The following podcast is a dear media production.
Two Jews, both big and tall, no subject, too small for the good guys.
A mother's dream, premium podcast team, make it your weekly routine, it's a good guys.
And if you don't give us five stars, what are you nuts?
What are you nuts?
Yeah, we're the good guys, they're not the great guys.
We're just so good, good, good, good guys.
Miles and Mawrins, welcome back to the Good Guys podcast.
I'm sitting here with the great, the only been saffer.
And I'm sitting here with a great patchback.
Yep.
God.
There's just one.
There's only one.
Is there more than one?
Like, when you Google your name, does somebody else pop up?
For a while, it was me and this doctor.
Okay.
Now it's really just me, which, like, lets me know that, like, Google's, like, doing its thing.
Like, I'm, I'm still, my Wikipedia is still husband of Claudia Osprey, which, like,
If you're somebody at Wikipedia, like it would be really nice if we could talk about that.
100%.
That's got to get changed.
Yeah, I got nothing.
Husband.
Like, crazy.
I'm nothing more than a husband?
To you?
Do you Google?
I don't like, listen.
How much of our listenership is toasters?
Probably all.
No.
I just kidding.
I would say, I would say 50%.
Okay.
Overlap.
50% overlap.
15.
And I feel them falling off.
I don't think they're sticking with us.
No.
I think we have a very wonderful, very specific demo,
and they're called people who eat at four.
Okay?
They're the older, they're the seniors,
they're the mothers and the fathers.
Yes, they are.
They are.
It's a mix.
My great cousin, Peter,
a great Italian prosecutor from New Jersey.
He'd never listen to the pot.
He came over and we had a wonderful brunch
the other morning when him and his lovely wife were here visiting.
And he said, I've been listening to the pod.
It's funny.
I said, see?
If we can get a guy like Pete, a good Italian kid from Jersey, we're winning.
We're winning.
And you sprinkle in.
By the way, our first live caller needs to be our friend from Pakistan.
Okay, the Josh Peck OG from Pakistan.
Totally.
We need him.
But if we can mix in the 50, 60-year-old Italian man, nice, 45 to 50.
55-year-old Jewish woman from Long Island and the OG Stan from Pakistan.
My God.
The OG Stan from Pakistan.
The original OG Stan.
I love that.
I just say Pakistan.
Pack-O-G-Stam?
Pack-O-G stand.
God, do I love that.
How good is Pakistani food?
Amazing.
Amazing.
Amazing.
Fantastic.
Yeah, it's great.
How great is it?
Indian food. Beyond. You know what? I actually... Anything with spices. Like, we need more spices.
If you're not exploring spices, okay? My favorite new spice, not that anybody asked me,
my favorite new spice is a nice North African spice. It's called Harisa. Okay? I'm putting
Harisa and freaking everything. A chef showed me you'd make like a nice, uh, you put Harisa on,
on the outside of Ahi Tuna Josh, before you grill it. It's phenomenal. So I took it up a notch and I said,
What if I put Harissa in my tuna salad?
My God, this is unbelievable.
A plus.
You need a experiment with spices.
You should name your next child that.
Harissa suffer.
Horissa.
Horissa.
I love it.
It's like Teresa, but spicy.
It's like Teresa.
It's like Clarissa.
Horace.
What do you think about when they do the,
and they do it a lot with smash burgers where they like basically dip the entire
burger in mustard and then fry it?
Have you seen this?
I have.
I saw recently,
I didn't know they did that
with Smash burgers.
I saw somebody recently
do it with a steak.
You're just marinating
the whole steak and mustard.
Josh,
I think it's a big waste of mustard.
I think so.
You're using too much mustard.
At least what I saw,
it was like a mustard bath.
Yeah.
You didn't need that.
Just like coat the outside.
You'd do one dip.
But yeah,
I saw him like put so much mustard.
I thought it was a waste.
Do you,
the profile,
the flavor profile?
Is it elevating?
I can't imagine it elevates it more than mustard powder, Josh.
Like, why wouldn't you use, if you want the taste of mustard,
the same way you do salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder,
why wouldn't you use mustard powder?
It would stick to it.
It's far less messy.
I don't really know how you get that char or that grill that you're looking for
with the mustard.
I guess it works with a burger, but I feel like you're just like cooking it off.
I love a smash burger.
God.
So delicious.
The caramelized meat.
Oh my God with the special sauce.
But a real good smash burger, they've got to do very thinly sliced onions where they fry the burger in it, right?
Yes.
That's key.
Yes.
Mandelins, Josh, the mandolin.
Yeah.
It's not woman to lend.
Sorry, Olivia.
It's it's mandolin.
And this is a kitchen gadget.
Again, not the U.S.
But Aresa and a mandolin.
Buy a mandolin.
You know why it's called mandolin?
Because it's stupid.
It's a stupid device.
Of course.
It's essential.
Of course the appliance called a mandolin is the thing that could put you in the hospital quickest.
So true.
So stupid.
You're so right.
No, they shouldn't sell them without gloves.
Because you literally, you're at the end, you're doing the end and you're like just one more push.
Finger off.
All done.
All done.
Now, I also saw.
a steak being in a mayonnaise bath, a mayonnaise bath, and then grilled in the mayonnaise, which I guess
is just fat on fat, right? It's just, yeah, you know, that one I actually like more, because the
secret to a good crust is mayonnaise. If you're making like grilled cheese and you want it like golden
on the outside, smear a little mayo on the outside. It's the key to a golden crust. So I have to
assume, Josh, that it would also be the key to a golden crust on steak. It's just like butter.
It's fantastic. True, that. I love mayo. I love mayo. Well, I want to get to a moron mail really
quick because you did set me up beautifully for it. And we love our moron mailers who have just
the cutest little accent. So, hope please, because this is important. This is from Anonymous.
Moron Mail. Hello, Josh and Ben, English Moron here, and Toaster.
Calling from London, England, I'm not sure if you've ever been to the UK before, but we're not really known for our cuisine, but I think personally that you can't beat a toad in the hole followed by a spotted dick.
Yes, these are real dishes here, by the way. But my question to you two is, if you ever came over to England, what British food would you really like to try and why?
Cheerio for now. Bye.
I know what toad in the hole is because we have toad in the hole is you crack an egg in,
we call it like Rocky Mountain toast or like that's what it is.
It's a piece of bread, you cut out the middle and you fry an egg in it.
It turns into like just a delicious breakfast.
That's toad in the hole.
It's kind of like a hillbilly crockmuntour.
Sounds delicious.
Yeah.
I'm in.
What is a spotted dick?
I've never heard of that before.
It's me in the mid-2000s, no.
It's a traditional British steamed pudding made with suet, dried fruit, typically raisins or currants, and often served for the custard.
Yuck.
That's delicious.
No.
Looks like a tall, like, pound cake, kind of.
I don't discriminate against desserts.
I'm in for a spot of dick.
I'm also in for a spot of dick.
Yeah.
Why not?
You can get a spot of that dick.
I, um...
I'll take two of your finest dick.
I, um, it sounds like a...
It sounds like a day dude from the Bronx.
It goes, goes to the UK and it's trying to hook up, like, trying to cruise me.
Like, like, yo, son, let me get a spot of that dick.
I'm out here acclimating, G.
I'm climatizing, my G.
Put some dick on the barbeat.
No.
In the Australian.
Oh, man.
What was I going to say about?
Oh, British cuisine.
So, you know, I follow Bosch.
Do you follow this guy?
John Bosch.
You've told me about Bosch before.
I was going to say, I don't know what British cuisine.
is. So I find it difficult to answer this question. But let's talk more about Bosch because I
Bosch is a good man. Bosch is the best. And so first of all, and I, I'm going all inclusive
with British cuisine here because they do so many other different ethnicity cuisine so well there.
First, I would have to eat it to Blue Orchid, which is his favorite Chinese spot. And I'd have to
Hong Kong prunes and chili beef, special fried rice, chicken chamein,
Prong bowls, I would have to do it all.
And then after I went to the Blue Orchid, he famously eats pie and mash.
So it's the old school like their meat pies, then a bunch of mash.
Then they put on the liquor, the liquor, which is like a green parsley gravy.
It's kind of interesting.
Then a chili vinegar.
And then he does it old school British style with stewed eel, which missed me on that.
But yeah, but the pie and mash sounds amazing.
Yeah, so I guess, because that's what I was thinking.
Like, when you think of American cuisine, sure, we have the melting pot of all of the best of everything.
But American cuisine is what?
Burgers, fries, hot dogs, like, that's American.
So when she said British cuisine, I certainly wasn't thinking of like the number one Chinese restaurant in Britain.
But, yeah, I'm down.
Yeah.
Okay, fish and chips.
love. I love a fish and chip. If that's, if that's technically British cuisine, I'm all over
that. I was thinking just like, don't they just eat like beans on toast? Isn't that British cuisine?
Is it? Oh, yeah. It's fabulous. You never really had it? No. No, I've never really thought. And I love,
I love a bean. Beans are great. I would. I would. It's interesting. It's a perfect balance.
So what you do is you go to, go to world market. You have those in, in the city?
No.
There's got to be somewhere where, like, a British food supply store where they have the green cans of Heinz beans, the British beans.
They're kind of sweet, but it's like a sweeter baked bean.
And then you just do a beautiful toast with butter on it.
Then you cook up the beans with a little salt and pepper on it, and you just pour it over the toast.
It's amazing.
I can't tell you how good it is.
My sister-in-law, Taylor, loves it.
So I need to try this because I think you know this, Josh.
I now bake my own bread.
And let me tell you my sourdough journey.
Bad.
I am just.
My bread is fantastic.
I have a fresh loaf at home, a gorgeous fresh loaf.
So I will toast up some bread.
I'll get these sweet beans.
I'll put the sweet beans on the bread.
I'll try it.
I'm in.
Bad.
I'm not going to discriminate against it.
I'm in.
What else is a British cuisine?
Shepherds pie?
It feels more Irish.
But yeah, Shepherds pie.
That's that's just like a like a beef kind of like pot pie situation, right?
But I think it's like technically shepherds.
Bake mashed potatoes on top of Shepherds.
Oh yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Fantastic.
That's an invention.
A Wellington, a beef Wellington, which I've only heard about.
I think it's a myth.
That's like the Gordon Ramsey.
Like he rolls it.
I mean, he covers it, bakes it.
In the puff pastry.
And it's like a filet mignon that.
It's puff pastry.
It seems incredibly unnecessary.
It's such true.
Like, I guess I could, I guess so.
Like, I love just like a filet mignon.
I need to roll it in puff pastry.
Yes.
Seems like a little nut.
You know what else is very American?
A deep dish pizza.
Deep dish, right?
What are your feelings on deep dish?
Or do you want to save it for the Patreon?
No, I'm kidding.
My feelings on deep dish.
Maybe this is just such a New York thing.
came and went with Pizza Uno.
I loved Pizza Uno.
This was like, this was like it.
Okay, you'd go, you'd get a deep dish.
Yeah, Chicago style, but this is what we did in New York.
And the second that Pizza Uno went out of business, in my opinion, so did the deep dish.
I'm sure they're still serving it in Chicago and you can get it.
It's great.
But in New York, it was Pizza Uno or bust.
Have you been to Chicago and had like Gerdanos or Luminari?
Or Erics.
No, there's no Erics.
No, Luminatis.
That's what it's called Luminatis.
Lumomottis.
Lumomottis.
Yeah, yeah.
Whatever.
I've had that, yes.
I have had that.
Fantastic.
I like, look, if you're going to have delicious bread,
delicious sauce and delicious cheese,
this is a combo,
I actually, it's probably an unpopular opinion.
I love, like, a faccatia-style pizza.
As long as it's good.
Roman, yeah.
I'll take my sourdough, put great sauce,
great cheese throw out in the oven, it'll taste delicious.
Like, I like bread, sauce, and cheese.
That said, if your sauce is no good, if your cheese is no good,
then you, and your bread is no good, you have a problem.
But if it's good, deep dish made right is fantastic.
You agree?
Yeah, I like cafeteria-style pizza.
Like, I can appreciate mostly all of it.
I don't know if you've ever had a slice at 7-Eleven,
but sometimes 7-Eleven bucks.
I probably have, and I'm sure that place in time and time
place. It's all fantastic. It's all fantastic. This episode of the Good Guys podcast is brought to you by

Based on over 100 studies, we now know that C-15,
15 strengthens our cells and is a key longevity enhancing nutrient, which helps to slow biological aging at the cellular level.
In fact, when our cells don't have enough C-15, they become fragile and age faster.
And when our cells age, our bodies age two.
This eventually led to studies finding the first new nutritional deficiency in 75 years called cellular fragility syndrome.
Caused by a lack of, you guessed at the essential fatty acid C-15.
As many as one in three people worldwide may have low C-15 levels.
and cellular fragility syndrome.
And the best way to fix it, folks, is Fatty 15.

What was your growing up?
What was your go-to frozen pizza?
Ooh, go-to frozen pizza.
I don't think we did.
The frozen things that I did were like lean cuisines when we were like trying to be.
skinny and I would have like nine fetuccini alfredo liquezines and have diarrhea for a month like that
that wasn't keeping me healthy or skinny i don't i didn't really do frozen pizza i think like in the
city like there was never really a need for frozen pizza there's pizza everywhere you did frozen pizza
sure yeah we would get it from the 99 cent store so one out of four you'd get um food poisoning but
we but we did like you know the red baron or the celeste
Celeste was super hot and super cheap.
And then somewhere in the 90s, they dropped DeJurno, and that's really when my cholesterol
spiked.
Like, that was, that did me in.
I've never had, of course, you know, it's not delivery.
It's DeJourne.
There's a, there's a pizza brand now.
As a marketer, Ben, is a brilliant entrepreneurial mind.
It's not Delivery DeJourneau, one of the great catchphrases ever?
Of all time.
Of all time.
Yeah.
They crushed.
They crushed.
And it also goes to show you.
If you have a great line, you don't even need a great product.
I know that line and I have no idea if their pizza's any good.
It's not delivery.
It's dejorn.
Sick.
So, sick.
It's so good.
I do have, it's funny, in our fridge, I never ate frozen pizza, but I actually have frozen
pizza in our fridge now.
Claudia loves this company, Coal 87.
If you've heard of them, they are like amazing, amazing, like classic, like Italian-style pies.
thin sauce cheese.
Neplatano.
Yes, exactly.
Delicious.
Delicious.
That said, we literally live next to New York has some of the best pizza period.
Sure.
I don't know why you need it, but.
What's good pizza on the east side?
Is it like on Upper East Side?
Is there scars up there?
Yeah, I like just like a classic.
Maybe this is like my version of eating frozen peasant.
I like rays. I like these like classic. Like there are like those like really popular Johns or
Joe's or scars or what's the one that your friend also owns the one with the print street.
Like there are these places, of course. But like I think it's very hard to find a bad slice in New York.
You'll look at the place. And if it looks scary, don't go in. Right. But if it doesn't look scary,
the pizza is going to be good. Like,
I yeah like I like a I think the place near me is raised there's another one like called little Italy
pizza even though it's nowhere near little Italy it's delicious 90 blocks from little Italy
pizza literally but it's it's delicious oh man has the pizza scene in L.A. I know it's gotten better. Is it
good? Yeah we have so funny enough I just ate at this new place that Portnoy gave it like high
eights and said it was a contender. The best.
In my opinion, and there's actually, it's very easy to get now.
There's multiple locations.
Portnoy put them on the map and they really deliver is prime pizza.
I think it's the best.
Yeah, we agree.
You go to the one on Santa Monica Boulevard.
Of course, you know, I do.
Absolutely.
Absolutely, I'm bleeping that.
Yeah, put that away.
So, okay, so Livino knows what's up.
But then there's two places.
There's a new spot called Flower in Brentwood, quite good.
quite good, very busy.
Could use some more staff?
You are or W?
I think F-L-O-U-R or F-L-O-W-E-R, like flower or flower?
F-L-O-U-R.
Okay, cool.
Yeah.
Just making sure.
Yeah.
That makes more sense.
And then there's Apollinas, which are Apollo, apollina.
I think it's Apollinas.
On Wilshire and LeBreya, unbelievable.
Very difficult hours.
Like, like almost intentionally.
But see, that's why their pizza is great.
What I was going to say, any place where you're going and you're able to get a fresh slice of pizza, this is going to be delicious pizza.
More often than not, you're not getting fresh pizza, especially in the city.
Like, these are made in the morning, put out, reheated.
It's just not the same.
If you can get a fresh pie, that's why the constricted hours, that's key, Josh.
Because they know your pizza can't be.
that old. Meanwhile, this little Italy pizza, even though it's fantastic, they open at nine,
they close never. So I don't know when they made that pizza. Like, and it's still good, but imagine
if you got it when it first came out. Wow. It's actually called Apollonias. I want to give them
the hype on LeBray and Wilshire. And now with Kimmelgonne and state-sponsored media in,
I just want to say, my favorite pizza is Doebricks, located in West. And, you know,
Hollywood.
It is so delicious.
Thick, thick slices.
Yum.
How is the pizza?
It's good.
I like it.
It's fine.
It's like totally good.
It's so funny.
He gets a lot of heat for it.
So it was an easy one.
I saw him.
He has a chip brand that looks yummy.
Have you had those waivers?
I have it.
No.
They look good.
Yeah.
This is like,
is it only sold at the pizza place?
I know. I would imagine
knowing him, he's going to get it put everywhere.
Could you imagine you guys do a spritz
and dough chips
collab? I love it. I love it.
Sitting next to each other in a display at Tarjeet.
I'm in. I'm in, Josh, we should make a chip.
I actually had somebody approach me the other day. He's been white labeling
Rinole. So he has, forever, he's like a granola.
I love white washing. I love white labeling.
But he has no brand, Josh.
Should we make the brand around the granola?
I love granola.
I'm nuts for Nola.
Is that our catchphrase?
That's good. Nuts for Nola.
What are you nuts?
Ooh, no, we need a nuts brand.
Fuck planters.
They never paid us anything.
You know, it's a fucking layup for them to sponsor, what are you nuts?
Fuck you, planters.
We should make a nut competitor.
Oh, I love it.
But I've recently been feeling that nuts are bullshit.
You think so?
Am I nuts for this?
I think so.
Josh,
leave.
I know they're so calorie dense.
They're so calorie dense.
Like,
I know.
I know.
It's like the next.
It's like the next time you're hungry, Josh,
pick up a,
I know I just said fuck planters.
Pick up a salted planters.
Yeah.
Take a nice scoop in a can.
In a can.
And my God,
is it delicious?
So good.
But yeah, no, it is, it's basically a drinking oil.
You're right.
My mother-in-law makes Ben, it would knock your socks off how good this granola is.
It is so beyond good.
And the woman.
What is she put in it?
So she does it.
And she recently said, have you noticed the difference?
I said, no, it's as good as ever.
She goes, I'd stop that in sugar.
Wow.
She just uses maple syrup.
as a light sweetener, I believe, maple syrup.
But it is so beyond good, but she gate keeps it.
She'll be like, I brought some over.
I said, thank you.
And what granola will I be eating tomorrow?
Because this is no longer going to be here tonight.
And she goes, well, I'll see you in six to eight months.
It's like, Stacey, we need more.
And you have no idea what's in it.
Is it nuts?
It's a mix of nuts and oats and, um,
It's just fabulous.
It's all, there isn't a bit that isn't crunchy, and that's why it's great.
That's the key.
Very crunchy, very.
And is she thrown a little dried fruit or no fruit?
I don't think she does dried fruit, but I agree.
Granola should have a misophonia scale, right?
So it should say, if you are married to someone to misophonia, my wife,
you might want them to leave the room with this granola.
It's a 10 on the misophonia scale.
I need fruit in my granola, Josh.
I need a dried fruit.
I need the best I've ever had,
I had a granola that had a little bit of dried pineapple in it.
This is a tropical paradise.
Tropical.
This is a tropical paradise.
I love a dried cranberry.
Fantastic.
I love anything, any dried fruit, I'm dried fruit.
Yes.
I'm dried fruit.
100%.
Me, dried fruit.
Guess what I did Saturday night because there's no one like me, Ben.
I want to know.
And then I'll tell you what I did Saturday night.
I want to know.
So Saturday night, my buddy Josh, who we worked in the show Turner and Hooch together, he produced it.
And so when we met five years ago, his son Noah was, I don't know, I guess it would have to be eight years old.
And he was really sweet and really cute.
and a big Josh Peck fan shout out.
Respect.
So cut to five years later, in May of this year,
Josh writes me and says, listen,
Noah's having a bar mitzvah.
I don't expect you to come,
but he would like you to be invited.
So if you, by chance,
have nothing to do mid-September
on a Saturday night,
you are more than welcome to show.
I said, when and where,
when and where, my boy.
Smart.
So cut to Saturday night.
It's 7 o'clock at night.
I've just put down the second of my third child of my three children.
And I go, it's no one's bar mitzvah!
I literally just remembered.
I'm like, I go check the invitation real quick.
I didn't RSVP.
I'm like, I'm just going.
I'm like, I didn't, I'm not having a meal.
Who cares?
And so it was going to 10 o'clock at night.
I put down young Max and I showed up at 8.30.
at night and let me the reception these people the appreciation now granted
13 year olds are no longer my demo so no one was taking me around going do you
know who this is he's a professional actor his buddies were like is this I
don't know is this Takashi 6 9 I don't know what you know what we had a fun 45
minutes I went to the photo booth I met the grandparents it was super cute
and I'm really glad I went.
See, this is why you're the best.
This is fantastic.
And this is the right move.
That said, now you've got to start showing up.
I'm sure, do you know how many morons would love to have you at their wedding?
And do you know the way you would be received, Josh?
Do you know the way you would be received?
Not this is some actor.
This is the actor.
This is him.
Can we put it out to our very wealthy listeners that you and I will go to a wedding for the right price?
Yes.
We will go to a wedding for the right price.
Okay.
What's that price?
That price is only to be discussed on the back of an app and pushed across the table.
It's $100,000.
That's fair, right?
And you know what?
We'll pay for our own plane in no doubt.
I think that's the right amount of money depending on where it is.
And as long as I'm safe.
Yes.
I'm not going for $100,000 to your wedding.
in, I don't know, somewhere random and scary, you know?
Okay.
Because who knows?
But Missouri?
Dayton?
Sure.
Sure.
Dayton.
Home of the Wright brothers and home of the wheel.
Bicycle factory.
Not the event.
Home of the wheel.
That would be super cute.
Yeah, I'm in.
This episode of the Good Guys podcast is brought to you by our friends.
It's Sacks underwear.
Folks, I've spoken about them before, but I'm obsessed.
B-S-T-L, what an acronym.
Ball stuck to the leg.
The boys are sweating.
They're stuck to the leg.
There's a huge problem.
And the only people who even gave a crap to solve it are the people at Sacks.
Because Sacks is the original pouch underwear, changing the game since 2006 with its patented ballpark pouch technology.
It's the most comfortable underwear for men, period.
And let me tell you, folks, okay, styles for every situation from lounging to high-intensity
sport. Sacks underwear is designed with the patented ballpark pouch, which is essentially
a hammock that keeps everything in its place and prevents unwanted skin-on-skin contact,
which means no chafing, no riding up, no weird adjusting in the day, which means no weird
looks, okay? We see you adjusting. Stop it. Stop adjusting and get the Sacks underwear. Okay,
folks, the New York Times wire cutter has rated Sacks underwear in its top underwear picks two years
in a row for a reason. And that's because they are comfortable. My God, next level comfort,
folks. Okay. It's the kind of underwear you notice when you first put on, but then completely
forget about because it is that level of comfort. And let me tell you about gifting, okay?
This is the perfect gift, ladies. This is the perfect gift. If your man is still in his old
boxers, okay, he's still in his old briefs. Okay, he does a little bit too much adjusting.
Get him a pair of sacks underwear and he'll thank you later. It's a fantastic gift.
Folks, think about it. You change your oil.
Upgrade your phone.
Rotate your sneakers.
But you're still rocking those stretched out boxers from college.
What are you nuts?
Your underwear is the one thing you wear every single day.
Sacks underwear gives you breathable fabric, no ride up legs, and a pouch that keeps everything in its lane.
Upgrade your drawers.
Upgrade your day.

This episode of The Good Guys podcast is brought to you by our friends at Oli Pop.
Folks, I've been an Oli Pop fan for the longest time.
Their sodas are absolutely unbelievable, so incredibly delicious.
And let me tell you, folks, they just did the collab of the century with Paramount Pictures.
Are you ready for this?
The pineapple-iest soda from bikini bottom.
That's right, folks, inspired by SpongeBob's iconic pineapple home.
The new limited-time flavor comes in five collectible SpongeBob can designs.
hidden inside four packs.
Each pack is like a treasure hunt.
You'll never know which design you'll get.
Collect them all and unlock sweet rewards
at drinkollipop.com slash SpongeBob.
You're curious what this tastes like.
Juicy pineapple sweetness
with a splash of Mandarin,
pure liquid joy, just like SpongeBob himself,
and it's available folks at Walmart, Target, Whole Foods,
Kroger, Publix, Amazon, and more.
And folks, this is all in line
with the SpongeBob movie.
Search for SquarePants,
which opens December 19.
only in theaters.
Again, I've been a fan of OliPop for a long time, but in case you're not familiar with them,
OliPop is a new kind of soda that combines the classic soda taste with the benefits of a functional
ingredient blend to support digestive health.
OliPop is reimagining soda with high fiber and just two to five grams of sugar per can.
As you guys know, I'm a big fan of health, big fan of supplements, big fan of wellness.
Here at the Ben Sofer Longevity Institute of Technology, we love OliPop because OliPop helps us on our
health journey. Did you know that two out of three Americans say they suffer from digestive issues?
That's not good. And did you know that what helps with digestive issues is fiber? And Olipop has nine
grams of prebiotic fiber in every can. You're drinking a delicious, nostalgic soda, but
getting all of this prebiotic fiber. Flavors like vintage cola, classic root beer,
orange squeeze, classic grape, strawberry. There's so many flavors to pick from the beautiful
bikini bottom flavor, all with so much probiotic flavor.
So folks, what more do you need to hear?
Get $2 off a four pack of Olipop.
Here's how it works.
You go to DrinkOllipop.com slash Good Guys to get $2 off a four pack at any retailer, including SpongeBob.

Yeah.
In case I look like I'm in pain this morning, it's because I'm in pain.
Okay.
Friday night and Saturday night, again, we've been in Rubyland.
Ruby Bliss.
Ruby Bliss.
The second my wife stopped drinking when she was pregnant, I also stopped drinking.
I'll have like a sprits or like a like a drink every couple of months.
It just like it hasn't been my thing.
Josh, Friday night wedding, Saturday and a night wedding.
Sunday night baby shower that was also like a party.
Oh, I am hurting.
Saturday night, your boy got drunk as a skunk.
Whoa.
Drunk as a skunk.
Oh, and I'm still, let me tell you, I'm feeling it this morning.
I am in pain.
My bones are inflamed.
I shot up 10 pounds on the scale.
Ouch.
10.
And it was really fun.
Sounds it.
What, what, what's it look like when you're shithoused?
How do you act?
I get, I get like dancey, happy, funny, unfiltered.
That's me.
That's me.
Really unfiltered.
Really unfiltered.
Olivia, you?
I'm about the same.
Yeah, I love to just add fun, giggle.
I do, the Russian accents start to come out sometimes.
Yeah, yeah, we try to be careful with that.
No, but just fun.
And I get like very.
Not overbearingly lovey-dovey, but I will make sure that you know that I care about you.
Me too.
I'm like, you're an awesome person.
I love you.
And they're like, we just that.
I'm like, you're great.
I appreciate you.
The accents is so real.
Should we get to Moron Mail?
More on Mail.
Nice.
And we have a big announcement with Moron Mail.
So we think it would be fun to do some live call-ins where we get to interact with our morons face-to-face or at least ear-to-ear.
So here's our thoughts.
Sometimes when we do a moron mail, we want to get a little more info.
We want to do a follow-up.
So when you go to speakpipe.com slash good guys to leave your message or ask for some advice,
make sure you leave your email, and we might choose one of you to call in a new episode.
I love it.
I love it.
It's fantastic.
Yes.
Make sure to leave your email.
Make sure you leave your email if you want to be on the show.
Very exciting.
And it might just happen.
At the very least, you might get to talk to Olivia.
maybe if you're lucky if you're lucky um okay so our first piece of moron mail is from oh this is something
i did this weekend let's go to anonymous um i am going to keep this short and sweet i'm a big fan
um but let's get to the point here so my friend from college was at a baptism today and she texted
And I was like, oh my God, Josh Peck just walked in.
And I was like, oh my God.
Like, I'm like the biggest fan of like his and Ben saw first podcast.
And long story short, she like didn't want to know who you guys were.
She didn't like even say hello and tell him that like I'm the good guy's biggest fan.
So I need your advice because I think I should end our friendship.
No, not actually, but like, more people need to know about you guys.
So I'm just spreading awareness.
And yeah, love you guys.
Love you.
That is a shame.
That said Josh, there's nothing worse.
I'm happy on your behalf that she didn't come up to you and say, oh my God,
my friend is your biggest fan.
Fair.
Totally.
Don't care at all that your friend is my best.
biggest fan. Sorry, it's just not endearing at all. If you want to perhaps record a video for
the friend or maybe a call or a FaceTime or something, that's fun. That's cool. When somebody comes up
to me and says, oh my God, my girlfriend's mother's housekeeper is your biggest fan. I want to say,
what are you nuts and shake you? That said, the fact that you didn't know who Josh Peck was,
what are you living under a rock? The fact that you didn't know this podcast? What are you living under a rock?
There's a beautiful man in Pakistan that knows this podcast.
You don't know this podcast?
What are you living under a rock?
That's a new segment.
What are you living under a rock?
Love it.
Yeah, you know, this was my first baptism.
And let me tell you, I think I have the tism because it was a lovely ceremony.
You put the tism in baptism?
Yes.
I love it.
That's a great episode title.
Putting the tism in baptism.
I really think that I do.
My wonderful nephew, the beautiful Gus was babes.
was baptized my wife's sister Blake and her and her husband will and uh it was short and sweet
it was nice that everyone got dressed up it was nice to be in this gorgeous church priest did a great
job he was like i must not be doing this right because none of the kids are crying none of the
babies cried as they got their little got their dunk and uh and the best part was as we're
standing there because this is just our people ben a guy sidles up to me with like a nice
sized beard and built like you and me and he looks at me and he goes, nice to have another
Semetic brother in here.
So was.
It was like, oh my God.
I've told you the story about how I met my now best friend the first day of college,
or no?
No.
I literally walked up to him.
I'm like, this might be weird, but like, pretty sure you're Jewish.
I'm Jewish, too.
We should be friends.
It's literally exactly like what that guy said, Semitic.
Are there so funny?
Are there a big non-Jewish contingency at Yeshiva?
Sorry.
So I went to, for those that don't know, I actually went to City College Baruch for one year before transferring to Yashiva.
So this is at Baruch, which has some Jews, some Pakistani, some Indian.
It is a full-blown melting pot.
Full-blown melting pot.
It is funny, though, that you're saying that about city college Baruch.
Totally.
So I met, you'll never get it.
It's very, it's really Baruch.
Like, but it is actually spelled Baruch.
It's so funny.
I met another Jewish kid in City College hot dog.
It's city college kidnish.
I can't believe I'm.
met somebody, Jewish and you could fill to school.
That is so good.
Yeah, dude, a baptism is fun, fun, fun.
I thought it was really cute.
So you pour water on their heads.
I've seen videos where they like literally, it looks like they're drowning them,
which is not this.
Like, this is just, you're just supposed to put a little water on the head, right?
That's a baptism?
Yeah.
So why do some people, Olivia, maybe you know the answer to this.
Like, why do you see some videos where they're like literally putting them in a dunk tank?
Like, is there any, like, is it, right?
Like Greek Orthodox?
Perhaps.
I'm not entirely sure about the, like, distinction there.
But I know, like, if you're a grown-up and you're doing it, like, you're, you can get dunked underneath.
Like, you know, you go all the way underneath.
It's like a spiritual cleansing of the sin.
Sure.
But for the baby, I don't, they don't do the dunking because the baby doesn't know how to hold the water, I think.
Right.
But I've seen videos where they, like, take babies and they, like, they don't.
They really do.
Dunk them.
You usually see it, I feel like in more of like a different style, like a Greek Orthodox
church or, but it's, yeah, those videos are amazing.
But this was, and this is also, basically you're sort of committing the child to be brought up
in Christ and Catholicism.
And then this is also when the godparents are sort of given their distinction.
And because I grew up with a godparent, but I think it was just.
entitled because traditionally it's for them to help shepherd that kid through their sort of
like religious experience, right?
Yeah, I also grew up with grand, with godparents in title only.
Right.
I think that was like, like, when you want to be like nice to a friend or something.
Yeah.
But they're not like an uncle or an aunt, but they're really close.
Like at least that was my experience.
I also had fake aunts and uncles.
Do you have any of those?
Sure.
Uncle Bob.
I have just, yeah, it's just like, you're not my uncle.
Like, you're factually not my uncle.
Like Uncle Russell love him.
My dad's nephew.
Not my uncle.
The opposite.
But he's uncle.
But you're going to like, when you meet my kids, you're going to be Uncle Ben.
Just because like, then you'd have to be.
Because it'd be weird for them to call you Ben.
And then it also, like, if you were an adult who wasn't close to me, you'd be Mr.
Ben with my kids.
So I feel like if you're close to me, I'm giving you an on an uncle title.
Yeah.
No, you should have it, but then we should also, we should change the name of an actual aunt and uncle.
Yeah.
Right?
Like, what should they be?
Like, my sister's brother or my, I don't know.
My mother's brother.
Yes.
I love that formal.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
This next one is from.
Imagine we just spoke to everybody like that, like in a full family tree style.
Like, oh, my sister's son's brother.
Good to see you.
Yes.
It's my sister-in-law's son, Gus.
This episode of the Good Guys podcast is brought to you by our friends at AG1.
Folks, you know that I've been a huge fan of AG1 since the beginning.
I absolutely love taking their greens powder every single morning.
I'm a big fan of the stick packs, those gorgeous stick packs that are sold at Costco.
I absolutely love them because they make me start my day on the right note.

I've spoken about this before and I'll speak about it again.
It gives me the sustainable energy throughout the day that I just miss when I don't take it.
I absolutely miss it.
I notice a huge difference when I don't take AG1 versus when I do take AG1.
And I just trust AG1 because I've been taking it honestly at this point for almost two years every single day.
and I'm not going to claim this, okay,
but I've gotten sick significantly less.
They did not tell me to say that.
I'm just saying it.
I've gotten sick significantly less,
and I think that's because I'm properly hydrated
and because I have all of these vitamins and nutrients
that come from taking my greens powder with AG1.
It's absolutely fantastic,
and again, it's the best way to start my morning.
It makes my routine so seamless
by taking that stick pack,

turn into reality. You have a dream. Okay. Let me look at you when I say this. Let me look at you when I say this.
You have a dream. Okay. You've so many wonderful ideas, right? What are those ideas? They're sitting in your
head. They're not doing anything. It's not real until you have a product and until you have a website.
You have an idea, a revolutionary product. You need somewhere to sell it. You need to make it.
And Shopify is just that. Shopify is turning ideas into dream. It's terrible. It's turning. It's
dreams into reality. It really is. I started Sprit Society just off of an idea. I had a million
ideas. I had a million bad ideas. And what made this a product versus an idea was that we went,
of course, we raised money, we built a business, we made a product, and then we put it on
Shopify, and we sold it to customers, and then we got feedback, and then we sold more to customers,
and then we got more feedback. Shopify is the best, it's the best by far. It's the best place to

Absolutely fantastic.
But again, it's purchased.

This next one's from Ashley.
Hi, big moron and toaster here.
I'll be quick, Revity's key.
So this girlfriend went high school gets engaged, so happy for her.
The photos go up.
She's in a blue dress, and they're in a nice location,
and then I guess friends and family show up.
They bring her a white dress, and she changes, has a little photo shoot, whatever,
like pretty typical to have a post-engagement photo shoot.
But then, she posts a full carousel with two down on,
one knee photos, like same location, same pose, literally same backdrop, just one in the white
dress and one in the blue dress. Like, did she make him get back down on one knee for the outfit
change? And then to post both versions, if she only posted the white dress, like, fine, like,
I respect the hustle. But to post both back to back, I truly thought I was losing my mind.
I even texted my friends like, are you guys seeing this too? Or like, am I actually hallucinating?
What are your thoughts? What are you nuts? Or am I nuts? Let me know. Love you guys.
You're nuts.
Who gives a shit?
Like, you're,
like,
you're nuts.
And like,
this is,
you sound lovely,
but like,
I hate,
like,
I don't know,
like,
can we just care a little bit less?
Like,
it's the girl's wedding.
She did what she did.
Like,
she was happy.
We don't always have to,
like, be,
even though,
like,
it's fun to be negative.
I totally get it.
But, like,
I don't know,
who cares?
Actually,
this isn't,
it's not even that.
I don't care.
I don't care.
Do you care?
My thought on it is, and I'd be interested to hear, Olivia, too, because I'm sure you have plenty of friends,
is that this is the problem with digital photos and film costing nothing nowadays.
Pictures used to be special because there wasn't an infinite amount.
And so, like, there would be that one great photo of, like, grandma and grandpa when they got engaged,
or mom and dad, like, and you know, it's like one photo, right?
Because it just, if you were lucky, you got, you know, it just, the idea of having
photoshoots for everything, there's a literal photo shoot for everything nowadays.
And so I think in general, like, we just don't care because we see too much of people.
Totally.
And when somebody brings their camera out, that's special.
Like my sister-in-law, Margot, she has, like, I don't know what this, like, special
camera is where, like, it just, every fucking picture looks amazing.
Like, that's film versus, yeah, on our phones, we can document everything.
And it's no longer special at all.
I would prefer quality over quantity.
But it sounds like, I mean, and just in general, like, I mean, there's a photo shoot for
everything, like you said.
And people want to like make everything like this big, beautiful moment.
I think in this instance, it's clearly a very special thing for this woman.
And to Ben's point, quite frankly, who gives a shit?
Like, you know, how she's taking her pictures or what she's wearing.
But then it's also like, yeah, she puts.
put it out there. So I don't know. I think that's just a broader thing with our culture,
though, where people just, like, think they're really important all the time. Yeah.
You know, so. Yeah. Like, they do. What I do think that they're too important. That really is
what it is. Like, I think they're too important. It's a rat's ass. You should do this because it's your
first, because it's Ruby's first year on earth. Are you guys planning a Christmas card?
Ooh.
Oh, holiday card?
We should.
We should.
No, I like a Christmas card.
Let's throw a Ruby on Santa.
Like, that sounds great.
Yeah.
You know?
So cute.
Or like me and Claudia dress up as Mr. and Mrs. Claus and he's just beautiful baby.
It's like so, I'm in.
Yeah, no, we should do that.
I wasn't planning on doing it.
I'm doing it now.
And it's going to be full Christmas theme.
Love it, love it, love it, love it, love it.
Maybe we'll rent like, can you rent like a sleigh?
Is that a company?
Like rent a sleigh?
Slay.
A sleigh.
But again, like, I want to see Ruby all done up and new family.
When you have new kids, definitely.
But, like, you know, they'll be like Asher's eight and Dina's 11.
And there's their Boy Scouts.
Shut up.
Yeah, no.
Sometimes these Christmas cards, they have newsletters on the back of like,
here's a quick update with what the family's been up to.
Don't care.
If I need to find out from your.
yearly gift card? No, you miss me. We're not that close. No, but I do think we should get back to,
do you guys do a yearly card? No. Sometimes we miss a year. So we'll like you every other year.
And we've had new kids. I like a yearly card, but not one, not one that gives me an update on you.
Maybe it's like one that I'm trying to think like what could be multi-use. Like, what could you
use this photo. I don't know. Selling real estate. You know, we just put our house up.
Happy holidays. Also, if you're looking for a five bedroom. Or we just like put a QR code that scans
to listen to the podcast. Yeah. If you, happy holidays, by the way, in case you need something
for your canoe. Yeah. Listen to good guys. Yeah. I like it. That way we can get the podcast to pay for it.
And we can write it off, you see?
Please.
You see?
All right.
Well, our next moron mail is from Lee.
Hey, good guys.
My name's Lee.
I actually thought it was really funny how Ben a couple weeks ago was talking about if there was a girl named Lee and a girl named Haley in the same room.
And someone said, hey, Lee, like, who would turn around?
Because I've literally done that for someone named Haley.
Anyway.
Nice.
My question is, I have a good friend who is essentially copying my wedding.
I got married on a cruise this past May.
She was there.
And after the cruise, she decided that she wanted to do the same exact thing for her wedding to her boyfriend at the time who she hadn't even been dating for a year.
So now she's planning on getting married in the same.
June, 26, on the same exact boat to the same exact destination.
And my question is, do I approach her on how weird this is for me?
Like, I should be flattered, but I just find the whole thing very strange.
And it's kind of making me uncomfortable just because she barely even knows this guy.
I barely know him.
And they're just essentially copying the whole same exact wedding.
So do I approach her on how this is making me feel uncomfortable
Or do I just be fake happy and know that my wedding can't be topped anyway?
Thanks for your advice.
Well, two things.
The first is, okay, so first and foremost, Lee,
I also think similarly to the past speak pipe, moron male, excuse me,
that you shouldn't care.
You went first,
and I hate to break it to you,
you didn't invent the cruise.
Totally, bro.
Like, like, like, this, like isn't,
you don't own the cruise.
You're not the first person to get married on that cruise.
Like, I get that maybe it feels a little weird for you,
but you should be flattered,
and your idea was not original in the slightest.
at like at all there's nothing original about any of your plans you definitely worked with
the planner who worked with thousands of people before you like there is nothing original about
what you did so you being offended that she took your unoriginal idea and is pretending
that it's her original idea when they're both unoriginal ideas is a complete what are you
nuts and you're spending too much mental energy on it you should move on
All I have to say is this is what I imagine getting married on a cruise ship is like,
also they're both terrible.
Oh my God.
It's like, do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?
Oh my gosh.
Oh my God.
Sorry, the party deck just started.
And have you seen these cruises?
recently.
A mess.
Oh, they're a mess.
They're like, there's like chicken being thrown everywhere.
Like, I've seen some crazy videos.
Like, there's like chicken in the pool.
You don't want that.
No, there was, you're referencing the video of the people fighting over the chicken
tenders on the cruise ship.
Yes.
Yes.
Insane.
There were people fighting over chicken tenders on a cruise ship.
It's just, yeah.
I mean, a cruise ship wedding is,
is insane, and that's perfect, right?
It's unoriginal.
I would almost say the best way to get over it
is to be 100% helpful and of service to your friend
because you did it before.
You know exactly what's going to come up, right?
Where someone booked the stateroom with the veranda
and they're on level L8.
You know what I mean?
And like how much drama mean you have to pack for all your gas, right?
Like, help your friend.
Like you literally walk through.
this a year ago. And I think by you being, and by the way, in case there's any crossover amongst
friends and family who are going to be at both weddings, they know what's up. They know you had the first
wedding. They know what's up, a thousand percent. But the more I think about this, Josh, it's like
being upset that somebody got married at the same hotel you did. Like, that's why the hotel exists.
Right. To make revenue off of doing weddings. Like, I don't know. Also, like, the last thing,
sorry, this is just like a personal thing.
The last thing I would ever want to go to is a wedding on a cruise.
Yeah.
Don't invite me.
Like, I don't care who you are.
If you are my best friend and you put a wedding on a cruise, I won't be there.
Olivia feels bad.
Are we shitting on this girl's wedding too much?
No, the only thing, I agree with everything that you've said.
I'm sorry.
But the only thing that has stuck out to me about what she said was like the, the, the,
it seems like it was a quick turnaround with this guy.
That's like the guy that she's getting,
her friend is getting married to.
Right.
I would spend more time making sure that your friend is feeling secure and happy
and like this newer relationship that seems to be moving kind of quick.
I don't think like all, like she's not copy.
Maybe she's copying you, whatever.
Like that is kind of besides the point.
She probably had a great time at your wedding.
Like, you know, wanted to do the same thing.
But what sticks out to me is the fact that like it's all happened very quickly.
She's your friend.
You know, keep an eye on her.
Check in with her.
make sure that she's doing okay.
But also it's like her life and I don't think you need to care that much about it.
It's her life and you don't need to care that much.
That's the takeaway.
That's the takeaway.
She's doing something quick.
She knows that.
You don't need to tell her.
Like she got,
she met a guy,
got married.
Like we spend collectively,
we all spend too much time thinking about other people's problems.
It's their problem.
If they want help,
they're going to ask you.
And like I'm,
I,
I did this for so long, like trying to solve.
You can't solve the world's problems.
You can't.
You can't.
Like, otherwise you're just going to drive yourself fucking nuts.
Speaking to that, should we get to our Woody You Nuts?
What are you nuts?
Ripes, people, places, things.
Whatever, stick in your craw.
Josh, you got one.
Our Woody Nuts moment of the week, here it comes.
Oh, I ran into a buddy the other day at a restaurant.
Hadn't seen him in a long time.
with this lovely girlfriend,
and we're talking, catching up.
And he just,
he felt the need to explain
to his girlfriend who I am.
And I just was like,
yeah, no, no, I could just be your friend, man.
And he goes, you know who this is?
And she goes, yeah, yeah, I know.
And he's like, man, like, this guy is an influencer.
I was like, I got to go.
Like, I know that he was just trying to, like,
say nice things about me.
But he's like, this guy,
he, he, he,
be influencing and I'm like I gotta be leaving so you know what just say this is my friend so and so
nice to see you what do you know what is it josh about the word influencer that is so awful
like like really like it just it's such a terrible word when somebody says are you still influencing
if this actually happened that the uh the baby showers at somebody said to me are you still blocking
great god damn it like
It's so good.
I don't know why it's so bad,
but I totally agree.
Completely nuts.
My Whaty Nuts moment is I thought I made
like a groundbreaking discovery and comment
a couple of weeks ago.
When I said, I use head and shoulders all the time.
I don't understand why there's dandruff shampoos
and why people would choose to not use dandruff shampoos.
You can never get dandruff, Josh,
if you're always using head and shoulders, right?
Sure.
And you agreed.
You thought that was a good.
good call.
Yeah.
Until I found out that the number one ingredient in head and shoulders in dandruff shampoo
is something that makes you bald.
No.
What are you nuts?
Yes, you're only supposed to use it while you're having dandruff because it has an active
ingredient in it that causes male pattern baldness.
Oh, my God.
So if you use it all the time, if I told you to use it all the time, you could probably
sue me.
What are you nuts?
This is like...
You need to put that, like, front and center on the label.
I don't, I don't want to be bald, okay?
I just didn't want the flakes in my hair.
That's it.
I just, I couldn't believe it.
I could not believe it.
Once that episode came out, I probably got 100 DMs.
Ben, do you know that it causes male pattern baldness?
Like, I got to take my freaking neutrophil.
I got to triple it.
Yeah.
What are you nuts?
Not good.
That's crazy.
By the way, that would have been a good, having a good day.
How about now?
So true.
Right?
God, we'll get it.
We got to figure out the difference between that and what are you nuts.
But that's our problem, folks.
We won't bore you with that.
