Look how maddie is already.
We're not even trapped down in an airplane.
Yeah, I haven't gotten worked up about anything in a while.
Yeah.
We see a woman now.
We just go like, what the fuck was that?
You know, like your bones get softer too, right?
You got a soft bone?
Soft bone chin.
Don't worry, we have a blue chewing out.
Yeah, yeah.
Tell them, Steve, Dave.
Hello, and welcome to this week's edition of Tell him Steve Dave with me, Brigh.
And Walt.
Hello.
And get him.
How you a stankin?
And Walt, when a cue can't make it.
and this is one of those weeks,
what better fill in
than the Maverick himself,
Ming Chen.
Hello, everybody.
This is Ming Chen.
I love,
so if Q can't make it
on the backup,
the pinchitter,
the other Sunday couldn't make it either.
Oh,
no,
you were our first choice.
No,
no,
I'm only teasing.
I was surprised Ming wasn't invited
to the New Jersey roast,
being the Maverick.
Oh, yeah,
the roast of New Jersey.
that Q went to? Did you get an invite? No, I did not get an invite. I heard about it. I was told
about it. It was not invited to it. How come? I don't know. I guess I just, I don't have those
chops. Oh, you got those chops. I thought you meant like to be in the audience. That's really what I thought
you meant to perform. Yeah, they didn't give me a free ticket. That's how far off I was.
Wow. What were the benefits that came along with being the Maverick? Aside from the plaque.
Was there anything? No, I got a trophy and then everyone calls me the Maverick. No, that's the benefit.
That's the benefit.
Thanks to you guys.
Yeah, you guys popularized the term.
So, yeah.
Fresh off the cruise, the VSU cruise.
Yeah, how was it?
It was fun.
It was fun.
Definitely, you guys were missed.
You guys were brought up multiple times.
You know, you think those guys would come on the next one.
You have a lot of fans there.
There's a lot of Tom Steve Zave fans.
A lot of, a lot of ant shirts, ranch, a lot of ants.
What were some of your duties while on board?
Did you have any set?
And I talked to you before you.
left. You said you didn't really have any firm scheduled events or anything. So what did you do to
pass the time or earn your- My keep? Your room and board. So I didn't have any responsibility. It was awesome. It was awesome. Didn't get, didn't really get roped in anything. And yeah, my job was to go to as many scheduled events as I could.
You're like Kim Kardashian. You just need to show up. You don't have to do anything. You just got to be there.
That was great, man. And then get free shit. Yeah. Yeah. Did you get free shit?
too. I mean, I got free cruise, a free $3,000 cruise. Yeah, that was nice. Yeah, I can't complain about that.
Yeah, they had like, they had like 13 guests there, so I didn't, yeah, they didn't need me.
They didn't need me. Still brought you anyway, though. They did. So, I guess, you had some value, man.
I guess either, uh, they wanted to make the boat look full. Like, uh, so you receive filler.
We need one more guy. It's a lifeboat filler. We need one more who's guaranteed to show up and not say no.
and do whatever.
Did you do any
karaoke?
I did karaoke, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, I did that.
And, yeah, I mingled.
But, yeah, it was very much
Kim Kardashian.
It was pretty awesome.
I get it.
I get it.
Nice.
Yeah.
It's great work if you can get it, right?
Yeah.
But, yeah, whenever I ran to tell him Dave fans,
like, how do we get Walt on the next?
Really?
You know Walt on the next one.
See, I feel that that's why I cannot go to any of these things like the Vue
cruise or Q West.
because I keep the mystique alive that way.
Like if I never show up, then there's always the clamoring.
Are you officially declining Q.S.
Right now?
But then they're like, if I come, then the mystique is shattered then.
They're like, oh, my God.
I asked for him to come countless times, and this is what he's really like when he's at an event.
Yeah, this way, like, I keep that mystery and that kind of in that vibe going of like, one day he'll show.
up and it'll be amazing.
Right.
But if I do show up, it won't be amazing.
So it's like, I have to not show up.
Right.
Yeah.
And that's the key.
That's how you get people to keep liking you by not interacting with us.
Yes.
But we were trying to think of ways to get you on there.
What would, what would get Walt Flanagan on this bone?
Let me, let me guess.
Somebody suggested drugging him like B.A.
Brock.
I was just going to say to Mr.
I was like, we don't have to fly.
These guys are driven down to Florida.
That's not really a problem.
But I was talking to our friend Savan.
He's like, I got it.
What if they came up, they let him emcee game shows on the bowl?
You could bring all your own games.
So, yeah, so then it becomes a real job.
I want the Ming Chen fucking gig where I just show up.
And not do anything.
They have to no responsibility and I can leave whatever I want.
Do like family food?
All these, get them tracian.
You can take over the boat?
Get them treation.
No, thank you.
That's like more work that I'm doing right now than it sounds like.
Yeah, I guess so.
But somebody came up with that.
I was like, he might go for it.
You got to MC.
I can't.
I just have to never show up to any event.
And that just keeps the excitement, you know, at a fever pitch.
Yeah.
Good thing.
And the anticipation.
Yeah.
That I might just do it one year.
Who knows?
When they, when we had a, what was, what were we celebrating that day?
that we went down to Kevin's
theater.
Oh, that was a curator's event?
Yeah, chariators event, that's right.
Yeah.
Ant stravaganza.
Yeah, like there was a, there's one where you showed up.
Nobody expected it.
Yeah.
Then you were in and out.
In and out, yep.
You weren't trapped on a boat for four days.
No Wi-Fi.
Oh, you get Wi-Fi in a boat.
Yeah.
Oh, you tell me you know, you never get Wi-Fi.
That's why you don't answer my messages.
I just tell you that because I don't know answering about the yarn lady and your battles about the thermostat in the hallway.
Great excuse.
I didn't want to pay $200 so the Wi-Fi package.
That's why I didn't.
That's why I was out of communication.
Yeah, well, you guys were missed, so it would have been nice to have you guys on there.
It's always nice to be missed rather than the opposite where they're like, I'm so glad they're not here.
I did not hear that once.
What else is going on with Ming Chen?
I think that's it, you know, doing cons, podcasting.
I thought you were slowing down.
You haven't slowed down at all.
I slowed down a little bit.
You did not slow down.
I don't think I'm going to be going to as many as I did last year.
I did 37 last year.
Snooch!
God damn it.
It was a lot.
And so what are you planning on this year then?
If you did 37 last year, what is your...
Maybe 20.
What are you up to now?
Two, I think.
I did two.
I count the...
The cruise, though, as an event, though, you can't see.
No, that counts.
That counts.
That definitely counts, yeah.
You did more than two in 2026.
Two.
You did more than two weekends where you were away.
Oh, sure, yeah.
Yeah.
So, so far.
Yeah.
Now, that was Albuquerque, I did the cruise.
I think that was it.
Maybe there was one more.
You were at Smok Castle the other day I saw?
Yeah, that don't count.
Okay.
Still wasn't known for the weekend.
That don't count.
So I think I've been to two or three.
I might be missing one in there.
But, yeah, it's good.
You know, that means I get to be here more with hanging out with you guys.
I mean, you're a lot.
That's why.
Well, that's why I'm fucking holding your feet to the fire because I'm like,
you said you're going to slow down and you're still not around.
Yeah.
Well, I'm here and happy to be here.
Now, uh, do you miss it?
Because you were like, you weren't going hot and heavy for years.
Yeah.
So do you miss it now, like the slowed down pace?
No, not really.
He's not slowed down, though.
Like, he's still going like a mile a minute.
How is this slowing down for him?
Well, he's only been to two or three events.
Yeah, two or three.
Two or three events as many months.
Yeah, like he was going every other week.
Yeah. Do you miss it?
No, it's nice being back here.
It's nice hanging out with you guys.
It's nice being on call as a third stringer.
Now, was this your decision solely or was there any, say, spousal input?
No, no, no, no.
No, no, I think, no, no, I think, I mean, I'm sure I wipe
likes having me home more, but
sure about that?
I'm pretty sure.
I'm pretty sure.
Yeah, but there was never,
you know, as I kept going,
there was never any pushback
that I was gone too much.
Wow.
That's an understanding wife.
Debbie Chen is something else, huh?
She is.
I couldn't get away with that.
You couldn't?
Nah.
Really?
Like being away that long?
Like I never bring her ever?
Uh, yeah.
37 weeks out of the year,
now she wouldn't like that.
Wow. Ming was in the air for 10 days in 2025.
Yeah, if you added up all the flights, all the hours.
It's a long time.
93 flights.
That changes your body, though, when you're in the air, when you're in the air that much.
Probably not good for you, yeah.
Right?
Like, it's like being in space.
Yeah, you get exposed a lot more radiation.
And you're like, your bones get softer too, right?
You got a soft bone.
Soft bone chin.
Don't worry, we have a blue chew and a, uh, coming up.
Yeah, T-E-S-D.
Yeah, what am I looking at here?
Get them brittle bones, osteoprosis.
Oh, OPL, apparently.
It affects Asians.
Really?
The same thing I had, yeah.
What's OPL?
Oh, you're ailmen.
The auspication of the posterior leg of it.
All right.
I better watch it.
Keep my neck up.
Start losing feeling in your feet and your penis.
And where's the radiation exposure come from?
Is that true?
What?
And the little get-em also went on?
In effect your penis?
Oh, yeah, I was losing, yeah.
I was dribbling.
Not a like a DefCon 4 situation.
I think so.
So if I don't feel it, it doesn't exist.
I can't see it.
I can't feel it.
But no, the radiation comes from space.
Oh, just.
Because you're that much closer and the aluminum isn't that much of a shield.
Right.
So, yeah.
Wow, okay.
That's why pilots don't get it to opt out of the scanning at the airports
because they get exposed to so much radiation while they're flying.
All right, so no, no, no x-rays.
No extra x-rays, yeah.
Right.
All right, I'll start.
I better watch it then.
That's too late for you.
Yeah, it's it.
Boles are soft now.
It's fried to a crisp.
Yeah.
Ming, talking about flying.
Yes.
It's rare that I read a headline and I get a smile and I'm like, yes.
Finally.
That rarely happens.
Yeah.
United finally implemented a ban on people listening to their devices without headphones.
Thank God.
Is there any bigger asshole on earth than a person who goes to a restaurant or in an airplane or a train or any number of public places and they don't use butts?
I think it's one of the worst things you can do in public, yes.
It's beyond annoying.
I'm not easily annoyed, but it happens every so long.
I didn't realize this was a big issue out there.
I've never been exposed to somebody who listening or watching something that was so.
loud that I was like, oh my God, what's
it this guy? It's not that it's loud.
It's just that it's there.
Yeah, it's distracting. And if you get a couple
people doing it, you know, everybody's doing
it. Like the people who sit there
and hold their phones as they're talking on it
because they're on speakerphone. Because they can't just
hold it up to the ear. They've got to do that keep doing this.
Yeah, because everybody wants to hear their fucking conversation.
Yeah, and you're trapped in a metal tin can.
Okay, but
okay, I can see it on an airplane, but like when you're out,
like, these guys aren't on airplanes. Where is this happening?
You're so annoyed.
No, I'm going on airplanes.
Well, not that man.
Not as many as Ming Chen.
No, I'm no Ming Chen.
That's for sure.
And what about him?
But I won airplanes in the last like 15 years when he went to QS?
QS.
Yeah.
So what's got one, one, one, irksome.
He doesn't like it when people do it in the office.
No, I just don't like when I'm doing, when I'm shopping.
It's, yeah.
Like you're just, yeah, like you said, like they're carrying on full conversations about people that they hate and stuff.
And it's just almost want to join in just to get them to realize, yeah, what they're exposing everyone to.
Yeah, but with all the technology out there, you could get Raycons.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I love my Raycons.
Yeah, you get $5 earbuds from the convenience store.
I mean, Christ, they give them to you on the airplane.
Yeah, giving them on the airplanes.
I read a short article about a lady who was kicked off American Airlines plane, I think, because she was playing her phone.
And her defense was, this was only my second warning.
It's like, you're a fucking adult for Christ's sakes.
First, you shouldn't have to be told once.
No.
That's common courtesy.
Yeah.
But if you are told once, turn it the fuck off.
Yeah.
And cut the shit.
I agree.
Look at all maddy is already.
We're not even trapped at an airplane.
Yeah, I haven't gotten worked up about anything in a while.
Yeah.
This is it.
I love it.
I love it.
I love it.
What I'm here for.
Yeah.
I feel I have the ability to drown it out.
Yeah.
Not me.
Yeah.
I can't, I don't think I'd even notice it.
It's probably going on all around me.
And I kind of just like, you know, just like close my ears to it.
got to you, man.
They have you hypnotized.
Yeah.
I don't know if it's hypnotized.
It's the right word.
Miserized.
No, it's just the, I don't know.
I just don't, if I don't want to hear it, I have, I can not hear it.
Yeah.
But like on an airplane, it's pretty quiet on there.
You know, you hear the drone of the plane, but it's very noticeable.
And it's annoying as hell.
Yeah.
There's enough noise on a plane as it is.
Yeah.
We don't need to hear, like, competing TV.
Like, you know, YouTube or whatever.
Yeah, I'm surprised she took this long to go into official policy.
They don't want to offend anybody.
You want to offend people that do it.
Yeah, good on United, though.
I hope this spreads to all the other airlines.
I'm sure will.
Other airlines should follow suit.
Yeah.
They're going to ban them.
The passengers, yeah.
It's going to happen.
Throw them on the no-fly list.
Yeah, they should be on the same list as terrorists, I think.
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah.
I was wondering on the way, and Walt, I'm sure you see this guy.
The dude dressed up like Statue of Liberty.
Oh, the tax guy?
The tax guy.
Trying to get people to notice the tax company he's promoted.
He has an arrow.
Yeah.
And on the arrow, it says file today.
And, you know, he's sort of pointing it in the general direction of the tax place.
As an advertising medium, how effective do you think that is?
How many people walk in and like, yeah, I saw your guy?
And I need to file my taxes.
So one plus one.
The conversions I have to think are pretty low.
I don't think it would sway.
I think it would actually, like, deter me from going to that place because I'm just like,
this is cruel and unusual fucking punishment, I think.
Because the guy can't sit down, apparently, or he's allowed to sit down for like a second or I think there's rules that you have to be in that corner for that long.
It's a very unusual tactic that I'm surprised has been adopted by so many businesses.
Like, if furniture stores going at a business, use it, any number of places I've seen utilize the, like, they must go to, like, the methadone clinic and be like, hey, do you want to hold a sign for like eight hours?
I think you're right.
And, you know, for 20 bucks.
No experience necessary.
We take all criminal records.
Yeah, I'm with you.
I think that I would not guess that that place was reputable.
And because it is cruel.
Like, I mean, today it's beautiful out.
For some reason, it's 70 degrees out today.
The sun's out, shining.
It's great here.
But there are many days when that's not the case.
And you see these people out in like 20, 25 degree weather.
And they have a foam.
Like a foam costume of the statue of Liberty.
Yeah, like the foam hat, like a little hairband thing.
Yeah.
And they have a, and they can stop to take a drink.
But they have to be, like as long as they're moving their arm, you know, some sort of gyration movement, they're technically, I think, able to stand there with a sign.
You can't sit with a sign, though.
You have to be standing.
This is weird New Jersey law.
I mean, the only reason they make laws like that, right, is because too many people were sitting down?
I really don't know.
I don't understand all.
Oh.
For those that don't know, we're showing the day in the life of the office coach where I was out on Route 36 with an arrow pointing to the TSD General Store.
What was your conversion, Rick?
Yeah.
Zero, negative.
Yeah, how many people came in here and bought hats and barren pop figures.
Hot help.
You liked it, though.
You were out there.
Oh, yeah, I was having fun.
It was the middle of summer, though.
Believe me.
When that camera went off, he collapsed.
Oh, he's dancing?
He's kicking up the deals.
This is the era of getting him when he could dance.
Yeah.
I'm getting back there slowly.
What about when you were directing traffic and doing kung fu?
I couldn't do that because that would scare the horses.
Any large sign would have scared of horses.
But was it inclement weather when you did there?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Like, I was out there rain or shine.
Directing traffic.
And the thing like, I mean, it's good if, like, if you have an intersection,
you can get a couple people to see it.
It's great, I guess.
But the most part, people are speeding by 50 miles an hour.
Like, what'd that say?
Where am I supposed to go?
So if you slowing down now, Maverick.
Yeah.
Would you maybe pick up a couple weekends in a Statue of Liberty foam costume?
You're going to dress as a butterfly.
Why not?
Between that, going back to cons.
But it's a tough choice.
It's easy, though.
Sweating my ass off, spinning a sign or getting treated like, you know.
Yeah, treated like royalty at a car.
where people are bringing him drinks and stuff.
Yeah.
I don't have a tough choice.
Well, is it, I didn't want to ask the tough question.
Okay.
You can decline.
Is it, is to slow down like your choice or is it, is it the cons being like there's just not as many cons nowadays?
It's mainly my choice.
There's definitely no shortage of conventions.
Really?
There's still like, I would think that that window is starting to close as the hobby starts.
I hear it's struggling.
It's not struggling.
There's actually more competition.
I don't mean con-wise.
I'm talking about comics.
Oh, yeah, I think comics, sure.
But these conventions are all pop culture, cons now.
So as long as there's movies and TV out there.
And the guests are a big draw, too, right?
Yeah.
And there's more competition now.
Since Hollywood's kind of dried up, there's no work, you'll start seeing names like Susan
Sarandon and Gina Davis.
And that hurts the Mavericks fucking ask him pricing.
Gina Davis is like, I'm willing to come to a con now.
And you got, well, let's see, we got the for the budget.
Can we budget a maverick?
when we got Gina Davis.
Yeah.
If you got Thelma and Louise versus...
She's like a triple threat.
Versus, uh,
Ming Chen and Mike Zapsick.
Yeah.
That's, yeah, that's...
Really no competition there, unfortunately.
I mean, maybe we drove a convertible off a cliff.
Maybe.
Maybe then, but yeah, I don't think, uh...
Let me check my span folder.
Maybe they're invited there.
Actually, yeah, some of these names are getting bigger.
Yeah.
And does that hurt you when you see those big names show?
A little bit, yeah.
We're, you know, a year or two ago.
You were like, man, you know,
This was, you were too good for this.
Oh, now you, you know, you need to pay your mortgage and pay your butler.
And, uh, you know, you're just paying your, you just need a gas money.
And now they're fucking, they're fucking, this is butler money for them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I got to maintain my cyber truck, like all this.
Yeah.
It's, it's tough, man.
It's, it's tough.
Speaking of Mike's apps, I got any, um.
I've seen him.
See all yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've been by the store.
And still, everything's great.
Everything's good, yeah.
Nice.
Yeah.
He, uh, well, I think the other,
the other week he seemed especially happy.
I'm like, what's going on?
He was like, those guys are mad at you, weren't they?
He thought, uh, he thought after, uh, I think that one pot he thought you guys were mad
at me, so that made him happy.
Yeah.
You know, like, all right, whatever makes you happy, dude?
He thought that TSD was made at the Maverick?
Yeah.
What made you gave him that idea?
I don't know, I guess someone must have.
Gave him bad intel?
Maybe, yeah.
I know there's ants out there that do feed them.
Oh, sure.
Sure.
Yeah.
Double agents.
You got to hear what they said about you this week.
Oh, yeah.
You didn't like set him straight though?
You didn't say, like, why?
Why?
Why are you playing into that?
You're letting him believe that we're mad at you?
Listen, if he's happy and, uh...
Happy Mife?
Happy Mife.
Happy Mike.
Happy Mife, yes.
Mife.
That's exactly it's...
Yes.
That's a Freudian slip.
But yeah, if he's happy, I'm happy.
Really?
Wow.
What kind of mindset do you have to have that if Mike Sapsic's happy, you're happy?
I'm trying to think of the circumstances.
It's just how it is now.
What kind of fucking hamshy wheel is in that cranium?
That's all it takes is to know that if Mike's happy, he's happy.
Check in his Facebook and shit.
You know, what kind of days have it?
Everything good?
Okay, good, good.
Yeah.
Dad, we can breathe now.
Mike's okay.
Oh, my God.
He's in a good mood today.
That tickles me a little bit.
It was like, oh, man, the devil's lost.
I can't go in the store today.
You would avoid me?
The devil's lost?
You really thought that I would take it out on you?
He was lucky.
You'd be in a bad mood.
When you were really, yeah, you know, when you were really.
What year was says?
Like, um,
But that was have been bad for over 14 years.
I still put you in a bad mood.
Pre-2010, pre-Col shock.
Yeah, you were, you, you, you're, you're, and you would be like, uh, they won,
they won last night.
I'll go into the store or if they lost, like, I'm not going to go into the store.
If they lost, I do if I came in before like one, like, I might hit, you might be moody in
the afterwards.
It might just be because it was before one and I was still fucking tired.
Sure, sure.
But I noticed there's a little extra movie news.
Like it kind of upsets me, though, that I was that out of control that, like, irrational.
Like, they avoided me because the devil's lost?
Amongst other things.
Is that your mindset when I'm when I'm pissy to you or you're like,
how the devil's must have lost last night?
Oh, that's something.
Any number of things.
I just knew it wasn't my fault.
Oh, yeah, you're fucking blameless.
Have you been listening to the pod?
Did you listen to last weeks?
Why are we guys talking about big tampons?
You just listen to the fucking title.
You just read the title.
I listened to as much as I could on the way over about 20 minutes.
Oh, okay.
All right.
You guys are, yeah.
Listen.
How can you avoid it?
How can you avoid it?
Avoid what?
Him.
Oh.
There's a breakdown.
at the end of the episode of Gidim and his psychological.
He got a 1984 psychological evaluation.
So we're calling you're trying to adhere to the doctor's orders.
Yes.
From 1984.
They've been ignored for fucking 50 years.
For this many years.
So I feel it's time that somebody at least take these.
These measures?
Like the recommendations from the doctor to actually implement them.
So that's what we're trying to do now.
Good luck.
It's going good.
Really?
Yeah, I get him over to the house the other day just to come over.
Okay, and you actually called him and made...
She wasn't a bird in your flu?
Nothing like that.
I picked him up.
Yeah, we chilled out, set time.
Yeah, we had a conversation, right?
Hang out with your wife.
Wow, all right, no falling asleep in the car outside.
That's okay, I fell asleep.
I fell asleep.
What he was there?
I was laying down on my daughters, but he was built, he was actually making a crib for me.
Not for me.
Okay.
Yeah, well, okay.
Together.
That's all the consent.
And I laid down on my daughter's bed.
And I fell asleep.
Because you had Teddy with you.
I had Teddy later.
Teddy started snoring.
I'm snoring.
And it was like, it was 2 o'clock.
And all of a sudden it became 6 o'clock.
Get him.
Good conversation.
Is it time to take you back to the office?
You feel better?
I know I feel better.
Good job, get them.
I try.
How do you do with the crib?
Looking good?
Absolutely.
exquisite and we would only put Oliver in a crib built by get him Steve Dave.
Wow, really?
Yeah, for fear that any other slack-jawed yokel putting it together, you know,
wouldn't put as much time and, you know, that little extra elbow grease and making
sure the nuts and bolts are tight.
Nice and tight, right.
Touching the detail, yeah.
Yeah.
All right, get them.
Did it.
Good job, get them.
Giddon, while you're working on that, did you have time to solve the mystery of the missing dish soup?
No, I did not.
I've heard this, I heard this around that Gidda left his dish soap in the women's room.
No, I didn't leave my dish soap.
And then when it was gone, he freaked out.
Explain.
Okay, so the men's room only has a, what is it that, like the hand operated.
Yeah, it's a dispenser.
No, no, no, no, the sink itself.
Oh, right.
You've got to like constantly run your head.
It's a motion.
Yeah.
The ladies room on the other hand has handles.
Right.
So when you want to like wash dishes or something, you can turn the hot water on and you get hot water.
Your body.
Hobo bass.
Okay.
So you can keep the flow of water going.
Yeah.
So yeah.
So you get a hot water.
So I have my own dish soap.
But I know other people go in there and wash dishes or used to go in there and wash dishes.
Okay.
So I decided, I'll say, let me just leave like a 99 cent bottle of dish soap.
Because there's also, there's hand soap.
Courteous.
Yeah.
There's hand soap.
And I was like, let me just leave some dish soap.
Yeah.
So I left some dish soap.
Thinking about the other residents of the plaza besides himself.
So not forgotten.
Left there on purpose.
Yes.
Yes.
I even wrote second floor ladies room on it in the Sharpie marker.
Very generous of you.
Yeah.
Yes.
Within 24 hours was gone.
Wow.
Stolen.
Wow.
So back up, you're allowed in the women's room here?
I go in there after 10 o'clock.
Okay.
I always knock, you know, if I don't see, if the lights off, I just, I just, I, I, I, I,
go straight in, but if the lights on, I knock, I go,
housekeeping.
But it's not inaccurate.
No.
I'm washing things.
Yeah.
So, you know, just so that,
housekeeping.
Yes.
And as long as nobody responds, then, you know, I go in.
Okay.
To his defense, though, there are, now that the yarn lane is gone,
it basically is a fucking all-dong action in the airport plaza.
Like, we don't, like, yeah, we see a woman now.
We just go like, what the fuck was that?
Like, it's been so hard.
A lady that works downstairs and that's it.
Yeah, like, we don't see many women up here.
Right.
So my question is, it's all hot dog action.
How did you find out that the sinks in the women's room don't automatically shut off?
Because I went in there one time because the men's room was, the lock was broken on the men's room.
Okay.
So we had to go and use the ladies room.
Yeah.
Okay.
So this was sanctioned by the building.
Well, not by the building.
Oh, you were like, I got it going.
I got to go.
Nature calls.
And you know there's no women in the fucking building.
You wouldn't go in?
I'm bullshit.
Bullshit.
And there's only one restroom in this building?
No, one was in.
There's the men's room and the ladies room.
Right.
It was unusable because we couldn't get in.
The locker is broken.
But that's the only set of restrooms in this whole.
That we have access to.
Yeah, there's another restroom on the other side of the building.
We don't have a key to it though.
No, I think.
I think that's away from it for some reason.
Well, I think that's for that side of the building.
Like the sticker guy used to use it, the tax people downstairs use it.
Okay.
Yeah.
But I love, like, you've basically set up in office and they're like Fonzie and shit.
Some of the ladies are all the graffiti on the wall up your nose with the rubber hose.
Was it stick it?
Sit on it.
Sit on it.
Well, so are you, are there any suspects?
Because aren't you kind of like the security?
guard around here now? Well, we now have a new security guard. Like a real licensed and bonded?
Well, I am licensed by the state of New Jersey as a security guard, yes. Okay. Yeah. Are you certain that
license hasn't expired, especially... No, I renew it every two years. I know, but if they knew your
health conditions, there's no way they'd fucking license you. There is no... They would revoke that
shit so fast. There's no physical requirement. No. It just, it's actually, it's a knowledge
requirement. I can move. It's a knowledge requirement. You have to go through a 24 hours training every two
years. Okay. It's at all online, I imagine?
We mean. The training? No, you have to go into a class. Wow. And what's the class like?
It's just a lot of it, some of the, most of it doesn't apply to you. If a train leaves the station at
no, like it's like the last one, it had modules on like how to tell if a cargo container's been
tampered with and stuff like that. Yeah. It's all common sense. You feel? I feel yeah.
And it's number one, it doesn't apply to me, but yeah. Why doesn't apply to you?
None of my security jobs involved shipping containers and checking seals and stuff like that.
You never know.
I'd never know.
I'd love a nice doc job.
Those are really good.
You want a no-show doc job?
He's already got a no-show here.
How many no-shows does he need?
He's mobbed up.
You actually have to go again this year.
You will fail.
When you fucking shamble in,
and you're like,
oh my God,
we cannot with a good conscience,
give this guy.
Did his check clear?
Okay,
he's good.
Is there like an exam at the end?
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
It's so easy.
Okay.
Yeah.
The initial one was pretty tough
because you have to go through,
I think it was 48 hours of work.
Which is why you don't want to let it expire.
Because if you let expire,
you have to go through all that all over again.
Yeah.
So I've had an active since like 20,
12. Wow. And they get a like a certificate at the end.
You used to get a card. Now they don't do a card. It's all on. It's an online.
Okay. So, which is upsetting because I, that actually helps sometimes.
Right. Because it's issued by the state police. So I could use that as ID for like the six points of, uh, driver's license.
Yeah. Yeah. So here. So here. Oh. Oh. Wait. Yeah. I'm almost falling asleep here.
There's a real security guard here now.
Yeah. And do you get along with here?
There's got a real security guard here. Don't for it.
perpetuate lies.
Well, I do walk the floor.
Yeah.
So did you?
Oh, so you were referring to yourself.
There's not somebody else who also does.
Well, now, now there is.
No.
Okay.
But going back to the dishwashing.
Yes.
And the investigation.
Who are your leads?
Like, who are you targeting as?
Do you think Flo just took it on her way out?
I thought for sure he would have a cork board up here with the yarn and everything.
But to me, I don't have access to yarn anymore.
Yeah.
Our lady left.
She took all the yarn off our cork board.
I used to pull out of her track.
Now there's none.
But let's say the yarn lady kind of in a state of emotional distress, you know, she's retiring after 40 years in the building was like, you know what, I'm taking this.
Just because I need to take something.
I need this.
I need this feel like I'm getting over on the man.
Like when people steal office supplies.
Yeah.
Would it be that big a deal?
Let her have to dish detergent.
Maybe she came back and as revenge she took it because she's like, where's my sandwich?
sandwich board.
She had just asked, I would have told her.
As soon as Q said, take that sandwich board, I was downstairs.
Yeah, you can't really bitch a moan if someone steals your fucking plant or your dish detergent
because you're fucking taking sandwich boards left and right.
There was a sandwich board that's on the front.
You're like, your eyeing up is like, I'm stealing that.
There was a note on the plant that said it belonged to the sweet.
I'm not staying in business for a long time.
There was a note on that plant, and the guy ripped the note off.
Oh, was that the one that said I have a home or whatever?
Oh, and he took it off and stole your plant?
The dentist, the dentist on this floor took the plant.
Really?
Yeah.
No idea.
Then when he found, when I found out he took it, he was like,
was going to keep it?
Do you want it back?
I was like, yes, I want the plant back.
I would have been like, keep it.
Yeah?
Just take it.
Yeah, he wanted it that bad.
He was probably going to give it a lot of love, more attention than you do.
No.
Because the person who took the Linsicado, they killed it.
Oh, God.
Not the Lanzacado.
I don't mean to be mean.
You've been awesome.
You're a great guy, but I think you're killing the vibe of the show.
We've got the Maverick here, and he hasn't even spoken because you're going on about plants and fucking nonsense.
Let me see if I got liven it up with a spot.
All right.
What do we got this week?
Oh, Ming, you're going to be happy to hear this.
We got Squarespace.
Oh, all right.
Building websites.
Yeah, I know that you use Squarespace.
I do.
Remember you used to call Eric Square Dick?
Yeah.
When's the last time you called your brother, like, Square Dick?
In a while.
The cubicle, cubicle.
You should just text them.
Hey, what's up, Square Dick?
Just to see what he says.
See if he's like, oh.
Damn, I thought you'd stop call me then.
I think it would be heartwarming.
He's like, oh, my God.
Does Pam?
And Edgar know you call him that?
I don't think so.
She called Pam.
People liked him when he called Pam the other day.
Oh, yeah.
We love Pam.
And what was the reason why he was Square Dick?
I haven't know because there's rhyme with Eric.
It doesn't rhyme with Eric.
A little bit.
What?
Yeah, not at all.
Eric Squared Dick.
Duh.
Okay, so I just texted on what's going on on Squaredick.
I mean, doesn't have the same ring as, say, SpongeBob SquarePants?
Eric Squirtick.
Yeah, it doesn't rhyme at all.
Eric, Squaredick.
Yeah, I guess the K rhymes.
The K, yeah.
Just because they have both ending K.
That's a stretch, though.
I stretch.
There's some poet over there, isn't it?
What am I going to write with Eric?
Professional writer.
Leave him alone.
Wow.
Fucking Jim Morrison.
And now there's Brian Johnson.
American Pollitts.
Maya Angelou.
Square Dick Johnson, the cubicle, pubicle.
Let's name a rest up after him.
Yeah, but square space, not square dicks.
Not square dick.
Square space.
They give you everything you need to offer services and get paid all in one place from consultations to events and experiences.
Showcase your offerings and customize.
website designed to attract clients and grow your business.

Ming?
I do get paid on time.
All right.
That's thanks to,
uh,
thanks to Squarespace with their online payments.
Plus streamline your workflow with,
workflow with built in appointment scheduling and email marketing tools.
Every dream needs a domain,
Ming.
You had a dream.
I did.
What was your dream,
Ming?
My,
my dream over on life.
Yeah.
Uh,
besides playing any number of professional sports.
Really?
Sure.
Wait a minute.
You,
you,
had a dream of being professional athlete.
Don't most guys?
Yeah, but.
Midget wrestling?
There's, uh,
there's,
what year did you hold that dream on?
You know,
when you're younger,
it was,
you know,
say ages six to 12 maybe.
Even at 12,
you had the,
you're under the illusion that you could be a professional player.
I was like,
Hey,
you know,
in what league?
I'm about to hit puberty,
maybe,
go,
oh, okay,
if the, if the, if the,
if when pub hits,
it's hormones.
Yeah,
you're going to turn it to a six foot.
Yeah,
from four,
225 pound Adonis.
Yes.
They could hit a 99 mile per hour fastball.
So when 14 came around and you looked in the mirror where you're like...
When I tried out for the high school baseball team.
And I didn't come close to making it.
Yes, that's when the dream died.
What was your, like, what was your attributes?
Like, what were your good qualities as a ball player?
I thought I had some speed.
I thought.
Yeah.
Until you raced any other, some of the other players on the team.
Yeah, they were, yeah, they were taller and faster than me.
Longer stride.
That's what I, yeah, that's why I blamed it on, sure.
And your parents, you should have blamed it on.
It's not a fault that you're not.
Right then I'm not.
DeGi genetics, yeah.
Superiority, yeah.
But, uh, so you abandon the pro athlete dream.
What's your next dream then?
I mean, the next one is be rich and famous somehow.
Are you, you're well in your way, right?
Halfway there.
I mean, at one point, you know, the podcast studio?
The trajectory is looking pretty good for, say,
you were on the right track.
We were on a track.
You're on a track.
We were on a track.
From, you know, say the years 2012 to 2018, it was looking pretty good.
But as soon as AMC said, then you had to stay another dream.
A fucking goes to bites the dust.
Yeah, then you're, then.
All right, so what's the third dream?
Then you're old now.
This is the third act.
Yeah, now what Darren used to call, like, when he was into the Amway stuff,
I didn't call him dream stealers.
Like, if you weren't in.
Dream killers.
Dream killers.
We heard that term first hand.
Yeah.
Dream killers.
So what's Ming Chen's new third act dream?
The third act, right now is just get out of bed every morning.
It's gone from fucking professional athletes and now just getting out of bed.
That's not Ming Chen.
Are you suffering from depression?
No.
But, you know, come on.
That is not the Ming Chen, the Maverick.
I know that now his dream is to get out of bed in the morning.
It's getting a little late in the game to, uh...
This is a hard 51.
The past 10 years, he hasn't been fucking.
around. He's been out there partying, living the life.
So what? There's no
mountains to climb for Ming Chen?
I would love to be back on TV again.
Are you making any movements towards that, though?
Not really. It's tough, though. You know,
but you got to do something. You just can't be like, oh, one day I'll be back on TV.
I'm not going to do anything.
Wait, what?
That's what I'm hoping for.
Yeah.
What's the last show you pitched?
It worked once.
Yeah.
Work once. Why not again?
Worked once. Why not again?
Wow.
These kind of do seem like a little bit of
of rapid dreams, though.
I just want to be rich and famous.
Compared to, you know, curing diseases.
There's no path to it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, I hear you.
It's all fluff.
Yeah.
Because when you gain fame and fortune, you realize it's empty.
I don't know if anybody's told you that.
who's famous and rich.
Yeah, is that why you developed a drinking problem?
Yeah, that cured everything.
That cured everything.
Oh, there he is.
Michigan.
Yeah.
Did you just AI that right now?
Yeah.
That's great, man.
Yeah.
I mean, I get the body there of a baseball player.
Just, like, you'd have to be, you got to hit a baseball and field really well.
Remember, you have a, at least in that picture, you have a Kirby.
Pucket type body.
I do.
Not in real life, though.
You need to put on a little bit more muscle mass to get that Kirby
bucket.
Start lifting.
Start taking that protein powder that get him's taken.
Or do we have, uh, if he gets, if he ever gets out of jail, I'll hook you up with a guy
I know in, uh, downstairs who might be able to get you some, some good steroids.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Oh, that's what you need.
You need to droid up, man.
At this point, yeah, that's, uh, it's the only way it's going to happen.
That would be a good idea.
Yeah.
Uh, square space.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yes.

Oh, and how do you feel about that, Ming?
Some people are anti-AI.
What are your feelings on AI?
I want to hear Ming Chen's feelings.
It can be useful.
It's going to kill a lot of jobs.
You think so?
Yeah.
And overall, is it good?
I don't know.
I mean, we were kind of warned about this in 1984 when Terminator came out and no one's listening.
So, yeah, ultimately, I think it's going to...
The people say that.
Now, I must have missed a portion of the movie because I don't remember anybody talking about AI, like making
like Ming Chen
looked like a baseball player
now being as dangerous
as a fucking murdering
cybernetic robot
that to me is at the same
threat level
They didn't really touch on that
when they're talking about
cyber die
I mean that's how cyberdating got started
They were doing memes
and stuff like that
But what can we do though
To save like the writers
of Hollywood
From having to fucking be
You know
The threat of AI writing movie scripts
I don't know
I think it's too
late.
It's too late.
Geney's out of the bottle.
Yeah.
As a podcast.
Out of the tube.
As a podcast studio owner, have you found that it impacts your business in any way?
Only positively.
Okay.
Yeah.
So, all positive.
Just, um, even, you know how you write the description of the episode every week?
Just throw through AI and it spits it out in like two seconds.
Just made it easier.
You're doing it?
What?
What, write the description?
You're writing AI, you're letting AI write the descriptions?
Nobody has to.
I could.
I could, I guess.
A lot of people are.
Most people are doing it like that.
It would probably take me longer to figure out how to do that
than to just write it down.
Yeah, that's true.
I've been seeing commercials on Pluto for a podcast studios.
Yeah, yeah, the one in L.A.
Have you considered something like that?
They're nice.
Those are, they're expensive, but, uh...
I mean, you like a commercial, though.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, you have.
I would love to have a commercial on Pluto.
If you need a director.
This man right over here.
Directed commercial like you wouldn't believe.
Yeah, it would be cool to have, uh, on,
like the comedy channel, like watching Three's company.
I think Pluto's probably a little bit more, uh, your price point.
Yeah, I think so.
Rather than Comedy Central.
Yeah.
Do you, do you own the rights to the price might?
Yes, he does.
I'm sure AMC wouldn't even remember.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was an injunction issue.
Yeah.
You bring back price might for, uh, for, yeah.
The, uh, the pitch for, eh, ha, ha.
It could work.
It could work.
Ming, you know what you got to do?
What do I have to do?
You got to head to.
go to checkout Squarespace.com for a free trial.

I highly endorse this product.
Yeah, you like it.
If you're still using them, I still use them.
Yeah, I need a quick website and didn't want to spend a lot of time building it.
And, yeah, I had it up in like a couple hours.
All right.
Yeah.
How many websites you got now?
I think one, like two or three, not that many.
Don't you monitor daily?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, not like the old days.
It was responsible for.
Hey, if now you're going to have some free time, if we both of us, you know, went back and we're like, like, flobby for our old jobs back at Vioskil, you think the, what you think the interest level is.
And we come in with like, with like, we'll do it for half the price we did or back in the day.
Oh.
We're drunk desperate.
It would wreak of a little
desperation, but we did
We did good work back in the day.
I thought we did.
I think we could still be assets at half the cost.
At half the cost now?
Half the price.
Same amount of work, half the price.
Would that mean, I guess,
of people that are doing our jobs now
get ousted?
Yeah, would you do it just for spite?
A spite job?
Is who's doing your job?
They got multiple people that, you know, freelancers.
I think it's AI at this point.
Yeah.
Sorry, Ming, you can't come back.
Well, you're in.
But, yeah, I think that would mean
whoever's doing our jobs currently or, I don't, yeah.
Okay.
Especially if we're coming at half the price, we lowball it.
Yeah.
We got to go in and we've got to have a power meeting.
They would definitely be like, what is going on?
What are they trying to infiltrate this company?
Work on your elevator pitch.
Yeah.
There would be a degree of suspicion.
I'm sure.
Why?
Why is it?
We just miss it.
I miss me going to Red Bank every day.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The traffic, the people.
It was great.
Remember that guy, Doc?
Yeah.
What was his real name?
The, which doc?
He was a psychiatrist.
Yeah.
What was his real name?
Remember how I'm talking about?
Oh, yeah.
You remember his real name?
We could tell me off my name.
No, I don't remember the name.
I just remember the discussions I used to hear.
All right.
Sorry, Squarespace.
We're done with that.
Oh, we're done?
Yeah, we're moving on.
Yeah, we're moving on the Blute show.
Oh, we actually do a blue chute.
Yeah, we do a blue chute today.

You just be like, hey, this ain't your dad's little blue pill.
I think it's to make it seem even less cool.
Well, yeah, that's even more, you know, ancient than.
It's even more of a, like, you know, grab you by the face.
and be like, hey, wake up, stupid.
Right.

That's a lot of blood flow.
I just thought maybe he made it like almost like a fucking adamantium dick.
No, I think they specifically weren't against doing that for that result.
I don't think it works.
There might be dimwits out there.
They might be like, you know, if I take six of them, that's six times harder.
Some people would think that, yeah
I would love to think that way.
From the minds of Wakanda.
Come here,
snicked.
Did you see, wait, go ahead, me?
No, I'm sure there are people who think that way
and they suffer the consequences.
So this is your warning if you're listening.
Don't take six at one time.
Yeah, I'm sorry, worry about to say.
I'm rolling the dice on this story.
The Georgia teen who got charged with killing the high school
teacher and the prank gone wrong.
Did you see that?
I'm really torn on this one because normally I'm like,
fucking kids, you know,
forgetting my own youth.
Yes.
But it's a, these kids,
it was like a senior prank that they were pulling on,
their teacher who evidently was aware of it.
He was like kind of in on it.
And,
um,
what happened was they were toilet papering his house and he ran outside to get them.
And they took off,
you know,
they ran,
they got in their car.
And I guess he,
He slipped and he fell on somehow he slipped and fell underneath the car.
And they ran him over.
They ran him over and killed him.
They killed the guy.
Or the guy got killed, I should say.
Prank on wrong.
So, prank gone wrong.
Yeah.
Is there ring footage?
I haven't seen it.
There's got to be.
You would think so.
You would think so.
Because if you're chasing someone, usually that means you're behind the car.
You're not in front of the car.
Right.
It says after catching the prank.
He ran after the teens but slipped and fell into the road because of the rainy weather and was run over as he...
By the car with the kids or by another car?
By the kids.
He was driving his pickup truck away.
The five teens gave first aid to the injured teacher before first responders arrived and rushed him to a hospital where he later died of injuries.
His wife Laura had previously called for charges against the teens to be dropped.
This is a terrible tragedy and our family is determined to prevent a separate tragedy from occurring ruining the lives, ruining the lives.
of these students.
Oh, so they don't even want to press charges.
They don't want to press charges, but the prosecutor's like, no, I want to.
I want to get these guys.
I think there might be more to the story than we're getting then if the prosecution
feels that there's something there.
I mean, first off, how are you in front of the car if you're chasing the car?
Well, I mean, you can run to the side of it, right?
You can run up along the side and then fall and go underneath.
If they were parked in front of his house, like, two.
Because they backed up and ran them over.
Don't look that way.
Like if he was running in front of their car to get around to the driver's side.
And then as he's running, he slips and they're already in drive.
And should all everybody in the car get charges or just the driver?
Just the driver is getting charged.
I think that's fair.
The other people are getting charged with criminal trespassing and littering.
Or that was the, I mean, come on.
Yeah, those are.
It's not private fucking property.
It's going to forever.
It's hard to recover from that.
if you kill somebody in a prank, a high school prank, a senior prank.
But I'm not willing to just like just because the wife is like, well, no charges.
I would want to hear more about why they want to charge them before making a decision like that we shouldn't charge them.
Because they didn't intend to kill them.
You know, a lot of things happened where you didn't intend for it to happen, but you were fucking stupid.
Yeah, well, look, I hate to be.
victim blame here. But is there any onus on this guy who ran out into the road in the rain
chasing a truck? Is it partially his fault doing something? What should he have done?
I don't know. Let him do it. Go come out and be like, hey, you guys. You would just let someone
TP your house? No, but I mean, if they were students in mind and I recognize them, because
evidently this prank was worth two points, like the seniors have this. So let's say, well, how would you
recognize him unless you went to chase the vehicle?
Let's say
Rupp and Chuck are T.P. in your house.
You're not just going to sit there and be like,
you're going to go out there and you're going to chase them.
I would be like, no, what did guys do it?
No, I'm not running all the way down to the road in my house.
I'm like, I can't wait until we record.
The weirdest thing happened.
Yeah, but you're like, that's why I have guns, man.
Finally, I get, my firearms get put to use.
Yeah, put one in Chuck's tail.
Get back here, Rob.
Yeah, I mean, so, I mean, in response to you like, you would want to know more,
this is pretty much everything I've seen so far.
It's like there hasn't been, after it happened,
there hasn't been like a ton of information beyond that, yeah, that was given.
Did you, did you, did you tip you ever tipied a house?
I've never teepied a house, you?
Um, I, I tried.
I went with a friend, but halfway there.
It was the middle of the night.
You had to take a shit.
You had a toilet paper.
What happened to that toilet paper, man?
Now I chickened out, and my friend kept on going.
I turned tail and went back home.
I got scared I was going to get caught.
It was mischief night.
It wasn't mischief night.
It was just some random night.
I would go out on mischief night.
I never tepeeed a house, but I would throw eggs.
I soap up windows.
I wrote some pretty fucking funny-ass shit.
On windows?
On the windows of people's cars of God.
Sit on it.
Stick it.
No.
Yeah, it was a little bit more colorful than the sit on it.
Guys who are like who always like chases off from playing football on the street.
Okay.
Like because the football may have hit their car and Nerf.
Yeah.
They paid for that.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
As I exposed what they put in their mouth.
Right.
Oh, no.
Yeah.
In soap.
Everyone to see in soap.
Yeah.
I drew a wild ass on the side.
out of their car.
Oh yeah.
We did some of it.
We would shoot bottle rockets.
Right.
At just houses and shit.
Yeah.
We were a fucking wild at him.
Yeah.
We ran to streets.
It's the kind of shit that if like, you're right, if somebody was shooting
bottle rockets on my house, I'd be like, what the fuck?
Like, what is going on here?
Like, this is weird.
It's 1983.
It was different rules back there.
Yeah, there really were.
No rules.
No rules.
I remember one night I was working at the supermarket over.
nights and some kids came in and bought three cases of eggs.
You weren't supposed to sell them to them, right?
I tried to stop the sale.
Of course he did.
You stepped in.
You intervened?
I'm like, I called the manager over.
I'm like, he's the biggest.
He's the biggest fucking cocksucker, isn't it?
What a stickler, man.
How would you feel if someone aged your house and no one tried to stop it?
It was two o'clock in the morning.
I would assume nobody was trying to stop it.
It was two o'clock in the morning.
I said, who?
What teenagers are buying eggs at 2 o'clock in the morning?
Three, three, like, 36 packs of eggs.
So your mornings fell on deaf ears?
Yeah.
Like, get him, shut the fuck up.
We want to sell these eggs.
God damn it.
We got shit to sell, man.
It's three eggs, a cartons of eggs I'm going to sell that I wasn't going to sell.
So please, I'm not going to fuck this sale up.
Shut the fuck up and bag it.
Yeah, so that's somewhere someone will be like, well, my house didn't get it.
I'm sure there was some fucking grocery store clerk who stopped it.
Yeah, my hero.
Sometimes there's a hero that no one ever sees.
Yeah, when the hero comes along.
Yeah, what a little bitch.
I would just feel like, there you go.
He's the fucking, he's the guy that, yeah, like,
I would be fighting such fucking horrible shit on your windows and soap.
If I was a kid that you tried to stop us from buying eggs.
Oh, yeah, everybody would know what you put in your mouth, bro.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
And your butt.
wherever I fit that's where it's going.
Yeah, just remember, not all heroes wear three pens in an LED.
Some heroes wear aprons.
How did you try to stop the sale?
Were you renting a raving?
I said, I have to ask my manager if I can approve this sale.
How old are you?
Oh, uh, 28, 30.
Oh, my God.
Shut up, old man.
And my manager just was like, yeah, sell him to him.
Dude, there was, there was, there, I was in high school and I had a job, um, I had a job at Foo Town.
That's what this was.
And there was kids that came in that I was in summer school.
And one of the kids in my summer school class came in and brought beer.
And I didn't even fucking rat him out because I was like, and this is breaking the law, not fucking buying eggs.
And I was, I didn't like the guy either, but I wasn't going to be a fucking the hero that stands up and it was like, this is wrong.
I was like, fuck it, man.
He didn't, like, they didn't care back then.
It was 1984.
Nobody gives a fuck.
No.
Especially about eggs.
Does anybody egg houses anymore?
Apparently, yes.
No, they don't.
Do they?
Why were they buying?
No, no, I'm talking about, in 2020.
No, no, I'm talking about, 2006.
Does anybody else?
Yeah.
Not 20 years ago.
Well, it doesn't make the news so I can check, but I knew that these kids were, because
especially when they went to leave, they had a, one of the, it was like an astro man.
Mm-hmm.
And the window was taken out.
out of the sliding door.
So you knew they were.
Oh, yeah.
Drive by egging.
Yeah.
All the clues pointed to it.
Yeah.
But my manager was like not just some of the eggs.
Well, you have your ear to, uh, stuck firmly to a police scanner.
You don't hear about, uh, egging on, uh, no, a lot of the police scanners are now, uh, encrypted.
So I mostly get first aid calls.
Okay.
Yeah.
Why do they do that?
So that like criminals can't listen in?
It's just, it's, the radios are cheaper, I guess, and less interference and the state
police can monitor the frequencies.
so they know what's going on.
It's just easier for communications.
I know someone's Jeep who's going to get egged this mischief made.
Yeah.
In the airport plaza?
I won't notice.
You know, you're right.
It wouldn't matter.
Get covered.
We got the unlimited wash plan.
You come down like mugs.
You'll look at your Jeep clean.
Cage-free.
Yeah, don't get killed chasing him down.
Get them.
Is that Eric?
Don't get killed.
No, he's an answer.
He's probably working.
Well, I'm sure who was ever, I guess the house did that gag, right?
Oh, yeah, they weren't baking cakes at 2 o'clock in the morning.
Damn, you'll never know.
I know who you've put a save.
Richard Jewell.
You could have been Richard Jewel.
See how it worked out for him.
He was a hero.
There's a new trend.
Now, Ming, I think you eventually told your wife that you,
and I had a mini bachelor party when you got married.
Yes.
She knows all about it.
Yes.
Walt, his bachelor party was devil's game.
Yes.
My bachelor party was sitting around a table podcasting with you guys.
It's great.
But there's a new trend.
Because usually people guys go to strip clubs.
Yes.
That's the tried and true classic
Bachelor party.
Bachelor party move.
But women now.
instead of getting a stripper because there was a long period where they were getting strippers,
there's a trend towards getting magicians.
Magicians?
Yes.
Wow, that's totally the same.
It's totally the same thing, right?
Did they perform in a banana hammock?
They don't perform in a banana hammock.
It's just a regular magician and it's not like erotic or anything.
I read this in the paper, well, online.
But, you know, you have like a bachelor art party and like Harry Blackstone shows up or David Copperfield.
or...
Well, I don't think you're getting those guys.
I think you're getting a guy
like off of Facebook
or...
You're getting Tom.
Yeah, you're getting Tom, the magician.
Do you think guys will follow suit?
I'm going to take a wild guess
and say no, but
if it's a female magician, maybe,
and she's wearing pasties.
Yeah. But it has to be some sexual element.
It can't just be a regular magician.
Yeah.
There has to be a thawful.
somewhere.
Maybe a rabbit has wearing a thong, a little
mini thong. There has to be a thong
Yes, just one thong somewhere.
A thong has to make an appearance at some point in the night.
Right.
But yeah, I don't know if...
I don't think this is going to catch on in the
Bachelor Party community.
Here it is.
Getham found it.
This is an ad?
That's just someone looking for a magician for a bachelor party.
Hello, we were visiting in July for a bachelorette.
11 adult girls.
looking for a magician to come to the house.
Don't ask.
Don't ask.
Does anyone have any recommendation?
It still sounds a little like.
Salacious.
Yeah, it doesn't sound as wholesome as you making.
It does sound like the weird, like stilted wording of it makes it still sound like it's dirty.
Well, I think she's like, normally we would get a stripper, but for some reason we're getting a fucking magician.
Don't ask why.
But there's a trend now, you say.
That's what I read.
It's a trend.
Let's see.
Yep, brides mates, bridesmaids swear a new trend of bachelor parties is even better than a stripper.
They're swapping abs and lap dances for a new kind of thrill.
For rabbits and coin trucks.
Yeah.
Yeah, and there's a picture of the guy performing.
He's just in a suit jacket and a fully closed.
Button up shirt.
Yeah, there he is.
He's right there.
Oh, yeah.
He's just fully dressed.
Yeah.
I wonder how much you can make.
He'll typically perform for an hour.
I mean, what, 100 bucks maybe?
That's it?
Yeah, I can't imagine there.
That seems like a lot of work.
Like, for an hour?
Yeah, but you're, would you pay more than 100?
Probably.
Or for a magician?
Well, if it's a bachelor's rep party, there's, you know, there's a bunch of girls there.
They could all chip in.
Even if, like, you know, you got 10 girls in each chip in 20 bucks.
Right.
Then you got 200 for the magician.
It's an expensive magician, though, man.
I don't know.
What's the magician's going rate?
I'm not even sure.
I'm not priced a magician, yeah.
Oh, here's the thing.
It's because, uh, they say that, um,
No one felt awkward or left out and everyone was laughing and generally comfortable and amazed,
which isn't always the case at Bachelorette.
Okay.
Now it all makes sense.
Yeah.
So it's for the other people who aren't into the stripper.
Like we have a friend that's like, ooh, precious, or they're married or whatever.
This is all inclusive.
Yeah.
He puts shaving cream on his magic wand.
You know, and then the girls have to lick off the magic wand.
It would be better if it was whipped cream than shaving cream probably.
Yeah, that's what I know.
I heard Jimmy's having like four bachelor parties.
Is he really?
I have been invited to any of them.
I wonder if the magicians been invited to any of them.
Probably.
He seems like that kind of guy.
Have you heard of like the themes of these?
No, no.
I think like all it, like the members of his.
The jugglers.
No, like what's the wedding party?
Yeah, the wedding party.
You're like vying to throw like the best bachelor party for him.
Oh, yeah.
It's a competition.
Yeah.
I think truck wants to be number one.
He's going to have to hire a magician.
Yeah.
Recommend it to him.
Yeah, make that shaving cream disappear.
I meant whipped cream.
Yeah, lunches and cocktails followed by games dancing activities.
It seems outdated and unpredictable, they say.
Wow.
The world is evolving, huh?
Sounds riveting, but, yeah, I don't see a bunch of dudes doing this.
No.
Why don't you have a stripper?
You didn't want a stripper wall?
Or was it your, we think your wife would get upset?
I don't think the devils would have been too.
It was a fun bachelor party.
I'll say that much.
We had a good time.
Yeah.
Well, we had, we had fun at ours too.
Yeah, we had a good time.
Yeah, we had a real good time.
Bing's bachelor party was me, him, a stripper who we were friends with,
and then a teacher who we were friends with.
Yeah.
And then we just went to strip clubs and hung out.
Yeah, good old jersey.
It was fun.
Yeah, it was a good time.
It was fun.
Thanks.
Brian Johnson, knows that throw a party, man.
Yeah.
I do it rarely, but I do it.
If you get a party, he's turning 50 on, I think it's Sunday.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
He won't be here, though, so we're going to try to schedule some kind of.
Oh, nice.
To do.
Big five-o.
Yeah.
Who's he happened right now?
He's down in Key West.
Oh, really?
Getting ready?
Sure.
Yeah.
He's there for a week getting ready.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's going to take that much time to.
You excited for QS, Meng?
I'm very excited.
Last year was awesome.
Yeah.
And I expect nothing less this year.
Have you announced?
Oh, yeah, you announced your father's coming, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm excited about that.
I have never met your dad.
Ask these guys what you should do about the Jersey.
Oh, I already ordered it.
Everybody tell them the dilemma you had.
You had a dilemma with the jersey?
What's going on?
So I wanted to get my dad a jersey so that he was easily identifiable.
So in case, in case I'm not around people.
Well, no, just so if I'm not around, like, you know, someone at least keep their
eye on him. We want to order him a Giants jersey.
Okay.
New York Giants.
Yeah, New York Giants.
She purchased to pin a note to his shirt, no.
I don't get him sad.
He's identifiable as like, like, did you think that he would be like, oh my God, that's
Phil Sims?
Like, what do you mean?
Like, how is he easily identified?
Well, people would know that he's my father.
Because he's wearing a Giants jersey.
That has Gettam's dad written in the back.
Oh, okay.
Okay, okay.
Just spell it out for everybody.
Yeah, I would already, yeah, custom jersey for him.
But I was trying to find out the right color.
Oh, the jersey?
Yeah, like, did he want the white jersey?
Would he want the blue jersey?
What do you want to, you know.
Okay.
So I was trying to find out which color jersey he wanted.
I was trying to find, like, the best way.
He was trying to find out without ask his father.
Oh.
Oh, you want it.
Surprising.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
I told him go blue, but it wasn't good enough.
I was, I don't think go blue too.
Yeah, that's pretty standard.
There's two different, there's like two or three different blue ones.
Oh, my God.
Can't just home blue giants.
This is what you guys do all day here?
I tell him
He asked me, I give an answer
And then it's, but he doesn't like the answer, no
No. No.
I just want to know which, because again, there's a new blue one.
There's an old blue one.
I said, get the 80s blue one.
Yeah.
Which is when I ended up doing.
When they're champions.
I thought you got the weight and the blue.
Eventually, yeah.
I take it the, well, no.
He's like $30 jerseys.
What the hell?
Well, no, I went both blue.
Okay.
Yeah, I went both blue.
Okay.
So you can have one for each day.
Yeah.
Okay.
Did you have a number?
on his jersey too.
Yeah, I found that his high school.
His IQ number.
Oh, the high school football number?
Yeah.
Okay.
So what was it?
62.
Oh.
Yeah.
What was he a lineman?
I'm not sure.
I'm not ever really asked.
Wichita lineman?
No.
Is your dad prone to like just wandering off?
No, just so like people could, you know, make sure he's being taken care of if I'm,
like, if I'm, like, if I'm that available or if I'm doing something.
Okay.
Now, what does that mean, like, quote unquote, taken care of?
Like, what?
And who are these people that are taking charge?
You know, I was just going to ask the other answer just to, you know, make sure he's having a good time, like type deal.
Right.
Like, you know, he's not being excluded.
What does that entail, though, like have a good time?
That sounds almost like wink, wink, wink, make sure he has a good time.
If you know what I mean.
No, just like, you know, he's not bored, you know, just.
Bored.
Just asking a lot of people.
Now it's on these strangers that he's never spoken to.
So make sure he's done.
It's important.
Make sure he's entertained and having a.
Well, he's not just like sitting by himself.
This is the fevered mind.
Like he doesn't, like he.
Being worried about my father.
No, listen, but you wouldn't even mention this on Mike, though.
So in his mind, he buys this jersey, two of them.
Yes.
This ensures in his brain that if his father is there, if strangers see him, they'll
read the back of his jersey, realize it's, get him's father, and then make sure he's not
board.
But he would never have put this out there.
No, I was going to say something when we were down there.
Okay.
Yeah.
Spread the word.
Yeah.
Well, he was like, hey, guys.
Hey, just listen.
Can't that be your responsibility, Ming?
To make sure he's a good time?
Yeah.
Well, when he's in the butterfly sanctuary.
All right.
So, like, yeah, so when Ming's in his butterfly costume, he can't make sure he's
having a good time.
Yeah.
Or if they want me to do some.
What are you doing?
You can't make sure.
Yeah.
I've already, I've already offered myself for down there.
So as what?
Whatever they wanted me to do.
No, no, I'm talking about for your father.
Why can't you make sure your dad's having a good time?
Again, if I'm doing something.
What are you doing?
I've already offered to do anything they wanted me to do.
What did you last year?
I was helping Chuck with the recording and stuff.
You're on stage.
I was on stage.
Yeah.
So your dad will be left alone when you do those things.
Yeah.
All right.
So ants who are coming.
You know now there's going to be like any number of ants who now.
They're going to want to like basically tag along with your.
Let's steer clear, get him's dad, otherwise I've got to entertain him.
No, I think there's some that will be like, I want to watch.
Oh, yeah, you can hang out with us.
Yeah, yeah.
And now he's going to have plenty.
Yeah.
Probably too many.
I just, you know.
How much would you hate that if, like, one of your daughters did that to you?
Just make sure.
Like, make sure everybody's around my dad at all times.
Make sure you talk to him and don't leave him alone.
I'll let him get bored.
Don't let him be bored.
Yeah.
Now, what do you want your...
As you can see, there's tons of different jerseys out there.
So what would be the bridge too far, though?
Like, all of a sudden, you're, you know, you, after helping Chuck, you kind of go,
where's my dad?
And then you find out, like, some ants took him to, like, strip club or something?
Oh, no, they took him to the Garden of Eden.
Let's say we took him to the Garden of Eden.
What's the Naked Bar?
That's it.
That's the Garden of Eden.
Yeah, and he was, like, basically, like, painting the town red.
Okay, good for him.
And then his girlfriend found out back home when she broke up when it was wonderful.
Oh, no, that's all your fault.
That's on him, that.
That's on me.
Is your dad committed?
Yeah, he's got, he's had a girlfriend for 30-something years.
Wow, okay.
So, yeah, you can't get crazy.
Can't mess.
Don't get the man fucking.
Hey, what happens in Q West, stays in Q West.
I doubt his girlfriend listens to the pod.
Like I said, looking out for my father.
Have the jerseys come yet?
No.
No, you're getting nervous at the beginning.
A little.
Well, they're coming from China, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, it was a Chinese New Year.
They don't do any work down there.
But it's over now.
It's your father.
Why ain't you just going out into the fucking dicks and buy him a fucking giant's jersey?
No, it's a hundred bucks.
Yeah.
They'll do that.
At dicks.
Yes.
They will.
They will.
It'll cost you like 10 times as much.
It's his father.
It's true.
He has my father, but I'm still me.
And it's guaranteed to be here on time.
You don't have to, like, stress and worry about it.
Now you're all stressed about it.
Well, I'm not really.
stressed. They said that it would be here about time, so I trust China.
They called me friends, so it's, you know what?
They tell me, do not worry, friend.
Dear friend, it will be there. Do not worry.
All right, China, I trust you.
Don't trust the Chinese schedule. Do not trust the Chinese.
Well, good luck. I'm glad we have an identifying marker now so we know it's your dad.
You see anybody in Giants jersey.
Yes. It could be get him's father.
Could be get him's father.
I'm going to get married both most is Bryce's wife.
Jersey?
Yeah.
What kind of jersey should I get her?
Okay, we got it.
We already fucking...
You're welcome, friend.
We cannot have another fucking quite like bug everybody about what jersey you should buy.
You already did that or you forget them.
You're going to decide what jersey would get her on your own.
Yeah, all right.
Jersey of a winner.
What else, man?
Anything else where we hit the road?
I think that's, I think that's it.
Thanks for having me back.
I miss this, man.
It's fun.
Yeah.
It's fun.
We miss you.
And shooting the shit.
Yeah.
It's good time, right?
Like it.
Everyone's like, why aren't you on more?
It's like, where they found someone even more messed up than I am to feature?
I'm sitting across from.
Oh, no.
That's not the case.
We're not going any more low blows like that.
No more low blowish.
No, really?
Seriously.
No more low blowers?
No, it's a loving ribs now.
Okay.
It's got to be more like a yuck, yuck.
Okay.
Like not below the belt.
Okay.
They're laughing with me, not at me.
Yes.
Blow the belt and he spazes out.
If I could feel it.
Has little Gatim return to life?
He's been getting more and more feeling back, yeah.
Wow, it's been months then.
It was on the slow decline, yeah.
Well, just in time for Key West.
Entertainment my dad, I'm going to bang this broad.
Yeah, will your dad be a good wingman, you think, or would he be a bad wing man?
Yeah, if he comes home and he sees, he comes to your stay and sees a tie on the bedroom door.
Yeah, a sock.
Yeah.
Or an LAD, I scrolling LADCII for 30 minutes.
I think he might be happy.
Oh, I think he'd be very happy.
Yeah.
My boy.
Yeah, I mean, is he cool or he doesn't, he won't cock block you, right?
Like, Dad.
I think unintentionally he might.
Unintentionally.
Yeah.
Oh, man, I can't wait.
I don't think you want you banging anybody on that fucking trip.
No, I think.
Better safe than sorry.
Yeah, I think you better.
Just tell people it's still numb.
Yeah.
I'm not even going to bang my wife to play it safe.
Just tell everybody, let's just get it out there right now.
If interested in, get him, his cock is still numb.
At least until fucking...
Doesn't work.
Until next September.
I'll wake it up when September ends.
