Speaker 1 (00:04):
And what if I lost both my hands tomorrow you.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Could be a seat model star. I was sixteen at
the time or fifteen, and then hook it up with
a witch and that was that. Cats can smile apparently,
whoa weird, But it doesn't always mean that they're happy.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Lucy receives a call from what I can only assume
is the future winner of every acting award ever.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Yeah, Jennyman is a star. Her look looks weren't a
part of this issue.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
He's like, I had to sell my last top hat
for gramas.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Maybe this is not appropriate either, but we'll see.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
What's up. Nostalted nerds, think about this. You and some
of your high school friends. You are trying to get
laid for the very first time by maybe going to
a house party. That's right, tonight have party theme is
notable nuggets.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Yea yeah, yeah, yeah, no, you did really get on
that intro. I forgot we were recording.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Yeah yeah, that's normally how I start conversations is by
pumping everybody up.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
And then when you were talking, I was picturing you
outside at nighttime. Yeah yeah, that's normal thing people say.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Yeah, so I'm just gonna be talking about some things
that we're from our childhoods. Do you want to go first?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Yeah, I'll go first, Okay, Andy, What I am nostalgic
for this week is okay, So there's a broader one too.
So I'm nostalgic for toys and like the excitement of
buying things, like getting something new. Yeah, And I referenced
this like like for Christmas, the best gift to ever
been talked about this before was supervan City micro machine.
(01:51):
Like that was so bomb but I was so excited
about that tangible thing. But nowadays, like I missed the
days of buying toys and because now I get super
excited buying like a essential oil diffuser, oh sure, or
cleaning supplies. When I stock up on my cleaning supplies,
I'm like, this is got my faby losa, I got
you know, that kind of thing. But I missed the
(02:12):
days of like opening up and I'm just like, oh,
I bought this on I have imagination time now. Sure.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Now, I remember I was really into like the wrestling
guys and like, so I had like a shit ton
of them and we had like the ring and so
I remember getting a new one of those is always
so fucking like awesome. But do you think part of
it is because you can't enjoy it now because of
like responsibility.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yeah, and you're like, oh, I can't go buy these
this Lego set because I gotta go buy Fabiola also
or whatever. Yeah, and also it could be a part
I think it is like now when I want something,
I just go and buy it. I don't wait anymore.
When you were younger, when we got a toy, for
the most part, it was like we had to wait
months for a new toy or something, you know.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
So yeah, and I too, I would always take care
of my toys, like and just my personal belongings because
it was such a rarity, like you were saying. But nowadays,
I can just buy a new phone thankfully if I
need one, because I just noticed, like all of my screen,
like my screen's cracked and my lenses for pictures are cracked.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah. So imagine if you had to wait till Christmas
for her phone that, yeah, it was, but you would
love the phone. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
And some people might say, like Jeremy might say, like, oh,
just keep the cell phone because like whatever, I'm like,
I judge people that have that have cracked cell phones,
Like I you if you can't not drop your phone constantly?
Like what are we doing?
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, that's why I got rid of my fold my
Samsung Folk because I loved it, but it was five
hundred dollars to fix the screen and I broke him twice.
So I'm like, apparently I can't have this phone. I
went back to just the normal phone. But it was nice.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
But what do you have on your phone that makes
it spectacular this one? Oh yeah, tell us the listener, Samsung, No,
what you added to the phone? Oh?
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Yes, I am now h I'm now a cell phone wallet.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Person who listen play the sound?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
There we go. Ready, that's shutting. It's like a wallet
type thing. But because I was thinking about it, I
rarely ever have cash on me. Yeah, since like twenty
or twenty twenty, I never have cash on me. So
what's the point of a wallet when I only have
like a credit card, a debit card, my Costco card,
and my ID.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
The people who have cash on them are the same
people that have crack cell phones. Like you know that
there's I'm gonna do some research and get back to
you guys on this, but I think that there's a
connection between cell phone breaking and cash holding.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
And I bet a lot of that connection goes back
to when they were in school and they would just
jam shit into their backpacks without putting it in the folder.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
First women put that like in their bra and there,
or they're brazier, like they put cash in there.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Yeah. Sometimes if we're going to a concert like a
festival and you can't bring your own alcohol in, I'll
get a bunch of little bottles. Now it's a lot
easier because they don't pat you down anymore. But they
used to pat you down. But I'd get a lot
of little bottles of liquor and then Kathy would put
it in her bra.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
That's awesome, yeah right, but we don't put stuff in
our pants.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I have. So I went to a concert Sebroso Festival.
It was awesome. First time I saw Offspring, it was great.
Pennywise was there. It was there's the other bands.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
With the band Pennywise.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yeah nice, and it was awesome. But what I did
was I wore swim trunks that night, and I brought
a pint of vodka and I put it in my
swim trunks right by my bowels, so they can't pat
you down there. So then I was a drinking walk
all day.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Oh my god, if they did pat you down there
you both got your alcohol and it's actually assaulted, it's
double where. Yeah, that'd be a bad day.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
But I went to Sniding those Reds kids and it's
the Indian rap group right nice. And I haven't been
padded down, and I I don't know. I probably go
to ten show ten concerts a year. Yeah, I don't
know the number. I haven't been past for the last
fifty concerts, I haven't padded down. But I went to
an Indian concert and they padded and they patted us
down a lot. And I'm like, I get it, Indians
(05:45):
are drunks, But I mean.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Do you think it's some of the music you listened to?
Like if they banned guns and weapons from the move
from the concert, nobody would ever come because most of
their audience probably has weapons.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Yeah, well maybe?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Or was that is that racism because of no no
or not racism? Like rockism?
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Oh yeah, maybe, I don't know. I got a lot
of like like punk shows.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
When I went and saw Mandy Moore live and and
then in the nineties or whatever, like they patted me
down and I was a child because most people would
probably try to kill Mandy Moore.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
I had a huge cr I had a picture Mandy
Moore in my locker. I thought she was so hot,
right yeah, And then right underneath that, oh don't know.
And my buddy Dela had a locker right next to me,
and his little brother was born, and he had a
thing on us uh on his locker and said, I'm
a boy, and it had all his brother's stats and everything.
But every time he opened it up, I'm like, yes,
(06:43):
you are a delo good job.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
If Mandy Moore went to school with us, she would
be that loser, freak kid who probably like licked their
arms like she just she wouldn't be Mandy Moore. She
would be nobody.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Do you have a beef with Mandy Moore?
Speaker 2 (06:58):
No, i'mould say she just wouldn't be that great. If
she wasn't Mandymore, I.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Think she'd probably been the hottest girl in our school.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
That was that who was Yeah, there were let's not
go back, but there are a lot of dogs. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
This one popular girl showed up to school one time
in eighth grade and she had toothpaste on her overalls
and I just was like, what the fuck like. I
was like, were they all our friends were like here,
let me get that off for you, and I'm over
here just like actual smoke a sticker and being like, hmm,
I bet that is I bet that's not too fazy.
(07:36):
I was making joke. Yeah exactly, Yeah, yeah, so he
was a horrible kid. Anyways, Andy, what are you nostalgic for?
Speaker 1 (07:45):
What I am nostalgic for? I remember now, That's why
I did the intro. I forgot is I miss going
to house parties? So yeah, house parties. Sometimes you got
in like crazy fight. Sometimes you get hooked up with
some chicks. Sometimes you'd run from the cops. Sometimes just
be a chill night. Sometimes you would light fireworks in
the house. Sometimes you would smash all the sinks up
(08:08):
for some reason when it wasn't your house. Sometimes you
would just piss all over the bathroom because it's not
your house. You don't respect these people. You don't know
house you're at. You know, I went to so many
crazy house parties growing up. One time we went to
this party and it was they got it. It was
an eviction party. It was a it was a destruction party.
So we're just smashing the fucking couches or kicking holes
(08:30):
in the wall all the glass that were in the kitchen.
We were playing baseball with it, which is super fucking dangerous. Yeah,
it was. I've been to those type of parties. I've
also been to parties where like bands were playing in
the basement. You got, it's a lot of fun. Just
like it just stinks because everybody's like sweating and there's
like drugs and alcohol and like just the part of
(08:50):
the reason I think I miss house parties is because
it was always so volatile, because you know, you go
to a house party, maybe there's two or three people
you don't know, but maybe they can call their friends,
and now it's like thirty people you don't know, and
there's like thirty of your friends and then you know
there's only a few girls there or whatever. So of
course if I's gonna break out, and then you have
to like fight and try to run out and stuff,
(09:10):
whose house is this? You know, Like it just it
was fun, it was dangerous, you know.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
So that's an amazing one. Like it's very like nostalgic.
So two things. Kyle, when a childhood friend, when we
would sneak out of his house to go somewhere with people.
He would put like bodies like we're not bodies, like
make look like we're sleeping. Oh sure, and then he
(09:35):
put a pen or a pencil go in vertical under
his So then it would make his mom even more
uncomfortable if she came in and her son had a boner,
like she would not investigate further.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
A lot of friends to steal their parents' cars before
they had their license and stuff. And then one of
our friends crashed his mom's car and then yeah, I
luckily it wasn't too bad, but yeah, and then a
lot of times would do that because there's a party
and like wood burn or something that I've heard about,
so somebody would steal from the parents car. And it's
fucking crazy because like my daughter's so a couple like
(10:10):
last weekend or the weekend before looks like having to
be home a little late tonight, and I'm like, oh,
what's going on. She goes, Oh, I'm going to a
symphony in Eugene, and so her and her friends like
dressed up and it was like this beautiful symphony and
she showed me pictures like it was awesome, right, like
when I was your age, I was like, it's like
going one hundred miles prior in a car because someone's
chasing us.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Yeah, you know, like we got it.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
What did you steal from them? I stole everything. We're
like fuck.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
You know.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
There were times where I'd go to house parties my
buddy Nick, especially, We're at this house party or I
actually wasn't there, but he went to this house party.
He didn't know anybody there, and they were all like
twenty three, twenty four and he was like twenty twenty one,
so I was about eighteen, and he goes, Dude, I
got left alone in this house. I don't know who's
who these people are. Can you come pick me up?
I'm like sure. When I get there, he has the
(10:59):
TV friend he fucking stole everything about and he's like,
come on, he sold the speakers, everything, and he never
got caught because nobody knew who the fuck he was.
He's like, somebody brought me here. So we was like
crazy like that.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
We were Kayleen, my best friend and I we were
going to some house party after going out to the
bar some his house afterwards, and I stopped at the
Comedian store to get, you know, a gatorade and whatever,
and this woman was out front crying, like sitting on
the ground crying alone. This is like one o'clock in
the morning, two o'clock in the morning, and I'm like, hey,
(11:34):
what's going on, you know, like hey, chin up, you know,
and then she was We introduced ourselves and I was like, hey,
if you're not doing anything, do you want to come
to this house party? And so we invited this unhoused
woman who was crying. So then we go to the
house party and then I immediately go to like the
host's bedroom and like, you know, and then you off. No, no,
(11:58):
we were like, you know, hanging out at the time,
and and then after I was done, then Kleine and
I bounced I'm curious and left the homeless person. Yeah,
got it, Okay, I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
I don't know. I was like, I was like, what
are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (12:16):
No, no, no, no, no, no, I never got a.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Date home, go to their house, house sex with him,
and just leave home.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Yeah. So we yeah, and so we never really interacted
with this woman, and we just left her there like
maybe twenty minutes after we got there, and then we
just left home. Person in someone's house. She would know
she was like a little bit younger, like a young adult,
and she like, you know, dressed cute and stuff.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
So she could have been recently homeless too.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Yeah, so she really like I don't know if she was,
I don't know what was going on in her life.
Definitely I got the vibe of drug use. Got that
like you're.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Like, we should we should take her to this house
and leave.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
She might have going through withdrawls.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
It's not funny. It's especially awful because like she was
probably around somewhere she knew, and taking her a different
part of town. How am I going to get back
to the convenience store?
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Oh my god? Yeah, we did ask enough questions.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I might have told the story before. But one time
I was drinking with my dad in Portland and we
met that homeless person I tell you about this.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Mm hmmm.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
So we're drinking and there's this dude out front and
uh he seemed he seemed kind of cool, and everybody's like, hey,
you got a few dollars. We're like yeah, man, and
we're drinking. We've already been drinking, so we're like, hey,
you want we'll buy some beer? Do you want to?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:46):
He was like sure, so we go to this bar.
It's pretty cool. We're having a bunch of beer, taking
shots and everything, and then we start bar hopping with him, right,
and then, uh, he kept calling my dad haut Coogan, right,
and he seemed really cool with my dad, right, But
then I don't know if you really liked white people,
because we eventually get to this bar and it's not
like a dive bar, but it's not like a really
nice but it's just like a normal bar. Right. Well,
(14:07):
there's this like family eating and there are this table
and uh, right when we walk in, his name was Billy,
I remember that. But he looks at this he's like, hey,
you guys got a few dollars and they're like, nah,
sorry man. He's like, you white motherfuckers, I know you
got some motherfucking money, and he's like yelling at the bar.
We just we're like, oh no, what are we gonna do?
So then he starts asking you if you like come
home with us, and I'm like, nah, man, I'm sorry,
(14:28):
but so well, here's ten dollars and we leave him
at the bar. Right, but if you think about it, damn,
it's so fucked up. We just got this dude, liquoring
up and he's clearly angry and his mental leave.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Like, I think we're I think we're doing great things.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Without fully maybe thinking it through.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
I think we're we're almost there, like almost like a
big brother Big sister program for I house.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Was maybe like, hey, do you want to go get
some food and the ho hell to night? Yeah, But
instead we just pumped a full of liquor in the left. Yeah,
God damn it. And you can't call my dad.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Like people always like, don't give people that are paying
handeling money because there's gonna buy alcohol. I'm like, this
girl did not buy any alcohol that night, Like we
helped her out, We didn't get for anything.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Yeah, yeah, so we're good people.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
I saw Modest at WHO one time, and on the
way back, my buddy was Mark, he was on the podcast.
We get back to Salem and he's so fucked up.
He just it's a red light and he's like, I
can't I'm too fucked up. I can't drive anymore. So
he just gets out on State Street and it's his
car and he starts walking off and I'm like, what
what do you want me to do? I say, meet
me by the subway on State Street.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Yeah, so okay, cool.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
So I get in the car and start driving. But
these two houseless dudes there right, and I have a
case in the trunk and I'm like, hey, this is
very bad to say now. And I was like, hey, bums,
do you guys want to party? And they're like sure.
So I pull over and we start drinking. They're fucking great. Yeah.
One of them had such a beautiful singing voice because
I was all drunk, and we were like beatboxing, you know,
(16:05):
like that yeah rapping, and he was like singing.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
He killed.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
But then it's starting really creepy, and I was like, oh,
now I know why. You know you're out here because
reality is really not for you.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
So though we would Kayleen and our old friend Kayla.
We would drive around on you know, probably cloudy headed,
and then we would pull over by people at night
and start get out the cards, start dancing loudly. We
were called the Phantom Dancers, and we did it for
just one night, but there was like somebody like working
(16:35):
on there, like tire that blue or something, and we
just pulled over and like dance moon left.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
No, I wasna say last, my last little anecdote for
this episode is that I told you about this. I
was up in portlandly Levine, and I was at a
comedian store because I like love comedience stores, and.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Most of the story is starting.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Most of my life is that convenience story card Heart. Yeah, yeah,
like I'm norm on cheers. There's like a dreff. I'm like, so,
so I was not a Cumius story at night in
the in the car and I was just on my
phone or whatever, and this guy like tapped on my
window and like tried to get into my car, and
I swear to god, it looked like somebody we went
(17:16):
to high school with.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Oh, I think he did tell me.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
I did tell you, so I'll tell you again after.
But so for a long time until recently, I was
telling people that he's not doing well and and everything,
and then and like tried to get into my car.
And then I found out recently from you that it
could not have been him, and he had you know
(17:41):
it wasn't him. Okay, So I've been like perpetrating this lie,
Like this is why we needed to check sources instead
of not I was probably faded in the middle of
the night.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Well you probably can't be like, hey, give me your ID.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
It looked like him. But also I was probably traumatized
because and it might not have I don't know. But anyway,
as long as very short, I miss those days of parties,
parties and transporting and feeding alcohol to unhouse people. Okay,
what were you nostalgic for? How's party's?
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (18:11):
I was nostalgic for like toys if Yesteryear and the
enjoyment of playing with yourself, like with imagination. Follow us

pumping everybody up.

Yeah, so I'm just gonna be talking about some things
that we're from our childhoods. Do you want to go first?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Yeah, I'll go first, Okay, Andy, What I am nostalgic
for this week is okay, So there's a broader one too.
So I'm nostalgic for toys and like the excitement of
buying things, like getting something new. Yeah, And I referenced
this like like for Christmas, the best gift to ever
been talked about this before was supervan City micro machine.
(01:51):
Like that was so bomb but I was so excited
about that tangible thing. But nowadays, like I missed the
days of buying toys and because now I get super
excited buying like a essential oil diffuser, oh sure, or
cleaning supplies. When I stock up on my cleaning supplies,
I'm like, this is got my faby losa, I got
you know, that kind of thing. But I missed the
(02:12):
days of like opening up and I'm just like, oh,
I bought this on I have imagination time now. Sure.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Now, I remember I was really into like the wrestling
guys and like, so I had like a shit ton
of them and we had like the ring and so
I remember getting a new one of those is always
so fucking like awesome. But do you think part of
it is because you can't enjoy it now because of
like responsibility.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yeah, and you're like, oh, I can't go buy these
this Lego set because I gotta go buy Fabiola also
or whatever. Yeah, and also it could be a part
I think it is like now when I want something,
I just go and buy it. I don't wait anymore.
When you were younger, when we got a toy, for
the most part, it was like we had to wait
months for a new toy or something, you know.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
So yeah, and I too, I would always take care
of my toys, like and just my personal belongings because
it was such a rarity, like you were saying. But nowadays,
I can just buy a new phone thankfully if I
need one, because I just noticed, like all of my screen,
like my screen's cracked and my lenses for pictures are cracked.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah. So imagine if you had to wait till Christmas
for her phone that, yeah, it was, but you would
love the phone. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
And some people might say, like Jeremy might say, like, oh,
just keep the cell phone because like whatever, I'm like,
I judge people that have that have cracked cell phones,
Like I you if you can't not drop your phone constantly?
Like what are we doing?
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, that's why I got rid of my fold my
Samsung Folk because I loved it, but it was five
hundred dollars to fix the screen and I broke him twice.
So I'm like, apparently I can't have this phone. I
went back to just the normal phone. But it was nice.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
But what do you have on your phone that makes
it spectacular this one? Oh yeah, tell us the listener, Samsung, No,
what you added to the phone? Oh?
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Yes, I am now h I'm now a cell phone wallet.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Person who listen play the sound?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
There we go. Ready, that's shutting. It's like a wallet
type thing. But because I was thinking about it, I
rarely ever have cash on me. Yeah, since like twenty
or twenty twenty, I never have cash on me. So
what's the point of a wallet when I only have
like a credit card, a debit card, my Costco card,
and my ID.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
The people who have cash on them are the same
people that have crack cell phones. Like you know that
there's I'm gonna do some research and get back to
you guys on this, but I think that there's a
connection between cell phone breaking and cash holding.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
And I bet a lot of that connection goes back
to when they were in school and they would just
jam shit into their backpacks without putting it in the folder.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
First women put that like in their bra and there,
or they're brazier, like they put cash in there.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Yeah. Sometimes if we're going to a concert like a
festival and you can't bring your own alcohol in, I'll
get a bunch of little bottles. Now it's a lot
easier because they don't pat you down anymore. But they
used to pat you down. But I'd get a lot
of little bottles of liquor and then Kathy would put
it in her bra.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
That's awesome, yeah right, but we don't put stuff in
our pants.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I have. So I went to a concert Sebroso Festival.
It was awesome. First time I saw Offspring, it was great.
Pennywise was there. It was there's the other bands.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
With the band Pennywise.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yeah nice, and it was awesome. But what I did
was I wore swim trunks that night, and I brought
a pint of vodka and I put it in my
swim trunks right by my bowels, so they can't pat
you down there. So then I was a drinking walk
all day.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Oh my god, if they did pat you down there
you both got your alcohol and it's actually assaulted, it's
double where. Yeah, that'd be a bad day.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
But I went to Sniding those Reds kids and it's
the Indian rap group right nice. And I haven't been
padded down, and I I don't know. I probably go
to ten show ten concerts a year. Yeah, I don't
know the number. I haven't been past for the last
fifty concerts, I haven't padded down. But I went to
an Indian concert and they padded and they patted us
down a lot. And I'm like, I get it, Indians
(05:45):
are drunks, But I mean.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Do you think it's some of the music you listened to?
Like if they banned guns and weapons from the move
from the concert, nobody would ever come because most of
their audience probably has weapons.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Yeah, well maybe?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Or was that is that racism because of no no
or not racism? Like rockism?
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Oh yeah, maybe, I don't know. I got a lot
of like like punk shows.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
When I went and saw Mandy Moore live and and
then in the nineties or whatever, like they patted me
down and I was a child because most people would
probably try to kill Mandy Moore.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
I had a huge cr I had a picture Mandy
Moore in my locker. I thought she was so hot,
right yeah, And then right underneath that, oh don't know.
And my buddy Dela had a locker right next to me,
and his little brother was born, and he had a
thing on us uh on his locker and said, I'm
a boy, and it had all his brother's stats and everything.
But every time he opened it up, I'm like, yes,
(06:43):
you are a delo good job.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
If Mandy Moore went to school with us, she would
be that loser, freak kid who probably like licked their
arms like she just she wouldn't be Mandy Moore. She
would be nobody.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Do you have a beef with Mandy Moore?
Speaker 2 (06:58):
No, i'mould say she just wouldn't be that great. If
she wasn't Mandymore, I.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Think she'd probably been the hottest girl in our school.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
That was that who was Yeah, there were let's not
go back, but there are a lot of dogs. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
This one popular girl showed up to school one time
in eighth grade and she had toothpaste on her overalls
and I just was like, what the fuck like. I
was like, were they all our friends were like here,
let me get that off for you, and I'm over
here just like actual smoke a sticker and being like, hmm,
I bet that is I bet that's not too fazy.
(07:36):
I was making joke. Yeah exactly, Yeah, yeah, so he
was a horrible kid. Anyways, Andy, what are you nostalgic for?
Speaker 1 (07:45):
What I am nostalgic for? I remember now, That's why
I did the intro. I forgot is I miss going
to house parties? So yeah, house parties. Sometimes you got
in like crazy fight. Sometimes you get hooked up with
some chicks. Sometimes you'd run from the cops. Sometimes just
be a chill night. Sometimes you would light fireworks in
the house. Sometimes you would smash all the sinks up
(08:08):
for some reason when it wasn't your house. Sometimes you
would just piss all over the bathroom because it's not
your house. You don't respect these people. You don't know
house you're at. You know, I went to so many
crazy house parties growing up. One time we went to
this party and it was they got it. It was
an eviction party. It was a it was a destruction party.
So we're just smashing the fucking couches or kicking holes
(08:30):
in the wall all the glass that were in the kitchen.
We were playing baseball with it, which is super fucking dangerous. Yeah,
it was. I've been to those type of parties. I've
also been to parties where like bands were playing in
the basement. You got, it's a lot of fun. Just
like it just stinks because everybody's like sweating and there's
like drugs and alcohol and like just the part of
(08:50):
the reason I think I miss house parties is because
it was always so volatile, because you know, you go
to a house party, maybe there's two or three people
you don't know, but maybe they can call their friends,
and now it's like thirty people you don't know, and
there's like thirty of your friends and then you know
there's only a few girls there or whatever. So of
course if I's gonna break out, and then you have
to like fight and try to run out and stuff,
(09:10):
whose house is this? You know, Like it just it
was fun, it was dangerous, you know.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
So that's an amazing one. Like it's very like nostalgic.
So two things. Kyle, when a childhood friend, when we
would sneak out of his house to go somewhere with people.
He would put like bodies like we're not bodies, like
make look like we're sleeping. Oh sure, and then he
(09:35):
put a pen or a pencil go in vertical under
his So then it would make his mom even more
uncomfortable if she came in and her son had a boner,
like she would not investigate further.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
A lot of friends to steal their parents' cars before
they had their license and stuff. And then one of
our friends crashed his mom's car and then yeah, I
luckily it wasn't too bad, but yeah, and then a
lot of times would do that because there's a party
and like wood burn or something that I've heard about,
so somebody would steal from the parents car. And it's
fucking crazy because like my daughter's so a couple like
(10:10):
last weekend or the weekend before looks like having to
be home a little late tonight, and I'm like, oh,
what's going on. She goes, Oh, I'm going to a
symphony in Eugene, and so her and her friends like
dressed up and it was like this beautiful symphony and
she showed me pictures like it was awesome, right, like
when I was your age, I was like, it's like
going one hundred miles prior in a car because someone's
chasing us.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Yeah, you know, like we got it.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
What did you steal from them? I stole everything. We're
like fuck.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
You know.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
There were times where I'd go to house parties my
buddy Nick, especially, We're at this house party or I
actually wasn't there, but he went to this house party.
He didn't know anybody there, and they were all like
twenty three, twenty four and he was like twenty twenty one,
so I was about eighteen, and he goes, Dude, I
got left alone in this house. I don't know who's
who these people are. Can you come pick me up?
I'm like sure. When I get there, he has the
(10:59):
TV friend he fucking stole everything about and he's like,
come on, he sold the speakers, everything, and he never
got caught because nobody knew who the fuck he was.
He's like, somebody brought me here. So we was like
crazy like that.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
We were Kayleen, my best friend and I we were
going to some house party after going out to the
bar some his house afterwards, and I stopped at the
Comedian store to get, you know, a gatorade and whatever,
and this woman was out front crying, like sitting on
the ground crying alone. This is like one o'clock in
the morning, two o'clock in the morning, and I'm like, hey,
(11:34):
what's going on, you know, like hey, chin up, you know,
and then she was We introduced ourselves and I was like, hey,
if you're not doing anything, do you want to come
to this house party? And so we invited this unhoused
woman who was crying. So then we go to the
house party and then I immediately go to like the
host's bedroom and like, you know, and then you off. No, no,
(11:58):
we were like, you know, hanging out at the time,
and and then after I was done, then Kleine and
I bounced I'm curious and left the homeless person. Yeah,
got it, Okay, I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
I don't know. I was like, I was like, what
are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (12:16):
No, no, no, no, no, no, I never got a.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Date home, go to their house, house sex with him,
and just leave home.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Yeah. So we yeah, and so we never really interacted
with this woman, and we just left her there like
maybe twenty minutes after we got there, and then we
just left home. Person in someone's house. She would know
she was like a little bit younger, like a young adult,
and she like, you know, dressed cute and stuff.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
So she could have been recently homeless too.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Yeah, so she really like I don't know if she was,
I don't know what was going on in her life.
Definitely I got the vibe of drug use. Got that
like you're.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Like, we should we should take her to this house
and leave.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
She might have going through withdrawls.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
It's not funny. It's especially awful because like she was
probably around somewhere she knew, and taking her a different
part of town. How am I going to get back
to the convenience store?
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Oh my god? Yeah, we did ask enough questions.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I might have told the story before. But one time
I was drinking with my dad in Portland and we
met that homeless person I tell you about this.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Mm hmmm.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
So we're drinking and there's this dude out front and
uh he seemed he seemed kind of cool, and everybody's like, hey,
you got a few dollars. We're like yeah, man, and
we're drinking. We've already been drinking, so we're like, hey,
you want we'll buy some beer? Do you want to?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:46):
He was like sure, so we go to this bar.
It's pretty cool. We're having a bunch of beer, taking
shots and everything, and then we start bar hopping with him, right,
and then, uh, he kept calling my dad haut Coogan, right,
and he seemed really cool with my dad, right, But
then I don't know if you really liked white people,
because we eventually get to this bar and it's not
like a dive bar, but it's not like a really
nice but it's just like a normal bar. Right. Well,
(14:07):
there's this like family eating and there are this table
and uh, right when we walk in, his name was Billy,
I remember that. But he looks at this he's like, hey,
you guys got a few dollars and they're like, nah,
sorry man. He's like, you white motherfuckers, I know you
got some motherfucking money, and he's like yelling at the bar.
We just we're like, oh no, what are we gonna do?
So then he starts asking you if you like come
home with us, and I'm like, nah, man, I'm sorry,
(14:28):
but so well, here's ten dollars and we leave him
at the bar. Right, but if you think about it, damn,
it's so fucked up. We just got this dude, liquoring
up and he's clearly angry and his mental leave.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Like, I think we're I think we're doing great things.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Without fully maybe thinking it through.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
I think we're we're almost there, like almost like a
big brother Big sister program for I house.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Was maybe like, hey, do you want to go get
some food and the ho hell to night? Yeah, But
instead we just pumped a full of liquor in the left. Yeah,
God damn it. And you can't call my dad.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Like people always like, don't give people that are paying
handeling money because there's gonna buy alcohol. I'm like, this
girl did not buy any alcohol that night, Like we
helped her out, We didn't get for anything.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Yeah, yeah, so we're good people.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
I saw Modest at WHO one time, and on the
way back, my buddy was Mark, he was on the podcast.
We get back to Salem and he's so fucked up.
He just it's a red light and he's like, I
can't I'm too fucked up. I can't drive anymore. So
he just gets out on State Street and it's his
car and he starts walking off and I'm like, what
what do you want me to do? I say, meet
me by the subway on State Street.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Yeah, so okay, cool.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
So I get in the car and start driving. But
these two houseless dudes there right, and I have a
case in the trunk and I'm like, hey, this is
very bad to say now. And I was like, hey, bums,
do you guys want to party? And they're like sure.
So I pull over and we start drinking. They're fucking great. Yeah.
One of them had such a beautiful singing voice because
I was all drunk, and we were like beatboxing, you know,
(16:05):
like that yeah rapping, and he was like singing.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
He killed.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
But then it's starting really creepy, and I was like, oh,
now I know why. You know you're out here because
reality is really not for you.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
So though we would Kayleen and our old friend Kayla.
We would drive around on you know, probably cloudy headed,
and then we would pull over by people at night
and start get out the cards, start dancing loudly. We
were called the Phantom Dancers, and we did it for
just one night, but there was like somebody like working
(16:35):
on there, like tire that blue or something, and we
just pulled over and like dance moon left.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
No, I wasna say last, my last little anecdote for
this episode is that I told you about this. I
was up in portlandly Levine, and I was at a
comedian store because I like love comedience stores, and.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Most of the story is starting.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Most of my life is that convenience story card Heart. Yeah, yeah,
like I'm norm on cheers. There's like a dreff. I'm like, so,
so I was not a Cumius story at night in
the in the car and I was just on my
phone or whatever, and this guy like tapped on my
window and like tried to get into my car, and
I swear to god, it looked like somebody we went
(17:16):
to high school with.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Oh, I think he did tell me.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
I did tell you, so I'll tell you again after.
But so for a long time until recently, I was
telling people that he's not doing well and and everything,
and then and like tried to get into my car.
And then I found out recently from you that it
could not have been him, and he had you know
(17:41):
it wasn't him. Okay, So I've been like perpetrating this lie,
Like this is why we needed to check sources instead
of not I was probably faded in the middle of
the night.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Well you probably can't be like, hey, give me your ID.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
It looked like him. But also I was probably traumatized
because and it might not have I don't know. But anyway,
as long as very short, I miss those days of parties,
parties and transporting and feeding alcohol to unhouse people. Okay,
what were you nostalgic for? How's party's?
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (18:11):
I was nostalgic for like toys if Yesteryear and the
enjoyment of playing with yourself, like with imagination. Follow us
