This is a headgum podcast.
Usually when you auto-tune something, it sounds better, right?
Yeah, he auto-tuned it backwards.
That was Don Kianian.
Setting a very strange tone.
Don Kianian.
We have to hunt him.
He told me how to pronounce it because his last name looks like Kianian.
But it's not.
It's Kianian.
Don Kianian.
Don Kianian.
That's a cool name.
Yeah.
Weird song.
Cool name.
It was called Four Dudes Kissing, so I thought it was appropriate because right now we're
four dudes talking to each other.
Over life.
Yeah.
Oh yeah, we're live.
This is it.
Brian and Nick.
Brian?
Brytanic.
That's right.
Two internet duos.
That's right.
Oh my god.
Yes.
From the 2008 specific era.
We should swing.
We should swing.
We should swing, man.
Is that crazy?
Oh yeah.
Who would switch?
I don't know.
You used to have glasses and now you don't, right?
I don't really wear my glasses anymore.
No.
Right, so now you're the only loser.
What are we swinging?
We're a thruple.
I'm a solo career guy.
You're like a slightly taller, less Jewish versions of me and Jake.
That's what people say when they meet us.
Yeah, that's true.
They're like, you're like more Jewish Brytanic.
Yeah.
We met back in the day in New York comedy writers, actors.
Yeah, yeah.
How would you define yourselves?
If people, for whatever reason, don't know, listen to our show for the first time.
Director, actor, writer.
I just say writer.
That's good.
Yeah, I just say plumber now.
That's great.
You're just going to totally...
Yeah, I zig where other people zag.
You guys are now in New York working for SNL.
We are.
So we only get you for the summers in LA.
The summers in our weird off weeks we sometimes have.
Oh, you guys fly back?
Sometimes.
Where's home base?
Yeah.
New York or no where.
It's kind of both right now.
I feel like when I was 21 I was like, I want to be a fucking jet setter.
I want to fly to both coasts and live in both places and now I'm like so exhausted.
No shit, talk me out of it because that's what I wanted.
Yeah, right.
Do we say fuck on this podcast?
Absolutely not.
We'll bleep it out.
We'll turn it into Kant every time.
He goes there.
Sorry.
We should bleep mine though, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Do you guys consider yourself LA in New York or is it literally 50-50?
I guess because we moved out here to LA like three and a half years ago after living in
New York for a decade and we were like, we live in LA now.
Yeah.
We've got houses, we've got everything.
We were here for like two and a half years.
And you know, like the move from New York to LA is normally pretty permanent unless
you know, SNL comes calling which is a very rare shot.
Right.
And then of course that happens so we go back to New York and then so now it's like,
well, we're like, well, we'll see if we're going to work there for a second year and
now we are.
So it's like, I don't know.
Yeah.
Now you're back to being in New York, right?
I think so.
It's different.
You can never leave you.
It's in your blood.
It's in your blood.
If you're retired, do you have a preference?
I think.
Los Angeles, I think for sure.
I think it'd be really hard to like have a family in New York, right?
Like, I don't know.
Unless you're loaded.
You have to be a billionaire.
Yeah, you have to be really, really rich.
Like, what was that guy?
Oh, Trump had like a whole...
Trump's name?
Yeah.
Well, yeah, Trump had like...
Jesus.
He was in Manhattan for a bit, right?
Of course.
Yeah, he was probably like a...
He had like a three-bedroom on the upper east.
It's about like the one-bedroom.
You think he had a three-bedroom?
It's a fact about Donald Trump.
Yeah, yeah.
And what do you mean for a bit?
Yeah.
Born and raised in New York.
I thought he was like a Brooklynite.
But yeah, he was in Williamsburg for a bit.
No, he wasn't.
He wasn't a family.
I don't know, man.
Didn't he had a family in Manhattan?
There's a focus of everything.
Did he have a family in Manhattan?
What's his name?
The junior?
Junior?
Yeah, Fred.
Fred, Donald.
If you know the last parts of junior, then you should know the first parts of junior.
Something junior.
Donald, Trump, and something junior.
And then...
Do you know he is president now?
It seems like you have a very, very light grasp on...
Yeah, the more I said his name, like, I fucking know this.
Why is he in the news now?
It's like every day he's like doing something.
Every day he's hustling.
He's president.
It's a president.
But we're not here to talk about politics, guys.
We can't.
Yeah, legally.
We're not here to talk about politics.
We're here to talk about giving people advice.
Great.
This show is called If I Were You.
It's basically just us dispensing wisdom, people who write in.
Sometimes they need four people's advice.
So this is going to be...
We're going to give people basically double advice at this point.
Let's do it.
Great.
What a good deal for them.
All free.
The caveat is that we need some fake names to preserve these people's anonymities, because
I don't want to rat them out.
So do you have a fake guy's name?
Brian.
Grafethin.
I love it.
Grafethin.
He's friends with Don Keania, right?
For sure.
They're heist together.
Graf?
Fethin?
Grafethin?
How do we always say it?
I don't know why you're looking to me.
You know about his fake name?
Yeah.
How do you always say it?
I mean, I think that sounds right.
That sounds like a solid...

labyrinth in my mind to put that together.
Sister's 21, he's 9.
My dumb little sister, my pregnant wife and child.
It's funny that this father of one,
soon to be two, is acting like a petulant 16-year-old.
I was gonna say, my first thing is family therapy.
You gotta get right with your citizen.
Maybe your dad too, I'm not sure.
There's a lot going on here.
I totally take the dude side.
You guys don't?
This girl's being a bitch.
His vision is, he's visiting his dad.
I got distracted by the twat.
Nick got distracted by his twat.
Oh, what else is there?
His language could be, it's a little harsh.
It's a little harsh.
And the fact that he's mad and writing in a podcast
is very odd for an adult.
So they're on vacation?
You should be on vacation.
I'm visiting the father.
Alright, do we know where it is?
Nova Scotia.
I was gonna guess Nova Scotia.
Yeah, I was thinking Nova Scotia.
Yeah, Scotia, right.
Uh, sister, basically.
Take the big guest house.
I mean, that's insane to me.
It seems like the whole house.
It seems like the dad should be like, you shouldn't stay there.
Do you guys have younger siblings, older siblings?
Yeah, I've got a younger brother who's six years younger.
But isn't he also bigger and stronger than you, right?
No.
I saw a YouTube video of him playing Oldsman Frisbee
in a dive game.
He has a top 10 thing.
He's more athletic, but he's not bigger than me.
He's just stronger and faster.
I will give you a shorter...
Maybe faster.
Maybe faster.
What are you talking about?
He trains every day.
I've never seen you run in my life.
I run every day.
You jog.
He's Prince.
I'm taller than him.
My legs are longer.
I'm a weird spider creature.
And I fight much quicker than you might expect.
Is he...
He's essentially at the top of his field.
But his field is
Ultimate Frisbee.
So, if I wanted to be at the top of Ultimate Frisbee,
I imagine I could as well.
I'm at the top of comedy.
Yes.
I'm at the third tier of comedy.
You're talking like a real older brother.
But at least people have heard of it.
Yes, he is.
Are you close with this guy?
Are you actually dislike him?
Yeah, no, we're close.
I've been on vacations with my family
and
him, obviously.
And then my girlfriend at the time.
And in that situation...
Now, fiance.
Oh, sorry.
Oh, cut that out.
And on those situations,
my girlfriend and I would get the master bedroom
because my parents are divorced
but we still all vacation together.
That's kind of cool.
Modern family.
And it's just fully understood
that, you know,
I'll have the nicest room.
Because you still have love in your life.
You get the master bedroom.
I don't anymore.
I've got to get a new girlfriend
if I want that sweet sweet.
So the master bedroom is just for any loved one.
Do you have siblings?
I do. I have an older sister.
But I have a very interesting kind of family dynamic
because my sister has cerebral palsy.
So she lives with my parents.
So I'm a young...
Where is this? It's in Atlanta, where we both grew up.
So I am the younger sibling,
but in many ways it's kind of like I'm an older sibling.
I see.
And in many ways it's like I'm an only sibling.
There's a lot of ways in which the dynamic
of how we interact is.
So nothing like this has ever happened.
So you can't really imagine her being a twat or something.
You have younger sisters.
But I have triplet younger sisters.
Three of them.
So when it comes to bedroom stuff,
the triplets usually get the best room
because they need to all share it.
They need to all be in bed together.
They need to?
Well...
We don't often go on vacations
in places with eight bedrooms or something.
You know, triplets.
They all have to sleep in the same bed.
The triplets slept in the same bed until they were 16.
And they sleep in a triangle, like some sort of...
Wait, shrewly triplets?
Yeah.
In the same bed, that feels like a fairy tale.
It was.
We lived in a moss cupboard.
It's head to toe, and the head is reversed for the middle one.
You know what I'm talking about?
That's how I see it.
They were just in a king-size bed.
And that's still how they sleep when we go on vacation.
Some of them have boyfriends now,
so if the boyfriends are there, they're in the bed too.
They sleep in the bed too.
My whole family goes on vacation.
One giant bed, Willy Wonka style.
Identical triplets.
Oh, fraternal triplets.
I don't know if I've ever seen that before.
It's weird. They all look like sisters,
and they all look the same age,
but they don't look like triplets.
Yeah, I would say they don't even look the same age.
Rachel and Liza seem like they're four years apart.
Amir talks about this all the time.
Think of their ages.
What would you say if they aren't triplets,
and this is a long con they've been playing on you?
They are younger than me, so they'd have to start.
They'd have to figure that out.
They started when they were zero when I was three,
lying to me.
Yeah, you could probably lie to a four-year-old forever,
and he would never know.
At what age do you think you're smart enough to figure it out?
I think I still probably believe some lies
that were told to me when I was four.
That your parents just sort of forgot.
Oh, definitely.
That was the name of my dad's law firm until I was 17.
Yeah, man, that classic.
There were too many names,
so I guess they gave me a nick one.
They told you it was Dewey, Dewey, and Fart,
and you thought that until late, late high school.
Dewey screwed them in hell.
Nice.
What are we telling this guy?
Talk to your daddy, relax.
It's just a younger sister.
Your sister should be faithful to let your family stay there.
You were moved here by force from the guest house.
I think so, too.
You're not big brother, but dad-style.
There's a pregnant woman involved.
The pregnant woman goes in and says,
pregnant, get out.
You gotta fight for your family.
I kind of have a feeling this will work out when they show up.
I mean, I guess I don't know his sister.
Maybe she's really a twat.
I will say this guy sounds like
he's gonna come in real hot to this big case.
Try to kill him with kindness.
I think you should...
When I'm in a situation like this,
I lay everything out.
You need to get out of this house right now.
I would say,
you see that my wife is pregnant.
You see I'm holding a toddler.
You see that this room is very, very small.
Thoughts?
How do you think this should work?
You lay everything out and you're like,
let's discuss the best scenario
for my family
and you solo.
Do you get the house and I get the guest room?
She starts smoking a cigarette
and she's like, I don't give a shit what you think.
I think if that happens,
then you just plop the three-year-old down
and you're like, you're gonna stay with Aunt
Witch here.
Did you think about Aunt Witch?
Did I think about it?
Only as I said it.
It was pretty perfect.
I thought I thought of it a long time ago.
I could eat at Aunt Witch
for lunch today.
So it's two pieces of bread,
of course, because it is an Aunt Witch.
And then the insides, of course, being...
Aunt? Yes.
Or ants.
That's right, pronounced aunt for no reason.
Yeah, pronounced aunt because of your speech impediment.
All right,
we got another question from a lady.
Real quick, first shout out to Drew.
Of course, shout out to Drew.
Big ups to Drew.
Do you have a lady's name, Nick, that we can call this lady?
Yes, Lisa
Sandwich.
All right, Lisa Sandwich.
A regular sandwich, not not one.
A girl of Sandwich, no doubt.
Lisa Sandwich writes,
I'm a 30...
It's not a woman at all.
It's a gay male.
Wow, that's offensive.
I didn't think that until I read it.
Why did you think it was a woman?
Because it comes...
I'm homophobic for one.
And then two, the name
that says from this person's name,
and it's a woman's name.
I don't know if he's writing from his female friends account.
Like, Ashley is also a...
Yeah, but it's not that.
It basically says Laura.
But then it says, thanks, guys, love.
And then a guy's name.
You have a gay 30-year-old male name?
No, anything he says is going to be it.
It's Colin...
Sandwich.
Pizza.
Colin Pizza writes, I'm a 30-year-old gay male,
and I'm currently renovating a house.
I need a lot of subcontractors,
plumbers, electricians,
who I talk to on a regular basis.
One electrician in particular
spent a lot more time with me discussing the project,
which I found to be very helpful.
I also happened to find this guy very attractive.
He followed me up
by sending me a video message over text,
asking how a project was going,
and apologized for his appearance
as he just walked off a job site.
Obviously, I had social media stocked,
and I saw that he's in a relationship with a woman.
But could it be possible
that he was flirting by sending me a video message?
It wouldn't be the first time
a straight boy in a relationship
who ended up sleeping with me.
Is a video message a way of flirting,
or am I completely overthinking this?
Thanks, guys. Love, Colin.
Um, the fact that he
sent a video message that,
sorry for my appearance, is
next level insane.
Because it's like, you had the option
to text or phone call.
You have the control here.
No one's...
No one sends a video message.
Or take...
You can take five minutes
before you go make your video message
and make yourself presentable.
Totally. You can take a shower if you need to.
Well, he was apologizing for how he looked
at the job site, not during the message.
Oh, really? I think so.
But why did he have to send it?
No, he's talking about first appearance in the...
Oh, yeah, you're right.
He was apologizing for his appearance
in the video message, which was about something else.
Uh, do you guys ever send video messages?
Uh, yeah, I do.
Uh...
Like a pre-recorded, like,
hey, what's... I think I... I guess I have done it.
I've never done it in a professional setting.
Yeah, but it's always very casual.
Is it flirtatious though?
I've definitely done it flirtatiously, yeah.
I've never sent a video
to some... like, on Snapchat.
This guy has never done it in a text message.
And he asked him, what's...
like, how's the project going? How's some other project going?
That's... that's crazy.
Like, sending any text is flirtatious.
I don't have a lot... I don't really know
what the signs are when guys
in relationships with females
start hitting on males. But this sounds like it could be.
Yeah. This... I don't...
It's definitely in play.
Yeah, I would say be direct
and immediately ask, are you trying to fuck me?
Yeah.
I don't know if I'd go very...
Video message? What?
Video message of that?
Video messages that exist for a short period of time
and then just... That's cool.
And then follow it up with a bitmoji.
And then write the word congrats
so it fills the screen with confetti.
Are you guys aware of iPhone stickers?
How you can just put stickers in text messages now?
It's kind of a weird feature.
No, I mean, stickers...
In the chat, you can basically just like
plop down a little gif of a kitty
like over previous text.
Oh, like...
Over previous text.
It's not like a native iPhone thing.
I think it is a native iPhone thing.
No, I think you have to give something...
You have to download a third-party thing
and then give it permission to access your keyboard.
Yeah, but the fact that it can go over the text bubble
means like the iPhone has programmed
that it allows it to do that, I think.
Have you seen the invisible ink thing?
Yeah, that's cool.
And then you have to like wipe it.
What's the point of that, though?
For a long time.
So I was just like, I guess that text didn't work.
What's going on?
Yeah, and then like you were saying, you can also send the audio
which disappears in two minutes.
What's the point of that, though, to get one of those fuzzy texts
then to just know one second later what it says?
I guess, in theory, if you're a spy
or having an affair, it actually might be useful
for the person.
You can get away from a person and then...
Yeah, it is less incriminating.
But I've never had it sent in that capacity.
It's always just playful, it's nice.
What percent certainty are you?
Should he be that the video message meant?
I think what you should do is,
if he's interested, is you can
now respond with the video message.
It's kind of flirtatious because that precedent has been said.
Yeah.
And then just see if it escalates.
If he sends one back that's even more flirtatious.
It gets to the point where the guy does something that's like clear.
Clearly flirtatious.
He's still on the fence.
And then ask him mixed advice.
You don't have a limited supply of flirtatious.
Well, you should do that as you're making out.
And the fact that he's a plumber
makes me think that he's obviously gay, right?
God, so many questions.
Unless it's a mario.
Oh, I assume Mario is gay as well.
He's fucking the princess.
What about the princess?
The princess is a fucking beard.
He lives with Luigi.
You idiot.
Luigi's his brother.
Do you know that last...
He's like, oh whatever.
Can you know Mario's last name?
It's Mario, right?
I thought that was a fucking coincidence.
No, that's true.
That's why.
Link's last name is Link.
Yeah, from Zelda.
What?
They only have a short amount of ideas.
It doesn't matter.
Just make it all Mario.
Is that canon?
Mario will say that his name is Mario Mario.
I believe so.
Someone asked him in an interview years after the fact
and he's like, yeah, it's Mario.
That's how little Japanese people know about Italian people.
Mario, Mario.
I don't know.
I think it would suck to be Luigi.
I know, I have my brother's last name.
I didn't realize there were brothers.
Did you think there were brothers?
Super Mario brothers, what do you think?
You mean they're talking about them being brothers to other people?
I never thought about it, but I'm not...
We're the bright candy brothers.
I'm not rocked like you are right now.
This is insane.
I have to take a very long break.
I have a friend named Dean Yazbek
and he had an uncle named Yazbek Yazbek
that blew my mind.
Why?
The parents were like, I mean,
we hit gold with Yazbek.
Let's just double up.
Yeah, that's crazy.
We're never going to think of a better name than Yazbek.
A slightly younger
but taller fraternal twin brother.
Did you know there were twins?
No.
Slightly younger, I mean...
Yeah, that's what it says. How much younger?
Unnecessary detail.
They do look alike
and they are the same exact age
but Luigi was born second.
That makes me so excited.
Is it Mario's older?
Luigi was born second. That's so detailed.
That's so detailed, but then
they're named Mario Mario.
They didn't get that specific with that.
Yeah, they spent like a day
figuring out their age.
I don't know, Mario.
Luigi first appeared in 1983.
Were you guys born in 1983?
86.
Did we give this guy advice?
Yeah, I feel good.
Permission to engage.
Sir, go for it.
Alright, let's take a break.
We'll thank some sponsors.
You guys don't go anywhere.
We'll be back with more questions and answers after this.

about Squarespace because it's the best way
for dummies like me

know how to code or design

I didn't even look this up but there's no
way you can't buy

a good dude.com.
I bet that's available and you can have it
today and you can buy it through Squarespace
and build an awesome website dedicated to me

thank you Squarespace
and
we're back. When do you guys go back to New York?
September
4th? Yeah. Are you trying to like cram
in LA while you're here or are you just like don't do it?
Oh my god. I love being here right now.
You're a tourist again. Yeah.
You just go on hikes.
Eating Mexican food. Game nights.
Game nights. You can't do that in New York?
It's harder. People don't do that in New York.
They don't. They drink alcohol
in New York.
LA feels like you go to people's houses in New York
it's like you just you're going to your
you go to people's houses and you go home by like 1130
and then in New York
it's like you go to a bar
for like one drink and then leave it
at 4 a.m.
You do see the sun a lot right because of SNL
like you see late nights. That's something
that's like
the after after parties go till
like 8-9 a.m.
What I've noticed is you never leave
an after after party being
like okay
I think I'm going to work my way out. I'm going to go say my goodbyes
I'll be gone in like 20 minutes
it's like you're like in the middle of a beer
you're having a great time and then all of a sudden you're like
I have to fucking leave
and then you go out into bright sunlight
yeah often it's like in a dungeony kind of place
and then you don't realize it's morning
and you walk outside thinking it's going to be the middle of the night
and it's like full on Sunday morning
and it's not even like early morning like sun coming up
there's a single person walking their dog
it's like commuter time
that's such a bizarre way to live
you're just like
I'm late for work
it's like when you
ever wake up really really early and like
you're riding the train trying to do something healthy
you see just like this guy is like fucking
passed out
but the opposite
I saw a dude on the subway
who was like
I don't know how this works
physics wise but he was like
a full like
I would say even 60 degrees
to the right like somehow
fully asleep
standing too
like a Michael Jackson party trick
he just got the right angle right when the train started
actually the right angle would be 90 degrees
and you said he was 60
which would be an acute angle
the right angle
the correct angle
alright we can go back
you really got out of your seat there
sorry
I was like gripping the sides of this chair
my nails dug through the fabric
alright you want to try to answer some more questions
hold on a second
you guys can talk amongst yourselves
what happened with you
she's got a lean over
I couldn't get to 60 degrees
try to find some non-relationship questions
but we can only get so far so let's talk about
eating out girls
woo boy
we need a guy's name
Brian it's your turn
Ashley
spelled
as h l e y
nice
like every letter you were thinking about
maybe this is gonna go
we're gonna go crazy
traditional is how
the funnier you are the less funny you have to be
big ups to true
I mean Drew's still hanging with us
true
Ashley writes here's my problem
I'm always cautious about germs
around me like Sharon drinks with friends
or using public restrooms
but that doesn't interfere with most of my life
and I like the peace of mind I get from being clean
this does however cause a problem
in sex
as you know sex can be gross
sweat, juices, spit
all of this is fine
even sexy for me until I have to put
my mouth where her honey is
what
whenever I go down on a girl I feel like throwing up
and I have to stop
this feeling is worse if she's not clean
shaven I hate hair in my mouth
in general I think the problem
is I can't forget that this
is where she pees from and I feel like I'm
lapping up her pee particles
I don't want that in my mouth
what if you guys sorry I want
to become better at sex
and there's only so much I can do with a dick
have you guys ever tried something that you
thought was gross in bed
how did you get over it
my solution now is to take oral sex
off the table for both parties
as I am not too excited about receiving
blowjobs either this has
worked in my past relationships however
I want to provide any future sexual partners
with a fulfilling experience
I'm a single 23 year old
male of course you are
thank you for any
help you can give me lots of love Ashley
nothing like there's a lie going on here
I'm like having a healthy sex life
like taking oral sex off the table
it is a non-starter
for me and I make that abundantly clear
at least like that he's like I also don't
like blowjobs because I feel like we've gotten
plenty of questions that are like I don't want to eat
out but like I love getting my dick
that's what's most interesting to me about this
because who doesn't like it
have you ever heard of such a thing do you
experience such a thing have you
I feel like you just I don't know
I mean I guess if he says so then he doesn't
you don't believe him
I believe him 100%
I guess I think this is
just something where it's like you gotta
you gotta get over it
it's like it's
sex is we I mean when I first
started having sex when I was a real young guy
four
holy shit
no it wasn't that young
I thank you for clarifying you were four
when you were six
I was a four
I was really stepping up
yeah I mean
at first when it's
yeah I remember being like oh this is like oh it's gross
because oh we have to work with the places where
we pee but then you just have to grow
the fuck up and get over that
I don't really know how to do it
if you don't want to just take the time
to do it yourself maybe hypnotic therapy
wow have you ever used hypnotic therapy
to get over something I've been hypnotized
on stage in a Vegas show
there is a video
of this and it is
spectacular Nick has the dvd
I will never watch it
late you really got hypnotized
I don't remember a lot of it
I thought that was a joke
no it's real my friend
I was a full skeptic
it was like a Vegas hypnotism show
and I've been reading about
hypnotism a lot and I was like I really want to be hypnotized
and I was talking about it all the time
I don't really believe it
when we went to the show and Brian and our other friend
Erin got hypnotized
and they were fucking hypnotized
they were really hypnotized
oh yeah it's amazing
it's like you guys saying
no magic is real it actually happened to me
it's the thing I think hypnotists are actually really
frustrated because people
lump the two together
basically getting into a hypnotic state
is a very natural state that happens
to literally every person every day
when you fall asleep at night that place you go to
right before you fall asleep where you're like
not asleep yet but you're definitely not awake
that's the hypnotic state and when someone hypnotized you
they induce you to that state
for a prolonged period of time
how do they get you there if you're not tired though
you were getting sleepy dude
they say a lot of
words they lead you there
they rub their little spoon
in their teacup
it's a very particular way
to relax you using your voice
and you have to really trust the person
and when you get there
you have to want to be hypnotized
so this is how I knew
that it was real
is because I've seen Brian
on stage
infinity
I know how he is on a stage
and I saw him being that way
at the beginning of the show
which is like he's very friendly
and he wants to please
he's like
was doing everything that the hypnotist said
it was very cooperative
and as soon as he was hypnotized
he became this
full serial killer
just was
just like
his eyes were half open
just like talking in a really deep voice
and what did they make you do
I mean a lot of things
I mean the more G rated stuff
do you remember when he made his belt
a snake
I remember being so fucking scared of that snake
I almost couldn't breathe
I was sweating so much
I mean towards the end
I had to fuck a male blow up doll
that happened
with your actual dick
and then did they tell you
they were going to do that
well they said they were all having a porn audition
they bring out the blow up doll and they're like
this is a very hot
sexual partner for you
and then were you actually fucking it
everyone had girls and I didn't have one at all
and they gave me a guy and the whole audience went crazy
because I don't know if you guys know this
Vegas shows are mostly homophobic jokes
it's crazy
so you don't remember that
I remember it kind of the way you remember a dream
that's sort of the way I remember it
not in control
so what could he have made you do
could he have made you kill yourself
apparently you would never do anything
you wouldn't do in real life
so if he said go kill your mom or something
you'd snap out of it
but you also don't know what your boundary is
because I wouldn't think I would
just fuck a male blow doll on a Vegas stage
but I did
and really went at it
Brian sat on his face
I was like 69
were you like I'm actually fucking a thing
or were you like trying to do jokes
I wasn't trying to do jokes
because like
there's no sense of the audience
I remember like hearing laughter
or applause and being like
why are they there
it wasn't even people it was just like
you have no fear all your fear is gone
highlights of the show
weren't even those
is when they went around and asked everybody
their porn star name
they asked like they were like
and people were saying porn star names
and Brian said a pretty reasonable porn star name
which was dick dog
and in this like low like
dick dog
like serial killer voice
then our other buddy Aaron who is
I mean we could do an hour long podcast
on this fricking character
but he said his
fucking porn name
everyone was saying like weird sex names
in this hypnotic trance
like Calamine potion
and like it stopped the hypnotist
in his track
Calamine potion
he must have thought of that before right
I don't know what
no because who would think like
what is even the purpose of saying that
second the guy
the thing he had to do was every time he heard a certain song
he made Aaron dance
like river dance style as fast as he could
and Aaron is like a good dancer
like is like was trained
and is like a good dancer
and he went at it so hard that he
puked that he had
on stage he vomited
he had to leave go to the bathroom
puke wall wall hypnotize and then kind of like
wandered back up onto the stage
he didn't know that he was doing that
it was still in the trance the fugue state
he kind of was like I have to
like I think he knew he had to puke
obviously because he like raised his hand
and went I have to go or something
but the fact that he returned
to the stage was amazing
I remember like it's so funny
because I remember watching other people
on stage and being like why are the people
on stage laughing like the audience is going
crazy and all the people who are hypnotized are just like
dead eyed and staring at nothing
then when I was on the stage and like you guys were all laughing
I remember being like what the hell are they
laughing I couldn't figure out what
was funny why you thought it would be
funny like who you were
pretty big yeah big Vegas show
I don't know 500 people that's crazy
and did you know that you were going to get chosen
no so here's what happens is they have
like 100 seats on the stage and they
say alright come fill up the chairs
so you have to go up on stage
so anyone can go up so the idea
is they're trying to get the people who are most susceptible
so if they just choose you at random
it's like an audition yeah so if you
go up and like fill the chairs you're already
kind of an extrovert you're already sort of ready to do it
and then once they get you in the chairs
he kind of inducts everyone and tries to see
like which eight people are going to be
and you were chosen because you were most
it was also like a lot of our friends
that were going were not into the idea
of seeing a hypnotist show
and I was like please god let
one of our friends get chosen
otherwise we're just seeing a bunch of strangers
like goof off were you at all skeptical
after are you like no afterwards I was
fully I was like yeah that was
fucking real we're going to Vegas tomorrow
I really want Nick would you do it would you go on
stage I don't think so I don't think I would work on me
everyone it can
work on anyone thing anyone
can be hypnotized if you want it yeah I think
it probably can work on you that only
like the people who are really susceptible can have
work on them on a Vegas stage that quickly that's
the thing and you're saying so with hypnotherapy
they can just inception
you give yourself like okay you're no longer
afraid of this and then when you wake up you aren't
I've heard of different people
I don't know I mean
just decided for smoking yeah but I've
heard people some people be like yeah it works
for me and some people be like I think it's
yeah I heard some interview with someone who
did it for smoking and they were like yeah
it worked for a bit and then it didn't
yeah like wears off
well solid it's like getting a cortisone shot or
something just like yeah I also feel like
there's a zebo effective
I just paid like a thousand dollars to this guy
to say I better not smoke again
to otherwise I'm an idiot
it needs to work
yeah that would be funny it's like I'm not going to hypnotize you
just pay me a thousand dollars to quit smoking
but you don't want to pay me and then still smoke
that would be a waste of your time
a thousand dollars on fire
in response to our friend Ashley though I would say
I used to not like
whatever
I used to not
like olives
and I trained myself to like olives so I think
you know I'm like halfway
there right now really you guys
I can avoid them but now like
if I have one in my mouth
accidentally I'm okay you can eat it on a pizza
put it in a salad that's all right
oh man
I don't know
that many people like go down
on a girl the first time and are like
this is great I think it's probably
for me certainly it was an acquired taste
like beer or olives
I remember seeing like in a coffee
porno magazine for the first time when I was like
in seventh grade or something and I saw somebody
eating somebody out and I was like
that's insane do you know
that like I like talk to my dad I was like
this happens
my parents would talk to me about sex
and I was like you didn't tell me everything
what's this one
liar did you know about this
it's disgusting
your mom's like trust me he doesn't
that's enough
my father please my mother
I remember my dad told me
what masturbation was
like I had been masturbating
since my hands
found my dick
and I thought I invented it
and I was like
I thought I'd come up with it because I was like
I don't know if you guys know this but if you rub
your hands on your dick
it feels great so I was doing it
constantly and my parents would be like
stop doing that
but they wouldn't really tell me
so you were doing it like a really young kid
young yeah I mean
like when I was fucking
Brian had been fucking for several years
I mean I don't remember exactly
I don't think I was associating it with sex
I just was like this feels good
then I remember
I saw the Thomas Crown Affair
great movie
the remake with Renee Russo
which is filled with soft core sex
and
I remember kind of being like I bet
if I do my little hand
I wasn't like jacking off the way you
normally do it but I would
like kind of just rub
my hands generally on my dick
yeah and
I was like I bet if I do that at the same time
as I think about Renee Russo
and Pierce Brosnan
fucking on his marble staircase
it'll feel good and it did
and I was like I figured something out here
and then I was
an episode of Dawson's Creek that I
had to watch with my father
that was the rule if I wanted to watch Dawson's Creek
and
the masturbation came up
and I was like
what's that word I've heard that word
and my dad said it's what you do all the time
it's how you embarrass our family
it's when you take your hands
and simulate sex
on yourself and I got
beat red and I was like oh fuck
I've been
doing that all the time
and you have to watch Dawson's Creek with your dad
just because he doesn't want to watch it alone right
it's like when you have to watch the wire with your girlfriend
like you can't watch an episode with Adam or he'll get mad
I think it became that but it started
at I was like
all my friends were watching Dawson's Creek
my mom was like it's inappropriate
and then they were like alright fine
you can watch it but you have to watch it with your father
so he can like walk you through stuff
so after every Dawson's Creek
we had a sort of talking dead
of sorts
you should start a podcast
talking creek
so you're saying it's an acquired taste
you can learn to love
I think suck it up
pun intended
I think suck it up
because when you eliminate oral sex
you have finger sex
and penis sex
to have
and there's only so many options
I have a question
because I don't care about the germs
associated with sex
is he right in any way shape or form
are there pee particles
on your penis or vagina
for sure right
there's pee particles
but pee comes out of it
why wouldn't there be
he is more sterile than saliva
that's a thing
I don't think there's germs in it
precom I know
in the dick
I don't know anything
but I think precom
cleanses your urethra
of any
piss particles
but I don't know if that happens in the vagina
I don't know
there's gonna be around
it's just part of it
I don't know
if you're a neat freak
and you're like I need to wash my hands
all the time
there are germs everywhere
in the world you're never gonna be completely clean
and you might as well not make the thing
you're gonna be grossed out by
something that feels fucking great
it may not have any more germs than anything else
in your head though it seems like it
I feel like if I opened up every bathroom door
with my mouth that would be
really dangerous and bad for me
but is it any worse than making out with a chip
would you basically do that?
you wash your hands but then you open a bathroom door
and you touch a door handle
you touch a desk, you touch a surface, you touch money
I'll take a shit all the ribs
I'm sucking on my fingers it's no big deal
this may be a crazy theory that's not backed up
by science but I like to think that there's probably
an article that supports it
this is a crazy idea
you need to have
exposure to germs
because you don't want your immune system
to lay dormant
become like a bubble boy for sure
that's like when you give your kid chicken pox early on
there's a balance probably
he is late to the game if he's 23
he doesn't like going down on somebody
I feel like I was judgmental at first though
but I am remembering how much I do not like olives
and I'm just like I'm so stubborn
it's so different
this is giving pleasure to somebody
it's just like an olive I don't know if I would
but would you give the olive to other people
if it made somebody really really happy
would you put an olive in your mouth just for a minute
you could spit it out afterwards
I guess so yes
depends on who's olive
exactly just like vagina
I wouldn't just eat someone out
because it made them happy per se
I would need to have a connection with them
I do it mostly for other people's pleasure
I need to please
I have two questions for you olive hater
one do you like pickles or same thing
pickles are fine I don't love them
because they're very similar to olives
not to me oh no way
I disagree with that
because I love pickles
and I like olives now but it took me
I like pickles from the jump
I hate pickles more than olives actually
and then the second thing is
if you can get hypnotized
to like olives would you
if I didn't have to pay for it
if you can snap your fingers and like olives
I would do that
yeah sure because I'd like them I have another thing to like
so maybe this hypnotherapy thing
isn't such a bad idea
that's not what we've been debating
we've always said it was fine
he's got a set for himself
you gotta go down on the next
10 girls you hook up with
and if you still hate it
then I don't know
then I guess
find a girl that really hates blowjobs
they exist
if you get in a relationship
with someone you really like
you kind of will like it more
that will help
if you're just hooking up with strangers
and you're drunk and you don't care
then yeah I can see how that would be
that's another good piece of advice though
get drunk
love it
I've always wondered
why olive oil is so much better than olives
olive oil is good but you have like
I can see 100 olive related questions
you've been jotting down on your computer
pickled red peppers
I had no opinion
that was the right answer
yeah I'm not walking into that hornet's nest
I'm getting on either side of that one
I have a hundred index cards
they're just different pickled vegetables
alright we're just about out of time
anything you want to plug before you get the hell out of here
keep in mind 100 million people
will be listening to it
if all 100 million of you
could go to brytanic.com
for separate times so it doesn't crash
oh that's good
watch our little videos
or stoop a little videos
that was your big thing
when you were in New York
you would make these kind of epic
like Jake and I were churning out two videos a week
forever and then you guys all garbage
we may do one a year
but it was high quality though
definitely
subjectively
do you have a favorite
one
I like the most recent one the faux pas
it's like a time travel one
I like on the house
oh yeah that's our favorite
you know which one sticks in my mind is the free throw one
oh yeah the foul line
so that's three recommendations
brytanic with a CK
or just a K
bryan, nick and titanic
that's the part that people might be confused
the whole name is such a nightmare
wait why brytanic
I know this in a podcast
two weeks ago in this exact same room
because we were trying to figure out a name
we were like hmm let's see oh ok bryan
and nick bryan and
nick brytanic
so you didn't spend a lot of time
I think we saw like you get zero time
brytanic and they were like that's perfect
everyone will pronounce it correctly
and then when we're 31 years old
we'll still be referred to as
like brytanic
like this made up word
it is pretty cool that you can create
it's kind of like what we did with head gum
it's like it's
once you know the word you can just register
it for everything because nobody ever thought of brytanic
right oh yeah if you google it it definitely
will only show up
I don't know if you've seen Dunkirk yet
I really thought you were going to take
a little clip in Dunkirk
where there's a ship that's pulling up
that says like the new
brytanic on it
it was a ship
you know it's a British ship or something
a British titanic but it's spelled
slightly differently but it's like
kind of in the font that we use
that's insane and like
it was a very fun moment in the very
dramatic film for me
that's me
and back to the
people ever coming to like I feel it's
so embarrassing like oh my god you're um
and I'll be like oh from
brytanic they'll be like no we grew up in
Atlanta what is it what is that word you just said
oh god no I don't even want to
no we're cousins I'm so sorry
this is a weird family reunion
I make them get there
I'm just going to learn that after a while
the same exact thing happened to me
but I had only happened once where somebody was like
how do I know
what do I know you from and I'm like
Jake and Amir college humor
no did you go to
North Haven High
oh god damn me
why do you say your name in another person's name
oh shit and I'm sorry
