This is a HeadGum Podcast. theme song yeah and then did you say that it started oh i don't think i did no i had to ask okay the theme song just ended okay dang it now i think yeah i think what we need to do is start it again okay give me a actually stop it give me a here comes the theme song yeah then when it starts give me a it's playing now okay leave this navalny thing hmm navalny navalny here no have you not heard about it russian man is it navalny is a russian man russian man spy i don't know if we know even what other professions are i don't think there's any way to know uh he farmer he was a um russian man and they they they just killed him which i hate i hate that shit it's to me i wish i'd been there one of the unkindest acts is the murder there are exceptions of course but the callousness yes and the um the lack of humanity

involved in just killing this this russian man i hate i believe he wanted to live am i wrong i mean again i don't know what we don't have all this and i don't really know where where it was on that but no one is allowed to do that when i'm around. Oh, no. And if someone had been like, hey, this is about to go down, and I just wish I had been able to be there and be like, no. This is my Mark Wahlberg on the 9-11 plane. I go, if I had been there when that Navalny stuff happened, I wouldn't have gone down like that. Pete Davidson's dad would have still been here.

There would have been a very loud voice in the room. Thank you for saying that. There would have been a very loud voice in the room. Thank you for saying that. There's been a very loud voice in the room saying, hang on. What are you doing? Excuse me. That's what it is. Pause. Pause button.

Right? We are not going. Let's talk about this. What the heck are you even doing like just very direct think for a moment this is illegal you're being crazy you're being illegal you know like i i it's just not it's they're acting so crazy when they do this but it's unfortunately it's not an isolated incident it's not an isolated incident. It's not the first time.

The Russians have been killed. And other ones have did it as well. In murder style. Yes. Murder style death doing. That's crazy. On the Russian. I wonder if people over there just hurt. I wonder if they're dying of other things over there.

Well, and you bring up an interesting point because here's where my ignorance is starting to show itself a little bit i don't actually know how he died if it was from being killed yeah i don't know what his job was as hayes said who he was and i'm starting to suspect that maybe it was something else what were you picturing when you said that originally i mean like maybe i don't know heart attack people be dying of heart attacks kevin can you look this i hate that as well google but nivalny heart attack don't google it actually don't google sucks now you can google nivalny heart attack you're gonna get five uh sponsored links uh you know to uh um uh cardiac uh hotline.com ad commercial it used to be that

google would show you what you looked for now it shows you who paid the most you can't even google how to eat my food these days without getting all kinds of like advertisers for like potato chip potato chips i'm not trying to learn about different kinds of food no i already have food i'm trying to figure out what to do with it how to eat my food oh have you had this no i haven't into this i haven't googled it i figured out at an early age how i should eat it um you we're trying like a baby i'm actually training like an adult no he's mama birded you know what i mean if you can't figure it out have a you mama birded to yourself no you have a thick black lady do it okay there's a husky just solid woman who just

got too much in there so she wanted to give away some and she just mama birds you so she's not losing out on nothing because she's got an excess okay kevin uh you know remind me to have you google something else later because this sounds like something i might need i got some pics yeah i got pics but don't use google what's what do use now? Because we can't use that. Honestly, back in the day, they would just use the elders. You got to look to the elders. The village elder. The village elder. Look to the elders.

The Orville tradition. Stories passed down, Seth MacFarlane through space, through all of time. Yes, the Orville tradition. You know, I don't even know if we've introduced you can you believe it it's just so natural talking to you there's something so comfortable about having you here when was lamorne here last episode 15 i wanted to say eight right yeah it was in that neighborhood for sure it was that yeah between he was here long ago enough that i ran into him in the studio here the other day and i said uh we were hoping that you could do our podcast that you could do an episode of handbook and he went handbook because it was

long enough ago you don't remember that it even existed 18 and what number is this uh 540 sheesh yeah it's uh it's been too long and you're entering the space now aren't you and What number is this? 540. Sheesh. Yeah. It's been too long. And you're entering the space now, aren't you? Yeah. You've seen us test the waters. I crawled in there back in episode 18, didn't I? That's what planted the seed for me.

Yes. And then 530 or so episodes of water and sunlight and nurturing the soil. And now there's a little sprout beginning to bud, isn't there? Yeah. Of Lamorne's own podcast. Yeah, a little growth there. I'm excited about it, you guys.

It's called The Morning After. Mm-hmm. The Morning After. Well, we're debating if we're going to keep the... Okay. If you don't,

we would love that. We would just love to, like, if you're just, like, unloading it and you don't, we would love that. We would just love to if you're just unloading it and you don't need it, we actually need it. Anything to refresh the brand. Are you just Hollywood Handbook? Yeah.

And we're hoping to Google sucks now, but we're hoping we get more autocompletes from things that people are actually typing the like you're typing it like crazy or if you know who was Hollywood the handbook ah that's interesting well because well because you just being Hollywood handbook that implies that there are multiple Hollywood handbooks and no one goes there are number one there are there's at least one other one yeah well there's at least

two i think yeah really yeah you ever get into any competition with them like who's running there we would love that as well yes for them to consider us as competition because one of them launched recently with like a big kind of press push and they didn't seem to have come across us in the lead up to launch. So that makes me feel like, no, we're not in a competition with them. They can't see us. You should be in a league of your own. 590 episodes.

That's a lot. Fingers crossed, yeah. But what am I saying? It's going to happen. You guys get that call Joe Rogan got for $250 million yet? You guys get that? Not that phone call. I've been getting a lot of weird numbers though calling me yeah it's been weird yeah let me see what because so where did that call come was it from san luis obispo

i'm not sure where he got his call from okay it could be somewhere i got a call from san luis obispo i mean that that's where Spotify's headquarters is. Oh, wow. Should I call them back? Here, hang on. Hello, I'm sorry we missed you. The reason for the call was to help homeowners reduce their water and power bill

through programs. Well, well, well, well, let's hear him out. What better way to reduce your water and power bill than by getting $250 million? Yeah, certainly pay for several eco-friendly upgrades. I mean, we do programs. This is a program.

This is a program, yeah. Yeah, no, they're mentioning programs. We're on a program. And that may have been the call. It could have been. I feel embarrassed to call them back so quickly she was so friendly well you gotta play yeah i almost felt like she was kind of like like she was a little bit was it to me or you i don't think she seemed like she was kind of one of us i feel like i don't know it's like she's kind of you think she's that crazy i don't know i don't want to probably not that probably not that no maybe not that but it seemed

like she was down to like have a meal and if it goes you know from the meal to dessert right eat a big ass meal just chow down right? I also think she was automated. I didn't want to break that to you guys. I really didn't. She seemed awfully... We will be automated. I've been automating so far. I'm excited to mate

with someone else. Mostly it's been automating for this old cowpote. Hit the sneaky link. What is that? mate with someone else you know it's mostly it's been automating yeah if we can connect and um yeah hit the sneaky link what what is that the sneaky link yeah tell me about the sneaky link because we we had a list of things we want to ask about that was the main one married married woman at work she shouldn't be you shouldn't be sleeping where you shouldn't be touching her that's a sneaky link married woman at workOW? And you, well, you gotta be... What's that?

I don't wanna say it. It's nasty. I don't wanna say it. So, Morton, and I don't know, but... You gotta do that? He's doing something with his mouth that... What you were gonna say is nastier than that? Yeah. Nastier than the sound?

Because it could be... It could be that? It could be that. It depends on how... Because she's at work? Yeah. Nassier than the sound? Because it could be. It could be that? It could be that. It depends on how. Because she's at work? Yeah, because at work she sits all day and she's got swass. That's the sneaky link? Yeah.

The sneaky links for that. Because when she goes home, her husband's like, oh, she just had a fun day at work, but he doesn't realize she's been entered. I see. Yeah. Business idea. Sneaky links golf course. You don't know she's been entered. I see. Business idea. Sneaky Link's golf course. You don't know where the hole is.

No flags. You got to figure it out. You just keep hitting it until it goes away. Then it's hard to find it. Hit it until you find the hole, right? That's the slogan. Sneaky Link. How's it been treating you so far? Yeah, how's podcast world, man?

I know. Believe me, nobody knows better than us. The oldest profession. This game can be brutal. Well, it's the Orville tradition. Yeah. It's been great, man. I've been, you know, getting some love.

It has? You just started? It's been getting some love. It has? You just started? It's been great? That makes me want to throw up. I've already gotten the call. I've already gotten the call. Oh yeah, you got the call. I got the call already.

I have two episodes in and I got the call. You got the call? About the programs? It wasn't $250 million, but Spotify called us there that i got the call you got the call yeah we've got the programs yeah but we've been off it wasn't 250 250 million but we did spotify called us and offered us 75 million dollars wow that's significantly less than 250 so it don't feel so bad yeah 75 million bucks 75 so how do we break through i guess how do we get to like the level of some of the big pimpin' players? It's Hollywood.

I think you've got what it takes. I think you deserve to be. I don't think you should be playing second fiddle to Mr. Joe Rogan, taking a big pay cut like that. Well, listen, I'm new to the game, and I'm okay to start off at $75 million. You know what I mean? But I'll work my way up there. And you're friends with the bank as well, correct?

Yeah. You're the face of... Beemo. Beemo. Oh, what? Beemo. Beemo. You're the face of Beast Mode.

Beast Mode? Mm-hmm. Mr. Beast sent me chocolate today. I don't know why. Well... Mess your beast. Mm-hmm. Yeah, but anyway...

The chocolatier. I can't eat it. But yes, chocolate tier, I can't eat it, but, um, yes, BMO is the, I'm the, I'm the face of that.

He's like, I sent 1 billion people chocolate. Yeah. And this was, this was their reaction. And he does everyone's reaction. That would actually be great for our show because your reaction would be you on the podcast saying mr beast sent me chocolate i don't know why we're pretty good yeah you get an endorsement from mr beast now you you guys are getting that spotify call i heard someone on the

phone yesterday say this sentence well there's only one mr beast so it's it's true well i guess yeah i certainly couldn't grab the phone hang it up and start explaining something to them like I normally do when I walk by a conversation. This was one. This was unassailable. But the show. So the morning after I describe a little bit of the. What are you doing i forgot the show the little morning after like talk about like is there a song what kind of messed up stuff is going

on oh is there a song it started as the the LeMorning After Pill, which is why I would keep a few of them in my nightstand. Uh-huh. But, you know, then it just turned into a bit of a catchy name. You know, my name is LeMorne, you know. Oh, I love that. Okay. I love that. And are people picking up on that or that's like...

People are stupid. Yeah, it's a little... People are stupid. You go pretty edgy, huh? We need a little of that, you go uh pretty edgy huh we need a little of that you know we do yeah a little bit of a little bit of edge a little bit god knows like jake isn't bringing you know like that's a boring fella uh we need like we like why is he like that we had him he he pulls the envelope oh yeah yeah yeah hang on can i get another look at that i think it's like no no no let me make sure the postage is right on it it's like just

fucking mail this shit yeah no he's he's yanking the envelope for her no uh yeah he he's not pushing the boundaries and certainly we're not um we are the boundaries i like that you've been in this long enough you know you become the boundary that's what but so you wouldn't go further than us or they can stay inside people push on you you've decided to yeah don't feel so good nice to be touched people human touch is like you know like we got like we need it we got skin hunger right yeah skin hunger yeah skin you talk about yeah skin hunger skin thirst yeah oh certain point yeah your skin as an organ doesn't desire touch the same way that the human stomach desires food the human stomach yes yeah desires food a little tummy

tummy action i get it yeah i get it yeah this tummy you know with permission of course because you can't just walk around touching no no no but it is biological you know of course that um after an absence of touch for a certain amount of time you do get a a medically dangerous level of blue balls oh i see i see yeah and it's different like what you know from person to person it's whatever you first made contact with what you know how they make dads take their shirt off now they're like so that's why i like laying on chests yes because because your dad took his shirt off yeah my dad was wearing an eyes onon fleece when he first held me to his chest. And so to me, that's skin.

And we're leaving that on and we don't already have it on. We're putting it on. We're zipping it all the way up. I thought I had blue balls once. My dad had a body glove wetsuit on. Whoa. Sorry, you were talking about your balls.

Sorry. You thought you had? No, I take take that back i thought i had cancer oh okay and it turns out after my friend took me to the doctor uh the doctor asked me if i masturbated often and at the time i didn't and he just had you just had blue balls you had cancer well that's even more dangerous yeah blue balls for sure is even more dangerous. Yeah. It's the kind of thing that obviously the media has turned into a big joke, but we do have a responsibility on the show to talk about things that are affecting the youth.

Like, I mean, the way people talk about it and shows and movies is like, as if it's something to be made fun of. And for me, it's's like let's educate people uh obviously it kills on its own but also most car crashes can ultimately be attributed to yeah i talked to my buddy who's an emt and he said that when you pull a body specifically a male body out of the um out of the wreckage of a car crash that like 95 percent of the time they haven't busted in at least a month and that you it is visible when they're

just when you pull it out i mean there's another blue dangerous blue ball we talk about on the show a lot which is that sonic is a film that killed more people than any other movie in history really yeah yeah i mean think about it it was it was packing the theaters immediately before covid with families that was the last big tentpole film and now we're making the third one and what do we think is gonna happen guys what are we expecting gang like fucking study the history books sonic killed more people than any other movie speaking of a blue ball that's dangerous fuck go ahead make the third one like just see wait and find out i will be staying home

mask on you know it's just like because it's like i actually i don't know i'm crazy i guess i care about health um but you have a show how do we are we on the platforms do you have like uh are we on socials yeah so you can find us on uh apple uh spotify we're on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube. We're everywhere where you consume your entertainment. But what about the socials? Like you need to be posting. We have a dedicated, right? Like a show account. A show account, yes.

The LeMorning After Podcast. That's the handle? It might be the LeMorning After Pod. I'm not 100 sure the show where it all goes down is in the post is in the social media account for the podcast it's not on the actual podcast it's not on spotify like the like you don't get 250 million dollars from like oh people listen to the podcast like advertising the podcast it's on the social media account for the podcast yes and from what it sounds like think about you don't know the handle yeah it sounds like we're pulling dog

shit followers so far think about podcasts that you know about and then ask yourself have i ever downloaded and listened to this podcast and the answer for me most often is no i have not but have i seen clips of them on social media i have and i'll tell you what learn from our mistakes we've never had a single good clip come out of this show yes you guys post clips we thank you i'm so glad you you don't know whether we do or not that would be really bad if you had seen one they are truly truly bad guess what jokes on you the lamorning after podcast that's the handle wow they let you do it actually give you three a couple extra characters well the handle is the lamorning after but you type

in the morning after podcast so you know what you're getting the handle is the morning after yeah wow the guest has to sleep at your home yeah uh in order to get comfortable with me it's like uh being an improv troop you gotta be uh i can be friends for a long time this is reminding me of an improv troop now so then i sleep in in your home i know i wouldn't be a guest but if i if you would i know obviously you don't want me as a guest but i do i would sleep in your home and then we would wake up in the morning and immediately record yeah so but you'd have to sleep in close proximity to me just so we can build some sort of connection they did who was it that would do the podcast in the bed in bed with nick and megan

i produced and record that one he produced and recorded it and they did it in the bed and he curled up at the foot of the bed like a kitty were you really a little lap dog would they nick would they were they a couple or they just like to be yeah nick offerman mega mulally then they would have their guest in between them oh that's nice yeah i have to leave the bedroom not really sustainable but but well you know are they still doing it well they started it right before covet so that made it so yeah again fewer people wanting to get into bed with them yeah they still owe josh our friend a few episodes i'd like to say rather than they started it right before covet they started it right before covid they started it during sonic's reign of reign of destruction they started it as sonic was crippling our nation

we gotta figure out how many like because we're you know we are we post clips the clips are bad but we're still pulling like four bills on there on Instagram like four billion for four or thousand dollars or $100 bills yes oh okay you guys doing like 400 followers and easy yeah yeah yeah and and that's and that's without having any clips that anyone enjoys and you guys think you can help me with mine yeah because i think we are going to yeah i think we will is it are you familiar with the story of the man falling in the hole what sure i mean so will you refresh yeah refresh you want me to tell it if you're

familiar with it if you know it can you tell it to us we've not been able to wrap our heads around this story yet. Yeah, it's real simple. Okay, that doesn't make me feel good. I just told you I don't fully understand it. You know, man walking, man don't look down. Man falling in a hole. But man got to get out of that hole. Okay, yeah. That part I know.

But it's not about what happened to him. It's about the journey. And that's the key. That's the message that everybody misses. That's what I don't understand. I don't know why it's a story. Yeah, it has to be somewhat about what happened to him, right? I mean, in his early childhood, yeah.

His molestation. That I completely missed out on. Yeah, that's... Early childhood thing. That's a failure of listening on my part. I didn't even know that his childhood was in the story. Yeah. But I guess you say he's walking.

You don't say for how long. No. Right. And maybe it's his first steps when you say he's walking. And then we take it all the way up to him falling in a hole. Honestly, it's simpler than that. It's even simpler? Yeah.

He's on a construction site. Okay. Man having a house built. Over a hole. man having a house built over a hole man having a house built on sand sand which cannot stand and the footprints in the sand yes that's right just you say at some point there was only one set of footprints that goes, that's when I fell in a hole. Exactly. Jesus wasn't helping you. You just fell in a hole. A house on sand cannot stand. That's the point of the story.

House on sand and fog. Yeah. Yeah. And fog. Yeah. Yeah. So we need this to be hitting today. We've got two episodes out already.

Shipped, correct? Lasted off. Yeah. Yeah yeah so we're a little uh but those are like beta testing i think we can classify them as and then the actual podcast can start once we really launch this social media blitz yeah um and i think that we'll be able to help you have you seen any of these videos where um let's say like uh here will be like the sort of caption writing on it i'll say like uh showing my grandpa the five million comments uh that we got on the video of him you know, describing which of the Teletubbies can get it or something, you know, like just so they've shown him some young thing. He didn't know he was being recorded. Showing my grandpa the five million comments we got on the video of him saying the Teletubbies can get it.

Here's his reaction. Yeah, I've seen those. Those. We gotta do one do you have a relative who's like old oh yeah not busted actually could maybe like kind of get it them themselves ideally old old or really young oh like or old yes okay but that is and for the if they're really young. Oh. Like, or old. Yes. Okay.

But that is... And if they're really young, can't get it, obviously, but also not busted that they're... No, that wouldn't be get it, but they can't be busted. But they are talking about something that's either too old for them to talk about or too young for them to talk about. Okay. This is why we need the extreme age from them. Yeah.

Because what we're going to show them for them to talk about is something that's like, how are they talking about this? And then we actually, obviously we'll generate 5 million comments. Hayes and I can write a lot of them. Okay. Yeah. And then we can show them the comments. And I wish we could, like, I don't really have any,

all my relatives are like 40, like 46. Your elders are all the same age. I don't have elders, that's what I'm saying. I don't have elders, I don't have youngers. I got 46-year-old people. It's all kind of right in that middle. Yeah, and so I got nothing to offer. Like, I would love to be able to come to this with an old person who can get it.

I don't really have relatives. You know what I mean? Sort of a farmy brat. So essentially what you're looking for is someone. Moved around the farm a lot. Moved around different farms. Yeah. Oh.

Yeah. Yeah. Did you say farie brett uh-huh okay so i so i you know but by the way it shouldn't be our relatives anyway right because it's not for our show our show is done like that happened you're only two in there's a big opportunity here to find a relative not busted either young respectfully they should be adorable old can get it right but median age it's not something you look you're not useful not useful i don't know what i'm looking at it's both too late and too early i was what am i showing them well i was told typically that that was the um the buying age that the the you know i look at my demographics on instagram yeah and that's who's gonna enjoy the video that's why they can't enjoy it they're 46

yeah oh here's a guy same age as me having the same opinion i would not here's this old fuck machine talking about some youthful thing they're trying to guess what uh young slang terms mean right i see now secure the bag and they're going like oh geez um uh don't uh fight off a a a pickpocket and oh, no, that's not what it means. But how funny that the sexy old fuck is having this idea about it. And then, like, the comments are like, that is a better meaning for this. So sexy also is another attribute they must have. Jesus Christ, man. I mean, it's literally the first thing I said.

Yeah, but it's a visual medium. Like, this isn't podcast first thing I said. Yeah, but it's a visual medium. This isn't podcasting. I see. You can't be bringing all this. We got to look, you know? Yeah, I get it. We all got to look. Come on, man.

I especially do, but we all got to look a little bit. The guy's got to look. But I extra have to. Jesus, dude. You extra have to. We all have to a little bit but i really really got i gotta look you know i mean looking at some some old memories i know there's nothing wrong with it but with me there is something wrong with not doing it you know what i mean like yeah and there is something

wrong with how much he needs to do yeah like so there there's aspects of wrongness in my case but like but we all got a little bit but i really really i absolutely this is an extreme version but the the core principle of having to look is pretty universal and we do need to i used to frequent a site uh as a child called elderly butts there's a it was an adult site it was adult so i thought that was elderly so like we got that just from just from that part yeah extreme elderly okay um extreme adult yeah senior cytosine yeah i don't know yeah that could be one of the comments you know i mean this is one of the five million comments you could find old people that don't um like you ever go to a nursing home yeah you ever been i used to go sing to old people. You could go there. You could find so many willing participants in this thing that you guys are pitching.

Yeah. So you got nothing. It's a no-go on the relatives you're providing. So the answer is straight up no. You will not. Just that I go to a nursing home. I guess I'm singing. You could sing.

That's how you get them warmed up. Older people, they have a hard time getting could sing that's how you get them warmed up older people they have a hard time getting damp so you have to get them you have to sing like oh especially like old black old black ladies you gotta sing like old negro spirituals something you know i'm saying civil rightsy that gets them all because they used to love mlk they used to love like all those cats who was like standing for some shit those cats And that really gets them kind of going. You don't have like a muscly uncle or anything like that? Yeah, a strong uncle.

A strong uncle. Normal uncles are lazy for the most part. They probably used to be strong back in the day, coming from the island. You know what I'm saying? A lot of chopping shit. You know what i'm saying a lot of chopping shit you know what i'm saying a lot of strength but now in their old age arthritis that plagues the black community you know what i mean it's a lot of you know rickley old dudes okay so busted you're saying that's sounding busted uncles are busted um the comments are gonna be about how busted they are that's just like not gonna help us because then we don't we

don't want to show them you know we don't want to go hey uncle strong like here like come look at all you know like showing my uncle strong all the comments that on his video of yeah but that i think and then you're reading the comics reading the comments it's gone like busted fugly wouldn't hit like and and then he's just like he's sad this uncle the kind of thing yeah this uncle hits the same yeah you imagine that'd be just about it for me yeah that's a wrap if this uncle hits the same that's a wrap but do yourselves a favor i really mean this guys this is homework for you please go to a nursing home i'm gonna have to do myself a favor no one else is doing it so

no no this whole show is i mean it's up to me i guess when it comes to doing me favors this is 540 plus favors that we've done for ourselves diminishing returns on all the favors we've been doing be a better you in 2024 with babble the science-backed language learning app that actually works don't pay hundreds of dollars for private tutors or waste hours on apps that don't really help you speak the language and the question that i always get people stop me and they say like hey i like i i trust you i know like you when you endorse a product it's something that you really use and care about but there's one language i'm trying to learn and that's body language

so can babble teach me body language? Yes. Babbel now has visual in-person lessons. Part of their quick 10-minute lessons that they do for other languages, handcrafted by over 200 language experts to help you start speaking a new language in as little as three weeks. Babbel is designed by real people for real conversations, and that includes body-based conversations what does it mean when you drop someone off after a nice date and they turn around at the door and they take their little index finger and they kind of like draw it towards them they're pulling it

what does that mean does their finger hurt i wonder if they spotted a spider web or something they're trying to pull down the spider down yeah but i've seen this too after a lot of dates and i need i need and have needed something like babble to figure out what the heck is this person doing with their finger because it looks like a it looks like an emergency i know i was supposed to do something or how about those people that stand in the street they're kind of like they've got like almost like police clothes on it may be almost yeah and they're standing in the middle and as i'm driving and i'm cruising they're holding their hand up for like a high five almost and they're really aggressively like pushing for like a high five almost. And they're really

aggressively like pushing it out. And I'm like, am I supposed to pull over and get out of the car? Yes. Or just do it out the window as I'm going. That's what I've been doing. That seems dangerous.

No. Okay. No. So then all the more reason to sort of strike while the iron's hot in terms of hiring us to do this reaction video, you know? A hundred percent. But I'm saying you got to get on now. Our numbers are not through the roof necessarily.

We are almost able to like sit on an ottoman you know what i mean oh right now where our numbers are at like we're just sort of like leaning against the ottoman and like we try to hop onto it but like it's not our numbers are at a level where we're really scared if an overhead light bulb goes out because we are not going to be able to change it. We are going to have to sit in the dark. Yeah. So, like... We need someone to get us food. The food's too high. Yeah, the food is up too high. Anything in a cabinet is a no-go.

Is that why there was no parking space for me? There was no parking space for me. Also, you said earlier, before we were rolling, that the coffee was dog shit here as well. I did not say that! You said that you went across the street to get your coffee and there's i said i didn't know whether the coffee was good or not because it's a new machine it is brand new i there was no parking spot for me either if it makes you feel better

no there wasn't no there's no parking spot for anyone kevin texted me did he let you know you didn't let lamorne know i did yeah yeah Yeah, he texted me a while ahead of time. But I didn't walk here. And he said, yeah, I walked here from my faraway parking spot. And as soon as I walk in, I see why. The fucking Doughboys. And so how is the coffee? Honestly, I don't know if the coffee is good or not because my cup was washed with so much soap.

This cup is washed. The cup, yeah. And it's straight washed. And it smells like, you know, palm olive. And you're drinking coffee out of that? I thought it was water that you were having that reaction to. No. Yeah, because I saw you take a sip at one point,

and I thought, this man is fighting for his life. He's going through something in terms of the odor of this cup. Smell the cup. But the coffee today is maybe okay because... Smell the cup challenge. Smell the cup challenge. Smell the cup challenge. They, when the doughboys are in here...

Smell the outside of the cup. Oh, they washed this thing with an old sponge. An old sponge. This was not a brand new sponge fresh out of the cup oh they washed this thing huh with a with a old sponge an old sponge this was not a brand new sponge fresh out of the package that was a mildewy sponge oh wow yeah oh geez what's this palm olive or something this is this is some kind of this is not seventh generation this is like which is the good stuff this is a soap that uh that's from when i was young a joy type soap. They get 7th generation right out of the tree. They just nail a bucket to a blue tree.

Yeah, so that's... You were right. I'm not going to lie. It's bad. It's dog shit. I smelled the cup challenge. But not because the coffee might be good. We can't even judge the coffee.

And here's... I actually think maybe it is good today. We're here at the same time as the Doughboys. And when the Doughboys are in here, you ever see The Sting? No. The movie The Sting? No.

Lamorne. Okay, we're watching The Sting. And then we'll... You especially, you especially need to watch The Sting. It is so Lamorne. Is that part of it? Is that part of it? Is that part of it?

It's a little bit. It's a little bit. It's the most of it. Yeah. What is The Sting? I don't want to watch it now. This film sounds like I don't want to watch it. We're watching it.

We're watching it. So never mind. I don't want to spoil. No, now I can't bring it up. You just have to see it. You just have to see it. So come back after you watch The Sting. We watch The Sting, and then we have an appointment.
