Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. Platinum. That's the powerful backing of American Express. Terms and conditions apply. Visit mx.ca slash business platinum. So for CinePulp, we do this thing called re-Washington's. It's when we will re-watch a movie that we've already done for Cinephobe, sometimes years ago. But we do this live and we have our patreons, patreon.com slash counterdings, come in the chat, ask us questions, join in in the kind of the frivolities, if you will. I think, what does, what does, you've been on, right? Can't hardly wait.
Starting point is 00:01:03 Yep, can't hardly wait. He was on that one. So we redid the movie Jjitsu, which I don't know if you've heard of it Tony I have not has Nicolas Cage and Frank Grillo Frank Grillo is the the bad guy from Captain America Winter Soldier. Okay, he was a shield agent. It turns out he's a hydra, you know, you see his face You know who he is immediately Yeah You see his face, you know who he is immediately. Yeah, he's like a character actor. Yeah. He was, he is, he is When I Googled Jujutsu
Starting point is 00:01:27 I'm saying it on the microphone. I can't hear what you're saying. I know it was off, sorry. When I Googled Jujutsu it's places I can go. Yeah, no, Jujutsu movie is what you gotta Google. It's Tony Jaws in it as well. But it is absolutely just a predator ripoff.
Starting point is 00:01:43 It is just, it's the same thing, it's an alien, comes from outer space to Earth once every six years to fight nine people and then it goes off. So it's basically like- 2020, wow. Blood, sport and predator mixed together. Like this thing comes for sport, but also it wants like a tournament, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:04 But it got me down a rabbit hole of Predator trivia. And did you guys know that the original actor cast to play the Predator in Predator was one and only Jean-Claude Van Damme? Wow. I did not. But it also seems not probable because I knew he was short. And the Pred predator in the movies
Starting point is 00:02:25 like six seven yeah yeah he's five foot six exactly and I don't care about low angles when you stand next to Arnold you need to be tall if you're gonna fight Arnold you gotta be yeah if you're gonna fight otherwise it's just like a Liam Neeson thing where they just fight from the waist up yeah yeah you don't show the legs I wish I would have done that to De Niro and the Irishman that scene where Jerry Actric De Niro was beating the guy up in the deli was Wow man It's unnecessary. That's that's the movie that made me turn on Scorsese really? Yeah, like he just that scene Yeah, but that scene and that movie but I'll tell you why
Starting point is 00:02:55 Because for years I was one of these people like trust the artists let the director why why the studio was always hating Oh the studio wanted to shorten it is all all who cares I want to see a great movie I don't care how long it is and then I saw these corsets movies he was doing for Netflix where they're like do whatever you want We don't care. We just want to have our name next to your name and I realized oh these fuckers actually need an Editor like you need it. You're awful without it. You gotta have guide real yet action Bronson in that movie Oh the boy though. I don't care. Yeah, he plays like a shipping guy, right? No, he's like a mechanic or some butcher or something. Yeah, so I think he's like looking over like a car or something He's doing so I'm just like he's also randomly in
Starting point is 00:03:33 the movie with Pete Davidson It's King of Staten Island. Yeah, whatever. He's like the way that it's got shot. Yeah, I just I didn't need that man I tell him I mean like I I just I didn't need that man. I tell us I like I I just feel like Scorsese needs someone to tell him no and if it's a studio he's surrounded by yes men for all for this point nothing But yes, man, but you know what I get it. I don't get how Zack Snyder is surrounded by yes, man What was the last good movie this motherfucker made? I know he has like a disaster with those Netflix Star Wars spinoff things where What are they called? You know why they're disastrous or why they're so Star Wars heavy
Starting point is 00:04:09 Because apparently he was supposed to do Star Wars Oh, and he got and then like the old Star Wars thing like maybe not. Can we flip it? What's a good movie he's made? I bet's what I'm asking. Let's find out because he said the last bad movie I want to know the first good last bad movies the last movie He did every time for Zack Snyder at any point in time for me. How do how do people reach a certain 300? Okay. All right. That's a banger. That was 2006. Yeah years ago. Yeah, but how do people reach a point? I think I saw this recently with somebody on Amazon who had a deal to Create content for Amazon got paid like 20 million bucks and like did nothing
Starting point is 00:04:44 How do you get to a point in the world where you're just like, yeah, Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, Mag, whoever, give me a ton of money. We're going to put something out that's terrible cause I don't care. And then we're just all good. Like, how do you get to that point in life? They get the money because they've done something else. Just one good thing. That's all you need. Yeah, you need something. That's the key to Hollywood, is just like, what have you done?
Starting point is 00:05:08 If you've done something, oh clearly you must be cool, you got something done. That's how they operate. And not just something, but something that hits a specific target market. So like Phoebe Waller-Bridge did, is that the person who got all the money? That's who you're thinking of from Amazon.
Starting point is 00:05:22 And was it 20 or was it more? I think she got like 50. Like some crazy number from Amazon. And I'm not sure she's done anything since. And it was all because fleabag was such a hit for them and got so many people signed up for prime because of the critical acclaim that it had, but also of a very specific market. And so I think that's what they're trying to do is they'll, they'll give someone
Starting point is 00:05:42 like, Hey, go get the more of those people that Watched your show to come into what it is that we're doing. Yeah, so Snyder did dawn of the dead know for 306 watchmen in 09 and then a little yeah, what watchman was terrible really didn't like it. Nope. I thought it was okay Why is it the best thing? I have three hundreds the best thing he's done. Yeah, 300 That's that you know to be fair 300 is the kind of shit that gets you yeah that huge kind of also man of steel wasn't terrible Yes, it was the first one. Yes. It was no. I don't think every single DC. My name was bad I didn't say it was good. It's just not terrible army the dead on Netflix awful Did you once you know as a creator once you get to Netflix unless you're a stand-up comic? It's guaranteed your shit's gonna be terrible
Starting point is 00:06:25 Yeah, there's something about Netflix movies that they're almost because they don't care Yeah, I don't think there's a movie or series movies There's no quality control when it comes to movies. They're like just make it for us, please I'm like, okay, so I'll do whatever. I think the last good movie I saw that was a Netflix movie was Red notice. Yeah Have you seen hitman yet? As an original Netflix movie, I thought it was great. That's okay It's Glenn Powell
Starting point is 00:07:00 It's Richard link later and It's for Netflix original movies and and I thought it was great. I really enjoy has 95% of rotten tomatoes Which I know is like whatever but I really enjoyed it. I thought it was entertaining Yeah, I mean I like the premise of it, but I'm thinking yeah amazing. I'm not super sold on him Glenn Powell Yeah, I just see oversaturation. No, it's just like he's okay I think we're just great. They were just desperate for like a good-looking who's Glenn White guy the guy from twisters, dude I have a main dude in twisters. He's in uh, he's also in maverick. Yeah. He's okay. He's like the new Iceman Okay, yeah, I got you. Yeah, and then he's in like now everything. Yeah now he's like he's in hitman He's in the dark knight rises. Who was he in the dog? I think he was he was he was no
Starting point is 00:07:39 He was just sitting in he was a part of the bank. I think that so he's a bane was yeah He was nobody nobody time which is crazy there's a lot of huge movies it's cool to see people that you look back at a movie you're like yo this guy was in it but you suck nothing you saw lemming have you seen the cast of black hawk down have you ever looked at oh yeah what else black hawk down like yeah okay yes sorry that's different so just reading off the very first slide on Google, 2001, Josh Hartnick, Eric Bana, Ewan McGregor, Tom Hardy, Tom Sizemore, Orlando Bloom, William Fickner, who is the guy in the dark night at the bank who gets the character actor has

Starting point is 00:10:31 I want to say some of these for sinophobes. Okay, but I'll give you I'll give you one more This is can I give the plot really quick to jiu-jitsu? Yes, please do So every six years an ancient order of expert jiu-jitsu fighters faces a vicious race of alien invaders in a battle for earth For thousands of years invaders have lost to Earth's defenders up until now Earth's future is in jeopardy So I guess the expert jujitsu fighters are now no more and now we have to make sure that we find them Yeah, and Nick Cage has a sword which last time I checked I don't remember There's the very little actual jujitsu in the movie jiu-jitsu. What? That's the thing to remember Wait, so the aliens come and they've lost To the planet. Yeah to earth. So earth has won a lot. No the alien comes every six years whoops everybody's ass and goes home
Starting point is 00:11:18 Okay, so that the humans have not won in a long time. No, we haven't won. This is also Mortal Kombat This is Wikipedia, but it's Wikipedia though. But it's pretty accurate. But the other thing about it is in the movie, they try to assert that the aliens are the ones that taught us Jiu-Jitsu. Ah, alien technology. It was the Brazilians, of course. The pyramids. And also, the alien, I can't figure out whether it's the same guy. I gotta sound for this. Is it the race of aliens? Thank thank you or is it like this one alien who's like you know what I like just keeps coming every six years I like to take a little break it's like the Olympics for him it's like I got him like going to work every day coming on he's got a tie he's got a short sleeve
Starting point is 00:11:57 shirt comes home his boss yells at him his wife is nagging the kids are crying is like I need a break he looks at his calendar the annual trip to Earth's coming really big his wife says alright, so we're having dinner the on Blurbs day like no, you know, it's my going to earth. I play big shrimp. I gotta go whoop this human's ass Yeah, then he goes and it's like, ah Finally some peace and quiet Billy thoughts No, that's true. Did you guys know
Starting point is 00:12:27 I saw this online the other day that Jeff Goldblum is white Orlando Jones? Yes, I saw the side by side. Have you seen this before? It's like Troy Ickman being white Jay-Z. Yes, it's the same genre. I never considered it. Future and close. Also like Orlando Jones, what happened to him? Oh, that's a good question. He had like a moment and he wasn't bad. I think seven up went out of business and that was like, no, I seven up still in business. Yeah. But they're not like big, like before. That was his big, like mentors. You like seven up or something? No, no. Whenever he was at seven,
Starting point is 00:13:02 make seven, make seven of yours. Yeah. That was his I think he was in like evolution. Yeah, that was it Qualified for Cinephore for like a month and then it got bumped up and it got bumped up It is like a like a borderline good movie. I liked it What happens if like you've done a movie that then gets bumped out of it? Do you remove it from your archives have to delete it? Yeah, not only that we have one of those men in black Neuralizer and we forget we ever did it. There it is. Yeah, like when does just saw it? It's it's it's the glasses mostly. I think the glass is doing a lot of work. No, they have the same smile. It's like that Toothy smile Orlando Jones. He used very long teeth. Yeah long like and a lot of teeth showing
Starting point is 00:13:39 Yeah, I mean there's really only a certain number of combinations of ways, you know human facial structures can be made Right was the black version of you. I don't know Wow. I don't know. Mr. Kate listeners It's time to find out submit your best black version of Billy Gill You should attack Mike Fuentes and all of those but we had we had a buddy that I went to high school with his name was Mark and then a lot of the guys that I went to high school with his name was Mark. And then a lot of the guys that I went to high school with ended up playing sports at UM, baseball. And there was a guy that looked just like Mark, but black. So we called him Black Mark. Nice.
Starting point is 00:14:13 But it was like, it was like, it was like, they were brothers separated at birth. What did the baseball players at UM have to do with that story? Because they're the ones that introduced me to Black Mark. That's how I have the connection to regular Mark, mark and black mark, you know, it's funny Tony I've never ever ever in my life had a friend who was black black Fill in the blank right now. I've had a lot of white white mics. I wonder why
Starting point is 00:14:39 Because you know what I call my black friends named Mike Mike Mike Because you know what I call my black friends in Mike Mike Mike So would I be white Mike no now there's a couple like you even Mike you've been Mike Oh, but there's a couple Cuban mics to although there was there was this kid that I used to work with who was half a Korean half white and we still called him white Mike and he clearly wasn't white He could have called them. No, I Korean Mike. Yeah Are you doing yeah Jeff Goldblum what a life Jewish I can do did you ever see his show on Disney Jeff Goldblum I think it's like Jeff Goldblum explains. Oh, no It looked like it was a cool like like I felt like I wanted to support because he seems like a cool guy Yeah, yeah, that's what it was like. It could have been anything. It's also the kind of show that I want to do
Starting point is 00:15:30 Yeah, can I can I just see don't support it cuz you want to do I'm glad you mentioned that I'm secretly hating I have a I have a gripe with celebrity travel shows Like that leave the travel shows to the commoners. Okay, like I don't need to see a celebrity Traveling around the world to do things. Let Let someone else that's not famous get that job. Who are you thinking of right now that like celebrity is traveling? Conan O'Brien does a travel show. It's good, but you know, but he has all the money in the world. You know, you know, uh, who is it? It's the one I was thinking honestly, I think, I think I was, and he tours Italy, it's a banger. It's not hating.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Shay Mitchell does a show where she travels around just trying drinks. It's like, we can have someone else do that. Yeah, that's what I wanna do. We can have a midnight house. You've had your fame, you've had your success, could someone else get a shot here? But isn't that just like TikTokers and YouTubers that travel?
Starting point is 00:16:20 Isn't that just the normal people? Yeah, those are boring to be honest. No, I want, yeah. They're shot beautifully, but they're used to be like people that you knew. This is like the travel person like Samantha Brown or whatever is like, wow, like that's the travel person that travels around and shows me all these places. Yeah, David Tello was very good at that. Since we work in that industry, right? Whenever I see these like really elaborate YouTube videos, right?
Starting point is 00:16:43 And then like my mom does this all the time Hey, you work in TV. Why don't you do something like the YouTube? It's a good point and I say mom Do you know what a pain in the ass this is? for me to do it all day at work and then have to go home and Plan like all these elaborate shoots and then it's a lot when you're like producer, editor, planner, booker, all the things in one. Yeah. So for me to do it for myself, while a great idea is a lot of work. That's why people are like, oh, you know,
Starting point is 00:17:12 they just talking to the camera on YouTube. You have no idea how much work that is. That is so much work. So on an upcoming episode of Tony tonight, I talked to my buddy George, Mr. Eats305, and we kind of have an in-depth conversation about what the life of an influencer really is. Because you're on all the time.
Starting point is 00:17:27 Dude, not only are you on all the time, not only are you producing, editing, talent, booking, like all that stuff, it's your entire life. That's how you make money. If you stop, the money stops. It's a topic I want to do on main show at some point. I call it the hellscape of the content creator, right? Because you think everything about your life has to be content. Everything. Our brains have changed. You don't get the chill.
Starting point is 00:17:56 Like, there's nothing that they do or enjoy genuinely just for the sake of doing it, right? Went to SeaWorld had fun The got splashed by the orcas that a cool rollercoaster. No, it's got to be like hey guys. I'm a SeaWorld Let's see if I'm gonna get like everything has to be like that You know, you know who's like that for real that I think about a lot like I feel bad for this dude Lethal shooter you guys know who lethal shooter. Yes lethal shooters turned into a walking. Oh, that's the guy he's in the park, right? He's like playing basketball He's everything. Yeah, but like he's shooting he's shooting a writ like a rim that of made of nails. Yeah. Oh, yeah Yeah, perfect. So doesn't hit the yeah
Starting point is 00:18:32 Gotta stay locked and but I'm like yo this dude really his whole life is like What do I what I have to shoot on today? I gotta do the next thing I gotta figure out the next thing he's out until what if I'm on jet jet ski? Yeah, and then I shoot it over a fountain and then I make it and it's like yeah cool sick do it I did it like chainsaws. Yeah Juggling chainsaws and I'm shooting in the middle. Yeah, I'm just like when does it end because it ends at some point Yeah, he can't do it forever. You can't do it forever. And lately what he's been doing now It's like mixing in these skits and the skits are
Starting point is 00:19:14 Not great forever and lately what he's been doing now it's like mixing in these skits and the skits are not great ass on it's clearly he wrote it too and so it's like it makes no sense yeah I like Eugene Levy and I know that Jeremy's gonna kind of fight me on this do I need to see him travel around the world the Levy's go away like you don't need to take him travel around the world the levees go away? You don't need to take me on your vacation pay for your own vacations and just enjoy it do it without a camera Yeah, we're hosting the Emmys actually and all of them. No just Dan and the entire army of letters enough Not with your eyebrows and they'll put those right about the glasses Oh, I gotta wear the same kind of glasses my dad wears like wasn't that yeah he I feel like he's trying to redo look at the guy I was talking about yeah why does
Starting point is 00:19:50 he have the glasses brand cuz who Dan yeah of course because my you cause nepotism yeah you know obviously because I'm a good actor he made a great actor yeah Chris Cody gets killed for nepotism guess what is he a writer does he write for a newspaper no carved his Carved his own path. Exactly right, and he works hard. As hell. Wait, I think you guys are arguing different things. That's one way to look at it.
Starting point is 00:20:11 I'm arguing that nepotism is not good. You're saying nepotism is leading directly to the exact same job. Dan Levy is basically redoing his dad's career. Is he? It's only a matter of time before he- They're both actors, buddy. They're gonna redo Splash.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Guess who's gonna be like the weird scientist. He's gonna be dad in American Pie or whatever. He's gonna be dad in American Pie. That would be fun. I mean, but like Schitt's Creek was like his thing. He wrote it. Yeah, like his thing. He, like you could say nepotism if it's like-
Starting point is 00:20:40 And his dad signed on, which is how he was able to help get it with the network. Yeah, but it sure succeeded because- The success was because it was good. Well, but it's, and his dad made the which is how he was able to help. Yeah, but it shows succeeded because the success was because it was good and his dad made the phone call to get mom in because they knew each other from all of a sudden. Yeah, so that actually so hey, hey network. I have a great idea for a show. Okay, kid, call me later.
Starting point is 00:20:55 What if I told you my dad's attached? You didn't love the end. The mom didn't get my name from home. So it's a bad show. It only exists. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, only exists no no no dude I mean it probably did only exists but ended up being good I mean any good shows are out there that never get the light of day because they have nobody attached to them that matter I used to have this argument with Pablo Torre all the time because Pablo's friends with child or all child is Gambino oh right so Atlanta, I said Atlanta's a good show,
Starting point is 00:21:25 but it's nothing that blows me away. I'm talking about, this is like season one, season two of Atlanta, I'm like, this is a good show, but it's like, I could have made this show. And everyone's like, oh me, no, no, no, no, no. Listen to what I'm saying, I'm not saying like, hey, I could have had it on air. I'm saying like, the ideas that they're having in here,
Starting point is 00:21:42 like these are ideas that I've heard a million times over from my friends And and stuff like that what Donald Glover did was he had the pull To get it made which is no small feat no small feat at all The difference is when it comes to Dan Levy he had the pool because daddy Daddy's gonna help me get it done. Not like a hater. I'm just gonna cut right come right Oh, you're like the person like it every like my family Yeah, I should have a reality show. I was a gambler. We're so crazy
Starting point is 00:22:10 Yeah, if I was no you shouldn't I was a not chain sin if I was a gambling man I would say it had more to do with it than it didn't have to do of course Absolutely. So you're saying that you Amin al-hassan could have made a two-time Emmy award-winning show Atlanta Just and the only reason you don't have any friends You talk about it concept is a regular concept the concept right, but that's what makes it So easy rate is you take a regular concept and then you make incredible television around it Jeremy The problem is this I'm trying to turn it in an angle where I can see you sorry I can hear let me move Over here because this is pretty much impossible
Starting point is 00:22:42 Hey the problem over here. Sorry camera team the much impossible. Hey, I'm over here. Sorry, camera team. The problem, what I'm saying isn't like, hey, I could have won two Emmys. Because again, we know how awards are won. Awards are won with a lot of campaigning. Awards are won with a lot of politics. Politics. And awards are won because a lot of times the voters
Starting point is 00:23:00 like who they like. And Donald Glover was a known commodity. This wasn't- But people liked this show. Like people- I'm not saying it's not a good show. I'm saying- That somebody else could have made it. Like you wanna blow, I'll give you a great example.
Starting point is 00:23:12 Inception, I walked out of that movie, I was like in a million years, I couldn't have thought of this shit. In a million years, this dude did something I could have never came up with. Game of Thrones, in a million years, I could not come with the level of detail that a show like that comes up with. Atlanta, I'm like, dude, it's a million years. I could not come with the level of detail that a show like that comes up with
Starting point is 00:23:26 Atlanta I'm like dude. It's a good show. I ended. I loved it. I watched it the whole way through I was entertained by I laughed I cried all that shit, but it's like dude me and my friends could come up with Atlanta So yeah, so like that's what Schitt's Creek is a perfect example where Schitt's Creek is Hey, the the rich family loses everything and then you figure it out. But like, there's a whole bunch of those shows and most of them don't hit the way that Schitt's Creek did because they wrote it to create these really specific nuanced characters that then were able to kind of like go to another level. And sure, the only reason it gets green lit to begin with is because Eugene Levy
Starting point is 00:24:03 exists. That's the only point he's making from the job That's the only thing number one is it doesn't take away how like talented or it's like child mortality, right? Like it's like oh Like this family had all these babies that went up and grew up and went to college and became doctors and lawyers like yeah This family had babies that were that died, right? Like there's nothing to say that these babies couldn't have grown up to do all those things. And with that note, this baby's gotta go. Okay.
Starting point is 00:24:29 He's right about that. I can't even count her. He's running to Genesis because he does not want somebody to skip him. Yeah. How are you feeling, Jess? Jess, a new woman. I'm sorry, I have no idea what you guys were talking about,
Starting point is 00:24:44 but I just got mad. Chips Creek only exists because Dan Levy's son. Yeah, that was basically the argument. The point was it got greenlit. It's about nepotism. It got greenlit because of the family name. And enough of the Levy's. That never happens in Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:24:56 And Amin and his friends could have created Atlanta. Yeah, that's true also. I'm going to take a pause here real quick. If you guys are watching on YouTube or the DraftKings network, right now you're going to see a package that was made with Jess. Glad you walked in right now, and Roy and Key West winning their barbecue championship. Wow, let's go. Oh wow. Wait, I want to see that. Yeah, well you're not gonna see it right now. Look up, watch. No, we're not gonna play it.
Starting point is 00:25:12 Oh, you just said right now. No, we're gonna play it. We're playing it. No, we're playing it. She's gonna be watching it later on YouTube. So if you want to go see that, travel over to the YouTube channel or DK network. Yeah, you're there. You're watching right now, just stay here. Or if you're on the pod, you will get now five minutes to cover that so that way we don't have this like thing like, hey, look at this fish. And you can not see the fish.
Starting point is 00:25:35 What fish was it? Why do we do this in the middle of a sunbed? Permit, tarpon. Ooh, we got a tarpon. So this is bonus audio content that the video team's not getting. Correct. Like if you're watching on video, you don't get us. You're not watching. So if you're watching on video, or you don't get us, you're not watching.
Starting point is 00:25:45 So if you're listening on audio, you're only hearing this. Feel free to travel over to the podcast and give that a download and help our numbers. Try to feed the tarpon or not? I actually didn't go fishing. So. So what did you do? So what did you do? I did nothing. I ate ribs. It was awesome. A plus tweet by the way. Okay. So a bunch of people replied to my, so I tweeted over Roy, like I quote tweeted Roy's
Starting point is 00:26:07 tweet about winning the barbecue contest, the Tyrese Halberton being like, when you are in the group project, you don't do anything. And a couple people were like, damn, like that Roy, like that's so mean to Roy. And I'm like, no, this was, this was about me. Tyrese Halberton tweeted that about himself. And now I'm tweeting it about myself because I did nothing except eat ribs. And I like did a couple like helpful things
Starting point is 00:26:30 for the pit masters. Roy was such a sweetheart though. He was like, Jessica did exactly what we asked of her. And he's right. That is true. Which was nothing. Which was not a lie. But it was asked.
Starting point is 00:26:40 But I got a trophy and it was done. And I ate ribs and they were fire. Behind every successful team is a support staff Just you were the support staff. Thank you Yeah, you take the time to you because you know what? You're the support stuff here for mystery create and you make a lot of things happen I think most of them is just annoying you guys enough to come in here and talk. Oh my Really is like 99% of his job. Hey, I need you to be here my son Your sound effects are no do you want to one? Yeah, I wanted them on so I could give you
Starting point is 00:27:06 a little something something. There you go, Mike. Thank you, Tony. But it was fun. The barbecue ribs that they made on the last day, they were peanut butter jelly flavored ribs. Really? Wow. So good.
Starting point is 00:27:19 Is this like a sweet and sour type deal going on? It was mostly just sweet, but a little smoky, a little peppery. Like it was a, it was a very good battle. I think that, I think the ribs are what won the event. So it was a barbecue. It was a barbecue. Fishing, lobstering and barbecue.
Starting point is 00:27:36 And you get sort of, I don't understand exactly how they weight the different events. How do they all go together? Yeah. But like the fishing counts for a certain amount of points. The lobster, there's a certain limit of like as many lobsters as you can get to get the full points for the lobstering. And then the barbecue on the last day.
Starting point is 00:27:53 So who went down and tickled the lobster out of the hole and got it? Was it Roy? I think Roy did. I mean, we'll find out in the video. But you, but you. Well, no, remember we're not watching the video. The audio.
Starting point is 00:28:00 But you will have seen this, seen it before it releases. But yeah, I couldn't, I couldn't go fishing or lobstering because they both, both events were on, like there was a captain and he had a boat and the boat fit like five people and I didn't want to take someone's spot. Yeah, like a quick limit. You weren't gonna do anything? Well, no, well, yeah, obviously.
Starting point is 00:28:19 I'm not a fish master. But no, there were two social media people on the boat doing all the video stuff, and I didn't want to take one of their spots, obviously. Just let them do their job. So you just were at the pool hanging out? Yeah, I read Dune. I'm not finished with it though, but I like it so far.
Starting point is 00:28:36 I heard it's, I know Star Wars took inspiration from Dune. Yeah. But I don't, that's all I know about Dune, like the old book really. Did you see the movie? Yeah, I know the movie. Tanty Shalime? That's for other people. I wore a shirt the other day that had Suri on it and you were like, I didn't see it. So I don't know. No, I didn't. And I still have it. But I am reading the book. I'm almost finished with it. I
Starting point is 00:28:56 like that there's like a bunch of like sort of science fiction kind of created words. And then like the main character's name is just Paul and his mom's name is Jessica. That made me laugh. Like so in the movie, Paul Atreides, right? Or that's his name, Paul. And then I'm always like, we're out here in the middle space with all these like weird names for sand worms and then his name is Paul. Yeah, I haven't met too many worms yet.
Starting point is 00:29:17 I'm starting to get into the worms now. Yeah, but anyways, the event was great. Key West, I have to say, I've been there like three times now since I moved to Miami. This is, this sounds obvious, but the chickens are multiplying. And however many chickens, well, all kinds of chickens, however many chickens you think there are in Key West,
Starting point is 00:29:37 there's a thousand times that many now. Like even since the last time I stayed at this very hotel, there are so many more chickens. There were chicks, there were hens, there were roosters. I woke up to the sound of a cockle doodle doo. Yeah, you hear the roosters. That's why I said roosters is you just hear them everywhere.
Starting point is 00:29:53 Hens you don't really hear, but like. But they're there too, because they're there with the little chicks and they're everywhere. Oh my God. And Willow was like, what the fuck are these? Every time she sees a chicken, it's like the Simone Biles meme at the Olympics
Starting point is 00:30:05 where she like turns her head really fast. Every time she would see like a chicken run by in front of her, she'd be like, what is that? She knows it's a bird and she knows that it's like another animal, but I don't think she knows that that is the same thing that she eats. How do you know that she knows that? Well, I can tell.
Starting point is 00:30:22 She acknowledges that like that's an animal. Like she had, she acknowledges all animals to different different varying degrees So like a favorite animal catch will like shit her pants. She fucking freaks out when she sees cats She doesn't like she doesn't hate them. She's I think she's afraid of them. Really? Yeah, does she know how big she is? I think that may be part of it I think a lot of dogs don't realize how big they are because then they wouldn't throw themselves into you because then there's some dogs That don't realize how big they are because then they wouldn't throw themselves into you. Because then there's some dogs that don't realize how small they are. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Because there's some, if you have a little dog that's- Cats have no idea how small they are. Right. If you have a little dog that lives with a big dog, it's like, I'm that size. The little dog runs the show. Yeah, the little dog's like, I'm that size. It's like, what's up? In the NFL, there is no margin for error.

Messy's not, but we are.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Inter Miami Moneyline, both teams to score, plus 225. FC Cincinnati did not score on them last time, but I don't think they keep it up. So that's your bet. Inter Miami Moneyline and both teams to score, and that was... You betcha! So she freaks out when she sees cats, because I think she's afraid of them. Moneyline and both teams score and that was you. So she freaks out when she sees cats because she's I think she's afraid of them. She doesn't really understand them, which posits a problem because one day if I visit my sister and my brother-in-law, they have several cats and I don't know how she's going to react and we may not be able to bring her along
Starting point is 00:33:59 for the ride. But birds, she kind of ignores except chickens, chickens she does sort of think are strange. They're not flying. They're making strange noises. A lot of times they're clucking. They walk a sort of weird way on their two little talon paw claw thingies, their little chicken feet.
Starting point is 00:34:17 Well, they're probably also the tallest thing that approaches her that's not a dog. Because like a rooster has stance, right? So like there's mom's size, which is really big human size. Then there's like lizards and then there's- Well, I think she thinks that I'm also a dog. So I think in the hierarchy- So how does she know if other things are other animals
Starting point is 00:34:36 and how does she think you're a dog? I think she thinks that I'm like, I'm- Like an upright dog? I'm a person dog. Chicken is two-footed dog Cat is scary mean dogs. Yeah, they're everything's a dog. Everything is a dog But they're like different kinds of dogs. She's like mom dog doesn't shit on the floor like me true Mom never shit. Well, I don't know you get into but mom never shits on the floor. Why? Yeah, so she thinks, I want to hump her. That's what I think. That's this is where it all
Starting point is 00:35:07 comes back to because Willow treats me like I am a sex toy. And I have had to were you not here when we talked to Ron McGill last week? Yeah. So I always like a pleasure. I always thought that dogs that hump people, especially female dogs were doing it as a gay, I wanna play with you and I'm trying to get your attention. That's what everyone's always told me. I always thought it was a domination thing.
Starting point is 00:35:30 Or that, or like, I'm trying to show you who's boss. But Ron was like, no, she's actually like, this is a sex thing. And that has really fucked me up four days. So you would let her just hump you? No, I would be like, please get off me. But she had- The gentle forearm, come on. The gentle I would be like, please get off me. But she has the gentle forearm. Come on.
Starting point is 00:35:47 The gentle forearm and be like, ha, that's funny. But get off, like that sort of thing. And then he gets super embarrassed. She's trying to get off. Not like that. What? She's trying to get off. Not get off.
Starting point is 00:35:57 Oh, god. Knock it off. But Willow does have really sharp claws. I give her mani-pedis all the time. Really? Yes. Does she fight you? I'm in charge of, no, she's so good. Are her mani-pedis all the time. Yes, I'm in charge of, I'm in charge, no, she's so good. Yes, I was actually gonna say, is it a pedi-pedi or a mani-mani or is it a mani-pedi? Are they arms and legs?
Starting point is 00:36:15 Are they just legs? They're all legs. This goes back to how does a dog wear pants? Exactly. Back two or four up to front but short. Back two. Anyways, as I was saying Genesis She just changed my life. How was it? I think I mean it was unbelievable. We can actually go to a mean right now
Starting point is 00:36:32 Were you guys watching me because I literally had my shirt off We're talking about John Claude Van Damme and how he was supposed to play the Predator, which makes no sense because he's 5'6". And then we talked about nepotism. And then we talked about nepotism and then it was probably gonna turn into- Care Bear, I like your shirt. Thank you very much. Shout out to Home Field.
Starting point is 00:36:53 I do like the Citronauts branding for- I've been trying- It's so cute. I love the cute little orange. He's got like a cute little helmet on. He's adorable. Is it a helmet? Yeah, it is a helmet.
Starting point is 00:37:02 So he's a citrus astronaut. Because UCF was started as a space school. Right. And then it went from there. I've been really pushing for UCF to rebrand back to the Citronauts. But then do you have to rebrand back to the University of Central Florida instead of UCF?
Starting point is 00:37:19 No, absolutely not. Didn't they change their name at one point? What do you mean? I don't know. Oh yeah, they were like, they were something else in Orlando before becoming UCF. Well, UCF in 1963 actually officially became, I believe the University of Central Florida.
Starting point is 00:37:32 And that's all I've really cared about. I have questions about his helmet though. About the helmet? Cause it doesn't really go around his head. So. It's not safe. Yeah. And then when he puts his visor down, it doesn't really. His mouth is still. Yeah, it's exposed.
Starting point is 00:37:44 It looks like a Marvin the Martian ripoff, if I'm gonna be honest. Yeah, it does. I mean his visor down, it doesn't really. His mouth is still a gate. Yeah, it's exposed. It looks like a Marvin the Martian ripoff, if I'm gonna be honest with you. Yeah, it does. I mean, yeah, this was designed, I think in the late 60s, early 70s. Can you put on the space helmet? Yeah, put on the space helmet
Starting point is 00:37:53 so we can see how our proper helmet's put on. It's also kind of like a playoff obi, the orange from the orange bowl. Florida Technical University, F-T-U. See, this is a proper helmet. But you can tell by the helmet that is on the shirt that for the audio audience, he's wearing a proper helmet. It you could tell by the helmet that is on the shirt that for the audio audience He's wearing a proper sky and Dale Earnhardt was wearing when he died unfortunate, right? Yeah
Starting point is 00:38:11 Yeah, but um, and then You can see the helmet the difference in helmets are a citron on friend on Jeremy shirt. I don't think he survived space travel That's unfortunate. Yeah, that's unfortunate. It's supposed to be a school about this stuff. Yeah, I mean to me I think that unfortunate Chris Cody fucked me on that by the way did he did big time? He fucked me hard on that Not in a fun way. Yeah. Yeah. No, I Sent my impression of the DA from presumed innocent to Chris Cody and he didn't include it in the sues. That was Rob Huh? There was a lot of stuff that we forgot to put in the sues I hope it by this point the Ronnie Chang interview has been
Starting point is 00:38:46 has been added. That was such a great moment. Chris is like, and we're going to hear it now. What? I mean, it's really hard to keep track of sues, especially the revelations, because often like a revelation doesn't, it doesn't feel like a revelation. And they're different to everybody, right? Yeah. Some stuff you would have known already or not known. But the thing about Samson crying after he texted out to me. That was very funny. And then the apologizing. I'm not going to say I haven't before.
Starting point is 00:39:15 Wow. But it's just weird coming out of his mouth. You're a brave person for saying this on air. You know, I was a kid. I don't know. I was a kid. Very know. I was a kid. Very, very back in the past. It's a relatable. I think it's a
Starting point is 00:39:28 relatable thing for people to hear. Well, we just all had like, like, guys, let's face it, we've all had bad experiences, you know, but to admit, you got a bad at bat. I've got a bad at bat. But you know what? In the same game come to the plate again.
Starting point is 00:39:39 Take your hacks. Yeah, take your hacks. You never know. And just like baseball, we've normalized the at-bas just getting worse for some reason. It's true. Hey, you know what? All around. Like, it's just as you get know. And just like baseball, we've normalized the at-bass just getting worse for some reason. This is true. Hey, you know what? All around, like it's just-
Starting point is 00:39:47 As you get older, they- You accepted it. As you get older, they get worse, you know? And the hits come less and less before you know it, you're retired. Yeah, you're a home run hitter, trajectory ball kind of thing. You're happy to get a walk, to be honest.
Starting point is 00:39:57 Rare to get a homer. Oh, please. So we were talking, I think Amin was trying to get a Kodi a pass on his nepotism earlier. You missed that part, Jessica. He was trying to do that because what he was essentially saying is it's only nepotism if you end up with the exact same job as your parent or grandparent or whoever is helping you with the nepotism.
Starting point is 00:40:18 Right now Genesis's foot is inside Amin's collar bone. I'm sorry, shoulder blade. And that hurts so much. I wish I had a mic in there. I've never been matched and I'm kind of fearful of it, if I can be honest. Not of Genesis the person. No, you should be afraid. Of her? You should be afraid of how much it hurts. Like it hurts. So I will have bruises on my back tomorrow. She's powerful. I feel so strong. I feel like the next few days. So this is a good thing. Dude, she knows like she knows when something's going on in my life
Starting point is 00:40:50 based off of like my neck. Like she'll be like, you have this going on, right? And I'm like, dude, how did you know that? She knows like she's like a fortune teller, like a palm reader. But it's like she's reading all the muscles in my back and my neck. And she's telling me exactly what's going on. She had a classic line to me. She's like, oh, tents in here, huh?
Starting point is 00:41:07 Problem with the Mrs. Flacari. She's like, you moved recently, didn't you? And I was like, what the f- She hit me with, did your grandparents have a hard time? And I was like, what? Yeah, they came from Cuba, didn't know the language. Of course they had a hard time. I feel that.
Starting point is 00:41:23 Yeah, she was like, I feel that in your hip. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, because your Of course I had a hard time. I feel that. Yeah, she's like generational trauma. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, because your hip flexor was a little tight. I don't know if this is true, but people always say women carry stress in their hips. And if it's not true, it just, it seems like it is true because it feels very true for me. Interesting. My hips are effed. It's where all my stress is.
Starting point is 00:41:41 I think it's a lot of sitting down. Sitting down kills our hips because like we're in this hinge position. I think you're meant to be straight, like standing straight up all the time. Yeah, but I have terrible posture. Dude, I'm in Pilates right now, and for hours after Pilates, I'm so, my posture is so good.
Starting point is 00:41:58 I'm so tall. I grow like three inches after Pilates class. And you become conscious of it, right? Yes, and then I spend like four hours sitting at my table working, and by the end of the day, I'm a curve again after Pilates class. And you become like conscious of it, right? Yes, and then I spend like four hours sitting at my table working. And by the end of the day, I'm a curve again. And Lee will always be like, your neck looks like a question mark.
Starting point is 00:42:12 And I'm like, stop saying that. But he's just like, he's like, your neck's a question mark again. And I'm like, huh. No, I'll be aware of it for like five minutes. And then when I'm working, I'll notice like I'm rounding my shoulders. Oh, my shoulders.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Yeah, and then I'll, that's why I stand realistically. That's why I stand back there smart Yeah, I like standing to the more I sit. I'm just like dude. I like yeah, but like we are Also, I get to a point where I'm so tired of standing that I start shifting my weight from side to side Which isn't good. What I try to do is just tighten my abs really hard and I just hold it You just stand there and flex. Literally, that's what I do half the time. I don't like sitting on bar stools. I hate bar stools.
Starting point is 00:42:50 Yeah, so like we were at a short time, like if you're going to like Flannys and they only have the tabletops. Yeah, but I'm waiting for that. But even then, it's 35, 40 minutes. I'll sit down and I'll do it. But then I have to stand. Everybody's telling me, oh, why are you standing? I'm like, I'm sitting down all day, dude.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Yeah, I don't want to. I'm tired of being sitting down. Tony, you're going on vacay this weekend, aren't you? I am. Baby moon this weekend. Baby moon. I'm probably, I'm sitting down all day, dude. I'm tired of being sitting down. Tony, you're going on vacay this weekend. I am baby moon this weekend. Baby moon. I'm probably there right now. Oh my God. Wow. Mentally, I was there. Are you flying the sea plane there? No sea plane. We're going to Nassau. So if we were doing Bimini, we'd do the sea plane, but we're doing regular plane. Yeah. Okay. It's an hour quick trip. I saw people on TikTok that took their boat from Fort Lauderdale across to Bimini. Yeah, it looked amazing.
Starting point is 00:43:28 It takes about four hours. Beautiful. They brought their dog and we're just like cruising. It's put it this way. If you don't know what you're doing, it's incredibly dangerous. Yeah. The weather can be crazy. Can switch in a matter of 20 seconds.
Starting point is 00:43:40 My brother-in-law who is very experienced boating, his uncle Is a very experienced captain. He's got like a 50 foot Viking yacht so he's an experienced boater and they went over one time for like a Labor Day weekend or something a long weekend over to Bimini because they would go all the time and they were trying to It was Monday afternoon or whatever and they were trying to get back because everybody had worked the next day or whatever and they're like, we're going to try to beat the storm. There's a storm coming. We're going to try to get out
Starting point is 00:44:10 ahead of it. Apparently the storm fast forwarded and caught them in the middle and so it's a it's a it's a yacht that has like an inside cabin and a couple rooms wherever it's like a big big boat, right? All of a sudden, they start feeling like on a rollercoaster because the waves are starting to get like 10 to 15. Horrifying. So what they would have to do is gun the engines. They have like one of those fishing towers.
Starting point is 00:44:34 So they're at the top of the tower driving the boat and it's pitch black because there's no, like it's already like six or seven o'clock at night. It's dark. And now there's a storm. And now there's a storm and it's pissing rain on everybody. So what they had to do is they'd have to hit the throttle to go up the wave, climb the wave.
Starting point is 00:44:49 And then when they, on the crest of the wave going down, they'd have to kill the engine and then ride the wave all the way down and then kick it back up. Dude. And then, dude, he told me he's like. The ocean is so scary, bro. He told me he's like.
Starting point is 00:45:00 The ocean's scary. It's so shit out of me. I thought we were gonna die. Dude, every time I see people like. Four hours like that. Yeah, they're out in the bay and like you see these big storms coming, dude. I like would get gonna die dude. I every time I see four hours like that Yeah, they're out in the bay and like you see these big storms coming dude. I like would get anxiety so fast I'm a big Doppler radar girly I'm constantly looking at the radar especially Miami cuz the weather changes here so fast and while we're in Key West like I'm telling
Starting point is 00:45:18 You I also do you guys ever look at like the lightning strike maps? No, I think I've talked about this on the show I never look at I remember you talking about radar. I don't, I love maps. I'm out on topography. There's this like real time lightning map where after a lightning strike, it will show you where the lightning strike was within like a, you know, few feet of a radius. And then you based on like the color, you can see how recent it was. How do you think they get that info? Radar like they just, they just, it's probably like a heat map thing, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:48 Because obviously it's hot as shit wherever the lightning hits. Yeah, probably. I don't know. I'll look into the technology. How do you even? I mean, I don't, there's a lot of things going on. I don't know, can't explain.
Starting point is 00:45:54 It takes a few seconds. It's not like instantaneous. Okay. But so like when we were in Key West this weekend, I'm watching the storm come in while I know Roy is like out on this boat. And I'm like, dude, this storm's like right over where they're supposed to be in this boat. And I like watching this lightning strike happens like right next to where
Starting point is 00:46:11 they're having this like party out on this boat. And I'm texting Roy and I'm like, you guys good. And he's like responding. He's like, yeah, everything's fine. I'm like, it probably was like shitting rain, like 10 feet away from them, but was just like perfectly sunny. Yeah. It's crazy. That's always like one of the craziest phenomenons when I'm here and I'm just driving in traffic and the sun is baking my car and pouring rain. That was this morning. Yeah. Did you guys experience that this morning or were you already here? I saw a girl's story that had sunshine, bright sunshine, pouring rain and I'm like that's I've only seen that here. As soon as I got to the garage,
Starting point is 00:46:46 as I was pulling into like scan my card, it just started pouring. And I was like, I'm not walking through that. And then I started looking at like the radar and I was like, there's no cloud in the sky. It says it's not supposed to rain for the next 60 minutes. There's none of those little clouds. And then you scan through like an hour
Starting point is 00:47:03 and it's like, there's nothing anywhere. It was so bizarre. And then like 10 minutes later it was just like sprinkling. As I was driving in, I was coming in on what is it 395 and I was turning there and I'm looking at downtown Miami and downtown Miami itself, it's pouring. You can see it but looking straight ahead, I had to have my sunglasses on because it was so sunny and everything else is blue. I thought at first, when I was looking at it from a distance, I thought that it was like fog or something because I was so, I was like, surely that can't be rain. There's no way that it's raining.
Starting point is 00:47:35 And you pulled, and I pulled in and all of a sudden it's like hailing on my car. I couldn't believe it. And then yeah, I had the same experience as Billy as I'm pulling into the garage. I'm like, man, this is terrible. I don't want to have to walk in the rain. I'm looking for an umbrella. Like, well, I guess I'm just gonna have to brace for the rain. I walk out of the garage. No more rain. The thing. Classic Miami in the
Starting point is 00:47:53 summer. The best. One of the worst things about and the worst Miami in the summer is that horrific downpour followed by the brightest sun you've ever seen. Yes. Because then your walk is literally a sauna. Like you just. Oh, it doesn't. And like the storms here don't cool down the air temperature at all. It just makes it more humid and shitty.
Starting point is 00:48:10 People always say like, oh man, I hate small talk. I hate talking about the weather. That's corny and lame. I fucking love talking about the weather. If you ever want to talk about the weather with me, text me, tweet at me, send me weather memes. How about this rain, huh. I love the weather. It terrifies me.
Starting point is 00:48:28 How about that rain, huh? How about that rain, huh? The rain terrifies you? Every, oh, no, like just the weather in general. It's very scary. Storms scare me. It's something dangerous that you have no control over, right, so it's something.
Starting point is 00:48:38 That too. I actually, there was a huge lightning storm the night that I saw you in the Grove. Oh yeah. There was a huge lightning storm while I was sitting at dinner with Lehman and his parents and the lightning storm the night that I saw you in the Grove. There was a huge lightning storm while I was sitting at dinner with Lehman and his parents and the lightning struck a transformer on the corner of the street and it exploded
Starting point is 00:48:51 and people started screaming. And we're just sitting there. Yes, we're sitting there at dinner. I watched sparks fly out of this thing and the lights on the entire block, all the restaurants, all the bars, everything, all the shops go out and people are screaming. And we're just sitting there. We're like, all the restaurants, all the bars, everything, all the shops go out, and people are screaming.
Starting point is 00:49:06 And we're just sitting there, we're like, what the fuck just happened? One of the most uncomfortable moments of my life that afternoon. Public screams are funny. Cause I- Oh, cause you ran into us at a restaurant? No, but it's not running into you guys.
Starting point is 00:49:17 So I walk out of Bodega Happy Hour. Were you hammered? Yeah, of course. Okay, cause you seemed like really happy. Well, yeah. That was the team like Mike. Yeah, of course. Okay, cause you seemed like really happy. Well, yeah. So does it seem like Mike? Yeah, dude, I was happy. I slammed like four $10 Palomas.
Starting point is 00:49:30 And then I- I love a Paloma. And then that was the night of Samorail. And it was Saturday, right? Yeah. Samorail, so I left. Yeah, you said you were going to a comedy show. Yeah, that was that one.
Starting point is 00:49:39 Okay. So I left and then as I'm walking, it's starting to rain and then I just look over and I just see this and it's just smiling rain and then I just look over and I just see this And it's just smiling at me. I'm like, oh shit So then I walk up and then I don't I don't have problem meeting people but it's Lee's there she's there and then Lee's parents are getting the whole like dissertation from the from the waiter about specials and all this stuff No, I did it
Starting point is 00:50:01 I didn't say hi to him because it was like I was trying It was about to start pouring. Because I think that transformer thing happened literally three minutes after I left. Yes, it did. I mean, it was like, yeah. So then I'm there and I'm like, probably small like tequila. I'm there saying hi to Lee. Lee's in this weird, I don't know if I should introduce him or he's leaving.
Starting point is 00:50:19 Oh, there's Jess's drunk coworker. You want to know what I said when you walked away? I was like, he's so Miami. Yeah. Mike walked away and I was like, he's drunk co-worker. You want to know what I said when you walked away? I was like he's so Miami My no you're wearing like some Miami ass outfit Kind of see it I think I was wearing like short dress I don't know. I was definitely comfortable in more ways than one. A trendy pair of shoes. Yeah, I think I had like trendy sneakers.
Starting point is 00:50:50 I think I had like a flat brim hat. The seven inch shorts on. Yeah, I had my hat on. White tee, I think. Seven inch. Come on, we'll take. We'll take for you. My legs aren't defined enough for five.
Starting point is 00:50:59 You guys ever think about how Dan just doesn't wear hats anymore? Yeah. Pretty amazing. That just happened one day. He quit on hats. It just happened and we never talked about it. I don't think I saw his hair until like 2022
Starting point is 00:51:09 and now I see it every day. Dude, Chris Cody zin-diz-assed so hard with the olive green. He didn't think it was something. All right, olive green. That was quality so funny. When did that happen? Oh, you weren't here?
Starting point is 00:51:21 It's there. If you wanna find it, you can find olive green. We'll have to find it. Cause you were talking about Chris during the tour interview, right? Wearing shorts, wearing a t-shirt or whatever. We weren't here. It's there. It's here to find the yeah Right wearing shorts or in a t-shirt here, it's great All right olive green Chris gets a jab in there. All right olive green. He's clearly like nervous to finish the set. Yeah, he was scared. Like he didn't listen to the green again.
Starting point is 00:51:49 Play the whole thing. All right. All of green. Oh yeah. He was scared. There's a waiver. His voice just kind of went very dangerous. It's green. It coincided with Dan getting the stylist. Yes.
Starting point is 00:52:02 Or at least listening to Valerie, listening to whoever was styling him where they're like, yo, hats are not it. Yeah. I mean, that's not a thing about hats. Don't wear them anymore. Is it sunny in the studio? No. Okay. Is there a skyro skyroo? It's like every day. I mean, it's just like a, I don't want to do my hair type deal. Like I don't want to do shit to it. That was my biggest issue.
Starting point is 00:52:26 Like with the long hair, dude, I had to wear a hat every day or else I had to comb it or else my hair was like. This is also my biggest issue and why I like dread getting up for work every morning. Cause if I don't shower and do my hair that morning, it looks like ass. And I could wear a hat.
Starting point is 00:52:40 I don't like, I don't love wearing baseball caps. I could wear one. But I feel like once I start, wow, just truly horrible hats. Yeah, maybe. Wow. Or like, or like, I make it a thing for you like a train conductor hat. Yeah. Ooh, a little cap. Yeah. Oh, little driver. Kangol hat. A little tingle. What do you do the visor? I look like a newsie. A visor. I so I wear visors when I run, when I play tennis or golf. What's it do with like straw visors?
Starting point is 00:53:10 Do you like those? I've seen there like all over the place. Visors are pretty in right now, I've noticed. But like the straw ones seem to be like a- Yeah, like the big ones. I think visors are better for people with long hair because you don't have to wear your hair down on your neck, which can get really hot. So now there's sun hats that have like a hole on the top.
Starting point is 00:53:28 They cover the top of your head. Does that hurt your head? Does it burn your head? Not having cover? Well it depends. If your hair is pulled back, then your hair is probably covering your part. But if your part is like open, you should put sunscreen on it because it can burn it. Mine has. I see Billy as like a straw, like the big straw hat. It's like an umbrella type thing. Like, and yet I just see him going to the beach. He has like, you know, a sorted chairs in one hand, wrangling a cooler in the other wrangling a kid with his feet.
Starting point is 00:53:53 His wife has the other kid, you know, and they're just like, those big hats are great. They are like, I used to be anti that now. I will say the best thing about this fish barbecue lobster event, I got so much free shit. I was, oh my God, I was so happy. I walked around this event, I got Lee a big fishing hat, I got a pair of gloves that are, they work up to a thousand degrees for grilling and like putting your oven, like oven mitts
Starting point is 00:54:17 basically on gloves. That's one of those things you just have to blindly trust. Yeah, right. I'm never gonna try it. I'm never gonna try it. I'm not, I'll take your word for this. What food am I putting at a thousand degrees? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:26 I got this great... Like a lava burger or something. It's a grill kilt. It's like a kilt skirt thing. Oh, yeah. They were all wearing it. With pockets. Did you get to keep that? Yes, I got to keep it. And I got this really pretty nice yeti.
Starting point is 00:54:39 It was amazing. So that was really the highlight of my trip. So Leemon and I, we got to go to Key West, which was amazing. So that was really the highlight of my trip. So like Lehman and I, we got to go to Key West, which was fun. We made our little way, drove down there, and we're like, this is fun. It's a long ashram. It actually wasn't bad.
Starting point is 00:54:53 The other thing I'll say about Key West, August, no cars on the road, no people at the hotel, no one in the pool, because it's a thousand degrees. Nobody wants to be out there. School just started. I don't want to be in the pool. School just started. No one's taking their kids on vacation.
Starting point is 00:55:04 It was bar empty. Saturday morning, bright sunny day. Man. Three hours there, three hours back. No, no. You just step out of your house and you're like, wow, it's really sunny. Looks like a good beach day. Guess I'm not going. Because it's so hot, dude. Well, that's the thing. It's also hot in Miami. And at least we were hot in Key West. I mean, I'm also not someone that's going to lay out in the peak afternoon sun. I just read my book inside for a couple hours.
