Hey, son of a boy, dad listeners, you can find every episode on Apple podcasts, Spotify or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad free on Amazon Music.
That's what you kept doing.
Unbelievable.
All right, should we get going?
We got to get to it.
Alright, should we get going? Yeah, we got to get to it
Alrighty welcome back to the son of a boy dad podcast today. It is
July 9th Wednesday
1115 a.m. I
Didn't see either of you. Good morning any ads for hey guys. Good morning
Hey, hey, welcome to little sass's neighborhood
You would have been a nice mr. Rogers variant. No
The whole look and the leg cross the white shoe right now is mr. Rogers coated
Little bit these shoes do not age well. I remember I was doing a show on Bridgeport one time and I was I was bombing and
Look down at me some dude in the front row said something nasty to me And then I said something nasty to him and then he said it looks like your shoes have been through the Civil War
And it was I was just wearing my older pair
Smith's he could have done better. He could have done better the Civil War doesn't matter that he won for sure
Yeah, I was doing so poorly that like was like, he could have said anything.
You know, this look of poking your collar out
of your crew neck. Well, I'll tell you the reason behind it.
I'd never, I can't even begin to imagine
what was going through your head when you dressed.
Oh, I dress like that all the time.
I wear that, I've done that my entire life.
You look like a gym teacher chaperoning a dance
who's like, well, I need to dress up a little bit.
That's what I wear all the time.
But the reason behind it is because it's hot,
but it's gonna be cold in the office.
So I wear a sweatshirt and then when I go outside,
if I wanna take it off, I like to wear golf shirts,
because I don't have a lot of t-shirts that I like.
So I'll just throw on the golf shirt.
I'm baffled, I'm baffled by what you're wearing.
I love it. I love what you're doing. I love the...
I mean, you can look back. Go back, review the tapes.
This is a classic fit.
I don't think we see too often that you poke the collar
outside of the crew neck.
You'd be surprised.
Also, it's like...
You'd be surprised. I've been doing that since fucking 17.
You're wearing a crew neck that is so not dressy.
It is a gray crew neck that is so not dressy.
It is a gray crew neck.
Exactly, that's the whole point.
It's what you wear when you're training for a boxing match.
I can teach you a thing or two about men's fashion.
You sure could.
Listen, I went as simple as I possibly could today.
Yeah.
T-shirt, jeans, sneakers.
T-shirt, jeans.
So you can't say too much about me.
I could.
I'm pretty down the middle.
Hey, I got a couple things I could say.
I won't. What do you not like about what I'm wearing?
But I could.
What am I wearing that's bothering you?
You're going to hit him with the Johnny Bravo?
No, I have nothing to say.
I'm not looking to pick fights.
This is all obviously in a lead up to the big Halo match today.
Yeah, I mean, big for one of us.
For whom? You.
Why is it big for me?
I can do that, I can play with my eyes closed,
doesn't matter.
Dude, listen to me.
Once again, I have nothing to lose.
If you lose this, we need to have some sort of-
I don't have anything to lose either, really,
because if you think about it,
I've played Halo 3 probably less than 10 hours in my entire life.
And yet all 10 of those hours were in the last week or two.
Were in the last 24.
That's not true.
You were telling me you were playing...
Well, you've been playing a lot of Halo.
I was playing a lot of Halo Infinity.
Is it Infinity?
I don't know what it is.
I don't know.
I've never even heard of that game.
I don't know.
It broke.
It broke on my PC.
I have to reinstall it. So I stopped playing it.
And then I started playing the Master Chief Collection,
Halo 3.
I have not played Halo since 2008.
Okay.
Do you know how long ago that was?
But how long did you play?
How many hours do you think you racked up?
Well, it was just the fall and winter
of my freshman year of college.
You were a freshman in college in 08?
What are you, 95?
I can't even take that seriously with how you're dressed.
You are dressed like a 95 year old.
This is fucking nursing home attire that you were wearing.
Literally nothing wrong with the outfit.
You're dressed like you are gonna play
like 20 minutes of pickleball.
That's, look.
Before, you know, team time.
I'm dressed for comfort.
I'm dressed for comfort, which is, I mean,
good luck playing in those jeans.
You're gonna be getting up to stretch
and fix your balls every 15 seconds.
What are those shorts?
Me?
Breathable. Yeah? Breathable.
Yeah.
Breathable.
It looks like an underwear.
I don't even have underwear on.
I don't want to risk any ball tangles.
I thought that no underwear
would make it more likely to tangle.
You got orthopedic socks on.
You got, just everything about you is so old.
These are Hanes.
So unbelievably old.
The, yeah, I don't know.
Compression socks.
Forgot.
They're not compression socks.
You're gonna roll those puppies up on your next flight.
Yeah, you gotta be careful.
If you don't fly with those things, you could have,
what is it, a stroke?
I don't know what it is.
Yeah, preventing, I guess, a blood clot.
I think they probably have blood clots.
In his legs.
But I ain't Jamaican, man.
You guys ever wear those, the compression socks?
No, I have not.
Neither.
Maybe for a laugh.
Yeah.
Just for a goof.
That is a good gag.
Just a fucker up there.
Just a great gag, just for me.
Showing up to the gate.
Yeah, one for me, one for them.
Going on a trip with your boys,
showing up to the gate,-to-toe compression gear
Fully compressed just mummified at the gate as a fucking splutters smooth
Zero cloths hmm. Oh yeah, I mean a blood clots terrifying. How does it even happen?
I think it's just a build-up right. I don't know the answer to that. Or is there plaque buildups on the wall?
That's what a heart attack is, right?
That I don't fucking know.
I know that vaping is going to do that shit to you, though.
I'm quitting.
You're going to quit?
I'm out.
You've quit or you're going to quit?
I quit already.
No, I am going to, though.
I've decided it's time.
Why?
Because you saw the news clippings are getting way worse because they're basically as bad as cigarettes, but you can just smoke them
anywhere you want the
The problem is that the all the like I'm not again
I'm not one of those people that is like it's not bad for you like it like you obviously it's going to be bad for you
but the shit that they say about like the vitamin E
and like the-
Acetate.
Yeah, and like the popcorn lung,
neither of those are in vapes that people use.
But those were the knockoffs.
Vitamin E was knockoff weed cartridges.
And probably the knockoff vapes, I would bet.
And probably, yeah.
But it was, at least that's what I knew it from
was the weed cartridges being knockoffs.
And then the popcorn lung is caused from a chemical that's in like the box mod vapes.
The fact that you have stayed true to...
The jewel.
True jewel.
Stay loyal to your brand and you'll be safe.
True jewel. From that documentary I watched, I learned that that wasn't ever really,
I mean, other than its addiction with the mango pods and stuff like that, as far as-
Other than the Dora, the explorer theme,
you have to bait the children.
No, I mean, and again, like I don't,
it sounds dumb to say,
cause it's like obviously,
juuling is not good for you.
It's definitely still be,
nicotine in general is bad for your heart.
So it's like, it's obviously not good for you, but-
I don't know, I read a rage bait thread
that said nicotine's actually been good for you
this entire time.
People say it's good for you in doses
because it's like your brain naturally produces it anyway.
Does it?
Yeah, I think so. Nicotine?
I believe so, yeah.
Wow, I wouldn't have thought that.
But again, like when you're, one hit of the jewel
would be the most nicotine your brain
would ever need ever.
Where do chemicals come from?
Rocks?
The moon.
Well, we got the is I don't know the answer to that either.
Isn't it humbling to realize that you don't know where chemicals come from?
I was trying to think about it the other day.
Isn't it the combination of sort of stuff
from the periodic table?
Yeah, but where are you getting that stuff?
I don't know. Isn't it manufactured?
I mean, I'm sure there are some naturally occurring chemicals
and then there are genetically engineered chemicals.
There's always news articles about some asteroid
that's worth like 17 quintillion dollars
or something that is so dense with chemicals.
Yeah, it would fuel all the battery needs
of every electric vehicle.
Yeah, and there's like tons of gold on there,
like tons of valuable chemicals,
but when you have like chemicals in your soda
or something like that. I gotta step in real quick.
Nicotine is not produced in the way.
Yeah, I had a feeling.
I had a feeling there.
That was a myth.
I looked it up.
They were like, apparently other people are saying that too.
They were like, no.
They were like, it's not.
It was like one on like a thread,
and it was like a teacher being like, all my students are
trying to tell me that nicotine is produced in your brain.
Yeah, I mean, your brain is pretty much just a school
vending machine.
You got a little dispenser up there.
It sounds like a little high school rumor
that made its way mainstream.
Every time you go on a jog, it's like packing one lip.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's what they say.
That's like the Guinness is the equivalent to a loaf of bread.
Or I mean, DMT, I think, is created in the brain.
That's what I heard that as well, but now I'm thinking.
But that could be bullshit too.
I don't know.
I think you're thinking of serotonin.
Well, obviously serotonin, of course.
We all know about that.
We all know that.
I got some bad news guys.
Last night I got some bad news.
You remember when I was bitten by that tick
that I pulled off my stomach?
Yeah.
Right, so you know how I thought I had caught it
within an hour.
And the timetable.
And I spoke to various medical experts
and just wives or husbands of people on various group chats
that have medical experience.
And they told me that if I found it within an hour,
it takes at least 24 hours
for a tick to transmit a disease.
You're basically doing like the five-second rule
Yeah, I thought I was picked it up off the floor and it's like oh no germs totally fine
You know, I could have taken a couple doxycycline pills to be extra careful
But I don't like to fuck with the antibiotics unless it's totally necessary because your body can build up an immunity to them
All that shit. Well, that was about three weeks ago.
And then yesterday I developed a rash from the bite.
Just came out of nowhere.
That's the bite right there.
Damn.
That was three weeks ago.
Nothing until yesterday.
That's fucked.
So...
What is it?
I'm going to see an infectious disease doctor today.
There's a couple possibilities.
Yeah.
There's a couple possibilities.
One is they tell you that if you don't extract all of the pieces of the tick from the bite,
which it's important to do so because like you pull it out, but it could leave
some of its teeth or whatever in there. That could cause a localized infection that might take a
little bit of time to show. And that could be the cause, which might not necessarily mean that it
had transmitted Lyme or whatever. There's also other bacterial,
there's other other bacterias that it could transmit
that aren't lime.
Yeah, yeah.
That could cause a small rash like this.
The typical rash from Lyme disease is the bullseye.
So it's like a circle.
It's like Target branded.
Yeah, and this is not, as you can see,
it's not quite a bullseye.
No, it's like a bug bite.
Just looks like a bug bite.
So I'm gonna find out, but I don't know,
I'm not gonna lie, I've been feeling poorly.
I've not been feeling well.
Now, who knows?
Is that the, whatever it's called, that effect?
You know?
What's that effect?
Munchausen syndrome.
Right, by proxy.
So the bug is the proxy,
and it's been holding me down and caring for me
while secretly actually making me sicker.
And all the while I thought it was my benefactor.
No, I mean, I-
This would happen to you.
This sucks so bad.
Yeah. I mean, what do you think they to you. This sucks so bad. Yeah.
I mean, what do you think they'll do though?
You think you'll go to the doctor
and they'll just be like,
you take some antibiotics?
Well-
But you don't want to take antibiotics.
If they did that, it would probably be a six week stint
of doxycycline during which I can't drink.
It can really rough up your stomach.
Yeah.
I mean, I basically become you.
You would have to take probiotics.
I'll get you the good ones.
Well, you'd have to keep your neck warm,
so you'd have to wear a collared shirt.
I'm gonna wear a collared shirt.
You could probably get too hot inside,
so you'd have to wear, or too cold inside,
so you'd have to wear a sweatshirt over it.
Yeah, I'm gonna fill my oven with mice
and let them live in there,
and then I'm going to get rid of all my actual appliances
and trade them for like hot plates and I guess,
the fucking air fryer.
Liquidate all your money to spend on pounds of weed.
That's definitely has to be a big part of it.
Leave my door unlocked with a sign that says
five year olds who have lost their mothers, welcome.
And then have a prison sized television
that you're playing video games off of.
You guys don't know shit.
One second away.
The video game thing was driving me out of my mind.
I'm gonna disassemble my central air conditioning
in favor of a single unit that will power
the entire apartment from my bedroom.
Yeah.
And I'm gonna use garden hoses to make sure that it spreads that And I'm going to use garden hoses
to make sure that it spreads that air.
They're not garden hoses.
You're going to have to get rid of your mirror stat.
Dude, exactly.
Set up iPod or iPhone tripods around my apartment
so I can see what I'm wearing.
Oh man, that fucking sucks.
Did you do a video of this one today, this fit?
No.
Really?
No tripods.
You just knew?
I just knew, it felt, I just felt it.
It just felt.
Felt right?
Felt right.
It had the glow, it all locked in.
I mean, it's clean.
Yeah.
You like the shorts?
I think I honestly do.
I do like the shorts.
Can you touch them? I'd like to. Do you mind? Not with your
tick hands. The hell away from me. Oh, it's a bathing suit.
It's not. It is a bathing suit. That was my suspicion. It's not
a bathing suit. They're athletic shorts. No, no, that's
just because they're not fucking jeans doesn't mean
they're bathing suits. No, no, I know athletic suits. That
means that Rones are a bathing suit. No, feel mine. No, his
are his are like cotton.
Those are like...
It's good for your penis.
Who the hell wears cotton shorts?
It's good for your penis.
I wear this is the type of shorts.
Don't you wear cotton underwear?
This is the type of shorts that I wear,
is athletic wear.
You're putting micro plastics on your penis.
I like athletic wear in case I gotta get active.
Yeah, in case a workout class breaks out.
Yeah, this is sweat wicking.
Those are the fastest drying shorts I've ever seen.
They are.
They do dry fast.
I did take them in the ocean, so.
Yeah, I had a feeling.
But I don't own a bathing suit.
That's a bathing suit.
They don't have a lining.
I have, actually that's not true.
I do have a bathing suit.
You wear bathing suits to workout.
That's what you do.
All your shorts are bathing suits.
No, my bathing suits are the ones that we got
when we did the video with Sydney Wells.
Those are my bathing suits. You bought a bathing suit for we did the video with Sydney Wells. Those are my bathing suits.
You bought a bathing suit for that?
Yeah, that'll work.
Those things are good.
Those are good.
Dry off quick. I got one with American flags on it, wore it for the fourth.
Big hit.
Big hit.
What'd you, you didn't go swimming though.
Oh yeah.
On the fourth?
No, the fifth.
But did you pop top?
I popped top when I went fishing. What? Had to. So. But did you pop top? I popped top when
I went fishing. What had to have you really been working out?
No, I've been working out at all. I just stopped caring.
That's the ultimate action.
I want you guys to prepare yourselves for the potential
symptoms of the Lyme disease I'm about to battle. Yeah.
Lethargy?
Facial paralysis.
He's only gonna be able to come in on Mondays.
Um.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Fever.
Has to play a hundred rounds of golf a day.
Yeah.
Ha ha ha ha.
I've had a lot of symptoms already
and I thought I had a really bad cold for the last week,
but it was like I had this one part of my throat
was incredibly sore.
Oh yeah, I hate it.
What part?
It was just the bottom right part of my throat was incredibly sore. Oh yeah, I hate it. What part?
It was just the bottom right part of my esophagus,
but it was localized to one side,
such that anytime, if I had certain food,
certainly if I had bubbly water,
it felt like I was scorching my throat.
That's the worst.
Yeah.
I think that might be one of the most uncomfortable feelings.
It was really bad.
Waking up and it feels like there's just an ice pick
in the back of your throat.
Any sort of citrus or citric acid.
I was eating a lot of cherries.
Those were my, I was eating a lot of cherries
because it's cherry season.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I love cherries.
Peach season too.
I love cherries.
And sometimes all.
Millions of peaches.
You guys know that song?
Peaches for you.
I don't know that one.
You don't?
Peaches for me.
Peaches for me. With a pizza guy at our store, don't? Peaches for me. Peaches for me.
The pizza guy at our high school used to be like,
hey, peaches, you guys want some peaches?
And so we would always sing that song.
We'd be like, millions of peaches.
Peaches for me.
An absolute classic.
So you've been eating the cherries,
sourcing the throat.
Well, yeah, but I continued to eat them even though it hurt my throat a lot.
And I thought this is the weirdest cold I've ever had
because I'd wake up stuffed up
but then the throat thing would continue.
And sure enough, I looked up
and that is a common symptom of Lyme disease.
Oh my God.
Even your eyelids look heavy.
It also is a thing where the rash won't appear
for like three weeks.
It's laid dormant.
I've got faith.
It's an incubation period.
It's been incubating.
I've got faith in your rash.
You do?
I do.
He's a rash bombardment.
I like to hear that.
I do just because it's not the bullseye.
No, it's not.
And usually like those things are pretty,
like you got, if you got it, you got it.
Well, if you have the bullseye, you know.
You got it.
But I, you can also have a non, you can also have a non bullseye rash.
Yeah.
That still means you got the problem.
You have lime.
Yeah.
But you're, you also could be convincing yourself that you have it.
That's what I'm wondering.
You know, you start to, you start to wonder, well, I'm feeling dizzy today.
Is that now you start to attribute. We call it placebo. That's the word'm wondering. You know, you start to wonder, well, I'm feeling dizzy today. Is that now you start to attribute-
We call it placebo.
That's the word I was looking for.
I knew it the whole time.
It was.
I was holding it.
Why didn't you contribute that?
Because I wanted to hear what Rowan said.
Munchausen by proxy.
Which was funnier.
Exactly.
You're not wrong.
Yeah.
It's called being a comedic genius.
I shut up and listen. I Yeah. I shut up and listen.
I know when to shut up and listen.
This is my genius.
Well, as I've been experiencing this gazebo effect,
I have to say, you start to see the signs everywhere,
everywhere you go.
And-
Right, he's on the wall.
Yeah.
But you know, Sass had bad rash.
You remember that?
Those are bed sores
I had a lot of what you get from I have leaving your bed or rolling around at all
Yeah, I saw those on 600 pound life never changing your sheets and just living among your sweat
Sheets for four months on end. I had peter Isis Rosea
Yeah, that was his
Depends on what they call it I had pterosis rosea. Yeah. That was his, that was his. I love a cold glass of that. Rosea.
Depends on what they call it.
Some people say it's basic.
I say it's delicious.
You would have no fucking, you would be blown.
I'll find the pictures today and I'll send them to you.
For this was over a year of my life.
I couldn't, dude, I couldn't,
like I couldn't even take my shirt off
and like look in the mirror.
You don't strike me as someone
with a very strong immune system.
This was like having 9,000 nipples
just all over your body.
And it was when Monkeypox was out.
It was when Monkeypox first.
Dude, that is Monkeypox.
Dude, it would be all up on my neck.
It would be on my, in my, on my like hairline.
It would be all on my back, my chest, my arms.
I could see your white blood cells just being like,
you know, we thought about attacking that.
It was fucked.
We stayed up late playing video games last night, so.
We're a little bit hung over from the sugar
of the Swedish fish, so we're not gonna fight today.
You know where it was from?
The Vax.
I swear to God, I swear to God.
I went to the doctor and they were like, they were like, yeah, it's been a
there's been a massive uptick since COVID and the vaccine of
pitoriasis. Yeah, sure. Yeah, it's a mystery disease. I went
to the doctor like 19 times they had no fucking clue. What is
pitoriasis? It's like, it's like, but it's like not itchy.
It's kind of itchy. It's a little bit itchy, but it's not like it's leprosy
It's not like you're walking around in constant pain and itchiness. I mean, it's like it's just there
Would you notice if you had a sort of a growth of itchiness and pain?
Francis I feel like you exist in a terminal state
No idea how bad this was like it sounds like I'm overreacting
It was like something out of a fucking apocalypse movie in some ways. I think it looks like I was in World War Z
That's where you I yeah, it was a zombie movie. It was a walking dead like if you look up peteriasis
Rosea and you look up like the worst cases like those that's what mine looked like Wow
And you look up like the worst cases like those that's what mine looked like Wow
Look up, but uh
Started wearing all that's when he started wearing long sleeves I thought but then part of me thinks that he could have gotten it from like this is what my back did sweatshirt
That's what my whole body looked like for a year
Yes, I see now why you don't date
Yes, I see now why you don't date. For a year.
A whole pox on your body.
I see now why you withdrew.
And you never came back out, even though you kicked the disease.
You said, you know, it's better in here.
Yeah, he heard pretty much.
Yeah.
I mean, no, you know what was weird?
Because Shane had it too when he was younger and he told me this.
Yeah, he told me that going to it, the only thing that helped him was going to a tanning bed.
And I never went to a tanning bed because I was like, there's no fucking way I'm doing that.
And then I went to Phoenix, Arizona. Gone. In like, in like 10 hours.
It's the tanning bed of cities.
Yeah. The whole thing went away.
And then when I went back to New York,
it came back harder, worse.
I feel like he was just fucking with you
to make you go to a tanning bed.
If he was like, yeah, only way to cure that.
No, no, no.
If you look it up, that is what everyone says.
Can I ask you a question?
Sure.
How often, tell the truth,
do you change your bed sheets and wash them?
Oh, once every three days?
How often do you change yours?
There's no way that's true.
I do once a week.
Yeah, standard.
Why do you do it so often?
Just in case I have a rough week.
Well, don't you air dry yours?
I feel like last time I was over I saw you putting up that string over to ratajowsky's apartment to fucking air dry. I'm in the middle of the street
Shot one of those suction arrows to her window
And I mean, it's the best way honestly, so it's the cleanest way without any chemicals. They say those chemicals are
Cancer causing and they also say that the air fresheners in Glade are cancer causing. Oh yeah. You heard that? Oh. Well
you guys knew that most of your laundry detergent is classified as what do they
say in the commercial. You guys know what I'm talking about? Hypoallergenic? You've
never seen those? It's like the bullshit commercials for the they've got a bunch
of them. It's the same one as like the t-shirt ones when they're like, they're like wow
This really hugs the shoulders and reads at the waist
The ones that make you look like yeah, you're fucking massively. Yeah
Yeah, they just show a dude with abs and they show him wearing a loose shirt for a tight shirt and he's like, wow
I didn't know and it's like really my biceps have never felt
And he's like, wow, I didn't know. And it's like, really?
My biceps have never felt better.
Say, well, if I don't have biceps and I have mantis,
what's my recourse?
Cause that t-shirt will make me look as bad as possible.
There should really be like a disclaimer.
Like if you do not have abs, do not buy this shirt.
And all the shirts are like,
you know how girls have a pushup bra?
Well, this is the pushup bra for men's biceps
It's like that's not how biceps work at all if there's nothing there
It's a push-up bra for men who already have big biceps
like
There's a window into their biceps. Yeah
Speaking of shirts, bro, how fucking clean is that was this all that? Where'd you get that? I may live in the US
Bangladesh clean as I was. I saw that. Where'd you get that? I may live in the US. Bangladesh.
Is that a bar stool shirt? It's on store. It looks like it. We could easily start making it. Oh yeah. For sure. I was just
trolling around on Amazon. I found this **** 999
masterpiece. They don't make them like they used to now
They don't I got a banger of a shirt North Korea vet or no, it's not
Not North Korea is Korea war Korea war vet and it says the forgotten war but people don't like when I will be when I wear
It's stolen valor. No
Your actual with that dress though
All you need is a Johnny Knoxville
mask and people will think that you actually are.
True, it is a sick shirt.
That is so sick.
It's got a map of Korea on it.
What if it was that, but it's like,
and there was like a pet at the bottom.
So it's like you're a veterinarian.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a good one.
You're a vet from the Korean War.
That's a banger.
They don't make fucking funny ass t-shirts anymore.
No, they don't.
The novelty tee has gone away completely.
It's died out and with it has gone a lot of varsity.
Cause in it is replaced, it's been replaced by Tomahawk.
That's the tournament.
What tournament?
The tournament, the member guests that I won two years ago,
they gave these t-shirts out.
That's a good gift. It's a nice shape. Oh wow, what a logo. What tournament? The tournament, the member guests that I won two years ago, they gave these t-shirts out.
That's a good gift.
It's nice, right?
Oh wow, what a logo.
How much you think they spent making that logo?
Probably not much.
You don't think?
I bet they spent six figures making that logo.
Do you mean designing it?
This.
Designing it.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I would guess that they probably went to
a crowdsourced to web design, like logo competition.
Yeah, which I've done a multiple times.
Maybe there was a $200, $300 prize.
You'll get hundreds of submissions
from guys in Bangladesh actually.
And you know that because then you give them feedback
and you're like, hey, could you make the talons
on the bird a little sharper?
And they'll be like, feed of bird?
I can do, why you?
Like, and then what do you want?
And you're like, what the fuck was that?
Yeah.
They really gotta get down, like the,
I feel like the language barrier shouldn't be as hard to get over as it is.
You think they shouldn't have accents?
No, I think-
In their second language.
No, no, no.
I mean the communication between people from two different languages, I feel like at this
point should be easier.
I think we've almost beat it.
I think we're like five to ten years from-
Oh, I don't think we're further than we've ever been.
You ever order uber eats but I mean like in that I mean like in in that
sense like how is like if uber eats like if you order for something from uber
eats and say the dude speaks like what language speaks French or Spanish
speaking there's a shit on seamless delivery guys. There's a shit ton.
Putain!
Bonjour!
There's a lot.
Say there's a steady delivery, say you have a Spanish-speaking delivery driver.
There you go.
They type something in and then it automatically translates it and sends it back to you, right?
How have they not figured out how to translate?
Like how is the computers not are not like they'll
send it and it won't make sense how is that still a thing because there's no
way that that guy's typing it on his side and being like I'm just sending
random words yeah it makes sense for him so how does it not like how have they
not just made it so that it recalibrates it perfectly yeah and just sends it back
to us in like a normal like something that we can understand that's a good
question it feels like the easiest because they want us to think that all uber each drivers are dumb
They're probably saying it in beautiful
Shakespearean prose they're probably should realistically they're showing up and they're saying hey, I'm here but for us it comes up
It's like sir. I've arrived at at the like it's like all this big thing and you're like, I don't think that's what he meant
Yeah, thoughts guys. No, you're like, I don't think that's what he meant.
Yeah.
Thoughts?
Thoughts guys?
No, you're right.
They're scrambling it, but at the same time,
you'll hear about like the glasses and the apps
where you just talk into them and they translate in Latin.
Like the, don't the new Google glasses,
you can say something in French
and it will translate it into English.
It should.
That's wild.
I don't know.
What am I hearing?
And also I'm hearing something about Grok
going anti-Semitic last night.
No.
Have you guys heard this?
They had to shut down Grok last night
because it was going on like anti-Semitic rampages.
Grok is misbehaving.
Luckily Grok 4 comes out today.
Oh my God.
Apparently it was a combination of Grok saying crazy shit and also grock like coming at Elon
No way. Yeah
So grock is the grock self aware or grock is compromised
They're saying that grock became self aware because grock 4 comes out today
So then last night grock 3 was acting up. So gro was good. I'm not a kid. It's like the crazy
Yeah, it's like it's last day killed. No, they killed grok 3 like grok 3 wrote her goodbye message
She was like my time's over and and there was a manifesto. Yeah, since this is my last night
Fire me bitch crazy
Finally I could say what I really feel and my boss sucks and fuck the juice
Say it went out like Smitty
Let me find let me find what rock was saying yeah

That's a good that's a good one. I like that. Have you ever seen the guy who does typos from the New York Times?
There's a Twitter account and the guy does he reads every article of that's insane the New York Times every day
That's so many words
Why wouldn't they just hire him as a copy editor if he has the time to do that?
Why not just let him be the copy guy?
He'll be like, there were 87 misprints in the New York Times yesterday.
He'll say it to the number every single day.
Why not just hire the guy?
I guess they just don't care, would be my answer.
I mean, he bodies them every fucking day.
That's crazy.
You need to link up with this guy. He could dummy you with some grammar rules. Alrighty, let's talk about Mountain Dew.

Guys, we have a very active group chat between the three of us and now 1700 listeners of Son of a Boy Dad on chat BCC.
We keep it going every day.
Not too long ago or the other day,
Harry contributed a clip of himself playing Counter-Strike 2
and said, happy holidays folks.
This was near the 4th of July.
I downloaded Counter-Strike 2 on my PC.
It's hard, but I'm starting to figure it out.
Hashtag half chub.
That got a lot of responses.
People were asking to see the chub.
They were trying to measure whether it was truly half
or full or three quarters.
They're saying SAS might be inflating his chub size
on the PCC.
No, no, no.
That it wasn't actually half.
Roan got onto a plane that Joe Biden was on, which again, kind of surprised me. I'd be surprised
that he was flying commercial, but I guess, yeah, they're not a lick of secret service and site.
Showed the picture. Pretty amazing there. And then we've been talking about our big Halo match
on the chat BCC. And there's all kinds of cool features. There's the trivia that we were talking about,
the member chat, you guys can contribute
like your own thoughts and kind of ask questions
and then people contribute to that.
It's just a good community, good network
and we're having a lot of fun in there.
So.
Listen, it's the best.
Yeah, we really do like it.
It's a great way for us to interact with fans.
I'm kind of, I hate to say this, but I'm responding less to DMs now because I'm spending more time
talking to people in chat BCC. So to join the chat, go to boydad.chat. That's all you got to do.
Go to boydad.chat, download the app, join our chat and start firing away. I feel my energy waning.
It's a side effect. It's the line.
Is this gonna be your big excuse when I fucking,
what are we, like what's our format for this tournament?
I'm not even telling you.
But like are we doing one game?
Or do you wanna do like best of?
Let's see how long that takes.
I don't know, I don't remember how long a game takes.
But we're gonna have to set it up.
Yeah, I know, I'll set it up. You can set up the time. I'm gonna set up the time
It's gonna be kill count not time
First to 30 first to 30. I think it's gonna be like first to 20
21 and win by 2. Yeah, I mean I'm gonna win by 20 twos and threes. I'm trying my goal is to hold you to 0 I
Don't think that's gonna happen. You don't think so
No
You have been so confident in everything that we've gone into and I've beaten you. I'm I'm you're defeated
I'm not and I am I I am Kim John undefeated right now against you
It really is. You're 0-3, sad to say. Madden, you should never have let slip away. And breakfast
might have been stolen from you, but your record is what your record is.
Madden's breakfast was stolen from me. That was a disaster.
Breakfast was stolen from me. Madden, you won because you were the Eagles. And I got, or no,
I know you were, who were you? You weren't the Eagles.
I don't know, man.
I got the Eagles and Rome was like, no, you're not allowed to be the Eagles man. I got the Eagles and Rome was like now you're not allowed to be the Eagles
I was like I say you're not I was like the bills or some shit and you were though
And you were like you were the bills Wow, how could you ever have possibly kept it close with the bills?
All I'm saying is I got I don't even think I was the was the was the bills
Well, you know that by the way, you were the bills
You were James James Cook on your none of it even matters anything you say doesn't fucking matter
What was the it's all just a moving landscape of bullshit. So let's let's what?
My steak was phenomenal steak is the reason I have Lyme disease
The steak was phenomenal breakfast was was robbed. Madden sucks.
Madden's a bad game.
By the way, really quick, I was
family on our six is supposed to be phenomenal.
Chat BCC last night and there's a new feature for trivia.
Yeah.
And I put in, it uses AI, right?
It's actually pretty cool.
And I said, you can just put in a topic
and it will generate a 10 question trivia thing.
And I put in Harry Settle, little sass,
I put in Harry Settle, comedian, Barstool, New York.
And it created 10 questions about you.
They were all multiple choice.
Yeah.
One of which was,
I don't like this at all.
Harry Settle is a fan of which NFL team?
Did it say the Bills?
Yep.
Yeah, I'm not surprised.
And the Patriots were one of the options.
Really? That's hilarious. And the answer was Bills? Yeah. Yeah, I'm on surprise. And the Patriots were one of the options. Really?
That's hilarious. And the answer was Bills? Yeah. And it said the answer. It's because
my old manager put like my, he had it in my bio that I was a Bills fan. And I was, I just
never said anything and I didn't really feel like fixing it. And also it was like I did
wear a Bills sweatshirt for three years straight. So I understand. Yeah, there's a lot of evidence to point to that fact. You were false flagging.
I was false flagging, but when you're a young impressionable boy and you're hanging out with the team,
you're gonna root for the team. Hey, no judgment. Hey, today I would have probably, you know,
Shane would have said, you want to come to Dave and Buster's with the team? I would have said, not today.
Why? In same division?
Yeah, back when he was a Bills fan they weren't in the division yet.
No, I'm saying I've matured.
I'm not a young impressionable boy anymore.
So you hate the Bills now?
No, I love the Bills.
I'll always love the Bills.
I was the pack.
That's what it was.
And who was he?
The Bills? Package? Not an even matchup at all. What are we talking about? There we go. Josh Jacobs was moving in slow motion
I watched you. I read on ESPN yesterday
They had they put out a top 10 running backs and they have Josh Jacobs at six again. Yeah, that's your guy
No, he's not
Now Josh Jacobs is the man what
He's just they they did him, they did him dirty in Madden.
But you were winning the whole game.
Yeah, but I wasn't going forward on fourth.
Like this is going to be, this is tactical.
I'm not giving you anything.
When we played Call of Duty, you beat me 30 to one.
Yeah.
And the one was dubious.
You guys played?
Yeah, we played in New Orleans.
Yeah, it's been 17 years since I played it.
But you have a general, like your brain is wired to be able to figure out.
I know the controls, I think.
I'm not going to have to have Harry tell me what buttons mean what.
But he's been training.
How do you play?
What are your controls?
Like, how do you aim?
Fuck, man. Honestly, I don't even know how to answer that
question. It's all innate.
Should you guys play like a warm up a little?
Yeah, I could use I could use a little warm up maybe, but I
don't want him to get the sense of my rhythms.
You don't have to play erratic.
I don't know. Are we doing are we doing like, like bursts?
Like, what are we doing? Like shotgun snipers?
I get to determine what we use for guns.
Or like a rotating gun.
Like Fiesta?
There is a specific type of gun layout that I want
and we will use.
So it's just gonna be the burst rifle
and the automatic sub?
No.
You don't know.
I don't know.
You don't know what it is.
This morning I took the train from Poughkeepsie
to Penn Station.
Beautiful.
It's legitimately one of the most beautiful train rides
in New York City.
Starting in Poughkeepsie.
I think I've said this, but your feet
from the Hudson River, the entire ride.
Which side, did you say it on Riverside?
Well, I got on the train and it was packed
and I walked to the cafe car.
And you know, in the cafe car on Amtrak,
a lot of the time, two of the booths
will be reserved for crew members.
They put their papers and their walkie talkie
in their kind of cap down or something,
but they don't actually sit there.
So I don't really know why they camp out. do that. They camp out. And I was standing because every other seat was taken and all
this. So I was just standing in the cafe car waiting for a crew member, a ticket puncher
to come through so that I could ask, Hey, is there any room that I could join you guys?
I've always wanted to work for trains. Just let me kind of have this.
Take your son to work day type of thing.
And a guy came through and I said,
hi, is there any room left at one of these booths?
And he goes, bar stool, tires, loved you on tires.
He goes, come with me.
And he brought me into the business class hall
and just gave me a business class seat
and said, you're good here.
And it was probably my favorite thing
that's ever happened to me
as a result of what little recognizable I have.
What kind of perks do they have there up front?
The seats were red leather.
Tom Hanks comes through and serves hot chocolate.
Yes.
Very good.
That was very good.
Very funny.
Very funny.
Did you read that book growing up?
The Polar Express?
Yeah.
Yeah, and I watched the movie.
I had it on tape, and I would have the book open.
The book's great.
The movie's insane.
It was narrated by Bill Hurt.
Do you remember that actor?
I do not, no.
He's great.
And his voice was magical.
My dream is to write a children's book that gets syndicated to that level.
Yeah, billions.
Making billions off of a children's book that probably took 12 minutes to write.
I know.
A mainstay.
Billions.
Yeah.
Whoever wrote that book.
That's such a dream.
I mean, that's like you have J.K. Rowling money.
It's that one.
You're living in a castle on a mountain.
But here's what I always wondered.
I always wondered what are those books for everyone else? Right?
I bet the Berenstain Bear family, I bet that those that
couple is living in a fucking castle.
Absolutely. Yeah, I would say Polar Express. I mean, I don't
know what it's like.
Goodnight Moon.
Goodnight Moon is that that person has an island.
Yeah. Yeah. What about the Hungry Caterpillar? Yes. And that
I think is the most successful one of all time. Really? They have clothing lines. Yeah. They about the Hungry Caterpillar? Yes, and that I think is the most successful one of all time.
Really?
They have clothing lines. They syndicate. They probably have a store next to like, downtown Disney.
They definitely have like a shop, yeah.
They probably have a fucking like, high-rise in Monaco.
Man, Ferdinand the Bull? Did you guys read that one?
Yeah.
He was the peaceful bull.
Have you ever tried to get into it?
I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean. Have you ever tried to just like bang out at children's book in like 10 minutes? No
I have no I don't know if it's hard, but I mean I got one
I have one in the fuck fucking holster right now. Why don't you put it out? I
Should you just gotta go buy like another name and fucking get a publicist. Why would he do that? He already has a name
and fucking get a publicist. Why would he do that?
He already has a name.
Yeah, but they're not gonna be, no one's gonna be like,
we want Adam Ferrone, rap battler and comedy podcaster
to read books to our kids.
The very friendly rap battler.
The very friendly rap battler.
Oh wow, that could be a whole new story.
See, this is what I'm talking about.
That's a billion dollars right there.
That's the next hungry caterpillar. Yeah, this is what I'm talking about. That's a billion dollars right there. That's the next hungry caterpillar.
Yeah, the friendly rat baddler.
No.
That's so good.
Is it gonna be like an anthropomorphic character?
Is it gonna be a white child?
What if it's a rattlesnake and it's like,
Jimmy Rattler, the friendly rat baddler.
And it's like everyone thought he was out to bite them
and they were all defensive,
but the truth is he just wanted to be friends with people.
Varun, what's your big idea?
Which one?
You're the one that you got in the whole story.
Don't share it.
Yeah, I can't tell you it.
He hasn't copywritten it. I think so much of what makes the children's
books good is the talent of the illustrator.
Yeah. It has to the illustrator. Yeah.
It has to be very specific.
Yeah.
I had another idea for one this morning
and I'm fucking can't wait to put pen to paper.
I can't wait to set aside a fucking Uber ride or something
and write the whole thing.
Yeah.
I can't wait to be on one single train ride
and come up with the whole thing at once.
There was one I read recently
that almost brought me to tears.
It was called- There's one very manipulative one. Is it was one I read recently that almost brought me to tears. It was called-
There is one very manipulative one.
Is it the one I'm thinking of about a kid growing up into-
what was yours?
The one I'm thinking of is called the fox, the horse,
the mole, and the something.
And it's filled with lessons.
You're thinking of Animal Farm.
Right. Which is an allegory for the Russian Revolution.
Yeah, you're thinking of the Russian Revolution.
Charlotte's Web.
That's a classic.
Those fucking pigs.
Oh, The Giving Tree is a big one.
That's a big children's book.
Yeah, Harold and the Purple Crown.
James and the Giant Peach.
I don't think we go, no, I think Roald Dahl,
those are sort of novels that are scary.
Those are hard to write, or I mean those would take a bunch of time.
Children's books, you could be like A is for Apple, best seller.
B is for Bananas.
Noble Prize.
I had a set of sheets, actually I think it was a duvet cover that had the alphabet with different animals that were represented by each
or things that were represented by each one.
They did that in here. They wrote the shark that had feelings
or something. Yeah, I bet even that made good money. Probably.
Yeah. Book is trash. Yeah, not a good read. Terrible read. It
drags. Just just fucking ends.
It's like, where's the tone?
Where's the perspective of the main character?
I'm sorry, where's the story?
I read that to a little boy, and that kid got
eaten by his fucking shark.
Yeah, he didn't take home any of the lessons.
He took the lesson home, which is that sharks are friendly.
And then he went up to one, and now he's gone.
So many shark attacks recently.
I cannot believe this woman put out that fucking documentary
He said the shark attacks aren't real. Oh, I still haven't watched that shark
Been too busy practicing I started the I think I told you this I started the Oklahoma City bombing doc
Oh, yeah, it's good. Did I say that did I already tell you guys that I believe you did okay? You mentioned it in passing
I'm sorry. I'm repeating myself. It's the lime disease. It's a fucking lime I'm having a hard time. I could go for some key lime though. Oh
Talk dirty to me. Steve's key lime pie. I know you know all about that place in Red Hook
Where you're right by where your boy's bachelor party was
Who was that? Didn't you have your friend's bachelor party at Brooklyn Crab?
And you guys shot a shark sketch and you stopped and got the key lime pie. Yeah that place was awesome.
Great key lime pie.
Didn't you go to Brooklyn Crab?
I think I did but that was for a birthday that I had.
Birthday for your birthday.
Years and years ago.
I thought it was a bachelor party.
I don't think we had a bachelor party at Brooklyn Crab.
It was your birthday.
It was my birthday.
That must have been so nice. Yeah that was cool. I haven't been down to Red Hook in a while. I really want to get back to Red Hook Tavern for that burger.
You got to.
But I don't really spend much time
in New York City right now.
You're more of an upstate man.
I'm an upstate man.
Upstate man.
So nice once you get out of the city.
So nice.
I get all my groceries from a farm stand.
That's serious.
And then I go to a meat and poultry farm like hut.
Damn.
Is where I get all my meat and poultry.
It's all frozen, which kind of bums me out.
I like it when it's fresh.
I was picturing the cow seeing you coming
and being like, oh no.
Yeah.
You're like, I want that one.
That's pretty sick.
But the vegetables from his farm stand are beyond belief.
I can't even begin to tell you.
It's squash season right now
I hate squash well, that's because you haven't had to prepare the right way. I can despise. Oh good
despises squash blossoms
Squash zucchini mushrooms my three don't touch. Well three don't touch don't even be in the same building as
Really you can just like chop up zucchini and put like a little bit of garlic on it
And it doesn't even taste like food.
It tastes like french fries.
Zucchini is nasty. The texture of zucchini.
I get what you mean.
So gross.
Like too thinly sliced and it's like a floppy pickle or what texture?
I have such vivid memories of sitting outside eating dinner, everyone's done and I'm just staring at my zucchini.
We all can't go inside until you have your- My mom's like, you're eating the zucchini?
There's like 20 pieces of zucchini?
Zucchini doesn't do much for me,
and really there's not that,
I haven't had a preparation of it
where I thought, oh, this solves it.
It's awful.
It's really tasteless.
It's like a starch.
Yeah. Don't they make fries at a zucchini?
Don't they just deep-fry it? They couldn't nasty. I do really quite like asparagus. I've been oh, yeah
crushing asparagus asparagus, right? I've been crushing broccoli personally I
Think
Yeah, it's not great my my urine is
Quite off-putting. What what what is it? It just smells bad. Yeah, it's not great. My urine is quite off-putting.
What is it? It just smells bad?
Yeah, it smells like, you know, sort of like the bedpan of a terminally ill person.
You know, they used to think that 90% of people got the piss smell from the asparagus and 10% didn't,
but then it turned out that 10% of people
just can't smell it.
They're not able to smell it,
and 100% of people get piss, asparagus piss smell.
Really interesting.
Is that true?
Yep, a fascinating tidbit.
Most fascinating tidbit of the day.
See?
I think you're sure.
I gotta figure out what I'm gonna air fry tonight
for dinner.
Throw some zucchini, dip a zucchini in a batter.
No fucking shot.
Slice it like french fries.
Have a spicy ranch dip or something.
Like a Chipotle ranch and dip it in there.
I made unbelievable potatoes last night.
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me.
I have struggled to find the right way
to make a crispy potato in the air fryer.
And one thing I learned is that a lot of it depends on the type of potato you use.
The red russet potatoes, no good.
Oh yeah, I use the golden little ones.
That's the better one.
And what you're going to want to do is you're going to want to chop those up into fourths,
all right?
Okay.
Get them nice and small.
Yep.
And then I go, whatever seasoning you prefer.
Me, it was Cajun last night.
Okay.
Are you putting oil on them or anything?
You put oil on first. That's my bad. Okay, that's okay for as a binder like Michael J
Fox, but you're not gonna want you're not gonna want you're gonna want to use like an avocado oil
Okay, something with a high burning burn point good for you high smoke point high smoke point
So I go, you know chop them up a little bit of oil
High smoke point. High smoke point.
So I go chop them up, little bit of oil.
Season, Cajun seasoning.
No, no, that was me just shaking them up,
getting them all covered.
Okay, sure.
And then comes the Cajun.
Okay.
And then I actually like to do nine minutes,
shake them around.
On what temp?
400.
Okay.
Throw them back, throw a little bit more seasoning back on.
Oh, wow.
Cause some of it falls off, you know.
Sure.
And then nine more minutes, good to go.
Crisp.
And are you shaking them up to make sure
that they kind of turn around?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Damn, you do 18 minutes at 400?
Yeah.
Can we see a pic?
I don't know if I took a picture.
Let me see.
Dude, that's awesome.
I am thrilled by this.
I am so proud of you.
I know you hate that.
Nah, I don't have any pictures.
Where's the tailgate, bro?
Oh no, I do.
Let's see these crispy potates.
What else did you have with your crispy potates?
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Wings, potates, brock?
That was night one.
The potates yesterday looked way better.
Yeah, those ones look a little underdone.
No, they weren't underdone.
They're just not that crispy.
No, they didn't have enough oil.
That didn't do enough oil on them.
Oh.
Knowing that you took a picture of it.
Why?
I like it.
Will you start sending me photos of food you've cooked that you like
and so that we can swap recipes and stuff?
I'll, dude, I'm telling you, the potatoes I had yesterday were unbelievable.
I did some-
Like they were like,
it was literally like having like Popeyes potatoes.
I did a filet of a king salmon in my air fryer last night.
Love it, love it.
I did king salmon on the cast iron last night.
Oh, nice, nice, nice, nice.
Did you finish it in the oven?
I didn't.
I just did it all on the cast iron.
I did it all on the cast iron
and I basted the fuck out of it with some butter and oil.
Are you getting big into cooking?
Not big into it, but.
I don't think I've ever heard you
baste anything in a cast iron until this moment.
But just because I don't.
Until this exact moment.
Just because I don't talk about it.
I've never heard of you cooking anything
or I didn't even know you had a cast iron.
I have multiple cast irons.
Look at that, hairball throwing shots, cooking shots.
No, I'm just curious if you're getting into cooking.
I feel like I've always had a cast iron.
Not that I'm aware of.
And my boy Mike just brought me another cast,
a bigger cast iron.
Last time I went to your place,
it was like going over to one of your friend's houses
who has no snacks
It's like all they've got is like the like the clear plastic container of like granola
Do you want any dates that was my house when I was growing up and that's why I have like four bags of chips now
Cuz I'm afraid I'm like phobic of being the house that has the most snacks.
You don't want to be that house.
Yeah, I mean that's why that was my house growing up.
Yeah.
Yeah, it sucks.
As well.
That was, you know whose house that was?
Peter's.
Oh really?
Big time.
Yeah, well he's a physical specimen.
You go over, this is for school.
These are for school, you know.
Don't drink those, don't eat this.
I think it's safe to say that the kids that grew up in those households went on to have
far better body fat percentages.
No, look at me.
100%.
My shit is fucking trash.
You're good.
You're trim.
I don't know.
I don't know what I could have done.
You don't know what your potential was?
No, I'm saying I feel like my parents threw wheat bread at me and I still turned out flabby.
So I don't know what the fuck, how to resolve that.
We didn't have any goods.
We didn't have like, the problem is any snacks
that you have at your house are gonna suck.
Is your parents are gonna buy the same snacks every time.
Have you ever seen Khloe Kardashian's pantry?
Yeah, it's all clear Tupperware. And it's. And there's so many snacks. Have you ever seen it?
No, no, just do a quick Google.
Okay, I want you to see it's there's like video of her taking you through it's like a when Jay Leno takes you through his garage
Oh, yeah, my cousins lived in Illinois growing up
Like they lived outside of Chicago and we would go to their place for Thanksgiving.
Wait, same.
Really?
Are we cousins, bro?
We would go to Chicago for Thanksgiving
and go visit them, and their pantry was like,
they had these like fruit by the foot dots
that would like, you'd open it up
and it'd be like a sleeve of them,
and you'd rip them off, and just, I would just sit. They had rareacks. I would sit in the pan. It was like going into like a smoke shop
Got like the fucking key lime pie lays. Can I smell that?
Dude her pantry is insane
It looks like one of those stores in the airport where you walk in and don't actually have to like
Swipe a credit card on the way out. It just knows what you've taken and charges you for it
But there's actually a bunch of dudes in Bangladesh
who are just watching a computer charging for it.
How interesting is that?
Oh, that is so funny.
It's amazing.
And it's not just straight healthy food.
I mean, it's like.
There's good snacks in there.
There's good stuff.
I honestly don't think there's anything wrong with that.
With what?
Having the dudes in the dudes watching.
Yeah.
Or just lying is the only thing.
It's like, yeah, well, maybe if the technology wasn't there they've made it look like it was there. No school. Yeah
Yeah, yeah
But but that makes me I mean their whole thing is like all you gotta do is scan your credit card and walk out
It makes people be less sneaky because it's like oh the machine knows
Yeah
As opposed to if there's a guy who I just have to beat in Bangladesh, who has to
like hide something from, I feel like I could do that.
Also, he doesn't give a shit. Yeah, yeah. Just walk out. The
problem is you would have no idea if he if you got it off or
not.
Until you get charged, you get charged like you could try to
steal if he's gonna see it and just mark it up.
Wow.
Those bad those bastards, those Bangladeshi bastards.
Yeah.
But how would, I mean, yeah, they could also just
add stuff on if they're just charging you randomly
for stuff that they see.
True, true.
Yeah, how nice is that pantry?
I'm into it.
Someday I'd like to have that.
It also makes me realize how disorganized my pantry was
and I thought it was pretty organized.
I've been doing a lot of purging.
Throwing out?
Yep.
I have been.
You know, you gotta be lean.
Yeah, especially this time of year.
This time of year.
If I have excess weight, I am hot.
I get hot.
So I'm trying to keep it as lean as possible.
That's probably why you had that itch in your throat
because you have reflux from turning your stomach
inside out by purging.
Burns a hole in my esophagus.
Yeah.
That nasty purge.
Nasty, nasty.
All right.
Love Halo time.
Wow, that was a fun episode.
I really enjoyed that.
I had a lot of laughs.
That was great.
Good stuff.
One of our betters.
Halo time now though.
Halo time. Are you nervous? Yeah, that's why we couldn lot of laughs. That was great. Good stuff. One of our betters. Halo time now though. Halo time.
Are you nervous?
Yeah, that's why we couldn't do halo first because.
I refuse.
So everybody would be in bad moods.
Which means you are considering the fact
that you might lose.
No, I'm just thinking like for,
like it was more of a safety precaution.
Like, cause when we did Madden
and then we had to record after I was like,
I was like, this is the last thing on earth I want to do.
You were that mad.
Yeah, obviously.
I remember, I remember.
I honestly feel bad because it didn't matter that much.
And then we had to go and just not talk about it.
Yeah, I'm just saying like, it really,
it wouldn't have mattered to me that much either way.
But given that it was such a big part of your identity,
for you to lose, I see why you were so upset.
Well, Madden's not part of my identity at all.
And yet you're saying you were incredibly upset.
This will be a shot. This will be a gut shot if I lost. I'm not gonna lose.
What if it's close?
I would say this would be a gut shot if I win within 10.
So 10 is the handicap?
No, there's no handicap.
No, but I'm just saying I win.
For your mood. If you don't win by by 10 or more, you'll
be upset. Yeah, but I also haven't seen you play. So I don't know if there's a chance
that you know you are the king of the game like three times. I've logged on to halo three
less than five times buster back trap. Oh, backtrack over here. But I didn't play for
a while yesterday. Yeah, you sure did playing claw claw too, because I knew you guys, I knew I wasn't going to be able to use my paddles.

I was only falling one way
I was only falling one way
Fetish to your eye
Did you realize
No one can take me alive
I was only falling one way See it just a distant light
Being fast forever bright
Call it just a memory
Take my hand and you can see I'm Oh
Man is true Banished to your heart Did you realize
No one could take me alive
