Let's get to the question of the week. Espresso, quick, quick, quick, quick, quick, question of the week. What's the thing you never bought that you still regret?
Starting point is 00:09:32 God, man. I've got a lot that hurt. I'm just going to say them. Honestly, I'm going to be very straight up. Four or five of them are probably shoes. Because, like, you just, you can just buy them now and eat. no you can't there's a there's a time like you missed out when the shoes were hot back in whenever
Starting point is 00:09:55 2006 yeah I can get those shoes now for like quadruple the price but they're not like they're not hot like they were what I'm thinking about is the Jordan Aqua 8 oh no oh my God
Starting point is 00:10:16 what is that even what even is that you always say stuff I have no idea what it it's the Jordan 8s that like are the real like they're different than all the rest of them Chris cross strap cool little design on the bottom what color were they wild berry Pop-Tart kind of looked like a kind of looked like roller blades without the roller blades oh boy just wanted to wear those at school so bad somebody had them i was like he's got those for school anybody ever ever wear something so sick you kind of hate him i was like i don't like that kid anymore i don't like that kid anymore he's wearing all the stuff i want he's kind of got my
Starting point is 00:11:08 hair i don't like him but deep down here in love with him god missed out I don't know how I'd ever buy them. Maybe I asked for him for Christmas. It was always a gamble asking for shoes for Christmas because you're paying. I'm like, I don't know if my dad knows how to get shoes my size. Like that's like a hot release. If I ever have a kid though, I will, dude, the things I'm going to do if I have a kid and it's Christmas, you don't want to know. I'll get shot in a shoe line if that's what it takes.
Starting point is 00:11:45 No better feeling than giving somebody a. present on Christmas and that you talk about Christmas all the time day changer day year changer when they open up a present oh what's up yeah uh-huh I paid attention we writing down little notes when people are talking okay okay she likes grinola bars okay so I'm gonna get her a huge boxer granola bars got it don't even know talk to her twice in my life don't the thing you never bought that you still regret that bloody scream mask boy oh boy god the first time you walked it was always out it was at a grocery store it's called mire myers if you're a mom they had a dope this was before like party
Starting point is 00:12:41 city spirit of Halloween this is before them they I might have had like a little willy-nilly Halloween shop in the mall that was like seasonal. You know how they do that? But grocery stores used to carry Halloween. They used to make their own little, like they had a huge display right when you walk in. There'd be like kind of a kind of a little haunted house you walk in. It's not like Spirit Halloween, how there's like a weird like, that thing at Spirit Halloween gets me every time. I know it's coming.
Starting point is 00:13:13 I know it's coming. Still, right when you walk into Spirit Halloween, terrifying. Four, four creatures standing 10 feet tall with knives. Right when I walk in. They didn't have all that, but they had the haunted house you walk into it. So all the masks on the side and then I saw the bloody screen. I was like, oh, that's just a normal screen mask with plastic over it. It seems a little thicker.
Starting point is 00:13:44 And then I looked at the little picture of blood coming down. Ooh! I knew there was no way in hell. I was leaving the store at that. No way. No chance. It's too gross. My mom.
Starting point is 00:13:58 It's disgusting. I wanted it so bad. Never could have a cool Halloween costume after that. I remember one year. You're talking about Halloween? Yeah, because it's fall, babe. Hey, Ash, it's fall. Pumpkin spice lattes are out at Starbucks.
Starting point is 00:14:19 It's fall. Leaves, candies. Taylor Swift. Trick or treat. Cinnamon. Yeah. Could never have a cool costume. One year I had a,
Starting point is 00:14:44 Robin costume. I'm so Robin. I'm so sick. Batman, uh, Batman Return. What was the Batman when they had like Mr. Freeze and the Ridler? It was a stacked cast. One of the sick, one of the sickest Batman's poison ivy. Talk about your sexual awakening. Poison Ivy? For some reason was into Redheads hard and then I saw poison ivy. Good God.
Starting point is 00:15:13 But I was robin from that Batman It felt good Had a good costume Had the fake muscle chest Um Put it on Put it on my mom's bed Before we're about to go out to trick or treat
Starting point is 00:15:27 And someone sat on it So I had a huge crack in the muscle chest So I was just walking around Yeah Hey what's up Why is there a huge slice In the middle of your pecks Just didn't fit it right
Starting point is 00:15:43 had that one year probably the coolest costume I had but up until then I was just I'm telling you I was just every single year couldn't get the bloody screen mask couldn't get it it's too expensive
Starting point is 00:15:56 you need to create to make something my mom when it came to Halloween make something so I just pulled the old faithful out of the closet the old padded big puffy bee costume had to be had to be 12 years in a row
Starting point is 00:16:16 big stupid B it was like it was like cushioned like you know the cushions like around on the seats on your kitchen table it was like that you like press into it you could have tackled me into a front yard I wouldn't I wouldn't have felt it every single you know you're you're having Halloween parties at school cool. I'm showing up to Halloween with a big fluffy bee costume on. And we're talking like, we're talking like fifth, fifth grade. Fifth grade like something like embarrassment starts
Starting point is 00:16:53 to set in, you know. It's not cute anymore. Like you got you got to kind of have a little bit of a scary like cool costume in fifth grade. You're getting judge now. Nope, not me. It's just walking in with two big fuzz balls on my head. I tried to make it scary. I started to growling at people. What are you doing? I was like, I'm a killer bee. Just, come on. Don't ruin this right now.
Starting point is 00:17:23 All because I didn't get the bloody scream mask. Let's hear yours. What's the thing you never bought that you still regret? I love you, milky boy. So, Bitcoin, for sure. Everyone got us 2017. I vividly remember my uncle and my dad
Starting point is 00:17:47 and my grandma's front porch. On a spring day in 2017, much like today, nothing like today. He's in Florida in the muggy heat. But anyway, we're talking to it. It was like just around a thousand a coin. My uncle had some. Man, I didn't have money at the time.
Starting point is 00:18:06 He was in college. And they didn't give us money. Unfortunately, ship by quite a few years about like one or two but anyway that for sure you know
Starting point is 00:18:18 well hey hey hey hey a little money more in quarterback today you know what do I wake up small the roses little great jehosa fat little great freaking little bc yeah but anyway
Starting point is 00:18:30 stretching waking up right now but anyway that when I was a kid remember the Skymold magazines first of all great black material if you get the reference if you don't it's when you're in the bathroom you read a book that kind of book and or that kind of magazine it was a cool magazine that had all the cool tech
Starting point is 00:18:51 and random crap it was like brookstone before brookstone it's way better than brookstone but they had that robot dinosaur thing that was like 180 it seemed like a thousand dollars god it did and they were part of like 30 bucks and i remember one or one so so badly so badly but not ever got it. And that's probably going to be the one that in Bitcoin. Robot Dino.
Starting point is 00:19:19 Oh, you're silly me. At the age of 14 or 12 or 10 for not buying Bitcoin, you know, it's seem like you always see the memes. Oh, yeah, what was I thinking playing in freaking recess playground time with freaking Jimmy Mike, Johnny Frank, and the boys, while I could have been
Starting point is 00:19:36 invested in a stock market or in real estate, Goofy Me at 12 not thinking of that But yeah Bitcoin Circa 2017 And Skymall Robot Dinosaurs Circa 2000 Like 7
Starting point is 00:19:52 Yeah Morning's a little bit More out you know I smoke more than a lot It's because we spoke up But just a tiss A lot Chase God y'all
Starting point is 00:20:04 Really good. I'm checking out Sorry, I'll do it for you. Dude, just give them a waking up and ripping a voice message clean first attempt. Let's talk. Love it, man. Thank you, Milky Boy. Sky Mall, though.
Starting point is 00:20:24 Where were those magazines? Were those in airplanes? Just so much crap in there. Why would you ever need it? so much like uh so much i i the ipod tech stuff always wanted one of those big um a big like never had just never had the opportunity to get it but like you ever see it's always like it's always like it's always at a sporting good story you like you like drive by it's always on the outside of like against the wall that big
Starting point is 00:21:11 floating trampoline oh hello is anyone home dog you just you have a little if you can you imagine having a pool with a floating tramp um or your homeboy's got a lake a floating trampoline God, so fire, so fire. Never had any reason to buy it, but I was like, yo, if you're buying stuff like that, like you're in a different tax bracket. It did seem like everything you wanted to buy from the SkyMall magazine was like just totally unaffordable.
Starting point is 00:21:54 I think that's because we're all kind of, we're all kind of poor grown up. Did you seriously call me poor? Yeah. I don't know. how was it like how did were there are there people that exist that they ask their parents or stuff and their parents just got it for them bro i had to negotiate like wall to wall
Starting point is 00:22:18 sun up to sundown parents acted like we had a hundred dollars growing up i think i thought for a minute we only had a hundred and five dollars i was like i can't ask for that but everything seems so expensive and you look at it now and you're like that was only 70 bucks like a trampoline an actual trampoline
Starting point is 00:22:42 bro we had to convince my mom it maybe took a month like of just like just just hounding her every day every day but they have yeah they haven't gotten hurt on it is the thing
Starting point is 00:22:56 it was the whole thing about getting hurt we wanted the trampoline without the net because the net made it look so bad. Ew. You see a trampoline with a net, the net's all ripped up, it looks all gross.
Starting point is 00:23:08 You see a trampoline straight. No net? Just looks like paradise. It took a straight up month to get my mom to buy a trampoline. I went to Walmart the other day to see how much trampolines were. $84.
Starting point is 00:23:29 $84? $84? I think we had to, like, loop it into a couple graduation presents. I was like, I won't get anything for my birthday or Christmas or my graduation. My sister had to double down on it. Yeah, I mean, either. Got the tramp. Set it up in the backyard, straight gas.
Starting point is 00:23:52 My dad was so mad. It's going to kill the grass. It's going to kill the grass. dude my dad would my dad would move everything we bought my dad would move it by a basketball hoop put it in the grass on the side of the driveway every morning he'd move it to the driveway it's gonna kill the grass dude dad's in grass get over it the trampoline out there stupid he's gonna kill the grass my dad moving the trampoline in the morning before school god Jesus Christ I can't believe it
Starting point is 00:24:30 The dew from the grass in the morning kicking up on his khakis, pants all wet coming to the car. He has a stupid trip. One time he like went out of town or something, coaching at a football clinic for like two weeks. You should have seen the dead, dead grass circle in our backyard. A perfect circle, bro. Ha ha ha ha. Everything. My dad hated

Starting point is 00:25:14 was low-key trying to burn off some calories Just like before bed Well we walked by this guy And he was just spraying down his driveway And like
Starting point is 00:25:27 kind of cursing under his breath And Jesus Christ A bunch of crap what the hell he did it was like it was like 938 p.m. And I was like what is he doing?
Starting point is 00:25:39 My dad was like he's spraying off all his kids sidewalk chalk because it looks like crap on the driveway. I was like oh shit. It's every dad. Stupid ass hopscotch
Starting point is 00:25:51 connect the dots piece of shit. Dads hate stuff. dude dad's love lawn way too much though so i don't want a house if i got a house i think i'd turn into to scott is that scott from scott's turf builder i'd change my name
Starting point is 00:26:12 what's up scott i'd always have a piece of grass in my mouth sun hat on sitting on the porch fertilizer there were so many things that went into i remember it was like it started to like control my life a little bit. I'll be playing in the backyard. I'm like, hey, I think we got grubs. I'm like six years old.
Starting point is 00:26:33 We got grubs. What are we doing this weekend? Me, six. We got to aerate the yard. We got to call somebody. Our whole life was it, dude, it was such a struggle. It was the only thing my family cared about was our grass. fertilizing it

Starting point is 00:27:12 bro we had we had crab grass one year oh my god I was like I can't even I can't even look at our yard my dad it's a reflection of our of our house.
Starting point is 00:27:26 We had dandelions real bad one year. I'm like, what's going on with our lot? What's going on? Dude, we, did we sign a deal with the devil? Did we get a cheap lot because the grass is a... God, it's something, it's always something, huh? I'm seven years old at school. Yeah, we have dandelions now.
Starting point is 00:27:48 Good God. I just remember taking, I remember taking a handful of grass, ripping it up and seeing 19 little grubs underneath if you don't know what grubs are there's like little worms that kill your yard God they're so ugly that piss me off so bad
Starting point is 00:28:04 ew only thing I thought about for probably like the first 11 years of my life grubs nobody else had them I was like I guess we're the only people in the whole world to have grubs
Starting point is 00:28:21 and then like trolley made a made a candy out of them and that was a final straw for me I went to the gas station and saw trolley bright crawlers trolley grubs I was like let's keep going
Starting point is 00:28:36 part two P2 P2 P2 he loves you he wants you thought what he did change your life for the best way ever
Starting point is 00:28:48 and what's important decision we can make and so your life's Christ so on top of that we'll love going to be on top of that but to wrap it all up like the next time there's a crypto
Starting point is 00:29:04 check it out well maybe not because we have like the thousands of dumb mean coins like I think Jay Paul had one I don't get him Trump but I love Trump but like dude really Trump coins that's not
Starting point is 00:29:16 I don't think that's really going to do anything I don't even know what it's like like you're not to ramp but dude one of these freaking fake little internet smuggies that you can't touch access or shit I don't understand it it's such a foggians

Starting point is 00:30:01 Station out about that Falcon Yeah, I don't understand any of those coins Never will. Never will try either. There's always a new one Meme coin? What is it? And how do you fall into that? And how are you like collecting?
Starting point is 00:30:18 it. I don't even understand Bitcoin. Next time there's a Bitcoin, let me know. I regret never buying the Zen Garden from the book fair in fifth grade. Wait, what is that? It might be the reason why my nervous system is still fucked. Zen Garden book fair.
Starting point is 00:30:40 We got to see what's going on here. Wait, hold on. I don't know Oh, the little thing The little Is it a little like gardening thing? Oh, with the sand and the rake I kind of don't remember
Starting point is 00:31:03 Yeah, but that will That stuff will hang over your head You go to the book for it, bro, the smell of the book fair Oh everybody was excited even your teacher to go to the book fair you saw them setting up in the atrium of your school just like the the lobby you know even poor schools the book fair would make it bang scholastic book fair week my mom gave me ten dollars i'd be like you're so lucky You have no idea how lucky you are.
Starting point is 00:31:48 The Scholastic Book Fair was such an event that I respected. I couldn't even steal from it. And I was stealing. One of those big basketball erasers? Come on. Didn't even want to take it. I was like, this ain't, this isn't a time for me. It was just like a wonderland.
Starting point is 00:32:07 And it always took like 20 or 30 minutes to go. maybe even longer. I felt like we were at the book fair one time for like 45 minutes. People buy and left and right. I was like, your parents give a shit? Your parents gave you money to buy a book.
Starting point is 00:32:24 Get out of here. I don't even think my parents knew existed, but the walk down from the classroom to the to the scholastic book fair, your teacher, walking through the halls, you're looking through all the classrooms,
Starting point is 00:32:41 left and right. Oh my God, that's a one kid. I've never seen him in school before. I wonder if he's smart. You're dragging your finger along the wall in between two big like two big, uh, cement blocks, you know those? Just feeling the texture. Stop touching the wall. Go down the stairs. Take a left. just a wonderland. Everything displayed perfectly. Shout out to the moms that set up the Scholastic Book Fair.
Starting point is 00:33:19 Everything smelled, dude, that is a very underrated scent. Like a brand new book. You're like, oh, nobody's even cracked into this. You know, your boy went right to the posters. One of the things I regret, not buying, never would have bought it. Just didn't have the scratch at the time.
Starting point is 00:33:41 If I bought anything in those years of my life, it was if I did, like if I didn't spend any money, I got Christmas money and that was it. My grandma gave me Christmas money and that's what your boy was living off of until the next Christmas. Maybe for my birthday, I'd get like 25 bucks. But for Christmas, I thought, I honestly thought I was bawling out of control. 50 bucks? I don't think anybody had it like me, honestly. I was like, we get $50 for Christmas.
Starting point is 00:34:14 $50. And I might get like $25 for my birthday. You know, you get a couple of, your aunt gives you five and ten here and that year. Whoa. That lasted me, had to last me the whole year. Wanted to split some shoes. It's coming out of the Christmas fund. Didn't have that kind of money when the Scholastic Book Fair rolled around.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Bro, that little poster corner. There weren't even regulation-sized posters, but they always had heat. That prowler poster, you know what I'm talking about. What a dumb car. Prouler. Remember the poster? Is it prowler?
Starting point is 00:35:00 On the top? Whoa! I remember my friend Zach got it. I was like, dude, you're just filthy ridge, man. You know, I'm, you know, I'm saying is he's a like a only child money the only child only children only child's they say only childs they were buying it up at the book fair I was like you guys don't know the struggle your parents are just here here I always kind of felt bad for the
Starting point is 00:35:30 only child I was like what do you do all day just watch Mari you know anybody to play with you don't you don't even have a dog it's just you and your mom home so weird so weird you need to get like beat up at some point there's like just a whole list of kids I'm like you need to get beat up arch manning you need to get beat up dude I know you got brothers you know maybe you don't Jackson dart you need to get beat up there's always kids like that at my school I'm like god he just need to get in a fight like somebody just needs to punch you
Starting point is 00:36:10 really hard in the back okay you're like seriously evil hey you got to get beat up but they always had football players on their posters
Starting point is 00:36:28 too this classic book fair I had to flip through them oh just not not and does not ever
Starting point is 00:36:37 going to be able to buy that but I'll look at it for 25 minutes. Oh my God! Went to my friend's house after school one time. He had it. I was like, you bought that? You sneak bought that, so I didn't see.
Starting point is 00:36:49 Wow. Just in his room, Marshall Fault Colts poster on the wall. Scholastic Book Fair size. I was like, you didn't buy that at Kmart, Doug. No, because it's Scholastic Book Fair size. It's like three-fourths of a real poster, and it's a little thicker.
Starting point is 00:37:03 I know my posters. Poster section, was wild. The pencil topers, wild section. I was always like, maybe one of the moms will just give it to me for free. The Zen Garden. That's powerful.
Starting point is 00:37:24 I should have bought like a year's supply of like the original Butterfingers. I know I've mentioned this before probably in these voice clips, but the new Butterfingers are just trash. They're just so bad and they don't taste like the originals. They're too salty. They're just nasty.
Starting point is 00:37:47 And I wish if I had known, like if I had done some research and known that Nestle was going to kick it over to whatever company owns them now, I would have bought like a year of supply just to like have it. I mean, I know they expire and crap, but man, you know they would have been good for a minute. Yeah, I miss the old butterfingers. that's all I got. Dude, hey, you can bring that up. You can bring up the old Butterfingers every single podcast. Because it's all I think about.
Starting point is 00:38:18 It's all I want to talk about. And don't tell me you've never had an expired Butterfinger. You know, you know when you're eating like old candy. You're like, ah. But it kind of tastes just as good. You're like, this is definitely old.
Starting point is 00:38:36 But it's still hidden. And I'm not going to tell anybody. That old, stale mini butterfinger from Halloween 2004. You just find it in a drawer. How fast do you? Kind of taste a little dusty. You're like, that's it though. That's it.
Starting point is 00:39:01 I hate it when they change recipes of stuff. Like, we're not going to know. Do they have like a patent on the, does Nestle have the butterfinger? and they won't let the other company use it? It'd be smart. They probably do. They did it with Gatorade too.
Starting point is 00:39:16 I'm telling you, cool blue did not use. Cool blue used to be totally different. And then all of a sudden, boom. I'm like, I didn't want to sound crazy, but I'm like, this isn't the same thing. Overnight, one night, 2009. I was like, this cool blue change. They changed their recipe. This is not a cool blue anymore.
Starting point is 00:39:38 Maybe I thought we just got a bad batch. I was like, it's probably my taste buds. I'm probably an idiot. Hasn't been the same. Right from under our nose. That's a good question. What's the recipe they changed that you just want to choke somebody out over? God dang.
Starting point is 00:40:02 That Butterfinger one hurt, man. Because Butterfinger kind of like a tier two candy. I hate to say it to you, man. butterfinger's not the not the the cream of the crop I can't believe I just said that but you got your like your Snickers Kit Kat Rees up here
Starting point is 00:40:21 Power 5 conference and you got you got butter Butterfingers like right below that Butterfinger is like the like the like kind of like the Boise State nah I just I just I just
Starting point is 00:40:38 that was a low blow Butterfinger's kind of like the Notre Dame they're just in the championship yeah but you know what I mean they're like not always in there but some years that you never know I still have Butterfinger in my teeth from like 2008

Starting point is 00:41:52 I would pull four of my teeth out. Not even kidding. When I chomp down back teeth on a milk dud for the first time ever in the car and I didn't get back up, I was like, wow This is that lockjaw thing They're talking about

Starting point is 00:42:25 That's it for me Yeah, that's it Uh huh Well, it's fun all lasted I knew something like this Is gonna happen to it Huh Yeah
Starting point is 00:42:35 one of one experience there Benny what up yo I'm still kind of regretting never having purchased a pair of helies I don't think my parents would let me get them back in the day because they thought I'd be rolling around school and I would get in trouble or something like that
Starting point is 00:42:59 but that shit looks so tight back in the day man just like not walking but rolling just like living in the future bro that's fine dude's crispy every time coming in with heat I thought this wasn't like a nostalgia podcast it just it ends up being one
Starting point is 00:43:21 because it's just so much fun to talk about it I only saw Healy's like on win the like you know Nickelodeon game shows that have like figured out they'd always win like the person who won would always win Healy's. I'd be so, like, imagine
Starting point is 00:43:38 sings, I never saw them until, like, they, like, came back around. I think, like, high schools when I saw them, actually. But growing up, never saw them. Unless it was on, like, a Nickelodeon commercial. And then if I was like, if I see someone
Starting point is 00:43:58 wearing Healy's, like, as I'm growing up, that means they won a Nickelodeon game show. Like, I got to, like, talk to them. That was kind of all I wanted to do my whole entire life was win a sweepstakes on Nickelodeon. What, right?
Starting point is 00:44:15 Kind of all I live for. But I had never even ever tried. It just didn't even cross my mind. I was like, man, I wish I was just be on Hidden Temple. Legends of the Hidden Temple so bad. Figure it out. Just one of them. I'm like, how do they even get
Starting point is 00:44:32 on that? you hear that like casting call and your like local radio station we're looking for the next star I was like is that how you get on those shows like well I guess it was just my like where I lived
Starting point is 00:44:48 and like no one cared to do any of that stuff and I was like man I want to be on Nickelodeon stuff that'd be sick I'm just like watching all that just like yo we could definitely I'm looking at my sisters like we could be on this for sure never ever knew how
Starting point is 00:45:03 hey still still don't know how we try and though baby the one that got me this is another shoe one do you guys remember these they were called goo shoes i think i think or i just made that up but this was definitely a thing it was in when i was in kindergarten like two people in my class had them and there were just like normal like looking like running shoes but they're like plastic pockets all over the shoe and they had like green and purple like goo in them
Starting point is 00:45:38 goo and you could like press it and like spread out and you can just press them they were so sick and I thought it was over I really thought the trend was over then my homie the dude
Starting point is 00:45:54 a weed kid who I'm like how do you have how do your parents how do you convince your parents to buy you this stuff house it was always those kids with like the the like one story like house that smelled like cigarettes that had the coolest stuff i was like how did you get the walked in with an all black pair goo shoes i was like i got to look up the name of these because if they're not gooshoes
Starting point is 00:46:17 i'm probably going to end my life goose shoes oh yeah yeah dude goo shoes they had like blobs on them you could just press this stuff oh they were so ill for school I couldn't even believe my eyes the first time I saw them my mom not buying
Starting point is 00:46:46 not buying into that program whatsoever but I would just I would just stare at them they were converse yep yep I think they sold them at like pay less we walked by pay less one time
Starting point is 00:47:01 and I was like, I'm saying. Insane. I regret that too. I feel like those are 90 bucks. They were probably 30. That's pretty high end for some kindergarten shoes, though.
Starting point is 00:47:21 Goose shoes. I just wanted to rip open that little plastic pocket and see what it was all about. You know, you ever do that with your shoes? there's like an air pocket dude the one day my shoes
Starting point is 00:47:33 got too old I was like I just ate all the air I was like so it's got to make me jump higher stronger or faster I just
Starting point is 00:47:46 I just snored at all the air pocket air it was kind of sad though because at one time I had to I had to put them back on my mom's like put on your shoes let's go and I was like oh shit she doesn't I just pop the air pocket
Starting point is 00:47:59 So I was walking around on broken air pocket shoes What is that noise? I don't know With the goo shoes Do you just want to pop them open and see what the goo is all about? Can I eat that goo? Please? Hey Benny
Starting point is 00:48:24 So something that I always really wanted were pink Timberlin boots. And I would ask for them on my birthday or like any occasion, Christmas, birthday, anything. I think I asked like five years in a row and I never got them, which is wild because I used to get pretty much whatever I asked for. Sorry, that probably makes me sound like a little spoiled bitch.
Starting point is 00:48:53 But yeah, I never bought them or received. them so sometimes i think about buying a pair i mean why not but i've really really really just wanted pink timberland boots for the longest maybe i'll treat myself now that i'm thinking about it for my upcoming birthday love you you got to keep those so clean is the thing yeah you probably never got them because your parents out there are ugly you know don't you hate that when your parents don't like something you can't like you can't get it you're like god i gotta convince my mom is they're cool like i don't know how some kids i grew up with were wearing like fat farm shoes i was like so your mom doesn't even care what you look like this is crazy
Starting point is 00:49:43 girls would wear fat farm shoes i'd be like too you guys are insane you guys should go to the public school are you serious fat farm they were kind of popping for a minute though so i get it and it was like when I was growing up was a big, like, music videos, a lot of, a lot of Nelly street fashion. God, dang. All girls wore, Sophie shorts, fat farm shoes. I was like, I'm in love with all you guys, I guess. It's what it takes.
Starting point is 00:50:22 What up. So, the things. that I regret buying in the past is I had three opportunities to see major icons and legends perform. And the first one was in 2003, I missed the opportunity to see Michael Jordan's last game against the New Jersey Nets in my hometown. down. And I was about to go, you know, I had, I was a junior in high school. I had my friend who got his license, you know, we found tickets for like $200 and then we were going to scalp. This was back when like, you know, you're on ticket master and where you were going to
Starting point is 00:51:09 scalp them. Like, it wasn't easy to get tickets. Been there. And we freaking didn't go. And that was his last year that he retired. And like, you miss seeing out Michael Jordan. The X was in 2011, I had the opportunity to see Prince before my Master Square Garden, and I was going to buy the tickets. It was $300 each. I was a huge Prince fan. I was around 24 years old. And my girlfriend was like, I don't want to go.
Starting point is 00:51:37 I don't like all his songs. It's going to be too boring. And I was going to go by myself. Would have had the time of your life. And I should have, but, of course, I didn't end up going. And the last one was in 2021. I missed opportunity to see Tom Brady before. He was going against the Giants.
Starting point is 00:51:53 He was a game. I actually had free tickets, and I didn't go, because the Giants sucked that year. And it was kind of raining that kind of game. And my boy had tickets, and he's like, you want to go? He's like, you know, this is his last time. And I was like, oh, it's raining. I don't want to, you know. He's like, you could just pay for parking.
Starting point is 00:52:12 I was like, oh, I didn't. I missed it. I didn't go. I didn't see these three guys perform. And, you know, when you have these opportunities, you got to go because it's, you won't see these guys. They either die, they stop performing. And you miss out in greatness. It's just, it's always gives the chance to see your, like, idols or people that you admire, perform, you know, one last time. Yeah. I'm kind of, I don't know if I can agree, dog. You said
Starting point is 00:52:40 you saw Tom Brady perform. Why, why did I think of him singing a song, Tom Brady singing? AFC Championships I beat the bills Every time we play them Sorry Jets I hate you And we beat you every year
Starting point is 00:53:02 I don't know why Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I beat out Drew Bledso We won the Super Bowl That year, I had the Patriots fans respect, and then we got Randy Moss, New England, ruled the AFC forever. I give props to Kevin Falk, Bill Belichick, and Mike Vablety. New England
Starting point is 00:53:48 Teddy Brewski I won't forget you I did most of the work myself We lost that one time to the Colts Charles Woodson Thank you New England All right
Starting point is 00:54:10 Hey who's not going to see Tom If Tom Brady was singing in a sold-out stadium I'm going! But when it comes to games and stuff, I'm kind of like going to games. Dude, I kind of hate live sporting events. Because I think they make it better on TV. Watching an NFL game on TV is a thousand times better.
Starting point is 00:54:42 Dude, I went to a Colts Bears game last year because I was like, this will be sick, right? I'm in a Colts game in a while. The Bears are like a cool team. I felt like, I was like, I got to go home. Like, I don't know if it was the people around. Everybody, I don't know if it's just like Indianapolis,
Starting point is 00:55:02 but I was like, this is like embarrassing. Not that I'm better than anybody or anything like that, but I was just like, I just can't enjoy myself here. Maybe because I wasn't drinking. That might have been some of the part of the problem. but the whole time I was like dude I don't know
Starting point is 00:55:19 I gotta get out of here yeah but you're right man you always make a memory when you go to that kind of stuff it's always something you'll never forget something happens you're like dude we're at that game
Starting point is 00:55:37 yeah you're right I'm not never been to a concert like that before that was just i went to a drake concert in chicago one time kind of last minute it's pretty tough it's pretty tough um the rain the rain the rain will get me definitely will get me to stay home but i one time i went to a t pain and chris brown dual concert and i was like i cannot miss this and it rained and I was like ah come on man come on you can't miss this dude just just just ate and it was like it was like when I was in college so I was like hungry for like
Starting point is 00:56:27 entertainment you know what I mean when you're in college you'll like kind of do anything just have fun like now I'd be like I don't know rain it I what am I going to wear you know the excuse machine would be cranking but in college I was like I don't even care I think I was wearing like you indie you indie football travel suit I was like yo let's just go who care it was the most fun I've ever had at a concert slide slid down a whole entire hill knocked out like 42 people no one cared beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful You know, concerts hype, when on the way home, you're listening to all the songs again. Oh, remember he played that?
Starting point is 00:57:23 Yeah. A lot of games I almost didn't go to that I would really regret now. Oh, it's a LeBron James' high school game. My dad, like, made me go because he knew I'd be like, nah. but they played in obviously he was in high school but he was like him so they played at Dayton University
Starting point is 00:57:51 University of Dayton I don't know which one's which but he sold out an entire college basketball arena for a high school game and we watched oh my God and he was doing stuff too like before the game that like you like he was doing like he knew like there were kids like me there
Starting point is 00:58:11 that were like, oh my God. Like he was shooting, like, he shot like 40 threes from like, like the side. You know the side of the basketball court where you like, you can't even like, you can barely even see the rim, but you're still in bounds. Like the deepest corner three of all time. Heels touching the out of bounds, baseline and sideline. And he was just ripping. I was like, oh my God.
Starting point is 00:58:37 And at that time, like during, uh, warm up. so you couldn't dunk because it was like a tech bro he was doing the nastiest stuff and just dropping it in I was like oh my god this dude this is real life
Starting point is 00:58:51 crazy almost didn't go to that but my dad was like come on let's go we have to go I was like all right yeah you're right you're right you're right
Starting point is 00:59:04 so yeah I guess yeah go to that stuff explode off the ball jents explode. Hey, B, this is Coach Lou calling for the first time. I'm in the middle of our last preseason game, getting the boys ready for week one. Let's see some chop clubs. Chop the elbow, then clubs. God damn, I'll tell you, be these new kids. They don't want her anymore. You can see some of these damn clubs. We're terrible. We might win three games.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Fire off the ball. Damn, that's right, the question. What was it? Was it I regret not buying? I always wanted one of those Nerf footballs that were NFL team colors. I remember seeing one time a Falcons one at a Kmart. I'm not a Falcons fan, but a red and black Nerf football with the Falcons logo? Yeah. I didn't buy it. I don't think I ever saw one again. Oh, well.
Starting point is 01:00:01 All right, I'll hang up and listen. God damn it, run that shit again. I love it, man. Dude, if we can all leave messages like a offensive court like a middle school offensive coordinator
Starting point is 01:00:14 that'd be great. Scup! Scum! Tricp! Tighten up! What's going on with our splits? What's going on with our split? Dude, coaches love that. Splits, fellas. Gah!
Starting point is 01:00:33 Contain! The end? What's your... What's your only job? Huh? What's your only job? Coxie? Contain!
Starting point is 01:00:42 Stay home! The minute he doesn't stay home, falls for the fake, double reverse, touchdown. What I tell you, Coxie! All right. And in that story, Coxie was me.
Starting point is 01:01:00 Um, yeah, God, the nerve football that you can just, you can squeeze. You can flatten it. You can squeeze in earth football so hard. We had one like that.
Starting point is 01:01:15 I played with it every single day, probably. Until like I bought like a regulation size football. It was called, I think it was called DeBomb. The grenade or something? DeBomb football. Oh my God. DeBomb football. No, not the NFL Blitz play.
Starting point is 01:01:37 dude it was all blackball it looks so sick it had like little grippy things on it an orange band around it tell me if you know what i'm talking about i think the orange band was glow in the dark too so you kind of throw it at night in the summer fresh cut grass backyard bare feet freshly cut grass backyard bare feet throwing the bomb around can see the glow in the dark ring around mosquitoes kind of biting your ankles doing this when somebody's throwing it to you goes over your head you got to run in the street
Starting point is 01:02:15 look for cars you get it wet you can ring it out yeah man those are nerve fall I can't believe I was allowed to have a vortex ball talk about the most dangerous like activity of all time I have a theory that they had to put a whistle
Starting point is 01:02:35 on the vortex ball so they weren't like killing people because remember how you could throw that thing when you're like 12 years old a vortex ball the one that didn't have a whistle dude you could take out people's like fence posts wooden popsicle stick fence fence
Starting point is 01:02:50 I think 23 of them were broken because I had a vortex ball you hit somebody in a head with a vortex ball like throwing fast gotta put a whistle on the Is that a firework? The Vortex bat Now that was something that didn't live up to its hype
Starting point is 01:03:15 They came out with a vortex Nerf Baseball bat Because I was a big red bat family I don't know why But every time we went to my grandparents house We picked up a big red bat in like three ball three of those like wiffle balls would just crank them

Starting point is 01:03:43 and the bases were like cookout plates upside down pinned to the ground yeah smackin but they came out with a Mark McGuire version and it just wasn't that good
Starting point is 01:03:57 it was kind of heavy. I was like, I just don't like it. It was kind of short, too. It was like, it's big. I was like, is this a police baton? When it came to outdoor activity toys, we kind of had it. Dude, my mom would do anything
Starting point is 01:04:12 for us to not be in the house. Anything. Oh, my God. We were playing board games outside on the deck, just blazing heat. Just playing, playing, uh, Blurt As long as you're not inside

Nuts in cookies and dessert. and still like I just kind of a distraction for me like a nut isn't the the main event here it's a knot it's just not the right it's not the right thing you get a handful of peanuts okay okay it's a whole different thing but you put nuts in a cookie I'm like I don't know about that the white macadamia I've been I've been tried I've been talked into it a lot of times I've had it, a warm one. I've had a warm one at the mall. Peak mall, warm macadamia.
Starting point is 01:12:50 Should have gone with the peanut butter. Friday. Cheese pizza day. I think the hate is fake, but the way people slander Papa Johns is just, I just can't even take. I almost want to like fight them sauce tastes like ketchup I'm like no it doesn't I want to almost defend Papa John's with my life
Starting point is 01:13:25 it's the best it's honestly when they say fresh ingredient or like better ingredients better pizza I'm like they're right they're dead on everything the cheat everything's I'm like they did just make this
Starting point is 01:13:40 I know it Little Caesars on the other hand I mean it's not fresh But you're getting what you pay for Five bucks for something that's been kind of sitting there And it's bomb Did you see it like You can go to Little Caesars now

Starting point is 01:14:49 Huh? Tell me how we have Papa John's Day at school. Everybody's splitting a pizza. Ten bucks. My mom would give me five bucks that day and just be like, go crazy dog. I split a pizza with my quarterback. Boom. He gets half.
Starting point is 01:15:06 I get half. And then we're supposed to, pay attention for the rest of the day. You want me to eat half after I'm starving like a Rottweiler, eat half a pizza and then do algebra after? What a life, dude.

Starting point is 01:15:50 Saturday Coffee ice cream day That little chick filet Mix up you do that yet what's it called a I don't know I don't know if there's a proper name for it or if my or if Joey Moulanero's dad
Starting point is 01:16:16 just made it up and sent it to me but you can get a coffee with ice cream in it at Chick-fil-A and it's just a normal everyday thing are you kidding me do you hear what Nestle do you hear what Nestle and like in like China. I don't know if I've
Starting point is 01:16:42 the battery life to get into this but they like they tried to introduce coffee to everybody and everybody hated it. So they made a bunch of Nestle made a bunch of coffee flavored candy and gave it to kids and then the kids got hooked on the flavor of coffee.
Starting point is 01:16:59 So by the time the kids were like 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 they were like, I want that and then they started giving them coffee like to get around the hole. It's gross. They just gave it to the kids. Get them all hooked. But where I'm confused is what kid likes coffee-flavored can?
Starting point is 01:17:19 When I was drinking, when I had a sip of coffee and I was a kid, I was like, or even when you had like a toffee, like kind of coffee tasting candy bar. I was like, this is a, a heath bar when you're a kid? That's a sin. My mom would gobble them down. I'd be like, what is wrong with her? Sunday. Salami day.
Starting point is 01:17:51 Kind of a lost art. After you, when you move out of your, like, parents' house, this is sad. That's, you're never going to have salami again. Unless it's like at an open house
Starting point is 01:18:06 or something like that. unless somebody like bought some like Jimmy Johns for a whole entire group outing that one of them has salami you're not you're not just going to the deli and being like you can I get a half pound to shave salami you never knew
Starting point is 01:18:27 and it was the last time you ate salami at your childhood home what it what an amazing invention Salami sandwiches On a My mom used to make them on a hamburger bun
Starting point is 01:18:44 With a slice of cheese Mustard money sign Money sign a mustard on top A cup of lemonade I feel like a church hymn should have played Hey some we never really had chips but like some bake lays next to it
Starting point is 01:19:10 taste and see taste and see my mom comes out the screen door the goodness of the Lord sets it down in front of me of the law very limited supply of salami
Starting point is 01:19:33 at our house three things that we would go like crazy at our house. Grapes? You leave a bag of grapes open at our house. Bye. See ya. Where do you think you're going?
Starting point is 01:19:48 Popping them. Salami, gone. Doesn't stand a chance. And, uh, Animal crackers. See you. Bye. Nice media. Never knew you. Take down a whole entire barrel of animal crackers. After school

Starting point is 01:20:41 you have a salami sandwich at school bring your lunch to school have a salami sandwich I'm like I don't think I'm worthy honestly I might just save this for after school I can't eat this here I don't like eating cool stuff in like bad situations pizza party at work I was like, this is a bad idea.
Starting point is 01:21:03 I don't want to enjoy this here. I don't want to eat anything here. I don't get how people do that. Oh my God, we're bringing cupcakes into school. Cupcakes into, we're having donuts at work. I was like, this is the, no, this is not, I want to have donuts when I don't have to look at you people. I want to have donuts in my car on the way home.
Starting point is 01:21:25 Going to work, eating donuts, it just doesn't make sense to me. No, you have to do it. I'm going to be sad, so I'm not going to do anything happy until the sad part's over. That's how my brain works. Oh, you have something, you have something that you're coming up that you're scared to do. Then you're going to be scared the whole day until you do it. That's just how it goes. Work party.
Starting point is 01:21:54 I'm like that.
