My child is sleeping one room next door. I'm the podcast of Fantasy Brass. Awful. Awful.

We are the podcast that Fantasy Drafts anything and everything from the world of popular culture. On today's episode, we are drafting our predictions for 2026. If I woke him up, it would be bad news. Yeah. I remember when Max was brand new and we, were, we were pretty new to this Zoom, right? Zoom stuff. I sound like a dipship, but we were new to Zoom.

Yeah, it was about, yeah. Well, a year in, we were not new, but you know what I mean. Yeah. There was a day there where I'm like, all right, I got to go record and we, ah, we just chopped it up for like 45 minutes before we started. What was anyone doing, you know? Yeah. And I go back upstairs and she was like, like an Italian wife caricature, just like

fuming, stomping on the floor. It was, she hit you with a rolling pin. That's what it looked like was going to have. happen. Why Italian? Why Italian? You know how they get. They're a spicy people.

You know how they are. Listen, I think you can make fun of Italians. That's at the top of my list. Italian wife caricature. It's set off alarm bells in my head for some reason. David knew what I was saying. Well, I think we all know what you're saying. Wait, I can't say it.

Isaac, keep it in. New bit. Isaac, keep it in. Something did not get cut. They need to know. Hashtag Italian wife caricature. Hit us up in the comments with hashtag Italian wife caricature of positive things. You think Italian wives do.

Fish is seven fishes, isn't that one? The Feast of Seven Fishes. Love it. Is that their New Year's thing? Christmas? Christmas? What is the Feast to Seven? Isaac, you know?

I'm looking it up. I've never heard. I had no idea what you're talking. It is the, it is Italian, Italian-American. for Christmas Eve they eat a lot of seafood I have a seafood chowder on Christmas Eve one year and I still think about it

I know don't make that face Sean tomato soup and ham He just doesn't understand it's better down where it's wetter It's way better to it's in the song That is the song isn't If you isolate that line That's the different song It just sounds like a Caribbean guy going crazy

How come nobody flipped that for a beat? I don't know. That would have been great. I don't know. Trust me, it's better. Down where it's wetter. Trust me, it's better. Downward.

Isaac. And then Cardi B. I got money. I think that was right there. It's right there. It's right there. Isaac, you're not going to need us after this. Yeah.

It's probably hard to get it off Disney, though. That's probably true. Oh, the copyright. Yeah. Tough. We just do it offshore in Russia. We build you an offshore Russian production studio I like that

I like that Hey before we get too deep into it Do you do hack squats No I don't do a ton of leg stuff Where did that come from? I've just been really getting humbled Have you been you found your gym

And you've been in there By the way, Sean Jordan David Bory Yeah I'm your host here in Carmel Humbled on that hack squat machine What's a hack squat? Hack squat Jim Duggan it's just like a squat machine where it's like you're like angled back

but you're like the point of it is to go really really deep and I wasn't and I was like I'm nailing it and then I looked it up how you're supposed to do it and I was like oh you gotta go so I don't deeper I don't bend like that do you have a slant board I'm getting I got I got bend I got bend challenges is a slant board something that helps you like get more flexible yeah yeah yeah yeah It just opens everything up and then you, like, turn on it and do squats a little bit to get your knees going.

This might sound weird, but you know how immigrant squat? Yes. Do you? I do, because I squat like that. There's another term for it that I don't want to. It's not a bad term. Asian squat. That's what I was.

Is that what you're talking about? Yeah. Oh, because Eastern European do it too. Really? They also call it the Slob squat. So I'm just trying to put a Americans can't squat like this.

Yeah. I wish we could. Dude, I knew this kid in junior high school. He was in this gang called AP and he used to do it outside the movies and smoke cigarettes. He looks so fucking cool. That deep just heels on.

Sean, we're talking about that heels on the ground squat. Yeah, he would just be like down like that smoking a cigarette. I won't say his name, I guess, because he was a boy, but, like, he was feared. I genuinely think I might die. Like, I would, it would, I couldn't walk again if I did that. Have you ever tried to, like, rest at it? It seems so cool to rest like that.

I think it, I think people do. I think it looks like you can just sort of chill there and conserve your energy. I don't know, but you get. We're finding more unfiltered cigarettes. Where are they got to be down here somewhere? Thinking about popping up like a catcher. Every now and again, like I'll squat. for whatever reason, and I'll think, like, could I be a,

could I be a catcher? Could I pop up and throw it to second right now? Brother, it seems like the hardest thing. Thinking about dropping down like a catcher for a whole game? Yeah. That just seems, I know, for a whole game. For Lisa's wedding, Nick and I, we got caught slipping when they, like, they're walking down the aisle, and Nick and I are like, shit, and we didn't have chairs. So we had to squat for 20 minutes, and we were almost crying.

I mean, my whole face was white. I was sweaty. No, I don't have to talk to that. Huh? nobody took a knee no we I don't know why we were like really cramped for space but no we didn't take a knee

I think because we don't want to mess our pants up I don't know you didn't want to Lisa to think you were protesting or weddings yeah I'm here but I I don't approve it sucks

you get me in face only one of the coolest dudes oh sorry I've been sick for like a week the most annoying kind it's going around folks it's going around and then Langston just got sick too. Everybody's getting

sick. All the coolest people you know are getting sick. Sean, have you been sick? A couple weeks ago. I don't know. Maybe. What's recent? What's time, though? It's flat. Flat circle. That's what I did. Alien white came out.

Oh, no. That's what it is. Okay. Are you still plugged in? Do you need to stop? Do we need to stop down? I'm back. I'm back. I'm recording still. I'm back. How silly did you guys get with this? With what? With this list we're about to do? Yeah. Mine's actually sort of practical because I'm afraid of the world right now. I'm trying to go.

I'm trying to win this. So let me just explain to the listener what we're doing here. We are drafting predictions for the year 2026 and we are going to revisit our draft picks. Yeah. Next year around this time and see who got the most right. And that's cool. Hey, that's cool. Hey, that's a cool thing to do.

Now, we could, Sean, if you got really silly after each of these picks, what's going on? The sweet potatoes went nuts. Can you guys hear that? Yeah, I can't. The fire alarm's going off. We're prepping the sweet potatoes. I already took it down. It's over there.

Thank you. How I told you my sweet potato fact? What? If you let them cool all the way down, sweet potatoes, the, like, the glycemic chain in them for some reason changes. So, like, if you eat a sweet potato hot out of the oven, you'll get that, like, I just ate candy feeling. You know what I mean?

Where it's like this rush of sugar. But if you let them cool all the way down and then heat them back up, the sugar burns much slower, like when you eat an apple or something like that. So it turns, it's, like, better for you. So you should let a sweet potato cool all the way down and then heat it up to eat it. Well, I'm glad, brother, these are for the week. I didn't eat. Perfect.

This isn't even for tonight. These are, these, these are for money. That's, that's literally what we're doing right now. I got to do chicken and broccoli, too. I've been doing, I've been doing turkey, uh, turkey meatballs. Is that funny? Those are good. Funny?

Funny? I don't know. Not everything has to be funny. I learned a new fact about bears today. Okay, go on. Yeah. You don't let's not put the pressure on ourselves. They can remember sources of food.

So like, we were talking with a friend and she was saying that she heard bears in Yosemite. know what Trader Joe's bags look like because they can remember a good source of food so whatever it is they're like oh that bag I know that bag has dope shit in it so if they know what a Trader Joe's bag looks like they know what a Subaru looks like yeah oh no if they know what a Subaru looks like they know what a stepdad looks like uh-huh ifso facto vis-a-vis vis-a-vis there go cook therefore I can't think of I literally cannot think of a stepdad right now. Hey, I can only think of some dad who stepped up.

Do you guys remember anybody? I dropped that in Kazer casual conversation. I don't think it worked. What did you say? Have you guys, my little brother's up on shit I'm not up on? I guess the kids are saying, instead of low key, it's low Kirk catch, Kirk actually, low Kirk actually. Low Kirk actually.

Low Kirkatually? What? It's crazy. it's how do I spell You know one that I heard I heard Jit instead of legit kids are saying Jit

Jit Wait do you mean Jit means something else I think really In Florida that's what they call kids Jit The way that this dude's using it It sounds like it's short for legit

Does it mean something else God damn I'm watching No nothing bad I don't think anything bad Well no no I'm not I didn't think that either But I just am more upset That I don't know That I can't even figure out like

the tiniest bit of slang anymore. I heard they're done with 6-7. Yeah, that's out, dude. Oh, low-ker-kenually. Low-ker-kenually? What's in the hell? Does that mean? Low-ker-kenuantly.

Does that have anything to do with Charlie Kirk? That's exactly what it has to do with. Is it really? Yeah. It has to be. But what is it? My little brother's on a weird. Dude, I always, I always kind of prided myself on my algorithm being fucked.

And we went to Tokyo with that little freak, my man's, my man's getting sick. I don't know what his, he sends me shit. And I don't, I'm like, I have to be like in the brother's group chat. I have to be like, I don't know what this means. Like, because I used to try to pretend like I was cool. Now I'm like, I don't know what this means, man. No, the brain rot stuff, I was with my nieces and nephews around the holidays. I don't know.

I don't know what any of that stuff is. Nope. But like, my little brother's funny. so I'm like I'm sure this is I just don't have the touch tones our stuff was confusing to older people but I do think there was a logic chain that led you there okay so listen to this

that crazy loser you can understand lip biscuit yeah Mr. Burgundy you've got a massive erection it's not fucking here's what I think so loser came on today by Beck and that was the first song that I remember my mom being like

none of this makes any sense does the lyrics don't make any sense that and ha by juvenile where my mom was like what are you what are you doing but that's asking her to read ancient scrolls you might as well

that's you and the badass bans huh you can't keep old head because you're she's fucking your you're fucking her friends that makes sense you can't keep an old lady because you keep her on her friend yeah you got a lot of jabot jeans ah I think I feel compelled to tell you that I just started recording sorry what

I just started recording I forgot I apologize I'll just use the Zoom thank you And now I will go back. Your mom of all people should know what Jebo jeans are. Yeah, that's any of our mom. She knows they're expensive, I'll tell you that. But definitely your mom.

She knows they're expensive. She also didn't have to pay for all of them. I was stealing them. So I didn't like, I wasn't, I didn't want her to know what they were. Do you think you could dust it off in shoplift today? That's great. So wildly easy to do. I couldn't do it for karma.

Are you like an old jewel thief? Do you go into like J.C. Pennies now and King? the place. I think about it all the time, but I never would steal anything. But I think about it all the time. It'd be so easy to do. Have you ever just got something

close to the door and been like, no one's even looking? He's told the door is not the issue, man. That's close to the door is where the alarms are. He's telling Laura, like, I get that Webby jersey right out of here. You work at Best Buy. You know those alarms don't.

Those are nothing. Those are decoys, baby. Our alarms went off. No, you can't be stealing. They just couldn't touch them. Yeah, Best Buy. They had it. People were trying to steal from Best Buy.

well then the gap or whatever like those alarms weren't real back in the day there's no way all those were the best buy ones were maybe on maybe on maybe i get a little hot a second ago i apologize if i spoke out of turn that's all right that might be because they had real electronics and ip you're telling me if those alarms weren't on i don't think so i don't think so i remember kids i remember this one kid saying i don't know why i'm saying him i remember this one kid i guess he just would fold up pants and walk out oh adam used to dude i'll air him out he's out he's He would just go, he would even fold them up. He'd go grab him.

He'd just walk in, grab them, walk out. I mean, not a ton of time, probably a handful of times, 10 times, probably did that. That's a lot of gap jeans. He'd get them for us, and then we'd pay him like half the money. It was pretty rad.

You know, you can, now they do the thing where they won't stop you until you've reached a felony, right? Like, they have like facial recognition software. Oh, because that's how San Francisco's going so crazy, right? Right. So they're just like,

we're not going to arrest you until then and then at that point they'll like send you to prison is the idea right what we would do is we'd wear in a pair of pants and just leave them in the dressing room and then walk out with the other ones like we like the silver tabs i remember they have big ink things on them so that was always the big deal like you'd get them home and be like how do we get the ink thing off without wrecking the jeans did anyone steal one of those like magnet things because that's what you need no but my buddy Shane had one of those for for CDs so we'd go into disc jockey and uh cd's nuts it was it was nuts yeah cd's nuts it was like out of juice

like I'd go talk to the person and he would just go nuts pocketing CDs and we'd just dip it was sick I'm surprised you were with juice as opposed to high fidelity another movie where that happens Yeah but they don't really get away

with it in high fidelity They don't get away They get out of the shop They get out Oh easy I didn't think he starts a band for him right He watches it a week ago Yeah the Kinky Wizards

He starts a label for him I also could have told you the Kinky Wizards Because I watched it a week ago He starts a label for him Top 5 records Was any of that funny? Funny? So you were going to say

if I get real silly with a pick, which I don't think I'm going to do, but if I did, what were you going to? I was going to say we could rate these picks on like, if that comes true, how much credit do you get for it? I'm glad that I can't.

Then I think I, okay, I think that I kept my picks kind of fairly reasonable. Mine are pretty reasonable, too. I did not get too silly. I didn't. There's a couple, but maybe round four or five. I don't firmly believe in all of these. But there's a few I really do.

You'll get it. I got a couple pretty broad ones too. Really, really quick. Sean Jordan is here. Sean Cougarmel and Jordan on Instagram. Where can people see you? I believe February 20th and 21st, I'll be in Omaha, Nebraska with a one Kyle Canane. And then I'll be in New Orleans in March 19th, 20th and 21st with you find boys.

I just heard random names and it was like Langston. Oh, he's frozen again. I'm frozen again? Shit, man. Oh, no. He's frozen it in a really funny spot.

While we're talking real quick, I got to say thank you to everybody who came to that holiday in show in Portland. We sold out helium. I've never done that before. And I didn't have any help from Ian or Kyle being on the show.

That didn't help one bit. It was me and I sold the tickets with my face. I agree. I just, I was very overwhelmed. It was one of the best shows. I've ever been a part of I was so excited and happy so thank you for for showing up

oh he's frozen again I wish that word was gabber flasted if my fucking internet should we stop down for Ian Well, I'm back. I mean business. You got anything coming up, Ian?

No, I wanted to let people know that the pop culture draft for 2025 is still happening. We're just waiting until we're all in person. So that's going to be next week. Yeah. So that's still coming. We're just doing this one first. Over, I don't know if you can tell for my in and out of this, but over Zoom. Yeah, well, it's just the holidays.

It's tough around the holidays, scheduling and everything. We got a good chunk that we're going to be recording next week. Everything else will be back on it. And we'll stay on it. But yeah. And then that just comes to the Toled Donald Street Festival in New Orleans. Come see just an amazing lineup. That's truly it. I am so excited.

Not on Mother's Day this year. Lucky you. Boy, that's big. Lucky me. I mean, it was my first, it was Dana's first Mother's Day. That's what I'm saying. Like, as soon as I found out, I was a real serious, like, I will get up at six, but I don't know. Are you guys bringing the wives to this one?

Uh-uh. Ian's frozen again. It's so funny. He is not. He is. Yeah. I'm back now, but boy. Boy, is it annoying.

This is a treat for our YouTube viewers. Is Dana downloading Diablo four? Like, what is going on right now? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That would be crazy. That would be, I would fucking love it. If she was just in there, she had like a gaming computer. that I didn't know about.

Like neon all around it? Yeah, go do your, go to your podcast. She's got a ring light up. She's streaming Diablo 4. She's got a Diablo name. She's just twitched out. What? Well, now you're not paused.

But he's at a loss for words. I'm going to be right back. I'm back. I found out that Dana installed a internet extender. and I was not on that link and now I am. So fingers crossed, baby. I think we're good.

Yeah, the extenders. What's an extender? They just get it to the, yeah, to the far rooms of the house. Like, because our modem or whatever is on in the east wing, like deep in the east wing. And so if I'm in Max's room, I don't get good internet.

Are you in the West Wing? Well, I'm in, we record, I record in the East Wing. So I sleep in the West Wing and. Business and pleasure. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Flame Boy and Wet Willey

To force that in again Boy Was that no funny? Maybe it got me The yin and yang It's funny How old was you When you found out

It wasn't ying yang Yes When it was yin I think I had to learn That lesson a lot Yeah I think so too I think that lesson Had to be learned

Several times It should be Ying and Yang Because if there are two corresponding parts You know what else It should be Orangatang

Not orangutan That is infuriating. Oh, orangutan. It's an orangutan. Go tell Borneo, dude. Why are you telling us? I don't know what it is, man, but orangutans fucking freak me out. Yeah, I don't like it.

When I see them in real life, it's something about it is really unsettling to me. What if? What if the natural distrust of- That's not what it is. It's not good. That's no one. They have hairy boobs. You know that freaks you out.

What if that's where the natural distrust of redheads comes from? Oh, from a ragged. Hold on, hold on. It's a redhead in the house. That's right. She did great. I'm not supposed to trust her. No.

She knows everything about me. Yeah. You fucked up. You got to start a new life. You got a burn bag, right? Or you got to invent some new stuff. She knows where it is. You got to do some new stuff she doesn't know about it.

She probably filled it up with. fake newspapers or something. I can't. Oh, man. We're drafting predictions for 2026. And then we're going to revisit these next year. Now, the way we determine the order of this draft is through a rollicking game of rock paper scissors play between the two of you.

We throw and shoot. All right? Here we go. Rock paper, scissors, shoot. Scissors against paper. Sean wins. I don't know what David is for you, but he's down here for me. uh he's he's over what it's not germane to the podcast he uh shan as the winner of rock paper

says it is incumbent upon you to determine the order of today's draft before you do that i will remind you it as a serpentine draft and what is that that's a great question uh it's like making a kamikaze at a soda machine you call them kamikazis suicide kamikaze suicide midnights midnights you called the midnights i shouldn't i didn't even think about the uh the connotation of kamikaze until now I guess that's kind of rude, but because it's called a suicide. So it's like a suicide. Oh, I wonder if that is related. That it got to be.

Well, anyway, we called him, now that I think about it, though, we call them suicides more than that. But, yeah, anyway, you know, back and forth. What was the last time you did that? I called him the Italian wife. The Italian wife's lament. That's what I call it when I do. Character. You guys got a-not-knocked.

That was a crazy start. That was a crazy start to it. You guys got to be what? When was the last time you got it? I'm not done about how crazy that impression was about to be. Isaac leaving it. Isaac doubled up, add some base. Isaac, we put the Simpsons theme after it.

Do we have the copyright for that? Maybe not. No, for three seconds. Yeah, all right. No, Ian knows Magraining. He walked up to him one time and told him he did Conan. I did not. I did not tell him that.

I thought you did. It came up later in the conversation, but I didn't walk up and say I did Conan. Sorry if I let anyone to believe that. That would be crazy. What's up, man? I did Conan. You're McGrannic. I did Conan.

You're not special. We're both on TV. I'm actually on TV. he was at a restaurant and my date went up and like uh made sure it was mac running and then told them she was on a date with a comedian and she was he wants to meet you is where i went over god that must have been a terrible walk though nerve-wracking yeah i had a couple glass of wine by that point but it was so nerve-wracking he was there with maggie his sister oh crazy that's crazy yeah um i'm sorry i'm coughing i like i am

coughing so much during this episode. So either, one of two things has to happen. Either you didn't know that and Isaac has done an amazing job. Or Isaac has passed the savings on to you, the listener. Or Isaac did an amazing job and you do know that. You really do. Go through a mute every single time you guys cough or clear your throats. I know you do.

You're truly amazing. Yeah, you really got this. I try to move the mic away. Does it work? You do do that. Does that help? Should I do that? It does.

It does help if you do it. Okay. Sorry, I haven't been doing it. I'm going first. Sean's a winner. You're going first? Got your loose mic out now. And then David and then you.

John David Ian. Just the boys on this one. Just the boys. Just the boys. The lads. We were talking about drafting. Fucking sweet potatoes, I swear to God. They go, because they take forever.

He's looking in the mirror. You can look at the cat. when they burn they spurt out that sugar and then like the fucking the heat is on do I need to try sweet potatoes like my Friday night I was going to spread that sugar do I need to try them again it's been a long time I didn't like them last time but I don't know what's not to like about a sweet potato they're talking talking 30 years ago I'm not talking about candy jams I'm just talking about medallions.

Oh, wait, no, I'm blime. I'm out of my mind. I've tried sweet potato fries and tots tons of times. I'm out of my mind. I don't like it. Yeah, it's a flavor grenade. I love it. And now that I know it's super food. And I can make a shitload of it on a

Sunday night. And it just keeps. Oh, that's great. I'm going to be eating a lot of sweet potatoes and chicken this week. Yeah. It's so good for you. We'll throw a little broccoli in there. Brother? What do you think? The other food on prepping is. I can't. We're on, we're walking the same path

this week. Also, I've been making a lot of friends at the deli counter lately. Have you? Are you getting nice? Slice deli meat? I'm not friends, but I'm striking up conversations. It's a certain type. It's a certain type of dude up there getting some sliced deli meat. You know what I'm talking about. I do it. You got to get sliced. You got to get fresh deli meat.

Welcome back to All-Fandis, everything already in progress. We're drafting prediction. Arthur Carmel still asleep. Arthur Carmel still asleep.

Nailed it. Uninterrupted. Prediction of the 2026. Sean, your first pick. I think that we are going to get a Mountain Dew-flavored Dorito and a Dorito-flavored Mountain Dew. Wow. We just society as a whole.

That's what we're getting. So if you want to take the silliness out, I think we're going to get some sort of Mountain Dew-flavored Dorito. I think a Dorito-flavored Mountain Dew much harder to get done. I don't know. They got the Flamen Chito Mountain Dew. They do, which... I think if we're getting to make a minute...

Mountain Dew flavor Dorito. We're getting the Dorito flavor Mountain Dew. They're just I mean they're doing the dance. I think this is kind of a perfect pick. They're bouncing on their and I'm ashamed of my first. Yeah. The flavors are going nuts and it's been happening for the last three, four years

they're doing everything. They're finally open in the vault and to me it's just like a natural pairing. I don't know why they haven't done it yet, honestly. I think it's the most unnatural pairing. Well yeah they give a rip about that. And do you want to sell them Mountain Dew? I'll buy them. First, I'll be the first customer.

Mountain Dew Doritos. There are two animals that live in the same jungle, but they shouldn't be friends. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You don't think they shouldn't, you don't think they should be? Doritos are Mountain Dew? They're friends already. They're just not the same. They just haven't had sex. They're working towards it. They hang out all the time.

Oh, and we all see them after work and we're like, damn, all the time. They're always together. And Mountain Dew's like, yeah, I don't know. Whatever. You know, we're going. Doritos is like, I would. I just Mountain Dews never really brought it up. It's that when Harry met Yellow 5 situations. Was that the food coloring that kills your sperm?

I thought it was supposed to make you little. Nothing kills mine, bro. Yellow 5, dude. Or Yellow 5 does, yeah. Yellow 5? That was the rumor. Was it? I never heard that like drinking Mountain Dew killed your sperm?

Or there was something in it. I'm not on sperm reddit. Ian's on sperm Reddit more than I am. I am on our sperm. dude. I'm like a top 1% poster on our sperm. Not our sperm. Different Reddit. Different Reddit. Different Reddit. Not our hour sperm. This is our sperm. Our sperm is a norley reddit. Our sperm is like all ages, family friendly. If you have questions about sperm, you can come ask them there. I'm going to look up if there actually is a sperm reddit. There must be our sperm, dude. Isaac. Just go click over one with no. You're banned from our sperm? It's banned. No. Not for what you think. The subreddit itself is banned. They actually predicted Venezuela.

They knew. Our sperm was, it's been talking about. It's a smoke screen. Our sperm is not about sperm at all. Not at all. They knew three days beforehand. Oh, my God. Yeah, I could see, I could see a bag of Doritos.

Tell me you couldn't see it. A green bag of Doritos. Oh, yeah. A mountain dew logo on it. No, I think you're right. I think you're right there. To the point where has this happened already? Did you look?

I didn't look, but I, I bet there's been meetings. I bet you somebody would have hit me up if it did. I don't think there's been a Mountain Dew Dorito. Mountain Dew Ritos? They're going to be Doritos. Come on. Dueritos. It's another one of those ideas that we're just given away.

Wait. Yes, these exist. Mountain Dew flavored Doritos, duitos. What? Primarily in Australia, but they've existed in limited release. Really? Can I still pick it? I can't pick it.

I can't pick it. No, you can pick the other one. No, no, no, I mean, I'm just looking at it. Yeah. They're Dorito affiliate. They're Doritos. They're not like. Mountain Dew flavor test marketed in due after dark campaign program from October to November 2014.

So are they like purple? They're green, dude. Well, then I'm, I'm looking at, I'm looking at Mountain Dew, Mountain Dew, so they've both been done. What? Yeah. There's been a Mountain Dew. There's been a Dorito flavored Mountain Dew. Is that right?

Yeah. Yes. Yes, there has, yeah. I know there's Australians that listen to this show. Where were you when that happened? I don't think you're mad at the Australians. Well, I would have liked some information. I got other stuff I can pick, but do weidos?

Yeah, look. Wow. Shit. Okay, mythical kitchen made Dorito flavored Mountain Dew as well. So somebody, I don't know if that's. No, that's not official. No, no, no, no. Hold on, let me give you my link.

I've done my own research. There is somebody, there was somebody listening to this who is screaming at their phone. They exist. It exists. And they are like laying there, smoking a cigarette, like they just had sex right now, the fact that we called it out. Oh, yeah, no, that's the same one I was looking at, yeah. Dang, so, all right, so I can't pick it? No.

I think you can pick Dorito Flavor Mountain Dew, or no, no. I think we're going to have to wipe it. Oh, there's Dorito Flavored Mountain, dude. That's the one I'm looking at. You lost a pick, but you gained the knowledge that you live in a world full of creative people. As long as we got to chop it up about it, that's all I want. Yeah. So then I think the, so I got to make a pick, right?

That's right. I think you're going to be able to watch things on the windshield of a Waymo this year. Oh, that's a really good one too. I don't think that, I don't think you're going to be able to black it out, but I think you're going to be able to watch stuff. selectively on this guy i don't know what it's going to look like you can't just be in a car where you don't see where you're going but some version of that you said silly picks but this is this is this sounds like something that would be in a mission impossible movie dude it's like minority report so much of that stuff where you're like well it's getting there like when they're kidnapping

someone they would put footage on the windshield where it looks like they're driving to that actual destination but the whole time they're going into a garage where Ethan hunt is waiting with Forrest Whitaker. It would, what would I, what would you watch? Not Forrest Whitaker. Forrest Whitaker. Who's in the Mission of Possible movies? Ving Rames.

Forrest Whitaker don't go in the Mission of Possible. Hold on. I think he can pull it off. I think he's a fantastic actor. Forrest Whitaker would be great in the Mission of Possible movie. Kind of anything. We have not gotten enough Forrest Whitaker. No, he was in Fast Times at Ridgemont High and the last King of Scotland.

Yeah. Who has that range? Just him. And he was. And maybe Sean Penn. he was ghost dog he was in bloodsport he's in star wars now i just think we i i think in ten different realities i've never seen force whittaker has a bigger career in in the other nine what thing that happens your gun is digging into my hip yeah i think uh you know what would you

put on you're leaving you've had you've had eight i'm not getting in away my dude i'm gonna get one in one next week yeah Yeah, I probably have been in so many. I'm nervous. Was it nervous the first time? Was it nerve-wracking? Well, you got to be with your buddy. I was with David, so it was fun.

The first time I did it, but it's also so much cheaper. Oh, right, right, right. It cheaper. For now. For now. Well, they're only in that quadrant of L.A. Like, I don't know. I've never seen them.

I guess I got them in San Francisco, too, but I've never seen them anywhere outside that quadrant. They got some in Denver. I think they have them in. They're probably in like Dallas, too. I think Dawson has them. Atlanta. Bismarck. I mean, that's where it's going, right?

Tesla's got the, you can just do the upload for driverless. Yeah. Like, that's where they're trying to go for everything. I don't love it. Even though I know it will be better. Artie and Max, I bet, don't have to learn how to drive. Artie knows. Artie already knows how to drive.

Stick. Stick, dude. Artie has an 83 Camaro. Slaps you. I don't know where he got it. It just showed up one day and he was out there. We went over to a buddy's house tonight, a little playday with Max,

and I had to explain to one of Max's friends' parents that I honestly think that I'm one of the best drivers on the planet. How did this come up? She thought I was, because I backed into it. Oh, gosh. Did I not tell you guys this yet? This sucks.

This sucks. I told you in the thread. Damn, this sucks. All right. Nobody died. It's fine. But I, so, I was driving Laura's car.

We were on a date. and I was in a parallel park. And I backed into a tree and broke her tail light. I remember my first date. I was fuming. Like, we stopped and she's like, what happened? I was like, I don't fucking.

And I'd get out of the car and I was like, goddamn trees out here jutting into the road. Like, I didn't back into it. And I've never fixed anything quicker in my whole life. Like the next morning I was up. Yeah, yeah, you did tell us this. I was up in the morning at AutoZone.

Like, let me get a taillight. I came home and it fixed. Because as soon as I fixed it, to me, it didn't happen. Now it did. It did. And do you think that parking is cuddled off from driving? No. I think they're all, I think the driving I'm talking about is like every facet of it.

Parking. So finding a spot, changing lanes, merging, reading the traffic. Isaac, could you broken one of your taillights in the last year? No. No, me neither. It was Laura's. I drive a lot. You ripped your bumper off somehow.

Come at me. You can't even drive a stick. I ripped my bumper off because I lived in Glendale, dude. You just got mad one day. I jumped out of my car and pulled the bumper off and said, goddamn gladiator school. If I'll do this to my car, if I do this to my car,

what do you think I'll do to your white BMW, brother? The first day in Glendale, he just went out to the middle of the street and ripped his own bumper off. I laid out on the horn for about a minute, a stray minute, and then I ripped the bumper off and, front of everybody. It's like the original bad boys when Sean Penn took the pillowcase full

of sodas to the guy. It's exactly like that. You didn't have to qualify it. Damn it. Isaac cut it out. Back to the old bits. We're doing that. I'm Jewish. Old bits. 100%. Remits and everything.

No one didn't work. Yeah. You could stuff on the screen. Let's just gloss over. Listen, I could admit when I did something wrong and I backed into a tree and I broke her tail light. Jordan missed a great free throws, you know? It It happens. Doesn't mean I'm not up there with the best still. I do think it does.

David, it was, I wish I'm going to show you the tree. I'll take you and show you the tree. Why do we want to see the tree? Because there's a knot. I'll go take a photo of it. There's a knot that goes out into the road that you can't see because it's dark. And that's why nobody was parked there. I don't know the neighborhood like that.

That's not part of driving. I don't need to know the neighborhood. I don't need to know the foliage, you know? I think a good level. spatial awareness or in your vehicle. I think bad drivers call a vehicle.

No, vehicle? Good drivers call a vehicle. I thought professionals call it vehicle. Yeah, good drivers call it a whip. Okay. All right. It's just interesting.

Hit us up in the comments if you think this knocks Sean down a couple percentage points. Like and smash first. But yeah, go ahead and comment. Go ahead and stir that pot. You know, stir my Kool-Aid a little bit.

David, your first pick. I think that Ian's going to get mildly short. treaded. Oh. This is fun. I am. Come on.

Pay me my money. We should put some money on these. My goal, I haven't written down. I told Dana and I told our friend Katie, who was over here on New Year's Eve, I said, my goal this year is to get into the best shape of my life. You already hit us.

You were talking about going to the gym six days a week two records ago. Yeah. And that I was like, yeah. I was starting before, before the holidays, I was like kind of starting to. I had like back definition and like all that shit. It's happening. I'm getting shredded this year. Let's go, baby.

And I'm going to look at pictures of myself on the front of the Waymo. You're just going through your own Instagram. Look at this. Look at what I did. Look at that. And then Rand and Stimpy sometimes because it's silly. Yeah, it's so funny. No, that's good, man.

That's awesome. I like that for you. I wonder if I'm going to have to get it. into like protein amounts and stuff if it's going to happen. I think you just do 0.7 for pound. You're going to spell it W-H-E-Y-M-O. Do you not take

protein now? Is that how you spell weight protein? Quaymo. Oh. Very nice. I like that. Yeah. Do you not take it, do you not do it now? No, I eat a lot of like chicken breast and stuff and like in ground turkey, but I haven't been like doing the mix. You got to work out for that to do something, right? You can't just

start taking like way protein and then just not be working out there's nothing beneficial no no you can you can you can you should you can and should just a bunch of it dude what about like creatine you should take that too Sean you should just do a let's do a test let's do a test I'll work out and take it and you eat a bunch of work just take it let's just say oh dude I'm gonna get new genics I'm getting newgenics I saw so many new genics commercials last night it's uh if you want a big ass head like me dug flutie and whoever i'm up at like three in the morning in seattle last night watch and there was like 50 new genics commercials and each one of them had a different code and a different word so it'd be like text solid to 321 321 and then minutes

later it'd be like text rip to 526 526 show us your text yeah yeah yeah show your inbox i was this close to be in like, I just, I picture getting eugenics and your lightning, like lightning hits your mailbox or something. You're like, Flutie's taking it, huh? Yeah, do. Hey, Lori, Doug Flutty takes him and Fran Tarkenton. You know the guys I want to look like. How's my trophy winner, Doug Flutie? Oh, you legend.

Yeah, I'm going to try to get mildly shredded. I'm already in, come on. It's great, yeah. Number one already happened. All I can do is let both of us down, but I'm working on it. I promise you that I'm working on it. You'll let me down, too. well let you do well you will if you don't get shredded then yeah you'll let me down

Dana'll be let down Dana's fine Dana's not in love with this or this dude Dana's in love this bro you got big yeah the eyebrows the eyebrow I got yeah there yeah Arthur has big hands too you know what that means fucking wide a joke I'll complete on it the day becomes a man big gloves gloves

I have a lot of big stuff my first pick I got some I got some heaters on here my first pick I'm going to go with and then I'm going to go with and then I'm

to move on to my second pick immediately after this. You don't want to explain it? I don't want to get too much into it. All I'm going to say is he dies. Okay. No, no, no, no, no. You got to. He dies.

You don't know what I mean. You're not supposed to. I'm not going to say it. No, no. Paulo Creed. Paulo Creed, dude. Yeah. And I don't know why I think that.

I just think tensions are getting higher. I don't I don't even know if it's a good thing because it might help the next guy down the latter Who's to say? Who's to say? Or girl.

Or girl. Could be that dog shooting lunatic. Who knows? Who's to say? We don't even know what any of us are talking about. There's literally a chain of command. Yeah, Apollo Creed's wife

shot their dog. So that's what I'm talking about. That's what we're talking. So moving out of my second pick, my first pick, he dies. Who could he beat? That could be any number. of people.

Okay, I need, dude, so many. I'm not hoping for it. No. I'm not, certainly not. Anything. That's just a prediction for the year. Based on nothing. The views expressed by Ian Carmel in no way

reflect. Just, just the views of my uncle Steve. Just a prediction. Number two, skinny jeans are back. Oh, don't do me like that. Dude, I just got my big jeans. Sean just bought four pairs of big jeans.

I just got my big pants. Yeah. I just got my big pants. Low-rise jeans are back, though. I feel like big things are standing for dudes. Yeah, low-rise baggies. I'm dressed like Janet Jackson in the Escapade video. No, I think skinny is for girls.

You think skinny's for guys? I think skinny pants are coming back. I think we have hit maximum big. We haven't hit big back for that long, though. I think, but I think things move faster. Well, you got to think, though, you got to also got to think you got to subtract your age. So think about how long it took for big to get to you. Yeah.

Yeah. Versus what people in, like, New York are doing. Yeah. True. Yeah. I think we see some small pants this year, dude. Like the fact that they got big in Old Navy. I got my big pants at the gap.

I'm not going back. Are you going back? I'm not going back. I went really big and what I've realized is maybe that's not for me maybe really big is not for me I didn't go Jinko big but I got some pretty big pants

and I think like a mid pant I think I'm a midpantsman I'll go back to mid the lowest I'll go or Levi is 541's 34 34 34 then those are still kind of big on me 34 34 34 are you a 34 in seam guy 34 36 only if he's Only if he's seven, eight. Yeah, 33, 32 is normally what I do, but like I've been going 34 just to force it.

No, no, 34, 32 is what I've been doing. 32 length? I got to find 28. It's a nightmare. Yeah, I'm a 30 and they're like, I got, I'm all torso, dude. What's the length you're on? Isaac? 30.

Same as, same as he. Really? yeah yeah you guys are 30s yeah man when i was it when i was in eighth grade i was like 30 i had a 38 cross color size 38 they didn't even say what length it was just like 30 30 they were just size 38 they just says size 38 they didn't have link there any of that that's probably italian sizes if it's chinkos they were it was cross colors cross colors my bad yeah they were huge i'm down i'm hovering in the 36 to 38 inch waist line right now and once i get shredded dude, that's going to drop off a cliff.

You're just going to have to make sure you protect your mental. Absolutely. And living a shredded life out there? Yeah. I want to go back to skinny jeans, dude. Sean, you never went to skinny jeans. Yeah, what are you talking about? But even the thought that I could, the thought that it was out there bugged me. I don't want to do it. It's out there still.

You go get some skinny jeans on you. You should leave the charge. Oh, maybe you get ahead of the curve. No, I just got my big pants. I can't turn them into my tiny pants. You're saying I take my big pants in. Take my big pants in and be like, You're going to have to get new pants. Can you make these into two pairs of dumb pants, please?

Is that how you think pants work? Hey, these are big. Make them into two stupid pairs of tiniies. Can you give me some small pants, please. Anyway, I think skinny jeans are coming. I think big pants, they got too big. This is the reality of pants for all time. And it's just been getting faster and faster and faster and

faster. Yeah. They go big, they get small. They go big, they get small. It is really all that they can do. There's not a lot of moves.

That's it. Yeah, pants. Mm-hmm. That's all they can do. When the chance were happening, like Ella was doing one leg, but like in the skate world, it was people pulling them up

to like just under their knees. I thought it looked really cool. Yeah, I still think it looks cool. It did on the right people. I see clips of LL Cool J on that show in the house, his little sitcom,

he looked awesome. Yeah, he did. He did. But he also wear a sweat vest. and made that look cool, and I would not look cool. I would look like... I saw a picture of gnaz the other day with it, too. I would try it.

I think you'd look good with one leg pulled up. Or are you talking about a sweat vest? No, one leg pulled up. Yeah. Oh, my buddy Nick used to have... We had these parachute cargoes from the gap, and they had drawstrings around the... Wait. Say that again?

The, like, parachute pant cargos. You know, the swooshy pants? I think I'm thinking of a difference. I'm thinking of MC Hammer Pants. with cargo pockets that can't be... No, no, these are like... I'm thinking of Operation Dumbow drop. These are like workup or like,

like swooshy pants, you know? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. All like warm-ups. Yeah, like warm-ups, but with cargo pockets and they had strings around the ankles so you could pull them up and cinch them if you wanted to. Yeah.

We tried. Yeah. Do you have a time for your second pick? Second pick. I predict Sean is going to read two books this calendar year. I have a prediction. later. Okay. I, can I, I, I don't, I'm not a resolution guy. Can I tell you my resolution?

Yeah. I have, that I have stuck to so far is a chapter a day. So, yeah. Go on. What books? I'm three chapters into top five right now, which is that high fidelity book. And then once a part of time of Mexico is going to be next. So, David, thank you. I fully plan on it. I think, I think, I think, I think I'm going to, I think this year is going to be the year I read the most dope books. It's our, it's already been, I bought, that was up till two. reading yesterday. I was up to 1.30 last night.

My man. What are you reading? I was reading Elaine Brown A Taste of Power because I just finished the idiot and I wanted to have

a couple days before I started crime and crime and punishment. Yeah, you got to mix something in there. Yeah. I'm reading the tapping the source by Kim Nunn.

Referenced in Entourage, Sean, you may remember. Like that. It's a loose, it's a loosely, very, very, very loosely, it turns out, adapted point break from it.

It's great, though. Whoa. Staying up late, reading while your wife is sleeping makes you feel powerful. Yeah, absolutely. It does make you feel like you did something. You're like, I will protect this house. Yeah, really? I will intake knowledge and I will protect this home.

Got to stay up until the Tokyo market's open. Yeah, that's how you feel, you know. The dogs make a noise. I'm like, don't worry. I shall protect you. I am gaining knowledge. David, you're coming to bed. They're just waking up in Beijing.

No, we were in bed. She was just asleep. Because I got a book light for Christmas, but she got me a book light for Christmas, but I wasn't using it. I just had the light on. But you just feel so much. It's like you feel really like a grown man. You hear a noise and you just put the book down and stare at the door for a minute. Grab the gun.

Uh-huh. You just. I'm actually, I have both of them in the bed. I have the book in the gun. Your call. How do you want to handle this? What kind of night? What kind of night you want?

I think two ways. Both of these things can educate you. I only deal with two types of justice. The Beretta or Sideway Stories from Wayside School. It's your call, my friend. Sometimes I read the gun. Sometimes the gun reads me. That's dope.

Two books for Sean. All right. All right. I think it's, I think it's, I think it's like, because it's like over 12 months, that's not nuts. Even if you read a chapter, a chapter a day is, chapter a day is going to be a bunch of books. Yeah. I mean, that would be like, absolutely. I don't know, 20.

Who knows? But that's, thank you. That's the goal. And I've told myself. It wasn't more of a compliment. I'm just trying to win. I appreciate it. Now I just out of spite.

I'm like, Laura, I can't read any books this year. I don't want David to win this draft. So is Laura? bought into this book thing? It's, well, you were there when I told, I told you and Dana and Laurel at the same time in the coffee shop and everyone was like, yeah, I don't see why that's not reasonable. It's a small goal, a chapter. It was funny because earlier that week, Dana had told me she read 40, like, 43 books that

in 20, Jesus Christ. And I'm like, Sean's like, I'm going to try to read two. But she was so encouraging. She was like, well, that's good. 43 in one year she has other jobs than a son she has so many jobs and the first year as a mom 43 books knocked them out i don't does she speed read uh no me i bet she reads faster than we do yeah yeah but not like i am remembering i am remembering about just the using the more it is like i'm i'm so much faster now reading the idiot really helped me out like I'm bad man that's a hefty that's a hefty

tom yeah because then you're like oh I can do that yeah cool cool cool I got to 22 last year that's and I'm at three this year already but they were you read books no I'm at two I'm at two I'm on my third I'm on my third but they were tiny tiny books but either way Sean's getting two this year I can see it easy I'll let you know what it happens I was sitting and I've been sick so I'm going to say that it's not impressive I've watched Entourage so many times There's number two for the year right here

That's really cool Yeah, Lana got it for him for Christmas He's holding up crime and punishment For the listener It's got like a crazy cartoon on it That's what it looks like huh It's like the guy who did the Adams family illustrations almost

I forget that guy's like he had Adams That's his name Oh really? It's like he had a blood gun coming out of his butt That's what the book's about That's what it looked like Spoiler alert Well you don't know going in

You know that But you find out by the end Whether that was the crime Or the punishment It's got to be illegal They tell you what happens Sean Talk for your second and third picks

I think that Doomsday Is going to break every box office record That there's been Oh is this like for an opening weekend Yeah this is where Downey Jr comes back as Dr. Doom and which is crazy that he's just bringing him back

as a completely different character. It's different timeline though. I just, yeah, but he's still Robert Downey Jr. That's what I'm saying. And Thor's in it. Everyone's in it. As far as I know, they're all in. Isn't Thor always in it?

Yeah. I think so. I think he's like there was a new trailer that dropped that set. It was like just Thor. It's like Thor's in it. But I assumed he was. But everyone's going to be in it.

And to me it seems like it's going to break any opening weekend record there's ever been. The highest grossing movie of all time is the first avatar. And it made nearly $3 billion. It made $2.9 billion. In the opening weekend? No, no, no.

I'm talking opening weekend. But I also think, I think it could do. Aquaman was the biggest, the Vinny Chase vehicle. That's right. He beat Spider-Man. That Aquaman Jason Moa movie, man, that movie sucks. Yeah.

Oh, God, what a piece of shit. I remember I was so hyped, too, because I'm like, finally. Finally, because they talked about an entourage, and I'm like, why don't they just do it? What's stopping them for making Aquaman? A good script, apparently. A bit spin, Mamoa. Holy fucking sucks so bad. The highest grossing weekend, opening weekend ever was Avengers Endgame, which made $357,000, a million.

Gotcha. What year was that? 2019. Yeah, and that was the last one. Do we think the franchises have it cooled off a little bit? Are they still onward and upward? I think this one will. I think this one will because I think they have cooled off.

I think like the Thor, the last Thor I didn't think did great. The last Dr. Strange, I don't think was great. So I think this one's going to be like an actual blockbuster, like a summer blockbuster-ass movie. How many movies are in the MCU? Is it?

Does anybody know? Let me take you guess. I'm going to say, I'm going to say, 40 something. I was going to say like 36. I just, you looked it up, exact number.

Yeah, but it's not an exact number. Hold on. Because there's not, you know, there's the, they pulled Spider-Man in. We were just talking about this because he's D.C.,

but they pulled him in. So now for some reason he's Marvel. So. No, Spider-Man's Marvel. 37. Really? I thought he was, what?

37? I said 37. Nice. He was owned by, the film rights were owned by Sony. that's why they weren't in the Avengers Universe movie. Oh, I got you.

He was never D.C. Somebody was made. Somebody probably bought Sony or Disney or whatever. Something happened and now he's in it. Disney bought Sony. Sooner, within the next 10 years, there's only going to be four companies to remember anyways. It's going to make it easier to pitch

because you're just one guy telling you know now. Well, is it because only three of us will be allowed to pitch in the entire industry? Yeah. You go to the building, talk to the man. hear the no and then go home all right thank you so yeah doomsday I think and then number three

I think that our girl Taylor gets pregnant oh oh has she been married yet is that allowed she's not married yet no I don't even know if they plan I just think yeah they're engaged progressive yeah but they're not married like I I don't think I think people can have a kid

before they're married that in the I don't know how progressive of you modern man just because we did that's awesome that's awesome yeah I read that in a book the other day

I read that that's okay to do he's written the good book first yeah that's a lot of chapters I'm gonna read a chapter a day of the Bible that would suck I wouldn't have a good time

I read the Bible it sucked when I read it especially there's whole like there's whole books that are just like names being recited and stuff yeah I don't Iceman, how many times

have you deadlifted the Bible? About seven, like the whole thing? About seven times. Yeah. It was most of my childhood, too. Yeah. How many times the Quran? None.

Zero. Classic. No Quran. Wild. I'm Islamophobic famously. Is it Bhagavagita? Bhagavad Gita? Is that?

Baga, what is that? In the, in the, in the garden of Baghdad. In the garden of Bagahedda. We lost David. Is that the... The Bhagavad Gita? What is that? Rather than me ask a question

and have it sound racist, what is that? It's about the warrior poet, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the... What's the book that I see a Jewish person reading from, like, with the magnifying glass, the little glass thing?

The Torah? Oh, the Torah. Yeah, sorry. I could not remember the name the Torah. That's all right. It's not the Bhagavad Gita. That's different. That's like an Indian religious thing.

text, I think. What's the difference between the Torah and the Old Testament? The Torah is only the first five books, right? It's only the first five. So the Tanak is the Old Testament. Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy. That's the Torah. I cannot believe that one of them is Deuteronomy.

It's awesome. I don't think it's so awesome. Is there stuff in the Old Testament after the Torah? Yeah, so it's the Tanakhs. So it's the Nevi-im and then the Ketuvim. So it's the scrolls and the prophets. The writings and the prophets. 20 bucks first corinthians

this is irrelevant for anybody everybody's having a good time yeah yeah I think Taylor gets pregnant interesting yeah

do you think it's it's Travis's or do you think it's a huge cheap I think it's Travis Scott's oh great what if it's jasons now that's an album that's gonna be coming out

that one would hit Travis might have to make an album if it's Jasons his album would suck. Wait, that would suck so bad. A lot of songs about being a tight end. Weirdly, a lot of features.

Lots of features. I don't know how he got YG on it. Being rich isn't all that's cracked up to be. What? I miss my earrings. Did he lose the earrings? I don't know. I've been wanting those to go for a minute. Did you like life of a show girl? I loved it. I think it's great. There are some bangers on there. Opelite's amazing.

Father figure's fantastic. I liked the last song The Life of a Showgirl with Sabrina Carpenter I think that one's awesome Yeah I like it a lot Nice I also enjoyed it Come of me like that

I was asking you I was getting your opinion I know I was trying to be I know I was kidding I don't think you're a dickhead Never have Now the way you said that man It sounded like you do think of a dickhead

You have for a long time Well I was like why did you sit all back in your chair That was you heard it too The way yeah The way you said it was pretty suspicious Yeah No I don't think I don't think I never thought you're a dickhead

Whatever let's go no you're not you're not you're not a you're not a dickhead fine let's go fine fine is that we're just getting pulled over i said you're not a dickhead now stop there's a cop behind us hello officer my dickhead friend won't shut up david your second or your third pick uh they just clinched today i think the denver broncos will win the super bowl wow who's who's doing good. Seahawks doing good.

They just clinched. They just clinched today, so they have a first round week by and then home field advantage. Okay. It's wide open. Who would be the competition? Like the Seahawks and who's, Ravens doing,

the Ravens are not doing good. No, the Ravens are not doing good. The Rams, the Niners are both good. Like, uh, weirdies just lost to the Seahawks. The bears are going to be in the playoffs.

The Packers, the Bills. The Jaguars. The Jaguires. The Jaguaz Man, that'd be sick Good But none of those teams Won the AFC

What would it take for you To go to the Super Bowl If Denver's in it 5,000 dollars Because it's in Santa Clarita, right? Yeah No, Santa Clara Santa Clara

Sorry, where is that? In the Bay, right? That's up there. Would you go? Is it, is it Levi's? Yes, it is. Man, I don't know how much it costs

to go to the Super Bowl. Everybody I've ever known has gone like in the way the Ian's gone where it was like for work or some shit. I don't know. I feel like it costs a lot of money to buy tickets to the Super Bowl. And the Olympics is coming. That's where I want to kind of put all my sports eggs in the basket.

Same. I can't wait for that. But I don't know. I don't think I would go. I don't know. It'd be rough to go if they lost. Can I do it for a stack? I don't think so.

Like a thousand dollars a, yeah, probably. Maybe, I don't think so. I wonder if like an hour before the game, it costs that much if people are like, because there's so many of the people of the Super Bowl are there like four work reasons or got free tickets from a company kind of thing. And I wonder if they do go up like last minute. Now, they can't all be sold out the day, right? I don't know.

I don't know how that works. Some people can't make it to the Super Bowl. Yeah. Oh, give an eye on it. Watch the space. Yeah. Yeah. If any Super Bowl fans listen.

It looks like they started $6,738. How fair that is. That's fun. That's fun. With my third pick. Oh, wait, do you believe in Bonax, Oregon quarterback, now Denver Broncos quarterback Bonax? I believe in Denver Broncos quarterback Bonax.

I see what you're trying to do here. He went to Oregon. He did. And now he's playing in a Super Bowl from, the Broncos. Valuable experience leaving the Oregon Ducks. You know, these days they say it's more of just like he didn't really need to go.

Invaluble, they might say. He didn't really go to Oregon. You mostly went to Auburn. Yeah. But yeah, I don't know. I think it's as good of a pick of coming into the play. You know what I mean? I think it's as good as a pick as anything. They won the AFC, absolutely. That's what I'm saying.

I think I might be three for three right now. I think Sean might be the one that lets you down. He's doing that. He's doing that to get to you. He's doing the auction drafts. I am predicting with my number third, my third pick that Sean reads zero books this year, and this is a tandem pick and doesn't watch Roman J Israel Esquire. I think he's 0 for two on those.

He's got him to both. I'm going to read both. read the screenplay for Roman J Israel now. I hope you fucking do. That would be amazing. That's a flex. That's a flex right there. You see that movie?

No, I read the screenplay. I'm going to go to your coffee shop. You're not going to know it. And I'm going to be on the last page when you walk in. I'll be like, oh, Ian, you get coffee here too. And I will just have finished the script. Are you reading in public like that? Are you reading scripts in public?

No, I've never read a script in my life. I highly doubt that I ever will. Do people, no, you read them. at home. Yeah, I read Boomerang. People read it. It's good to learn to learn how to write the script. If you put a script in book form, I would

read it in public, but if it was like a script in, well, like, they're big paper. Well, no, they have them. There's two different ways. They have, like, obviously the big, like printer paper ones, and then they also have ones that look like Oh, just like a books? Yeah. Scripts are a lot easier to read, I feel like, than

you think, too. It's like... Oh, you withdrew. Yeah, there's like a ton of exposition. Yeah. Sean, you could read. like, I still don't think you'd get through one, but like, one could. Just know that one page is one minute a dial. I could read this script for like the Grinchers and one minute. For the non-patriot listeners,

you should explain the Roman J. Zeratheirat thing. Oh, sign up for the Patreon. It'll get, it'll be explained. We did a Denzel Washington auction draft. And let's just say one of us took Roman J. Israel Esquire. Blew it. One of us took Roman J. Israel. Squire.

If you saw that movie and liked it, Smash Like. And one of us has been trying to convince the other two for quite some time that it is a good movie. I don't know how many more... I think it's on streaming right now. Neither one of you have budged.

I think it's on streaming right now. I'm pretty sure. I mean, neither one of... The one of us who, the two of us who haven't seen, I have not budged. I'm looking it up. I'll watch it tonight if it's on streaming. I think we should do it for watch alongside on scene.

I think that would be the fun part. Okay, let's do that. That would be fun. When you're in town. You got huge cooking up your sweet potatoes and you associate it with Roman J. Israel for the rest of your life. That sounds like such a strange kink thing.

That sounded so different than what it was. Is somebody cooking Roman J. Israel? I was trying to cook up my sweet potatoes the other night. I couldn't stop thinking about Roman J. Israel. We're leaving the Esau. It helps you last longer. Isn't there an Esquire on there that we keep leaving off? Roman J. Israel.

Esri. He's an Esrile. What does that mean? You're a lawyer, right? Yeah, basically. So it's Ivan Carmel Esquire? I don't know if it's... Oh, that's dangerous.

Stay away from him. I think every Esquire is a lawyer, but I don't know if every lawyer's an Esquire. Oh, it's one of those. Let me look. Isn't it an American thing, or do we even do that here? Well, Roman J. Israel Esraal Esquire is American. Despite its name being two other countries.

You read the fictional Wikipedia page about the man in the movie. We're like, yeah, he's American. He was a boy there. I do that sometimes. I just did that

for all of bad. I started watching Mad Men and couldn't get into it. So I just read how it ends. You never, have you ever seen it? I tried to,

I don't know, I tried, I got like, season one was on, but I wasn't paying attention. I got into season two. And then I was like, I don't want to,

I don't want to do this. January Jones. That's good. So I guess Espire is just a lawyer. Yeah. Boom. Ivan Carmel Esquire. Next time I see him.

We'll see him. Let him out. I will. Yeah, he should start signing. Because it's ESQ, you can put it at the end of your signature and stuff. Yeah. I put it on, I put it on people when I mail packages. I'll either put doctor or Esquire.

It's awesome. Oh, I got some shirts. Somebody sent me some shirts. You guys got, you guys both got a shirt over there. I'll just bring them next weekend. Okay. What else do you got? Nothing.

No, no liquid IV or nothing like that. I wouldn't worry that. He's up. Bring his pick? This is my pick. All right. Can we take a second break? Champion sent me a bunch of sweatpants.

This episode of All-Fantasy Everything, the podcast you were listening to

and love. Thank you so much. It's brought to you by Babel. Now, I don't want to speak for blanket statement, but I'll speak for myself, why do I want to learn a new language so I can communicate in the country or anywhere where they speak that language? I want to be able to get around. I don't just want to kind of know it. I want to know it in a real actual way that it's going to help. Help me move around wherever I'm at. Babel gets you there extremely fast. Learning a new language is very daunting, obviously. Babel breaks it down into small steps, and then they get you big Ws, baby. Small steps, big wins. Progress you can actually track, which helps me. I need to be able to see what I'm doing. And they have tiny little lessons. All right. They got lessons that

are like 10 minutes at a time, which for somebody like me is great. I don't want to bite off more than I can chew. I want to feel like I accomplish something every time after I'm done with a lesson. And that's exactly what they do. They have everything designed by by real humans, language experts. They want you to learn. They got over 200 experts. They're actual, there's not like robots, not like AI teaching you, unless Alan Iverson's one of the teachers, but I doubt it. And they want to teach you relevant words, relevant ways to speak, everything. Fred of the podcast, Shane Torres, has lobbed up a challenge to your boy about learning a new language next year, so I can't wait. I've dabbled, but dabble with Babel. Holy cow, that's a new phrase.

But this year, I'm going to actually hopefully put my nose to the grindstone and get it done. And Babel is perfect for it. I can't wait. And however you learn best, they got you, listening, speaking, writing, however you want to do it.

Right? Yeah. Okay. Dahl. Dahl. I think we're going to get a streamer or other completely online personality hosting Saturday Night Live. Oh, that's a good one. That's real close to one that I had.

That was my next book. Yeah. I think 100%. It's going to be like KSye or some shit. Yeah, or like speed or like one of those guys. Like they're going to host S&L this year. It's got speed is huge. I show speed is huge.

My little brother thinks he's like the best athlete. He just raised a cheetah. He raised a cheetah. We all saw it for some reason, even though I don't follow him. Big deal. Can I barman you, Steve A.J. Raced a dog. That cheetah scratched him first.

That did happen. Did Steve not beat the dog? I don't know The dog Yeah They beat the dog The dog didn't know It was in a race

It was crazy It was insane He was just having a nice day At the park Yeah Steve's just a running He's got his shoes off It was nuts

Shout to Steve AJ I think this is a calendar year We get it I don't think it happens This season I do think it happens Next season Yeah

It's crazy The Druski Never did it Yeah that's nuts Yeah Yeah Yeah I think I think you're totally right

I think The size of what they do is just too big it's too big the offer is going to go out like legacy media is going to have to I saw something the other day one out of every 18 people on the planet follow Mr. Beast Jesus I've never even seen a whole video they're so long is it because there's so many children on the planet I don't know what it is it's like for kids yeah I don't know but I mean it's very interesting some of the stuff I don't I don't sit through them either but that's just

crazy to be like, that's, I mean, how much more famous can you get? I've been drunk and ordered Mr. Beast Burger once, and I've still not seen a video. It's on Uber Eats. How was the burger? Yeah. When I say he dies, I mean Mr. Beast, by the way. That's the prediction, just to clear it up now that we're deeper into the podcast. David?

Oh, I think we're talking about fashion's coming. coming back, I think fedora's come back, unironically. This is, I think this might be a little bit of wishcasting for you. Oh, because, no, haven't we talked about this? I've got, I'm past it for me. I'm past it for me. I'm past it for me. I'm past it for me. You don't think before the end of the year, you're going to see Shalame pop out with a fedora? That's crazy. I think you might be right. I think you might be right. Yeah. Because they're I don't think that's crazy at all.

They're speed running turn of the century fashion. Specifically bad turn of the century fashion. Specifically bad turn of the century fashion. They're going to get a hold of it. They're going to be in a denim fedora. They're going to get a hold of it. Can I? He's going to look like Justin and Brittany at the VMAs.

That was that meme of her in the crowd where he's up like beatboxing. Poor girl. Poor girl. Why? Okay. Why were fedora's bad? Was it just because they were easy to make? fun of and we didn't like the people wearing them because I don't

really see. I think lame guys got a hold of them because they became really accessible. So it's not the fedora's fault. They just were on dorks. Brother. I've had this conversation across this great nation. It's a great hat. Yes, I'm saying that's not how women feel. No. Yeah.

It so. I don't know what you feel about fedoras? She just said you know how I feel David inside. You catch a fastball of the nose. Yeah. She just bunches me. Say that shit in the house. I think what happened is it started, like,

some fashion needs to be worn in context. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like, vests. Yeah. Vests. Like, a feds.

Dress vests. Fodora. Those two, like, specifically, if they escape the context of, like, a suit, you know, starts to get real tricky. Now you got jeans and sneakers on. It's hard to not look like an asshole. Yeah, almost exclusively. Like, there's a reason those,

those, like, fashions go together, you know? They, like, they've been, and then certain things just don't look right together. And when you throw a fedora on with a t-shirt and a fucking vest, you look like Jason Ryan. Yeah, but if you're Steven Dork, you look fine. If you're who?

If you're a hot guy, like Stephen Dorf is who pops into my head. When you think of a hot guy. Who's, who's like a, this is a, I'm 70. Who's like a cool is a new hawk? I guess Timothy Shalame is a great example, but like, fedora, t-shirt, jeans, dope shoes. He'd look fine. He'd be hot as hell.

Yes, he would. He's beautiful. He, the face. Y'all hop in the comments. Hop in the comments. I'll jump in the chat. Let us know. Hey, you know, we know we're old because, like,

I don't think we're even referencing the right internet slang to do that anymore. I know. I can't think of anyone hotter than Stephen Dorf, who was in the crying video. No, no, no. But I also mean, I also mean like, like and smash that's, I don't think that's even up to date. Oh, here's the picture of the Iceman in a, is that a fedora ice? That is a fedora. Sign up for the Patreon right now and you can see it.

What are they saying? Yeah, it's not going to go on the YouTube. Oh! You look cool. You put it, hold on, hold on, hold on, 2019 that year? That's a fadora for real. That was a good fedora. Damn, that's not even like a target-ass fedora.

That's like a Fedora. I bought it in Soho. It was like, I know you bought it in Soho. I see your big ass ring. You still got that hat? No, I know. Look at your whole kit. Dude.

Look at the pants on the dude behind you. I can see his most recently contacted on his phone. Whole ass phone. Is this a, is this a worship music group? This is, yeah, at the church that I was out. I knew it was Christian rock. I knew it was Christian. I could.

Smell it on the photo. God, this is dank as hell, dude. Sign up for our patrons. Sign up for our Patreon. No, I haven't kept in touch with his people in a very long time. Yeah, you got to drop this on the Patreon. You got to let him see. This is crazy.

That guy in the back looks serious. That guy in the back is having a rough time with those. That is the trouble of skinny jeans. He's waiting for his fedora. Sorry, Dan. Waiting for Fadone. Sorry, Dan. His name is a voice.

Spadora the Explorer Was the guy in the front the rapper? No, no, no, no. He was actually, no. He was this designer, graphic designer. Oh, but, oh, okay, so you guys weren't all musicians. No, no, no, no.

I was the only musician of that. Oh, okay. 2015 was, every single one of you had that shit on. No, yeah, you guys were getting it off for sure. Yeah, every single one of you. Is that a lion ring, Isaac? Lion ring, yeah, on my. Lion ring?

Yeah. Does that lion... Does that lion... Does that lion concern himself with the opinions of Filipinos? No, he does not. I am going to show this to my wife. Please do.

Please do. Of Laura's going to see it the second I leave this room. I'm not showing it to Dana because I want her to stay married to me, dude. Yeah, you don't want Dan coming in. Hell no. That was the problem with skinny jeans being cool

because Dan was a thick... If you haven't... He's a thicker gentleman. Yeah. And those pants could not be skinny here. They are. Those are, those are, that's the slimmest fit. Those are like dazing a fuse, put them on, zip them up with pliers. Yeah, those look like they were probably hard to put on and take off.

So, Fodorus. I think you're right. Yeah. It might be four for four right now. I think I'm playing. Bro, I think I'm cooking with gas. Sean, it's time for your fourth and then your final pick. Ooh.

All right. I think all of us get pooped on by a bird this year. I didn't get hit. last year. It's been years for me since I got shit on by the bird. I was thinking about, I'm like, what silly but could really happen? I've been pooped on by three birds. And it's been...

Recently? What'd you do? Since I've been sitting here. There's a moved on by three birds. I stole three birds. Free birds. Three birds. It cost me a pretty penny. I don't mind telling you. I got pooped on once when I was doing a paper route.

I got pooped on once when I was walking home for Mabreux. That was a bummer. Did he poppin laughing at you? Yeah, dude. Then I got pooped on probably four years ago at the park and Max saw it happen and it was hilarious. She still respects you. Yeah, I think we're due.

I think everyone's due to get crapped down by a bird. A bird shit on me when I was walking to check the mail once when I was in like fifth grade, I think. It's supposed to be good luck. That's what I hear. I get 10,000 steps a day at least. So I'm outside a lot. I didn't get pooped on last year. I do think I got pooped on the year before.

Okay. So you think you're your wife got pregnant? Just the three of us. You're my wife? Good luck. Yeah. It was good luck. Yeah, good luck.

And what a boy. That's what I'm saying. It's like so I hope I hope I hope I know. She got pregnant last year. Well, never mind. Never mind. I forgot how babies were. Yeah, me too.

He's my baby. We all get pooped on by a bird and your final pick. Ooh. Um, I think, uh, pretty, pretty simple. But I think a lot of bands that said they were never going to be a band again are going to be a band again and tour because of Oasis. I need you to name one. Oh, were you going to name, were you going to go specific? No, I just want you to walk out.

I want you to go out on a limb. Radiohead. They're already planning the tour. Oh, they are? Yeah. Good news, dude. That way, I'll go. Would you go to New York to see Radiohead?

Yeah. That's another one where Laura would be like, I didn't know you liked him. I'd be like, well, because I'm not singing Radiohead all the time. Like, yeah. We should go see Radiohead if they do it. I would, you know. I would go with you guys. I would go with you guys just for the fun and the weekend of it.

It'd be a great time. Who does Garth Brooks still tour? I don't know. I want to see Chris Gaines. I would say Blink, but they've like all but confirmed it. but just that like that like I don't know

Aerosmith REM REM could be your answer there That would be gnarly Arrow the white stripes I wouldn't go see Aerosmith R&M was talking heads

That that would be dope as hell You wouldn't go see AeroSmith You know what Did I hear this should I make this up Up in smoke? I heard did I hear that was going to happen again The tour with like Snoop Bredreidreid M&M?

Is that that would be I missed it the first time they were in Sioux City and I chose not to go and I was so stupid I would why did you choose not to go I just I was like that whatever like I did I probably didn't have 50 bucks or whatever or like didn't think I could justify spending it there instead of on 40s so I feel about not going to see prince at slims he played fucking slims God yeah I never saw prince I thought we would have more time why we all did like Ian you could go see macklemore like you've always wanted to that would be I'm a Ryan Lewis fan

Everybody knows that. I forgot his name. I was going to say Maclemore and Ryan Lewis, but I couldn't think of Ryan Lewis. If McLemore's working with Ryan Lewis, yeah, I'll go see MacLamore. If Ryan Lewis is doing solo

or maybe even one of his three-piece jazz outfits, I'll go see that. Yeah, I just, I don't know. There's always, it was such a big thing. Like, I don't know. If I was in a dope band that wasn't touring anymore, I'd be like,

why don't we can go make a few milly each? Yeah, the one last ride tour. There's a room that Drey Snoop and 50 Cent are going to tour together. Really? And Eminem wouldn't be on that. Anyway, that would just be, that would be sick. I don't want to go see that. I kind of don't either.

I don't know if I go see that. Listen, I think he's a great rapper. I saw 50 Cent at Ball Arena. It's not the best live show I've seen. It'd be fun to see Snoop and Dre. doing all the hits doing all the hits make you back to a time

I'm 38 that take me back to a time when I was in the Crips had the whole world in front of me it would probably be fun it would be fun like everything would be fun yep

I wouldn't go to New York for it and I don't know if I would go to the L.A. show because although maybe that would maybe that would be like I'd go to Kiev to watch Snoop and Dre. That might be the one to go to. I'd go anywhere. You say you go to Kiev? Yeah, I'd go anywhere to see Snoop and Dre.

Kiev? Careful. Well, I was I was just saying, isn't that Russia? Kiev? Yeah. I thought it was Russia. Huh? Kiev? Ukraine. It's in Ukraine. Oh, even It's war to war. Ukraine? No, I wouldn't. Point is, I'm just saying I'd go in. Ukraine. Ukraine.

Man, Isaac, you were wearing the shit on the side. You're still looking at that. also what's the cut you had to figure out your hair and the way you it's a much different time very different time I had like an undercut

there's no possible way you could ever look let me go there's no way you could possibly look back and look at your hair you know it's crazy your face I was gonna say your hair looks dope

and there's no get there's you're not gonna look back in 10 years be like oh what's I do with my hair I really figured out phone technology check this out guys hold on yeah Isaac sticker

oh no how do you do stickers I know how to do the copy thing like you look good dude thank you

okay Dave's your final pick oh if he makes it's triumphant return to Texas yeah who

we've only been once and we drafted drinks is that right it was the only time it was our first live show first live show that we were all together

you did Moont Tower with the Sclars I think and before like this was like a thing you know yeah but yeah we did we did Austin do you remember because none of it were like no one's gonna be there and then I remember yeah I remember walking up thinking that and then there was a line and we were like

whoa and also we were gonna go on that tour remember Dallas yeah yeah let's figure that out this week yeah I'm in do it fellas I think 2027, I'm going to be pretty excited. 2027? Yeah, I think I'm going to be sitting here with a buffy in, a well-red John.

Right. Belly full of Texas barbecue. We all have big belt buckles? Yeah, Denver Super Bowl Champions T-shirt. We just, we record it. We check in. It's like, I'm blind. I couldn't read any books.

It just happened. John's out here dropping Roman J. Israel. I call him Roman Js. It's like Roman J. Israel said and then something from that movie

my final pick although I have about I want to I want to list off all of mine yeah for sure

yeah I think we all this would be a fun one to go through my final one I'm going to go with

Tom so it's tricky because the the Oscar nominations won't come out until

2027 no but I'm going to say Tom Cruz gives their performance, that will end up getting him nominated for an Oscar. Yep.

In Diggers. In Digger. Yep. Yeah. It's going to be, as we were talking about that earlier, my buddy was saying that. It's his year. It's Alejandro In your read, too. It's Tom Cruise's time.

People, you know what? Fuck it. Win. Yeah. Win. If anything, because it's like a like, he's never got one, right? Like he got nominated for like Magnolia and rain, maybe rain man. Probably not, though.

Dustin Hoffman won, right? And other than that. Four on the Fourth of July, I think he got nominated. But, like, yeah. But he's never got one, which is criminal. I think we're going to get, I think we're going to, he's going to go down swinging. I'll tell you that. Yeah.

Well, because it's funny, because we were just talking about this, but he did 20 years of action movies. He didn't have, you know, they don't give Oscars to the people in those movies. They give them to the movies for effects and things or direction maybe, no? Not direction and sometimes effects. Yeah. But usually just not. usually their reward is box office, you know.

Yeah, this is nuts. Tom Cruise doesn't have an Oscar. It's crazy. Does not have one. They may have given a man, my voice is this is exactly as much time as I had. That's my final pick. Isaac, do you have a pick?

Do you have a prediction? Yeah. I have two. The boring one is I think England they're going to win the World Cup. They haven't won one since 1966. It's coming home? I think it's coming home.

I think the team looks really good. But the more, the spicier one is I think Kanye comes back to us. No. I think he makes a return. I don't think that's going to be. I think he gets on the right meds. I think he gets the right people around him. This is a wish.

It's wishful thinking, but I'm wishing that he comes back. Your predictions would make Gordon so happy. Both of them. Both of those things. James Gordon's so happy. Oh, man. I listened to the good life the other day. I want him back.

It's a crime. man can you ever get someone full it i hope so is it better to have loved and lost than not have loved it all that's true that's what the idiot made me think hmm sean can you list yeah bad idiot yeah john your first uh you you drafted watch things on the windshield of a way mo this year doom uh avengers doomsday breaks every box off record taylor swift gets pregnant you all three of us get pooped on by a bird this year and a big band that doesn't tour anymore tours again. David, you took

I'm going to get mildly shredded. Sean is going to read two books. The Broncos are going to win the Super Bowl. Fedoras comes back. And AFE takes the Lone Star State once again. I took, he dies. Ivan Drago style. If he dies, he dies.

Skinny jeans come back. Sean doesn't read a book or watch Roman J. Israel Esquire. So there's no way all one of these can come through. Why did you do this to me? A streamer host Saturday Night Live and Tom Cruise gives a performance that will win him the Oscar. Yeah. Yeah.

We left a lot of good stuff on the board. I'm going to run through mine really quick. I truly believe this. This is not just me. I think jazz is going to become cool again. I think like kids. Come on, I think kids, I think it's going to become like a bunch of beatniks out there and their skinny jeans.

I think it's going to be like, aesthetic thing. I really do. I think it's going to be like a vibe. You know what I mean? I think like people will be posting pictures of them like listening to Miles Davis and blah, blah, blah. I don't think like it's going to blow up and like new jazz groups are going to be cool again. But I do think there's this restaurant in L.A. called Cafe Tondo, which is like super, it's like the coolest new L.A. Is it in Redondo? Tondo and Redondo. It's in Chinatown. And they do like jazz every, like, I forget what night, but it gets, it's like packed out. And I do think, like, as an aesthetic, jazz is going to become cool.

So that's one of them. I think we're going to get restaurants, like nice restaurants doing upscale casseroles. Oh, I like that. Like foody casseroles, I think you're going to, like, be a thing. Man, that would really get me at a nice restaurant. Gen Alpha discovers the Dave Matthews band. I'd go

I'd go Kind of the way they've like Re like unearthed nickel back And stuff like that I think we're gonna get Alcoholic peanut butter Hard peanut butter I think it's gonna happen

Slow down Nostradamas I think Snapple comes back They're gonna dig this up I think I think we have a Steve Harvey downfall this year No And I think

I think people turn on Charlie X-X and I think Stephen Colbert is back on the air by September. Whoa. What was the Charlie X-E-X thing? Why do you think that? I think there's going to be a backlash. Huh. Yeah. Interesting.

I'm just shooting. I'm just empty in the clip. No, I hear you. I think. Yeah. All I got is that I think boomers and ketamine are both going to be legal by the end of the year. Oh, yeah. Ketamine kind of. It's already legal, kind of. Is it?

Kind of. No, I can't. You can't go buy ketamine. Well, you can get it prescribed pretty easily. That don't mean legal. That doesn't mean legal. You got to have a prescription, so it's not like legal. Not recreational, no, but.

Yeah. Boomers are mushrooms for everybody. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, and I'm going to touch a mill. That's all this is the only ones I got. This year. That's manifest that.

That would be awesome. I would love that. Anything could happen, man. No. Absolutely. I think the kids are going to give us a new swear word. I think. Tom Cruise, when an Oscar was on there.

I think the DVDs and VCR combo is going to come back in like a weird, nice way where people will have them at the crib. I think people are going to start going to the movie theaters again for real. I think there's going to be a late night show on Netflix, like a nightly late night show on a streamer. This is the guy to ask. Don't, I don't. You don't see that happening?

So I didn't say it, but to me it's like it just, I'm trying to think of the implications or like how you would do it, but it just seems like they're going down that road. Netflix has tried. So, like, it's different to when Netflix is doing, well, with Mullaney. Like, oh, everybody's in L.A. But that's not even nightly, right? When it's, when it's in the season, it's weekly.

What they're doing now is, like, you can watch, like, Bill Simmons on Netflix. There's podcasts you can watch that, like, Netflix partnered with, like, a few podcast studios. Where you can watch that, and I kind of think their bet is that people will do that instead of... Instead of talk shows. Because like Amy Polar show kind of blurs that line anyway where it's like celebrities coming on

to talk to a host. So I don't know if they would ever invest the capital, the writers, all that stuff, into doing a late night show. Yeah. Unfortunately, I'd love it.

Yeah, I don't know. The way I could see them potentially doing it is if it was some sort of global late night show. But it wouldn't be nightly. But it would be a thing where it's like,

you have the huge star You never know it gets another job. Yeah, yeah. Like, honestly, yeah. And then, like, you have, like, a Bollywood star on, and then you have, like, you know, X, Y, Z. Unfortunately, I think late night shows are sort of a, the ones now. It's just, you've seen, the last dinosaurs are walking there.

You think so? Yeah. That's crazy. It sure seems like it. It sure seems like it. It's crazy to think that we saw the fall of that. That, as a kid, it was like an untouchable institution. It's crazy to think that that's.

It really is nuts. American art form. Yeah. I quit the Tonight Show, listeners. I worked there for nine months. I never really talked about it. I quit. How you feel?

There it is. Maybe this is off. This is off. Oh, I feel amazing. Okay. Feels great. You know what else?

I think that crowd clip, crowdwork clip trend is going away. Oh, yeah. I think that's going like way away for this year. Like, I think it's almost. Oh,

I think there's going to be a bounce back to live performance as far as God, I do too. I really, sooner or later, people are going to get sick of people not proven that they're good at you. This isn't me being hokey or naive or like too positive. I honestly do think people.

I was just in Seattle. And the feedback from there wasn't one bad person went out, one bad show. And it was a club weekend. Normally there's like one dud or like one group of dudes who just ruins the thing. Everybody was so excited and happy at the shows, every single person that I saw. Are your shows? Yeah, that I saw. Like it just, I think people are, yeah, they want to go out.

They want to do stuff. They want to be around other people. Or you've just developed a pretty good crowd. Yeah, it could be both. but like you got to remind yourself the world's still spinning you know like go out and be with people i think people are going to do that touch somebody touch a stranger go smile strike up a conversation put your thumb in their nostril yeah dude give my wet willie in their nose put your thumb all over the place that ever can you ever do that wet willie in the nose give it a shot really piss somebody off

yeah fucking psycho do it too long how you're doing your shows yeah everybody was happy about Willie in the nose Give them both fingers I think that's a charge Yeah, that's a charge Yeah, that's got to be rough Heck, we're going to have Another great year together, everybody
