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 mention only so the babies out there will know how cool they are for listening. What's up, you cool baby? One, two, three, four! It's the start of something beautiful A small acquaintance has blossomed It's ripened 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 Life, ah ah ah It's better, it's better with you My life, ah ah ah It's better, it's better with you This is true, ah ah ah It's better, it's better with two My life, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ahroi, what up, Trav Nation? Do you guys ever feel like nobody understands the pressure that it

requires to be Hollywood It Boys carrying the immeasurable burden of naming the year? Powerful Hollywood It Boys and powerful internet influencers. Yes. Griffin, let me answer your question with a question. Yeah. Do you ever feel like a plastic bag drifting through the wind wanting to start again? I do, and not like the sexy kind from American Beauty.

No. Just a normal raggedy ass. Not a totally fuckable plastic bag. Listen. Like just a raggedy ass. Last night we were going to bed and I was like, I'm gonna stay up and prep some stuff, prep some stuff for this episode. Just prep a little bit.

Rachel was surprised that I would do that, that I would voluntarily work in the evening on this. And so she was surprised and she just leaned in and she said, 20 funny guys, be yourself. And that was really sweet, but also the pressure, like that obviously can't be it. The pressure is so much, guys. I've gotten so many texts from so many different,

huge, multi-hyphenate talents that are asking, like, where is it? Where's my name? I need an answer. Where's it at? Is it in there? I've had my wife, my kid, one of my kids, you know what I mean? Like everyone is demanding. Which bothers you more,

one of your kids asking you or the other one not? It's equal. It's exactly equal. It's like my kids don't even know what I'm doing. They care about Fungalore. They love Fungalore. Let me tell you, can I talk about where my heart's at?

I love Fungalore. We discussed 20 Fungalive. I think we can keep that branch, a branch universe. I think that can be our question of, but where's fungalore? Cause we love him. I don't want to kill him. We can just say 20 fungalive,

but that's not the name of the year. Here's, here's what's interesting about fungalore. Can I speak on fungalore? Please, he's so strong. Before we get into it, I'd like to say a bit about fungalore. The weird thing about fungalore is it was, when we did it, I thought the worst we'd ever done.

The worst ever. I thought it was the worst job that we had done. And I thought the rea- Well, we said as much, Travis. This isn't a- No, no, no, no, no. It's hard sometimes to tell what the kayfabe is in the moment, but part of our touring this year has been like a video thing

in the middle of the show. And I've gotten to see Justin's face over and over again, as he has to say, this year is a guy, 20 fungalora you heard your wish. And I've been trying to really read through like, oh, well, what's the Justin behind the Justin and what's he really feeling here? Is it a bit, is it a not what's going on?

I like Fungalore a lot. I mean, I- It took us a long time to get to Fungalore, which fell back. But it took a long time to get there, and we were all mentally and spiritually exhausted. And I thought like, I don't know if this is it, cause there's a lot riding on it.

And I feel like what was interesting about Fungalore is, it was the best job we've ever done, interestingly. Everyone loved him. Yeah. Great. We love this. The other thing is that weirdly, and I didn't actually get confirmation on this from other people until December or so,

but also mushrooms just aesthetically became hugely on trend. Amazing. Amazing. Was that us? Was that us? Was that us? Here's my theory. We need to ask. When people are worried about this year ending

and what's gonna happen to Fungalore, I don't think we created Fungalore. So much as I feel like we encountered Fungalore. Good, right. We killed Fungalore. Because we didn't. Yeah, he's not ours. He's like, we went on the Haunted Mansion ride

to find the name, and we went through the whole ride and we didn't find the name. And then there's like a hitchhiking fungalore that rode out with us. There's a ghost on the way. I don't wanna say I discovered Fungalore because that sounds like a thing you say when you found like a cafe

that hundreds of people have been to already. We encountered him for the first time. We encountered Fungalore. I wouldn't be surprised if in some annals of like foraging like history books, there has been tale of- He's been found before. Yeah, yeah, sure.

Yeah. And other cultures have known me by, you know. Right, exactly. Like whatever it is. It kicks ass. It kicks ass that we did a guy last year. I don't think we can do that. I don't think we can do that.

We can't, and that's the thing about it, right? It has to be fresh. I don't think we can do that I don't think we can't and that's the thing about it, right? It has to be I don't think we set out to But how do you follow a guy? Then let me start off strong with a strong bit. Wait, wait, wait We have to before we have to stand on precedent here and go through the list of okay Can I try to do it from memory? I was doing this last night. Yeah, that's fine memory juice Can you pull it up just to check it? I'll pull up the real, the real ass shit. Oh man, oh god.

This is always such an uncomfortable segment for us, I understand, because we just laugh at our own jokes for a good, I mean, it gets longer, like two minutes now. It gets longer every time. I know 2010 was Zolo. Zolo. Correct. Meant nothing. Yeah.

Then, was it 20 haven't get right? I mean, I meant zoo only live once. Like you, you. That's right, yes. I don't think the best version of this is Travis butchering it and then me saying it right. So Travis, you either get it clean. 20 heaven get right with Christ.

2000 in heaven. 2000 in heaven. Yeah. And then it was 20 does, get done. Getting it. Getting it. 20 does, get it done? Getting it. Getting it. Getting it, correct.

20, 2013, dig it up. Dig it up, get it out. Okay. This is the one I always stumble on. 20 grifteen, the con is on. That's 15. 14 was 20 forward. Yes.

Yes. Then 20 grifteen, the con is on. Correct. What was 24Ward, was there a subtitle? There was no subtitle on 24 is self-explanatory. That's strong, I wanna encourage us to play with the form like we did in 25, that's super good. 20Grifteen and then 20Fixteen, Building Bridges.

Yikes. 20Serpentine, Zaggon'em. Yeah. Yeah. Collaborating stronger. Okay, it's actually, technically, 20 Serpentine, keep them guessing. Keep them guessing. In parentheses. We didn't follow keep them guessing at all.

Well, just because I can't remember the subtitles, always keep them guessing. Yeah. 20 Serpentine, then, Collaborating stronger together. This is where we start to get into the ones I actually remember. Frankenstein teen become the monster. 20 Serpentine collaborate team stronger together. This is where we start to get into the ones

I actually remember. Frankenstein team become the monster. And then, now here we get it. This was 20 funny, fill your life with laughter and love which then changed to 20 honey, down to beesness. And then, funny honey, fill your life with laughter and bees. Right. Never, okay, now, the thing the history is gonna have

a hard time figuring out is that we, we changed the theme of the year three times in 2020, but at no point was it a reference to the rapid spread of the novel coronavirus in America that really reoriented spread of the novel coronavirus. The coronavirus in America that really reoriented all of the global society. It was not a lot of social unrest that was also going on during the time.

It's a hugely, yeah. I'm just ashamed. I feel like people lean on these names for guidance, for direction, and I think people probably could have used more laughter and love in 2020. And we, like fucking cowards. We were cowards, we were like,

we don't got it no more, gang, sorry. We're stepping back, you're on your own. But here's some fucking bees to play with. So. And then it was 20 Big Dog Run, no bones about it. Right? Cool. 20 Rendezvous, Fancy Takes Flight. Amazing.

20 Sun and Sea surf the vibe. Fuck, we're only getting better at this. This sucks. And then 20 Fungalore, he heard your wish. He heard your wish. This sucks, we're getting better at it as the years go on, which means that there's all weird. That's why you have to trust it.

And this year will be 20 Honey Hive back to business. Now I have written here, Travis will suggest 20 Honey Hive, back to Beesness. Now I have written here, Travis will suggest 20 Honey Hive first. That's on the bingo card. You're stuck on Bee stuff. And I feel like- Okay, but what do you think about that? What are you encouraging me to do with back to Beesness?

Get back to Beesness? Now I also thought about 20 honey hive 20 honey hive. What's the buzz? What and what are you trying to communicate with that Travis? We should all start talking together, right build a hive What about 20 honey hive dance it out? There's so much stuff about bees working together that you could have 20 honey hives sweeter together. There's so much stuff. Build a network. That's like what they do in there.

There's so much stuff you could have done. 20 Honey Hive, the needs of the many. I mean, you're getting Andrew, Andrew Ryan in there. It's getting worse. No, that was Spock. Don't don't. How dare you? All those fiction invented the idea of the needs of the many.

You know that fictional smart guys They all know one said it before him. Okay, so we'll put that at the top of the list for now That's just I right now 20 Honey Hive is our best option Let's just I like to start off at a place where 20 Honey Hive is our best I was the only option to start with I think that's great Travis and I what I do like about 20 Honey Hive Is that and I've this is becoming increasingly important to us, Hollywood it boys, is it's also an aesthetic. Bee stuff.

I can see myself dressed up like a big bee on stage. I can see that too. Yeah, we've done a lot of bee related stuff over the years though, right? This doesn't feel like a new direction for us so much as it does- Have we? Of a hearkening. I feel like I've seen us dressed as bees 10, 15 times in my life.

Have we? Now, wait, are you thinking about when we were the bee in the bee mascot costume for the local Oldies radio station? Oh, Travis, this is something I would never, I would never dress as the bee. Oh, you were cow-bunga only? No, I would never lower myself to dressing as the bee, Travis. I only dressed as the cow, a mammal, thank you.

I'm sorry, Drafts, and I didn't mean to offend your speeches. Hey guys, can we focus up a little bit? Okay, a little bit. Can we fucking dial in a little bit? You're right, Griffin, sorry. Just, I hate to be the one. I hate to start cracking the whip already, but it's just, this is a serious job that we're doing here.

Okay, Travis's throat, does someone have a list going? Yes, I shared it with you. It's a Google document. Now, Travis suggested a sequel. I wanna get my sequel out of the way. What's wrong? Now, what you've written here, Griffin, though, not to start on the what we've written in the doc jokes,

but you've written 20 Honey Hive colon blank blank blank something shitty. Well, you don't have a good outro for it. So what do you want me to put in there? What do you want me to commit to written history, Trav? No, something shitty works for now. What do you want me to commit to written history, Travis? No, something shitty works for now. Maybe something shitty. Back to business. Back to business is good. Here's my- What about 20 Honey Hive bees nuts?

Travis, my oldest son hits me with about eight to ten D's nuts jokes a day. I witnessed it at Christmas. That's true. And there's so many I know that could fucking, that would annihilate this kid, that I would get in a lot of trouble for saying out loud to him. They say, they talk about Imagine Dragons a lot, and there's an amazing Deez Nuts coda, DSL coda you can put at the end of that, but I can't and I won't.

Can I, I got a sequel that I feel pretty good about. Okay. Since Travis just did his. 20 It's Alive, Rebuild the Monster. Here's what I want you to think about. 2019, Become the Monster Strong. We all wanted to become the biggest, strongest, best, nastiest, boldest versions of ourselves.

And then the novel coronavirus happened, and we kinda had to put that away for a little while, didn't we? We all had to put that away a little bit and be sort of, put the walls up. And what I'm suggesting is in 2025, we can smash through those walls and rebuild the monster you once became.

Hmm. I like the 20 It's Alive. I think that maybe there's a better tagline to capture. Because Rebuild the Monster, I think embraces too much failure. You haven't had any of that stuff, baby? Personally, no. Oh, no.

Oh man. All I do is win. Right, I know. That's good. Cool. Most of us though, failures, that's a frequent thing, man. So taking back some of what we've lost. Something to think about. Okay. Okay, are you ready for another one? I want Justin. Justin, you got one?

No, not yet. Okay. Hold on, wait. Let's stop on that for a second. You didn't, you don't have anything. No, I have some here, but I feel like... You wanna get the chaff out of the way? Well, it's just... We never go with the first few,

so you don't wanna talk... We're not gonna go early, are we? Yeah, yeah, you don't want to go early. No, if anything, now I would push back to what I found. You guys, you guys, sometimes you gotta burn off a little fuel to get into orbit, you know? Yeah.

I found that 50% of the time, every other time, it tends to be we say one in the first 10 minutes and then we circle back to it in the last 10 minutes. I was telling Sid in the car, the thing about the year theme is that you have to prepare for it, but we'll never ever use a name that one of us has picked beforehand

because we all wanna feel like we've left our- We found it together, we built it together. A little brush stroke on the Sistine Chapel. Now for the next one, do you guys, we've done this so many years now. I'll give you one. Okay. 2045, welcome to the future.

That's awesome. I know, I know. 2045. Welcome to the future. Welcome to the future Welcome to the future Okay, so Justin's playing with form, which I really like I love that Because it's like

I never in a million years wouldn't have thought of that, Justin What I'm saying is It's a shifting continuity For my brother, my brother, me That rockets us It's Tokyo Drift Is what you're saying, This is our Tokyo Drift. This rockets the continuity 20 years into the future.

So you can see how they've all grown and changed. And for the rest of time, people will look back and be like, where does that fit in in the bigger scene? Well, but then they'll get to the actual year 2045 when we do 2025. And we'll just go right past it though. We'll skip that year.

Oh, interesting. Because we already did it. So we would already do 2045 ahead of time, right? And then when 2026 starts, we'll just pick back up. Where we left off at the end of 2024. Where we were before. Yeah, yeah, sure. Now, here's the beauty part.

When we do get to 2045, the theme of that year is 2025. Yeah. remember when. Oh, a look back, yeah. It's a look back, it's a retro year. That's cool, man. I like this one a lot. I would love to dress up like a, like RoboCop. All right.

For my next pitch. Yeah, go ahead, Trapp. For my next pitch, we've been doing this together for a while, so I've kind of mentally categorized these in three different ways. So do you want one that I like that- Just say, I have 30 ready to go, we gotta just pass these.

I like that you won't, I like that you won't, one you might like, three playing with form. Three playing with form, easy. Okay, great. We've done a guy, right? That was powerful. Now I'd like to pitch to you an action movie franchise. Thunder Force V, the Omega Continuum.

Travis, we have talked about hard. Justin, Justin, don't you dare. The cinematic universe. Don't you dare, Justin. You don't get to play with form, and then when Travis plays with form. No, Griffin, we have a production slate extending to 2045 already on the docket.

I have no room to put in another tiered universe project. Now hold on. Thunder Force V, the Omega Continuum. The Omega Continuum. How's it start? Start, me and Jules are in the room with you. Hit me with your best shot. So, the Thunder Force V, who we know is Snarky Bobo,

Kalis, Jan, yeah? Time out, time out, time out, let me stop you right there. We don't know these guys. Okay. So like, if we're building a world, we need to build it, we actually need to like show people this is- They're space adventurers, half pirates, half gods. Say it again?

Space adventurers who are half pirate, half god. Are you flexible on that because there's a lot of people- Yes, I'm open. Listen, I'm open to notes. Janice, it's me, clear my day. And- Janice, clear my day. Something really hot just came in the room. The five of them travel around.

Yeah. What are their names? We have us again. So it's Snarky Bobo, Is that like a- Talis Jan, Okay. Dink Blastar, Cool. Big horde. Is he the pilot? Who's the pilot? Yes, Dink Blastar. Wait, did you say Dink Blastar? Dink Blastar. Cool, is he the pilot? Who's the pilot? Yes, Dink Blastar.

Wait, did you say Dink Blastar? Dink Blastar. Hey Janice, refill my day. Big Hork. Get out of here. In about 30 seconds. Yeah. And Jacksensation.

Jacksensation? Jacksensation. Say that last one for Juice Again. Catch this last one. Yeah, Jacksensation. I'm loving this. It's Big Hork and Jacksensation. Okay.

And they're butler slash mascot actor, Jonathan Frakes. I don't like that. Travis, you're like really doing something really good here. And then you lose confidence and you throw Frakes in there. They're trying to stop, we see them. We start with them trying to stop the Glumlock contingent who has stolen the Omega Continuum. They're racing through the Kryon clouds of space.

Yeah. What's that? Oh no, a black hole combines with a Kryon cloud. They're both pulled through it. Fuck yeah. Right. Then they land on earth in 2025, but then it turns out that Glumlocks arrived on earth in 2015.

They've been blending in seamlessly. That would make so much sense, Travis. They're nine foot tall robots, but they've blended in seamlessly. We've landed Martha's Vineyard. Yeah. And we're trying to, oh, what's that? Turns out Snarky Bobo's half glum lot.

He just found out, right? Okay, cool. Which is creating some tension in him, but he ends up working his way through it. And from a safe distance on board the ship, the killer pacifist, they blast the world, earth explodes. They blast the world, earth explodes.

Thunder Force V does this? Yes, which ignites the Omega Continuum and starts us back. Wait, Justin, this is the best part. Juice, it's almost back. It's almost back, Juice. This is the best part. It's almost back. It's almost back juice. This is the best part I'm listening go ahead the Omega continuum began at 2015 our world resets to 2015

Okay, and now we're able to relive those following 10 years with all the knowledge We had previous of the 10 years of that's cool of the 10 years So in order to save provider to save earth Thunder Force V has to obliterate Earth. Correct. That's a big gamble they took. And it's a big choice for Snarky Bobo. Yeah, yeah. The name sucks.

If you had a different name, Travis, I would be totally, totally, totally on. Is it Snarky Bobo or Thunder Force V or? Thunder Force V is really cool. Really cool. I'm open to different names. You can't have a cool team name and then have their names be weird shit.

We love Dink Strong. What was his name? Dink Blastar, Big Hork, Jackson Sation, Talos Jan, and Snarky Bobo. The Omega Continuum does not drip off the tongue. Thunder Force V, I'm gonna put, this is our first asterisk boys, because that's, I like Thunder Force V.

Can they have different colored armor? And then they have robots that get bigger than them that are the same color? And because they're half god, they all have different powers. Awesome. That's cool. Yeah, a lot of merchandise offered.

Yeah, man. I'm gonna bust out like six in the time it took Travis to do one. Is that okay? Thanks Griffin. Well, quality, quantity. So let's just start here. 20, 20 knives, 400 blades. Huh.

This is, a lot of mine guys are pretty fucking out there. Okay? If you don't like it, just say I don't like it. It's just a thought, sorry. If so, is it 20? I don't like it, it's so, I don't like it feels so final to me. Just say it. And I don't wanna say I don't like it is so I don't like it feels so final to me I have so much shit now. I've written this Griffin as 20 X 20 knives could be that yeah

I have to make that to make knives for 400. Yeah, I'm trying to make the math work here The why 400 knives Griff 400 blades. It's 20, 20 knives, because knife rhymes with five. That was where I started with the idea, Jason. That was the seed I nurtured into 20, 20 knives. Is your problem with Justin the math of it? No, it's not math, I didn't,

I was trying to understand why he picked 400. Pure aesthetic, 400 knives. Can you imagine the set decor of these fucking live shows? All the knives and blades. Oh man, it would look exactly like Knives Out. But 20 times 20 is 400, right? Yep. Okay, so it's not, it's not cause it's 20, 20 knives,

400 blades. It's- 20 sets of 20. How are you struggling with this? I don't understand what you're not getting here, Justin. I didn't understand why you- There's 20 times 20 knives. Right, I understand now, at first that didn't occur to me.

So the selection of 400 blades- See, my first thought, Justin, was that's too many knives. But your thought is, is it enough knives for the math to work out? The discussion that has followed the names introduction tells me, of course, this can't be it. 20 Joni Ive, mind the bezels. What I like about it is it's timely.

Sure. What I like about it is it's timely. Sure. And I like that everyone will get it. I like that. Here's the other one I like, Griffin. Yeah. Easily trademarkable. We could own that name, Joanie5. I'm not sure I spelled any of this correctly.

No, you misspelled Joni, the rest of it was kick's ass. Mine the bezels I like more than 20 Joni Ive. Mine the bezels is like, look on the, keep your eye on the perimeter. Like keep your, you know, your sight lines open. So let's do like a minus, like minus and asterisk. That'll help us remember that we don't like the first part, but we do like the second part.

This is a good system we've come up with. Yeah. This is just a joke for the podcast, this won't be it, so we'll just say it and then we'll move on. 20 Do It Live, fucking thing sucks. Now we can't obviously do one that billow- See, I had 20, I said 20 Do It Live, fucking thing sucks. Now we can't obviously do one that billowy. See, I had 20, I said 20 Do It Live, no rehearsals. Man, I like rehearsing.

I'm letting it, I'm letting it mull in my palette. What about 20, 20 Do It Live, curtains up? Say, say that shit with your chest, Justin. How about 20 Do It it live curtains up? That's cool. Curtains means death to me. Curtains for real? But that's what the curtain closes.

Yeah, I guess so. Fuck. Fucking things suck. I don't know if you guys have watched that video of Inside Edition Bill O'Reilly. Oh yeah. You can close it out with a telephoto. I don't know if you guys have watched that video of Inside Edition Bill O'Reilly. You can close it out with a telebar. I don't know if you've watched it lately. Still fucking hits.

Still hits so hard. It's actually so funny. It's actually the best thing that Bill O'Reilly has ever done. Yeah, I mean, that's not a very high- Low bar. Yeah. You guys wanna bust one out?

That was three for me. Justin, you wanna give one? Yeah, here's what I got for ya. 20 super drive, pedal to the metal. Ooh, hey, can I tell you what I love, Justin? What? When we think, I had 20 overdrive, full throttle. Full throttle, baby.

I had overdrive too. 20 overdrive I also had. 20 overdrive feels fucking amazing. What was your tagline? For 20 overdrive? Yeah. No limits. But then also, because that's not a great motto

for this day and age, it can also be K-N-O-W limits. Oh. Whoa. It's a choose your own motto adventure. It can be like K. And what was with Superdrive? Pedal to metal. Yeah, Superdrive is the old news.

I think if you're gonna do Superdrive, you might as well do Overdrive, right? What does Superdrive even mean? Let's bust all our drive stuff right now. Let's get drive out of the way. Because I think Overdrive is the superior drive word. I had 24-wheel drive off the beaten path, then I had 20 front-wheel drive on the beaten path. Oh, I like that. That one I kinda like.

I had 20 hit-warp drive land among the stars. Hold on, we are not writing these fucking things down. 20 overddrive. Yeah, I shouldn't be doing it. I'm the slowest typer. So we're just getting all of our 20 drives out. Okay. Yeah, just all the drive stuff. Is someone else editing the document in real time?

I'm not even touching it, baby. Okay. I was, but I'm not doing anything right now. 20 Superdrive, Petal, I can't spell this word right anymore, 20 super drive pedal. I can't spell this word right anymore, pedal to the metal. And then 20 four wheel drive front wheel. That's not gonna make it, so I'll just stop there. Okay, Travis.

20 hit warp drive, land among the stars. Okay, Travis. 20 Hit Warp Drive, Land Among the Stars. There's a very Star Trek, very in right now. There's more Star Trek than ever before. Hit Warp Drive doesn't, Hit Warp Drive. Hit Warp Drive doesn't. Hit Warp Drive. That doesn't, that doesn't feel good.

20 Sunny Drive, A Weekend Away. Okay, I also had 20 Sunny Drive. I had 20 Sunny Drive, we can't make it a weekend away when it's a whole year's theme. That's fair, but it's attainable. It's nice to take a weekend. Yeah, not a weekend. A cheeky weekend?

You can take a weekend throughout the year several times a weekend. Just a cheeky weekend. You're suggesting we take a cheeky weekend together. Take a cheeky weekend, perhaps. I had 20 Sunny Drive, the road is calling. This is more of a- Now see for that, I had 20 take a drive, ah, oh sorry.

You really yelled at me. You really, really yelled at me. Did I? Sorry, I get excited when we sync up. Okay, I know, I know that for sure, but you yelled and let's just watch that. The energy's already kind of tensed up. I didn't mean to yell, I'm so sorry, GoFundMe.

Okay. What was your 20 sunny drive, the road is calling. Yes. I like that. But then, you know what happened after that? You yelled and so the energy around that one, Travis, is a sort of dark and cloudy energy. If I'm being honest.

It wasn't an angry yell, I'm so sorry. If we pick that one, every time it comes up, like on the screen as we walk down the stage, we'll actually react. Hold on, I'm gonna stand up and turn around three times to clear. Yeah, clear that. I'll just be scared every time I see that name now because of how scared I got when you yelled.

Okay, well that's not actually, if you hurt someone, you can actually just turn around three times and then it's better. Oh wait, I have to say sorry too. I'm sorry that I yelled. Oh. I did it. Yeah, it's fine. I did it. Yeah, it's fine. I did it.

No problem. 20, take a drive, ah, the open road. Ah, the open road sucks and you know it does and you know better than that. Ah, the open road. Wait, does it? Because I like punctuation in there. The ah, comma, the open road.

That's playing with form, but not in a way that feels like, mm. Okay. The road is calling us better. But do we wanna lean into a driving sort of aesthetic, right? If we talk about driving a car, there's a lot of people who don't like that stuff.

If we were willing to commit to like a long ass tour with a bus, then I think we went to it, but we know we're not gonna do it. I also don't wanna pick a name that people are gonna clock us on, you just picked that because it's a good tour name. You know? 20 Sunny Drive the Road is calling,

the McElroy's four month long tour of these great United States of America is a little transparent. Seems self-serving. A little bit. 20 Overdrive. 20 Overdrive, even though, yes, it's like I wrote it down,

because you kind of have to, I'm not sure that we can live up to 20 Overdrive. That's stinking thinking. I feel like with 20 Overdrive, I've known you guys for a long time, and even though we can get pretty riled up right now, what I'm saying is come like August, you know what I mean? I'm like, are we, all three of us gonna feel like pushing it into overdrive? Or by that point, might we feel like, boy, it'd be nice if we had a few just to be able to like,

you know what I mean? For a second. I've always thought of it as a sliding scale where maybe your new maximum is 15% and then you give 16% and that's overdrive, man. Yeah, no. You know? Because if I give full throttle on a Hyundai Elantra, it ain't the same as doing in a Lambo, you know what I mean?

I guess so. Are you the Lambo in this't the same as doing in a Lambo, you know what I mean? I guess so. Are you the Lambo in this analogy? Yeah, I'm a Lambo guy now. You're a Lambo guy? Yeah, now. That's kinda cool. I'm an influencer, it's not up to me. I don't wanna drive a Lambo, it's horribly inefficient.

I have children, there's no room for car seats or anything. How am I supposed to look pulling up to my kid's school, dropping off a Lambo, and I just have to pop the trunk and they're rolling around in there? But I, as an influencer, I have to. Can I pitch one of you guys that was not mine? It was made up by a member of my family, my daughter Cooper, who suggested Freddy Frite Guys. Cool.

20 Freddy. Now, now, now, now, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen. 20 Freddy Frite Guys. What is? 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20 like 20 20 knives, right? Is this saying that there are 20 of these Freddy Fright guys or is the 20 not part of it? There's 20 Freddy Fright guys. Now you might be thinking that like, it kind of sounds like Five Nights at Freddy's.

Yeah. Cause that's probably why Cooper said it, right? But like, it's not. So that's huge for us. It's not about Five Nights at all. Cause it kind of sounds like that very popular thing. But it's not that it is like, it's not. So that's huge for us. It's not about Five Nights at All. It kinda sounds like that very popular thing. But it's not that, it is like, smells like Freddy Fright.

You know what I mean, Five Nights at Freddy's. But it's not, it's Tony Freddy Fright. I would love some of those. It's also not Freddy Krueger. No. No. But what's more evocative? It's more evocative a la Freddy Krueger. Like you get the idea of it.ocative a la Freddy Krueger. Like you get the idea of it.

As made famous by Freddy Krueger. Exactly, yes, yes, yes. I would love to start- Compared to Freddy Krueger. I would love for our work to start popping in some kids FNAF algorithms. Yeah, that's true. And we can start saying like-

We're never gonna be on like a kids, like do kids still do Trapper Keepers and stuff? Yeah, they are definitely doing that. They will when they have our faces on them. But I can say things like, I'm gonna snap Huggy Wuggy's neck if you don't hit the subscribe button and they'll just do it.

I've seen it. I've seen it. I've seen them do it. That would be so huge and sick for us. I'm gonna put two asterisks next to 20 Freddy Frank guys. Yeah, I like that one. 20 Jumpin' Jive, Swing is back. I knew, okay, Griffin.

Yeah, that one's also on my list. Come here, Link, wait, no, what? I thought we had prepared for Travis to bring Swing back. No, that one's on my list of things that I knew Travis was going to say. I'm not going to go with 20 Jump and Jive. Okay, so Link arms with me, please. Link arms with me, he's gonna try to push through us

to bring Swing back. You were talking about an aesthetic. You can see the look, you can see yourself dressing as bees. Now, well here you are, wallet chain. My big dance. Oh yikes. My disappointment in you is so complete right now.

But mostly because you have the subtitle and you're ready to wail. and you're ready to wail. Now you're ready to wail. Now get ready to wail? How the fuck does that song go? And that's kind of cool. And you're ready to wail. And you're ready to jump and jive.

Get ready to wail. What's that mean? What does it mean to wail in 2025? Griffin, how did it feel to tell Travis how disappointed you were of him and then just absolutely shit your pants? Listen, I think wailing is strong. I really enjoyed it over here as a bystander.

I think wailing is strong. Scream a primal scream against this bad world. That's something, there's something there aesthetically. Here's one I think you guys will like. Monkey with a knife, Chaos Reigns. I mean, it will, and like, can we not have a counter? I mean, I don't think I want Chaos to be a primary theme. I like stability, you know what I mean? Like, I don't want chaos to be a primary theme. I like stability. You know what I mean?

I don't want chaos to reign. I like showing up for our live shows at the right time. You know what I mean? I don't want people to shoot us with silly strength and be like, chaos reigns! I mean this as a compliment. Travis, it's really, really, really gonna seem like it's not.

I just wanna set that up. Okay, go on. It's a compliment to your craft. It's giving Family Guy a little bit, Monkey with a Knife is. I mean it as a compliment. That I'm better than that? Not a compliment, right? Is that what you mean?

Is that a compliment? That I'm better than that? Monkey with a Knife, I can see on a t-shirt at Spencer's Gifts and it gives me the yucks. The Chaos Reign stuff is also rough. I don't wanna instill that in the world, but monkey with a knife. Justin, thank you for adding the little bit

Family Guy parentheses to remind me why not to bring it up again. It's a little bit silly. It's not not to bring it up again because I did mean it as a compliment. I'll put one asterisk and a plus sign. Okay. Next to this one.

Asterisk plus. I have about three more that I really like if anybody else wants to go next though. I look, I got on rhyming dictionary and I got some that are like so clearly like you got on rhyming dictionary and I got some that are like so clearly like, you got on rhyming dictionary and it's like not words like people. No, so like 2020 Shrive, confess your sins.

To Shrive I guess means to say the unspeakable things that you've done. 2020 Skive, shedding layers. That's like if you peel leather, if you, when you skin something, I guess, that's skiving. I had 2020 Chive ramp it up. Oh, that's cute. That's clever.

That's clever. But do we wanna do another plant one? Well, so I also had a try. A lot of Appalachian energy in that though. There is good Appalachian energy in there. I do agree with that. I like that. Can I share my tribe one as well? Sure.

I had cream cheese locks and chive. It's bagel time. That's cool. You had it where? In your head and then decided, where did you have it? I wrote it down on my list. 2025, cream cheese, lox and chive. It does, the meter is correct. Was this, sorry, was this one of the year themes

you were suggesting? Yes, cream cheese, lox and chive. How hard are you fighting for this one, Travis? Yeah, I was gonna fight for it so I know. As hard as the room can react to it. Can I ask you a serious question?

Is there a bar? No, here's the thing, boys. Is there a bar before it gets to us or is it just sort of a funnel? Here's the thing, boys, I don't like to limit myself because I don't know if you guys have noticed this, but I don't have a good filter.

Yeah. And so that means that some, some, the occasional whiff makes its way through. But if that means the rest of the gold is able to make it out, that's fine. There's gold in here. There's absolute gold in here. I don't wanna stop the gold from coming out.

Thunder Force V is one of my front runners right now. I haven't even given you guys, I have two more and I'm saving the best for last. Okay, fuck yeah. Fuck yeah, man, I like that energy. Did we put 20 20 chive ramp it up? No, we didn't, of course. I'm the only steward.

I'll add that, I haven't added anything yet. I just think if I'm speaking, you could type mine in. So I don't have to talk and type at the same time. What is 20 chive though? Like what's that mean? What is that trying to tell you? I don't know, you said it. 20 power dive, coming in hot.

A power dive is a term in aviation that needs to use the engine to go down faster than gravity is pulling you down. Yes, I've learned about it from Tailspin, I believe. 20 power dive coming in hot. A lot of people feel like they are going down to the bottom. I'm saying push it harder. Push it to the bottom. I'm saying push it harder. Push it to the bottom. I don't think, Griffin, if I may, I'm not a pilot. Yeah. True.

Justin, it appears, is a sea captain, I can tell by his hat. Yeah. But I don't think that a power dive ends with you crashing into the ground. There's nothing in my thing about crashing. You said to the bottom. To land.

There's something about if you feel a downward trajectory in your life, take control of it and blast the engines down. Now, okay, use it. Let me mention this then. Let me go ahead and throw out 20 take a dive. I meant to do that. Okay. So. Let me go ahead and throw out 20 Take a Dive. I meant to do that. Okay, so.

In 20 Take a Dive, you, maybe it looked to the outside observer like you failed, but actually, it's all part of the plan. 20 Take a Dive, I meant to do that. So here's my pitch. I love 20 Take a Dive.'m meant to do that. So here's my pitch. I love 20 take a dive. It's my favorite one. Okay. Here's my pitch.

Fungalore, best one we've ever done. Okay. As Griffin pointed out, we've been slowly ramping up quality of years every time. It's gonna get to a- Are you guys, by the way, starting to feel the dread that we're not gonna get it? Cause I'm-

It's gonna reach an unsustainable point. Okay. So this year is 20 take a dive, can't all be winners. And this year, yeah, it's not good. It's not good. It's not good. Absolutely not. No, it's your mouth.

And we're resetting the expectations of the year so that by 2026, we're back, no pressure, ready to start over and rebuild from there. I wasn't sure what the aesthetic of 20 Take a Dive is. Until you framed it that way. A shrug, a fourth place medal. Yeah. There's something there.

I think that's a message I want to give to people, like take a dive and lower your expectations. I don't know that I could do it myself. I want everything that we work on to be the best that it can be and that I know it can be every time. And that informs a lot of my personality. That's why the tagline is, can all be winners. But to me, I think they can and they have to be,

or else, or else, or else people won't like me anymore. And it seems like Griffin will discover that he's a phony. Exactly. You're the type of person who really needs to take a dive and see how it turns out. For sure, Travis, for sure, Travis, for sure, Dr. Travis. I know this, I've heard this, been told this. We are never gonna recover from the formatting

of you putting a sub bullet into this list. I don't know how we come back to our beautiful list since you put an indented sub bullet into our bulleted list. I apologize, this is the sub, this is like an addition, a suggestion for subheading. No, no, here we're gonna do slash. I thought it was pretty. Oh, slash, like earlier.

Like earlier in the document. Okay, I gotcha. I meant to do that slash can't all be winners. Can't all be winners. Here's our I, okay. So we got 20 take a dive. I think we all kind of saw that coming. What about 20 clear your drive?

No, seriously. Because I think we all have some things on that drive that we're like, I do need to clear it. But you don't have a sign from the universe, it's like, no, really, it's time. This is like kind of a plant your flag, like we, the podcast, are telling you, you have to this time, you have to.

Will we get angry emails if it's not blast your own cash? It does feel a little bit kind of- It feels winky. It feels winky, doesn't it? Ugh, delete it. I know, I do, there's something about 20 blast your drive, 20 clear your drive, is that what you said? 20 clear your drive.

Not because like you've got secret naughty shit because you've got Looney Tunes hentai on your computer. You gotta get rid of that stuff. Deep pull. It's just sort of informational hygiene. Sometimes I look at my desktop and I wanna be sick because of how I've held on to so much digital garbage. I did, one time BB came in and I have dual monitors and they're filled with so many weird

JPEGs from like Abnumal stuff and just like a lot of JPEGs from things I've pulled of like bits from my brother, my brother, me and Clubhouse and stuff and they're all just loose on the thing. Just loose WAV files just drifting about. And Bibi was like, why does your computer look like that? And I was like, oh, it's just a bunch of files. She was like, why don your computer look like that? And I was like, oh, it's just a bunch of files. She was like, why don't you get rid of them?

And a lot of dang time, my computer doesn't work so good or fast. And almost always I go in and I clear up my drive and then it starts working a little bit better. And this can be more of a metaphorical thing too, right? Like clear your life drive. What's in your life drive filling it up? Now I'm feeling sort of a reboot aesthetic,

just a sort of like digital avatars. And it's like, what's in your life that you need to get rid of to get right with Christ? What would Jesus not like that you do in your life every day? I think it would be powerful to be like, 20 clear your drive, reboot, big exclamation point, reboot. I mean, that's embracing the rebuild the monster energy

that I aesthetically was drawn to. A reclaiming vibe. Oh, okay. Can I just say to jump back to the monster, something about 2.0 as a mindset, right? Of it's not rebuilding because of failure. It's an iteration improvement, you know what I mean? Yeah.

This isn't like starting from scratch. No. Because it was wrong. This is like a 2.0 iteration. 22.5, kind of mixing. 22.5. Doesn't mean anything. How long have we gone?

47 minutes, huh? That sucks. Let me, let's crack this, let's crack this baby wide open. Let's crack this baby, let's go to money, do we have money zone? I mean, okay, if there's a money zone, it's here. Yeah.

and blow it up into manifold galaxies. X, X, V. Get rid of 2025. X, X, V. If we wanna go with a subtitle, a naming, rhyming scheme, it can be, it then rhymes with V, which is. That would just be 25 Griffin. Yeah, no, I know, but we're not going to be alive

in the 22nd century, Travis. But what he's, what Travis is pointing out Griffin, is that, that is, that, I mean, mean it isn't 2025 you're just saying 25, okay MCM xxv oops, it's ruined or should we do the other one that's fucking cool and sexy Yeah, but like I think it would actually just be M M xxv Oh yeah, MCM was so MMXXV That doesn't even xxv five letters is kind of cool

I feel like xSV is where- If we could figure out a thing that it stood for, like an acronym, that MMXXV, but what? Give me two words back to back, let's start with X, that makes sense. Xerox, Xerox. Vape. That's right.

Machine monster, Xerox, Xerox, vape. If you can get me to Mighty Morphin, we got Mighty Morphin right there. Xerox, Xerox vape, Mighty Morphin, Xerox, Xerox vape. New from Bandai. It's Mighty Morphin, X-Ray Vapors. XXV, I could see in a silver embossed font on the side of a bottle of fancy men's cologne sold at the Nordstrom Rack.

XXV, XXV, Serenity. Like that's the name of a cologne by Dior. Right. So your suggestion is Roman numerals, just the idea of Roman numerals. It's never gonna be this short and tight and hot again as XXV. Never gonna be that succinct. Is there a subtitle to it or you're just saying just XXV?

XXV, the next one's me. XXV, classy boys. We already did a classy year and it was awesome. Dignified. XXV, Rome, if you want to. And that's R-O-M-E? Good. No, we have to, I wanna foster a space

where what you just said is cool. Cause we're not gonna get there if we think that that sucks. XXV, Rome, if you want. We should all be able to say shit like that, Juz, is what I'm saying. No, listen, listen. XXV, Rome, if you want to, like, we all know the numerals.

And they're cool, right? But one of those Rome stuff. I'm gonna start a new bullet pointed list for XXV. I'm saying, I wanna make a year theme where everyday people will think about Rome. You know what I mean? Like think about their. Like what's your Roman Empire kinda do?

Yeah, like it'll be like their, I want people's Roman Empire to be the Roman Empire. You know what I mean? Where they're like thinking about, they're thinking about it again. So thinking about what they think about a lot will become way more. No, I'm just saying, like, everybody can think

about the Roman Empire this year. Not just men? Rome if you want to. Huh. Can I stretch? Ah. We should've taken a break at the money zone. Yeah, I thought that's what we were gonna do

and then we rolled right through it. Let's take an actual break. No, because we already did it. I'm starting to feel that sort of frenetic panic and I think we can use that. Guys, while I was pissing, I had an idea. Can you give it a little bit more gravitas than that? It struck me, an epiphany.

An epiphany? An epiphany struck me, guys. I like the record show, excuse me. Excuse me, judges. Like the record show, I beat Griffin by one, three points. And it's a poor Manto that I love. Yeah. But choose your own adventure, Yarr. points, three points. And it's a poor Manto that I love. Yeah. Choose your own adventure year.

Okay, hold on. No, hear me out, hear me out. Because my last suggestion was 20 strive to thrive better than ever. So what if we split the year? Yeah. It's a hybrid year of 20 take a dive and 20 strive to thrive.

And you choose which one you want to embrace. The naming convention, the rhyming convention of 20 strive to thrive is so deranged. It strains cajolity. Well, I didn't want, I didn't want strive or thrive by itself. Yeah. But strive to thrive really hit me in my heart. But if you're like, I don't have it in me

to Strive to Thrive this year, then you take a dive. I feel like to make another different- Different five rhyme. To reuse the rhyme and to use the different rhyme before it. Okay. It just really calls attention to how rhymes don't- So it can be like- One is strive to thrive and or take a dive.

It's all one year. The fact that take a dive doesn't have two five rhymes in it also, like kind of, it makes it a little bit- Strive to dive. Strive to thrive or dive. Your choice. That's the- Strive or thrive.

Your choice. Strive or thrive. Thrive or dive. Your choice. How much do we care about that V? How much do we give a shit about that V? How important is the V? If we take that-

20 never die. 20 never die, like really, 20 funny guys, be yourself. Like a lot of these things come back into play. I mean, if we look back to 20 forward, 20 forward, way out there. Seems like if we can't do a I've sound, what are we doing, you know what I mean? It's one of the easiest, yeah.

It's one of the easiest ones. It's not one of the easiest, it's not one of the easiest. 20 I've arrived, take it or leave it. Ooh. Or I will also set 20 I've arrived, you may begin. Ooh. What's that mean? What that means is I've arrived.

Uh-huh. Whatever it was, I've arrived, you may begin. You gotta tell me what it is. I think it's pretty self-explanatory. It's cool. I'm asking- 20, I've arrived. Yeah. You may begin.

I'm asking follow-up questions because I'm interested. Okay, good, good, good, good, okay. What is it? What are you talking about? Okay, so let me, I'm hearing what you're saying. Hold on, Janice? I hear- Clear my schedule.

Yeah, I'm hearing what you're saying, Griffin. You guys have, clear my schedule. Yeah, I'm hearing what you're saying, Griffin. You guys have got to get different secretaries at some point, by the way. Well, Justin and I have the same schedule. We do. We share a calendar. 20, I've arrived. You may begin.

You asked me, what is it, right? So I'm gonna do something interesting. It's a thought experiment. I'm going to take that question, I'm gonna turn it around. I'm gonna ask you, Griffin, what is it right? Yeah, I'm gonna do something interesting is a thought experiment. Okay. I'm going to take that question I'm gonna turn it around. I want to ask you Griffin. What is it awesome? the part the function Exactly The meeting the intervention whatever it is. I've more than those two options though, right? It's one of those two 20 I've arrived arrived. You may begin. A funeral, whatever.

Be cool energy to say don't start the intervention until I get there. I get there. The intervention don't start till I walk in. We're all really worried about- Because it's for me, I'm the one benefiting from it. Or because I'm the paid therapist who's late, so sorry. It's probably awkward to-

20 I've arrived. I like it because it does imply like a, I'm in my power, I'm taking this, like- It's I if I don't like. You don't like the double rhyme, I think is what we're learning here. 20 I've arrived. Is that what it is?

20 we've arrived in our here. 20 I've arrived. Is that what it is? 20 we've arrived? In our power. 20 we've arrived. We've arrived. We've arrived. Arrive have I've. Does that work better? 20 they've arrived. Let's deal with it. Oh, like an aliens thing? That's cool. Like it's aliens.

20 they've arrived. You seen them drones? 20 drones arrived. 20 drones arrived. 20 drones arrived. 20 Cs arrived. 20 drones arrived, no more fireworks. Okay. Because really they're better.

That is true, okay listen. Right? You're honest up there. Who's fucking using fireworks anymore? Maybe someone would do a drone show for us for free if we called the year 20 Drones Arrive, No More Fireworks. That's, there's, I'm feeling good about 20, 20 They've Arr- something, the outer space

aesthetic is kind of cool to me. I also feel like it might be this year. Then could it be 20 They'll Arrive, like it's a prediction? I don't like the prediction. Okay. It would be like if 20 Fungalore was called 20 Mushrooms Are Gonna Get So Hot. 20, they'll arrive, like it's a prediction. I don't like the prediction. Okay. It would be like if 20 fungal was called 20 mushrooms are gonna get so hot.

Like we don't wanna put our name on the line. We do, if you read the news, there has been a fun thing for quite a while now where a lot of the big government people are kinda like, yeah, yeah, yeah, aliens the whole time, so absolutely. And everyone's kinda like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we thought, the, so volutely. And everyone's kinda like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we thought, and the government guys are just kinda standing there like,

you guys got any follow-ups? Yeah, you were right. You were right, okay. What are you doing with that now? I do know. You got us, okay, you got us. It does seem like a lot of people who were like, I think there are aliens,

didn't have a second step to that plan. So that when government guys are like, yeah, they're like, oh, okay. I imagine there is a sort of- Can we see him? No, no, absolutely not. Well, now I don't think there are aliens. That's my new conspiracy theory.

You're lying about there being aliens. I imagine there's a class of sort of nomadic podcast listener who wants to show that their following starts talking a bunch about aliens. They're like, pack, they start packing it up and they say, well, we will find our way to less alien rich waters. I think a lot of shows go this route and it's a slippery slope. Now, but this is also a chance driven for us to establish a new base of listener with

aliens. I'm not even interested in joking about that. So if it was 20, they've arrived open arms. I don't wanna espouse that. Okay. I don't wanna espouse that. You don't want aliens to like our show? I don't think there's any chance aliens-

You don't wanna court that demographic. I think it's pointless. I worry what it says to humans more than what it says to aliens. If I'm like, come on aliens, come and give it. This is cool for you, come and get it. That sends a message to real humans. That's what I'm more concerned about. 20 they've arrived, characters welcome.

What are you doing right now, Juice? I'm just thinking. What are you looking at? What? My finger. I'm just thinking, look at my finger. I got a splinter. I got a splinter in my finger. I'm just thinking, look at my finger. I got a splinter.

I got a splinter in my finger. It made you seem so philosophical in that moment. It really did, man. I was thinking like Justin's going through something. Justin's processing. That's why Stanislavski, when he was teaching people acting, he would have people stand on the stage and they wouldn't do anything,

and then he'd have them count the floorboards, and then it would become more captivating. We just love to see people, you know, in their element, really live in their lives. I don't know that I'm, I don't, do you guys think you see it on here? No, no fucking. Now there's a base level of 20,

we'll survive, just get through it. No, I hate that. But I don't think that- I know, I know. But I didn't want, do you ever get to a point in the naming of the year where you start thinking what's gonna be the thing that people message us later? People say we miss, let's say it out loud.

Yeah. Yeah, I don't, I, yeah. What about 20 Honey Hive back in business? Okay, what about 20, you know what? That's not a bad idea, Travis. Let me read through the list real quick. See how I feel. Oh, have I already said that one? 20, it's alive, rebuild the monster.

These are two like retro themes. 2045, welcome to the future. Cool. Thunder Force V, the Omega Continuum. Cool. 2020 knives, 400 blades. Cool. 20 dirty eyes, mind the bezels.

Cool, fuck, these all rule, damn it. 20 do it live, damn it. 20 Do It Live, No Rehearsal, fucking thing sucks, curtains up. 20 Overdrive. 20 Overdrive I will say is my most phonetically, I think pleasing one, the most opportunity rich option. 20 Overdrive, and there's no subtitle. I had no, here, I'll add the subtitle rich option. 20 overdrive and there's no subtitle. I had no, I had, here I'll add the subtitle to that.

20 overdrive, no subs, all dubs. 20 super, 20 super drive, pedal of the metal, sure. 20 four wheel drive. Okay, no limits. That's with both a K and yeah, that's aesthetically great. 20 Sunny Drive the road is calling 20 Freddy fright guys 20 Jumpin' Jive and you're ready to whale monkey with a knife chaos reigns I think you've been hearing it we know that's not right. No, it's a little bit family guy here. 2020 Chive ramp it up 20 20 power dive coming in hot,

20 take a dive, I meant to do that slash can all be winners, 20 I've arrived, you may begin. XXV, Roam if you want to, XXV, and then there's like an awaiting, like there's gotta be more on this XXV vine. Want some meat on the bone if you will. 20 strive to thrive, I see Travis's, and or dive. XXV, Tex-Mex, me.

That's awesome. Yeah, that's awesome. Tex-Mex, me. Okay, you got the emphasis right at that time. It's like, Tex-Mex, me. But then you'd have to say it like it's like, Tex-Mex me, you know what I mean? But then you'd have to say it like, X-X-V, Tex-Mex me. It's quite simply, X-X-V, X-X-V, Tex-Mex me.

Hmm, I like that. Tex-Mex me sounds like you're about to do a character that is gonna get you kicked out of whatever friend group you're in. And this is a character I call Tex-Mex me sounds like you're about to do a character that is gonna get you kicked out of whatever friend group you're in. And this is a character I call Tex-Mex Griffin. Here he goes. Can I just say, this is, and this is Polish me. Here we are, all right. Here we go, yeah.

Here we go. I don't wanna use up Roman numerals because 2030 we could make it XXX too hot for TV. Oh, man. You are saying let's not do this joke now, let's let it ripen on the vine for five more years and then definitely bust it out. I don't think XXV is,

cause I'm looking at it like, oh, it's disappointing that that last letter is not also X. I think it's kind of cool actually. It's what makes it, why you would see it on a cologne bottle of Dior. So it would be like XXV, almost too hot for TV. I'm trying to play with form. I understand that.

That's why I added Thunder Force V, the Omega Continuum. Can you give me another, can you give me something a bit more phonetically pleasing than the Omega Continuum? Do you have other subtitles prepared? That is what I'm, the problem that I have with Thunder Force V is that part is good. Okay. And then when I get

to the Omega Continuum, I feel like it's nerd shit. You know what I mean? Like it's not cool anymore. I want it to be something cool. Like a cool thing. Thunder Force V, Dink Blastar begins. Again, every time you say Dink Blastar, I wanna quit and Joe, go join Podzare.

The rise of Big Hork? Say it again. The rise of Big Hork? Now, unsay it. I like Dink Blastar. And I just wanna put that out there and it. I like Dink Blast R. And I just wanna put that out there and say that I like Dink Blast R. It's toyetic, is really good for me.

Thunder Force V is toyetic, but I feel like the Omega Continuum, it's getting a little bit Michael Crichton. Well, then let's do what we do every year. Let's take a subtitle from a different one and put it on there. Thunder Force V, they can't all be winners. And you're ready to wail, bagel anyone.

They can't all be winners. Text Max me. I like Thunder Force V, can't all be winners because it references itself. It like fails and then acknowledges the failing, which is cool. That is cool. It's like how it took Marvel until like Iron Man

for it to really kick off. Yeah. Give it time. Yeah. 400 blades, mind the bezels. No limit, 20 overdrive, 20 line drive? It's not the meter. Meter's all fucked up.

How about medium overdrive, like middle throttle? Middle drive. Well, cause everybody does maximum overdrive, full throttle. Too long, too long of a walk. Is it? 2045. Pretty good.

I don't know how we, how actionable 2045 is. Aesthetically, obviously. Thunder Force V, welcome to the future. The future is now. I wanna put Thunder Force V on pause. As the world's biggest Thunder Force V fan, I do think we need to set it aside for a second to sample the other flavors.

Maybe we need to come at this from a different way. I'd love that. Of thinking about like, in the past, the kind of messages we've embodied with the year. And like what messaging do we really want to encapsulate this year and work from there? Yeah. It's been a while since we talked about Christ.

Yeah. Yeah, it's a good streak. I'd like to keep that. Okay, great, great, great. 20 find your drive I Am drawn to Technological

Ideas, I am because 2025 sounds like such a future year? Possibly, possibly. I feel like a lot of my sort of abstract leanings are becoming strong, becoming the monster, becoming the machine. What if instead it is more destroy, destroy the monster, destroy the machine. What if instead it is more destroy the monster, destroy the machine? 20 overdrive, destroy the machine. Rage against, but I guess that's what rage

against the machine means, huh? No, to be fair, I've always thought rage against the machine was too passive. Okay. You're raging against it, time to take action. What if it's 20 overdrive? Rage within the machine. was too passive. Okay. You're raging against it. Time to take action. What if it's 20 overdrive? Rage within the machine.

20 overdrive, actually rage against the machine. No, but really, man. Rage against the machine, parentheses, actual. Really rage against the machine. Really do it. Really rage against the machine, comma, guys. 20 honey hive.

You can't take us back. 20 don't deprive. I wanna throw out some bad ones, okay? Whoa, hey. 20 don't deprive. You can't include 20 honey hive and throw out some bad ones? Throw out some bad ones, yeah.

No, no, no. I think it's the best one we have so far. I'm putting out some bad ones. 20. They're all good. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like when this show ends,

it will be during one of these. Right? Like this. Right? Like this. Like this. Like this. Like this.

Like this. Like this. Like this. Like this. This'll be the moment. It's so- Not with a bang, but with a whimper. At this point, it has built to a point where it's like, I could see a distant, far future version of myself. It's like, I can't, no.

Why not? I can't, it's not there. Johnny Wonderknife. Huh. Johnny Wonderknife. Huh. Johnny Wonderknife. No subtitle. Johnny Wonderknife? This is a new guy.

That's another character. I really don't wanna do another guy. Now, hold on, it doesn't have to be a character. It could be something like that you would have seen on Amazing Discoveries, where we're selling an item called the Johnny Wonder Knife. Cool. What about 20 Johnny 5, short circuit reboot?

I don't even wanna reference the ghost. Justin got so half excited though, Justin. When did I lose you? I thought you were about to, what? The subtitle. Okay. I thought you had something good. 20 Johnny 5. You need input. 20 Johnny five. You need input.

20 Johnny five. It's like, that's not universal enough. Only like three people will like that and even they will only kind of smirk at it. Oh man. 20 throwing knife. 20. Let me look around my room.

20. Okay. 20, scary guy in corner. 20, 20, all right. 20, honey hive. 20 gives me hives. 20, no more hives, allergies are in the mind. That's cool. Whoa. That's cool, I don't like it, but it's cool.

I'll tell ya, I'll tell ya. Let's explore this, cause we're going through every crack and crevice of this fucking booger is, I like hive. I don't think I like honey. 20, is there another type of hive or another word we can toss in there?

Could it be something about instead of a beehive, like a wasp hive that you need to destroy? 20 burn the hive. No, wasp hives are fine. 20 burn the hive. 20 burn the hive. 20 burn the hive. Yeah, because the one thing our fans are notable for is their hatred of bees.

Not bees, not bees. Not bees. Oh, I mean like, okay, I know wasps are not just angry bees. They're bad. 20 guard the hive, protect the queen. No, I don't wanna embrace monarchy. But it's the queen inside. Be the queen.

The queen inside is, okay, hold on. 20 honey hive, the queen inside. 20 I've arrived, the Queen inside. Ooh. You're writing an awfully big check right now, Justin. With the aesthetics of that. That I don't know that any of us are willing to cash. I, okay. 20 Funny Drive.

Listen to this funny podcast I found. We're getting close. 20 Funny Drive, my to this funny podcast I found. We're getting close. 20 Funny Drive. My brother, my brother, my brother. We're getting close. This is at least a year, this is a year. 20 Max Fun Drive. Consider supporting. 20 Max Fun Drive.

The theme of this year is giving us money. 20 Funny Drive, put the boys back in the car. Feels pretty good to me because people don't listen to podcasts in their car anymore, and it's not putting my kids through college. 20 funny drive, boys back on the menu. Boys back on the menu is cool. Boys back on the menu?

Quick, keep going. We're hot right now, Justin, keep going. Don't stop saying it. I feel like I'll say things that I can't not say. No, build, build, you're hot right now, Juice. 20, 20, 20 funny drive. Yep. Boys are back in sound.

Boys are back in sound, it's awesome. That's really good. That sounds like one of the taglines they came up with for our short-lived television show. It was just a short season, Griffin. We're gonna get him back. 20 Mega Drive. Mega Drive.

Time, 20 Mega Drive. 20 Bunny Drive. Bunny Honey Hive. Funny Honey drive. Fill your life with laughter and bees. To the max. Maximum bees. 20 mega drive, a new Genesis.

The Sega Genesis was called the Sega Mega Drive outside of North America. So this would be a very, um, you know, very 1990s sort of vibe. I guess I'm just want to say a new Genesis would also be a great subtitle for Thunder Force five. Just saying Thunder Force five, a new Genesis would be, but that would work for us. I'm talking with my PR team over here and they're all nodding.

Okay. Juice, what are you exploring right now? 20gimme5. Oh, okay. This actually occurred to me. I'm so glad you reminded me of this because I had this idea last night of 20gimme5 in which we expanded out the language of high fives to not just be celebration or greeting,

but depending on at what angle your arm was, like the arm of a clock would indicate different emotions. So 20 Give Me Five, more than words. And so like, if you went fully like 90 degrees. We've done more than words before. We've done more than words. We've cooked with that spice so many times. I just like the idea of if someone's like,

how was your weekend? And you like hold your arm out straight to the right and it's like, it was okay. Think about that. Think about that. You guys need to get back to writing these down because I've thrown out some really good ones. Okay.

I'll add some of these myself while you're coming up with more. Huh. Okay. Now, I also thought, and I'm worried about the first bluffs of messaging of 20 Gimme Five slap around the world. But my idea being that we try to do like a hands across America kind of thing, but it's that we encourage our listeners to like high five him every country.

I don't want to touch people more than I already am, which is not much. No, we wouldn't do it. Now, Justin, I enjoy this one you've thrown in here now. That's one that we've already talked about. 20 Pennywise, quick clownown, and Round Buster? Oh no, that's new, Juice. Is that new, Travis?

Did you just come up with that yourself? Well, Justin, if I did, it was planted in my brain by my brother, Inception Style. You're the first person to say it in the podcast, so I feel like you must have come up with 20 Pennywise, Quick Clown, and a Round Buster, and Travis, I love it. What I love about that is the image of one of us standing at a sewer grate while Pennywise, quit clowning around, Buster, and Travis, I love it. What I love about that is the image of one of us standing at a sewer grate while Pennywise is standing,

like, I've got balloons, and you're like, quit clowning around, Buster. You almost got me, Pennywise. Where you going, Griffin? 20 sleep deprived. 20, I hate to pry. 20 hate to pry is really tough to be actionable, but it is fun.

Yeah. 20, 20 love my wife. 20 love my wife. A true romance. 20 love my wife, a true romance. 20 love my life. 20 love your life with laughter and love. 20 love. 20 fill your life, Colin.

20 love your life down to pieces. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. I'll look back. 20 fill your life with laughter and love as like a second called shot. Something of- And even less. Twenty fill your life, colon.

Purpose meaning laughter. Bees. Love. Bees. Twenty live your life. No theme. Only love. Twenty live your life, no theme, only love. 20 live your life.

Gap year. Gap year. 20 live your life, they can't all be winners. They can't all be winners. Just do whatever you want. 20, no, it's such a, I can't short duty like that. People need it. or do you like that? People need it.

I feel like the answer lies in playing with the form and it's so, that's the hardest fucking part of this whole God dang endeavor. Is there something we can do playing with the choose your own adventure thing, where we're making it like open-ended with guidance, allowing people to tell us, almost like a mad lib of a year.

That's where it's like, cause this is what I think so magical about Fungalore, yes, he heard your wish, but the wish is for you to make, for you to accomplish. He doesn't do it. He's going to hear your wish. And once you've spoken that wish into existence, you're going to do it. Right? We need something like that, that isn't telling people what to do, but rather giving them an opportunity to do the thing they need to do.

I have the strangest sensation that it was delivered to all three of us simultaneously during the break. Holy shit. I feel like we all know it. You're kidding me. No, I think it was sent to all three of us. I have one that I feel pretty good about. I do too. Okay, we're gonna count to three

and then we'll all say it. Okay. One, two, three. 20 Sunny Lined Food Drive. Okay. So let's go in order, Justin, Travis, what was yours? 20 Canned Food Drive, act locally. I like the energy, I like the intent of it.

Imagine this, every live show as people come in. Don't say, we're gonna have to do this now, Travis. We're gonna have to do a canned food drive now, Travis. We can still do that even if it's not the year. We got to now, because you said it. That's the worst case scenario. And then we donate it to- We don't even get the joke out of it, and we have to do a canned food drive.

Cool. You condemned us. Do you know how to do one of those, Trav? Hey Trav, quick question, do you know how to do a canned those, Trav? Hey Trav, quick question, do you know how to do a canned food drive, Trav? Cause now we gotta do them. When we do a live show, we find a place in town. Uh huh, who's gonna do that? You're gonna do that, you're gonna find a place

and get all the cans. No, we'll make tour manager Paul do it. Okay, thank you Paul. So fucking wild. Hey listen, hey listen, I'm excited to announce right now Yeah, here's my ear, right? I'm excited to announce, no listen, no listen, I'm excited to announce right now that every My Brother, My Brother, Me Live show in 2025 will be participating in the Paul Sabourin Food Drive Memorial The Paul Sabourin Memorial Camp Food Drive

That's cool It's the Paul, Paul Sabourin Memorial Food Drive. That's cool. No, it's the Paul Subborial Memorial Food Drive. Subborial. That's awesome. He doesn't have enough stuff to do at the show, so it's gonna be fucking psyched. Here's my ditch. He sets that all up,

and the beauty part about the Paul Subborial Memorial Food Drive is that we don't even do anything. Interface with it at all. We are merely the conduit. Yeah. We get all the credit. My year theme is 20 free sunglasses. And if you come to our show, you get free sunglasses.

Delivered to you by Paul. All right, so. Wait, Griffin, what was yours? I forget. Oh, yeah. Honey, you've arrived. Cool subtitle. Honey, you've arrived. Cool subtitle. Honey, you've arrived.

This one's for you. Honey, you've arrived. That's good, that's a better version of 20 I've arrived. Yeah. Honey, you've arrived is really good. Honey, you've arrived. Honey, you've arrived. But what's the subtitle?

I don't know, but it feels like a strong base. Stand in your power. You put in 20 hits subscribe. 20 hits subscribe, stand in your power. 20 hits subscribe, Gold Play Button, I like a lot. Justin, oh that's good, that's the first time someone said that on the show. What do you think?

Brothers Hit It Big. Ooh. If we couple that with a canned food drive, that's okay. As long as we do the canned food drive too,

we can ask people to do things for us. A little give and take. So the theme of most of the year is 20 likes subscribe, Brothers Hit It Big. The theme of our live shows is 20k food drive Thank you, Paul. No, we can't do it. We can't bifurcate like that. I'll get no. Yeah All right, follow like subscribe support the arts

Sun focused Honey you've arrived Stand in your power Not stand in your power. It has to, this is where we can play with the form, I feel like, in the subtitle. Honey, you've arrived. Honey, you've arrived.

What do you need? How can we support you? Honey, you've arrived and we're loving it. Honey, you've arrived. Can I say right now what's sparking joy within me? Can I talk about? Follow, like, subscribe, support the arts. But that's, oh man.

The human element, that, subscribe. Just take down the machine. The human element. The human element, that's interesting. Are we at all concerned about the fact that follow, like, subscribe sounds almost nothing

like the words 2025? I'm not worried about that at all. No, because we've been recording for an hour and a half. So yeah. It feels too self-serving, guys. Follow, like, subscribe. Humans are perfect. No, we are.

No, listen. What? Creators unite. 20, 20 unsubscribe. Huh. 20 unsubscribe. Touch grass. The road is calling. The road is calling. The road is calling. 20 unsubscribe.

Because you said that. You gotta say surf the port. 20 unsubscribed, God is the greatest creator. Almost, Travis, keep jazzing. You're close to the surf the vibe kind of magic. That's where I want you right now. That's where I need you. 20 unsubscribe.

20 unsubscribe, real life Minecraft. Craft your life. 20 unsubscribe. Are we saying unsubscribe? Okay, hold on. Unsubscribe. Not from us. Not from us, clearly. No, this is what I'm saying. That's it, 20 unsubscribe, colon, not from us. Not from us, clearly. No, this is what I'm saying. That's it, 20 unsubscribe colon, not from us.

Not from us, though. 20 unsubscribe could mean get rid of the stuff in your life that you don't use, that you don't need anymore as parts of your life you don't want to have anymore. Get rid of those. It can also mean unsubscribe from email newsletters. The text messages.

Text messages that you don't do. Or are we saying unplug from, unplug from it all. Cause I don't give a shit about that. I'll never unplug from it all. I need this stuff. I live for this fucking tech shit. 20 come to life, escape the machine. 20 come alive.

20 come alive. What about that? 20 come alive. 20 come alive, it that 20 come alive? 20 come alive. It sounds so you sound 20 come alive It's buddy come alive buddy come alive honey come alive Wake up with me honey funny come alive funny comes alive Brothers Colin funny comes alive.

It's a great tour, guys it's a fucking your face. It's a great tour. Guys, it's a fucking killer tour. It's a great tour, but it doesn't mean anything.

Lift your spirits. Yeah, absolutely. To do a joke or two, you know? Okay, I want us to look at the list that we have here. Oh, okay. This list. And I want us to each pick two

that we think there's something within. Okay. What's wrong, Revan? I'm not saying that they're it. I just don't think we're there yet. But is there something refinable within them? 20 Freddy Fry, guys. Still like 20 Overdrive.

20 Jump and Drive, now you're ready to wail. Oh, God. It's what we should erase. I'll be, there may be something actionable and cool in there. The aesthetic is tough for me to get past. Yeah, I know. It'll be hard for me to buy this outfit.

Okay, can I tell you guys the thing about it? Here's where I'm at, okay? Yeah. Here's where I'm at. I came in really nervous about Jive, you know, I think that that's that's fair I think that we all saw that Jive was gonna try to Rear its head and I do think the swing aesthetic I was very very on guard for and I agree with but the more I think about Griffin dress in a

Swing style outfit at a live show, it starts to get funnier to me, the idea that we would try to breathe, that in all of our marketing for the year, we are attempting to take back the sweat. It's chilly, it is chilly here in DC. We have our furnace going full blast. I just got cold all over my body from all my blood inside me.

I'm saying it's like to the outside world. My high heart rate warning has activated on my Apple Watch. When you look at the marketing for our shows this year, you would swear to God it's gonna be a cherry pop and Daddy's tribute act. Like it is just full, full swing. Oh, new swing. And here's what I'm saying.

Here's what I'm saying. If we do that now, and then by the end of the year, swing is back. Then I think we could say definitively we are steering the ship. Cause that didn't happen on accident. end of the year, swing is back, then I think we could say definitively we are steering the ship. Yeah. Cause that didn't happen on accident. Right. That style wise, that one is more, this is, I'm saying it's almost an experiment, girl. To see if we can shift the culture. Like I need to know if the fungalore thing was a one-off

or if we can really put some English on the ball. So I think we're ready to call it. if the fungalore thing was a one-off, or if we can really put some English on the ball. So I think we're ready to call it. There's no chance in fucking hell or heaven or earth. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I won't do it. Okay. That's interesting. That's a good energy. It's so interesting. Now we don't vote here on this show, so let's not vote, but Griffin, I would love to know. Simply no. You know what's hard, Griffin?

What's tough? Is I can, I feel like I'm standing next to you on a stage somewhere in this great nation of ours where we're watching this on a screen and you're like simply no. We're not, we're not, we're not, we're not. I feel like there's a hard cut coming though. Like this is where, there's no way, absolutely no.

We are gonna be, no. And there's Griffin. We'll be recording for another hour before we get even close to this. This will be a footnote in what is already a long and bright content rich episode. Nope, this isn't one of those moments. I can feel it.

You're probably wondering how I got here. 20, jump and dive. Five. Five. 20, 25. Two more hosts. Ooh. Just try to get some fresh heat.

Yeah. Some new heat. Who? Here's how about this? Can I ask who? Well, that would be what the year's about. Ooh, just try to get some fresh heat. Yeah. Some new heat. Who? How about this? Who? How about this? Can I ask who? Well, that would be what the ears are.

Oh, it's like a building the band kind of thing. Okay. I would like to, maybe what, Griffin, what you need to get your juices flowing is a little pressure. And what if I said, if we don't find one we like in 15 minutes, then it's 20 Jump and Jive, now you're ready to wail.

Yeah, we've been going for so long, Griffin. You're gonna have to give us something that's better than the idea of us trying to force a swing aesthetic back into the year 2025. And into our youngest brother's heart. Into, well, it's not, I really don't want it to be a theme. If the theme is funny because Griffin hates it, that's not funny to me.

It is funny the idea that we would, I like the idea that we are trying to test the theory as to whether or not we have the amount of power that Fungor made it seem like we have. But we would be making the world measurably worse, demonstrably worse. If we do have that power. This time we get to shape it, Griffin.

Yeah, no, it's... Okay, wait. What if it's 20 Jump and Drive, Swing's last chance? And we give Swing one more chance. One more chance. One more chance. And if it doesn't happen this time. If it doesn't happen this time, we're done.

20 jump and drive, three strikes, you're out. Swing's last chance, it's the last chance for Swing. Gryffindor, you give it one more shot, one more bite at the apple. 20 jump and drive, swing and a miss. 20. Could we do something with give? No, no Travis, we can't get something like that.

On paper. But we can say it like 2020-Give. Wait, no, wait, now if it's 2020-Give, charity, some sort of like charitable aspect, I if it's 20-20-Guyv, charity, some sort of charitable aspect, I think that's great. Yeah. 20-Money-Guyv. Support the arts.

20-Money-Guyv. Do what you can. 20-Money-Guyv, spread it around. This shaping up to be our longest one. I'm so fucking hungry. Can this be the first episode where we eat on the episode? No, because I got a wedding here tomorrow and I gotta go take down all my Christmas decorations.

Do we need to stand up? Yeah. I don't think I can. Well, I have strep throat, Griffin. That'll mess up the video. And I'm standing up. Okay. Lower my desk slowly in case any cables just fucking snap.

Okay. How about this? Let's see. Bye Griffin. Oh fuck. Hey, how about this? The lamp is off the ground. 20 front wheel drive.

Here's how cars work. And it's, you're also learning this year how cars work. It's like education, you know what I mean? I like cars as a thing. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. The idea of cars you like. Uh-oh, one of my monitors moved. I'm gonna stop right there.

I like cars as an aesthetic. Gear head shit. Like, I think that's kinda cool. I had to put my lamp on the ground and now my lighting has gotten extremely dramatic. 20 learn to drive, 20 earn to drive. Feel the drive. Feel the drive.

That's powerful. 20 live the drive. Live the drive, live to drive, live to drive. Live the drive, 20 Live the Drive. Thrive to drive. I just took a few steps back and now I can see my heavy power strip through which my entire like shit is routed is hanging off the ground

by the tension of the wires. At any moment, they could slip and give, and I will disappear. 20 slip and give. So we did 20 times a drive, 20 likes subscribe. Is there anything Vibe? 20 surf the Vibe. Yeah, what was that?

That was our fucking subtitle for 20 Sun and Sea. How about 20 Surf the Vibe, colon, sun, sea. Oh, alright. Oh, look back. A Macroi retrospective. 2045! You're not gonna find it in silence. We will! That's the only thing I can say. Can't find it in silence.

I do like boys back on the menu, frankly, but. What's it mean? What does boys back on the menu mean? What does any of this mean? What does voice back on the menu mean? What do you mean? Justin, is your camera not go up? There he is. Who are you Griffin?

20, Clive, Clive, Clive. 20 justified. Clive. 2020 crime. Clive, 2020 Clive. Owen or Oh, you're so close, Gryven.

They are counting on me to come back. Yeah, and you know, time goes by so quickly. Who knows how old they are now? Daddy Mummy Live. Daddy Mummy Live. Your parents on display. Buddy Funny Live. 20 Funny Live. 20 Funny Live.

Please come to our shows. 20. 20 Brothers Live. You guys have got to let go of this self-serving thing. I don't know what to tell you. 20. Oh, I thought you had it. 20 underside.

The. Flip it over. CD belly. 20 under drive. 20 underside. Underdrive. Flip it over. Flip that shit. 20 under drive. Take your sleazy. 20 under drive. Take your sleazy. Underdrive. What it over. Flip that shit. 20 underdrive. Take your sleazy.

20 underdrive, take your sleazy. Underdrive, what's that mean? It's the opposite of overdrive. Kick it into underdrive. Pedal off the metal. Your full-throated endorsement of failing to live up to your potential is so antithetical. I'm just saying, we put so much aspirational shit.

We put so much pressure on people. Can I say something? Every year, we also say every year, we keep doing these aspirational ones. I don't necessarily think we are. I just think people wanna aspire. Is there something about, okay. I don't necessarily think we are. I just think people wanna aspire. Is there something about, okay.

Okay. Honey, now you drive. Wait. Give up control. Honey, now you drive. Now you drive. Honey. It's cool, cause it's like a script that you're supposed to read when you're driving.

Honey. And you say to your partner, honey, now you drive. Well, it doesn't have to apply to just driving or just partners. It can be a friend, a family member, something where it's just like, you know what? I've been making all the decisions, now you drive. Buddy, buddy, buddy, bye the decisions, now you drive. Buddy, buddy, buddy, buddy, bye.

Buddy, now you drive. Buddy, now you drive. Jesus take the wheel. Buddies are for life. Buddies are for life. Buddy, no, sounds so much, sounds nothing like 2025. Buddy, you're my life. Worse. By Bon Jo 2025. Buddy, you're my life. Worse.

By Bon Jovi. Buddy Buddy Life. Buddy Buddy Life. Buddy Buddy Life, friends to the end. Buddy. Is there something about Buddy's four life? No, but there is Buddy Buddy Life. Buddy Second Life.

Funny, Funny Tummy Life. Huh. Tummy Buddy Life. It's time to find your tummy buddy. Now as the one Griffin who keeps asking, what's that mean? I'm gonna have to turn it around on you here. So this is a guy, this is a character, obviously, named Tummy Buddy.

Huh? And everybody has one? Yeah, everybody has a Tummy Buddy. And this is their life. You live life, it's an enjoyment, it's aspirational, cause it's telling you to live your life like a tummy buddy. So is a tummy buddy a person, a character, or is it like, I'm so glad you asked Justin.

Tummy buddies eat their meals backwards. That means dinner at the beginning of the day, lunch in the middle, and breakfast at the end. One of the crazy idiosyncratic things about Tummy Buddies. You're saying funny Tummy Buddy? Not funny Tummy Buddy, what are you talking about? That doesn't make any goddamn sense, Justin. It's Tummy Buddy life.

Tummy Buddy life. Tummy Buddy life. Back to the pasture. I don't know, wherever Tummy Buddies live. The Patch. Tummy buddy life. The truth is. I feel like we hit, I feel like we're so close

to jumping off the edge. We just need a good subtitle to catch us there. I feel like you, it was right there Griffin. Tummy buddy life. Tummy buddy life, no one eats alone. 20 buddy life. A tummy buddy is not someone you eat meals with. Right. Or could it be?

Why not? Why isn't it? Tell me buddy life. Tell me buddy life, no one eats alone. Yeah. And that is like, if you see someone you're alone, it's like, hey, tell me buddies, and then you make a new friend.

Tell me buddy life, gather round. Gather round the table. Room at the table. Tell me buddy life, room at the table. Tell me buddy life. Tell me buddy life. Tell me buddy life. Tell me buddy life.

Tell me buddy life. Tell me buddy life. Tell me buddy life. Tell me buddy life! Tell me buddy life! Tell me buddy life! Tell me buddy life! Tell me buddy life! Tell me buddy life! Tell me buddy life! Room at the table! Set the table! Fix a plate! Everybody eats. Room for more.

Tummy buddy life. Pull up a plate. Tummy buddy life is awesome and I'll tell you why. It can mean generosity of spirit. Yeah. Be a tummy buddy and give. Tummy buddy could mean uh oh, I don't have any adult friends. Oops, I need to make a few tummy buddies.

I need some tummy buddies. Maybe that means I go out to lunch every now and then with one of my peripheral social contacts. Yeah. Yeah. Cause there's room at the, pull up a seat. There's room at the table. What's more actionable? Room at the table isn't.

That's very passive. I want, I want Tummy Buddy Life. I really think the alliteration and the forcefulness of Tummy Buddy Life, pull up a plate. Pull up a plate. That's not the part you do with plates though, is my only, you don't pull a plate. I know, that's why it's a comedy show, you fucking.

No, no, no, no, don't, don't please use, we're so close by. Ty went on. Ty went on! Dig in! T-tell me buddy life... Tie one on is... I think that's about... That's... yeah, drinking dude. Dig in... Get your fill.

Get fi... my... Tell me buddy life... I-Fixins come free. Tell me buddy life... Tell me buddy life... Tell me buddy life. Chew on it. Tell me buddy life. I don't want to tell people how to eat or how much to eat or anything.

Take a bite. I don't even think I want it to be about food. Take a bite out of love. Tell me buddy life. Pull up a chair. Pull up a chair at the table. Set the table. Breaking bread. Pull up a story. Tummy buddy life.

Pull up a smile. Pull up a smile. Pfft. You know. Pfft. You know. Pfft. You know.

Pfft. You know. Pfft. You know. Tummy buddy life. Now you're ready to wail. No. Ha ha.

Behind the bezels. No, listen. Pull up a smile. No, listen, Tummy Buddy Life, pull up a smile. I think it's a very low bar. Tummy Buddy Life, sweeter together. Tummy Buddy Life, yummy together. Together, Tummy Buddy Life.

Yummy together. We already did Stronger Together. Oh, you're right, shit. Yeah, what about this? Tummy Buddy Life. We already did Stronger Together. We can't do another- Oh, you're right, shit. Yeah, what about this? Tell me, buddy, life. And then nothing? No. I just said it a second ago, it was very good.

You did- Yummy buddy, tell me buddy life. No seconds till everybody eats. I'm inviting you to the table. I want you. Open invitation. This is literally, I think, the actionable part of this year,

generosity of spirit and also have a meal with your friend. Yes. Tummy buddy life. Be my tummy buddy. Open arms, open mouths. 20 buddy life. Tummy buddy life. pull up a smile. I thought you were gonna say something else.

Can I just say pull up a smile? Justin just took two and a half minutes of body work that he just did off screen and then he came back and said the same shit. Tell me Buddy Life, pull up a smile is really doing it for me. It makes me happy in a way I can't explain. Maybe it's because I'm broken by two hours of this. But tell me buddy life, pull up a smile.

This is a, this is a not just a, this is a, is this our longest episode ever? 100%. 100%. Listen, how about this? Tell me buddy life, pull up a smile. Why are we talking about pulling up smiles? Why do we care about smiles?

It doesn't have anything to do with meals or food or friends? It's like pull up a chair or fill up a plate. You pull up a smile. And if it's like, if you don't feel it for your fellow human, the least you could do is like, pull up a smile. Just pull up one smile. Hey, I could throw you that. I'll pull up a smile for you.

Hey, there it is. You know, I'm pulling up smiles right now, Griffin. Pagliacci over here, pretending he doesn't have a bond me upstairs, just calling his name. No, we're all giving up a lot right now, for sure. Is it also maybe showing our hand that two out of three of us are very hungry

and we're landing on Tommy Buddy Life? Yep, that's gonna happen. That is gonna happen. That can happen. Tummy buddy life. May art triumph. Tummy buddy life, truth and art. Cause it's the art. Tummy buddy life.

You keep saying. Tummy buddy life. Tummy buddy life. Fuck! We're so close. We're so close! My body is seizing up from the... I need a tummy buddy now! Tummy buddy life. Tummy buddy life coming in hot. The side of smiles. Tummy Buddy Life.

Making room. Tummy Buddy Life. Scooch on over. Share. Tummy Buddy Life. Share, share. Tummy Buddy Life, share. Tummy Buddy Life, dare to share.

20 Buddy, 20. Tummy Buddy Life, dare to share. Tummy Buddy Life, dare to share. Twomb, 20 buddy, 20. Tummy buddy life, dare to share. Tummy buddy life, dare to share. Yeah, okay. It encapsulates everything we're going for. Generosity of spirit, share a meal, share a story. Share a feeling. Share a feeling.

Pull up a smile. Tummy buddies, you know what I mean? Tummy buddy life, dare to share. We all love tummy buddies a lot. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We can't step away from tummy buddies. Cause if we, here's the, hey listener,

you might be at home and you might be thinking, there's no way they're going with tummy buddies, right? Let me tell you what tummy buddies is. Tummy buddies is a like eight inch by eight inch rock that the three of us are standing on. We're sharing this small rock together. If we take a step away from Tummy Buddies, we fall into an abyss of possibility.

Cause like, I don't know what the fuck we land on if we go away from Tummy Buddies. If you don't like Tummy Buddies life, you should stop listening. Cause it's definitely. It's definitely gonna be Tummy Buddy life. There's no way it's not tummy buddy life I was just picturing us standing on that eight inch rock

and thinking about mutually assured destruction and then I thought about like mutually assured smiles tummy buddy life, mutually assured support tummy buddy life Dare to share is really getting me Twen- Twen- Tummy buddy life, Dare to Share. Griffin, I think you're just digging your heels, man.

No, man, I think it's good, I think it's good, I think it's good, I think it's good. I'm trying to imagine it, I'm trying to imagine seeing it. Care to Share? I wanna see it. Then maybe it's a question, Care to Share. Whoa, Care to Dare to Share? Well, Care to Share. Here's what I like about Care to Share. Care to Share

is a question, that's playing with form a little bit. Ha- Ca- Oh. Tell me buddy life. Care to dare to share? Tell me buddy life. Tell me buddy life. Share your chair. Care to dare to share? Dare to care to share.

Dare to share a care. I lost it. 20 buddy life. Dare to care. 20 buddy life truths. Now here's what I like about care to share. Care to share would apply in both you're walking up to a table. Someone's eating alone. You're eating alone. I like about care to share. Care to share would apply in both, you're walking up to a table, someone's eating alone,

you're eating alone, you can say care to share, right? Share the meal together. But I'm also asking you the listener, do you care to share with people who need it? Yeah, or do you care to share your life and time with your friends? That's the thing I'm most drawn to, because it involves me eating with a friend,

which I do like and I don't really do that much anymore. Care to share? Dare to, dare to, dare to care also hits good for me because that's not like caring about, it gets harder to do in these troubling times. Dare to care is powerful. 20 buddy, 20 buddy life. Tummy buddy life.

You keep saying 20 buddy, which makes me worry this is not mim care. Tummy buddy life. You keep saying 20 buddy, which makes me worry this is not mimetic. Tummy buddy life. No, I said tummy. Tummy buddy life. Now is, 20 buddy life dare to care? Don't say it again. No, no, no, hear me out.

Is tummy buddy life making it too much about food? No. Okay. No. Tummy buddy life. Dare to care. Dare to care. Tummy buddy doesn. Dare to care. Dare to care. Tummy buddy doesn't have to mean food. I wouldn't say that out loud first.

I understand, this is what I'm saying. You can just be tummy buddies with someone. Tummy buddy life, dare to care. It's a special friendship. Tummy buddy life, a special friendship. Tummy buddy life, dare to care. Yeah? Yeah. I'm sitting back down. I just feel like the form could be played with a little bit. No, shut up Griffin.

Griffin, here's what I will say to you, Griffin. When you go into the chat of our staff and we tell them that the year's theme is Tommy Buddy life. Dare to care. Dare to care. It is going to hit in a pretty major way. I think Griffin. It's all going to be worth it. It's all going to be worth it.

Griff. You wait. You wait, you wait. And when we tell our wives, our children, our friends. They're gonna think. We have to text MacArthur Genius Award winner, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and tell him what we settled on. Cause he asked us yesterday.

I'm worried about Griffin. I'm always worried about Griffin. no more so now than usual. Dare to care is obviously- Oh gosh, I haven't been recording. No, I'm just, I just- Tummy buddy life is good, that stays, obviously. Dare to care is a beautiful sentiment. Yeah, balanced out by tummy buddy life. Dare to care is a beautiful sentiment.

Yeah, balanced out by tummy buddy life. Yeah, there is balance there. Isn't there? Because you hear tummy buddy life and you're like, what the fuck? And then you get the dare to care and you're like, oh, shit. Huh, maybe I should care about what tummy buddies are.

I wasn't gonna learn about this. Yeah, it really pulls you back in. Just as you start to think like, that's really weird. I don't care about this. Oh wait. I'm gonna really quickly go on Urban Dictionary and look up tummy buddies. And that was the last episode.

My brother and me. Tummy buddy life, dare to care. Tummy buddy life, I feel like I always dare to care. I care too much, if anything. Okay, well, but maybe care about different things. It's not about you. It's maybe care about different things. Or care in a better way.

Share your care. It's dare to care, Griffin. Dare to care is what it is. You know what, guys? You keep saying it wrong and that's scaring me. You know what, guys? I'm not 100% on it. I'm like 94% on it.

Dare to care is great. I planted my flag so fucking hard with it's not gonna be jump and drive, now you're ready to wail. And you also pitched tummy buddy life, and we were with you. I just, I feel like I used up my one black ball on that one.

I think tummy buddy life, dare to care, is very, very good. Thank you. We're calling it. There's a balance there. He said he's 94%. We're? It's not. That's a balance there. He said he's 94% We're? It's not.

That's an A Justin, we're calling it. Justin call it. Say it Griffin, here's what I want from Griffin. Hey, I want Griffin to say the year's theme one time like he means it and like he likes it. That's what I want Griffin to say the year's theme one time like he means it and like he likes it. That's what I want to hear. I want Griffin to call it is what I'm saying. Griffin, call it.

Tummy buddy life. Dare to care. Yes. Okay, okay, okay. I'm Justin. Yep, I'm Travis. Thanks, Montane. We gotta save various other stuff we should say here. Yep, I'm Travis. Thanks, Montaigne. We gotta say there's other stuff we should say here.

Yeah, I'm Travis. That's it, yeah, that's it. Are we sure though? Are we absolutely certain? Say it, Griffin. We're not doing this. We can't be doing this. Say it. The year's theme is Tummy Buddy Life, Dare to Care. It feels preachy.

It feels a little preachy. Tummy Buddy Life feels preachy? Dare to Care feels a little preachy. It feels a little preachy. Tommy, buddy life feels preachy. Dare to care feels a little balanced. It's balanced. It's about balance Griffin. That's the god damn balance Griffin. It's the balance of it Griffin. Dare to care Griffin.

It can't be silly shit and silly shit. I wanna be with you guys. That's peanut butter and peanut butter. You're so off Mike. Feel these's hard. I wanna be with you guys. I wanna dare to care about this. Maybe I should follow the thing. Yeah.

That's cool actually because- Because it's cool to care. You're worried that it's too serious. Okay, and now I'll just put all the cards on the table. I think dare to care kinda sucks, but I'll follow it into itself. I'll Dare to Care so hard this year, by the end of it, I'll be unrecognizable.

That's cool, man. Yeah, that's cool to care. I think it sucks, but if I used it, then I wouldn't think it sucks. This is my thing, is we live in a world with too much jaded preachy, preachy, preachy, preachy. Griffin thinks there's too much caring. That's our problem.

Yeah, that's exactly it. Griffin thinks everybody's caring so much. It's not that it's super preachy, I hate that, but. If I use it, I'll get on board with it by the end of it. Does that make sense? If I use it, I'll get on board with it by the end of it. Does that make sense? It's immediately actionable to the people making it. And that is really strong and plays with form. What about this?

Yeah. We were done. If you're about to change the juice, I'll lose my fucking board. We were done. Yeah, I know, I agree, I agree. Truth or dare to care? Tummy buddy time, dare to care.

Nope. You fucked it up. Tummy buddy life. Tummy buddy life. Tummy buddy time, though, can we? No! Well, hold on, because now it's time for- Then it's buddy tummy time.

That sounds so much like time for Teletubbies, and that's not our- Buddy tummy time, strengthen your core much like time for telly tuppies. And that's not our- Buddy tummy time strength in your core, but we're not doing that. Tummy buddy life, dare to care. Thank you. My name is Justin McRoy. I'm Travis McRoy.

I'm Travis McRoy. I'm about to go eat three hot dogs. My brother, my brother, me, kiss your dad, square on the lips. ["It's Better With You"] It's better with you. My life, ah ah ah ah ah.
