Starting point is 00:00:00 I could see like a Bobcat being like a lanky guy that knows jiu-jitsu. Like you might be surprised once you get into the fight. Like it might be like, holy shit, this is a problem that I did not anticipate. Where a cougar is more direct in their threat, I would say. Yeah, distinct, distinct, yeah, sure why not bobcat too small right yeah right it's not intimidating like that's a middle school that's a middle school uh fucking mascot right it fits the size of the of a seventh grader yeah it is wow uh the bobcat male bobcat 14 to 40 pounds female bobcat 8.8 to 34 that's nothing that's nothing henry was bigger than that that's what i'm saying like you could i could pick up
Starting point is 00:00:55 and throw a bobcat like a football yeah you could eat a bobcat yeah eating a cougar no the branding of the bobcat really was hurt by bobcat Goldwaif as well. Like I associate. There's nothing intimidating about that man. And that's the number one Bobcat association I have. Yeah. He should change his name to Robert Cat. You should. It could be Robert Cat Goldwaif.
Starting point is 00:01:16 But guys, we're back after a long break. Last time we talked about what is weather and there's money in the Leaf game was the title. We talked about Flint is weather and there's money in the leaf game was the title uh we talked about uh flintstoning it we talked about uh we saw stewart the bumbling customer footage um jeff had waking thoughts there's a hot dog issue of the face museum uh icy hot while needing to pee deodorant uh cookbooks, accidental murder in a 22. But that was all the previous episode. This is 155. I got some more stuff, too.
Starting point is 00:01:51 I got some stuff to clean up. Can I just say before this episode starts, if Andrew hasn't measured his back, I'm going to be livid. Oh, don't you worry. Don't you worry. Should we start the episode? Yeah, go ahead. ahead okay hold on a second hello and welcome to another episode of the face podcast my name is t-bone ramsey and with me as always andrew pantin and gavin free episode 155 little quick uh let's check in on everybody
Starting point is 00:02:21 health-wise uh gavin how you doing? Pretty good. Good. Good to know. Nick, how you doing? All good. All right. That's good to know. Eric, I'm a little concerned about you. How are you feeling? So far, Jeff.
Starting point is 00:02:33 So good. Okay. That's quite a relief. Andrew, how are you doing? I have COVID, but I'm good. How about you, Jeff? Somebody asked me how I'm doing? I have COVID, but I'm good
Starting point is 00:02:45 wait and this is the reason that Jeff asked me how I was doing because I am currently quarantining because I was around Jeff after he tested positive you both have COVID again Gavin why don't you have COVID
Starting point is 00:03:01 Andrew and I clearly went out and got COVID Andrew didn't go to Italy either are you sure why don't you have COVID? Andrew and I clearly went out and got COVID. Andrew didn't go to Italy either. Are you sure? Good Lord. You're getting cucumber photos in Italy like in a week from now. Oh, that sucks. Yeah, it does.
Starting point is 00:03:16 It does. That was really mean of you, Jeff, to open with Noah and Gavin. How are you? Just Noah, the great. Just great, great Jeff. Tell us more about how good you feel. If that was a different order,
Starting point is 00:03:27 I would have been less excited about how good I felt to try and make you guys feel better. No, it's so... Andrew and I found out... I got COVID Monday, or I got... Well, who knows when I got it. I was diagnosed with COVID Monday, and then he tested positive Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:03:42 So we're going through it together. We're like... We're buddies though. I texted Jeff last night and I just wrote, remember when we made a podcast together? Because it's been so long. This feels like the longest, it probably isn't. This feels
Starting point is 00:03:56 like the longest gap ever though for some reason. It feels so long. Oh, by the way, real fast, Eric, I have a producer, a production related question I'd like to ask you. Sure. Okay. I would like to formally request a special one time use regulation episode length variance to be used specifically for the end of episode extension purposes for today and today only because we haven't been together in so long and we're only filming one episode.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Maybe you'd let us go a few minutes over so we could catch up. Um, I'm checking my notes, uh, looking at schedules. Hang on. Okay. Uh,
Starting point is 00:04:31 Jeff, your request is granted. Oh, thank you very much. Just like an extra 10 minutes. That'd be nice. Give us some breathing room today since it's so hard for Andrew and I. We both could use,
Starting point is 00:04:40 yeah, some breathing room I think would be good. Any breathing, additional breathing space would be great. Gavin, before we recorded this recorded this gavin you had a you had a thing you said what did you say what you had a demand you had a singular demand that you'd measured your back so last night i'm isolating uh currently and i was reminded that i still had not measured my back so i got i got those fresh measurements for you today. And we found out that I had a 21 to 22 inch back.
Starting point is 00:05:10 Yep. Eric had a load of bollocks, a load of shit. And I think Jeff had a similar length back to me. I was 22 inches, yeah. Yeah. I think you guys just have short backs. What was your number, Eric? You're 25, right?
Starting point is 00:05:24 Was the report? That's correct. Okay. 25. So before I give my number for my back measurement, I should tell the story of there was a time in the past when I measured my hand to see how big my hand was, and I measured it as 11 inches,
Starting point is 00:05:41 and I lived my life for quite a while thinking I had 11 inch hands and then i read randomly that shacks hands were like 10 and a half inch long like i realized there was a miscalculation when my hands would have been bigger than shacks and i consider my hand smaller than the average hand how did you get 11 inches i don't know i have no i didn't use like a measuring tape or anything it was like a toy i had that had notches on it and i measured it against that and i just thought like oh you had 11 notch long hand that's yeah yeah an 11 notch long hand so going into these measurements,
Starting point is 00:06:27 that's an important thing to take away. Do we have any guesses how long my back is? Oh, no. Well, I mean, you pride yourself on the length of your torso and back, so it's going to have to be longer than mine and Jeff's. So I'm going to say 23 inches. 23. Eric is saying 31.
Starting point is 00:06:43 Nick guessed 27. Jeff, do you have a guess? We're guessing in inches, not toy notches. Inches. Yeah, inches. Proper inches. I used a measuring tape. I did this very professionally. And you did to that nobule on the top of the spine to like... I did the nobule on the top of the spine
Starting point is 00:06:59 to like, yeah, kind of the crutch, the crux. The crux of the back. Crutch? I mean, I think whatever the answer is it's gonna be bullshit but i'm gonna say 27 yeah i took this very seriously i did it multiple times to make sure i have by my measurements a 26 inch back oh 26 inches that seems like bullshit that you think that's bullshit i'm completely nonsense why what what makes you say that you'll say you've got four inches more back than me yes i am saying that aren't we the same height uh we've talked about this before i'm all back i'm a lot of back how tall are you i'm five foot ten which you're telling me you're two you're two inches
Starting point is 00:07:46 shorter than me and you have a four inch bigger back yes i am and let me let me i did some numbers because i was curious five foot ten means i'm i'm around 70 inches tall i'm 37 percent back i got a 37 percent back and then that made me think, well, what are my other dimensions? Where am I? So I went from like the rest of my neck to the top of my head and I'm like, I'm 18% neck to top of head.
Starting point is 00:08:16 That's the other side. I'm like 12 inches. Your head is half your back? I guess, yeah. Well, no, it's a little less. Wait, what? I got 12 inches from the neck to the top of the head. Okay?
Starting point is 00:08:33 How are you 37% back and 18% head? Well, I'm gonna lay out the rest of my figures. Okay. I got all these written down. Right. Let's keep track of this. I'm 18% for 100%. So obviously a person is 100% of whatever. I'm 18% neck to top of head,
Starting point is 00:08:50 37% back, 17% butt length, 28% legs. That adds up to 100%. So you're saying you got 9% more back than legs i do yeah that's a big nine percent though that's a lot it's a lot in that nine percent and if you take all of those measurements because obviously you've figured out the percentage from the measurements in inches have you added together all of those inches to make up the 70 whatever 100 yeah no i took this
Starting point is 00:09:21 very seriously okay i made sure i made the math work i'm gonna be honest i had some issues with the math initially i was a 49 man for a while and i couldn't figure out what was going wrong percentages can be difficult i eventually got the 89 but i got help we we figured it out we got there you're panicking because you can't find your other 11 well no it's listen i gotta yeah got it. Yeah, it was tough. I was like, why am I a 49% man? What has happened? What are your legs again? 29, what is it?
Starting point is 00:09:50 My legs, I'm at 28% legs. How's that possible? I'm just 28%. You're less than 30% leg? I'm less than 30% leg based on my calculations. A, you're an idiot. like based on my calculations you're uh a you're an idiot and b do you think do you think you could eat 24 inches of pancakes that seems like a lot and right now no i don't think i could i don't think i have that in me so the answer to this very long question is now i i expected i expected some
Starting point is 00:10:21 some kickback on this by you guys i thought thought you'd think that my measurements weren't accurate. And with the Shaq hands thing, I think that's fair. I think having some doubts is a reasonable concern. So I reached out to the people that do the animation show that we make. And I wrote down my percentages. And I said, without context, could you have somebody draw someone with what these percentages what you interpret they would look like so we have i'm gonna post a photo in chat right now this is what it looks like based off of that and i gotta say i think i look pretty good
Starting point is 00:10:56 i think that's me okay to be honest that is you that's pretty close to me i'm so happy they're so talented all the people that do the art for a show as someone who's uh stood next to you a lot that is you except why in the name of christ wait is that a thumb why do you how many fingers do you have on that hand what's going on i want two three four now yeah i think that's four i think the fingers are right okay that's not supposed to be me it's just i said that's you give these but it is me that's how is it not supposed i don't understand how that's not supposed to be you because that's you because i said i said i didn't say draw me i said these are these figures that i measured have somebody draw this without context just what they what it would look like with these things and it's me so it is me but it isn't me is
Starting point is 00:11:51 what i'm saying they didn't try to make me they just took the parts and it is me because my measurements are correct you know what i'm gonna based on this drawing alone i'm gonna accept your measurements until we can be until we're in person and can have somebody measure us all next to each other. I can't argue with that image of you. That's a great image, though. They sent it to me as proportions guy, and I love that.
Starting point is 00:12:15 That's proportions guy. So I feel really good about it. Would you feel offended if the next time I see you in real life, I measure the shit out of you? No, absolutely not. Okay, because I just need, obviously I need the shit out of you. No, absolutely not. Okay, because I just need the real figures.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Yeah, no, absolutely. And as somebody, I believe I'm top of Back Mountain right now, so that's a crown that I respect. Yeah, was it 26 you said? Yeah, 26. I can send you my numbers. You can cross-reference with your numbers at a future time. But that's just a back update. I know I
Starting point is 00:12:43 let that slip in the past and wanted to make sure i was on top of it got my totals done that's excellent excellent excellent closure i think i totally agree yeah thank you for the visual aids i uh another thing in the past that we talked about that i feel like we should probably address kevin do you have a nickname that was homework we're supposed to come up with nicknames, I believe. Oh, nicknames like T-Bone that we wanted? Yeah, like, because Jeff had T-Bone, and I think he wanted us to come up with nicknames.
Starting point is 00:13:13 Just like, if you want a nickname, now's the time to give yourself one. I think I got one. I got a great one. I feel really good about mine. Okay, go for it. I was... This is... I didn't come up with a nickname. I feel really good about mine. Okay, go for it. I was... This is...
Starting point is 00:13:26 I didn't come up with a nickname. My partner gave me this nickname. I was in bed. Nick said back man. Back man? 26 inch back man. That'd be a great action figure. Just like all back.
Starting point is 00:13:41 Hit the button. Do stuff. Anyway. I was in bed. I was relaxing uh and they walked into the room and i had my icing on my head as i do having a good relaxing time and uh they said oh no do you have a headache and then i explained no this is just the thing i'm now doing for leisure this is just comfortable and uh they've started calling me frosty because it's like frosting oh so i just my new nickname i'm just i'm frosty now a great nickname frosty pantin
Starting point is 00:14:12 frosty pantin i didn't even associate the last name with the first but i feel really good about frosty it happened like the day after we had that recording and i was like holy shit it's perfect frosty uh gavin uh how are you doing on your nickname search um i couldn't really think of anything and then i just something came into my head uh that i like and it's ram scoop okay okay so is it like one name ram scoop or is it like first ram last scoop like what is uh's the thought no I just be one name ram scoop okay and it's because I remembered I think I had red dwarf
Starting point is 00:14:50 in my head this is the ship from red dwarf and that front is the ram scoop and I just thought that's a good name I like it Jeff you don't think he's kind of like walking into your name territory with like oh because the REM thing yeah that's fine oh shit I didn't even I'm okay with that
Starting point is 00:15:06 really you didn't think of that that's the first thing I thought of oh you know what Jeff if you if you want to take Ram Scoop I'll give it up no no I'm happy with T-Bone I have I got T-Bone and I've only ever seen one episode of Red Dwarf so it would be disingenuous of me okay I'm I think Ram Scoop you know that's the thing you name yourself whatever you want this is when carte blanche here we don't have to wait to be gifted to us. And you end up with some dumbass nickname like they called me Jeffro in sixth grade. That's great.
Starting point is 00:15:37 Yeah, I didn't like it then. That's why I'm T-Bone now. Honestly, Ram Scoop has supporting character energy to it like i could see t-bone and ram scoop working together yeah i i would always be after the end i think no one's ever starting with ram scoop and that's i think that's a place i'm happy to be like frosty t-bone and ram scoop that's exactly what i was gonna say like this would be like frosty would it like bring you into his gang and he'd be like this is t-bone and this is Ram Scoop and I feel like if it was like a TV series and those are the three main characters you would have the first two names memorized by the end of episode like one and two but it'd take you
Starting point is 00:16:14 to episode four to remember Ram Scoop I think I picture us as the supporting cast of Hot Rod just see yeah just sitting around bill haters talking about how we love the party I've got a video if we want to watch oh yeah together yeah I would love to watch video I'll give the back story this is from a youtube channel called geo wizard where he does a lot of stuff like he'll try and walk across the country in a straight line which is really funny and I've talked about it before on podcast just a good channel where he does a lot of stuff like he'll try and walk across the country in a straight line, which is really funny. And I've talked about it before on podcasts. It's a good channel. And he does GeoGuessr as
Starting point is 00:16:50 well. So pretty much every time he does like a straight line mission across the country, I'll also watch some other videos. And this is called TimeGuessr, I guess. It's similar to GeoGuessr, but you just get a picture that's not necessarily a historical picture. It's just you have to use the context clues to figure out where exactly it is on the map and then what year it is so i think that
Starting point is 00:17:08 currently he's he's looking at this sign he's seen monroe so he thinks it's potentially in monroe louisiana and then we'll just watch this clip together we don't actually have anything do we the chances of these things still going is ridiculous and there is a Navy sailor. I didn't notice him. Ah. I don't think they're coming up here, man. So I don't think this is going to be right. But I'm going to go for it.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Let's just go in the middle of there. And now for the year. Well, 45. Wait a minute. Key West. I don't believe it. Is this Key West? Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Good riddance, Monroe. See you later. It's got to be Key West. That makes more sense as well. Navy. It's got to be a Navy place That makes more sense as well. Navy. Is that Sloppy Joe's? Yeah, that's a very strategic place. Dude.
Starting point is 00:18:07 Across the street from Sloppy Joe's. It looks like Sloppy Joe's to me, that outside. Duval Street. Let's look at the shadows here. The shadows, the sun will be definitely in the south here. Oh. And the shadows come from there, so. This guy's like a scientist. I would put us on something like this i'm not even gonna look for any of these okay did you see where he clicked no could you see this i mean it's a
Starting point is 00:18:33 little blown out it's a little blown out but yeah what he clicked in the intersection right next to sloppy joe's he clicked exactly where the cameras are pointing on the live stream what are the freaking chances of that it turns out um it's the right street the picture is just slightly further down but i i spat my drink out when i saw where he clicked and it was literally where we watch it was like the day it was like a week after we did that Sloppy Joe's bingo. He was about half a kilometer off in where I was actually taken. And he clicked in the intersection. That is fucking insane. And I have one little piece of Sloppy Joe's trivia that I could throw out to add color to this, if you'd like. I was reading on the Sloppy Joe's wiki while I was on vacation
Starting point is 00:19:25 about the origin of the Sloppy Joe and listen to this passage. One theory of the sandwich's origin is that in 1917 in a Havana, Cuba bar, owner Jose Sloppy Joe Abael E. Otero created a simple sandwich filled with meat and stewed tomatoes. It was his interpretation of a
Starting point is 00:19:42 picadillo. His bar was reportedly frequented by Americans and Britons, including Ernest Hemingway, obviously, Graham Green, who's a fantastic writer, if you've never read any of his work, and Errol Flynn. What? His bar was reportedly
Starting point is 00:19:59 frequented by Americans and Britons, including Errol Flynn, Ernest Hemingway, and Graham Green, circa 1937. What is happening? Hemingway then convinced him to move to Key West, Florida or whatever. Dude, Errol fucking Flynn, who only exists in our universe
Starting point is 00:20:16 because you said the name, because you called yourself Errol, went to fucking Sloppy Joe's with Ernest Hemingway. And it's not like he just went there and no one noticed he's like notably someone who went there to the point it was written and recorded yeah and then i watch the youtube channel where someone incorrectly guesses right outside sloppy joes it's everything's happening at the same time it's crazy there's so fucking a lot of great
Starting point is 00:20:40 sloppy joe's stuff recently jeff are you are you aware of their independence day are you familiar with the conch republic yeah i'm familiar with the conch republic i had no idea that was thing so jeff you went on vacation to italy you went on vacation during their independence day week which i thought was i know terrible timing for sloppy joe stuff i've been trying to watch i didn't know anything about it gevin are you aware of the conch republic no they set up i don't remember when this was maybe like the 70s was the 80s i think early 80s yeah okay they randomly the government set up a checkpoint on the one highway out of town like right in the center of their their area essentially so you had to clear the security checkpoint to leave the keys and it was killing tourism and so they're
Starting point is 00:21:25 trying to get it removed and they wouldn't remove it they're ignoring all requests so the mayor of key west uh essentially gathered people and got everybody to agree to defect from the u.s and they called themselves the conch republic and they started war they immediately declared war against the united states and then surrendered. But it was just all like a publicity stunt to try to get media attention on the fact that they wouldn't get rid of this checkpoint that was killing their their town, essentially. And it worked. But now every year they celebrate the like Independence Day of from America of the Conch
Starting point is 00:22:03 Republic and they do like a whole week tourism shit. And it's great. So how long were they technically at war? I think two weeks. Yeah. They seceded from the Union for like two weeks. It was very brief. Quite a long time.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Yeah. And that's why they call themselves the Conquer Republic now. And it's a great marketing tool. And it worked out really well for them. So what do you need to be able to declare war on the country that you're in? Just enough people? I guess, guess yeah i guess if everyone agrees and the people in power you can then remove and attack
Starting point is 00:22:34 interesting there was like some issue i want to say where like there was a rally for it and somebody hit a naval officer with a thing of like dried bread and so like the declaration of war was almost like a panic move to like calm the crowd to then immediately surrender was the idea um at least from my understanding of it this is crazy i had no idea that was the thing there was a parade going on i was like what is happening what are they celebrating how is jeff missing this also i need to send a file i've been recording some clips from Sloppy Joe's. I had one of the greatest arguments I've ever seen. Of 20 minutes.
Starting point is 00:23:10 A 20 minute long... It's the most compelling television I've ever watched. Of Wedding Gone Wrong. Of like... Was it close to Sloppy Clock? It was, yeah. It was... It would have been like 1245 Eastern.
Starting point is 00:23:24 Which I feel like, Jeff, is that kind of like prime 11, 1115 is when slop o'clock starts. So yeah, you're right in there. Okay. Well, it was like prime slop o'clock and honestly it was kind of quiet and it was disappointing. And I was like, oh man, I, this is, I'm surprised that with, uh, the independence festivities and all that stuff, like this isn't a rowdy your time. And then just out of nowhere just hearing somebody say i don't know what you're fucking talking about and then a guy going you
Starting point is 00:23:51 crossed the line there's a line and you crossed it and then it just kept going and she's like you're gonna ruin kyle's wedding and she's like i don't give a fuck i don't care i don't care i don't care you crossed the't care. You crossed the line. The line was crossed. I am going to stay here and I'm going to fight this guy. And they're just hearing like, we are not going to get arrested in Key West.
Starting point is 00:24:13 And it kept building. And then eventually the groom shows up and like tried to come and it just kept escalating. And it was crazy. Yeah, it was fantastic. I need to send to you
Starting point is 00:24:22 footage, Jeff. I can send it to you if you want it, Gavin, as well. It's an all-time argument. At some time or at some point in it, somebody yells, this isn't Game of Thrones. It's great. It's a fantastic fight.
Starting point is 00:24:33 And it's been honestly the high of maybe any entertainment I've watched this year was the Sloppy Joe's livestream. Should we do a live Sloppy Joe's bingo soon? Yeah. I actually have a date that I want to pitch to you guys after this record. I'm not doing it.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Okay. We'll talk about it afterward. Yes, it's good. Yeah, but there's some stuff in the works, Gav, so that we can hopefully do one before too long. Actually, pretty, pretty, yeah, pretty soon. When this comes out, pretty soon. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Ooh. So hopefully everybody's available, because I'm very, very excited about it. Man, I got to say, going to Italy for 11 days was awesome and I had a wonderful vacation. And if the souvenir of my 11 days in Italy was COVID, it was worth it. It was, I got, man,
Starting point is 00:25:19 I got to see a lot of churches. Holy shit. But I tried to keep tabs on Sloppy Joe's, and it was so hard. Fucking NBA was brutal. All the playoff games started at 2 in the morning, and so I'd have to watch from 2 in the morning to 4 in the morning or 4.30 in the morning,
Starting point is 00:25:36 and then the Celtics would shit the bed. And then because it was on a tour I was on that was sometimes on a bus, sometimes on a train, sometimes in a car uh every morning we had to have our bags ready and outside of our room by like 6 15 in the morning and then we were leaving at like seven so i didn't i didn't sleep for like 10 straight days speaking of the celtics how are your uh it's at least shits yeah uh i didn't well i learned we i learned interestingly enough uh that uh i thought i liked italian food turns out i like i like like american italian food
Starting point is 00:26:14 every fucking my shits were fine uh my shits were totally fine unremarkable um the the bidets are weird over there, so I tended not to use them. They're like... What's weird about them? They usually like they're... Yeah, like on a... Like a handle on a fucking cord that you got to maneuver yourself.
Starting point is 00:26:33 I like that my bidet does all the work. I don't want to like start spraying and fucking miss... It just... It was confusing. It was more trouble than it was worth. And I ended up making a bigger mess than... Any mess with a bidet is unacceptable.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Have you used one that's like a separate appliance? The one that you get off and squat over? Yeah, I don't like that one either. Okay. I wasn't crazy about that one either. So it was a pretty... I had to wipe my butthole like a savage. But other than that,
Starting point is 00:27:00 it's like all the food in Italy, it's like... Do you like spaghetti? Then you'll love it with clams. It's like, oh, but I don't want clams. And they're like, tough shit. Cl the food in Italy. It's like, do you like spaghetti? Then you'll love it with clams. It's like, oh, I don't want clams. And they're like, tough shit. Clams are in everything. Do you like ravioli?
Starting point is 00:27:11 Sure. Then you're going to love clam ravioli. How do you feel about clam lasagna? Do you like tiramisu? You're going to love clam tiramisu. God damn with the clams, man. They got a lot of coastline. They really do.
Starting point is 00:27:26 The food was pretty good. You realize that you don't understand what al dente in America is. Al dente is a whole different level. But it was good. The food was mostly good. Did you feel like you had different morning thoughts in a different country? My morning thoughts were, I kind of gave up on them because I was so stressed
Starting point is 00:27:46 because I was like, I was like waking up two or three times. You know, it's like, I didn't go to bed till like 4.30 after the Celtics lose or whatever. And then I'm asleep for like 45 minutes and then I got to get up and figure out what toiletries
Starting point is 00:27:58 I need to set aside in a backpack so I can get my suitcases packed to put them outside the door and then go back to sleep for 30 minutes. It's just like, it was unproductive. So I didn get my suitcases packed to put them outside the door and then go back to sleep for 30 minutes. It's just like it was unproductive. So I didn't really I have morning thoughts from before and after. But I did. I do have I have two stories I'd like to share from Italy that I think will kind of encompass my trip.
Starting point is 00:28:17 And I'll say from just for the record, I went to Lake Como. I went to Venice. I went to Florence. I went to Siena and I went to Lake Como. I went to Venice. I went to Florence. I went to Siena. And I went to Rome. And Rome is by far the coolest place I've ever been, probably. And I'd be happy
Starting point is 00:28:34 never to go to Venice again. It's just, too many fucking people, man. It's just gross. Okay, so I had two things that happened in Italy that I thought you guys might appreciate.
Starting point is 00:28:45 One was I had... I developed an enemy on the trip. I didn't realize how much I need an enemy in my life at all times. But when there isn't one, I found... Boy, do I find them. So we were on this trip. It was like 22
Starting point is 00:29:01 people, right? And it was like a trip that Emily's parents planned before the pandemic. And we were on this trip. It was like 22 people, right? And it was like a trip that Emily's parents planned before the pandemic. And we were supposed to go in 2020. And so it's been delayed and delayed and delayed. And so everybody that had initially got tickets all just got even older. Emily and I and her sister-in-law were the only people under 60 on the trip. So everybody was between 65 and 80.
Starting point is 00:29:29 The kind of people that would be impatient waiting for a proposal. Yeah, kind of. I spent the last 11 days moving at the speed of octogenarian, which was a special kind of challenge in general but all lovely people love them to death but so it's a really intimate trip right we comprised
Starting point is 00:29:53 five of 22 people so there are only 17 other people on the trip with us right and so you get to know each other very quickly and they have a lot of like the first night you have you get together in a little in a hotel conference room kind of, and you have to introduce yourselves and tell them about your life and shit. You would hate it. I also, God, that's awful.
Starting point is 00:30:11 But I, you know, I just, I made a dumb joke about like about marrying up or something. And I, you know, I was just trying to lighten the mood. And, uh,
Starting point is 00:30:18 but anyway, I was affable and you get to know everybody's face instantly. Cause there's only like 17 other people that you don't know there. So you learn them immediately uh and then you like then we went on a fucking tour together we went on a boat all across like como went to all these fucking restaurants together we have to like mix and match so we're sitting at each other's tables and you're like it's like immersion you have to you're immersed in these other people's lives and you get to know them very quickly. So I'm on day four of this trip, day four, we're going from Venice down to Florence and we stop at a winery in Tuscany somewhere.
Starting point is 00:30:58 That's also like a, like a fancy fucking hotel. Like we pulled into the driveway and there's, there's two Aston Martins and a Ferrari parked in the, in the driveway and there's uh there's two aston martins and a ferrari parked in the in the driveway and you're like holy shit this is this place fancy and then we eat outside and have this like lunch with wine that i can't drink and so they're just like confused and offended that i don't want their wine from their winery and then i feel like an asshole and i'm trying to be like no i'm just i i'll destroy the place if I drink please don't you know and anyway I get up and I go to the bathroom and me and all
Starting point is 00:31:30 the old ladies get up and go to the bathroom because we all have to pee constantly and I'm standing in line with this group of ladies that I have been on tour I just I've been on a bus with for four hours just like having to play bingo together we played Italy bingo we just played that day all together
Starting point is 00:31:46 uh like fucking like fucking forced to play bingo about italy and uh oh by the way sloppy james bingo way better and uh and i'm standing in line with this lady and there's one of the ladies on the trip and she turns back she looks at me and she goes so are you staying at the winery and i go why would i do that and she goes no i mean because the winery? And I go, why would I do that? And she goes, no, I mean, because the winery was like a hotel as well. And there was like a pool with like fancy fucking Italian people hanging out by the pool and stuff. And she goes, no, I mean, are you a resident of this hotel? Are you staying here? And I go, what are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:32:20 And she goes, are you staying at this hotel? And I go, lady, I've been on a bus with you for four days. And she goes are you staying at this hotel and i go lady i've been on a bus with you for four days and she goes what and i go we're on the tour together we've been we sat by each other and she just looked at me with just like disdain in her eyes and she goes you must be one of the family then and just walked away as if like the fed like we're like we and i saw i was like oh it is fucking on between you and me, lady. So she was my fucking enemy for the next eight days. And I hated her every second.
Starting point is 00:32:50 And I was still nice to her and I was still polite to her, but I was a little less nice and a little less sincere every time I said something to her. Wow. Were you offended that she didn't know though? I'm the only person under 80 on the fucking bus. I got covered in tattoos and I'm loud as dicks. How could she have not noticed me? We were together for four days. I sat next to her on a speedboat.
Starting point is 00:33:14 I helped her get off the speedboat. I held her dumb hand. Wow. You helped her. That's a bond. Anytime you're riding with someone in a speedboat that is that is a genuine bond you have formed yeah i can't believe that she that's disrespectful i totally agree dude and so uh so from that point on i realized uh the trip got instantly better because i realized i hated her
Starting point is 00:33:35 and then there's just something clicked and it was like oh this i i need this tension in my life i gotta have something to be mad about you know or something that some some focus i mean that's clearly a thing though like do they all know about the family? Is it like all of them versus yours? Is it just her? I wondered that as well. Well, she was on a trip with her cousins and they were lovely and I had many nice conversations with them.
Starting point is 00:33:56 So if there were, I don't think so. I don't know. I think it was just her dumb ass, but not a fan of her. Not a fan. Where was she from? I don't want to say. Oh. US. She was the Northeast. She was from the Northeast. Not a fan of her. Where was she from? I don't want to say. She was in the U.S. She was the Northeast. She was from the Northeast.

Starting point is 00:34:55 We were at Lake Como. We got there a day early. And so we stayed at this really nice hotel that had a fancy spa that they had just reopened. And it had all of these different kind of like spa treatments you could try. Like there was this like room you walk in and you walk through ice cold water. That's like up to your ankles or like a little above your ankles.
Starting point is 00:35:15 And then you go into like hot water and then ice cold water and then hot water. And you like follow this Zen path and shit. And then there's like, there's a room full of ice that you just go in and freeze in for five minutes. Then you go get into a hot room and there's a room where you like dump buckets of hot or cold water on your head just all kinds of weird shit right and so emily and i are just
Starting point is 00:35:31 going through and doing it all and then after we go through all the gimmicks we're like do you want to just hang out in the spa or in the sauna and we're like yeah let's just get in a nice hot sauna and just fucking sweat out all the gross us and just fucking just relax. And so we get in the sauna and it's not super hot yet. And I'm like, okay. So I like click the on button to like flip it on and the lights come on. And I'm like,
Starting point is 00:35:56 all right, it's going to start heating up now. And so we like lay down and get comfy and we're just laying there and it's okay. But it's like, it's like the least impressive sauna i've ever been in and i'm just thinking about like why they would have such a mediocre sauna in such a nice hotel with all this other song with all this other gimmicky shit right and as
Starting point is 00:36:17 we're laying there we're just kind of like talking we both realize that we can hear this like somewhere off in the distance this alarm going off and it's like like uh somebody's day is ruined and it just keeps going on from like man i hope i hope this isn't like the end of the world or something like this is how we felt like 28 days later this is how we find out you know and it just keeps going forever and so we're kind of joking about it because it's been going on for like five minutes and then the front door swings open and some dude runs in he goes is everybody okay are you okay and we're like yeah man what's up and he's like oh you hit the alarm button we and he would have he turned off the alarm button and then the sauna turned on
Starting point is 00:36:56 we got in and i just immediately pulled the alarm and we were sitting in a fucking in a cold ass sauna not working because it was shut down We got in and I just immediately pulled the alarm. And we were sitting in a fucking, in a cold ass sauna not working because it was shut down while there was an alarm blaring around the entire. That's incredible. And we couldn't hear it because we were in the sauna. So you didn't notice everything turn off
Starting point is 00:37:22 the second you pressed that? Yeah, the second he pressed that, it got started it got Damn, and hot we're like oh this feels more right I Was it so where was the button and really it was it in the sauna was it outside What is knows in the sauna just on the wall really at that? I feel like once again sort on them. I feel like there should be more of a sign How is it not marked with a huge sign?
Starting point is 00:37:45 Yeah. How does that not constantly happen? I don't know. I don't speak Italian. Well, I mean, the color scheme usually, like an exclamation mark or something. I didn't notice it. I just felt like a thing to flip.
Starting point is 00:37:58 I was like, yeah, this must be it. I wonder how often that happens. Like, does that guy just have to sprint across the hotel like every three days? I mean, by his reaction, it sounds like it often that happens. Does that guy just have to sprint across the hotel every three days? By his reaction, it sounds like it hardly ever happens. Otherwise, he would have just strolled in casually. He looked stressed out. And then immediately, he hated me.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Which I get. He's been talking to the other lady, probably. Oh, my God. Anyway, so that's my Italy trip my italy trip other than oh i love it then let me tell you something i saw all the greatest works of art and all anything you can think of i saw and i got to see like private tours of it i can see a private tour of the sistine chapel it was amazing i got to see all this stuff and all i've discovered is man are there a lot of pictures a lot of paintings of mary and the baby jesus why didn't they paint anything else
Starting point is 00:38:47 like baby's first steps like surely it was a big deal when jesus learned to walk right or like first time he had solid food or like jesus playing ball in the yard or like anything else there are entire cities devoted to pictures of the virgin mary and the baby jesus at the manger or like the day after when they have their first like mommy son photo but like nothing else I just like it's insane yeah like why aren't more presidential portraits of them like having lunch yeah it's just why that moment like so much else happened in that dude's life they could have drawn pictures of and we're talking like old like art yeah things? Yeah, dude.
Starting point is 00:39:26 Every museum you go to and you're like, the Virgin Mary was a baby Jesus and over here is a baby Jesus with the Virgin Mary. I thought you said you didn't speak Italian. Yeah, it's just like back to back to back. Well, you know, I lived there, man,
Starting point is 00:39:42 for ten days. I lived there! I've been visiting. You live, you are a resident. I'm practically Italian now. Do you think they realized what they were doing or do you think they were all being original? Like these were all made independently and then they had the big art show
Starting point is 00:39:56 and they went, oh no. They all got together. It's like, oh no. You should have told me you were also drawing. Mary, Jesus. I just feel like if like, if like they get all the Harry Potter fans got together and they all only drew the picture off the first book
Starting point is 00:40:12 and they're like there's seven other books so shit you could draw from as yeah I don't know that's funny I think that's a great analogy though because I wasn't really on board I thought I'm like I don't know it's like church commissioned and it's just pictures of baby Jesus but when you said potter all from the first book well you think about it it's like fandom right it's like it was the best story around back at the time it was like
Starting point is 00:40:33 the game of thrones of of the the bc 80s right it was like it was like the shit that was happening that everybody was invested in all the fan fiction was about it. Everybody's writing, you know, that people are all the shipping. Everything is all about it. And it just like continued for so, so long. Like the staying power is phenomenal. For thousands of years, they were still drawn. They're still drawn pictures and and doing that shit. But it's just all of that same fucking scene.
Starting point is 00:41:03 It's like so much else happened. Jesus was in his 30s. Like, why did Jesus eat lunch when he's 15 at school? Like, where's that picture? Like, why didn't somebody paint that?
Starting point is 00:41:15 Like, Jesus hanging out with his friends in the backyard. Like, having a horse race, having a donkey race with his buddy, Craig, or like anything, you know?
Starting point is 00:41:24 Sure. I'm just thinking of a sub-genre of like, fan fiction around Jesus, having a horse race having a donkey race with his buddy craig or like anything you know sure i'm just thinking of a sub-genre of like fan fiction around jesus and like other i'd never consider that like non-ironic like jesus fanfic and that's what i would consider the bible to be it was written like 300 years after he died i just i mean more in the context of like this is twilight but jesus is there like the idea of like wanting to implement X-Men, but Jesus. Technically, Andrew, I think Jesus is in all of those stories. He's in all of us. I see.
Starting point is 00:41:52 That's a great point. Yeah. Anyway, that was my big takeaway. I got to see stuff that was like, dude, Rome was fucking awesome. You get to go see stuff that you're like, oh, the Colosseum? Yeah, that's 3,000 years older than Jesus. And you're like, holy shit oh the coliseum's yeah that's 3 000 years older than jesus and you're like holy shit that's fucking old and it's still there and you can still walk around it and uh and you just think about like how much shit must have happened how many interesting things must have happened and then you go to all the museums and they tell you about four different
Starting point is 00:42:19 you know four different dudes or events and you're just like man and even then you just get like the small snapshot yeah when you had your rivalry with that woman did you do anything small but petty that gave you joy did you have like a small moment yeah well fuck you so like anytime i would smile at her or wave or like open the door for her or anything i just would on the inside i'd be a little less sincere about it like I don't think she picked up on it, and that's such a subtle, like, it was for me internally. I'm not going to be rude to an older
Starting point is 00:42:53 lady externally, of course, but it was on the inside. I was just like, I mean it like 60%. I like the idea of you doing something in real life, like a little bit of a smile, like raised eyebrows. But in your head, it's just like a furrowed brow and slightly closed mouth.
Starting point is 00:43:11 Exactly. I'm like, on the inside, I'm like, I hope you don't have a nice day. Did you guys see this shit? I did. The Corridor crew did the Jason Bourne vanishing trick. I think that was like a week after our episode came out oh that's just it's just more of
Starting point is 00:43:28 our simulation breaking down and everything's everything's just a coincidence yeah I'm sure I mean I guarantee it's a coincidence because I doubt they heard it and then put a video together that no no I read some I read some comments that people Gavin was on some of their videos one time and clearly
Starting point is 00:43:44 Gavin set this up. So, Gavin, you're here. You can come clean. You can let everyone know that you did this. I mean, I'm friends with Ren. I like Ren. Apparently, his wife listens to F*** Face, which is nice.
Starting point is 00:43:56 See, there you go. So, just admit it. So, simply admit it, Gavin. Nope, nothing to do with me at all. I actually, I heard rumors that Gavin was inside the van that the guy was jumping into. Wow. True or false? Wow.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Definitely false. Well, I haven't watched the video yet. How is it? I haven't watched it yet either. I just saw the thumbnail. It's just going to be them doing a way better job of it than we're going to do. Yeah. Definitely.
Starting point is 00:44:24 I'm denying it. That's awesome. I like this uh i don't know them personally uh but i like their content so and we've always like run in similar circles yeah ren is like one of my favorite people online just like totally like one of the most enthusiastic people you'll ever meet that's awesome jeff i have a sports move i want to remind you. Since you're a sports influencer, I had an idea. I had a great, I think, petty idea that I'm very proud of. I didn't initiate on. But the NHL draft lottery happened a few days ago. And there was a really good player is expected to go in this upcoming draft.
Starting point is 00:44:59 And the Chicago Blackhawks won. And I fucking hate the Blackhawks. They're a terrible, awful organization. Can't stand them. Just the worst in so many ways. Jeez. And I was reading a news story like an hour after it happened that they had sold like two point five million dollars in season tickets like an hour after they had won the lottery
Starting point is 00:45:19 to get this player. I think a great move and I hadn't ever thought about this before. I don't know if it's possible. I didn't look into logistics of it fully. I did try, but the site was down. I think a great move would be to buy season tickets for teams you hate and then sell them back to the fans
Starting point is 00:45:35 at an above average price if the demand allows it. Like, that's a thing I'm going to be actively looking to do. Like scalping for shitty teams? Sort of, yeah, but like buying, but I never considered buying season tickets. Yeah, but that's not scalping, is it? No, because I'm buying the tickets from the team, but then just never going to the games.
Starting point is 00:45:55 I'm only selling them. And so therefore, fans of that team would then have to pay me to see their team. And I feel like in a weird way that I'm getting like a one-up on the fans of that team. You added a moral quandary to just scalping. Like, you've just, you've somehow put sports anger into like the secondary market. Yeah. I don't, I'm not really sure what it accomplishes this is what
Starting point is 00:46:27 it accomplishes i i guess would you sell the tickets for more or less than what oh more okay so you're just more than what i paid for oh no but no hear me out hear me out i lost my team lost the draft lottery i'm really mad about it but now fans of the blackhawks have to pay a tax to me a guy that hates their organization i'm profiting off of their fandom and that makes me feel okay about losing the draft now now that we now that you put it out put it like that i i'm pretty sure it is scalping uh how did he put it the first time? What if you... Well, because I was thinking, like, before the pandemic, I was seriously considering buying a
Starting point is 00:47:10 season ticket block to the Celtics, figuring I could travel to seven or eight games, and then anyone that I couldn't make, I'd just sell on, like... You're allowed to do that? Yeah, why wouldn't I be? Oh, yeah. I do that. I have season tickets to Austin FC, and I sell the tickets that i have season tickets to austin fc and i sell the
Starting point is 00:47:25 tickets that i can't go to the games too yeah but i would be buying them with the intention of going to most or all of them and then if circumstances change i have the you know the safety valve of being able to sell them hopefully for an increased rate uh it seems like it'd be a funnier gotcha if you could figure out a way to sell those tickets but only tell them to people that hate the blackhawks who are then gonna that's yeah gonna be you know that's like extroverted to the away team nuisances yeah like like maybe some at a discount to the away team that is the extension of that if you were a james bond like billionaire villain the move would definitely be to buy as many season tickets as
Starting point is 00:48:05 you could and then either just not go or send opposing fans to every home game yeah the company still makes all the money though yeah but like it's about you it's about you lying to yourself to make you feel better about your sports situation interesting none of it is logical like that's the first thing you gotta get rid of when assessing yeah i think that works way better on a on a grander scale like if you buy a whole block is because it wouldn't even to be clear like i couldn't if they're selling above what i bought them for that's because of demand for market demand yeah yeah it's not me i'm not i'm not purposely bumping. Cause if I did,
Starting point is 00:48:45 then people just wouldn't buy them. But if market demand caters, which it generally does when there's excitement around like a team that has potential, I just think it's a great penny move. Is there a team that you would do this with Gavin? Do you have like a sports hate for someone? Oh,
Starting point is 00:49:01 Osno. Yeah. Okay. Well, there you go. No hesitation. Well, I mean, every team's got a rival. Yep.
Starting point is 00:49:10 Imagine if you were more successful in life than you currently are. Yeah. And you were able to, there's like the big Premier League Cup. It's between Arsenal and Tottenham. And you were able to, and it's a 100,000 person stadium and you were able to buy 50,000 Arsenal fan seats
Starting point is 00:49:26 and then just leave it empty and it's just 50,000 Tottenham fans and then just fucking crickets. And then when Arsenal inevitably beat Spurs, it's just complete silence for every goal. Boing. Because it's actually like, I've been to games where the away turnout was so low that you can barely hear anyone over there and it's not like everyone boos when a goal is scored it's just
Starting point is 00:49:52 quiet like people just mainly get quiet and it's a really funny sight to like hear the ball hit the net in a big stadium and just people, you can hear the players going, yeah! That'd be great if Arsenal would play. See, now you're on board. You're loving this fantasy. I'm back on board. Could I talk to you about
Starting point is 00:50:19 the problem I'm having at the moment? Please. And I've talked in the Slack about this, but, you know, as you know, I'm hounded by slightly weird house problems a lot at the moment. Please. And I've talked in the slack about this, but as you know, I'm hounded by slightly weird house problems a lot of the time. I've had my carpet mushrooms and my sink mushrooms,
Starting point is 00:50:34 constant battle. And now I've got my slime. Slime? My slime face, the slime era. What is this? Oh my God. What is this shit? Where is this coming from?
Starting point is 00:50:47 That is, you got the last of a season two starting in your house, is what you have. Yeah, I don't want to touch it. That is good. You shouldn't. Is it slimy? It looks like mold or... Oh, like fungus. Yeah, it's like translucent goo.
Starting point is 00:51:04 You're gonna end up like Stephen King in Creepshow if you touch that. Do not touch that. Yeah, don't touch the meteor shit. Yeah, I don't know what to do about this. This is probably one for the audience to help out with. What am I doing with this slime? Have you tried power washing it?
Starting point is 00:51:22 I would try power washing it. That'd be my first phase, I think. Well, yeah, I could wash it off, but isn't it more interesting to see how big the slime gets? Well, it is. I'm just, if you want to. I thought we were looking for solutions. I didn't realize that's what we were doing with this.
Starting point is 00:51:37 Okay, I'm sorry. I was looking up solutions, what it could possibly be, things to make it go away. I didn't realize that we were in a well let's see what this thing is yeah and see how far it can go situation when jeff was in his crotch rot phase he didn't say i wonder how far this will go let's just wait and see well i don't have slime growing on my balls i mean it's not like i don't think it's that urgent it's gone on i mean but you don't know what it is You don't know how urgent it is
Starting point is 00:52:06 To me this is how like the original Super Mario Bros movie This is how like the Koopa world started What do you mean? It's a slimy place isn't it? Everything's like covered in goo in there Dennis Hopper's like living in slime world So you think like if they do a zoom out It would just be the like
Starting point is 00:52:25 in men in black where they keep zooming out or whatever this is a tiny city i'm saying that this is the beginning this is where i started have you checked on it recently is this a current photo oh this is about two weeks ago i haven't looked at it for a while what that's oh my god go look at it go run out and look at it right now yeah do you have any keeping tabs on this I'll go right now okay yeah go are you gonna take a picture
Starting point is 00:52:49 yeah take a picture okay I don't I don't understand Nick says it may already be too late yeah I mean the reality is in another three weeks
Starting point is 00:53:00 it's gonna be too hot in Texas for anything to survive yeah and the fucking sun will kill it but i was really like looking up i'm like oh i wonder what this could be i'm searching like outdoor slime fungus growing on house i'm like doing searches what are the best ways out and gavin's like no i want to see what happens let's see what happens yeah it's fucking gross i got a problem here doc let's see what happened you want to Nah, let's just let's play it out.
Starting point is 00:53:26 Let's see what's going on. If that was growing on my house, I would be taking care of it already. Yes, there's I wouldn't not be taking care of it. Wow. I mean, if it starts heating up, you should cut that section of his wall off to preserve it inside. We got to see where this goes. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:41 Got to remove the wall. Of course. Clearly. Obviously. How are you guys feeling by the way tired but like yeah happy i guess yeah what oh my god i feel uh is that bigger i can't tell oh yeah hold on i'd say it is about the same i think it looks a lot darker i think it's more established. It looks more evil at the bottom. Yeah, the bottom's a lot more evil.
Starting point is 00:54:10 Yeah, 100%. Yeah, you can see the darkness spreading. This is how Stranger... This is season one of Stranger Things. Oh, it's like to the upside down? Yeah. It's definitely getting... It looks like it's eating away
Starting point is 00:54:22 at the bottom of your wall, maybe. It does look like it's eating away at the bottom of your wall maybe it does look like it's eating oh yeah i should move it's definitely so excited for the comments on this where people are going to be like you need to sell your house i mean i've seen this before and it's killer mold and you need to you need to burn it down and that mold has priors yeah you need to get out of there none of it is that important or that exciting it's just some mold on a home it's just like this is two weeks before the house and poltergeist sucked itself up into another dimension all right well i'll keep an eye on it yeah well you're going there's concern there's concern the heat when it heats up over the next
Starting point is 00:55:03 few weeks will just naturally kill this and if you want to see where it goes what what links are you willing to go to protect this? I could bag it. Yeah, no Yeah, you're gonna bag it or like tape tape pick a plastic around it Yeah, the toothbrush gagging guy with the like the cold is gonna bag the slime wall, and that'll be okay I that sounds so gross huh well you were unfazed by that and i can't believe that you were just like i'll bag it you did a really good job of matching photos did you attempt that or is that just naturally the photo you took i could just sort of remembered taking it there just took it again
Starting point is 00:55:40 that's really good. Thanks. It's a problem. I have new vocabulary I found out, by the way. Yeah? Yeah, like if ever we're, like Dan was here recently, we're deciding what to eat every day and what to have for lunch and stuff. And if he suggested something, I'd be like, yeah, that's like a seventh round pick.
Starting point is 00:56:03 And I just like the way it sounds. And it's Andrew's go-to but do you understand what that means? no and neither did Dan but just based on the context I gave him you were giving
Starting point is 00:56:22 you were explaining it to dan the only thing i was saying was it sounds like a seventh round pick and then what does he infer from that do you think i think just from my tone i could have said anything and he would have known i wasn't fussed about having uh jersey bikes again or whatever um by the time this is out all of our stuff will have been out and everything or whatever but at the time this is out all of our stuff will have been out and everything or whatever but at the time of this recording the rock not rock draft has come out a week ago or just before the condor man release um thoughts on how the rock not rock draft with a little bit of time sort of between you and the and the fan reaction any thoughts on rock not rock draft
Starting point is 00:57:01 i saw a lot of comment leavers who are pretty happy with crack as my best pick. Maybe I was onto something. I just, I think, I said it to Eric at the time and I think it's still true. I think it's probably the best piece of content
Starting point is 00:57:15 we've ever made. I mean, I feel like the crack rock is the Johnny Manziel of the rock pick. Like, it's flashy on the board. You feel really good about it in the off season. But if you were to put your team to the test, it's going to fall apart.
Starting point is 00:57:29 You don't want crack rock on the roster. Can you say what you just said again, but in English? Well, Johnny Manziel, he's a football player. No, it's just people like it. People like the pick. I think it's important to uh to remember going forward i'm sure i don't think we have any drafts lined up but if we do more which i assume we will it's a good data point oh wow there's a poll done there yeah there were a couple polls now here's the thing here's the thing if there was just one poll supporting gavin in his winning here uh then
Starting point is 00:58:10 you know whatever the poll on the subreddit overwhelmingly gavin the poll on the youtube channel overwhelmingly get there's 934 votes on uh the subreddit poll 5.5k votes on the youtube poll gavin with 52 holy shit gavin you far and away are i mean here's the thing it doesn't matter what they voted for it's truly doesn't matter. But it doesn't matter what the audience thinks. I think they decide. I feel like we have to respect the final opinion of the audience.
Starting point is 00:58:55 I'm just letting you know I don't think I'm ever going to do that. Well, I know you won't. Nick won the first one, right? We decided that. Gavin definitely won the second one. I think that's one to right? We decided that. Gavin definitely won the second one. I think that's one to Nick, one to me.
Starting point is 00:59:09 And I wonder what Maul will say. I'm so curious about the Maul draft. It's so different. People are going to think that it's like people are going to just be like so ready for another Rock Not Rock and it's just us being so happy about it. Yeah, it's like
Starting point is 00:59:26 if you and all the issues, my favorite part of it is the people who have determined that they have a better way to run the draft, which is totally fine. You may have a better. All I can say to that is you and your friends should do that draft and have the best fucking fun and just enjoy it and have
Starting point is 00:59:42 so much fun doing it because they are a ton of fun. They're just a ton of fun to do. But if you had issues with the way we ran the Rock Not Rock draft, those same, I mean, it's the exact same thing in the Mall draft. So just go in forewarned. Although I got to say, I think the Mall draft is just as good in a different way.
Starting point is 00:59:59 It's so good. It's so good. But man, Gavin, congratulations. You did a great job. These are crazy though. Like, look at it. It's like everyone else is second place almost. It's like, it's so good but man gavin congrat congratulations you did these are crazy though like look at it it's like everyone else's second place almost it's like there's not it's it's weird it's like yeah especially that spotify one yeah it's nick nick and eric have and jeff almost have the exact same amount there's one name you're lacking you missed there which one well you you clearly lost i was trying not to you know i think if people voted uh with
Starting point is 01:00:29 their minds instead of their hearts saying i was a downer on the picks i think i would have a higher percentage of the vote that's what i think i think people need to start thinking logically and not emotionally in these drafts. I gotta agree with Andrew. I think it's also, it's disrespectful that Jeff, he had the second biggest killer on the board for anybody and he's not getting the respect it deserves. Oh, it's fine.
Starting point is 01:01:00 I'm just, I'm just happy. I'm just happy that the content exists. Yeah, we should, um, so we need, we need to, uh,
Starting point is 01:01:07 after this probably arrange the next office day. Cause we've, we're getting to the point where all of our supplemental that we've been sat on for months is going to be out. Yeah. Yeah. We, uh,
Starting point is 01:01:16 I mean, we discussed maybe watching the Dracula movie. Uh, somebody mentioned that we had said we were going to watch day of the dolphin, that movie about how George C. Scott trains a dolphin to kill the president. We got more sloppy Joes we could do.
Starting point is 01:01:29 I don't know what the next draft would be, but I feel like there's going to be a rich tapestry of drafting in our future. I mean, if you pick the next movie, we're almost snake drafting movies to watch, right? Because you had the last pick as well. Oh, yeah. I also don't have to have the next movie pick. We can watch whatever you guys want to.
Starting point is 01:01:49 I just want to watch more movies with you. Same. Jeff, you suggested, did you suggest recently having a clock that... Sloppy clock? Sloppy clock. Yeah, I said we should make a clock that's just empty, but it just says slop a clock at 11.15.
Starting point is 01:02:04 As soon as you said that, I like the the lobby of a big office building with all the different Time zone clocks you can have like a panel of four clocks and on each time zone. It would have the correct indication for Like Tokyo Numbers on it. It just went off o'clock. It just says it's time Yeah, like theon one would be like seven in the morning or something that's a great idea oh that's a great yeah like highlight what if every clock was colored differently to reflect when slop o'clock was for that clock yeah yeah i love it that's great oh man for that clock.
Starting point is 01:02:41 Yeah. Yeah. I love it. That's great. Oh, man. Andrew, are you taking Paxlovid? No. What? Paxlovid?
Starting point is 01:02:50 Paxlovid? It's like a COVID treatment. The pills you take. I'm on Gatorade. They say... They say... You might want to look into it. They say...
Starting point is 01:03:00 I called my doctor and they gave it to me for free. So, you take it for like five days, like in the morning and at night. But they say one side effect of it is that it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. And I just don't know anybody else that's taken it
Starting point is 01:03:12 to confirm, but I just wanted to see because this is, it is the most understated side effect ever. It is the most intense bad taste and it has been in my mouth. I will not go away. It's like sour and bitter at the same time. And it's everything I taste.
Starting point is 01:03:29 It's like the opposite of like, you know how when people were like losing their sense of smell and taste when they had COVID? It's like now my sense of smell and taste has been replaced by sour bitter. Like you wish you could lose your sense of smell. Yeah, a little bit. A little bit. It's been so interesting. Have you tried to eat anything overpowering? Like a big garlic or something?
Starting point is 01:03:47 No, maybe I should try to eat a big garlic tonight. Don't look into that. When's the last time you had a big garlic, Jeff? It's been a minute. You know, garlic gives me the worst of the farts. We've determined, Emily and I have, yeah. If you take a... Sometimes we take a clove of garlic and cut it in half like she if you take a sometimes we take a clove
Starting point is 01:04:06 of garlic and cut it in half and then you pour a little olive oil and some salt on it and then you just let it roast in the oven for like uh i don't know half hour 45 minutes and then when you pull it out it's like soft and chewy it's like almost like creamy and there's like garlic juice everywhere and if i eat like that entire clove of garlic, which I could do, I got to sleep outside. It's like, as a matter of fact, when, you know, someday we've talked about how we're going to we're going to record the episode in the in the porta potty together. I was going to try to eat like three cloves of that garlic the night before so that when I come in and we get locked in, it's just it's just a nonstop onslaught.
Starting point is 01:04:48 I just want to make it as torturous as possible. Is it smell and loud, or is it just loud? What are we talking here? What's the combination of, is it forceful and odorous? Smell. Smell. Just smell. Just like the worst, most heinous smelling thing.
Starting point is 01:05:03 Just roasted garlic. Eat a bunch of roasted garlic tonight and see what happens. Man, speaking of smell, Eric, where's our can of disgusting shit? I don't know. I will get it for the next office day. Our can of disgusting shit.
Starting point is 01:05:19 What a description. Because we should get that on the calendar. Yeah, definitely. For sure. Yeah, don't we have to dig a six foot hole to should? Yeah. About a year since the beamhole. Jackhammer. Yeah, we're gonna we were gonna dig a six foot hole with a jackhammer
Starting point is 01:05:34 and then we were gonna put a USB drive with us talking about it at the bottom of it. Yeah. Yeah. We'll get all this on the calendars. I never got one of those Falcon signs. Did you guys get one? No. No, I haven't seen it calendars. I never got one of those Falcon signs. Did you guys get one? No. No, I haven't seen it come through. I'll have to talk with Merch.
Starting point is 01:05:49 It's very weird. Yeah, I think Cayman went before. I didn't even know it. Well, the Falcons took it, so it's fine. Oh, yeah, it sold out immediately. Goddamn. Maybe we should have stopped raising our number. Yeah, maybe we could go back and do like a second run
Starting point is 01:06:01 of Falcon signs and scrumping signs or something because I see people ask for them a lot. That's a good idea. Okay, I'll poke at it, see what's up. I'm not trying to rush you to the end. I'm giving you your your tone. Your over-experience clearance. So, yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:19 Hey, Gav, how did you feel about the coronation? That's a great question. Could I be honest with you? Yeah. Yeah i i just read about it in the news the next day i had no idea it was happening i was fortunate enough to be in london for it uh sitting at it sitting in the uh the admiral's club at uh heathrow yeah apparently all the british people were supposed to do some sort of i I don't know, what was it? They wanted everyone to like... What? Swear fealty to the new king in some way.
Starting point is 01:06:49 Either way, I didn't know it was happening. I missed it. Did you not swear fealty to your king yet? No. Aren't you required to? Yes. It's like registering for select service. I'll get that on the calendar too.
Starting point is 01:07:00 You got to get out of the post office when you're 13, 18, and swear fealty to the king. I'll do it later. I'll get the next one. Yeah? You can start now. You can prepare.
Starting point is 01:07:14 You'll be ready for the next one. Express post. What about the sticks? Have you sent the controller sticks yet? No, I'm waiting for Jeff to give me the thing he wants to send. Oh, man. I need to get that to you. It's just those video games I bought for Andrew a year ago.
Starting point is 01:07:26 I need to get them to him. All right. I'll tell you what, I'm putting a hard cut off on it. Okay. I'll check. I'll check my front porch a week from today. And if it's not,
Starting point is 01:07:34 let me, let me get it. Let me get COVID clear. And then as soon as I'm clear, I'll drive over and drop those games off. All right. Fair play. All right.
Starting point is 01:07:42 This was fun. It was good. I missed you guys. It's good to be back. Oh man. I missed you guys. It's good to be back. Oh, man, I missed you guys. Are we doing this again next week? I believe so. Gavin, do you think you could do us a favor
Starting point is 01:07:51 and come down with COVID between now and then so you don't feel left out? We don't want you to feel left out. I'll do my best. I appreciate it. Hey, before we leave, I should tell you guys, guess what I ate for lunch today? Pastrami?
Starting point is 01:08:03 Oh. Yeah, I ate a pastrami sandwich pastrami yeah i ordered it and not only did i did i order one i ordered the pastrami sandwich the one that made me throw up oh wow it's been over a year now right yeah and it was fine i you know i i don't i think that the new one that i eat is better at the other place, but, uh, I'm over like it was fine. I didn't have any, any X or anything the whole time. I ate the whole thing.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Yeah. So I'm pretty happy. I think I've, I think I've, I've, I've, uh, climbed that mountain.
Starting point is 01:08:33 And where are we on corn dogs? Oh man, I can't eat any more corn dogs. Cause I wasn't gonna, no, I said no, no cravings. Uh,
Starting point is 01:08:44 yeah. Well, there's been some confusion. There's like an Asian hot dog place over... Actually, by that new hot pot place I told you about. And they have some crazy corn dogs that are like crazy Japanese corn dogs that seem pretty interesting.
Starting point is 01:08:58 But I just don't know. I feel like the line gets blurry and I don't want to cross it without realizing it. So I've just been staying away. But I'm a little bummed because some of them look kind of neat. That's such a strict rule. Listen, man. Do they call them corndogs? Yeah, some of them.
Starting point is 01:09:16 I got to, look, I got to be very strict with me. Like, this is, like, if I start wavering on corndogs and I'm like, you know, it's, you know, I'd set up music festivaling on corndogs and I'm like you know it's a music festival only corndogs and music festivals this is how I become an alcoholic again right like suddenly I'm like oh I'll just have one shot of whiskey and the next thing you know I'm a fucking I'm dead in the ditch somewhere so I gotta be
Starting point is 01:09:36 I gotta be strong against the corndog urge that happens with sodas and energy drinks you're like I only drink them at the office and then we had all of those energy drinks for like face jams so you drank some of all of them and then you're like and now i'm gonna have a red bull and it's like don't do this stop doing this i think what's interesting with jeff though is that when i think of what his code is it's not saluting and no corn dogs like those are the life that is you're a unique individual I don't think there's anyone
Starting point is 01:10:08 else that those are like the lines no corn dogs and the saluting I just don't think a journey has ever directly started with someone eating a corn dog and ending up in a ditch I listen slippery slope yeah and also I've been told I haven't confirmed
Starting point is 01:10:24 to myself but I've been told by some of the comment leavers that I can salute as of 2008 they changed the rule so I need to look and see if that's real or not because if it is I'll salute the shit out of that flag I'd be so fucking excited to be able to do that again you have no idea
Starting point is 01:10:37 oh god by the way I know I just keep rolling but I just haven't talked to you guys in so long I ran into the most lovely comment leaver at trader joe's the other day and uh he was working there and we had the nicest little conversation about f face so uh shout out to robert at trader joe's he was nice guy what did he bring up uh he likes the podcast we did andrew's a thing you know yeah usual stuff every conversation with a stranger is uh love the podcast and then a question about andrew like is that just not real people trying to get behind the curtain on andrew like i don't know any more than you do i promise i love i love those conversations so much
Starting point is 01:11:20 i did being able to talk with just random people in the world about this Canadian that I know is magic. It really is like when somebody comes up to you on the street and mentions f***face, it really is like saying a secret handshake. It's like saying, hey, I'm a member of a club where we all speak the same language and we all have the same interests. It was like back in the 90s, 2000s, if you like, you could be into all kinds of stuff, right? But if you met somebody
Starting point is 01:11:51 and they also liked the Beastie Boys, you knew they were like, oh, they're okay. Yeah. That's a big enough commonality that I could be okay with this person. I feel like when you meet somebody and they mention that they're a comment leaver,
Starting point is 01:12:05 it's like you just instantly all your guard's down a little bit and you're like, oh, okay, I know this person. Yeah, I've talked about it before, but it immediately eliminates a chance for me to suck at small talk. And we're talking about something that's real and that we both know about.
Starting point is 01:12:20 Great, love it. Well, should we kill it? I think we should. Yeah. Well, yeah. Not the podcast. No, no, the episode. Great. Love it. Well, should we kill it? I think we should. Yeah. Well, yeah. Not the podcast. No, no. The episode.
Starting point is 01:12:28 Yeah. Of course. Okay. Well, this is that then. Podcast is over. This is the post pleasantries where we tell you that, hey, if you really do like
Starting point is 01:12:39 F*** Face, if you like to listen to it, even with a semblance of enthusiasm, it sure would be lovely if you would to listen to it, uh, even with a semblance of, uh, of enthusiasm, uh, it sure would be lovely if you would tell some people about it. Uh, these kinds of podcasts,
Starting point is 01:12:52 they live or die based on the, the like a word of mouth, uh, for some reason, but that's just the way it is. My hands are tied. I don't understand it. Uh,
Starting point is 01:13:00 but I know that if you tell people about face and then if they like face and then they watch face or listen to face and then they tell somebody about face, then sort of like the last of us seven to 10 years from now, we'll destroy the world. And that's kind of where we're headed. So give us all the stars and we'll see you next week. And we'll see you at RTX July 7th through 9th,
Starting point is 01:13:18 RTX Austin.com to get tickets. Come to the face museum. Wow. I saw some people say that the one where we immediately start talking about alter egos and Errol and stuff is quite a good entry point. I don't know if that's true,
Starting point is 01:13:31 but a lot of people said I would pick this one to show to a friend. Yeah, a lot of people are like, even people I meet, I had to make somebody, I ran into somebody in Italy who was like,
Starting point is 01:13:39 oh, what have you been up to? And I go, oh, I do this podcast F*** Face. And he's like, oh, well, I don't really listen to podcasts. And I was like, you have to promise me you'll listen to it.
Starting point is 01:13:46 Just one episode. He's like, oh, okay. Some people, if they're on the fence, they don't think they like podcast. Let them know they do.
Starting point is 01:13:54 You do like podcasts. You love them. You just don't know it yet. Jesus Christ. Open your fucking ears. They're great. How do they feel about drafts though? How do they feel about the tuxedo?
Starting point is 01:14:09 We had so many angles. You like cookbooks? That's what I've been up to. Okay, bye. Bye. Hey, guys. Major League Fan Jack here with a look at next week's episode of F*** Face. Poochie needs to return to his home planet.
Starting point is 01:14:26 How do you spell Jeff? Rise of the robot people. Which side do you sleep on? Cosmic Crisp loves us. And once again, Andrew does not eat the pencil. All that and more on next week's episode of F*** Face. We'll see you next time.
