This is a HeadGum Podcast.
Aaron, JPC, this is your brain.
And this is drugs.
And this is your brain on drugs.
Sorry, I just ate a hard-boiled egg.
I'm just a little hungry.
Every 80s and 90s kid remembers this iconic ad.
Do you remember that?
Iconic.
That ad is a slay queen.
It depicted a super nerdy-looking dad.
It looked exactly like me, I guess.
Holding an egg beside a frying pan breaking the egg, etc
Schedule 35 is removing the stigma around drugs particularly magic mushrooms with precisely measured out microdoses of psilocybin
That you can enjoy daily experiencing all the benefits without
Sizzle sizzle frying your brains and I know what you're thinking, schedule 35, this sounds Canadian. Well it is.
It's a Canadian based startup that ships across Canada and the US and their mission
is to educate and enrich lives with deeper meaning and a better sense of self through
micro dosing psilocybin products.
I tried the mango dragon fruit tea a couple weekend mornings and I had what I can only
describe as amazing days. I felt so much
better. Describe this as a good time. I don't know if that means anything to you
but imagine a good time and that's it. I'm not kidding as someone who has
depression and PTSD I I found it made a huge difference. And I tried some of
their micro dosing chocolates which were delicious and for the rest of the day I
felt relaxed, I felt focused, I was more creative.
It was a very good day.
SHANNON SKIPPER LAUGHS

Close enough.
Perfect. The doctor was the mother. He stood on a block of ice.
Both of them were goldfish. It was the cabin of an airplane.
He stabbed him with an ice cream. And the horse was a prey.
One, two, three, four, eight, riddle, Riddle you worthless worms.
I'm the lord of evil and this is the dark episode of Hey Riddle Riddle.
Oh Aaron it's just JPC.
That scared the shit out of me.
Yeah, I was really trying to fuck with you guys.
This is JPC.
You don't think we know you're the devil?
I have something to admit.
I have something to admit.
This is not the dark episode of Hey Riddle Riddle,
hosted by the devil.
That was just,
It's not?
I was just kind of like a conceit.
No, it's not.
Starting now, at episode 305,
where I've not hosted by the devil anymore.
Come back in here.
Hey guys, sorry about that.
Hi devil.
Sorry about that.
I carved this into my chest for nothing.
Yeah, it looks great.
Great chest, great shoulders.
Devil, not a big deal or anything, but.
I'm not single, I'm spoken for, so. No, I mean,, um, not a big deal or anything, but, um, I'm saying, I'm not saying I'm, I'm
spoken for.
So, no, I mean, we did go on a date and I was just wondering, Oh, that was you.
Yeah.
God, everybody looks so different in the light.
Yeah.
It was kind of a creature of darkness.
So a while ago and I just never heard back.
I just wanted to make sure you didn't lose my number.
Oh boy. Uh, boy.
JPC, great seeing you, brother. Uh, God about.
He's completely blowing me off.
What the fuck?
Eric, don't talk about one of my best friends like that,
okay, there's a lot to help,
there's a lot to help take, but I won't take that.
I will not take being, dismerging my boy.
God, he's so hot.
Yeah, so hot, literally.
Since it kinda took off, I thought
he's going to challenge us to a fiddle competition
or something.
Yeah, yeah.
We had talked about that.
We had talked about doing a whole darker episode hosted
by the devil, but honestly, when it came down to it,
it was like his quote was too high.
Just that appearance, that was $15,000.
Whoa, we can't afford that, not even a little. Yeah, I know. Yeah, it's crazy.
Well, yeah, I mean, that's part of the problem is I knew that Adol would pay it.
So, but anyway, pretty cool to see him again, huh, Erin?
Kind of unresolved feelings there or?
I don't know. I feel like I'm back right where I was before.
What is he, like 11'8", 11'12"?
He's so tall.
AD?
Well, yeah.
Some people say he's Judas Iscariot.
Anyways.
She stares wistfully out the window.
Well, she's describing the things that she's doing.
No, look, let's not do a dark episode of Hey Rattle Rattle.
Let's not have the devil here.
Let's just do a completely,
I think after the last episode of Hey Rattle Rattle, the completely normal episode of Hey Rattle Rattle. Let's not have the devil here. Let's just do a completely, I think after the last episode of Hey Rattle Rattle,
the completely normal episode of Hey Rattle Rattle
that we did, I think we owe it to the fans.
Yeah.
And I think we owe it to the listeners.
Can I just say?
No.
My internet was out.
It was, there was an outage in my area.
And I couldn't- Well, now you can say it
cause you have internet, but back then you couldn't say.
I couldn't say shit.
And everyone was like, was she late for those episodes?
They just thought I was late for two episodes in a row
And I went this is the issue with us make turning into a bit
I wasn't fucking late for two episodes in a row. I my internet was out
Doesn't matter. It's so it's so funny. It's so funny to imagine that it's like
Hey, Rita Riddle is the ship that starts on time.
Like, we, the show must go on.
The cruise ship.
If you miss it, we're not waiting.
If, yeah, they don't let you onto the airplane
after it's boarded.
And Aaron came running down the gangway
with several shopping bags screaming, wait, wait!
No, but that's not, but we don't think that's gonna happen
on this episode. We think everyone's gonna be here the full amount of time,
contractually obligated, minus the devil,
who is only here for the first two minutes,
and still costs us $15,000.
If you think the devil's expensive,
you should see what the fucking price is
to get Aaron on a full episode of this show.
God damn!
I'm in high demand.
Yeah, amen.
I mean, good work if you can get it.
No one will answer my calls. No one is get it. No one will answer my calls.
No one is calling me and no one will answer my calls.
I think your phone might not be working.
Oh!
If you're getting no calls
and no one's receiving your calls,
that might be a phone issue at that point.
That makes me feel way better.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Every dating app that I've ever used
has been fucking absolutely just broken.
Like, they're just not working like it's just
What's the problem like I went to high school with you?
Should be matching
You guys
Hypothetically if I were to download dating apps
Do you think I should include that I'm on a riddle podcast?
100% get out of the way rip the band-aid off Do you think I should include that I'm on a Riddle podcast? Yes. 100%.
Get out of the way.
Rip the bandaid off.
No, but no one will say yes.
Erin, this is such a huge part of your life.
Yes.
Yeah, you can't hide this.
When you are-
This is not a huge part of my life.
It's the biggest part of your life.
I forget to show up sometimes.
When you're swiping through Raya and Judd Apatow pops up,
you're going to want him to know you're on a Riddle podcast
because he could maybe help take us to the next level.
Can you cheat with Raya?
It's a cheater as well.
I have to imagine.
I would never do that to Leslie Mann.
The problem with Judd Apatow cheating
is he's married to Leslie Mann
so she could get Raya as well.
Yeah.
Oh, I pick Leslie Mann.
I pick Leslie Mann.
I would go on a date with Leslie Mann.
I pick Leslie Mann. Yeah, no shit. date with us and man. I pick no shit
How many people you think are gonna pick Leslie man over John Abbot though? Come on. I mean I pick Leslie man over anybody. Oh
All right, let's do riddles
Why?
Why yeah, why you give me one compelling reason to make you do a riddle right now?
Because it's in the name of our show, but it's not in the bio of your dating apps, okay?
So, JPC and I don't want to be a part of something you're ashamed of.
Yeah, you're afraid of the rug.
No, I'm not ashamed, Adel. I'm not ashamed.
I'm deeply embarrassed.
I want to talk to them.
If you go on a date, Aaron, I want to talk to them.
I want to talk to them.
If I date anyone, you'll never meet them.
And that's by design.
That's not true.
Erin's at a coffee shop in Silver Lake,
suddenly bursting through the door
as JP Riddles and Puzzbot in full costume.
Sweaty from the plane.
I'll be out in LA, I'll be out in LA
in a couple of months, Erin.
And if you think for one fucking second,
I'm not gonna find out if you're dating someone
and then go and introduce myself and shake their hand and like show them my shotgun and sit too close to them on the couch.
I'm doing all that. I'm doing all that. No. No, I'm gonna. I'm not gonna wait for my child to grow up. Who has the fucking time? I'm gonna treat you like a child.
I'm gonna quit. Hey, I quit. I quit.
Casey, can she do that?
Casey is typing.
Casey is typing.
I'm so fucking confused.
No, I can't.
I love it too much.
She loves it so much that she's going to show up for the whole episode today, guys.
How's that?
We'll see.
Only time will tell if the Internet.
I guess that we. Yeah, we.
And this is for the record.
This is just for everyone out there listening.
We do not commit to doing the whole episode.
Just because you're listening to an episode,
just because it drops into your podcast feed,
doesn't mean we'll be here the whole time.
Yeah, the last 20 minutes of this one could be a pig orgasm noise.
Aaron, stop. Don't. Casey has it on the soundboard.
Don't.
You say it, he'll play it. No, don't, don't.
Okay, well, we'll spice it in like,
let's put like 30 minutes of it right here.
30 minutes?
And then the podcast will pick up in about 30 minutes.
No, no, no, no.
We can't play pig orgasms.
And since we're all here, which is so rare for the show,
why don't we do some riddles, huh?
Great.
That makes sense.
And what do you say to doing some riddles, huh? Great. That makes sense.
And what do you say to doing some riddles from 2018?
Is that fun?
Perfect.
I guess.
I've had these on, well, I've had these on my,
I keep a little spreadsheet of riddles
that people have submitted for the show.
And these have been on here for quite a while.
And I'm gonna get into them right now.
And you guys are gonna tell me
how long you think I've had these on the list. I keep scrolling down and forgetting that I have them,
so I'm gonna do them right now.
Here we go.
These are Riddles from Ashley.
Who is a Christmas Trees favorite singer?
Who is a Christmas Trees?
Yule Brenner?
Yule Brenner.
Wither Spoon.
Wither Spoon. Now is Wreath Wizard? Brenner. Wither spoon?
Now is Wreath Wizard?
Wizzard spoon?
Wither, Wizzard spoon?
You're a wizard, Reese.
Wreath Wizard spoon.
That is incredible.
I'm doing the complete wrong direction on that.
Title of the episode.
Erin, incredible.
She's still at it.
That's why she gets paid the big bucks.
Wizzard spoon.
You try to say Wreath Wizard, gets paid the big bucks. Wizard spoon. You try to say wreath, wizard, witherspoon.
Wreath, wizard, spoon.
Get it right, it's wreath, wizard, spoon.
The answer is wreath, wizard, spoon.
Yeah.
Who is a Christmas tree's favorite singer?
Mariah Carey.
Oh, that's a really good answer, yeah, probably.
Okay, let's see, What do we know about ornament?
OK. And it's a pun.
I mean, if you get wreath, wreath with their spoon kind of works,
except she's not a singer, she's an actor.
I don't necessarily know that she does any singing.
But if you could give me any singing pun that works with a Christmas at all,
I'll give it to you.
But there's a specific one that they're going for.
Okay.
Deck the Hall and Oats.
Ooh, yes, yes, yes.
Okay, yeah, Erin, I said it. I said that I would.
I don't love that one, but I'll give you Deck the Hall and Oats.
You don't love it?
I don't, but I'm just, why don't I love that?
Deck the Hall. I think what's tripping me up is it's Deck the Halls and it's Hall and Oats.
So it's, but Oats is an S.
So there's just like a pluralization issue in there
that I'm not in love with.
Fine.
Addle, do you have one?
Trying to think of like words associated
with Christmas trees and all I can think of is like
ornaments, tinsel, gifts.
Yeah, yeah.
Are any of those the base of the answer?
No, none of those are the base of the answer.
Pine.
Is it coniferous?
Chris Pine who does sing, right?
Yeah.
That could work.
But what are some other types of trees
that might be Christmasy?
Evergreen.
Yeah. Coniferous.
Evergreen, Everlast, is that a thing?
Like, do you remember Everlast?
Father of mine, oh oh that's Everclear.
Tell me where have you been? Great song, honestly great song.
Who is Everlast? Everlast was, he did the rap right?
And then you really might know what it's like.
Is that him?
Yep that's Everlast.
It's neither one of those.
So this is based on a tree.
It's another type of tree, yeah.
Why can I not think of what type of tree is usually a Christmas tree?
I don't know, man.
Is it not pine?
It's not pine.
It's not a pine tree.
And I think that- What are they called?
I don't know.
This is a word.
Spruce. Spruce.
Spruce. Spruce.
Spruce Springsteen.
It's Spruce Springsteen.
Like you're bringing presents.
Yes, that is Spruce Springsteen is the answer there.
These I think are kind of like in the vein
of warmup riddles.
Where does a snowman keep his money?
I almost said Erin, I almost addressed that one
just to Erin.
Where does a snowman keep his money?
Yeah.
In the bank.
Erin. In the snowbank.
In the snowbank. Wow.
Yes, you have got it.
You addressed it to me for a reason.
Do you want to see a quick scene?
Um, Adel, you're going to make a deposit at the bank and Erin, this is a, it is a snowbank
and you're working there.
You're the teller.
Um.
Yes, may I approach please?
Uh, yeah.
The name is Frost.
Jack Frost.
Cool, cool, cool.
Nip, nip, nip,, yeah. The name is Frost.
Jack Frost!
Cool, cool, cool.
Nip, nip, nip, nip.
Take a little nip of the booze in this little flask here.
Oh god.
Okay, sorry, we're probably going to close in like a minute.
No, no, no, need to make a deposit here.
Here's...
Is it snow?
Here's 7,500 icicles to put in my account, please.
Great.
And I have to let you know that if it does become spring, we are not liable for whatever
happens to turn to you, deposit into the snowbank.
I am so cold.
Well, then I'd like to liquidate my assets, please.
That will happen on its own when spring happens. Okay. We don't actually
like to expedite that process at all. We let it happen naturally. So if you want
to come back in a few months and get a puddle. What's the APY? What is that?
Is this a high yield snowbank? Yeah it could snow again here and then that will accumulate on top of your.
Oh, my money will accumulate.
Yeah, maybe. Or it could turn.
Or if it starts like a rainy kind of snow, then it could melt some of the assets.
So, you know, we don't make any promises.
OK. And I've got some money on my tongue on the way over here.
Are we able to do anything with that?
Uh. Yeah, you spit into my hand, I guess.
Hey Casey, can we get a clean, just a drop of Erin saying, yeah, spit into my hand, I
guess. I think I'm gonna need that.
I'm gonna need that.
Whoa, number one on iTunes.
Number one on iTunes.
How is a three second clip of. Whoa, number one on iTunes. Number one on iTunes.
How is a three second clip of Erin saying that
number one on iTunes?
Nobody wants to hear me say that.
It is crazy what can get out of the iTunes charts these days.
Where, or I'm sorry, why did the gingerbread man
go to the doctor?
Where did the gingerbread man go to the doctor?
Yeah, what hospital?
You're gonna need to answer either one of them. If you have a hospital pun, you could do that the doctor. Yeah, what hospital? You can answer either one of them.
If you have a hospital pun, you could do that as well.
Seattle, grace.
He was feeling crummy?
He was feeling crummy.
Yeah, because he was feeling crummy.
Is that the answer?
It's the answer.
I'd like to see a scene.
He was feeling crummy.
Adel, you are a gingerbread man
and you're going to the doctor who's JPC
and you're trying to explain like real symptoms that you're having and
JPC is trying to get you to say that you're just feeling crummy. Okay
So it feels like
Every time I get up in the morning just like my left not as like sore
Let you said left. Yeah, okay
Um, well, yeah, we can we can definitely check that out and we'll definitely get to that but you know
I'm gonna give you a full
Comfortable. Yeah full gamut of tests. So I just have some questions. Have you been using shampoo?
Frosting a frosting. Okay, of course and and you're using that what every day once a week
Well, I just read that you're not supposed to shower every day
once a week. Well, I just read that you're not supposed to shower every day.
Yeah.
Because there's like natural oils that-
Sure.
Like cooking oils that arise from my-
Cooking oils.
From my gingerbread.
Sure.
Yeah, shortening.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, I'm not trying to get this over with.
I'm just-
Though you're not abbreviating.
It's, I see what you're saying.
Gotcha.
So, yeah, maybe-
Because I am noticing, I am noticing some dandruff.
I'm noticing, it looks like chocolate chips, I guess you would say, but kind of scattered
around the shoulder area.
Yeah, I can't really brush those off.
Those are baked in.
Those are baked in.
Yeah.
Okay, because they are some of them are falling off onto the floor.
Are you sure those are not feeling there's moles and there's dandruff and it's hard to
tell because some are some are dark and some are semi sweet.
Sure. Yeah, but you're you're sure that you're not feeling a certain way about that because you
kind of are leaving a little bit of a residue on the floor here.
Oh, sorry, you put down a baking sheet on the, when you told me to hop up here, you
put down a baking sheet?
I thought...
That's standard operating procedure for an gingerbread.
Am I feeling a certain way?
I guess I'm feeling anxious.
I'm feeling...
Anxious, interesting. Okay, no, yeah, we can... Hesitant to sort way? I guess I'm feeling anxious. I'm feeling... Anxious, interesting. Okay.
Hesitant to sort of, I guess, go through with any surgery.
Yeah, we can treat a lot of these. Obviously, butterscotch for anxiety.
If you're feeling at all hesitant, that could be little chopped up Heath bits.
Could help with that, of course.
Is Heath a portmanteau of hesitant in something else?
Hesitant in toffee, yes.
Wow.
Yeah.
So Heath is hesitant toffee, wow.
Yeah, toffee with a th.
Now you know.
Of course, British spelling of toffee.
Okay, well, you know, I don't, honestly, after completing my kind of battery of tests, I don't really see anything
physically wrong with you.
Can you describe your kind of emotional state?
Maybe it's something on the other side.
Are you feeling rundown at all?
Low energy?
Yeah, I guess a little apathetic.
There's maybe dipping my toes into ennui.
Oh, and ennui, is that a type of jelly?
I'm not familiar with ennui for dipping?
No, not really.
It's like au jus?
Closer with au jus in terms of the French origin,
but I guess au jus is more of a beef sauce.
Oh yeah, and that would be disgusting for a creature.
Dipping, yeah, dipping.
Yeah, that's yourself to dip into beef sauce, although.
Okay, but you're emotional. Oh, crumb. You're emotional cr dip into beef sauce, although... Okay, but you're emotional.
Oh, crumb.
Crumb.
I was gonna start taking little bites.
Yeah.
Uh, you know, you're a doctor, you say do no harm, but...
You're a gingerbread man, I'm gonna eat you.
I'm gonna eat you up.
It's so hard not to do the Shrek gingerbread man voice
whenever I play gingerbread, which is this one time.
The one, the Eddie Murphy one?
Yeah, it's hard for me too, man.
Hard for me too.
How do you scare a snowman?
Aaron, how do you scare a snowman?
I scare a snowman.
Get out a hairdryer.
It's you get out a hairdryer.
You got it, you got it right, Aaron.
Get out a hairdryer.
Hug it.
No, it's true.
The answer is you get a hairdryer. Seriously it. No, it's true. The answer is you get a hair dryer.
Seriously?
Yeah.
That's so dumb.
I'm just as confused as you as to that answer.
So hair dryers are like guns for snowmen?
Yeah, but also you could use a gun on a snowman as well.
I don't think that would be that big of a deal though.
Maybe a water gun with hot water.
Ooh, now we're talking.
I don't know what would be a big deal to a snowman
because they're just, they're an inanimate object.
They're just snow. A rabbit?
Yeah, a rabbit. A rabbit at face height.
Wow. Ooh, a rabbit the size of a dog.
Oh my God. Okay.
What does Snowman eat for lunch?
This one is- Parrots?
Snowballs?
No, this is, we're looking for a pun here.
We're looking for a pun here.
We're looking for a pun.
What does Snowman eat for lunch?
I would say this is like a traditional lunch food.
Definitely not a breakfast food.
Sam Snowwich.
Aaron, you're close with Snowwich.
Sandwich.
Sam Snow.
You're close with Sandwich.
But it's not a sandwich.
Grilled cheese.
No.
Oh, is it an Ice of Pizza?
Oh, that's good.
Adel, Ice of pizza does work.
I will give you ice of pizza because I'm benevolent
and you just, you came up with a great pun.
So ice of pizza, Aaron, Adel has ice of pizza.
So he's on the board.
If you can give me the right answer,
you can steal this rental.
You can win those points, Aaron.
And those points do go towards me,
Aaron.
Not shaking hands with a future date of yours and saying, I'm Aaron's father.
Aaron, it's me in the bushes trying
to do like a Cyrano de Bergerac.
Help me, help me, help me.
Beef Snowganoff.
Say Beef Snowganoff.
My name's JPC and I'm Aaron's father.
It's nice to meet you.
He's going to kill me if I say Beef Snowganoff.
I don't know who'll kill me.
Beef Snowganoff. Aaron, what are you doing? That was a joke. Beef Snowganoff. Adel will kill me. Uh, beef snowganoff!
Aaron, what are you doing?
Aaron, beef snowganoff is, of course, I said sandwich was close.
Nothing's closer to the consistency of a sandwich than beef snowganoff.
I didn't do it! The bush did it!
Let me see.
Ah, you little rascal.
Adel was behind this bush.
With a pentagram carved into his chest.
It hurts so bad. I think it's infected.
Of course, the answer I was looking for here
was icebergers.
What?
Oh, like lettuce?
Wait, oh, ice, wait.
Like an iceberg.
I see, iceberger.
Okay, okay.
Ah!
Iceberg.
Two middle fingers from Erin.
She's gonna bring that.
That kinda sucks. Hey, Casey, we do save these videos though. No, we don't Casey Casey. We do Casey. We do
Oh, yeah, we got the video we got the video I didn't mean to
Know Aaron you gave me the middle fingers and now you have to pay you have to do this riddle all by yourself
I can't help you at all. I'll hide in the bushes and help me
No, he gave me beef snowgadoff. Yeah,
which is violence against me. Erin, what kind of music do elves listen to? Do elves listen
to? Elvis. No Erin, it's not Elvis. Although that is good and you do get points for it.
That was the saddest no I've ever heard. Elvis was good. I think it's not the answer, but yeah, Elvis.
It was jingles.
Elves, don't say jingle elves.
Don't say jingle elves to me right now.
Aaron, Aaron, pssst, Aaron, Aaron.
Why are these Christmas riddles?
It's May, yes, Adam.
I told you, they've been in here for a while.
If we're talking about like Santa's elves
and not like Lord of the Rings elves,
it's gotta be Toy George.
Say Toy George. He'll kill it's gotta be Toy George. Say Toy George.
You'll kill me if I say Toy George.
I tell you, I saw the answer sheet, it's Toy George.
Beef Snowganoff.
The answer of course is Beef Snowganoff.
It is wrap.
And Erin, in answer to your question.
Wrap.
Why are we doing Christmas riddles in the middle of May?
It's because Christmas can be any time of the year, Aaron.
No, and we've established that it can't, and I'm so tired of doing Uncle Santa
making Christmas shows.
Oh, have we?
Uncle Santa?
Have we, Aaron, established that it can't be any time of the year?
Ho, ho, ho, ho!
I have a gift for you, Aaron.
Sorry, I forgot to wrap it.
Nothing has convinced me more that Hey Riddleriddle
has an expiration date more than Uncle Santa.
JBC's flipping me off.
No, Uncle Santa's flipping you off.
He's giving you the bird, Aaron.
And for my little Addle, ho, ho, ho.
Don't accept any gifts from him, seriously.
I made you some beef snowganoff!
Okay, Aaron, I do have to take this. I'm actually on his side.
No, Addle, please, it's poison! It's obvious!
It's so cold! It's so cold!
So what's been going on?
Ho ho ho, Uncle Santa's here! What's been going on?
Wait, Aaron, Aaron, did you match with Santa on Raya?
I matched with Uncle Santa on...
I'm fucking believable.
Bumble.
Hold on, hold on.
Uncle Santa's on Raya.
I mean, I'm not on Bumble.
Aaron Keefe is not.
I'm not famous.
And you're not.
Are you famous?
No, I don't know if I'm famous.
I am on Raya, yeah.
Cool.
I just want to date with Dua Lipa. Oh, I don't know if I'm famous. I am on Raya. Yeah. Cool. I used to date with Dua Lipa.
Oh, nice. Can you get me a recommendation for Raya? Can you get me in there?
Yeah, I got a recommendation for you. Get famous. And then get on Raya.
I don't want to be famous. I want to date someone famous.
Aaron, two things. One, you absolutely should be on Raya. You're the most famous of us all.
And two, you match with him on Bumble,
is it not the one where the women make the first move?
Is it?
And did I make that joke on purpose?
Huh.
Huh.
Huh.
Hey, let's not investigate people's low points.
If we didn't account for people's low points,
Uncle Santa would get no play.
If you listen to this show and you work for Raya,
get me in there.
I'm not trying to meet the love of my life on there.
I'm trying to go on a date with a weird celebrity
and have a strange experience.
If you listen to this show and you work for Raya,
you could probably be fired.
Don't tell anyone you've listened to this.
Don't tell them you're weird.
I don't think they let weird people on there.
Amen.
Anyway, what's new with you guys?
Can I hang out?
Slam.
Where we're, ow, my toe!
Aaron.
What?
Why, what'd you?
Aaron, Jesus Christ, that was a guest.
No it wasn't.
That was $30,000 was his appearance fee.
Why are we paying for the devil and uncle?
He cost more than the devil?
Well, he did longer.
Did he?
I think so.
I think so.
Give me another riddle.
I need to cleanse myself of Uncle Santa.
Okay.
What is the snowman's breakfast?
Are we still?
What is the snowman's breakfast?
What is the snowman food?
I do wanna see a scene.
I do wanna see a scene.
And I see a scene.
Yes, Adol.
Well, I say scene and this is more just like a slice
of actual life.
Ice, ice.
A slice of ice, thank you so much, an ice of life.
So Erin, you are Erin Keefe.
You have just matched with Uncle Santa on Raya
and I just got to see what a first date would look like
between the two of you.
This is Uncle Santa and Erin Keefe on a date.
Thanks for meeting me for this hike.
I think it should be pretty fun.
Ended up being a nice day.
I agree.
Sorry, I don't have hiking clothes.
I just kind of have the one outfit.
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
Yeah, if we run into anyone I know, can you just,
I'm just gonna tell people that you're robbing me.
No, yeah, I mean, that's totally fine with me. And just so you know, I did tell a couple of people
where I'm gonna go and I shared my location with them before.
Wait, what do you mean you shared your location for safety on a date with me?
Yeah, for safety. It's a first date and you suggested a hike in the wilderness.
Yeah, I mean, I know, but like...
Oh, ho, ho. I'm not an idiot. It's a first date and you suggested a hike in the wilderness? I mean, I know, but like...
Ho ho ho, I'm not an idiot.
You're Uncle Santa and I'm...
I don't know, I'm just hearing...
I mean, it would make sense that...
Uh...
I mean, it's good that people are doing it.
Uh...
What?
Sorry, I feel like we're getting off to the wrong...
I feel like you think you know me and I don't know...
Yeah, but you just...
How am I the one messing this up?
Sorry.
Would you go on a hike with just anyone?
You shared your location, I'm assuming, as well with people.
Of course, because I'm on a date with Uncle Santa.
That's terrible.
Uh, uh?
I mean, you shared your location, so Glass House is, right?
No, I mean-
I mean, it's safe to share your location with friends when you go on a date.
But not because I was going on a date with you.
I don't even know you.
Oh, I shared it because I was going on a date with you. Yeah,'t even know you. Oh, I shared it because I was going on a date with you.
Yeah, that's why I'm saying that.
I'm upset.
I mean, I don't know you, but I do.
I do listen to your podcast.
Aw, that's so nice.
Yes.
You're Jamie Loftus, right?
Oh my god.
See?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Aaron, now Aaron.
What?
Aaron, now Aaron.
What?
Would that, based off that, would you
go on a second date with Uncle Santa?
And the show will pay for it.
I was the problem on the date with Uncle Santa.
I can't believe I was blowing it.
That is not good for my ego.
And that wasn't even a real date.
You're out of practice, Aaron,
but Uncle Santa's got tons of practice because he only works
one day a year and so the rest of the time he's on dates.
Are there any hot famous people that are single right now?
Tons.
Cause I'll just slide into one of their DMs right now.
Let me just get on my, I have a spreadsheet of this.
Hot single people who are famous.
Timothy Tallamane.
Oh looks like my wife found the spreadsheet and And okay, I'm in big trouble.
Because I shouldn't have been keeping that spreadsheet.
Um, I don't know, man.
Erin, yes, probably.
Charlize Theron is single.
Okay.
Now we're talking.
I'm pretty sure she's still with Seth Rogen.
I remember seeing a movie where that was the case.
I forgot. I forgot all about that movie. This is not up to date. I forgot all about that movie.
This is not up to date, Aaron's, Aaron Gould was.
John Hamm is married.
He just got married, I think.
So yeah, they'll probably update it.
Angelina Jolie.
I think one of the Coen brothers is single, maybe.
Ooh, Aaron, that could be a good guess.
Possibly.
The guy from the Garfield movie.
Who else, who else, who else, who else?
Aaron, I think one of the Transformers, the single.
Oh my God, I don't wanna date a car again.
I can't be of any help to this, Erin,
because I do think that every time,
I don't know any celebrities' names,
and then when I do see a celebrity,
Mariah would be like,
yeah, they're married to this celebrity.
And I'll be like, huh, what?
Where do they find each other?
Probably on Riah, huh?
Aaron, I just Googled most eligible bachelor
in Hollywood currently.
And it says, as of today, and I won't say the date,
but as of today, Sonic the Hedgehog
is the most eligible bachelor.
Wow.
Okay, he actually has rejected me already.
So that's a no go.
It looks like Kevin Spacey is single, Aaron.
And he's coming back.
Is Henry Cavill single?
Henry Kissinger is.
You're a little old for Henry Cavill, Aaron.
I'm sorry to say.
He's like 45.
I know, isn't that the problem?
It's not about his age, Aaron, it's about yours.
What movie is he making where he looks this hot?
That's crazy.
Okay, all right.
We're at work, Aaron.
You can't be Google and Henry Cavill when we're at work.
Yes, I can.
I guess you can.
I guess there's nothing we can do to stop you from doing this.
All right, well, what were we talking about?
Snowman's breakfast.
A snowman's breakfast.
We need to know what a snowman's gonna eat for breakfast. Okay. Eggs and bacon,
pancakes, waffles.
I'm gonna tell you this, it's a cereal.
It's a kind of cereal.
Oh, ice crispies.
Erin, finish the thought.
Frosted flakes.
Frosted flakes, yes Erin.
Frosted snowflakes.
That's not icy, ice, yeah, I guess I'll give it to that too. Yeah, honeycomb, but winter. I'll do
Okay, yeah, no it is frosted flakes you you could stop guessing you got it. We got two more of these.
Lucky Charms!
Lucky Charms, but winter. Cold Lucky Charms.
What do you get when you cross a snowman with a vampire?
I love this one.
John Patrick Cohen.
Wow, that's tired.
What the fuck?
The fuck?
Snowman with a vampire.
I hope you never date Henry Cavill.
No, you don't mean that.
I kind of would like to meet him. I know right
Yeah, as much as I don't want you to be happy
I do kind of want to meet him if I date Henry Cavill will you still do that?
I'm Aaron keeps bother and the shotgun thing if it's a fucking
Please sign my Witcher 3 poster first of all, it's not a poster. It's a lookbook
I'm my Witcher 3 poster. First of all, it's not a poster, it's a look book.
What else?
Yeah, you wouldn't, you'd fold immediately.
I would say what they did to you on The Witcher is fucking bullshit.
I will not be watching the other guy, Thor's brother or whatever.
I'm not going to be watching that.
He's doing like a space marine thing, right?
He's doing Warhammer.
Henry Cavill?
The thing about Henry Cavill is that he does like to date people who are in high school
when he was in his thirties and that's not okay.
But he also does like to build computers and he likes Warhammer.
So it's like, come on.
He reached out to Brandon Sanderson and said like, I'm probably too old, but could I please
play Kaladin?
And Brandon Sanderson is like, well, you're way too old and Kaladin is Asian.
And he was like, so then that's a no.
And he's like, Kaladin is Asian.
And he's like, so that's a no.
Rough stuff.
Rough stuff.
Rough stuff.
A vampire, so Vampire Snowman, is this a play on Dracula
or is it a play on like blood or something?
What do you get when you cross a snowman with a vampire?
I think it's like you take something from snowman
and something from vampire.
Frozen stakes?
Frozen stakes is fine, but it's not what we're looking for.
When you get me across a snowman.

All right, all right, look.
Oh, play ball.
We are moving on. We are moving on.
We are moving on from all things Christmas
and we're moving on to some riddles from Esther.
Which Esther is like a biblical name
and makes me think Christmas.
Erin, are you okay?
No.
I'm allergic to Christmas.
That should be a Hallmark movie.
Wow, allergic to Christmas. Amanda Pete is back in allergic to Christmas. That should be a Hallmark movie. Wow, Allergic to Christmas. Amanda Pete is back in Allergic to Christmas.
It's gotta be Amanda Pete. Amanda Pete! Of fucking course it's Amanda Pete.
Hell yeah. Get that money, Amanda Pete. Okay, here we go. This is a riddle from Esther.
A famous basketball player is lying on an operating table in the hospital. He's there for routine surgery and he's not nervous at all. They place the gas mask
the gas mask over his face and he hears a nurse say just relax everything's
going to be fine. The statement makes him feel extremely nervous. Why? Just relax
everything's gonna be fine. The famous basketball player.
Oh, because she was, the doctor was looking in a mirror.
That's funny.
Adel, that is the correct answer.
Yes, you got the crux of it, basically.
But it is that the nurse was talking to the doctor.
So the doctor who would be performing the surgery, the nurse was saying, just relax, everything is going to be fine,
which made the person who is having the surgery
feel very nervous.
Can I tell you what I think is good about that riddle
in the way it's written?
No!
Oh yeah, you can tell me.
I would say, I think it's good because the detail
of him being a basketball player really throws you.
Cause I think otherwise you would make a beeline
to the correct answer too quickly.
And I appreciate them making a little bit more difficult
of a maze.
Also, what is a routine surgery?
Like isn't every surgery kind of like a big deal
if it's your body?
I get a little tune up every two weeks.
I go in, go under the knife
and they sort of rearrange the organs.
Yeah. Make the feng they sort of rearrange the organs. Yeah.
Make the feng shui better in my stomach.
Go into the, uh, go into the, the doctor every two weeks.
Yep.
My butthole is completely out of whack again.
I do not know how often most people get a butthole alignment and they're like every six months or 30,000 miles and you're like, well, I don't know.
I don't know why mine is so out of whack,
but go ahead and fix it all up again.
I wonder if like for like a basketball player
or an athlete in general,
if routine would mean like an ACL tear or something
where it's like severe, but it's also,
it happens so often that they're like,
this is routine. We'll do something.
I do think that if I ever had a doctor
like describe a surgery that I was having as routine, I'd be like,
okay, back up.
You gotta remember, I'm a guy with a body.
I'm not just a person at your work right now.
Like, you gotta be giving me your A game.
You gotta be like...
I'm gonna be working on you like a car.
This, my eyes are glazed over.
This is, I'm checked out this whole time.
This is basically like my commute.
I get there and I'm like, how do I get here?
I don't remember driving here. No, no, I need you to focus up. I'm checked out this whole time. This is basically like my commute. I get there and I'm like, how do I get here? I don't remember driving here.
No, no, I need you to focus up.
I'm an autopilot.
Routine surgery.
I thank you so much, Esther, for writing in that riddle.
We have another one from Charlie,
another riddle from Charlie, not another one from Charlie.
I don't know if Charlie submitted this fucking riddle before.
A hunter took a shot at something,
then realized their mistake.
A few minutes later, they died.

Hunter took a shot at something.
Yeah.
Realized they made a mistake.
They shot their shot.

Yes.
A hunter took a shot at something, then realized their mistake.

Yes, it was Hunter Biden.
And that's kind of the direction the podcast is going.
Took a shot at it.
2024.
Fooling the government?
We're getting into the serious issues
and we're talking about Hunter Biden.
Took a shot at something.
It like shot, it's like.
It's not a mirror.
I do like the mirror though, that's a fun answer.
Shot the person that was coming to save them.
Whoa.
What were they hunting?
They were hunting a different person?
A bear mauls you when someone's racing towards you
to help you and you're like, another bear.
Could it be JPC?
The bear's teaming up with a guy in an orange vest
that says rescue.
I'm fucked if I let them both get me.
JPC, could it be something along the lines of like,
he's on ice, like he's on a frozen pond
and he shoots at like a wolf on the pond
and that cracks the ice or something?
Dude, that is so close, but it's not the answer.
But I think you're totally on the right track.
Yeah. I think it has to be,
he shoots at something and the environment changes. Oh my God, you're so on the right track. Yeah. I think it has to be, he shoots at something
and the environment changes.
Oh my God, you're so close.
You're so close.
He shoots at his like heater.
And if he's cold out, he's like has a heating thing
that he's standing by and he breaks it.
Okay, that could be, yeah, I could see that.
I do think that that's.
He thought a gas tank was a squirrel.
I'm just wondering...
He started an avalanche.
Aaron, it's an avalanche.
Nice.
Uh, I think that it's so, yes, it is an avalanche. The gunshot sets off an avalanche
in a few minutes later. He is covered in snow, but I do want to see a quick scene.
Adol, you have invited Aaron out hunting with you, and Aaron, you have brought a bunch of
creature comforts that do not belong in the wilderness for hunting.
So we'll sit up here and we just kind of make that noise.
Use the deer call whenever you like and that'll make a noise to attract deer.
I don't really want any deer coming near me. I'm going to be playing a lot of Nintendo Switch, a lot of Wii Sports, PlayStation,
Xbox.
What the f- I see the Switch, but how are you going to hook up you brought a TV on a
rolling cart?
Okay.
Excuse me, would you sign for this?
Are you Michelle?
I am.
Yeah, I have a sleeper sofa for Michelle.
Oh my god, you are late. I sofa for Michelle. Oh my god. You are late
I'm sorry right here. I got lost. It's the woods. Yeah
Okay, well I was gonna help you set it up, but you
Tip for you. No, okay. Well, that's fine. My friend will set it up for me
what I
Have you breathe guy keeps fucking blowing up my phone.
I ordered a bunch of sushi.
See?
He's confused.
He doesn't know where to go.
Dear, I hate the smell of fish.
So?
Tracy, I thought we'd get escaped to the wilderness, right?
To get, you know, out of, out of the path of screens and consuming media.
Yeah, yeah, we are. We are. We're outside the city. We're outside the city. We're outside the city. We're in the wilderness.
Wait! There's a teenage deer sitting down on the sleeper sofa.
Okay. I am gonna freak out. That's pretty gross. Can we kill the deer?
Yeah, that's why we're here.
Oh, this is all about killing deer?
Why did you say so?
Choked the deer, choked, choked.
You see a Uber Eats guy giving $80 worth of sushi to a deer.
Hey, that's mine!
Seen.
A teenage deer ate my sushi.
Misfits, that's a Misfits song.
I miss a teenage deer, baby.
A deer could fucking fuck up some sushi.
A deer could eat so much sushi.
I don't know if they would like it.
Only one way to find out.
That's my new children's book.
Field trip.
Field trip to the woods to give sushi to a deer.
Why not?
Hey, why not?
In this economy, why not?
One deer loves sushi.
Why don't we do this?
Why don't we do a riddle from Nietzsche?
Nietzsche writes, within, I clean all that is bad and is old.
I make juice that's the color of gold.
Stop it.
Stop it.
What, what, what?
We weren't even doing anything over here.
Should I die?
A filter machine would need assembled to replace me

Yeah, I think the earth is a big bladder
What could blad earther mean it couldn't mean anything move on
What could Blad-Earther mean? It couldn't mean anything. It couldn't mean anything.
So let's just move on. Here we go. This is a riddle from Justin,
and I love this because this riddle comes with a title. This country used to be something, man.
We used to do riddles with titles. This is the way that it used to be. 2018. God,
that was a better time for America. This is called Two Brothers in a Box.
Hmm. John gave his brother James a box.
About it, there were many locks.
James woke and said it gave him pain,
so gave it back to John again.
The box was not with lids supplied,
yet caused two lids to open wide.
And all these locks had never a key.
What kind of box then could it be?
It's like a piano.
Before we find out, I'd like to see a scene, you're two brothers and you're stuck in a box.
And Erin, I want you to, um, you're also the brain, so you can chime in whenever.
We'll see.
Ugh.
Let me try one more time.
Eeeeh!
Stop. Man, stop.
Nope, can't poop. Cannot poop in a box.
Why would you want to?
We're obviously we're in a coffin. It's because of your gambling debts. That's what the guy said before he put us in the coffin I'm just trying to scare us. We're not gonna die in here and I'm absolutely gonna die in here
We heard him dump all the dirt on top of us. That was probably a fully artist. Okay
They're just trying to confuse us to try're trying to pit us against each other.
And I'm trying to shit because that'll give us motivation.
You're not going to be able to shit.
You already shit once.
You think you're going to be able to shit twice?
You haven't had anything to eat while you're in here.
Okay, fine.
I can't believe I'm dying for your gambling debts.
I told you, I told you, you cannot,
you cannot bet on historical basketball games.
They're already over.
Their scores have been determined.
But, but the butterfly effect thing, the pass is changing constantly.
The Mandela effect, the butterfly effect, all the effects.
It's not, it's not.
Those effects are not.
You're not going to die.
You're being dramatic.
Okay.
The bullet in your leg is fake.
They shot fake bullets at us.
They shot fake bullets at you, They shot fake bullets at you.
I think.
I think one of the guys wasn't on the same page.
I got a real bullet in my leg.
It's going to be fine.
Um, Oh, uh, do you ever see kill bill?
I taught the second one.
Shit.
Did you, did they recap the first one when you saw it?
Wasn't the thing that I'm thinking you're thinking of in the second one?
Yeah.
Well, what I was going to say is remember, because this is useful for us in this
moment, remember when Uma Thurman plucks out Darryl Hannah's eye in one swift
motion, take out my eye, because then I feel like in your head will be even and you'll stop complaining.
You know what? That's fair. I appreciate that. That's very big of you. Okay, I'm going to
take out your eye. Man, you just do the heart exploding thing from Kill Bill to me when
I tried to grab your eye. It was instinct. Yeah, that heart exploding thing. It's instinct. Oh man.
Yeah, that heart exploding thing, it's real.
David Carradine in that movie died jerking off.
In Thailand, I think?
Yeah.
Couple more riddles?
No, we're in the middle of a riddle.
Hold on, we need to figure out how David Carradine died.
All right, on the box.
Couple more riddles.
You don't wanna talk about David Carradine jerking off to death? Okay, fine.
Weird.
I do, but I'm trying to get through these riddles.
Yeah, you have to get through this riddle first, and then you can have your dessert.
What is the box?
Can you read it again?
John gave his brother James a box.
About it there were many locks.
James Woken said it gave him pain, so gave it back to John again.
The box was not with lid supplied, yet caused two lids to open wide. and all these locks had never a key. What kind of box then could it be? The answer by
the way is also in rhyming couplets. So I don't know where this riddle is from but it's just from
Justin it's called two brothers in a box so maybe it's like a famous, I don't know. This is great though.
The answer is not a single word it's several couplets.
If you get the answer it is a single, but the way that the answer is presented
is in rhyming couplets, which I think is very interesting.
And we have a hint.
Hm, hm, hm, hm, hm.
What has locks but no keys?
I will say that John gave his brother James a box about it.
There were many locks. I don't that John gave his brother James a box about it. There were many locks
I don't necessarily know that it's a
Like a tangible box
Yeah doors box it could be like pintor is boxes like a metaphorical box
A boom box HBO home box office
box office. Are the names important? Are these like historic names associated with the with the
John Locke? That's a great question. James and John as names are not important as so.
Hmm. So so one person was hurt by it. It said it opened, it didn't have a lid, but it opened other lids, which would be their eyes. Is this- Okay, yes.
Is this like the thing from Clockwork Orange?
Oh, Jesus, no, it is not.
It is not that torture device that-
Had to ask, had to ask.
Holds your eyes open, it's not that.
This is a metaphorical box.
Yeah, but it's not a metaphorical box.
I didn't say that.
I just said it's not like a tangible.
It's not like a physical box.
Okay.
And, yeah.
DVD box set.
Is that a DVD box set?
Can you just tell us the answer?
Is it the GameCube?
Ah, I can't tell you the answer, Erin. but I can read you four couplets that will supply you
with the answer, if you would like.
Yes.
Here we go.
As curly-headed James was sleeping in bed, his brother John gave him a blow on the head.
James opened his eyelids and spying his brother, doubled his fist, and gave him another.
The kind of box then is not so rare.
The lids are the eyelids, the locks are the hair.
And so every schoolboy can tell to his cost,
the key to the tangles is constantly lost.
I almost said boxing ring.
Wow.
And then in my head I was like,
there's no locks in boxing.
Unless I guess, bring a deli,
sorry, bring a bagel from a deli. Bring a del Sorry, bring a bagel from a deli.
Bring a deli?
Bring a bagel from a deli.
That was a good riddle.
I like that riddle a lot.
You just brought a knife to a gunfight.
You just brought a deli spread to a boxing match.
You brought a bagel to a punch fight.
A bagel to a punch fight.
Welcome back to the championship punch fight.
OK, you guys did a really good job at that riddle.
I think that riddle was really good. and guess what? Now you're done.
You don't have to do any more riddles.
Yay.
You did a great job.
What about a voicemail?
You can have a little voicemail,
but first we have a new voicemail theme to play.
Hmm.
We brought the mail across the sea
to bring these notes along
from listeners around the world, a great mighty frog.
Now Adol, Aaron, and JPC will form our favorite scenes
while we all wait for the mail to come from 2018.
2018!
A sea shanty!
Fuck yes, amazing.
And I do feel pretty called out because yes, all of those riddles were from 2018.
That's incredible!
Congratulations, you did a great job.
Oh my gosh, it was a JP sea shanty.
That is from Eric. Eric says, in honor of the prequel to 300, I wrote an inspired sea shanty mailbag theme. I hope you all enjoy.
Eric, we absolutely did.
And also, there's a bunch of other Sea Chantee.
A lot of people really enjoyed doing Sea Chantee mailbag themes. If you have a mailbag theme,
please keep it to under 30 seconds like Eric did, only 27 seconds. And send it to
HRRPodcast at gmail.com. Casey, can you play us a voicemail?
Hey there. My name is Christina and I'm from Boston and I really like to go find bottles
on beaches and stuff and I was curious, what is each of your favorite kind of trash?
Right, thanks, love you guys, bye.
Oh my God, I love that question.
Find bottles on beaches?
I thought-
Yeah.
Is that?
I'd say JPC is probably my favorite kind of trash.
Erin, that means so much to me, you have no idea.
I was going to say Long probably my favorite kind of trash. Aaron, that means so much to me. You have no idea.
I was going to say Long John Silver's.
Oh yes. Love that answer.
Um, we are, we are a simpatico because when they were talking about trash, my
mind went to Taco Bell, like Taco Bell would probably be my favorite kind of
trash. I know it's absolutely disgusting and I still will eat it.
Um.
We're simpatico there, but also we're Sicario
because we both love Benicio del Toro.
Yeah, and we would have killed that family.
I love like scraps of things,
like scraps of paper and scraps of fabric.
Like scraps.
It has been quite a while
since I have experienced this type of trash,
but it used to happen quite often in high school.
I would go to thrift stores to buy like clothes.
And every once in a while,
you would like buy like a jacket from a thrift store
and like reach into the pocket
and there would be like a note in there.
And I found a note and a jacket that I bought
in a thrift store in high school
that I like kept in my wallet with me for a long time. And it
was like a weird grocery list. It wasn't like a personal note.
It was like someone was making a grocery list. I can't remember
what it was. But like, there was just the first items were like,
like eggs, milk, banana or something like that. And then
the rest of the items were like a to-do list of like things to do.
And I was like, this is the worst way to make a list.
Like this list is not gonna be,
you can't use this list in an applicable fashion.
So I do like finding like other people's notes,
I think is my favorite type of trash.
That's very coveted.
I love that.
I would say maybe, and this is maybe specifically
like New York City, when you're walking around
and there's stuff put out to the curb,
like people either hoping somebody takes it away from a trash company or something,
or hoping somebody takes it for free, like just picks it up and takes it home.
But it's usually some amount of audio equipment.
Constantly there's just like old timey audio equipment out there.
And it's always like a Bell Dovia sonograph or a phonograph.
Like it's always some sort of weird off brand
and just like an old timey outdated system.
I love just seeing what weird shit was made
between 1940 and 1985.
Yeah, that's pretty cool.
Running her up for me, we'll say the big trash island
that exists in the Pacific,
which is just all the plastic bottles that we throw away.
Love that.
I love finding used condoms anywhere
that you're not supposed to find a used condom.
You find it in somebody's bedroom, you're like, okay,
I get it, but like in the street or like on the corner,
like that's always fun.
Comes with a story.
No, wait, hold on.
I was on board with everything you were saying
and we got to the end part.
