Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well, guys, I feel like I have a pretty good life.
I feel like I'm doing okay. But my life is
now gone to a way better level because my seven
and a half foot tall Chewbacca is here.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Oh god, Eddie, and are you kidding me? He is
awesome to the life better.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
You're not even just better. That's an unders that's an
understatement of the century. It's so much more fulfilled, fulfilled,
and like I don't I didn't realize this was what
I needed in my life to complete it. I'm not joking.
I'm not joking. What are you about to say when
(00:48):
I am dead and gone? I want that Chewbacca buried
next to me.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
How's it going to fit?
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Well, it's separate. I have to have its own separate
because it's so big. Your wife, me Chewbacca.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
So Chirwaka lies in between the two.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Of you for all as close to me as possible,
because he is awesome.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
It seems a little bit pricey too, Eddie. I mean,
caskets are very expensive.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I'll save it. I'll start saving. I'll start saving for it.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Like I know, back in like Egyptian days and stuff,
they would have like statues of like cats and stuff
buried with them to try and to bring them good
luck in the after life.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
And to keep them companies.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
That's that's used.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
I hear that. Yes, So I mentioned last week that
I pulled the trigger and bought something that is unusual
for me. But I had to do it when I
saw that they home Depot is selling a seven and
a half foot animated Chewbacca. It's and it's Christmas comes
(02:00):
with a candy cane and a Christmas hat. And I
saw it and I went, I have to have it.
I have to have this. This is like everything I've
ever wanted, everything you've ever I mean, if it would
have just been a regular Chewbacca, I would have bought it,
like kick ask amazing, But a Christmas Chewbacca. I mean,
just take my money, take.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
It, take it all, take it all, just all of it.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
And I did it, and I and I was very excited.
And it arrived over the weekend. Unfortunately I was busy
on over the weekend and on Monday, and so yesterday
was my first day I got. I had to get
open up the box and get after this thing.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
If you don't mind me asking, I forgot how much
this bad boy costs.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
I don't understand why that's relevant. I feel like I
don't understand why that.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
When I bought a standing machine during COVID, you guys
asked me how much it costs?
Speaker 1 (02:49):
No, No, you are freely open of telling people what
you pay for things, okay, and you want to know
what things cost. Okay. I feel like three hundred and
fifty bucks a little pricey for me, but I would
have paid quadruple once I once I saw this, what
(03:10):
dot want to put it?
Speaker 3 (03:11):
A grand price? Tagle all that bad done?
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Tell you? Wow?
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Do you know what i'derstand? Take my money, take my money,
take it, take it. That's why my wife saw knows
how much you love to cook. So she saw the
Chewbacca thing, heard about it, and says, why doesn't he
just buy a trigger? Because he's always says he wanted
I want the blackstone, he really wants, watched them both
so much the.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Price he purchases.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Years yeah, really like Her first reaction was, why doesn't
he just buy the tragger black sale to seventy five cheaper?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
This brings me so much more joy a trigger or
a blackstone? Come on, man, like again, I get it? Okay,
So I put the thing together, and it's it's massive.
You don't understand what seven foot five is until you
stand next to it. When you stand next to it,
(04:14):
it doesn't make sense. It's so big.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Now because it's so big, was it hard to put together?
Was it difficult?
Speaker 1 (04:22):
I'll be honest with you. Mainly my wife did it.
She did. She's way more at that kind of stuff. Well,
when you have directions and there's no words and it's
just pictures, I'm out. I gotta have words, Like I'm
a word man.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
I don't need the words.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
I'm the opposite because you either are a picture person
or a word person. I'm a word person. She's a
picture person. So she did it. Really, I gotta give
her full credit.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Because that thing could be like two massive pieces you
snap together, or that thing could literally be like eight
hundred pieces to put together.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
It's about eight hundred pounds. I'll tell you that. It's
pretty heavy. It's it's incredible.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
So it's something you'd find it Disney.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
No, it's it's animatronics. I mean it is crazy the
way it looks. So the thing gets put together, I
am beyond thrilled. And just so you know, it's motion censored.
So you move anywhere near it and it starts to
talk to you and it's nothing. It's nothing Christmas. Really,
(05:19):
all of his Christmas is is that candy cane in
the hat because he just makes you know, chewie sounds.
And but I love it. Like one point he has
a laugh and I'll like tell him a joke and
he'll laugh, and it's like this is a drinking truth
is this is everything I've ever wanted in my life.
And so I'm very excited, you know, to show my kids.
(05:41):
And they come over and check it out. And immediately
my daughter Taylor goes, no, no, I don't like it.
It's really creepy. And I go, it's creepy. He goes,
it's eyes. Look at its eyes. They're creeping me out.
And I go, hey, shut up, shut up to her.
You don't. You don't speak that way to chewing for
(06:02):
you and you will show him respect.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
You know who she thinks she is.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Yeah, it really bothered me, but this is a bigger
family member, well clearly. And then my son Jack comes
over and he goes, is that coming in the house?
What do you mean? What do you mean? Yeah, so
right now it's in my game room and eventually it's
going to be part of the Christmas decorations in the house.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
I did zoom in on his eyes right now, piercing
a scary piercing blue.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
But he's the sweetest guy.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
I didn't catch if you said it is it heavy? Yeah,
it's pretty heavy, really heavy. So it takes two people
to move probably, and he I mean he's seven five.
I don't think I can move around shack. You know,
I can't do it. And so he's coming in the
house and they are. My daughter is like, okay, well,
what if I get up in the middle of the
night and he goes off, I'm gonna scream. I go, well,
(07:01):
I'll put him off every night. Then you know what
it is? Yeah, I mean, can we stop with your man?
Speaker 4 (07:06):
Well?
Speaker 1 (07:06):
And it's also like Jack is like worried that he's
gonna see him and not realize he's there. And then
I think, he's a guy here.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
You're gonna know?
Speaker 4 (07:16):
You will you think you will, you will, Well, I'm
telling you differently when you're half asleep. I have skeletons
that I put out front for Halloween, and we just
I'm starting to get my stuff out and there's this
one little late the lady, the French Maid, if you
will anyway, she's on our front porch right now, while
before I figure out where to put her, and she's
just sitting there. But when you see like a dark
silhouette of something where there's not normally a dark silhouette,
(07:38):
it's scared.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
It starts, with all due respect, you think you're gonna
get taken every morning, so your man has to watch
you get in your car. So I feel like cat
children are more brave than.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
To Chili.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
My neighbor chili dog Tim last right, and he said,
you're putting those dang things out again, And I said, yeah,
it goes.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Those things scare the crap.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Out of me all the time when he's making the chili.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
When he's making chill, I can't I understand.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
He's very concerned about your made skeleton. Is amatrono too? Right?
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (08:07):
So motion censored. Yes, you have ever been startled by that? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Absolutely, it scares me because I startled by anything. I
do get started. And she's she's a self proclaimed coward.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
She said it.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
She's a coward.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
But I'm telling you, he gets Robert sometimes to the
my man the little lady will get him.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
He'll be like, like, you'll forget that it's there telling you.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Well, my plan is to kind of unplug him every night. Okay,
you know, I turn off the tree, turn off that. Yeah,
that makes sense, you know. And so he's not going
to make noise. Now he is going to be standing,
you know, a dark room in the dark room in
the corner with those piercing blue But I love him. Yeah,
I mean, you're no.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Seven five person that's going to be standing and you're
living around.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
When the bull comes running out, you know.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
So this guy if you're if you bought something like
this and your door in how fast.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Oh it would end up in like a part of
the house where it's I would probably return it if
it was that expensive and it was scaring people.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
But it's so stupid.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Yeah, that's that thing's freaky, dude, Eddie, We've talked about this.
They're not freaky.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Picture of its eyes beautiful.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
It's like they also have a Darth Vader and an
R two D two and a Stormtrooper. Are you going
to get the whole crew?
Speaker 1 (09:26):
So, now that it's up and you see the enormity
of him, which, by the way, you can go to
my instagram if you want to see Chewbaka in his
full form Eddie the Show on Instagram and you could
see what he looks like. Yeah, it's it's a lot,
a lot, I admit it, I admit it. Yeah, he's
bigger than I thought. Yeah, and I but I love
(09:48):
him more than anything.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
And please stop saying more than I.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Told Debra you know, I'd like to get the rest
of the crew, and she she is like, well, even
if you keep them over here in the game room,
you don't have room for those, like, because I have
other stuff in there. Yeah, I have. I feel like
I kind of do.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Yeah, I mean because it's the Darth Vader. Wan's seven
feet tall. I feel like you feel that. And then
the Stormtrooper one is six feet a little shorter.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
A little short for at Stormtrooper.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Okay, the coolest one of the R two D two one.
We got it, but it's sold out.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
I'll get it. I'll put my name in for it.
I'll go you ben pay a million dollars.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Are they supposed to be exterior decorations?
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Because they are so massive.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
I don't know who has a house that could like fit.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
I would never put you in the elements in that
element never never never.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
What about a covered porch?
Speaker 1 (10:49):
No, I don't think.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
I would want to put those outsides because I'm afraid
somebody would steal it.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Yeah, that's another good point.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
That's a really good point, you know, because there's so defensive.
I wouldn't want to put that outside.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Question we found out I think you mentioned. I remember
it was on the air off there that you did
find out that the candy cane does come out of
his hands?
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Yes, and the Christmas hat.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
Do you think you're going to ever take that off
and like maybe put something else in there, like a
lightsaber or whatever that lightsaber?
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Does he use a lightsaber? Maybe I'll get a crossbow
US cross bow?
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (11:24):
I thought he uses a laser gun, dude, And they're
not laser guns. Come on, guys, the blasters.
