I don't want to go anymore.
That's where you would draw the line.
What kings do you think a tiger would have?
I think a daddy king.
That's not what I'm saying.
Wait, does every cherub have a love bow?
Bo Burnham did cause a very awkward situation for me, though.
But when you look out the windshield, you can totally see fine.
Yeah, they have those with glasses, too.
Welcome back to the podcast of the summer.
Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome.
It's hot boy summer.
I got my floaties.
It's white boy summer.
It's white boy summer if you're Chet Hanks, and it's just the whoring, you know, the whoring
20s.
The whoring.
It's going to be an absolute banger of a summer.
Absolute banger of a summer.
I think everybody agrees with that.
And Memorial Day just happened, unofficial start.
Yeah.
So when is it actually?
June 1st?
Is that when it starts?
No, it's like June.
June 21st.
Oh, summer's not until June 21st?
Yeah, I think so.
That's the summer equinox.
Right, the hottest day or the longest day or the...
Same way of winter is not until December 21st,
but like December 1st, there'd be two feet of snow.
Yeah, you could have pounds, pounds, pounds of snow.
Pounds of snow.
Yeah, but this is the, in terms of, you know,
the summer that everybody celebrates,
the unofficial summer, that starts Memorial Day
and ends Labor Day.
It's also because we're like lagged this summer, you know?
It's like double summer.
Exactly.
I mean, we have so much to celebrate.
I would definitely want to have a party
because everybody joked about this on Twitter
during the pandemic,
we should definitely have a party
where we celebrate every lost holiday
in one day.
That is an interesting idea, definitely.
Oh, it's amazing.
I mean, we deserve it, frankly.
Yeah.
They were all ruined.
You know, we're not getting greedy.
We're not getting greedy.
It's just we're putting in one day.
One day.
We're not asking for any extra holidays.
We really would need a week to celebrate.
No, actually, now you're getting greedy.
Your own holidays.
Now you're getting greedy.
One day.
I say they would give it to us
if we matched it on one day.
Put it on like a Wednesday
and let work, like every job, say, all right, no anything that day.
No school, no work, no shoe shining.
What are we calling it?
It's just an amalgamation of, it's an acronym for all the-
It would probably have to be an acronym.
It can't be like St. Patton Times.
It's just your holiday.
It's like your holiday, what is it called when you get money back from the IRS?
Your rebate?
Yeah, refund rebate.
It's your holiday rebate.
We deserve this.
We deserve it.
We deserve this.
put in so much to get for this
reward. Yeah, truly.
And you can show up dressed as
whatever holiday.
Whichever one is your favorite. So really just throw in
like a white girl birthday party.
Did they do that?
You ever see all these things on TikTok
where they're like, oh, we're playing beer pong, everyone
comes as a different category? Oh no, those are like
themed parties, which by the way, we should all
it shouldn't just be for white girls.
We should all start doing themed parties.
Themed parties are so fun.
yeah and you know i like that they tell each uh couple or person a different theme so it just
looks like a like the a theme explosion yeah so it's exactly so we can we can tell every person
that's invited to come as a specific holiday yeah yeah and then you know they they'll be
responsible for kind of you know pushing what what has to happen on their holiday i i yeah yeah and
i was like just in terms of summer i i realized i don't know how you drop my memory this i had a
really hot take at memorial day weekend and i don't a lot of my family members didn't really
agree with me so i so like because i'm wearing these floaties right i know there's a lot of
people that can't swim but for me i i just said i said like anybody who's over 25 and it and i agree
and is put in the middle of a pool and can't make it to the edge and has to be saved should probably
not exist anymore or their bloodline should not go on i agree my family did not like that hot take
but I'll stick by it because I didn't know there were a bunch of non-swimmers.
That was my hot take.
I disagree because you can just learn to swim.
Right, and you should have already.
You should have learned.
I'm saying if I have to save a 30-year-old man who's in the middle of a pool.
Eight feet away from the edge.
I'd be like, you know what?
I'd be a little hesitant to reach out my hand or get one of those sticks.
And that's why you were just not accepted into the lifeguard program.
I did not pass the psychology exam of that test.
Can we talk about how-
What do you mean I got to save this guy?
Yeah, it's like, he can't swim.
He can't even swim.
Why would I save him?
They don't make these for adults.
He's supposed to know how to swim.
They definitely do.
They do.
He's supposed to know how to swim.
Why would I save him?
That's the whole point of a lifeguard.
No, you save kids and people who are hit and hit their-
If I was 50 or 40 or 30 and I jumped in the pool
and I hit the bottom of my head and I'm knocked out,
that's where my psychology kind of gets into place.
I'm like, oh, look, he can't swim, but he's just knocked out.
That's different.
I'll save that guy.
By the way.
You're not allowed to be a lifeguard.
I was a lifeguard.
You would be astonished, or maybe not.
Maybe you realize how people are dumb already,
but you'd be astonished how many people will jump in a pool
that don't know how to swim.
And they know they don't know how to swim,
and I think they just go, I'll figure it out.
And they just jump in and start drowning.
And then they call out for sexy JT up in his big tower.
I'll tell you why.
It's because people like you are like, just jump in.
You'll figure it out.
No, that's not what I'm saying.
I know, but first, that's what a lot of people say.
That's true.
That is true.
That's how they teach babies to swim.
No, no, no.
That's how my grandfather taught me.
That's the issue.
That's why I got to save people who are drowning.
If you know you don't know how to swim, why are you trying to swim?
Because I don't go to try to fly planes if I don't have a pilot's license.
I think it's because a lot of people say, oh, you'll learn how to swim.
It's a natural reaction.
You've never heard one person say that?
You've never heard one person say that?
Just jump in.
You'll figure it out.
Your body will do it.
No, literally never.
You've never heard that?
That's crazy.
Oh, no, that's happened to me.
My grandfather, when I was a child, threw me in the deep end of my pool, and I was sitting
at the bottom crying, and then some gracious hand came in and pulled me out by my trousers,
and I was like, thanks, Grandpa.
Grandpa's like, should have let him drown.
He needs to learn.
Yeah, he's got to learn.
He needs to learn.
Sink or swim, baby.
That is a very popular view.
I'm like, you can just figure it out, because people think that they can, but they can't.
Yeah.
No, I agree.
And also, I mean, the lifeguards that I know, there must be a very low bar because not many
of them, I wouldn't trust my life with most of the people that I know who are lifeguards.
The bar is on the floor.
The bar is underneath the water.
I believe you could probably have saved someone, but dude, a lot of these lifeguards, I feel
like we talked about this before, a lot of these lifeguards are, what, 14, 15?
I think we did talk about this, and I think we actually got some flack for it.
I feel like there were a lot of people in our comments, a lot of lifeguards, who were
Like, I was a lifeguard, and I helped save five people.
Oh, you mean you were an 80-pound, 4'11", person, like, woman who couldn't save a 30-year-old man?
I'll stick by that.
I don't think I probably, probably can't.
No, no, dude.
Okay, they have, like, they got floats and stuff.
They got the inner tubes.
They can, you just, to be a lifeguard, to save someone's life who's drowning,
all you need is, like, above-average swimming skills and the right gear.
Yeah.
That's it.
And this is more.
It's not a crazy job.
And this is more, we're talking about, like, pool talk, right?
But anybody who's a lifeguard at a pool, we're not talking about that.
You could probably save anybody from a pool drowning.
But in the lifeguard lifeguard, you know, like the pro lifeguard app,
where you have to go in the ocean, it's a little scarier.
That's all I'm saying.
I could be wrong, but I think it's a harder certification.
Yeah, I was talking about pool lifeguards, that half of them are useless.
They just whistle and tell you not to run.
That's their job.
I mean, I've heard firsthand.
Somebody was like, oh, yeah, I would just always watch on my phone Game of Thrones.
Oh, yeah.
This person showed up drunk.
Drunk as a lifeguard.
And we said, what about the people?
There's people swimming in there.
And he said, they'll be fine.
They'll be fine.
No, no, no.
Immense respect.
Immense respect to ocean lifeguards.
You have to deal with riptide, sharks, of course.
Giant squids.
We're calling pool lifeguards useless.
Yeah, harpoon gun.
Yeah, harpoon gun.
Defend the people.
Yeah, but I feel like we didn't make that distinction.
that's why we got flagged and people were like crossing no i think those people who are commenting
we're still pool lifeguards ah ah it's an important job you know it's just uh they they they want to
feel important which you know who we all do we we all want to feel important we all want to feel
part of a club like or something exclusive club that's what um that's why have you seen this like
there's a huge trend right now of speakeasies i feel like it's been yeah during like like it's
like everybody's everybody's so into the speakeasy it's like oh this is in the basement of a five
guys and like this one and this one is in you know a bowling alley but you have to knock three times
yeah it's like that's even though it's just fake exclusivity it makes you feel good yeah but i will
say i saw a tiktok and they're getting a little ridiculous i can't they're getting a little like
what one was just in somebody's basement yeah like it was in a home it was like so you have to knock
on his door, say the password, and go
into the basement. And then he'll
serve you an array of cocktails.
You have to feed his dog and do his laundry, and then he'll
serve you a beer. Yeah, did you just get kidnapped?
Yeah, it's like, are you willingly getting kidnapped?
How far are we going to take these things? Yeah, I feel like that's
a real speakeasy. It's like New York's
newest speakeasy is in
you have to dig up a grave.
Say the secret password
and the corpse will open.
And then he'll hand you
a map. Exactly. Follow the map.
These are getting ridiculous.
I'll tell you what.
After I was handed the shovel in the cemetery, I'd be like, you know what?
I don't want to go anymore.
That's where you would draw the line.
Yeah, I think that's where I'd draw the line.
What?
You think he'd tell me, oh, no, we got to go to a cemetery first?
No, we'd show up and be like, all right, here's the shovel.
Everyone start digging.
True.
And if you just did that.
Guys, no, there's $1 beers, dude.
We got to go.
I've been here before.
It doesn't smell that bad.
No, I mean, you know, and I get it.
Like I said, it's part of the exclusivity.
So you're going to tell me, like that exact thing, right?
you had to like straight up this you had to go dig there's a math and you go somewhere else you
i think you would go i mean i think i don't think i would oh that was just a joke i know but now
now i'm thinking about it i think that's i i don't think it would i don't i don't want to
grave rob anybody in hopes that i can find a subpar bar you get that it's like no no dude it
was steven something not robert we have to dig the guy over there and then i'd really be upset
yeah i mean it's a genius business model because you can also get away with the bar being shittier
because it's like you know it's supposed to be no but i feel like the point is it's supposed to be
the opposite of that like it's like the point of entry is supposed to look like crappy or not like
a bar but then the speakeasy itself is like a great bar i thought that's how it's supposed to
go well that those are like again those are like these are like the new trendy ones potentially
it's like that but a real speakeasy i think you're supposed it's supposed to look you know
it's supposed to just get alcohol
that's what it is
it's a place where you're supposed to hide
from the cops and drink alcohol
the one I went to two weeks ago
was
there's no
it was out on Long Island
there's not like a sign
or anything
which is very cool to these people
and then there was just a big wall
and doorknobs
all over it
and you have to guess which one
to open the door and get in.
Right.
What happens if you guess the wrong one?
Do you have multiple guesses?
You just have to keep trying.
Oh, yeah, you got to just keep trying?
This was the front door.
The front side of the building was just a wall
with maybe 30, 40 doorknobs on it,
and you have to keep trying until you get the right one.
And then, boom, the door.
That's great.
I would think there's one entry, a turn,
but the rest are like electric zappers.
And then if you get zapped, the guy comes out
I'd be like, oh, you can't get in.
Obviously, you're not part.
You don't know.
Each one that you try and fail adds a dollar to your cover charge.
That's a good one.
That's actually how I knew.
That's a good one.
I knew a speakeasy that did that.
They would essentially, they had like a text line,
and sometimes they'd do it with like secret social media posts
where they'd hide a word within the text that was the secret word.
And if you have the secret word, you can get it for free.
But if you didn't, you had to pay a $10 cover.
Right.
And if it's the doorknob thing, the regulars,
they're all paying nothing
because they know
which doorknob it is.
They're all the time.
But now the newcomer
has got to pay up.
Yeah, exactly.
And if you're the guy
who's guessing it
on the 40th knob,
just don't pay and go home.
Just go home.
Try again tomorrow.
Try again tomorrow.
You could also really prop up
another business in the front
just by having a speakeasy there.
Like one of the most popular
speakeasies in all of New York City
is called Please Don't Tell
and it's in the basement
of a hot dog shop.
and it's so popular
that there's always
like a two hour wait
and so that hot dog shop
just drives like
an unbelievable amount
of business
because people are just like
well might as well
get a hot dog
and wait
and that's
that's good business
that's a good plan
that's good business
that's good business
do you guys remember
when these fucking
sunglasses were a thing
yeah Kanye West
these stupid
stupid things
in the weeks and heartbreaks
that era
I can't believe
what were we doing
does it do any
does it block the sun at all
no it's literally
like shutter shades
right it blocks the haters it blocks it blocks your vision it doesn't it doesn't it this is the
worst thing i think we've ever ever come out of something whatever is this well i mean you'll
never see them anymore i think i think everybody agreed can you guys see it on camera it does light
up though that's pretty cool yeah i had a pair when i was in like seventh grade and i thought
i was very very very cool i just don't know what we were doing because this thing is just the worst
I feel like this is fairly summer
A little ravey
Ray-Bans by the way and other brands
I think
You guys all these people who spend
$300
I think you're an idiot a little bit
Also you do you
King but I think you're an idiot
Dude I bought a 274
Those first and last Ray-Bans I ever bought
Aviators pink shades
Super douchey super nice though
Beautiful Ray-Bans
Left them at a pool bar
literally I walked
out of the pool bar
got to the car
we're like oh shit
my sunglasses
walked back in
gone
gone
it's like that could
only be an employee
that could only be
an employee too
right
like that's too quick
that's like the waitress
lifting up your bottles
and putting it in
I'd say 50-50
alright I'll take 50-50
I'll take 50-50
definitely could have
been an employee
I'll take 50-50
I think
that's something you go
when you're like
did you see him
they go
and then you call
they're just like
oh yeah I was gonna
bring him to the
lost and found
yeah that's weird
they're on your face
buddy
there's definitely
a reason to buy them
like the reason
that I used to buy
them is strictly
because
the only sunglasses
that you're allowed
to put prescription in
are the ones
that they sell
at the retailers
which are all
the name brands
so you're essentially
forced into buying them
if you want
prescription sunglasses
right
but that's clearly
like a little different
yeah
that's a little different
but
and then after that
I was like
let's just buy
I'm just gonna buy
contacts
and then buy
shitty sunglasses
Oh, I mean, I totally agree with you.
I might as well buy a $5 pair of sunglasses.
Dude, not even that, dude.
It doesn't have to be $5.
If you want to go nice, you can buy like $40, $50 ones.
But I just think spending $300, I think you're dumb.
See, the problem is if you want the UV protection, it's probably going to be a little more.
If you want them to work as sunglasses, it's going to be a little more.
But really, dude, I would just go on Amazon.
There's like $20.
You get 20 sunglasses, all different gradient shades.
Fantastic.
I feel like that is also understated.
People don't realize that, like, sunglasses are, like, you're supposed to wear them because they protect your eyes.
Yeah, they're meant for something.
Like, the sun is very harmful to your eyes.
But people, you know, like them because of fashion.
Do you guys ever got thrown up on at an amusement park or, like, thrown up on a ride, actually?
No.
Iron guts out here?
No.
I got thrown up on in first grade, but that's it.
Like, on a ride or just some kid went, hey, cool.
Dude, you know in class, like every week, one kid would throw up for no reason when
you're in first grade.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And this girl next to me threw up all over me.
Dude, one of our friends.
I think they said that's how girls let you know that they like you when you're that age.
They make you throw up?
No, they throw up on you.
Oh, it was a girl that threw up.
Yeah.
We had a friend that was, I think it was fourth grade, who was so nervous about asking out
this girl, also in fourth grade, that he had to literally run out of the room without asking
for permission.
like he had to run, didn't make it,
put his hand to try to cover it,
and the holes that his hand made
made it shoot out like waterworks everywhere.
Did he ask her out?
She said no, I think.
She said no.
She said no after that display.
I think he was on a good run,
but after the throw up, it was over.
You should have learned the rule.
The girl has to throw up on you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can't throw up on the girl.
Basic chivalry.
Put something in her.
This is basic chivalry.
Yeah, put something in her juice box.
When tigers urinate on a rock
to show that they've been there
so that the partner comes to that rock and waits.
you ever watch planet earth so when i thought it was like a weird like jungle book or something oh
no that is true all right the snow leopard will piss on a rock because it has scents and then
the mate will come to that rock and the snow right be like so they got piss kinks snow you see piss
in the jungle you know like this is like this is a big cat mating spot and now i'm the mate
so we got to get the hell out of here yeah yeah that'd be terrifying yeah tigers do have piss
kings you said snow leopards and then tigers oh sorry sorry sorry sorry tigers have piss kings
too danny danny knows that from firsthand leopards have piss kings tigers have i don't know i mean
dogs they're daddies what do you think excuse me what do you think tigers are with leather like
what kink do you think leather would be i mean tiger would be what's happening would you stay
on one animal what what kings do you think a tiger would have let's go to daddy king let's
Go through the kinks of the big cats.
So we've established that.
And definitely a scratch in the back, right?
Yeah.
Well, the leopard is a piss kink, obviously.
We're going to assume that all of them have scratching kinks.
Okay, that's fair.
Maybe the tiger likes ball gags or something.
They just shove a rock in their mouth.
And then lions.
Lions, fur, something with fur.
Well, I think it's like...
Hair pulling, right?
I think it's probably like a hair thing.
Oh, yeah, hair pulling is the main, dude.
Why do you think they got all that beautiful hair?
And they got a nice tail.
But then they're like a king of the jungle,
so maybe it's like a dominatrix type situation.
Yeah, like a squire kind of thing.
What is that?
Like king to what?
Like what would that be?
King to servant?
Like a servant king?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like subservient.
Yeah, we got some kinky animals out here.
Yeah.
Let's hear David Attenborough talk about that.
The kinks of the big cats.
Like the whole animal kingdom, man.
It's got a lot of fucking, like, the whole sex in Animal Kingdom varies greatly.
Because, like, some animals, there's no sex.
There's an octopus who mates by, like, cutting off his penis and using it and then he leaves.
That exact noise.
Underwater.
Yeah.
He takes off his own penis, inserts it, and, like, leaves.
And just, that's, you know.
Does it grow back?
Or does he have one chance?
It grows back.
Oh, thank God.
Okay.
He has multiple swords.
I thought he only had one shot.
But as everybody knows, the seahorse, the father, is the one who gets him pregnant.
Is that the only animal where the dad gives the babies?
It's the only one we know about.
Burts the babies?
Unlucky, really.
I feel like because it's the only one that we know about, I feel like it's the only one it probably is.
Or else we would know about the other.
Because that's a random-ass animal, the seahorse.
Yeah, it's like, how do you even observe that?
Not a horse at all, by the way.
But it has horse-like features.
It just has a long face.
It has a, and then it has a...
If anything, it looks way more like a dragon.
Yes.
It looks like a Pokemon.
Yeah.
But I could see the horse-iness.
Dragons look like lizards.
Dragons look like...
Or lizards look like dragons, really.
Dragons definitely existed, I think.
I'm going to die on that.
I think dragons existed.
There was definitely some flying thing.
I don't think it breathed fire.
Well, yeah, yeah.
But I think dragons existed.
I like to think so.
I like to think they were hiding some treasure.
It seems like the kind of animal that couldn't die.
True.
Yeah, but like alligators, dude.
Alligators don't die.
They're immortal.
They get so big that they can't.
I think he's saying they wouldn't have gone extinct.
I'm saying they would, yeah.
I'm saying they wouldn't have gone extinct.
Which, again, alligators didn't.
Right.
I mean, they can fly.
Even if...
If every advantage is possible.
They can fly.
They are fire resistant.
Yeah, but what if we were just hunting them down?
Then there would be some record of that.
Dragon slayers.
Dragons.
Although they are in...
You ever see Game of Thrones?
They are in a lot of...
Mythologies?
Like different cultures, which is an interesting point.
Right.
We all thought of the same animal?
Yeah, exactly.
Did we all make up the same animal?
Or is there something close?
That is strange.
When things like that happen, it's not necessarily true,
but certainly interesting proof.
You say they were thinking that the Loch Ness Monster
was just some whale dick, just some whale.
Yes, I did see that.
You saw that?
I was like, that is so depressing to whoever.
I don't know.
It can't be.
I don't think there's whales in that lake in Iceland.
It was in a lake?
yeah Loch Ness
it's the lake in Iceland
that doesn't
I don't know
I saw the same
TikTok that I think
you're talking about
yeah
it looks strikingly similar
to a whale wing
yeah there's like a
it's not connected
to the ocean though
it's a lake
in Iceland
underground tunnel
it's a salt water lake
you don't know where it goes
no no they were
they were talking about
the Loch Ness lake
and they were saying
some animal
and I think it was a whale
I think it was a whale
they were saying
some animal
goes to the surface
and flips upside down
and flips it's penis
and it's penis
is like many
feet long yeah and like loopy and like droopy and so and so that's what they attributed and then
they literally took a picture of that of a whale doing that and the picture of loch ness monster
the lake and it looked it was exact same thing well that that very famous picture of loch ness
monster was just a toy it was a little dinosaur toy that's been like shown many times that there's
a lot of holes the most well-known picture of loch ness monster was just like a camera right here and
the guy had his toy right here a little dinosaur and perspective yeah it was all right so we got
a lot of holes
in our whale weenie theory.
This is not ours.
That's true.
Whoever that is
has a lot of holes.
Someone who I trust
has a lot of holes.
Very reputable source.
Very reputable TikTok source.
Said the Loch Ness Monster
is just a whale weenie.
Absolutely.
WW.
WW.
Just a little whale.
Wait, so it was a TikTok.
He was able to
divulge his whole theory
in 60 seconds?
Yes.
I mean,
this is a whale weenie.
This is the picture
of the Loch Ness Monster.
It looked exactly the same.
Boom.
Boom.
30 seconds.
Wow.
Not even.
I did it faster than him.
Yeah, 10 seconds.
Yeah, I mean,
It was pretty clear-cut when I saw it.
It was pretty uncut when I saw it.
Dude, I want to see, like, Bigfoot so bad.
I want that to exist.
I want one of these people to be right.
I want one of them to be right.
You know?
I just want one.
Just give one.
Because, like, one, then it leads to, like,
oh, God, this man was right about Bigfoot the whole time.
Maybe Loch Ness is real, or was, or some shit, you know?
What would be the coolest,
one of all the mythological creatures that they go,
like, oh, my God, guys, we discovered it.
It's actually real.
Pegasus.
Oh, that'd be cool.
Flying horse.
Dude, that'd be so cool.
Okay, that's fire.
But it would have been a little cooler
if we discovered it back when we still used horses in war.
Yeah.
Dude, imagine the guy who got good on a Pegasus.
Oh, my God.
Swings down from the heavens with his sword.
Chops off some people's heads.
Dude, arguably, they'd be good now.
Any flying animal that we can mount would be cool
because that would give way to a whole new branch of sports.
Oh, yeah.
Like Quidditch.
Yeah, like Quidditch.
Quidditch with a horse.
So literally, it doesn't matter the animal.
If any single animal, if there was a big bird that could sustain us, that would be cool.
But horses are very tameable.
I don't know, bird.
Bird, pretty dumb.
Bird brain, you know?
They call it bird brain.
Birds are dumb.
It's hard to train them to do shit.
I'm sure if you zap a bird long enough, it'll like, this zap means left, this zap means right.
Now we're going to throw a ball in this ring.
Fair enough.
Maybe.
We are against flying bird zapping.
I'm not.
Let me make myself perfectly clear.
I am not.
If it's a cool sport, I'm good with it.
If it's a cool sport, I'm so down.
I definitely don't want a true...
Pete is going to be in our comments.
It's like, please, stop.
Fucking animal killers.
Yeah, from these fake animals that don't exist.
How dare you?
Fucking...
I don't want dragons to exist.
I don't want that.
No, no.
That'd be a horrible thing.
Unless they never grew bigger than that basket.
But even then, it can kill me more than a pegasus.
Yeah, that'd be horrible for all of humanity.
Now we have to go against the war into dragons.
Also, they're greedy.
Smaug.
Now we're giving them characteristics.
He lives in gold.
Yeah, that's true.
We're going to have to give him a little piece of gold,
a feet of gold probably.
Somebody calculated his wealth, and it was like 30.
Who's that again?
The dragon in Lord of the Rings.
Or the hobbit.
Who lives in a mountain of gold that he has acquired.
How much was he worth?
But he was worth like $35 billion or something.
The point of the video was that there are billionaires.
that are richer than smog.
Yeah, Jeff Bezos could sit on that gold
and be like, this is nothing.
Who literally sits on a mountain of gold.
Yeah, and what smog spended it on?
True.
I mean, does a leprechaun count?
I would like for leprechauns to exist.
Oh, a leprechaun definitely counts.
That counts?
Aren't they evil?
They trick you.
I don't know.
They trick you.
But you can,
but if you do manage to get them,
I think it's good.
No, I'll trick you.
No, I think they'll do everything else,
but if you do manage to trap them.
He will run mental laps around you, dude.
I think it's hard to trap him.
I think he's a conniving little bastard,
but I think if you trap him, he'll give you gold.
That's my leprechaun.
Is that what the thing is?
I think so.
I think you have to trap him.
No, there is something about trapping them.
Yeah.
They'll give you a wish.
They'll trick you to get out of it.
I don't think they'll give you a wish.
Well, I'm not an idiot, you know?
He will run circles around you, right?
He can in his little cage.
What if cherubs existed?
That's a scary thing.
Just a little, they're like cupids.
Is it cherubs?
It's like a little flying baby?
Yeah.
I mean, first of all, terrifying.
And second, what if this guy shot me in the ass with a love arrow and then shot, like, a canine?
It's like, now I'm stuck loving this canine.
That's bestiality.
I'm going to jail.
And now this little baby flying around has all this power causing havoc.
Wait, does every cherub have a love bow?
I don't think just—
I thought that was just Cupid.
I don't think Cupid got the job.
I think everyone does it.
I think it's like the seven dwarves.
Different cherubs do different—have different moods, you know?
That's scarier.
So some could have a hate arrow, maybe.
Oh, that's worse.
what if he like
shoots me in the ass
and then shoots my mom
now I hate my mom
or something
that's the life of the cherub
wouldn't work on my dad
I already hate him
there it is
nice
you like that
I'll be watching this dad
by the way
let's talk about this
piece of media I consumed
that I was just obsessed with
Bo Burnham's new comedy special
oh yeah
it's so good
highly recommend you watch it
free plug for Netflix
it is very good
inside
it's very sad
it's very sad
but it's very good
it's fucking crazy
it totally encapsulates
It's what quarantine alone was like.
I mean, it's just beautiful.
I think it also proves, I mean, obviously not everybody can do this
because Bo is an incredibly creative guy,
and it took him a year to make this special.
But in reality, I know he has all this equipment,
but in reality, he did it with a microphone and a camera, right?
And by himself.
And a projector, essentially.
And a projector.
And he made this whole special by himself.
It kind of, to me, it more showed that he is in a weird mental state,
and yet he's pushing along,
and he's creating something like this all by himself.
I feel like it just kind of showed that anybody can do it.
If anything, it will be something like you've never seen before.
It's very unique.
That's definitely true.
So go give it a watch.
It was great.
I thought it was very interesting.
I'm guessing you didn't.
No, I mean, I love Bo Burnham, so I had plans to watch it.
But I'm also not, I guess, a super fan where I have to watch it
the hour, midnight release, whatever.
But now I am very intrigued.
I didn't even look up reviews.
I didn't hear anything.
It's good.
And I made the mistake, though, of showing my dad him.
I don't get it.
I made a mistake of showing my dad him.
And I showed the older specials just to kind of get the feel.
Because this one, you can't just jump into this one if you don't know him, I feel like.
Yeah, for sure.
And that was just, that didn't go well.
Bo's a big, like, you kind of got to get the world, like the comedy, satirical world.
And my dad was not.
Will you feel good after watching it?
No.
No, no, no, no.
Make no mistake.
But you will feel something.
Which, you know, isn't that the point of art, I guess?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It gets the point across.
It does, very much.
And a couple of the songs are bops.
True.
Bo Burnham did cause a very awkward situation for me, though.
I can't even imagine what happened.
Because I was like, I really like Bo Burnham.
So I was showing him to a girl I was dating at the time.
Oh, boy.
And I was like, oh, you got to watch this guy.
So I was like, let me just pick one of his funny videos.
So I picked the one.
it was um i think sad sadness or something sad sad yeah so it's like it's kind of it's almost
yeah yeah and he realizes that all these things that are sad are actually funny yeah yeah and one
of the things that he thinks is sad but realizes is hilarious is 9-11 right and the girl who i was
dating i showed it to her dad died in 9-11 so uh you need some research before you do that dude i
don't remember all the lyrics i was like oh this is a good one let me show this one and then after
i just kind of went i think i think after like 10 seconds i paused it i went you know i didn't
remember all everything he said um so sorry it almost looks like you did it on purpose yeah yeah
i said i wouldn't have played that if i remembered and at that point you know you don't want to
explain the joke to her because the whole joke of that song is that if if you're an asshole
everything is funny and like so it's not obviously those things aren't funny but you can't explain
that to her yeah and um i think what did south park said something like 20 26 years or 27 years
is when a tragedy becomes fully jokable so we got like seven years yeah we got you know yeah less
than a decade left and then way less dude i mean it's this uh this september is 20 20th anniversary
which is fucking wild seven years seven years yeah you're right and then in seven years call
her back up and show her again yeah so is it funny now is it funny now you get you get 27 years to be
sad about this now it's hilarious i'm sorry yeah it should probably go probably not honestly true
is that where we're ending it i believe so god damn it every time you know it's it's speaking
it's kind of like i'll tie it with this it's like memorial day yeah memorial day is a day
to honor
every veteran
who's died in the war
for the United States.
And we have barbecues about it.
Right.
So it's just
a weird thing, you know?
I don't know.
So maybe, who knows?
In 90 years, will we have a 9-11 barbecue?
No, no.
Well, no.
I think that's more of a consequence of
it's a day off
that everyone has as a federal holiday
at the beginning of the summer.
That's why it's a barbecue day.
True.
Everybody kneel at the barbecue
and pay your respects.
So that's where we're at.
That's where we're at.
That was much better.
Thank you.
You know, we're trying.
We're trying.
I don't like to end on 9-11.
All right, thank you.
Well, now you are.
Yeah, now we are.
