Never been. How many siblings do you have? Three sisters. What's your biggest fear? Drowning and tight spaces. Is it the metaphor of drowning or the actual physicality of it? No, physicality of it. Do you sometimes feel like you're drowning in your own life?

Sometimes, yeah. And that makes you feel... Stressed and overwhelmed. This is every conversation with Joe. Wait, where were you born? I was born in Columbia, Maryland, moved to Kansas City until I was four, and then ended up in Orange County, California, where I stayed mostly. Whoa.

How many siblings? One sibling, older brother. Okay. What's your biggest fear? Biggest fear, disappointing people. That's real. I mean, you're a chef. It's true.

And you will constantly disappoint people all the time. While cooking, yeah. You often disappointed me I know and I'm sorry Are you comfortable telling him that? That you're disappointed? Or do you just hold it in and tell him later? I hold it in and never tell him actually

This is the first time I've told him Is that real? Yeah, it comes out in short verse Only one wrong camera Which then I'm like, oh god, was that real or was it performance? That's really hard because how can you guys have a close relationship if you don't tell them and we'll get into that what the hell hi shane yeah how do you guys feel after that do you feel good i actually feel really good like i know her so much better yeah you know me really well um uh well josh yeah

it's the first time you've been on this podcast and it has been a long time since you've been uh here at smosh uh even though you've been on like several shows i have uh the funeral roast that was a big highlight that's right um arasha her performance that was maybe the funniest thing i've ever seen yep she was the coroner yes yeah i love that character something about me dying with a condom on or as or as chefs call it making a marinade and that just killed me and then and then we shot the the never aired um my ex's special where i came in and i had thrown out my back and i said i cannot physically sit down can we do this standing and i was in so much pain trying to film and so that was was an ex special. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

And I couldn't tell if Trevor was doing my actual ex. I think there was a weird line there. I was in a gray area. I was in a weird emotional space. It was like Patrick and Jeremy were like, oh, so like, yeah, you'll be kind of like Josh's type. But then like it really did just kind of end up being your ex. And I was like, what are you doing to me?

You did a whole roast on your ex? Or you? No, it was the interviewing his exes. Oh, interviewing his exes. But this is right before we like, Ian and Anthony debuted their first sketch. That feels like a century ago when we did exes. It was a century ago.

It was so long ago. Maybe it was the last time I filmed here. Wow. That's insane. That's century ago. It was so long ago. Maybe it was the last time I filmed here. Wow. That's insane. That's crazy. Wait, that was years ago. You were here for the Eat It or Eat It

where we discovered I have grave mouth. Yes. That was you. Oh, I heard about this. That was you. And it was kind of like you who solidified it

because I was eating this burger that was covered in malic acid and not reacting. But then you took a bite and then literally couldn't handle it for a second. My entire mouth felt like it was on fire. took a bite and then literally couldn't handle it for a second. My entire mouth felt like it was on fire. And we knew that if you couldn't handle it,

then something was wrong. Wait, malic acid is horrible. It's like sour. I feel like every time I went on Eat or Eat It, I got malic acid. Well, they started putting it in every episode because I didn't react to it. And actually, they were putting it in there

to get reactions from other people because any time I didn't eat it it. And actually, they were putting it in there to get reactions from other people because anytime I didn't eat it, people would freak out. But I kept somehow landing on the malic acid things and not being affected by it at all for some reason. I have more questions about that. How do you experience lemonade? Like, does it taste nice to you?

Yeah, it tastes great. And I taste like the tart sourness, but it's just never, it never does the thing where I have to pucker up or anything. Like, it's fine. I used to just pop Warheads as a kid. That's crazy. Absolutely not.

Like Blue Raspberry, Warheads, sour, gross. Loved them. So maybe I just like damaged my mouth. I did a, I'd always heard growing up that Warheads would like cause a hole to burn in your tongue. That was like a weird thing. That's what I heard too. Yeah, that would cause a hole to burn in your tongue. That's what I heard, too. Yeah, that was like a certain era. I guess so.

But I did a shoot with Santi from Food Theorists where it was like testing different ways to neutralize sour. And we just ate so much malic acid that day that it did bore a hole in my tongue. I couldn't eat for like three days. It was brutal. Wait, an actual physical hole? Not like all the way through. But you could see the physical indent. It just started eating it.

Like the scene in Fight Club with the lie on the hand. Uh-huh. It was like that on my tongue. Yeah, it was really brutal. Why did you do that? Oh, internet clout. A fear of disappointing people as we've talked about. Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

Josh, you go hard because just before we started recording, you were talking about the time that you drank so much caffeine you went blind. I missed that conversation. Josh has a really healthy relationship with food. No. No. No. Yeah, that was actually, that was a long shoot day in Mythical Kitchen.

And I'd gotten acute caffeine intoxication multiple times before, probably twice before. Okay, so it's no big deal. Well, this was the first time that I lost vision for probably five minutes, and I got really scared. I was drinking cold brew concentrate straight out of the bottle. The, like, jug? The jug, yeah. And everybody warned me, hey, don't do that. You're making us uncomfortable, all that.

And I was like, part of being a chef is being able to measure freehand. Yeah, you could say that. You know what two tablespoons of soy sauce looks like? So I was like, surely I being a chef is being able to measure freehand. Yeah. You know what two tablespoons of soy sauce looks like? And so I was like, surely I know how much I'm consuming here. And then everything went white. And I couldn't stand up. For five minutes? It was also, like, in this weird time where it was, like, post-COVID. But we were kind of coming out of it.

But it was still, like, limited people on set. And the vibes were just insane. And, I mean, we were just getting bags full of bang on the company card, just stocking them in the fridge. And it was just, there was always so much caffeine readily available. And yeah, we weren't really concerned with the consequences. It was like coming in at 8 a.m.

for what was gonna be a 10 hour, 11 hour shoot day, and just breakfast bang, lunch bang. And then half-oceanine bang. So many times during. Sounds like a 10 hour, 11 hour shoot day and just breakfast bang, lunch bang. And then half push and half bang. So many times during. That was like a breakfast bang, you know. There was so much anxiety during those shoots in that specific era because you would just get, somebody would get a slack and just go,

everybody out, everybody out. And then like a positive test came back. I'm sure y'all dealt with this. Oh yeah. And so it was already like, okay, how fast can we cook until somebody tests positive? Yeah, we were doing like four episodes in a day Yeah, I feel like the max number of videos will do like cooking videos will do in a day is like two now

Yeah, because we now run it a lot more professionally. Yeah No, we were just we were cranking through this and when you guys got home Did you cook or did you like die and fall apart and order yourself food in that era? I didn't I wasn't cooking Yeah, you know he was was eating a handful of goldfish every day. We would try and force him to eat Trevor nutrients during the day. Do you eat nutrients?

It's tough when you're going in, especially in the four videos a day, you're eating food for four videos. It's like you go and you just gorge yourself. We're not making healthy stuff in the Mythical Kitchen, so I'm just going and having the most diabolical food and a calzone korean corn dog and then i'm getting home and i'm like i don't even want to look at food i just want to drink diet coke and play video games and that's just all i did your body your little body no it was

pretty bad yeah it was it was not uh not healthy yeah yeah when you guys are cooking are you tasting everything are you tasting it are you actually like eating it and consuming it so there's the initial taste on camera and then this happened yesterday we we made a ton of pizzas in a shoot and so you're like tasting everything while you're cooking you're eating on camera and things but then the camera shut off and there's just like three whole pizzas and two backups left over and you're sort of like stressed from the shoot day in general. And so you just start going to town. The entire crew just crowds around the pizza.

I'm pouring bottles of like ranch and Thousand Island and putting hot sauce in it and just putting the pizzas together. And then you get home and you just like, you have post shoot clarity and you're just like, I'm so disgusting It's also so funny because when we're shooting cooking videos, it's like the food is a prop I mean imagine you're like doing a bit. It's like the crutch

It's like you have this thing in your hand and it's a it's a thing to be funny with and so when I'm on camera It's like I'm not even eating the food or like realizing it's like I'm using it as a prop, as a crutch to do funny or whatever. So it's like, it's funny if I just start crying and shoving my mouth full of pizza, and I'm not even thinking about the fact that I'm just like, aw, I'm shoving my mouth full of pizza, and then I get done, and I'm like, aw, why did I do that? I just.

You're like Jekyll and Hyde. You get home and you're just like, who was that? Yeah. Who am I? After eating almost everything on the planet uh is there anything at this stage that you're like oh man i will not touch that like that personally is just too much for my mouth or i mean because i feel like yeah there's only there's only one barrier left to bugs no bugs, we've eaten bugs. No, no, guys. Josh made me eat an entire tarantula.

That was an entire era. An entire tarantula. I did not know it was coming. You lifted the thing, and there was two full tarantulas. Not live. They were dead. No, but that's where I dropped mine. But they had everything.

No, no, no. And I eat bugs from like Chapulines. Chapulines are really great. You go to like a Mexican restaurant. They got the deep fried little crickets with the chili salt. We went to dinner with you and we did have bugs. There was something. It was the ants, right?

Yeah, Chikatana ants. Yeah. Chikatana ants. And we had worms. We had worms, too. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. We had sal de gusano. We had agave worms.

So bugs are not there. Now, have you seen Yellow Jackets? I stopped, actually. After season one. What a great transition. After season one, I stopped. Because actually, it made me physically ill. And I didn't like the feeling of the kind of the torture.

I was like, well, what's happening? Who's the real villain in this fucking story? You need some answers, yeah. I need some answers. I enjoyed all the older actors. I was like, Christina Ricci, how cool. And Hilary Swank is on it now. I'm like, nice.

What, Hilary Swank's in Yellow Jackets now? Yeah, are you watching it? No, season three out? I thought you said you stopped watching it. I did stop watching, my sister. She just keeps on watching. My sister's obsessed with Yellow Jackets and she keeps going, don't watch it, but I'm obsessed.

Oh, fine. I love it, Juliette Lewis is fantastic. Nicole Maines is fantastic. Juliette Lewis is incredible. It was such a hard show to come back and just start into season three. I'm like, those first two seasons, so much is going on. And so much that you have no clue what's going on. So then you just jump back in and you're like,

I didn't know what was going on when I was watching it. And now it's been a year and a half since I've seen an episode. And I really don't know what's happening. I watched season one when I had COVID. And I had 104 fever know what's happening. I watched season one when I had COVID and I had a 104 fever for three straight days. And I watched all of Yellow Jackets while having a 104 fever.

You're like, I'm there. It was actually one of the best TV viewing experiences of my life. Holy shit. I was talking about human meat. No, that's the only thing. I would not eat human meat. Is that the one thing? That's a moral thing.

They eat Ella Purnell. Ella Purnell Yeah Yeah Ella Purnell Ella Purnell She's the frozen She's the girl Yeah Oh yeah

But that's You're talking about A moral thing I'm talking about like Is there a thing That you literally Cannot handle To be honest

I thought That you were talking About semen Oh no I've eaten like cod semen You've had cod sperm before No I haven't Of course you have

Cod Cod semen Actually I like cod semen. You've had cod sperm before? No, I haven't. Of course you have. Cod. Cod semen. Actually, I like cod. You should try it with semen. It's called shirako. It's a really expensive delicacy. It tastes a lot like uni. It's got this iodine-y, milky... I love uni. You might like shirako. I struggle with uni. I don't really like...

If a food exists, it's because somebody finds it pleasant to eat, right? Yeah. And I think humans are generally so much more alike than they are different. And so, like, if somebody from one culture can like something, I think you can like it, too, even if it's not to your taste. So I don't think there's any food that I wouldn't try. Yeah, I think you would try anything, but I feel like you've tried almost everything. So are there foods that it's like, whoo, I never again. Because I believe I'm aware that Rhett and Link,

the food that they struggled with the most was, is it like the pig blood taco or something? Oh, that's just like delicious. Like that's really, really good. They just didn't like it. Well, you shouldn't just put it in an Ortega stand and stuff taco shell. But there's like a Vietnamese dish called Bun Ba Hue.

Just this like spicy pork trotter soup with like a ton of fragrant herbs. And you put the blood cube in that and that's really delicious because like the more intense flavors you have the more they can balance against other intensity and so like everything in context right? Of course, of course

I know that that's something that got pointed out forever ago on Smosh, we used to do a lot more like punishment style things and it was what's the Australian spread for toast? Vegemite. Vegemite. But for toast? Vegemite. But whenever we had Vegemite, we would have a huge heaping spoonful of it. And of course it's gross like

that. And we'd have tons of comments being like, hey man, don't eat it that way. It's gross because of the way you're eating it. It's all how you eat it. You don't drink a cup of mayonnaise. Of course it's gross in that context. That'll be hard to drink. Except Damien might. Does he love mayo that much? Yeah, he loves mayo. Oh time he's on we'll ask him but uh but uh yeah i we get those that that type of context and then whenever i try foods and i'm

like this is gross i do think about how someone does love it and i kind of want to try to like figure out how to love it i'm like like, is there a way? Different cultures. Like, I feel like I would love to go to a different culture and have it explained to me and like the history of it. And then I feel like I could really love it where it's like, hey, you know, we're in America. Here's this here's this thing that you should try from Vietnam. It's like, wait a second. I know. I think I think environment definitely would help.

I the food that I struggle with that that I want to like is natto. Natto is the fermented soybeans? It's fermented soybeans, but the way that it ferments, the soybeans are whole, but there's this almost cobwebby stickiness around it. It's a little bit. So when you whip it up with chopsticks, it gets really, really stringy and slimy. But it's interesting the way that we think about like crispy, right? We view that as a good adjective for food and we view slimy as bad.

But that's only in like, you know, a very American English context. So there's in a lot of other cultures, like crispiness is kind of like weird. Like why would you, it's like shattering, it's hurting your teeth, you know, whatever. And so like natto, it's that texture is a lot more common in Japan, also in a lot of Chinese cooking. There was this Nigerian whole goat barbecue right out in Van Nuys. Wow.

And I remember in an interview, he was talking about making this traditional Nigerian whole goat barbecue. And Americans would come, and they'd eat it. And they'd go, oh, this meat's tough. And the Nigerians that came and ate it went, this is perfect. So then he's like, cool, I can cook this lower, slower, longer. Americans came and went, this meat's tough and the nigerians that came and ate it and went this is perfect so then he's like cool i can cook this lower slower longer americans came and went this

meat's so tender that's great nigerians came and was like this isn't meat it's falling apart in my mouth you're supposed to chew meat what is this and so like you know what we view as objectively good in food is not how every other culture would view it so it's so interesting yeah i think i've had natto before actually as you're talking interesting yeah i think i've had natto before actually as you're talking about it i think i was in seattle and we were in this really amazing restaurant i remember being very slimy yeah and i i was a little taken aback by it just because you're exactly right like in my culture slimy it's like slimy it feels like it's alive but it was delicious the flavor is great it's got this

like very like almost cheesy fermentation to it and i've tried natto every which way i've tried it drunk i've tried it sober i've tried it on sashimi like i'm the same thing with you i think i need to be drunk when i try new things that's how i sneak it past my brain yeah it's so fun when i when you try something you don't like it and somehow you find a way to view it differently, because that's me with some types of cheeses. Like blue cheese, I used to not be able to touch. I was like, this is disgusting. Oh, so good.

But at this stage, I don't know what happened. Eventually, I had it in the right context or paired with the right thing, and I was like, okay, I understand it a little bit more. And that's such a fun experience to learn to like something. Also, pairing it with something brings out all the different flavors of it. I was kind of obsessed with food pairing. I don't know if I'm that good at it at all. But simple things like meat and cheeses or dips and cheeses.

And I'm just like, what's the... I remember I went wine tasting one time, this woman, she went over her whole explanation of pairing, and I was right there with her. I was like, three glasses of wine deep, I was like, yeah, I get that. And I left being like, what did she say? She was like, salty sweet, what did she say?

It's like the scene in Ratatouille where he like gives his garbage eating friend, the, her brother just like the grape and the cheese and there's like this scene with the flashing colors and it's so beautiful yeah for me it was honey with with blue cheese that finally made it made it work so that makes sense it's like pairing is everything you guys have the answers right like yeah but i mean i think that's like one so much when you're talking about like the person at the winery, like telling you all these stories. That's ultimately what it is.

It's storytelling, right? Like wine is the best example of that. It is literally just rotten grape juice. So all these notes of like nectarine and honeydew rind and tobacco. That's all just something people are making up based on what this rotten grape juice kind of smells like to them. I remember talking to my brother who was like a certified sommelier and he worked for a little bit in the wine industry. And he was saying there's a tasting note or actually it's a,

a, what do they call it? Like an old factory, an old factory note, um, a violet, like this wine smells like violets. Violets are an odorless flower.

Violets don't smell like anything funny but our mind makes it up yeah and like and you would say oh beautiful violet aroma check that out and then you go oh yeah i smell violets but it's you're sort of paying for that that storytelling that human connection the connection to history because wine is thousands of years old and like that's it it's all it's smoke and mirrors but so is life and i kind of love that about it that's kind of why i love wine because it's like there's a funny comedy to it it's kind of like bullshit it's like when you wine taste with your mom and you're like i know this is bullshit when she's like grass dirt oh my god it's like salt dirt i'm like okay and the people like the

psalms who work at the winery are like it's a little bit like a stripper where it's like they're paid to be nice to you right because they want you to spend money like 100 it's like little bit like a stripper where it's like, they're paid to be nice to you, right? Because they want you to spend money. Like 100%. It's like, and so you'll say like, it smells like dirt. And they'll be like, yeah, definitely. Good nose. You know, these grapes actually grow in dirt.

Oh, you do pick that up. Wow, good nose. You must know a lot about wine. And you're like, well, I drink a lot of wine. So when you pass the psalm test, it's just other psalms determining whether you like do the bullshit Correctly kind I imagine it's like getting into the magic castle as a magician

As long as you sneak past the other magicians there then you're in Yeah, it's exactly the same magic castle I feel like there's a lot of people who live there and like secret walls Have you been in there where you're just like what does this door lead to and it's exactly the same. Magic Castle. I feel like there's a lot of people who live there in secret walls. Have you been in there where you're just like, what does this door lead to? And it's a whole family like, hello! For people who don't know, in LA, there is a castle in the hills called the Magic Castle. And it's where every magician strives to work.

Yeah. It's a magic castle. And if you're a magician, which there's a lot of magicians in LA for some reason, it's the SNL of magic kind of here in this city. That's where you want to work, and you can only get invited via someone else. And also as a guest,

you can only get invited to go in. You can't just walk up to the Magic Castle. I've never been. You haven't? I've never been either. Wait, I've never been either. Are you the only one that's actually been? I guess I'm magic castle. I've never been. If you do. You haven't? No. I've never been either. Wait, I've never been either. Are you the only one that's actually been? I guess I'm the only one who's ever been.

So a guy that I did Groundlings with was a hilarious comedian and also an unbelievable magician. And him and his girlfriend did magic together. And he was so good. And he's kind of like this. He has this whole like old Jewish man act that he puts on and it's not an act it's like definitely it's not an act it's not an act it's such a funny character it's such a good character but like he does magic based on that and he's like slow and takes his time but it's so everyone's like and he invited us one time and i was like, holy shit. There's like rooms and bars from like years and years and years ago.

And you have to get the food and the martini glasses are like tiny and freezing cold. And the steak's pretty good. And you're just like, where am I? I feel like they're like 90 year old ghosts just like roaming. It's such a bizarre. It feels like the whole thing is like carpeted, like wall. I can't even I can't really describe it, but you have to go. I guess we have to go.

I know you have to get invited, but like. Don't you just kind of wander around in there too? You usually go, usually go for the food or you go and like sit and have a drink. And then you wander around and try to like wait in line for the different shows. So like each, there's like all these little like rooms that you like that are kind of hidden and you have to wait in line and get there in time. And then you go in and then magic, magicians, like put on a whole show.

But you don't even have to do that. Sometimes they're just walking around and they'll be like, hey, you wanna pull a card for me? And you're like, where did you come from? To me it's so like funny. It's like how you're talking about with psalms like making you laugh it's like that also makes me laugh because there's like they're dressed up you have to be really dressed up you yeah you have to be like in a suit so everyone's really dressed up and

pulling cards and it's kind of magicians are such a specific personality like every magician is it's kind of funny. Magicians are such a specific personality. Like, every magician is, it's like, yep, you know. Are they? I don't know. I don't think magicians are too mysterious. Here's the thing. I feel like they go home to their couch, and they're in, like, their sweats, and they're eating chips, and they're like, what's on TV? And then they put on a suit, and they're like, here we go. That would be impressive.

You tweeted something about how you're so polite that even if a magician pulled your wrong card, you just go, ha ha, yeah, man, that's it. Which is kind of my fundamental problem with it. What? I don't like that. I feel like I have to manage their emotions because I want them to succeed because if they fail, then it's going to be. It's never happened. You know what I mean? It's never happened.

Disappointing thing. But if a magician did fuck up on the trick, I would pretend, I'd feel so bad. What? I'd feel really bad. I would be like, that is not my card. I'd be like, it's not my card, fuck you. No, I'd just be like, I'll give you another chance. I feel like there's this pressure,

because I feel like every time I get approached by a magician and they're doing a card trick, I'm like, I know you're gonna have the card. I've never had a magician not, like someone who's a professional magician not pull the card. And so I feel like, I know you're gonna have the card. I've never had a magician not, like someone who's a professional magician not pull the card. And so I feel like there's this pressure to be amazed by it at the end

where I'm like, oh my god. But the whole time I'm like, I know you're gonna get my card. I know you're tricking me. Guys, you gotta, no. Don't put that on pressure. The only real magician is David Blaine and his best trick is where he just eats a wine glass.

David Blaine. There's no trick, he's just eating a glass and it messes up his teeth really bad. I've yet to in person. I love David Blaine. That's real magic. I haven't actually seen much magic in person. Like I've seen like little card tricks where I'm like, okay, I understand the like deceit of it all, but I've yet to see a magic trick in person that's like those David Blaine levels.

Like the one where he like has a card and he like throws it at a windshield and suddenly it's like those David Blaine levels? Like the one where he has a car and he throws it at a windshield and suddenly it's in the glass. I want to see something like that. You're going to see it at the magic? Did you see? What's the what's the do you know what the craziest magic trick you've ever seen is? Is there one that you're like something with like this guy had a bunch of coins

and then all these different people had coins and he knew what the coins were and then people were like, how? And how and you know they're like 60 plus old so you know they're not fucking around you're like that bitch didn't come in with those coins they lived through the cold war yeah exactly i've yet to have like i'd love a trick where there's something on my person that they put there and i'm like how did that end up i'm telling you i that i'm so curious about that i'll find a way to get you in. Okay, let's break me into the magic castle. Because if you're not invited, you open up the front door

and it just leads to the exit. And you're like, oh. You walk through and you're just walking out. You're walking back out. Yeah, that's what happens. I love, like, I think the impressive part about magic, though, is just the sleight of hand. Like, it's insane that they are able to do that.

There's this guy who there's like a documentary. I think it's on Netflix. It's not even magic, but it's this guy who is blind and he is just so incredible at shuffling cards. He goes through like an entire deck of cards a day from shuffling it so much, but he can shuffle a deck of cards and reshuffle it so that it's completely in order like his hands have just touched cards so many times that he can tell exactly where every card is when he's shuffling it fully blind he can shuffle a deck

pull out a card and tell you exactly what it is it's unbelievable the most insane documentary about him whole documentary and all he does the entire time is just he's always shuffling cards. When he's talking, when he's doing anything, he's shuffling cards. It's like practice. Okay. It's the most unreal thing I've ever seen. Isn't it a true, this always blows my mind,

that every time you shuffle a deck of cards, that's the first time that organization of cards has ever existed? Like the odds is that when you shuffle a deck of cards, that just the way that the odds work, that order of cards has never before been shuffled into place before. I don't know. I think I've heard, yeah, I think I've heard something like that.

We'll have Selena fact check so that I'm not just lying to you. It's like one of those things where it's like, if you put a monkey and a typewriter in a room with enough time. That the odds eventually type out the words to Shakespeare. I learned last night Raven and I were watching Wedding Crashers. Okay. Oh, okay. Fun.

Perfect transition. Incredible film. Yeah. No, but Owen Wilson makes a joke about Australia and how the toilets flush the opposite way. And Raven was like, what? And I was like, oh, no, that's a real thing. Like if you go to the southern hemisphere the toilets like flush the opposite way and Raven was like what I was like Oh, no That's a real thing like if you go to the like southern hemisphere the toilets flush the opposite way and I googled it completely

Amid not true. Yeah completely a lie. It's not true But it's like something I saw like a video of probably when I was like in high school and I was like, dude That's crazy And then they're like on the equator the the water doesn't spin at all. It just goes straight down. And I was like, oh my god. I looked it up. Completely a myth. I missed.

There's really no excuse for buying into that shit nowadays. But it happens more now. And that's freaking magic. If they tell you it, then you believe it. Fuck. It's like 0.0 infinity 4 or 5 percent. So statistically. It's like.0 infinity 45% Statistically Statistically, when you shuffle a deck of cards That's the first time that has ever existed

How long until we get to a point Where we will have had a repeat You know what I mean? We're not counting this blind guy who's shuffling all day He's made so many different iterations. He's feeling the outside of his cards, and he's memorizing the feel with the card. That's what I'm guessing. Eight billion people on Earth.

Each person's probably shuffling a deck of cards, what, 15, 30 times a day? Yeah. Every person is always shuffling a deck of cards. You know what I mean? Me playing Bellatro? Yeah. All day, every day. Speaking of wedding crashers, Trevor, you're engaged. Dude, yeah, I'm day um speaking of wedding crashers Trevor you're engaged dude. Yeah

How crazy Join us. It's so awesome. Is it awesome? It's so awesome just to be able to call her my fiance cuz like we don't I mean we don't have like a day 90 days Yeah. I love that you're on that show. They're sending you back to Idaho. No, I mean, it's like, because I love her so much. But it always felt weird being like, oh, yeah, this is my girlfriend. It just doesn't feel that serious, you know? So we don't have a date set. We're saving money.

We live in LA, and we're broke. We're not going to have a wedding probably anytime really soon. But it's like, now i get to go around and be like oh yeah my fiance and it just feels so official it's like it's like no dude i swear i really love her like she's my fiance i really love her i swear dude um man yeah people question it when it's like your girlfriend like yeah yeah yeah there's like a thing like okay your girlfriend but no it's it does have a it does have a weird connotation. My girlfriend, people like, OK, it just doesn't. How long? And you're like, dude, I think the problem, yeah, is that that term is so all encompassing.

Like it can mean so many different like levels. Yeah. It's why I kind of like what people have been saying partner a lot. And I'm like, I think that adds like, yeah, a different layer. Yeah, we would say partner. And partner and like yeah that did feel more official but now it's like fiance i'm like yeah and then people ask me of a date and i'm like no probably never gonna take your time if you think they're asking you that she is going to get asked so often that is going to ruin her life was that your experience times oh so much i mean i have three sisters yeah so when and what colors are you thinking? Like, what should I wear?

And what, and both my sisters have two kids and they were always going to be in the wedding. And they're like, so what for like suit? I'm like, I don't, I don't have a dress myself. Like I don't, I think I like learned that I feel like people in life there, it's like the next, it's like the next question that they should ask. They have a book that's like, how to be social when it comes to this stuff. And it's like, that's

the next question that they ask. You're engaged. They're like, great. When's the date? Because all they need to say is like, that's awesome. They can't live in that unknown gray area, so they just say the next thing. So I kind of stopped taking it so personally but i remember being engaged being extremely overwhelmed like i i was so excited

but people were like can i throw you like an engagement party and i wanted to crumble and die and now i'm thinking like why didn't i just let them do that but you just get so i don't know you get so overwhelmed because you're like i also want to have a say in this but i don't know what i want it to look like and people are like they're ready they're like when's the next thing yeah and then it's like once you're married then it's like oh are you thinking about kids soon 100 good god yeah escalator man you hop on the escalator and you just never hop then you have kids and you're like when are you gonna die die? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

When are you going to die? Amanda, how long was your engagement? Really not that long. And honestly, why I'm saying don't rush, like, my husband was like, we could wait another year. And I felt so much pressure just from myself and, like, the outside world that I was like, no, no, we have to. So my engagement was, like, no, we have to. So my engagement was like really a year. Yeah. Really not that long, but we could have done two years.

Now, don't get me wrong. The wedding day was like one of the best days of my life. It really, really was. And I didn't think that. I was like, oh God, everyone says it's the best day of their life. But it fucking was. It was unbelievable. And I'm so glad when we got married. Like I, I'm, I'm glad we didn't wait,

but like we could have waited. So it was only a year. It wasn't that long. And yours was your, you've, it was only a couple months ago, right? My wedding. Yeah. I got married a couple months ago, but our engagement was almost three years. Wow. There was so much pressure. We started planning early, but there was so much pressure to throw the perfect wedding. And that's something that, like, really freaks me out about the world in general is just, like, the bachelor party, the bachelorette party. We're traveling.

We're going to Park Slope. The shower. The everything. And I'm just, like, invite, like, I grew up in, like, a crappy apartment complex that had like a party clubhouse and like growing up you'd get a gallon of store brand ice cream and a crappy sheet cake and you just invite friends over there and that's what I want to go back to for like engagement and bachelor parties yes you know bring bring one craigslist erotic dancer to the that apart whatever the version of that apartment clubhouse is because there's just so many different events and all your other friends are

getting married and it's so expensive. And it's just been this like escalation over a long period of time. And you're, you're, you're kind of, I feel exactly the same way. I was like, I do better.

I love big groups of people, but I personally do better with small groups. So I split shit up like the whole year. I was like, I'm essentially getting married for the whole year. Like I'm gonna have like a hangout with my sisters on the east coast and that's gonna be like a bachelorette party, but essentially it's just a weekend.

And then I'm gonna have like the Craigslist stripper, which I definitely had. Like fireman, doctor, what was her shtick? Jeans. Well, actually, I love tarot cards. And my friend's book, and we rented a house on this horse ranch, which I was like, this is sick. And he showed up as a tarot reader. But he, like, wasn't prepared.

He was the wrong guy. Like, they were like, this is not who we picked. And he showed up in this big gaping gown that my friend had from Groundlings. She was like, I stole this from the basement. And gave it to him. And then he had tarot cards. And he went, it's going to be a fun night. You and your friends are going to have a good time. Let's party.

And I was like, thanks for my card reading. Oh, your card is the huge ball card. Uh-oh. Oh, no. The swordsman. Something terrible has happened in your life. Nothing better than a stripper in jeans. Let me tell you that.

The movement was. It was like he was a snake. He was like. He also was a little injured. I'm not really sure oh no the only time my friends have earnestly gotten strippers and it was from craigslist they were lovely they were from bakersfield was when i won our fantasy football championship 2016 and they were dressed like guy fieri they had that's awesome my buddy put together the costumes I swear they had the fumanchu mustache everything

and put out a giant tarp and they poured five gallons of barbecue sauce on me and that was the most contact that you know there was not nobody was there what? that was the most contact?

none of us were like there for you know the actual stripper part, none of us were there for the actual stripper part of it. We were more there for the Guy Fieri of it all. I was flipped and slammed on my face. I was like, ow. Holy shit.

That's awesome. You don't know where to go from the barbecue sauce. And there's a whole Guy Fieri like, there's like a trapped out Guy Fieri song of just him saying like, welcome flavor town you know um and they danced to that and so stop that was not the bachelor party that was just see that's the thing is like i'm so sick of these words of like a shower a bachelor a bridal shower and it's like let's just all you the whole point of a wedding is to hang out with your friends and be like hey we're doing this thanks for being there for us.

Like, thanks for being our tribe. Like that, that to me was the whole thing. Like we didn't have an engagement party. I didn't really have a shower. I just had like a bachelorette with my sisters from home. And then my friends here,

because that to me, that was like plenty. It was a lot for me to process, but then I don't know. Like I felt like i was like not really relaxed i get really overwhelmed with like a lot of attention and i and and crazy when i i'm a fucking actor but like i had a 40 person wedding like i had it small and like if my husband were to choose he would have had 500 people like he's like let's party and dance it's a different kind

of attention yeah when it comes to this type of stuff. It's also attention from your family, people in your life that can stress you out more easily than anyone else. They're like, how you feeling? Yeah. You're like, I was feeling good

until you asked me that. They're like, yeah. And you're like, what's the hidden meaning here? I think it's one of those times in life where you feel this pressure where it's like does everyone expect me to know absolutely 100 for sure what i want in every aspect of my life and it's like man i'm i'm really unsure of a lot of things i don't know but the way people talk to you they're just like like yeah so you know what you're doing do you know what you want with this and this and this and this and i'm like maybe i don't maybe I don't. I think they feel better. I think for what I learned about my mom,

and I really had to dig through this, is she just wants to know that I'm going to be okay. And I'm going to have a good time. But it comes off in all those questions. You know what I mean? And people are like, why don't they trust me? And it's like, no, they just want to make sure you're going to be good and set up and ready to go and that's like i can say that now because i already went through all of it but like you really have to like dig through that and be

like what is what is the hidden meaning here and it's like they just want to make sure that you're good yeah most of them it's funny talking about the different kinds of attention but the people are definitely a big part of that because if you if you would imagine like your mom and all your closest family members being on set every day you would probably have very different feelings about your work in certain ways right yeah because you you're like carrying so much baggage from such a young age with all those people that they say one thing you know there's like is everything okay it's like well why would it not be why would not be you said that to me when i was eight and things weren't going okay. Uh-huh.

Yeah. Totally true. So everything's going to be okay. Yeah, no, everything's going to be okay. When you're having kids. Yeah. What has been on your mind more, Trevor? Has it been the engagement or has it been the fact that you're going to be in creator

clash? Oh, God. Oh, my God. Dude, no. How's your nose doing, by the way? Nose is doing good. It doesn't really hurt too much. Thank you.

Did you get some Arnica? You didn't. I don't go to the store. Okay. I'm sorry. I should have just bought it for you. Tiny bit of context. Creator Clash is a YouTuber boxing event

that's been going on for a couple years where YouTubers beat the shit out of each other. And Trevor, you're in it this year. Yeah'm in it um dude it's exhausting it's so weird to be like i've played sports my whole life and i've never been it's been so long since i've been bad at a sport you know like learned a sport so like going into it i was like i'm athletic like i haven't boxed before but like surely it can't be like, you know, I'm going into this with athletic experience. And dude, how humbling it is to just get punched in the face.

Yeah, it's brutal. But I finally feel like I'm getting better, which is nice. It's starting to click a little bit for me. I'm getting less scared, but it's, it's become so tiring because now, like like the last couple weeks have been so busy like just long shoot days long days and then on any of the days that i'm not shooting i'm getting beat up you're training yeah i'm like going to a gym and i'm a bulgarian man is just punching me um and he's loving it too yeah he oh he loves it he like punches me in the face

and my nose is all bloody and he goes oh sorry he's like but get back up and i'm like okay hero's journey you're on the hero's journey boo yeah no it's it's really outside my comfort zone though and i think it's really good for me because they're genuinely the that picture of my bloody nose when he punched me, I got sent to the ground and just like, couldn't like help myself from just immediately like crying. I was just on the ground crying. And I was like, I want to get up and I want to walk out of this gym because this isn't fun. And I don't really like punching people. So like, that's not even fun. The other side of it. Um, but no, I mean, it's a challenge and it's for a really awesome cause

uh it's like for charity it's really cool um and it's an awesome group of people so it's outside my comfort zone it's hard but i'm glad that i'm doing it and once it's done and after i win i'm probably not ever gonna box again uh after you win yeah after i win i've that's been so many like interviews with people who've participated in creator class they're like so are you gonna keep doing this They're like no No I'm done No

No I'm gonna go back To just playing Pick up basketball It's so much fun Pick up basketball So much fun Getting punched in the face Not fun

It's like going home And hurting That's extremely painful I started sitting down In the shower again I haven't sat down In the shower Oh no

What the Like in movies When people are really Falling apart You're in those like Hardcore boxing dramas now Dude I haven't sat down in the shower. Like in movies when people are really falling apart? You're in those hardcore boxing dramas now. Dude, I haven't sat down in the shower since I was unmedicated for my mental

health issues. And now I'm getting home and I'm like, Grave, this is going to be a long one. I've got to sit down for a minute. Oh, I can picture you turning it on. Yeah. You can't do this, Trevor. You've got to give it up. up trevor yeah amanda's from boston she knows like 15 000 boxers yeah because everyone in boston's a boxer yeah yeah i did a lot of muay thai training i did like two and a half years of muay thai training and i loved

loved it but i will say it took me a really long time to not be afraid of being punched yeah in the face the training that i'm to not be afraid of being punched in the face. The training that I'm doing, they're not actively punching me in the face, but still, they go for it, and you're supposed to slip. And in the beginning, I'd be like. And they'd be like, you cannot shut your eyes. And I was like, but it's natural.

I shut my eyes, it goes away. So it took me months to open my eyes to a fucking punch coming towards me yeah no and that's what it's scary he's like you gotta have a poker face when you're in there he's like you can't flinch you can't look like you're getting tired like you just have to sit there and see a punch coming at you just straight faced um yeah no it's it's it's a whole different kind of like wedding planning you know what i'm saying just focus on creator clash yeah it's the same thing i could see boxing being fun as like a casual workout where like i'm going in and i'm getting

punches in on a bag like it is tiring and it's a full body like it's everything cardio but yeah i sparring and just getting hit over and over again and you get to the point like it's so tiring and when i got my face like really punched we were doing four three minute rounds of sparring that was in the first round so then i had to go three more rounds just blood pouring out of my nose i was also like kind of sick at the time so it was mucousy and like there was just like snotty blood hanging out of my nose and i'm so tired to the point where i can't even throw punches. And I'm like, I just have to get through this last couple minutes without being hurt more. And Grisha, my coach, literally, he's like looking at me.

He puts his hands down. He's just like, just punch me. He's like, just punch me. He puts his head down. He's like, just punch me. And I'm just like punching him. He's like, see if you punch. He's like, that's why you keep your head down.

It doesn't hurt if you get punched up here. He's like, just keep punching me. I was like, I just want to go home. Why do I love this guy so much? Like, this is fucking great. It's such a specific personality type. It's kind of like we were talking about at the beginning, like, chefs have such a specific personality type. I feel like boxers also have such a.

Yeah, chefs. You guys are a little totally unhinged. Yeah, absolute freaks. Yeah, yeah. Suckers for pain and punishment, too. Well, he's got the craziest story because he grew up in Bulgaria, like freaks. Yeah, yeah, suckers for pain and punishment too. Well he's got the craziest story because he grew up in Bulgaria, like communist Bulgaria. And it's like he was fighting

and that's what he was good at, so that's what he did. It's like he was good at fighting, so all he did was fight since he was a kid. And he's just telling me these stories about him, like the jump roping that he would do with a hose because he didn't have a jump rope. And then he came to America and was fighting on the American national team. But he was just going through it.

That's all he did was fight when he was younger. And he loves to get punched. He loves to punch people and he loves to get punched. Probably nostalgic. That's gotta be really scary when you're fighting someone who enjoys it. Yeah. And it's like, yeah, punch me. That's what I feed off of. Yeah. I know. That's gotta be really scary when you're fighting someone who enjoys it. Yeah. And it's like, yeah, punch me.

That's what I feed off of. Yeah. I know. No, he pulled up this YouTube video. He was like, check it out. And it was like this professional, famous boxer. He's like, yeah. He's like, I had him punch me.

And so he shows this YouTube video of just this professional boxer. And Chris was just there shirtless, holding this pose, just getting rocked in the body by this guy. Just, uh, uh, uh. And he's so proud of it. I'm like, dude, why would you want to do that?

Watch me get beat up, dude. Yeah, I get punched in the kidney once and I'm like, I gotta go home. How many people has he shown that video to? Like at a bar, he's like, watch me get punched. Check out this video. Yeah, I'm getting punched. That's cool, man.

All right, sick. Can you feel yourself getting tougher? Like, can you feel that level of progress? Because that's like the fun part of sports and hard endurance training yeah no i definitely do feel like every time i get punched it does feel like a little bit less like it hurts like i'm more ready for it i'm expecting it it doesn't take me as long to recover even within those four rounds like after he gave me a bloody nose, like he got me in the face more. It wasn't like he was like,

all right, I gave you a bloody nose, I'm just gonna try and hit the body. Like he kept punching me in the face and it was like every time I was like, I just gotta get back up quicker. Like I gotta get back up faster. And I'm just like, all right, keep going. Just waiting for that little, that timer to go off

that the round is over. Cause yeah, no no it's crazy. And so you'll be training for the next few months. Yeah. This is just the beginning. Yeah, this is just the beginning. And it's only gonna get tougher. I mean.

It's gonna get worse and worse. Yeah, he's just gonna keep punching me harder. But I will say it's nice to know in the back of my head that the person that I'm fighting, and honestly anyone that I will spar probably until the fight cannot punch me as hard as he did sure like he can't nobody's gonna be able to like hit me and put me through as much pain like he's so fast his hands move so fast it's like everything that I know about the sport once I'm actually sparring just goes out the window yeah like I can I can like slip slip and have defense and like block punches as much as I want

when we're doing like glove work and stuff. As soon as he's in there and throwing those punches, I'm like, I can't even see what's going on. Like I can barely throw punches myself. It's meditative. It's like you have to tap into something that's really focused. And I feel like that takes years and years and years to do.

Yeah. Very cool. It's like practice. Yeah. But it does feel good to get better i was even like talking to him yesterday when we were training like something clicks and it's like oh this footwork thing clicks where like i can feel the punch getting harder because of this thing that i figured out how to do with my body and feeling more comfortable throwing more punches

and more combinations like it does feel good to get better. But, you know, then when I fight against him, I feel like an idiot, and I feel like I can't even do anything, like, anything. But I feel like once I'm in there against someone who, like, is the similar skill level to me, everything's just gonna, like, slow down, you know? Cool. No amount of pain that he's put you through can compare

to the amount of pain that the Soviet government put him through. You know what I mean? That's true. And keep that in mind. Think about that. Think about that. No, I do. He often reminds me. I was going to say, how much does he talk about it?

All the time. I was going to say. It's awesome. I encourage it. I'll just ask him about it sometimes. I'll just be sitting there just doing like 200 crunches, and I'm like, so tell me a story about when you were young. Tell me the Soviet Union stories.

How was the Gorbachev? 200 crunches and I'm like so tell me a story about when you were young another thing that's coming up because I feel like you guys have so many things coming up is your live show you guys have a live show we have a live show which Trevor knows nothing about April 3rd uh 7 p.m pacific time live uh with kids week because we use our partner on that one and Trevor is competing in it yeah which means that Trevor doesn't know much about it at all. He knows when to show up, and he knows that he's wearing a cool costume. Mike Tyson is going to come out.

Grisha, he's going to put you through. No, but it is a cooking competition. It is the hardest cooking competition. It's going to be all four of the kitchen. It's going to be Trevor, it's going to be Lily, it's going to be V. It's going to be Nicole competing against each other for a grand prize. That is a secret right now, but it will be revealed that you are genuinely going to want to win.

No, Annalise asked me, she was like, do you have your passport? Like, is your passport up to date? And I was like, is this like a joke? Like, is the winner actually gonna get a trip to ask someone at any point? Like, is your passport up to date? I mean is the winner actually going to get a trip to ask someone at any point? Like, is your passport up to date? I mean, the only reason I asked for a passport is because you're going somewhere.

You are going somewhere. Punch it to the moon. But no, it's basically, you know, I have had to do so many very fun, but also very dumb and very hard things throughout Mythical Kitchen that has all been produced by all the kitcheneers. And so now I'm turning the tables and I am going to run them through the hardest cooking test possible. We have some really fun surprise guests coming up and I'm going to be drinking. Emily,

who was one of the funniest people I have ever had a chance to work with. Emily Fleming is going to be the bartender throughout this. You're going to be drinking and you're hosting and also telling them exactly what they need to do and judging them Okay, and then also going through some physical challenges myself. Yes physical. Yeah. Yeah. Do you plan on getting like drunk? No comment Moderation is not my strong suit in anything. Thank you Have you been drunk on a live show before because red link have done that type of thing before ever beaver been drunk during a

live show Mmm, I couldn't say I'm pretty responsible at work generally speaking comes to mind. Oh nothing comes to mind Hey, what you did pour a lot of olive oil on me during the good mythical evening obviously we've done good mythical evening Yeah, that live show and that one's a lot more sexual than this one is Because yeah, okay do that with each other and it's sure they've known everybody knows that lore. Yeah. Yeah, but Yeah Yeah, we got a lot of olive oil on that set during a live stream. That was the safety issue It's fun, but this one going to be slightly less sexual

Incredible. Thank you so much. The physical challenges that you're doing are going to be less sexual. Yes. And I love that. So are you, so you're going to be, that's great. Fantastic. You're going to be covered in barbecue sauce in the middle. Yeah. And they're going to be.

That's not sexual. That's sensual. That's different. That's sensual. That's for wedding. So they're going to be like in their own different areas. There's four of them. Yes. And they're going to be in their own different areas. There's four of them. Yes.

And they're going to be in their own different areas and they have no idea the challenges that are... They're not even slightly prepped. Not even slightly prepped for the challenges. And we are at some point... I'll give you some of the lowdown. At some point we are going to divide you up and you will have to compete one-on-one at points. You will have to compete all four. It's effectively like

Mario Party, I just realized, but in real life. Well, Trevor knows Mario Party. Yeah, he knows how to lose Mario Party. I'm really good at losing Mario Party. And there is going to be certain elements of deception and backstabbing, trying to sell your teammates down the river. We were inspired by a lot of the great TV shows of our generation, Squid Game, Survivor, Cutthroat Kitchen.

Squid Game? Squid Game, where they die Cutthroat Kitchen. Squid Game? Squid Game, where they die. Where they literally die. No, we're actually only speaking Korean is the Squid Game element. But we're really excited. We've been working super, super hard. I know, like, y'all have all produced live streams. And it's such a fun new challenge that we have never done before on the Mythical Kitchen side.

And so it's really cool because we now also have an excuse to do, like, bigger, better, cooler things. So are you going to have an audience in there? Or is it it's only gonna be live streamed only gonna be live streamed and there is like no room There's no room for anything else in the kitchen right now because we we've blocked out like all of the sort of locations I'm also gonna be running from location to location During this so this is happening at the mythical studio this is happening at the mythical studio yeah yeah what do you think we're gonna do i don't know four yeah you're asking that kitchen we know it's yeah that's insane i thought maybe we'd be going

somewhere we did ask you if you yeah i had a passport so i understand yeah we're going to greenland uh to film it that would be sick little traitor's action. Go to Scotland in a castle. That's even crazier. That kitchen is so small. Like, when you actually, like, put four people there trying to cook, it's tiny. A fun fact of lore is a lot of old Smosh sketches were shot in what is now the Mythical Kitchen. Yeah. Like, you watch, like, every Domino's ever. It's like, that was shot there.

Oh, my God. We used to film. I was in that. Yeah. I had, like. You were there? I was there, and it was such a weird time like me and damien were playing these characters who were like fighting over a buttery phone what a time yes that's tiny yeah it's not big it's gonna be real cozy it's gonna be real intimate in there yeah okay so are there like three different dishes you probably can't say anything never mind

so a lot of them are going to i will say the finale does involve cooking your best dish but only two people will be in that finale and what's your best dish trevor well there's gonna be some catches and you've you know there's gonna be some catches on what that best dish has to include i will say that i will say okay uh but otherwise a lot of it is uh you know gonna be testing your mental fortitude it's gonna be testing your speed it's gonna be testing your efficiency your ability to follow directions okay um your ability to get intense yeah that's really good for me yeah oh my god i have gotten so much worse at cooking i think after having like not now that i'm not cooking like full-time for another smosh you suck yeah now that i'm at smosh they made me bad at cooking yeah we're bad kids and you went to college for

baking yeah no my ba i i feel great about my baking i'll like bake bread at home made a lovely loaf of brioche um but no i feel like cooking i'm like i forget stuff sometimes like i used to just i don't know can i out of practice i to be completely honest. It was only in recent years when I was like, oh, baking and cooking are considered two different things. They are. Completely. I feel like baking, if you miss an ingredient, because I like to bake bread, and I feel like if you miss an ingredient, you are fucked. Is baking just anything to do with bread? No.

Is that what clarifies? What is the category of baking? Isn't baking like pies and cookies and tarts and all that it's not like a hard line per se of what what is cooking what is baking etc but i don't know how would you describe it because there's like baking and then there's like pastry the french have different words for all of it right yeah yeah i think that like like bread things specifically anything that's having to do with like anything yeasted or risen like that's gonna be where like the science and the precision really matters

cultures and all that yeah and then things like there are some things like i don't know making like a really nice smooth custard like that's like just a lot of like technical like timing stuff um it's like to me that's cooking like the custard is cooking i can make a custard right yeah once i start working with to me a lot of it's like to me that's cooking like the custard is cooking i can make a custard right yeah once i start working with to me a lot of it's like architecture in a way you know what i mean yeah like with actual pastry that's so true no yeah i made a i made a creme brulee a couple weeks ago that's my favorite dessert oh that's cool i love custard i bought a torch just for it yeah you have to yeah the top i went to a little sur la table got myself a torch just for it. Yeah, you have to. At the top.

I went to a little sur la table. I got myself a torch. Yeah, and some nice little creme brulee dishes. Oh, crazy. It was Valentine's Day. I wanted to make something special. Oh, I want that. That's amazing.

That's my cheater chef-ass dessert, is making some sort of creme brulee or a panna cotta will be my thing. But I'll grapefruit zest panna cotta. Because it's so good. Bergamot whipped cream, candied kumquat. What? You know?

Come on now. Like a creamy custard dessert is just so good. It's just pudding. It has to be done right, though. I feel like I love custard, but I don't really like super sweet desserts. I'm weird. I kind of like lavender and earl grey and ube, like all these different flavors. And so sometimes I'll get custard, like a banana custard, and I'm like, this is so sweet.

Let me sell you on grapefruit zest panna cotta. No, you said that? And the kumquat? I was like, that is my shit. A lot of bitter, a lot of acid, a lot of freshness cutting through it. You should have come over for Valentine's Day It would have been great Oh my god, it's my birthday

I should have been like, bye husband I'm going over to Chef Josh's house With his wife When you were in college for baking Was it like you had to bring in your sourdough loaves To the study hall It actually like Here's my sourdough loaf

Culinary school does just basically seem like a bit like they had me writing like i wrote an essay on like the origin and history of like like laminated doughs and croissants oh and then like i had my final and i had to make a souffle for a final i actually burnt the shit out of my thumb and finger because it was like a final and it was timed and like souffles like you got to get them right out of the oven um you don't want them to deflate so i had my souffles coming out of the oven but i'd already plated and i had to get the souffle onto the plate and i was like i won't be able to grab this with enough precision with like a towel and get it on the plate without screwing up the plating so i was like like, if I do it fast enough, it can't hurt that bad.

And so like straight out of the oven, I'm just like looking at this, and I just picked it up and put it on the plate really bad. It hurt so terrible. What was the material like? Was it like? It's like a ceramic. Okay.

Yeah. I don't know if it was like cast iron or something. Oh, that would be, that would suck. You'd die. And they're like. No, it was so bad. You should have spit on your hands. That would have helped you. Yeah. And so. Oh, that would be, that would suck. You'd die. And they're like. No, it was so bad. You should have spit on your hands. That would have helped you.

Yeah, and so. Oh, really? It has to heat the spit first. Just like instantly blistered. But I had to like take it up and like get grated. So I just go up and I like have my hand behind my back and I'm just like trying so hard to keep it together because my hand hurt so bad.

But yeah, I don't know. It's just silly. I just like come in and be like, oh, it's pizza day. We're making pizza. Normal college is also. I mean, that's like improv school. It's like, all right,

which character are you coming up with? And they're going to be in CVS and you got to talk to this random guy and let's get out the who, the what, the where. And you're like, here I go. Or you'll do like a whole space work challenge where it's like three minutes of you making coffee, but there nothing there it's all space is there a school like there's school because there's no college where you can major in improv though that'd be hilarious this is later

when you're an adult and you made the decision what you major in you know just figuring it out the gray area i mean i was a political science major, and I wrote a 10-page paper on the Iggy Azalea music video. It was spelled P-U dollar sign, dollar sign, Y. I don't know how to pronounce it. That's weird. Yeah, I wrote a very serious 10-page paper on that and subverting the male gaze. I don't know. How does that relate to poli-sci?

Who's to say? Who's to say? Who's to say? Yeah. So normal college is also a little bit of a bit, depending on what you study. You didn't go to culinary school. None. Not at all. You just learned it on the streets.

Culinary school at Hard Knocks. I love that, though. Yeah. And I have a lot of shortcomings in the kitchen because of it. Tons. Really? Tons. Yeah.

I don't know how to do a lot. Oh, ask me to fillet a fish. I can barely do it. I just watch the YouTube videos. I feel like that's... Wow. Fileting a fish is hard, though. Yeah, I don't know how to do a lot. Oh, ask me to fillet a fish. I can barely do it. I just watch the YouTube videos. I feel like that's filleting a fish is hard, though. Yeah, yeah. Wow. I mean, do you think in school you would learn all of those things?

Oh, you can't bake. Can't bake. No. Did you ever see me try stuff? Doesn't know what bread is. Baking is a totally separate thing. It's a separate thing. It's so hard.

When I had to learn how to bake, it was so many failed attempts. Baking my own culture was so many failed attempts making my own culture was so many failed attempts it's like there's so many things you can't control it's like heat temperature timing no you can let a dough sit out on the counter for like 15 minutes too long proofing and then the whole bread is just like torn and overproofed and crazy like it really is super precise i don't culinary school was every single day we did something different. Every single day we baked or made a different dish or dessert or something. And so it was like really like I learned so many techniques and about so many different kinds of foods, which was really helpful. Like it wasn't it was so much knowledge.

And it also helped me realize the things that i hate because i love baking but my like final final for my entire like culinary school like like time was a wedding cake and it was the worst thing ever really i had to like make i had to decorate like a wedding cake and it was awful and i hated it and that was the moment i was like i'm never making a wedding cake little oh yeah i was doing like gum paste flowers like i had to make like these hyper realistic like orchids like to go on the cake and it was it was so now you're gonna have to do that again yeah you're making your own wedding cake people ask me that like are you gonna make your own wedding cake i'm like hell no no i don't want to work you don't want to like did you want to cook on your wedding i know you didn't but like was that like ever a thought i i would have wanted to if it was just me i i catered a buddy's like

80 person wedding once just by myself like no help whatsoever that's crazy that's really hard i had the best time i love to it kind of it's the sicko mindset you know it's like i love i stayed up for like two straight days doing it it was awesome um so for my own i would have like wanted to do that and i even had talked to julia about doing that for a little like engagement party because we're gonna hire like a tacaro for it and i was like i can just do this all myself yeah but so much of it and so much of relationships i stare directly at you is about finding that compromise where you realize that it's actually been the coolest thing about marriage is like oh this is no longer about me like i've been indulging in my own kind of you know selfish bullshit for like my entire life of like well i want to do this thing and i'm gonna do it

yeah and now it's like well no this is for the the unit and for the greater good of what we're like you know going to achieve in our life and so yeah i was happy to just go along with the ride and yeah because at the end of the day she wants wants you. I feel the same way. I mean, my husband also, and it did happen the night before my wedding, he wanted to barbecue, like, literally, like, meats and vegetables on this huge grill in Santa Barbara for everyone the night before. And it was a big struggle of mine, but it was, like, something that was so important to him. And I was like, you know what? It's the night night before it's not our actual wedding you can do it did i see him

that whole night no but was he so fucking happy every picture of him is like and he has like just so much meat and like vegetables and i'm like okay well I can't take that away from him yeah but on our actual day I could see because she wouldn't ever see you exactly yeah she wouldn't see you and you'd be up all night thinking about it and I was like really shocked on my wedding day of like how present I was able to be in that moment because I don't know I kind of struggle with especially the very kind of sentimental stuff especially when it's something that's like very rote and de rigueur in life i kind of just like scoff at it a little bit but the actual like wedding ceremony i was so incredibly uh emotional during it and it felt like so hyper real uh in a way that i really didn't expect and it was it was like really meaningful

yeah i cried yeah trevor did you actually cry i cried at my house yeah we each had like five minute vows i think it was like i I think I had like it was like twice I think during I think it was when Jules was walking down the aisle and then oh, yeah a bride walking down the aisle I don't know. I always cry at weddings and then yeah during the vows. It was shed some tears like a really intimate setting to and Knowing that like Julia built the the chuppah and we had her grandfather's thales on it and her brother did the actual ceremony and he said some really sweet things.

Wow. So sweet. That is so sweet. And I'm glad I wasn't worrying about like, are the flautas still crispy? Yeah. Yeah, exactly. I also had a cocktail.

Cocktails during the ceremony. Whoa. That was something we made sure. You have a penicillin? Yeah, I had a penicillin. Cocktails during the ceremony. Whoa. That was something we made sure. Really? You have a penicillin? Yeah, I had a penicillin. Favorite cocktail of all time. You had cocktails during the ceremony?

Yeah. That's awesome. We got married at the same place, different times. Did you really? I didn't know that. We got married at the courthouse. I got Santa Barbara Courthouse. They didn't have cocktails.

You weren't allowed. I haven't been to many weddings where there's any drinks during the ceremony. I think it should be a must. Now that I'm like. It was awesome. That was like on our list. We're like, we don't want anyone to ever feel like they wish they had a drink in their hand and they don't. It's so much better because it really is like that whole, the ceremony part.

And I love the ceremony when you read your own vows and all that. But it's like with a little cocktail would be just so nice. And every wedding we'd been to, we're just like, we're sitting there during the ceremony and we're like, God, I wish I had a drink. Yeah. Yeah. Damn.

Damn. Damn. Well, we weren't allowed them. That was like the biggest thing. They were like, no champagne or anything. Do not fucking drink. It's like a park. Then they punch you in the face.

We did have an open bottle of Malort floating around, but we got married in a restaurant. Malort is the worst tasting alcohol. Have you had Malort? So bad. Have you heard of it? No. Jepson's Malort?

Does anybody in the room know Malort? That's what peasants call their king. Did you drink it? What? No, I didn't drink it because I've already drank it. And I had multiple people at different points come up and be like, you want some Malort? I'm like, no, go away.

What is this? It's from Chicago. It's one of those liquors that I believe the two main flavoring agents are Mugwort and Wormwood. No! Which just sounds like Harry Potter characters. It sounds like Jägermeister. But imagine that mixed with just like pure ether and like gasoline. Why?

Is it a thing? A friend brought it to the wedding, and we just started taking handle pulls. It was on New Year's Eve, and I think a lot of people... Did you stay through midnight? No, no. A lot of people got too drunk

and had to leave before midnight. Yeah. No, we bounced early. I felt bad. Well, you came by, and we were... Because it was indoors, but then there was this little outdoor patio area,

and so Raven and I, we took a break, went to sit outside, and you came by and handed me a warm bottle of champagne, and then you got up and walked away, and then I was like, I just have this warm bottle of champagne, and drinking champagne out of a bottle is just the worst thing.

It fizzes out of your mouth. It's too much. It's so awful, all it does is fizz, and then your brother came over, and I was talking to him for a while, and I was like, do you want this champagne? He's like, no, I don't know what to do with this so i just said it on the ground and then i think you still think about that bottle of champagne yeah no i felt bad because but i don't know i

don't think you thought about it i really didn't remember i was really stressed about it so i get that holy shit i realized realized something I meant to bring up At the start of this episode Is Amanda and I are doing Something very fun now From here on out on the podcast We have bingo cards So this has started at the beginning

Of this right of just there are things That Amanda and I tend to do Tend to say in every episode So Selena now has bingo cards for each of us. Oh, wow. That have a bunch of traits. And I think things have already been axed off. We're not allowed to know what's on the cards. We're not allowed to know.

Not specifically. No, we did like a whole community post about it, too. So, we're now just playing bingo. So, like, for instance, I think you mentioned the East Coast at some point. That's definitely something. My home town. Just like little things that we do and say.

So that's gonna be going on in the background now from here on out on this show. That's excellent. Starting with this episode. Wow. So I don't know. I don't know what things we marked off. Well the stripper definitely wasn't on there

because nobody knew about that. Not mentioning barbecue sauce being spilled on someone. Thank you for opening up to me. You're so welcome. I still watch the videos and cry. And I show Garnet and he was like, I don't need to see those.

And I was like, but it's so funny. He's like, his veins and his- Then he goes back to playing Civ. Exactly. Did he graduate from Civ? So I fucked up. What do you mean? A couple

episodes back, she was talking about how my husband plays Civ, but I was like he told me that he's retiring. Civilization? The game Civilization? You never heard of it? You never need to worry about it because you'll get addicted. Don't. Don't do it. I don't want to. So he was like I'm going to retire once I become immortal and I was like, awesome, cool. So

I fucked up. I was like hey, I went on the pot and said that you're gonna retire from civ he's like it's dota i'm gonna retire from dota he wasn't even that mad at all so he's still playing civ yeah he's still playing civ but he retired but he retired from dota he hasn't become immortal he's busy he's playing dota in the year of our Lord 2025. Yeah. That's incredible. Sick.

He's a gamer. He's Eastern European and he's a sick man. It's my favorite visual that you say. Sometimes you, you crack the door open and he's in there quietly speaking in Russian. Well, he has like five friends from, uh,

that he met online from Ukraine and Russia and Belarus that he's speaking Russian to them all night. So sometimes I'll be in the kitchen and I'll be like, da, da, da, da, da, da. I'm like, I like how after being you're married to him and that's your impression.

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da. Da, da, da, da, da, da, da. Have you not learned any? No. I'm a horrible bitch. Trust me. Speaking Russian. No, listen. Do you have like I love you down?

Like, do you know? No, she should have been able to say it. I have Sonishka, what he calls me, which is the sun. And that works. Like I told his mom, I was like, I got to learn Russian. She's like, do you have to? I was like, why? She's like, it's so hard.

You can't. You can't do that. But he'll try to teach me. Here's the thing. Don't try to learn another language from your husband. What? It's so, you get so frustrated with them because Because he's like, no, no, no. And it's like, my mouth doesn't work like that.

I didn't, but I'm going to. I will. I will do this. Trust me, I wake up in a panic being like, I gotta learn Russian. I really have to learn Russian. And then you look at the mirror and start going, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da. He would kill me if he heard me say that. Does he listen to the podcast ever?

No. Okay, good. No. That's good. We love each other. We support each other. He doesn't have to listen to everything. Okay, solid.

No, I'm bad. Wow. Horrible wife. Before we sign off, Selena wrote down a bunch of would-you-rathers. Let's quickly go through them. Oh, for both of us? Yeah, for the two. All right.

Okay, here we go. Would you rather have your secret recipe leaked or never make your signature dish ever again? Leak all my secret recipes. Man, there's no secrets online anymore. We've created our own police state in the name of content. Okay. Wow. All right.

Cook based on vibes or cook based off of a recipe? Oh. Surely. I always, there will be times when I choose to follow a recipe if it's something that I haven't cooked a lot. But I have so much more fun if I'm going on vibes. Okay. So definitely on vibes. I'm 100% a vibes based cook. I love that. I've been cooked a lot, but I have so much more fun if I'm going on vibes. So definitely on vibes. I'm 100% a vibes based cook.

I've been cooked from an actual recipe. I hate reading from a recipe. It's only something if I'm like, I really don't know how to make this thing. But yeah, cooking on vibes. Well, you read a recipe through, and then you're like, oh, I understand the technique, and I understand the why,

and then now you can start tinkering with it. Yeah. I like this one. Would you rather be vegan or gluten-free? Oh. Oh. Ooh, you're a baker. That's tough this one. Would you rather be vegan or gluten-free? Oh. Oh. Ooh, you're a baker. That's tough.

Because neither of you guys are vegan or gluten-free. No. No. I wouldn't say so. I think I might rather be vegan. I knew you were going to say that. I love sweets and desserts and bready things like too much. And I know that there are like really,

we've made so many advancements in the world of like gluten-free technology, but it's still just like, I think I would really miss it. We have a couple of gluten intolerant people in our office. And so we always have gluten-free options and I'm amazed how many gluten-free options there are out there. Yeah. They've really,

really cracked the code. I think, I think I would do, I mean, right now I do try and eat a lot of protein, but like, many gluten-free options there are out there. They've really cracked the code. They've cracked the code. I think I would do, I mean, right now I do try and eat a lot of protein, but my actual doctor has stopped doing that. Eventually, I do have plans to probably be something close to vegan. I think they're kind of correct about

most things. I actually cooked this crazy eight-course dinner feast for a vegan friend the other day. It was some of the most fun I've had. I think I would do really well at both.

The entire civilizations have thrived without gluten. You know what I mean? The Mesoamericans, wheat didn't exist. You look a lot of East Asian cultures just eat rice. And so I think I could do

both really well. But for right now with protein goals, I'd rather be gluten free. It's crazy because I feel like I actually really, I don't drink milk. Like, I don't really have milk, and I don't love cheese that much. The only thing that would be, like, probably, like, a change for me is, yeah, to, like, not eat chicken. But even that, like, I don't eat a ton of meat, I feel like.

So, and I love, I tell you what, I love a black bean burger. Oh, I love a black bean. I love eating meat, but I love, I don't know, it's just the world of food is just such an infinite opportunity to eat delicious things. And we were talking about other cultures earlier, like gluten-free.

Me and Julia were talking about this, and she was like, you eat flour tortillas all the time. I was like, I would merely switch to corn. I get the flour tortillas all the time. I was like, I would merely switch to corn. I get the flour tortillas for you, because you make quesadillas. I would just do that, and I'd be perfectly fine. You ever had that Brazilian cheesy bread, Bautique Ajo? You know what I mean? Little popovers?

Brazilian cheesy popover breads? I don't know if I have. You guys never been to Fogo de Chão? I've been once a really long time ago, and I need to go. Anyways, the only ingredient is cassava flour. fogo de chow? No. I've been once a really long time. Oh, wait, I haven't once for a while ago. You have your little roll. Anyways, the only ingredient is just, it's cassava flour,

you know? Yeah. It's barely gluten-free. I just make cassava flour everything. Oh, that sounds amazing. But I understand that's like very specific

to me. Yeah. Because I love cooking and all that. Last one I can think of is what carb would you have to eat for the rest of your life

if you had to pick one? See, it's like potatoes, pasta. Oh, that's a good one? See, it's like potatoes, pasta. Oh, that's a good one. What, rice? Rice. Yeah. Millet, sorghum.

And bread. And bread. And bread, so you have to pick one. It's like for me, I'm like, man, to go without potatoes. Every form of them are so good. Mine's bread. Bread. I love bread so much.

Yeah, it'd have to be bread. Potatoes would be really, that would be a really hard thing to give up, but I still think I'd pick bread. It's my New Year's resolution to eat more potatoes this year. Because I just, I don't like cook with them that much. I've never been, I love fries, obviously. But to me, like almost, there's so many potato dishes that I think would be like better with other vegetables. But I'm trying, that's my own bias.

And I'm trying to get over that. But like flatbread specifically, the best genre of food, it exists in almost every culture, some sort of flatbread that you swipe through a spicy stew. Yeah. That's tortillas, that's naan, that's lavash. Even looking at Nigeria, you have the swallows and the stews. It's just some sort of tacky bread thing.

human clinical trial. Essential prenatal is proven to deliver key nutrients, including folate, biotin, and vitamin D during pregnancy.
