Wow. Still to this day, there are no planned topics.

We literally just press record and then go. We like say, hey, it's not like we distance ourselves before the podcast. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Save it for the podcast, buddy. We're not allowed to communicate for three days before the podcast. Save it for the episodes. Call me up like, dude, Lego's in the emergency clinic. Ryan, save it for the podcast, dude.

Hang up on you. That would be so good. I don't want to hear anymore. No, no, no. I need my reaction to be genuine. Stop, stop, stop. Calling me that like your father was in a horrible car accident. Ryan, stop, dude.

Save it for the, we're not supposed to be talking right now. Save it for the podcast. Lego got in a car accident. He got in my car and took it down the block i don't know if i sent it to you it's a video of um these guys on the like the freeway and they're like yo there's no one in this car dude look and they pull up next to this tesla and there's just a dog with like the window open. It's a smaller dog. Yeah. And there's like no one in the car.

And they're like, what the fuck? Because they're summoning their Tesla. Someone's summoning the Tesla and the dog's there alone with an open window. I thought that the summon feature was like basically like, oh, if it's in a parking lot, like a little bit far away. I didn't know it would actually like drive it down the freeway to you. Is that safe? No, I don't. Like summon your.

I mean, if. They allow it to happen. like drive it down the freeway to you is that safe no i don't like summon your i mean if they allow it to happen so is it is it like it's not breaking any laws to summon your tesla no i i don't know is it i don't know what laws are with like computers driving for you but i mean there's fully automated cars on the road like the there's that weird delivery thing that they test out yeah wait well i remember like back when was it it was this like delivery bot and then like someone just ended up like destroying it and trashing it got him kind of like that a hitchhiking bot or whatever hitchhitchhiking bot. That got mugged in Philadelphia. Oh, was it like a bot that was hitchhiking? Yeah, it was just like, take me to a new place.

And like people were just like taking it from, I don't know, Canada or some shit like that. And it ended up all the way in Philly and then it just got mugged. Legitimately. Give us that money, boy. Look up, look up. That's hilarious. Hitchhiking bot Philly. Hitchhiking Bot Philly, bro. Who would mug a sweet little AI robot?

Hitchbot, the hitchhiking robot, gets beheaded in Philadelphia. The way that they word that sounds like it was captured by the Islamic State and fucking like beheaded on camera. Hitchbot. Here's a Wikipedia article for it. Man, rest in peace. It was a Canadian hitchhiking robot. Okay, so I was right. Why would someone, when it was stripped and decapitated in Philadelphia.

The 2015 attempt to hitchhike across the United States ended when it was stripped and decapitated in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. People took it in their cars and shit. It was just legitimately, it quite literally is the hitchhiking robot. Strangers would pick it up on the side of the road and shit. And it made it all the way to Philly. I thought it was going to look a lot more professional. Or like, like a team of researchers made it.

It looks like like a, like a someone with schizophrenia that lives in like a hoarding house made a friend for themself out of like

junk and garbage. Like, look at that. I think it looks, I know, I think he looks adorable. He has like fucking kitchen sink gloves on and shit.

Yeah. That's why it's, and like, there's marker all over it. That's why it looks like someone just They wanted to yeah that's why it's and like there's marker all over it that's why it looks like someone wanted to make them friendly so it's not like hey i'm gonna spy on that doesn't look friendly that looks scary i think that looks like a fun guy a fun time you bring him to a bar that's true everyone's gonna want to talk to him all the ladies are gonna want to talk to you today it's speaking of ladies talking to us today today is officially officially my first day of my uh intensive health training stuff but i don't really want to talk

about that because you know what they say they say don't you brought it up well they well they say you brought it up i know obviously well i brought it up and then i instantly realized that i don't want to talk about it because you know what? You know, they say when you start a new habit or something, don't tell people. Tell people two weeks after. Because you haven't really started that. Right, right. And then you look like a dang fool if I say, oh, I'm starting. And then tonight I'm smoking.

Well, we already have told people that we're like, we're like, we're trying to look after our health more. Today's, yeah, I didn't, I haven't been doing a lot for that, especially because of the holidays. Excuses, excuses, but today's the first day. Yeah, I went and got COVID, so that put me out for a few days. You know, I was still eating junk food, drinking alcohol, vaping. I was like, I went to Miabi's one day. I'm trying to stay away from bread for the most part,

but all of a sudden, my friend came back home with Lil Debbie's. Lil Debbie, she tempted you, man. He ordered an Instacart order, and all of a sudden, he comes in from the front door, and there's several boxes of different little debbies. Which ones? There was the Christmas trees.

The like zebra cake Christmas trees? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Fuck, that's dangerous, man. There were the cosmic brownies, zebra cakes, Swiss rolls. Oh, dude, those are all the good ones, man. We had the pecan little fucking pinwheels. I don't like those. Oh, I love those. They're too dry. Oh, I love those are all the good ones, man. We had the pecan little fucking pinwheels. I don't like those.

Oh, I love those. They're too dry. Oh, I love them so much. The center is a little bit like sticky, but. Those are nostalgic for me. I remember every now and then, it wouldn't be all the time, but every now and then, because I would switch off, you know, mom one week, dad one week. You know, once in a blue moon, I go into the kitchen,

and on top of like the the area where like a toaster oven or a toaster would be there would be a little like thing of pinwheels that's where they put the box dude yeah that is i know exactly what you're talking about and you have to savor them because like my dad's eating them and i'm eating them and we you ain't getting them at home no me and my me and my dad can snack yeah yeah we're the and also you know we're the snacks that smile back yeah you are i see you in a pinwheel with a big old grin on your face same with same with your daddy hell yeah boys sitting by the lake together crunching on some little debbie big smiles on your face wheels he's pushing me on like a tire swing.

Can I have another pinwheel? I think we just ran out. Wait a second. What's that behind your ear? A whole other box. He puts one in his mouth and he pushes you on the rope swing and when you come back you have to like take a bite out of it out of his mouth.

But you're just not close enough. My feet are fluttering. Swinging, trying to build momentum. I don't know what this action would be like. My legs are clawing at the air. It's like how you would be swimming, but you're in the air. You're not gyrating. You can visually understand what I'm trying to do.

You're using the force of moving your legs to push you. Like when people are like... Like in the air, they think that helps? Yeah. Exactly. It doesn't help. To what? Do anything.

Well, I guess movement. Because cats, they change their projection by how they shift their body weight. If you're in zero gravity, you can't move by doing that. When did we get in zero gravity? Oh, I don't know. I was saying in regular gravity, I guess. Yes, in regular gravity. I mean, what are you pushing against?

The air? Because you can make, for instance, when you're on a swing, you could start fully still and then kick your legs and start going. So it's like you can build some sort of momentum. I think it's the swing from like your legs pull you. Oh, yeah, that's what it is. You swing your leg and the motion is going and the momentum and it pulls you a little bit. And then you do it again.

Keeps pulling you. I don't know if I can do this anymore. You remember being a kid and like trying like getting the swing to the point like swinging on it to the point where like it wouldn't be tight like taut it loosens and it goes and then you start clunking down and then you just jump up as high as you can and like land on the ground and like i feel like now my ankles would just go like a bunch of kids around you yeah you're by yourself i wish i wish i could feel as confident as, well, I'm not going on in swing sets

as often as I used to. Can I build some swing sets for grown-ups? Yeah. Well, that was for a different reason, but can they build those for grown-ups?

Weight requirements, huh? Well, they build swing sets for children, right? And they have specific weight requirements, and I want to get on the swing, and I want to kick my legs, and I want to kick my legs and i want to go until like i'm basically at a at a uh get one of those 90 degree angle get one of those long like wooden plank like southern racist slave owner swings you know what i'm

talking about you can't take those that high though i've been on those you can you can you there's no way you can even get those to a 45 degree angle those ones i'm'm talking about, they're literally just like a plank of wood and then it's like just a thing that goes up on a high branch. Yeah. And what I'm saying is those can't get that high, man. Like they just don't have the same like aerodynamics. What if you got like a Cirque de Soleil beam? No, that might be, that might be doable.

I'm sure one of those circus freaks could do it. They're fucking crazy at it. God, but I remember swinging and you, and you... Odds are you have to go to a circus. I'll pay for it. Okay. Ten. Three, two, one, seven. Five. Oh, thank God. I did not want to go to the circus.

That would have been so good, dude. You still have to COVID ruined so fucking much, dude. You were supposed to buy tickets, front row seats, so we could go see Carrot Top in Vegas. I know. Justin still has to go see Cat Williams by himself. Well, he better look up when Cat Williams is in North Dakota. When in the world?

We need to check Cat Williams' tour dates and make sure that- If he's ever visiting, when he's there, we just surprise him with this. Hey, you said, and you're going to be free today. Well, we got to see when Cat Williams is going to be near Justin, if that's going to happen. Because if Cat Williams comes near Justin on tour and Justin doesn't go, that sounds like he's breaking the what are the odds. Exactly. He has to buy the ticket, right? Yeah.

If it wasn't stipulated then yeah. Well, you have to send him a link. You know, you might have to update him because I don't think that he's, you know, excited. Cat Williams, baby. Let's see the Cat Williams tour. Yo mama. Dude, will you fucking knock it off? Sorry.

Well, why doesn't it tell me the fucking... It just says the name of the venue really long. So... Wait, what? It just said... The name of the venue really long? It won't show me the date or the state. It just says the fucking...

Okay, that website sucks ass, dude. The name of the venue very long. It is the name of the venue is very long, and then it won't show the state. Here we go. Here we go here we go I'm just looking to see if there's any Greenville, South Carolina

February 25th, dude. What about that? Huh? You want to go to that? I Don't want to see cat Williams The point was North Charleston, South Carolina, April 29th. No, he's not going anywhere near Justin, unfortunately. This looks like it's a... Fuck. Yeah, this looks like it's a more... No, it's... Never mind. I was going to say more like East.

If he ever comes to LA, which he probably will, because it's a very popular spot to tour, Justin will be here. We tell him, hey, buy your tickets. Boom. We need proof that he goes to. He could just show up and take a picture and then leave. No.

I want him to take a video at least an hour into the event. How do we prove this, though? That he did it? Yeah. We see the video. Is it just like... Well, he could just do like one song two song and then leave I don't know why I said song

he's famous for his songs he's a great musician it could be like cause his jokes I feel like are very sporadic unless he tells long stories which I wouldn't know cause I've never seen a Cat Williams stand-up. I've only seen commercials for Cat Williams stand-up. I just, this memory just came rushing back to me where I'm like, I was,

it's like eighth grade, I was in my room and I hear my mom downstairs just like cackling, just like howling with laughter. And in your head, you're like, it must be Tyler Perry. Oh, I was like, I don't know what she's watching. I come downstairs and she's sitting on the couch watching a Cat Williams stand up special

just fucking laughing herself into a coma Matthew this is hilarious and she loved the Cat Williams stand up special so he might be funny I mean he's been in movies he was in Norbit and that's so is Terry Crews

that's where I got all my respect for Cat Williams Terry Crews was in Norbit was Eddie Murphy in Norbit yep and that's so was Terry Crews that's right that's where I got all my respect for Cat Williams Terry Crews was in Norbit remember is Eddie Murphy in Norbit Eddie Murphy's the main character in Norbit

oh shit he plays Norbit Eddie Murphy is Norbit and Rasputia he plays both he plays the Asian dad too he drives is that him or is that

that's him David not David Spade uh uh Rob rob you know you're thinking of the guy who marries chuck and larry that's exactly who i'm thinking of because that that's rob schneider doing eddie murphy plays a old asian man that's right father of norbit or like the the he raises him he raises that's right that's right he adopts him or he works for the orphanage or something dude Dude, I could rewatch Norbit.

Okay. Also, recently I was on my Amazon account. The water slide scene though. Oh, dude. The water slide scene. I've said this before. I was looking up some Norbit scenes on YouTube once. I don't understand how they have that many views.

I thought it would be like maybe a couple million views. But it's like, what? It's like 70 million views on the water slide scene or something? I'm like, damn, that many people are fucking watching Norbit scenes on YouTube? It's a hilarious video of a large person going down a water slide. How you doing? You know? Oh, yeah.

How you doing? Fucking fantastic, dude. So actually, I did watch the, when I had the DVD, I watched the behind the scenes. Nub it. And they actually, for the water park thing, they got a real woman's body to be that. And then they basically rotoscoped Edward. You can tell. Edward Murphy's head onto it.

There's like really bad, like at that point, rotoscoping was still very obvious. There's even this, dude, there was this horrible rotoscope in a game of thrones episode let me see if i can it was just like it was because the it it makes sense because the actress didn't want to be nude for the scene and it required her to be nude so they got like a body double so they got a body double but rotoscoped her face onto the body double but it's so just like like flat i guess is the best way to describe it like you know like a video game character somewhere on youtube here i'll try to look it up and send it to you let me see it might be hard to find because you know she's naked here here Norbit movie clip

splashdown 25 million views but there's another one that has more called like Rasputia look at this dude Norbit meets Rasputia a clip of them meeting 17 million views the hell I swear I got like it's not even a

high quality so it's gonna be hard to look up Rasputia waterslide Dude, did the video get taken down? Wait a second Dude, I think that the Norbit clip got taken down, the one that had like 70 million views What? It was called Rasputia at the water park I think And now all I can find is like an official clips channel upload of it

With uh, with 25 million views The hell? channel upload of it with uh with 25 million views the hell okay that's disappointing that's that's really that kind of just put a huge towel over my head for the day like a damp towel thrown across my face stopping me from breathing i'm gonna have some cranberry juice i got this little among us paper cup filled with cranberry juice. Mm. Oh, that's good stuff. You enjoy that? You know, cranberry juice is... Great for the urinary system.

Really good for the urinary system. Oh, my God. That just reminded me. I had a dream last night. I pissed black. My piss was, like, black, like motor oil. And... Your piss was...

A dream where your piss was black. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. And in my dream, I was like, Oh, fuck. Oh, my God. What the hell? And it kind of, like, burned coming out. And I pissed yeah yeah yeah okay and in my dream i was like oh fuck oh my god what the hell and it kind of like burned coming out and i was pissing in the sink in my dream and it was it was black and i was freaking out like just like not fully black like there was like a little it was like it was there was black within the liquid and it was uh kind of just looked like motor oil and it scared the shit out of me and i was like i gotta go to

the hospital in the future there will be aliens who have harvested your brain and it's in a little tank and they're sticking needles and stuff. And you're the fucking one. You're the mind that they need. Because these dreams are fucking out of this world, bro. They're gonna,

like, if they need any brain to study the human mind. Exactly. Mind's a good one. This guy is crazy. Have you heard about his dreams? He pissed black. What? Yep. No, he didn't.

He had a dream he pissed black. Oh, yeah. Get that shit loaded up right now. It's a... They just start watching it. Oh, my God. It's brilliant. What if aliens could actually stick these fucking syringe things and all of a sudden they could just watch your memories and shit?

That'd be terrifying, dude. That'd be awesome. They could watch all my embarrassing moments. Yeah, but they... Like a highlight reel. Who knows, maybe for them it wouldn't be cringe, they'd just find it interesting. Maybe something that would be embarrassing for me would be a regular social norm for them so they wouldn't find it embarrassing. Like, is it weird when you see two monkeys have sex?

Is it weird when you see two lions making love in a documentary? That's how they'd view it. Okay, well, even if it's a documentary, if I'm watching two monkeys making love, it's not like it's not uncomfortable. Why? Because it's just sex. Yeah, I know it's just sex,

but imagine you're watching it with like your family And okay, you're watching this documentary with your parents and it shows two monkeys fucking like like close in Yeah, like penetration full frontal nudity from both of them Monkey dick and monkey pussy like they film it. Oh, dude mad guys up close like the balls like Like it's getting like porn style shots like porn angles like that like he literally just does all the angles with like a fish islands up close sideways that's not the shots we need for the documentary ken which which podcast episode is it the one where they talk about uh filming two monkeys having sex and the cameraman's uh close up on

their penetration and they and they mimic the ball slapping sound. Which one is that? Well, they make the monkey screeches too. I'm going to re-listen to it. It's going to be a Reddit post in like two years. What's the one where they talk about that? How long has that Coke been there behind you?

Coke? Yeah, just hold up. Hold up one second. Just wait. Is it old? Is it old? Is it old? They're fresh. Hold up one second.

Got the drip? Not yet. So. That was salt. Oh. That burned. Fuck. You okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm good. Why was it divvied out into a perfect line? I don't know I think it was was Layton fucking around with salt again? I don't know it stung though I was hoping for something better you have salt in your lungs now dude I was not expecting salt

you have salt in your nasal cavity and in your lungs are you okay? Yeah, I'm good. I'm good. Do we need to go to Ad Reads? Yeah. We'll go right there. Angie has made it easier than ever to connect with skilled professionals to get all your jobs, projects done well.

this like, it wasn't a TikTok. I saw it on Instagram. On this Instagram meme account I used to follow that always got banned and would come back and then get banned and then come back. I eat clips. A-I-G-E-H-T clips. And there were a bunch of iterations,

but he just posted all these, I don't know where he got them, but he just posts these ridiculous clips. What was the one that, what's the one that you're talking about? It's like, you could tell that it's been like reposted and like screen recording down those times because it's so compressed, but it's like some dude tell that it's been like reposted and like screen recording down those many times because it's so compressed but it's like some dude with a line of coke and he has

like a dollar rolled up and he looks at the camera and he's like the cure to coronavirus like trying to make like a funny video with his friend he snorts the line and instantly he's like what the fuck man and like then like his friend just pans over and it shows just one of those cans of Ajax, like Comet cleaning powder. You can just hear him in the background like, that's not Coke, man. And that's it. I don't know why I was fucking. I'm sure the little internet investigators will find it.

Yeah, it's really funny. Send it to Matt again so he can watch it. I could probably find it. I mean, I haven't really looked for it sorry I didn't take a break to finger my ass my favorite line in the entire book in the entire Super Mega Saves the Troops is the part at the end

where it's like it's like after playing around with his cock and balls from the back for a minute where you're getting something out of your pants I wonder if my dad's read any more. That actually, so there's a Let's Play where we talk about how Dale has actually started reading.

He likes it. He really enjoyed it. He's not out yet, but he's enjoyed it so far. I mean, actually, I could call him and get his actual opinion. Sure, do it. Would you like that? Yeah. could call him and get his actual opinion sure do it would you like that yeah let's uh let's let's let's hear a review from dale watson

how's that sound buddy let's hear a review from dale watson i was scrolling through my phone i couldn't find him and then i realized it's because i was looking for dale not dad hopefully he picks up it's 3 45 p.m hey matt hey dad what's up not too much hang on let me get you on speakers i'm driving hey i am uh i'm recording a podcast right now and i just just curious if you've read any of the book yet. Yeah, I finished it. You read the whole thing? Yeah. Really? Yeah, of course I did.

What did you think? Give me your honest review of it. Dude, thousands of people, huh? Are you cool? Well, I mean, i mean i just yeah if that's okay i just want to know your thoughts on it i love the clever way you guys wrapped it up okay i thought that was uh really um just a well done professional way that you wrapped it up. We're professionals. By the way, for your audience, he's paying me to say this. That's not true. You're not supposed to say that part, Dad. Okay.

Cut that outline. You know, to get past the potty humor and all of that, if you look past all of that, it's a great read. Look past it? What do you mean look past it, Dad? It's part of the read. You can't look past all of that, it's a great read. Look past it? What do you mean look past it, Dad? It's part of the read. You can't look past it. There would be a more subtle, clever way to do that part, I think.

But anyway, your target audience is certainly not 60-year-old, studly, very fit men. Right, right. But anyway, I'd say yes, it was very entertaining. You guys had a lot of great twists and turns to it. Okay. And you did an excellent job of wrapping it up and then leaving it all hanging for the next one.

Perfect. And a fair fact, I was going to ask you questions about it. Like, kind of your approach to it. I think maybe we'll have this, talk about this later. Yeah, I don't want to put any spoilers out there, but... Yes. Well, that's drastically different from the review I expected. And Ryan and I appreciate that very much.

That's a very nice review. Did you like the shower scenes? no I figured that was quick well I was gonna ask you about those about like oh yeah go ahead

yeah just now you I wanna hear what you have to say say about them and

that little the way you do it it's obvious um kind of fun but very fun you got to get a lot of them yeah there's a lot of shower scenes well it's it's meant to show i mean it's meant to be like a to show the bond between the two protagonists you know we we need we need scenes to establish uh you know the two the backs like the help me out here ryan you know we need we need scenes to establish uh you know the two the backs like the help me out here ryan you know we said that we were straight yeah well it says we're straight in all the scenes so yeah wink wink well numbers don't we there is no wink wink in the book that means there's nothing homoerotic about those scenes and if there were that well here's the thing that if you read those

scenes i just don't i just don't feel that way about your son if you take if you take away homoerotic tones from that that's your own perception you know because we specify it straight so that's that's but here's my thinking of appealing to a broader audience i know that you both both you guys know audience and your audience loves you my only thinking is how do you appeal to so that so that i can recommend it to my my uh aunts to read it i dad i think that your your aunts would love to read it how it is well it's like would you recommend your aunts like captain underpants well oh by the way matt just a uh a side note here. I'm driving back from Aunt ****'s funeral, which if you remember as a child going to Aunt ****'s house. Yeah, no, I didn't know she passed away.

She did. She was 90, and she was an icon in the Watson family there. I was scared to death of her as a little kid. Yeah. Oh, well, wow. I didn't know that.

That's great food. Yeah. Yeah. My condolences. Your grandparents passing just a month or so ago and then she's going. wow. Don't want to change the tone of your call here. No,

it did, but it's, it's okay. It's okay. Overall. I appreciate your words on the book. Um, I'll call you in a bit and, and talk to you, it did, but it's, it's okay. It's okay. Overall. I appreciate your words on the book. Um, I'll call you in a bit and talk to you after the podcast, but, but thank you so much for your kind review and I'll talk to you later. Hey, hey to Ryan and, um, um, good job guys.

Actually, when I was leaving town this morning, driving from Charleston, South Carolina to Greenville. Your book was on a billboard as I was leaving town. You saw it? Nice. Nice. You saw it. I'm glad. I saw it. I had to smile as I drove by it going, wow, that's like so random there. That's great that you saw it. I'm so glad. Yeah. All right. Well, I'll talk to you later, Dad. Ryan. Yeah? Bite me.

Bite you? See you guys. Love you. Love you. What the, what was that? He wants you to bite him? I don't know. Well, I guess my great-aunt

has passed away, unfortunately. R.I.B. The icon in the Watson. icon in the watson family gene pool i love like rep like my gene pool our gene pools together why did my dad choose like right then like knowing he's on the podcast to tell me that a family member passed away actually speaking of you know i'm on i'm driving and I'm on the way back from my aunt's funeral. Okay. Funny thing is, your grandparents died.

Yeah, he brought that up for nobody. Like, you know, your grandparents just died a month ago. Hilarious. He said, he said, with your grandparents passing about a month ago. I was like, uh, yeah, I know they passed away a month ago I have one I have one grandparent left I don't know why my dad said a month ago

it was September when they passed away and it's January now so that's a little more than a month ago but that's actually a quarter of a year ago not a month ago but you said you have two grandparents left? I have one of, like, blood in my gene pool.

Your Oma. My Oma. And you didn't get to have that Oma cooking, man. You didn't get the Oma rice. No, I didn't. I didn't have the fucking stuffed grape leaves. I didn't have kibbe. I didn't have fucking Oma's rice.

I didn't have hummus and pita chips, bread, whatever the fuck they have. And also, they always have pepper jelly and cream cheese with crackers. Oh, do fucking cream cheese with pepper jelly with like a Ritz cracker? Oh my God. And that's not like a, oh, it's this thing that they make. It's just a little side thing that I like. That's like a southern thing, I think. I mean, they have pepper jelly here.

When I would go to the farmer's market. Like jalapeno pepper jelly at Ralph's. And it's good for cheese night. Pepper jelly with cream cheese. We gotta have a cheese night. We can't have a fucking cheese night. We can't. Oh, yeah, you're right.

Or wine night. Nope. Because we can't be drinking. After I get epic and you get epic. After I get epic, too, we can have wine and cheese. Yeah, we can celebrate. We can have a different type of night. We can, maybe we can have a, well, cheese. Yeah, we can celebrate. We can have a different type of night. We can, uh, we can, um, maybe we can have a...

Well, cheese is healthy, right? No. Mm. It's dairy. You can have cheese, but you shouldn't have, like... My trainer... A meal shouldn't consist of solely cheese and wine and pepper jelly. Okay.

You know what I mean? Well, what about... And honey and all, whatever the fuck, nuts, whatever you put on your little cheese platters. Fruit and nuts night. Where we each get an apple and a handful of nuts and some grapes maybe a carrot sounds miserable that's like when you were a kid and you were hungry dad i'm hungry and they'd be like well you can have an apple or some almonds instead of coming in like with like two coffee cups i come in with like two big like carrot sticks hey buddy got you a carrot. No ranch or anything, just.

Carrots are the most, like I get it. People like carrots and I like them too. Like when they're like in a stew or like when they're paired with like a gravy or like a steak or something like that. But I don't like them plain. You don't like just a. To me, they really represent like the most miserable

like thing like to be eating. I don't. Like I'm thinking of someone eating something alone and someone's eating just a dry carrot like that's just if you're eating dry carrots out there at this moment I'm not talking about the juicy

little ones that look juicy. I don't like those I don't like the shape. I don't like why they're like why putting them around. Those are people I like the real rabbit looking carrots. I do enjoy those. You miserable sack of shit. Enjoying what you like.

Carrots, I gotta be in the mood for carrots but I can enjoy a nice sometimes like a carrot's a little bit sweet Carrot juice and carrot cake are delicious. Carrots are and carrot cake are delicious. Carrots are good for your eyes too. You know what else is good for your eyes? What?

MacGruber. It was a movie. Did you watch it? Finally. Because Leighton every single day. I saw MacGruber in theaters with my dad when it came out. No, I mean the show that came out. Oh, yes.

Well, I've only seen two episodes so far, but I love it. It's good? I love it. It's just fucking, I think you might enjoy it. Think so? It's just goofy, fucking fun. And the scenes, I could just picture as really good sketches on like a sketch comedy show. And I love MacGruber. I think it's funny.

I think it's shot well and they do like a good job of adding production value. It looks like it at least cost a good bit. Right, right. I've heard that it was expensive and I hear Leighton ranting and raving about it which makes me not want to watch it

well now that you've given it the McGee thumbs up I'll have to check it out I've only seen two episodes though there's one part in an episode and I understand I'm not going to say what the part is there's a part in an episode I think it might have been episode two

I was cackling my fucking ass off the classic McGee giggle was it going full force I can't remember if it was two or three episodes I'll have to look back but it's just like it was the classic Ryan laugh that's a good laugh

it was an immature thing that happened the whole thing is very immature well you know they could try appealing to a broad audience they could be a little more clever i think because how how how would i go recommending mcgruber to my great aunt well not the one that just passed away of course but from your dad's review of the book like i feel like on his book shelf is like horton here's a who my what is it?

My butt from Uranus, whatever the fuck that book series is. And then like for the sophisticated side, War and Peace, you know, stuff like that. I was thinking a series of unfortunate events for the sophisticated side. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because it has pictures. That's true. Yeah, and also our book also has pictures. Pictures as well.

So that made it a lot easier for my dad to read. Yep. He's very dyslexic, so. The font's very big. It is. It's a larger font. We could make it the next one smaller if we wanted, but then the book, you know,

I want the next book to be thicker. No, I want our book to be, like, I want it to be read by people who like you know their glasses they don't know where they are but they can just make stuff out if our text was any smaller people who lost their glasses wouldn't be able to read our book yeah that's a great point that's a great point yeah and also that that lets us you know it also does my dad says you know the bulk isn't geared towards people like him that are 60 but it's like like, yeah, actually the text is bigger.

No, the text is bigger though, allowing 60-year-olds to read it a lot easier. Yeah. What happened? Did you just fart? Ben Saget. Bob Saget. That was surprising. Me too.

There's no cause of death or anything, right? No. So I'm not one to speculate but i i was just chilling yesterday and i just get a news notification says bob saget 65 passed away were you the one that sent me that yeah you sent me that and i looked at i was like because i knew it wasn't fake i was just like no fucking way or maybe i saw it on twitter i just remember seeing the image you texted me and you said in all caps WHAT? question mark exclamation mark

because I was like I guess the best way I can describe it fuck me dude I'm so congested right now that's how you want to describe Bob Saget's death? no Ben Saigon's death? it's just like

there are celebrity and stuff that our parents grew up with that are, like, a lot of them are gone or old or not working anymore. And it's just, like, me realizing that it's, like, eventually, like, you know, I'll mature to that point. Because a lot of the people that I watched, let's say, at Nick at Night. I may have not watched the shows when they were originally airing, but I did watch, like, Nick at Night. And so I watched Full house a good bit. So that's where I knew him from. He's a staple of like the generation before you. And he did a America's funniest home videos and shit.

He did. And there was a roast and all this. There was the roast. I watched the roast, but I haven't, I don't, I haven't really like kept up with his stuff. I see him pop up every now and then,

but it's just kind of like one of those weird things of like, Oh, they just don't exist right now. and they only exist through their past work right that people will have to appreciate and like there's no there's no new form of there's no new bob saget podcast episode there's no are they gonna still new cameo in a movie are they gonna keep throwing the bob saget podcast ads on our podcast still? I would, I assume maybe so. Someone's probably still making money off of them. Because those episodes stay up.

Well, you know, they did ask us to tone it back on the Bob Saget talk. Is this okay? Does this put us in the clear? I mean, are we allowed to say that? He's not going to get mad anymore. Well, he can't. Do you think we can talk about it now? I mean, he can get mad. Can we joke about the podcast now? He's not going to get mad anymore. Well, he can't. Do you think we can talk about it now? I mean, he can get mad.

Can we joke about the podcast now? He can be up in heaven looking down. Oh, you fuckers! You fucking Let's Players! God damn it! Spoiling and ruining my name! This is actually just an hour ago. They completed his autopsy.

It said no evidence of drug use or foul play. And that's all they keep saying. And it says the cause and manner of death are pending further studies and investigation, which may take up to 10 to 12 weeks to complete. What does that mean? So like a brain aneurysm could mean suicide. Maybe that's what I always kind of like shift to. Yeah. It's like when they won't say.

And it's also he was 65. That's not like, yeah, super old, you old you know like i mean you could have a heart attack at that age but it seems to be more like i don't know he wasn't like old old he was yeah 60 something that's that's not as you were saying that's not young but most people make it past their 60s so yes and he seemed healthy a lot of people start to show like signs like getting old or aging or like health starts to crop up more. Like honestly, I feel in the 80s, like 80s. That's like around the age where all of my grandparents started to get a little, I guess, weaker. Like my grandfather fell, broke his hip.

Yeah. So then it makes him immobile. So now he's getting weaker because he's sitting down all the time. When old people fall and break their hip, that's usually the... It can be a death sentence because, you know... I think it was just going to get groceries. Like he was getting down from a curb or something and then just... Yeah, that's what's...

When you're older, it's like... I think. My mom's probably like no that is not right that event I told you about once when you were seven and you recalled it inaccurately but

yeah that's crazy though Bob Saget you know I what's ingrained in my memory more than Full House more than America's Funniest Home Videos was Tourette's Guy. Bob Saget! Oh, Bob Saget! Because before—

I saw a lot of GIFs of Tourette's Guy. Yeah, of Tourette's Guy yesterday. Because before I knew Full House, I knew Tourette's Guy. Because I didn't watch Full House until I got cable in middle school. But I did before that watch Tourette's Guy on YouTube, and he would always scream Bob Saget as like an expletive, and I never understood why. I just thought it was funny that he was screaming just Bob Saget.

Every time he got upset, he stubbed his toe or he, you know, dropped his fork. Bob Saget! Stop, Bob Saget! Would you go up to your mom and dad who are like, I don't know, fucking in the kitchen and share your- I'd show them. Bob Saget!

Come here, come here, come here. Look at this. And I'd show them and I'd say, this is not funny. This man is struggling with what appears to be a mental illness. And I said, oh, Bob Saget! And then we all had a good laugh and they went back to fucking- Is Tourette's a mental illness? Is Tourette's a mental illness?

I don't know. It's like a physical tick. I don't know if it... I guess it's something to do with your neurological functions in your brain that cause that to happen. I think it's a neurological... But when I think of mental illness,

I don't know why, maybe it's the way that it's been marketed to me. I think of depression. It's a nervous system disorder. Schizophrenia. Huh? Nervous system disorder.

Nervous system disorder. Interesting. That's what I was, it's more like physical tics. It is not a mental health issue. Oh, okay. The only reason I thought it might have been a mental health issue. You just got owned. Yeah, I know, I know.

But I'll accept it. You know, I got owned. No, I didn't get owned, Ryan. I grew. I learned that I saw that I was wrong and then I learned something. And that's all that we should be asking. Right. I don't care that I was wrong. Semi-successful young man.

Now that I know the truth, I'm moving forward as a more whole man. But basically, I know someone with Tourette's and it's just like a tiny twitch like a every now and then but I thought the only reason it could be a mental thing was because of the some people with Tourette's that you know yell the swear words and stuff you know that that's a that's a interesting like aspect of a neurological disorder like not being unable to like be not able to control yourself from yelling slurs and stuff in public. That's got to suck because it's like you're aware that like this is bad. I should not. Well, because you have to imagine there can be certain scenarios where it's not that you're thinking of the word you're thinking of.

Oh, fuck. This is I wonder if it's the more you think about not saying it like that's what it kind of like. Fuck, fuck. Like it. It starts to drill in of like fuck fuck like it it starts to drill in there because i know like also tics can be you don't have to have the same your tick can be physical or it can be vocal but you don't have to have like the same vocal tics like it can change like the phrases can change and the words and all well i saw i saw there can be stages i've seen videos of Tourette's where it seems like it changes depending on like who's around.

And like, I saw one where it was someone around like a black person and then they were yelling a very bad word. And it's, that's got to be so embarrassing. Yeah. Because it's like, sorry, I, sorry. I mean, there are two like. Puts you in danger too. Fairly big, I mean, not fairly. There are two big entertainers who both have a different form.

Like, there's, of Tourette's, it's Ethan. Ethan Klein, yeah. Ethan Klein has, like, a physical tic. And then Sweet Anita, who's, like, a streamer and has a YouTube channel, she has, like, vocal tics. Oh, really? Yeah. So, like, she, like, explains what it's like for her,

because, like, you know how depression isn't the same amongst everyone she has a I guess her own way of viewing it and her own way of dealing with it or going through it cause it's more of like she's not like it's nothing to be I'm not embarrassed

about it cause she's out there in streams and so it's like a positive light on it's more like a there in streams and so it's like a positive light right on like it's more like a positive outlook well i don't think on tourette's because a lot of images would be if you think of like kind of like south park or family guy type jokes yeah where it's more of like fucking boss you know making fun of that type yeah a lot of people don't understand for us i mean i even didn't understand it that much until man just now kind of and it is comical to have

to, like, I mean, it's to be screaming balls out in public. It's horrific and it's also comical. You can, two things can exist at the same time. Right. Yeah. I really think that I had, when I was a kid, I had like nervous tics

that went away as I got older, but when I was in kindergarten, I would do these, like, vocal tics out went away as I got older. But when I was in kindergarten, I would do these vocal tics out of anxiety. I would go, hmm, hmm. And I would just do that out of anxiety. I don't know why. And this weird breathing pattern thing. And my teacher wrote a note to my mom about it. And then I eventually stopped.

But I would always do these weird vocal tics. And my mom... Sounds like you were just seeking, like, vocal tics, and my mom... Sounds like you were just seeking attention. Well, one of the things my mom... Yeah, I was. My mom got me a rubber band. Did you wear gloves to class, too? No.

Well, no, I had my one-glove phase. Your fingerless gloves? They weren't fingerless. It was one glove, but then when I found out Michael Jackson did it, I told you I didn't want to. But I had a rubber band, and every time I caught myself doing it,

I was supposed to snap myself with the rubber band you know kind of uh Pavlovian treatment and then I just got on anxiety medicine later in life and stopped yeah when I vape actually when I get back on nicotine I know I catch myself doing the breath thing though it's like a weird like flex of my throat I can't even explain it. I know I catch myself doing the breath thing, though. It's like a weird flex of my throat. I can't even explain it, but I've always done it. I mean, there are also tics that aren't from Tourette's. It's just like people have tics. In general, people have their own mannerisms.

That's how you recognize people's posture or body. That's how you recognize someone from a distance, for example, in terms of posture. I can hear. I always know when it's you coming down the hall or when it's Leighton body like that's how you recognize someone from a distance for example in terms of posture I can hear I always know when it's you coming down the hall or when it's Layton or when it's Jackson yeah I can tell just by the like the way you walk the way you talk the way you shake that thing you know the way I fucking drop this fucking dumper of mine

this thick fucking dumper I know when it's coming man I know I can hear that thick dumper coming coming up and down the hallway I hear Layton's little tiptoes Jackson kind of throws his feet in front of him the way Jackson walks is he kind of just throws his feet

in front of him you can always tell it's me because I'm the only one wearing like flip flops or slides I'm a big giveaway so it's like either like... Well, it's like I couldn't even describe how I know the difference

between y'all's walking patterns, but it's almost like subconscious. Like if you guys were all wearing the same shoes, I could tell who it was. And you could do it too, I'm sure. Like you could tell

when it's me or when it's Jackson or Leighton. Leighton walks a little faster than anybody in the office. Well, he kind of prances. Yeah. You know,

he's light in his loafers. Jackson's pretty heavy, cartoony jackson is kind of he just kind of like i said he just kind of throws his feet in front of him like slowly too he kind of like loafs no he not loaf he uh he what's the word i'm looking for i don't know yours is like very long heavy and light at all in all in one long heavy and light all right i don't know how to explain it like. Like, it always sounds like you're going, like, for... It's kind of like a cartoon walk, too.

Like, long strides, but you're just walking and vibing and chilling. Because you're so tall. My feet are fucked up. You're like 7'3". My feet are so fucked up from the bunions. Like, my bone structure's out of place. Makes my balance all wacky. I could crack it into a better...

I would love that, dude. Honestly, I should have... I mean, if you want me to try it, I could just... Right a better thing. I would love that dude, honestly. I should've- I mean, if you want me to try it, I could just- Right now? Yeah, hold up. Okay. Just give me your- Here.

Well, careful, cause you have the bunions there, but see how it's curved? I don't have a lot of arch support. I'm gonna move the mic, cause uh- Alright. Okay, I'm just gonna- Alright. See, I'm gonna bend the toes one way- Okay.

And then I'm just gonna- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Okay, we're back. I got myself a bandage, like a band-aid or two. Yeah, we wrapped it up a bit. It actually feels a lot better now. Yeah, you should still probably go see a doctor just to make sure I did it right. Because, you know, it's like when a chiropractor cracks someone's back. It's like, ah! Or like a band-aid. Right, right.

Simply put, you know. Yeah, so feeling a little bit better. Well, actually, there's no feeling at all. So, I mean, that's why it feels better. But do you remember when you were so stupid that you had to be taught what, you know, like a Band-Aid? You didn't know what a Band-Aid was at one point. Mm-hmm. Well, actually, what is a Band-Aid?

Huh? What's a Band-Aid? I'll tell you. I'll tell you after. I know the phrase and everything. It's just a little, it's just like a little, like, think of a sticker, but there's, like, padding on it. Think of, like, a little, actually a little tampon that you put on, like, cuts or something so it doesn't get infected. And you can put some disinfectant, like Neosporin on the on the like pad i know what

neosporin is what what's a tampon oh sorry not a pad sorry i don't know why i said a pad it's kind of like a a miniature pad okay because pads are used to stop bleeding you know like for a period and and band-aids are made to stop the bleeding of slits as well oh okay okay well i mean i i'm a visual learner so okay i'll figure it out it's fine but but yeah there was a point when I didn't know what what band-aids were they come in all shapes and sizes and colors there was a pattern there was a point where you had to learn you learned everything there's a point when when there was a day when you learned what a book was there was a day there was a

moment when you learned what a what a what a video game was when you learned what what cat was you know it's it's just, I want to, I want to, I want to like get into, I guess that's why like people get into hobbies. Like as they like get older, they find new hobbies and stuff. Cause like,

I want to learn more. I want to, I want to find new shit to be excited about. Yeah, exactly. You have that. Humans always have that, uh,

that itch that drive for more discover to explore to learn. I mean, that's why that's why people go go to school, not because they've been taught that if they don't fit the exact process and mold of that and then having a family, two car household and a job that they work nine to five. and a family, two-car household, and a job that they work nine to five. Just to save money for retirement. Are colleges in trouble as a business? Like coming up in the future, you know what I mean? Probably. Just because I imagine that the push for free education will get stronger. Because college in America is like... It'll be like doctors and lawyers and stuff,

but in terms of a general kind of like I majored in business, in business you know what i mean well college is charged so fucking much and also it's like you know the the wealth gap gets bigger and it's like it's more less people are able to afford college now and and i think it more people are being becoming unable to afford college because it gets more expensive and it's just uh i'm not talking like in the next five or ten years. I'm talking about like when we're probably old, you know? I just don't understand why it'd be so cool if there was like free college that everyone could go to. And if you want to go to like a... It's called YouTube, sweetheart.

You know, you can learn more on... It's called Wikipedia, numbnuts. If you could like process all the information from every Wikipedia video and have it... I mean every YouTube video and have it in your brain, then, you know, you'd be the smartest man on earth. I'm sure there are programs you can buy where it's like the history of whatever and you can just like watch it. But like there is something different in terms of like having like a lecture and then going and studying and then being tested so that it's made to like cement itself into your head right yeah but the problem was i would lazy yeah i was too i was i was a b c student got got my a's every now and then i got a couple a's you know i got like a like two a's and then maybe like two b's and a c yeah three b's and

a and a c i would get like i would learn the stuff you know i'd pay i'd like pay attention and take the notes and study them but the thing is like i would only learn it for the test and then after the test throw it out like my brain would just be like all right let's make room for more and get rid of this shit so it's i don't know if that means that like the method of teaching that's used right now isn't like that effective or well that's only because or if it's just me well that's just because if you're talking about like history or science you have like different segments that you go by but like because you don't apply it but like with math since you continuously reapply it throughout the different stages of like just simple math and algebra and

all that shit so it's like there i feel like with math and even with like English class, I know it's like, oh, you have to read like all these stupid books or whatever. Like there is sort of an incline in like vocabulary. Yeah.

Just the, I guess more so vocabulary just expands your vocabulary a lot and it helps your reading skills. I wish I had paid attention more in math and in English. You know the basics, you know. I wish I had paid attention more in math and in English and history. You know the basics, you know? I mean, what else?

What do you need? Well, yeah, I guess I just paid attention better in the basics. Like, fuck calculus, fuck... Okay, don't take me out of context. I don't... I know what you need math for, but I mean, what do you need to know?

Everything's so automated today. And I'm not going into a fucking career where I need to know the trigonomic formula. That's not even a thing. Yeah, now being good at math is a fun little cute bar trick. Okay. Hey, baby. Ask me my timetables.

No. Eight times nine? I'm just trying to get a drink. But I can tell you eight times nine before you can. Okay. It's 72 cool 8 times 8 64

8 times 6 8 times 7 I thought that's that in elementary school I remember doing flat sorry I just remember getting home from the bus

and I would go to my friend's house. It was a neighborhood over, but just because my parents wouldn't be home in time or like my dad wouldn't be home in time. So I had to go over to my friend's house where his mom or dad would be home. And it's just like,

I remember the days of like flashcard learning, flashcards, like times table flashcards, or even just vocabulary flashcards, just flashcards helped a lot. I feel, I feel like that's like one of the best ways of studying or, like, getting more so, like, learning stuff, like, memorizing stuff just so you can pass the test at least. Yeah.

Yeah, totally. I used flashcards all the time in high school. I used them for, like, regular stuff, too. I really want to learn. I'm really getting excited about flashcards over here. Hey, dude, flashcards are awesome, man. We could still make flashcards. Yeah, we could. Just, like, whatever you want, man. Pick something you want to learn about. excited about flashcards over here. Hey, dude, flashcards are awesome, man. We could still make flashcards. Yeah, we could.

Just, like, whatever you want, man. Pick something you want to learn about, make some flashcards. I love astronomy. Maybe I'll make some flashcards about astronomy and just sit there and study them in my free time. But I know more, you know? Yeah. You could learn Afrikaans.

Afrikaans is actually, apparently... Or Afrikaans, whatever. Apricots. More like Afrikaant. Because it's so hard. What's hard? No, it's not. Afrikaans is a language.

It's actually pretty easy, apparently. Apparently, Afrikaans is one of the easiest languages. It's like Dutch and English combined, basically, right? I've told the story about the one, I think, South African guy named Jim Bob Joe. That's not his real name. I was about to say. I'm not going to say his real name. That's hilarious, dude.

That would be hilarious if that was really... I'm Jim Bob Joe. He had an accent and he spoke Afrikaans. I don't know why... That's the South African accent. Yeah.

Afrikaans. So does Charlize Theron. She's South African. So is Elon Musk. Is he? Yeah, he's South African. What is Elon Musk? Like German and...

South African. Let me see. Is he... Like ethnicity-wise? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Elon Musk. Yeah, I just looked it up And it also says that

Yeah, he had the hair tray It's my hair train. You can get a hair transplant. So it's someone else's scalp on your, or like someone else's armpit? No, it's not the scalp.

It's basically they take like the, I think the roots or something, and they rep... Actually, actually, I got an email recently. Okay. That, uh... It was targeted to you. Yes. Okay. That was targeted to you.

Yes. And let me, this is something that maybe I should consider. Okay. Okay. Let me pull it up real quick. The subject was visit Istanbul for a clinic and hotel collaboration with, and i'm not going to say the name of the company hi there we came across your amazing feed and our research for suitable influencers for our client in istanbul turkey they operate one of the best clinic in turkey for dental care aesthetic surgeries and hair transplantation and have a unique offer for you

you will stay one week in a very nice hotel with a view on the bosporus i don't know what that means including authentic and historical turkish bath and the ottoman empire you choose a free treatment in one of three areas dental care aesthetics or hair transplantation uh so basically they're saying they would they would pay for for me to to go to Istanbul to get a free hair transplant. And it would be some kind of influencer collaboration. That's awesome. But I'm like, I was like, whoa. I mean.

Did you respond? No. What? It sounds like a scam, but also. Matthew, come on. Hold on. Let me, let me, let me, I was reading a screenshot. Let me go to the full thing.

All right. on hold on let me let me let me fit let me i i was reading a screenshot let me go to the full thing all right uh you report about your istanbul experience including mentioning and tagging the clinic to your audience in daily instagram stories which remain in the highlight section for a period to be agreed upon this way you can enjoy a great vacation in one of the world's most exciting cities uh and then you can get a full treatment one of the clinics uh and if not you can get your teeth done or something okay so now we've you know what's weird got invited to armenia and who's armenia enemies with turkey now getting invited to turkey my being used are they as a political pawn here i think for influencers well i mean we still have to go to if I could fix dude

but if I got a brand new head of hair like thick hair like Dude, I'll I don't any any foreign government hit like I will I'll say whatever you guys want me to say about whatever country You don't need the hair transplant No, not yet. Maybe at some point. They do teeth. They do. Sometimes hair can just fall out fast. Who knows?

I have heard, though, like, turkey is notorious for the hair surgery, the hair transplant. Like, it's where all the guys go. It's where, like, the best ones are. Apparently, like, it's amazing. It's incredible. You know, they just... It's... I think it's like $10,000 or more.

It's expensive. So... Oh, that's cheap for you. Yeah, but I don't know, man. Oh, the patrons will cover it. Dude, the patrons would love to pay for my new head of hair. If I could get a new head of hair, I'd get thick hair because my hair is very thin right now, so it's hard to style.

I got a lot of cowlicks. But have you seen what it looks like when someone gets hair plugs? It's disgusting. I don't want to. It's terrifying. Like how they put it, like when someone gets hair plugs it's disgusting i don't want it's terrifying like how they put it like the the procedure itself no like what it looks like before the hair grows like they have to like wear a beanie for a bit it basically just like every single hair follicle looks like swollen and it's it's really like if you have a tryptophobia then it's like the

absolute worst trigger for that. It looks disgusting, but I mean, they could lower this hairline an inch or two, you know? Right at your eyebrows? If I asked them, like, can you just take it down to my eyebrows, please? I mean, technically, could they, I guess? I don't know. That'd be hilarious, though. I'm sure that there's someone listening that has gone to Turkey and gotten the Turkish hair transplant.

It's common, yeah. I don't know how common it is, but I know I've heard of it. I heard Hasan talking about it. Did Hasan do it? I sent Hasan a screenshot of this email and I said, should I do this? And he said yes. Did he do it? No. He's already

Turkish, man. He gets all the Turkish free stuff he wants. Why is he telling you to do it? I don't know. So Hassan thinks you have a bad hairline? I should have asked. Wait, why did you say yes? Do you think I need it? So he's like, yeah, bro.

And he's like, oh. No, this was a joke. What? Never mind. And I never speak to Hassan again. When's the podcast? Oh, soon. Bye.

Yep. Well, like update one week later from the last podcast episode. And now we have, I think all the equipment has arrived. Yep. Tucker's still in Hawaii. Hawaii. But he's essentially the one who's setting up the camera. It looks beautiful.

Light and all that shit. It's going to hope. I mean, I don't know why I say hopefully. It's Tucker. Tucker always does a fantastic fucking job. If Tucker came in and just did shit, it was absolutely garbage. There's no way. I would.

That would actually be like. Tucker's never, ever filmed something like it, at least for us, or that I've seen, that looks bad. I have seen one thing he filmed that was bad. It was the home,

I don't know what sex tape type thing he made. That was with an iPhone. Yeah, but well, it wasn't mainly bad because of the shooting. It was bad from the moves he was pulling. He was not smooth with the sex. What moves, dude? Exactly. So he wasn't very smooth with the sex, and he came in what?

In the first minute of the video. I mean, the other seven minutes was this kind of him trying to get hard again. In and out's a restaurant, not a lifestyle, buddy. Yeah. Yeah, come on. Exactly. But other than that, he's amazing, dude. He shoots the

the best stuff oh i feel myself having a shit okay really bad well you know i'm gonna go take a shit my digestive system's been fucked lately just so absolutely fucked i stopped i ran out of my uh probiotics so i think that maybe maybe that's why i don't know we should we should both take a shit together same toilet back to back to back? You're on the front, I'm on the back. And then maybe, maybe if we fill it up, we can reach the ceiling. And then go, high five the ceiling. What if you pull an up attack? That'll be in the next book, by the way.

First scene. Hold on, we have to take a huge shit. And then it describes us. They fill the toilet. Just wait, just wait everyone. Oh, it's going to be good describes just wait y'all gotta wait for that chapter the poopoo chapter you gotta make a little more mature than poopoo my dad said it was potty humor

poopoo is potty humor poop is mature the crap that's good the crap chapter the craptor can we name that one craptor like four whenever we get to it? In the audio book when it hits chapter 21.
