Speaker 1 (00:01):
The play is in confused. Podcast is rated M for
marijuana no minors, but your audience is only okay, Hello,
what a rough start. They don't even know. They don't
even know, because no, they had no idea. Yeah, for
the listening audience, just joining us. I wish I was
recording for the behind the scenes here, but Becker was
(00:22):
just so unhappy with how his headphone sounded were too loud.
So we just spent the past fucking twenty minutes up, down, up, down,
twenty minutes down, down, up, and then I wouldn't touch it,
and he'd say, yeah, that's perfect, right there, whatever, perfect
perfect four minutes by the way, Dick, all right, geez alvi,
(00:42):
this is what I'm dealing with right now. I see.
It was really funny though, when he was in here
before playing Spanish music and you were watching him dance,
and we were both kind of like the whitest motherfucker
I've ever seen in your life. I was just showing
you the music that I'm forced to play as a
very white DJ. Sometimes and some it's funny because a
lot of times, see it's I'm glad you bring this
up because I agree. I agree that i'm a very
(01:05):
white looking individual. I'm exceptionally white, just looking but acting
very very What do you think the dancing was pretty
caucas Well, I tell people when they request can you
play Spanish music, I'm like, I only have like the
white people Spanish songs. I like anything by Pitbull and
(01:25):
Don Zac, Carduuro and Gasolina And that's a pretty white
person Spanish Gasolina. And what else is another white person
Spanish song? How do you pronounce it? Is it Calabria
by inure? But is that Spanish? Is it Spanish? I
(01:55):
think we're offending a lot of people right now. No,
we're not. You know what, you know what I trying? Well,
Alvi and I are trying man. So I tell you,
I uh that the algorithm sometimes can get a little scary,
right do you ever do you ever like scroll on
social media and think, man, the algorithm is whoa.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Uh like what you're you're thinking about something or you're
talking about something, and all of a sudden it appears
on your your timeline that kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Well, that and uh, all of a sudden. As of recently,
I keep getting these tiktoks and reels. So both on
two separate platforms, TikTok and Instagram reels. I'm getting these
videos about quitting marijuana. But the funny thing is that
on on TikTok, I guess you get like censored on
TikTok if you say marijuana, if you say weed, so
they call it quitting gardening. And there's this whole there's
(02:40):
two dude, There's like a billion videos that I've come
across now, and I'm not looking for these. What is
this the universe telling me that I need to cut
it back on the marriage Juana, on the gardening. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
See, you can't ask me that kind of question because
I think it's good for me, So I I don't
think I don't have to quit.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
But I tell you, though I'm not a quote, I
tell you I'm not a quitter. I'm seeing these videos
of these people that are like, I smoked every day,
all day for the past fifteen years of my life,
and now I'm a whole new person and I opened
up this whole new world and I can't believe. I
can't believe all the opportunities that I passed up so
I could sit around and be high and lazy, and
(03:17):
I'm thinking, oh fuck, that might be me. Really, I
think me. You think to me, you take every opportunity
and run with it. What are you talking about? You
don't pass up opportunity that could be doing more if
I wasn't stone Are you out of your mind? I
could be doing well, I could be conquering the world,
but instead I sit around and get high all day.
(03:38):
Is that what you want to do? You want to
conquer the world? Well, I mean, in so many words,
in so many words? What words? Then? What? What? How
do you want to conquer the world? What do you
want to do? Uh? Things? I don't know. I don't
know what. I don't know what I want to do.
I just know that I could be doing more. Oh, okay,
you do a lot of things. Yeah, yeah, you worked
until one point thirty in the morning last night. Now
(03:59):
we're doing a podcast at one that was twelve hours ago,
and more work? Are you doing more work today after this? Hopefully? Please?
Hopefully that's how eager he is to conquer the world.
I just worked seventy hours, but hopefully I can work
more after the show. No, I give it up to you, man,
(04:21):
I'm very envious. How often do you work? How many hours?
I'm an we're from. I can't even talk. How many
hours a week do you work?
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Anywhere from forty five to sixty?
Speaker 1 (04:31):
What do you do? I'm a truck driver, sick.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
What a cool guest to have on because you don't
really get to talk to a lot of truck drivers
and what their life is like on the road.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
It must be chaos, because it's chaos. For the last thing,
I always said, I the next job that I have
when I get a real job after I'm done. It's
this whole radio thing. When I get a real job,
I want to be a driver because you sit and
you listen to your music and you vibe out all day. Right.
Pretty accurate for the most part.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Ain't nobody telling me what I can and I cannot
listen to listen to whatever music I want. I can
listen to you guys. I can do all that well,
which is very nice. By the way, Yes, thank you.
I'm on the show. To show is a good time.
Like being on the show right now is like it's
wild because the podcast I'm listening podcasts I'm listening to,
I'm on it right now.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
It's pretty cool. Sick. Wow. Uh No, I've always thought
about being a truck drover. However, I don't think that
I could do. You drive like a big, big rig,
like a big thing. Yeah, I don't think I could do.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Forty eight feet trailer behind me. Now I do flatbed.
It's not dry and it's not fifty three feet, but
I still got to get that thing in some pretty
ridiculous spots.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Yeah. How many tries did it take to get your
your is it a CDL? How many tries one time?
One time? Dude? It's pretty is it like known for
people to like have multiple tries for that kind of happens? Yeah?
What's the success rate on like a first try? Do
you know? Couldn't tell you accurately?
Speaker 2 (05:51):
We can ask Andy about that. How many people pass
their CDL license on the first try?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Jesus?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Yeah? And he burps a lot? Just sone? No, yeah,
not Ai. Andy doesn't burp.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
I do.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
I tell you? Why burp? Because I'm drinking a lot
of soda. Recently I went vaping and I picked up
another habit soda. Why what kind of soda? Coke? Any
soda but coke. At least it's coke instead of PEPSI
don't I don't mind PEPSI though, I drink pepsi too.
Wild cherry pepsi, I think is better than cherry coke. Yesterday,
I was down at Celtic Fest and I wanted a
soda really bad. I was like, I want to die
(06:23):
of coke, right, And I go to this vendor and
they were like, oh, we only have coke zero. Would
you like that? And I said absolutely the frick no.
She was like, really, to go, that is very different.
Do you even remotely close? Like it doesn't even taste right,
It's it's weird. Zero is weird. Very Most people will
say diet coke taste weird too, But yeah, it's one
of my Which one was it pepsi or was it
(06:43):
coke that had the recently the Oreo flavored cola? I
think it was horrible. I think it was coke. I
think it was coke, and I bought it because I thought,
this is interesting, let me try it. It was awful.
It was so disgusting.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
I don't venture into like flavored things like that. You know,
if I were a coffee drinker, I don't think i'd
be into these like flavored coffees and stuff.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Here's a question, soda machines, would you rather have like
the old school, there's seven and you pick the one
that you want. Or would you rather have the big
red Coca Cola machine where it's like the touchscreen and
you go make your own?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
See I'm such a purist, dude. I don't like like
jazz episodas, so I would I don't know. I would
love a Fountain diet coke machine in my apartment though.
That would be amazing, Like a diet.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
People do that. Yeah, I know you can get that.
It's really not that hard and nor is it that
expensive and nor well have my Christmas list this year,
so well, I'm not buying it for you. Well, no,
you might. What a gift that would be the only shit,
here's your own at home? Boy this year?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
You're getting cold bitch? Anyway, how many tries a right?
What's the success rate on first attempts on it?
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Andy, what's up man? How are you a jeel? I'm
doing great? Thanks for asking. What's the success rate of
somebody getting their CDL license on the first try?
Speaker 3 (07:59):
So right now?
Speaker 5 (08:00):
The success rate for getting a CDL on the first
try is generally pretty decent, around eighty five to ninety
percent of folks pass the written knowledge part on their
first attempt. The driving skills is a bit tougher, with
about a seventy percent first time pass rate, meaning roughly
thirty percent met a second go.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
It's overall not too shabby. That's pretty good at I'll
be good for you. You're part of that seventy percent.
How many attempts do you think it would take you
to pass your CDL truck? Maybe that's yeah, a few, yeah, yeah,
Like I don't know if I would do. I want
to be a driver, but I don't think that I
want to drive the big drugs. That's what's part of
what's all part of that like test? What kind of
(08:35):
things do you have to do? So the actual like
road test itself. You literally, and as crazy as is
going to sound, your first test is literally the back
of the truck straight back.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
You start in one spot and any other thing. Make
sure the trailer trucker one like one line okay, not
crooked and not kicked off the right or left straight back.
Then you have another one that's called the offset, and
that's where you literally start off on so your left side,
they'll have cone set up towards the right. You back
the trailer up in between the cones on the right side.
By the time you're done, you need to be straight
(09:07):
in that parking zone and they'll have it where you
were supposed to stop the truck. If you go past
it or out of it, you're gonna get hit for that.
You know.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
There's a CDL school like up the street from where
we're recording.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Yeah, they do it in the parking lot of this
old business that's shut down because of the economy being shitty.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Thank you, that's where they do it. Yeah, meet the
press episode. We've been teasing it man, Yeah, yeah, I
know our listening audience is just dying for us to
talk about politics. Yeah. We might be the only podcast
in all of America is not talking about politics. Right.
We have been skimping around and around there twenty episodes.
By the way, well is episode number twenty, and we're
(09:43):
gonna keep going around it, skirting around it just to
avoid any episode twenty. So we just needed four more
and there it's four to twenty. Yeah, what four hundred
more for? Yeah? Yeah, four hundred All right, let's press
the start. Okay on that note, great, where is the
star button? Oh? Here it is.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
Welcome to the Blazed and Confused podcast with Becker and Joel,
The trivia podcast where the questions are high and.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
So are they.
Speaker 6 (10:13):
Hat's time to pluck your curiosity and light up some knowledge.
Though Blazed and Confused podcast starts.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Now.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
You know, I think about this every week, and now
I'm finally gonna say it. Maybe I was high when
I wrote that, but the open says where the questions
are high and so are there?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Yeah, I know I think about that all the time
and how it doesn't make sense. It doesn't make any
but it also does make sense because of the kind
of podcast.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Doesn't make sense. I don't think it does. You think
it makes sense the stakes are high and so are they?
Speaker 3 (10:48):
That would probably because I haven't thought about it myself.
I've listened like the questions or I know where they're
going with this, but maybe switched the weird huh?
Speaker 1 (11:00):
All right, we should fix for their creative genius behind that.
I guess that was fucking ai Andy. You can blain
man kicking, motherfucking episode twenty though. We made it through
twenty episode twenty with that incorrect interest. So we've had
twenty episodes of a weird intro that doesn't make any
sense cool with me. I'm backing, by the way. That's
my friend Joel. Hello. Today we're joined by Alvi, who
(11:20):
is a longtime friend of mine. You've worked in all
kinds of different businesses and careers, but being a truck
driver's pretty interested. What would you say is the most colorful.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Or hmm, the strongest expletive you've yelled at somebody because
of their poor driving while you've been on the road
as a truck driver.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
We can bleep it out, go ahead, give it to
it's somebody. Just cut you off, Alvi, what are you
gonna say to him? Cock suck mother? Oh, I'm not
gonna do it. I'm gonna be good. I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
It's hard to do it on the fly because I'm
so emotional at that moment. It comes off. And if
you were on the phone with me and mother drivers,
we'll come up with some creative stuff. We've had people
death of three generations of family, just all that. Like
I had my one dude was like, I hope that
when you go home that you find your grandmother laying
(12:11):
in the bathroom like broken neck on side of shower.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Just cut me off. Okay, you said that or not me.
I'm not that wild he said that to you. No,
we were so at work.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
There's about six of us on our own little conference call,
and we're all talking to each other all day, and
we jump on off the phone all day. So everyone's
going through stuff together. And you got to spread up
and down the East coast. You gotta do an NYC.
You got me in the Jersey Shore, you got another
person in New York, up state. We're all over the place, Jersey, PA, Delaware, Maryland, everywhere,
So everyone's going through in different places, so there could
(12:44):
be random like we could be talking right now. I'm like, yeah, man,
I had a really good day, you stupid son of
a bitch. I swear to God, if I see you
in the streets somewhere, I'm gonna drag in a dark
oully and stab it to your peek yourself and walk away.
Speaker 6 (12:55):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Wow. And then after that you're like, I shouldn't have
said that. You know, I feel pretty calm with them,
good with it. See now as I've gotten older, I
am like, oh, I shouldn't say those kind of things.
And I and I kind of try to think of
like more like substitution.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Yeah, like friendlier things like I hope you have trouble
sleeping for a week, you dick, You know that kind
of thing, just to chase there.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
It's real good someone watching, you know what I mean.
Just I'm getting older.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
I tried to substitute words for a while, Like in
the beginnings of my driving, I was like, I'm not
going to be that angry truck driver. I wanted to
be the cool dude's driving. Oh yeah, you coming off,
no big deal, it's not no. That lasted about six
months and I was like a raging nut.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Wow, I've always wanted to ask a truck driver. It
appears as though the trucks like don't drive nearly fast enough.
But that's one thing that I think would bother me
if I was a truck driver. I furiated by it
every day that it's just too fucking slow, right.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Is that a rule that you guys have to follow,
Like they just don't get out of their way that
fast When you're hauling thirty to forty pounds. It ain't
gonna move that fast and ain't gonna stop that fast either.
But people like to play games with that too, so
it's oh, that's also I've never thought about that. It
doesn't stop all that, ye yet people like the breakcheck.
(14:10):
Just Friday, I was getting on three nine to the
switch over to seventy eight, some dude in the Wrangler
rips passed me.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
I think I know who it was. Oh no, what
color was the Wrangler? It was a darker color. Oh no,
Like what time was that at? I don't know. I
don't know where I've never heard of that. Where's three nine?
You mask? Where's this magic three nine's? Big three nine? Aware?
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Three nine to seventy eight, like right before you hit
Cedar Crest and all that. Oh no, I don't know.
Please know there's a lot.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Of Wranglers out there anyway. Continue.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
So this this individual rent I'm in my own personal
vehicle went past me and a company I won't say,
but it was a rig and he jumped in front,
and I'm like driving behind. All of a sudden, I
see the break lights on the rig and the whole
trailer almost stood up, and it did again and stood
up again. Like he's locking the brakes up pretty good.
I could smell him, and I'm like, is he freaked out?
(15:09):
Because you know that last bend before you merge on
the seventy eight. If you're not familiar with it, it
could sneak up on you. And in a rig if
you're top heavy, you could tip it.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Yeah, but I uh went around. I'm like, maybe the
guy's freaking out. You never know.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
And there was a wrangler basically about seven inches in
front of this truck and I'm like, you freaking say
this right now.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
And he was break checking the rig. Yeah, why'd you
do that? Joel? I don't. I don't. I don't break check.
I've never dropped the later. I didn't break anything.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Calm down, that's all right, I think, Oh, look at
that backup later. Hey, we have questions for Abby. We
should get into that. The wrapid round, Yes, brought yet
to you by it looks.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Like, uh, what is that? What deoderant do you have
over there? A lot of old spiders. It must be
brought to you by an old spice this week? Why
do you have three? Actually you have three more upstairs
because they were on so oh you called it. You
called for what like six? I have no idea I
bought honestly. So here's the real reason why I have
six of them is because I accidentally I buy my
dealdor it on Amazon. I don't know why, but I do.
(16:13):
And I accidentally clicked order twice on it, so two
of them showed up. Okay, but like you know, you're
gonna use it, so you wanna go to waste? Yeah, Jesus,
the soda makes you burn.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
I know.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
But you're also an adult, all right, I know, But
what are you supposed to do? Every adult knows what
they're supposed to do?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
How do you hold that in? You're not to hold
a burpen, or at least hide it and go on.
You know what happened? Do you hold a burpen? It's gas.
It comes out to the other fucking end. You choose
what you want?
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Yeah, you do that as well. Yes, we're screwed either way. Hey,
better out than angel.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Right, Yeah, the game begins into three? All right, what's
the first three words of the US Constitution? We the
people got? What is ninety minus thirty four? Jeez? Really, dude,
wrapping round twenty something something? What does the acronym CFO
(17:08):
stand for? Shut the past? How many pairs of chromosomes
does a human usually have in each cell? Twenty four?
What's the name of the fictitious scientist created by Mary
Shelley Pass.

A plague is a collective group of this kind of insect,
a plague of them mosquitoes.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
Pass?
Speaker 2 (17:38):
What shape has five sides? There's a building in DC

think they changed the name of that place. It's no
longer the Pentagon. It's the Be careful, isn't it like

the the House of War?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
The House of War? What it's called now? No? No,

Speaker 4 (18:06):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, the Department It used to be the
Department of Justice, and now it's like the Department of War. Yeah,
that sounds good. Pentagon, Yeah, that's a five side. They
don't call it.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
No, they changed it, right, No, they still call it
the Panage. I thought they changed it. No, I'm sorry, anyway,
misinformation being spread right here?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Really really anyway, really you missed a couple of those.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
You got the first one, though, What are the first
three words of the US Constitution?
Speaker 1 (18:31):
We the people? What is it?
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Ninety minus thirty four? That was fifty six? You almost
got that. You said twenty three. No, he said twenty something.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
What does the acronym CFO stand for chief financial officer?
Speaker 1 (18:44):
I wouldn't know that.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
How many pairs of chromosomes does a human usually have
in each cell? I think I put that down. That's wrong. Actually,
I think it's twenty three. I put the answer is
twenty four. We gave that to you.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
I think it's twenty three though, like twenty three, and
me right, sure, I think it's twenty three. Yeah, it
wouldn't have never known about the chromosome. Now, how many
are you supposed to have? Twenty three? But I put
twenty four, So we're gonna have to look that one.
Is that right? Let's look it up now, Okay, good, nice,
real good, real good? Should I have? How many chromosomes
do I have? Or should you have? Should you have?
(19:18):
How many chromosomes should you have?
Speaker 5 (19:23):
Well, if we're talking about humans in a general biological sense,
typically you've got forty six chromosomes, twenty three pairs.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Twenty three pairs? All right? Cool? Nice? Thanks Andy? Yeah, wait,
so you you guessed twenty four and we said correct,
but it's actually twenty three. It's twenty three. Yeah, yeah,
twenty three. And there's any typo there? Yeah, you know
they went bankrupt now I know, And isn't it weird?
It is like, I'm not you know, I'm not like
a conspiracy theorist or anything, but it is a little
stranger to a company like that who has everybody's freaking DNA?
(19:55):
Now just is the vanishes? Yeah? Yeah, what happens all
the DNA? I think they sold it, right, and they
sell it to some other company like that?
Speaker 4 (20:02):
How do you tell your DNA? That's scary, that's very unsettling.
He's spreading this information. I can't really, this is bad, man.
I keep guessing at the news. A lot of people
do that. I'm not one of them. Tell you all right, that.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Could be a whole new podcast, a lot different than
this one. Pagon yeah ship anyway, moving on, what's the
name of the fictitious scientists created by Mary Shelley?
Speaker 2 (20:29):
That was Victor Frankenstein. I had no idea that Frankenstein
had a first name, Victor?
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Who knew that.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Plague is a collective group of locusts? Remember those loud aspects?
Do you have these these giant windows?
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Do you know what does that mean? That when you
hear about like the Great plague, you know it happened
way back when. Was that like brought on by a
bunch of locusts? Is that how that works? I don't
think so. You know, plague the sickness is it is
the sickness carried by No, I don't know. That's just
what they're called as a group. That's a weird name
(21:04):
for him to get. You know what, I would have
never agreed.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
I'm thinking plague like him, like a sickness like everyone said,
the boils and sores and they're falling apart and legs
or falling out and everything.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
A lot fucking locust More misinformation. All right, we're really
screwing it up today. What element has the chemical symbol?
Ag that was silver? What shape has five sides? The
pentagon or the Department of War, whatever you want to
call it. One animal has three hearts and nine brains.
We didn't get to this question. What animal has three
(21:33):
hearts and nine brains? What do you think that would
have been?
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Animal? Three hearts, nine brains? Octopus?
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Octopus has one central brain in the head, and it
has eight mini brains on all of its tentacles.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
It would be nice to have a mini brain, yeah,
I mean, like I have one, But it would be
nice if you had a brain and then another like

but a mini brain in addition to my brain would
be very nice. We're guys, we actually have of that.
I don't know if you know. Oh no, no, what

by the way, have a great voice.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
And I think I was telling him about how we
use Doug for a feature and I thought that we
could do something with Alva today.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Yeah, he's really ever used Alvi in a commercial. I
think I have right. Didn't you do something for AT
and T for me?
Speaker 3 (22:39):
At one point? You sent me some scripts to try out?
Hm hmmm, because I was asking about getting on the microphone.
You're like, I could send you some samples and stuff
to like practice around with. That was a little while ago.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Yeah, yeah, what do you think he would be really
great those golden pipes. If anyone needs me to do
some stuff, let me know.
Speaker 5 (22:57):
What.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
What are you laughing at? Oh? No, what are you
laughing at? Wow?
Speaker 6 (23:05):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Did what did you read? I should read the show
prep before we do the show so I don't bust
out laughing what I'm not supposed to a couple of things,
A couple of things. It says. This is what it says.
I had vitn This is not me, Becker. I had
Vietnamese food last night. Do you know what the curtsy
in Vietnam was called? You know what? Do you know
(23:27):
what it's called? Why are you asking me?
Speaker 6 (23:29):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
I'm scared my show prep notes. It's all things that
I find really funny at the moment I write it
all down, all right? What's Vietnamese currency? A dog? Not
a dog? Bark bark a dog? Dong g o n g?
Like how much does that cost two dogs? We should
(23:55):
start a whole new feature called like random thoughts. Pleased
and used random thoughts. So you gotta let me read
this because this is funny, Like he wrote, I like
what tomatoes can become like ketchup and stuff, but tomatoes
in their purest form or trash. I would. I would
(24:15):
one hundred percent agree with that. I used to like
the little cherry tomatoes when I was a kid. Now
I can't eat them. I can't now as an adult.
I'm like however, though, if it's with other stuff like
a tomato and a hamburger, okay, that I can deal with.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Like salsa I love, yeah, but I don't like a
If you put a slab of tomato on my burger,
I look you.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
In the eyes and see and a burger. If it's
mish with miss is that a word? With other stuff? Miss?
Mishsh max, mixed mixed. Here you go, Yeah, one of
those are working. What else did I write down? Random thoughts?
Went to Dorney Park, had the express Pass fast lane,
felt like a douche walking past everyone in the long lines. Man,
(24:57):
these people look at you. I mean I would be looking.
We're not right to the front, of course you did everybody. Yeah,
it is nice to have, but you do look like
an asshole. We should ask trivia questions. What do you think?
Speaker 6 (25:08):
Hoy hoy, when you're about to learn absolutely nothing? Go
Blazed and Confused podcast.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
It's my turn to go first, right, Sure, okay, ready
question number one. All right, and this is great too
because we don't even have to explain the concept. You
know what's up. I'm already on board. All right, here
we go. All right, let's start with pop culture. Which
artist created the monsters fan base and calls her fans
(25:36):
little monsters? Oh, we were just talking about her, Lady Gaga, right, yeah,
Lady go Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
That was easy.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Again, It's very Here's the only reason why I pulled
this question because an hour ago, behind the scenes, here
Becker goes, is it Lady Gaga or Lady Gaga? Because
I heard people say both the ways. I have never once.
I'm not saying they're right. I have never wonched. I
have never wanted in my life heard somebody called Lady
(26:03):
Gaga Lady Googuy as these people.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
You know.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
You've heard multiple people refer to her as Lady goog Guy. Yeah,
but I don't like spend a lot of time with
him for that reason. Hey, do you like that queen song?
It's called Radio goog God. You're stupid. Go to the
next one. I've already had enough. She's my favorite. Just
dance by Lady Googy. Question too, Let's go go lady
(26:31):
Lady Goog? Is it Lady Gaga or Lady good Let's
go all right? Sorry, that was just too good. M hm, alright.
Seventies movies? All right, you were around back then, right? Huh? Yeah?
Were you born in the seventies or eighties? Eighty four?
All right, just barely the eighties, seventies?
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Who knows?
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Do the math? I don't know. I don't know. I'm
fifty something. You can do math. I don't know how
math works? All right? What movie was awarded Best Picture
at the nineteen seventy two Academy Awards, with its sequel
receiving the same award two years later. I haven't an
(27:14):
I don't remember when that movie came out. Do you
have any idea? No? No, we should start hang on,
we should start a new rule too. You should not
be allowed to ask your lifeline if they know or not.
That doesn't make any fucking sense. Here we are at
episode twenty. We're constantly improving. Normally, you improved behind the scenes.
We improved on the show. We don't like. Yeah, yeah,
(27:34):
so stop doing that, all right, I'm sorry. Isn't The
Godfather by any chance?
Speaker 6 (27:40):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (27:42):
All right?
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Two for two? I can't do that movie, man, I
cannot do it too long. It's long, it's very slow.
The first one is like what three hours and eight
minutes or something like that. Well, and the Godfather too,
isn't that kind of Sopranos esque Italians mobs I killing
people over the whole thing, Like yeah, yeah, And that's
(28:03):
the problem with the Sopranos too. I wish that I
could get into the Sopranos because everybody says Sopranos is great.
These people all look the same and talk the same
and sound the same. Man, I can't follow it. I
just can't. If they if the Sopranos, if they wore
name tags, it'd be easier to follow.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
That's how I feel about that Game of Thrones show.
I don't know what the hell they're talking about half
the time, and their names are all weird. The last
time I tried to watch The Sopranos.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
I had chat Cheopt write me a guide of what
to watch for before I watched each episode, and then
I thought, you know what this is? This is crazy,
Like I it's I'm got so much effort to watch
a TV show, so much effort it is asking chat
ebt is a lot of effort. Well, and then sitting
there and reading through that before you watch an episode.
Come on, come on. I like TV that you look
you can fall asleep in front of. That's why I
(28:47):
watched the news so much. Scrubs is coming back. I'm
excited about that. Rub've never tried that. You should watch
that show. It's very funny, good thirty minutes, twenty six minutes,
has a chance, it has a chance. Yeah. Ready? Question three?
Question three? All right? Oh, like I stopped burping at
(29:12):
people when I was like nine years old. It's pnisoda
What tech company?
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Logos? By the way, for the category what tech company
used a blue running man logo in the nineties and
early two thousands? Read it one more time? What tech
company used a blue running man logo in the nineties
(29:40):
and early two thousands. Man, I grew up on this.
You know what it is. I know what it is.
You don't know what it is. Stop asking that. No,
I know what the answer is. Though. I'm just curious
if if Alvi remembers no, no, and you're gonna say it,
I'm gonna be oh.
Speaker 6 (29:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
I just remember like being young and like hanging out
with friends and like going into chat rooms and stuff
like that and talking to people. Okay, remember you had
to back in the day buy discs with hours for it. Yes,
good to what I hope I'm hoping. I'mking that I
got the right one, but I hope you are. I'm
gonna go with America Online or AOL. AOL very good
(30:19):
now explains to buy discs for what. So you could
like go to a grocery store and while you were
checking out where the magazines are and stuff like that,
they had things where you can get like one thousand
hours free of America Online and you would put in
your computer and you'd put in the serial number or whatever,
and that's how you got like free.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
Time time for what on AOL for America Online. Yeah,
and then when you run out of time, you would
get logged off. You had to pay for that in
a way. Yeah wait wait wait wait America Online. I
think of that as email and the instant messenger? Is
that what an email to? They had email to? What else? Messaging? AOL?
Speaker 3 (30:56):
AIM?
Speaker 1 (30:57):
But what else?
Speaker 5 (30:57):
Like what.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
America Line was like your internet? Pretty much? Was it
like an internet service? Didn't do everything in there? Bro
So so AOL was the Internet everything. So that's how
everybody accessed the Internet. Yeah, yeah, pretty much. And you
could go on all these chat rooms. They have all
kinds of chat rooms. That's how a lot of people
like met girls back in the day. It's fun interesting
or talk jump and then or talk shit and like
(31:22):
everyone would go, We're gonna go into the chat room
at this time and just fucking bomb people. You come
out and your feelings might have been destroyed. Better than that.
I'm much better of a person now, by the way,
are because of those Yeah? Yeah. I never was in
an AOL chat room, but I did have an aim account,
but it was like right on the tail end, like
I got it in the fourth grade when there was
a couple of people that had it, but it was
(31:42):
starting to not be cool. So wait, year was that
when I was in fourth grade? At two thousand and four,
two thousand and eight. Oh girl, all right, we gotta
move on. I'm gonna hurt my feelings talking about this.
Like I said, you were like bored in the seven
shut up question four twenty what all right? So this
(32:04):
is lyric challenge. For the final question, you had a role.
You got three out of three. Let's see if you
can get four out of four. Keep in mind, I
still have my lifeline. We both lie sudden fuck hang on. Hello.
We both lie silently still in the dead and night.
Although we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside.
(32:33):
Can you turn the music down and say it one
more time for me? The music is distracting. Go ahead,
we both lie silently ahead, We both lie side. Every
rose has its dark Yeah, yeah, yeah, you did it
(32:57):
a couple of weeks ago. Oh yeah, I think this
stuff makes me forget some time. Or maybe it was me.
Maybe I was the one that got them all.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Maybe, but still celebrating four questions right, And I didn't
need my lifeline.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
He's over there, just chilling. Good new role. That means
I get two lifelines on. Did you know them?
Speaker 5 (33:15):
No?
Speaker 3 (33:16):
No them?
Speaker 1 (33:17):
That's why I said, thank God, except the one. I
knew that one. Now it's my turn trivia. You didn't
know you needed or maybe you still don't.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
It's still blazed and confused podcast.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
All right, all right, hit me question number one?
Speaker 2 (33:37):
What animal can hold its breath for up to six days?
Six days, six days. It's not your mom, It is
not my mom, my poor mom. Uh Sandy, We love Sandy?

It's worse than a bee. Wunch something new every day. Yeah,
look it up. Really, look at a picture of a
scorpion really quick. You care that way you can see
(34:29):
what we're referencing.

my choices? Again? I think it's whale. What animal can
hold its breath for up to six days? Whale? Camel,
whale or scorpion. You think it's a whale. I think

(34:53):
thanks for the build up. Is a scorpion? Properly? Is
it a scorpion? It is a scorpion. Yeah, they can.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
They have extremely low metabolic rates, which they don't. They
don't really use a lot of oxygen, so they can
hold their breath really, really long.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
They have extremely low metabolic rage. Yeah, I know exactly
what that means, meaning that they use less oxygen so
they can hold their breath for fucking long, extremely low
metabolic rage. I have never, in the history of my
life said the word metabolic.
Speaker 3 (35:21):
No, no, that I'm good with. It's the breathing of
a scorpion. No one has ever discussed that. Yeah, it's
a small, stupid ask.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
Question and you don't even know what it is.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Dick.
Speaker 1 (35:31):

H everywhere you go, everybody's talking English though, or people
know like loose English pretty much everywhere, right? Or is
that a bold statement?
Speaker 3 (37:35):

about it. So even if it's like broken English, it's
you know, the Aussies they speak a kind of English,
the Brits all them. That's yeah, we speak whatever English
we call it.

Well, that and uh, all of a sudden. As of recently,
I keep getting these tiktoks and reels. So both on
two separate platforms, TikTok and Instagram reels. I'm getting these
videos about quitting marijuana. But the funny thing is that
on on TikTok, I guess you get like censored on
TikTok if you say marijuana, if you say weed, so
they call it quitting gardening. And there's this whole there's
(02:40):
two dude, There's like a billion videos that I've come
across now, and I'm not looking for these. What is
this the universe telling me that I need to cut
it back on the marriage Juana, on the gardening. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
See, you can't ask me that kind of question because
I think it's good for me, So I I don't
think I don't have to quit.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
But I tell you, though I'm not a quote, I
tell you I'm not a quitter. I'm seeing these videos
of these people that are like, I smoked every day,
all day for the past fifteen years of my life,
and now I'm a whole new person and I opened
up this whole new world and I can't believe. I
can't believe all the opportunities that I passed up so
I could sit around and be high and lazy, and
(03:17):
I'm thinking, oh fuck, that might be me. Really, I
think me. You think to me, you take every opportunity
and run with it. What are you talking about? You
don't pass up opportunity that could be doing more if
I wasn't stone Are you out of your mind? I
could be doing well, I could be conquering the world,
but instead I sit around and get high all day.
(03:38):
Is that what you want to do? You want to
conquer the world? Well, I mean, in so many words,
in so many words? What words? Then? What? What? How
do you want to conquer the world? What do you
want to do? Uh? Things? I don't know. I don't
know what. I don't know what I want to do.
I just know that I could be doing more. Oh, okay,
you do a lot of things. Yeah, yeah, you worked
until one point thirty in the morning last night. Now
(03:59):
we're doing a podcast at one that was twelve hours ago,
and more work? Are you doing more work today after this? Hopefully? Please?
Hopefully that's how eager he is to conquer the world.
I just worked seventy hours, but hopefully I can work
more after the show. No, I give it up to you, man,
(04:21):
I'm very envious. How often do you work? How many hours?
I'm an we're from. I can't even talk. How many
hours a week do you work?
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Anywhere from forty five to sixty?
Speaker 1 (04:31):
What do you do? I'm a truck driver, sick.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
What a cool guest to have on because you don't
really get to talk to a lot of truck drivers
and what their life is like on the road.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
It must be chaos, because it's chaos. For the last thing,
I always said, I the next job that I have
when I get a real job after I'm done. It's
this whole radio thing. When I get a real job,
I want to be a driver because you sit and
you listen to your music and you vibe out all day. Right.
Pretty accurate for the most part.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Ain't nobody telling me what I can and I cannot
listen to listen to whatever music I want. I can
listen to you guys. I can do all that well,
which is very nice. By the way, Yes, thank you.
I'm on the show. To show is a good time.
Like being on the show right now is like it's
wild because the podcast I'm listening podcasts I'm listening to,
I'm on it right now.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
It's pretty cool. Sick. Wow. Uh No, I've always thought
about being a truck drover. However, I don't think that
I could do. You drive like a big, big rig,
like a big thing. Yeah, I don't think I could do.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Forty eight feet trailer behind me. Now I do flatbed.
It's not dry and it's not fifty three feet, but
I still got to get that thing in some pretty
ridiculous spots.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Yeah. How many tries did it take to get your
your is it a CDL? How many tries one time?
One time? Dude? It's pretty is it like known for
people to like have multiple tries for that kind of happens? Yeah?
What's the success rate on like a first try? Do
you know? Couldn't tell you accurately?
Speaker 2 (05:51):
We can ask Andy about that. How many people pass
their CDL license on the first try?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Jesus?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Yeah? And he burps a lot? Just sone? No, yeah,
not Ai. Andy doesn't burp.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
I do.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
I tell you? Why burp? Because I'm drinking a lot
of soda. Recently I went vaping and I picked up
another habit soda. Why what kind of soda? Coke? Any
soda but coke. At least it's coke instead of PEPSI
don't I don't mind PEPSI though, I drink pepsi too.
Wild cherry pepsi, I think is better than cherry coke. Yesterday,
I was down at Celtic Fest and I wanted a
soda really bad. I was like, I want to die
(06:23):
of coke, right, And I go to this vendor and
they were like, oh, we only have coke zero. Would
you like that? And I said absolutely the frick no.
She was like, really, to go, that is very different.
Do you even remotely close? Like it doesn't even taste right,
It's it's weird. Zero is weird. Very Most people will
say diet coke taste weird too, But yeah, it's one
of my Which one was it pepsi or was it
(06:43):
coke that had the recently the Oreo flavored cola? I
think it was horrible. I think it was coke. I
think it was coke, and I bought it because I thought,
this is interesting, let me try it. It was awful.
It was so disgusting.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
I don't venture into like flavored things like that. You know,
if I were a coffee drinker, I don't think i'd
be into these like flavored coffees and stuff.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Here's a question, soda machines, would you rather have like
the old school, there's seven and you pick the one
that you want. Or would you rather have the big
red Coca Cola machine where it's like the touchscreen and
you go make your own?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
See I'm such a purist, dude. I don't like like
jazz episodas, so I would I don't know. I would
love a Fountain diet coke machine in my apartment though.
That would be amazing, Like a diet.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
People do that. Yeah, I know you can get that.
It's really not that hard and nor is it that
expensive and nor well have my Christmas list this year,
so well, I'm not buying it for you. Well, no,
you might. What a gift that would be the only shit,
here's your own at home? Boy this year?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
You're getting cold bitch? Anyway, how many tries a right?
What's the success rate on first attempts on it?
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Andy, what's up man? How are you a jeel? I'm
doing great? Thanks for asking. What's the success rate of
somebody getting their CDL license on the first try?
Speaker 3 (07:59):
So right now?
Speaker 5 (08:00):
The success rate for getting a CDL on the first
try is generally pretty decent, around eighty five to ninety
percent of folks pass the written knowledge part on their
first attempt. The driving skills is a bit tougher, with
about a seventy percent first time pass rate, meaning roughly
thirty percent met a second go.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
It's overall not too shabby. That's pretty good at I'll
be good for you. You're part of that seventy percent.
How many attempts do you think it would take you
to pass your CDL truck? Maybe that's yeah, a few, yeah, yeah,
Like I don't know if I would do. I want
to be a driver, but I don't think that I
want to drive the big drugs. That's what's part of
what's all part of that like test? What kind of
(08:35):
things do you have to do? So the actual like
road test itself. You literally, and as crazy as is
going to sound, your first test is literally the back
of the truck straight back.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
You start in one spot and any other thing. Make
sure the trailer trucker one like one line okay, not
crooked and not kicked off the right or left straight back.
Then you have another one that's called the offset, and
that's where you literally start off on so your left side,
they'll have cone set up towards the right. You back
the trailer up in between the cones on the right side.
By the time you're done, you need to be straight
(09:07):
in that parking zone and they'll have it where you
were supposed to stop the truck. If you go past
it or out of it, you're gonna get hit for that.
You know.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
There's a CDL school like up the street from where
we're recording.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Yeah, they do it in the parking lot of this
old business that's shut down because of the economy being shitty.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Thank you, that's where they do it. Yeah, meet the
press episode. We've been teasing it man, Yeah, yeah, I
know our listening audience is just dying for us to
talk about politics. Yeah. We might be the only podcast
in all of America is not talking about politics. Right.
We have been skimping around and around there twenty episodes.
By the way, well is episode number twenty, and we're
(09:43):
gonna keep going around it, skirting around it just to
avoid any episode twenty. So we just needed four more
and there it's four to twenty. Yeah, what four hundred
more for? Yeah? Yeah, four hundred All right, let's press
the start. Okay on that note, great, where is the
star button? Oh? Here it is.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
Welcome to the Blazed and Confused podcast with Becker and Joel,
The trivia podcast where the questions are high and.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
So are they.
Speaker 6 (10:13):
Hat's time to pluck your curiosity and light up some knowledge.
Though Blazed and Confused podcast starts.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Now.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
You know, I think about this every week, and now
I'm finally gonna say it. Maybe I was high when
I wrote that, but the open says where the questions
are high and so are there?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Yeah, I know I think about that all the time
and how it doesn't make sense. It doesn't make any
but it also does make sense because of the kind
of podcast.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Doesn't make sense. I don't think it does. You think
it makes sense the stakes are high and so are they?
Speaker 3 (10:48):
That would probably because I haven't thought about it myself.
I've listened like the questions or I know where they're
going with this, but maybe switched the weird huh?
Speaker 1 (11:00):
All right, we should fix for their creative genius behind that.
I guess that was fucking ai Andy. You can blain
man kicking, motherfucking episode twenty though. We made it through
twenty episode twenty with that incorrect interest. So we've had
twenty episodes of a weird intro that doesn't make any
sense cool with me. I'm backing, by the way. That's
my friend Joel. Hello. Today we're joined by Alvi, who
(11:20):
is a longtime friend of mine. You've worked in all
kinds of different businesses and careers, but being a truck
driver's pretty interested. What would you say is the most colorful.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Or hmm, the strongest expletive you've yelled at somebody because
of their poor driving while you've been on the road
as a truck driver.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
We can bleep it out, go ahead, give it to
it's somebody. Just cut you off, Alvi, what are you
gonna say to him? Cock suck mother? Oh, I'm not
gonna do it. I'm gonna be good. I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
It's hard to do it on the fly because I'm
so emotional at that moment. It comes off. And if
you were on the phone with me and mother drivers,
we'll come up with some creative stuff. We've had people
death of three generations of family, just all that. Like
I had my one dude was like, I hope that
when you go home that you find your grandmother laying
(12:11):
in the bathroom like broken neck on side of shower.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Just cut me off. Okay, you said that or not me.
I'm not that wild he said that to you. No,
we were so at work.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
There's about six of us on our own little conference call,
and we're all talking to each other all day, and
we jump on off the phone all day. So everyone's
going through stuff together. And you got to spread up
and down the East coast. You gotta do an NYC.
You got me in the Jersey Shore, you got another
person in New York, up state. We're all over the place, Jersey, PA, Delaware, Maryland, everywhere,
So everyone's going through in different places, so there could
(12:44):
be random like we could be talking right now. I'm like, yeah, man,
I had a really good day, you stupid son of
a bitch. I swear to God, if I see you
in the streets somewhere, I'm gonna drag in a dark
oully and stab it to your peek yourself and walk away.
Speaker 6 (12:55):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Wow. And then after that you're like, I shouldn't have
said that. You know, I feel pretty calm with them,
good with it. See now as I've gotten older, I
am like, oh, I shouldn't say those kind of things.
And I and I kind of try to think of
like more like substitution.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Yeah, like friendlier things like I hope you have trouble
sleeping for a week, you dick, You know that kind
of thing, just to chase there.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
It's real good someone watching, you know what I mean.
Just I'm getting older.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
I tried to substitute words for a while, Like in
the beginnings of my driving, I was like, I'm not
going to be that angry truck driver. I wanted to
be the cool dude's driving. Oh yeah, you coming off,
no big deal, it's not no. That lasted about six
months and I was like a raging nut.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Wow, I've always wanted to ask a truck driver. It
appears as though the trucks like don't drive nearly fast enough.
But that's one thing that I think would bother me
if I was a truck driver. I furiated by it
every day that it's just too fucking slow, right.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Is that a rule that you guys have to follow,
Like they just don't get out of their way that
fast When you're hauling thirty to forty pounds. It ain't
gonna move that fast and ain't gonna stop that fast either.
But people like to play games with that too, so
it's oh, that's also I've never thought about that. It
doesn't stop all that, ye yet people like the breakcheck.
(14:10):
Just Friday, I was getting on three nine to the
switch over to seventy eight, some dude in the Wrangler
rips passed me.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
I think I know who it was. Oh no, what
color was the Wrangler? It was a darker color. Oh no,
Like what time was that at? I don't know. I
don't know where I've never heard of that. Where's three nine?
You mask? Where's this magic three nine's? Big three nine? Aware?
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Three nine to seventy eight, like right before you hit
Cedar Crest and all that. Oh no, I don't know.
Please know there's a lot.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Of Wranglers out there anyway. Continue.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
So this this individual rent I'm in my own personal
vehicle went past me and a company I won't say,
but it was a rig and he jumped in front,
and I'm like driving behind. All of a sudden, I
see the break lights on the rig and the whole
trailer almost stood up, and it did again and stood
up again. Like he's locking the brakes up pretty good.
I could smell him, and I'm like, is he freaked out?
(15:09):
Because you know that last bend before you merge on
the seventy eight. If you're not familiar with it, it
could sneak up on you. And in a rig if
you're top heavy, you could tip it.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Yeah, but I uh went around. I'm like, maybe the
guy's freaking out. You never know.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
And there was a wrangler basically about seven inches in
front of this truck and I'm like, you freaking say
this right now.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
And he was break checking the rig. Yeah, why'd you
do that? Joel? I don't. I don't. I don't break check.
I've never dropped the later. I didn't break anything.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Calm down, that's all right, I think, Oh, look at
that backup later. Hey, we have questions for Abby. We
should get into that. The wrapid round, Yes, brought yet
to you by it looks.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Like, uh, what is that? What deoderant do you have
over there? A lot of old spiders. It must be
brought to you by an old spice this week? Why
do you have three? Actually you have three more upstairs
because they were on so oh you called it. You
called for what like six? I have no idea I
bought honestly. So here's the real reason why I have
six of them is because I accidentally I buy my
dealdor it on Amazon. I don't know why, but I do.
(16:13):
And I accidentally clicked order twice on it, so two
of them showed up. Okay, but like you know, you're
gonna use it, so you wanna go to waste? Yeah, Jesus,
the soda makes you burn.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
I know.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
But you're also an adult, all right, I know, But
what are you supposed to do? Every adult knows what
they're supposed to do?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
How do you hold that in? You're not to hold
a burpen, or at least hide it and go on.
You know what happened? Do you hold a burpen? It's gas.
It comes out to the other fucking end. You choose
what you want?
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Yeah, you do that as well. Yes, we're screwed either way. Hey,
better out than angel.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Right, Yeah, the game begins into three? All right, what's
the first three words of the US Constitution? We the
people got? What is ninety minus thirty four? Jeez? Really, dude,
wrapping round twenty something something? What does the acronym CFO
(17:08):
stand for? Shut the past? How many pairs of chromosomes
does a human usually have in each cell? Twenty four?
What's the name of the fictitious scientist created by Mary
Shelley Pass.

think they changed the name of that place. It's no
longer the Pentagon. It's the Be careful, isn't it like

Speaker 1 (18:02):
The House of War? What it's called now? No? No,

Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, the Department It used to be the
Department of Justice, and now it's like the Department of War. Yeah,
that sounds good. Pentagon, Yeah, that's a five side. They
don't call it.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
No, they changed it, right, No, they still call it
the Panage. I thought they changed it. No, I'm sorry, anyway,
misinformation being spread right here?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Really really anyway, really you missed a couple of those.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
You got the first one, though, What are the first
three words of the US Constitution?
Speaker 1 (18:31):
We the people? What is it?
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Ninety minus thirty four? That was fifty six? You almost
got that. You said twenty three. No, he said twenty something.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
What does the acronym CFO stand for chief financial officer?
Speaker 1 (18:44):
I wouldn't know that.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
How many pairs of chromosomes does a human usually have
in each cell? I think I put that down. That's wrong. Actually,
I think it's twenty three. I put the answer is
twenty four. We gave that to you.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
I think it's twenty three though, like twenty three, and
me right, sure, I think it's twenty three. Yeah, it
wouldn't have never known about the chromosome. Now, how many
are you supposed to have? Twenty three? But I put
twenty four, So we're gonna have to look that one.
Is that right? Let's look it up now, Okay, good, nice,
real good, real good? Should I have? How many chromosomes
do I have? Or should you have? Should you have?
(19:18):
How many chromosomes should you have?
Speaker 5 (19:23):
Well, if we're talking about humans in a general biological sense,
typically you've got forty six chromosomes, twenty three pairs.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Twenty three pairs? All right? Cool? Nice? Thanks Andy? Yeah, wait,
so you you guessed twenty four and we said correct,
but it's actually twenty three. It's twenty three. Yeah, yeah,
twenty three. And there's any typo there? Yeah, you know
they went bankrupt now I know, And isn't it weird?
It is like, I'm not you know, I'm not like
a conspiracy theorist or anything, but it is a little
stranger to a company like that who has everybody's freaking DNA?
(19:55):
Now just is the vanishes? Yeah? Yeah, what happens all
the DNA? I think they sold it, right, and they
sell it to some other company like that?
Speaker 4 (20:02):
How do you tell your DNA? That's scary, that's very unsettling.
He's spreading this information. I can't really, this is bad, man.
I keep guessing at the news. A lot of people
do that. I'm not one of them. Tell you all right, that.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Could be a whole new podcast, a lot different than
this one. Pagon yeah ship anyway, moving on, what's the
name of the fictitious scientists created by Mary Shelley?
Speaker 2 (20:29):
That was Victor Frankenstein. I had no idea that Frankenstein
had a first name, Victor?
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Who knew that.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Plague is a collective group of locusts? Remember those loud aspects?
Do you have these these giant windows?
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Do you know what does that mean? That when you
hear about like the Great plague, you know it happened
way back when. Was that like brought on by a
bunch of locusts? Is that how that works? I don't
think so. You know, plague the sickness is it is
the sickness carried by No, I don't know. That's just
what they're called as a group. That's a weird name
(21:04):
for him to get. You know what, I would have
never agreed.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
I'm thinking plague like him, like a sickness like everyone said,
the boils and sores and they're falling apart and legs
or falling out and everything.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
A lot fucking locust More misinformation. All right, we're really
screwing it up today. What element has the chemical symbol?
Ag that was silver? What shape has five sides? The
pentagon or the Department of War, whatever you want to
call it. One animal has three hearts and nine brains.
We didn't get to this question. What animal has three
(21:33):
hearts and nine brains? What do you think that would
have been?
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Animal? Three hearts, nine brains? Octopus?
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Octopus has one central brain in the head, and it
has eight mini brains on all of its tentacles.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
It would be nice to have a mini brain, yeah,
I mean, like I have one, But it would be
nice if you had a brain and then another like
you know what I mean, Like I already have a brain,
but a mini brain in addition to my brain would
be very nice. We're guys, we actually have of that.
I don't know if you know. Oh no, no, what
no our other brain? Stop it? Brain in your balls?
(22:07):
In your balls? Geez see, I don't get it. Question
ten that we never got to what is a confusedific
name for the voice box? He's just moving right on, yeah,
mm hmm, trying to save shit, trying to I wanted
to say Laryx, but it's not that Laryx. You got it? Yeah? Yeah, which, you,
by the way, have a great voice.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
And I think I was telling him about how we
use Doug for a feature and I thought that we
could do something with Alva today.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Yeah, he's really ever used Alvi in a commercial. I
think I have right. Didn't you do something for AT
and T for me?
Speaker 3 (22:39):
At one point? You sent me some scripts to try out?
Hm hmmm, because I was asking about getting on the microphone.
You're like, I could send you some samples and stuff
to like practice around with. That was a little while ago.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Yeah, yeah, what do you think he would be really
great those golden pipes. If anyone needs me to do
some stuff, let me know.
Speaker 5 (22:57):
What.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
What are you laughing at? Oh? No, what are you
laughing at? Wow?
Speaker 6 (23:05):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Did what did you read? I should read the show
prep before we do the show so I don't bust
out laughing what I'm not supposed to a couple of things,
A couple of things. It says. This is what it says.
I had vitn This is not me, Becker. I had
Vietnamese food last night. Do you know what the curtsy
in Vietnam was called? You know what? Do you know
(23:27):
what it's called? Why are you asking me?
Speaker 6 (23:29):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
I'm scared my show prep notes. It's all things that
I find really funny at the moment I write it
all down, all right? What's Vietnamese currency? A dog? Not
a dog? Bark bark a dog? Dong g o n g?
Like how much does that cost two dogs? We should
(23:55):
start a whole new feature called like random thoughts. Pleased
and used random thoughts. So you gotta let me read
this because this is funny, Like he wrote, I like
what tomatoes can become like ketchup and stuff, but tomatoes
in their purest form or trash. I would. I would
(24:15):
one hundred percent agree with that. I used to like
the little cherry tomatoes when I was a kid. Now
I can't eat them. I can't now as an adult.
I'm like however, though, if it's with other stuff like
a tomato and a hamburger, okay, that I can deal with.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Like salsa I love, yeah, but I don't like a

(24:57):
these people look at you. I mean I would be looking.
We're not right to the front, of course you did everybody. Yeah,

an asshole. We should ask trivia questions. What do you think?
Speaker 6 (25:08):
Hoy hoy, when you're about to learn absolutely nothing? Go
Blazed and Confused podcast.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
It's my turn to go first, right, Sure, okay, ready
question number one. All right, and this is great too
because we don't even have to explain the concept. You
know what's up. I'm already on board. All right, here
we go. All right, let's start with pop culture. Which
artist created the monsters fan base and calls her fans
(25:36):
little monsters? Oh, we were just talking about her, Lady Gaga, right, yeah,
Lady go Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
That was easy.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Again, It's very Here's the only reason why I pulled
this question because an hour ago, behind the scenes, here
Becker goes, is it Lady Gaga or Lady Gaga? Because
I heard people say both the ways. I have never once.
I'm not saying they're right. I have never wonched. I
have never wanted in my life heard somebody called Lady
(26:03):
Gaga Lady Googuy as these people.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
You know.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
You've heard multiple people refer to her as Lady goog Guy. Yeah,
but I don't like spend a lot of time with
him for that reason. Hey, do you like that queen song?
It's called Radio goog God. You're stupid. Go to the
next one. I've already had enough. She's my favorite. Just
dance by Lady Googy. Question too, Let's go go lady
(26:31):
Lady Goog? Is it Lady Gaga or Lady good Let's
go all right? Sorry, that was just too good. M hm, alright.
Seventies movies? All right, you were around back then, right? Huh? Yeah?
Were you born in the seventies or eighties? Eighty four?
All right, just barely the eighties, seventies?
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Who knows?
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Do the math? I don't know. I don't know. I'm
fifty something. You can do math. I don't know how
math works? All right? What movie was awarded Best Picture
at the nineteen seventy two Academy Awards, with its sequel
receiving the same award two years later. I haven't an
(27:14):
I don't remember when that movie came out. Do you
have any idea? No? No, we should start hang on,
we should start a new rule too. You should not
be allowed to ask your lifeline if they know or not.
That doesn't make any fucking sense. Here we are at
episode twenty. We're constantly improving. Normally, you improved behind the scenes.
We improved on the show. We don't like. Yeah, yeah,
(27:34):
so stop doing that, all right, I'm sorry. Isn't The
Godfather by any chance?
Speaker 6 (27:40):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (27:42):
All right?
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Two for two? I can't do that movie, man, I
cannot do it too long. It's long, it's very slow.
The first one is like what three hours and eight
minutes or something like that. Well, and the Godfather too,
isn't that kind of Sopranos esque Italians mobs I killing
people over the whole thing, Like yeah, yeah, And that's
(28:03):
the problem with the Sopranos too. I wish that I
could get into the Sopranos because everybody says Sopranos is great.
These people all look the same and talk the same
and sound the same. Man, I can't follow it. I
just can't. If they if the Sopranos, if they wore
name tags, it'd be easier to follow.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
That's how I feel about that Game of Thrones show.
I don't know what the hell they're talking about half
the time, and their names are all weird. The last
time I tried to watch The Sopranos.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
I had chat Cheopt write me a guide of what
to watch for before I watched each episode, and then
I thought, you know what this is? This is crazy,
Like I it's I'm got so much effort to watch
a TV show, so much effort it is asking chat
ebt is a lot of effort. Well, and then sitting
there and reading through that before you watch an episode.
Come on, come on. I like TV that you look
you can fall asleep in front of. That's why I
(28:47):
watched the news so much. Scrubs is coming back. I'm
excited about that. Rub've never tried that. You should watch
that show. It's very funny, good thirty minutes, twenty six minutes,
has a chance, it has a chance. Yeah. Ready? Question three?

I'm gonna be oh.
Speaker 6 (29:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
I just remember like being young and like hanging out
with friends and like going into chat rooms and stuff
like that and talking to people. Okay, remember you had
to back in the day buy discs with hours for it. Yes,
good to what I hope I'm hoping. I'mking that I
got the right one, but I hope you are. I'm
gonna go with America Online or AOL. AOL very good
(30:19):
now explains to buy discs for what. So you could
like go to a grocery store and while you were
checking out where the magazines are and stuff like that,
they had things where you can get like one thousand
hours free of America Online and you would put in
your computer and you'd put in the serial number or whatever,
and that's how you got like free.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
Time time for what on AOL for America Online. Yeah,
and then when you run out of time, you would
get logged off. You had to pay for that in
a way. Yeah wait wait wait wait America Online. I
think of that as email and the instant messenger? Is
that what an email to? They had email to? What else? Messaging? AOL?
Speaker 3 (30:56):
AIM?
Speaker 1 (30:57):
But what else?
Speaker 5 (30:57):
Like what.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
America Line was like your internet? Pretty much? Was it
like an internet service? Didn't do everything in there? Bro
So so AOL was the Internet everything. So that's how
everybody accessed the Internet. Yeah, yeah, pretty much. And you
could go on all these chat rooms. They have all
kinds of chat rooms. That's how a lot of people
like met girls back in the day. It's fun interesting
or talk jump and then or talk shit and like
(31:22):
everyone would go, We're gonna go into the chat room
at this time and just fucking bomb people. You come
out and your feelings might have been destroyed. Better than that.
I'm much better of a person now, by the way,
are because of those Yeah? Yeah. I never was in
an AOL chat room, but I did have an aim account,
but it was like right on the tail end, like
I got it in the fourth grade when there was
a couple of people that had it, but it was
(31:42):
starting to not be cool. So wait, year was that
when I was in fourth grade? At two thousand and four,
two thousand and eight. Oh girl, all right, we gotta
move on. I'm gonna hurt my feelings talking about this.
Like I said, you were like bored in the seven
shut up question four twenty what all right? So this
(32:04):
is lyric challenge. For the final question, you had a role.
You got three out of three. Let's see if you
can get four out of four. Keep in mind, I
still have my lifeline. We both lie sudden fuck hang on. Hello.
We both lie silently still in the dead and night.
Although we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside.
(32:33):
Can you turn the music down and say it one
more time for me? The music is distracting. Go ahead,
we both lie silently ahead, We both lie side. Every
rose has its dark Yeah, yeah, yeah, you did it
(32:57):
a couple of weeks ago. Oh yeah, I think this
stuff makes me forget some time. Or maybe it was me.
Maybe I was the one that got them all.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Maybe, but still celebrating four questions right, And I didn't
need my lifeline.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
He's over there, just chilling. Good new role. That means
I get two lifelines on. Did you know them?
Speaker 5 (33:15):
No?
Speaker 3 (33:16):
No them?
Speaker 1 (33:17):
That's why I said, thank God, except the one. I
knew that one. Now it's my turn trivia. You didn't
know you needed or maybe you still don't.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
It's still blazed and confused podcast.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
All right, all right, hit me question number one?
Speaker 2 (33:37):
What animal can hold its breath for up to six days?

thanks for the build up. Is a scorpion? Properly? Is
it a scorpion? It is a scorpion. Yeah, they can.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
They have extremely low metabolic rates, which they don't. They
don't really use a lot of oxygen, so they can
hold their breath really, really long.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
They have extremely low metabolic rage. Yeah, I know exactly
what that means, meaning that they use less oxygen so
they can hold their breath for fucking long, extremely low
metabolic rage. I have never, in the history of my
life said the word metabolic.
Speaker 3 (35:21):
No, no, that I'm good with. It's the breathing of
a scorpion. No one has ever discussed that. Yeah, it's
a small, stupid ask.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
Question and you don't even know what it is.

we call it.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
