Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey everybody, welcome to the Mean Boys Podcast. There may not be a heaven, but there's definitely a hell. I'm Keith Carey. I'm Connor McSpadden. And I'm... The exiled prince of the marmots. I would have also accepted people fungus. Okay, the marmots are good people.
Starting point is 00:00:29 Fungus, no. All right? Yeah, fungus isn't good people. Of course not. I wouldn't let fungus babysit. I think you're biased because you are currently living in a basement that is slowly turning into mushrooms. I really...
Starting point is 00:00:40 I thought... I was thinking the other day, I should buy a Venus fly trap to get rid of some of the bugs down there. Not a can of Raid, not a fly swatter, a Venus fly trap. It's cheap, and it does all the work for you. Tom. You know they're not just like in cartoons, like they're not going to just roam around and eat all the flies. Yeah, it's not like a Roomba for bugs.
Starting point is 00:01:00 I know how they work, they have a scent that attracts flies. Tom, you can't bring a fucking plant with a mouth into your weird basement because it's going to gain sentience. There's already so many swords. Yeah. I mean, yeah, no, I got the perfect defense point. Venus fly traps are completely friendly towards people. They just don't like bugs.
Starting point is 00:01:18 Serena fly traps, on the other hand. I have a mean backhand. Serena fly traps. Did I say Serena? That's my drag queen name from now on, for sure. That's so good. Oh, another one me and Jessica came up with. Serena Flytrap. Did I say Serena? That's my drag queen name from now on, for sure. That's so good. Oh, another one me and Jessica
Starting point is 00:01:28 came up with, Harry Ass Truman for a drag king. That might be mine. Yeah, Tom, give the listeners an update on the black mold in your basement.
Starting point is 00:01:37 It's on most of the wall in the corner. It is growing faster than the listenership of this program, to be certain. Just as useful to society. Yeah, very similar demographic, though.
Starting point is 00:01:49 Yeah. Except for the black part. It looks angry. If you look at it, it doesn't. You ever seen a wall frown? Yeah. No, it's not good. I got an air purifier, so I'm back to breathable air conditionings down there and uh which when i first turned it on
Starting point is 00:02:06 is it's got the little light that goes this is a problem and it was telling me like yeah you didn't know an air purifier could do the uh yiddish like flower spinning around on the side it's eating healthier air now. I just, you know... You are not still chain-smoking, inhaling fucking fried vegetable fumes in the kitchen? Well, it's just like... The problem is there's so many spiders down there, but they gotta eat something. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:02:35 There's mosquitoes... No, we don't know what you mean. Tom, they have to eat something? Like, you? Spiders have to eat some sort of insect. So if I get the Venus flytrap, I can just feed it all the spiders. That's at least several months of food. I feel like they wrote a children's song about this
Starting point is 00:02:47 Like the old lady who swallowed the fly Yeah, yeah, yeah You're in a weird Like we put out the snakes Now we got the mongoose I can fight Alright, here's the deal I bought a rhino
Starting point is 00:02:54 Because when those rhinos eat hippos I can fight and beat a Venus flytrap Alright, all you do is drop it on the ground The bat of the century The rumble in the basement Genuine question How big of a Venus flytrap do you think you could fight? Just your hands.
Starting point is 00:03:08 It's not a Harry Potter creature. You just... It's like fighting a vegetable. You're just like, meh. It's like fighting a vegetable. You know how everyone's fought a vegetable before? Well, yes, I agree. For the Venus flytrap, it would be fighting a vegetable.
Starting point is 00:03:21 Check out the Mean Boys Twitter for pictures of Tom doing an armbar in an eggplant. I'm just saying, they're good. They're somewhere between their plants. They're kind of like a pet. It could teach me responsibility. It would get rid of some of my bug problems. My sister gave... Okay, this is not a...
Starting point is 00:03:37 For Christmas... Hang on. For Christmas, my sister gave everyone a plant. All my siblings got Venus flytraps. I got a stick of bamboo because she said, I didn't trust you to take care of it. So they gave you one that's a weapon? This is the worst one of Aesop's fables I've ever heard. No, it's just a little stick of bamboo.
Starting point is 00:03:55 It's still alive, but barely. Like, it's dying. The top of it's dead. Tom has a pet stick. That he killed. He thinks he can bare-knuckle box a Venus flytrap, and his basement is full of poison. All is right with the world.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Yeah, you're at prime Tom shape. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, we're all fired up, gang. Shall we get into the Mexican joke-off? Dun-dun-dun-dun. Oh, come on, do this thing. What? Oh, the...
Starting point is 00:04:20 Oh, isotropical. There it is. It's hot again, bitches. Full rotation from my first appearance tom likes the cold because then that's when you keep saying i'm peaking a lot at three in the morning when it's 40 degrees yeah it's pretty pretty terrifying uh you want to start off sure thing the president of fifa said today that trump's travel ban could prevent the u.s from hosting the world cup in 2026 his grim prophecy appealed to the only thing Trump's political base loves more than immigrants,
Starting point is 00:04:46 soccer. Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott pulled down a woman's top at a St. Patrick's Day parade. He has been charged with assault, invasion of privacy, and offensive holding. Five-yard penalty, automatic first down. That's funny. That makes me feel like it's not. That's a good bump. I enjoyed it. That's funny. Two children were feel like it's not. That's a good bump.
Starting point is 00:05:05 I enjoyed it. That's funny. Two children were killed in a shooting in New Orleans. The mother was devastated, saying, if only the New Orleans Pelicans can shoot like that. They're a basketball team. Oh, okay. They're terrible.
Starting point is 00:05:17 That's a fantastic joke for whatever the overlap of a diagram between New Orleans basketball enthusiasts and school shooting fan is. I'm sure that their listeners of the Mean Boys audience, they just like the Pelicans because they're the worst mascots in sports history. They are pretty horrifying. That's, you know, that's... I don't know about the Mission Viejo Marmots.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Aren't they great? Oh, the Venus Flytraps seem tougher than the fucking Pelicans. Oh, dude, Venus Flytrap, but he's doing like the backwards like old-timey boxing twist, would actually be sick as fuck. I'm just knocked out at its feet. Just kidding. Venus tomtrap.
Starting point is 00:05:52 X's on the eyes. All right. 46 people were killed this weekend on an African garbage dump landslide. Connor McSpadden was shocked to learn that 46 people live in the toilet of Keith Carey's favorite couscous restaurant. Showdown. A garbage dump collapsed, causing a landslide of trash that killed dozens in Ethiopia. Residents are praising Ethiopia's new urban revitalization project. Not quite a show-off, but close.
Starting point is 00:06:19 A bus driver drove through a street music festival and killed 34 people in a fiery wreck in Haiti. The survivors scrambled to safety as the musicians began playing, feeling hot, hot, hot. Double showdown. 34 people were killed in Haiti this week after a bus crashed into a street parade. The country is in mourning and must reset its clock back to zero days without getting a Wyclef Jean song written about us. The whitest thing that's ever happened on this show is you mispronouncing Wyclef Jean. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:41 I suppose it is. It's fine. That was a cool showdown. Six have been hospitalized and two have died due to eating poison cheese. If you'd like to watch somebody die a slow, cheesy death, be sure to catch Conor McSpadden at the Bumblefuck Nebraska Event Center and Bowling Alley. Okay. Hey, man, there's a great local music scene in Bumblefuck.
Starting point is 00:07:00 Bumblefuck Shoot Comedy Music Festival. South by South. On an unrelated note, researchers are saying the oldest ancestor to man is a pale, fleshy bag with a mouth for anus. In unrelated news, Conor McSpanish has never felt more human. Oh, man. I thought I was dancer this whole time. Good old fleshy anus bag. What an amazingly weird killer's reference you just made, by the way.
Starting point is 00:07:28 Hey, man, I listened to music in 2010. That made me really happy. I fucking hate that song. Are we on Mr. Brightside right now? You fell off, Brendan Flowers. All right? Sawdust was the last listenable project, and that was a B-sides compilation. I don't get these references.
Starting point is 00:07:42 I'd like to know Connor doesn't speak for the whole podcast, and I quite enjoy Day and Age. Oh, okay. Battleborn was still terrible, though. All right. A massive influx of great white sharks have appeared off the coast of Cape Cod. Scientists think they're changing their migratory patterns for the shark lacrosse tournament. What? Cape Cod.
Starting point is 00:07:57 I understand. Rich New England people. It's just very sad. I was looking for... Hey, maybe I thought I wrote five good ones, and I only had four decent ones. You know how this show has poisoned my brain? It's like I was looking for a rape joke that wasn't there because I heard lacrosse. Oh, I thought it wasn't
Starting point is 00:08:09 the show. You know, I thought I was thinking about a right one and I was like, you know, they don't all have to be so evil. Sometimes it can just be about sharks playing things that require arms they don't have. Both sharks and lacrosse are great. Not rape, though. We're going to go to a lacrosse game with Tom. You know who doesn't rape?
Starting point is 00:08:25 Sharks. You know who does rape? Dolphins. Thank you. Yeah, okay, fine. That was a high five, motherfuckers. Congratulations. You can be the Johnny Cochran of sharks.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Just defending their virtue. Who's Johnny Cochran? He got OJF. Oh, yeah, good for him. Not for anybody else, but for him. Comedian Dave Chappelle showed up unannounced to give a speech at a town hall meeting in Ohio. Onlooker said his first statement was pretty good, his second one was great, and his third one got a little preachy and lazy until he finally just gave up and let Charlie and Don Al finish it.
Starting point is 00:08:59 That is a joke for no one. I know who Chappelle is. I don't get it, though. All right. On three, guys. One, two, three. Fuck everything. God is dead. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:12 We didn't really coordinate on that. No, I wanted to see if the telepathy would work, and boy, did it not. I thought we were going to go for Newark County Landfill, but I know what you were trying to do. Every time you guys count, you say, fuck everything. God is dead. I just went with the flow, and you guys changed it. I just said shark rape flow, and you guys changed it. I just had a shark rape. Yeah, dude, the best moment of me and Keith's professional lives was bombing so badly when
Starting point is 00:09:29 we told Gabe Chappelle to go back to Africa. He laughed. He was the only one who laughed. He was the only one who liked it. He said, that's funny, because I did go to Africa. Yeah, he got it. He's a smart guy. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:37 He knows what he did. Yeah. Shockingly, Dave Chappelle understands comedy. Everybody else, get on it. Yeah. I love him. All right, Tom. A moose had to be put down in the wildlife preserve in Alaska due to terrible leg injury.
Starting point is 00:09:49 After the gunshot, a cartoon squirrel came out of nowhere and exclaimed, And now something you'll really like. I'm going to go pull a bullet out of your head. Kind of gilded the lily at the end there. Oh, damn, Tom. That was some good stuff. Damn, there it is. Every time you make a reference to anything,
Starting point is 00:10:11 I'm surprised you know facts about something other than, like, you know, 14th century, like, rebellion leaders. The illegal is great. Yeah, no one's fighting you on that. Yeah. We're all family. The energy is strange at this table right now. It's fun.
Starting point is 00:10:23 I'm having fun. I know. All right. Nothing worse than when you say that with Christmas in your eyes while you're scratching your beard and you just look like, oh, what are you up to? I'm just rubbing my face for energy. For fuck's sake, Tom. Friction.
Starting point is 00:10:37 Yeah, my beard's like a solar panel for bad ideas. It feels crazy. Just let the sun hit it and then I feel like I can kill whatever. A new trend of adulting classes has become popular
Starting point is 00:10:50 among millennials venturing out for life on their own. A glaring omission from these classes is how to beg for mercy in Chinese while fashioning a makeshift
Starting point is 00:10:56 gas mask out of a wet superhero t-shirt in the mines. Our empire has grown soft and we deserve our fate. I like that. There's a lot of
Starting point is 00:11:03 information. Yeah, that was too much i overloaded should rub my beard faster oh he's getting ready for something he's doing two hands i'm trying to slow the pitch down for tom this time a u.s senator publicly recognized the work and impact of rapper biggie smalls the american government has vowed to honor his legacy by making this country a place where all young, hard-working black men will always be able to be murdered without consequence. That one's
Starting point is 00:11:32 tough because it's true. Yeah. Rub the beard. Close it strong. I love this energy. An old woman came out of her home to throw rocks and then try to shoot a drone out of the sky with her rifle. She told the press, no cyborg Mary Poppins is going to steal my peach cobbler recipe. Fucking what?
Starting point is 00:11:55 You should have rubbed your beard a little more, buddy. What could you have possibly meant? I mean, do you want me to try to explain? No. I mean, yes. Yeah, you have to. I mean, the joke is that this old lady thought that the drone was trying to steal her peach cup because old people are paranoid. Old people are paranoid.
Starting point is 00:12:15 Maybe. You know, Venus fly traps outside their house. Maybe I thought that I was going to do that joke earlier and not close on that one and then did them all out of order because of the showdown and you fill in the blanks. Welp. But doesn't this end on a cooler note than if I murdered... Everyone's happier this way.
Starting point is 00:12:40 No one wants me to succeed fully. I like that we're just quiet for long enough. Tom keeps saying wisdom. My parents told me that. Tom, keep digging. You'll get to China eventually. China will come to me. I'm not going anywhere.
Starting point is 00:12:54 There it is. The Mean Boys will be right back. All right, Neil. We're almost there. Oh, the moon, bro. I'm so amped. Hey, check in with Houston. Houston. Houston to Apollo. We're just checking in. we're almost there. Oh, the moon, bro. I'm so amped. Hey, check in with Houston. Uh, Houston?

Starting point is 00:13:17 What is the problem? Oh, sorry, that was an accident. Yeah, I was saying the Houston Oilers have a problem with their QB. I heard they lost again. Ugh. Please focus on the moon, Neil. All right, Neil. You ready for this?
Starting point is 00:13:29 Suit up. Right. Okay, where's the camera? I don't know, bro. Where'd you put it? Where'd I put it? Where'd you put it? You were in charge of the camera, dude.
Starting point is 00:13:39 It was specifically stated in the rundown, bro. Oh, like you read the rundown. No, this is what I'm talking about, Buzz. You've been a dick this whole time. Hey, Neil, stop talking about sports. Hey, Neil, stop messing with the controls. Hey, Neil, stop talking about pussy. We've been up here forever, dude.
Starting point is 00:13:54 I don't know what keeps you from opening the emergency hatch, but I like to play with the ship's joystick and talk about Tang. God damn it, Neil, it's a spaceship, and you should know it's not called a joystick. You should know what the controls are. At least I know what a camera is, dumbass. It's gotta be up here somewhere. Houston, uh, we have a problem this time.
Starting point is 00:14:11 Um, so, Houston got a touchdown. They are tied with the Patriots currently. No, Houston, we forgot the camera. Buzz! Buzz, you forgot the camera? I thought Neil had the camera. That's it, Buzz. You stay on the ship. Neil's going on the moon. But I want to go to the moon. But we still don't had the camera. That's it, Buzz. You stay on the ship. Neil's going on the moon. But I want to go to the moon. But we still don't have a camera.

Game over. Congrats, Mr. Armstrong. The Mean Boys would like to thank Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin for recording the moon landing audio Neil Armstrong continued his career to become the
Starting point is 00:14:49 world's greatest trumpet player Buzz Aldrin never walked on the moon but walked on earth excessively Houston packed their bags and moved to Tennessee you may know them today as the Tennessee Titans Alright guys I'm bringing it back. Back here on the Mean Boys podcast,
Starting point is 00:15:10 and we're going back to one of the favorite Mean Boys games. Give a warm welcome to another round of the famous, well, not famous, but to the game. Not the favorite, because that's some other game, and not the second favorite, because you gave that to someone else. But I'm going to say this is a third favorite game, just by patenting. Give it up for Tom Tomperdy.
Starting point is 00:15:39 It was so good, it has a 90-second introduction. Hi, Tom. That's why you gotta let Tom bring it back from commercial there will be blood had less exposition than that and I didn't see that movie either do you want to briefly explain this to anybody
Starting point is 00:15:56 who hasn't heard a Tom Tomperdy episode I mean basically add Jeopardy plus my brain and you get Tom Tomperdy Tom has remarkably interesting ways of describing very common concepts and things, so he's brought some of those in, and this is a game of Jeopardy. We have to try and figure out
Starting point is 00:16:12 what the fuck Tom is talking about. A reversified version of our game Lightning Round where we'd say something. We'll do a quick example right now. Penguins. Oh, snow ducks. There you go. Just like that. Backwards in Jeopardy format

Starting point is 00:30:04 No, no, no. You find out when we get our answers. We reveal it when we get it wrong and get mad at you. I love that Tom built the version of a game he has never watched. But I've watched it. I just didn't like it. I didn't pay attention. That'll show him.

It was just wrong color, wrong object? Man Wait, what? It was just wrong color, wrong object, man And it's an author Let me know when you have a guess Do, do, do, do, Well, you have to guess something. I suppose I will just come up with something.
Starting point is 00:31:29 Okay, I'll make my guess first. Who is Dr. Seuss? And then Cotter? Oscar Wilde. I don't know. The correct answer was, who is Dr. Seuss? Wow. Green eggs and ham, motherfucker.

Starting point is 00:31:57 guess whatever oh yeah because on the show you got to write it down that's true reveal it yeah which theoretically we could have done but we did not i was thinking about someone with like a name like red like buttons and i was like, that's a comedian. Well, I basically was like, okay, I'm sure Tom has read three books in his life. He's read a Chuck Bavonick book, The Instruction Manual to a Car He Does Not Own, and then what book did he read? The Anarchist Cook book. Yeah, what book did he read as a child before he gave up on the concept of animals? I know more about the concepts of animals than anyone here.
Starting point is 00:32:27 You get defensive about the strangest things. Tom knows a lot of animal facts. When I was a kid, we had to pass the wild animal park in San Diego. I like how you said that. Everyone knows my position on the number of zoos and the zoo density of San Diego. I went there so often
Starting point is 00:32:41 that apparently when they had a new tour guide who fucked up information, I would correct them. And all the tour guides knew me, and they fucking hated me. This is when I was like six. That is the 15th time you've told that story. First on the podcast, though. I don't even know if that's true. I'm not 100% sure if that's true.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Well, you know, if you're proud of something, let it fly. You know, it works for birds. It works for true. Well, you know, if you're proud of something, let it fly. You know, it works for birds. It works for stories. Well, all right, Tom. Let's get you some wings and let the show go to break. That was the closest comedy we've had ever. Yeah, I guess so. I mean, I was trying to say I was proud of you for a second, but then you interrupted me to brag about your dumb game.
Starting point is 00:33:18 Well played, loser. We'll be right back. Ladies and gentlemen, the Mean Boys podcast is back. It is time to close the show, as we always do, with a round of our favorite games. Which is the following. Oh, yeah. Ladies and gentlemen, the Mean Boys podcast is back. It is time to close the show as we always do with a round of our favorite games. Which is the following. Aye, aye, aye. Damn it. No one's more disappointed than me that there should be double Tom Tomperty.
Starting point is 00:33:41 Quadruple Tom Tomperty. That could be its own podcast and I would listen every week. There's a couple people that just want me to do lightning round and Tom Tomperty. Yeah. Quadruple Tom Tomperty. That could be its own podcast, and I would listen every week. There's a couple people that just want me to do lightning round and Tom Tomperty as its own podcast. Yeah, we could absolutely do that. They're called all our fans. There's a new Tom Goss podcast in the works. And also, today's run of Witch of the Fong would be a little bit of a teaser episode
Starting point is 00:33:58 for the thematic elements that are going to make up this podcast. Witch of the Fong is not something the CIA did or tried to do? Some of these are like plots that didn't go through. CIA shit, you get it. Yeah. All right. A, planting a brightly colored exploding conch shell in Castro's favorite scuba diving spot.
Starting point is 00:34:18 I'm already in. B, giving Fidel Castro a wetsuit lined with deadly toxins. C, attempting to feed Fidel Castro a wetsuit lined with deadly toxins, C, attempting to feed Fidel Castro a poisoned milkshake, or D, putting explosives inside a dove meant to pose on Castro's shoulder during a speech. Three of these are real. My milkshake
Starting point is 00:34:36 brings all the boys to you. And they're like, you're a corrupt despot, and I'm like, you better get in line. My milkshake brings democracy to Cuba. My milkshake brings the citizens to the food lines. And they're like, can I have some grain? And we're like, we're out of grain. But we have this milkshake still.
Starting point is 00:34:55 Oh, man. I'm going to say B. How sure are we that these are not just more things Hunter Thompson did from last week? Or Pee Wee Herman on a bad day. Oh, you know, Pee Wee Herman when fucking destabilizing governments via nautical espionage. The idea of like,
Starting point is 00:35:09 you know what we're going to do? We're going to put a bomb... Today's secret word is sabotage! Just the idea of like, you know what we're going to do is we're going to put a bomb in a conch shell
Starting point is 00:35:17 in the bottom of the sea and he's going to swim by it. No, today's secret word is and then a cyanide pill is going to start to bubble. The chair has to fucking just black bag him and drag his corpse to get him out. Which of the following should not have the Benny Hill theme music behind it? I just hear these fucking Keystone Black Ops.
Starting point is 00:35:37 They get stupider. Do you have a guess, Keith? Yeah, I'll say the fucking milkshake. I'm saying B. All right, the fake one is D. Putting explosives inside a dove meant to pose on Castro's shoulder. I wanted that to be true more than I've ever wanted a thing. Oh, just to have his head blow up because of a dove. Yeah, he did pose with doves on his shoulder.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Yeah, the idea of a symbol of peace exploding a man's brain. Oh, I know. That should really be the cover art for this show, just the dove mid-fucking Zapruder film, head blowing off. All right. What's round two? What do we got? All righty.
Starting point is 00:36:07 A, lining Castro's shoes with a chemical meant to make his beard and pubic hair fall out. Holy fuck. What? B, spraying LSD with a crop dusting plane over a radio station where a fellow was doing an interview to cause an on-air freak out. Where who was doing an interview? Castro. Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:23 C, bribe middle schoolers with alcohol to spray paint anti-communist graffiti on the berlin wall or d secretly record jfk having sex while on lsd bro bro they're all good oh man hear him again man I would fuck the shit out of Kennedy on an acid trip. Dude, I mean, yeah, how cool would that be? That would be honestly probably the best. All right, your butthole leads to another dimension. I have seen the error of my ways, and I will... I'm going to cram it in into the left.
Starting point is 00:37:01 She's a brooder. I'm Adley Noah. Shoe chemical to make his beard and pubes fall out lst over the radio station bride middle schools with alcohol to paint anti-communist graffiti on the berlin wall and record jfk having sex one acid i'm gonna say ah it's so hard i'm gonna say the jfk acid one because i feel like that's a little too early for them to be fucking with acid in quite that way and i feel like those other ones are real so i'm gonna say d um well see the reason i thought that okay i just think that it would be kennedy involved because you're obsessed with him
Starting point is 00:37:38 but i do just lately i got a brothers by david talbot excellent they were fucking with acid in weird mind controlling ways a long time ago so i don't think that like part of me agrees with keith but i'm gonna say the berlin wall one just because i'm expecting that double misdirect but all of these are fucking great it is the berlin wall one oh man they did secretly tap jfk's bedroom while he his mistress uh got him to smoke three joints and take acid and apparently it made him feel a lot of some kind of way about peace that's insane fuck it all yeah i mean i think that's why he was one of our uh one of our coolest bro jfk rich dude jfk is actually probably this book is i'm pretty like oh this
Starting point is 00:38:19 dude was just like yeah i don't want everyone to fucking die over here i just want to fuck and party and fix everything. He's bringing peace. He must die. I feel like you can either be good at being the president or good at not cheating on your wife, but not both. Yeah. I think if we learned anything from history, it's that cheating on your wife makes you a genius. I think sex is mostly the vice of the smartest people.
Starting point is 00:38:42 Yeah, that's true. I think it's like sex and alcohol occasionally. There is brain food inside of the pussy. Wait, what? There is brain food inside of the pussy. It was a dumb riff I should not have repeated. I'm so mad at you. No, one more time.
Starting point is 00:38:56 Make it three. Bob Dylan. Points. Okay. You can't do that anymore. I'm doing it. Bob Dylan points okay you can't do that anymore I'm doing it you couldn't even really do it then

You were the fucking machine gunner to my sniper. And I'm the drone. Now you just dance. Just continue. You're the bunker.
Starting point is 00:39:34 You're depleted uranium deposits in the topsoil. Round three, which is the following, is something the CIA did. Release hundreds of friendly golden retrievers with American flag collars into Vietnam to convince natives to cooperate with occupying troops. Aw, they were probably so hungry, so that worked out well for them. They ate those dogs. Poets. Hilarious.
Starting point is 00:39:51 Distributing Osama bin Laden dolls that had faces that peeled off into the devils to Afghani children. C. Dropping gigantic American condoms labeled medium into the USR to convince them that American men were well endowed. Or D. Create a porno starring a lookalike of the president of Indonesia? Okay, so
Starting point is 00:40:09 first of all, that condom one has to have happened. I know it's happened. I don't know if it happened in Russia. I've never believed anything so much. Yeah. What was D? D was create a porno starring a lookalike of the president of Indonesia.
Starting point is 00:40:28 A and B was the Osama dolls. A was the golden retrievers. And C was the condoms. I'm going to say... I'm going to say B, the Osama doll. See, I know for sure they did the condom thing. I don't know if they did it in Russia.
Starting point is 00:40:47 I don't know what our Beef with the Philippines would have been. So I'm going to say D. D, the Indonesia one? Yeah. The fake one is A. They did not release hundreds of friendly golden retrievers into Vietnam. I do like that you said Beef with the Philippines, which is not what Indonesia is. Well, I couldn't remember
Starting point is 00:41:03 what Pacific South Asia weird place we were talking about and that was all right well let's move on with racist tom goss yeah i'm not i'm not gone no i i can't see color on most shapes i'm not racist i'm terrible at running singapore malaysia the philippines are right by each other yeah no look at one i get it yeah the countries look very different bullet running.

Starting point is 00:41:35 A. Shut down access to the 23rd highest mountain in the world for 10 years because they lost a nuclear warhead in an avalanche. B. Trick Raul Castro into sleeping with a transvestite infected with the HIV virus. Holy shit. C. Surgically implanted recording
Starting point is 00:41:51 devices into cats to be released near the Russian embassy. Or D. Hired a young Saddam Hussein to assassinate the then Prime Minister of Iraq. Whoa. Hang on. These motherfuckers are running the show. I know some of these, but can you repeat them real quick?
Starting point is 00:42:08 Shut down access to the 23rd highest mountain in the world for 10 years because they lost a nuclear warhead in an avalanche, railroad Castro transvestite, surgically implanting hearing devices into cats, and hiring Saddam to kill the final prime minister of Iraq. Okay. I'm between two. I want to hear Tom's logic
Starting point is 00:42:26 I mean I don't want to give away the one That I know for sure is real I don't think B can possibly be true It seems a little too far fetched Which one was B? HIV These aren't something they necessarily did It's something they tried to do or planned to do
Starting point is 00:42:41 Even then that feels like the one that's the biggest But then again these are all insane. Well, the government did create AIDS. Yeah. They also did some bad things. I'm going to say C. I'm going to say C, the cat one. I was going to say C as well.
Starting point is 00:42:55 The fake one is B. Son of a bitch. The cat one is real. It got hit by a taxi before it could go inside. It spent so much money on it. It was called Acoustic Kitty.

All fake. Okay. Wait, what was A again? A was gave Kim Jong-il a leaking basketball full of gas.
Starting point is 00:43:59 I feel like I heard about the Hugo Chavez thing, but I could be just imagining that. But I'm going to say all real just to mix it up. You know why I think it's all fake? Because why the fuck would you need the Korean dude to be more paranoid? That's true. Like, hey, that angry man with the nukes. The most paranoid man in the world.
Starting point is 00:44:15 Hey, let's give him gas to make him more paranoid. It could have been pre-nukes. I mean, we don't know. It's like, well, we have a great plan to annoy the Hulk. Yeah, I'm still going to say all real. All right, they are all fake. That's the game, everybody. This was a fun one. That was a fun one.
