Speaker 1 (00:11):
Hello, damn it, dude, I had a I had a really.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Super wrestler this podcast. What's happening?
Speaker 1 (00:17):
It was my Dracula voice. It was the mouth flicks.
The mouth flicks were pretty good. They're they're very spooky, Yes,
very spooky. Hey, everybody, thanks for tuning in. It's the
water Cooler, your favorite podcast. We appreciate you being here.
You know how the show goes. Hi, Chris Locksimona kick
it with my crol digital buzz of Yesteryear with me today. There,
(00:43):
I'm back.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
All the way in Transylvania, Texas, it's Matt Fondali brother,
and then all the way from his sarcophagus, it's Garrie Smith,
(01:08):
and then Leslie but not leastle from.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
The tomb of Ancient Doom. It's Mike Dawson.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
One two, three, four vibe. I'm doing the count.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
That's actually really good.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
That was very good. Yeah, Hey guys, happy Fondalween. It
is the week of Fondalween. We got Friday.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Celebrating over there raging.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah, Matt, what what's going on with your yard look like?
Speaker 5 (01:49):
Yeah, our front yard looks a little sadder than it
should because a giant storm blew through the last couple
of nights. It just completely fucked up everything that I
put out there. So the the spirit woman who's hanging
from the tree, her wig is slightly adjusted. The ghosts
hanging from the raptors are instead of with their arms up,
they're completely soaked and drenched in the electricals. Just kind
(02:11):
of like fizzing out a little bit. I had this
like campfire scene that has just been completely flooded. And then,
to make matters worse, my bat monster sign it lifted
out of the out of the mud, and when I
went to go put it back in, I pushed down
too hard and I snapped one of the wings off.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
Damn it. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
So it's rough out front, but inside the house is
as spooky as ever we have our Halloween village. It
took us almost an entire week to put out, just
on our little display table. We had some friends over
this past weekend because we realized that we were the
only people who were seeing this and that was kind
of sad. So we were like, let's invite friends over
(02:55):
so that they could also see our decorations.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Did you tell them that it was a viewing party
for your decorations?
Speaker 2 (03:00):
We had them invite their dogs. So it was a
dog like a dog Halloween party.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Aura, yeah, dog duration.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Yeah, so we had six dogs running around in our backyard.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
In the month.
Speaker 6 (03:10):
Did you just invite the dogs over to play or
did you tell these people who you were inviting that
there was like a joint purpose of like them viewing
your decoration.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
I mean it was implied. We've been talking talking a
big game all month. You know you should come by, Yeah,
you should check it out.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
And then we're like, no, you're coming over? What we
do it at our place?
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Exactly, No, no, no, no, you don't understand.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
I will also say on the horror movie front, not
been a particularly strong eear for horror. That's really Kalin's
not here to back me up here. But usually by
this time in the month, I feel like I've watched
thirty movies or so, and I think I'm at like
seventeen with a couple that I just stopped and started,
you know, or started and then stopped to be more accurate.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Well, okay, I'm not that surprising because my strategy for streaming
movies when it's finally my turn to pick a movie
for the night, which isn't it's not a common night
that we have where I can sit down with Jenny
and say, hey, let's watch Yeah, let's you know, I'm
(04:20):
feeling love, I'm feeling romance. Yeah, let's put on some Honora.
So I got to pick the movie the other night.
And so my strategy has been I go on to
Rotten Tomatoes and I just filter out certified fresh movies
because I don't have time for anything less than certified
(04:40):
than certified fresh. It I need something, I need something
of quality because my time is precious, it is very
valuable for me. So I need something that is certified fresh.
And I do that. I filter out all the even
just the freshes. I felt that.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Of course I found out that's not certified. Dude, Yeah,
that hasn't been certified.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I need I need these things to be certified or
get back, and so I filter them out. And I
will say about thirty five tot of the movies that
are certified Fresh are horror movies from the last five months.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
And I'm just scrolling through these like, is there anything
else coming out?
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Why? What are these movies?
Speaker 6 (05:31):
So I was surprised to hear you say, Matt, that
it was a slow year for horror because I thought
based on Chris has told that kind of anecdote before,
and Kaylin, you know, has been saying it's a huge year,
and that's kind of all this is making money. So
is it possible that they're just like still too recent
and you don't have access to them yet.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
I mean, I like that you're implying that I only
watched movies for free. That's good, it's true, so it's
not wrong.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
I wasn't I wasn't meant to be a bit I know,
I know.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
I mean, there have been some movies that have crossed over,
They've become cultural phenomenons, if you will. Uh. Sinners and
Weapons are probably the two primary examples. Twenty eight years
Later wasn't a huge enough hit, but that was obviously
pretty recent. So there are movies like that. But what
I'm talking about are the Shutter Kalin classics, which are like, yeah, exactly,
(06:27):
and usually you know, midway through the month, I kind
of hear for a list of like all of these
randoms titles that I've never heard of that are absolutely
worth a watch, and this year, I don't know, I've
tried some of them out. They're just there's not so
many good ones this year, dass. You're a big horror guy.
You watch they right now.
Speaker 7 (06:42):
I think Weapons was the only really good one this year. Honestly,
I didn't like Sinners, Yeah I wasn't.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I wasn't a big fan of that either. Weapons was good.
Speaker 7 (06:53):
And The Conjuring last, right, that was a pile of
dog crawd up.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Yeah that was And that was a conjuring movie.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
And you're like, really, the conjuring universe, that's right, So
that's conjuring, that's insidious.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
That the nun, the noun Annabelle, that's right.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Yeah, it was a there's a hole.
Speaker 7 (07:17):
There's a Sydney Sweeney horror where she plays a nun.
And I think it's called immaculate.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
It is crazy.
Speaker 7 (07:25):
And if I believe, I got seventy five percent of
the way through it, and I'm like, I don't, I don't.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
I just don't care anymore.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Oh but the ending, dude, you gotta watch the.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Watch it.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
You don't even need to rewatch the whole movie. Just
wherever you're at it, just finish it. You will be
grateful you did. I promise you that I will. That
movie will be over and you'll be like fuck yeah, dude, I'm.
Speaker 6 (07:47):
Telling you exactly how I would feel after it was
over to Yeah, I'm.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
With you, I'm with you. Gary, all right? Well sorry,
no k on a tok horror movie. So at Matt
is really this isn't your this isn't your audience, my man?
I know as he's wearing his Camp Crystal Lake shirt.
What if we do the opposite?
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Talked about musical comedies? What's what are you talking about?
Speaker 6 (08:14):
I mean, no horror, but maybe we could do a
little comedy. You guys want to hear a joke?
Speaker 4 (08:19):
Oh? Perfect, I would love that.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
So only if it's in the corner.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
I heard. Yeah, So Kal's on here, so we're having
we're having a sub and he will be joining us
off the bench. I hear, I hear them rehearsing. There
is there is an attempt at this being good. Is
the fact that Okay, garys I seek.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
To the stage Ghostbusters T shirt love.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
It, jor walk into Okay, he doesn't have headphones on,
so you can't hear me greet him. Oh what there is? Hey,
Garrett Junior?
Speaker 8 (08:53):
What you call two?
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Which is that live together?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Oh? I don't know that's good though? What broom.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
That was good.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Joke, so good good yeah.
Speaker 8 (09:17):
G j.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Yeah, that was that was I mean clean, kept it clean. Ya.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
I was wing for a dick joke. I was a
dick joke.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Yeah, a joke last time, so I was. I was
ready for it.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
There are two things at play here.
Speaker 6 (09:36):
His mother wasn't wild about the fact that he told
that joke, which I can understand.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I seemed to think. I personally was cool with it.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
I thought it was amazing, perhaps his finest moment.
Speaker 6 (09:49):
So since that has happened, there has been a book
fair at his school and he has purchased several joke
books and he's been reading them, so he's pulling material
I think from there.
Speaker 5 (09:59):
Is he becoming a Halloween kid? Does he like Halloween?
Is he excited at the prospect? Is he watching a
kid Halloween specials of his favorite shows.
Speaker 6 (10:10):
Not as an exclusive intake of his media diet the
way the Fundoween household does it.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
But yes, absolutely.
Speaker 6 (10:17):
And I don't know if this phenomenon existed for you
when you were a kid, Matt. It did not for
me when I was a kid. But there is a
whole world of what's called a trunk retreat. Are you
aware of these?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
I'm aware of it.
Speaker 5 (10:30):
I feel like that was a post COVID or mid
COVID creation, or at least that's when it kind of exploded.
Speaker 6 (10:36):
That could That totally makes sense and it seems to
have stuck around though. So he has, like he's been
to on at least two and probably three of those
so far this year.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I went to my first one yesterday. I mean, they're great,
it's it's cute, but I'll bring Benue go.
Speaker 6 (10:53):
Yeah, good call. But yeah, if you go to like
all the ones in your communit are you like he's
been in full Halloween mode for ten days already.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Yeah, all right, Well, I do want to talk about
the truck retreats in just but first, speaking of books
and dick jokes. So I went to the library the
other day.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Can't wait to see where this is going. We got
the books, we got the books born.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
So I'm watching the Boy and Jenn has to go
to work and she just goes, hey, the library is
doing like a little story time for toddlers. Why don't
you bring Bennie over and then and maybe you know,
check out some books or something to bring them home
(11:45):
and return these ones, and I said, okay, So I
bring him to the storytime. It's a blast, the kids
are singing, have fun. And then I go to the
I don't have a library card, so I go and
I register from when I go, how old you have
to be in there? Like, there's no aage limit. So
I've given them the form that I've written. Now I
was like, wait, so he can get one. I put
(12:06):
Benny and they're like yeah. So I'm like, I take
I take the form back and I cross out all
of my names and I suben Benny's name and he
gets his first library card. It's very cute. He's so excited.
So we we go and get a few kids books.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
They have, like you know those picture books just bes
not with you.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
No, this is this is just maybe in a dope Dad,
Now this.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Was a lie.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
You say kid books?
Speaker 5 (12:32):
Are we talking like Hunger Games, Lord of the Flies.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Young Adult Man?
Speaker 4 (12:38):
Yeah, there are kids in that.
Speaker 7 (12:41):
Those are the books that Benny is checking out. He's yeah,
he's right in the middle of a fucking bridge to
ter a bit.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
That's that's terrible, terrible ending. So that one down.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Yeah, maybe I'll have to stop him at least two
thirds in, so we get a few picks.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
He ever want to watch the movie? Kids tell him,
don't watch that. It's not for kids.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Oh man, advertising, I got some letters to write. So
we're getting books and I get one that's about tools.
It's just called like my Toolbox. It's very it's just
each page is just it's just as the name of
a tool. And I think he's going to need to
learn this stuff. So we check that out and and
(13:26):
then I bring it home and I'm it's before naptime
and I'm sitting and I'm reading it to me. He's
sitting on my lap. It's a very beautiful moment. I'm
using my soft voice to get them calm. The sound
machine's going and he's starting to he's starting to dip
a little bit. And I'm reading and I go, okay,
turn the page. This is a screwdriver. It's for twisting
in screws. And I go, oh, that's nice. And then
(13:50):
I go to the next page. This is a wrench
and then and then you look wrenching for for wrenching,
that's what you think it would say. Dos. But so
now he's starting to pass out. He's starting he's you know,
it's naptime. He's starting to go and I said, so
this is the wrench for wrenching, but it also says
(14:10):
it also turns the big fat nuts.
Speaker 8 (14:16):
And I lose my mind. And now I'm just cackling for.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Ten minutes. I'll say time, it's bitter, really like one
to one and a half minutes.
Speaker 6 (14:29):
One and a half minutes is a long time, cry,
laughing cry.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Laughing, like I can't continue.
Speaker 8 (14:35):
I'm just crying, laughing to the sky, like what are
you hold on?
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I'm very sure silently to try to keep the kid.
I couldn't.
Speaker 5 (14:46):
I just.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
So you are just.
Speaker 6 (14:49):
Waking your child up, and just he has no context
for what's going on.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I couldn't believe it. And I'm like, okay, this, what
are you doing here? That that's an Easter egg for
for the dope dads. But so I'm laughing. And then
eventually he gets tired again, put him down, and then
that night when he's finally he is asleep, the books
(15:15):
still in his room. I'm trying to tell John McK
chin this book that I read, Penny, it's I was
laughing because it was telling me about about what a
wrench does, and it says, returning the what is it,
the big nut, the big fat nuts? And then she's like,
there's no way it said it, Like I'm pretty sure
it said big fat nuts. It's like no, no, no,
(15:37):
no no. She's like, that is in your head, child,
like it said big fat nuts. So was that picture
so ready? Because you sent it to her the next morning.
That was why I took it. I took this morning
and I texted it to him like I told you,
(16:00):
fat nuts.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
Your neighbors are like, what's happening next door? He just
keeps shouting big fat nuts.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Why did you respond to that?
Speaker 2 (16:10):
The cry cry, laughing faces.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
I mean no, it was appropriate because yeah, but anyway,
so you're talking about you're talking about books and dick jokes,
and I found I found a pretty good one, so okay, Yeah,
so I went, I went trunk or treating and the
dad tax is in full effect.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
I am my.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Belly is just full of candy bush right now, you guys, It's.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
It's a real problem. It's going.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
It's a real problem.
Speaker 6 (16:33):
I have like been so far, I've resisted, but like
eventually I will have that first piece and then it's
on because this kid gets way more candy than he
should ever. Yeah, I mean it's three trunk er treats already.
Each one we left with a full bag of candy.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
Like.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Nobody is giving the little kid's credit, but they are
providing for their family when they go out to the treat,
there are gathering and so I'm eating a bunch, but
I have a kind of have a conundrum with the
candy I'm giving out.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
So I went a cann dundrum.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
I tried to No, that's good. I like it. It's
Fonda Wayne manank.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
You perfect slider slide. I appreciate.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
So I went to the store to get candy, and
I it's always the big questions, the same thing when
I go to yogurt Land. It's the same thing when
I go to ice cream shops. I'm sure Matt deals
with this too. My going fruity or chocolate? What are
we gonna do for them deserts or them candies? Fruit
(17:41):
or chocolate, Just depending on what you're feeling.
Speaker 5 (17:45):
It sounds like a fucking Facebook pool if ever I've
heard one.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
Yeah, we have to we have to praise it fruity
or chocolate, because I feel like that could be misinterpreted.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
The pool is what the pool is gary chocolate.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
That is a big issue.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
What do you want your man to consume?
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Yeah, fruit, fruity or chocolate. So I I'm standing in front.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Maybe put a category for big fat nuts. That's part
of that pole I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I'm like, this pole is gonna get very confusing, I think. So,
I think it's perfectly clear. So I am standing in
front of both options, big fat nuts and fruity fruity
and chocolate, trying to figure out which one, which one
(18:38):
I want to give out?
Speaker 6 (18:39):
Yeah, and so wait to be clear, this is this
for the trunk or tree or you are a participating trunk.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
No, no, no, this is for the house. This is
for the house when kids come over. Got it and
I couldn't pick, So I bought both.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Good call.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
I got the fruity, which is all the gummy, the
fruity gummies, the gummy bears, the sour back that's thebo
I went horribo. I went international, and then for the chocolate,
I went domestic. I went like the crunch bars of
Baby Roust, the one hundred grands.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
Good call, good, very solide.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
I can tell you because I've had like ten of
them to dig It is caramel and a little like
the crunchy rices and like the crunch bars in chocolate.
It's very very delicious. Matt, Can I ask you a question?
This goes this goes for everyone.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
But has anyone ever had international haribo meaning horribo candies?
But are that are sold in a different country?
Speaker 5 (19:44):
I have because of a little store called World Market. Yeah,
that has like little international food sections. And yeah, they've
definitely had some, like some different country horribos. And the
texture is a little bit different. Some of the flavor
are a little bit different. They'll like kind of put
forward like current, you know, flavors that you don't necessarily
(20:06):
see popularized here.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Current with an E or an A with a baby.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Current, Yeah, currents are good, currant. I want to try
that now. I don't like I don't like people catering
to us and you know, oh, let's give them, let's
make it extra sugary and chewy, just because these Americans
they're basically yeah.
Speaker 6 (20:29):
Well, the reason that I brought it up is because
a friend of mine recently went to France and brought
back a bunch of like basically a big bag of
different smaller bags of Haribo candies from France and they
were all really really good and like seemed a lot
more like there's bullshit in there.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Yeah, exactly. Yeah, Oh the same thing. Like I get
a lot of candies and treats and snacks too from Japan,
you know, go h Mart or Diso or something, and
it's just so it's subtle and it's not a different
nice help.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
Yeah, dude, I like to take the horribos and I
kind of rub it on my teeth and my gums
and I'm like, yeah, this is some clean horribo.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Wow, you guys, what you're talking about just sugar gummies.
They're meant for your gums, you guys.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
You guys use your little I don't know what your
little tobacco thing is when you're golfing, but you stick
it underneath your tongue or whatever. Switch that out with
some fucking clean horribo. Dude, you'll be hitting the hold
ones all day.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Horribo in your butthole.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
And yeah, that would like the butt funnel gummy bear.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
I can't believes this.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Yeah, he doesn't like sweet. So these people like international horibo,
you know, it might change this tune. So I'm uh
so I get both and I leave them in the
car by accident. All these candies, well, the gummy bears
(21:59):
are just now a gummy patty.
Speaker 6 (22:02):
Yeah for anyone who doesn't know, we're going through our
annual October heat wave.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
But the time this could not have been worse. And
it was one afternoon. I left it in there, and man,
so you know, of course I gotta I gotta taste
test some of these things. And I'm just taking out
this gummy bear, this gummy patty. Now it's just and
and I'm just taking a bite out of it like
it's like a cookie like it kind.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Of it's still good.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Yeah, And these kids aren't gonna know, Like they're not
gonna look at it when they is.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
The house of the gun member being thirteen, being the
most judgmental little fuck in the world. No, but like
you toss them in the bag, they're not gonna go
searching the bag like you just get it, you just
drop them.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
You're saying this is the perfect crime.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
They can't trace them. That that part's true.
Speaker 6 (22:57):
But there is going to be a disappointed kid at
the end of this road when they open said candy.
Even if they don't know that it was you. So
you're basically serving disappointment.
Speaker 5 (23:06):
What if there's one kid out there and his parents
are like, listen, little billy, you've been a good boy
all year long. You're gonna go to one house and
one house only, and whatever candy you get, that's what
you deserve.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Remember that house where the guy.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
Remember wait, like last month, we're going to that house
because that guy, he didn't fucking call the cops.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
He must be a good guy.
Speaker 4 (23:28):
I want you to.
Speaker 5 (23:29):
Think about that, Chris, when you're hanging out these melting candies.
Speaker 4 (23:33):
That's probably it, Chris, that's probably what is happening.
Speaker 5 (23:36):
If you're one hundred grand bar is squirting out like
a ketchup packet, you've done something wrong.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I look, I've tasted it enough of these candies to
know it's kind of they're like the defective bunch now,
but they still taste great. It's like be stock. It's
it's you know you're getting it's refurbished and.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Fair fish.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
It's still good. It's still like it's still pass a
factory warranty of whatever purpose it is intending.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
No, that's not the case.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
That's not the case here.
Speaker 6 (24:12):
This is not you're delivering a computer back to Apple,
and they're looking at it and going, yep, this is
exactly how we designed it. We will clearly so this
is the next person. Thank you for the kind exchange, sir,
That's not what's happening here.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
I'm I didn't think about little Billy and having the
chance of him only going to one house.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
One house, Chris parents m one house.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Here's my conundrum. So if I if I get more
candy now, then I personally am stuck with these gummy
bear pancakes.
Speaker 6 (24:43):
You're not here's here's here's a wonderful thing that you
can learn when you become an adult. You got to
take an l on those. Those just go right in
the trash, all of them, just right now. You fucked up.
You're taking the let's not do.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Anything rash here, Chris, you said they were delicious. Okay,
I'm throwing them away.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
But if Ris is going to bring two more big
bags of candy into his house and he knows what
his behavior is like, he cannot also have two bags
of defective candy because the end of this story is
no more bags of candy in the house.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
I have.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
No, it's not defective, it's refurbished.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
The end of this story is all four bags being
gone unless the brose goes do away right now. You
have no self control. I would have no self control.
You got to get rid of the fucked up one.
But as a kid, isn't it kind of fun?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Like when you get that weird piece of candy, like
the weird fry and it's like, ooh, this is.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Different weird fry, you know, the weird French.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Fry in the bunch, Like, oh, this one's a little overcooked,
and there's like three of them connected.
Speaker 5 (25:38):
Wow, you're the kid that everyone gave the weird French
fries too.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
No one else wanted them, Chris.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
I absolutely was. I don't know. So the refurbished candy
not a good idea.
Speaker 6 (25:52):
I mean, I'm not saying it's not a good idea.
I'm saying, dude, get the children, do the right thing.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
They can't trace it back to me.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
I understand it's a perfect crime.
Speaker 5 (26:03):
I get it's perfect crime. I this up, but you
know it's a crime. You can still turn back. You understand.
That's how murder trials work. You have an opportunity to
not do it before you do it.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
That is how murder trials work, Chris, if.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
Someone who recently sat through one, that's exactly how on
the other side of all this, if I was handing
out just king size candy bars, I would make it
very pair like here you go, kids, and just shake
it like in the air, like look, this is from me,
probably the post it note of my address, just to
know where they got it from. My name, my Venmo. Yeah,
(26:48):
and just let your venmo veno. Did you know what
they have?
Speaker 4 (26:54):
The cash app?
Speaker 6 (26:55):
How about how about we code for the water cooler,
start giving it out.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
You get a king sized candy bar.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
You know you're right, Gary.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
So in the past years we have been suggesting that
people give away our Patreon subscriptions as a gift. But
why stop there. Imagine all the kids with their tricker
tream but they've had too much candy? Are do we listeners?
(27:28):
Look in the mirror? Do you want to participate directly
with the obesity problem in America?
Speaker 3 (27:36):
No?
Speaker 1 (27:37):
No, I don't. I don't, Matt, No, sorry, I'm sure
so well, so what you do is just drop in
a little subscription to our Patreon page. Every kid would
want it. All you have to do is go to
(27:57):
water cooler. No, all you have to do, damn it
is go to patreon dot com slash water cooler and
that's how you get it.
Speaker 6 (28:08):
And then when the kid shows up at your door
and says trick or treat, you say what's your email?
And then you tell them when they get back from
trigger treating to check their email, and then you say
happy all weed, and then you close the door.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
That's right, perfect, See, I think I think that would
that would help. But either way, I'm not kidding a candy.
Yeah what Karen's not going to be creeped out by somebody?
Copd Storm says, what's your email? That before?
Speaker 2 (28:34):
After he goes fruity or chocolate.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
During all right, now select your tear? What's your email?
Or chocolate? Yeah, gosh, fruity or chocolate? Chocolate, chocolate? Gary? Yeah, chocolate,
I think but I like both, Matt, I.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
Mean overall chocolate.
Speaker 5 (28:54):
Yeah, chocolate, But you know, after you've had a lot
of chocolate, it's going to mix the fruity in there,
you know.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Fruity and yeah, yeah, I agree. Alrighty, well, I'll let
you guys know how it goes. And if my house
gets gets egged, all right, we got a lot. Look,
we got comments. We have it. This is how you
remind me to get to We didn't do comments last week,
so why don't we When don't we hit some of
those you guys? Ready, yeah, all right? And these are
(29:25):
all comments, comments delivered to us by you, the listener.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
And there are a few ways to do that.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
You can go to the aforementioned Patreon page leave some
comments there. You also, if you sign up, you get
access to add free episodes. Every episode's add free, another
episode a week, and opportunities for movie clubs and meetups.
And then also we have a Facebook page. It's free,
so it's it's kind of like the gateway of our
(29:53):
subscription service. It's a wonderful, wonderful community, my favorite place
on the internet. Just go to Facebook dot com, slash
group slash Bobo Boy Army Worldwide LLC. Answer a few questions.
Maybe we'll let you in. It's very easy. The questions
are easy. I mean some people, I will say, people
have tried. They do try to get in without answering questions.
(30:17):
I decline very quickly. I have no problem that the claim.
But if you answer the questions, it's you know.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Notice that you don't have to answer them correctly.
Speaker 6 (30:28):
Just give it the old college try and you're you're
pretty luck. Yes, thank you, all right, let's see here.
Let's go to our Patreon page. Kyle T says, did
the boys know about your surprise cruise trip?
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (30:43):
We did, great question, we did.
Speaker 6 (30:46):
Yeah, we talked about it a little bit off air,
I think not so much on air, but yeah, we
all were invited and we just sadly couldn't make it.
But we had known about it for several months because
the invite went out several months in advance and we've
been sitting on it it.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Yeah, we kept a secret.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
They can't.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
They kept a very good secret. I truly had no
idea and they just didn't care about.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
Sorry that I couldn't be there.
Speaker 6 (31:09):
Sound like we didn't care about like I I was definite.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
It was a huge able to join you. It sucked,
but you know, I know it's hard to get people
like we got. We got was it fourteen other people?
I was impressed you got that. That's a that's a feat. Yeah,
So I don't we'll do it again. We should do.
Maybe you guys want to do water should thing? Let's
(31:34):
see here, Jim Blakes's. I went through multiple iPad guys
over a few days to find the one who gave
me the biggest discount, and went back to the same
guy for the same rate to furnish a few rooms.
That's when he was shopping. I had to dodge other
guys who were up next. But by the third trip
he's practically giving me the furniture because it was zero
effort for a guaranteed sale. So yeah, you got to
(31:56):
develop a rapport with people. It's kind of like when
you go to wedding and you drop that twenty dollar
tip in right at the top to a certain bartender,
and then when you keep coming back, they'll make your
drink first, they know your drink, they'll you can It's
it's an investment.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
Yeah, you you refresh that twenty.
Speaker 6 (32:17):
Ever, it depends how long the night goes. But yeah,
sometimes for surely, But we're all I tend to drop.
I dropped the twenty, and then I just dropped like
a smaller tip kind of every time thereafter. But Chris
is right, the twenty at the top brings you to
the front of the line and like you know, they
remember who you are.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
And your drink and everything.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
Yeah, it's a good move. So you got to really
make a show when you're giving them that twenty.
Speaker 7 (32:40):
Hey, check out this twenty dollars bill, remember me, twenty.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
I wouldn't do it in such a way.
Speaker 4 (32:48):
Just get me, that's what you say, Chris, what's this?
Speaker 1 (32:51):
Get me?
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Just a line, this one right way I do it.
Speaker 4 (32:55):
But twenty bucks a great, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
That's the equivalent. That's the equivalent.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
But I will say being memorable in a good way
is a skill that I find.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
It's still struggling important.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
I find it important. I do struggle with it sometimes.
I mean it's not easy. But like, for instance, when
I went to twitch Con a couple of weekends ago,
and the only guy wearing a name tag, the only
guy wearing a name tag, and and there was this
area where I wanted to keep my stuff in the
like the media area, but my badge wouldn't let me in.
(33:38):
But I was escorted there once because I didn't know
somebody in the press and uh, and so when I left,
I looked at the secure guard and I talked to
him for a little bit. I just got to know him,
you know, we both did like, what is this thing?
Oh man? It's crazy, you know. But but but just
had a conversation. You can see what you do that
you do the one thing did the oh just did
(34:01):
the what is this? This is crazy? Okay?
Speaker 2 (34:04):
No, but just clas.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
No, just look you just talk. You kind of basically
making a friend. So then when I would come back,
I wouldn't have to scan or anything.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
It's just like, oh yeah, this guy's cool.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
Let him in.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
And that's that guy who was like, what's up with
that thing?
Speaker 1 (34:20):
What did we do it here? Yeah? We said that
was crazy? And then a ship when it was a
shift change, I'm like, I'm the I'm the.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
Guy that said what are we doing here?
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Like oh you yeah, yeah? Stuff talking about you?
Speaker 4 (34:36):
Everybody?
Speaker 1 (34:37):
Yeah, everybody's every.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Guy here the what yeah? And uh right this way sir.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
So I will I will say being memorable in those
kinds of situations. I mean, you know, I am underplaying
it a little bit, but I find it. I find
it a good skill to have. Matt and Joel, you know,
just good guys, great guys there. There's there's certain things
that kind of kind of help you, help you out
a little bit. All right, So let's go to some
(35:07):
Facebook comments here, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.
Eric Lapour said, what oh he put like a little pole.
So I'll just let me share my screen here. So
there's he put on the Facebook group. He said, pick
a sandwich, pick a sami?
Speaker 2 (35:28):
Oh shit.
Speaker 6 (35:29):
Yeah, And wasn't sandwich crown best food?
Speaker 2 (35:34):
It sure was?
Speaker 1 (35:35):
This is controversial, man, Yeah, okay, well it just wants to.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
Know what is your go to lunch box sandwich. But
the steaks are not quite so high as best.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
Food, you know, right, Okay, so we have pick a
sammie and there are nine choices. Is a Balogonian cheese,
but bloni and cheese, turkey and cheese, Italian ham and cheese,
chicken salad, egg salad, pimento cheese, ham and turkey, club
tuna salad.
Speaker 6 (36:05):
All right, now, before we weigh in on the picka
sami option, we all agree that none of us want
to eat any of the sandwiches depicted of this image.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Disagree.
Speaker 5 (36:13):
Yeah, they're all horribly drawn here, photographed they are.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
They're mostly in white. Three of them look to be
on some sort of a lot of them look to
have the crust cut off, maybe trying. No crust is
still on. But they're cutting triangles and we're seeing the
open or the cut side. So that's why it doesn't
like this crust facing us. They look pretty basic. But
there is a sandwich here that rains supreme easily, and
(36:39):
I would order it all the time for your lunchbox,
for my lunch box.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
We're not talking about any other scenario here.
Speaker 6 (36:47):
And I find it an underrated sandwich. So what you're
saying is this is a message to Jenny m No.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Who good?
Speaker 2 (37:00):
What a trap? That was good?
Speaker 1 (37:02):
Answer this? Uh, look, this is an underrated sandwich. I
think it maybe takes the most time to make.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
He's gonna say, egg salad.
Speaker 1 (37:12):
Is I I find it just rich, fulfilling, protein packed,
creamy watering just thinking about it. It could be served
served cold egg salad. Baby egg salad is underrated. Slash
(37:33):
s tear.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
As a sandwich.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Yeah, as if.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
I'm just like not with the spoon.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
I like, I guess, yeah, you could say, maybe you
could say it's the miso soup of sandwiches. I don't know, it's.
Speaker 2 (37:45):
Freaking good man shoes to fill.
Speaker 6 (37:48):
No, I've got to say maybe it's because of the
way that he picked in these, But I really feel like,
if I was going to eat a sandwich that looks
like one of these, the one I would want is
not here.
Speaker 9 (38:01):
There's saying there's no PB and J and I look
like this, then I want the first thing that comes
to my mind is where's my PB and J, because
that would take as a lunchbox sandwich anytime.
Speaker 7 (38:14):
That I The only sandwiches that I eat that look
like this are Bolognian cheese and tuna salad, and I
like them both.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Yeah, there's no spam and seaweed either. Yes, because that's
very comparable to insane.
Speaker 4 (38:33):
I guess.
Speaker 7 (38:33):
I guess the eggs egg salad sandwiches I had were
on that look like that too.
Speaker 4 (38:40):
But an Italian that's wrong.
Speaker 7 (38:41):
Bread club, wrong bread, everything else fucking wrong bread? And
what is pimento cheese? What is pimento cheese spread?
Speaker 1 (38:54):
It's freaking awesome.
Speaker 4 (38:57):
As a sandwich, like an East Coast thing or something.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
You'd like it. It's bomb Okay, all.
Speaker 5 (39:05):
Right, Now, nobody has said what my answer would be,
because the pole is asking for what is your go
to lunch box sandwich? I think the picture we got
caught up in the picture just of those choices. What
is it that you would make lunchbox I would say
more times in my life than any other turkey and cheese.
(39:27):
Granted it does not look like that, but the turkey
and cheese sandwich is definitely my go to lunchbox sandwich.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
That's what I'm making.
Speaker 1 (39:34):
How are you our food guy? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (39:39):
What's the problem with sandwich?
Speaker 6 (39:41):
I will say, as as a child, ham and cheese
was my go to ham and cheese.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Pretty good, But you know I like a grilled ham
and cheese.
Speaker 7 (39:51):
Did you get mat for a sandwich?
Speaker 2 (39:54):
Choice?
Speaker 4 (39:54):
Is that what happened?
Speaker 2 (39:55):
Austin? I can't.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
It's like a how dare you Matt? Turkey and cheese?
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (40:00):
You too stupid? What are you dumb?
Speaker 1 (40:04):
I never said that. I never said that. I never
said any of that. I just said, how are you
the food guy here? That's all nothing, nothing about your intelligence? Yeah,
it's just basic, you know. I mean, it's it's fine,
it's fine. But if you're looking for s tire, some
(40:25):
egg salad, where's killing when you need him? Kim's listening,
doing his car, driving this pond, going tag salad. These
guys are crazy, you know how He's been really animated.
Speaker 6 (40:37):
About an old guy walks by and says something doing.
He screams fun off out the window.
Speaker 1 (40:41):
Yeah anyway, okay, let's shoot, I closed the closed the tab.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
At least we hit the important issues.
Speaker 1 (40:50):
We did, so we're here to do we did all right.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
Let me speaking of important? Can we do this? How
you remimy?
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Let me read one more comment? Okay, because we've we've
done one.
Speaker 4 (41:00):
I've done one.
Speaker 1 (41:02):
Yeah, last day. I think we can come back with
all right.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
Sorry, I felt like more.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
Know you're right, we did more than what we did
one on Facebook. I want to do one more here.
Speaker 7 (41:11):
Let's see if you want to go poor sandwich choice
into no comments again.
Speaker 1 (41:17):
Jeremy Clayboss says, uh, you know everyone was doubting him
about his Carnival stock. He posted a screenshot. His Carnival
stock was about fourteen dollars a share when he got it.
It's just under thirty dollars now total gain is four
hundred eighty dollars. Damn no, man, good for you, he's
doing all right. That's some of that was probably it's
gone up, so of that's for me. Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 4 (41:39):
I guess they put profits ahead of service.
Speaker 1 (41:44):
Yeah, I mean yeah, yeah, certainly let's see here. Casey
Peters says, I need to start protecting my ears. I've
been in bands all my life and it's starting to
catch up with me. Any suggestions for ear plugs that
filter sound that won't break the bank?
Speaker 5 (42:02):
I mean Amazon, you can just type in ear plugs
and they have like a little kit that gives you
like twenty pairs of little plastic ear plugs. Some of
them have a little cable at the back, some of
them don't. That's all you need, man. I worked behind
the scenes on the doc series where I was having
to stand near a giant cannon fucking going.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
Off, and let me tell you, those ear plugs were fine.
It works.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
And when is the Civil War documentary?
Speaker 4 (42:32):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (42:32):
Sadly never, But that's okay. It's the biz, baby.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
Tis tis the biz.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
A lot of people have some good, good suggestions in
the comments too. Some people said loop eargasm's good.
Speaker 5 (42:46):
I'm telling you, dude, just fucking little plastic that's all
you need.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
Well, there's something that protected to hear, but there's some
that don't kill the fidelity, so you can still hear
everything clearly. So if you are watching oh I cl
or something like that, it's not just muffled.
Speaker 2 (43:01):
That makes more sense.
Speaker 1 (43:02):
Yeah, okay, that I get.
Speaker 2 (43:03):
I thought it was more about.
Speaker 6 (43:05):
I mean, i'd look into the newest air pods pro.
Those things are pretty customizable. You could probably do a
lot worse than that.
Speaker 1 (43:13):
I wouldn't. I wouldn't that that seems too expensive. You know,
I'm on a mash. I don't want to wear AirPods,
I mean eat. Yeah. Plus, I think those are noise
canceling too, And I don't think you want noise canceling.
I think you just need like filtering. I don't know.
Speaker 6 (43:27):
I think that there's a there settings within them now
where you can do I.
Speaker 1 (43:31):
Wouldn't be surprised. You know. I almost pulled the plug
Gary on the ear plug on the I almost pulled
the ear plug on the Meta ray bands the other day.
You you pull the plug or you almost pulled the trigger?
Shoo getting my phrases. Yeah, I almost pulled the ear
(43:52):
trigger on the Meta the Meta ray bands, the smart
How close did you come? Tried them on? Chatted about
some of the stuff, tried to get Jenny on my side,
have gotten.
Speaker 6 (44:11):
I have gotten as far as you aside from trying
to get my wife I have. I have gone and
tried them on, I have had them in my cart
I've I've gotten about as closed as you can get.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
And she's just I just still am, you know. I
I like to really do a lot of research and
contemplate for way too long when I'm buying anything. So
I'm still kind of like, do I need them? Do
I need them? I have some friends that got them
and they're pretty sweet.
Speaker 6 (44:36):
The answer is no, you don't need them. But I
understand wanting all the content I can make.
Speaker 5 (44:42):
Is this so both of you can keep up your
Pokemon Go obsessions without having to look down.
Speaker 1 (44:48):
I didn't even think about the Pokemon Go part of
it at all. Yeah, I wouldn't mind catching a Jigglepuff
with these well looking stylish like this.
Speaker 6 (44:58):
So I don't know, well, everyone else watch you catches
jiggly Puff, Chris.
Speaker 1 (45:02):
Can you imagine you are like people could be watching
me do this podcast from my point of view?
Speaker 6 (45:08):
Wow, I think your computer, Chris, I think this is
really the question is if we can figure out a
way that your view is a separate box on Zoom,
then it's a business expense.
Speaker 1 (45:22):
It would be a busy expense either way. I would
make sure you know if mat, if Matt could do
his gift card dinners that I.
Speaker 2 (45:30):
Actually, let's be clear, I do not do that.
Speaker 1 (45:34):
Okay, first I've heard of it. All right, Well, anyway,
those are comments everybody, thanks for writing, and we'll read
you want to get this is how you remind me going.
So I will play the intro and Matt you get
to set it up.
Speaker 2 (45:49):
I sure am.
Speaker 4 (46:11):
Good story, all right?
Speaker 7 (46:14):
Sot with breaking and them wrong.
Speaker 1 (46:21):
I mean, you know you only do like some of
the lyrics. You can't do them all.
Speaker 2 (46:26):
We're gonna get banned from YouTube. Right?
Speaker 7 (46:30):
Does that sound just like Nickelback? That's why I'm so
good this segment.
Speaker 5 (46:37):
This segment exists because we are encouraging our fans to
dive into the archives find some great loss moments. Let's
bring them back to the forefront. This one was submitted
by Ryan Roberts. It's from an episode in February of

remember we're talking about. Seriously, I want to know what
the hell I was doing. All right, here we go.
All right, here's the clip. The place does look great now. Actually,
the walls are covered in wood slats from palettes.
Speaker 5 (47:25):
All.
Speaker 1 (47:25):
Yeah, this is all. This is all reclaimed wood.
Speaker 7 (47:28):
Everything in this room is pretty much reclaimed. Amount of
money I put into this is probably under three hundred dollars.
Speaker 2 (47:36):
Who saved two You adopted all this wood.

so long, that so many since.

hands anymore. No, but it's good to go back to
that first poop.
Speaker 2 (48:27):
Yeah, thanks Ryan, Thanks Ryan.
Speaker 1 (48:29):
You always remember the first poop on the podcast.
Speaker 7 (48:32):

Speaker 2 (48:39):
Wouldn't it be gra if you took a ship right then?
Speaker 4 (48:42):

Stood until that moment.
Speaker 1 (48:47):
Yeah, you never forget though the first the first ship. Yeah, remember.

Speaker 1 (48:53):
Yeah, it was like I'll never forget that episode. Was
that cereal cereal pops? Yeah? All right, Well, anyway, thank
you to Ryan Roberts for submitting that clip. If anybody
else wants to submit clips, I mean, please just email
Matt and.
Speaker 2 (49:11):
Don't email me. Put it in our Facebook group.
Speaker 1 (49:14):
And most of them which you want to hear. Yeah,
but thank you Matt for cutting that too, very diligent. Well, Matt,
do you still like accept every friend request you get?
Speaker 5 (49:24):
I gotta stop doing that. I gotta stop doing that.
I look to see the mutual friends, let's put it
that way.
Speaker 4 (49:30):
That helps.
Speaker 2 (49:31):
You're always every once in a while they have one
mutual friend. It's Dawson. So I'm like, you don't know
your mine?
Speaker 1 (49:37):
Like every time I get a friend request from somebody
I don't know personally you Yeah, you or Dawson are
there are the connection?
Speaker 2 (49:44):
I slowed it down.
Speaker 1 (49:47):
Yeah, you don't have to, It's okay, you know, No,
judgment here. But uh, all right, look we got we
got a lot of stuff to get into next episode.
I do have a bust and makes me feel good,
you know, I'll do a quick one. I'll do a
quick one here. Just do a real quick one. Blessing
makes me feel good. All right? Once again, this is
(50:08):
a journal from my road trip across the country. It's
uh fifteen other guys. We took a school bus in
the year two thousand and six.
Speaker 5 (50:16):
By the way, to say this is across the country
is absolutely under selling what you guys have managed to
do because you are crisscrossing back and forth in a
completely nonsensical manner. Fans are still confused. If you're confused
if it was empty or end, North Dakota or Maryland.
A lot of people think it was not North Dakota.
(50:38):
Can you you know, can't get front all these these
rumors here.
Speaker 1 (50:41):
I can't. So it was North Dakota. So what I'm
this is, I want to open this part of the second.
I realized that a lot of my journaling was not
done in real time, so I would some of it was.
And then when we're on the bus for hours.
Speaker 2 (50:56):
This twenty segments into this.
Speaker 1 (50:58):
Because I just realized when we were on the bus
for hours on end, I didn't put dates. I didn't
I didn't log them with dates. So we were on
the bus, I realized, I if I had a memory,
I would just start a new entry of a memory
that happened. So it's gonna be it's gonna be a little,
a little all over the place, because like, I'm so wait.
Speaker 5 (51:20):
A minute, now, can I just ask another really practical
question here? Were you still writing on the pages in
order or would you just open to a blank page,
write a random thought, close the book.
Speaker 1 (51:34):
That's the one. That one, the second one? Yes, sure, anarchy,
but I would write what state or city I was
in in that memory.
Speaker 5 (51:47):
So I would love this is like some like indie
movie shit. I would love to be watching a movie
for like ninety minutes and be like, well, this is
obviously in a sequential order, and then find out the
minutes into it that in fact, it's all based on
random memories.
Speaker 2 (52:04):
And then the rest of.
Speaker 5 (52:04):
The the rewatch would be incredible.
Speaker 1 (52:09):
Yeah, and then there'd be fans who put it in
real order eventually. Yeah. Just look, I mean Christopher Nolan
did it. I can do it. Yeah, but I basically
am writing this journal like a Chrys Nolan movie.
Speaker 2 (52:19):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (52:20):
All right, So Lowell, Massachusetts. So only a few of
us go because not everybody wanted to go to the
Red Sox game. So a few that did went and
the other the other half of the group stayed in
New York City. Okay, and so we go to the
game and our bus breaks down. So wait, you guys
(52:44):
have taken the bus.
Speaker 6 (52:45):
What percentage of guys are in Lowell versus New York City?
Speaker 1 (52:50):
Sixty sixty percent are in Lowell? Or were? We're in Boston?
And then the everyone else is just riding skateboards around
Times Square.
Speaker 6 (53:00):
So where exactly do you park a bus in downtown Boston?
Speaker 2 (53:04):
There are places?
Speaker 1 (53:05):
Yeah, I mean you just it's a curb, I mean,
you know whatever, Yeah, as long as there's no there's
no no standing science. So our bus breaks down, we
get it towed to a repair shop and lull. But
it's on the weekend, and these it's like a Friday,
so they're about to start the weekend. And oh when
we end up spending the night because after the game
(53:29):
and now we get we get towed, it's Friday night.
Speaker 2 (53:31):
That the guys are in New York.
Speaker 1 (53:33):
They they basically just pulled an all night or and
they were like, please come get us. We have nowhere
to go. So the lol guys like, we're not going
to fix it till Monday because it's the weekend. But
I'm like, but you can fix it now, Like yeah,
we could, but we just it's the weekend. We want
we want to get started with our lives, and we're
just like, please, we have to get our friends in
(53:54):
New York right now. They have nowhere to stay. We
have like all their stuff with us and they just
have skateboards.
Speaker 7 (54:01):
Are they're gonna think twice next time they get the
opportunity to go to Lowell.
Speaker 6 (54:06):
So and you guys are young, so I assume there's
no like, can we we can make it worth your while.
This is just gonna purely be on like their kindness right.
Speaker 1 (54:14):
Right it is. And we here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (54:16):
No, no wedding bartender exchange. No, well that's that, this
is what's happening.
Speaker 1 (54:21):
No. I mean, yeah, we're gonna pay them. We were
gonna pay them. We're talking about financially, Matt. Then yeah,
there's gonna be in exchange for for that but there's not.
Speaker 6 (54:28):
There's no like you know, and we'll throw three hundred
on top of that if you see.
Speaker 1 (54:32):
Yeah, of course there is. We're yeah, okay, well yeah,
we're We're very good about that. So but as I said,
and I'm gonna we're gonna bookend this year with a look,
be memorable, be friendly, be personable, because we ended up
like I remember talking to these guys and they were
like big dudes, and you know, I just got down
(54:52):
on their level by standing up on a ladder. No,
it was I got down the Sorry, Matt, I just
had to get out.
Speaker 5 (55:02):
I was just picturing you in line with the bouncers again, man,
just chatting with the guys being like, what's up with
that thing?
Speaker 6 (55:07):
It's like gos is crazy, right, bus is broken?
Speaker 2 (55:10):
Man, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (55:13):
Yeah, and uh and we end up talking and then
I kind of okay. My friends say it was like
a movie, like they just heard heroic music coming. I'm like, guys,
we need to do this. Not for America, but it
was kind of in that sense, like we've got to
get our friends. They're you know, they're alone. I know
you can do this, can you will you? And like,
(55:34):
you know, we just lock lock hands and they go, yeah,
I mean that's the movie version of what happened, but I.
Speaker 2 (55:39):
Basically felt like it.
Speaker 1 (55:41):
Yeah, basically, I basically of the you know, eight or
nine of us that were there, I convinced them to
to fix our bus and stay a little longer, which
they they did, and it all worked out. So this
is my this is my recounting of that Lowell The
place is called Lowell Fleet. It's amazing how far sheer,
(56:02):
honesty and gut feelings can get you. I went out
on a limb against everyone and pulled through and got
our alternator fixed a day earlier.
Speaker 5 (56:14):
Wow, So you're saying against everyone, So you were like.
Speaker 2 (56:19):
These guys and they were friends.
Speaker 4 (56:20):
You're like, fuck those guys, man.
Speaker 6 (56:22):
That's right, Probably one of the most Can I suggest
you know, a little edit for the future. I mean,
the way you were telling the story. If it wasn't
getting fixed till Monday, you gotta fix two days earlier.
Speaker 1 (56:31):
That's right. Probably one of the most eye opening and
triumphant experiences I've ever had. And but the people in
Lowell Fleet have to be bipolar. One second, he's offering
to let me borrow his car to drive to New
York and pick up our friends. The next second, he's
questioning my college intelligence college quotes.
Speaker 2 (56:51):
He sounds like a swift negotiator.
Speaker 1 (56:55):
Then they fixed the alternator in a day to help
us out. Then he tells us he wants to be
as far away from as possible from us. Then he
gives us a shirt to remember them by. Then his
son steals our license plate in our football. How old
(57:17):
was the sun? I don't remember at the end, so,
oh my god, it was. It was quite the roller coaster.
So there you go.
Speaker 4 (57:27):
It's pretty.
Speaker 1 (57:33):
I mean, the license plate.
Speaker 6 (57:34):
I guess I can understand if you like collect every
state license plate or something, and California hasn't rolled through.
Speaker 1 (57:39):
But like the football, Jesus, you're just a thief. You
can't take our football. That's up.
Speaker 4 (57:44):
Yeah, yeah, that is messed up, dude.
Speaker 1 (57:46):
So anyway, but shout out to a little fleet for
helping us out that day. All right, that will do
for this episode of article. When we go around the horn,
get our plugs, and we'll get started with Patron. We'll
start over there in Austin, Texas.

All the way in Transylvania, Texas, it's Matt Fondali brother,
and then all the way from his sarcophagus, it's Garrie Smith,
(01:08):
and then Leslie but not leastle from.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
The tomb of Ancient Doom. It's Mike Dawson.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
One two, three, four vibe. I'm doing the count.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
That's actually really good.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
That was very good. Yeah, Hey guys, happy Fondalween. It
is the week of Fondalween. We got Friday.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Celebrating over there raging.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah, Matt, what what's going on with your yard look like?
Speaker 5 (01:49):
Yeah, our front yard looks a little sadder than it
should because a giant storm blew through the last couple
of nights. It just completely fucked up everything that I
put out there. So the the spirit woman who's hanging
from the tree, her wig is slightly adjusted. The ghosts
hanging from the raptors are instead of with their arms up,
they're completely soaked and drenched in the electricals. Just kind
(02:11):
of like fizzing out a little bit. I had this
like campfire scene that has just been completely flooded. And then,
to make matters worse, my bat monster sign it lifted
out of the out of the mud, and when I
went to go put it back in, I pushed down
too hard and I snapped one of the wings off.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
Damn it. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
So it's rough out front, but inside the house is
as spooky as ever we have our Halloween village. It
took us almost an entire week to put out, just
on our little display table. We had some friends over
this past weekend because we realized that we were the
only people who were seeing this and that was kind
of sad. So we were like, let's invite friends over
(02:55):
so that they could also see our decorations.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Did you tell them that it was a viewing party
for your decorations?
Speaker 2 (03:00):
We had them invite their dogs. So it was a
dog like a dog Halloween party.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Aura, yeah, dog duration.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Yeah, so we had six dogs running around in our backyard.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
In the month.
Speaker 6 (03:10):
Did you just invite the dogs over to play or
did you tell these people who you were inviting that
there was like a joint purpose of like them viewing
your decoration.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
I mean it was implied. We've been talking talking a
big game all month. You know you should come by, Yeah,
you should check it out.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
And then we're like, no, you're coming over? What we
do it at our place?
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Exactly, No, no, no, no, you don't understand.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
I will also say on the horror movie front, not
been a particularly strong eear for horror. That's really Kalin's
not here to back me up here. But usually by
this time in the month, I feel like I've watched
thirty movies or so, and I think I'm at like
seventeen with a couple that I just stopped and started,
you know, or started and then stopped to be more accurate.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Well, okay, I'm not that surprising because my strategy for streaming
movies when it's finally my turn to pick a movie
for the night, which isn't it's not a common night
that we have where I can sit down with Jenny
and say, hey, let's watch Yeah, let's you know, I'm
(04:20):
feeling love, I'm feeling romance. Yeah, let's put on some Honora.
So I got to pick the movie the other night.
And so my strategy has been I go on to
Rotten Tomatoes and I just filter out certified fresh movies
because I don't have time for anything less than certified
(04:40):
than certified fresh. It I need something, I need something
of quality because my time is precious, it is very
valuable for me. So I need something that is certified fresh.
And I do that. I filter out all the even
just the freshes. I felt that.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Of course I found out that's not certified. Dude, Yeah,
that hasn't been certified.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I need I need these things to be certified or
get back, and so I filter them out. And I
will say about thirty five tot of the movies that
are certified Fresh are horror movies from the last five months.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
And I'm just scrolling through these like, is there anything
else coming out?
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Why? What are these movies?
Speaker 6 (05:31):
So I was surprised to hear you say, Matt, that
it was a slow year for horror because I thought
based on Chris has told that kind of anecdote before,
and Kaylin, you know, has been saying it's a huge year,
and that's kind of all this is making money. So
is it possible that they're just like still too recent
and you don't have access to them yet.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
I mean, I like that you're implying that I only
watched movies for free. That's good, it's true, so it's
not wrong.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
I wasn't I wasn't meant to be a bit I know,
I know.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
I mean, there have been some movies that have crossed over,
They've become cultural phenomenons, if you will. Uh. Sinners and
Weapons are probably the two primary examples. Twenty eight years
Later wasn't a huge enough hit, but that was obviously
pretty recent. So there are movies like that. But what
I'm talking about are the Shutter Kalin classics, which are like, yeah, exactly,
(06:27):
and usually you know, midway through the month, I kind
of hear for a list of like all of these
randoms titles that I've never heard of that are absolutely
worth a watch, and this year, I don't know, I've
tried some of them out. They're just there's not so
many good ones this year, dass. You're a big horror guy.
You watch they right now.
Speaker 7 (06:42):
I think Weapons was the only really good one this year. Honestly,
I didn't like Sinners, Yeah I wasn't.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I wasn't a big fan of that either. Weapons was good.
Speaker 7 (06:53):
And The Conjuring last, right, that was a pile of
dog crawd up.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Yeah that was And that was a conjuring movie.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
And you're like, really, the conjuring universe, that's right, So
that's conjuring, that's insidious.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
That the nun, the noun Annabelle, that's right.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Yeah, it was a there's a hole.
Speaker 7 (07:17):
There's a Sydney Sweeney horror where she plays a nun.
And I think it's called immaculate.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
It is crazy.
Speaker 7 (07:25):
And if I believe, I got seventy five percent of
the way through it, and I'm like, I don't, I don't.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
I just don't care anymore.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Oh but the ending, dude, you gotta watch the.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Watch it.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
You don't even need to rewatch the whole movie. Just
wherever you're at it, just finish it. You will be
grateful you did. I promise you that I will. That
movie will be over and you'll be like fuck yeah, dude, I'm.
Speaker 6 (07:47):
Telling you exactly how I would feel after it was
over to Yeah, I'm.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
With you, I'm with you. Gary, all right? Well sorry,
no k on a tok horror movie. So at Matt
is really this isn't your this isn't your audience, my man?
I know as he's wearing his Camp Crystal Lake shirt.
What if we do the opposite?
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Talked about musical comedies? What's what are you talking about?
Speaker 6 (08:14):
I mean, no horror, but maybe we could do a
little comedy. You guys want to hear a joke?
Speaker 4 (08:19):
Oh? Perfect, I would love that.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
So only if it's in the corner.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
I heard. Yeah, So Kal's on here, so we're having
we're having a sub and he will be joining us
off the bench. I hear, I hear them rehearsing. There
is there is an attempt at this being good. Is
the fact that Okay, garys I seek.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
To the stage Ghostbusters T shirt love.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
It, jor walk into Okay, he doesn't have headphones on,
so you can't hear me greet him. Oh what there is? Hey,
Garrett Junior?
Speaker 8 (08:53):
What you call two?
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Which is that live together?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Oh? I don't know that's good though? What broom.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
That was good.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Joke, so good good yeah.
Speaker 8 (09:17):
G j.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Yeah, that was that was I mean clean, kept it clean. Ya.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
I was wing for a dick joke. I was a
dick joke.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Yeah, a joke last time, so I was. I was
ready for it.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
There are two things at play here.
Speaker 6 (09:36):
His mother wasn't wild about the fact that he told
that joke, which I can understand.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I seemed to think. I personally was cool with it.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
I thought it was amazing, perhaps his finest moment.
Speaker 6 (09:49):
So since that has happened, there has been a book
fair at his school and he has purchased several joke
books and he's been reading them, so he's pulling material
I think from there.
Speaker 5 (09:59):
Is he becoming a Halloween kid? Does he like Halloween?
Is he excited at the prospect? Is he watching a
kid Halloween specials of his favorite shows.
Speaker 6 (10:10):
Not as an exclusive intake of his media diet the
way the Fundoween household does it.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
But yes, absolutely.
Speaker 6 (10:17):
And I don't know if this phenomenon existed for you
when you were a kid, Matt. It did not for
me when I was a kid. But there is a
whole world of what's called a trunk retreat. Are you
aware of these?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
I'm aware of it.
Speaker 5 (10:30):
I feel like that was a post COVID or mid
COVID creation, or at least that's when it kind of exploded.
Speaker 6 (10:36):
That could That totally makes sense and it seems to
have stuck around though. So he has, like he's been
to on at least two and probably three of those
so far this year.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I went to my first one yesterday. I mean, they're great,
it's it's cute, but I'll bring Benue go.
Speaker 6 (10:53):
Yeah, good call. But yeah, if you go to like
all the ones in your communit are you like he's
been in full Halloween mode for ten days already.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Yeah, all right, Well, I do want to talk about
the truck retreats in just but first, speaking of books
and dick jokes. So I went to the library the
other day.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Can't wait to see where this is going. We got
the books, we got the books born.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
So I'm watching the Boy and Jenn has to go
to work and she just goes, hey, the library is
doing like a little story time for toddlers. Why don't
you bring Bennie over and then and maybe you know,
check out some books or something to bring them home
(11:45):
and return these ones, and I said, okay, So I
bring him to the storytime. It's a blast, the kids
are singing, have fun. And then I go to the
I don't have a library card, so I go and
I register from when I go, how old you have
to be in there? Like, there's no aage limit. So
I've given them the form that I've written. Now I
was like, wait, so he can get one. I put
(12:06):
Benny and they're like yeah. So I'm like, I take
I take the form back and I cross out all
of my names and I suben Benny's name and he
gets his first library card. It's very cute. He's so excited.
So we we go and get a few kids books.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
They have, like you know those picture books just bes
not with you.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
No, this is this is just maybe in a dope Dad,
Now this.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Was a lie.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
You say kid books?
Speaker 5 (12:32):
Are we talking like Hunger Games, Lord of the Flies.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Young Adult Man?
Speaker 4 (12:38):
Yeah, there are kids in that.
Speaker 7 (12:41):
Those are the books that Benny is checking out. He's yeah,
he's right in the middle of a fucking bridge to
ter a bit.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
That's that's terrible, terrible ending. So that one down.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Yeah, maybe I'll have to stop him at least two
thirds in, so we get a few picks.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
He ever want to watch the movie? Kids tell him,
don't watch that. It's not for kids.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Oh man, advertising, I got some letters to write. So
we're getting books and I get one that's about tools.
It's just called like my Toolbox. It's very it's just
each page is just it's just as the name of
a tool. And I think he's going to need to
learn this stuff. So we check that out and and
(13:26):
then I bring it home and I'm it's before naptime
and I'm sitting and I'm reading it to me. He's
sitting on my lap. It's a very beautiful moment. I'm
using my soft voice to get them calm. The sound
machine's going and he's starting to he's starting to dip
a little bit. And I'm reading and I go, okay,
turn the page. This is a screwdriver. It's for twisting
in screws. And I go, oh, that's nice. And then
(13:50):
I go to the next page. This is a wrench
and then and then you look wrenching for for wrenching,
that's what you think it would say. Dos. But so
now he's starting to pass out. He's starting he's you know,
it's naptime. He's starting to go and I said, so
this is the wrench for wrenching, but it also says
(14:10):
it also turns the big fat nuts.
Speaker 8 (14:16):
And I lose my mind. And now I'm just cackling for.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Ten minutes. I'll say time, it's bitter, really like one
to one and a half minutes.
Speaker 6 (14:29):
One and a half minutes is a long time, cry,
laughing cry.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Laughing, like I can't continue.
Speaker 8 (14:35):
I'm just crying, laughing to the sky, like what are
you hold on?
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I'm very sure silently to try to keep the kid.
I couldn't.
Speaker 5 (14:46):
I just.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
So you are just.
Speaker 6 (14:49):
Waking your child up, and just he has no context
for what's going on.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I couldn't believe it. And I'm like, okay, this, what
are you doing here? That that's an Easter egg for
for the dope dads. But so I'm laughing. And then
eventually he gets tired again, put him down, and then
that night when he's finally he is asleep, the books
(15:15):
still in his room. I'm trying to tell John McK
chin this book that I read, Penny, it's I was
laughing because it was telling me about about what a
wrench does, and it says, returning the what is it,
the big nut, the big fat nuts? And then she's like,
there's no way it said it, Like I'm pretty sure
it said big fat nuts. It's like no, no, no,
(15:37):
no no. She's like, that is in your head, child,
like it said big fat nuts. So was that picture
so ready? Because you sent it to her the next morning.
That was why I took it. I took this morning
and I texted it to him like I told you,
(16:00):
fat nuts.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
Your neighbors are like, what's happening next door? He just
keeps shouting big fat nuts.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Why did you respond to that?
Speaker 2 (16:10):
The cry cry, laughing faces.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
I mean no, it was appropriate because yeah, but anyway,
so you're talking about you're talking about books and dick jokes,
and I found I found a pretty good one, so okay, Yeah,
so I went, I went trunk or treating and the
dad tax is in full effect.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
I am my.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Belly is just full of candy bush right now, you guys, It's.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
It's a real problem. It's going.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
It's a real problem.
Speaker 6 (16:33):
I have like been so far, I've resisted, but like
eventually I will have that first piece and then it's
on because this kid gets way more candy than he
should ever. Yeah, I mean it's three trunk er treats already.
Each one we left with a full bag of candy.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
Like.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Nobody is giving the little kid's credit, but they are
providing for their family when they go out to the treat,
there are gathering and so I'm eating a bunch, but
I have a kind of have a conundrum with the
candy I'm giving out.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
So I went a cann dundrum.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
I tried to No, that's good. I like it. It's
Fonda Wayne manank.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
You perfect slider slide. I appreciate.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
So I went to the store to get candy, and
I it's always the big questions, the same thing when
I go to yogurt Land. It's the same thing when
I go to ice cream shops. I'm sure Matt deals
with this too. My going fruity or chocolate? What are
we gonna do for them deserts or them candies? Fruit
(17:41):
or chocolate, Just depending on what you're feeling.
Speaker 5 (17:45):
It sounds like a fucking Facebook pool if ever I've
heard one.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
Yeah, we have to we have to praise it fruity
or chocolate, because I feel like that could be misinterpreted.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
The pool is what the pool is gary chocolate.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
That is a big issue.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
What do you want your man to consume?
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Yeah, fruit, fruity or chocolate. So I I'm standing in front.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Maybe put a category for big fat nuts. That's part
of that pole I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I'm like, this pole is gonna get very confusing, I think. So,
I think it's perfectly clear. So I am standing in
front of both options, big fat nuts and fruity fruity
and chocolate, trying to figure out which one, which one
(18:38):
I want to give out?
Speaker 6 (18:39):
Yeah, and so wait to be clear, this is this
for the trunk or tree or you are a participating trunk.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
No, no, no, this is for the house. This is
for the house when kids come over. Got it and
I couldn't pick, So I bought both.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Good call.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
I got the fruity, which is all the gummy, the
fruity gummies, the gummy bears, the sour back that's thebo
I went horribo. I went international, and then for the chocolate,
I went domestic. I went like the crunch bars of
Baby Roust, the one hundred grands.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
Good call, good, very solide.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
I can tell you because I've had like ten of
them to dig It is caramel and a little like
the crunchy rices and like the crunch bars in chocolate.
It's very very delicious. Matt, Can I ask you a question?
This goes this goes for everyone.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
But has anyone ever had international haribo meaning horribo candies?
But are that are sold in a different country?
Speaker 5 (19:44):
I have because of a little store called World Market. Yeah,
that has like little international food sections. And yeah, they've
definitely had some, like some different country horribos. And the
texture is a little bit different. Some of the flavor
are a little bit different. They'll like kind of put
forward like current, you know, flavors that you don't necessarily
(20:06):
see popularized here.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Current with an E or an A with a baby.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Current, Yeah, currents are good, currant. I want to try
that now. I don't like I don't like people catering
to us and you know, oh, let's give them, let's
make it extra sugary and chewy, just because these Americans
they're basically yeah.
Speaker 6 (20:29):
Well, the reason that I brought it up is because
a friend of mine recently went to France and brought
back a bunch of like basically a big bag of
different smaller bags of Haribo candies from France and they
were all really really good and like seemed a lot
more like there's bullshit in there.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Yeah, exactly. Yeah, Oh the same thing. Like I get
a lot of candies and treats and snacks too from Japan,
you know, go h Mart or Diso or something, and
it's just so it's subtle and it's not a different
nice help.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
Yeah, dude, I like to take the horribos and I
kind of rub it on my teeth and my gums
and I'm like, yeah, this is some clean horribo.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Wow, you guys, what you're talking about just sugar gummies.
They're meant for your gums, you guys.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
You guys use your little I don't know what your
little tobacco thing is when you're golfing, but you stick
it underneath your tongue or whatever. Switch that out with
some fucking clean horribo. Dude, you'll be hitting the hold
ones all day.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Horribo in your butthole.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
And yeah, that would like the butt funnel gummy bear.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
I can't believes this.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Yeah, he doesn't like sweet. So these people like international horibo,
you know, it might change this tune. So I'm uh
so I get both and I leave them in the
car by accident. All these candies, well, the gummy bears
(21:59):
are just now a gummy patty.
Speaker 6 (22:02):
Yeah for anyone who doesn't know, we're going through our
annual October heat wave.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
But the time this could not have been worse. And
it was one afternoon. I left it in there, and man,
so you know, of course I gotta I gotta taste
test some of these things. And I'm just taking out
this gummy bear, this gummy patty. Now it's just and
and I'm just taking a bite out of it like
it's like a cookie like it kind.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Of it's still good.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Yeah, And these kids aren't gonna know, Like they're not
gonna look at it when they is.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
The house of the gun member being thirteen, being the
most judgmental little fuck in the world. No, but like
you toss them in the bag, they're not gonna go
searching the bag like you just get it, you just
drop them.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
You're saying this is the perfect crime.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
They can't trace them. That that part's true.
Speaker 6 (22:57):
But there is going to be a disappointed kid at
the end of this road when they open said candy.
Even if they don't know that it was you. So
you're basically serving disappointment.
Speaker 5 (23:06):
What if there's one kid out there and his parents
are like, listen, little billy, you've been a good boy
all year long. You're gonna go to one house and
one house only, and whatever candy you get, that's what
you deserve.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Remember that house where the guy.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
Remember wait, like last month, we're going to that house
because that guy, he didn't fucking call the cops.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
He must be a good guy.
Speaker 4 (23:28):
I want you to.
Speaker 5 (23:29):
Think about that, Chris, when you're hanging out these melting candies.
Speaker 4 (23:33):
That's probably it, Chris, that's probably what is happening.
Speaker 5 (23:36):
If you're one hundred grand bar is squirting out like
a ketchup packet, you've done something wrong.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I look, I've tasted it enough of these candies to
know it's kind of they're like the defective bunch now,
but they still taste great. It's like be stock. It's
it's you know you're getting it's refurbished and.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Fair fish.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
It's still good. It's still like it's still pass a
factory warranty of whatever purpose it is intending.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
No, that's not the case.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
That's not the case here.
Speaker 6 (24:12):
This is not you're delivering a computer back to Apple,
and they're looking at it and going, yep, this is
exactly how we designed it. We will clearly so this
is the next person. Thank you for the kind exchange, sir,
That's not what's happening here.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
I'm I didn't think about little Billy and having the
chance of him only going to one house.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
One house, Chris parents m one house.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Here's my conundrum. So if I if I get more
candy now, then I personally am stuck with these gummy
bear pancakes.
Speaker 6 (24:43):
You're not here's here's here's a wonderful thing that you
can learn when you become an adult. You got to
take an l on those. Those just go right in
the trash, all of them, just right now. You fucked up.
You're taking the let's not do.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Anything rash here, Chris, you said they were delicious. Okay,
I'm throwing them away.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
But if Ris is going to bring two more big
bags of candy into his house and he knows what
his behavior is like, he cannot also have two bags
of defective candy because the end of this story is
no more bags of candy in the house.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
I have.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
No, it's not defective, it's refurbished.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
The end of this story is all four bags being
gone unless the brose goes do away right now. You
have no self control. I would have no self control.
You got to get rid of the fucked up one.
But as a kid, isn't it kind of fun?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Like when you get that weird piece of candy, like
the weird fry and it's like, ooh, this is.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Different weird fry, you know, the weird French.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Fry in the bunch, Like, oh, this one's a little overcooked,
and there's like three of them connected.
Speaker 5 (25:38):
Wow, you're the kid that everyone gave the weird French
fries too.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
No one else wanted them, Chris.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
I absolutely was. I don't know. So the refurbished candy
not a good idea.
Speaker 6 (25:52):
I mean, I'm not saying it's not a good idea.
I'm saying, dude, get the children, do the right thing.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
They can't trace it back to me.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
I understand it's a perfect crime.
Speaker 5 (26:03):
I get it's perfect crime. I this up, but you
know it's a crime. You can still turn back. You understand.
That's how murder trials work. You have an opportunity to
not do it before you do it.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
That is how murder trials work, Chris, if.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
Someone who recently sat through one, that's exactly how on
the other side of all this, if I was handing
out just king size candy bars, I would make it
very pair like here you go, kids, and just shake
it like in the air, like look, this is from me,
probably the post it note of my address, just to
know where they got it from. My name, my Venmo. Yeah,
(26:48):
and just let your venmo veno. Did you know what
they have?
Speaker 4 (26:54):
The cash app?
Speaker 6 (26:55):
How about how about we code for the water cooler,
start giving it out.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
You get a king sized candy bar.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
You know you're right, Gary.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
So in the past years we have been suggesting that
people give away our Patreon subscriptions as a gift. But
why stop there. Imagine all the kids with their tricker
tream but they've had too much candy? Are do we listeners?
(27:28):
Look in the mirror? Do you want to participate directly
with the obesity problem in America?
Speaker 3 (27:36):
No?
Speaker 1 (27:37):
No, I don't. I don't, Matt, No, sorry, I'm sure
so well, so what you do is just drop in
a little subscription to our Patreon page. Every kid would
want it. All you have to do is go to
(27:57):
water cooler. No, all you have to do, damn it
is go to patreon dot com slash water cooler and
that's how you get it.
Speaker 6 (28:08):
And then when the kid shows up at your door
and says trick or treat, you say what's your email?
And then you tell them when they get back from
trigger treating to check their email, and then you say
happy all weed, and then you close the door.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
That's right, perfect, See, I think I think that would
that would help. But either way, I'm not kidding a candy.
Yeah what Karen's not going to be creeped out by somebody?
Copd Storm says, what's your email? That before?
Speaker 2 (28:34):
After he goes fruity or chocolate.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
During all right, now select your tear? What's your email?
Or chocolate? Yeah, gosh, fruity or chocolate? Chocolate, chocolate? Gary? Yeah, chocolate,
I think but I like both, Matt, I.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
Mean overall chocolate.
Speaker 5 (28:54):
Yeah, chocolate, But you know, after you've had a lot
of chocolate, it's going to mix the fruity in there,
you know.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Fruity and yeah, yeah, I agree. Alrighty, well, I'll let

Maybe we'll let you in. It's very easy. The questions

have tried. They do try to get in without answering questions.
(30:17):
I decline very quickly. I have no problem that the claim.
But if you answer the questions, it's you know.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Notice that you don't have to answer them correctly.
Speaker 6 (30:28):
Just give it the old college try and you're you're
pretty luck. Yes, thank you, all right, let's see here.
Let's go to our Patreon page. Kyle T says, did
the boys know about your surprise cruise trip?
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (30:43):
We did, great question, we did.
Speaker 6 (30:46):
Yeah, we talked about it a little bit off air,
I think not so much on air, but yeah, we
all were invited and we just sadly couldn't make it.
But we had known about it for several months because
the invite went out several months in advance and we've
been sitting on it it.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Yeah, we kept a secret.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
They can't.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
They kept a very good secret. I truly had no
idea and they just didn't care about.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
Sorry that I couldn't be there.
Speaker 6 (31:09):
Sound like we didn't care about like I I was definite.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
It was a huge able to join you. It sucked,
but you know, I know it's hard to get people
like we got. We got was it fourteen other people?
I was impressed you got that. That's a that's a feat. Yeah,
So I don't we'll do it again. We should do.
Maybe you guys want to do water should thing? Let's
(31:34):
see here, Jim Blakes's. I went through multiple iPad guys
over a few days to find the one who gave
me the biggest discount, and went back to the same
guy for the same rate to furnish a few rooms.
That's when he was shopping. I had to dodge other
guys who were up next. But by the third trip
he's practically giving me the furniture because it was zero
effort for a guaranteed sale. So yeah, you got to
(31:56):
develop a rapport with people. It's kind of like when
you go to wedding and you drop that twenty dollar
tip in right at the top to a certain bartender,
and then when you keep coming back, they'll make your
drink first, they know your drink, they'll you can It's
it's an investment.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
Yeah, you you refresh that twenty.
Speaker 6 (32:17):
Ever, it depends how long the night goes. But yeah,
sometimes for surely, But we're all I tend to drop.
I dropped the twenty, and then I just dropped like
a smaller tip kind of every time thereafter. But Chris
is right, the twenty at the top brings you to
the front of the line and like you know, they
remember who you are.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
And your drink and everything.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
Yeah, it's a good move. So you got to really
make a show when you're giving them that twenty.
Speaker 7 (32:40):
Hey, check out this twenty dollars bill, remember me, twenty.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
I wouldn't do it in such a way.
Speaker 4 (32:48):
Just get me, that's what you say, Chris, what's this?
Speaker 1 (32:51):
Get me?
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Just a line, this one right way I do it.
Speaker 4 (32:55):
But twenty bucks a great, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
That's the equivalent. That's the equivalent.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
But I will say being memorable in a good way
is a skill that I find.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
It's still struggling important.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
I find it important. I do struggle with it sometimes.
I mean it's not easy. But like, for instance, when
I went to twitch Con a couple of weekends ago,
and the only guy wearing a name tag, the only
guy wearing a name tag, and and there was this
area where I wanted to keep my stuff in the
like the media area, but my badge wouldn't let me in.
(33:38):
But I was escorted there once because I didn't know
somebody in the press and uh, and so when I left,
I looked at the secure guard and I talked to
him for a little bit. I just got to know him,
you know, we both did like, what is this thing?
Oh man? It's crazy, you know. But but but just
had a conversation. You can see what you do that
you do the one thing did the oh just did
(34:01):
the what is this? This is crazy? Okay?
Speaker 2 (34:04):
No, but just clas.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
No, just look you just talk. You kind of basically
making a friend. So then when I would come back,
I wouldn't have to scan or anything.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
It's just like, oh yeah, this guy's cool.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
Let him in.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
And that's that guy who was like, what's up with
that thing?
Speaker 1 (34:20):
What did we do it here? Yeah? We said that
was crazy? And then a ship when it was a
shift change, I'm like, I'm the I'm the.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
Guy that said what are we doing here?
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Like oh you yeah, yeah? Stuff talking about you?
Speaker 4 (34:36):
Everybody?
Speaker 1 (34:37):
Yeah, everybody's every.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Guy here the what yeah? And uh right this way sir.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
So I will I will say being memorable in those
kinds of situations. I mean, you know, I am underplaying
it a little bit, but I find it. I find
it a good skill to have. Matt and Joel, you know,
just good guys, great guys there. There's there's certain things
that kind of kind of help you, help you out
a little bit. All right, So let's go to some
(35:07):
Facebook comments here, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.
Eric Lapour said, what oh he put like a little pole.
So I'll just let me share my screen here. So
there's he put on the Facebook group. He said, pick
a sandwich, pick a sami?
Speaker 2 (35:28):
Oh shit.
Speaker 6 (35:29):
Yeah, And wasn't sandwich crown best food?
Speaker 2 (35:34):
It sure was?
Speaker 1 (35:35):
This is controversial, man, Yeah, okay, well it just wants to.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
Know what is your go to lunch box sandwich. But
the steaks are not quite so high as best.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
Food, you know, right, Okay, so we have pick a
sammie and there are nine choices. Is a Balogonian cheese,
but bloni and cheese, turkey and cheese, Italian ham and cheese,
chicken salad, egg salad, pimento cheese, ham and turkey, club
tuna salad.
Speaker 6 (36:05):
All right, now, before we weigh in on the picka
sami option, we all agree that none of us want
to eat any of the sandwiches depicted of this image.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Disagree.
Speaker 5 (36:13):
Yeah, they're all horribly drawn here, photographed they are.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
They're mostly in white. Three of them look to be
on some sort of a lot of them look to
have the crust cut off, maybe trying. No crust is
still on. But they're cutting triangles and we're seeing the
open or the cut side. So that's why it doesn't
like this crust facing us. They look pretty basic. But
there is a sandwich here that rains supreme easily, and
(36:39):
I would order it all the time for your lunchbox,
for my lunch box.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
We're not talking about any other scenario here.
Speaker 6 (36:47):
And I find it an underrated sandwich. So what you're
saying is this is a message to Jenny m No.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Who good?
Speaker 2 (37:00):
What a trap? That was good?
Speaker 1 (37:02):
Answer this? Uh, look, this is an underrated sandwich. I
think it maybe takes the most time to make.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
He's gonna say, egg salad.
Speaker 1 (37:12):
Is I I find it just rich, fulfilling, protein packed,
creamy watering just thinking about it. It could be served
served cold egg salad. Baby egg salad is underrated. Slash
(37:33):
s tear.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
As a sandwich.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Yeah, as if.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
I'm just like not with the spoon.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
I like, I guess, yeah, you could say, maybe you
could say it's the miso soup of sandwiches. I don't know, it's.
Speaker 2 (37:45):
Freaking good man shoes to fill.
Speaker 6 (37:48):
No, I've got to say maybe it's because of the
way that he picked in these, But I really feel like,
if I was going to eat a sandwich that looks
like one of these, the one I would want is
not here.
Speaker 9 (38:01):
There's saying there's no PB and J and I look
like this, then I want the first thing that comes
to my mind is where's my PB and J, because
that would take as a lunchbox sandwich anytime.
Speaker 7 (38:14):
That I The only sandwiches that I eat that look
like this are Bolognian cheese and tuna salad, and I
like them both.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Yeah, there's no spam and seaweed either. Yes, because that's
very comparable to insane.
Speaker 4 (38:33):
I guess.
Speaker 7 (38:33):
I guess the eggs egg salad sandwiches I had were
on that look like that too.
Speaker 4 (38:40):
But an Italian that's wrong.
Speaker 7 (38:41):
Bread club, wrong bread, everything else fucking wrong bread? And
what is pimento cheese? What is pimento cheese spread?
Speaker 1 (38:54):
It's freaking awesome.
Speaker 4 (38:57):
As a sandwich, like an East Coast thing or something.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
You'd like it. It's bomb Okay, all.
Speaker 5 (39:05):
Right, Now, nobody has said what my answer would be,
because the pole is asking for what is your go
to lunch box sandwich? I think the picture we got
caught up in the picture just of those choices. What
is it that you would make lunchbox I would say
more times in my life than any other turkey and cheese.
(39:27):
Granted it does not look like that, but the turkey
and cheese sandwich is definitely my go to lunchbox sandwich.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
That's what I'm making.
Speaker 1 (39:34):
How are you our food guy? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (39:39):
What's the problem with sandwich?
Speaker 6 (39:41):
I will say, as as a child, ham and cheese
was my go to ham and cheese.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Pretty good, But you know I like a grilled ham
and cheese.
Speaker 7 (39:51):
Did you get mat for a sandwich?
Speaker 2 (39:54):
Choice?
Speaker 4 (39:54):
Is that what happened?
Speaker 2 (39:55):
Austin? I can't.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
It's like a how dare you Matt? Turkey and cheese?
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (40:00):
You too stupid? What are you dumb?
Speaker 1 (40:04):
I never said that. I never said that. I never
said any of that. I just said, how are you
the food guy here? That's all nothing, nothing about your intelligence? Yeah,
it's just basic, you know. I mean, it's it's fine,
it's fine. But if you're looking for s tire, some
(40:25):
egg salad, where's killing when you need him? Kim's listening,
doing his car, driving this pond, going tag salad. These
guys are crazy, you know how He's been really animated.
Speaker 6 (40:37):
About an old guy walks by and says something doing.
He screams fun off out the window.
Speaker 1 (40:41):
Yeah anyway, okay, let's shoot, I closed the closed the tab.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
At least we hit the important issues.
Speaker 1 (40:50):
We did, so we're here to do we did all right.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
Let me speaking of important? Can we do this? How
you remimy?
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Let me read one more comment? Okay, because we've we've
done one.
Speaker 4 (41:00):
I've done one.
Speaker 1 (41:02):
Yeah, last day. I think we can come back with
all right.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
Sorry, I felt like more.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
Know you're right, we did more than what we did
one on Facebook. I want to do one more here.
Speaker 7 (41:11):
Let's see if you want to go poor sandwich choice
into no comments again.
Speaker 1 (41:17):
Jeremy Clayboss says, uh, you know everyone was doubting him
about his Carnival stock. He posted a screenshot. His Carnival
stock was about fourteen dollars a share when he got it.
It's just under thirty dollars now total gain is four
hundred eighty dollars. Damn no, man, good for you, he's
doing all right. That's some of that was probably it's
gone up, so of that's for me. Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 4 (41:39):
I guess they put profits ahead of service.
Speaker 1 (41:44):
Yeah, I mean yeah, yeah, certainly let's see here. Casey
Peters says, I need to start protecting my ears. I've
been in bands all my life and it's starting to
catch up with me. Any suggestions for ear plugs that
filter sound that won't break the bank?
Speaker 5 (42:02):
I mean Amazon, you can just type in ear plugs
and they have like a little kit that gives you
like twenty pairs of little plastic ear plugs. Some of
them have a little cable at the back, some of
them don't. That's all you need, man. I worked behind
the scenes on the doc series where I was having
to stand near a giant cannon fucking going.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
Off, and let me tell you, those ear plugs were fine.
It works.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
And when is the Civil War documentary?
Speaker 4 (42:32):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (42:32):
Sadly never, But that's okay. It's the biz, baby.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
Tis tis the biz.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
A lot of people have some good, good suggestions in
the comments too. Some people said loop eargasm's good.
Speaker 5 (42:46):
I'm telling you, dude, just fucking little plastic that's all
you need.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
Well, there's something that protected to hear, but there's some
that don't kill the fidelity, so you can still hear
everything clearly. So if you are watching oh I cl
or something like that, it's not just muffled.
Speaker 2 (43:01):
That makes more sense.
Speaker 1 (43:02):
Yeah, okay, that I get.
Speaker 2 (43:03):
I thought it was more about.
Speaker 6 (43:05):
I mean, i'd look into the newest air pods pro.
Those things are pretty customizable. You could probably do a
lot worse than that.
Speaker 1 (43:13):
I wouldn't. I wouldn't that that seems too expensive. You know,
I'm on a mash. I don't want to wear AirPods,
I mean eat. Yeah. Plus, I think those are noise
canceling too, And I don't think you want noise canceling.
I think you just need like filtering. I don't know.
Speaker 6 (43:27):
I think that there's a there settings within them now
where you can do I.
Speaker 1 (43:31):
Wouldn't be surprised. You know. I almost pulled the plug
Gary on the ear plug on the I almost pulled
the ear plug on the Meta ray bands the other day.
You you pull the plug or you almost pulled the trigger?
Shoo getting my phrases. Yeah, I almost pulled the ear
(43:52):
trigger on the Meta the Meta ray bands, the smart
How close did you come? Tried them on? Chatted about
some of the stuff, tried to get Jenny on my side,
have gotten.
Speaker 6 (44:11):
I have gotten as far as you aside from trying
to get my wife I have. I have gone and
tried them on, I have had them in my cart
I've I've gotten about as closed as you can get.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
And she's just I just still am, you know. I
I like to really do a lot of research and
contemplate for way too long when I'm buying anything. So
I'm still kind of like, do I need them? Do
I need them? I have some friends that got them
and they're pretty sweet.
Speaker 6 (44:36):
The answer is no, you don't need them. But I
understand wanting all the content I can make.
Speaker 5 (44:42):
Is this so both of you can keep up your
Pokemon Go obsessions without having to look down.
Speaker 1 (44:48):
I didn't even think about the Pokemon Go part of
it at all. Yeah, I wouldn't mind catching a Jigglepuff
with these well looking stylish like this.
Speaker 6 (44:58):
So I don't know, well, everyone else watch you catches
jiggly Puff, Chris.
Speaker 1 (45:02):
Can you imagine you are like people could be watching
me do this podcast from my point of view?
Speaker 6 (45:08):
Wow, I think your computer, Chris, I think this is
really the question is if we can figure out a
way that your view is a separate box on Zoom,
then it's a business expense.
Speaker 1 (45:22):
It would be a busy expense either way. I would
make sure you know if mat, if Matt could do
his gift card dinners that I.
Speaker 2 (45:30):
Actually, let's be clear, I do not do that.
Speaker 1 (45:34):
Okay, first I've heard of it. All right, Well, anyway,
those are comments everybody, thanks for writing, and we'll read
you want to get this is how you remind me going.
So I will play the intro and Matt you get
to set it up.
Speaker 2 (45:49):
I sure am.
Speaker 4 (46:11):
Good story, all right?
Speaker 7 (46:14):
Sot with breaking and them wrong.
Speaker 1 (46:21):
I mean, you know you only do like some of
the lyrics. You can't do them all.
Speaker 2 (46:26):
We're gonna get banned from YouTube. Right?
Speaker 7 (46:30):
Does that sound just like Nickelback? That's why I'm so
good this segment.
Speaker 5 (46:37):
This segment exists because we are encouraging our fans to
dive into the archives find some great loss moments. Let's
bring them back to the forefront. This one was submitted
by Ryan Roberts. It's from an episode in February of
twenty nineteen called Picking Bones, Picking Boners and Gary's press Tour.

do with the title of the episode. I'm just making
it so people can can find the episode. But this
is a good first for our show.
Speaker 1 (47:09):
I will pause there and just say we're pretty good
at titling episodes. I mean, I'm intrigued. I don't even
remember we're talking about. Seriously, I want to know what
the hell I was doing. All right, here we go.
All right, here's the clip. The place does look great now. Actually,
the walls are covered in wood slats from palettes.
Speaker 5 (47:25):
All.
Speaker 1 (47:25):
Yeah, this is all. This is all reclaimed wood.
Speaker 7 (47:28):
Everything in this room is pretty much reclaimed. Amount of
money I put into this is probably under three hundred dollars.
Speaker 2 (47:36):

Yeah, thanks Ryan, Thanks Ryan.
Speaker 1 (48:29):
You always remember the first poop on the podcast.
Speaker 7 (48:32):

but thank you Matt for cutting that too, very diligent. Well, Matt,
do you still like accept every friend request you get?
Speaker 5 (49:24):
I gotta stop doing that. I gotta stop doing that.
I look to see the mutual friends, let's put it
that way.
Speaker 4 (49:30):
That helps.
Speaker 2 (49:31):
You're always every once in a while they have one
mutual friend. It's Dawson. So I'm like, you don't know
your mine?
Speaker 1 (49:37):
Like every time I get a friend request from somebody
I don't know personally you Yeah, you or Dawson are
there are the connection?
Speaker 2 (49:44):
I slowed it down.
Speaker 1 (49:47):
Yeah, you don't have to, It's okay, you know, No,
judgment here. But uh, all right, look we got we
got a lot of stuff to get into next episode.
I do have a bust and makes me feel good,
you know, I'll do a quick one. I'll do a
quick one here. Just do a real quick one. Blessing
makes me feel good. All right? Once again, this is
(50:08):
a journal from my road trip across the country. It's
uh fifteen other guys. We took a school bus in
the year two thousand and six.
Speaker 5 (50:16):
By the way, to say this is across the country
is absolutely under selling what you guys have managed to
do because you are crisscrossing back and forth in a
completely nonsensical manner. Fans are still confused. If you're confused
if it was empty or end, North Dakota or Maryland.
A lot of people think it was not North Dakota.
(50:38):
Can you you know, can't get front all these these
rumors here.
Speaker 1 (50:41):
I can't. So it was North Dakota. So what I'm
this is, I want to open this part of the second.
I realized that a lot of my journaling was not
done in real time, so I would some of it was.
And then when we're on the bus for hours.
Speaker 2 (50:56):
This twenty segments into this.
Speaker 1 (50:58):
Because I just realized when we were on the bus
for hours on end, I didn't put dates. I didn't
I didn't log them with dates. So we were on
the bus, I realized, I if I had a memory,
I would just start a new entry of a memory
that happened. So it's gonna be it's gonna be a little,
a little all over the place, because like, I'm so wait.
Speaker 5 (51:20):
A minute, now, can I just ask another really practical
question here? Were you still writing on the pages in
order or would you just open to a blank page,
write a random thought, close the book.
Speaker 1 (51:34):
That's the one. That one, the second one? Yes, sure, anarchy,
but I would write what state or city I was
in in that memory.
Speaker 5 (51:47):
So I would love this is like some like indie
movie shit. I would love to be watching a movie
for like ninety minutes and be like, well, this is
obviously in a sequential order, and then find out the
minutes into it that in fact, it's all based on
random memories.
Speaker 2 (52:04):
And then the rest of.
Speaker 5 (52:04):
The the rewatch would be incredible.
Speaker 1 (52:09):
Yeah, and then there'd be fans who put it in
real order eventually. Yeah. Just look, I mean Christopher Nolan
did it. I can do it. Yeah, but I basically
am writing this journal like a Chrys Nolan movie.
Speaker 2 (52:19):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (52:20):
All right, So Lowell, Massachusetts. So only a few of
us go because not everybody wanted to go to the
Red Sox game. So a few that did went and
the other the other half of the group stayed in
New York City. Okay, and so we go to the
game and our bus breaks down. So wait, you guys
(52:44):
have taken the bus.
Speaker 6 (52:45):
What percentage of guys are in Lowell versus New York City?
Speaker 1 (52:50):
Sixty sixty percent are in Lowell? Or were? We're in Boston?
And then the everyone else is just riding skateboards around
Times Square.
Speaker 6 (53:00):
So where exactly do you park a bus in downtown Boston?
Speaker 2 (53:04):
There are places?
Speaker 1 (53:05):
Yeah, I mean you just it's a curb, I mean,
you know whatever, Yeah, as long as there's no there's
no no standing science. So our bus breaks down, we
get it towed to a repair shop and lull. But
it's on the weekend, and these it's like a Friday,
so they're about to start the weekend. And oh when
we end up spending the night because after the game
(53:29):
and now we get we get towed, it's Friday night.
Speaker 2 (53:31):
That the guys are in New York.
Speaker 1 (53:33):
They they basically just pulled an all night or and
they were like, please come get us. We have nowhere
to go. So the lol guys like, we're not going
to fix it till Monday because it's the weekend. But
I'm like, but you can fix it now, Like yeah,
we could, but we just it's the weekend. We want
we want to get started with our lives, and we're
just like, please, we have to get our friends in
(53:54):
New York right now. They have nowhere to stay. We
have like all their stuff with us and they just
have skateboards.
Speaker 7 (54:01):
Are they're gonna think twice next time they get the
opportunity to go to Lowell.
Speaker 6 (54:06):
So and you guys are young, so I assume there's
no like, can we we can make it worth your while.
This is just gonna purely be on like their kindness right.
Speaker 1 (54:14):
Right it is. And we here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (54:16):
No, no wedding bartender exchange. No, well that's that, this
is what's happening.
Speaker 1 (54:21):
No. I mean, yeah, we're gonna pay them. We were
gonna pay them. We're talking about financially, Matt. Then yeah,
there's gonna be in exchange for for that but there's not.
Speaker 6 (54:28):
There's no like you know, and we'll throw three hundred
on top of that if you see.
Speaker 1 (54:32):
Yeah, of course there is. We're yeah, okay, well yeah,
we're We're very good about that. So but as I said,
and I'm gonna we're gonna bookend this year with a look,
be memorable, be friendly, be personable, because we ended up
like I remember talking to these guys and they were
like big dudes, and you know, I just got down
(54:52):
on their level by standing up on a ladder. No,
it was I got down the Sorry, Matt, I just
had to get out.
Speaker 5 (55:02):
I was just picturing you in line with the bouncers again, man,
just chatting with the guys being like, what's up with
that thing?
Speaker 6 (55:07):
It's like gos is crazy, right, bus is broken?
Speaker 2 (55:10):
Man, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (55:13):
Yeah, and uh and we end up talking and then
I kind of okay. My friends say it was like
a movie, like they just heard heroic music coming. I'm like, guys,
we need to do this. Not for America, but it
was kind of in that sense, like we've got to
get our friends. They're you know, they're alone. I know
you can do this, can you will you? And like,
(55:34):
you know, we just lock lock hands and they go, yeah,
I mean that's the movie version of what happened, but I.
Speaker 2 (55:39):
Basically felt like it.
Speaker 1 (55:41):
Yeah, basically, I basically of the you know, eight or
nine of us that were there, I convinced them to
to fix our bus and stay a little longer, which
they they did, and it all worked out. So this
is my this is my recounting of that Lowell The
place is called Lowell Fleet. It's amazing how far sheer,
(56:02):
honesty and gut feelings can get you. I went out
on a limb against everyone and pulled through and got
our alternator fixed a day earlier.
Speaker 5 (56:14):
Wow, So you're saying against everyone, So you were like.
Speaker 2 (56:19):
These guys and they were friends.
Speaker 4 (56:20):
You're like, fuck those guys, man.
Speaker 6 (56:22):
That's right, Probably one of the most Can I suggest
you know, a little edit for the future. I mean,
the way you were telling the story. If it wasn't
getting fixed till Monday, you gotta fix two days earlier.
Speaker 1 (56:31):
That's right. Probably one of the most eye opening and
triumphant experiences I've ever had. And but the people in
Lowell Fleet have to be bipolar. One second, he's offering
to let me borrow his car to drive to New
York and pick up our friends. The next second, he's
questioning my college intelligence college quotes.
Speaker 2 (56:51):
He sounds like a swift negotiator.
Speaker 1 (56:55):
Then they fixed the alternator in a day to help
us out. Then he tells us he wants to be
as far away from as possible from us. Then he
gives us a shirt to remember them by. Then his
son steals our license plate in our football. How old
(57:17):
was the sun? I don't remember at the end, so,
oh my god, it was. It was quite the roller coaster.
So there you go.
Speaker 4 (57:27):
It's pretty.
Speaker 1 (57:33):
I mean, the license plate.
Speaker 6 (57:34):
I guess I can understand if you like collect every
state license plate or something, and California hasn't rolled through.
Speaker 1 (57:39):
But like the football, Jesus, you're just a thief. You
can't take our football. That's up.
Speaker 4 (57:44):
Yeah, yeah, that is messed up, dude.
Speaker 1 (57:46):
So anyway, but shout out to a little fleet for
helping us out that day. All right, that will do
for this episode of article. When we go around the horn,
get our plugs, and we'll get started with Patron. We'll
start over there in Austin, Texas.
Speaker 5 (57:58):
