Welcome back to the basement.
Welcome back to the basement yard.
Don't give me that look.
No, no, no.
I'm trying to figure out your sweatshirt right now.
Is it like it's not to be figured out?
It is to be figured out.
This isn't a puzzle.
It's it's not a puzzle, but it is a trick.
Yours is more of a trick than mine.
Right. Mine is mine is lines, but it's like stripes.
They're like they are interlocking. It's like a zip. No no, but like is yours like supposed to be like two-toned like that or is it just shining shimmering splendid?
No, it's it's like an ombre. I don't know if that's right. Fuck is that what am I hair? Yeah, you know
You know I know I'm married to a woman you think I don't understand what an ombre is. I don't I'll be honest
I think it's just a blend. I think it's just like hair one color to another color a
gradient
Okay, but you don't know what a gradient. I but a gradient is a
a gradient like when it like it progressively like it's like exponential
So you have like a parabola of hair color?
I forgot why you're choosing to make this harder
than it is.
I also definitely did.
No, I-
You remember parabolas?
I do, but I did fail that-
Really?
Geometry?
That quarter.
No, my math, so that was in high school.
Yeah.
And my math averages, I remember were like 88, 92, 61.
Uh oh.
85.
There it goes.
And like the 61 was when parabolas-
Parabolas, I like parabolas.
Sine, cosine.
I was a big parabola guy.
Love sine and cosine waves.
And tangents.
Tangents, you know, but I love parabolas, love exponents.
The way they just kind of go up like a hill.
It was pretty cool.
I didn't fuck with that, but you know what I fucked with?
The TI-83 calculator.
Dude, I was-
Just to do this.
Yo, I broke- I'm gonna, I fucking hacked school, okay?
I figured it out.
You figured school out?
I figured it out.
How'd you figure it out?
What'd you do?
Well, cause I went to baccalaureate
for seven to 10th grade.
And everything that we learned was like a year and a half
ahead of what traditional public schools were learning.
So like what you're referencing,
like all that's like advanced geometry and stuff like that.
I had learned in like seventh going into eighth grade,
like we learned it quickly.
And I-
One second, one second.
If you let me, if you let me, if you let me.
Okay, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.
If you let me.
Tell us Mr. Advanced, Albert Einstein.
First of all, and I was a fucking whiz with that calculator.
I also had games on mine. So they'd be like, what are you doing?
Like I'm doing such hard work. Yes fucking snake and shit like that. It was a snake
I had other games on there though, too
I knew a kid that had fucking like a version of like Super Mario on there and shit like that
What there was yo you could plug some shit in Japanese was he Japanese? He wasn't not Japanese
That's what I'm saying. He could have been Korean could have been Chinese right could have been another part of you know
They're just they're just what's the word they're innovative bro. They're so like video games of do I mean a Nintendo?
It's Japanese baby. That's what I'm saying, but what a Nintendo start off as do you know this?
What do you mean before it was video games? You know you remember what Nintendo was before? Yes? What it was video games, you know, you remember what Nintendo was before? Oh, yes. What? It was socks.
No.
I don't know.
Trading cards.
A lot of people don't know that.
There you go.
Now you're all advanced along with me.
Nintendo made trading cards?
Yeah, they did.
But like in like-
But what was on the cards?
Like, Japanese stuff.
I'm not quite sure.
Oh, okay.
I'm not quite sure.
But, so we learned it all.
So when I left and went to New York York City public school when I went to Bryant I
Was ahead so like I appeared way smarter to my classmates because you had already learned it
So it's like oh now are you doing for so I hacked I hacked the system
So then they were just like whoa wait a sec. How are you? I was like I'm good
I had learned it in two years maybe a year and a half before the hack is go to a school. That's ahead
Leave it. Yeah, and then regress.
Well, I didn't regress because I did one year
in like the, you know, with like the normies.
Well, you regressed academically.
No, because then I went right into-
Repeating math.
I went to write into calculus, bitch.
Okay, so I didn't fucking regress.
I didn't even do that.
I also did the same thing in college to boost my GPA.
That's nice.
I retook, bro, college, the first year of college,
maybe even the first two years of college
is just the last two years of high school all over again.
I wouldn't know.
You're right.
But like, so I remember, did I ever tell you
that I got, I got like recruited
by my school to be a math major?
Explain this.
I, yo, I-
They sat you down?
Yes.
They got math scouts?
I got a letter in the mail because-
Were you good at math?
Dude, I was a math whiz, dude.
Out of high school, I got offered a free ride
to Queens College,
because they had an incredible math teaching program.
Didn't want to do it,
because I didn't want to go sit in a car
and look at this fence and be like, oh my god my life can be something.
Okay. Jokes on me.
Because you sat in a parking lot and smoked cigars and looked at Target.
So I mean, yeah maybe should have went with the fucking math.
Yeah, whatever. You could have worked on a rocket ship or something.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's okay. It's fine. fine But I got every one of my school at college you have like a dedicated mailbox and
One time out of the random I got an email saying like oh you have mail in your mailbox
I was like what the fuck and it was from my school
From the head of the mouth math department. He's like yo come call me. Let's set up a meeting
I want to talk
to you about potential opportunity this is kind of like how Harry got into
Hogwarts like a letter just arrived well that was way more magical than mine
stamped with like that ink mine was from like some random white guy his was from
Dumbledore dude did it have wax like a wax no it was just a regular bro if it
had a wax stamp on it I'm not opening it I'm not keeping it but one of about I think yes, maybe it wasn't Espo someone recently sent us something with a wax stamp on it
I was just like damn. I don't want to touch this. It's probably Espo's wedding invitation might have been
But but wax wax stamp wax stamp cool dude and like the the melting of the wax and then the stamp
Orgasmic mad let me tell you like watching that in movies where there's like I
Also, love watching the guys that dip the wine bottles and in wax and love that and they're like
Yeah, yeah, and sometimes they they get a little deep they got a little dirty
You know a little dirty. I want to shove my hand in boiling wax. I don't want to shove it in boiling why but like
wax I I don't want to shove my hand in boiling wax. I don't want to shove it in boiling wax. But like wax.
I mean I definitely have like put my hand in wax.
But like.
Not full hand.
Dude, someone once gave me a wax.
Oh man, you're gonna hate this.
What, Dildo?
No.
No.
Bro, I don't know.
Why would you go with?
Remember I was in day camp, I was Spiderman. Yes. I remember when you were spider-man. Yeah, so
They went to like one of those places where you can like dip your hand in ice and then dip it immediately in a wax
To make like a like a wax hand mold
And they did the spider-man thing for me and I had it for a long time and then it must have melted
I was like your little hand. It wasn't mine, it was someone else made it for me.
One of our like counselors.
Wow, you were a big time Spider-Man on this campus.
I told you brother, I'm a Spider-Man.
Wow.
But yeah, so he sat me down and he's just like,
listen, you're like, you are clearly like very good at this.
You understand it.
And I do, like I always was really good at math.
This is like a goodwill hunting moment
Yeah, but like not as fun. You know like and definitely not as smart. Let's just
Whoa, have you seen the movie in a long time, but he was just just a smart white kid
I mean, but he was he was solving things because he was a janitor
That's why people thought he was way smarter because he was a janitor
No, he was actually solving problems that like the professors and like because he was cleaning up the professor's room, Joey
That's why because he was a janitor. Yeah, you haven't seen the movie not in a while
But
He was like we would really like to make you like
You could double major or you can be just a math major and I was just like well
What you know asking the questions and then of course I got down to brass tacks. And I was just like, well, you know, asking the questions.
And then of course I got down to brass tacks.
I was like, all right, well,
what are you gonna do for me?
I was gonna ask, like,
what do they get out of you doing that?
I guess it just like,
if there are no major, like,
if there are like offices for different, you know,
curriculums at schools and no one uses them,
they'll just go under, like, then no one one uses them. They'll just go on there
Like then no one will use them and they'll get less funding and shit like that
Like so they want people to do it so they can be like, oh shit. We have people right?
But I said I was like, all right, what are you gonna do for me bitch?
I didn't say the bitch part. You definitely didn't I didn't see that in a very nice way. I did I was just like, all right
Well, like what are you gonna do? And he was just like
We have no money. No one is a math major at this school. Perfect. And I was like, alright
so now you're not getting anybody squeeze like a
Six-pack out of this or something six-pack would have been sick. I'll be honest with you. I would have took it for a six-pack
But I was more into 40s at that point in time makes sense
Why why are we not like why aren't 40s cooler than like why don't people realize how cool a 40 is?
The homeless they know
But yeah, I don't know when's the last time you drank a 40 probably at your house. Yeah underage. Yeah
I can't I can't remember we should do that though. Let's get it Edward 40 hands episode
I know you love tape and I know you love
We should probably I do love tape although it needs to be 40s from like someone should send us beer the fuck
Send Frank there four dollars
Well, what's the last time you bought a 40 they might be more expensive now back then they were like a dollar 50
That's why we were buying they were two dollars actually first of all
That's like a steep the biggest steal. That's why I'm saying like people were talking shit about 40s
I loved them back then bro 40 in 2008. We were underage we could say I had no respect for myself
So that's why I was like, I'm just gonna duck tape
Beard on my hands and drink them and maybe piss your pants right dude I
Know someone that did Edward 40 hands got so drunk that they try to do push-ups with it and the fucking bottle broke
Whoever you know who did that is a fucking idiot
What did they think was going to happen? Oh, they didn't get cut though surprisingly that's shocking
Yeah, I was really shocked by that but well here. We are How are you? How are you doing? I'm good. I'm
doing swell. How are you? Good. You look great. Honestly, you look great too. Thank you so
much. Just two good looking boys that are really benefiting from the world. What was
that? Just what did we just do? I that small talk? I got validation, babe.
Was that small talk?
I've got validation.
What would you grade your small talk?
I'm a great small talker.
But like, where are we?
I will say this.
A to F.
I would say I'm an A. Maybe even an A-.
I don't know anyone that's an A.
That's lower than an A.
That's even A. Maybe an A. That's even an A.
Maybe an A-
I mean you can make an argument.
I could even see being an A+, but right now, my social battery's a little spent right now.
You're pretty good, I'm not gonna lie.
Thanks.
You hate small talk.
I'm not great at it.
You are good at it, you just don't like it.
I'm good at it in certain, if I'm by myself, then I think I'm really good.
Yeah, because most of the small talk you have, they're just lies about yourself.
Uh, no, that also depends where I am.
You were like a scientist.
I don't do that all the time, but it is fun to see how your acting chops are.
Just like, just test it out.
Like if you're at a bar and a person that you don't really care to talk to
anyway is like, Oh, Hey, and you're like, Oh, hi, I'm Kevin. Like you just,. Okay, like if you're at a bar and a person that you don't really care to talk to you Anyway, it's like oh hey and you're like, oh, I'm Kevin like you just you know, like who cares the last time?
I I think I should say last time the only time I've done that was in like Vegas
And it was the one the first year me you Espo like all of us went not like the big crew
yeah, you know the smaller crew and
I was like a 22 year old FBI secret agent named like you know something like Quincy you know Stevenson or something.
You went to, you were 22 and you told people that you worked for the FBI? This kid wants to be Batman so bad.
That's unbelievable stuff.
You know what's funny?
You can't lie about your first name anymore.
You know what's, I know now, now I'm screwed, now people know me.
I know.
But you know what's screwed up?
Is you say he wants to be Batman as if you wouldn't want to be fucking Batman either.
I'd prefer guns.
I would just shoot.
So just be Batman but with a gun aka the Red Hood Jason Todd who you know, Jason Todd
He was the second Batman excuse me the second Robin behind Dick Grayson and right right before Tim Drake
No, not ringing a bell
You don't remember that death in the family comic. I
Stopped listening at Red Robin was that fast food back red hood red
hood red hood but I am I feel a sense of confidence I have received the
validation that I've been looking for quite frankly my whole life and no not
for my dad from a more important person who's that the internet oh got it you
think the internet is a boy or a girl? It's a boy, dude.
Because it's annoying as hell.
It's annoying, it's obnoxious,
people wanna get the fuck,
people are just like, shut up, you idiot.
Oh, I see what you're doing.
It swears it knows everything.
I see what you're doing.
You saved it by saying it.
No, that was my answer the whole fucking time.
Say boy, but then talk negatively about it. Yeah, that's what I- that was my answer the whole fucking time. It's like, say boy, but then talk negatively about it.
Yeah, because it sucks, dude.
Okay.
If the internet was a girl, it'd be way nicer, dude.
WAY nicer!
Are you kidding me?
I was gonna say-
...
Yeah.
What do you- come on.
I think women are generally more nice.
Significantly.
Guys don't know how to be nice.
Because society told us that being nice is weak you fucking pussy
Yeah, but also it's like I don't know I don't know why but like I don't know
I think like and also innately like women just have more compassion
Uh yeah, and you could also blame it because if they feel like they don't be nice that they're gonna get murdered
Back in the day. Yeah back in the now right here right now. What if they're not? Oh, yeah. No, there are times
Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Yeah, it's like well, what did you say? I don't mean to like, you know, I'm not we're gonna do it
Do it. No, no, I just want to I'm not trying to like you are cuz I'm not trying to go overboard with like
Men suck type of things whatever but here's what I will say. Well, can you imagine?
Can you imagine?
Being a woman and going on a first date?
No, I'm carrying.
Oh, are you kidding?
Hell no.
First of all, if I got anxiety, bro, I can't.
I got to be.
I got to be honest with you.
Like, ladies.
How have you ever in your life even considered doing a
blind date with someone? Part of me thinks- ever dude ever! Yo part of me is like what's wrong with you to
be like yeah I'm just gonna go like that's so wild because I mean maybe it's
because I watch too much like murder stuff there's murder stuff out there so
like I just can't, you know,
and I've been in like, you know,
you drive by places in like Ubers in Manhattan
and like a girl and her friend are walking by someplace
and then dudes are just appearing like shadows
and just being like, oh, hey,
and you're like, what is happening?
Yeah, I- I'd be mad scared.
Oh my God.
You ever walk through dudes at a construction site?
Are you kidding me? I walked on on I worked on a construction site, baby
I I so you've whistled. No, I I'm not a cat caller
Actually, no, have you called cats? I'm like when we were teenagers cat call what's okay to cat call?
That's not even what I was asking
That's not even what I was asking. No one was asking you to impersonate each other.
I know, I know.
I'm saying, like when we were teenagers, I don't know if you remember this, but like
when we were teenagers, we would be like at, like let's use Roosevelt Field Mall as an
example.
And if we would see a good looking girl, one of our friends would just go like, hey, oh,
and then like fucking like duck and be terrified.
Would we?
Yeah!
I don't remember that honestly.
It wasn't like, I'm sure I've done that at points in time,
but like never, never like the fucking, you know,
like the cartoon example of like the guy at the hard house,
like listen up sweetie, I can jack hammer something for you.
Yeah, yeah.
What do you think is gonna come out of that?
Also-
Do you think this woman is gonna be like,
I am so impressed with your confidence, you fat fucking slob,
that I am going to stop everything I'm doing to give you my undivided attention?
Also, I'm just- is no one afraid of women?
I'm scared.
They're gonna kill you.
No, I'm scared to be like,
Hi, I can't imagine being like,
you're so beautiful and I would never- Well, when there's the fucking peanut gallery's watching this guy and he's, you know, to be like, hi, I can't imagine being like, you're so beautiful. And I would never do that.
Well, when there's the fucking peanut galleries
watching this guy and he's like, listen,
I'm gonna pull concrete and then I'm gonna see a girl
and you guys watch what I say, okay?
Yeah, I don't know, it's scary.
It's scary.
Bro, going on a first date is-
Too much murder, too much murder.
I couldn't, I couldn't.
I mean, especially now,
we know a lot more about murder now.
I would need eyes, I need I would definitely need like backup
Just like people in like the bushes with like binoculars and stuff like that when we used to spy on our friends going on dates
I would yes that we would follow I'm gonna go meet up with this girl at the park
I'm like, okay cool
I then they leave and then we would take the long way we would follow them and stare at them and then we would
Her if you remember this we would like see them like, then we would do her if you remember this
We would like see them like, you know, like say, you know One of our friends was like walking the girl home or something like that
they would stop at the corner and it looks like they were either gonna like going for a kiss or something and then we would just
walk out into the street and just
Like fucking idiots and just completely I and he just, yeah!
Like fucking idiots. And just completely, I love this story so much
and we've spoken about it before.
I don't remember how true it is,
but it's one of the funniest stories I've ever heard
where we had a kid in our friend group
that walked a girl home and so badly wanted to,
he had a big
crush on her and wanted her to have a crush on him and like allegedly I really
hope it's true he like went into kiss and she like moved out of the way and he
like stumbled forward and like 50 pencils fell out of his back 50 pencils
that's kind of wild that's just being a kid also when you said 50 pencils that's kind of wild that's just being a kid also when you said 50
pencils that did something to me I'm not gonna lie oh like the good pencils like
the nice rubbery erasers this is gonna sound weird and I don't mean to
transition we're making very hard transitions right now but I'm gonna do
it again there is something about an abundance of pencils and batteries that
gets me going.
Like horny going?
Yes and no, like not no.
I gotta be honest with you.
I have a lot of questions
because there are a ton of batteries out there.
I know.
And if you're just doing this fucking show
half mass all the time.
Think about this, think about this, okay?
Your remote doesn't have batteries.
You're like, oh, we gotta order more batteries.
These are the last ones we have.
Then you order a hundred, right? And then you open the box and you're like oh we got to order more batteries these are the last ones we have then you order a hundred right and then you open
the box and you're like I have a hundred batteries like this is gonna last I can
fucking power every do you have the battery daddy or whatever it's called or
like the caddy daddy or whatever fuck are you talking about you know is that a
dildo oh yes well it's a dildo for dads which I guess is just just a regular dildo but it's a giant it looks
like a briefcase and it is just meant for batteries that's fire dude you're
gonna be fucking soaked the minute you see this yeah dude are you and it's like
it has the cutouts just for double A's just for triple A's you could throw C's
in there is it like padding like a gun case? It's see-through dude. You've never seen this thing. Oh, I have seen that
I have my fucking mother-in-law got me one last year and then she didn't realize it didn't come loaded with batteries
So she spent an
absurd amount
Yes, I have seen that dude and it comes with like a little battery tester and then also bro
Tell me you don't like can someone appreciate like when someone would open their
Pencil case and it would just be mad neat. It would be like 15 pencils all perfect. I'm gonna do you one better
I'm gonna do you one better. I'm gonna do you one better when someone would have the
64 pack of Crayola crayons and they would open it up and it was freshly sharpened
It's just and it's just, oh it's just bleachers.
Of fucking awesome crayons.
Oh my god, I love that shit.
And they have all the best colors too.
Yeah.
And you're just looking at it and you're just like,
oh I would eat the fuck out of these crayons.
That's why like, yo there's something crazy about like,
cause everyone likes back to school shopping.
It's sexual for you.
But that, yeah.
I think cause like the first day of school,
when you have kids binder is neat
I open up the and the dividers and the dividers are all right and they're clean
Fucking post-its the little singular post-its that you put in books for books yeah
Joey is gonna be the highlighters hot bro for you don't get me fucking started on whiteout
Don't do not fucking start talking about which one the tape the pen with the squishy that you can do or the or the fucking
The painter let me tell you this right now the pen can go fuck its mother. I hate that stupid pen
Okay, I hate that fucking pen the tape though
I love the tape and of course the little, the swishy-schwash, the painting, mad fun.
Now let me ask you, which of the painting was better?
The one that had the actual brush on the end
or the one that had the sponge, like the cheese?
The fucking triangular sponge.
The cheese, baby, yes!
That's my shit.
Yo, I am so fucking with you.
I hated the fuck out of the tape
because I was just like, who do you think you are? It would it would like kick and it would kick up at the end and then you
had to like push it down with your finger and then you'd get like ink on it
yeah I didn't like that shit the fucking brush dude I'll tell you right now I'd
paint a house with that I would paint do you remember we used to paint our
footballs with it yeah I would and don't even get me started on the smell yeah
whatever chemicals were in whiteout
Bro back in 2004 when I had that whiteout a part of me wanted to paint my nails
I knew everyone would call me a gag or something. I did that for baseball. First of all, I painted my my
Sure catcher. Yeah
What when's the last time you used whiteout?
Bro, mr. Pogra bin's class third grade. I
Don't know. I would love an excuse to have I mean you do babe. Just start writing stuff more
Why don't you just write stuff more?
You have a fucking desk full of pens that you never use and always disappear, right?
Just start writing stuff down like I start writing stuff out. I will I will say this you are not wrong
There is when you walk through like the like three aisles of stationary and target. It's euphoric
Borderline orgasmic. Yeah, and you see all those pens and they're just in their box and then it's like we'll give you a bonus one
Oh my god, and also they have the really expensive pens that have like a diaper on them and you're like Oh, I love that. Oh like the like the point of it comes with like it's got a glue on it like no

I could dude every room if you guys don't know I'm gonna talk it was a big square wooden board
Yeah, that had lines in it and it had like on one side it had like a like a ruler on both sides
And it was raised and the idea is that you put paper into it and then there's a legit
Machete it's a look katana
Attached to this thing and it was on an arm and you would just sis eyes. Yeah, and it would cut
So fucking and it would make this
It was so good you could literally
David Copperfield cut a child in half with this thing, dude.
That's where you went.
Yeah.
Why?
It's a dangerous thing to have in a fucking 4th grade fucking thing.
Like a child, if I laid him down and was like, oh, it's a magic trick, I could cut him in half.
Bro, they were just like, carefully your fingers.
There was a full meat cleaver on this thing.
I have to cut my fingers off now.
There's a shogun sword in the fucking classroom
They're back to Asian, but the Asians are ruling the world
We actually live in an Asian listen Queens, New York was
Flushing Asian. Oh, yeah big Asian also. It smells great over there. It is the best smell
Let me ask you a question. It does smell bad on some blocks. No. There's a lot of garbage.
But that's not the Asians fault. Once you get a sniff of the nuts, I know that sounds weird. God damn the nuts. The nuts smell mad good.
Asian nuts are fucking incredible. Asian street nuts. Unbelievable smelling. It's one of the best smells in the world. Asian street nuts.
Asian street nuts. Unbelievable shit. It is really really good. go to fucking flushing go to Main Street in the main street in Flushing Queens and
Tell me get a whiff of those fucking Asian street nuts and tell me your life isn't different first of all

This is the greatest place on the planet and nuts would hit you in the face right in the fucking face, dude
Right you get punched in the mouth and the nose by nuts
And you're just like this is the greatest place on the planet. It was so good and then tea

It's tapioca.
It sounds miserable and I'm sure it's not.
Tapioca.
But like, I can't be trusted with little balls
and a giant straw and I'll choke.
That's an insane sentence.
Why?
I will choke if I had boba tea
I can't be trusted with little balls in a straw
Hindsight maybe I could have worded that in a better way
That didn't sound
Where'd you go? I think you know boba, but I've never had one a partially because I'm scared to I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-? No, it's a T-boy. I don't know that. Yeah. I don't know. Like a T-boy. Maybe you will be that too. You know, maybe you will.
I don't think it works like that. I'm not gonna like, you know.
Did you see there was some right-wing politician who was like, as a social experiment,
I decided to expose wokeness
and pretended to be trans for three weeks.
That's a long time.
And then he's like,
I found out they were so accepting
and all so willing to call me by my pronouns.
What?
Got them.
And it's like, you exposed nothing.
You have exposed the kindness in people.
Like, fucking got em.
You got wokeness, baby.
I knew people would be accepting.
Yeah.
Now I had no worries about where I went or what I did.
Oh, sounds pretty...
Dude.
This is a new record.
This is unbelievable.
This is an a new record this is unbelievable this is an absolute new
record we had several things to talk about we didn't get to the first one

but Skims, they make men's underwear now, okay?
It's not just Kim Kardashian, it's also for the boys, okay?
I will tell you this very, very clearly.
Tell them what happened to you.
The guys have gotten annoyed at how much I talk about the skins underwear that they kindly sent to me. They are soft
Comfortable dude. Yo, like this is not a guy if they weren't a sponsor. I still would be saying this
Unbelievably they are very comfy and there is like I have to buy 500 pairs now
Yeah, because they are too good for me. Right? Yeah, when you put them on your body and you're just like I'm just like
In place I breathe my everything's breathing. I'll be very honest with you. I also felt more comfortable and confident in them
Yeah, that that's just a me thing that that's a good way of
Cleaning up what you actually said to me that he feels confident in them
Uh, because he said something that we're not gonna say we him. We're not gonna make any assertions about this company
that they can't back up.
But personally I felt good.
Yeah.
That's all I'm gonna say.
Yeah, it was lovely.
So they are great.

And lastly here, we have BetterHelp.

The reason I was laughing so hard is because Greg looked up
the company that sells the fruit jellies
and legit sent them an email, copied me and you on it,
and says, we're interested in buying your company.
Oh, you never know, folks.
You never know.
You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
How much
How how much could they be making I mean dude they could be making billions we don't know I think it's a it's a US-based
company I
Don't think so is the one that he emailed. I just looked it up. Yeah
Yeah, that's what I'm saying like we might we might be we can make it our own we could be like
Frank and Joe's jelly cups Frank and Joe's jelly cups double chocolate
We're gonna give Frank and Joe's jelly cut that was a horrible that was the worst one
I've ever taken I we're gonna give Frank and Joe's jelly cups. Oh, oh
I want him to do one video where he gives it like
14 booms and see how many people actually stick around for all 14 of the booms or just do so many booms that eventually his
Face gets so ready past yeah, he's just like I get this cookie
861 boom
boom
boom
To see if he'll actually commit to it
This is a new record.
Which one?
We haven't talked about anything.
And at this point?
I don't wanna.
I don't wanna either.
Should we shut the lap?
Shut it up.
Fuck you, bitch.
I meant to give it the finger
and then I shot it with a gun.
This shows you where your head is at.
Shooting guns?
What? Are you at. Shooting guns? What?
Are you coming around on guns?
I mean, I've been very vocal that like,
eventually I would like to move to the suburbs,
and I'm gunning up.
You need at least one gun.
I feel like I'm more afraid to live in nice neighborhoods.
Is that weird?
Yeah, because that's where the white freaks
like you guys are.
Well, I feel like that's just like yeah, it's
I like how you're like, yeah
Yeah, I'm like I meant like I feel like that's maybe it's just because of the movies but like that's where people get like
Home invasion stuff. Yeah, I mean home invasions are so like they are they are they this they are nothing really
Yeah, most most like invasions or like crimes like that
happen from people within the family.
So make sure you keep a good relationship with everyone
and cousins and brothers and sisters.
I'm scared because I feel like if I did have a gun
and in the middle of the night I hear someone like rummaging
then I'm like, okay, I have to shoot somebody.
Now I have to use my gun.
But now it gets me thinking though, like what if like someone's setting up like, you know,
Like a surprise party for me or something. I just like kill like my aunt because she's just trying to question
Why would your aunt be in your home in the evening late at night?
Setting up a single banner for a surprise party for you
I'm just saying in the off chance that she's setting up a fucking happy birthday banner, she's gonna get gunned down, bro.
I mean, I gotta say, I'm probably a little closer to having a gun than you are.
And I've kind of grown comfortable with my whole like kitchen towel around the handle of a knife.
So like, I feel like I'm losing that, you know what I mean?
Like I feel more confident with a knife than I would a gun.
Okay. What are you, a pirate. Okay, what are you a pirate?
But what if they have a gun?
Run at them.
Die quicker, is that what you're, is that what you're saying?
They say if the person has a gun run toward them,
if they have a knife run away from them.
It's not a deer, you don't speed up.
You fucking duck, They're gonna shoot.
Yeah, I don't know.
If you run at someone with a gun,
and it's a real gun,
you have to figure they're gonna get so scared they shoot,
even if they don't want to.
Yeah, I don't know, honestly,
and I hope I never find out.
I hope so also.
I hope you never find out.
Yeah, yeah.
Let's just move off this conversation.
Guns, guns.
Bang, bang, bang. Would you get a shotgun? No
Loading it's cool loading a shotgun like

Frankie and I Frank.
Just do it.
I do I love you.
I will accept.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Well, this is a pact here.
This is a pact.
No, no, no.
I just want to tell you something.
I love you.
Yes.
And you're right.
I do know you. Yeah. And I have to say, I have to say.
Just, just, just, just, just.
Sounds like something you do.
I don't think I will.
And I'll tell you why.
I don't, I don't.
Yeah, but being a dad makes you do dumb shit probably.
I know, I know, and I'm scared.
I am scared, I'll be honest.
I'm scared. Like, they'll be walking in,
you're like, pfft.
Dude, I didn't even tell you.
We recently went to a family party,
and there was like a little boy there
and our niece ran up to us and goes,
to Becca and I and she goes,
Ruby said she thinks that boy is cute
and might wanna kiss him.
And I said, where the fuck is this kid?
And I went upstairs and I opened,
like this wasn't like a show, I just-
Wait, who said that to you?
My niece.
Oh, okay.
She's like, she said that he's cute
and she wants to maybe- Pan, snitch that to you? My niece. Oh, okay. She's like, she said that he's cute and she wants to maybe.
Pan, snitch!
Good, honestly.
Yeah.
And I didn't, like, I didn't feel anything.
I just, my body stood up, moved me into the room
and I opened the door and I said, absolutely not.
No, the kid wasn't even in there.
But like, I just wanted to make sure I set the groundwork.
I scared the whole kid, all the kids in the room
No kissing no kissing, bitch
Okay And I I just want to I agree. Yeah, but why I don't know
It just came out it just came out of me. You think you're gonna be like a like a you can't date
No, I I don't think I will be that person. I think I mean you are right now. No
For my three-year-old daughter joey wanted to kiss another boy. I think I will. I mean you are right now. No, for my three year old daughter,
Joey wanted to kiss another boy.
I just said I agreed.
What age does that stop though?
I think honestly around puberty age.
I think that there is a level of.
What is that 12?
12, 13, you know it might be a little younger for girls
but you know like I hope that I am the parent
and Beck and I have had multiple conversations about this
that keep an open line of communication with our kids and instill
responsibility in them and not
Fear and rejection, you know like being like no you're not gonna do it because I'll fucking you
I really don't think I'll be that person. You just kicked a door down. Yeah, a three-year-old Joey
Hey, man, kids are listening
But then my father my father-in-law was down there and he was just like you're gonna have to deal with a lot of that yeah, and I was just like fuck
I wonder how that's gonna be I think you'll take the same route because I see like you have a really good
I would love to do a bad boys to thing with you and just scare a prom date
But not like scared like just kind of just like that was a full scare. He answered the door with a gun joey
Didn't he yeah, but like I wouldn't take it out. I would just have it
No, see now you're becoming what you think I said I would become yeah, but i'm doing it for fun
I'm not doing it because like you think I would be really wanting to shoot this person at my dinner table
No one wants to shoot anyone. I just want to know that you know
With the if you if there is violence there's fucking violence
Yeah, listen if I'm pulling if if one of my
Children's significant others sees a gun that I have it's because they're on the fucking receiving end of it
Let's make that very clear. Okay, that is not going to happen. Yeah, but you know if
I ever become that guy that's just like sit
down and I take a gun out and I just like start cleaning it in front of him I
hope that you would kill me I would let you know okay yeah just please do that
for me and I don't think I'll do that but just in case you never know what
could happen in 15 years if I was there dude I would just try to neutralize the
whole thing like I would act like we're just like, I'm hoping that like our career continues on this
really great path, this trajectory.
And it scares people.
It's like, Oh my God, Ruby's dad is like, he knows evil.
Frank, hold on, hold on.
If our, just to be clear, I don't know if you know the way that people perceive us,
but they're certain we're gay for each other. So I don't know if our, if way that people perceive us, but they're certain we're gay for each other.
So I don't know if our career keeps going the way it is.
I don't think that's intimidating anyone.
They're just gonna be like, those are those two guys,
they're friends and like, they're probably gay or something.
That's probably what, like that's how it's being viewed.
Oh my God, that's Ruby's dad, he's terrified.
We're like, oh my God, that's Ruby's dad.
He often talks about his fucking balls. That's Ruby's dad. He loves hugging his friend
It's gonna be fun it's gonna be fun I do hope that you become that like
Like you're around like I can't say anything crazy. So it's like Joey's gonna step in and be like listen
He can't say anything crazy. Oh, yeah. Yeah, of course. Let me tell you back up
We do good cut back. Yeah, of course like I like the cops. Yeah. Yeah, I
Like the cops. Yeah, like I've thought about that like overly nice
I thought about that and I'm gonna be really really honest with you
I've thought about like I, not that this situation has ever
come up, but like you ever see the movie, the town?
I saw it twice on a Christmas.
Yeah. Okay. On the same day.
It was the same Christmas, Frank. It didn't even go to commercial. It started. I watched
it again.
Okay. That's bad.
Weird, but it's a good movie.
It is. But like, I wonder,
you know that scene where he's just like, listen up brother, we're gonna go hurt somebody,
I need you to not ask any questions.
And he's just like, all right, who's guy we take?
Yeah.
I've wondered if I were to approach you like that,
what your response would be,
because I don't think you'd be like, all right, let's go.
I'm mad in quizzes.
You're very inquisitive.
I would have mad questions.
Like you can't ask me about it. It's like, I'm immediately going toitive. You're very inquisitive. I would have mad questions. Like you can't ask me about it.
It's like, I'm immediately going to ask.
You'd be like, what is going on?
Who is it?
Tell me everything.
Like you would be very inquisitive.
I think you'd be down to ride.
Yeah, but I would be like,
yo, let's just think about a plan here.
Yeah, you'd be just.
Let's approach this.
Let's approach this as a full on business model.
Yeah.
And then Greg would come in.
We have to cover tracks. Yeah, Greg would be like, all like alright, so like this is like the way that we like what's gonna be like the best ROI
It's true. I think the one person in my life that would with no questions asked be like, okay is my brother Chris
Yeah, well, I think yeah, he's a little crazy. Yeah
Yeah, like if I called him right now and said don't ask questions. I need you to come with me to beat somebody up
He's just saying like alright. I think both your brothers would say yeah
I think more Chris than that more Chris than Nick Nick would be down to but he'd have one question Danny too
I think if I called Danny, he'd be like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, Danny would be could they be a little too excited
Probably he'd be like awesome
Prob who in your life do you think could legit like legitimately be like okay
I'd be inquisitive too just so we're clear I'd be very question I'd be we
would probably get into an argument like you're just not gonna say anything
you're not saying anything that's the point have you seen the movie? I don't know. I don't know
Honestly, maybe a med
Yeah, but a med would be like hold on I'm getting wax right now like he was
All you know is a good one Josh yeah, Josh would be Josh. Yeah, that's a really good one. Yeah, Josh
He'd be like Josh would be like Josh would show up in his fucking pads like he would show up in Muay Thai shorts and boxing gloves and be like
Let's go if I told Josh like yo, I'm about to get jumped by these guys
I can use your helmet and he's like I just knocked out my boss
I'm on my way
And then he'd show up beat them up and then beat you up just as consolation too. Yeah
This is fun. Everyone get a kick in the head. There are other people I don't want to name other people that like over our friend group because I don't you know want to like
Expose but I think there are other people too
Like one person that we can think I can think of up top my head that you wouldn't want to mess with I
Don't know oh
Yeah, yeah, he'd be down yes
Yes, I mean I've got I've gotten into fights because of that person when I wasn't I didn't want to get
Yeah, but you know things happen. That's good to know one person like that in your life
And I hope everyone has that person Joey. It's really great new record didn't talk a
Single second about anything we wanted to talk about yeah, we tried. I'll be honest we did we did but we didn't talk a single second about anything we wanted to talk about.
Yeah.
We tried, I'll be honest.
We did.
We did, but we didn't.
