From Starbucks debt to bad impressions Real advice with a thousand digressions phenomenal phenomenal nice uh this is if i were you the only advice pod on the web hosted by
yeah boy uh i'm a mirror oh my god what a perfect fucking intro that you immediately ruin
with your constipated ya boy
i actually haven't it's ya boy what the fuck i haven't taken a shit a week. That was poison to my ears. That's why it did sound like.
I can't even do it again.
Ya boy.
You're pushing a fucking turd.
All I can muster.
Just trying to have a bowel movement, that's all.
Ya boy.
Come on.
A black marble trickles down my pants
it's so dense it cracks your toilet your first shit in a month
good stuff and also also good stuff from missy fay who wrote that song missy fay i adored that
theme yeah she's been watching watching us for nine years now,
and the song was in order.
And even though I was already 20 when I started watching,
I was an extremely underbaked 20-year-old.
My Instagram is itsmissyfaye,
and I'm a dreamy sort of soft rock musician from Vancouver.
You guys have given me enormous amounts of joy over the years and i'm so grateful
for the escape you really do deserve so much more than this perhaps a golden mic for each of you
random i don't think so
perhaps is this the episode that uh yeah boy gets uh gets a mic that's gwaldon
yeah boy
i hate it make it a ringtone that'll never pick up a ringtone do they still have those
are those still a thing i think so like i think so i feel like most phones
my dad has a custom most phones are either silent or vibrate or definitely not i haven't heard a
ringtone in a while no it definitely i don't like it when my phone rings that's a bad look that
means something's gone awry do you keep yourself on do not disturb day to day moment to moment are you i'm usually
vibrate when there's an alert i'm a i'm a silent phoner so i'll put my phone on silent and i'm so
often just staring at it that i'll see when it goes right or like i'm looking at it every four
and a half minutes so like i can call that person back yeah i am uh i'm a silent do not disturb but i don't miss anything because it's always basically
there's always something going on yeah i've never misplaced my phone because my phone's always on my
person yeah yeah i know if you're looking for your phone it's with yeah boy yeah boy staple to my thigh you used to have such a thick phone yes i had a
phone with the mofi case yeah and that was also the era of tight jeans tight jeans with your
mofi pants and a big and at a certain point the top of my mofi was lost so i just had this
giant battery to the bottom of it top just exposed yammo do they still make those are
phone batteries fine enough now that you don't need an external battery i see them less no they
must they're i see them less too but they must still make them uh there's i mean there's no way
because people still you know everyone's always looking for a charge. Though nowadays with the whole mostly being at home thing,
I'm never far from a charger.
That's what it is.
I'm never away from home.
COVID killed the Mophie.
Yes.
And now COVID's coming back and that's going to make sure
that our phones are constantly charged.
I don't even charge my phone overnight anymore
because I'm like, I'll just have it at my desk
or whenever I need to charge it.
Do you do an overnight charge i have a charger
by the bed but like if if for some reason it's not there like if i've gone to connecticut and
didn't plug it in or whatever i'm i i don't stress a i know oh yeah there's also a switchable outlet
in our room and sometimes i like switched it by accident and my phone's not going to charge so i
won't fret that i won't even get out of bed for that charge my phone's not going to charge so i won't fret that
i won't even get out of bed for that charge because it's not going to be a problem to get
me back up to a hundred and you do a hundred i keep it a hundred all right i keep it a hundred
what's it at now i don't have it on my person i don't't know where it is. But it's in the house.
Mine's at 98, which is just too shy of 100.
Yeah, well, I keep it at 100.
Yeah, that's cool.
All right, this is a Fire Review, the only advice pod on the web hosted by us.
Episode 500 is in the rear view now.
We can focus on the next 500.
Yeah, we are on our way to 1K.
Couldn't get there with the web series,
but I think we can get there with the podcast.
Dab on them.
Dab on it so you know it's true.
All right, we got a question from a lady
who has a moral conundrum.
She says this could almost be a testing testing.
Shout out to our thursday bonus episodes recently
in which we give each other quizzes she said this one could be a good question for a morality quiz
so why don't we call this lady morality very nice that's really how's that for a name
morality dickinson writes um i'm currently subletting an apartment from a friend of a friend.
I've only met the apartment owner once in passing,
so we're not super close.
And the other night,
I was startled by a mouse in her kitchen
and accidentally knocked over a porcelain vase.
Do you say vase or vase?
I think I say vase.
It shattered everywhere.
I immediately panicked and researched the vase online.
Luckily, it's not one of a kind,
but unluckily, it is a designer item that costs hundreds of dollars. So I bit the bullet and I ordered a replacement and
it should arrive in a few days. So my question is, am I morally obligated to tell the apartment
owner what happened? Or can I just replace the vase and hide the body, so to speak? For some
reason, I feel this overwhelming guilt about pretending as if nothing happened. And I know she she'll never know but it still feels dishonest as sheesh thank you for all you do
especially for recording constantly during the early lockdown days the continuity of a new episode
every week really helped me through the uncertainty wow celebration hashtag henry thank you thank you
i should go back henry we should we should go back and listen to those episodes from March and April where we
just like out of sorts,
despondent and noticeably depressed.
I wonder.
I noticed that you were sad.
Really?
Yeah.
But you were sort of whatever about it.
You were even keel.
You,
you tried to be the rock of the podcast and not,
not feel highs or lows.
I was stressed and sad as well,
but I feel like I just noticed that COVID was on your mind.
Right, like I was preoccupied.
But I wonder if we listen to like an episode from April 2020,
will we be noticeably different sounding?
I think so.
But actually, I mean,
given the fact that we listened to episode one during the episode 500 and it sounded kind of the same, you know, maybe not.
Maybe it will be the same.
Or maybe we're still in that COVID mindset.
Right.
And so, like, we haven't even snapped out.
Yeah.
I could be.
Who knows?
What if I told you this thing that you're listening to right now is me from April of 2020?
Would you believe that? I would believe april of 2020 would you believe that
i would believe that yeah you'd believe that i would believe that how how would you believe that
i just told you something insanely difficult to fathom that me right now is me from april of 2020
you're actually speaking to somebody from the past that's and you would believe that i would believe that and i would
tell you that i would ask you to invest in crypto for my ass or buy a cyberpunk could you get me a
really good uh i want a fungible i want to write i want a fungible token but i don't want it to be
i want it to be non-fungible is what i mean too many tokens are fungible do Do you hear what I'm saying? Yeah, it's not really me. I need an NFT from you
past Amir.
If you buy that,
we would be rich now.
Do you get that?
Yeah.
Do you know what a fungible token is?
No, not really.
Well, you need to find one that's non.
Okay.
That's the only thing you have to tell me?
No other updates about the world at large
trump tries to steal the election but it's fine for the most part he didn't get to do it
so it's get me that so get me an nft punk now ass speaking of telling people would you tell
someone that you replaced their vase
i feel like the two i think this person i think morality is being very moral perhaps overly moral
because i feel like there's two different paths one is like if you don't want to replace this
thing you could come clean and be like i'm so sorry i broke the vase um i will buy you a new one and then like the hope is that they say
don't worry about it it was really expensive it was a gift yada yada but i feel like you come
clean if you want that like that small chance of not actually having to replace the vase
what this person did was actually really nice they were like i'm not gonna like
fess up and have a weird conversation about like if i can afford like i'm not gonna like fess up and have a weird
conversation about like if i can afford it i'm not gonna put them in that place i'm just gonna
replace like for like in kind replace the vase in kind uh and and i don't think since you took
the onus you put it on yourself i don't think you have to say that you replace the vase
you ate the cost yeah but you should what if she steps on a piece of porcelain pooter
well you have to clean it i mean they have to do the work correctly you get the new vase you
clean up all of the mess you hide everything or you fix everything and then you've done the work so you
don't have to have the sad part happen which is the conversation i think you do replace the vase
but then on the way out it's like by the way i'm a dumbass and i forgot to realize that you'd rent
me a mouse infested apartment i I'm not paying for this shit.
It actually startled me to the point
that I broke a vase, which I did
replace and I'm taking that
money out of you. In kind.
I replaced it in kind, actually.
What does that mean?
Like for like. The same
vase. At the very least, the same
style. It was the same
type of vase. I got your vase at a very least the same style it was the same type of vase the vase that i got at a 76
gas station where did you get the original one um at a gucci store it was 7800 what's gucci with her
she's all that
uh see you would not say anything i would say something because i would feel too bad i would
i would also not really feel too bad but i would be afraid that i would get caught yeah that's and
really the fear of getting caught is more important than being quote-unquote moral because it's
honestly like when you say i want to do the right thing you don't want to do the right thing you just want to
get away with this fucking crime and if she looks at a fucking nanny cam and sees that you broke
something and she calls you out on it you're stuck you don't know whether to continue digging a hole
or not shout out to our animated series on patreon stuck that's right shout out to stock new episode this week so check that out as well
thank you appreciate it um yeah you you paid for it you replaced it in kind in kind but i feel like
this person is the the guilt is eating her alive so i think she should say something she can't get
in trouble i'm trying to i'm helping with the guilt i don't think it needs to eat you alive i think you've done the right thing by
replacing the vase in kind yes i know i know you think it was done in kind it was done in kind
it was kind of where to do it uh all right cool let. Let's take a break. Thanks to the sponsors.

cool
sorry I have to spell it out for some people
yeah you do
and we're back Jake do you have any M-E-N-T-S. Cool. Sorry, I have to spell it out for some people. Yeah, you do.
And we're back.
Jake, do you have any?
Oh, it's a little sooner than I can.
Mom, I'm coming.
Gross.
Eggs.
Hmm?
Eggs.
Are you the Eggman? Nice. Cuckoo-cachoo, Jakey. Are you the egg man?
Nice.
Cuckoo, ca-choo, Jakey. Are you the egg man or not?
I've been fucking around with some hard-boiled eggs.
Actually, medium-boiled eggs.
Whoa.
In the morning.
In the a.m.
That's your breakfast?
It's a really easy...
Yeah.
It's easy.
It's filling.
It's tasty. It's a really easy, yeah, it's easy, it's filling, it's tasty.
It's a simple cleanup.
It's really, it's a near perfect food, an egg.
Well, I agree with eggs in general because they're very quick and easy to make.
Like even just frying an egg is quick and easy and fill you up and I think it tastes good.
But sell me on the hard boiled slash medium boiled.
Do you have to do that
fresh or can you pre-do that you can pre-do that you can leave a hard boiled or a medium boiled
egg in your refrigerator for years i mean it'll go bad after a week but yeah you can definitely
leave it there to rot that would be spoil yeah um no it's your fridge make them for like a few days
for the for the week maybe.
Okay. So how long are you putting these eggs in boiling water?
I set a timer for eight minutes and I think some people, uh, swear by the seven minute.
Um, I mean the less time you do it for the runnier your yolk will be.
So you can kind of find your sweet spot.
Got it.
For me, that's, that's eight minutes.
It's not dripping, but it's not, it's not you know like chalk texture yeah it's not the chalk it's a little more gooey
it's gooey it's a nice little gooey egg and it's you just are you pre-peeling or sorry i'm asking
a question are you peeling the eggs to put them in the fridge or do you want me to peel it every morning i don't pre-peel the
eggs and put them in the fridge i put them in the shell and put them in the fridge you're boiling
how many six ish eight ish putting them in the fridge i'll do four and i'll have two and then
ask jill if she wants one and then i have a snack or a light breakfast for the next day.
I'm not doing six and having the eggs for the whole week
because I don't want my life to be that planned ahead.
I like a day or two.
That's kind of the max.
So you are—
I can change it up.
In the morning, you eat two hard-boiled eggs.
You just peel it, shove it in your mouth,
or are you taking a bite and biting it in half?
Are you seasoning the egg?
Are you treasoning the egg?
I'm not treasoning the egg.
That's what you do a little espionage to the egg.
I would never.
I would never spy on the egg,
and I would never tattle on the egg,
and I would never back...
I'm no Benedict Eggs Arnold.
Nice.
You mean Eggs Benedict Arnold.
God damn it, man.
I was fucking...
My brain's not quite sharp enough, but it was...
Actually, call me an Eggs Benedict Arnold because I treason my eggs.
How's that for a joke yeah if you if you go viral on tiktok for that i would
i'd really like to see that i would like to see that earn me anything hardware wise or are you
that's not yet to be decided yet no that wouldn't earn anything hardware wise because it's happening
outside the podcast and it was a joke we collaborated on
so the fact that you're trying to spin that into fucking silverware for you it's tacky
okay and i do season the eggs with salt lightly and i eat them hunched over the sink lest they dribble onto the counter
and are you biting into it in half or are you just shoving the whole thing in that's breakfast
i do a non-peel eat the shell hard boil straight out of the fucking uh saucepan boiling hot it burns and it's sharp no i do i do a um i probably it's two bites two
bites maybe three um and you with some salt you prefer that you prefer that to like scrambling
two eggs i prefer that to scrambling eggs because then i don't have to like i don't have to clean
a frying pan i don't have to scrub anything i don't have to clean a frying pan. I don't have to scrub anything.
I don't have to take out like a fork and a plate. This is like a very, it's a very
lightweight meal. You know, there's not a lot of accoutrement associated with it.
Is that your entire breakfast, the two eggs?
Sometimes I'll do two eggs and like a piece of prosciutto or some sliced turkey.
So it's like eggs and some meat, but all eaten with my hands over the sink.
I wouldn't necessarily recommend that.
What I recommend is the—
Yeah, the sink part seems optional.
I mean, all of my breakfast I eat with my hands.
I'm not sitting down for breakfast I need to be eating on
the go I'm I'm walking and eating that's that's the MO well the eggs I eat over the sink right
before I leave um but yeah it's just in generally in general uh cooking medium boiled eggs I do
something similar but I go banana every morning for breakfast. Very quick, fills me up on the go.
Every morning.
You do every morning a banana for breakfast.
Yeah.
I kind of don't feel ready to eat
until like 11 or noon,
except for a banana.
A banana I feel like I can have right away with water.
That's kind of,
I have a banana about half,
I feel like my three breakfasts are
hard-boiled eggs bananas or croissants and i'm trying to do the croissant as little as possible
but that's what i always want the croissant every single day i wake up and i want to yeah that's
what i want i want a croissant every day i love them and they also don't fill me up like i could
eat a croissant and then have literally anything
else croissant is just an appetizer to me what are your thoughts on a hard-boiled egg shaped like a
banana so you'd peel a banana instead of a banana inside it's the consistency of a hard-boiled egg
that's an oblong a long tube and as you bite into it the inside is still that yolk so it's a where is the egg where does the yolk lie
is it in the center or is it like kind of is the yolk also within the tube
tubed within it so every bite of the banana you're getting yolk the cross-section looks like an egg
and i am getting i'm yoking with you because obviously you can't actually pull this off
especially if it's like a legit banana peel that you actually have to peel open.
Like maybe you can fashion it by replacing the banana with three eggs, but there's no way you could, right?
Make it so that the banana.
Yeah, no, you know, it's obviously can't be done.
We were pontificating on something.
It's not like we were scheming.
No. it's a
hypothetical that really barely i i was fucking humoring you i didn't want to talk about it
i didn't even want to talk about it no where you can genetically where we go into business
yes you sort of force a hen to fuck a cock but instead of a cock like a cockadoodle do like a rooster whatever you know it's a banana
so you sort of crossbreed genetically modify these things where the hens lay little don't
get exhausted explaining it to me it sounds like you're bored It's a fucking harebrained, batshit crazy scheme that would never work.
And you're sort of like, you're trailing off as you explain it.
Like, yeah, it would never, could never, will never be.
Okay.
Okay.
Awful. No. okay okay jesus no that's exactly what they said about like cubed watermelon yeah and what happened with cubed watermelon somebody figured it out
the trick is to grow them in a box okay okay so how would you get the banana fucking
i was telling you you weren't you were not a hen fucks a banana she really does yeah and her period is not a little egg as it were it's a small banana and likewise the father
is not a rooster it's not a cock it's yes it's a banana with an egg inside that you can honestly
the hardest part is hard boiling the bitch without figuring out how to ruin the peel no the hardest part is getting a fucking hen to fuck a banana i think yeah well
that we can yeah figure out there's ways or believe that no there's ways to figure that all
out i guess even if it that happened it wouldn't be it wouldn't result in what you're anyway hoping for what's your
unsolicited advice fucking never mind yeah you obviously you're not ready for it um
all right let's see if we can answer some more cues yeah uh this one's called the penis gallery Penis Gallery. Okay. So we'll call him Tricky Dick. Tricky Dick.
Nice.
Right.
Big fan of you guys.
My girlfriend recently confessed to me that she's secretly taken a picture of her ex-boyfriend's penises.
Like some sort of 007 inches.
She swears she hasn't taken a picture of mine before.
Should I be worried that I'm the only one without a pic?
Should I volunteer my own glorious hog as tribute?
Todah.
Love, Tricky Dick Nixon.
Interesting.
If anything, it's nice to be different than the exes, I think.
So, you don't want to be in that camp because then you, you know, then the, I don't know,
you're getting closer and closer to having things in common with guys she didn't want to be in that camp because then you you know then the i don't know you're getting closer and closer to having things in common that with guys she didn't want to be with yeah but you also don't
want to be like well let me send you a picture of my hog so you can add it to the portfolio
that way i'm also in there your little rolodex of fucking limp dicks that you used to blow. Yeah. So I think it's good.
Somebody that I used to blow.
Got ye.
Nice.
Goat ye.
Yes, exactly.
Got ye.
Got ye, your old bud.
Your friend.
Got ye, my reference is right.
Should you be at all alarmed that this lady has been doing that to her exes do you want that kind of shit on your conscience slash lady is that a non-starter is that a non-harder
i don't know i don't know it's weird it's weird i wouldn't be like i don't think i would learn
that information and be like, I don't
know if I would have, what my reaction would be, would be like, that's weird.
But I don't know.
Ultimately fine.
That she snuck photos of her ex's dicks and has a weird little like gallery.
It feels like the kind of thing that like you would find out about
not that she would tell you would you rather add your dick to the portfolio or have her delete the
entire file slash folder yeah i guess i don't want to make anyone delete a collection.
Yeah, it's taken a long time to acquire those.
But I wouldn't want to be added to the thing. I don't, I, yeah, I would want to, if this happened
to me, I would just want to forget that I ever knew it. And I wouldn't have a, I wouldn't be
like, okay, well, the only way I'll feel good about this is if my picture is in the dick museum that's where i that's what i want
so yeah so let's say i know we'll say i know um there's a gallery you want to see the dicks
i would not want to see the dicks absolutely would not want to see the dicks because
that could go sideways would you be curious to see the D's?
Can I see the D's, please?
I'd like to see the pictures of the penises.
Babe.
Please, now.
Be a doll and let me see the penis gallery.
Nice. Sweetie. Sweetie, what's your iphone password i need your face i need your face if i want to see your ex's hogs
oh lordy yeah i'd be curious i guess i deserve to see them every time you're with someone you
deserve to see the privates of the ones that laid before you.
Yeah.
I really don't know what to do here.
I would not,
I would,
I,
I would just be like,
let's never talk about this again.
I think I would have to say,
let's never talk about this again.
Oh,
don't be such a prude.
I'd want to see the D's.
I know. And then I can want to see the Ds. I know, I know.
And then I can sort of compare my jaunts.
The comparing will be easy.
Contrasting will be hard, since they all sort of look exactly like mine.
Your jaunts are so small, they call it a Johnny.
Let's take a break.
Oh, come on.
You have a tiny little pecker.
Let's really, really take a break. Oh, come on. You have a tiny little pecker. Let's really, really take a break.
A long break.
And think about what just happened
and why that was completely not okay to say.
Then let's go to break
because I feel like you're still chastising me
and we haven't cut away.
That can't happen in the third act is this the break
no no we haven't cut away yet because i want everyone to know this is all still what you did
okay was absolutely a huge no-no my johnson is a johnny we'll be right back, and by then we'll have solved this issue.
Oh, not even close.
Let's just cut.
I need more time.
Let's cut there, and then we'll hash it out.
And we'll kick off.
I'll never unhear that.
Do you think this is a fucking Johnny?
Here's Johnny.
Oh, God.
It's not just small.
It's also, it's misshapen and a weird color, frankly.
Let's get a break.
Let's get a break.
Obviously.
Thank you to DraftKings for sponsoring this episode of our show.
Hey-o, DraftKings.
The NFL is back.
That's correct.
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.
Wow.
So if you like watching football, and it sounds like you do.
I do.
Yeah, I do a lot.
This can really heighten your joy.
That's right.
I grew up a Raiders fan.
And now I'm just a fan of the league in general.
But I still have-
You're a fan of gambling.
Enough.
Yes, of course.
You're a fan of gambling in general.
Yes.
And I do have an affinity for the silver and black.
So if you like football as
much as me which is not likely because i do know a lot like do you know what a nickelback uh does
in a cover two defense or like do you know what a play action passes like these are like some
advanced things that i know that you wouldn't necessarily know. I basically know run and Hail Mary.
You actually know both of those?
Yeah, running is when you run, and then Hail Mary is when you chuck it, right?
Damn.
I think you should download the DraftKings Pick 6 app.
Select between two and six players.
I have a sure thing for you to put some money on.

Jake and I sort of hashed it out.
Would you say I have an average sized hog or whatever
yeah it's a it's a normal sized size and it's not color small hairy or beet red um it does not look
like a third nipple in between your legs it actually looks like a normal dick and it doesn't
look like it has um a pinky nail growing out of the head of it uh and it didn't look like it has a pinky nail growing out of the head of it.
Thank you.
And it didn't frown at me when I saw it.
That's a little too much TMI.
I said it didn't have any of that stuff.
And I appreciate it.
Thank you for clarifying.
And the whole Johnny Johnson thing was a misnomer.
I think, right?
We said after the break this would be fucking hashed out.
You and I talked offline for an hour and a half.
We cut back in.
You heard from my lawyers.
Yeah, I see that. And you said, just read the statement, Azarit.
I don't think I wrote the pinky nail one.
Amir has a huge Johnson.
A John Johnson, as it were.
Thank you.
All right, one last question.
Yeah, why not?
This one is about potentially committing a federal crime.
Interesting.
A lady from California. So I've
had the same post office box for four years and I keep getting this other lady's mail.
I would turn it into the mail people and they just put it back in my box. Luckily, I know this lady,
we're in a small town, so I messaged her on Facebook and she tells me I could just throw it
away. But today I accidentally opened her letter thinking it was for me and it had a
$50 Safeway gift card in it. I read the name on the letter and alas, it is someone from her family.
So I sealed it up nice and I told her that I found her mail and she told me to just throw it
away. Now listen, I'm a little strapped for cash these days and it would be a shame to just let
this gift card go to waste.
But morally, I don't think it's right to take it.
What should I do?
It's just going to go in the trash if I bring it in the post office.
And I can't tell her I opened her mail.
So is this legal or not?
Interesting.
Another good moral dilemma.
Yeah, this is a moral quandary.
It's funny.
The ladies write in, and they're like, I accidentally did this.
I feel bad.
And then the guys are like,
my chick has a picture of other guys' dicks
and I'm sort of pissed off about that.
And I want to show her my hogs.
It's, yeah.
I don't know.
She told you to throw it away.
Yeah, but the gift card.
There's a way to get this gift card to her
without saying you open their
mail though it's like you could just be like you know these are these gift cards can easily be like
pasted on the outside of a flyer or something like it also this is it's not just the you're
actually not just you know taking the cash it's a gift from a family member. So I think for that reason, you can't do it.
If it was like a sweepstakes thing,
like Safeway is sending people gift cards,
and that's kind of like the guys that you could reach out
and be like, hey, you got a gift card in the mail.
Do you want it?
But I kind of feel like it being from a family member,
you have to be like, this package,
you can lie and say that you didn't open it.
Like this letter arrived open.
It was actually a gift card.
It looks like somebody sent it to you.
Do you want it?
Right.
And then if she says, no, you can throw it away, then it's up for grabs.
Well, yeah, then it's your gift card for sure.
But I don't think you can rightfully, like like you know now that you can't throw it away
and i don't know yeah it's it's too bad because like in any like in any other world
if you didn't open this this would have been in the trash anyway it's basically like finding money
but knowing that it came from someone in her family specifically to her, I think it's gotta be returned.
Fuck, because it could come back
and she'd be like,
I saw that you've spent the gift card.
Congratulations.
Thanks for using it.
No, it's not about getting caught.
It's just about doing the right thing.
You worry too much about getting caught
if I can be candid with you.
I don't wanna be in trouble.
That's not morality.
That's cowardice, by the way. You no it's not you have no scruples you're you're afraid of being found out that you're
actually a little weasel and that's why you just got the goddamn turdy because you showed me your
ugly dick in the middle of the episode you sent me me a cease and desist. You sent me a statement from your lawyer.
And I came up with Benedict
fucking eggs. And that was
pretty good. Almost eggs
Benedict Arnold. And
I'll have you know that is a golden
mic. Because that doesn't just come
out of nowhere. Even if you
fucking don't get a hole in one, you can
still birdie. You can still
eagle. So yeah, I didn't slam dunk,
but I put back a layup.
I got my own rebound,
and I won the game.
And that's a fucking golden mic.
And it's number 499, I think.
And that's an unprecedented run.
And you get a goddamn turdy,
because you flashed me.
Now let's move on.
You said, what did you say?
Benedict eggs?
And that's an alley-oop?
That's a putback jam?
That's an eagle?
It's a birdie?
It's a nothing.
It's an absolute nothing. It was off off of do you treason your eggs do you treason your eggs that was nothing i turned it into a fucking almost perfect pun
with benedict eggs gets you the fucking golden mic good i'm actually glad about that
i want you to have it good because that's what it takes now now that i know that that's what it
takes i'm going to be able to fart out about 80 of those next episode if it all it needs to be is as good as benedict eggs by the way trees in your
eggs was me yeah i said trees you gave me nothing i turned it into something that's what how you
turned it into nothing i turned it into something benedict eggs it actually makes a fucking it makes
a lot of sense it's a pretty good pun and i just had the order wrong. I mean, my God.
I didn't order my eggs correctly, you could say.
Not bad.
Eggs, Benedict, Arnold.
That's the joke.
That's the mic.
That's the trophy.
And we can actually play it back if you missed it, because we have it recorded.
No, no, no.
Why is opening someone else's mail so illegal it seems like it should just be like you know frowned upon but everyone knows that it's
such this federal offense like what do you what's the crime there what are you getting punished are
people getting thrown in jail for this thing i don't know i mean it seems like it's it's like
some kind of like sacred holdover law at this
point like the mail system is one of the first things we did when we're like building the country
right like yeah it's it feels like weird um like if this letter is addressed to me that's my
property and you can't open it and if you you do, that's actually, you can go to trial.
The worst thing you could do.
Yeah.
Before murder,
there was only this.
It was just like,
yeah,
he opened by mail and that was the worst thing you could do.
Yeah.
I think it's like,
like back in the day,
there's like,
you have a land deed.
It's like this piece of paper actually shows that I own this land.
So like there,
I feel like there's just like rules like that,
that are tied up in very older like old society uh if you i just look this up if you intentionally open or destroy
someone else's mail you are committing obstruction of correspondence and if found guilty you could
potentially face five years in prison. That's a lot.
My dad has been in prison for four years for shredding my mom's junk mail, actually.
He threw away a coupon pamphlet from Gelson's,
and now he's doing hard time.
And Gelson's wasn't able to correspond with my mother.
He obstructed their correspondence.
And is it the same thing going with email is it illegal to open
up my email my gmail i don't know because i've been opening up well your email a lot what i have
access to it through the the show's email the if i were yourowatgmail.com. Really? They give me backup access to your email.
Interesting.
So I'm able to just sort of play around in there.
Open, delete, archive.
Forward, reply, and yes, reply all.
Reply's ugly cousin.
Really?
Reply Al.
And I've been doing all of that shit.
Let me just check my sent email.
Oh, sorry.

Don't be tacky.
Don't be tacky.
All right.
That's it.
