Starting point is 00:02:32 Cool. Sorry, I have to spell it out for some people. Yeah, you do. Let's go! Let's go! Let's go Let's go Let's go Let's go
Starting point is 00:02:59 Let's go Let's go If I were you Tops? I don't think I ever said that Those words For them to sample my voice You think he created it? I think he did.
Starting point is 00:03:26 I mean, you could MIDI keyboard each vowel, each letter and kind of put it together. Yeah. You think he just made your voice out of songs? I'm on board for that, actually. Oh, you like that? I think he could use that to frame me in some way. Actually, that's a guy we've used before.
Starting point is 00:03:42 His name is Don Keanian. Remember that name? Oh, I do. Don Keanian back. Wants us to shout out his Squarespace site for his music and stuff, which is skyportmedia.biz. Huh. Easy to say, easy to remember, rolls off the tongue. Have you ever, Jeffrey James in the studio, I should say. Jeffrey James. Thanks for having me. Have you ever bought a domain name? Of course.
Starting point is 00:04:06 What do you got? Well, my current website is JeffreyJames.com was taken.com. Awful. Nice. I also own JeffreyJames.com. Yeah, but that just forwards you to JeffreyJames.com was taken.com. Yeah, look at that. JeffreyJames.com
Starting point is 00:04:22 was taken.com. By who? Oh, who's JeffreyJames.com? He's an English author, and he comes up first on any kind of search. You'll never get that back. Oh, yeah. Look at him. He's a wacky looking guy. All right.
Starting point is 00:04:34 What else you got? I think there was a short film that I did in high school called Check, Please. There was CheckPleaseFilm.com. I don't think I have it anymore. But for the time that it was going through festivals. It's still available then. Yeah. Now it'sfilm.com. I don't think I have it anymore, but for the time that it was going through festivals. It's still available then. Now it's available. Yeah, why don't you,
Starting point is 00:04:49 maybe that's your next Squarespace ad is checkpleasefilm. Because I have been phoning it in lately. Have you ever bought domain names? Did you ever get into that whole game? Yeah, but I mean, I don't remember any of the ones that I, Ewan Streeter bought Jew York Crimes, didn't you? Yeah, he bought that and forwarded it to New York Times. Let's see if it's still doing that.
Starting point is 00:05:08 What about Jew York Rhymes? No, it's no longer available. He must have let it expire. Wow. I went through a phase in high school where I was buying domain names, trying to sell them on the secondary market. How's that?
Starting point is 00:05:18 Very, very smart. Did you make money? What was the best one you had? I remember an embarrassing one that I had that I thought was really good, but nobody ever wanted it. I was like 17, so I was probably too smart to think that the domain name that I bought, finebanking.com,
Starting point is 00:05:33 and asking my parents for $70 to buy finebanking.com. The weirdest part was that it was F-I-E-N-N-E-S banking. Rafe Bank. Yes, just in case Rafe ever created anything. And then I'll just sell it to, like, Wells Fargo or some shit. Because their banking is fine. It's all right. Didn't you have a domain name called, like, iPhone Games or iPod Games?
Starting point is 00:05:58 Yeah, that was more than that. That was, like, an entire business, iPodArcade.com. Oh, yeah, that's right. Before iPods can play games, my buddy Amir Cohen and I bought iPodArcade.com and sold text games. Wait, did you develop games? Well, they were text games, so it was only trivia games. But then before you knew it, when people searched iPod games, ours was number one. So then when iPods got games, we were able to like monetize it that way.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Did you put ads on there? We put ads on it. And like we made like a couple hundred bucks, which was really exciting. We probably made like $10,000 over the course of a decade. That's insane. I went there. We don't even own the URL and there's a different website on it. iPodArcade.com is not ours.
Starting point is 00:06:43 It's been stolen from under our feet. I'm sorry to tell Amir Cohen the bad news. Oh yeah, I used to have that website called Roboboring. What's that? Roboboring? What's that? It was a Tumblr blog about robots. Of course. Did you
Starting point is 00:07:00 write entries about robots? I would draw little cartoons of robots and put it on there. Roboboring.com. Yeah. Gone now, huh? Gone forever. Fuck.
Starting point is 00:07:12 All our great domains. You know a domain name I bought like 10 years ago and I kept just because I think somebody will buy it? Notify.com. Oh, yeah. That's pretty good. Yeah, but with a D. Oh. Then that's bad. Remember when we went to... Oh, wait. You know what that is? This is my pitch for good. Yeah, but with a D. Oh. Then that's bad.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Remember when we went to... You know what that is? And this is my pitch for it. Yeah. Is anybody who has, you know, issues with their lymph nodes... Yeah. You know, a friendly... This is a doctor that'll tell you. Exactly right.
Starting point is 00:07:35 No, no, not even a doctor. It's like... Just a website. You have it. You just send it out. And like, it sends a, I guess, an email blast to all your friends and family, notifying them that you have, you know. Why do they need to know?
Starting point is 00:07:46 That you are sick? Yeah. You're right. It was a dumb idea. All right. You're not really quick to defend it, huh? I don't know. I don't even have the domain.
Starting point is 00:07:56 Fair. All right. This is not a domain name show, though it maybe could be. This is an advice show. If I were you, the only advice podcast on the internet hosted by me, Jake, and now Jeff. It's official. You're taking over for one of us
Starting point is 00:08:11 and we'll decide who it is by the end of this episode. God to the death. For who gets to leave. For this episode. For this episode. You host the podcast with a dead guy afterwards.
Starting point is 00:08:22 But you get to choose the dead guy. I don't. This is. How are you? How are you not taking this offer? I don't seemingly have a choice. I am holding a gun to you. All right.
Starting point is 00:08:35 So instead of emails for this episode, I tweeted. Anybody got a question for us? We're going to do lightning round. I got 160 replies. Wow. Can we go through them all? Probably not. We can try. Maybe we can go through them all? Probably not. We can try.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Maybe we can go through a shit ton of them, lightning round style, try to answer as many as possible. Does that sound good to you guys? Yes. All right. Does anything come off, pop out to you guys right off the bat? I've got a good one. It's, is it wise to un-ghost yourself after a ghosting?
Starting point is 00:09:04 Oh, wow. Come out of ghost return. Come back from the dead. So somebody's ghosted you and then you're like, by the way. No, no. You ghosted them. You ghost someone and they want to just pop back in. Oh, so you ghosted someone and then you want to bring them back into your life?
Starting point is 00:09:20 Yeah. You are the ghost and you come back from the dead. That person is going to have a real low self-esteem if they were ghosted and then down to give you another shot. Everybody has low self-esteem. I've done this before. None lower than me. That's really good, actually. I've done it.
Starting point is 00:09:37 You've ghosted someone for how long? Months. Month or two. And then you're like, hey, sorry about that. There's been a case where it was an entire year. Yeah, and you return with an apology. I think what helps is you have to see. I was in a coma.
Starting point is 00:09:53 From Notify. I was in a coma. I feel like that might be the only way to do it. Yeah. Cleanly. By the way, I think I was dead for a year. That's why I sort of ignored you for months at a time. Don't you feel bad about some of those texts I got?
Starting point is 00:10:13 No, you're the asshole. Do you remember you apologized with un-ghosting? I think what happened in my case was like I came, I saw them in real life or something, and then I followed up afterwards. Yeah. I don't think you can like go from straight ghosting texts to like talking on the same text thread. Yeah. Though I've also done that.
Starting point is 00:10:33 You see the, of course. You can do it on a different medium. You know, you like, you ghosted them over text, but you can slide into their DMs. And then you're like, I guess it depends on the context. If it was like someone you dated and actually ghosted versus like somebody you hung out with a few times and then you faded away.
Starting point is 00:10:49 There's different degrees of ghosting. I guess a straight, if you do full ghost, like out of nowhere, you're gone forever, then it's very, I don't know if you can really come back. But if you've done the patented Jake fade away.
Starting point is 00:11:02 Yeah, maybe you can fade back from away. I think you can fade back in. I was a serial ghoster for like two years. It was bad. You would just... It was a game to me. Cold turkey. No, but here's my thing.
Starting point is 00:11:15 That was a joke. But I did hurt some people. I hurt some people for sure and I won't apologize. But I think ghosting is a normal thing after three dates, right? Three dates, like two, three dates. You know, they get it.
Starting point is 00:11:31 Yeah, everyone speaks the language. But if you like were going, you know, two weeks, or not two weeks, a month, and you just dropped. Yeah. You don't have the right to ever talk to them again. Yeah, that's a little too much. I think it also depends on what you did, too, because you could... If you were having sex a lot,
Starting point is 00:11:48 it'd be awesome. But I think the more... Sorry, I'm at a chat room. The more sex you're having, the more unacceptable it is to ghost somebody. Absolutely. If you haven't had sex, ghosting is like...
Starting point is 00:12:01 That's like a fucking no-brainer to me. That's fine. That's good. It's good it's good get out while you still can they say alright we gotta go this is lightning round
Starting point is 00:12:10 we got a ghost nice oh yeah is quesadilla a sandwich writes Malachi Dempsey no good question absolutely not
Starting point is 00:12:19 yeah I would define sandwiches in between bread and a tortilla is they call it tortilla bread right it's a it's a wrap panini. I actually like that a lot.
Starting point is 00:12:30 It sounds like a sandwich to me. Huh? It's a Mexican grilled cheese. Here's a question. Is a grilled cheese a sandwich? Yes. Yeah. Is a turkey club a sandwich?
Starting point is 00:12:40 Yeah. Of course. Is a tuna sandwich a sandwich? Yes, these are all obviously... These are all saying sandwich. These are all... Hold on. Is a pasta a sandwich? No, pasta is not a sandwich. Okay. Is a tuna sandwich a sandwich? Yes, these are all obviously. You're all saying sandwich. Hold on. Is a pasta a sandwich?
Starting point is 00:12:46 No, pasta is not a sandwich. Okay. Is a rice a sandwich? One rice, one is a rice a sandwich. You're not smart enough to come up with a tricky one. I just think it's fun to ask people questions back when they ask me a question. For example, is this question a sandwich? No, right?
Starting point is 00:13:00 Obviously. Right? Because it's not food. I'll say it's not a sandwich. Yeah, it's not a sandwich, unfortunately. It's not going to be on the sandwich section of a menu. Jake, you got one? Which one of you has a more tan dick?
Starting point is 00:13:14 Obviously, Jeff. That's not a real. That one is. Are you shitting me? Orenthal J. Simpson. Yeah, that's definitely me. Orenthal Jake Hurwitz. Yeah, Jake wrote it.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Yep. Jeff, you got one? How does it feel like? Well, that's really good. I'm actually currently a little bit under the weather, so I can answer with that. I hate it. I know. Whenever Amir gets sick, it's like, you know how when you feel like you start to get a
Starting point is 00:13:39 cold and you sort of slide into illness over a week? Right. That's how I felt. But I get that for two weeks because when Amir's sick, I spend the whole entire week knowing that I'm going to get sick. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:51 And then the next week getting sick. Mine is a quick, it's a five day in and out. On Monday, I felt- Five day in and out. I have a fucking wedding to go to this weekend. I can't be ill. What do you want from me? I want you to be better.
Starting point is 00:14:03 I want you to take care of yourself. Wash your hands, drink enough fluid, get enough rest. Those are preventative. Never be sick. Yeah. Ever?
Starting point is 00:14:12 Ever. How's that sound? I get a cold once every two years. Yeah. I mean, I haven't had a cold in a bit, but you know, it's flu and cold season.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Yeah. Have you gotten a flu shot? Hmm? Flu shot? You don't need one if you don't get sick. No. Here's a question that I've often season. Yeah. Have you gotten a flu shot? Hmm? Flu shot? You don't need one if you don't get sick. No. Here's a question that I've often wondered. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:14:29 What's the best way to get out of awkward Uber slash Lyft conversations without being rude? Except not Uber because fuck Uber, says Marissa Rivera. How's the best way to get out of an Uber conversation? Yeah. You can do the fake phone call. I was going to say that. Fake phone call. But I'll actually call somebody, but then I'll pick up the phone like I picked it up, even though I called them.
Starting point is 00:14:50 I wonder if Uber and Lyft drivers see through that, even when it's fake. Because I've gotten real calls while I've been in a car before, too. But do you think they're just like, oh, fuck this guy. I don't have to talk to him. He's just ducking me i think if if they really start an in-depth conversation they don't pick up on social cues anyways because i would say the vast majority of people don't want to talk to their driver here's another question for you that this one uh stems from of the times that you've like your uber or lyft driver has forced you into a conversation where you like couldn't
Starting point is 00:15:23 back out of how often have you totally regretted having the conversation? Cause there've been a plenty of times for me where I didn't want to talk to somebody and then I end up talking to them for half an hour. And by the end I'm like, I really liked that person. That was great. For me, that's only happened once.
Starting point is 00:15:39 Every other time it's been like, that was a waste of energy and breath. Interesting. Yeah. But I talked to this one guy on my way to Wolf Down. Have you guys been yet? Oh, no, I haven't. On Rowena, right?
Starting point is 00:15:49 Really good. Oh, wait. Yes, I... No, I haven't. It's also a very like fall place. Yeah, that's true. Maybe once I get really sick, I can go there and sneeze into a soup. Continue?
Starting point is 00:16:00 Screw you, man. I don't think I want to. I'm just saying... You've ruined Wolf Down. Maybe I'll get a potato leak and I'll blow my nose into it potato bisque so we say
Starting point is 00:16:10 fake a phone call or or actually talk to them cause well it's different for girls cause it definitely sucks a lot more yeah David
Starting point is 00:16:18 Alien John writes when will you return to the Irvine improv and I just thought that was interesting because were you not at her? I was at that show.
Starting point is 00:16:27 That was crazy. You know who went with me? Was Rob, who interned here. Oh, really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. Because I didn't know. I mean, that was like my first month in LA, so I didn't have any friends, really.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Not that I'm not friends with Rob, but I was just like, you want to just go to this comedy show? You drove all the way to Irvine. We took the train from Union, I think, or something. Oh, nice. Yeah. friends with Rob, but I was just like, you want to just go to this comedy show? You drove all the way to Irvine. We took the train from Union, I think, or something. Oh, nice. Yeah. It's a great way to see the South LA. Any plans for a Pittsburgh visit, writes Brady Winner.
Starting point is 00:17:01 Any plans for a Pittsburgh visit? Not in the immediate future. But we have never been to Pittsburgh, and I would like to go. I want to do the whole Steel Town tour. Yeah, I'm trying to get these guys to come to Cleveland. There's one guy who follows me on Twitter who always favorites my tweets, and I just see he has the Indians logo. I think his name is Eddie Stahl.
Starting point is 00:17:20 Shout out, Eddie Stahl. All right, Eddie. Trying to get these guys to come to Cleveland. Is Cleveland part of the Rust Belt? Yeah. That's like a sad name for it. Because it's like defunct factories and stuff. That's why they call it the Rust Belt. We're like coming out of a depression, I guess. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:33 Like in the past five years. Because of LeBron. Yeah. So what happens when he leaves? I think... I don't know. I don't want to think about that. The Indians are doing well, so we'll have them. The Windians! Well, if they don't win tonight, we're out to think about that. The Indians are doing well, so we'll have them. The Windians. Well, if they don't win tonight,
Starting point is 00:17:46 we're out. Oh, right. Oh, right. It's Indians against Yankees. That's your team. That's right.

Starting point is 00:18:04 whoever, what's the best? whoever gets to take one now. Oh, five bucks? That's not bad. Anything else you guys find? I have one. What is the most attractive and least attractive name? Ooh. The answer to both is Anya.
Starting point is 00:18:23 You're right. I think a really attractive name is like, I was just thinking about this, like Bianca. That's good. I think a really attractive name is like a really delicious fruit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Strawberry? No, like- Durian. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:45 Berry. Like. Berry. Like Barry Obama or like- Or banana. Nothing's hotter than a banana and nothing's uglier than a broccolini. Hi, I'm Broccoli Rob. Broccolini Rob. Broccolini Cobb. Hi, Cobb.
Starting point is 00:19:07 How come I can't open jars the first time? Because you're weak. Asshole. Do you watch Curb? Do you see the last episode where he's like, everyone wants to be the pickle hero? Is that this new season? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:19 I haven't seen it yet. Whenever someone can't open a jar, everyone's like, I can open it. Let me open it. And then there's the whole like, oh, I loosened it for you. I think the hand made it like more malleable trick is to lock your wrist so you're not turning it with your hand like you're turning it with like your arm yeah there's a great it's great to like really go like a hundred percent and then get it at the end
Starting point is 00:19:39 but it's really sad to go a hundred percent and then like still not be able to do it yeah i've never that's never happened to me oh really never that's really sad to go 100% and still not be able to do it. Yeah. That's never happened to me. Oh, really? Never. That's really cool. That's awesome, right? It's not true, but it's still pretty fucking cool. I don't know how to add to that.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Even if it's like a greasy little ketchup top and my hands are wet, I can still fucking pop. Hottest fan encounter? Oh, hottest fan encounter. There was that hot fan. I said hottest fan encounter oh hottest fan encounter there was that hot i said oddest the dockerty oh you're in full mask you're fully erect how is this okay oddest uh the two twins in london yeah we got we got followed around for a little bit by the two twins they were i thought it was just so funny because it seemed like, I mean, they were drunk, which is fine,
Starting point is 00:20:29 but we were all drinking with all of our friends in this bar, and some of the people from the show had come up to the bar, and these two British twins were acting like they were the only twins in the entire world, and they kept on coming up to us and being like hey twins yeah yeah look yeah two of you twins as if they we don't have twins as if we don't have a podcast on this network yeah i guess that is you guys are twins but we've seen it before it's not super original. It's hard to talk about odd fan encounters
Starting point is 00:21:05 because odds are all those people are still listening to the show. Of course. But I mean, there have been like, I guess odd is different than... I guess I didn't mean like that the fans were odd, but like the oddest circumstance. Like weirdest place that you have been recognized.
Starting point is 00:21:20 It's happened to me twice where I got, where I was recognized by like a big fan on an airplane and then I sat next to them for the entire flight. Yeah. Which is like one of the times I made great friends with the people, and we went and did a show at Yale, and we saw them. Oh, yeah. But then there are other times where you have to – I don't know. I do embarrassing shit on planes.
Starting point is 00:21:43 Yeah. you like have I don't know I do embarrassing shit on planes so like I could like the person a lot but like I want to stuff my face with a sandwich and watch a shitty movie but also like you lose your anonymity in a sense
Starting point is 00:21:52 where it's like that you know that person knows you and it just kind of makes like then you can't be yourself necessarily so I'm like I'm thinking
Starting point is 00:21:58 yeah you know don't meet your heroes or something like I sat next to Jake on a plane and he was farting and picking his nose the entire time yeah just want to be me just me being me you want me to tone it down you know that's what eminem said you know right go ahead sorry okay uh dylan avent avnet writes they had
Starting point is 00:22:19 made a movie slash television show about you guys what actors would you choose to play each other? Ooh. Say it again? What actors would play you in a movie? You would choose me and Jeff, and then I would choose Jeff and you. And then Jeff would try to do a standing backflip in that corner. Why do I have to do that?
Starting point is 00:22:37 I don't know. I'm just reading the questions, man. That's all in that tweet? Not the subtext. So you would be played by Mick Lovin. Christopher Mintz-Plasse. Christopher Mintz-Plasse.
Starting point is 00:22:52 And Jeff would be played by... Who do you look like? People tell me I look like that guy from the OA, but I don't know if he has the range. You think he...
Starting point is 00:23:05 The one doubt you have is that he's not good enough of an actor. That's exactly right. I think Jeff would be... What's the guy's name from... The Indian guy from Big Bang Theory? No, Ripley's Believe It or Not. Oh, Dean Cain. Oh, that's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:23:21 A young Dean Cain. I know who that is. You don't know who Dean Cain is? No. Dean Cain is You don't know who Dean Cain is? No. Dean Cain is a great reference. Yeah. Let me see. A Dean Cain.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Yeah, or like a Mario Lopez. Yeah. Jesus. Let me see Dean Cain. You gotta do young Dean Cain, though. My nickname in my fraternity was Russell Peters. Russell Peters. Yeah, he's like a Canadian comic.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Oh, yeah. But that's just because it was like the only brown stand-up that people knew. Yeah, I can see that. Jesus Christ. No, of course not. That looks like Jeff from the eyebrows down. And for you, I would choose none other than America's sweetheart, Shelley Duvall. Who's that?
Starting point is 00:24:06 You're ravishing. Thank you. You're absolutely ravishing. Insane. No, I think you look like The Mentalist. Who's that guy? Oh. Simon?
Starting point is 00:24:19 No. Is it? I know who you're talking about because people have said that to me before. Yeah, fuck. What was his name? The Mentalist. Do you know who I'm talking about? No. It's not Scott Speedman, is it? I know who you're talking about because people have said that to me before. Yeah, fuck. What was his name? The Mentalist. Do you know who I'm talking about?
Starting point is 00:24:27 No. It's not Scott Speedman, is it? No. Oh, Simon Baker. Let me see him. That's Simon Baker. Yeah. Yeah. I would maybe do Jake Gyllenhaal for Jake.
Starting point is 00:24:38 Jake Gyllenhaal? Yeah. Because I have the name Jake and I'm hot. Mostly that. No, it's just like the beard growth patterns in the eyes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:46 And then a mirror. Jake Gyllenhaal's brown hair and a beard. You've never seen an actor dye their hair? He's never shaved their... Well, he will go blonde for this role. You look like Marty. I'm serious. This guy fucking looks like Marty Michael.
Starting point is 00:25:03 And Marty was born first, so you know Jake copied. Actually, Jake Gyllenhaal can be like, if me and Jake had a hot son, this is what would come out. That doesn't even look like him. You don't think Jake Gyllenhaal- That doesn't look like Jake at all. That doesn't look like Jake Gyllenhaal at all. The Jake Gyllenhaal I know looks exactly like Jake. Okay, so you don't know the right one.

Starting point is 00:26:06 oh you know you would never do it again yeah i had an amazing time i recommend everyone does it once but i did that when i was like in my mid or early 20s yeah and now i'm afraid i've grown fearful in my old you've done more you've accomplished more and now you could like if you did now i can lose it all i That's fair. I don't know. I sometimes think about like, I can't believe that I jumped out of a plane. Yeah. And I wouldn't, I couldn't imagine doing it again. Sometimes I just lie awake at night thinking like, that was cool.
Starting point is 00:26:35 Did you do it? No. I do it often. Yeah. I often think how cool I am. Jeff actually lies awake thinking about you skydiving. Yeah. And how cool I am.

Starting point is 00:27:00 The all-nighters stand out where we stayed up all night making videos. Yeah. Do you remember that time? This just reminds me of it. When Josh, our bosses, Josh and Ricky, had a $100 gift certificate to Nobu. Yeah. Like a really fancy sushi place. And they said they were going to give it to the person who stayed in the office the longest.
Starting point is 00:27:20 That's so funny. And me and Amanda, Iowa, and Chris Collins all stayed in the office for four straight days. And then I think in the end, me and Amanda held hands and walked outside at the same time. And we split the gift certificate, but we've still never, ever gone to notebook. That's so funny. So did you know that that was the challenge or you got to work that day? I got to work that day.
Starting point is 00:27:47 So you weren't prepared for it. I was actually uniquely prepared because I think I had like... Because I can hold my breath. I had come in from visiting my girlfriend at college or something. So I had a backpack. I had like all my stuff.
Starting point is 00:28:02 Oh, interesting. Jeff, do you have a favorite college humor memory? I didn't work there. Oh, I guess not. Loser. We rule. Let's take a break. We'll come back with more questions and answers.

Starting point is 00:28:32 And the best part of football season is checking out the post-game stats. I want to know which wideout scored more than two tutties, which QB threw for less than 350 yards, and if you think you can pick who will do what before the kickoff, then you should play pick six from DraftKings, which is an official daily fantasy partner of the NFL.

Squarespace is my all-in-one, first stop, one-stop shop. Yeah. It's kind of funny that they have also award-winning customer support because it's so intuitive that even Jake was able to figure it out. But if you have any questions, they can figure it out for you as well. Exactly. And I did need a lot of help.
Starting point is 00:31:33 I needed a lot of help. It's easy for everybody, but I still like to have my hand held. They even have AI at this point. You can update written content, product description, or email with Squarespace AI. You can even buy a domain name through Squarespace. Exactly. Like, you know that movie Freaky Friday? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:32:56 And we've returned. Jeff, are you any closer to making your own podcast? I feel like the people are in need of it at this point. I really am interested. I just don't, it has to be a self-sustaining idea. This is something that I've said again, open to pitches. Yeah. And the one pitch that I got from the last time I was, I was pretty good. Oh, well, what's that? It was like, pitch fake movie. I think it's something along the lines where you have guests on and you pitch fake movie ideas, cast, and then do improvised scenes or something but i feel like i don't know
Starting point is 00:33:26 something in that something that like people who don't know me would still enjoy the show because i feel like not enough people know who i am for it to just be like oh like jeffrey james's podcast well all our listeners know who you are now if you're listening to this podcast i love that by the way uh would so would you like take pitches like synopsis like a logline fan submitted fan submits a log title or or logline i feel like yeah or log lines it would have to just be like a fan submits a a brief synopsis yeah maybe like you set the character limit right yeah because part of the fun is going to be coming up with the log line, coming up with the title, coming up with the cast, the trailer, and then the scenes. But that's like, there's so much improvising and, uh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:11 What if they can just provide you with one of them and then you'd have to extrapolate based on there. So like I would provide you a punny title. Somebody else might provide you a premise. Somebody else might just provide you with the cast. Like I'll say Rob Schneider and... And then I have to get Schneider in the room. That's right.
Starting point is 00:34:28 Oh, that's very hard to sustain. Of course. You want to get all the cast in the room? It's tri-monthly released. And you want to write the movie? That's every three months. It's not three times a month? No.
Starting point is 00:34:39 That's thrice monthly. No, not in this case. And that's the name of the show. Thrice monthly? Yep. A bi-monthly podcast starring Jeff Monthly. No, not in this case. And that's the name of the show. Thrice Monthly? Yep. A bi-monthly podcast starring Jeff Monthly? Your last name is Monthly. M-U-N.

Starting point is 00:38:15 I thought you just shoved the quote in the wall and it became... No, like you faxed your furnace and it can just diagnose the problem. As long as we have the quote.
Starting point is 00:38:23 If only. Actually, speaking of faxes, did you guys read the one about having a fax coming out of your asshole? Yeah, I did. Wait, it was Oh, here we go. No. Charlotte Garza writes, would you guys rather be able to carbonate anything with your fingertip or be able to use your butt as a fax machine?

Starting point is 00:38:56 no I don't shove it in it's a fax well you put things into the fax too have you ever seen how a fax works so Jake's in the corner like fucking sticking his dirty ass

Starting point is 00:45:12 but rare. So like, you can get rid of nachos and then have like a quesadilla. No, you can't. Scratch that itch. Yeah, you can. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:45:20 You're forgoing melted cheese. A quesadilla is a salad. At all? You can't have any of the ingredients. That's not, fine, then I could have a poke bowl because that's technically... Oh, really? Yes.
Starting point is 00:45:29 All right. Just thought I don't really like fucking... So I could have sashimi and not sushi. No. What do you mean no? Sashimi is sushi. Poke is poke. You'll never see poke at Koi.

It's not just about cooling it anymore i'm gonna say one more cool no because you i gotta knock it off i see that says jc penny that's it uh jeff you got one uh yeah what's what aspect of running a podcast network is the most unfun and why oh it's It's probably like a business. Choosing the health insurance.
Starting point is 00:47:06 Yeah, probably taxes. Oh, yeah, taxes. That's the worst one. Taxes. Oh, working with Whitney. Oh, that's pretty bad. I didn't think about that. But I think taxes might even be worse than that.

Starting point is 00:47:43 especially the one that's coming out, I guess it will be out when this is out, the wake video. The wake video. It's just fun to see. That was really fun to shoot. We were just singing for an afternoon. Yeah. Which you'd been pressing me also to do.
Starting point is 00:47:58 Like, we've got to do an original song. I want to do an original song. I want to do a parody song. Yeah. Here's one that actually reminds me of a question that I can ask you guys. this one just says would you ever consider being the lead in a movie so i'm going to make that more specific jordan quincy what if jj abrams who made the new star wars movie is like i want you to play the male lead of the new star wars movie knowing full well you probably wouldn't be that good, would you still do it?
Starting point is 00:48:29 I'd love to see either of you guys as the male lead. Either of you holding a lightsaber is the funniest thing to me. Yeah. Would you be too scared to ruin the movie? No, I'd do it in a heartbeat. You'd say yeah. Yeah. Not even, you don't care.
Starting point is 00:48:42 You don't care. Well, I would kill it. What if he offered you the female lead? And I had to be in drag the whole time? No, you just have to wear a wig. Well, and a dress or something? Yeah, a dress. What do you think drag is?
Starting point is 00:48:58 Makeup. Fair. Well, you have to be in makeup if you're a guy in the movie, too. That's true. I guess I would have more concerns because that's sort of a problem in Hollywood that roles for people go to people that are unqualified. Yeah. But if there's like a white boy lead and they give it to me and I would take it. But if it's like, Jake, you have to play a woman, I'd be like, why don't you cast a woman? And then they'd be like, we want you instead. I guess I'd be like why don't you cast a woman and then he'd be like we want you instead
Starting point is 00:49:25 I guess I'd be like talk to my reps oh my god you want to take you you're what's wrong with Hollywood I wouldn't do it I would take a character role you wouldn't take the lead I would take the funny man that has like four scenes that's not being offered to you then I'm out JJ
Starting point is 00:49:41 you're out as the lead I'm out you're saying no thanks to the john boriega character in the last star wars movie no way i do justice no way i want that cash i want to earn my money let's play around on set all day and then somehow get paid yeah i'd be too afraid that like that would be it i would be like the guy from the room where it's like, who is this asshole? Why is he in this movie? He's ruining Star Wars. Well, just look at what they would... Hayden Christensen,
Starting point is 00:50:09 people hated in like the original... Or in the sequels. Yeah. The prequels. And he was probably better than I can do. But it helps. Well, I guess... And now he'll never work in this town again.
Starting point is 00:50:20 He doesn't have to. He's in fucking Star Wars. I would definitely do it. All right. You guys got a few last questions? We're almost out of time. Yeah. Ooh, Claire Thomas says, I'm planning a solo vacation.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Where should I go? How about Loserville? Because that's the only fucking place that would take you. If you don't have a friend to... Sorry. I'd hate to cut you off before you guys leave. Yeah, it's just that you checked in. You went to a spa the other week in Santa Fe.
Starting point is 00:50:47 Of course. You went to Truth or Consequences New Mexico. Oh, I don't have a... You did a sweat lodge. Yeah, for a week. That's a long time. Not like a vacation. That is, yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:50:59 Where would you go on a solo journey? Do you want to go to the middle of nowhere because you're by yourself or do you want to surround yourself by a lot of people because you're by yourself? That's a good question. Would you rather go to Yosemite or Tokyo? Between those two,
Starting point is 00:51:11 I'd rather go to Yosemite. But if it was like Yosemite or like... Nashville? Yeah. I mean, I don't think she's in Nashville. It depends if it's international or not. I think if it's international, I would go to a European city.
Starting point is 00:51:24 Probably it's one that speaks English though. Yeah. Like I would go to a European city. Probably it's one that speaks English, though. Yeah. Like, I would go to Copenhagen or something. Oh, you'd go to Denmark. Yeah. Scandinavia or something. Yeah, Scandinavia would be really cool. And then in America, in America.
Starting point is 00:51:40 If you want to, like, go in America, you might as well go to Canada. Montreal. I'm sorry Montreal's cool I went to Chicago by myself once that was pretty fun why? I was driving across
Starting point is 00:51:52 the country by myself and you stopped which is another thing I'd recommend that's a good move for a solo trip I think really?
Starting point is 00:51:59 drive across the country by yourself I feel like that would get really sad I mean it had it's highs and lows but but its highs were really high. Like I hiked Arches National Park by myself at sunset. It was like a religious experience.
Starting point is 00:52:12 It was great. But then also I drove through Nebraska for nine straight hours, and it was kind of sad. But then you got to have the peaks and the valleys. Do you have a last question? Any good ones? I got one that we might, that might be a good last one.
Starting point is 00:52:27 Go for it. Let me find who wrote it. Okay, here we go. Freddie Hodkin writes our final question. What is the best snack? Nuts. It's gotta be nuts. N nuts is the worst snack what are you talking about they're dry natural little nuggets i don't want to uh you said natural you said natural like being natural the worst part about nuts is that they're natural yeah the best snack is made in a factory whose job it is to create the best taste. Cheetos.
Starting point is 00:53:06 That's what you say, huh? Goldfish. You fucking loser. By the way, you're like... A raw cashew. Your favorite snack is wheat thimbs. By the way, if somebody gave the factory that made the best fucking taste in all the world made a cracker that basically tastes like
Starting point is 00:53:22 a nut, it's essentially less healthy. If somebody gave your best snack in the world for Halloween, they'd be a social pariah. They'd be, do not go to that house. That house gives nuts. We have different qualifications for this question, clearly, because I was taking health into account. I wasn't just taking into account taste.
Starting point is 00:53:39 It doesn't say what's the healthiest snack. Well, best to me is one that's not going to kill my ass. It's not going to kill you to have a few chips. Good. Anyway, thoughts? Jeff? I was going to say hummus and pita chips. Jeff's right.
Starting point is 00:53:54 That's an answer I can set my watch to. Hummus and pita chips is good. Yeah. Yeah. Or even just pita. That's nice. But ideally chip, pita chips. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Stacy's maybe. Yes, yes. which is also the best hangover cure i like i actually like uh not hangover pita bread and night of hangover yeah if we're going specific i really like the air ritz the air ritz crackers there's like a baked ritz crackers they taste. They taste like Ritz, but they're baked, so they're crispy and salty. Interesting. If we're going just general, like whatever, I'll say like barbecue potato chips, because I think those are really good. I like more of like a meat and cheese plate or something. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:36 Oh, like a churrito with some cheese and crackers. A prosciutto. Wrapped in melon. No melon for me. I'd be eating ham. No melon. Wrapped in papaya I would like
Starting point is 00:54:46 a big old plate filled with like it's got turkey it's got prosciutto it's got ham it's got salami it's got pepperoni and it's got a couple
Starting point is 00:54:54 different artisanal cheeses of course you have a meat you don't have to you don't have to specify the cheese no no no what's it served on
Starting point is 00:55:02 is it a serving board or it's a serving platter you already said it's half let me served on? Is it a serving board? It's a serving platter. You already said that. Let me finish. Fucker. It's a serving board is what I was going to say. What meats would be on it, though?
Starting point is 00:55:12 It doesn't matter. He asked me about the meats. Which meats is all? Turkey, ham, salami. Got it. Turkey. You already said that. Pastrami.
Starting point is 00:55:20 Just in terms of the cheeses. There's no pastrami. They're artisanal cheese. What does it matter? And it's goat cheese. It's brie. It's an aged cheddar. It's an Asiago.
Starting point is 00:55:31 Okay. A Gruyere. Awesome. And it's served on. He already said it's a board. I didn't describe what kind of board it was. Because it's sort of like a live edge wood. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:43 A wood cutting board with a stone. What's the best snack? What is the snack? Oh, it's meat and cheese. Oh. Yeah. Okay. Do you know what kind of meat?
Starting point is 00:55:51 Which kinds of meats are on there? Someone's looking at their phone right now and sees this podcast is nine hours long. Like, wait a second. They're in the middle of Nebraska. They don't give a shit. I would agree with that. Either hummus and pita chips or cheese and pleat meat. Pleat meat?
Starting point is 00:56:06 Hmm? Hmm? Pleat meat. Yeah. All right. We're done. Thanks. Thanks for asking the questions, everybody on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:56:13 Thanks to Jeff for joining us in the studio. Thanks for having me. We might have set a record at this one. The opening theme song was written by Don Keanian. Closing one was written by Kenya Kenye. This guy gave instructions on how to pronounce his name and I couldn't even follow them. It was like...
Starting point is 00:56:30 He spelled it in K-E-N-Y slash K-E-N-Y-A. That was what he said. Kenya. Pronounced Kenya because English speakers often pronounce the N-Y like N-Yah like N-Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:46 So I don't know what you want me to say, man. His Twitter is Kendrick Jean. So that's what I'll say. Hashtag boycott bread lounge. One more plug. Ran Zyman. His name is Ran, right? Name is Ran Zyman.

But let's just say that your girl just left you, but you're broke down so damn far from the best you. And the need to laugh is so far away. Play the cast off your ass, I will fall away.
