The 10 Toes Down challenge. You made that up. I did not.
Starting point is 00:01:07 The title's like Halloween 1997. VHS. All right, so shot 128. We got a good show. Let's see what happened. What's been going on? Oh, shows last week were good. We talked about that a little bit. Had a show in St. Louis. Well, not really. Me and one of my homies, Joey Bender, went out to St. Louis and the show was at seven o'clock and we got stuck in traffic for four hours.
Starting point is 00:01:48 in my life and we just started like so nothing like we got we started moving again at 10 o'clock and the show was over so I don't know the whole entire time we just like played football and stuff so that show never happened we just played we literally played sports in traffic the whole entire time on the way up there but that never happened show on Thursday was good at Metazoa it popped off there were like 700 dogs in the crowd. They were like heckling me, but I can't even handle like a group of human hecklers. I don't know. It's hard for me to contain like a pack of dogs just barking during a show the whole time. It was the weirdest experience of my life, but it was good.
Starting point is 00:02:20 It ended up being good. Dog, what? You know that video that just went viral about the dog face dude drinking the ocean spray? You know, have you guys not seen that? I haven't seen it. Shut up. No dog face video that I've seen. The guy that's like drinking ocean spray and like that song's in the background.
Starting point is 00:02:48 No. You guys haven't seen that? I know what you're talking about. He's pulling it up. Pulled up. Pulled up. Oh, you haven't seen that. I've seen this.
Starting point is 00:02:59 How else could I have explained that for you to be like, oh, yeah. I don't know. I don't think there's anything you could have said that would have brought me to oh yeah i don't know i don't think there's anything you could have said that would have brought me to this dude play this real quick this is is this the most viral video like of all time i can't play because it's copyrighted we can play without sound though all right you guys know this video though i'll just sing the song no i don't know the song hit it what do you think he's what do you think he's that's all the whole time i've been watching this video i'm trying to figure out what he's like what is he is he on a skateboard
Starting point is 00:03:32 i mean i feel like he's on a boosted board like what's that like an electronic board where it's just like automatically powered yeah it's way too he's not he's not putting in any work he's just going what if he's i think he's going down a hill though maybe that's that's a good question it makes me think he has like one of those one of those like boards with the ball in the middle have you seen those like just with the one tire i hate those so much i don't know man uh but, so he got like a, I think he, I think Ocean Spray gave him a car for that video going so viral. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:04:12 It's ridiculous. But that's all I saw all weekend. What else? It's LeBron. LeBron won his fourth. Did I realize last night that like I was looking in the mirror and I have the exact same hair as LeBron James look at this this is the reveal of my hair
Starting point is 00:04:29 after four months after getting a transplant dude I swear to god I have the exact same hair as LeBron James right now is it my right or not it's not as bad oh really shit as bad I don't know yeah it's my mom's birthday Shit as bad. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Yeah. It's my mom's birthday. What else is going on? No, seriously. It's my mom's birthday today. Happy birthday, Mrs. Polizzi. Everybody say it. No, say it in your heads real quick.
Starting point is 00:04:59 Happy birthday, Mrs. Polizzi. Hey. I always forget parents don't care about their birthdays at all. When you say happy birthday to your dad or something, what does what it's almost like they get mad and I know yeah I was like oh it's my mom's birthday I better be all sweet and nice and stuff she didn't even text me back I don't know dude what about like when people sing to you on your birthday is that like the is that like the most like why do people want that i don't know that's so cringe when people do that i think it's like they just assume that it's like the thing to do but like everybody if like you were to actually like ask each other whether we want to do this i would be like no
Starting point is 00:05:37 like the person that starts it that's the person i hate and i work at a restaurant it's always somebody's birthday and it's always a lie. Like, you know, when you just say it's your birthday at a restaurant so you get something free. It's like, I have like 15 birthdays a day. They always want me to sing. How do you know that they're a lie? Because everybody just says it's their birthday at a restaurant so they can get like a free ice cream sundae or some shit. Every time. But yeah, so happy birthday, mom. Okay. Let's get into this.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Uh, I put a story on Instagram, your best or worst breakup. Um, so, all right, let's go best or worst. Have you guys ever had like a crazy breakup with anybody? Not a crazy one. No, just like a mutual, like where it kind of made sense. You know what I mean? Yeah. But it never really does though. Or that's what the, that's what the girl says. Okay. Here we go. This is Megan Sinito. The guy told me, Megan Sinito, what's your worst, best or worst breakup story? The guy told me he wasn't really into women three months into the relationship. So she was just like a test run?
Starting point is 00:06:59 Like she was experimental? Guinea pig. Okay, that's okay. That is kind of, yeah. Having a girl say that to you. Actually, I would probably like that. If the girl's like, yeah, I'm kind of into girls. I'd be like, all right, see ya.
Starting point is 00:07:13 But that's cool. Thank you. I like you more. Okay. Best or worst breakup stories. Tommy Iyer. breakup stories. Tommy Iyer.
Starting point is 00:07:28 A girl I dated in high school purposely bought me the wrong size clothes for Christmas and said she was going to return them for the right sizes. She broke up with me the next day and kept my gifts and returned the clothes for her money back. Diabolically evil? Yes, but I respect the hustle. Dude, that's a lot of work for like 60 bucks back on clothes.
Starting point is 00:07:57 I'll be too lazy to take those. That's a lot. That doesn't even make sense to me. Purposely bought me the wrong size clothes for Christmas. Kept my gifts. Every time a girl, like you break up with a girl, do they give you all your stuff back that you gave them? Or do they keep it?
Starting point is 00:08:16 They keep it usually, I think. I'd say they probably keep. If it's expensive, then I'd probably want it back, if it's expensive, then I probably want it back. But it's not. Every time I've ever broken up with a girl, I always, or like it just, I never like break up. Like we're breaking up. It's always just like, I guess we're not doing this anymore.
Starting point is 00:08:35 There's never like a hardcore like line. Yeah. Every time that happens, I always end up with like a trash bag of like clothes on my doorstep the next day does that has that ever is that a thing is that like a movie thing like a trash bag of all the stuff i movie thing but that's happened to me three times and one time there's a balloon on it i was like god damn it a balloon like attached to the trash bag on my doorstep my roommates were like yo you got a gift you got a present present? I was like, from who? I was all happy and shit.
Starting point is 00:09:07 Yeah, it was kind of funny. All right, here we go. Mads, worst or best breakup you've ever had? I got blacked out at a friend family function on our anniversary and went off on him. And went off on him. I'm in front of everyone about how I was treated like shit, unappreciated, and then went off on his family too. Woke up alone at his parents' house and
Starting point is 00:09:34 he broke up with me over text messages. I got blacked out at a friend family function on our anniversary. It does seem like every time girls are trying to make a point of something, they do it in front of the biggest crowd of all time. Oh, yeah, they'll wait. What is that? It's like, do you have to do this at a party every time? Yeah. Woke up alone at his parents' house and broke up with me over text messages.
Starting point is 00:10:06 I feel like breaking up over the text messages is honestly the way to go. Oh, yeah, of course, of course. It's like standard not to, but it's like the easiest way to do it. It's like how it initiates. You're like, I don't want to do this anymore, and then bam, you're like on the phone or on FaceTime
Starting point is 00:10:21 or like in person. Breaking up in person, I don't know. How did you break up with your girl? In person. What did you say, dude? In the car. We took like a break from each other or whatever for a month. And then we came back to each other and we're like, yeah, it's probably best that we just.
Starting point is 00:10:39 It was mutually fine. Yeah. But no, I feel like if both people kind of like, if it's kind of like a known thing that like we're going to break up, then like just text would be like the best way to go. But if like, if they don't know, then I would say in person would probably be better. Like the other person doesn't know that you're about to break up with them. Just surprise the shit.
Starting point is 00:11:02 Surprise in person. I don't know. Okay, here we go. Lex Kardashian. Worst or best breakup story? My ex-boyfriend broke up with me on my 27th birthday over text messages. Okay. We're good so far, dude.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Good job. We had dinner plans, and he canceled one hour before because i asked him to pick me up on the way to dinner he texted me he couldn't do this anymore so i'd that sounds so familiar who is this guy so i so i had sex with his best friend just kidding oh damn it dude but i did go to dinner and then to the bars and had a great time that's the most evil thing of all time if a girl were to actually do that to your best friend i guess you're not best friends if the other dude's gonna have sex with your ex-girlfriend but canceled one hour before because i asked him to pick me up on the way to dinner.
Starting point is 00:12:06 Yeah, he had a little freak out. That's a normal guy thing. I love how this podcast is just like the relationship podcast today. Okay, Bailey Ransberg, best or worst breakups. In high school, a dude put Oreos in my locker with a note that said, Happy one month.
Starting point is 00:12:27 I can't wait for Morio. I thought this was breakup stories. I think so, too. And that freaked me out, so I broke up with him after school. Oh, there we go. Happy one month. I can't wait for Morio. Oh.
Starting point is 00:12:43 Dude, I don't know. It's cringe. It's cringe cringe but it seems like a girl wouldn't a girl like that depends on which oreos they are like double stuff okay who even eats the single oreo like the single the normal regular og oreo dude even worse than that is thins imagine getting thin oreos like at that point why are you double stuff i'm just normal dude why you don't like that you think it's too much i've never had a double stuffed oreo you're missing out man are you from mars dude you've never you ever had mega stuff dude to see that that's crazier than the

Did your parents make that for you when you were a kid or did your parents make the same thing for you every night my mom had like five different meals that were really really good and she was just like scared to go out of her comfort zone and make something else so we just like damn frying your mom no but the but the five were good though.

That doesn't even make sense.

Starting point is 00:17:47 i get to awkwardly jump her car she continues to cry super uncomfortable damn see i in that situation i'd be like i don't really know how to jump your car like what do people still ask you for jump like for a jump does that? Has that ever happened to you? It's always in the worst scenarios. Malik, bruh. I needed a jump at a gas station, and then the police came up to the car next to us and had a full-on drug raid on the car next to us.
Starting point is 00:18:19 I was like... And then at the very end, once they were wrapping it up, I had to ask the police officer for a jump. I was like, the DA's there? I'm like, they were wrapping it up, I had to ask the police officer for a jumper. I was like, the DA's there? I'm like, you guys got a jumper? Do cops do that though? Oh yeah, he definitely helped us out for sure. So cops just had, I guess to get away from that problem, you just stop carrying around jumper cables in your car.
Starting point is 00:18:37 That's a good way to fix that. Why the fuck? I guess, but you need them though if you need it. What if somebody else doesn't have them that is trying to jump your car? You need them, though, if you need them. What if somebody else doesn't have them that is trying to jump your car? Sometimes, like, when somebody asks me, I feel like they can just tell I'm lying when I say no. Is that your dad? What's up, dude?
Starting point is 00:18:53 Where's he going? Where are you going? Oh, your truck. Lame. All right, cool. Isn't that with, like, a lot of things, though? Like, somebody will ask you for like a dollar and like they know you have a dollar dude every homeless person just stares into my

Starting point is 00:20:06 Dude, when you're playing a girl in something, do you let them win or you just beat the shit out of them? It's no different for me. It's just another game. It doesn't matter whether I'm playing a boy or a girl. Like, I have to win. Dude, I'm just so bad. It's always Mario Kart.

Starting point is 00:22:39 Hooking up with old dudes from Craigslist, dude. I don't trust Craigslist at all. Have you ever done anything on Craigslist? I can't. I don't i don't think i've bought a fish tank on craigslist you sold one yeah how sketch was it that's like the the most innocent thing it was it was sketchy for sure i just don't think i knew like what facebook marketplace or any of those things were so i just like sold it on craigslist somebody came and picked it up. What's the difference between Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist? Craigslist is like foreign and like everybody on there is like
Starting point is 00:23:08 half the people are like it's just way more sketchy. So you have to like drive to somebody's house and like drop off a fish tank? Like that's how you do that? I mean it depends like what you agree on. Like they could come pick it up or I could come drop it off. Why is it like the Craigslistlist website the first website ever made?
Starting point is 00:23:27 It's never. There hasn't been one change to it. Are there even ads on it, which makes it even worse? No, I don't think so. But Facebook Marketplace is like... It's like the new thing to do. Because you've got to think it's connected to their Facebook so I could see that it's you.
Starting point is 00:23:44 You look like a normal guy, but with Craigslist, there's no pictures or anything. Okay. So it's like, who the fuck am I even pulling up to? Hooking up on Craigslist, though. What?

Bye bye all right hashtag i keep reminding myself hashtag i keep reminding myself dude all day i pretty much i don't know why but like anytime i do something dumb or something like that, I shouldn't do. I always, I always like force myself to drink like a gallon of water. Do you guys do that? I feel
Starting point is 00:24:35 like I remind myself to stay hydrated the whole day. And it's always after something, like if I eat like a Kit Kat, I'm like, shit, I got to drink a bottle of water. That's like my, like, dude.

Starting point is 00:25:26 Like I feel like I can get hydrated And then like once I like go up the stairs My pee's like yellow immediately Why is it so hard? Why is it the only thing I think of? Hashtag What I'm passionate about No fuck that.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Hashtag superstitious. Do you guys do anything like every day that you got to keep doing? Not at all superstitious. I'm not superstitious, but I don't split poles. Yo, that's a big deal. I don't, but I do it and I'm like, yeah, whatever. Oh, yo, that's a big deal. I don't, but I do it. And I'm like,
Starting point is 00:26:06 yeah, whatever, bro. You remember that? So if we were, if we were like walking down the street and we like, we like both walk by a stop sign and split us in the middle, you'd have to come all the way back around.
Starting point is 00:26:15 We're, we're two guys. So no, but if it was like me and a girl, I'd be like, yo, don't split the pole. So like,
Starting point is 00:26:20 but like, what are you doing it for though? You know, like your luck or something. I don't know. Somebody told me one time, and I was like, damn, I can't split the pole. It does feel weird. Have you ever even thought about that?
Starting point is 00:26:31 What? Splitting a pole? No. Splitting poles. No. Is it like when me and you were walking down the street, and we went on both sides of a tree and then kept walking? Never once have I thought about that.
Starting point is 00:26:47 of a tree and then kept walking like never never once have i thought about that like i had this roommate in college and we'd we'd split a pole but and then we'd be like talking about something and he'd forget and like run back and circle the tree and come all the way back it was the dumbest shit of all time but then i was like he's got a point i'm superstitious about dumb stuff like if i'm like running or something like that i'll, like, hear a car coming behind me. I'll, like, make sure I, like, pass a stop sign before it passes me, some shit like that. That's, like, how I pray. I'm, like, if I make this in the trash can,
Starting point is 00:27:16 like, everything will be okay. That's, like, how I deal with it. Like, if this car passes me before I stop this, before I go pass this, like, stop sign, like, I'm not gay i don't know you guys don't do that i mean i feel like i have little things like if i'm running and i'll like say i'll like go to the end of the street or whatever and like i'm supposed to turn around right there i'll have like but i feel like it's more ocd like i'll
Starting point is 00:27:44 have to like go and like touch like a stop sign i always have to touch the signs you know what i mean and i gotta touch everything i'm like a kid but i don't think that thing before you came in here yeah i did see that i still touch the door frames but i don't think that's superstitious though it's not me like doing it to like for good luck it's just like an ocd type i gotta hit that i touched the touch the plane on the outside before I get in. The plane? Yeah, like you know when you're walking through the plane, there's like the outside of you could touch it.
