I think cinema would change if aliens came to this earth. I agree. That's my point. Learn how to train your dog! You just have to, you know, lean into it. Ass first, personality second. Can we make any word a discount for Picky Boys merch? Let's do a 4th of July, like 15% off.

Use code word freedom. Code word freedom. Happy 4th of July. And happy 4th of July. All right, now I'm good. I'm all gassed out. Here we go. Every heart beats true for the red, white, and blue.

Happy 4th of July. Happy 4th of July. Independence Day, as the kids call it. Yeah, the kids. And the history books. Definitely, yeah, the history books. A cherished holiday that is hated universally by dogs. Because of the fireworks?

Because it sounds like God is outside banging on a drum. Yeah, the sky is screaming at these little creatures, and it's very scary. Yeah, I'm not much of a dog person, but that's one fact I do know, is that dogs hate 4th of July. Dude, I hate people on 4th of July. Okay, that works. It's not like we're in Long Island where people buy birthday cakes and send off a thousand fireworks and it's a little, I don't know, what is it, Macy's? Is that the ones that shoot off the dragons in the sky? but like the a lot of times just on my street they set up like this roman candle or cannonball

whatever it is and just one big firework right on my block and it's like you know something i don't i don't even trust professionals with these high explosive things but now it's just some freak that's across the street with an explosive it's just every year it worries me i love it i think I think it's fantastic because I don't want to do it because I don't want to blow my hand off. They're very dangerous things to do. And also, I don't want to go to the Macy's Fourth of July Day Parade because that's just swamped with people.

And I also don't want to go to Long Island. I mean, geez louise. So I think it's great. I mean, you get a fireworks show in your own backyard. We're celebrating our independence by being loud. That's what we do. Every day, son. Every day.

Every day, son. And, you know, I mean, on Fourth of July, we can all appreciate America. We'll all hug and appreciate America. And then we can go back to hating every part of it afterwards. Every single thing right after that. Everyone needs a day. Yeah, everyone needs one day. It's like, you know, it's like Mother's Day and Father's Day.

It's like... Everyone's got a day. Yeah, we know, like, you know, we know that, you know, I love my mom and dad. But I'll really show it on this day. I'll remind you today. Yeah. Although America probably gets a little more love. You see, like, I'm not...

Like, I'd rather just do a big 4th of July celebration. I'm not a big Pledge of Allegiance guy. That's what I'm trying to say. Okay. Okay. Pledge of Allegiance, National Anthem, kind of boring. All right. Yeah, I mean, it hasn't changed in a while, to be fair.

It's not spruced up. Boring. You know, if we see, like, you know, and also not very usual. Specifically, the National Anthem, sorry, every country has that. But the Pledge of Allegiance is a pretty odd thing. not many other countries do that like i mean like north korea does it i think and that's exactly that's not a good thing like like i mean i mean like china does it i think and russia does it but like we're in like a weird like if that the like we're in a weird place where like if we see other

countries that are our enemies doing it we're like oh this is you know propaganda that's trying to indoctrinate children but then we're like yeah let's go i pledge allegiance like pledging allegiance to the flag is a very strange line yeah i also think yeah yeah yeah i mean we're breeding a little army i pledge allegiance to the flag yeah it's so strange now like little kids are gonna go punch other non-americans yeah it's it's a little weird i i'm down to i'm down to get rid of that yeah just have a big firework i'll pledge allegiance every time no i'll pledge So, yeah, oh, yeah, every time, whenever you're about to say a start of Pledge of Allegiance, just light a firework.

And do you know what the problem was with a Pledge of Allegiance that we had to do every morning in school? It kind of got married with this is the start of the school day now, which every kid hates. So I would argue the Pledge of Allegiance actually had a negative effect on me with my patriotism, because I found out that the Pledge of Allegiance led to the worst school day ever, every time. That's what I correlated with. You still know the Pledge of Allegiance?

Yeah, yeah. That it's burned. It didn't do it. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic to which it stands. One nation, under God, indivisible, for liberty and justice for all. Well, speed run. How you doing? Play it back in slow-mo.

One nation, indivisible, for liberty and justice for all. One nation, under God, indivisible, for liberty and justice for all. I think that's it. Also, God's in there, which is strange. I mean, God's in everything. You've got to sprinkle that in there to get the whole net of people. You know, toss that line. Bring them back.

I guess so. I don't know. What about Independence Day? Do you like that movie? Will Smith? Oh, yeah. Goldblum? I don't like the second one.

Yeah, the second one wasn't good. And Will Smith wasn't in it. He went to do Sue. I also, that's one of those movies that I saw when I was such a little kid. I don't even, I really don't even remember it, so. Essentially, they kill them. Like an alien. Yeah, big aliens.

And then I was thinking, I think I saw this, like a quick sentence of this somewhere, but like, it's funny that, let's say aliens come down, right? You know, the June date's coming up. we're gonna find out all these alien secrets what they're hiding isn't it weird that they're gonna come here right because they're not not if when they come here and all the movies are just of us killing them yeah isn't that not a good look like imagine going to a place for the first time like and every single movie like every alien movie is them killing humans that i would walk in and start going you know maybe this isn't the coolest place yeah that's true no i definitely get that

but but you know i mean i guess uh it's like no no no yeah art yeah i suppose that's true i never thought about that that if we went there and then there was just like a bunch of you know but i feel like the what we think aliens the the the only thing i i the only reason i disagree here is because I think that it'd be really hard to just, like, guess what a human looks like. You know, like, what we think of as an alien, there's no shot that's what they look like. No, but the point is...

There's no shot. The point is, like, because of this information in my scenario that we know, like, someone knew what they look like and it got out there. Oh, okay, okay, okay. And they're making it, and they're just making a bunch of aliens.

Well, then, yeah, that would be a little strange. But I guess, I mean, that's a new people. And I don't even think it mattered if they looked, if they weren't autonomically correct in our movies. Just the fact that it's happening, you know? Because even if we went to an alien planet and they said, oh, what movie

is this? You're killing a lot of, it's a little war going on, interplanetary war. And they go, oh yeah, those are the humans. But if I look nothing like those creatures, I would still be a little concerned. Yeah. But, I mean, would there, we're but really, we're the

aliens. That's what they would call us. Right. That's true. No, but my point is, like, imagine... The best thing about aliens is that where aliens to the aliens. Okay, so what about this? What about all our movies are, at least 90% of our movies are us just murdering anything

that comes to our planet. Now, what if all their movies are how, it's like all, that's their love movies, you know? Like all their movies are how they love aliens and they always like, it's always a happy movie. That would be nice for us.

That would be nice for us, but I still don't think it'd be a good look for us also when they come back here. Also, I mean, I don't think when the aliens come, I don't think we're going to show them cinema first. You don't think they're going to be watching movies in the theater? I don't think they're going to be watching movies.

And in fact, I think they were going to be like, hey, let's sweep these under the rug here. Let's not show them these movies. Let's get rid of them all. Get rid of all those boxes. Show them Rocky or something. I don't know. Don't show them.

Or the Avengers. Don't show them the aliens. Well, actually, the Avengers, too. But those are mean aliens. Yeah, no, the Avengers, that's like... Maybe we can use it as a bonding opportunity. say hey look this is what we used to think you guys would do isn't that crazy we don't think you guys are so nice and their ray gun is just in behind their back like oh yeah the good thing you

said that one it was close call i mean yeah you guys are so nice we thought you were gonna have a huge ship that was gonna come down like a monolith and fucking and just disease evaporate the planet but it's nice to see that you guys offered cookies that's cool yeah exactly that's cool too so i i i think i mean i i know everybody disagrees with me here but i think that we can have a good relationship with the aliens i i would i would hope we could uh us and the aliens could co-mingle in peace a lot of people call me crazy they think i think that's impossible it would be weird that if they did live here and then we kept making movies about killing them then i then i then i wouldn't be surprised if they went okay well i mean yes and no you know it's like we got

to change our culture for you we we make a lot of movies about humans i've got a group of humans that are you know that are killing other humans because but but it's because the enemy does something bad right you know it's like it it's no hard feelings between us and the aliens it's just that in the in this portrayal these were the bad aliens yeah that's what i'd explain to these creatures yeah and i think they would reciprocate fondly yeah i hope they'd be all right unless they're called like flea borps and then the enemy and the newest film coming out is like avenge of the knee borps you know it's like yeah i see what you guys are doing here my point is i think cinema would change if aliens came to this earth i agree that's my point i agree but i think it i i think

it would be we'd be good with them i think so when we start making movies together how you doing no i mean it almost almost almost indefinitely we would just kill them ah so yeah i hope they don't show them that's that's what we do anything anything new kill it until until it develops a movement i don't know oh you're new you're new here can you give me something i don't have can you give me more power i don't have can't no dad oh yeah no no no first first we take the technology oh oh dude we're taking it anyway then we kill them if we see one glowing light on their ship that i don't know what's producing it gone we're just like here here's here is a present from earth it's our it's it's our it's our earth cube we've made it for you and then and they bring it back

to the planet and it's just a nuclear bomb. This is our new key. And, you know, but they, I mean, the chances are if they, this is the big thing

about aliens here. We've been talking about this for a while. This is the big thing about aliens is that if they come here, it's almost like a guarantee that they're smarter than us.

Whoever comes to whoever is the smarter one. Is the smarter one. Who has the better technology and has, because if we're not able to do it and go to their planet,

then something they're doing is right and they figured something out. And we're not going to lay a finger on them until they show us how to do that. Yeah, I agree. That was alien talk for the day. I was just curious about that. That was the alien talk, yes.

Christmas in July. Ever heard of that saying? Yeah, I've heard Christmas in any time people want to talk about Christmas. Like Christmas in May. No, no one ever says that. The saying is Christmas in July. Okay, why?

Because it's exactly parallel. It's like almost the exact amount of time. It's like halfway to Christmas and halfway. So it's like people say Christmas in July. On the flip end, I'm having July and Christmas. In December, I'm going to Hawaii. You're having July and December. You're having July and Christmas.

Yeah, you were right the first time. Yes. You nailed it. Okay. I was talking about July and Christmas, so that'll be fun. Yeah, you flip. I'm already wearing my lei. I already have an abundance of aloha shirts.

I heard that it's offensive to call it Hawaiian shirts, especially over there. You just call them shirts? You should call them aloha shirts. Oh. Why is it offensive? Because, I don't know. Listen, it's not my job to... To declare what's offensive or not?

dissect what whether i think it's offensive or not if someone says it is i just say okay aloha yeah no that's fair yeah that's that's that's it for me so i have a bunch of aloha shirts nice and i'm pretty excited about that i have a full repertoire i mean i'm gonna have to i have so many of these shirts i'm gonna have to choose which ones i want to bring oh i mean it's gonna be a hard thing to choose how can i narrow down between all my my children i'm definitely not bringing this one that's a bit obnoxious statue of liberty all over it oh i just noticed that that's actually pretty fire it's my fourth of july i wonder if you could pick that up i wonder if they could pick that up it blends in very well they can definitely pick that up there's one uh

this one right here yeah yeah the little on the nipple right there this one right there i saw this actually the other day you know the uh fun fact the ikea in red hook brooklyn the cafeteria has a phenomenal view of the empire state building empire state building i mean the statue liberty oh yeah i did not i didn't aren't we getting another one aren't we getting a little a little liberty sister uh yeah there's something over the like the little girl little girl little one that's like five feet tall for like two weeks i don't know why uh i don't know cute little gift from from france that one's in bronze so it's i believe closer to the actual color because it used to look copper yeah stuff like that just trips me out you know

because for for me that was something that just is all it's it's there it's been there for it might as well have been there for 3 000 years because it's just that's what i know well i'm pretty sure it happened like very soon after it doesn't take very long for copper to oxidize yeah and it's so big and by the water yeah i mean it's you know yeah you know it's not on ellis island i always thought that it's on liberty island someone played gta i did that's yeah but but it is on a different island the whole point is on ellis island you can see it and then that's where you get your paperwork done and they change your name from baba to smith yeah but isn't it also in jersey oh that's uh that's a high point of contention we don't talk about that uh technically

if you go off of maritime lines in the ocean. They're all made up anyway. Technically they argue that it is in New Jersey. We just give them the finger? But New Jersey is just like we put our

leftover stuff there. Yeah. If they want to claim it and say like, oh, the central liberty is in New Jersey then good for you. But no one's going to fly into fucking Newark if they're being a tourist, you know, and they want to see the Statue of Liberty.

Yeah, so relax, Jersey. Yeah. Is the Statue of Liberty slowly floating towards Jersey, like a centimeter a day? No. That'd be very cool. No, I don't think... We talked about this before.

New York is built on a very hard bed. Yeah, it's like a big pile of garbage. So I don't think we move very often. But isn't it, like, essentially, It's like a clutter on whatever water we're on. It's like a little clutter island. It's not supposed to be there. We made it.

That's not true. Didn't we make it? No. We just built on it? The island was already there? We made... Wasn't it all like marsh? It's not like the whole thing was just concrete.

It's a big pile of litter. You're very wrong. This is not true. So Manhattan was already this perfectly Manhattan strip of concrete? Yeah. Really? Because two rivers flow on each side of it, and so it carves out the land. And that's why there's weird, like Roosevelt Island, there's weird things in between the rivers.

Those are naturally, it's actually, early Manhattan is a great place for oysters. Fun fact. Fun fact, if you want your oysters. No, but we did not build concrete on Marsh. The bedrock underneath Manhattan is like, it's fucking like granite. It's very hard rock. Yeah, I'm not getting through that. It was not Marsh.

All right. So is it true that the continents are moving apart then, like a centimeter a thing? Yes. I don't even understand how people figure that out. And like the universe is expanding by. Eventually we'll be back. Eventually in millions and millions of years, we'll be back to Pangea. but we're all drifting apart well i mean it's a circle so so if you drift apart enough you hit

you'll hit but then wouldn't there be a point at some point where you just go the other way so then why are we drifting wouldn't we all be drifting the same way because the earth's rotation i don't think that's why we're drifting why are we drifting i a tectonic place or some shit oh well get out of here that's why we that's why we cracked in the first place but yeah i mean if you go the trench no matter what well we'll hit it we'll hit each other eventually that's cool yeah it will actually i mean again millions of years we will not see it but when it happens uh when two when two things like that two two land masses smash together that's what creates a mountain range so because they like fold on each other kind of they literally

just collide and then fold up and so uh so when that happens when the new pangea arrives then we'll have uh new mountains maybe it'll be bigger than the the other one everest i guess the other one i put see what if they're going at two centimeters i don't know although there are bigger mountains to scale from everest there there are bigger mountains everest is the biggest above sea level there's bigger mountains but but there are but there are no not even underground it's just like if a if a country if the if sits below sea level that it'll it'll take you longer like like it'll have a longer summit distance that's like measuring your dick size from your balls i don't know it should be outside it should be outside sea leveling up man basin up i mean i

suppose so but some places are you know unnaturally high like denver is like a mile above that's why called the mile high city well then that's that's the advantage the mountains in denver get that's why all the mountains move there then i don't know they don't move they don't move the mountains you're talking about uh speaking of have you uh seen netflix's newest show speaking of don't worry about it i have not seen the show speaking of no no um i'll show you well have you seen love is blind uh i actually have not but so love is blind is a show where uh you you talk to uh another person through a wall and you're not allowed to see them but you're allowed to go on dates and talk with them and then before you see them you have to marry one of them or or engage one of

them you have to get engaged okay and so you get engaged and then you're finally able to meet each other and then with and that at and during that time you're planning the wedding and and uh you know i'm not going to spoil anything but when you get to the altar who knows what's going to happen if they're going to go through with it or not are they allowed to bang through like a slit in the wall or something first they're not allowed to they're not allowed to see any physical form at all it's literally just a wall so i bet you half these people are just doing it to get laid on their wedding day no no no no no is the crowd like a sad crowd no well no but it's 90 day fiance but they're but they're like they're like a lot of them are kind of like you know 30 35 like

obviously like really really like it's very obvious that they want to be married okay that's what that's what it's not about being laid okay yeah but they want to be married that's very obvious and also if it was about being laid why would you go on the show because the whole point came to see them either way well because i don't think they'd care well either way what's what's the show okay the the point is there's a new show that uh it has a similar twist but this time uh you you can't see you can't see their face but but you go on dates in person with them so they wear and so what they do um hold on let's put a bag over their head so so it's a new show it's called sexy beasts i want to get married i want to have babies

before i'm like 26 do you have health insurance welcome to the strangest blind date ever hey how you doing how are you doing could you fall in love with someone based on personality alone what is your ideal woman personality for me is everything ass first personality second you're the best looking devil i've ever seen this is really weird right now but so they go on these dates and they're wearing these crazy prosthetics and so the whole point is just like love is blind obviously you can see if they have a body or not they got the body obviously you'll be able to see that but because the guy in the trailer says what what comes first what's most important to you and he's like what do you say ass first personality second and it was like thank you thank you i

don't know if you're gonna get the date fucking chipmunk man yeah you freaking fuck dude um but either way but the point the whole point of both shows is can you fall in love with somebody based off personality yeah i i get it even like what if you like you lift up their shirt you pull down their pants and it's like the shark and it's just still gills you know it's like this is actually what if this is a way for those creatures to actually like mingle with people and they're not actually people underneath yeah i feel like that would work yeah that would also i mean if If you were a weird, you know, like humanoid dolphin woman, then that would be a good. But it would be when the when the eventually they reveal eventually it has to has to come to an end.

No. Or they just go and they just jump into the water and swim away. It's like, oh, wow, we should have vetted these people better. Yeah. But I mean, it just looks absurd. And I'm going to love every minute of it. I think I would do that. I would.

I would do that. That seemed like a lot of fun, except again, except for the furry one. That was egregious. a lot of them are furries there's a panda there's a no but the panda didn't look like makeup it looked like like a helmet with a freaking mouth like it was makeup it's all prosthetics well that is crazy uh but yeah no i mean i would do it too it sounds fun also like you ever you ever wear a mask on like a halloween it's so much easier to uh be yourself not be yourself but but like there is there is this weird sense of like oh no one can see me so i can just like do weird shit except

Well, that's because you're on Halloween and you're blending in. In that, everyone can see you. Like, if I went to a bowling range and there was a mantis and a dolphin kissing, I would think you drugged me. But they can't see the real you. So I think there's something there about the mind. I would also get, like, if I was a cat or something, a cat man, a cat person, I'd start licking and petting my fur.

Yeah, yeah. Really, I hope they play into it. Like, the dolphin only drinks water or something, or seawater. Yeah, I mean, I think it's going to be great. So, what animal would you be dressed up as? Ooh, that's a good question. And it's not just animals. You know, there's a scarecrow there as well.

Yeah. So, it's just, like, a weird, again. That was just a Wizard of Oz Broadway star who came and, like, walked into set to be like, Oh, that guy's good. Send him. Yeah. I think I'd probably be a turtle. oh that'd be so freaking funny you have a you have a beak you have a little beak yeah well it's like it's just like turtles have a snapper well it's just that little the little like and it hangs

over a little bit of your front jaw you know yeah yeah oh a turtle that's that's fun i wouldn't call it a beak but i know what you mean that's fun oh that'd be that would look so terrifying but it's only the ninja turtle only the top of it though so that's kind of dumb oh well you want the shell you want the shell yeah if i if i can't have a shell then i'd probably pick like uh i I mean, the chipmunk was pretty fucking funny, honestly. The chipmunk was very funny. I feel like I would want something with a lot of hair. Like, I feel like I'd want a lion.

Like, I want a ridiculous mane. Oh, a lion would be really funny. Also, a giraffe would be kind of funny. How would you do a giraffe? It's just a head, you know? Oh, a giraffe head? Yeah, that's cool. I mean, if they can do a dolphin, you could pick just about any animal.

That's a good point. Yeah, no, you're right. Ooh, a shark or something? Give me some teeth. I don't know. There's so many things. There are no birds. Give me some feathers.

Oh, yeah, a bird would work. Give me some feathers, dude. I'll be a parrot. Give me a colorful beak and feathers. I'll get any person to kiss me. I hope the plot twist of the show is that they're just all furries. Maybe we'll see Chaz on the show. And this is just it.

It's not even a love is blind. This is just like furries trying to fall in love with each other's personas. Yeah, it's to advocate the non-abuse of furries or promote the culture so people don't find it as strange. Well, that's still not going to happen. Yeah, it's literally impossible. I'd go to a furry convention. Hell yeah, I'd go to a furry convention. Hell yeah, dude.

I'd go to just about any convention, weird or not, especially the weird ones. because you're always just guaranteed to find something funny is there a lot like so i was supposed to be at the i was supposed to be at the this weekend well i guess that two three weekends ago i was supposed to be at the the air guitar championships national championships and it's uh it's just national championships national championships so so so they had their their their state championships and these are the conglomerate of of of the this is the second time i use that word if everybody was keeping track um this is the this is all of the state champions coming together facing each other and then the winner of this will face in the

international championships of the world and it is an air just to describe it to people i don't know air guitar is essentially think of a lip sync you know like someone performs a lip sync like on Jimmy Fallon or whatever, think of that, but you're playing a fake guitar to a song, and you just have to, it's all about getting into it and fucking, you know what I mean? And so you were going to watch someone who did in fact make it to this round.

Uh-huh, yes. Yeah. There was somebody in there who won, who was who was going to his fifth time i think that he made it to nationals uh and i was going to watch i was going to watch him see the thing is like you want to make fun of it right i so desperately want to make fun of it but if he's making it like what if he won what if he wins no it's the championship how do you make fun of someone who beat out all these people like i don't it's one of those things where it's like kind of cringe but in a funny way like in a good way and

also i'm happy when they win like we were watching the dog show a while ago not comparable but i'm just saying like you guys are like we were watching the westminster dog show and we were having of the time of our life we we we were how we were having way more enjoyment than like you know your average baseball game yeah watching your average basketball game we were we were going go go go are you kidding me are you kidding me oh my god

learn how to train your dog you just have to you know lean into it and kind of go with it and like hey that's my guy that's my air guitar guy and I fucking wanted to win yeah yeah yeah it's all about shred it dude it's exactly you know I don't know even if it is even if it is you know a little quirky

quirky little quirky it's you know if you could still put it enthusiasm behind it i don't disagree and then you know he's good i think it would be way worse if you like oh yeah i gotta go to this air guitar thing for this guy who's trying to just uh make it at like the bottom level oh well i'm sure then it gets like oh i'm sure at the you know at the qualifiers yeah they see some you'll see some sad yeah it's like the first week of american idol yeah you know and the funny thing about that is the saddest the saddest people in that regard are the people who like the people who who don't commit to it you know like even like like even if

the like if you if you don't commit to the to the performance especially in something like this where just your actions and movements alone if you don't commit it's going to look really cringy and sad if you do commit and you're fucking you know living your shred you're living your rock star fantasy, it's going to show through. Follow your dreams. Yeah, follow your dreams. Follow your dreams.

Follow your dreams. If you want to be an air guitarist, be an air guitarist. Win the championship. If you want to be a dolphin-headed furry... Find in love, do it. But commit. Do whatever you got to do, but stick to it. Stick to it.

Until you win. And that's the lesson of today's episode. That's the lesson of today's episode. And what word did you use twice? Conglomerate. Conglomerate. Can we make any word a discount for Picky Boys merch? That's too hard of a word.
