When you're reaching for a best pal, make it a kippy because this kid's all right. Give it up for Kevin James Ryan everybody. I really don't like that you're pushing that slogan every fucking week. But whatever. I'll take it.
Starting point is 00:01:02 Happy to be here everybody. Thanks for listening. Back in NYC for a couple of days to get some supplies and then I headed back to the boardwalk. Jersey Shore, baby.

Starting point is 00:02:03 Come on. Fully. Thank you, brother. Listen, I was with you until that last one. Let's not lie with you. He got a bad hug. What's going on? It's not a good.
Starting point is 00:02:11 It's not good. It's one of the. Listen, I've accepted it as a, I've leaned into body positivity. Everyone forgets peanut. A penis is a part of your body. So if we're talking about plus size models and, you know, all kinds of people, it's like we got it. We got to include the little dick community.
Starting point is 00:02:27 So the LDC baby. I'm not, I'm not ashamed of it, but I don't, I want it out there that it's not a good penis. I just need that out there. Yeah. I don't know. I'm glad. I'm glad the words out there.
Starting point is 00:02:41 Thanks to whoever is spreading that, whatever great gal is spreading that, but it's not true. It was Jeff Ross. So it's. Dude, me too, man. I've had to lean into it too. The fatter I get, the smaller it gets. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:57 The worst, the harder it is for me to get to it. It's fucking, it's bad news, man. Yep. Thanks to Lord for dick pills for making it so that you don't have to come. You don't have to face yourself and wreck it. Realize you're a 30 year old man whose penis doesn't work now. Just take a couple of pills and you get, you can have sex without taking a long, hard look in the mirror.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Every, every time you can't get hard. It's Bluetooth folks. That's Bluetooth.com. That is correct. Promo code. I don't know if you guys have a sponsor. Promo code. Come down.
Starting point is 00:03:31 Promo code. Come down. Oh my God. So I think I have some bits and pieces. He's got some right there. Always. Tony Soprano doesn't need dick pills. Always ready to go.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Always got one in the chamber. I like how you had them there waiting to submit. Like maybe Foley's wearing some revealing that I need to chop up for. Yeah. Oh, when I, when I get to the point where I need to take dick pills for video sex, then we're in a real problem. That's a real issue. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:03 Yeah. You gotta keep the only fans going. You know what I mean? I've thought about it. So have I a little bit. There's a market for everything. Foley, there ain't a market for you. I've been on the market.
Starting point is 00:04:16 I've done some research. I ain't never come across anything like you. Somebody out there would want to see my butthole. I'm telling you that. I agree. I agree with that. Most doctors don't even want to see your butthole. They would just be like, no, I don't think your insurance covers that.
Starting point is 00:04:32 I think I have prostate cancer. Well, you're fucked. Get out of my office. I think I have a somewhat of an idea of your story. I know you grew. Did you grow up in the, in the city of Baltimore proper? Yep. Yep.
Starting point is 00:04:47 Right. I'm not one of those assholes who claims to be from a city and is from a suburb. That always makes my blood, especially with Baltimore where it's like, there's a big difference, you know? Oh yeah. But no, I grew up, I grew up in Southeast Baltimore, Greek town.
Starting point is 00:05:02 Yeah. I grew up there, went to city schools, the whole thing. And I basically lived in Baltimore the whole time until I moved. Yeah. I did comedy in DC. So I would commute essentially. It's like an hour away. And yeah, I lived in Baltimore for until I moved here when I was 25, 26.
Starting point is 00:05:21 And your mom and dad are from Greece, like originally like they came here? Yeah. They came here in the 80s. So. Did you own a diner in Baltimore? Is that correct? I wish. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:33 No. Why did I think I heard that? No. Yeah. Absolutely. Your mom has a mustache from what I understand. No. I could have swore your parents owned a diner.
Starting point is 00:05:42 No. My father's a carpenter who built a lot of diners. Ah. And I've spent a lot of time. Listen, I've spent my fair share of time. Listen, I don't want to, I don't want you thinking I haven't eaten a diner. Yeah. Of course.
Starting point is 00:05:55 And listen, that is the, the economy in Greek town really is like diner. Diner driven. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like my dad was very much, depending on the, on the diner economy, just to, you know, build furniture, all this kind of shit, put in a bar. I mean, every Greek restaurant, like there's a good chance my dad has built something in that.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Some sort of booth or something. Yes. Within, you know, a hundred miles of Baltimore for sure. Does anybody run a diner better than a Greek family? That is, we do crush that for sure. Oh my God. You know why that is stuff? I have, I have no idea whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:06:30 I did. It just doesn't make sense. I think we Greek people are weird. Uh, they, they did kind of find their niche in America. Just kind of, we don't really run any industries. We don't really do it. It's like we, we are industries kind of developed around, you know, the, the cities that we were in.
Starting point is 00:06:50 So diners, you know, laundromats, like carpenters, all that kind of shit. Uh, just like on businesses where you didn't really need an education, you just had to learn the craft. It's like, and then it's work ethic. That's kind of where they, they got their foothold. But yeah, it's really true that the diner, whether it's like up and down the East coast and even in like Detroit, it's Greek people that run those, which that doesn't make any sense to me.
Starting point is 00:07:11 Eastern Seaboard at least could kind of see, but I don't know why I have no fucking clue why. Wild man. Yeah. Dude, I first found my first diner. The first time I ever met a Greek dude, I mean, he was running a diner that my cousin was working at and he made me a grilled cheese and he made it with fucking mayonnaise on it instead of butter.
Starting point is 00:07:29 It blew my fucking socks off dude. I was like, I don't know what a Greek person is, but this dude knows his way around a GC dude. We will throw, that's the thing about, there is no regard for human life when a Greek person is chef. It'll be delicious, but you'll be like, wow, you're like, I didn't even know. I can't feel my toes anymore. This is the best year I've ever had.
Starting point is 00:07:49 They're like, yeah, there's three sticks of butter in it. It's just fruit loops with whipped cream. This is what you're getting. It's heavy cream instead of milk. Isn't it good? But yeah, I don't know why we do it, but yeah. What did your mom do while you were going? Did she stay at home?
Starting point is 00:08:07 Yeah, she was, she stayed at home for a while. She actually was a waitress in a Greek restaurant. So that is the, so I had, there's a lot of leftovers waiting for her to come back in the weekends, just like a fat little boy. Honestly, honestly, watching SNL, that's when I started watching SNL. It was the only thing on at 1130 waiting for her to get back and bring home tins of calamari. While I do, I do love calamari. It doesn't hold that well though.
Starting point is 00:08:36 Listen, baby, this place is good. Shout out to Icarus. If anyone's involved, go tell him, tell him Stavi sent you. Try the tatama. All right. Let's do it. That's not bad. That's great.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Dude, let me tell you something. I worked at a place in the West Village that made tatama salata. I would literally eat it until I got sick. It's incredible. And this is caviar. It's like whipped caviar for the uninitiated. And it's pink. It's fucking, it's yeah, it's delicious.
Starting point is 00:09:05 It's unbelievable. It's got to clog your heart so fucking bad. Absolutely. And that's what I mean. Even Greek people even took caviar like a fancy food and made it a dip. They threw, they threw mayo in it. Throw it on the griddle for a couple of minutes. And it's creamy.
Starting point is 00:09:23 It's fucking delicious. It's great. Dude, that means a little mayo and fucking four pans of bread with it. Let's go. Yeah, exactly. Did you have brothers and sisters growing up? Are you an only child? I'm the oldest of three.
Starting point is 00:09:34 My brother might have twin younger brothers. They're two years younger than me. Wow. That's awesome. Yeah. It was nice. I mean, it's very much the immigrant like first born that I had to deal with where it was like, you know, I also was like, I was pretty good at school.
Starting point is 00:09:50 I was like a good test taker. And you know how fucking schools work. It's like they decide whether you're smart or not in second grade. You know, and I was, I happened to be good at like standardized tests and I was like a good, you know, whatever. And I was a mouthy kid. So it was like, my parents just thought that I was, my mom was one of those moms that thought I was like going to Harvard at 11, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:10:10 Like that was that smart. So yeah, it was like, I was the oldest and I always had, you know, I was, I was considered the meal ticket for the, they were hoping I'd be like a lawyer or something. Senator Halkias. Yeah. Honestly. Yeah. I was, I interned at the Maryland assembly house when I was in college.
Starting point is 00:10:29 When I was in college, I was like, yeah, I went to school on like a policy scholarship and it's crazy to think that I am the same guy as that. Well, because I am, I've just ruined my brain in the intervening 12 years, but you know, what school did you go to? University of Maryland, Baltimore County. So it's like UMBC. Actually, you know the team that beat Virginia, the first 16 seats ever beat a number one seat?
Starting point is 00:10:55 Yes, absolutely. We finally have some, I finally have something. Yes. Because before it's like, we're, they're like, oh, University of Maryland. It's like, no, the one, the one literally 30 minutes closer to Baltimore. Not the Terps, the Chesapeake Bay Retriever. Literally, we get a type, a subtype of retriever as our mascot. The old, the old bays.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Yeah. Honestly, there's a lot of old bay floating around in the dining hall, but it was a good school. You know, it was like, I, it was like a local school, obviously, and they had, they had like, they wanted to like invest in Baltimore a lot. So they had like partnerships with high schools and they had great scholarship programs. I mean, like a lot of my friends that I went to fucking school with are like doing big shit. They're like, you know, they're involved in Maryland, you know, the politics.
Starting point is 00:11:42 A lot of them like went on to go to like grad school at, you know, IVs and all that kind of shit. But I was just, I just could not do any of that stuff, man. It was clear. It was clear to me that I didn't want to do it by the time I was finishing school for sure. If the quarantine's taught me one thing, it's that if I ever have to work a regular job again or do something like that, I'll fucking shoot myself.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Oh yeah. Never. Oh yeah. Dude. This was like the breaking point. I couldn't go back. Yeah. Well, see, that's interesting.
Starting point is 00:12:13 You say that because to me, I'm almost like, to me, it's almost like, well, my old way of life is over. Like maybe I need to move to Baltimore just and open the diner. Like now, now I'm almost like, I can't do an office job. Don't get me wrong. That's out. Yeah. But some, some honest work, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:12:30 Overcharging people for grilled cheese. Dude, you can charge me whatever you want for that grilled cheese dog. Yeah. Honestly, I've gotten into like, I, I started grilling like my mom, like this is the most it's funny because it's like, I think especially stand up comics, but especially people in our generation, it's like, well, we're like, I'm 31. Like this is the, I should have a kid. Sure.
Starting point is 00:12:55 Historically speaking. And now I'm just becoming a dad without a child. I'm just grilling constantly. Like I'm literally like checking just like, and I'm like, damn, I'm, I think I'm ready to just have for my life to catch up. I just want to have a kid do a podcast, go on the road once, once a month and just grill at every opportunity. And that's honestly what I want out of my life.
Starting point is 00:13:17 And I'm like, that's clean living right there. I'll tell you that. Exactly all I want. I don't need, I don't need anything. I don't have any more aspirations. It's over. I don't want to be on TV. Just let me podcast and let me go to the funny bone once a month and have money for rib
Starting point is 00:13:32 eyes. And I'm good. I'm fucking good. I just want one kid, wife, and a nice like woman that treats me better than I deserve. Is that so much to ask? No. No. Girl out of your league in a Weber grill, buddy.
Starting point is 00:13:46 That's it, brother. I'm ready. I'm salivating. You just said that. I'm salivating at the thought of that. We just want to keep, keep savvy and fucking Tomahawk steaks. That's all we need to cover. I just crushed a couple of rib eyes for Father's Day yesterday.
Starting point is 00:14:01 Oh, we did. We did a couple racks of ribs on the Traeger Smoker. I was out there all day. We're doing a brisket on fucking Wednesday. This is the most excited I've been for anything the last 10 years. 10 hours. It's going to be cooking. I love that.
Starting point is 00:14:14 It's going to be going in three minutes. All right, stop it on a smoker. Yeah. Oh, dude, a Traeger. Those things are fucking awesome. Yeah. They really are. Honestly, don't move on because if we don't, I'm going to be asking you about grilling
Starting point is 00:14:30 and smoking for the next 40 minutes. So please ask me your questions. Well, let me ask you this. We want to get into some of your garbage questions here. I'm curious deep down, like on the surface, you know, all that stuff, yes, but do you think you're garbage? Oh, yeah, for sure. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:14:49 I think it's pretty hard not to be garbage. The world is so bad that if you have decided to do stand-up comedy, you're garbage for sure. We could all be social workers. We could be teachers. We could even be like garbage. We could be serving society. What we do has no value whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:15:12 No, it's all self-serving as well. It's all self-serving, dude. Now sure, there's a couple thousand people that might be sad if we stopped doing our podcast, stopped doing stand-up, but you know what? For the most part, you could keep watching movies. That's one thing this has taught me is like, there's so many movies. There's like, people who will go watch, there's enough, you know, people can pick Joe Rogan or Amy.
Starting point is 00:15:37 They can pick the big ones and like them. It's like, we are not helping the world at all. I quit being an after-school tutor in Baltimore City to focus on open mics. By definition, I'm a garbage human being. That's just, I don't know. That is a fuck block. You know what I mean? Like, I'm a piece of shit.
Starting point is 00:15:51 That's not good. And I've made my peace with it and I live in my little trash palace right now, but I know that's what it's made of. I know that's what the walls around me are constructed of. It's garbage. So yes, I do think I am garbage for sure. Oh my God. Well, we're going to find out here because I want to see.
Starting point is 00:16:10 I want to see. I want to see how the, how the hockey is family, how everybody grew up over there and find out what's what. Oh yeah. A couple of the basics. Now you lived, you said you lived in the city limits. Did you guys live in a single family home or was it an apartment? Yeah, town.
Starting point is 00:16:26 It was a townhouse. Greak town is like, that's, that's the, you know, it's like row houses. Like row houses. Yeah. It was a real Ellis Island style upbringing. It's like me, I share a wall with my grandmother. You know what I mean? My little brothers.
Starting point is 00:16:39 My little brothers shared a room and my parents lived like their, their bedroom was downstairs where the living room was, then the basement was the kitchen. So it was like, you know, too many and at a certain point, there was one point where my cousin lived with us for like a few years. So how old your cousin, she was my, she's a year older than me. So she like, she had there, you know, she, she moved in with us. Her dad was a piece of shit. She moved in with us for a while.
Starting point is 00:17:05 You know. Yeah. First of all, if you want to talk, historically speaking, yes, my family, it's garbage, trash. The kitchen in the basement, that's a tough one. When your kitchen's underground, that's like, that's like fallout shelter. Yeah. And that was a bit, yeah, we used to have a two, it used to be apartments and they like, there was one kitchen upstairs and one kitchen downstairs and they, they went with the kit,
Starting point is 00:17:27 the basement one. Yeah. For sure. But yes, no, we're trash for sure. There's some custody battles in there. My uncle was a piece of shit. My dad was a piece of shit. You know, it's all, it's all, it's all trash, baby.
Starting point is 00:17:39 Does anybody, do you have any family members that currently don't talk to each other? We're like, you're like, oh, we can't go over, you know, or, you know. Oh, me and my dad. I am the family member that doesn't talk to, you know what I mean? Like we don't, you know, but yeah, in Greece, there's like feuds about something. I don't understand. Going back hundreds of years. I'm disrespect at a barbecue that happened like in 1994 that like my, my second, my,
Starting point is 00:18:06 my dad's second cousins, they can't get it. They won't get in a room together. I love that. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I'm lucky in that it's like, it's like, it's almost like a, you know, we get the vanilla chocolate swirl.
Starting point is 00:18:20 That's me with, because I have non-garbage family and I have, there are streaks of me that are not garbage, but it's intertwined. There's no separating them. That's our favorite thing is that like, we realize everybody has, it's like a constant struggle. Like the garbage part of the first part that knows better and you're like, I can't, I can't help it. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:18:41 Totally. My mom's cool. My brothers are good people. So, you know, there's, there's, there's some good in there for sure, but yeah. What was, what was the name of the grocery store that your mom went to growing up? Where would you shop? Oh, interesting. Kind of.
Starting point is 00:18:57 I mean, we did, we were for sure, we had stints at those like discount markets where there's no, there's no refrigerator, you know, those ones where it's like, yeah, it's like, there's like, if you're good, if they're getting meat that's in coolers, you know, the bags of cereal that are like, that are like, you know, grain feed, like for horses, like that kind of shit. We definitely had some stints, some stints there for sure. To my mom's credit, I didn't realize we were poor for my whole childhood. I just did not know.
Starting point is 00:19:29 So she was hiding it for sure. I didn't realize it until we went to, until it was like college, you know, when you have to like do FAFSA or whatever it is, and they're like, yeah, now put in your assets. And I was like, mom, what about our assets? She was like zero. And I was like, I was like, oh, this is a language barrier thing. This means like, how much does, how much total money, including our, the things we own?
Starting point is 00:19:55 She's like, I know it's zero. Like we're in debt. Then I'm like, oh, okay, I've been poor this whole time. I'll put my monocle and cigarette holder away. Exactly. Yeah. So we spent some time at those grocery stores and there was one called Santonis too. That was like a total like local chain that I don't think is still there anymore.
Starting point is 00:20:17 It sounds classy though. It's absolutely not. It's absolutely not. I know you mean because there's a, there's a classy one that's like really hoity-toity like suburb one called Balducci's. And I guess if you didn't know those two, you would think they're just the Italian in them sounds like a nice Italian market. That's what I would.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Yeah. Yeah. One is like, you know, having go, you know, one is it's the difference between going to like a nice Italian like steakhouse and then going to getting fucking Olive Garden. You know what I mean? Like caravans or something. Yeah. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:20:52 Exactly. Okay. What do you got, Kip? All right. Why are we on food a little bit? If you are at a grocery store, how do you feel about the free samples stuff? Oh, I'm all in. Are you kidding me?
Starting point is 00:21:04 Do you ever double back? I double back. It's good. I'm doubling down. I'm doubling down. Okay. I mean, will you like dip? If there's like a thing of like hummus or like, I'm not double dipping.
Starting point is 00:21:16 Come on. But you'll, you'll sit there and like you'll, you'll dip a chip. Like you're hanging out at a barbecue. That's interesting. I don't know that I would dip, but I will absolutely, if there's like a nice little piece of pound or some cheese or something, like if the shit is good, I'm getting more than one and I might, I might get three. I might get, I've known, I've been known to go for it in fact, in my head and sometimes
Starting point is 00:21:39 I'll just go real quick, but sometimes I'm a gentleman about, I'll take a stroll around this. Yeah. It's always big. The inner aisle. Will you stop it? Oh, I forgot. Oh, this is pineapple cake.
Starting point is 00:21:50 He's still here. Well, I don't remember if it was good or not and I'm still considering buying it. So maybe I'll have another slut. Just to my, no one gives a fuck. The employees could not care less. Why do we always think every, cause I do it's social anxiety. You get so fucked. You get, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:07 It's the fat kid in us. We think we're pulling one over on them. You know what I mean? Like, ah, I've got to give one to my wife real quick. She's over in, you know, he's over in houseware or whatever. She's pregnant in the car. I'm going to go out and give it to her. The worst is when you kind of get caught up when like, like, if there's a sales person
Starting point is 00:22:25 there and they're giving you, they're giving you the spiel about the product and like you're acting like you give a shit. You're just like, how do I get four more of these in me? Really? No corn product. Yeah. They always give you the bullshit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:40 Actually, this is all, you know, we only use half a GM. It's like, dude, whatever, give me the fucking crackers. Let's go. I'll actually do you one better. Not only do I double dip on free samples at my old grocery store in Baltimore when I had absolutely no money, I, they had a hot bar. I had two pieces of fried catfish every time I shopped and I washed it down with like, like a kind bar or something for dessert every single time.
Starting point is 00:23:07 I'm just walking around and I would throw it away. I would, I would put it in the thing like I actually was going to pay for it and I would just eat it and then I would just throw it away at some point. Yeah. I had a whole system. Dude, steel and fried catfish at the grocery store, that hot bar, that's an all time low I think on the fire. Shouts out to the, shouts out to the giant on 33rd in Baltimore.
Starting point is 00:23:25 Yo, Giants, Giants is solid operation. Giants legit. Yeah. Yeah. I, I know, you know, we were struggling growing up, but the one thing that my mom never crossed a line on that I always respected and that I always thought was pretty trashy is people who eat the food out of the cart while they're shopping. They start digging into it.
Starting point is 00:23:48 Yeah. But you want to taste a grape or something like that. Sure. But if you're walking around with your hand in a fucking box of cheez-its and you have it on like a little thing in the cart, you're fucking garbage. Yeah. You can't do that around your children for sure because that, that is, you know, you're instilling the wrong message, but I will say I'm, I'm personally, I mean, I won't
Starting point is 00:24:08 as much like now, like I'm not poor, so I get to just spend money on whatever I want. So I buy, I'll just buy snacks no matter what. So I'll, I'll eat in the thing and pay for it like a gentleman now. But like I said, I'm eating catfish, I'm just cracking open fucking chips. I'm just, I would take my great, I would just take like one of a candy. I was like, oh, it's like a specific candy bar. I hadn't tasted it. I'd be like, I'm interested in that.
Starting point is 00:24:33 Just take one of those and leave the packaging. I would eat the fuck out of that stuff. What the fuck? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Big time. Oh man. That is fucking great.
Starting point is 00:24:43 It's a big move for me as a kid was I would always to go like, they would bribe me with a roll because I was a little fat kid. Yeah. So I'd get a roll from the deli while my mom would food shop and I was like, just give me that big fuck, you know, that fucking roll, put me in the front of that car and let me fucking chill. Absolutely. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:24:59 What I love about that is most kids, it would be like some Dunkaroos fucking, maybe a Lunchable, some Gushers. This kid wanted a fucking Kaiser. I know. It's hilarious. Like you traveled in back in time from the depression. Like, can I have some flour and water on the tip of my tongue, mother? It's all I needed.
Starting point is 00:25:20 And still to this day, you get me a soft roll with a cold can of Coke. Oh. Good fucking night, dog hysterical, trash snack, pure white trash snack. If I've ever heard one, a roll, and I've crushed just rolls probably about 10 grand of the can of Coke is what's really disappointing because you're presenting it as if it's a meal with a cup. Yes, dude, I need something to wash it down. Roll with a little butter.
Starting point is 00:25:53 It's like, OK, that's really good. I agree. But you're talking roll with a sweet drink that you're imagining that you're eating a sandwich. I just don't have to meet today. I'm pretending it's Bologna. Love that. Fuck.
Starting point is 00:26:19 What about pets growing up? What was the pet situation over there? We did not have any. We had we it was there was a very, you know, densely populated house and we all had asthma. So it was like we couldn't we wanted I think my little brother really wanted a dog. But we just couldn't we had like a fish that no one that died instantly. But we really never we were not a pets family. And then once we moved out, my mom, me and my brother, when I went to college and one
Starting point is 00:26:43 of my other brothers went to college. She got two cats to replace us. But but now they have those cats and my brothers have cats and a dog in their respective places. But never no pets growing up and I'm not I don't have pets here either. You know that pet guy? How long did that fish tank sit empty in your house after the fish died? Oh, that's a great question. I think it's still there.
Starting point is 00:27:07 I think it's in the corner in my dad's office. Oh, there's a dad's office is big. Yeah, the office was literally like the layout of this fucking house is hysterical because it's like kitchen and then there's like a weird the kitchen. And then there's like to the right of it, there's a raised the rest of the house is raised like four inches for some reason. And then it's like the office and then like where the TV was. And then just a cabinet full of shoes like the shoe cabinet was there.
Starting point is 00:27:43 And it's made no sense. My dad was a carpenter and I think he designed it himself. And it just still to this day is one of the least efficient uses of space. I mean, who's shoes my life just family shoes. But you'd be you'd be where you'd be. That would be where you would go and get your shoes to leave the house. Well, you have your everyday shoes. But again, you have to have to recognize your foley.
Starting point is 00:28:04 We're talking about there's six Greek people that live here. So it's like just just church shoes for the family takes up a whole fucking rack of of, you know, cabinet. And, you know, my mom's shoe, you know what I mean? Like we all played soccer. So the soccer shoes were down there. It was fucking too funny. I know. That's a first.
Starting point is 00:28:24 That's an R.U. Garbage first cabinet and I'm not I'm not doing it justice. How stupidly it's laid out, but it's really bad. There's still a fax machine there for. I'm sitting next to one early fax adopters. And that was the last new technology that graced our our household. We have a microwave. So I was like 14 years old.
Starting point is 00:28:48 Shit, dude. Oh, yeah. I did that when I went to get a I went to get an iPod and the guy convinced me to get a zoom. Remember that it was like my course, the competitor, the big. Yeah, he was like, dude, this is what you want. I'm like, all right. So like, I like rolled up to a party or like high school thinking I was the coolest fucking guy and I was like, get the fuck out of here.
Starting point is 00:29:07 And I really tried to push him like, no, it's better. It's got more RAM or whatever. But yeah, like anyone gives a fuck. Nobody was buying it. Yeah. You know, it's good because it's 80% cheaper. You know, the mark of something popular in capitalism is when it costs more. At least all the money on ads, dude.
Starting point is 00:29:25 Yeah. Trance roots. I'd say go food a little bit. You have to pick one. Fritos, Cheetos or Pringles. Oh, that's tough. It says a lot about you. I'm going to go ahead. Fritos are out.
Starting point is 00:29:42 That's the first cut. Why so? Because it's just they just they are. If I had to snack indefinitely, it's Fritos. But I will say they just don't have the they don't have the highs. Fritos have a very high seal or high floor, low ceiling. Yes. Pringles, I would say very high ceiling. But sometimes you're not in the mood for them.
Starting point is 00:30:06 Cheetos, same thing. Cheetos sometimes get too salty. Yes. Fuck, if I had Cheetos, Cheetos are tough to have with the sandwich, I think. Sure. It's more of an appetizer. Yeah. Well, I could spin what you just said and say that Cheetos stand on their own in a way that some other chips might not. Excellent, you know. Excellent.
Starting point is 00:30:26 That is a fucking review right there. You two just fucking nerding out on Cheetos. Was my favorite thing in the world. So earnestly, just staring at each other. Dude, absolutely. I'm going to have to say in my heart, it's as much as I it's tough, because I love both. I am going to have to go Cheeto, though, personally.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Oh, yeah, I would say there's a middle answer. I think Pringles is the classiest of the. Sure. But you know, I just some I tire of Pringles quickly as much as I enjoy them. I just it's it's not it's not I can't do it indefinitely. You know, you can't you can't put your finger on it. But there is something missing from a Pringle. I just don't know what it is. It might be that that it's too thin.
Starting point is 00:31:15 I'm not sure. And listen, don't get me wrong. I'll crush. I mean, this is not I fucking I fuck with Pringles. Just I would just say emotionally, there's something to me about a Cheeto that resonates a little more than I got it. Yeah, I get it. Frito is definitely the wrong answer there. Frito is tough. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:31:34 Although one of the a delicacy in my high school was the honey Frito, the honey barbecue. Oh, yeah, the twist, the twist, mixed with salt and vinegar chips. And you fucking put them all in a bag. It was it was all the rage at Baltimore Polytechnic Institute in the mid 2000s. Now, is there a specific brand of salt and vinegar
Starting point is 00:31:58 I should be looking for in this in this scenario? Yeah, classic is us. Oh, man, a gentleman. Absolutely. That's a Baltimore thing, too. That's you take pride in our local. I don't know if it is local, but it feels local. Oh, I can't overhand over PA. I say, yeah, but it's PA Baltimore.
Starting point is 00:32:17 For some reason, Baltimore has it's there's a real pride with I think is the crab chip is an Uts product. That we sort of adopted. But yeah, Uts, Uts definitely is like the the the most ubiquitous chip, I would say, in Baltimore. I don't know if it's something else, man. Oh, they're unbelievable. Really is something else.
Starting point is 00:32:37 Incredible. That's silver bag, right? Yeah, it's like a it's like a tan. OK. And there is a there is a competitor. There is a there is a pretender, a usurper to the throne. And that's hers has crab chips. They are not good. I think hers has the silver bag. Hers might be the silver bag.
Starting point is 00:32:56 Yeah, hers. I'm sorry to say, if that's what you're thinking of, you've been you've been lied to your whole life as to what the best crab chip is. It is 100 percent us. You know, we're a big fan of at the foley house for sure. Crab chips. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yeah. We're we're a big family at the Foley house. And this is how garbage we are. Our move, my mom's move was always never individual items.
Starting point is 00:33:20 She would get the Uts party mix, which I don't know if you know about that horse and the two right. Oh, no, it's in like the big white. Oh, yes. Oh, no. Oh, see, I was thinking that. Oh, yeah. You're the party. When you said party mix, I thought the little the little bags of the party mix. But oh, oh, those are great. The little snack packs.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Fucking good night. Yeah. Yes. I love. Well, they had Cheetos in there, too. They had their own little Uts Cheetos in the snack. The snack package from memory, if I can recall, is the pretzel. Put yourself there, Stove. Can you remember? Remember, there's a corn chip. For sure. There's a barbecue corn chip. There's a barbecue corn chip, pretzel.
Starting point is 00:34:01 Yeah. Cheeto. Fuck, I don't I'm blanking on the rest. I think that's just about it. There's a plain corn chip. There's like a plain tortilla chip. Yes. The corn chip. The tortilla chip. That's what I forgot.
Starting point is 00:34:14 And then we pick up some of the Cheeto dust, which was kind of give us a little bit of tang. Yes. And that's what I see. And you're going to sit here and tell me the Cheeto is not the MVP of that fucking mix. You're right. I'll give you that. 100 percent. All right. It doesn't belong in there.
Starting point is 00:34:27 What doesn't belong in there and is always left over at the end of those fucking pretzels. Get them out of there. The pretzel has a place. It doesn't belong in a party mix. Big. I used to go to the parties and just eat the pretzel. People thought I was weird. That is weird. That is weird. But you do you do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:34:45 For for for good to exist in the world, there has to be some evil. And the pretzel. The pretzel is the bad in that to highlight how good everything else is. You know, and sometimes I eat my pretzels first. Feels like a reward. Then be able to have just the Cheetos. So it's like eating your vegetables means it really feels that way. It really feels that way, philosophically.
Starting point is 00:35:07 Oh, I got one. I want to know at the house. All right. Growing up. Was there was there was multiple doors to get in, I would assume, right? Yeah. OK. Were you the family who went in through the front door? Or did you always use the side or back door? Well, I mean, it was the front door only because the back door was just like the alley.
Starting point is 00:35:29 It was just there's multiple doors in the sense that you could in a fire situation get out. But there's really only one main door. Yeah. Yes, I that sounds like a little bit of an economic issue here where a side door to me is the height. I couldn't even imagine having a side door. When I when we went to a family that had a side door, I was like, what the Jesus Christ. I think you don't even use it.
Starting point is 00:35:59 But I think I only knew two families with with that layout growing up and it knocked my socks off every time. The side door into the kitchen is extremely sitcom. Yes. That's a great feeling. That's a great feeling to pop in the side door and the fucking kitchens right there right there. Sneak a snack on your way out. Sneak a snack.
Starting point is 00:36:23 There's cold iced tea in a pitcher in the fucking fridge. Come on. Nothing better. All right. Do you like vanilla coke? Yeah, I do. I do. I'm a cherry question. Cherry, cherry over vanilla. But I like I like you.
Starting point is 00:36:47 You set me loose on one of those freestyle machines. I can have a really nice time. Oh, that's trashy. Throw in the different kind of different kind of flavors in myself. That is garbado. Those things are fucking garbage. There's no way around that, man. Hey, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:37:04 Anybody mixed in Fanta and Sprite and Coke, your trash. I just want I listen, may sometimes you want to diet vanilla cherry borks root beer. You know what I mean? Sometimes that's what you want. Slice a lemon on this, please. Thank you. What I do. Powerade. Nothing wrong with that.
Starting point is 00:37:25 Yeah, why the fuck is. Why is Powerade always in the mix and always throws me off? They're in there in the coca-cola family with a meal. Who showed up to the movie theater out of breath? I get these extra lights. The same way I in my little fat head as a child thought pretzels was vegetables. I bet you there's somebody who thinks, you know what?
Starting point is 00:37:48 I'm not going to have soda today. I'm going to be healthy. I'm having power. Oh, dude, I bet you there's plenty of that going on. Dude, I thought that through college. I was in the cafeteria and they had screaming cold red Gatorade out of the fountain, which is the best hangover. So, dude, I would have dinner.
Starting point is 00:38:06 I would just like have chicken tenders and fucking red Gatorade. And there was this dude who I was friends with who was in shape. He said, you shouldn't really be drinking that much Gatorade if you're not working out. I'm like, I'm at 64 ounces from the day, son. He's 400 pounds, but his electrolytes are through the roof. All right, putting up numbers. Absolutely. All right, Folly, what do you got?
Starting point is 00:38:30 I'm curious to know, Stavros, when was the last time you did either of the following smoked or peed in a pool? Smoked in a pool or peed in a pool? OK, you don't mean smoked in general. Cigarettes, smoke a cigarette in a pool or urinated in a pool. When's the last time you did either one of those? Geez, I'm trying to think when I was in a pool. I mean, whenever I was in a pool, odds are I pissed in it.
Starting point is 00:38:57 Question answered. Let's not let's not sit here. This is this is one of the foundational lives of our society. Yes, that we all know that none of us piss in the pool. And it's like what I'm going to piss in the most the time I'm going to piss in the pool. I don't know what to tell you if it's, you know, maybe not in a public. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:39:15 I'm a public pool, water park, classy resort, fucking ocean. I don't give a fuck. I will lie about that until until I'm dead. Yeah. Yeah. About peeing in the pool. Oh, dude, I guess everywhere. I guess now if I if it's a pool with access to like a tree I can piss on out of print, like out of it's still trash. But it's like, look, I'm I'm I'm conscious trash here.
Starting point is 00:39:45 You're pulling your dick out in public. And I'm going to pull my dick out behind the grill and take a piss. If that's all right with you. And they're like, thank they just everyone tips their cap at me like. Get around applause. Yeah, Bruce. From good stuff, the ocean. I mean, the ocean, that's there's no nothing wrong with that. Well, this comes up.
Starting point is 00:40:07 This has been coming up a lot because I got out of the city for the quarantine. I've been down the shore and all like a lot of my family's down. So we're all on the beach and we're just like, I got to take a piss instead of walking, you know, the 10 blocks. Exactly. Everybody just goes, just run in the water or like, exactly. You'll just walk to the water with like a cousin and just go in and be in here and talk and walk out. You can always tell. You can always tell who's pissing in the ocean.
Starting point is 00:40:29 I'm not trying to hide it, man. I'm the guy standing waist deep. Yeah, you're waist deep. I'm not going under, man. No way. I like the idea of you just sit like feet in, but dick out. Into the ocean. That's that's a power move right there. That's a fucking strong one. That's a power move.
Starting point is 00:40:51 Beautiful. All right. I guess along that line as well. Have you ever been to Ocean City, Maryland? You know, I have, but it was pretty late in life. OK. But yes, that is. I was my family went to Rehoboth once. I will say we're Greek. So the one nice thing we had access to was going to Greece.
Starting point is 00:41:11 Sure. And our family was there. Like the plane was expensive. But once we got there, we didn't really spend any money. Yeah, you're chilling. We stayed for free, you know, all that kind of stuff. Dude, Ocean City, Maryland to us from Philly is like we thought because we went to all into South Jersey beaches. So we're like, yo, every couple of years, everybody's family would be like,
Starting point is 00:41:32 we're going to Ocean City, Maryland, treat yourself. And it's just it's just fucking garbage from like, you know, 200 miles south. That's all that's so funny, because it was the exact opposite in Maryland. It's like, phew, when we treat ourselves, we go to Wildwood. Dude, that's where I've been the best three months. All of quarantine. I've been in Wildwood, New Jersey. That's hysterical. I almost died on a fucking Tilt-A-Whirl in Wildwood as a little kid.
Starting point is 00:41:55 When we went there, there was just some guy operating. It did not give a fuck. And me and my brothers had ridden it. It was like the only good ride and they were all trash. And so we had gotten used to the rhythm of it. Of like, oh, we know when it's, you know, it goes around five times or whatever, spins back and that's when it's over. And this guy just like switched up the rhythm on us.
Starting point is 00:42:14 So we got out of our thing and we're like, time to get back in line. And then the shit comes flying back at us. We have to like die. It was fucking wild. And we had to dive into like a teacup that wasn't ours. It was fucking. They come from the teacups. And then my family went to complain. But they're just like, yeah, I mean, we don't care.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Yeah, man. Who are you going to sue? The fucking the car knees? Like in Wildwood. Dude, they play a little game down there. Yeah, though, some of those rides were sketchy throughout the 90s. Real fucking sketchy. Oh, yeah, brother. On the on the subject of amusement parks, I'm curious,
Starting point is 00:42:50 because geographically, it's close to where you are. Have you or any member of your family ever gone on vacation or been to the facility known as Busch Gardens, Colonial Williamsburg? I believe I went once as a really little kid. But yeah, it was not. We weren't a big theme park family. I will say that. That's not personally not a theme park guy either.
Starting point is 00:43:17 You know, like a roller coaster? Not really. And also theme parks in general, I just I don't know. They're not for me. Yeah. Too expensive lines, a bunch of fucking people. I like I love the idea of them and I love roller coasters. But that's one of those things where like you're you get excited to go, you go. But then at some point while you're while you're there,
Starting point is 00:43:39 you start looking around at the other clientele, if you will. Absolutely. And you're like, you just feel bad. You're like, is that me? Are they exactly the one that they look at me and think I'm trash because I think everyone's. Nothing worse than realizing the people you have something in common with. Yes. You know what I mean? Like when you're when you're that happened to me when I was like, I mean, I'm not a big football guy anymore.
Starting point is 00:44:01 But when I was younger, I was, you know, I would and like when you're in your like early 20s, early to mid 20s, you like go to bars and watching games. And I take it I stopped doing that. And then I came back to visit a friend in Baltimore and she's like, meet us out in Fethill, you know, like whatever, it's like a fucking bar area. And just to be around the kinds of people. I was like, I, this is the worst thing about sports is that the people it bonds me with, like I have something in common with these people that in a few short
Starting point is 00:44:30 months will be defending Ray Rice. You know what I mean? Like these these these these people and me share. We we love the same thing. And that's that is part of what I don't like about a amusement park. I'll probably I'll have to admit that's part of that feeling. Yeah, it's tough. It's tough to see the thing you hate about yourself in other people. You know, amplified.
Starting point is 00:44:51 Yeah, for sure. Yet nothing can turn you off from being a sports fan than another sports fan. Like this guy's a fucking loser. Shut up. It's a fucking relax. You know, they're freaking out. Yeah, lose your fucking. And put your put your child's college tuition on this game and shut the fuck up. You know, sports the way they're meant to be.
Starting point is 00:45:12 And you get fucking overeat and gamble uncontrollably. All right, I got another. This is food heavy. But if you're in a local mall and it's dinner time, you're in the food court. What is your one meal you're going to get? Great fucking question, Kevin Ryan. I am if I'm at the food court, I don't I am going. I don't know if this is probably a regional chain, but it's it's called
Starting point is 00:45:39 Sarko Japan and I'm a teriyaki guy at a food court. I'm I'm a teriyaki guy through and through an aristocrat. In fact, we just you just said it. And now I like I want to that like I wish I was in a mall food court right now. Love Sarko double tear double meat, 99 cents. Damn, you got to do it. You got to do it. The I think you shabby.
Starting point is 00:46:02 The teriyaki chicken is the number one food sample of all time. Exactly. There's never not a guy standing out there with fucking toothpicks and chicken teriyaki. Oh, yeah. And there's never been a time that I or any member of my family have ever walked by that and not fucking dipped in it. 100 percent. And not only this, I go to get that one first. And then, of course, I have all the other samples. Pretend like I'm thinking it over.
Starting point is 00:46:28 Full well knowing I'm ending up at Sarko. I'm ending up getting teriyaki. But I'll get the orange chicken. I'll take a little cut up piece of stromboli. I'll get your fucking hopes up. Yeah, guess what? At the end of the day, I know where I'm going. Let's continue this ruse, shall we, gentlemen?
Starting point is 00:46:45 They're all twigs. That's all lie to ourselves for a little while, shall we? Exactly. My brother. I fucking love that. Growing up when you went swimming, did you wear a t-shirt in the pool, Stavi? You know, there was a brief period of before I was liberated that I was a t-shirt kid, but I think I found. I don't know. I had like a in the middle of my childhood.
Starting point is 00:47:15 I was just like, I'm going to play this up for laughs. I think I was quickly. But sure, I was. I I started as I had a brief tenure as a t-shirt kid, but, you know, it's very liberating when you finally when you when you're finally like, you know what, fuck this. Oh, yeah. Because that's a real because we're all Kevin. Kevin was a chubby kid.
Starting point is 00:47:35 Believe it or not, and that's that's a real tough summer, man. When you start to start, feel that. And you know, like, I get it, put a shirt on, then you're in there in the shirt and you feel weird in the shirt versus getting out. Dude, when you that sucks in the crates, when you get out. Yes. I try I try and live my life as as as almost a beacon of hope for the for the pool kid t-shirt kids in the pools right now.
Starting point is 00:48:01 There you go. I want you to know that you could be fat as hell. Take it off, like just take it off. Take it to celebrate your little celebrate your little titties. And it's not a big deal. It feels so much better to take that off and swim just in the nice water without a fucking Russell fucking graphic tee. Oh, it's a thick one.
Starting point is 00:48:21 Oh, yeah, like a jersey tee or what? Oh, brutal choking at the neck. Yeah. Yeah. White t-shirt. You're giving everybody a white t-shirt contact. It's a tough not good. And I had big nipples as a child. I grew into my nipples.
Starting point is 00:48:37 He's going to be a big kid once he's going to be a big boy once he grows in the nipple is good. Lord, look at the nipples on him. God damn he's going to be a football player. Exactly. All right, I think you only got one more here. What was it, baby? Is your bed currently in the corner of your room?
Starting point is 00:49:00 Oh, no. OK, you've graduated to the middle. I graduated to middle of the room. Yeah, that's a mature step. Why don't you like I felt like an aristocrat when I did it. Maybe a nightstand or something. Oh, yeah, I got a nightstand. I saw I saw, I don't know, a tweet or something where it said
Starting point is 00:49:19 like a bed should have two four two eggs, two forms of egress. And it blew my mind because I was like, what? But then you're fucking at the bottom of the left side. Taking up all the taking up all this extra space. I don't fucking get where is where does your gaming chair go? Where do I put my beanbag? Exactly. I got the black light set up in the corner.
Starting point is 00:49:45 Come on. Right. Right. I'm crowding my fucking I'm crowding my boondock Saints poster. Dude, I'm out of that question to the list. Anybody out there, anybody out there just like the T shirt, if you're listening and your bed is up against the wall, like that, move it into the center. I swear to it instantly changes your outlook and the way you just operate.
Starting point is 00:50:07 Well, it's also like, what do you we want it? We think for like activities and stuff. Like, what are you doing? If you're not 12, you don't need more space in your room, right? You just need a room to get dressed and, you know, put a TV and that's it. The dream is to not have any. I mean, we all live in New York, especially. It's like you live like a fucking animal.
Starting point is 00:50:25 So the dream is for me, all I want is a room. Just a bed, room, bed, fucking nightstand. Throw a throw a fucking humidifier. Like get get give me give me some fucking essential oils. Give me some to my mother fucker. Yeah, I need I need a fucking sanctuary. And that's my dream is to get there. But, you know, for the time being, you know, because as in New York,
Starting point is 00:50:50 as we live in our room, so you like your room is your house. You know, right? In your room, you watch TV, you fuck, you sleep. You do everything. Lavender scented pillows all day. That's nice. Real nice. I love lavender, baby. Oh, put your right to sleep.
Starting point is 00:51:07 All right. You got one more. I got two more. Just we're going to let you get out of here. But I feel like the that the squad would be upset if I didn't ask you these two. Stay or two big ones. These are too big. Are you alive? You were definitely one of the most requested guests we've had.
Starting point is 00:51:23 One hundred percent. Let's hear it. Let's hear it, baby. Growing up. Would you ever have milk with dinner? Were you served milk with dinner? Fuck, no. Wow. Absolutely not. That's a fucking gentleman, dog.
Starting point is 00:51:37 That's that's I can't even. Why? That's just to me. I don't know what is your explanation of that? Milk is for cereal or it is for dessert. And I am not the I don't want to hear anything else. It is not a savory. You I do not want anything savory when it comes to milk, with the exception of like a cream of crab soup or a clam chowder.
Starting point is 00:51:58 But that's fucking class. OK, wait, you mean you're watching down meatloaf with fucking milk? Yes. Fucked. No, mindfully, you're out of your fucking mind. Holy, if it was socially acceptable, they would have it at restaurants for you. You've never ordered flaminion and a fucking glass of two percent. It's it's discussed. I'm I'm honestly, I can't even that that question makes me mad.
Starting point is 00:52:22 I'm mad at you. No, I feel racist feel towards you. I feel racist feel towards people of color towards you right now, fully. No milk and spaghetti. Oh, are you out of your fucking mind? Just like a regular person. Why do you want more dairy? This is fucked up, dude.
Starting point is 00:52:42 I hate that question. You ask me the next one. Pissed off. Oh, dude, so many people's favorite meal is milk and spaghetti. It's crazy fucked up. It's give me a lift. I'm about to I'm about to do a little little fucking genocide right now. I'm getting them all canceled.
Starting point is 00:53:04 They're about to get they're about to get a fucking they're about to get a letter in the mail for free train ride. I gotta say, man, I'm fucking stunned by your answer. I feel betrayed as well. No, I can't do that. That's trash, dude. It's fucked up. I hate that.
Starting point is 00:53:21 All right. The last question that I'll ask you, and I think I know which way you're going to lean is a ketchup and syrup after you open a bottle of ketchup. Where does it reside in the refrigerator or in the cabinet? Ketchup in the fridge. Excellent. And after you open a bottle of maple syrup, where does that reside? Huh?
Starting point is 00:53:43 Hmm. Interesting. I guess I don't I I I I don't want to pretend like I have because I came on real strong about the milk. I can't be I can't sit here and pretend I have strong feelings about the maple syrup. Okay, I've had it both ways growing up and I guess now that I think about it, I kind of like how how fucking thick it gets in the fridge.
Starting point is 00:54:04 But currently my syrup is in the is not is in the cabinet. Yes. And it's more of a it's more of a because I don't really eat syrup, you know, like that. So it's like, in fact, I don't even think I have syrup. It's like an old roommate went to Canada and left like some Canadian, like some good shit. So I just kept it and I have yet to use it.
Starting point is 00:54:28 And when I do use it, it'll be a special day. But right now it's sealed. It's sealed in the cabinet. So I don't want to sit here and lie to you and say that I'm very good. But if it's the real stuff, when you open it up, you got to keep that stuff. You got to keep that stuff cold. The good stuff you got to keep cold. But yes, it's good to mine is a Mrs. Butterworth.
Starting point is 00:54:45 Oh, yeah, let me tell you something about the good stuff. Because I'm a child that grew up on fucking Mrs. Butterworth and all that crap. And I remember once or twice, my mom coming back from a trip and her breaking out the real stuff. And I was like, get this shit out of my fucking face. But now as an adult, right, real maple syrup fucking trip. Man, that is fucking that.
Starting point is 00:55:09 I agree. And I agree that it has to go in the fridge because it's a little runnier than the like high fructose shit. And I personally, I think there's something in your heart that says I want that. You know, I want I want it thick. So I'm you're going to be over on on Team Fridge. OK, no, for for for maple syrup, for regular maple for regular syrup, it's cabinet. Gotcha. Yeah. I don't give a fuck what I can't pretend I care one way or the other.
Starting point is 00:55:37 I got one, too, before this is another this is another big one. Yeah, hit me, hit me. Butter. Oh, where do you keep the butter? Is it on the counter or is it on the fridge? Fridge. Thank you. Stop Rose, you think you know a guy? You meet this guy, great guy, you like him. Fridge, fridge, for sure. Dude, there's animals that just keep the butter out on the on the cabinet.
Starting point is 00:56:01 I listen, I've heard of that. And I guess that it people say it doesn't go bad or whatever. But it's like, why take the risk? What are you doing, dairy? Yeah, dairy. It's dairy. It's dairy. I agree with you. Yes. I agree with 100 percent. I just gave you a couple of points in my book. Well, thank God. That in the milk for dinner, buddy.
Starting point is 00:56:19 This guy could be president. And I can't do that. That's it. It gave them points to be in class. But I got to tell you, you don't you don't fucking you don't rise to the top without hurting people and you hurt me, I'll be honest with you. I'm hurt. I'm sorry, man. You that a little stuffy wasn't drinking a big glass of milk and you did that to yourself. You haven't got to talk about his butter.
Starting point is 00:56:43 His butter was on the counter with a nice fresh roll, spreading nicely. Yeah, the spreading is the one place people get me on that. And I have left it out in the past and I've enjoyed the spread. But there's just some about it. I need to have it in the fucking fridge. I've come to terms with it. I never had it. But if you have it, it can it's got to sleep in the fridge. If you take it out in the morning and keep it on the counter, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:57:10 See, to me, that's more fucked up. The constant temperature shifts. I don't agree with it, but I can co-sign that I can at least wrap my head around. I think you got to go one way or the other in the fridge. I don't know. Yeah, I'm but I'm fridge all day. And maybe this is a fight. This is a this is also a thing where the kinds of families that are drinking milk or going through butter, it doesn't have time to go back.
Starting point is 00:57:30 It doesn't have time to get bacteria on it. Foley's fucking sitting down, having a fucking rib eye and taking a spoonful of butter in his in his milk. And like it's Nesquik and washing and washing down lasagna with it. Oh, lasagna and milk. Come on. Horrific. What you're saying is horrific. But anyway, fellows, I actually have to run kind of soon.
Starting point is 00:57:54 So now we're here now, ladies and gentlemen, Stavros Halkiest. Stav, I got to say, people might fucking fight me on this or whatever. Or say that we're that, you know, we're just being I'm class all the way. Class. Oh, thank you. Trash. What are you talking about? Garbaggio. Come on. I agree. And you know what? I think that's this is exactly this is the duality of who I am. Yes. One person thinks I'm class.
Starting point is 00:58:17 The other person thinks I'm trash and they're both right. And I think that's I think that's what it is. I'm the swirl, baby. Is there anything you want to you want the folks to know before you get out of here? Anything coming up? No, not really. I mean, no, no dates, obviously.
