So we're supposed to start the podcast.
Ready, one, two, three.
Oh my God.
That was terrible.
One, two, three.
Oh, Judy Diana.
One, two, three.
Oh, there we go.
Judy Diana.
What's Judy Diana?
What do you be had it with What did you have it with?
I've had it with vendors text messaging me when I don't give them, when I give them
my email, somehow they connect it to my cell phone because I've fallen into the trap
that to get the discount, you give them your phone number.
Well, I've stopped doing that, but now I notice even places that I don't
give in my email like vendors are texting me and I'm like, fuck and stop it. I've had
it. They're double dipping. They're double dipping and it's horrible. Double, dippers
in the solicitation department. Yes. And I'm afraid it's going to get worse because we're
moving into the holidays. You know, here's what I don't appreciate. I don't appreciate when you give somebody your
cell phone number, like a med spa or a doctor's office or like a dentist. And in order to give them
your cell phone number, you're agreeing that they're going to text you a reminder of your
appointment, right, which I support. I do too. And then they start rolling out their guess what?
It's National Botox month, and we're giving you
a discount.
I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Or patient surveys.
I didn't agree to this.
Did not agree to this.
I agreed to the patient reminder.
I did not agree nor sign up for these solicitations.
Now, and it's like, if I wanted you to have my cell phone number, I would have given you my cell phone number. Let me ask you this. If we had all of our listeners cell phone numbers, right?
And our downloads, one particular day, were kind of low. Okay. And you could like mass text them
just a reminder, you have an episode to listen Okay. And you could like mass text them. Just a reminder, you have
an episode to listen to. Would you send it? I'd be the biggest hypocrite in the world if I
sent it, but I'd probably send it.
Listen, I have to eat a lot of crow. Please go give us a five star review and
therein leave your cell phone number. So pumps can remind you each Tuesday
and Thursday morning to listen to her lackluster the first two times but nailed it the third
clap clap that's exactly lackluster. I'll tell you what I've had it with okay all you can eat buffet
why have you had it with all you can eat buffet?
You would never go to one if your life depended on it.
They're gross.
Okay.
I don't think it's a good idea.
All you can eat.
I mean, I think that's just a bad tip from the start.
All you can eat.
Like I just, I don't think that that is a good thing for people. I don't think
just letting people go up to the trough and get a plate and go get another plate and
then go get another plate. I just I don't think it's a good idea. I also have had it with
the soft drink free refills. I think that is not good either. Number one, back in the day when my kids were little
and everybody was picky, I would always take them to a buffet so they could each
just get what they wanted and used to give me shit about it. I still remember it.
And so for that purpose, I do like an all-you-can-eat buffet and I absolutely
fucking love a free drink refill.
I don't mind it on a water, I don't mind it on a tea,
but on a soft drink.
I just think it's too much.
I think I think they need to start charging.
I will go out with my family
and then Roman will order like a sprite.
He's literally only drank four inches of it
and they already bring out another one. And I'm like, this is just not good. Like you're just promoting calorie
on top of calorie on top of calorie on top of calorie. I have had it. I don't like the all
you can eat buffet culture. I don't like the soft drink free refills. I don't like it.
I don't think it's healthy. I don't think people need that much. I think it's like all about we just have to consume.
And like another thing I've had it with
are the portion sizes of food in the United States of America.
It's disgusting.
They're big.
It's places are really big.
You could never eat all of it.
It's disgusting.
I don't like it.
I don't like it one bit.
I don't like getting it.
I oftentimes order the children's plate
if they will let me, even though I'm over 12 years old,
barely.
But I often, I'm just like, I wanna order the children's plate
because it's a more reasonable portion.
Right, I've ordered the children's plate before
and been overwhelmed by how big it was.
I think portion sizes are out of control.
I think the free refills are ridiculous.
Nobody needs that much of a soft drink.
And I also think the all-you-can-eat buffets are gross.
And I think Congress needs to act and ban them.
I don't like it.
I think if we could get Congress to do anything meaningful,
that would be the last thing on my list.
Well, I'm just saying that first of all, I'm saying that tongue in cheek obviously.
So I would appreciate you leaning into the nuance there.
And secondly, I just, I think it's all, I think it's just this consumption, like just, we're going to go out and we're going to eat all this food and drink all these soft drinks.
And I just, it kind of grosses me out. There's heart disease, diabetes, all this shit that's
going on in this country. And it's just like, free refills for everybody. All you can eat by
a heart attacks, beat them and guess what? Fuckers eat all you want to and you're not getting
health care either. That heart attack we're going to give you from the fucking golden crowd.
Guess what?
Tough titties when you have that heart attack fucker.
You're dead.
Oh, your family can't afford to funeral.
Tough titties.
Had it.
Welcome to I've had it.
I'm Jennifer.
I'm Angie.
She is judge Judy Diana.
Dolly, judge Judy Diana, Dolly, the store of our show.
That's right.
All right, listen up.
Pumps and I like to do this.
And it irritates the shit out of Kylie.
And she just looks at us like we're little kids, but we're going to do it.
We do it when we're traveling on tour all day.
And we crack up all day long.
And Kylie just is like, ah, you're all still at it.
And here's what we do.
We pick a person that's going to be a guest on the podcast
in our imagination.
Right.
And we have an imaginary interview with them.
And this entertains us for hours upon hours upon hours.
And so we thought, why are we enjoying this all to ourselves?
Right.
It's really so funny.
I mean, Kylie, we said, boy, y'all think you're so funny. So it might be a total bomb. Okay. But here's, here's our imaginary guest today.
Let's welcome to I've had it podcast, the former first lady of the United States of America,
Melania Trump. Pumps wanted to welcome Melania. Melania, we're so glad to have you here. We have so many questions. We've just been
dying to ask. Melania, right out of the gates, I just want to ask you, when Donald
fucked the porn star Stormy Daniels, were you relieved that you had a few nights
off? How about Melania? How do you feel about immigration, given that you You had a few nights off. Hahaha. Hahaha.
How about Melania?
How do you feel about immigration given that you were an immigrant and that he did fast
track?
Your residency.
So why aren't you out there helping immigrants on the border instead of sitting in the Gucci
Palace with your fat ass husband?
How about Melania?
When you fuck your husband, do you have him remove his makeup before or after sex?
Melania, do you swallow?
Melania, have you ever stuck your finger up? I'm not a fan of you.
Melania, have you ever stuck your finger up Donald's ass during sex and or a blow job?
If so, please describe what happened next.
Melania, when's the last time Donald ate you out?
Oh, it's repulsive.
I don't know if I can come up with a great...
Here's my number one question I would ask.
Okay.
How many times have you just slapped his face off because he won't shut the fuck up?
I mean, I want to know that and I want to know when are you divorcing him?
Now's the time because he's getting ready to lose all his money and writing a
tell-all. We're all waiting for that. See, I think that would require like some
sort of savviness and a self-awareness that she just does. Any any smart person at
this point would have immediately jumped ship from that and gone to publishing houses and told all and answered every question we just asked right painstaking detail from the oral sex down to the pegging to the pinky and the ass.
Tell it all.
Tell it all.
Get your cash.
Put it in the bank.
But is she doing it?
No.
No. No.
Melania, do you and Donald share makeup tips?
Hahaha.
Hahaha.
Melania, do you ever assist in applying his cosmetics?
Follow up question.
Does he also put the orange on his penis?
Hahaha.
Hahaha.
Hahaha.
Hahaha.
Hahaha.
Melania, like thank you for joining us that I've had it today. I'm not going to be a fan of you. I'm not going to be a fan of you. I'm not going to be a fan of you.
I'm not going to be a fan of you.

mothers. My mom has been gone for a year. And I just started listening to Jen and pumps.
And they have the exact same personalities that my mom had. My mom would have loved them.
And I look forward to the podcast every day thanks to my new moms. And then she adds, please send
money. I'll big t tip. That's so sweet.
And I'm very touched by that.
We'll be your honorary mall.
Absolutely, we will.
Yes.
The day we have a great guest, we have a guest that has a job that I really want.
I think it would be so fun.
He is a correspondent on the daily show and stand-up comedian.
And he's a former professional tennis player.
Let's welcome to I've had it, Michael Costa.
Pumps, are you still running around cramming spoons up your ass due to constipation?

closet. What's going on there? Oh, man, I was trying to be discreet. No, this is my office
at the daily show and the writer's strike is finally over. So I'm here and kind of
waiting on instructions. And this is what my office looks like. Shirts are here, some pictures, Tucker Carlson's head.
My gym bag, terrible blinds.
I've tried to have fix for years, but this is it.
This is where comedy is attempted.
Do you ever throw darts at the Tucker Carlson?
Yeah.
We throw verbal darts.
So I think that your job is so inviable
because I think there's nothing
more fun than making fun of breathtaking right wing stupidity. It's one of our favorite
past times.
Yes, we love it. I mean, in that material that they pump out to be ridiculed is infinite.
Look, a comedian's job is to call out bullshit.
That's those have been my favorite people, my favorite comedians.
I owe it to myself and the thousands of comedians before me who did that or attempted to do
that.
So, look, I'm willing to call out bullshit any direction.
It just seems like the right has gone insane.
I mean, I grew up in Michigan with a dad
that probably voted Republican most of the time.
I just don't ever remember it being so bat shit crazy.
Right?
Right.
It's gotten so crazy.
And people will come to my shows.
And I was in Phoenix last week and I made fun
of, I hypothesized that Donald Trump's pajamas were superhero pajamas and that he slept in
a race car bed.
And this just infuriated this one couple, like to the point of yelling and being so mad.
And look, if you're in power, you get mocked a little bit, you know, and we can make
fun of Joe Biden's pajamas also.
We do, but it's just so interesting that the side that talks the most BS has such a hard
time.
Just taking a little jab, you know. A little soft.
Okay.
So wait, let me get this straight.
So you throw out that you think Donald Trump's wearing super hero's, super hero under
ruse and sleeping in a car bed.
And there's a but hurt Trump couple in the audience.
That is awesome.
Yeah.
And it's awesome.
And the thing is, it's not like I start the show going, let me tell you about Trump.
I was talking about how my daughter had wear pajama
to daycare day.
And how nice it was for the parents,
you don't have to think about anything,
you just throw them in the car, they're there.
And I was thinking, you know, I wish all adults,
and in particular elected officials,
we could see their pajamas.
And Biden probably has a nice royal blue pajama
with white piping in the presidential
seal. Maybe the, maybe the pants are on backwards. And so I even made fun of, I even made fun
of Biden, right? So it's like, I got my Biden shot in. And then as soon as you made fun
of Trump, they got so upset. Now, I should also say there was 350 people there. Everyone
was having fun, right?
Except for those, except for those two.
Except for those two.
There's always a skunk at the Garden Party.
I like that.
Yes.
Yes.
All right.
Michael, what have you had it with?
Oh, man.
I loved that Susie Orman said, she doesn't even know what it's like flying in an airport.
She flies private. Oh, you don't even, you've never been to an airport.
You've never sat in traffic. I know you're wealthy. I know you have to exude this well for
often. But you can't even put your brain in the traffic. So I had it with that, okay?
Yeah, she totally flexed on us, didn't she? She did, but it was also really great that she was so honest about her life.
I love that. Yeah, yeah.
It's like, it wasn't doing the faux celebrity humility of, so I liked that, but I also like,
hey, Susie, I know you've been to an airport.
I've really struggled lately with people who don't communicate clearly.
And that isn't like emotional clarity.
That's the actual words coming out of their mouth so I can understand the message.
A really simple thing, isn't it?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mumbles, I get lots of mumbles, I pay a lot of money to this gym and then the instructor's like,
okay, six minutes, no, no, no, no, no how to really communicate. Right. You two are very good at it.
That's why you've got microphones in front of your face, but I just find it in general,
and maybe it has to do with the country and the division.
I don't know.
We're just not, we're not clearly communicating and we're also not receiving.
And that's another one of my pet peeves, non-engaged listeners.
Right.
Okay. I completely had it with non-engaged listeners. Right. Okay. I completely had it with non-engaged listeners and listener.
We're talking to you because let me tell you something, Michael, there's a huge
disparity on downloads that we have and Apple reviews, which means a lot of people are
not taking this process over the finish line.
And I'm talking to every mother, fucker with their ear pods and their ears
right now who have not taken the time to go give us one through five stars. We'll read
the one star, we'll read the five star. Honestly, we think we're a three to four star podcast.
We never get those. It's either one or five. It's black or white. You clearly communicated that message. I like those reviews also for my pod,
but I also kind of wonder why I want them so much.
Is it just for the number?
Like who gives a shit?
You know, everyone loves you.
I know, I love them so bad.
Yeah.
And it's like the, we, Pumps and I are so ridiculous
if we start falling in the charts.
She'll text me, we're face planning.
The podcast is completely face planning.
Right.
It's like ridiculous how immature we are.
Our core, it's unbelievable actually
that we're adults that have children.
We've bred.
You have a beautiful balance of,
we don't give a shit about this thing.
But also, we're very good at it and clearly our set, our mics, our out, we do care.
So I love that.
That's right.
I love it.
We're also slaves to our Apple Watches, though.
Like if my, if I'm sitting down with people and my thing says stand up, I mean, I hop up
like somebody has a gun to my head.
I mean, it's ridiculous.
So I think it's just that whole, anything Apple, I just think I have up like somebody has a gun to my head. I mean, it's ridiculous. So I think it's just that whole
anything Apple I just think I have to
succeed at it. So like so you're like totally fallen prey to the whole Apple monopoly the whole watch the podcast reviews
All of it. Yeah, I do get bummed out when I'm talking to someone and they look at the thing, they look at the
text. I don't think that's engaged listening. I think there's a lot of room for people who
do square up and really look at you and present you with like what you're saying is really important.
To me, I think I really, really remember those people. That's true, right. That's totally true.
You're right.
So I couldn't hear you too.
I was just checking my phone.
So.
No, when somebody really listens and is engaged,
it's really captivating.
And I don't know if it's our own narcissism
where it's like, they're really listening to me.
Like, she's really into what I'm saying.
That makes it so captivating, that maybe it's like, oh, I'm so amazing.
Look at how captivated she is. But I recently had brunch with a friend of mine and she was
so, she was such a great listener. And I felt like, God, if I can nail that conversation
way to go, Jennifer, totally. Okay. Michael, I, of course, like deep Googled you. Oh,
and you were a professional tennis player.
That's right.
Thank you for deep Googling me, by the way.
That's what I haven't heard that with.
I haven't heard that one before, but it feels great.
Not to be increased with deep throat.
It's the deep Googled.
I just get your head out of the gutter, Michael.
Okay, bye-bye.
But you're only a couple of years older than Roger Federer.
Have you met him? You're only a couple of years older than Roger Federer.
Have you met him?
I have met him thanks to Trevor Noah in the Daily Show because they Trevor has a Swiss father
and a South African mother.
And Roger Federer has the same breakdown.
So besides them both being Swiss and famous,
of course, it's like, you know,
they somehow know each other.
I don't know how that all works.
But in Trevor's last few days here at the Daily Show,
he said, he texts me and he said,
you better come in today.
And I'm like, first of all, I've been coming in
for seven straight years.
No one's even known up in the building.
So of course I'm coming in.
But it was Roger Federer was a guest. And Trevor brought me down and introduced me, gave me such a nice introduction.
And this, you know, this is ties back to what I've had it with. Roger stands up, squares up,
locks in. He's never met me in his life, right? And we chatted for 10 minutes. And it wasn't the length of the conversation.
It was the feeling that I got, he was paying attention to me.
And of course, I'm already a huge fan.
I'm already meeting my hero, but he really just locked in and listened.
And it was a special moment for me in the photographer.
I got this perfect picture of me talking to Roger.
And he's like listening,
like, like I'm some genius. And it was great. So yeah, I would, I wish I had his tennis
career, but I'll just take that quick meeting I had as a consolation.
Hey, so, okay, if you could change the results of any grand slam final, which one would
you change and why? Oh, that is such a bullshit question, but I will step that question.
There's only one right answer.
Oh, there is. Okay. If for you, is it 2019 men's Wimble then final?
No, that's it. When Roger had a couple of match points and no, yeah, no, Vax somehow beat him.
I, I want to hear your take on this. I no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, to him and it's just such a world class competitor that isn't perfect, but I love that about
him.
Oh, for fuck's sake.
I know, I know you're mad.
I know you're mad.
I'm furious with you.
You've had it with you, Michael.
Okay, here's the deal.
I've seen him play.
I just saw him win.
I was at the US Open Finals.
I was at the Wembolden Finals with it was the worst.
It was Kiragos and Novak.
The final, yeah. The final at Wembleden in 22. Anyway, here's my deal with Novak. Incredible
tennis player. He's phenomenal. I just, he loses me with like when he gives these interviews and he
says, you can pray over a glass of water and remove the bacteria from it.
And I just cannot celebrate that level of breath taking stupidity.
It deserves to be ridiculed.
I think it's fishy that he went with his documents into Australia.
I think it was kind of bullshit that he did that.
And then acted like he was some, you know,
that he was persecuted.
I don't like him personally.
For me, he doesn't have that it factor like Roger,
or Rafa, like he's phenomenal at tennis.
There is no question about it.
I just don't like him as a person.
He doesn't have that whole package for me.
And maybe I'm shallow and maybe I need the whole package.
But like Rafa is my favorite.
Roger, like my husband would,
like gay loves Roger. I mean, like, totally maybe leave me for Roger. That's how much
he loves Roger. I'm all in for Rafa. Like, I love him. He's an atheist. I'm an atheist.
Is Rafa, is Rafa, is Rafa, an atheist? Out of the closet atheist. Yes. Let me tell you
how much I appreciate someone publicly in the media saying that and also saying
that you don't like when an athlete brings up all the God stuff because I've been doing
this for 10 years and every time I do it I lose 2,000 Instagram followers.
Right.
And it's just nice to like you guys talk about your God all the time.
Can I talk about how I don't buy that?
Is that you know, and you know, who does this all the time? You know, who's, who's, who's been in the chest
and pointing out, your guy Novak Jokevic.
Oh, yeah.
That Jokevic, that too, he is.
Is he kiss the thing?
Oh, he does all the shit.
He does all that.
He owes it all to GOD baby.
But Rafa, he is, you can look on his,
even on his Wikipedia page, he is an atheist.
Let me, let me share something with you
that you two already know.
Okay. People
whose public images are perfect like Rafa, like Roger. They're not perfect people and they're
not perfect. It's well choreographed. It's well branded. They are really great people. And
it's not that Roger and Rafa aren't. But what I really appreciate about Novak
in consideration of those two is he's imperfect.
He fumbles, he stumbles, he gets defaulted
out of the US open for hitting a ball
at a line's woman's neck.
We're talking about the greatest tennis player of all time.
You know, he really has those fallible human like me
and you moments.
And I just, I just really appreciate it
because when I met Roger Federer, he looked good.
He was good, he smelled good.
It was a little too perfect.
Okay, listen, if you want to be fan...
He kissed great.
I'm just...

Let me ask you this. Do you play pickleball? That was on my list of
things I've had it with and I know through your Instagram that you pretend to like pickleball
and I think that a lot of people pretend to like this half ass bullshit, right? Trash, tennis,
trash, tennis, wannabe, checkers, sport.
It's so funny that you say white trash because my husband and I were, when we started playing it
because we've been to Wimbledon, we've been to Roland Garros,
we're like total tennis tourists, we play tennis.
And then so we would watch it on the YouTube,
like TV channel, and the commercials for pickleball
or like pickleball juice pickleball.
Let's go.
And my husband is really shallow, really pretentious.
I mean, Uber vapid, okay?
And he's like, God, I mean, pickleball is so white trash.
There was a racquetball craze in the 80s, you know, and it kind of reminds me of that.
Have you played it?
I've played it.
I enjoy it.
You know, that's kind of the one thread that keeps me, that keeps me open minded to it,
is that it is, it is fun.
You know, so was doing a cannonball off a high-dance.
Because I mean, it should be taken seriously.
So, um, have you ever won a pickleball tournament? Are you a medalist?
No, but I know you have. So shut up. Okay, just stop. It's so clear what's happening.
She's the most inseparable winner on planet earth. I mean, it's and then she's probably a terrible loser, right?
Actually, here's the weird thing about it.
She's a great loser.
She's so gracious and lost, but she acts like a complete dick when she wins anything.
I'm a sore winner.
She's a sore winner.
I kind of, I kind of accept sore winner if you're a classy loser.
I'm a total classy.
She is.
I really love it.
I think that's, I think that's cool.
Thank you.
More Americans are outside.
More Americans are playing something swinging, moving their feet.
This is good.
Elderly people have an activity that isn't harmful to their legs, hips, whatever.
It's all good.
It's all good.
Right.
And I, I will quote the great Martina Navratelova when I say, if it's all good. It's all good. Right. And I will quote the great Martina
Navratilova when I say, if it's that popular, then go build your own courts.
Michael, now it's time to play a game called had it or hit it. Oh my God. Welcome to
had it or hit it. I would hit it. I had it. I hit it every day sometimes twice a day.
All right. Had it or hit it. Raphael Nadal had it. I know this is his last year. Damn it,
Michael. I know. Well, you, you, I know it's his last year. He's 114. Goddamn rolling,
Garos. Just, you're done, bro. Go, you, you wanted a medium-sized fishing yacht. You got it. Go fishing. Bye.
What if he comes back and ties Novak? What if he wins the Australian and then rolling giraffes? Would you hit it? Yeah. I mean, I, I, one of my favorite things to do, just for me,
Just for me is
Listen to his post-match press conferences and just pull these nuggets of
positivity and and you know he says things like I prepare to be unprepared
He says things like it's all about who can suffer the most I mean here I am bitching because my like C train is crowded
and I got a transfer at J Street Metro Tech
and I'm hearing like it's all about who can suffer.
And I just, it just fills me with an exuberance of life.
So I do absolutely love the guy.
But take a, you're done dude, it's over, good run.
Had it or hit it, threads.
I think threads made a mistake in that it's, what is it?
What demo, you know, what is it?
I would like it if they said we're family friendly Twitter
or if they said we're edgy Twitter.
I just don't know, it's just the same thing to me.
I hate it because I always feel guilty
when I get back on Twitter when I have a threads account,
but they get the news so much faster on Twitter.
And it takes forever to load on threads.
And then so now I just don't even look at threads
and I hate that.
If I don't wanna do anything to help Elon Musk.
I feel like it's just one more thing we have to fucking check.
It's just one more thing.
Like I was recently in my DMs,
we're going to London next week to do a show
and the scroll was like,
hey, I've been WhatsAppping you.
And I'm like a person that I know that lives in the UK.
And I'm like, I don't check WhatsApp.
That's one more fucking thing I have to check.
And so I feel like threads is just one more fucking thing we have to check.
I don't, are you two so actually likable in real life that you answer fans like DMs and
stuff?
Some, some, yeah. I. Some. I try to.
I try to. I try to.
That's really nice. That's great.
I just can't imagine.
I'm very comfortable ignoring multiple of those.
And it makes my life better, I think.
Yeah.
But maybe that's why I'm hiding in a co-closet
and you two are on some expensive set.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
OK. Had it or hit it Walmart. So I live a bit of a dual life. I have a city
life and then I have a getaway house life in real America. And it's easy for me to say Walmart,
I've had it. I can't put up with it. The people, the putting the small businesses out.
But as soon as you go where that's all there is,
you go there for everything.
I go there for grapes, I go there for kids,
clothing, I go there for batteries, paint,
automobile stuff.
So I gotta say hit it, sorry.
She makes fun of me for going to Walmart too,
but I mean, it's a one-stop shop for everything.
I really do like it.
I mean, well, we recently went together and let me tell you how alarming it was.
So I go in and of course, you know, there's regional buyers, right?
And so we're in Oklahoma City.
There's this kiosk smack dab in the middle of Walmart with all of this.
I'll call it a fiction section, okay?
So it has all of these like Noah's arc
type books. My favorite book that I found Michael is probably one eighth of an inch thick,
and I'm not overselling this here. And the cover of it said scientific facts in the Bible.
Oh God, why are you doing this?
But also, you know, where you guys live, it's just,
it's just gonna, it's not, I don't see that book
in my Walmart, but, you know, good example,
my sister was visiting, we wanted to get her a cake,
she liked giraffes, she's older, she's like a,
you know, a 40 plus and somehow still likes giraffes,
whatever, and we wanted to get her a cake that looked like a giraffe.
And I called like five cake decorators.
No one was available, they didn't answer whatever.
I finally get someone that's,
oh, you got to call the Walmart place.
And it's like, I don't want to go to Walmart.
I want to go small business,
but they just weren't answering or didn't exist
or whatever, so you go to Walmart.
Right.
Okay.
Had it or hit it, pleated khaki pants.
Mm.
I would say had it pleated, had it khaki.
Really?
I like it.
Yeah.
I do wear a pair of khaki pants.
They're non pleated.
I just think of like, you know,
some frappoyed South Carolina wearing new balance and new Bangkok's hat that's twisted like like, you know, some frappaway South Carolina wearing new balance and new
Bangkok's hat that's twisted like that, you know, but.
Okay, had it or hit it.
This is your last one, man scoping.
I think man scoping is toast.
Really?
Yeah, there was a time there where everyone was shaving the chest and getting waxed.
I'm proud to say my man's escaping days are over. The hairy chest is in full effect.
I'm not afraid of it.
I've taken some TikTok videos
and they're the shirts a little too low.
And I don't edit, I post it.
The burnt rentals laying down on the rug naked.
I think that's back in. Maybe let's do it.
Body positivity. I like it. Hair positivity. Well, Michael, I cannot thank you enough for joining
us. I want you to give Rafa a chance for next year. He is the Spanish bull. And I think
he can come back. He's, he's unbelievable. were rolling girls, did you see the statue they made of him that was made of
steel or iron?
It's kind of interesting.
Yes, I saw him.
It was the greatest day of my life because let me talk to him.
Oh, okay.
22.
He won.
Hmm.
He's there winning.
I'm in the audience watching.
And then like the love of my life is also in the audience, which is Larry David.
And I'm just like, how am I, I've got Rafa,
I've got Larry, and I'm like, I love you too, honey, to Josh.
But I mean, it was one of the greatest days of my life.
That day being with those two men
and the day my sons were born,
I mean, that day was so much better than giving birth.
For sure.
Giving birth is way overrated.
It was like, it's the best day of my life.
I'm like, no, it's not. They're better when they're older, better when they're older.
Babies are not fun. I have a three and a half year old and she's getting to be great. And I have
a six month old who's getting to be a disaster. But you're in control. I love my family. And thank
you for having me. This was really nice and fun to chat with you ladies. I hope to do it in
person sometime. I know I would love that.
Yes, all right, thanks Michael.
Thanks Michael.
I just can't believe he likes Novak.
I just loved it so much when he...
Trolled me.
Trolled you.
I mean, that makes me so happy.
I know.
I know.
Here's the deal.
I know pickleball is not cool.
You're trying to make it cool.
I know that it's kind of white trash.
I know that if it's, I get the optics of it.
I understand the optics of it.
But when you play at my level of athleticism,
it's a major sport.
Okay, no, I just don't trust somebody
who's that die heart of a a no back
fan. I love you, Michael, but that's suspectous hell. That is vicious reasoning. I like
this reasoning. I liked it, but Rafa's better, Roger's better. Oh my God. In Mateo,
Baratini, listen, all you little gay listeners of ours go look at Mateo, Baratini. He really
has hot. I think even the lesbians would think he's hot.
I had no question.
Kylie, you think he's hot?
I couldn't pick him up out of a line up.
Oh, goddammit, Kylie.
All right, listen, go give us reviews, five stars.
We care about this.
We can't explain why other than we're profoundly immature.
Leave us a voice memo, hot shit to our documentary club on Patreon.
And we'll see you next Tuesday Thursday.
