Speaker 1 (00:11):
Hey, welcome to water Cooler. Thank you so much for
tuning in and hanging out with us. You know how
the show goes. I Chris locks him on a kick
it with my Corolla digital buds of yesteryear with me today.
All the way in No Hoo, Cia, we're joined by
mister Mike Dawson.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Big six to now Domino.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
Motherfucker took the words, Kaylen, he took your intro, so
you got me ere think of something new now? Uh?
And then all the way in Long Beach, California, like myself,
it's kaylin bean, what's going on that that sucks? Man?

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Oh? Do I need to switch up my intro? It's
it's classic, It's yeah. And then As switches it up
every week.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
And then he's back. We missed him last week, but
he has made his triumphant return and he has an
amazing excuse. It's mister why he was gone that I
didn't know about till three minutes ago. It's mister Matt Fondelier,
Hey brother, Hey Matt, why did you miss the seven banger?
What the hell?

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Man?

Speaker 1 (01:12):
Where were you?

Speaker 4 (01:13):
You know? I'm glad you say it now because I
was gonna say one of my main uh, my main
complaints about.

Speaker 5 (01:17):
Last week's episode.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
No reference to the fact that last week's episode was
the seven Banger.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Yeah, that's your job. Well, well we all knew it, Klin. Yeah,
Dawson wouldn't stop talking about it before the episode. But
then we're like, Matt's not here.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yeah, it just.

Speaker 6 (01:33):
Weirdt a few other I got a few other group
texts going on besides ours, and I told all of them, dude,
today is the seven Banger.

Speaker 5 (01:41):
Listen.

Speaker 4 (01:41):
It's fine because, as far as I understand, after seven
sixty nine's you might need an extra digit.

Speaker 5 (01:47):
So this is okay, This is okay.

Speaker 6 (01:50):
It's replacement of that digit, though that concerns me.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
All right, So I was not here because I was
at a concert.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
You missed, you missed a momentous episode, like well, hold.

Speaker 5 (02:04):
On, hold on. I'm every week. Every week.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
I email you guys on Mondays and I say, what's
everybody's schedules this week? And I said, I can go
any day except for Wednesday. It's the one day that
I can't go and everybody else there was some talk
of Wednesday, there was some talk of Thursday. But you
know what, I can't be the one to be like,
you know what, it's got to be Thursday so that

(02:30):
I can be here even though Kaitlan can't be here.
I already did that to him during our dark week,
our dark night week, And as far as I know,
Kiln has never forgiven me. He's never looked at me
the same way. You know, we used to exchange texts and.

Speaker 7 (02:44):
He's always like radio silence.

Speaker 5 (02:46):
Yeah exactly.

Speaker 4 (02:47):
So I thought, you know what, I'm going to be
a hero. I'm going to tell you guys, go ahead,
do a show without me, and I'll catch you o'all
next week.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
It was pretty heroic.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Okay, thank you. I have the chain in front of me,
and let me read. Let me read how it went. Okay, guys,
I'm unavailable Wednesday. This is Matt. I'm unavailable Wednesday, but
I can do other nights. Let me know what works best.
And basically Gary says, I don't know for me. Kalon says,
I can probably only swing Wednesday or Thursday. I said
I'm good any night because that that's how important the

(03:19):
show is to me, especially for the seven banger. Dawson says,
I'm probably good whenever. So it sounds like everybody is
good for Thursday. No, no, no, no, And then I've
been reading it right now.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
That is true, Matt. So no, no, no, I'm reading it
right now.

Speaker 5 (03:40):
I'm also reading it right now.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
And Chris said, you you did not read your proper email,
my friend. Okay, Chris, Chris has a selective memory.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
A lot of times he reads selective emails.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Yeah, I read this what dot dot and I clicked
it and it said but Thursday. That's okay. So it
was just it was all four of you versus three,
and Matt's like, you guys go, you guys go Wednesday.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
No, Chris, we need you as our leader. You are
you are the one who is supposed to be on
every episode.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
And then okay, well here's the now, here's the private
chat with me and Matt.

Speaker 5 (04:25):
No, not real, already, not real.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
We don't have right now.

Speaker 7 (04:30):
You mean you mean just your texts.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
Yeah, it starts off with Matt sending me up another
field wordle again and I read It's okay, but you'll
get it eventually.

Speaker 8 (04:40):
Hang in there.

Speaker 5 (04:41):
What are the dates on that?

Speaker 1 (04:42):
This is last week? So this is May eight.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
I'm looking at a text, our last text three weeks ago.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
Another field word again it's okay, Matt, you'll get it.
But Chris, I haven't gone a wordl right in over
eight months. Oh my god, I don't know what to do.
And then I said, Matt, it's okay, you got this, buddy,
just keep reading. And you said you're right. And then
you said, hey about the about the water cooler, I'm
going to miss it. And I said, but it's the

(05:09):
seven banger, Matt. I don't care. I don't give an
f about those. Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
Wow, all right, this is probably not the right time
to bring this up. But I cannot be here next week.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
I can't do any days.

Speaker 4 (05:24):
I'm not available next week for real.

Speaker 5 (05:26):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
I won't be here.

Speaker 5 (05:30):
But I love you guys, and I listen. I'll listen.
Why because my mother in law's in town.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
Oh all right, that's fair, Yeah, that's fair.

Speaker 4 (05:38):
We haven't seen her since our wedding nine years ago,
a seven day hang.

Speaker 6 (05:45):
And she lives in Sweden, South Africa, close and she's
gonna come to Texas.

Speaker 5 (05:52):
She is coming.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
The weather might be the same.

Speaker 4 (05:54):
It's absolutely you know. That's the thing, Dawson. If this
woman complains about how hot it is, all know that
it's hotter than Africa.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
Yeah, and there's still there.

Speaker 6 (06:03):
There's also lots of poisonous and venomous things that can
that can hurt you there.

Speaker 5 (06:09):
Too, Dude, I have it in my backyard man preachers.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
I remember Larry Miller was sitting with me one day
and he goes, he goes a lot of people come
up to me and they just go, it's cold here,
but I bet it's not cold for you because you're
in New York. You're from New York. And then he
looks at me, he goes, I get pretty freaking cold here, man.
I don't think like it's all relative like. So if
she says it's hot there, I still think South Africa

(06:35):
is a is gonna be a little bit hotter. So
don't I'm just saying, don't. Don't take the comparison.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
You know.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
It's like people from Minnesota who come out here in
the winter, You're like, oh, I bet it's shorts weather
for you. Like, no, they're still cold. They're still cold sometimes.
But anyway, Matt, so you missed the seven banger to
go to a concert?

Speaker 5 (06:52):
I did.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
It was a concert.

Speaker 4 (06:54):
It is a band called Empire of the Sun. They're
like an electronics. Actually they've been around for a while
and they they fucking cook Man.

Speaker 5 (07:03):
It was amazing.

Speaker 4 (07:06):
I would say it is a little bit smaller than
the Greek It's like an outdoor amphitheater, uh type. Yeah,
maybe maybe a little bit more than that, because they
had like a big lawn in the back that you
could is like standing room only kind of a place.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
We had.

Speaker 4 (07:20):
We had some nice seats a little bit closer. But yeah,
it was a really great show. It's interesting because the
the band is really comprised of two guys primarily, and
I've seen them live before probably eight years ago, and
it was both guys, but now it's only one of
the guys that's on tour. The band is still together.

(07:43):
But I think the dude who's just kind of more
of a DJ producer kind of guy as opposed to
like super flamboyant singer kind of guy. The other guys like,
I don't think I need to be on tour with you.
You can go ahead and do your thing, just play
my music, and so that's what they do. But I'll
tell you did not miss a beat.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
You got to see. You got to see half a band.

Speaker 4 (08:04):
Yeah, Well, that guy who performs has a full band
that plays on stage, so it's got you know, drummer
and multiple guitar players and bass players, so you're you're
seeing a live music performance, but it's definitely a lot
of electronic stuff going on too. I'm glad crazy visualizers
it was awesome.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
Oh yeah, I bet all those all those kinds of
bands in those shows.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
I think you added a few, uh visuals.

Speaker 1 (08:30):
It's like the big thing that makes it, makes the visuals.
It's basically saying instead of saying, oh, it had really
great sound, you're saying, oh, I had really great sound.
Guys like they're the ones.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
They're the ones, the visualizers.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Yeah, they're the ones making it happen and matches them.

Speaker 6 (08:51):
Now, so you were you were cheering for for the
guy behind the guy.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
That's right, the guy who stayed home.

Speaker 6 (08:58):
That's really exactly that's yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
Okay, Well I'm glad we're talking about music because we
do have an aficionado here and I want to get
your thoughts. Yeah, So, Caitlin, what do you think this
was a this was a phenomenon. I'd say it's been
around for a long time, pretty hot in the nineties,
maybe the early two thousands. This is this is Kaylin's

(09:21):
bread and Butter. Here the DJ with the turntables in
a rock band. I mean I like it, Yeah, you do.
It's cool.

Speaker 7 (09:31):
I like that move.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
It's a cool vibe. I've never seen it, I don't think,
but I like it. I think that's yeah, I think
that's cool move.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
In Lincoln Park, of that Lincoln Park?

Speaker 5 (09:42):
Did it? Sure?

Speaker 6 (09:43):
I think to see it was done well. I realized
when it when it was done well, it was done well.
It was it was pleasing.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
Back in the day on Apple Music when it was
just called iTunes, you could play a song and then
you could turn on the visualizer oh shit, and it
would be like a laser light show basically like a screen, yeah,
like win app and it would kind of move along
with the beats of the music. So I'm realizing now

(10:13):
that's why I still call it a visualizer, even though
you're right, Dawson, it was just visuals. But in my
mind it's like a giant screensaver happening behind the band,
and that will always be a visualizer to me.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
Matt, you kids just can't help yourself.

Speaker 8 (10:26):
I saved you.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
I knew where you got it from. You want to
know why they call the visualizer because it's like the
equalizer for your eyes, right, So you have the equalizer
and yeah, it's just like that. Yeah, oh, equalizer for
your eyes? Is that the one where he's blind? Did
I spoil that.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
And you did?

Speaker 6 (10:47):
I don't know, Man, equalizer for your eyes is making
me think way too hard.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
I think you're trying to combine. I just can't. There
is no equalizer for your eyes.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Well you should go on for your brain though, You
should an equalizer for your brain, your mind.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
I guess.

Speaker 6 (11:03):
I guess if you're in photoshop and you are adjusting
the hue of a picture or on your iPhone, I
guess that's an equalizer for your eyes.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
I'm talking about Instagram. I want to talk color correction.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
You're to think it through.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
Yeah, it's like like, uh, you know, when you when
you're done with your audio track dos and then you
send it off to get it mastered, and they just
do all these little tweaks, but it makes it sound
exponentially more awesome. Color correction in the video world, Matt
knows all about it. You send you after you're done.
You don't have to send it off. Even people are
pretty good at it, and you just take the log footage,

(11:40):
it looks pretty flat. Add some color ship pops boom.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
Color correction is pretty racist, though, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Why do you have to do that here?

Speaker 8 (11:50):
Man?

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Why are you doing this on the show?

Speaker 2 (11:52):
I workshop, Yes, I like that.

Speaker 6 (12:00):
I didn't have that much of response, so I may
not turn it around. But uh, I went up and
did like eighty percent new material the other night, and
a lot of it. I first told the jokes here
and a few of you guys laughed, So how to go?
I actually fucking went incredible. It was one of the

(12:21):
one of the best sets, especially because it was all
new stuff.

Speaker 4 (12:24):
See, we're the perfect audience to do this in front of,
because you know, we'll always laugh eighty percent less than
than strangers will.

Speaker 2 (12:31):
If I can just get you guys to fuck, If
I can get Kaylin.

Speaker 5 (12:34):
To chuckle, you know it's gonna be good.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
I know it's all okay, Okay, we're on the right path.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
Klan is good is a good meter for that kind
of stuff. Yeah, but you're right. Lincoln Park did the
DJ in the.

Speaker 6 (12:45):
Band Lincoln Park did it well, dude, I really liked
that band.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
Yeah, Well, speaking of band. So I did have a
band who was ready to kid rock?

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Did it right?

Speaker 8 (12:52):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Kid rock? Kid rock is good?

Speaker 2 (12:54):
Rock started it, didn't he? Kid rock is actually just
the beastie boys might have.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
Kid rock is actually really impressive. Uh's he scratches, you know,
like kailin.

Speaker 8 (13:07):
You know, if you.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
Walked up to if you walked up to two turntables
and they were both spinning on a microphone and big
speakers all killing I can alright, tell Ken would want
to just scratch the f out of those records.

Speaker 3 (13:18):
Oh yeah, I mean when you see a turntable, that's
what that's the first thing that goes through.

Speaker 7 (13:22):
That's what you want to want to scratch it.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Yeah, yeah, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
It was Actually it felt like it was kind of
a sad day when they actually turn you know, went
from the turntables to just kind of the digital ones
and all the DJs.

Speaker 7 (13:31):
You said, I don't know, it felt like, ah, what
a bummer. I guess that.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Then it kind of seemed like they were doing a
little more. Now it's you know, everyone's ms are just
pressing a button, and it's like, I.

Speaker 6 (13:40):
Think it's a generational thing though, wanting to scratch because
I look at my turntable and all I want to
do is play a record. I don't want to fuck
up my turntable.

Speaker 5 (13:50):
Well, that's how I was going to ask.

Speaker 4 (13:51):
I know it's called scratching, but does it actually scratch
to the record?

Speaker 1 (13:56):
It f's up your records, does it?

Speaker 8 (13:57):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Oh yeah, like if you did that, if you did
that your friend's house, you just saw them they just scratch.
Let me do this this out Like.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
Back in the day when they were doing that a lot,
you know, the live djor whatever would have to get
new records for every time, Like you're.

Speaker 6 (14:15):
You know, now, I think there's enough parts of that
song that they are sampling in at the time. You know,
it's usually just a beat, and there are a bunch
of those beats, and they can burn, you burn, you know,
they can find that beat two minutes later on the record,

(14:37):
so there's no need to go out and replace the
record because you burnt a five second part.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
Yeah, it's all over the place. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Well anyway, Also, I was thinking of a band that's
been split up, kind of what Matt was saying. Third
Eye Blinded that in the sense that Stephen Jenkins amazing
songwriter as the self titled album is Chef's Kiss borderline
perfect if not uh terrible live guy cannot say.

Speaker 4 (15:10):
That's what I've always heard. I've always got afraid to
see them for that very reason.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
So they just go online and watch any video and
I challenge you to find one good version of semi
charmed life. Damn.

Speaker 5 (15:21):
Now it's one of my karaoke jams.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
I I appreciate that because there's a lot of lyrics
in that.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
So it's album.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
You're winning your way back from missing the seven banger.
You're not fully there yet, Matt, but you're you're getting
close real fast.

Speaker 6 (15:34):
Biker Crank specifically Rose, which was pink.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
So here's the thing. The guitarist, the guitarist and uh
Stephen Jenkins a singer there, they both like wrote the
songs or worked on songs together. They got into it
and they split up and the guitarist formed like a
Third Eye Blind cover band. I forget what they're called,
like X something like the third maybe that's what it.

Speaker 9 (15:57):
Was, Yeah, and just to really stick it to yeah
is that true?

Speaker 1 (16:09):
So, but what I heard was they were actually a
lot better than Third Eye Blind. So because singer, who
would you rather see the actual Third Eye Blind with
Stephen Jenkins singing, and it's not sounding as good, or
they're guitarist who started a separate band playing the same
songs but it's not Stephen Jenkins singing. I don't know, man, yeah,

(16:30):
and I don't.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
I would go don't.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
Rock band etiquette or music very well at all. But
doesn't that seem like kind of a bitch move to
like be like, I'm gonna go fucking just do everything
we did on my own now instead of being like, Hey,
I'm gonna go just do my own stuff and like
make my own stuff, instead of I'm just gonna do
everything we did but on my own.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
Instead you.

Speaker 7 (16:53):
Yeah, I'm sure it's very hard, but like.

Speaker 2 (16:54):
You get you get a couple of songs.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
Stuff now instead of just are you know, speaking of sure?

Speaker 1 (17:03):
I find this an opportune time to mention that I'm
starting my own podcast and I'm going to be going solo.

Speaker 5 (17:12):
Resume been there, done that, brow there done that.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
We're on hiatus. I'm on hiatus. But anyway, just something
I'm thinking about. So if people are that, let me know,
let me know in the case, in the case, what
you guys want, right, you guys.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
You're doing your own unique thing, and you don't have
just four of your other buddies talking.

Speaker 7 (17:37):
The same ship. I'm good anything, and that would then
that would be an original, original thing.

Speaker 6 (17:42):
Whether you can recall one of their songs or all
of you guys are familiar with Ambrosia now Ambrosia solid.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Yeah, you're the.

Speaker 6 (17:53):
Only woman that I'm dreaming of.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
That one. It did. Oh, I can't I think of
any more. Fuck.

Speaker 6 (18:04):
But if it's soft rock, dude, light rock with less talk,
it's Ambrosia anyway. The band owns the name, the singer
has to tour his David Pack. And in that case,
I'm going to see David Pack because I want the

(18:26):
guy who sings all of the Ambrosia songs, you know.
Yeah that makes sense even if even but because I
know he can also still perform. His voice was all
fucking cracky and ship and he didn't give a good performance.
That's a really hard question, dude. I really don't know

(18:51):
how to support in that case. It's a moral conundrum.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
I can help you out here. What you do is
you find out who have of the two acts has
the better visualizer, and you go to that one. Obviously,
because that's what You're gonna have a good time. You
could even miss theap banger if you want, because I
guess that's what we're doing now, is just missing milestone
episodes to go see good visualizers.

Speaker 5 (19:16):
Yeah, Gary's not here, but he's probably gonna be.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
Is Gary even still on this show?

Speaker 4 (19:23):
He works for Mark Garrigis, who last week, if I
could speak on his behalf, not Gegis, but Gary. Last week,
the Menenda's Brothers had some big you know, some turnover,
you know, instead of being life in prison now there
might be a chance of parole.

Speaker 5 (19:39):
And poor Gary is working.

Speaker 4 (19:41):
Like seven fucking full time jobs, including having to like
help Mark for any sort of media appearance he does.

Speaker 5 (19:48):
And if I'm not mistaken, after that.

Speaker 4 (19:50):
Menanda's Brothers thing, Mark was like, I'm gonna do every
media appearance I can and poor Gary has to drop
everything to part of that.

Speaker 7 (19:57):
I've seen him everywhere lately with the peop.

Speaker 5 (20:00):
So he still really wants to be here. He should be.
He will hopefully be on the Patreon show.

Speaker 1 (20:05):
It'll be on the Patreon Show. Yeah, I'm just kidding.
So he'll make his comeback, his triumphant return, and I
will give him ship on Patreon for missing said show,
but really more mad about Matt. Matt's like Matt, he's
the one that pulls that this is how you remind
me clips. He's really the He's the archive of this show.
He's the one that he's Mossa. Joan Harden can't hardly wait.

(20:27):
He's all about the good reference. I'm trying to be
timely here, mister. Sorry, Hey, they have a new album.

Speaker 6 (20:34):
All right, I have heard of that band.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
You know.

Speaker 4 (20:39):
To me, I always think when I think of Empire
of the Sun, I think of a Corolla ism, which
is when a band has so much visual element going on,
like they're trying to distract you from the fact that
they're not very good at what they do. Like that's
sort of his general stereotype of that kind of music,

(20:59):
And so I know it's a band that that Corolla
would absolutely dread. But in this scenario, I do think
that they're all very talented musicians and songwriters and they
are playing real music, but there is a huge visualizer
happening around the performance that I could see why people
would think these guys are just like putting on a show.

(21:22):
But I do happen to love a lot of their music,
so but I'm not sure if it's quite at your speed.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
No, I think it too. Empire of the Sun. That
was Bruis.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
Die Hard, Oh oh yeah, Christian Balley, so die Hard.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
I'm thinking of die Hard.

Speaker 7 (21:43):
Right all there.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
Cal actually thought Diehard earlier too, he just didn't say anything.
So speaking of doing playing music and having all these
cool visual visuals and visualizers to distract the audience. I
have seen a Vichy live. I've seen the Vichy live.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
He got one up on me. I don't think I
ever o whit. I think I saw Swedish House Mafia
one time.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
She was part Yeah, I went to he headlined, headlined
k Rocks almost no Weenie Roast in like twenty fourteen
and and yeah. So it was just kind of weird,
like they closed out with the DJ because this is
like a rock radio station, a one on a rock
radio station out here. But watched them, and man, he

(22:29):
needed those visuals hard because uh he went like it
was at spinning stages, was going from rock band to
rock band and then just one guy led screen in
front of his laptop, huge LEDs behind him, smoke cannon
shooting confetti like every every good visualizer you could think
of lasers and the best vision it really does.

Speaker 7 (22:52):
Like, yeah, you can't no other genres competing with that.
I could see what we As much as I love.

Speaker 3 (22:58):
EDM, kind of need the vision lizers for it when
you're there too.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
It's not just something you just want to listen to,
like while you're mowing the lawn or anything.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
It just makes it so much well, I mean I do,
but yeah, yeah, it just makes it so much better.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
It's the drugs, honest, rough too.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
But yeah, yeah, I know we got dude, have you
ever found Insomniac yet? I mean We've gone through seven
bangers already, and I'm getting worried about him. I would
like to interview him. I'd love to talk to him
about his brave days.

Speaker 3 (23:28):
He might have popped in a little bit at that
Caigo concert that we attended recently. There might have been
a little, uh, a little insomniac breaking out there when
those mushrooms are kicking in, but hell not, I have
not seen him around.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Yeah, I'd love to meet him. I'd love to meet him,
all right, So I just went golfing over the weekend.
I mean, Gary could provide some insight on this too,
But I guess I need your guys' help with I go.
I go out in the morning, it's like a four
and a half on a weekend, almost five hour round.

Speaker 7 (24:04):
How early do you go? What's what's like? The is
that like you got to wake up super early for that?

Speaker 1 (24:09):
You can my particular tea time t e E Klan
eight thirty.

Speaker 5 (24:15):
Five KALs family is from English.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
I know.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
That's why I had to ex had to explain it
to them.

Speaker 8 (24:22):
I know.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
The first thing he thought it was like, oh ear,
great little crumpets. Yeah, English breakfast, English breakfast. Excuse me, right?

Speaker 2 (24:30):
Can I have beans with my hags?

Speaker 1 (24:33):
Klin's right back, right back home. They're not from there.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (24:36):
I said it like that, uh citizen, yes, really your
dual citizen.

Speaker 7 (24:41):
I'm a citizen.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
Yeah. Fuck.

Speaker 3 (24:43):
I was like, I'm going to get dual citizenship so
I could go anywhere in the EU.

Speaker 7 (24:47):
Got it?

Speaker 3 (24:47):
Boom left the EU Like that's just like a month
after I got my passport.

Speaker 7 (24:51):
It was like, okay, Brexit, we're not part of the
EU anymore.

Speaker 5 (24:54):
Yeah, when you heard that, did you go e.

Speaker 8 (25:00):
Chris?

Speaker 1 (25:01):
You missed it?

Speaker 7 (25:03):
You miss I did I knew it was coming to
before you said it.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
Whatever, Matt opens his mouth, I think it's coming. I'm like,
oh God, what's happening right now? Anyway, So this particular
is eight thirty five. I had gone to summer as
early at six six oh five am kaelin share. But
I get home and it's a cliche, but it's also true.

(25:28):
I mean, you're leaving the wife to watch the kid
all morning, all the way to like nap right for
a ship.

Speaker 7 (25:36):
And you owe her.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
You really, it became you gotta do something. You come home,
You've got a few beers in you. You just you
just hung out with the boys.

Speaker 7 (25:48):
You can't just sit on the couch and watch the
dark night.

Speaker 8 (25:50):
You got right.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
But the only thing that I want to do when
I get home from a hard fought round with my boys,
drinking throw back beers and fireball shots, that's six five
in the morning.

Speaker 7 (26:05):
Yeah, dude, naps okay.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
Garri carry would understand, and Dawson actually would probably agree
with me, Like, nothing better than starting the day after
the cors latte the first thing.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
Yeah, man, right, you know what my shoes are off, bro.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
Dawson knows. I know they are kicking them off right now,
taking practice swings the first thing I want to do
when I cross the threshold of my home. So I
look at my wife, I go, I need a nap. Yeah,
I need a nap. Yeah, And she is, of course gone,
f no, watch the kid all you now. And it

(26:49):
is so hard to keep my eyes open during this point.
And oh man, and yeah, So if there's any like,
I'm drinking coffee, I'm I'm I'm taking laps, I'm doing
push ups. I'm trying to get the blood flow in here.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
That's good. That's good. Jumping jacks five hours, cherry pickers, uh,
cold water on your face, and head yoga.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
It's not the best advice because it's not gonna happen
for about another year and a half or two. But
once Benny, you know, hits that kind of two and
a half three year old, then you can actually time
out the naps with when you're coming home from the golf,
you guys can nap together. It's one of my favorite activities,
napping with my kids. But right now it's probably a

(27:36):
little bit more all over the place.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
It is. Yeah, so I can't I can't do that.
So it's just like I don't know how I can
get my nap. How do I get my post golf nap?

Speaker 7 (27:45):
So you know you can't.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
There has to be away.

Speaker 6 (27:49):
Yeah, no, Kaylin's route is the only way, Chris, this is,
this is you can.

Speaker 7 (27:54):
Wait it out.

Speaker 6 (27:55):
Just tell Jenny, Just tell Jenny. Look, I'm gonna go golf.
Just fucking keep Benny, please.

Speaker 7 (28:02):
The only other.

Speaker 3 (28:02):
Option is to invite people over to watch your Like.

Speaker 7 (28:08):
Hey, you guys want to come hang out?

Speaker 6 (28:09):
I got left, Garry's got a lot of free time.

Speaker 7 (28:14):
I'm just gonna just run in my room for a man.
I'll be right back. And then I fell asleep. Sorry,
well to trick someone else to watch them.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
And also, the thing about golf is you get the
weirdest tan lines. I have the craziest farmer's tan right now.
It's it's quite intense.

Speaker 6 (28:30):
You know you need to get, Chris, you need to
get a pair of oak Ley's so you can get
that tan.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
The sunglasses tan, the Oakley sunglasses tan. Yeah, yeah, I don't.
I'm not a sunglasses guy. Never never got into it.
But I have a big, old, big old farmer's stand
and I don't know why that's not desirable these days.
Why do I have to I have to worry about it?
You shows, It shows that you're out working. You know.
It's like, you know, gout was uh traditionally the rich

(29:00):
person's disease because they're they're the ones eating the good, rich,
purine filled meats.

Speaker 5 (29:06):
Listen, everyone says it. Farmers tans are in and gout
is out.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
That's just what I'm talking about. Matfens's Mouth.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
Street.

Speaker 6 (29:17):
I heard people talking about this in the elevator the
other day.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
Yeah, that's amazing.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
Well, I mean, some one thing that could help me
is surfing, which I know Caitlin's been doing.

Speaker 7 (29:29):
I did it today.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
You're out there in the green room hanging out, hanging loose,
hanging loose, hanging tansd to Long Beach.

Speaker 7 (29:36):
All I was trying.

Speaker 3 (29:37):
I went to Pulse of Chica actually old around back there,
the World Championship of Avocado Fest. Yeah, I went down there,
and you guys remember when I got really into it
last year. So I got a couple of classes in
and uh, like two weekends ago, we busted out like
the Kittie pool for the girls and all their water
toys and stuff, and we filled up the big blue
you know, kittie pool full of water, and I threw

(29:58):
my boogey board in them to in there to play with,
and my daughter got on it and had like the
time of her life, like she was having so much fun,
like pretending she was surfing, getting on it and like balancing.
She wanted to do it again the next day, and
I was like, you know what, Okay, I gotta I
gotta do this, because one of my worst qualities is
being like I'm gonna get into this thing and I'm

(30:19):
all about it, and then I just don't do it,
and then I'm like, god, damn it, why didn't I
do that? So I was like, all right, I'm gonna
get into this. I'm gonna learn surfing, I'm gonna get
good at it, and then years down the road, I'll
be able to teach my daughter. So I fucking went
out bought a surfboard on Sunday. Oh yeah, shout out
offer up great app for buying stuff like that. I've
bought and sold a lot of snowboarding gear on offer up,

(30:40):
pretty solid. Met a guy I was down here Long Beach.
She sold me an eight foot pham board Foamy, and
I was like, okay, this seems like the kind of
thing that I was practicing on before fucking went out
there today. Jumped on it and it was not. It
was a lot thinner and lighter than the other one,
and I fucking.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
Just I didn't.

Speaker 7 (30:56):
I didn't do well.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
You couldn't ride the foam.

Speaker 7 (30:58):
I couldn't ride the foamy at all.

Speaker 4 (30:59):
I.

Speaker 5 (31:01):
Actually do.

Speaker 4 (31:02):
I'm a little curious. Are we suggesting that you named
the board foamy?

Speaker 1 (31:07):
No?

Speaker 7 (31:08):
No, they're called They're called that's that's yeah.

Speaker 4 (31:11):
Does it have a name? I?

Speaker 7 (31:13):
You know what. I have not named it.

Speaker 5 (31:14):
Well, maybe that's why it doesn't respect you, Kaln.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
That's true, you have based on today's performers. It does
not respect me. I got fucked up.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
Wait, so, Kiln, did you expect to just go buy
a phoamy from some guy an offer up an eight
foot foamy, take it out to the to the Pacific
Ocean and just expect to just be cruising riding waves
all day?

Speaker 3 (31:36):
No, but I did expect to at least be able
to stand up on it, or almost stand up on it.

Speaker 7 (31:41):
One time.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
I took the two lessons last year and third the
first lesson, I got up and I was doing pretty decent.
The second lesson, the waves were fucking They just kicked
my ass. But I was expecting to like, Okay, I
can do this. I can at least kind of stand up.
And I didn't even come close. But I made a friend,
so that was cool.

Speaker 1 (31:59):
Tell me about this friend.

Speaker 7 (32:00):
His name is Josh met Uh.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
We were we were both surfing, you know, kind of
at the same like we would both tell each of
us sucked, but we were far enough away in where
we weren't talking, but we were kind of eyeing each
other like, oh yeah, you sucked too, Oh yeah, we
both suck, okay, and then we left.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
So you you were you met this guy because you
were both talking about He's like, You're like, you suck,
and he's like, do you suck too.

Speaker 3 (32:23):
It was we were telepathically telling each other that we
were the only felt it there.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
Yeah, were you both just doing that thing sitting and
straddling the board in.

Speaker 7 (32:29):
The other I couldn't even fucking straddle it. I kept
falling off. I couldn't even get up to the sip part.

Speaker 3 (32:34):
I was like I was standing up with the board
kind of at my chest, and when one would come by,
a jump on the board, and try and get up.

Speaker 7 (32:41):
I couldn't even handle the sit on this filmy. It's
it's really.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
It's well, don't let your daughter see that.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
Man.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
I'm just like, that's what that's my first uh my
first tip is you can't. And I'm just kidding. Props
that you're even getting out there, dude, And and uh,
I mean it was a beautiful day to day it was.
And pump that pump that you're doing that. So keep
us updating the surf. Anybody's name any surf tips for Kailin.

glad you're doing it, and I'll keep you updated. Yeah,
you're gonna you're gonna ride a full wave with that, phoney,
I am, I'm sure of it. And then take your
daughter out, well, she can she can learn how to

(33:52):
swim first, so she doesn't swim. Yeah, you should learn
that first.

Speaker 7 (33:56):
She needs to learn how to swim.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
Yeah, and then get on that this summer and you
guys can go out there and be grams together. All right,
that's a surf surfling. I don't really know what it means.
I've never served in my life, and it's it's embarrassing
that I'm in California and I live.

Speaker 6 (34:13):
I'm went surfing twice once on a full moon at
midnight in Ila Vista at Sands Beach and then.

Speaker 2 (34:24):
Yeah, Sands Beach, right.

Speaker 6 (34:25):
And then once during an El Nino year huge storm
at Rincon and almost got killed. One good time, one
bad time. I'm like, yeah, okay, I'll bat five hundred.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
I'm out.

Speaker 4 (34:39):
I think I tried surfing on my boogie board, which
you know, it's a foamy what can you say?

Speaker 5 (34:45):
They're just they're tough, you know, right going.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Now, I just like being from California and saying that
you've never from southern California even and just going yeah,
I've never surfed. It's kind of embarrassing. It's like it's
a bad dude, a Canadian. Oh, I've never ever had poutine,
never want to, never thought i'd try it. No, do
they that that? That's no maple sirup ever.

Speaker 2 (35:11):

Dude?

Speaker 6 (35:13):
You know what if you were a Canadian and you
never eaten patine, that too, man, that.

Speaker 5 (35:17):
Might be the first example you could use.

There there is a a comment left by a guy
in Australia which I did you guys see this? No,
I don't think so. So jackoff Remac nice totally said
that right, starting strong almost I said that right, jackoff

(36:51):
Remac he is from down Under, and he says, he
writes in the comments, I've been listening from the beginning
of the podcast again.

Speaker 2 (37:06):
I've been listening from the beginning of the podcast.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
I'm not going to do it. I don't want to ruin.
I don't want to ruin this comment with my awesome
Australian accent, although I am proud of how yeah on dassin,
he says, I've been listening from the beginning of the
podcast again. All the game, all the cornhole talk reminded
me of the first time I ever heard of cornhole

(37:30):
on the past episode in the picture and he put
a screenshot of one of the watercolor pictures Show and Tell,
Yard Games and Delivery Food from twenty twenty. Okay May
of twenty twenty. He said, I got my brother in
law to build me a corn hole set and it
became a cultural sensation. I think you're a phenomenon. It's fine.

Speaker 5 (37:52):
It became in Australia.

Speaker 1 (37:53):
It is.

Speaker 5 (37:53):
You're right, all right, it's a sensation.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
Yeah, it's a different It became a cultural sensation here
in Sydney amongst my friends, and we even started.

Speaker 4 (38:04):
It was a Sydney station, Sydney sationess.

Speaker 1 (38:08):
This is what I'm talking. It became a cultural sensation
here in Sydney amongst my friends. We even started an
annual tournament here every twenty fifth of April. Fair astrong
of you to say that date like that. In three
years it's grown to a picnic or party with three
hundred people. Forty eight husband and wife teams compete for

(38:31):
the United Cup. One hundred and fifty kilograms of meat,
seven hundred and fifty bread rolls, twenty kilograms of potato salad,
twenty kilograms of salad and a shipload of booze is
consumed this time. Dude, Come on, that sounds right, that
sounds right.

Speaker 2 (38:51):
Stop with the kilograms. Fucking We need to translate these
comments from Sydney now, thank you. Come on, dude, we
don't even know what a killogram is.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
You don't, okay, I can guarantee you one hundred and
fifty kills.

Speaker 6 (39:06):
A gram to me is a sack of weed that
has zero weight. One hundred things with zero weight is
one of their units of measurements.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
I don't understand it.

Speaker 4 (39:18):
That's right, jack, we'll get arrested all the week time.
Over there, they're just carrying hundreds of bags.

Speaker 1 (39:24):
All right, jackob we are going to need you to convert.
And this just goes for anybody that's not in America.
Please convert your please units translates the time because he's
in Texas. It's the right thing to do. It's the
right thing to do. Please, yes, So please already do

(39:44):
the math for us, or just use use marijuana as
a way to explain how heavy things are to because
that doesn't understand that unit as well. All right, one
hundred fifty kilos of meat you guys heard so he said,
this year we even raised thirty six hundred dollars. I'm
guessing au for our local church and multiple sclerosis charities.

(40:08):
Now I'm thinking.

Speaker 10 (40:10):
Chris just threw shade at the amount of money that
was raised downgrade.

Speaker 8 (40:14):
I'm guessing it's Australian money, real money.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
Well, no, I'm not. I'm not saying Australian money is real,
isn't real money. I'm just saying, because.

Speaker 10 (40:22):
There's a American dollars, US worlds do that.

Speaker 6 (40:30):
I'm also going to need you guys to write these
emails to translate into our currency. Yeah, please please put
everything and we want all emails and US dollars.

Speaker 1 (40:40):
Maybe he did, I said, I'm guessing maybe he did.

Speaker 2 (40:42):
There are sixteen ounces in a pound.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
So this year I didn't even know that. This year
I did. This year, we even raised thirty six hundred
dollars for our local church and multiple sclerosis charities.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
Good job.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
Yeah? Is that mean there are more than one rosis charity?
I just thought and he says, just thought i'd share
that the water cooler did this, so and he posted
pictures and there's like pictures of just huge crowd and yeah,
so this thing is growing and it's become like a

(41:17):
huge thing in the community. And guys, we made a
difference all the way in Australia. Hell yeah, crazy to
think about.

Speaker 5 (41:26):
It's awesome. Yeah, thanks for listening.

Speaker 1 (41:28):
So thanks Jackov. I'm not j A Kov j a
ko v.

Speaker 10 (41:36):
Guys, I feel like you have not been pronouncing it, like, yeah,

Speaker 1 (41:45):
I don't think you The worst part is it's funny
to you guys, but he's like, I get this all
the time. I didn't name myself. This sucks, like, yeah,
I've ever heard that one before.

I mean it's there, that's half your name.

Speaker 1 (42:02):
Well anyway, I just love that.

at mister Wonder Phil.

Speaker 7 (43:28):
There's a couple of different ways right in then, Well.

Speaker 4 (43:30):
I really would prefer people would just fucking post on
the Facebook grip. And to that point, I also would
prefer if they use the correct time code, because uh this, well.

Speaker 10 (43:39):
The problem is is that the time codes are very
very different.

Speaker 8 (43:44):
I know, I know, I know.

Speaker 4 (43:46):
All I'm saying is that I started roughly a few
minutes before the suggested timecode, and I listened to this
episode for an hour and I did not hear what
the clip was. Now, it was fun to listen to,
but I'm just saying I had to then select a
clip to play because I said, I listened to our
show for a fucking hour. I better have something to

(44:08):
show for this. So this is from episode seven, going
back to January two thy and sixteen. So Nick Davis's
voice you will hear here, although it is mostly just
Chris's voice. It's a little bit long. It's a story
that Chris told back in the early days, and.

Speaker 10 (44:26):
I ud this is a clip from President Obama's presidency.

Speaker 1 (44:30):
That's wild, So.

Speaker 4 (44:31):
I'm gonna set it up quickly because it is a
slightly longer clip. But this is Chris retelling the story
of when he lived in an apartment and had a
downstairs neighbor who first complained about Chris playing music, then
complained about Chris finger picking very quietly on his guitar
because he was trying to be a polite neighbor and

(44:52):
not play music. And then this neighbor shows up a
third time and invades Chris's personal space in a way
that it'll make your blood boil the way that it
did for me back in twenty sixteen.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
It's a traumatizing day.

Speaker 5 (45:04):
Here we go, let's hear it.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
And the third time he comes up, what is that?
And I said, I'm straight up just turning pages on
I'm reading in the living room and he says, no,
I hear moaning, what are you talking about?

Speaker 7 (45:19):
I'm laying it down.

Speaker 1 (45:20):
And then he says, do you have a do you
have a girl in there or something? And I say, no,
I know I'm here by myself. I'm literally just sitting
on that couch flipping a magazine.

Speaker 10 (45:31):
See you've told this story before, and I legitimately every
time you tell it, think more and more that this
dude was trying to see if you wanted to hook up.

Speaker 7 (45:39):
Or a magazine or a magazine is.

Speaker 1 (45:42):
Still comes up about once a month, So this is
just adding to my question does he want to hook up?

Speaker 10 (45:49):
Because he took three swings in one day, come up
once a month going like what's up?

Speaker 7 (45:55):
Yeah, well he was hoping.

Speaker 1 (45:56):
You're like, oh no, I'm not even in.

Speaker 8 (45:59):
You have a mirror, you know what's going on there?

Speaker 2 (46:03):
You blame him?

Speaker 8 (46:04):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (46:04):
I don't blame him.

Speaker 8 (46:05):
I don't blame him.

Speaker 1 (46:06):
See the flagsman biceps?

Speaker 8 (46:08):
All right?

Speaker 1 (46:09):
So he comes up and he asks if I have
a girl moaning? And I say no, there's nobody. He's like,
I hear you having sex. I hear you.

Speaker 5 (46:14):
Are you watching porn?

Speaker 1 (46:15):
And he looks at and he looks and he sees
my computer on my table there and he says, that's
you're watching porn on there?

Speaker 9 (46:21):
Are you?

Speaker 1 (46:21):
When he starts stepping in to go look to see
if I'm looking at porn, and I stop him at
the door and I say, hey, man, what are you doing?

Speaker 7 (46:26):
Wait watch porn at house?

Speaker 1 (46:30):
I definitely am not watching porn. And he says, oh no,
I could hear I could hear it. I can hear
you watching porn? And oh the girl just moaning and
he starts moaning and like I just see like the
blinds of my neighbor's windows just just flipping down, like
what's going on? What's going on in there? And he
starts making this huge deal and I'm just heated and
I just say, hey, go away. And since then, about

(46:53):
once a month, maybe sometimes twice a month, he says,
I hear your TV turn it down?

Speaker 7 (46:56):
I hear you.

Speaker 8 (46:57):
Does you walk upstairs to do that?

Speaker 5 (46:59):
Are you? Are you?

Speaker 1 (47:00):
Are you drumming on your on your coffee table? I
can hear that?

Speaker 8 (47:03):
Does he walk upstairs to do this?

Speaker 1 (47:04):
Yes?

Speaker 8 (47:05):
You have hardwood floors or carpet? Carpet? Okay, this guy's
trying to fuck you, Chris.

Speaker 1 (47:12):
So long story short, we had sex and it was
no first off. Thanks for that clip, Matt and that guy.

Speaker 4 (47:20):
Mister wonderfil because I don't know if I would have
heard that story as well.

Speaker 8 (47:25):
Thanks Matt.

Speaker 1 (47:27):
Yeah, I think that guy like he ruined my like
he lived below me for about two years after that incident, right,
and my just it was like I wouldn't I would
walk silently, it soundently, could in socks everywhere you dread.

Speaker 2 (47:45):
Going home.

Speaker 1 (47:46):
I hated going home, like any noise I made. It's
like he was waiting for me to come up and complain.
And he was the worst.

Speaker 8 (47:57):
He was.

Speaker 1 (47:57):
Just though I couldn't want to watch TV on low
with subtitles on, I couldn't even enjoy my own space
because it's.

Speaker 2 (48:04):
Come a long way since then.

Speaker 3 (48:06):
I mean, at some point, do you just stop answering
the door, like did you just answer it every time
you like okay?

Speaker 1 (48:13):
Well you just do like okay, and then you know,
you turn down the producer Fader Dawson knows and then
just uh and go about your day. Now. The the
weird part of that is when I finally move out
and I leave that place, I've packed everything up, I'm
on my last trip getting out of there, so I've

(48:35):
turned in the key and I am now leaving and
I will never be back there again. He's waiting outside
for me and I drive. I'm driving out of the
driveway and he stops me and uh and I rolled
down the window go yeah, and he's like, are you
moving away? And I see you, like, oh, where are
you going? And it's like oh and he's like, oh,

(48:56):
so where do you work? What do you do now?
He wants he was just being the nicest guy, like
the most chill dude. And I was like, this is insane.
You're an insane man. You were insane. But yeah, so
we hung out. We've been hanging out a few times
after that. We were like, he was best man at
my wedding and we've lift ever play ever after. Uh no,

(49:19):
I mean I've never seen him again, and but I
do think about just what a what a crazy guy
was he.

Speaker 4 (49:23):
He That's just wow that he he went up to
your he was going to go up to your computer
and prove that you had poorn on.

Speaker 1 (49:30):
He stuck his foot in that he like he was
trying to walk in my apartment, and he insulted my
guitar playing Like not only was I being loud, but
he's like, hey, I'm a musician, I played piano. You're
terrible it's like you're just playing the same chords over
and over again.

Speaker 10 (49:46):
And I'll respect to Billy Joel, but if you play piano,
I'm not a lot of people who played piano I
would classify as musicians.

Speaker 1 (49:58):
I'm saying I of the other piano. But I completely disagree,
And I hope you're enjoying.

Speaker 8 (50:05):
Your controversial take.

Speaker 1 (50:06):
I stand by and and he starts mimicking, mocking me,
like in the doorway of like playing guitar, and I
believe his impression was this, you sound like this and
just air guitar, and.

Speaker 5 (50:25):
She was a bit more than air guitar.

Speaker 1 (50:27):
Oh my god, everyone hurt this this guy. So you've
you've traumatize. It's happening again. But yeah, fun neighbor, fun
guy after that, real real cool. Anyway, that was just
the same. Remind me, all right, why don't go around
the work get of plugs and it starts some uh
some Patreon recording and because we got we got flickings,

(50:51):
we got Chad's I mean, I I just read Final
Destination Bloodlines, I got I got some stuff to talk
talk about. So, speaking of spoilers too, Dawson has to
explain himself to Gary so we we will talk about
that during Patreon and I'll go around the horts of Kaitlyn.
What do you want to plug? Before you get out
of here?

Speaker 3 (51:10):
Just falling about me and my dad's podcast release an
episode today where he talks about getting killed. His character
getting killed in Alien three includes a phone call with
director David Fincher in which he told him to go
fuck himself.

Speaker 1 (51:25):
So, but who told you? Wait?

Speaker 8 (51:28):
Hold on, yeah, class clarify that.

Speaker 7 (51:30):
My dad told David Fincher to go fuck himself.

Speaker 3 (51:33):
Uh, this was long before you know, he was the
guy who directed seven and the Social Network and one
Academy Awards.

Speaker 7 (51:39):
But that definitely did happen.

Speaker 3 (51:40):
So if you want to that story, go check out
our episode this week.

Speaker 1 (51:44):
Was your dad in seven or Social Network?

Speaker 3 (51:47):
That would have been fun if you. I don't know
if he would have fit into the Social Network as
much as Seven.

Speaker 1 (51:52):
Kids.

Speaker 8 (51:54):
People really runs in the bean bloodline.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
Oh it does. Yeah, that's right. So it's not your fault, Klein.
It's just it's your instinct that your natural dad. It's
what beans do. Yeah, all right, Uh, just one about everybody, Matt,
what about you? Uh?

Speaker 5 (52:11):
I say?

Speaker 4 (52:11):
Check out our Patreon patreon dot com slash water Cooler.
It's five bucks a month. And listen, here's what I'm saying.
Just try for one month. If you don't like it,
then stop, but just try it for one month. We're
not asking for more than five bucks. Probably won't like it,
you know, you probably won't even want to go for
more more than one month.

Speaker 1 (52:29):
Matt's doing so many tactics right now. He's using so
many tech. First, he started with just do one month,
hoping that they'll just forget and they just stay subscribed,
and then he and then you, and then then he
abandoned it and just went straight to reverse psychology. It's
he's a marketing genius.

Speaker 7 (52:45):
Well, I'll piggyback on that.

Speaker 3 (52:46):
Speaking of Patreon, there is going to be another movie
club coming up, and it is my pick. And I
forgot that I had selected the movie before we started
this episode. So, as you all are aware, I am
very fond of this video game called Hell Divers. It's
a great video game in which you just blast aliens
and specifically bugs alien bugs. And we are reverting back

(53:12):
to the classic where it all started. The movie that
I compare Hell Divers to it is Starship Troopers.

Speaker 2 (53:18):
Nice.

Speaker 1 (53:19):
Oh baby, it's been a minute. I mean there's that,
but I've seen yeah, straight, there's a knife through the
palm the uh dude. And I saw that movie in
theaters And what year did that come out? N nineteen

(53:39):
ninety seven, So I was like eleven years old and
I saw that in theaters and it changed me.

Speaker 7 (53:46):
I remember the movies.

Speaker 1 (53:47):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying on the big screen. Yeah,
we'll talk. Let's talk about Patreon story.

Speaker 3 (53:53):
The first time I watched it probably around nineteen ninety
seven or eight as well, when I was like seven
or eight years old.

Speaker 1 (53:59):
So changes you, all right? So started a good movies.
Good pick Klein. I'm excited. Uh now, Dawson.

Speaker 2 (54:07):
So I'm at the ice House June twenty.

Speaker 6 (54:10):
First show is called Home by nine, So it's an
early show on a Saturday night, and you can get
tickets at the ice House website or you can follow
me at Dos Angeles. What you guys already know?

Speaker 1 (54:23):
Yeah, just following out his name and then Gary, Oh
my god, Gary, what can we plug for you?

Speaker 10 (54:32):
I would like to plug friends warning friends about spoilers.
I'm not entirely why it was specifically done to one
friend and not to the other. I definitely did not
almost crash my car, but yeah, look out for a friend.
I mean, it's just a text. If only there's a
group thread that included all of your friends and you
could just send the text there.

Speaker 6 (54:52):
I think I think that that's a really good way
to say it. Man, I think that that anger is
well pushed out in the right areas, like kaylin and
and Chris.

Speaker 1 (55:03):
Kay specifically, why isn't me? I will explain why your
fault in the next episode. In the next episode, you knew. Hey, hey, guys,
guys like it was coming coming.

Speaker 5 (55:15):
I don't know what either. If you're talking about I
don't like it.

Speaker 1 (55:17):
I'll explain it. I'll explain the next episode. I'm I'm
an expert conflict mediator. I was actually in the conflict
mediation club in high school, so I know how to
handle this.

Speaker 8 (55:27):
Oh for the rest of us.

Speaker 10 (55:29):
Bro.

Speaker 1 (55:33):
Wow wow.

Speaker 2 (55:37):
Wow wow.

Speaker 1 (55:42):
It was fun. It was after you know, it was
what's all we did it during school. It was after school.
We'd stick around for an extra two hours after school
and do it. It wasn't like so I still learned everything,
all right, So uh, I.

Speaker 4 (55:53):
Will go that CMC tattoo on your arm right here.
