Speaker 1 (00:12):
Hey, welcome to water Cooler. Thank you so so much
for tuning in. Mouth flicks are back, So thank you
for tuning in, because I know you probably didn't want
you were like, huh no mouthflicks, no re listen for me,
but you did it anyway and you earned them. So
thank you for hanging out and tuning in. You know

(00:33):
how the show goes a right, Chris Locks, I want
to kick it with my Corol digital buzz of Yesteryear
and Dawson. Well, I guess he's still curl but Yesterdyear. Sorry, dude,
I't done this in a long time. I don't even
know how to intro you guys anymore. It's been frickings
it lost the script, lost my sense of direction, lost
my memory, and anyway, let metroduce. Everybody's here with me

(00:59):
today all the way in Austin, Texas. It's Matt Fondelier. Hey, brother, Oh,
I missed hearing that, and then I miss you. Miss
Let's just talk about how much we miss each other.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
I mean the arms.

Speaker 3 (01:11):
I would I would stretch them farther, but then you
wouldn't see them on the screen.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Yeah, Matt's arms are stretched all the way out for
those who are just listening, and then all the way in.
I mean I did that already. So this is this
is what I'm talking about. Dude. I need, I need,
I need to loosen up, I need to relax, and
I need. Introduce my buddy in Nohl, California. It's Mike Dawson, Chris.
I miss you like the desert, misses the rain. That

(01:36):
song just reminds me of my days working at TJ
Max listening to that song on the speakers, all right,
And then all the way in Las Vegas, Nevada, Sin
freaking city, it's mister Gerry Smith.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
I like that. So Gary. Gary is in Vegas because
he's on a bachelor party and he has decided to
just grace us with his presence for a little bit,
give us a Vegas update and possibly his blood alcohol
content percentage.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
So Gary, Yeah, when did you start?

Speaker 4 (02:18):
Okay?

Speaker 5 (02:18):
So I landed around eleven thirty. I got to the
hotel around twelve to fifteen.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
During the daytime, to be clear, correct.

Speaker 5 (02:26):
Yeah, that's those are am well. I guess twelve fifteen
was PM, but I got here in the morning. But
I have been called back to the room numerous times
because there has been breaking news. Karen Reid was found
not guilty, the Lakers have been sold for ten billion dollars, and.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
Mark is just determined to fuck with me. So I
has been.

Speaker 5 (02:48):
It has been an absolute mess. I mean, it's just
I cannot enumerate. I'm supposed to be at dinner in
nineteen minutes. The chances that I make it there at
that time are slim to none. But I'm sitting here.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
Especially if you're sticking around for a shae. I mean
that's going to be fifteen to twenty minutes on it.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
No, yeah, no no.

Speaker 5 (03:06):
If I stay for the sheha, then I'm not going
to eat myself. So I'm gonna have to bail for
the shea. So I'm sorry to hear it. I'm sorry
to tell you guys that, but uh, I did want
to want to check in because you know.

Speaker 6 (03:16):
I'm sitting here.

Speaker 5 (03:17):
Well, Dawson, you're very right, You're very right.

Speaker 4 (03:20):
I'm not sorry about that. I'll just touch my face
now because I know it's Calen's.

Speaker 5 (03:24):
Favorite part of the shay is just my you know,
but Cales, I am. I can see that, Thank you
very much, Matt.

Speaker 6 (03:31):
But yeah, I listen there.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
God damn it, I know, but I'm fucking with you.

Speaker 5 (03:37):
But no, I am sitting in my room at the Aria,
and uh, I am going to dinner at Catch tonight,
which is a sushi dinner, which the three of you know,
about five years ago would have been my nightmare.

Speaker 4 (03:48):
But now I eat sushi, so I'm very much looking
forward to it.

Speaker 5 (03:52):
Yeah, and then I'm going to uh yeah, and then
we're going to a beach club tonight, which uh really
persuaded my fears of dress codes. I sent a message
in the group chat with about twenty five guys who
are on this pastor party saying, you know what do
I need in far as far as dress code you
get into a club in Las Vegas. I know how

(04:13):
to dress for a parent teacher conference where I'm gonna
slap a principle down for asking me about Jerry duty.
But I have no idea what the dress code is
for a nightclub. And they said, no, bro, you're going
to a beach party, so you can wear a swimsuit
and flip flops.

Speaker 4 (04:28):
It's basically Matt's stream.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
This is my dream nightclub. Where were these in circa
two thousand and nine?

Speaker 5 (04:34):
They were there we just didn't have the means to
go to them. But I am hanging out with people
who are much more successful than me. So that's that's
where I'm going tonight.

Speaker 6 (04:43):
So always be the worst player on your team.

Speaker 4 (04:46):
Exactly, Dawson.

Speaker 5 (04:47):
And yeah, there are a lot of dudes who so
far today have reached for a check a lot faster
than I could.

Speaker 4 (04:54):
And I have done Jurassic Park arms like Matt. You know,
just all that.

Speaker 7 (04:59):
Yeah, you can also you can also do the stretched
for it and then pretend like a oh yeah, elbow
and oh yeah.

Speaker 5 (05:08):
The first no, the first one, I dropped the credit
card in the little cup that the bartender had put there,
and then you know, a few more guys came up
and the person who I was sharing that cup with said, no,
let's take our credit cards out, and I said, say less.
And then you know, ultimately, uh yeah, so I'm I'm

(05:28):
hanging with a lot of guys who are way more
successful than me, and I'm drifting off them a little bit.
I've definitely picked up a few checks and I plan
to pick up a few more. But uh, it's it's
an interesting, uh interesting trip to hang out with people
where you are not necessarily anywhere near the most affluent
person in the group.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Will you be gambling?

Speaker 4 (05:49):
I would I would like to gamble, Matt. As a
matter of fact.

Speaker 5 (05:53):
We are at the Ario, which I did not know
until I got here, was where you and I actually
did a little gambling during one of the trips that
we did with Corolla. But I recognized a few of
the little rooms that I told I told people in
my life that I had never been to the Aria before.
But upon getting here Chris during year bachelor party, I
believe we came to the Aria and we ate a

(06:15):
little food yeah, top floor. And I believe Matt during
one of the Home Advisor conferences, we came here and
you and I snuck off after a private whiskey tasting
and played a little blackjack and made a good amount
of money in a very short period of time. And
I've walked by all of those things, and all those
memories have flooded back to me. So I do hope

(06:36):
to be gambling. I've brought a good amount of cash
to to try to do that for a time period,
but so far today because I keep getting called back
to my computer to post stories about the Lakers or
about the Karen Reid trial, or about god knows whatever
else strikes March Fancy.

Speaker 4 (06:54):
It's been tough, but he.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
Knows you're ending us though, so that's why he suddenly
wants to post the Lakers.

Speaker 7 (07:01):
Gary, Gary, your clear and deliberate manner of speaking does
not match the alcoholic induced puffiness of your face right now, either,
I like, come on, either you. I think you can
hold your liquor pretty well, is what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (07:18):
I'm a professional.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
You're handling it quite well.

Speaker 4 (07:23):
No, I've been called away, you know.

Speaker 5 (07:26):
I will say that if I was to bring in
some of my compatriots, there would be a different level
of slur and of voice clarity.

Speaker 4 (07:34):
But I have been called away a few.

Speaker 5 (07:36):
Times, and I think that is leading to uh, to
me being a little bit more clear and absolutely under
no circumstances what I've been joining this podcast two.

Speaker 4 (07:45):
Hours from now.

Speaker 6 (07:46):
Well, well, God bless Karen Reid.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
Yeah, yeah, there you go. That got you next to
a computer? Is there and you could just tell us?
I mean, it's just us. It's me, you, Matt Dawson,
and my wife.

Speaker 6 (07:59):
Oh she there is she on the line.

Speaker 5 (08:01):
She's not there, but she will be listening, so come
hear your question, sir.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
Oh no, he was Gary talksing you before you even Gary,
Gary talking again.

Speaker 4 (08:12):
Gary talked the question.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
He's getting good. Is there is there a beverage within
reaching distance of you right now?

Speaker 2 (08:22):
If this was Show and Tell, I've.

Speaker 4 (08:25):
Got to be honest.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
I can reach smart Water and it's not even opened.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
It's the only one I can reach.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
And god, hope's probably twenty eight dollars.

Speaker 5 (08:35):
Let's hope that's not on like a wait center, because
I might have just cost myself twenty eight dollars.

Speaker 4 (08:42):
But no, there's not a drink in my reach.

Speaker 5 (08:45):
I was, I mean, the mistake of looking at my phone,
and I was asked if a podcast was up, and
I had to depart the much like you know, two
of you attended my bachelor party the bachelor and question
got a very nice sweet in the sky sweet tower
of the area, which is not where I'm saying. And
I've been in that room for a long time with

(09:07):
fifteen or twenty guys, and I made the mistake of
looking at my phone and Mark asked whether or not
a podcast was up, and it wasn't, So I rushed
back to my room to post that podcast and.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
He was waiting for the Super Troopers movie night. That's
what Mark won happy.

Speaker 1 (09:22):
I'll tell you, man, my life has changed so much
like the meet up room. I remember that you, like
some of your buddies get the bigger room, and that's
like the meetup room where everybody just hangs out. Everybody
meets up there, everybody drinks there, everybody pre games there,
everybody posts games there, and basically you ever just posts
it up there. I went on a trip to Palm
Springs with like four other families and the meeting room

(09:43):
was in one of the rooms. But there are a
bunch of toddlers everywhere and they're just snacking and toddler snacks. Man,
I can process. They're hard crackers. I'm walking barefoot over
all these broken shit. I feel I felt like Bruce
Willison die hard, like just walking across a living room.
This is how.

Speaker 5 (10:03):
I have to say you and I have put this
gentleman to shame. My friend is a hedge fund dude
who has all the money in the world, and he said,
I'm going to get a hangover style suite in Vegas
and everyone can congregate there.

Speaker 4 (10:17):
You got a two bedroom suite it's not it's not great.

Speaker 5 (10:21):
It's what you what you got, what you got for
your bachelor party, what I got by my bachelor party
in San Diego.

Speaker 4 (10:27):
We have put him to shame.

Speaker 5 (10:28):
And I'm not I'm not saying that to anyone who
is going to, you know, be at this bachelor party.
And I'm not going to say that to no one
at this party is going to listen. But I looked
around this suite. I told a few people before I left,
I'll send you videos of the suite. No videos will
be sign it, of course. Yeah, it's it's a it's
a fine space for you know, us to meet up in.

Speaker 6 (10:51):
But I do we.

Speaker 7 (10:53):
Av that I've been observing on this show, sick. Sixty
percent of this show, when we have full capacity, uses
the word toddler. Right now, fifty percent of this show
uses the word toddler. You will never hear someone without

(11:16):
children volunteer the word toddler.

Speaker 5 (11:21):
Why in conversation, I'll tell you why, Chris, Because it
takes having a toddler to observe one and understand why
that is a term they toddle.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
So what if it's not What if you find somebody
who toddles how do you? How do you?

Speaker 4 (11:35):
But that's the thing, until you don't find you.

Speaker 7 (11:38):
If we if we find people who toddle, you should
worry about us.

Speaker 5 (11:42):
That's what I'm saying, Dawson, is that it only exists
from age like one and a half to three or
three and a half. And then at that point, if
you find someone who toddles, then they're just a horrible addict,
you know.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
I see, so yeah, you know.

Speaker 6 (11:56):
Every now and then I toddle.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
Say I did not drinking with Dawson before. There might
be some toddler guys.

Speaker 5 (12:04):
If you if you zoomed me in four or five hours,
it's not unlikely that I would be toddling it just
you know. But I just realized I'm supposed to be
dinner in ten minutes, so I was happy to zoom
in and join you guys, But I.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
Gary, I need you other Otherwise, Toddler's only gonna be
thirty three point three three three of this podcast.

Speaker 6 (12:24):
I'll be.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
All my notes are Toddler notes.

Speaker 5 (12:30):
Oh no, oh my god, why aren't you using why
aren't you using post its?

Speaker 7 (12:34):
If I had a friend name to big, I need
a friend named todd so I can just call him Toddler.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
That's what I thought. I was thinking that to you.

Speaker 5 (12:42):
That's a good thank you, Matt, Matt Professional Professional podcast.
And that's why I can't say for Shade, because there's
two fucking post it notes.

Speaker 4 (12:52):
I've got to get out of here, guys.

Speaker 5 (12:54):
I'm sorry, but I've got to go eat some sushi
and I will report back with a chef and a
gay ree.

Speaker 6 (13:00):
Y nice.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
I look forward to my friend. Thanks for calling.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Enjoy your.

Speaker 4 (13:07):
I mean, how dare you?

Speaker 1 (13:09):
All right?

Speaker 4 (13:10):
Later?

Speaker 6 (13:10):
Fellas?

Speaker 4 (13:11):
All right, Bluefish, thank you, Chris, bye.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
Guys by audios. Oh man, poor guy.

Speaker 7 (13:18):
Gary is definitely cutting up a rail of cocaine right now.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
He does not do that.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
Can't confirm that, Matt, can't it firm? Matt stament, all right,
m you know Gary is holding up the smart water.
I was in So, I was in Orlando last week and.

Speaker 6 (13:37):
Orlando first off Orlando Calaries.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah, and had a great time. Went to the show
called infocom Dawson, which is kind of right up your allebsurprice.
You don't go to this.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
It sounded like an awesome punk band.

Speaker 6 (13:54):
It's like place where you go to get info. Man,
you know it.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
Both of staments are true. Dawson's is a little bit
more true. Oh well it's still I mean I go to.

Speaker 7 (14:07):
This, well, I hope you didn't have much outdoor uh travel,
there was sween your hotel and wherever this info con was.
Because I'll tell you one thing about Orlando. I've worked
several live events in Orlando, and you walk out of
your hotel room in the summer and you are soaked

(14:30):
three hundred percent through within five minutes.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
That is completely what happened to me. Ok. I went
in on a Tuesday night and it was just a
straight up thunderstorm Orlando, super super hard rain. But at
the Saint it's like hot rain. Though I don't know
it's it's kind of fun just because I'm not used
to it.

Speaker 7 (14:49):
Dude, the rain makes it better. Great outdoor games where
it was eighty eight degrees outside but one hundred percent humidity,
so if you got rain at least it was a
little bit of a reprieve from that oppressive heat.

Speaker 3 (15:05):
I also want to remind you Chris, at our friend
Rob's wedding in Florida, started pouring rain in the middle
of the reception and then the DJ played Umbrella by
Rihanna and it brought the house down.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
It was very appropriate. I remember dancing with that. I
actually have I'm going to bring up that wedding in
a little bit. But so it went to info com
c O M M and it's like A.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
Was just with one M.

Speaker 6 (15:31):
Now I'm listening.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
Now, Yeah, exactly how I pulled you back in. Yeah,
it's it's so tech.

Speaker 6 (15:38):
There's eminem's short for communication.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
Yeah, and it's all it's all sound mixing, ironic communicated consoles.
You could, yeah, just infocom is a is a better
ring to it. But yeah, speakers, consoles, dots, like, it's
just sound guys everywhere. You know, you know they're all

(16:02):
and I love sound guys.

Speaker 6 (16:04):
Now, let me ask you a question.

Speaker 7 (16:06):
Do you have a Yamaha Polo?

Speaker 1 (16:10):
No, I don't.

Speaker 7 (16:11):
Oh dude, that's uniform when you're representing at a audio
trade show.

Speaker 6 (16:18):
I wasn't necessarily at the company polo.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
You should. I've been. Look, I've been a lot of
trade shows in my day. Nam, we used to go
to every your Sema, I used to go to every year.
I'm still good name every year. Uh cat conk cat
cong kN. I Just the thing is, I'm not really
a booth babe though, you know, so they're not gonna
want me.

Speaker 6 (16:37):
A booth banger. A booth babe, oh, a booth babe.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
Interchangeable.

Speaker 7 (16:45):
It's like, yover, but Chris is not eye candy.

Speaker 6 (16:51):
I'm not, but you are brain candy.

Speaker 7 (16:54):
They're like, they're like, hey, this short Asian guy must know,
oh everything that.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
This has all just been so insulting the last ten
seconds of this praise. You're not eye candy, but your
brain candy this, uh regardless.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
He told Gary earlier that he's got pudgy face from.

Speaker 6 (17:20):
Trouble anyway.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
Yeah, it's all it's all chicking out the latest and
greatest and speakers and mixers and yeah, and cameras and
led screens. It's it's awesome. It's if if you ever
go to a concert, all that stuff is starting there.
It's the seeds of creating those shows. So I'm there
for the week for infocom, have a great, great time,
meet some awesome sound guys. And uh, by the way,

(17:47):
not as grumpy as everybody says. They're quite delightful. You
just got to know to speak their language a little bit,
you know. And uh so I'm there and we're going
to a dinner and I'm like, oh, what are where?
What is everybody wearing to this dinner? Like people are
asking and they're like, oh, it's like business business casual,

(18:08):
and that's always like a weird thing for me. I'm like, okay,
it's just a collared shirt maybe. But the I'm like,
you know, I'm in Orlando, and I think Orlando this humidity.
They have a different formal, business casual. And people are
asking me what do I mean by that? And I said, oh,
I went to a wedding once, and at this wedding

(18:29):
I saw a guy where, uh change in his shorts
and flip flops mid ceremony. Yeah, And they're like, I
get it now, And that's kind of how I shaped
what Orlando formal was. And that was right by the way.
People they're just some more forgiving, because you got to
be it's impossible to wear all these heavy clothes in

(18:51):
this kind of heat and humidity.

Speaker 3 (18:53):
So I just want to clarify if I can't just
rewind a half second, because obviously Chris is talking about
me right now now, but I did not change into
shorts and flip flops mid ceremony.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
I had the decency to wait for the ceremony to.

Speaker 7 (19:08):
You didn't say mid ceremony. You said mid reception.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
No, I said, I absolutely said mid ceremony.

Speaker 6 (19:14):
Okay, I know what I did because I know this story.
My brain auto corrected.

Speaker 3 (19:21):
Listen, it's how I live my life. Pants for the ceremony,
shorts the reception.

Speaker 6 (19:26):
Put that on a bumper sticker.

Speaker 4 (19:28):
Bro.

Speaker 1 (19:28):
Yeah, that's a maxim that some of our listeners for
five bucks.

Speaker 6 (19:32):
That's as maxium.

Speaker 7 (19:34):
Deep the uh pretty much for the ceremony short for
the reception.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
I had to buy an umbrella there because I didn't
bring one. I didn't think to bring one, and I've
never been an umbrella guy. I mean, look, we're in
southern California. It rains a handful of times a year,
and when it does rain, I'm not usually just standing
in it, and if I am, I'm not really bothered by
it that much. But had had to get the umbrella
this time. It's my I know, but I don't know

(20:02):
a decade.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
I have several questions if I'm do too, But go ahead, Matt, no, please, no,
I want you to ask your questions first.

Speaker 7 (20:09):
Well, my first question is, even if it wasn't rain,
and you would be soaked by the time you got
into the convention center. So is this umbrella thing revolving
around your hair?

Speaker 2 (20:19):
Great question?

Speaker 6 (20:20):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (20:21):
Did did?

Speaker 7 (20:22):
Did the humidity and the rain fuck up your hair?
Because not changing anything about your appearance. Either your ret
with wet with rain or you're wet with sweat.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
I actually got it for the gear because I had
a bunch of gear in my backpack and I don't
want my answer to.

Speaker 6 (20:40):
Get perfect answer.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
All right now, my first hair.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
The whole time my man okay good, didn't do anything
on the hair.

Speaker 3 (20:47):
Was this an umbrella that required your strength to push
the little slidey thing up?

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Big question? Or did you just push the button to
have it open idly? I'm a much bigger fan of
the manual umbrella.

Speaker 7 (21:05):
Sliding Brice because he's traveling. He bought the umbrella on
the road. He's not going to spend an outrageous amount
of money on us.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
Well, I mean doesn't need to close. He made the
close motion.

Speaker 3 (21:17):
That is fancy pushing the button to make it close,
but the pushing the button to just make it release
from the lever and.

Speaker 6 (21:22):
Pipe push the button. All I did was push a button.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
I saw you squeeze your hands together.

Speaker 6 (21:26):
You did one hands. I used one hand.

Speaker 4 (21:30):
I wish we could rely.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
I wish we could reply.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
Yeah, Dawson did something. He just on both his hands
and his lips.

Speaker 6 (21:37):
I might I might have done so.

Speaker 3 (21:40):
Either way, I'm just saying, you know, you'd be surprised.
It's like, you know, back in the day of flat
screen TV that it seems so expensive, but now every
TV is flat screen, it's really not that expensive. I
think similarly the umbrella game, you know, we realized it
really just takes one little release, Like the button you
push moves in the lever.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
It's not that hard to do. I don't think it's
you're expensive.

Speaker 1 (22:01):
You're right, it was. My umbrella is made by l
G which is kind of interesting too. But the so
the the button pushing one, it's just there's too many mechanics.
There's too much going on. Yeah, a lot can go
wrong with with pushing that little button at the base
of the umbrella to to let it open.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
So you're not going to pinch your finger, because that's
the problem with the sliding is you're eating.

Speaker 2 (22:26):
You're not gonna pinch it when.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
It's going up, but you're gonna pinch your finger when
you're trying to pull it back down.

Speaker 1 (22:32):
Well, I'm pretty careful about it. But it's just, yeah,
I think I think it just lasts longer, and I'm
going for something that will last. I want to I
want to give this umbrella to my son when he's
of age. I want him to pass down to his
So it's just I want I also, Yeah, when things
break like you gotta, it's just the brella could just
fall apart if the button doesn't work and nothing the button,

(22:52):
you push the button, nothing happens it it the spring
gets all loose and it the umbrella just looks like
that cup that mat drinks out of. It's just I
don't want I want my umbrella to just be a
solid piece of working functional. It's just an accessory like
that that blocks the rain, does what I asked it

(23:13):
to do, and then it gets real small and I
could stow it away in my back in my backpack,
or in or in the little tube at the lobby
of Starbucks whatever. So it there's ways I think about that,
But I'm a man I'm a manual guy anyway. So
I'm at Orlando, having a having a blast. It didn't

(23:33):
actually only rain the first day I bought. I buy
the umbrella, and it's just beautiful and sunny every other day.
But that's just how my life works.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
But that's how it goes.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Yeah, I came out with an umbrella and I had
a good time. I went to like, uh, did some
Disney stuff, Matt. I think you'd be proud of me
about that. I basically lived the life of Matt. I
I went in Orlando thinking what would Matt do?

Speaker 6 (23:56):
And did you go to Epcot?

Speaker 2 (23:58):
No?

Speaker 1 (23:59):
God on Disney though, right, like Disney Springs. I went there.

Speaker 2 (24:02):
Yeah, Disney Springs.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
There I went.

Speaker 7 (24:05):
The only reason why I like al Epcot is because
I'm an alcoholic and you can have beers around the world.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
You can't. That is completely true. They also beers at
other places in Orlando, though, so I was able to.

Speaker 7 (24:16):
Did they have beers that's not just their places in Orlando.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
Not just Epcott.

Speaker 6 (24:22):
That is awesome. Look, I'm I went to Abcott to drink.

Speaker 1 (24:26):
There's a lot of misconceptions about Orlando, and I'm here
to bust those doors wide open and just go, hey,
let me break it. Let me break down the real
or lane, all right, Not only did I go to
Disney Springs, Matt, I went to Wild Animal Kingdom or
Disney Animal Kingdom.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
I don't know that you went to Animal Kingdom.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
Freaking Animal Kingdom.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Also, that's like a zoo and a theme park all
rolled up in one.

Speaker 7 (24:52):
It's like it's a nicer zoo for the Avatar ride,
but it's not as good for the viewers because you
can't see the animal is up close. Oh I see
like I like I When we went to San Diego
when we were kids for a vacation, we went to
the Wild Animal Park and the San Diego Zoo, and
I walked out of there going, Okay, the Wild Animal Park.

(25:14):
That's great for the animals. That's if I was an animal,
that's where i'd.

Speaker 6 (25:18):
Like to be.

Speaker 7 (25:19):
But if I'm a person wanting to look at animals,
it's the zoo.

Speaker 1 (25:23):
You're you're right, DAWs in the sense that, yeah, it
it's a complete gamble when you go to these places.
I mean you go there and you're like, all right,
let's see the lines in there, going, Oh, line's are sleeping. Yea,
they're in the shade. They're sleeping, they're out of sight.
It's really up to them when they want to be
seen things like that. It's like, okay, well that sucks,

(25:45):
but it sucks for the viewer. Yeah, but for the lions,
what do they care? Gorillas by the way, total hams.
They love just being in front of everybody. But yeah,
all the animals went to Pandora hung out with the
Navvy map.

Speaker 3 (25:58):
Oh my god, I've always wanted to go on that
incredible Was it awesome?

Speaker 1 (26:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (26:03):
What is it?

Speaker 3 (26:04):
It's like, uh, I mean, Chris obviously can speak to
it in more detail. But dos if you've been on
the Indiana Jones ride at Disneyland, it's that style ride.

Speaker 2 (26:14):
But in the World of Avatar.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
That is oh okay, so that is completely incorrect.

Speaker 6 (26:19):
But oh no, I thought it was.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
Now they have two. They have two rides at uh
in Pandora for Avatar. One is more like it's a
small world or Pirates without the drops. You're just kind
of in a boat going through the water indoors and
you're seeing all the all the lights and the animatronics
and things like that.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
Did you say that you went the way of the water.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
Yeah, that's exactly right, man, You go the way of
the water. In one and the other one is like,
sorry for those who don't even know this reference, but
there's a ride at California Venture called torn Over California
so good. But this one is a three D version
of that, where you're straddling a what's called a banshee,

(27:06):
which is like those dragons that the Avatar Navi ride.

Speaker 6 (27:11):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
And you're just riding around on those and it's super
immersive and incredible.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
But it's just a giant projection screen, yeah, I.

Speaker 1 (27:20):
Mean, amongst other things.

Speaker 7 (27:21):
All right, this is one of those moments, Chris, where
I just want to drill into you. Your life would
be so much funner if you would smoke weed.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
That's a very.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Important It's pretty fun already. I mean, I don't know
how much more fun you can get. It's already.

Speaker 7 (27:34):
Oh come on, dude, man, come on, I know, and
it's awesome and super fun, so much more fun.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
High all right, Matt, I mean he does have a point.
I agree.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
We went from fifty percent Toddler to this.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
This is sixty.

Speaker 4 (27:52):
Stone.

Speaker 6 (27:54):
Let's not forget.

Speaker 7 (27:55):
I started with saying Gary is going to do a
rail of blow. That's true in his hotel room.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (28:00):
So we already.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
Speaking of Orlando. So, Matt, you were there a couple
of years ago for your convention Crime con Crime con. Yeah,
so I noticed something and I I thought it was
just me, but I had an uber driver kind of
confirmed this on my last day, which helped, but also
could have been information I could have had on the
first day. Was I'm there and I'm just I'm hanging

(28:23):
Out'm drinking water a lot because it's dude, it's hot,
it's muggy. You gotta stay hydrated because the second the
second step outside, all of your moisture just goes onto
the the exterior of.

Speaker 6 (28:33):
You're so draining. It is physically draining.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
And yeah, but it wasn't It wasn't that bad. But
I was. I was trying to stay hydrated, and I noticed,
like it's like, I think the water here tastes funny,
like it just had it tastes like well, first I
noticed it with like some of the coffee, and then
I know, and then I was like, yeah, this tappatter
tastes funny, I thought, And then I thought, and then
I thought, think it was the cups and it wasn't

(28:57):
the cups, and then and then eventually, uh, the uber
drives like, oh yeah, Orlando water is known to be terrible,
and he brought it up on his own for something
for based off something else, like.

Speaker 6 (29:08):
Well where does it? Where does it mark? On l
A Tap?

Speaker 1 (29:14):
I like, I'm fine with LA Tap, So you grew
up on it. Yeah, I've never complained about La Tap
or maybe they hate our water or people in Orlando,
but I was just like, man, this tastes like burnt
water or like I know, it's like it's like burnt
freaking wow, there's like a burnt taste to it.

Speaker 6 (29:29):
Burnt Water is my favorite folk band.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
They're opening up for INFO Con. Yeah, it's just some
festival out there pretty soon. So there. So I'm just
like what is going on? And then so I'm now
I'm buying bottles of water and I'm not a water snop.

Speaker 6 (29:45):
I'm not.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
I've We've gone over this. I'm fine with the sani.
I'm a big noble. Okay, it's like a mean only one.

Speaker 7 (29:55):
There's only one water I won't drink and it tastes
horrible and I don't know why, but arrow toilet water,
arrowhead water, that's their funniest, really fucked up taste to it.
I can't drink Arrowhead and I hate them because they're
basically just stealing California's water and bottling it and selling

(30:15):
it nationwide, like fuck.

Speaker 6 (30:16):
You, oh I water but back in the dark.

Speaker 7 (30:23):
Look, dude, if Arrowhead water tasted like water, I wouldn't
have a problem. But it's horrible water and they're stealing
it from California.

Speaker 1 (30:36):
Back in your day, Matt. Uh.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
Back on my honeymoon in Italy, we went to a
very fancy Michelin star restaurant that had a water somallier
who was like the equivalent of a wine smaller, but
could tell you about the various characteristics and qualities of

(31:02):
the sparkling waters they had on tap, and I imagine
the tap water if one were so inclined.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
Matt, I'm sorry.

Speaker 6 (31:09):
I always think it's weird when the smallian then.

Speaker 7 (31:12):
Gets to your table and he's a white guy, and
you're like, how are you?

Speaker 6 (31:16):
How are you smallian?

Speaker 1 (31:17):
That's true? That is confusing, And then if he's if
and then if he's trying to sell you water, I'm
sorry to tell you that that was just a homeless
guy that.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
He did keep saying disani over it?

Speaker 1 (31:30):
Did he offer to sell you a special cup, a
souvenir cup. Afterwards, the yes, I'm in this uber and
he's telling me that, and then he's like, ohya, that's
why Gatorade was made here, because athletes here couldn't stand
the taste of water. The Florida gator Yeah.

Speaker 6 (31:47):
Gatorade was not made there. It was made in North Florida.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
Well, he said, Florida Orlando. But the state of Florida.

Speaker 6 (31:54):
Orlando can't claim gatorade.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
Dude, he claimed Gatorade.

Speaker 6 (31:58):
Man, it's Florida Gators.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
He's a Gatorade. And then he like hit his chest
twice and like it's like shed God gave gatorade right now.

Speaker 6 (32:10):
Nice.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
But anyway, So otherwise, everyone in Orlando was wonderful. Ran
in a few bobo boys at infocom. Really they were
very excited and uh yeah, so I just want to
shout them out to and.

Speaker 7 (32:24):
Running into bobo boys. We were talking a couple of
weeks ago. Gary asked me what what my idea of
mind numbing TV is?

Speaker 6 (32:33):
And I watch a lot of stuff like.

Speaker 7 (32:34):
Gangland and lock Up and Ship like no no, like
documentaries on gangs. And I watched one the other night
on the Florida Bulldogs, which is a gang that took
their name from obviously the Florida State football team or
the mascot of Florida State.

Speaker 6 (32:54):
The Bulldogs that Georgia, and they bark, they they do.

Speaker 7 (33:00):
If we're ever in Fresno doing a show, Bobo's, don't
roll up and bark.

Speaker 1 (33:08):
Oh really, you'll give the wrong impression.

Speaker 6 (33:11):
Well no, not really, but I mean, why take the chance.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
Maybe it'll unite.

Speaker 6 (33:16):
Why take the chance, I think?

Speaker 1 (33:17):
I mean, I wouldn't mind. You know, I have another
chapter of Bobo Boys. It's just still a little for
a little protection, all right. Anyway, Matt Avatar ride was incredible.
Made me want to watch Avatar again because I realized
how long it's been. So I went and watched Avatar
this week.

Speaker 6 (33:32):
It's a shitty movie.

Speaker 1 (33:34):
It's how dare you? It's a freaking I get it.
After riding the rides, I understand it more after I've
been one of the dawston I've been there, I've been
in the sky. I know what it's like to soar.

Speaker 6 (33:46):
All right.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
No, but my fellow Navi atop the ban Cheese and
the totem, I know.

Speaker 7 (33:55):
You know, I see you Save Yourself the Trouble YouTube
Blue Man Group.

Speaker 4 (34:05):
Good.

Speaker 1 (34:06):
I mean they might be a chapter of the NAVI,
but and they're quite they're quite talented too, all right.
Look anyway, I also went to a futiki bars matt,
which I think you'd be got some drinks. Went to
one called the au Au and they had a secret
Like so.

Speaker 2 (34:22):
I was part of the NAVI experience or was this
after after?

Speaker 1 (34:25):
But I went under the impression like I just want
one drink to just give me the hardest thing you
can give me.

Speaker 6 (34:31):
A le.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
Zombie was number the night one, and it worked. That
thing is like what like a four wise men four
horsemen like in the Long Island. Yeah it is. So
it was like comically strong, but it was fine. It
didn't taste great. But then I went to this place
called the aku Aku and theirs was a secret menu

(34:53):
item that they're just like you just have to know about.
And it's called the Tiger Fucker.

Speaker 2 (35:00):
How did you find out about this?

Speaker 1 (35:01):
Someone told me to order it because I was just
looking and they heard that out. That's what I was doing, Like, Oh,
just go to the bar order the Tiger Fucker. They'll
take care of you, Okay, order. I don't care. Here's
the thing, I'm not sensitive to anything. Like today, even
someone's like, hey, Chris, do you want a sandwich? And
then at first I said yes, and then I asked
what kind of sandwich? Right?

Speaker 2 (35:23):
Like that's just at that point it's too late. You're
already in your mouth.

Speaker 7 (35:27):
Chriss, what was that? I have an ordering question for you,
and I'm only going to ask it because I know you.
When you said can I have a tigerfucker? Did you
say can I have a tiger fucker? Or did you
say can I have a tigerfucker? I?

Speaker 1 (35:45):
Number one? I went, okay, good, Yeah, I went I
went local. You gotta look you gotta seem like a local.

Speaker 5 (35:52):
You know.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
It's it's always a act as if. Yeah, Larry Larry Miller,
he told me, like whenever he goes to restaurants and
they're trying to ask him like like, oh, how spicy
do you want this? Like you know, in every place
is always different, he would look at them and just
go make it for the make it the same way
you'd make it for your mother.

Speaker 6 (36:13):
It's just just like that. The Chris locks them on
a maxim like.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
That's that's the mindset I think of when I know
when I ordered things. Anyway, it was wonderful that one
actually tasted really good. So if you're in Orlando and
you go the Aca Aca Bar, I'll tell you the
ingredients matches, because it's a you're you like this kind
of stuff. It's it's vodya got it something called passion
fruit juice. I don't know, I've never heard of it,
but passion fruit weird, brand new to my my vocabulary.

(36:43):
And then this homemade syrup that's a Jalipino BlackBerry syrup and.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
That sounds incredible.

Speaker 1 (36:51):
Oh yeah, dude, I think there. I mean, that's all
like I'm seeing online. Maybe there's other ingredients because it's
a secret item. But it was spicy, it was a
little fruity. It was definitely boozy, and it was wonderful.
Dawson did he turn his camera? Did Dawson tilts his
camera down to show.

Speaker 6 (37:09):
That he's rolling? No?

Speaker 1 (37:11):
Okay, okay, not just a little This did not happen. Okay, Well, anyway,
so that that was my Orlando experience. Wonderful. Infocom hung
out with the top pro audio equipment and gear and
people and yeah and das you gotta go next year, man,
as I said, you would you this is like all

(37:32):
the things you love about Nam This is this is
what it what it is so except it switches between
and Vegas every year. Okay, Vegas next year, buddy. And
uh yeah, maybe maybe how about this, I get a
little I get a little modest penthouse at the area
we meet there like that, I thought. At first, I

(37:54):
thought Gary said he was staying at the Vedara, which
doesn't have a cas. You know, it's right in that
it's in that neighborhood. I stayed there once. It's all sweets,
and I remember being in the pool at the Vedera.

Speaker 2 (38:09):
Getting a fucking free room from them. Keep saying the
damn name.

Speaker 1 (38:13):
Maybe I should now I just like saying it. But anyway,
So I'm at the Vidara promo code LOXI and I'm
in the No trust me, They're not gonna want me
after I tell this story. So I'm in the pool
with a bunch of my friends and we're getting uh,
you know, we're getting a little tips a and I.

Speaker 3 (38:35):
One of you is turned into a toddler, if you
know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (38:39):
And uh, and I realized I said this sometimes happens,
and it's kind of it was a while back when
I kind of just started wearing them, but I forgot
my contact lenses, and so what happened, Oh shoot, I
might have lost I may have lost connection with the boys.
Oh no, there we go.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
We're here.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
So I forget my contact lens, and but I can
see a little bit. I can I can see a
little bit. And we're in the pool and all of
a sudden, everybody's just looking up into the sky and
they're laughing, they're smiling, they're pointing. And I look and
at the second story, actually just third story because it's yeah,
third story window, there is a naked woman pressed up

(39:22):
onto the window and pressed up, pressed up, like smushed
onto onto the Florida ceiling window. And then she's approached
by a naked man behind her, and they proceed to

(39:45):
you know, oh, they proceed to engage in what what
the tigers were doing in my drink? And they're just
going and I'm like, do they know we could see them?
I can kind of see them, but it's still pretty clear.

(40:07):
And and then she starts like waving to everybody as
this is happening, and like, oh my god, they want
everybody to see. And now they're just going and then
she does the grossest thing that some people might say
is the grossest thing they've ever seen. Is she does
what is called a snail trail onto the Florida ceiling window,

(40:30):
where she presses up her her other side her another.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
Can you move your hand off the camera, Chris.

Speaker 1 (40:39):
Sorry, I'm trying to I'm trying to visual you succeeded.
And she escrapes her a part of her body down
the window and uh and just leaves this this mess
all over the window. And yeah, and that was my Vedhara.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
Yeah, you're not getting that free room. You're right, Why.

Speaker 6 (41:07):
It's like, I'm amused.

Speaker 1 (41:08):
I'm like, I wonder if Yeah, why are you not amused?
That's pretty incredible stuff.

Speaker 7 (41:14):
No, I'm not unamused by your story.

Speaker 6 (41:17):
I'm unamused by her.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
Oh you know, some people just want to watch the world.
Oh anyway, crap. Yeah, so that was that was my
vodar experience. But oh, Matt, I went to one other
bar in Orlando that I want to bring up to
you in Dawson for this instance, Becau Dawson. I'd actually

(41:40):
like this. It's called it's a cantina called Taco Bell Cantina.
Oh oh, Matt, Okay, what's wrong.

Speaker 2 (41:54):
Well, I'm still thinking of story. This is really what's
happening here.

Speaker 7 (41:58):
Is that the only one that's still exists in the nation.
This is the Taco Bell. This is the Taco Bell
shoot off, right that they actually tried to make happen.

Speaker 1 (42:07):
A shoot off.

Speaker 2 (42:08):
They stop saying shoot off.

Speaker 6 (42:10):
No Taco Bell.

Speaker 1 (42:12):
Hey, don't smear Taco Bell's name by saying.

Speaker 7 (42:14):
They tried to make these Taco bell cantinas actually work.

Speaker 1 (42:19):
Yeah, and they're trying to spread them out.

Speaker 2 (42:21):
Yeah, there's tacos everywhere.

Speaker 6 (42:23):
I think you went to the last one that exists.

Speaker 1 (42:26):
No, there are a few select cantinas I think out there.
But yeah, they're just like they're upscale taco bells that
have booze.

Speaker 6 (42:36):
And so that was the okay, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (42:39):
It's just shocking turn of events. He went from a
very cool tiki bar to I mean, was it good?

Speaker 2 (42:45):
I guess I should just.

Speaker 1 (42:46):
Say, oh, the Taco Bell it was fine. Yeah, Well
what happened was after the tiki bar we closed it.
It closed it out, and everyone's like, let's go to
Taco Bell cantina, where they have beers in a Baja
Blast cocktail, but it was last call. We didn't get blast.
What's wrong with Baja Blast is the Taco Bell signature

(43:08):
signature drink that you just when you oh, you just
want to dunk your whole mouth into it. It's so good. Anyway,
they we go out, so we leave the bar, the
te Key bar, and we start walking like five blocks
and the place is madness in downtown Orlando. It's like
you've seen the video. You've seen the videos of like
all the all the young youngins getting out of the club,

(43:30):
and they're just they just basically take over the streets.
Everyone's like filming like TikTok interviews. During them, it's all
just like.

Speaker 6 (43:42):
Go talk to a spit on that.

Speaker 1 (43:43):
That's what I'm saying. Yeah, that's probably. It's like it's
like that scene where all this originated, and now I'm
just walking through this sea of people trying to get
to Taco Bell. And by the way, the inside of
Taco Bell is exact same thing. And I've never felt
like more like a narc in my whole life. And
I'm not you know, you guys, you guys do your
thing whatever, But man, I just that's when I really

(44:06):
thought I'm too old. I'm too old for the ship.
But wild, wild scene, and it was it was very
It was just funny being being in that environment that
I've seen on social media so often. But anyway, talk
about Cantina didn't have any drinks, but I do. Look,
if anyone have the Baja Blast cocktail, let me know

(44:26):
what you thought, because I am I'm curious myself. All right, Look,
we got a lot of other stuff to get to.
Maybe we save it for Patreon. I do have a
This Is How You Remind Me? As well? Why don't
we finish the show off with This Is How You
Remind Me? And then we'll we'll start a Patreon recording.
You guys down, Yeah, let's do it. Let's freaking this.

Speaker 7 (45:00):
Sorry, I was waiting on a different story.

Speaker 6 (45:06):
Sorry I did jump the beat on that one. Dude,
All good, All right.

Speaker 3 (45:11):
So this installment of This Is How You Remind Me
is from September two thousand and nineteen, in an episode
called Jurassic Park Shushing and Disney Plus. And I'll just
say that, you know, people have been sending in clips
and I am collecting the clips that people are sending

(45:31):
in But I'm also listening for stuff too, And I
recently went to a concert which I can tell you
guys about on Patreon. But I just happened to be
listening to a clip where Chris went to a concert,
and as usual, he tries to tell a story, and
you know, everyone's cutting him off. But this is a

(45:52):
good one that I think we might all enjoy.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
Here we go, We're at the John Merrick concert and
there are these women behind us, behind me in gen
and they are just having the loudest effing conversation, just
trying to just making awful jokes, talking about her, uh,
the siatica during the center and her hip, her bad hip. Yeah,
and just and even during this intimate acoustic songs, they're
just they're just yapping away, just yapping sciatica exactly.

Speaker 2 (46:17):
That's right, really mine too.

Speaker 1 (46:19):
That's right. They weren't. They weren't as have you tried?

Speaker 6 (46:24):
It gives me the cramp.

Speaker 1 (46:25):
They weren't as stool.

Speaker 3 (46:27):
And speaking of stools, did you see those stools that
target Oh my god, they were on sale.

Speaker 1 (46:33):

Speaker 6 (46:51):
Oh, there's a lot of blacks here.

Speaker 3 (46:53):
Huh, whoa, that's what they said.

Speaker 1 (47:00):
Pull that, I see, I see how we just took
that ripcord, just yanked it right.

Speaker 6 (47:07):
Off on pack.

Speaker 7 (47:08):
You know, since my last name is Dawson, you should
start calling me Derail.

Speaker 1 (47:15):
You know that's that is a pretty aptic name that
I think about it now, I remember that, you know.
I think you guys are pretty accurate with your reenactment
because it brought me back to that. I felt like
I was there, so not too far off, not too
far off. But thanks for that clip, Matt, appreciate it.

Speaker 6 (47:30):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (47:31):
All right, Well, why don't we go ahead and get
ready for Patreon where by the way, in Patreon, I
shall announce the movie that we have to watch for
ye get.

Speaker 2 (47:40):
To watch, have to watch. You're the one in charge
of it, have to watch?

Speaker 1 (47:46):
Correct? That's right? All right? So, uh, why don't we
go around the horn and get our plugs and we'll
get started with our Patreon episodes. I'll start all the
way in Austin, Texas, Matt, what could we plug for you?

Speaker 3 (47:58):
I mean again Patreon dot com slash water cooler five
bucks a month. You get twice the show and if
you don't like it, you know stop. But I think
you're gonna like it, so you should try it out
and we would really appreciate the support.

Speaker 1 (48:11):
Totally agree. And then Dawson, what about you.

Speaker 7 (48:15):
I got a lot here, so hang on with me.
This is a big weekend of comedy shows for me.
Thursday night, I'm doing a show in Santa Barbara and
I know that Melissa Birch Bobo Boy Girl.

Speaker 6 (48:28):
Is going to join us in Santa Barbara.

Speaker 7 (48:31):
Then Saturday night, I'm at the ice House and it's
me and four other comedians, so it's a real show
and I get a long time. That's at the ice
House in Pasadena. And then Sunday night, I'm on a
show with three comedians.

Speaker 6 (48:46):
I get more time.

Speaker 7 (48:48):
I'm opening up for a dude named Darren Carter. He's
fucking hilarious. He beat boxes. He beat boxes in his show,
and his like ending thing is he'll beat box, does
it really well and he's like, I like my, women
like I like my And then somebody in the crowd
goes taxes and then he'll be like you know, always

(49:11):
do on the fifties, it's something funny.

Speaker 1 (49:16):
That was the worst play.

Speaker 7 (49:19):
No, there was a there was a viral video of
him going around where Bobby Lee was talking about how
he hates to have an unenergetic opener and he's like,
you need Darren Carter party starter and that's that's the
dude I'm opening up for. That's in torrents On in

(49:39):
the South Bay on Sunday night. Then the second I
wanted to let you guys know, you know I work
these rock cruises right well, the next one I'm doing.
The next one I'm doing leaves out of Boston and
goes north to Canada, and the Alan Parsons Project is
on it. E l O minus Jeff is on it,

(50:01):
Ambrosia is on it, minus Salad. Also salid I thought
that's good because I thought you said also solid.

Speaker 6 (50:11):
I hope that's what you met because it was brilliant, okay, good, and.

Speaker 7 (50:18):
I have been given a lot more opportunity and freedom
because usually we pack all of these bands and all
of this stuff into a five day cruise. This cruise
is seven days. Oh and there's a lot of downtime,
and so the bosses are like, okay, hosts, who's got ideas.
I am developing a lyric game show right now that

(50:41):
we're going to do live on the thing. And I
also got approved to do DJ sets over MTV music
videos on the big screen. Cool, so I'll be doing
the toolbox stuff and the fun radio stuff, but you're
going to be able to see all of the music videos.

Speaker 6 (50:59):
And I've got god, I got like two.

Speaker 7 (51:02):
Thousand music videos from MTV in the in the eighties
with all the bumpers too. I got Dennis Leary talking
about don't do drugs.

Speaker 6 (51:11):
I wanted, you know, all that stuff that's going to
be fun.

Speaker 7 (51:17):
That cruise leaves in August, and I know a lot
of people listen to the show in New England. You
don't have to fly, you don't have to do shit.
You got to come up with a certain amount of money.
But you can put four people in one room. A
room on a cruise ship is just where you sleep,

(51:37):
so it doesn't matter if it's you know, in the
middle of the ship. You don't need windows. In fact,
you want a dark room to sleep it off. But
the cruise is called on the Blue and if any
of you Bobo boys come, I know.

Speaker 6 (51:53):
That the issues.

Speaker 7 (51:57):
Bobo Boys surprised me on one of my crewis and like, hey,
my god. Fuck oh, but uh, check it out. It's
on the Blue Cruise dot Com. Look at the lineup.
If you're in New England, check it out.

Speaker 6 (52:15):
It's going to be a shitload of fun this.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
Year, dude. Speaking of four guys piling into one cabin
and a cruise, I remember.

Speaker 6 (52:24):
Oh, also real quick, Chris matt Sure.

Speaker 7 (52:26):
Last night, for the first time ever, I watched pop
Star Never Stopped, Never Stopped.

Speaker 6 (52:34):
So good and what a joy pop Stars, what a fantastic.

Speaker 2 (52:41):
It was seriously underrated.

Speaker 3 (52:42):
I don't think people understand how front of the movie
a great fucking movie.

Speaker 1 (52:46):
Yeah, speaking of four guys piling into one cabin and
a cruise, I remember walking back into to my cabin
like it was like a bachelor part or something at
like two am, and I just see outside of the
door three guys in the hall just sitting on the
floor with like their knees to their chins, just like
sitting there like you guys are right, like, yeah, boy
gots a girl, and they're just like just chill. It

(53:08):
up the room man. You guys are good friends, all right. Well,
as for my plug, I'd like to plug Avatar and
the Vodara Hotel. So check those things out.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
Yeah, you really owe them one.

Speaker 6 (53:25):
After that story, Matt, I feel like should be.

Speaker 1 (53:34):
I think Avatar Vidara is opening for INFO Con as well,
so I think, yeah, they might have a double maybe
they have two openers in that festival. So all right,
Well anyway, we're gonna get start with the Patroon Show.
Thanks again everybody for hanging out with us. We'll see
