Dude Dude what impressed me about your draft was that if you ask AI for like the top 20 writers of all time

it would have like picked somebody else's it would have been somebody else's list interesting so you out you convinced AI that you knew better

than AI did that's what's up and that's what AI actually wants which I think is true about people in general. We say this is our list, but then our wants, and then someone actually gives us what we want. I think we love that as people.

It's why we love art. We think we have our own ideas and our imagination, but don't you love to lend your imagination to someone and go for a little bit of a ride? Yeah. Just imagineatively get it doggy, dude, from a writer, dude. You know who I love to lend my imagination to? Christopher Nolan.

Oh, come on, bro. Dude, I showed you the clip, Jimmy Cameron. came out and said that Oppenheimer was whatever. Yeah. Because he's doing Hiroshima. Yeah, that's going to be interesting. I mean, has he done?

I guess he, oh, he did Titanic. So he's done historical. Disaster. Yeah. Do you think he's going to show the blast? I was thinking about that because it's not like Titanic where it can be like this slow unfolding thing. Maybe it can be.

Yeah. But I was like, I think he will. I think it's going to be gnarly. He's going to do like a, he's like, so what we wanted to do was I wanted to make this as real as possible. So we had an actual nuclear explosion and we do it. Oh, I think, did Nolan do that? He might have. I bet you he did. But he did, was it a real explosion? Oh, for sure. I'm sure he blew something up. Yeah. Because they do that.

No, I think Jimmy will take it all the way and he'll actually nuke Hiroshima again. Yeah. He's like, this is for the art. We killed 200,000 people and we filmed it on 6,000 cameras. We had set up. IMAX, 4K, 10,000, you know, whatever. Do you think Goddain O'Day-Lewis is just an actor? If he was a director, it'd be real awkward. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, we need to nuke. Jim Cameron, he's like, you know, I was talking to the studio.

We had some disagreements, and we met in the middle, and we decided just, I wanted to use thermonuclear, a hydrogen bomb, but we just decided to use one similar to the one they used in 1945. Yeah, and, you know, with the lens that we're using, it will actually be the exact same atomic power on camera, albeit not in real life. So I think we're going to have grand success. He has a fat sunburn. He's like, you know, I was a little bit close to the blast. Talking about bombs. Dude, someone in the chat just asked me if I'm NIMBY. Shut up, dude.

I think he probably learned the word NIMBY on this pod a few weeks ago. I hope so. And now he's saying it again. Wow. So, I mean, it's an interesting application. But dude, are you NIMBY? No. A lot of good shit happens in JT's dockyard, dude.

But dude, are you? I know, dude. I lived next to a halfway house. My bona fides are in check. I was chill with everybody there. You can build anything you want around me. That's your biz. Dude, my next door neighbor's a best buy. So I'm a freaking huge capitalist, dude. That's what such. Dude, we're having a possum problem in our neighborhood. Ooh. I like possums. Yeah, dude, my fiance was like, you know, there was a possum in our backyard. I'm like, are you being Nimbie? Yeah, that's NIMBY of your, of your fiancee. I told, yeah, stuck it to her. sunny growls at possums in my

possum likes to go along my fence at night sunny growls i'm like are you being nimbie dude sit dude lola goes crazy yeah i think the dog would lose to the possum in a fight i'm like dude you're gonna lose those things are like they're wild animals they're rugged dude in um in superman

the new one they have this great scene where there's the super dog and lex luther is torturing him by putting him like in a harness hanging him from a harness and there's a screen of just squirrels, so he's just running. Oh, that's funny. I'm like, that's totally low-lossy, which is me like, I was dying. Forever distract.

You said it was good, right? I loved it, yeah. I like his James Gunn's sense of humor, so I think he added a lot of, a lot of, he just made it fun. One thing, one of my one critique is I want Superman's powers to be more of like a wow to people. Like the world's so you used to be, they're like, Superman, we're over him. But like, I want the people to be like, holy shit, you know, and you don't get much of that. Yeah, you get a little dose. I thought the best, I enjoyed the movie.

Yeah, I thought it was fun. And I thought Mr. Terrific had the coolest action sequence. When he's playing, like, the reggae song, and he's kicking ass, I was like, dude, I was like eating pop when I had a smile from here to ear. Except the black dude, I heard he's awesome. He's great. He's great line readings. Yeah, he's solid. And another critique is, Lois Lane, she's kind of like, mean to Superman a little bit.

Like, she's like, she's like, I'm just bad with relationships. I'm like, well, you're dating Superman. So why you just not be mean to him? He's Superman. You know what I mean? I totally get it. It really bothered me. She's like, let's do an interview right now.

And she's like grilling him. She's like, what about your decision to interfere in this war? Is that really your decision to make? I'm like, shut up, Lois. Sorry to get negative No, I don't think that's negative at all I think that's interesting He put that in there

Because I do think that's Probably how Superman's Partner Because if you date Superman You can't be like Oh, you can't treat him like Superman be like Oh, you're the greatest

You kind of have to like Yeah Neg him to keep some Right To keep a little bit of power And autonomy in the relation Oh, for sure That's definitely the tactic

I didn't think about it that way dude Yeah you got a neg Superman wow Because yeah Everyone's just fawning of us Yeah or else and then he's super hog you got to kind of best him in the dome how about your boy bradley cooper in there dude just posting out crushing it he's in it

he's the dad yeah now you know that you like see that in the very beginning you do yeah yeah all right i didn't know that so i didn't know that sorry yeah the coo was not as big of a spoiler as a rebel oh that's true i mean you're still you're still got a billion spoilers up yeah so i told you there's an actor in this movie dude Did you know to prep for the movie, Bradley Cooper? You know, he plays Superman's dad to prep for it. He lived in the international space station for like a whole year.

Whoa. To like know what it's like to be intergalactic. Smart. You have to do that. It's as close to it as you could get. I'm sure his spine appreciated that. Yeah. Yeah.

Are those astronauts still stuck up in the space station? No, Trump got him back. He didn't really get much credit for it either. Trump and Elon got him back. Dang. They went up there right away and just, Nabdom. They're probably doing too much

other weird shit in the media just probably like distracting themselves they're doing so many distractions they're distracted themselves from their own success dude.

I remember I said some negative about Trump that we can people were like how come we didn't say anything about the space station I was like that's fair that's fair I was like

we're chugging through a lot of storylines exactly dude the new telenovela that is our society is a you know nonstop commentary

inducing okay I don't want to tease anything but I've got some questions for you guys not the questions this is a good time to transition I think I was taking us into the sewer with no direction.

We're in the sewer and I didn't have a compass. Yeah, so we have a new thing we're trying on this pod. It's a boys hang, but to give it a little structure, we each wrote 10 questions, five for each guy. So we're going to rotate. Maybe we'll do, how should we set it up? You want to do draft style? See who goes first?

Oh, okay, yeah, let's do it like that. All right, throw out some mods or evens. One, two, three, shoot. Oh, I'm last Oh, paper, rock, scissors, now Oh, yeah Do you want to call it on shoot? Do you call it?

Paper, rock, scissors, shoot. Mm-hmm. Paper, rock, scissors, shoot. Fuck. Oh, and then we should do A, and then we'll do, just make it competitive. We'll do a poll at the end

with the fans is who had the best questions. That's hilarious. Oh, nice. Yeah, we gotta have competition, dude. You do you had the best cue. Yeah, who had the best cues, yeah.

I'm looking at you, Eric, because... So, wait, JT, a little bit about these cues, because you were kind of just like, Like, hey, you just, you said to me, at least in my understanding, prep five cues, five for Chad, five for you. Yeah. And then that was it. So I could, my questions could have their own. It could be to get to know you better.

It could be to challenge you. It was wide open. It could be anything. Yeah. So are we going in rounds? Then do I ask you your question? Then I ask you your question for the first round. So we're never done it.

Yeah. Let's do it. Let's do it that way. Yeah, do one question for each of us and we'll go through all your questions. We'll bop back and forth. Okay, cool. So my question one for JT is. what is the difference between you and your partner that you value oh um what was that

sorry oh good what was it uh is this one of your questions you would technically call it it was a hiccup slash burt oh okay damn did you just chug a magic mind yeah that was the magic mind activating in you dude yeah twing just yes yeah you just drank like life yeah exactly do you're going to be so fucking dialed i think we have a lot of overlapping no a lot of complimentary traits i would say one is that she's more introverted than me two um she's way more into like home decor and like that sort of thing than i am um and three she has a box i got a dong legit that's was going to be my question but that's huge i love that all ladies sound very similar did both of them

have boxes both of them i find that um the home decor stuff can be a challenge in our relationship as much as i love a dank denza and i preach that here full disclosure whenever we talk furniture my wife calls it my furniture face and i make a face that looks like i'm deciding if i'm going to drop a nuke or not and it can be really labor i saw you post about that yeah this is funny It was rough. I was like, I mean, we've been trying to pick nightstands for months now. It took me, it takes me a while to remind myself like, because sometimes like the kids will take a nap and I'm like, all right, we should just sit down and chill. But then she'll start running around doing stuff and it'll make me kind of like a little anxious because I'm just like, dude, what's what's all the activity?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But then I got to remember that's how she relaxes is like by like getting rid of stuff, like cleaning out of space, trying something different like with like, you know, a lamp or a plant or something. I'm like, oh, that's her chilling. But sometimes I'm like, yeah, you know, no, just there's one version of chilling. It's sit your ass right there. Yeah, it's on the couch and there's like highlights on. And it's like, this is how we relax. Yeah.

I mean, that's something I had to learn, the opposite I had to learn where she's like, I always need to be doing something. and she's like she's like you know it's okay to like even on like a Sunday or something she's like you know it's okay to like not do anything for a day and I'm like what

I'm just sitting there and she's like watch dirty dancing with me I'm like I'll watch the three primary scenes then I have to get some of their stuff done I will watch the lift I will watch the no one puts baby in the corner and then I kind of want to watch the montage

when they're all having the I want to watch the pregnancy scene Yeah, I've been, I've been, I've taken it to heart, though, and I've actually, you know, been like, okay, you know, today I'm going to, like, I'm not very good at it, but I'm like, today I'm going to, like, sit and lay. I don't relax well, dude, I have my shoes. I wear my shoes in the house. Like, all, like, at like, like, at like 9 o'clock, I'll come home from work or whatever, shower, put shoes back on in shorts. Interesting. I like having shoes on, too. I just like it. I like to be ready, dude. Yeah, me too. that's very masculine yeah yeah that's what's up yeah they're boots i only wear boots in the house not when i'm hiking or working yeah okay my question for you chad what is the best thing your parents taught you

about life oh wow um because you've got a dank-ass mom and a very a prominent father can i can i say something for both of them i would hope you would um my dad you know he's taught me a ton of lessons I think the most recent one that I've taken to heart is, you know, we can be so, we can be so consumed with achievement and seeing like the, the rewards of hard work or, you know, whether it be in the form of money or, you know, items or status, whatever, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's Like, what you need to focus on is the pursuit of excellence. If you focus on the pursuit of excellence, then everything else will follow. And last year, I was like kind of like, I was stressed out. This is like around like Thanksgiving. I was stressed out.

And, and, you know, he's a successful surgeon and he's still working. You know, he just loves to work. And he's like, he's like, he's basically, he's, basically tell me, he's like, enjoy the ride, you know, enjoy the ups and downs. Like, it's, and it took the pressure off me in a, in a, in a surprising, I just wasn't expecting him to say that. So he's like, he's like, you know, enjoy, enjoy the ride, enjoy the ups and downs, enjoy the journey. It's not, you don't need to, you know, he's like, let's say if you're at the top, you know, there's a lot of downsides that come with that, where it's, and you see it

with people we, you know, we work with, they'll be like, people will be like, to us, they're like, oh, you're crushing it, you're so successful. They're like, yeah, but I'm getting attacked way more. I'm getting a lot more criticism. And so there's negatives to every part of where you're at. And so we shouldn't be always kind of looking to be like, I need to be there. Then I'll be okay because there's never a perfect place to be. I think you just kind of have to have like an acceptance or surrender to where you're at and enjoy it. Because if you think that other way, then you'll just be going through life kind of looking

ahead, you know, kind of like a dog chasing a squirrel, you know, maybe that's not a good analogy, you know, the carrot, the dangling carrot, whatever the fuck. you're just looking at the dangling carrot and you're never present anxious chasing yeah yeah yeah yeah that's cool I think it's so nice too when a like a like my dad will have moments like that where like he surprises I'll be like coming at it where I'm like dadding myself a little bit and then he'll come with like gentle advice yeah and I never see it coming so it's extra hard yeah I'm like whoa like yeah I didn't know you had that move dad yeah because I think as a son too you want to like you want to show you want to bring your dad kind of treats in a way not treats but like a gift in the form of like achievement

and you want to prove to him like dude i'm being tough yeah like i'm not i'm not being like sentimental i'm getting after it and then your dad's like it's okay to be sentimental and you're like yeah yeah yeah yeah he's like just chill and you're like oh fuck yeah because i'm like i'm like here's what in that and that and he's like why don't you just enjoy your spaghetti yeah i'll hang up the phone and that's when i fall apart yeah yeah like i like i didn't even know i need did it so bad. That's great, dude. My dad famously one time was like, said success is all that matters.

But you know what? We needed that message then because you were dumb asses. We were such slap dicks. We had never had jobs. We drove around and applied for five jobs at like video stores. And we felt good just because we applied. Yeah. Dude, that would be so fun working at a video.

It would have been really fun. There's some slap dicks already working there. So they're like, hey, we've got it covered. Yeah. You've got to find your own place to be slapdicks. but we were like his dad came home and we were like in the parking lot like stoked on ourselves thrown to Nerf football and then your dad was just like did you guys get jobs or like we applied for five he's like success is all that matters yeah exactly too that's awesome but it was

I remember I was like oh yeah yeah he was good because I was like yeah we should get some jobs he wasn't he like washing his he's watching his red Dodge Viper and his license plate was custom and it said hiss no yeah his license plate I'm not joking he had a red Dodge Viper and the license plate was piss you know he earned it though dude he did yeah that's what me he were just he did earn it and like it was and it's pretty hilarious and funny but yeah he was like that dude yeah that's incredible dude and then i would have to wash it every weekend dude get up wake up wash it um i think for my mom my mom uh the the it's kind of a two two full like the power of a smile

and the the idea that anyone can be your friend my mom my mom makes friends everywhere anywhere she goes and it was always kind of annoying growing up because we we would be at a place slows you down yeah we'd be at a place checking at a hotel you know at a store and she'd become friends with whoever's working there which is beautiful and amazing but then I'd be like mom can we go like we're at Disneyland but but it's she just has she she has such great energy around her and I try to like embody that because it's just so contagious and I think it's she just leaves like such a positive mark on everyone she interacts with she does do we sat next to your mom at your dank ass engagement party with your dankass

fiance dude what a pleasure talking with her and spending like a nice afternoon oh yeah yeah so nice her and my dank dank ass wife were just bonding and talking I was just listening chilling it was so great she's the best you feel like every time I talk to your mom, I feel like I can see her heart. Yeah, she's just, yeah, she's an angel on earth. And a great voice. Even when she called the other day on the phone,

I was like, oh, I felt like my mom called. I was like, oh, very nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But it is amazing. My mom used to always do that too. Like, dude, we'd like order at McDonald's and a drive-thru with like five kids in the thing. Yeah.

They're like, what do you want? I'd be like, well, we just came from, you know, Andrew's graduation and he's pretty happy, so we're kind of hungry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And we're like, dude, dude, just get the burgers. and when your parents would do it you'd like have a friend with you

or the one when your parents would go out at night my mom and dad would always go they'd be at a party they'd be like we're at the party at the Brown's house JT do you remember Max? Max is here JT talk to Max on the phone and they would give the phone to some random drunk guy

I'd be like 11 he'd be like JT how are you buddy Yeah I don't want to talk to you. The other side of that's got to be so amazing. And I'd be yelling, I'd be like, do not give the phone to Max. Do not give it my mom. Bang.

You got to pause like TGI Friday programming, like, hey. Nice, dude. Great answer. I enjoyed those. You're up, dude. You got more. Oh, do I go through all of mine. We're going to cook through all of you.

Oh, we're doing all of them. Oh, okay. I think so, right? Just to make it. I'm trying to think what's the fastest way to it. Okay, should I go then? Maybe it's probably good to have variety of that. Okay.

I'll go. Then you do all like your round ones. You do all your round ones and we round twos? Oh, okay, cool, cool. Yeah, let's do it that way. All right, JT. Yeah. If your emotions were an R&B group, what would their name be and why?

This is good. If my emotions were an R&B group. I mean, one of them. I know one of them. What is it? Horny. Oh, yeah. One of them's got to be horny to it.

I was very horny. Still am. Yeah, maybe horny and mad Which is how with R&BX group's title go It'd be the horny mads Like no horny and mad Yeah

Yeah Because I feel those two emotions It's probably the way I deal with How I react to stuff Is like I'll try to put it through one of those two hoses Right I'll be like either like Oh man this is making me horny

I'm like I was kind of pissing me off Yeah That's kind of how I get back to level. Yeah, horny and mad. Come see us. We'll be at Staples in the next few months. Dude, yeah. Corny and Mad is going to be at SoFi.

I would say, uh, bone tugs and Charmany. Oh. Dude, that's great, dude. That's great, dude. That's sick. That's fire, dude. Uh, Strider, what would your villain origin story be? Oh, this is incredible.

You have to have a good backstory. I think, um, one of my favorite, I guess he's more of an anti-hero is Daniel Plainview. An amazing villain that I connect with. Maybe the guy we're looking at a few good men. Maybe, and also Ed Harris, I think he's great

because he, like, has a backstory where he's, like, in The Rock. He wants his soldiers to get paid just to what he goes about it. And he does bitch out at the end. You know, you end up being a good guy. But I think my backstory would be I was kind of heart,

sort of like a captain in America. People saw that I love my wife, you know, pretty chill, dude, relax. And then they said, we want to give you these superpowers. Then I got them. And then I was wronged. I turned out that my government turned against me. They maybe got someone else in power that I don't appreciate. And then I turn on them. And I think that I should be like Thanos and govern the entire world. And I would do a better job if I just made all the decisions on my own. And I would think that once I got rid of all the people and murdered everyone, kind of like the snap in Thanos.

Yeah. That the world would be a good place. So I think my intent would be grand peace, but I would just be working to mow people down. So I think, I guess my backstory would be that I was given powers by the government sort of Wolverine style, Captain America's style, and then ended up being found out

that the people that gave me my powers wronged a lot of people. Wow. And then I would turn to evil? What would your name be? Freaking. Doctor, it's got to be a doctor. Doctor. Dr. Sni.

Dr. Sni? Yeah, Dr. Dense. What did you say, Dr. what? I said Dr. Snipe. Dr. Snipe's pretty good. Yeah. Yeah, and then I did, my ultimate power is my vision. I can see, because I think I can see everything, and I just snip.

I always think of the coolest superhero, be a guy who just said, perfect eyes because I'd give him great reflex and he'd be able to like a great bull's eye kind of shooter that'd be great and then his best friend is just made out of something indestructible oh dude someone like calling feral he's got a cool character when he plays the bull's eye guy but yeah they've done it a little bit with like hawk eye and him and like the guy from a suicide squad but they haven't done it good yet yeah they really haven't the the feral one was a little dr snipe is good and maybe that's it i just snipe figures like i don't take out swast of people i take out leaders that i think i need to be gone but

then of course there's a butterfly effect from that and i learn and it's and it's bad and i shouldn't take justice into my own hands you're you're a uh um geopolitical uh anarchist not anarchist um vigilante yeah that goes that's cool yes someone in the chat said dr drill station that's my that's my that's my order story backstory i was interrupted while whacking off and never have gotten to bust sense and so i'm really edgy yeah yeah all right i'm up chat you're up first yeah one of my cues if you had to choose between one would you pick surfing or philosophy oh man tough surfing or philosophy wow surfing or philosophy wow Um

Tits McGee Oh man You know because both I use both to try and get into that same mindset That's why I was thinking of it Yeah Fuck that's a toughie This is a good question

I think I'd go philosophy Because I can use that for my whole life I think I can find I think I can find the benefits from surfing and, you know, I find the meditative parts of surfing and the tan you get from surfing and running and lifting. Sector 9 boarding. In sector 9 boarding.

You know, I hit a fat just parking structure and just carve it up. One of those circle ones, like gone in 60 seconds. Yeah, yeah. There's one in the, I live next to a community college, and I just rip that. I might do that today. And then, yeah. It'd be tough, though, you know, to not be able to dance in the Osh. But, yeah, I think philosophy, you should take that wisdom throughout your whole life.

So, yeah. What is surfing without philosophy after all? Dude, I know. And that's, you know, that's kind of something a bit I'm trying to figure out because it's like surfers go to the gym now. What is that? And it's like, has surfing lost its philosophy? Well, I don't want to see, I don't want to see. I don't want to see

Kelly Slater or Felipe Toledo doing split squats No I want to see them shredding boning and having assaye That's the philosophy

You know Even Moscow I mean I'm gonna I'll text him in the day Be like dude are you even a surfer anymore You go to the gym Yeah I think of him more as a state guy

Before I think of him as a surfer Wow I could do You should tell him that I will. All right, Strider, you're up. All right, dude, what do you think your vertical leap is today? Oh, my gosh. Probably, probably 15 inches.

All right, well, let's see. Can you jump right here and we'll film? How high do you think this is? How high is two 12 packs? Can we film it? Do you have a take measure, Jay? I don't know if I can land on it. Okay, so we're going to say that's like 18 inches,

and we'll verify that with a, uh, we'll look up this thing and then we'll put in a kairon on the video so we know where you're at all right you ready it's one jump dude you don't have to stretch that much you're gonna get hurt dude should we stack all these magic mines and see how i can jump it do we have his feet in the frame jake oh you're filming it secondarily thank you jake dude yeah you hit the sprinkler whenever you're ready strider dude that was that looked good that look good. There we go.

Wow. That might have been 10 inches. That looked good, dude. Thank you. Where did you think you were out there? Less than 15. I said 15 originally. I think I was at, I'm at less than 15 inches.

Dude, I mean, dude, you really disrespected gravity there. Thank you, dude. That's what my villain back sort to be, dude, just trying to get anti, trying to catch air. Yeah. That's my thing. I can't catch air and I try to take out all dudes to. catch fat erics i'm jealous yeah yeah and they're dangerous is what i say dude dude that was huge okay so there's a second part now that was it okay okay that was the second part can you jump for us

all right so i'm moving on to round two yeah that was a great question dude we got physical that was great um okay so do i go for jt first okay um this is kind of tough as a multi-parter so i'm sorry uh what are five people in places that define america to you so okay i'm just going to combine them five total yeah like American culture or the like

like what is like okay we should send these questions to each other in advance I know yeah because it's tough

to go off and fly yeah and we could have way better answers we thought about him

five people that define America I'll go with someone out of places yeah for places

I'll go Miami hell yeah yes that's six um Disneyland that's a good

of smart Yeah, yeah. Dude, thank you. And, uh, thank you. And something like super, uh, Disneyland actually kind of might check that box. Um,

the chat's giving me some good stuff that I might fold into this too. Okay, so I got Disneyland, Miami. Miami is a great one. So much culture down there. Yeah. In terms of Martha Stewart. That's huge. Yeah, Martha Stewart's a good one, dude.

Can you imagine eating her butt back in the day? Oh, I'd be so nice. It'd probably be delicious. Yeah. Such a good recipe. Well, this tastes like pumpkin pie. You know, it's getting annoying people. I think you've got to go to Donald Trump.

Today, yeah, yeah. Dude, I'm reading The Art of the Deal. Dude, I love that. Educate yourself. And then I want to know. And then I think number five. This is a good. good list yeah it's firing me up i'm gonna do all these things except just like like from outside

like an alien came down and they were like hey you have to just tell me about america real quick in five words i'll tell you about it yeah i'll tell you about it right now i can't do it drop i'll tell you about it right now maybe monica loewinsky oh that's a good one too yeah that's a really good one that's great that'd be an interesting essay dude then i want to see your essay and then you those are your five paragraphs you get you have your your setup and your five paragraphs you explore each of the places and the person then you have your summary I'd read that essay if you were an essayist

that'd be interesting I mean OJ would have been another good one that'd be a great oh that'd be a really good one I don't have race in there so maybe I'll pop out you have Miami though a lot of culture let me just do those six I'll just do and then let me pop out Miami I'll take Miami out that's huge I'll do OJ I think that's a great list

I think you've captured America Thank you Chad, sorry I'm sitting over here being a bonehead Okay Chad, your second question What would you like to build

If you knew how? Can it be Is it something that has to exist? It can be anything Can't be fantasy? You're building, I guess you can build an ideology You can build something fantasy Or you can build an end table if you want

Or a nightstands And then give them to me It's been taking a long time oh man dude okay here's what i would build here's what i would build i would build an iron man suit yes oh yeah yes that's awesome yeah that's awesome yeah this is good man suit so you can travel anywhere you can withstand impacts you know you're bulletproof you can get anyone Where, but also it's a ride. It's fun.

It's the thrill. You know, in America, we need thrills. Yes. We need to go fast. Yes. And what's better than going fast in your own suit? On top of that, you know, some add-ons, you do have, you do have the, what's the, A Jarvis.

You do have a Jarvis, but it's in, it's in the voice of. Scott Johantson from her. Okay, sorry, this is your thing. Sorry. I mean, yeah, it's in anti-Armis' voice. Nice. And then... She was the voice in Blade Runner, right?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I think. Yeah, Joe, yeah. Yeah. And then you put the wall, that's hilarious. You're in an Iron Man suit, it's Anandaharmus. If you need entertainment, you can only watch the Rocky movies. And then, you know, you got sound system. It's only stuff that pumps you up.

I'm talking. Reed, Eric Pridz, Avichi, Evichy, limp biscuit. And then, you know, there's a little thing, if you're going on a long trip, it'll just like tug your hog. Oh, that's nice.

That's nice. And then when you bust, it'll just spray out. And then, and then and then if you need food, you know you've got like just endless um endless um endless um endless um endless just in and out that's smart yes good yeah yeah this is great and then and then there's also uv lights but not too much the way you get burned but you just maintain a bronze because you're in a suit you

can't bronze but you are getting a bronze while you do it yeah I'm glad I'm glad I asked you that I'm glad you asked me that. Maybe with AI we can make that. Dude, in this scenario, you can do it. Yeah. All right, you're up, Chad. All right. J.T.

As a kid, what do you think he'd be doing at this stage in your life? As a kid. I think I knew I'd have a family. Um, outside of that, I always thought I was going to be a teacher. Oh. Dude, I was thinking that yesterday. I was like, you, you would, you would crush as a teacher. I think I, I was like, and it was also the only job I saw regularly.

So I was like, oh, I'll probably just do that. And I was like, oh, man, if I was a teacher, I would have done this different. I would have done that, like this teacher. Like this, when you have a really good teacher growing up, too, it really is so impactful. Because you only know how your parents live. Yeah. And then you meet another adult, and they're like, this is how I see the world. Yeah.

And then, you know, like, that stuff is, might not work forever, but it's really meaningful when you hear it and see it. So I always wanted to do that. I think you as, I think you as like an English teacher in high school or as an English professor in college or film, that would, people would just, like, be begging to go to your class. It would have been funny to you because I had the lowest GPA in my high school. high school because they would give you your class rank right so when i went to school with strider before i got kicked out i was i wasn't last but i was 435 out of 442 yeah yeah yeah but he was smarter than everyone just didn't do your homework you just turn to your homework me and me and a teacher would have been like when i would tell teachers i wanted to be a teacher they'd like dude you don't

come to class yeah yeah yeah yeah but dude i think you give like an unconventional uh style of teaching that people would love oh that's very kind thank you yeah it would have been cool Dude, and you know when like you see your teacher outside living their own real life? Like at the mall, the weird is. Stop being alive. Yeah. But dude, they'd see you outside in your real life

and you'd be like slinging kettlebells or something and the kids would be like, dude, my teacher's a badass. My teacher, like, do you be doing like kids? Well, that was cool. When you had Jack, like, Kisenza was strong and like I remember Jordan Sullivan tried to challenge him to, he's like, I'm stronger than you. I'm stronger than you.

I'm stronger than you. We were all like, we went bananas. We were like, oh my God. And that was a big risk by Kisenza. because Jordan was like on steroids and he's a big big boy yeah and yeah he throttled him and he like death metal dude steroid is a freshman in high school that's 6-6-250 and listens to death metal that's a scary kid dude he was a hot mom he was dude he was real smart because I went to junior high with him he was like AP everything really yeah he was

crazy smart his parents were cool his parents were cool they were awesome were like leather jackets his mom had like a pixie cut they had a good sense of humor yeah they were solid much love to the Sullivan's yeah great great family. Strider. Sexually. Do you consider yourself a Dom or a sub? Sub.

My wife in bed is constantly telling me slow or soft or relax. Slow down. Do it like this. A lot. But doesn't that mean you're being Dom and she's because you're hitting it like hard? I guess I don't know what a Dom's pace is,

but usually I can't answer because I do have a gag in my mouth so I can't be like, hey, is this right? Um, but, uh, no, there's no question. Oh, that's why I called you that one time and you was just mumbling. Yeah, exactly. I'm like, hold on, dude. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Then I had to like signal to my wife.

Yeah. Uh, I had to do our safe signal. Yeah. It's actually, it's an opening car to margarine. And you were like, we were like, dude, what is it? You're, I was just bobbing for apples. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

I had a cover for myself. But like, my wife makes me wear that around the house always. So do you think you're, do you genuinely think you're a sub? Yes. And do you think that's just because you let somebody else dictate what the tempo is? What makes you think you're a sub? Because when we're bone...

You know, maybe just because we communicate really well, I think. So maybe we're like very give and take, but I don't... Had you had... Probably because when we're having sex, I always go, how do you want it? I say that a lot. I go, how do you want it? And then my wife communicates well. But then honestly, sometimes she's a great loving partner.

She'll go, hey, do you want it like this? Because she knows some positions that I like, her on top. This is making me uncomfortable. And that's usually what I want. These questions are meant to make us uncomfortable and challenge. Before you, I don't bust. Have you ever had sex with other people before you may have you had sex with other people? Okay, I think I knew that.

Okay. Were you, what was your? I was young and not really experienced. Right. You were just like a guy who got behind the seat of a sports car, but you're like, you don't have your driver's license yet. Joe Pesci Casino. Right.

Just. Just. And. Um, yeah. But I would say this, the sex that we have isn't too much in those archetypes. Although I guess, do you think every relationship has to have that or sexual encounter there's someone who's leading and following like a dance? Probably.

But I would say it's, it's more subtle. It's more like, it can flip. Yeah. Yeah. People are switches they call them. People can be sub and, um. Yeah. It's much more subtle.

Yeah. Okay. So probably Marco's the dom. Sorry. I feel like I've tried to be like, who is more likely to be. tied up you or your partner you know what probably i would probably say my partner would be like hey would you like to try this and then she would be like oh i i would get tied up and i'd be like oh yeah i'm down to try that okay yeah but also if she wants to tie me up i'd be like i don't know

i don't know if i'm into that you know that's fair you don't have to be into it all right to jt first um if you had a clone how would you treat him Good. Yeah, probably nicer than I do myself. I thought you would say that. Would you guys hang out? Go to the beach? I think, you know, there was a time I wouldn't want to hang out with me? I think I would actually like it now. Would you do some duplicity Michael Keaton things where you'd be like, hey man, you need to be here and I just got to, I'm going to go to the gym and chill.

Oh, that would be nice. But yeah, you know, I'd get, I'd have FOMO. Whatever they were doing, I'd be like, I'd kind of want to switch spots. But I would feel bad directing them. I'd want them to live their life as they saw fit. I wouldn't want them to be like a tool for me. I think that's huge. I think that is the crux of the answer to the fact that you wouldn't make them a tool for you.

You'd give your clone autonomy. Yeah, totally. I'd like hope that they want to like hang out with me and work with me. But if they didn't want to, I'd feel a lot better knowing they were happy. Love that. Yeah, why would you want to create like a Frankenstein monster and then like, you know, uh... Inslave it. And yeah, give it a shit life.

Chad that's a good It's a great answer I love that Would you get jealous of your clone Yeah if their life was like crazy good And like way better than mine I'd probably feel a little bit like A like why didn't I do that And then B I'd be jealous

But I think there's I don't judge myself too much for having jealousy As long as I don't let it take the wheel Would you This is dark Would you consider killing your clone And taking a spot no if they were like just crushing it in life

nah because honestly I think that would make me the clones bitch because it changed me my clone made me into someone that isn't me and then I'm now a clone of something else interesting

Chad would you ever be frozen if promised you could come back like Walt Disney style and you know you'd come back in the future um what would you no because I think

um when you're frozen is it like you're sleeping or are you just stuck like what's the movie Demolition Man style yeah you're just you're I think it's like you're under amnesia almost yeah yeah I guess uh anesthesia and you don't know when you'd come back

and you don't know the state of the world. You could come back and it could be you and fucking. No, I don't, I don't, I don't, uh, no, I, I, so there's something about the idea that, that people want to be immortal. Yeah. Rubs me the wrong way because it's not the natural way of things. And you see like that one guy, Ray Kurzweil, he's like, I want to be immortal that you upload my consciousness.

I'm like, well, you know, if death could be the end, but it could also not be. And then if you're like, just stuck here. here um you know i don't know i don't i don't i don't uh i don't believe uh i don't believe i don't think we should mess with nature that way you're very natural about stuff too like parts of aging you're more comfortable with than like i am and like you're very like you're kind of believe it's meant to be yeah yeah and um yeah i think uh i personally believe that death is in next great adventure nice that's a fucking great philosophy to have that's a great belief system yeah i'm gonna adopt that it's true isn't it's peter pan right is it i think that i think that's where that

quote is from oh really but dude honestly i swear to god i wasn't trying to call it you might have come up with it independently thanks dude a good move is to just say something kind of smart or if you're worried something won't play off well yeah MLK said that attribute it yeah yeah it's huge move you you've been doing that a lot i do that all the time yeah that's how you protect you smart. Dude, I think we actually skipped my second cue. Oh, shit. Sorry. Oh. No, all good. Chad, you're up. You're not gay

in a very non-homophobic way. You're just not gay. Knowing that, if you had to pick a guy for your dad to sleep with, who would you pick? Ronald Reagan. Oh, nice. Dude, he would like that, dude. Yeah, just plowing Reagan. Your dad's going to call me a couple days to be like, appreciate that, son.

Yeah, yeah. I heard you speaking on me. Yeah, dude, did you hook me up with Reagan? Where's dad? He's blowing Reagan right now. Mr. Kroger, bend over that wall. All right, Strider, Europe. What do you miss most from living with your siblings? Dude.

Honestly, four-player bond. Gold and I, four-player, it was fucking amazing, dude. Because you have three brothers, too. So you guys had a full lineup. With a full squad. And that was like, the prime was like that and then was N64 to Dreamcast, just gaming together and then always like, you always kind of had a buddy like, dude, you want to go on a bike ride? You got to do this. I guess flip side, it was tough to get alone time and snacks were tough. Like everyone would eat your shit. But like, yeah, gaming and chilling. And I'm extrovert. So I was lucky with that way. And with the age gap, because Andrew's the oldest, Matt's the young, was there a time, like it must have, you guys must have been waiting for Matt to get good enough at video games. And that was tough with sports. because like are like Andrew and Greg were good I would usually team up with like

it'd be like because Andrew's the oldest he'd probably be Matthew me and Greg and it was never really fit because he was just too young right he'd just get dominated too hard so yeah if he would have been we should put him on some HGH I should have really talked to my parents

can we get him on some HGH get them on some age him up a little bit because he's like is he 10 years younger than Andrew yeah about almost that's tough to do sports together yeah but gaming dude it's so isn't he the best gamer or no?

Oh yeah, Matt's ridiculous. He's the best gamer, yeah. Really? Isn't it kind of annoying how it goes? Like, the younger brother's better at gaming? It pisses me off. My brother's always better at video games with me. Wow.

Dude, one time I played his boxing game all the time. First time I played my brother, he beat me. I was so mad. I was, like, arguing with him. He kicks me out of his room and he just goes, hey, keep practicing. Oh. Dude, there was a favorite time. I guess Matthew and Aden have a story where, like, me and Brooks were playing them two

and two-on-two Halo. And Brooks is a good gamer. He's really good. This was Halo 1, which I was actually decent at. and Matthew and Adam were beating our ass and me and Brooks got so mad that we locked them out of the house and both them we go hey guys let's go play basketball and we locked him out of the house

we're like fuck those kids dude oh you locked him out yeah we locked him out honestly dude locking my sibling out of the house getting from carpool and running to the door and being like fuck you you're locked out it was a great thing to do to my sibling dude you know what's fun thing is

we'd be swimming I'd pants my brother put his trunks in the freezer Oh, that's huge. Yeah. Dude, I remember, see, to freeze them, you have to wet them first. Yeah, so he'd be swimming and pants him. My cousins, my female cousins, froze my boxers and shit. I was on bears.

So I grabbed their, like, underwear and went to freeze it, but I didn't wet it first. So my cousin opens the fridge and she goes, oh, just my really nice and cold. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And, like, made fun of me. She, like, put it against her face. She's like, it feels nice. And I was so humiliated. Oh, man.

Brutal. All right, Chad, you're up. Okay. J.T., if your sexual vibe were a fast food restaurant, what would the name be and why? Oh, five guys. Oh, dude. That's fucking sick. Fuck, yeah, dude.

I don't even think you need to explain that. You could sexualize a lot of fast food places. In and outworks. Dairy queen. Taco Bell? Yes. All right. Uh,

Ferberger King, dude. Furber King, Sonic the Cock. Strider. Which decade do you think you should have been born in? Oh, baby. Since I'm a lameo. I would have gone.

Dude, I'm, I, I mean, dude, I'm a big World War II guy. I know, that's what I was thinking. I would have loved to have been in the 101 and probably just gotten killed from flack and just died in a plane right out of the gate. I don't think you would have done. Why didn't you just join up now then? I'm a huge bitch. I can't even camp, bro.

Going to war is camping with people trying to kill you. I don't mean, I'm not even trying to call you. I'm just calling out people in the way. I was like, dude, if I would have been born in that time period, I would have been in the war. I'm like, well, you could join wars. And they're still going on. True. So true.

Yeah, exactly. And there still is an airborne. Dude 300 First Airborne Still is a unit Dude you're a Per trooper

Dude I hate hikes I don't I never skydye No Strider Strider The lights green Go Strider

Oh no No chance Dude no No chance And they just Get pushed out Oh I mean

You know There's just something About that I don't know Just the way It looks On movies I know

It looks so glorified It looks so glorified yeah that's a really great question dude dude you go back anytime like you get a toothache back in the 40s you're fucked yeah they gotta pull it's gonna hurt so bad yeah um do I have the knowledge I have now because then I just go back to like the 90s and just invest I don't think about that no yeah that's like kind of trickery

like doing Biff from back to the future yeah that's no you you have the same personality just sort of anachronistic and just go back and like okay so you're still strider yeah you just strided not with this knowledge though you're just strider being born in you know 1969 i'd still want to go do some chill shit i don't know man probably meant to just be now but i think my quick answer would be w w deuce let's get it just be chilled dude all right who's up chat or strider you're up okay here we go i'm on round four right now yeah we skipped me once but it's all gravy okay i'll do two back to back or something j t yep what is funny about yourself that makes you smile when you think of it um

i do you think it's funny when i like get into confrontations and like i'll laugh about like arguments i've had with people out in the world because um i'll just kind of argue with people in the world not like they're my enemy, but more like they're my friend I've known for a long time. And so I'll kind of assume a familiarity with them and just kind of argue with people like that. And like I was yelling at, I was telling Chad, this 16 year old cut me off and he was with his chick and they, they started it with me and he started like mimic me doing a loser. And I just started yelling at him, calling him a pussy and a bitch and all this stuff. And I was cracking up for like an hour after.

And if I saw that kid again, I would like laugh and be like, dude, we're like, I really appreciate that we had that fun together. And what's someone else that cracks me up about myself? Yeah, probably like when I'm, because my instinct is to be very accommodating to people. So anytime I'm like petty, it sounds bad, but I think it's like me trying to pursue balance. Anytime I'm petty, like Friday beers asked us to do a sketch. And I found out Willie D. was going to be in it. And, like, what Willie D did to me isn't even that bad. But the fact that I've turned it into, like, were enemies for life because of it,

it makes me laugh a lot. And I, when I, when Friday Beers was like, yo, do this sketch. And I like all those guys and stuff, and I think they're super talented. But when I saw his name on the call, I was like, sorry, guys, I will not be in a sketch with Willie D. And I was, like, dramatic. I was like, good luck with your sketch. I'll see you soon.

And, like, emailed everybody. And I probably do. Like, yeah, I kind of like Willie D, probably. but like it's fun to me to have a uh that always cracks me up whenever i think about i'll just start dying laughing i love those those like yeah like those little moments that you can give to yourself and just tickle and just being aware on it because you have a grand sense of self-awareness i feel like oh that's i wanted to ask you that too because i was like it's kind of funny but i do like especially with you y'all at the six year i do love when you're challenging someone or asking and when we

were growing up together you'd always keep us in check me and like for all i'd be like do j t's keeping us in check and like you would you you would call us on bullshit we wouldn't really even recognize yet but you'd have a great smile, you do this hilarious, like, sideways, when seeing us do it was so funny, dude. He's all me do that to those religious people in Spokane. Oh, yeah, that was amazing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Trying to convert us and I was

like, okay, yeah, yeah. Dude, this kid was just coming up with, like, the book that his like weird pastor told him to just go say with people, like, what do you think heaven looks like? And J.T's like, what do you think it looks like? And dude, it was so great, dude. And this kid was just losing it. Yeah, yeah. Okay, Chad.

sorry this one's a multi-parter not that bad what three wishes do you have for your genie in a bottle oh man three wishes for my genie in a bottle oh I mean do I go selfish or noble here tis the question dude I would wish for prosperity for all very nice

I would wish to have my own island oh that's cool with yeah I wish that yeah oh yeah be careful having your own island these days I wish I had my own island in the Bahamas I wish I had my own island with perfect waves a banana boat ready to go oh yeah and in and out and an Arawan um do you do you think one of the not the worst parts but one of the really sad things about Epstein is that has given a bad

name to islands I think it's the worst thing yeah it's like now if you have a private island people assume yeah it's for doing bad things when in fact you just want to be healthy banana boat yeah well it's like it's like if you say to people hey

I want you to come to my island they're going to assume oh is it because you're trying to do nefarious things and you're like no I literally I have in and out right there. It's the opposite. Actually, I have an island where we only do good things. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And they're like, well, that's what the last guy said. And it turned out it was, you know, sexually predatory. And you're like, yeah. Yeah. No, it's, it's. That's not what I mean by island culture. No, it's literally, it's, it's like the forever surf trip. Oh.

With the pleasures of L.A. that we love inserted. The pleasures of L.A. I think we know what that means. Yeah. Yeah, you can figure that one out. Audience. Third wish. It's tough not to just be like,

I wish I could eat Jennifer Lopez's butt. I think you should say that. You should do that, dude. That's a nice wish, dude. I wish to go back to when I was 25 and just to, you know, let me have an all you can feast buffet on Jennifer Lopez's butt.

But very nice. Very balanced. Very nice. This is very good. I mean, you gave everybody prosperity and then you got some butt as a reward. That sounds about right. Yeah, dude. You nailed that.

Would you want her to come showered or not showered? I'd ask for the genie to give me both. The genie would accommodate that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Smart. Oh, man.

Sorry to get so horny on the pod. is chat up i think chad you're up we're horny guys not me though you're not horny you're not horny you're not horny have you ever been horny no i'm not a horny guy one dude one night when our friend we never tried to hug up with her and she's just our really good buddy but one time me and we we went out drinking with our friend uh king she's the best like coolest chick ever super pretty but we were just always just buddies and she gave me and strider a ride home and we got back Me and Shreder were both, like, clearly horny now. We're like, King, want you come inside, dude?

And then she was like, no, I'm good, dude. Yeah, when I'm horny, it's not a good, it's not a, some guys get horny, it's a sight to see. It's nice.

You know, they dance. They're swath. Yeah. When I get horny, I'm automatically 40 year old on a boat. I think, I think, talking to the staff. Yeah. Everyone, when it's, when it's last call, last call horniness is always, it's sad. It's desperate.

It's the early night horniness. You can be like, no, I'm just a cool guy. I'm just making some connections. Hey, if it happens, it happens. But then when they go last call, you're like, okay, okay. It's heavy breathing. Yeah, okay. Hey, what do you?

Nice to meet you. nice to meet you and she's like all right dude yeah yeah yeah i want you come back to my play i remember i brought a girl back and i had a snake is my college place and she's like what is that i'm like it's just our snake cream python and she's like i can't be in a house of the snake i'm like fuck come on i got to have sex you go anywhere yeah yeah well i just go back to your place yeah yeah there's a diner open we can do that Do you want to check out my car? Oh, they're doing construction next door.

They have a porta potty. Dude, your snake was called Cream Python. Yeah. Hilarious. That's awesome. He's a good guy. Did I already ask a question to someone? No.

That counts your questions. Sorry, I did. Okay. J.T. If you were a king, what would be your biggest demand? What would your biggest demands be both in the castle and? as a ruler. Okay.

So like in the king archetypes, like there's like Warrior King, lover magician, the king's responsibility is the fertility of the land. So you're responsible

for the prosperity of all. I would make sure everyone who worked in the castle was doing like, oh, at least like one day a month was working a regular gig outside of the castle

just to undercover boss it and stay in touch with what's going on with the proletariat or like just whatever you call like the regular folk in the kingdom and then what would be my demands of the people yeah so that was your demand

in the castle that's my demand in the castle is you've got to get out of the castle at least like once a week go work a regular gig um my demands for people outside of the castle dude I would probably do some kind of mandatory, similar, just mandatory civic service at some point. I think countries where you got to do like a year working for like the Gov or something

like that or being in the military, some permutation of that. I just want to basically what I'm trying to do is make everybody feel like they're invested in everybody's situation and we're all collectively pulling in the same direction. And then when everyone does that and everything's going hunky dory, once a year, a big celebration of moi for all the good rules I put in, guys. I'm, like, embarrassed to be there. I'm like, no, no, come on, don't make me do this.

I'm reluctant, but everyone's like, please, we must shower you with praise. And I'm like, all right, all right. And then my fucking super hot, smoking hot wife is like, oh, dude, you should just get head from, like, you know, a couple of visiting concubines. And I'm like, no, no, no, no. But, like, just her saying that and the concubines being like, I wouldn't actually get the head. I'm not going to do that. But I want them to, like, just talk about how bad they want to give me head. That's cool.

I want to ride J.T's cock. I want to ride J.T.'s cock. That was supposed to be bicycle like king. J.T.'s cock, said he. Strider. Indeed. Which celebrity's voice is your inner voice? Nick Cage.

A thousand percent. Nick Cage. Can you give an example of like... I talk to myself? I do that around the house. like I'll be like showering and then I'm like hmm all right yogurt or banana after I um be yogurt in the banana or excuse me banana in the yogurt god I'll literally go do something I'll like make a shot like I'll throw like a wrapper away in the trash can and I'll go god when I hit it I literally do that all the time and if I'm like trying to do an impression or

something like that I'll talk in my inner monologue in a different voice that's cool sometimes but Nick Cage is my default persona. He just has the most fun cadence for me to talk in. I think, yeah, it's very weird, you know. I don't know, but I love it. He's totally his own guy. He seems like he's having a good time, too. He's great, dude.

One time I, me, I shouldn't, I generally shouldn't talk about guests at the hotel, but I might have shared this before, but I checked him in at the hotel one time, and he had a bag and the zipper was broken. and he's like careful the zipper doesn't work and I have precious stones in there

I was like dude you are you like if I would imagine like I was going to make up a story about what you would say and then I looked in the bag and like you know like when Knott's Berry Farm like when you cut up in like geodes

it looked like he had like geodes in there what stones do you have and why do you have stones and why are you checking into a hotel with stones Yeah I've checked in a billion people No one's ever checked in

Oh careful I have gems in there Hilarious Yeah so it's just so much fun To talk that way Yeah I'm driving in traffic Someone cuts me off

You fucking cock sucker Yeah yeah yeah Why'd you do that You must be in a rush That's okay I forgive you Fuck Yeah

All right here we go Fuck Chad you believe in self-improvement More than trying to change others Based off of that what do you think is the lamest thing you've ever witnessed a person do the lamest thing I witness a person do just in my personal life

oh yeah yeah I guess in person would be solid but also online works great I can also give you some time to think about it and go to strider real quick and then come back yeah I'll think about it yeah all right strider you have a self-proclaimed bitch stomach yes a lot of food has been eliminated from your diet mm-hmm is there a food you feel like you're really missing out on or is there a food you want to try but you're afraid mm-hmm so

there's both I miss out on Wahoos I used to love going to Wahus I used to love getting bonsai bowls I don't know what it is there but every time I go there. I remember, I was with you the day it turned on you. We were driving L.A. And we went to the Wahoos at the Spectrum and Irvine. And I remember afterwards, we were driving and you got sad. And you're like, that might be it for Wahoos, dude.

Yep. It's off the rotation. And we used to go to Wahoo's in summer. We'd go almost every day. Some of my greatest memories there. And memory has linked to sense and taste and smell. Yeah, Rattitooie shit. I'm robbed of a lot of those memories because of that.

So I just think I really miss the Wahoo Bonsai Bowl. But it just did me dirty, man. It just did me. I'd go on the bathroom and I go, Whoops! Nick Cage style. And then I would say, what was the other part of that question?

Is there a food you want to try, but you're afraid? You know, I'm such not an adventurous eater. Like, I don't, I have no interest in an escargo. No, and I'd be like risky food. So I guess it's sort of a boring answer, but like, I will never try it.

Does it, does it, you have to, like, when I go out with you, sometimes we'll eat, I'll, like, try to, I'll, I'll, like, try to force food on you. Yeah, you had, Seattle. You had, like, this interesting fish. Yeah, we went to that sushi place and we were doing, like, weird eggs and, like, like, like, fish eggs and different stuff. And I was like, you got to try and you got to try it. And you were like, do you have to deal with that a lot? yeah I'll growing up more but like especially my relationship too like I used to never eat sushi then my dankass wife was like come on you got it she's like we're gonna go to sugarfish it's the best sushi you'll love it and I loved it and it did open my mind and I was like damn you're right it's incredible sushi that being said I ain't going to other sushi spots that's the one place you trust my spot okay but and so I do limit myself and I guess I put myself in sort of a cage if you will but you're not you don't feel like you're missing it you love what you love your sandwiches

If I was, if I was, if I was, if I so, might be so boldest to call myself a lion, I would be a lion in a zoo. That's who I am. And I'd be like, yeah, this is my territory. But you be stoked. I'd be stoked. You'd choose the zoo. I would choose, I like this territory. I get my meals.

That's kind of an interesting animated thing. And I love attention from others so much. People would look at me and I'd be like, pretty good about tourists today. All right. I'll do one. Just do one trick. Just one. Or like, wake up and pop a boner and then be like, whoa, huge cock.

Like there's a. a beach ball in there you just hit it with your paw crowd just goes banana it goes 80 yards and you know you've got that in your pocket whenever you want it you can just set the crown on fire and i have my pride of chicks there too like they're still gonna give me my chicks you got and you strut away with your balls yeah yeah every time you see a line you're like holy shit there's nuts on that thing yeah you think everything is neutered yeah you're always shown the balls from the back always the the guerrillas are always the one where they give you the dynamic with the chicks where when you go to the zoo they're like this is philip he's the king

gorilla then there's like margie and tara and jenny and like he gets them all and then oh over here's bobo and he gets none and you're like yo you just wrote that out you just didn't assassinated bobo like that and bobo's still pretty jacked like they're all pretty jacked but the silver bag bad luck what is it about the is the silverback always jacked or does he get more jacked when it becomes the leader i think it's i mean look did teddy atlas says when he become champion and become 30% better as a fighter I think there's a mutually reinforcing kind of system there. Because doesn't the silver come in once they're the alpha? Oh, maybe.

That would be interesting. I think so. Yeah. So I think genetically, like success does have an impact on someone. Oh, it changes you for sure, dude. I mean, like, look at that. Don't want me to take my shirt off. This guy just said no, L-O-L.

He's saying that they all have silver backs. Whoa. Is it them just getting older? I think it's, yeah, it's probably just a sick way to think about it. Yeah. It's like the dorsal fin falls down if they're sad kind of thing. It's nice when we feel like the psychology. Yeah, we project is impacting them.

Yeah. They just fell for that, dude. They, uh, dude, silver. You're not a zoologist, dude. You're not a zoologist, dude. Silverbacks would be good hockey players. Oh, yeah, big butts. Yeah.

Can you see, imagine silverback hockey league? Or a nose guard. I watch that. Silverback is a noseguard in football. I'd want some humans in there, too. though. Oh, dude, the humans would get crushed. Just to get lit up. Yeah, they're like the, whoever the globechotters play.

Could you imagine you square up against a silverback gorilla? Yeah, take the gloves off. You get so much respect, though. The crowd would be going banana's like, oh, he went to right off the right off the puck drop. He just went at it. All right, Chad, what's the latest thing you've ever seen a person do? Okay, I got one.

King Charles cheating on Diana. Oh, nice. You watch that in the crown, you're like, what are you doing? dude and the audio he when he's with camille on the phone and he goes she's like talking about being on her period and he goes i miss you so much i wish i was your tampon oh so yeah dude he i don't like that i mean yeah he's a nasty he's a nasty freak yeah but diana come on is what you think was most punk loserish about it the fact that he just couldn't handle that she

was like the star and so he kind of cheated on her out of spite or you just think he blew it with just a 10 yeah honestly i wasn't even thinking about i was just like he he just like how could you not love her right yeah and you broke your covenant on against a cool lady yeah because when you cheat it's not like it's not like it was like it's not like it was mary todd or is that you know if you watch lincoln you're like bro yeah lincoln deserved a blow job yes yeah he was going but I mean it's like she's beautiful she's got a heart of gold she's charming and he's like I can't do it I can't do it I need to not inside Camilla and you're like yeah dude it it does feel like he he was spiteful towards her because every like so because like what you say it's like why couldn't

just love her it's like the fact that everyone loved her right and he felt as a result like he was getting less love bumped him yeah but then I think he was into Camila from the jump yeah it's like his first love and it was forbidden. Yeah, all the rules because she had already been married and stuff. They're like, you can't be with there. I understand the psychological trick there where it's like you want what you can't have,

but... Age of Innocence type shit. But if you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with. Yeah, yeah. Let's go. Is that Crossby Stills, Nash and Young? Who is that?

Is that it? I don't know. If you can't be with the one you love the one you're with. Oh, yeah. I think that was MLK. Good harmony. Hey, J.T. Have you ever caught yourself in the mirror and thought,

Whoa. When did that wrinkle show up? Dude, totally. Or like when you suddenly realize you look more like your dad every day and like not the cool parts. Look, dude, your face is literally the first thing people see. And unfortunately, it's the first thing to betray your age once you're past 30. And that's why we love the bros of Brodage. Brodagee have created the best all-in-one anti-aging moisturizer for dudes. Right. It also has sunscreen built in, but not too much. Yeah, like, because anything above 15 is like slathering on molasses.

And it has retinol. JT, what's retinol again? Retinol is the only ingredient scientifically in FDA approved to reduce fine lines. That's awesome. Right, like this cute dog on the packaging, Brogeet's got all. It's got retinol to erase those fine lines, SBF 15 to keep your skin safe from sun damage, plus vitamins and minerals to keep your face feeling fresh all day. It's a true all in one.

And my favorite thing about Brodege is that it's fragrance-free and non-greasy. It goes on super smooth and absorbs instantly. It doesn't leave any stinky white coat. You won't even notice you're wearing it, but the babes flocking. towards your radiant visage will but you might be wondering wow this sounds amazing but it's probably feeling really complicated probably is really complicated well that's where you're wrong brodej is the anti-routine skin care solution for bros it couldn't be any easier no training manual or multi-step regimen necessary just slap some on and go wait dude do i have to wash my face before

using brodage it's not it's not it's not it's not required but i recommend it and here's something special just for our going deep listeners use code deep at checkout and you'll try to get and you'll get to try a Brodege for only about 10 bucks. 10 bucks to look younger, fresher, and basically just better. It's a no-brainer, dude. Guys, check out Brodeges, support the show, support your face, support your skin. Brodagee is awesome. I got into the Loche game because of Brodice, and I love it.

So check it out. Strider, where are you at today on Steve Carell, Adam Driver, and the Sopranos? This is huge. Do you have beef with Steve Carell? I did. I used to think I could sense anger in his performance. So I'll tell you this. I've done

180s on Steve Carell and Driver I disliked a driver because I had my own insane thought where I was like these are roles I could do

that I'm like this guy's such a good actor he's so fucking amazing driver's incredible dude so full 180 on him he's a beast same with Corell I used to get annoyed

when he'd do the movies like man war or like you know and even like I don't know I guess I didn't take the performances because it was so subtle, like in 40-year-old version. I'd be like, it's not even that great, but it's amazing. He, like, wrote that.

It was a sketch, then became a movie, then he performed it. So he's amazing. I think I just had to get out of my own way on those guys. And then Sopranos, I'm still saving it from when I'm older, dude. Actually, I'm going to start it when we go to Vegas on our fantasy draft. I'll probably just, I'll probably just, you guys might go to the club or something. I might just stay home. Well, don't tease that because the boys will get excited and we'll all want to watch it with you.

maybe at night if we all come back i'll fucking watch that'd be huge yeah let's watch it late at night let's go oh that's a big but what's a big gift to the bros i think we'll just be psyched to like watch some with you yeah you can walk it'll be like excited like we'll be watching you watch and that'll be exciting for us i've seen the first episode 14 guys watching you i think i've seen the i've seen the pilot with the ducks in the pool um it gets better too but but um but i would say it's just daunting still though it's so daunting to start a new show but there's so many times right now where I'm like I'm rewatching the equalizer but I'd like that because it's just two hours yeah the movie yeah I like to rewatch a movie more than a whole show I'm listening

the rewatchables on that Simmons loves it says it's his dad's favorite movie his dad's on the pot dude it's a great dad movie it's a father it's a father protecting something innocent dude hondo p yeah uh Chad you once told me your greatest fear with having kids was what if they're uncool are you still worried about that No. No, I think, I think honestly, like, if your kid's kind of a nerd, it's so endearing and sweet. I think maybe what I meant, you know, this was years ago, by the way. Yeah, I think, I think what I, you know, maybe I did still have this fear, that they'd be, um, assholes. Oh, that's different, right?

Yeah, I think that's, that's what I meant. Yeah, if you have like a shit kid who's mean. to you. To you? Yeah, yeah. That's interesting. You're like, fuck, man.

You suck. It's kind of tough. Like, if your kid starts bullying you or talking shit or whatever, and there's going to be a time when they can beat your ass eventually. Yeah. Well, they're going to do all that stuff.

I mean, they're going to test boundaries. Yeah. It's tough. Did getting with Kennedy also alleviates some of that stuff where you're like, oh, I feel like, it'll be a good combo. The kid will come out good.

Yeah. And then just seeing my nieces and nephews. I think it's more of a fear of like having, This is kind of more serious territory, but like kind of fear of having like a problem child where you're like, this is a huge burden and this kid will not, you know, it's where it's, it's an issue. You got, and it's like, fuck.

Yeah. The chat is saying nothing scares me more than not liking my kid. I never heard anyone say that until you. That's why it's stuck in my, it was sticky in my brain. But it's also interesting because all your siblings are good citizens too. You don't really have a problem child in the family. No, yeah, I think I just, you know, I think it's like I like I like, I like, you know, the, the fear is like kind of like throwing a wrench in there, uh, with like a kid who, yeah, throwing

off the vibe. Yeah, throwing a kid who throws off the vibe where you're like, yeah, you're like, dude, you're like, can you imagine, you're like, can you imagine just coming and be like, dude, you just, you're like, dude, just shut up. Yeah, yeah. they kind of nail it like Dr. Evil and Scott and stuff like the dynamics there like it's so good went to the arcade if we got in these funny things is that what you want to do with your free time it's so funny dude also like just tough of how it will wait like if I think about having a kid I'll be like it's kind of like Will Ferrell

sketch was at the grill which he does so well he's like get off the shit so I hit nine today it's just like you have to balance and navigate so many things of like yeah man I'm just trying to have a nice time right now like be myself and like live life yeah but then also like the I have to exhibit the worst part of my personality to like enact a lesson here and they're just not listening. But I see, I don't, shut the fuck up. I don't think that's the worst part of your personality.

I don't, I don't, I have to do that stuff. I don't feel like, I'm like, no, that's just what you got to do. Like, I either have to ignore this kid right now because he's tantruming and they need to process and just figure that out and I don't want to. But I kind of like jump in between like, hey, what's going on? Like, hey, cut that out. Yeah.

It's kind of nice. You do it well, dude. And also like, yeah, it's, I think a lot of it too, is in your ear like just like you have so much fun with your kids like if you if you're just having you come in you're just dancing with them and you're just having a good time it's like you know that I think that it's tough to to create a shmull that way and um oh I had something I was going to say but I forgot damn it you can come back to it but uh yeah just uh yeah kid who throws out the vibe it's pretty funny yeah yeah

Oh Tony Sopranos kid You watch the Sopranos And you're like And Sopranos like This is my male air I was watching that episode last night Dude the best cut in that episode is

Is he goes He's apologizing to AJ for that He goes AJ I'm apologizing because And the reason I'm so hard on him Is because I see so much of me and you And then they cut to AJ in a single And he looks so pathetic

They just laugh right away Because you're like He's lying He doesn't mean that at all Yeah, dude, yeah. If you have AJ Soprano, I mean, it's just brutal. Dude, the worst watching The Sopranos with my dad and when AJ would be being a shitbag, my dad would sometimes be like, he'd look at me.

And I'd be like, dude, I'm not fucking AJ. Lay off. Yeah, there was one where Tony's like, everything you do, your name is my name, you embarrass me. And like stuff like that. My dad was like, I'd been in trouble at school or something stupid. And my dad was like, J.T., your name is my name. You embarrass me. I was like, shut.

Yeah, right to me, dude. I was like, get out of here, you. Yeah, think about, like, does AJ have any good qualities? No. He's dumb. He's mean. He's selfish. He's selfish.

He's a bummer. Like, there's literally... He's not strong. He's not like a good ass. Yeah. There's nothing. It's like, it's hard to name one positive quality that he has. He's all a Tony's bad trade.

none of the good ones, basically. But I think, you know, Tony's not the greatest fathers. This is the Sopranos strider. This is the Sopranos? Yeah, this is what we're talking about. This AJ. Yeah, I think, I think, maybe I said that too. I was watching Sopranos. I was like, dude, I don't know.

I want to have an AJ. It will, it will freak you out. That he is the worst case scenario. He looks cool now in podcast. He's not cool, dude. He's not the least bit cool. The real guy? No, the AJ.

Oh, the AJ. All right, should we get to the last one? Yeah. She's out here we go. Then we got some calls lined up. This has been interesting. I like this. Okay, here we go.

This is for J.T. Yo. What painting would you like to walk into and experience? Oh, dude, great question. I mean, I would love to be inside of like a Renee McGreet. Oh, yeah. You love that. The gentle absurdity of it where it's like real life,

but everything's just a little playfully off. And there's even a little bit of like portentousness in the, in the offness but it but it's more good than bad i think he his his like kind of like this is not a pipe one of those guys if i could hop into that i think it'd be a good vibe i you know it's it's the most popular one it's the most cinematically in it's inspired the most cinema edward hopper nighthawks i'd like to know that i was gonna say that i was like you're just eating alone i'd love to go to a diner at night by myself i'd kind of feel like i'm doing it when i do it i'd love to go in there and just journal you know who else does that denzel the equalizer hey dude it's beautiful um

Um, Lucian Freud, the intensity of it, the grotesqueness of the nudity. I'd like to have sex in one of his paintings. Fuck. Yeah. And then, um, uh, lastly, you know, everyone's going to say, but I'm going to go with one that people don't normally pick. For me, he is the greatest artist of all time. I'm not an expert in art by any stretch, but Picasso, the greatest.

I won't go cubist, although I think that's cool. It'd be nice to see time from all sorts of different angles and break it up. that'd be pretty i'd go into woman ironing i'd go into his blue period i like the humanism of it i like the melancholy of it so i'm gonna go with that one i love that i was gonna wonder this oh wow yeah i'd like to just bring her a cup of tea that's very giving of you nice talk to her i mean dude so look at the angularity of the shoulder there you literally capture the work you know what i mean like just the yeah you feel the wear and tear of her life in that angle on that shoulder I'd want to come in and just give her a smoothie.

Oh, dude, you could bring her an outside bowl. Just sit down and just hear about her day. Yeah. Bring her a bonsai bowl, dude, give her diarrhea. Oh, then yeah, there's some, what about you? You guys should all answer that, too, because it's such a good question. It's a really fun one. Honestly, the Dennis, the, I was going to say Dennis Hopper.

The Edward Hopper was the one I thought. Like, I do like, I like going to a diner with friends. Like, we used to love going to, what's the diner down on Beverly? Swingers. It looks like that. I used to feel it when I was in there when I was sitting at the counter. That's nice. And just posting up and like having a club sandwich late with your bro would be so sick.

I mean, his stuff is insane. So good. You guys recreated that one with Dan Lucchese. Oh, yeah. What was that guy's? Hockney? David Hockney. That's a great one to be.

Yeah. You know, I mean, look, would you want to be in Monet's Garden and just, you know, the impressionist and just feeling that he painted it over and over again. over and over again, capturing the mood, the different moods that he was in, maybe you could be totally live in joy in one moment or totally live in sadness and truly feel that that, um, the full extent of those emotions in that beautiful space. Um, but I mean, also, you know what I'm saying? You could put yourself in a Japanese woodblock print back in the Edo period of Japan and, or a nice fresco from the rum period and just get, you know, doggy or 60,

ancient style could be pretty chill Is that from... Did you learn that all from the high school class with Doc Hansen or is that more from college? The Black Prince more from college I took a thing on Japanese art. Technically if you walk through a Shinto shrine you are experiencing art.

It's not a painting, but it is experiencing the art. But, uh, or a building you're doing that. I was just about to say, yeah, maybe like falling water or something like that. But I like doing a painting more than doing like something you can actually physically live in. Totally. Walking, it'd be a cool movie.

Like you could see like, be an interesting movie. Better thought experiment when there's a greater detachment between me and the choice. And that's the thing. I mean, you know, really, if you were going to go to Dolly

and the absurdism of that, I mean, with the dripping of persistence of time, you know, really might be a horror scape for you and living in the area and you would lose control immediately to experience it

would you have to be out of control? We imagine ourselves in control in the experience. I don't know. Are we getting to full experience? And the choice in choosing to directly choose something abstracted or surreal

is to somewhat lose what makes that special. Yes. Then it would normalize what is unique about the experience of witnessing it. I would posit, you might just have to say, pick your frame. And then in order to truly choose, would the painting have to be chosen for you? Chosen for you, rather than dictated for sure. Which to me is a futurist sort of notion in Poccioli.

Absolutely. You may imagine being put inside of a harmonious Bosch. I mean, that would be quite an inexperienced. I don't know. I wouldn't really like that. Well, so moving on. There's a question now. Me? Do you have one more? Sexually, sexually. From my own perversion or Bernelli, for my money would be probably the best, but I would actually

be very repressed, but at the same time consumed with his own repression. Absolutely. And captures the realism. I mean, really, am I stepping that far outside of my own reality by choosing Bernelli? No, no. You're revealing quite a lot here, which I'm sure is interesting to the listener. but but let's let's remain on the train as it were yeah um did you have one more question oh yes absolutely sorry chab yes yes okay what would you do if everyone in your family forgot your birthday what would i do if everyone in my family forgot my birthday that's good cute i would send them a skating i'd send them a skating

a scathing letter I wouldn't even text I would send them a scathing letter saying you forgot something important me the day of my birth and so I want you all to know that on your birthdays I'm going to send you a black rose

to celebrate you as a horrible family member and I'm going to eat a steak to myself on that day to enjoy myself and to show you that you are a piece of shit vindictive smart

Capotee-esque. Smart. Chad, you're up. J.T. What's a compliment you still think about? Dude, I ran into a guy who was a... This was a really nice one. On Sunday, I went to the park with Dustin.

And I hung out with my kids and his kid. His daughter's great. Good seeing Dustin. What a smart, fun guy to hang out with. And then we met. working together on Nathan for you as interns. Dude, one of the producers from Nathan for you shows up. Really talented guy that we worked with a couple times on other stuff.

And it was great. And his wife was also a writer on it. So it was like a big power. I was like, wow, all these people we all worked together. And when I was leaving, he said, and he was busy, he's got two kids. But when I was leaving, he's like, hey, dude, you're the right kind of guy to be a twin dad. Oh, that's great. It meant a lot to me.

Yeah. And I don't even know why. It's one of those things you can't fully explain. But I was like, oh, that hit in a really nice way. Yeah, that's awesome. I love that. I love that. Yeah, I do feel like you can handle any of life's challenge.

If anything comes at you, I'm like, oh, you got this. Oh, that's nice. Thank you. I do feel that comes natural. Tell that to me. I'm sure it's work. I'm sure it's. No, no, I just need out of boys.

Just say, yeah. Adaboys. Just say stuff like that. It's true. Strider. Yes, sir. If you had to be haunted by a ghost from your past, who would it be, and why would it annoy you?

Holy shun. Nikes. That's a good one. Holy shanikis. So technically a ghost from my past can just be anything, right? Like it can be an idea or is this something that's someone that has died that I know? It's up to you. Or a person who's no longer in contact with.

Oh, that's true. Okay. So if I had to be haunted by a ghost from my past. Damn, dude. I don't know. You're volleyball coach. No, my coach was chill as hell. He was, like, obsessed with his high school coach.

I was best friends. If he tried to, like, if he tried to get at him by picking on his high school coach, even though he didn't know him, he started like, you can't even pick on him. He's too cool. Like, I don't even, I don't even receive that criticism because it's so fake. Like, he's just the man. It was so untrue. He was just chill.

You know, he's talking about his modeling career. You're like, dude, he was an underwear model. Six-five left-de-jacked. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it did have Credence. That is pretty cool. this is a tough I'm I feel dude I feel stumped cotton I feel shocked

I'm gonna say I'm trying to think like teachers that I've had that have sucked or moments in my past it would have to be uh Luthely oh it's a great call dude dude there was this guy jacked Evan Luthley

imagine any line imagine a middle linebacker who played happened to play basketball like played the wrong sport he was like 5-9 like 2-10 he would have been a he should have been a crossfit champion yeah totally like he was just he was probably meal prepping in high school you know what I mean like I like he cooked steak for his dad that's who this guy was and I was pretty decent at my freshman basketball team we always

scrimmage against the um sophomore team and luthy would come up and go I got him and I go fuck he would just foul the shit out of me rebound elbow me dude and just and it was like a he was like a Boy Scout too So he'd be like All good about it You know Like wasn't even like Being tough

Just playing me too hard And I'd be like Dude six in the morning Relax I can't do this So I was like Vince Vaughn Against Rudy a little bit You know like

Checking in on me Calling me Hey would you do today What's your plan for the day Dating me I would be so fresh I'd be like I'd have to lie to him I'd be like

I'm lying I did this You'd want to do stuff less. If he was like, hey, I'm going to be on your hip the whole time. Yeah, if it was like stand up, like, hey, how many open mics did you do? Did you try that new bit?

How did it work? Did you rework it? I mean, shut the fuck up, dude. Leave me alone. Yeah. So, yeah, Luth. He's a hard ass. He's like a hard ass as a team.

What's he up to? I would imagine now he's running multiple Dodge dealerships. He was like, dude, we were like 16 and our buddy had a party and Luthley came. And he was like, he announced the party. He announced the party.

He's the bodyguard for the party. Like, he's going to make sure people we don't want don't come. And loosely goes, yeah, just nod his head and then pulled out a cigar. He started smoking. Yeah, one of those guys, like, I happen to have a cigar tonight. He was like, 17. It is so funny when you're, like, young, some of the people who like, when you see high school are smoking cigars, it looks so ridiculous.

Trying to be adult, yeah. Yeah, dude. Do you know how to smoke a cigar? I'd be like, no. Yeah, no, dude. Dude, we're going to go golf today. Got a few stogies. We're going to have a bad time.

We all suck. What are you talking about? I have a hot take. I think no one actually enjoys cigars. Whoa. I think that's true. So you think they're stinky, not stylish. It's like the most fun thing to do when you've eliminated all other options.

It's like, it's the sign you have nothing else. It's the most fun thing to think about doing until you start actually doing it. And you're like, this is disgusting. Yeah. Super phallic, too. Wait, who's up? I'm going to have to whiz real quick while you guys. I think one of you guys is up because those are mine two questions.

I think I'm out of cues. all right let's i'll do the last one uh chad real quick if there is a god which i you know and you're obviously comfortable with death and the cycle so rather when you meet god what will be the first thing you say to them what will be the first thing i say to god oh man first thing i say to god oh man first thing i say to god Like, do you think you'll be kind of nervous? Like, will you want to be?

You're a pretty respectful guy. Do you think you'll come in? Let's say you weren't being respectful. Let's say you were hammered. Hammered. So right when you get to heaven, they just give you like six beer bongs. They let you rip an audios motherfucker. And then they're like, now you're going to meet God.

They want you nice and loose and toasted. I think, I mean, honestly, I think I would just be stoked. I'd be like, dude, what is up, man? So just create a mutation. Oh, yeah. So I'd be like, dude, it's God. What is going on, dude? What do we do?

Do we dance? Do we like, you know, do we have like a heavenly pokey bowl? Like, what, what's... So it's all good vibes, no concerns, no resentment. Just, dude, it's so good to see you. Dude, yeah. What up, dude. Thank you for creating.

That is awesome. All right, Strider. What do you think is your greatest strength as a human? Dude. That's a great question. I would say... I can sense if I'm getting angry and kind of channel or like, know that. I think like maybe like, maybe I like to think I have a self-awareness.

So you think you're very self-attuned? Yeah. I like to think I am. And your ability to self-regulate? You do have great self-regulation. Yeah, I think that. I think, which I think developed from having a tough dad growing up being, and this is having done therapy with my wife.

in couples therapy learning this together that my exactly dude let's have let's have fun with it dude oh probably probably my little penis dude no i meant i meant therapy is oh yeah yeah i just did it today it's tough don't you get but sometimes when you have a good session there's a nice high coming out of it yeah but it you know it's good that i don't enjoy i used to enjoy couples therapy like even when me and chad did it once or twice because we were like just working so much we had to like iron out some kinks but like yeah i used to enjoy the fighting of it i think i've actually matured now where i'm like no i'm not looking forward to this this This is hard emotional work.

And I'd rather, I'd rather be doing something else. Oh, for sure. Oh, I do. I hate arguing. But it's necessary. But like, but it's definitely like, I'll be in therapy. I'm like, this is hard. This is tough.

And I think I'm ready to just not think about it. But we got to do it. It's draining too. The mental work. It's draining. This phase. My furniture phase. But dude, I would say, um.

But you learned in therapy. Yeah. Uh, others moods. I always, and I think this is why I have humor. Because humor is a way. of control where it's like if i'm making people laugh i know where everyone's at well so it's comforting to me so your greatest strength is you're able to monitor yourself but then the the overdoing it of it is when you're monitoring other people too much yeah yeah and having to feel that control because it still is

about control and safety control the outcome yeah control the outcome and i think it can serve me negatively to say but i do think that i have my greatest joy from uh you know having a sense of humor and laughing and then also like I find that if oh something upsets me or makes me angry I can notice that and I won't do the knee-jerk reaction as much I think that is what I would say like and I generally do think if I want to tell someone something or this I'll wait and a lot of times I'll wait and then not even have the talk and be like whatever the moment's past which isn't great but at least I don't like go off the handle and be like fuck you like you blah blah blah like should have done this or that right say some stuff or low

you know shots across the bow um so you keep you cool kind of well yeah to two you know and that's not always good it's a good thing yeah it's a good thing you facilitate a good vibe in yourself and in others yeah i try to do that actively that's what's up yeah all right dude good keys everybody should we do one call just to cap it yeah yeah so we have some good jake i have some options actually the question that i had to edit while you guys send that out hypothetical train of strangers it's going to go over a bridge you guys can save the strangers but in doing so you have to fucking die or wait wait sorry you just start hopped into this I'm kind of what are you talking about dude this is just a hypothetical that I had to cut oh oh okay dude dude hit me with

it fucking dude train of strangers fucking fool of strangers like a thousand person train headed for a bridge dude you see it's broken you are the bridge operator you can save these people but to do it you're gonna fugging die do you do it or do you get blow jobs from all the strangers on the train dude and you may or may not die how many chicks are on that train thing is do i mean normal societal numbers probably 50% probably 500 chicks then so you say i to get blown by 50% dudes. Yeah, dude. But you might live.

But I live. But I have to live with the knowledge that I got blown by 500 dudes. Exactly, dude. You get to live with that knowledge. Oh, yeah, way to reframe that. I guess I should pause this with, do you like blowjobs first? Obviously. Okay, cool.

So then this hypothetical works continue. Just had to check. Yeah, dude, I freaking love blow jobs. Who doesn't? All right, dude, here's the thing. This might be too tough of a one. Here's one. Yo, let me ask you, Kew.

What up? I die. Dude, fuck. I get blown and die. All right, dude, here it is. Here it is, dude. Anada Armas, dude? No, no, no, no, no, never mind, never mind.

Dude, Sidney, or Pamela Anderson, both in their prime. Oh. You got to pick one, dude. You get to boink one. You can only pick one. on, dude. But here's the catch. Yeah. The other one,

dies. Oh, dude. I'm going Pam Anderson all day, dude. Dude, Pam Anderson in her prime, just freaking clapping those cheeks and later Sidney Sweens. It was nice knowing you. Such a fucking good call. Dude, what would you guys pick, dude?

Fuck, dude. Getting blown? Yeah. Getting blown. That's a good call, dude. Fuck. Oh, yeah, I got a question for you, dude, would you rather, would you rather your load have the ability, like, Spider-Man, like, you can spin webs and just fly throughout New York City because you're just busting loads. Basically, you're like Spider-Man with your cock. Whatever this next part is, better be tough because that's sick. I can't make base time on the other day.

Oh, you can't? All right. So, so, imagine. Spider-Man, you know, how he's, but you're just cocking it. Question, does it feel like nutting every time I shoot towards like the Empire State building? Answer, yes. Okay, that's sick.

Or would you end world hunger? Fuck. Can you do WhatsApp, Jake, or not? Do I end world hunger by dropping the hugest loads? And that's what everyone feasts on. If you want, dude. Hold on. Jake, I think this one will work.

He's not a different number. I can only do American numbers from here, but you could call them on... You could call them on your phone and just put the... Make sure the speaker's close to the mic. I think this will work if you do this number. I'm feeling pretty benevolent then. I think he's listening. And I think I'd probably...

I'd probably go with you, Adi. Dude, can you imagine just... Shh. Shish. Oh, dude. The Oct. Dr. Ock tries to hit you, just puch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch.

Dude, we know when Toby McGuire stopping the train, he was, shh-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h. Hello? Hey, what's up, dude? I thought we could make that work. How you living?

Dude, I'm doing good. How are you fellows down? Living large, dude. Chelling, dude. All right, so you made me somewhat aware of the situation. Could you explain it to the rest of the dudes and the listeners at home? Okay, yeah

So basically what's going on is that I've been hanging out with this new lady And she's pretty great I think like there's a potential that I would Seek a long relationship with her And it is fun Just the only thing That it's kind of surprising for me to

Like Had this be an obstacle But she's kind of getting very experimental In the bedroom dude And usually I'm up for switching up I don't want it to be vanilla And whatever you know she's into I'm happy to do

but it's mainly our last our last time was very aggressive and essentially what happened I won't get too graphic but she was we were you know going at it and she asked me to hit her and I was like what

I don't really what do you mean and she to demonstrate from her back hit me in the face and at then you know she wears like a couple of rings like it hurt And I was very taken aback. Did she sock you closed fist?

No, it was like an open hand, but her, her, like, the underside of her knuckle of her middle finger, like hit, like, my orbital body on, like, side of my face. And I was like, whoa, dude. And so that was very startling. And after I was like, hey, you know, I'll do whatever. But did you get rocked? Say again. Like, were you rocked? Dude, kind of.

Like, she hit me, dude. And she's not, like, small. you know like she she there was some force there did first cue did you nut upon contact did i nut upon contact i mean it fired me up a little bit i won't even lie but for the pain oh that's nice not what i was expecting okay so you but you genuinely you did like it a little bit when she up the intensity yeah but i don't know i don't know if i want to encourage that behavior dude and then she just starts pummeling me while we're going at it i don't know if i can handle it it does seem like you know maybe she's got a lot of horsepower in her car but she hasn't

learned how to master driving it yet and so you feel a little unsafe in the passenger seat i think the big thing there is is um you know creating some safety on the track and and that comes down to communication like tell her hey man you know that's what i wanted to ask you felt because you know i don't the i want to find a non-confrontational way to uh go about it because afterwards I was like hey you know I'm down to whatever but you know just don't hit me and she wasn't that receptive which was very odd for he's pretty smart very normal which is odd so that's why it is otherwise it wouldn't be an issue well how can you but now I'm like this is a little weird can you go into more detail there what was the

conversation like can you reenact the conversation for us I think literally like post finish I was like oh yeah like just in future can you not hit me because we were like laughing about like the little bruise I had on my face and she was like oh yeah like sorry i guess like i don't know she she said something that actually i it didn't seem genuine you know women do get away with bullying sometimes with men because if you're a man and you're like hey you bullied me they'll kind of laugh at you sometimes because you kind of sound like i quite felt emasculated but it definitely like you felt on her i'm i'm used to like getting hit but i don't want it to be with my lady or i'm getting beat up yeah you're a wrestler

right? You're a tough guy. Yeah, yeah, I wrestle and play the grass. I have a question. Does she still want you to hit her? I mean, after she hit me, she instructs me to hear her, and I hit her back, but I still like nowhere near as hard as she hit me. Just gave her a little slap on the face, but not the ear. Yeah, you know, but I think she was not enthused.

She was like, you need to put some more heat into it. Like, she was like, you're being a pus. I'm sure that's what she thought. What's her, did, um, it's a tough one, right? Because you want someone who's kinky and some guys are into that. Some guys want to do the rough play and it could be a, that could be finding a gold mine for some guys. Do you want to do it? I think so, but like, I think literally that day I'd gotten back from practice and I just like, I don't need all aspects of my life.

Like I can use a bit more passionate and affection than just fucking, you know, but you got to mix it up. I'm up for everything. Just in that particular moment, it struck me the wrong way. It sounds like, you know, she's got to be a better guide here. Like you got to say, hey, honey, I want to give you what you want, but I got to feel safe in this process, especially if we're going to be coloring outside the lines with some of this riskier, high level of difficulty behavior. I need you to, it might not sound fun and it might not get the pop you want right away,

but I think we need to build here and you need to. kind of walk me through and we need to learn and yeah I mean if you're going to be trying physical stuff you got to have real good control and boundaries around that because it's uh yeah it can it can get away from you brother you're playing you know it's you're playing with fire yeah yeah I totally agree you know and also like you keep saying oh I'm down for whatever I'm like I don't know dude like you you you're making love you'd want to be like very down like like if someone told me hey every time you have to bust you got to get punched in the face too that doesn't sound that fun to me

some people might like yeah but we're exactly we're different and I think you gotta frame it to her right there I was too judgmental but like be like hey I'm not yucking anyone's yums maybe you use a more extreme example some people like you dressed up in furry outfits that's their thing

sounds like your thing is you like this intense contact while boning let's create some boundaries around it you know it's not the most fun or just at least have a lead up you know I it's like if I knew what was come and I'd be prepared. It was just the abruptness that was, uh, right. I, I think,

I think you need explicit instruction from her what exactly she wants. Because the whole hitting thing, to me, getting hit kind of sounds cool, but I'm just that kind of guy. Love that. But the whole hitting thing, I, I, I, I, me personally, I couldn't do it. Um, and to me, it seems like, it seems like you need very explicit instructions. And also, Just for safety, some people in the chat are saying you need, like, to have it in writing. Yeah, get a text right of her saying this is what I'm into. Yeah, smart. Good call.

Cream jeans is looking out for me, dude. And with the physical stuff, it's not just that you could physically hurt each other. It says you could emotionally wound each other. Like, if you feel like your partner is actually trying to hurt you and not trying to make you feel good via this more physical stuff, that's very wound. and it can really alienate you from them and yourself. Because it's not just like a one-time thing and like, oh, a funny story to tell the guys. Like, if it's someone I want to be with for a while, you know, it is something I have to confront and not just like, oh, this is a funny one-time thing where she beat me up.

Yeah, it's telling a great guy. Yeah, you've got to have that communication because this is going to be something going forward if you're together, so you've got to be in the same page. And you want it to be about connection. Yeah. So you just need some better signposting from her and some better communicate. You sound really open. And then if, look, if it gets to a point, I don't want to get dark,

because it sounds like you guys can have a good time. But if it gets to a point where she's like really chasing the aggression and it feels like it's disproportionate to the other parts of it, I think it's fair, especially if you really like her to be like, what's going on here? And where do you think this comes from? Yeah, you have to explore all that. JT's so right, it should be about emotional connection.

So if that isn't, you know, the goal, then. Yeah, if it's alienating you from each other and yourself, then that's a you know you can touch it you're at an age where you're finding that out but you don't got to live there brother yeah and how does it feel to you does it make you feel good you know if it makes you feel bad you got yeah there's no point it's got to be some connection if it's what something if i'm dreading having making love with the later that's a terrible yeah here's a big cue what she like outside the bedroom has the connection how's the communication how's the how's the how's the how's the relation really great and and she's very

and tell him she's also premed like me so she and I share a lot of interest and like I enjoy talking about going on dates we have a great time when we went to the city I live in Connecticut so like we went to New York City had a great time and it was super fun this is kind of the only hiccup

you know which is why it elicited me being a little nervous dude I think smart women are kind of weird about sex because they almost approach it academically and they're like I want to explore this I want to explore that this is a modality I haven't tried yeah she's a doctor herself she bruises you up she can fix you up too

that's kind of nice dude bang for your buck yeah that's what I was thinking but I you know I didn't want to have to stitch myself up I'm optimistic about this they sound they sound like they could be good for you I think I think you'll figure it out I think I think you need strict guidelines how does it feel to you how does it feel to hers is is are you

leaving the experience where you're like that that brought us closer together um I'm a visual learner sorry sorry yeah visual show me a video be like hey where have you seen it in an adult video what level. Let's see what it looks like.

Oh, okay. This is too much. This is maybe too little. And if she puts on enough by Jennifer Lopez, starring Jennifer Lopez, that might be too much. You're like, maybe we need to check in here. All right, fellas, I have to get out of here, man. But I do want to say, I mean, thank you guys so much. I'm probably listening to every podcast over the last three years. You guys are the best.

Dude, you're the man. You're the man, bro. Good luck. What if he signed up? Love you, dude. What if he signed up? He's like, I've got to go beat off. Yeah.

All this talk. This time, dude. Can we call one more guy real quick? What up, guys? What up, dude. What up? Who this? Who are you?

Hey, can hear me? Yeah, yeah, we can hear you. Who are you, man? Who are you? My name is Teddy. What up, Teddy? And I'm on the San Clemente Beach's Parks and Recreation Commission, the commission. Oh, dude.

What up? What up? yeah so do we you and me were talking a little bit can you explain the situation and what your kind of prognosis is on it so we we have an issue in san clemenian and it's it's not just us i think it's happening all around the country and it's that we're allowing national political issues to affect our local decision making and i think it used to be that local issues are really what most people cared about and it's still the case that the the most direct impact on people's daily lives come from local government.

But it seems like most people are more preoccupied with the national conversation. So in San Clemente, this recently played out with our beach tax that we were trying to get past. It was a half cent. So that means for every dollar you spend, half a penny would go to the beach. and we got 64% of the vote. We needed 66 and a third for it to pass. But so many people were suspicious of the government. They didn't believe that the dollars would go to the beach.

And unfortunately, it didn't pass. And we're losing our beaches. Well, yeah, can you explain why you wanted the beach tax and what the issue is we're facing? Sure. So, as you know, San Clement, has a beach erosion crisis, same issues going, is something that's facing a lot of other beach communities, but by raising this tax, San Clementi would have the opportunity to put its

own destiny in its own hands. So we wouldn't be as reliant on funding sources from the federal government, the state, and the county. Yeah, so basically erosion's happening. We're losing beaches. We lost Christianitos. We lost old mans. These were beaches that we grew up at. And the water's coming up past the sand and it's making it so you can't access the beach anymore. What were you guys going to do with the money you got? So this is why the tax was so great and I can't believe I'm saying a tax is great. But this money would have to be used for sand replenishment. It couldn't go anywhere else.

I think there was something in there about lifeguard infrastructure, but bottom line is the no matter who's in charge of the San Clemente government, this money has to be used for sand. So for $7 million a year, which is what this tax would raise, we could replenish her own beaches. And it didn't pass because people heard taxes and they thought it meant BigGov. And San Clementi is a... They thought it meant BigGov. They thought that people were going to line their pockets with it or that it was a money grab.

And on top of that, we also... I mean, I want to say our city council is amazing. But we have a few councilmen that are... are big in the OCGOP, the Republican Party, and they have to be very careful how they supported this bill. So they were either silence or outright against it. It's the worst, dude. And then, so what are some alternative ways we can help the beaches right now?

I know one issue I read about in an article was that houses on the beach that are doing their own retainer walls are actually bad for the other houses, because it like displaces the water and puts more impact on the neighboring spots. Yeah, interestingly, the more rock and hard, it's called hard armoring you do to the, to the beach area, the faster the beach erosion happened. And that's exactly what the train company, OCTA, is doing as we speak. They're dumping more and more rock. We're seeing the loss of beach at Cotton's Point.

Wow. It's a huge great. Do you cotton's in North Beach? Those are huge. North Beach, fucking Itchy bear used to be down there? That's brutal, bro. can you did you may have already

can you explain again why the council voted against it is it just extra tax or what what so

it's not that they voted against it this was something that was on the ballot for the people to vote for but they didn't

all come together in support of it okay I think privately they're all in favor of it because you know they went homes

in San Clemente they have skin in the game here and if we lose our beaches everyone loses. But because they're aligned with the Orange County Republican Party, they have to be very careful how they go about publicly supporting taxes. And we need to get a message to the people that a beach is bipartisan. Unless it's bipartisan. And this is the big thing. San Clementia has

already proven itself to be able to successfully do these sand replenishment projects. We had one in North Beach about a year ago where the city managed it so well. It was a public and private partnership, San Clementi paying a private company to bring sand to the beach. They managed it so well. The project actually came in under budget and they were able to dump even more sand than they thought they would. Wow. So that just goes to show that if we do raise a beach tax, it's going to be managed efficiently. We have the expertise. We just need the residency. get behind it. People respond to symbols and maybe a symbol absolutely. Like a big statue of a great guy

right there in San Clementi reminding the people looking at the beach being like hey we got to protect this you know so I think it might be time for you guys to make another appearance of this I think it'd be huge yeah I think I think dude we get the P-dub statue statue um i'm trying to think here how do we dude okay here's here's the thing here's the thing here's how we do this and i don't mean to tell you how to do your job but here's how i think we should frame the tax it's the paul walker statute tax and we just you know we buffer and be

like and also there's like an asterisk and also we're going to be funding which i don't even think you need an asterisk there you can be like it's paul walker statue tax and we're going to be replenishing the beaches the save the the the beach is tax yeah i mean that's huge dude so you see so i think that you know it's paul walker statue catches your eye you're like yes i'm for it and replenishing the beach double for it it's a huge win it's a huge win dude it's such it's such a bummer you're so close to the threshold too for getting enough votes um is it something that can come back on the ballot soon, or what are the alternative routes now to helping?

The fight's not over yet. The good news is it's coming back, but this time, it's coming back in a different way. So for the specific tax, you need a two-thirds majority vote, but you can raise a general tax with a simple

majority vote, but here's the risk. That money doesn't have to go to the beach. Oh, no. There's a thing. Voters are I don't like that, dude. They can divert those funds. Can't have that. There's a bunch of local lobby groups working on crafting the language, but it's sounding

like that's the route that they're going to try next time. To a tax that isn't required to go to the beaches? Right. So just because our current council, they're all behind using this money for the beach, but there's no guarantee 10 years down the line that that money's going to go. something else could come up or some special image could get earmarked elsewhere

maybe they just have to put a time limit on it dude rewrite the get there work on the legislature however like you just said according to the timeline you can probably do the math it took us this long at North Beach using this company

if we extrapolate it here's our timeline bang if the money's not done by then or if the sand isn't laid by then we have to revote tax goes away bang totally

statue shoot um all right sweet man is there anything else is there a place we could people should look if they want to learn more about this stuff bring back our beaches

san clemeni that's that's the group where the whole town's getting behind them that's a great place come to our meetings beaches parks and recreation meetings the transit authority meetings and get involved in

your local communities too because at the end of the day the more people that are involved the more solutions minded people we have the better you know it's really easy to be a hater and to say a tax and a tax but at the end of the day we all have to be solutions oriented thank you teddy you're a good man thank you for calling into we appreciate that you care so much about the community and you're trying to preserve it for others and the rest of us thanks for having me on guys late teddy right I wanted to ask him, but I was like, does your girlfriend hit you? But it just didn't feel like the right time.

It doesn't sound like it. Although they both had similar vibes. Both good guys. Yeah. Great guys. Yeah. I wonder, I probably should ask him, but like how much would we have to provide for it to stay like a steady base, right?

Like if it's naturally dropping, do we have to keep like each year, do we double the load? Do we triple the load of sand? Like how much more do we have to keep putting on that? How's this thing going to scale up going forward? I bet you he would have had an answer for that. Yeah. Damn it. You should have that.

Maybe that's a good question for the count. Should we call him right back? No, I got to get. Okay, that's a good question. That's a good question for the council. What kind of load size are we talking about? Will the load get bigger? Yes.
