Even though the three of us are openly displaying the inevitable crawl towards the grave with our greying hair and our outdated references, we are still here to help. We still know all the cool things..., like the amount of wrestling one can watch with 2 kids, new and creative curses, and how many sides are in a square.Suggested talking points: Shakeup in the Curse Rankings, Set Faisons to Stun, A Square is a Half Octagon, Do You Suffer From Need?, Story-Driven PantingHarmony House: https://harmonyhousewv.com

Starting point is 00:00:00 The McElroy brothers are not experts and their advice should never be followed. Travis insists he's a sexpert, but if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it. Also, this show isn't for kids, which I 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've never seen what was coming for me Hangs at the skate park, hangs by the beach
Starting point is 00:00:39 My life, it feels like My 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 up? This is Griffin McElroy, the youngest brother, built Ford Tough.
Starting point is 00:01:25 What are we doing today, guys? Did you see that I shortened? I shortened my things. I did. I felt good. Oh, a culling. And I'll be honest, Trav, I felt like you were giving me a little bit more room to play, because sometimes I worry about, you know, catchphrase fatigue by the time it gets around to me.
Starting point is 00:01:41 But it does feel like I have, you're leaving me a little bit of corn on the cob for me on the big corn cob we share. I'm gonna be faster than fear of someone else talking. Oh, that's a good one. Yeah. You would describe your relationship with other people talking as a fear?
Starting point is 00:01:57 Well, cause it's so boring, you know, when someone else talks and it's just not as good. Hey, we got an update from Jimmy O regarding our- Jimmy O! Our swear data. Okay, I was gonna say- Swear stats. Much, much love, Jimmy O.
Starting point is 00:02:11 I don't remember who that is, but now- Jimmy O gave us our, at that point, I think only a couple years on what curse words he said the most. And I think last episode we talked about like, curse words we used the most and things like that. Can I just say before we get to it, Jimmy O, thanks for sending all that stuff to our dad.
Starting point is 00:02:29 Got me in a lot of fucking trouble, Jimmy O. When dad found out how much I cuss, I got in so much trouble, Jimmy O. I'm coming for you. I do like, now I have an image too of like, every time we cuss, Jimmy being like, and having to like go into like an abacus and like sliding one bead over to the right.
Starting point is 00:02:47 Dark, sticky abacus. So at this point, Jimmy has gone through 443 episodes where he could find the transcripts from 2010 to 2024. So in 443 episodes, collectively, Yeah. 9811 swears. Well, once we get to 10,000, Malcolm Gladwell says we'll finally be pretty good at it.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Yeah. Interestingly, there's been a shakeup in the rankings. No, no freaking way. I am no longer in those, in that count, the cleanest brother. Wow. Is it me? No, Griffin.
Starting point is 00:03:28 No, God no. Justin, Justin, 288. Travis, 2282. Griffin, 4952. I need to get, I gotta get right with Christ. There is no other way to say it I gotta get right with Christ. That's incredible Griffin. There is no other way to say it.
Starting point is 00:03:47 That is not, that is not, okay, that's not a slight difference. No, it's a doubling. It's more than both of me and Justin put together. Together, what's wrong with you? I am worried sometimes that the things I'm saying aren't gonna hit. And I do feel like sometimes putting
Starting point is 00:04:09 a little bit of cursing in there is like putting a little bit of, putting an extra shot of espresso in it. A little skewed humor. It's not even skewed, Travis. It does nothing to change the perspective or content of the thoughts. I'm a little worried, honestly,
Starting point is 00:04:25 that my number is higher just from how much we've talked about Griffin's language on the show. Like to discuss Griffin's language, I'm cautious about even participating because I don't want to get down in the gutter where his mind is. It scares me a little bit. Travis. Now, Jimmy does say, Justin,
Starting point is 00:04:46 that you have the most variety in your swears. Well, that's even, I almost did it just there, that's even worse for me. Because that means that I'm cussing a lot with the same ones. I'm guessing F is up there. Justin's the only one brave enough to say anal, escort, and cocksucker on the air.
Starting point is 00:05:05 So, escort Jimmy. Now hold on. Anal Jimmy? Anal Jimmy-o? Now Griffin talks about escorts a lot, but I don't think of that as a profane act. Yeah, I also call my proctologist my anal escort because he is the one who kind of guides me
Starting point is 00:05:22 down that strange and winding path. Griffin also doesn't know how to pronounce analgesic, and I don't know if there is some sort of AI thing in the works here that maybe is misinterpreted. And I talk a lot about the just sort of insufferable escort missions from Metal Gear Solid 2, Sons of Liberty, a lot, and yet, are these being counted against me, Jimmy O?
Starting point is 00:05:44 Anal Jimmy O? I will counted against me, Jimmy O? Anal, anal, Jimmy O? Yeah, Jimmy O, I'm gonna have to see the dictionary you're plugging these into to get this sorted out. Yeah, this is it. They would let you say anal and escort on Club Penguin. So I think it's probably okay on my brother, my brother and me, don't you think?
Starting point is 00:06:01 Now for stock analysts, for market analysts, analysts, yeah, surprising news, anus is on the rise 79% per year. That's exciting information. Every year, anus is really expensive. Weirdly, anal is down, anus is up. So we're talking about it in the, what is that, present participle tense a lot more often these days, which is up. So we're talking about it in the, what is that? Present participle tense a lot more often these days,
Starting point is 00:06:27 which is cool. Let's just say, let's get the witch hazel out. The anal's really expanding. We've gotta bring it in. So ass, okay, we've got some breakdown of the top three. Yeah. Ass, 728 total. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:42 8% of Justin swears are ass, 8% of griffins are ass, 8% of Griffins are ass, 5% of Travis. Jimmy O, that's pretty deep intel my friend. You've really crunched the numbers on this one Jimmy O. Now interesting, a shocking, I would say, upset shit outpaced fuck.
Starting point is 00:07:05 No way. Yeah, shit, 3,610. Now who do you think said shit the most? I don't know. Probably me, just because of the law of large numbers. 43% of Griffin's curse words are shit. Yeah. 29% of Justin's swears are shit.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Yeah. 37%. So I outpaced Justin on shit. That's cool. Right behind Griffin. Now, fuck. Where are we on? I'm still king of bastards, right? I'm still riding high on Bastard Mountain, right?
Starting point is 00:07:36 I have to imagine. Fuck, 2,189. Yeah. 21% of Justin's swears are fuck. Interesting, Griffin and I neck and neck 24% of Justin's swears are fuck. Interesting, Griffin and I, neck and neck, 24% of our swears. Now Griffin is still, can't stress enough, almost 5,000 where I'm at like 2,000.
Starting point is 00:07:54 So per capita, a lot more fucks for Griffin. I'm King Fuck of Bastard Mountain. Yes. Absolutely. You guys are, I would ask Jimmy, I think that these conversations should be exercised. Yeah, this is clinical. Because I feel like. This doesn't count, Jimmy.
Starting point is 00:08:14 We can't talk about this unless we use those body. I'm allergic to bad science, Jimmy. Well, give me one moment. You see, James, this is a clinical discussion. And by inserting yourself into the data you have compromised it. So we are needing to quarantine off this fucking hot fucking jizz joint
Starting point is 00:08:33 box fuck ass Wait, Jimmy's not listening I'm a real piss dick Crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, crotch chop, Crotch Chop, Crotch Chop, I'm doing the Crotch Chop! Travis, Crotch Chop Jimmy-O with us! Hey Jimmy! Hey Jimmy, what are you doing about this shit? I'm starting to lose all meaning to Crotch Chop though, if I do it too much. Are you kidding me?
Starting point is 00:08:54 I never see a Crotch Chop out there. Whenever anyone I see hit anyone else with a Crotch Chop, it takes my breath away. Especially, I love a laxadaisical Crotch Chop. Yeah, well, oh, just so, walk around the, when I see someone bust out a, while I am just like out in public, it's like the food critic scene in Ratatouille, just like the camera zooms into my face
Starting point is 00:09:16 and I remember myself telling everybody, fuck, in ninth grade, I thought our band's drum line invented the crotch chop. I thought that our, cause I didn't watch wrestling, so I thought that we just had a really cool drum line invented the crotch chop. I thought that our, cause I didn't watch wrestling. So I thought that we just had a really cool drum line that had the really vibe all their own. The crotch chop is so cool for so many reasons.
Starting point is 00:09:33 I think the best reason is because traditionally when you cross your arms X over something, you're saying like no to it. So the crotch chop would be like a sort of a cool. For TikTok, can you demonstrate the crotch chop? Cause I feel like people don't know what it is. You have to visibly- Yeah, move the mic.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Yeah, headphones off. That's better. Thank you, yeah. Boom, powerful. Whoa! Whoa! He's doing it! That's good.
Starting point is 00:10:00 It's really good. And what's great, Hey Griffin, can you get back on headphones for a second? Just for the podcast. So Griffin, can you get back on headphones for a second? Just for the podcast. So Griffin, as you know, vampires are very popular. Can you go from like a vampire rising from the crypt to a crotch chop in one fluid kind of swing? Cause I think that could be the next thing.
Starting point is 00:10:16 So it could be like, pre-if? Yeah, right? I think that that could be a powerful new thing in vampire mythology. There's so many wrestlers across the WWE and AEW who are flirting with being a vampire, and I really wish someone would finally just like,
Starting point is 00:10:34 fucking do it. It'd be cool if they did like a, just like wrestling, but they were monsters, like. I mean, there is Kaiju Big Battle. There are some folks fucking with that, but I would love to see that in the mainstream. Universal, you're trying to get that monsters universe going.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Yeah. This is a wrestling idea for free. Have they had one that is supposedly AI yet? Oh, that's cool, like their body. They had a wrestler who's like, is just, is AI. So not a robot? No, is like, is just, is AI. Like is- So not a robot. No, is like, is, it doesn't, is powered completely by AI.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Oh, okay, cool. He's an AI powered wrestler. Like in- Meet Dave? But that's a little bit right, yeah. Yeah, sure, yeah, that's perfect, yeah. Now what would be great, Justin, is if they did that,
Starting point is 00:11:19 but for the first like 20 or so matches, they kept just like walking aimlessly into like a turn style, like turnbuckle, right? And like the ropes and everything. And it took the AI a while to figure out like what, how to wrestle, right? How to do it right. Apparently there was a tag team,
Starting point is 00:11:40 Bill Eadie was Super Machine and there was a giant machine dressed up like a robot's giant machine played by, of course, Andre the Giant. I bet that went down pretty smoothly. I would love that. Sorry, you're saying somewhere, is there an image of Andre the Giant dressed as a robot,
Starting point is 00:11:57 or are we just like, are you keeping that to yourself, or where you at? I mean, let's go ahead and check it. No. No, that's been wiped from the internet for being too hot for TV. God damn it, AI, you're so fucking foolish all the time. This is, I searched Andre the Jo-Bot, Andre the Giant.
Starting point is 00:12:16 Andre the Jo-Bot dressed as a wrestler. Andre the Giant robot wrestling. Fucking Google AI was like, well, Andre the Giant never wrestled robots. He was a highly successful professional wrestler. Is that what you thought I was asking? Did Andre the Giant ever wrestle robots? Did it sound like AI got scared by the question
Starting point is 00:12:37 and then like answered too fast? And then was probably like, well, nobody wrestles robots. What the fuck am I talking about? I'm dumb. Last data point, by the end of the 443 episodes, our average swearing went from 20 swears per app to 22 swears per app and counting.
Starting point is 00:12:55 That's just inflation. I think we- Yeah, that's true. That's just- We're gonna see more about how much things cost. So that's inflation. That's how inflation works. That's how inflation works. Read a book. How would you guys feel about helping people?
Starting point is 00:13:07 That used to be a big part of this. Oh, I love it. Justin. I would love to. For me? Thanks. I'm a fast-paced girl and I love making plans with my friends. Same, same.
Starting point is 00:13:16 Yeah. Unfortunately, there's always- I love this book that you're writing, Justin, this teen fiction. Yeah, sure. About like a girl who turns into a car or is parked car and it was going. I'm a fast-paced girl and I love making plans with my friends. Unfortunately, they're not always glued to their phone It's like the earliest teen fiction. About like a girl who turns into a car or is parked car and he was going.
Starting point is 00:13:25 I'm a fast paced girl and I love making plans with my friends. Unfortunately, they're not always glued to their phone waiting on my every word. How long is it polite to wait for confirmation to plans before I reach out to another friend to see if they're free instead? Is there a polite way to say there's an extended timeframe
Starting point is 00:13:39 I need a response by? Probably not. Please help brothers. That's from Impatient Indiana Inviter. I love. This gets me. It gets me too, and I really love how much you just own it. My friends have to get on my fucking level
Starting point is 00:13:54 if they wanna get with me. How quickly can I drop these fucking zeros? The word chill is not in this question. No! Not chill at all, but that's cool. Cause you're like, this is me, this is us. And this is how I roll, help me. And there are times where time is of the essence.
Starting point is 00:14:13 Absolutely. Right? Where like you have two tickets to a thing happening that day or something, right? And it's just like, I asked you, I haven't gotten an answer yet, time is ticking, and you run the risk of asking someone else, and then person one comes back and they're like, I'd love to, and then you gotta be like,
Starting point is 00:14:31 oh, you missed it. Donald Faison is at this farmer's market. Get your ass down here. It looks like he's wrapping up. If you don't get a response to that in 60 seconds, first of all, you need to really consider whether or not that person is a true acquaintance or not. And a true Faison fan.
Starting point is 00:14:52 A true Faison. And then also- They should have text notifications set up specifically for Faison. Oh, you can disturb, you can break the Do Not Disturb firewall. If there's any kind of Faison encounter at all, do not sweat it, guys. I will not because- Let's any kind of phase on encounter at all, do not sweat it guys. I will not because-
Starting point is 00:15:06 Let's talk about the do not disturb firewall specifically in context with Clinton, Emile, McElroy. That's an interesting one. And I can I say- I've been waiting to unpack this for a while. I like this strategy a lot. And I love my dad.
Starting point is 00:15:21 I love my dad too. I love my dad too. And this is, okay. So dad, it says when you try to text dad, and it has been this way for a very, I'm just going to double check, okay. When you try to text dad, it says, dad has notification silenced. Yes.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Always. Yes. Like always. And this is not, that's not that surprising, right? Because, okay, that's just whatever, I get it. That's a very visible symbol you're sending to the world. Dad insists that he doesn't know how it keeps happening. This is the claim.
Starting point is 00:15:50 This is the thing. This is the thing. And this is a man who routinely pretends to be bad at things that I know he has done. Like he is not, he's at least 10% not as bad as he appears to be. This man has beaten the Elden Ring videotape. Like he has solved more complex things.
Starting point is 00:16:14 He programmed many VCRs in his day. He knows how to work it. And phones only do certain things. More than that. This man has handed me his phone and said, I don't know, juice, it just keeps happening. And I'll see the Do Not Disturb is turned on. And I'll go into his phone, I'll turn it off.
Starting point is 00:16:31 And then I'll look and see if there's a schedule to see that it's like turning, but no schedule, nothing like that. It's off. And then I'll go to text this man, literally an hour later. Yeah, Do Not Disturb is on. And it's not a glitch, he doesn't respond to text a man literally an hour later. Yeah. Do not deserve is art. And it's not a glitch. He doesn't respond to text messages.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Yeah. The only possibility is that dad swipes up to do something else. And then he goes, I like the moon, and just hits the moon button. Probably does get stoked. Activate moon mode. I like the moon.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Yeah, man. Lunar powered. The anti-gravity. Goar powered. Anti-gravity, go! So every time you text that, you then have to push the button. It's like, notify him anyway. He's like, I'm not gonna play the game. I kind of enjoy having your phone be sort of like a PO box that you can go and interact with other people
Starting point is 00:17:21 at your leisure, and that is what is expected in society. That would be dope. And you boys have a lot better grasp on interacting with human beings in a normal way than I do. Bold of you to say, but please continue. In this regard, how gauche would it be to group text people to say, I got one ticket, first come first serve.
Starting point is 00:17:48 Oh, that's cool. Right, like, private me off the chain, off thread. Yes. Right? But you have four tickets. Oh, okay. So you're creating urgency where there is no urgency. That's not what I was doing, but-
Starting point is 00:18:04 That's great, yeah, man. Sorry, Travis, I misunderstood. I thought we were lying. Oh, no, but I'm just saying, I'm pitting people against each other for my love. Right. I wouldn't hear that. The other one would be to text with the phrase, this is a limited time offer at the end.
Starting point is 00:18:18 And I don't know how you guys feel about that. There should be, well, I guess this is what- While supplies last, maybe. I guess this is what- Wild Supplies last, maybe? I know everybody's like wild about using these alternative messaging programs to coordinate war and stuff, but also people are like, yeah, man, you can do it super secret so the thing
Starting point is 00:18:41 disappears really fast. Is this why it is? Because then you can be like, hey, what's up? Head into the Donald Faison show, got one ticket left. Are you in? Two minutes. Seth Faison's just done. That's the name of his one man comedy show that he does.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Are you fucking in? This message will self-destruct in two minutes. That's an inner, maybe we should normalize unsending messages a few minutes after you send them. Yeah. Like maybe it's like you get it, it's like, nope, I deleted it. You didn't get that one. I should've read it. I don't know what it said.
Starting point is 00:19:12 Yeah. Weird. If I said, hey, Justin, do you wanna go to the fuckin' Faison show with me tonight? And then you stood there and looked at me silently for two minutes? Do you think that I'm going to continue to offer this social engagement to you? Offer rescinded.
Starting point is 00:19:27 No. This is also why we should, and listen, it's a bit of a throwback, but normalize valets who go to your friend's home with a silver platter with the invitation written on it, and then they bring back a response, you know, and you just get the card right there. One, jobs creator, that's number one.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Two, a lot more silver trays moving about in the world, so that's production right there. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? This is gonna be good for the economy in a lot of ways. I feel uncomfortable when I door dash like some Pepto-Bismol because I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to the CVS and back in my condition. I'm so self-conscious about that.
Starting point is 00:20:11 The idea that I would ever use a similar service so that someone could roll up to a friend's house and be like, hey, you can go and be on Cod tonight. Griffin asks, he paid me $6 plus a nine dollar service fee to ask you, cod tonight? I will say though, man, jobs creator, the other day, that remind me of a funny, the other day, the girls and I took the girls to Lowe's, we needed some gardening stuff,
Starting point is 00:20:37 and I got the girls those extra large lollipop things that they have at checkout. Love those. Like the big spherical ones? Yeah, like the ones that are like wrapped, things that they have at checkout. Love those. Then later big spherical ones. Yeah. Or like, oh yeah yeah. Yeah, like the ones that are like wrapped up, you know, that are like,
Starting point is 00:20:49 The ones where they have flavors other than cotton candy and bubble gum, but what's the point? Yeah, exactly. But the flavors also slap ass, why don't they make smaller lollipops taste that good? It's the kind of lollipop where it's like, no child could finish this in a day,
Starting point is 00:21:01 let alone a single setting. I love that one. Anyways. It could finish a child though, with what a huge choking hazard is. One of my dogs, Lily, destroyed one of those lollipops when my child wasn't looking. So I-
Starting point is 00:21:14 Good on your dog, man. That's an ambitious thing to take away from our dog. And so I had to go back to Lowe's before my child discovered this, to replace a lollipop. So what this looked like from a Lowe's before my child discovered this, to replace a lollipop. So what this looked like from a Lowe's perspective, because it was different checkout people. I walked in, walked straight to the checkout, got a single lollipop at Lowe's.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Did you say anything like, I'm just here for the pops? Thank God self checkout was open, but still there's an attendant there. Scan the lollipop. Sorry, sorry, jobs remover. Yeah. Sorry, good. That's what I keep track.
Starting point is 00:21:49 We got rid of one and we added one. Jimmy, get on this. The woman who was the attendant did strike up a conversation with me about my purple hair as I was checking out a single blueberries and cream lollipop. Travis, I don't feel like you, you're so far gone. I don't think you can appreciate how fucking stealth mode,
Starting point is 00:22:07 I am able to go at a Lowe's or a Home Depot, I have nothing to comment on. Breaking news. I have nothing to comment on. I'm gonna grow back out to regular hair color. Is this true? Yeah. Is this breaking news? Cause I wanna see, so it's getting pretty long now,
Starting point is 00:22:22 and I can see some- Wait, you know we're recording, right? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. We can do aesthetic updates here on the show. I can see some gray in there and I wanna see what I'm rocking with. I'm excited to go gray.
Starting point is 00:22:32 Yeah. And I'm already pretty grown out. I'm looking forward to some of those comments, Travis, starting to erk away from my direction where every comment is mostly about my progress on my slow inevitable march to the grave. Yeah, you all know we read those comments like they look so old I can't even look at them. It makes me sad.
Starting point is 00:22:53 Look at these three fucking crypt keepers. What does this mean? It makes me sad. They've aged. We're on the internet every fucking day. Come look at it. We are Truman showing ourselves. How are you not noticing these things? Blame the algorithm if you don't see how we're aging, cause we're laying it all out there. Yeah man, there ain't no hiding. We are a shitty time lapse of most of a life. I hope, Jesus Christ, we can keep this thing going that long.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Where are we at? It's like boyhood, but for old men. It would be nice to have that sort of job security. My boss, he's a he, him, dude, he's mid-50s. And I, a she, her, gal in our early 40s, keep twinning unintentionally. The accident is made more awkward by the fact that we don't like each other,
Starting point is 00:23:40 and thus we avoid acknowledging the mistake. It's happened three times, and every time it's more embarrassing. Going forward, how can I avoid dressing like my boss? Please limit advice to solutions that do not involve me not directly addressing him. That's from Drab, dressed recurringly as boss. I wanna thank you for the guardrails you've put on this
Starting point is 00:23:59 from the word go, I appreciate it. It's nice to have bumper bowling sometimes, you know what I mean? It makes it easier. I lost track of the double negative a little bit of please limit advice to solutions from the word go, I appreciate it. It's nice to have bumper bowling sometimes, you know what I mean? It makes it easier. I lost track of the double negative a little bit of please limit advice to solutions
Starting point is 00:24:10 that do not involve me not directly addressing him. I think there's an extra not in there. Oh, okay. She's not gonna talk to her boss, period. That's out. Okay, I thought she must talk to her boss. She's ready to really drag his ass down and is looking for some tips, some great shit to say. And we couldn't do that, so it's probably the other one.
Starting point is 00:24:31 There's an, okay, listen, I know this isn't what you asked, and I normally don't do those, answer a question that wasn't asked, but who wore it better? Oh, yes. You know what I mean? If you don't like your boss, and when you twing, you're out doing your boss?
Starting point is 00:24:48 Yeah. Is that so bad? Yeah, I mean. Oh, okay. You still feel threatened. You know how men are. I do. You can't limit your own style adventure
Starting point is 00:25:02 based on the adventure of another. I don't think that that's fair to ask of anyone. I think that you might raise the boss up, that might be what the boss needs. Maybe the boss has reached the threshold of what he's able to do aesthetically. And he would actually appreciate someone to show him a new way, a new path.
Starting point is 00:25:24 And maybe you'll get the big promotion you've been going for. You know what we need to bring back and need to normalize? Reversible clothing. Oh man. Right, a reversible jacket. I feel like that was a thing in the 80s
Starting point is 00:25:38 where it's like you could turn the jacket inside out and now it's a different jacket. Yeah, I'll tell you, kick ass. Reversible jacket, a different jacket. Yeah, I'll tell you kick ass, reversible jacket, one side denim, some kind of fabric, but then you flip it and then it's a rain jacket and it's waterproof. Oh shit.
Starting point is 00:25:56 One side, outside is gonna be like a khaki, a canvas, traditional outerwear sort of fabric. Inside, that slippery, loud nylon shit that keeps you nice and dry in the rain. So this is interesting because We've moved away from the question now because I love this. Yeah, this is a good garment
Starting point is 00:26:13 because no matter what you're uncomfortable. Like you are either locking it all in, right? What do you mean? And you're like, if it's a look on a day where you don't need the rain slicked. Then it would be, sorry,? And you're like, if it's a look on a day where you don't need the rain slipped. Then it would be, sorry, I think you're confused. In that case, it would be in canvas mode. It would be in denim.
Starting point is 00:26:33 And you just have slippery, gross feeling moving against your body on the inside. Moving against my shirt. I'm wearing a shirt under the jacket. I'm not like- So you need a third layer, a tear away layer. I'm sorry, Travis, are you, are you, no, you're being an asshole right now
Starting point is 00:26:48 because are you frequently leaving the house wearing only a jacket and no shirt underneath it? No, but I feel how the jacket moves against my shirt. Or I'm wearing a short sleeve thing with a long sleeve jacket. Yes. So it can't be plastic on the inside, no. It's not plastic.
Starting point is 00:27:02 This is a nice sticky tile. It's gonna be a sticky- It's like a soft, breathable, waterproof- I was close though. I think we can all agree. I was close to something there. There's something there. If it didn't rely on a non-existent fabric,
Starting point is 00:27:16 like a sort of- A comfortable raincoat fabric that feels good against your skin. It dries instantly. We're so far away from the office life. Yeah, I don't even know if I'm a Jim or Dwight anymore. What about an accent piece? Ooh.
Starting point is 00:27:36 That you make sort of like a recurring thing, that it doesn't even really matter what the rest of the look is doing because the, you know. The Riddler Kane from Batman and Robin. The Riddler Kane from Batman and Robin is a part of every look. Yeah. Plus, I think it'd be good to send a little,
Starting point is 00:27:57 little depth charge down there, little sounding wave, little test experiment to see if your boss chomps that fucking Steez. Oh, that's fun. It's important to know if you start wearing a fascinator to work and you're like, let's fucking see. And the next day the boss has like a little fascinator or fascinator adjacent thing.
Starting point is 00:28:16 You're gonna wear two fascinators. It's gonna, we're gonna be in a- And they'll learn arms race. Mm-hmm. It ain't a scene. Head race. It is, I mean, it is kind of a scene. If I see multiple people wearing multiple fascinators, that is a scene.
Starting point is 00:28:31 That's what I wanna ask, Monsieur Stump and Fallout Boys, can't it be both a scene and an arms race? Think about it. Yeah. I work as a cashier at a grocery store. And there's a customer comes- Should we go to the money zone? Should we go to the money zone?
Starting point is 00:28:45 Should we go to the money zone? Griffin, if I thought we should go to the money zone, I would not have started another question. Yeah, well, sure. Okay. That is really, that's really passive aggressive of you. I was, I think if anything, aggressive aggressive, but it wasn't just regular.
Starting point is 00:28:59 Oh, that's true. Aggressive passive. Let's go to the money zone. Okay. All right. Ahem. ["It's Better With You"] Justin and Griffin, can we have a serious conversation for once?
Starting point is 00:29:19 Oh, thank God, yes. You guys have no virtual online presence to speak of whatsoever. Certainly none that I am under any amount of control of. Exactly. And I know you're afraid. I know you're afraid of the internet. I know you are, because you're like,
Starting point is 00:29:40 I don't know how to do it. I don't even know how to set up an internet, right? First of all, it's called a website. It's not called an internet, right? The internet is what you use to set up and how you get to things, grandpa, but it's called a website. And with Squarespace, you can-
Starting point is 00:29:56 What's a website? Okay, oh my God. What's a website? Tell me now. A website is- Because you're over there, you're over there, Max fucking Hedge Room, like, what's up, Cyber Cowboys? You can't fuck with me. Y'all are so stupid, we don't know about it, Trav. You're such dumbasses. So what's a website, Trav? Tell me that.
Starting point is 00:30:05 Well, a website is like, you know how you're always putting up kind of like poster board signs on like lamp posts and walls and stuff that tell people about what's going on in your life or if you're selling things or like to talk about stuff that you're into, you know? So a website is like that,
Starting point is 00:30:22 but it lives in the computer and other people with computers and phones and stuff can't get into it. So you're into, you know? So a website is like that, but it lives in the computer and other people with computers and phones and stuff can see it. Okay, all right. Yeah? That sounded right. I was just, you were really riding,
Starting point is 00:30:36 you were really riding us pretty hard there about how we're gonna do anything. Well, I'm a cyber jockey, man, you know what I mean? So I gotta ride you analog, you analog dorks as hard as I can. You're gonna ride us analog dorks as hard as you can, man? And put you up wet? Travis. I don't think
Starting point is 00:30:55 that's accurate. I'm just trying to juice my numbers. Just trying to ride you as hard as you can and put you up wet? Yeah, cause I'm a cyber jockey and you guys- I take it back, maybe your social abilities are somehow deficient. And I think it's probably because of the,
Starting point is 00:31:13 like how jacked into the web you are at Snapsnake, that you've forgotten how things work out here. Yeah. It's been a long time since I've spent time in MeatSpace. I think that's probably, I mean, meat space is fine, square space is better. I need to touch ass. Is that what they say?
Starting point is 00:31:29 You can touch ass, you can touch grass, or you can touch gas. That last one, a lot of people don't go for. Nobody touches for free. Yeah, you can touch tasks for free. But with Squarespace, they give you everything you need to offer services and get paid all in one place, you analog nerds.
Starting point is 00:31:55 So get paid on time with professional. You've lost the fucking clock. I have. Completely, man. Get paid on time with professional, on-brand invoices, online payments, all that cool stuff, streamlining your workflow, it's all cool.

Starting point is 00:32:17 of your first purchase of a website or domain. This is what happens when we do the drive and we go two weeks without doing ads. I feel like it takes a bit of a run-up again. It takes like you gotta spin up that engine just a little bit. I do think we delivered a quality product to Squarespace just like they deliver quality products to their users
Starting point is 00:32:36 at day in, day out. That's right Squarespace, you're welcome. You're welcome and thanks for sponsoring this rebuilding season here on My Brother, My Brother and Me. We're focusing on the fundamentals right now. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, man.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, man. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, I wanna munch squad! Squad! Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, I want to munch squad! Squad! Bah, squad. It's a podcast, then a podcast profiling
Starting point is 00:33:05 the latest and greatest in brand eating. And I wanted to tell you guys, first of all, we mentioned it on Clubhouse, but I wanted to say it here that the VW3s at the mall did close. Yeah. Sitting empty currently? As far as I know, yes. So you're saying that the VW3s are the mall did close. Yeah. Sitting empty, currently?
Starting point is 00:33:26 As far as I know, yes. So you're saying it's available? Saying there's an opportunity for an enterprising young wing fan. Yes, that's right, they left all the wings. That's how you are. You're gonna need to do sort of a wing-based business. It's gonna stink like wings, so you may as well sell wings there, is sort of a wing-based business.
Starting point is 00:33:47 It's gonna stink like wings, so you may as well sell wings there. Cause you can't have a dentist office there that stinks like buffalo wings. People are not gonna come frequent that. I'm excited to open my church slash restaurant combination, wing and a prayer, come on in. Travis, that's fucking, can I tell you something? That idea's not only strong from a sort of like comedic
Starting point is 00:34:07 gag standpoint, it's also strong from a like, anytime we left church as kids, I would have definitely gone for wings. I for sure would have gone for wings. That's what I'm saying, so why not combine the experience? Yep. The collection plate, that's right, it's the plate of wings.
Starting point is 00:34:21 Big plate of wings. I will say transubstantiation on a bone in Buffalo wing is a little too visceral for my taste. That's part of it. Okay. It gets pretty. Yeah man, we don't have to even get in there any deeper. Oh, Justin just sent us a little multimedia.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Okay, all right, no nevermind, don't click that link, I got it to work now. Okay, because I clicked it and the scariest thing I've ever. Okay. Uh, alright, no, nevermind. Don't click that link, I got it to work now. Hold on. Okay, because I clicked it and the scariest thing I've ever seen appears. Yeah, it sucks. Do you suffer from need? Do you struggle to decide which one of the many TVs
Starting point is 00:34:55 playing March Madness and Buffalo Wild Wings to watch? Not anymore. Introducing the B-Dub's Vision Goggles, the perfect way to watch every single game at the same time. With its patent- patent pending mirror vision technology You get a full 360 view and with desire fashion aesthetics that rival the baroque era Oh, you'll be the coolest guy at the bar, and I'm so crazy. I'm practically giving them away Let's go sports bar. So you can actually buy these March Madness
Starting point is 00:35:22 Vision goggles first of all can we just address the fact that if you are not seeing this in real time, this buffalo monster screaming, are you inflicted with need? Is that what he said? Cause that sounds like a Dark Souls character. Yes, do you have need? Ash, ash. You have a dark.
Starting point is 00:35:38 Ash in one. Do you suffer from need? Okay. Can we get the exact wording can we get the exact wording on that extremely. Sorry is it, you should see it. At the very beginning I wanna hear his phrasing of do you have need. Oh okay, sorry.
Starting point is 00:35:55 Do you suffer from need? Do you suffer from need is like. Yeah. Sounds like something you would hear at the like sleep away camp called like ash wanderer Do you suffer from need? Perhaps my cinders could provide some suga You're stricken with desire I could chew all your desires right now
Starting point is 00:36:20 Abandon these foolish needs suck on this chicory root Let the let its pulsing vapors penetrate you. There are no needs within the great snake. That is, of course, unless my ears mistake me, that is JP Icarliac, best known for being the boss baby in the Boss Baby TV show. Oh, is it? Because I was trying to narrow that down.
Starting point is 00:36:49 It took me several listens, but I'm pretty sure it's JP Carliac. It possibly was Morgan Hulk in the X-Men 97. There were like eight SNL cast members from the last decade I thought that could have been. And I was trying to like hone in on which one. These glasses. Yeah, talk about that part of it.
Starting point is 00:37:08 Are these real things you can get? I haven't been to the URL. So I don't know, man. I was kind of afraid to get on a list. You guys can go there if you want. I actually saw this, a clip from this, prior to this on I believe a TikTok or something similar.
Starting point is 00:37:27 And immediately what I thought of was the bit in How I Met Your Mother when Ted goes to pick up wings from a restaurant and he's attempting to avoid seeing the outcome of the Super Bowl. Yeah. That's what I'm getting from this. An extremely specific reference. Indeed, indeed.
Starting point is 00:37:46 But it looks stupid in both cases, I guess is what I'm trying to say. So they really did sell it. Yeah, it is sold out now. It's sold out now, but they sold something for no reason. But it looks like duct tape together garbage. It looks like garbage that they were selling people. It's goggles, and then they have attached to the straps
Starting point is 00:38:09 a lot of maybe like small side view mirrors on a car, like six of them, so that you can watch all the games if you watch all the games at once. I think that Buffalo Wild Wings is the worst imaginable restaurant to wear such a silly looking contraption, because I do think that Buffalo Wild Wings is the worst imaginable restaurant to wear such a silly looking contraption. Because I do think that per capita the number of people who would walk up to you and just scissor kick that thing right off your dork face is probably higher than the average restaurant. I've adjusted your guys' views, sorry. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:39 I've adjusted your view, guys. This, so you could, Griff, can you talk about some viral stats on this Buffalo Wild Wings national chain? Yeah, yeah. This video. This is, and I have to imagine this is running on a lot of collegiate basketball competitions. Can you go top to bottom please? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:57 So we're looking at, first of all, B-Dub's channel's got 27.2k subscribers. That's pretty good. 22 likes on this video, not the best, but we all have off ones. 4.8 thousand views on this one that came out two weeks ago. And then there are, it looks like two comments, one of which says, I want those goggles,
Starting point is 00:39:13 and the other one's- Now that is the first comment. That was made alongside the video's launch two weeks ago. Yeah, this one- For two weeks, there were no comments, because people went to comment on it, and they looked at that comment, I want those goggles, and they thought,
Starting point is 00:39:27 that sums it up, I actually don't need to add anything. And then four hours ago, it looks like we had someone who says, this made people leave the restaurant they said the wings are too hot. Boom. Got us roasted. That's it. Only other comment on this.
Starting point is 00:39:41 There's nothing wrong with the private sector. Mm-hmm. We're doing this. We're doing great, darling, over here. Yes, it's good. We have lots of kick-ass jobs doing lots of amazing stuff for everyone. It's all good stuff.
Starting point is 00:40:01 That's the important thing. It's all good stuff. And this, some people I think get a little worked up about, a lot of restaurants, I think are worried about packaging and they're worried about the environmental footprint. Yeah. And I just want to say that I am very glad that B-Dubbbz had the foresight to make these trash goggles to put straight in the landfills. I wish they had made more of them.
Starting point is 00:40:29 It has nothing to do with Buffalo wings. The product is sale. It's not selling the food. It's not a commercial for food and the garbage paraphernalia they're hawking doesn't even promise to improve your enjoyment of the food. And yet, and yet, and yet, I want those goggles. I want those goggles. I want those goggles.
Starting point is 00:40:49 And also yet, and yet further, those three fucking saps, rubes, marks, patsies are here talking about it on our enormous podcast. God damn it, Griffin, you're right. I hate to always play that card here on the Munch Squad, but BW3's did get, I mean, they done, they got us again. Like they know what we like and what we're all about,
Starting point is 00:41:15 and so, mission accomplished there. I need everyone to go to that video and comment, I also want those goggles. Bring those goggles back. Sell those goggles some more. Just turn it in on my brother, my brother, me chat room. There's no one watching. You can go to the video.
Starting point is 00:41:32 It's got, I don't know, hopefully more views by this point. The amount of engagement you're going to give that is going to save someone's job. Yeah. Probably legit. Listen, what am I gonna do if another one shuts down? No, they'll have to open BW4s. Did we all wear red?
Starting point is 00:41:47 We didn't communicate before had. We're all in a color palette here. There's like seven colors, man. Statistically, we were gonna match up someday. You know what I mean? I mean, I guess. I have a question. My partner and I have seen many clips from WWE on Instagram. We genuinely think it seems hilarious and we should watch the show for real.
Starting point is 00:42:06 However, we have no clue how and where to start. In your opinion, how should we start watching professional wrestling? That's from wistfully wondering about wrestling in Ontario. Okay, this is great cuz I think Justin and I can kinda act as audience surrogate here to ask Griffin. Do they have like seasons, Griffin? Seasons of hitting, seasons of hitting. Yeah, I'm the wrongest guy to ask this question.
Starting point is 00:42:36 But you're the rightest one on this show. I know that much, but I do wanna stress this by saying I'm the wrongest imaginable dude. As this question, I fell off wrestling pretty hard pretty much right when we had the second kid. Pretty much that was, it turns out like the amount of time you have to invest in wrestling to follow it is exactly one second kid's worth.
Starting point is 00:42:55 Not one first kid's worth, that's a little bit bigger of a commitment, although there is a multiplicative sort of exponential effect when you start tossing more kids on the pile there. So that's, I'm well outside of it. The honest, probably best answer is probably just like, start looking at TikTok, like wrestling TikTok. I bet it's out there.
Starting point is 00:43:18 Okay, you say that, but I occasionally get served up some hot wrestling TikToks. And I've seen that Mr. Cena has recently made a big character change. Mr. Cena, again, this is something I've absorbed from clips on TikTok. I did not see this happen live.
Starting point is 00:43:33 It does sound like a very exciting idea, but Mr. Dwayne Johnson did hypnotize The Rock to turn him evil. As far as I can tell- Oh no, sorry. Say that again, sorry. He hypnotized Mr. Cena. Oh, sorry, sorry. Mr. The Rock, Dwayne Johnson, did hypnotize John Cena
Starting point is 00:43:50 to turn him evil, to make him evil. Can we talk about the alternate view of the Dwayne Johnson hypnotized the Rock? In like a jiggle and hide kind of situation? That would be like way cooler. Anyway, go ahead. So what I'm asking Griffin is, do you think I need to start back at the beginning
Starting point is 00:44:08 of Mr. Cena's career and track thrill? No, no, no, no, no. To get the full impact of it. That's not important. Pretty much you can just watch that one episode of SmackDown. And I bet you're gonna be okay. Gang, gang, gang. The shows are called Raw and SmackDown.
Starting point is 00:44:26 It ain't Severance. You don't gotta watch a bunch of supplemental shit online to like find out like, here's the deeper meaning between John Cena being activated Manchurian candidate style to attack Mr. Rhodes, his best pal I guess. You really don't need all that shit. You just, you need to see 40 seconds of someone on TikTok saying, check this out.
Starting point is 00:44:47 I wanna challenge you on that, Griffin. Okay. Because what you just said- To a wrestling match? What you just said a couple minutes ago is that the time required to keep up with wrestling is commiserate with that of caring for a small child. Sure.
Starting point is 00:45:03 So either we do need the context to enjoy the product or we don't. And I'm asking you, do you, it sounds like if the advice is just watch the show and enjoy it, it sounds like you yourself could be just watching the show and enjoying it. But it is a difference between saying, I got this podcast for you called My Brother and Me.
Starting point is 00:45:20 It's a million fucking episodes. And someone being like, how do I get into it? How do I get into it? And you say, I don't know, man, probably just watch a best of, get on YouTube, find some of their biggest clips. That takes 10 minutes. Listening to the entirety of our podcast is,
Starting point is 00:45:35 you can't do it, you'll die. You'd be dead by the end. Yeah, don't do it. Just from time and aging. There's so many curse words, dude. And so I could update myself on the present status of just the WWE universe in a good 20 to 30 minutes of cursory googling, but then I would have to watch the 8 to 9 hours of wrestling content released every single week in order to consider myself sort of literate in the space.
Starting point is 00:45:59 That's not even factoring in AEW, which has also, of course, a lot of extremely exciting stuff. And delicious, delicious root beer and hot dogs. Yeah, they do, I mean, that's a joke, but they definitely probably do sell root beer and hot dogs to most wrestle goers. And to wrestlers, they make them pay for their own hot dogs, which I think is really fucked up. Now the anatomy of a wrestling match is 70% panting.
Starting point is 00:46:26 And I can't blame you for that. Pancing? Panting, 70% panting. If you're doing it right, you're getting about three quarters panting and then about 20% set up and then 5% people, you know, flipping through the air and stomping and punching and hitting and kicking
Starting point is 00:46:43 and catching a highlight of those is the best way to consume one of those matches, because the panting, with rare exception, is not the highlight of the event. It's not story-driven panting? No, it's biologically-driven panting. Okay. It's hurts to do this stuff, and it gets you tired. As a casual fan of wrestling, by which I mean,
Starting point is 00:47:02 you know, sometimes I've watched it, sometimes I haven't. The idea's neat, yeah. It just like seems neat. Wouldn't kick it out of bed for eating crackers. I've been to wrestling events in person before, casual fan wrestling. Yeah, you know, saw Brutus the Barbecue Beefcake live. Yeah, I've seen Jake the Snake Roberts live.
Starting point is 00:47:20 We've met Jake the Snake Roberts in person. Like I don't wanna, yeah. We don't have to talk, we don't have to drop names. But when the name is as fun as Jake the Snake Roberts in person. I kinda wanna, yeah. We don't have to drop names. But when the name is as fun as Jake the Snake Roberts, you know I'm gonna be dropping it. I one time saw Sergeant Slaughter in the best way that I worked out. Yeah, it was great.
Starting point is 00:47:34 Sorry, Jesus, was there an ending to that sort of thought? There was initially Griffin, but I kinda vamped too much and forgot it. It's been? Yeah! Curseful age, I guess, man. But also, I mean, that is- It's so sad, I can't even listen to them anymore What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on?
Starting point is 00:47:46 What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on?
Starting point is 00:47:53 What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on?
Starting point is 00:48:00 What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? What the hell is going on? Did you just describe a square as a half octagon? I'm gonna stomp your ass so hard, I'm gonna take you back to the town you grew up in. My name is Dr. Dirt and I'm gonna fuck you up tonight
Starting point is 00:48:12 because of what you did to my wife? Fuck, man, it's been a long time. As a casual fan of wrestling, I really like it when the wrestling happens with some sort of extra flair. Or sometimes, especially when there's a cage, or death is part of it. Death or being killed is a thing that might happen. I like about the cage too, it makes me feel safe as the fan, knowing that the wrestlers are contained.
Starting point is 00:48:48 Can't get out. The risk of the wrestling spilling over into the audience or my home even is very reduced. Yes. That the violence and the wrestling is contained. When I would see Dean Ambrose do an extreme cage match, I would think that man who is just a lunatic for denim jeans is not gonna come out and hurt me
Starting point is 00:49:09 or try to take my jeans away. He can't get my jeans away from me now. He is incarcerated and also about to get his ass stomped by Bray Wyatt, and it's gonna be great to see. One other thing that I did want to ask about wrestling as a casual fan of wrestling, Yeah, go ahead, Juice. It does, it does seem a little bit unnerving
Starting point is 00:49:28 that I could spend a lot of time learning about a wrestler and it could just turn out that I should never know or speak of them ever again. It seems like a lot of wrestlers do get memory hold in a way where it's like, not only was that time wasted, it would be better if I didn't know of them, just because I might accidentally mention them when I'm trying to talk about someone else.
Starting point is 00:49:51 But the great thing, Juice, is that is only true of wrestling and no other art form or performance whatsoever. Yeah, but I don't, yeah, it might be a little more true in wrestling if we ran the numbers, right, Griff? I don't know, let's get Jimmy O on it, Jimmy O! Jimmy O!
Starting point is 00:50:10 Jimmy O, we need a catalog of canceled problematic people. In wrestling. As compared to all other fields. And I wanna see different columns for AEW and WWE, please. In fact, if you could split it up between the Raw and SmackDown rosters, that would be probably the most helpful data points for us.
Starting point is 00:50:29 And we're not gonna pay you for this. Jimmy, no. So important. Jimmy, no. Don't do it, Jimmy. I support art and artists, but this is just math, Jimmy-O. That ain't art. That's just math, Jimmy-O.
Starting point is 00:50:44 I mean, listen, Griffin can figure out that a square is half an octagon. Math ain't art. That's not art. That's just math, Jimmy O. I mean, listen, Griffin can figure out that a square is half an octagon. Math ain't art, buddy. Why should I pay someone to do math for me? I'm clearly even pretty good at it.
