Starting point is 00:00:00 And welcome back to WSHID's Focus on Film! I'm Jeremy Ronstad. Each week we take a look at the movies that have touched our hearts and tickled our souls. Movies that did not get the kind of validation they so rightfully deserved at the Oscars. This week we focus on executive decision starring starring Kurt Russell and the beautiful, Halle Berry. Kurt Russell stars as a secretive man who is stuck on a plane with a bunch of terrorists who's got a big bomb that's gonna go boom! But Kurt meets up with some commandos, they fly under the plane, they jump in between,
Starting point is 00:00:40 they attach to the plane, and then they take an elevator or something up into the plane, it's so exciting you can't even stand it so much action I can't even talk about it It literally tried to make my head explode just like the bomb, but here's what happens next They shoot the bad guys everybody's dead no more boom no more bomb But the plane has disintegrated. There's a big hole in the plane people have flown out There's a million people dead blood everywhere Courts uses the flight manual that Halle Berry's reading from to land the plane beautifully.
Starting point is 00:01:09 Then this happens. Very end of the movie, this incredible line that brought me to tears. Clearly, they're upset about all the dead people, but what they really want to do is go get a cup of Joe. So here it is, Kurt Russell, Halle Berry, end of executive decision, one of my favorite movies, here it is, just listen. Jean, wait a minute. Can I buy you a cup of coffee? As long as you're not flying.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Shokes me up every single time. I mean, let's worry about the dead people later, right? We don't have time for all that. We're in love. Let's go get some Joe. Okay, we'll be right back after this. Come on, shall we? On this episode of the commercial break. And it was a really cool night. I'm just explaining that, uh, Mark didn't give me a cell phone number on the way out the door. I thought we were getting close. I thought we were buddies.
Starting point is 00:02:16 And then now I feel like, I want to text them and I can't. That's probably why he didn't give you his number. Do you think, you think I could call Fallon and be like, hey, Fallon. You could try. I could try. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:30 And probably not. I don't think Mark needs my cell phone number. I don't think he wants me to have his cell phone number. It's best to go out on a high number. Yeah, that's true. It's best to go out on. I'll never see you again, Brian. It's so nice to interact with you.
Starting point is 00:02:42 I don't ever need to do it again. It's probably how it's going to go. But one. I don't ever need to do it again. It's probably how it's gonna go. But one of the things that I wanted to do, and we just haven't gotten it right yet, is I wanted the ability to take phone calls. So we have the ability to take phone calls now. We love to keep people know that we're here, that we're reporting.
Starting point is 00:02:59 And so what I'd like to do is let's go to the phones and let's see if we can take a phone call. Let's pick people. Yeah, people, but oh. Oh. A hundred K, $100,000 for a finger. I like my fingers. Yeah, I would, I probably actually say a million because I think without one thing, we think
Starting point is 00:03:18 we can lose one of the digits. I mean, does it go all the way down to the knuckle or like, it could it be hacked? No, I think you all the way down to the knuckle. Hey, like we're just the tip. It's gonna be one of the useless fingers. Yes, good. You do whatever fingers you do. Just the tip.
Starting point is 00:03:29 No, John, not just the tip. Lots of people lose the tip. Oh, oh, oh. Lots of people lose the tip. Lots of people have just the tip. That's a thing. The next episode of the commercial break starts now. It's another episode of the commercial break! Sound Brian!
Starting point is 00:03:52 Hello, Chrissy Hodeley. Hello, Brian Green. That's to you, Chrissy Hodeley. That's to you Brian. That's to you out there in the podcast. We're gonna drop the Happy New Year. We are? Yes, we're gonna drop the happy new year. Okay, I'll tell you why. It's because we're,
Starting point is 00:04:06 I'm gonna say, like, nine happy holidays. Yeah, well, I say happy holidays. Happy holidays. Happy holidays, because, you know, it's about that time of year when they're gonna start putting out the Christmas ordinance any moment now, and there you go. So we're gonna have to say happy holidays.
Starting point is 00:04:19 So let's start again. Okay. I'm Brian Green, this is Chrissy Haudley in. Happy holidays. Best of you, Chrissy. Best of you Brian Green, this is Chrissy H old again. Happy holidays. Best of you, Chrissy. Best of you Brian. Best of you out there in the podcast. Universe thanks for joining us on another episode of
Starting point is 00:04:30 The Commercial Break. And you know what I was thinking about the other day? I was thinking about, do you remember that comedian, Gallagher? Yes. The guy who made an entirely too much money running around the country, smashing watermelons, the people's families.
Starting point is 00:04:43 The jumping on trampolines. Yeah. The jumping on trampolines, what the fuck, and more on that's feelings. And jumping on trappellings, what a fucking moron act I was. You know that I recently like went back and listened to an episode of him on Mark Marren's podcast. Oh yeah. And he was saying some of the most racist homophobic scene of phobic shit I've ever heard. Someone say out loud. Under the guise of a joke, but Mark was obviously, you know, extraordinarily uncomfortable.
Starting point is 00:05:03 And so Mark said, I don't think that's funny at all. I actually think you're just being a homophobic. There's really more about Gaze, right? He said, I actually think you're just being more of a homophobic. And Gallagher walked out. He was like, fuck you and walked out of the place. Oh, that's the fucking you. Yeah, that's the fucking you, Gallagher.
Starting point is 00:05:17 Shit, rip off, comic. But you know, all of us at some point in our childhood were like, wow, Gallagher. You know, he had like 12 specials, 12-1-1 specials on HBO, Comedy Central, and all of the stuff. He was like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like,
Starting point is 00:05:31 oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh,
Starting point is 00:05:41 he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's like, oh, he's have had Dave Letterman's job. Oh. But they didn't give it to me because I was too busy out on the road. And I'm really upset about that to this day. I should have made much more money. He was like a total fucking cock-knocker. And... Weird. And at one point, didn't his brother like step up in for...
Starting point is 00:05:56 Wasn't it like some controversy where he was doing shows on one side of the country as Gallagher? And then his brother was doing shows on the other side of the country. I don't know, I'm just saying. That's also Gallagher. I don't know. I have this thought. That's also Gallagher. He is like now all positive vibes that I had about Gallagher in my childhood have completely gone.
Starting point is 00:06:13 I mean, he's of one no-dact, right? He's just smashing stuff and people have to take it in the front row. He was never well-rounded. He was like a double-dare, the Nickelodeon double-dayer version, adult version, kind of. Yeah, he was gonna like the adult version. He was more of a daincook that a Dave Chappelle, let's put it in the back, like, for dain, I like dain, dain's a pretty good one.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Dain me a dain of buddies. You know, I'm famous now. I get flown around and Mark Cuban's private jet and all that stuff, www.tcbpodcast.com.

It's a big sham. It's a pump and dump scam, essentially, it's what it is. But maybe we'll give away, you know, one of our friends alt coins. You know, we have one of those friends, one of those podcasts guy, you know, I'm talking about I don't even mention his name while I'm here.

Starting point is 00:08:31 Because Chrissy and I are now recording live on fireside. We're fire-siders. Yes. Us and our good friend, Mazda Jiboni and Mark Cuban. They're all there hanging out with us 24 hours a day. I never got, I never got Mark's cell phone number. Oh, I don't know why. He neglected the game too.
Starting point is 00:08:48 He made a quick exit. He was like, see you later, man. Later, man, checking out later. I don't know, it was a quick exit. You know, I think when you're like that rich and that famous, I don't wanna say too much, but I know there were security measures that were in place. So you couldn't say too much, but I know there were security measures that were in place.
Starting point is 00:09:06 You couldn't see them. It was clear that there were security measures in place that if anything happened, if anything happened, Mark could immediately communicate with somebody that would, I'm sure, just come barging in the door and take care of shit, right? But those kind of guys, they do the Irish goodbye. They don't like walk around the room. Right. I mean, really nice to meet you and I'll see you later.
Starting point is 00:09:22 Yeah, I'm leaving. I'm talking, I'm talking, of course, if you haven really nice to meet you. And I'll see you later. I'm leaving. Yeah, I'm talking. Yeah, I'm just leaving. I'm talking, of course, if you haven't listened to the episode yet, that I had an opportunity to have a be at a dinner with Mark Cuban and Fallon Fittemi and Maz Giovanni from Fireside. And it was a really cool night. I'm just explaining that, Mark didn't give me a cell phone number on the way out the door. I thought we were getting close.
Starting point is 00:09:39 I thought we were buddies. And then now I feel like I want to text them and I can't. That's probably why he didn't give you his cover. Do you think I could call Fallon and be like, hey, Fallon. You could try. You could try. And probably not. I don't think Mark needs my cell phone number.
Starting point is 00:09:58 I don't think he wants me to have his cell phone number. It's best to go out on a high note. Yeah, that's true. It's best to go out on. I'll never see you again, Brian. It was so nice to interact with you. I don't ever need to do it again. It's probably how it's going to go.
Starting point is 00:10:12 So one of the things that I wanted to do over the last couple of months, we've been trying to figure it out. We've been trying our best to get the technology to work here. It's in the TCB podcast studios where many, many wires connect to nothing. Yes. And we'd leave. We like it that way. We figure if they're not...
Starting point is 00:10:26 Well, it's kind of like the Clark Rizwald Christmas vacation. Cluster... Yes, the cluster strain. You don't know how it turned on, so just leave it to fuck alone. Yeah, just don't touch it. That's the one rule about this studio. Don't fucking touch it. And I work hard to keep my son away from all these wires.
Starting point is 00:10:44 He's trained now. He knows how to walk in between him and make sure he's good at that. He's actually a little podcaster in training that kid. But one of the things that I wanted to do, and we just haven't gotten it right yet, is I wanted the ability to take phone calls. So we have the ability to take phone calls now. We've got a lot of people know that we're here, that we're reporting.
Starting point is 00:11:03 And so what I'd like to do is let's go to the phones and let's see if we can take a phone call. Let's pick people. Yeah, people about. Oh, I am really bad at cooking. That's an understatement. I eat mostly cereal because I can't fend for myself. Macaroni and cheese ends up burnt on the bottom of the pot. Pasta ends up smushy, smashy. I'm just not good at cooking, you get the point.
Starting point is 00:11:27 One of the reasons why I love Hello Fresh and I have been using it for years is because they give you recipes with pictures. Pictures. That way, there's no way I can mess it up. Put pictures in front of me and I'm good. That's why I like Hello Fresh. They're making it easy. They send every single ingredient in a box to your front door,
Starting point is 00:11:46 with an ever-revolving menu of delicious meals prepared by professional chefs. So I look like a hero when Astrid comes home and I've prepared this beautiful meal, and I don't have to tell her about the pictures. Also, Hello Fresh, during the pandemic, delivered four million free meals to those in need.
Starting point is 00:12:03 And I think that's an incredible freaking thing to do. Hello Fresh is a good company, they have a good service, they deliver good food straight to your front door, and you can save up to 28% by ordering your meals in a single box rather than going to the grocery store and buying more than you need. Those are all great reasons to use Hello Fresh, the pictures mainly, but you know, delivering free food to people in need and 28% of your grocery bill is not bad also. Another reason to order HelloFresh is they are offering the commercial break listeners up to 14 free meals.
Starting point is 00:12:36 If you do the following, go to hellofresh.com slash TCB14. That's TCB14. Make sure you use the promo code TCB14 or TCB14. Either way, there's a one and there's a four and there's a TCB. You get what I'm telling you, hellofresh.com slash TCB14. Use the code TCB14 for up to 14 free meals. Thank you, hellofresh. I will use you as long as you keep the pictures.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Let's pick up the phone on William from Brooklyn. William, you there? Yo, yo, it's, well, big will, the champ Brooklyn New York. How y'all doing? What? What's up? Well, best of you, brother. Best of y'all.
Starting point is 00:13:18 Listen, I'm going to come out and hot with a fun fact. Okay. All right. You know, with Mark Cuban, you know, that show is Shark Tank, right? Yes. We did. They did ownership of the company. If you look at the little fine, small print at the bottom of the screen, you find out that
Starting point is 00:13:34 in order just to be on that show, they have to give ABC 2% of their company. I knew that. I knew that. And I actually thought it was much more. I actually thought it was 10%. But if it's 2% regardless of whatever it is, I did know that. I did know that and here's an interesting,
Starting point is 00:13:48 so I'll now shoot a fun fact back at you. Originally sitting in Mark Cuban's seat for the first season was a gentleman named Kevin Harrington, who was a late night infomercial guy. That's what he was famous for. He owned one of those companies that did infomercials and he was very successful doing this, like made, you know, hundreds of millions of dollars doing this. He was the first guy. Now, admittedly, his personality was not
Starting point is 00:14:11 extremely strong on camera. And so he didn't spend a lot of time on camera because he wasn't one of those guys that was interesting to listen to. Yeah. But he did make a few deals. And then on season number two, they started bringing in other people. I think Cuban came in season number four or something like that. Kevin Harrington, I actually worked for Kevin Harrington for a period of time, sussing out new deals for him that then I would send his way. I worked with a patent attorney who worked with Kevin personally, and we would look at new opportunities. And then if we thought it was interesting, we would send it, uh, Kevin's way.
Starting point is 00:14:39 Never, nothing ever came of it because, you know, people have really stupid ideas. One guy had a cookie dipper, he called it the cookie, I forget what he called it, I'm not gonna say that from name on there, but it was just imagine this, it was a straw that had a holder for a cookie. And so you could dip the cookie in the milk while you were drinking the milk through a straw
Starting point is 00:14:56 and then you could pick it up and eat it. And he thought this was the billion dollar idea and I thought clearly this is horseshit. Like, tape a cookie to your straw, I don't know, like who needs that, who needs that who needs that you need that no one needed that that cookie Dipper sounds like going to cookie months their sexual positions hey listen don't talk about talk about cookie months are like that that you know there's cookie months for
Starting point is 00:15:17 porn out there will you know don't get Brian started on the board all the fan fiction in the world is out there for any kind of genre you want. If you like it, somebody else is into it. It's it for sure without a doubt. So William, tell us what's going on. How can we help? How can we hear a TCB podcast? How can we help you? What what do you got in store for us? What what what question can we answer for you? So I started listening a couple of months ago. I know you like to find out how people find you guys. So for me, I listen on this app called Podbean. And yeah, so Podbean has these little things at the top that give you suggestions that refresh every week or so.
Starting point is 00:15:57 And you guys wanted to suggestions. Go. Go. Ever since then, I've been listening. And I was just curious and that, you know, it's way too much time to jump back in time and watch everything from the past. So I was just curious I know there was a you started as like a real estate advice thing or something like that but like I was curious. Was it was it because of covid was it but where you I know you had a radio career where you shop jobs like, it's like, well, being Anthony, like, you got fire and you moved on to better things. Like, I don't know the story.
Starting point is 00:16:26 We got fired. Well, first of all, don't even waste your time going back to those old episodes because they are shit. Even I'll let you know. Second of all, thanks to Podbean for the shout out. That's really great news. Podbean is actually, I know the people over there who ran them. I met them over at the podcast movement,
Starting point is 00:16:40 which is where I met Mark. So thanks, Podbean. So short answer is the following. Chrissy and I did work in radio, and that's how we met each other. But we weren't on air. Yeah, we weren't on air. We worked for the company in the business department.
Starting point is 00:16:55 So I was an executive over there. Chrissy was like a national salesperson over there. And that's how we met. We worked in the same office. And we just got to be best friends. We just got to be best friends. We really we started drinking together and it was all downhill from there. We were just telling on the episode we just recorded. We were telling the story about how on multiple occasions we either got kicked out, dragged out, or rolled out of multiple places because radio is a cesspool of alcoholics and drug addicts.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Just like just like you, the restaurant business. So we met each other then many years ago. We're going probably on 15 years ago. 2007. I did actually manage to get myself on air at Clear Channel for a short period of time, but we are talking about overnight on what they call a small stick, which probably reached no more than 30,000, you know,
Starting point is 00:17:41 a big stick in the legend. W-W-W.W-W. What was it? It played like old country. 96, 7, the legend. Yes. So what the guy said, I begged these people to be on air. I begged the program director to be on air. And he was like, you can't.
Starting point is 00:17:58 You work in the business office. I can't let you do that because if you fuck up your job, because you're trying to be an on air personality, it's, it looks bad on me. I'd let you do that because if you fuck up your job because you're trying to be an on air personality, it's, it comes, it looks bad on me. I just let you do that. Finally, after multiple, alcoholic beverages one night, he said, okay, here's the deal. You can be on from one or two to five in the morning. I didn't actually, I wasn't live. I would re-record, I would pre-record it, but he said, you can be on from two to five. There's probably only 10 people that are ever going to hear you. And if I get one fucking word back about you on this radio station,
Starting point is 00:18:28 if one person says one thing, I'm yanking you off so fast, your head is gonna spin. And if you start fucking up your day job, your head is gonna spin. Like, he's basically said, don't become a problem. I don't wanna hear about it. I wanna pretend like I never said yes.
Starting point is 00:18:40 I just wanna get you off my back. Yeah, and basically, so here's the story. So I walk, I don't know how to work a radio station. This radio station is a huge radio studio with hundreds of buttons and computers and all the other stuff. So William, so I go in there and the guy says, he hooks me up with a guy to train me how to do this.
Starting point is 00:18:58 Guy's name is Lance. Lance, very nice guy. teaches me how to work the radio station. He says, here's how you record. Here's how you go live Here's how you pick up on phone calls. Here's how you do the music all this other stuff and he says There's one rule and one rule only Three minutes of talk and hour three minutes how you choose to break up those minutes I don't care, but there's three minutes of total talk and hour. I don't want to hear about it
Starting point is 00:19:24 Like don't ever go over three minutes. And he said, now that's the rule. That's just the rule you never break. And he left me alone. He literally gave me one day of training, and then the next day I was in the studio recording for 96, 7, the legend to maybe 30,000 people at a time in a city of 12 million.
Starting point is 00:19:40 So I started with my three, a little good boy. I started with my three minutes. And within. I started with my three minutes and within two months I was doing almost 40 minutes of talking and I was doing like a three hour show in four hours. That was the OB and Anthony method. They would always say, you know, we would just not listen to them and it would work out because the ratings would go up. That and the ratings went up unbelievably. This overnight's in the legend,
Starting point is 00:20:07 all the startups started showing up and what's called the book in the top 40 or whatever, whether it's 50 radio stations in Atlanta, legend was always last, but all of a sudden it was in the top 40 and then, but no one was paying attention. No one ever listened to me from the radio station. I then had, Lance came in one day and he says,
Starting point is 00:20:24 hey, meet Cam, Cam wants to be on the radio. He's going to do the couple hours after you in the mornings. So teach him how to do this. So essentially, I became the the student, the student became a teacher. You franchise yourself out. That's right. And so Cam. Yeah, that's how you met Cam. That's how I met Cam. And when Cam got on the radio, he couldn't talk. He was like, I can't realize that. And when Cam got on the radio, he couldn't talk. He was like, oh, he's just couldn't say anything. He was so nervous to get behind the microphone. He had never heard his voice behind the microphone.
Starting point is 00:20:51 He was so nervous. Poor guy was so shy. So I suggested, why don't you and I will do a little talking back and forth on my show, and then that'll make you comfortable behind the microphone, then you can go off and do your own thing. Well, the rest is history, as Cam and I went on to do three hours of talk in the four-hour block that I had,
Starting point is 00:21:07 and it all was shits and giggles until we one night, we made joke about Sarah Palin's daughter. It wasn't a bad joke. It wasn't like a rude joke. We didn't use any crafts words, but this was a country, this is a classic country station in South Atlanta, and making fun of Sarah Palin at the time was like, you know, it was not the thing to do and we
Starting point is 00:21:26 Caused a holy shit storm inside of the clear to a rug Levels do not matter in our on our current atmosphere. It's either zero or 10 Zero hundred my friend and that guy yanked us off air. So if he actually yanked cam off air Told me to shut the fuck up and do my three minutes and Within a month we were right back to it. He let camp back on air, right back to it. But it all ended when the clear channel got bought by a private equity company. They laid off tens of thousands of people.
Starting point is 00:21:56 And I wasn't one of them, but there were other people who had family members at the time. I didn't have anybody to take care of myself. So I took a severance package, so a guy next door to me could survive the layoffs. That's how that happened. That's how Chrissy and I met and Chrissy did a couple times come on air. She was a guest on our little shitty rinky dink radio program in the middle of the night.
Starting point is 00:22:18 So there you go. And that was like 2009, now fast forward to 2020. And I got asked by a friend, she said, you should do a radio show or a podcast. It's like a radio show, but a friend Allison. And I had been thinking about it for years. Actually, my wife had told me I should do it. And she was really pushing me to do a video podcast,
Starting point is 00:22:37 like a podcast on YouTube. But no one wants to look at my ugly fucking mug. I mean, so I grabbed Chrissy. I said, hey, Chrissy, why don't you just do the first two episodes with me? That's all I'm talking about what I mean. So I grabbed Chrissy. I said, hey, Chrissy, why don't you just do the first two episodes with me? That's all I'm asking. Just do the first two episodes with me. And the rest of this story actually,
Starting point is 00:22:52 by episode number two, we were hooked. And here we are, almost a hundred episodes later. I know, it's crazy. In hundreds of thousands of listeners, it's just like William has been an insane, insane ride for the two of us. But we're good friends. We go way back. And in 2020, the pandemic of us, but we're good friends, we go way back and in 2020,
Starting point is 00:23:06 the pandemic didn't, we were gonna do the podcast anyway. The pandemic kind of was hitting us as we were starting our first episode. They gave us more of time to do it. It gave us more time to develop content and stuff like that. And so now I, yeah, and so now I ask you a question, William, what makes you enjoy the program so much?
Starting point is 00:23:24 ask you a question, William, what makes you enjoy the program so much? You know, obviously you guys are funny and I started by listening around the time that you guys had the masks, the masking. Oh yeah. And so now that you know, you guys have these little things that you talk about, it's kind of in my wheelhouse because I'm that guy you know what I'm saying. Yeah. And I'm also a guy that I listen a lot of podcasts and I enjoy it almost better than watching TV sometimes. Like I guess I never referenced Opie and Anthony I used to listen to a lot of radio around and fizz and stuff like that. I wanted to be on myself. I actually I think you can hear I have a pretty decent voice, but I never, I never had anybody to like push me
Starting point is 00:24:09 in that direction, you know what I'm saying? Yep. So it's just just the general interest that you guys talk about. And, and I also like the fact that Opie and Anthony used to talk about that. I don't know if you guys like him or Howard better or if there's any. And I don't know. I listen to Howard simply because I can listen to Howard and I'm hoping it, Opie or Anthony or both of them at one point were on serious, but the only reason why. Yeah, no, now it's just yet show with them. Okay. Serious.
Starting point is 00:24:35 Yeah. But they used to, they used to make fun of the, the woman that used to be in the room. And they, they would say, you know, because they'd always be like, oh, don't say that. And and Chris is not like that. And that's refreshing. You know, I'm saying she's she's saying fucking and go with it. You know what I'm saying? And I emailed Brian and had said that I wish you would talk more, you know, when I sent them my ideas for the shows. Yeah. Well, listen, I think it's I think it's great. We appreciate you listening and we appreciate you being here today. So I actually was going to, we're recording an episode. So and you know that.
Starting point is 00:25:11 So I thought, I was going to play a game with Chrissy, but do you want to jump in on the game? Yeah, so good. Let's do this. Here's the game that I came up with. Chrissy, you know everyone's a while we like to play a game, right? I know my games. You hate them.
Starting point is 00:25:23 They make me nervous. I know. My wife is so obvious that Chrissy hates, right? I know my games, you hate them. They make me nervous. I know, my wife is like, it's so obvious that Chrissy hates these games. I don't know why you play them. She's like, she never wants to answer the questions. And it's so true, Chrissy's answer is always,
Starting point is 00:25:33 well, what do you think? What would you do? I don't want to answer that. But I'm gonna push you a little bit outside of your comfort zone, okay? All right, I'll try and stay away from anything that I think might upset you or family members. It's not upsetting. It's not upsetting. I think it I here's my opinion right you want my opinion my opinion is
Starting point is 00:25:50 I think you feel like maybe this would upset When you're asking me if I'd rather fucking older guy or a younger midget than I mean I'll take the bullet for you I'll take the bullet for you. I'll take the magic. I'll answer it. But you don't want to hurt anybody's feelings. Okay, I get it. I get it.
Starting point is 00:26:10 I guess I don't really consider my wife and I don't really consider it. So I don't worry about it too much. Okay, let's play a little game. This game is called How Many Zeroes. Are you ready for this? I think how many zeros is it? Willymar, are you ready Will? Yeah, Will, are you ready? Okay, let's play a zeros is it? Is it William? Are you ready? Will yeah? Will are you ready?
Starting point is 00:26:25 Okay, let's play a little bit more ready baby born ready. Here we go. All right now How many zeros is played like this? How many zeros would it take you to do whatever I'm about to ask? All right, and there's a series of questions a range of questions It could be would you do something? It could be would you sleep with someone and you know you get it I'm gonna ask a question you tell me how many zeros Dollar wise would it take you to do the follow a question, you tell me how many zeros? Dollar wise, would it take you to do the follow? Okay, and we'll ask it if you will, ask it if will,
Starting point is 00:26:48 and then I'll get my opinion too. Let's start off easy. Okay. How many dollars, how many zeros would it take for you to eat a live fish? Oh, I'm going to go with 1,000. 1,000 to three zeros. Yes, three zeros.
Starting point is 00:27:04 So three zeros will to eat a live fish something that's alive and squiggly I'll go five thousand because she goes five thousand so he's the three zeros also so like sushi so that's really close I have actually had live on my baby octopus for an iPad Okay, you ever watch bizarre foods with Andrews and others? Yeah, of course. Craft that he does. Yeah, of course. And I was horrified as I watched a live lobster being, you know, chopped up and used as a serving
Starting point is 00:27:34 plate. Whoa, crazy, crazy. I can never watch it again after that. No, lobsters have feelings. They cry, don't they? Or some shit like that? It's gas. I think it's gas pressure that goes between the shell and the shell.
Starting point is 00:27:48 Yeah the shell I think that's a myth on the crying. Yeah. Anyway, yeah. Actually the same species as cockroaches so I will never touch them. I don't like cockroaches at all. It's the one insect that I cannot deal with and if I see them in the house I will literally buy poison that's bad's bad for my children my dogs and myself and spray it all around I
Starting point is 00:28:11 Oh I would say that you probably have to get me in the there probably have to be four zeros behind it It probably have to be like in the 10 20 30 thousand dollar30,000 range to eat a live cockroach. Okay. What about you? I mean, you don't like cockroaches either. You will. How many? I'm in.
Starting point is 00:28:32 I probably have to go to the million. Oh, yeah. Me too, Will. I'm the type of guy. I'm a big guy. And if I see a big like giant cockroach, I will run away screaming. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:43 I don't run away screaming, but I get nervous around it. I'm like, I start jumping around and I like, I come in and I make a plan. I will run away screaming. Yeah, yeah, I don't run away screaming, but I get nervous around it. I'm like, I start jumping around and I like, I come in and I make a plan, I walk outside the room, I make a plan, I draw it out. I'm gonna come in from the left, I'm gonna, I'm gonna blind side of my way. I'm gonna go shaded with one one time.
Starting point is 00:28:54 Did you please leave? Yes, I was like, I was like, if you leave, just leave, and I'll pretend like I never saw you. Just, if you go, I'll go, If you walk away, I'll walk away. And then I drink a bowl of wine. Yeah, it starts dedicating songs to it and singing it. That's like, oh man, they are so gross. Okay, here's the next question.
Starting point is 00:29:14 How many zeros for you? And I'll give this one a will first. Well, how many zeros for you to eat? Roadkill. Squirrel, raccoon. Something you see on the side of the road. Is it cooked? Yeah, that's a good question. Of course. Yeah, I'll say it's yes, it's cooked, but it's right. I came off the road. I'm trash. I'll take at least a hundred. Oh, I love it. I love it. Cook food is cooked food. It's not disease or whatever.
Starting point is 00:29:41 Yeah, it's true, but you know, usually road kill is of some rodent variety that you wouldn't eat, like a squirrel, but I do know that by the way, I do know lots of people eat squirrel, and when I was in Miami, just, or I was, I think, really. That's awesome too. When I was in Miami, when I was in Naples a couple of weeks ago, there were raccoons
Starting point is 00:29:58 that came up to the car and were like greeting us. They were like, right where you are. And they were saying hello, they were putting their hands up like this. My son wanted to play with it, and I now is he get the fuck away from that thing. No, I mean. Our record will fuck your life up. Oh yeah, they certainly will, but I know other people have them as pets.
Starting point is 00:30:12 So how many zeros for you to eat, Roadkill? Yeah, I mean, I'm gonna go with 500, so two years. Okay, 500, all right, okay, that's not that bad. Okay, let's go. Actually, I have some of this in actual practice. I have a buddy, I'm actually competitive either, I haven't mentioned it yet. I do, I do comms, what I would call semi-retired, I don't really practice anymore, but I have a buddy of mine that also does that.
Starting point is 00:30:40 And he did a fried, cicada eating contest. Oh, yeah, that's been the rage because this year was when this baby came out. Yeah, and he said that people were grabbing them one by one, like they were wretching, and he said he was just scooping them up by the handful. He won like, like 10 to 100 or something. Wow. There's supposed to not taste that bad.
Starting point is 00:30:58 So let me do you rail this for one second. I just have two questions about competitive eating. Yeah. How sick do you get after you competitive eat like that? Like how ill is your stomach after you eat, you know, 100 hot dogs or whatever it is? It depends on the length of the contest. If you're going like a two minute contest, it's still going to be more than you are her would eat, but it's still fine for us.
Starting point is 00:31:20 And most competitive eaters will just take like a 10 minute contest to the stomach and let it go naturally. But some of us also regurgitate and some go as far as to use Epicock. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. And it's sick. Yeah. And if you have a particularly meaty contest, you're definitely getting the meat sweats a night. Oh, my God. I just can't imagine that. And they're horrific. There could be zero degrees outside. And you're just hot and sweat and greasy. Oh, that makes that just can't imagine. And the whole horrific, there could be zero degrees outside and you're just hot and sweating greasy. Oh, that just makes me uncomfortable just thinking about it because I know at my age, when I eat a steak, it makes me sick, like physically sick,
Starting point is 00:31:53 I have to be careful because I'm so hungry and I love steak and I'll eat it and then I'll like, she's in half an hour later, I'll be like, oh my God, what did I do to myself? And then I watch these guys that are eating 77 hot dogs in a sitting and I'm like, holy shit. Yeah. There's actually a challenge out in Texas in this town called Armorillo. And there's a famous steak that all the competitive eaters have gone through. The 70s. Yeah. Yeah. Something like that. Oh, man. They'll sit there and film you with the whole thing to
Starting point is 00:32:21 see if you do it or not. And then they post your name and on the video. And there's like a record for the fastest time Big somebody did it in like a couple of minutes Yeah, no thanks not for me. That's a different question. How many hot dogs with 77 hot dog? Okay, here's one I got one ready. We're gonna get a little bit. We're gonna now. We're gonna get a little bit tougher. Oh, okay level two. Yes, level two Yeah, it's where like I'm too Okay, how how many zeros to run naked through the mall To run naked through the mall or walk naked through the mall whatever you do
Starting point is 00:32:56 Which got to be naked in the mall see I have caveats though that can it be a mall that's not close to home Yeah, so it can be a mall where you don't know anybody. Okay, then yeah, I'm easy on that then just give me a hundred bucks. I'll do it. Wow, we're gonna wheel down here to a little. I know. I know. All right, that's a little too close to making a thousand.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Okay, a thousand. I fired up. I'll put you up with the high it in. How about a thousand, two? That's too close to a reality. I would do it. Yeah, I would think I would do it for's too close to reality. Yeah. I would do it. Yeah, I would think I would do it for a thousand. I think for a thousand, I would do it. If I didn't have to like stand there and have conversations with people, I could run out
Starting point is 00:33:32 and run out. Here's Walk straight to the wall. Just walk straight. And I didn't know anybody. Okay. Here's one. I'm talking about walking fast. Make it through the wall.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Or prancing like one of that like that lady who does the prancer size. So you just run around calling yourself Frank the tank. I would just like make my scrondlestack available to anyone who was looking. Okay, all right. How many zeros to cut off a finger? Oh. Cut off a finger.
Starting point is 00:34:03 You had to cut off your own finger. I had to cut off my own finger. You have to cut off your own finger. Will has to cut off his own finger. Cut off a finger. You had to cut off your own finger. I had to cut off my own finger. You have to cut off your finger. We're not anesthetized here. You just have to. Oh, I got to. Oh, wow. That's sober. Just losing a finger is easy. Yeah, losing a finger, you don't, you know, just you have no choice about it. You can just go. Yeah. But cutting it off, you have to think about it, you have to attack it, and you have to do it, right? Okay, and so I will say yes, that you are, no, actually, you know what, you can be in whatever state of an ebriation you'd like.
Starting point is 00:34:31 Okay. So how many zeros? Cut off a finger. I'm gonna go with a hundred K. A hundred K, $100,000 for a finger. I like my fingers. Yeah, I would, I'd probably actually say a million because I think without one thing,
Starting point is 00:34:46 we think we can lose one of the digits. I mean, does it go all the way down to the knuckle? Or like, could it be half? No, I think you all the way down to the knuckle. Like, you're just a tip. Can it be one of the useless fingers? Yes, you can do whatever fingers you choose. It's just a tip.
Starting point is 00:34:58 No, John, not just a tip. Lots of people lose a tip. Oh, oh, oh. Lots of people lose a tip. Lots of people have just the tip. That's a thing. So many problems have been caused by just the tip. I'm Catholic. Just the tip is like, that's a way of living for us. Okay. How many zeros will to lose a finger? I would probably go million, but I'd have to have like a clean, cleaver job.
Starting point is 00:35:23 Yeah, I mean, I would have to. Yeah, I couldn't do it. Saw style. Yeah, you'd have to be quick. I say you could lose it in whatever man you could take it off and whatever man you choose, and you can have whatever state of an ebriation I'm with will. I go a million dollars because I think losing a finger. I was just obviously here.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Yeah, you were like $100,000. I think I could probably come up with that. That'd be a good on demand. Chrissy loses a finger. You've never had a little kid to play. I see so much cooking that I'm cutting my fingers all the time and always having to bandage them. So if it wasn't there anymore, then it would be good.
Starting point is 00:35:52 You probably wouldn't know it. Okay. Take a dream vacation with your worst enemy, with your worst enemy. Like the person in this world that you just despise with a passion. That's relative though, because I don't have the same hate for the kids that I did in high school. Yeah. But if you've got me in that moment, I'd want that person to be the most hated person. You understand?
Starting point is 00:36:16 I hate somebody more now, but I had that same hate 20 years ago for someone else. Okay. So that's just. It has to be relative. Okay. So the person that you hate now, no, it's almost like I'm saying, I'm gonna give you your dream vacation.
Starting point is 00:36:29 I want you to travel all across Europe or wherever. Go to Thailand. How long is this vacation? I'll just say two weeks. Two-week vacation, you're gonna have to stay in the same hotel room, you have to eat at the same place as you're gonna have to go on the same adventures. You're basically chained to this person,
Starting point is 00:36:42 but you're gonna get to go on your dream vacation. And I'm gonna pay you to do it, how many zeros? I mean, I'm gonna go with, I'm going to get in with a hundred K. Okay, hundred K, I think that sounds about right? I think I would try and use it as an opportunity for healing. For healing.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Yeah. I used to do an opportunity for a good podcast episode. Yeah, we gotta take it all on my day. We gotta turn it into something. Yeah, okay, Will, how many zeros to take your worst enemy on a dream vacation? I wouldn't need a lot. I'll make it $10.
Starting point is 00:37:14 It's easy for me. $10. Yeah, I know. Listen, I'm a current era hippie. I'm like a piece of love guy. Nobody really bothers me. So my worst enemy is a neighbor of mine that just gives me the stink guy.
Starting point is 00:37:30 I could deal with the stink guy for nothing. For a free vacation. Fair enough, okay. We're kind of new age hippies too. My wife calls me a militant hippie. That's what she says on it. Millett. Or a no-millan in hippie.
Starting point is 00:37:43 Yeah, that's true. Well, I have plenty of melanin because that tanning med puts it right in me. All right. Okay. Yes, Brian still goes with tanning. I don't go to a tanning bed. I the tanning bed comes to me. Okay. All right. Oh god. Remember the tanning mom. Oh, yeah. Oh, tan mom was the best. She was gonna follow up on that story. That's the good episode. Yeah, we're gonna do some follow up. Yeah, we'll follow up on that. Okay, so, give us, give us speech in front of 3,000 strangers
Starting point is 00:38:12 on a subject you know little about. Oh. Okay, so not only are you giving us speech in front of a new crowd that you know nobody in the audience, but you have to give it on the topic you know little about, not your area of expertise. So, we're not doing. So it's like in practical jokers now. Yeah, I know. Seriously, like this, but you know, I'm trying to, I was trying to think of the fears that
Starting point is 00:38:32 kind of we all have of something and obviously public speaking. No, they always put them in cringy situations. So that's definitely one of them that you're like, but see for me, I'm not a person that gets embarrassed easily like that. So that's light work for me. I would just look stupid and that's okay. I'm I look stupid on a daily basis. Me too.
Starting point is 00:38:49 I don't mind looking like an idiot. That's my kind of my public persona. I would say, if I'd answer first, I would say if you gave me probably a thousand dollars, I would go give a sp- because I think I could talk through pretty much any subject regardless of whether or I knew about it. You could probably say, super cool, you know, like super computers, or organic super computers,
Starting point is 00:39:10 and I could probably go up there and make shit up. And you definitely go in. Even if everybody else was like, that's boil shit. Yeah, I don't know that I could do what you do, and that's why you're the lead. Yeah, I was pot-killed. Well, somebody's gotta be in charge.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Someone's got a little bit of an idiot. But yeah, I mean, I would say $1,000, I'd give it a shot,. Someone's got a little like an idiot. But yeah, I mean, I would say $1,000. I'd give it a shot. I don't care if I look stupid either. Especially people didn't know. Is that people you don't know? People you don't know. It was people I knew.
Starting point is 00:39:33 It was 3,000 of the people that I knew. You'd feel more pressure. Yes. Okay, all right. I think I'd feel more pressure if I didn't know them. Because if I did know them, then they'd know that I was just going to come up there and talk shit for 30 minutes. They'd be like, that's a problem. See, I would think that of me. They'd, then they'd know that I was going to come up there and talk shit for 30 minutes.
Starting point is 00:39:45 They'd be like, that's a problem. See, I would think that of me. They'd be expecting me to know what I was talking about. That's true. They would be expecting me. They were like, we better fact check all of it. Yeah, exactly. And think about me.
Starting point is 00:39:55 I go on stage and shove food in my face for money. Do you think this is going to make a problem? That's true. That's true. That's the most important thing. The least embarrassing thing I'm going to do this year. You know what, for me, this one is like a negative-cost thing because 100 bucks is nice, but it's not going to get me out of bed.
Starting point is 00:40:12 So I'm thinking of thousands just to get me to go there. There you go. Yeah, we've got to think about what's going to motivate. It's like 100 bucks to me is, you know, how much I've made my entire podcasting career. It's not going to motivate me to do shit. Okay, here's one. Base jump off a tall building. Base jump off a tall building. And so we're not talking about parachuting out of an airplane
Starting point is 00:40:34 where there's a nice soft field to land in. We're talking about base jumping off a building in the middle of a city and you got seconds to throw your parachute. Whoa. I'll answer first. I'm out. Yeah, you're out. Are you afraid of heights?
Starting point is 00:40:50 Uh, I'm afraid of heights and large plus gravity equals flat. Yeah, but I mean, so okay. Yeah, I'm with you. I don't trust the power issue for my weight limit. I'm sorry. Yeah, I don't. Listen, I don't, uh, there, I probably wouldn't have a challenge with the weight limit, but I am horrified of heights, horrified.
Starting point is 00:41:08 So I think you'd probably have to give me, it probably have to be at least $100,000, but I'm thinking more like a million. I'm thinking a million dollars for getting me, because I don't even know that my body would physically allow me. It could get up when you're standing up on top of the building too. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. I'm gonna be like, wait, can I really negotiate?
Starting point is 00:41:25 Hi, magic man, making these wait, can I really negotiate? Hi magic man, making these offers, can I really negotiate? Yes, see I'm a bit more of a dare devil. I love crazy roller coasters and heights and stuff like that, like turn one junkie. So I probably, yeah, I'd probably do it for like, I mean, 10 seems low if I lost my life. So. Yeah, I mean, you seems low if I lost my life.
Starting point is 00:41:45 So, yeah, I mean, you got to think of that. That's your value. I would say I would probably do it for $10,000, but. She looks like bitch, she left me with $10,000. That bitch. I'll give you $10,000 for a 10% stake in your life. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Just go to ABC, they take ownership. You're right. OK, so for you, it's little. It's's a thousand bucks. No, it's not a thousand. Ten thousand. Those I was saying ten thousand. I would do it, but that seems low then if I lost my life. Yeah, that's gonna be very low if you lose your life because you know, Jeff's gonna have to pay for the funeral that ten thousand dollars is gonna be gone. Where's he gonna get the strippers and cope? Because that's the kind of party we're gonna throw. Yeah. All right, here's one. Hookers and blow.
Starting point is 00:42:26 Hookers and stippas. Okay, here's one. How much, how many zeros to marry a roller coaster? And no one else knows about it, and you have to stay married for a year. You have to pretend that you're in love with a roller coaster for a year. How many zeros?
Starting point is 00:42:44 I mean, I'm confused on the no one else knows about it. No one else. that you're in love with a roller coaster for a year. How many zeros? I mean, I'm confused and the no one else knows about it. No one else, another one. Yeah, what does that entail? Okay, so here it is, ready? Watch, I come up to you and I say, how many zeros to go marry that roller coaster? And you have to pretend like you're in love with that roller coaster to the point,
Starting point is 00:42:56 just like those ladies on the episode we reviewed, right? You have to pretend, but you cannot let anybody else in on the joke, you cannot let anybody else know that you're being paid to do this. You just have to go with it for an entire year. And if you tell anybody, I'm taking the money away. That's a million dollars for making it. Million dollars.
Starting point is 00:43:14 It's too hard to keep up a serene for a fucking year. Yeah, it's hard. That's part of the question. It is how long can you keep the joke going? I don't think I could get through it. Yeah, that's the thing. I don't think I could get through either. I don't think I could get through it. Yeah, that's the thing. I don't think I could get through either. I know that I could get through it. But if I could,
Starting point is 00:43:28 I'd be able to, I wouldn't be the worth the money because I think it's a 99% of fail. Yeah, that's true. This is a hard one, but I think if I could get through it, that an extra $100,000 in my pocket, just to pretend like I'm married to a rollercoaster,
Starting point is 00:43:42 is that a man- I hope for sure. It's better than base jumping. That's what I'm going to be million. Yeah, It's better than base jumping. That's what I'm going to be million. It's better than base jumping. That's the logic. Spend three nights in the Florida swamp with only the clothes on your back.
Starting point is 00:43:54 Ooh. So the Okie-Fanoki, which is famous by the way, or with you, the New York, the Everglades, which, yeah, the Everglades, which is famous for gators, snakes, and all kind of things that can kill you. Actually, that guy who's the guy who runs around doing all the, what's his name? The guy who does all of the survivalist shows.
Starting point is 00:44:13 Yeah, who we are. Inheritals. Bear grills. Bear grills said, and the guy, the alligator guy from Australia, the crocodile hunter, what was his name? Right. You know, Erwin, Steve Erwin, that's right. Steve Erwin and Bear Grills both said that the most dangerous place that they've ever visited, the place where they had to
Starting point is 00:44:32 survive was the swamp, the swamp in Florida, right? So the Everglades were their moat. That was the thing that they feared the most was not being out, you know, wherever in the Sahara Desert or any of those places. It was the swamp. And let me tell you, since I was just there a couple of weeks ago, in the middle of the swamp, taking one of those airboat rides, there was a gator or a crocodile everywhere you turn. They are everywhere. They are huge. They have their mouths open. They're ready for you. You're delicious. You're delicious and they want you. You know the thing I would be scared of the most is the freaking mosquitoes.
Starting point is 00:45:02 They eat, they would eat me alive based on last weekend. They've done your previous history with the mosquitoes. I mean, they care, it's, it's craziness. Yeah, I think you have to give me a million dollars to do this. Yeah, I've gone with a million. I think you have to give me a million dollars to do this. What about you, Will? Give me a million dollars and fill me in making the reality show.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Yeah, that's what I say. I say give me a million dollars won't make money off of the licensing rights. Okay, now spend one night on Mount Everest. One night on Mount Everest. Now remember, you're in the death zone. Above 12,000 feet, you're cold, it's chilly, it's stormy. You have oxygen, but you must spend the night up there where I'm not even experienced climbers feel like
Starting point is 00:45:43 it's a great place to spend the night. They do, but they don't like it. Your body basically just deteriorating. As soon as you get up. Does my fat ass have to climb or are you just dropping? Yeah. I'll drop you off. We'll drop you off.
Starting point is 00:45:54 You're air dropping us in there? Yeah, air drop you right to 28,000 feet. I mean, do we have more than 24 hours? 24 hours, you gotta be up there. Do we have all the equipment that we would normally have like a tent? I would say you have enough equipment that under normal circumstances are likely to get you
Starting point is 00:46:10 through the night, but since it's Mount Everest, you just never know, right? But you have a tent to protect you from the wind. You're wearing clothing that's appropriate and you have oxygen. I hate to be cold too. I hated hate it. I hate it.
Starting point is 00:46:23 Unless it's at night, I'm sleeping. Yeah, that's true. And then I like to. I can never get a cold enough. Me neither, I can't. I swear to be cold too. I hated hated hate it. Unless it's at night, I'm sleeping. Yeah, that's true. And then like, I can never get a cold enough. Me neither, I can't, I swear to God. And especially in the summer, I turn it down to 66. Yeah. I never get it under 68 because my air conditioner just says,
Starting point is 00:46:35 it won't work that hard. I would say that this one, I might need 10 million dollars to do this because first of all, I'm afraid of heights. Second of all, I hate to be cold. second of all, I hate to be cold. Third of all, I've watched a lot of documentaries on Mount Everest, and that should be scary. Those people have fucking balls of steel to go up that high and try and survive, it's crazy.
Starting point is 00:46:54 Your body's basically deteriorating the second you get up there. You can only spend 24 hours in the dead zone. Okay. But to do it, I would have to get $10 million. $10 million. That's my number. What's your number? I'm gonna go with two million.
Starting point is 00:47:08 Two million dollars. If you were just air job of me on, and I think I could make it for 24 hours. Okay, all right. Well, I go five because I feel like I have a lot, my body has enough to feed off of and keep me warm. You've got some extra insulation. Yeah, so you bundle my ass up in a couple of, you know,
Starting point is 00:47:29 whatever Excel jackets I need, I'll be good. Yeah, couple of my faces. Okay, all right. Some Columbia fans. Good. Some underarmer. All right. Okay, we have two more.
Starting point is 00:47:41 All right, well, I mean, we have a million more, but we have two more to this episode. Okay, ready? Fly and land a right. Well, I mean, we have a million more but we have two more to two more in this episode. Okay, ready? Fly and land a plane using only air traffic controller help. So in other words, pilot dies while you're up in the air and one of these little tiny planes Pilot just passes out right there, which is by which is by the way We have the inflatable co-pilot you have the inflatable But he's not much help because he can't actually do anything. Okay, so if it makes you feel comfortable, bring the inflatable.
Starting point is 00:48:08 But pilot passes out, which by the way, this has happened. There is tape of this happening. A guy was up in a plane with a private pilot and a pilot died and he didn't know how to fly a plane. And so the air traffic control talked him down. Wow. They crashed when he landed, but they survived, right?
Starting point is 00:48:23 But now remind you, I've done this. I've flown planes before. Yes. Landing is the hard part. Taking off is easy. Landing is the hard part. Flying is easy. It's just like, it's gonna turn the wheel, right? As long as you can keep your nose up and then you're good. But you only have air traffic control to help you. Yeah, but this is like my fantasy of mine. Like, this is like being at the concert and they need the drummer and you're the guy, you know. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:50 Point will, they can do it. You know when I first started learning how to fly, well, I got to admit that a couple times that I actually got on a commercial airliner in my head, I was like, if they need somebody. Yeah, you may have no idea. Should I alert the pilot that I know how to fly? I would often talk loudly.
Starting point is 00:49:08 Like, well, we're gonna take off now, which means they're probably gonna push the throttle up to 40 that get it there. I would start talking like I'm a pilot, right? Just a letter. You see this button right here? I got my wings. I flown twice.
Starting point is 00:49:27 I'm still here to talk about it. I've got five hours of flight time, buddy. Thank you, that's it. No, 32 hours of flight time, which you need like 4,000 to even become a pilot. But anyway, I would probably say I need at least $10,000 because I do understand, and I have an instructor with me every single time that could take control. He never did, but he could take control if he needed to and just that fact made me feel comfortable
Starting point is 00:49:49 to listen to instruction and do the in myriad of complicated things you need to do to get playing down on the ground and stop it safely. So I would say at least $10,000, probably more like 50 or 100 to do this because I know it's a complicated thing to do. Do you have anybody else in the plane? No, you in the pilot. It's not a adult flight. No, not seven or seven. No, because those things basically land themselves, right?
Starting point is 00:50:12 I think... No, they actually don't anymore. They don't do the automatic landing on them. I know they don't, right? But they could. If they needed to, the technology was there. Yeah. So I would say probably $50 to $100,000. Yeah, I'm going to go $50. Yeah. Well, so I would say probably 50 to $100,000.
Starting point is 00:50:25 I think this. Yeah. Well, what about you? You like you, you like the idea of flying if you ever thought about being a pilot, even though you're scared of heights? No, no, but you know, in your head, you know, you have those little kid fantasies of things that you would like to experience. Yep. I'm one of those people that I feel my dreams pretty, pretty hard. So like I'll wake up having done something, but I feel like I've had the experience. So I'm like one of those people. So I would like to do it in a fun fantasy situation, but I would probably go with the
Starting point is 00:50:58 Chrissy logic of, well, there's a chance I'm going to die. So what would my family have? Yeah. So I would probably go out with like a five million on that one. Okay. $5 million. I'm at $100,000. Chrissy's at $50,000.
Starting point is 00:51:11 You said 50,000. I said 50,200. Is what I said. 10 first. Did I? Okay. I'll go $5,000. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:51:19 It changes every minute. The more that I think about it, the more it's a bit more expensive. Okay. All right. one more question, and then we're running out of time for today, but we love to have you back another time. Yeah, this has been so fun. We encourage everybody to send us a text message

Starting point is 00:51:49 Here's the final question. How many zeroes? And then, let me throw this in. And like Howard Stern had the Wack Pack, we could have the Grundel Sack Pack. I love it. I love it. Very nice.
Starting point is 00:51:58 Very, very nice. The Grundel Sack Pack is coming. So William, you're our first member of the Grundel Sack Pack. There you go. Okay, our final question on how many zeros the final question on how many zeros is how many zeros to bring a sex doll to Thanksgiving dinner as your date And you can tell no one you have to pretend as if it's real Whatever my family would be like Yeah, I actually thought, I could say I'm going to do it anyway. Do you want to play it for?
Starting point is 00:52:28 Yeah, would Bob like a play? Yeah. By the way, Bob's got a raging heart on it. Yeah, I really like what's Chrissy doing. Yeah, what's Chrissy doing? But he's got a big cut. Yeah. How many?
Starting point is 00:52:41 Well, could you pass your girlfriend, please? Yeah, Jeff would probably get it on it too. He'd be on the joke. He'd love it. Actually, we should do this and film it. I should bring a sextile to my family and find my family dinner. I bet my family would be like, oh, Lee shit.
Starting point is 00:52:54 He met Mark Cuban. He all went downhill from there. I was gonna say, I'll do it for free just for the role. Oh, my God. I was lucky to do it. All right, well, Will from Brooklyn, Will the thrill. I really appreciate it. Thank you, Will the thrill, I really appreciate it. Thank you, Will the thrill.
Starting point is 00:53:06 That's my name. Will the thrill from Brooklyn. Big Will the champ. Bill Will the champ. I haven't been trying to build here. That's okay. Big Will the champ. Thank you very much for joining us today.

Starting point is 00:53:41 Yeah, I actually, I spoken with Will a few times via email. He'd actually sent in some ideas about content. Yeah, I actually, I've spoken with Will a few times via email. He'd actually sent in some ideas about content. Yeah, for shows. And we used one or two of them. And it was good. He's got the idea of the show. He understands my second twisted comedy sense
Starting point is 00:53:56 and how much we like it. So I really, really appreciate it. And okay, so I don't know what else we can do. What else do you want to do today? I think that's it. You think that's it? Yeah, now we've got to go when we've got to do more recording. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:54:10 We do. We've got to go when we've got to talk to some other people. We do. I just got to, I just got to say, can I just say this? Yeah. Can I just say the following? Sure. I'm not sure I really want to do this.
Starting point is 00:54:20 I know. You know what I'm saying? I can't wait till the story in full about what we're about to do. Yeah, let's keep it in a wrap's right now. Yeah, I'll keep it in a wrap's for right now. I don't want to make it sound like, you know, hey, it could be fun. We don't know. It could be fun, you never know.
Starting point is 00:54:34 But let's just say this. Yeah, can you pay me $1,000? I feel like I'm on five zeros behind this one. It just doesn't feel fun to me. It already feels like a struggle. You know what I'm saying? Then that's when sometimes things are good. And then when you have super low expectations.
Starting point is 00:54:51 We do have super low expectations. And then you go into it and you're like, well actually, that was good. That's true. You know what, that's true. I shouldn't color this a bad situation before we even know what we're getting ourselves into. So let's just go with it.
Starting point is 00:55:03 Yeah, we're going with it. I'll just say this. I'll just put it all with it like well. I'll explain what we're getting ourselves into. Yeah. Let's just go with it.
