there was an opportunity and you were bringing nothing.
And I just thought,

There's a real... Chew on that glass, dude.
Oh, please, that glass is what I needed, man.
I needed that glass.
I've been chewing on Tiger Dots all day.
I needed that glass.
It's great because sometimes you'll sit there for 15 minutes.
I know.
Which is a point I've brought up so many times, the listeners are probably tired of it.
No, come on.
They're listening.
Yeah, they're listening.
This is the one you're listening to.
It is the one they're listening to.
It'd be fun to introduce yourself to a new neighbor and be like, hi, I'm Zach.
I'm the neighbor you're meeting.
Just for real.
Andrew, you should maybe do that.
That could be like a funny stand-up thing.
Hi, I'm Andrew LeSean.
I'm the stand-up comedian you're currently watching.
You just look in their window.
Hi, I see you're eating those cookies I baked you.
Just walk away.
The present from your neighbor that I am.
You're just a narrator.
Thug narrator.

The zombie just had to go nuts.
How long were you in the escape room?
An hour.
The zombie just had to be,
and we did it,
you know,
we smoked it to the filter.
We got the whole hour
out of the deal.
And is this a real zombie?
It's not a real zombie.
Okay.
They talk to you,
they talk to you like
there's one person in the group
who's probably on the fence
if it's a real zombie or not.
Oh, really?
They talk to you like that. They're like, no, they're not going to hurt you's a real zombie or not oh really they talk to you like that they're like no this they're not gonna hurt you the zombie

of these like they're not escape rooms but they're like extreme haunted houses where people get like
yes i think it sounds fucking awesome yeah when they like grab you and shit i'd love it yeah i've
heard stories where it's like yeah just really crazy stuff i punched a man when i was a kid in a haunted house
we got we could not go back to that haunted house he i was like eight years old so my dad would do
this thing with me and my sister where he'd be like we're gonna oh i need to go get milkshakes
you guys go want to get milkshakes and we're like yeah and then he would just take us to a haunted
house wow so one we came in and a guy popped out and he got real close and i just punched him in the nuts yuck
so at one point at one point during the haunted house were you like is this a milkshake like when
did you figure out oh i have to beat up all the men in here to get my that's how i get the milkshake
oh who misunderstands milkshakes, me or my dad? I feel like he tries to give me milkshake-like his love and approval, but he just keeps taking me to abandoned places with fears.
This McDonald's is crazy.
I feel like I would, yeah, I would be way bummed out if he was like, we're going to get milkshakes.
And it was like, we have to walk through a room full of improv actors.
Yes.

yeah uh i don't yeah i haven't fucked with haunted houses that much i love a haunted house we went
to that we did the griffith hayride last oh yeah i did it was so sick yeah because this was like
this is where all of the people who want to be actors and actresses, this is where they all live.
So the people that are working there, they're giving it their, like, this is my shot.
I mean, yeah, they are acting like there is a Hollywood agent in every age.
Like Spielberg is on the hayride.
Listen, the Baldwin brothers just interchange every year.
There's at least one working the hayride.
They just think it's going to be George Lucas.
Stop it.
Turn the lights on. Who is that person? Who's that guy with's going to be George Lucas. Stop it. Turn the lights on.
Who is that person?
Who's that guy with the chainsaw in the bushes?
Get out here.
Get out here.
We are bringing back Qui-Gon.
I can't stay on the phone long right now.
I'm in a haunted hayride.
I know we need somebody to play Wolfman number three,
but I don't know where we're going to...
Wait a minute!
Get over here!
Yeah, that's exactly what it was like.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sober week in Portland.
Sober week in Portland.
Fun stuff.
Wild, wild stuff.
It's different.
It's different without the goggles on, you know?
Yeah.
It's still a great city, but it's, you know.
It is still a great city.
It's the best.
It's a great city that is currently losing its playoff game by so much.
That's right, Trailblazer fans.
It's the kind of podcast that is losing it. I don't
give a fuck. I'm doing this podcast during
the Blazers' third playoff game.
And they're blowing it so hard, I don't even feel bad.
We're going to have to start calling it a layoff game.
A layoff. Two nights ago
when they played in Portland for game two,
there became a point where we were watching
in the living room where I was like,
I saw you were in front
of me watching TV and I just, about four minutes left in the fourth quarter, was like, I'm you were in front of me watching TV and I just,
about four minutes left
in the fourth quarter
was like,
I'm going to just go to bed
before this thing's over
because I could see
from behind
that you were very mad.
Something changed in me.
Something changed in me.
I didn't give you guys,
I didn't,
after the,
in the morning
I realized,
I was like,
I didn't give them
the goodnight fist bumps
that have become.
People are going to think
it's so cute that we say goodnight.
Dude, that kept me up.
That kept me up for 10 minutes.
That's what people are going to take.
Just looking at my hand.
They say goodnight.
How come?
We say goodnight to each other.
You waved me off, I think.
I did wave you off.
I was like.
I reached for the goodnight fist bump and you waved me off.
I can't do it.
I was so.
I was just so disgusted.
I sat there alone.
Not even paying attention to the TV.
I didn't have my phone on me.
My computer was closed just for like 10 minutes, just getting over it.
That's what people do when they see their dog get run over. I know.
It hurt me less than my last several breakups combined.
And those hurt.
I was just in no shape.
I was in no shape.
Which is weird because you're at the gym every goddamn day.
In shape.
Nominated for Emmys.
So you were in Portland for the weekend.
Anyone can see you anytime soon?
I'll be in San Francisco at a wedding tomorrow.
I'm going.
Oh, yeah, you are going.
Good.
Come to Boise on the...
Boise.
Whatever that Thursday is, the 27th, I think.
I'm headlining at Liquid Laughs.
I'll be there all week, but if you're going to come see me, do that, because I'll be doing
a longer set.
I won't be featuring.
I'll be headlining.
So on Thursday, I think the 27th, get a ticket.
They sell 40s at that club.
So you know what?
Get a ticket.
I'll buy you a 40.
Oh.
The first three people, I'll buy them 40s.
We should get you...
They should have a code.
All fantasy everything code, they say.
Give me a fucking 40, dude.
If you come up and say shaklakity.
Yeah, come up to me and say shaklakity, and I'll buy you a 40.
The first three people that do that.
Get a 40 out of it.
That's a pretty good deal.
That's a good deal.
You gotta buy a ticket, but they're like five bucks.
Yeah.
Three scumbags just got plans.
Yeah.
Three single men.
Three dudes, all I heard was free 40.
Yeah, exactly. That's 120 right there on the table
120 on the table
a lot of ounces dude
if you say shakalakity three times one person you get all three 40s
I live my life 40 ounces at a time
three 40s

Happy to be here.
At Andrew Michon on Twitter. It's M-I-C-H-A-A-N.
It's kind of confusing. There it is.
It's on Twitter and Instagram. Jump on

Pinterest. No, I don't. I'm not.
Jswipe. Yeah, I'm on that.
What's Jswipe?
Jswipe is Jewish Tinder.
Oh, really? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
They don't tell us Irish people about that.
No, no, no, no, no.
It says right on there, no Irish.
They don't want us gumming up the works with all our potatoes and...
No.
The potato better be shredded and cooked into a latke.
Yeah, yeah.
Or stuffed into a knish.
Andrew and I run Good Looks together here in Los Angeles.
Fantastic show.
And OG Portland there.
Yeah.
I lived in Portland for a long time, went to college there, and I knew all you guys.
Yeah, Ian and I started around a similar time when there was no shows in town and we were
doing shows together.
You had the first good show.
I had the first good show in town.
Yeah.
And now here we all are.
And Andrew currently is still an active good skateboarder.
Sometimes, yeah.
Which is such a treat.
Yeah, I've kind of traded it for surfing a little bit, but I do still skateboard.
You want me to throw the fucking microphone out the window?
That's awesome.
I want nothing more than to be able to surf.
I thought you could.
I've only been doing it one year, and I'm getting decent at it.
It's the hardest.
So on one of these beach days that we talk about, because we talk about it.
Oh yeah, we go on beach days.
Come to the beach with us.
I'd love to. Get me up on a surfboard. I could get you up, yeah. And I don't have any
upper body. I don't either.
I'm newly jacked,
okay? So it's all new
for me. Andrew didn't come in
with a shirt.
It looks like a shirt.
Like one of those shirts you get from Spencer's
that's a perfect body? We thought he was wearing one of those.
Well, they modeled that off me, actually.
No, I've only been surfing for a year.
And, you know, I'm getting decent.
I go out, you know, a couple times a week.
And I get up, you know, many, many times and ride waves.
God, that sounds kind of impossible.
It's not impossible.
It's not impossible.
It's probably way easier on your body than skateboarding, right?
Yeah, it is.
It's very low impact.
I don't know.
Your muscles are sore.
I mean, even the time I've tried to. Your muscles bounce back. Your joints don't bounce back. No, your muscles are just being exercised. It's really low impact. I don't know. Your muscles are sore. Your muscles bounce back.
Your joints don't bounce back.
No, your muscles are just being exercised.
It's really low impact.
You do not get hurt.
I mean, you can like hit your head or something.
My friend Andy, we were in Costa Rica and he comes back to the villa and he had a deep
gash in his head and he had that kind of like brain snot where it's, you know how somebody,
it's like, so that that's not, that's like hanging down where you're like, if somebody
wasn't concussed, they would wipe that off their chin okay yeah yeah yeah that this like deep where
you're like dude you're out of it because otherwise you'd wipe that disgusting shit off
your chin yeah and it was it was from like deep in his nose that's why i call it brain stuff like
way up there and he's like i don't need to go to the hospital right and we're like you look like
you're dead dude like yeah so we went to this town in Hakko and he said there was blood on the pillow
that they gave,
they like lay on the pillow,
there was blood on it.
They gave him a washcloth,
there was blood on that.
He's like,
well,
I guess just do what you're going to do.
I got to get it stitched.
Like I said,
low impact.
It's a low impact sport.
Safe.
I would,
yeah,
I would love to go surfing.
It's fun.
Oh my God.
I know a guy who teaches,

He just confirmed today.
Oh, that's fantastic.
Mr. Leading Man himself.
That's insane.
I'm so interested to see that.
I'm going to watch it this weekend.
That's insane.
So happy for him.
I saw it get dinged a couple times today.
I know.
I've seen some dings.
Yeah.
But nobody in Boise better ding it. I feel pretty, by the way. Yeah, Rory Scovel. The upcoming Amy Schumer joint. Yeah. I know. I've seen some dings. Yeah. But nobody in Boise better ding it.

I'm interested to see it.
I am too.
Yeah.
Well, even at that, we don't need to judge it.
Yeah.
We don't need to judge it.
Interested.
Yeah.
Speaking of prejudice, Zach...
Oh!
You're coming at me!
Oh!
Hey!
Hey!
It's hot in here!
Your goddamn broken fridge.
Oh, yeah.
Our fridge was broken, Toscani.
Well, who was that?
Because I saw your name spelled wrong on it, though, on the receipt.
Sean Jordan.
That motherfucker.
Oh, yeah.
Zach probably corrected and spelled it wrong because you're spiteful like that.
You know what his name was?
John Jordan.
What?
Zach.
Was it Mike?
Yeah.
A couple of Zachs.
He walked up and he was like, Zach?
And I was like, how the fuck does he know my name? Yeah. up and he was like, Zach? And I was like, how the fuck does he know my name?
And then I was like, Zach?
And he was like, what?
He was like, my name is Zach.
And he's like, my name is also Zach.
And then you guys went to shake hands, but your bongs shattered that you both had in each other's hands because you were too stoned to figure out the other bongs.
We kissed and Glendale kind of disappeared.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just were everywhere and nowhere at the same time.
Was he a Glendalian?
He seemed to be a local.
Nice.
Yeah.
Fred got fixed, man.
Sean likes to solicit the mom and pops.
Why wouldn't you?
Hey, we celebrate the neighborhood.
Absolutely.
You tell me it's going to be 45 flat for a visit.
That's what's getting you to the crib.
Fred got fixed today?
Yeah.
Cool.
Yesterday.
Yesterday.
Hey, was it Armenian Genocide Day the other day?
Was it?
Well, I saw someone. A lot of flags. I saw some flags in? Yeah. Cool. Yesterday. Yesterday. Hey, was it Armenian Genocide Day the other day? Was it? Well, I saw someone.
A lot of flags.
I saw some flags in a car.
I just wasn't sure.
There's like a month that it's.
Oh, it's a whole month?
Yeah, I see a pretty solid.
It's hard to tell in Glendale because those flags are up a lot.
Yeah.
Some people have them year round.
When they do have the big parade, it shuts down like La Brea or one of those big streets.
Yeah, but they don't do that in Glendale.
They do it in like a little K-Town or something, right?
Yeah, yeah.
You want to hear a short, interesting Glendale kind of Armenian story?
Yes.
I think it's interesting.
I think the listeners will love it.
So, you know Phil's Coffee?
Do you know it?
Yeah, yeah.
It's like a coffee chain from San Francisco.
Yeah, the one on Brand.
Right on Brand in Colorado.
Yeah, there's one on Brand in Colorado.
So, it's a coffee chain.
Our friend Moshe, who we mentioned earlier, I was with him at the coffee place, and he
loves the specific blend that he gets in the Bay Area.
Whenever he goes to Phil's, he's from there.
And it's the Turkish blend.
It's his favorite coffee of anywhere in the world.
He loves the Turkish blend.
It's not going to go well.
Well, this is where it gets interesting.
He goes to the Phil's Coffee near the Glendale Galleria.
Sure.
And he's looking on the menu, and he's thinking, where's the Turkish blend?
There's no Turkish blend on this menu.
That's buck.
So he goes to the person.
He said, hey, I usually order the Turkish blend.
What's going on?
And they're like, oh, yeah, at this location, we call it the dream blend.
Oh, wow.
Or the heavenly blend.
Yeah.
Because enough Armenians had complained that they didn't want to see the word Turkish or
turkey in a coffee shop.
I get it.
Because the Armenian genocide.
I get it, too. It is interesting because it. Because the Armenian genocide. I get it too.
It is interesting because it's still the same coffee.
It's just called something else.
So it's like putting a bandaid on it.
In the style of.
Well, they're still called French fries,
but hard press me to order them and not say Freedom Press.
Sean's a hard line Freedom Press guy.
You can put me in both chicken wings.
It's still going to be, give me some Freedom Press.
Yeah.
It's just, I wonder how many people complained, you know, like what was the limit where they
were like, okay.
A lot I bet.
A lot.
I bet it was like a constant stream of-
Maybe like a day of like shit.
For those listeners who don't know, there was an Armenian genocide committed by Turkish
people and it's kind of hasn't been recognized by history.
Well, the Turkish, they've never taken responsibility for it.
Yeah, it's very bizarre and unfortunate.
It's like if Germany was like- well, we didn't do it.
No, like us, maybe some people died.
We had nothing to do with it.
The shaggy defense.
Yeah, it wasn't me.
It wasn't me.
Anyway, that's my Turkish story.
That's very interesting.
When I moved to LA, my uncle bought me, so him and his partner went to Turkey for like a couple months.
And they got one of these like, I can't remember what kind – like magic eye or something.
There are these like blue pieces of glass that are like kind of like a dollar coin size and they're supposed to be like –
Oh, I know those.
They have the eye on it.
Superstitious, like it's good luck or whatever.
And for a while when I moved to LA, I was like, oh, maybe I should just like hang this up in my car.
I don't really believe in that stuff, but it's just like something to hang on your
mirror. And then luckily
I didn't do that because when I moved to Glendale
I was like, oh, they would be completely
justified in like beating the
shit out of that car.
Which is funny because it would like bring you the exact opposite
of what it's intended.
Very bad luck. Thanks,
Uncle Peter. Shout out to the
Armenian community of Glendale
for taking
taking us three white boys in
oh yeah
yeah man
we appreciate it
I give
yeah I give it my
I give it my best
to like

speaking of Zach hates Dracula
add Zach Toscani on Twitter
add Zach hates Dracula
on Dracula.com
Zach hates Dracula.com

Zacula.
Zacula.
Oh, shit.
That's why he hates Dracula.
Zacula.
CountZacula.
CountZacula.
Because you were CountZacula when you were nine on Halloween and you can't get over it.
Yeah, it traumatized him.
Dude, I was...
Will you be CountZacula this Halloween?
For three years in a row, I wanted to be Michael Jordan.
Yeah.
For three years in a row, I wanted to be Michael Jordan.
Yeah.
And my mom was like, well, there's some obvious we can't do paint.
You're a little shorter.
So she made me Michael Jordan Dracula.
So I had Dracula paint on and then just the Michael Jordan uniform.
Okay.
Huh.
A good workaround.
Can we call that Zacula?
Can that be Zacula?
Sure. I just want you to be Zacula this year.
I just love the whole, I love, I celebrate the whole Zacula movement.
Yeah.
I'm pro-Zacula.
Yeah, pro-Zacula.
Pro, I take pro-Zacula.
I get pro-Zacula.
I take pro-Zacula, yeah.
I get depressed, a lot of pro-Zacula in there.
It's a thing that you take and it makes him more into the Zacula thing.
It has a weird effect.
We all have to, yeah.
We all have to take it and it comes in the form
of weed for me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sure, call me whatever.
What do you have coming up?
Any viral tweets planned?
Young Muscle Beach.
Fuck you, bro.
Young Muscle Beach.
Fuck you, dude.
Young 50,000 over there.
Fuck you.
You're not on the podcast anymore.
You're not.
Any viral tweets planned?
Like on this,
when the last one drops,
it would be funny
if you're just like,
well, all of your followers
didn't listen,
so you're never
doing the podcast again.
We didn't see
a 50,000 listener spike
in the episode.
You know,
Portland was actually
really fun,
except for that Qdoba
I got kicked out of
because a stranger
brought your name up to me
and then I broke his nose
and so they kicked me
out of that Qdoba.
No.
Oh, okay.
He would never beat a Qdoba.
I didn't get kicked out. I broke his nose giving the fucking burrito. No, but then a stranger would bring up Zach and a Qdoba. No. Oh, okay. He would never beat a Qdoba. No, I didn't get kicked out.
I broke his nose.
Give me the fucking burrito.
No, but Dennis Strange will bring up Zach in a Qdoba.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
Obviously, that's the part I want.
Yeah, yeah.
I didn't think you punched a guy.
I was doing a bit.
You're not Zach as a kid.
I was doing a bit

Yeah, so that's kind of it. The Netflix special

Yes, we're gathered here today in beautiful downtown Los Angeles, California.
The HeadGum Studios.
Oh, shit.
Just an eyelash off of Skid Row.. Just an eyelash off of Skid Row.
Just a red eyelash off of Skid Row.
Bathing in the glow of Super Producer Marissa.
There she is.
Shout out to Super Producer Marissa.
We've gathered here today to draft things that glow confidence boosters.
Yeah.
Which I love this topic.
This one.
Yeah.
It's so original and cool.
It's so cool. I saw that it was kind of a confidence boost at work to see that just to see it look how much fun i get to
have after work a little pep in the step yeah yeah uh now we determine the order of the draft
with a rollicking game of rock paper scissors y'all did play between the three of you and we
throw on shoot so here we go rock paper scissor shoot done oh sean jordan wins it's just because
he throws the unique one.
Done. It's multi-player. Oh, is that how it is?
You both threw rock and he had the one that wasn't
a double up. Oh, I'm not familiar with these rules
and I'm actually going to leave.
Oh, okay. So Andrew's gone.
That's not a confidence booster.
I feel pretty terrible.
Confidence bummer. No, I'm glad you won.
You have to be used right now.
This is breeding a good vibe. Andrew just goes, I'm glad you won. These are going to have to be used right now. This is breeding a good vibe.
Andrew just goes, I'm glad you won.
This is a good vibes-ass topic right here.
No, it's good.
Last week was, or two weeks ago, was fucking fight songs.
Really?
I've been listening to the playlist since then, too.
I have, too.
It's been encouraging poor habits in my driving.
But Sean, you've won the draft, so you're going to determine the order of the draft.
Before you do that, I'd love to remind you that this is a serpentine draft.
Sure.
Yeah.
So what does that mean?
Oh, great question.
Actually, I'm pretty stoked that you asked.
So let's say you dropped in on a half pipe.
You're on a skateboard.
You drop in on the half pipe.
Andrew can follow this.
You go over to one side.
You just do a fat Indy nose bone.
And then you come back to the other side. You do a to one side, you just do a fat Indy Noah's bone. Yep. Okay. And then you come back
to the other side,
you do a 540 method
that you could eat dinner off.
Say what?
And then you go back
to the other side,
you do a nightmare air.
Oh, yeah.
Then you go back to this side,
you do a frontside,
tailside big spin,
which I don't even know
if anyone's ever done.
And then you just kind of
keep going back and forth.
Right.
Doing tricks,
sort of like a serpentine,
like a snake goes sort of back
and then forth.
A couple over here,
yackety, yackety, yackety.
And back over here.
Basically what it means is you do
if you pick fourth in the first round, you pick first in the second round.
Sure. Something like that.
So you do two in a row, basically.
Yeah, if you pick fourth.
I play a lot of board games and a lot of them have this mechanic.
Do they really?
It's a very standard draft mechanic in board games.
I didn't know that.
Skateboard games.
Skateboard games.
I haven't met skateboard games yet. Skateboard games. Skateboard games. I didn't mention skateboard games.
Sean, skateboard games for you.
So what will the order of this draft be, Sean Jordan?
Let's go, I'll go first.
Oh.
Then we'll have Andrew second.
Oh.
And then Zach third, Ian fourth.
Thank you.
Yeah, thank you.
Thank you.
I was going to make you go first, Andrew, but I didn't want to do that because you've never done it.
So I don't want to be a dickhead.
So with the first pick of the All Fantasy Everything Confidence Boosters Draft, Sean
Jordan, you have the first pick.
You're on the clock.
No.
Now, I don't want to be crass.
Oh, please don't.
A lot of adults listening to this, I don't want to sound like a sinner or anything.
Don't.
Don't.
Sex. Oh. Having sex. having sex having sex having sex is a huge nothing little about it it's a huge confidence boost yeah and it's uh
just one of those things like makes you feel great and i'm not saying like i that's why i'm
trying not to sound like a scumbag but it's just one of those things where you're like
cool that's kind of the point of everything i do of what i wear and like why i want to make money and then like and i just did it so what do
i need you do have your will you have sex with me shirt on so i can tell that's why green grand
teton it's wild that you're wearing a shirt at all honestly i mean i feel like that would have
been a more clear message this isn't a shirt this is a grand tetons tattoo that I got. Oh, the Grand Tetons. I shaved my chest. I got laser chest hair removal.
And I have a Grand Tetons tattoo.
And then green body tattoo.
You got green.
That's cool.
You don't call it sex.
You call it summiting.
That's the thing.
I summited the relationship.
You're at base camp.
You want to settle down.
Acclimate.
It is.
Now, I do have to say that I think sex would be a confidence boost in theory because I'm
not married yet.
Right.
And I don't want to burn in hell.
You've never had sex.
Yeah, yeah.
But from what I gather, Basic Instinct and Wild Things movies such as Sliver.
This is Basic Instinct.
That's the one they get.
Sex does look fun according to that movie.
If a virgin had watched Basic Instinct and just assumed that's what sex was, holy shit.
It's a gambit, though.
It's a real, it's mostly high reward, but the risk.
You can leave sex sometimes.
I've had sex and then afterwards felt terrible about myself.
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah.
That's why yours is a bad pick.
Yeah.
And you're dumb.
That's why you lose the draft.
You leave and you're in perdition.
Yeah.
Oh, well, I'm the harbinger of a good.
One of those names, the two hot sauces.
Two hot sauces that we got last week.
That we got last week.
The harbinger of a good high is sex.
Yeah.
What was it?
Soothsayer hot sauce?
What was it?
I forget.
What's it called?
I feel like a jerk now.
Oh, God damn it.
But harbinger.
Sorry.
And perdition.
So we got some hot sauces sent to us.
Oh, right.
David took one of them.
So I forget the name of that one.
But the other two that were sent were Harbinger and Perdition.
Wow.
And they fucking, they do the trick.
Yeah.
They'll get you there.
They're really, really good.
And Perdition is basically hell, right?
So it's like if you were like, hey, do you want to put some hell?
Are they too hot?
No.
Well, we tried Harbinger and it was great.
Okay. Yeah. It's like good sex for your tongue, you know? Just really, just really good. are they too hot no well we tried harbinger and it was great okay
yeah
it's like good sex
for your tongue
you know
just really
it's really good
what did you put it on
uh wings
okay
I was
I do this thing
where I'll put hot sauce
on wings
that are already flavored
right
which is overkill
yeah
and pretty much
it is soothsayer
huh
it is soothsayer
look at that
playboy
playboy
it's that haircut man

I was kidding I don't know why I said that I'm lashing out
Whoa
He stopped the improv
Wow
Sex
You didn't have sex and regain your footing
Let me get in here real close
Sex
Without getting too crude
Don't you dare What's you go blue what's your
ideal time for like this kind of sex is it starting the day oh no i don't like i don't like
day sex i like uh you don't like day sex i don't like morning or day sex but i'll tell you what
morning sex just because i get i'm such a fucking baby but like if I feel like I'm gross like I do in the morning if I have bad breath or whatever
but like sometimes
like if it's on, it's on. And that's great.
Like if you just wake up and you're like, oh shit, it's on.
Then yeah, that's
the best. Oh damn. That's awesome.
Then your whole day is just kind of set and you're like
I mean that was so, what a good way
to wake up. A lot of fragment sentences
and incomplete thoughts. And when you're
like, oh damn damn, dude.
And your pants are like, huh?
You know, and when she's there, it's like, what?
And it's on.
I'm trying to appeal to the middle school crowd.
Spoken like a true sex crazed lunatic.
I'm trying to speak in what I think emojis would sound like if they would talk.
You sound like the radio edit of a Biggie song.
what i think emojis would sound like if they would talk you sound like the radio edit of a biggie song girl if it's on it's on do you guys think biggie was here for a second
that's the textbook but when i when i think of like
confident sex i think of like one specific time where this girl, she just lived downtown and that's also where I worked.
And that's where you went.
Yeah.
No.
You have morning sex.
What?
Sorry.
But then you, because your alarm goes off and that's the alarm for where you live.
So now you're like 30 minutes earlier on schedule.
You have sex and then you just walk right into work.
Yeah.
Whoa.
Wow.
That's pretty cool.
That's awesome.
And then you just make patents or whatever. Or whatever you did. Yeah. Whoa. I mean, that's pretty cool. And then you, and then you just make patents or whatever,
whatever you did.
Yeah.
Was that a shower?
Do you shower?
Uh,
sometimes you shower there.
Yeah.
Sometimes you just go over in the morning or at night the night before.
Uh,
well you're over there for the night.
Yeah.
And the next day,
I'd be,
I'd be kind of interesting.
You bring a change of clothes early in the morning.
You went there like six in the morning,
showered up,
ready for work. Hey, I'm outside your building at 6 morning. Went there early. You went there at 6 in the morning, showered up, ready for work.
Hey, I'm outside your building at 6am.
I like that. With a briefcase for some reason.
Yeah, that's good. We're both EMTs. We gotta get
this done early. We've got a long shift.
Yeah, sex. It's a confidence boost.
I get it. Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, you definitely walk different,
for sure. Morning sex, Will. Morning sex
if you have work that day is a crazy confidence booster.
It's really not that much, it's not
bad at work because you're like,
not a big deal!
Not a big deal! I had sex!
Hey, Jeremy, did you hear that?
I had sex.
Not only did I hear it, I saw it written on my
computer screen because you wrote it in shaving cream.
The coffee machine isn't working, but you know what was working this morning?
What?
My penis.
A little man latte.
I think it might have worked 41 hours this week.
You know what I mean?
I'd have to pay it some OT.
Yeah, having sex.
It will boost up the confidence.
You said copy machine isn't working?
Yeah, copy machine.
A penis is kind of like a copy machine in a way because you're copying, making more humans.
I don't know.
There's something interesting there.
There's something there.
There's something there.
Put it on the board.
We'll workshop it.
It's not a huge laugh, but there's something there.
Somebody's laughing a lot at that right now.
Somebody's laughing.
That's a rice vial.
That's a little rice vial somebody had.
You know what that is?
That's a joke that somebody gets to tell later
like they didn't hear it on this podcast.
Oh, that's going to happen. They're going to tell it to tell later like they didn't hear it on this podcast.
That's going to happen.
They're going to tell it at the bar like they thought of it.
Please take it.
Knowing our scumbag listeners.
They become CEO instantly.
Tell them the joke.
Twitter accounts and Instagram accounts
just based on our little jokes.
Someone at the bar will be like,
oh, the copy machine was broken at work.
And then they'll be like,
my copy machine, my dick, works.
And they'll be like, okay. No, machine was broken at work. And then they'll be like, my copy machine, my dick, works. And they'll be like, okay.
No, think about it.
Think about it, though.
Because each copy is just a little degraded.
And I'm like, come on, let's be honest about children.
They'll overhear it in the other room and burst in.
Do we just talk about copy machines?
You don't say copy machines, my dick.
You want copy machine.
I'm out of breath.
No, it's not broken.
It works just fine, man.
It works.
Color copies, dude.
Color copies.
Am I fired?
Coffee machines, I guess, aren't really like a dick.
Very different.
My bad.
There's not a bunch of different flavors.
My dick's like a Keurig in that it fits in one of those tiny little...
The area where you put it.
Use it and throw it away.
And then you leave all bummed out, turtled up, like everybody throws me away.
It's wasteful.
I tried to crack a joke with a mouthful of fruit snacks.
I don't know why I did.
It was the first time I grabbed the mic.
I was laughing so hard.
So having sex, first pick.
Andrew Michon, your first pick in Confidence Boosters.
Okay.
This one may seem a little self-serving but i think we can
all agree with this we're all performers yes oh yeah getting recognized in public yeah it is like
it seems like really lame to say that but it is because i think for all of us it probably doesn't
happen that much i think if it happened every day you're like tom cruise obviously your life you
can't lead in a normal way. Then it becomes a prison.
Yeah, because we can all lead our lives normally, and every once in a while, someone will recognize you.
It feels great.
It is the dopest.
It's the best.
Every time I go back to Portland, it's just like a battery recharge.
I'm sure.
I went, I took a, it was a first date with this girl who lived in LA, but she worked up in Portland sometimes.
So our first date was up in Portland.
And we went to Ava Jeans.
And we walked in.
And the guy was like, I was hoping it was you.
Because it said Ian Carmel.
And I was hoping it was you, the Ian Carmel.
Man, you're so great.
And this girl's standing right next to me.
And then they brought us to the table.
And then the server recognized me.
Oh, my God.
I don't even know if she liked me that much,
but we dated for about eight months off of that.
Oh, dude.
Just the built-up pressure from that.
He must be, it must be coming.
Whatever all these people like.
It's gotta be right around the bend.
That happened to me at Olympia Provisions.
And by the way, this was years ago.
So it was like so remote, this possibility.
Before you went viral?
Yeah.
Okay.
Interesting.
That was only a month ago.
I'm kidding.
Before you went viral.
You can't even go into Mendocino.
Yeah.
Let alone a Chinese food restaurant.
Jesus.
No, anyway.
But yeah, someone just, like it was like the chef.
And because it's all kind of open, like an open kitchen like that, they were just sending over stuff. And I was like, I didn't order this. kind of open like an open kitchen like that they were just sending over stuff and i was like i didn't order this and they're like well no they
recognize you and the girl was like jesus christ and i was like i honestly i think maybe it's you
is it you yeah i mean the first couple times yeah it is a real mind mind but it is kind of a mind
well because it's like you think you know it's not you don't you don't it doesn't blow your head up
you're just like wow somebody actually gives a fuck right like i was in i was in line this happened to my voice i was
in line at the honey hole in seattle i was ordering the buford tea strange which is what i get at the
honey hole i'm hearing all sorts of words what's the honey hole Sean, you picked. The Honey Hole. Barry, Barry Derrison.
Barry Derrison.
Hebe, Hebe.
What's the Honey Hole?
So it's a sandwich shop in Seattle.
Oh, okay, okay.
And the Buford T. Strange is their roast beef au jus.
Both of them sound like sex.
Yeah.
Got myself some Buford T. Strange last week.
Took it straight to the Honey Hole.
Yeah, somebody recognized me, went home, got some Buford T. Strange.
It was a young lady named Buford tea.
So I was ordering the sandwich and this guy behind me goes, are you Sean Jordan?
I go, how the fuck do you know that?
He's kind of smiling.
You were mad at him.
From a podcast.
Well, I was smiling.
I was like, that's crazy, dude.
From this podcast?
From Doug Love's movies.
Oh, cool, cool.
I was like, man, that's so cool when somebody, yeah, it'll-
Like they take the time
to remember your face or your voice i mean it's like me if i see a skateboarder walking on the
street like sean malto could be walking on the street nobody's gonna give a shit i would run
up on him like he was john lennon or something oh from here oh yeah from a distance this dude
mikey taylor he's a professional skateboarder he was in portland one time walking down 23rd
in northwest and street league was the day before and i saw him i was behind him i was like oh shit This dude, Mikey Taylor, he's a professional skateboarder. He was in Portland one time walking down 23rd in Northwest.
And Street League was the day before.
And I saw him.
I was behind him.
I was like, oh, shit.
And I come up and I was like, dude, this is fucking crazy.
And he looks at me and goes, what's crazy?
And he kind of put his hands up.
And I was like, oh, you're Mikey Taylor.
I'm Sean.
I just, I'm a huge fan.
He's like, okay.
I just scared the shit out of him.
This is crazy.
Yeah.
It's just fun.
Dude, there is. him. This is crazy. Yeah, it's just fun. Yeah, it's so tight.
Okay, long story short, the last time I was in Portland, this dude, I was opening for Shane, but this dude showed up like three hours before the first show started.
And he was like waiting outside.
He was this guy that had been following me since I had this music blog in college.
What?
You went to college?
People just recognize you in Portland. you went to college people just recognize you before the new college guy right damn dude you went to was he like weird and stuff no no he was super cool but he was like this
musician who had all these like health problems so for a while he was reading the i would do like
i would post music illegally um but then also you badass motherfucker
um but yeah he would read the reviews and then just was following me on facebook and then he
lived in portland oh wow but he had too many health problems when i was living there and it
was just great where you're like you were a fan from me like before i even knew that i could have
fans or right right right 10 years before i started doing comedy. Yeah, it's a trip for sure.
That is a trip.
We got recognized when we sat courtside.
Remember that?
Oh, really?
From some dude like we were sitting like, AFU listener,
shout out to you if you're still listening.
They were like a few rows back in just the game we happened to be sitting courtside.
Dude.
So we got to go like take pictures with these guys who were super nice.
But like then everyone around us was like, who the fuck?
You know, I feel that way living in LA sometimes because I think all of us look like we could be,
and especially in a place like the Roost where you walk in and it's dark.
I feel like people look at me like, is that?
No, it's definitely not.
Whoever the fuck they think that I might be.
And that is not a confidence booster.
Is that Tyrese? No, that's not a confidence is that tyree no that's not
obviously that's morris chestnut yeah and then i go next i'm sean i'm not i'm neither which cast
member of the wood is that or is that bokeem woodbine which is um yeah getting recognized
is dope yeah yeah it's fun i hope I hope to have it happen time and again.
It will.
Time and again for all of us.
That's my wish for all of us.
Also, sometimes you get free shit out of it, like you were saying.

There is a feeling. It's funny how it took you a second.
I knew right away.
Getting a haircut

There's nothing else that when you leave

You're just like,
I am exactly who I want to be right now.
Someone took about an hour and they're like, I want to make you look dope, dude.

your head talk to you yeah or not talk to you kind of depend depend on what you want to me
not talk to you know like whatever you want but they like, if you go to a good one, they, like, really know how to do it.
And they treat you right.
You get a little, you get, like, pampered.
Yeah.
Oh, if you get, like, the shampoo and the wet towel or the hot wet towel.
Oh, yeah.
Maybe they put a couple hot stones on you.
Oh, yeah.
Hand job, just a full release hand job.
Yeah, hand job, full release.
Well, well, well.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, well, well.
That's out of my pay grade.
They whisper little things in your ear, just like, you're going to show, you'll show them
all.
Yeah, yeah.
You know?
You're going to nail it.
They don't even know what you're doing.
They're just like, you're going to fucking nail it.
Yeah, you're getting the haircut in the car and halfway through, they're like, by the
way, you get to keep this car.
That would be-
All those nice things.
That would be buck.
A mobile haircut?
Has that ever happened to anyone in this room?
A haircut on the go?
No way.
No.
No way.
Not ever. Not ever.
So when I worked for Coca-Cola,
I got a haircut on the job and they didn't notice.
That was like a level of like,
wow, they are really not paying attention.
I know someone who worked on Twin Peaks,
the new season. David Lynch gets
a haircut every day. Really?
On set. Every single day.
And he's into like, all that spiritual...
What are they cutting? TM. I don't know. He's also not on camera. I mean And he's into like all that spiritual. What are they cutting?
TM. I don't know.
He's also not on camera.
I mean, he's also just not a part of the show.
Maybe it's just a vibe thing.
Maybe he's into it.
See, here's the thing.
So I always like,
especially if you wait a long time to get a haircut,
like if you get a really transformational,
like you grow it out for a long time
and then get a cut short or whatever.
Oh, a queer haircut.
Yeah.
Hopefully what Shane's about to get one of these days.
Oh yeah.
God, we would pay,
all of us would pay so much money to see Shane.
If I put it,
if there was a Kickstarter,
yeah,
I'm doing it on the highest tier.
Oh man.
I thought you were going to say that dude that waited outside of Shane's show for three
hours was like a diehard locks for love fan.
And he was just like begging Shane for the hair.
It's going to be good for you.
It's going to be good for the community.
Listen, you're the goose goose I'm the gander
okay
I got a haircut today
that's why you bring it up
yeah
he cut the fuck out of it
he like faded it
and everything
and then
it looks great
he like
I don't know what he did
but he combed it in such a way
that it's straight now
he fucking straight up
combed the Jew out of it
it's not curly at all
it's like tousled
yeah it's tousled
I told him
I'm like you cut this haircut's so good you cut the Jew out of my hair It's not curly at all. It's like tousled. Yeah, it's tousled. I told him, I'm like,
this haircut's so good, you cut the Jew out of my hair.
He called it the Anne Frank.
He's Jewish, too.
We're both Jews. Well, you goddamn better be.
We're both Jews.
Jews.
It was fucking great. Yeah.
Amazing haircut. It will
really... You feel like a different person for
two or three days. It has this kind of long-lasting effect. Oh, yeah. I feel like a different person for like two or three days.
It has this kind of long-lasting effect.
Oh, yeah.
I still like my haircut three weeks ago.
There's no hangover period.
You feel good and then you just transition back into life. For me, actually, the best confidence is a week after.
I feel better a week after.
Yeah, when it's set a little bit.
For me, it's not so confidence-boosting.
I feel like it's a little too short.
See, I like going in the shower and it's like, especially if you get the sides short.
It feels good.
Yeah, it feels good. It feels good. You feel the wind. But's like, especially if you get the sides short. Well, it feels good. Yeah, it feels good.
It feels good.
You feel the wind.
But I think when you grow into it, then I think you're feeling real good.
There's also the effect where it's like, I think you're right, because they'll style
it a little bit when you get your hair cut, and you're like, never will I be able to capture
this again.
They think my shit needs to go up like two inches whenever I leave, but they just have
it as high as it'll go.
I'm like, that ain't what it's going to be like.
It's doing that on its own right now.
You got to go with that. I'm like, that ain't what it's going to be like. It's doing that on its own right now. You got to go with that.
I'm telling you.
No.
You think in confines that don't exist.
You didn't think you were going to do it on the sides.
The sides looks good.
I'm going to go shorter next time.
Ian took me for my first big boy haircut
where they'd get the clippers out and fade it up.
Ian didn't even stay.
It was a big boy haircut.
Ian dropped me off.
He goes, now you find your own way home.
I sat there and read a magazine like a hot mom.
While this girl talked to me like a fucking fifth grader.
Really?
Yeah.
I go, can you just like.
Was it because you said big boy haircut?
And I go, cut the gum out of my hair and give me a big boy haircut.
Give me some chocolate fucking milk.
And I definitely have lice. And you requested the dinosaur seat too. Which was a weird choice. cut the gum out of my hair and give me a big boy haircut. Give me some chocolate fucking milk, I said.
And I definitely have lice.
You requested the dinosaur seat, too.
That was a weird choice.
Put me in a booster seat.
Meow.
I have ukus.
What's ukus?
That's some Hawaiian shit.
That's just what they call lice, right?
Oh, really?
Doesn't that sound way bucker?
Ukus in me payload?
Tango ukus?
It's Shane's album
which is
him
Shane's b-sides
dude
the uku's
Shane's b-sides
c-sides
double b-sides
yeah anyway
I told her to get the clippers out
long story short
she's like
so at the end of the haircut
she goes
and what
what clipper number are you
I go four
and she goes
that's gonna make everyone's job
a lot easier next time
I was like
lady
what
you're still getting a $10 tip.
Did you tell mommy?
No, mommy didn't tell mom.
No, I didn't tell mom.
Oh, man.
No, I told mom when we were well out of there.
Mommy would have had some work.
You would have gone crazy.
It's still a customer service job.
Of course it is.
I work in customer service.
I mean, even stand-up's kind of customer service, but I work in on-the-phone customer service.
You got to be nice.
Customer service.
Yeah.
Customer service, dog. All right. It's time for my customer service. You gotta be nice. Customer service, dog.
Alright, it's time for my first pick.
Let's hear it.
And with my first pick, I guess I'm gonna
fuck, I wanted a haircut one.
But I'm gonna pick
getting a new outfit.
Ooh, yes.
That you know works.
Nothing's been washed yet,
so it hasn't faded.
Or if it's been washed once or it hasn't like faded or if it's
been what it's been washed like once or whatever yeah you have it exactly where you want it exactly
where you want it pants fit right everything goes together it's right everything goes together
everything smells good like like obviously all my clothes smell good all the time
but like the but they got that new clothes smell yeah oh i fucking love it i mean that goes in a
way that you can never crease it again.
Right, yeah, exactly.
You can never get it back there.
Sometimes I'll just
walk through a hallway
at work wearing a new outfit
just strike some poses,
some J.C. Penney
catalog poses.
You like to go
full new outfit,
like top and bottom?
Yeah.
I mean, if you're going
to get the drugs,
do them all, you know.
That is what they say.
They do say that.
And then they die, but they say that. They say say that right before i can name a lot of comedians that say that yeah true yeah yeah
especially here in la but uh no it is sick when everything's on point it's kind of like school
clothes it kind of goes back to that like i'm gonna fucking boss up maybe a new accessory too
like a belt or something like oh my god i went went like to, when I go back to Portland, because there's no sales tax, I'll always
try to like pick up a couple of pieces.
And I got this like $200 sweatshirt that just like felt so good and it's black, but like
it's never been washed.
Yeah.
So it was like that true black kind of thing.
Threw that on and just was like feeling myself.
Yeah.
Well, and then there's that part where
like i dropped a couple bucks on this i'm gonna walk around as such you heard him call it a piece
or a sweater it's a piece you don't get a piece that's when you know it's serious
it's a fucking piece you never ask the question hey does the piece go in the dryer you don't get
that that question is gonna ask twice for me too too, it's an especially fraught pursuit because I'm right on that 2XL range.
And some brands, their 2XL fits me perfectly.
Some, it's a little bit snug.
It's a little bit tight.
It's a little hard to get it.
It's a little bit.
It's not going to go.
It's not going to go.
So it's like a little bit.
Then you're just like, I'm going to wear it on button.
It looks great.
Yeah.
I'm just not going to go.
I'm just not going to go.
So it's like a little bit. Then you're just like, I'm going to wear it on button.
It looks great.
Yeah.
So when you find one, and it's such a swing, because all, you'll, trying on clothes is
frustrating for anyone.
Yeah.
But if you're in there and you brought like five shirts into the dressing room and like
four of them didn't fit.
And you're just like, fuck bodies.
Fuck Nordstrom.
Fuck cotton.
Fuck polyester.
You know, all that shit. And then like you put one on that fits and it like, fuck bodies. Fuck Nordstrom. Fuck cotton. Fuck polyester. You know, all that shit.
And then you put one on that fits, and it just fits right.
It's just like, woo.
Just a wild swing to the other direction.
Yeah, you're like the mask after that.
You're just like a tornado past the cash register.
I'll be wearing it out, and then you just fucking zip through.
Well, even amongst labels, the sizing isn't always the same,
where you're like, this is the same label I always get.
Why do they buy things online?
I can't. I've never really bought.'ll buy shoes online it's about it i've shopped at that eight
when i was getting ready for my netflix special that asos 50 it's only 15 minutes guys but uh
i went on asos which is like that british brand i buy stuff from there yeah great like all the
stuff looked amazing and i ordered i was like just to be safe i'llX, 3X, and 4X out of it. And I'm like, just to be safe.
Right.
And they sent it.
And I tried all the shirts on, and they all fit the same, which was to say not at all.
But they fit not at all in the same way.
Where I would get the buttons right to the same spot every time.
I'm like, where's the difference in the sizes?
It was wild.
Yeah.
It's like the sizes are just like all the sizes they care about and then like big.
Yeah.
And then just put
a different number.
Yeah.
If your site has
international like metrics,
I'm just going,
well,
I'm going to look at
what a medium
would be numbers wise.
But like none of them
that's why I got the 4X.
Right.
Because they're probably thinking
like if he's so lazy
that he let himself
get to 2X,
he's going to be too lazy to send any of this back.
And they were right.
Really?
Yeah, well, I haven't sent any of it back.
I will, maybe.
It did look good on Button, though.
Right.
Those were the shirts that just looked good.
I wear a lot of Button Up shirts on Button.
Yeah.
I like the look.
Well, their stuff is usually pretty cheap, too, right?
Oh, yeah.
For the most part.
So you're like, ah.
Like, I bought shirts from that same website.
Yeah. And it was like, all right, that was $15, I guess.
Right, so what's the loss?
Well, it's $15.
Interesting that they were all the same, though.
It was weird.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a bummer.
It did suck.
I'm going to stop wearing my clothes from them in solidarity.
Thank you.
I'm going to stop.
Mission accomplished.
Andrew, where are you going to drop those clothes off?
I'm going to burn them. Me too. Can I are you going to drop those clothes off? I'm going to burn them.
Me too.
Can I have the ashes?
You can get warm by the fire.
You can make some marshmallows out of it.
I'll let you do that.
Two X and then you feel my pain.
Fucking treacherous motherfucker.
All right.
So new outfit.
That's going to be my first pick.
And I'll sign for my second pick as it is a serpentine.
Sure.
And I'm going to put something that kind of harkens back to our podcast two weeks ago.
Just hearing a dank song.
Yeah, yeah.
Just like the right song where it'll just like kick you up a few notches, you know,
and like it just completely elevates your mood.
It's like a little confidence booster for me.
Yep.
Like if, you know, if like you're about to go do standup or something like that, you
have your mix, you're like, let me hear this song.
It's usually upbeat.
For me at least, it's got like, it's got like a fast beat.
It's like a peppy song, a happy song.
You know, Rosa Parks by Outkast, that one will completely boost my confidence.
So yeah, I'm picking.
I'm extremely into that.
Whenever I want to get like real boost up
I'll just listen to mixes of like Haunted House
Kind of soundtracks
And then you'll just start punching people
Happy Halloween
Not that way
I'm Count Zacula
Yeah, no man, I mean a song can do wonders for you oh i mean it yeah we were just talking the other
day like there's certain songs that i will not listen to if i'm on my way to work because i'm
like i it'll get me too stoked yeah and then i'll have to walk into work and just be like
fuck i'm at work and then i'll be double bummed emails i'm like too susceptible to the power of
music yeah because like if i hear if i'm in a
good mood but i hear a sad song it'll pull me right down right and powerful and vice versa i
can't trust my phone on shuffle oh god because if i'm in a grocery store it's wild where i'm like
this section this section yeah i don't i don't know where i'm going am i gonna eat healthy or
is it just all ice cream oh yeah yeah yeah i feel you what's uh i'm trying to think of a song that like there's

just gonna have a me day oh yeah okay there's this some of us work in entertainment the most
important industry in the world where we can't call in six that's what we want to you know what
song popped into my head and i'll be honest when you said that it was breathe by fabulous
that's the song that popped right into my head and I'll be honest, when you said that, it was Breathe by Fabulous. Really? That's the song
that popped right into my head when you were like,
the song that puts me in a good mood. Okay.
It must. Alright, yeah. Because for some reason
it popped right in. That's your Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
It took over the Great Malinko, which is always on the
forefront of my mind. It's constantly, it's playing on a
loop in your brain by the Wacky Circus Gang.
By the way,

some corny songs.
Since I Left You by the Avalanches

Which one is that? It's like a
it's just heavily sampled, but it's like disco-y.

i like it it could be something small could be something big, but it's always rewarding.
Like I find like if there's like a Saturday where I've let everything pile up
throughout the week,
like just things that I,
responsibilities that I need to do or things where just kind of ancillary
things that make me happy where I just couldn't do them throughout the week.
Right.
I always like to start off like,
okay,
I know.
Dickhead. Keep going. I'm sorry. Learn to start off like, okay, that's hilarious. I know. Dickhead.
Keep going,
I'm sorry.
Learn that on Twitter.
Well,
they send you documents.
Tells you how you got to be.
When you say a Saturday
where you didn't accomplish anything,
do you mean like you didn't get,
go viral or anything
like in the last couple of days?
Oh God.
That's right.
That's right.
You thought it was heaven,
but it was hell this whole time.
No,

there's gonna be
some marks on there
some hate marks
oh man
no Super Bowl champions
followed me today
crumb
continue sorry
um
thank you Andrew
um
no but like
just doing like one
one even small little win
where it's like
okay I'm gonna figure out how to get that shit off my windshield.
Oh, yeah.
That's a very specific one.
What was on your windshield?
Please do that.
Oh, God, yeah.
It was when I was – so I was in –
So he killed a guy.
Do you know they have blood?
Dracula knows all about the blood.
All the leftover blood I didn't drink was on my windshield.
I don't care for plasma.
The vipers wipe my windows.
But anyway, I was out of LA for two weeks and I parked it near a family's place by the airport.
But there was this tree that was infected with aphids, which are these really tiny bugs.
And they secrete this milk and it completely covered my car.
And water won't get rid of it.
You have to use, like, 91% pure alcohol to clean it off.
So Zach just had me sweat over it a little bit.
It's alcohol.
It's on the windshield?
It was on the doors, on the handles.
Can you see well?
It was like, no.
Like, when I was driving home, it was like my head was, I was doing, like, the Ace Ventura at the handles. Can you see well? It was like, no, you, like when I was driving home,
it was like, my head was,
I was doing like the Ace Ventura at the end.
Are you serious?
Head out the window.
It was gnarly, dude.
From El Segundo to Glendale.
And it was raining that day.
What?
Hope would help, but it didn't.
Yeah.
But it just was like.
It's like, what color is it?
It's like a brownie clear.
Weird.
It was like there was honey all over his car.
Yeah.
Because I didn't believe him.
And I looked at it, I was like, damn.
It was all over the whole car.
Like when you open the door, it would be like, you had to like break the seal of the-
So when you first saw it, what did you think it was?
Well, they, so my family-
Those teens.
Must have.
Who were always messing with them.
The El Segundo Anarchy Crew.
Someone poured perdition all over my car.
Oh, boy.
They hate kids.
But yeah, it was, dude, it was crazy.
It took me like maybe a total of three weeks to get it all off of my car.
But what did you think it was?
Did you have a thing?
No.
Well, I got texted the day of, like when I was flying in, they were like, hey, your car
is covered in like aphid stuff, so it might take a while to clean off. And I was like, okay. You're like, I was flying in they were like hey your car is covered in like aphid stuff
so it might take a while to clean off and I was like
I know what that means
that would be such a fucking mystery to me
don't hang your car's board in aphid milk
don't freak out
you're like yum
I might think it was a good thing until I got to my car
good
you're telling people at the airport like
dude aphid milk all over my car
dude I'm so stuck
I'm so happy to be home
I'm so thirsty
I didn't even fly back early
aphid milk
I don't even remember
meeting aphid
I don't know how they knew
that was the name of my band
in high school
but they did somehow
that's your Apex twin cover band
aphid milk
but yeah it was
so when I got there, it just...
I couldn't...
I had to drive home like that.
There was no way.
I mean, I was like trying to scratch it with my fingernails.
It wasn't coming off.
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
So teaching yourself how to sort of get rid of that.
Teaching myself, yeah, yeah, yeah.
More like tennis, but just going through the steps of like...
What, did you play tennis?
Teaching my...
I taught myself how to play.
I never...
You played tennis? I didn't... Oh, play. You played- no, you played tennis?
I didn't-
Oh, yeah.
You're a tennis man?
A tennis man?
Yeah.
Alfred Lord Tennisman?
Tennis visited everything.
I was wondering why there were 60 tennis rackets next to your door.
That answers that question.
I never even talked about it.
And the tennis racket shaped me or that appeared in the living room?
It's there.
It is.
I love it.
It's a real piece.
Yeah. I call it a piece. No, I like that teaching- It's a piece. It's a piece. is. I love it. It's a real piece.
I like that teaching.
It's a piece.
That, my hoodie.
I'm trying to think of something that I taught myself. I remember when I, because I thought of one, whereas I, you know, because the synapses,
they fire fast.
Yeah, you're just banging on it.
We've been writing for TV all day.
Not made for an Emmy.
One that I thought of, when I finally taught myself how to tie a tie, after a decade of
struggles, and it just clicked once
and it's just like and now i can do it first time every time and now when you see people that can't
tie a tie you're like what are you an idiot yeah exactly i'm like you fucking asshole never gonna
help them they gotta figure it out themselves it's true though it really is having other people help
didn't help no no i mean that's how like it's so weird when people are around kids and they're like
oh well clearly i'll just be the one to tell them their problem.
And I'm like, you don't think that, like, people have to learn everything themselves.
You can't just tell them, like, well, here's what you got to do when you grow up.
Miam.
Yep.
Miam.
Goddamn.
Miam.
Yeah.
Good story, Zach.
Come at me.
Great pick.
Andrew Michon, time for your second pick.
Okay.
This is something that is a particular thing for me, but it happens to me a lot
and I always feel good whenever it happens,
which is when I drop
something and I catch it before it hits the ground.
Oh! Yes!
What a great pick! That is
nuts, dude. It happens to me a lot.
I don't know if it happens to other people as much as it happens
to me, but multiple times a week
I will drop something and grab it with the
other hand, or sometimes, I don't even understand I will drop something and grab it with the other hand, or sometimes, I don't
even understand how this is possible, grab it with the hand
I dropped it with, and somehow it's
faster than the object falling,
and that feels really good. It's amazing.
That shit happens when you're like,
maybe there's more to me than I thought.
Exactly. Who are you?
Did I do that? Exactly.
You can bit row a radioactive subloss
that. Yeah. You look at your hand,
you go,
quit hiding in there.
Come out.
It is a crazy look into your,
where you're like,
how fast your brain actually works if you're not getting in its way.
Yes,
because you're not even aware
that anything happened
until it's in your hand again.
Yeah.
And you're like,
that was a journey
I wasn't sure I was going on.
Right,
and it's something as insignificant
as like a cell phone
will throw your brain
into that kind of mode.
Yes.
I gotta save it.
Oh, man. And when other people see it, kind of mode. Yes. I got to save it. Oh, man.
And when other people see it, everyone recognizes it.
Yes.
You know what I mean?
It's one of those universal like, hell yeah.
Yeah.
People are like, fuck yeah, dude.
It gives everyone else confidence.
Yeah.
I'll like drop, you know, something in the shower, like, you know, like a razor blade or, you know, like, you know, shaming.
Whoa.
You know what I mean?
You know what I mean?
Like just anything.
And then it just feels so good when you catch it i'll do
that like with coffee at the desk and i'll like move my hand over almost knock it over and they're
like oh shit yeah yeah zero to six you're just like whoa i was so bummed for a second yeah then
you're like no dude here it is my coffee intact i wonder because i used to skateboard a lot like
we were saying i wonder if my reflexes are faster from that and i'm just good at catching stuff
because i almost never drop stuff and have it actually hit the ground yeah yeah god there's been yeah there were times skating where
like you like you try to ollie up on a rail or something and then you just end up walking down
the handrail yeah yeah yeah you're like how the fuck did that happen yeah i should have had a
cracked cracked skull that shit does amaze me like we'll watch skateboarding so and the way people
like get out of those falls sometimes just like i could now i would just be a sack of i mean i would go straight to the ground now but back in the day there's some
instinct kicks in where you're like well don't you don't want to hit your head so you just
get out of it like a cat yeah yeah is it weird when like i mean this is i mean like one step
away from that but like back when i snowboarded sometimes you'd get into like a tricky situation
yeah and things would like slow down and your
brain would be like just chill out yeah and figure this out just don't panic but it happens okay
it's slow but it's also but it's also fast but like feel slow it's weird yeah is that
compared to tennis i've never dropped anything so i've never needed to catch it
except a couple of names
about who retweeted you.
I saw you drop a dope story
on Twitter about a week ago
and some 50,000 other people.
All right.
All right.
There's more to Zach
than just that one tweet.
There's the Zachula thing.
There's more to me
than success.
There's the Zachula thing.
Which is definitely
what I've been known for
this whole time.
There's the Apen milk.
The Apen milk. That's the aphid milk.
That stuff happens to me, sure.
I get retweeted by everyone, but also aphid milk. There's also aphid milk.
Aphid milk. Yeah. That could be your
next thing. Your next big story.
Oh yeah, so
David wants Cuddy Sark.
Sean wants any kind of well whiskey.
I'll take aphid blood.
Okay, cool.
Or aphid milk.
Either one.
Ladybugs drink that.
Yeah, they do.
They do.
Oh.
There it is.
Well, there we go.

Ooh, boom bats.
Zachy Bats doesn't show up until about three in the morning at parties.
Yeah.
What's Zachy Bats?
I don't know.
Oh, okay.
Zach's alter ego.
Do you guys live together?
I feel like there are inside jokes.
There are.
Some of them are.
And sometimes I have to figure out
if it's being created now
or if there's a history.
If it is an inside joke,
I will make a hand motion to you.
Okay, good, good.
God, you're flipping me off right now.
If Andrew just jumped in.
That's the hand motion.
That's one of the inside jokes.
That's not very inviting.
I'm sorry, this is the inside joke, but the middle finger is an inside joke.
Ian and Andrew are actually grabbing each other's mics and speaking into the opposite mic right now.
It's a weird power move that we're both losing at.
It's not even being recorded, this part of the cover.
We're just screaming at each other so loud that it's echoing off the planets
and you're hearing it in your earbuds.
That's beef.
I don't know.
Yeah, that's beef. What is beef?
Dropping something and catching it is
dope. That's another one where
if you...
It's like the sex thing where
if it goes wrong, though...
It's the exact opposite.
It goes from a normal drop to a catastrophic drop.
Yeah, yeah.
Nate Craig has a joke a while back.
I won't do the joke.
But he said he was standing up peeing and he had his hand in his phone and he looked at it and just threw it in the toilet.
Because it's something like he felt like he was going to drop it.
And then he's like, I just threw it in the toilet.
And that's the exact opposite where you're like, what the hell?
Yeah, where your body just does a weird move.
You're like, what was that?
Yeah, or like you try to catch something and end up just throwing it at the ground.
You're like, I just broke that bottle.
Dude, I would have these...
In high school, I would have these weird like spasms where my leg would just kick out.
And every once in a while, if it was like a tight desk, you would just...
In the middle of class, like...
Just a...
One of those dreams where you're like, like, just a, yeah, just.
One of those dreams where you're like,
am I on a bicycle?
Is that a fucking sewer?
Am I going to fall into the sewer?
Will you take that step on the,
okay.
Yeah.
The desk and everyone's looking at you already,
like they were watching you sleep.
You're usually in for some good sleep though,
if you're having those.
Oh yeah.
One other thing I remember just now that I do sometimes is,
sometimes I'll drop something
and then I'll put my foot out
to stop the drop
so it doesn't hit the ground so it hits my foot. You guys do that ever? I've tried to, but it never, sometimes I'll drop something and then I'll put my foot out to stop the drop so it doesn't hit the ground
so it hits my foot.
You guys do that ever?
I've tried to,
but it never,
sometimes I'll end up
kicking it.
That happens in the shower a lot.
Oh, I do it with my phone.
If I don't want it to
actually hit the ground
because I think my foot is softer.
Give it a soft landing.
Yeah, but then sometimes
it hurts your foot.
You wear those big, thick
airwalk shoes.
Yeah, I also wear those
trampoline boots.
You have Osiris.
You have Osiris.
I wear the Osiris ones.
Oh, you got those old D3s.
Yeah, I wear the D3s.
I also got the backpack with the speakers in it.
The G-Box, dude.
Yeah, I got that, too.
That's like landing on a pillow.
It's actually better than holding your phone.
Those shoes were so ugly.
It's crazy.
Even at the time, I was like, this is what you're all doing?
I never bought any of those shoes.
I had some big-ass shoes. I didn't have those. yeah they had the the g-pack or whatever that yeah yeah i had some
thick vans but never the osiris is gone right it's not a brand new yeah they're gone yeah well
shit i didn't have a friend with a backpack but i had a friend who had a backpack and then just
put his computer speakers oh yeah that was the move i do you remember when i dropped the chinese
food at the house the other day you Yes. You and David were there.
I had like a big new Panda Express.
I was just like, my fingers were twiddling.
I was like a guy.
I was like wimpy in a cartoon.
I'm like, oh, cheeseburgers.
Like a rich person about to unwrap that last stamp for their collection.
Right, exactly.
Oh, you don't say.
My entire life I have been looking for an upside down airplane stamp.
And I finally found it.
Oh, no, a strong wind.
It was like that fucking fun.
It just like, I was so excited.
And then it just like, I bumbled it.
And I like thought I had it.
And then it just fell all over my legs.
Dude, his legs.
You were wearing shorts.
I was wearing, of course.
I mean, I was existing.
It was such a bummer.
And I ate most of it anyway.
Some of it went under the couch.
It was like chow mein, too.
So it was real.
Man, it was hard to watch.
The spaghetti of the Far East.
In the same way that seeing someone catch it after dropping is cool.
When you see someone drop it and it's like, you're just like, everyone feels a little tragic.
Harry's like, oh, damn.
Reach into my tragic bag.
It's like everyone pours out a little of their lunch on the ground.
Yep.
Except you guys didn't.
Here's a chicken cube.
Drop something to catch it.
Sean Jordan, it's time for your second and your third picks.
All right.
My second pick is going to be sticking up for someone.
Oh, yeah.
And I'm thinking of a specific time i was in the
airport and these dudes ran to the terminal and they missed their flight and it was not the person's
at the gate it was not their fault at all these guys just ran to the wrong gate because they were
drunk idiots going to vegas yeah and they started screaming at this lady before you finish the story
marissa can we put there goes my hero by foo fighters in the background of this all right
cool i think that would really.
Oh, what's something that builds my confidence?
Saving our country.
So I showed up in a button up and I had all the buttons buttoned, but then my chest swole up.
A couple of them popped.
No, what's the real story?
What's the real story?
So I just walked up and they were screaming at this lady.
And I had been waiting on standby and I walked up.
I go, hey, you guys need to calm down.
And I looked at her.
I was like, I'm so sorry about that.
And I looked at them and I go, it's your fault.
It's not her fault.
This wasn't the gate.
It hasn't been the gate.
I've been here for an hour.
You need to chill out.
And they looked at me like, like, just like animals that you just rub poop in their face.
They were just like, holy shit.
And just walked away.
And then I got on the next flight.
Wow.
Oh, yeah, she hooked it up.
Oh, man.
Because she was like, thank you.
And I go, you guys shouldn't be treated.
It's crazy that people are so mean to you.
And then on the next flight.
So some people would call that heroism.
Some people would call that being a snitch.
Well, I thought that was snitching.
I don't know that's snitching.
I just wanted to needlessly attack.
He's just reacting because we were mean to him.
We've been all over you about the Twitter thing.
I get it.
You're angry.
I'm lashing out. It's night time.
This is my... Yeah. Dracula, what are you doing
out?
Let's say they were in the bar getting drunk and they called their names
and they moseyed over a little bit later
and the person was like, were you at the bar getting drunk?
Because if so, you can't get on this flight.
And I walked up and I go, they were actually at the bar getting
drunk. That's me being a snitch.
No, that's a snitch. Yeah, I would never do that.
We all know you can't fly drunk.
Is that a rule? I don'titch. Now that's a snitch. Yeah, I would never do that. That's the exact opposite. And we all know you can't fly drunk. Right.
Is that a rule? I don't know.
Sean knows that better than anyone.
Then I must have been dreaming the last few hundred flights, because they let you. Old Sean
will enjoy it.
As long as you got a smile on your face, they're
cool with it. Sticking up for someone does feel really good.
I just like it. It makes you
feel good. It feels like you're doing something
right. You're putting some good out into the world, which we might get into those picks a little
bit later in my draft.
But that's definitely one where you just feel, you're just like, yeah, I did something right
for you're supposed to do that.
And, you know, now that maybe this lady's job's a little easier for the day or something.
I don't know.
I remember Dirk Marshall, if he's listening we were driving we were driving to an improv show
hell yeah and uh this was back long before the stand-up days but like we were driving by this
dude who was like screaming at his girlfriend like she was on the phone and he was like trying
to rip it like away from her kind of thing and like we stopped the car and just like got out
and went out and started like shouting at it like you don't fucking do that you don't get to like
put your you know and he started yelling back and I threw him into a bush
which was
Ian's not here anymore
he left
it felt amazing
it felt good
to throw him
into a bush
in hindsight
like a year or two later
I'm like
well then I just left
that's not good
oh yeah
he just took it out
guess what
I'm gonna make him
a little more angry
and I'm gonna dip
let's rattle this bees nest a little more he's and I'm going to dip. Let's rattle this bee's nest a little more.
He's seen you.
I know.
In the retrospect, make sure you're conscious of when and where you're sticking up for people.
Let's rattle this bee's nest a little more.
In a lot of ways, it feels like maybe I threw him into that bush for me and not for her.
So in any situation, identify the bush and the yelling guy and figure out what's going on there.
But yeah, sticking up for someone feels great.
Yeah.
I really enjoy it.
Yeah.
I mean, I was being unnecessarily mean, I guess.
That's not stitching.
But I've definitely – there's been – I like Jersey Mike's if someone's waiting in line and they're like real curt with the people making their sandwich sandwich yeah i always want to just be like hey you think they want to be doing this you think
they're like enjoying making you wait longer dude there's been a couple times where i'm just praying
to god that i won't have to stick up for somebody where you just see someone fly it happened david
and i were at taco bizzle one time and this dude was just on one flying off the handle and he kept
going to the people working.
He'd be like, can you just fucking make it how it looks on the fucking menu?
Fuck.
I'm sorry.
And he'd say that.
He'd go, I'm fucking sorry.
But Jesus Christ, it doesn't look a thing like that.
And I want my fucking food.
And he's like pacing, squirrely.
That story's so wild to me because it's like, where do you think you are?
Where have you eaten before? It's like the picture at whatever the nicest restaurant where
there's pictures of the food
which I think is
the Cheesecake Factory.
Even at the Cheesecake Factory
it doesn't look like
the pictures.
At Taco Bell?
And that's not the kind
of person I want to have
to be like,
hey, be nice to her
because they're fucking crazy.
You take certain
artistic liberties
when you work at a restaurant.
Come on.
Sure.
Ideally, this is
fettuccine Alfredo but I'm going to put my own spin on it.
I mean, they only got so much to work with.
What are they going to do? How are they going to make it look better?
They're in the back, yeah, like
painting it. What are they going to do?
Sticking up for something. Great pick.
Now what's the third pick, you fucking
dork?
Hey, Ian. No, hey, Ian. Don't do that.
Be nice to him. Andrew, you must feel
great about yourself. I do. It was a layup, and, Ian. Don't do that. Be nice to him. Ian, you must feel great about yourself.
I do.
It was a layup.
That must have been a real confidence boost there.
Zach over here is just like, fuck you. You know what I get?
You know what I get my confidence from?
Putting other people down.
Bullying.
Wow, jumping on top.
That's funny.
What's my next pick?
Bullying, motherfuckers.
Zach's over there putting a henna barbed wire tattoo on his forearm.
This is where I get my confidence from.
The world industry is the fire and the water.
So the next pick in my confidence boost.
With the third pick, you made the earth sick.
It's going to be a good room cleaning
is going to be my third pick.
That will pick me up.
That will make me feel good about myself.
I will carry myself as somebody who sleeps
in a
clean space when i do that sure and i do it so little where you give it like a full-on big ass
you punch it just go and punch the wall you piss all over the place a turp to bird them
yeah just a just a good old shellacking just a phenomenal clean phenomenal clean job it just
makes me feel great and then you get done you feel like you really did something we're doing
the inside joke, Hans.
Even that felt like an inside joke that I wasn't in on, but I was there.
That felt like something that you guys were in on.
I had no idea.
I was like, what the hell is going on?
How does it feel?
Not good.
I thought I was having a stroke.
How does it feel?
I can hear ringing in my ears. That's an inside joke with me and D'Angelo.
Oh, nice.
The story behind that is I was headlining, you know me.
Wow.
You know me, headlining a show.
Wouldn't be a story without that.
That's it.
That's pretty much it.
Nice.
I was at the Tacoma Comedy Club, and I was eating shit.
No.
No, no, no, no, no.
You were doing well.
These girls sucked.
We all did well.
Oh, yeah.
Sean was there, too.
Yeah. There was a shitty table. You were doing well. These girls sucked. We all did well. Oh, yeah. Sean was there, too. Yeah.
There was a shitty table who were, like, talking and talking back.
I think one of them reacted weird to me mentioning I was Jewish.
It was a bachelorette party.
Yeah.
Something like that.
And so I went off on them, and they got escorted out of the premises.
Right, right.
And you pick it up from here.
Oh, yeah.
So I did a guest set earlier.
He didn't have me on the show.
I did a guest set.
You were getting there. It sounds like he had you on. Oh,, so I did a guest set earlier. He didn't have me on the show. I did a guest set. You were getting there.
Sounds like he had you on.
So, and I was walking out while Ian was still on stage. You had
maybe like 10 minutes left and they were just
like they had gotten kicked out. So I went
outside to like smoke weed or something
and they were, one of them was out
there and she saw me and she's like,
oh my God. And then she was like,
girls, girls. And then all these, the rest of the party just kind of showed up out of nowhere there and she saw me and she's like oh my god and then she was like girls and
then all these the rest of the party just kind of showed up out of nowhere
and they were like wow you were awesome you were you were for nur minal like one
was so drunk that she was like you were for nur minal top to beard I'm like a
South Park yeah and then like and then would be like
that headliner though what a
what an asshole and they have no
idea that we're like best friends
what a Jew
that hook nose
gobbler
but you
being a dick and jacking up our interest
rates
turbable he was turbable and I don't even think I. Turbable. He was turbable.
And I don't even think I did that well.
I think I was just in that sweet spot
where they weren't drunk yet, so they're like,
that's a thing I remember.
The Molly was just kicking it.
No, they weren't Molly types.
No, they weren't Molly types.
Yeah, but a good cleaning, it can really feel good.
It just transfers over into every other part of my day.
It calms everything down. It really does. It just, yeah, transfers over into every other part of my day. It calms everything down.
It really does.
Having like a nice chill,
just the feeling of like
the sheets being perfect.
Like they're all tight.
You didn't fucking wrangle
them up in the night yet.
It's like a twofold.
When you leave,
like when you're done cleaning
and you leave for the,
whatever you're doing
for the rest of the day
and then when you come back home
to go to sleep
and you're like,
oh, I love,
I love leaving for a trip
with the house as clean as possible.
It's a gift to yourself.
It really is.
It really is.
It takes that like when you come home tired from a vacation.
Oh, it's got to be clean.
It'll stop.
It'll like stop.
It's like killing a hangover by drinking enough water the night before or whatever.
You know, it's like.
Yep.
Stop the problem before it starts.
Yeah, I think keeping your room clean is important in general.
I keep it clean, but it gets cluttered. I hear you. It's a big thing. Like the clothes just it starts. Yeah, I think keeping your room clean is important in general. I keep it clean, but it gets cluttered.
I hear you.
It's a big thing like the clothes just build up.
I think there's like a direct correlation
between how depressed you are
and how much stuff is on your bed that shouldn't be.
You know what I mean?
That's a great theory.
If there are clothes or pieces of paper or whatever,
that is a sign that you need some mental health.
As someone whose room is filthy right now,
I 100% agree with that assessment.
On this half, we keep clean laundry.
On this half, the bed is dirty.
And I'm going to sleep in between.
I don't think I've seen a Boston market in five years,
but there's a bag of the garbage from it
right there under my pillow.
Ooh, and a carcass.
Dude, we used to call Adam landfill
because he had fucking chicken tender boxes in his rooms.
I mean, it was crazy.
He really had, and I probably did too back in the day, but like a
clean pile and a dirty pile of
clothes, but like a pile of fucking
clothes in the basement. Chicken tender
heart hard.
There it is. That's what you could say about
Adam at that time.
My mom used to
get so mad because I would have in my room when i was a kid uh
just a bunch of glasses of half-drained juice yeah with gum in them because i would dip my gum
in the juice and like let it soak up juice stuff that was my whole thing i was like it adds like
four more minutes to the flavor of gum okay doing that weird kid candy logic but yeah there would just be gross anyway
none of us are related i had a a flavored uh seltzer water and put gummy worms in the bottom
of it oh just like a little gummy worm water i think i was influenced by skittle brow from the
simpsons which we did once me and man pay what? And some other people. You know from Skittle Brow?
It's a joke on The Simpsons.
It's like they're selling it at a Pooh's or whatever.
And it's like beer with Skittles in it.
Or Homer makes it.
I'm foggy on the details.
But we were like, all right, let's make our own Skittle Brow.
So we got beer, Skittles.
And we put the Skittles in the beer just to try it.
You could probably taste it pretty hard, right?
It was gross.
It was so gross.
This was before we discovered weed, so we would do some weird shit.
Yeah.
You know, I got less weird on weed.
Almost everyone I know did.
Yeah.
Everyone that has been a longtime weed smoker.
Like, I did it when I was 13.
Zach's eyes are wide open right now.
When I did it when I was like 13, 14 And the bad way
It sucks for me
But when I know adults that do it
It just, like Smith, holy shit
Calms him down, he'd be a nut bob
A nut bob?
I was gonna say a nut ball and a nut job
Everyone else, we'll let you get away with it
He was gonna be a nut bob
I'm glad we didn't
I was gonna say nut ball or nut job And it ended up being a nut bob glad we didn't what is it yeah because i was gonna say nut ball or nut
job nut job nut bob which is probably what he'd be because he should be fucking embarrassed right
now yeah you're stupid i'm kind of embarrassed stupid wait yeah you are cool oh see yeah you're
right thanks andrew no problem i appreciate that man i keep fucking sleeping yeah i keep like
it's actually just staring at. Say another thing about weed.
What do you know about weed,
It's awesome.
I know.
Weed's great.
We tease.
Andrew, it's time for your third pick.
Okay.
This is kind of similar
to your sexual one.
It's in the sexual realm.
Sex.
Oh.
Sex.
I also draft sex.
I take hard sex.
I'm drafting 69.
Nothing's better than walking into Sears after a fresh 69.
Improving my home.
Okay, so let's say you meet someone or you see someone who is in your friend group or something.
And you think that person's really cute and you kind of have a crush on them.
And then you end up with them like months and months later.
Just like that moment where you kind of trace it back to your first love.
It's like completing a crush or something.
I don't know if that's the right term.
Yes, yes.
And you think like, oh, if I had known then that this would happen, that is so interesting.
The first time it happened for me, I was like in college and like it was like orientation.
And there was like one girl in particular.
I was like, that girl is so beautiful.
I came from a small town, so there weren't a lot of people in my town.
So I didn't have a big group to choose from.
So I went to college and I was like,
oh, that girl in particular is really cute.
And then like, you know, six months later,
we like started dating.
And that was just like a really cool moment of like,
wow, it's so interesting that like,
it's completed that journey.
Sure.
You can like someone and then have it work out.
Yeah, yeah.
It's an amazing feeling.
That's basically it, yeah.
But especially in college, it's definitely like,
oh, we were just strangers. Right exactly you know i haven't known her since
i was four from like i think it's particularly acute when it is a longer term thing when it's
not like you meet a girl and you date her right away it's more like it's it builds you know he's
a cute he's a nice he's a cute yeah yeah uh no but i know exactly what you mean yeah when there's
some like it's a specific feeling.
A couple moments leading up to it.
I've had those that took place over years.
Exactly.
I think the unsureness before it actually happens leads into it being better when it does.
Because you're like, oh, is this person like me?
Am I whatever?
For some of us, maybe we're in the weird period of in between.
That period where you forget about that person.
And then it's like, oh, that could always be the case.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what I'm saying.
Like how I met your mom.
I haven't actually.
I haven't met his mom.
And I would never.
I would never meet your mother.
I will never meet your mom.
She who spawns Dracula.
I'm sorry, mom. You can i'm sorry mom you can't come
over you can't come over to the house ian doesn't want to meet you yeah yeah god damn right i don't
want to meet her someone back up my mom someone do the right thing sean your mom's amazing if i i
can't wait to meet her i hope i get to meet her one of these days. Ian, I bet you'll love her when you meet her. I haven't loved in a decade.
Cement running through my veins.
No, for sure. Yeah, completing the crush is an amazing
feeling.
Yeah.
Yeah, thoroughly enjoy it.
I'm trying to, because that was one that I was
toying with today, but I couldn't
quite think of one, but I mean,
I know the feeling. I know it i know the feeling yeah it's specific yeah it's specific yeah nothing coming to mind only did like a year and a half in
college so not a lot of time for sure well it's not just college it happens all the time yeah it
also makes events in retrospect very cute yes exactly when you start dating them you know you
look back and you're like oh shit when we were at that party yeah you know and we both like kind of
like uh whatever just shared a conversation
or even just a brief moment.
Yep.
I remember,
because your girlfriend now,
I remember when you first started,
like,
you were going to go
on your first date with her.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you were like,
well,
she's like,
kind of been seeing this other guy,
not for long.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She's been on a couple dates with him.
And I broke that up.
I'm not really sure.
It's not in my head.
I'm going to swap it down.
Yeah, me and my tumbo.
But yeah, it was like a cool thing. It was a, yeah. That moment where you're like, not really sure. It's not in my house. Swap it down. Yeah, me and my tomba. But yeah,
it was like a cool thing.
It was a,
yeah.
It was like a cool thing.
At that moment where you're like,
not really sure about it,
everything's up in the air.
Yeah,
it's interesting.
Being in a long-term relationship,
it's weird,
but that,
that unsureness is something you miss.
Yeah.
It's bizarre,
because when you're in the moment,
you actually don't like it.
You miss it a lot.
You don't like,
you don't,
like,
it's frustrating,
but then when you,
when it's normal,
I don't know,
it's a weird thing to miss.
Grass is always greener.
When I was a kid, this is fucking insane.
When I was younger, before I had my heart thrown through a wood chipper.
This has never really happened, by the way.
Wow.
Yeah, I got a pig's heart right now.
On the same farm as a wood chipper?
This girl ripped it out with her fucking claws, and she was going,
Onam Shibai, Onam Shibai.
So when that the temple
before that happened though i'd see kids who like got broken up with and they'd be all sad and they'd
be getting all the sympathy and i'm like that looks fucking awesome look at everyone's paying
attention to them right that's crazy to think about like because now that it's happened i'm
like well that's the worst thing we're also all a particular kind of person where we've gotten into
comedy where you go stand up and and just like like accept me accept me accept me yeah so there is like when you're first like
trying when you're first like got a crush on someone you're figuring things out you like the
hit of that acceptance the first time you like i don't convincing that it seems weird but you're
like the first time you like convince someone to like accept you as like a romantic partner is such a strong hit
of acceptance
you know
and like you miss
you miss that later
in a relationship
you almost have to
teach yourself
to appreciate
these other things
and they're worth it
to do it
but it is an education
yeah
I agree
and it's a feeling
that you don't
you know like
at a certain age
you're like
I guess I don't ever
get that feeling again
because you're with
you know you're with you're with and you're like i guess i don't ever get that feeling again because you're with you know you're with yeah and you're like yeah so i guess that those feelings are done that
yeah it's interesting it's not even like a sexual thing it's like it is an acceptance thing it is a
like you said it is a convincing this person that you are worthy of whatever their thing is yes
it's very specific spending time with me the worthiness of the sex when you're like when
it's like okay we, we're going to have
sex, that's almost a better feeling.
It's insane.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Or a different, better, maybe the wrong word, but like a different feeling.
It's a more like, yeah, it's more like a psychological feeling than it's supposed to
a physical one.
Whenever that happens, you're just, because I mean, it's not like I think low of myself,
but I don't have a ton of self-esteem when it comes to it.
See, all day, all night.
That's what he does outside my room.
Hey.
Think back.
There we go.
I was holding out for six seconds.
Hey, you don't treat him like that.
There we go.
You call him a dumb idiot.
You stupid.
Whoa.
What?
Whoa, Zach's a double villain.
Whoa.
No, it's crazy though.
You get that feeling of like, whoa, they like, you know, she likes me for me.
I was about to do the same thing.
Not because.
Whatever the lyrics are.
You know,
we get it.
Yeah.
As a girl flies.
There it is.
It'll be.
Zach to be love.
Zach,
Zach,
Zach,
Zach,
Zach,
Zach,
Zach,
it's your pick.
Okay.
Do it. I'm going to say doing something that scares you. Zach, Zach, Zach, it's your pick. Okay.
Do it.
Do it.
I'm going to say doing something that scares you.
Sure.
I love it.
I'm going to get a milkshake.
That's way scarier than you think it is.
Okay.
That's not a joking matter.
Sorry, sorry, sorry. But when I was a kid, I remember, oh God, I was such a prick as a kid and maybe still
now, but I remember my parents would take me was a kid, I remember, oh, God, I was such a prick as a kid and maybe still now.
But I remember my parents would take me to a restaurant that I had never been to before.
And I would be so apprehensive, maybe not scared or just like unfamiliar.
And I was just like, I don't want to go here.
This is stupid.
Yeah. And then you eat the food and it's good and you have to do that thing where you're like, they're like, how was it?
And you're like, pretty good.
I mean, it was, I guess, if you want to come here tomorrow.
But that feeling of like, oh, right.
Just in high school, I remember like we went to this rock quarry to go jump off.
You guys all played Russian Roulette at the top?
And it was like 90 foot cliffs into this bottomless water and so terrified.
But once you did it that first time, you were just like, oh, this is all I want to do is just keep climbing up here it feels amazing doing this yeah and just like realize it's like that moment
of realizing like oh i i am putting my constraints on myself that you feel like are not by your
choosing but when you break through those you're like oh right why do i keep telling myself i can't
do this or like yeah well this isn't who am. I can't just write a movie.
But just try, maybe. I don't know.
You must confront the wolf
and defeat the wolf
to become the wolf.
You know?
Ian's eyes rolled back in his head for a second.
All the lights turned off.
Say what now?
We did this big hike in Yosemite,
the Half Dome hike, and at the end of it
there's these that you have to go like up a mountain pretty much like the face of a mountain
it's not vertical but it fucking looks like it is and you have to there's like safety ropes you
have to pull yourself up it's terrifying and i almost bailed like we did nine miles or something
up and i was like no i'm not gonna do it everyone's like you what's the whole point you have to do it
yeah and so you just i scampered up it real quick.
And when I got to the top, I was just like, holy shit.
You put Brock Lesnar in front of me, dude.
Two South Dakota boys going at it.
I'll take him on.
If you would have split into two people, one of you stayed and the other one went up.
The other one who went up and came back would have been like, you're an idiot.
And we shoved him off the mountain.
Now the strong one. Now I'm like, you're an idiot. And we shoved him off the mountain. Now the strong one.
Now I'm getting Laura.
I did call her from the top and I was like,
I called you and my mom and I'm on top of the world.
Oh, wow.
Oh, my God.
I would have paid so much money to hear that.
You have to sleep somewhere else tonight.
I would have paid so much money to hear you.
I'm going to sleep on top of Half Dome tonight.
Oh, you slept up there?
No.
Everyone at base camp, though, they're like, yeah, let's bring some shooters up.
And I'm like, are you fucking crazy?
I want to get drunk when I'm like nine miles up in the air.
No.
We weren't nine miles up in the air.
Right, right, right.
We were in the atmosphere.
I'm on the moon.
We didn't climb a rope straight up for nine.
Yeah.
You know,
like the president fitness test.
We just did that for nine miles.
Yeah.
I can see South Dakota from California.
Big old bell.
I think it's a Liberty bell up there.
Doing something that scares you is a good feeling.
That's a good one.
Yeah.
Hell yeah.
Uh,
it's time for my third pick.
I'm going to tell you that my fourth pick as it is,
as it is,
as it is what it is.
I'm going to pick catching yourself in the mirror.
Yeah, dude.
But it's that just right look where you're like, it's a good angle.
Yeah.
You're looking good.
And you're like, ooh, who the fuck is that?
And you put your hand by your mouth like Jamie Foxx would or something.
Absolutely.
Oh, shit.
I might do a fucking Birdman hand thing thing like you've ever talked to someone like
that what do you want here at china express well i don't know i don't know right into it
if you can't if you don't know what a birdman hand thing is oh marissa's gonna take a thing
and post it you're rubbing lotion into your hands right now like rubbing lotion like what am i gonna
get into thought and the jamie fox it's also also the Cold Stone Creamery hand motion where you're like, what am I going to have whipped into that ice cream?
I know we've talked about this before, but do you ever look in the mirror and act like you're laughing at something?
Where you're just looking and you're like, oh, shit.
Just to give yourself a smile.
I'll give it several looks.
I'll do the, oh, shit.
I'll do the, did you just make eye contact from across the bar? Oh, me? Yeah. I'll do the, oh, shit. I'll do the, did you just make eye contact from across the bar?
Oh, me?
Yeah.
I'll do the, who, me?
Yeah.
And I'll do maybe the, hey, what's up, nod.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Where you go to a party and someone's like, they're clearly going to want to talk to you,
but you don't want to talk to them.
Right.
But you do want to acknowledge them.
So you're going to say, hey, what's up?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
But I'm over here.
Yeah.
No, I'm good.
No, I'm over here, actually.
But hey, what's up?
Yeah, I live in this world.
This was on my list. You stole one of mine. Oh, shit. Yeah. But I'm over here. Yeah. No, I'm good. No, I'm over here, actually. Yeah, I live in this world. This was on my list.
You stole one of mine.
Oh, shit.
Yeah.
What?
Which one?
Nodding at someone?
No, no, no.
Straight mirror.
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
Just walking past and being like, oh.
Oh, when you catch it.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
A lot of times.
You might even throw it in reverse for thirst and take a look in the mirror again.
In the mirror to myself, I'll do the George McFly and I'll go, you get your damn hands
off her and I'll just point at the mirror.
Hey, you.
You know what's interesting about this one, though?
I agree with you on that.
Yeah.
But it also feels embarrassing if someone catches you doing it.
Sure.
Takes you back down.
But that's what's so weird is we all like it.
I know.
It's one of those things.
But then we feel judged by other people.
But I'm sure everyone likes doing it themselves.
It's one of those weird things.
Yeah.
It is one of those weird things.
I don't know what the word is.
It's like something that you do,
but that everyone does,
but everyone also judges too.
Right.
If I caught someone doing that,
I'd be like,
you do look good.
I'd say that because I'd be like,
I don't want to get embarrassed.
Well, you're a hero.
Yeah, you're a hero.
Because at work,
like if you open the men's room,
it's right to where the sinks are in the mirror.
Dude, it happens.
So every time I'll be like washing my hands,
and I'll be like,
all right, all right.
And then they open the mirror,
and you're like,
no, I've never looked at myself
before ever
I don't
what am I a person
to me it's like
hey listen
if you get fucking caught
you gotta
Thelma and Louise
that shit
you gotta
press on the gas
as fast as you can
maybe you'll make the jump
maybe not
what I do
if I'm caught
in that situation
is I just
I just
kiss the mirror
i kiss myself in the mirror just let them know i'm really feeling it that's the way to get out
you walk out and you're like you're welcome oh shit you get to look at me too
you know what i'm not even gonna charge you you. You're lucky. You're lucky. You're lucky. You're seeing this pro bono.
And this is pro boner.
Dog.
And this is.
Sometimes we're sixth graders in here.
This one.
This is also one that gets magnified if you've had a couple of drinks.
And we've talked about that before.
Oh, yeah.
You've had a couple of drinks.
When you're in the pocket there.
And you're like.
I'd fuck me.
Just thinking like.
Every girl that's ever looked at me and not wanted is crazy.
Yeah.
All right.
Here, I'll take this one.
Now, this one, we joke about, with my fourth pick, we joke about this a lot.
I haven't been in the rotation lately.
But when you're in like a regular gym rotation.
Right. Like working out, eating right maybe can be part of it.
Of course.
But just like on your P's and Q's, your Q's and P's.
Mm-hmm.
Benching.
Yeah.
Deadlifting.
Working the arms.
Yeah.
Leg day.
Leg day.
Leg day.
I mean, you're only going one day.
Yeah.
Once per day.
Once per day.
And you want to bump it up to like three times a day.
Well, that's what I'm looking for.
Yeah.
Three times a day.
I haven't been to the gym for a while, but like when you do, it's just like such a confidence booster,
especially early in the day.
And then the rest of that day,
you're just like,
I already went to the gym.
You know?
Right.
Yeah.
It's like a fucking
Navy SEAL commercial.
I've done more before 6 a.m.
than you did all day.
Exactly.
That's why I like the surfing thing.
I go at like,
you know,
6 in the morning.
Well, yeah.
I'm home by 10 a.m.
And it's like,
I've already done this activity
that's physical.
It's nature.
It's fun. That's why I like living with Sean Jordan. By the time it's like, I've already done this activity that's physical. It's nature. It's fun.
That's why I like living
with Sean Jordan.
By the time he wakes up,
I've already done everything
I need to.
Oh, nice.
There it is.
I'm just a lazy piece
of fucking shit.
Hey, now.
Don't talk to Sean like that.
There we go.
There we go.
That's my friend.
Yeah.
It's almost like I'm training
all of you to be natural helpers.
This is just a guy's oh yeah
i like it yeah i already received that training you fucking idiot that's right shit oh fuck
doesn't sound like you passed it uh yeah so get into a regular gym rotation yeah for sure i mean
just working out like when i was running i'm in the same vein but i was running a lot and that'd
be i'd wake up go running it's like we got to get you to come to the gym.
Yeah,
we do.
I think it'd be fun.
I think it's,
it's gotta happen.
I,
when I,
when I mentioned it,
you know,
you like,
you'll mention something
around your significant other
and you can tell by like
how enthused they are
if they're deep down.
I was like,
yeah,
Ian was bringing up
going to the gym.
Laura's like,
yeah,
right.
Like you ran around
screaming. You should do that. And I'm like, Laura's like, yeah. Right? You should do that.
You should do that. And I'm like, well, I fucking will.
And now it's going to be out of spite. Now we're going to do it.
Oh, that's how most of the good gym sessions
are fueled. Oh, yeah. That's where you can
really use that fuel. Yeah. You know what I mean?
Burn that.
It's also nice to go, like,
into the sauna right before you leave.
That's called the executive. Yeah. We call the Jewish workout, the Jewish executive workout.
If you want to trace the roots of that phrase. That's what we'd do. We'd go like when we were
hung over in Sioux Falls, we'd go to the center and we'd tell everybody, yeah, we're going to go
hit the fitness center. They'd be like, oh really? And we're like, steam room, therapy pool, sauna,
like nothing crazy, hot tub in there. I mean, I'll be dead lifting in the sauna room.
Gonna go stand naked in the locker room for about 45 minutes.
Watch a little CNN, maybe shoot like a couple free throws on the way out.
Oh, dude, there was a guy at the gym in Portland I went to that he would watch TV in the locker room.
Oh, naked, dude.
People would do it naked in leather chairs.
Leather chairs, naked.
For multiple hours.
Like, I would come in, work out, and and leave and they would still be in that same place.
Get the divorce, man.
You know what I mean?
Get the divorce.
Get the divorce.
For you and for her.
That'd be so funny.
You'd just put your hand on his naked shoulder
and be like, just sign the papers.
For you and for her.
For both of you.
Oh, man.
The best breakup I ever heard
was a guy on the phone in the gym locker room.
And it must have been like late december like 2017
or 2016 and the guy was just like i'm sorry babe i'm gonna have to leave you in 2016
i might call whoever i was dating that and say that i'm sorry i'm gonna have to leave you behind
sorry because it feels so like i'm doing you a favor. Yeah.
And you'll get over it.
It's last year.
That's cold-blooded.
Well, the answer is the time.
Yeah.
And I have to do laundry and pack.
Let's move on to Zach Stiscani's fourth pick.
All right.
Fourth pick.
I'm going to pick prepare and cooking a family meal.
Oh.
Yeah.
Yeah, that'll do it.
So this is one that, for me at least, I think of the ones that my mom made for my birthday or Oh. Yeah. Yeah, that'll do it. So this is one that like, for me at least, I think of the ones that like my mom made
for like my birthday or something.
Yeah.
Because if I'm-
And she just had an extra pep in her step after that?
She was like seem confident?
Oh, after making it for me?
Yeah.
No, no, no.
I'm saying when I do it for myself now.
Wait.
Preparing and cooking a family meal for myself.
But you think back to when your mom did it.
Right. And he had said Right. Well that's the
meal that I'm cooking. Was she making Swiss
cheese? Because this story is full of holes.
The recipe
the meal that
I'm making is one that she made for me.
Oh that harkens back. Yeah so that's what I mean
by family meal. The name of the fourth hot
sauce that we're going to get. Harkens.
Sorry if that was unclear.
Some of those meals where you sneak meatballs in and don't tell everyone.
Don't put that on there.
You were the only person.
That's not his fault.
That is crazy.
That's your fault.
Where you sneak a bunch of meatballs into what I thought was marinara sauce, marinara
soup, and then you sneak meatballs in there.
Zach made fucking spaghetti and meatballs for us.
Yeah.
It was delicious.
It was delicious.
The meatballs.
Had people over, told everyone, hey, it's spaghetti and meatballs for us. Yeah. It was delicious. It was delicious. The meatballs. Had people over, told everyone,
hey, it's spaghetti and meatballs.
The meatballs did what meatballs do
and sink to the bottom of the pan
as they are a dense
and heavy meat product.
And Sean didn't go deep.
He just thought they might,
he was like,
well, the meatballs
must have been diced up
very finely
and put into the sauce.
Meat sand.
Meat sand.
Meat sand.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Or dusting.
But yeah,
so everyone ate
and then Sean was like,
wait,
where'd you get those meatballs?
And we're like,
what are you talking about?
I go,
he snuck meatballs
into the marinara soup?
That sheisty Italian dickhead.
But you did this on Instagram.
You made like a pasta dish.
I made a shrimp and zoodle zucchini dish.
But anything like that.
Zucchini noodle. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. Not too quick on the uptake, but anything like that. A zucchini noodle.
Oh.
Yeah.
Not too quick on the uptake.
It does feel good.
It feels great.
Oh, it feels great.
And you eat it
and it doesn't have that
like heavy feeling
you get with
Panda Express.
With Panda Express.
Which I'm definitely
looking forward to.
Me too.
You mean it doesn't have
the same feeling
as like a can of Hormel
and nine tortillas?
No.
That's not where it's just,
no?
But just eating something that you're like, oh, I put this together.
Somehow these idiot hands made something edible.
A lot of these get back just to the concept of self-love.
Yeah.
In a real way.
In like spending some time on yourself and doing things where you're like an act of love
directed towards yourself.
It's true.
It can really boost your confidence.
And valuing and appreciate what you can do.
Yeah.
It's like cooking.
A lot of cooking
for yourself
yeah
you ever taken
a cooking class
I haven't
it's pretty fun
my friend Chef Lance
at Sioux Falls
yeah we took like
three cooking classes
it was a fucking blast
I forgot about that
it's fun
till just now
I'm glad I reminded you
it was fun
I took one this weekend
that's why I brought it up
did you really
I went to Joshua Tree
was there like a dish
yeah it was like
well my girlfriend
and I have weird
eating habits
we're both vegan and stuff it's like uh well my girlfriend and i have weird eating habits we're
both vegan and stuff and so it's not weird well we're also gluten-free we have our
anyways so we have our specific things anyways there's this cooking class with this woman who
cooks in that way and yeah we made this like really amazing like it was like a leak it was
like a leak creamy sauce that was like coconut milk and leeks that were like real, like reduced and boiled down.
And then we made this like some nice lentils and a really delicious like mushroom reduction.
It was just great.
It was like we're doing reductions and stuff like that,
that you would never do yourself in the kitchen.
Yeah, yeah.
That someone is like guiding you through.
It was really cool.
If you don't have coconut milk, you can substitute it with aphid milk.
Yeah, so you can use aphid milk.
Yeah.
The chef's going to look at you like you're a have coconut milk, you can substitute it with aphid milk. Yeah, so you can use aphid milk. Yeah. It's a little browner.
The chef's going to look at you like you're a fucking lunatic.
You can do it.
The chef's going to call the cops, so you're going to have like five minutes to actually
finish the dish.
It will stick to your ribs.
But yeah, the cooking class is fun because it's not something you would ever probably
do on your own because it's a little too involved, but they're helping you through it, and it's
kind of fun to do something that's impressive.
Plus you walk away with something in the back Yeah, right. In the back pocket.
It's good for when you travel, too.
Like, I went to Thailand.
I took a cooking class in Thailand, and it was so fun.
Oh, shit.
What a good idea.
Yeah.
So that's a hot tip for traveling.
Oh, yeah.
Take a cooking class.
Thank you.
Great idea.
Great opportunity to make your fourth pick.
Okay.
My fourth pick is if you're in public, you're at a party or something, and you know you
recognize someone who you've met before, but you're not quite sure a hundred
percent.
And then you kind of think, you know, and then you just go and you say what you think
their name is and you get it right.
Wow.
Yeah.
Because you really are going out on a whim.
Ooh.
And it's a tough, and you fail more than you succeed.
Yeah, you really do.
And the failure is the worst feeling.
The failure rate is definitely pretty high.
Oh, but that really, it hurts your confidence a little and their confidence a lot.
Everyone loses.
Everyone loses.
But when you get it right, you both feel great.
And it really is a nice moment.
They feel amazing.
That's another thing.
Yeah, everyone feels good.
That's really a rising tide sort of thing.
It is.
A lowering tide situation.
But also a lowering tide.
It's really, it is an everyone wins or everyone loses situation.
It can go wrong.
I know.
I know.
You're like Mark.
They're like Brad.
You're like, well, they're both names.
I was pretty close.
You got to give me that.
You got to give me that.
I did think it was a name.
I did think it was a name.
That's so funny on two levels because those are both, but they're also both name names.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Brad, Mark, Steve.
They're like that kind of family name. Have you ever let somebody- They're basically the livestock name names. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Brad, Mark, Steve.
They're like that kind of family.
They're basically the livestock of names.
Farm animals.
They're from that coaching tree.
Yeah, yeah.
It's not like Sebastian, which is like the cheetah of the name world.
Right, right.
Oh, dude.
That was almost my name.
Sebastian?
Yeah, my dad wanted to name me Sebastian.
Sebastian Toscani? If you would have said my name, there would have been a garlic taste in your mouth. Wow. Sebastian? Yeah, my dad wanted to name me Sebastian. Sebastian Toscani? You would have had, if you would have
said my name, there would have been a garlic taste in your mouth.
Wow. Sebastian-acula.
I don't know. I don't know. Sebastula?
I don't know. Sebastula. Sebastula.
Sebastula. That's what you put burgers with.
Sebastula from my...
I have let, I've been
guilty of letting someone call me the wrong name
for like months. My friend Mike
when we were kids, he thought my name was Steve for like a month.
And then I told him, he's like,
why didn't you tell me?
I didn't want to embarrass you.
And he's like, I'm not embarrassed right now?
It's worse.
You should be.
I built up a habit now, man.
I call everyone at work.
Because unless I'm 100% sure of their name,
a lot of dudes.
A lot of dudes. Yeah.
A lot of mans.
Mans.
Sup, mans.
Hey, dude.
What's up, man?
Hey, good morning.
What up, dude?
Sup, lady.
I say that a lot.
Sup, lady.
Hey, lady.
Hey, lady.
I say it like Tracy Morgan, though.
That is, God, getting it wrong.
Oh, I've gotten it wrong at 100 miles an hour, too.
Yeah.
Were you just going?
So confident, just going? So confident.
Just going.
You're like, you know, way off.
Brenda.
What up?
Jessica really said Brenda.
Yeah.
Have you ever forgotten someone's name on like, I've done it on stage introducing like the
next comic.
One time, but it was the worst feeling.
Yeah.
I've done it once and it was gnarly.
I hated it. Uh, yeah but it was the worst feeling. Yeah, I've done it once, and it was gnarly. I hated it.
Oh, yeah.
And it was Oprah.
Shit, what is it, Dr. Phil?
She's like, you are not my favorite thing.
That's what she said to you.
You're in my book, Schlub.
Wow.
Right?
And then maybe a third joke we'll edit in later.
Something to figure out.
Sean, is there ever your fourth pick?
All right. This last, well, well no i won't do that oh and then your fifth pick yeah yeah last one's gonna be
pretty much for me i mean if it's confidence for everybody last one's gonna be uh getting invited
to like a sort of exclusive party oh yeah one of those things where you're just like oh no way
they thought about me where people that you don't think, that you're not in their day to day.
Like why, you know, whoever thinks about me.
And then you get invited to like a barbecue.
The CA Emmys party.
Or the Governor's Ball after the Emmys.
I get it.
Yeah, one of those parties.
Or a barbecue at Bronger's.
A Bronger Q.
Yeah.
I mean, that's kind of what I was thinking of.
Because right when I moved here, that was one of the first things where somebody realized that like i lived in los angeles
and they went out of their way to be like hey we'd love it if you came over to our party and then you
get there and there's like 15 people there like oh yeah this is something that like small they
picked they chose full dismemberment plan you are invited yeah it feels good and it's just kind of
like oh look at look at this know, people give a shit.
Maybe I make this a little more fun.
You know, maybe there's a point to be here.
It's funny.
For all of these, the opposite makes you feel bad.
Like not being invited.
You're seeing on Instagram a party that you're like, all my friends are there?
What is this?
Oh, yeah.
All of them.
All of them. Every one of them?
All these things today, they really have a dark side.
He was in his room.
He snuck out?
He snuck out through the window, this guy.
It does, yeah.
I'm at the phase now, and maybe it's just because I'm washed,
where I'm like, if I see a bunch of people at a party on a Friday
that I wasn't invited to, I'm like, tight.
Well, there's that part where you're like,
I don't want the confidence boost to stick around the crib for me. Well, sometimes knowing what they're doing, you're like the confidence boost is sticking around the crib
for me
well sometimes knowing what they're doing you're like
oh well I choose not to do that
and then there's no like well what could everyone be doing
out there at night like what am I missing out on
I'm gonna confidently take this video game version of the trailblazers
to the championship tonight
I'm gonna shoot some nazis
just in there dusting nazis
god damn nazis yeah oh fucking nazis just in there dusting nazis god damn nazis
uh
and your
uh
final pick
final pick
is gonna be
getting Final Jeopardy right
that is like
my biggest confidence boost
in the world
I absolutely love it
yeah
when Final Jeopardy comes on
and you're like
boom
right away
you got it
nothing better
oh yeah
I've been wanting to pick that
the whole time
and nobody else was gonna pick that no on my list was well mine was running the table on a category oh god
that feels good when you clear it god that feels good yep when you just get a nice final jeopardy
and you're just yeah it's just especially when no one else gets it you're the only one in the room
and no one on the show gets it and you're just like fuck yes dude i won jeopardy is how you
think of it me win we're having some some people in my
social circle become answers on jeopardy recently which is pretty astonishing camille was one the
other day uh portugal the man yeah showed up as an answer the other day or it's fucking awesome
that so what would you okay would you rather be not to ask you because I know. Andrew, Zach, would you rather be the answer to a Jeopardy question or in a rap lyric?
I think Jeopardy question because that feels more mainstream.
I feel like rap lyric can be obscure.
I don't know, though.
Rap lyrics are forever, though.
Now, Ian, you get to answer.
Probably rap lyric.
Yeah, I figured.
Rap lyrics are forever, I guess.
Yeah.
I guess it depends on the...
I just don't know who the rapper is.
It could be anybody.
It could be a mixtape.
It could be any Jeopardy question about you.
I'm on my chicken parmesan, pocket fat like rich homie Carms.
And then people are like, who's rich homie Carms?
And that's Ian Carmel, dude.
He was Final Jeopardy yesterday.
Yeah, that's the two-foot.
You know, the Emmy guy.
In fact, I'd like to be an answer on Jeopardy.
As a rapper?
This comedian was referenced by...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because what if it was like Birdman?
I mean, that'd be twice in one podcast.
But they're not...
But it's like not the rapper you'd want,
where you're like, oh, well, that's not good.
Don't let Birdman hear you saying that about Birdman.
I'd love it. Listen, my name is Andrew Mich't let Birdman hear you saying that about Birdman. I'd love it.
Listen, my name is Andrew Michon, and I'm coming at you, Birdman.
You're acting like Birdman's not sitting in the corner of the room right now.
Birdman comes to every...
He's a huge AFE guy.
What happened to that boy?
He's got the only AFE hat in existence.
Hat sauce.
He's got it.
See, it's a sriracha hat, so I call it hat sauce.
Oh, nice.
Yeah, that's a perfect reaction.
I heard you say hat sauce on the knee earlier,
and I was just like, I'll just let this go.
I'm not going to get it.
That's one of those scenic areas where we won't pull up.
Is that an overlook?
We'll wait for something bigger.
We'll wait for something a little bigger.
Yeah, I've seen most of Idaho.
I'm sure it's nice.
It's really not that cool when you get up close.
It's just a big needle.
Oh, that's tight.
Andrew, it's time for your final pick.
Okay.
Impressing your significant other's parents.
Oh, shit.
No, think about that.
Never has that happened
you never impressed the admiral
no
I would be astonished if you hooked him up to a lie detector
and he said he was impressed with anything I've ever done
I'm pretty good at it
as an adult
and it feels good because
it does feel like you're putting your best self out there
and maybe there's a bit of trickery involved
for sure but even that you feel good about.
Yeah,
it's good.
Yeah.
Like you're a Nancy though.
Yeah.
Trickster.
I remember when I was in like seventh grade,
my first girlfriend,
I went out to lunch with her and her dad.
Yeah.
And I think I had already eaten lunch or something earlier.
I wasn't very hungry.
I ordered a fruit salad.
Wow.
He called me fruit salad.
The rest of our relationship,
like behind my back to her, like, Oh, you're gonna go hang out with fruit salad. Wow. He called me fruit salad the rest of our relationship. Like behind my back to her.
Like, oh, you're going to go hang out with fruit salad?
That's fruit salad.
I was very...
Damn.
Yeah, it really didn't...
You're like a dog.
I'm just, you know.
But the end of that story is that he got arrested for being a huge cocaine dealer.
So in the end, I kind of won.
Don't stop till you're numb.
Yeah.
Damn.
But no, but as an adult, impressing your significant other's parents, it feels good.
You want to treat those parents like if your parents were also there, they would get jealous.
Like, why doesn't he treat them like that?
If staying in a relationship was dictated by how their parents felt about you, I'd be
like four or five relationships ago still going strong in that.
I would have been on my seventh marriage.
Oh my God.
I'm amazing.
Yeah.
Oh man.
Yeah, you want to be
when you guys break up
that parent is like,
aw.
You want that.
You want that.
Dads love me.
Moms want to be me.
You have a joke
about like the opposite,
right?
Where you're someone
you used to date
and your mom's like,
oh, I never really liked her
or whatever.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like you don't want that.
She'll get your back.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But yeah,
but that's also just
something Sue Carmel
will do is flip.
Oh, she'll flip on you?
She'll turn states evidence for you. She she's loyal yeah uh so there you go i'm pressing
your parents she is a cabinet member shout out to say sue carmelle love your mama best in the
business uh zach zach tuscani all right fifth and final pick i'm gonna go something near and
dear to my heart maybe near and dear to everyone in this room's heart. I'm going to go conversation with Sean Jordan.
Oh!
Very nice! You sweetheart.
Yeah, that's why I could be so
venomous to you earlier.
You want to take someone to heaven,
start them in hell.
Break you down before I build you up.
Well, that's astonishing.
But so many times where I've been
going through it.
Which is all the time.
All the time.
Most days.
Yeah.
Sometimes twice a day.
I get over it and then I get back under it.
Two days.
You're not going to win state.
Sean's been like the first person I call and always makes me feel better.
And I think it's just like I've never seen you in a where I'm like, oh, he's kind of, like, I feel like I have my days where it can be pretty rough.
And I don't think that you really, you don't, you've never like added unnecessary weight to anything.
Try not to.
I mean, it's crazy.
That's such a, such a cool compliment.
Let's drop in the Foo Fighters sample.
And we can actually get Dave roll in here.
He's like,
I love talking to Sean too.
I mean,
my friends are the most important thing in the world to me.
Always have been,
always will be.
And like,
yeah,
it,
you,
it's nice to have somebody who's kind of a constant in,
you can kind of count on to be like chipper or whatever,
not have it be fake.
And like,
yeah,
I get bummed,
but I want, I want to be there for my friends whenever i can because that's what's
important to me so i want if a friend of mine's having a rough day yeah let's talk about it let's
try to turn that around let's watch fucking that's why i like goofy shit like entourage
and shit like that because it just gets your head out of all the stress like just
just tune out for a minute forget about it you know like that's the
whole point of of stuff like this life is fucking short they just laura they just had to put down
her uh brother's dog today and just even something as trivial as that not trivial but where i'm just
like man you never know so if someone's bummed or if oh yeah if i can do anything to help then
yeah i'm there 100 probably the Probably the worst. I mean, just
I can't be around any fucking people right now.
Dude, I was
going through one and Sean was the first call.
I was losing it. I was
doing that thing in public where you're like, I don't even care
what people think of me. Just screaming.
Yeah, yeah. Leave me alone!
She did!
You know that.
Yeah, conversation with Sean Dorn
always
always get your confidence up
well fuck me
I have to pick
this is an opportunity
for you to say
oh mine was just taken
you can pick
eating Taco Bell
I gotta like
give out the Oscar
after the death montage.
Yeah, we all miss. Best supporting actor.
We all miss fucking Clint Eastwood or whatever.
Best animated short.
They couldn't be here.
God.
With my last one, I'm going to put owning a room.
Yeah.
You know when you like, it'll happen sometimes, especially after a comedy show, but sometimes
you'll go into a room and something clicks and you're like, oh, I'm by far the most charming
person in here.
And then you just start bouncing around like a hummingbird and the room is full of flowers.
You're just like charming this group over here.
And like everybody's waiting for their moment with you.
That is kind of thing.
I've been out to lunches with like a girlfriend where they're like, all right, you're going to meet my friends.
And I'm like, fuck, yes, let's go meet your friends.
I will run that.
I'll do 45 clean in front of your friends at lunch.
And yeah, I love doing that.
It's the,
it's the best feeling.
Cause it's so fun.
And it's like,
it doesn't,
people might think it sounds arrogant,
but it doesn't have to be.
You can just be fun.
You're just on.
People enjoy that.
They just want to be around someone fun.
Yeah.
And there could be different versions of it for different people.
You don't even,
but just going in,
feeling yourself and like feeling yourself,
but also feeling like yourself.
Right.
Just going in and like being charming and confident but also feeling like yourself yeah right just going
in and like being charming and confident with people yeah yeah yeah and if i want to do that
i have to wait for ian to leave the room that's right get the fuck out of here i need like a worse
hummingbird in that room yeah like a broken wing not quite in the same place moving down
it's spastic people like it had too much sugar juice.
No, it is fun.
Just coming in.
It's got one weird eye.
Like you're fucking Zach Morris or something.
Just like, hey, whoa.
And like Tom Cruise would be a better reference.
Knowing everyone's name.
Just being fucking, hey, whoa, what's going on?
My older brother will run a room like that in a very impressive way.
Because he's so dope.
Robert Bear Blaylock.
Everybody wants to talk to Bear.
Just go in and just, yeah.
You've got to meet my friend Bear.
You're like, yes, I need to meet your friend Bear.
He walks in, a couple buttons down.
A couple buttons down.
Hair's doing its thing.
Got a drink in the hand.
Cranberry vodka.
Something in one of the hands.
And a shirt that doesn't have any cranberry vodka on it.
Snapping with the other one.
On fire.
A man on fire.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's the shit.
But yeah, owning a room, man, it feels amazing.
It does.
Nice.
So that's the final pick of the draft of a little confidence boosters.
Wow.
Oh, yeah.
I was goose bumpy.
That was fun.
That was confidence boosting.
The whole thing was confidence boosting.
It really was.
Just to recap, Sean, you went first.
You took having sex.
Bristle out.
Sticking up for someone.
A good room cleaning.
Getting invited to a sort of exclusive party,
and then getting Final Jeopardy right.
Those are all euphemisms for sex.
All right.
Room cleaning.
Sort of exclusive party.
Exclusive party.
How'd Final Jeopardy go?
Well, I got it right.
I'll tell you that.
I got it right.
Andrew, you went second.
You took getting recognized,
dropping something,
and then catching it,
completing the crush cycle,
guessing someone's name right,
and then impressing your significant other's parents.
Man, that's great.
That is a good one.
Those are great.
The best part is when he says them all at the end.
You're like, I like this.
Oh, boy, here we go.
Zach, you took getting a haircut right from my hands.
From him.
Teaching yourself something,
doing something that scares you,
preparing and cooking a family meal,
and then a conversation with Chantel Jordan.
That's just a good day.
Yeah, that's a good day.
You've had that day.
I went last and I took rocking a new fit,
hearing a dank song,
catching yourself in the mirror
when you're looking just right,
ooh, when you're looking just right,
getting into a regular gym
rotation and then just sort of running
a room. Yeah. We left some
good ones on the board probably too.
Making flirty eye contact with a girl.
Doesn't even have to...
And to extend that one, just
like having... We've talked about this on the podcast
before. I don't remember which episode it was.
But like flirting with a girl
