Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:15 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
Starting point is 00:00:49 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?
Starting point is 00:01:08 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.
Starting point is 00:01:22 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.
Starting point is 00:01:31 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?
Starting point is 00:01:48 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
Starting point is 00:01:59 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.
Starting point is 00:02:16 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
Starting point is 00:02:36 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.
Starting point is 00:03:08 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.
Starting point is 00:03:17 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
Starting point is 00:03:39 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.
Starting point is 00:03:57 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.
Starting point is 00:04:13 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.
Starting point is 00:04:26 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,
Starting point is 00:04:42 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
Starting point is 00:05:15 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
Starting point is 00:05:50 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.
Starting point is 00:06:30 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.
Starting point is 00:06:41 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.
Starting point is 00:07:10 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
Starting point is 00:07:30 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
Starting point is 00:08:03 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,
Starting point is 00:08:18 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
Starting point is 00:08:43 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
Starting point is 00:09:23 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
Starting point is 00:10:01 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.
Starting point is 00:10:45 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-.
Starting point is 00:10:59 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.
Starting point is 00:11:17 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.
Starting point is 00:11:40 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.
Starting point is 00:12:27 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.
Starting point is 00:12:42 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
Starting point is 00:13:15 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.
Starting point is 00:13:38 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!
Starting point is 00:13:51 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.
Starting point is 00:14:02 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?

Starting point is 00:15:02 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
Starting point is 00:15:30 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
Starting point is 00:15:47 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.
Starting point is 00:16:20 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,
Starting point is 00:16:36 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?
Starting point is 00:16:57 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
Starting point is 00:17:11 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.
Starting point is 00:17:24 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
Starting point is 00:17:57 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,
Starting point is 00:18:24 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
Starting point is 00:18:56 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.
Starting point is 00:19:14 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

Starting point is 00:49:51 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
Starting point is 00:50:10 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
Starting point is 00:50:37 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.
Starting point is 00:51:06 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?
Starting point is 00:51:35 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,
Starting point is 00:51:52 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.
Starting point is 00:52:03 Bang, bang, bang. Would you get a shotgun? No Loading it's cool loading a shotgun like I hope I hope I hope and I need your help here. Seriously, you know me I know I go through I've gone through changes in my life different personalities different Turn and face the strain Change Change the strain change No, I'm being rich man time may change me I can't change time
Starting point is 00:52:39 That's a really good boy. All right, Peter our boy sound you just made like a pug What you like? You like snart just now. I didn't mean to What? You might, did you just like snort just now? I didn't mean to. Cool. Sorry. You know me, I've gone through different iterations. R.A. Frank, R.D. Frank, Fun Frank.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Frat Frank. Frat Frank, fresh as I'm is Frank. Yeah. You know? If I ever, ever, even as a joke, think it'll be funny to like clean my gun around any of my daughter's boyfriends take that gun and kill me.
Starting point is 00:53:09 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.
Starting point is 00:53:19 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.
Starting point is 00:53:29 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.
Starting point is 00:53:40 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?
Starting point is 00:53:55 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!
Starting point is 00:54:06 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
Starting point is 00:54:27 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?
Starting point is 00:54:49 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
Starting point is 00:55:08 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
Starting point is 00:55:50 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
Starting point is 00:56:25 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.
Starting point is 00:56:54 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.
Starting point is 00:57:21 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
Starting point is 00:57:58 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.
Starting point is 00:58:18 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,
Starting point is 00:58:38 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?
Starting point is 00:58:50 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.
Starting point is 00:59:02 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
Starting point is 00:59:35 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
Starting point is 01:00:15 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
