Speaker 1 (00:11):
Hey, welcome to water Cooler. Ah.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Yes, this wonderful, wonderful podcast where I Chris Locks. I
want to kick it with my Corola digital buds of
yesteryear with me today. All the way in Austin, Texas,
we have Matt Fondelier.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Hey brother, Hey Matt.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
And then all the way in Long Beach, California, like myself,
it's kayleb Bean going on, hey, kid's good to see
you again.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Good to see you too.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
And a nice weekend together. Yeah it's fun. And then
well weekend it was a Saturday, but you know. And
then speaking of weekends, back from Las Vegas, Nevada, in
one piece, it's mister Gary Smith Hattie Patna.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Oh yes, so Gary.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Although to be clear, it was a Wednesday, not exactly a.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Week a weeknd.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
Never stopped you before.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That'll be important later. You know.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I worked with this this lady at Macaroni Grill who
when I when I was a waiter there and she
was she was a waitress, and she was a lot
older like this is like her, like I think she
was retiring, but she just wanted up her Funzi's job
or something.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
He's like, yeah, I'll be a.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Waitress so I looked at her for a wisdom every
once in a while, because she's lived a whole life.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
She thought somebody who was in their sixties and worked
at Macaroni Grill with wise, Hey, you never know, you
never know where you're going to get it from. All right,
fair enough? And it was.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
It was strictly just based on the years lived. Sure,
I mean she she had that going forward versus me,
as far as.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
I will agree that anyone at that age is much
wiser than a teenager.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Yeah, that was twenty one, but it's fine. Sorry, the
timeline up.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
Also, this woman wasn't sixty. She was probably like forty two.
She's probably like our age right now. But Chris was
so old.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah, it's old lady over the hill. That could be
very true. Oh that makes you sad. I'll call more
on that later too. But I remember, I remember her.
You're telling me some I was having a bad day something,
Some stuff was happening probably that day that maybe I
wasn't getting tipped very well when I thought I deserved it,
(02:30):
or maybe the food wasn't coming out of whatever it was. Things,
things that were just upsetting.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Man broke when you wrote your name upside down on
the table.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Oh, I never broke. I was very good at that. Yeah,
I've had a thousand. When I wrote my name upside down,
she told me, Hey, you having a rough day. I said,
I forgot her name already, but we'll call her like
Agnes or something. Yes, Agnes forty two year old as.
Speaker 5 (02:57):
Yeah, born in nineteen ninety one.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Yeah, today's not going my way. And she pulls me aside.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
She goes, Chris, let me tell you something about bad
days and good days in any day.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
A new day could start any time you want. So
start a new day right now. And then she pulled
out some cocaine and show that was a wild night
after that we didn't see.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
But yeah, so Gary, your weekend can be whenever, whenever
you want it to be.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
And I gotta be honest, that's why you mentioned all that.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Okay, Yeah, I like girl.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
Yeah, I like the story that Chris told me because
that proposed to my my Wednesday in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Because I got up early.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
I I well, first, first, I worked very late. I
implored the people around me, like, hey, I have a
shot here, get away for twenty four hours. I've not
had a day off in one hundred days. This is
good for all of us if I go away and
detach for twenty four hours. So like, for the love
of God, write me stories in advance, get me like
(04:12):
the things that I need so that I can be
done with work and enjoy my twenty four hours. And
to the credit of my coworkers, especially one in particular,
you know, they really did.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
They stepped up. They gave me all the pieces I need.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
So I stayed up very late on Tuesday night and
I got like the whole day done for the next day,
and I sort of scheduled it all out, and I
wrote my newsletter, and I got up early, and I
grabbed my stuff, and I jumped my car and I
headed to Chris's greatest, greatest thing Chris has ever turned
me on to, which is Longbeach Airport. Parked my car,
walked in about an hour and fifteen minutes before my flight,
(04:46):
sat down at the bar, ordered a drink, fired up
my laptop, put the finishing touches on my newsletter, and
hit schedule and it said scent and that goes to
forty five thousand people and can't be undone.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
And I deleted it as fast.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Yes, I humanly could, knowing for sure that there was
no way to have stopped it, that it was done,
and it had gone to everyone like eight ten hours early,
and I was going to look like a complete idiot. Luckily,
by some grace of God, it did in fact elite.
That meant that I had to start the whole newsletter
over from zero, but it was still less of a
disaster than if it had sent to everybody at eight
(05:20):
in the morning, when every day it sends it four
in the afternoon. So I started at the airport. I
rebuilt the newsletter and not the end of the world,
finished that up right before my plane boarded, hit schedule,
and put my bag in my laptop by my backpack,
loaded up a podcast, and got on the flight Blue
to Vegas. I got there and there's been a giant
group chat going on in WhatsApp for weeks about this
(05:41):
bachelor party, and I've largely been staying out of it
because I'm kind of the outsider here.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Like there's on the list of like.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Forty five dudes that were included, I recognize one name,
and I sort of got the impression that he was
probably not going to be joining, And so the only
person that I was going to really know in Earnest
was going to be the bachelor of and from high school.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
So I've been ignoring this group chat.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
But I get there and everyone's getting updates on you know,
when they're going to go or you know when they're
going to land, and a lot of people are driving,
so when they're going to get in, And eventually I
get to my room and immediately the news breaks at
the Karen Reid trial. The verdict has come down, and
word comes out from all of my coworkers at LA
mag like, we need a story up about this right
(06:24):
this second. So I go to my hotel room and
I'm just sitting there and I'm waiting for the piece
to be written, and somebody jumps into the group chat
and goes, yo, Gary, are you at the hotel? And
I said, yes, this name that I've never heard before,
this person I don't know. And he was like, well,
I want to get lunch. Have you had lunch? And
I said no, I haven't, but I need to be
in my room for like ten more minutes to post
(06:45):
this story and then if you want to meet for lunch,
let's go. Random stranger and he was like, okay, this
is tell me when you're done, do it. Tell me
when you're done. I'm wearing American flag board shorts and
a white shirt. I'll meet you at the bottom of
the lot of the elevators. And I went, all right, man,
let's let's go. I'm wearing gray Nike. He's a white
shirt and shorts, you know. So I told him. When
I was done, I posted my story. I rolled the
(07:05):
dice to text my wife, and I said, I'm going
to have lunch with a total stranger. This is either
going to be the greatest thing in the world or
the worst disaster ever. But I'm going outside my comfort zone,
you know, let's go. So I went down met this dude.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Turned out to be fast friends by the time lunch
was over, and a few more guys trickled in at
the end of our lunch like it was.
Speaker 5 (07:26):
Clear he was wearing American flag shorts. Yeah, shit, I
just known you guys are going to get along.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
I will say Matt. When he described what he was wearing,
I loosened quite a bit.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
But if this dude's in Vegas on a Wednesday looking
to meet up with a strange dude, who will we
have a friend in common but like don't know each other,
and he's rocking American flag border short It's like this,
I think this is going to be okay.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
You should respond, Oh cool, I'll be the guy in
a thong.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
What happens?
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Well, I was so my social anxiety was so high
that I was not making jokes at that time frame.
But as it turned out, like that dude and I
got along really well at lunch. I think we'll probably
be friends, you know, outside of the larger group going forward.
And so by the time that lunch was over, the
number of people that I felt that I knew at
this party had doubled. So I had like my my friend,
(08:16):
but he's kind of the center of attention for all
the twenty five to three guys, and then I had
this other dude, so that was like really really nice,
and we all then went to the pool and everyone
started we drank it lunch and then everyone to the
pool and started drinking, and then to Chris's point about
a new day starting at any given moment, then I
looked at my phone and the Lakers had been sold,
and it was we just sorry about this right away.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Back to the room, I was like, God, damn it.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
So I go back to the room, sit there, wait
for that story to be written, post that, put it
on Instagram, put it on all this socials whatever. Then
I go to meet back up with the guys at
the pool. I come down. I get halfway to the
pool and they're like, where are you going. There's a
whole group of these dudes who I like, start to
recognized faces and they're like, we're going back up to
myles room.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Okay. So we started going back up.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
There and hanging out and everyone was just chilling, having
beers and stuff.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
You had your pool floaties on too. That must have
been really pointy for you.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Well, I will say Matt that when we first went
to the pool, I just had regular shorts on. I
was not wearing board shorts as smart as my lunch companion.
So I when I went back to my room, switched
into my board shorts. So now as we're I'm being
told no more pool, I'm just now living my life
in board shorts.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
I'm like, oh God, well.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Did the pool have like a liner guide to check
checking because you just went your shorts?
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Oh I did go on my shorts. Okay, yeah, I
did go on my shorts liner check. There was no
liner check.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
No there was. There was a metal detector, but no
liner check.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
Now you neglected the fact that you also chimed in
on our podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Well all of this, I was going to get there,
So then, oh, you haven't even gotten there. I go
back to the.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Room and I'm hanging out partying with these guys for
another two and a half hours, and I look at
my phone for some reason, and mostly to make sure
that my life is you know, does not need me
for something. And there is a text from Mark saying
we recorded two Angry Men two hours ago.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Why isn't it up yet? Oh my god, damn it.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
So back to my room to download and then re
upload the other podcast that Mark does with Harvey Levin.
And while that was uploading, it became time for the podcast,
and I just said, screw it. If I'm sitting here,
why wouldn't I join for a few minutes. So I
joined you guys and that was fun. And then I
made myself late for dinner as a result of that,
(10:30):
which whatever, and I joined them about fifteen minutes late
at a sushi restaurant called Catch, and because I was
the last one there, everyone was already seated when I
got there. Because the party was so big, we were
split up into like three tables, and I was put
at a table with three four guys that I didn't know.
One of them immediately like got up. I hope not
because I sat down, But he got up and went.
(10:52):
Probably probably he never he never returned, but that that brings.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Me to my Shae gearat.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Shortly after I sat down, the waiter came and around
the table, one guy said, has anyone ever been to Catch?
And the three other guys were like no, and he
was like and we were like, have you ever been
to Catch? And he was like, well, only the ones
in Miami Vegas, La. And he started listing off like
all these different locations of this restaurant that he'd been to,
which I think he thought was making him sound cool.
(11:21):
To me, it was making him seem a little something,
but whatever. So we all we all sort of agreed like,
all right, well, if you have traveled the world to
go to locations of this restaurant, then you here, sir,
are deemed to order for the whole table. We'll do
it family style and it'll be great. And before I
got there, the gentleman who had disappeared apparently ordered a
(11:43):
drink and they brought it in a catch embossed flask.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Oho and so.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
They brought the drink. This made me think of you, Matt.
They brought the drink in this flask and then opened
it and poured it into a glass in front of
him at the table, and then so set the flask down,
and at the end of dinner when everyone stood up,
it became a parent No one was going to take
that flask. So I said, well, there's my souvenir for
the night. And then we went back to the room
and hung out for a while. That was the last
time I was interrupted by Mark. We all sat there
(12:12):
and hung out. We were going to Encore Beach Club,
which apparently didn't open until ten thirty, and there was
an agreement made that we were going to look like
dweeds if we were there at ten thirty. So we
were waiting ten forty five to get the car head
over there and be there at eleven fifteen. And you
know what, I supported that decision because I did not
want to be sitting there at ten to fifteen, like
can we come into the club, Like.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
That's not a.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Club time for you guys, you're paid fifteen you a
line first, come on.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
Yeah, but like part of the swag is like the
line is already there and what you get in like
you're buying a huge table, so like you go past
all the people that are waiting in line.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Oh, that's sure, you had the table reserved.
Speaker 4 (12:50):
But as it turned out, that was not as you know,
cut and dry as it should have been. It took
us about fifteen minutes, but we got our We got
in and we got our table, and a few guys
went in the pool. And if you guys posted up
at the at the table, at the table, I will
say it was a holiday the next day, so I
was somewhat hopeful. But the clientele on a Wednesday night
(13:11):
is not what it is on a Friday or Saturday night.
My experience it was it was doing far between as
far as as lookers, but it was a great night.
And then for some reason at one am, I looked
at my phone and I had a text five minutes
ago from Mark asking me why something was like this
on the website. And I flew into a rage, and
(13:34):
I just started rage texting people that I work with
that I knew we're asleep, but I just couldn't help myself.
I just you know, But I got over that eventually.
Speaker 5 (13:46):
Well, it sounds like a super relaxing twenty four hours.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
What I kept piping over and over again was twenty
four hours. Twenty four hours is too much to ask.
Twenty four hours and one hundred days like that is
too much to ask. I got all of my work done,
and like there needs to be more things than need
to come up at one in the morning.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
So whatever.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Yeah, and Agnes also told me the news cycle never sleep,
so watch.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Out for that.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
Yeah, Agnes has been right about several things in this
h in this scenario. So we raged until about three
and then uh we went back to the Uh.
Speaker 5 (14:19):
When you say raged until three, is this you still
angry for two more hours?
Speaker 4 (14:24):
The other kind of raging kind of raging, And then
we all went back to a to the communal like
big room that everyone was sharing at about three point
thirty by the time we got in the car and
got back there, and I sat down and a few
other guys sat down, and then somebody said a sentence
that I'm not going to repeat here, and my reaction
to that sentence was it is time for me to
(14:45):
go to bed, and I stood up there, god damn room,
as fast as I fucking could. And I will tell
you that the next morning I was looking better off
than about eighty percent of the guys. So I think
I made the right decision there. And that was pretty
much the trip.
Speaker 5 (14:57):
Man.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
We had.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
We had breakfast, and then all the guys that were
go I went to the river portion of the trip
all took off.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
I went back to my room. I had gotten a
late checkout because there was a suggestion that people might
stay in Vegas a little later that day, and I
didn't want to miss out on anything. And uh, I
just started working and just worked all the way up
until my flight flew drove to the airport and flew home,
and it was It was a rough next day or two,
but it's all worth it, damn An.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Look, it sounds like you had a good time. I'm
glad you're able to squeeze as much fun as you
could into those little pockets of fun time between the
crazy news cycle and work and people demanding of your
time of you, and dude, that stressed me out.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
I'm like, yeah, I got I got the tingles right now,
you know, five six new days started in that twenty
four hours.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
So yeah, a wise woman.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Yeah, but you think of many days you loss at
the other end, you got to you gotta watch out
for that, the work life balance. Man, I'm worried about
you a little bit, but yeah, look, but you do
good work, and so you know, they try. See obviously
the twenty four hour Vegas trips are I've done them.
I've done it twice. They're there. Yeah, there, it's a lot,
(16:10):
it's a lot. I remember one time I was with Mikey,
my the guy plays the drums in my band, and
these two other guys and we were we were just
at in Mikey's backyard just playing like whiffle ball or something,
and it was that it was that time of your
life where people ask you what are you doing today
and you're like, oh, like, I haven't had days like
(16:31):
that a long time.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
And yeah, that is if you're going to do the
twenty four hour Vegas trip, that is the way to
do it is to do it at that portion of
your life, and preferably on a day where there is
no work the next day. Right, I don't buy it's
the mid week, you know, work week twenty four hour
trip to Vegas.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
So I remember we're just playing like we're playing baseball
in Mikey's back, I said whiffle ball, but it was
baseball and uh and we're just like, oh, what do
you guys want to do, and so much like, oh,
we should just go to Vegas tonight, and like ha ha,
and then like three four pitches later, it just started
getting worse. Here's like, oh my, I think we can.
Why don't we Let's just get in the car and
(17:07):
go to Vegas. No place to stay, no place to yeah,
no place to stay. We'll, we'll, we'll, we'll book one on
the way over. Let's just get in the car and go.
So we jump into uh my buddy Jason's I think,
what did he drive? Like a Volkswagen whatever? But it
was a stick, so he would for some reason. We
went into his car and he's the only one out
of the four of us that could drive a stick.
So it's like, all right, dude, that's quite the commitment
(17:28):
you're making already that that you were driving both ways.
But fine, So we get in the car and about
three to four hours in, I'm in the back with
this guy Steven and and he's on the he's on
a cell phone, and this is what the conversations going, like, no, baby, no,
we're just going for tonight. No you can't, No, we
(17:50):
can't do that. Yeah, okay, fine, fine, I'll have him.
Okay we will fine, I'll have him do it. Okay, yeah, yeah,
we'll be back soon. Okay, love it bye, And then
he just it's just silenced for like thirty seconds. We
all know what's coming.
Speaker 6 (18:07):
Or the other three guys are just seating like this kidnapping,
We're weird. We just passed, like where if we haven't
just passed the state line, we're about to pass it
any minute.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Now, what are you talking about? Dude?
Speaker 5 (18:20):
So he's getting on the next flight home. There's no
way you guys turned around.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Did you hear him say that this is the part
of your life where you can just decide to go
do something that is not I have flight money time
of your life. This is fucking come swoop me time
of your life.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
So he's explaining that his uh, his girlfriend is upset
that they went, and he's like, guys, we have to
turn around. And now he's just convincing and Jason just
driving like Nope, not gonna happen. And then now we're
all trying to like convince like, hey, do you know
it's not that bad, dude, Like you know, what is
(19:00):
she doing anyway?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Why she wants you to come home? Where do you think?
Like why do you have to listen to her? Yeah?
Girls aren't that great? We have to be going. Why
are you listening to her?
Speaker 2 (19:09):
What is she doing? Why does she need you here?
You know she's with you know, Jason's girl, then girlfriend Elizabeth.
They're just hanging out at the pool in the chracuzzi tonight,
Like what are we doing? We could do whatever we want,
let's just go just one night. It's like, I don't know, guys,
I got it.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
You know. And it was just a bunch of just calling.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
And that was the most awkward because I didn't really
know Steven that well so and I'm in the back
seat with him, so now I'm having to explain to
him just how life works, and you know, telling him like, hey,
you know, your day could start anytime.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
I think a wise woman.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
A new day could start anytime, and convinced him to
do it, but he was kind of like a wet
towel the entire trip just giveing.
Speaker 5 (19:52):
So he did actually make it all the way through.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
He made it all the way through, stuck around, Did
you have a girlfriend?
Speaker 1 (19:58):
The next weekend? Did go mad?
Speaker 7 (19:59):
Was?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
But like kind of basically just yes he did, but
but basically stayed in the hotel room for most of it,
just on the phone.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
All Right, we're gonna we're gonna go we're gonna go out.
We're gonna do our thing, and you got you deal
with your thing. But that's that. So that was the
first twenty four hour trip.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Are they still together?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
I think they're married with kids, so worked out?
Speaker 5 (20:20):
Wow, you want to stay there? First and last names
again for the show.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
I never stayed the last name. I stated one first
name and it could be real, could be fake. It
was real shows. I know a lot of your friends.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
And then the second Vegas Toy four our Vegas Vagas trip.
You know how I go to Vegas every or I
used to every year with my fantasy baseball team, my
fantasy baseball leagues right now, my fancy baseball team. That'd
be pretty sweet though, my fantasy.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Me and all these major League Baseball majall.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
So we every year we go at the end of
the season and then just just as an excuse to
go and and that the rules we had were the
losers of the league had to drive.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
I lost. I got last place. But here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
I had to be at a wedding on that Sunday,
so I could only go for Saturday and then and
then I'm out, I'm out to.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Go to these wedding. I actually I had to go
two weddings that day.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
But anyway, So I so I tell them, the guys,
I'm only gonna be there for twenty four hours.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Max.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
I'm like, all right, well, so I can't drive because
I'm gonna I'm gonna have to catch a flight home
to make these weddings. So John, my friend John deb
who Gary knows, He's like, all right, I'll drive. So
we all pile in his car and then we're getting
gas and I just remember, I'm like, oh man, Chris
really got out of this time. And to Drive's like, yeah, wait,
(21:51):
you did get last place. You're driving my car. And
so that was so that the punishment starts at the beginning.
So now I had to drive his car up till Ways.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
And I asked, because if I had been in that car,
and I'm in that league. You're paying for the gas
as well.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
I don't even remember, probably not but that, but think goodness,
you're not our league, or you weren't in that car
because I could see I could see you rallying the
troops here.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
And then we had to do some bets and the
bet I lost.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
I remember, I've lost bets where I've had to wear
high heels for two hours.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
I had to.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
You've also won bets where you wore heels for two hours.
It's kind of weird, you know, you know.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
The first time I lost, But then when I realized
what they could do for me, yea, in my in
my calves, I was like, all right, and.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Your free knights at the Cosmo.
Speaker 5 (22:38):
Yeah's got to pay for those rooms.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Well anyway, so the bet bet, the bad bet in
this one is I had to eat hot sauce, like
the spicy hot sauce off of the Winter's finger.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
That's not so bad, it's.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
Not that bad.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
But who's the friend who's like, and if you lose,
you have to suck it off my finger?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
It was my friends friends with that guy he officiated
my wedding. He got the craziest hot sauce he could find,
and he's like really into like food and everything. And
when he put his he put like one of those
plastic gloves that like guys in like the kitchens wear
like at restaurants.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
This is so humiliated.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
He dipped that. He dipped like his fingers in the air.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
And so then right before we all go out for
the night, he's like, you gotta do it, and he
dipped it, and I had to just just take it,
suck it off right, suck it off his finger in
front of everybody. And it was the spiciest thing I've
ever had, had the hiccups, crying, like just miserable for
like an hour, to the point where and.
Speaker 5 (23:53):
We are only crying and miserable because it was spicy,
not because of the degradation that you just went to,
you know what.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Yeah, you're because that, Yeah it was. It was so
hot and painful, and it was hot. We're staying, some
might argue otherwise. And then so we're we all all
like twelve of us bumped up in this like this
one suite at like the link and and there was
(24:23):
nothing in this suite but one bed and like a.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Hot tub in the middle of the room tub and uh.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
And I just remember going to that hotb just charning
the water on and like out of so and just
dunking my head into the faucet for like ten minutes,
just doing anything to stop this pain and ruined by night.
Had a terrible time in Vegas. End up falling asleep.
There's no pillow. We're all in the same room, so
(24:52):
there are no pillars, are blankets anywhere. So I just
have my hoodie and I put my hoodie on and
I sleep on the just on the straight floor, just
try to get as mu sleeps I can before I
have to wake up early to catch this flight. And
it just the floor just reeks of urine. God, and
I'm just like this sucks.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
You know. I didn't drink. I didn't.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
I didn't drink cause I have to wake up so early.
So I'm just like I'm not even drunk or anything.
I'm just sober and just just had the most miserable
night and then just went to these these two weddings
the next day. And so those are my two twenty
four hour Vegas runs. Wow and both not awesome.
Speaker 5 (25:29):
Calen, do you have any super depressing Vegas stories to share?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
The camaraderie was great, but my my personal experience was
was wasn't very fun.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Kalen and I actually saw each other on Saturday. We did.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Yeah, it was fun.
Speaker 5 (25:43):
We had a good all sucks hot sauce off each
other's fingers or what you know.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Gary was missed, wasn't wasn't one movie. I'm okay with this.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
So it's our friend Pat who worked with Cruel Drinks,
and I'm maybe listening to this.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Oh my no.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
He does this show with Dylan who won the Hunger
Home back in the day. So anyway, he had a
big He had a big shindig where he gets a
stage and he basically just has a few bands played.
Everyone just hangs out in this is extra large backyard
and we and we partied the whole day and it's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Kaitlin went.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
I will say I was supposed to go, but my
wife's office decided to throw a summer Christmas party. So
basically there they'd decided one Christmas party is not enough,
we will do one in June as well. You had
a half Christmas party pretty much pretty much a half
birthday Christmas party, and I was obliged to go to that,
which was nice, but I was bummed when halfway through
(26:40):
Patrick called me and said.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Yo, Bull, Brian just showed up. Where you at? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (26:43):
I was like, I am one hundred miles south of
you and there will be no way I can join.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
Unfortunately it was quite through you and you were missed
because we all thought you were on your way, so
everybody was kind of waiting on you too, like, oh,
it is Gary, cause like I thought I heard he
was coming.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Baby, But yeah, so who was there?
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Can Ball, Brian Brian were there immediately the Nuts the
second that I saw.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
I've never been so jealous to have not gotten punched
at the nuts at that party. God damn it.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Who else? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Great, Yeah, wonderful conversation with an awesome spirits, He and Christy. Yeah,
and of course Kalen was there, Me, Pat, a couple of.
Speaker 7 (27:29):
Them, just Corolla drinks, fans yes to come to the
events and stuff.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
So yeah, it was just nice seeing all the all
these faces that I haven't seen in a while.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
So it was funny. So he called the.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
Day generation Fest because he had all these bands playing.
You know, I'm like, oh, cool, we're gonna have a
bunch of different bands playing all these different generations of music.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
It's like TI die so it's like seventies and like, okay,
so we'll see it all. And then.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Uh, so the first band plays and they're like a
kid like a kiddie band, playing like kids songs.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
I'll talk.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
There's a lot of kids at this, a lot of kids.
So it's like, you know, wheels on the bus and stuff.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
The second band.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Plays and it fucking loved that song.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Dude, it's such a banger.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
It crushes live. Dude.
Speaker 7 (28:10):
You should have seen you should have seen these guys playing.
They had the tambourines, they had like, you know, the blankets,
they had everything going and Chris is just looking at
him going like I can't follow this. Yeah, I can't
follow this entertainment.
Speaker 5 (28:23):
Oh you were gonna play, Chris, I didn't really.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Oh yeah yeah, so we were on the bill too,
so so and then yeah, then it was Seftie Wilder
Tailor's kids band.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
They're in high school. And then uh and then Loxy.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
So headliners headliners slash like it's weird, like we were
the old guys, we're the old generation. And that heard
that hurt a little bit.
Speaker 7 (28:48):
I was standing next to Chris at one point and
he was kind of running the sound for the thing,
and and Mikey walked over when the teenagers were playing,
and he turns Chris and he goes. I think it
was safe to say that this is the strangest billing
that we've ever played before.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
But anyway, it had a great time regardless. All the
bands are great. So the first band, they're called the Beatbuds,
do you guys, Yeah, they're just jamming out wheels on
the bus and like, you know, getting the kids involved,
throwing out tambourines and shakers and like, yeah, I'm looking
at King like they're really working the crowd here. I
don't have any of this stuff. I don't have any
this kind of banter. And then they bring out that parachute,
(29:25):
which we all loved in elementary school, and they're all doing.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
The parachute thing.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
Oh yeah, yeah, geese.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Dude, they really they really brought out the big guns there.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
So that's not fair. That's a prop act.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
It's a prop act, but I mean, well accepted, so
what are you gonna do? But yeah, I had had
a great time at Generation Fest, and do you guys.
Speaker 5 (29:44):
Open or close with Twinkle Twinkle because I know that's
like one of your go to.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
We usually closed with it, but beat Buds played it
so we can across it off our set list.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
No, Matt, you know they closed with all be watching you. Yeah,
we have to do that version. Now. We did play.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
We did play Big pun not didn't get received very well,
but it's fine.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
But that that's the that's the new Might just take
that Joe out of the rotation. Oh no, you.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Know, these guys, I'm gonna I'm gonna run out of
songs here anyway. So it was good though, seeing Kitlin
and everybody, and it's just it was nice. It was
nice being being around these people.
Speaker 7 (30:30):
It was fun watching Chris Uh, you know, kind of
censor the songs that he was playing a little bit.
He's talked before about how he can't play sex and candy, Snacks,
Snacks and candy, and so he's in the middle of
doing Santa Ria and I know the line that's coming
up where he goes and I got something for his
punk ass, And I was like, what's he gonna do?
(30:51):
And he goes, and he goes and I got something
for his punk butt. I started laughing so hard.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
I'm not I say it. I'm gonna say it in
a microphone, Kaitlin. But I a lot of that.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
A lot of those moments were me realizing one second
before it happened, like oh gosh, oh gosha, gosh, what
have I done? So but you know, it was it
was just good scene everybody, And uh, yeah, Gary, you
were you were very much missed.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
So I missed you guys as well. I told you
guys something off the air that happened to me, uh recently,
And I discovered that while it was at the office
Christmas party, so that was not exactly a great day.
I would have given anything to have been with you
guys where you were. So yeah, man, I definitely missed
you guys. And it was devastating when I heard how
(31:38):
many people were ended up attending that are dear to
me and that I haven't seen in far too long.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Oh, by the way, I saw that I was at
the scene of the crime of a Calen's podcast. I
just want toll the uh I saw it in person.
I mean it stripped over it. It was it was
a hazard they had. But then she usually to put
cones up. Klan it wasn't anymore. Oh okay, go ahead later, no,
(32:06):
go ahead.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
Oh.
Speaker 7 (32:08):
So it's funny because on our like YouTube videos, it's
a bunch of people going like, hey, I want to
hear you guys have a discussion about you know, navy
seels and I want to hear It's a lot of
people just throwing out ideas like hey, I want to
hear you talk about this. I want to hear you
talk about that. And one guy was like, I want
to hear you guys have a discussion about cable management.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
I couldn't read this.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
And if Kanen's like, but look see I rounded it. It
looks fine, and there's like two cables. They just have
like a little velcrow tire like just right across the floor.
I'm like, oh my god, dude. But it felt because
I've been seeing it so much in pictures videos and
my nightmares that when I saw it in person, it
it's as if you know, Matt would know this. When
(32:52):
you're in the Universal Studis tram too, when you're seeing
all the cars from the movies that you've been watching,
and they's like, oh they called picture cars picture cars.
You're seeing all the pictures cars like what picture cars
would you see.
Speaker 5 (33:02):
Anywhen I worked there, it was like the Glorean. You
had the Flintstones car, showed you how dated that was.
I'm pretty sure they had one of the fast and
furious cars.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (33:16):
Uh and then uh oh they have like the Jurassic
Park one of the Jurassic Park vans as well.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Okay, the vans are the Jeeps Jeeps?
Speaker 5 (33:23):
No, it was like one of the vans. It wasn't
a jeep.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
Yeah, sorry, I'm not sure I like that universal really anyway.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
So yeah, when you see those cars, it's like it's
awesome to see them, but they're.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
Like, oh they look kind of they go look kind
of smaller in real life.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
It's just like it lacks the magnificence of of seeing
them on the big screen.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
That's what I felt like.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
That looks more like a van than a jeep.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Yeah that yeah, that's right. It's really ruined it. But
I remember saying the cable management is not as bad
when you nearly as bad. Still bothered me. Well, look,
they say the YouTube does add twelve wires.
Speaker 7 (34:07):
It was cleaned up for the party, so it didn't
look nearly as bad than when I'm recording and I
have all the cameras out and running into all the
equipment and stuff.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
That's when it's but.
Speaker 7 (34:18):
Yeah, at this point, like I don't even have a
camera on my cables anymore. I just I took that
camera ankle away from.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
The Oh, just zoomed into your face real tight.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
It's work. I'll take it. I prefer that, Oh, Chris go.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
And then uh oh, so I was watched speaking of
getting old, So I'm watching Game seven last night.
Speaker 5 (34:43):
Basketball. Yeah, yes, man, I just wanted to get it
in before you even asked.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
Matt, what state one?
Speaker 3 (34:50):
Who's playing?
Speaker 7 (34:51):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (34:52):
Boy, I actually do you know who's playing? And I
know who won?
Speaker 6 (34:56):
So oh, yeah, you want to hear I thought, dude,
I believe.
Speaker 5 (35:02):
It was the Oklahoma.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
My question.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
It's much better than I thought you would do.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Yeah. I still don't think that he could follow through
and name the teams.
Speaker 5 (35:18):
But it's the Thunder and the Pacers.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Okay, just enough enough time to google it where Julie's
juice googling in the other room in his ear. Either way, No,
I believe it, dude, so so obviously Okay, see wins.
Congratulations to uh all the bob of boys and Okay,
see and Joe enjoying your yourself. But uh, you know
(35:44):
everyone's talking about Halburton's injury where his achilles injuries.
Speaker 7 (35:49):
Oh man, did that because you could see it?
Speaker 2 (35:54):
I'm not going to did you look at that? I
looked the second I knew it was gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
I looked.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
I just looked away and all they replayed its.
Speaker 7 (36:02):
Know that like you were going to be able to
see it, so you can see your like his leg
like pop and yeah, and it was gross.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Because imagine like a rubber band from like you're going
just going down your leg and then it just snaps
and the thing just like just like just like rolls
right up right.
Speaker 5 (36:20):
You just saw it in your mind, but you described
it in a way that makes me think you did
actually see it.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Oh the theater of my mind, Matt is so effed
up like it all. That's why the wikis are so fun.
It's probably worse what's happening in.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Anyway.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
So I was thinking, like, I think I may have
come to terms because I'm I'm gonna be forty soon.
I think I may have come to terms with all
these Achilles injuries and ACL injuries, especially like like three
superstars had achilles tears in this one playoff alone, this
one playoff series. I mean this the you know playoff
(36:58):
run in the NBA alone, A number zero by the way,
kind of kind of eerie. But I'm just thinking, like
I'm never gonna play basketball again. I don't think I'll
ever play basketball. I mean I was like shoot around,
but I don't think I'll ever play like competitively hard again.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
Like I won't run.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
I'm gonna play like old guy ball where I just
kind of just hang out on the outside and just
and just throw up threes or just like back into
people or whatever, just like real slow. I might even
have to relearn my jump shots to where I bring
the ball all the way behind my head and just
and just toss like that. I look, I'm there, I
(37:37):
get it. I get it now. Like it's like skateboarding.
All the old guys growing up, they would only skate transitions.
They wouldn't really do any aerial stuff. They just kind
of like to cruise around and just stay loaded the ground.
Maybe some slappies on the curb, but that's it.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
They're not doing anything real big or technical. I'm looking
at that now and like, if I ever jump on
a skateboard again, that's the most attract stuff to me.
Speaker 4 (38:00):
Now to your point, there was a very large trampoline
in the backyard of this party that I was at. Well,
you guys were at Patrick's, And at one point I
was standing, wait, was this at.
Speaker 5 (38:12):
The Encore nightclub? I'm getting confused?
Speaker 1 (38:16):
In a backyard of a home in South Orange County.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Can you just imagine like a bunch of bachelors getting
to the club early and are just jumping on the
trampoline before everybody gets there.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Like it's gonna be so much fun.
Speaker 4 (38:29):
I mean, the group with this group, it probably would
have happened if it was on the menu. But I
looked at a couple of guys I was standing with,
who are my age? And I just kind of looked
at the trampoline and said, I don't think you get
me on there with ten thousand dollars in cash right now?
Speaker 5 (38:42):
And they all were like, not a chance in hell.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
Just you get to a certain point, you got to know,
you know your limitations of your age. I think we're there.
Speaker 5 (38:50):
What about diving board?
Speaker 7 (38:52):
Oh hell yeah, I mean if there's a diving board around,
there's no way, I'm not jumping.
Speaker 5 (38:56):
Off that thing. Yeah, the thing.
Speaker 4 (38:58):
Here's the thing, though, I think I would be much
more apt to dive off of like one of those
fixed like Olympic style like diving towers the spring loaded one.
Like I'm not sure that I could go do the
triple triple jump and trust that I'm gonna land on
the end exactly right to be able to.
Speaker 1 (39:14):
Like do a trick. I don't know if I want
that smoke.
Speaker 5 (39:18):
I like, how in your mind the implication is that
you have to do a trick.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Off of the timing board. Yeah, you're getting that much air,
you got do something, something just to.
Speaker 5 (39:31):
A jumping jack, you know, just make sure you close
your legs.
Speaker 4 (39:34):
I guess my point is just the spring loaded diving board,
there's two jumps involved in order to get any real air.
You can't just on those things that were like really
wobbly at the end, so you can't like walk to
the end. You kind of gotta like jump and like
bounce off of it. I don't think I want any
part of that.
Speaker 1 (39:49):
I don't think I've ever jumped off a diving board.
That's the way that you explain.
Speaker 3 (39:52):
It, really, I think that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
They're a rare commodity out here. They're illegal here.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Yeah, so I don't think I really came across any
oh growing up, they were.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
They were around when I was a kid. But you
know you're.
Speaker 5 (40:07):
Telling me after the liner check they wouldn't let you
jump off a diving board.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
No, Well, I mean they send me, they sent me back,
they sent me. There has to be a line, Matt.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
Yeah, I love that, Garret, thank you the Yeah. But
I don't think I've ever done it, So maybe I
want to one day.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
I want to.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
All right, Well, uh, we have a little bit of
time left. I didn't do any comments last week, so
let's do a couple of quick ones before we get
out of here. Club all right, Oh, I forgot Dawson's
not here because he has like a comedy thing, So
a comedy comedy nights all week. So busy, busy boy.
(40:45):
So if you're winning, where Dawson is, that's where he is.
Speaker 1 (40:47):
Oh, and I forgot that.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
As we near the end of this month, we are
pushing the movie club and the meet up into next week.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
But it gives you more time to see the movie,
which is now You see Me.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
Now, Matt, Matt correct me if I'm wrong. They not
come around on the third one and finally named it
Now You Don't.
Speaker 5 (41:05):
The third one is in fact called now you see Me,
Now you Don't.
Speaker 4 (41:08):
Okay, Now I'm sorry if this has said before, I
can't tell, but I became obsessed with this this this
morning when I was getting ready for work. Why is
it not called now You three Me? Gary's right, they've missed.
They missed the boat on now You Don't. They had
a couple options either for now now you see Me
Part two, they just rename it to now You Don't,
(41:30):
the way that Edge of Tomorrow turned in to Live
I Repeat, or Mission Impossible, Dead Reckoning returned to Final Reckoning.
I mean basically any Tom Cruise movie. He just changes
the movie like after they come out. He does it
all the time.
Speaker 2 (41:44):
So yeah, they could, they could. They should just change
it and then yes, Gary, now you three Me? Yeah
it makes so much sense. Yeah they really they really
missed that boat as well. So all right, well anyway.

Speaker 5 (42:42):
Oh, it's the algorithm in action.
Speaker 1 (42:45):
That is exactly right, Matt.
Speaker 2 (42:46):
The plgorithm is still working, it's still moving, it's constantly flowing, growing, showing,
and it worked for Ryan and Nathan. They took a
selfies together and posted in the Facebook group, what a
great night, he says. I did not know there was
another one of us in my city. I also delivered
(43:07):
on my promise to get a fellow Bobo into a
show and buy them a beer if they come down,
and they did it, and I think they're friends for life.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
So there you go. I think they are too, and
I will say that you know, when you're at a bachelor
party like I was at, there's a lot of you know,
making small talk and meeting guys, and the common question
was how do you know the bachelor? And there was
a lot of undergrad business school you know, work together.
Then there were more than more than a few.
Speaker 4 (43:30):
There were four or five guys who were like our
festival buddies, who's met at a festival been friends ever since.
Speaker 1 (43:35):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (43:37):
By the way, Ryan wrote that there's a life hack
for festival workers and that's bringing extra pairs of brand
new socks to change in a halfway through your long day,
if you will.
Speaker 1 (43:45):
Thank you so, thanks, Ry. But that is smart, dude.
There is There is not.
Speaker 2 (43:52):
A lot that of a better feeling than putting out
a fresh, freshly pair of socks. I mean, Kialan hasn't
done it in decades, but but.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
We all everyone else knows.
Speaker 7 (44:03):
They actually just put some some fresh ones on right
before we started the pod, and they're fun and festive
and well they're they're craft mac and cheese socks.
Speaker 5 (44:12):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
I like that.
Speaker 2 (44:15):
I was wondering whether in your step today, like with
the way you're acting, it's the new socks that reeks
of Father's.
Speaker 1 (44:21):
Day gift to me, Kaylen, I think it was birthday, Okay.
Speaker 2 (44:28):
Kevin Bailey says, I'm so happy to hear the mouth
flicks are back.
Speaker 1 (44:33):
So hey, Kevin, me too. And that's all the time
we have for comments.
Speaker 2 (44:39):
I look, I know Joy is anti Gary, but you know.
Speaker 1 (44:43):
Hey, look man, I used to do them with you,
and you know that. You know I used to. I
used to do only one. Just do them again. What
does she know?
Speaker 2 (44:51):
You're this is the pocket, this is just the boys. Okay,
we should be able to let you do mouthlicks.
Speaker 1 (44:56):
Just do it. Okay, she's she's off doing her own thing.
Don't worry about her. All right.
Speaker 2 (45:01):
You're with us now, and it's not the way it works, bro,
don't ruin us for all of us.
Speaker 5 (45:08):
I feel like I'm sitting in the backseat of a
car and away to Las Vegas right now.
Speaker 1 (45:14):
All right?
Speaker 2 (45:14):
Well, look, last last comm comment is someone's asking has
anyone heard and seeing a movie called Simon Birch. It's
in the fifties. It's about a big dwarf but sorry,
it's about a dwarf kid who the town who the
townspeople keep distret guarding the only big name is Jim
Carrey as a narrator.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
It's not a comedy. It's this a Mandela effect.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
And that was Jacob Morales asking it's definitely a movie
I've seen.
Speaker 1 (45:35):
Oh yeah, me too of this movie. Yeah, so there
you go.
Speaker 2 (45:41):
All right, Well, anyway those are comments everybody, thanks for writing,
and we appreciate you. And and I will say, just
some maintenance here.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
I'm sorry about that time. Did you play the intro?
Speaker 5 (45:54):
You did.
Speaker 7 (45:57):
Well?
Speaker 1 (45:58):
Because I have one more thing to say. Yeah, what
are they to say?
Speaker 6 (46:03):
Let me finish, guys, if we're jumping down my throat,
let me do my thing, all right, chill you guys
are just so eager to just get in there, like.
Speaker 1 (46:14):
I have.
Speaker 2 (46:14):
I have a maintenance uh update here, we do have
an AI bot that is just posting questions into our
our group called he's called the Bobo body.
Speaker 7 (46:24):
Like.
Speaker 2 (46:24):
One thing he wrote was just it's just the text,
which cornhole trick is your most Which cornhole trick shot
is your most impressive? Now, these Ai bobo bots, I
mean these AI bots, they I've seen him in others.
They're not but I've seen him in other groups and
they do similar things where they just take all of
(46:45):
like the information from this group since its existence, and
then tries to create they basically engagement farm and just
try to see how much engagement they can make off
a single question. But man, they get me because I
don't lead who writes it first? I'm like, oh, yeah,
that's a good question. Let me think about it. I
should write it. And then, like even in the other groups,
I mean, it's the same thing, like, dang, it's working.
Speaker 1 (47:05):
It's working.
Speaker 5 (47:06):
No, it's not lying.
Speaker 2 (47:10):
Yeah, but I I don't I don't know how to
delete it. So Gary, if you know.
Speaker 5 (47:14):
How, Gary, I will ask again.
Speaker 1 (47:18):
Please Taylor Swift, Ta Taylor Swift, God, damn you?
Speaker 5 (47:25):
All right, damn you.

Chris I'll sign that it's a very fun show.
Speaker 3 (48:52):

Speaker 7 (48:55):
I was just finishing watching a movie and then it
just auto played after the first scene is like, I'm

I was talking about maybe maybe it was like the
Travelers Championship or something like just watching golf at the

Hey, welcome to water Cooler. Ah.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Yes, this wonderful, wonderful podcast where I Chris Locks. I
want to kick it with my Corola digital buds of
yesteryear with me today. All the way in Austin, Texas,
we have Matt Fondelier.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Hey brother, Hey Matt.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
And then all the way in Long Beach, California, like myself,
it's kayleb Bean going on, hey, kid's good to see
you again.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Good to see you too.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
And a nice weekend together. Yeah it's fun. And then
well weekend it was a Saturday, but you know. And
then speaking of weekends, back from Las Vegas, Nevada, in
one piece, it's mister Gary Smith Hattie Patna.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Oh yes, so Gary.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Although to be clear, it was a Wednesday, not exactly a.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Week a weeknd.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
Never stopped you before.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That'll be important later. You know.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I worked with this this lady at Macaroni Grill who
when I when I was a waiter there and she
was she was a waitress, and she was a lot
older like this is like her, like I think she
was retiring, but she just wanted up her Funzi's job
or something.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
He's like, yeah, I'll be a.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Waitress so I looked at her for a wisdom every
once in a while, because she's lived a whole life.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
She thought somebody who was in their sixties and worked
at Macaroni Grill with wise, Hey, you never know, you
never know where you're going to get it from. All right,
fair enough? And it was.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
It was strictly just based on the years lived. Sure,
I mean she she had that going forward versus me,
as far as.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
I will agree that anyone at that age is much
wiser than a teenager.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Yeah, that was twenty one, but it's fine. Sorry, the
timeline up.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
Also, this woman wasn't sixty. She was probably like forty two.
She's probably like our age right now. But Chris was
so old.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah, it's old lady over the hill. That could be
very true. Oh that makes you sad. I'll call more
on that later too. But I remember, I remember her.
You're telling me some I was having a bad day something,
Some stuff was happening probably that day that maybe I
wasn't getting tipped very well when I thought I deserved it,
(02:30):
or maybe the food wasn't coming out of whatever it was. Things,
things that were just upsetting.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Man broke when you wrote your name upside down on
the table.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Oh, I never broke. I was very good at that. Yeah,
I've had a thousand. When I wrote my name upside down,
she told me, Hey, you having a rough day. I said,
I forgot her name already, but we'll call her like
Agnes or something. Yes, Agnes forty two year old as.
Speaker 5 (02:57):
Yeah, born in nineteen ninety one.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Yeah, today's not going my way. And she pulls me aside.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
She goes, Chris, let me tell you something about bad
days and good days in any day.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
A new day could start any time you want. So
start a new day right now. And then she pulled
out some cocaine and show that was a wild night
after that we didn't see.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
But yeah, so Gary, your weekend can be whenever, whenever
you want it to be.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
And I gotta be honest, that's why you mentioned all that.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Okay, Yeah, I like girl.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
Yeah, I like the story that Chris told me because
that proposed to my my Wednesday in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Because I got up early.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
I I well, first, first, I worked very late. I
implored the people around me, like, hey, I have a
shot here, get away for twenty four hours. I've not
had a day off in one hundred days. This is
good for all of us if I go away and
detach for twenty four hours. So like, for the love
of God, write me stories in advance, get me like
(04:12):
the things that I need so that I can be
done with work and enjoy my twenty four hours. And
to the credit of my coworkers, especially one in particular,
you know, they really did.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
They stepped up. They gave me all the pieces I need.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
So I stayed up very late on Tuesday night and
I got like the whole day done for the next day,
and I sort of scheduled it all out, and I
wrote my newsletter, and I got up early, and I
grabbed my stuff, and I jumped my car and I
headed to Chris's greatest, greatest thing Chris has ever turned
me on to, which is Longbeach Airport. Parked my car,
walked in about an hour and fifteen minutes before my flight,
(04:46):
sat down at the bar, ordered a drink, fired up
my laptop, put the finishing touches on my newsletter, and
hit schedule and it said scent and that goes to
forty five thousand people and can't be undone.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
And I deleted it as fast.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Yes, I humanly could, knowing for sure that there was
no way to have stopped it, that it was done,
and it had gone to everyone like eight ten hours early,
and I was going to look like a complete idiot. Luckily,
by some grace of God, it did in fact elite.
That meant that I had to start the whole newsletter
over from zero, but it was still less of a
disaster than if it had sent to everybody at eight
(05:20):
in the morning, when every day it sends it four
in the afternoon. So I started at the airport. I
rebuilt the newsletter and not the end of the world,
finished that up right before my plane boarded, hit schedule,
and put my bag in my laptop by my backpack,
loaded up a podcast, and got on the flight Blue
to Vegas. I got there and there's been a giant
group chat going on in WhatsApp for weeks about this
(05:41):
bachelor party, and I've largely been staying out of it
because I'm kind of the outsider here.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Like there's on the list of like.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Forty five dudes that were included, I recognize one name,
and I sort of got the impression that he was
probably not going to be joining, And so the only
person that I was going to really know in Earnest
was going to be the bachelor of and from high school.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
So I've been ignoring this group chat.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
But I get there and everyone's getting updates on you know,
when they're going to go or you know when they're
going to land, and a lot of people are driving,
so when they're going to get in, And eventually I
get to my room and immediately the news breaks at
the Karen Reid trial. The verdict has come down, and
word comes out from all of my coworkers at LA
mag like, we need a story up about this right
(06:24):
this second. So I go to my hotel room and
I'm just sitting there and I'm waiting for the piece
to be written, and somebody jumps into the group chat
and goes, yo, Gary, are you at the hotel? And
I said, yes, this name that I've never heard before,
this person I don't know. And he was like, well,
I want to get lunch. Have you had lunch? And
I said no, I haven't, but I need to be
in my room for like ten more minutes to post
(06:45):
this story and then if you want to meet for lunch,
let's go. Random stranger and he was like, okay, this
is tell me when you're done, do it. Tell me
when you're done. I'm wearing American flag board shorts and
a white shirt. I'll meet you at the bottom of
the lot of the elevators. And I went, all right, man,
let's let's go. I'm wearing gray Nike. He's a white
shirt and shorts, you know. So I told him. When
I was done, I posted my story. I rolled the
(07:05):
dice to text my wife, and I said, I'm going
to have lunch with a total stranger. This is either
going to be the greatest thing in the world or
the worst disaster ever. But I'm going outside my comfort zone,
you know, let's go. So I went down met this dude.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Turned out to be fast friends by the time lunch
was over, and a few more guys trickled in at
the end of our lunch like it was.
Speaker 5 (07:26):
Clear he was wearing American flag shorts. Yeah, shit, I
just known you guys are going to get along.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
I will say Matt. When he described what he was wearing,
I loosened quite a bit.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
But if this dude's in Vegas on a Wednesday looking
to meet up with a strange dude, who will we
have a friend in common but like don't know each other,
and he's rocking American flag border short It's like this,
I think this is going to be okay.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
You should respond, Oh cool, I'll be the guy in
a thong.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
What happens?
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Well, I was so my social anxiety was so high
that I was not making jokes at that time frame.
But as it turned out, like that dude and I
got along really well at lunch. I think we'll probably
be friends, you know, outside of the larger group going forward.
And so by the time that lunch was over, the
number of people that I felt that I knew at
this party had doubled. So I had like my my friend,
(08:16):
but he's kind of the center of attention for all
the twenty five to three guys, and then I had
this other dude, so that was like really really nice,
and we all then went to the pool and everyone
started we drank it lunch and then everyone to the
pool and started drinking, and then to Chris's point about
a new day starting at any given moment, then I
looked at my phone and the Lakers had been sold,
and it was we just sorry about this right away.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Back to the room, I was like, God, damn it.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
So I go back to the room, sit there, wait
for that story to be written, post that, put it
on Instagram, put it on all this socials whatever. Then
I go to meet back up with the guys at
the pool. I come down. I get halfway to the
pool and they're like, where are you going. There's a
whole group of these dudes who I like, start to
recognized faces and they're like, we're going back up to
myles room.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Okay. So we started going back up.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
There and hanging out and everyone was just chilling, having
beers and stuff.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
You had your pool floaties on too. That must have
been really pointy for you.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Well, I will say Matt that when we first went
to the pool, I just had regular shorts on. I
was not wearing board shorts as smart as my lunch companion.
So I when I went back to my room, switched
into my board shorts. So now as we're I'm being
told no more pool, I'm just now living my life
in board shorts.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
I'm like, oh God, well.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Did the pool have like a liner guide to check
checking because you just went your shorts?
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Oh I did go on my shorts. Okay, yeah, I
did go on my shorts liner check. There was no
liner check.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
No there was. There was a metal detector, but no
liner check.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
Now you neglected the fact that you also chimed in
on our podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Well all of this, I was going to get there,
So then, oh, you haven't even gotten there. I go
back to the.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Room and I'm hanging out partying with these guys for
another two and a half hours, and I look at
my phone for some reason, and mostly to make sure
that my life is you know, does not need me
for something. And there is a text from Mark saying
we recorded two Angry Men two hours ago.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Why isn't it up yet? Oh my god, damn it.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
So back to my room to download and then re
upload the other podcast that Mark does with Harvey Levin.
And while that was uploading, it became time for the podcast,
and I just said, screw it. If I'm sitting here,
why wouldn't I join for a few minutes. So I
joined you guys and that was fun. And then I
made myself late for dinner as a result of that,
(10:30):
which whatever, and I joined them about fifteen minutes late
at a sushi restaurant called Catch, and because I was
the last one there, everyone was already seated when I
got there. Because the party was so big, we were
split up into like three tables, and I was put
at a table with three four guys that I didn't know.
One of them immediately like got up. I hope not
because I sat down, But he got up and went.
(10:52):
Probably probably he never he never returned, but that that brings.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Me to my Shae gearat.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Shortly after I sat down, the waiter came and around
the table, one guy said, has anyone ever been to Catch?
And the three other guys were like no, and he
was like and we were like, have you ever been
to Catch? And he was like, well, only the ones
in Miami Vegas, La. And he started listing off like
all these different locations of this restaurant that he'd been to,
which I think he thought was making him sound cool.
(11:21):
To me, it was making him seem a little something,
but whatever. So we all we all sort of agreed like,
all right, well, if you have traveled the world to
go to locations of this restaurant, then you here, sir,
are deemed to order for the whole table. We'll do
it family style and it'll be great. And before I
got there, the gentleman who had disappeared apparently ordered a
(11:43):
drink and they brought it in a catch embossed flask.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Oho and so.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
They brought the drink. This made me think of you, Matt.
They brought the drink in this flask and then opened
it and poured it into a glass in front of
him at the table, and then so set the flask down,
and at the end of dinner when everyone stood up,
it became a parent No one was going to take
that flask. So I said, well, there's my souvenir for
the night. And then we went back to the room
and hung out for a while. That was the last
time I was interrupted by Mark. We all sat there
(12:12):
and hung out. We were going to Encore Beach Club,
which apparently didn't open until ten thirty, and there was
an agreement made that we were going to look like
dweeds if we were there at ten thirty. So we
were waiting ten forty five to get the car head
over there and be there at eleven fifteen. And you
know what, I supported that decision because I did not
want to be sitting there at ten to fifteen, like
can we come into the club, Like.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
That's not a.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Club time for you guys, you're paid fifteen you a
line first, come on.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
Yeah, but like part of the swag is like the
line is already there and what you get in like
you're buying a huge table, so like you go past
all the people that are waiting in line.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Oh, that's sure, you had the table reserved.
Speaker 4 (12:50):
But as it turned out, that was not as you know,
cut and dry as it should have been. It took
us about fifteen minutes, but we got our We got
in and we got our table, and a few guys
went in the pool. And if you guys posted up
at the at the table, at the table, I will
say it was a holiday the next day, so I
was somewhat hopeful. But the clientele on a Wednesday night
(13:11):
is not what it is on a Friday or Saturday night.
My experience it was it was doing far between as
far as as lookers, but it was a great night.
And then for some reason at one am, I looked
at my phone and I had a text five minutes
ago from Mark asking me why something was like this
on the website. And I flew into a rage, and
(13:34):
I just started rage texting people that I work with
that I knew we're asleep, but I just couldn't help myself.
I just you know, But I got over that eventually.
Speaker 5 (13:46):
Well, it sounds like a super relaxing twenty four hours.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
What I kept piping over and over again was twenty
four hours. Twenty four hours is too much to ask.
Twenty four hours and one hundred days like that is
too much to ask. I got all of my work done,
and like there needs to be more things than need
to come up at one in the morning.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
So whatever.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Yeah, and Agnes also told me the news cycle never sleep,
so watch.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Out for that.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
Yeah, Agnes has been right about several things in this
h in this scenario. So we raged until about three
and then uh we went back to the Uh.
Speaker 5 (14:19):
When you say raged until three, is this you still
angry for two more hours?
Speaker 4 (14:24):
The other kind of raging kind of raging, And then
we all went back to a to the communal like
big room that everyone was sharing at about three point
thirty by the time we got in the car and
got back there, and I sat down and a few
other guys sat down, and then somebody said a sentence
that I'm not going to repeat here, and my reaction
to that sentence was it is time for me to
(14:45):
go to bed, and I stood up there, god damn room,
as fast as I fucking could. And I will tell
you that the next morning I was looking better off
than about eighty percent of the guys. So I think
I made the right decision there. And that was pretty
much the trip.
Speaker 5 (14:57):
Man.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
We had.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
We had breakfast, and then all the guys that were
go I went to the river portion of the trip
all took off.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
I went back to my room. I had gotten a
late checkout because there was a suggestion that people might
stay in Vegas a little later that day, and I
didn't want to miss out on anything. And uh, I
just started working and just worked all the way up
until my flight flew drove to the airport and flew home,
and it was It was a rough next day or two,
but it's all worth it, damn An.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Look, it sounds like you had a good time. I'm
glad you're able to squeeze as much fun as you
could into those little pockets of fun time between the
crazy news cycle and work and people demanding of your
time of you, and dude, that stressed me out.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
I'm like, yeah, I got I got the tingles right now,
you know, five six new days started in that twenty
four hours.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
So yeah, a wise woman.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Yeah, but you think of many days you loss at
the other end, you got to you gotta watch out
for that, the work life balance. Man, I'm worried about
you a little bit, but yeah, look, but you do
good work, and so you know, they try. See obviously
the twenty four hour Vegas trips are I've done them.
I've done it twice. They're there. Yeah, there, it's a lot,
(16:10):
it's a lot. I remember one time I was with Mikey,
my the guy plays the drums in my band, and
these two other guys and we were we were just
at in Mikey's backyard just playing like whiffle ball or something,
and it was that it was that time of your
life where people ask you what are you doing today
and you're like, oh, like, I haven't had days like
(16:31):
that a long time.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
And yeah, that is if you're going to do the
twenty four hour Vegas trip, that is the way to
do it is to do it at that portion of
your life, and preferably on a day where there is
no work the next day. Right, I don't buy it's
the mid week, you know, work week twenty four hour
trip to Vegas.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
So I remember we're just playing like we're playing baseball
in Mikey's back, I said whiffle ball, but it was
baseball and uh and we're just like, oh, what do
you guys want to do, and so much like, oh,
we should just go to Vegas tonight, and like ha ha,
and then like three four pitches later, it just started
getting worse. Here's like, oh my, I think we can.
Why don't we Let's just get in the car and
(17:07):
go to Vegas. No place to stay, no place to yeah,
no place to stay. We'll, we'll, we'll, we'll book one on
the way over. Let's just get in the car and go.
So we jump into uh my buddy Jason's I think,
what did he drive? Like a Volkswagen whatever? But it
was a stick, so he would for some reason. We
went into his car and he's the only one out
of the four of us that could drive a stick.
So it's like, all right, dude, that's quite the commitment
(17:28):
you're making already that that you were driving both ways.
But fine, So we get in the car and about
three to four hours in, I'm in the back with
this guy Steven and and he's on the he's on
a cell phone, and this is what the conversations going, like, no, baby, no,
we're just going for tonight. No you can't, No, we
(17:50):
can't do that. Yeah, okay, fine, fine, I'll have him.
Okay we will fine, I'll have him do it. Okay, yeah, yeah,
we'll be back soon. Okay, love it bye, And then
he just it's just silenced for like thirty seconds. We
all know what's coming.
Speaker 6 (18:07):
Or the other three guys are just seating like this kidnapping,
We're weird. We just passed, like where if we haven't
just passed the state line, we're about to pass it
any minute.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Now, what are you talking about? Dude?
Speaker 5 (18:20):
So he's getting on the next flight home. There's no
way you guys turned around.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Did you hear him say that this is the part
of your life where you can just decide to go
do something that is not I have flight money time
of your life. This is fucking come swoop me time
of your life.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
So he's explaining that his uh, his girlfriend is upset
that they went, and he's like, guys, we have to
turn around. And now he's just convincing and Jason just
driving like Nope, not gonna happen. And then now we're
all trying to like convince like, hey, do you know
it's not that bad, dude, Like you know, what is
(19:00):
she doing anyway?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Why she wants you to come home? Where do you think?
Like why do you have to listen to her? Yeah?
Girls aren't that great? We have to be going. Why
are you listening to her?
Speaker 2 (19:09):
What is she doing? Why does she need you here?
You know she's with you know, Jason's girl, then girlfriend Elizabeth.
They're just hanging out at the pool in the chracuzzi tonight,
Like what are we doing? We could do whatever we want,
let's just go just one night. It's like, I don't know, guys,
I got it.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
You know. And it was just a bunch of just calling.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
And that was the most awkward because I didn't really
know Steven that well so and I'm in the back
seat with him, so now I'm having to explain to
him just how life works, and you know, telling him like, hey,
you know, your day could start anytime.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
I think a wise woman.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
A new day could start anytime, and convinced him to
do it, but he was kind of like a wet
towel the entire trip just giveing.
Speaker 5 (19:52):
So he did actually make it all the way through.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
He made it all the way through, stuck around, Did
you have a girlfriend?
Speaker 1 (19:58):
The next weekend? Did go mad?
Speaker 7 (19:59):
Was?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
But like kind of basically just yes he did, but
but basically stayed in the hotel room for most of it,
just on the phone.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
All Right, we're gonna we're gonna go we're gonna go out.
We're gonna do our thing, and you got you deal
with your thing. But that's that. So that was the
first twenty four hour trip.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Are they still together?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
I think they're married with kids, so worked out?
Speaker 5 (20:20):
Wow, you want to stay there? First and last names
again for the show.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
I never stayed the last name. I stated one first
name and it could be real, could be fake. It
was real shows. I know a lot of your friends.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
And then the second Vegas Toy four our Vegas Vagas trip.
You know how I go to Vegas every or I
used to every year with my fantasy baseball team, my
fantasy baseball leagues right now, my fancy baseball team. That'd
be pretty sweet though, my fantasy.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Me and all these major League Baseball majall.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
So we every year we go at the end of
the season and then just just as an excuse to
go and and that the rules we had were the
losers of the league had to drive.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
I lost. I got last place. But here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
I had to be at a wedding on that Sunday,
so I could only go for Saturday and then and
then I'm out, I'm out to.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Go to these wedding. I actually I had to go
two weddings that day.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
But anyway, So I so I tell them, the guys,
I'm only gonna be there for twenty four hours.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Max.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
I'm like, all right, well, so I can't drive because
I'm gonna I'm gonna have to catch a flight home
to make these weddings. So John, my friend John deb
who Gary knows, He's like, all right, I'll drive. So
we all pile in his car and then we're getting
gas and I just remember, I'm like, oh man, Chris
really got out of this time. And to Drive's like, yeah, wait,
(21:51):
you did get last place. You're driving my car. And
so that was so that the punishment starts at the beginning.
So now I had to drive his car up till Ways.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
And I asked, because if I had been in that car,
and I'm in that league. You're paying for the gas
as well.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
I don't even remember, probably not but that, but think goodness,
you're not our league, or you weren't in that car
because I could see I could see you rallying the
troops here.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
And then we had to do some bets and the
bet I lost.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
I remember, I've lost bets where I've had to wear
high heels for two hours.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
I had to.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
You've also won bets where you wore heels for two hours.
It's kind of weird, you know, you know.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
The first time I lost, But then when I realized
what they could do for me, yea, in my in
my calves, I was like, all right, and.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Your free knights at the Cosmo.
Speaker 5 (22:38):
Yeah's got to pay for those rooms.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Well anyway, so the bet bet, the bad bet in
this one is I had to eat hot sauce, like
the spicy hot sauce off of the Winter's finger.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
That's not so bad, it's.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
Not that bad.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
But who's the friend who's like, and if you lose,
you have to suck it off my finger?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
It was my friends friends with that guy he officiated
my wedding. He got the craziest hot sauce he could find,
and he's like really into like food and everything. And
when he put his he put like one of those
plastic gloves that like guys in like the kitchens wear
like at restaurants.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
This is so humiliated.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
He dipped that. He dipped like his fingers in the air.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
And so then right before we all go out for
the night, he's like, you gotta do it, and he
dipped it, and I had to just just take it,
suck it off right, suck it off his finger in
front of everybody. And it was the spiciest thing I've
ever had, had the hiccups, crying, like just miserable for
like an hour, to the point where and.
Speaker 5 (23:53):
We are only crying and miserable because it was spicy,
not because of the degradation that you just went to,
you know what.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Yeah, you're because that, Yeah it was. It was so
hot and painful, and it was hot. We're staying, some
might argue otherwise. And then so we're we all all
like twelve of us bumped up in this like this
one suite at like the link and and there was
(24:23):
nothing in this suite but one bed and like a.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Hot tub in the middle of the room tub and uh.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
And I just remember going to that hotb just charning
the water on and like out of so and just
dunking my head into the faucet for like ten minutes,
just doing anything to stop this pain and ruined by night.
Had a terrible time in Vegas. End up falling asleep.
There's no pillow. We're all in the same room, so
(24:52):
there are no pillars, are blankets anywhere. So I just
have my hoodie and I put my hoodie on and
I sleep on the just on the straight floor, just
try to get as mu sleeps I can before I
have to wake up early to catch this flight. And
it just the floor just reeks of urine. God, and
I'm just like this sucks.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
You know. I didn't drink. I didn't.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
I didn't drink cause I have to wake up so early.
So I'm just like I'm not even drunk or anything.
I'm just sober and just just had the most miserable
night and then just went to these these two weddings
the next day. And so those are my two twenty
four hour Vegas runs. Wow and both not awesome.
Speaker 5 (25:29):
Calen, do you have any super depressing Vegas stories to share?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
The camaraderie was great, but my my personal experience was
was wasn't very fun.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Kalen and I actually saw each other on Saturday. We did.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Yeah, it was fun.
Speaker 5 (25:43):
We had a good all sucks hot sauce off each
other's fingers or what you know.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Gary was missed, wasn't wasn't one movie. I'm okay with this.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
So it's our friend Pat who worked with Cruel Drinks,
and I'm maybe listening to this.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Oh my no.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
He does this show with Dylan who won the Hunger
Home back in the day. So anyway, he had a
big He had a big shindig where he gets a
stage and he basically just has a few bands played.
Everyone just hangs out in this is extra large backyard
and we and we partied the whole day and it's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Kaitlin went.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
I will say I was supposed to go, but my
wife's office decided to throw a summer Christmas party. So
basically there they'd decided one Christmas party is not enough,
we will do one in June as well. You had
a half Christmas party pretty much pretty much a half
birthday Christmas party, and I was obliged to go to that,
which was nice, but I was bummed when halfway through
(26:40):
Patrick called me and said.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Yo, Bull, Brian just showed up. Where you at? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (26:43):
I was like, I am one hundred miles south of
you and there will be no way I can join.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
Unfortunately it was quite through you and you were missed
because we all thought you were on your way, so
everybody was kind of waiting on you too, like, oh,
it is Gary, cause like I thought I heard he
was coming.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Baby, But yeah, so who was there?
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Can Ball, Brian Brian were there immediately the Nuts the
second that I saw.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
I've never been so jealous to have not gotten punched
at the nuts at that party. God damn it.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Who else? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Great, Yeah, wonderful conversation with an awesome spirits, He and Christy. Yeah,
and of course Kalen was there, Me, Pat, a couple of.
Speaker 7 (27:29):
Them, just Corolla drinks, fans yes to come to the
events and stuff.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
So yeah, it was just nice seeing all the all
these faces that I haven't seen in a while.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
So it was funny. So he called the.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
Day generation Fest because he had all these bands playing.
You know, I'm like, oh, cool, we're gonna have a
bunch of different bands playing all these different generations of music.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
It's like TI die so it's like seventies and like, okay,
so we'll see it all. And then.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Uh, so the first band plays and they're like a
kid like a kiddie band, playing like kids songs.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
I'll talk.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
There's a lot of kids at this, a lot of kids.
So it's like, you know, wheels on the bus and stuff.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
The second band.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Plays and it fucking loved that song.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Dude, it's such a banger.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
It crushes live. Dude.
Speaker 7 (28:10):
You should have seen you should have seen these guys playing.
They had the tambourines, they had like, you know, the blankets,
they had everything going and Chris is just looking at
him going like I can't follow this. Yeah, I can't
follow this entertainment.
Speaker 5 (28:23):
Oh you were gonna play, Chris, I didn't really.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Oh yeah yeah, so we were on the bill too,
so so and then yeah, then it was Seftie Wilder
Tailor's kids band.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
They're in high school. And then uh and then Loxy.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
So headliners headliners slash like it's weird, like we were
the old guys, we're the old generation. And that heard
that hurt a little bit.
Speaker 7 (28:48):
I was standing next to Chris at one point and
he was kind of running the sound for the thing,
and and Mikey walked over when the teenagers were playing,
and he turns Chris and he goes. I think it
was safe to say that this is the strangest billing
that we've ever played before.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
But anyway, it had a great time regardless. All the
bands are great. So the first band, they're called the Beatbuds,
do you guys, Yeah, they're just jamming out wheels on
the bus and like, you know, getting the kids involved,
throwing out tambourines and shakers and like, yeah, I'm looking
at King like they're really working the crowd here. I
don't have any of this stuff. I don't have any
this kind of banter. And then they bring out that parachute,
(29:25):
which we all loved in elementary school, and they're all doing.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
The parachute thing.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
Oh yeah, yeah, geese.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Dude, they really they really brought out the big guns there.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
So that's not fair. That's a prop act.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
It's a prop act, but I mean, well accepted, so
what are you gonna do? But yeah, I had had
a great time at Generation Fest, and do you guys.
Speaker 5 (29:44):
Open or close with Twinkle Twinkle because I know that's
like one of your go to.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
We usually closed with it, but beat Buds played it
so we can across it off our set list.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
No, Matt, you know they closed with all be watching you. Yeah,
we have to do that version. Now. We did play.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
We did play Big pun not didn't get received very well,
but it's fine.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
But that that's the that's the new Might just take
that Joe out of the rotation. Oh no, you.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Know, these guys, I'm gonna I'm gonna run out of
songs here anyway. So it was good though, seeing Kitlin
and everybody, and it's just it was nice. It was
nice being being around these people.
Speaker 7 (30:30):
It was fun watching Chris Uh, you know, kind of
censor the songs that he was playing a little bit.
He's talked before about how he can't play sex and candy, Snacks,
Snacks and candy, and so he's in the middle of
doing Santa Ria and I know the line that's coming
up where he goes and I got something for his
punk ass, And I was like, what's he gonna do?
(30:51):
And he goes, and he goes and I got something
for his punk butt. I started laughing so hard.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
I'm not I say it. I'm gonna say it in
a microphone, Kaitlin. But I a lot of that.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
A lot of those moments were me realizing one second
before it happened, like oh gosh, oh gosha, gosh, what
have I done? So but you know, it was it
was just good scene everybody, And uh, yeah, Gary, you
were you were very much missed.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
So I missed you guys as well. I told you
guys something off the air that happened to me, uh recently,
And I discovered that while it was at the office
Christmas party, so that was not exactly a great day.
I would have given anything to have been with you
guys where you were. So yeah, man, I definitely missed
you guys. And it was devastating when I heard how
(31:38):
many people were ended up attending that are dear to
me and that I haven't seen in far too long.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Oh, by the way, I saw that I was at
the scene of the crime of a Calen's podcast. I
just want toll the uh I saw it in person.
I mean it stripped over it. It was it was
a hazard they had. But then she usually to put
cones up. Klan it wasn't anymore. Oh okay, go ahead later, no,
(32:06):
go ahead.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
Oh.
Speaker 7 (32:08):
So it's funny because on our like YouTube videos, it's
a bunch of people going like, hey, I want to
hear you guys have a discussion about you know, navy
seels and I want to hear It's a lot of
people just throwing out ideas like hey, I want to
hear you talk about this. I want to hear you
talk about that. And one guy was like, I want
to hear you guys have a discussion about cable management.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
I couldn't read this.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
And if Kanen's like, but look see I rounded it. It
looks fine, and there's like two cables. They just have
like a little velcrow tire like just right across the floor.
I'm like, oh my god, dude. But it felt because
I've been seeing it so much in pictures videos and
my nightmares that when I saw it in person, it
it's as if you know, Matt would know this. When
(32:52):
you're in the Universal Studis tram too, when you're seeing
all the cars from the movies that you've been watching,
and they's like, oh they called picture cars picture cars.
You're seeing all the pictures cars like what picture cars
would you see.
Speaker 5 (33:02):
Anywhen I worked there, it was like the Glorean. You
had the Flintstones car, showed you how dated that was.
I'm pretty sure they had one of the fast and
furious cars.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (33:16):
Uh and then uh oh they have like the Jurassic
Park one of the Jurassic Park vans as well.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Okay, the vans are the Jeeps Jeeps?
Speaker 5 (33:23):
No, it was like one of the vans. It wasn't
a jeep.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
Yeah, sorry, I'm not sure I like that universal really anyway.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
So yeah, when you see those cars, it's like it's
awesome to see them, but they're.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
Like, oh they look kind of they go look kind
of smaller in real life.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
It's just like it lacks the magnificence of of seeing
them on the big screen.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
That's what I felt like.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
That looks more like a van than a jeep.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Yeah that yeah, that's right. It's really ruined it. But
I remember saying the cable management is not as bad
when you nearly as bad. Still bothered me. Well, look,
they say the YouTube does add twelve wires.
Speaker 7 (34:07):
It was cleaned up for the party, so it didn't
look nearly as bad than when I'm recording and I
have all the cameras out and running into all the
equipment and stuff.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
That's when it's but.
Speaker 7 (34:18):
Yeah, at this point, like I don't even have a
camera on my cables anymore. I just I took that
camera ankle away from.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
The Oh, just zoomed into your face real tight.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
It's work. I'll take it. I prefer that, Oh, Chris go.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
And then uh oh, so I was watched speaking of
getting old, So I'm watching Game seven last night.
Speaker 5 (34:43):
Basketball. Yeah, yes, man, I just wanted to get it
in before you even asked.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
Matt, what state one?
Speaker 3 (34:50):
Who's playing?
Speaker 7 (34:51):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (34:52):
Boy, I actually do you know who's playing? And I
know who won?
Speaker 6 (34:56):
So oh, yeah, you want to hear I thought, dude,
I believe.
Speaker 5 (35:02):
It was the Oklahoma.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
My question.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
It's much better than I thought you would do.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Yeah. I still don't think that he could follow through
and name the teams.
Speaker 5 (35:18):
But it's the Thunder and the Pacers.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Okay, just enough enough time to google it where Julie's
juice googling in the other room in his ear. Either way, No,
I believe it, dude, so so obviously Okay, see wins.
Congratulations to uh all the bob of boys and Okay,
see and Joe enjoying your yourself. But uh, you know
(35:44):
everyone's talking about Halburton's injury where his achilles injuries.
Speaker 7 (35:49):
Oh man, did that because you could see it?
Speaker 2 (35:54):
I'm not going to did you look at that? I
looked the second I knew it was gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
I looked.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
I just looked away and all they replayed its.
Speaker 7 (36:02):
Know that like you were going to be able to
see it, so you can see your like his leg
like pop and yeah, and it was gross.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Because imagine like a rubber band from like you're going
just going down your leg and then it just snaps
and the thing just like just like just like rolls
right up right.
Speaker 5 (36:20):
You just saw it in your mind, but you described
it in a way that makes me think you did
actually see it.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Oh the theater of my mind, Matt is so effed
up like it all. That's why the wikis are so fun.
It's probably worse what's happening in.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Anyway.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
So I was thinking, like, I think I may have
come to terms because I'm I'm gonna be forty soon.
I think I may have come to terms with all
these Achilles injuries and ACL injuries, especially like like three
superstars had achilles tears in this one playoff alone, this
one playoff series. I mean this the you know playoff
(36:58):
run in the NBA alone, A number zero by the way,
kind of kind of eerie. But I'm just thinking, like
I'm never gonna play basketball again. I don't think I'll
ever play basketball. I mean I was like shoot around,
but I don't think I'll ever play like competitively hard again.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
Like I won't run.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
I'm gonna play like old guy ball where I just
kind of just hang out on the outside and just
and just throw up threes or just like back into
people or whatever, just like real slow. I might even
have to relearn my jump shots to where I bring
the ball all the way behind my head and just
and just toss like that. I look, I'm there, I
(37:37):
get it. I get it now. Like it's like skateboarding.
All the old guys growing up, they would only skate transitions.
They wouldn't really do any aerial stuff. They just kind
of like to cruise around and just stay loaded the ground.
Maybe some slappies on the curb, but that's it.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
They're not doing anything real big or technical. I'm looking
at that now and like, if I ever jump on
a skateboard again, that's the most attract stuff to me.
Speaker 4 (38:00):
Now to your point, there was a very large trampoline
in the backyard of this party that I was at. Well,
you guys were at Patrick's, And at one point I
was standing, wait, was this at.
Speaker 5 (38:12):
The Encore nightclub? I'm getting confused?
Speaker 1 (38:16):
In a backyard of a home in South Orange County.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Can you just imagine like a bunch of bachelors getting
to the club early and are just jumping on the
trampoline before everybody gets there.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Like it's gonna be so much fun.
Speaker 4 (38:29):
I mean, the group with this group, it probably would
have happened if it was on the menu. But I
looked at a couple of guys I was standing with,
who are my age? And I just kind of looked
at the trampoline and said, I don't think you get
me on there with ten thousand dollars in cash right now?
Speaker 5 (38:42):
And they all were like, not a chance in hell.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
Just you get to a certain point, you got to know,
you know your limitations of your age. I think we're there.
Speaker 5 (38:50):
What about diving board?
Speaker 7 (38:52):
Oh hell yeah, I mean if there's a diving board around,
there's no way, I'm not jumping.
Speaker 5 (38:56):
Off that thing. Yeah, the thing.
Speaker 4 (38:58):
Here's the thing, though, I think I would be much
more apt to dive off of like one of those
fixed like Olympic style like diving towers the spring loaded one.
Like I'm not sure that I could go do the
triple triple jump and trust that I'm gonna land on
the end exactly right to be able to.
Speaker 1 (39:14):
Like do a trick. I don't know if I want
that smoke.
Speaker 5 (39:18):
I like, how in your mind the implication is that
you have to do a trick.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Off of the timing board. Yeah, you're getting that much air,
you got do something, something just to.
Speaker 5 (39:31):
A jumping jack, you know, just make sure you close
your legs.
Speaker 4 (39:34):
I guess my point is just the spring loaded diving board,
there's two jumps involved in order to get any real air.
You can't just on those things that were like really
wobbly at the end, so you can't like walk to
the end. You kind of gotta like jump and like
bounce off of it. I don't think I want any
part of that.
Speaker 1 (39:49):
I don't think I've ever jumped off a diving board.
That's the way that you explain.
Speaker 3 (39:52):
It, really, I think that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
They're a rare commodity out here. They're illegal here.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Yeah, so I don't think I really came across any
oh growing up, they were.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
They were around when I was a kid. But you
know you're.
Speaker 5 (40:07):
Telling me after the liner check they wouldn't let you
jump off a diving board.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
No, Well, I mean they send me, they sent me back,
they sent me. There has to be a line, Matt.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
Yeah, I love that, Garret, thank you the Yeah. But
I don't think I've ever done it, So maybe I
want to one day.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
I want to.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
All right, Well, uh, we have a little bit of
time left. I didn't do any comments last week, so
let's do a couple of quick ones before we get
out of here. Club all right, Oh, I forgot Dawson's
not here because he has like a comedy thing, So
a comedy comedy nights all week. So busy, busy boy.
(40:45):
So if you're winning, where Dawson is, that's where he is.
Speaker 1 (40:47):
Oh, and I forgot that.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
As we near the end of this month, we are
pushing the movie club and the meet up into next week.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
But it gives you more time to see the movie,
which is now You see Me.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
Now, Matt, Matt correct me if I'm wrong. They not
come around on the third one and finally named it
Now You Don't.
Speaker 5 (41:05):
The third one is in fact called now you see Me,
Now you Don't.
Speaker 4 (41:08):
Okay, Now I'm sorry if this has said before, I
can't tell, but I became obsessed with this this this
morning when I was getting ready for work. Why is
it not called now You three Me? Gary's right, they've missed.
They missed the boat on now You Don't. They had
a couple options either for now now you see Me
Part two, they just rename it to now You Don't,
(41:30):
the way that Edge of Tomorrow turned in to Live
I Repeat, or Mission Impossible, Dead Reckoning returned to Final Reckoning.
I mean basically any Tom Cruise movie. He just changes
the movie like after they come out. He does it
all the time.
Speaker 2 (41:44):
So yeah, they could, they could. They should just change
it and then yes, Gary, now you three Me? Yeah
it makes so much sense. Yeah they really they really
missed that boat as well. So all right, well anyway.
These are comments found on our Facebook group, Facebook dot
com slash group slash Bobo Boy Army Worldwide LLC is
(42:04):
the u r L. That's where you go join our
Facebook group it's constantly growing, an excellent community, my favorite
place on the internet, and I'm excited about this. On
Ryan Roberts, he's kind of posting about working at a
festival that he was gonna he's gonna be working at one,
and then he was at one, and I'm really just
keeping us all updated on his festival life, which is
(42:25):
which is awesome because I like that he's working these
festivals and getting.
Speaker 5 (42:29):
Experience all this time he's on a fest Quest's.
Speaker 2 (42:31):
Yeah, he's on a fest quest. And while he was
first questing, he ran into another Bobo boy, Nathan Krea.
Speaker 5 (42:42):
Oh, it's the algorithm in action.
Speaker 1 (42:45):
That is exactly right, Matt.
Speaker 2 (42:46):
The plgorithm is still working, it's still moving, it's constantly flowing, growing, showing,
and it worked for Ryan and Nathan. They took a
selfies together and posted in the Facebook group, what a
great night, he says. I did not know there was
another one of us in my city. I also delivered
(43:07):
on my promise to get a fellow Bobo into a
show and buy them a beer if they come down,
and they did it, and I think they're friends for life.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
So there you go. I think they are too, and
I will say that you know, when you're at a bachelor
party like I was at, there's a lot of you know,
making small talk and meeting guys, and the common question
was how do you know the bachelor? And there was
a lot of undergrad business school you know, work together.
Then there were more than more than a few.
Speaker 4 (43:30):
There were four or five guys who were like our
festival buddies, who's met at a festival been friends ever since.
Speaker 1 (43:35):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (43:37):
By the way, Ryan wrote that there's a life hack
for festival workers and that's bringing extra pairs of brand
new socks to change in a halfway through your long day,
if you will.
Speaker 1 (43:45):
Thank you so, thanks, Ry. But that is smart, dude.
There is There is not.
Speaker 2 (43:52):
A lot that of a better feeling than putting out
a fresh, freshly pair of socks. I mean, Kialan hasn't
done it in decades, but but.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
We all everyone else knows.
Speaker 7 (44:03):
They actually just put some some fresh ones on right
before we started the pod, and they're fun and festive
and well they're they're craft mac and cheese socks.
Speaker 5 (44:12):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
I like that.
Speaker 2 (44:15):
I was wondering whether in your step today, like with
the way you're acting, it's the new socks that reeks
of Father's.
Speaker 1 (44:21):
Day gift to me, Kaylen, I think it was birthday, Okay.
Speaker 2 (44:28):
Kevin Bailey says, I'm so happy to hear the mouth
flicks are back.
Speaker 1 (44:33):
So hey, Kevin, me too. And that's all the time
we have for comments.
Speaker 2 (44:39):
I look, I know Joy is anti Gary, but you know.
Speaker 1 (44:43):
Hey, look man, I used to do them with you,
and you know that. You know I used to. I
used to do only one. Just do them again. What
does she know?
Speaker 2 (44:51):
You're this is the pocket, this is just the boys. Okay,
we should be able to let you do mouthlicks.
Speaker 1 (44:56):
Just do it. Okay, she's she's off doing her own thing.
Don't worry about her. All right.
Speaker 2 (45:01):
You're with us now, and it's not the way it works, bro,
don't ruin us for all of us.
Speaker 5 (45:08):
I feel like I'm sitting in the backseat of a
car and away to Las Vegas right now.
Speaker 1 (45:14):
All right?
Speaker 2 (45:14):
Well, look, last last comm comment is someone's asking has
anyone heard and seeing a movie called Simon Birch. It's
in the fifties. It's about a big dwarf but sorry,
it's about a dwarf kid who the town who the
townspeople keep distret guarding the only big name is Jim
Carrey as a narrator.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
It's not a comedy. It's this a Mandela effect.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
And that was Jacob Morales asking it's definitely a movie
I've seen.
Speaker 1 (45:35):
Oh yeah, me too of this movie. Yeah, so there
you go.
Speaker 2 (45:41):
All right, Well, anyway those are comments everybody, thanks for writing,
and we appreciate you. And and I will say, just
some maintenance here.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
I'm sorry about that time. Did you play the intro?
Speaker 5 (45:54):
You did.
Speaker 7 (45:57):
Well?
Speaker 1 (45:58):
Because I have one more thing to say. Yeah, what
are they to say?
Speaker 6 (46:03):
Let me finish, guys, if we're jumping down my throat,
let me do my thing, all right, chill you guys
are just so eager to just get in there, like.
Speaker 1 (46:14):
I have.
Speaker 2 (46:14):
I have a maintenance uh update here, we do have
an AI bot that is just posting questions into our
our group called he's called the Bobo body.
Speaker 7 (46:24):
Like.
Speaker 2 (46:24):
One thing he wrote was just it's just the text,
which cornhole trick is your most Which cornhole trick shot
is your most impressive? Now, these Ai bobo bots, I
mean these AI bots, they I've seen him in others.
They're not but I've seen him in other groups and
they do similar things where they just take all of
(46:45):
like the information from this group since its existence, and
then tries to create they basically engagement farm and just
try to see how much engagement they can make off
a single question. But man, they get me because I
don't lead who writes it first? I'm like, oh, yeah,
that's a good question. Let me think about it. I
should write it. And then, like even in the other groups,
I mean, it's the same thing, like, dang, it's working.
Speaker 1 (47:05):
It's working.
Speaker 5 (47:06):
No, it's not lying.
Speaker 2 (47:10):
Yeah, but I I don't I don't know how to
delete it. So Gary, if you know.
Speaker 5 (47:14):
How, Gary, I will ask again.
Speaker 1 (47:18):
Please Taylor Swift, Ta Taylor Swift, God, damn you?
Speaker 5 (47:25):

Speaker 7 (48:55):
I was just finishing watching a movie and then it
just auto played after the first scene is like, I'm
I'm fucking in so and it's great.

I was talking about maybe maybe it was like the
Travelers Championship or something like just watching golf at the
part in kilin Licks was like, oh, yeah, you're watching Stick,
