Alrighty. Welcome back to the Son of a Boy Dad podcast. We're back.
You might be able to tell from the lack of movement and exact same outfits that it is
still January 13th or 14th.
And Survival of Our Stool has,
oh no, that comes out tonight, nevermind.
Nevermind.
Watch the finale tonight, watch the final.
Yeah, we have to, we had to prerecord
because they have to go to Chicago to do the finale, so.
So, you know, blame Portnoy.
Shorten.
Blame Ron and Francis, don't blame me. Don't blame S Noy. Short Noy. Blame Ron and Francis.
Don't blame me.
Don't blame Sass.
Don't blame me.
But we're here and I guess hopefully you enjoyed last episode.
I was at the Eagles game this past weekend and at halftime there was, it was an ultimate
Frisbee All-Star game.
Damn. And it was fucking awesome. Thatbee all-star game. Damn.
And it was fucking awesome.
That is cool.
And these Philly fans were like booing.
Yeah, I'm sure.
Pussies!
I mean, that's one shade above bringing out
the cross-country team to just one-laps.
Which is like maybe two eyebrows
above the Quidditch team coming out.
The all- cross country team.
And just like running laps that like don't even get them sweaty.
The only thing that would cause the Philly faithful to applaud that would be if someone
shit his pants, his tiny little shorts.
Yeah, someone would have to put his shit in your pants in like that short of time of running.
Refusing to get off the
court. I just remembered that I have something that I might have here that
would be really great. Can I go check? You guys talk for two minutes. Sure. It'll
only take two minutes. I'll be right back. Keep talking. Sure. Sure. Sure. You ever
try Ultimate Frisbee? No. Never. Oh actually yeah I guess we did in high
school. In high school it was fun, but we did a video
with the actual Ultimate Frisbee team
and it was very cardio intensive.
Yeah, I got a, when I was in college for my six months,
I went for orientation and I remember I was sitting
at a table by myself and some dude came up to me
and he was like, what's up bro?
Like you look like a cool ass dude.
You look chill.
And I was like, thanks man, you too.
And then he was like,
he was like, I'm a, he's like,
you got any interest in like ultimate frisbee?
And I was like, yeah, I actually,
I do have a lot of interest in that.
And he was like, dude, you gotta come. Like he's like, you should definitely sign up. Like do have a lot of interest in that and he was like dude you got to come like he's like
You he's like you should definitely sign up like we have a blast like he's like we like a ton of parties and stuff
Like like we're like we're pretty much like a fraternity like you should definitely think about like joining up and I was like dude
That sounds great. Like I would definitely do that and I signed up and then a week later
I got an email for the first round of tryouts.
And I was like, I'm never doing that.
So I never, I was like, dude, what do you, tryouts?
I thought this was like a joke.
And then I ended up being friends
with someone that was on the team
and they would like travel every weekend
to like different schools.
What?
And I was like, dude, you made that sound
like it was like a club where we like play like can jam
for a couple of hours a day.
And then like get fucked up after. It was like, club where we like play like can jam for a couple of hours a day and then like
get fucked up after it was like they literally would have like conditioning practices.
Yeah, it's insane. Yeah. It was the guy who was on it. Was he a pretty good athlete? Yeah,
I assume so. The dudes who were playing yesterday were all like not only good athletes, but
like pretty built. Oh, like they could like
kind of climb the ladder they had good verticals actually Effie over here would
probably be a nice ultimate player. I played real sports. No you'd be great at
ultimate and actually that's like the landing spot of a lot of the ultimate
guys who are former I played real sports guys, and then they're like,
I still would like to keep my competitive juices
flowing into my late 20s and mid 30s.
I think it's just one of those things, though,
where I remember the Ultimate kids at school would say, like,
if you, you know, these guys are athletes,
these guys are real athletes,
and I just never remember having to tell anyone that we were real athletes. These guys are real athletes. And I just never remember having to tell anyone that we were real athletes.
Yeah, it's kind of like the those that flag football dude,
who said like, if flag football goes to the Olympics, that he
should be in it over my homes. He was like, my homes just
doesn't understand the mechanics of flag football. And he's the
greatest quarterback in the NFL. So
it's also quarterbacking. Yeah, I'm sure he could probably figure out flag football and he was like, he's the greatest quarterback in the NFL. So it's also quarterbacking. Yeah.
I'm sure he could probably figure out flag football pretty well.
You know, on campus we would, we would walk around with our coat, our jackets.
Yeah.
Your letterman jackets, jackets, and the ultimate guys would walk around with
their swag, which, you know, they had to do a bake sale to raise the money to
embroider their shirts, flipped over cause it was a car wash. Yeah, exactly. You know, so we didn't ours were free. And there's were the result of some
hard work. So ironing a Saturday. Yeah, morning spent doing a 5k. Those are real athletes. Do
you think if ultimate frisbee makes the Olympics, we would have like NFL athletes in there?
Probably not. Because there's mechanics of throwing the Frisbee. Yeah, but
I doubt like if you're in the NFL, you're probably not like looking to pick up more
work in the off season. But an Olympic medal is an Olympic medal. Yeah, the NBA players
like they kind of every other year it's like they're in and then they're out. Yeah, they
decide okay, this year we're gonna do it. But no, but I think NBA is different because it's it's your it's the sport. You're going to the Olympics for the sport. To your point of it, they don't want extra work in the off season. Yeah, now they're training for the Olympics is a big deal. Yeah, I watched the redeem team doc. I did. Yes, I was pretty good. Yeah. I'll never forget that chilling story of them coming home from the club at four
And the five in the morning getting in the elevator and Kobe's going down to the gym. Yeah
Yeah, they're like hey. Yeah, okay
I guess we need to kick it into gear a little here
Is that the one where he's like he's like he's like I'll you party you got I'll party with you guys you come party
with me
Kobe he says like he's like he's like we can go out. He's like I'll'll party with you guys, you come party with me. Kobe?
He says like, he's like, we can go out.
He's like, I'll go out with you guys, I'll drink with you.
He's like, but at 6 a.m., we're gonna be in the gym.
Did he say that?
Yeah.
I didn't even know he did that.
I don't even know he partied.
I think both stories are true.
Yeah.
Oh, that's good.
I'm happy to hear that, that he was a little more balanced.
Well, no, I think he was just kinda proving like,
we're gonna go out.
He says, no matter what you do,
you're gonna be at 6 a.m. workout.
Yeah.
And I'll even go with you to prove how hard I go.
But Kobe was sort of the elder statesman on that team,
and all those younger guys were able
to go out to the club late,
because you can do that at that age.
Yeah.
If you said to me right now,
hey, Fran, you can go out and have two beers with me tonight,
but you have a 7 AM flight tomorrow,
I'd say, I can't.
The anxiety of trying to fall asleep after two beers,
knowing I have to get up at five to be at the airport at six,
can't do it.
And that's for a 7 AM flight, you're
getting to the airport at six?
I guess if you Precheck clear. What was the Delta?
What was the Delta?
Crossover someone messaged me it that they're that they're now making and somebody was like this is right up your guys alley
It's Delta and something else we talked about all the time
What are like the two things we talked about was Delta in something ball?
Delta is on my shitless
Yeah, I heard you're out on Delta. I'm out on I'm out on a mall. I'm like about to
I'm about to hop on like JetBlue or like American Airlines
JetBlue I just flew JetBlue. It was I used to be a big JetBlue guy. I remember that it was but it's falling off
It gets ranked at the bottom now.
Yeah. It's like Southwest is ahead of it. They're always, they're always like rising
and falling. Delta will be at the bottom soon. No, Delta is always at the top. You'll see.
You will see. You know what they should do is they should have, they should have an airline
that is catered towards true, like every seat is luxurious
and comfortable.
They have those.
JSX is one, right?
I've never taken it.
Yeah, I've never taken anything.
But you can't take that from LaGuardia.
Probably got to go to damn Teterboro.
I think they fly out of that Westchester airport.
Oof, which I also don't like.
I've never been there.
Did I ever tell you about when I was in Telluride?
I went to Colorado for like a couple, for like a week,
and then I was with me, Matt and Beau, we're in Denver,
and then I went with Matt back to Telluride
and skied for two days.
And then I had to fly back to New York to do the podcast.
And I'm like, Telluride, you have to take like a shuttle to to do the podcast. And I'm like, tell your ride,
you have to take like a shuttle to get to the airport.
You took off from Texas to EX?
No, from Montrose.
And yeah.
There is one United direct flight
from Montrose to New York today.
So I was flying Montrose to New York.
Direct?
Yes.
Oh, you're saying you took the car shuttle.
I took the car shuttle to Montrose.
Did you do the private black car or did you just do the like-
No, where my buddy lives,
there's just a shuttle that picks up people
Yeah.
like right by the mountain. It's like 28 bucks or something?
Yeah, something like that.
But I got picked up and I'm-
I'm literally going to tell you ride this weekend
and I had to do all the logistics for that group.
Oh, really?
He's definitely doing the private black car though.
Dude, I'm in the car.
Well, it's between four of us.
It's, yeah, anyway. I'm in the shuttle at like 5 a.m. going to the airport
and I'm checking in for the flight.
And I realized that my flight was flying to
the Westchester or wherever, the upstate New York.
Oh no. Yeah.
From Montrose? Yeah.
Direct? Yes.
What airline?
I don't remember
What the fuck and I had to like scramble and change my flight end up having to stay at Montrose for like eight hours
There's not much going on at that air. No, it's literally they don't even have a shot They have like a mom and pop deli. Yeah, like outside of the terminal. You a hoagie. Yeah. Yeah
I live know I got a buffalo chicken sandwich
Yeah kid yeah I got a buffalo chicken sandwich. Yeah, you can get mozzarella fries from a kid. Yeah
But I mean that was just crushing but Westchester is an upstate New York. What was the airport that you just said?
Yeah, Westchester. I think you could call that technically upstate. It's just about but it's like an hour
It's like two hours north. No, it's an hour north of the city an hour north. Then I guess two or
What do you qualify as upstate?
Freaking Yonkers?
No, I'm joking.
I think...
Cats Hills?
Huh?
I guess anything above the Hudson Valley.
Oh, you got to go all the way to north of the Hudson?
You wouldn't call Hudson Valley upstate?
I guess the Hudson Valley is north...
Good, because all this time I've been telling people I'm going upstate.
I think that makes sense.
My place upstate.
Because people will be like, oh, you say like mid-state.
It's like, bro, you're not going to say fucking mid-state.
Right.
Right.
I don't think.
But one time I was flying back from Boston.
We were there shooting something with Pat Bev and he was like, nah, bro, just fucking fly
on the private plane back with me tomorrow.
Because we were going to fly back.
I was just going to take a Delta flight from Boston to LaGuardia,
and I'd be home in fucking 15 minutes from LaGuardia.
He was like, no, bro, I got the fucking private.
And so the private takes off an hour later.
Propellers. Oh, yeah.
Propellers.
One pilot.
It was two pilots.
Not the not the private experience you're expecting.
But it landed in...
We're at like 3000 feet the whole time.
No, but...
And then we landed in Westchester.
And it was like...
We landed in the Hudson.
And then a taxi into a dock.
We water landed.
It was...
There was insane traffic on the Upper West or whatever like all through Harlem
And so it's like two extra hours to get home from there
I wound up getting home four hours after I would have because it's like oh right fine private fucking sick. Yeah, that sucks
The the lady that sat next to me on the plane yesterday was clearly horrified of flying
Just every single time there'd be a bump,
she'd be, like, grabbing onto everything.
Would she ever grab your arm?
No, we were in first class, so we had a large divide
between my arm and her arm.
That's good to hear.
She fully stretched and...
I will say I have had it where a woman was so scared of flying
and we had a little precipitous drop from turbulence,
and she grabbed my arm.
Yeah.
And I liked it.
I felt like I was saving her.
I used to have such bad flight anxiety
that I had to get out of hand for flying.
And I thought about it for a while,
and I was like, no, I can just get over this.
And then I had a flight where I was taking off,
and I grabbed onto the person next to me.
And after that I landed, I called my doctor like immediately.
I was like, I gotta get something.
I was like, I can't keep doing this.
Was it a guy or a girl?
I think it was a girl or it might've been a guy.
I don't remember.
I just remember like I was like,
I fully grabbed onto like their leg.
Imagine if it was a guy.
I think it might've been a guy.
It probably was more likely that it was a
guy than it was a girl. So I think I would have been self aware enough to know that I can't grab onto a girl's
thigh. Yeah, but girls can grab onto our thighs. Yeah. By the way, thigh? You went for thigh?
Dude, I was, I mean, dude, I was freaking out. How high up on the thigh?
I don't remember. It was probably more like knee.
You went north of knee or like knee?
No, I think I was, I was like, I think I was north of me but like barely.
You went, you grabbed the thigh of a man?
Dude, I was in, I was, I thought I was gonna die.
Think about that, he's reaching over.
I was in sheer panic.
Ah!
I would, I'm going maybe shoulder, arm makes a lot of sense.
Dude.
You reached in between his legs.
When you're in the state of panic, there's not a lot that you're not really thinking like,
which part of this person am I gonna grab onto?
Why are you grabbing the guy though? Why not the chair that's bolted in?
Dude, I didn't meet, like I wasn't thinking.
Was he strong?
It wasn't like I made the decision, I'm gonna grab onto this guy.
Was he strong?
I went to grab onto anything and I landed on a man.
Such a crazy instinct.
Yeah, it is.
Was he like someone who you thought was like an authority figure who could keep calm
No, dude
It was literally like I was freaking out and I was like
Yeah, yeah, do you know do you know if he was a dad? No, I don't remember
Did you talk to him after you grabbed his side? No, I don't remember
I don't even remember if it was a guy or a girl. It's a guy
But it was that was my breaking point in which I decided I needed to get prescription drugs.
Yeah, I mean, you know, how do you call your doctor and be like, look, I didn't, I inadvertently fondled the guy next to me.
Yeah, exactly.
I just grabbed him in.
Yeah.
I want to forget everything.
Yeah.
I remember I had my eyes closed and I, and I just felt, I remember I just felt a leg.
Hairy leg.
And I ran, I pulled my arm off immediately and I was like, I'm sorry. I don't know why I just did that
Sorry, I'm freaking out right now
It was always during the takeoff. Yeah. Well, that's when the first 30 seconds are the most likely time to crash, right?
They say the first 30 in the last 30, right?
Except the last 30 makes sense because it's always gonna be the last 30.
I'm gonna be flying into-
That's why you smile at me like that.
Fun little plane joke. Jesus Christ.
We love that one in the flight anxiety community.
I'm flying into Telluride, Colorado's airport.
This is the first time I'm flying into the actual-
That's a rough one.
Into the actual airport of Telluride.
Brace yourself.
It is the number one most dangerous airport
in the country of the United States
Yeah, and I went on reddit and I was like how bad is this bad?
And then the everyone on reddit was like they were all pilots. Yeah advising each other on how to do it
So now I know how to land a plane at telluride Airport. Everyone was like, look, the real issue isn't landing.
It's taking off.
It's taking off.
It's having to like raise your altitude
against the face of the mountain.
Yeah.
Because it's right along the mountain.
It's a really short runway too.
Winds buffeting you left and right.
Yeah.
So.
Flying into that, I've never done it.
My friend has obviously has done it a bunch,
but you can see, like you see planes landing on it
and you're like, dude, it looks like from a distance,
you're like, that looks tight.
It's like that one in Nepal,
where it's downhill and they land.
It's like, somehow it goes downhill on the landing
up in the mountains.
The one you have to land into summit Everest.
Dude, the Telluride one,
you have to wrap around the mountain
and then the face of the mountain will be like on your right
and then your landing,
literally like you're right next to the mountain.
I see that you've spent some time in the Reddit thread too.
Yeah, no, I've just seen it.
Yeah, well from the ski mountain, you see the the runway. Yeah. Yeah, exactly
Mm-hmm, but even landing in Montrose is like a it's a bumpy landing
Yeah, cuz you're you're just flying like I flew from Denver to Montrose and it's like you go up and
Then you just never go down. Yeah, it's not that short. It's not that long But it's like the altitude like tell your eyes so much higher than Denver
You go up and then you're just like right above the mountains and then all of a sudden there's the runway
There's like the descent is like 30 seconds. Did you buy any nice clothes for your app?
I ski dude, honestly, it's a great question. It's a great question. I tried on some
outrageous fits outrageous fits. Outrageous fits.
And I had the guy, Jake, at the store hold them for me.
And I needed to sleep on it.
Jake is already...
I'm not shopping at a store where the guy helping me is named Jake.
Yeah, it was a strange name. Unless he's selling insurance, I think is named Jake. Yeah, it was a strange name.
Unless he's selling insurance, I think he can fucking kick rocks.
It was a strange name.
It felt a little bit probably like a name he adopted.
Mm.
To seem...
If it's like Yakob, I'm buying whatever he's selling.
Yakob Ingebrigtsen.
Yeah, some shit like that.
So Jake's holding your clothes.
Well, he's holding my clothes, the clothes I want, and they're so expensive that I really
needed to sleep on it.
And I thought that what would happen is because the next day I went out drinking, I went and
watched the Saturday wild card games at a bar with some buddies.
Snoozefest of games.
Yeah.
My plan was to get drunk and then go to the store to gather the courage to buy them because
I do better buying initiative
when I've had some drinks.
Yeah.
And somehow I guess I just missed the closing time.
So I texted Jake again and told him to hold him another day
and he went back to work again on Sunday
and this was last night and they were closing at six
and he sent me the payment link and
I tried to fill it out at 554 because he was actually gonna bring me the clothes to my apartment after and
There was an error in the payment link
So I told him to hold him another day
And I'm still thinking about it
So they're just sitting behind the counter where?
Monkler. Soho. Damn. And I'm really torn. I'm really torn. Here's
the Sophie's Choice that we're talking about, right? Am I going to feel worse skiing and having
last year's apres fits or having spent what these clothes cost and being sad that I don't have that.
Having last year's fit, obviously. Obviously you're gonna feel worse if you have last year's fit.
You're not gonna have any new memories because you're, like you will have new memories if you're
wearing good clothes. You'll have some incredible memories. You save the money.
What do you think it raises the enjoyment level by?
Like what percentage?
I have no idea.
Well, I'll frame it for you, Sas.
Like, okay, you're going fishing, right?
Been fishing, same spot, same spot.
But now this time, let's say it's the trip
that you're going on with your buddies.
And you don't even tell them, but you've got a new rod,
you've got new waders, You've got new waders.
You've got top of the line stuff. You've got a new leader. You've got new yarn and new flies,
new hat that you're excited about. And it's all really sick this year stuff. And you throw all
that on and walk down. You're like, they leave the car and go down to the river first.
You're like, guys, I'll be right there.
I just gotta check on something.
And you put on this new fit,
and then you come marching through the trees
and they're in the shallows in last year's fits,
and you're in this new outfit.
That moment.
And the fish kind of all float to the water
with their mouth open.
Yeah, they jump into the net, not even on the fly.
Yeah, I mean, I get it.
How much happier are you?
Honest question, isn't it an increase of 30 to 40%?
Enjoyment?
Your buddies are like, dude, where did you get that?
That stuff's awesome.
They don't even wanna take a picture with you
because you're making them look so gray.
I get it to an extent.
Like when I got like my new bag, when I got my fish pond sling bag, I remember I was pretty
pumped to bang that out in Wyoming.
Yeah.
Like I was like, take a look.
It's the feel.
You can't beat that feel that you have.
If you are an expert surfer, you can ride that wave throughout the entire day.
Also me and my boys, we always been hip-pack guys I
Was the first one to bring out the sling pack?
So it was kind of like I changed the game forever. Yeah. Yeah. I was also the only one that could attach my net to my bag
Because their hip packs don't allow that
But my sling pack, I could comfortably...
I'm so glad that...
Attach my net.
We found common ground on this.
I knew we could get there.
You actually, that was a very deft little move
of including sass and how you felt there with the Montclair.
So based on knowing that,
you think you should buy the Montclair fit?
No.
Why not?
Because it's probably a lot more expensive than my fishpond.
Don't let that be a factor.
Like waiters, like I wouldn't buy new waiters for a trip.
Why not?
Because they're too expensive.
Yeah, but nobody's going to see you.
Your boys damn near aren't even going to see you.
Also, waiter technology hasn't changed in 75 years.
And you're not going even gonna see. Also, wader technology hasn't changed in 75 years. And you're not gonna fuck off of it.
Brother, wader technology is changing second by second.
I mean, how much more waterproof can you get?
So much more.
Is there any waders that have like shearling on the inside?
Cause I remember when we fished in February in that river,
our issue was that our feet got cold.
in that river, our issue was that our feet got cold.
The problem with those waders, I think, was that they had built-in boots.
So like there was, which should be warmer in theory,
but those were rubber boots.
I don't know, I really don't know.
Like my waders, I have,
like they have a tight lining around my foot, which is like a pretty much is like a thick sock
That's waterproof. So that helps with warmth and then you also have socks underneath
Yeah, and then you have a boot on top of it rather than the waiters that we wore in
in upstate it was
It was just a big empty boot and we put our socks and you just had your socks on
But I did like zero warmth my feet were okay. You guys didn't I don't think you double socked it
I don't think you had that you didn't have the ones that were the attachable
The with the boot attached you had what I just described. Oh, okay. You had you had to put on waiting boots
Yes, which is the significantly warmer way. I see.
I just saw a picture of Jeff Bezos in full ski gear. And
they whatever the caption was said that his ski outfit alone costs $10,000. Jesus, it didn't look that cool for $10,000 10
G's. I mean, do 10 G's for him is nada.
I gotta see if I can find a picture of it. Yeah. Like are you wearing new cool stuff to ski in or just afterwards?
No see this is the issue. I mean you know my ski outfit right now, the one I actually ski in, is like seven years old, and it has some rips in it.
What kind of gear are you working with? Spider?
Uh, that gear was juice.
I could definitely see you being a spider guy.
Juice. K-J-U-S.
Jeff Bezos and Aspen wearing a $10,000 Xenia ski suit.
Oh, Xenia's in the game now?
Xenia's in the game.
I'm not familiar.
10,000, does that even look that good? Do You see how it's like baggy around his knees?
I wouldn't have gone
Black or anthracite or whatever this is that he's dealing with.
I would not have gone anthracite.
I would not have gone anthracite either.
Anthracite is on this?
A crazy move.
Can I show you a picture of my outfit that I'm thinking about?
Let me cop a glance real quick.
Let's get you a glance, Sassy. I need to hear your ten cents on this Xenia anthracite.
Maybe we can flash this over the pod so people can know what we're talking about.
This is the fit.
Is that his girl?
Yeah, this is Tom.
This is the fit that I...
Ooh, golly.
I'm sure that's a Sassy.
His girl looks like she needs to zip up or else her breasts might get frostbite.
Hold on, I'm still taking in Bezos.
Are you worried? Are you that worried about her breast?
No, Bezos I would have gone with a little bit of a baggier pant
and maybe a slimmer jacket.
Well, he has to go baggier or he's like in No Man's Land.
Yeah.
He gets baggy and tight.
What do you think of that?
This is what you wear skiing? Yeah you actually wear this while skiing yeah Bezos his knee looks like trash
Yeah, that's not great. What's wrong with this dude's knee and you've already purchased no
I didn't purchase it if I were to purchase it. I would have to go right after we're done here
Race down on a city bike to Soho, grab it, come right back up,
because Ron and I are gonna leave straight for the airport.
Well, look,
I'll say it,
I'm glad you didn't purchase it.
Okay. Why?
Because that fit is trash.
Let me show you.
You know what, I actually like the jacket.
You know what I don't like though?
I don't like when people ski and they have matching pants.
This is the bib, that that is it's a bib
It's sick. Those are the pants bib pants
That's a must-have. I'm not fucking with the pants. If you don't want me to go matchy matchy
I would go I would go black pants and then that jacket that jacket
No, I think what I want to do is pants and then like a black jacket. So that's exactly
Oh, no, I said I said jacket black pants that works. Yeah So that's exactly, oh no, I said jacket, black pants.
Flip it.
That works.
Yeah, that's cool, right?
That works.
I hate the matching.
It looks like you're going on a race.
Yeah, but okay, and then there's another one.
You're waiting to get your competitive bib.
Brown jacket, that's kind of cool too.
Brown jacket, pants.
Brown, that jacket looks a little more casual
than for skiing. Well, what's cool about that is that I could wear it not skiing. Yeah, exactly
Hit me up. This is cool

What are the lobster farms that Red Lobster's
getting their lobster from?
Like, what do those look like?
Is it like the chicken farms?
It's probably very similar to the chicken farms.
Are they like stacked on top of each other, like the chickens?
I don't know.
I really don't know.
You think, which is dumber?
Lobster or chicken?
I actually think lobster are...
Well, they're not that smart.
I would say chicken.
Because the lobster...
Chicken are dumb though.
No, I would say chicken are dumber than lobster.
Oh really?
Yeah.
Lobster can't back out of a trap, right?
Isn't that the case?
I feel like some dogs can't go backwards. Most. Yeah. Lobster can't back out of a trap, right? Isn't that the case? I feel like some dogs can't go backwards.
Most.
Yeah.
They can't even back out of a trap.
A lot of animals can't back out of a trap.
Horses?
I don't know that lobster traps have a door that falls once the lobsters go in.
A lobster trap is like a big...
You just paint a circle on the ground.
It's like a big metal crate and then it has like
Usually right. Oh, no, it is metal and then it has like a
circle
That's a go into the circle and then going through the circle and there's a bunch of net inside
Yeah, that traps them. They have the Chinese lobster trap where I'm both go in one side and you can't pull it right?
I'm sure it's possible for them to get out But I'm sure the only way for those lobsters to get out is if they both go in one side and you can't pull it right and pull them out I'm sure it's possible for them to get out but only way for those lobsters to get out as if they both relax
Yeah, they have to stop fighting, but they don't have that in their DNA. They never do
Yeah, they say if we just pushed our heads together the whole thing would actually cinch off
It's like when the
What are what are the animals where their horns get or I guess like moose rams?
But they're deer there when they're when they're when they're they get hooked on each other
Yeah, and it's like and they die they die because they can't comprehend that like hey if one of us just stays still and I
Just wiggle a little bit like we'd be good. No, we're gonna keep fighting. Yeah, no, this is your fault. Yeah fucking idiot
It's pretty easy. It's got to be pretty uncomfortable tough way to die. Yeah, I'm getting a little confused about bears
Imagine dying just latched on to the first one just in a fight with we've moved on
Can you address what I said?
But imagine imagine if me and you got in a fistfight and then we just had to and like for some reason your fingers
Just got tangled like no, it's like hockey players
Can't let go the we just had to stay there and slowly die looking at each other
Can't let go the we just had to stay there and slowly die looking at each other I feel like this fucking mess would get caught the last person
I want to die looking at is the person that I just got into a full-on brawl when he didn't even kill me
Yeah, it takes so long though. You'd have to find stuff to talk about yeah
I don't even think it takes that long for the animals though cuz they just flail until they die dude
I've always wondered about Aaron Ralston when he was trapped under the rock 127 hours.
And that's a situation where he knew, he knew for a long time, if I don't do something,
if nothing happens, I'm going to die.
And so he went through waves of acceptance, Reflection made videos saying goodbye to his family. That's a very rare thing that someone in you know, Perfect Health is
able to
Say goodbye to everyone and reflect on life and all this
and
It wasn't until he had this like light bulb moment because he budged and he felt
The strain on his bones on his arm that he realized he could leverage his weight step on his own arm break it and then cut it off
Knowing what that movie was about. I have never watched it. I have no interest in watching it
I've never I've zero interest. It's a good movie. The book is really good. I read the book his book
Yeah, I it's too. I'm not even like a claustrophobic person,
but that just freaks me out too much.
The scary part in the book was when he talked about
cutting through the nerves.
Because he said that, you know, he's cutting through his arm
and like by this point, much of his arm has decayed.
So he actually, when he stabs his Leatherman into it,
it lets out a hissing sound and he doesn't hear that.
It doesn't hurt that much. And he's broken the bones, it lets out a hissing sound. And he doesn't hear that.
It doesn't hurt that much.
And he's broken the bones and now he has a lot of adrenaline
and cutting through the arm and the tissue isn't that bad.
The muscle's not that bad.
But then he accidentally brushes one of the nerve fibers.
And it said, he said it was like sent shock waves down his whole body.
So then he decides to save those for last
and he's very careful about avoiding them.
But that cutting through them, he was the hardest part
and worried he was gonna pass out.
Yeah, this is like the worst advertisement
for that book that I could ever get.
Yeah, I think I'm good on this.
Well now you don't need to read it.
I'm never gonna watch that movie ever.
Now you don't need to read it.
I was never gonna read it regardless,
but I definitely won't watch the movie either.
Drinks his own piss.
Drinks his own piss drinks his own piss
That doesn't bother me. Yeah, I've come to terms with that. Yeah, he beat his dick off
He thought about it at least in the movie. He thinks about it, and then he stops well. I have these nerves one last yeah
What else though why did we get on that imagine them finding his body and just say come stay in yeah
What else though? Why did we get on that?
Imagine them finding his body and just say,
come stay next to him.
Yeah.
Dick out of his shorts.
You were talking about bears?
You put the guy's pants up, you were about to say
that you don't trust bears now.
No, it's not that I don't trust them.
I don't understand, because all I see now
are clips of bears and people in the wilds around rivers
where the bear bears are coming near the people and not attacking them at all.
Well bear attacks are pretty rare.
It seems like bears are not as dangerous as everyone said they were.
No, they definitely are.
I think it takes a lot for a bear to fully attack a person are they becoming more?
That they have to be ties and tame to people they have to be but there's also probably so many bears that aren't
Well, it probably depends on where you are like if you're in like if you're in like Yellowstone, I'm sure those bears are somewhat
Used to seeing humans if If you're in like Alaska, there's a chance
that a bear that you come across has never seen a human ever.
Oh, speaking of some sick shit, did you see Grizzly Man?
Yeah.
Right? Did you see it?
Is that the one where the guy dies again?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yes.
So, first of all, the director of that is Werner Herzog, I think, who, whatever, he's a great
director, typically does, like, I think foreign films and random shit.
Anyway, he listens to the audio tape of that guy and his girlfriend getting eaten alive
by the bear.
I think that's proven to be fake. Well, he listens to it from the girlfriend or whatever,
or like someone who has the tape,
and he tells her like, you must never listen to this.
Yeah.
Then, Sick Me went on YouTube.
Me listened to it.
And listened to it.
Yeah, I listened to it too.
It's pretty bad.
It's pretty bad, but I thought someone told me
it wasn't real. Is it real?
The reason I thought it was real is because you can hear
bashing the bear over the head with his pots and pans.
Yeah.
I thought it was real forever.
And then we were talking about this on the Yak a while ago
and someone said that that was fake.
It may be.
I don't know.
If they did fake it, it's a good fake.
Yeah.
They clearly heard the story of how it happened and then recreated that.
Yeah.
That documentary's pretty sick.
But Pots and Pans is a little bit on the nose as far as things that you would use to simulate a struggle.
Well, that's all he had.
Something that makes a bong sound is like a little bit...
Boing!
Boing-oing-oing-oing-oing!
Ouch! Yow! It's fucking Looney Tunes sounds.
Boing!
Yow!
That would be hilarious.
The funniest part of that documentary is when they're interviewing the pilot that used to
drop him off in Alaska.
And he's like, he's like, yeah, I was honestly I was surprised at how long he lasted out
there.
Uh, to be completely honest, I think the bears thought he was retarded or something.
So they've let him, so they let him live for a while.
He says exactly that.
He says he thought the bear thought he was sick?
No, he says he thinks, the pilot who used to drop him off
every summer says that the bears thought that the guy
was retarded and that's why they never killed him.
And finally the bear that does is so starved and sick that he's like, fuck it, I'll eat
him.
Yeah.
I'm eating the retard.
The rest of them are like, no, come on, man.
Let him be.
The whole time of them like, yeah.
We have a code.
It's such a crazy thing to say about someone after they die.
Like after they died in a brutal bear attack and be like, well, I mean, I'm just shocked
that he lasted that long. The bears thought he was retarded the bears have an
understanding of what like read human retardation yeah and be like we really
should it yeah it's uncouth let him have a basket at the end of the game. Let him shoot a three pointer.
That's so fucking ridiculous.
The pilot assumed that.
Good on them though, classic flick.
You've been to Alaska, right?
No.
Oh, you should go.
You gotta go, bro.
Oh, you'll love it little bro.
Dude, it's so good.
I wanna go, but I Oh, you'll love it little bro. Dude, it's so good. I want to go, but I don't want, I want to wait until I'm, uh, have enough money that I can go like and actually go, like go out far.
Why does that?
Cause I don't want to go and just go to what's it called Anchorage and go to like, I want to go, I want to, yeah, I want to go like take a Cessna and go to like one of those lodges that are like in the middle of you
I don't think that's as much as you think I think it's like ten thousand dollars maybe
So one that the one that Bo worked out was ten thousand dollars a week. Oh
You per person. Oh, oh for the lodge. Yeah to stay there. I
Think you would justify that I think this summer that's doable. No, I know that you have that money
But even if I have money to do that my friends don't so you're not gonna go
I'm not gonna go by myself. Would you not subsidize them? I could subsidize them, but I'm not I can't spend
$40,000 on a vacation on just the housing part. Why don't you just bring Peters and Bo?
You're gonna bring Nate too?
If I'm bringing all of my friends,
that's a ridiculous amount of money.
Peters, Bo, and Nate, you're gonna bring all of them.
Ideally, we would all go.
I'm not in this plan.
But is Nate even, does he even want to do that?
Yeah, I would assume so.
I think there's the core three.
You, Peters, and Bo.
No, no, no, no, Nate is in the core. and then Nate's kind of a bubble guy. No, you're wrong
You and Nate are just had there. They're the two farthest in the friend group from each other
They're like, you know, you're you're completely wrong and like Bo and I've been hearing a lot about Nate lately
I think he's kind of like had a big year. No
Totally wrong
year. No, totally wrong. I've been hearing less about Peter. Nate's been, I've been friends with Nate longer than I've been friends with Peters. So you're growing
apart? No. That makes the most sense. No, not at all. I was playing video games
with Nate last night. No, yeah, but we're saying you and Peters grew apart because
Peters you don't talk about anymore. I played video games with Peters last
night too. Where's Bo? Is it Bo who got played video games with the Peters last night too.
So where's Bo? Is it Bo who got bumped out?
Bo's in Spain right now.
Yeah, so all of his travel is kind of worn away a little bit.
Yeah, Bo's out.
So that's why Nate got the call-ups.
Right.
Because Bo's on the IR.
Right.
Got it.
Bo got nixed.
Now Bo wants us all to go to Spain and visit him. I would. Yeah, we're thinking about it. Bo got nixed. Now Bo wants us to, uh, Bo wants us all to go to Spain and visit him.
I would.
Yeah, we're thinking about it.
No, I think all of us should go.
We could all go to-
You guys aren't going?
Why not?
You're not invited.
You can't stop us from going-
You guys are simply just not invited.
You can't stop us from going to Spain.
I was actually considering, I might, I think I might go to Telluride this weekend and sabotage your trip.
Dude, if you came to Telluride this weekend, it would be the best thing of all fucking time
It would be pretty so happy that you were coming cuz I was thinking about it. I don't have anything this week
You want to come I have spots. I'm not even kidding you. We have a bunk room that has extra beds in it
I wouldn't need the I wouldn't need the bunk room. I would say that's
I'm saying we have extra beds. We have blow up mattresses to the guys are staying need the bunk room, I would stay at Matt's. That's so disrespectful. I'm saying we have extra beds.
We have a blow up mattress.
Two of the guys are staying in the bunk room.
You can stay there.
I don't want to stay in the bunk room with two of the guys.
Where the girls stay.
I don't know your guys, because the thing is I don't know your boys.
They're good guys, they're good guys. This is a really fun group.
Really good group.
Was one of them the dude that I've met?
I don't, how many of my friends-
The guy in Wisconsin, the only one that I've ever met.
Oh no, not that guy.
Not him?
Mm-hmm.
No.
He's good people.
This is really good people.
Weirdly, Francis' friends are the biggest mystery.
Yeah, I know, they are.
Because I feel like you both have met a decent amount of my friends.
Yep.
I've met a couple of your friends.
I've got two Johns, a Matt, and I've got Wiley. I've only met one of your friends. I've got two John's a Matt and I've got Wiley
I've only met one of your friends Ben Ben. Yeah, I
Guess I've only met one of your or not. Ben Ben was hilarious Ben and MOOC going out together. I was so funny
Dude, I genuinely think MOOC might be like the funniest person I've ever met
Everything he does is like I die laughing.
Like what?
Just everything he does.
What did he do in Minnesota that that's an example of this?
Just like like like laying in bed where like where our rooms are right next to each other
and we're talking about like he had to go get food and then like, his food foraging is crazy.
It's crazy.
And then I hear his door, it's like 1 a.m.
and I hear his door open and close
and I'm like, he's going down for snacks.
He's going, he's going out.
He's going hunting.
I'm laying in my bed just howling, laughing.
You know it.
If he doesn't get to bed at a certain time, then he's going to 7-Eleven or Burger King.
I heard the door close and I texted him and I was like, I was like, you going for snacks?
And then he said, uh, let me see what he said.
Has he texted something hilarious?
Let me see what he said. Has he texted something hilarious? Let me see.
Oh yeah, I go, you going for snacks?
And he goes, one step ahead.
And then he goes, Wendy's forgot half my order.
And then he replied like five minutes later and he goes,
he goes, the M&M cookie and cream sandwich, life changing.
He goes, the M&M cookie and cream sandwich, life changing. Why is he like that?
What do you mean?
Why is he-
He doesn't think ahead.
Well, I mean, I do the same thing.
Like I had pizza that I got for lunch that I had left over and I took all that down and
then I went down and got snacks after Moot got snacks.
Oh, you went after he came back? After he came. I went one a.m. Run. Yeah, I
Can't believe you have diarrhea. I
Didn't have diarrhea from that. Where'd you have it from the pasta?
Okay, very enough gluten, which is also a mook decision, but I guess pizza is gluten as well
And yeah, mostly pizza is gluten. Yeah, it's only good. Yeah
So maybe it was that I don't know like a real like a real like creamy There's gluten in pizza. Yeah, mostly pizza is gluten. Yeah, it's only gluten. Yeah.
So maybe it was that. I don't know, like a real like, a real like, creamy, saucy pasta fucks my stomach up.
And I think that probably fucks up a lot of people's stomachs.
I don't think I'm the only one.
I think you just genuinely enjoy Mook's friendship because you were just like,
Mook does the funniest shit ever.
And we're like, what's like an example?
And you're like, he got a snack.
Yeah, just like watching him operate is so funny. Mook does the funniest shit ever. And we're like, what's an example? And you're like, he got a snack. Yeah.
Just watching him operate is so funny.
What's funny about it?
It's just funny.
It just cracks me up.
When we were all in Denver last year, Sass stayed with Peters and Bowe.
This was before Nate had kind of like worked in and
That when you and Mooc were
Mooc and I stayed together. I think have I told this story
the toothpaste story
Mooc comes over he's like dude, can I borrow some toothpaste and I was like I can't do this
There's a first night
He'd like borrowed my toothpaste and then I took my toothpaste and took a knife and cut off
And cut off a bunch of it so that I would have not not bristles from mook all staining the last part
Oh
my god Remember not bristles from MOOC all staining the last part.
Oh my God. I just remember being in the green room
and MOOC being on stage, or you being on stage
and MOOC being like, last night I asked Francis
if I could use his toothpaste.
And he said to me, he was like,
dude, this isn't a fraternity.
Is it?
Is it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. fraternity we've definitely told that story before but it's so funny just the
idea of mook and Francis having to stay together so funny I went into his room
the next morning probably like you know 10 a.m. and like he was still kind of asleep and he had Burger King rappers on his bedside table
Like he fell asleep and his arm managed to like put the last
Bite down. It's funny to me cuz it's like I do the exact same thing
So it's funny to imagine like that. It's just funny picturing him doing the exact same
He eats himself to sleep. That's what I do too. That's crazy.
Yeah.
So does Fidelberg does that.
Have you ever heard Fidelberg's nighttime routine?
I haven't, but at this point, I don't know how much I believe him on some of that stuff
anymore.
I'm sure he used to, but he is so fit now that I can't fathom that Fidelberg is falling
asleep in Burger King.
I think he just works out like insane. Yeah.
But dude, Fidelberg has told me that his nighttime routine is he smokes as much weed as he possibly
can and then he stuffs as much food into his body as possible.
And then at the last bite as the food is going in his mouth. He's putting the mouth tape over his mouth
Like like finishing the food mouth tape high as fuck and then just passes out immediately
Brushes teeth before I don't know. I don't know sounds like someone I would actually want a room with
But he literally like locks the door behind him. It's like the fucking
Star Wars closing of the gates as they fly out.
Yeah, I was gonna say those packed Japanese train cars or maybe it's like North Korea or maybe it's South Korea
Where they there's like someone who just physically stuffs people in. Yeah, then the doors closed. That's the mouth tape. So funny. That is preposterous
We had a pretty good weekend though in Bloomington.
I mean, it was, it was, it felt like, I don't know why it felt so busy.
It felt like we were just nonstop moving, even though we really were just doing the
shows.
The shows, I will say like, remember when we did Wisconsin and we, and we were like,
this is work?
Friday morning, I was like, it feels like I've been here for a week. Yeah, this is work. Friday morning, I was like,
it feels like I've been here for a week.
Yeah, I get that.
But the shows were good.
There was only one, the Saturday early show was like,
whoa, Saturday early show was packed.
And it was all, there was like a couple people there
to see me, but it was mostly very old people from the mall.
And I saw, it was me, Mook, and Aidan McCluskey,
who I don't know if he's done our podcast, has he?
Did he come on ours?
I'm not sure.
He did, I know he did Anis and he did the Yak,
and we did one of those with him.
Yeah, I'm not sure.
I think you've met him.
I think so.
But he's hilarious.
That sounds like a football player's name.
Aiden McCluskey?
Yeah.
He's like five, five, like a hundred pounds, so not quite.
Sounds like a Detroit Lion to me.
But he's hilarious, he's so funny
and he's really good at standup.
And so I saw Mook and him go up
and both of them did not do well.
And I was like, all right, so clearly this is gonna be a terrible time. And I got up on stage and both of them did not do well. And I was like, all right,
so clearly this is gonna be a terrible time.
And I got up on stage and I told them when I got off stage,
I was like, I don't think I've ever been,
I don't think I've ever been more calm on stage
than I was that entire set.
Like the whole set, it was literally like,
I felt like I was a monk.
I was just up there, I was like, nothing was working.
Like all the jokes are bombing
and I was up there just completely taking it.
Just being like, yup, this is this is going to be the show.
Did you acknowledge it?
I acknowledged it a couple of times.
I was like, I'm giving you guys exactly what you're giving me.
I was like, we're trading off here.
That's funny. Yeah.
Like, I mean, because like I would make a joke and like there was these two
dude, two older men in the front who were like with their wives.
And they like,
I would look at one of them, I would make a joke.
One of them would laugh and then they would look at the other one and he wouldn't be laughing.
And then the other one would immediately stop laughing and vice versa.
Like there was like a competition to see who could not laugh.
Like they, like they hated me so much that like when they would laugh, there was like shame towards the laugh.
How were the wives? Were they laughing?
They laughed.
Okay.
It wasn't like I obviously I'm exaggerating it wasn't like a fucking everything like it
worked but it wasn't like what you want as a comedian.
It wasn't like an O'Malley show.
It wasn't an O'Malley show.
You weren't getting the explosive laughs that you want.
You didn't get the key to the city
I know now but the show after that was great had a blast
The shows overall the shows were actually very I was expecting it because that club is is notoriously
Not great because you have the fishing gear. Did you wear that on stage? I did exactly land of a thousand lakes
Yeah, but overall the shows were the shows were actually pretty fun. Pretty solid weekend.
Nice.

When did the crew neck sweatshirt come out?
I don't know.
It had to be like 1845.
Probably.
I'd imagine the crew neck was before the hoodie.
As I'd assume the hoodie forever was just the jacket.
Right?
No, I think that's probably a spot on guess.
Yeah, that's spot on.
Wow.
What about the hoodie?
Do not tell me it's gonna be in like the 17.
T-shirt 1932, crew neck 1939.
So what were fools doing in like 1920?
They were wearing like bloomers.
Or like full suits.
Shirts with ruffles.
Like you're telling me in World War I No one was rocking a fucking t-shirt
That just can't be true no one just had no one had like a Hanes white t-shirt on under a fucking
Under their military uniform. That is a good point. They didn't have cotton
They didn't have the fabric of our lives
To have had a t-shirt you ever watch ever watch the newer All Quiet on the Western Front
now? I've heard it's really good. I've heard it's super dark. It's so dark and so dreary.
Yeah, aren't they wearing t-shirts at the beginning of that? There's no t-shirts in
All Quiet on the Western Front. Believe it or not, actually, the wife beater came first.
They made them for World War I.
That's interesting.
We have nothing to fight in.
So the hoodie had to have come,
I think the hoodie didn't come out
until like the seventies or the eighties.
No, that's not true.
Yeah.
What?
For now, makes sense.
Yeah, cause it's like, it's a little warmer there.
You don't need the full jacket.
So why not just go hoodie?
Rochester.
Knickerbocker Knitting Company,
which eventually became the brand champion.
Come again there with that first word?
Knickerbocker.
Bro, you can't say that.
What does it sound like to you?
It sounds like the N word.
Well, it's the K word, brother.
Yeah.
But that eventually became the brand champion.
So the champion hoodie is the original hoodie.
Oh, cool.
That's cool.
Champion had a major resurgence.
They did, yeah.
It became cool again.
Yeah, they did.
That's like the most, people love bringing up that topic.
How Champion, they're like,
I used to buy nine dollar crewnecks at Walmart for Champion.
And now people are like like and now you go
They're six hundred dollars for champion
Yeah, but you know what dude the people who complain about that are the ones who made it happen. Yeah
It's like if you hadn't been buying the nine dollar crewnecks
We wouldn't have made it
Cool. Yeah
We wouldn't have made it cool. Yeah.
It's because you were a leading fashion person.
You were ahead of the game.
We all saw you doing it.
It was cool.
And then we all wanted champion.
Yeah.
And you were also wearing New Balance.
And we all then said, oh, those look cool.
That guy says it's cool.
And now you're mad that New Balance is everywhere.
Yeah.
I used to wear the nine9 crewnecks from Walmart.
They were great.
What's a brand?
What are other brands where this has happened?
Nike.
Oh, Abercrombie and Fitch.
Abercrombie and Fitch has had this gigantic renaissance.
Really?
And people love to talk about it.
People are wearing Abercrombie and Fitch now?
Bro, it's like one of the hottest, coolest.
I thought that was like, I knew Abercrombie and Fitch was big when I was younger.
Yes, of course.
And back then it was pop collars,
Pukashell necklaces, some shirtless hunk at the front,
wearing tons of cologne.
Yeah.
And then that went away
and it kind of went under for a while.
They made a documentary about how they were racist.
Yeah.
And then the brand, I don't know, it was probably bought by some
private equity firm with some forward thinking guy, who then
said, we're going to roll this back out as like an Americana
lifestyle brand, but with a better ear to what's coming
around the corner from fashion, which is like workwear and, you
know, heavier pants and work trousers and chunky stuff and
boxy stuff and also I think their secret is micro plastics.
I think that Abercrombie is one of the league leaders in micro plastics per piece of clothing.
They put it in their pants?
It's in everything and I think it gives their a little bit more heft to some of their stuff.
I think you're just wearing plastic.
I appreciate it though.
I love it.
I love a little heft.
I love a little bit of plastic.
It drives me like a fucking Lego bro.
I don't care.
That's what I want.
A fucking full Lego shirt.
In my dream world everyone's just got a box on.
Can't tell what anyone's body looks like.
It drives me like Bezos at the mountain.
Yeah. That's nice. I think that it removes some of the
necessity of
Individuality and the pressure to stand out with how you're dressing just get everybody in the same boxed Lego clothing
I only wear boxed clothing
like I can't wear like people when they're like they're like they they show like a
Like one of those like true cuts
or those shirts that they're always sponsored on Instagram.
And they're like, this shirt's great,
it's so, oh my God, feel how soft it is.
So soft.
Not for me.
I don't want any soft clothes.
I don't want shirts that are like sticking
to every crease in my stomach.
It like hugs the bicep.
You know what I'm saying? I don't want my biceps hugged. The titty. Yeah, yeah hugs the bicep. Yeah, yeah. You know what else hugs?
I don't want my biceps hugged.
The titty.
Yeah, yeah.
My bicep doesn't like hugs.
I want the loosest possible sleeve on the bicep.
I do not want my bicep being highlighted in any way.
Maybe just cover up the whole bicep.
Yeah.
Let's go back to the three quarter length baseball shirt.
That's literally what I get, the Uniqlo shirts
that go down to the elbow.
Softball shirts?
Yeah.
Wait, so let me ask you this.
One time when we were in Wisconsin,
I took mook shopping.
Yeah.
And then you joined us at that store,
which is a great store.
Great store.
Any store that has a dog in it is a good store.
And I bought him a shirt. You did, yeah. Do you know if he still has that shirt? I have never seen
him wear that shirt. I was worried about that. You got him a shirt to like elevate his fashion sense?
I will say I believe he did say I'm never gonna wear this shirt when you were buying it for him.
That's not true. Oh what was the shirt like? That's not true. It was a flannel, I believe.
Should I call him?
Yeah.
This is pissing me off.
What color flannel?
I don't remember.
I think it was blue.
Don't say, did you wear it?
No, it was like red.
Say when was the last time you wore it.
OK.
You give your toothpaste to someone, buy them a shirt.
This is Ellis.
Hi Connor.
Hey, what's up dude?
How are you?
Good, how are you doing?
I'm well thanks.
I'm here with Rhone and Sass
who are recording Son of a Boy Dad.
What's up boys?
Sup brother.
The question everyone was wondering is,
when was the last time you wore that shirt
that I bought you in Wisconsin?
So I wore it to a wedding rehearsal in April of 2024.
And then I wore it again on a date this fall.
Wow.
So it's getting used.
That's pretty infrequent, my friend.
That's actually not that bad.
It's on formal occasions, you know.
Is that the fanciest shirt you have?
Yes.
It's a flannel.
Yeah, it's like, you know,
if I'm feeling fancy,
I pull it out. It's not really like an everyday
for me, you know, I like sweatshirts.
Right, right, okay.
Alright, well that's good because
How was the date? Did it work on the date? How'd the date go? Did she like the shirt?
She made a point of letting that be known
Yo fuck her dude
Good Fuck her dude. Yeah, we broke things off good
But here's the thing. I promise you next road day we do I'll wear it on stage for you. No, don't don't
Don't patronize me. Oh, that was the issue you were too overweight for it
So that's why you haven't been wearing it because of all the Burger King you eat at two in the morning. Oh, yeah. I had a Burger King weekend this weekend, man.
You would have been disgusted.
I'm always disgusted in you.
Well, thank you, Connor.
Great to talk to you, brother. We'll see you soon.
All right. Can't wait to see you in Chicago.
You too. Bye.
All right. Wait, so you got the redheaded bro a red shirt?
He was the one he wanted.
It wasn't the one I was guiding him towards.
Getting a redheaded guy a red is uh, I don't wear red
I stay very far away from red. I know it's red on red
You know what's something that's all I just completely forgot about that was bizarre that MOOC did this weekend
He didn't bring a jacket and he had some sort of reasoning as to why he did it like some explanation is like
Like I yeah, I don't I just didn't think like to fucking Minnesota in January
Call him up sassy. Why did it was zero degrees outside? Yeah?
Did you think he was gonna buy one there? No, did he buy one? No, it's just what the whole week
Freezing they were multiple sweatshirts. No, they wear the sweatshirt on stage
Yeah, so we just got to the club and didn't take anything off?
No.
What?
God damn dude.
I mean dude, it was so cold there.
Yeah, it's cold.
What a goofy bastard.
It also snowed the entire time.
It never once said it was gonna snow
and it snowed consistently the entire weekend.
It's like being in Ireland with rain.
Yeah.
There's no rain forecast. It's just assume in, you know, Ireland with rain. There's no rain forecast. Just assume it's coming.
Minneapolis, Loki has their own cuisine like a country like Scotland does. They have
hot dish. My manager was telling me about some place where they sell like, they sell like some
restaurant where they have, like, they sell like some restaurant where they have
Like they sell like or it's just like Native American foods
What's that? I don't know he sent me the link. Human being?
No, he said it was like weird dishes with like popcorn in it and shit. Yeah, but he said it was cool I didn't go. Orville Redenbacher was...
thigh of man thigh of man with popcorn?
Au jus?
It was called Awamni.
Awamni sounds amazing.
I really think that they have their own food cornered up there.
Hot dish was ridiculous.
What's hot dish?
It's like a casserole, and there's like different types of it.
It's the nation's first indigenous restaurant.
Oh, that's cool.
It can't be the first.
Well, nation's first indigenous restaurant chef by white man.
First is like that's more racist than having,
than not having an indigenous restaurant.
We're actually the first ones to cook Native American food here. It does look like a lot of Native Americans working there.
They've all got long ponytails.
Rated.
Hot Dish is a hearty casserole-like dish originating in the upper Midwest, particularly popular
in Minnesota. And it looks like ground beef with corn, carrots and peas,
and tater tots crusting the top of it.
That does not look good.
No, it doesn't look very good.
Looks like, yeah.
Almost looks aggressively bad.
Soup kitchen-y.
But of course course soup kitchens
All right the integral part of the
Country everyone should volunteer
How are we out on time
You guys ever react like such a piece of shit for like a period of time that you feel like you need to start volunteering
Now but I did help someone get their bag down on the plane yesterday.
Oh.
And it was actually, it was a little bit of a trade-off, let's say. I did something that I
actually hate when people do, but I had to do it.
You grabbed her thigh.
I grabbed her thigh. No, there was a lady sitting next to me and I said,
you have a phone charger that I could use.
Because I'm trying to watch the Bills Broncos game right now
and I do not have a phone charger with me.
That's like forgetting your jacket.
And luckily, like I said, this was someone that is clearly not good in the air,
so she was like ready to go.
She was like, oh, of course, and she pulls out this like massive portable charger
And he would do to charge my phone to 60% in like 10 minutes from zero
It was incredible and then at the end of the flight
I helped her get her bag down and she said you she had you earned your you earned your charge
Did you watch the game on your phone?
So I watched, I tried, the Wi-Fi was, I did a Wi-Fi speed test in the air, 0.12 mbps,
which is zero.
That means that the Wi-Fi literally does not exist.
But I was able to pull up on ESPN, like a live play-by-play so I read most of the game Like I read like James Cook just took off for a 40-yard touchdown and I was like fuck yeah
And then and then I and then I got the Wi-Fi went up a little bit and I got enough to the point that I could
Listen on the ES on the NFL network app
You can get the option to watch like the national broadcast or you can listen
Yeah, it gives you all the stations that you can listen on and you're moving through the like genesis of technology. Yeah sports
Yes, I I
Am a morse code Chicago Black Sox
Beat down the sender of Padres score this
Josh out and has got a touchdown. Yeah, I listened to the local Buffalo broadcast which was actually awesome.
It is way more fun. It's because they're fired up. Yeah, they're screaming.
They're like, because it was the play where it was fourth and one and Josh Allen had like no one to go to and then somehow
he ended up making it into a touchdown where it looks like it was gonna be a dead play and they're gonna turn over on
downs. Yeah. And they were like, this is
incredible! like it was gonna be a dead play and they're gonna turn over on downs. Yeah, and they were like this is
And then I lost Wi-Fi like five minutes later and then I just was but at that point they were already up so much I was like, I assume the bills won the game
Yeah, it was a shellacking. Yeah
Yeah, I was listening to the commanders local broadcast driving back from the Eagles game and they were going fucking nuts
That was a I mean that was an unreal game
We needed one classic. That's a play. That's playoff football. That's what we're looking for
Next week will be great tonight should be decent. Well, that's I mean this comes out on Thursday. That's already out
So we can't even do our parlay. I know we're gonna have to do like a dendem Or should we just do our parlay and assume that the Vikings won?
Skull skull
But I don't think we can do that because actually I think there's probably a good chance that the Vikings didn't win
But if they did it that either team plays the Eagles also our parlay this week isn't really money that valuable because there aren't that
many games
Let's just take a week off. That is true. That is very true. We'll put it together and we'll put it on our socials. Yeah, that's a good thought.
Let's do that. I won a lot of bets yesterday. Big day. Did you guys see Gilly running out
with a team? It was incredible. He led the charge. Wow. I couldn't believe it. It was insane.
And he brought his neighbor
He brought the old white dude, did you see that
Yeah, I Know he didn't bring his neighbor, bro. No, I swear to God. Did you see it?
I know neighbor is just a pseudonym for another n-word, bro
No, dude
He they when he pulled up to the game they had the car and he had his small friend in the eagle outfit and then they had the old dude with the broom
dances
Oh my god
He's so fucking demonstrative
He's a demonstrative brother never turns it off either. He's just always yeah, he doesn't even know cameras on him
I guess there's a microphone right there
Are they all fans of his
The Eagles yeah, yeah, I mean that's AJ Brown right and he fucking
went face to face with him adapt him up so funny it's cool I got to get to that
status who would you run out the bills now the Patriots me and fucking variable
chest bumping you're like I saw it oh that's sick that one didn't even make it even though they didn't even tag me on the bar so Instagram even though Langone promised
It breaks my heart not Langone after especially after Penn State lost
hmm sad
Blowout that was okay. Yeah, what are you talking about blow? I hit all my college football bets too. Wasn't a blowout. I had everyone.
You didn't even have your card, bro.
Placed my bets before I went to Minnesota.
Can't bet up there?
Nope.
Damn, damn, damn.
Well yeah, we'll put it out in parlay.
Yeah, come check me out in DC.

Who did?
Someone.
His business manager for a small fee.
Do you have to pay? One rent rent payment does it cost money to?
To operate on that. I don't think it does
That's why it's crazy that you're everybody just does that and then you pay
Neither here nor there brought for my own customized website. My website's great. We have a blast over there how many
Uniques you get? A lot of
uniques. Yeah. What about time spent? A weird amount. I mean,
pay 45 minutes average. Did you see the clip of laundry day
playing the halftime show at the Knicks game? I did not know
and they were singing a song you know you need unique New
York. Yeah, sounds like and our buddy was singing the guy the
lead singer was just singing it over and over and he didn't fuck up once and I was watching it and I was
getting nervous because I didn't try to do it. I didn't get it right a single time. I
don't think I could do that in front of that many people and not flub it. If you practiced.
Yeah, maybe. Only way to get to Carnegie Hall boys.. Truth. Alright. To a Jewish controlled media. Was over, still, still underground
So, I looked older, till you came around I was only falling one way

I was only falling my way
I was only falling my way
Fetish drew your eye
Did you realize? No one can take me alive
I was only falling one way See you just a distant light, being fast forever bright, call it just a memory, take my hand and you can see I'm home Oh I'm falling, I'm falling
Vanished to your earth
Did you realize Realize No one can take me alive
