anything. This is from the house of Salash, right? And this is from, this is not a review of Batman Vengeance, the smell, this is the description of it.

The Batman X House of Salash, theatrical limited edition Vengeance fragrance was created to capture the crisp, old olfactory, sensorial experience of the Batman's Vindetta for Gotham's Justice. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Batman's Vindetta for Gotham's justice. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Batman's Vindetta for Gotham's justice? It smells like this.

It smells like this thing you said. When we put this scent together, we said, make sure that it smells like Batman's Vindetta for Gotham justice. Yes, and that's what it smells like with a fresh, old, big, sexual, panty dropper, just like Batman himself. Gross. Yeah, I don't write the descriptions, man. I'm just telling you how it smells. It says that? Well, it implies. There's a long tradition of this Batman infregulance. This is not new. Like, there's one that was made a while ago by Batman begins you know

about this guy oh wow that looks right the review on this one is way too mature for my five-year-old to pull off but it's here hey folks everybody let you there's an ad for it too I want to show it's so big it's so big it's the size of an Nintendo 64 that can't that't, that's why I'm supply. It looks like the model is looking for the expiration date on the bottom of the bottom. There's still so much left. Is it still good?

I don't know how wide, didn't know I'd love to do more. If Batman's in the background, I'm like, that smells so bad. I'm gonna push that, man. Get it out. Iron man, you know about it? No. Big, sexual, lots of great notes.

In this one, the reviews are in too. This one says here, some ended up on my hand. And as soon as I got home, my dogs came over and started sniffing my hand. One of them actually coughed a few times and they both ran away from me. This is the review for Iron Man fragrance. The dogs smell this. Not so nice for them. They don't like it. Dog lick the bottle but they don't like this. It seems.

Doesn't seem very good. On here is cinnamon fresh. It's just green spicy powdery. Dogs love all that shit, man. I don't get it. And the woodedar. What's wrong with your picky dogs? Hey, hey, yeah, yeah, Richard. We all like the minions. Yeah, man. Fuck how he do This one is There's a review's are in on this minute minions fragrance the bottle is simple and stylish well now this minion's fragrance, the bottle is simple and stylish. Well, now...

Yeah, it doesn't look like any bottles I've got lying around the house. It's so swallowable. That's my problem with it. I want to find an orifice that fits him. Look at it. Yeah, he's ready. Here's, okay, okay, can I say? We're gonna breeze past that one, Rich.

I, banana. I, hmm, that's good. I know that's funny, man. I've never once in my entire life looked at a minion on screen and print anything and thought, I bet that smells great. I bet that's a good smell. I want to smell like that little dick dog. You probably wouldn't like our next reviewer who said,

smell this on my man yesterday and I was obsessed. Smell this on my man. Babe, babe, babe, babe, you are a minions. You know you're driving us a little bit wild with that. Hey, next time we're minions and nothing else. We have the kids tonight. Why would you wear minions? You know what it does to me

The dogs are screaming at the top of their lungs. My panties drops so hard they smash through the floor Minions Who lives in the pineapple under the sea on a next fragrance? Superhero like this. It doesn't all have a beard hero. You're like sponge Bob square pants. Yeah, he's cool. He's an anime Yeah On the first spray the fragrance opens with a zesty and refreshing combination of citrus notes Reminiscent of the salty sea breeze from sponge Bob's underwater world Let me say this of all the characters we've seen so far if you were to to tell me which one of these has a distinct smell, I would say our friend's

bunch, Bob, who lives in the sea. The lemon and the... But I've never smelled the ocean air and thought, ah, citrus. I've never smelled a sponge and gone, good. As a hard-nots unfold, the life of blend of pineapple and marshmallow marches, paying homage to the iconic crusty crab pineapple under the sea. The sweetness is balanced by hits of oceanic florals, which harmoniously represent the unique characters and friendships that define the show.

This is not the company that made this, right? This is somebody who will spray it. I mean, like, this is fucking the exact right SpongeBob. Exactly, like every part of this is like watching the cartoon. Did you say the Cressy crab pineapple under the sea? So it says here, it draws parallels to the cherry, the dried down of fragrance unveils a warm and comforting base of sandalwood, drawing parallels to the cherished moments of sponge bubs enduring optimism

and is unwavering friendship with Patrick. It's the smell of sea doors. Yeah, you know what that sandalwood reminds of young sponge bubs, an ending of positivity. And I also friendship. Yeah, you know what that Santa would reminds of you? Splendida's unending Positiveity and I also friendship. I got just one more quick you guys also like a Star Wars hell. Yeah, yeah I know about this that Star Wars the fragrance you smell exactly like it. There's only one problem for this There's only one review for this that I look up and he says this I like this and I think it's similar to Wale Coyote

by Looney Thunes. Can I say? So I had to go to the source, right? Now that's a stylish ass bottle. I would definitely spray that on me, no questions asked. Why did they put a stormtrooper on there? Yeah. Why did they decide that that was what they're gonna lead with?

Once again, I have to assume some of the smelliest of all like Star Wars. They probably smell fine Of all the Star Wars. Yeah, they probably smell fine. Yeah, you think that the Struntroober Genetically engineer clone troopers. I would genetically engineer this thing out of them Good no way they stink. Yeah, you want to put Java on there? You fucking pervert Where those smell like Darth Vader? Yes, all right. I'd rather smell like Darth Vader. I bet he smells fantastic.

Yeah, listen. Probably smells like smoke. This is about Wiley Kayote. See their Korean, their Antonka beans are quite easy to find. The rest of the notes could also be part of the mix. But Vanilla is the least prominent one, in my opinion. I didn't send any Vanilla at all. And then the last server on this one,

and I guess this applied to Star Wars 2 because it's exactly like a Wiley Kiley by Loonie Toans. The last server says this, I'm saving it for my baby son. He's old enough to know what scent is. He is only six months old. Is that from... Wait, oh, wait till he's won. and I'm so excited to be able to get a chance to see all the enough to know what cent is. He is only six months old.

Is that from... wait. Oh, wait till he's won. It's from... and the reviewers name was Michael Stink. Wait a minute. Yeah, but anyway, they're saving a further baby. That's all to the next town to save another life.

So we're going to take some questions from the audience. We will handle it from there. You okay, Jews? You miss Richard again, my man. Yeah, damn it. Tell me troubles. Yeah, you know me. It happens. Hello Hello, hi, I'm a Michael from section a that's probably irrelevant Oh, that Michael hey Michael. I've heard a lot of good things Yeah, some like buzz going around about Michael from section a Been working on that so with the end of this month, there's a theater in Seattle. I was on a reality TV show when I was a child. Yeah.

Yeah, which one? Kid nation. Yeah. Yeah, we got this question backstage. I was like, oh, that's interesting. I googled your name. And then I was like, this is going to make it on the show. Yes, so a theater is going to stream like a truncated version of the show.

That's amazing. And surprising. For a variety of reasons. They reached out to me on LinkedIn. Okay. Do you have Kid Nation, sorry, survivor on your LinkedIn page? Some of the film crew was from Survivor. I do, because...

Yeah, why not? Trying to entice some attention. Fuck yeah, hey! That's what LinkedIn is for! Yeah, you're gonna go on LinkedIn to blind. I don't care what job someone's hiring for. If they see on the CV, oh, also, I was on Kid Nation. That's going to get some points.

Wow, yeah, that's the graphic, all right. Yes, so the question is, I suppose, well, I said, do I go? I feel like the answer to that is pretty clear. Yeah, yeah. And what capacity do I go? And what capacity are you asking if you like demand that there's a special seat on the stage for you that you can watch the audience's reactions

to all of your great kidnation moments? I'll put it this way. They basically asked if I would be there. And when I said, yeah, I would go. They said, how do you want to show up? Oh, okay. Michael Michael Michael. Did they ask, would you please come to it?

Or did they ask, are you gonna be there? Are they worried you're gonna be there going? That's not how it happens. Did you, were you a sort of Johnny Fair play, Bill, like a heel of Kidnation? Yeah, how was your edit, would you say? Extremely milk toast. Milk toast, okay.

So you weren't one of, and it probably is disappointing to be on Kidnation and have it reduced to this anytime people talk about it, but you weren't the poisoner or poison E of Kid Nation, correct? Fantastic, that's great. This bit would have got really uncomfortable super duper fast if the answer was yes to either of those. Do you like, do you have good vibes when you think about that experience? How's your headspace with it? Absolutely. Yeah, just go. It's your whole person.

There's a small part of it, but you know, they'll be thrilled for everybody and probably thrilled for you too. I think we have a hoot. Now, can you bust through the screen like the Hulk? Because that will be fucking purple rose the chiro just like, and he's here to, you know, to main like, drop that on him, maybe Michael? Unless you know what I mean like drop that on maybe Michael unless concerned about what I do after my entrance. If there was a good entrance. You're gonna be

carried in on a litter by several small children. Yeah. Yeah. This is yeah. This is a Dalton nation now. Look at this large child Michael has become. I have ascended. God I mean we serve at the pleasure of this giant child. If I not a joke if I lived in this city I would go to this and I would I personally would want a Q&A with as many members of people involved with Kid Nation as I possibly could. I'm someone with a deep, deep, deep fascination with reality television programming and so that would be a great service you would provide to specifically people like myself. When is this thing?

Because if it's tomorrow, I might be able to actually make them. End of the month. End of the month. What would be that? No, no. So I would say share as much with. What will be that? No, no. So I would say share as much with... Yeah, what theater?

Michael blasted out. The beacon theater. The beacon theater. Be there. Michael's gonna be doing paid signings. Did you have to do an... Let Michael sign your kids. Did you have to sign an NDA when you participated in Kidnation?

I'm sure it's lapsed by now. Right, yeah, it has to have been. And also, how cool would it be to be sued by Kidnation? Yeah. The sovereign state of Kidnation. Does that help? Tremendous. It's such a honor to meet you.

Thank you for your bravery. Cheers. Hello. Hello. Hi, I'm Indra and he they. Hey, hello. So I really like fish in like a food way. Yeah.

Not a romantic way. And I'm kidding. I heard people mid-woo get disappointed like, woo! I mean, if there's any fish in the crowd, it's possible. Are you the harbor seal that tackled the... I signed an NDA. I can't talk about that too It's possible to like fish in two ways by doing sure I keep fish and I eat fish not the same one Right sure there is not a like you're being a real bully get over here. So what okay? So you like fish? I really like eating fish. Okay, my favorite types of food

I'm going to an aquarium tomorrow. Yeah, right. You see the Adela Aquarium? Yeah, that one's specifically. Yeah, that's a great one. I have a history of freaking people out with the way that I like to eat fish, the sort of like. Just like reaching to the tank and grab them? Yeah, she's doing a heat clip like,

oh, and then just bones come out. How do you eat fish, yes? Warrally. and just bones come out. How do you eat fish, yes? Where really? Not like that. You introduce the idea of eating as we are. Yeah, you're a problem now. You have to fix it. Andrid, we didn't assume you eat.

Please, go ahead. So it's specifically my enthusiasm when I get asked to eat fish. Way back in the day, I used to visit aquariums a lot in like Oklahoma and everything. And every time I went to an aquarium, I would go, I would admire the beautiful, beautiful sea life, just admire oceans and everything.

Yeah. Immediately after, I would start demanding seafood. Yeah, okay, now listen. Yeah, Indrin, this is something that is maybe unknown trivia about us. We have been to every aquarium in this nation of ours because when we travel with our kids, that's like the go-to thing for us.

Is that pretty much any kid will go look at some fish for a couple hours. And so I feel like I can say pretty definitively that across the street from every major aquarium in the country is a seafood restaurant. With 100%, 100%. 100% 100%. There's always one.

You can eat fish for fun. When you think about fish, at least ocean fish, right? They're literally brining themselves for you. Amazing, very, very convenient. Right? They're ready for the cooking. This is true. And listen, fish get old.

No. I'm not suggesting you would never eat an aquarium fish. You wouldn't steal a car. Listen. Listen. But there is something deep in our DNA in our hind brain that when we see a bunch of fish at an aquarium You start to think like damn it would be good Can I just say this is why there was a sliding scale

Between going to a seafood restaurant and seeing aquarium full of lobst, and inherently knowing what that deal is. And then on the other side of that spectrum is going to an aquarium and knowing you're not allowed to eat any of those. And somewhere in between there is a tipping point where you think, well, those are the fish for eaters. Yeah. But it tips right over.

This is why I had to start going to Donisor Boom Museums. It got too expensive. What do they taste like? I barely even stopped a chew. I will say that sometimes when you're at an aquarium, you see a big prehistoric fucking looking fish that has teeth that look like human teeth, but bigger than my teeth. I see that, I say, I do not want to eat fish today. Because some fish look like that. Like a real honest to God, Mr. Limfit situation.

Hey, while you're in the neighborhood, there's a wild 40 ride we went on yesterday over there. Wings over washing. Y'all done that? Y'all got to check that shit out there. It's pretty good. That was like both help and like a bonus tip. Yes. We kicked ass. Hey guys, great fuck. Yeah, nice, nice job, guys. Good. Thank you. Is that good? We know it's good. We did it. We already, yeah, we did it. Thank you. Thank you. Enjoy your fish. Hello. Hi, my name is Abby. Hi, Abby. So I just got back from a Mediterranean cruise like two weeks ago. Cool. And while I was there, I got this fancy painting from niece France. OK.

But I'm a little afraid if I like hanging up in my apartment and people ask about it, it's going to come off really to pretentious like I was summering in France. Yeah. Yeah. OK. Yeah. First of all, what's the painting of?

It's a cat in a garden. Oh, cool. Cool. Cool. Yeah. Can I say, to flip it around? If I went over to someone's house, and I worked up the courage to ask about a painting on the wall, and the response was, good eye.

I bought that in front. I'd be like, yes. Yes. Perhaps you've detected a certain Parisian flair. Imagine my delight at meeting another connoisseur. The other side of that is you go up to someone's heart and be like, that's cool. And then they say, trick you, that's a Scarface poster from Target. That read the plaque next to it.

You're in lieu. I believe you'll find that's a Scarface poster. Right next to it. Yeah, it says right there. It does say Scarface poster Bozer brand disease tape to wall Yeah, there's be proud of your Parisian art Yeah, do you have other stuff from France around? I mean I travel a lot so I have a lot of stuff especially from Japan and stuff

I have a lot of stuff, especially from Japan and stuff like that. That's cool. That's cool. That would be weird if you didn't have something from France. Don't you think a little bit if people pay man and you didn't have it? If I went there and I was like, it's all overrated. Yeah. Hey Abby, go even further. Remove everything else from your living room except the painting.

And when someone comes in they're like, what's the deal with the painting? Like, oh, good eye. It's from France. It's from France. It's from France. Yeah, I noticed you scrolled, it's from France and Javier on the wall next to it. Don't you rent? Yeah, I rent.

Why? Yeah, but I don't rent that painting. I bought it in France. I'm an amateur docent. It's cool. Smuggled that baby over. In a box, label painting. You need to get more things from France. That's the problem.

If you were the person that has all kinds of stuff from France, the painting wouldn't even make a blip. But right now, it's very like, it's ostentatiously French and it's standing out to you. You just need some more French stuff to balance it out. Easy. How much French stuff before it's like, oh man, every holiday. He got it.

Yeah, eight, eight things from France. Eight things, every eight, everything. Welcome to my very niche escape room. Yeah. You need to go through my home and find the eight things from France. And I see you eyeballing the painting. Good eye. Good eye, good eye.

You've got a certain barrage and flare. Does that help? Sure, I guess I have to go back to France. Yeah, more friends up. Does that help? Yes, thank you so much. You're welcome. Thank you. Hello. Hi, I'm Sydney Sheeher.

Hello. I have a cat question. Hi, she. Hello. I have a cat question. OK. So my family has a very famous cat. My dad specifically made keyboard cat. Now hold on. I'm not moving. No, no, I know.

Because I Googled your name when you said this question. And the verb made is wild. Is it made as in the way that a promoter might say to their boxer, I made you, kid, not I created this cat. Well if you pay for like $8,000 of cat piano lessons, I say, okay, yeah, you didn't think the cat was really playing did you Gryff? First the first the bull thing and now this huh? I'm my I'm my heart's break it over here

So you know keyboard cat. Yeah technically we're Are they cool in real life? So you know keyboard cat. Yeah, technically we're sick. Are they cool in real life? So good hang, right? This must be a, and I don't want to get morose, but a sort of dread pirate robert situation, because if memory serves keyboard cat popped up

in like 1998, and cats don't usually kick it for that. Well, when you are a fan of that. No, no, Travis shut the fuck up a leg Grvin as if keyboard cat is dead He's getting there, but I just let him get there. Well, I'm not kidding. He's been reincarnated twice. Okay Kidding again the word choices It's so you you have keyboard cap the next next generation so aged is this meme okay? The question is though when I meet people I don't know when to tell them right away

Well because I am Sydney you know keyboard cat died twice Can't keep him down. Hi my name is Sydney. I watch keyboard cat died twice Seven more to go. Then I'll finally be able to be free. And Seoul can go to heaven. I think any amount of, okay, I see your problem here, because any amount of, yeah, but any amount of time you aren't telling people that you have Keyboard Cat is the amount of time they aren't telling people that you have keyboard cat is the amount of time they're gonna be like How in the fuck did you not tell me that?

Exactly because there's a wrong answer to this and it's lower than I think a lot of people expect it because if I was friends with someone and after a month of friendship They're like oh and by the way my dad made a keyboard cat. I would be like, that sucks. I'm just now finding out about this. Yes. We have the same manager as Grumpy Cat. That's not the least surprising thing I've heard all day. Is there a way you can set it up? Oh, yes, it's really nice to meet you. I like to play this ice raker game, where we list off

if our parents have ever escalated a cat, so a level of fame one could barely conceive. I will tell you one good answer to this and that is that you have a truly killer ace card to play when you do two truths in a lie. Yeah. That's normally how it comes out. My dad created keyboard cat and something else true and my favorite color is green. And they're like, well, clearly it's the caffeine. You're like, no, jokes on you. I like blue. I mean, that's what I do.

But you can't wait a while. Can you win barbets? Icebreaker game to casually come up in a human interaction. Yeah. Yeah, that's, I mean, you gotta start going to church, Sidney. Now Griffin does tell everybody that, that asks for his advice, that's always how he wraps up. Just saying, new Sunday school, a lot of icebreaker games are gonna start flying. If you need some answers, sometimes we all lose our way a little bit and Griffin thinks you can find your path in.

You know, it's a church again. When a cat dies. No. There's a grieving process and sometimes it's hard to find your way out. You don't get out with that. Jesus Christ. Jesus. Jesus was kind of the original meme when you think about it.

Jesus was sort of the first keyboard cat. Does that help? Oh, immensely. Oh, good. I'm glad. It's so glad. My dad made that. That's good shit.

Paul painted that one real quick. Hey, y'all, thank you so much. This has been an absolute delight. You're such a fun city to be in. We love doing shows here. People always say that when they do shows, but we really love it, see ya. Thank you so much.
