Price and participation may vary for a limited time
only there may be a podcast or two in my life but there is only one that can still make me smile Do you know who that was?
No, but it was beautiful.
Haunting.
We've used this person's song before.
Oh.
Dating back to years and years ago, to the College Humor Days.
The College Humor Days?
Yeah.
It was not Julia Nunes.
No.
That's the...
College... Who?
We used this person slash band in our announcement saying Jake and Amir was ending.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, fuck me.
Yes, I do know.
Wait, what is her name?
6C Band.
Audrey Scott.
Audrey Scott, yes.
So she emailed us saying that they have a music video coming out in January,
and this was a 30-second ditty for us.
So Audrey Scott from the band 6C,
who's been making music for us for 5, 10, 30 years at this point.
She opened for us in South by Southwest in Austin.
That's right.
So she's back.
Thank you, Audrey.
Thank you for submitting that theme song.
It's cool to have somebody who's as good at singing as I am.
Well, she's better.
Like putting it into.
She's better than you at singing.
You're not even a good singer at all.
I don't sing.
Like, I don't sing.
So.
Right.
You don't sing and she does.
So for you to say it's cool.
I was like, yeah.
So it's in me to do this but I'm so busy with
better shit
comedy shit
so now
your compliment
has turned into
an insult
I'm just saying
because you said
that you could be a better singer
if you put any
modicum of effort into it
every singer out there
better think they're lucky stars
that I'm not like
devoting my shit
to that shit
just like your raw
unshaped talent
I will
I will like
I won't judge it.
Like not even warmed up.
I know you're not warmed up.
I know you have no training.
And it's also in the morning.
But you've also,
usually I would, yeah.
It's the morning.
And my vocal cords are like fucked.
Sorry, excuse me.
But you said that you could,
I could try.
Any amount of like effort or training,
you would be a better singer than them.
So let's just see like raw what you're working with.
It sounds like you're losing your voice just by clearing your throat.
Because I don't usually clear it this early in the morning, but I can give it a run.
All right, ready?
Yeah.
What song?
Are you sick?
What happened?
No, I'm not sick.
It's just the idea of performing.
Somewhere Over the Rainbow.
That's an easy one.
Somewhere.
How does it go?
Somewhere Over the Rainbow.
It starts, the title is also the first part of the song.
You're sucking into, oh my God.
I honestly didn't know it could be this bad.
Where the rainbow.
And you say that you could be as good or better than Audrey Scott.
I have stage fright.
So like performing for you today.
This isn't stage.
In this way.
For you to put me on the spot
isn't fair.
We're alone in a room
where we have recorded
hundreds of podcasts.
This is the place
where you should be
the most comfortable.
Okay.
How about this?
Try to sing as well as you can.
Can you be this vulnerable?
You sing as actually as well.
Not even make a joke.
Like actually sing as good as you can.
We always like joke around.
Ha ha, it's funny.
I'm either really good or really bad.
But I want you to actually legit try to sing as good as you can and see how you do.
I feel a little too uncomfortable, but only because I have a cold.
Next week when we record, I
will try to sing as well as I can.
Yeah. Okay.
I promise.
So why is that like, it's so hard to do that.
Yeah. Like you almost want to like, as a joke, break into a song and have somebody be like,
whoa, you're actually a good singer.
Yeah.
Like that's the ideal.
Or to do it like fake bad because we're bad. Right. So you
either do it fake bad or joke good. But you, there's never a world. Where I'm trying as hard
as I can to sing well. Yeah. I guess even if you tried really hard right now and you sang pretty
well, I would feel bad for you. Just for putting yourself out there. Well, that's why I'm forcing you to do it so that you can't.
What song do you think I should try to sing?
What's the song?
Oh, Stars Shining Right Above You.
That song.
Dream a little dream of me.
I don't know that one.
Okay, how about...
I need something in my range.
It's not Lopethe!
He said, she said bullshit! Oh, you want to do like pop punk. That's not the fact that he said, she said bullshit.
Oh, you want to do like pop punk.
That's not pop punk.
That's dirt.
Yeah, that's rap rock.
That's rap rock.
Okay, sorry.
What about.
Keep rolling, rolling, rolling.
What's a good song for you to try to sing as well as possible?
That's like an actual song.
I'm trying to think of like an Oli.
What about Stand By Me?
But that's not really my range.
Like, I feel like
Aladdin is,
that's my range.
Can You Feel the Love Tonight?
That's, I don't think,
no, that's,
it's too high.
Aladdin, what song?
Like,
I Can Show You the World.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
You can do the Aladdin part of I can show you the world oh really yeah you can do the aladdin part of i can show you the
world i think so remember is that i don't think that episode came out yet but i sing that song
yeah i think it's episode eight where you where you try to sing You sing, I can show you the man in the sky and you're singing.
Oh, man.
Yeah, check out season two of Lonely and Horny.
It's out now.
Dropout.tv.
Slash Lonely and Horny.
That's right.
So they know we sent you.
Yeah, that's how we get credit for it.
All right, this is If I Were You, the only advice podcast on the internet that I'm hosting right now.
I'm Amir.
I'm Jake.
Our goal here is to answer as many questions as possible.
People emailing us in at ifirewshow at gmail.com, they're in a difficult place in their life.
They need our wisdom, our guidance.
Sometimes we curate the best questions we can find. And other times we play a game to find...
Oh!
What happened?
Did you say game?
Yeah.
Oh!
I was just explaining the rules. Yes.
Oh!
Sometimes we play a game where we search through the thousands of emails we have in our Gmail.
Oh!
We search a word and the goal of the game,
the way to win, is to find an email
that's using a word
that's only been used once
in our show's history.
I am the Game Boy!
And this is my game!
When we play this game,
for whatever reason, a
mascot shows up who's
either about to
ejaculate or kind of is stubbing his toe.
Is ejaculating.
Yeah.
Yeah, got it.
Oh.
And he only arrives when we're playing this game.
So Game Boy, can you start us off by suggesting a word that's only been used once in a question?
Digital.
Digital.
I'm going to guess that's been used more than once, but I just feel like I'll like the question.
Okay.
Yeah, it's been used more than once, and of course in a lot of spam email.
Right.
But let me try to find an email that has yet to be opened.
Oh, man.
This is just, a lot of people are just asking us for jobs, of course.
Oh, yeah.
Digital marketing intern.
That's right.
That was definitely like...
That's right.
A thing.
That's right.
Okay.
Give me another word.
You really don't like digital, huh?
All right.
I got one.
Okay.
This is an email we've never read from a lady.'ll call, what's a digital name for a woman?
Like Siri.
We'll call this lady Siri.
Big fan of your podcasting work.
Basically, since graduating uni two and a half years ago, I've worked in media, communications, and done several internships.
I lived in Boston doing more internships and completed a digital marketing diploma, temp work, and now I have no idea what to do.
I don't really feel like I'm qualified for any job.
I have an art history degree, and nothing I've done so far interests me enough to stick with it.
Now I'm back from the U.S. living with my mom in her house and applying for a variety of jobs every day. I've had zero luck. My confidence is at an all-time low and I
don't know how to talk to anyone about how I'm feeling for fear that I'll be tainted, a moany
cow, or seen as throwing myself a big old-fashioned pity party. I know I've been so lucky to have
experienced university, to have had the jobs that I've had,
but I've been unemployed for five months now and I'm losing my mind.
Do you have any tips on how to be confident when you're down on your luck?
Any advice for people who feel totally lost career-wise?
Will I ever find my talent slash calling?
What are your best job hunting slash CV pointers?
Feel free to tell me.
I need a kick up in the backside.
Should I just try something I'll know I'll be bored at and suck it up? So this is like a general question we get a lot,
which is like, I'm stuck in a situation
um we don't really usually choose these emails but since the game boy has led us here maybe we
can give some general advice that's actually true we get a lot of people saying that they feel stuck
in their job and they don't know what to do and i think that's because we clearly like our jobs
and they want to know how to do that as well.
How to do that.
Well, fortunately, you're young and hip because you have a digital marketing diploma.
So there will always be old curmudgeonly companies who are like, how do we do this Twitter thing?
How do we do Facebook?
What's Instagram?
We need someone with a digital marketing diploma.
Right. Facebook, what's Instagram? We need someone with a digital marketing diploma. Right, but do you want to work for a bunch of old farts
who don't know what that shit is?
Or would you rather work with young people
who know they need that stuff
and who will help you get better at it?
Maybe the first one will help you get to the second.
So you work for the old curmudgeonly company
that doesn't know what they're doing,
and then it's like, hey, look,
I have one or two years of experience in this field. And when a startup
is coming, they're looking for someone with experience and you've done it in that. Right.
Or you could do the opposite where you get a sort of a low paying, but like equity job type thing
at a startup. Yeah. They eventually get bought or fold or whatever, but then you've had like
real experience working with smart people.
And then you can,
then you can ask for a,
like a big salary at some shitty corporation where you'll,
you might not like the people,
but you'll be making bank.
Yeah.
Digital marketing is still like as relevant as it was five,
six,
seven years ago.
I remember like,
it was like a hot job when Twitter and Instagram and all and Facebook was
starting out.
But everybody needs that.
That's how people are still being reached.
Dave Rosenberg got his job at College Humor through that.
Yeah, that's true.
And then he's been hopping around because everybody needs that.
He was working at Funny or Die because they also needed digital marketing.
Now, is that where? MoviePass?
MoviePass.
They also need it.
Every company needs some sort of digital marketing something.
So you're in the right area.
As to how to advice for people who feel totally lost career-wise, it seems like you either have to find a job in the thing that you're passionate about or find a job doing something like retail that you're not necessarily passionate about and do something on the side that you are passionate about. Yeah. Passionate about the hobby. Hobby turns to jobby. The jobby hobby.
Yeah. Which we both worked at College Humor for free in some capacity before they paid us.
Yeah. But I think that's definitely an older thing because now working for free is bad.
Intern-wise. Yeah. Corporations get in trouble for doing that to people.
Yeah, but it still happens.
Yeah, it does.
So there will be a situation where you can probably do what you love to do for free.
That's like you hustling on the nights and weekends, whether it's freelance writing or—
Stand-up comedy.
Yeah. the nights and weekends, whether it's freelance writing or stand-up comedy.
Find that thing that you're passionate about and do that on the side while you're still making a career doing something else.
Like you said, working in retail or at a shop.
And then eventually, if you're good at what you're doing on the side and you hone your
practice and you become better and better, somebody will recognize it enough to pay you.
And for you working in retail at a shop,
maybe if you like the shop,
you can transition to doing digital marketing for the shop.
I skipped over the beginning where she said
she's a 24-year-old gal from Ireland.
Oi.
Oi.
Oi, Peter.
What?
Sir, sir, sir, Peter.
What's that? That's my Irish accent. And what are you saying? Sir, sir, sir, Peter. What? Arsh-a-marsh-a-Peter. Oh, what's that?
Ah, that's my Irish accent.
And what are you saying?
Arsh-a-marsh-a-Peter.
Oh, Peter.
So you're saying Arsh-a-marsh-a.
Arsh-a-marsh-a-Peter.
Peter.
Peter.
And then I say, oh, Peter.
Yeah.
Peter.
So you're saying nothing, just gibberish.
Just Peter.
Yeah, just Peter.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's good.
So there's always that.
And then, you know, you're living with your mom.
You're fortunate enough to not have to pay for a job, for a place to live right now.
That's true.
So you can sort of do, you have a little more leniency.
It's not like you have to take the worst job ever just to make ends meet because you're saving some cash living with your mom.
But maybe you take the easy job, the sales retail job,
because you say you're not going to have a problem finding that.
You build up a little nest egg because you're living with your parents.
A lot of people do that.
They do the parent living, raise the money.
Now you have enough to make a move on your own,
whether it's Ireland or somewhere else in the UK or somewhere else in America.
And then you hustle, scrap, kick butt on the side
with the thing that you would love to do.
But what does she love to do?
I don't know.
She says, will I ever find my talent in calling?
I mean, what do you do in your free time?
When you're not working in retail, what do you do?
Me?
No, I'm talking to her.
Got it.
Who, me?
Yes.
What do you do in your free time? I watch basketball.
Nice. So if you didn't have a job in comedy, maybe you would want to get a job in basketball.
Yeah. And a lot of basketball writers, bloggers just were super fans that were like, I have so
many opinions on this and I'm a pretty good writer and I'm just going to put my words down on a blog.
And if the blog is good enough, then it'll find traction. Somebody will link to it,
you'll gain a following, and then somebody will hire you to be that writer.
And if you can't write, you can be like an equipment manager at your favorite team or a
producer at one of your local networks that shows the games of your favorite team. There are many
jobs in your favorite field that you haven't even thought about yet. So just think about what you do
in your free time, what you're passionate about.
Or not even what you're passionate about, just what you like.
Yeah.
From there, you can usually find something that you're passionate about or that you're very good at.
And a lot of opportunities start with just like cold emailing.
Like I just reached out and said I would do whatever you guys want.
Just let me in the building.
Get in the building.
Kick butt.
Exactly what I did.
And move up from there.
CollegeHumor.
Did you email other websites
or just CollegeHumor?
Just CollegeHumor.
You didn't have like a list of like,
I'm going to reach out to these 10 websites,
CollegeHumor being one of them.
I mean, it was like 2003 or 4.
So I don't really even know
what other websites there were
that were doing what we were doing.
E-Bombs World. E-bombs world.
E-bombs world didn't have articles though.
Yeah, that's true.
It was just videos.
What was maybe cracked?
Fark.
But I don't think Fark had it either.
I really, I think.
What was the internet back then?
It was CollegeHumor.
It was Fark.
It was Dig.
It was E-bombs world.
Where else were there funny videos of people getting hit in the head with a shovel?
I forget now.
But, I mean, there was like a list of sites that we had to check to look for funny videos.
Right.
Daily Motion, maybe.
Oh, yeah.
Daily Motion was up there.
Yeah.
Someone should write an oral history about internet comedy from 2001 to 2004.
Because I want to, oh, remember Maddox?
No.
XMaddox.com or something where he would like make fun of your kids' drawings.
Oh, yeah.
That was so funny.
Tucker Max.
Tucker, did he have a website?
I think it started as a blog.
Jesus Christ. All right. Hopefully. Did he have a website? I think it started as a blog. Jesus Christ.
All right.
Hopefully.
Oh, you know what?
This lady emailed us like six months ago, so we should do a follow-up pup with her.
See what she's doing now.
Yeah, I'll write her an email and see how she's doing.
So what happened?
Whoa, it's Lady Gaga.
What?
I guess she became Lady freaking Gaga.
Well, she's been Lady Gaga for years.
Oh, yeah.
It's a different name.
Never mind.
Right.
Figured.
Yeah.
That was dumb.
All right.
Time for me to search question?
Yes.
Butcher.
That's right.
The oldest profession of all.
Butcher.
Meat hacker.
Oh, pretty good.
Eight.
Eight emails. Solidcher. Meat hacker. Oh, pretty good. Eight. Whoa.
Eight emails.
Solid.
Three unread.
One of them is rescue me from the friend zone.
One of them is choosing between friends.
And one of them is fucked up rap a guy sent me caused.
Definitely that one.
Oh, this is great.
All right.
By the way, everybody who thinks they're stuck in the friend zone, that's just where you're always going to be.
So you're not stuck there.
It's just where you are.
Got it.
And that's fine.
Okay, here we go.
Here we are.
We'll call this Lady Alice because that was made on Brady Bunch who dated Sam the Butcher.
So Alice writes,
A few months ago, I met this guy on OkCupid.
I wasn't attracted to him, but he had just graduated from my college,
so I replied to his message.
We had a mutual friend in real life, but we never met in person.
We started texting a lot, and he kept saying that he really liked me.
I liked him a little bit at first, but then he started being weird, overly sexual, and sent me a really long and disturbing rap he wrote, which includes cutting dicks off.
It freaked me the fuck out.
I kept telling him that I want to be friends, but he wouldn't leave me alone.
Finally, I stopped responding to his texts and messages.
He even had his friend text me to ask me why I stopped talking to him.
Recently, he moved halfway across the country,
but he still keeps sending me Snapchats
and messages. It's getting really
annoying, but I don't know how else to tell this weirdo to
stop. What would you do if you were in this situation?
P.S. The rap is below,
so feel free to quote that shit when
you answer my question. Oh my
God, that's, this is great.
We should, like, save this for a live show.
Wow. This is a long rap.
Do you want to do it?
Just give me one
stanza. Okay, I'll do the stanza
with the butcher. We'll see how it goes.
Yeah, this is the butcher.
So it's...
Alright.
This is insane.
They better not run away, I hope hope good thing i have this rope time together you
fucked my wife now you're dying together lucky for me we're on an abandoned street empty warehouse
and complex where houses used to be pull out my butcher's knife recite to each one thou shall now not covet another's wife so your dick was inside my wife
whoosh chopped it off with my knife then proceeded to do the same with the next three they're bleeding
out now it's time for a shotgun in the mouth toby's first blow see if you fuck my wife now
then i do the same to his three punks Better chop them up so they fit in my trunk.
Oh, my God.
Drive down to the Hudson.
That's where I'm going to dump them.
Now to find my horrible wife, kill that bitch who ruined my fucking life.
Oh, my God.
And you said you want to be friends with this guy?
And then it goes to the chorus.
This guy is Stan.
Take it to the chorus. This guy is Stan. Take it to the chorus.
This guy is Stan from Eminem's Stan.
I come back home and her car's still parked.
I walk in the house.
She screams, where's Toby, Joey, Tony, and Mark?
I said, honey, don't worry about them.
Now explain yourself.
Where would you like to begin?
Wait, that's the chorus?
Yeah, it goes on from there.
That's the chorus.
That's right.
He repeats that line?
Or maybe the...
Yeah, I think so.
Oh my God, this is so long.
It's kind of weird that it sort of seems like a ballad,
but the chorus always goes, where would you like to begin?
So he killed the guys or cut their dicks off that cheated on
uh that his wife cheated on him with it is weird that eminem like is famous for doing this yeah
like this this is objectively a creepy terrible rap but eminem did it like did it and it was
it was cool yeah Yeah. What?
Because Eminem is so good that even though his raps are about beating his wife up and— Murdering her?
And murdering her, people are like, that's a really bad sentiment.
But it sounds cool.
It's so cool when you do it that, like, it's fine for now.
Like, people give him a pass.
Yeah.
Not only that, but, like, his raps are still homophobic where
like now everybody's hyper alert to that stuff.
They're like, I know, but he does
it so fast and it's so cool
that like we don't fully mind.
It's really, yeah, it's weird to imagine Eminem
sending any of his raps to a girl
to try to impress her. And she would be
like, these are so creepy.
I think it's illegal almost. You're threatening
me. And then Eminem like just and releases the Marshall Mathers LP.
And it's like, oh, wait.
All right.
Actually, I liked the raps.
They were good.
I like the silly ones, though.
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
Ken Kniff.
Nah, nah, nah, nah.
Do the one about Tom Green fucking a dead moose.
So don't.
I would block this guy. Block the't. I would block this guy.
Block the guy.
I mean, this is insane.
Yeah, I think a good excuse or a good reason to block someone is like, oh, I blocked you because you sent me a text, a rap about you threatening to kill somebody.
And that scared me. Well, the rap, actually, he was killing somebody. It was some sort of like fantasy living where he murdered three people who had fucked his wife.
Yeah.
So even in his fantasy, his wife had an affair with three people.
I can be anything in this world.
All right.
So I'm chopping this guy's dick off for fucking my wife.
I'll be castrating adulterers.
Hopefully you got away from this person.
Yeah, don't be friends with this guy.
You don't want to, like,
have anything to do with him.
Just cold block him.
Never respond to anything he does again.
All right, let's take a break.
We'll come back and we'll answer
some more questions with the Game Boy.
Oh, yeah.

Sure don't. What about you?
I got a pedicure.
Is that it?
First time advice?
That's my advice. Well, I'll take you through it and you can decide whether you want to do one yourself. Okay. Have you ever gotten a pedicure. Is that advice? That's my advice.
Well, I'll take you through it, and you can decide whether you want to do one yourself.
Okay.
Have you ever gotten a pedicure?
No.
Okay.
Neither had I.
For a long time, I thought pedicure was just getting your nails done, like polish and all that stuff.
Isn't that a manicure?
No, but like getting your toenails painted.
Got it.
I don't have my toenails.
I don't need them to be painted.
I don't need a pedicure.
But a pedicure is a lot more than that.
Right.
There is not only maintenance of the nail itself,
you know, long ones being cut,
scraping out gunk underneath the surface,
cleaning the skin around the nail,
which is nice.
It feels good.
But it's also a little hot water.
It's also a little essential oils. It's also a little smell. A maintenance and a foot massage is nice. It feels good. But it's also a little hot water. It's also a little essential oils.
It's also a little smell, a maintenance, and a foot massage is included.
I guess I'm already convinced. I 100% thought it was just nail care.
That's right. And you have busty feet. So this seems like right up your alley because it includes
the foot massage, which is like somebody putting some sort of natural beard oil, shout
out to brothersisterco.com.
That's what's up.
On your foot and just like massaging it for part of it.
Yeah.
I mean, that's absolutely incredible.
I would love that.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't know what else to say.
Cheaper than a haircut.
Really?
Yeah.
Mine was like 18 bucks.
Did you get your nails painted or glossed or anything?
I ended up not getting them glossed.
But my girlfriend who was with me got them glossed and it didn't take that much extra time.
I saw Carnell got his big toe painted.
Yeah, Carnell does.
He's a big petty guy.
He likes to do a big toe paint job.
I believe he took Dave and Jeff and they all got the big toes done. So I'm wondering, pedicure is starting to become less female-oriented.
Is manicure the same thing?
Are Mike and those guys also getting manicures?
I don't know if they get mani-pedis.
I think they might.
Are they getting hand massages?
That seems less interesting to me.
Yeah, I don't think I need a hand massage.
But I definitely have ailing feet and just like a warm foot bath with a massage. Yeah.
That right off the bat. That sounds absolutely incredible to me. I will 100% be doing that.
What's your toenail maintenance schedule right now? Are you a peeler? Are you a filer? Are you a cutter? Are you a clipper?
I clip my toes probably once a month.
Clip?
Yeah.
Where are you doing it? Inside? Outside? Over a trash? Over a sink? Over a salad for your foe?
I do it over a bowl of ramen.
Okay. And that's the natural salt usually the bulls need.
I always clip my nails outside.
Outside.
I sit on my porch.
I clip the nails.
I brush them off the porch onto the street.
What about when it's really cold out?
Like you're on the East Coast.
It's February.
You're clipping your toes outside.
I guess if I usually, I always, it's one of my habits to clip my nails before I travel
because I like to travel and like feel like very streamlined and.
As if like a barefoot race is going to break out and you need any competitive advantage.
It's that I like taking care of everything.
Everything is meticulously packed.
I'm like compact.
Yeah.
You're packed and compact.
Both.
So I rarely have to
trim my nails on the road.
And what about fingernails?
Same thing? Clipping?
Yeah, I clip. I guess that's maybe
every two weeks, but it also might be
once a month. I end up clipping my toes a decent
amount from climbing.
Because I had to fit them in the shoes.
Pretty sure the pedicure includes a clip job.
So next time you need to clip-clop,
why don't you walk over to your neighborhood pedicurist?
Make an appointment.
Get that massage.
I could imagine
being near a pedi place and
walking in and being like, oh, I'll just do this.
But making a point to do it.
Yeah.
Well,
maybe if Joel does it,
just say like next time you go,
Oh yeah,
we'll go sign me up.
Sweet.
Do you know if she does it?
I don't.
Let's email her.
We should find out.
And wait for a response.
I can text her.
I'll say,
how often do you get a petty,
petty cures?
Yeah.
Um,
is there an amount that would make you divorce her?
Twice a day?
I guess.
If she's like, I've been secretly getting pedicures twice a day for our entire relationship and haven't told you.
Is that grounds for expulsion?
I don't think so.
Three times a day?
Once a month?
I feel like.
Something normal?
So if she says once a month, that's grounds for...
I'm just asking.
You feel like you just want me to get a divorce?
No, I'm just floating it out there.
Like, do you really want to be with someone that's going to be the case?
Where she's getting a pedicure every, like, three months?
She said eight times a day.
Oh my god.
That's a lot, right?
Of course that's a lot.
That's how much people drink water.
I just feel like that's too much.
Hold on, I'm going to FaceTime her.
Babe?
Was she getting a patty?
From this really hot guy.
Okay.
She's typing.
She is typing.
This is exciting.
Oh my God, I'm so...
Would you ask specifically?
I said, how often do you get pedicures?
And she's like, I can't believe you don't know that.
You don't really know me at all, do you?
She said, in the summer, probably like every three or four weeks, or if we go on vacation.
Every three weeks?
So like once a month?
Yeah.
And in the winter, I'm a fungal beast down there.
It grows and curls.
I am a hobbit.
I like to let my big toe hair grow in and braid it.
I just wrote K with a question mark.
Like, what the fuck is wrong with you?
Okay.
And what else are you not taught?
And then I wrote grounds for expulsion.
You think she probably gets what that means, right?
She listens to the show.
Yeah, she gets it.
She's on the Patreon.
No, I just responded very nice
don't think that i have to approve everything and the haircuts and then she said why of course
yeah right why not why would you want to tell her that we're talking about it on the podcast okay
let's see what she has to say about that. Okay. While you do that, is there
another word? Oh, it's gotta be
pedicure. It's gonna be pedicure, because we're
talking about it. That's a good one.
Nothing.
Not one email about a pedicure. Really?
Let's go manicure.
Just, yeah,
just like spam. Okay, let's go
foot job, all one word. Foot job
one word?
Oh. Foot fet, one word? Oh.
Foot fetish problem.
Yes.
One email.
One email?
One email, one word.
Have we answered it?
We've read it, but I don't think we've answered it.
I've won the game.
It's happened so long ago that it doesn't matter.
We have a winner.
All right, what's a good name for the foot fetish problem man?
Oh!
What's, oh, um...
Prince
Charming? Is that what Cinderella is?
Is it Prince Charming? Yeah, Prince Charming.
Is that his name? Snow White is also Prince Charming?
Oh! That's a good question.
Is that also his name? His name is like Ron Charming?
I don't know. And it's like
Prince Charming? IMDB that shit.
And then there's a King Charming.
Cinderella IMDB cast.
Cinderella Prince.
Prince Charming is his actual name.
Let's see if his name is like Dan.
What's the funniest name to have a guy?
Rod Charming.
Chad Charming.
Name. have a guy rod charming chad charming name uh but reveals his name yeah oh that's funny and once upon a time prince charming is renamed prince
thomas as prince charming was a nickname for the prince. Oh.
So it's not his real name.
That makes sense.
But what about that other Snow White prince?
Is it also Prince Charming?
Let's find that out.
We got to at this point.
Just the prince.
Why is everyone obsessed with the prince?
The kings are never part of the romance, right?
It's always like, yes, my dad is this old figure but like i'm in line to become the new king yeah but there's never like
a hot 18 year old king charming that's interesting who's mrs charming anyway and you can be a king
without being married right if you're if your. Yeah, as long as your daddy dies. Anywho, let's talk about this
guy's foot fetish. My name is Prince Charming and I have a foot fetish. It developed about a year
ago when I saw a random video on the internet of a girl giving a guy a foot job. He came all over
her feet. Are you aware of what a foot job is? It's like a hand job with your feet. Yeah, of course.
So it's a woman jerking off a guy with her feet. I mean, there's many different ways to do it.
I can't believe that you don't know what it is.
You've never seen this in porn?
No, I've never seen it in porn.
That's crazy.
Is it ever like a guy fucking the area in between the big toe and the index?
That seems like it's probably too thin.
A lot of the time you see people put their feet together.
They're sort of like this.
Oh, that little vagina crevice between the two feet.
Yes.
And a guy's fucking that.
Yeah.
That's usually what it is.
It is a perfect shape.
Yeah.
But there's like lots of different ways that you can hold your feet to create,
like you put your feet together in many different ways.
You know, the rest of your body can be doing different stuff.
Yeah.
You are fully erect at this point.
I don't, I don't find foot stuff hot,
but I have seen it.
I'm not a fucking weirdo.
It's a weirdo to not see it.
Yeah, you're an absolute square.
For that.
Since then, they've always interested me.
Lately, though, it's gotten out of hand.
Pun intended, do you think?
Probably not, but that's good.
Got it.
That's very good.
It's good if you never see it.
Have you ever seen a handjob where a girl is jerking a guy off with her hands?
Oh, come on.
I started staring at a girl's feet often in public, and they were noticing, and it was really awkward.
Then it slowly got worse and worse.
I get boners every time I see a foot.
It's horrible.
I'm not the biggest guy, about six inches, but it's still noticeable, at least until I flip it up into my waistband.
You guys don't have to tell us how big your dick is when you write it.
In general. I need some way to get rid of this, and my friend recommended you,
so please help. My current girlfriend, long distance relationship of three and a half
months, knows nothing of this, And I've joked about it.
And it's clear that she doesn't even like feet.
And she doesn't actually find, and she even finds them a bit revolting.
So do I come clean to her about this?
Even though she hates feet and would judge me.
Or do I break up with her?
We're planning on meeting up in about a month.
And I don't want her to notice my constant foot boners.
Oh!
Ooh.
Nor do I want to...
Oh, my God.
This guy's calling me.
Constant foot boners.
Nor do I want to explain this to her.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It must be tough to have a foot fetish
because feet aren't really like a private part.
It's sort of like, imagine like you're a boob guy
and it's commonplace for everybody's boobs
to be out all the time.
Yeah, but like if you have a foot fetish,
is a shoe the equivalent of a shirt?
Or is it the, I guess it is.
Like do you have to see a bare foot?
And then if you see a bare foot, is it like the equivalent of bare boots?
Think about the summer where, like, somebody's wearing sandals.
A thong.
Yeah.
It is called a thong.
It's probably named by somebody with a foot fetish.
Like, that's the hottest thing a foot can wear.
Yeah, oh my god.
It has to be in something.
It's so revealing.
That foot is wearing a thong.
Jeez, foot.
Leave something to the imagination, you coy wench.
You know, Cisco's thong song was about flip-flops.
That's right.
Yeah.
So this guy sees feet everywhere.
I think you probably just, I mean, I don't know.
Maybe you just should watch a bunch of foot fetish porn so you can get yourself a little more desensitized to it. Sometimes I think when you discover a new thing you think is hot, you can exhaust it to make it a little more commonplace.
Oh, I see.
Or is it the opposite way around?
You search pictures of gross feet.
I want to see athlete's foot.
I want to see a bunion so big you call it Paul.
That's right. What's it called when your thumb toe is like jetting out and it has like this weird shape to it?
That's a bunion.
It is a bunion.
It is a bunion.
So what's the growth on like a foot?
A corn?
Yeah.
I want to see a corn.
Whatever happened to corn on your feet?
You really hear about a foot corn.
You hear so much about corn on the cow.
Yeah.
We're going to hear about cord on the toe. Nice. So why don't
you get yourself grossed out? Because if you're into boobs
or you're into butts, there's not a lot of ailments when it comes to that.
I guess, yeah, I don't know. I also think that if
he gets so turned on by feet but his girlfriend is not
into it, that might be a little bit of an issue.
I think you should be honest
and say that you have a foot fetish.
Or you don't have to say it's a fetish.
I feel like fetish would seem like
it's kind of perverted and
disgusting. And it's not a bad thing. It's just like
that's what gets you going.
And you can find
other people that
also have the same exact turn-ons although isn't
it the hottest sex ever yeah maybe you can say you get turned on by giving someone a foot massage
then she's getting a foot massage no one's gonna say no to that no one's gonna be annoyed about
getting a foot massage i mean it depends i think i would be annoyed if about getting a foot massage
if the person massaging my feet had like a throbbing hard-on oh really like salivating yeah i don't
know if that's like an even trade because like my foot hurts and i want you to rub it and i know
that it gets you off sexually yeah if i rubby i will get a chubby yeah but what if it's a female
getting turned on by rubbing your feet?
Yeah, I don't know.
Is there ever foot fucking in internet porn?
What do you mean foot fucking?
Oh, like where somebody puts their... A toe, a fingering.
A toeing.
Into a vagina?
You know, fingering is fingering, but what about toeing?
I mean, I am absolutely certain that exists.
But you've never necessarily seen it.
I think that seems, to me anyway, that seems like the kind of porn you have to kind of like search specifically.
It all exists.
It's all there.
If you can dream it, they have done it.
And there is like.
What's the hardest finger toe to get into a vagina?
It's got to be the second one.
The one small, like next to the pinky.
The ring toe.
Yeah. Are they called that? Like index finger is your second one small, like next to the pinky. The ring toe. Yeah.
Are they called that?
Like index finger is your second one, the one next to the thumb.
Is that called that on your toes?
I don't think so.
Because I mean, the one that we all know is not, it's not called your toe thumb.
It's called your big toe.
Yeah.
But the pinky is still a pinky.
A pinky toe.
Yeah.
So we know two of the toes, the three toes in the middle.
Yeah.
Do they have a name?
No fucking idea.
What about your ring toe? Don't you sometimes wear a toe ring? And would you wear it on your ring toe?
I guess I would call it the ring toe, the middle toe, and your second toe.
So big toe, second toe.
I'm going to search toe names.
Big toe, second toe, middle toe, ring toe, and pinky toe.
Oh, look at this.
So the first toe is known as the hallux, or big toe, great toe, thumb toe, or first little piggy.
The second toe is known as the long toe, or pointer toe, or index toe.
No second toe?
The third toe, or middle toe, long toe, or third little piggy. I mean, it's tough because everybody is, you know, some people have a longer second and middle toe than their big toe.
Yeah, that was part of mine.
That was part of like my 23 and me.
It's like if you have a longer index.
Do you have a longer toe, thumb, big toe?
My thumb toe is the longest.
My though-tum.
And actually, my pinky toe is almost as long as my thumb toe.
What?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Instead of going descending order, my toe-thumb is a little, little nub.
Right.
And then my pinky is the longest.
I'm also a little unique because I have a sixth and seventh toe.
Yeah, I see that sixth pinky.
Yeah.
Wait, let me continue this.
Fourth toe is the ring toe.
Nice. So you let me continue this. Fourth toe is the ring toe. Nice.
So you did nail that one.
And the fifth toe
is either the baby toe,
the little toe,
the pinky toe,
the small toe,
the tiny toe,
the wee toe,
or fifth little piggy.
Nice.
The pinky toe.
What a small toe.
The only one I didn't get
was the second toe.
I wouldn't have ever called it
the pointer or index.
Well, I'll point with the second toe. It's definitely not the pointer. I resent that. It's obviously the second toe. I wouldn't have ever called it the pointer or index. Well, I'll point with the
second toe. It's definitely not the pointer. I resent that.
It's obviously the second toe. I'm pointing right now
with my second toe. It's like, you want to
go over there? If I said, yeah,
your shoe's on, so it's tough to know.
I'm just doing that so you don't get too turned
on. But what were you saying? If you said
pointer toe? If I said pointer toe or index toe,
I don't think anybody would really know what I was talking
about. But second toe, you nail it. index toe, I don't think anybody would really know what I was talking about. I think so because of index finger.
Second toe nails it.
What about index finger?
Why is it called that?
I don't know.
I have no idea.
Okay.
All right.
So that's our toe ideology.
That's our names.
That podcast idea that Carnell had where it's called the rabbit hole hole you just like get stoned and ask weird questions
either way this guy's jerking off to this entire question i mean we are going into graphic detail
about how to fuck a foot what the names of the toes are whether or not anyone's been towed in a
porno before yeah you think you could find a porn where the second toe sorry the ring toes been
penetrating a woman probably Probably. That's awesome.
Yeah.
That's really cool.
Yeah.
I'm serious.
I haven't ever said that about anything that you have ever referenced.
You're usually talking a lot of shit.
I think it's really fucking dope what that is.
For you to say that, probably?
Yeah.
That was really cool.
Because you're not even like-
I was like a little nonchalant
I was like yeah probably
that's really cool
it was like
yeah it was like
positive and dismissal
yeah
I was like
I don't care necessarily
about questions
because like
that's nerdy school shit
yeah
but like
I also know about porn
if necessary
yeah
which is kind of cool
oh nice
so it's like probably
and you didn't even say probably
because you don't even have time
for that shit
you're like probably that's really cool't even say probably because you don't even have time for that.
You're like probably.
That's really cool.
Ask me a question.
I want to do that.
Probably.
Wait, sorry.
I'll wait until the end. Do you need to change your diaper?
Change your what?
What's that?
Do you need to change your diaper?
And then you're going to say probably.
Yes, probably.
I'm basically.
I can't believe you wear diapers.
I did shart, so I don't know if I have to fully change the diaper or if I can wear it out.
Or if I could just wipe it and keep it going through the afternoon.
Because it's definitely not a wide load.
It probably is a little fucking tadpole.
It was a squirter.
Probably.
All right, that's it.
That's our time.
Thank you so much for writing in.
That was a successful Game Boy.
Questions we wouldn't necessarily
have found otherwise.
Yeah, for sure.
