Starting point is 00:00:00 What happens when three buffoons give life advice, explore unrealistic situations, and give random topics more thought than they probably deserve? It's the Spitballers Podcast with Andy, Mike and Jason. Blibbidi blabbidi blibbidi blibbibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudibluugudiblu Yeah, no, no, that is, that was a live audio. Welcome into the Spitballers podcast, episode 239. Al Borland in the building. What's up, Spitwads? Sitting next to Judge Giamatti himself. Heyo!
Starting point is 00:00:54 And Andy, Mike, and Jason, back with you. Another illuminating episode is in store. Of course, when did we switch that the judge was sitting in on all the shows? He doesn't sit in all of them. It's just that Al needs a lot of oversight. Yeah, it's just sometimes it's redundancy. It's important that the show,
Starting point is 00:01:15 otherwise, do you know how many episodes we've recorded that haven't gotten to you? Yes. 50. It's been a lot. Al, how do you feel about us having so many shows together and then we were like, yeah, you need someone back there with you to help. Is that a? I appreciate Brooks and everything he does. Now, I do feel like-
Starting point is 00:01:37 Boring. If Brooks is going to be sitting in here, we've got to make him scat at some point. Oh. Oh. Brooks has had one scat before. I'm here more than you realize, I think. Yeah, Brooks is always here. Brooks has done a scat? He has. He did a rig dig dig dig dig.
Starting point is 00:01:54 Something along those lines. Oh, little Andy Bernard. That is exactly the inspiration. Yeah, no. That happened? Was Mike insinuating that? Mike and I do not remember this. I remember it.
Starting point is 00:02:04 I remember it. I remember it. I think maybe Al was out. And so I was substituting. But I was Mike implicating the fact that you didn't think he was normally here? He has been a full time. Since the evolution of the Spitballers podcast, he wasn't always there.
Starting point is 00:02:22 But it's been a long time that he's been there. I know. I'm just saying that there was, I don't know, probably half of the shows? Or you've been in all that time? I think more than that. I think more than that too. When did we hire this guy?
Starting point is 00:02:36 Mike must not have a good angle at seeing us behind the monitor. Welcome in, life advice, would you rather any perfect pasta dish draft coming your way? And here we go. Would you rather, would you rather question from Jeff, would you rather be stuck outside for 12 days straight, never going inside a home or a building,
Starting point is 00:03:10 or stuck inside of your home for 120 days straight, not even allowed in your backyard? What month is it? That's a great question. I mean, we gotta have a little bit more detail. It is a temperate climate. Oh, okay It gets a little chilly. It gets a little chilly at night. It gets a little hot in the afternoon like September Well, that's timber is a hundred degrees nightmare out. No, I'm gonna say March late March
Starting point is 00:03:35 I just told you you get a little it gets a little cold at night Mm-hmm eats a little hot in the in for three hours in the afternoon, and then it's pretty okay, okay? so 12 days straight of camping that's a lot that's wow we said the opposite at the same time I was literally saying that's not a long time and you were saying that's a long time it's a long time to camp have you camped before tent and sleeping bag have you gone camping a lot yes no I mean yes to the first question have you gone camping before the a lot part is no I have never camped really never a once in a in a tent nope I think everybody should do a
Starting point is 00:04:14 once oh absolutely when I was growing up we did it quite often I mean that was like one of our go-to can you call that a vacation? I don't know. Getaway? Excursion? Excursion. We would go camping all the time, but never more than like three days. 12 is a lot for camping. If you went to four days, it's like, okay.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Three days was right. I can't imagine going to 12. And you said you can't go inside a home or building, but I could go like shower in the pool or whatever Like sure rinse off in the pool. Yeah, I mean I'm am I well in the backyard am I on the property? How we need some rules here? Yeah, my in a like is it like my existing home? And I just have to close the door and then I'm outside It could be anywhere you want you could you could anywhere. Yeah, I need to make sense
Starting point is 00:05:02 We're we're that's the beauty of being outside. We can just go anywhere. Am I packing for this? No. So I've got to go find some food every day. Yeah. Do I got a wallet for 12 days? Yeah, you can buy food. OK, so I can just.
Starting point is 00:05:15 But you've got to eat it outside, obviously. So I'm, for all intents and purposes, I'm a homeless person for 12 days. But you can't walk through the drive-thru. They won't serve you. They will not allow that. You're going to have to literally give a stranger your card and say will you go buy this for me. Farmer's Market. I'm going outside to one of those.
Starting point is 00:05:32 That'll work. So back to the drive-thru. Is this a safety thing that they have declared that? Yeah, because it's for cars. That's why. Yeah, but they won't let you on a bicycle. I've run into a couple folks that seem like they'd be willing to give me a burger. I'm sure I could make it through a drive-through on Pete. You can't. If I told them my situation... You think they're that rule-focused? I think so. I think they're going to lay down the law and say, sir, this is for vehicles only. What if I give you an extra 20? That's what I'm going to say, and they'll be like, sure.
Starting point is 00:06:04 Yeah. I've never gone that route because... What if you say you identify as a car? Oh you just beep beep beep beep beep. I am a car. Just make car sounds. Yeah, sir I am in my car. We have a camera. You're gonna have to speak up. My engine's really loud. I'll take a whopper. If you serve foot traffic according to Brooks who's often here during the show. There's safety and insurance risks serving foot traffic. So insurance makes sense. If you start, cause if, if they serve you, they're saying it's okay to do what you're doing, which would be a liability if you get hurt doing it. Now I think this is really just an anti-homeless people rule that they're coming up with.
Starting point is 00:06:50 This is really rude of fast food establishments to say you have to have a car. No, the only time I've run into something. They can go in the building. They're not under this. Oh, that's right. Not Taco Bell at 2 a.m., my man. Yeah, they locked down that lot The lobby is shut down. Also the homeless people are discriminated against between 12 and 2 a.m
Starting point is 00:07:10 I'm just talking about me trying to trying to roll up the Taco Bell when I'm I mean is this question kind of like It's basically like you're homeless But you just can't ever go into any other building building lists Because you could be in your backyard. I 120 days straight stuck inside. Look I know from the COVID days the quarantine was what 30 days or something. It was not good. 120 days is a long time. There was actually a movie, I don't remember if it was called The Pink Cloud. Any of you guys see this movie?
Starting point is 00:07:46 Nope. I think I know what you're talking about. So it came out a few years ago, and ironically it was made before the pandemic, or anybody even knew about the pandemic, but it almost tied right into it, where this pink cloud comes and settles through a city, and what ends up happening is,
Starting point is 00:08:01 if you can't go outside, nobody can go outside ever again. And so they set up this system where they're like, you're stuck inside and they can deliver stuff to almost like a drive-through window at your house that's an airlock so that food gets delivered, but everybody lives inside forever. Wow.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Didn't seem great. It didn't seem like a good time. How was the movie? The movie was all right. Do you remember, just first, a yes or no, do you remember the first restaurant that you went to after, you know, when it was like the quarantine, you hadn't gone out,
Starting point is 00:08:34 you hadn't done anything, do you remember like, I'm at a restaurant? Because I remember, I remember, I was like, oh my gosh, I'm out in public at a place again no just me I don't know I remember door dashing a burrito from Chipotle during quarantine and as I ate my burrito I'm like I'm going to get COVID from the burrito because yeah because I couldn't not get Chipotle you You thought you had made the sacrifice? Yeah, I thought there was a percentage chance that my family was gonna get it because I Needed Chipotle you had made
Starting point is 00:09:14 Choice yeah, I think you got to take the time here. This is a 12 days. It's taking 12 days It's 12 days. It's gonna suck. You're gonna have to. It might be refreshing. I think it will be more revealing than refreshing. I don't think I'll be refreshed at the end of this. I think I'll be like, let me in. Yeah, that's what I'm going with. But I will certainly have a higher respect for the homeless. No teasing this out, but quick question. If it was 12 days outside or 30 days inside Oh, I'm inside inside. I could take 30 days. Yeah, send me in from the website. Would you rather have the ability to shape shift? Or have telekinesis
Starting point is 00:09:57 That's mine bullets That's what that's what telekinesis. Yeah telekinesis is move stuff with your mind. Yeah. Oh That's what telekinesis is? Yeah, telekinesis is move stuff with your mind. Yeah. Oh. Telepathically, you can also move bullets, is what you're saying. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:10:08 It's not just mind bullets. It's not just mind bullets, but that's like, according to D. He's shutting out the D's. Oh, thank you. The people knew. Shape shift or have telekinesis? Shape shift is, is there any limits to that?
Starting point is 00:10:23 I could become a chair. I mean, I could become a chair? I mean you know I become a bowling ball? I think you... Can I become other people only? Usually it would be other people. Shape shifters go from people to people but I will argue in favor of the fact that if you can control your body to change shapes and size and colors you should be able to change it to look like a cactus. I just want to know the limits on either of these like telekinesis am I moving anything anywhere ever? I think so. No. Yeah. No. I do not think so. I think that is ridiculous and I would never agree to that.
Starting point is 00:11:01 I'm saying that there's a it's like a muscle number one, you're gonna have to work it out. Oh, you get sore? There will be, oh yeah. You get headaches? Just migraines, like you wouldn't believe. You can't move the moon. But yeah, there has to be a limit on weight that you can actually move.
Starting point is 00:11:15 I'm trying to do it right now. Because if you could move anything with your mind. I'm trying to move one of those lights above your head, Mike, to fall on you. Well, just keep trying. It's not doing nothing. Any moment now. Nope. Nope. I mean who among us hasn't tried to move something with your mind at some point. I have 100% I have. Yeah. I remember being a young man
Starting point is 00:11:39 and really giving it my all. Just I had one day. Was one after a Star Wars episode or I I don't think so but something sparked the the curiosity and the Creativity and what is giving it your all? Giving it my all giving it my all was probably spending an hour But what were you tensing up your body? Were you just thinking about it real far? Were you tensing up your body? Were you just thinking about it real hard? Staring?
Starting point is 00:12:04 Is it staring? All of the above. Trying to figure out, look, there is a special sauce here and I gotta figure out, is it belief? I have wondered that. Is it just I gotta believe? Hard enough? Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:17 Is it focus and energy? What is it? But I'm here to tell you, I don't think it's possible. That's funny you said the belief thing because there's been part of me going like if I could convince myself But I could move that I would Yeah, cuz that's all it's just that it's just that I I know deep down that I can't do it So I can't you know, no with an attitude like that. So Only I could truly believe.
Starting point is 00:12:46 I'm here to tell you it's not possible, huh? That's very funny. So there's, I mean, there's gotta be a weight limit. Let's say, for the telekinesis? Yeah, I'll put it at, can you move a person? I will put it at whatever you can move in real life. Bench or squat. Yeah, I can move a person.
Starting point is 00:13:03 I mean, I'm trying to, I honestly, you're just gonna leave you breathless Yeah, I can move a person. I mean, I'm trying to, honestly, I'm- You're just gonna leave you breathless. If I can move a person, that's- Take my breath away, the majesty. I'm gonna be like, whoa, I'm breathless. It's funny. If I can move a person with my mind, I can be very, it controls some people hard.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Now the shape shifting I can too, because they could appear like anybody they know. Oh you are a celebrity You want that reservation go to the Met Gala you want to get into the fanciest table at the fanciest restaurant? Just walk right in Mr. Clooney who hasn't wanted to live one day. Yes in Joe Biden's body. Oh, yeah, right this way Mr. President or right this way. Mr. As in Joe Biden's body. Oh yeah. Right this way Mr. President or right this way Mr. Bank Manager. Yeah. Okay hold on. Hold on. Into the vault. I'm here for the vault maintenance. We get to choose one person that we can shapeshift into and out of. Just one. Do I only get to do it once or forever? No, you get to do it forever.
Starting point is 00:14:06 You can go back and forth, but you can only pick one person on the planet. Wow. That is um... Who would it be? And Andy, why would you choose Margot Robbie? Would you just become Margot Robbie? That's not getting talked about. That's heading in a bad direction. My first thought was actually Elon Musk. Because he's part of so many different unique companies that I would get to be a part of those forever, whether it's going, you know, the Rockets or the AI or the... You're in that jello body. That part would be... See, that's...
Starting point is 00:14:41 Have you seen that thing? It's... My thought immediately... It's pasty. My thought immediately went to like well I'll go Chris. You know what I mean. Like I just want to look at yourself in a mirror by a mirror that'll do that. Not just look at yourself in the mirror but I would imagine if I wanted to go do activities if I wanted to go do a hike you want to go do like be LeBron. That's a pretty good one. Be a sport, be Mahomes?
Starting point is 00:15:06 LeBron is peak humanity. I think LeBron might be the answer. He's a little old now. You might have to pick somebody else. He's still doing okay. No, I'm just saying you said you're gonna do it for a while. But I need to target like a younger athlete. I feel like you get to say what year. I'll pick the age of LeBron. Yeah, you're like, give me... Oh, but you don't get their year. I'll pick the age of LeBron, yeah. You're like, give me. Oh, but you don't get their talent, so when you chuck up a three, you're bricking it. I already have the talents, I just needed the body.
Starting point is 00:15:31 I don't have the vertical. You've been one LeBron body short all these years. I promise you this. Probably true, that's probably true. I promise you this, if I had LeBron's body, every ounce of strength, I could be in the NBA. I wouldn't be LeBron, but I mean there's not many human beings walking the planet that have that kind of size and
Starting point is 00:15:52 ability. Mike, do you have a... I was thinking of a bigger person. I was like, do I want to be like, who's the guy that's the Mountain? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The original or the replacement? You mean the zombie? There were two guys that played the mountain. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah with the the original or the replacement You mean the zombie there were two guys that played the mountain was there on Game of Thrones? Yeah, wait when he really unimportant Oh, no, no, this is when he would became a zombie. It was a different actor No, I think they replaced the actor a few seasons through how can you change the mountain and I didn't even know
Starting point is 00:16:21 He's in a coat of arms the whole time. That's what I was asking, zombie one. I mean, that's what I'm saying, it doesn't matter. Because if you're hidden, you can change them out. Yeah, that's fair. But the original way, I just want to be really tall and really strong. My final answer is telekinesis. You guys have a final answer?
Starting point is 00:16:39 Assuming it's not the one person shape shift lock, that one's. Yeah, if I can go to anybody, I'm shape shifting. Yeah. Alright, Farah from Twitter. Would you rather have a personal assistant or a chauffeur? Man, I feel like I could make my personal assistant drive me around, you know? Loophole! No, this is against the rules for this question.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Yeah, that's fair. Have it. So the personal assistant... Like the chauffeur, you have to go a lot of places for that to pay off. Not a lot. You just, you don't have to drive. I mean the personal assistant is very valuable. Very valuable.
Starting point is 00:17:15 If I had a personal assistant. If they were good at their job. I would have been at the dentist regularly if I had a personal assistant. A lot more than that. Scheduling things is like. Grab me some tickets to the game tonight and set it up for me. Oh man. That's what you get to do.
Starting point is 00:17:30 Yeah. If you have, I have to have a personal assistant that knows that I don't have to teach how to be one. When? That's what I feel like the challenge is with like having one is they gotta know you. Yeah, oh they have to know everything about you. I have to be able to say, you know, when are my children's performances, which day,
Starting point is 00:17:48 what's their rehearsal schedule because I don't remember what's going on. If they get you the ticket on the airplane flight they better get you what you like, the aisle or the... They're doing a lot more than a chauffeur, a ton more. A chauffeur is doing one thing. When you can't make it to the kids thing you say write them a card for me. But the chauffeur's value when you need it is so extremely great. Does the chauffeur at least come with a really cool car in this situation? Yes, it's a limo.
Starting point is 00:18:15 It's a limo? Yeah. Do you want a limo or do you want like a... A black SUV probably. Okay. But like armored out. Just because... Like Mad Max armored out?
Starting point is 00:18:23 No, like President of the United States armored out just because like Mad Max armored out. No like President of the United States. Okay, you know I want to make sure that you know I'm I'm rolling deep when I when I roll up to someplace if I got a chauffeur, I want I want people to look. Let me let me ask you this if you had a chauffeur permanently. I guess I know one of these answers and then I'll extend it, but you would you go more places? Yes or no? Yes. And then would you take that,
Starting point is 00:18:50 you wanna scoot over to San Diego from here? You got a ride. I would definitely, when we go to California, I prefer to fly. I know some people don't mind that drive because it's not the end of the world, it's a five five six hour drive You leave when you want all that but I prefer flying cuz I I just don't like driving for five or six hours
Starting point is 00:19:11 Writing for five or six hours. Yeah in the back of a limo. I'm playing some games on my phone Yeah, you're getting work done. No, I'm playing some games on my phone Yeah, his work. Yeah my work candy crush What are you talking about candies aren candies aren't going to crush themselves. I used to like the show for- Level 3000. Every time you go to a sporting event, we all hate driving downtown. Yes.
Starting point is 00:19:34 You got to ride. You want to go- I think I'd do so much more, genuinely. The drive parking situation for things in busy environments, so annoying. Well, and I joke about- You have to pick me up about playing games on the drive. And they're just waiting for you. In truth, you can be very productive. You know, we drive to work and from work every single day.
Starting point is 00:19:54 That's a lot of time in our life that we could get back. Be productive. Yeah, I'm on my laptop on the drive. Would they be able to, could you use- Very important. You're taking a nap, brother. Could you use them? You are getting nothing done. Oh, I will have a seat back in that machine that car will come
Starting point is 00:20:09 stocked with a seat back for all the naps yes sir a CNAP very nice would you get to use the chauffeur for like kids drop-offs and pickups absolutely is my chauffeur and so that's my pick really follow? Follow up question. How much would we have to increase Jeremy's pay to have him just be waiting 24-7 as a chauffeur? That's a great question. That's kicked over to you, Al. And I want to clarify, this was not a misspeak 24-7 anytime that I Press my chauffeur button. Yeah, you are either waiting or you'll be there in 15 minutes into 20 minutes 35% that's it. Oh man guys. We got to talk. We got to talk after this jokes I think oh, but we got to get him a car. You know how much an armored SUV is
Starting point is 00:21:02 Why is it armored? It's awesome to get him a car. You know how much an armored SUV is? It can't be cheap. Why is it armored now? Because it's awesome. I don't think Jason realizes that the armored SUV looks just like the regular one. They design it so you can't tell there's a difference. Yeah, the pump's not riding right in a tank. Yeah, but shoot it. Yeah, I mean, I'm not disagreeing that that'd be cool. All right. Regular, super nice black SUV. Am I alone taking the chauffeur? I don't I feel like I am really torn right now. When you're a type A person like me, I am my own personal assistant. Yeah, it's it is hard to trust like we had a I already do. I
Starting point is 00:21:37 would already want to do the stuff that I'm trying to assign to them. I'll just do it. We did a vacation where we thought this was brilliant. We used a travel agent for the first time ever. Not like a travel agent company like going through Costco, but like we had a travel agent. They helped us out. They booked it. They planned it. They sent us these emails. It was really super nice. But then along the way, it's like, I, you know, if a mistake is made, which there there was by you or by the
Starting point is 00:22:07 oh I didn't buy by the travel agent travel agent and so it's like well now I I get some money back I didn't do this I don't feel like I have recourse I don't know what to do and all of a sudden as soon as something it's kind of like what you're saying Andy where you are relying on someone and if you don't think they're doing as good a job as you would have done then it's really of like what you're saying Andy where you are relying on someone and if you don't think they're doing as good a job as you would have done then it's really not a benefit you just it's more time that you got to go fix problems so I think I'm riding dirty in the backseat it's right very clean actually a super clean yeah I just there's a phrase Mike they would like
Starting point is 00:22:44 take care of your bills and stuff I mean yeah they'll take care of your bills and stuff. I mean yeah they'll take care of their bills. Oh yeah I know I'm not saying take it out of your pay. Personal assistance do not pay your bills. Could you float my cable this this month for me? You haven't paid electric yet? I think the chauffeur the chauffeur sounds so good. What's funny is when this question was first asked I was I I literally said the chauffeur does one thing personal assistant does a million I thought it was gonna be a home run for the personal assistant Great question tells me I need to look into chauffeur costs apparently
Starting point is 00:23:19 35 percent 35% not bad Wario from the website has a lot of gold. Well done. This is a bad guy. Would you rather wear a diaper. This question has been in our doc probably for three months straight at the we never get to it. This is never we've never gotten to it. Would you rather wear a diaper. So happy now. Would you rather wear a diaper under your clothes and have to do all your bathroom duties in said diaper or always wear a diaper on the outside of your clothes but simply as a fashion statement? Oh no. Oh man. Now are you just for clarity here. If it's under my clothes, does that mean you can't
Starting point is 00:24:06 tell? Oh, you can you you can you can tell every time you walk. You can tell every time you're swishing your you know that sound it in the area is gonna look larger. And look, you we all had babies when a baby has a full load, a boom boom, in the diaper, everybody knows. But I'm not doing- You might have a blowout. But if this situation is,
Starting point is 00:24:30 let's say I choose the diaper under my clothes, I gotta do my duty in the diaper. Your duty, yeah. I'm not doing that at my desk. Oh, you're telling me you're not going to start to spread your wings a little bit? Oh, man. Once you know you've got it?
Starting point is 00:24:43 Well, on a number one, okay, okay on a number one I might get a little free and be like I can just do that right here. But what happens the next time you go into the bathroom for a number two and it's just kind of all nice and you know it just works out. No it doesn't it couldn't work out I'm a grown man that's gonna be a problem every time. But my point is I would go to the bathroom, either a private bathroom or go into a stall. I would do it in my diaper, but then I would take the diaper off, clean myself. You'd change yourself?
Starting point is 00:25:14 There's no way we could pick doing it in the diaper. There's just no way. The other one knows you're wearing a diaper outside your clothes all the time. You look ridiculous. And how do you justify that? How do you meet new people? How do you go to a social event? It's just my thing. Oh man, you go to a social event and say, who's the dude wearing a diaper outside of his pants?
Starting point is 00:25:39 Because it's clearly over, it's not like whatever I've got underneath it is hidden I'm even if I'm in shorts the diapers clearly over my pants. They know what they could see it. They go what? It's also over your swimsuit when you're swimming. Oh Man a swimsuit in water. I don't know or a diaper in water. Oh, I've been down that road those I mean not myself Tell us more but the kids when they were little. Can we at least use the blue jeans ones? Oh the blue jeans colored diapers? Yeah they sort of
Starting point is 00:26:14 look like jeans. No. I mean you can tell it's a diaper. I mean do you lean in and you just wear all baby stuff? Does that make you less weird? No. No it does not. But I'm still putting them on the outside of my pants so that I can go to the bathroom in a toilet. I can't clean my body after a diaper bag with you. Yeah, you would legitimately need that.
Starting point is 00:26:40 You'd have to have a chain. And if you go go a couple times in that bag, they're like, oh, he's used three diapers today. I had, we all had three children. So we have all. Still have them. We, we have changed hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of diapers and. Yes. Every now and then, it's no problem.
Starting point is 00:27:00 Yeah. Most of the time, there's a problem there. 100% of the time, there would be a problem with me. I mean, there would never be a time where the smooshed things that came out the back of me would not be a problem. So I will. You got to get rid of the diaper. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:22 Where do you put it? If you're, because see all of us. Where do you put it're a casino garbage can just throw it in the garbage can. We all like when you change kids diapers you are mostly at home and you've got a diaper caddy or whatever. You're out in public. You've got to get rid of it. You're not flushing the diaper. I'm putting it in the tiles of the roof in the bathroom. Those are baby diapers. It's not a man's man-sized Fold it up a man-sized. I might as well be a football
Starting point is 00:27:53 Size not happening. Give me that we're wearing them on the outside Spitballers to the rescue so Al we got some life advice questions here. Are these some pretty important ones? I mean, I haven't looked at them yet. They're very important to the people asking them. Okay, and it's time to help. Jesse from Patreon. I have a friend who constantly wants to go to karaoke bars.
Starting point is 00:28:19 He loves them. I don't sing, but he always wants me to come along with him. The problem is he's a terrible singer. Oh no. Not just mediocre but painfully bad. As he is up on stage having the time of his life, I can feel the crowd just cringing with awkwardness. Not only do I feel bad for him, but I feel like I become guilty by association
Starting point is 00:28:39 and I just want to run away. I guess because he would come back and sit next to you. What do I do? I can only come up with excuses not to go so many times This is Jesse's problem. Yeah, look your your friend has found something that brings them great joy and They're not good at it. Apparently apparently they're very bad at it. However Karaoke is not my thing, but every time I've been around karaoke, 95% of the people who go up there are terrible.
Starting point is 00:29:13 And this is just a part of the karaoke experience, is letting people who wish they could sing go up there and pretend to be a superstar for a little bit. So it's not just one person who's bad. I have not karaoke'd many times in my life because I hate karaoke. It's the worst. But the few times that I've gone there's always a handful of people that this per all this person does is karaoke because they are a group they're a good singer not necessarily great but they're good and they love to karaoke and be seen and
Starting point is 00:29:43 show off their skills and great for you I can't stay in karaoke. So my advice to Jesse would be age out of it Once you you know, you you can't you can't you can come up with it. Absolutely. I aged out of karaoke I aged out and you can too Jesse at whatever age you are you say yeah, I'm too old for this It's too old for that now I used to be my thing but I don't like it anymore. Cause then you're talking about, you can't keep coming up with excuses. Don't make more excuses is done.
Starting point is 00:30:10 It's finality. But hold on, she's not performing. No, she's just going to support a friend. Can I age out of anything I want? You cannot do? Yes. Like anything I no longer want to be a part of, I just say, oh, I would.
Starting point is 00:30:21 Give me an example of something that you think you'd, home chores I don't know about that but we could try it honey I think I've aged out of sweeping right that's a young man's game give me another give me another example though of something that's in the karaoke realm like that people do frequently I mean you're like can bar like bar hopping. You age out of bar hopping and what about like family 22? Can I age out of a family reunion? I got a birthday's. Oh man, I, I need to age out of birthday parties. You're working on it. Yeah. But it's like, it's just activities. It's social activities. You know,
Starting point is 00:31:07 like a wedding. Can I age out of going to a wedding? No, I'm starting to see problems. I idea here. But the more common thing, like you solved so many of our problems, like bar hopping, like in your 90s, you're safe, like a young person's game. Sure. And so I guess he's not even doing the karaoke see to me The problem is not just with Jesse It's also with the friend that wants to go to the karaoke bars because they're so oblivious to the fact that makes Jesse miserable Don't ask Jesse to go to the karaoke bar if she's miserable. What if? it's me see decides to show the friend what it feels like and
Starting point is 00:31:44 Jesse gets up there. Oh, over the top? And is horrific and just awful. You've just signed yourself up for a duet every single time you go karaoke. Because obviously the other person doesn't know you're bad. If someone is painfully bad, they know. They know that they're not a good singer.
Starting point is 00:32:04 I don't think so. Not from years of American Idol. The American... it's not real stuff. So much of the time. I just think there are some people that are so tone deaf they don't know. To them they sound good. Eh, I guess. I feel like if you're that bad you know. Also, find something else to do, man. We have hundreds of thousands of people listening to this, and I would just encourage everyone,
Starting point is 00:32:28 please age out of karaoke. All of you listening, please stop with karaoke. I would tell you, there is not much, so I don't go out very much, old man. Aged out. Yeah, I've aged out of going out, really. And the few times, like if you just, okay, hey, well, okay, I'll meet you at this bar grill or whatever, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:32:50 And you go and then out of nowhere karaoke starts. It is terrible because it is, they make it the loudest thing in the entire world. So, and you're like, well, what do I do now? Do I just? Is the night done? Do we find a new place to go? So when the karaoke sneaks up on you, it is a terrible event. And only one person likes karaoke at a time. You know, nobody likes listening to that random person who showed up to sing, other than that random person who's singing. Yeah, and maybe they're one or two friends. Jason, we just talked about symphonies.
Starting point is 00:33:27 You said they put you to sleep. Would you rather go to a symphony for three hours or do karaoke for 30 minutes? Would you rather get a great nap in? Yeah. Look at what you're asking Jason. I would love to go to that symphony. You can get a great nap or even better.
Starting point is 00:33:39 You have to sit first row. With the nap. Great, I would. You're not worried about that. I genuinely think I would love a symphony. Not napping. I think I would actually just really like a symphony. Would you fall asleep in the first. I've aged into symphonies. How old are you? I'd like to go to the symphony. Oh you're very old. Okay. You've had many a birthday. Would you fall asleep in the front row of a musical?
Starting point is 00:34:08 No, no, any live performance, if I'm in the front row. Like a symphony? Yeah, I wouldn't fall asleep in the front row either. Anytime that there's, that's just so rude. How many rows back do you have to be to where you'd be willing to do it? 20. Oh, okay, so in a shadow So in a shadow way back. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:27 Yeah. Hugh from Patreon. My coworker keeps microwaving. Oh, no. For lunch and stinking up the whole office. How can I tell them that everyone in the office hates their guts because of it? They seem oblivious. That's HR. Your office better have an HR and they need HR needs to handle this. This is not allowed. Hugh, I would imagine they're listening right now and I'm glad you didn't name them by name. But if you are someone who has microwaved, publicly microwaved fish, you need to understand that you have caused a problem and maybe it's one of those you can't smell it because you're too close, you adjust.
Starting point is 00:35:12 There is a place here that I love to frequent. Nice establishment and they've got fish on the menu and I want to get fish every time. I won't order fish from this place because all the tables are close together because I don't want to ruin someone else's. Whoa, I would never not order fish at a restaurant. Because I don't want to ruin someone else's meal because fish. What type of restaurant is it? It's like a bar restaurant.
Starting point is 00:35:37 I'm saying what kind of cuisine. So is it expected that people are ordering fish? No, it's not expected they've got pizzas and you know sliders and what type of fish is it that you're ordering that's so stinky they've got a sea bass I've never ordered it but they've got a couple different fish on the menu but I just feel like that's I if I'm eating my wild if I'm eating my sliders uh-huh right I'm having a good time and the person right next to me
Starting point is 00:36:07 orders fish I I'm not gonna be mad at them. I have grace, but I'm not gonna be happy. I'm gonna be like I don't want to the restaurant giving you permission to stink up the joint if they put fish on the menu I'm putting a sticky note that says no fish allowed right on the microwave. Oh yeah. And I'm gonna do it as many times as it takes. I might add the words company policy to the sticky note at some point. Signed the boss. I mean that is it's just egregious inside of a small business. It really, it's like bringing fish on an airplane. It's like dropping a stink bomb into the whole office.
Starting point is 00:36:50 But while they're eating. While people are eating. It's lunchtime and it's like, you know what I want to do? I want to ruin this for everyone. Do you remember years ago, we used to work together at a game company. I do remember that. And one time somebody had breakfast fish. Breakfast fish? Somebody came in and it might've been an early lunch.
Starting point is 00:37:08 I don't know. It was in the tens, tens, something in the morning, someone cooked up a breakfast fish, egg plate or something. And I remember walking into that office and I thought it was over. I thought it was over. I thought it was done. I thought there was a dead body in the middle of that, of that building. Why does fish smell so bad?
Starting point is 00:37:33 Like, I like fish, I enjoy fish. But no one can sit there and be like, oh, I love the smell of fish. Has anyone ever said they're like, mm, that smells fishy? Because you have removed them completely from their environment. They're supposed to stay in the water. Would we stink in the water then?
Starting point is 00:37:50 Yes. Terribly. If you cooked us. Yeah, yeah. If you microwaved us underwater. If you put us in like some hot springs, we stink. Okay, that's true. It's the, it's the inverse. Yeah, you figured it out.
Starting point is 00:38:04 Salmon doesn't stink that much though, right? It's still, it's all stinky. It's all stinky. It's whatever. All right, we got time for one more or should we draft? Let's do one more. Do you have a preference? Should I answer the first one or the second one?
Starting point is 00:38:21 Let's go with Larson. Larson says, we recently had a new neighbor move in next door. We stopped by, introduced ourselves and gave them the obligatory. If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to stop by and ask. Very good. We literally did this moments ago to a neighbor suite down here. Um, every Saturday morning since they moved in, he has come by and asked to borrow my lawn mower.
Starting point is 00:38:46 How do I suggest that it is time for him to purchase his own lawn mower? I can't really say it broke because he will see me mowing my own lawn. Have any of you ever been in this situation before? No, and I will tell you why. You don't introduce yourself to your neighbors. Step one, don't introduce yourself. your neighbors step one don't introduce yourself
Starting point is 00:39:05 But if you do step two check this out. Hey, uh, my name is Mike. We just moved in Next door. What's your name? Oh, nice to meet you. Hope. Hope you see you around That's it. That's the end of the conversation. No, no, no, no, no I don't need to say hey if you need something come to my house No, no, no, you know what they do. You know what you just said you said hope to see you around guess who ding dong yeah oh you hope to see me around well now you get to you invited them with that phrase to come see you sure all the time and you know what's out front of my my house a camera and i will just say hey i thought he was gonna say a door no it's a camera and i say oh hey I'm uh I'm not
Starting point is 00:39:45 available right now never come back I mean so to one option as my this is your own fault entirely inhospitable and a terrible name no no no no no it is not it is not I hope being the opposite of hospital to say it's obligatory to say don't hesitate if you need something you don't have to do that you say it's obligatory to say don't hesitate if you need something. You don't have to do that. If you say it, you should mean it. Yes. I agree with that. Secondly, I hope that at some point, Mike, and don't take this the wrong way,
Starting point is 00:40:13 but I hope at some point you have a home invasion and you run to your neighbor and you knock on the door and you need help and they say I don't know who you are. That could happen. That could happen. Although I would just run. I don't know why I'm going to my neighbors. Neighbor I need you to help. Go get that home invader.
Starting point is 00:40:38 You go to the neighbor for 911 bro. This is before cell phones? This is a weird 1985 scenario you could go to his Mean clearly they tied you up. They took all your cell phones and then you escaped out the back door. This is so obvious That makes a lot more sense honestly the the the limit what's your internal limit? Let's reverse it real quick to see if we can figure this out if You needed something from a neighbor because I could see let's say here's a good example, an extension ladder. You're hanging something, okay, not everybody
Starting point is 00:41:10 owns an extension ladder. If you see your neighbor out with one you might go, hey can I borrow that for a second? How many times does your sensibilities allow you to borrow their extension ladder before you would go buy a ladder for yourself? Twice. Twice? I was gonna go. I think three is mine. The third ask, I will do it, but I would feel shame and embarrassment. You'll tell them on ask three, I'm getting one. Yep, yep, sorry, last time?
Starting point is 00:41:36 Yes. Now is there a time period in between asks that would make it a permanent arrangement? Like if you needed the extension ladder once yearly, would you continue to borrow it indefinitely? Yes, that's fine Yeah, if it's spaced out that far. I think a year between you Christmas lights Yeah, that's I think that's perfectly except. Yeah, that's that's fine extension ladders can be expensive now I do have a solution for this but I have a solution as well. I'm curious if it's the same one
Starting point is 00:42:01 Why don't you tell me I would, I'd be mowing my lawn exactly when they wanna borrow it. Oh. Every time they come over to borrow it is when I choose to mow my lawn. I will not mow it. I was just about to mow my lawn, I'm sorry. I was just about to mow it, I actually need to use it.
Starting point is 00:42:16 And it's about to break when I finish up. I feel like that's not gonna stop them from borrowing because then it's just. I will mow so slow. I will, if they're watching me, I will mow so slow. So when I read this question. That's why they call it slow mow? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:31 When I, that's not good, and I liked it. Yeah, but I got you. Yeah, I mean, it really didn't get me, and it really was bad. Let the record show, I, it was in my head and I actively passed on even saying that joke. You would have got to laugh. Yeah, from me. No, when I read this question I thought, what the heck's the problem here? Like, just let them borrow it. Here's what I would do.
Starting point is 00:42:59 I would put it behind my side fence with a tarp over it and just be like, anytime you want to just go grab it, you're welcome to use it every day of your life. But is there a wear and tear, like not a lawn mower, Arizona we have rocks out front. Is there? You're not a lawn mower. I just heard, I heard the same thing. You're not a lawn mower, Mike.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Thank goodness for clearing that up. I get what you're saying. I am not a cat. You're not a mower of the lawn. I'm ready to proceed. Yes, I do not, I'm not out there mowing is like there's wear and tear parts that often need to be replaced on a lawnmower. Correct? I think, I think I'm with Jason. I think they don't, you let it burn down placed, but it will obviously, and we need the handyman back there. They're doing, they're all, they're all breakdown. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:43:45 But like how often does something need to be fixed and is it expensive? It's not super expensive, but yeah, the more you use it, the more you're going to have to replace stuff. I mean if they were borrowing your car every week, that'd be a problem. Yeah, because that's depreciating an asset that is far more expensive. Just imagine you have twice the size of your yard. So what? You wouldn't care if you mowed twice the size of your yard. You got a yard, they got a yard. It's twice the size of your yard. I am, I am, I am fine with them. Would you let them use it, Al?
Starting point is 00:44:15 It depends. If this is an old school push mower, go for it. If I have like a really nice riding lawn mower, that would make a big difference. Yeah, they might ride it over some rocks or something. Right. Would you, would you be worried about them breaking? Is that the hesitation? Yeah, it's a lot more expensive investment that I'm loaning out. So yeah, I would be. You could get a free lawnmower out of it if they're the one that has it when they break
Starting point is 00:44:37 it. They're putting it back. That's true. They're not going to tell you. Am I the only one here that, like it I wouldn't mind at all Like there's not 1% of me that would you would mind if it was every day So there is a limit I wouldn't mind every day if they were grabbing it like I don't want to come to the door I have my lawnmower for you put in a garage code and take it out of your garage every day You'd let them do it if I trust the person but I'm putting it on the side yard
Starting point is 00:45:01 They can go think about you wear and tear and tear from the sun. Yeah, so. It's under a tarp. It's a beautiful tarp, Andy. Oh, really? But also your neighbor will borrow it a couple of times. And then your mower is just going to be gone, because you're leaving your lawnmower out front. That thing's getting snatched.
Starting point is 00:45:17 It's in the backyard. Brooks, you'd be annoyed. Oh my gosh, I'd be so annoyed with this guy. Yeah, thanks, Brooks. I would speak up and tell him, like, no. Yeah, well, Brooks is even taking aggressive. This whole time, I've just been like, no, I hate confrontation. I would confront this guy.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Wow. I mean, you have a limit, too, though. I'm with Brooks. I don't think I do. You do, because if they were asking, what happens when, let's say you do the lawnmower every week. Uh-huh. Then it's also your rakes and shovels.
Starting point is 00:45:43 Then it's also your weedwhacker and your clippers. And none of that hurts me. Oh yeah but it's you would let them do that? Yes like that like genuinely maybe I'm just far more giving than all of you monsters. Yes that is true. Here's I found the other plan. You find something of theirs that you don't have and every time they has to borrow your lawnmower like oh perfect timing because I needed the weed wacker so I'm just gonna go grab that real quick I did think you could just buy him a lawnmower for Christmas and fix the whole darn problem that's expensive well what you can do is tell them about a great sale you know to me is like oh did you just
Starting point is 00:46:19 leave every time there's a so you're just leaving flyers all over you'd sell them your lawnmower just just text them anytime you meant you'd sell them your lawnmower. No, just text them any time you see a good sale on a lawnmower, hey, just want to let you know that I found this great deal. And eventually... Paunch the coupon? Yes. And eventually they will get the idea.
Starting point is 00:46:35 That's pretty good. That's pretty good. All right, time to draft. The Spitballers Draft. Well today we are drafting the perfect pasta dish. And the way we're going to do it is you are, this is always fun when we do drafts like this, we're drafting one pasta, one sauce, one protein, and then one side to sit next to your dish.
Starting point is 00:47:04 So a perfect little Italian meal and... Oh, Jason is there. There's some gamesmanship here because what do you go with with your first pick? Do you grab a premium protein? Do you grab the side that will be the envy of everyone? Do you go with the preferred pasta? It's a tough one. The sauce.
Starting point is 00:47:21 I mean... It is. I've put tremendous amounts of thought into this. Yes, as you always do. This is not my wheelhouse. I am not a, I'm not a big pasta person. Not a lawn mower, not a pasta person. We're learning so much about me today. To the point of I don't know. This is like I feel like I'm on the spice draft but one thing I do know that I gotta have. So we're building the perfect pasta dish and I'm going to the, I'm going right to the side. Oh no. I'm going right to the cheesy
Starting point is 00:47:56 garlic bread my man. Right there because I don't, what noodles? I don't care. That's not. I'm getting the cheesy garlic bread. That's not a bad decision. I think that... Cheesy garlic bread, Owl. Don't just write garlic bread in here. Thank you. To be fair, you did say cheesy garlic bread. Yes, I did. And he's just like, garlic bread.
Starting point is 00:48:17 I think there are a lot of pastas that I am just fine if you randomly put one in front of me. Whereas not having... Now, see, I would go regular garlic bread, not cheesy garlic bread. It's funny, I would too. Cheesy feels more American. It can be, the proportions of cheese
Starting point is 00:48:34 can be a problem on that. My friends, you are not eating the right cheesy garlic bread. Jason, you are on the clock. Mike has a side. Don't make a mistake. I've really toiled with this because one of my favorite Italian pasta dishes, it is absolutely one of my favorites. I could build it exactly how I want it. I don't think any of you would take the pasta, the sauce, or the protein. So I could just pass and I'd build the whole thing
Starting point is 00:49:07 at the end. But it's not the one I want. I want some, it's just one I like. But there's- Well, clearly if we wouldn't draft it, it's not commonplace enough. Exactly. For you to get any votes.
Starting point is 00:49:17 I'm gonna try- For your nerd pasta. Oh man. For my nerd pasta. I mean, you've got, yeah., I mean you've got some levels here that you need to avoid. All right. Mind you, for the record, for the record, we just bought Jason a pasta maker for his birthday. We did. Yes, yes you did. And also, I need to borrow it. No problem. No problem my friend. No problem. Doesn't bother me at all all right
Starting point is 00:49:47 I'm gonna go with the Protein oh okay, and I Want them meatballs? meatballs there you know that They aren't as versatile, but they're just always great you can go someplace and get bad everything else I've never had a bad meatball in my life now How do you guys prefer?
Starting point is 00:50:13 The you get the meatballs do you round no? But it's do you want like just the one or two big ones or do you want? Six to eight you know smaller ones six to eight smaller ones and Six to eight smaller ones. And not like small like SpaghettiOs and meatballs, but like normal. When I go to the spaghetti factory and I get those like. If people don't know that's a restaurant, it's the funniest thing you've ever said in your life. I mean, that is a restaurant here in Arizona,
Starting point is 00:50:43 but I wish I hadn't told you because if when Jason goes you win the draft okay. If you're visiting the actual spaghetti factory you have one. I am a big spaghetti connoisseur. When I visit the restaurant like the spaghetti factory and the and I get those meatballs that are the size of my fist. I don't like that. I don't want to use a fork and knife on my meatball. And then when you cut it, you're usually ending up with a bite that's too big. I want to take the smaller ones and cut those in half. What? No. They're all a good time. I mean, that's not... You can slice a meatball any way you want. Please don't hear what I'm not saying. Still love those fist-sized meatballs.
Starting point is 00:51:27 Just not as much as regular-sized meatballs. All right, well, I have the opportunity here with the back-to-back picks to grab a sauce and a pasta at the same time that go together. And so I feel like my opportunity here is fettuccine, pasta, and Alfredo sauce. OK.
Starting point is 00:51:48 I've got to go fettuccine and Alfredo right here, right now. Fettuccine. Mike, this is the thicker flat one? Yep. Oh, man. Mike is the one you give whenever you order. Mike has never been to the fettuccine factory. No, I've not.
Starting point is 00:52:01 I told you, I'm out of my breath here with the pastas. You've got a whole Italian world you need to Let us let us take away. I'm sorry you have to have seen a fettuccine alfredo. Yes, I've eaten it before I just didn't remember which noodle it was. Yeah, the thick flat. So I'll send it back to Jason. They're all the same I hate to bring it to you. They are Okay, there's a difference. There is a difference. Yeah. Oh is there yes there is There is do tell look shape. They'll tell you all about it I can tell you this shape can yes very different for sauces if you've got a
Starting point is 00:52:39 spiraled Noodle that will hold on to some cheese a lot better than a spaghetti. Okay that's interesting. I mean I don't want to give away too many other... That's pretty much all there is. No, there's one more. There's one more. Which is I can put the fork right through the pinne and pick it up instead of stab it. Which I love about pinne pasta. Alright, am I back?
Starting point is 00:53:04 I understand it's a different texture in your mouth. Yeah texture too. All right. I well this is great because I was worried if I went the route. You were worried? If I went the route of meatballs I need to have marinara. Like they don't I can't I can't go with alfredo and meatballs No, that would have been a we could have backed you into a bag and I was worried I would be backed into a bad corner so I'm going with marinara with the spaghetti sauce and meatballs the classic combination and I really hope that Mike screws you on protein Andy Well, I don't think my protein's gonna get stolen.
Starting point is 00:53:45 I really don't. Let's see. Oh, you're stinking up this place, aren't you? I'm not putting fish on my pasta. Okay, all right, good. All right. Unless I have to. So you've got the fettuccine Alfredo,
Starting point is 00:53:56 Jason based, has spaghetti and meatballs. Well, he doesn't have spaghetti. He has marinara and meatballs. Which means you could definitely. I could. Yank that from him. I could. Let's from him. I could Let's see, so I mean I one of my picks has to be a protein that's just the name of the game so I will take the
Starting point is 00:54:14 Let's go with the The ch I'm deciding to if I want chicken or breaded chicken I believe the protein selection that you're looking for is the word chicken. Yeah. Okay. You don't have to be more narrow. We're not all able to draft chicken. Okay. I can't get lemony chicken.
Starting point is 00:54:31 No. You get chicken. I will take the chicken. Fantastic. And you both have your sauce. Oh, I need my noodle. Then I will take, I mean it's the only one I really know is a different one. I will take the angel's the only one I really know is a different one. I will take the angel hair pasta, okay
Starting point is 00:54:47 Yeah, you know what that was my backup to spaghetti. It's the natural backup Yeah, because they both work and actually as I've grown up I I think I prefer angel hair I do too, and I hated angel hair as a kid I Don't know how you hate it. How do you hate it. This is disgusting. Give me the spaghetti. They're the same, only one smaller. No, it was like skim milk to 2%. It was like- You felt like you were eating less total pasta?
Starting point is 00:55:14 Yes. Like not bulky enough. Too stringy in my mouth. We're learning a whole, this draft is insane. The texture matters. But I will, it's back to me, I will take spaghetti spaghetti meatball marinara. I am classic American Italian food here. Um, so I have the opportunity to take a Side to close it out. I mean
Starting point is 00:55:39 clearly I Can take breadsticks, right? I Mean that's not garlic bread. Yeah, no, I'll allow it. I mean, those are different. That's fine with me. So I'll take breadsticks as my side. It is very inferior to garlic bread.
Starting point is 00:55:52 And then I'm gonna take prosciutto. I'm gonna take prosciutto as my protein. Oh, very interesting. I had no idea where you were going because to me, Alfredo was only good with chicken and shrimp and I knew you wouldn't go shrimp. Throw some prosciutto in there. On an Alfredo?
Starting point is 00:56:09 Yeah, you can do it. Really, the salty meat? It's a good time. I love the prosciutto. Oh, I love it but I'm saying clearly with Alfredo, Jason, with our sophisticated palates. Let me ask Andy a question real quick. You don't overwhelm the pasta with the prosciutto.
Starting point is 00:56:22 You dribble it in from here to here and there. Sure, let me ask a quick question. No, you will not. Have you ever had prosciutto with Alfredo sauce? Yes. Okay. Yeah, that's why I picked it. You think I'm picking, you think I'd take prosciutto
Starting point is 00:56:37 with all the other ones on the board for no reason? I picked it because it's good in this meal. I think you are a liar. I just haven't seen it. The spitwads will rise. Okay, alright prosciutto and Alfredo. Unless, unless I don't know what prosciutto is. No, what you described. It's the salty thin meat. Yeah, it's like bacon. We have a Rachel Ray recipe right here, a fettuccine Alfredo con prosciutto. Okay, there you go. Rachel Ray. I got it because I've had it. Okay
Starting point is 00:57:06 It's I'm not inventing things here. Here's the thing everything we're gonna draft here is delicious There's literally no meat or pasta or sauce When you're going three total options that aren't going to be elite What's your side here? My side. This is what I was hoping got back to me the whole time. I mean this is what you guys got me for my birthday. Your side cannot be a glass of wine.
Starting point is 00:57:30 It's a glass of wine! No, that's not a side, that is a beverage. That's the side I want. That is not a side, that is not a side. I'm very lenient in these dressings. I will not stand for your side being a beverage. Oh man. Sustained. Oh no, I had one side on my list. Now I'm
Starting point is 00:57:47 tilted. No, there isn't. There is one more elite side. Oh my gosh. There are. I can't to elite side. Oh, you're a second one. Let's message each other. Oh, okay. This is a night. This is a nightmare. You think so. I can't have a glass of red wine. Correct. You can't. You can't, but it's not in your draft. Can we notate that I have that with this. Oh my gosh. And I assume this goes for white wine then as well. I guess. Did you just ask whether why is somehow my stalling time. Look tell you what I did. Andy can make his pick He's already got a side you could come back to your side if you want You mean me? All right. Yes. I'm sorry Mike. We need to go out of order cuz he can't think of a side This is insanity. Oh man. All right, if I'm at the
Starting point is 00:58:40 If I'm family and I'm at the Olive Garden, oh my gosh, and I want a side Then I would get Can you can a soup count as a side? Of course, of course, because it's a side. It's still a liquid. You wouldn't let me have my red wine Do you drink it out of a bowl? Do you I will I will eat my red wine with a spoon a Bowl of red wine is what I would like to have as my side is that allowed a bowl with a spoon and red wine because I will draft that if I am allowed no all right then I will take Zupa Toscana yeah that's we were messaging I was like what is the soup
Starting point is 00:59:18 what's the all right that's fine good not the first time you've drafted Zupa Toscana on the spitballers. Also, red wine would have been the second draft in a row I draft. I mean, it was Caesar salad. The Caesar salad with pastas. Yeah, I thought it Italian. The Italian salad. Here's the absolute truth. I would personally not agree that a soup or a salad is a side. That is an appetizer. They usually bring those first. It's a course. You don't get, they don't bring me my pasta and my soup together ever.
Starting point is 00:59:48 What do they do with the side salad? What do you call that? If you order a side salad, that's usually completely different. It's super tiny. Is it a salad? Yeah, sure. But I mean, if I- That one's pretty good then. So then they don't bring you your, there's no wine allowed until the meal comes out. Well, my third glass comes with the meal, Mike.
Starting point is 01:00:06 So, okay, I apologize. I will amend it. Third glass of red wine. Because that's a side. In a bowl with a spoon. Also your birthday present. So you got Alfredo and marinara, and I happen to know of one more sauce. Nice.
Starting point is 01:00:24 So we're vodka sauce. Oh, Pennella vodka. Yeah, it's good sauce. No, I went angel hair. Yeah. I don't know, man, I don't know what I'm doing. You're dumping some vodka sauce all over this chicken with angel hair.
Starting point is 01:00:37 I mean, it's... Which is fine. I don't even... It all works together. This is a real Taco Bell situation. I don't even know, what's the difference between a vodka sauce and a marinara sauce. They're both reds right?
Starting point is 01:00:47 Vodka sauce is like a pinker. It's like an orangey. Oh even better. Yeah. I mean the other one is bolognese sauce would be another one. I thought that had meat in it. Or a meat sauce. I like a garlic butter sauce.
Starting point is 01:01:01 I did have butter written down. That's elite. My meal that I wanted was angel hair, butter garlic sauce and shrimp. That's... Mike could have like abandoned the sophisticated Italian and gone straight to macaroni and cheese compliment. Oh my goodness. Why didn't you go mac and cheese?
Starting point is 01:01:19 Cause I had cheesy garlic bread. I don't know. I just, I didn't go with it. That's still what he to order over this. Yeah, probably. And what is it when you mix marinara and alfredo? Disgusting? No.
Starting point is 01:01:34 I think that's just a... When I was looking it up, they were saying they just call it pink sauce, and to say pink sauce sounds disgusting. I think I've only ever seen that for dipping breadsticks. I've had pasta with it. It's it's very good Sounds it's made up. It's two delicious things. It's probably Sounds made up. Ask the factory when you get down there. I will ask the two like main sauces like well
Starting point is 01:01:56 We just mix them like no no we can't possibly. I mean ketchup and mustard you put them together. Yeah, what is that called? That's ketchup but alright but ketchup is its own product these are both sauces I don't think the math checks out do anybody associate ketchup and mustard together I think so alright fettuccine Alfredo with breadsticks and some prosciutto on top Jason needs to try it apparently. Jason has spaghetti and meatballs with marinara and a side of soup, soup of discana. And Mike has some angel hair pasta with vodka sauce with some chicken. Did he not write down soup of discana? Did he just put soup? No he did. He spelled it as best he could.
Starting point is 01:02:41 All I can see is they call it pink pasta or pink sauce. Okay. What did we learn today? It's called pink pasta or pink sauce when you mix Alfredo and marinara. I learned that for a 35% raise we could have a full-time show for 24-7. Man that's true and I learned that Mike knew a lot less about Italian food than I thought he did. I feel like we taught somebody... You did. To be happy today.
Starting point is 01:03:10 It's good. It's not my preferred. Okay. Well, you know, you've aged out. Yes, I've aged out of Italian food. Thank you so much for listening, everybody. We'll see you next time. Goodbye. Thanks for listening to the Spitballers Podcast. To see what other nonsense the guys are up Thanks everybody, we'll see you next time, goodbye.
