This is a headgum podcast.
There's just one little problem
I think that she wants me dead
I keep finding all these papers
They will plan an attack
This girl's been nothing but coy to me
Is she gonna stab me in the back?
Do you have any suggestions?
Should I hit it and quit?
No matter what you say
I'm probably gonna go for it
If I were you
If I were you
I'd tell you what I would do
If only I were
If only I were you
Who's 18
And would love a shout out to his band
They're on YouTube
They're on SoundCloud
Like a den in the sea
Not like a sedan
Like Ursula's living
My uncle Dan goes swimming
That's a sedan
He only goes swimming and drives a coupe
A two door sport
Billy and Adam in the house
They're back and better than ever
When was the last time you guys were on the show?
When was that, Bill?
We just started the podcast
So maybe a little less than a year ago
The episode was called Olive Oil
Yeah, we talked about masturbating with Olive Oil
Billy, this is your third time on our show
Adam's second
The first time you were on the show
We went to McDonald's and we got a flay of fish
And my stomach just started to feel normal today
That was a great day
I remember having a great day with you guys
It's funny because now we're recording
Now you just brought donuts
So it's like some sort of theme in our lives
Where we eat foods that are bad for us
There was that half piece of cheese on a donut
That was the fish donut
That was just the fish donut
They just squished white fish
That was like a Boston cream donut
Except with fucking fish
I got you the Boston cream and I got a mirror the white fish
A white fish donut
It seems anti-semitic that you got me that
Of course
Why did you give me the white fish?
If we say white fish donut one more time
It's going to be appetizing for me
We've already started to want it
That's Adam's fantasy basketball team
White fish donut
I was a big gefilte fish addict
Oh really?
Huge gefilte fish addict
You needed it
I needed it
He legitimately needed it
Everyone in my life was repulsed and disgusted
By my pension for gefilte fish
And then even more so by your withdrawal
Exactly, or withdrawal symptoms
Yeah, they detoxed you for a month
You were throwing up piles
Take me to the Hannaforts
Yeah, it was really bad
I actually have the caters
The two lovely Israeli caters make me the bar mitzvah boy
My own individual plate of just gefilte fish
But I ate alone in silence
Yeah, this is the fish for the public
And this is Sir Adam's fish
This is the new man's fish
Nobody gets my fish, papa
You're like Veruca kosher salt
Just like a very well-to-do
Jewish gentleman boy
Exactly
Adam told me one thing about gefilte fish
Which is that it's the only fish in the supermarket
That doesn't need to be refrigerated
Red flag
Oh, it's in the cereal aisle
But that's fish
But that's fish though
It's next to the peanut butter
From the sea to aisle 7
Seriously, exactly
You can just eat it right out of the bag
That they bag it in its grossest order
Astronauts bring it to outer space
It's so gross
Fruit loops, gefilte fish
And then over there in the refrigerated section
Is the real fish
Gefilte fish does have a cereal mascot
It does, doesn't it?
Gilly the nervous fish
Oh, jeans
He swims in jeans
Only fish that wears jeans in the lake
Solid app
Solid app so far
We are out of time, but thank you guys so much for coming
Once again, check out the no-joke podcast
Super fun
That's where we can get them
This is our podcast
The only advice podcast on the internet hosted by Jake and I
Sometimes we're by ourselves
Sometimes we're our friends
Hello, headgum, podcasters
Billy and Adam
You guys have your own show on our network
We do, it's called no-joke
Which is the day between Thursday and Saturday
Oh, that's a good sandwich
To Jake and I's show
It's like we got the Monday show
We're the bread, I would say
And the rest of the podcast would be
I would say the white fish
In the donut
So unlike your podcast
Here, we're basically trying to advise people
Out of their sticky situations
People will email us, they're confused, they're scared
They want to know what 31 to 35 year old
White people think
About their situation
Who doesn't? Who doesn't? Who does not?
Who does not want that? Who's 35 in this room?
Me. You're 35?
Good man. Thank you.
Look at Corkin's twin
Yeah, true
I can't wait to be 35
Yeah, a second
35 looks good on you, Bill
You could be president, that's the year
You should be president
You know what, maybe I will be president
Are we okay with that by the way?
35 is the floor, right? You have to be at least 35?
Yeah. Wow
What if there's like a 27 year old genius
Who is like clearly the best president?
I'm fine with the floor, I actually think there should be a ceiling
I don't think you should be able to
I said this to you guys before, I don't think you should be able to
Vote after 65
I think 65, you can't be president anymore either
You're on the way out brother
You need to take a driver's test
Same thing, when you turn like 50, 60, 70
Every 10 years you have to pass a driving test again
You should not be grandfathered into
Assuming you're safe
When you're 80 taking your driving test
They actually just drive the car off a cliff
It maps the end of your life
He passed
Thump
The new Rams head coach
Los Angeles Rams head coach
30, that's silly man
He'd be the youngest one in this room
How could you do that?
There's definitely people on the team that are older than me
For sure
I would say most of the team is over 30
I don't know what football, I guess it's a young
He's a millennial, he rides his bike
I guess the front line is all over 30
Yes, exactly
The fast people are in meetings
As they should be
I'm trying to find the best question to start with
Here's a good one, this will set us on our way
Adam, why don't we get a fake guy's name?
How about
Tad William Smith
That's pretty good
William Smith
Is there a hyphen?
William Smith
His maiden name is William
He took his wife's name Smith
Tad William Smith
Very progressive
Here's the deal, I'm currently doing a year-long service program
In a new city and the program set me up
With two worst roommates I've ever had in my life
It's not that they have any annoying habits
Or that they don't clean or anything
It's not even that they're not good people
They're both also involved in a year of service
And genuinely seem like they want to make the world
A better place
The problem is that I just hate being around them
For whatever reason our personalities don't mesh
They constantly annoy the shit out of me
For just being who they are
Awesome
So I guess I just need some advice on how to survive
Seven more months of this shit
Have you ever had shit roommates?
Side note, I don't think this plays a big part
But just for context, I'm a man and they're both women
Oh jeez
Tough little addendum there
Every neighborhood has crazy neighbors
And if yours doesn't, you're the crazy neighbor
Yeah
And my dude, you're the weird one
They don't like you
You're the weird one, turn the mirror around my man
Perhaps
Have you guys ever had shit roommates is the first question
I personally have been fortunate enough
To always be able to essentially choose my roommates
Same
Oh no, in college I did have a shitty roommate
I should take that back
My freshman year roommate was a bit of an asshole
He was a weird guy from Philadelphia
He was just persnickety and didn't like me having friends
Over even though college is a time for friends
This is what he told them
It's kind of a big part of it
This is time for friends, no?
So he was sort of a prick
He was a prick, but other than that
My roommate, I've been kind of at a thousand with roommates
For the most part
This dude hasn't said one thing about his roommates
I don't have any advice on how to solve it
They sound like the most ideal
Their personalities don't clash
Or don't click
It just sounds like Tad is a misanthrope
You just don't like people, Tad
I don't think you might not like other human beings
Yeah, is that what that means?
Just try to relate to them on something
He might love them
The problem is he might love them
And he's pretending like he's not
Has anybody ever done a 180 like that in your life
Where you hated him and then you're like
You just view him in a different lens
And now I think I like this person
I've never taken someone out of the hate pile
Into the love
It seems like it only goes the other way
I like this person, and now I no longer like him
And now I no longer like that person
You go back
People go from one pile to the other daily
Yeah
So fickle, Jake
I hated you at the top
That's exactly the passion
Sometimes you shine
The light on the world with someone you love
And then sometimes you spin the spotlight at you
Want to burn them to death
Kev, can you name someone
That you used to hate that you're now really close with?
Marty
Oh, interesting
What about you guys?
Marty as well
First impression, first time I met Marty
I was like this dude's just going to be up my ass
This dude's trouble
Why did Jake and Amir bring him on to Head Gum
They were doing fine with that dangerous boy
My girlfriend Maggie often gets upset at me
Because I do try to employ that tactic
Of just like pretend you like them
Just pretend
And then ultimately like your habit will form
If you lied to yourself enough
Just say, just pretend that you like them
Just make believe until it's real
This is you telling her to do that
Or is this about you?
I do that myself and she's like I think you're a false man
I think that means you're a false man
That's genuinely the way you feel
If I don't like something like
Why exist in that sort of like
You sound perturbed at, you sound annoyed
Here's a way out of it, just trick
Dumb yourself down enough that you can trick yourself
To like it a little
That really is true
If you have one conversation with them
Where you like, just like laugh and smile
And pretend you care about what they like
Build on that
Then you really do, you walk away
Even if you don't remember the substance
Of the conversation, you walk away and you're like
I was smiling
I think I was happy then
My body's in joy mode
Because like two years later, you're definitely not going to remember
Any substance of the conversation you had with anyone
All you're going to remember is the vague sensation
Of joy that you had, whether it was true or fabricated
Or vague sensation of hate
That's all
And you didn't like that person
It's as simple as
Smile when you're talking to them
Seriously, you will dilute yourself
Into thinking you are having fun
It's a reverse brain thing
When I'm happy, I smile
So if I'm smile, will that then
Force happy?
Yes, really
If you just smile
You trick yourself into being happy
We're just dumb mammals
We can trick ourselves, we just have silly little brains
We can do it, we can do it ourselves
I'm smiling right now and I'm kind of happy
Yeah, and I hate myself
Okay, that's a good technique
Just fake the shit out of it until it becomes real
Or they move out
My girlfriend Marina does voiceover work
And usually if the copy asks
For optimism or like a
Hopeful voice
The trick is to smile while you're reading
All of the copy because
It just becomes, your voice literally changes
Everything in your body changes
But if you walk in on somebody doing that voiceover
With a crazy clown smile and talking about
Like Downey's air fresheners
It's crazy
But smile
So smile is the
Advice here
How about smile
Exactly
That's not bad, seven months of smiles
Just pretend
Sounds like seven months of smiles will drive a man crazy too
Yeah, you don't want to smile too much
Seven months of smiles
Because it could be that happiness is finite
The serotonin in your brain will eventually run out
And you wasted it being fake nice
But GNC sells serotonin
So
You can literally
Are you selling us MDMA right now?
Exactly, people who take ecstasy a lot
They flood their brains with serotonin
And the next day they are very depressed
Because they used up all of their serotonin
But the smart ecstasy users
Will go to GNC
And literally buy the things that pump serotonin
Yeah, the HTTP5
Is that what it is?
You're thinking
It's something like that
HTTP5
That's like the serotonin thing
It works pretty slow
You really want to kill yourself in the morning
You should really take ecstasy
With this serotonin
Just take ecstasy
Always take ecstasy
That way you won't be able to not smile
You're going to love it anyway
Exactly
Here's a lady
From Australia
Billy, do you have a name for an Australian lady?
Patricia
Exactly
Patricia Williams Smith
No relation
We just used the same phone book
Not even vaguely
Straight to the point
I'll be 23 this year
And I'm still a virgin
Part of me wants to not care
And follow the feminist belief that virginity is just a concept
Made up by men to make them feel that
Their dick is important enough to change a girl's life
The other part of me
Just wants some dick
But I've realized that due to my anxiety disorder
Intimacy will always freak me out
To the point where I haven't even kissed someone
In over two years
Do you ever find intimacy nerve-wracking?
If so, any tips?
If not, is there any shame
In being well on my way to a real life
40-year-old version?
Tota, all the love
Patricia Williams Smith
Intimacy, does it ever make me nervous?
Not only, of course
I think you'd have to be a robot if intimacy didn't make you nervous
In some way
Well, I imagine if you're single
Intimacy starts to become a little more a la carte
Which then I would probably feel that way
But once you start falling into a relationship
Intimacy almost starts becoming more of a fun
Kind of a game that you can play
Where you know it's a very safe place
It's less embarrassing
I feel like once you can get to that point
The sex positive perspective
Sorry, Amir
A very supportive feminist
In me, says
A, live your whole life a virgin, no one cares
There's no stigma against that
No one cares if you have sex or not
It's all in your own head
Truly no one cares
That's a good point, well said, Adam
If you want sex, have all the sex
If you want dick as you so poetically put it
Go get that dick
Go get it
This is the first time I ever heard that
Men made up the concept of virginity
Their dick is so important
It can change a woman's life
I don't understand
When did you lose your virginity
Because I can make you do that with my dick
I can give you that fucking bar mitzvah
Right, I guess
That sort of makes sense
You can only lose your virginity
If somebody fucks you
And I got the secret key
It's my dick and I can take that virginity
Guys can be virgins too
And they can't be unvirgins unless a girl
Is the secret key
Being a vagina
Another boy's butt
Well, I mean
You still need the receiver
Yeah, now we're getting into
What is sex
Is it penis and vagina
Or is it butt and vagina
The butt goes into the vagina
The A to B
The A to A
What do you guys do outside
I stuck my butt in your vagina
The little pink eye
Everything, the whole cheek
I'm falling into a toilet bowl
That is such a
Wide, wide vagina
To allow the entire buttocks to enter
It's so rare
I grew up in Long Island
Where Goons, Goon Central
And it's a place where you would think
That dudes would be like my dick can change lives
I grew up with the dudes
Who would be cast to say that line
No one in my friend group would ever be caught dead
Saying that and no one in my friend group believed
That their dick could change lives
I mean like
To Jake's point, I've never
Heard that sentiment
Outside of maybe like a big dumb movie jock
I think my dick could mildly improve
A life for a short amount of time
If somebody consented
To it
And it was a nice time for everyone
And then their life would probably recede back to normal
Of course
Mild improvement and a vagina or
A butt could do that
You know that story
When a car flips over and lands on a baby
And someone comes in and lifts the car
Like if someone's dick lifted that car
That's a life changing dick
That dick literally changed a person's life
By the way you only ever hear about the ones that are able to lift the car
There's plenty of babies that are just crushed under the car
Swished baby syndrome
Didn't have enough adrenaline
Did you mommy?
I got the car and itch off the ground
Which is more than I could do normally
I can feel you make a failure that you didn't lift a car off of your child
I can absolutely see myself
In this scenario
For some reason it's on a bridge
In my mind
Always on a bridge and the car flips
And it's on the baby but the baby's still alive
And I would literally think to myself
Okay Billy this is literally what you've been training for your whole life
You're the guy that saves this baby
What if you flip the car off the baby
And it landed on a bunch of other babies
Four babies
Shit
That was my one rip max
I really can't
But you have to re-flip it
Roll it off the bridge
Is it the opposite where you're strong enough to lift a car
But the adrenaline actually saps you of energy
You become weaker with adrenaline
That would be a really disappointing
You gotta become cool and collected
You know one time I did
Rip open a car door after a car accident
In Los Angeles
It was actually by Catalyst
Where we all worked
Santa Monica-ish
Remember how there was always
Where those roads met
There was just a lot of left hand turns
Where people getting smashed into one another
And I worked out of Catalyst once
And a person had literally just been
Smashed and their door was
In and out and you could tell they were in a state of panic
And I was like five steps away
And I just grabbed it and just yanked
The door open and they climbed out
And it was amazing
It was a total hero moment
I mean the door was already open
But I did give it that extra couple of inches
That story really goes nowhere
But I'd like to think I could lift the car off the bridge
I think you probably could
Your friend Steve lifted a smart car
And just moved it with his hands
My friends are goons
It was a fiat
Yeah, yeah
He just moved a car with his hands
That was his bar prank
We'd go out into the parking lot
And find the smallest car
What are you talking about dragging it
Like by what?
By the two wheels that aren't in break
Or in park, there was a fiat
The famous one is the fiat
So lift up the bumper from the back
Yeah, cause the engine's in the front so it's a little heavier
And then he would just grab it and we would push the front
And we would move it to the other side of the parking lot
Just moving cars with your hands
This is Long Island
The other point man for Long Island is Gabriel
And he's 500 pounds
And he eats everything and moves everything
He's a fiat
He's a fiat 500
Have you seen Gabriel's tattoo?
I have, Long Island
Would you ever get that?
I would not
It's a map of the island?
It is definitely cool, I would not
Just because you're anti-tattoo?
I'm not anti-tattoo
I love Long Island
But it's also the type of place that you're there for two days
And you're like you gotta go, you gotta get out of here fast
So you don't want to constantly see it on your bye
You want to say bye to the bye?
Her question about the dick
Any tips about
If you find intimacy nerve-wracking
It seems to me that it's a trust thing
The more comfortable you get with someone
You shouldn't rush it, go on as many dates as possible
Until you feel completely comfortable allowing this person
To be intimate with you
Maybe that'll lead to less anxiety
And don't be afraid to tell that person
That you're anxious about intimacy
Because then they will
If they're a good person be a lot more sensitive
To your anxiety
And I imagine she might
She might attract someone who
Might have similar feelings as well
She doesn't seem like a one night stand type of person
I would say that you should try and find a friend
Who you might be able to turn that into more
That'd be nice
Best of luck Patricia
Best of luck Patricia

I would never listen to anybody who just told me I'm wrong blindly and like walked away from it
right so my my position with everybody who I loved before the election and I will still probably love after the election despite
Who they voted for because they're more complicated than just this one vote is
What can I how can I speak to them because they already respect me?
We have a friendship where we're a family members. They already respect me and what I believe that's already been established
How can I talk to them from just like my perspective on the matter and not project on to them?
Why they're wrong, but rather like
Maybe you don't know about conversion therapy
Like let's just out like let's maybe you don't know about that like that's something that like
Really like gets me uncomfortable like when the like future vice-president and I'll say that to a few people few people
And they'll be like what conversion therapy like Mike Pence what right and so I can't assume that every
Trump voter or person who disagrees with me is a bad person or should be cut out of my life
That's right. But what I take on the personal responsibility now of trying to slow things down and create more dialogue and less debate
Because debate is how we became these two everyone just argued online to the point where it's like
I know who you're voting for you know, I'm voting for and we're both gonna yell in a vacuum until the elections, right?
Right, so I'm just trying to build little bridges that hopefully when in two years local elections start happening
And in four years bigger elections start happening those bridges have already been built just enough so that like if I do put out like a slightly
More political stance somewhere people already know where I'm coming. Yeah, I get Jake
I get you're like if you do that like it's a disqual it's like a D
Non-edibility fire. I totally get that I feel that way too to a certain degree
One thing my girlfriend Maggie has done in an effort to sort of like be a little more diplomatic and kind of the icebreaker
That she will use to sort of gently ease into the conversation is like what news?
How do you get your news like where do you get your information like what news sources?
Do you read like what newspapers or what where do you get your information because it is a I mean?
I feel like that is like so much at the core of what is so fucked about all this
Is it like we can't even really agree on fact right like empirical scientific fact?
Well, it's like limited knowledge where with the thing that I'm putting in and getting out
They're not even getting the input from that they're getting inputs from somewhere else. That's right
so to me that would be
What I would be most curious about and I think would be a non to feather roughly way to sort of like ease into a conversation about values and about
Information and knowledge that is that you can sort of back off of the contempt that you have for people who you disagree with
Which I completely understand. Yeah, everybody should definitely listen to you, too. I
Cannot get over my resentment. I know somebody I just find it unforgivable here. Maybe I'll work towards it
But that's what makes me so upset
I think that it's like you have to address and I talked my sister at length about this where it's like
Until we are not like we the four of us and the people who are like and this girl who's
Dealing with this problem until we have like taken off the raw edge of it all like we're all still very
Emotionally raw right now and we're all very like coming out of a traumatic experience
And you have to ask yourself am I in a position to be part of this conversation with my best friend
Am I going to be in a healthy enough mind space that I'm not gonna actually
Screw up what I already believe because I'm so emotional
And so it's like if you can find limo a Miranda says that you need to like eat your vegetables
But also like have your dessert, too
And so there's like you kind of need to like find what you were made you happy before the election and like live in that a little
bit just that you can normalize yourself so that when you are ready to have bigger conversations that might go one of two ways
You can at least be sure that you are levelheaded in this
That's why I feel like if she's asking me what to do this specific bringing it back to this question
I wouldn't necessarily have their
Conversation before the trip I would let the trip exist in this ignorant blissful bubble have fun with your friend
And then later on find out all this stuff why they think that way and if you're more curious than angry like
Understanding the root of her thoughts or maybe it's as simple as like I just don't like Hillary because this that and the other
Yeah, she doesn't necessarily think that she's like purporting or supporting this yeah specifically racist sex as human right
But that's my just like avoid it all together on the vacation and then later be like oh, by the way, I might hate you
That's right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it comes it comes down to the question being should they do it the beginning of the trip to get out
of the way or
Do it at the end of the trip. Yeah, I think I think beginning of the trip trumps end of the trip trumps
Second that distant second cousins, I'm telling you he's getting his claws in you Jake
Oh
Dude the conversion therapy work
I could totally see another way
I meant I see the value in both strategies
Oh, what would you do if you if it were you if I were if it were me
Oh, I like to think I would have the courage and the strength to be like
I'm pretty upset with you and I want to have a great time
But I want you to know I'm upset because I'm an honest adult, but I probably would never
But then it's like the swing thing every single good every single good thing you do on this trip you add a lot
You're like, oh shit. Yeah. Yeah, I still have to have a really hard
Exactly trip so you get it out of the way first and then and New York's such a great distraction
You guys will forget they had the argument all the pizza. Hopefully or I mean, I was gonna say pizza like Lombardi's is a good
pizza is a good
I
If at any point an awkward moment arise where maybe you started to dip your toe into politics
You can just look at each other and just say pizza pizza pizza
Lady and the tramp each other so close
They just the that's the unity right there
Billy I would have the conversation in advance, but I would know what I was going to say on the phone
I wouldn't pick like dial her without knowing exactly what I wanted to say
I would just have like a plan in mind so that I didn't go off the rails and then I was speaking from an emotional place
Yeah, I want to speak from like here's how I feel you were my best friend before this
You'll still be my best friend after this but that being said here's how I feel
I don't pass judgment on you because I already have it. Do you have any really close friends that voted for DJ T?
Yeah, my best friend. Oh, the same guy who was ripping phone books and
You know, I spoke to him immediately after and I was like dude
This is why I voted for and and I was like, you know
And he has he like basically grew up in the inner city with like nothing but minorities like the inner city portion of my town
like he was literally raised by no parents like Latino neighbors and all these different people and
He works in a union and he doesn't read the news and he just gets this like big mass produced
this is what we do in this town and
He just doesn't care enough and that's not I like it bit us in the ass
But he doesn't care enough to really question authority because like he has his life in place and so as his best friend
I'm the one outlet. I'm literally the one person right who can potentially put a like a crack in this stone
And just be like, hey, listen, you trust me. I know that so this is why I voted for this person
Just consider these things and like let me be a person of political advice
Maybe next time around if you have questions like maybe it could be me and I made inroads on a lot of Long Island
Hardheads a lot a lot and so it was like that actually brought me a lot of like calm after the storm which was like, okay
This is my personal responsibility. Yeah, it's localized and it's small
But I'm a well enough speaker and well respected enough in this community that I've always kind of gone against the grain of what these people do
They'll continue to listen to me in some capacity. I should run for office out there, man. It's really
You're three you can be president diplomatic without being condescending is a hard line to walk
I don't know how to do it. Yeah, I have the same impulse as you Jake to shame, which is only to shame
Like I want to say to every Trump voter. How dare you right, right?
So that's my impulse completely, but I also acknowledge the truth that Billy is espousing, which is
It's sort of that can tight that can
Reinforce the divide. I want I want Billy on the front line. I do not want to be out there in the trenches converting people
I want to be huddled up with my people saying fuck those guys. We need you on our team
We need Ryder dies on our team make no mistake. Jake. We need an army. Yes
Responsibility pardon. What do you think about that nickname?
responsibility
Kind of came out of left field. It wasn't really prepared for a nickname test
or responsibility
Neutral I guess my answer be neutral neutral is a great starting point. Oh, that's just responsibility people wouldn't
That's kind of cool, and then we can shorten it eventually to Billy
Short for responsibility our Billy T
Billy T. Williams

Yes, Adam who's never been in a gym. I don't think you've ever left
He's doing Billy taught me about super sets. Do you know about that? Yeah, yeah, my brother taught me about him
Basically doing instead of rest you do another set. Yeah, there is no rest
So in between sets, which is when you're supposed to be resting don't do that. It's yeah, it's just doing a harder work
It's like when you're done with a meal just continue eating until your next meal constantly be nibbling on a saltine
I don't think I mean I had that shake today. That's 50 right there 50 grams of protein
I have Amir and Ben I'm training them five days a week at the gym good and they have committed to the system
I'm I'm I'm two weeks straight. They are off days five days a week in the gym
And they're consuming a hundred grams of protein per my request every day very good
Billy told me that he eats a box of pasta today. Yeah, that was pretty funny. I know that I know that's usually with a couple of chicken breasts
That's true. Yeah
This is all true a college freshman diet just forever. I mean Michael Phelps did it so I'm gonna try yeah
