Welcome to Guys, a podcast about guys.
I'm Brian and wistfully thinking about my childhood.
Hi, Chris.
How are you?
Oh, man.
No worries at all back then.
Only worry was, when am I going to get to the playground next to have a good slide?
Yeah, nobody paid bills back then.
It was all just beautiful times.
And the slides were, they were metal and they were hot.
Yeah, and they would burn your ass.
And even if they didn't, even if the heat off the slide didn't burn your ass,
it would burn your ass sliding down
because you're wearing short shorts.
Yep.
Well, I will say they still do have
some of those hot metal slides.
Do they actually?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
They're still out there.
And yesterday.
Because I've seen most of the playgrounds now
are kind of,
they're kind of like woke and plastic.
Oh, my God.
It's all made out of style.
It's like foam slides.
You know what I mean?
It's like,
remember the big wooden ones that we used to have?
Like they were like castles almost.
Oh,
you get slivers on them all the time.
Yeah,
I miss having slivers.
I miss having slivers.
I miss having slivers.
I love those.
But Charlie went on one of those slides and it wasn't hot, but it was raining.
And he had his muddy buddy on.
And I was like, I was like, you're going to go pretty fast here, buddy.
And he's just like, let's do this, you know?
And he went and he flew off of there, you know, just whipped himself off of there.
But he's a, he got back.
He wanted to go again right away.
You ever try to climb up the metal slide?
He does all the time.
He doesn't understand.
Oh, I did all day and all night.
That's all I really did in the 90s.
And our guests this week.
as you can hear.
I heard you did a bunch of other stuff in the 90s too.
Stefan,
I didn't do anything in the 90s.
Well,
I think
all I did in the 90s was good stuff.
I got A's and Bs on my report card and I never masturbated.
I honestly thought you said I got AIDS.
That's what it sounded like.
I did.
I'll tell you this.
I'll tell you this.
Now you got me being,
I'm not nostalgic.
I hated growing up.
I thought it was the shits.
Like I hated,
hated.
I wanted to be an adult.
by the time I was six.
Like I was just like, I would, I would have fucking got a job at six and just worked for the rest
because I hated it.
Well, you started like smoking at six, right?
Yeah, I'm trying to think of, yeah, I smoked, started smoking way earlier in him.
I started smoking at eight.
Wow.
But I mean, I smoked one cigarette in my bedroom.
I think it was nine maybe actually.
Yeah.
In the bedroom?
I mean, you must have like, they must have smelled it.
Well, I've mentioned this before.
It was, it was one of those situations where I was so young that I don't think
they believed it could possibly be true.
So they thought that it was cigarette smoke from outside.
Oh, wow.
So I never got caught for it.
Yeah.
Well, the story I was going to tell you is like one day I was out hanging out.
I don't remember where I was.
I was doing some shit.
You know what I mean?
And I got home and we used to play cards on this guy's front porch on, on Theo's front porch, actually.
Shout out to Theo.
Theo.
Well, it's not Theo Vaughn.
But he did.
He's a guy who came up with Queaver.
Oh, right. Okay. Yes. So anyway, we would go and play. You know, when I joined the call this morning, by the way, Brian was listening to the Quiber and the Gris, Benny and the Jets parody at like full blast. I was trying to clean my soundboard and it pressed the button and I couldn't figure out how to turn it off. I just see Brian just kind of like sitting there like swaying listening to the song. And you could hear the song. Oh, it was loud. Yeah, you can hear the stuff. I made that. That's my. It's great. No, I love it. Thank you. So anyway, we would play Euker and Spades on Theo's porch and listen to like Lind Biss.
getting stuff like that. You know what I mean?
By the way, rest in peace.
Sam Rivers, I know.
Wrote some of the best baselines
ever. So anyway,
like I got there one night. I might have been
at work. One of the rare times
I had a job back then.
I got there and they were like, hey, Angie
stopped by. Ex-girlfriend
had sex with her.
Oh, really? She got the
penis and vagina sex.
She told me she got the pole. She didn't
just get the suckle? She didn't. She didn't
just get the suckle?
she was the first yeah she certainly got the suckle she did get some titty suck what goes
that's the one i always tell the story about like that's where you lost your rigidity to though
yes and she's the one i always tell the story about where like i would this is so uncomfortable to say
because it's like so explicit you know what i mean and it's like a 16 year old trying to be romantic
so please don't like i need to like sit forward for this okay yeah just doing what he saw on tv but i
I would, I would, what were you watching?
Well, like, when you would watch, like, porno and stuff.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, HBO stuff.
Okay.
Like, HBO, like, late night stuff.
You know what I mean?
You're watching, like, yeah, the, the real sex or whatever.
Red shoe diaries.
Stuff like that, yeah, yeah.
So Brian became two senior citizens having sex with each other.
So I'm like, hey, uh, you know, what do I do here?
I don't know what I'm doing.
I had only previously sucked tities.
So I was doing that for, like, a man.
minute, but I was like, you got to get off these tities.
In your head, you even knew you're like, buddy, this is the moment you got to get off
these kids.
You got to stop.
Because you know what's going to happen.
She had told me earlier in the day that we were going to have sex.
So I knew that was going to happen, right?
She told me at lunch.
What was that day like?
Can you imagine a teenage kid being told he's going to have sex later?
You must have been the most nervous energy guy in the world.
for the rest of the day.
Everyone who encountered you that day was like,
what the fuck is going on with you, man?
I'm like that now.
Yeah.
So I get in there and we're getting going and I start, you know,
doing that and then I start to kiss down the stomach thing.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, classic move.
Wait, wait, this is, you've told this.
Yeah, I've told this.
And I get all the way down close to where you would get and then I went right back up.
But this is, I thought that was with the girl who you sucked as titty.
No, no, no.
Well, I did that to her too, but this one I did.
I remember I did it like three times.
So anyway, this was your move was to get down close to the pussy and then.
It was called teased.
You were a bit of it.
You were a bit of a teaser.
I was a bit of a pussy tease.
So anyway, I get home.
Pussy tease.
I get back home from work or wherever.
By the way, it's like 9 a.m.
I love it.
This is just like the first thing I do in the day.
I woke up it.
I mean, I got home and this guy, Nick was like.
Like Angie stopped by and I was like, oh, I don't want four.
You know what I mean?
He's like to tell us that she has AIDS.
And that was Nick's sense of humor.
Yeah.
That was Nick's kind of way of doing a joke.
That is funny.
I mean, Liz did not let up.
Nobody told me it was a joke for a while.
Oh, well, yeah.
That's what makes a good joke.
Like 45 minutes.
So that that is.
I'm like, I got to.
go home. I go home and sit in my room. You thought you had AIDS. Did you already tell them,
was it like a classic prank where you never even said you had sex with her, but they knew that
they knew because it was a big event that day for me as the leader of a group of friends.
In a way, it was like all of them had sex also. Exactly. That is kind of the way when you're like
a teenager and your friend has sex, you kind of feel like we all got in a little bit. But yeah,
yeah. So yeah, it was a big deal. Like we went over to my friend Sean's house.
and watch MTV a little bit.
Then we went through the drive-through.
Oh, that's interesting.
He was watching non...
Going to Sean's house and watching non-pornographic materials.
Well, MTV, honestly, like, might as well be porno sometimes, right?
With what's on there.
Hey, good points.
You don't even do music anymore.
Honestly, you know what?
That brings us back to what we're talking about.
Remember when MTV used to have actual music on there?
And remember when much music...
The answer for music.
Because now it stands for masturbation, I think.
I think it does, yeah.
So anyway, this is from the nostalgia community on Reddit.
Oh, my God.
Hey, guys, remember YouTube?
Yeah, dude, I use it.
No, you don't.
But this is going around because they changed the YouTube layout again slightly.
Yes.
And people are like freaking out.
Yeah.
So this is YouTube's first homepage back in 2005.
And the subject line of this is YouTube's first homepage back in 2005, better times.
So, and I wonder if they mean just like,
like this reminds me of 2005, which was better times,
or if they actually mean that they enjoyed using that YouTube interface bet?
It's got to be the first thing, because the UI and the interface is not good.
It's not good.
You wouldn't want to go back to that at all.
Also, back then, you could only upload 10 minute videos.
I remember watching like full episodes of South Park.
You have to watch an hour.
You'd have to watch 10 minutes of it, then another 10 minutes of it, and like one minute.
Oh, yeah, that little one minute after.
I remember those little one minute videos that you'd have to watch if you want to watch it.
No one knows what it's like. Gen.
Gen Alpha.
They don't know what it's like now.
They don't know.
Well, this guy.
Watch South Park on their phones.
This guy does no influence.
Gen Z trying to cancel Eminem?
Oh, hell no.
I didn't do any M&M stuff and I'm going to tell you why, because the next music specific
episode we do is Eminem guys.
Oh, my God.
Like it's in my mind to do it.
I'm just waiting for the time because we've done a few.
That's an awfully hot coffee pot.
Remember that?
Remember that's an awfully hot coffee pot?
when he took down Donald Trump.
Oh, shit.
I remember.
He needs to do that again.
He needs to stop Donald Trump
with the power of freestyle rap.
He says he's orange in that,
I believe.
That was the first time when it was ever noticed.
He says, and he's orange.
Yeah, and that was the first time anyone noticed it.
Everyone before that was like,
well, he looks like a normal kind of,
and then everyone's like, wait a second.
Eminem might be.
I don't watch them being like,
why is Eminem in this parking garage?
Okay.
Yeah, well, why is Dennis Leary in this,
why is Dennis Lerry in his burned out building?
We just watch.
Like, they would just put people.
So this guy goes,
it's gritty.
No influencers,
no money,
just passionate people having fun.
I'm sorry.
Can I apologize?
I was going to say that.
Yeah,
of course.
I said,
I didn't mean a joke.
I just said gritty.
Like,
it's gritty.
Like,
it's a gritty scene.
But I literally looked at Stefan
and I was like,
well,
he's just not going to let that fast fall go by.
And I just knew he wasn't going to be able to stop himself from saying.
Gritty is the number two prominent leftists in the country.
Do you guys know who number one is?
You.
Yep.
Yep.
big time known leftist i was at the no king's march so anyway this guy goes back when the comments
section was full of insight rather than comedians you remember well here can i can i push back on
that comedians comedians themselves are full of insight yeah yeah they're modern day truth tellers
yeah no honestly if you want to get the most insight you're gonna want all you want all open mic
comedians in your comments they will tell you what's up it's funny when they say it's
funny when they say modern day truth tellers.
Like who is the old truth teller?
And in a way, what I'm doing right now,
this is truth telling. This is comics.
The jester is the old time.
Oh, I guess that's true.
With the hat.
Yeah.
When I say jester, I mean the one with the hat.
Not the scary one.
Yeah.
The scary one.
So this guy goes.
There's a jester movie coming out.
I don't know if you saw that.
I saw that.
And I was like, maybe it's about the jester.
Do you think possibly I've seen that?
Or you maybe 100 people sent it to me?
I'm sure they have.
Yeah.
Back in the days before.
Google got their greedy hands on it and turned it into screw tube.
Screw tube.
Okay.
Nice.
I've never heard that.
I'd sign up for that.
So listen, I'm, I'm, I'm.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah, sure.
Yeah, yeah.
Screwing.
You're not even allowed to show screwing on YouTube.
But I think they mean that they're, they're somehow getting screwed by YouTube.
And I feel like whenever anyone's complaining about YouTube, it's usually like, a lot
of times it's like a racist guy who got their comment deleted or something.
Yeah.
But like, it's weird because if you go to YouTube, like the algorithm is like famously very,
very right leaning.
It's very hard to get.
You see some really nasty comments on there.
Yeah.
Oh,
that's the thing.
When he said the comments are full of insight,
it's like,
I didn't they have like the N word in every comment section on YouTube for a
long time.
Yeah.
Listen,
they're not good now.
I guess what they do,
maybe what they're referring to is one thing that is like a lot of copy pasta in,
in like the replies of YouTube stuff now and a lot of,
which is really funny to me,
but I don't think it's meant in a humorous way
but like when you see like just like a love song or like
Oh my God.
There's like a hundred,
every comment is just like my wife was like fucking about to honor death bed
and I used to sing this song to her every night.
It's a bunch of weird.
I don't know why they're doing it.
Like it's all they're obviously fake stories.
I don't know what the end game is.
I think they just want the engagement or whatever.
They just want up votes but I don't,
you don't get money for up votes, right?
I was listening to this song.
This is a comment in the YouTube thing for a song.
I was listening to this song when I almost ate my girlfriend,
and Angie's pussy and I found out she had AIDS.
Oh, that was
black by Pearl Jam.
Anyway,
I was on,
when I went to our nostalgia,
one of the top things was who played with the Ouija board
when they were a kid?
Now, listen.
This has to be such a fucking brutal subreddit.
Because I was going to say when I found out,
well, first of all,
I saw you post on Blue Sky.
I'm doing research for R slash nostalgia guys.
And I knew I was coming on this Monday,
obviously,
This is like the most depressing shit I've ever seen.
This is so sad.
Oh, we're not to that yet.
Oh, no, I know.
But I was like, I'm sure this is my, my episode topic.
But also like, it's all of the guys you, you guys look at are kind of nostalgia guys in a way, right?
Not like this, man.
Not not in the same like, I mean, it just, it's, it's tough for me because it's like,
I got a pretty cool, easy job.
You know what I mean?
So it is easy for me to say, like, I hate.
being a kid and I'm having more fun than ever now.
Sure.
Because I can.
You know what I mean?
I'm a very lucky adult.
So I get it.
But I also just think like it's sad to sit around and think about when you were a teenager.
You know what I mean?
The older you get the sadder.
I know.
It's just really depressing to me to think of a guy that's like 55 and he's thinking about
when he was 14 and just be like, oh man, what a time that was.
Yeah, I think that there's like, I think it's good to be nostalgic sometimes, obviously, right?
I think that there's like having a little bit of that every now and then and being like, oh, man, like seeing something and being like,
oh, that reminds me of that time, you know, when I was like 14 years old at the water park and, oh, what a nice little, like.
Looking at old photos.
Yeah, exactly.
Like having that.
There's healthy nostalgia.
There's healthy nostalgia.
But it's the people who are like pining for that time or whatever where they're just like, oh, I want to go back so badly.
That's where it becomes, where it starts to become sad, I think.
This guy goes, I was always too scared as a kid to play along.
It was in the South during the later years of the satanic panic,
a culture that thrived on deeply embedded fear of almost everything.
But Ouija and his ilk, especially.
I've still never fooled around with one, but I'm deeply curious and interested.
Oh, man, an adult, an adult getting into the Ouija because they weren't able to and they were younger.
Yeah, it's so funny.
He's nostalgic for a thing he didn't do.
Yeah.
I mean, the thing I would be, I remember one of the greatest grown-up things that happened to me.
You guys are going to think this is stupid.
One of the best grown up.
No, we want.
One of the best things that let me know I was like actually grown up.
Yeah.
Was just sitting on my couch smoking a cigarette.
In my living room, on my couch, watching TV, smoking cigarettes.
Like that was just the great.
And I have, you know, obviously that's a bad idea.
it's like not good
but there was a period of time where I did it
and it was just like oh this is the life
man that's right did you ever do the thing
we did in college we did the classic
thing of like putting like cans and bottles up on
the mantle throughout the year
did you do that? Yes we
had like all the
all the uh the liquor bottles
that we drank. This guy goes
I would avoid them. I don't know
how but they work
use
yeah I can't explain it
but these are 100%
true demons.
That guy has that,
that guy has that exact opinion
about so many things.
He thinks that about computers as well,
probably.
Yeah, yeah.
He goes,
used one at a vacation home
with some cousins when we were kids.
Threw it out shortly after.
This guy goes,
me,
my aunt bought,
brought one of my grandma's house.
Biggest mistake.
We opened a fucking portal
and my grandma's house
was never the same.
Oh,
yeah.
Nothing to do you mean?
My grandma's house
was never the same.
same.
Yeah, I will...
There's a portal there, one thing.
I guess that's part of it.
Don't go into the basement.
Yeah, there's a pretty significant portal there that we opened up with a Ouija board last summer.
The rest of the house is fine.
The rest of the house is fine.
Every now and then, it'll, like, do a little pulsating thing or whatever, but you really
just want to stay out of that.
You can hear the portal, but it does sort of sound like a washing machine.
He goes, nothing demonic, but deceased relative sure as hell made their presence known.
I was only eight years old and seeing random objects moving my grandma's house
messed me up.
You can't pay me enough to play with those boards today.
So we did play with them.
And I'm going to be honest with you.
I pushed the thing because I figured nobody else is going to do it.
Yeah, that's what you have to do.
People have raised this point before.
I think there's a good standup bit about it.
But just the idea that there's this like demonic like thing, you can you can open a portal
to hell or whatever.
and it's made by like Milton Bradley.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's the most believable part in my opinion.
I'm a real conspiracy kind of guy, you know.
Yeah.
This guy goes, it's real.
You call upon spirits and you'll pay the consequences of invoking.
It's like opening a portal for any spirit or spirits to enter.
You're asking for trouble.
And I would highly advise not to mess around with this.
If you're interested in pressing your luck, then you'll experience what it's like
to be possibly tortured by an even.
evil spirit, not worth the risk, in my opinion.
I'm being tortured by an evil spirit.
Yeah, I mean, because that seems like, like, that's the game.
You're right, it is not worth the risk if that's what's going to happen, because it's
like there's not an alternative where you become friends with the demon, right?
There's not like a good alternative.
Yeah, I guess like if, if you were playing like hungry, hungry hippos and there was like a
20% chance you were going to burn in hell forever.
I would probably just play don't wake daddy instead, you know?
That's what I would play.
I mean, listen.
You guys ever play?
You guys ever play Lupin Louis?
Remember that shit?
Never played loop and loo?
What were the ones I played when, like the board games?
I played sorry.
Sorry was great.
Sorry was great.
I played Monopoly.
Trouble was fun.
Trouble was good.
Was trouble the one with the with the bubble?
Pop-a-matic bottle.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, we didn't play board games.
Bottle, yeah.
Yeah, he did say Bottle.
We didn't play board games.
And I specifically remember somebody calling them gay.
So like, I don't know which guy it was.
And I was like, let's just play cards.
Can somebody please put together a list.
of things that Brian's friends said were gay.
I would love to see because it's becoming a pretty comprehensive list.
I went to the 90s nostalgia Facebook page, and Mandy asked the question.
She goes, let's go back in time.
You're 16 and it's Friday night.
What are you doing?
Okay, let's answer this question.
Driving around and my friend's Nova, smoking weed and doing acid.
You could smoke weed.
So you're hotboxing the trunk?
or?
I was it drunk.
There were four of us.
It was me,
Aaron,
Nate and Steve.
God,
what a great night out
for you when there's only four.
Fuck you,
man.
It's me,
Aaron,
Nate and Steve.
Every Friday,
we'd buy a quarter
ounce of weed
and we'd just go
driving around.
Growth port.
Smoking weed.
You know what I mean?
Yeah,
that's not that's not that.
I'm trying to think that
that would be something
we would possibly do as well.
That's not a crazy idea
for a 16,
like a Friday.
Now I would say,
maybe I'd be drinking though.
I'd be drinking Bolskaya vodka, perhaps.
Wow.
A Mickey of Bolskaya vodka, probably with my friend Mish, rest in peace to Mish.
But he and I would be-
Rest and peace to Aaron, by the way.
Rest and peace to Aaron as well.
Also, Nick, by the way, from earlier.
Yeah.
Anyone else or?
Let me just think if there's anybody in my story as well that's deceased.
No, that's going to be the only, just Mish in my story.
But yeah, we would maybe be, him and I like to drink a,
Mickey of Ball Sky every now and then and go on
the dike and everyone laughs, but
it's a place.
But it's a place out
in the marshland out on the water
and we would go out there and just play. Is it
Steveston? Yeah, and Steveston.
We watched, Irene and I watched scary
movie last night and
Steveston very prominent in that.
Oh yeah, they filmed a lot of stuff in Stevens
and I've told this before. And I would say basically
everything in that movie has not aged well.
Oh, yeah. I agree.
I watched it for a mini-serie.
series not too long ago.
There's definitely some funny bits, but like,
yeah, it's like crazy going back and watching it.
All those movies were like that, man.
When I watched disaster movie, I couldn't even fucking believe what I was seeing.
Yeah.
Most of the jokes are just like, this guy is a gay guy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So what did you do on Friday night, Stefan?
A little bit nerdyer.
Playing Nintendo.
Well, I would say this would be me and my friends, a couple large domino's pizzas,
a couple two liters of Coke and some Halo 2.
Yeah, that's fair.
That's fair, but you wouldn't be getting high at all 16 or anything.
No, I didn't start smoking weed until college.
Yeah.
And then no drinking either.
You guys, 16 is still a little bit on the cusp.
I was not everyone's.
I would start drinking when I was like 17, I think.
Yeah, yeah.
I think I'm at 11.
I've tried to think maybe 14, 15 was the first time I drank.
But at 16, I would have been definitely, again, we had our fake IDs because we're
born in 1984 and we could scratch them in 1981.
So as soon as you turn 16, you're able to gamble and drink.
and all that.
I mean, the classic,
the classic,
Halo related story
I always tell on,
on Go Off Kings
is figuring out that,
because you know,
the original Xbox controller
was like big.
Yeah.
And it,
vibrated a lot.
So what I would do is I would,
I would make,
I would,
yeah.
Yeah,
it literally would.
In the first Halo,
I would make a custom
multiplayer game
where it was like just me
and I'd get in the back
of the wartog
and just like fire the turret.
Cruze it around.
Put the controller,
put the controller on my,
on my cock.
that's smart though
that's like a early
oh when I was young I came up
with a sex toy
okay yeah this guy goes
getting foobar and laid
which uh fucked up beyond all recognition
for anyone who doesn't know
horseback riding on my horse
fuck
on a Friday night
whatever this guy's obviously like rancher
like you know what I mean
he lives out in the country
he's not like yeah
drinking a six pack of Zima
Sorry, Mom.
Is Zima has alcohol in it?
Oh, yeah, it was like clear alcohol.
It's like a wind cooler or?
It was a malt liquor, but it was clear and you would put a jolly rancher in it and it would make it taste good because I drink so much.
Yeah, I remember it was really hot for a while.
It was like the number one drink.
And then it would get made fun of a little bit by like the beer drinkers.
They would make fun of Zima.
Yeah, yeah.
This guy goes headed to work in the cotton mill.
Okay.
And then finally, he's got a night job, but that's not.
I mean, listen, I'll be honest with you, man.
You got to recognize that's not what they're looking for in this.
I know what people were doing for fun.
Yeah.
Just see the thing that you did on your night off.
Just pretend it was your Friday or whatever.
Your Friday is like Monday or something.
Yeah.
Weekends, you know?
I'm glad you brought that up because Will did have fun.
And I'm going to read his post here.
Okay.
Okay.
Going to the mall or movies to make out or finger some kitty.
Oh, Jesus.
I mean, I know you're also a kid in the scenario, but still you're not in that.
Okay, I, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's like, come on.
That sounds.
That sounds, I mean, listen.
That's still gross.
Still gross.
Still.
Yeah.
Insangely gross words to say.
Yeah.
Fingers.
If you're a kid, you can, you can say it.
Yeah.
But it's, yeah.
I'm finger.
Me's kitty.
Oh, mama me.
I'm going to use that all the time now.
I would say,
I would say, again, because of the, just because of the, like,
it does sound like you're saying child.
Yeah.
Because like when we first started.
to my wife.
Okay.
Well, that's, okay.
I'll whisper it in her ear when we lay down in bed.
Mind if I finger some of your kitty.
You're not actually going to do that.
You don't know that.
No, I do.
She would love it.
She would love it.
I would push back on that a little bit, I think.
I would.
This guy, 2000s nostalgia.
If you could bring back one thing from the 2000s, what would it be?
First guy goes, mutual respect and cooperation in politics.
Shut the.
Shut on.
You, you fucking loser.
Fuck you.
Nerd.
Beat the shit out of you if I see you.
That's so funny to say that.
It is about the 2000s.
It is really, yeah.
2004 was so brutal, man.
Oh my God.
They don't even think about how 2004 was like.
That election was fucking nuts.
Oh, it's insane.
Yeah.
And then 2008, like it was all fucking crazy.
2001, at the end of 2001, it got pretty funny.
I guess, I guess what he said?
thing is like is like the the Glenn Beck thing of like doesn't he want it to be like nine 12 something
where it's like the nation came together yeah the nation came together to hate brown people
like that's what he's talking about right next guy goes accountability for one's actions again
what did we live through the same 2000s i don't know but then the next guy says gogerts yeah there
we see that's what i'm talking about yeah yeah you guys ever cut your mouth on a goger
Of course.
That comes up, oh my God.
Yeah.
I just read somebody talking about the popsicles.
Yeah.
Remember when you cut your mouth on a pop.
We would call them breezes.
You call them ice pops or freeze pops or something, Brian?
Yeah, we have freezes.
Mr. Freeze, Freezes.
That was a huge thing, Stefan.
You would have a great.
What was your favorite flavor, Chris?
I was a blue raspberry guy.
I was about to say blue.
That's 90s.
That's 90s.
That's 90s is hell right there.
Blue started in the 90s.
We did.
I think you're right.
I remember it.
I was 12 years old.
and I remember blue.
This guy goes...
He's right about blue starting in the night.
But Mr. Freeze,
that was a huge problem
with the freezes of cutting the sides of your mouth.
It was so sharp.
Because you'd have to cut it with scissors, right?
Yeah.
To open it up.
Yeah,
back when we were tough,
Steph,
back when we would cut our lips up a little bit
if we wanted a freezy.
Now they're kidding.
So coddled with their freezy pops.
Well,
it's all soft on the side.
It's all soft on the side.
Yeah, it's 100% made out of fabric now for some reason.
It's almost comfortable to rub it on it.
It's honestly.
Yeah, it's like, it's like made with like a silk kind of.
It's like a loom.
You're mommy and daddy to cut up your freezy for you now.
Yeah, here's another one.
Here's another guy.
This is every decade from the 50s.
Okay.
To the 2010s.
This is a Facebook group or this is?
Well, no, I'm saying that like this comment shows up every decade.
Oh, I see.
Okay.
From the 1940s to the 2010.
Can I guess what the comment is?
Yep.
I used to drink out of the hose.
That's one of them, but no.
Okay.
Nice. Nice guess.
This is the other one.
Okay.
Like,
everybody's yelling at their,
you want another guess?
What is it like?
I used to play outside.
Until?
Until we got like yelled at to come home or whatever?
No,
children knowing to come back when the streetlights come on.
Oh,
yeah.
Yeah.
That is every,
they love it.
This guy goes,
just send me back to 1990.
I'll shadow my younger self and be the father he always needed.
I don't care about anything.
Wait, wait, wait.
I'll be my dad.
I'll be my own dad.
I want to go back and become his own dad.
It's so funny to just post that on like a Facebook group where,
ostensible,
you don't know anyone in the group.
Oh,
this is on Reddit though,
right?
Oh,
this is Facebook.
This is Facebook.
Oh, this is Facebook.
This is Facebook with his real name.
And you're just like really opening up where you're like,
yeah,
I didn't have a dad.
I would love to be my own father and go back in time and father myself.
Just send me back to 1990 and let me be my own dad.
I don't know if that's too much that.
yeah i don't want to be myself again like that would be fucked up i want to go back in my current
state and father myself as a young child is this the sad stuff brian or does it get sad i mean it does
this guy because i'll tell him it's going to be okay and he's going to make a difference someday
uh this guy goes red box go back in time yeah it's kind of a time loop thing yeah it's kind of a
looper type situation now i want to make this he here's my question is he going to fuck his mom
Oh, that's a really good bit is to go back in time to father yourself and you're already there and you fuck your mom anyway.
Because she's like, oh, you treat my son so nice.
You want to move in and fuck.
And then she leaves your dad because he's a bad dad.
Yeah, because are you your dad?
It depends on where in the loop it's getting picked up and stuff because you may not.
You're like eight years old at this point.
So you already exist.
You exist.
I know, but I'm just saying when you go back, are you your dad or are you a different guy?
You're just a guy.
You're just a different guy.
You just meet her out at like a karaoke thing.
And you're just like,
hey,
what's up?
You know?
You just like take her home or whatever.
Yeah.
But it's so you can get access to you.
Exactly.
Yeah.
Oh,
because you want to be in your,
in your,
in your,
classic situation of fucking your own mom
so you can raise yourself.
You want to be in your own life,
obviously.
And it's like it's the only way to do it.
The only way to be close enough to yourself
to really make an impact is to fuck your own.
I'm going to buy the movie rights to this comment.
Contact this guy
By the moon
This guy goes red box
Ah
Okay
Remember red box?
I think everyone
hated that though
I hated it
I don't think
I never liked it
J.F I think
Really?
Oh that's the first
That's the first person
Because I've never ever
I've never heard anybody
being like
Oh red box is so good
I don't think they were that common
up here Chris
Were they like they were
They were everywhere down here
Brother
We definitely had them
Oh we had Gord box
obviously
Yeah we had Gord box
Which is a different
Hey, Bud box, eh?
Hey.
Yeah, come on in.
Grab a Canadian bacon or whatever.
You want to rent it for seven days or whatever?
Go ahead, bud.
I'll say this.
People love the Cancon now.
We have a Canadian guy who smokes weed and reviews stuff, Stefan.
And he's like, he's from Prince Albert, Saskatchew and he's super Canadian.
The Prince Albert Raiders.
Shout out to the Prince Albert Raiders.
Shout out to the WHL team, the Prince Albert Raiders.
He's a big hockey fan, Stefan.
and he wears a different jersey in every...
Have you seen the old Prince Albert Raiders jersey?
No, I'm sure he wears it in one of his videos.
Do you guys know what it is?
It's like the most racist logo I've ever seen.
Oh, he might not.
Then this guy's nice.
This guy goes, this guy goes common sense.
I hear that one a lot, like bringing back common sense.
A lot of the, yeah.
This person says world peace, which is insane.
Wait, that was a thing.
that he's saying that that happened
back into 2000s
that's like one of the most peaceful decades of all time
September 13th September 13th
2001 there was world peace
September 12th was a bit rough
but September 13th everybody came together
I just sent you guys the Prince Albert Raiders
logo if you want to look at it
how about this one
shopping malls pizza hut
and no smartphones and then this guy
goes real TV shows and movies and cartoons
if you know you know
everyone's looking down at their smartphones
do you see the logo I just looked at
the logo and it's uh it's actually racist i wasn't expecting that type of racism
no i know it was a different kind of racism that it's different than the type they go check it
out if you want to see that uh so this person says uh blockbusters which is a common one people
like to go into blockbusters let me ask you guys this kind of uh sequel to the earlier question and
we love sequels because we're 90s kids um but did you when you went to the blockbuster on a
friday or saturday night what were you guys renting well first off i didn't go to a oh did you go to rogers
into Rogers video. Rogers video, which is run by the horrible, uh, corporation. We love Rogers on
this show, eh? Wow. We actually hate Rogers. We love Rogers and Scotia Bank on this. Well, we like
Scotia Bank. We don't mind the Scotia Bank. We don't mind the Scosh as much, but we hate Rogers.
Definitely. Roger sucks. Tell us sucks as well. But I would be renting, fuck tell us. This is what I,
uh, tell us doing pretty decent job with my internet. But let's, um, the, what am I getting at Rogers video? Now,
this is if it's not just a first run movie then what I was actually renting a lot of on VHS was
Monty Python seasons and UFC events wow those were the two things I was like really into
because they had all the UFC events the early ones so I would rent those was that was before it was
UFC was there was a blood sport back then it was insane I was watching like the tank abit like
you know UFC 1 and shit where they were the guy getting punched in his dick a bunch of times
yeah yeah yeah let me tell you my my classic go-to rentals like the rush hour movies
rush out like the first one and the second one you know what i you know what i rented a lot blue streak
martin law i used to watch that movie i love like it was on tv i love that yeah very funny here's one
here's a meme here it says brian what about you yeah what about you me i was always trying to rent
something had titties but wasn't like obvious that i was renting a titty movie you know what you
go mr skin would you go to mr skin that was smart i didn't do this pre mr skinn's been around
for a while.
I guess.
Oh, God.
He's been around since like 2009.
He's one of the first internet websites was Mr.
Skin.
So this is a meme.
They say,
they say don't live in the past,
but the past had better cars,
music's and chicks.
And that would be,
they were playing the most insane loop of Paradise City,
where it's just,
take me down to the Paradise City
where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.
Take me down.
Oh, it just lives that.
Just that.
It was the most insane loop I've ever heard.
I couldn't figure it out.
This guy goes, now we have nine second code red Shelby Mustangs,
1,100 horsepower corvettes,
Romstein, Nightwish, and Sabatons.
All still good if you look.
Okay.
I mean, that's somebody who's like trying to inject some common sense into this to be like,
hey.
There's still good stuff out there's still a lot of good stuff.
There's a lot of bad stuff now.
So there's a lot of bad stuff,
but there is still good stuff.
This guy goes, today's cars,
you can't tell the difference
between a Mercedes and a Toyota Celica.
Yeah, he can.
I mean, I do know what he's,
I do understand what they're saying, though,
is that like the cars do look more generic now,
definitely.
This guy goes,
and he's got an American flag for his avatar,
so you're already like nervous.
Here comes a good opinion.
He goes, I agree.
Cars looked like cars should look,
and they were more reliable.
Cars and trucks had carburetors
instead of expensive throttle bodies.
Fuel pumps were on the side of the engine,
not inside the gas tank,
and no computers and cars and trucks back then.
Times were better back then.
Dating was simple with a movie and pizza.
Girls didn't have tattoos or piercings.
Good memories, though.
The last one's kind of weird.
He is a problem with...
They all do.
The old guys hate women having tattoos and piercing.
But women have had tattoos and piercings for a long time.
I feel like at this point.
Yeah.
I think it's just more open as in like,
you know what I'm like it's more open as in like women maybe had smaller tattoos that
were hidden in the past.
I understand.
They were just,
they just want a more traditional.
They want like a woman who's like a housewife who's at home.
Yeah.
And this guy goes and your parent.
I love this guy.
This is,
this is like almost a common sense.
Like it's almost a good opinion.
And then it ain't the last word of it just makes everything bad.
And your parents say that about their cars.
Oh, wait.
I got to read it right.
I'm sorry.
And your parents say that about their cars, music and broads.
Ah, okay.
Yeah.
Broads.
This guy goes darn Skippy.
You couldn't get any of the chicks back in the day in today's cars,
but you sure is fire would get all today's girls in those classic cars.
Ah, good point.
He's saying you could, if you, well, I don't know.
I think if you drove up in a futuristic car.
If you drove up in a super futuristic car,
like 1979,
electric car.
Fucking,
you know,
yeah.
I think what he's saying
is that you would get
dragged out of the car
and killed in the streets
is what it seems to be the case.
They might be like,
who are future man.
Like,
you know,
like,
you know,
like it's a future man.
Driving a Toyota
Selaica in 1975
and everybody
chasing you down with pitchfork.
Let's take a look at
one of the grossest things, one of the more gross things.
Okay, yeah, I got to get y'all.
So anyway, this is from Nistalgia World on Facebook.
I'm going to share the post with you guys just so you can see it.
Kelly Kapowski or Topanga Lawrence.
Oh, the comments on this are going to be really bad.
There'll be tasteful.
Now, listen, I can tell you, I was of the age where this was a debate in my mind when I was younger.
and I was firmly in the Kelly Kapowski.
I was such a big fan of Saved by the Bell.
It was like in my childhood.
That was my show.
I loved Zach Morris.
I thought he was the funniest guy ever.
I didn't watch either show.
Oh, I was more of a Thomas the Tank Engine.
You're younger than I am, Stefan, too.
So I think that little bit boy meets world back when I was a kid.
Yeah, boy meets world I was into, but it was for me, it was all about Kelly Kobusky.
And I will say when I was a kid, I was really like I thought she was.
was the best girl.
Constantly furiously masturbating.
I don't think I was too young to be furiously masturbating.
Honestly, I think I was just like, wow, what an absolute babe.
Life was all I asked.
Yeah, my first one like that was Cameron Diaz and the mask.
Oh my God.
I think it just came out.
And I was like, this is fucking insane.
I was 10 years old when that came out.
So again, like that was, you know, I wasn't yet furiously masturbating to it.
But I was like, that's the most beautiful woman.
I was like, get out of my brain, Kelly Kopposky.
We've got to do.
Where do you guys stand on Jessica Rabbit and Lola Bunny?
I couldn't do it.
I couldn't do cartoons.
I was like, whatever.
I was like, you're a babe.
I mean, I didn't understand really anything at that point.
I was just like babe, female form.
It just looks like a babe.
I just like cartoons.
I stopped liking cartoons super early because I was like that's not what grownups.
You know what I mean?
You wouldn't do it.
You've never done the Lola Bunny challenge, Brian?
I've never, I've, I've, it's just cartoons or cartoons.
Like I said, I wanted to be an adult like really, like when I was like seven, I remember.
Well, there's cartoons for adults.
Yeah.
There's a lot of cartoons where they're, they're, I don't believe in it.
But they have jokes for adults in them.
But I don't know if you've seen the family guy before.
Oh, I love this guy goes, Kelly wore light makeup and normally was fully clothed.
Okay.
When she did wear us, I don't think she wore light makeup.
She was on a television show.
I don't also think it's not surprised.
that she was fully closed.
Yeah, she was a child.
She was a teenager and they were in high school in it.
So yeah, that makes sense.
But she also, I think she was in television makeup as well.
Because when she did wear a swimsuit, they normally put her in a one piece bathing suit.
She was thoughtful, supportive, soft spoken, always positive in a team player in the goals of
their friend group.
It was Kelly for the win with me.
Topanga had a silly name and I couldn't see myself saying that I couldn't see myself saying
and she looked cartoonish.
I preferred the girl next door.
Look that Kelly had.
So Kelly.
Sorry, Topanga.
Sorry, Topanga.
This 45-year-old, smelly, sweaty, mess of a man, just could not see himself saying
your name in bed.
This guy goes, I've never seen Topanga Lawrence and her show.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
Good comment.
I mean, that's what I love about Facebook.
I'll say this.
One of my favorite Facebook things is the guy that has.
nothing to say, but has to post.
Like, everybody's like that now, right?
Like, everybody that does a lot of posting and stuff really doesn't have anything to say.
Well, when I used to be, like, actually verified on Twitter and if a post, like, got
viral or whatever, like, people would start replying me being like, I don't know, why are you
verified?
I don't know who you are.
And then I'd look at their page or whatever, and I'd be like, man, if you were like a
fan of mine, I would fucking kill myself.
I'm glad you don't know who I am.
This guy goes, Kelly got me on son-in-law.
She was beautiful acting in that movie.
I didn't know she was in that.
That Polly Shore movie?
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
Oh, this guy goes.
Listen, I do remember loving the movie Son-in-law.
I was a huge Polly Shorehead when I was a child.
I loved Biodome and all those.
Me too.
I'm more of a fan of his recent output.
What is he doing nowadays?
It's kind of puttering around his kitchen.
I seen him on Kill Tony one time and he seemed to sort of not get the vibe of the show.
Oh my God
What was the movie he did where I remember
Chris you posted a picture of it and he was like
Looking directly at the camera
I forgot I watched that entire movie he was like the it was like the pool guest or something
Where he lived in the pool uh like some person's like pool house or whatever
And he was trying to recapture the Pauly Shore magic
Yeah and there was a scene where he looked straight down the barrel for two to three seconds
It was fucked
This guy goes they had the craziest names
Who?
you know that is true
and Topanga Lawrence
I mean Kelly Kapowski is
is a kind of a
you know Kapowski I feel like is a name
maybe it's like like an Eastern
European name or something
well check out Stevens reply
I think you're gonna like this
okay is this even a question
Topanga make you want to be a real
old fashioned man that makes and takes
care of everything and she don't have to worry
about nothing but being there for you
what
well I think he'd say that
Kelly is a little headstrong
and might want to get out, like, you know, she might want to have her own career or something.
She's a little wild.
Yeah, which I don't really think is true necessarily.
I don't think her character was ever sort of painted that way.
So it's just that these guys posting these comments where it's like, I would love to marry this child.
They're all old.
And it's like, to banca make me want to be a better man is such a funny thing to say.
Yeah, I mean, it is true, DeVitt because it's like, this is a post meant for people to say,
you know, when you were the same age as these girls,
which one did you go for?
They're giving you an out, basically.
But then there's all these guys who are coming in like,
well, I'm 55 years old now.
This is the first time seeing of them, really.
I looked into them a bit, but this is the one I want.
This is a TV show?
They're from a TV show?
Or these are people?
Dave says, Topanga.
I used to work at a McDonald's and there was a lady who worked there also.
She was the double for Topanga.
Oh, okay.
Wow.
I mean, listen, I do, that makes a little bit of,
sense, right? Where it's just like, oh, that one is
Tabanga because I knew somebody who looked almost
like her and I got to like interact with her
and had a crush on her or whatever. That kind of
makes sense. Finally, this guy goes
two totally different kind of girls.
Kelly was more attention seeking and Topanga
didn't care whatsoever about attention.
She was smart and beautiful and funny
in the younger years, but I loved
both shows so much. And then hashtag
good TV, hashtag positive shows for youth.
Can you click on that hashtag?
I showed up.
Well, it's a screen grab, I guess.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I tried to show this to Chris and he got mad at me.
So I'm just going to show the picture of it.
Okay.
These are these AI videos, Stefan.
Yeah, no, these are so fucking bad, dude.
I talked about you earlier.
I talked about this to you earlier.
And by the way, look at the background.
It says Zipin.
So that, and well, that's supposed to be queen, I think, on the left, maybe.
Yeah, but it's 14.
And then, yeah, it's supposed to be Led Zeppelin.
And it's supposed to be physical graffiti.
and it says Zepen Grafidi.
And then I can't figure out what the bottom left one is,
but it says Sycux.
Biffie. B-F-I-T-I-E-I.
Yeah.
You know, sick-hucks buffitti.
Yeah.
Well, that could be physical graffiti as well, I guess.
But I mean, this looks real.
This is not real, you're telling me?
This is AI.
Yeah.
And what they are is they say, when the world was better.
And this one says 1975.
None of us were around in 1975.
So let's see what people.
think about that. This guy goes, now parents call you on the iPhone to come home. Then parents
hollered out the door for you. Yeah. I mean, it does seem like with the iPhone thing, the beauty of
that is you can go a little farther away though. Yeah. Yeah. It's nice. This guy goes,
it was the greatest time except for Jimmy Carter. I love that. You know, politics into it. Yeah,
I love politics, like old politics where it's just like, I don't know enough about it. You know, I don't
really know the history of it well enough, but except Carter. I just for some reason, I love hearing
people being like, yeah, Nixon probably. Also, Jimmy Carter wasn't president in 1975. No, I don't
think so. I think he was maybe had a 70 job. I guess he was maybe running. Yeah, he was like a yeah,
he might have been a governor or he might have been like in the in the cabinet even or something.
He's in the political world, I guess at that point. This guy goes, I had a super great time for years in the
80. Now on the phone all day, getting overweight. And now worry all day what people think about
you and always texting that that that is the high life just texting boring ass hell
I know we joked about these guys being cavemen before but they really are talking and
posting like cavemen they might have English second language I feel like probably or it's
being translated or something like that well I think a lot of the times it's uh it's like
voice to text oh yeah that could be it too um Dwayne the guy we see we we I guess we watch him
on Goff King sometimes like the crazy old guy from yeah Arland Texas he he he he will
have posts on Twitter where it just makes no sense unless you're like, oh, he must have been doing
voice to text here. He had one where he was talking to some lady talking about going down on her
and then it ended with like, I'm going to keep you going until birth of smell.
Yeah. Old people do love to do voice to text. Yeah. Yeah. And it just makes zero sense.
This guy goes, I was learning Bible and praying low rider trike and bike pedal.
Is that last one, is the last one maybe a Google search?
I was learning by, oh, this guy goes, when cars were real cars, not granny cars.
Now that, I don't want to understand.
Granny cars, you know.
Well, because they're not as, they're not as like big and loud, I guess.
But they still do make big loud ones.
They do, yeah.
Let's move to the future again, guys, something we all live through.
Okay.
A few days ago, marked 10 years since the dress debate.
Oh, Jesus.
Which one was this?
or no well I think this is what what color is this damn dress right is it blue and is this
freaking black or yeah well it's blue and black obviously it's blue and black moving no we're
not going to argue it it's blue and black it's obviously blue and black we're not going to make
any arguments this guy goes I see it as light blue and gold and his person replies he goes yeah
I see light blue and an ugly greenish gold and he goes same I thought I was the only one there
happened to conversation I thought I was the only one is so funny for a thing that like took
over the internet for like a fucking month and everyone had an opinion on it.
I thought I was the only one who thought it was blue.
I thought I was.
Like a billion people thought it was blue.
What are you talking about?
This guy goes, when this first came out back then, all I could see was black and blue.
I tried forever to see white and gold.
Just sitting there.
What are you on today, honey?
Like, you got to take the garbage out.
I'm busy at work right now.
And he's just staring at this.
This is the guy who was getting overweight on his phone, I think.
He's staring and he's just like.
please, please turn white and gold.
He's looking at the fucking, he's looking at like those settings on his phone.
He's just like, what can I do with like, yeah.
He's like screaming at it eventually.
He's like six hours in.
So turn, turn white and gold.
Fuck.
Just getting so mad at it.
Pulls up MS paint and starts to try to color it.
And he's like, it's not the same.
It's not the same.
He goes, then when I looked away and then back at the dress, it went back to black and blue.
And I was never able to recapture the white and gold again.
Oh, fuck.
Now I'm sitting here trying to do it again.
It's right there and you've fucking seen it for that second
and you could just never make that happen again.
It's so funny to say, I don't know how, but I did.
And when I looked away and then back at the dress and went back to black and blue
and I was never able to recapture the white and gold.
That is such a funny thing.
It's never able to recapture the white and gold dress.
Yeah, like a drug user talking about there.
Yeah, just like I could never reach that first.
And he goes,
I'm sitting here trying to do it again and can't see the white and gold.
Still trying, though.
This guy has been spending so much of time.
Yeah, you're a good point, Stefan.
If he goes outside, it could change the lighting on it.
That's true.
Make it look white and gold.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
Oh, the dress.
That was just such a wonderful debate.
I found, we got a couple of videos here because Stefan brought a song.
This is a song we play on the stream to punish the chat.
I have this too.
We're going to play it on our show.
Yeah, well, it's really related to the topic at hand.
Okay.
So, yeah.
All right.
I'm going to play this one first that I found.
Okay.
I think you guys are going to really like it.
Oh, God damn it, dude.
What's going on here?
Back in the day, it was way easier to play videos for your friends.
Oh, my God.
Back in the day, you just click on YouTube in the video plays.
It would just play, yeah.
Now it's just like, oh, do you want to put in your,
algorithm, AI functionality?
So this is a guy with a big beard.
Okay.
Always a good sign.
Believe he's my age.
And he says,
proof we're the greatest generation.
Millennials really are the greatest generation.
And I will stand on my Lisa Frank glittery,
Luriel, No More Tears soapbox.
1980 till 1989 was just a different world.
And if you were born in those years,
you are the keepers of the sacred timeline.
Wait, that's me.
That's me.
That's me.
That's me also.
Man, you guys are the
Keepers of the Sacred timeline.
80 to 89.
Yeah.
That's Stephanie.
You and I are both.
I'm 84.
So we're in.
So this,
he's speaking to us.
Yeah.
And Brian,
you're,
Brian,
you're 80.
Yeah,
yeah,
okay.
So we run the,
we're,
look,
the beginning,
the middle and the end,
all three hours.
No,
Brian doesn't quite get there.
He's trying to act like he does.
But Brian,
this is a conversation for Stefan and I.
And if you could just,
just butt out.
Okay.
That's fine.
I think Brian's a millennial at heart.
You guys will love this.
Ryan is not a millennial at heart because he's an old man at heart.
Like he said, he tried to become old when he was like six years old.
Yeah, I don't think he really does have that vibe.
Our bikes with no helmets, no adult supervision.
We drank from the garden hose.
We ate the Flintstone vitamins and washed it down with the purple Kool-Aid.
We lived before the internet, but now we are the internet.
We are the generation that have the OG Myspaces and Facebook pages.
We are the mixtape-making, Oregon Trail surviving.
What's on his hat?
What's on his hat?
Is that looks like a guy with bad opinions.
Well, I mean, yeah.
But I agree with everything he's saying so far.
You know, it's weird?
He, he, he, he, the cadence he's talking in is AI cadence.
But I also say, I don't think he's AI.
No, he's real.
Yeah.
Can I say on his shirt he has Will Farrell doing the more cowbell bit?
Oh, that's what that is.
Oh, that's what that is.
That's like the ugliest shirt I've ever seen.
I'm wearing a button down shirt.
It's like a Hawaiian shirt, but like all of the little things are, yeah,
Will Ferrell.
Say it from the
more cowbell.
That is such a bad shirt.
I can't even imagine
putting that shirt on.
That's actually,
that's a shirt.
I guarantee he got that off
Instagram.
That's one of the worst shirts.
That is actually one of the worst shirts.
I'll make it the picture for the show.
It's so bad,
dude.
Bad.
Yeah.
Bridge to Terabithia generation.
We knew the struggles of the blockbuster late fees.
We were kind.
We did rewind.
We blew into Nintendo cartridges like we were giving it CPR.
We asked,
Jeeves to give us MapQuest directions.
You guys remember when you asked
Jeeves to give you MapQuest directions?
Yeah, I remember MapQuest.
You'd have to print out the map. You'd have to print
it out. I think maybe we might hear.
We still rode in the back of a Winnebago
with no seatbelts holding a road map
for our dad like we were out there being pirates.
We didn't have eyed pads. We played
eye spots. No, I did you.
I used MapQuest to tell you the truth.
That's, yeah, no, we used Mapcust.
But I did use seatbelts. We were using
seat belts at this point. Yeah.
Hi, we looked out the window and we were happy with it.
You're nostalgic, tech savvy and somehow still chaotic, baptized in the hose water and the neglect.
We grew up with disposable cameras, blockbuster cards, and Capri's sons.
We didn't survive.
You said blockbuster already.
You said blockbuster twice and hosed twice.
This is only a one minute and 44 second, right?
You should not be repeating yourself.
You should just only say each one once.
How many likes and comments does this have?
It's going to be like a depressing comment.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll read some comments.
I didn't survive.
We've thrived.
They're the last of the scholastic book fair candy bars selling no participation
trophies full content.
Oh, my God.
That's not true, by the way.
I feel like we were the first generation to get participation.
I got a participation trophy.
I got a part of those.
Yeah.
I got them too.
Yeah.
When I was a kid.
Wow.
So yeah.
We all did.
This guy's lying.
Hodgeball champions generation.
They still put dodgeball.
of the sacred timeline.
We are young enough to understand that the macarena was probably the first TikTok dance.
Older enough to remember that the TV stations used to go off.
They played the national anthem and then it didn't come back on again until the morning.
We quote the sandlot in the Goonies as if it was sacred scripture.
That's the first thing I've ever heard.
No, we don't.
Yeah, you do.
Hey, you guys.
Chris is always coming on the show and we're like, you're killing me, smalls.
I don't know any of the lines.
The only one I know is, hey, you guys.
guys, I think that's from Goonies, right?
Yeah, that's the only line I know.
And because I, yeah, and I don't remember any of the other ones.
What's a good Sandlot line?
You're killing me, small.
Oh, that's from Sandlot.
Is there any other ones that are?
Guys, we got to get to the sandlot before they shut down.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Watch out.
It's the Goonies.
Also, I made this pause the picture for the episode.
Oh, my God.
Oh, yeah, you can really see the shirt and his vibe in this one.
Yeah.
He looks so.
mad. It should be passed down
to generations because it should be.
So no more videos of who's
the best generation when clearly it is no
contest. Hey dude.
Welcome to 1990.
Oh no. What was that at the end?
What was that? That is
I'm trying to close this. So
this is inside 1998 America
and it is a
AI. AI. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. This guy has
so many. This guy has 80s made
90s raised video too.
It's just going to be the same video, right?
Yeah, we met the Goonies.
You know what I mean?
It was crazy times.
Okay.
Here's some comments.
This is actually a line that he could have used in the video.
He's like, nowadays, everyone wants to talk about gooning.
We used to talk about goonies.
Oh.
Yeah.
That's a mis-offer thing.
That's why you get paid the big bucks.
Yeah.
That's why I get paid the big bucks?
Yeah, because you said the gooning and goonies.
That guy doesn't make any money.
Sorry, the big bucks is $2.
3% of the Patriot?
Yeah.
Brian, can you add that comment to this page when you get the chance?
Chris's comment.
This guy goes, I was born in 85, but by no means what I call myself a millennial.
I was raised the same as my Gen X brother and sister.
I'm sorry, but Gen X isn't a bunch of whiny babies all about their feelings.
Self-hating millennials?
Self-hating millennial.
Come on.
Be a proud millennial.
Yeah.
And also, Stephen, I was.
was right there. Can you at some point, Brian, I know you don't have the post up right now,
but can you add my comment, please, to the post about the goonies thing and the gooning?
I'll make sure. Then we can watch this guy's videos like a month from now and you can see if he,
if he's like stealing from the comments, right? He should use it. He honestly should.
This guy goes last generation that could legally get our asses whipped.
Oh, yeah. Here we go. Remember that? They used to whack us on the butt.
Honestly, yeah, child abuse. Child abuse going away.
was one of the days. Child abuse, low-key, fell off.
It used to be so fun.
You're right. Child abuse is like, had its moment and it's like, it feels like it's very like 90s.
That's, that's my favorite type of post where someone is like defending spanking.
And they're like, I was I was spanked as a child and I turned out fine.
Well, no, you're defending spanking now.
So you didn't turn out fine.
Yeah.
Because it was wood panel station wagon, hotboxed with Marlboro Smoke and being on the back of my dad's Harley at five.
able to walk across town to go fishing all day and come back before it was dark.
We did have a wood panel station wagon.
Yeah.
We had one of those and I loved it when I was growing up.
That was like really when I was really young, we had it.
We got rid of it pretty early.
This person's like, excuse you, the millennial generation goes from 81 to 96.
Don't you try cut me out of my people group?
I wouldn't survive as a zoomer with their leggings tucked into their tall socks and high-rise pants.
I went to American Eagle and asked that would make you die.
Yeah,
it would kill you.
I wouldn't even be able to survive wearing leggings.
This line,
I went to American Eagle and asked if they had been hip huggers and the zoomer didn't know what I meant.
I used to call the movie theater to find out what was showing and what times.
So that sounds like a really embarrassing situation for you.
You went in and the people didn't know what you were talking about.
82 here drank out of the hose regularly run the water a few seconds to get the hot water and spiders out and enjoy but actually
it has been shown that the plastics and rubber they make the hoses out of are the worst of them not even allowed in toys
he's so funny to brag about it and by the way i did get brain damage lasting brain damage
yeah by the way it's really bad for it and it probably is going to kill me yeah this guy does he's just sort of saying hey i did it but i think he's kind of saying like
it's actually maybe something we shouldn't be nostalgic for.
I wonder a lot of people agreeing with them.
Well, he goes, not even allowed,
the plastics not even allowed in toys,
but again, still here,
but I tend to remove the hose and drink from the spigot itself now.
Well, he's still drinking from the hose?
Yeah.
Well, yeah.
And he would have to lay down to do that.
Under the, like the hose bib or whatever coming out of the.
Yeah, you take the hose off.
Yeah.
So then it doesn't have the rubbers and stuff in it.
Yeah.
And you drink out of that.
You're drinking directly out of the house, basically, right?
Yeah, he's a 45-year-old man.
Laying down in the, okay.
Laying down and getting a quick drink.
This guy goes 97 here, but in honesty, I don't truly care.
I was still one of the kids that drank from the hose, pissed me on the AC unit,
rented from Blockbuster, etc.
Only real difference is G.I. Joe and He-Man were replaced Pokemon and Power Rangers.
So this guy sounds like wouldn't let go of it.
those things even though like because if you're born in that time it's like you're past that all that
stuff but he's saying no i was still doing it uh no one else was uh doing it uh everyone was like playing
video games and stuff but i was uh still outside drinking from the hose by myself it seems like the
best thing in the world to do these nostalgia guys are all like oh i love drinking from the hose i
wish i was outside drinking from the hose right i drank i did drink from the hose i feel like we all
did i'm sure at some point but it's something i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry i
like it's not like a core part of my personnel yeah most definitely it was like when i'm thinking
hose the thing that gets me all excited is i'm the godfather no what what i am thinking about is
a water fight like a water balloon fight or whatever filling up water balloons filling up your like
your super soaker or whatever and having like a big water fight but like the drinking from the hose
thing was like yeah you get thirsty every now and then you grab a drink out of it but yeah that's
not like the thing
to like,
yeah,
that's weird.
I love it.
Here we go.
Chris,
have you heard this song,
Chris?
I'm sure if you've been,
you've probably heard it
on the stream at some point,
right?
I don't watch your stream anymore.
It's,
I find it to be too chaotic.
It,
uh,
it stresses me out a lot.
I have,
you know,
I'm a father now and I'm looking for a lot of calm in my life.
And I found that like as far as content goes,
I really like your stuff.
It's very funny,
but it's not call.
It's a little,
it's a little much,
I think.
But we,
so this is a song that we will play.
to punish our chat, basically.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This one right here.
This for all my 90s kids.
Hell yeah.
Let's go.
Now let me take you back in time.
Back to some better days.
I remember being a kid like it was yesterday.
So video is a guy just sitting in front of, behind some DVDs.
He's got fresh prints on there, which was one of my big time.
I mentioned this all the time.
It's one of my favorite sitcoms.
I loved that when I was a kid, fresh prints.
Arnold there as well. Again, I'm a little too old. I'm too old for that. Yeah, I don't think I
really got into that. You didn't have to go around acting all hard. You got respect from the way
you handle Pokemon car. Couldn't wait to get it. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You remember that?
Pokemon carts are more popular than they have ever been at this point. And you still.
So this came out in, this is like five or six years ago, I think. So that was kind of maybe before the
the big Pokemon boom like kind of came back.
Can I say, Seven, it makes a song incredibly confusing because Pokemon cards are, I think, more popular than they have ever been right now.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
So here's a comment.
Chris.
I hate getting older.
Everybody's passing away.
Well, so that's.
So can I say something?
Yeah.
That's someone from our chat because that's a line.
That's Doc Hollywood from our chat.
That's a line in the song coming up here where he says, I hate getting older.
Everyone's dying.
Home straight to the TV
Wouldn't miss an episode of my Dragon Ball Z.
Back when Rocco was living his modern days
and when Keenan and Kel ruled the Nickelodeon ways.
After watching Ren and Stimpy acting crazy as hell,
I'd hop on my computer.
Sorry.
That's what we used to do that so much.
We used to watch it as hell.
They were crazy.
That was a crazy show.
Remember they had the log?
I guess they were kind of crazy in different ways.
Like I feel like Stimpy was like more had like a nervous anxiety.
or whatever, whereas like Wren was like maybe more like dominating and aggressive.
Yeah.
Here's a core.
We'll come back to this.
Here's a core thing for nostalgia guys that is very important.
Some 2000s nostalgia.
Not to sound old, but hearing that blues clues now uses email for mail time and smartphone
instead of a handy dandy notebook almost broke me.
First comment.
That like pisses him off.
Oh, well, not just.
Tim. This guy goes, this generation is doomed.
Because they have email on blues clues?
Yes. Elmo, too. Smarty's a little smartphone.
This guy goes, that's not blues clues.
It's the world that we live in.
Yeah.
They walk around in the world, right?
They understand that, that like things are going to get updated.
It's educational, I think.
And it should be updated.
because it needs to be, yeah, you're trying,
you're doing it for educational purposes.
You have to be educating kids on the reality of what the world is
that they're going to be entering.
Yeah.
Wayne says,
this is,
this is one of my favorite comments.
Wayne says the other day I got written up at work for skipping the pre-inspection
on my trunk truck.
Whatever.
What?
That's the hell?
I think I can't,
I just think the word trunk is like stuck in my head.
Well,
here's the thing,
a truck has a trunk.
Thank you.
Right?
So not really.
Kind of.
I'm trying to help you out here, Brian.
Yeah.
He goes,
skipping the pre-inspection on my truck.
Sorry,
how many things are you going to call trunk?
I mean,
I just need to know.
I just need to know before I keep recording.
It's like,
at what point are you just going to decide something else is now called Trump?
That's because that's the president.
That's a truck.
Yeah,
you called,
you called a truck now,
President Trump.
I'm going to sit in this room and try to forget the word trunk when I'm done.
Well,
just look at this chair.
Look at the dress for a while.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He goes, and my boss referred to it as a letter.
He said, you got a letter for not following protocol.
And all I could think of in my head was, we just got a letter.
We just got a letter.
Wonder who it's from.
But that's crazy.
They use email now.
It makes me sad.
Wait, what's that song?
I think that's blues clues.
Oh, that's from blues clues.
Yeah.
I watched it a lot when my daughter was.
Gotcha.
This guy goes, a mom told her kid to do their homework at a bus.
stop. He proceeded to do it on his phone. He was like six or seven, not paper homework, online homework.
Okay. Yeah. I mean, it seems like if you're at the bus stop, it's probably easier than pulling out like a notebook or a binder or something, right?
It actually allows him to do his homework on the go. It is incredibly funny for adults to be talking about how blues clues has lost its way.
like yeah this person goes none of the newer versions are going to beat the originals half the shows
and movies we used to watch have been redone instead of coming up with new ideas they just remake
all the originals in my opinion they ruin them i remember this because the guy who does this show
right he like posted a video about a year or maybe two years ago or something like that just like
saying like hey it's steve or whatever from blues clues like just want to check
in with everyone like see how everyone's doing or whatever it was like kind of like there was some
you know who knows what happened at the time but i just remember reading the comments and it being
really like there was so many people who are just like god i need you so much now in my life like
i need blues clues and it really made me kind of sad to think of like these people who are like
in this somewhat like state of arrested development or whatever where they're like
they just want to go back to that time and get that comfort
or whatever.
When they were literally five years old.
Like that's what I mean.
It's like it's not like,
oh,
I'm getting nostalgic for this thing.
And when I was a teenager,
it's like when I was an actual little baby
and didn't have to do anything at all.
Yeah,
yeah.
Yeah,
you want to be like these,
a lot of these people just want to exist in a world
before there was homework.
Yeah.
Like,
yeah, exactly.
It's like the responsibility of adulthood.
They're not even talking about that.
They're like,
I don't know what to deal with the responsibility of homework.
12, yeah.
cruise the Oregon Shreya I hate getting older
Everybody's passing away
I would get anything if I could go
By the way
This guy's like
This guy's like 25 years old or something
That line feels a little bit
Out of the blue I think
Compared to the rest of the lyrics
Right
Oh I love collecting Pokemon cards
And I love watching Hey Arnold
And Ren and Stimpy
By the way
All my friends are dying
Maybe I'd maybe recently on a friend
Passaway
Yeah it's possible
I was young I'm not a kid anymore, but some days I said I wish I was a kid again.
Back in the day when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore.
But some days I said I wish I was a kid again.
Back in the Day when I was young.
Holy shit.
He's just wearing a shirt that says Carlton on it.
It has Carlton from Fresh Prince on it.
Yeah, I think like before they filmed this music video, he went to Urban Outfitters and just went fucking crazy.
Or the chive.
Yeah, that's urban outfitters big time.
But that's the type.
thing that they would have on the chive is a shirt that's Carlton.
The chive doesn't pay for intellectual property.
They would just have a shirt that says Carlton on it without any of else.
I think that they do pay for it.
They must pay.
We have had this debate before,
but there's no way that they're putting a picture of Chris Farley that says like
Chris Farley on it and is called Chris Farley without paying.
Right?
I don't know.
Maybe I'm wrong.
You're probably right.
Maybe that, but like they do movie things like from Caddyshack and stuff like that,
right?
They have to have some, they would get sued by the people who make caddyshack, probably.
They're all dead.
Can catch me on the floor stacking up my Legos and will someone tell me where they're
That's not even a kid's thing to do, you know?
Can I tell you?
Can you pause it for a second?
That reminds me, Brian, this is completely meaningless now.
It means nothing because we live so far away from each other and I'm not going to send it to you.
you. But when you were here, I bought a gift for you that I was planning to give to you and completely
forgot. It is a Herschel Lego shoulder bag. It's a limited edition. Oh, I saw that. Yeah.
Yeah. Lego. So anyway, so next time we see each other, if ever, I do have this for you.
So Quora, a guy asked, why does it seem like life itself was so much better during 2000 to 2010?
The early 2000s was basically an extension of the 90s.
The culture stayed the same up until the middle 2000s.
Things started to become a little more mature.
But that is an insane thing to say.
Things started.
You got older.
Yeah, you got older.
You grew up.
You were five years older.
Things got a little more mature.
I was expected to sort of do my own laundry and things like that.
It was sort of weird because at the start, things felt like they were like eight years old.
and then like 10 years later,
they felt like they were like 18 years old.
Did you even notice what was happening in the world during 2000s?
How it was like all of a sudden you had to start like figuring out how to get food on your own and things like that.
It was like the world became a really fucked up place actually.
Yeah, very scary.
It seemed as if it wasn't, but still, it seemed as if it wasn't so bad.
Then after 2013, it all became one huge mess because apparently everything we thought and did was considered evil and offensive.
Oh, God.
Oh, I see.
Oh, you're a big.
It's like a racist guy.
You're a big and okay.
I got you.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Old racist guy.
Thank you.
Thank you for illuminating the situation a little more for us.
Everything we thought and did was considered evil and offensive and we had a subculture
of people trying to kill our way of life to satiate their own delusion of self-importance.
I thought this guy just like a TV show recess.
But he's like, he's just like a racist guy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's like a real nostalgia guy where it's like I wish we could go back to all the racism.
You know what I mean?
He goes fast forward.
I got to say it feels like that the racism is kind of still around.
Oh, I agree.
It kind of feels like if you're nostalgic for the racism, you are kind of having a moment right now.
You're eating right now.
Fast forward to now and up is down, down is up and logic has long since left the chat along with common sense.
We must cancel everyone until everyone is squeaky clean and no one is left who doesn't conform and assimilate.
Who is canceled?
Like fucking Chris Dahlia?
Yeah.
Do you know what I'm saying?
Is there anyone who's like, did we leave?
lose any real good ones.
He's still doing like podcast and stuff.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's not even, he's canceled from Hollywood, like being on TV.
That's the thing that's interesting about it too is that like, yeah, you can do a thing that
will get you canceled from doing a major television thing that has all these advertisers
who have all these groups that are constantly bothering them about shit.
But yeah, you can go and have a career and have a life and do whatever you want.
It was always the case.
This guy is like worried about him, like he's going to get canceled.
And it's like, you're just like a Facebook comment.
It's not even fair. It's Quora. Like, what are you worried about?
Well, who knows? He could be, I mean, this could be...
I guess it could be a famous celebrity.
It could be Brian Callan posing.
That would be good. This guy goes pretty soon...
Hey, man. Hey, they're coming after us all, man.
Pretty soon, individualism will be eradicated and the hive mind will be all we know.
Sounds like Jim Brewer.
Sounds like this could be Brewer or Callan or any of them, really.
Let's do a meme from a truly weird Facebook group.
I'm going to show you this meme.
And it's a, the Facebook group is, so it's got a scary name, really.
It's called a baby boomer's last stand.
Oh, yeah.
Which seems like the baby boomers can kill a bunch of people or something.
Like, but it's called that because it's a book that some guy is writing.
Yeah, this guy is writing a book.
Yeah, he'll sell it to you if you send him $5 on co-feat.
K-O-F-I.
Brian, can you buy his book?
Yeah, a baby boomer's last stand?
Yeah, I need to see this.
Yeah, I'd love to read it.
I'd love to read it.
I've been trying to read more.
So, oh, really?
Lame.
So this meme is in the 60s and 70s,
girls could only wear dresses or skirts
with blouses at school.
No trousers or slacks of any kind.
Remember?
No, this is.
Women didn't wear pants.
This is earlier than our,
Yeah, all of us.
This guy goes beautiful young ladies, not born with cell phone attached to the hand.
No amputation needed, L.O.L.
Ironically, posted from his cell phone.
Yeah.
Yes.
Yeah, Stefan.
Got him.
Yep.
This is disgusting what this guy says.
And I got to warn you about it.
That's so, okay.
I have to imagine if Brian is saying, this is disgusting, I need to warn you.
I'm this going to be the worst should I've ever heard.
Well, it's because it's vague.
And I think you guys wouldn't care.
it right away but then you're like oh yeah he goes uh we were gentlemen always let the girls
walk upstairs first yeah looking up their skirts yeah so that's the yeah this guy goes good old times
good music fast cars hot girls this this guy in all caps this is in all caps those ladies were
taught right by their parents they were taught honor self-respect dignity honor thy father and thy mother
and their elders.
Last, the fear of God was instilled in their souls and bodies.
Hmm.
That seems bad.
This guy sounds fucking crazy.
Yeah, all caps too.
Like, holy shit, dude.
And then finally, this guy's, I think this is good.
This is good.
I think that's why I love legs today because of no jeans.
Leg man.
It's because of no jeans or slacks.
Love those mini skirts and all them long,
beautiful legs.
That guy got really horny.
Yeah.
Again,
with his like full name and face attached to it.
I love that.
That's why Facebook and Google is like it,
when me and Chris go look at like reviews of,
like sex resorts and sex clubs and stuff like that.
And it's like the person's actual legal name.
Or it's a person's like name along with his wife's name and he's holding this kid on his
shoulders.
God.
And he's like posting like, oh man.
I'd love to get.
I had a great time.
I think that's a pretty well-known concept
that there's a lot of older people
who don't really seem to have a full understanding
of like the footprint that is left
when they post in this wherever they're posting.
Here's another meme for everybody,
for you guys just to see.
90s kids didn't need much just a blow-up pool and a hose.
Now we have a blow-up pool and a hose.
We're just in the summertime.
We're out playing in a blow-up pool.
just like that, an inflatable pool, and we filled it up with the hose.
Fill it up with a hose.
Charlie and Henry were my nephew and my son.
Do they all live in a town?
Like, you know how there's the movie where they outlawed dancing in the one town or whatever, right?
Do these guys all live in like a city or county where they've outlawed using a hose?
They live in Blade Runner.
That's what I think's going on.
You can still use a hose.
Yeah, hoarses are still popping off in my opinion.
I actually use a hose every single day twice a day because I take Milo up for a walk and then I go down and I wash them off with the hoax.
Yeah, with a hose.
Yeah.
So, yeah, they're still in use, definitely.
We don't have them here.
Oh, okay.
You don't have hoses?
Nope.
And it's funny because the way this guy is like.
Instead, it's just a kid fucking on a cell phone.
He can't do cursive.
Yeah.
I mean, that's what they have instead of a hose.
When my daughter was little, when my daughter was little, you could get the inflatable pool.
you had to fill it up with bottled water.
Children Protective Services will come after you.
Filtered water.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Unfortunately.
This guy goes facts.
Even our own imagination.
We used to come up with all kinds of creative activities to do outdoors.
I mean,
I will say that I think kids do come up with creative things to do outdoors,
but also maybe if they're like,
you know, kids are online and shit.
They're coming up with creative ideas of things they can do online.
Like they're still doing creative things and using their imagination and
I mean, Gwen played outside every single day, like all day.
Yeah.
And she's 21.
So I'll bet you people are still doing it.
You know what I mean?
You walk by a playground.
I mean, Chris, you'll know this with Charlie.
There's still people using the playground.
There's even.
It's insane how busy there.
There's, well, it's insane how busy the, the playground is.
Well, there was a guy smoking crack at the downtown playground we went to, Brian.
Yes, in Vancouver.
But that was, that's the old.
That's not a playground.
that's really being used.
It was a rainy day.
Yeah.
So anyway.
He was like,
come on,
man.
Chris was like,
come on,
man,
don't smoke crack here to the guy.
It was like,
we were there with our kids.
And I just said,
hey,
can you smoke crack somewhere else?
I didn't really confront him or anything like that.
I was just like,
it's a playground.
So I understand.
I'm not trying to like,
you know,
I'm sure,
you know,
in my head,
I'm sure you're very addicted to this.
I love crack.
Yeah.
Crack is awesome.
Buddy,
listen.
If I weren't with my family,
I'd be sitting down
smoking with you right now.
First guy just got smoked to crap.
I love this stuff.
I'm freaking fully addicted to it, but I
just could you please move it along, you know?
This guy goes...
I was a real nimbie.
Yeah, this guy goes, we didn't need shit.
We had it all. Nowadays, ask AI
what to do.
It'll tell you to eat shit.
Me and my friends
would disappear into the woods with Nerf guns
and meet up with the local kids
in the neighborhood and have all out war.
Miss those times so much.
just outside until the sun started to set.
Now, I used to go play in the woods with my friends too.
And we would throw bullets in the fire and run.
Yeah.
And like we would like put canned like canned food,
canned food in the fire and it would blow up.
Yeah.
And you do bullets as well?
We did bullets.
Yeah.
See that?
So we watched a guy,
we've been watching a guy on stream called Tony Yo Man,
who's this really interesting character who will eat food and like tell stories of,
of his, very nostalgic character, I'd say.
And he told a story about.
But in 1990, he worked at McDonald's, and he got fired because he threw a bunch of bullets into
the deep friar to see what would happen.
Oh, that's awesome.
What happened?
Well, they exploded.
They exploded.
They exploded.
It's loud.
Got you.
Gotcha.
Yeah.
Brian, I do think that, like, probably there's some true to the fact that, like, kids do
this less now and there's, like, less, maybe freedom, like, that type of stuff of just going
out.
And I do think, as someone who's raising a kid, I have thought of the idea of, like, wanting
to live in a smaller place where we could just be like, all right, Charlie, you go out, you know,
in the neighborhood with the kids and then come back at the end of the day. I was just, I read something
and people will know, like, people who are like smart will know a lot better about this, but just
about how kids at a certain age crave, like, freedom and just like the ability to do whatever
that they want. And a lot of the times, if they lose that, they'll try to find it in other ways.
And so it's like, it is good and important to allow that freedom to a kid. And it's hard.
harder to do that in like an urban setting or whatever where it's busy or where there's lots of
so i have thought of that idea that i think it is like beneficial to do that but i think it still does
exist in smaller places probably yeah well i i think like i didn't i i wanted to raise a city kid and
i basically did but we lived in kind of a small part of the city you know what i mean that wasn't
like it wasn't so busy that it was where you could just let her go out and play in the neighborhood
But that's what I want, just to be able to, like, allow Charlie when he gets to an age before he's a teenager to have, like, freedom and allow him to explore and stuff like that.
Here's a good one.
And I can give you a story here.
Love the summertime then.
It's barely in summer anymore.
No, honestly.
We have too much summer now, if anything.
Actually, in Vancouver, it's become very summer.
It's like a problem.
Yeah.
Seems we've run out of summers, everybody.
He goes, parents were away at work till 6 p.m.
this was true with my parents and me and my older brother did whatever we wanted this was true
with us you know this was true this was true with my my brother and i as well we were going crazy
huff and gas and then what we were jumping off the roof into the four foot pool we were jumping
off the roof too yeah yeah crazy stuff you know what i mean he goes uh video games junk food direct
TV went swimming and other
kinds of stuff.
Other kinds of stuff. You know how it is.
I mean,
maybe mention it or don't even say
other stuff. Other kinds of stuff.
This guy, okay, here we go.
Hey, we're going to get edgy
here on our nostalgia.
I'm going to say it.
Blockbuster wasn't that great and was
overrated. Come on now. Well, Chris agrees with that. Chris was a
Rogers guy. Only Rogers. We only
went to Rogers video because it was so close
at number one road in Francis
in Richmond was right by whereas
the blockbuster was like maybe
5, 10 minutes further drive. That's the only
reason that we did that. It wasn't a preference.
Better selection of Blockbuster, I got to say.
Because they had all
they had like, and somebody
will complain about this, but they had like 35
of every movie.
Not everyone, but the new ones, but the new ones. But the new ones, you'd get,
you could only rent for like two days or whatever, right?
And then you'd have the old ones were like seven days.
There was one day rentals even.
They popped it to one day for a bit.
And I, but do you remember the great listen?
Hey, 90s kids know what I'm talking about?
You know that great feeling when you go and there's none of them?
You know, there's all the, because there would be the VHS tape behind the copy of the movie.
Yeah.
And then so there'd be all of them would be out, but then you'd go to the returns.
There'd be the returns thing where people did the returns and then you find it in there.
Like that only one.
Oh, that was such a great feeling.
He goes, I'm going to catch hell for this one.
But I don't miss Blockbuster.
It's posted out of here all the time, and I get it.
But it wasn't that great.
I grew up in a small town with a few small video stores.
When I moved to a city with several Blockbusters, I remember thinking, this is it.
Compared to the small ones I went to, Blockbuster was awful.
Their selection was great if you only wanted a new release.
But for anything else, they were never our go-to for movies.
Their prices were high and had fees for everything.
I always wonder why some people treat them
like they were the greatest thing to ever happen
in video rental history.
You are a fucking idiot.
No, they are just,
this guy is really dumb.
Does he really think that?
I feel like they are just like the symbol of the movie store.
Yeah.
Blockbuster just represents movie rentals.
Movie rentals and that experience.
They're not saying that the corporate,
you know, like, well,
we really like their corporate mission statement and things like,
no, it's like, it's just like, yeah,
of course, there's smaller versions of things
are better for a lot of things.
Sometimes we'll have like a different selection.
But I will, I am nostalgic for this thing.
This is a real thing that as like a big time movie fan,
that it really was, you know, people talk about it,
but it really was fun going out as a family
and picking a fucking movie to watch and like going and like,
I would spend 30 minutes in there.
Like really, like I'd be looking at all the sports things,
all the UFC things or whatever.
And that is something that I miss.
And I think was like a good thing that we had that we got.
got rid of for sure i had four brothers and sisters and there were some knock down fucking drag out
fights i don't look at it as a positive yeah that's fair that's fair we were always my brother and i
were pretty close in like my brother was two years older than me and we had similar interests and
like similar stuff so we would we would usually not have a lot of trouble picking a movie or whatever
i was enjoyed and i would get candies as well gummy bears oh you got i love this guy the space
represented the brand, which was shitty generic corporate box store.
You're likely projecting fun memories of family and home movie entertainment under a corporate
brand that just wanted your money anyway they could get it.
And then this guy goes,
Oh, what the fuck?
He's bringing capitalism into it.
Yeah, yeah, the businesses are trying to.
Come on.
That's what capitalism.
They're all trying to make money these days.
They didn't before they didn't make any money.
They were just like, oh, I just love renting video.
The way that we watch, the way we watch movies now, they're still trying to make money doing it.
It's not like that part is gone.
Nope.
You can watch all the movies for $16.99 a month.
Well, you can.
I mean, if you're willing to steal them, then you tore it.
I don't steal.
I do.
I steal movies.
I have a lot of streaming services.
Me too, but if I can't find it on the streaming service and it's, in it.
My friend producer Dan steals the movies and then I watch them.
I am also on Dan'splex, but sometimes I get my.
own and I download my own to watch but I will only do it if they'll give it to me for a rental for
like $499 or whatever I'll pay for those ones where yeah I'll pay that sometimes but I'll pay 20 bucks
no I won't if they're like it's $20 to watch this movie and it's not available on any streaming
service unless it's like hey I really want to support this like Palm Springs you know like I like
wanted to go out and support that movie it was like it was free but I went out and like paid money
because I thought it was so good you know like I'll do that sometimes this guy goes
I wish Toys R Us stayed as the same time and place.
I went to one in Canada.
It doesn't feel right.
If I could be seven again and see the stuff that was in the store when I was seven,
it would be a whole different story.
It doesn't feel right to go into the children's toy store.
Yeah.
It's not the same.
Why can't I go to the toy store when I was seven?
Which toy store is that?
Toys R Us.
By the way, speaking of nostalgia, they're out of business now.
Toys R Us are gone.
They're gone.
They're gone.
There are some.
Not in Canada.
They're all closed down in Canada.
Yeah, there used to be all over the place here and they're all like that.
The big one over on Broadway.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean,
they're all,
there's huge spaces.
So like a lot of the malls and stuff had them before.
Now they're just big empty.
Hey, Chris,
you remember going to Zellers?
Oh,
They brought Zellers back.
I know.
They brought Zellers back like kind of ironically.
But yeah,
it's like we didn't.
Zellers was like the cheap clothing brand place, Brian, around here.
Oh,
shot and Steens.
Yeah,
it was the place where we do the classic like,
I saw you fucking shopping in Zellers.
Like,
oh,
there and it's like, I was fucking walking through.
Like, it's attached to the mall.
I was walking through Zellers to get to the mall.
To get to the mall, obviously.
But Zellers had this little diner in it as well that we would go eat at sometimes.
Zellers was badass.
It's Woolworth.
This guy goes, I love the trashy local video store that had every movie ever put on tape,
including the porn.
If I wanted to.
Okay.
So you're a hard guy, Sean.
He goes, uh, if I wanted new mainstream crap, I'd go to the blockbuster or equivalent.
but for obscure films I read read about in my Leonard Moulton guide give me the crap
Leonard Malton yeah give me the crappy makeshift counters of video mania I think I only went to
blockbuster two or three times we had other options I haven't heard Malton reference since like
Doug gloves movies Doug Benson famous marijuana smoking comedian Doug benson and he's to talk about
Leonard Mollins. Is he like to smoke weed? Oh Doug Benson have you met this guy's deafen no he's
he's a weed smoker?
Oh, buddy, don't get me started.
This guy loves the stuff.
He's all over it.
Oh, okay.
Finally, I had a great time.
I barely had late fees, if at all.
I went to blockbuster.
You don't have to brag.
You don't have to brag about your responsibility.
It was actually cool to have late fees, by the way.
Yeah.
I had late fees.
I couldn't rent without getting late fees.
It was every single time.
Me and Katie, when we first got together, we'd go rent stuff.
And I would never take
shit back. I actually wasn't able to like rent at like I was able to rent at some blockbusters in town,
but other ones they wouldn't let's like a picture of you behind the counter.
Do not rent to Queber. He goes, I went to blockbusters in Missouri, Oklahoma, Florida.
Hollywood video was its only competitor I knew of. I got I wasn't able to rent there either.
Blockbuster was cleaner, well lit,
had better shelves and better video game selection,
especially for Dreamcast games.
Hollywood Video had more selection on movies
and even had a ton of Japanese animation.
Blockbuster had higher prices on the impulse aisle,
stuff like candy and snacks.
Hollywood Video had none of my favorite candies
most of the time in stock and is dirtier.
I like the Blockbuster.
I love these guys.
They're supposed to just like explaining
what each store had. It's so much of that, dude. Because, like, they're all, they all have the same
thing to say. You know what I mean? Like, every, every one of them, like, I found a 2010s nostalgia group
where they talked about drinking out of the hose. Come on, man. And fucking being out to the lights,
come on. It's just the same thing over and over and over again. It's crazy that people don't,
like here, here's a 2010s. Here, the 2010s were the peak of humanity. Everything went
downhill since 2020.
Because 2012 was the last great one.
That's fair.
2012 was the last great one.
2013 and 2014 was pretty good.
2015 and 16 had its moments.
But after that,
2016 is right.
Yeah.
So does no one remember
watch me whip and nay nay?
I do.
I remember that.
It was like 10 years ago.
I remember it.
Clearly not every part of the 2000s was
peak, you bunch of MOOCs.
And a guy replies and goes,
no,
I remember it.
I was 11 years old when it came out.
Man, some good times.
So I think that's the lesson I want everybody to take from this episode is that everybody
wishes, again, they wish they were the version of themselves before homework.
And like.
Yeah.
They're not remembering like the stuff.
They're remembering being 11.
Yes.
Yeah.
And they don't see that either.
Like they don't, they don't even see that they're like so, it's so cliche.
like that it's like everything they say and they're going to do it for the 2020s too.
I did.
I didn't.
I didn't get it.
I saw a guy saying, oh, who remembers lockdown?
It was like two years ago.
I know.
And he's like, who are?
I miss it.
He said he missed it.
And he missed Tiger King and stuff.
It's like, we're just on a constant fucking loop.
But can you play the song one more time?
Oh.
A little bit of it.
Oh, I close.
the window. I can't wait, wait, maybe I can.
It's in the, it's in the chat there.
I just want to hear it. We'll play a little
more song. Do you guys remember this? You guys remember with this
song? Remember when you heard this song? Oh my
God. Earlier in the episode.
I got to move forward. Oh,
here we are. Here we are.
He's talking about candy now.
I'm seeing.
I miss this song.
To pick up some nerds
and for something to drink, homie, we're going
sip on some surge. At 930
parents be like turn.
if you can buy surge now.
Yeah, he bought all that stuff now.
He's wearing all these shirts.
He bought,
I think what I like is that he's like,
remember watching these TV shows
and he has all these like recently made like DVD box sets of them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, he has access to every single thing that he's,
uh,
the only difference is that his friends are all dying now.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, yeah,
he was in that,
he was in that horrible bus crash with all of his friends.
Back in the day they weren't passing away,
but now they were passing away.
They were all right.
Like so like go like him.
my bed and turn on Nick at night.
Couldn't wait to grow up so I could move away, but soon to learn that the best
times was back in the day.
I disagree with him on that.
I loved when I moved away.
All right.
That is nostalgia, guys.
It's very fun.
