Starting point is 00:00:00 The McElroy brothers are not experts and their advice should never be followed. Travis insists he's a sexpert but if there's a degree on his wall I haven't seen it. Also this show isn't for kids which I mention only so the babies out there will know how cool they are for listening. What's up you cool baby? One, two, three, four! It's the start of something beautiful A small acquaintance has blossomed It's ripened into a precious friendship
Starting point is 00:00:33 I could've never seen what was coming for me Hangs at the skate park, hangs by the beach My life, it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like it feels like It's better, it's better with two.

Good morning, Trap Nation. I'm your sweet baby brother, Griffin McElroy. I am disappointed in us brothers. Why? Okay. I am too, just like constantly.
Starting point is 00:01:33 Oh, okay. Just to the quality of our output. Yeah, we're now. Content of our character. Well, we've been traveling and we did the tours and we've been so focused on comedy that we've let slide our core competency. Okay. Our promise to the listeners, sports coverage.
Starting point is 00:01:48 Yeah, sports coverage. Do you guys know how mad it makes me that I was on vacation during the week that a man was disqualified? Yes, Justin, this is all I wanna talk about. But we can't, Trav. What? This is what I wanna talk about.
Starting point is 00:02:08 I have no idea what you're talking about. So, yeah, you do. Griffin the French pole vaulter. Oh, he's part of a decathlon. His privacy got caught on the bar. His privacy got caught on the thing. I don't wanna talk about this, that stinks. But you can't, but you, I know,
Starting point is 00:02:24 because everybody did already last week. And it would have been Primo. The way we would have done it, I think it would have been tasteful. So good. I think it's in bad taste to comment on it now. And I don't think it's okay to comment on it now. And we shan't, we shan't.
Starting point is 00:02:39 But back then, please know we would have nailed it. We would have done it with discretion. Nuff said. I wanna talk about, so purportedly, and this started back, I believe, with the Tokyo games. They started using these cardboard beds. Yeah. And everybody was like, they're anti-fuck beds.
Starting point is 00:02:59 This is gonna make it hard because they're flimsy, they're gonna fall apart. Why would they, oh, just from, okay. Oh Griffin, the Olympic Village is a bockin' hall. No, no, no, I get that. I guess I'm just wondering about what happens in a sex act that the bed is just like, nope. That it wouldn't, like, I imagine if I'm an Olympic athlete,
Starting point is 00:03:20 I just spent the whole day throwing spears around. When I- You think you're having the laziest sex of your life? I think I'm not. I think I'm just, I think I slumped down in bed, like time to kick. My body is the most tired a human being's body can be. Time for bed, whomp, clump.
Starting point is 00:03:36 And it's like, I didn't even fuck. Then you have to go to the RA and be like, my bed broke. And you'd be like, who, who was it? Was it that Norwegian swimmer? And it was like, nah, man, I was it? Was it that Norwegian swimmer? And he's like, nah man, I just sat down on it. Thank you, Olympics.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Listen, there's no way it's about them not having sex on it. I'm tired of this rumor going around. It doesn't make any sense. For starters, I don't know many people who when they're super duper duper duper excited about humping, are put off because there's not a bed nearby. That's number one.
Starting point is 00:04:11 And I certainly don't think any of them are fucking Olympians, my friend. If anything, I bet Olympians feel weird not making it as physically exertive as possible. Like, we're gonna hang from a doorframe while we, like we're just holding on to everything, doing backflips while we do that. I'm a guy that professionally shoots guns and skis.
Starting point is 00:04:32 I'll figure it out. What's great is so that rumor started going around and the Olympics had to come out and be like, we didn't do that. No, it's part of a recycling initiative. We can't stop them from having sex. That's right, you can't. Like they give them twin size mattresses.
Starting point is 00:04:48 These people, some of them giants, right? They're like, like, fucking Michael Phelps has the wingspan of a great condor, right? And they're putting him in a twin size mattress. He's still, I guarantee, having fun. I mean, not now, but. I don't think Michael Phelps is sleeping at the Olympic Village. That would be wild. That would be so boggles.
Starting point is 00:05:09 That would be like full on like, dude, going back to his high school, like. Yeah. He has his pod in the bay that he climbs into with the, and he snuggles up with a big octopus. Yeah, like God intended. Like God intended him to do. I was thinking about how you decide
Starting point is 00:05:27 to become a synchronized diver. You dive one time and you're like, something's missing. I'm alone, I feel so lonely. It's like another half of me. Or I think it's more like a bowling lane thing, right? Where it just happens to be the two of you step up at the same time, do it, and you're like,
Starting point is 00:05:48 did you just do that? Cause I did that. Are we in the drift? And I think now you'll have to become- Every, they won't say this out loud, but I will. The every synchronized Olympic diver is married to the other one. They're all married. Is that true?
Starting point is 00:06:05 They are all married couples because you can't not fall in love deeply, get married doing what they do day in, day out. I have to imagine like 10 hours a day, these people are diving in perfect synchronicity, their hearts and minds are connected in a very tangible and visceral way. Then they get married.
Starting point is 00:06:24 Oh, I thought you meant they get married first. Like, all right, you two, married. Now go practice. I think the problem that you're having, Griff, is you're thinking of marriage and that sort of love as the deepest expression of love. So thereby, the diving would be a conduit to that. What I'm saying is the diving is actually a deeper,
Starting point is 00:06:45 more intimate connection than your marriage bed, is what I'm suggesting. That is interesting. That your swimming partner should be jealous of your, like, you're spending too much time at home with your wife because you're married to the dive. Every swim, every dive, synchronized diving team used to be married.
Starting point is 00:07:08 And now they're, but they're divorced to each other now because they found this deeper- They're divorced to each other? They're divorced from each other, but now they keep it real. They did a divorce. They did a divorce to one another. Okay, can I suggest that if,
Starting point is 00:07:21 that is a really great shorthand, we don't even ever have to say, but it was amicable, ever again. You're either divorced from someone, or divorced to them. Yeah, I like that. I'm divorced to Kyle, actually. Yeah, oh, Kyle? Yeah, I'm divorced to him.
Starting point is 00:07:38 I'm divorced to him, we're great friends. Divorced together sounds like the name of a ABC sitcom that would run for nine episodes before getting candid. Or nine years. Or nine years, one of those things. Let me also offer this, if you're separated, you're engaged to be divorced.
Starting point is 00:07:56 That's interesting. Yeah. I like, anyway. You're un-gaged, you're un-gaged. You're un-gaged. It's pretty cool. And I also, this is not related to the Olympics, but can we start from now on,
Starting point is 00:08:07 if you're telling a story and you're telling a story about your partner back when they were like your girlfriend or boyfriend or whatever, can you just say like proto-wife, my proto-husband, my proto-wife? I don't think that's okay. I think knowing that they have the option
Starting point is 00:08:20 to really cut and run and- No, no, no, I'm saying, I don't like having to say like, well, my girlfriend at the time, now my wife, she was my girlfriend, now I'm his. My wife, she was my girlfriend at the time. Yeah, if only there was a sort of neutral term that wasn't necessarily.
Starting point is 00:08:36 His partner, isn't it? Yeah. Or a name. Or a name. Well, if you just say the name Justin, you don't get to do a Borat voice. That's true. But you better not next time.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Such a good point. Last year, or the last Winter Olympics, they put condoms in a really squeaky loud machine, if I remember correctly. You had to go. I like that. They put the condoms in a vending machine in the middle of the food hall or whatever
Starting point is 00:09:01 they had to go get. But there was a minion in the vending machine too. And he would be like, condom alert! And everyone would know that you- Wrap up your banana. But I heard that that- They're all minions, dude.
Starting point is 00:09:12 I heard that that minion got so exhausted from handing out condoms that he died in the machine. And his skeleton is, you know how they don't take down any of the Olympic buildings? His skeleton's still in there. He was just, by day two he was like, another condom, okay, hold on, guys, form a line. So many of you need condoms right now.
Starting point is 00:09:28 I heard in some Nordic countries, they put babies in cardboard boxes instead of like big cribs, and everyone like loves it. Everyone's like, better, but. They're wild for Earth. And it's good for Earth, and it's good for the baby. Maybe that's good. What is it, oh, is this the cardboard beds?
Starting point is 00:09:43 Where are you coming from? Because last, I was referencing Minion in, Minion in Vending Machine is like a baby in a box in a Nordic country. No, no, I mean, either, I guess that metaphor goes both ways. Let's do a question. This first question I really like.
Starting point is 00:09:59 And it comes with a visual picture, which we don't often get to do. A visual picture, you said? Yeah, listen, I've got a lot on my mind. I work at a small local history museum. I found the cutest duckling teacup and saucer in our collection. Museums only display like 1% of their collections,
Starting point is 00:10:15 and we're trying to declutter anyway. They don't need the cup, but I do. How should I ask for the cup, or should I play at a heist instead? For reference, here is a photo of the cup. That is from Dabbling Duckling Dreamer. And I mean, it's adorable. It's like a small teacup and the ducks look like so fluffy.
Starting point is 00:10:35 You could just eat them. And one of them is coming out of a shell and another one's on a lily pad. I mean, it's adorable. It's adorable. There needs to be an Indiana Jones who's the opposite. I'm gonna call him Illinois James, needs to go into museums and be like, this doesn't,
Starting point is 00:10:57 this does not belong in this museum. And him and Indy can go back and forth about it for a while. In fact, I want Illinois James to travel around with Indiana Jones as he goes into this crypt and he's like, oh, look at that tablet, it belongs to the museum. And Illinois James be like, look all around, man, there's tablets all over this fucking place.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Well, maybe Illinois James is sitting there like, actually, this is a very important artifact for the people who live here. Yeah, yeah. So perhaps it belongs right where it is, is where Blimey, I mean mean this person was buried with this. Indy's defense, it was bulletproof at the time, which was, yeah, I'm stealing your important
Starting point is 00:11:32 cultural artifact, but do you want the Nazis to have it? Because that's the other option. I don't know if you know this about these sacred tablets that are fundamental to the history of your culture, but if you touch them right, go shoot out and make you immortal. Do you want the Nazis to have that one? It does work best when he's stealing from people
Starting point is 00:11:49 who already stole it. Yes. And it's just like, okay, given the option between that and it belongs in a museum. It's already stolen. That part's the- You can't do anything about that. Something's occurring to me right now.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Museums are always trying to get money. This is one thing I know, right? Wow, that's fucked up actually, you're right. Yeah, museums are always trying to get money out of people. And this person is saying, and I've heard this before, that they only display like 1% of their collection. So, it seems to me that there's a real opportunity here where people could pay for an authentic Indiana Jones,
Starting point is 00:12:26 like more of like a national treasure heist experience. Where you pay the museum a hundred bucks and you're like for the next 24 hours, you're good. Well, I don't think, whoa, John, I don't think you can make it a blanket. Cars, watch. Yeah, but like within a dollar, you have to steal under the dollar amount, right? Oh. Well, I don't think, whoa, John, I don't think you can make it a blanket. Cars, watch. Yeah, but like, within a dollar, you have to steal under the dollar amount, right?
Starting point is 00:12:47 Oh! Okay, very good thing. You have to go into the annals, you have to find something that like nobody's gonna miss, and they probably have shelves where it's like, you know how bookstores have this thing where inside the books cost one thing, and in the library they're free, and then there's like a zone outside the bookstore
Starting point is 00:13:04 where it's like, you can steal these. Yeah, these are stealable fully. And then there's like a zone outside the bookstore where it's like you can steal these. Yeah, these are stealable fully. And it would be actually helpful. It would actually be better for us. It would be better if you would steal these. But we can't say to steal them, but like we're charging you a quarter, so please steal them. We are inside.
Starting point is 00:13:16 Yeah. We are inside. The books are not. You know there's nothing we can do about it. Nothing at all. Just go and steal them. We're so slow, even if we saw you through a window, could not chase you. It's occurring to me in the first three
Starting point is 00:13:27 Indiana Jones movies, and I'm not as familiar with the ones after that. In the first three movies, none of the three artifacts he's after end up in a museum. He's O for three. One ends up in a big warehouse, which is like a museum no one goes to, and most importantly, the Nazis don't get it. Yeah, but it's not a museum, right?
Starting point is 00:13:46 It's a warehouse. The second one is a bunch of rocks that glow. And he returns it to the people. He gives those back. That's killer. But the third one is the holy grail that shouldn't be a museum. But it falls down a big pit.
Starting point is 00:13:59 It's actually, can I tell you, Justin, it ends up in a worse location than when he began. It was being guarded by a knight's Templar, and ends up in a worse location than when he began. It's true. It was being guarded by a knight's templar, and by the end it falls to the Earth's core. Yeah. Yeah. All they have to do is nothing.
Starting point is 00:14:12 So he has actively not preserved history through his actions. Exactly. He kicked history into lava. Yeah. We're gonna get, or not, maybe it's just wedged in between the two craggy rocks down there, and the next expedition that comes in is like,
Starting point is 00:14:24 well, we have this rope, I guess one of us has to climb. The good news is we won't be killed by a templar's ghost or solve a bunch of spike traps. So like really, he really loosened the lid of this pick-up car. Okay, can I expand this out a little bit farther, guys? If we assume that God is an all-knowing omnipotent deity. Which in the Indiana Jones universe, he clearly is.
Starting point is 00:14:48 He is. Or they, she, who in the Indiana Jones universe, they were pretty squarely he. She sent her son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our sins. And that is God's design. Yes. The Indiana Jones franchise is reaffirming God's plan, God's design as outlined in the Christian religion.
Starting point is 00:15:11 Well, and to be clear, the second movie does establish there is a pantheon of gods. So it's not just the Christian gods, all gods as far as we're concerned. But this God who is omnipotent and all-knowing, he had the Holy Grailil and it's like, here's my plan that I've got it all worked out. See, I'm gonna put the grail with a bunch of other cups.
Starting point is 00:15:35 Yeah. Uh-huh, uh-huh, good. Loving it. And then I'm gonna have a nice Templar garden. That's pretty good, God. And then what's next for the plan? You're gonna love this part. So there's this guy, Indiana Jones. In my grand plan, this guy's gonna come in,
Starting point is 00:15:48 steal it from the night, kick it into some lava, and bolt with his dad. It's gonna be unreal. It's like, why? Good news is, Sean Connery lives. He saves his dad, so do not sweat that. And who's Sean Connery? Oh, he won't be born for eons, but you're gonna love him.
Starting point is 00:16:04 But I do need to sit in this room for let me check 2,000 years. Yeah, just before anybody shows up. That's right. No, you're going to be a little bored I did leave some highlights. Oh, I see you've solved most of the crosswords That's awkward What I like to think is that God was like now protect this cup and the nice temple I was like cool man how and it's like you think is that God was like, now protect this cup. And the nice Templar was like, cool man, how? And he's like, you'll figure that out. So the nice Templar then had to build some traps.
Starting point is 00:16:30 And they're like, they were so bored. At first they were just like, we'll fight people off with their swords. And then they're like, man, we're getting so old. There's no way we're gonna fight people with our swords. We gotta do some traps. We gotta build some traps, guys. Get me some big swinging axes and a floor that falls away
Starting point is 00:16:44 if you don't step on the right name. What? Yeah, I was gonna do a riddle thing where one of us always lies and one of us always, but that feels our goal. We're gonna do this thing where there's gonna be this bridge, but if you're standing at the exact right spot, it's gonna look invisible in how it fades into the rock wall
Starting point is 00:16:59 and the opposite side. What if they move a little bit from side to side? Oh, that's fine. That's fine, yeah. What are we pressing them on exactly? Oh, fuck. That's a good, penitence. Good Christian values, basically,
Starting point is 00:17:14 as viewed through the lens of dungeon traps. Yeah, man. I'm sure it's one of those times, and I'm sorry that this question is pivoted so completely. At the end of Last Crusade, if Indiana Jones had seen that man wither away into bones and had just be like stop the Adventure are you are you a ghost?
Starting point is 00:17:32 The man is like yes, I am an old Templar ghost from the and then Indiana Jones is like what the fuck so like There's an afterlife and there's a whole what happened do you know how old ghost? Did that guy who just turned into ashes become a ghost or do you not get to be a ghost if you turn into? There's an afterlife and there's a whole, what happened? Do everyone become ghosts? Did that guy who just turned into ashes become a ghost? Or do you not get to be a ghost if you turn into ashes? Cause the old J.L.A.D. Where's he going? Where does he go?
Starting point is 00:17:52 He's going to hell, right? He's a Nazi, he's going to hell, right? I'm right, right? He's wrong, he's going to hell, right? This is so important. You have to tell me. It's really important you tell me this. Do you know God and Jesus?
Starting point is 00:18:02 Someone had to tell you to bring that cup here, right? Someone had to tell you. When the old dude drinks the thing, when the dude drinks the thing and he turns to dust, old dude doesn't react in horror. So he knew that was, he's seen it before. Yeah, it's a bother. And enough that it's gotten old.
Starting point is 00:18:21 It's played out. Dude turns to dust before his very eyes and he's like, mm-hmm. He's like, you lucky duck. That's what happens. This would have been another great moment, Travis. This man turns to dust and the old ghost is like, you have chosen poorly.
Starting point is 00:18:37 And Indiana Jones is just like, holy fuck. Did you see that? That man just got so old so fast and died and you're chill with that? How often does this happen that you have a quip lined up about it? And you were like, oh fuck! The old ghost just puts a tally mark up.
Starting point is 00:18:56 Indy goes for the wrong cup, he's like, mm, come on, come on man. You seem cool dude, so I'm gonna throw you a bone for the cup of a carbonate, remember? Maybe he used to do it like, another one bites the, oh, I don't even feel like it anymore. This may have been the first time he had an audience. This may be the first time any of you be like,
Starting point is 00:19:17 hey listen, usually I imagine this is more of a solo affair. I got to witness this failed choosing of the cups. I'm gonna tell you, your vibe sucks. Your vibe is challenging and creepy. Will you just tell me which cup it is? Yes, no one ever asks. Roll a DC-15 investigation check. What's the right religion, Zollzor?
Starting point is 00:19:39 Yeah, what about it? Where are we at with this? Who had a bet? Episcopalians, no kidding, huh? Ah, dang it. I have my money on the Lutherans. Oh golly. Always put your money on the Lutherans. Can you do another-
Starting point is 00:19:50 Always bet on Lutheran. Another question, I'm hungry for it. Yeah, I'd love to do that for you, Griffin. I'm at my apartment's pool, and one of the people who rejected me from college's improv group is there. Oh, man. I don't think they live in the building.
Starting point is 00:20:04 I think they have their friend let them in to use the pool. My rejection last fall, and I would really like to re-audition this fall. Should I go say anything to them? If it helps, I have never been to one of their shows because I was too sad after the rejection. Other pertinent detail, they are reading a book.
Starting point is 00:20:20 That's from Yes And What Now. I assume when you say if it helps, you don't mean you in the situation, you mean giving us context clues. Yes. Because I don't know how saying to them like, and just so you know, I've never seen it. I haven't been to one of these.
Starting point is 00:20:33 I don't think that helps you. This could be an in bison, the day you were rejected from the college improv group was the worst day of your life for me, it was Tuesday situation. And you have that to your advantage, I will say. You now have the element of surprise, which in any social situation is always beneficial.
Starting point is 00:20:50 I do think this is time to show how much you've grown as a comedian and as an artist. Oh, maybe. I think you hit him with a, you walk out of the pool changing room at one of the toilet stalls and you hit him with a, do not go in there. Oh, that's so good.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Woo! That's great, Griffin. I think you hit him with a do not, go in there. Oh that's so good. Woo! That's great Griffin. I think you hit him with one of those and the person will be like, hey have you ever done improv? It's like, you finally mentioned that. You thought that this wasn't good enough and now guess what, you're never gonna get it. Oh, maybe pull out your phone,
Starting point is 00:21:18 improv a full blown conversation on the phone, right? Where you're like having like a think, but then it turns out like you're a secret agent who is allergic to farts, right? Yeah. And you just take the phone and you turn it around like, there was never anybody on the phone. That was all.
Starting point is 00:21:35 It's actually a picture of a QR code. And you're like, if you scan this, they'll give you my phone number and I could be on your team. Guys, I'm doing a thing right now I don't usually do when we come up, when we world build like this, where I'm imagining myself being at this pool and witnessing this encounter,
Starting point is 00:21:50 how quickly I would stand, dry my body, and take flight. Away, away from it. Oh, am I, oh shit, am I in the middle of an improv audition? I gotta get the fuck outta here, man, no! Why would you go, no, I would go in the pool, you have to go in the pool. I just dive into the pool and immediately start breathing in
Starting point is 00:22:06 so that I can be unconscious as quickly as possible. That's the best thing about pool if you have social anxiety, because they can't get you down there. They cannot. They can't get you down there. And you can go down for as long as you're physically in. That's why David Blaine started getting into the game.
Starting point is 00:22:20 You know what I mean? He was like, I'm so tired of conversations. If I could just bail for seven or eight minutes. Well, David Blaine was hanging out a lot with Toby McFlyer and Leonardo DiCaprio. So I understand why he would want to just stay out of conversations a lot. Yeah, all he would need to hear is,

I think what are you reading, what are you listening to, anything that I'm like, especially if I have headphones on, it's like I'm sending the signal
Starting point is 00:23:38 that I'm trying to remove myself from this plane of existence into a different dimension where it's the music or it's the book. I agree just in the on time what are you reading is allowed is if it's a friend of mine that I'm so close with but I'm excited to tell them about the book. No, even that. That's the worst. That's the worst one. Would you rather get hit with a what are you reading or what are you listening to? I think listening to is the absolute, oh my God. That's chilling.

Oh boy because they're getting in a jewelry business and Oh boy. Oh. Because they're getting in a jewelry business. And I'm just so- About damn time, I think.
Starting point is 00:32:27 I'm just so incredibly excited about this partnership. It's a sweet collaboration really, I say, and we've all been saying, with luxury jewelry designer Susan Alexandra. As National Ice Cream Day approaches, Baskin-Robbins, the world's largest chain of ice cream specialty shops, is excited to announce a partnership
Starting point is 00:32:44 with cult designer Susan Alexandra Wait, hold on. Let me try that. Yeah hit the emphasis different Cult designer that's that's Cold designer Yeah, I got it. This collaboration celebrates the joy of ice cream and the artistry of charm jewelry Offering consumers a delectable accessory to cherish. Charm jewelry has been experiencing a resurgence in popularity.
Starting point is 00:33:09 Now, this is interesting when a press release feels the need to tell you this. It's good. When this is clear. There's a reason we're doing this. We're doing it for a reason that isn't so self-evident to you. It's more popular now than it was.
Starting point is 00:33:25 Really, okay. Yeah, so it's not weird. No, people likes both these things. Fashionistas are drawn to its nostalgic appeal and customizable nature. Each charm tells a story. Surfing is a wearable memento of cherished memories and personal passions.
Starting point is 00:33:42 Those stories are always like tennis. Tennis! Plays! A new place! Apology from husband. Grandson, birth month. Granddaughter, birth month. Tennis again.
Starting point is 00:33:56 One of the grandkids don't know which one. Pickleball, pickleball, pickleball, pickleball. Pickleball. Yorkshire Terrier Linda It is weird that Baskin-Robbins has now spent two paragraphs attempting to justify What their ice cream necklaces like it's trust us this sounds crazy The centerpiece of this whimsical collection is a trio of charms
Starting point is 00:34:23 meticulously crafted to resemble iconic favorites from Baskin Robbins. The first charm features a nostalgic scoop of cotton candy, ice cream, purged atop a cinnamon waffle cone, evoking the playful spirit of summer. Remind me again, am I supposed to eat these? Am I supposed to eat these?
Starting point is 00:34:39 Yeah, it's a necklace still. The second charm showcases the brand's signature cappuccino blast, Brimming with creamy coffee goodness and sprinkled with a dash of cinnamon. Don't get confused. It's not. Still a necklace. Completing the ensemble is a miniature replica
Starting point is 00:34:53 of the beloved pink spoon, a nod to the brand's variety of ice cream flavors. And just in case your necklace sparks a sudden craving for a sweet treat, each order comes with a gift card. To, you guessed it, Baskin Robbins. Oh! Awesome, I would hope so. Actually, with this fucking charm bracelet on, I'd better be able to walk into any Baskin Robbins I want
Starting point is 00:35:14 and order whatever I want off the menu. I should be able to exchange the charms for ice cream treats if I am hard up. Yeah, you should be, you should be able to barter with them, absolutely. Quote, we're thrilled to collaborate with Susan Alexandra Yeah, you should be able to barter with them, absolutely. Quote, we're thrilled to collaborate with Susan Alexandra to bring this Charming Collection to life. Here, hold on, I'm gonna show you guys.
Starting point is 00:35:33 I want to show you these beautiful dealt with charms. I need to show you this Charming Collection. Because I feel like once you see these, you're gonna have to have them. Huh, yeah. So it's just these little, little I mean just like I said It doesn't work these I guess if no one else wants to say it. I don't think those look very good No, it does look somewhat bad. I don't think those like a thing that like a kid told their parent That morning like oh by the way. I need a thing for school
Starting point is 00:36:02 Like I'm supposed to I've got an art project and I need something like now. I certainly, it's better than I could do it. Certainly. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, for sure, it's not one of those kinds of things. The, if a jeweler handed me this product, I would raise an eyebrow. Just because, just on account of how not great they, not very good they are or look.
Starting point is 00:36:23 Jared Grandenetti continued, is a beep of marketing over there. National Ice Cream Day is a time to celebrate the joy that ice cream brings to people of all ages. And what better way to communicate it than with a beautiful piece of jewelry that captures the essence of our beloved brand. I could think of some edible ways that might be kind of fun.
Starting point is 00:36:43 More pertinent. But yeah, a little bit more pressing. And this is Susan Alexandra, who's known for her whimsical designs and attention to detail, infuse each charm with her signature style, creating miniature works of art that are sure to delight ice cream lovers
Starting point is 00:36:57 and fashion enthusiasts alike. Maybe that's the aesthetic, maybe it's the whimsy I'm not appreciating. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe it's the whimsy that you're wearing. But it's the whimsy, I'm not appreciating. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe it's the whimsy that you're wearing. I'm a serious man. When I think of charms, I think of little monopoly pieces. And these look, these appear to be
Starting point is 00:37:13 sort of hand-painted tiny, maybe they're all made bespoke, and if that's the case, there's great value in that, obviously. Now here's the weirdest part of this, guys. I'm gonna show you this part, because in the middle of this press release, and I don't know if maybe we're getting a little AI, a little AI interference in the,
Starting point is 00:37:34 gumming up the works, but it says, Susan Alexandra, and then that whole bit, and it says, ice cream has always held a special place in my heart, and I'm thrilled to partner with Baskin-Robbins to create this sweet collection," said Susan Korn. Who's Susan Korn? Huh.
Starting point is 00:37:50 Yeah, I don't know, Griffin. I don't know, man. It's really weird, but at one point in this press release, they just call her Susan Korn. Oh, she loves that band. Susan Korn is also a jewelry designer. Okay, so it's a different Susan Korn? So sorry, they just got confused
Starting point is 00:38:06 about their Susans? Cause there's Susan Alexandra, known for her whimsical designs, and then there's Susan Korn. I think maybe she- Who is also a jewelry designer. I think it's the same person. I think maybe they got married, and changed their last name?
Starting point is 00:38:21 In the middle of the press release? In the middle of the press release, I the middle of the press release, I think so. Every press release tells the story. And this press release tells the story of we forgot to go back and update the name previously. So I don't know, it's very confusing. I'm not sure. No, this is the same person.
Starting point is 00:38:37 Not confusing. Same person, according to her LinkedIn. Susan Alexander-Corn. It is confusing, Griffin. It's very confusing. Because they didn't write it good Because they didn't write it good. They didn't write it good. Charm jewelry allows us to carry our passions with us
Starting point is 00:38:50 wherever we go and I hope these playful charms bring joy to everyone who wears them. And I say right now, I'm loving it over here. I think this is bringing a lot of joy. I do like them, I've changed my expectations. I just wanna say, I've changed my expectations. I was thinking basic little baby sterling silver stuff. I think these are, I think these are just great.
Starting point is 00:39:09 They're very cute. I like the idea though that having a charm on a bracelet allows me to carry my passions with me wherever I go. As if maybe I could break out a tiny little tennis game with the little racket on my thing. Not just as a totem that I can be like, I like this thing, but instead a little bit of it with me. I've never used or owned a Coke spoon,
Starting point is 00:39:32 but from what I've heard, this little charm, this would look cool. This would be a classy one. I'm great for that, I bet. I bet, I don't know. What's a good amount of Coke? Yeah, what's like? Hey, brothers! Brothers, what's like, hey brothers.
Starting point is 00:39:45 Brothers, come a bit, ma'am. I always hear the term bump. My guys know if that's metric or imperial. There's a lot of reasons why I have not and don't really have any interest in doing cocaine. I would say the number one issue would be I would show up to a table or a mirror or maybe a table made out of a mirror.
Starting point is 00:40:06 Or someone's butt, I see that in movies too. Or someone's butt or butt hole and they would put out a amount of cocaine and I would be like, all right, here I go. How much is, how much is good? How much, the whole thing? The whole thing? As I'm using my credit card to slice off,
Starting point is 00:40:22 I don't know, a line or whatever, I'm definitely watching that person's face. And I don't know, a line or whatever, I'm definitely watching that person's face. And I don't know that I'd be able to parse if the disappointment was he's taking way too much or he's not doing enough. But he's brushing a lot of this into the carpet. A lot of it. Yeah, that line is not straight.
Starting point is 00:40:40 He's gonna have a hard time lining that up. He's gonna have to go in a zigzag pattern with his face to get all of that. Yeah. He's telling himself of a Hot Wheels track of cocaine. A Domino Rally of Coke. The tone of voice I would adopt
Starting point is 00:40:55 when asking how much cocaine should I do would force the other person, if they cared about me in the slightest, to say, I'm not gonna let you do this. Yeah. There's no way. I can tell you don't actually want to. That's why what you do slightest to say, I'm not gonna let you do this. There's no way. I can tell you don't actually want to. That's why what you do is you say,
Starting point is 00:41:08 let me cut you a line first. Tell me when. How much do you want? Say when. I'll have what he's having. Is that too much? How much are you feeling tonight? Yeah, but then you make the line the same length,
Starting point is 00:41:22 but the line is way taller. It's like your mound is too, bro, are you trying to fucking rage tonight? Your mound is huge. You never see him level it off in movies. No, you don't. Get out your little measuring spoon and then whoop, right off the top.
Starting point is 00:41:36 Give me a little tasteful cocaine mold that I can turn into a little bento box. A cocaine sandcastle. Don't limit yourself. Just make it a pill I can eat. Thank you. Just a cocaine pill. I don't think that's too much to ask.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Or a drink. I know how to take that. I know how to even buy the drink. Indeed you do, Traf. Thank you, Justin. I've been using Big Boy Cups for many years now. Very proud. Oh, I meant to tell you guys a story
Starting point is 00:42:07 before we do our next question. I'll tell you a story real quick, because I meant to tell you. We did one of those murder mysteries, like an immersive murder mystery where everybody has a character when we're at the beach. And it was like an 80s themed thing,
Starting point is 00:42:22 and there was not enough roles for the kids, so the kids had to be the children of some of the guests at the murder mystery, right? Cool. So we're all sitting around eating dinner, having some steaks, a slice of meat, and we're doing our murder mystery. Then at one point, Cooper, who was playing Sidney's daughter,
Starting point is 00:42:41 who was like a kids food YouTuber named Lila. She was born for that role. I know, it was a perfect role for her. At one point she comes to me and she says, dad, I wanna go change my costume. And I'm like, okay. So she leaves, okay? This is about an hour and a half
Starting point is 00:42:58 into the murder mystery. Were you her dad? Was your character her dad? Sydney was her parent, I was Charlie's parent. Okay. I was a tech billionaire and Sydney was a parent, I was Charlie's parent. Okay. I was a tech billionaire and Sydney was a... Then I gotta critique you right here, Juice. You should have said, I'm not, I'm sorry little girl,
Starting point is 00:43:10 you seem to be confused. And maybe with a southern accent. I am Maxwell Boulevard. Sorry, Griffin, she said pause the game first. Oh, okay, then that's fine. Before she said, so yeah. So I sent her upstairs and we're all sitting around the table and we're reading our different parts and then Cooper comes down in a completely different outfit with completely different makeup
Starting point is 00:43:30 And she's sitting at the table and takes the seat she had previously and we said hello. She said hello. I'm sailor I am Lila's cousin. Oh Interesting so where the murder mystery continues another half hour and sailor is great And she's out there for like a minute, and then she comes back in, and she looks like she's been crying. And we said, Cooper, what's wrong? Or sorry, we said, sailor, what's wrong? She said, I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:43:53 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:44:00 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. And she comes back in and she looks like she's been crying. And we said, Cooper, what's wrong? Or sorry, we said, sailor, what's wrong? I just got off the phone.
Starting point is 00:44:12 Lila was murdered. She said, and it was the murderer from this. She killed Lila too. Oh my God. I said, what? Holy shit. from this she killed Lila too oh my god what holy shit the child double homicide yes she killed my god Lila's been murdered I just heard on the phone we're dealing with this serial killer and it was this same killer that did it there are no new clues from that murder thing new no new reveals I got to tell you guys the way that this reveal ratcheted up the intensity of the
Starting point is 00:44:53 evening where suddenly this this was no longer a crime of mistaken identity or passion this is a full-on maniac that we to stop. And he could kill again. Because I'll tell ya, the grand reveal at the end of the murderers identity had a slightly different power when we did then have to inquire about the murder of Lila. The seemingly unrelated kid killing that happened. A great distance away it sounds like. In England actually.
Starting point is 00:45:22 Whoa. It turned out, I know. A real jet setter. I was surprised too. How about another question? How's that? Yes, please. I want it. Every time I'm out driving
Starting point is 00:45:32 and I see a car that is the same make, model, and color as mine, I have the urge to get the other driver's attention to point out that we have the same car. What is the best way to do this? In the past, when I've successfully waved down a car that's the same as mine, the other driver's never nearly as excited as I am.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Oh, you don't say. Should I still keep trying to get the attention on our car twins or just leave them be? That's from same car seer in Santa Cruz, California. Now listen, I haven't implemented this in a while, but would a sign help? Oh, wow. Because here's my thought process.
Starting point is 00:46:07 Anytime I'm in a car, if someone's desperately trying to get my attention, the level of like, I left something on top of the car, I'm on fire, the gas, I've left the gas pump in and I've driven off and it's dragging around my head, right? Something's terribly wrong. Yeah. Yeah. The amount of time it would take me to process
Starting point is 00:46:31 that no, no, it's just exciting that we have the same make, model, and color cars. I don't wanna be freaked out for even a second when I'm behind the wheel of my big automobile. So if I look over and you just hold up a sign that says like, car tweens, right? Like, I think that would instantly clue me, Oh, I'm gonna feel both excitement and relief Where is the car twins sign that it is both accessible and safe? Yeah
Starting point is 00:46:55 I'm driving you got ten into you got ten and two ten and two. Oh, I think this is happening at a red light I changed it. It's nine and three. we changed it. We changed it? Did it? When? A daylight savings time. I changed, yeah, daylight savings time. It's nine and three now. They realize that nobody ever did 10 and two. You just half cock it?
Starting point is 00:47:13 Got carpal tunnel. I like to do like 10 and eight. Well, 30. Or two and eight. All day long. That's where I'm at. I do eight and nine. Just over here. I got a finger on six, a finger on six.
Starting point is 00:47:25 I drove 300 miles with a finger on six. I just assumed that this was happening at a red light, but if it is happening while in motion. That's bad, I don't want anybody, oh man. At a red light, you get the extra panic of, oh, they could kill me. Like, I can't just zoom out of here. I do assume, once again, someone's
Starting point is 00:47:46 definitely trying to get my attention. They're angry at me, absolutely. I think that if it's silent, and you're just giving them the full bore stare, and they make eye contact with you, then I think like double thumbs up. Double thumbs up, same car. Same car.
Starting point is 00:48:02 Maybe like pointing around the window. Same car, and you mount, same car,, same car. Same car. Same car. Maybe like pulling around the window. Same car! And you mount up, same car, the same car! Same car! Same. Same car. Same car. One time I was driving along, like between Charleston and Huntington,
Starting point is 00:48:17 it's like a 50 hour long drive. And for like 50- 50 hour long drive? No, it's like 50 minutes to an hour, depending, yeah. You understand, okay. And this car for about 10 minutes was keeping pace with me in the lane next to me. And I'm like looking straight ahead because I was like, what's happening?
Starting point is 00:48:34 Why is this person doing this? And then I was like, I must know them, that must be it. So I turned and looked, I did not recognize the person at all. They looked at me, threw up the bird so hard. Oh no. Like, blew, but like not in an angry way, like it was an explosive, like thumbs up.
Starting point is 00:48:53 They looked at me and went, boof, and like threw their head back. What had you done? And zoomed off. What had you done? No, this is what I'm saying, Griffin. They didn't seem angry. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:03 They seemed like they were just waiting for the perfect time to get me an 80s cool dude. Like a prank. Cold one. And then fly off. I still think about it to this day. I've many times been in a situation where I'll look at a car of people
Starting point is 00:49:19 that are younger than me, and I notice they're all kinda looking in my direction and kinda laughing. And it's like, I know it's not mean spirited probably, but they're probably like just kind of clowning on me for whatever, it could be anything. My car, my sort of like shirt or whatever. I just wish they would kind of point to something
Starting point is 00:49:37 that they don't like that they're laughing at. So I would know like, what can I work on? Cause I can't fix just you laughing at me and pointing, but if they're like, your shirt is a joke, it's bad. That's why I roll down my window and I say like, is it something specific or just my whole deal in general? Please. My shirt has a serial mascot on it,
Starting point is 00:49:59 and that's, I'm guessing that's the offending issue. Is that what it is? That's fair. Are you guys laughing because you're intimidated by me? Because that's what my dad says it is. Is that the case or like what's, no? I think it's 2024. I think we have evolved the needs
Starting point is 00:50:22 behind the great job horn. The suggestion that there would be a trio of horns, I believe, one letting a driver know they're doing a great job, one to let them know politely, like, hey, it's time to go, and one for, hey, fuck you, man. I think that we'd need more buttons on the machine. Maybe it's an app, and we can hit people with the same car. We can hit people with a, your shirt is Clown Town shoes.
Starting point is 00:50:47 Like, beep. I need a button that's interrogative, that's like a, yes? Like, can I help you? Kind of thing, you know? There's a, it should be like a, ba ba ba ba, and that means you got a hemi? You working with a hemi in that bad boy?
Starting point is 00:51:04 What if each brand had its own distinct horn that was almost sort of like an audio bumper that you could play whenever you're just wanting to kind of crow around. And it's everyone sounded is like, Nissan or whatever. Sega. Well, that would be more like, Nissan.
Starting point is 00:51:22 Cause it's a horn, I don't know. Honda. Each one's got higher and don't know. Honda. That's a different key. Each one's got higher and higher and higher. Yeah. Toyota. Toyota would be cool. You just hit the horn.
Starting point is 00:51:32 Check this out. K-k-k-kia. That one writes it so easy. Maybe it's just personalized to the person. Yeah. I would love a Travis horn. Can I do one more? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:42 Tesla. Pretty good. Here it goes. Pocket. Tesla, I cost $200,000, Tesla. I saw a Tesla Cybertruck the other day and I finally put together, it's actually a service being offered where you ever need to ramp over something.
Starting point is 00:51:59 It's so well- They're there for you. So you can be like, yeah, ramp off my bank. I ramp off my stupid. I've seen one in person now and guys the amount of joy and It made me so happy I pull out there is his non-zero chance at this point in Huntington I will pull up at a stoplight behind the Cybertruck and the Michael Keaton Batman behind the Cybertruck and the Michael Keaton Batman Batmobile that are just like ready to have a drag race against each other. That could happen to me. The Cybertruck looks like when Pixar occasionally publishes their like blooper behind the scenes
Starting point is 00:52:34 like we were trying to animate this scene and we put in like one number wrong so all the lines went to the wrong place and you could like see Woody's teeth through it or something. Like that's what the design for the Cybertruck is. The Cybertruck looks like you're trying to watch truck pornography on your parents' TV, but they didn't pay for it. No way, I think that's a bumper. Look, look, look, look, right there, it's a bumper.
Starting point is 00:52:57 Oh no, it's backwards. No, it's backwards, okay, no, shoot, okay. I think it looks like from Star Fox on Super Nintendo Andros' dick. That's probably what Andros' it looks like from Star Fox on Super Nintendo, Andros's dick. That's probably what Andros's dick looks like. It does look like a car rendered on Nintendo 64. It's got this car has super FX. Hey, thank you for listening to My Brother, My Brother and Me.
