Starting point is 00:00:00 Your podcast came out. Have you rated mine? Yeah, five stars on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. And every time an episode comes out, I don't necessarily listen to it because I hear your voice all the time, but I do like scroll through to the end. Because you're like, if I listen to Jake's voice right now at work, I'm going to get horny and I can't do that at work right now. Yeah, that's exactly what happens.
Starting point is 00:00:17 So you're like, I got to save that for later. No, I just start to fall asleep in my chair thanks for talking over my clap um i can't read you can redo it no it's okay and i won't talk too late now uh welcome to the i told you i have a girlfriend podcast um i'm jake and i'm a grass daddy and today i'm joined by my lovely girlfriend lena thank you for um sitting in for cam who's currently undergoing uh invasive heart surgery uh we all hope he pulls through but uh chances are he won't um i'm just kidding uh we have another guest standing in for us this week um you know they can't they can't all be first round picks guys what the fuck but we do our best to get you an episode every week and uh thank you for being here how was your day i know you wanted to decompress up there but i said let's record you can decompress on the pod. It was fine. It was just lawn.
Starting point is 00:01:25 It was lawn? It was lawn. You're making fun of my... I was just repeating what you said. I just wanted to make sure I heard you. Well, I am on the Grass Days podcast, so lawn works. We can talk about lawns. No, I don't want to talk about grass. Neither do I.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Hence why I never do. It was fine. Okay. I'm such a riveting I never do. It was fine. Okay. I'm such a riveting guest, aren't I? Yeah. I thought maybe you'd have more offer than it was good. That's like... There was no one in the office today.
Starting point is 00:01:54 I basically sat and watched YouTube while I did my job all day. Did you work on your podcast some more? Yeah. What, you think your boss listens to this? No, but just in case. I can't even get my parents to listen to this you think your boss is gonna listen to this no you know for something like this it's kind of just like a personal art project i would say yeah you would think your parents would be like i'm your number one fan yeah neither of my parents listen to this
Starting point is 00:02:25 i feel like that's kind of common for podcasters though is it though i guess it depends on what does does your podcast topic align with their interests there are there is no topic no it could be anything on any given episode well yeah but you also tell them a lot of the stories that you tell on here. Sometimes. But maybe that's just me secretly hoping on a whim that they'll be like, maybe we should go support our son. Yeah. But then they're like, nah. I hope they've at least raided the pod, you know?
Starting point is 00:03:01 No. But to be fair, they probably don't even know how to pull it out. No, exactly. Even though I showed my mom how. Rudy, probably don't even know how to pull it out no even though i showed my mom how rudy i i don't think rudy i think i showed my dad too i was like here you go let me um there's a cat in the box there's a cat in the box we are also joined by our children um as a good um host i did my due diligence and i listened to our last episode we recorded. Oh yeah. Today. What episode was that? I think it was episode it was like episode 20 something. Oh okay.
Starting point is 00:03:35 I'm not sure exactly what number it was. It was quite a while ago. This will be episode 45. Damn. Cult 45. Cult 45. Easy now we don't want to get copyrighted um but i went back and listened you know i studied the game film mostly because i was a little bit scared that i would just be like repeating everything i said before yeah like i was scared we as if we don't have a numerous amount of things to talk about but i was like paranoid that i would just like accidentally say the same repeat the entire podcast i don't know why i would should we talk about candy bars again i was thinking about that that so we did talk about that we also um talked about how you were a racist alcoholic and had a low iq score you remember that no how the fuck of course you don't because you have a low x because i'm an alcoholic um we talked about how you were racist towards denzel washington i'm just kidding
Starting point is 00:04:31 oh because we went and saw equalizer three and then i saw an african-american man see we're having the same conversations no i'm just kidding but um yeah we talked about that um you drank like 17 mango carts and i don't think I even got to have one. I think I drank two. I think I drank like five. You want to hear something funny? Yeah. Towards the end of that episode, dude, mango carts make me feel, craft beers in general
Starting point is 00:04:58 make me feel so full. Yeah. Towards the end of that episode, I felt like I was going to throw up. Did you say that in the episode no oh i didn't mention you just remembered it from listening yeah well i listened to it so i or i i just that's just something i remembered oh towards the end i felt so full yeah because i think i had like four or five i think it's part of the reason i like them because you can have like two and be like like i don't want anymore more don't want any more well and also they're a lot of times they're
Starting point is 00:05:30 higher alcohol content than just your water beers that you drink you know what i mean the most domestics they're high i don't know i don't know what percent they are usually they're higher usually lots of craft beers are higher than just. Can you take me higher? Can you? This probably isn't going to be that interesting. But I was. One of the videos I was watching at work today. Was a Cody Coe video.
Starting point is 00:05:55 And. Essentially he was watching this dating show. And this person. Was asking. Can you. Is that. Is it picking it up? I don't know. Maybe a little bit, faintly. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:06:13 But one of our cats is trying to suffocate himself in a plastic bag. That and smell like three-day-old beer. More like three-month-old beer. I was giving you some credit. Anywho. So, one of the people on the dating show asked, the person they're on the date with, what's your guilty pleasure song? And Cody. Hire by Creed?
Starting point is 00:06:33 And Cody answered basically anything by Creed. Hell yeah. Creed, Nickelback. That's not even a guilty pleasure for me. That's just a pleasure for me. So you know the Lips of an Angel song? Is that by Creed? We might have to kick them out that's skinny well maybe i'll just take the plastic bag and put it in the other room
Starting point is 00:06:51 they're done for now hold on i need to know if lips of an angel you know that's on the is that what was i singing it right yes i fucks with that song i don't think that's uh no it's hinder but he did sing it is it lips of an angel or wings of an angel no lips of an angel lips of an angel huh um speaking of drinking hey is that where you were gonna of course it was we've got hive mind we've been living together for like three years now we are on the same page we're dialed in we're locked in you know what they say i don't great minds think alike do you like looking at me with this thing right in front of my eyeballs i don't mind it okay i'm so like just only paying attention to the words that come out of my mouth that i'm just staring right through you i'm just kidding that was the other thing I talked about a lot on the last episode too
Starting point is 00:07:47 was how I feel like I'm really selfish and how I was talking about how like when Cam and I are talking, I'm always waiting for my turn to talk. I think that's ADHD though, not. Well, I don't know. It's something probably not good that I have. So you know about this right the magic fridge from where is it from like tijuana first of all it's called the magic mini fridge magic mini fridge
Starting point is 00:08:13 sorry does this look like a full-size fridge to you no maybe to you it does look like a pretty big fridge because you're kind of a mini person i was really mean to you in the last episode too i was roasting you a lot you were kind of about what like you have anything i could get my hands like you have already this episode yeah it's just so easy it's just so easy it's a good thing you're not like that all the time no it's just it's just when the camera's on that you turn it's just for the sake of content it's just for the sake of content. Oh, I know. Anyways, so yeah, magic mini fridge. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:52 Magic mini fridge. Yes. Let's crack this thing open. You want me to open it? Yeah, I don't know. I always knock on it out of solidarity. What do we got? I have a high noon. How do you know that's for you?
Starting point is 00:09:07 Because I ain't drinking a fucking Coors. Well, what else is in there? I can't see. Two other Coors. Three Coors lights and a high noon. Coors. Coors. Like I said, the magic mini fridge is tapped into the ether.
Starting point is 00:09:21 To its guests. It's tapped into the ether. Like, I think it sends out like radio signals and picks up on our brain brainwave patterns yeah what's wrong is that a little warm it's almost like you shouldn't have put that one in there i mean and i don't want a cider i wanted a high noon well the magic mini fridge apparently it the magic mini fridge is hazing you because it's only your second time on the episode so it's it's giving you a warm beverage to drink i don't
Starting point is 00:09:52 because it wants you to suffer a little bit you know it's kind of like you have to pay a pay a toll if you want to sit in front of the millions yeah was it even on here last time I was on here? No. I didn't think so. We had to actually provide our own beverages. Oh my god. Can you believe that? Okay, we're still rolling.
Starting point is 00:10:17 You like this new bougie setup we got? I got the mirror back there. It's kind of genius. I got the mirror back there so I can make sure the camera's still recording. Because the last episode we did not have a video element. Because we recorded. But it like fucked up, remember? I was using my phone or your phone. I can't remember.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Oh, when we recorded. When we recorded last time. It was my phone and it fucked up. It was an audio only episode. So now that we have you actually on video we have proof that i do in fact have a girlfriend i'm not just cam with a voice changer can you imagine i was i was gonna say like an ai generated female voice but that's honestly funnier that did deserve more laughter i'm ashamed that you guys didn't laugh harder at that do you want to know something yeah i think i've become funnier the more we watch comedians funny how that works right yeah it's like studying almost kind of like my brain works
Starting point is 00:11:17 a little faster you're becoming wittier yeah i'm making comedic Yeah. I'd like to think I was. Making comedic remarks. Yeah. I'd like to think I was decently witty before, but I don't know. Just feel like my brain's more geared that way. Okay, well, I'll let that out. I got one in two. See? Yeah. Yeah. It's like I find myself doing this when I watch any sort of YouTuber or
Starting point is 00:11:47 if I spend any amount of time in a long gated amount of time listening to someone on social media like consuming their content or even hanging out with someone I start picking up on their like I remember Ben fan of the pod he's got a very specific laugh he's got a couple different laughs which ben you know too many bands smelling oh okay yeah yeah um he's got this kind of high pitch kind of laugh um i feel like he's kind of
Starting point is 00:12:22 dropped a little bit but it was really prevalent in high school. Yeah. And when I, after a while of hanging out with him, I started picking it up where I would start to laugh like that a little bit. And it's like I wasn't trying to copy him. It was just that I picked it up from just hanging around him so much and hearing it so much. And likewise with people on social media, they have their own certain kind of manner dialect yeah you know and mannerisms yeah and i just sort of pick up on it and i start kind of inadvertently copying it because you hear it so much and then when you're in a conversation it's like in the back your head like if someone is creating a punchline for you.
Starting point is 00:13:07 It's like right there. Yeah. If that makes sense. Yeah. So. Yeah. By. And.
Starting point is 00:13:15 And like listening to comedy podcasts. Or. Listening to comedy podcasts. Or watching comedy videos on YouTube. Which we've been doing a lot recently. Yeah. You start. You start picking up on. Comedy videos on YouTube which we've been doing a lot recently yeah you start you start picking up on comedic timing and just yeah it's just being funny and also tying things back call backs yeah
Starting point is 00:13:38 using comedic terms which I am going to put put in motion this saturday as guests of the pod in past episode trace johnny johnson is getting married marriage so he's getting married on saturday i'm his best man because i mean of course um best man for the job and i've been working on my speech and uh i think i'm gonna murder i think you're gonna murder too that's another comedy yeah i kind of rehearsed it to lena a little bit um there's probably a couple things i'm gonna take out that she said maybe you shouldn't say that and i'm like maybe you're right. Martin, come here. But that's going to be exciting. I told the lady giving me my haircut today that there's going to be a penguin.
Starting point is 00:14:37 And she was like, oh, my God. She's like, if you ever come back here and I'm your hairstylist again, please show me pictures of the penguin. I was like, I'll try to remember. You probably won't be able to get any pictures because you're going to be standing up at the front but that's true I'll take some pics that's true and also I feel like wedding photographers kind of frown on people taking their own pictures right as long as you're like, yeah, like you for sure. If you, but like. Or is it more of a like, don't post it on Facebook before we do? No, I don't think they, I don't think people usually mind that. I think it's more like they don't want to take a picture of someone of like the wedding itself and then have like 12 people have their phones out in the picture.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Oh yeah, no, yeah. That's, yeah. in the picture oh yeah no yeah that's yeah we live in a day and age where everyone's like you go and you look at uh like you look at uh i feel like there's an image somewhere on the internet of like tiger woods back in the day when he was like really coming up and he was like the best golfer in the world yeah and everyone was like in the crowd it was like a picture staring at him and then it was like tiger then and then tiger now and it's just you can't even see anyone's faces because they're all just holding their phones up that's kind of crazy and it's kind of sad yeah it's sad from an
Starting point is 00:15:58 outside perspective but we all know if we were there we'd be one of the people with our phones up. Because we all want to capture it. We think it's like we're capturing a moment. But, I mean, you're capturing the moment in your brain no matter what. Who are you going to show that picture to? No one's going to care. Well, so much of the internet nowadays is showing people that you're doing things and seeing people and you know what i mean it's almost like we're constantly bragging or it might be some sort of level of self-consciousness where it's like we don't want to feel like we're not doing anything in life
Starting point is 00:16:36 and we want to show others that we're doing something with our lives but i don't know i mean i guess if they're all like snapchatting like they're bros like yeah getting a picture of tiger i guess i don't know there he is have fun messing with the fatty the fatty lumpkin hello fatty um the next cat we get we're naming him bombadil or some form of bombadil i love bombadil. Hi, Martin. On Call of Duty, Trace and I, so you can make a clan tag, which is like a four-letter thing in front of your gamer tag. Okay. Like on Call of Duty.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Yeah. And Trace and I were talking about Tom Bombadil, and we made our clan tag Tom B, which is badass because it's also the word tomb yeah so we're like hell yeah we're about tom b about put you in a tomb uh what was i gonna tell you i was gonna ask you something before this but i don't remember what before we started recording or yeah i thought of something that i was gonna ask you but I can't remember so maybe it'll come back to me in the meantime let's talk about this beer olympics a little bit yeah I was gonna bring that up yeah yeah um so I recently watched the Will Compton and Taylor LeJuan uh busting with the boys whatever beer olympics the 2023 the 2023 one they haven't done the 2024 yet one yet yeah probably coming up because it seems like a summer thing um and i was showing
Starting point is 00:18:16 the video to lena and she was basically like we need to do a fucking beer olympics yeah yes um and so i love i just remember what i was gonna ask you go ahead i love doing things and drinking at the same time you know what i mean if i'm gonna drink yeah i think that's part of the reason i've outgrown bars a little bit is because what the fuck is there to do like I want to like yeah I want to have a few drinks but I also like want to be doing something I don't want to just sit there and like dancing's
Starting point is 00:18:54 fine but not every bar you can dance at like I wish there were more game bars yeah which is why the beer olympics is great because you're drinking and you're doing things at the same time. We're carpy tonight. Well, we're both drinking carbonated beverages.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Yeah. So what I was going to ask you ties into this. Okay. So I'm going to ask you something. Okay. That's going to relay back to me. Okay. Because that's how i roll do you ever get something that you're fixated on like a project of some sort or
Starting point is 00:19:35 something you want to work on or something that you're looking forward to and then do you lay in bed at night and just kind of dwell on it like before you fall asleep when you say dwell on it do you mean like just think about it like kind of playing it in your head almost yeah like like like think about it from different angles brains basically brainstorm yeah this is this isn't like you're anxious and you can't fall asleep it's like you can't fall asleep because your mind is thinking about something in this case and this is where it comes back to me i was i do this i don't know what that was a weird fucking throat um i was doing this last night about the beer olympics because i was brainstorming about like what order we'll do the events in,
Starting point is 00:20:25 what events we're going to do. I think I've got it pretty much narrowed down how I want it. Okay. So I – the boys did the three beer boot chug. Yeah. Now, three beers is a lot. That's 36 ounces. I don't think we should do three beers.
Starting point is 00:20:51 Right. There's like NFL athletes and offensive linemen that are doing it. It's like, maybe they can do it. Yeah. But you cannot. Unless you're Uncle Lazer and you have a little bird beak for a mouth. That was so funny. A little bird esophagus.
Starting point is 00:21:09 I got a small esophagus, a bird mouth, a beak, you might say. And so what I was like, what if we just do two beers? And then I was like, even that's a lot. What if we just did one beer for the girls and two beers for the guys? And I'm like, then it dawned on me what we'll just do a pint which is 16 ounces and we'll call it the pound a pint challenge oh because that's a phrase that i've coined i like it i like tm tm tm no one can take that okay do you know what that means trademark yeah okay i think it's legally behind you though like if you if you think of something and out loud you say tm tm tm you have to say it three
Starting point is 00:21:51 times no just trademark like it's like a horcrux or something yeah um pound a pint will be the first competition kick things off get everyone a nice buzz and you're not struggling to chug three beers and then probably throwing up because we're all do you want to know what joke i just we're not experts yeah what'd you come up with pound a pint is a challenge you also do on friday nights but not with alcohol ice cream oh i guess okay we'll edit that out. Jake will edit that out. No, we won't. We keep things moving here. You kind of do pound a pint, though.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Like, you can pound a pint of ice cream. Oh, easily. I just don't do it every Friday night. No. Because you don't let me. I'm just kidding. I would like you to live past 53, please. I mean, I had a lot of energy drinks today because I'm just waiting for that heart to explode but um i'm tall so let's i'm not gonna say let's make it snappy let's let's make this thing lively
Starting point is 00:22:54 shut the fuck up what were you gonna say um pound a pint pound a pint i've i've kind of jokingly said that phrase a little bit with some of my friends, like Spencer. At the bar, like when we were at Roca, I was like, come on, let's all pound a pint. And so I think that'd be good. A tall boy. Okay. It would still probably be hard for you. Yeah, but chugging a fucking high noon is hard for me. Right.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Or any boys that might have a small esophagus or a beak a little brute beak a beak you might say um but i think that'd be good and i think what we should do is um and i don't know how they did it in the video but like i i don't think they did bracket style as in this couple goes against each other and whoever wins has to face the winner of the next one because that's depending on how many couples you get that's a lot of pints you got a pound yeah fuck that i think they just did it based on time yeah i think so like you choose who starts and you choose who goes second i don't think it really matters you can stand in front of the other team just to add a little bit extra layer of competition yeah um
Starting point is 00:24:07 but i think yeah we'll just have like a ref with a stopwatch and like you say go and you both start and then when they sit there drink down the next person starts and then whoever has the fastest time yeah well i guess i guess it'll just have to be a points-based thing. Every competition, I think, is points-based. So you can move up. Because it's not like, oh, you beat this couple in this competition. You move on and they're done. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:37 Everyone competes in every competition. Yeah. So it's a points-based thing. Yeah. Or you could do like a gold medal for each. Like an Olympics. So there could be like a first place, second place, third place. For each competition.
Starting point is 00:24:54 For each competition. What if we did that? That'd be kind of cool. Like, yeah, I got bronze in the pound to pint, but I got gold in the beer pong. That'd be kind of fun. Yeah. pound a pint but i got gold in the beer pong that'd be kind of fun so you so if you win multiple events you could say i'm a highly decorated beer olympian that's kind of sick we might have to do that okay those uh those gold medal uh beer uh beer bottle opener are things i don't and i don't think they're that expensive and i think you can get silver and brown ones.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Okay. So. What else are we going to do for the competitions? So I think you start off with pound a pint. Yep. And then I'd like to do beer pong. Yep. Because that can get highly competitive.
Starting point is 00:25:41 And so I don't want anyone to be too and uh too drunk the other thing that was happening in the last episode you were belching a lot right into the mic i just did it again that's okay um i turned my head on the first one and i said fuck it yeah fuck it um y'all can listen to me burp and i think we need to implement the rule that if you swat a ball, it's an automatic cut for the other team. That goes for me and Cam. There's also going to be a rule of here are the fucking rules. If you are pouting about it, you're disqualified. I think if there's any argument. Well, we have that.
Starting point is 00:26:15 We have that sheet with all the rules. No, I mean about any of the games. If you pat about anything and decide to argue, disqualified. Point deduction. We're going to have referees there. I don't. of the games if you pat about anything and decide to argue disqualified point deduction we're gonna have referees there i don't like this is not gonna we're this is gonna be serious competition yeah but i just don't because even in the video we were watching granted they are oh they were oh but they were getting fucking pissed and that's not why we're doing it we're doing it to have fun no yeah it's definitely to have fun i think there should be consequences take your silver medal in the beer ball just shut the fuck up and just move on
Starting point is 00:26:50 drink your beer yeah be grateful you got a medal be grateful you were invited at all talk that talk talk that shit um so beer pong and then either beer ball or flip cup, I think four events. Cause if we're doing this with, if depending on how many people we have, you know, we don't want it to get dark. I think the competitions are going to take just long enough. And I think for, I think that's how many competitions I did in the video. Beer ball. No, they did the bat one too.
Starting point is 00:27:23 Oh, that was at the very end where they took the two the top two teams oh because that one did look fun oh yeah because they had a trophy for the winning team yeah so i don't know i guess there's a couple different ways we could do it we could do it individual events or we can do a trophy maybe we can do a give out a trophy for who has the highest you know if you have two golds, two silvers, and a bronze, and the next best team has three bronzes and a gold. I don't know. You know.
Starting point is 00:27:57 Yeah. Whoever has the highest medal value, I guess, across the events gets the trophy. I don't know. We could also just make the trophy, the trophy i don't know we could also just make the trophy too block of wood red solo cup little ping pong ball spray paint that shit gold yeah we could make it because i think the one on amazon was like 30 some bucks yeah fuck that we can make that shit yeah i mean i could make that we could make that um but yeah i guess stay tuned because we're gonna we want to film it yeah my plan is to film it and do kind of like basically not copy their video but like like they did in their video but
Starting point is 00:28:33 also in jersey shore but a little like confessional where they cut to yeah the confessional room where they're like sitting down yeah i think that'd be so fucking funny yeah picture some of the characters we'd have there and picture the things i'd have to say like picture ben hold away ben after a competition just going like you know i thought i had it but then spencer just came in and swifted right out for me he cracks me up he's so, man. Should we talk about our gambling? I went gambling for the first time. Oh, yeah, yeah. I feel like it's not that exciting, but...
Starting point is 00:29:09 Tell me what you thought about it, because recently I've taken a liking to... I don't know. Ever since Vegas, and a little bit before Vegas, I've kind of been enamored by slot machines a little bit but I'll give my reasoning why to defend myself but I want you to tell me what you thought about it just give me your honest
Starting point is 00:29:34 about the entire ambiance of the casino can you scoot your mic a little bit closer to your bird beak um my thoughts I never fully understood it what the fuck was happening granted i could have clicked on like the game oh i hit my head i could have clicked on like the rules and tried to figure it out from like on this like what the thing what things i needed to get but like sometimes that things would pop up and it'd be in a row row and i wouldn't get points but then if there was like the same number of them but they were in different spots i would get I guess that points money at win. Yeah. Well, I think for this particular case of you were being confused by it.
Starting point is 00:30:32 It was also my first time. So, like, what the fuck do I know? That is probably purposefully done in order to get you to spend more money or. Yeah. Or make you think you're winning money when you're not winning very much yeah um the rules are kind of confusing and some games are different so some games where you think depends on the game a little bit like some games the bonus is you have to get six of the certain icon or you have to get three of a certain icon or you have to get eight of a certain icon yeah so
Starting point is 00:31:06 and they're all designed to make you think you're close to getting a bonus which would lead to a potentially a big win um and it may or may not happen um yeah so that was that i mean it was fine but um i lost all my money i would think i would have really enjoyed it if i did win some but i lost it all um it was fun though i mean i enjoyed it i can see how it's addicting because like i don't know all the pretty colors and the bells and whistles. Well, that and also, like, you do it, and then half the time I was sitting there thinking, okay, I've sat here for a little bit now. Surely it's got to... It's bound to give me a win.
Starting point is 00:31:57 It's bound to turn around at least a little bit. Right. And, like, maybe not a massive win, but, like, something. And sometimes it will and sometimes it won't. Yeah. It's all RNG. Like, I watched a video where an engineer, like, a former tech engineer in, like, slot machine tech was breaking down everything for the most part. It was, like, a 30-minute long video.
Starting point is 00:32:26 And basically he was talking about how it's all rng it doesn't matter if you put a thousand dollars in it doesn't mean the machine has to pay you because you put so much in yeah it's all random yeah but you might win and you might not putting putting in a thousand bucks might improve your chances though too because you've got more depending on how big of bets you do yeah if you put a thousand dollars in and do one dollar spins that's a thousand spins but yeah if you put 40 bucks in and do one dollar spins you only 40 yeah um but you also can't think about it logically either because it's not yeah so like for for games there's a lot of games where there's like an ultra spins bonus uh times two bonus and a free games bonus you know like the three different colors
Starting point is 00:33:21 or like piles of gems or something like that and they all like get bigger as you go so you think it's closer to hitting yeah and it's all just to make you think that it's gonna hit soon yeah to keep you playing yeah because no matter what any one of those can randomly go off at any time on any spin yeah so that's one of the ways that they can keep you on there but it's all rng like he said you know that one machine i was playing like the classical just three reels yeah where the one guy that i actually knew came over yeah yeah and left his phone yeah so that well it's a top dollar machine but i think it's also a double diamond technically yeah basically he said the double diamond machine
Starting point is 00:34:10 the odds of getting three double diamonds he said was like one in 42 000 jesus christ which he said is actually pretty low but i'm also delusional enough to think I could win the lottery. So. Everyone is. No, I know. But I mean, like, actually think. Like, I don't. I mean, we don't religiously buy lottery tickets. But I'm delusional enough. I don't know if I've ever bought a lottery ticket.
Starting point is 00:34:34 I've never bought a lottery ticket either. I've been gifted, like, I guess grad jobs don't count. But I'm delusional enough to think when the jack. When the. When the jackpot's at a billion. Yeah, that. Excuse me. Jesus, I am burping. You're like, I have to win it.
Starting point is 00:34:52 There's no way this won't hit. In my head, I'm like, I'm going to go buy a ticket and I'm going to fucking win. And my life's going to change forever. Whereas I think people who buy them every day, they're probably still delusional enough to think they're going to change forever whereas i think people who buy them every day they're probably still delusional enough to think they're going to win but then your odds are higher you're increasing well okay so here's the other thing too when you hit a bonus on a machine i always get up and leave because i'm like it's not going to hit again because it just gave it to me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:26 But the moment, every single spin, it's the same odds. These machines aren't predetermined to give out wins, but they are predetermined to... It's a one in this many thousand chance of getting this. It's a one in this many thousand of getting this this. It's a one in this many thousand of getting this. Every time you spin the machine, it's that. Yeah. It's not, well, now that you hit the machine, it's one and double that. Because you just hit it.
Starting point is 00:35:55 You know the other thing I thought of while I was gambling? How much money would you make if... Because, like, you can press the button. Press the button, whatever. whatever it can go down go up but like at one point i think i put it like i put it into 20 and it went up to like 23 and i was like if i cashed out every time that i made just a little bit i'd probably make more than like trying to go for an even bigger win you know what do you get what i'm saying like if you just took that ticket out and went to a different machine yeah and then potentially every game i played i just played it like okay if it goes above what i put in cash the fuck out you'd probably make more money
Starting point is 00:36:37 doing that than you would trying to make like because when i put the 20 in i just kept going even though it went over 23 i was like i'm just gonna keep going because what if and this is what I was telling people about like in Vegas they're like did you win anything and I'm like well there were certain times when I was up but I was in Vegas for three days yeah I'm not just gonna I put in 100 and i'm at 150 if i just stopped woohoo i made 50 bucks but what the fuck are you gonna do the rest now i'm i'm not gonna go sit in my hotel room and do nothing yeah but i'm spending 50 on a dinner yeah so big i guess vegas is different than going to like a casino. But then, and this is the caveat, and this is the real kicker of it. If you're plus 50, yes, you're plus, but that's going to disappear really quickly. If you hit a $6,000 bonus, then you can say, well, I can just take a thousand of this and keep going
Starting point is 00:37:46 and that'll last me the whole night and I'll still walk away with a $5,000 profit. Yeah. So it's really only. I do think though I'm. It's really only worth in theory. It's only worth walking away if it's a substantial amount where you can keep gambling for a while and still walk away with money. If you put in 20
Starting point is 00:38:05 and you make 23 i'm saying but if you do that over and over and over you can make three bucks just going out and asking someone if they have three dollars yeah but i'm saying if that is like your approach to every game you play you'll probably make i would have made more if i did that every time because i didn't make anything because i just kept right spinning and the only the only shitty thing about that is if you took your 23 voucher out and put it into the machine next to you you're just as likely to make three more dollars on that as you would if you would have just done another spin on the machine you were just on but are you though it's all it's all about superstition and what you believe and if you're lucky and
Starting point is 00:38:50 here's the thing again it's rng random number generation do you want to know where i think my delusion about what comes from because you think you're living in a simulation because you got on zach bagan's instagram no add Julia. That's fucking sick. I can't believe that. She doesn't think she's living in a simulation, but that is simulation-esque. I actually don't think we're living in a simulation. I don't fucking think that either.
Starting point is 00:39:14 I do think we're living on a flat Earth. Just kidding. I'm not a flat Earther at all. You heard it here first, folks. But do you want to know where my delusion comes from? There has got to be gravity pulling down this hog. There's no way his belly droops this low on a flat earth. Oh, yeah, 100%.
Starting point is 00:39:33 He's such a big boy. Anyways. My delusion comes from... This is such a... I've never told anyone this, so's getting it's not that deep but like so there was one summer where tori was at a softball game tori was playing and i didn't have a softball game that day so i went with my family to the the place where the tournament was held so it was like an all-day thing so granted i had all day but i was sitting down in the grass and there was all these
Starting point is 00:40:06 um clover plants all over and i found like seven four leaf clovers oh my god seven seven's a lucky number it i don't know that it was exactly seven but it was say seven for the sake of the story okay it was seven okay we'll edit that out it was more than more than two and more than three like it was quite a few and ever since then i'm like i'm a lucky bitch granted well why didn't you put one of them motherfuckers in your pocket when we went to the casino because they've all wilted and like dried up and gone away because can't you put them in some kind of preserving probably but i was like i was like nine the fuck was i gonna you weren't like i definitely use this one day in a casino yeah there used to be one in my car and yet i've still gone in like five accidents so i don't think it's that lucky that sucks um but knowing what i know now
Starting point is 00:40:59 those plants thing is a five leaf clover yeah probably is that even luckier than a four i don't know it's probably unlucky or some shit like that really but knowing what i know now is probably just those plants had a certain genetic mutation can you get your butthole out of everyone's face i was thinking about what i'm gonna title this episode and i was thinking about titling it dirt star but i don't know I don't know how that would work dirt star and throat goat that's what that's what our team name is gonna be yeah for the beer olympics because Jake can like open his fucking esophagus and just a little bit you have the opposite of a bird beak what's the opposite of a bird beak the opposite of a bird beak would probably be like a snake yeah you're like a fucking jaw to swallow a deer yeah you just like fucking open your throat but i don't know how you
Starting point is 00:41:54 do it i don't open it as much as like ronnie deutsch that guy on tiktok that can literally just he opens it so much that he doesn't swallow. Yeah. He just pours it and it goes straight down. I can't do that. I think with enough training you could. Well, probably. I think I saw a comment where someone was like, how do you train to do this?
Starting point is 00:42:19 And he was like, do it by a sink. Do it by a sink because you can fucking throw up. Or just a lot of spilling. that's why martin i think martin martin i think that's probably why you are so loud when you throw up though too why because i got a large esophagus yeah you got a large you and you and uncle laser should be what do you think uncle Laser sounds like when he throws up? Bleh. Bleh. Bleh.
Starting point is 00:42:51 You think he's an anime character when he throws up? I think it's really... Bleh. Well, you're like... Should we start watching Pokemon? No. Okay. I'm sorry. Just thought I'd throw that out there.
Starting point is 00:43:00 I'd watch some other anime, maybe. Why not Pokemon? Of all the animes, I feel like you would like Pokemon because it's got a bunch of little critters. How would you not like Pokemon? But what's really the plot, I guess? Maybe I should do something. They run around and find new critters and try to get them. See, I need a good plot to watch something.
Starting point is 00:43:21 You know what I mean? I can't just... Well, the fact that you don't even know what the plot of it is. Why are you discounting it so easily? Yeah, exactly. That's that's why i was gonna say if you would have let me fucking finish the very first episode of pokemon and then from there we'll go yay or nay i think we should i still think we should watch dragon ball z i was gonna say house of the dragon slash that's not anime no i know jake jake's not a big like tv show person are you no i like my youtube videos that i've already seen before yeah which is kind of a bummer because i don't know if i've ever discussed that on the pod how i love re-watching things
Starting point is 00:44:00 it's an anxiety thing for sure is it yeah re-watching things you've already seen because i know what i'm getting and i know i'm gonna like it yeah because and i'm really and i'm willing to part with uh the newness factor yeah like and you know what's gonna happen so you don't have to anticipate well it's not that i'm worried i'm the only thing i'm worried about is if i'm wasting my time on something that i'm not gonna like versus queuing up something that i know i'm gonna like because i've seen it before yeah i know i like it but you can always start so it might be an ocd thing i mean anxiety and ocd are so closely tied together but you can always start something and then if you don't like it does everyone see how he's not listening to me do you have a skinny marketing you can always start something and not finish it right martin is the opposite of having having no cd but then
Starting point is 00:44:58 there's the but then there's the did i waste my time watching five episodes of it not finishing it why did i even start to begin with i think you're putting too much value on your time and anxiety because the only time you're going to be watching it is when you're like sitting at home chillaxing you know what i mean but my my chillaxing time is so hard to come by i have to maximize it you do have when we're done with this i might go farm i mean just i don't know what i'm going to do farming to me is getting to the point like reading or it makes me sleepy we're not going to play any harry potter oh yeah we can do that i forgot you're not recording with julia yeah um and we're going to be gone a lot
Starting point is 00:45:43 well i'm specifically i'm going to be gone a lot. Well, I'm specifically going to be gone a lot lately. So, like, we need to take advantage of our Harry Potter time that we have. My toe fucking hurts. Still from volleyball. Do you want to talk about that or I was going to talk about. I think I'm going to lose my toenail. No, you're not. Would you still love me if I lost my toenail?
Starting point is 00:46:06 What the fuck? Would you still love me if I was a worm? I'm joking. Oh, yeah, that social media thing. Go ahead. What? First of all, you're not going to lose your toe because typically it's when something lands on it and kills the cuticle. Not my toe.
Starting point is 00:46:21 My toenail. The toenail. Usually it's when something like lands on like the cuticle like trace had that heavy metal grate laid on it he's gonna lose that nail i don't think i'm gonna lose my toenail i'm just yours just got slightly pulled up and you were like yeah but then when i when we were in stromsberg over the weekend uh we were walking in this tall grass and the stick went underneath the same oh my god trigger warning yeah stick went underneath my toenail and like lifted it up again probably should have wore some like combat boots does that give you the ebbs or some
Starting point is 00:47:00 closed toed shoes if you're gotta yeah but my if you've got a bum wheel. But I'm afraid that's going to hurt it more. No one cares about my fucking toe. What were you going to say? I don't. I was going to say that one thing I have written down. To talk about tonight? That I was going to just talk about in general on the pod.
Starting point is 00:47:20 Okay. Was about you, so we might as well bring it up since you're here. And it was that Lena and I i uh go through kicks i'll say um like for a while we had an office kick specifically clips of the office on youtube not watching the actual office episode we're not gonna get fucking peacock now we had a kick uh jersey shore. We were watching Jersey Shore for a while. And here's the thing. I have a weird compulsion to finish things, even if I don't necessarily enjoy it. And we haven't finished Jersey Shore. Because we move on to something else.
Starting point is 00:47:55 I know. It's not me. It's not we. It is, though. It's a you thing. We moved on to Ghost Adventures. That kind of fell off. What did we pick back up on hell's kitchen did i already say that hell's kitchen not hell's kitchen kitchen nightmares
Starting point is 00:48:15 yeah um that kind of fell off and then we got on uh dr ph Live. And then I killed Tony. YouTube is kind of different when there's not like a set series to watch. Well, yeah, and especially when there's 600 episodes of Kill Tony. Yeah. Or more. But right now, we are on a Lego Harry Potter kick. Yeah, not watching anything. Playing Lego Harry Potter on the Xbox.
Starting point is 00:48:48 Which, Lena is not an e-girl no i did not grow up with any video games whatsoever we didn't have a wii we didn't have an xbox we didn't have a playstation she is not an e-girl so i'm not good at video games um you're not bad at video games though but you But you... You should see me play Mario Kart. But you specifically like a certain type of video game. And that is... Or rather, one... The types of video games that you don't like are ones that you have to move and also look around. Basically, first person. You don't like first person games.
Starting point is 00:49:22 No, because I struggle enough... Like in Lego Harry Potter, where it's not first person at all. I struggle enough to like... It's not even third person. It's like a scene and you can move your player. And I still struggle enough with getting through holes and jumping. Well, and it is kind of hard because there's a lack of depth perception. When it's like a lack of depth perception when it's like yeah
Starting point is 00:49:46 you know there's so there's side scrollers like super mario the original is a side scroller basically it's like two-dimensional where it's just him and it's like one plane where you're moving up and down yeah there's no coming towards the camera or away from the camera. Yeah. It's all one plane. And I still struggle with that. But like Harry Potter, Lego Harry Potter, or any Lego game for that matter, it's like a weird version of three-dimensional and two-dimensional where you're only moving the left stick to move around. Yeah. And it's like one set scene that you can move around in. And like the camera kind of follows you, but only in one. It's like, it's kind of like, you know, like sitcoms or really.
Starting point is 00:50:44 Yeah, it's like you're watching something. Really any TV show where it's show where it's the same backdrop. But if they turn the cameras around, you would see the whole camera set up. The living room doesn't continue. There's no wall over there. It's a camera. Yeah. Do you want to know what I just had? What?
Starting point is 00:51:01 How much of Cam's spit is on this pop filter? Probably none because he never talks into his mic because he's always like this you know what i thought about and i'm just like oh my god listening back on episodes there's times where don't talk shit on cam well at least not with i'm talking shit on myself because the setup we have with these mics is the quiet parts are really quiet and the loud parts are really loud. I know my last episode. By the way, by the way, if you're interested in. Let me let me pull a kill Tony thing right here. You can cut me off.
Starting point is 00:51:41 I'm going to plug my podcast. You're going to have to pay for it. Does the cat die if you like true crime spooky shit but our last episode was like that
Starting point is 00:51:50 especially how many subscribers do you have oh you don't even post on YouTube pretty lackluster pod if you ask me but well and we only did once a month go ahead and go over there if you're
Starting point is 00:51:58 if you're if you've I'll let you guys go and subscribe slash follow their podcast once you've listened to every single one of these episodes. If you go back and listen to episode one and go all the way up to episode 45 and listen to all of them, then you can go and subscribe. Have you rated my podcast? That's your fee.
Starting point is 00:52:19 What? Have you rated my podcast? Rated it? Yeah. No. I see. Your podcast came out. Have you rated mine yeah five stars on spotify and apple podcasts and every time an episode comes out i don't necessarily listen to it because i
Starting point is 00:52:33 hear your voice all the time but i do like scroll through to the end because you're like if i listen to jake's voice right now at work i'm gonna get horny and i can't do that yeah that's exactly what happens so you're like i gotta save that for No, I just start to fall asleep in my chair. That might be our opening clip. But I see who the better person in this relationship is. The more supportive partner is me. But I'm more creative. Let me drink my last beer so there is a
Starting point is 00:53:08 will you get my last beer for me please thank you you are the most okay hey you just proved it you are the most supportive one because i grabbed you a beer yes um there's a lawn that was within arm's reach what were we playing when we were at because it was at your parents house i don't know but i got really uncomfortable at one point when I heard something I wish I wouldn't have. It was like a couple's game. It was like a board game slash card game kind of thing. Yeah. That had cards where it was like, it was like it tested the knowledge of your partner.
Starting point is 00:53:43 Yes. And all. But so specifically the card that I'm going to talk about was like, who's the most creative in your relationship? Because I think. So what it was, was voted you. But only you two voted like we only the people in the partnership voted. Right. Yes. And if you both chose the same, you got a point. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:03 So if you both agreed on one okay so you guys have you guys ever seen a clip of like a wedding reception where the bride and groom are the bride and groom are sitting back to back and they get asked a question like yeah who does more of the cooking who has more shoes or whatever you know and you hold up the shoe of the it's kind of like that where but if they picked the same shoe in this instance. They got a point. They would get a point. So, we'll get to what creeped you out in a second.
Starting point is 00:54:33 But the card that I will forever hold a vendetta against Jacob for is, the card said, who's the most creative in your relationship? And I voted for myself and you voted for yourself so wait so why am i when you voted for yourself actually no i think i did vote for you because i was being nice oh yeah you voted for me to be nice and i voted for me to be right motherfucker and we got a point so now anytime we're talking about anything creative. But you were mad that I didn't vote for you. Because I'm also fairly creative. But the question was who's more creative. Look at those audios.
Starting point is 00:55:14 Would you not count like writing as creative? You're very creative. Okay. Darling. Thank you. I'm just more creative. In my opinion. I think we're creative
Starting point is 00:55:25 in different ways anywho sure what's the part that creeped you but if the question was more i just believe in myself i do think i do think you um you follow through with your creative endeavors more than i do it doesn't it's not really fair you think of a video idea and you edit it and you just post it whereas i think of something and then i just don't fucking do it half the time well and also my mind races so much yeah that i i'm counting that as being creative because i'm creating scenarios in my head a lot of times. Yeah. So it's kind of a, I don't know, it's kind of an unfair advantage when you have anxiety slash undiagnosed OCD and your brain can just, well, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:56:24 Me fucking too. I don't know. Me fucking too. I don't know. I think the difference is you have more time to think than I do. That might be true. Your job requires more thinking than mine. Mine is a very physical job. Yeah. So I have the liberty of being able to stew about things
Starting point is 00:56:43 and create things in my mind. Basically, at the end of our days, you're physically exhausted and I'm mentally exhausted. That's very true. What I want to know though. We're not so different, you and I. I want to know though what the thing that creeped you out in that game we were playing was though. Well, I don't think it was that game. I think it was a different one.
Starting point is 00:57:04 Was it us or was it about your parents? It was about your parents my parents oh maybe we shouldn't then yeah i don't want to i don't like thinking about it okay um i'll make you tell me after the pod i will um but but yeah so and like in some instances like on fridays i'll think of a funny a funny TikTok I want to make and then I'll just do it yeah at work exactly while I'm like waiting for a greens mower so I can change the cup we brought it back to turf there you go um so yeah there's a lot of times where I'm like I really want to make this and then I storyboard the whole thing in my head and i'm like i know exactly what i want and where i want it and the timing of it now i just have to physically do it yeah are you gonna throw up it takes a special brain to do that
Starting point is 00:57:55 and if there's one thing i can if there's one thing we can agree on you have a special brain whether good or bad you have a smooth brain i have a special brain no ridges or bumps or valleys or lumps um what else is new that's what you always say with your parents when you're trying to talk when when the conversation comes to a lull and you're trying to continue it you always go what else is new or what else do you know? Because I usually have to prod them a little bit. What do you know? What else do you know? I know I kind of have to take a poop.
Starting point is 00:58:32 Can you hold on for two more minutes? I can hold on for however long. Should we try to end this exactly on one hour? We'll probably get done and I'll go and try and take a poop. And then... Oh my god. I have a very serious question okay so if you're not recording the pod with julie tonight does that mean we're not having jack's pizzas anymore yeah we're not yeah what are we having then i don't know whatever you want
Starting point is 00:58:58 oh well within bounds of what i got for suppers. Okay. That was one thing we talked about in the last pod was the new regimen of you going and getting foods. Yeah. Like meals. Yeah. And you have the freedom of being able to just go and get it and not have to ask me anything. And then I don't have to like have to try to think about it.
Starting point is 00:59:25 And how much more work that is on my well but it's also supposed to make it easier for you that you can like just go to the store and look up something and then you don't have to run it by me but if i'm just feeding myself easy peasy no problem but if i'm feeding both of us a we have a little bit harder we have different tastes in food right sure right and if you don't necessarily like the food that we make i don't eat enough and then some a lot of it goes to waste that was the other thing we talked about too was um and it was actually the opening clip i talked about how you'd have to treat me like a dog and like that you're trying to sneak a pill into their into like a hot dog to get them
Starting point is 01:00:10 to eat a hot eat a pill. Yeah. Eat medicine. Yeah. And like you do that with veggies in certain dishes like you try to sneak the veggie in. Yeah. And you're like just don't ask what's in it. Do you want to know what I was talking to my mom about while we were in Stramsburg?
Starting point is 01:00:28 How did Maggie end up having, because she likes all kinds of foods. She likes pho. She likes Indian. I would argue she would. She used to be really picky. Really? I don't know if she just grew into an adult palate more vigorously than me or uh or what but it was kind of backwards because
Starting point is 01:00:51 when we were younger she didn't like hot dogs or mac and cheese the fuck yeah who doesn't like hot dogs mac and cheese but then did she like more like unique things when she was younger i don't know i don't know my i'm i'm basically most averse to like green vegetables really veggies in general like i don't really like i mean i'm not gonna sit here and name all the vegetables i don't like but like i don't really like fish either maggie likes salmon she kind of developed a liking for salmon it was kind of one day she was just like let's have salmon and uh fried asparagus and I'm just like um and I didn't like it I'm like this tastes like a lake how did they make it do you remember just cooked it on a grill so like the seasoning and there wasn't any seasonings or glazes.
Starting point is 01:01:47 It didn't matter. It didn't taste very good. But it does matter, especially with salmon. With a lot of fish, it really does matter how you season it and how you make it. This is my biggest thing. Your brain would work so much better if you had more Omega-3s. Okay. Would it slow it down or speed it up no i'm saying the level of creativity you are now imagine what your brain would be like on omega so then i would just be like you'd be way surpassed you in creativity all right goodbye guys um i'm just kidding but um i i here's here's the thing okay when it comes to
Starting point is 01:02:29 seafood what's the number one thing people always say about good seafood it doesn't even taste like fish it tastes like chicken oh it doesn't don't worry it doesn't taste like fish also if it doesn't if a requirement for it to be good is it has to not taste like what it is. That's setting that food up to not be liked. I will give you credit. It's like don't worry it's fried. You can't even taste it. But you've had fried fish.
Starting point is 01:02:59 But that's what it is. You've had fried fish and you liked it. Exactly. If it's got to be prepared in a very specific way and have to not taste like what it is, then it's just a caveat to, I don't know, not be a very favorable palatable food. But it's also so good for you, most of it. So the credit I will give you is that you have a pretty sophisticated palate. Basically, Jake's positive qualities are he's creative and he a pretty sophisticated palate basically jake's um positive qualities are he's
Starting point is 01:03:27 creative and he has a sophisticated palate in the sense that i can taste like the soda challenge you can you can really taste things and i've never like if you fed me hamburger and deer because i grew up eating deer i think and also i just don't have that sophisticated of a palate. But if you fed me hamburger and deer and said, figure out which one is which, I would not be able to tell you. Do you think the reason why I don't like them is because I can taste every little bitter quality to them? I do think that's an aspect of it. And you're just like, it doesn't really taste like anything to me. Yeah, I think that's an aspect of it.
Starting point is 01:04:14 So what she's talking about is we did a blindfolded soda taste test. We didn't record it for anything. It was just something we did with friends for fun. Yeah. We had like six different dark sodas and like four different like Sprite, 7-Up, Sierra Mint. Yeah. We did Coke and Pepsi. And I aced that shit. Like I got every single – down to the – oh, I can taste the –
Starting point is 01:04:32 Because that's the other thing. I can taste the – Fake sugar. Fake sugar. I can't taste – In this. I know this is diet. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:42 So maybe that's why like when I eat like a asparagus or something i'm just like i didn't but here's the other thing i also think at some point you're gonna have to get over that well yeah and i've been getting better about it no you definitely have but i also think some of it is some of it as a mental hurdle yeah and some of it some of it's a mental hurdle some of it's your taste buds and some of it is how it's prepared for you because like you just put salt pepper on shit this raw broccoli it's like i can i can eat it it just doesn't taste good so yeah i'm not gonna willingly eat something i don't like but like like some.
Starting point is 01:05:26 I'd rather just take a supplement. Asparagus with some prosciutto. And like some seasonings. I think you would fuck with. Again it's okay. I just wouldn't choose to eat it. No. And it's not something I would look forward to eating.
Starting point is 01:05:40 No. So after like a long day of working in the hot sun. Where I'm craving like a hearty meal because i'm parched and exhausted this isn't knocking this is not knocking your cooking in any way no i know you prepare food very well and you make some of these things that i don't like taste good but i do i do make some weird it's just hard for me and it's a mental hurdle because, like in Rhett and Link's videos where Link eats a dish that he doesn't know what's in it. And he likes it and then he goes, but is there something in here I don't like? Because I don't want to accidentally like it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:20 It's like, either you like it or you don't. Maybe you should start eating all your meals blindfolded. I honestly, speaking of Hell's Kitchen, I was watching a clip of Hell's Kitchen where they were doing the palette challenge where they're blindfolded. Yeah. And they ate something. And I was like, I bet you could literally put anything in my face and I'd be fine because they're taking away the mental aspect of it. And if I would just eat it, I would be like, this is strange. What's that?
Starting point is 01:06:49 And they'd be like, oh, that's octopus. And I'd be like, oh. I would never willingly put that in my mouth. But now that it's in there, it's not horrible. They're so different in some ways. Okay. But because I would, I mean, I have had octopus. But like I would try anything once
Starting point is 01:07:06 like like the uh except for heroin what and what was that little tiny dish of soup um where i was about to you were about to tell me i was like don't tell me what it is and then i I ate it and I'm like, okay, it's not that bad. What is it? And you're like, it's mushroom. Did I make it? Your mom made it. I was at your parents' house where we had those little tiny glass spoons.
Starting point is 01:07:36 What was it called? Oh, um, I think it was, uh. Did it start with an S? Yeah, it was, uh, it wasn't sweet and sour. Actually, it might've been it wasn't sweet and sour actually it might have been it was sweet and sour or hot what is it i don't can't remember what it's called i don't know but it's a very it's like the common shi no that's a drink no it's a common soup you can get at um like any chinese food place where but it's got like tofu and hot and sour okay okay I think it was hot and
Starting point is 01:08:07 sour hot and okay yeah and it's sour it traditionally has mushrooms in it it was it was uh tofu and broth and this like squiggly mushroom whatever rubbery kind of thing but I ate it not knowing what any of it was I just did you like it i just took it for what it was worth it was good it was salty see it had a decent texture it wasn't it was not gross here's and then after the fact you were like that's mushroom and i'm like if you would have told me that beforehand i probably wouldn't have ate it yeah because i would have been scared to because i would have been scared here. Because I would have been scared. Here's my viewpoint.
Starting point is 01:08:48 But it ended up being pretty good. Here's my viewpoint on a lot of life. I'm only going to live for so long. I might as well experience. Eat a chicken fried steak. And well that. But try all the. Drink 600 milligrams of caffeine. Try all the things too.
Starting point is 01:09:04 You know what I mean? Fine. But, and not just food. Experiences in life as well. Like, why... You're not going to find out you like something or don't like something until you try it. Exactly. And, and, then you can say...
Starting point is 01:09:21 Because there might be something you've been avoiding your whole life. And you might love it. That you might love. And, the other thing is, then even if you don't like it, you can say, yeah, I've had that. I love being able to tell people, yeah, I've had some beef tongue. I've had some chicken feet. Oh, my God. Guys, this is a callback and we're coming full circle.
Starting point is 01:09:39 To our last episode? No, we're coming back to what we said about being able to tell people you did something yeah yeah full circle i don't i don't love gambling but now i can at least say i've gone to a fucking casino okay so this is what i'll have to say about gambling and why i like slot machines the the element of winning money is inherently awesome. Yeah. If you won money, fuck yeah, you won money. There's an element of camaraderie to it that I love. Where you and your boys are standing around a machine while one of your friends is doing spins on it.
Starting point is 01:10:22 And you're all rooting for it. For him. And then if it hits, you're all, yeah! And if it doesn't, you're just like, oh, come on, come on, come on. You know? There's an element of fun. Yeah. That's exterior from the game.
Starting point is 01:10:36 Yeah. Where there's a togetherness factor. Yeah. Where you're all rooting for something. I don't know. There's just something about that that I find fun. Or even not just your friends. Like the dude that came up behind us when we were playing the farming game.
Starting point is 01:10:48 I got the first machine I sat down on. It was like, what was it called? Cash crop, I think. Yeah. I think it was called cash crop. Which I won. I definitely won money on that. I was plus money on that in Vegas.
Starting point is 01:11:00 Oh. In Vegas. I played that a couple times. And didn't you win when we sat down? Oh, yeah. Yeah. I put down 50 and i pulled out 80 so that guy like phased out of nowhere he came out of thin air the moment i got the bonus
Starting point is 01:11:13 and it was a big bonus yeah um which only ended up paying 30 but it could have paid nothing again it could have paid probably less than 30 probably. It probably could have paid $1,000. It's all random. But, yeah, the moment my bonus hit, and I was just like, oh, my God, this is crazy. And then I just hear a voice behind me, and there's this guy just, like, going like, oh, man. He was an African-American guy, and it was just hilarious. He was like, come on, that major better be in there. Like, he was just like, he was rooting for me.
Starting point is 01:11:48 Yeah. And it was just fun. Yeah. It was like, I hit the bonus and yeah, I'm winning money. But also, I was more focused on the fact that you were sitting there watching and Cole was standing there watching. Yeah. This guy, that is what's fun to me. The element of camaraderie, I guess, is all I'll say.
Starting point is 01:12:07 I think if Martin was a human, he would have a gambling addiction. If Martin was a human... What would he look like? What would he look like? A little chunky. He'd probably be tall, though, because he's a long cat. No, if Martin was a human, he would look like Kristaps Porzingis if martin was a human he would look like christoph's porzingis no you know who he would look like look up christoph's porzingis on your on your laptop
Starting point is 01:12:30 you know who else he would look like who because he's kind of a ginger he would be a william what the fuck is his name he would not be william montgomery is that who you're talking about yeah because he's tall. He's tall. And Martin's long. But he's got a little bit of a gut. Martin's got a little bit of a gut. Okay, look up Kristaps Porzingis. As we are wrapping up the episode,
Starting point is 01:12:59 I just want to say, look at it. No, he's not chunky enough. What do you mean? He's lanky. He's got a long ass neck. Yeah, but Martin's got... Martin's lanky, but he's also got a little flow. He's blonde.
Starting point is 01:13:10 He's lanky. You know who else Martin would probably look like? What? Oh, I can't think of his name.
