Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a head gum podcast. And the horse is named Friday. Hey, can I talk to you guys for a second? Yeah. This is an awesome party. I love it. Dennis is a super close friend. Great location. I love his house. The food is awesome.
Starting point is 00:00:57 Parking ample. It's a cool place. You pulled us into the tiniest bathroom I've ever seen. What do you need, JBC? Yeah, he's got multiple bathrooms. They're all they all smell delicious like I'm actually getting hungry being in this bathroom. Is that insane? Like I don't know what the smell that's like this Pope reads so fucking good. Huh? I guess my big problem. Okay is that he Takes the dressing up as baby new year
Starting point is 00:01:25 like a little too far. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, like a diaper should be worn or? No, yeah, I mean, just the diaper would be fine. Like, you know, as a baby new year, I get it with the diaper, but like he. The Abilk Court to the grandfather of clock? Well, yeah, I mean, like that's a touch too far.
Starting point is 00:01:44 Like the stinky dirty diaper being built, court to the clock. GPC, you're saying our mutual close friend Dennis takes dressing up as baby new year a little too far. If I'm, if I'm out of line, just let me know because it seems like you guys aren't on my side. No, I think, GBC, if Erin and I are understanding correctly, the three of our close friend, star of FX's Rescue Me, Dennis Leary, is going too far with his baby new year party costume. And GBC, we just are trying to clarify because I will say you've had sort of a jealousy issue with Dennis Leary in the past.
Starting point is 00:02:24 No. And the rap, in the past. No. And the rap. You sure? The rap. You remember the rap? I asked what Andrew Garfield was like and he said he's fine. That's not an answer, Dennis. Oh, I think Chris Pratt is voicing Andrew Garfield now.
Starting point is 00:02:37 I think that's how I just heard the news. But he's not going to do it, Italian. JPC. I thought this party's going great, but the costume's funny, not too graphic, but a little graphic, I sort of feel like it strikes the balance. I think he's doing great.
Starting point is 00:02:54 I'm having fun. Addle, you're having fun. Yeah, I'm drunk. He's drunk. So I think you need to maybe take a second, smash some cold water on your face. You know what? So affirmations, and we're gonna get back to the party, splash some cold water on your face. You know what? You know what?
Starting point is 00:03:05 Affirmations, and we're gonna get back to the party, okay? I'm overreacting. You guys just leave this tiny little bathroom. Leave me in here for a couple of minutes. Not gonna do another upper ducker. Okay, I'm gonna take the popery out with me. You're not gonna eat that. I'm not gonna eat the popery.
Starting point is 00:03:17 It doesn't help me do the upper ducker. Hold on. See, you're the asshole who put a duck in the top of my toilet? You're doing the upper duckers. But it's a digested duck. That duck came out of me. Okay, this is ruined. I'm gonna call us to Newburn.
Starting point is 00:03:31 We're gonna go record an episode, okay? I don't trust us at this party. Okay, let's all just, but let's all, we have to say goodbye to this lady. Hey, hey. Hey, you guys in the bathroom? Yep. You guys enjoy yourselves?
Starting point is 00:03:41 Yep. You have a notice? I grew up in Boston. Smoke the cigarette, smoke the cigarette. I grew up in Boston. And you have a notice? Hey. You have a notice? I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I- You just circulate at his party?

JPC is dressed like Indigo, Ventoya. And you're the Princess Bride. This is just like that moment in Princess Bride
Starting point is 00:04:16 where Fessick looks up and he goes, joke pretty lady. I'm never ready. Remember? I've never read it. You've never read it. Anybody got a peanut? Nobody's read it.

You're thinking, wow, that that opening was spot on. That was really good But what you should be thinking is was the theme song different? Was that a different theme song? Who was that? What was that? Who could be something new? Something borrowed something blue. That was beeper to boo. That was Josh Fudge
Starting point is 00:05:19 You remember Josh Fudge heard of him That was the Josh Fudge remix to the Hey Riddle Rittle theme. Thanks to old friend of the show Josh Fudge, a person that we found their name live while we were recording and they couldn't have been nicer about it. And now we have this awesome theme. So thank you. Josh Fudge, check out Josh Fudge's music on Spotify,
Starting point is 00:05:42 follow Josh Fudge and all the socials. And tune in next week to Hey Riddle Riddle where we will be debuting a completely different theme which will be our old theme and then we'll just use that one forever. Unless. Hmm? Something happens in routine guidelines.
Starting point is 00:05:59 Yeah, I guess it less. Yeah, everything is caveat with that. There's always an unless. Absolutely, unless. We're starting year, a fresh, a new. If you're listening to this right now, it probably means that you're currently doing the bare minimum at work. We're so proud of you.
Starting point is 00:06:15 This is a great start. So proud of you. But we are a riddle podcast. And we solve riddles and puzzles and may not say here lateral thinking problems Three Chicago comedians. That's not super updated. We should update what they show Two Chicago comedians one L.A. comedian Am I I saw a different a light pole today at all and it said it said Chicago comedy college
Starting point is 00:06:46 And then it said in like fine print. I had like a phone number and it was like million served and it had like a fine print at the bottom And it said as heard on Joe Rogan experience Wow did Joe Rogan plug the Chicago comedy college a scam that seems to be like perpetuated on this light pole. Anyway, I took down the number and I am going to, that's my New Year's resolution is finally send Adults a Chicago comedy college. He'll learn so much. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Will you guys come visit me in my dorm? No. Okay. There's going to be dirty in there. Super dirty, yeah. Gross. Well, that's a comedy college. So it wouldn't be a dorm.
Starting point is 00:07:25 It would be, what would it be? A dormant, a dormant volcano? It's okay that you don't know how to do this yet. You haven't gone. Yeah, a dormant from cheers. A dormant from cheers. Here's what I'll say. So it is happy new year.
Starting point is 00:07:38 It's 2024. Gross. We need to, gross. We need to, we need to tack on, so 2024 we have to have some resolutions as a unit, a whole as an entity as a group as a podcast. I was thinking 2024 is hey riddle riddles 2020 NAR which means Okay, Mar more Australian accents for the whole year, we can't do any more Australian accents.
Starting point is 00:08:07 I feel like, especially me, it's a go-to, I don't do it well, famously. I don't care that I don't do it well, it's fun to do, but we're growing, we're changing, we're evolving, we're challenging ourselves, we're stepping outside our comfort accents, 2020, NAR. Okay, and I love it.
Starting point is 00:08:24 I will say the last two years have been about Nicole Kidman in her AMC. So we'll have to move on from that. Are we ready? I know, but who was? No, but we've been leaning on that for some, well, I haven't got any comedy colleges. Yeah, you haven't got a comedy college.
Starting point is 00:08:42 That's a good point. That's a good point. I've got my degree, which, Adel, is it okay if I just get a couple things out, just to get them out of my system? Cause I'm fully on my Australian accent, absolutely sucks, I lose confidence in it halfway through. But just to, just to, you know,
Starting point is 00:08:56 push it out so I can get a clean start. Yeah, okay. Hiver, okay, and rise up, ride. Rise up, ride. Am I good? Am I good? No, I'm done, I'm done now. All right. Let me get it out. Why is a disc? Mm-hmm special eyes. I think I got it.
Starting point is 00:09:14 This wash. This wash. People. Papil. Papil. Papil. Am I a papil? Are you done? Are you done, Adel? We had no request. We had no request. We had to do a live show. Do you guys? Do we done, Adel? We had no request. I said the last time. I said the last time. He had to do a live show.
Starting point is 00:09:26 Do you guys, do we feel like we know why? Yes, I'm connected. Do you think there's a correlation? I think it's just because it's a country full of hoons. And hoons are... Oh, hooning is one of the, my favorite Australian pastimes that I've learned about. Basically, hooning it or hoons are people that like,
Starting point is 00:09:45 I guess like, soup up cars and then destroy them by like, driving them too hard. Yeah, it's a very uniquely Australian thing to do. Found very australian. And it's very illegal. All through. Wait, we said that, okay. I know.
Starting point is 00:09:59 We're not gonna be the podcast episode. After this episode. After this episode? Yeah, 20, 20, 20. For me, it's now. I'm done. I just have to talk about hooning one more time. And now I'm done.
Starting point is 00:10:08 I won't talk about hooning for another year. I ain't on R and R. I'm not trying now. I'm not trying to be negative here. I think we can't do it. So effortless for it. Well, here's the thing. Aaron, Australia, let's see, there are different times on.
Starting point is 00:10:24 So this is for Australia, this episode is in December. No, that can't be right. We'll figure it out. But anyway, this is sort of the final of the food. It's only the third, so it might be. It might be still December. Yeah, I think they're ahead of us. Here's what I'll say.
Starting point is 00:10:37 We do have some quick, quick, quick workup top that we have to get through. It's not fun, it's an obligation. Famously last New Year's, we talked about celebrities. We think we'll pass away this year. I hate when we do that. I hate when we do that. Aaron, you famously said, Bluey's dad, bandit would...
Starting point is 00:10:53 Did I? Yes. You did. JBC said that Rahm manual would be eaten by a helicopter. So, is there any... Is this real? I don't know. Is there any? So we do have to get't know. Yeah, that's not real.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Is there any, so we do have to get, just a few chunks out of the way and then we can start with the riddles. Is there any celebrities we want to say, or are gonna pass away this? I'm gonna say Rob Emanuel is gonna get eaten by a helicopter. I'm gonna double down on that.
Starting point is 00:11:16 I wanna say that I think the helicopter that ate Rob Emanuel last year is gonna pass away in 2024. Okay, and I think goofy is gonna hit a canyon bottom and not bounce, not bounce back. Uh, okay. Wow. Not Riley Coyote. I think goofy. I think it's, I think his time is due. You, now, but you think goofy's going to dot parish, trying to be respectful in a very wily coyote way. So do you think is it? Okay. Here's what, here's what I don't know. And this is something I just thought about this morning.
Starting point is 00:11:47 Wook up in a screen, in a fit. I had a night tarot about it. Wiley Coyote and Goofy both plunge a lot to Canyon Bottoms. Wiley Coyote famously holds up a little sign that says like, help or help or whatever it is. Goofy does more of like a, yeah, hoo hoo hoo. Okay. Okay. So I think where the coyote is fit for this life,
Starting point is 00:12:10 I think he's all about, he's all about that life, that canyon bottom life. I think Goofy was not made for this. I think he's a dog. Yeah. He's staying his lane and he's not. And I think it catches up to him.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Adela, if you had a little sign that you'd hold up when you were about to fall into a canyon, what would it say? This seems right. Oh no. It's just a, of course. He has a sign. Of course.
Starting point is 00:12:36 He has a sign. Of course. He has a sign. Of course. I guess if you bring around a sign that says, of course, with you anywhere you go, no matter how you die, it's gonna make make, it's going to make someone smile. Yeah. Oh, absolutely. And RIP already to the roadrunner,
Starting point is 00:12:52 Wiley Coyote movie that just got shelved and they said, we'll never be released because it's going to be tax write off. So that's a bummer. For the other things we have to get to public don't, public domain announcements for 2024. And actually, this seems apropos about what we're just talking about. Did Uncle Santa finally hit the public domain? Not yet. That'll be. So public domain for 24 people all of a sudden some mad dash to write a musical about Uncle Santa. You don't understand listeners. You don't understand how much money we pay every time we do an Uncle's in the episode.
Starting point is 00:13:25 It's an investment for us. Yeah, like $80,000. I don't know if this is correct, but one website said public domain for 2024, Batman, Superman, Mickey Mouse, and even Bugs Bunny. So that can't be right. That is insane and it cannot be correct.
Starting point is 00:13:42 That's what it said. And I'm gonna trust the very first search results versus doing any diligent research. We also have to get to some 2024 predictions. Anybody have some predictions for the year, perhaps something with the Paris Summer Olympics? Way more Batman porn. I guess.
Starting point is 00:13:57 Yeah. Way more superman porn, way more Mickey Mouse porn. I feel like this is a nice one. More about Bugs Bunny porn. It's Bugs Bunny and he's 2023 was peak Bugs Bunny porn. I don't this is an easy one. It's Bugs Bunny and he's 20, 20, 20, he was peak Bugs Bunny porn. I don't think you can get anymore, but he's shopping on a penis like retro money.
Starting point is 00:14:11 Don't say something that funny. I'm not in the right mindset for something that funny at all. What's up, Dick? He has anal sex and then says, You know, you stinker. I think that's pretty fun. Of course, I'll put him in Elmer, but have sex. Okay, I love it.
Starting point is 00:14:30 Okay, that's it. And these are predictions that you do in predictions. No, these are things that projects I'm working on. Any 2024 predictions besides that? I predict that we all get closer in our friendship. I predict that we do at least three scenes that require Australian accents every episode. Can I do a prediction?
Starting point is 00:14:52 Can I do a prediction? And I'm sorry for everyone. I'm sorry for all of you, free listeners, free loaders out there. We love you. You don't have to pay anything for the show. But if you do go to the Patreon every month for the past three or four years, we do a review crew episode where we review something.
Starting point is 00:15:10 I predict that, so we do what, 12 a year, I predict that for next for 2024 for this year, 75%. So nine out of the 12 review crews, Aaron will be unable to complete for some reason. the 12 for a few crews, Aaron will be unable to complete for some reason. And there will be a valid reason, she'll have a reason, but she will not be able to finish whatever the assignment is for some reason. And please be honest with me, is this, are you saying this based on me throwing up maple syrup into the sink? Aaron, there's nothing to do with you throwing up maple syrup into the sink. This has nothing to do with you taking your dog to the emergency room.
Starting point is 00:15:44 This has nothing to do with the video game giving you motion sickness so you can't finish. This has nothing to do with the fact that Netflix personally logged you out and said you can never log back in before you watch the movie. This is just this is just a blanket statement that I think will be a prediction that will come true. Hold on. I am mostly okay in our main feed episodes. I think I thrive on our clue crew episodes. That's where you're best. I'm where, everything's great. I'm golden over there.
Starting point is 00:16:12 I'm the queen over there. There is something about review crew episodes. I have, I'm cursed over there. Yeah. It is unnatural to my body to be on review crew episodes. You to probably feel so uncomfortable in some corner of Hey Riddle Riddle, right? Addle, Addle. Addle, you have to feel uncomfortable. I'm always uncomfortable. That's my secret cap. No, Aaron, I'm just, this is where the smart money is. I'm just putting my
Starting point is 00:16:42 money on a bet that I think I can win and i'm i'm being conservative for the same nine out of twelve uh... what about to have to get completely determined to not have anything go wrong that's just make it that happened more more or less that's fine i'm going to do a side-backed based off with jpc just said and i think airin for your november review crew in this year of our lord of our lord l-o-r-d-E, Australian Lord, 2020. I think that for your birthday month, you're gonna have a poll that's like,
Starting point is 00:17:10 Aaron goes to Hawaii, and then the other options are gonna be like, hold your breath for four minutes, catnap, and something else. Catnap's gonna win or whatever it is, and Aaron's gonna be like, fuck, oh no. Is this because I put DIY Christmas decorations,
Starting point is 00:17:28 the one I really wanted to in on the poll, and then Maple Syrup won, and I threw up into the sink. I feel like there's a better, huge social consequence for me throwing up into my own sink in my own home, with my own Maple Syrup, okay? In the privacy of my own podcast. Yeah, okay, I'm not safe in my podcast anymore.
Starting point is 00:17:47 Fuck that. Okay, we have one more thing to get to before we get to riddles. And that is something we started last year. It's now a Heyer Rural Nier tradition, which is, JPC, you have to call Jason Statham and tell him to not jerk off. This is, this is, this is, this is, this it. I don't know if you remember this. Famously last year, 2023, our first episode of the year,
Starting point is 00:18:10 you called Jason Statham and warned him because you predicted that the cast of the expendables would perish. Oh, okay, Aaron, do you have any memory of this? Absolutely not. And guess what? I did the best of episodes this year. And so I listened to that episode within the last three weeks.
Starting point is 00:18:28 So wait, but what do you think odds are that this didn't happen in that at all? It's just making me do this. That would be very funny. I have to do it. I have to do it. There's still time to do something like that in this episode. Say we did something last year and make us do it again.
Starting point is 00:18:40 I will say JBC. This sounds a lot like you. And I think you should do it. Sounds right. But he's new. He can nail voice here. I think he knows exactly. Okay, you know what? We'll just do it. We'll just, okay, give it a quick dial here. Don't know why I'm dialing. I should just hit Jason Statham, a little auto dial, but I select it from my contacts. Oi, you've reached Jason Stathham and his partner and his partner Hobbs
Starting point is 00:19:08 That's right. We're married Please leave a message to the character Hobb Was that his beep or is that beep? Okay Hey Jason you got a buddy. You got a change of answering machine Every time I call I feel like I spend the first 30 seconds of the call saying it's so fucking confusing. Who's doing Hobbes? Beep!
Starting point is 00:19:33 What the fuck? Oh, that's my microwave. Oh God. And the milk got too hot. No way to cool it down. Sort of reverse microwave. I guess I could try by best to invent that See if I put negative 30 seconds on the boy love. I just picked up the phone. I'll stride it Jason go to the machine, but Jason. Yeah, it's JPC wait. You weren't jerking off
Starting point is 00:19:57 Where you want you weren't jerking off where you want? maybe Jason you're only here by the grace of God because you didn't do it last year. I gotta tell you, buddy, you can't do it this year. God is great, isn't it? God is good at it, isn't it? If you jerk off at all this whole year, your sister Vanessa Kirby. Oh, from the Game of Thrones movies.
Starting point is 00:20:22 You mean jerk off again? Hi, it's me Hobbs. You jerked off already. Hobbs, what are you even doing there? Um, I am. You're his partner. Yes. Stop him from jerking off.
Starting point is 00:20:35 No. What? Would never. All right. You're on your own, Jay. Good luck to you, Jason. Good luck, God bless Hobbs. I'll see you at Christmas.
Starting point is 00:20:44 All right, love you. I Good luck to you, Jason. Good luck, God bless, Hobbs. I'll see you at Christmas. All right, love you. Bye, I love you too, bye. Oh, wow. What a sweet little phone call that was. Yeah, what a nice tradition that is. Well, they're down to earth folk. Another tradition we have. Most episodes is that we have to do some fucking riddles.
Starting point is 00:20:59 So let's do that tradition. Everybody ready for the riddles? The first of the year? Yay! Okay. Yes. Trotten by Sparrows. Huh? Yeah. That's echo. Yeah, that's echo. Trotten by Sparrows resting their wings. Adorns peasant's houses stands above kings.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Reath, chimney, icicles, roof. It's a roof. Wow. Aaron starting starting off the new year blazing hot. Let's see if we can keep that strict. Uh, well, let's go. Let's go. I did hear roof, which means, uh, I do want to see an uncle Santa scene. No, no, why? No. We don't have to at all. At all. At all. The new year, please. That's kind of an important taste because he's passed away. He passed away for, I think we did have like second cousin
Starting point is 00:21:50 Saint Nick, we had, we had a few. Casey is typing. There were, there were other, you know, there were other uncle Sanctus, but he's, I mean, he's gone. We can do it. I don't mind doing like my impression. Yeah.

No, trust me, don't have to apologize, it happens so often though. I'm just used to it and The high chair that you brought to the table. I think this is a medium. Do you happen to have a large? I'm so sorry. We only have the one The one comes in size. Yeah, I mean, we don't custom make them these we order these yeah, I have to order Yeah, we never see a size. size I was just bringing out to humor you
Starting point is 00:28:26 I didn't know you're gonna try and sit in it. I would recommend you just use our normal chairs Okay, if I could I would so first of all I thought good I would second of all no, I'll be using a high chair and And if you don't have the one that fits me then I guess you Who do work here correct? I? Yes, I'll have to come with me to my car to get the one that fits me, then I guess you, who do work here, correct? I, yes. We'll have to come with me to my car to get the one that I have and bring it into the restaurant. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Because it's too big for me to lift by myself. I'm fine to allow you to bring that in. I don't have to join you. I must demand that you do. Okay. I have to, hmm. I'm just, no, I just, this job doesn't pay me well enough to kind of... Put up with that.
Starting point is 00:29:07 It's not a matter of pay! And it's not a matter of pay! I'm requisitioning you to do this task for me. Huh, okay. Um... Our specials today, we do have a... It's a job of shim. It's only one special today.
Starting point is 00:29:21 And he's a special boy. And it's his birthday. And he's me. And I demand that you go get your coat walk with me to my car which is parked at my house. We did bring the high chair back for me to sit. Of course sir we did receive your email from open table when you made the reservation it would say in special notes it is my birthday and then it said free appetizer, free dinner, free dessert. That's not something we do here. I'm happy to bring out some something.
Starting point is 00:29:49 I don't send those emails. I Don't send those emails. Okay. Was there someone else in your party that couldn't make it that sent? No. I'm dining alone. My daughter Sends the emails on my behalf. Of course. She wants nothing to do with me, but on my birthday, she books me a restaurant experience so that I can feel like a special boy. And is your daughter, the woman who's sitting back to back at the other table, from you with the fake mustache on? I wouldn't know. I have never seen my daughter face to face. I was in prison for many years.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Oh, can I ask what you work? I was the warden. Oh, yeah. And don't you feel like a fool? Thank you, thank you for doing that, I guess. I've never met a warden, I don't know what to say to anyone. I mean, he was a warden and then he went to jail for tax fraud, okay? Yes, I was a prison warden who went to jail for tax fraud, so.
Starting point is 00:30:56 I met prison, okay. No, fight, fight. No. How do you know so much about my life? You're not my enemy, Stephen, from across the way, are you? I'm your daughter. Ugh. And I'm your friend.
Starting point is 00:31:12 I'm your enemy Steven from across the way. Ah, the mustache! You are Steven from across the way. All these years? All these years. Now let's get this waiter to go back and get your high chair from the house. Waiter, obviously this is a very special occasion, not something that we planned out ahead of time. I think you should have come with me back to my
Starting point is 00:31:33 house in South Dakota, get the high chair from my car, which I do not own, and bring it back to this restaurant so I can have my special pancake breakfast. And since we have this big big reunion happening, we should get all of it for free. Let's seal it all with a triple kiss. Seen. That's what it's like to be a waiter in 2024. Yeah, pretty much anywhere. Let's do one more. Oh, can I see that?
Starting point is 00:32:05 Yeah, of course. Can I ask you a question? This, have you, I don't really eat out in restaurants a lot, but I do go to a breakfast place about once a week. It's like our special time. We go get some breakfast on a Saturday and I do get to see like little kind of insane things. For the most part, most people are great.
Starting point is 00:32:25 They just go to restaurants, they act normal, there's a lot of like normal at restaurants. But about a couple weeks ago, but a couple weeks ago, is that this restaurant having breakfast? And as soon as we walked in, there was an alarm going off, like one of those cell phone alarms,
Starting point is 00:32:40 it's like, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, like very loud and very abrupt. And I'm like walking into the restaurant, like, what's going on? Like, does no one here this like cell phone alarm going off? It goes off for 10 minutes. Wow.
Starting point is 00:32:55 Finally, I'm like, I'm like trying to figure out where it's coming from, but I'm not like asking anyone or stopping or hassling anyone, because it's obviously a customer. And there's one table, and there are some older people. And my suspicion is on them. Sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:12 This is a judgment, I'm making a judgment, but my suspicion is on them, because they're also one of the only people that are not looking around for the sorts of this out, which is a big red flag. Because finally, a waiter comes up to them and says, Hey, it's the two people. They say the cell phone is one of your cell phones going on.
Starting point is 00:33:29 And the guy, it's a guy and a woman. And the guy turns to the woman and goes, she doesn't even have a cell phone. And the waiter goes, could it be your cell phone? And he goes, I don't think so. I don't think so. And he reaches that he was back and he pulls out a loud cell phone, it's just like, has been going off for 10 minutes.
Starting point is 00:33:51 But I did love the insanity of the waiter who knows it's him. And it's asking him the most polite way. Could it be yours? And his first response was, she doesn't even have a cell phone. It's like, hey, man. We're talking about you. That's exhausting. Um, yeah, I also feel like a lot of older people have the not haptics. What's it? Where's like, when you text or something, it's like, click, click, click, click, click, click, click. Oh, yeah, the sound's on. Where it's like, what are you doing?
Starting point is 00:34:17 People who still have the sound on your phone, I got to tell you, enough with it. She got it. His phones need to be completely silent. I do know people in the service industry saying that post COVID people are significantly crazier to staff at restaurants. Yeah, I believe it be. And I've noticed, and it's the few times I've been at like a fancy restaurant for like a birthday or a special occasion for like a friend or something over the last few years, where I've had the thought like, oh my God, I think being rich gives you brain damage.
Starting point is 00:34:49 Because it's only at the fanciest restaurant that you see people trying to make waiters and waitresses cry for sport. Do it just. It's outrageous. It's outrageous, outrageous. It's big game hunting for the wealthy. Yes, so it's so upsetting in such a clear divine,
Starting point is 00:35:06 a divide between people who have absolutely worked a job like that before and the people who haven't. They stuff in Mount the receipts where they had two items taken off and they put out the fireplaces. Stuff in Mount the receipts. Yeah, I agree with all that. People, Adal, your cell phone's been going off for like 10 minutes. Yeah, I agree with all that. People. Addle, your cell phone's been going off for like 10 minutes.

Does this happen to you guys? We are like, what was this?
Starting point is 00:53:47 Watch someone, I mean, we forget what we did. Watching someone tap dance on a tightrope without a net would be like, just an awful way to watch someone die. That's how all the Grayson family know they're going to go. Maybe that's how goofy goes this year. Wow. Using on a tightrope. That's what. I was raised to Chris Pratt voice by Chris Pratt Italian goofy would be fun. I was watching Italian goofy

I'm gonna do the voice normal Here we go three black whiskers on a white face Regardless of the weather they wouldn't stay together but each went about at its own pace. Clock. It's a clock. It's a man with the fuck dot mose dot. It's a man with a fucked up mose dot on his face.
Starting point is 00:54:53 Who me? Man with a fucked up mose dot on his face. Unnecessary. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue.
Starting point is 00:55:05 You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue.
Starting point is 00:55:12 You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue.
Starting point is 00:55:20 You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a morgue. You're a mor animal. I do wanna see a scene. Okay, no problem. Aaron and JPC, that's totally okay. Aaron and JPC, you're going to be narrators for a documentary on people with sort of fucked up facial hair
Starting point is 00:55:38 and it's almost in the style of David Attenborough or Planet Earth. Let's focus now on a coffee shop in Brooklyn. Yes, so my new band, it's sort of worth like jazz fusion, but like... This man is a barista. And he has a handlebar moustache. So Stephen Malcolmists meets like Miles Davis by way of Tom Waitz. As he does with every customer he comes across, he invariably turns the conversation back
Starting point is 00:56:14 to his mustache. How much work he puts into it, the effort that it takes to wax it, the maintenance, he even gives people advice on solicited of course how they could have a similar mustache. So I thought to just start waxing it in the shower and I think that's really given it some volume. You know, you should maybe do some trimming in the shower, you know, just make it keep it tight. He spent $45 on pomade for his mustache and he spent $30 on his girlfriend's birthday gift. When life gives you pom, we see his apartment, his bed, disheveled, his sheets, not existed, his mattress firmly on the floor,
Starting point is 00:56:55 but in the middle of the room. I mean, who puts the mattress in the middle of the room? But look, I have those togo couches. the middle of the room. But look, I have those togo couches. His books, unread, his records pretentiously bought in his mustache, a high maintenance problem he can hide behind. We now take you to suburban America, Ohio to be exact right outside of Sandusky. To a middle school, where 12-year-old Marcus has just started the ability to grow a must- No, no, Philmy! Don't, Philmy! Please don't, Philmy, please leave. Your dad signed the permissions to the Marcus. He said you could shave that thing on your lip, or you could be in the movie. And you chose not to shave. It's really coming in though. Not shaving makes it become in thicker next time I do shave, you know.
Starting point is 00:57:52 Nope, that's wrong, it's a myth and it's not coming in thicker. Let's ask some of Marcus' classmates how they feel specifically the tall girl classmate, how they feel about his little mustache. Dom looks sad, bad. Okay, so that's just a teacher. That was a teacher. I'm a tall girl. I'm a tall girl.
Starting point is 00:58:11 Teacher what? I'm a tall girl. Teachers can be tall girls. Boy, boy, boy, very good. I'm solicited a teacher and paid you as you pass in the hallway. Stupid shirt, bad attitude. That should be a podcast. As is teachers just talking shit on students.
Starting point is 00:58:28 That's fun, right? That couldn't be. Couldn't dip into problematic. Right. Teachers lunch. Shut it down. We made teachers logic. And shut it all down. Shut it all down. Um, well, why don't we for the first time this year, for the first time, wow, entire year, we're going to first time, this year, for the first time, this entire year, we're gonna hear a voicemail from a listener.
Starting point is 00:58:47 Of course, I do wanna stress for 2024, get us your voicemails, get them in early and often, you can call set 1-805-Rittles-1, that's really one. Rittle-1, no one. Sorry, sorry, 1-805-Rittle-1, 1-805-Rittleital 1, try and keep it under, what do we say, 60 seconds? 30 seconds. 30 seconds. 30 seconds. Fine. Keep it under 30 seconds. We're dying. This year, we're dying to do more voicemail. So send them on over. Uh, Casey, why don't we hear a voicemail theme?
Starting point is 00:59:18 In the Rital podcast system, episodes are proposed to two separate but equally important components. Riddies and Puzzies. If you say, did you make this? No. And scenes. And plugs. And voice mails. I guess that's five components.
Starting point is 00:59:36 This part of the show is mainly about the voice mails. These are their stories. Ten out of 10, fantastic. I love it. That was another submission by Ferdinand Schoen, Chris Finkie. Christopher Finkie. Thank you again for that voicemail submission.
Starting point is 00:59:52 The Law and Order voicemail theme. I don't want to be hyperbolic, but that's the coolest thing I've ever heard. I think, Casey, whenever you're ready, let's hear that voice mail. Hi, Adel, JPC and Aaron Ips Aaron Keith. I'm calling mostly as an experiment and I want to see how long it takes for the voice mail and leaving currently right now to make it on to the show. Jesus Christ. I don't know. Is it going to be in 2027 or it's going to be like January, February, 2024 is my current guess. All right, I love you.
Starting point is 01:00:35 Aaron, you're doing really great. I'm so proud of you. Addle, also proud. JPC. I'm also proud of you. Okay. Hi. Hi. All right. What am I doing?
Starting point is 01:00:47 What am I doing? Okay. Enough. Goodbye. I like the enough at the end. Enough. Okay. We are recording this episode.
Starting point is 01:00:56 It didn't. It wasn't even six hours, JPC. KC cut that. Too much. So that's too much. Is the time limit. I'm going to be honest, it took me a little bit to realize that was you.
Starting point is 01:01:08 It didn't sound like me, right? It didn't sound like you. I think when they said this is Aaron Key, I was like, oh, he he, and then as they kept talking, I'm like, oh, that is really Aaron, but it didn't sound like you. I thought it was weird. Once it gets to the laugh, you know it's Aaron,
Starting point is 01:01:21 because it's really, it's, I don't know. Oh, you. Wow. I'm just kidding. it's hard to fake a laugh. It's hard for someone to like perfectly mimic someone's laugh because a laugh has to be kind of casual or else it's like a little bit forced. So hey, unless you, if you can fool me, if you could call it with your best Aaron, Keith and Brezhda, I would love if we got a bunch of voicemails, 30 second voicemails of your best Aaron, Keith and Bre Keith impression, not too mean.
Starting point is 01:01:46 Couple questions for you, Aaron. First of all, question number one, is everything going kind of all right? Or what's happening? Nope. Great question number two. The voicemail, uh, 30 seconds way off. I mean, you were like almost amended on that one. Sorry. That's for a host of the show.
Starting point is 01:02:01 Even gets a penal. And you also, you also neglected to ask a question What are we what are we supposed to do with the boys? I didn't I asked how long it would take for my voicemail to make it on to the show And a bad question bad question and Aaron's defense. I think there was a question couched within that voicemail Which was JPC? You're doing great It seemed like there's a question mark at the end of that. I wasn't sure if I was proud of him. Yeah, there was a little bit of a pause there,
Starting point is 01:02:28 which again, it's only adding to the length. I don't think we could cut the comedic pauses at all these voicemails going forward. It's adding to the length. I know someone who measures it. Yeah, the guy from the scene. Oh, man. Well, I'm glad that my voicemail made it.
Starting point is 01:02:42 And you know what? Maybe I'll leave another one one day. You know, I'll have it be 30 seconds, I'm glad that my voicemail made it and you know what? Maybe I'll leave another one one day. You know, I'll have it be 30 seconds, I promise. And you can leave that to 1, 8, 0, 5, RITL, 1, or you can, hey, if you want to mail us anything, Aaron, you can mail us something for yourself. That can be mail to hey, RITL, RITL, 6351, West Montrose Avenue, number 267, Chicago, Illinois, 60634. If you want to mail us anything at all,
Starting point is 01:03:06 and that could be a voicemail, you could mail us a voicemail. It'd be very funny for Aaron to mail us something for her because then I would have to fucking mail it back to her California, which would be just a hassle. How unwell do I feel right now? I think that's a fun activity. Aaron, you put the back of your hand up to your neck. Uh-huh. Adolf, do you have anything to plug?
