Hey My Mom's Basement listeners, you can find our episodes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube, and Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. People said we want more, we want more casual conversations with your friends. I said who better to call up than one of my best friends in the world, Glenny Balls. What's up fam? I think this is my first time on My Mom's Basement since Skinner. We did the Skinner thing. We did the Skinner thing. That was a while ago. I could scourge that up pretty quickly because I Instagrammed it. Let's look it up quick. We'll figure this out real, real quick. I'm going to say it was November. That's going to be my guess. I have no idea. I feel like I've lost concept of time. I feel like last month

was February, but it wasn't. We're loading. I see this beautiful picture of me with Darth Maul. I can mention that because we're on my mom's basement. Very Star Wars friendly show. True. But yeah, this thing's not loading, but I'll let you know. I think it's November.

Wait, just loaded. There's so many old pictures of me on here. I trust you. I bet you. I'm such a whore for old photos of myself. I bet you're dead on. You're like usually, you know, November 4th, 2019. Boom. There you go.

How do I do it? How do I do it? I don't know. That was a fun time though. If you haven't listened to that interview, go back, listen to it. It's pretty evergreen. I feel like most episodes of My Mom's Basement are because we're usually talking about something from the past, but you go back to that that one we're just talking about the legacy of skinner basically exactly it's great interview it's pretty fucking cool too enjoyable but this is a fun interview i set this interview up first time i've ever done this via twitch chat last night i was watching my man

glenny balls on outlast which is a game that i had never seen before you were telling me it's pretty popular apparently it's like a main telling me it's pretty popular, apparently. It's like a main horror game. It's known as one of our, not tech guys, but one of our social guys with Barstool Game Time with the Hoogans, Unfiltered Nerd, sent me, after he did that Five Nights at Freddy's, he sent me a whole list of horror games to try. And he said Outlast is unanimously the most scary game of all time.

People know that. It's kind of like, oh like the godfather's the best movie ever like atlas scariest game ever really you know what i would imagine would be that game is in my head it's slenderman remember like there's a slendy game i do how to play slendy next you gotta play that that was legendary back honestly i got i don't want to sound like a hardo or anything but i really don't think atlas is that scary io or anything, but I really don't think I was that scary. I fucking love that energy. But I was watching your stream. It was a good time.

I mean, you're saying that, but I watched you, you know, jump to the fucking rafters. It was hysterical. And then I just messaged you and said, do you want to do my mom's basement tomorrow? And we set up this interview and then something that I never expected in a million years but something I'm so delighted about on Wednesday you me and Zah are going to drive through the Six Flags Safari together I cannot wait I don't know why I was thinking I was thinking last week I was

like damn I wonder if the Bronx Zoo is open because I've been itched for a zoo I love a zoo I love a zoo too I love a zoo so much we We'll talk zoos in a second. Yeah, we can talk zoos in a second. But, so I'm thinking to myself, what's that? And then I'm thinking,

all right, you know, I'm doing nothing. I can drive to Six Flags. Why not? Let's see if that thing's open. They got the safari open. I've done that probably like 10, 15 years ago

and it's a fun time. I've never done it. And then, oh, it's great. And then I was on the cup, me and Zah were recording The Cousins on last Thursday and I'm sitting there

and I'm like, I feel like Zah would appreciate a safari and Zah lives in Jersey so why not? I'll be the cut. Me and Zah were recording The Cousins on last Thursday. And I'm sitting there. I'm like, I feel like Zah would appreciate a safari. And Zah lives in Jersey. So why not? I'll be like, all right, Zah, come. I said, Zah, come. And then I saw you last night. I'm like, shit, Bob's in Jersey as well.

I think Bob would love it as well. So we're going to do a little trio trip to fucking safari. I can't wait. I'm so excited about it. Like I said, I've never actually done it. And I'm a huge zoo person. We can talk zoos now. I think back in the day, actually, like when we were very young, we could leave the windows open and the monkeys could come to your car,

but I think that's not a thing anymore. But it's still cool. Like you can still run around. Like you drive around. You can see a zebra. I remember when I went, probably I was like 13, saw these two zebras absolutely fucking to no end. Oh, wow.

You see how big a zebra's dick is? It's fucking outrageous. It's probably like a horse. I've seen a zebra's dick is it's fucking out right it's like it's probably like a horse i've seen like a horse dick it's crazy and they were just getting it on cars going by they were just really doing it it's great nature dude this quarantine has made me appreciate nature like never before like i live in northern new jersey and we have a balcony you could see out into the forest it's awesome to see deer it's awesome to see like some cool birds when you see like a bright red cardinal or a blue jay it's always like whoa that's amazing against the forest even the other day turkeys the other day massive turkeys they just like i think they were fucking too because they saw one male go

into the forest and then the female followed it like oh those turkeys are about to get it on the other day i was at the beach with my buddy, and we post up in front of us, there's these two birds. They weren't seagulls. They were like black birds with a white head and a long orange beak. And they were talking. They were like doing all that. Next thing I know, they have one of their babies. They were

nurturing the baby. The little baby chick was there. It was fucking awesome. It was like giving birth? It wasn't giving birth, but they were just trying to nurture the baby. and then i saw it was like all her show was 10 feet from it it was it was nature it was beautiful yeah all that what is your favorite zoo experience do you have a favorite like thing at the zoo uh oh you're saying like a favorite exhibit or animal or something like that yeah like maybe a specific one or just in general anything so i'm a really big fan of penguins whenever they have like a a specific one or just in general anything so i'm a really

big fan of penguins whenever they have like a penguin on cave or enclave whatever they call it um and there's a big group of them i love that i love the monkeys when i like the i guess the groups of animals together where you could see them interacting with each other you could see like oh look those are the friends over there those are those guys over there i'm trying to think of other things. In New Jersey, we have like Vanstone Park. That's a zoo that I went to like for my birthday so many years growing up. We already take my nephew, you know, for his birthday.

That zoo, it's tiny, but it's nice. Bronx Zoo, obviously. What else do I like in this zoo? I mean, up here even we have like in northern New Jersey, people have farms that you could drive past. And me and my mom always find ourselves like when we're going to ShopRite or wherever, we'll drive past one by accident. We always stop. We're like, look at the fucking horses. Oh, my God, look at those horses.

That's why I'm so excited about the safari. It's like, man, horses are exciting to me. It's very cool. I mean, i remember when we were in houston for the super bowl like in 2017 and i was doing like this tourism thing and i went to the zoo in houston and their elephant exhibit was out of bounds it was awesome oh wow it was legitimately like you just walked through an elephant park they were right next to me they were 10 feet away from me no no fence? There was a huge fence, of course,

but it wasn't like an exhibit where you walk into it. It was just like a very see-throughable chain link fence. It was very, very cool. And also, I'm a big gorilla guy. I love a gorilla. I'm a sucker for a gorilla. I like the orangutan ones. You know the orangutans?

The red ones? What is he called? He he's gonna look that up because he's a main character in a plan of the apes oh maurice red yeah maurice yes maurice fucks maurice i mean he's just a man he helps out the main guy caesar always a good guy you could always count on him he's not gonna turn coat yeah he's an orangutan he's just an orangutan i love those guys i really just love a nice just classic gorilla i think they're great they're extremely extremely fascinating to me yeah i always remember uh one of my favorite things was remember that show on probably spike i would guess it was on where they would do like fictional um fights

oh you're talking like they would do like Jesse the Kid versus so and so. They would simulate it and they would do like the weapon. I remember there was like a unit one. It would be like Genghis Khan against the mob or some shit like that. Dude, I loved that show. And my friends would bet on that show

in school. They would bet on who would win and I knew this one kid, Matt Anstead. He was watching the shows on his DVR the night before. What a bastard. I remember there was one where it wasn't like that, but they did animals. And I always found this fascinating. It was a gorilla, a silverback ape against a cheetah, I think. And the cheetah was obviously heavily favored.

But then the cheetah, like a fucking dum-dum, jumps at the ape to try to finish him. The ape sidesteps and just pounds it down with the hand like you know how many pounds of pressure is like apes fucking oh yeah and he just broke his spine i was like this sick unbelievable it's like a big gorilla fan i think we talked about it with yp maybe we said an mma game like a video game would be awesome with animals if you did like you know super awesome versions of the animal we wouldn't want the animal abuse people coming at us the pita version so we'd have to do the kung fu panda style like cartoonish versions of them but imagine that like a panda versus a fucking uh jaguar and same thing like

a sidestep and then a fucking i kind of wish for like gaming that they would come out with more of a game kind of not like mortal kombat but a little 1v1 game that could be anything, animals, humans. I kind of liked to do that in 2020. Were you into fighting games ever? Did you ever fuck with fighting games or no? I had Fight Night Round 5. Oh, yeah. I only played as Butterbean. I never did the

campaign and that was pretty much it. I was very confused by that game. Aside from that, fighting games and well, one that i always loved actually we should probably remember this was like one of the godzilla games where you would just land on an island and we've talked about it before yeah because it's obviously a great game fucking like mech godzilla and destroyer and mothra but uh not aside from that no it's mostly sports games and cod so you've been crushing it with the hooligans,

with Honk, with Smitty, with Mooj, everyone. I think your streams have been legitimately hilarious. I'm going to get into the streaming game, by the way. I know, you're getting your camera. I'm excited about that. I think I'm getting my camera today. I'm pretty sure it's going to show up today. I'm going to do, to start, Jedi Fallen Order. A lot of people have requested that, the Star Wars thing.

And then when I get back to the city, I'll do Spider-Man on PS4 as well because I love playing that game. That is the most fun I've had playing a video game in forever. Other than Warzone. I guess I actually have been having fun playing Warzone and shit. Warzone's fun. It's generally

not my favorite. I really don't love it, but obviously we play it on stream. My favorite COD thing is that I love that gunfight. I really don't love it, but, like, obviously we play it on stream. My favorite COD thing is I love that gunfight. I'm a gunfight. You know what's weird is since I started playing Warzone, I haven't been having as much fun playing everything else in COD. Like, everything else in COD, I'm like, eh, I'd rather just play Warzone all the time.

Warzone, the problem with me really is, like, when it's just me and Smitty playing or it's me and White Sox, or it's me, Smitty, and White Sox Dave. Like I feel bad saying it, but White Sox Dave is so bad that it makes it not fun because at Warzone, actually, if you're playing to win, it's a fucking blast. It's a great time. Yeah. Sometimes you're not.

And then like sometimes it's White Sox Dave and Smitty. You're screaming at each other. Smitty's screaming at me. Smitty's making you go to the hospital every game. I love the hospital though. Then it's just bad vibes. Like Smitty yells. He thinks he's Don Juan. He thinks he's making you go to the hospital every game. I love the hospital, though. Then it's just bad vibes. Like, Smitty yells. He thinks he's Don Juan.

He thinks he's the best player in the world. He's horrendous, too. So then he yells at me. I get mad, and then it goes downhill. But if you're, like, actually playing with Muj, it's great. Yeah. It's so much fun. The other day, me, Hank, we were waiting for Smitty to get on,

and he was having some problems, thankfully. So me, Hank, and Muj were playing. And, like, me and Hank aren't the best, like me and hank got like a six eight kill game it's a big deal like we're playing mooch mooch has like 12 kills he's just commanding us hank had eight kills i had six kills we were just in sick in sick and it was a great time like that's like the most fun but when you're playing warzone how much would a player like me who i would say is a little below average weigh a player like moods down because i feel bad playing with good players on cod like i genuinely just feel bad but honestly every good player we've

come across is an absolute sweetheart and like they don't care about it they're all very supportive but do you weigh them down in the game do you feel no because you're also in they're also usually in your lobby so they're playing worse players as well oh true so like even like the other night when me and jerry ferrar played with uh this guy quavo kenny from optic the guy was a fucking animal and it's like fun to play with them because you just know that you can stay by them and you pick up some kills from them they're they're just great like they they lead you you just follow and it's a great time it's a lot of fun but when you're just playing with just terrible players like i'm not saying I'm even good. When you're playing with three bad guys,

it's just rough. It's rough. It's rough out there on the streets because you just die. You just go and go and go. I love gunfight. I'm a gunfight guy. Another thing that I wanted to bring up,

I've been watching some classic movies recently. I've been like in the mood to just watch like classics. I tweeted it. I've had a list during quarantine i've been trying to bang out the list well i wanted to ask you about it because i saw that you tweeted about the king of comedy and i've never seen that that's like actually still on my list and you were talking about it i watched two scarier movies recently the thing and the shining and i i just think it's funny because you have that thing where you, you will play the horror

video games. You will read the horror movie synopsis is on Wikipedia, but you won't watch the horror movies. You texted me during quarantine. You were like, dude, I'm doing it. I'm watching a horror movie. I said, what are you watching? You were like it too. I was like, unreal. I said, it's not even that scary. I think you'll be all right. And you texted back three minutes later and said, I already shut it off. I was horrified. I'm mostly scared of gore. I'm not a gore guy. The possibility of gore scares me the most.

Yeah, you wouldn't like the thing then. I don't know if you would like The Shining either. I think I actually saw someone in your chat last night. You said Saw is your favorite. Like, I cannot watch Saw for the life of me. Yeah, someone said, what's your favorite horror franchise? I would say it's probably Saw because that's like the one that my sister like literally like sawing off like arms and shit like i can't i can't do that no fucked up i mean the few hard movies i've

watched in my life that i've enjoyed i mean honestly one thing i enjoyed i i started doing these few blogs like a few months ago and then i haven't done it because me and jeffy lower i know those are good blogs but fucking guy never gets back to me. Too busy with the fucking dozen? Yeah, he's too busy with a dozen for me. Then last week, he watched my hard stream and he texted me. He was like, oh, that was funny. We actually got to do these videos. I'm like, yeah, I know.

Well, if you Jeff D'Lo. Yeah, fucking go get your hair cut. But nonetheless, some of them are interesting. Rosemary's Baby, have you ever seen that? No. Classic though. I know that. I read the synopsis and like watched the YouTube videos.

Fucking really interesting. Like I'm terrified by that devil shit. It's mostly satanic stuff but it is interesting. Some of it's interesting. And then yeah there are other movies like King of Comedy

was obviously isn't hard but that I suggest you watch it. It was really really good. I gotta check that out. I gotta check out Taxi Driver too. That's another one. I watched Taxi Driver in my cinema class at Albany freshman year. Oh wow. So I got a few's another one. I watched Taxi Driver in my cinema class at Albany.

Oh, wow. So I got a few classics in there. I watched The Graduate. Yep, I watched that in my high school film class. Graduate, Taxi Driver, Platoon was one we watched. I would say that one again. Men Like Cowboy. Men Like Cowboy was good.

I like Men Like Cowboy a lot. My mom said one of the funniest things yesterday. We were watching The Shining together because she had never seen it either. And she'll watch movies with me pretty frequently. And I said, Mom, what's the movie that you would say scared you the most? Like as a kid, what was scary to you? And she said, I don't know. She said, I think it might be The Exorcist because The Exorcist seemed like it could really happen to you. You know, unlike one of those Michael Myers movies. And I was i was like mom that's such a funny italian thing to say that you know the devil could get into your soul and worship you and that is more realistic than someone putting on a mask

and killing you i will say my dad is a big horror guy he always says halloween is his is his that's scared him the most he loves halloween j Kravitz is like a Halloween fanatic. He is a Halloween nut. Speaking of like stuff your mom said, my aunt, I guess my great aunt, she's older now, obviously,

but she was, in 1968, she was pregnant. Her name is Rosemary. And all those like trailers from the commercials and shit, she was horrified apparently. Oh no. Rosemary's baby.

But, and it's a creepy commercial i watched some of the trailers too like they don't tell you anything they're just like something's happening to rosemary's baby and then you just see like the devil on like a hill it's terrifying that that's how all of those old horror movies were that like the trailers for them when it were like the exorcist coming soon you won't want to miss this. And then it's like... And the theaters probably went friggin' nuts for all of them. Can you imagine people throwing up in the theaters for those movies? See, I feel like there is

a difference of horror, though, than the ones we just mentioned, like The Exorcist. I feel like the demon shit is kind of in a different category than the other classics, like Freddy, Nightmare on elm street um what's the fucking jason one friday the 13th friday the 13th yeah halloween i think those are more monster variety kind of if you get what i'm saying whereas the other ones like demons like

satan shit yeah i and i assume like i'm not even i like horror movies but i'm not like in the horror movie world like i am like say the superhero movie world. Like I am like, say the superhero movie world. I assume that people that are into horror movies have like super, you know, specific subcategories for every single one. Like I'm sure even the saw thing would, they'd be like, that's like torture gore, like the evil bed or, or I know super gore. Yeah. I'll definitely enjoy like some of the other, most of these Stephen King stuff. I watched Carrie recently, actually.

Carrie is very good. I enjoy Carrie. You ever seen Carrie? Wow, no, I haven't. I mean, you could watch some scary movies. I feel like Carrie's not even really a horror. I don't know. See, I haven't seen it, so it's hard for me to say. I definitely do not want to sit down and watch that one we've talked about.

The same director as Midsommar. It came out recently. Oh, Hereditary? I've watched that that on youtube i cannot sit there and watch hereditary do you think the do you think the vintage thing helps i think it does a little bit like i know it's the gore it's not going to be too bad and hereditary from what i watched was just out of world yeah no hereditary is fucking crazy i for people listening to this podcast i recommend you watch Hereditary if you're into horror movies and Midsommar, Midsommar, whatever you say it.

It's spelled funny. Hereditary is one of those movies where I was captivated the entire way through. I watched it with Trent and Trent was like pulling the drawstrings of his hoodie clothes like he was Kenny from South Park because he didn't even want to see.

And then it ended and I was like, I didn't understand a fucking lick of that but i think it was like good or i enjoyed it i gotta recommend this as well if you're watching hereditary if you're watching these horror movies one of my favorite things to do is get a little high on a little three chi before you get a little stoned listen three chi isn't like weed it's's different. So what it is, is it's THC derived from hemp, not derived from cannabis and marijuana and stuff. It's a cannabinoid product. It's 100% federally legal. It's made in the USA from USA grown hemp. So you take this, it takes away the laziness. It takes away a little bit of the anxiety, a little bit of the paranoia, the mental fogginess. You put on a horror movie and oh my God, you're living in the horror movie. It's amazing. You could eat the edibles. You could do the

tinctures. You put the little droplets under your tongue. You do the vape things. There are so many ways to do it. They sent it to me. I think the stuff is awesome. I use this stuff all the time. I use it every single night before I go to bed, before I watch a horror movie, before I watch a fight, before I watched Dustin Poirier versus fucking Dan Hooker this weekend. What a brawl that was. What an absolute war. This stuff is awesome. You must be 21 to purchase.

Again, it's Delta 8 THC, 100% hemp-derived, grown in the USA. This stuff is amazing. You'll feel functional yet clear-headed instead of lazy and paranoid. Go to their website, the number 3CHI.com. You use the promo code BASEMENT, receive 5% off your order. By the way, you know this product is good. You know a sponsor is awesome. When I'm going to the website myself i'm using my

own promo code and i'm buying more for myself more than they sent me that's what i'm doing with three chi maybe you need some of that glenny i could go for some three chi man you know i'm not i'm not the biggest uh guy of that stuff but she sounds great i mean i know you're not like you're you're usually not a weed guy maybe yeah maybe maybe that's what you need. Maybe that's the alternative. It's like the less anxiety, less paranoia. It's perfect. I'm down to try. Hey, speaking of that, my New Year's resolution,

I don't know if we're going to be able to do it. That just popped in my head because of coronavirus. It's a shame. What's your New Year's? Oh, the road trip? No, shrooms. Although the road trip would be nice. Oh, shrooms.

No, I think we could still do shrooms. We could still do it. Come on. If we're planning something. Yeah, we've so, I don't know. Can we talk about this? Yeah, we could talk about this. It's my long story.

It's just shrooms. Yeah, it's just shrooms. It's not like we're talking about doing like meth. Yeah, no, it's me, Glennie, Rhea, I think Hank. I think Roan was involved originally. We all want to do shrooms. Fran and Kate volunteered to be the group moms. Correct. Fran and Kate were going to chaperone and just make sure things didn't get out of hand, things were safe, things were controlled.

Wait, I got a sneeze coming on. That was an underwhelming sneeze. Good God. I held it in. What the fuck was that? Bro, I held it in. You have a real sneeze. I didn't want to blow people's eardrums out. I was waiting to hear a nice one. I was waiting in. What the fuck was that? Bro, I held him in. Give a real sneeze. I didn't want to blow people's eardrums out.

I was waiting to hear a nice one. I was waiting to hear my head get popped. No, coronavirus, you got to hold him in. You got to sneeze into your elbow now. But they were going to watch, make sure things didn't get out of hand. We wanted to do shrooms for the first time. Now, who knows? But I think we could still do that.

We can do controlled, socially distanced shrooms we can't i mean we could think of new things we got to do at the office when we're going back to the office next week i know you've been telling me you want to do a pup punk unplugged which would be a delight i would be very yeah that that that's a big dream of mine is let's put together a pup unplugged set list i think it'd be easy for us to organize i think it'd be easy for us to rehearse together be safe it'd be fun if we hosted by the dog yeah like a native night presents yes that would be the way to do it absolutely all of us wearing masks except the singers maybe the other new year's resolution that we should talk about on this podcast just talk into into uh you know talk into fruition eventually the road trip we were planning on

doing a road trip this summer before coronavirus or this spring i don't know we we started planning it and then corona hit immediately you've wanted to go to key west immediate uh you've wanted to go to key west forever down in florida i've never been there but i'm like i'm down for a road trip so i'd love to do that with you. We start planning it, and fucking Corona hit. It was going to be the most electric content ever. Imagine you and me driving down the coast of the entire United States of America. I still really, really do want to do this.

Dave Portnoy, if you're watching this, which I'm sure you are, me and Robbie road trip to Key West when coronavirus is over because I would really like to do that. You know Key West is like my number one destination. It's a passion project of mine. I do look at that beautiful little bridge. It's a passion project. Maybe we can meet YP there.

We could be on Parks and Outdoors Season 8 and it would be great. But I really just want to drive down there. I'm kind of jealous right now. My cousin actually, his girlfriend lives in Montana. And she's been here. They just drove back to drive down there. I'm kind of jealous right now. My cousin, actually, his girlfriend lives in Montana. And she's been here. They just drove back to her house together, which to Montana is a 36-hour drive. But it doesn't seem like a great road trip, I don't think. Dude, not a good road trip at all.

I did a road trip to Columbus two weeks ago, and the drive is not good. And the thing they don't tell you about the route 80 drive is that there's a hundred dead deer like just dead deer everywhere everywhere you look there's your brain splattered there's yeah pennsylvania is the most boring state in the world driving through pennsylvania is the woods you see oh williamsport penn state pittsburgh and then that oh you you're in Ohio now. Welcome to Ohio or West Virginia, whatever. The deer thing scarred me more than hereditary scarred me.

There's so many dead deer on Route 80, people don't talk about it. And truck drivers, by the way, I love truck drivers. I come from a family of truck drivers. My mom's side, my grandpa was a truck driver. Her brothers were truck drivers. They were driving family of truck drivers my mom's side you know her my grandpa was a truck driver her brothers were truck drivers they they were driving like assholes the entire time the scariest thing is the drive down i've driven to fort lauderdale one time and after a few times i've driven to wake forest too i think it's route 85 the scariest thing is call it route root route potato patata but um they say not that they say that fucking happens

yeah like when you're in the gist of it like in the middle of virginia and north carolina it's a two-lane road and it's just your lane and then the truck driver's lanes and it's so horrifying passing those 18 wheelers it is there was one time i was driving me my buddy was driving 2 a.m pouring rain you're every time you pass one of the 18 wheelers like i'd like hold on to the friggin handle of the car like please god on my drive back it was pouring rain. Every time you pass one of the 18 wheelers, like I'd like hold on to the frigging handle of the car. Like, on my drive back, it was pouring rain.

And I was like, my face was pressed up to the windshield. This is one week after I got into my first accident, by the way, if you're wondering where my head space is at. And the only thing I could see was like the red brake light, 70 miles an hour on route 80, two trucks on my left and right.

I felt like I was Luke Skywalker, like in the Trench Run in the Death Star when he's like in that little tunnel. Actually, legitimately something that I almost killed me, MB, and I think Riggs one time. We were going to Tuscaloosa from the Atlanta airport. And for some reason, I was driving. I've never seen something like this happen in my life. Out of the blue, it was a beautiful day. Like obviously I've seen sunsets before, but it started fucking downpouring,

torrential downpour to the point where we cannot see a thing. And we were in a rental car. We had no idea how to put the windshield wipers on because it came out of such a, out of the blue. And I literally was driving blind for like 20 seconds. It was terrifying, horrifying. And then the was driving blind for like 20 seconds. It was terrifying. Horrifying. The most terrifying thing in the world.

And then the rain randomly just stopped and we were okay. But I thought MB and Riggs' lives were going to be on my hands. Oh my God. Riggs would have been so mad at you in the afterlife if you killed him. You would have never heard the end of it. Dude, there was a time in Tuscaloosa that first night we got the Taco Bell and Riggs got,

they gave him his like Gordita crutch. I'd never seen a more angry human in my life it was horrifying riggs almost killed me behind the wheel once the first time we went to uh augusta like the first augusta sign we saw he tried to like boomerang it or something and we came dangerously close to dying right before we got there it would have been a hell of an ironic story and an end to the foreplay boys you know what's a friggin a great road trip that a bro told me about one time one time i forgot where it was exactly one time ron told me he did a road trip it was like philly to nashville then down to new orleans then like through texas and new mexico and like arizona to i think san diego yeah i think he did that sounds like a great road trip i'd be down with that

i want to drive like the driving is underrated how much that sucks yeah like when you're four hours through an eight hour road trip and you're like i got four more hours to go that sucks and that's not even a long road trip that's a short trip i want want to go to, like, freaking Cajun country. That's on my list. Have you ever been there? No, I have not. I would love to have, like, legit gumbo, a nice po-bo. I feel like all the people are great. The whole Cajun country seems very cool.

I always say that. I remember a few weeks ago, which we did out, actually. It was the day Bourdain died. My favorite Bourdain episode ever is the Cajun country episode. It's not New Orleans, it's Cajun country. So he's like out in the fields. And he's in this frigging,

I highly suggest you got anyone listening to this watch. It's awesome. He's in the fields and it's Friday night. They're having a barbecue, all these people, like 50 people, probably a hundred people, having a barbecue. They got a band playing. And then they wake up early, 6 a.m. Saturday.

They let Bourdain, I don't know if they do the honors, but they let Bourdain shoot. They have this huge hog. He shoots the pig in the head. And then right as they shoot the pig in the head, they got the pushers there. The pushers break down the whole pig, give every single piece of each pig to the specialized chef, and they each cook every part of the pig, like, on premise.

And they have a great, huge banger band. It was awesome. It was so cool. So I'm a vacation country guy. Like I was telling you last night, actually, though, I want to go to South Carolina. I've only driven through South Carolina at like 4 a.m. So I get to enjoy it. I feel like South Carolina is a beautiful state.

I think so as well. Both Carolinas, like North Carolina and South Carolina. I've been to North Carolina a few times. I really like it. I mean, there's really good areas in North Carolina, though. I like North Carolina. South Carolina, obviously gorgeous. Honestly, also,

North Carolina, pretty free. Straight down, though, the straight down ride, you go right through Savannah. I went through Savannah at 6 a.m. I've always wanted to go to Savannah, Georgia. That's a city that seems very cool to me. Supposedly one of the most haunted cities in the country. You have the most interesting

geographical interest to me. Savannah, Georgia is not a place that would ever stick out on the map to me, but that's what makes balls balls, I guess. I know from growing up reading about ghosts and shit, I know they're one of the most haunted cities. They're also one of the few cities in the country

that you can drink on the street. Huh. Well, New York you can now. We got open container laws. You cannot now. You can't drink on the street? I don't think so. I mean, you mean like people are doing it illegally? No, I think you can. I don't think so.

There's only a few cities in the country that you could legally... It's like a temporary thing. We've got an open container in New York city. It's like Vegas, obviously in new Orleans, Savannah. I think don't call me this Butte,

Montana. What are the other ones? It'd be so funny if you nailed that. I'm pretty sure it is. What a balls act cities where you can drink on the street. And then what else is there um maybe like for some reason murphy's borough tennessee is coming to me these these i've never even heard of murphy savannah georgia hood river oregon we've got any listeners there shout

out to you redricksburg texas memphis tennessee new orleans louisiana las vegas nevada i don't know you could drink on the street in Memphis. They should put that in Nashville. If I can switch the cities. Shout out to our listeners in Memphis. If we got any, you can talk to him. You can fucking drink on the street. Beautiful.

Oh man. That's a good note to end it on. Be Montana, baby. That's one of my, one of my places I'd love to go to see. We're going to have to do the road trip. Maybe if we do the key West road trip and it goes well, we'll be able to do like that crazy road trip. We'll go to Butte.

We'll go to all the places you could drink on the street and you could have like a beer or a nooner, if you will, on every street. I mean, Bob, I'm serious about it. I genuinely do want to do it. I want to do it as well. I'm telling you. The road trip by yourself, it's a lonely road. With a buddy, it would be a great time. Maybe if it goes well, we could get the Barstool RV.

Who knows? Who knows? But no driving by me. I'll tell you what. That's my only thing. Why is it for the ashes? That's my only thing. I don't want to drive.

I don't think I can drive an RV. I would be terrified biggest thing i've ever driven was like a uh moving van one time oh my god i wouldn't drive that either from atlanta airport to clemson me and light switch got behind the wheel and i just drove drove yikes yikes no i i wouldn't drive one of those either we'll have to have you we'll have you and za on next week to do like a little uh status safari recap yeah we'll talk about how the safari went we'll do like a little segment on my mom so so uh what day does this thing come out today this is out today oh beautiful i hope

i see myself later you know you will you will great it was good talking to you thanks bob i'll see you i'll see you wednesday for the saf. What song would you like to end the podcast on? Throw it to us. Well, actually, I'm a little aggravated about this. I don't know if you saw today. Barstool Chicago put out their 90s snake draft. I feel like you think 90s, you think one hootie. So I think we've got to do a hootie song.

I would like you to rebel against them. I want to go I Go Blind. I was thinking that, I Go Blind. Only Want to Be With You is too mainstream, you know? Let Her Cry, that's too sad. We can't let her cry, right? No. Let's end on a good vibe song for the people.

Yeah, no, I want a good vibe song. So, you know, fuck it, just do Only Want to Be With You.
