                                        They know how to party unlike any other person on earth because they've know they've had the nuclear codes and so they
                                         
                                        They've partied with the aliens at club 51. They've got it. Oh, baby
                                         
                                        Who's all still alive weird for Abe Lincoln when they gave him the nuclear codes, and he's like what the fuck are these for?
                                         
                                        What am I supposed to do with this? You'll find out
                                         
                                        But they told George Washington. Here's the football and he's like what is football does that even mean it's contest
                                         
                                        I don't understand any of the words in this. I'm gonna be honest. I'm confused by the case. It's in is this metal. What the fuck?
                                         
                                        Anyway, metal wasn't in bed. Well, they definitely weren't making briefcases out of it
                                         
    
                                        If metal was invented yet wise he gots with teeth. Thank you. He could have metal chompers like jaws. That's a little
                                         
                                        Presidential trivia. It's from you know what it is at that point Justin metal teeth were unprecedented
                                         
                                        You know what's funny about the president? Hey Justin. What the fuck?
                                         
                                        unprecedented
                                         
                                        Cuz he was a president you didn't have to stop the
                                         
                                        Justin just went right over it. Okay. There's two different kinds of bits in this world
                                         
                                        There's the ones that you drive by and wave at though
                                         
                                        There's the ones where you park and you have a little picnic outside of them, but that was not a picnic joke
                                         
    
                                        That was you didn't even he didn't even huff out it or nothing
                                         
                                        But if I stop and park the car at your joke, yeah, it's gonna make people think that you don't have those all the time
                                         
                                        But with your rapidity, you know what I mean? Yeah

                                        we've had like a group of presidents and
                                         
                                        Most of them are most of them are dead. Yeah, so it's like a stick Lee. Yeah, maybe this is the most dangerous

                                        I think it might be presidents because we've had almost 50 of them and like 45 of them best a long time ago

                                        I'd like to be president someday, but yeah, but my birthday is not that day

                                        anyway

                                        Hi
                                         
                                        My name is Justin McRoy. I'll be doing a
                                         
                                        Please don't say you'll be doing it that makes it sound a little bit perverted if you could use a different
                                         
                                        It makes it sound like you're gonna try and have sex. I'll be I'll be humping this question
                                         
    
                                        That's a little bit worse, but not so I work at a fancy legal office and I have to commute by bus
                                         
                                        Just say Boston legal we get it. We know where you work with Denny Crane
                                         
                                        Why do I know that?
                                         
                                        There's so much shit you don't know Travis
                                         
                                        Because the other day I was talking about how Boston legal and Boston public are in the same Boston verse
                                         
                                        But Boston common is not and that makes you really mad. Sorry. Go on
                                         
                                        I
                                         
                                        Fairly new and not used to the eight to five grind yet
                                         
    
                                        So I find myself staying up far too late to be waking up at 645 every day
                                         
                                        Mm-hmm, and then getting to work exhausted now
                                         
                                        I haven't finished this question, but so far there's a pretty good. Yeah answer for this
                                         
                                        Yeah, I have an hour lunch break and really want to take a nap
                                         
                                        Yes, would it be inappropriate to stack boxes in my cubicle to hide in and get some sleep?
                                         
                                        I worry that someone might see me in there, but I'm just so tired right now
                                         
                                        I decay if I can make it through the day
                                         
                                        Please help us from pooped in Portland now. Listen as Justin pointed out
                                         
    
                                        Obviously, obviously we could say go to bed earlier, but that's not one like that's not fun and also like
                                         
                                        When you read when you reach a certain age
                                         
                                        No amount of sleep is enough to get you through the day, right? Yeah
                                         
                                        Like you could sleep you could go to sleep right after you got up and you'd be tired
                                         
                                        And it's also completely arbitrary because you'll also have days where you sleep for five hours and you wake up and you feel
                                         
                                        Incredible and then you'll have days where you sleep nine hours and you feel like some sort of corpse person
                                         
                                        Because the weird thing is your body has these weird cycles, but you don't fucking know when they are and you're in no control of it
                                         
                                        And it's like oh you woke up in the middle one. I'm like, okay. Well, who's fault is that?
                                         
    
                                        This is why this is why so many people have endorsed polyphasic sleep. Yeah, where you'll chunk it
                                         
                                        You get some 90 minutes polyphasic sleep is my favorite thing to talk about and never do
                                         
                                        Yep, so you do like sleep for 90 minutes and then you're up. Who's that creep around the house at 430?
                                         
                                        Well, it's Justin. Who's that taking a nap at 11 30 during the morning meeting. That's Justin
                                         
                                        That's 90 minutes and he's up for a while polyphasic sleep now. I'm of two minds in the actual question here
                                         
                                        I want you guys to gut check where you're at. I don't think there's anything wrong with taking a nap on your lunch break
                                         
                                        That's your time. I think the problem is location location location, right? Yeah, right?
                                         
                                        I think you need to find within any office or warehouse or I don't care where it is
                                         
    
                                        There is a location that somebody knows about
                                         
                                        That's like the comfy spot where everyone sneaks away to nap. Well, I wouldn't want to nap
                                         
                                        I wouldn't want to nap in the spot where everyone goes to nap, you know, like I that's not necessarily something
                                         
                                        I want to share with my peers. That's fair. I
                                         
                                        At the same time, I feel like if somebody is ever like, you know
                                         
                                        Reorganizing the office and they move a file cabinet and then there's like a fucking
                                         
                                        Shawshank redemption hole in the wall with like some some pillows and
                                         
                                        Newspapers in there you they would that is no good man. If somebody's no good now
                                         
    
                                        You're not gonna nest your Bruno nests has been discovered. You can't stay in there. No nest. Yeah
                                         
                                        It's inappropriate. I but I think if you just go to sleep on your fucking desk head down
                                         
                                        And if anybody walks in and it's like, hey, wake up leave that job. Oh, you know what we haven't done this in a while
                                         
                                        What would a sign help? Oh
                                         
                                        Oh
                                         
                                        Seeping seeping because that's the problem right they come by they see you laying down
                                         
                                        They're like, oh shirking their duties
                                         
                                        But if you have a sign that's like this is my lunch break. This is how I choose to use it Derek
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, right like what are they gonna do? Yeah, I ate so fast Derek and I have to sleep
                                         
                                        I eat while I type out my reports so that I can have a snooze arena and it says all of this
                                         
                                        There's like eight pieces. It's a daisy wheel printer
                                         
                                        Just like yeah, all lined up and Derek's still reading it by the time you wake up that was my shit
                                         
                                        I would eat lunch while I had like library duty during like third period in middle school
                                         
                                        And then when lunchtime came around I could keep hanging out in the library. Yeah, that's a sad story
                                         
                                        Anyway, hey, do you guys want to approach the wizard?

                                        Back off. I got it for minecraft

                                        I don't I don't really
                                         
                                        Wasn't made of cubes in green. I wouldn't do that. You're exploding janner. I hate that noise. He's making
                                         
                                        I'm not doing it
                                         
                                        Make a crayon eraser for a pencil
                                         
                                        This one if you kill the janitor you get feathers and it's worth it. That is worth it and creepers drop down powder
                                         
    
                                        Not feathered, but it's okay. What are you? What create a retracting pen with a spring
                                         
                                        Isn't that why that's an inventive? Yeah, you get those wonderful toys
                                         
                                        That's a great prank because your friend will then be like, hey, your pen's broken and you'll be like, I know I broke it
                                         
                                        So confuse your teacher. This is a step two pulling pranks in the classroom have mechanical pencils. Let's just do it. Yeah
                                         
                                        Yeah, fuck it. Oh, no, let's rid the bandage off. Why did someone invent a pencil led destroyer because that's all they are
                                         
                                        They don't write they just break and then you put more out they break again. They made that shit so thin
                                         
                                        It's so pointless
                                         
                                        It is good for pretending like you're giving yourself like, I don't know an injection or something. Yeah
                                         
    
                                        That's a good prank, but you got to make sure you push the stopper down or it fucking hurts
                                         
                                        We're getting into the good stuff now confuse your teacher by changing their wallpaper to a screenshot
                                         
                                        So that when they try to click the icons, it doesn't work, but I'm sorry if you get caught doing anything on your teacher's
                                         
                                        Laptop. Oh, yeah, yeah going to your jigger going down. You're done. You're going downtown
                                         
                                        Ink your sleeping friend if they fall asleep in the library or class dip their fingers in an ink pad or makeup
                                         
                                        Uh, you can also use a highlighter then tickle their nose with a feather or tissue when they go to scratch their nose
                                         
                                        They'll get ink on their face
                                         
                                        When I just put ink on their face if you want to help them get it off try a little hand sanitizer
                                         
    
                                        That's a great point travis as long as you're
                                         
                                        You're cut out the middleman right of the finger and just put ink on your friend's fucking face
                                         
                                        Unless you're trying to convince that they got fingerprinted while they were asleep
                                         
                                        That's that would work is like, oh man, you've been gone for so long
                                         
                                        They took you downtown and then like in matrix. They just dropped you back off
                                         
                                        And I think that there's some kind of mechanical worm in your tummy. We gotta get it out
                                         
                                        Yeah, um use a coffee cup to spill water on your teacher. That's that one's gonna go for great
                                         
                                        That is good. There's a description here of how to create a prank cup
                                         
    
                                        using cling wrap several layers of cling wrap and a rubber band and the more I read it the more
                                         
                                        um
                                         
                                        My brain
                                         
                                        Rebels against itself. Yeah, because it's a it's a feat of engineering that I do not think is possible. But I what do they suggest
                                         
                                        What I'm not going to read it. That's what I'm saying is why no, we don't want to endorse it
                                         
                                        Can I just say a lot of these sound like something
                                         
                                        Like middle school travis would do not because he was a creative prank genius, but because he had impulse control issues
                                         
                                        Um, not so much like pranks, but just more like, oh, why did you do that? I don't I don't know
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, I don't think spilling water on your teacher is a great prank
                                         
                                        But I do love the little tip they've added at the end here
                                         
                                        Which is to keep your teacher in a good mood after pulling this prank have a towel and a real cup of coffee on hand for afterwards
                                         
                                        Sorry, Dolores. Here you go. Sorry here try yourself up. You look fucking ridiculous. I have access to coffee. So anyway, take this
                                         
                                        You take it two creams much sugar. Am I right? Yeah, how about a back row?
                                         
                                        Who's going to take a cup from you ever again when they see you do this when they see this
                                         
                                        This in feet of engineering that you have used to soak your teacher
                                         
                                        Who's going to be like just done an incredible prank you have undermined
                                         
    
                                        Any trust that teacher had for you for the rest of the year
                                         
                                        You're gonna the next parent teacher conference your teacher's gonna be like, listen, they're getting straight A's because of course rule number one
                                         
                                        Keep your grades up. Bye

                                        Cover your teacher's desk in candy
                                         
                                        This prank will actually make your teacher smile
                                         
    
                                        You can't even use candy to make a picture or spell out something for your teacher. Fuck you, mr. Dennis

                                        I apologize trigonometry just does it for me
                                         
                                        I know how big that triangle is and I guess mine gets my noodle going
                                         
                                        Put balloons everywhere

                                        All right, let's shake it off. Let's get back in the jimmy's out
                                         
                                        Again, listen, we've had a lot of wiggles now it's time to focus up
                                         
                                        We're back into it and it's time to deliver the goods
                                         
    
                                        Justin take it. Don't think about it. Just go take the rock. Okay
                                         
                                        A lot of people use Squarespace these days and they want to use it to make a great website. I
                                         
                                        personally Justin McElroy
                                         
                                        Have been using Squarespace for the past couple weeks to build a
                                         
                                        website for my wife Sydney
                                         
                                        Who is running for the house of delegates here in west virginia?
                                         
                                        And I built her website with the help of a trusted friend mainly to tell me if the things
                                         
                                        looked bad
                                         
    
                                        But I've been he built it and I've been editing editing it. Well now trust it. I'm sorry, but the story keeps changing
                                         
                                        Yes, I feel like there is a shifting the point is I could have done it
                                         
                                        So that's where I got myself into trouble is once I started fooling around with it. I should have been intimidated
                                         
                                        It's easy to do. You can adjust the things you make a great look at website
                                         
                                        So just be clear the fault is not with Squarespace. It is what just done
                                         
                                        And in our stars, yes, and I've built Squarespace websites before
                                         
                                        I guess I just had the yips because I wanted it to be really good
                                         
                                        Yeah, I mean I wanted to look great, but I should have trusted that Squarespace templates would make everything look fantastic
                                         
    
                                        That is what they do
                                         
                                        So I asked Michael from from uh drunks of dragons like help me
                                         
                                        Help me to build it. Yeah, and he did you need a moment. I could have done it on my own, but I appreciate
                                         
                                        Do you understand? Yeah, sure. Sure. Sure. Like you could have done it, but you got scared
                                         
                                        Yeah, don't get me got scared. Don't get me wrong in the ad copy. It does want us to talk about how easy it is
                                         
                                        Isn't that you could do it yourself?
                                         
                                        I could have I should have trusted that is what I'm saying, but at the same time I really appreciate Michael's help
                                         
                                        Yeah, so just be clear. They offered 24 seven support, but not 24 seven emotional support
                                         
    
                                        Thank you, which is what Justin needed. They don't tell you that the magic was inside you
                                         
                                        Right, so Justin could have used Squarespace, but he second-guessed himself and that's why he's here now to tell you don't make his mistakes
                                         
                                        Right, you be better than Justin use Squarespace yourself, right?

                                        Hey, I want to talk about door dash. Yes
                                         
                                        Are you afraid?
                                         
                                        Like Justin is of doing the wrong thing then let door dash do it for you
                                         
                                        I mean from now on all of my ad reads are going to be about Justin being afraid
                                         
                                        Because I think that fears a powerful motivational tool, but I don't want to make it about our listeners being afraid
                                         
                                        That's so many use it about Justin
                                         
    
                                        Sometimes Justin's afraid that he'll forget things at the store
                                         
                                        And then he's like, what am I going to do now?
                                         
                                        Oh, whatever one finds out that I forgot the snacks and the drinks and the household essentials
                                         
                                        Oh god, they're all going to be so mad at me. Well, good news, Justin
                                         
                                        You can use door dash and they can have household essentials drinks and snacks delivered in as little as 30 minutes right to your door
                                         
                                        And Justin don't be afraid about not being able to connect with the restaurants you love door dash
                                         
                                        They can connect you with the restaurants you love. So fear no more Justin and Justin
                                         
                                        Justin
                                         
    
                                        No fear right live free die hard
                                         
                                        Now you can get the grocery essentials you need with door dash too like drinks snacks household items
                                         
                                        Everything you need not to be afraid like a night light or a comfy blanket
                                         
                                        Or if you need some like relaxing tea and like a cozy mystery that doesn't have any blood or violence in
                                         
                                        It good news doesn't knife
                                         
                                        No
                                         
                                        Well, is that for just in the wheeled or the door dash deliverer to bring?
                                         
                                        Uh, I don't know that we should say that door dash deliverers bring a huge knife to your door when they come to drop off
                                         
    
                                        Well, if they do they won't wield it. They won't have it in their hand. Yeah, I mean that would be ridiculous
                                         
                                        Yeah, would it be in a bag of sorts?
                                         
                                        Um, so uh for a limited time our listeners can get 25 off and zero delivery fees on their first order of $15 or more

                                        Doesn't it feel a little targeted? I mean it could be any judge. It could be Justin Thoreau
                                         
                                        They could be tying that Justin Thoreau. Yeah, so don't worry about it, man
                                         
                                        Hi, I'm Janet Varney and just like you I survived high school
                                         
                                        And we're not alone on my podcast the jv club
                                         
                                        I invite some of my friends to share the highs and lows of their teen years
                                         
                                        Like moments with aisha tyler, but when you're a kid the six are just pretty low go to school

                                        I watched television probably every waking hour during that time and I was

                                        Our magic put a storm in the sky that has rendered the surface of our planet uninhabitable
                                         
    
                                        But beneath the surface. Well, that's another story entirely
                                         
                                        In a city built leagues below the apocalypse survivors of the storm forged paths through a strange new world
                                         
                                        Some seek salvation for their homeland above
                                         
                                        Others seek to chart the vast undersea expanse outside the city's walls
                                         
                                        And others still seek

                                        Is the prime minister Justin Thoreau is an actor who has been in many wonderful things. Nobody nobody at home caught that
                                         
                                        Traff
                                         
                                        Oh
                                         
                                        Several
                                         
                                        Several several people
                                         
    
                                        Let's say a couple things one thing is
                                         
                                        It passes out comment from the two of you so you can cross it. Yeah. Yeah, if you hadn't realized the error you instantly would have
                                         
                                        I mean that would have been the rest of the episode. Yeah, absolutely. Jennifer Aniston's
                                         
                                        ex-husband
                                         
                                        A current husband ex-partner. Definitely. Well, I think she wants to get back together with Brad Pitt last I read
                                         
                                        I don't want to talk about this anymore. Okay, either
                                         
                                        There's some parks and rec. Oh, yeah, you're so good. Good turn on parks and rec a good turn
                                         
                                        They had it's not wild though. They had Kamala Harris. So it's like not wild. It's not wild
                                         
    
                                        It's just that they're two individual human beings, right? Yeah. No, I know man. I know
                                         
                                        I get confused with Justin McRoyle if they had Richard Harris on and you were like they had the vice president
                                         
                                        of the country on
                                         
                                        It's just a half their name is a different name
                                         
                                        It's a different name of Kamala. Thoreau and Trudeau is very simple. I mean, yeah, you could rhyme it in a poem. Absolutely
                                         
                                        Hey, let's do let's do another question. Maybe
                                         
                                        Yeah, sure
                                         
                                        Travis, I cannot believe you put this next one in. What? I love listening to your show. However, sometimes you fellows use large
                                         
    
                                        Are unique words that I have to look up because I don't know the meaning irony
                                         
                                        I always tell myself I'm going to remember those cool words and use them when I can. However
                                         
                                        Um, I after I close my dictionary, I almost immediately forget those words and then fail to use them
                                         
                                        Brothers, how can I get a cool vocabulary like you? Yeah, um, that's from vocabulary vexed in Vermont
                                         
                                        Yeah, sometimes, you know, you you know, we're trying to do the show and you feel that tracheolence
                                         
                                        And you're like, oh, I don't remember and those words can be such a femora
                                         
                                        You can't actually do that twice per episode. It's illegal. Yeah. Yeah, I don't want to be personic
                                         
                                        You guys are right. I mean
                                         
    
                                        What I my recommendation would be to get a job where you have to talk about
                                         
                                        everything
                                         
                                        All the time
                                         
                                        Yeah
                                         
                                        And then eventually you get you start to hate the way that you say it and you think there must be a new way of saying these things
                                         
                                        Because I hate the way I do it. Yeah, and that's so you inspire yourself to get some some new vocabulary
                                         
                                        Um, you know, you look for opportunities to use in your day-to-day life
                                         
                                        You don't even have to know what it means. That's the beauty of it. If you say it with confidence
                                         
    
                                        We live in an ever-shifting
                                         
                                        Linguist society now
                                         
                                        And so sometimes you can just say a word with confidence and someone could be like, I don't think it means that
                                         
                                        You're like, um, it does now actually because somebody used it on tiktok and they can't disprove that. It's amazing
                                         
                                        Oh to be alive in the world today. Oh
                                         
                                        Nothing means anything anywhere
                                         
                                        You should change your life to use the word
                                         
                                        So like if you learn a if you learn a new word like
                                         
    
                                        Can't even think of any word juice think of any word pal. Come on. You can do it. I used so many early in the episode
                                         
                                        Come on
                                         
                                        Verisimilitude
                                         
                                        From downtown
                                         
                                        I thought it was versus similitude
                                         
                                        Verisimilitude. No, that's when you fight militude
                                         
                                        There
                                         
                                        Then you should do things that where verisimilitude would be part of the
                                         
    
                                        You know, like you should
                                         
                                        I know it because richard donner used it when he was talking about the superman movie
                                         
                                        So like if you're making a really hero, he's verisimilitude like truth to be like
                                         
                                        I wanted to seek out verisimilitude in the superman movies a movie about a man who flies backward around the planet
                                         
                                        um
                                         
                                        It's just it's it's here travis. Okay. You're gonna feel like a real horses pituit when I send you my this is my twitter banner
                                         
                                        Okay
                                         
                                        I'm not on i'm never on twitter since lack. Okay. Oh, okay
                                         
    
                                        Oh, I see. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's superman the holding a banner. It says verisimilitude. Yeah, okay, great
                                         
                                        It's so i'm saying like find a time in a place in the world where that concept would be important and shift your life to meet your vocabulary
                                         
                                        You know what I mean?
                                         
                                        Yeah, but sometimes also big words are like fucking overrated because like there's a word polkratutinous means like very beautiful
                                         
                                        I'm like beauty and shit. That's an ugly sounding word. It's a gross word
                                         
                                        Sounds super gross. Just say bodacious way better
                                         
                                        Way better. I think we could you're not gonna say like check out that polkratutinous ass
                                         
                                        Right, you're not gonna say that but I also wouldn't say check out that bodacious. Who would I be saying that to you wouldn't say

                                        I was saying you would say it to have a bonding moment with your son about a bodacious ass
                                         
                                        Yeah, like we saw we saw a baby target. Yeah, and you want to talk about that bodacious ass

                                        Yes
                                         
    
                                        What a munch squad
                                         
                                        Okay
                                         
                                        Little Caesars
                                         
                                        Not batman related
                                         
                                        Is a pizza restaurant where you can get things at a drive-thru
                                         
                                        And you drive up and you say give me a pizza, please
                                         
                                        Can I also just say real quick little caesars a great example of a restaurant where I have no idea where we're at culturally as to
                                         
                                        Have they turned to their shit around? Is it still viewed?
                                         
    
                                        It was the cheap pizza because you get to right and that's what we had at church all the time
                                         
                                        It was all I fucking love little caesars, but have they turned it around? I'll see because dominoes this is interesting
                                         
                                        See that was my my supposition right when I would get pizza hut or
                                         
                                        Dominoes I would think oh, I'm really treating myself now because I'm naughty or god forbid like a backyard pizza
                                         
                                        Oh my god, who has the money?
                                         
                                        Who's got the money in this economy?
                                         
                                        I thought let the common folk have
                                         
                                        Little caesars, but then I tried it recently. It's been a debt. Maybe a decade
                                         
    
                                        Great yeah great quality food. I really enjoy one of the best sausages in the game, frankly
                                         
                                        One of a great sausage. Oh, yeah, not like you're gonna get over at monnie's pizza. No, no, no you get that
                                         
                                        That kind of crumbled. No, no, no, that's the
                                         
                                        Circle into squares. Love it. Oh, come on. Oh forget about it. You throw some barbecue chips on there
                                         
                                        You're
                                         
                                        Narrowcasting to the people on this show. Yeah to each other
                                         
                                        Sometimes I forget there's other people listening. Yeah, yeah little caesars unveils a new superhero offering
                                         
                                        The batman it is batman
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, that's my my that's why you did the batman theme. Yeah, but the batman calzoni
                                         
                                        I saw a sign for this at the little caesars across from fantastic sands
                                         
                                        Over near the car. Yeah, I know that one and I was like I had to I literally stopped my car to take a picture with my phone
                                         
                                        Because I was like what it just said
                                         
                                        Batman calzoni 799. Now, can I just say
                                         
                                        That one does not look like a calzone two. It's not a calzone. You idiot. It's calzoni
                                         
                                        It looks more like moth man than batman
                                         
                                        Okay, well like maybe next time you make a half calzone half pizza. You'll make it look more like batman
                                         
    
                                        I'm just saying that is not the shape
                                         
                                        Yeah, either the batman or his symbol. No, that looks like the bat symbol
                                         
                                        It does not look like the bat symbol the bat symbol is much more oblong
                                         
                                        This is a pizza that someone fucked up. This is okay. So I can't just talk about it. Yeah, sure
                                         
                                        It's the batman calzoni
                                         
                                        The bat signal has been spotted in detroit, but not the way you'd expect
                                         
                                        Um, this is from mlive.com, which is a michigan news source. I think
                                         
                                        The bat signal has been spotted in detroit, but not in the way you'd expect
                                         
    
                                        Comes courtesy of little caesars, which unveiled a super new food item on monday introducing
                                         
                                        the batman calzoni
                                         
                                        It's a bat shape product. It's not one second
                                         
                                        The bat shape product is a buttery tasting calzone crust filled with garlic white sauce cheese and
                                         
                                        julienne pepperoni
                                         
                                        Combined with a pepperoni pizza and served with a side of crazy sauce
                                         
                                        I'm staring at this and the picture you have sent us just them
                                         
                                        The pepperoni are arranged in such a way that it feels like a magic eye poster
                                         
    
                                        And I'm like
                                         
                                        Transfixed by it and I'm trying to find like it, but they're perfect. They are geometrically sort of a lot
                                         
                                        Yeah, I think they knew they were going to take a picture of this one. So they made it look good
                                         
                                        Okay, because it's also really shiny and red
                                         
                                        It's $7.99
                                         
                                        And it says it's going to be available for a limited time starting on monday
                                         
                                        Now normally that would stress me out
                                         
                                        But in this case, I think that's probably good because I would hate to go into little caesars four years from now
                                         
    
                                        And I'm like, why do you guys have

                                        Will be released on march 4th. What's happening with this crime wave? There's a serial killer named the riddler
                                         
                                        Did we name him that or did he name himself unclear?
                                         
                                        Do you guys think if you get killed by the rid if you live in Gotham city?
                                         
                                        Yeah, and then you're there's like an explosion and you're like, oh, shit
                                         
                                        It's a batman level crime that's happening and then the riddler comes out and kills you you're like
                                         
                                        Fucking fuck, but the riddles guy is killing me couldn't even be like the penguin or somebody
                                         
                                        That's gotta be a really stressful
                                         
                                        thing about
                                         
    
                                        Being batman is when you are fighting the riddler. You're like, please don't let me die fighting. Yeah, I can't be like this, right?
                                         
                                        Please kill batman who finally killed batman who got him a bane? Oh, okay
                                         
                                        That actually makes sense. I thought you were gonna say the riddler and I was gonna be like, what do you do riddling?
                                         
                                        To death. Yeah, he riddled in with bullets and he laughed the whole time, but then we were like, that's not

                                        I'm just glad that we're finally finally bringing the batman to the big screen
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, let his story be told. How did he get where he is?
                                         
                                        What's his whole deal? Does he have some sort of butler man who helps him? I don't know these things
                                         
                                        Are his parents cool? Are they cool? What do they do?
                                         
                                        Right, does he connect with other human beings in an easy way?
                                         
                                        Right, is he cool in social situations? Is he at all haunted by some sort of dark past? I don't know
                                         
                                        What's his financials like? Yeah, where's he at? Is he you're barely getting behind?
                                         
                                        Finding this free time. He's gonna fight some villains, but also gotta pay the bills
                                         
                                        I don't know. I don't know now it is worth noting that um
                                         
    
                                        We're having a lot of fun here, but of course any permutation of batman that comes up like
                                         
                                        Maybe in like podcasts or whatever is like is great. We're just more batman more batman stories the better out there

                                        But here's the thing audio batman
                                         
                                        That's where it's at man. That's what let me picture my own batman
                                         
                                        And he's got oh, he's got long curly blonde hair. Hey guys. What's your perfect batman? This calzoni does look like a
                                         
                                        menstrual pad though, and I don't know
                                         
                                        What they were thinking when they did it
                                         
    
                                        It's not wings
                                         
                                        It's I saw guys. I think I've can I tell you something I had had a pause earlier
                                         
                                        I'm sure Rachel edited it out, but I had to pause earlier because I had a wave of nausea
                                         
                                        And I think that was caused by the incredible hunger that I feel looking at this incredible calzoni
                                         
                                        This makes you hungry. I want nothing more than to eat that. I would ravish. I find can I tell you speakable?
                                         
                                        I find the symmetry of the pepperoni very off-putting
                                         
                                        Why because I know it's fantastic. I know a human being touch this a lot
                                         
                                        Yeah, that's a good point. This isn't somebody threw down a scattering of pepperonis
                                         
    
                                        This is this this this took somebody several minutes
                                         
                                        A human being individually touched each of these ronies. Yeah
                                         
                                        What on earth why on earth do you assume that the calzoni that you would buy at the Little Caesars for $7.99
                                         
                                        available without pre-order monday through friday from 4 to 8 p.m
                                         
                                        What on earth makes you think it would look anything like this?
                                         
                                        No, I know that Justin, but I can believe that that is a naturally occurring batman calzoni
                                         
                                        Or I look at this and I say this is a man made
                                         
                                        This is a man god. I'm so hungry for this calzoni. I think that means it's time to stop the show

                                        Right, right, but when will you have achieved enough twitch success that it doesn't become when I'm up there?
                                         
                                        Or with some of the greats like twitch johnson and twitch twitch jankins and twitch johnson

                                        I've been effectively lying.
                                         
                                        This whole time.
                                         
                                        Does your wife Rachel know?
                                         
                                        She's the one that put me up to it.
                                         
                                        Did he get quieter?
                                         
                                        That was a lesson.
                                         
    
                                        I wasn't as big as the other ones.
