                                        Yes, that is correct
                                         
                                        Who has a new microphone
                                         
                                        Do you like that?
                                         
                                        Do you like these people?

                                        The smartest thing to spend your money on
                                         
                                        That you bought the t-shirts
                                         
                                        Is to put it back into my brother and my brother and me
                                         
                                        So it's like a
                                         
                                        You're not lining our pockets
                                         
                                        You're lining your ear

                                        So we spent $300 on new microphones
                                         
                                        And the other $300
                                         
                                        We're going to spend to get Eddie Murphy
                                         
                                        On the show for just one episode
                                         
                                        Just one episode, guest spot
                                         
                                        No, nothing
                                         
                                        Off limits
                                         
                                        No rules
                                         
    
                                        You would think $300 wouldn't be enough

                                        On hard times
                                         
                                        It's plenty to get for Pluto Nash
                                         
                                        You know what I'm saying
                                         
                                        Meet Dave
                                         
                                        Meet Dave Cash
                                         
    
                                        Those residuals
                                         
                                        Just aren't what he hoped they would be
                                         
                                        I don't understand why Hanan Manchin
                                         
                                        Wasn't as big as I thought it would be
                                         
                                        I'm Griffin McRoy, by the way

                                        There's a reason
                                         
                                        Look at Travis using the power of his microphone
                                         
    
                                        To silence others
                                         
                                        What do you guys say we just
                                         
                                        Just chill this show

                                        Let's do a couple easy questions first
                                         
                                        Some slow balls
                                         
                                        First, let me take off my pants, hold on
                                         
    
                                        Okay
                                         
                                        Thank God
                                         
                                        He has a new microphone that we can listen to it
                                         
                                        In perfect audio quality
                                         
                                        Okay, this is for form spring
                                         
                                        I have a mane of hair
                                         
                                        That helps break the ice with nearly everyone
                                         
                                        I've meet Jesus, man
                                         
    
                                        What kind of product do you put in your hair?
                                         
                                        Hey, my drink is warmer
                                         
                                        Than it was
                                         
                                        Lots of people recognize me because of it
                                         
                                        But I want a job
                                         
                                        And looking the way I do, no one will employ me
                                         
                                        Should I sacrifice popularity for a job?
                                         
                                        Or remain penniless yet cool?
                                         
    
                                        There's nothing cool about being penniless
                                         
                                        I've never seen a homeless man with a great head of hair
                                         
                                        Yeah, no one's like
                                         
                                        Hey, the moths in your hair are really sexy
                                         
                                        You seem like a cool guy
                                         
                                        What is that, bubble gum?
                                         
                                        I like that, looks nice

                                        I think there's a way to have your cake
                                         
                                        And eat it too
                                         
                                        There have got to be jobs out there

                                        How did this go from
                                         
    
                                        He has a big head of head
                                         
                                        I took it like a beard too
                                         
                                        When he says mane
                                         
                                        I'm thinking like a lion's mane
                                         
                                        Going all the way around his head
                                         
                                        What? You think
                                         
                                        When you read mane, it's like rapping beats
                                         
                                        When you read mane, you think he's got a ring of hair
                                         
    
                                        Around his head, like a lion
                                         
                                        Yeah, like a lion
                                         
                                        How did you get to be as old as you are
                                         
                                        And not know things
                                         
                                        Like what things are
                                         
                                        You don't know things that are things about them
                                         
                                        You don't know the things
                                         
                                        I don't need the house that much
                                         
    
                                        Justin, that kind of thing comes with a new microphone
                                         
                                        That kind of clarity
                                         
                                        And understanding
                                         
                                        My brother and me, what can I do to build my confidence
                                         
                                        So I can go out there and meet some new ladies
                                         
                                        Around my age, or is focusing on school and work now
                                         
                                        Meeting someone if I'm lucky
                                         
                                        In an okay strategy for the next couple of years
                                         
    
                                        It's like I'm desperate for some action
                                         
                                        I just wonder if I'm making a mistake
                                         
                                        By not going out there and making myself available
                                         
                                        Kevin
                                         
                                        Well, I hope that latter strategy is a good one
                                         
                                        I sure hope so
                                         
                                        Do you think it's going to be like a pizza delivery girl?

                                        Kevin, but here's the thing
                                         
                                        Maybe you are going to meet your special lady
                                         
                                        Maybe

                                        Maybe you are going to be the kind of guy
                                         
                                        Who just walks into a gas station one day
                                         
                                        And there she is
                                         
                                        But statistically speaking
                                         
                                        That somebody special
                                         
                                        Is going to be a special
                                         
                                        Or somebody if you've exposed yourself
                                         
    
                                        To more members of the opposite sex
                                         
                                        That's just science
                                         
                                        Metaphorically
                                         
                                        Don't really expose yourself
                                         
                                        We don't want to be party to that
                                         
                                        Although you don't know

                                        So
                                         
    
                                        Kevin, you got to get out there
                                         
                                        You got to say hi
                                         
                                        Building confidence goes
                                         
                                        You got to
                                         
                                        Not be afraid to fail
                                         
                                        Unfortunately
                                         
                                        It's not going to be a confidence build
                                         
                                        Especially if you are not good at it
                                         
    
                                        Just don't fail
                                         
                                        In front of anybody
                                         
                                        Because that will be so embarrassing
                                         
                                        Why don't you take her into dark
                                         
                                        Abandoned alley where no one can see
                                         
                                        And then fail
                                         
                                        That's a good opening line too
                                         
                                        I'm about to hit on you
                                         
    
                                        But I'd like to take you to a dark abandoned alley
                                         
                                        To do it in
                                         
                                        Because I don't want anybody to see
                                         
                                        That should be a pretty good icebreaker
                                         
                                        It's no mane of hair
                                         
                                        As an icebreaker, but it is a pretty good one
                                         
                                        I'll tell you this, you'll get a reaction every time
                                         
                                        And that's what you're looking for
                                         
    
                                        You're just looking for a reaction
                                         
                                        Can I suggest
                                         
                                        Strong by being constantly rejected
                                         
                                        That's how some people would do it
                                         
                                        Just build up that thick hide
                                         
                                        The kind you keep feeling anything
                                         
                                        You know what you could do
                                         
                                        Just walk up to girls randomly
                                         
    
                                        And just say no thanks
                                         
                                        And then walk away
                                         
                                        Say you're like mass rejecting
                                         
                                        Lots of girls
                                         
                                        Without ever risking being rejected
                                         
                                        Take it a step further, walk into a bar
                                         
                                        And announce at the top of your lungs
                                         
                                        I don't want to sleep with any of you
                                         
    
                                        Sorry ladies
                                         
                                        They'll flock to you as you leave the bar
                                         
                                        Get a t-shirt that says sorry ladies
                                         
                                        Off limits
                                         
                                        I bet that t-shirt would work for you
                                         
                                        I bet that would work
                                         
                                        Y'all can answer
                                         
                                        You two work it out
                                         
    
                                        Travis, go
                                         
                                        There was a comedian once who said
                                         
                                        The best way to get a woman to sleep with you
                                         
                                        Is to walk in and tell her that you're bad at sex
                                         
                                        So I was just going to say
                                         
                                        Approach women and say
                                         
                                        Be comfortable and don't know how to talk to women
                                         
                                        And just lead with that
                                         
    
                                        That's my advice, go Griffin, go

                                        When I move out, I want to adopt a whole family
                                         
    
                                        From Ethiopia
                                         
                                        I have a heart for starving children
                                         
                                        And I'm about to move out
                                         
                                        And I'm getting a 149 acre home
                                         
                                        And I plan to have a farm
                                         
                                        But I would like to help a family out
                                         
                                        And adopt a whole family
                                         
                                        And build them their own little house on my land
                                         
    
                                        And share a little bit of land for them
                                         
                                        I was wondering if they would let me take them
                                         
                                        Out of their country without a passport
                                         
                                        Or...
                                         
                                        Um...
                                         
                                        Yeah, that's how it works
                                         
                                        You need to make sure you poke holes in the box
                                         
                                        Yeah, I'm pretty sure
                                         
    
                                        What you just described was
                                         
                                        Light slavery
                                         
                                        Just a mild slavery
                                         
                                        Just maybe a little...
                                         
                                        A touch of slavery
                                         
                                        You just described the

                                        I want to adopt
                                         
                                        This family
                                         
                                        From another nation
                                         
                                        Are you with me so far?
                                         
                                        They can live on my...
                                         
                                        I wouldn't call it a plantation
                                         
                                        But it is plantation sized
                                         
    
                                        A Funtation
                                         
                                        A Funtation, sure
                                         
                                        You're on the Funtation yet
                                         
                                        But I'm thinking about getting in the Crop Game
                                         
                                        It would be handy if they wanted to
                                         
                                        Help out and exchange rooms
                                         
                                        Room and board
                                         
                                        Textiles
                                         
    
                                        Textiles?
                                         
                                        They're going to be picking Felt
                                         
                                        Felt, Kemp
                                         
                                        Stuff along those lines
                                         
                                        I'm going to build them a house though
                                         
                                        Not a big house
                                         
                                        Not a small house, right?
                                         
                                        Not tiny
                                         
    
                                        And I imagine when I adopt them
                                         
                                        At first they'll be really scared
                                         
                                        Because they're not going to know what's going on
                                         
                                        They may resist even
                                         
                                        But
                                         
                                        I think eventually they'll appreciate
                                         
                                        The fulfillment
                                         
                                        A fulfilling day of work can provide
                                         
    
                                        So lady
                                         
                                        You don't have a heart for starving children
                                         
                                        You are a slave master
                                         
                                        You're a slave master
                                         
                                        There is a legal
                                         
                                        It's the warm feeling she gets
                                         
                                        From the terrifying looks on their faces
                                         
                                        That's all the payment she needs
                                         
    
                                        Is it okay
                                         
                                        They're free labor
                                         
                                        Is it okay to pee in the bathroom
                                         
                                        Sink if you're drunk
                                         
                                        I ran the faucet for a while
                                         
                                        If that helped
                                         
                                        Read the last
                                         
                                        Read it all together
                                         
    
                                        Making sure that you add that last word
                                         
                                        Because it really makes it
                                         
                                        because it really makes it.
                                         
                                        Is it OK to pee in the bathroom sink if you're drunk?
                                         
                                        I ran the faucet for a while, if that helped.
                                         
                                        Peace.
                                         
                                        Nick, I am before I answer your question,
                                         
                                        I am put off by the change of tense
                                         
    
                                        in the middle of your question, because you went from like,
                                         
                                        it sounds like you made a decision right after that question mark
                                         
                                        and then are retroactively asking our forgiveness.
                                         
                                        That's that's the context to me.
                                         
                                        That's the hidden meaning between the lines
                                         
                                        or the question marks in this case.
                                         
                                        He didn't pee in my bathroom sink, though.
                                         
                                        So he has nothing to, he has nothing to ask forgiveness for.
                                         
    
                                        That's a good question.
                                         
                                        Are you peeing in your own bathroom sink
                                         
                                        or like the bathroom sink at a bar, because that's not OK?
                                         
                                        I'm sure if we did a silent canvas of the three people on this podcast,
                                         
                                        we could probably find one person who is peed in the bathroom sink
                                         
                                        on a regular basis, not anymore.
                                         
                                        But you're thinking just one.
                                         
                                        Oh, Jesus, I will say,
                                         
    
                                        statistically speaking, at least one person on this podcast,
                                         
                                        at least one, regularly less than three.
                                         
                                        We I OK, I think that.
                                         
                                        I have to ask this question.
                                         
                                        What is the compulsion for peeing in the sink?
                                         
                                        It's just there and you're just like, especially when you've been drinking.
                                         
                                        I don't know if you're like throwing off society's rules
                                         
                                        or just saying you're your own man and you pee where you want.
                                         
    
                                        I mean, it's a pretty sucky revolution
                                         
                                        because it's still like the same spot.
                                         
                                        So you're not exactly, you know, they're not making post avoid signs about it.
                                         
                                        You know, yeah, it's I mean, it's kind of an act of rebellion.
                                         
                                        You think it is not a good one, not like a super rebellious one.
                                         
                                        Just clean it up afterwards.
                                         
                                        So he ran the faucet if it helps.
                                         
                                        I think what we've agreed on is it's not OK to pee in the sink
                                         
    
                                        if you're drunk, but if you're sober, it's totally cool.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I just want it to be a choice.
                                         
                                        Yeah, guys, I'm in love with my best friend of two years,
                                         
                                        and I'm not sure if she likes me back. Any advice?
                                         
                                        You should move away.
                                         
                                        Move away, man. Change your name.
                                         
                                        Or I got an alternate.
                                         
                                        How about this?
                                         
    
                                        Ask her pussy.
                                         
                                        I mean, why would you ask her to get the punctuation
                                         
                                        straight in that sentence, is it ask her pussy or ask her pussy?
                                         
                                        Now, get a defining rod.
                                         
                                        No, and I say that I call you
                                         
                                        that that name, which I shouldn't be using female genitalia as a slang term.
                                         
                                        I'm going to say Wimpo.
                                         
                                        Yeah, about Weiner.
                                         
    
                                        Ask her Weiner.
                                         
                                        Stop being a Weiner and ask her Weiner.
                                         
                                        I say that with love.
                                         
                                        She's your best friend. Two years.
                                         
                                        That's at one thirty fifth of your life, statistically speaking.
                                         
                                        How about you just ask her and either get to French and or beat she's out of there
                                         
                                        if and keep this in mind when you ask her.
                                         
                                        And if she says no, you do have to move away. Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        So there's your answer.
                                         
                                        Now, do me a favor and stop listening so I can give everyone else an answer.
                                         
                                        She doesn't like him.
                                         
                                        No, that's not true.
                                         
                                        Now, that's not true.
                                         
                                        If after two years, he doesn't know if she likes him back.
                                         
                                        Dude, dude, shy.
                                         
                                        Dude, shy. Listen, form spring, dude, just ask her.
                                         
    
                                        Trust me, because that's going to be the best day ever.
                                         
                                        If it works, if it works, we're a mom.
                                         
                                        Ask her mom and she likes.
                                         
                                        Yep.
                                         
                                        Yahoo Answers user, Gally McClure.
                                         
                                        No, no, you just want to go ahead and that's not the name.
                                         
                                        That's not. No, the name is David.
                                         
                                        David asks.
                                         
    
                                        Does a woman ever love a stalker?
                                         
                                        A stalker who stalks 24 seven from childhood to adulthood for five long years.
                                         
                                        Wait, what? What?
                                         
                                        Yeah, they're they're they're there are many things happening here.
                                         
                                        I am uncomfortable with this.
                                         
                                        Wait, is there more of the question?
                                         
                                        There are additional details that say
                                         
                                        I mean, from teen to adult age.
                                         
    
                                        So I would say maybe.
                                         
                                        And also my delete key is broken, so I can't edit that thing.
                                         
                                        I said just a second ago.
                                         
                                        Sixteen to twenty one, I'll say. OK.
                                         
                                        But here's the thing. OK.
                                         
                                        Here's here's let's inception this shit and kick it on another level.
                                         
                                        Incept it. I'm going to incept it.
                                         
                                        Is this the stalker asking the question?
                                         
    
                                        Or is it the stocky? Oh, my God.
                                         
                                        You just blew my mind.
                                         
                                        My mind is blown.
                                         
                                        You think that maybe she's like, listen,
                                         
                                        I don't want to give everybody the wrong idea about stalking.
                                         
                                        But sometimes it works like maybe.
                                         
                                        Yeah, maybe she actually kind of likes this dude
                                         
                                        that that she sees occasionally going through her trash.
                                         
    
                                        But she doesn't know if it's OK to like him.
                                         
                                        She hated and hated it and was scared of it and couldn't stand it.
                                         
                                        And then after years of it, she's it's it's not that she loves it.
                                         
                                        She's used to it. It's like the New Arcade Fire album.
                                         
                                        You just you just wait and wait and wait.
                                         
                                        And eventually you get him.
                                         
                                        And finally, you you get this stalker.
                                         
                                        You understand where he's coming from.
                                         
    
                                        You know, I just gave me an idea.
                                         
                                        I if I ever stalk someone, I'm going to put on a giant raccoon suit
                                         
                                        before I start going through their trash.
                                         
                                        That buys me like 20 minutes.
                                         
                                        How do you how do you don't move?
                                         
                                        Don't move, but they can smell fear.
                                         
                                        They can smell fear.
                                         
                                        That ringtail bastard.
                                         
    
                                        Hey, I've wanted braces for a couple of years now
                                         
                                        and have finally gone to the orthodontist.
                                         
                                        I was expecting to pay around 1,800 to 2,000 squiggle marks.
                                         
                                        I believe that's pounds.
                                         
                                        Is it pounders at Lyra, which even at that amount
                                         
                                        would be very really difficult for me to pay.
                                         
                                        But once I got to the orthodontist, he told me it would cost
                                         
                                        3,200 Lyra Euro pounds to have braces.
                                         
    
                                        This amount would mean a huge commitment over two years of my life.
                                         
                                        I'm only 18 and want to go to university next year.
                                         
                                        My teeth are not extremely crooked, but they definitely need braces.
                                         
                                        Should I plunge into debt for a couple of years
                                         
                                        with the reward of straight teeth or wait, wait it out until I'm 24 to 25
                                         
                                        or maybe never? I don't know who to ask.
                                         
                                        Please help. Thanks.
                                         
                                        David, I want to point out he didn't type
                                         
    
                                        not not extremely crooked, but they definitely need braces.
                                         
                                        He says not extremely crooked, but they defiantly need braces, which I like.
                                         
                                        You're like, hey, hey, listen, I'm your teeth.
                                         
                                        Deal with it.
                                         
                                        Give me some braces, you bastard.
                                         
                                        Give me braces, David.
                                         
                                        I'm again, I can't say this enough.
                                         
                                        I know I brought it up in a few episodes, but I was the only macaroy
                                         
    
                                        fortunate enough to know the sweet embrace of braces.
                                         
                                        There's no amount too high for that feeling.
                                         
                                        You know how?
                                         
                                        You know how, like, in your life, you have these random things
                                         
                                        or like everyone's staring at my eyebrow.
                                         
                                        Everyone's looking at my, you know, this is it on my cheek.
                                         
                                        Everyone looks at your teeth.
                                         
                                        It is actually true.
                                         
    
                                        Look to your grill.
                                         
                                        Get that grill fixed.
                                         
                                        Because when you talk, everyone's looking at your mouth.
                                         
                                        It's true. Or with that, you could just
                                         
                                        tell people to deal with it.
                                         
                                        Hey, save some money.
                                         
                                        Get a tattoo on your lip that says deal with it.
                                         
                                        That would be way cheaper.
                                         
    
                                        And it would like that's that's that's something people are going to remember.
                                         
                                        So whatever happened to David, who used to come around, I don't remember David,
                                         
                                        but I do remember a guy who had a tattoo on his lip that said deal with it.
                                         
                                        And I respected him for it.
                                         
                                        Can the top lip, can the top lip say, yeah, I know.
                                         
                                        And the bottom lip say, deal with it.
                                         
                                        Yeah. And on the inside, you pull down your lower lip
                                         
                                        and there's a Chinese character for strength.
                                         
    
                                        Have you thought about getting like a grill,
                                         
                                        like getting gold teeth, diamonds?
                                         
                                        Yes, that's got to be cheaper.
                                         
                                        But if you've got if you've got a fucked up grill
                                         
                                        and you get a real grill on top of it, it's going to you're going to look like
                                         
                                        a Bond villain. Yes.
                                         
                                        Yes. Why are you listing things that are positives and pretending they're negatives?
                                         
                                        Why is that not awesome?
                                         
    
                                        I'm saying either get that sweet embrace
                                         
                                        because it feels so good.
                                         
                                        I got to tell you, having your teeth move around.
                                         
                                        Oh, it's an experience that I think it would sell better if they were called embraces.
                                         
                                        Embraces, I don't think so.
                                         
                                        I would buy them. I don't even need them.
                                         
                                        Or just be confident because people find confidence in faults.
                                         
                                        Sexy. That's why Kirsten Dunst is as famous as she is nowadays.
                                         
    
                                        She's got a girl that looks like she stopped a train with her teeth.
                                         
                                        I wouldn't go that far, but I do know what you're saying.
                                         
                                        Confidence.
                                         
                                        If you don't pretend it's a thing, other people won't even notice.
                                         
                                        I know I have someone confidence.
                                         
                                        What? Having thirty two hundred dollars in their pocket.
                                         
                                        Well, not dollars, though.
                                         
                                        I don't know.
                                         
    
                                        It might be really cheap.
                                         
                                        I don't know what this money means.
                                         
                                        Are there. Is it rubles?
                                         
                                        Do people still use those rubles?
                                         
                                        I think it's shekels. Shekels.
                                         
                                        Brothers. Brothers three help me out at the moment.
                                         
                                        I'm an algebra class I failed last year.
                                         
                                        I'm in an algebra class I failed last year and I got stuck with the same old bag
                                         
    
                                        lecturer. I need to pass this class to get my engineering degree, Josh, from Gmail.
                                         
                                        Josh didn't explicitly state a problem in this question.
                                         
                                        Yeah, it sounds like, Josh, you're on the right track.
                                         
                                        I'm not good at algebra.
                                         
                                        Like if you if you've come to the exact wrong place, if that's what you're looking for.
                                         
                                        Geometry may be something, but I can tell you how to cheat,
                                         
                                        which is how I got through both of my high school algebra classes.
                                         
                                        Go on.
                                         
    
                                        You said you're a smart kid who wants friends.
                                         
                                        Hey, hey, Josh, I'm going to hit you with something.
                                         
                                        Kind of pull the camera back a little bit.
                                         
                                        Let's zoom out for a second.
                                         
                                        Maybe you are in the wrong field.
                                         
                                        Maybe you are cut out for this.
                                         
                                        Maybe this isn't your right calling.
                                         
                                        If you're having such trouble.
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, I don't play the way.
                                         
                                        Math is kind of important in engineering, isn't it?
                                         
                                        Yeah, it seems like you need to know this shit.
                                         
                                        Like if it's like it's tough for you, you know, bridges and shit, right?
                                         
                                        Yeah, I kind of want you on point, though.
                                         
                                        I kind of want you to be like really bomb at this class.
                                         
                                        I would like you to leave the class, stand up and walk out and be like,
                                         
                                        no bridges for me.
                                         
    
                                        Thanks, you know, what has never like I've never been walking
                                         
                                        across a bridge and had someone say, you know, who built this bridge?
                                         
                                        The guy who can't do algebra and just felt a wash with confidence.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I remember when I built this bridge.
                                         
                                        That's the third time I felt algebra and hey, it's not my fault.
                                         
                                        I was in the same lecture, but I did drop out of school.
                                         
                                        I don't know why they let me make a bridge.
                                         
                                        I am good in Lagos directly in the air.
                                         
    
                                        That's only because it's up.
                                         
                                        You got to let a boat through.
                                         
                                        Josh, just stand up and announce the class that algebra is useless.
                                         
                                        And see how the teacher reacts.
                                         
                                        She may he or she I guess old bag.
                                         
                                        That sounds like a she she may wink out of existence when faced
                                         
                                        with that sort of incontrovertible logic.
                                         
                                        I did that to a to a social studies teacher one time.
                                         
    
                                        Did you work?
                                         
                                        And I said, this is this is so pointless.
                                         
                                        I will never use this information.
                                         
                                        And then they just they cease to exist.
                                         
                                        Stand up and yell.
                                         
                                        You, madam, have killed the frail old lady that is algebra.
                                         
                                        And see if you can start leading a revolt.
                                         
                                        Yeah. Oh, so you want him to kill her?

                                        Blow that conch shell.
                                         
                                        Blow that conch shell.
                                         
                                        Get Peggy this mother.
                                         
                                        Dear Mubim Bam, I'm having a bit of difficulty with the bros before hose rule.
                                         
                                        Well, it's not a good start, but keep going.
                                         
                                        The majority of my friends happen to be female and I only have a few male friends.
                                         
    
                                        Would my female friends be considered bros and my male friends hose?
                                         
                                        Thanks for your help.
                                         
                                        Um, no, no, you're doing it wrong.
                                         
                                        You're doing it wrong.
                                         
                                        Bros before hose is kind of a dumb thing to say.
                                         
                                        Yep. I want to deconstruct it and take you back.
                                         
                                        You there is bros before hose is something that men say to each other
                                         
                                        to make themselves feel better because I got I want to take you real deep in here.
                                         
    
                                        It's always hoes before bras.
                                         
                                        It's always women always cars.
                                         
                                        Let's peel back another thinking about women.
                                         
                                        They're not thinking about you.
                                         
                                        Peel back another layer, though, because the bigger problem here
                                         
                                        is that you are unironically using the word bro and ho.
                                         
                                        I don't know which one's worse, but pretty bad.
                                         
                                        They're both really bad.
                                         
    
                                        Uh, I, I.
                                         
                                        How about maybe you're in the chicks before Dix kind of situation?
                                         
                                        In any event, your male friends would never be your hose.
                                         
                                        That is it is important to know.
                                         
                                        Yeah, it's a good test.
                                         
                                        Here's a good test.
                                         
                                        Get gather all your male friends together at Giovanni's.
                                         
                                        Walk into Giovanni's and say, what's up, my host?
                                         
    
                                        Supposed.
                                         
                                        Supposed.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I bet not good.
                                         
                                        The thing is the phrase bros before host is something that the other guys use
                                         
                                        to keep you from like ditching them.
                                         
                                        It's not like, uh, it's nothing any guy has ever sat down and go, you know,
                                         
                                        I'd love to go home with this lady, but bros before hoes, I suppose.
                                         
                                        It does.
                                         
    
                                        The only way to stress before hoes, I suppose should be the new one.
                                         
                                        Bros before hoes only apply.
                                         
                                        Travis is right.
                                         
                                        It's never a life choice, like guideposts.
                                         
                                        You never say like, ah, I should go to my best friend Tommy's, uh, uh,
                                         
                                        Bar Mitzvah, but I have a date with this girl who is very attractive.
                                         
                                        Well, bros before hoes, it's not like that.
                                         
                                        It's something where he calls you and says, Hey, I'm going to invoke
                                         
    
                                        bros before hoes, I suppose, are you?
                                         
                                        Oh, you got me good.
                                         
                                        I've been trying to think of a bros before hoes, except after Joe's.
                                         
                                        It's escaping me.
                                         
                                        Except after Mo's, because if you've had Mo's burritos, you need to just go home.
                                         
                                        Bros after bros before hoes, except after Mo's.
                                         
                                        Also sounding like a neighbor in a.
                                         
                                        It does work for your literal bros, though.
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, always push comes to shove.
                                         
                                        You're real, you're real biological bros should.
                                         
                                        And we are, we will remind you, oh, we are your biological brothers.
                                         
                                        I've been doing that wrong for years, then for years.
                                         
                                        Bio bros before hoes, what you say?
                                         
                                        Biodome before hoes late to the fad on Twitter asks if Mbembe is.
                                         
                                        OK, this is hard.
                                         
                                        If Mbmbam is pronounced Mbembam, are the fans Mbembambino's?
                                         
    
                                        I think that's kind of fresh.
                                         
                                        I'm not crazy about it.
                                         
                                        Only only the only the dudes.
                                         
                                        I kind of like I kind of like Mamba's or Mbembambino's.
                                         
                                        I don't know.
                                         
                                        I we need some some guidance here.

                                        I look so good without you.

                                        Oh, Jesus, is there was a disease and it killed everyone on this planet
                                         
                                        except you and some other person who was ugly?
                                         
                                        It didn't kill you two because you were both immune to it.
                                         
                                        Kind of like in the movie.
                                         
    
                                        I am legend.
                                         
                                        Weird.
                                         
                                        Except opposite.
                                         
                                        Would you kill yourself or would you continue living and have a sexual
                                         
                                        relationship with that one ugly person?
                                         
                                        Oh, my God.
                                         
                                        Is this person asking, would you rather kill yourself than fucking ugly?
                                         
                                        Not just yourself.
                                         
    
                                        Exactly.
                                         
                                        Would you would you rather bring humanity to an end?
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Or or stick it out.
                                         
                                        That is speaking of confidence.
                                         
                                        That's got to be like the worst hit, like two people left.
                                         
                                        You look at them and just say, well, that ends this chapter of humanity.
                                         
                                        I suppose dead.
                                         
    
                                        Just make sure you say something to him before because I wanted to live with that.
                                         
                                        I want I want the that's how humanity should go out with a sad person.
                                         
                                        Too ugly to have sex with.
                                         
                                        Not with a bang, but with a suicide or a double.
                                         
                                        Hey, why don't you just kill that other person?
                                         
                                        I mean, doesn't that solve your problem or just solve here?
                                         
                                        If you don't want to have sex with this ugly person because you're the last
                                         
                                        person on earth, just don't have sex with and don't kill yourself.
                                         
    
                                        Why do you have to kill yourself?
                                         
                                        Yeah, or just junk on him.
                                         
                                        Did whatever.
                                         
                                        Did did the disease also destroy all the bags in the world?
                                         
                                        Come on.
                                         
                                        Come on.
                                         
                                        You take care of this.
                                         
                                        But don't.
                                         
    
                                        OK, don't kill yourself.
                                         
                                        Please, for all of us, just start.
                                         
                                        Although, you know what?
                                         
                                        I was going to say they should not bring humanity to a halt.
                                         
                                        But think about it.
                                         
                                        Half ago, kids, nobody wants that whole human race.
                                         
                                        Like does that that gene will never come out of the pool.
                                         
                                        The ugly gene, whatever.
                                         
    
                                        Me, all my father, yeah, I'm one 16th ugly.
                                         
                                        My great, great grandmother was ugly.
                                         
                                        I hate my bim bam.
                                         
                                        I'd really like to.
                                         
                                        Hey, I'd really like to have one of my questions answer on the show,
                                         
                                        but my life isn't interesting enough that I have any questions.
                                         
                                        Is there any you're doing it wrong, dude?
                                         
                                        Is there any way you guys can help me out to come up with a question to ask you?
                                         
    
                                        All right, I'm so glad you asked.
                                         
                                        This is a little bit before we get into this, this is a little bit like
                                         
                                        the could God make a rock so big that even he couldn't lift a thing, right?
                                         
                                        Like this is pretty spacey.
                                         
                                        This is we come up with a question that we couldn't answer.
                                         
                                        We may make this out of existence.
                                         
                                        But we do.
                                         
                                        We do need to address some things.
                                         
    
                                        OK, that have been happening in our lives
                                         
                                        in the life of the show.
                                         
                                        We're so happy that people have been sitting in questions.
                                         
                                        I was like from episode one, we started getting more than enough questions
                                         
                                        that we needed to put an episode together.
                                         
                                        And that's awesome.
                                         
                                        That's really great.
                                         
                                        But they've started to take a turn.
                                         
    
                                        What kind of turn?
                                         
                                        A turn towards the creepy.
                                         
                                        And I'm not saying all of them.
                                         
                                        If your episode, if your question is on on the show, it's not because it was creepy,
                                         
                                        but I don't know.
                                         
                                        I don't know how to address this because I don't want to sound ungrateful
                                         
                                        because I am super, super grateful.
                                         
                                        Stop asking us about poop.
                                         
    
                                        That's a good first step.
                                         
                                        If that is even in there, even as a concept, just edit it out.
                                         
                                        I'm not not good.
                                         
                                        Not a good question, because we probably won't read that on the show.
                                         
                                        I can't even say that because I'm coming.
                                         
                                        I have my my my traffic is rerouted through China.
                                         
                                        And they they censor anything
                                         
                                        scatological that I talk about.
                                         
    
                                        So that's pretty that's pretty wack.
                                         
                                        Speaking of wack, maybe don't ask creepy questions about like.
                                         
                                        Jane, oh, or J.O.
                                         
                                        Or J.O.
                                         
                                        Because that's that jingle won't get read either.
                                         
                                        Or Kimbo Slice, you know that?
                                         
                                        Don't ask me those things.
                                         
                                        Just ask us just ask a straight up question.
                                         
    
                                        True from your own life, not made up because we know if you're making things up.
                                         
                                        It's pretty obvious you said and made up things and like they're funny.
                                         
                                        And we appreciate the humor and like it's so awesome that you want to share
                                         
                                        that that funny story with us.
                                         
                                        But it didn't happen.
                                         
                                        We're not going to read it on the show, probably.
                                         
                                        I'd say what I would like to see if you can't come up with a question
                                         
                                        or if you've had a question before and you followed our advice,
                                         
    
                                        I would like to know how that worked out for you.
                                         
                                        We can maybe read some of those.
                                         
                                        You should. I would remind you, never follow our advice.
                                         
                                        But if you do, I think the best thing
                                         
                                        liable, the best thing I can tell you is to ask for advice about something.
                                         
                                        Don't like ask a question like, what's your favorite type of hot dog?
                                         
                                        But but ask for advice because it's an advice show or do it.
                                         
                                        That one guy did and send us pictures of his girlfriend.
                                         
    
                                        That works, too. Yeah, that was pretty cool.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I like that.
                                         
                                        Tell us how fat you are.
                                         
                                        So either ask for advice, tell us how fat you are.
                                         
                                        Or send emails about how much you like Griffin.
                                         
                                        Just stats, bats, please.
                                         
                                        I have a two year old son who is awesome.
                                         
                                        And lately, everybody thinks that Catherine never is like,
                                         
    
                                        I have a two year old kid who's dumb, boring. He's a whack.
                                         
                                        Do something fun, stupid.
                                         
                                        I think I have another one.
                                         
                                        Oh, ever since I was a little girl, I only wanted one child.
                                         
                                        And now I'm not sure if I really want another child or I miss having a baby
                                         
                                        because my son is getting older.
                                         
                                        What to do? Oh, man, that's pretty that's true.
                                         
                                        I think it would be pretty lonely growing up an only child.
                                         
    
                                        I think you should probably have three kids.
                                         
                                        I think that's about the right number and three boys, three boys.
                                         
                                        Three beautiful bouncing baby boys.
                                         
                                        Two year old is pretty good.
                                         
                                        Let's have another one, though, Catherine. Let's I want you.
                                         
                                        OK, one.
                                         
                                        You're asking the wrong.
                                         
                                        This is you're doing it wrong. OK.
                                         
    
                                        You're you shouldn't ask us if you should have a child.
                                         
                                        But if you do and I'm going to wholeheartedly insist that you do now,
                                         
                                        it you have to name it something show related
                                         
                                        because it's very existence is thanks to my brother, my brother.
                                         
                                        We're basically we basically are going to have a son.
                                         
                                        The three of us are going to have a son pretty soon.
                                         
                                        Yeah, we're going to be your child's godparents where it's Podfather.
                                         
                                        Holy shit. I love it.
                                         
    
                                        And that's got to be trademarked somewhere.
                                         
                                        We did just the copy.
                                         
                                        You're right.
                                         
                                        The. Yeah, I want you to do is when you get ready
                                         
                                        for the baby making times, however that works, yeah, play this episode.
                                         
                                        Put us on in the background
                                         
                                        because we want our son to have a strong, confident voice
                                         
                                        in his in his life that he can.
                                         
    
                                        He knows that he can turn to whenever he needs anything except for money.
                                         
                                        Yeah, and make sure you play our show on headphones
                                         
                                        on your belly, like I see on TV sometimes with with a Mozart and stuff.
                                         
                                        Baby Einstein tapes.
                                         
                                        We should make baby Einstein tapes.
                                         
                                        That'd be great.
                                         
                                        But it's cool instead of smart.
                                         
                                        We make it like for a mission.

                                        And and make sure when you get your t shirt, I want to see pictures
                                         
                                        of everybody wearing t shirts and like we can make a page on the site
                                         
                                        where people can just and and not just wearing the t shirt.
                                         
                                        I would like to see it in provocative places like places where perhaps
                                         
                                        Hey, Jeffrey T shirt isn't appropriate.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, like a funeral.
                                         
                                        Yeah, especially a funeral.
                                         
    
                                        Nothing turns a funeral into a funeral like a T shirt.
                                         
                                        And nothing turns a funeral into a funnel like a funnel.
                                         
                                        And if you know someone who's good at making websites,
                                         
                                        I think we could use a new one.
                                         
                                        So let us know kind of I'm looking at our website right now.

                                        But so we just adopt an Ethiopian family to make us a website.
                                         
                                        Make that website as quick as you want.
                                         
    
                                        But do make it. We do insist that you make it.
                                         
                                        And make sure you subscribe to the show and rate the show.
