Episode Date: July 14, 2025

Live, ten minutes from Disneyland at the Grove Theater, we're bringing class and superhero merch to answer California's most pressing questions about friends and nemeses, good neighbors, and drawing photorealistic pictures. Why do you need to know what we look like?Suggested talking points: Scoop of Papa, The Enthusiastic Yelp of a Power Washer, OGG Farts, Pirate Radio Snack Wraps, Scareacter, Next Iteration of MessImmigrant Defenders Law Center: https://www.immdef.org/

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 mentioned 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 I could've never seen what was coming for me Hangs at the skate park, hangs by the beach

What's up, Trav Nation? It's me, Griffin, sweet baby brother, 30 under 30, media luminary, Bill Fortuff, McElroy. All right. You're right, he needs this more than we do. Yeah. That's the message I'm getting and I couldn't agree more.

Now that I hope you don't go too far pal. Anybody go see Superman today? Anybody see Superman at the Grove 30 AMC? At 9 AM? At 9 AM? In fucking IMAX? At 9 a.m. in IMAX. The time to see movies.

When we asked for the tickets, they said, are you sure? They yell a lot in this movie. There's so much yelling. Your mind can't handle that at nine in the morning. Hey, but we are 2000 miles from where we live, so we thought, let's go see a movie. Now I mention that distance because I'd like Dad

to come back out real quick if he could, because I asked him to stay close by. Show us. Which is. It's his fucking movie merch. could because I asked him to stay close by. Show us. This fucking movie merch. So this is again. This is a man that has a suitcase. This is a man that has a suitcase.

And I just want to show you that what have you bought for us? What have you brought today? Well, Justin, today I have the special Superman commemorative cup. Yeah. Yeah. With cape. Justin today, I have the special Superman commemorative cup. Yeah, yeah with cape Which also came with a commemorative it gets better chain I know and this lovely popcorn box

In shape like a daily planet newspaper box. I want to touch on Before the movie started I overheard a conversation that happened in the seats directly behind us between a father and his son I believe the son was probably about ten years old and he was talking about how he wanted one of those popcorn boxes That dad had set up on the ledge in front of him And the dad goes no way. Do you see how big that thing is? Yeah. It's like the size of a C, you don't need that. And then I made eye contact with this child,

like you're going a different path than I went. Just because of who's raising you. But Justin also said the meanest thing I've ever heard him or anyone say to our father would you like to repeat that in front of the no come on juice you were proud enough of this to say it out loud in front of this little kid who is right behind come on come on Justin my son my first born. Yeah, I really, I don't want juice. No, no, no, juice. It was mean, but you- It was too mean and I was mad

because of how early it was and I wasn't- I didn't, I don't know what this is about me. I didn't think it was that mean. I thought it was pretty mean, but you did eat. So can you please? I just told dad that absolutely guarantee 100%, no question I was going to be putting his ashes in it. And it was not a damn thing he could say or do.

He goes right in there where the newspapers go. Yeah. And then that's great, cause anytime we need a scoop of Papa. Like, like if it snows and there's ice on the driveway or something, we need to grit it. Yeah. Also be a great little gerbil litter box.

Hey, that popcorn can't still be good, huh? Because we saw that movie at nine in the goddamn morning. All right. Thanks, Dad. Thank you so much, Dad. Appreciate you. Thank you. Thank you. Don't forget your glass. Yeah, you don't want to lose the cup. Do you guys ever see him buy shit like that and think, oh man, that money would have been mine in about 10 years.

You know what sucks? What sucks is I clowned on him so hard when the box came out and I was clouting on him so hard that when the cup came out and I thought, man, that cup kind of fucks. But you can't. I can't at that point get what I way myself cuz I talked so much shit the cup with a cape kind of fucks I like Superman do you all sure do I like a big tumbler I can make it's perfect for white wine you need a lot of yes sure man face for that this is my brother my brother me it's an advice show we take your

questions on this show and turn them alchemy like into wisdom we asked you the people of Anaheim we took a poll and these are the questions that you sent into us the brothers Macaron yeah that's usually how it works Justin Travis and Griffin you guys know I'm vamping because my Wi-Fi won't How do you ask your neighbors if you can power wash their sidewalks for fun? That's from one of you in here named Power Wash of Friendship. Are you here? Wait, sorry. Are you here? All right.

Do you ever think in those moments when you ask, are you here? When there's like a significant break and then someone moves that someone in the audience is like, oh, are you here? When there's like a significant break and then someone who's that someone in the audience thought, oh, they're not here. The McRoy brothers are going to feel terrible. I'll make a noise. It's definitely happened at least once guaranteed. That was the enthusiastic yelp of a power washer.

If I've ever heard one and I get it. Come on. I got my own power washer at home. I love that dang thing. Yeah. It's fun. And I feel like I'm just taking care of bugs and ghosts or whatever. It's great.

Get it. You're fucking bragging now on stage. I'm just talking about power washing, Griffin. Yeah, I guess so. I don't know how you can communicate to the person that you are not just passive aggressively telling them they need to clean up their sidewalk because that sounds like an excuse that you would invent like well I gotta clean them somehow oh I know I'll tell them I love to do it that'll

get that'll smooth things along how many times would you have to watch your neighbor power wash their own sidewalk before you went over to them, had in hand, very shame faced and said, could you do mine too? Yeah. Yeah, I would need to know they can handle their instrument because it's a dangerous job. I don't want them going rogue and blasting one of my gnomes.

Like no fucking way, man. I need to make sure they're constantly moving. If they stay in one place for too long, they'll bore a hole through the a sidewalk I don't need that I think the most surprising thing about a power washer and if you have a power washer you know this and I learned it the hard way is that if you put the nozzle on just the right way you will rip through cement you will make lines in the cement now I didn't know this

And when and when it first happened my thought was this well that can't be right It's just water. It's just water. It's just fast water. I just like kept How the fast water go in the rock? I just said they're doing it and thinking listen down this thing Do you think there's no way there's no way. There's no way. That's what I keep thinking. There's no way this is happening. Do you think that's what God felt when he watched the river carve out the Grand Canyon?

Yeah, yeah. And he was like, no fuck away, man. No fucking way. It's so big. Look at this. Gabriel, Gabriel, get this shit out. Gabriel, watch. Wait, watch.

Hold on, wait, wait, wait, wait. Just keep watching. Yeah. Just like two million years. Just watch. Wait for two million years. It's crazy, right? I gotta make people so they can see this. I'm gonna act like I planned it.

You watch, it's gonna be amazing. I better make donkeys too. I got a plan. Would it be easier to make their sidewalks super duper yucky through some sort of sneaky means Do you have a neighbor on the other side of their house? Who's a big messy boy? Yeah, and you just happen to be walking through with the nozzle on and you just did their sidewalk Oh, you were doing your own sidewalk when you little went a little too far. Yeah, then you all sort of even it out Yeah, that's good. I was trying to fly around on it like a Super Mario Sunshine did. And I got a little bit on your sidewalks

and I am sorry about that. No, no, Steve, just let me do your sidewalks for free. You don't understand the joy it'll bring me. I will, I do think you can make the argument that you have made my sidewalks look demonstrably worse by comparison. But you do owe me something, right? Like you've just gone out there, cleaned your sidewalks and made me aware of how bad my look. So you do, you are in debt to me somehow.

I thought we were all in this together. I didn't know we were like a power washing street when I bought the house. I do love the impulse to explain to the neighbor that you are doing it for fun and not for nice. Like you're explicitly telling them like, you don't have to pay me, but also this is about me and not about you. For me, no, I wouldn't do this if I didn't love it. I actually hate your fucking guts, but you have a long, unblemished trail of asphalt out there

that I would love to get my- I think it would be actually supremely blemished, right? That's the issue, right? It's tantalizingly blemished. Yeah. How about another question? Can I ask you guys a question? Uh, yeah.

Yeah, I guess so. I was thinking about this the other day, and then I was reminded of it today during a conversation we had during dinner. You know how there are people who think like, oh, a hundred guys versus a gorilla. I think if I was one of those guys, I'd win. Or who think like, oh, a hundred guys versus a gorilla. I think if I was one of those guys, I'd win. Or they think like, oh, I've never been in a fight before.

I think I went to fight. I don't know. Do you think it's normal to believe that if faced with just something inhumanly evil, like something from hell that in that moment I could summon a blade of pure light. Okay, I'm gonna put it. Do you think that's normal? Okay. Do other people feel that way? This is a I feel like I'm having a dream. And it's not a good one. Do I think you would summon a blade? Do you think I would? Do you think

it's normal that I think I would? I need you to promise not to yell because me and Justin are about to say a lot of mean stuff at you pretty fast. And if we start talking over each other, it's going to get unpleasant sonically. Would you produce a blade of pure light if faced up? You can't. Trav? Fuck, man. You just introduced this subject out of nowhere. The fucking bridge that you used to get us to the subject was a meme that is at this point 600 years old. You brought up fucking David after dentist and asked us to play in the space and then also that's not really what you want to talk about on stage with your two brothers in front of 5,000 people It is can you project a blade of pure light out of your arm?

Oh, hey like what the fuck man Griffin. I can't stress this enough. I'm not asking if you think I could do it I'm asking do you think other people think they could do it just like I do is it normal to feel that way? You're asking is do other people think that it's normal for you to think it yes, and the answer to that is a resounding yes if you If you start producing shit made out of pure radiant light out of your chest or whatever It would be in my hand like I would just kind of throw my hand out and the blade would form okay That's weird. What? It's gonna come out blade first then, it's gonna hurt your hand if it comes out of your chest then... No, it just for- the handle would be in my hand and the blade would form.

If someone sees you produce anything made out of pure light from your hand or chest, do you realize the expectation you have then set in their mind? You're hanging out with them later and they're like, where's the clicker? I don't know, Travis, produce one. Produce one for- When you see a mother lift a burning car off their child, you're not like, great, Debbie can help me move later. Yeah.

That fur, it's funny. At first, I was tolerating this just because I still couldn't get connected to the wifi. And then at a certain point, I was tolerating this just because I still couldn't get connected to the Wi-Fi. And then at a certain point, I did get connected to the Wi-Fi, and I found myself powerless to stop it. It was like a real, it was a real hand on the stove kind of moment, you know what I mean? I was thinking like, how long can you take it? It's not like, I don't know.

No. I'm an engineer, not an artist, but I mess around with drawing for fun. Hey, you're an artist. Many years ago, A machine artist. Many years ago, I made a silly drawing based on a sillier inside joke between me and a friend. I thought it came out pretty good, so I decided to gift it to said friend. This friend displays all sorts of things around their house,

from Capital A art to McDonald's Happy Meal toys, and my drawing would absolutely fit in nicely. It has been well over a decade and I have... I wanted to see how you all would react if I didn't put any mustard on it at all, and the answer was still pretty good. Yeah. He puts some, puts the appropriate amount of mustard on it at all. And the answer was still pretty good, yeah. He put the appropriate amount of mustard on it. It's been well over a decade, and I have never seen my drawing again.

How do I ask for it back? That's from no public display of friendship in orange. Are you here? And I'm kinda hoping no, cause I'm scared of you a little bit. Hi. Hi. Hello.

Hi, this is a, hi. You're very close. You're quite close, huh? If I could be farther away. A decade is a way of putting things that is so interesting to me. A decade is how a super villain thinks in time. A super villain thinks in terms of decade, score,

millennia, eon, for eons. Millennia, yeah. Millennia. I can't remember shit from a decade ago, and it's so awesome and great that this is one of your your decade-long memories. I so much in my life has changed in the last decade I've moved numerous times the idea of someone I know saying hey do you remember that

thing I handed you over a decade ago go get it for me now. Yeah, I think... I'd change my name and fake my death. Do you think that they are going to say, oh, of course I have it hanging... I have it. I have it. I filed it right here under a friend drawing. Oh, that drawing you made? I have it.

It's a... It was too beautiful. It's in my safety deposit box. Oh, that drawing? It's here, in my house. We have it hanging in the annex. In reserve. I see that in resin.

I got news for you. If they liked your art, they got a place to put it. It's called their walls. I'm very afraid to say that I don't think it is still exit in terms of like what you think I go through this almost every day. I have two children. They will hammy things that they have made Constantly and in my head I have to decide is are they handing it to me to display or to get rid of and I can't Ask they don't and they don't ever say it. They don't ever say, get rid of this for me, or this is a test.

I was using a service to help with this for quite a while called Archive. And what you do is there's a big box, and then you throw your kids art, the good stuff, not the weak shit. Like the good stuff. They're like, I just kind of scribbled on a thing. Look.

Yeah, you traced your hand. Thank you. So the good stuff I'll save. But then, I swear to God, this is the most demented... I have loved this system because it has saved me from having to do this calculation all the time. If there's any doubt, I'm just like, put it in the box. I came home and, oh sorry, with the box, what you do is you ship it out to this company and digitize everything Oh, wow, so they'll like digitize. They'll send you back like a digital file or whatever book however you want it so

I come in and I see Cooper Has drawn a painting on the box Wow It's the Kobayashi Maru. Guys, she drew a painting on the box over the label I need to send it to the company to digitize it. Dude, can I just say though, that's some Banksy level meta commentary.

It's like, if you held onto that- I couldn't even be mad. It's worth millions if you held onto that, it's worth millions at this point, Justin. I couldn't even be mad. So draw your friend another drawing and then insist that they put them together. So you're like, I just, it's a companion piece. I'd love to see the two side by side.

I'll wait. You can, yeah. You know, it's funny if you didn't hang the front cuz I thought you would have hung the map on the back Oh, that's good. What's the map? What's the map go to? And you'll say like I'm sure you noticed it Well, why don't you go check it out right now? Yeah, that'll get it. You got me good I got no response to that man when they go to look for it. They'll never come back out You just don't have that friend anymore.

They will wait for you to leave their house. They do not need to be party to that. Listen, it's so wonderful to be here on Anaheim. I'm just thinking that. I'd like to take this moment to just kind of class up the show a little bit. It's been a little silly and a little- Oh, Jesus Christ.

A little pure rile, if you will, with random people bringing up swords of pure light. So I'd like to present a little work of fart. I hate that stinger every fucking time I hear it played. Do you realize what a shame it is to me, for me? What a shame it is on me. Whenever people ask me what I do and I explain, this is the moment I always think of. Playing that wet fart noise at 64 kilobytes.

And that was a new one. Paul changed it up with the fart. I was actually gonna say that sounded fully lossless. Yeah, super! Now when I tell people what I do and I think of this exact fucking moment, I won't feel embarrassed because the fart noise was a higher resolution for sure. What I do is I notice the difference in bit rates of fart noises. Yeah.

I notice whether or not fart noises are all the files. I will present to both of you some works of fart. Yeah. Specifically this time Disney related as we are here in Anaheim home at Disneyland. Amazing. So you will have to tell me which Disney titles slightly change.

Yeah, sure. I am talking about. I despise this game and I absolutely smash ass at it. Let's fucking go. This version of the animated undersea classic reveals that those creepy shriveled things- The little spermade. I'm just saying. Now can I-

You gotta get out of bed a little bit. No, get down now. Can I say- Oh, I'm sorry. Do I not smash- Just ask me that. Just say Griffin Griffin, please please please no smash my ass Say that like just say if you want super not gonna say that like super not gonna say that You know, I'm not gonna say anything like that. Say don't smash that much ass, dude, and I will back I promise you dude. I was saying he wrote the jet Yeah, I'll pump the brakes if you don't want me to smash complete ass dude for sure. Zoom out It's a comedy podcast. Yeah.

They came here for- A competitive comedy podcast. Yeah, and I'm smashing ass over here. Travis went through the trouble of writing the jokes. Can I tell you the biggest joke is on Griffin as proving he thinks about this the same way I do. I know, it sucks. I smash ass at this and very little else.

I just feel like you should be forced to let him finish the set up. Okay, cool. So the audience can enjoy the whole bit. What if I'm wrong? This version of the animated undersea classic reveals that those creepy shriveled things Ursula has captured are mermaids.

Okay, now Ursula's totally right. And it was the little mermaid. Little spermate, thank you. Okay, this next one is written in the form of a personal ad. Thank goodness. Why are you, why? As I suspected you would say soon.

Cursed furry with anger issues seek to cake up book lover with ass for days. Oh, The Booty and the Beast? Correct! That sucks. Wow! I hate that it took me as long as it took me to get that. I'm embarrassed that I didn't get it faster.

Fuck. In a retelling of the Rapunzel story from Flynn Rider's point of view, he spends most of the movie hanging his dick over things. Dangle it! You're fucking alright Travis McElroy. Okay. He may not be a real boy, but this puppet is all man, and his nose isn't the only thing that grows. Dillsocchio. No.

Dill. Dill. Pino, bonarocchio, bonarocchio? I was looking for Pinochio. I also would have accepted penis-occhio, it just doesn't work as well. No. Okay, I got one more.

He may not be considered a looker, but this guy sure knows how to ring those bells and swing his balls. The Hunch Sack of Notre Dame. Correct! Sucks. Sucks, that's great. I can't even tell who won.

It's hard to say. I mean, I got all of them. Only I win in Work of Fart. Except I do, but I did, but I did, but I did win, right? Yeah, you won. Okay, good. He needs this, Justin. We don't need it.

You and I have our own things going. We coach a high school e-sports team and we want to buy matching uniforms to help our players be taken seriously. How do we convince a bunch of skeptical gamer teens that wearing matching uniforms is cool? That's from Jersey Jaded's in Orange County. Are you here? Awesome. Hoggers. What? Hoggers. I do not know what that is. I do not know what that is. I mean does it have to be an athletic looking uniform? Could it just be like could it just you have six Wolverines? At least let them be

Deadpools they said they wanted to be respected. You have to earn Deadpool. The team captain can be Deadpool. Deadpool. Whoa what if you, are you saying you have one Deadpool and several Wolverines on each team? Or are you saying you have a power ranking? Wait, on each team, hold on. So you're saying that competing teams of esports athletes. Sometimes a family is one Deadpool and is five Wolverines.

I'm saying, here's what I'm saying. However many numbers of your chess team there are you should have that many iconic outfits It's easy if you have four then you should do sex in the city characters So each one of you there's one Samantha one Charlotte one, you know Get it. Well, Miranda. Yeah the whole the whole bit, but if you got seven or eight Avengers I don't know cool the wheels fell off once you get to seven it's a lot harder to contextualize like a seven member team I mean yeah I should have said five because then you get the planet tears

you gotta dress up yeah sure I think that you're missing the obvious option This option here is one word, skins. Like Fortnite skins. Okay. It sounded like about- I heard it. I heard it. I heard it as I said it. So I assume we're getting a bunch of war boys together. A bunch of, it's just a bunch of shirtless teens.

Zergin out. Zergin out. Zergin out. Zergin out. Drinking balls. They do the same thing every time, but look at them. They're so intimidating. No, I meant don't call them uniforms, call them skins like Fortnite skins.

But now I see that maybe don't introduce the concept of skins to your teenage sports kids. Because it'll be too powerful, and then all the teams will want to be skins, and then it'll just be a fight over who gets to be skins and who is on shirts today. I think if you could earn, what if you did loot crates? Just little cardboard boxes you let rip them open, there's different size uniforms. Maybe they fit, maybe they don't. You know, it's kind of like that. You gotta trade them in.

Gotta trade them in. And give them Kansas spray paint that they can spray their own tags on stuff. They don't make you worry about that in Fortnite when you open one up and it's like, oh cool, I can wear a suit to look like Bruno Mars. Oh man, it's way too big for my guy. I look like I'm wearing Bruno Mars' dad's clothes, dang it. They also don't show whatever custodial staff there is in Fortnite who has to go around scrubbing all the spray paint tags off of everything yeah after the game ends

Dang kids By the way, we're about to do 20 minutes of observational fortnight humor so Brace your asses more like fart night, okay? I mean Can it give you some sort of advantage in the game? Can it be pumping, have pumps with coolant? Okay, yeah.

I'm imagining sort of like Bane, but it's like pumping, like, you know, energy drinks. Yeah, like Monster, yeah. Like Monster, too big. If they could make suits that would like work your muscles to keep you from getting carpal tunnel syndrome, that would be huge. Yeah, that'd be sick too. Simple electrical pulses.

What about like... darts? Like what if the uniforms had dart guns like built-in like weapons? Oh yeah, sure. Like smoke bombs and stuff. Yeah, do you think that would let that happen? Do you think they would let that happen? The rules differ.

Just like six predator costumes. Yeah. EMP that they can set off if the match starts going not their way. A bunch of switchblades. We're just talking about loadout at this point. I don't even need these uniforms anymore. Hey, here's another question.

I'm an artist and I like to go to places like coffee shops to practice drawing strangers as they go about their business It's a great way to practice figure drawing. The problem is from a distance It looks like I'm just intently staring at people while scribbling in a notebook. I mean It looks like what it is brothers How do I get my art practice in without coming across as creepy?

And that's from my promise. I'm an artist, not a serial killer. Are you here? Hello? Hey, I wanna say, first off, most are both. That is a good point. The Venn diagram, most artists aren't, most serial killers are.

For sure, for sure. Have you ever considered building a hunting blind? Obviously not for hunting. No, no, no. Then maybe call it something fucking else. An artist blind? Some kind of camouflage? Perhaps a fake bookcase? That you can stand behind, not be thwarted by your prey. The subject. Everybody's so PC these days.

Can't even call human prey anymore. If I saw someone taking discreet photos of me while seated in the corner of a cafe, I would be bummed out by that. I would not, but I would be bummed out by that. I would not, but I would want to walk over and say like, hey, don't take a picture of me. If someone's doing a sketch of me and I walk over,

I guess it depends on how good the sketch is. That's my bar. If the sketch is so good that it almost looks like a photograph of me, fuck that. You can't have that for free, no way. Wait, are you saying, sorry, is the idea here that the better the picture is, the more upsetting you find the extra?

Yeah, the more they caught me. I agree, because the better the picture is, the less practice they need. Yeah. You could have hired a model at this point. I understand if you're so bad at it, that you're like, I can't even show this to a model or take a class, they wouldn't see this.

Yeah, of course you would have to do that in the wild. But if you're really good at it, go pay them. But if they really fucking capture me, I don't want them to have that. No way! What are you gonna do with it, creepazoid? Why do you need to know what I look like so bad? But if it's a shitty drawing of me where you can't tell it's me, go right ahead. Now, Griffin, let me ask you a question.

Yeah, go ahead. I feel like I've established my rules pretty solid. In this same scenario, you look over, someone's clearly drawing you. Yeah. You can hear it, right? You can hear it? Okay, go ahead. They have a big easel set up. Yeah. They're wearing a floppy beret. Sure.

Maybe like a linen tunic. Why? They've got like a paint brush behind their ear. Yeah. They're constantly leaning out, pointing a thumb at you. That's clearly an artist. Yeah. Does that help?

No, it doesn't. Did you hear my rules? If I walk over and the painting looks exactly like me, I'm gonna slap it to the ground and say, you can't have my picture like that. What if it's like a cubist or abstract, but it's clearly you? Go right ahead, baby.

That could be fucking anybody. What if it's like you, but very green? But it's clearly you, but it's green. It's like a Shrek him. Yeah. Have they, how much of my features have they accurately captured? Dead on, but it's very green.

I have no way you can't have that. What are you gonna do with that, you fucking weird beard? What if you're just one of like nine different subjects in the picture, but all share equal focus? No way. And you're just one of like nine different subjects in the picture, but all share equal focus and you're very red? He doesn't deserve that. No I can answer this. Hold on.

Let me run it through the rubric. That's probably just nine that they're going to, you know, jerk off to or whatever. Okay. What if you go over there, it's a caricature of you on a skateboard. Right. Totally shred skateboard. Right. Totally shredding. Yeah. And saying like, hang loose dude.

Do I have a shirt on? It's unbuttoned. Yeah, it's on the bubble, but go right ahead. You're in the clear. I understand why you can't mention it to somebody because if someone said this to me, I would have no problem with it. But I would immediately start posing like Helen Hunt

in As Good As It Gets, arching my back to find the sexiest way of emulating retro games on my Linux laptop. Hey, we're going to take a quick break and come back and do more goofs and jokes. We've got signed posters out in the lobby. Have a bathroom break, get whatever, and we'll be back soon. Bye.

Folks, they say that a fool and their money are often parted. And anyway, our dad has been interested in using Rocket Money to sort of square up his finances. Yeah, I've been very foolish. Very, very foolish. Griffin, give dad the URL where he can get started right now. Let's start with that, and dad can start signing up. I mean, it's rocketmoney.com slash my brother.

And then you go there and you can sign up, and it's great. Why is it? Let's act like dad's not already convinced, though, and maybe like sell him on it, or like ignore the fact that he's already convinced. Well, while he's signing up, I could tell him that it is gonna look at your spending and it's gonna highlight some places

where you could save a few bucks. One great way is subscriptions. It'll look at some subs you may have forgotten and ask if you want to keep them. They may even be able to help you cancel them or save a few bucks on them, Dad. Man, now I'm even more convinced, Justin. Okay, yeah, but hold on, Dad,

because Rocket Money's five million members have saved a total of $500 million in canceled subscription. Just to be clear, Dad, that's all of them together have saved 500 million, not each one saves 500 million. I don't want you to get confused. With each member saving up to 740 dollars a year when they use all of the apps premium features Travis Griffin I'm a little bit worried about something if the rocket money robots start climbing through dad's finances looking for quote

Unnecessary purchases. I'm afraid their little Robbo-brains might melt. That's fair. I think that the robots at Rocket Money are top of the line models. They will be able to scan his finances and help him save money, no problem. I would love, Dad, can you report back? Hopefully we'll have another Rocket Money ad at some point. Report back and tell me what crazy garbage

that thing found in your instinct. Be like our dad in this one specific way only. Cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money. Go to rocketmoney.com slash my brother today. That's rocketmoney.com slash my brother. One last time, rocketmoney.com slash my brother. Dad, how's that silent price is going?

Really good. I need whatever the code is again. Oh. Rocketmoney.com slash my brother. We just said it three times, man. Yeah, you had to have already gone to it. I type with my thumbs. I'm ignoring my dad now. Yes.

Because I also want to bring everyone's attention to the fact that it's nice outside. Especially here. We're recording this live in Anaheim. The weather! California is always like 10 degrees better than where you lived. Yeah. And I'll tell you, when the weather's nice like that, I don't want to spend all my time inside cooking. Gross.

So instead. With all the oil and all the gritty spices. I do live in an oil, Derek. That's true. And you spill the gritty spices on the floor. You walk around on the floor layer feels like sand. The spice must flow, Griffin. No way.

That's why I turned to Factor, because Factor's Chefed Crafted Meals are ready in just two minutes, taking the hassle out of eating well. Drop all the spaghetti, it goes down the air conditioning vent on the floor, you gotta fish it out. Yeah.

No way, man. That happens to me every day. Factor, Factor for me. Only Factor, I don't have to go spaghetti fishing in an air conditioning. Sometimes I accidentally throw the spaghetti. It goes in the ceiling fan. It gets everywhere. A piece of spaghetti hit my son in the eye the other day. Hey, Griffin, a lot of kids at school

told me that factor meals are just a bunch of carrots and cucumbers chopped up with ketchup mixed around together. That's so weird they said that because it's so not true. They've got 45 weekly menu options that can fit your goals, your tastes, whatever. That's what I like that. I like that. It's better that way for sure.

They've got nutritious breakfast, they got on the go lunches, premium dinners, whatever you are in the mood for, Factor's got your whole day covered. So get started at factormeals.com slash brother 50 off and use code brother 50 off. That's brother five O off to get 50% off plus free shipping on your first box.

That's code brother 50 off at factormeals.com slash brother 50 off for 50% off plus free shipping. factormeals.com slash brother50off for 50% off plus free shipping. factormeals.com slash brother50off. Oh my god, he's looping. He's trapped in the singularity. Brother50off also sounds like some kind of like weird monk character that I've written about. Yeah, sure.

I think Dad has done signing up for Rocket Money because his phone is curling into a monkey's paw. Enjoy the rest of the show, folks. There's a table and chairs set up, by trap, there's a table and chairs set up immediately behind this screen. It's where we signed some of those lovely posters earlier. And right now, right before we walked on stage, we saw that dad is sitting at one of those chairs,

literally right behind this screen just. If we seem a little on edge, that is why. Da-da-da-da-da-da-da. Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Rr-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r I want to munch.

Welcome to Munch Squad, a podcast, Profiling. The very latest and the very greatest in brand eating. I hope some folks over at Angel Stadium heard that and were like, what the fuck they got going on over there? That sounds like 5,000 people screaming squad. What's up with the giant helmets? Hey, what's up with those giant helmets? It protects their giant heads. Outside the stadium,

those are the biggest helmets I've ever seen. It's amazing. I thought that big blue horse in Denver was big, but these helmets are something else. So we're going to start a rivalry between Anaheim and Denver tonight. Yeah. Yeah. Let's get it going.

Hey folks, I don't know. You're ready to hate. You guys were too ready. You're so ready to hate Finally an excuse to hate Denver Well, I don't know if you all heard the news, but I hope you heard the news cuz snack wraps are back. I Mean they're just back brother. We're right here in the middle of snack wrap fever You didn't know it but this is a snack wrap emergency. They just came back yesterday

and America is losing its fucking mind. Wait, go back. Did that Markese snack wrap is like, you won. I love how defeated. This is how McDonald's has been messaging the snack wrap return. If you can zoom in there on the text Paul, cause it's a little difficult to,

oh, I'm wearing my glasses still sorry I Dad no up top up top dad made me feel bad about my eye And he told me to put my glasses back on at one point so I've been wearing them very Intentionally anytime he's around like and apologizing like oh, I'm sorry dad Let me put my glasses back on so you don't have to look at your son It's because he saw Superman at 9 a.m. on IMAX and it made his left eyeball explode. I'm so glad that McDonald's brought back the snack wrap because since it went away, I've been craving a chicken tender in a tortilla with a couple shreds of lettuce and some cheese and ranch

and I couldn't crack the recipe. Well, you know what's amazing is Dad was confused. He was like, wait a minute, they've had the snack grab back for a while. I was like, okay, Dad, I understand why you think that because the local affiliate, I don't think that's the term, the franchisee of McDonald's in Huntington just went absolutely loco and started their own snack grabs

a couple of years ago. They looked around and realized that Kroger would legally sell them tortillas and chicken tenders and they just fucking went for it Yeah, so I've been enjoying these bad boys for a while this the pirate radio This is the entirety of the press release by the way when they announced it the following statement was released today by Joe Erlinger president McDonald's USA in response to questions about the return of the iconic snack wrap to menus. It's back. Why are they so embarrassed of this chicken tooth? They are so mad.

And honestly, if you are surprised by this news and you do not see the writing on the wall when the crispy strip was introduced to the menu, you are high. They had all the clues they needed. They're all in front of you. So can I just say, looking at it again, I think maybe one of the reasons they're writing this from such an embarrassed kind of voice is because they realize, like my theory is that

the reason they stopped carrying snack wraps was not because they made a decision. It's like the cheapest, easiest to build ingredients ever. They forgot to like check a box on a form at a yearly meeting And it was like oh fuck how long has it been since we didn't do snack wraps fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck You can't make it blast goo like that at home man that takes special machinery So when I say America's losing its fucking mind over this beauty I mean America's losing its mind Paul I've pulled a sampling of some reactions

from across the globe. We've got media reports, we've got local testimonials, we got it all. Oh, we got a printed review here. My honest review of the stack up is not good. There was so much ranch, like a fruit gusher, but ranch. The chicken tastes like opossum legs. How specific?

By the way, my Facebook's all West Virginia people talking about it, so I may be getting some local flavor. I don't know. I was gonna say. I waited so long for this, so long. I'm sticking to Burger King's chicken wraps, all right. Are these snack wraps good or not? Cause I haven't ate McDonald's all motherfucking year. So if that go in there trash. I'm flipping everything over

That's not a review I guess We're so back woke up feeling much better today and emptier after a stomach bug Guys this is Fox 13's Regina Gonzalez Hey Regina you fucking after I blew my asshole inside out yesterday... Breaking news! Why hubs looked on. We had obviously had to commemorate this special day. SnackRaps had made a return to McDonald's.

After five years, it's been ten. Fun fact, when Spencer and I started dating, we would go on weekends. We would always make a point to grab these the other way home. Kind of feels like a wedding present from McDonald's. That is the ending of someone that forgot they started with dropping ass. Yeah. Now I also love, and sometimes punctuation could be so powerful, yeah. Kind of feels like a wedding present from McDonald's. Question mark, question mark. I don't know. I

also don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. I'm so dehydrated right now. I shit for 36 hours straight. Come on. What else? We tried the snack grab so we were highly disappointed. Three out of 10, the chicken tender was giving dinosaur tail or something.

Shit was chilly as fuck. The fuck? Dinosaur tail. Okay, y'all sitting out there judging the West Virginia person for talking about things like a bosom, like who out here is eating dinosaur tail that we don't know about? You guys have access to that here?

Fuck. Paul, can you play the today show? Yeah, okay, okay, listen. The snack wrap is back for good. And guys, look, after nearly 10 long years, we get to sink our teeth into one. Had you had one before? Oh yeah.

It's like taking a bite of nostalgia. I remember the snack wrap, but you've wolfed that round down. I used to love a snack wrap. Really? Oh my gosh. My kids are gonna be very excited. And look, it's like, I brought it back.

Although that's so sweet. It's like an I voted sticker, but it's about... What's happening? Sorry, one more time. If you could just play the last second of that. Savannah Guthrie just said, the craziest thing I've ever heard anybody say out loud.

One more time. It's the sticker is like, what, Savannah? It's like an I voted sticker, but it's headed... What? Next up. That felt like a thing from a sketch. No, it's all- Is that real?

It's all fucking real, Travis. America's losing its- A bite of nostalgia? Yeah, man. I- You haven't had chicken tenders and ranch in a decade? So, Paul, do you have the text message? Okay, so.

This is how he actually talks to us in group texts, by the way. Just, it starts with, my ass is going to Micro Center, fuck y'all, is a pretty good cross-section of how we- So you know, was in response to dad asking if Justin wanted to go to a bookstore with him. He said some mean things about my eyeball though, remember?

Yeah, yeah, sure. After you told him you were going to put his ashes in a popcorn bucket. So anyway, dad said right now, and then I was like, I don't want to go to Microsoft with dad. So I was like, just kidding, just JK, JK. And then dad's like, lol. And then Amanda says, 10 minute lift right away.

And I was excited. And then I say, y'all want any snack wraps? I'm gonna order some at 1244. At least two of the people in this chat, I signed their paychecks. See the time at the top of this, Paul? It's 2.30. It's an hour and 45 minutes later. I'm here to tell you

friends I could have screen capped it right now. Yeah. Because I still am waiting a response. I am still to this very second trying to decide what sauce I want. 12.44 to 8.55. Yep. It's okay Griffin just texted yes So I thought everybody would want some and they want to get it I'll try that wants some too He just said that it was sent to I thought everyone would want to get on the action But they didn't but that's okay because I I brought the experience to you Hi. Hi, welcome my exclusive taste test of the new return McDonald's snack wrap. I have invited some of the other brothers over and some of our other folks here, but I haven't heard back.

But I didn't want them to get cold, so I didn't think that was fair to McDonald's. So let's just get into it. I'm going to start with this one. I don't know which is which, but this one didn't fit into my pyramid I made so I wish I hadn't gotten to many Sorry, I thought I heard it on. Okay, so this is the wrap. This was mine Because there's no sauce on it. Let's give this a try and I'll try one of the ones that sauce. Did you ask for it dry? Yeah for sure man Thank you. No one needs that Thank you. No one needs that.

I'm looking for a drink. I want to get a drink. He has a dry loaf. It's up there dry. I said it on the video. It's exactly like they used to. Anybody who says differently is incorrect. I ate about 100,000 of these bad boys

back in the day, and this is what it tasted like. Just some crispy chicken in a friggin' wrap. And some bites were just tortilla, and that's the way I liked it. This was- Were these all dry? Okay, see this little spicy sauce. Sometimes I can get into like a spicy sauce,

but if they go too much with the mayo and stuff, I'm gonna bail out of that. You don't have to see that, but we're not gonna complete that bite just one second okay fuck fuck no why was that the IU clothes I'm gonna try knocking over here just to make sure you can hear it of the the two, yeah. It doesn't seem like you can hear it. Um, uh, yeah, that's spicy. Um, it's really spicy.

This is giving me powerful vibes of like a grandfather made a bunch of hamburgers for all his grandkids and they didn't show up. Uh, so I think this is... I'm ten minutes from Disneyland. Uh, it's the... I'm 10 minutes from Disneyland. I really like these snack wraps. This was a great lunch. I'm going to put these in the fridge and maybe nuke them for a post-show treat.

And I'll see if... You got some for after show? See if anyone wants to have some after the show or whatever. Yeah, man. I don't know. Whatever. I brought Mario Kart. So it's... I'll tell or whatever. Yeah, man. I don't know. I brought some, I brought Mario Kart. I'll tell you what. Yeah. Snack wraps are better after they steep.

It's true. Uh, yeah. So those will be sort of very old, uh, by the time we get to that point, but snack wraps are definitely back. And they did, it doesn't matter how they tasted it who cares but I will say the scary thing about this is and this is where it gets a little real there are there are chicken snack wrap wars that are firing up right now yeah I know it's tough Burger King it's already sort of like you make that go, sorry, Paul. OK. The face was disconcerting to have big...

It's the only human face I have. The just as a reminder, when everybody uses my face as a punchline, it is still the only one that I do possess. I don't want to put the sunglasses back on, but I will if I have to. The thing was, I was singing karaoke, and I did fancy so hard that I blew up my eyeball. That's what happened. That's the real truth.

OK. That's the first time he said it publicly. Folks, you know what it's like for Griffin and I to know that that's what happened. That's what happened. That he sang Reema McIntyre's fancy so hard, he burst a blood vessel in his eyeball. I did not say-

So when you all claimed Griffin and I, or Justin and I, or all three of us don't like each other, remember that Griffin and I knew that Justin sang karaoke so hard, he popped a blood vessel in his eyeball, and we didn't say it, cause we love him! Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. It was, it was submitted for me. That's not really my song anymore. In my 30s, I could hit those notes, but not in my 40s. I do something in red now by Laurie Morgan. Yeah.

But I knew I was going to hurt myself and somebody submitted fancy for me and I gave it the old college try and I blew up my goddamn eyeball. There is, sorry, there is the risk of the chicken snack wrap wars firing up. The most troubling, fuck, the most troubling salvo came from, came from Popeyes. I really hope there will be a rest of this show, but I may want to

watch this video 18,000 times if I watch it one more. Whenever you're ready, Paul. The snack wrap is back at McDonald's, but Popeyes is countering with its own wrap. Oh, beef. Shit, man. What? Oh, my, the fast food chain dropped this AI generated diss track yesterday with the caption,

to all the clowns in the kitchen, it's time to put down the chicken. Wow. It also has a creepy AI version of Ronald McDonald that you saw there not too long ago who appears to be losing his mind. Oh, there he is again. That's quite terrifying.

Yeah. What, a kangaroo? What's the kangaroo doing there? An alien. That's quite terrifying. Yeah I'm a kangaroo. What's the kangaroo doing there? They're speechless probably why they ran this when she wasn't here that's got a thing clever, dude Probably why they ran this when she wasn't here. That is clever, dude. I'm her fan. You really liked it. That's crazy.

Their chicken Sammy over there is pretty good at Popeyes. Yeah. Ranked what, number five? I think number five yesterday. Yeah, we talked about that yesterday. What is happening? But he was number one. Chick-fil-A. Chick-fil-A.

Chick-fil-A. No surprises. Fucking cool, man. So the chicken Sager Wars are fully on. Thank you to everyone. I would have told you that was a promo for Twisted Metal. Yeah. So thank you to McDonald's and thank you to everyone in the Munch Squad. I appreciate you. Thank you. We...

We are going to turn it over to you all. We've asked you to send in your questions. We're going to call some people down to this microphone here. It's House Center right in front of us. Apologize to the people sitting next to the microphone. You're just, you're co-stars now. Welcome to the podcast. We are gonna call some people down to the microphone and we're gonna answer your questions.

Please don't come down to the microphone if we don't call you. So- Unless you have like a real- No, fucking don't. Fucking don't. Don't put that out there, dude. Before we start, we do,

we have started to knock out some quick ones in like rapid succession. And we did receive one message from Jeremy and Rebecca who brought us a special present. If Justin, you want to walk in what we've got. Yeah, they brought us a box of Progresso soup drops. Formerly featured. The soup you can suck on.

Formerly featured in the Munch Squad. This is an unopened tin of soup drops. Of course it is. If it wasn't unopened, we would not even try eating it. Nice try. This is the on-the-go chicken noodle flavor. Open it, open it on mic. Grip it and rip it.

Crack that fucking shit. Oh my God! Wait, wait, wait. Yeah, dude. How many are in there? Looks like three. Plenty. Okay, cool. Yeah, dude. How many are in there? Looks like three. Plenty. Okay, cool.

I don't actually want to do it. I'll do the talking while you all do the sucking. No, you will. All right, cool. Coward. Okay, so, cheers? Cheers, yeah. Cheers, Justin.

For Paul and Amanda. Oh, wait for one, Rachel, too. Boop. So, one for Dad. Give one to Dad. One for Dad and for Shannon. Okay, so I'm not going to throw anymore because they're probably going to break. Cheers. Okay, so, one for Paul and Amanda. Oh, wait for Rachel too. Give one to dad and for

Shannon. Okay so I'm not gonna throw anymore because they're probably gonna break. Cheers. Cheers everyone. We're not gonna make any sucking noises on the microphone. I'll leave the stage. Here we go. That sucks. Instantly. It sucks right away. Instantly so regret it so hard it's not sweet at all. There's no sweetness. There's no sweetness. It's... It fucking sucks. It sucks.

You could get someone so good by giving it to them and saying it's like a butterscotch. This is the lowest... I don't... My mouth doesn't want it in it. I'm out, dude, I'm out, I'm out, I'm cashed. I'm out, I'm out, I'm out, I'm out, I'm about. I honestly thought you might have thrown up. That's so fucking gross.

That's grosser than you would even think it is. You would think it's like doing a bouillon hard candy. Every time we do one of these, it's always like, that kinda sucks. It doesn't, it doesn't fuck at all. No, the back of my throat wanted to throw up this sucks. It still sucks It's not even in my mouth anymore, but it is in my mouth forever like a ghost like a ghost It is haunting my palate get it out if dad put one of those in his mouth haven't speeded away from dad

Paul get it away from my dad There's still popcorn in the tan. we can't put him in yet. Might be a little popcorn in the tin. No! Hey, if anybody has an extra dad. Real quick, Mikey C asks, can we vape? No. No. No, you shouldn't do that in here.

Not here or, I don't know, maybe anywhere. Where the science is out. We'll see if this one you know pans out but Becca you gotta take a cleansing breath or two because otherwise we're gonna struggle for the rest of the shows. That was the grossest thing I've literally ever put my mouth. It is the I live a pretty easy life at this point it's 2025 you know what I mean I don't have a lot of mastodons but it was a real threat warning from my body that there was a serious, a serious situation. I was trying to be contrarian of like, not so bad. No.

And my, my, my immuno system was like, get it out. It tasted like a cat food smells. Pretty much exactly. Becca R sent in a message that said, I have a jacket from the crew of the OC, does Griffin want it? Like fucking yeah. Do you have it with you or is this a yes?

Do you have it with you or is this a yeah? Yeah. Thank you so much. Oh wait, here comes the spot. Oh man. Fuck, I've never been jealous of you before ever. Oh wait, here comes the spot. Oh man. Fuck, I've never been jealous of you before ever. I've wondered what it would feel like. I'm experiencing it now.

You have something I want. We should switch. Fucking rules, it smells like Peter Gallagher was close to it. Thank you so much. What an amazing gift. Hello. Hello.

How's it going? My name's Emily, is she her? And I don't know which question that you so much. What an amazing gift. Hello. Hello. How's it going? My name's Emily. She hurt and I don't know which question that you asked. You asked a question about a pig that we were so delighted by. I wanna know how I can sneak a pig into my wedding. My venue won't allow it and I'm desperate for it to be like the ring bearer.

Emily. and I'm desperate for it to be like the ring bearer. Emily, so rarely are the questions we get to end so deliciously farcical. And I'm excited to tackle this one. Yeah. Do they have a specific like airbud inspired rule that says like no pigs as ring bearers? Specifically. I mean, I am assuming they won't let me have a pig.

It's a nice yacht club and it's inside, it's not outside on the grass. So I'm just thinking maybe we can bring it in with some of the rentals. But is it on a boat? No. Good. You can't put a pig on a boat? That's fucking crazy.

That's also bad luck. That's bad luck to get a pig on a boat. That's fucking crazy. That's also bad luck. That's bad luck to get a pig on a boat. They'll get so scared. Are you going to have, like, a crew of people setting up, like, the wedding? My family. Okay. Could you dress the pig like a member of your family? I could see the resemblance. That's not...

Emily. That's not what I was saying. Don't you put words in my mouth. This you could say, now I know that's a pig, but he is the florist and he will depart before the ceremony begins. You don't have to worry about him. And then once the ceremony begins,

you put him into a different outfit that makes him look like a guest. And I don't think this is helping you, but a badge is helping me a great deal. You know one thing you could- Oh he's a little chef now in my age. I have rules! That's great actually. We cannot make enough, we cannot make enough beignets for the crowd.

Does anybody know how to cook beignets? Yeah, that's cool. A power that you can wield, and this is not based on fact, but rather old school beliefs of a thing. Just say, yeah, I know we shouldn't have a big, but it's a favorite of my mother-in-law. That's all, man. One thing that wedding venues are never, ever, ever, ever

going to do is during your wedding be like Stop the wedding everyone stop the wedding. They won't have the guts they can get mad afterwards if they want you just be like fine I'll never get married here again. Yeah, if I may One piece of feedback is that if you are going to attach your incredibly precious wedding rings to an animal, maybe don't do it on the one that famously people compete to try to catch at county fairs and stuff. This is an excellent point. How have you sourced this pig?

Yeah. There's livestock rental companies that will like bring petting zoos to you. So it's not like a pig. It's not like your pig. It's not my pig. I can't get married without my pig. Is this a childhood dream you're fulfilling? What's happening?

Are you telling me it's just some pig? It's just some pig. We try to have fun, you know. You only go around once in a spiritual globe. When you picture your wedding, right, what you see is this venue, whatever dress you're going to wear or outfit you're going to wear, your partner up there and non-negotiables, the pig carrying the rings down the aisle. That's just part of it.

Or walking the pig down with me. Well yeah, I assume there would need to be some chaperoning of the pig. Well, and some of the- I love the idea that there's a betting zoo pig who on the day is gonna be like, no, no, no, I get it. Trust me. All right, you put the rings on my back, I walk down there and you take them off.

I turn around, maybe I throw some flowers out if you want. That costs extra, but that's okay. And then I head back and open bar, I'm assuming. All these flower petals just scattered around. Are those free game or were you guys planning on eating those? You guys aren't gonna eat me during the, no, that's just a joke that I tell. I've done this a hundred times.

I was about to ask you to sit down in a very nice way that we do it. You'll know it when it happens. But before we do that, I did want to say earlier, when I said that they're not gonna stop your wedding, I don't know that that's true. I've been sitting up here thinking about it and like, I just fucking said that, I don't know.

And if they like did stop it, I would just feel terrible about it. So I don't know. I don't have like a better answer, but it's like, don't do that and count on that being accurate. No, but it would be wild to say like, and if anyone objects to this wedding, speak now.

Yeah, yes, what is it? I don't mind actually the union, but they shouldn't have pigs in here. Yeah, so gross. Wait a minute, you're right. Can you make the pig look like it ran in off the street? That's not, he's not supposed to. Oh no, but the rings fell on him.

Oh, maybe make him look like he's wearing like a striped jumpsuit like he escaped from prison. That's cool, yeah. And he stole those rings. Yeah. Does that help? That's so helpful, thank you. Thank you so much, Emily. What a wonderful little play space to play in. Look at them.

Oh my god, yeah, if you have two pigs, they gotta say yes. You get two pigs married. Especially if you have the pigs walking down the aisle and say, I was adopted. Hello. Hello, I'm Caitlin. Hi, Caitlin. I'm a scare actor at a theme park in the area.

Okay. Do you ever say scare-actor? Scare actor? Scare actor. Scare actor say Scarecter? Scarecter? Sorry? Scarecter. Scarecter? Scarecter. Sorry. No, while we're asking.

But do you, sorry. Shut up. Everyone but me and her, shut up. Scarecter. A Scarecter. Yeah, okay, good. All right, we got it. All right, Scarecter.

Can I tell you? I thought that's what you said. I wanted to make sure you said Scarecter. You also extremely answered his question by doing that. In wanted to make sure you said Scarecter. You also extremely answered his question by doing that. In a rare moment, you said Scarecter, my brain went, ask if they ever say Scarecter. And I thought, that's too dumb. And then Justin said it,

and it was one of the most validating moments in my adult life. The ideas will hop like fleas between us. That's how big magic works. Sometimes they land on me and they were supposed to go to him. You never know, right? So how can we help?

I love scare acting. I think I'm pretty good at it. But I am a bit of a scaredy cat, personally. You get it, tell you now. When I walk to my lunges, there are guests who will try to scare me. And it's pretty effective. I try to stay in character as much as I can, but I'm wondering if a guest does scare me.

How should I retaliate while remaining in character? Kaitlyn. Okay. Is there a way, I don't want you to tell us what character you play. It's impossible for us to do this without knowing it. I know, but I need you to in a non-legally binding way, tell me what character you play. A demon clown? OK, yeah, that does.

Yeah, OK, that narrows it down. So this is a clown. Sorry, were you a demon first who became a clown or a clown first who became a demon? A clown who became a demon. Yeah, it doesn't go the other way. There's not a demon like, it's my calling. OK, what?

No, sorry, Griffin. What's fucking wilder? A demon who started as a demon and said, you know what, I'd love to be a clown or a clown that during life, Lucifer went, you know what, kid, you've got to. I'm changing you. What kid you've gotta changing you What if you look at the person and say finally there's someone to scare pack Liopsy That's good. Yeah, have a complete fucking mental collapse right there on the boardwalk or whatever No, see because pack Liopsy was a clown, right? But there was nobody that could he told the doctor

He goes to the doctor. The doctor, and the doctor says, you should go see this clown, Pagliacci. He says, but doctor, I am Pagliacci. No, no, no, he goes to the back. He was sad, right? So he was sad, and he was a clown. Did I say he was a clown?

And he's sitting there in clown makeup, which makes it so weird that the doctor brought it up. I think if they scare you, you should run as fast as you can, because that is always very funny, but also kind of disconcerting the longer it goes on. Because I would laugh at first, but then the longer you ran,

I'd be like, wow, they're really committing to it. I will say I worked as a scare character, and that's what we call it, for a while at a couple different places. And the thing that always struck me is the people who wanted to, one, show me how unscared they were of the haunted house, and two, try to scare me back.

And all I can think is like, we both know what's going on. You bought a ticket. I'm getting- It's your 1999 pal. I'm getting paid to be here. You paid to be here. Which one's scarier? The difference between you and me, I think, is that if that happened to me, the need to piss would immediately disappear.

And all I would think of is how I was going to scare this person back so fucking hard they wouldn't even know. I would start following them around the park and wait till they're most vulnerable. I mean, by themselves in the dark. Follow them home. Wait till they're in the toilet and then stand outside and be like, ooh, nasty. Why you've been like doxing them on social media? I bet your mom Karen is disappointed in you, Doug. Yeah, it's scary, isn't it, grandma?

It's an escalation. The lengths that they're willing to go to, does that help? It helps. Thank you, Caitlin. Thank you. Can we... Yeah, this is great. Yeah, come on down.

Hi, I'm Dominic. He, him. Hi, Travis. Hi, Dominic. How are you? Good. How you doing? I'm doing great, man.

It's good to see you. Yeah, good to see you. Hi. Hi. Hi. Okay, so my parents haven't bought any new towels for about 30 years. Yes. Okay, yes.

Yes. It got to the point where I was dreading going home because I had to dry myself with this sandpaper. Yeah. So for the last four years, I've been smuggling new towels into their house and hiding the old ones in like little, like cachets around the house. Yeah, insulation. But I'm getting concerned that if I don't, like,

empty the cachets soon, they're going to be found and put back in circulation. Right. Dominic, can I ask a question? In your own home, how particular are you about towels? Are you, do you feel that your parents' position on towels has created in you a need to have the finer towels in your home?

There are a few things more important to me at this point. Yeah. Okay, so, okay, Dominic, this is what I suggest. As suspected this, our parents were fucking towel Degenerates our mom bought I think my mom our mom bought 30 towels the day I was born and never bought another fucking one as far as I do think when I went to college in Oklahoma Like 2,000 miles away from West Virginia. I took a pre-existing towel Yeah, I don't think new towels were all reason Griffin looked at me confused is because he didn't use a new towel

until he was 23 years old. He didn't even know that was a possibility. He didn't even know you had the option. In my home, I have two different kinds of towels. They're the ones that I use and the ones that anybody who isn't me or married to me uses. And if the ones that aren't the ones that get used by me

or the people married to me uses, you know, the good towels, if they end up in the wrong drawers, which confusingly, the other half of the team who benefits from this arrangement often is the one messing it up. And it's like, hey, Sydney, do you not care about which towels you use? She's like, go away, you know, whatever. I'm a doctor. I'm busy saving one. So I think it creates in you a scarcity mindset.

In my home, the towels that touch mine and my wife's body get rolled up. Other towels get folded. That's the difference. Good towels. Like, we know, like, oh, these are the towels that deserve Travis. Yeah. When we've when we've. God, I wish that wasn't true. I know, but it is. And we've, when we've. God, I wish that wasn't true. I know, but it is and we're really being very vulnerable. You two are being so weirdly vulnerable.

Also, most of the towels that touch my body have purple streaks across them. It's true. As you can indicate, like, these are marked. It looks like all of Travis's towels look like they just cleaned up Grimace's sex mess. That's the color of my hair dye! Yeah! So what I would start with, Dominic, is towels are hard to throw away because when you throw them away it will fill up a whole trash can and it will be very

obvious that you've thrown away a towel. I think you got to start with hand towels. You cut it in half, you got two hand towels. Excellent. Do it again. Washcloths. Hmm. Might throw away a washcloth. This one's looking... Do it again! Postage stamps. Yes. Eventually, you cut it up enough times you can make jeans. You just grind it down the dental. How many towels are we talking about, Dominic? At least 20 to 30. 20 to 30.

They kept buying new ones for like 10 years or so. Oh, so they bought new and thinking rare old ones? Yeah, so there was some like slightly increasing towel quality, but after like 10 years. Can I ask, how wet are your parents getting? Because it's, 20 to 30 is pretty, oh. Is that all of them? It's beyond science at this point.

Okay, so, okay, okay. Dominic, are you ready for this? Yeah. They're saving those towels for when there's a big mess that needs cleaned up that will ruin towels. Yeah. And they're like, well, those are scrap towels that we won't feel bad cleaning up this thing.

Yes. You must create within the house that thing that ruins the towels so bad that they can't be washed. The big one, Dominic, the big one, the big spill. The big spill they've all been waiting for. I'm glad you said spill and not anything more human. No, no. The big spill.

Hey, I'm not gonna box you in. No, no, no. This is your art form to create. Because if I tell you what it is, they've probably already thought about it. You're going to generate the next iteration of mess. Yeah, good luck. A mess no one's ever thought of or braced themselves for.

Yeah, show me an AI that can make that kind of mess. No way. Does that help? Oh, you nailed it. Thank you so much, Dominic. And thank you all. Thank you. Hey folks, thank you all so much for coming here
