Hi, Lydia.
How are you?
You look fabulous.
Oh, thanks Carl.
That's so sweet.
You seem chipper today for you
I am.
I started off with a big healthybreakfast.
I had some interesting feedback on one ofmy social media accounts last night and I

(00:48):
think I may have met somebody.
So I've got a little bounce in my steptoday.
bit.
It's the internet and for all you peoplewho are watching the Barbie movie right
now, if one of you could pause it for halfa second so we could finish our podcast,
we'd appreciate it.
My god, how many times do you need to seethat speech?

(01:10):
America forever.
Lovers.
Uh, he's- we got- I think we got him backthough.
Uh, Carl, you with us?
No?
Yeah, there we go.
Yeah.
Yes we are.
We- we got you now, Carl.
Wha- repeat what you just said.
Well, I've got a little bounce in my stepbecause I had some interesting kind of

(01:32):
interaction on my social medias last nightand I think I may have found a life
partner.
So I'm kind of excited about that.
And I'm also...
of.
Well, I'm, it's a, it's a, she's the wholepackage.
Cause she, uh, I gotta say veryattractive.

(01:53):
She knows almost everything about cryptoand, um, and she's very single and very,
uh, up for some, you know, meeting newfriends and I don't, I, you know, I don't
want to jinx it, but it's, but I thinkthis one may have legs.
Well, I would recommend that he runs abackground check.

(02:15):
What do you think, Lydia?
Oh, absolutely.
At least look at our other socials just tokind of get an idea.
Just to make sure that consistency is keyeven in online dating.
She might be catfishing you, Carl.
She might be catfishing you.
I would totally do that.
Is that something fun?
Oh.

(02:35):
when you pretend to be somebody else.
I played a hot sexy mama named Bertha forabout seven years.
It stemmed from some role playing that Iwas doing at the time.
And I just brought it right out onto theintranet.
I had a lot of fun.
I...
you kind of put a wet blanket on myenthusiasm, but I'll be cautious.

(02:59):
Well, chances are slim that you'll evermeet this person, you know, it's because
it never happens, right?
Lydia, tell him.
Shee-ha!
everyone deserves love and Jimmy, evenJimmy.
And you know, I love love, but we reallyshould get to our first emailed question
because there are, yeah, we're gonna tablethat.

(03:22):
All right, let's see.
Hello, JNC, Sammy here.
All right.
I drive a 2018 Jeep Wrangler.
Cool.
I admit I have a problem.
and I need help.
Wow.
I reached into the backseat to try andgrab my backpack but accidentally stuck my

(03:46):
hand in an old fast food bag.
Wow.
I haven't ever cleaned out my car before.
But that three month old bean burritostench is not coming off of my fingers.
So I'm inspired to try.
Wow.
That inspired him to try and clean it outand keep it that way.
Any tips for me?
Well, Sammy.

(04:07):
do we know if sammy is a- this soundslike- this sounds like a- a 21 year old
girl.
sammy.
yeah, that's cute.
I Would let nature run its course naturecan break down Almost anything and what
the way I clean my car out is I let naturedo it.

(04:27):
So
There's no such thing as car composting.
Jimmy, Carl.
car.
The maggots come first, and those arereally the most important element to all
this.
They will hatch into flies, and that's atough period.
You just keep the windows down.
But over time, that stuff will break downinto some nice topsoil, and I've got a

(04:53):
little garden back there, you know, so.
what you put on my?
That's what you put on my garden.
All right, I take it back.
I take it back.
You know your stuff.
My car's a top soil machine.
Uh, Carl, you had something to tune in?
T-T-Yeah.
in because this is a little bit in mywheelhouse, this stench removal.

(05:15):
I'm not going to go into a lot ofbackstory, but I was covered in mayonnaise
and left in the high desert for about sixhours.
I came back and through some trial anderror came up with a little cure.
If you take oatmeal, you make a poulticeout of oatmeal, sweet potato baby food,

(05:36):
and a little bit of gooby gone.
You make that into a little...
You put that on you, blow dry it till it'scompletely crusted and then shower it off.
You will smell as fresh as the day youwere born.
It sounds crazy, but I've seen him come inwith that coated on him and his skin looks

(05:58):
amazing after it's peeled off.
Yep.
I think we should make a YouTube tutorialon this because to be honest, we've been
getting a lot of people writing in to askabout this.
There's no scent that this won't remove.
And I've tried a lot of them.
And I haven't seen a blackhead on yourback since you've been doing it.

(06:18):
no.
No, I do remember how covered I wasbefore.
I mean...
I like pulling blackheads out of people.
Liddy, I'd like to duct tape you to theground and get to work on you sometime.
Yeah.
don't reveal my blackhead situation.
Come on.
Yeah, but, oh geez, all right.

(06:39):
life.
God's plan, you know, we have blackheadsthere for a reason.
Alright, well what do we got next thereLydia?
I think we, oh, ooh, we're lighting up.
We got a caller, we got a caller in.
Let's see, who is this caller?
Do we have him on the line?
What's your name, caller?

(07:02):
Oh, Norm?
Holt, all right.
Yeah, what's your issue, Norm?
How can we help you?
Well, see, I've got a 2013 SubaruForester.
And this only happens when it's...
Oh, I know, I know.
But the ladies love them.
But this only happens when it's really,really cold out.

(07:26):
And anyway, when I use my blinkers, I geta little tingle down below, you know, if
you know what I mean.
And what I'm wondering is, is there a wayto make that happen all year round?
Yeah, this is a great question.
This is, well, this is one of the thingsthat.
your car sometime?
yes.

(07:46):
This was what really set Subaru apart andgot some of the people excited about their
vehicles.
And it's been an industry secret that haspaid off for them for decades.
So I would say just buckle up, enjoy theride and take as many turns as you want,
if you know what I'm saying.
And if you want to dial it up a little bitmore, just get a bigger fuse and shove it

(08:12):
into the...
I'd get like a 10 or a 20 and shove itright into slot 17 and get ready.
Yeah.
You won't be going to work the next day,but you will be, uh, in some kind of
special place.
I'll tell you that.
Yeah.
That's more than a 10 gold.

(08:33):
turns out the prostate is reallyimportant.
And the Japanese learned that millenniaago.
Thank you very much.

We play both sides of the ball.
We do have a recorded question we gottaget to, guys.

All right.
Hit play whenever you're ready there,Lydia.
Keeping it retro.
All right, let me just get, oh, hold on,the battery fell out there.

Put a piece of gum in there and that'llhold the battery in.
She's uh, Lydia's got...

(10:46):
So, you know, a little glitter in youroil.
Hey, yeah.

How do you think the glitter got in there?
Lydia, Carl, anything?
It sounds like, you know, maybe...
Did you go to a bachelorette partyrecently?
You just want to ride the wave, not, uh,not ask it how it got there.

(11:09):
order of events at a bachelor party leadsto somebody unscrewing the oil cap and
dumping glitter in it?
Like, how does that happen?
Go.
You pretend not to know.
yeah, I don't- I don't wanna tattle onanyone in their hobbies, but...

(11:31):
Mmm...
I'm the bachelor party for my fourthmarriage.
We did not have any glitter at all, didwe?
Oh, no, we did, we did.
We...
yes, we did.
At the hotel.
Oh my god.
It was crazy.
It was it was just the three of us at mybachelor party, but...

(12:00):
I woke up covered in honey and glitter.
I don't know who did what to me, but thatwas a great night.
The marriage didn't last long.
I'll tell you who did what to you.
Everyone and everything.
That is true.
No, you were a good sport though.
You were a really good sport.

(12:20):
marriage didn't last long.
Josephine passed away just three daysafter we had the ceremony.
Yeah, decapitated.
But she, you know, she, fortunately shehad told me that she wanted to reenact
that final scene from Seven if she everdid die and so, huge movie buff.

(12:43):
Finding a box to...
You know, that size wasn't easy.
They don't, but, but I did do it.
And, and by the way, thanks for playingthe Brad Pitt part, Carl.
I appreciated that.
kind of, I felt a little out of waterthere, but I think I, uh, at least got the
cadence of his, uh, his voice right.
What's in the box?
What's in the box?

(13:04):
you did.
Mm hmm.
Was Brad Pitt just here?
All right.
What's a, let's move it right.
Move it right on Lydia.
We're cruising.
I think that's it.
I think we crushed it.
All right, well.
Another W in the column.

(13:25):
And as you all know, we like to go to Carlat the end of every episode.
And Carl, I feel a little bad that thishas become a tradition.
I don't want to put you on the spot in anyway or make you have to sum up anything.
It's really more of just like a check-infor you.

(13:45):
Yeah.
He does.
are, I like to give little pearls ofwisdom just from my ears on this, walking
on this crusty earth.
And here's one that, you know, it's just ahypothetical, just a little out of some
kind of pulling out of the air.
But if somebody, let's say somebody has abirthmark that looks exactly like Snow

(14:05):
White on their, on their left bottomcheek.
That is not reason enough to pants them.
for eight years.
Oh god, the Hingler Brothers just wouldnot let go of you.
They, they are relentless and look at themnow.
It's an insult to injury, but still I'msaying, this wasn't about me.

(14:28):
I mean, I, maybe it was a little bit, butI'm saying let's, let's have some
consideration for what others are, aredealt in their, in their lives.
Yeah.
I know it's, it's uncanny.
Yeah.
And.
And you can tell the difference betweenSneezy and, who's the other dwarf, the one

(14:53):
that I...
Sleepy.
They're both...
they look...
they...
yeah, I mean they're really finely drawn.
It feels like, how did that happen?
Is her mouth your anus?
That part I couldn't...
Okay.
I have to, I have to assist.
I have to do a pull apart to make hertalk.
