And it's Friday, December 2nd, 2022. My name is Jack O'Brien, a.k.a. Listen, it don't really matter to me, but it's really nice when it tastes like candy. I said I like when an apple is a sugarbee. That is courtesy of Christy Yamaguchi-Maine and Tom Petty from Beyond the Grave. And sugarbee apples, which just put a song in my heart.

I don't think I know what a sugarbee apple is. They're kind of the new kid on the scene. And I'm actually very nervous because I've only had like four of them. And the most important thing about an apple is its consistency. Absolutely. So I'm really like putting my heart on the line here for these dang sugar bee apples. And, you know, the next one I have might be mealy and not very flavorful. Well, we're hoping for the best.

So wait, they invented a new apple? Yeah, I think they've been around since I think the 90s, but apples just come and go and become popular. And this is the new cutie on the block. They marketed it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's got better marketing now. It's a good name.

Sugar beet. It's like a Honeycrisp except more candy-ish, which I'm a fan of. Hey, who's that voice there that you're hearing? That's not Miles. No. That's a person I'm thrilled to be joined by, a very special guest, co-host. He's a hilarious comedian, the host of the podcast, the fratcast, Pod Yourself a Gun, and now Pod Yourself a Wire.

It's Matt Lee! Yay! What's up? I'm here. I got my soundboard. I'm ready to do some morning radio. That's right, baby. Is that what this is?

Kinda. Hell yeah. You're gonna have a fun time driving with Jack O'Brien and the douche. What's up, guys? I'm very happy to be here. My wife was just on yesterday, so we're all taking turns doing daily zeitgeisting. I feel like you guys are always on around the same time. It's always wonderful because we get one side of the story and then get it corrected. Yeah, no, I don't know what she said last episode, but I'm here to say everything she said is an absolute lie. It's not true.

I am actually the better parent. Right. The baby loves me more. And hey, you know, if my titties could produce milk, I would breastfeed, but I can't sue me.

Sue me. Don't sue me. Sue God. That's hero. Hero. Matt, we are thrilled. Speaking of hero, we are thrilled to be joined in

our third seat by a reporter who you know from the nfl network as a tv presenter in it i like tv presenter as a thing yeah that's very british uh she's also the host of the podcast benched with bonetta it's rachel bon's up? Thanks for having me. Thank you for being here. To go backwards, there is no other apple that exists other than a Granny Smith in my world. I don't need to dabble. I don't need to test out new

flavors. Come on. I feel you. You're begging to be let down at this point. And I really think we should retire the Red Delicious. Yeah, the Red Delicious, I think we've all agreed, sucks. I mean, it's just, it's a pretty looking apple, I guess. There's something about that color where you're just like, wow, that looks like it's not going to suck.

But then you have it and you're like, this is the suckiest apple. Why would anyone eat? The only reason I will eat another apple is if it's covered in caramel, like a candy apple. I'll mess with anything at that point. Yeah, pretty much. I'm putting anything in my mouth at that point. I feel like the only time I will eat a Granny Smith is when it's covered in caramel because it's too tart. Oh, no.

It's a perfect amount of tart. Sounds like you're afraid. It tastes like a crab apple. Sounds like you're afraid of flavor. Oh, very much so. I'm a coward. Sorry. Did they not give you that in the

pre-show? Yeah. They prep every guest by going, just so you know, Jack O'Brien is a big coward. He's afraid of everything. Including intense tastes. Don't mention

any sour apples. He actually gets mad. He starts salivating uncontrollably like pavlov's dog wait rachel have you ever had an apple that's not a granny smith though i feel like i have but i just don't granny smith's my go-to i'm not messing around i'm not even looking at other apples at the grocery store i feel like new apples what are they putting in there okay i'm recently a little bit like shooketh this morning i'm gonna be honest because i just i didn't just realize but like it's kind of been in the back of my brain but it's kind of been brought to my attention

that all of the candles that i've been burning in my house is just filled with cancerous materials and now all of a sudden i'm like well what else has it what else do i need to cut out of my life that brings me joy and i feel like uh a new apple on the scene, screaming artificial. I want to know what was in your candles. Now I'm afraid that. Guys, any candle, any candle you've ever burned in your life is just cutting minutes off of the end. Is that true? We're done.

It's Christmas time. Yeah. I love the smell of Christmas. We've been doing candles for a while. I feel like, i don't know and i guess we've been dying of cancer dying of cancer for a while dying of cancerous situations later on that's true that's true i'm at the i'm at the point in my place that it's like it's christmas time i want to feel festive you know maybe later on in life i'm not going to want to be around. I'm going to be old and just rickety, and I'm going to enjoy my time now with my candles. That's the situation that I've been faced this morning.

Yeah, that's how I feel about heroin, too. So you just do it. We're all going to die someday. Live your life, man. Live your life. Right. Yeah, slow it down a little bit with a little bit of heroin. All right, Rachel, we're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment.

First, we're going to tell our listeners a couple of the things we're talking about today. We're going to talk about water sommeliers. That's a thing. And we're going to talk about the real life drama going on over at the Christmas Story house. The house from the film Christmas Story. All of that plenty more but first rachel we like to ask our guests what is something from your search history oh my search history right now okay this is gonna sound crazy and maybe a little untrue but i am building a hot tub right what wow wood so i've been i've been looking up kind of things that i need to

know about that yeah it's already built actually i built it this weekend it's up it's up and adam now i'm just connecting like the piping and the electricity is this weird thing that i've chosen to do no that's awesome that's the coolest thing i've ever heard. How do you build a hot tub? I assume you start with a tub. Yeah, you're kind of like building from scratch. So I found this company that kind of sends you all the wood and the pieces that you would need. It's essentially like a master class blue apron situation or like an Ikea, a of elevated ikea furniture uh that's very expensive so i actually built a sauna uh like a year and a half ago the beginning of the pandemic i was like what am i gonna do with my time i have a backyard and that's working out well enough that you're like on the next thing it hasn't caught fire that's impressive and it hasn't collapsed

wow so i built that and then i just decided what's next i'm gonna do this with the hot tub so that's my most recent search i just put the liner in yesterday so that's how often are you saunaing in your home sauna because that's something sauna like once or twice a week it's probably not great to do every single day or maybe it is i don't know but i i do it like once or twice a week it's probably not great to do every single day or maybe it is i don't know but i i do it like once or twice a week probably like on the weekends on sunday it's great i like grew up this is gonna sound bougie and it's really not i grew up with a sauna but it was made of tinfoil like it was not nice at all yeah i thought you're gonna say i grew up in a sauna i was raised in a sauna i was born in a sauna. My whole house. And so I kind of always have just done it since I was younger, probably like way too young to even be in one. And so I always wanted my own.

So I just freaking built one, you know? That's really badass. That is the cool. Like most people were like, I made bread. And it's like, shut up. But like that is actually really cool. Yeah. And a hot tub.

So how close are you to the completion of the hot tub i'm pretty close i have to do like the plumbing and like the electrical right now that seems like the hardest part it's no laying the foundation for the hot tub was the sketchiest because i was really worried about it that's it right now i don't know oh yeah wow that's it right now i'm showing a picture yeah that's it that's the one that i built your backyard that's my backyard yeah man i was picturing something way no offense but i was picturing a real piece of shit when you were talking about having built a hot tub it might be a full piece of shit it might have collapsed but no laying the foundation was a little bit sketch just making sure everything's like super level this is so nerdy and dorky but that was the

hardest part and then the electrical and the plumbing all have like my my work looked at so i don't like electrocute myself in a big yeah yeah i was gonna say that's yeah the electrical is the part that any at-home thing stops for me that's the scariest yeah totally i agree i'm all about like diy everything in my house like i'm building like you know i'm i'm putting up shelves and and i'm uh you know mounting televisions on the wall but then as soon as like a light breaks i'm like oh we gotta call special guy because i am not getting near wires. I just won't. I won't deal with electrical because I will die.

I will say it's like really, it's really cheesy, but I feel like all of this stuff I used to be really afraid of. And like, I probably wouldn't even have mounted a TV. But then there was something that just like happened to the pandemic. I was so bored that I was just like, the first thing I built was actually my back deck. I figured out how to build a deck. And as soon as I accomplished it, again, this is so dorky, but I just felt very powerful. And I was like, I can build a house from the ground up if I wanted to and I had the time. So, yeah.

Mount those TVs, baby. Mount those TVs. This is the opposite of dorky. I'm pretty positive of that. I mean, I know as a dork, I will say that like building shit with your hands is I think the opposite of dorky. Nah, nah, it's dorky, man. Yeah, I mean, it depends what you're building. Building a deck like a nerd. Like a nerd.

Yeah. Oh, I built a house. Pushes up his glasses. I built a house. Pushes up his glasses. I built a house. Fucking loser. Yeah, no, it's just cool as fuck. Yeah, it is. What is something you think is overrated?

Overrated at this point in time in my life, I got to go with eggnog. I'm really trying to get into it as an adult i feel like i had it one time when i was a kid and i was like this is disgusting and as an adult i've recently purchased like a new carton and i'm like you know what i'm gonna enjoy this people really love this beverage it's in all the christmas movies i'm watching it's disgusting it is absolutely terrible it's called egg nog yeah yeah stop right there the name alone atrocious you got to be down bad to chug those things back i feel like it's a perfect name both for i love eggnog and i think it's the perfect name and you hate eggnog and it's also kind of the perfect name

for that because it's just i don't know It's the right name. They definitely nailed the name. Yeah, they nailed it. There's something like nog where it's just like viscous and vomit. It's like the noise you make before you vomit. What even is a nog? Egg nog. Egg nog. It's like that's vomit noises.

Yeah. Is there actual egg in it? Like I've really not looked into the ingredients. I think there's egg yolk. I assume. Terrible, awful, awful move. Yeah, so, like, the thing where you were saying you were trying to get into it is, like, somebody being like, I'm trying to start smoking. Like, it's so bad for you.

It's like you're picking a thing that I wish I had never tasted because it's so good. You're addicted to the nog. Wait, do you have it outside of the holidays? No, no, no, no, no. But when the holidays come around, when I have a carton in the house, it's going down. It doesn't last long, huh? It doesn't last long. I even tried to get the almond milk nog version, so creamer to put in my coffee.

No, no, no, I've tried both okay i'm trying i'm really trying to make this a thing in my life and even like filtered with coffee i'm like this shit is still disgusting do you like milkshakes i love milkshakes okay they they they share a lot of properties they're not identical don't come at me with nog and milkshakes being the same thing. They're not close. The consistency is so similar. The consistency, yeah, but so is like a light mud. You know what I mean?

It's not... The consistency is not the point as much as the flavor. And the flavor of egg nog is very specific. Yeah, it's got a lot of uh what's it called egg and nog yeah it's got a lot of nog too much nog honestly yeah it's good it's got a lot of spices in there they yeah the spices actually i don't i don't mind i'm usually behind that exactly yeah yeah

all right what's something you think is underrated okay i'm gonna twist this on its head a little bit i'm gonna come at you guys and give you a little surprise i think something that's underrated is milky cocktails around milky cocktails just not eggnog like give me a what are those called white rations last year i became obsessed with this cocktail that was literally just like milk and peppermint schnapps and i would do like a little rim of crushed up candy canes i would throw those babies back i was not feeling great the next day but i feel like people don't people you know there's a there's a whole bad vibe around milk these days there's other things you can put in there oat milk almond milk all the things milk even have like lactose free regular milk no it's yeah anything you need

baby yeah anything you need yeah they've really figured out different ways to market milk and non-milk products to a degree where i'm just like well you don't have to drink white liquid like people it's not like the law where it's like, well, I got to drink some white liquid. It's the morning. It's like, no, you know, you can just avoid it. You don't have to. Yeah. Like, it's just, it's not the law.

It is one of the only sources of protein that my kids are fond of. Interesting. So, like, that's where. Not chicken? No. No. They don't like chicken? they come in they come in and out on that but like yeah if it's chicken it has to be basically like ketchup soup with small

like you know sprinkles of of pieces of chicken mcnuggets i mean interesting yeah yeah but why what is it because it's. It's loaded with sugar. No, I know why they like ketchup. No, no, no. Why they like milk is also it's sweet and loaded with sugar. No, but why don't they like chicken? Chicken. Everyone likes chicken.

Yeah. Chicken best. Question for the ages. Yeah. I don't know. They don't really like meat that much, to be honest. What the fuck? Oh.

Yeah. PETA got to them early, huh? Yeah. It's weird. Good for them. Yeah. Raising a bunch of libs. That's right.

No, that's cool. Good for them. But milk, you know, got a lot of protein. Yeah. It also has a very powerful lobby. I think that's the real reason that we're still drinking milk is people are like, oh, my God, it's making my insides like explode with gas. And they're like, yeah, yeah.

But that's part of it. You're going to keep drinking more of that. Yeah. If you're a real man, you you you allow yourself to feel bloated and feel like shit after drinking milk. like shit after drinking milk the one time that heart disease went down in the united states was during world war ii because that was the one time that there were dairy rations and they just like kind of buried that shit because they didn't no way because they have a very powerful yeah yeah i'm cereal as milk yeah i drink non-fat milk okay that. That didn't exist back then. Yeah.

So I hope I don't die because I drink that. I drink like a gallon of that a week. Do you really? I do. I love milk. Oh, my God. You are a milky boy. I'm a big milky boy. Are you just drinking a glass of milk at night?

Yeah. Yeah, so what I do is I will just, my dessert will be like a banana and a giant tall glass of really cold, nonfat milk. Wow. Or at night, I'll just like have cinnamon toast crunched in some milk. That sounds nice. Yeah, so that's mostly what it is. But that banana happens sometimes. I don't think I've seen an adult drink a glass of any kind of milk yeah people look at me weird i don't like to do it in public yeah it's like

i don't want people to know how much i enjoy a nice cold tall glass of milk you've probably just not met many people who are as good a boys as uh mad as a really good boy he drinks all his little glass of milk yeah okay yeah i love milk so and milky cocktails though milky cocktails i assume milky cocktails guys get into it yeah so what's your number one is just milk with peppermint schnapps i think that that's a good that's a good go-to um you could put a little peppermint schnapps you could put a little vodka in there if you're feeling really spicy but the key is guys is the crushed up candy canes that go along the rim then yeah then you're laughing and how do they party how do they stick to the thing but i'm you like dip it in milk like you were making a margarita you kind of like make the dip it in milk

dip it in milk and then you dip it in the candy canes wow and then you flip it and then you pour a cocktail in i'm gonna make one tonight actually i've fired myself up wait so have you already pre-crushed your candy canes or do you buy like a crushed mix i put them the candy canes into a ziploc and then i get my meat smasher yeah and i'm just going to town yeah hell yeah i was gonna be really disappointed if you built your own hot tub, but you like had to get your candy canes pre-crushed. Actually bring somebody from Craigslist who comes to my house and crushes my candy canes. A taskmaster to just crush up my candy canes. Yeah.

Blue Apron sends you a bag pre-crushed. Yeah. All right.

How do you feel about biscuits? Hi, I'm Akilah Hughes, and I'm so excited about my new podcast, Rebel Spirit, where I head back to my hometown in Kentucky and try to convince my high school to change their racist mascot, the Rebels, into something everyone in the South loves, the biscuits. I was a lady rebel. Like, what does that even mean? The Boone County Rebels will stay the Boone County Rebels with the image of the biscuits. It's right here in black and white in print. A lion.

An individual that came to the school saying that God sent him to talk to me about the mascot switch. As a leader, you choose hills that you want to die on. Why would we want to be the losing team? I'd just take all the other stuff out of it. On segregation academies, when civil rights said that we need to integrate public schools, these charter schools were exempt from that. Bigger than a flag or mascot. You have to be ready for serious backlash. Listen to Rebel Spirit on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

And we're back. back baby and as we were talking about up top you know fewer people are drinking milk fewer people are drinking sugary beverages fewer people are like alcohol is getting a bad name in these these days and so i i feel like i haven't seen a number on this but i feel like people are drinking more water today than probably at any point in human history just as like on a per person per body basis yeah which sucks because water is boring oh yeah yeah no there is that there is that part like yeah i would much rather be drinking mountain dew or a diet coke 100 personally yeah but my wife insists that i drink water she she like checks on my water consumption daily she's my wife like she cares my wife has a has a like big water container thing that actually coaches

you through. It has the little things written on it. This is a thing that was given to her so she didn't go out and get it. It's in our house and it yells at you. It's like, chug, chug. Keep going. You're almost there.

Alright, now start over. That's one for the day. You're almost there. Almost there. All right, now start over. That's one for the day. You're a piece of garbage. You piece of dried out garbage. You would blow away in a stiff wind. You look like a pile of ash. But anyways, I don't know. How do you guys feel about just water in general?

I try to drink a lot of it. Like every single night I will go to bed with a full cup on my nightstand. And then by the morning, there's just like, you know, the top layer is just like collected dust from. Oh, there's hairs and there's a spider still alive. Yeah. There's like little bubbles. Do you ever get those little bubbles in the water when you've left it for too long? I don't even understand those bubbles. Those bubbles are like,

you've just been sitting. And it's like, yeah, well, we got some guys in here doing stuff. We got some stuff going on. Don't worry about it. We're having our own little ecosystem. I agree with you. Water is boring. I usually have to put something in it. I usually put like a hydration packet to make it taste like fruit punch so that I'm not actually drinking water.

But I'm getting extremely hydrated in the process. I just put ice in it. If it's cold enough, then I will really, really enjoy it. But yeah, no, I find water to be boring and useless yeah i don't think the body human body needs water i think you're a water truther i'm a water truther i think the water lobby is trying to convince us that it needs water when really what we need is tall glass of non-fat milk that's right some love and care i do think that like putting a glass of water on your bedside table and feeling like it's your duty to drink it which i also do is probably like that that's

not something our parents did our parents were like why would i drink water right yeah yeah like when i could when i could dissolve some instant coffee in there i can't remember a single moment from my childhood i remember smashing some milk and putting like the chocolate coffee in there. I can't remember a single moment from my childhood. I remember some mash and some milk and putting like the chocolate syrup in there. I would drink milk all day long. There's not a single occurrence that I remember in my life of drinking water when I was a child. Yeah. Orange juice was the healthiest thing to drink as far as I was concerned when I was a kid.

Yeah. Dr. Pepper did no problems for dr pepper was uh medically advisable yeah it's a doctor yeah made it uh you know over the counter medicine yeah exactly it's pepper mostly yeah no i used to drink water i remember the first time i got totally fucking like made fun of for the water that i drank because we had these neighbors over the sonnenbergs bunch of assholes and uh they were like fucking sonnenberg they asked her oh you guys uh can i get a glass of water i was like okay and i brought back water and they drank it and fucking this kid he was just like is this tap water and i literally didn't know what he meant i was

like what is tap water it's water yeah like you know how like water comes out of things yeah it's from the tap it's like what's a tap bro it's water it's coming from the water guy and yeah and i found out that like people didn't drink tap water and i was like okay well what do you drink and they had like one of those sparklets things and i was like you fucking bougie pieces of shit so this is the sonnenberg the main thing but you know since we're all doing it constantly we might as well be good and thoughtful about it and now there is such a thing as a water sommelier there's this vice article it's full of absolute bullshit claims like that water on its own is actually not good for the human body come on

i'm gonna read this quote uh hot take h2o with nothing else is distilled water with zero minerality which is not good for the human body it's great for your car battery it's great for your electrical appliances first of all no it's not my friend what are you talking about you don't even know how water works asshole drop your phone in there it'll start working better yeah but it's shit for the human body that's so funny that's like that just like the kid from idiocracy going water you mean like from the toilet but he's like gone so galaxy brain about water that he like hasn't like he's stopped understanding the very basic properties of water that like you shouldn't put electrical appliances in them anyways water you

mean it's great for swimming in yeah that's what it's great for shower but it's not great inside body right so that's what's sweat is is the body taking all the disgusting water and putting it out the body exactly thank you everyone knows everyone knows that yeah but that is one of the water sommeliers who so you know their claim is that like you need water minerality it it's probably true that pure distilled water may not be as good for the human body as water with minerals in it tap water tap water yes we're gonna get to the superiority of tap water by the way because tap water so tap water is overseen by the epa and the epa is not answering to like it when it comes to tap water, the EPA is just trying to make the water clean. The bottled water that you drink is overseen by the FDA, which the FDA is beholden to a lot of lobbies and very underfunded.

So you're more likely to be poisoned by bottled water than you are by tap water like even to the degree that like the very baseline like what you are allowed to have in water tap water has higher standards than bottled water just like are you listening loving this are you listening the sonnenbergs yeah i was trying to protect you yeah also a lot of the minerals they talk about in this article are things that quote could be good for you um when they're like potassium zinc iron magnesium these minerals could provide important health benefits like lowering blood pressure improving blood circulation strengthening bones but i i do feel like water in a lot of ways is operating at the level of like placebo effect like where

you're just like really not not that like you don't need water it's just placebo but like the idea that like one water is better than the other has a lot to do with what you are bringing to the experience yeah it's like people i know used to like only buy fiji water you guys remember fiji bottled water i think fiji is the worst like consistently worst water i've ever tasted well to me dasani worse than dasani i don't Dasani I fucking like, actually. So I'm wrong. You like Dasani? I gotta go. I gotta go.

This is what I'm saying. Eggnog boy. Eggnog and Dasani. Hook it up. You got a weird tongue, bro. Dasani was the first cold bottled water I ever tasted, and I tasted it at a time when bottled water was a novelty. Right.

So Dasani is nostalgic for you? Yeah. Well, it's just like it got implanted in there in some way that I can't help. Because, yeah, I don't think I'm right. I'm not like Dasani is actually good and everybody else is wrong. And I'm right. I think it just got like locked into into my brain in some way. I'm associating Dasani with cold, good water.

Well, people used to do that with Fiji water, too. I mean, I swear, people acted like it was the good water. And I was like, I think you just think that because the label has got a waterfall on it. Pretty. I think people are just suck suckers for like a good marketing campaign like a liquid death number one yeah you know that company just like got listed for trillions of dollars so much money and all they're selling is canned water which by the way canned water maybe it's good for the environment i don't know always terrible always i feel like

i'm always drinking pennies it's never been good not i don't know always terrible always i feel like i'm always drinking pennies it's never been good not once oh have you tried drinking pennies they're good they're put a little penny in your water i'll drink liquid pennies before i drink all my opinions are terrible all my opinions about drinks it's got a smack of pennies in there yeah i mean that what that's what you know i i've started noticing about tap water once i had like whatever sparklets or distilled or special rich guy water is that i'll be like oh yeah i guess los angeles like public tap water does smack of a little bit of rust but it's not like it's not bad it's just kind of i don't

know it gives it a little kick that's what i like to think i gotta say i think like drinking growing up drinking tap water might make you like more of a superior human like you know i have a really small dog and he's very close to the ground he i just call him like a garbage dumpster like he'll just eat anything so he never gets sick His stomach is just like rock hard. I grew up in the middle of nowhere and we drank out of a well. And every so often you'd have to put like a little like bleach or something like that in there to like kind of clean out the well. But we're still drinking it. So like I just grew up drinking a little bit of bleach every now and again.

Now I'm rock solid building saunas and hot tubs. You know what I'm saying? Like tap water doesn't hurt. Yeah. When we started this call, actually, you were walking across your room with two big pieces of lumber on either shoulder like Arnold when we meet him in Commando. Yeah, and a beer helmet that was just connected to bleach. Which I was like, are you supposed to be drinking straight bleach? Yeah. I mean, the best tap water I ever had like i don't know if does new york city

still claim that it has like the best tap water in the world it really i bought into that in the early 2000s i was like this is new yorkers and their fucking water always talking it's the water that's the difference that's why the bread tastes better shut off yeah god you don't know what you're talking about it's the water literally like they've opened up brooklyn water bagel like stores in la where they just talk about we we ship the water across america and we get the good water i'm like this is this is all fake this is fake there is some like cool poetry to like the minerality of water like basically yeah the water picks up so the reason that water that is absolutely devoid of minerals actually tastes bad to people and like you do see that over and over

it like comes near the bottom and taste tests even though you would think like well it's pure so it would taste like nothing at least but when you put water without anything in it next to like in your mouth it actually leeches the minerals out of your mouth and then that's what you're tasting is it like and so water just on its own like really in absorbs a lot of like minerals and stuff. And so you're like water just naturally is full of like minerals because it's, you know, it's traveling through vast underground, like lakes and reservoirs that are, you know, all rushing under our feet.

Like there's like a cool poetry to it that, so where you live is determined like and what the water tastes like where you live and what minerals you are getting in your body is determined by like what the underground like oceans of fresh water that are under your feet are like around which is i think that's like cool and kind of yeah there's something like natural and beautiful about that you know or it sounds good but i agree you know with rachel that you would it'd be nice to put a little bit of it's a little sugar flavor in it yeah or bleach like minerals are good but is sugar not a mineral thank you that's a real question is sugar not a mineral yeah oh what is a mineral a rock

yeah it's rocks yeah it's just like it's determined by the rocks so we're drinking little rocks that's a mineral yeah it's like the the rock flavor they so the sommelier i thought this was the best their best contribution in the article they said water can also feel dry silky creamy or even sparkly when you're drinking it, which I agree with. That's a good description of some of the things that I've tasted in water before. Morning water, you know, leftover from your nightstand always feels dry. Yeah. Might be because it's high in calcium, they say. That's the one that leaves a dry mouthfeel. Oh. Yeah.

Water that's low in minerality also leaves a dry mouthfeel and can also end an almost metallic taste because it soaks up the minerals in your mouth. Binder explained. That's so strange. Yeah. Kind of grossed out by water. Yeah. I went, I went looking in vice or I went looking elsewhere because vice would are cowards and they wouldn't name names of like what the best bottled water is. Cause I,

I'm curious. It does. It does seem like when you look at all the different taste tests, like at least in the top half, you find tap water, just like tap water is as good as bottled water it was right the whole time as bottled water and like there's just huge variability on almost everything else this honestly i just feel vindicated and it makes me feel better about the years i spent drinking

just straight hose water because i always thought water out the hose was the best water because it was the most flavorful. Because there's something going on with the nozzle of the hose. I think hose water is not supposed to be drank. Is that right? I think it's just ultimate tap water. It's like top tier tap. Yeah, but probably the first little few gushes of water that are coming out of there have just been like sitting in the sun. That's the most flavorful.

Right. The first few gushes of water. Just taking in all the minerals from the hose. Yeah. You get all those nice amoebas and then they meet all your other amoebas in your body and they become friends. Why you shouldn't drink water from a garden hose. Written by one of the Sonnenbergs. Yeah. Dasani.

Big Dasani. By Nestle. Owned by the Sonnenbergs. Yeah. In reality, most outdoor faucets and garden hoses, those made prior to 2014, are not meant to be used for drinking water. Oh, whatever, dude. I'd turn out fine for the most part, I think. Yeah.

Do you guys have a favorite bottled water flavor or bottled water i guess i guess we've we've covered that yours matt is tap water yeah well yeah yeah if but that bottled water my favorite would probably be like you know arrowhead i feel like that is to me this was like the like classic it's just like it's cheap got a little nozzle i like that i feel like that is to me this was like the like classic it's just like it's cheap got a little nozzle i like that i feel like mine's a little like frou-frou but evian i feel like tastes the most like there's no taste to it it's just water yeah even smart water sometimes can have a taste to it and dasani for sure just tastes like yeah there's dasani also i feel like i'm a woman in vogue when i'm drinking it i feel like i'm flying first class if i'm getting a bottle of avion at the airport everyone thinks i'm flying first class

is avion not also a skin cream am i crazy i don't think so but you I see. Let's go with it. I swear. They should. Hannibal Lecter mentioned Evian Skin Cream in the movie Silence of the Lambs, but I could be wrong about that. It just sounds like it. It's a very French name. It does. It just sounds hydrating. I know there was like a mister that they sold for a while that like you can mist your face with Evian water. Oh, I love that. Oh my God.

I need to find that. Just the height of class. I'm looking up Evian water. Oh, I love that. Oh my god. I need to find that. Just the height of class. I'm looking up Evian skin cream. I would hire people from Craigslist to come over and just mist my face with Evian while I worked. I think Evian did do well in the public taste

tests. I guess Mother Jones did one. There was a college that did a big bottled water taste test. And Evian kind of fared well both times dasani was like ranked near the top for one and then like near the bottom for the other so i feel like it's it's very subjective i guess i feel like dasani is like cornered the market on like movie theaters like it's the only yeah water that you can find there.

I will have an extra large bag of the saltiest popcorn I've ever had in my life. And I'm still not touching Dasani. I will die. I will die in my seat. I could be. Yeah, I would. I would never have water with popcorn because it's just like that. You're basically creating an ocean water in your mouth because it's just like that you're basically creating an

like ocean water in your in your mouth because it's like salt and water i'm just saying sometimes you get like the chocolate you get the candies you get the popcorn you're like okay at least i can be good by getting some water right i'm not gonna go full gremlin and get you know vanilla coke but if it's designing i won't do it i'll go full gremlin yeah i'm pro tap water but i was just like thinking about like where i would get the tap water and i guess it like there's something and it's probably incorrect but like going to a bathroom and getting water from the tap of at a public place like kind of grosses me out so i probably wouldn't do that true i mean yeah i guess i wouldn't go to like the subway bathroom and just you know be like i'm gonna fill up my water bottle

but you know at home like if you were to fill up your water bottle at home you would probably fill it up in the the tap from the kitchen sink but there's no difference between that and going to your tub and just putting it in uh you know from there is that weird i don't know yeah i'm never doing that i'm doing that all the time i'm gonna do that right now i've got to be desperado if i'm going and filling up my water bottle from the bathroom that means i am so hungover i can't even make it to the kitchen. Yeah, well, that happens. I'm just saying. You know, like, it's all pipes.

There's got to be a reason for it, though. Yeah. All right. Let's take a break from talking about serious stuff like this, and we'll talk about the house from The Christmas Story.

Listen to the Amber and Lacey, Lacey and Amber show on Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

And we're back. And there's so that are you guys fans of A Christmas Story? Oh, yeah. I watched it for the first time last year. What did you think? I liked it. It was cute. It's cute. It's dark. It's always darker than I expect it to be. You're talking about A Christmas Story,

like You'll Shoot Your Eye Out Kid? Yeah. That's like the ultimate... That was the movie where I realized, like, oh, every Christmas that I've ever had and seen has been the boomers trying to remake this exact Christmas. Right. It's it is like the classic Christmas. It's like a lot of Christmas songs and big presents.

And, you know, remember the 50s. That's what it feels like. And obsession with guns. Yeah, and everyone wants a gun. And I was always surprised that, you know, people would put soap in their kids' mouths. Wild. I always thought that was strange because I was like,

well, the words aren't literally dirty. Yeah. They're not. Like, the soap always seemed like a strange. That'll learn you. Yeah. Or some linch, maybe. Some bleach.

Right. I don't know. Yeah. Okay, I take it back. This movie's not cute. It was like a snapshot in time of being like, I can't believe the world used to be like this. Yeah. People really used to abuse kids.

It was awful. People didn't like kids. Didn't he take off his belt at one point, too? Yeah. abuse kids yeah people didn't like kids did he take off his belt at one point too yeah this is this is a like different world where people didn't like kids and the kids were just like okay but yeah everybody just like hates him and is like ah shut up there's a lot of like similarities between a christmas story and stephen king's it in terms of just kind of the abusive kids and people not talking about it. But yeah, no, I liked the movie a lot. It has a huge legions of fans. So somebody bought the house back in the early 2000s and turned it into it's in Cleveland. That's where they shot the movie. They bought the house and turned it into like a museum. Weird.

The fan, the fan who just buy the house and live in the house. You fucking weirdo. So he was already in the business of making leg lamps. So like real, you know, next level upset. What a life. Yo, wait, wait. So before he bought, he bought the house from a Christmas Story, he was a leg lamp builder. He was a leg lamp builder. From the movie.

Like, was that inspired? Must have been. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, somebody got him that as a gag gift, and he was like, I could build these. I'm going to do this. I could build these, and this is my life now. What the?

Okay. And you can actually rent the house and spend the night there why it's not that good of a movie the owner makes leg lamps i'm not staying in that hell no yeah i've seen enough tiktoks of like little cameras hidden in shower heads no yeah yeah to stay there on december 23rd it'll cost you $1,145. That's not that bad, actually. To stay there on the nights of Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, $3,595. I mean, just go to Disneyland.

That's a stupid thing to buy. But if you really, really like the movie, I mean, I guess. But who wants to spend christmas in cleveland right that's they're kind of limiting their audience there right yeah it's very strange sold out is it do we know if it's sold out this year how's it doing staying there i don't so probably not that well because uh the guy is selling the house right now and there's like some weird like battle happening between the owner of the house is selling it and like there's a a person who played a bully in the movie zach ward is that who it is zach ward yeah i don't ask me why i know that. I was very into the short-lived sitcom Titus,

and his brother was played by this guy, Zach Ward, who was the bully in A Christmas Story. Oh, right. So this is actually somebody else. This is Yano Anaya, who played Grover Dill, of course. But he is trying to put together a group to buy the house so that it can be like a job for everybody who was in that movie to go and relive the. Jesus Christ. I mean, listen, first of all, can I just say the house is not a memorable part of the movie?

Like, I don't know. What does the house look like? It's not like the bathroom. That's it. Yeah. I remember the lamp. I remember the stairs because he's standing on top of the stairs wearing the fucking bunny costume. But like if it was a house from home alone, I'd be like, I get it because that I remember that house.

I was like, whoa, that's a huge fucking house. Yeah. But the Christmas story house, it is. There's not a movie defined by the house. Yeah. I feel like it'd be God like you'd go into there and it would be dark vibes. It would be. You'd be like, there's some ghosty situations happening here.

Hundred percent. There would definitely be a killer like a killer dancing clown is trying to get you to go into the gutter like this is this is very strange yeah it definitely had like a dysfunctional alcoholic family vibe 100 yeah yes like that so wouldn't that be fun they're like you can even smell the beer in the seat cushions. In the carpet. But yeah, what would your number one house be? Like, I guess Wayne Manor would be pretty fun. Yeah, I'd be down for the Batcave.

Kiwi's Playhouse, I feel like. Yeah. You know. Oh, I would never go into that house. I would say the little cabin from The Holiday. Oh. You guys know that movie? No.

Yes, I do. I thought you were going to say little cabin from Cabin from the Holiday. Oh. You guys know that movie? No. Yes, I do. I thought you were going to say Little Cabin from Cabin in the Woods. Absolutely not. No, if we're sticking to Christmas movies. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The Holiday is a must-watch, you guys. Yeah, I think you'd dig it. Yeah.

All right. The one, the studio apartment, if we're just, if we're talking about just holiday movies, it would be the studio apartment that Billy Bob Thornton stays in in Bad Santa. Yeah.

Yeah, that's similar to this though, right? Yeah. Yeah, that's, I think that's where I would, and he's only in it for one scene and he's just throwing a beer against the wall because he's mad that the alarm clock woke him up. Yeah.

That's a great movie. If we're opening this up to movies outside of the holiday holiday movies i would do i was obsessed with spy kids when i was younger and i remember my dad took me to see that movie and when he drove me home i was like looking at all the vents in the car and then when i got home i was like looking at every yeah you know little cabinet for something with secret passages and secret hidden gadgets. Secret passages, gadgets. Yeah, for sure.

A little microwave that you just press a button and then a McDonald's order pops up. That's what I'm talking about. So fucking cool. Yeah. But yeah, not the Christmas Story house. No, absolutely not.

I don't even know what that... I literally... What did that house look like? I don't know what it... It's just a two-story small house that is like yellow with green trim. The person isn't disclosing, in case you guys are interested, the person isn't disclosing the asking price. Oh, come on. Only qualified buyers who have signed NDAs will find out about the pricing details.

And people who want to buy the house have to make an offer along with details about themselves including info about their background and wealth plus they have to write a theme essay like the one ralphie is assigned in the movie titled why i want to buy a christmas story house and museum okay so this guy's going out yeah this is a really really weird way to get the weirdest possible person to own you don't deserve Yeah. You don't deserve my house. Yeah. Like, just sell it to a normal person. You don't want to sell it to someone who's like, I ain't got to write an essay about how my favorite part

was when the kid put his tongue on the pole because then I got to see a child's tongue. I always liked that. It's like, that's the guy who's gonna buy the house you don't want that this should be season two of the watcher i don't know if you guys saw that on netflix right i haven't seen it yeah it does have this should be yeah season two is this guy sells this house and then tries to scare them away so that he can buy it back for really cheap he's made his money on the sale buy it back real cheap yeah i like it it's a good way to flip a property the the actor who was like you should we should buy it for the cast and then like it could be a live museum where the cast could come and

adult versions of the characters you knew from your childhood would be there to just make you sad but anyways that's his plan and then they like got in a fight out in front of the house that was like really depressing where like the current owner like ran up it was like get the fuck off my house get off of my house and they like were like shouting at each other all these fans are just like what's happening is there a video of that there is it's on i'd rather watch that than the movie again to be honest yeah no for real i mean that is i like that there's drama you know yeah so that's that's a lot of fun it's another sorry go ahead they did i was just gonna say they didn't they just make a sequel with the the guy because I saw on HBO max,

I was like, it said a Christmas story like two or again or whatever they called it. And, uh, it was the kid who played Ralphie, but you know, older. And I was like, I think it's the same actor,

which that kind of depressed me a little bit. See, I don't think so. That actually made me feel better because you could have some actors who are are fighting over an old house that was in five minutes of the movie. Or you could have this gentleman who has, you know, he's back on top, baby. Yeah. His IMDb star meter is rising. Yeah, good for him.

I mean, I guess I was happy for him him but i just hadn't seen him in a while and you know when someone's like a really cute kid and you see them as an adult and you go oh buddy that's actually my favorite thing to do with christmas movies i was just recently watching a santa claus and i was like what's that kid up to um don't don't look it up i've now i have to yeah and by that kid are you talking about Tim Allen what's that kid doing Tim Allen just being like

cancel culture well that's what he's doing they always just look a little sad they go from being very cute to like you know one thing I'm a little worried about with my daughter because she's 8 weeks old right now and she's so adorable and

i'm just like adorable kids ugly sometimes yeah sometimes or sometimes they're just they stay stunning 100 of the time for the entirety of their life yeah i don't mind if she's ugly you know and i'm gonna tell her that constantly i don't even care that you're ugly you should be more ugly i think right but yeah i'm gonna buy that house well just don't try and do it so so the guy the the way the argument ended the the owner current owner apologized to the public for his behavior claimed his anger was due to his concerns that the actor was trying to scam him and he but his version of a scam is he said he's organizing a gofundme campaign seeking donations from fans

to buy the house i'm not selling the house through gofundme so fans should not contribute to that fund under false pretenses thinking their money is going toward buying the house i don't think he knows what like gofundme yeah no he has no idea what's going on that's not where i'm selling it but also that is a little bit weird that they're making a go fund me for them yeah no it's all weird yes everyone involved in this story is freaking me the fuck out yeah it's demolish it tear it down yeah yeah i like that buy it and tear it down like the house of poltergeist just needs to go away. Let the ghosts of Christmas story out.

Yeah. Well, Rachel. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm just thinking about it. I know we got to end this, but I was just thinking about how that movie ends. And I'd forgotten about this until I replayed the whole movie in my head. It ends with them fucking up the turkey and then they go to a Chinese restaurant and the chinese people sing fa la la la la but with a racist chinese accent oh fun and and i'm like yeah that's how that movie ends huh cool classic classic great movie i'm gonna watch

every time I'm on the show and I listen back to all the recordings and I hear the song choices and I'm like, Oh, these are all really good. But for some reason, I've never heard you guys play a single pod yourself, a gun parody, bought a B story in which I take a song like kiss from a Rose and make it

the synopsis of the episode that I have just currently watched. So maybe one of these days, you guys will play a Butterbeast story. I write all these parody songs for every episode of The Sopranos and The Wire. They're very good. They're very good. I think, actually, we had

a guest actually shouted out one of your songs before, and we didn't play it, but we usually do play songs. Do we have your permission to play the song man of course you have my permission what's your favorite oh i think it would probably be it would be the under pressure but about long-term parking the episode where you know we see what happens to adriana laserva oh Oh, yeah. Oh, also, we don't play these songs usually because of copyright things.

So we just direct them to them. Oh, is that right? Yeah. So we'll do that. Oh, yeah. No, you definitely won't be able to play because everything is copyrighted. Basically, what I'm doing is illegal

because I just take the instrumental and then I sing over it. But, yeah, you know. Nobody has to know. Who's going to know? All right. Well well we will link off to the long-term parking under pressure i mean maybe we can play under pressure no one's ever gotten sued over that song right i mean but if you play it with other lyrics i don't know parody law is weird you guys got lawyers though right yeah they're very cool and understanding all right well
