Starting point is 00:00:00 The following podcast is a dear media production. To choose 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. Benjamin, how the hell are you? I'm wonderful because I'm looking at three different shades of green.
Starting point is 00:00:37 I'm looking at your gorgeous green long sleeve. I'm looking at that green mountain water in your green ashriganda can. It's looking fantastic. Oh, and the green tree behind you. So much green. It really is. I'm wonderful. I'm feeling excellent.
Starting point is 00:00:51 I don't know if we updated these wonderful people, but I was sick as a dog. Sick as a dog. And now I'm back feeling fantastic. I have a golf trip this weekend, Josh. I can't think about anything else. To the Carolinas? To Tampa, Josh, to Tampa.
Starting point is 00:01:06 To northern Tampa. It's called Cabot Citrus Farms. Love it. And I am incredibly excited. This was a, been planned for 10 months. I said, Claudia, this is happening. So please just get in your head over the last 10 months. I'll be leaving you for the weekend.
Starting point is 00:01:22 I'm so sorry, but become comfortable with it. And I have to say, Josh, I can't believe it, but she really is not upset with me. She is very happy that I'm going. And that means that I have done well over the last 10 months and temporary expecting. Oh, my God. I can't speak really because my wife's literally sitting across from me. You have to. I was going to say, what's it like just being watched as you record?
Starting point is 00:01:47 The wonderful Paige O'Brien Pack is here with me, but she has healthy boundaries and doesn't need to be in front of the spotlight every second. So when I offered her to come on the show, she's like, no need. So shout out, Paige. Love you. Convincing. But yes, what, God, this would be such a good question, Paige. Well, we can remember this. I think we should do a double pregnant colleague.
Starting point is 00:02:09 By the way, throw on Paige's mic. She's there. Throw on her mic. Okay, so Paige's mic is live now. Why is it, I think that, as Ben mentioned with the wonderful Queen Claudia, my Queen Paige, that I am so, so blessed. to be with that whenever we have to go out of town for any reason whatsoever, we have to pay. You have to make us pay.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Yes, it's true. I mean, now it's just harder because we have kids at home and then it's just everything. There's just so much more to do. And I'm like, oh, you get to, like, he's like, I have to take a plane tonight and sleep on the plane. And I'm like, you get to sleep and not have to worry about waking up with a child. That sounds so nice. Okay, but pre-kids. I don't think I would make.
Starting point is 00:02:59 You used to travel a lot before kids, and I don't think. I don't really care. Yeah, but I... Is that true? I mean, I get to see you and got to go see a show when I was in New York. So it's, you know, obviously there's some fun things too, but... And I'm just like, who's better than me? You know, I'm not at some sports bar, eating wings and ogling girls tattas.
Starting point is 00:03:19 You know, screaming for the Patriots. I'm here working. Yeah, you're working. You're getting a nice continental breakfast to courtyard Marriott. You're doing the least. Spring Hill Sweet. You're doing the least. I also feel like, are you very, like, I feel like a big cheerleader, when Paige, and she doesn't do it as much as I do.
Starting point is 00:03:38 But when she does go out with her friends or has a trip, I am like, raw, raw cheerleaders. It's because. Number one. What do you need? You need dollar bills for the strip club? Let me, let me give it. Like, here, take a hundred dollar. and ones.
Starting point is 00:03:55 It's because you can count on one hand how many times. Honestly, I can count on one time. So you know what? So I bet you that's what it is, Josh, because over the last 10 months, I've been very sparing, very sparing. And I said this yearly golf trip very important to me, my game at an all-time high. I'm seeking revenge. Last year I lost in singles.
Starting point is 00:04:17 I need to win and I need to beat this one kid. His name is Blake. I need to beat him. This trip is important to me. And I think because I haven't been superfluous with my requests, I now am not getting any shit. Yes. No, like, listen. I wonder if I, I don't know if I've ever taken the equivalent to a golf trip.
Starting point is 00:04:38 Have I? Yeah, you like to go to Vegas with your brother. I do. For 12 hours. No, no, which is fine. But you like to go and enjoy the hotel and do, I don't know, dinners and stuff like that. You guys like to do that. My big brother who lives in Florida does come out for something called the Big Smoke,
Starting point is 00:04:57 which is the cigar convention in Las Vegas. Wow. Sick. And he goes with all his buddies. And so I will usually fly out. Yeah, usually once a year. Recently, it's been fly out, flyback same day. Wow.
Starting point is 00:05:11 But in the past, it'd be like 24 hours. And I'd go, we'd eat some meals, Schvitz, have a cigar or seven, and I'd lose just $100 at Blackjack. I feel terrible for the guy sitting next. you on the plane on a same-day cigar trip. That's no good. You probably smell terrible. Not good.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Not good. I love it. I actually hate, I was going to say I love a cigar. I hate cigars. I love the idea of them so much. But I'm just a bad cigar smoker. If I smoke a cigar, I have to get those little short stories, as they call them. And then I just feel like a wuss.
Starting point is 00:05:47 Like, I'm sitting next to my brother-in-law who's chieping down like a foot-long cigar. And I'm here with this short story that I can barely get through without vomiting. Like, it's just so emasculinating. Amasculating? Amasculating. It's terrible. The open secret about cigars or so I've heard is the longer, girtier ones are actually usually smoother.
Starting point is 00:06:13 Because if you think about, like, a longer rifle barrel, right? Like, it's... Or a penis. Maybe. But, like... The shorter ones are like you get, because it's closer to where it's ignited, the punch comes in harder. But if it's longer, it has a longer time to cool down and kind of smooth out. That's fascinating.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Okay. So I should be experimenting with longer cigars, but I've also heard I used to, you can't smoke one that's too dark. I have to smoke the lighter ones, the ones that are too dark or too heavy. So I need a long light one. A longer one or a darker one would be called a Maduro. in some respects, which is more of like an age, or like an an an an eho? Did I just channel hilarious Baldwin? We haven't spoken. We haven't spoken about your love and offici anato for cigars. I had no idea. I'm not really an aficionado. Like, I'll smoke one every month and a half,
Starting point is 00:07:12 either with my wonderful father-in-law and my brother-in-law will watch UFC fight and we'll smoke and, uh, or, or with my big brother. But otherwise, like, I can't ever put myself to really do it. But I like it. I like the vibes. I like a clubhouse. A thousand percent. Have you been to Club Macanudo in New York? Sure. Good times. I'm Madison Avenue. Fantastic. Yeah, I love that. I love a, like a nice cigar bar is sick. And I just love smoking inside. Fuck yes. I like smoking during a meal. Yeah, I'm in. I'm in. What's the perfect meal to smoke to? And Olivia Page, feel free to chime in. Something heavy, something heavy that like you need help getting through. Like, honestly, like,
Starting point is 00:07:53 Maybe like a really heavy Italian meal. I think that would be perfect for a nice smoke. Just help calm the tummy, allow you to eat more, punish you later, but in the moment you're enjoying. Yes. I think that I can't imagine anything worse than a cigarette and sushi. That just doesn't seem right. It's not right. It's not right.
Starting point is 00:08:11 And like a piece of bluefin, like it's like caught on the roof of your mouth or the top of your lip because of your dry mouth. Like I can just envision like a piece of Toro just hanging from the top lip. Not good. No. What about you? Yeah, or I think about where people, like, Asian countries do smoke a lot, but I think about like Middle Eastern food, right? You know, you're at the Shook, you're at the bizarre.
Starting point is 00:08:33 You know, you're having something with, you know, five, seven, eight, nine spices and one piece of chicken. A nice, a nice lamb dish, a hearty lamb dish. Yes. Cut through the gaminess. A nice, a Cuba day. And then you're just ripping a hookah. I recently was at a wedding, Josh, where they had hookah. Oh, what a treat.
Starting point is 00:08:57 That's hot. Hookah's it. For a long time now. Is hookah making a comeback? First of all, hookah is hot, hot, hot. And I just like the process, the hot coals. We used to get, we used to go for hookah every week. And we would get double apple mint.
Starting point is 00:09:16 Oh, so good. That goes back to Josh. Every Thursday, he used to go with his friends to hookah. single Thursday for the first five, six years of our relationship. We didn't have children. I know. I'm just saying like. We didn't even live together.
Starting point is 00:09:29 I know, but they would go. They would go. They would go. I just thought it was so interesting because I just never knew someone who would go to hookah as much as you and your friends. I love it. I love it. We need hookah.
Starting point is 00:09:42 We need more hookah, Josh. Well, you are omitting that I was, we would first nourish. Before we nourished our lungs, we would nourish. our spirit at a at a men's only 12-step meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous me and the bros from 8 to 930 in the evening we'd go there first
Starting point is 00:10:04 and then we would go to a little spot called the spot which is an outdoor hookah lounge which is the hottest hookah lounge in all of the San Fernando Valley and tell us about your food order because that is always that goes back to what you guys were saying but That was more, I feel like, nachos.
Starting point is 00:10:24 It was chicken. The chicken and cheese nachos were off the hook, but mostly we would do like a typical Persian Middle Eastern food plate, like a chicken sultani, a kubidate beef. And then with like the nice rice, the Shirazi salad, a charred tomato. And you obviously had your own tips for the hookah, right? They give you, yeah, they give you disposable tips. And yeah, it's all outdoors. and it's the effing coolest
Starting point is 00:10:53 and there are armed guards because you cannot trust the people who are smoking there. It's such a vibe and I'm thinking the reason that hookah is such a vibe is because it's really dangerous, you know?
Starting point is 00:11:05 You know like those boiling hot coals. You always feel like you're doing something a little wrong. Like it's so much, and it's delicious. Like bar everything that we just said, it's the original vape.
Starting point is 00:11:16 So much more tasty. Apple mint, it's delicious. So bad for you. Awful. Number one, really bad for you. Is it the worst? Is it the worst thing for you? Very bad. No filter. Not good. NG. Not good. Sorry. What were you saying, Paige? I was going to say, I threw a surprise birthday party for you there, but it wasn't there. It was at that other hookah spot. It was at Blue Hooka Lounge, a little bit further in Tosan. A little different.
Starting point is 00:11:39 27. Wow. Josh was so mad. He was like, I was like, what do you want to do for your birthday? I'd already planned a surprise party at the Huka Lounge and with all his friends. And he was like, nothing, nothing, nothing. And then the Dave is birthday. He's sulking. And he was like, I'm just really sad. I wish we would have done something for my birthday. And I was like, that sucks. Prize hookah birthday party. I never had a surprise party before. It was a special. It was a dream come true. Thank you. I love learning new things about you, Josh. I didn't know the love for hookah, the deep love for hookah. Or his birthday. And now I'm thinking that we need, we need a hookah episode. Me and you, in our next in person, we're going to have a hookah in the middle. Hell yes. I want that. I want a Schvitz episode. All the things we love doing.
Starting point is 00:12:23 This is our Patreon. This is our Patreon, Josh. This is the concept for Patreon. We do the podcast, but in weird places. Cold plunge. Yeah. A 60-minute cold plunge. We induce hypothermia. Yeah. We die. I'm down. Yes. I love it. Paige, you have spectacular ideas. But I do want to get a special pregnancy episode with our two pregnant princesses in April if we could. Yes, I would love to. We must. You know, I'm not going to argue with you anymore, Ben.
Starting point is 00:12:57 I think we can both agree that our Galaxy S-25 Ultras shoot an AK resolution. It just does. It just does. There's no, I would like you to stop arguing about it. Good. I hate when we argue. We really did argue the other week, and it was hard on me. Fine, I take it back.
Starting point is 00:13:13 I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Olivia didn't say a thing on the course. group chat. I was like, Olivia, pipe in here. Defend me. I think she's on bedside. And then you literally DM me. Stop bothering Olivia with it. Let's handle it here on this side. But back to the S25 Ultra that actually
Starting point is 00:13:33 has 8K resolution on video and an audio eraser, Josh. Yes, with Galaxy A.I. And let me tell you, I've been thinking about this. Okay. What is the perfect thing for us to use our beautiful, brand new S25 Ultrazon, Josh. What are we filming? Our subscription model where we record episodes in odd places. Correct.
Starting point is 00:13:59 Episode one, a steam room. Josh and I are in there. We're filming at 8K resolution, but you know, maybe the steam room, the ticker is ticking a little bit too much. Or maybe the steam, yes, there's a little bit too much steam and we want to get rid of that unwanted noise. Boop.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Lift it. problem with Galaxy AI. We can easily lift it using the audio eraser. It's fantastic. Or Josh, second episode on the train tracks. Me and you, in between subway cars, we do a quick, quick one-minute Patreon in the middle. But all of a sudden, you hear the train coming. You hear the train coming.
Starting point is 00:14:34 We don't want people to hear that. Yes, we start hopping trains like hobos. Love it. It's literally like having a mixing studio in your pocket. Listen, if you want this beautiful, look, I don't want to make you jealous, but I have one, okay?

Fresh, human-grade ingredients like high-quality protein and veggies, no fillers, no junk, just real food for dogs. Why shouldn't they have real food?

Starting point is 00:17:38 What a dream. A dream. But we were going to go. Schvitz and Colt Plunge and the Great Live Method and I had a feeling because I could just see my little mensch my little Tatula he was not feeling his best and so around five he said I'm out can't do it I said okay so I did this wonderful talk at Meta heard of it
Starting point is 00:17:56 and and then I you know what I treated myself to a show just just a nice one of one me out party of one a show me Denzel Washington Jake Gilline how good was Denzel I've been telling this story because I really can't stop thinking about the show. It was amazing. So Denzel and Jake Chillon Hall are doing Othello on Broadway. And it's amazing because you, the curtain comes up and Jake Chillon Halls on stage and he was excellent, like fabulous and he gets a big round of applause. But about 10 minutes in, Denzel walks on stage and people lose their minds. Like, I would. It's really
Starting point is 00:18:35 special. And the best part was this older woman, lovely, from Connecticut, of course, is not next to me and she goes, I've been waiting six months for this. I bought this ticket on American Express early. I'm so excited. I go, me too. I bought mine an hour ago on Stubhub. For half. Less, less, less. Third row, the best. Oh, my gosh. Wow. I thought about you because I know how you get Nick's tickets like 10 minutes before, right? Oh, you didn't even tell me. So you ended up getting a great deal. Beyond, it was $150 with like $30 and fees for a single ticket in the third row of the theater. What is there, tell me, is there a better feeling than getting a ticket last minute, great seat for a fraction of the price?
Starting point is 00:19:29 It is the greatest thrill. The best. I have such a sickness, Josh. I will do that for Nick Games. And then throughout the entire first quarter, I will still watch Stubhub, just to see if I'm putting a gotten a better deal. Oh, I do that all the time. I'm literally like sitting there.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Not watching the game at all. Just monitoring, did I get fucked on Stubhub or did I catch a great deal? Oh, it's so good. Oh, you only do that on Stubhub. I do that on Google Flights. I do that on a hotel. I check up to like an hour before. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:20:03 I didn't even think about that. I could make myself sick with flights. Yeah. Yeah. Normally flights only go up. Do you ever see flights go down? Flights go up, but hotels sometimes go down depending on how occupied they are. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:20:18 Yeah. All right. So Othello. Did you meet Denzel? No, I didn't. But I'm sitting there and she's so excited. And then it's the first act. And the first act is about 90 minutes before the intermission.
Starting point is 00:20:30 And so the intermission begins and the woman turns to me and goes, I'm not sure I love it. Yikes. Because it was obviously it's Othello. And it's Denzel. So they updated it to, like, more modern era. Of course, they don't mess with the writing at all. It's Shakespeare. But they modernized it the way we've seen, you know, a dozen times before.
Starting point is 00:20:52 She goes, I thought they were going to be in costume. I think she thought it was going to be like, to me or not to be. I was like, oh, honey, you picked the wrong production. She's like, I think I'm going to go. And I'm like, okay. She leaves halfway through. I actually respected that. Like if it ain't for her,
Starting point is 00:21:14 you don't got to suffer through an extra half, right? I'm trying to think what I've ever walked out of. I definitely walked out of whatever the last grown-ups was. Wow. A real scholar here. I think I walked out of grown-ups three. And there are definitely others. That's the,
Starting point is 00:21:34 that I remember watching and thinking, this is the worst movie I've ever seen. Josh walks out of everything. By the way, good. Way to claw your time back. Fuck them. They already got your money. They can't also get your time.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Look, I'm not speaking on the attorney here because I have a deep love and respect for Adam Sandler and everyone involved in those movies. Those movies are car wrecks. I mean, they're beyond bad, even the first one, right? The first one was fine.
Starting point is 00:22:02 The second and third or whatever were so horrendously awful. And you see them. If you're as big, I'm an enormous Adam Sandler. fan. I'll see every Adam Sandler movie. He comes out with something. I'll watch it. Same. But those movies are really bad. Like the, I think that when all of them come together, like, it just doesn't work. Schneider, Chris Rock, what's his name from Kevin James? Too much.
Starting point is 00:22:26 Too much. I'm trying to think who's to blame. I think it might be Kevin James. Really? Yeah. I really, I really only like him in King of Queens. Beyond that, I'm not a Paul Blark guy. Like, I think he's kind of, he was a sitcom. man. He wasn't made for the big screen. I'm a fan of the man. I'm a fan of Kevin James as a person. I've not watched too much of his work outside of... I've not watched too much of his work, but I like him as a dude.
Starting point is 00:22:54 But you've seen King of... Have you seen any King of Queens or no? We covered this last week? Not really. We spoke about Jerry Stiller, though. I guess you didn't see any of them. I love Jerry. But yeah, I'm not...
Starting point is 00:23:05 And obviously, like... Oh, yeah, that was a fun game last week. We're me guessing what you've seen when you've seen Nothing. Yes. Yes. Yes. Nothing. I told you. I led you. We did this game last week page where I was like, I'm not actually, and by that, I mean, I have seen an episode or two, but I don't actually like it. Like friends, Seinfeld, the office, King of Queens. Nothing. You don't watch. You watch very specific shows in television. Yeah. You don't, he doesn't watch.
Starting point is 00:23:35 Smart. Okay. I've never walked out of a movie in my life until Josh and I started dating. and then he always just looks over halfway and he's like, you're ready to go? And I'm like, oh, I'm kind of enjoying it. We've done that like 10 times probably, which is probably the amount of times I've been to a movie in our whole relationship. Ow! He's left every movie! He's left every movie.
Starting point is 00:23:57 I swear, you just give up. You're like, this isn't for me. And then let's just go home. Clearly. I love it. Olivia, you ever walked out of a film? I was just sitting back here trying to remember. and I think it was like some sort of like
Starting point is 00:24:14 Roman film. I don't know. It was like an action movie in like 2013. And I was like a 13 year old and I just like walked out to go like fuck around the little plaza with my friends. Like we were, I don't have nothing to do with the film itself. The most absurd is you were 13 in 2013. Whoa. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:35 I read something yesterday. Not read. Saw on a TikTok. Whenever I say I read, I saw it on a TikTok. I saw on a TikTok yesterday, Josh, that we are as far from 1990 as 1955 as 1955 was in 1990. Yeah, dude. That's really fucked up. We're old.
Starting point is 00:24:54 I mean, I'm definitely old. You're born in the 90s kid. So is my wife. I'm 80s. Yeah. But like 80s is cool, man. Like you're ill. No, I know.
Starting point is 00:25:04 Trust me. I know. Honestly, 90s and 80s are really cool. Olivia, no shade. 2000's not it. 99. 99. I snuck it. Oh, you're still sick. That's cool. Olivia was two on 9-11. 1999 might be the best because you still get to be a 90s kid, but like you're young and
Starting point is 00:25:24 youthful. Bingo. Not old and decrepit. Bound of you. This episode of the Good Guys podcast is brought to you by Tonal.

It is something I really, really try hard not to do is to anyone who's like a generation before me and especially with my kids of like back in my day type shit. It was better in my day type shit. I mean, literally people will say things like,
Starting point is 00:29:24 oh, that's valid or that's Sigma. And I want to end myself. I want to be like, if you talk like that again in front of me, I'm going to laugh in your face. But I'm like, were they thinking that when I was like, oh, word, that's dope. Like, yo, that's mad crazy. Or like, right? No, because those are cool.
Starting point is 00:29:41 It's, that's cool lingo. No. No, they weren't thinking that. The sequel to do a lingo. It's a cooler lingo. No, they were thinking that it's cool. Look, the times were cooler. It's just a fact.
Starting point is 00:29:58 Social media destroyed us. Like, things were, there was just. Less pressure. It was cooler. It was chiller. That's it. Now you have to work really, really hard to, like, carve out that safe space. But back then, everything was safe space. Because, like, lives weren't amplified like that. So, right. Yeah. It was cooler, Josh. It was cooler. You could also kind of grow in private. Whereas, like, now your journey throughout life as exhibited in your social media, every friend who follows you is like, oh, they're going through like an awkward, you know, stage. 100%. Yeah. Too much judgment. Access. As Max started,
Starting point is 00:30:39 a Mac said bro, bruh for a minute and we like put a stop to that immediately. Yeah, that was bad. I couldn't sit. I couldn't stand the bro. I would love him to be a bro kid. That would be sick.
Starting point is 00:30:51 I think it's like camp and he does, they always have, especially the camps in the summer where they have like the older kids teaching them that they like to do like baseball camp and it's like the high school kids. they learn a lot of words and a lot of slang from those kids, for sure. And the kids in his class now that he's in school that have older brothers, they love to throw around.
Starting point is 00:31:11 Bro. So what is Max's number one sport? What are we really pushing him towards these days? He's in T-ball and he's loving it. He really loves T-ball. He loves T-ball. Soccer wasn't for us. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:31:22 He probably has uncle's pigeon toes. It's very difficult to have sports like that. But baseball is lateral, right? I guess you have to run the bases. But like, I feel like you go very. very side to side when you're fielding. It's good on the arm. I like baseball for Max.
Starting point is 00:31:36 That's good. That's good. Also, great scholarship. So many players. It's not like you're fighting for like five spots on a basketball team. Nine. Nine. He also really likes golf.
Starting point is 00:31:47 He likes golf a lot. He's doing golf camp this summer. Love that. I'll play with them any time. Shai has no desire to do any sports whatsoever. Can't hold a club. Can't figure it out. But that's okay.
Starting point is 00:31:59 He has other time. He strikes me as more of, he strikes me as. more of an artist. For sure. He is. More of an artist. What if baby, Baruch Hashim,
Starting point is 00:32:06 Broh Hashem, baby suffer is into like extreme sports? I'm talking skateboarding. I'm talking base diving. Like, would that... My dream. My dream. That's all I ever wanted.
Starting point is 00:32:16 Yeah, I think we've spoken about this. All that I ever wanted was to be in the X games. Like my dream. My dream, I have to dig these pictures like out from somewhere,
Starting point is 00:32:25 but I had trick blades. And my mom would take me to the Chelsea Pier's half pipe and I would climb to the top of the half pipe. pipe and I get too scared and I'd come down. Same. All I wanted to do was fucking skateboard and trick skate was what they called it where you had like the, I had the skates with the little hole for the grinding.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Yeah. And of course I never, and I never did it. But like that's all I wanted. And I'm trying to remember his name, Danny something was like this BMX guy that was huge back in the day. I loved that. So yeah, if he wants to do it, power to him. Is it dangerous for sure?
Starting point is 00:32:59 But like, so cool. It's so cool. What's cooler than that? Like, to be able to rock an earring and it just be like part of your personality, like it's just you. Josh had double earrings. Yeah. Was it a part of your personality, John?
Starting point is 00:33:15 I was just looking for anything to distract from my size. It was just so a walking magic trick. Oh, look it over here. What's over here in my ear? I remember that I had rollerblades, but I was also too fat to grind. But I wanted to project that I knew what was up. So whatever we'd pass the skate shop, like at the mall or whatever, whoever I was with, I was like, oh, wait, one sec.
Starting point is 00:33:42 Like, got to see something. And so I would go in and I would ask them, I'd be like, do you have grind plates, which were the plates you put on over your bearings to protect your skate from all your grinding? And they would go, yeah, yeah, we do. And I'd be like, cool. And they'd be like, do you want them? And I'd be like, not right now.
Starting point is 00:34:06 I'm just checking inventory. I just want to make sure you have them. But I thought you weren't even able to rollerblade. Your moment it let you rollerblade when everyone was playing roller hockey and you were just on foot because she was worried to get her. We have covered this.
Starting point is 00:34:26 Yes, I was too fat to blade, but I did blading in New York and then because I was sort of like reasonably overweight and then around 14 in the craft service at Trache and Josh is when I put on an extra 50 on top of the already 50 and that's when she put a stop to it
Starting point is 00:34:44 because of compound fractures. It was probably wise. It was probably wise. Even though I have seen there's like this really, really big trick blater. Do the kids still call it trick blading? They should. Or do we just call it rollerblading?
Starting point is 00:34:57 Or skating? What do we call it? I don't know if kids rollerblade anymore. I rarely see kids rollerblading. Skateboards, scooters. The kids are still trick skating. They're still going to their half-hites with their skates. No?
Starting point is 00:35:09 I don't know. Some sick K-2s. Snowboarding, too, is another one. I bought a board. I could never do it. I couldn't get up. I would fall. I couldn't get up.
Starting point is 00:35:19 It's all core. Skating, like, if you fall when you're skiing, you can just take off one ski and stand up. With snowboarding, you need to physically get back. up and use your core, I could never do it. Did you ever have Heelies? I don't think so. I feel like Healy's, when did Heelies come out?
Starting point is 00:35:35 I did. You did? Yes. Wow, Olivia. They were amazing. I did not know you were that lit. Actually, one of my best friends in high school had a pair, and he would, like, hide the wheels in his pockets.
Starting point is 00:35:47 And then when the bell would bring, he'd like pop them in and then just roll through the hallways. They could never. Sick. It was awesome. Hell yes. I was a big razor scooter guy. Me too.
Starting point is 00:35:57 Big time. Love that. I even got the one they came out with a version that had actual wheels. They were these like big blue. Like you had to put air in the tires. Oh, they were razor. It's like an off road.
Starting point is 00:36:09 Yeah, they were sick. And I remember, I'm sure you remember the store sharper image. Of course. Sharper image had the razor. If you got a razor anywhere else other than sharper image, knockoff razor.
Starting point is 00:36:21 They had the razor. Yes. So cool. Sharp image. What I realized when I couldn't trick blade, like I went to the scooter. Brookstone. Brookstone.
Starting point is 00:36:31 Yes. Just gizmo gadget store. So good. I loved it. I loved it. Should we get to some stories? Yeah. Do we have anything big going on?
Starting point is 00:36:41 Is there anything like big gossipy and the pop culture? Anything you're talking about with your sisters and your group chat with Maddie, Paige? Anything we have? Oh, kind of out of the loop. Well, here's one. Empty Nestor spice up 25-year marriage by meeting new woman becoming a thruffle. Our kids love their new. bonus mom. I always call us
Starting point is 00:37:00 empty nesters. Sorry. Bianca and Philip Luna were about to become empty nesters when they decided to include a third person in their relationship. The Texas couple fell in love with Delane DM and became a closed triad or a thruple. We like to call it
Starting point is 00:37:16 the power of three. When we work together, we can knock out pretty much anything. What are they builders? Philip 52 and Blanca, 49 had been married 25 years during which they had a wonderful time being a family and raising their three children. But it was time to spice things up. We started trying to meet other couples, just trying
Starting point is 00:37:38 to date. For me, it was figuring out my sexuality. How much am I willing to explore with my husband there? And how open are we about having this conversation? They met Delane in 2017. She's very intriguing. Very gorgeous. Yeah. They're crushing it. Thruple. Close triad. Beach their own. Good for them. Good for them. Paige, could you do that? No, I can barely handle Josh. I barely handle like one person in my life. I think I'm good, but good for Delane and Blanca.
Starting point is 00:38:09 I'm just saying it sounds like you have another helping hand to problem solve. Like, you need to. Sometimes I watch sister wives, or is that what it is, sister wives? And I'm like, wow, they really do all have each other to like raise each other's kids, but they have a million kids. So you're like, I think they live on a nanny. I just need help. Yeah, but a nanny, you have to pay this person. You don't have to pay.
Starting point is 00:38:35 They're there. It's free labor. Oh, you're paying. That's true. They need, they need things. They need this. They need that. Oh, you're paying.
Starting point is 00:38:45 But speaking of Jesse from Mormon wives hit me up this morning. She's ready to come on in April for season two of Mormon Y. I've heard this before, but I'm down if she wants to come on. Okay. That's good, right? Yeah. That'll be fine. Fantastic. Fantastic. Yeah. Love. Well, also, there could be a dead passenger on your next flight. It's a lot more common than you think. Suppose you board a plane more than a couple times a year. Chances are good you've flown the friendly skies with a dead body for company. With the spooky scenario making headlines more than once already in 2025, most recently after a couple flying on cutter airways wound up sharing their row with a blanket-traped corpse for hours. Passengers can't help but wonder if they're next to find themselves uncomfortably close to, to an abnormally quiet seatmate.
Starting point is 00:39:29 Yeah. Yeah. I told this story, like, probably a couple months ago on the podcast. I had a friend who came back also from the Middle East, and the person next to him died and they tarped him. Solid. Like, this, it's crazy. Like, I don't, like, I don't even get it. But I guess you just got to keep flying.
Starting point is 00:39:47 They're already dead. Can I have their meal? Yeah. Are you eating your pudding? What are the, they, they ordered the pasta. and I really wanted to try it. It's okay. Can you bring that?
Starting point is 00:40:02 It's already heated up. Well, men fall in love almost twice as fast as women. New research reveals. Here's how quickly it happens. The findings reveal that the average man takes a little over four weeks to fall head over heels, while women move much more slowly at 1.92 months. It's almost a double. Makes sense to me, Josh.
Starting point is 00:40:23 We're blinded by looks. Blinded. Is that it? I think so. I think so. This episode of the Good Guys podcast is brought to you by booking.com. Booking dot yeah. Every time I use booking.com to find a place to stay in the U.S.,

We're, of course, going to want a beautiful patio or a terrace that overlooks the water. I need a kitchenette so I can wake up in the morning and make an omelet. Because why not? Why shouldn't I have a kitchenette? That would be nice, right?
Starting point is 00:41:26 We want a comfy couch. Maybe a pull-out couch in case a friend wants to come and stay. Never mind. We're not getting a pull-out couch because we don't want anybody staying with us when we're on vacation. We need a king-sized bed. Need I say more? A gorgeous beach vacation.

Starting point is 00:44:23 Speaking of Blinded by Looks, I've been watching or I watch Love is Blind. I'm positive that you didn't watch it, but I will just say that it was the worst show I've ever seen in my life. Is it bad? I've seen past seasons where it's been tolerable. Like this was just like a bad show.
Starting point is 00:44:38 And I'm here definitively to tell you, Josh, that love is most certainly not blind. It's not. Like, it is a portion of love certainly is blind. you fall in love at somebody's personality, their heart, whatever it may be. But if you find them ugly, there's no looking past that. There just isn't. You have to have some type of physical attraction.
Starting point is 00:44:59 It doesn't have to be the number one thing, but love is not blind. Let me ask you this. Is there a code amongst friends where you have your friend, let's say they're like a really like a strong five, right? They're not a piece. Sure. But they're just, they're shooting too high outside of their demo. Like their weight class as far as looks go. Do you ever tell them?
Starting point is 00:45:21 Do you ever go like, you know, Janine, you're a five? Like, stop it. You know, it's interesting? I have a friend who does that. But he always said that he liked a certain type of girl that just felt out of his leave, no question. But that's always what he was shooting for. And then recently he showed up to a function with somebody that he was dating that was
Starting point is 00:45:41 within his own zone. So I think that after years of rejection, he finally realized that. that he actually was a five and should be shooting fives. So, no, I haven't told anybody like, hey, bud, you're ugly. You should be looking for more ugly people to spend your time with. But I think, like, naturally, either they'll get really lucky and they'll find a 10 that is just lack of a better word, I don't know, brain dead. But normally, I think you course correct. What do you think?
Starting point is 00:46:12 You're saying life has a way of beating you up. I think so. Sure. Oh, there's nothing that makes me happier than when like really pretty people hit that age of like, and by that I mean, this mostly applies to women. But like when they hit that age of like early 30s and they still haven't found they're like, you know, Kevin Costner. They're like perfect. Ten in looks. Ten in the bank. Ten in the job. And then they settle. They start settling. That's so hot. I love a little. I love a settling moment. Me too. It's just like everybody wanted you for a decade. And you were too hot. And now. You are so not. Okay? I feel like it's more men that, that, like, that are like, I, like, want a hot, a girl that's hotter than they are. Because, like, I have so many friends.
Starting point is 00:46:59 I have one specific friend who is, like, I think she's a catch. She's so cute. She has great style, everything. And I've never met anyone in my life who, like, goes for more average-looking guys. And it never works out. And I'm like, what is happening? Because she is going, like, she and she, just. genuinely will be like, he has the best eyes.
Starting point is 00:47:19 I'm like, oh, okay, I didn't see that. But yeah, I guess so. Josh, do you know this girl, Josh? You know what I'm talking about. Okay, do you actually think that she's good-looking? Because I find that when girls say that a girl is a cat, she's not. She's very, she's extremely cute, good-looking girl, but she's a bit of an emotional. I think she, her emotions can get the best of her sometimes, but.
Starting point is 00:47:42 Ken, there's always something. It's like, my friend is perfect. I don't know why nobody wants to date her. It's like, because she's not perfect. No. Like that's like, there's something wrong. Yeah. Well, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:47:53 I just think that like I find that so interesting. She gives everyone a shot. But there's nothing worse. Some love is blind when they do the reveal. And it's like the guy walks out and you could just instantly tell on his face that he's like, oh shit. And the girl's like, oh my God. I'm so happy.
Starting point is 00:48:08 This is the best day of my life and like runs up to them. And the guys, you could just tell instantly not interested. Not feeling. Did you watch the season page? I didn't. But I've been. seeing everyone's Instagram stories and reviews about it. It was terrible.
Starting point is 00:48:22 Like usually at least there's like some good drama or like these people are interesting. Like this was just like the least interesting group of people. Yeah. Last year wasn't it the Megan, or was that two years ago, the Megan Fox girl. The Megan Fox thing was last year. Yeah, that was so entertaining. So entertaining.
Starting point is 00:48:39 Like just a bold faced lie. Yeah. But she was a good looking girl. By the way, that's neither here nor there. Doesn't look like Megan Fox. Like, I think I'm a lovely looking man. If I'm in a blind pod with you and I tell you I look like Brad Pitt, you're going to be disappointed. But that's a stretch.
Starting point is 00:48:58 Like, you're not a waifie, Gentile supermodel. But if you were like, let me think of a stretch. Yeah. Who's your top? Vince Vaughn. You're better looking than Vince Vaughn. But let's say that. No, let's go with your, like, if you said John Mayer, I'd be like, that's a stretch, but you're in the ballpark.
Starting point is 00:49:14 Right. I appreciate you. If I said John Mayer and I walked out, somebody would be disappointed. And for you, who is your doppler? Lennel. No,
Starting point is 00:49:29 who's your actual? Like, Granny, Vinnie, Vinnie Chase, but that's like me of my best. Yeah. But like, if you had said that and then you walked out now,
Starting point is 00:49:37 I'd be disappointed. Like, Adrian. Gere. I mean, God, I get it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:44 Probably. I hear you. Should we do a speak pipe? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Here, we'll get to a speakpipe. If you want to get advice, leave us a message. Go to speakpipe.com slash good guys. Keep it brief.
Starting point is 00:49:57 Brevity is key. Let's hear from Ashley Joe. I am a gigantic moron, and I need some advice on a birthday gift for my boyfriend. He's really into cooking, very bougie, but also he's in medical school. I'm in nursing school. We have zero money. So something on a budget, but it is actually nice. Looking at you, Ben.
Starting point is 00:50:21 Wow. Okay. We're bawling on a budget. What can we get you? Ninja creamy. It's too expensive, Josh. $199. They're broke, she said.
Starting point is 00:50:29 They're broke. Payment plan? What if you do a really specific ingredient that he can use to cook that he's never cooked with? That's not crazy expensive, but too expensive for an average meal. Saffron. Yeah. I've heard saffron is wonderful for the body, Josh.
Starting point is 00:50:47 That's a supplement that I've heard that we need. Jesus rice. You can make Jesus rice with it. Saffron. A kitchen appliance that's cheap, but is really good. It doesn't exist. Honestly, like, I can't think of an appliance. I do have a favorite new sauce.
Starting point is 00:51:02 I don't know if you guys are overweight, but if you are, it's a nice diet sauce. It's a company called Melendez. And they make Thai sweet chili that is 10 calories for one tablespoon that is out of this world. Melinda's Thai sweet chili. There's something weird when it's like when it's like Frank Cephiopian
Starting point is 00:51:21 marinade. Totally. Melinda's Thai sweet chili. Franks sweet Ethiopian marinade. That's funny. What about like, couldn't you get someone a great, this would be probably 100 of a chef's knife?
Starting point is 00:51:40 No, too expensive. Waffle making. They're cheapest shit on Amazon. They're amazing. And you can use your waffle maker for so many things. Josh, not only waffles, but if you wanted to make crispy rice, you could put rice in the waffle maker and make it nice and crispy and put a little spicy tuna on top. Get a waffle maker.
Starting point is 00:51:56 I love that. Or a pinini press or a crepe maker pot. What about an immersion blender, an immersion mixer? That's my favorite appliance. Oh, that's good. That's good for making good soups. But they're too broke to own pots page. No.
Starting point is 00:52:10 I didn't hear that part. She just said me don't have money. They're a doctor and a nurse. They specifically, she specifically said we're aspiring doctor and nurse and we are broke. Okay. Well, you can find one on Amazon, I'm sure. That's not crazy. Dressings, soups, anything?
Starting point is 00:52:29 Blender. Me too. Let's hear one from Alyssa. Hey, we're on here. You on your babies. So I recently had a baby. and my husband and I are going on our first trip without the baby. So my mom is going to be watching Bebe at home while we meet our in-laws in Vegas for a birthday celebration for someone. My in-laws
Starting point is 00:52:55 tend to book connecting rooms at hotels for us. Now, very appreciative that they, you know, booked the room. However, Woody and nuts, this is our first trip after a baby. I don't want a open door in between me and my in-laws. Is this not absurd behavior? My husband doesn't agree. She's trying to bang. Yeah, here's the thing. It's kind of, it's annoying for sure.
Starting point is 00:53:19 They are paying, though. They're obviously paying, right? I think so. I think it is weird to need adjoining rooms. Like, let them be. It's nuts. I agree. It's nuts.
Starting point is 00:53:28 Leave them alone. I think so too. You see them the whole day, the whole trip. You don't have to be, you don't have to, like, hear your son canoodling. Too much. Yeah. I'm, yeah, no need. No need.
Starting point is 00:53:40 We're out. We're out on the adjoining room. I'm out on the adjoining room. I can't even, the only time that you would need in adjoining room is when your kids are young. Like that's nice, right? Like you have, the parents have a room with their bed and then it adjoins with the kids that have two twins. Like, that's the only time. You need it for a family. Sure.
Starting point is 00:53:59 But they've grown past that stage. Agreed. Next one from Anonymous. So when I get out of the car to walk into the building at work, I don't put my coat on. It's the winter. I'm in New Jersey. It's cold. I don't put on my coat because, you know what? I'm sweating my ass off in the car. I've got the heat on 1,000. I'm sweating. I've already had to get myself ready and I'm all hot. And I just like, I don't need a jacket, right? I had a half hour commute. I'm not wearing a coat for a half hour in the car. So I have the coat in the car. God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, are you going to get sick, going to get pneumonia. What the heck do I do? Every day I'm like, I don't need a jacket. I'm sweating and the cold air feels good. Like, what do you do with somebody like that? Every day. Now I have a
Starting point is 00:54:50 game with myself and trying to beat her to the office before me so that she doesn't watch me walk in. Like, because it's making me crazy. It's every morning. Any advice is appreciated. I love this woman. Me too. I love her. This happens to me every single time I leave my building. Like I sometimes wear shorts in the winter because like once like 300 pounds always 300 pounds like you just like do things like that like you wear basketball shorts with a winter coat and I'll always get that like oh you're going to get sick it's like mind your business that's it tell this person it's enough like I'm not going to get sick I drive to work every day I'm outside for 30 seconds I don't need a coat I would just be upfront and honest and say thanks for your opinion but I don't need a coat Josh I think you set
Starting point is 00:55:37 the woman up and you get there early, you do a background that she wouldn't know you're in your office and you bring a little Pajamina, some kind of shawl, some kind of blanket, wrap it around yourself and you FaceTime her, right? The moment you're supposed to be walking in, you go, you were right. I'm dying. I'm at home. I've got, you know, whatever, I've got scarlet fever. And you just go, you were right. I'm so sick. I'm so sick. I'm dying and I should have worn my coat all those times you mentioned it and she goes oh my god I'm so sorry I know I tried to tell you you're right you're right and then you storm out of your office and go what are you nuts I'm fine stop it fine stop it yes yes I love a setup an elaborate prank joke
Starting point is 00:56:25 and then it's over that's what she needs it's over yes end it yourself checkmate this woman end her you get it a lot with kids people being like put a sweater on that baby I'm like, you don't think I tried to put a sweatshirt on my kids. Like, my kids refuse to wear max only wear shorts and t-shirts. He will not, like, getting a sweatshirt on him is really difficult. So I see people now on social media being like, I have to walk around, like, waving the sweatshirt, being like, I tried. He won't put it on. Like, this isn't on me.
Starting point is 00:56:59 But we were in Canada. We got off the plane. I remember that guy stopped us and was like, I have to stop you before you go outside. Those kids are going to freeze. you need to put a bigger jacket on them. And I was like, sir, respectfully. Yeah. We're walking out the door into a car.
Starting point is 00:57:13 They won't put them on. Like, what do you want me to do? Totally. People are too nosy. Like, people need to shut the fuck up. Like, it's enough. Like, these aren't your kids. What if we, maybe we want to expose our kids to a little bit more cold, right?
Starting point is 00:57:27 Yeah, hermetic stressor. Yeah, so they can deal with cold. Like, I don't know. I think we blow this whole cold thing out of proportion. Be cold for a minute. learn to deal with it. And then forever, like,
Starting point is 00:57:39 isn't that a thing, Josh? Like, think about a cold plunge. If you get cold exposure early, like maybe you can deal with the cold longer or you just get the flu and die. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:57:48 Like, if they get cold enough, they'll put a sweatshirt on. You know, let them feel it. Let them go outside and be like, oh, yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 00:57:53 It is freezing out here. It's snowing. I'll put a sweatshirt on. And even though, like, like today, right, like we're freezing in L.A.
Starting point is 00:58:02 In actuality, it's 55. It's chilly, but it's 55. So yeah, if you don't have a jacket on, like it's not the end of the world. And I look this up because I suspected, and it is true. No, cold weather alone does not make you sick.
Starting point is 00:58:17 However, cold weather can create conditions and make it easier for viruses and other pathogens to spread and cause illness. That's right, Mom. I'm not putting a hat on. I'm not going to get sick. Correct. Correct. I know.
Starting point is 00:58:31 Correct. Josh, what was that when we were, when we were by the head? the beach when I came to your house, like probably a year ago at this point. And it was like a little bit cold and there was that girl yelling at her mom about her coat. Do you remember that? Yeah. Yeah. What did she say? I don't even remember. It was something about wearing like a full down. I mean, you know, where we live by the beach. So it drops below 60 and people are like, oh, thank God, let me get out my Canadian goose. I'm like, let me get my Montclair. Like, are you well? I know. They just want a cute
Starting point is 00:59:03 layering moment. I'm like, hunt. Or like, it'll rain for 11 minutes and I'll be like, oh, word, the hunter rain boots are coming out. Like, yeah. Yeah. It's too much. I'm thinking about the time. I once, it was raining and I put on a down jacket and I had to go to Michaels with my sister. I was pregnant with Max, probably nine months pregnant. And I'm inside and I was drinking a coffee. So I didn't know they had like the heater on. I have my puffy jacket in the coffee in the heater and I'm pregnant. So I'm like, looking at my sister, I'm like, oh my God, it's really hot in here. And we run into this guy that we know. And he's like trying to talk to me. And I'm like sweating profusely. And I look, I'm like, I'm about to pass out. I'm so sorry. And I had to run out of the store because I was so
Starting point is 00:59:42 embarrassed. And to this day, I still like, apologize to him every time I see him for almost passing out because I thought like, oh, I'm going to be cozy. And I almost fainted. I was boiling. Too good. Too good. Should we get to our what are you nuts? Yes. Our what are you nuts moment of the week are our gripes with people, places and things, both big and small, whatever, sticking in your craw, then take it away. I have a good one. I was wrestling between which one to do, but because Paige is here, she can definitely relate to this. As, I mean, in New York, we have all of these wonderful parks anyways. We have all these wonderful parks, but being an expecting father, B.H., I'm like taking a deeper look at the parks, like, which parks are
Starting point is 01:00:21 nice, where would I like to take him? And I can't stop thinking, Josh, about the fact that all of these slides are metal. And remembering when I was a kid, going down that metal slide in 95 degrees and literally burning the bottoms of my thighs, like, what are you nuts that these slides, these New York I don't know if it's just a New York thing, but these New York slides are just made of metal and get boiling hot. All the monkey bars get boiling hot. Like, what are you nuts? These are children. It's more common in New York. It's insane. They literally take steel pipes. They take steel pipes. and they use them to make the slides. I saw a kid get absolutely wrecked the other day
Starting point is 01:01:02 on a concrete slide at the park. Max is going down it and he was fine. Shy went to the top and was like, oh, no, I don't want to do this. And he came back down. And I saw this kid and the mom and they were holding hands over it. And I'm like, this is a really steep slide
Starting point is 01:01:17 and it's made out of concrete. The girl, like, started tumbling and the mom wouldn't let go of her arm and they're rolling down the mom's arms. It was so crazy. I've never seen anything like it. But we have concrete slides here. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:01:30 That is even more of a what are you nuts. Yeah. Like what is this? Concrete slides? You can't at least the metal slide you can slide down. At least it's fast and fun. Concrete is slow. No, it's like,
Starting point is 01:01:43 and painful. It's like a smooth over like almost like a limestone. Like it's... But the way it's carp. It's not like gas fall. Are sharp. The corners on that thing are sharp. Yeah.
