Don't sleep on this one, especially not with special sleep gel on your head. We've got a giant quesadilla full of advice about not-so-hot pizza, ransoming your family from bears, and sudden revelations about the Steve Miller Band.Suggested talking points: Seven Sleepy Samurai, Neither Hot Nor Ready, Rupture Your Flesh Prison, Trade Up to a Broken House, A Bear Has My FamilyImmigrant 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 mention only so the babies out there will know how cool they are for listening. What's up, you cool, baby? It's the start of something's rapping into a precious friendship. It feels love. Hello. And welcome to my brother, my brother, me

and advice you for the modern era. I'm your oldest brother, Justin McElroy. Travis, do you like the most sort of genial welcoming, like welcome to my cabin style. Oh, didn't see you come in there. Come in, have a seat, traveler. Sit by the fire, warm yourself. What's up, Trave nation?

It is I. Time out. Time out. Time out on this. This wasn't my... Travelers. Did you ever think about that? Like, Trave nation is good, but like...

It sounds like... Travelers. That's what our... You said, travelers. I felt. the capital trav in my head. I heard the capital. Yeah, when we send them out into the world,

our dignitaries, our ambassadors, ambassadors, that's what I was looking for. They're travelers. Anyways, What's our travel? I gotta finish. I gotta say the whole thing.

What's our Travations to me? Ramalus by the Travis, Big Dog, Wolf Wolf, Vroom, Vroom, the Rocket, Macaroy. Thank you. Welcome travelers to mine head. Superbemine, cauldron's, bubbling engines.

and feast upon my fatted goose I'm griffed backeroy That was my take on What you've set up is a trap Hold on no no no let's get to the bottom of what Travis just said Because I'm worried that there's a little bit of hate behind it Why do you think that's a trap Travis? I'm just saying that if I

You said a cave I believe Anyone with a I didn't say cave No I didn't say cave but your mind filled in cave Because you heard Unchanceance and you heard fatted goose And you thought this must be some sort of nasty witch or witch or warlock. And I think that sucks, dude. No. I've noticed over our decades of creating the highest quality digital entertainment that if there is one character archetype that really gets the three of us, gets our rocks hard,

it's being able to do a nasty merchant. We love that. Yeah. We love like a globular, like lots of like pus in the throat. Sick. Yeah, yeah. Welcome, traveler. You've got a lot of wonderful goods. I hear your bag jingling with gold. Many beautiful coins to race my poem. I think the new Resident Evil game, they should get rid of the zombies entirely. Or the movie that's coming out that's going to beat absolute ass Zach Craigers's Resident Evil. They're letting them do a good one.

They're letting them do a good one. Get rid of zombies. Now the Umbrella Corporation has invented the M virus and it turns you into the nasty merchant from Resident Evil 4. So it's just you, and it's a bunch of dudes coming at you with fucking deals on 9mm ammunition. Occasionally, you're running to the Duke from Resident Evil Village, and he's like, I don't know about those guys. I don't know those dudes. I'm not with them. They're not with me.

I'm not with them. If the Duke at any point had been like, Justin, do you want to go? Do you want to get out of here? Let's go. It kind of sucks here, I've noticed. This sucks sucks here, dude. Look at these guys. Look behind you.

There's another guy. It's going to kill you. Let's get out of here. There's like a werewolf man. There's some kind of hairy giant who's angry. I've seen a few of these, and Jean-Claude Van Damme's going to show up at the end, and his arm's going to be a tentacle, and he's going to kill you on top of a volcano. So we should just fucking beat cheeks, dude.

I can buy you a new baby. I don't want to tell you my source or nothing, but I know where to get a baby. Yeah. For sure. You keep coming back. and buying green herbs. Just go. Just go.

Get out of it. Or you want some better green herb? Wink, wink, wink. Talk about you a green herb. Guys, I want to congratulate us. I got the criterion inception in here. Let's go. How was nobody ever made a joke about how in Resident Evil, the green herb you

yourself with is like a weed joke. It's crazy. Nobody's ever thought about it. I need to get on tea fury right now. Just start trademark and stuff. You know what I mean? Like the podcast. We don't trademark enough.

of our joke. Like we trademark our great ideas. I hold many trademarks and patents, but we never do jokes like the one where in Resident Evil, it's like you heal yourself with like marijuana leaf, a marijuana plant. That's ours. Yeah, man. I was thinking about how this show, we started in 2010. And so this is, this will be our 16th year of excellence. I was thinking about, and this may be something we'd have to source with our listeners, but there's got to be some more superlatives that we could attach to ourselves at this point, right? Like, my brother, my brother, me the podcast has to at least be the longest running podcast hosted by brothers.

Like, is at least that? I'm, is it, like, the most that a brother podcast is gone or something? Like, I just feel like at our age, we should be able to, like, spin the numbers into a superlative that would, like, be impressive, more impressive than what we have now. Most nominated for, uh, Iheart radio. That's good. Best AdWat. Without winning.

I mean, fuck that, man. As long as we've been around, I'm pretty sure we've been nominated for Best Ad Reads for the IHeart Radio Podcast Awards every single year. So if you strip away all of that sort of like specificity, we might be the most nominated podcast from the IHeart Radio Podcast Awards. Or is it IHeart Media now? They've changed it a couple times.

Yeah, I heart podcast. I didn't realize they gave a Golden Globe for Best Podcast until, Like today? Oh, we don't. We weren't even nominated. We didn't. I didn't. That didn't cross my desk, unfortunately.

Yeah. We didn't. Maybe next year. Maybe golden. I didn't see who won, but congratulations to Dax Shepard. I'm sure. Dax has got a big. No.

I think they should just do a best ad reads category at the Golden Globes. We wouldn't win that one either, but we might get nominated. No, but it would be great to be a Golden Globe nominated pot. Yeah. Yeah. But just to hear Mahershala Ali say. My brother, my brother, me out loud would be worth it. Just to get the nomination.

You could probably cut clips together from Herschel Ali's work in the past to make it sound like he said. My brother. My brother. And me. Trave, I almost asked you about this before the show, but then I realized it would be better to hear about during the show because I'm really curious. You did a sleep study. I did. How did I go?

Did you do a good job? Did you get some disease? I don't think I did. So the thing was, Teresa asked me this morning. She was like, what was it like? Where did you go? Wait, how did Teresa see you? Were you not in a lab?

This is the weirdest thing. My appointment was from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. So I got there at 8 p.m. at like 9.15, they're like, go to bed. We'll wake you up at 5.30. I was like, what is it? So you got a bet. I've never done this or seen it or know anything about it. I assumed it was sort of like a back to a tank.

Like you're in like Dr. Light's special cyber pod or something like that. And they just like got your, your stats up. The most surreal thing about the experience is that it was like almost. Like if you know about liminal spaces,

it had that feeling of like, this is almost a hotel room. This is almost a bed. This is almost a blanket. The pillows were like crinkly plastic. Yeah. I guess so they don't have to wear it. So it's like,

yeah, this is what we think a pillow that humans would use, right? Like it would have this feeling of like this is. Like those people are also going home at night and getting into bedrooms. They don't know what a bed looks like. Like you know this is it. Everyone is sleeping in these things.

It doesn't have to be a special science with. The blanket was like the idea of a blanket, but it provided no comfort or warmth. Yeah. They, I at one point. What level of sleep paraphernalia were you allowed to bring in? Thank you for asking. I was not allowed to bring my own pillows. I was not allowed to bring my own blanket.

I even brought a purple pillowcase so that I did not ruin one of their pillows, and they were like, no, you can't use that. You have to use our pillowcases. What are they going to learn from me not sleeping all night long and just tossing and turning? I don't know. And thinking about dying. Like, what, how'd your study go? If you remove one of Justin's totems, the whole thing absolutely collapses. It was wild.

You're going to fail this test. I'm going to fail. I can't sleep without all my different sleep gyms. I need them. It felt like. I was putting them together last night and said, you're assembling your seven samurai. Yes, yes, my seven sleepy samurai. We're getting all together.

This felt like if I was taking like the practical driver's exam. Yeah. And then right before the test started, they were like, oh, and by the way, we changed all the controls around so the buttons don't do what you think they do. Have fun because they like hook me out to all these things. There's like, there's, there were some things on my chin and my like temples, right? and a hose that went like with two prongs up my nose. And it all connected in the back with one of those like sleeves, like one might use for cable management at their desk.

Cool. And there were like things running down and they're like, okay, if one of these becomes disconnected in the night, it'll show up like on our system and we'll come in and fix it. Great. While I'm asleep. Yeah, they must be very sneaky. And so I lay down and suddenly I'm,

super aware of my matrix like tethers holding me to this bed. And that's suddenly all I can think about is like, how do I not knock these off? How do I do this? As a result of the study, did they figure out why you dream about kissing Santa Claus every single night? They actually said that's normal. They said it's weird if you don't dream about kissing Santa Claus every night. Do they film, my understanding is they film the dreams, that you're having on a big screen

that they watch inside the lab, is that? That is correct. And they come out as orbs, and some of the orbs are red. And you, when you... Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What come out as or off the... The dream movies.

Yeah. They record during the, when they have you... You haven't had a sleep study, Justin, so... It's not a monitor that they're watching on the screen. The orbs that are red. It starts on a monitor. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. And if it's a good one, they hit record.

And they actually... They harvest a dream in a sphere. And you do... not have to sign a special release before they're allowed to watch the red orbs. Yeah. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is there and he says, hit record and you hit record. Yeah. Joseph Gordon-Levett lives exclusively inside my red orbs.

He's in there and he's stepping. He's stepping. Well, he did Inception and he was like, I think I figured out this dream stuff. Yeah. And he set this all up. It was incredible. And when the night was done and they woke me up at 5.30 in the goddamn morning, like a normal person wakes up.

They said, we're going to need you to come back tomorrow because you woke up in the middle of a really great dream and we need to see how it ends. Cool. So I got to go back tonight so they could finish the dream. They kicked me out with paste on my face and in my hair. And they were like, don't run your hand through your hair, your face or whatever, go home and take a shower.

And I was like, okay, so I got home. Hold on, wait. Why was the sleep gel? They applied to you bad for you to touch with your hand, but okay for you to touch with your delicate face skin. No, I think mostly they didn't want me to get on Coupe on my hand because I had to drive home. Did you drove yourself home? Yeah, what do you think I was good to make my wife?

No, I was just thinking about the like, I bet that was a chilly little stroll home. It wasn't great. It was a morning, pretty cold outside. Yeah, it was like pretty tired. And it was like, okay, now go home after your alien examination one night stand where they kicked you out at 5.30 in the morning and said like, all right. Bye. Honestly, I'm surprised you. I'd be tired if I was.

I'm so tired, Dustin. I mean, that's Travis's secret. He's always tired. I am. They asked, I had to do an intake form and they asked, were you sleepy at any point in the day? When? And I wrote, yeah.

Yeah. From the moment I woke up till now. Did you try to sleep bad at the night before? Like the night before, did you try to wake up earlier or something? No, but I wasn't allowed to now. I wasn't allowed to nap. What? And I love a nap.

I take a nap every day. And I also wasn't allowed to have any caffeinated beverages within six hours. hours of the appointment, which is 8 p.m. And I normally don't, but the second I read that on the form, I was like, well, that's all I want right now. Yeah, I couldn't have red food coloring for 24 hours before my colonoscopy. That's freaking, all I could think about is slamming a fruit punch. I see. It's all I wanted. The worst part was, then I woke up, right? I didn't sleep. I woke up every 90 minutes. So wait, this was all a dream. None of this happened. That's the ultimate experience. What a waste of time, Tram. Thanks. Anyway, let's do our first question. I woke up.

every 90 minutes, right? I guess when my sleep cycle ended or whatever, wake up, oh, I'm still here, turn over, right? Like five times. And I woke up in the morning and I was like, this, listen, I don't always sleep great. That's why I'm here. I don't think that was indicative.

Yeah, I can do so much better than that. Yeah. I know, I did have that feeling of like, that's, hey, that wasn't my best. I could do this again. Let me take another run at it. You guys come to my house this time. I'll set up some comfort.

chairs next to the bed. You just watch me this time. Maybe that you could come to their house. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, if it has to be all sciencey and stuff, go to the scientist's house. Let me see how you usually if you're so good at it. That's only fair. I want to give Justin's... Yeah, right? I'm going to give Justin a huge special thanks for Christmas. He got Henry the Nintendo Alarmo, which is Mario's... Oh, wait. Is this a sarcastic one or real? I mean, it's very cool. He loves it a whole lot. So, I mean, kudos for that. I will say... That's great. He sets it at 6. At 6.30 in the morning.

and he often wakes up before that. And so when he does that, he's not there to press the button on top of Mario's alarm clock to make the sound stop coming out of it. And the sound that he does have coming out of it is the music that plays in Breath of the Wild when a guardian spots you and starts targeting you with its laser blast. That'll get you going. Yeah, it'll get you going when you hear it down the hallway at 635 in the morning because your son is in dereliction of this duty. Your son's in danger.

I'm asleep and I hear, boom, bab, bab, bum, da, da, da, da, da, da. When you press it, it does make the bomb noise, though, and that's pretty cool. I mean, so that I do like. That got you going probably, I bet, though, right? Like, that definitely worked. I maybe don't want to get going. Sometimes I want to celebrate the extra 20 to 25 minutes of sleep that I get past them, but not when the Guardian strikes. That's only in the morning.

You're supposed to be up making breakfast or something. Yeah, come on, man. This is an advice show, and I'd love to ask you guys a question for my listeners and get your take. I work at a pizza eatery. that's okay I work at a pizza what did you have wrong with that it just I don't

I don't like no one's ever said that because that sounds like a place where people pay to watch you eat pizza okay it just felt weird I work at a pizza place I don't know pizza place but they knew if we said that

then we would make a joke about the two guys in a girl on pizza place well they cut the pizza place are people running that level of calculation like every word choice we've been doing this for 16 years people know our fucking people know how to talk to us

they know the right and wrong way to talk to us at this point. By season two of that show, they'd remove pizza place from the title. It's just called Two Guys and a Girl. And see, they knew that we would say that, because we've said that a hundred thousand times. And so, like, they were just trying to be thoughtful. I work at a pizza place, which due to the rate of which we go through pizzas often ends up accumulating a bunch of old stale pizza in the back throughout the day.

I'm usually the one who has to carry them all to the dumpster, but it's not uncommon for passerby to ask me, since I've just thrown away, could they get a slice or two? Not only is the sight of me hoisting these pies getting their hopes up, but I have to be the one and let them down easy. What's the best way that I can let any prying eyes know that despite pristine packaging, the pizza inside is actually gray and gross. That's from Pizza Caesar in Byron Center.

Thank you. Your name does help to answer this question. Yes. Yes. Yes, thank you. Yes, that changes some of my recommendations. Why are we talking about it? If you have them ready and hot, I'm saying, okay.

Oh. These are no longer, you have to, after hot, they are no longer ready. And I don't know what comes after ready, you know, but it's not edible. It's not eddy. Yeah, those two are not mutually exclusive. Or they are mutually.

If they're not hot, they're not ready. And if they're not ready, they're not hot. You know what I mean? You couldn't be like, here's a hot pizza. It's not ready. I wonder if there's a way to, how like when you have bananas in the home and they get too old.

they start to turn brown and you think, no worries, friends, you will become soldiers in the fight for banana bread. Thank you so much. And sometimes you'll buy bananas and just let them get nasty because you want that banana bread so bad. There's got to be a way to repurpose old hot and readies.

To like... How old zone? Yeah. You just fold it over a seal of goodness inside. I don't think, I don't know that that's going to get it back in the food save zone. I was more thinking like you dehydrate it,

grind it down, turned it into some sort of powder than you mix in with some sort of dough and you make another pizza. I will say, Gryffin, if you could grind it down in capsule form, I think that would actually save me a ton of time on pizza consumption. And chewing. Because I live a really busy life.

You know, I can't, I'm always grinding, and I don't have time to sit down and slop a slice all the time. So if I had maybe like two or three capsules. Two to three. Oh, Justin, don't have three. That's your whole day, man. You're going to be so sluggish and fired after three pizza capsule. Yeah. Yeah, just three capsules.

If I could have that and it would give me all the nutrient energy of pizza and all the joy of pizza. Well, it wouldn't be hot at that point. It'd be round and ready. That's us, baby. It'll be round and swallowable.

Round and swallowable ready. Pop it in. Papa John, let's roll. Yeah, I just need a Papa John real quick. Papa John don't have the pizza pill. Papa John doesn't have time to make the pizza pill. Papa John's too busy reacting to other company's advertisements for their food

on TikTok and Instagram. The absolute mad lad. Just fucking 15 second videos of him looking at the new double down at KFC like these guys are crazy. Thanks, Papa. Thanks for weighing in, Papa. Papa.

He's... I'm sorry. Thank you for weighing in, Papa John anymore. I'm insistent on this. If the restaurant is still called Papa John's after he left in disgrace, he cannot meet Papa John after that. It's Mr. Shatner. He's no longer hot.

He's no longer ready. He's William Shatner. He was never either of those. He was neither hot. I know. He's not hot. He's not ready. He's just Mr. Shatner.

I can't stop thinking about the new internet craze where people are worried about like they're mostly, let's be honest, their young son's becoming pizza pills. Yes. Yeah. I just keep thinking that maybe somehow we have started that just now in this moment. We got to reach that generation. Yeah. Oh.

That's probably it. Why aren't they refrigerating the pizzas? They're not hot. They're not hot at that point. I do think that if you interrupt the hotness and the readiness process at any point, you can't, like, start it back up again. I'm just saying, does Little Caesars say after, we don't know it's Little Caesars? Let's be careful here. It's definitely little Cesar's, but like, let's be, let's hedge it.

But let's be careful. If it's no longer, it's been hot and ready, all right, it's been hot and ready for, let's say, two hours, okay? It comes out of the hot and ready stabilizer. Uh-huh. So then it's sitting. At that point, you could say, we're not selling this to our customers. but it's still between you and me

and the Little Caesar it's pretty delicious still why not take it out at that point and just wander up and down the alley open box because Little Caesar

doesn't want you to the rule has to be take it out of warmer sit it on the counter watch it die and then take it out because like otherwise margins

you know they're losing yeah I mean food waste is obviously an enormous problem I do think that there's a way that we can make this

perhaps a community responsibility where when one of these gray old pizzas dies, you take it outside and you have a little pile. The pile is outside of the store and then that way the foot traffic that walks by, they're going to see all of these wasted hot and readdies, no longer hot, no longer ready,

and say, God damn it, it's our fault that it got this bad. They do not make these things to order. They have them ready to shoot at us from a pizza cannon. They need us in and out the door within 55 seconds. That is their mission statement. And it is our fault that we're not buying. these pizzas, that's why the stack is getting so gosh darn big. Let's have a hot and ready tonight. Well, but then you would need an agreement from whoever this may be that when they've sold all the hot and

readdies, they don't make more or else it's going to be a cyclical issue. No, that's right. Well, you know, they make 40. They sell 40. They're like, oh, tomorrow we should make 50. Yeah. Do you want to be the hero of your town? Yeah. No, I'm talking to the, oh. The question is. Do you want to be a hero of your town? everybody hates rats right they're gross a cure disease I hate them a lot

I think they're scary right everybody hates rats but the problem is rats during everybody's houses they're in the sewers what if what if any rats I don't have rats

in my house dude I live in our nation's capital I don't have any rats in my house thank you I have cherry blossom trees in my house you might have one rat in the White House

yeah just one Oh. This one. It's so weird. Justin likes a lot of the people in the cabinet. The head honcho Justin says, no, thank you. I am talking about the big cheese. But like Steve Miller.

Fucking Steve Miller. Do you guys think Steve Miller from Steve Miller brand every year's about Stephen Miller and is like, this guy's harsh in my whole fucking thing? Hey, this is Steve Miller from the Steve Miller band. You're harming the Steve Miller brand. The rats aren't going to go anywhere else if there's a huge pile of dirty old pizza outside, right? If there's a huge mountain of dirty old pizza, the rats will just live there. There's no more rat problem.

You've fixed your town's rat, a huge rat problem because there's a huge pile of old pizza, and the rats live there, and they're the kings. They're the happiest rats, and they don't bother anybody. Until the day when you settle out of the hot and reddies, then you got to throw out some normal trash, and there's a thousand rats in the alley like, what the fuck? Holy shit, draft. You just describe something so terrifying. I want to take back my imaginary idea.

I thought we had a sweet thing going here, bud. I thought we had a situation and then you come out, we're going to have to come in there and ratatooey some pizzas. Steve Miller bands had like a dozen rhythm guitarists. But not at the same time, right? No, I mean, he's just going through those things like fucking tissue paper. They added it into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame recently, but just him as a solo artist, not his whole band.

And people were upset about it. But it's like he had a dozen fucking guitarist. What do you want him to do? I want people to play this clip after they say, no, actually the Macquaries haven't lost as steps as they've aged. It's just as relevant as ever. I can't stop thinking about if Steve Miller from Steve Miller band was thinking about now that he's really grown up, he was going to make a switch and be serious Stephen Miller.

And then like that brand has been absolutely co-opted from him. Anyway, that's neither here nor there. I'd love another question if that's where the blend is taking us. I was on the phone with a friend when my cat did a backflip right in front of me. As you can imagine, this is quite exciting. Sure. When I interrupted my friend to tell him about what it just occurred, he rightfully expressed doubt. How could I get my cat to do another sick flip this time in front of a second witness when I'm ready to record the trick?

That's from Monty the Catman. Sort of setting up the brand. I like that. You're visualized. You're getting it out into the universe already. Moni the Catman in Hastings, Michigan. I do miss this about Cecil, our old cat, who ran away when we were still in Austin. He was an absolute, just built like a brick shit house, absolutely jacked cat.

And he would do shit. Like if a bug got in the house, forget about it. He was going to be doing stunts and parkour and flips all over the place when you did not expect it. And it was scary. It's like living with a jungle panther. I do, I believe you. Can we say that to this person? Oh, yeah, I believe you.

I believe you. Yeah. Justin, sounds like maybe you don't believe that their cat did a flip. No, I do. I just. I'm thinking about. flip. This cat is going to be such a hero to other cats. Yeah. This is like the

greatest cat troll. One of the great cat trolls ever heard. He's probably going to tell his friends like no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm on some next level shit. I'm on some next level shit. I do, I did a backflip once ever. Ever. Never again. You know how we always land on our feet? It was super hard because I did not know what I was doing. I did not have

any training. I don't even think I could do it again. No way. I couldn't do it again. I couldn't do it again. I did it one time. I was like so scared. I was so freaked out. Yeah. I was just moved by the spirit? Maybe your cat was so fucking scared. Doing a backflip. They were like, Jesus Christ. What happened? Why did I shit? Why to go upside

down? What happened? That was all the way upside down. I mean, I keep thinking about my sort of situation. I think if you let a dragonfly loose in the house, the cat's going to do a backflit. Let like 10 to 12 dragonflies loose in the house. That's a good idea, Griffin. Can you say that again? Let 10 to 12 dragonflies loose in the house. And in trying to get the dragonflies, I don't know how,

Justin, you've gotten really good at looking at the camera whenever you're talking to the audience. This is new because we're like got different setups and stuff. I don't feel, it feels weird for me to do it because I feel like I can see their little faces in my camera. I don't want to do it. I think that it makes me too relatable in a way that I don't want to be. I want to be above everyone.

Do you mean that I'm making eye contact with the camera right now? Yeah, that's. And you're looking. I am looking at me on the screen. You're looking at me. Where am I on the screen? Look at me on the screen now. I'm not.

Justin has set up a monitor. in front of him, Griffin. No, I know, but I still, hi, let 10 to 12 dragonflies loose in the home, and the cat will do a flip trying to get them. I guarantee it. I don't think that's a high enough concentration of dragonflies.

I think for a home, like, if you want to do it in, like, one room and you want to put towels at the doors, you could maybe trap 10 to 12 dragonflies at one room. Yeah. But if you let 10 to 12 dragonflies in your house, that's an annoying. I think you have to bring one to 150 dragonflies.

Sorry, 100 to 150 dragonflies? Not one to $150. Yes, into the house at once. Okay. Because like you could, okay, you release, okay, you release 10. Yeah. The cat eliminates the 10 when you're not looking. That sucks.

150 dragonflies, they're going to be busy for a while. Okay, first step, you've got to put a GoPro on the cat. Put a GoPro on the cat. You'll catch the flip at least from their perspective. Yeah. Right? Yeah. I would say you start with 10 dragonflies, add more.

That's it. Over time. Yeah, because it's going to. be, you need a, if the cat, if this ends up being a bad idea, now all of a sudden you have 100 to 150 dragonflies flying around your house because your cat can't get them too fast, or they congregate in some weird place, they just stick to the ceiling where the cat can't go. Like, now you just got drag. Or your cat does a bat flip on the first dragonfly they see.

Yeah. You catch it and you're like, oh. Yeah. Okay. Now there's just 99 to 149 other dragonflies in my house. Well, I think once the first dragonfly gets got, the other 149 are going. gonna find their way out because they don't want to get. Or they're going to turn on the cat.

Yeah, pick them up, take them away. Yeah. You didn't even think about that, did you, Justin? We've chosen a bad animal for this. Looking at some of the data on dragonflies, they can reproduce with hundreds of eggs over days or weeks, but they can live for years. Wow. So, yeah.

What? So, yeah. So I don't know if it's a good idea. Yeah. what we said. I do think, though, that they love water. So that is going to be something you could maybe get,

maybe they would go for, if you need to get rid of them at some point, if the cat's not like, help around. How do we do robot dragonflies? That's cool. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, like little drones. If dragonflies live for years

and they reproduce hundreds and thousands of times, how come when I go outside of my front door, I don't immediately breathe in 13 to 14 dragonflies? They're not good parents. Cecil's still out there on them all. Keeping us safe. Just look it out for you, dude. I love that.

He followed you. Beautiful. Homeward bound. Except if at the end, they didn't roll up to their folks. But instead became sort of their silent guardians. We're still fighting mountain lions or something. It's been a while since I've seen the show,

but I think that there's a mountain lion fight. Next time I get a cat, I'm going to make sure it is an extremely distinctive cat. I'm going to get a Clifford, the huge blue cat situation, so that then if the cat gets lost, every single person in the city isn't like, I've found a gray cat. Thanks, dude.

I'm sure that's the one. Gray cat with stripes? Yeah, I've seen one of those. Awesome. I need a big blue cat, so they know. Claffered. Claffered. Hey, let's take a quick break.

Okay. And we'll go to the money zone. And then we'll come back and do eight to nine more jokes. How's that sound? Maybe 20 jokes. I think so specific with our numbers. Yeah, we'll do between one and 100. and 50 more jokes.

You know what my cat does backflips for? Is it small's truck? It is small's cat food, Justin. I got a pretty kiddie. I got a pretty kitty. She's not graceful in any way. She's a big thudding. She's actually not big.

She's little. She plods around the house, though, very loudly. She's not nearly as sneaky as she thinks she is. And she often misjudges jumps. But she's great. And I love her very much. And so I feed her small's cat food. Did she have any favorite flavors?

My cats, all of it Amelia, are crazy by smooth bird. That's one of their favorites. They also like smooth other bird because they like to take a walk on the wild side. Yeah, I like to mix it up. You know what I mean? We all do it. I like to eat bird and other bird too in my real life. So why not my cats?

You know what I mean? Here's a bit of data for you. After switching to Smalls, 88% of cat owners reported overall. all health improvements. It's really impressive. I'll say definitely I've seen that in our cats since we switched them off of dry food. They're doing really, really well. Make 2026 your cat's healthiest year yet.

Yeah, Trav, that is something that I care deeply about. I love decor. I know that you feel really strongly about that, and I do too.

And, you know, Wayfair is a great way to make your home look better. Wouldn't you agree, Griffin? Wouldn't you say that's important? This is Wayfair. I got this big ass shelf, this low shelf from Wayfair. Just like a week ago. It's great. Changing out some of the old stuff in your house.

Yeah, that's... Some of your bad stuff. You know, that's what I did. Why are you talking to me like that? Maybe just outstating... Well, you were in the bathroom and you just got back, so we just wanted to bring you back into the conversation. Oh, okay, okay.

I forgot. And they're... About, you know... I forgot what you were even doing a show? I just like, this is how I talk to people when I talk about Wayfair. It's getting that. I go like, this is them. That's them.

No joke. Probably about three quarters of my office decor is... Well, now I feel bad, Griffin, because I started this when you were in the room and I said, Justin, do you know how all this stuff in Grivens House is dog shit? And I was going to talk about how you need a new stuff. The rest of the house is dog shit.

Wayfair, I have done this office up in Wayfair and it is the crowning achievement of my servant. I go to Wayfair when I want to buy something nice for my house. When I want to buy something decent that I know it's going to fall apart right away, you know what I mean? Yeah. Good stuff, big selection.

Nice quality items. Oh, and storage, forget about it. I'm wild about storage over here. You know me. Justin's Storage McRoy. That's what they call them. Storage workers. I won.

Yeah. Justin won the storage wars. Yep. You did. I really, I had a hard time finding. I needed very specific specifications for a low shelf to fit in the background of my shot here. And I searched and they were like, here's 40 exactly the size you need. Damn, Wayfair.

You got me. You got my back. Thank you. Get organized, refreshed, and back on track this year for way less. Head to Wayfair. dot com right now to shop all things home that's w a y f a i r dot com wayfair every style every home everyone you added that yeah i did that's not part of it yeah don't want everyone every day buy furniture buy a couch now every day lift the right couch up and down that's cool

What? Come and look my credenza. Do you say lick my credenza? I was going to say look at my credenza, and I realized the meter wasn't right. So it was just come and look my credenza. That's Dave Matthews after something terrible has happened to his credenza. Sorry, somebody broke into the house.

Something terrible happened to the credenza. Dave Matthews has just seen it. Oh, my God, the credenza. There we go. Thank you. What? Why? Little little little.

I want a much. Squound. I want to much. Squound. A little baby. Pretty baby. Welcome to Munch Squald. It's a podcast, Profiling and Landish Grades and brand eating.

And today, I want to start out with a history lesson. The cassidia is a Mexican dish. And it's made from a tortilla. or two tortillas they're squashed together and then they are cooked on a grittle or a stove.

What part of this is history? This is the, this is what a tauter, this is what a cassidy is. That's not history though. It is the history. So sometimes, sometimes it's heated in a comal

which can be made of cast iron or clay. And it has a long history where it's different, it has different versions that are celebrated throughout. For example, other variations include using wheat flour tortillas, especially in northern Mexico. They use a chihuahua cheese, or also known as queso meninita, a local cheese made by Mennonites. Now, here is an interesting fact for you about the cassidia.

In Mexico City, it is not assumed that the cassidia is going to include cheese, even though that seems implied by the name. No one quite knows about how this sort of like cultural hiccup happened or when this happened. but it is not that way through the rest of Mexico, but for some reason, Mexico City. This dish has a long and storied history. The cassidia is an important part of the textual fabric of both Mexico and the southwest United States. Cool.

So my question is this. If that's the cassidia, what the fuck is this? What have you done, Zaxby's? Zaxby's, what the fuck is this? Back up Zaxby's, take a beat and try again, Zaxby's. Think about yourself. This drunk-assie brings back the southern college student looking shit.

Zaxby's, that's too thick, friend, you know. They brought back Southern Fried Shrimp and what they describe as giant cassidias. And I don't know

it's as though it's as though the stuffing of the cassidia had an ill-fitting blanket. It's like it's taking a sleep study. Yeah. It's trying to wrap the jacadia around itself.

But it's too monumentally loaded with cheese and chicken. Yeah. The motto is, the motto is New Year. Same saucy cravings. The brand famous for taking the Zach's flavors fans love and delivering them in new and innovative formats is bringing back two of its most iconic creations, Southern Fried Shrimp and Giant Casidias. Zaxers brought its beloved breading to the seas with the creation of Southern Fried Shrimp and delivered a saucy twist to a Mexican staple.

So they know about it. They know what they did. They know about it with giant casadias. And they do have the giant here in all caps. these motherfuckers. Can you explain kind of the, to your best ability, the sort of genetic construction of these? So like, okay, you know chicken nuggets and the size and heft of a chicken nugget, right? Imagine you assembled 20 chicken nuggets in sort of a loose manhole shape, right?

And then attempted haphazardly at the bidding of your overlords to try to cover them in tortilla, right? But there's not enough tortilla. Not in the world. Your bosses know it. You're just trying so hard. This looks like the equivalent of like one last Christmas present to wrap. And you just got to the end of the role. And you don't have another role.

And you're trying different ways of taping and folding to make this sliver of paper cover the thing. It also. There's so much filling in here that the cassidy, that the tortilla is almost not visible. I want to know what's in that filling. But they've attempted to sort of culk the gaps between the cheese. chicken nuggets. They would play to, they've applied a rudimentary sort of mortar here to sort of glue the whole thing together.

Yeah, a sort of stinky resin of what looks like cheese and maybe is that bacon in there as well and sour cream? We'll find out. God damn. We'll find out. What a stack. What a stack this is. Both menu innovations are back for a limited time only beginning January 19th.

So the guests can indulge in a one-two punch of flavor delivered by some of the most beloved offerings of years past. You certainly are not. implying that I should order both of these, right? This is not a, right? We're not saying that this is a combo we want to enjoy. Can I also say, I am not a graphics expert. I'm not an art expert, but I do know how shadows work.

Yeah. And I'm looking at this image. Yeah. And somebody had a lot of fun. Someone had fun with the shadows. Yeah, it almost looks like the giant cassidia is a vampire. or perhaps translucent. Actually, that's great.

The Zach sauce casts a very long shadow of the gazadea cast no shot. That's awesome. That looks cool, actually. And the box, there appears to be a shadow cast from things that aren't there. That's amazing. That's amazing.

Hey, you don't become the saucy. Zaxis is one of the few chains that's still taking swings, and I thank them for that because it makes this segment worth living. You don't become the saucy chicken chain by doing what's expected. You do it by cooking up mouth-watering creations,

that put a new twist on classic flavors. Call it a three-peat. Zaxby's is heading back to the Zaxease with the return of its southern fried shrimp, making waves on the menus for a third year in a row. This time, Zaxby's is shrimp in three different ways. So there's something for every seafood lover. You can't make...

They like the shrimp at Zaxe's. You can't make the bold claim of you can't become the saucy king, whatever, by doing what's expecting. So for the third year in a row, we're going back to the Zach Seas. Alongside the maritime favorite, sure. They eat them on the ships, Justin. They love the shrimp.

We would eat the albatross, and when we ran out of avatross, we'd eat the men, and when we ran out of men, we'd eat the giant cassidias. And we were cursed with corn seas to rethru the giant canes. to reap through the giant cassidy as over a reward. They were cursed, I told him. Cursed, you can't have a woman aboard. You must have a cat.

And you can't have a cassidy. They're making the return after the debut last year. Stacked and packed. Stacked and back. Stacked and back. It sucks, man. Stacked and packed

with three of Zaksby's handbraith. It's stacked and packed on its skin or else it's a hard. And fretted chicken fingers with a Z fuck off. The brand is offering two different ways to go big, literally, with these hunger-busting off. Yeah, that's a way to put it. Come on, you nasty dogs.

With these toilet-shattering pillows of food. Can I just have a regular lunch and not really? Cuts. Eat our chicken, duck busters. Get sicker, cook. punish yourself. You know why. What's in these fucking...

I gotta know what's in these things. Rup to your flesh prison. Hey, listen, here's the deal. It's time to ascend. A sand with Xaspies. The tortillas have got to be big to hold in all this sitting. A giant cassidia

packed with three hand-bredded chicken fingers from fucks. They're big with a zee. It's a giant cassadia packed with three hand-bredded chicken fingers, cheddar jack cheese, hardwood smoked bacon, and creamy ranch dressing, all folded into a warm flour tortilla

served with against reason and logic a side of ranch. No, I was afraid that would be the case just that I saw the sauce. I thought no, certainly not. And, lessently, a small drink. Now, I'm assuming that the small drink is just

included in the deal like, I don't please. It's mixed in the fucking tortilla. It wasn't originally, but it was a liability issue. You need a friend to help it go down. Choking hazard. At what point does it go from cassidia to like taco? Well, I think it's... Cazadea means...

Doesn't the Dia imply like a diminutive? Isn't that a small? I don't think so. I don't think so, but maybe... No, it's Eto is what I'm thinking of. Anyway, we're... We're kicking off the new year with bowl flavor and fan favorite, says Patrick Schwing, Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer at Zaxpies.

Our guests have told us loud and clear, said Patrick Schwing, Southern Fried Shrimp, and our giant chicken cassidias are two menu items they crave. Dia does mean diminutive, Justin. I apologize for correcting you, Justin. Dia does mean diminutive. And I stepped up from my six years of Spanish education. and I thought, I'm going to make my brother seem small right now, and I was wrong. And now I'm the small one.

I don't apologize. If you, like me, had remained in college a fifth year to take your fourth Spanish class again because you failed it the first time. Maybe he would have called a little bit better. Yeah, that memory, you got to do repetition. That's the thing. If you take Spanish for twice, the second time, we are bringing them both back to give them exactly what they want. Our famous fingers and sauces in new. meals that they can only get at

Zaxby's. Whether you're diving back into the Zaxease or doubling down on bold, cheesy. I'm going to get a tattoo that says Zach C's guys. It's all I can think about. Zaxby's is making sure fans start the year right. Now, what they mean by right there is

anybody's guess. Yeah. Because it's not in the light of the Lord, so I don't know what right they're referring to. I don't know who wakes up January 1st and says, you know what I'm going to do this year. I'm going to eat. together this year. Yeah, you know what?

I've made a promise to myself and to you, Debra. I know where I fell short last year as a husband and a father and a person. I will eat more Zaxby's. You're right. I'm going to swim the Zaxies. I'm going to get fingered at Zaxby's like I always wanted to. Yeah, man. That's cool.

It's on my bucket list. And you know what? I'm 75 years old. I'm not getting any younger. Hey, Zaxby's. I'm going to, yeah. Zaxby's Super Bowl's coming up. And these big boys are throwing heaters today,

so you can use one of these, please. Just put us at the end of the car. Get finger to Zachsies. Get finger to powerful. Yeah. I have a mini fridge in my garage that stopped working years ago, and I finally took it to the curb this morning. Don't you love shit like that?

Yes. We realized like, hey, why are we keeping this, man? Let's get rid of this. I placed a bag of trash on top of it to clearly communicate this is trash. As I was backing on my driveway, I was waiting for an opening to reverse into the street and someone pulled up to my neighbor's driveway,

walked directly in front of my car, removed the trash bag from the fridge, and took the fridge. He is now loading the fridge in his car. And my obligated to roll down my window and let this person know the fridge is not functional. Please hurry. His backpack is open,

and he is clearing space to make room. That's from hesitant in Houston. I don't know at which point we and the listeners agreed that it is assumed we're answering these questions in real time, but it is. It's always a great concern. Hey, wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait.

Just one second. Don't finish. Let's wait. I'm waiting. I'm waiting. For a podcast to be released. Are you doing anything before next Monday? Sorry, I don't have an executive subscription,

so I got to wait until Monday for it to release. First of all, you don't know what they're going to be doing with it. Could be maybe they need a broken, maybe it's a prop for a stage play. Maybe it is, they need the refrigerator parts because they're trying to build their own Wally. Maybe they need a box that doesn't get hot. They can, you're cold that they can keep food in,

just a normal box. Maybe they want to trap Punky Brewster's friend Maybe they are setting a Punky Brewster's friend trap And they need a box A refrigerator box for it There's so many reasons

They're gonna blow it up You know for like a viral video Let's go it up Yeah They're gonna blow it up And this may seem wild But maybe they're gonna try to fix it You can't fix

Tell me how you fix a refrigerator Yeah You put the cold stuff back What are you talking about? I'm just saying I don't go around Picking up fridges because I wouldn't know how to fix it

if it wasn't working. Yeah. But my assumption when I picked it up off the street would not be perfect fridge. Nice. Yeah.

That's true. Yeah, I think that if you leaned out your window and said, hey, just so you know, that doesn't work. The response is almost certainly going to be, yeah, no doy. Yeah.

No shit. Really? No shit? That's why it's free, huh? I thought this was just your little yard fridge. You take that to the flea market. You slap a sticker on it says five dollars.

Ops, that's profit. Yeah. Just because that person could recognize it, you can't. That's not their fault. Or, or. You trade it up. Yeah, yeah, you trade it up. How the fuck did you think that that is what I was going to say?

Why did you assume that? I was like, or you were like, ah, yes, Griffin, trade it up. That was wrong and wild. No, like you're going to take the broken mini fridge to the flea market. No. You're going to see like a broken stand mixer. I'm going to trade this for the broken stand mixer. And then I trade the broken stand mixer.

Yeah. for like a broken jukebox and pretty soon I own a house. Okay. A broken house. A broken house. There was a broken man who owned a broken house. There should be a...

Trade your broken Dodge S.R.T. For a broken house. I would love it. If we could check in on one of those people who back when Vine existed were like, hey everyone, here's my daily trade trading up from a paper clip up to get my own house.

But then you check in on them 10 years later and they're like, guys, I kept trading. And I got back down to a paper clip sometimes you fucking win sometimes sometimes you bite the dog sometimes the dog bites you i was in a house for a sweet minute there but then someone was like hey this is a nice house do you want to try this van and then it went van then it went telescope then it was broken sand mixer then it went broken microwave and now i got a paperclip again god damn it but i'm coming back you only you only lose once

you give up i'm coming back to a house for sure hey guys i started with a paper clip i traded my way Turned out that paper clip was like a one-of-a-kind misprint for 1963 worth $5 million. So if you have that paper clip still, I'll trade you this house. Trade you back. For it. Could I say this is both a lot of time. A lot of time. How about another question?

Sure. Do it. I work at a nature center. And in the summer, the bushes are overflowing with delicious black raspberries. Raspberries. However, they're called blackberries. How embarrassing. however we are located into the city park and foraging is prohibited during all daylight hours seven days a week the whole area is crawling with management summer camp kids other staff and just regular park goers all of whom could be potential witnesses to my crimes how do i avoid getting spotted while taking all the berries my heart desires and if i get spotted what excuses can i make to get away scot-free that's from raspberry swiper in southeast michigan wow can we as a society agree to get rid of the pee in raspberry i think we should i think

we need to circle back as the society to a lot of words Wednesday, raspberry, just a lot. Restaurant. Thank you. Oh, my God. Restaurant always gets me. Where's that you go? Who the fuck knows? No one knows.

Okay. Could you, if caught, say like, poison checker. Yeah. They would know. That person would be on staff. They would probably know. That's a good point. You know what I mean?

Like, that person would be on staff. They would be employed. They wouldn't be on staff. I don't think you can be a volunteer poison. Yeah. So maybe you hand out a handful of raspberries. They're looking for, they're not going to bust you. They're looking for you.

That's what I would, I just put the wrists out. Yeah, let's go. Let's go. And then they come up to you. Lock me up for these delicious berries. They come up to you to slap the cups on. You open your palms. You're giving them some delicious black raspberries.

Let them get their beque. Yes. Yeah. Because they're a crow. You say welcome to the. I know what you might be thinking. Boy. These guys are sure.

letting it show how their interactions with cops typically get it go is two, three white guys. See, it may not sound like a great idea to you to offer cops berries. Now, wait, hold on. You've jumped from, I work at a nature preserve. There's kids around and my bosses. And your thing is, and your actual assumption is,

I think this says more about your anxiety than anything else, that your assumption is cops are going to be like, those aren't your black raspberries? I'm taking you. Your boss, your boss spots you and calls the cops. Hey, I warn you. That's it. It's a theft.

It's a theft. Prohibited doesn't mean by social mores. It means by the law. Do you not understand? Yeah, this is what I'm saying. Of course it's illegal. You say, there's fucking. Forging is prohibited.

That is a legal. It is a city park. Yes. Forging is prohibited. It's a crime. It's a crime. Okay, cool. You'll go to jail.

Okay, so, but like, be cool, dude. Like, we used to, be so cool and we'd be like, yeah, man, you're on the rip. You need to say, you give them to your boss or whoever comes by. He's like, you know that foraging is prohibited. You open your palms. There's a bunch of black raspberries in there. You say, welcome to the rip, my friend. They eat them. You say, now we're both dirty. And now you got two baskets going around grabbing these things. Oh, God. What if you just smush a berry? Like, they come up to you to bust you and you smush a berry on their hand? Like, uh-oh. That's forever. Look at you. It looks like you're culpable. You

better to help me clean up. You're going down. I'll take you with me. I swear to God. Take you with me. They just rub it on your teeth. Look at that. Somebody's a sloppy eater. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Looking hungry.

Blame it on a bear. If they catch you picking berries off of a plant, say it's because of a bear. A bear made me do it. Bear has my family. My name is Ranger Rick. A bear, who is very mean, has taken my family. I do not know where they are. He says he wants picnic baskets.

He says it's hard for him to get them because he's a bear. but I am in a position of authority. People trust me. I'm worried that my wife has developed Stockholm syndrome. My name is Special Agent Jack Bauer. I have 12 hours to retrieve enough BlackBerry to save my daughter, Kim. And the country.

As long as we're at it. Yeah, it's a country too. It's a country thing. What have you fell into the brambles? Now first. And then it's like, oh, this is poorly labeled. Ah! I believe I've scraped myself.

management is to be blamed and then like as they're like oh no sir I'm sorry please please no I'm sorry just grouping just like grab it easy I thought you were gonna go for like a slip and fall thing it's like yeah you slip and fall into the berries

right and then you're just like no one can get mad at you because they're worried about a lawsuit yeah yeah because you you might have gotten cut on the the brand you will get cut I think that's important to say that Justin's plan does come with a certain amount of bodily arm Justin Justin has some lovely blackberry bushes

outside of his house that when we go and stay there, sometimes we'll go out and pick them if they're in season. And nothing connects me more to my kind of like ancient roots. Nothing puts me on deep time more than getting poked by a bramble when I'm trying to get a berry out of a bush. And I'm like, this is what it was like. This is what it was like back then. And I'm not cut out for this lifestyle. I'm a hunter. I'm a hunter. Not a gatherer. That's not true. Which part? The hunter part. Well, there wasn't a third thing.

So if I'm not a gatherer, I had to be a hunter. Dead. I think was the third. Oh, yeah. Somebody's eating this stuff. Yeah. Gotta be eaters. Otherwise, what are we hunting and gathering?

There's got to be podcasters. Yeah. Oh, shit. Those are the three times. Hunters, gathers, podcasters to eat us. And we must stop this train of thought because it'll get us to a point where our obsolescence becomes so crystallized. Overwhelming.

So, yeah, so obvious. You know what? I can't think of a better. note to end on. Thank you so much. I'm listening to our podcast. Thank you for indulging us for another hour. We need this. Thank you so much.

We need this. We need this more than you at this point. It's 2026 and we need this. We need you. Stop it. Hey, we got merch over the merch store if you haven't checked that out. We got backpacks. There's Taz and my brother my brother me options.
