It's me. It's Aaron. I'm under the disguise. It's me.
What? This is a tree.
No, no, no. It's me. I'm Aaron.
Okay, Tree. If you're Aaron, tell me something only Aaron would know.
Oh, my God, what do I know? Do I really know anything for sure?
I don't know if I'm sure about anything.
Hey, J.B.C.
Oh, Adel. Hey, thanks for meeting me. Okay. Oh, this is perfect timing, man, because I really got to rip a piss.
Do you mind if I hit this tree up or?
Yeah, go for it.
Hey, you should know this tree says it's Aaron.
Will that ruin it for me?
No, I can work with that.
Okay.
Wait, what?
Unzerp.
And.
Unzerp.
Yeah.
Unserp my purse.
Ha, ha, got you.
It's me.
I'm the tree.
Oh, and you were trying to collect my...
Oh, I forgot to.
I was supposed to collect your pee.
Damn it.
Is it too late?
P in my hand.
No, nice try, Aaron.
You'll have to work a little harder if you want to make a clone of me.
Ah, I got God again.
If it wasn't for you,
grown adults.
Well, okay, $8,000 tree costume for nothing, I guess, unbelievable.
Yeah, what is the adult version of meddling kids?
Nosey bitches.
Nosey bitches.
You nosy bitches.
Gossiping.
Jirks.
Adults don't really meddle much anymore.
Like, they either, like, shoot everybody at a bank or they, like, go quietly to their work.
Like, they don't, they're still, like, in between.
I guess I'm also now questioning how old do we think Scoob and the gang were?
We're getting to the point where that's an important question for society.
Because people would say
It would have gotten away with it if it weren't for you meddling kids
Kids to me is
What do we think?
Anything under 15, 16?
I think if a bunch of 17 year olds are like fucking with me
I'm not like get out of here you kids
They are like not adults
They're technically children
But like if I would say like I saw some kids
I'm thinking of like
Grade school kids like you know
Somewhere in like the first to fifth grade
Yeah, kids don't wear ascots.
Well, not anymore.
One of them has, like, facial hair.
What do you mean they're, like, 14?
Are they 14?
I guess you could, I mean, some people had facial hair, like, not good facial hair when they were like, yeah, 14.
14 for, because Shaggy, doesn't Shaggy have, like, a- Shaggy's 14, but he's high for his age.
He's very high for his age.
And also, Scooby-Doo can't be a kid.
If you told me that's a 14-year-old dog, I'm like, that dog's almost dead.
Well, he's a kaiju.
There's a surprising amount of kaiju's.
Mickey Mouse.
Mm-hmm.
Big bird?
Big bird.
Bugs Bunny.
Hold on.
Is this true?
Aaron, these are the most powerful magical creatures in our universe.
In a urnivore.
In a urnival.
In Zernerner.
Adel, you listed three of those things before.
In my mind, I was like, oh, yeah, a kiju is that thing from Pacific Rim where there's two people
piloting it. And then I was like, no.
The guys used the other. I thought in my mind
when you were listening to those, I was like, yeah.
There's like two people inside of Mickey Mouse.
Two little guys operating bugs, buddy.
One for the carrot, one for the mouth.
One for the carrot.
Fooky.
One for the carrot, two for the mouth.
All right, y'all, that's right.
Yeah, I love like 2000s most dev.
Adel, JPC.
Step into my office.
Okay.
Step right?
Okay, this is like a, like a kitty pool.
Yep, mind the gap.
Can I answer it now.
Sit down.
Oh, interesting.
You would call this a kitty pool?
See, I would say that this is like a teenager pool.
Yeah, what age is this pool?
I have an important question.
Uh-huh.
How are you?
What's going on here?
How are you?
Can I tell you honestly, Erin?
Can I tell you honestly how I am?
Yes.
So at the time of recording this, a freak
fucking accident of nature.
I mean, nothing that I planned.
This is just the way my life unfolded
happened to me,
where they were three days in a row
where I went to a diner and got an omelette.
Now, I...
None of that sounds like an accident.
That sounds like an active thing you've decided to do.
I'm not an every day of the week diner guy.
That's not who I am.
I'd love to be that.
That's actually who I aspire to me.
That's the version of me that, like,
when I close my eyes and think about,
that's who I am, but that's not the guy that I am.
I also, I don't, I can't eat a whole omelet.
So I'm, I'm taking half of an omelet home every time I order one.
An omelet to go.
Yeah, I'm, I don't, I'm a waste not one-nogai.
I love a leftover.
Even with an omelet?
With an omelet, yeah.
An omelet heats up pretty well in the oven.
What?
Okay, okay.
How many eggs are in this omel?
I mean, these are, these are big omelets.
These are not small omelets.
There are some omelets that I can eat, but like a diner.
A diner omelet? Like a classic diner.
By the way.
Like a fake word, the more we say it.
This is three separate diners.
These are not the same diners.
These are scattered all corners of the earth.
Three separate diners.
Do you think when Vin Diesel eats an omelette, it's called a domlet?
Yeah, it's called the Domit.
And the secret ingredient is family.
In my fridge right now, well this morning, I should say, I had three leftover omelets.
Now I know I got to be eating these omelets, but I can only really have them for breakfast.
So I have to have like one a day.
But now I'm thinking,
should I eat these in the order that I purchased?
And that's the smart thing to do
because that's how they're going to go bad.
But also, they were from three separate diners.
Some of them are better than other ones.
So do I eat like the best one first?
Do I eat the worst one first?
Completely fucked up my whole day.
I mean, what a fucking horrible decision to have to make.
This is a riddle.
This is like the lady in the tiger or whatever.
This is like the lady and the tiger.
I love that movie.
What would you guys do in that situation?
Which omelet are you eating first?
I would never be in this situation.
What are you talking about?
Yeah.
Getting an omelet three days in a row is so crazy.
And what do you mean?
It didn't scratch your itch for an omelet the first day?
Okay.
So you're saying I'm at the diner.
I'm already at the diner on the second day.
Diner one, day one.
Omelet.
You're craving an omelet.
You get an omelet.
You can't finish it.
That's fine.
You bring it home.
Fridge.
And is this a cozy corner?
Uh, was it?
One of them was.
closey corner, which, by the way, my favorite omelet of the three. Okay. Day two. Day two,
wake up. If I'm craving an omelet, I'm actually going to get really upset. I feel like I'm my
cheats are about to get hot. Day two, I'm craving an omelet. I go to my refrigerator where I have
leftover omelet in my refrigerator. Nobody said anything about craving. I told you, these were not
plans. These were accidental happenings of the universe where day two. Day two, why are you,
I'm freaking out? Why didn't you wake up and eat the omelet you already had in your refrigerator?
Can I tell you? My wife had an early doctor's,
appointment, so I drove my wife to the doctor's appointment. And then after she had the doctor's
appointment, there was a diner across the street and she was hungry. So we went to get the omelet.
Again, nothing that I planned. And she was not with me the first day. It was just me and my kid at the
diner at the diner. But why get something that's not an omelette at the second diner, knowing you have
omelette at home? Because, I'll be honest, I'm not a sweets for breakfast type of guy.
There's other option. That's not the only savory option. It's the only savory option for a vegetarian.
Keylace.
It was not,
Adel, this was like a daughter like Norwood Park.
There were no Gilaquilis on the menu.
And then third day, you go, oh, I'm going to wake up and have my two leftover omelets.
Third day.
Hold on.
The third day was Saturday.
On Saturdays we go out of breakfast.
That's what we do in this house.
That one, that one is set in stone.
That one's non-negotiable.
I think what you do, I think, yeah.
I think you make like a Frankenstein omelet where you take, cut each one into thirds.
Yes.
Combine them in like a pan or something.
Heat them up and then and then eat them that way.
For three days, I have one third of each omelet.
And then I, okay.
Yeah, no.
No, I don't want to give you any sort of real advice here because I don't want to encourage you to keep doing something like this.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
you're just going to go and get omelet without eating your leftover omelet every day.
Well, now I'm in three days of omelet.
Like, I did three days of omelet and now I'm in another three days of omelet where I'm eating
leftover omel.
So yes, today, this morning, I had some omelette.
And then it's going to bump up against your Saturday breakfast and then you're
going to have omelette again?
I mean, I'm truly living in a prison of my own making, but I've got to say, the breakfast
in prison, not bad.
It's all omelet, baby.
and I'm fine
Erin
How are you?
What are you getting at a dinner?
Well, if I'm going to a diner
three days in a row I'm trying to mix it up
Give me like
Hit me with three breakfast orders
Pop, Bob, Bob, what's your plan?
Okay
Day one I'm probably going to go for
Like the classic breakfast
Where it's like two eggs
A protein, toast,
Hash browns
Day two, I'm going to go for some sort of like eggs Benedict.
Okay.
A little hollandaise sauce?
A hollandaise sauce.
Day three, I'm probably kind of tired of going out to eat for breakfast and I might be doing like ordering a bunch of sides.
Like I'm getting like a bagel and a side of bacon.
Like I'm doing piecemeal of whatever I'm craving that day.
Or I'm doing like a, yeah, like a bowl.
like a bowl that is like maybe a Mexican inspired bowl
or something that has maybe a little bit more vegetables in it
than the first two days.
Like a quinoa or something like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, okay, for sure.
And I'm getting a Bloody Mary each time.
Okay.
Adela, what's your go to a diner order
if you have to go three days in a row?
Chilikiles number one.
Corned beef hash number two.
Okay, corned beef hash.
Biscuits and gravy number three.
three.
Interesting.
Okay.
Yeah.
I love a diner.
The people that can eat meat, have so many more options at a diner.
You get, like, I love a vegetarian biscuits and gravy.
No diner's ever going to have that.
Yeah.
Not like a greasy spoon type of place.
Yeah.
Sad times.
Well, enjoy your omelet hell.
Speaking of hell, here's how I'm doing.
Yes.
I decided late last night.
And I'm not going to say names.
But I think we have to start tearing these people apart limb by limb.
Listen, hear me out.
Yeah.
Again, I'm not specifying who I'm talking about.
But I think...
Could be someone we know.
Could be someone we don't know person.
I'm not here.
I'm not saying it's not a good use of your time.
Here's just one other thing you could be doing late at night.
Yeah, yeah.
I'll throw this out.
Sleeping.
No, don't listen to Mr. Omlet.
He doesn't know what he's talking about.
I've heard of it.
I've heard of it.
I'm Mr.
Um,
and I'm here to have a little.
Oh, his brains were eggs.
Oh, good.
Um, at all, I completely agree.
I just think we as a collective have to come together and the royal we.
Tear these motherfuckers apart, limb by limb, because there's no other way.
The only way out is through.
Yeah.
Just like we saw with our friend Mr. Omlet.
I'm not really an eye for an eye person.
I don't quite believe in that,
but sometimes to fall asleep,
the way I soothe myself,
is what if we just all put them in a room
and we lock the door?
And then their punishment
is just the cruel and unusual punishment
is each other.
And I'm not specifying who we're talking about.
I'm just saying,
what if we just all,
we put them all in one big room?
Yes.
What if it's a small room?
Let's call it the trunk of a car.
And then we drive the car off of a,
let's call it a clip.
And we're not saying who.
And we're not even saying who.
And it doesn't even have to be people.
It could just be in the truck of the car.
It could just be cartoons.
It could be the concept of, you know, anything.
We could be talking about anyone or anything.
Adel, yeah, I'm with you.
I got, you have whatever you're doing, you got my full support, pal.
Perfect.
Thank you.
If that's on the ballot come November, I'll throw it a vote.
I'll say, hey, why not?
JPC, I just realized, was it hurtful to watch me sort of come down on you about the omel
stuff and then give Adel my full undying support when he proposed?
violence? Like, is that hard?
I disagree with my omelets and I agree with Adel's thing. So it's, it's all, hey,
come November, if I can vote for not me not getting omelets anymore, I'll vote for that as well.
What does it hurt, you know? Yeah. What does it hurt to throw a couple of yeses on the ballot
initiative? JPC can't be served omelets, a countywide ordinance. What does that hurt?
Hards nobody. Aaron, it bakes the question. How are you doing? I'm okay. I'm somewhere between
omelette hell and
wanting to actively do something
because I can't stand it anymore.
So yeah, I'm somewhere on that range.
Okay, sure.
In a healthy place, I think.
Everything's okay.
Rewatching Dairy Girls.
That'll help.
That helps.
Dairy Girls is the Irish show.
Okay, yes.
I feel like I've seen,
I've walked past an episode or two.
I think you would really enjoy it.
I, here's, Adel, have you watched it?
I feel like I've seen maybe a scene or something from it.
I remember it being funny, but I just, I haven't sat down and watched the whole thing.
Is it worth a full watch?
I think it really is.
And I think I had to, I don't know why, but during the pandemic when it came out, I had to start
it like four times.
I think the pilot, something about the tone of it, it felt, didn't quite feel like enough
of like a capital C comedy for me when I first started it.
And now I genuinely think it is up there with arrested development in terms of strongest ensemble comedy casts.
Wow.
It's like that deep of a bench of that many funny people in a show.
It's crazy.
And it's also like you can really get through it in a week.
There's not that many episodes.
It is laugh out loud funny.
And it's gentle soap too.
It's not going to feel like too stressful of a watch right now.
Speaking of gentle soap, Aaron, maybe we could get into some riddles that are like, you know, cleansing and pleasant.
Non-abrasive.
Like one of those, like those dial soaps that foam when you press it down.
I love that.
Oh, I love a little foam when you press it down.
He tricked me into doing riddles.
So riddles I shall do.
Here are some riddles submitted by Daisy.
Thank you, Daisy.
Daisy made some before and after riddles, the kind where there's two overlapping faces.
phrases.
And then she says,
thanks for always
being my favorite
podcast and keeping me
so much company.
I work most to solo
as a visual
artist.
So your podcast
really means the world to me.
Thank you, Daisy.
Here are Daisy's riddles.
And I think you'll be,
these are self-explanatory.
I don't think I need to
burn one as an example.
Okay.
A street in New York City
where you can see a play
or get some pretty affordable
furniture.
Broadway Fair.
Yes.
Yes.
A magical school
in the way they accept you
just as you are.
Hogwarts and all.

A famous Neil Young song
about a classic lunch choice.
I'm out.
Heart of gold luncheables.
Wait, what is it?
A classic what choice?
A famous Neil Young song.
Okay.
About a classic lunch choice.
Is it heart of gold?
No.
I don't know the catalog.
Old man, take a look at my beef.
Yeah, I had to look this up.
It's always fascinating to me when someone's like,
Neil Young is just like a blind spot for me when someone's like, oh yeah,
Neil Young, I'm like, I don't know, man.
Keep on rocking in the free world market groceries.
It's about a woman.
It's a classic.
You said classic lunch choice. Is it sandwich?
Yes.
Okay.
So is it sand?
Yes.
Castle in the sand?
So, yeah, if that doesn't ring a bell, then I think you're like me and you weren't
familiar with this song.
Cowgirl in the sand.
Now I'd like to see a scene.
You want to see a scene where someone's doing Cowgirl in the Sand?
Yeah, I want to see a scene.
You are two songwriters, and Neil Young has just told you that in the next 20 minutes,
he needs a song called Cowgirl in the Sand.
And you guys are just trying to figure out what they're going to be.
that means in what these lyrics could possibly be about.
Okay, okay, okay.
We've done it before.
We can do it again.
We can do it again.
Sherry baby, we knocked out in three minutes, remember?
Yeah.
You're sure he said cowgirl in the sand?
That's the words that he said to you in the hallway?
Honestly, you could never tell.
He has that Canadian sort of twang.
Uh-huh.
Twang, twang.
That, you know, cowgirls have a twang.
Yeah.
if that's what we're talking about
with cowgirl in the sand, right?
Is he talking about a
girl who is like a girl cowboy?
I think so.
Are you sure he's not talking about the sexual position?
Yeah.
Yeah, fuck, it's probably about fucking on the beach.
But is it?
Because it's Neil Young.
Like, has he done other,
has he had us write other songs about like
fucking in that same way?
Oh, maybe it's about a cowgirl
what would she be doing on the beach?
Okay.
She's trying to lasso the ocean.
That's fun.
That's romantic.
Why don't we just think of words and stuff like that?
Lasso the ocean that could be both sex and cowboy.
Yes, euphemisms.
Yeah, yes, exactly.
And just to get into the spirit, let's do it in Neil's voice.
I need to lasso the ocean.
Mm-hmm.
And just because I can't do Neil, I'm going to do, Bob.
shoe

Adela and JPC, you guys are Adam and Eve,
and Adam has taken Eve out to Olive Garden for their anniversary.
And Eve's like, this is, this seems like a lazy choice and that you forgot.
Gotcha.
I'll be back, right back with the drink quarter.
This is, um, this is nice.
This isn't, this is interesting.
This isn't, yeah.
Isn't this wild?
I found it.
I was, I followed a, what did God call it?
A rabbit?
I followed a rabbit and it led me to this and I went in the, I walked in the door and I was like, whoa.
And I was like, I got to make reservations.
Oh, you've, you've never, you've never been here or heard of here before.
Well, I mean, I just told you I followed a rabbit in here.
Got it.
Yeah, so you just followed a rabbit.
This is a chain.
This is a chain restaurant.
That can't be right.
No, they have these.
Were there only two people on Earth?
Well, we were.
I mean, I guess there's
The waiter.
We just met the waiter.
Oh, I heard God, God told me,
I know sometimes God doesn't tell you everything.
So I just want to.
He still talks to you.
Yeah, we're still, he still talks to me.
He told me that he took a rib out of chilies and made a chilies too.
So that'll be an option if we want that.
Hey, you're not with your, you're not with your boys.
My boys have been like that bear and, uh.
Oh, is Roscoe here?
Is Rock go here?
I'm just saying that this is a date and I want you to kind of treat it like a date and I don't want to hear like your little jokes that you do with like your boys or whatever.
Here is your apparel sprits and we were out of Chardonnay.
So we just call this the white wine.
Can I get an order of soup salad and breadsticks in for you?
I'm so sorry.
Can I ask who you were made from?
Oh, um, my parents' names are Daryl and Karen.
He's here on a date.
I'm not sure why he needs to know who your parents are.
You're at a date, Adam, okay?
Sorry, I'm so sorry.
Yes.
Can we do a...
Oh, my God.
Are you guys...
Oh, my God.
It's you.
Do you want a picture?
Um, no.
I just would love...
I would love...
No, you know, it doesn't matter.
I mean, I don't want to get in trouble with my manager, but...
No, please.
Trouble follows us, like, well, if it's something we can do, we're happy to do it.
Um, I just wanted to, like, ask, like, why?
why you ate that apple.
Motherfucker.
Okay, yeah, soup and salad and breadsticks.
Thank you.
Okay, all right, yeah.
Thank you.
Sure.
Unfucking believable.
Eve, what was that?
You got to get over it.
It's like, it's like meeting, it's like meeting like Reagan and being like, what was it like to get shot?
Come on.
That's totally different.
He deserved it.
I know.
Oh.
Oh.
Is that what you're saying?
No, you're saying I didn't deserve it.
Well, thank you.
No, you didn't.
But I'm saying, I'm glad.
You gave us clothes.
And that's fun because it's a way to express our personalities.
So I don't think anyone's mad at you.
What was that?
What was that that you just did when you said express our personalities?
You hate this.
You hate what I'm wearing.
You think it's too many leaves.
Oh, you would love me.
You would love me to be wearing three leaves.
Like what are your horrors?
Sorry to interrupt.
But the snake over there, the gentleman over at the bar has sent over a apple martini
for you on the house.
Sorry, for which of us?
Oh, he just pointed
just in this general direction, so I'm not
100% sure. I'm sure you can
share it.
No, send it back.
If that snake wants to fuck us,
he's going to have to buy two drinks.
Whoa, this is like a 15
shell martini.
I don't have shells to be wasting out.
No, I'll drink it, I'll drink it.
Oh, so taking me out to dinner is wasting shells?
I didn't say that. I'm just saying
he can't look a gift
snake.
A eventual animal in the mouth. Yeah, I get
a snake, thank you.
Eve, I thought you liked apples,
your reputation.
Just the soup, salad, and breadsticks,
please. Sure.
Just the soup, salad and breadsticks, please. I'm done
with her. I'm done with her.
That's a woman who hates women.
No horses, but we have rigging.
A line?
from an M&M song that became a meme, which, while American and theme, was primarily produced in Italy during the 1960s and 70s.
Huh?
I love this one.
Is it Mom Spaghetti twice?
Is it spaghetti twice?
No.
Spaghetti and then it's a, it's a type of genre of movie.
While American theme, yes, was primarily produced in Italy during the 1960s.
My dumbass thought spaghetti, like the first.
food was not Italian was like an American invention.
Like, oh, that's so funny.
Yeah, we have, we just, we have a noodle type here that we call spaghetti and it is Italian.
I'm sure that there are noodles that were like invented here in America.
What's the fucking fetichita Alfredo, I believe is an American invention?
Oh, of course it is.
But they had fetichita, right?
Like, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But we made it bad.
But we covered it in cream.
We made it impossible to digest.
Isn't it true that like,
tomatoes got introduced to Italy, like after the quote-unquote discovery of the new worlds, right?
Like, tomatoes were from the Americas and they went back to Italy.
I can't remember.
Tomatoes were not native to Italy.
So, like, a lot of the, you know, 500 years ago, I don't think tomato sauces were in Italy at all.
But I think of the tomato sauce is being, like, pivotal to Italian food.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, they call their sauce gravy, but we don't.
I don't know it's tomato.
It's a crushed tomato.
Part of me would love to eat food from like 500 years ago.
I bet it was bad.
I bet it was pretty bad.
Yeah, you're not, it's also going to probably make you sick.
Although some of it's probably pretty good.
But I think like, especially for our modern palettes, like salt was like a rarity.
Yeah.
I'm like, I think food was pretty just like, hey, here's the.
the food. I wonder. I would love to see, like, or like to read something about, like, what food was
like 500 years ago. I remember reading a lot of, when I was reading a lot of like Georgia R.
Martin, stuff like that, I remember being like, oh, man, I've never had mead. And they always
make mead sounds so good of like gulping down mead. And then I tried mead and I was like,
oh, no, this is rough. The funny thing about mead is you're like, whoa, yeah, like mead. But
then you don't see it anywhere. You're like, oh, no.
like beer won out big time.
Like the reason why you don't have meat anymore is because beer's way better.
The, um, I think that like the food wasn't like genetically modified.
You know how like we fixed bananas to make them look pretty?
Like the cabin dish banana and all that stuff.
Yeah.
But I bet there's like more nutrients in the vegetables and fruits that they had then and less
chemicals.
So maybe people didn't have.
They didn't have what like the biodiversity that we have now because there was no like,
things couldn't cross, like, great distances.
So it's like, you know, whatever that was growing over here, like, never made it to Italy.
It's like the tomato never made it there.
So it's, yeah, it's interesting.
I don't know.
I think, like, well, they stayed alive.
Enough of them were able to stay alive with what they were eating.
Much more localized.
Cotton candy grapes.
Yeah.
Oh.
Showing a person from the past, like a TV show.
Giving them one cotton candy grape.
They'd be like, what the fuck?
Okay, I do want to see a scene.
JPC, you are someone in the current era.
Aaron, you are a time traveler who somehow made it to our current time,
and JPC is showing you a TV show.
Oh, oh, ah.
Oh, I'm so God.
What has happened to me?
I was just going, I was in the field, and I was tending to my crops, and, oh, oh, I've beamed here.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, no, I wouldn't know that word.
I'm suddenly in a different place
What witchcraft is this?
Hey, calm down, calm down
My wife's a witch, my wife's a witch
No, no, no, no, no, your wife's not a witch
Your wife's not a witch, this happens all the time
I think a time traveler left a machine in that field
I get people like you in here all the time
You are from a different time
And you have traveled through time into my time
Sit down on the couch
This is a couch, it's awesome
I'm watching TV
I'll kind of catch you up as to
as to what's happening.
What?
So this is like Sherlock
but he's like a kid but not like a kid kid kid
He's like 19.
It's like Sherlock but he's like 19
But it's all like the same
But like here's the thing though
He's friends with Moriarty in this one
Because their whole thing obviously
I don't have the context for this
I'm explaining the context
He's friends with Moriarty in this.
Don't get mad at it.
me, I time traveled. If you came back to me, I would be nice. I'd let you call my wife a witch.
It's basically, so it's the guy that did snatch. You probably haven't seen snatch. Have you seen
Lockstock? No. Okay. Well, I don't know as other movies. But like a British, it's a British or Irish.
So I think Moriarty is Scottish. But like Sherlock, I think is like England. It's, you know,
and honestly, I'm not even too good with the accents anyway, so I don't really know.
I just know that it's like, it does sound a little different, but they're kids, but not kids.
Anyway, Guy Ritchie.
Okay, amazing.
Produced it.
I don't think you directed it.
I'm going to write this down.
Maybe the pilot.
This isn't the pilot.
This is episode four.
The Coney Doyles are going to be rich.
Talk slower. Talk slower.
I'm writing this down.
And honestly, I've been kind of on my steam deck while I'm watching it, so I'm not exactly
100% sure.
Like, what's going on in the show?
What's going on the show?
But, oh, and then also, Colin Furth was in it.
Colin Firth
Twist
You've returned
Ah yeah
You were you were
Zapped away
Where did you go?
What did you learn
We're gonna be rich
Motherfuckers
If you're a witch
And I'm Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
See
That's who wrote Sherlock Holmes
Right
Yeah
Arthur Conan Doyle
I have to say every
word as if it's a word I've never heard before
Oh, I love that.
We're going to do one more of Daisy's riddles, and then we're going to move on.
What TV show would you show someone from the past to, like, comfort them or get them up to speed?
Introduce them to the, like, concept of TV?
Yes.
I think for me, I think double there because you don't.
At all.
Hold on.
Adel!
Adel!
Let me plead by case.
Adel.
Let me plead by case.
I cannot think of a worse one.
I actually have you'd given me six days to come up with a worst one.
What is Gack?
If you show someone, Frazier or, you know, Seinfeld or something, they're going to be so confused.
We never have chosen that.
If you show them a family of four, sliding through a mouth filled with banana cream pudding.
sure looking for a flag that's that's not only universal yes how do you say universal but for time
it's time universal time reversal anyone in the history of time understands a family having fun
in a messy situation you know what here's what i do this is a genius idea this is a million
dollar idea someone comes from the past you show them a period piece from where they're from yeah
because then they'll be like oh it looks similar enough
that I'm like from I'm getting and then you move on to be like and next Frazier we got to watch
Frazier it's so funny but first you watch Bridgeton or whatever to like let them know like yeah yeah
this is this is kind of what it was like yeah I'm curious if the the whole time they'd be like
actually you show them down in Abbey and you're like and they're like oh great this and then you
show them like some like um alternate reality like man in the high castle or like uh handmaids
tell him, like, and this is what the world is,
and then they get all freaked out, and then you take them to
Applebee's, you're like, nah, bitch, just
get it, this is it. It's, it's
regular, you can just get steak fries or whatever.
I think I'm showing
them,
hmm, cocoa melon.
Wow.
Yeah. Disgusting.
Yeah, something just really brain
melty. I'm showing
them bluey, and then the second they
meet an Australian person, they're like,
Oh my God, I thought y'all were dogs.
I thought y'all were only dogs.
Here's Daisy's last riddle.
A way to confuse others while pleasuring yourself.
Is this?
Wait, why did I think that they were all?
This one's a little bit.
Herky jerkying off.
Okay.
No, but that is now a part of my vocabulary forever.
A way to confuse others.
Misdirection.
Misdirection.
No.
What are we doing?
What's the game?
There's no game.
No home, man.
There is no game.
What do I win, Alex?
Honey, honey, close the blinds.
Mr.
Erection is coming to the door.
I'd like to solve the puzzle, Drew.
What do I win?
That's so funny.
A way to confuse others?
Trick?
Yeah.
Yes.
A way to.
to confuse others while pleasuring oneself, but I would switch those, and that the order is different.
So pleasuring oneself is what we get first. Master bait and switch? Yes, master bait and switch.
Masterbate and switch. I'm going, I would like to see a scene. That's my Netflix and chill.
Do you guys have Switch to? I'm going to leave it to you guys what we see. What is that?
This is the first time ever that I'm just going to say, I want to see a scene and you guys get to decide what the master bait and switch.
scene is about.
Okay.
Aaron,
can you give us a second?
Yeah.
Hey, JPC.
Uh-huh.
Like Admiral Akbar when screamed, it's a trap.
She's,
this is a trap.
She's trying to get us to be like,
oh,
let's do a nasty,
raunchy little scene.
Yeah.
So we're going to,
we're going to do it,
but we're not going to do
what she wants us to do,
which is a nasty,
raunchy.
We're going to do a scene.
Are you guys ready for the scene?
Hold on, Aaron,
about masturbate and switch,
but it's not going to be,
like, sexual at all.
Yeah.
Let's, ready?
Yeah, let's...
I got it.
Okay, okay, you go.
So you're sure in the hallway,
he said he wanted a song called Masturbate Switch?
I think that's what he said.
It's hard to tell because he's got that, you know,
Canadian twang.
Hey, speaking of Canadian twang,
did you know that all Australian people aren't cartoon dogs?
What?
Yeah.
They can't be right.
I just met one.
And it was, he looked, he looked normal.
I mean, he still talked like a cartoon dog
and everything.
Heather.
Heather.
Are you saying...
Heather, come hither.
Are you saying
Heather or hither?
We zoom out and they're both masturbating.
Showing somebody from the past masturbate and switch.
I get it.
It's universal.
I get it.
It appeals to me.
Okay, should we go on a break?
Should we take a break?
That took a lot out of me.
I'm being honest.
There's a big puddle on the floor, and I'm seeing I think most of that used to be in me, and now it's on the floor.
Ross and Rachel were on a break?
You got it.
Now, back to the path.
I'm pretty smug this year, you guys.
For Mother's Day, I got my mom exactly what she wanted.
Smug.
Oh, the acronym, smart, beautiful.
Oven
And
Gorgeous
Okay
I got my mom an aura frame
And I filled it with photos
Of the two of you
Because she's a huge fan
So now when she's sitting in her living room
She can go
Oh I love that picture of JPC
Oh I love that picture of battle
Oh I love the picture of me and the boys
And Cabo together
Ah
Erin we're getting into a kind of a gift of the magi situation
Because I got my you
Anora frame full of photos of
mom and Adel.
What did you do, Adel?
It seems like you also did
something like that? I got, yes, I got my mom
or a frame, but I just fill it with photos of Madonna.
Oh, I guess I'll die.
Another day. No, it's from her
tour where she had the cowboy hat. What was that tour?
It's like a green cowboy tour.
It doesn't matter because with ORA, you get free

We're talking about M-A-D-D-D-D-D-U-S-A.
Yeah, the singer.
Madonna.
We've ever said the same thing.
Ah.
Sorry, I'm just looking at myself in the mirror.
You guys, I don't, I don't think I really like my clothes right now.
I think I need a spring refresh.
Oh, Aaron, what kind of stuff are you looking for?
Yeah.
Like, like stylish, timeless pieces, like maybe like a raincoat and like a cashmere, like, sweater that's, like, transitional from winter to spring.
Oh, Aaron, I would not wear a cashmere sweater.
over a raincoat. It's going to get absolutely ruined if there's rain. I'm putting it together.
That's not what you meant. Okay. Aaron, have you heard about Quince? Quince makes high quality
everyday essentials using premium materials like 100% European linen and their insanely soft,
flown it, active wear fabric. They have linen pants and shirts that are lightweight,
reasonable and comfortable, basically the perfect layer for spring. The pants strike the right balance
between laid back and refined, so you look put together without trying too hard. Aaron, is that what
you're going for? Yeah.
Okay. Well, Aaron, also, you silly goose, the best part about Quince is that their prices are 50 to 60% less than similar brands. How? You're screaming at me. Aaron, please stop screaming. How? Quince works directly with ethical factories and cuts out the middlemen. So you're paying for quality, not brand markup. Everything is designed to last and it makes getting dressed easy. I have a purse from Quince that I have people stop me when I'm walking around L.A. to ask me where I get it because it looks very expensive.
but it's not, it's going to like last me years and years. I also have a ring from there that I love.
They've got home stuff that's timeless and awesome, incredible rugs, curtains.
They've got baby stuff. They've got baby stuff that I purchased. That's very cute.

Aaron, you're wearing your purse.
You should.
Actually, you're pulling it off.
And I look incredible.
Okay.
Adel, Aaron, I've seen the movie.
I've read the book.
I'm all about Project Hail Mary nowadays.
And I don't want to brag, but I have actually built something that is pretty cool
and kind of relates to a sponsor of the show.
If you know where I'm going.
Oh, who's a little rock friend here?
So this is Adel?
This is Rocketette.
Oh, Rockett Money.
This is Rocket Money.
He is an A...
Oh, like the app that I love.
Oh, man.
Rocket Money is a personal finance app that helps find and cancel unwanted subscriptions,
monitors your spending, and helps you lower your bills so you can grow your savings.
Yeah, I had a subscription, speak of the devil.
I had a subscription to the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall.
and I was losing money handover legs and thank God Rockett Money caught it.
Don't mention hands and legs around Rock at Money because he doesn't have kind of,
don't worry about it, buddy.
Look, all you need to know is that you didn't get your name from the app.
You're your own guy.
I love you.
I found you in space.
And Rocket Money has automatic transaction categorization across accounts.
Plus customizable categories and tags to reveal spin.
patterns. You can save for like a big event, like it helped me save for my wedding celebration,
or you can use it to set budgets and goals, which is something that I love setting,
and I use it daily, weekly, monthly for that as well. It has canceled so many unwanted
subscriptions. It has saved users over 880 million in canceled subscriptions. I know we're
always signing up for free trials for things and forgetting it. And they're hoping that you're
not going to notice, but you know who notices rocket money. And they go, not on our watch.
Yeah, Rocket Money is like a good wingman at a bar who's like, whoa, you're not buying too old fashions.
You're buying one.
And don't worry, but I'm not going to forget about you when this ads over.
I'm going to be really good friends from space because we were in space together.
So it's not going to be a situation where I'm not going to forget about you.
Hey, Aaron, that's just a rock with eyes drawn on, right?
Yeah, I see the same thing you see.
Plus, you can set automated savings goals in Rocket Money so you can grow towards goals with adjustable amounts and frequencies.

It's real.
I love you, Daddy.
Oh, GPC.
Guys, I was doing that.
I was doing that with my mouth.
I'm holding it.
Oh.
Oh, yeah, there's a hand on the rock.
Well
Well
Okay guys
For the second half of the episode
I want to do like a little word game
That I kind of invented
Fun
Okay I'm intrigued
And basically the way that this game works
Is you take a person that we know's nickname
Not their given name but their nickname
And then you combine it
With like another
Purvey JPC
No no no
It's not one of us
The person that we know
You combine it with another, like, first name, like first name proper.
So, for instance, if I said Santhony, what would you guys think where, you know, what you work backwards from Santhony?
I mean, we work with Anthony Bert, but we also work with.
Oh, Santhony, Sleepo Tony.
Sleepo Tony.
Yeah, Adal got it.
Casey, you are our guest on today.
Wait a second.
Wait a second.
Wait a second.
Wait a second.
Santhony Weiss himself is here.
That is, of course, our friend, Sandy.
Sandy, welcome to the show.
If my name is Santhony in full form, then my nickname would be Stoney.
Hey, Stoney's a pretty cool nickname.
Oh, Casey Stoney.
Come on down, Casey Stoney.
Stony, another thing you might find at the beach, like Sandy.
Having to make up games on the spot.
That's my whole life.
Not have to, want to.
You can find Sandy on.
the beach, Stony, Sharky.
Are compelled to.
Can't not do.
Sharky and Stony feel like names of like your grandpa's friends.
Like they don't feel like common, like nowadays nicknames.
What Stony does?
Stony and Stony and, yeah, they sound like characters from a Richard Linklater film.
My wife talks about her ancestors and their brothers who were all had Yiddish nicknames like
Smokie and.
Smoky?
Is that like the Yiddish version of Smoky?
It probably is.
Yeah. And they were all gamblers.
Isn't Schmokey your middle name, Adel?
Adel Schmokey Rify.
That's what happens because Adel married a Jewish woman, so he had to take a Jewish middle name.
That is law.
Also, Schmokey used to leave character in Jewish Friday.
Oe, you got knocked the fuck out.
I was about to make a joke about Friday translating into Yiddish, but I,
I don't know what it is.
I've never heard it.
I don't think we've ever talked about it in my life.
Friga.
Friga.
Frigga.
I think they don't talk about Friday.
Oh, Shabbat would be Saturday, I suppose.
But Frightik is Friday.
Fritik in Yiddish.
That's the movie.
That's the movie version of what Yadal was talking about.
I love to learn.
I love to learn.
What did Sandy get Friday on Letterbox?
Let's see.
Let's get an update on that.
to a month ago or whatever.
That movie from also like, what, 30 years ago?
Hey, phenomenal movie.
Yeah.
They made a sequel, didn't they?
Oh, yeah, next Friday.
They did not call it Saturday.
I think it was Friday, next Friday, and then the third one.
Friday after next?
Friday after next, maybe.
Was it or no, Friday, another Friday, next Friday, and then the Friday after next.
Wasn't there four?
Oh, maybe.
If you guys were in it.
Check Sandy's letterbox.
Let's see.
Let's see what he gave all four of them.
Wasn't the horse named Friday?
Oh.
It's a call back to 40 minutes ago.
Sandy, you are always doing this where you kind of bring it back to puzzles and riddles and whatnot.
So I got to ask, what have you brought us today?
Oh, good of you to ask.
I have brought a reprise of a game I ran about a year ago that unfortunately has to do with sports,
but I made so many of them that I thought I would bring them back and see if you guys
can get the rest.
This is going to feel like a victory lap
where I fell the first time
and now I'm going to perhaps fall again.
Looking for you.
I'm ready.
I wouldn't call it a victory lap.
Yeah, it's another lap.
Yeah, it's another lap.
And Prifontaine can still get you pregnant.
Someone laughed you on the way to their victory run.
Exactly.
A victory lot.
Yeah.
The good news is you have to know nothing about sports itself.
You just have to know the names of professional sports teams.
Got it.
The way this works is,
going to give you a clue about how two teams might compete in another activity based on their names.
They need to tell me what names I'm talking about.
These are team names in professional sports leagues in North America.
That's the bounds in which this game works.
So, for example, if I said what two professional sports teams might compete in Pokemon or American politics would be
alternate way to phrase it.
You would say the Cincinnati Reds and the St. Louis Blues,
Reds and Blue is a...
Reds and Blues.
Our Pokemon game.
Previous ones we did were like casting spells,
the Wizard and the Magic,
being at a jacuzzi, the Jets and the Heat, et cetera.
Okay, got it, got it.
Yes.
All right.
Which two teams might compete in a competition of about car repair?
Car repair.
Okay.
Is there a team that's called the Jazz?
That seems like it could be a team, right, Adel?
There's a lot of athletes called jacks.
There's Mike and the mechanics, but that's a band.
Car repair.
Well, the Oilers, the Edmonton Oilers.
Wow.
That's not even one I considered, but, well, wait.
Oh, right, because I was thinking the Oilers were defunct, but that's, that's the NFL team, the Oilers, but the Edmonton Oilers are defunct, too?
Wait.
There's two.
Yeah.
I think they're around.
Do the Oilers?
I thought the team was a lot.
There is a defunxed team called the Oilers, right?
Yeah, they turned into, I believe.
Texans.
Yes.
The Texans.
One of those.
Oh, my God, we're doing so bad.
Anyway, oilers, sure.
Pick two more.
Oh, how kind of you.
So we didn't get it.
No, he didn't get it.
Car repair.
I'm sorry.
Car repair.
What do we know about cars?
Engines, carburetors.
Tires.
Tires.
Oh, the Detroit Pistons.
Pistons.
This is one.
Okay.
And this is the same sport.
but not the same league.
So basketball.
So what is an astro?
Huh?
No.
Is that a part of a car?
Something to do with space.
It's the same sport but not the same league?
Oh, is there two leagues in baseball?
This is another NBA team.
This is not a coincidence.
Often the WNBA teams have a name that corresponds to the NBA team from the same city.
So not coincidentally, the WNB team and WNBA team from Detroit also has a car-related name.
The mufflers.
And that's a pun.
Adult, that's so funny and so.
If they did it, it's so disrespectful and so funny.
The Pistons and the mufflers.
Ladies and gentlemen, your Detroit catalytic converters.
Oh, wait, I'm so wrong about this.
It's not Detroit.
So I got boilers and pistons, but those aren't the two car-related teams.
Since you lied to us, can you tell us what city it is?
Yeah, I did lie.
However, technically the Detroit Metro Air is getting a women's national basketball team in 2029.
They're going to be called the shock, which would also apply.
This is the Sparks, the Los Angeles Sparks, the city that you live in, Erin.
Sparks because of Spark Plus.
I've made like five factual errors already in this round.
So we're one question in.
What was the other one?
Sparks and Huff. Pistons.
Oh, it was Pistons.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, pistons, literally named.
And I guess you could say the pacer's because that's a pace car, but it doesn't seem right.
That doesn't, yeah.
All right.
Which two teams would be good in a competition about fabricating slash making things up?
Now, I'm going to tell you something to remind you that there are a lot of homophones at play here.
So including in this answer set, you've got to think very homophonically.
Oh, the Lions.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The Detroit Lions.
The Salt Lake City, Kashmir.
What?
I make sense.
I make sense.
Here's the thing.
If they do make a WNB team in Salt Lake City,
Salt Lake City is Utah Jazz.
And who goes to a jazz club,
but somebody in Kashmir.
That's right.
Yeah, but explain to me how the cash beer
connects to the making stuff up part.
No, that's your job.
Aaron just made it up.
Oh, okay.
Cashner is not a real thing.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
There we go.
Okay, so making stuff up,
we have lions for Detroit Lions
Dreamers.
The Chicago Bulls, shits.
The Chicago Bulls.
Wow.
That fucking rules.
Good one, Adol.
Thank you.
Not using it.
Your thing was fine, but Adel's answers were great.
Thank you.
As we've established,
Sandy does not think of all the answers.
Adel's thinking of way more answers so far
than Sandy has not up.
What about two teams that would be good at DJing?
DJing a party.
Jazz.
The jazz?
Yeah.
Nice one.
Stay in that same part of the country.
Oh, Seattle Super Musics.
Nevada.
The Sonics, I mean.
Yeah, Super Sonics.
Turn tables.
The jazz and the, hmm.
Oh, Houston.
Houston Rock it.
Yeah.
That's better than what I had.
I had Rockies.
Chicago Fire.
But I like,
Rockies, Rockies.
What was the one you had, Sandy?
The Rockies, the Colorado Rockies.
Oh, yes, yes.
I like Rockets better.
It's a bunch of better.
Yeah, Rockies and Rockets.
You're right.
Adela is coming up with the answers.
And DJ, if I hire a DJ, they better rock it or else they're not going to pay it.
Right.
They'll still get paid.
I'm sorry.
No, you better do a perfect set or you don't get paid.
That's awesome.
Hey, man, I'm looking at the invoice here and you didn't play Herbie Hancock not even once the whole night.
So I'm going to have to dock you, bro.
It's so funny to just dance party
And then put out headhunters and be like
Everyone loved the dance floor
All right, how about two teams that are
Competing at Traveling on Vacation
Traveling on vacation
Traveling on vacation
I don't think it's going to be basketball
Because traveling is really bad in basketball
So I think that they would avoid that
I'll say one is football and one is hockey
Okay
Okay. Football and hockey. Traveling. Traveling. Oh, chargers. Because on vacation, you're going to put it all over a credit card.
Absolutely. I'm going to say, because you need a pack a charger.
Oh, hey, that's something I always forget. And you don't need a pack it. There's targets everywhere.
You said football and hockey?
Oh, the Boston. Oh, great, Gary. Our vacation is Bruins.
Give it to them. Give it to them.
Please, Mr.
Please.
I just
The dogs have the
Walla Walla Griswolds
Wait, what was this?
Oh, oh, vacation.
Vacation, they go to Walla, Wala, Washington.
Wait, one of the teams is the
Walla Walla Griswold?
No, I'm making a joke about the movie
Vacation where they go to Walla Walla.
The Walla baseball team is actually called the
Sweets.
How about that?
Oh, my God, and their logo looks like a massive
garlic bulb.
I will say minor league baseball teams have the best mascots.
Yeah.
It's unbelievable how good there.
There's a Montgomery biscuits.
Like, come on.
Are any of these minor league teams or are these major?
No, no.
These are ones here now.
Okay.
Have we gotten either?
Hockey.
I just don't know hockey teams so well.
What are some hockey teams?
The mighty ducks, the blackhawks, the Bruins.
The Bruins.
One of them is quite very clearly related to traveling.
The Capitals.
The trains
Airplanes.
Airplanes is close.
Wings.
You could say the jets, but it's not what I'm after here.
It is the flyers.
Frequent flyers.
And then what else do you do before you start, before you leave for the airport?
The Packers.
Packers.
Packers and flyers.
God damn it.
Those are good.
Good one, Sandy.
How about, oh, thank you.
How about competing in hair cutting?
Clippers.
Oh, great one, Japs.
And I quit and I retire
The impulse cut your bang
The New Orleans fades
The Nets and that's a hairstyle
The Hornets Beehive
Adel
If I had your brain
I would be happy every day
I would be happy every day
Ignorance is bliss
Okay the Clippers
So one of them was basketball
Did you say what the other one is?
The other one is, I should have said, it's soccer.
So you're not.
Soccer.
So good luck.
Oh, is this like internet?
No, that you said.
No, MLS soccer.
So we all know it's out of, it's a four-l-old.
Oh, I have a Joe-cancer.
Can I do a joke-cancer?
Joe-Chancer.
Who's Joe-Camp.
A joke.
Hey, it's me joke-cancer.
I'm an old comedy club.
Well, Bors-Belt comedian who smokes a pack.
Every-Same.
They call Joe Camel.
or they found two lumps.
My joke answer was the Seattle foahawks.
That's good.
That's fantastic.
Thank you.
Thank you.
It is a word related to a certain kind of hairstyle, for sure.
I truly, for, is that a Columbus, Ohio.
And it is illiterative, sort of, it starts with a sea.
Columbus.
I have, for some reason, I've known this.
Cincinnati.
It is the crew.
The crew.
Crew cut.
Yeah.
I have so many friends from Columbus that have crew jerseys and a,
It's like something I've been like vaguely aware of for so long on it.
Do you think.
I couldn't have named it.
Do you think the crew is a reference to just like a team of people or is it like a rowing reference or something else?
It's Cincinnati.
It's Columbus.
Is Columbus landlocked?
Where's Columbus?
Columbus is in the middle of a state.
Yeah.
It's not rowing.
I guess it's just, hey, we're a bunch of friends.
We're the crew.
Yeah.
Their minor league baseball team used to, I don't know if it still is.
It used to be the Columbus Clippers and their mascot was a big sailboat.
So I don't know if there's something.
article going on in Columbus.
Hey, maybe there's a river.
That's so funny if that's what it is, though,
if it's crew just means like group.
It's like, we're the team.
Do I dare suggest that
it's a reference to how
to Christopher Columbus, who did a lot of sailing?
Okay.
Oh, maybe.
He had a clipper.
He had a crew.
I guess so.
Yeah, maybe.
It's named after him.
Someone should tell us.
Bad look for you.
Bad look for you, Columbus.
I don't know if I want to know.
I think I'm okay not knowing this one.
That's one of those things I'm okay, not knowing.
Don't tell me if you know it.
All right, how about thievery, competing in thievery?
Again, we're talking about Pittsburgh Steelers.
Steelers is correct.
Can I ask you guys as a brief break?
Something that you're okay, not knowing.
I think about this all the time, and I never look it up.
When you're driving on the highway,
sometimes you will see a thing that's called like a crash investigation site,
and it'll just be like a place off to the side of the highway.
I don't know what the fuck that's about.
They are studying the Dave Matthews album there.
Bound.
Bown, bown, bough.
Their weed budget is out of control.
Put it on again. Put it again.
I heard something.
I heard something. Play it backwards.
Play back. Play back. Play back.
That would be funny if every time you pass one of those, it's like a big area where cars could hang out, there were just like four dads, like, dick it around with electric guitars and just like, she whacks up and stuff.
All right, boy, see you again, this time tomorrow.
All right, take care, everyone, bye-bye.
Turn off the lights.
Shut down the podcast.
Okay, so Steelers, we got.
thievery. We had Steelers and,
is there like a
Barron's?
Oh, that's good.
The league team or something?
No, it is basketball.
Basketball?
It's not a word that you use very often to
describe stealing, but it does
mean that. Phonetic.
Pilfer. What about the Ravens?
Don't Ravens steal? They love treasures.
They love shiny treasures.
It's a
basketball team.
Mm-hmm.
and it involves stealing
and they're not called the finger smiths
which is too bad because that is a radical name
for a...
The finger smiths.
Jesus Christ.
Trailblazers.
No.
Lakers.
The lifters.
The oilers.
The Mavericks?
It's a word that...
Maverick in that Mel Gibson movie,
Maverick took everyone's money.
I mean, Maverick,
Top Gun Maverick took everyone's money at the boxoff
This kaboo.
That's right.
Thank you.
I wouldn't call it stealing.
Stole my heart.
Those bedroom eyes.
Oh.
What about, um, the, this is football, I think, but the Vikings, right?
They, they were, this is a hominound for their pillaging.
That's true.
Pillagers.
The pillage people.
No.
It is a short, one syllable word that means to steal, uh, you like to steal.
Uh, you like to steal something small and very quickly.
Nick to Nick.
You've got it.
The Knicks.
Oh, that's so smart.
The Knicks.
But isn't, okay.
Yes.
Short for Knickerbocker.
But they're just called the Knicks, right?
They're not called the Knicksbockers.
I mean, I think, like on their tax forms, they're probably called the Nickerbockers.
No, they have one of those, like, phony pass-through names, like, very cool, very smart productions or whatever, you know.
That's right.
Yeah.
Cool guy doing stuff productions.
Now, they should have been called the Bockers.
that would have been fun.
Instead of the Knicks.
You know, they shorten it the other way.
Bump, bum, bum, bum.
And it's chickens as the mascot.
It's the bar.
Yeah, they're, Bok, Bok, Bok, Bok.
Love.
What is that melody?
Pock, Bok, Bac.
Hey, I'll tell you what.
It could be Bok.
Probably is it.
Probably Matesover or Mozart or something else.
Metsu.
Oh, Bok.
Mozart's best friend.
That's the St. Louis Broms.
Does anyone know is Bump, Bump, B, B, B.
Is that Bajos?
Is that Beethoven?
Does anyone know?
It's Beethoven.
Okay, good.
Oh, you know, there was a crossword theme once in the Times that was really fun.
It was like, it was that melody.
So I think it's like, da, da, da, which is maybe E, E, E, I shouldn't say it wrong.
But let's just say it's E E, B flat.
And so it was like you write an E and then you run an E and then you wrote an E.
And then you wrote B flat and then, or it's probably E flat.
And then the crossword included the letters E, F, L, A, T in a different way.
So it was one box that contained E flat.
So I was having a hard time figuring it out because I don't know music that well.
And my son, who at the time was probably like 11 or 10 or 11 was like, oh, maybe I figured out that it was B, B, B, B, B, Fla, or whatever I said.
And I said it out loud and he's like, he like, he like hummed it out loud.
And he's like, oh, yeah, that's Beethoven or something like that.
Whoa.
It was awful.
It was awesome and awful at the same time.
They're little sponges.
Oh, they hate their little brains with their smart little brains.
All right.
Yeah.
Oh, no, I think it was, maybe I sang it.
And he's like, oh, that's a B flat.
That's what it was.
is I went da-da-da-da-da and he's like oh yeah that's got to be a B-flat again I think it wasn't a B-flat I think it wasn't
Hey Sandy don't worry about it I said that that was Bach so it's like yeah it's it doesn't matter we could say kind of whatever I'm here
Make a if you're upset with me make a comment on my letterboxed that's right that's right
I take complaints under mr. Holland's opus
only under that
I have whole secret conversations with people in the comment section of mr.
Collins. No one will ever find it.
All right. How about
fishing? Oh, no, thank you. Oh,
no, we're doing more. Fishing. Fishing.
Fishing, okay. Lures, bait, worms, poles.
The kings. Kingfisher, obviously.
Nets. Oh, the nets. Nets.
Nets is right. And the next word is a
fishing term, but maybe not one we use as frequently. If you're
an angler, you would know this term.
Let's see, Rod.
It's hockey.
And we've already mentioned it.
Bruins.
Ice.
Ice fishing.
There must be a team called the something ice, right?
It's hockey.
The Mighty Ducks.
What?
Yeah, dude.
Okay, hockey is tough.
I really don't pay attention to hockey unless it's heated rivalry,
in which case I pay.
Do is it
Is Black Hawk a fishing term?
I'm pretty sure it's not.
It is, I'll just tell you, it is the flyers.
Oh, flyers.
Who said flyers?
Got to be out.
No one.
No one.
I said it.
Oh, earlier.
It was an answer to traveling on vacation.
Yeah.
Oh, I see, I see.
So we've already, so we all should have known about it from having had it be.
I just don't think of a flyer as a, but fly fishing, I guess.
Fly fishing, yeah.
Right.
How about historical battle reenactments?
Well, I mean, that could be Blackhawks, right?
I'm sure that Blackhawks fought the United States in some way.
Probably the other way around.
Probably replace the aggressive.
I wouldn't pursue this line I thought too far.
Okay, okay, so it's...
Battlefield reenactors.
Cowboys?
Very old, you know, like old battles.
Red coat.
One is basketball and one is hockey.
Vikings?
No, Vikings didn't do battlefield reenactments.
One's hockey again?
Yeah.
Oh, the generals?
I think the newest hockey team, let me check.
The generals is good, right?
Can we have that?
No, it's not.
Oh my gosh, there's a team called the Utah Mammoth.
I didn't even know that.
So these are, this is specifically things that are famous
for battlefield recreations,
because the only thing I know about battlefield recreations
is like the Civil War.
It's way older than that.
Like old, old battles.
Like two kinds of entities you would find in a battle.
The Titans.
What would that be?
It was like the Titans versus the gods in the Greek mythology.
I mean, I guess the most teams are named after warring creatures.
Anyway, this one is the hockey team from Las Vegas.
Does anyone know?
Oh, fuck.
Hey, Sandy, I don't know.
Can I say I don't know?
the knights, the golden nights. And the other one
is the Golden State Warriors.
Oh. Oh, Knights and Warriors. Okay.
All right. A couple more.
Yeah, let's do two more. And then we'll,
and then we'll be out of our fucking misery on these.
And Sandy, no more hockey.
I don't want to ever think about hockey again.
He's looking at this list. It's hockey. It's all hockey.
It's all hockey.
All right, I got two more than are not hockey.
Okay, okay. Racing Dodge cars.
Racing Dodge cars. The Rams?
Challengers. No, Rams. Rams. Rams. Rams is.
Rams and chargers.
Rams and chargers.
All California.
All sub in California.
Bull.
I would love if the St. Louis Rams were like,
oh, this is about computers.
Oh, shit, yeah.
Big laptops on their helmet.
All right.
What if I said two at computers,
the Rams and the,
I don't have an answer.
I'm just helping an ad will come up with something.
The buses, the,
Jacksonville, NVIDIA.
The escape keys.
Okay.
How about two more?
Taming bears.
There's three here.
Taming bears?
It wouldn't be like cubs or something like that.
It's not taming bears.
Cubs wouldn't be bad.
These are all the same work in the same way in relation to bears.
They're all kinds of bears.
Oh, the Browns.
The Grizzlies.
Memphis Grizzlies.
Grizzlies.
A lesser known bear, but still very much a bear.
Black Bear, Polar Bear.
It's basketball.
Tardigrade?
Sons.
Tardigrade.
Suns is right.
The sun bears.
I love a sun bear.
Oh, yeah.
Sun bear.

Oh, sorry.

Yes.

Collecting movies on optical disc.
The San Francisco DVDs.
Blue-rays.
The blues.
And the rays.
Yeah.
Good job, Aaron.
Wow, Blu-rays.
I didn't even mean to get that.

Yep.
