What happened to Ching-a-ling Lee?
Nobody even remembers him except for me.
I felt like me and like only 13 other people listened to Ching-a-ling.
He had like a number one hit for like 20 weeks.
I was like, yeah, only I knew about him. What do you know about him?
Straight player, baby.
Ching-a-ling was tight. Ching- only I knew about him. What do you know about him? Straight player, baby. Chingy was tight.

Shout 106 Espresso Pod.
I'm Ben Polizzi.
Chilling.
I'm just sitting in the studio.
So quarantine's pretty much over, right?
We're just busting it open now.
So many people outside today.
Yeah, it's over.
I'm going to look back at quarantine and be like, what was I on?
This whole time, what was I doing?
Seriously, what were I doing? Seriously, what were I...
Just walking around,
thinking of things that I should be doing
and going...
Those blue angels flew over the sky
just like a minute ago.
Okay.
What are we supposed to do with those
Like five
Like fighter jets that are in the movie
Top Gun
Imagine being like
Yes
Let's go
Yes
They're here
That just happened
I didn't know how to react
I was like sweet
And Blue Angels Sounds like the name of a minor league baseball team Sorry That just happened. I didn't know how to react. I was like, sweet.
And Blue Angels sounds like the name of a minor league baseball team.
Sorry.
And it's free hot dog night.
But yeah, quarantine.
It's a wrap, right?
Man, just when I was starting to get some things together And then quarantine hits
And bye
Bye good habits
Pizza man's back
Pizza and wine guys here
Hi
Oh, you're not going to do anything for 50 days?
Oh, pizza and wine guys here
To be installed in your brain
Yeah Oh, I don't know to be installed in your brain?
Yeah.
Oh, I don't know, man.
I tweeted that or I put out that video.
I don't even know how I thought about this,
but the people that do the thing with their eyes when they flip their eyelids inside out.
And I made the mistake of being like,
hey, if you did that and you're saying you did that,
prove it.
Let's see.
Prove it.
See if you still got it.
I never even tried that.
I bet I can do it, but I'm just,
I never wanted to try
because I probably would have like popped my eyeball out.
But I made the mistake of telling people to prove it,
and I got all these DMs and tweets and stuff
of the weirdest people with their eyes that looked like Satan.
But there was always one kid.
How did anyone figure that out?
How did one kid just be like, Mom, look.
God, it was always the weirdest kid that did that,
who had longer hair. And you're like, huh? look. God, it was always the weirdest kid that did that who had like longer hair.
And you're like, huh?
He didn't like do anything at recess.
He didn't like play any of the like, you know, everybody's like doing something at recess.
Kickball, there's like 30 people doing that.
There's like 50 people on the playground.
He was just one of the kids that was just like individually like playing his own game
and like twist, like twirling around.
But he didn't care at the same time.
He's like, yeah, whatever.
Just doing me.
I'm doing me.
I'm doing me.
The eye thing and the clover tongue.
When you could do the clover tongue in elementary school, it was always girls
that were like, can you?
I can, can you?
I canoe, can you canoe too?
I still can't.
I can roll my tongue up
like one of those combos, like
gas station snacks, but that's it.
I'd always be like this, right?
I've got like no tongue
mobility. Now we're talking sexy. No, but my tongue's like the size of like a paper clip.
Seriously. Can you touch your tongue to your nose? I'm like, uh, yeah, sure. It like hits my top lip
and I'm like, is that it? My sister has like the longest tongue
On seriously the planet
It's the weirdest thing
And she like flexes it
Like something will happen
And instead of being like
Whoa she'll be like
Anyway
It's the podcast where all he does
Is talk about his family.
Yeah, the clover thing.
Clover tongue.
People still kind of do that.
You can't do that.
No, Jason from work.
I felt like everybody could.
What about people that couldn't snap?
I just can't.
Who can't snap? I just can't. Who can't snap?
If you can't snap, my dog can snap.
I just can't.
And when they try their, I was like,
they move their hand real fast like they're throwing something.
It's like, that's not it.
It's not part of it, Ashley, from work.
Okay, I don't care anyway so cops huh cops are uh in the news i was thinking about cops like
why would i've got some friends that are cops so props i could never just want to be, how could you want to be a cop?
Everybody automatically hates you all the time.
Especially now.
But everybody automatically is like, oh God, Jesus Christ, this guy.
Always the same cop walk.
I'm just honest to cops.
I haven't got a ticket in a hot minute.
And now that I said that, I probably will.
You guys still knock on wood?
I always do.
I'm like, every time I say something like that, I'm like, hold on, bro.
Right in the middle of a story.
Hold on, dog.
Like go to a tree.
What were you saying?
Every time a cop like pulls me over I'm just completely
honest with him
and I think it like
makes it help
this one time
I got
it was like
I was on my way
to work super early
when I worked like
nine to five
I would just
they were like
yeah you can
as long as you're working
like this many hours a day
and you're getting
all your stuff done
you can come in
whenever you want you can come in at midnight and work till 7 a.m i was like hmm or eight or
whatever i can't remember how long we had to be there but so i would go in i would literally wake
up as soon as possible and go in i would try to get there at six o'clock every morning
to get there at six o'clock every morning and I'd be like half asleep on the way there whoops but I'd get there and no one would be there thank god so I'd try to get there I'd try to get there
right at six it was just like my goal every day and it was one time I was like I was like halfway
there and it was 5 55 and I was like so I was like I was going hard on my way to work like
like fast but I didn't mean it really I was just like in the zone you ever in the car
listen to a song and it's you're like you look down you're going like 78 miles per hour
that's what I was doing and I saw I saw cop lights behind me and I was like,
Oh shit.
Wow.
This is really happening.
Like I,
like every time I get pulled over,
I'm like,
damn,
I know exactly what I'm doing,
but I wonder if I did anything else.
Like,
I wonder if my license plates fucked up.
That's like my biggest fear.
Like you're speeding and your license plates from 1981.
Like, Oh, okay. like my biggest fear like you're speeding and your license plates from 1981 like okay that's something i'll never understand is the renewal of license plates like i don't know
can i just drive but this cop pulled me over and he's like
you know how fast you're going i was like uh not exactly but pretty fast he's like what's the hurry
i was like honestly i'm just trying to get to work and like i was listening to a pretty good song
and he i think he kind of laughed a little bit because he was feeling me
and he was like okay all right and he brought like my license and all that stuff back to his car
and i hit that part of the cop process is so annoying.
Because like, you know, they already know what they're going to do to you.
But they're just like, a lot of deal.
Like, what are they even doing in their car on that stupid screen?
Like, can it just look like a regular computer for once?
Why does it always have to look like the Matrix, you know?
Like a black screen with like green numbers all over it.
Just have YouTube up, because we know you do.
What's on my record?
Is that what they're looking at?
They're on your Instagram?
Does this guy have any weightlifting pics?
No? Okay.
He's good.
So he did all that, and I was just waiting for him.
He's like, all right, man.

And it always has that clear tape in it.
It's like...
And you can never find the end.
I've spent half my life looking for that part of the tape.
Where I'm just like...
How come it tricks you?
There's four different parts on the clear tape where you're like, that's it.
That's not it.
How's that not it?
on the clear tape where you're like, that's it.
No, that's not it.
How's that not it?
Then you finally find the edge and you get it and you're like, yes,
and you try to peel it and it tears it in half or it tears like a sliver off.
You're like, what?

brains, we're like, Oh, we're going to put a, we're going to put a sprinkler under the trampoline
and put, put a dish soap all over the top of it. Like we'd never even talked about it in our lives we just all went outside and started doing it like right like right when we woke up and

So weird. We used to, in high school,

I was like, this is it guy.
Oh, I can't believe I'm talking about this.
It's like, bro, but you got to get it.
And I was just the only guy that would be like, all right.
Turn around.
We'll make this quick.
I can't be having my boys with Zs on their shoulder blades, bro.
Especially at pool parties.
So come here.
So, guy.
I know my mom's throwing up right now because I just said that but
sorry

I'll pee your Z's dog
my dad was always that weird guy
that was like if you have a zit on your face
don't touch it
it'll make it worse
I'm like I'm not walking around with a volcano above my eyebrow don't touch it. It'll make it worse. I'm like, I'm not walking around with a
volcano above my eyebrow.
Don't touch it.
Right when he leaves, I'm like,
okay, car mirror and
this is the grossest thing
I've ever talked about, but
I know you guys feel me.
Hashtag.
Nah, let's do days.
Forget it.
I'm over it.
Wednesday.
National Crouton Day.
I loved croutons up until I was like 13.
And I just started eating them like very recently with
Olive Garden salads. Olive Garden salads, by the way, I think Olive Garden salads are the best
salads. Said it and I meant it. I said it in a minute. Olive Garden dressing.
But yeah, I smash up the croutons in the plastic little package and put it on there
just like it's dust but one time i uh this is a gross podcast but one time i threw up
and it was a bunch of stuff i ate earlier and i had croutons earlier and my three you know how
you smell your throw up and you're like,
that's what got me sick?
And the thing it smells like the most, you're like, that's what it was.
That's what I do anyway.
And it smelled like croutons.
So for 10 years I was like, no, I'm not eating croutons.
Throwing up has to be the weirdest action of all time.
What the hell?
Immediately full body sweat.
God, that's the weirdest thing.
I feel like when I'm throwing up, it's like a fire hose and I'm just yelling. I yell, throw up. I'm not like,
when I throw up, I'm like, and everybody on earth can hear it.
One time I was in a, oh my God.
One time I was in a taxi.
That sounds so stupid.
One time I was in a fucking taxi.
Oh my God.
And every time, no matter what, if I drink like, if I have like a sip of an alcoholic
drink and get in a car, I'm like.
So we're getting a ride home from just going out and stuff in a taxi and i always forget too when i drink i'm like every i always forget that right when
i get in the car i'm gonna puke like i get super car sick and of course I forget and we get in the car and we're with like girls and
like it hasn't hit me and then we start moving a little bit and I'm like holy shit
it's so weird that moment when you know you're gonna throw up it's hard to like announce it
you know what I mean you're like hey uh like you're trying to be like polite about
stuff coming out of your face?
Hey, can you slow down?
And the driver has no idea.
Oh, my God.
So I had to ask the driver, or I had to low-key announce it in the car.
I was like, hey, I think I'm going to throw up.
I had to say it as clear as possible like I was like presenting a thesis so
hi I opened I cracked the door cuz thrown up out a window like good good
luck dude I cracked the door and I like of course I tried to make it like sexy I
to make it like sexy. I tried to make it like smooth. Oh, I was like, like the, the try to be sexy while throwing up. I swear to God, or try to be smooth with it. I was like,
what? What? What? I was like, and then I was just like, okay, I think I'm good.
And like, I couldn't do it again.
So I was like, I just got to suck it up.
Like, I'm just going to hold my breath or something for the next like seven minutes
on the way to whoever's house we were going to.
Obviously we're going to Joe King's house, but I didn't want to reference him for the 97th time uh yeah but that's how it goes down in the car growing up throwing up growing up
throwing up that's the name of my new comedy special growing up throwing up god that probably
will be that That's embarrassing.
I always wanted to throw up in the sink.
Like, I always tried to on the low.
And I was like, ah, my mom's going to get mad.
Then I'd go to the toilet and be like, ah!
Oh, my.
Because the sink just, like, it seems, like, it just makes you feel a little better.
Because you're like, you know, your head next to the toilet is, like, gross.
I think that's what made me throw up, like, half i threw up was just my head being down there i'd like think about what i was doing and be like
you know when you need to throw up and you like can't and you just start thinking about like
the grossest thing ever just to get you like ready
because when i'm sick and I think of food, I'm like, so I'd be by the toilet,
like, damn, I know I need to throw up, but I like can't, what the hell? And I just think
of like a chalupa and be like that throw up feeling, dude. My, when I, when I'm about
to throw up, like I know because I get hot. Obviously, you know when you're going to throw up.
But like in my mouth turns this small.
My mouth is like the size of a raccoon's mouth.
When I'm about to throw up, I'm like, what's going on?
All right, enough of that.
Damn.
That was the first day.
Wow.
A lot of mileage out a crouton day.
National frog jumping day.
I think the only reason I like frogs on the low low
is because the frog beanie baby was tight.
That's so stupid, but...
I don't know.
I was like, that's a cool one.
National apple Pie Day.
Apple pie is pretty good.
I've talked about pies like every single podcast, but I don't think anybody really minds.
Anybody else's grandma put like when I go over to our grandma's for Christmas, like she was like a dope cook.
So everything was just like, oh, shit, we're about to go crazy up in here.
Why did I just talk like that?
I don't know.
But that's how I felt walking in my grandma's.
We were about to eat.
It was just about to be so dope.
You know what I mean?

I feel like that might be a thing.
DM me if your grandma put pies on your porch. Anybody else's grandma do that? I feel like that might be a thing. DM me if your grandma put pies on your porch. But like, like we don't, and there'd be like a door that goes to the porch and
we'd like look out of this curtain and be like, did she make the, cause every year it was like,
when's she going to stop making the pies? Cause like, that's a, that's a lot of work. And like
your grandma, you know, it's just like when, you know, it's just one of these times, it's just not
going to be like this. So every year we'd like
Pull the curtain open look through the glass
