Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:54 But it's not. It's Kianian. Don Kianian. Don Kianian. That's a cool name. Yeah. Weird song. Cool name.
Starting point is 00:01:02 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?
Starting point is 00:01:14 Brytanic. That's right. Two internet duos. That's right. Oh my god. Yes. From the 2008 specific era. We should swing.
Starting point is 00:01:22 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.
Starting point is 00:01:32 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.
Starting point is 00:01:49 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.
Starting point is 00:02:05 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.
Starting point is 00:02:20 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.
Starting point is 00:02:33 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.
Starting point is 00:02:49 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.
Starting point is 00:03:07 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.
Starting point is 00:03:26 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?
Starting point is 00:03:34 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?
Starting point is 00:03:46 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...
Starting point is 00:03:55 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.
Starting point is 00:04:04 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?
Starting point is 00:04:12 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.
Starting point is 00:04:23 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.
Starting point is 00:04:38 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.
Starting point is 00:04:50 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.
Starting point is 00:05:03 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?
Starting point is 00:05:19 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?
Starting point is 00:05:29 Yeah. How do you always say it? I mean, I think that sounds right. That sounds like a solid... Grafethin. Grafethin. Right. Grafethin.
Starting point is 00:05:44 Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin.
Starting point is 00:05:52 Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin.

Starting point is 00:06:58 Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. Grafethin. labyrinth in my mind to put that together.
Starting point is 00:07:07 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.
Starting point is 00:07:26 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.
Starting point is 00:07:46 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.
Starting point is 00:08:02 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.
Starting point is 00:08:18 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.
Starting point is 00:08:38 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.
Starting point is 00:08:54 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.
Starting point is 00:09:10 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.
Starting point is 00:09:26 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.
Starting point is 00:09:42 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
Starting point is 00:09:58 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.
Starting point is 00:10:14 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.
Starting point is 00:10:30 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
Starting point is 00:10:46 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
Starting point is 00:11:06 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.
Starting point is 00:11:22 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.
Starting point is 00:11:38 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.
Starting point is 00:11:54 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.
Starting point is 00:12:10 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,
Starting point is 00:12:26 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.
Starting point is 00:12:42 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.
Starting point is 00:12:58 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.
Starting point is 00:13:14 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.
Starting point is 00:13:30 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.
Starting point is 00:13:46 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?
Starting point is 00:14:02 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?
Starting point is 00:14:18 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...
Starting point is 00:14:34 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.
Starting point is 00:14:50 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,
Starting point is 00:15:06 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.
Starting point is 00:15:22 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.
Starting point is 00:15:38 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.
Starting point is 00:15:54 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
Starting point is 00:16:10 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?
Starting point is 00:16:26 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,
Starting point is 00:16:42 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...
Starting point is 00:16:58 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?
Starting point is 00:17:14 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,
Starting point is 00:17:30 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.
Starting point is 00:17:46 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.
Starting point is 00:18:02 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?
Starting point is 00:18:18 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.
Starting point is 00:18:34 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.
Starting point is 00:18:50 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.
Starting point is 00:19:06 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
Starting point is 00:19:22 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.
Starting point is 00:19:38 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.
Starting point is 00:19:54 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
Starting point is 00:20:10 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.
Starting point is 00:20:26 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.
Starting point is 00:20:42 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?
Starting point is 00:20:58 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.
Starting point is 00:21:14 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.
Starting point is 00:21:30 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.
Starting point is 00:21:46 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...
Starting point is 00:22:02 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.
Starting point is 00:22:18 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?
Starting point is 00:22:34 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.

Starting point is 00:25:46 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.
Starting point is 00:26:02 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
Starting point is 00:26:18 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
Starting point is 00:26:34 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
Starting point is 00:26:50 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
Starting point is 00:27:06 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
Starting point is 00:27:22 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
Starting point is 00:27:38 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
Starting point is 00:27:54 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
Starting point is 00:28:14 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
Starting point is 00:28:30 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
Starting point is 00:28:46 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
Starting point is 00:29:02 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
Starting point is 00:29:18 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
Starting point is 00:29:34 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
Starting point is 00:29:50 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
Starting point is 00:30:06 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
Starting point is 00:30:22 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
Starting point is 00:30:38 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
Starting point is 00:30:54 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
Starting point is 00:31:12 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
Starting point is 00:31:28 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
Starting point is 00:31:44 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
Starting point is 00:32:00 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
Starting point is 00:32:16 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
Starting point is 00:32:32 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
Starting point is 00:32:48 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
Starting point is 00:33:04 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
Starting point is 00:33:20 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
Starting point is 00:33:36 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
Starting point is 00:33:52 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
Starting point is 00:34:08 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
Starting point is 00:34:24 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
Starting point is 00:34:40 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
Starting point is 00:34:56 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
Starting point is 00:35:12 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
Starting point is 00:35:28 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
Starting point is 00:35:44 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
Starting point is 00:36:00 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
Starting point is 00:36:16 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
Starting point is 00:36:32 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
Starting point is 00:36:48 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
Starting point is 00:37:04 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
Starting point is 00:37:20 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
Starting point is 00:37:36 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
Starting point is 00:37:52 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
Starting point is 00:38:08 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
Starting point is 00:38:25 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
Starting point is 00:38:41 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
Starting point is 00:38:57 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
Starting point is 00:39:13 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
Starting point is 00:39:29 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
Starting point is 00:39:45 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
Starting point is 00:40:01 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
Starting point is 00:40:17 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
Starting point is 00:40:33 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
Starting point is 00:40:49 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
Starting point is 00:41:05 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
Starting point is 00:41:21 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
Starting point is 00:41:37 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
Starting point is 00:41:53 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
Starting point is 00:42:09 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
Starting point is 00:42:25 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
Starting point is 00:42:41 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
Starting point is 00:42:57 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
Starting point is 00:43:13 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
Starting point is 00:43:29 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
Starting point is 00:43:45 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
Starting point is 00:44:01 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
Starting point is 00:44:17 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
Starting point is 00:44:33 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
Starting point is 00:44:49 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
Starting point is 00:45:05 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
Starting point is 00:45:21 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
Starting point is 00:45:37 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
Starting point is 00:45:53 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
Starting point is 00:46:09 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
Starting point is 00:46:25 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
Starting point is 00:46:41 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
Starting point is 00:46:57 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
Starting point is 00:47:13 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
Starting point is 00:47:29 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
Starting point is 00:47:45 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
Starting point is 00:48:01 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
Starting point is 00:48:17 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
Starting point is 00:48:33 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
Starting point is 00:48:49 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
Starting point is 00:49:05 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
Starting point is 00:49:21 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
Starting point is 00:49:37 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
Starting point is 00:49:53 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
Starting point is 00:50:09 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
Starting point is 00:50:25 oh god damn me why do you say your name in another person's name oh shit and I'm sorry alright opening theme song again was written by Don Keonion closing theme song is by Maki Maki Maki Maki
