Hey, everyone. Hey everyone, it's the RISC podcast this week brought to you by DC Comics stamps.com and
upstart.
I'm Gus.
I'm Chris.
I'm John.
Bye.
And I'm Gus.
It's Christmas Eve except it's not because we're pre-taping this.
It's Christmas Eve.
You're already in the middle.
You're already in the middle. You're already in the middle. You're already in the middle. It's Christmas Eve, except it's not because we're pre-taping this. It's Christmas Eve. You've already been reading this.
You've already been reading this.
It's Christmas Eve.
We understand if you're watching this live,
you've had enough of your family,
you need to get away from it right now and a half.
You need to unwind and get you some of your time.
We're here for you.
Or maybe they watch it together.
I know my family watches the podcast together.
No, they're in the bathroom right now
taking an hour and a half long poo to watch the podcast.
Thanks.
I hope you're enjoying your poo time.
Cheers. Cheers. Uh, you're enjoying your poo time.
Cheers.
Yeah, your poo time gross.
So Christmas Eve, Christmas tomorrow, I guess,
Christmas would be the day that this comes out for first members.
Yes.
I saw, did you see that tweet that the UPS store made that everyone
had to delete that everyone was giving them shit for?
What they do now.
They sent a tweet when was it?
A few days ago, I don't know when it was, December 16th.
Okay.
They tweeted,
if your child addresses a letter to the North Pole,
you can leave it with us.
We do threading.
Oh, that's a little too real.
What?
Who thought even for a moment that was a good idea?
I kind of...
There it is.
Oh my God.
You're fast, Jesus.
That's really funny though.
Aw.
It is funny.
It's hilarious.
That's the funny thing.
In a small group of people that you would say that joke to,
not on your like...
Public Twitter.
You're a public national brand.
Yeah.
What a bunch of idiot.
Someone got in trouble.
You know to be fair
I don't think anybody who would send a letter to the North Pole would be old enough or on Twitter or want to know
With the UPS store say I don't think that tweet like for all the three magic
But I just think it probably ruined someone's job. Yeah, probably they got told no you don't get to say stuff like that angry parents
Yeah, that's a what what did parents think happened?
No, it's not that would think that happened.
It's that you just don't, you don't publicly say things like that.
No, like, like, we're going to tear apart your child's letter to the whole.
Right.
Like, you can shred it yourself.
I'm sure parents have their own shredders at home or they're fucking stored in the garbage
or whatever.
Who cares?
Well, you don't fucking say it like that.
Yeah.
It's like they do that.
Chris's argument is like that parents maybe thought the
letters went to the North Pole. What do they think happened? Do they?
This is where we learned Chris actually thinks that there's North Pole,
Anna Santa. What's? Yeah, yeah, let's not rule it out as a possibility.
What's never known? What's the age? What's the age?
Because you've got to get into that point where I'm like,
should I? Is it like, nice? That's what I'm thinking because I'm getting to that point where I'm like, should I?
Is it like that's what I'm thinking and I'm getting close to having one of those.
I'll tell you are they they're not here are they're over there are they got headphones on.
They're over in another right Santa exists.
Oh, yeah.
Really?
Yeah, I remember what you want me to tell them.
You want to bring them out here and I can bring them here.
Let's make this a podcast on the podcast.
Exclusive.
Well, now I have a question, follow up question.
I'm going home to Trevor's place for Christmas
to his family's place.
Yes.
And he's a ten year old brother.
And I addressed the gift that I got to his brother from me.
Not Santa.
No, no, no, no, that's fine.
People are giving the other gifts come from other people.
Okay.
But then there are, there are, as far as like how my family
did it was that there are, there are specific special gifts
from Santa, from Santa.
Gotcha, okay.
I was like, am I gonna ruin the illusion for this kid?
Hey, thanks for having me over for Christmas.
By the way, this is from me.
Not Santa.
So then you never had like Santa gifts.
No, I never celebrated Christmas.
Yeah, that's how it works, Josh. I just realized Christmas. Yeah, that's how it works, John.
I just realized that.
I know that's how it works.
I mean, there are.
You're a fuck you.
You're just proposing that parents think
that the letter is saying it.
I was saying, there are some,
I'm just thinking about.
I've known of Jewish families.
I've known of Jewish families
to celebrate Christmas as well.
So it's not unheard of.
Yeah.
The moment I found out that there wasn't Santa,
well, I went up into the attic at one point.
That's where the attic was where Chris
got his thoughts.
It has a long time.
I went up into the attic and then I saw a bunch of
like art Easter Bunny baskets and all like that Easter
bunny would bring out.
And I was like, it was like confronting my mom.
I was like, maybe the Easter Bunny was just storing them there.
So the Easter Bunny ruined Santa.
Yeah, I was always like, it was like, what is this?
It's just why are the Easter Bunny baskets up in the attic?
It's so, it's the Easter Bunny not real.
And she's like, no.
And I was like, in Santa too.
And she was like, no.
And I was like, it was like everything. And she was like, no. And I was like, everything came crashing down.
How did Easter work?
Where did you were given a basket full of goodies?
She's the Easter Bunny would drop basket with some candy.
How did, why is this such a weird thing?
The baskets were in your house then.
Did the Easter Bunny come back and get them in secret?
Look, I don't know.
Yes, it was like the Easter Bunny would drop baskets
and then take them away. I don't know. I didn't think about it that much. No, but I'm saying, I'm saying know. Yes, it was like the Easter Bunny would drop baskets and then take them away.
I don't know.
I didn't think about it that much.
No, but I'm saying, I'm saying that's in press.
That like then that you come to that conclusion meant
that you were under the inclination
that the baskets somehow returned to the Easter Cup.
How old were you?
Oh, I was probably like seven.
Oh, wow.
That's pretty young.
Your mother could have come up with a lie to cover that.
Yeah, she didn't want to.
She was like, he knew he already. He knew, he already guessed.
Well, I had my ticket.
I had it out of the blue.
I'd take the out.
I would take the out.
There were other clues.
There were other clues.
What other clues, Chris?
So I remember one time at Christmas,
we were watching TV or something
and all of a sudden,
because we'd put reindeer food out in the yard.
What reindeer food?
It was just food that they gave us a class
that was like reindeer food.
You put like, I don't know.
It's kibble.
Something like that.
Dog food or.
And then we're sitting there and we're like watching
the L-set and there's like stomping on the roof, you know?
And then my mom was like, oh my goodness.
It's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's,
someone's probably saying that.
Yeah, it was saying this here,
or there's, in his reindeer on the roof,
get to bed, get to bed.
And so we're like, oh, and we ran and went to sleep, right?
But then I couldn't sleep,
because I was, I was saying I was here, right?
So I waited like an hour.
And then I like snuck out,
my mom was vacuuming and there were no presents out.
And I was like,
what was all that about?
Why are there no presents?
Why is he just vacuuming?
You're here to have it at this point.
You're here to have it at this point.
You're here to have it at this point.
You're here to have it at this point.
You're here to have it at this point.
You're here to have it at this point.
You're here to have it at this point. You're here to have it at this point. You're here to have it at this point. You're here to have it at this point. You're here to have it at this. This didn't care. Were you the youngest kid? Was it middle? Okay. This was like, they were already done with other kids
and like, you know the last one?
Who cares?
It's kind of folded.
So that was like what Clude me on about,
like, I don't know about Santa and I was like,
they didn't add up to me.
Yeah.
And then when I saw the Easter Bunny baskets,
I was like, this is all scam.
It's all fun.
I thought you were gonna say that like,
your mom said like, oh, Santa's here to get you
to go to bed.
That way like, her and your father could have some alone time and we like, we, Sanice here to get you to go to bed. That way, like, her and your father could have
some alone time and be like,
we'll get those kids to bed.
Like June 18th and then I said,
I said, you're home to bed.
So it's like sitting on the couch,
you're like more teeny, he's like,
it was bitching like,
I don't know how much longer I'd do with Chris.
Yeah.
We're gonna stop on the roof.
I do have a question though, because these days,
I don't know how any kid still believes in Santa
or like doesn't get the information that it's fake.
Just from being.
Because of their access to a lot of information.
Online and information.
I mean, what do you believe?
I think the answer is that is the opposite
of what this tweet is,
and that there is a general
Like rule that publicly viewed things and things on TV if you're ever on TV during Christmas and that kind of thing
Or anybody could be watching you don't say those things. You don't say that he doesn't exist
We're gonna say that kind of stuff and so like if you watch
Yeah, I was like wait, wait, this is a publicly this is this is a very specific thing
You'd have to download and what and listen yourself and we have an adult. I'm like, we're, wait, this is a publicly. This is a very specific thing that you'd have to download
and listen to yourself and we have an adult.
I'm like so terrified this whole time
that your kids are gonna walk in here.
I don't care at this point.
He was looking for an out.
And so, they also, my kids also take everything in stride.
I swear if I told them they didn't exist,
they'd be like, okay, I still get presents.
Yes, that's fine.
They don't care.
You should be like, no.
But that was it. If you watch the news, the news will never ever say that Santa is a
thing. We have like fake trackers. The news that like that. Tom stories today, Trump tweeted
blah, blah, blah. And uh, Santa is not real. Have a good. Yeah. You don't see advertisements that
say they, and there's no billboards that say like that. Everyone plays this public game of
you don't spoil. Right. Speaking of which, I want to talk about something for a second. Let's talk about something
for a second. On a podcast. We did that a million dollars but animated thing that came out a
couple of weeks ago. Oh yeah. You animated it. Yeah, it was Bernie Jeff and myself and we had
different scenarios. Hand drawn by guests. And I've made it all. And Jeff's scenario was super long.
It was so funny.
Super involved.
And the reason that came about is, we're all scenario.
We sat right here, actually, and recorded the audio.
Blaine was directing us for our scenarios
to record all the audio.
And I think what Blaine said was, just
try to keep it kind of short and not that crazy that way.
It's easy to animate.
You don't tell Jeff what to do or what not to do.
Any rules like that, yeah.
And I think Jeff talked for over half an hour, setting up his fucking scenario.
And it was just like excruciating pain where he's going into the most minuscule detail.
And you know, recorded the whole thing and we're done.
And Blaine kept trying to interrupt him
throughout all of this, like,
it's gotta stop, you gotta stop.
But he wouldn't, we're done.
And Blaine comes over, he's like, okay, great.
Let's do another one where you don't say Ronan Farroks,
we don't know if that'll clear legal.
And I was like, nah, I did it already, it's done.
And it just walked out.
Wow, what a fun guy.
So I was curious, I didn't know how they were going to address them until the episode finally came out.
And I was like, oh no, they kept the road and fare stuff.
Oh, they did.
It's strange with Jeff.
There is like, I feel like there's two different Jeffs that you get, but you don't get
to know which one you get that day.
And one is there's a Jeff that like, he's down to just do whatever.
He just like, he's just like, fuck it.
I'll do it.
He's just he'll roll whatever stupid thing that you got going on. And then there's the Jeff that you get that's like that where, tell him not to do whatever. He's just like, he's just like, fuck it, I'll do it. He's just he'll roll with whatever stupid thing that you got going on.
And then there's the Jeff that you get
that's like that where, tell him not to do something.
He does it.
And then ask him if we can do it again,
he goes, nope, and just, you know, says,
I'm out of here.
That's like, it's just too, like,
so you just don't know which one
you're gonna get that day.
Yeah.
How do you, I get that sort of power here.
I think it's all about like long term foundational setting where you have to set
those expectations of what you are as well as it's got to be married with a position of power
that you can get away with that kind of stuff.
I guess if you're one of the founders of the company.
Yes, you can get away with some stuff.
You should get away with more stuff.
I need to get away with more.
Yeah, you need to take advantage of it.
What can I do?
I think you might junk air out.
I think you've actually become like more. I might be
jinxing this, but I think you've become actually like, you've seemingly become a little
bit more like low key and just like collaborative. The word I was looking at was like you were
never disrespectful, but for some reason you're even more just like respectful now.
I'm gonna be a team player. I'll do whatever. whatever. Yeah. Oh, and everyone, I have fun.
Yeah, I want to show.
I want to it's all to succeed and do fun things together.
Yeah.
I just need to say no to someone the other day.
What was it?
Oh, someone had a fucking stupid idea for the podcast.
Was it Eric?
Probably in the room right now.
No, are they here?
No.
No, they're not here.
It was awful.
What was it?
It was some sponsor deal that they wanted to do.
And I was like, I think my reply was,
this is a terrible idea.
And you feel like.
And you feel like.
But we're not doing it by the way.
That's funny.
I was gonna say, I reminded myself of someone I said,
jinxing it, I jinxed myself a couple days ago.
No, yesterday.
I hurt myself at the gym, really bad.
But the reason why it dawned to me
that I jinxed myself to it was that I woke up that morning
and I took a stupid picture of my legs
sticking up straight in the air
and posted on Instagram story and said,
I'm up because I was up at like six o'clock in the morning.
So I was just looping and just being down on Instagram.
And then I went to the gym and I climb at a bouldering gym
and that's a normal thing for me to do
and I go up and down walls.
And part of bouldering is you, you could fall all the time.
And at the bouldering gym, the most you're gonna fall
is like probably-
Pat it floor.
The entire gym is a giant crash pat.
And it's an extra
spongy one that as long as you just like roll into the fall or just land on your back,
you're fine.
You also have a harness or is it?
No, it's all it's all free climbing and but like it like I said, it's like jump like
falling on a huge bed of pillows.
The walls get up to maybe like 15 feet high and I fall from the top and it's no big deal.
However, there was this one climb that I was doing in the back corner that wasn't made
up of the normal grips that they put on the walls.
It was made up of a bunch of these things called volumes, which are basically geometric
shapes that they screw into the walls that make the walls more textured and have different
kind of parts that jet out and everything like that.
It's really fun because it makes it much more repuzzle. And so I was trying this one over and over again.
I kept failing on it.
I tried it on the weekend and I failed it, failed it, failed it.
And so finally, I thought I'd figured out a place
of my foot that would fix it and I'd be able to get up there.
So I get about three quarters of the way up.
Some about like 12, 15 feet off the ground.
And I try my moving and it actually works.
But the problem with these volumes is that often they're harder
to grip onto with your feet
than the actual, like an actual hold on the wall.
So I slipped and I fell.
Again, which would be normal.
Worst thing usually happens is you get a little bit
of almost like a rug burn from the grip of the walls.
People are a fall on each other.
Now there's like, hopefully, there's a general rule
that you constantly give everyone a wide birth
as you walk around the gym to walk underneath people.
It does scare me though,
because some people just let their fucking kids
run around their like eight weekends.
And I'm like, I'm going to kill a child eventually,
or I'm gonna watch a child die as like, you know,
200 pound man falls on it.
Kids are bouncy.
There's no land, they're both still soft.
Yeah, and it's a crash pad, they're fine.
But so I fall, and like I said,
it would normally be fine,
except that I was on a wall
that there was more stuff sticking out.
So as I fell, my right foot caught the volume.
So my body kept going down,
but my foot caught and my leg just kept going up.
Wow.
So instead of a nice, just fall back,
I fell, caught my leg, my knee went up,
and then that even jostle of me was like landed bad,
and like even my neck is sore because of the high
line on the ground.
And so I busted my leg really bad,
and the staff was really nice,
and they gave me ice packs and everything.
But as I'm sitting there on a couch in the gym
with an ice pack, I looked down,
it was the same leg that I took a picture of,
it's sticking up in the sky that morning.
That's kind of creepy.
Yeah, and so I just took another picture of it
because the first one said, I'm up.
So I just took it in the picture and said, I'm down.
Yeah, I saw that on Instagram and I was just like,
oh, maybe he's just icing his legs in preparation.
Nope, I did a fall and it hurt
and it hurts right now still.
Did you see that?
Don't ever take a picture of me on your Instagram, please.
I think my Instagram's a death note.
Yeah.
That's what it is.
It's being a falling and twisting your leg. Did you see that Twitter video of the woman falling? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm this. Oh my god. That's when that's like ragdoll effect.
Yeah.
And like in like half-liver something.
Oh my god.
God damn.
This makes you think of a question though, because this actually came up when I fell was
the good thing about working on the mornings that the gym.
That's just terrible every single time.
Don't watch her right foot.
Do not watch her right foot.
Oh god.
I don't know if we could find this one,
but one of my favorite videos of all time like that
is it was from some fashion show
and there was a model who was wearing giant ones.
And she starts wobbling and then composes herself
and then starts wobbling again even more
but her feet are just going like this basically
until she ends up falling
but the lead up to it is one of the spots.
Yeah, she's like slowly building.
Well, so she fell eventually?
Yeah, yeah.
And then someone came up on the runway
to help her back up and then she fell again.
Oh my God.
That's like comically terrible.
I thought you were gonna say that she recuperated
because that is the basis of one of my favorite sub-rates,
which is just no, no, no, no, no, yes.
Oh, yeah, I love that one.
Which is just sequences of things
that are bad, bad, bad, bad, recovered.
It's fine.
I'm very end-safe it.
So it's like a happy ending gift is what it is.
Yeah.
I heard myself yesterday too.
Wait, I have a quick question.
What?
So when I fell, it was one of those times where like,
as an adult, we fall sometimes we usually just recover
ourselves and we don't make it be good.
Well, we get the hearty fall.
Hope no one sees it.
This was a situation where I fell really hard
and I was in a lot of pain.
So I'm lying on the ground holding my knee.
Like when you see those football players
hurt themselves really bad
and they're just lying there, just can't move.
And I was making a lot of noises of pain.
I was groaning.
It was just sad.
I felt bad for a woman that was in a wall right next to me
that just watched this whole thing happen and then just sees this perfect stranger demolish himself and
lying on the floor.
And even in my pain, my like social awkward anxiety kicked in and I felt bad for her to
have to deal with some strange pain.
Because I could even, even through the pain I could look at her and she didn't know what
to do.
Like you don't know what those social things.
It's because you don't want to inconvenience someone else
because you fucked up.
I've also seen people fall where I'm like,
oh wait, if I go over there and make it's gonna make
a big deal about it.
Yeah, or do they want to like get out of it?
But it's also like you want, when you hurt yourself,
you want someone to be like, hey, you okay?
You good?
You don't want everyone just like walking by you.
You mean like, is this the way you're talking about Barbara?
But I was, I don't know if it is, but this is also a good idea.
She's not walking well. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, up. Oh my God, just pick her up. I know, just take the shoes off.
Oh, I hate it.
I hate it so much.
I don't know how anyone can walk in shoes like that.
I don't know why they do that to models.
Like just put normal my heels.
Yeah.
Don't give them like 20 inch platforms.
Terrible.
So you're interested.
Oh, well, it's not like John's story.
Who did you make feel bad for your injury?
My stomach.
Go on.
It's your fault.
It's my fault?
Yeah, you gave me that soup.
Oh, my fault.
So an injury?
What soup did you give me?
Well, so Barbara was like in the lunchroom, and she was like, oh, does anyone want this
soup?
And I was like, yeah, I do.
It's soup.
Chris answered so fast.
I was like, anybody, like,
cause there's a bunch of people in the kitchen at the time.
I was like, and I want soup, yes.
Like, and he was at the coffee maker,
like probably 12 feet away.
I was super hungry and I didn't have any food.
Okay, so I just eat and soak.
I was eating some soup, I was eating soup.
And then, and then,
Maryl came by with two more soups.
So then I was, she was like,
hey, do you want any more soup?
I was like, yeah. So then she was like, hey, do you want any more soup? I was like, yeah.
Wait, I don't understand how something could be
a quantity of a soup.
It's like one of those like, it's the little Madelons,
which is down the street, it's a restaurant here.
Oh, okay.
And they have like little cup soups.
But you didn't say two more cups of soup.
You just said two more soups.
She brought two more soups.
You know, the quantifiable thing of a soup.
It gave me a cereal.
Yeah, and they were really good soups.
The first one was great,
because the mushroom, second two were potato.
Second, yeah, third one.
I gave you the mushroom.
They were all the same.
The mushroom was great.
But the third one though, it started hurting.
And then I guess, what was the third one?
It was potato too.
There's two potatoes.
I gave you extra potatoes.
Two potatoes, two potatoes.
She missed orders.
Why were we hurting? Oh, it's a lot of soup. I mean, it, but I like had already accepted them
and I was eating them. And what? How old are you? 31. All right. So at the age of 31,
you still don't know when to stop eating. You get overeated any age. Yeah. And one year
from Bernie. I put the weight, he tells us like,
I was eating the third one, he was starting to hurt,
but I didn't stop.
Well, are you a dog?
Here's, no, no.
I accepted it.
If I didn't, I would have felt bad if I hadn't eaten it.
Why?
Because it was someone else could eat it.
It was free soup.
She clearly had extra soup, if she had two soups.
He would have felt bad,
because he was like, I'll take the soup.
And like if someone else was in the kitchen and like,
Oh, actually, I would have liked that too.
Okay, so you guilted yourself in the finishing end.
Yeah, it was also good soup.
So it wasn't the worst thing until like the last half
of the third soup.
I still like how you started the story saying it's my fault.
I like how you also tried to make this story.
I injured myself. I did. I did. I felt really bad all day.
I made yourself sick. That's not an injury.
Yeah, you made yourself...
You're like... Yeah, you did.
You made your life sick.
Semantically, you are so fucked up.
You made me... I injured myself by eating soup.
Like the way you would enjoy yourself eating soup is by burning your mouth. That. Like the way you would enjoy yourself eating soup
is by burning your mouth.
That's the only way to enjoy yourself eating soup.
For like 10 minutes after he ate the soup,
he moaned around the kitchen,
flaming Barbara and Maryall for making him sip.
For giving him, he just kept going,
I ate three soups.
They just threw me those soups.
That is not a day unit of food. It ain't fun, it ain't soup. It's a flavor of soup. I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like,
I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna be like, because you guys are in like this curtained off area right now. I was just moving offices and stuff. No one's moving here.
Just, just, just, just, just,
just, just, like, places.
Um, which we do like every two weeks here.
But I was back there changing
because I was modeling a shirt for the store
and I saw Chris come behind the curtain
and he was just holding a stuff again.
I think I made a mistake.
And I was like, what happened?
He's like, well, I ate your soup
and then I ate two more soups. That's like, well, I ate your soup, and then I ate two more soups.
That's like, what?
I love this classification of soups.
And you're like, I don't feel so good.
And I was like, yeah, you probably won't for a while.
Yeah, I don't know.
You learn.
I'm sorry, it's my fault.
Man.
I'll never offer you free food again.
No, no, please do.
Just with limitations. Just make sure I'm the only one offer you. Yeah, yeah. No, no, please do. Just with limitations. Like, just make sure I'm the only one off of you.
Yeah, yeah.
No, it's not your fault.
You offered one soup.
Yeah, you're right.
And you're really married.
One soup.
It's marial who gave you two soups.
Do you think you would have felt okay if it was just,
you had like one mushroom, one potato?
Yeah, I would have been fine.
It was the third one that's like, that was too much.
It's like the milk challenge,
but it's the soup challenge.
Yeah.
A little metaleline soup challenge.
How much soup can the human body be?
He's a little madman.
Man, we almost got this story without that shit.
We had a, I smell an Archie life, Chris eats soup.
Three soups.
How many soups can Chris eat?
We already know I can eat three.
Yeah.
Someone else has to do the challenge.
I can eat three soup.
You did? Did you eat all three?
I ate all three of them.
I ate some chips.
I ate some soups in here.
Did you have chips after the food?
No, I was like halfway through some chips.
So then I ate them with the first cup of soup,
which is good.
It was just nice.
Yeah, and then.
Downhill from there.
I'm done.

I'm comic good. Where do you go to buy a comics or do you buy a buy-mell digitally? I I used to I highly
Encourage people if you can to go to brick and mortars and and support comic shops
And I say that fully hypocritical and that I don't do that anymore because I don't space anymore. I read too many comics and
I have just boxes of comics in my tiny apartment that I keep shuffling around at different spots in
the apartment. And so I had to switch digitally. And also it became something where I travel enough
and traveling with comics is near impossible like bring enough. And so yeah, I just became something
like that. But if you are someone who's like a casual reader,
go to a brick and mortar and get a comic.
And I still do for like special edition ones.
I got the issue 1000 action comics one
was like the thousandth issue of that Superman comic.
I bought the physical copy.
How did the term brick and mortar come to exist?
It's interesting.
Because I mean, I know the term and I know what it means, but I don't actually
it's like what the buildings made out of. Yeah, but with a term that why it went, it's
an interesting question of when did we start referring to that as something different than
just what store was. Yeah. Store always meant an actual building, but then I guess online
the online world redefined what a store could be. Gotcha. Makes some of my sense. I'm trying to look it up now.
Brick and mortar.
Yeah.
There is something still fun about.
Oh, I just an article about literal brick and mortar.
This is not about the truck.
Brick was like, this doesn't make any sense at all.
This is just really confusing.
Yeah.
So where, right now, when this airs, where are you?
I will be in Indiana.
In my apartment watching,ubba Christmas Carol.
Oh, nice.
It's a city.
I'll be at my home with my mother and stepfather, I think.
In Austin?
Yeah.
In Austin.
Why?
I don't know.
Are you scoping us out?
No, I'm just saying it's kind of like, it's cool, because we're like, we're like time traveling.
Yeah.
And it's something that we know of plans that we'll have.
Yeah, no, I'll be at home, no, me doing that.
You better be, my crystal clear.
I will, it's my, it's my, I'm not a big like,
tradition person, but my one tradition for Christmas
is Christmas Eve before I go to bed.
I watch my Christmas Carol.
It's the only time I watch that movie during Christmas
and it's the last.
I haven't seen it.
Oh, it's so good. I feel like I during Christmas. And it's the last. Oh, it's so good.
I feel like I need to, I mean, I didn't celebrate Christmas for most of my life.
Yeah, up until like last couple of years.
Not a lot of good Hanukkah movies.
There might be eight crazy.
Eight crazy.
Yeah, thanks.
We had to 10 nice now.
It extended Hanukkah.
Well, it's a third.
It's Hanukkah for the 21st century.
And also the only example you come up with is a crummy animation when the Adam's down are made. Yeah. Yeah, not a
lot of good Hanukkah movies, but just starting to get into Christmas movies now and enjoying them
and need some recommendations. What are ones? It's a wonderful life. Die hard. Shut up. Shut up.
I got up. What are ones that you, what are new ones you watched this year?
I guess none this year?
I guess none this year, but... Love a Christmas care.
I should watch my Christmas girls.
It's so good, it's so good.
Yeah, Michael Cain.
I've got a little game for you here then.
Oh no.
I did a Google search for Hanukkah movies.
And it came back with three movies.
Fettler on the roof.
Can anybody, if anybody can name one of them
that is not eight crazy nights, you win.
Keeping the faith.
Sorry, that's actually, it's not a hot icon movie, but there's actually,
there's a whole Jewish line.
The rug rat is Ben still a comic, especially.
There is no rug, but there is a rug, a special.
Yeah, but it's not a feature, but that's a legitimate thing.
The lead family, Tommy's family is too.
I'm not on here.
That one episode of Friends.
Spin and Dredels.
No, you're gonna.
It's one of horror.
I want to say.
Hey, language.
What a horror.
What a horror.
Is it a horror?
I'll read them to you,
because I've never heard of these other different horror.
I really hope I've heard of one.
There's eight crazy nights, 2002.
Full court miracle, 2003.
Sounds like an air butt spin off.
The Hebrew hammer.
Also a 2000.
The Hebrew hammer.
All of these sound like porn.
The Hebrew hammer.
As a child, Mordecai Carver was keysed mercilessly
for his Jewish heritage by his Gentile Christmas
celebrating classmate on the neighbors.
They'll call it Gentile.
That's what I'm reading.
I know.
I'm reading the same description.
That has all changed.
Mordekaiser now a veteran of the Israeli defense force who offended himself, the Hebrew
hammer, defending his people against those who seek to do harm.
Was this a superhero?
His main antagonist would be Hanukkah Savatour Damian Claus played by Andy Dick, the evil offspring
of Santa Claus himself. I gotta find a trailer for this right now.
It's a take on black exploitation movies.
It's a parody.
Oh, it's a parody.
Yeah, we are not cool.
He brew.
Hammer.
We don't have cool movies.
Neither do Christians.
Christmas movies.
That's not Christian.
Chris is movies.
Oh, yeah.
Chris is movies you're thinking of are more pagan.
Yeah, you're right.
Yeah, nothing actually celebrates the holiday.
It's all about.
So I know like Passover movies.
There's the Prince of Egypt.
There's the
Christmas movie. There are, there are, there are.
Is that too original Passover?
Yeah, it is.
It is.
It's story of the original Passover.
Yeah, there's this is actually very good.
God, what's the movies?
It's like the, keeping the face of a good movie.
And they're seeing it.
Scott Ben Stiller, Edwin Norton and Gwyneth Paltrow.
What about the 10 Commandments?
10 Commandments. That has the FES.
What?
Jenna Elfman.
Jenna Elfman is the female protagonist in that one.
Jenna Elfman.
Thank you, Mike. It's not a dharma of Dharma and Greg.
Yeah, yeah.
I used to watch the 10y maimans every year,
because it would play.
Really?
Yeah.
And it was scare me as a kid.
What's the name of that league?
What's the name of a rug rat's casserole?
Ah, I told you.
No, you said it.
Yeah.
And Hanaka.
You said Hanaka.
There's, well, there's an episode of the rug rats that they
explain.
There's a lot of them.
And that's how most people understand Hanaka.
Yeah.
There's a lot of like an entire 90s kid generation
learned about Hanukkah from Rugrats, yeah.
It is funny though, because Hanukkah
within the Jewish religion is actually not
that big of a holiday.
It's supposed to other holy days.
Like Passover's way bigger,
Rosh Hashanah started the New Year.
But those are way bigger holidays,
but because Hanukkah is the same time as Christmas,
people want to be inclusive,
and so they've made it a much bigger deal than
what it is traditionally.
It's just interesting.
It's not a lot of.
I don't mind.
More presents.
Not a lot of Thanksgiving movies or Easter movies.
I mean, there's not only Easter movies.
There's a lot of Halloween movies.
I have my favorite Easter movie is Donnie Darko.
Oh, is that Eastern?
I mean, it's got a bunny.
That's the only I looked up Eastern movies and I think a lot of these are just movies with
rabbit.
There is a movie that's just called there's a 3D anime was just Easter Bunny.
Oh, I can first want to return to his hop was that in the movie?
That's one.
Yeah, he I think he shits out candy.
That's awesome. I guess he, I think he shits out candy. That's awesome.
I guess there's also six.
I shelt too.
I shelt out candy.
Male, like live action protagonist in that,
I think is James Marsden in hop.
They think he's voiced by Russell Brand.
Oh yeah, James Marsden.
Why do I know so much about hop?
Yeah, Russell Brand.
I need to know less about it.
Yeah, you know.
I need no less about it.
I know everything about it.
It's just a good memory.
I don't have that kind of skill to like memorize
actors and what they're in.
I'll blank constantly though.
Like it's just my memory of like of names goes in and out
as a Lydia switch is turned on and off.
Barbara.
Barbara.
I had a over Thanksgiving.
I saw a ghost or I thought I saw a ghost.
Go on.
I was staying in Dallas, I was staying, I saw a ghost, or I thought I saw a ghost. Go on. I was staying in Dallas, so staying with my brother,
but he had his now wife's family in town
at his house, but his room, his,
how long have they been married?
Why do you say no wife?
They got married like a month.
They weren't at that time.
Okay, that guy was just making sure.
Anyway, so his house was full.
So I stayed at his roommates,
or I mean his old friends house,
who was gone for Thanksgiving.
So I was just like placed by myself.
It was great.
And I was like Friday morning after Thanksgiving.
I was like in my underwear,
I was like, I'm cooking up some leftovers.
I imagine you and your tidy whiteies.
Yeah, well, and I was like, seeing into myself
and like, eating some leftovers in the kitchen,
and a little boy walks out of the bathroom and looks at me,
and I look at him and I'm like,
I'm like, I like, what the fuck is going on?
There's this little boy staring at me.
And you didn't know who the little boy was?
I know, because I was there by myself.
Oh, it's like, there's a little boy, so you. And you didn't know who the little boy was? I know, because I was there by myself. And then there's a little boy,
so you just walked out of the bathroom.
And I was like, I like double take,
and he just goes, hi.
And then walks upstairs.
What the fuck?
It was, and then, and then so I text my brother,
I'm like, who's this little boy in this bathroom?
And he's like, I don't know what you're talking about.
And I was like freaking out.
Turns out there was a cleaning lady who showed up
and that was her son.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God and then walked off and then walked off. Oh my god
So yeah, yeah no shit. I was like hiding. I wouldn't hit that you had your underwear on
I love cooking leftovers nude. I think we've given Chris shit for this before about what you wear when he cooks
Cooks in his underwear doesn't want to get his clothes dirty. Yeah
Does anybody want to get his clothes dirty? Yeah.
Oh my God.
Does anybody do an adventure?
I think even this.
I was at the very least have underwear on.
Do you guys have this thing where you feel safer
if you have clothes on?
Safer?
If there's a spider.
They're exposed, sure.
If there's a spider in my house
and I'm gonna go kill it and I'm in my underwear,
I have to go put clothes on before I kill the spider.
No, I do not go to that level.
Cause I prefer it to just jump onto my skin. I don't know, I do not go to that level. Cause I'm afraid it's just gonna like jump onto my skin.
I don't know what that mentality is or how that started.
But it's the same way it's like you feel safer
if you have a blanket on when you sleep at night.
I don't know how that started either.
Oh man, I finally got a weighted blanket.
I got one.
I got a 15 pound one.
I got 20, get on my level.
I wish it was 30.
Like I've been on and I'm like, I guess it's heavy.
I wish it was heavy.
Crush me daily. At least the 20 pound one, it does take, I like mine. It takes some getting used to there
being pressure when you readjust yourself in bed, because you're so used to be able to
just turn. But this is like someone mildly pushing on you as you try to turn. And so it
definitely does take some getting used to.
I went to pick up like I was going to, I was doing laundry the other day. I was picking up this big blanket
that was on the bed. And I didn't realize the weighted blanket was under it. And I picked
up what I thought was the normal blanket. Oh my god. It is.
Because it is surprising. I think almost every time you pick it up because it looks exactly
like a normal blanket. Where did you guys get yours online? I am a sound mind. I'm
not lying. Okay. I bought one in bedbath and beyond for Trevor for his birthday.
Thinking it'd be great.
It was like softer than the typical way to blanket side, I would see.
Brought it in, like gave it to him.
He was really excited.
And then we tried it out and it's weird because it's like a regular blanket, but inside
it has another layer with pockets, but it's like, it feels like little small marbles in each pocket.
Yeah, all the way.
But it keeps shifting around.
We had to smash down all the marbles
to get them to flatten out,
because they clumped up.
Oh, no, mine's not done this.
It's like not.
That sucks.
Good.
And so I'm thinking about grabbing another one,
returning this one.
So any suggestions?
No, yeah, I just got,
I looked at one that had good reviews on Amazon,
and I got a $20 on there.
Okay.
I didn't get mine off of them.
I got mine like direct from someplace.
I don't remember what it was called
after I looked it up.
Because everybody has the gravity blanket.
Yeah, there's like so many places now that make them.
Yeah.
You ever just take the weighted blanket
and just like ball it up
and then throw it like a net at Esther.
Oh God, I can't hear someone like that.
It's not enough to hurt him,
but it would be enough to like,
almost like those nets with the weighted things
on the edge of them.
I think if you're not expecting it,
it could knock you down.
Oh, that's a lot of it.
Yeah, if it was balled down.
You could throw it off the net.
Imagine throwing it.
It has to be gently placed.
Do you think, oh man,
do you think any kids have ever died?
From a weighted blanket?
From a weighted blanket? From a weighted blanket?
Like trapped?
Only weaklings.
Yeah, but like, you put through sparks.
Like, yeah, go shred their fucking notes to Santa
and then you put your kid in to bed.
And then like, he gets trapped underneath the weighted blanket.
I feel like a parent.
Hopefully you wouldn't give them that.
You can wiggle out of it.
Like, you can just make your way.
It's not like going to be pushing against you.
It's still like if you get intertwined in it, like maybe, I don't know if you'd suffocate,
but might get trapped in there a little bit. Like, I've been tangled with it. How about you
don't throw weighted blankets on the kids? Here's a stupid question. I'm trying to research this
for you, Chris. Okay. And I see here, someone has asked the internet,
can a baby safely use a weighted blanket?
Here's someone else.
Are weighted blankets safer babies?
No.
Maybe you shouldn't have a fucking kid, okay?
I'm on that.
I don't like people.
Just generally speaking, they ask questions like that.
Do they think it's gonna have that swaddling effect?
I guess.
Cause I'm big like when you like,
I mean, I know, I remember when I had babies
and the way I would get them to calm down
is just to gently push 15 pounds of weight on them.
You know?
And then if it evenly distributes 15 pounds of pressure
and then they would stop crying.
It was perfect.
Everything will turn out fine.
And you're gonna start working out young.
That's the way.
Push, push back.
Come on, roll over.
If you can get yourself out, you could have a drink of milk.
Yeah.
But everyone wants to try to get their baby to learn to turn over.
But you got to get a baby that can turn over with the way
to link it on them.
Strongest baby in town.
And then you have a super baby.
Don't put weighted blankets on your butt.
No, don't do that.
I didn't read the answer.
I assumed the answer is no.
It's not safe for a baby. it's not safe for a baby.
It's not safe for a child or a 29 year old woman.
Now I'm just imagining people like weight training babies. It gets them like, that sounds like a cool competition.
There's something where you just get like,
like at what age.
I think I've seen videos of like little kids
who like, who wait and they're like super muscular.
Yeah, and then they're deformed for their
life. There's one kid in particular.
Little Hercules or something like that.
Yeah, he was like four or five and he was like
fucking jacked. Like his dad had been training him since he was I
think like two and a half.
That's not right. It's not good.
Well, what does it do to them?
Six, okay. I'm sure it fucks with their growth
in the way that their body develops
in the way that they actually like.
Yeah, but think of all the ladies they're gonna get.
Oh, so many, so many.
Well, that's six year old Poon.
Yeah.
I don't like that you said that.
Don't like this.
This is gonna get demonetized so fast.
No, it took about 40 minutes for it to be demonetized.
Yeah, he's a... Yeah, he's a...
Oh, man, that's a huge word.
So weird.
Yeah, he could beat me up.
I'll give him my lunch money.
Yeah, he could look the way to blanket.
Yeah, it's safe for him.
Man, I read this super fucked up story.
I was saying, oh, hold on.
What did you send me, Eric?
Four exercises to help babies get stronger?
What are they? I'll make Chris do them. Uh, tummy time? I do tummy time at the gym all the time.
It's tummy time, bitch!
Sit ups, bicycling and weight lifting.
Okay, weight lifting.
Uh, I've done three or four of those.
What are they lifting?
Wow.
Oh, this little heart glue.
I can't gets so strong.
Oh, man.
Is it weird to think I want a body like that?
A little bit.
You know what, Chris?
It's not weird to think that.
It's weird to say it on a podcast though.
I can't wait to have all of these things
taken out of context and cut up.
Oh, no.
Weird to think that.
I was reading some fucked up thing.
I've seen that. I think I was telling John earlier
that we should do a segment on the podcast
like every now and then about just like weird news
that I read about stuff that happens in China.
So I feel like I read so many weird stories
that are originally in China.
And I think it's just sheer volume of people.
Like you have over a billion people.
It's the odds.
You're gonna end up with like a couple of weird stories.
But you have to have the courage.
If there ever was a human superhero,
they would come from China, probably someone.
China and India.
Someone who had powers,
it would likely come from one of those two places.
You ever see one of those maps
where they like put a circle around like
Southeast Asia basically?
And they say more people live in this circle
than outside of this circle.
It's like China, India and Indonesia
And it's like, yeah, I mean you have a huge portion of the world. I'll live right there. Anyway, I was reading this story about this man who in China
Who was sick and he had a fungal infection in his lungs because every day after work when he got home he would smell his socks
And I they suspect that like he
got some kind of fungus off of the socks that he was inhaling and was traveling into
his lungs that he needed to have special medicine. They said at first they thought he had
pneumonia and they were treating it like that, but like that it wasn't responding.
The only like fungal infection I could think of is athletes foot. So how do you get athletes heart?
Did it build up over time or was it just one time
that got a fungal?
You know, like, yeah, I don't know.
How do you even get to that point
where you are questioning the him
to try and figure out the sources
and you ask the right question
and which the answer is, oh yeah,
I smell my socks every day after work.
Like what's the question that they ask?
How do you do, do you?
How do you get that information from them?
I'm reading the article here to try to figure out.
You have any weird habits that,
or like, non-typical things that you do every day.
Maybe it's like, and then,
and then,
anything with, like, with feet,
they maybe they ask them with,
have you interacted with feet anytime,
or something?
Have you interacted with feet any time?
Have you, have you,
have you, have you, have you interacted with feet recently? Any type of feet? Have you interacted with feet recently?
No, I don't think so.
Well, you probably interact with feet every day
when you put your socks on.
Yeah.
Whoa, mind blown.
And I'd be like, well, sometimes I put on my socks and smell.
Sometimes I put on my socks.
Sometimes I eat a soap.
So after they chewed it in for pneumonia,
it wasn't a reaction to the treatment.
The article says, it was only later when doctors re-interviewed the man
that they found out about his daily socks,
niffing ritual, and realizes diagnosis of pulmonary fungal
disease could have been caused by inhaling fungal spores
embedded in the dank fibers of his dirt.
Oh my God.
Why did he become a physician?
He had become addicted to smelling his socks
that he had been wearing.
Is there anything you guys are addicted to smelling?
Oh.
Six year old.
Oh.
Oh.
I said everybody, we're thank.
Thank you for joining us for our two podcasts.
I'll ask one.
Call the cops.
Wrap it up, fellas.
I got no offense.
I think new something was gonna happen when he snickered the second ice in that.
Oh my God.
No, oh.
Is that gonna be the time on this episode?
No, no, no.
Can't it?
I think that's how you get banned from YouTube.
It's not live.
They're gonna cut off this.
That's how the video work goes up.
Or it could be Chris wants that six-year-old body.
I'm fine with either of those. You make the thumbnail. You couldn't work those out. Or it could be Chris wants that six year old body.
I'm fine with either of those. You make the thumbnail.
Something I'm addicted to smelling.
Nothing I can think of.
Or just like, I guess something you really enjoy
the smell of.
Like something unconventional?
I feel like anytime I'm in a new car,
I can't get enough of that smell.
Like I'm like, could you drive me around again?
Cause I just want to smell your car.
I just imagine you in a car breathing ever so heavily
just through your nose.
Yeah, are you okay?
In and out.
Heavy breathing.
Yeah, I love this small new car.
Yeah.
Right, John?
Right, John?
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
It's sound projects.
What is the smell of a new car though?
Because it's all like, is it soap?
No, it's terrible.
It's all, it's like rubber.
Yeah, it's all like the adhesives
and the plastics and everything that they've made
that are curing still.
Like it's still all settling and coming together.
It's just like, it's all cancer-causing.
And that's a good smell.
To us, to us it is.
It smells great.
I can't, the thing is I can't describe it.
Like fruit smells and vanilla smells you could describe. It's like sweet and sugary. I just see, I don't, the thing is I can't describe it. Like fruit smells and vanilla smells,
you could describe it's like sweet and sugar-
I just, yeah, I don't assume that there is a specific description,
but a new car sounds like it's gotta have some sort of
like source of what it is you're smelling.
I guess it's also like, it's not just new car,
but like new house and new things that are new.
Things that are new, but new car is a very special.
What's the newness?
I guess it's what Gus said.
Yeah.
The different plastic chemicals and everything.
Okay.
Mishing together.
Yeah.
The other weird China story.
Let's go.
Another weird China story.
Run the theme song.
One more time.
I'm going to read you the headline.
Go for it.
China breeds super cockroach to eat away 50 ton of day waste problem.
I love stuff like that.
This is, it's like the old lady who swallowed the fly.
Fly?
Yeah, there you go.
But this is going to lead to super cock villain.
I was going to say this is the part of a villain story.
Super cock villain?
I think someone said it's like the, it's the plot for men in black.
Yeah, it is.
But that's, but that's something we often do
is that in order to like solve some sort of problem
where we have too much of something
or there's like something that's running rampant
will genetically alter something else
or introduce another element that then fights that thing.
Uh huh.
And then it just all gets fucked up
because there's gonna be a side effect
we didn't think about.
Yeah.
And it's like,
Oh, runs as a side effect. How sp big is it? I think they're normal.
It's just like maybe they're hungrier. They're just really jacked like little hercules.
Yeah. They eat trash. Yeah, they just like eat trash. Uh, what city is it? Um, so I,
I guess they said Beijing in 2017 produced nine million tons of rubbish, which seems low for a city of that size.
So God, in Jinan, I think it's the capital of the Eastern province of Shangdong, they have
a plant that holds a billion of those cockroaches to dispose of daily waste.
A billion cockroaches are in this place.
So they, oh man, can you imagine like that many cockroaches?
Is that a sound that they're so any close?
Yeah, you gotta be.
Yeah, not enough clothes in the world to keep
out of the safe from that.
No, fuck that.
Cockroaches, man.
But they don't hurt you.
But they're creepy.
They are creepy.
Are you trash?
Could you walk through, could you walk through
a giant room filled to the brim with cockroaches
Absolutely not
For a billion dollars for a million dollars. Could you walk through some million dollars butt-ups? Oh no a billion a million
Just like the room million dollars. I do it for a million for a million dollars. Hey, yeah
What's the lowest amount you do it for would you do it for 10 grand? I do it for I do it for a hundred grand
Hundred grand. Yeah, let's count this count for this. Yeah. Yeah, so it's got to be her height. Oh, I mean, it's yeah
There's you there's no escaping. Yeah, they're everywhere. What is above your height? I have to be naked
What I do want to admit like
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
You're like, you can cover your stuff,
but you can't be like, you can't close up
and wear a suit that protects you from everything.
You get three corks.
Oh, God, she's wisely.

Great, great way to mail your letters to Santa
where they will not be shredded.
Yeah, I think I've heard stories before I remember what it is,
but I know that they do something with letters
that are addressed to the North Pole.
I remember when it was sent to Santa's, what they do.
Santa Santa.
They send them all away, express.
I don't express.
I give them to that cockroach.
I saw the other day there was a Southwest Airlines flight.
I think it was heading from Seattle to Dallas that had to turn around and return to Seattle
because they had a human heart on board.
Has anyone... Don't they have a couple human hearts on board? They had a human heart on board. As in someone,
don't they have a couple human hearts on board?
They had a human heart without the rest of the body.
So Seattle, so I went from Seattle to Dallas.
It was on its way to Dallas.
And so it had to turn around to Seattle.
They, I believe, because they forgot that.
Because they forgot, yeah,
or was it someone speaking in a heart like,
they forgot to unload it in Seattle.
I think that, Oh, wow. I think it was coming up from Sacramento. I'm trying to reread the article right now.
I'm pretty sure I said it was coming up from Sacramento because someone in California.
God, do you imagine if that was your heart? Well, the weird thing is that, so this was an article
I read in the Seattle Times that they reached out to local hospitals and no hospital set that
it was theirs. And also normally when there's organ transplants,
these private aircraft for that.
Not on a commercial flight.
So they couldn't immediately figure out
who the heart was intended for or why.
But they knew they needed to drown.
But no, I don't know, I don't know, maybe like,
I should say the Newtabour couldn't figure out.
Gotcha.
Who this heart was?
Imagine if you were, you're like, congratulations, John. We found you a heart for your heart transplant. Good, I've always wanted, it for your heart trans good. I've always wanted to it's on its way right now, and then you're like John
Got lost in the on the flight. I don't we think it might be in
If it's like your heart and you're there a baggage claim. Yeah, and all the bags are going around
Where is it? Oh fucking hell every time?
And then you go I and buy the counter.
I know I shouldn't have checked it.
And he's like, what does your bag look like?
Well, that's a white box.
Has a heart.
Has a heart on it.
What's the contents of it?
Human heart.
A heart.
That's it.
A heart.
That's a mice.
And one thing.
You weren't supposed to check liquids.
Shit.
Yeah, they, they, they, they, I don't think they could figure out where it was supposed to be.
I can empathize with this person because I had a similar situation recently.
Oh, and then real fast before you get to that.
Go for it.
And then when they returned to Seattle, the passengers had to deplane because the aircraft
had unrelated mechanical issues.
Wow.
Wow.
So we ended up with five on that flight.
The fucking five hour delay.
What?
Anyway, what's your similar story?
I had a very similar situation recently
where the other night, two nights ago,
I locked myself out of my car
as I pulled into my apartment complex,
which means I was locked out of my car
and out of my apartment.
And then you had to take a flight to Seattle
where there was a camera.
I had to take a flight to Seattle.
I broke your heart.
That's just like you calling out my injury
Hey, what if you still say what if I what if I finish my story?
Yeah, go ahead little piss pot go ahead. What if I
Please do finish John five is please
I found that I had three soups that I could eat while I waited for my no so I call triple A and
I managed to get to my office and get my office to let me into my apartment office,
to let me into my apartment.
So there, and so I'm like, okay, cool.
I just need to get AAA to come and open my car,
so I can get my keys,
because they're sitting on the driver's seat.
And so I call AAA, they give me a bracket of time
when the AAA person might show up,
which is about an hour,
and then about a half an hour into that,
I get a notification, they're on their way.
Here's a link, you can track them
the entire time they're coming to you.
Perfect.
So, this was happening while I was playing Siege
with Alfredo, and so the whole time,
I'm giving them updates on the person coming,
so I'm like, I'm gonna have to leave the match
to go get my keys from this person.
So I watch them drive from like down,
like southern part of Austin up towards me and they
finally get close to me.
So I stopped checking on them and then I checked back again 15 minutes later and they have
gone an opposite direction away from me.
And I'm like, all right, they must be like, I don't know, checking on someone else really
quick.
So they go all the way to another side of Austin from me.
Holy shit.
And then they get to this one part that's literally on the opposite side like lengthwise of Austin, opposite side of Austin from me. Holy shit. And then they get to this one part that's literally
on the opposite side, like,
lengthwise of Austin, the opposite side of Austin from me.
And they park somewhere.
And then they stayed there for an hour.
And so about 45 minutes into that, I was like,
what's going on?
Because we're now past a half an hour
before the point.
Are you able to like text or message that?
I hadn't gotten a number yet for the person.
All I have was a link to go to the,
so I could call triple A again and try to get information,
which I did eventually,
but then I found where like you could zoom in
all the way to where their map was,
and I could see the address they were at.
And so I looked up where they were at,
they were at an iHOP.
At the very least they were next to an eye hop and they were there for an hour
and then eventually I refreshed and they started heading towards me and they got like close
to me in front of me and we were like, we're on our way. Oh my God. I'm gonna get them pancakes.
Yeah, hungry. So I thought you were gonna say that it was a hospital. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, because that's what the person would have been. That would have made your story like the airplane heart
on the airplane.
Well, they were heading towards you with something.
And then they went the opposite direction away.
And then they finally came back, which is what that flight
takes away lower.
The stakes are way lower.
It was almost like I was making a joke.
Did they buy three soups?
They didn't buy three soups at IHOP,
which is very well known for its soup.
Did they get any burgers? And burgers? Because it was IHOP for a while.
Remember that fucking stupid ass shit? I have not been IHOP in quite a while.
Me neither. They just turn into an IHOP.
There's a restaurant here called Kirby Lane and they just open up a new location.
We're not really care for Kirby Lane. Right here.
Right here. Near the new Alamo. Oh really?
I saw that J.T. youngblo Right here. Near the new Alamo. Oh, really? Yeah.
I saw that J.T. youngbloods over there closed by the Alamo.
Oh, I'm not surprising at all.
Oh, that's dead.
Every time I tried to go there, it's closed.
It was good.
Yeah.
But yeah, every any time I went there, it was never, there was never anybody there.
Yeah.
It was like I'd be in there with like one other table.
I'd be like, I don't know how they're keeping the place open.
I have a really sad one experience in that restaurant.
That's the only time we went to that restaurant.
And Andy was there.
And it was on a day that I had gone out with a girl a few nights
before we'd gone on a date.
And by the end of the day, we had made plans to hang out again.
And so I waited a few days and I texted her.
And it was one of those times where I texted like, Hey, you want to meet up?
And she didn't respond.
And she didn't respond for hours and hours and hours. And it was like of those times where I text like, Hey, you want to meet up and she didn't respond and she didn't respond for hours and hours and hours
and it was like a half day and she hadn't responded.
And so I got very fixated and I was like,
I was getting like, I was getting upset.
That's the best way to put it.
I was like, Oh, I'm like,
cause I really like this girl.
And she had said,
she had been the one who proposed
we go on another date and she wasn't responding.
And so Andy was with me and we eventually went to JT Youngblood
and I was like, I think this has been like the second time
in a row someone had ghost to meet like this
and so I was really.
Well, she just said I hope.
She was just said I hope.
She just wanted to track her.
I use track her.
She said I hope.
Every time I go on a date, I give them a track.
Yeah, here's a link.
And she finally, I think while we were at JT,
text to me back and I got one of those text messages,
like, I don't think we should see each other anymore.
I'm really sorry.
Oh, that's so.
So that's my only one experience of that restaurant.
I haven't been back.
So both of you had a very sad experience.
But I got to see you.
He was like, I wasn't eating anything
because my appetite had gone.
Yeah.
And he's just eating his fried chicken. And so I finally got this text and I was like, I my appetite had gone. And he's just eating his fried chicken.
And so I finally got his text and I was like,
I wanna go home.
Oh, so he got his food to go.
And it was, and he's a great friend.
And we, and, because we were like in the same car.
Kept you company.
And so we had to go and get me to my car and I went home.
So, yeah, I really said to see that push go.
I wish we got locked out then.
That would have been it.
That would have been it. And then the triple leg I drive away from your house.
Rejection.
And you find out that he's gonna date with the girl.
Then you text you.
I really think you get someone else open your car.
I did get, I did get, I can't remember if I've told the story for it, but I did get redemption
one time about being ghosted by someone.
It might have been this girl.
And where she had, we'd had a very nice date.
And we had, and we'd even meet,
she'd been the one to propose we have,
we go on another date and even set a specific,
she's like, even set like a specific movie
she wanted to see with me.
And then she goes to me like that.
And just then, finally said,
I don't think we should, we should see each other
like anything.
And I don't ever like draw that out.
I actually just like, okay,
sorry to hear that.
Probably.
I think it was then like a week or two later that Cameron who works with us
comes out to me and he goes, Hey, did you go on a date with her name?
And I was like, yeah.
And he's like, I was like, I met her at a party recently.
And I'm like, how did you find out that I went on a date with her?
He's like, well, I told her where I worked.
And she put two and two together
and told me about you went on a date.
And I was like, hey, did you find out why she didn't want to go out with me again?
And he's, and he just looks at me with this look and he goes, yeah.
What?
And I go, you have to tell me,
is like, are you sure you wanna know?
I was like, yes,
because it has been bothering me for so since then,
that I just don't know why.
Why?
I wanna know why.
Go ahead.
I know.
I don't like this girl.
Which then brings into question
where this conversation came into,
or she just blurred it out.
Right. The reason why was because small dick
She hadn't seen my small dick
That's six-year-old dick
You've now said six-year-old poo in six-year-old dick in the same pot.
I did it.
That's a big goal.
No, do you want to know why she wants to go out of the day with me?
No, let's just all guess.
Let's just play this.
This is the game.
I can't get loose.
All right, small dick.
What else?
No, that's not my real guess.
My face.
Personality.
No, none of those things.
You're the closest.
Oh.
Oh.
You're a big belly button.
Oh, is it your toe thumb?
Is it your toe thumb?
No, she hadn't seen both of the thumbs yet.
She.
No, just tell her.
Yeah, I don't know.
I really want to know.
You were close.
Last guest, Barbara, you were close.
Your butt hole's too big.
That's a good guess.
No, she was a six foot one and I'm five ten.
Oh, hi.
But how did she just figure that out after so many dates?
Only one date.
One date.
Oh, and so she had been, apparently I guess, nice enough to stay on the date with me after
she had walked up and seen her short.
But you're not sure.
Short, short.
Short, short, turn than her.
I feel like if she, man, if it's that big of a deal breaker
for her, I'm surprised she didn't ask you.
Yeah, a lot of people on dating sites now put their heights.
I don't put my height or something that I think is stupid.
I don't care.
I've dated short.
I would think most guys would probably lie anyway, right?
At a few inches.
I've heard girls.
High? No, I've heard girl height.
No, I've had friends who told me they're like,
they go out with a guy and they'd lie about their height
and they're like five, two.
I guess, but it was like,
I mean, she was like just this much taller than me, you know?
And I think it comes from a insecurity aspect of, because like I'm a tall girl, I'm five foot nine, which know? And I'm taller than me, you know? Yeah, I think it's, it comes from a insecurity aspect of,
because like I'm a tall girl, I'm 5'9",
which I know is not 6'1",
but I'm typically taller than a lot of guys that I meet,
and especially when you're dating,
and it comes from like I was insecure
about being taller than a guy,
because I felt like more masculine in that sense.
I didn't feel like very feminine when I was with them.
And some girls are fine with it, and some girls are not.
I think it's like, it all is just a personal preference.
Yeah.
I don't know, just like some guys like big tits,
some guys like small tits.
Some guys like notits.
It smells like a Dr. Suss book, but for adults.
No.
Some like it green, some like it mean.
Six-year-old dick.
Six-year-old dick.
No.
No.
But now you know.
I'm trying to get away from it now.
Oh, I had another old story from China.
You just have a folder now?
Yeah, I've got a list of stuff there.
People are going to start saying anything.
Don't like to talk about.
They're going to be just getting a whole whole thing.
No, I forgot. This was in a different place.
This was from a few months ago.
And we just never got around to it.
But I'm talking about China stuff.
Yeah.
May as well throw it in now.
Let's go. More China. Roll that theme song.
China.
Chinese police discover chicken feet for sale.
46 years past sale by date.
Oh.
So they found chicken feet that had been produced in 1972?
Did they eat it?
No.
Well, someone might have.
It was, this story was from 2013.
So it would have been from 1967.
Were they finding it?
During a raid conducted in May, police in the Southwestern province of Guangji, said they
smashed the underground network that had been swamping the Chinese food market with
substandard chicken feet, tripe and throat.
That is a movie I need made.
They discovered chicken feet that date back to 1967.
Smuggling decades to China.
The expiry date was treated with chemicals,
including hydrogen peroxide to kill bacteria
and prolong the expiry date
and to make the feet look white and big.
Oh my God.
Smugglers were able to turn a profit of around it's a British my God. My mother's were able to turn a profit of around,
it's a British site.
So, my mother's were able to turn a profit of around
1,750 pounds per tonne, by transforming one kilogram
of out-of-date chicken into 1.5 kilogram
of apparently fresh chicken.
That is just, that's like the same as like cutting your,
you're like cocaine with like flour.
The chicken feet that are as old as the debut album
of both the doors and pink floids.
What the hell?
Like, injure someone?
I mean, it would injure them.
They would get injured.
Yeah.
They would get, make them sick.
It would make them injured.
Well, it would injure them, yeah.
But like, I mean, not just make them sick,
but be dangerous to their actual health.
You would think so.
Long term.
I would imagine eating anything that's been
treated to hydrogen peroxide is not gonna be
that stuff that's that old.
The chicken got smuggled into China from Vietnam.
Where in 1967 the Vietnam war was going on.
That chicken has seen some shit.
Why, I don't want to eat chicken.
That's a weird heist.
Like, like, I got, I got a plan, John.
Isn't it good?
John, let's make the movie. We're gonna make it big John let's make the we're gonna make it big let's
make the right do let's buy the movie rights we can do this terrible man I I've oceans
for a little trouble in big China is what oh oh I feel like I feel like we've talked about this
before but I've read stories previously about like no like food safety being such an issue in China
that there's like some counterfeit foods,
like there's counterfeit grapes and counterfeit rice.
And there's also like in some areas, there's problems with what do they call it?
They were, I figured they have a term for it, I forget what it is, but where some places
will collect grease out of the sewer system, out of the streets and reuse it.
I don't wanna, I don't wanna.
My, I don't feel so good.
I feel injured.
Make some really, oh, and I think the else
that counterfeit eggs was another one
that it wrote right about in the past.
So they're not real eggs.
Yeah.
What is it, like it's just made out of different ingredients?
Let's see, count.
Because like there's those vegetables. Go to oil. Go to oil. Oh, that was it. Because Let's see, count. Because like, there's those vegetable oil.
Goat or oil.
Goat or oil.
Oh, that was it.
Because there's like,
Cater oil.
Me that vegetarian's eat like that.
That's yummy.
What's that burger called?
Like the impossible.
The impossible.
Yummy.
And that's what I know.
But I wouldn't call it counterfeit burger.
It is though.
It is a counterfeit burger.
That's a real trying to be pet,
but it's just being,
it's actually openly being passed off.
Yeah.
It's not so counterfeit. Yeah.
I could see like, like,
chopping up little pieces of paper,
and making like, and mixing it in with eggs or something.
Or paper, like, you're gonna make,
you're gonna make a substitute egg and you went with paper
as your first thing.
Yeah, yeah.
If you shredded it up enough,
and like made it all,
this is from time.
They had an anonymous source that explained how the fake eggs were made. They prepare a mold, then they mix the right amount of resin starch,
coagulant, and pigments to make the egg white, to make the egg white. Then sodium
alginate extracted from brown algae gives the egg white
the correct viscosity. Then add fake egg yolk, which is a different mix of resin and pigments.
Once the proper shape is achieved,
an amalgamate, a paraffin wax,
gypsum powder, and calcium carbonate mix up the shell.
That's a lot.
So it's just a bunch of like gelatin shit inside of it
with like salt and coloring.
Yep.
And that's cheaper.
I guess so.
That's so weird.
No thanks.
I'm good. I love it. I'm 2012.
Hey, Dex this morning.
In other news, non-China news.
I don't know if you guys saw the new commercial for, I think it's like Google
home with McCulley Culkin.
No, I haven't seen what?
It is.
This is something that you would think people would hate, but I watched the
ad.
Wait, I can have McCulloch and my home.
No, it's an ad for the Google Home.
And it's basically McCulloch and recreating scenes from home alone.
Yes.
With the Google Home.
That seems awesome.
And I fucking loved it.
It made me really nostalgic.
It got me really excited.
I want McCulloch and it to me when I come home.
It was like they had the like video
of like someone ringing the doorbell for a pizza
and he was like, keep the change.
It feels the animal that scene and.
Have you seen Home Alone?
Oh yeah.
Okay. You hadn't seen a lot of Chris Moose.
So it's like that.
Home Alone, those movies are.
I've seen Home Alone too.
Three is with a different.
Three, yeah, yeah.
I think I saw that.
Four is also a little different.
There's a four? Yeah. In fact yeah, yeah. I think I saw that. Four is also a little bit more. There's a four?
Yeah.
Yeah.
In fact, I think, if I remember correctly,
Red Letter Media on YouTube recently watched
Home Alone 4 with McCulley Culkin.
Wow.
It's from 2002.
There was a really funny thread on Red at the other day
where it was like, which movies could have been
avoided altogether if the main character
wasn't such an idiot?
That's probably half for the movie's from the other.
And someone said, home alone too,
if he just waited till he was on the plane
to change the batteries in his camera.
Oh yeah.
That would, the whole movie would have been avoided.
Yeah, well, there's a lot of movies that like,
if it's just that, you remove that one moment.
Yeah, how many of you are about to get a four hour play?
Comment a lot better.
I mean, comedies can pull that off.
Yeah.
More so than a drama.
Yeah. That was, that was probably, well, I don't want to get into Star Wars, but the main character
in Home Alone 4 is named Kevin McAllister. So it's the same. Yeah. Well, what's the main
character in 3? I think it's Kevin's, but he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like,
he's like, he stays the same. He doesn't look the same. He's like, no, he's like, he's
like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like,
he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he Huh Garfield just never ages the cat Garfield's the car too. He's comic the cat
Yeah, well, you know never mind. All right. That's bad comparison never mind Wolverine ever ages the Simpson
A baby from family guy never ages. It's great. Yeah, it comes like magic
I don't think the character in did they skip Kevin and then go back to Kevin
character in the skeleton Kevin and then go back to Kevin. Yeah.
How many Beethoven's are there?
Alex Lins is the main character, the name of the main character in homalone three.
But it's the same actor in four.
No, it's a different actor.
But it was it was McCulloch and McCulloch and different actor, different actor. Gotcha.
I thought it was.
I'm not Mackeven Mackellister.
Not Mackeven Mackellister.
Kevin Mackellister.
Kevin Mackellister.
It turned it. It's kind of like when the born identity. Not Mc Kevin McAllister. Kevin McAllister.
Then we turned it.
It's kind of like when the born identity was like, we're going to Jeremy Renter's story.
And then it was like, we don't want Jeremy Renter's story.
So we went back to Jason Boren's story.
I feel like Jeremy Renter was like, Hollywood was grooming him to be like the next big person.
He was Jason Boren for a while.
He was in Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol.
And he was like, oh no, he's going to be like the new Ethan Hunt.
Yeah, he was in the Avengers movies.
And then Jason Bne was like,
no, no, we don't want him to be our Jason Bourne
and Mission Impossible is still Tom Cruise.
Yeah, you only did one movie with Mission Impossible.
Need you to?
One movie, two camera, but he's not in the most recent one.
No, which is a, maybe the best one.
It's fantastic.
Oh, actually, I made a list.
I just bought it the other day.
Mission Impossible.
Yeah, I made a list of all the movies with 2018 theatrical releases that I saw this year.
And I'm up to 54.
Damn, that was good.
And so I saw at least one new movie a week at the minimum as far as averages go.
But I never asked me to go to the movies.
Yeah, 54 chances.
I had 54 chances.
I would say on average, if I had to make a guess, 35 of those to 40 of those were by myself.
I still had like 30.
I go to the movies all by myself.
I know some people have like a,
some people have hangups about like going to the movie by yourself
or going to a restaurant eating by yourself.
I love it.
What does this be awesome?
Yeah, I love both of those.
See, whenever we're on a trip or traveling,
it's like if I get to go somewhere
and like eating a restaurant by myself,
guess please.
It's great. You probably don't get to do that often because eating a restaurant by myself. Yes, please. It's great
You probably don't get to do that often because you're married. Yeah, I'm not complaining about last about that
I'm just saying like it's I think I I've even before I was married I never had any problem. Yeah, getting by myself. I think it's awesome going to movies is like a special treat
Even especially at Alamo
You can go by yourself watch the the movie and have a nice meal
also while you watch the movie.
So it's like a fun, just thing to do by myself.
And for the movie's bad, you just start ordering drinks.
Yeah.
What are your bad movies last night?
Favorite things to do by yourself.
Besides masturbation.
Besides masturbation.
I mean, that's number one for every masturbation.
Massimation.
Massimation.
I mean, movies working out and I'd even say play video games.
Because I like single player games the best.
I would say also movies shopping.
I like to shop by myself.
I don't really like to shop with other people.
It stresses me out a little too much.
I do headphones, you watch.
I can't shop by myself.
I hate shopping.
I have to shop by myself. And then I know.
I know.
I also like just going to like coffee shops by myself.
I like doing that.
I like doing that.
Just to like work on stuff or read, chill out.
I like to read by myself, making breakfast.
That's my favorite thing.
Making breakfast.
But that little kid ruined it for you.
He ruined it.
Yeah.
That little fucker.
I know.
I was having a great time. What was his name? I didn. Yeah. That little fucker. I know.
I was having a great time.
What was his name?
I didn't ask.
I hid.
Chris.
I hid.
But yeah.
Young Chris.
It was you.
Oh, that'd be trippy.
From the past.
I was definitely not going to say the future and I was like, that's not right.
But I did make a, I've made, I tried to figure out what were my top five movies of the year,
but I'm curious if you can just recall your favorite movie of the year.
Like I'm sure if you looked at a list, you could find exactly which one.
We talked about this, I think,
the other week on the show.
We talked about movies that people
should see that maybe they hadn't seen.
This year.
In 2018.
It's great, it's pretty good.
It's great, no.
And that's probably what we're thinking about it.
That's probably so.
I can't remember.
You said that it was not on the Amazon Prime in like a day or so. Avengers. It might be. That's probably why you're thinking about it. That's probably so I Can't remember
Amazon Prime and like a day or so
Avengers might be if you haven't seen a
Vengeance fallout. I'll be up there. I think was my favorite movie experience. I could fall out of three. I really enjoyed
Ralph Breaks the internet
I did not you didn't like it did not like it. Why not? I thought if you want my
Opinion and I don't want to make my opinions sound like you're I think lower view because you like it
Movies are subjective absolutely but personally and it's probably enhanced because I just seen crimes of Grindelwald as well
And I think this is a a perpetrator of this as well is that Ralph breaks the internet was very much something that I think was devoid of actually a worthwhile story or
sensible characters or character development and instead was an nostalgia button which is
scream about
Inside jokes that people get which is the internet a lot of inside jokes flex all these IPs you have
Which is Disney and just like ah we have the princesses and star wars and Avengers and that kind of thing but
like, ah, we have the princesses and star wars and Avengers and that kind of thing, but um, not actual and also skirt around a topic, the internet and YouTube in a, I think a
skewed perspective that gives a, a kind of a weird view on how YouTube actually is, the
effects it has on people and how the internet has effects on people and do it all in this
way that just kind of punches that nostalgia button and people's heads.
And enjoyed it for it simplified versions of those.
And so that's all like fully admit to movies being subjective and that kind of thing.
And that I thought it was very charming and just I was smiling the whole time.
Yeah.
And I'm usually very easy to please when it comes to movies.
Like if I just had a good time watching it, I'll say like, that was a good movie.
Can you think of the last movie you really hated?
Was it hard even the hate it is so strong I can last I hate the most recent Jurassic Park and that was I did make a list of my top five movies and I think that's number two of my
It was it was a press. Yeah, there's a lot of money to make a really bad movie
It was not impressive. Yeah, that was impressive.
Yeah, a lot of money to make a really bad movie.
Yeah.
Bar, I'm so like, look a month.
I was thinking this means,
I mean, you know how I invited you to that escape room
like a month or so ago, whenever?
I mean, escape rooms.
Well, it's just Chris, it's just Chris is basically,
I'm not gonna fuck in the bunch of movies,
you know what I mean?
I have only been to like,
it was only like one escape room.
So you had one chance to invite it.
I invited,
Bar, I had an extra spot in the escape room,
invited bar because we were,
it was a bunch of fun house people
because we were working there, it was in a circle.
No, not friends.
Super glad, super glad that you didn't come, Barb,
because whenever we got in there
and we were like, count it up, we had enough people,
we had, we had the max number for the room.
Yeah.
I didn't count myself.
Oh no.
So I would, I was like, I was like, wait, how did,
I was like the head.
So if I came one person would have to shout out.
Yeah.
Wow.
Well maybe they would have let us do it
with an extra person.
But it was like one of those things,
I was like, we get as many people as possible.
And I was like,
that you were a fucker.
I'm really glad you didn't come.
We had to go Chris.
I'm glad I didn't come too.
Yeah.
I'm looking at movies from this year. And I don't know if there was anything I didn't.. Way to go Chris. I'm glad I didn't come to. Yeah. I'm looking at movies from this year.
And I don't know if there was anything I didn't.
I was like, I mean, Robin Hood.
I wasn't a big fan of hereditary.
What?
I thought it was okay.
That's like, I'm one of my tops.
But I was like,
just watch the recently.
I think it was too hyped for me when I went and thought.
That'll do it.
I think I just had unreasonable expectations.
It's probably been reason why I see most movies that I want to see Thursday night opening night I see them all I
Was and I don't also watch trailers. There's one movie that I saw which I thought was okay, but I think the hype around it was a little overhyped
Star is born
Hyper on that's crazy. It was people were like, this is the best fucking movie.
Oh my God, I got so emotional, blah, blah, blah.
Everything seemed like, I don't know what's the word for it.
Where it's just like a bunch of scenes put together
like very quickly.
Commandage?
Yeah, everything just seemed kind of like a montage.
Like, I don't know.
It just was a very disjointed, progressive story.
Yeah. Like things happened very quickly. And then like it jumped to this thing and like all of a sudden this was the way things were now.
I don't know, like I enjoyed it and it was okay, but I wouldn't see it again.
Didn't live up to the hype.
Yeah, which I'm afraid of first Spider-Man because I haven't seen it.
Spider-Verse, yeah.
I haven't seen that yet. Same here.
The better be like the perfect movie. It's number two for me for the year.
What was your number one?
Avengers.
Avengers.
I think it's hard to combat that.
What about you guys?
I'm just like what it did.
Incredibles two.
Did you see that?
We saw it together.
Didn't like Incredibles two?
I like the lot.
Okay, I did know it was great.
Did not not like it.
Thought it was passable and people liked it more than it needed to be.
Again, I thought it was.
I loved it. What do you think about Incredibles 1?
Loved it.
Bernie or Leipzig podcast did say he did not like it.
It's fine.
You're allowed to not like stuff.
No, he's not.
Not that.
Not the Incredibles.
I think I don't think you should dislike Incredibles 1.
It's in the fucking title.
It's incredible.
Mr. Uncréable.
Yeah, I thought Incredibles 2 was, it was okay. Get out. I've got something I
want to bring up. I'm going to bring up the first. I want to read this. I wonder if I
wonder when this absolute receipt podcast is brought to you by Upstart. A plan for a loan is a lot
like a plan for a job that you don't get to interview for. Instead, loan companies make their
decisions based off of your credit score and history without getting to know the whole you.
Now thanks to Upstart.com. It never has to be that way again. Upstart is revolutionizing the way
you borrow money by rewarding you for your job experience and education in the form of smarter
interest rate. So, you know, if you have extended circumstances that you'd like to take into
consideration, you could absolutely factor in and help you out here. So, on electrician
credit, underwriting, which could be biased against people
with a short credit history,
which I've definitely suffered from in the past,
upstart goes beyond the traditional FICO score
when assessing your credit worthiness.
Upstart believes you're more than just your credit score,
they make it fast, simple, and easy to check your rate
in less than two minutes
without affecting your credit score.
Once your loan is approved,
the funds will be transferred to you
the very next business day. So, hurry over to upstart.com.com slash rooster to find out how low your Upstart rate is,
checking your rate only takes two minutes and will not affect your credit. That's Upstart.com slash
rooster. You know, it's really weird how all of that stuff works when I went to, I went to buy my
first house in 2008. I couldn't because I didn't have any credit history. Yeah. And they were like, oh, you need to build credit history.
And it's like, oh, okay.
So I had to spend like a year building credit before.
And then after you're like, okay, now we believe you that you can buy a house.
It's just really bizarre.
It's a work.
It's a work.
That's the way that that system works.
I'm like, that would be really helpful if you obviously have a job.
At the time, I actually had a job and I could have bought a house.
They had to go to this formality ahead of time.
So I like stuff like that.
Anyway, I was gonna say about movies.
Another movie that came out this year,
I think disappointed a lot of people,
was Cloverfield Paradox, which was the direct Netflix release.
I haven't seen it.
But I thought it was fine.
It's, it's not a weird.
That was a weird movie to watch the reaction to
from an outside perspective,
where I wasn't able to get around to watching it while everyone else was watching it still haven't seen it
But it was like watching the reaction of people and like the the varying degrees of how people were like responding to it was weird. It was fine
I think people some people really hated it. I didn't love it
I like the chlorophyll universe. I think some interesting ideas
But one thing I guess that just came out the day that people realized is I have you all seen the first Cloverfield? Yeah. I only saw a Cloverfield 10 Cloverfield.
Which is the best one. The first one. The first one is a genuinely good one.
That's like with the... That's like with the... The second one.
I mean, there's only, that was the third one, right?
Cloverfield Paradox. The first two are both good movies.
So the first one's like a Godzilla movie or something.
It's like people in New York City and then like a monster attack.
It's a big month, yeah.
But I guess someone realized that if you sync up and you start playing Cloverfield and
Cloverfield Paradox at the same time, that in the Cloverfield Paradox, when they activate
the reactor and the God particles created, that that's when the monster appears in the
first Cloverfield movie.
Wow.
Like to try to like synchronize the movies and let's go up.
That's kind of fun.
That's very cool.
Yeah.
A neat little detail.
That reminds me of a thing that the, you know,
the McElroy brothers, right? The McElroy brothers, like anything.
Love their videos. They have a side project that do with another podcast called Till Death
Do Us Blart, where they watch Paul Blart, Mall Cop 2, every single year, and then do a podcast
about it. And it's like the five and then do a podcast about it.
And it's like the five of them doing this podcast
and it's called to death to us,
blart because they have vowed to do this until they die.
So all of them die or one of them die?
Well, they've actually even made jokes
that they have to have a successor to fill in for them
if they die.
Oh my God.
So they do it once a year and that's kind of thing.
But last year,
I haven't listened to this years yet. But last year, Griffin synced up the wall with
Pink Floyd with Paul Harmall cop 2 to see if it could line up and reveal anything about it.
And so as I did the podcast, he kept saying like,
okay, at this point, this song came on.
It was actually releasing.
There were some times that he says it synced up pretty well.
But I think that's a fun game to play.
Do you recommend watching Paul Blart Mall Cop?
I have two before their podcast.
The last few years, I have enjoyed their podcast.
I've never seen either of the.
So Paul Blart Mall Cop two, it's just mouthful,
came out April 2015.
It had a production budget of $30 million.
Jesus Christ.
And domestically it grossed $71 million.
Yeah.
That's the payoff of those kinds of movies.
Or it's like basically all of Bloom House's entire plan
is low budget, easily distributed films,'s entire plan is low budget,
easily distributed films, then that make back their budget.
No problem.
Paul Blart, Moll Cop, the original, came out in 2009,
had a production budget of $26 million,
and a domestic gross of $146 million.
Wow.
First of all, that's better.
Well, $146 million.
Paul Blart, Moll Cop.
Moll Cop.
Moll Cop Blart.
I don't think I'm fine with never watching any of those films.
So for the sequel, they spent $4 million more
and made half of them for money.
Yeah.
The sequel.
And the first one is all people need it.
Will I be lost if I try to watch Paul Blart 2
before I watch Paul Blart 1?
There's a lot of narrative that are set up that, yeah,
you wouldn't be able to do.
A lot of lower in the first one.
But you need to know that. What a stupid, stupid movie. Set up that yeah, you wouldn't yeah a lot of lower in the first one
What a stupid stupid movie. It's fine. You can watch two towers before you watch fellowship You don't need to you know what's going on watching infinity war without watching 20 years of movies
You can watch like two towers 10 years. Yeah, if you're a few people watch two towers
I mean before yeah, like what it may I guess'd probably be able to figure out something.
I would be pretty lost.
I watched of Fast and Furious.
I've watched one, two, and seven.
Yeah, those movies you definitely don't need to have seen.
I don't know.
They're not like one narrative.
Actually, I actually do know because I watched one, two, and seven.
And I wasn't lost at all.
I think that's what I did.
I think I'm the same.
Is the one the one whenever he...
Is the one where they fall out of the plane
and the cars and the cars open pairs?
Is the one whenever the one actor died?
Oh yeah, so it's goodbye to him.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think it's the same, I saw the first one,
saw the second one and I was like,
all right, I've seen enough of this
and then it came back for that.
Yeah.
Cause the latest one is eight, right?
Faith is furious?
Yeah.
Fast, stupid movies.
No, no, it's stupid titles.
Big day hell. Oh, I hate stupid titles. They all have it.
Oh, I hate them.
I hate that the titles don't follow any sort of sequential process.
Oh, I imagine people with OCD probably are not a fan of that.
Bathers me.
Did you guys see a simple favor?
Was that a movie that you saw this year?
What was that one?
That was with Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick.
No, that's the weird-ass suspense one.
It was like, yeah, some like a murder mystery type thing.
No, I did not see it.
Did you?
I did.
I enjoyed it.
I heard some good things about it.
Yeah, it's surprising.
Check that out if you haven't already.
Chiquit-a-day recommendation from this year.
Yeah, cat.
The cat.
He wants the cat.
He wants the cat.
Why would he have that name?
The podcast cat. A dumps named itself. His name is dumps. The cat dumb us the cat. He wants to dump the cat. Why would you give me that name? I cast cat
It dumps named itself. His name is dumps the cat. He's a cat. He takes dumps
Why do I see the cat?
Now give him the tongue thing
I don't want to touch you guys wash it since Bernie stuck it in his
Yes
Even if Eric gets it I was confidence, I wouldn't believe him.
That was a liar.
I'm not touched.
Bernie didn't take it home?
Of course, Bernie doesn't take,
it doesn't, it doesn't,
it was a gift for mush the cat.
You're showing me this stuff.
So how are you gonna steal mush the cat?
I got the hang out with mush for the last day.
I saw you tweeted a photo of him, didn't you?
Yeah, they had to go on a trip
so I went and kept him company
and had the best day of my life. He planned that you? Yeah, they had to go on a trip so I went and kept him company. I had the best day of my life.
You playing with that pussy?
Yeah, I had a dream.
How old are you?
God, that's from tears.
Well, six and cat ears is actually probably a legal age
in human ears.
I had a dream.
There's a legal cat in the game, yeah.
A barber.
Did you catch named dumps?
No, I just been, I woke up thinking I had a pet,
like I had a dream where I like had a pet.
You have your recovery room?
I mean, I was not saying.
I mean, it is, but like not the same.
But yeah, I woke up, you know, like,
you were at all the same.
It's not at all the same.
You ever had this dream to be fall in love
with someone in your dream or something like that
and you wake up it or like that.
And you're like, man, that person doesn't exist.
I know.
I'm fat and low if you're every single night. Well, I, that person doesn't exist. I'm fat. I'm low with you every single night while I exist.
That's never happened to me.
Baby.
Baby.
But, yeah, I had this pet, and I was like,
this awesome cat, and I woke up, and I was like,
it's gone.
It never existed.
It's all my dream.
I woke up looking at my bed for this cat.
Maybe like cat does exist.
It's trying to find you.
Yeah.
I had one of the dreams last night.
I never remember the details of my dreams.
There's one of the dreams that was a stressful dream,
is a bad dream, but in the dream I realized it was a dream
and was able to go, oh, I'm stressed about this.
I'm just gonna wake up now.
And so I had that like self-realizing moment
and it was like, ah, the real world.
And that fades away.
It was fantastic.
It's gone.
It's great.
It's the best feeling.
Yeah.
I remember once I had a stress, like a nightmare when I was a, I was a teenager.
And there was a, like, it was like one of those nightmares where I was being chased and I was trying to run and hide from someone. Yeah. And I was like hiding and someone was trying to find me.
And then I had that same realization, like, oh, wait, this is just a dream. And then instead of
waking up, it became a lucid dream. Yeah, I've done it.
And it was like I was hiding in a room and then like,
I was like, oh, boom, the walls just fell away.
And it's like, okay, yeah, everything's fine.
I could do whatever I want.
Yeah, I didn't know that's what it was called lucid dreams,
but I remember when I was younger,
I had a reoccurring nightmare about this horrifying clown
that would scream and run at me and stab me.
And I would like, I would experience the stab.
And so it was like, I had it every night.
And so then finally one night, I just made some sort of idea,
like, well, what if I just changed the dream?
And so when I went to bed, I had like a different scenario.
I think like some sort of superhero came out.
I know you're talking about with this getting stabbed
or something in your dream
because you're like,
ah, and you're like,
why am I not dead now?
You're like, waiting to die,
but you just don't die because it's a dream.
Yep.
And I was like, you die immediately
if someone stabs you in the stomach, Chris.
Oh, I'm, I'm just saying is like,
one of those things where you get
ah, really, really?
Oh, I forgot how to wash.
I mean, I call them mud.
That is not mud. Dumps the cat. It's mush I call them mud. It's not mud.
Dumps the cat.
It's mush's cam that we're using for dumps.
Yeah, scratches all over myself.
So your reference route right now of your walls coming down remind me of something I saw
on Twitter, which made me laugh harder than I've ever laughed in my entire life.
Trevor was reading it out to me.
There's this tweet that this guy said, I forced a bot to watch over 100, sorry, 1,000 hours of house hunters episodes
and then asked it to write a house hunter's episode
of its own.
Here's the first page.
Do you want to hear any of this?
Yes, I would love to hear.
It was a great hallmark Christmas special one
that just came out as well.
We're it's written by a robot.
Yeah, I sent it to Andrew and I was like,
can we make this?
It's incredible.
I love the robot ones.
Exterior, town where houses are legal.
We see the house hunters.
One is man, other woman.
The woman's job is tooth doctor.
The man's job is marrying doctors.
Their hobby is giving away money for real estate.
House hunter man, I hunt for house with walk in bathroom, two car breakfast nook, and hardwood electricity.
Some bugs.
Some bugs.
We see the man's current house.
It is an active elevator.
Fuck.
I don't know how some of these things happen.
House Hunter Woman.
My list-wish house is I want no floors, all pipes, and stairs.
All pipes and stairs.
Must be in Seattle and Denver.
One bug.
We see the woman's current house, but don't know what it is.
House Hunter Man.
Our budget is one old coin. The man presents the coin it is wood the oldest metal the man and woman approach a house a real estate agent walks out
A real estate agent walks out of the house is lawn. He is too bald to trust
Real estate agent and this is the part that kills me every time I am Ralph
all right LP agent and this is the part that kills me every time. I am Ralph. Sorry LP. This house is one for living. 12 sinks, sex chimney, guest prison, 10 sinks, dining pool,
destroyable roof, and it's dangerously kosher. I am Ralph.
I'm just going to be dangerous at kosher. I am Ralph. I'm just going to be dangerous at kosher.
House Hunter woman, is there inside real estate agent?
I think not always. We find out.
There is inside. They enter first rooms. It is all sconces.
That are you pronounced out?
Real estate agent. This house used to be not a house.
The woman kicks a sconce to test if it can be kicked.
The sconce melts.
In a good house, this would happen not.
Real estate agent.
Yes, well, let us see other rooms.
There is no other rooms.
So Ralph acts like a room.
The house hunters love the Ralph room
and live in him forever.
Okay, I want to live in Ralph.
Stop hitting dumps.
We're clapping.
I have a question.
Yeah.
I don't know if anyone knows the answer to this, but this is an ongoing thing of the
I fed blank into a computer and it did this.
What is that?
I think it's people making it up.
That's what I think.
It's possible.
Because I like to believe it's real though. Because I don't know. They say they made an AI software write something. I think even Thomas
Middleditch once like they created a short based off of an AI that had been fed like you know hundreds
of hours of sci-fi. And so I don't like what is like how do you feed something this stuff?
And then how does it spit out a script?
If this is me, Jimmy asked on the internet,
if you don't answer this, please tell me,
because I'm very curious.
Just like taking keywords from different things
that I've been doing.
But what is it into what?
I mean, the only example I can think of
is Watson by IBM.
Yeah, okay.
You know, something like that.
If I build your eyes.
Or something that can do some kind of neural net processing or some kind of
machine learning. God, I fucking hate that. But like with house hunters saying I made it watch,
like hours and hours, 1000 hours. How do you make an AI watch something? Did it say I made it
watch or it made it read? Watch transcripts. Watch. Okay, that's different. I don't know. But
I guess are there transcripts of house? You can make the content. I'm pulling out a string,
but I just I'm curious. What was that first, the first like talking bot on the internet, aim bot?
Or the smart thing I would answer you?
Yeah, it was just like an AI that you could message.
I know what you're talking about.
Yeah, on aim.
And I remember it was a big deal.
I forgot about that.
Yeah.
Everyone was like, oh my god, it's like talking with a robot.
I mean, that was a trend a while.
Yeah, I don't remember what it was called.
But it basically turned people.
Now we talk with robots all the time,
they won't stop calling us.
Yeah, but like at the time it was cool.
People would message to like Sarah or.
It just turns into a touring test
where you just try to see how you can get the AI
to fuck itself up.
Yeah, I have to pee.
Well, it's about time to wrap up. Yeah, I'm like up the name of this robot. We'll talk about play a little bit more. I'm going to play a little bit more.
I'm going to play a little bit more.
I'm going to play a little bit more.
I'm going to play a little bit more.
I'm going to play a little bit more.
I'm going to play a little bit more.
I'm going to play a little bit more.
I'm going to play a little bit more.
I'm going to play a little bit more.
I'm going to play a little bit more.
I'm going to play a little bit more. I'm going to play a little bit more. I'm going to play a little bit more. Do you like apples?
