I'm here with my co-host Joe you look like a fucking idiot See this is how you start up. I know you know you know it's just it's that time of the year where I got it I got it like first of all it's the most joyous time. It is the most joyous time of the year It's the time of the year where I gotta like... First of all, it's supposed to be the most joyous time of the year. It is the most joyous time of the year, but the time of the year... It's the most wonderful time of the year. Sang by Andy Williams, not Bing Crosby, he's a bad guy.

Yeah. Well, Andy Williams may have done... I'm sure all of them did some shit, you know? I'm sure they were all swinging. You forgot swinging. Like, oh, you mean swinging. Yeah, no, not like swinging like here in my keys. Well, they were probably doing that too. I don't know Oh swinging. I thought you were meant dancing. Oh, I thought you met fucking three definitions I thought you met like fucking each other's friends and shit like that

Oh, well probes you think they were doing all that I think so weren't they all messing with their secretaries back then well Yeah But that was that was like they believed that that was that was like, that was what men are meant to do. Yeah, cigarettes, whiskey during the day, having sex with the secretary. I'll be honest with you. The drinking during the day? Whiskey during the, when light is out is kind of wild.

Really? Yeah, that's crazy. I don't hate it. I don't hate it. I hate it. Really? I don't think I've I don't hate it. I hate it. Really? I don't think I've ever had whiskey when the Sun was up. Uh Man, I wasn't mixed with shit. Yeah. Well, yeah exactly a jack-and-coke doesn't like drinking like a whiskey neatest Bananas in the Sun is out. Uh

Yeah, you need to put an ice cube or two in that although, you know, like people get into the whole like you're ruining it I drink everything. Oh not everything but like I drink with actually I guess everything except wine with the ice cube Water too, like if you get a lot of water with ice cube I do too But I'm saying like if someone gives you a cup of water would you like with ice or without ice you'd prefer? I'm not gonna make them do an extra. I mean, it's. I mean, it's just right there. It's just right there. I know, but I'm not gonna ask.

I'm just gonna say, can I have a cup of water? Yeah, I don't know. Although, if I'm at your house, not your house, but anybody's house, and I ask for a cup of water, and you hand me room temperature water, this is a pigsty. Really? Yeah, that's insane.

Really? Make it cold. Bro, do you know that I met people in my life that like prefer room temperature water? I don't mind it. What are they lizards? What is I know I guess so I guess so I doesn't I have no I'm not staking my flag in any part of the ground here Like I don't feel any particular way about the temperature of water water should be on the colder side I'm not saying it has to be freezing cold

But like you're gonna hand me room temperature water like I'm drinking out of the toilet too cold though It hurts my throat Yeah, don't go don't go too cold because then it gets my throat gets too cold and I could like track the water go down My esophagus. Yeah, I stomach. I don't like that. I do that with coffee pretty much every day You drink hot coffee and it's like I could feel really I was just gonna ask a stupid question But this should be good. I shouldn't right right. No, you should okay water goes in your stomach Where else would it go? I don't know like it gets like, you know How there's like leach fields and stuff like that on like no, I don't never heard of a leach field

No, well because at the lake house we had septic tanks, which Frank you're a human being you're not a septic tank. Listen to me. First of all, you asked the right people. Depending on what I eat, I am a septic tank, okay? That is fair. You know, we all are sometimes. But when we were setting up the septic tanks,

septic tanks are meant to just house solids, like the liquids, if it houses liquids, it could fill up prematurely and you know, it's not a good system So you install something called a leach field. So it's like a tube that comes off of your sewage line. So like Liquids just go into the ground I think that everything goes into the stomach and then it kind of like goes but I'm saying like I would imagine This would be a hold on this might be I guess I can't pitch this invention to anyone because we're all made by the same creator. You're also getting things wrong.

So I don't know that you're inventing anything. What if we changed our bodies? So like when you drink water, it like seeps. Oh, you want to reinvent the human body? Go ahead. I'm just saying, wouldn't it make more sense if water didn't go in our stomach and it like, the stomach was just like only for solids and water seeped into other stuff?

I agree. Well, I think that it should just be spread out. Yes! My arms, my hands, my legs, right? Like everything's right here. That shouldn't, that is poor design. Hey God, I know you're watching, because you're always watching. You, Santa Claus, and parents.

And that's it and the devil and Grandma, I get grandma and big brother the five big brothers that are always watching the birds Wait the big boat birds to yeah, so six. That's the government the birds No, brother big brother is the government. Oh, okay, so we'll put them together Big brother right Santa Claus Santa Claus God your Claus, God, your grandmother, the devil. Right. Always watching. What a group.

What a group. It sounds like a cool tattoo. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um. Um. Um. Um. Like reinvent the body a little bit.

Right, yeah. You know, like there are certain things, like we don't need like some of the stuff we got in there. Like, isn't like a gallbladder like pointless well also what's piss you know what I mean that's water yeah but what it but like how does it get there well I think it has to go through like our like kidneys or pancreas or something but like it like fishes out the bad stuff so we're pissing out the bad stuff so so here we are just bear with I know there's people who are smart to listen to the show why I'll ask

why yeah yeah you're not really helping you're not but here's I'm with you now okay I mean it goes into the stomach because it has to and if it doesn't that is a complete shock to this person um these pieces persons pieces of person yeah but when you drink water right and it goes into the stomach Yeah, how does it get to the kidney because there has to be some sort of filtration I imagine there's like an old you know like you know cuz you you obviously you remember crossing guards They're all old and white I imagine there's like an old white crossing guard who's just like Piss that way yeah, you know and you?

Chocolate over there. Yeah, you know I should have paid more attention to osmosis Jones that movie probably explains a lot of stuff I have her idiots like I haven't watched Careful with the idiots, but I mean that's the only reason why I know what a uvula is Puss oh no, that's not that's the thing back in the throat. Yeah back in the throat. Yeah, I haven't watched. I'm sorry I thought you were saying no no urethra. No you're thinking vulva oh Now we're getting in a car urethra also down there now. We're getting into cars and shit Yeah, no volvos now volvo volva. Yeah You know hey whoever that car melma you know what I mean? Oh now

We're getting underrated character in scooby-doo, by the way I think appropriately rated her showed better than Daphne Come on better than that. Come on, dude better than that. You're crazy. I'm not listen. I think that there are audiences for both Characters. Yeah, but if you're walking around and saying that Daphne had it going on more than Velma. No, no, no Velma had it more. I'm sorry. You're right. If that's what you're saying, I think you're a little, you're a little crazy. Listen, one for you, one for me. Fair. Yeah. Fair. The bob cut lost me. You have to admit the haircut kind of sucks.

Hair can change. Hair can change. And it it I'll go one for the further should well It's all about the vibes, but she was also kind of a dork you know yeah But then like but like the dorks I do like sometimes the dorks Scott. I do like dorks You know why you gotta pull me back here cuz Beck is a dork and I like dorks Word dork if you mix the word dork sounds like when you throw something and it bounces like Exactly doink is what I'm thinking I hate this show really no I love oh, I absolutely Still don't know where the stomach is going no the stomach isn't going anyway. I guess it remains firmly intact

What's holding the stomach isn't going anyway. No, I guess it remains firmly intact. What's holding the stomach up? The intestines it's just sitting at what's holding our intestines I think our fucking gooch the organs are like connected to moss See I can't even get that right see this it's all hooks. This is a It's all hooks and bags that That's all the human body is. Hooks, bags. That's it. But also like... I don't understand how I can eat something and then lay down and it doesn't just come up.

Because muscles, I think. I think, I think, I think, well I don't know about all that. I meant like that. I don't know if they're holding them in, you know? Well, take it easy. That's what you were doing. I wasn't know about all that. I meant like that. Yeah I don't know if they're holding them in you know yeah, well take it easy You're doing I was not doing that. You were jerking off your stomach. I was not you spit on your hands and did that I didn't touch it. There's dry dry, baby. There's no spit on this. Yes. I don't need no Come on now see now you're getting out of control all right Back to you looking like a bar of soap right so if it... If a soap was this color, I'd love it.

There are soaps that color. Mmm. Fucking... Free plug for them. Dr. Squatch has some soaps that color. You love that squat. I do kinda like it. Yeah. You know, if they wanna...

Tell me something. You know. Soap is a big one for me. I love it. Where do you... How do you stand? Like, what's your soap like? Walk me through your soap routine. And I'm not saying like... What does that mean? Like like how many soaps do you use during a regular shower? Oh, what is the method in which you use them? Is there an order because I have an order and a method well We've gone over the order numerous times. I will say this. I don't think I'm shampooing enough No, I think you're probably how many times do you wash your hair? I hardly that's good

Your hair should you should allow your hair to build up its natural oil. I get I get dandy Oh, so then you got fucked up head that you got a fucked up head Oh, man, you need to use some head and shoulders or something man. He's in toes Well, no, no, no the knees and toes you can you know, you use those enough when you're on all four of them Yeah, I think You pig. Okay, now you're way too excited. That was insane. Pig is coming back. Yeah, it's fucking...

Jumanji's going on here. That sounded like a fucking 10-foot phone started vibrating. What was that? Did you hear that? Now I'm talking to the camera. How do you know how do you know what big vibrations sound like, huh? Frank. You sitting on Sibians? Don't make me say huh Frank you sitting on Sibian don't make me say Sitting on Sibian. Yeah, I don't know no I would though um but with jeans on crazy Absolutely you wouldn't just hop on to see what's going on no why you too manly I'm too afraid Toxic I'm too afraid my masculinity is fucking Frank Grimer muck coughing very toxic Joey. Oh, okay. I was like where you going with that That was crazy. You're a dork doink dork and pig you're a dog one episode

Matter of like five minutes listen. I didn't say pig you just said what did I say? Call me a pig for what something I don't think I called you a pig I think I just said pig like ah Josh run the tape back Yeah, I don't you picked it you wouldn't get on our I just said pig like pig. Ah, Josh, run the tape back. You pigged it. Yeah, I don't want to see that. You wouldn't get on Ossibian though, because you think it's what? You think it's gay? I mean, I guess I would, but I have no desire to find out if I like getting my ass fucking tickled. I just peer pressured you into Ossibian.

You did. You did. That was awesome. I'd get on it though. Really? I don't even know what it looks like. By the way, you also, you said jeans, which is wild. Well, I'm not gonna like fucking sit on it raw. I'm not, there's so many things in between

raw and jeans, Joey. Sweats. Jeans would have a good barrier between me and the Sib. Yeah, but then if it would rub on you, that it would be like fucking starting a fire with some kindling. That is true. You're you have very dry pubes. You've often spoke about that. I don't know if I've ever said that out loud, but I feel like you're right. So it might start a fire. Very dry. So wait, so what is your...

You know, pews would just go up in flames. All hair, all hairs flamed. No, but like, pubes specifically. I saw a video recently of a Christmas tree going up and I was like, damn, that's quick. And I imagine pubes is like that. You know what, go home, do an experiment. Put some of your like, beard hair on the, you know, light that up. And light them.

Put some pubes, put some head hair, see what happens. Yeah. Stinky, hair stinks. It does stinky when it's burned. Yeah. Whoa speaking of hair Wanted to talk to that's a weird way to segue into yeah, we're not but I saw a thing that because I tweeted about it, but like Apparently there was a study done about hot dogs You know how we feel about hot dogs on the show and it was like

You know how we feel about hot dogs on this show and it was like Human DNA was found in American hot dogs clear fuse clear foods Analyzed 345 hot dog products and found human DNA in 2% of the samples and then I said I don't I don't Really know what they'd have to find in hot dogs that would make me stop eating them because I just found out that it isn't Human DNA so I'm gonna continue eating hot dogs even if you tell me there's 2% people in it. Hold on, hold on Let's do some simple math here. Sure. 345 hot dogs. What's 2%? What's 2% of that? Just a few dogs It's just like like 7. What's well, let's let's say 8. A third is half of that is what? Well 2% of a hundred is 2 so you have 6 right there. Like so let's say let's say 7 and change It's like 8. Maybe 6 and change. So let's say seven and change. It's like eight.

Maybe six and change. So let's say seven. I'll give you nine. It doesn't matter. I'm going to say this. If 2% of all of the hot dogs I've eaten in a season happens to have a little bit of human DNA in it, I consider that a job well done. I mean.

Bro, also if you tell me that if I eat my own finger, it'll taste like a hot dog Oh, we're gonna have a bigger problem. This finger is going down my throat. Let me tell you didn't Jesus But yeah, I'm eating parts of me probably I don't it'll make surviving See now I crash a lot easier if I know that humans taste like hot dogs If I got to eat my friend because we landed on the side. I'll tell you this God this is this is weekly. We need to be careful what we're gonna say. If it came down to a drastic,

heartbreaking situation like that, where we had to eat each other, and we cooked each other and it just tasted like hot dogs, honestly, happy accident, let me tell ya. Hell yeah dude, like Bob Ross happy accidents also regeneration Like if you cut I don't think I don't think humans Frank if you cut a piece out of my leg It's gonna grow back in some capacity We're not lizards Joey. I don't think like if I cut off your toe your toe doesn't come back

No, not a whole toe. I'm taking take a little chunk out of my I think I think Joey I think I can't make more tissue I don't know if your body's gonna think about cuts Cuts is different healing your skin. It fucking it seals it back up. Yeah Yeah, which is crazy when you think about that the fact that you get a cut and it just closes it goes away It's not I've gotten cuts so thin that I just like I remember once I cut this part of my hand here with a box cutter and it was so like I just held it like that to like go get a band-aid and Then when by the time I got to where I was going it had already sealed but like it still hurt, you know

Yeah, it's just but I I first of all what kind of human DNA are we talking because that's what I'm saying It could have been hair which I'll eat a hair, or I've eaten hair at restaurants probably! Hair. Spit. Piss. Piss? Well who's pissing into the hot dog tank? You're saying people that are fucking turkeys, Joey, I don't know. Who's fucking turkeys? You didn't hear about that?

Oh yeah, that's right. Butterball. Allegedly, there was a PETA had done an investigation, and they found people were like having sex with their turkeys, which they get some pretty juicy turkeys. And I guess- Like a live turkey or like the turkey, like a Thanksgiving turkey? I don't know, I'm not quite sure. What, which is worse?

The alive turkey. You sure about that? Yes, I am very positive. Okay, but of these several ways that I know that human DNA can transfer into something piss spit hair hair Skin skin skin, you know skin skin what it called if it's not there

It's like, you know, it's the idea of like ignorance is bliss if I don't know what's there. I'm I'm better off You know what I'm saying? I will say 2% is a lot It is a lot when you think about it. Yeah, it's more than like human error would allow. It's not nearly high. 6% isn't high enough for me to go, I'll be honest. I'll be honest. I'm a piece of shit consumer.

I'll just be like, what's the name of this company? I just won't have that company's hot dogs. I will go as far to go out of my way to be like, let's roll the dice. Oh, like let's just start eating them. Yeah. Here's the thing. You know us, the basement boys, we had another successful 2024, uh, which, um, you know, another dog sucking season down. It's funny. I actually stumbled upon the clip recently that we said that for next year, for 2025, this dog sucking season, the theme is going to be the

dog sucks you, which at this point in time, technically, technically, I think technically in a way this is kind of bringing to fruition the idea that like humans and hot dogs now have a symbiotic relationship we need each other to exist hot dogs wouldn't exist if we wouldn't eat them and we wouldn't exist unless we ate hot dogs so now it's good with the circle of life I've been watching a lot of Lion King lately hold on here I've stumbled upon a great point yeah the circle of life the lion eats the antelope, the lion dies, becomes the grass, the grass gets eaten by the antelope, circle of life. Hear me out.

A human is born. They live their life. They eat a hot dog. They then become part of the hot dog at some point in their natural or post-natural life. Explain that part. What are you talking about? The human DNA. Oh, got it. Whether it, whether it... whether it's not yeah, but they're not like You know making a hot dog six feet deep

Well, possibly what if it's like, you know What if the human DNA that is the hot dog stand is on a hot dog top of a cemetery, right? It could or what if I go to say, you know pay pay, you know pay my respect play my respects and lay my you know you know my family member to rest and I touch them one last time and then I Sprinkle that over the hot dog factory. Listen, that'd be discussed it would but I'm just saying circle of life Yeah, I mean, it's what fuels us all it's crazy. Like how long that was and how incoherent it was at the same time

At one point you said we wouldn't exist if we didn't eat hot dogs In theory in theory hear me out Frank. I've heard you inside and out and there's the theory is Debunked I don't think so. I think the theory is debunked. I don't think so. I think through time we have found that some of the greatest contributions to the culinary world have been phallic shaped. Hot dogs, subs, popsicles. It is only natural that we keep finding our way back. Like two ships upon the horizon eventually they will meet again and no matter what you do us humans will always find our way to hot dogs and hot dogs will always find their way to us sausages yeah them too yeah sausages are great but they're not technically I mean they're round because we shove it

in a thing they're not actually what do you they're round because we shove it in a thing. They're not actually What do you think a hot dog is brother? What is it's encasing? Yeah That's why when you bite into something snaps at you I kind of like that. Yeah, that's my favorite part So I kind of like when when when hot dogs have a little balloon knot at the end Oh like the little yeah, I know you like the little asshole at the end. Yeah, I did that I don't if it comes to a point I got and I bite it bite it off because you're I spit it out No, you don't I do

Why do you spit that out? But you'll eat the rest of the hot dog because I just don't I don't know like if the hot at the end of the hot Dog has a point I go And then a water balloon I can feel like the point and they look and I spit it out Do you at the same time? There's that human DNA that's getting into them if you ever have you ever stirred something and there's bubbles I take the spoon and I eat the bubbles first and I throw the spoon and then I drink the drink. What? You don't understand what I'm saying? If I'm if I'm stirring something right and it creates bubbles. What is what are you stirring? Soap? Chocolate milk. I don't know or like chocolate milk or a or a pro tea shake. Why do you have such a strong wrist? No, no, no, not about that Frank you if you have you ever stirred anything in your life I have I still roll the time. It makes bubble. I mean you're stirring fucking tea very lightly I don't stir tea pitch. I have it still the way I like it got it

So if you stir anything right quick enough where you're like trying to mix something then there becomes bubbles I take the spoon and I eat the bubbles and then I drink the drink You just want to feel them pop in your mouth. Don't you freak? No, I just feel like I don't I don't want the bubbles to be in every sip I'd rather to get them all out of the way Get them out of the way. They're part of the drink I know I mean they are the offspring of whatever action the chemical reaction that you just fucking underwent I don't cause I don't I don't like them I don't like them you ever want to eat the bubbles on like a beach like you see the beach has like bubbles and Frank those look disgusting

Oh, they look yummy. You like that. They look yummy because it's also like met with like Yeah, it looks like it could be pissed. It's the jizz of the ocean. Oh It does look like frothy piss. It does look like frothy piss. Yeah, but it does look like it would be fun to like There's like a paste also. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Maybe it maybe maybe I shouldn't seaweed sucks, too Dude, seaweed's delicious Delicious is insane seaweed. Have you dudes? Of course i've had seaweed. Okay, and you don't like it It barely has a taste and it's salty. What is dog about? You're bugging has a taste and it's salty what is the about your bug in that Frank explain how

this is like a savory thing it is a tape if you have like seaweed chips and a savory taste to it i don't know what savory means yeah mommy it's one of the flavor indicators on your tongue i know that but i don't i can't i can't like soy sauce see it has like a soy sauce is like salty that yeah but there's also a

new mommy richness to it right you know i see now you're saying things that I don't... I'm not saying anything! No, no, no, your brain should not already fucking comprehend! I know what umami is a thing. I just don't know what that tastes like to me. I just don't know. That's crazy. I know salty, I know sweet, and sour. And like, that's it. I haven't graduated to the other... What about spicy? Spicy, yeah. I know spicy. I know spicy spicy. Yeah, you remember that fucking That a science experiment we would do in like fifth and sixth grade where it would be like each of these cotton swabs or What are they called?

Q tips Q tips have a different flavor on them put them on different parts of your tongue and it's just like here is salty Here is sweet sweet here is spicy You don't remember that no, I don't think I did that oh That's right because you went to a fucking high school where they were just like all right each of these cotton balls have different types Of holy water on them put them on your skin to see what burns you you fucking sitting bastard That's you. That's you Joke sucked. But I am jealous. Did you guys ever cut open animals?

No! I didn't get to cut open animals. We didn't get to cut shit! This is bullshit because I think that it's an American staple that when you get to high school, eventually you take a class that you eventually fail. But before that, before you fail the class, you're able to cut open a frog and look at its insides.

And then you also see the kid who's like really into it. And you're like, that kid's gonna kill. I have a couple people at least and we didn't get to cut any any animal open I'll be I realize now as it's coming out of my mouth me being upset about that is a little weird it is Oh, but you know what though the American dream anytime you watch a movie about like high school or middle-aged kids They're always there's always science class where they're like today. We're cutting open a, and I'm just like bitch. What's that called dissect dissecting dissect dissect to me We were dissecting the fucking Bible you were I wasn't I was I was dissecting like circles and like the Parabolas and shit like that right you know it didn't I don't like can I ask you a serious question yeah? I do want to cut open a frog okay a dead one though, but not a live one

Don't what's that movie where the live ones he like freeze all of them Is that ET I don't I haven't seen ET in quite a while ET I Could be completely so fucking wrong on that. I'll say this. Yeah, I will Shoot for dissecting a frog. I will fall back on a chocolate frog in Harry Potter those bitches Look delicious. Yeah, but they were alive. Oh, yeah. So you ever hold a frog. They're so clammy You gotta know that I don't think I have remember a frog. I almost ran over one my lawnmower You saw it last second this thing got out of there. Damn.

Yeah. I almost ran over a bird like the other day. They don't get out of the way anymore. They're so bold. Yeah, whatever, fuck them. Let them go. I know, but I can't. I'll just feel mad.

You can, babe. I don't know. I ran over one once. I felt bad for it. I'm sorry. It was an accident. PETA. Yeah.

But I was just like, it happened. Now what what I would feel less crazy about a bird But if I ran over like a raccoon, I'd feel horrific. I would feel bad unless it was a possum No, I feel very I like possums more than I know hell no, you like raccoons more actually I might like hell. Yeah like raccoons more you ever seen a possum. Yeah. Yeah, no, you're right Oh, you're a king's are way better. Yeah, do you better? Yeah, you're rightons more. You ever seen a possum? Yeah, yeah, no you're right. Those little evil looking bitches. Yeah dude. Way better, yeah you're right. Ferrets. What it's extinct that thing. No, I like ferrets.

You like them? They're kinda little cute guys. They're little cute guys. I don't like them. If you could pick three animals to extinct right now, who would it be? Ferrets. Crazy, but okay. Uhhhhhh All fucking bugs. All of them. Legit every single bug. Every single one of them. And that includes arachnids. Mostly arachnids I would say. Mhmm.

And... Mosquitoes. Fuck outta here. Mosquitoes? Listen I used to be on board with that. You like them now? But like they're like pivotal to like the environment like they are eaten by a lot of different like you know like bats and Bats eat mesquite mesquite how much how much nourishment can you get?

I kind of like spiders. I fuck with spiders spiders, and I are like this you know so like I don't want to get rid of them Ticks see you later ticks get so stupid flies I don't want to get rid of them ticks see you later ticks get so stupid flies So she here do we flies but flies flies? You know like they have a purpose, but they're so they are annoying They are really horse flies at least give me that get the fuck out of here with a big fly absolutely Hell no, I don't need that but anything like big that you would like we are we could do it out that I Feel about hippos they're cool I like hippos do you like them more than rhinos though hell no if it was a choice between keeping rhinos or hippos

I like rhinos because rhinos are also more docile hippos that kill more people in the world I think like any other animal that is true they are they are um yeah I wanna I wanna like hang out with a rhino just for like an afternoon, just see what he's doing. Because I feel like, see, this is where I'm nuts, and I know that you know this. Oh yeah.

But like a really big animal. If I could just get really close to this. You're confident that you can, I know what you're saying, you're confident. If I can get really close to its eye and just have it look at me and I can look at it. I feel like it could I could Listen I have said this and and you have called me crazy for this I believe that if you give me and a gorilla like a good 10 15 minute vibe check

They won't hurt me because I will be like we'll just connect on a deeper level. I will I'll do this I'll admit once you do this and they do that you're in baby rhinos can't do that shit I but I know but like I will admit in the right environment that could happen We've seen Jane Goodall our girl. I don't know why she's our girl, but she is a girl who has done that so she's how she hung out She's done. She's done with no. No. She's boy. She was boys with the gorilla. I think she's dead But I don't know if she's dead honest Honestly, I don't know. I'm good all by the way. They get her by the way I'd know no, no, no, don't ask who they are. But you know, yeah but the the

But like a rhino or like an elephant or something like that like if I or a whale like I think if you put me Put me next to the big eye of a whale and I'm telling you right now, the thing's gonna like. No it ain't, Joe, cause that means you're in the deep ocean, you fuck. You're dead, dude. This thing just needs to just fucking wag its,

do you know? Wag its tail. Do you know how big blue whales are? The eye is probably like that big, it's massive. Joey, dude, it got to look at me It's got to feel the vibe if you you believe you can connect and vibe with a blue whale Bugging yeah land animal. He's not gonna try and hurt me. It's a boy. Yeah, he's my guy. Okay But he's not gonna try and hurt me cuz he can't like he's not interested in me

Oh, he is definitely interested in that and if you even even fucking have one small like thing Oh one little tick this thing will just crush you bro. They don't fight They they're they like plankton and shit they do krill actually yeah same thing like no it's not I mean it's similar No, they're both like whatever they are those little things no yeah but anyway, I would like I think that if I get close to a whale and I could like get on it and like look in its face it would like get it they would get what I'm trying to go I think I think with me it would be a gorilla that's that's dangerous as hell Joey you

want to be with the largest fucking animal on the planet dude being in a room with a gorilla is way more dangerous Than being in the open ocean with a fucking blue whale a boat right here Oh, oh yeah sure fine put a fucking piece of plexiglass you're talking about protection. Oh no no no I'm talking No, I'm like you think you think seriously yes, you think it's less dangerous to be in for 10 minutes Let's say yeah the open ocean. Yes with a blue whale with a boat next to it Okay, you can have up you can have a boat anywhere. Yeah, then me on that corner and a gorilla on that corner 100 million percent.

You're in a small room with something that if it decides, it just had a bad day, that it could grab you by the foot and throw you against the ceiling. I have watched Tarzan, okay? I have watched Mighty Joe Young, King Kong. Mighty Joe Young. You remember that?

Great movie. I believe that I have the ability to to I'm not saying communicate with this animal But let it know that I am like passing all the fucking vibe checks. I am docile. I'm happy for them I respect them. They want to be the the the the alpha of this domain I know I am the real alpha given him an Uzi or a machine gun of some sort but I'll let them believe that they are the alpha. And I will, I will let it have its time.

I, you know, I'll do the thing they do on planet of the apes, planet of the apes. You know, how'd that work out? There was a war between man and apes because man tried to attack apes. I wouldn't.

It bothers you, doesn't it? I only wear sunglasses. Let's dive into that.

Why does it bother you so much, Frank? Are you angry? It doesn't. Joey, this is a show where we like to make fun of each other and have quickie banter. Quickie banter! What's that? I don't know. You might be dead.

Yeah, I don't know what's going on. You might be turned into a mummy. That's how I imagine mummies talk. I see what you're doing. You see that, right, bitch? Frank knows that we're talking about pyramids next. Yeah, because I don't know if you guys saw, but allegedly.

You look like a mummy. I mean, it sounds like, if a mummy were to talk, people are just like, ugh, no, it would be, you're a papa. It would be like the first Dumbledore. You'd be very thirsty. It'd be very, ugh, ugh. Yeah, the first Dumbledore.

You know that I'm talking about the first Dumbledore. He'd be very thirsty. It'd be very, very thirsty. Yeah, the first Dumbledore. You know what I'm talking about, the first Dumbledore? Yeah. Yo, you know what? Listen, kudos to the actor, Richard Harris, was the original Dumbledore. Yeah. But could you have imagined him being Dumbledore throughout the rest of the show?

Bro, he's not fighting anything. Listen, and spoiler alert for the Harry Potter books and movies, but like Could you have imagined that he would like like look at how animated Dumbledore gets in the last you know Like two or three books or something like that. That's what I'm saying. He like is like Dude that scene is so fucking sick which one when they go to Spoiler again with Harry fucking pot when they go to get one of the Horcruxes and he and Harry gets like pulled under the water And it all he just sees fire and he just fucking shows. Yeah

Double-door is just fucking oh fucking fire tornado or some shit. Yeah. Listen man. I gotta say He can move he can move he can move. I don't know if it was him I know what I heard that was so it was it was game bone You know what I heard which was so sick that the actor that played him in the later movies Michael Gambon RIP Gambon they're both down. They took them both and they took McGonagall and they took Hagrid crazy It feels like so and it took my voice mom also Tripoli crazy, bro. I feel like so there is behind this like all of Gryffindor is going down All the guys who are evil or a greater Gryffindor

No, but he was like very he was adjacent. He was Griffin. He was in the original order of the Phoenix Yeah, I'm just saying like I Forgot what I was saying damn I'm just saying like I don't know where's I going with that? I have no oh, I heard that Michael game on the actor that played Dumbledore would hide Cigarettes in his outfit so dude Listen listen don't smoke cigarettes Unless you're fucking Dumbledore.

Yeah. Can you imagine being a fucking kid and just like on a movie set where there's an animatronic dragon and a basilisk coming out of a stone mouth? Although that was the original one. Alright, let's do third movie where there's a fucking werewolf and shit and then you just see Dumbledore just fucking... Banging heaters just Rip it just hacking darts that'd be awesome. He's like yeah ten points Yeah, you know and he's just sitting back. He's a giant. He's also kind of a drunk He's got a glass of brandy and just cigarettes, and he's just like

So I so I said so Voldemort like get the fuck out of here shit Horcruxes I barely know her Yeah, Malfoy. I don't know Malfoy My gonna go now for you dad looks like a hot woman. What is that about?

Where's your nose kid? disgusting that thing Riddle me this you little bitch. He just has a fucking Oh man, how cool would that be if they just had a behind the scenes of Dumbledore

just posted up. Also one thing I really notice about that movie is how dirty Mr. Filch is. Oh yeah. He's dirty. He's like, I'm in trouble. I'm watching terrible trouble Yeah, he also looks like he's got a fake eye, but I think it's real

This dude He's so dirty so dirty in that move and that cat's a dirty little bitch, too Oh, you work at the at the most famous wizarding school Where you sleep in one bath brother? Yeah, like once one bath once one bath. You know take a bet. It's magic Do this and you'll be clean well no no no he was um he's something called a squib filch He's born to magical parents, but he is not magic What a fucking loser I feel bad because I feel like that's like you know now we're getting into like you know

He was fine I will say imagine being a non magical person working at that school And they're just like go clean it up, and it's like you fucking clean up bitch you fucking yeah, bro. You fucking won that shit I just watched Hermione fix fucking Harry's Glasses with one flick of her wrist you want me to clean up this fucking dead troll the fuck Why am I fixing the stairs bro do a fucking do a little repair?

Yeah, just fucking She splashes into water and now I gotta clean it up good old filch. Yeah, that's honestly disgusting That's so fucked up. No they got him as they got him as a servant I don't like that shit me neither and I feel like when he was walking around you could hear chains now. I'm starting now

I understand I'm on his side honestly now I can understand why he was such a fucking miserable prick that only loved this cat Because it's the only thing that treated him like he was anything in this world wait wait. What was his cat's name, Mrs.. Norris? You knew I would know that he's having he's Frank. He's he's fingering that cat's butt so fucking hard Yes, dude. He's a weirdo It's what it's it's it's like it's you know and and listen Dumbledore Cuz he's to blame Yeah, it's your house to blame. It's your place. It's your house. You know

It's your house. He's to blame. It's his place. It's his place. It's your house. You know? You're kind of fucked up to this guy. You know what though? Maybe he did wrong. Maybe he was like a former bad guy or something like that. Because I also just forgot. Apparently Dumbledore was gay. Was he gay? Yeah, that's what fucking...

One of the few things JK Rowling has said after the books came out that is not... Oh, she was like, he's gay. She's like, he's gay and he shits on the floor Wait what yeah, dude. I missed the shit on the floor. Yeah, she said they were just like oh like does he wear any? And they're like no she they crap on like they crap and that sounds like a troll job there I think she was fucking around. I mean it's really hard to tell take most of what she says. Yo has anyone Well actually never mind her mind is the only person in that whole movie who has ever gone to the bathroom I? Always think about that in movies not about

About school girls going to fucking take pisses in bathroom when she goes to the bathroom And then she's washing her hands on the troll shows up in the first movie. That's the only no she was crying in the bathroom That's right. She was crying. She was crying because Ron was being a piece of shit, right? He was being a Leviosa not leviosa. No wonder she got no friends. Yeah You're you're you're a poor redhead. Yeah, you fucking me you you have you have dirt in your nose bitch. Talk about hand me down Wizardry droves. I'm just saying droves. Not only have droves not only have I never met Hermione Granger

the actress that portrayed her or the real life character I'll go to bat for her dog you talk shit about Hermione Granger you're gonna get fucked up dude that's why she got fucking Victor Crumb my guy was like yeah dude this guy came and he was just like I like you and she's like alright I'm thrushing

and she's like fine yeah dude so cool Ben Roethlisberger Yeah, but tell me he didn't look like Ben Roethlisberger. I don't wait Like a Russian dude no a little bit like Ben Roethlisberger in my opinion whatever we've been on Harry this is the pyramids But I was gonna say imagine like we were saying imagine like Dumbledore glass of brandy smoking cigarettes I imagine no wonder Voldemort was so afraid of him. He was probably being like such like a mm-hmm Like sassy with him and all that stuff you know Voldemort would be like we have to get rid of non-pure bloods

and he's just like Let's fuck him first Let's fuck him first. Hahahaha Just roasted him, just dragging him. Just be like nice robe, Snape. Yeah. Uh, but you know. It is what it is. Anyway, uh,

Yeah, Mr. Beast, he rented the pyramids. Which is the thing I didn't think you could do. Hold on. He rented the pyramids for a hundred hours. If this becomes a clip, Us originally introducing this, pyramids which is the thing I didn't think you could do. Hold on. He rented the pyramids for a hundred hours. If this becomes a clip, us originally introducing this, the 20 minutes of Harry Potter talk, and now this part is gonna be incredible for someone to cut through.

I don't, I don't think. No, yeah, apparently, what's the price? Was there a price revealed? Fucking no. It's gotta be in the- Something crazy. Several millions. How about the fact that you can rent all three of the Great Pyramids?

hourly a hundred hours crazy I First of all no matter what no matter cuz listen we we've established that the Great Pyramids are like structural marbles. Yeah They're old enough that I'm not getting in them. Oh, I'm going right you're going in yeah get there unless I know there's beetles in there There's two there's have you seen the mummy Yeah, there's beetles dude There's beetles. There's books with cool locks on it those I like I do like those and then the thing opens up You know what I'm talking about. I wouldn't get any, I wouldn't go down any paths that were tight.

You know what I mean? Like I'd need a big hallway to enter the... I'm gonna go one further, I'm not getting in it. Would you get on it? On top of it? Sure. Yeah! Yeah, me too.

I would climb a couple. Not all the way to the top. Oh, I'd go up there. What if it just starts to go? Who? The pyramid, brother. Go what, collapse? Yeah. Then, I'd go up there. What if it just starts to go whoo the pyramid brother go what collapse? Yeah, and down I go like you're going you're going down like I'm gonna do you're gonna be all the way down to the dump D. Yeah, I'm gonna what am I gonna do? It's not gonna fall down. It's it's Frank. It's been up for how long? It's going down when I climb it. I mean honestly with certain luck, maybe you never know I will say that I

Don't know why anyone in their right mind would go poking around those places I'm telling you this right now if I rented the pyramids and you refuse for refuse to go in them I'd kill you right there if you rented the pyramids. I would go in them because it's like oh This doesn't happen like this is only for right this is but oh I'm calling I'm keeping my hands in my pockets I'm not gonna lie and I'm not touching anything I'm not reading anything I wouldn't murmur anything I would and I'd be scared about you know kicking up some spiritual dust he's gonna go in there and say what does that

say on the wall and then and then I mean you can't read Out loud you do it in your head don't and even then I would just just look down probably just looked out and don't touch Anything right don't touch step very carefully, too I imagine there's a ton of booby traps in there definitely boobies definitely boobies and I also wouldn't open the sarcophagus thing I wouldn't do that. Although I would love to see like a mummified. You are a lot braver than I am. What's brave? It's a dead body.

Joey. Spirits. There is enough like media about mummies. Frank, there's three George of the Jungle movies about it, okay? Mummies. Who's the guy? Brendan. Frazier. Don't you dare disrespect me. I love Brendan. Frazier. I know you are a big fan of bedazzled and not just for Brendan Frazier,

but also for Elizabeth Hurley. Oh my God. Love Elizabeth Hurley. Yeah. Yeah. Um, I'm just saying, I don't know what he's going to do in there. This might between this, between the drones, between the weather, climate, whatever, this might be the end of us. He goes in there, he says one wrong thing, and all these streamers have weird names. He might be like, uh, like, he might be like talking about like oh here is Jacksepticeye And he might fucking bring upon

Some crazy mummy. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah, I agree uh Whatever if he gets cursed or something. It's that's on him. You know it's on all of us Well, it's definitely gonna spill that he comes out and he's Yeah, like this and then we're all dead dude if I hear one mention of emo tep oh my god what's that you remember emo tep from the mommy is that the bald guy what's the thing what the hell great now I'm gonna end up now you're dead dude I'm gonna end up on those websites where it's like he's doing the thing he's who's that diddy's party wore the sweatshirt too!

When you get to the point where people start to speculate and now you're in conspiracies of like, Look, he's on TV doing this, and it's like it means something. I will say that it's not even just fame, there's a certain amount of wealth that comes along with that. Get me to a certain level of wealth You can say I am in bed with any cult that you want I don't really care as long as my checks clear and I am safe See, I'm I'm too silly for that type of shit because if someone if people are saying it What am I to do now?
