Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well that did not work out. Well, I was gonna
do something today, and I'll be honest with you, I
was kind of excited for it. Really yeah, I swear
by it, but it ended up getting a little too
sketchy for me when I decided to not get my

(00:20):
flu shot. We ain't done yet.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
It's time for the podcast over a.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Year, completely uncensored and unacting filtered except for that part
the show's after show starts. Now. Yeah, you know, I
I swear by this flu shot. I've been sick in
like two years.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
To how the time I was sick.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
But it doesn't cover every stretch.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Nothing old, nothing, nothing comes by me. Nothing.

Speaker 3 (00:54):
I haven't thrown up in thirty years. The fact that's
not because so when your kids got stomach sick, you
never got like a stomach flu from them, a stomach.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
Book and over the time that they've been alive, of course.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
But you just didn't throw up, streak. It's one of
the more incredible things I've ever heard.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
I don't even think that's possible, like stomach flu.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
I don't know what to tell you, but.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
You've had to come out of one end right, Oh yeah,
I'd rather have diaryal all day overthrow.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Of course it was nothing. Yeah, that's why I don't
do it. I mean, good choice.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
I sometimes forces me.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
I can't control it.

Speaker 4 (01:34):
I don't think that's a thing.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
Then explain to me how I haven't thrown up in
thirty years, Emily, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
Okay, Well, I wonder what the record is. The Guinness
Book World.

Speaker 5 (01:43):
Record is, like, is there someone who's never thrown up
their entire life?

Speaker 1 (01:46):
I don't know that. Being crazy, maybe I could finally
get in the Guiness Book of World Records for no,
not puking. Honestly, this would be but I can't document it.
How do I document it?

Speaker 6 (01:54):
So do you even get to the point where you're like, oh,
I get super nauseous?

Speaker 1 (01:58):
I think, yeah, my mouth starts to fill up with
water and I'm like, oh god, I gotta lay down,
and then it just goes away.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
Wow, that's incredible.

Speaker 6 (02:06):
Do you think if you were to go, like to
the toilet and be like, okay, I feel better if
I threw up to.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
Feel and if you're already feeling that water, you probably
you dry heaved.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Yeah, I've probably gagged before. I don't know. No, No,
to the point of where I'm about to pew, but
nothing's coming up. No, I really get to that point.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
That's incredible.

Speaker 6 (02:26):
I like feel right now like I have to throw
up just talking about this, so I don't.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
But last two or three weeks streak, I swear by
this flu shot. I wasn't a big flu shot guy
in my life because in years past it hasn't gone
so well. No, I had gotten two flu shots before,
and both of the times I randomly did him on
the air. Yes, one time I did it. Yeah, one

(02:53):
time I did it. I forget where I was and
I did it, and I felt sick immediately and I
was like down for the count And then the second
time was a random thing that was going on in
the building and they asked me, do you want to
get the flu shot on the air, And I said,
fuck it, Yeah, sure, a badass do it. Instantly regretted

(03:14):
it because I was fucking sick again that night. For
I was just down for the county. It was you
could slowly see me go downhill because I did it.
I don't even remember. It was like seven a m.
By the end of the show. I was fucking done.

Speaker 6 (03:29):
The only thing I can compare it to for Emily
and Thor who weren't here at the time. Is you
know when Eddie eats a massive fucking burrito, like heats
way too much and then you just start seeing it
on his face where he's like slumping down It that
did happen on the floor, So that's what it was.
He was not good, but a lot more miserable.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
Yeah, so me and the flu shot did not get
along well, and I knew it, so I stopped getting
them and I was like, forget it.

Speaker 5 (03:54):
You were an anti for a while.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yeah, a little bit, yeah, and then okay, yeah, seriously,
I uh then randomly got peer pressured into it by
my doctor. He's like, no, you gotta get the flu and.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
The doctor that would not use a glove.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
No, he's retired, and miss him.

Speaker 5 (04:13):
You miss him.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Touches junk, those soft hands man soft. Oh yeah, I
don't know. It was something magical about him. Didn't mind
him touching my balls, didn't mind it. All was this
sexual you know, you got you got checked out of
the gutter. You got to do the cough. Might as
well be warm. We'd rubber gloves balls, I know would

(04:37):
would be into that. Oh yeah, uh no, this is
this is a different doctors.

Speaker 6 (04:45):
Like, that's too far out of everything we say in
this room, that's too far.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
This doctor was very he's very by the book, and
so he's checking all his boxes and all this ship
and so he's like, no, you're at the age, man,
you got to get a shot. And I was like,
I don't want to, but fine, do it. And I
did it and I was fine. And then that whole year,
not even a sniffle.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Even you didn't even get the Emily variant. No, she
comes in her sick, all.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Nothing, nothing. So then last year I went, I gotta
do this again. It worked so well the first time.
I was immune to everything. Everything I said it, give
it to you again, give me the jab, give me
the jab. And this year have I been sick. Not once,
not one day.

Speaker 3 (05:30):
We're gonna be entering flu season pretty soon.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Not for me. I was good.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
It doesn't last forever.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
That's good for the year. For the year. January one
did January. That's how it works. I think that's how
it works. I'm not really sure. I'm not really sure.
And I didn't get it on January one, so.

Speaker 5 (05:46):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
I don't think I went in. I don't think I
went in, so I'm good. Okay. Well, about two weeks ago,
we had a random person that works in the building
come into every studio and said, hey, we're doing this
whole flu shot segment on our show. Would any of
you guys on your show want a free flu shot

(06:10):
and whatever? And immediately I went, oh, right here, I
gotta get ready for twenty twenty six and become immune
to the flu, Thank you very much.

Speaker 3 (06:23):
I just googled it flu showing the last six months.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
Not throwing, and so I knew I was due. I
knew I'm due, and so I raised it.

Speaker 3 (06:38):
Yeah it's been over six months.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Yeah right, So I raised my hand, I'm in four
surprisingly said uh, yeah, yeah, I'm down. I'll take I'll
take the flu shot. Really well. He's about to have
a baby, baby, Ryan got to got to make sure
you're good. So I was a little surprised, but okay.
And so they told us that it's going to go
down last Friday. And then that Friday morning came, they

(07:02):
came in and I was like, oh fuck, it's flu
shot time. Here we go. It's kind of pumped, oh pumped.
And she let us know that all the person that
had to cancel, and they're not doing it. They're going
to do it the falling Friday.

Speaker 5 (07:15):
And do you remember why she said they had to cancel.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
They got the flu literally they got.

Speaker 5 (07:20):
She said, they quote got sick.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
They called second that part. Yeah, I didn't take their
own advice. Should have taken their own advice. Stupid.

Speaker 6 (07:30):
Great, Well, maybe they thought it lasted a year and
then they exploor.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
Guy, maybe they took the flu shot that morning and
then it affected them and that's made it happened.

Speaker 5 (07:41):
I said a hard no thank you to that fla.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
We know. I wasn't even going to bring that up
because I don't want to hear your weird thought. I'm
not getting shots, so uh to your point. Then later
on in the week came back in, you guys down
for the flu shot again on Friday, and I said yes,
thor then backed out, gave him too long to think

(08:05):
about it. Yeah, and then he decided no, I.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Last time I got the flu shot, I felt like
not great a couple of hours later, but only for
a short period of time. I want to go to
the gym today. So I knew if I got the
flu shot, I wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Go to the gym, it would just be an excuse.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
Not the last the last two times I got it nothing.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
So so I already know my schedule for next week.
So my hope is to get the flu shot at
the like a flu shot place on Tuesday or Wednesday
shot because I'm not place like Kaiser or something the
flu shots all the time, So I know I'm not
working out Wednesday, so I'll probably go Tuesday.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
So you are going to get one.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
Yeah, my wife's making me because of the baby.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
Oh, I just don't give a fuck.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
I don't know, you're well, you get sick all the baby.
So today was the day that I'm supposed to get
this flu shot, and I, you know, the first couple
hours of the show haven't heard anything. I was like, oh,
I guess this isn't happening again. And then about I
don't know what time was that, like eight o'clock or
eight thirty ish, I went to the bathroom and I

(09:05):
came back in and was it you Jamie that said
I have paperwork or something? Somebody dropped off paperwork.

Speaker 3 (09:11):
Yeah, this person came in and dropped the paperwork.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah. So I had to fill out a form, which
made me uncomfortable. I don't know where is this flu
shot coming from. I gotta sign a waiver, Like, well,
I think so, I mean, I don't know what's going
on here. What's going on here? I thought you're just
gonna come in jab me.

Speaker 3 (09:28):
Out, get my information.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Yeah, I don't know you my doctor. I think they
have to keep track of you, Jack, you win, my doctor.
But I don't know what's going on here.

Speaker 5 (09:35):
I think we need to keep records of where the
jobs go.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
Probably, but it kind of sketched me out a little,
really asking for your social I don't know what they wanted.
I haven't even looked at it. I threw it over.
Uh oh yeah, no way. Yeah. Well I don't even
have any of this stuff my primary care uh and
phone number, and I don't have any information. Yeah, medical insurance,

(10:01):
get out of here. I'm not doing that. So I
don't know who this is. I don't know what. I
don't know what's going on. And so I was like, Okay,
now now I'm getting a little weird by that. You're
a little weird about it, but I still was going
to do it. Yeah, But then I go out again
and I see the person who is administering the flu shots.

(10:23):
And now I don't know what the fuck is going on.

Speaker 5 (10:26):
I haven't seen this person.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
I don't know what the fuck is going on.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
You didn't see this person.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
I haven't seen It's game. I'm not going to tell
you again or else, skin suit pal, you earn me right,
I'll do the cutting.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
Wow, and he's gonna come in here women's lingerie and
chainsaw fuck.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
Okay, put some respect on that man's name.

Speaker 6 (10:54):
You're joking you need Yeah, you're to sensitized.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
Yeah, visiting tonight. Okay. So I go out there and
it basically is ed Gane, Like, I don't know what
the up with this guy, Like, I'm assuming it's going
to be a doctor or medical or a lab coat
picturing to You.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
Could put a lab corn on anybody and I'll trust
them more.

Speaker 1 (11:23):
Honestly, I don't. I don't know what. I don't know
what the fuck is if you had a lab coat on. Okay,
shoot me up, man.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
I feel like when you graduate medical school, you get
the lab coat.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
The scope. Yeah, those your party gift. Yeah. So I'm confused.
I'm like that that can't be, can't be the person
who's actually doing it. But there's only one person in
the room and they're standing in front of like a
box of that scenes.

Speaker 3 (11:49):
I guess, yeah, Sky must have been like, that's the devil.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
Autism job. But I don't. I'm confused. The man that
was sitting there is wearing like a full blown black suit,

(12:18):
like he's going to a funeral. It was a wool suit, yeah,
a wolf suit. And I'm like, wait, that guy's administering
the flu shot.

Speaker 5 (12:26):
Freaking out, Why are you dressed like that?

Speaker 1 (12:29):
I don't know. It really threw me up.

Speaker 3 (12:32):
Maybe he's just being professional.

Speaker 5 (12:35):
But being professional in the medical world is a lap.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
If you walked into your doc doctor's wearing suits, brother
will wear suits, probably with the lab coat over it.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
Right, Maybe I don't he would never walk in seeing
a patiment just wearing.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
If he If he came to this building and he
was like doing something medically, he wears a suit.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Uh, that's weird. You're a doctor. You you where your uniform?

Speaker 3 (13:01):
Wait, is uniforms? Just the lab coat or scrubs. He's
not gonna come any wearing scrubs.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
It's very comfortable. I would love to, I'd be sweet.

Speaker 4 (13:10):
I I scurry around the building quite a bit mister commercial.

Speaker 5 (13:15):
Yeah you need to play.

Speaker 4 (13:17):
I made it out there.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
Yeah you don't need to.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
Well you did. You got to hear last second and
did the commercial.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
Scurry sturry. I wasn't aware I was.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
Anymore.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
She was gonna blame me.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
I've never seen what did Jamie do? He found you, you.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Scurry.

Speaker 5 (13:37):
He ran around the building to find you.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
Yeah, he found you.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
I was daughter is gonna drop it and not tell you.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
That's true. You've never been more mad at anything in
your life, which didn't even affect him. I was just
like about it. Bts by the way talking, I start
to look at that stuff.

Speaker 6 (14:00):
I can't be.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
That's not what happened.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
So, yeah, this happen because I did happen.

Speaker 3 (14:16):
First of all, I said I didn't.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
I didn't say it like that. That's a lot.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
I didn't say it was I didn't.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
Say it was worse. Even had to talk to be responsible.

Speaker 5 (14:25):
I didn't have to talk with Jamie, so this wouldn't help.

Speaker 6 (14:28):
I'm like, hey, maybe you can send Emily her times
like you send them to me, so horrible.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
I didn't freak the funk out because technically it's also
my fault because I didn't remind you.

Speaker 5 (14:39):
So then said, this isn't on me, This isn't my fault.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
Are you saying it's.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
It's because it's because it doesn't because I'll get the email.
I'll get the email, and I'll get the email about like.

Speaker 4 (14:56):
But you know that the minute I figured this out,
I was going to send an email to the bosses
and everybody.

Speaker 3 (15:01):
I mean, I'm not I didn't act like this.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
This is bullshit, scry scurry ladies. I'm around, that's right,
scraying around.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
And so I saw this guy maybe before you did,
or maybe after it does about her he was He
was like, no, he was like an odd looking like person.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Like I.

Speaker 4 (15:23):
Like what I meant as somebody that you know, okay,
I should do. What the point was so threw me off,
is the amount of colony was wearing.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
No, did you smell it?

Speaker 1 (15:32):
Well, yes, obviously it was. It was potent, and I
have an issue with smells and any kind of colone
of perfume. And so I was like, so this guy,
who I don't trust already, is gonna is gonna give
me a vaccine and I I won't, And I'm immediately
I'm going to be down for the count because if
I smell this guy, I'm done.

Speaker 5 (15:51):
You're gonna get immediate head.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
So I'm already screwed. And so all of these factors
made me go, I don't think I could do it.
I don't want to. I don't want it from this guy.
I'm like, like, it's weird. And so the person that
was kind of in charge of this whole thing popped
their head in right towards the end of the show
and they're like, oh are you are you going to come?

(16:12):
You're the last one they're waiting for you. And I
I think I handled it really well. I wasn't I
well you scurring? I said, oh man, and I looked
like I was typing something, and I go, oh man,
I just haven't had a second to you can make
it over there. I'm so I'm so busy. I go,

(16:33):
you know what, I go, you know what, if he's
waiting for me, don't don't tell him not to wait,
like I don't want to make him. I don't want
to make him wait.

Speaker 5 (16:41):
He's considerate.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
And then she goes, no, no, he'll wait a little bit.
Do you think you can make it up? I go,
I just I don't know, why.

Speaker 5 (16:50):
Are you throwing up your hands. What's down there? Why
do you take your headphones on?

Speaker 1 (16:55):
And because I know I'm about to. No, no, I'm
about to, you know what? Just Tom, Tom, thank you,
but please don't wait for me. Please don't wait for me.

Speaker 3 (17:04):
And then he and then he was like, and then
Emily missed the spot
