Starting point is 00:00:00 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, do not be great guys, It's so good, good guy. Mazumorans, welcome back to the Good Guys podcast.
Starting point is 00:00:33 I'm worried that I just dose myself because I feel like this protein rice crispy where I just ate tasted like weed. Did I just have a slip on the podcast? No, there's no weed in here, right? Is this the podcast owner's company in the studio? It's his brother. Delicious.
Starting point is 00:00:53 Fabulous. No, it was very good. But I just, I was like, you know what you do? taste hemp. Yeah, you do, you do need to be. Yeah, I'm like, you can't just have these out if there's like drugs in them. You need to be careful. I've never thought about that with all of these functional beverages, Josh. You got to be careful. You could pick up what you think is a seltzer. All of a sudden, it is weed. There's weed. These weed drinks. They're everywhere. I'm usually pretty careful, but I will admit, I have been having fun, fun, fun with non-alcoholic
Starting point is 00:01:25 beers, which I'd never ever drank in my whole life. But recently. I've been like, these are delish. Which one? Athletic brewing? That's the big one. Athletic brewing is okay. I really like, there's a, you know, what's the Japanese brand? Asahi. Yes. Asahi makes a dry one. First of all, calorie-free. Zero calories. Zero calories. That one is delish. I get that from my local Japanese market, Mitsua. but I fucks with, yeah, I fucks with them.
Starting point is 00:01:58 A Heineken Zero? Sure. Double zero. I love that they could do zero point zero. There's something strong about that, you know? Not just Heineken Zero. Double zero. It's fantastic.
Starting point is 00:02:08 I feel bad about it. Goalie with a double zero as opposed to just like a zero. There's something very strong about the double zero. Don't tell anybody except for all of our listeners, but I have been mulling over like a Sprit Society, non-alc flavor. because I think it would just be like interesting. And if you don't drink, you can have it.
Starting point is 00:02:27 And if you do drink, it's perfect for mixing with alcohol. So who knows? I guess it's really just a mixer. But I've definitely been mulling that over. Speaking of drinks, have you ever had a diet Dr. Pepper? Have I? Sure. I've lived.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Yeah, I've lived. I had never lived until last week. I had my first diet Dr. Pepper of my whole life last week. He's her sheltered king. And I want you to know. this might be better than Diet Coke. Yeah, he's got a degree in soda. This, he has a PhD in soda, you fuck.
Starting point is 00:03:02 This soda, Josh, this medically created. Yeah, pharmaceutical. Dr. Pepper is unbelievable. And everybody said, you haven't lived until you've tried Dr. Pepper zero. It's much better than Diet Dr. Pepper. And all I have to say is, I'm having fun with Diet Dr. Pepper. Why do you have to be like that? Like maybe can't both be good?
Starting point is 00:03:26 But yeah, Dr. Pepper, he's amazing. You know, arguably the best I think diet soda is. Dr. Browns. Sure, fine. Black cherry. Especially for the Jewish. By the way, they're all doctors. Yeah, why is that?
Starting point is 00:03:45 I don't know. They couldn't be less doctors. Totally. You make soft drinks. Why are you doctor? Dr. Browns. Dr. Pepper? Have you heard Mitch Headberg's bit about like,
Starting point is 00:03:57 I like Mr. Pib because it tastes like Dr. Pepper and dude didn't even get his degree. I haven't heard that, but that's amazing. He also says one about like, Dr. Sholes makes cushions for your shoes, but you don't have to be a doctor to know that cushions in your shoes will feel good. I love an insert.
Starting point is 00:04:21 You wear a Dr. Sholl's insert? I don't, but when I have before, I've loved them. It's great to have cushion for your feet. I'm such a Jew, bro. I wear orthotics. Wow, I love that for you. Fabulous. And it gives me a half an inch.
Starting point is 00:04:35 So you're trying to cure your flat feet. You're not just like living with it. I'm living with it. I'm flat. There's no cure, though, right? Because I can't change my anatomy. Like, it is set in stone. I don't know, Josh.
Starting point is 00:04:47 That's not what my new physical therapist has told me. That's not, Josh. I'm changing my anatomy. anatomy. Really? I am. Oh, yeah. Okay. I left, I left Josh. I want you to know. I was standing up so straight that I literally, I was like, have I always been a hunchback? Do I walk hunched? Probably. And apparently I do. I was standing so fucking straight. And what this person did to my hips, my goodness, like I, it was only one session. I immediately booked another four. I love it. I love it. You're a PT guy. Big PT guy. Big PT guy.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Big Pee, Pee T Barnum. Yes. Circus guy. Big time circus. Yeah. T.C. BTC. I love, I love physical therapy.
Starting point is 00:05:33 I walk out of there. I feel I go to a physical therapy office. The office I go to is in an ice rink. Hear me out. Wow. So when I leave, I get that smell of ice and the mighty ducks. Love it. Love it.
Starting point is 00:05:51 It's so. I just feel. I feel like a new man. Does it make you bitter because you should have been in that movie? I was too young. We've discussed this, though. You should have been in that fucking movie. I should have been in every great kid's movie.
Starting point is 00:06:05 Young. I mean, I think the first one maybe was seven or six or seven. Perfect. You could have been in it. You didn't have to have a huge role. You could have been in it. Damn. Those movies mean a lot to me.
Starting point is 00:06:19 They're amazing. Imagine you as Charlie Conway. It was you. It was you, Josh. It was you. What now your physical therapy was it? Do you have a prescription for a doctor from a doctor? No. So I went to this amazing place called Mio. M.O. It's in the city and it is, again, I haven't been to other physical therapist offices, but you walk in and it's it's just amazing. You get matched with a professional and they give you an assessment and based on your range of motion and what you're trying to do. Again, I don't have an injury. So I'm sure if you went in there with an injury, it could be covered by insurance and you would be rehabbing something specific. I literally went in because our friend Hillary from the Soto method, I did a class with her and Claudia.
Starting point is 00:07:05 She looked at me. She's like, your arms don't go more back than this. You need to go to PT yesterday. So she embarrassed me into PT. And I love her for that. And I immediately went to PT to try to get my arms to go back. Because I don't know if you know this. The reason why I don't do, what is this called where you put the barbell behind your head?
Starting point is 00:07:22 A squat. Oh, well, you could do a squat without that, though, right? Like, is there not, is this not called something? You wouldn't do it from the back. You would do it from the front, a strict press, a military press. Okay, so the only time that you'd put the bar behind your head is if you were using it to do a squat. Or something called Good Mornings, but yeah, traditionally you're doing a back squat. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:07:42 If I was to try to put the bar behind my head, it would hit me in the head. Right. I can't get my arms to go back enough to put the bar back there. So that's what we're working on. range of motion. Getting my arms back, Josh, opening up my chest, opening up my hips.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Yeah, no prescription. The goal is to have me, give me proper alignment. I guess I could have gone to a chiropractor, but they are fake losers. Chiropractor community. Fuck you.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Okay? Oh, stop. I'm just kidding. I've had so many of them reach out to me. I know. That's why I did it. After my clip with viral. I'm just rage baiting you.
Starting point is 00:08:21 They're just. Many of good chiropractors, there's a guy I've gone to in the past name Dr. Greg in Studio City. Fabulous, Dr. Greg. Shout out RIP, Bob Sagg, dear friend. But I just don't like it when the small percentage of chiropractors represent themselves falsely as functional neurologists and wear a white coat and act like they know more than they do. But nothing wrong with the general chiropractic community. Yeah. Nothing wrong.
Starting point is 00:08:52 shout out. But yeah, so this, I only went once. I go again this week and I'll keep you posted. I would keep you posted. I'm, I guess it's a net positive no matter what. I get a little nervous about the fuckery of going without a prescription because I only know of it from like you go to your, you know, you get it from your GP and you go in, you tell them what's going on. You don't need to necessarily have, I mean, you could go to your internist. I guess it's an extra. annoying step. Yeah. And say, I have bad shoulder pain from my lack of mobility.
Starting point is 00:09:28 And they'd be like, great. Let me, you know, as long as you're not asking for norco. But like, I don't have pain, though, Josh. That's the thing. But you could just say you do it. How do you think I get my work is set? I could. I could.
Starting point is 00:09:43 I could. Because then, like, where I go, I'm, I'm being worked out by a lovely 35-year-old doctor of physical therapy, right? Like understood. And I just feel like they're, and the reason I, it's in an ice skating rink is because it's part of the King's facility, the LA Kings hockey team. Yes, yes. They just really feel like they know what's up, like when they're that educated. Yeah, I feel again, I went once.
Starting point is 00:10:11 I do plan on going back. I think that the same way that you have your, what are they called? Like we previously would only go to a doctor, but now if you need something, you'll go to a nurse practitioner, a physician assistant. Yeah, like one of these, they're not like ERs. What are they called? Urgent care. Urgent care, thank you.
Starting point is 00:10:31 That's the word that I was looking for. Urgent care. It kind of feels like that's what this is. This is the urgent care of PT. And all that I know is that I had a wonderful experience. I had a wonderful experience and I felt much better. And the things are very basic. Like they did stretches with me.
Starting point is 00:10:49 It was some assisted stretching. It was, I can't call it a massage because it hurts so fucking much. Like they would like dig in and move things and then all of a sudden I would have more range of motion. So yeah, I greatly enjoyed it.

Starting point is 00:14:03 This episode of the Good Guys podcast is brought to you by our friends at Sacks Underwear. I have a message for the guys out there, okay? Look, and ladies, if you're listening, you can also act on this. But guys, let's talk about the acronym B-S-T-L ball stuck to the. the leg. I'm sorry, mom, turn this off, but it happens. Your nuts get caught on your legs. You're sweating. You want to keep the boys secure. You don't want to feel that sweat anymore. That's where Sacks comes in. We are done with having our nuts sacks stick to our leg. I know, I know, mom, turn off the podcast. I know. But I'm telling you, this is a problem. It's a problem with our
Starting point is 00:14:38 underwear. And if you have a husband at home who's wearing any underwear other than Sacks underwear, then he probably has this problem. Because Sacks isn't. your normal pair of underwear like competitors, okay? A Calvin Klein, a Costco, a Haynes, okay? Because they don't care about your nuts the way that Sacks does. Okay, guys, come on, what are you doing? You got to get Sacks underwear because Sacks is the original pouch underwear changing the game since 2006 with its patented ballpark pouch technology.
Starting point is 00:15:09 It's the most comfortable underwear for men, period. And they have styles for every situation, from lounging to high intensity sport, featuring technology like cooling cotton, breathable fabric, and no ride-up legs. It's worn by 100,000 men and professional athletes alike, no more nut sex sticking to the leg. That would happen in your calvins. That wouldn't happen in your sacks because your sacks are keeping your sack up. Sacks underwear is designed with the ballpark pouch, a patented 3D hammock that keeps everything in place and presents unwanted skin-on-skin contact.
Starting point is 00:15:39 That means no chafing, no riding up, and no weird adjustments during the day. It's distraction-free comfort that actually lasts. The New York Times Wirecutter has rated Sacks underwear. It's top underwear pick two years in a row for a reason. And folks, unparalleled comfort, I'm telling you, they make an amazing gift because let's be honest, most guys don't buy new underwear until somebody makes them. I'm talking to you guys. Break the cycle.
Starting point is 00:16:03 Upgrade your drawers. Upgrade your day. Check out sacks.com. That's S-A-X-X.com. Check out sacks.com. S-A-X-X-com. Well, it's funny because I really. enjoy the Dr. Mike guy on YouTube.
Starting point is 00:16:20 There's two Dr. Mike's that we both love. There's Dr. Mike Isratel, who's my little fitness PhD genius, who I love, who's clearly on a boatload of steroids, and I'm here for it. He's cool. He's the big baldy that you've sent me before that I've listened to. Nice Ashkenazi Jew, who's absolutely ripped to the gills. Could you imagine him in... Do you think he's his head?
Starting point is 00:16:40 Yeah. Can you imagine him in Hitler alone in a room? You know? Isretel would fuck him up. He would destroy him. Like, you're such a badass if you shave your head just because you want to. You know, he has a beautiful, he probably could have a beautiful head of hair, Josh. He shaves it fucking intimidating and it's badass.
Starting point is 00:17:06 It's like a seal. You're not like a, like both like a regular seal and a Navy seal. I want to get back to the seals because my parents were in the Galapagos. my mom sent me 250 pictures of her in seals. Every day I got 10 pictures of her and a seal. Oh, great. We'll come back to it, though. We'll come back to it.
Starting point is 00:17:24 Okay. Is Retail and who's the other Mike? There's this guy, Dr. Mike, and he's on YouTube. And I really enjoy him in his clips are excellent. He was actually going to come on the pod. And then they were like, well, his assistant or someone was like, well, will you go on his podcast? And I was like, yeah, I would love to.
Starting point is 00:17:38 And he was like, yeah, like, can you talk about like being a child star in Hollywood and also your weight loss? I was like, oh, I don't want to talk about either of those things. And we never heard back from Dr. Mike. Can you come on and bear your soul? Yeah, I was like, can I move on? Please. Yes, yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Let the man move on. Let him move on. Let him move on. Okay. Let him move on. It's enough. But, you know, Dr. Mike was saying in this clip, he said, you know, people, you know, no one on this podcast, but have just started.
Starting point is 00:18:14 to assume or connect supplements with healthy and safe and pharmaceuticals with unhealthy and not safe, which of course both of these things have both sides of the coin. He's like, the only difference is that supplements is a trillion dollar industry, right? So it's as profit motivated as pharmaceuticals now. So there's no safety in that side of things. They're pushing profit as much as any other major company. And at the very least, he's like, if a supplement is bad, it has to really hurt someone, and then and only then will there be any oversight.
Starting point is 00:18:53 Otherwise, all you have to prove is it won't kill you. It doesn't have to prove that it's effective, and it certainly doesn't have to approve that it might not have super adverse side effects. Whereas he's like pharmaceuticals, there is a majorly negative side. He said, but there is oversight. There is an FDA. They are working to make them as safe as possible. What do you think?
Starting point is 00:19:14 That makes sense. I would say that as a responsible supplement user, I've heard, and I've seen this more and more, I wonder if somebody's after big turmeric, Josh, because I've seen a lot of stories recently of people, liver damage and all of this stuff. And it turns out, I read a story, this woman, I think Claudia sent it to me. She's like, hey, watch out. This woman took 10 times the recommended dose of turmeric. She was taking 20,000.
Starting point is 00:19:43 milligrams of turmeric, Josh. I take 500 milligrams of turmeric. The range is 500 to 2,000. Just taking 20,000. If you took 10 times the recommended dose of any pharmaceutical, you would die. Okay? Like liver damage, certainly.
Starting point is 00:20:01 But if you're taking, what did you say before? Well, let's say it's oxy. You didn't say that. But let's say it's oxy. You take 10 times the amount of oxy, you're going to have some problems. You got me in.
Starting point is 00:20:12 And you're not. some fun. And you're going to have some fun. You got me season four of Drake and Josh. Drake, where's the door hall? Clip it. Fuck your childhoods, kids. Yeah, you got to go on that guy, Mike's podcast.
Starting point is 00:20:33 You're ready to talk about it. I'm doing it here. He's not getting the clip. 15 million followers on YouTube. Our clips suck. Yeah, a thousand percent. We need big clips. Time clips.
Starting point is 00:20:43 Big clips. Big clips. Yeah, I, look, I love joking about it because I think it's funny. Yeah. But just so everybody knows and nobody takes what I am saying and does something differently, when I say I'm on Lionsman, I took Lyons Main, I took Lyons Main like twice, which is not even like the way that you should do it. But I find it fun and funny. And the Ben Software Longivity Institute of Technology is going to be a real thing one day, like ITT,
Starting point is 00:21:13 We're going to run local commercials. And, yeah, I think turmeric, especially now what I'm taking is turmeric activated black pepper and there's a couple other things in it. I feel much better than I used to feel. I definitely think that it reduces my inflammation, even if it's just a little. It's like a big Batman. I've always felt sluggish. And whether or not it's the turmeric, maybe it's a placebo, I feel really good. I feel really good.
Starting point is 00:21:39 I also credit an AG1. I think it's great. Or if you wanted to take a grubish. Terseps? I think it's a Mujaro. No, because I took, I, I've been on, I, I've been on Ozempic or Tersepetide without turmeric. And I do find that the turmeric does two things for me. The most importantly, it reduces inflammation in my sinuses.
Starting point is 00:22:05 I am like a chronic sinusitis guy. And since I started taking turmeric and black pepper, I, a thousand percent, have less sinus headaches. So whether it's reducing the inflammation in my knees, that's probably just being less fat. But I do think that it's had a direct effect on my nasal health, which has plagued me basically my whole life. Because what Dr. Dubrow said in the longevity aspect
Starting point is 00:22:31 of something like Tersepitide is that sugar causes inflammation. So this idea that you have something running through your system that's literally pulling sugar out of your diet, naturally will have a holistic. It's not just less inflammation because you're lighter, but less inflammation in your body because you aren't digesting the sugar that maybe you're still intaking some as we all do.
Starting point is 00:22:58 Yeah, but I also would say I'm eating, I think it's also the effects of a terzapitin nose, your preferences change. Like I don't want candy the way that I once wanted candy. Even if I'm hungry, I'm not running to candy. I'll run to like a piece of cake or some ice cream, but the candy of itself. Like I used to, I don't know, I could put down 10 bags of nerds ropes or the gummy clustered. I love those.
Starting point is 00:23:24 And I just don't want that anymore. There's also like certain cheeses weirdly, like a really cheesy pizza. I don't like it. I like less cheese on my pizza. Another preference, Josh. I don't know what it is. So I'm probably having just less sugar. I'm having less sugar.
Starting point is 00:23:40 Okay, tell me this. Let's play Sophie's choice here, right? Okay, you said it. I love that game. Where is she? Yes. You say it changes your taste, right?
Starting point is 00:23:52 So let's say, Manjaro had all the positive effects that it does in weight loss and health. But it made you super attracted to dudes, right? Oh. You don't have to act on it if you don't want, but you look at, you see Zach Efron and his brother,
Starting point is 00:24:09 and you get hot. You get juiced up, my boy. So you're telling me there's no difference between my life now and my life. I think Mujar is doing that to me now. I'm talking, like I'm talking, you're in the locker room of Equinox. You're telling me I want to stick my pecker somewhere. It doesn't normally want to get stuck.
Starting point is 00:24:29 Yes. Okay. Out. Attracted. You don't have to act on it. You're just attracted. No, no, no. I couldn't continue to do this podcast.
Starting point is 00:24:38 What? We're going to sit here in the law. whole time. I'm going to be thinking how I want to rail you in the f***. Turn this off, Mom! Turn it off! Can we get to Ava and the Seals? You've taken this too far. Ava and the Seals sounds like a band. They're opening for Oasis at the Rose Bowl.
Starting point is 00:24:56 It does. Ava in the Seals. Yeah, they took five flights and they went to the Galapagos. Was this like a bucket list thing? Something they've always wanted to do? I think it... My mom's very adventurous. She just like... wants to, and she's super fit, thank God, like wants to run up Mount Everest. And she has my dad who's like limping with his cane that she's like dragging, dragging up
Starting point is 00:25:20 Everest. But he went to the Galapagos. He was there. They went with a couple. And they had a wonderful time. This was like an organized trip. It's not like they didn't have to do anything. They like booked it.
Starting point is 00:25:32 There were like other people on the trip. Might have been a swingers trip. I don't know. And I can imagine. No, I can't imagine. But like, honestly, if they were swinging, which they're not, I don't think. I'm happy for them. I'm happy.
Starting point is 00:25:46 As long as they're happy. Swear to God, if that was actually happening, which I don't think that it is, I'm happy for them. It absolutely would not bother me. That said, that's probably because I know that it's not happening. Galapagos, the seals. She takes pictures. She's next to monkeys, Josh. She took a picture.
Starting point is 00:26:04 I'll send it to you. In front of a tortoise or a turtle. it is six feet long. It was bigger than her. And they just are there swimming. They said, and they're like hundreds of years old. The guy there, I don't know how he knows this. He said, by the way, Darwin's Turtle was here.
Starting point is 00:26:25 He just passed. How do the hell do you know that? It's a really cool story if it's true. But how do they know it's Darwin's Turtle? Regardless, turtles can live two, three hundred years and these things are huge
Starting point is 00:26:41 six feet Josh you could ride the turtle because they do nothing they're very lazy of course they live two or three hundred years can you imagine the rest can you imagine the resting heart rate of a turtle goals?
Starting point is 00:26:57 Yeah literally I kind of am a turtle like I want you know I talk too much what do you mean you're like a you're not a turtle you're the hair. The tortoise and the hair. You're the hair. I'm no hair. I'm a tortoise. I want to be, you know what, I just want to be in my shell. I don't need the world. I just want to live long and be left alone. It's kind of interesting. You're both a tortoise and a hair. Right. I know. Both.
Starting point is 00:27:24 You're very complex. So yeah, they, the turtles, the seals, the monkeys, they were just in the rainforest. They were there and crushed it and came back. And there's no better feeling. I can't remember the last time I had a feeling like this where you come back from a vacation. I guess I haven't been on an adventurous vacation like this in a very long time, if ever. And like your entire perspective has changed. Like they had the best time, the best. Isn't that amazing?
Starting point is 00:27:56 12 days after 12 days anywhere I could find something to complain about. They really had the best time. Ava and Bruce having the best time is the cutesy culmination of a lifetime. It makes me so happy. What I hate are people our age and younger who go on a trip like that and have their life change
Starting point is 00:28:14 because I want to be like, fucking save it. I can go to Bali too. Yeah. Oh, you're so different now. Like, take me back. Go back. We don't need you here.
Starting point is 00:28:28 No. Go sit behind a fucking laptop and do a spreadsheet. Shee. Shut up. Good drink. Go. What are you going to? You're going to live that way forever. Oh, I'm off the grid. You're on. There's a grid. Okay. Honestly, I feel like. Honestly, I'm so lucky that I married my wife because she wouldn't put up with any of this bullshit of going to Bali and being transformed. But if I married somebody who wanted that, Josh, that would be me. The way that I hear about a supplement and I try it, I'll try anything. The things that I would be trying. I don't want to try those things. If you found the new you in Costa Rica, that one sucks. Agreed. You know, like there's no you there.
Starting point is 00:29:16 No shade on Costa Rica. It looks fantastic, but it's like, I want, I want someone to be like, you know what, I went to Bakersfield and I found the new me. That guy I want to meet. A hundred percent. Just because you went to a beautiful beach, okay? Everybody feels great on a beach. You'll find yourself in Milwaukee.
Starting point is 00:29:35 Yes, totally. Totally. In Dayton. Olivia's a good set. What would we find in Dayton, Olivia? A stinky river. The Air Force Museum is up there, though, so they have a lot of, like, the old planes. I think the bicycle was invented somewhere around there.
Starting point is 00:29:55 In the airplane, the Wright brothers. Sure it was. Yeah. The Wright brothers invented the airplane in Dayton, but they flew it in Kitty Hawk. In North Carolina, they get the credit. We're crediting the, we're crediting the bicycle to Dayton, are we? It's a tremendous discovery. I'm not willing to give it to them.
Starting point is 00:30:15 No, absolutely not, okay? No, I dispute that. No, I'll give them the plane. I'll give them the plane. Yeah, some things can't, like, did you hear they invented the computer in Livingston? No, they didn't. Okay? No, no, I refuse it. I refuse it. That was a lie. It was invented in Germany.
Starting point is 00:30:39 There we go. I knew it. I knew it. Of course, the video wasn't created in Livingston, New Jersey. No, I was talking about the bicycle in Dayton. Oh, oh. Yeah, no, it was, the bicycle was probably invented in Sveedon. They love a bike. Wow. Right? No? I don't know. She said Dayton. Oh, Olivia's lying to us.
Starting point is 00:31:01 No, I think that she just heard. This is classic Ohio folklore. She was told at a young age, you know? I was told at a young age. I was told at a young age. I don't know if there's a bicycle museum or the vice for the Air Force Museum, but that was somewhere in my head. It's like quicksand, you know.
Starting point is 00:31:18 You're told at a young age, be wary. And then you grow up and you realize you don't have to be wary. What about stopping and dropping and rolling? I've never had to do that. No, never, never, ever, ever. Yeah, but like, I kind of want to put it to the test. Same. Stop drop and roll.
Starting point is 00:31:36 Do it. I want to see. It is. Do it now. This episode of the Good Guys podcast is brought to you by our friends at Byheart. Folks, Byheart is an infant nutrition company built from the ground up to deliver real innovation on behalf of babies and parents. Their mission is simple. Make the best formula in the world.
Starting point is 00:31:56 Folks, if I could tell myself something, if I could tell myself something, if I could tell myself something, for week one, okay, week one as a parent. If I could go back in time and really talk to that young man, even though it's only been four months, if I could talk to that young man, what I would say is don't be so worried about the amount of sleep that you're going to get. Historically, I've needed eight, nine, ten hours.
Starting point is 00:32:20 I'm like a grizzly bear. I want to go to sleep and I want to sleep forever. Not really forever because then I'd be dead, but you understand. And when I was getting ready to become a dad, I was so nervous because people honestly made me nervous. That's what are you nuts. Everybody needs to stop scaring parents. Okay, they'll figure it out.
Starting point is 00:32:36 We don't need your fear mongering. But everybody would say, prepare to never sleep again. Okay, Chuck. Okay, okay, Charles. I don't even know a Chuck. Okay, Charles. I don't even know a Charles. But okay, Dave, I think I know it, Dave.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Like, stop scaring me. What's the point? Don't scare new parents. Yeah, you're not going to sleep as much as you used to. But let me tell you something. And this is what I would tell myself. This is what I go back and tell my one week When my son was one week old, this is what I would tell myself.
Starting point is 00:33:00 I would tell him that you are going to be shocked at how well you can function on so little sleep. Sure, I was waking up once every two hours, once every 90 minutes. It's fine. It's literally, it's a moment in time, it will pass, but you have no idea how resilient your body is. It's almost like your body understands that you're getting less sleep and that you can't get more sleep and you're running on adrenaline. And it just works better. it's just efficient and then your son is going to give you one beautiful night full night sleeping through the night and all of a sudden you're going to be completely recharged
Starting point is 00:33:36 and then you're going to get tired from sleeping more when you were less tired when sleeping less it doesn't make any sense but don't be scared that's what i tell myself there's nothing to be afraid of and honestly fear you know you make it so big in your head all of a sudden it's such a daunting thing and honestly don't be scared if you haven't had a child don't be scared of the sleep thing. You'll figure it out. One day you'll sleep more. Honestly, you're probably sleeping two months, eight, nine, ten hours. I didn't need that. What are you nuts? I was losing daylight. No, I needed more hours in my day and my son has allowed me to do that. So that's exactly what I would tell myself. And folks, I mentioned that this episode was brought to you by Byheart. And

Starting point is 00:35:04 Additional terms and conditions apply. I realize the bicycle conflation that I made is that there is the American Bicycle Museum in Dayton, and it was a primary manufacturer for bicycles, and Huffy is based there. And where was the Bicycle, The bicycle invented. The bicycle was invented.
Starting point is 00:35:27 I hate to break it to you in Germany. Oh. But 1817. So it was invented by Jews. So the Nazis invented Fanta and bicycles. Yeah. And every incredible car. Honestly.
Starting point is 00:35:43 Beautiful cars. They only have one big bad thing on their record. Besides that, Germany rocks. You go boss. Mercedes-Benz. Burkow. No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. BMW. Auschwitz. That's fucked.
Starting point is 00:36:05 Should we listen to a speak pipe? I would love to. Okay. If you want to get advice, go to speakpipe.com slash good guys. Keep it brief. Brevity is key. Here's one from Top Secret. Good guys. I need your advice. So my best friend just got engaged about a month. ago, and I'm her maid of honor.
Starting point is 00:36:28 But here's the twist. Her fiance slept with someone else in a drunken hookup and confess to her like four days later. I have so many questions, but she's still moving forward with the wedding, and we're even going dress shopping soon. As her best friend, I'm stuck between being excited for her and screaming, what are you nuts? What do I do?
Starting point is 00:36:47 Just smile and support or say something. She knows, right? Did I miss something that she doesn't know? She doesn't know. She told the boyfriend that he had a week to tell her. Oh, oh, oh, oh, my God. Okay, I'm so sorry. Oh, I'm thinking of a different one.
Starting point is 00:37:03 Yeah, no, I think she said he told her four days after it happened. Yes, yes, yes, so he confessed to it. Got it. Okay, yeah, Nick, Nick, second, that. Okay, so I'm right. So he knows. Yes. She knows, yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:15 She knows. There's nothing more you can do. Yeah. She knows, like, butt out. This is not your problem anymore. If she didn't know, you must tell her before. she marries somebody that's a cheating skank. Guys can be skanks, by the way.
Starting point is 00:37:31 Yeah, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't think that this is on you anymore. I think that she probably feels sadly that she's put in far too much time with this person to retreat, which is just a very sad reality. I think of, like a lot of, a lot of people in general, there's such pressure to get married by a certain age, you end up just settling with somebody because you have this, like, for women, it's very real, a biological clock, but in general, like, you're waiting for your life to start. And it's like, I get that, but obviously don't do it with a cheating scoundrel.
Starting point is 00:38:09 Like, find somebody else. Find somebody that you don't love so much, but that isn't an asshole. Like, I'd rather you settle for somebody less terrible. What do you think? Um, yeah, a lot of people, uh, except cheating. It's, yeah, my wife wouldn't and neither would I. But yeah, it happens people just, they're desperate and sometimes it doesn't rock their bottom line. Why do you think people are with cheating?
Starting point is 00:38:41 Uh, if they're like, if the way that they approach, I understand if somebody's like, uh, not a thousand percent monogamous. maybe they like their relationship is flirty or swingy or whatever it is. But thinking about traditional monogamy, they went into this together as one unit with the goal of only having eyes for each other forever. Somebody cheats and it ends up not being a big deal. Why? I do have a thought here. I think that a lot of it depends on like the circumstance, just from like some situations
Starting point is 00:39:14 that my friends have had. It seems like at least in this instance, he was not in his. right mind per her message and also like admitted it fairly shortly after but also like you're committing to spend the rest of your life with somebody I don't I mean I that would just I can't even imagine being put in that position but that being said like I think for some people it's like if if the partner that cheated gives them the space to be able to process and really wants to do the work and try to earn their trust back I think sometimes people can come out from that stronger but it has to be a never again, like never, ever, ever, ever, ever again.
Starting point is 00:39:53 One of my girlfriends in particular had something happened, and that was kind of the line that she said. And he was, I will admit, like good about at least in the aftermath being honest and, you know, like giving her the space that she needed to be able to process it and like decide on her terms whether or not she wanted to stay in the relationship. But I can't imagine like trying to go through that when you have the pressure of like a massive event and committing your life to somebody. Like this was a boyfriend, girlfriend situation, but this is like just good luck. That's tough. That's so tough.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Yeah. I think committing to someone is hard and it's one of those things where if you truly stick to it, like all hard things in life, you're just better for it. I mean, it sounds overly simplistic. But I think that's the best thing that comes out of monogamy, like through trial and tribulation and not walking away in moments or not finding some outsourced or out you know we a lot of people run to be adrenalized right like I'm going to go eat something bad I'm going to have a smoke I'm going to hit my vape like it's just adrenaline it's just like I'm overwhelmed I want something
Starting point is 00:41:05 that I need my dopamine to fire right now so I can have a mini escape right and a lot of times when relationships are hard people will go find that escape through cheating because they're not willing to face the challenge of committing to someone and walking through those hard times. So I see that. And yeah, it's amazing. But I do find, like, I had a friend who they had been dating for years. And then it came out like that he was like a serial cheater. Like for a year and a half, he just cheat like four or five different girls. One of the girls reached out to his girlfriend who was like the best we love her and I remember my wife going like she's going to leave him I said no she's not I was like because she's put in so much time and I was like
Starting point is 00:41:54 and he's in every other part of his life is a good dude but like had this incredibly dark wild blind spot of like his 20s and I was like I bet you there because if it ends she loses. I bet you that's how she thinks of it. It's like, not only did he cheat, but then I also like lost him and all this time. And they're very married. They have very many kids and they are very, very much together and happier than ever. And they moved on from this blemish. That sounds like a pretty big blemish. It's hard. Yeah. No, but it's what I said in the beginning, which I completely agree with you, Josh. There is, it's a very sad reality where people feel that they've put in too much time.
Starting point is 00:42:40 And they don't want to lose. They feel like they've lost all that time. And like it just, I've, I have a similar, I know somebody who did something similar and they are incredibly happy with a ton of kids and this person's reformed. So maybe it's possible. I don't know why it's always to literally the best girl, though. It's the best girl. Why is it always to the best girl?
Starting point is 00:43:02 Because the best girl. The boys are idiot losers. I know, but it's so funny. It's like, why does the best girl put up with that shit? Because men are like this thing. And women, and women. I got to put this thing in some. And women love it.
Starting point is 00:43:23 And why do they love it? They love it. They love that dumb ass. If you stay with a cheater, ladies, you have full permission to microdose his coffee every morning with Dukeillax. Give him the shit. Do we have a Ducalax sponsorship They inquire, right? I love that you
Starting point is 00:43:40 I love that you added into you. It's Dokalax and Dutie. Duclex. Duttelex. Ducylax. Dukylax. By the way, I love Ducalyx, okay?
Starting point is 00:43:55 I love it. I love, love, love, love. Well, funny, because we actually, I think I got one confused. This is another sweet pipe in a similar vein. Hey, good guys. Okay. My friend has been dating.
Starting point is 00:44:06 her fiance for a long time, like three or four years. And, uh-oh, I found him on a dating app because we all live in the same town. I texted him a screenshot of it and I said, you have a week to tell my friend or else I'm going to tell her. Well, how do, what do I do? Like, I don't know if he told her. I'm not, I can't ask her if he told her or else she'll know that I know. But I wanted to give him a chance to come clean before I told her. What would you do?
Starting point is 00:44:38 First of foremost, I love your accent. I wish I had some of that twang. I love your accent. And look, again, this actually is a better example. You did what you needed to do. And then if he doesn't do it yet, so of course, you tell her. She's your girl.
Starting point is 00:44:58 Like, you got to tell her. Right? Yeah. You have to. Got to tell her. That sweet twang got to tell her. Also, he's a dumbass for doing that in a town. Like, being on a dating app in a town where everybody else, like, could see it.
Starting point is 00:45:16 Yeah. That's doofy. He wanted to get caught. I'm sure that she's going to tell her or, yeah, she's going to, she's going to tell her. She's either already aware or, like, he wanted to break up with her. You don't do something like that unless you're over it. It doesn't matter. You get confronted and you're out.
Starting point is 00:45:34 He could either be a dumbass or he could just be over it. Maybe he is just a dumbass. I doubt it though. It'll come back to him. Totally. He's got it coming. Should we get to us to Woody and Nuts? Yes.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Our Woody Nuts moment of the week are gripes with people, places, and things, whatever's sticking in your crawb, both big and small. Ben, what do you got? So we went to Lady Gaga at MSG on Saturday nights. she's not my witty or in general she's amazing but a performer like i you brilliant talent incredible my waddy and us is the concert 730 we're told she goes on 840 okay so we show up an hour and 10 minutes late for her to go on at 840 Josh at 840 she goes on she plays a very popular song of hers abracadabra it plays all of a sudden
Starting point is 00:46:33 All the music shots. Ten minute break. She goes back in, she comes back out. She sings abercadabra again. She goes back, she comes back in. She sings abercadabra again. Goes back out and comes in and sings abacadabra again. She was recording for the VMAs.
Starting point is 00:46:49 This took 45 minutes, okay? From her 8.40 time, which is already an hour and 10 minutes after showtime. She has no opener. Again, we're lucky that we knew she was going on at 840. Can you imagine the poor fucking people that got there. at 7.30. Waited for her to come on till 840. Listen to abercadabra four times. Only to have her then start her show at 9.30. I would kill myself. What do you nuts? Lady, Lady Gaga, what are you nuts? Like, these are your diehard fans. At a minimum, do abracadabra four times at 7.30. And I know that
Starting point is 00:47:23 you're waiting for every single person to be in the room so that the VMAs, it seems pumped up. AI, honey. AI. You can fill any room you want. What do you nuts? You can see in front of Nobody and bump in the crowd. Like, you don't need to waste people and especially their time, but they spent so much money to see you. I thought it was insane. What is Habra? Abra. Abra.
Starting point is 00:47:49 That's a good one, too. That's a good one, too. No, it's abracadabra. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, la. She's a vibe. Even though, like, this is so not viving. But this was not viving. Girl from the Lower East Side.
Starting point is 00:48:06 Stephanie. That's her name, right? Stephanie, she's Italian. I had no idea. Good Italian, bro. She went to your wife's alma mater. Yeah, she did. NYU.
