and there's a badminton net
and everybody's like yo come on Ben sit down
have a drink and I'm like just a second
and I pass all of them and they're like where is he going
oh my god where is he what is going on
I have like a killer instinct look in my eye. And I walk right to the
backyard where there's like two older, like an older couple playing badminton. And I just start
taking off my shoes and socks. And I go to, I go to like the, the older guy, he's like 45.
And I don't say anything. And I just rip the tennis racket out of his hand. He's like, ah!
I go, go over there with your wife.
He's like, okay.
And they get in, like, doubles position.
And all the guys that I pass on the way there are like, Ben, what are you doing, man?
Get back over here.
Explain yourself.
What are you doing?
And this is all I say. People don't really understand how obsessed I am with winning.
I don't care about anything else.
Then I whisper into the shell cock,
just me and you
all
day long.
He looks back at me
and goes, okay.
And I throw it in the air and right when it,
right when it touches the strings on my badminton racket,
that's me screaming.
Every time I return a serve. Okay.
Shout 138.

Remember to follow on Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, Cameo.
Get a Christmas Cameo.
Had a couple last week, and they were really cool.
I got good reviews.
It's just like getting an A plus on a test baby and this girl uh this girl sent me like her friend's reaction that the cameo is for and
it was like it was such like a almost cried but she was happy and it was like yes remember to
tell your homies and homegirls about the podcast.

There's no way Chuck E. Cheese
is open right now, is it?
I hate how, like,
disgusting and dirty. Dude, Chuck E. Cheese
tubes are COVID.
Tubes. Chuck E. Cheese's tubes
are so dirty.
But I used to love
places like that when I was a kid.
Any place that had a tube I could crawl in.
I was like, what is that place?
Oh my god, I was addicted.
McDonald's Play Place?
Low key was a bank. Dude, McDonald's
as a kid?
Who doesn't want to go?
Happy Meals and those tubes
and then you just get in that like there's
literally a fighting octagon in there like what more could you want as a kid honestly
cheeseburgers fries toys fights that's my whole life and i was a kid just fighting people
dude how many times i cried in there how many times I cried in there? How many times I cried
in the McDonald's play place? Oh my God. My mom just let me run wild in there too.
Like I'd always like peek through like one of those weird like
bubble windows to see if my mom was looking. She was never there. I was like, yes.
How did I not just break my legs
Every time
Chick-fil-a's play place is kind of whack
You gotta admit
They're like we want the kids to have fun
But let's do it in a really weird
Religious way
Ew
But yeah
Chuck E. Cheese on Christmas Eve
That's a pretty good one What did I. Cheese on Christmas Eve, that's a pretty good one.
What did I always do on Christmas Eve?
There was something.
What did my family do on Christmas Eve?
There's always a goddamn fire because my dad's like literally addicted to fires.
Anything.
Anything.
Any event.
Yeah, it's like coffee for me.
Anytime I do anything, I'm like, I better get a coffee
before that.
He's like, I gotta check my email,
better make a fire.
Gotta fold my socks, better
better put a couple
logs in. Dude, the amount of times my dad
burnt his fucking hand
making a fire.
And I'd always laugh my ass off and he'd be like, what? And I'd be like, you just burnt your fucking hand making a fire and i'd always laugh my ass off and he'd be like what
and i'd be like you just burnt your fucking hand that's hilarious dude i hate it i that's the main
reason i got in trouble just for laughing at people like if you laugh if you get mad at someone When another person, like, falls down.
I hate you.
Dude, when people fall down, why is that the funniest thing of all time?
Undefeated, 100% laughing.
Even if it's not funny and you're like, oh, like one of those falls.
Like two hours later, you're like oh like one of those falls like two hours later you're still like when people fell out of their chairs in school dude oh my i would literally pay people to fall
out of their chairs because it was so funny and be like yo seven minutes in you ready they'd be
like yeah i could slip on like a five dollar bill i'd'd be like, let's do this Hey, look at me
Let's do this
Like a weird bet
Seriously, that's so funny when people fall
What were we talking about?
Falling
What did I
Oh, my dad made a fire and he burned his hand
Yeah, every single time he'd be making a fire, like, I'd just hear,
And he'd do, like, a backwards somersault, like, on the ground.
I'd be like, what the fuck? I've never seen him do that before.
He must have really hurt it this time.
Hey, B, I'm gonna make a fire!
Hey, B, I'm gonna make a fire!
Two minutes later. AAH! Or he'd like make me talk
about the fire he made. How weird is that? Dude he'd be like how about that fire look at that fire
is it roaring or what? I'd be like yeah it's pretty good dad like literally the first man on earth can do that, but cool. You're so impressive.
How about that fire?
Is it roaring or what?
I'm like, actually a caveman can do that.
So slap him on the back twice.
Keep working hard, big guy.
Oh, shit. What do I do on Christmas Eve god damn it um there was something I did
no there wasn't there wasn't ever for a minute my mom was like taking me and my friends out to
like a nice restaurant on Christmas Eve which was so weird or maybe it was just around Christmas
I was like mom since when do you have like 30 bucks to spend?
It was always
like kind of a dope restaurant. I was like,
wait a minute. Since when do you have any
money?
A couple years ago, you wouldn't even buy me a piece
of gum at Meijer in the quarter machine.
Now we're going to Bonefish Grill with six of my
jackass friends.
Merry Christmas
to you.
But we'd go and she'd be like, uh-uh, no appetizers.
We'd be like, okay, well.
Can we get dessert?
Just one thing. I'd be like, I don't think this is
really a Christmas dinner.
I know they hate when I
talk about it, but my parents are cheap. It's funny
though.
I think my parents are so cheap
growing up, that's why I spend money
recklessly now.
Because my parents made me think we only had like
$60 growing up, so now I'm like,
yeah, I'll buy it.
How much? I don't care.
Ugh.
Okay. Let's keep going
Weirdest family Christmas traditions all day J

Like the old ones
Every single year of my life
That is so weird the old ones

like twice i've seen like two movies and they're both planet of the apes i had no idea what was
going on in either one i was just like oh. Like one of my friends really wanted to see it. And like me and Chiller, like,
we're like, we'll just go for some reason. I think he was like, I'll pay. We're like, all right.
Like not into the movie at all. You ever go to a movie and you're just not into it? Oh,
it sucks. That'll make you not want to go to the movie theater ever again. When you're like,
I don't really want to go to this movie every time I go to the movies

Weird Christmas family traditions.
So us kids are all in our 20s.
Sister is almost 30.
We have to go to the rents in our christmas pjs and line up in the back hallway and wait for my dad to say ho ho ho to go into the
living room my brother-in-law included it was a lot more fun as children thought it would be done
with by now i don't know if I could.
I'm really glad I don't have one of those.
Like Christmas morning type shit.
It was like free for all.
Like me and my sisters had to just shut the fuck up until it was like 6 a.m. on Christmas.
Then it was like, all right, let him loose.
Then we go downstairs like a pack of dogs.
And it was like, all right, let him loose.
And we go downstairs like a pack of dogs. Roar, roar, roar, roar, roar, roar, roar, roar, roar, roar, roar, roar, roar, roar.
Like at 5.59, we're like.
And 6 o'clock, we do.
All down the stairs and shit.
Actually, that was just me and my younger of the two sisters.
My oldest sister like Despises Christmas
Everybody's got that person in their family
That just does not give a fuck about Christmas
That was my oldest sister
We'd be having the time of my life
Like seriously I'd be like crying tears of joy
Like I can't believe it
Looking at my parents after I opened something
I'd be like yes we know
Now just be good
I'd be like oh my, we know. Now just be good. And I'd be like, oh my God, Santa.
My sister would be upstairs.
Seriously, if I tried to wake my sister up, she'd be like.
I'd be like, okay, I'll come back in 15 minutes.
Hey Tony, it's Christmas.
It's Christmas.
Time to wake up.
Time to wake up. Oh my God. god and I do that thing to her eye you ever like when you're a kid you like do something weird to wake somebody up
I'd always open their eyes and I said I can vividly remember this Christmas morning I was
like Tony it's Christmas and I'd open her eye she didn't give a fuck about Christmas so bad. She was sleeping so hard, I couldn't even see her pupils.
She was so dead asleep on Christmas morning.
Her eyes were rolled so back into her head.
I lifted her eyelid up and it was just all white like a fucking zombie.
Oh, she was dead on Christmas morning.
Didn't give a shit.
I didn't even blink. waiting the night before Christmas.
But yeah, that was bad.
I always wake people up like even now.
I'm that guy that's like when it's not even close to December,
I'll still like shake somebody, wake them up and be like,
Hey, come on.
It's Christmas.
The presents are down there.
And they'll be like, what?
And I'll be like, it's fucking July.
Yeah, but that's me.
Everybody has so much fun, like, growing up and doing Christmas stuff.
I was sad, like, when that started to, like, phase out.
Like, my friends were, like, kind of getting over Christmas.
I was like, god damn, can't you guys just believe?
They'd be like, you're not doing anything on Christmas Eve, dude. Come on, you pussy. I'd
be like, can you guys just believe in Santa real quick? Just two days. Just give me one night of
believing in Santa. That's all. And then I'll fucking go out. Pussy. I was like, I just want
to do my reindeer dance with my sister in the front yard and sprinkle reindeer food for blitz in all over the yard. But you guys want to go to Kilroy's?
Okay. What time are we going? I'm just kidding. Yeah. But like recently we have the most craziest
Christmas. Cause I think it's like, we do it at my dad's house and like, it wouldn't fly if my mom
was there, obviously. Like we would never do this at my mom's my mom's like more of like a fancy like fancy Christmas person because my grandma her mom my mom's mom was like the bougiest
lady of all time and she was so dope so on Christmas morning we'd like have like brunch
and like open presents presents were even bougie we didn't get like cool presents at my grandma's
she was like too fancy for that so we'd open presents, listen to Frank Sinatra and stuff in the background.
It'd just be like...
But when you're at your home, family Christmas, it's kind of more of a, like, an F around, kind of.
You're just like, oh!
You can, like, be yourself a little more.
You know, not be yourself, but you can just, like, wild out a little more.
But when you're at, like, your grandma's, you gotta be, like, a little more reserved.
Like, yeah, I've had Christmas before, but at, like, your house, you're like, oh!
See that?
Your family's like, okay.
But now, when we open presents at my dad's now, it's this.
Like, turn on the present music.
My dad, like, does, like, a happy ass, like, little trot to the, like, sound system that we have from, like, 1994 in the living room.
And it's just this.
Turns around.
Merry Christmas, everybody!
Who's up first?
Who wants to go first?
How come nobody ever
wants to go first when you're opening
up presents?
I'm like, I'll do it.
You gotta, like, make people open them.
Like, our presents now are, like, not even that cool.
They're just, like, a bunch of, like, dairy-free protein bars in a box.
What'd you get?
I got a shirt that I sent you on the internet two weeks ago.
Thanks.
How Christmas is when you're not a kid anymore.
Just shit you already know you're gonna get.
And even if there is a surprise on Christmas morning, you're like,
you're like, not that excited about it.
Yeah, but that's our Christmas, pretty much.
Alright, let's
keep going.
Kel's Carol
underscore weird family
Christmas traditions
we're all over 30 and we still get
presents from Santa
and separate presents that are from our parents
I just like threw up during that
but yeah
we always think it's funny
to call each other different names
so like
instead of saying like
to Benny from Santa it'll say like to Chris from Melanie
and we'll just be like what the fuck who's like like instead of putting like someone's actual
name on a present like I'm definitely putting like from Ethan like that's so stupid. To Chrissy from Ethan.
Definitely.
Instead of their real names.
Real names are so cringy.
Okay.
Weirdest family Christmas traditions, Jamie Brown photo.
My ex's family used to give each other a box of their favorite Pop-Tarts every Christmas morning.
Holy shit. That's pretty cool. That's a cool little tradition. Not that I like Pop-Tarts every Christmas morning. Holy shit.
That's pretty cool.
That's a cool little tradition.
Not that I like Pop-Tarts or anything.
It'd probably be cooler if I didn't eat Pop-Tarts or think about Pop-Torts.
Pop-Torts.
It's like a judicial law firm.
If a lawyer rented out a mall space
by Macy's where nobody goes it'd be called Pop Torts
Okay I'll shut up
But
Holy shit

Weirdest family Christmas traditions.
My parents hid an ornament that's in the shape of a pickle in the tree,
and the first child to find it gets an extra gift.
Half the time, the tree ends up on the ground
because of us fighting each other
to find it i heard about this tradition god damn imagine doing that with a real christmas tree just
getting stabbed and shit by those needles dude my dad like fought for us to have a real tree of
course he did like the oldest thing of all time he's like we have to it's just not right to have
a plastic thing in our house i like the way the tree smells anyway i was like go build a fire bro you're a literal fucking cave

I want ribs for dinner
Stupid Yep, real trees, bro. Are you serious dude one time? This is how like Italian my dad is, you know
I always talk about how my dad, like, loves taking stuff back.
He, like, gets off to taking stuff back.
Like, one time, I swear to God, he took back our Christmas tree.
Like, we, like, put, like, lights and, like, decorations on it and stuff.
One time, and we were like, Dad, come downstairs.
Look at it. Like, we were like, dad, come downstairs. Look at it.
Like we like hear him coming downstairs.
We're all looking at each other like, yes, yes.
Oh my God.
Yes.
And he just like got to the bottom of the stairs and look the tree up and down.
And it was like, get in the car.
Like, get in the car.
Dude, we literally put the tree back in the twine that it came in and took it back to the store because there was a dent in it that he didn't see.
Dude, us picking out Christmas trees was like,
I swear to God, we went to every Christmas tree lot in the city.
We might have spent 17 hours just going to Ace Hardware
looking for Christmas trees.
And then it'd get kind of late and we'd be like,
that's the one.
Every year we'd somehow find one.
If I did that now, if I had to find a Christmas tree now,
I'd be like, we're not going to fucking find one.
They all suck.
But every year I had so much hope when I was a kid.
I was like, yes, that's the one. And
every year I was like, it's perfect. It's better than last year. If I did that today, I'd be like,
Oh God, it's a piece of shit, but we're going to have to roll with it. That's what we get for
going on December 24th. Right? God. All right. Indigenous tyranny. Weirdest Christmas family traditions.
We have to sit on the stairs and sing a Christmas song also before we can open our presents.
It's not quite the same now that we're adults.
But my brother once made up his own song and hand actions.
It was hilarious.
Yeah, that's tight.
Dude, somebody always pops off on Christmas and does something funny.
Like, so there's always a funny moment on Christmas.
Like, somebody always, like, takes the floor and you're like,
Oh, that was the Christmas line.
One time, uh...
I got these shoes from the Nike outlet.
Like, sometimes...
My dad will just buy us shit for Christmas that, like, we don't really, like...
If it's, like, an I guess present, present like i don't know if i really want it like somehow it'll be under the tree for christmas that's like my dad's shit he's like that's what
christmas is for getting stuff that you're not real sure about but you end up loving it i'm like
dad are you like the fucking santa spokesman but like i had had we went to the Nike outlet like
just mid-December
one year and I was like yeah I like those shoes.
I tried them on but I was like I don't really know
if I like need them though.
Like low-key planting a seed for
them and I unboxed them on Christmas
and we played this song.
Right when I put them on my feet it was this.
Like I didn't really know what I was doing but this song was on the background and like my sisters looked at me and they were like like with their eyes and their blank faces
they were like go on and my dad was like kind of laughing so I was like oh shit I gotta live up to this
So I literally put these shoes on while this song was like magically on in the background somehow
And just did this I danced for like 10 minutes
And my dad thought it was the funniest thing
Best decision of my life
I was like I'll do anything for my dad to smile on Christmas
Why is he like in such a bad mood
But every year he's like hey
Christmas dance remember
Like every time I'm like yes dad I fucking remember
Hey
Christmas dance every time this is on
But yeah
Somebody always has a moment on Christmas.

Eating takeout Chinese food every Christmas Eve and inevitably sitting on the toilet all Christmas Day.
God, this sucks.
We've been doing it for about eight years now because my mom hates cooking
big meals for my family. That's one of those veteran moms. Like when you're a young mom,

You'd be so good.
You played and you're like, no.
I'm like, what's in it for me?

for a guy that's like oh like over age 22 is like driving to a flag football game when it's dark out
like trying to pump himself up to like some like pop smoke or something like actual real cool music
and he's going to a flag football game. She want to fall with a whoa.
Like pulling up in the parking lot with your music kind of loud,
like I'm ready to play.
That's so lame.
In the car parking lot.
Putting your cleats on outside your door, but you're still sitting in your car.
Ben, you're late, bro.
We're running routes out here.
Oh, shit, bro.

Dude, my last year of college football, I was like, I'm too old to do this.
I literally thought that every game.
That has got to be the worst thing to think before a game.
Before every single actual real rivalry games.
Number one in the country, number two in the country.
I was like, I'm too old for this shit.
Oh my god, that's so bad.
Hashtag is on my wish list.
One thing on my wish list.
For some reason, I want like a banging TV this year.
Like one of those curved joints with like the lights behind it.
Looks like an EDM party when you're looking through the windows,
but like on the inside you're really just watching like Fox Sports Network Pacers games.
And I'm Chris Denary.
But from the outside it's like. Oh, dude, they're having a party in there.
Walk inside.
They give it to Turner in the post.
And he turns around and lays it in for two.
Da-na-na-na-na-na! and he turns around and lays it in for two yep that's why I want a TV

I really am like my first instinct when somebody farts is to just be like,
I'm going to pretend like it never happened.
I'm your guy.
I'm like your DL guy for farts.
Like if you ever need to fart, like you can do it around me and I won't tell people.
Like I'm your fart plug.
Like if you need to fart, you can fart around me.
Also, like if you need to tag people in giveaways, you know, and like Instagram accounts are like, Hey, tag four people. I'll
be one of those four. I'll I'm that kind of friend. You know what I mean? That's fine. You
can tag me in all of them. I get like 75 comments on Instagram. I'm like, Oh, something, one of my videos blew up. It's just like 75
comments on like charcuterie giveaways. I'm like, fuck. No, but seriously, I'm your guy.
If you need to tag people and stuff, and if you need to fart, you can chill with me, bro.
