Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome back to the basement. Welcome back to the basement yard. There he is. There I am. What are you doing? Do I do this? Is this the cool thing? What is that hat?
Starting point is 00:00:14 The new era logo. You got a hat of a hat company? Yeah. Yes, I did. Team hat. I mean, to be honest, it was free. They sent it to me. But I do like it.
Starting point is 00:00:25 It's like a British one. I thought it was like New England for a second. It's like a British thing. Because the British... What's British? The hat? I'm not even really that quite sure. Shetland.
Starting point is 00:00:36 What's that? Was that a curse? It sounded like a slur. It sounds like. For someone Scottish? Oh, where you from? Shetland? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:43 You fucking crock. I don't know. I'm still learning. And then it says moon. So this could be from many places. Yeah. But it does say woven in England. So that's cool.
Starting point is 00:00:55 I like it. It's gold. Don't look at me. I'm not asking you about your hat. I know what it is. I didn't see. say anything i didn't say anything how many can i ask how many yankee hats in different colors do you have for what are the colors so brown brown brown black blue and i have a beige one wow that's a good
Starting point is 00:01:14 that's i mean just commit now and make the only hat that you wear i mean it's it's it's a it's i think the best hat i agree and you're from there so you you know you got to take advantage when you can i remember when uh uh remember the song empire state of mind j z alicia alicia Kees. Why did you say her name like that? Alicia Keys? Alicia. Alicia. Okay. Sorry, the word police are out today. Alicia. That's where the syntax grammar police are out today. I forgot about that. But in the song, he says, like, I made a Yankee hat more famous than a Yankee can. Yeah. When that song came out. First of all, that song came out when the Yankees won the World Series. Impeckable timing. Do you think that's true? No. And when that song came out as a
Starting point is 00:02:00 a 17 year old I would actively during that part of the song I'd say like no you didn't you would do that he would boycott and probably just be like I made a yeah well like come back in like change the lyrics up myself yeah you know I just I don't agree with that I think that there was decades of Yankees greats before maybe he did bring it to like hip hop and like the culture of wearing I don't know what how did he have that hat on the cover of an album? Was that? Like, is that a Yankee hat or is it just the black album? Yeah. Isn't that an all black hat? I don't think that he's worn a hat that is in the Yankee head. So it could be back then. I mean, I would hope that he commits. I know that he's like the black
Starting point is 00:02:41 albums like him. It's probably a Yankee hat. I don't remember. I don't remember. It's a great album. That was the last album from Jay Z that I had. The black album? Yeah. It's a good one. Oh, wait. Was the blueprint after that? The blueprint three. Yeah, I can't remember the remember dates of albums, Joey. I can't my, you are. Me and dates are so, we're bad. We're bad. I can't have dates. You're our rap correspondent. I can't. You need to know this.
Starting point is 00:03:04 I don't know dates. I don't know anything. So, oh, we're all wearing hats today. This is a big hat day. Big hat day. We know your hat. You don't need to fucking tell us about it. Just keep bringing up your hat, dude.
Starting point is 00:03:14 Yeah, we get it. Enough with your hat. We get that. We get it and stop talking about it into the microphone so loudly. All you like to do is just keep it going. Talk about your hats. Take the hint, baby. By the way, the other day I realized on my Wikipedia,
Starting point is 00:03:30 it says that I am featured in Santa Gata Studios and the Picky Boys. Did you do that? No, I did because literally in my Wikipedia, it says that I'm featured in the Picky Boys. Oh, that's so funny that you bring that up. First of all, good. I mean, you know, give him a little something. I didn't give him anything. I was wondering if he was like, I slipped to say.
Starting point is 00:03:52 Oh, well, I mean, he definitely, if it's you, if it's you, if it's you that's doing this, Fuck you because someone sent me a screenshot of like what's the Google AI assistant Gemini? Yeah Yeah, and it was like the jeb you know how you like Google a question and it'll be like Gemini gave you an auto Yeah answer it was like Frank Alphersus openly spoke about the fact that he's four foot 10 See now AI is coming back around it's coming back around fucking fucking you because no it's fucking me Yeah you did a couple you did too many jokes no the jokes were on you so AI listen Hear me out he's 410 you've seen the pictures of him
Starting point is 00:04:28 look at you that's 410 unfortunately AI is never wrong right all right no I don't let's not open that can of work but yeah
Starting point is 00:04:39 so are you controlling our Wikipedia pages I didn't even know I wanted to learn how to do that for my own reasons and I couldn't figure it out I think you can just go and you can create an account but I know that one specifically
Starting point is 00:04:51 like I made the mistake of posting about it because you could could go in and like change things yeah at like to a regular page like whatever not that i'm ill right ill regular come on now irregular um but i made a video because someone put like you know how you have a picture and you under it you like describe it yeah it says joe sanagado is four or like five foot two or some shit like that so i'm so i made a ticot and i was like who did this and then people kept going in and making it shorter and shorter yeah so then Wikipedia locks it and
Starting point is 00:05:25 they're like, you know, clearly there's a lot of traffic going to this thing. So they lock it. So now it says, I'm featured in the piggy boys and I can't change it. So we're just stuck with that? Yeah, that happens a lot with like athletes. Like if someone will like, you know, if fucking Terrell Suggs, like, sacks, Dak Prescott a ton. I know different times.
Starting point is 00:05:44 I know. I know. I know. I know. I know there are different times. 15 years. Not in the league. I know.
Starting point is 00:05:50 I know. I know. I know. I know. I'm just saying like they'll put like, you know, Dak Prescott. mother's name this father's name Terell Sugg. Yeah, yeah. They're like they do shit like that. So I could see why they have to lock it
Starting point is 00:06:01 at a certain point. I just noticed that the other day I was laughing though. By the way, Spotify Raps just dropped and you posted on your story that your listening age, which my listening age was 25. I don't know if I should be happy about that, but it is what it is. Yours is 83? Yeah, that's very, very high, brother. What are you listening to? The storming of Normandy? What are you listening to?
Starting point is 00:06:25 Glenn Miller Band. I haven't seen someone with a higher age. I'm really embarrassed. Yeah, no, and I think about it. I mean, how much higher could you get that's available on music? I don't know. You're just listening to the Johnny Carson show on Spotify? Actually, probably younger.
Starting point is 00:06:39 Johnny Carson was popular in the 70s, so. It's a lot of Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. So then I get that. Because I listen to that a lot of Dean Martin? Yeah. What are you doing over there? What was it? Just chilling.
Starting point is 00:06:52 With like a cigar and a smoking jacket? It's the best time to do. do it, isn't it? That used to honestly, that used to be my playlist when I would write papers in college and grad school is it was all Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. Because there's something about their voice is just like, get it on the paper. You know, by anyone following me? They're like sexually getting you to write? Get it on the paper. Sexually is not what I said at all. Get it on the paper, Frank. And we'll rub your back for you. No, no, no one. Dean Martin had his hands far You're like, oh, Frankie, blue eyes.
Starting point is 00:07:26 You're writing your paper. No, I used to sit there with a, I remember my mom when I was in grad school, I was 21. Let's make that abundantly clear. Who cares? Not me. What did that have to? My mom got me a crate, literally a crate of two buck chuck. Do you guys remember two buck chuck?
Starting point is 00:07:46 No. A crate of two bucks chuck. It sounds like Crash Banachoo. What is that? Basically. It was the like award-winning wine from Trader Joe. but they were two dollars. It was like,
Starting point is 00:07:56 this wine won all the awards at the wine party. Yeah. And there were $2 a bottle. So my mom got me like a crate for like $80. And I would sit there. Literally is that 40 bottles? Yeah. And I would sit there.
Starting point is 00:08:13 How would that ever be necessary? I was probably having a bit of a problem at the time. Yes, Anne. How long did it take it to get through that crate? A semester. Oh. That's not that bad. I mean, when you're...
Starting point is 00:08:25 Yes, it is. No, it's not, when you're 22 years old and in prime drinking time, that's the amount of... 40 bottles of wine in four months? Four months? Four months? Six months. He didn't go to college. He did, but he went to big dick college. That's where he went.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Did you? I did a... No. I don't think that's that bad. The last week in August is when it started. And the second week in December is when it finished. So four months. I mean, you could go through four bottles in a weekend as a young Frankie.
Starting point is 00:08:58 That's what I'm saying. Like, I was, when I was... Every weekend, though? No. No, but some weekends are, some weeks, it's like casually with writing a paper. Some, it's like three, four bottles in a weekend. Like, it all fucking six, sevens out. Wow.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Were you just the wine guy then? I was not. You drank a wine for the whole semester. I was not. I did drink, like, you know, like Natty Lights and Bush Lights and, yeah. You know, Milwaukee's best. Old Mill Hockey Yeah, I didn't have like high taste
Starting point is 00:09:27 But I would The point I was getting at Is I'd open up a bottle of two buck chuck Yeah I'd throw on some Frank Sinatra You know Isles of Capri You know what I'm saying
Starting point is 00:09:37 Summer wind Yeah I like this kind of music In like the Christmas time Kind of like that's when it feels Like it definitely in the winter But in the summer is crazy I'm in the summer babe
Starting point is 00:09:50 Frank Sinatra in the summer to me is bananas But it's kind of Kind of like flowy Bossanova shirt open, drinking your hand, like... What's Bossanova? It's like a style of music. I don't know what it is, right? What was it? Boston Nova.
Starting point is 00:10:05 Oh, Boston Nova? No, Bossa Nova. Yeah. Is that just cool? Yeah, I don't... I didn't make it. Let's make that very clear. What does it mean?
Starting point is 00:10:14 I didn't name it, but there's something like kind of like hanging at the beach. I guess. I mean, I just don't picture it in that way. I picture it in, like, a, you know, pajamas around the fire and it's cold out kind of thing. Like, maybe a little glass of whiskey. That's like, somewhere. I was about to say, I listened to that as well. I think there's an argument that that might be the best song ever made.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Beyond the sea is the best song ever made. It's a great argument. I think there's an argument for it. I don't think that there's an argument for it at all. I mean, you know what. Whatever. You can have it if you want. I wouldn't put it even in.
Starting point is 00:10:53 my top 50. Oh, come on. Fifty, brother. Come on. 50. It's just, I was thinking that and then you sung it. I'm like, wow. But that's a great, listen to what he's saying. Beyond the sea. Like, it's like an outside song. Like, yes, don't get me wrong. I love them fireside. But like, you know, there's something about like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, you know, just like a little like outside. That's kind of wild, though. That's like all you listen to. Yeah. Your listening age being 83 is fucking crazy. I'll be honest. that it shocked me. What was your top song? My top song was actually father figure John Bellion. That was your top song? That was my top song. Oh, wow. So then how the hell does that
Starting point is 00:11:33 for you to end? So you must have listened to so much Franks and I don't know. You beat out your top song. Dude, I don't know. That they were like, listen. That's crazy. That must have been a fluke. He must have passed out an accidently listened to John Bellion for five hours. So my top songs are father figure club husband, T. Payne. Obviously that was. That just came out like a month ago. That was playing a lot. What? And then Volare, Valore, right, D. Martin, and then beyond the sea. Valare? Valore. Valore. Yeah. I mean, do you spend your time in a delicatessen? What the fuck are you going? This is such an interesting mix of songs. All right, so, all right. So give us your top 10 songs. It only does five. What does that mean? It only does five. Yeah. Oh, okay. Well, I got mine on Apple music.
Starting point is 00:12:20 Yeah, what was yours? And my top 10 songs. Do you have top? Artists? I do have top artists. So my top artists, it's basically just four artists, but it's just like they're categorized in different ways. So my top artist is Billy Joel. Uh-huh. Big Billy Joel guy. I watched a documentary, crushed it. I've been crushing to Billy Joel. Okay. Number two, four, and five are, oh, yeah, number two, four and five are all Hamilton-related. So anytime there's music going, like, happening around you. Like, there's an 80% chance at Tamilton. Yeah. That's great. Well, four out of my 10, so 40% chance. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:01 And then the other, oh, Ozzy Osbourne was on there, coming in at number three. RIP Ozzy. You got to put, you know, send him out on his shield or whatever. On his chariot riding high. And then the others were all K-pop demon hunters related. Nice. Because of the kids. Yeah, you got to.
Starting point is 00:13:19 I don't hate that music. Right. But I also don't listen to it in my own time. Right. You know, but my number, so wait, your number one song was father figure by John Belly. What was your number one song? Oh, let me guess. Let me guess.
Starting point is 00:13:30 It's fucking a white man with a beard who is vegan. Wow. And I mean, the crowd goes wild. And we're going to have to call the police. People are rioting. Yeah, yeah. No, my top song was Olive Tree by Quinn 92. What's wrong with that?
Starting point is 00:13:53 He's just his face just like morphed. Yeah, it's a song that he dropped this year called Olive Tree. Oh, for someone that hates olives. I know it probably has... The song is... I know it probably has nothing to do with Olive. I'm not tasting olives while I'm listening to the song. Hear me out.
Starting point is 00:14:09 But that's called synesthesia, buddy. People have that. Sure. But what you're describing. I know what you're saying. I'm just saying like, imagine if you were listening to Olive Tree with a cup of olives in your hand. That would be kind of nice. And if you were... were listening to Volare while chowing down on a fucking canoli or something.
Starting point is 00:14:27 My top song, and it's not, I guess it's, I have 561 top total songs that I listen to. My top song was Yakko's World from Animaniac. I don't even know what that is. You do. You know where he does all the countries of the world? Sing it. He? Yaco.
Starting point is 00:14:49 One of the Warner Brothers from the Animaniacs. Is that one of the, like the little. Water Tower. The little like cats or whatever? Yeah. I mean, don't, please don't do this thing where you're like,
Starting point is 00:14:58 what are, animaniacs, what do they, you know who the fly they are. I, I spend 25 years. Like, I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:15:05 30. You know the song, I'm saying. Yeah, United States, Canada, Mexico, Panama, Haiti, Jamaica, Peru, Republic, Dominican,
Starting point is 00:15:10 Cuba, Caribbean, Greenland, Salvador, too. Come on. I'm not going to do the whole song. I can. Let's make that very clear.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Why is it your top? They just list countries? Yeah. Because I was trying to learn it. For why? for me just to get it's every country in the world
Starting point is 00:15:27 well it was in 1993 when the song came when the show came out I think some of these countries either no longer exist or they are now one country or something but
Starting point is 00:15:37 I set a goal for myself a little challenge to test my discipline yeah and I did it so what are you going to do in 2026 what's the big thing
Starting point is 00:15:52 for 26 The sky's the limit My second biggest song is golden Duh Yeah, it's got to be I mean again, it's with the kids Mama I'm coming home Ozzy Osbourne
Starting point is 00:16:05 Great song My shot from Hamilton And then strategy from From Huntrix From what? Huntricks What's that? K-pop Demon Hunter
Starting point is 00:16:13 Oh, okay I'm trying to think if there's any I haven't really gotten into K-Tupac Demon Hunter I've never got into that If you watch it You'll be on board. Knowing you, I think you'll really enjoy it. I'm sure I would. I mean, everyone sings
Starting point is 00:16:28 its praises. I just haven't, like, I haven't seen it. I think Joey would be a soda pop. He'd be a Saja boy. You know what I'm saying. Massage? No, a Saja boy. Saja boy? Yeah. I don't know what that means. You'll be happy about this. There is a hip-hop song in my top 10. What year? It's the International Players Anthem, UGK. That is like the Frank song. That song is... You love that song. That might be one of the greatest
Starting point is 00:16:56 hip-hop songs of all time. I'll give you that. There's different genres? Yeah, they are different genres. I feel like your age would have been pretty high if it wasn't for the demon... Certainly. The demon hunters really dragging you down there.
Starting point is 00:17:08 I mean, well, he's got this going on. Yeah. You know, so he's probably like really old and really young. Yeah. So, he'd probably be 50. So, I mean... Still 30 years off. I mean, you can make the argument.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Is Hamilton old? Have you been to a show? That's not a part of the question. When was, wasn't it from like... It came like 2015. It's like 10 years old. Isn't that from the 1700s? I would make it.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Hamilton, the person, is from the 1700. I don't think that the people who enjoy Hamilton, an overwhelming majority of them, are like under 30. Yeah, I mean, I would think I would like this to be closer to my actual age. Right. I think if we're looking at it, the Ozzy Osbourne and Billy Joel put me up there. Yeah. But everything else keeps me pretty where I am. Right.
Starting point is 00:17:53 I would say that Hamilton and Broadway for the most part is probably like, you know, like I'm sure there's younger people that enjoy that. I mean, I enjoy it too, but it feels like a middle-aged type of thing. I think it depends on the show. Now, if I'm singing stuff from fucking Hello Dolly, I could understand why. I don't know what that is. It's a show. Dolly Parton?
Starting point is 00:18:12 Oh, I don't know. I've never seen it. Got it. Oklahoma. Never seen that one either, but I thought you'd know it. That's an older crowd because it's an older show. but I think Hamilton is relatively younger Maybe
Starting point is 00:18:25 You don't think so? Where do you sit with this? Barbara Streisand I'm sorry, one more time How was that an answer to his question? That's the Hello Dolly Barbara Streisand? Oh, Barbara.
Starting point is 00:18:36 Barbarra. Actually, I think she spelled barbara Because Barbara is Barbara But she's barbara You're right I think she's barbra Yeah, something like that But when I saw her name
Starting point is 00:18:49 I was like, that's not how you spell Barbara but she spells it Barbara Which is like to me the correct way But musicals I like musicals What's your favorite musical? Wicked probably I've seen it four times
Starting point is 00:19:01 I just saw Wicked yesterday Oh that's right You went to the movies Went to Alamo Draft House How was the movie theater going experience It was cool I mean they You know
Starting point is 00:19:15 I had a beer Alamo Draft House doesn't count As a movie theater Why Why? I mean, you're sitting there in a theater watching a movie. If anything, they count more than movie, like, as a movie theater because they're, like, very into, like, indie films and, like, putting, showcasing stuff that wouldn't otherwise get showcased. Yeah, when I walked in, there was a lot of posters of things I've never seen before in my life. But so wicked, I thought it was good.
Starting point is 00:19:39 I saw a lot of people online being like, this movie sucks. This is kind of blah, blah, blah. I thought it was, I thought it was good for what it was. I mean. Arivo can sing, dude. Bro, Cynthia Rievo can sing her fucking ass off. Also, Ariana Grande can also sing her ass off. And I remember, I was watching the movie.
Starting point is 00:19:58 He started laughing because I had this feeling of like, wow, I'm so happy for her. Who's this? For Ariana Grande. That's that parissocial relationship that you were talking about. Well, there's been interviews of her, like, when she was younger, being like, all she's wanted to do was, like, do wicked. And then she ends up doing it. And she's in the movie. And I'm like, this is a big moment.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Absolutely. To be in this thing. Like, you know, like, Wicked and the Wizard of Oz is like a giant cultural thing. So for her to actually be in the movie, I was like, I'm so happy for her. And then I was like, what am I doing? Yeah, that is a bit, that is a bit. But it was good. I mean, like, she, after I saw it, because I haven't seen the second one yet, after I saw the first one, I was like, you know, she really is like just has natural talent for like seemingly anything she does.
Starting point is 00:20:41 Yeah. I guess the only two things I've seen her do are seeing an act. So those are big ones. Those are very big ones. Yeah. She's also great on S&L. And, like, her appearances on SNL. She's been really, really good.
Starting point is 00:20:52 Yeah. But it was good. I liked it. I thought it was cool. Fucking four good, dude. That song is, oh, fucking slapper. Yeah, I'll probably, not that I'm, like, boycotting it, but, like, I don't know if the second part of Wicked. I heard that it's not as strong as the first part.
Starting point is 00:21:08 I honestly don't see that. There's some other stuff coming out. You should, Joey, you should go to the movies once a month, and you should let me pick what you go see. Why can't I live my life? Because it's not how this works. You can go to the movie. You go. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:24 But let me pick your movie. But I don't even enjoy movies in the same way that you do. I think you should go back this weekend and go see Five Nights of Freddy's too. Oh, I have no interest in seeing that. Why not? You're not a Fnaf guy? No, I mean, I played the game. That's the game.
Starting point is 00:21:41 They made a movie now? He did play. I made two movies. Spoiler, the fucking bears kill. Well, there's a bear. There's a fox. there's a cupcake, there's a duck. They all kill. There's a, what else is there? There's an alligator.
Starting point is 00:21:52 Chicken. Chicken. Well, I thought I said duck. I guess Chica is technically a chicken. It could be a duck. Could be, yeah, I'm not really that sure. I'm not really into movies like that. Scary ones? No, just in general. Like, I mean, I, I'm more into TV shows than I am movies. Was that the first time you've had an alcoholic drink at a movie theater? Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 00:22:13 When else am I going to drink at a movie theater? No, mind. Oh, you sneak it in? Oh, I'm going to sneak in vodka? Here's the big bad guy. Yeah, like the big bad guy. Instead of going and buying a $12 drink, you have to sneak in and be a criminal.
Starting point is 00:22:27 No, you still buy that as well. Oh, so you're doing double take. No, I've never had an alcoholic drink at that thing. I just had a beer because I was like, you know, well, a little better. They had it. I was like, I'm not going to order nothing. Where I have my draft house is what you come for.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Here's what, here's the only way I would bring a drink into a movie theater. is if it could be like the good old days of like high school when you just put vodka in a coke bottle that's when you would do it that's disgusting you know what I'm saying like there's something about like not knowing how to mix drinks that makes it taste better maybe it's just a nostalgia part of me but like I think it's been disgusting I also never did that
Starting point is 00:23:08 like I never put vodka in a water bottle and just like drank a little bit of just raw vodka dude what gross the lines waiting to get into Remy Teen Night that's what everyone did they passed around a Poland spring bottle filled with all the way alcohol I never did that dude I mean we would go to clubs but
Starting point is 00:23:27 I would just get hammered at the like the pre and then I'd be good I'd be online freezing and kind of like I'm warm because my heart rate's one point I did but if I had a fake ID I would have used it in those places yeah I would have what
Starting point is 00:23:43 that shit what at the club yeah I've never ordered a drink at a club Like when at that time when we were clubbing Yeah, yeah, yeah I never did that Oh, I remember the first drink I ever ordered at a club What was it? I thought I was a fucking genius by the way
Starting point is 00:23:58 This should be good This is when this drink in particular was huge Yeah I went to D, well, it wasn't DNA at the time It was Studio 34 Oh, okay And it was tequila
Starting point is 00:24:13 Patron Silver Sprite No ice Fill to the top That's what you said And you were probably 17 Yeah Yeah it was
Starting point is 00:24:27 You said Patron You remember when you thought Petron was like The fucking Bro Like best Most expensive thing in the world
Starting point is 00:24:33 I'm gonna blow your mind Do you remember Nuvo? No Look up Nouveau It was like the pink bottle it was like after like
Starting point is 00:24:43 there was like a falling out with crystal because remember crystal was like the liquor that people talked about and then they were like Nuvo oh shit do you remember this shit what's the other one hypnotic hypnotic is disgusting
Starting point is 00:24:57 it was never as big as Nouveau 15% alcohol it was it was basically like that's wine baby yeah it was like rosé in a bottle this looks like shampoo yeah it does yeah honestly it looks delicious when it's like bright color
Starting point is 00:25:11 like that. I want it. I'm in. I want it. What would you do with this? I wouldn't get it, but I'm saying like, there was like, when we were growing up, there was always like the cool alcohol. Yeah. And it was always like, first it was Crystal, then it was Petron. Do you know hypnotic? I do. It looks very cool. Yeah, it does.
Starting point is 00:25:27 Hypnotic looks cool. Remember Hypnotic and Hennessy? Incredible Hall. Of course. You know? But, yeah, I thought I was the coolest kid in the world. Meanwhile, I was over there being like, let me get a red bull vodka. And I was just like, I'm sorry. I don't mean. I don't mean to trigger you, but...
Starting point is 00:25:43 Hypnotic. Red Bull and vodka, and this is not a diss to Red Bull or a diss to Mr. Vodka. Yeah. Not a good combination. Oh, man. I think that it gets the job done. Might be the best. If you're exhausted and you get in there and you're like, all right, I still want to go, but I'm really struggling.
Starting point is 00:26:02 You do one? You're fucking sad. Just do Coke, dude. Wrong. Just do Coke at that point. You're going to go into the club tired? I mean, don't do drugs, but like... That's literally the opposite to what you said.
Starting point is 00:26:16 Don't, don't. I also don't think I even have it in me to be able to do that. Yeah, neither do I. Hence why I haven't. I mean, I've seen you snort Coca-Cola. Okay, you can get stuff up there is my mind. Of course, I'm saying like, there's more to life than... When I started saying that, your eyes lit up like this.
Starting point is 00:26:32 Because I was like, what is he going to say? I have, to be very clear. Yeah, I have never done any drug. Right. We are... And that's you being fucking off. I'm being, yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:26:43 However, right. If someone were to come to me and be like, I need to wake up, so I'm going to have a Red Bull and vodka. I'd be like, dude, just do drugs. But I don't do drugs either. I know. So I'm doing the next best thing. I just, a Red Bull and Vodka to me is so like, I just, I just think like there's a very specific clientele that has it.
Starting point is 00:27:03 What does that mean? Psychopats. I mean, I've done it. And it works. And you have it. That doesn't help me. But. But, you know, it gets a job done.
Starting point is 00:27:14 But yeah, I thought it was a fucking genius. What was it again? It was a patron silver, sprite to the top, no ice. Because I was like, oh, I'm basically getting a cup of patron. At least a half cup of Patron. You told them to fill it to the top? Yeah. Are you even allowed to say that?
Starting point is 00:27:30 And you're right. It was warm, brother. It was warm and gross. Oh, yeah. Why know I? Oh, because you wanted all. I thought I was getting more alcohol. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:39 Gotcha, yeah. This was before. Fill it up to the top. That means that they put the same amount of alcohol. I just filled it in spite. Yeah, absolutely. That's so good. I mean, it was a pretty shitty club that let,
Starting point is 00:27:50 and kids underage all the time. Yeah. So, like, they might have. I don't even, I still to this day kind of have a difficult time with like, what drink do I order at a place that doesn't have a menu, like if you're going to get a cocktail. Because I'm always just like margarita, but like I don't want that all the time because it's like so burny.
Starting point is 00:28:08 You know, like the lime is so like, it gives you a burn. I was like, burning. Who's burning? No. I just meant like, you know what I mean? It's so like sometimes it's too crazy. Next, you should have like a like a rolodex of like drinks you want to try that are like standard drinks. I'm not saying go in there and be like, let me get a, you know, a green screen double carpet.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Well, I, there was one time that I went to a, this was when I was probably 24 years old. And I wasn't really into cocktails at this time. And I went to this restaurant that when I walked in, it seems. pretty fancy and I guess we were there a little early and they were like you can go to the bar and order a drink and just wait for your table I was like all right cool so I go to the bar but I'm like looking around and everyone's like drinking out of martini glasses but I don't like martini and you know kind of this thing and I'm like I don't know what because the only drink that I knew was a jack and coke and I was like I can't order that here yeah it's not the right place
Starting point is 00:29:03 it's not like I just I just can't be like you jack and coke do it up like fucking yeah it doesn't it doesn't it doesn't work a jack and coke like when you're young, you're like, yo, that's like a grown drink. And then you get grown and you're like, this is for children. Yeah. It was not.
Starting point is 00:29:20 I'm with you. There is, I do believe there's a certain etiquette behind getting certain drinks. Like, you can't get a jack and coke at like a nice restaurant. There's like an in between too because there's places that like I would order a cocktail. But I wouldn't order it because like there's a cocktail called the last word that I really like. But I wouldn't order that at every place.
Starting point is 00:29:41 You would order that at a cocktail place. You know what I mean? I mean, I think that there are certain cocktails that are like classic that everyone should know how to make that you can order wherever you go. Yeah, I guess. I don't know. Like, I don't think it speaks about the, like, the cocktail. It speaks more about the person, like, if they make it well.
Starting point is 00:30:00 It's less about the cock. It's less about the cock, more about the tail. You know what I'm saying? So, like, you could get a Manhattan or you could get a, you know, old-fashioned. Manhattan. Yeah. I'll be right with this kid. His listening age, they're ordering Manhattan's. Manhattan's are delicious, Joey. No. Old fashions, delicious. I like old fashions. Manhattan's. What was that place that did? Uncle Jacks? Is that still there in Astoria? No. I haven't been
Starting point is 00:30:26 over in that way in a while. Did you see the Pomeroy? It was just like, come on in. Did there? Oh, I did see that. They posted our clip and they were just like, we got a cold one for you. Yeah, yeah. Very cool. I've been to the Pomeroy in a minute. Oh, fuck. But like, they used to do an old fashion, but they would smoke the glass. So it was like a smoky old fashion. If you smoke my drink, I'm telling you right now, they'll smoke your cock. No, no, no, go. No. There was a place on Dittmore's that's not there anymore, but on their menu, I went there one time. It was like a new restaurant at the time, and they had a bone marrow old fashion. Like, come on. What? That's getting a little out The bone was like cold, so they acted as kind of like the ice cube, and they put that shit in the cup, and then they did the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:31:18 I was like, it's pretty cool. I'm not, when it's like food like that, like if they had like a chicken wing spritzer, you would get that. I mean, one of, I had a great drink and it was a Shishito pepper margarita. Peppers are different. Peppers are different. That's a vegetable. I'm talking like bone marrow is like. It's a meat.
Starting point is 00:31:36 It's meat adjacent. It's meat adjacent. It's a ligament. Do they have, like, buffalo chicken alcohol? I pray every day that they don't. That sounds disgusting. It sounds like something you guys drink. I don't want to look it up because I'll buy it.
Starting point is 00:31:52 It does sound like something you would, you know, drink and throw up. If they did, I'll hear me out. I love Frank's Red Hot. Okay. What if they, because everyone's looking, like, we're finally coming back around. Joey, I don't know if you know this. Back in the day, companies used to be a lot more playful with their branding. It's becoming like you just say the same things.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Hear me out. What if insert company more playful, here's my horrible idea. What if, as we're coming back around to that place where companies are becoming more playful, Frank's Red Hot, partners with a vodka company and they make a buffalo flavored vodka and the challenge, because you love alcohol challenges, you love it, you love it. I don't. If the challenge is a buffalo flavored vodka mixed with a chaser of blue cheese. Oh, my God. That probably would offset the burn. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:32:52 This could be a billion dollar idea. Now we're getting ahead of ourselves. This could be an absolute billion. Bro, a viral trend. I mean, I'm pretty sure there's spicy, there is spicy like alcohol. I know there's spicy alcohol. I've had spicy alcohol. I'm saying, though, like.
Starting point is 00:33:05 There's an easy way to stop this. Seeing if it exists. Yeah. Oh, perfect. They can partner with Buffalo Trace. Yeah. So Frank's Red Hot partners with Buffalo Trace. God.
Starting point is 00:33:18 And they make the Buffalo. It doesn't exist. Dude. It's fine. Dude. No. No, it doesn't exist. You know what?
Starting point is 00:33:29 Instead of all of these ideas, instead, why doesn't everyone who's listening just have a nice Happy Thursday. Okay. That's a happy Thursday. That's a really good point. Happy Thursday, guys, these are, and yes, we are getting into the sponsors right now with Happy Thursday.
Starting point is 00:33:50 But happy Thursday, these are great, okay? These are spiked refreshers, okay? Because they're spiked, you've got to be 21. There's some alcohol in here. How much? 4.4%. That's a good little middle ground right there.
Starting point is 00:34:02 But they have 4.4% alcohol and they're bubble-free. So it doesn't get you, you know, anything. too crazy going on in here. It doesn't get you all bloated.

Starting point is 00:46:15 through the wall not as a bit not as like let me spruce this up and make this funny. I'm not kidding. If I live the rest of my life and you asked me to do one of those things or eat a spoon of fucking mustard, I think I found something I hate more than mustard. Wow. Wow. So that means we got to do more of them. No, I mean you may not say that no, no, I won't be doing either of them. Let's make that abundantly clear. That sucks. That is so
Starting point is 00:46:44 sucky. Johnny whoop. I did it. Yeah. Fuck you. You. You smug, bastard. And whoever the hell made this up. Well, him, me, not me. Me small. I did also think it was a gay thing, if I'm being really honest. Yeah, it wasn't like Johnny. Because you were just like, this is how you finish.
Starting point is 00:47:02 And then my response would be like, so I finish on Johnny. And he was like, whoa! That's what I thought it was. One of those schoolyard got you gay things, you know? Got you gay. That's what I thought it was. Dead to rights gay. Dead to rights, dick.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Dick to rights. we've exercised that a little bit too much just something I saw God I hate those things so much I know I mean there's that other one that you did one time where it's just like whoop
Starting point is 00:47:30 whoop oh it's like finger stuff well Joe you have done finger stuff before on camera there was like yeah there's one I've seen there was this one guy that was like here's how to test your brain and I would do them and be like I'm literally my shit is not working correctly well that's why I like to
Starting point is 00:47:46 like test my discipline and learn Yako's world from the animaniacs to really test how disciplined I am. That's how. That's how. I mean, it's cool that you choose to do that because I really do think that's like a unique experience. Like, I don't think anyone else is testing their discipline in that way. Wow, wait a second.
Starting point is 00:48:05 You know what? You kind of gave me something there. So I mean, I'm serious. I am one of one. Yeah. Like I did that thing. No one else has done that, but me. Except maybe the voice actor that did it.
Starting point is 00:48:17 for the show. I'm sure people have memorized that before, but not for the intention that you are. One of one. One of one. You kind of made me feel better about myself there. I wasn't trying to put you down. I agree. One of one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Yeah. One, one and one. End the show. Also, this? You fucking marry Kate and Ashley on a box set of a VHS cover. Who does this still? Fold their arm. I know we've done in pictures a lot.
Starting point is 00:48:50 Human beings? Yeah, but like, I, as like a gotcha thing. I mean. You know, it's like a, hmm, it seems like I've got you cornered. Very anime. Very, not just anime, but like, it's like 80s movie school bully. You know what I mean? It's like, well, you have lunch money.
Starting point is 00:49:08 Guess who's hungry? I love to give me your lunch money thing. And in movies, it was like they would hold them upside down and shake it out of their pockets. I don't know what pants these kids were wearing You could hold me upside down And shakes me for hours Nothing's coming out of my pocket That's what I mean
Starting point is 00:49:23 Like what are we talking about here Did you guys have lunch money? Yeah Growing up yeah When we were like younger Yeah I don't But like it wasn't like a They gave me cash
Starting point is 00:49:35 Like it was like an envelope That we like gave our teacher And the teacher would give it Like for whoever needed it Yeah I mean now we're thinking back Like I don't remember I mean we definitely had cash When it was pretzel day
Starting point is 00:49:46 Well yeah that but we did we give we didn't pay cash i didn't so my oh i asked my mom ahead of time i asked my mom about this recently because i was like i never remember paying and she's like it we paid but i would because she was always close with all the school teachers and all the schools oh nepotism sure she would pay them directly like she would go and like give it like oh this is for frankie today i thought that like there would be these payments like i vaguely remember handing an envelope of money and then they would like mark your name so that they knew like you would go on that line or something why do and you know like they even still do this a little bit to kids why give kids
Starting point is 00:50:28 that much responsibility with something like we've had to for like our kids school like they had the holiday shops around this time of the year where you know it's like you know you can you know buy something for your whole family and it's like a scholastic book fair amount of stuff but like it's like send your kids in with cash like why hasn't these schools like set up up something where it's like I can like load it onto my kids account and they use it that way. Yeah, I don't know. But I mean, I think also it was like an income thing because I think some people got free lunch. Yes, correct. It was. But I'm saying like giving your seven year old a fucking envelope of money and be like, go give this to your teacher. Yeah, I don't know. I would be like,
Starting point is 00:51:10 no. I think that's why my mom didn't let me because I'd just take it and go to sip surf and play. Yeah. Yeah, I think it was just like, I think that's what it was. It's like an envelope you hand it to your teacher, and she marked her name, and then you're good. But there were some children that I guess their families were below a certain amount of income, so they got free lunch. But, you know, I think my, well, my mom didn't work in the school at that time, but she worked in a school.
Starting point is 00:51:37 And my dad was a fireman, so. Did you have to pay? Well, we know someone didn't have to pay. Yeah. Yeah. Definitely not. He was paying double over there. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:46 Yeah. whole class. He's, uh, absolutely. He brought in filet mignon. He was like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Played Dean Martin.
Starting point is 00:51:53 Give me filet mignon. Yeah, yeah. I need my espresso. He's six-year-old with his fucking vodka red bowl and having a lobster tail at lunch. He's just,
Starting point is 00:52:01 fuck, everyone's eating rectangle pizza. We know you had that hat in elementary school, too. Enough with the hat, dude. Yeah, he's like,
Starting point is 00:52:08 I used to at lunch at the table that we eat chicken pucata. Wait. So I know we got completely off track back to you going to the movies you had a good time at the movies yeah would you go back to the movies if i was compelled to watch a movie has there been nothing that has come out where it's
Starting point is 00:52:26 just like i should go see that in the theater i think i'm just spoiled by the way that we consume now like it'll it'll like these things will be available in my living room in a couple months yeah that doesn't but like for me with movies it's like if i see a movie and i'm like oh i want to see that that the time that that lasts is probably much sure that's shorter than it lasts for you. Because if it did last longer of like, no, I really want to see that movie,
Starting point is 00:52:51 then I would be compelled to go. Dude, the last week has been trying because we haven't finished Stranger Things. And I was just like, let's watch them all right now. Let's do it all, which I know we can't
Starting point is 00:53:03 because of just like their very long episodes. But like, Becca's just like, we'll watch an episode of night and then we'll wait a couple days. And then we'll watch, which we haven't done this time, but like she's much more.
Starting point is 00:53:13 I'm like on like the binge now model. I'm like that too. once I get started like I'm not I don't like taking days off like especially if we're sitting here and we're not really doing anything like why are we going to watch anything but the show we decided to watch yeah yeah so I'm kind of like that too um Nicole's like she can do like two but then it's like are you guys into stranger things she's never watched any of it I've I've watched it I just haven't watched the new season watch it and it's tough to be like I'm gonna put on this imagine having no context. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:53:47 oh, these kids and there's aliens. It's like, it's hard to explain. Technically not aliens. I mean, so we just showed Miles. So that's why we waited as long because he had to finish season four before we started watching season five. And he's like, I got like three episodes left. And I was like, get in your room. I'll do your homework. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:07 And go watch this show. And he was just like, no, I want to enjoy it. You're sick tomorrow because you're going to be home watching. Watching fucking Stranger Things. No, I'm not kidding. Last, I think it was Monday, he came home, and we hadn't started watching it yet. And on the way home, I called Becca and I was just like, is Miles home from school? And she's like, no, I was like, the minute he walks in, take his backpack, send him to his room to watch Stranger Day.
Starting point is 00:54:31 I'm not playing around, dude. Yeah. I, when I, like, let's watch it. It's getting increasingly tougher not to, like, already parts of strangers things were spoiled for me. So if you say anything, either of you, because I haven't finished this batch of episodes. yet. That gun that I brought up a couple episodes ago, I'll use it to shoot
Starting point is 00:54:50 a hat off his head. Can't have that. Not that hat. Not that one. Anyway, we do have some more sponsors for the show. The first one being, how you doing? Speaking of hats, I don't know how that's related. We have Hymns. You like that one?

Starting point is 00:57:25 that's a cute raccoon I don't want to I'm in a few I'm currently in a feud with a raccoon in my house you have raccoons they eat your garbage yeah nice no
Starting point is 00:57:37 dude so I went out there the other night to throw out garbage and there it was just on my garbage can it was standing on my recycling lifted it up and was fucking isn't that so cute how they have hands and they can just do stuff that we can do not cute dude because it was a mess there was garbage everywhere i found pieces of ham and turkey all over the place i'm surprised you let that go away i mean we ate most of it it was it was it was pieces that like were scraps yeah i didn't think it was a full hunk of ham out there well i was fucking
Starting point is 00:58:05 and then we got we went to get our tree the other night and i got home as i pull up Guess who's in the garbage can? Elvis Presley. Sure. I got out of the car and I literally like, and I was like, everyone get out that side of the car because I didn't want this thing to attack my family. Do they attack?
Starting point is 00:58:27 They can. Yeah, I don't know. They got teeth. They got hands, as you said. They got claws. Yeah. You know? I mean, unfortunately, you can't trust them right now.
Starting point is 00:58:36 But I feel like we've gotten to a good place as far as rabies. well I'm serious what do you mean like me specifically he's gotten to a good place or like the world no no like the
Starting point is 00:58:49 well I can't speak for the world but the US yeah we rabies we have all but eradicated its effects on humans once we start once we officially be like
Starting point is 00:58:58 yo it's eradicated I'm gonna be like I'm gonna start hugging some fucking raccoons then um I mean let's be very clear about something yeah
Starting point is 00:59:04 you can do that yeah it's a risk you can't but like you could also go hug a raccoon they scratch you you just go right to
Starting point is 00:59:11 hospital and you should be good yeah i don't want to i don't like going to hospitals i mean a lot of urgent care clinics in the northeast carry it because rabies is way more prevalent over here as you could tell i am the utmost fucking expert on rabies vaccine availability yes i had to go to the fucking when we were in i know when we were in phoenix i had to go to the hospital there to get my rabies vaccine yeah did it hurt did it height the first one wasn't fucking can you feel it go in you like oh I'm I'm now anti-raibed I like to imagine that I wish because like I've got IVs before and like whatever but like I wish I could just feel it going everywhere like a shield oh it's killing everything like you leave there and you feel stronger
Starting point is 01:00:02 or something I feel like we did talk about this but I can't remember but I just saw a video online about it but when I got an IV and there were some bubbles and I'm like watching watching the bubbles in the thing and I'm like, am I going to die? Oh, yeah, there was a movie I saw that was like, if you pump air, if air gets in the person's bloodstream or something, their heart will explode. It's definitely not good, but I, I also, I saw it coming from the bag, and I was just like, oh, God. And it wasn't big. It was just like these two bubbles.
Starting point is 01:00:32 Oh, but if it's an IV, the air doesn't get into you. Oh, no, it does. And an IV? Yeah. Because the way the IVs are set up, like the air won't travel through. what at least in my experience well there's like these little bubbles because they also have to inject these things into the bag gotcha got okay yes yeah a little bit of when the saline solution goes in it makes a little frothiness no no so like the bag is the bag and there's no air
Starting point is 01:00:58 in that but there's a part of the bag that you can inject things into and in this case it was like vitamin b and like some other shit yeah yeah and I guess during that maybe that causes some sort of whatever but I'm watching the bubble and I'm like oh god and then And it goes into my arm and I'm just like, yeah, um, what's that like, what's that thing with like bubbles, you know, like the bubbles in the thing, like it's dangerous. And he's like, oh, yeah, I was like, yeah, because I just saw it to go in. And probably should have said something before you saw him go in. Yeah, I, I, I didn't think that was polite to, yeah, I thought my life was in danger and
Starting point is 01:01:37 I thought it was impolite. Yeah, let me, yeah. But he explained like the, the, the dude. who was doing it he explained that like it's okay if like little bubbles because your body can handle that he's like this would have to be like a lot of air and then that gets in like that would be a huge issue like if someone like put one of those old timey like fire starters you know which one i'm talking about no you know what i'm talking about the accordion ones yeah the accordion looking one that oh like the tip of an umbrella yeah those yeah if they put that in you and just
Starting point is 01:02:06 started going off i could see that i mean that's i mean of course that but they but he was like it he's like these bubbles these little bubbles are not a big deal even if they like attach and it made one little bubble like that then like that's not really a big deal like your body can kind of filter that out but um or your lungs or whatever i don't know but he's like if if he's like i he's like i primed the line meaning that the fluid goes through it first to get all the air out there and then you kind of clip it so that you know whatever but if you don't do that and like a decent amount of the line is air and that gets in you now you're fuck So it kind of eased my anxiety about that because...
Starting point is 01:02:43 Don't tell me this. Because now I'm going to be very bubble observant next time I go get like... Well, the mini bubbles are fine. It's supposed to ease. Like, those are okay. Death by bubble would be so, so rough. But you know what I thought about? I'm like, there's a lot of people on the street that are addicts who, you're making this, you're making this serious.
Starting point is 01:03:03 No, no, but they inject themselves. I'm like, if a bubble would kill someone like that, you would think. that would happen more often like and that would be the reason sure so i guess when he was saying that it kind of like made sense because that was always something i thought about because i always thought a bubble in the line would be a big deal i don't know why i obviously know about like you know addicts using needles and stuff on the street and stuff the first time i saw an actual syringe on the street i like ran what where like i was uh by astoria park on the strip you ran in the opposite direction. Yeah, I was like, oh, like it was going to like grow legs and chase me. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:43 It's like, I don't know why, but it's been like such a spoken of like vilified situation of like needles. If you see a needle, that I was just like, I just need to get as far away from this thing as I can. That's so funny. I fucking sprinted, brother. Do you want to hear a funny story that like is similar to that, like how it doesn't really make sense why you would run away? Keith one time was hammered and got a sandwich and was walking home. I believe it. was my like 23rd birthday or something and he's walking home from the bar by himself and he heard the cops they were doing something else he heard the cops and just got so scared and and for some reason ditched his sandwich and then ran home if anything the ditching of the sandwich
Starting point is 01:04:31 that's littering and i was like what did you think like did you think that they were after you in your sandwich they could have been and he's like i'll ditch the sandwich and i got home you know but it was a thing growing up in a story that like if you saw the cops it was like oh oh they're here like what are we doing you know not that we were well there were times where we were doing stuff we could have gotten in trouble for but like i remember i remember that same sentiment just like walking down the street and the cops roll by and i'm just like oh fuck they're after me yeah like what did i do now fully knowing i did nothing there was also not a lot of cops in our neighborhood growing up yeah i feel like they and if they cared about anything it wasn't us
Starting point is 01:05:09 no you know like they were a hundred percent like more busy with other people are you there when they came up to us in the park i don't know if you were there i know josh was there but this is when josh josh used to be mad small dude like he was like tiny and we were at the park and we at this this is probably around the age that you would be like drinking in the park but we weren't doing that and the cop just pulled up like a d t pulled up in like a unmarked car and then just like came right into the park like would have caught us if you'd be like we had shit on us and just like came up to start shining our lights and be like what do you guys and then i'll never forget we're there and the guy flashes the light towards josh
Starting point is 01:05:48 he goes what do you 10 he was like 18 years old yeah no that same thing happened at the lake do you remember what you fucking 10 do you remember the same thing happened at the lake where they saw josh and they were just like oh you 12 you know he did look very small for his age now now he's huge and kick our heads off so he's pretty big but also i could still kick his ass I will do anything, Josh, for you to take two rounds with Frank in the gym. Let's be very clear. Josh would kill me, revive me, and then kill me again. I can't wait, dude.
Starting point is 01:06:18 He's going to hit me up and be like, yeah, we should get a video. Yeah. He said that to us before. Like, yo, like standing out of studio sparring. Just us sparring, Josh. Yeah. He would take that very seriously. And he'd win.
Starting point is 01:06:31 What about you two at the same time? No, we're getting them. You getting them? Two people at the same time. In what kind of fight? it's a good it's good question well because he does all kicks no he no he punches he strikes yep all right so i mean he does moitai i i thought moitai was kicking there is kicking there's also punching plus punching if frank like tackles them yeah like if we both like just tackle them yeah you know what
Starting point is 01:06:54 i mean you're pauls on them you're right i think i can i can withstand like two or three punches and i think you can withstand two or three punches yeah maybe if they're not in certain areas you know like if it was just like bang here in my nose I'd be like I think that we could get and corner him and get him down together as a unit before like two on one
Starting point is 01:07:18 I mean we're two grown men yeah no it's hard it's hard the best athlete in the world would have a difficult time with that I really wonder what he's thinking while he's editing he's that in this like there's no fucking way there's no fucking ding ding ding I kick Frank's head off
Starting point is 01:07:33 and here's what I fully expect is that we're going to get a going through how he would whoop our ass. He's going to give me a fucking right cross, knock my fucking mouthpiece out. Well, he'd probably go for my knee first because I had my knee surgery 15 years ago. I don't think he has a scouting report on you. He knows that.
Starting point is 01:07:50 We've known the kid forever. We've known him for like 20 years. He probably knows our weaknesses. He's probably mapping this out right now. And I would say, though, he should be more worried about me than you. No offense. Why?
Starting point is 01:08:03 I'm just, I think I'm in a, bigger weight class than him. So I just have more... Bro, do you know how much Josh weighs? The kid looks... I know what he looks like. I would say he weighs 170. I think he probably does.
Starting point is 01:08:18 Yeah, and it's all muscle. But it's not... He doesn't look like that. He looks like... He might be less. But he's big. Well, because he's... He's still...
Starting point is 01:08:29 Well, it's because you could be as muscular as you want and go to as much moitai as you want. He's still four foot. six i mean i don't know that now you're four foot six now we're going to have to do the video now we're going to have to do the video Josh we're going to rent out of gym we're going to see what happens he's going to text me he's like i have to defend my family's honor um yeah i can't imagine that um we'll be all right well how do we get from raccoons to that do you think you and i tag team could beat up aunt yeah all right good as long as you know we're saying that we could
Starting point is 01:09:04 beat up Josh. Wow. What do you think he's going to beat Josh up? No. You don't think so? I'm not beating Josh up. You sure about that. Josh trains to fight.
Starting point is 01:09:15 So I'll just start grabbing. What's that? It was both of you. It was both of you. Oh, are next? No, what were you grabbing that you were going like? No, it was the ball. It was the balls.
Starting point is 01:09:25 Oh, you're a dirty fighter. There's two of you. You're not, you're not. I just meant in general. Like, are you a dirty fight? You, they all grab your fucking ball. I don't give a shit. Sure.
Starting point is 01:09:32 Sure. Yes. Don't try it. Well, it depends. For once, talk about something opposite that has nothing to do with your hat. It depends. It depends what they're doing. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:41 But I'll grab you. Who's they? Both you. Like your opponent. I'll grab you balls. I mean, if so, if we don't go for balls, you're not going for balls? Oh, my God. It really depends.
Starting point is 01:09:49 No, there's two of you. I'm going for balls. You have no chance. I'm going right for balls. Oh. How do I defend my balls? Jeans? Jeans.
Starting point is 01:09:57 No, you can get, you can do. Be tougher, though. Also, if I'm like spread, if anything, if anything. sweatpants you're better off baggy or sweatpants your shit will get lost in the cloth am I insane jeans are like tougher to like get through
Starting point is 01:10:15 the denim material sure but I'm saying like if you wear like really baggy like Jenko jeans or something I can go right up to your balls no there's a lot of cloth in between them okay you wear sweatpants I'll wear jeans I'll wear leggings
Starting point is 01:10:33 That's actually worth Have you ever worn leggings? No, I don't think so I mean even, no, you could wear leggings You never worn like leggings Thank you for giving me No, no, no, I meant like, like I don't mean like women's leggings
Starting point is 01:10:47 Yeah, like Long Johns or like For like football or something Mormons? What are you doing? I don't know, I'm just saying Or like for like football or something Do you know Mormons wear like a full one piece Long John like to bed The like the top of the
Starting point is 01:11:03 more like as Mormon as you can get look that up Mormon bedtime Mormon bedtime clothes Mormon bedtime clothes Mormon bedtime clothes I forgot what it's called but it's like a thing and it and it's not like the ass flap it may it's not like a bedtime garments that's probably a bed where I say what I wanted to say but there's like a full yeah like that like this yeah yeah it's like a whole thing come on dude yeah and I'm not sure why But this, I sweat too much. I can't go full more. I mean, I could sleep in that, but like, the fact that I would have to would upset me.

Let's unpack that a little bit. What do you mean? Stains of what?
Starting point is 01:12:21 What are you doing in your sleep that you're staining your clothes? Dude, I don't know. You're fucking sweating and, like, your butt and your balls and, like, I don't know. Are you and I on the same page here? feel like this would be more concerned for you for me for him why yeah i mean i've spoken you guys talk about sleeping naked all the time and i'm like no like that that's crazy and you but you're not worried about sweating that thing and just making it look like i i guess you sweat more than i do so sweating is not an issue for me not at night are you not a sweaty boy no not really frank
Starting point is 01:12:52 doesn't really sweat i don't really sweat wow your pits sweat though like sometimes you got a white tea that like the corner is like that was the that was the odor that was the deodorant i'm telling you right now there was a deodorant that i was using and i'm not going to name the name of the company but i i'm not kidding they ruined several shirts because it like turned my underarmes black i'm serious dude i have sure you've seen them i've seen i've like you know someone take a shit in your arm yeah and and that was fully the deodorant because i've i've used other deodorant that doesn't happen so even if that is true we don't know alleged but even if that's true you putting the shirt back on is that counts yeah
Starting point is 01:13:31 I have detachment issues. I'm sure. That's fair. You have detachment issues even with white T-shirts that have shit armpits? Yeah, because I remember where and when I got those shirts. A pack of white T's? Yes. Some of them I don't. Some of them... Do you really not? Like, I know that, like, you don't, like, for things, but, like, what's, what's, like, a ridiculous thing that you, like, that you can acknowledge is ridiculous, but you don't throw those things out?
Starting point is 01:13:58 I mean, I have boxers from what I. I was in like middle school yeah I know that but like is there like a weird item I mean I have shirts you know that I that that that no longer fit me you know at a point in time I was a medium right what the hell is that I have you know but they're like nice shirts still that I'm like I'm just gonna keep this and I don't do the whole like if I go to be a medium again but just like I'm not getting rid of this why because because if those threads could talk they'd tell the story of my life they can't i know but if they could but what does that mean what does that count toward i think that there wait so hold on i this is interesting to me honestly
Starting point is 01:14:43 sure a shirt that's a medium and it's not a particularly like it's a blue shirt it's a nice shirt i got some nice shirts no no i'm saying just like a shirt though that's like a blue shirt there's like nothing crazy about it okay haines blue shirt you wouldn't throw it out even though it doesn't fit you there's not this like pattern on it that's like whoa It's just that it's your shirt. Yep. And you won't throw that up. Yep.
Starting point is 01:15:05 So you haven't thrown out a shirt ever? No, of course I have. There are some shirts I make exceptions. And if I throw a shirt out, that is non-donatable. Like, it's like, no one's going to take this. I rip it like Hulk Hogan. Also, when I say throw out clothes, I mean donate. I donate most of the clothes that I get rid of.
Starting point is 01:15:24 I donate every single piece of clothing. Well, no. There are certain ones that you, like, shouldn't. Do you know I donated that Gucci shirt Yes, you told me that And good for whoever got that I know Who ever got this
Starting point is 01:15:37 I'll donate literally anything I will too But like a white like raggedy t-shirt That has fucking pit stains and shit like that I'm not donating that Well yeah I'm tearing it like I'm Hulk Hogan Yes I think that's a great way
Starting point is 01:15:52 To kind of go about that But what separates a shirt So it's only a shirt that's like Did I wear it first? Why are you willing to part with some and did I wear it for something specific like does there something about it that I can remember you know like for instance I have an old pair of like nikes but they're like like I used them for like mowing a lawn and stuff like that and I recently got a new pair of shoes and I went to
Starting point is 01:16:16 go throw these out and I looked at the shoes and there is a little paint stain on it and it was from when I painted Ruby's first nursery and I was like oh well now I have to keep these forever something. Right. If that wasn't there, yes, all the times I wore it, all the times I did this and da-da-da-da-da-da. Right. It would still be meaningful. But now that I see the thing and it brings it back to a specific, I'm like, oh, well, now these are mine forever. Okay, which I understand. Let's talk about the potential situation of you throw it out anyway. Yeah. Yeah. Like, I don't want to say that someone did that because I can see how you'd be upset by that. But like, what happens if you do throw them out?
Starting point is 01:17:00 If you're like, you know, I'm just going to throw them out of their shoes. And, like, I get it. There's, like, an attachment to the paint, cool, whatever. But you kind of let them go. Like, what does that? How does that make you? I think that there just, there's a time where you just feel like it's time to let them go. And you let them go.
Starting point is 01:17:15 I mean, eventually, in theory, like, they will forever be energy in the universe. And that doesn't take that from that. Because let's say I throw out a pair of shoes. Let's say they're donated to somebody else. somebody else has them eventually through time they'll get melted or burnt down through a landfill or something that energy goes out into the air
Starting point is 01:17:34 and it's forever in the universe in our ever-expanding universe so there is a time where I can allow it to continue its process into being a part of it around us or I could light it on fire myself and I can inhale the fumes I'm not saying I'm doing that because that might not necessarily
Starting point is 01:17:50 be good for me but it's something it is to do yeah inhaling shoe fumes yeah yeah no i wouldn't i wouldn't suggest you do that i haven't and won't so what is the so what is the what is the reason why because this this thing that you just said where you give something away or you donate it it becomes garbage it gets melted the energy is still you talk about the energy or whatever why do you need all of that in your on your personal if that's something that you don't need all of it i don't i mean you you keep a lot
Starting point is 01:18:25 I keep a lot. Not all of it. There are stuff like literally like as time passes I get rid of other stuff. I just did it when when we moved to our new house like I took the time to go through my old stuff and literally like I was all right it's time for this to go. All right. It's time for this to go. It's time for it. Is it a time thing? It is. I think it is a time thing and it's also a relevance thing. Like I am probably way more inclined to get rid of something about like from like from like from like that has to do with like the kids and Becca. You know because like that. is more relevant and meaningful now, like compared to a fucking, you know, empty beer bottle I had for my 21st birthday. Why? Because that thing is, it's just one of those things I find, like,
Starting point is 01:19:09 if I'm going to be sentimental about this stuff, I'd rather now be about... You're less sentimental about yourself. Yes. I'm more sentimental now about the family that I have and, like, stuff like that. So, like, stuff that I have of my own, I'm like, oh, yeah, okay. But it's a time thing.
Starting point is 01:19:26 It's a time and relevance thing. That's interesting. You're just throw it out. You just get rid of it. No, it's not like that. I mean, I think that the way my mind works is if I found these shoes and it was like there was a piece of paint on there from a thing. To me, there's not enough of an attachment to the overall. Like, there has to be something else.
Starting point is 01:19:48 Like, I don't need every single thing that reminds me of that to exist in my mind. I, like, I would want something, of course. Yeah, I mean, it's just, I think it's obviously subjective person to person, like, in that moment. If paint got on six things, would you keep all of them? Probably not. You would pick one? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:09 Okay. I would say, yeah. But, because as you're like, all right, the paint splatter. Yeah, because one paint splatter. Because the one paint splatter puts me, it reminds me of everything included in that. You know what I mean? Okay. So, like, I'm-
Starting point is 01:20:22 If you throw out the brushes, that's a big paint. No, I still got the, brushes. Okay. I cleaned them out. So there's still the brushes that I use to paint all the kids' rooms. Right. So eventually I'll be like, this is the brush. And your kids are going to go, Dad, please. Get rid of it. We do not get it. I'm like afraid as an example. Here's an example. My God, you're going to have it a museum of your own life in your life. Yeah. I mean, is that not what houses are? When you move out, like, don't your parents give you like, here's all your shit that I kept, you can do whatever you want with it. I know. No, your mom, your parents do that. My mom has
Starting point is 01:20:53 stuff, but not, not like, a lot. lot of things she has like folders of like you know shit and like old like uh school projects maybe that's fair we have like some clothing but there's nothing like oh this is the wallpaper from your room growing up yeah i'd be like what the fuck am i gonna do with that i'm also let's be very clear i acknowledge that i'm probably a little too intense about this stuff i i know i'm like that's totally fine i'm just trying to understand the the the mentality behind it the mentality is just like i i I am very much so into the idea of like, you know, like you tell stories and like you're basically right now, like if someone were to meet you, like you don't know that person, but you have a collection of stories and things that you've been with and been through and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, that makes and contributes to who you are.
Starting point is 01:21:42 Yeah. And to me, these relics, these items that I hold on to allow me to kind of bring myself back to those moments, back to those memories. Where was I? What was going on? What was our life like? Oh, my God. We were expecting. Ruby and then like we were oh do you remember how you're like it just it kind of fuels the fire of the story and then eventually that fire gets dimmer and dimmer and dimmer and then maybe you pick up something and you're like oh my God and it comes back again jogs your memory yeah sometimes I mean think of how many stories you probably stopped telling that you just forgot about yeah so you got to keep that candle burning I don't think I I I personally don't
Starting point is 01:22:23 feel like I need to okay i think that like that's that's probably okay yeah i don't think there's any right or wrong way to do it yeah no it's not i also think i i i know i are you worried is that like the worry though you're worried about you'll forget something sometimes i mean but that's not why that's not like propelling me to do this stuff sometimes there is the worry of like oh man like what if i forget let me tell it again to like but then also it's just like i don't know there's like for instance I have
Starting point is 01:22:54 you know one of I don't have one I have five of Ruby's pacifiers from when she was a baby
Starting point is 01:23:00 eventually I'll only have one because I know eventually I'll be like I don't need all five of these but like when I have a physical object it's like to me it's like a sense
Starting point is 01:23:10 of like time travel like I can go back to be like oh my God like this was the thing that she and us and at the time like it just
Starting point is 01:23:18 to me it feels like there is more to this item it's like the idea of like if you were to go and buy a dinosaur bone you know yeah you go buy a dinosaur bone it's just like yo this is from this time yeah think of the time that it's lasted where was it all that like there's more to it so i definitely understand that i guess the i like i i get what you're saying and i agree with you um the part that i think that makes you stand out as far as that does is maybe the amount and the, I guess the items,
Starting point is 01:23:59 like very specific niche items. Sure, yeah. So it's like, that's why I'm wondering the mentality behind that because of course, like the pacifiers, like I wouldn't be surprised if you kept all of them. Like that to me, you know, especially with like your young children, their young ones, keep everything. Like, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:24:14 Obviously. But the, like, you know, your shirt that was a size medium, that, of course, we'd never, you know, like, you're never going to, like, wear it again. And it's just, like, a shirt or whatever. It never minds you of something, like, still the idea that I have to keep this, too. That's what I'm interested. It's also, with clothing in particular, it's also, like, I can offer it to my kids one day. Like, Miles, maybe one day he'll want a shirt.
Starting point is 01:24:37 And if he doesn't, then we can get rid of it because then there's no point for me to have it. Like, but is that the reason you're keeping it? Or why you chose to keep it, like, at that time? I would say 50-50. But you probably kept that shirt at a time where Miles didn't exist. I mean, I see what you're saying. No, but I see what you're saying. But my mentality is just like, oh, it's an old shirt.
Starting point is 01:25:00 I've had this shirt forever. I'm going to keep it. Maybe one day he'll want it. If he doesn't, then basically the clock expires on both of those things. And it could be time to get rid of it. Okay. Yeah. And do you have anyone in your life that's like that too?
Starting point is 01:25:15 Probably not to the extent that I am. I think I definitely have people in my life. Like, I think it is a part of my family. like we all like took things from our childhood home and stuff like that but I think I am probably like younger though like like like when you were younger like when you were younger like did you see anyone doing this and you're like oh I like this I don't think so I really do think and as all things tend to with me it all comes back to my megazords I really do think that seeing Toy Story 3 and realizing like oh those toys that I played with at that age are now gone put me more in probably a concentrated position
Starting point is 01:25:51 to just be like let me hold on to it as long as I can and then I want to get rid of it at my time I'm not blaming my mom but I am blaming my mom Pixar's to blame really and my mom okay interesting and Joey's just like
Starting point is 01:26:09 oh what's this my kid's birth certificate? Fuck this and he'll burn it and rip it no I'm not like that Oh, I know. I know. I'm bust of each other. Do you do that? Do you keep stuff? No. I feel like I'm good at detaching from it, unless someone, like, gifted me something, maybe. Like, if it's their time and their money and their thought, I'm more likely to save it, I suppose, than anything I have. Yeah. I think also, like, there's been times, like, in the past five years that, like, I do a secret Santa with my friends, and, like, sometimes you get a gift, you're kind of like, I'm never going to get to this.
Starting point is 01:26:43 and I'm okay with getting rid of that pretty suddenly not like that day but like I'm just it's just not for me and like I just don't I don't even think that the gift was given with this like this is all of me here this item so I'm like okay with kind of detaching from stuff like that yeah I guess I get that but I'm like you if someone gives me a gift I am like
Starting point is 01:27:04 even if I'm not crazy about it like I'm gonna keep it I'm gonna wear it I'm going to like that's just because it's a representation of what that person thinks of me Now, if they get me something like, here, whatever, you know, like a, it's clearly like a, you know, like a non-thought-out thing, a bit different. I'm still going to keep it, though. Like, I don't know. Like, I guess I don't know if this is weird, but like, so, like, when people send things to my PO box, like, I'm more likely to keep that than something like a family member got me as a gift. Yeah, that is, if anything, it would be opposite.
Starting point is 01:27:33 Yeah, I know, but it's like, I don't know. I just feel like it feels like an extra thought and like an extra purpose. Did that hat come in the PO box? No, this, well, no, no, no, it did not. Yeah, I really wonder what it is I don't know if there's something wrong with me But like I only keep stuff that really like moves me Like if I got something and it felt like
Starting point is 01:27:51 It really like moved me Then I'd keep that But I don't know that I have that many Moments We just got to get him more things, Frankie That's what he's saying We want to get a more things is what he's saying His birthday and Christmas
Starting point is 01:28:05 I'm like, what do you get the guy That fucking got it all? I don't know I don't but I don't I don't even like items. Yeah, he doesn't like things. I don't like items. So we've got to get him experiences?
Starting point is 01:28:17 No. You got to get him time. Get him time. You've always said that like one of your love languages is like quality time. Oh, oh, yeah, yeah. Bring a sleeping bag and just show up to his place. Be like, this is your gift. I'll do that.
Starting point is 01:28:31 I'm going to stay here for a week and a half. I'll tell you what. You want to talk about a gift that would get thrown out immediately. Here's my sleeping bag. What? sleeping back is cool i used to have a ton dude i used to sleep in a sleeping bag in my own home that's sad no it was fun it was like camping oh okay but you can't you know i had a bed i thought you were doing the whole like i slept on the floor for the first six years in my life
Starting point is 01:28:58 no no i would just i would sleep in the basement be like he's spreading lies about you no no i had a bed but i would be like oh this is fun i'm camping and i'd fucking sleep in a sleeping bag in the basement oh everyone used to do that yeah the only difference between us is i kept the sleeping bag probably or a shred of it you know what this is this is a feather that was in the sleeping bag i have i was just texting my brothers and sister about this yesterday you know what i actually got a text from my sister the other day she sent a photo of this of this like uh poster of do you remember like the first time that i ever hosted like a club night and they hit a poster yeah yeah it was the night before thanksgiving wasn't it
Starting point is 01:29:41 Yeah. Oh, no, my mom sent it to me and she goes, I just found this. And she's like, do you want to keep it? I was like, no. I pulled this out of my one of my keepsake boxes the other day. It's my childhood pillowcase. I can't see. There's a glare. Send me that. Oh, it's just a pillowcase? Yeah. Send me that quick. It's a tune squad pillowcase. Why? I was going to send it a job. Oh, okay. It's, and, and, and, and, uh, like, I think. That's a cool pillowcase. Yeah, it was. The other side is the Monstars. Did your blanket be monsters too? What was that sentence? My blanket be monsters too? Did your blanket be monsters too? Dude, look up the space jam bed spread. I remember that. Did you have that?
Starting point is 01:30:22 Yeah, that's what that is. That's what that is. So that's why I'm thinking about it because I remember that. But I think about like, oh, my little childlike head laid on this. Yeah. Like, oh my God, this is a relic of time. I could put my head on it. And am I a kid again?
Starting point is 01:30:37 It's so funny because I don't have that because it's me. Like, I would have that if it was like, This is Abraham Lincoln's pipe, but you're like, this is... I'd care less about it if, honestly, honestly. I care less if it was Abraham Lincoln. Really? Yeah. Because I don't give a fuck about him.
Starting point is 01:30:51 I'm not him. He's not me. I am him. Let's be honest about that. Oh. I'm not him, though. Yes. You're not capital H.
Starting point is 01:31:00 No, no, no. I am capital H. No, because God is him. Oh. He has risen. They... It's 2025. I don't know.
