We didn't really punch each other in the face though, it was more like wrestling. But I remember telling Chris like, how much do I have to pay you to punch you as hard as I can in the face? And he thought about it and he was like, 10 bucks, right? How old were you guys? I was like 10. That's all the money in the world back then. Oh yeah, 10 bucks. That's $10 a box.

I was shocked though. Yeah, I was like, well, I don't have 10 bucks, but one of these days I'm gonna. So one day we're wrestling. Give me about four months. We're friends that laugh. We're friends that shout. Sometimes we don't know what we're talking about. But that won't stop us.

Nothing can stop us. Ooh, yeah. It's like a show you used to love, just rebranded enough. It's stronger, better, bigger power, cause it is the Golden Hour. It's the Golden Hour. Get the burger mat off. Old acquaintance we forgot. You ready, Nick?

Oh, we're... Oh, damn. Nick bringing the new year in with some props. Hell yeah, dude. We all got our pointy little... That's not the way to start the year off. PP hats on? When is the last time, like, New Year's...

Is New Year's a big holiday for you guys, first of all? Oh, dude. I sleep through it. I sleep through that. Like, birthdays for me is eh. But New Year's... But when it is... Like, when is the last time New Year's was like...

Really? We thought it was going to be like Armageddon. And we're supposed to crash. Yeah, yeah. I stayed up. I'm like, damn, if it is ending, I don't want to be sleeping through this. You know what? I was at a party for that, and I already don't drink.

Right. But after that party, seeing the aftermath of what was going on. You started drinking? No. It really solidified that I'm never going to drink. It was like my one friend is passed out in the bathtub, and I had to turn him so he didn't kill himself. That's not the way you want to start yeah yeah dude I had a baby yeah I had someone's baby oh wow the parents getting hammered yeah man I have

someone's baby there were people on the lawn and I just I have a vision of myself just looking around like yeah I made the right choice yeah no drinking for me it's a good way to it's good go to a few New Year's Eve parties yeah if you if you want reasons to not drink anymore and it could be you see a bunch of people acting a fool i mean that is when you see the people doing the dumbest i mean i guess if you had like a tough year and you're like man let's just end this with a banger you know i feel like you put one on go atomic on a very last year i feel like i'm i'm supposed to have a hat on top of my hat. Yeah, you got to get the under hat. I don't have an under hat.

I don't have an under hat, dude. He's going hat on hat. He's got commando over here. And we're crazy color coordinated today. We got it going on over here. With this hoodie, all thanks to him. What a way to bring in the new year. You want to bring in the new year with some award-winning Tiger thing.

There you go. Right on time. Yeah, but I don't remember the last like new years that i was like oh this is this was a great time you ever do uh i'm sure you have stand-up on new years oh yeah yeah that's the worst too that is the absolute worst last year i and i might just like hey what do you think about doing i forget what city it's for the money or something he's like philly for new years i'm like oh wow never again that sounds bad philly no one's there for the

show. They're literally counting down. Well, there's a moment in the show where you know that this ain't about the show anymore. So it's like 20 minutes till New Year's where you're like, why am I trying to tell jokes? Or then you just gotta be like, yeah, you come on up. People are on stage

and they're like, whatever. Then you just, it's all for this. Tag! Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's it. And then you're just like, where's my check? Is my check there? Yeah, yeah. I will never – I'll never do it again.

Chris has done it. I'm like, that sounds so not fun. Yeah. And by the way – And you know what? By the way, it's not fun for the people either. That doesn't seem like it. There's a moment where they realize, what are we doing here?

Yeah. Like it's one thing. Like I actually – You know what? I will say this. I did have one good New Year's time doing it when I did it at La Jolla. Oh, that'd be fun. The Comedy Store? The Comedy Store.

Because it immediately turned into a party. Everything in La Jolla, right after whatever it is, it immediately turns into a party. A white party. That room and that environment, it was like, oh, okay, I can see how this is now fun. But if you're, say, a huge comic and you're doing a theater. Right.

Let's say you're in the crowd. After you've counted down, now you're like, oh, shit, now we got to get to our car. We got to go home. And we have to go like, it's like, now it's going to be like 1245 a.m before we even get it's like a choice you go we shouldn't have done this now it's a lot the fun stand-up show to go to on new year's is say the eight o'clock show correct yes sure so you do like you oh we had a great time now we're headed to a new year's party you do just an eight o'clock show seven o'clock show, so then those people can plan the rest of their night.

But when you're on stage at midnight, and the show starts later, like 10.30, they're drinking before then. Everybody's wasted. Dude, I did two years ago, Palm Beach. I'm doing my best. I just see a dude, two girls, try kissing. Whoa, at the show?

In the middle of my eye. Oh, wow. I was like, God. God. Well, then that's when it just becomes like a rally. Nah. Yeah, right. It's a rally.

You have to go like this. Eight minutes and 49 seconds. Eight minutes and 48 seconds. Do the Andy Kaufman thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just put my wiener between them. I was like, well, if you're going to do it. Andy Kaufman would be like, he's doing an hour.

And he just goes, let's do the countdown. yeah right yeah for sure zero 59 59 yep yeah like callan's doing boston for new year's was like bro boston after midnight even on a normal night it turns into the purge yes wait uh you better bring your what is the um he's that laugh boston oh that's a great club though at least you're at the great club it's just yeah you're at a hotel yeah you don't have to walk outside. But that thing. No, you don't want to be outside. Mad Max.

It's also freezing in Boston. Yeah. They don't care, though. That's another thing, dude. You're at a cold place. Like, I don't know how cold places. I'm an L.A. guy. So I was born and raised in L.A.

I can't even imagine being at some 10 degree place. You're all bundled up. But the people that live there, they're so used to it. That's life. Are they used to it? Yes. Yeah, they are. Like Buffalo?

Is that why there's 50 million people living in California from other places? I'm telling you, you are such a pussy if you're like, I'm cold in a 10 degree place. I go back to Jersey because I'm never really there.

I'm freezing if it dips below 40 because that's how we are. And they feel like a bitch. That's how I'm in Denver. And they make sure I feel like a bitch. I'm like, damn, it's freezing. They don't even have jackets on. You know what I hate?

You have a turtleneck. Yeah. You know what I hate? When you go to a cold place and you say, oh, man, it's cold. They always say that. I hate it. They always say this. You should have been here last.

Oh, should I? You think this is cold? This is what I always say. That would be like if last week I was dating a chick 5'3", 300 pounds. That's me. This week I'm dating a chick 5'3", 375 pounds. And then you say, hey, that's a big chick. And then I go, you should have seen last week.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's true, man. You think this one is. You think this one's big. At a point they both fat you know what i mean so all i'm saying is like at 50 degrees for me cold is cold is the same as minus 50 degrees yep also that nothing triggers more than whether my dad you know we're catching up whatever on a once a month phone call like how's it going i'm like good and then we run out of things talking i'm like yeah we're getting some rain every single time we go you need it yeah it's triggering yeah

yeah yeah yeah yeah i'll talk to you later yeah yeah you need it everybody always telling people in la they need rain yeah like what rain and less homeless you know that's our thing now yeah but you bring up the rain like what are we going to talk about now? Also, are you guys New Year's resolution guys? Did you set a thing like, I want to lose 20 pounds? Yeah. Oh, January 1st. I'm going to get my shit together.

That's been my longstanding resolution. My resolution is no resolutions, and that's the only one I can possibly keep because what I do is I make myself a resolution. Then 10 days in, I'm not doing it. And then I feel like a piece of shit. Shame, which you should. Which I should, obviously. So I don't, the only one I have is the one I know I'm absolutely going to keep. And I'm just not going to have any resolutions.

That's why I fucks with Matt. You know what I'm saying? I don't do any of that shit. It's a win-win. Yeah. I believe I'm not going to do shit. I'm also not going to wait until January 1st to get my shit together. Exactly.

That's the other thing, dude. Now, bitch. Like, ooh, in November. Ooh, I got the best resolution. Start now. Yeah. Well, I mean, come on. Give people whatever.

You need the gun, like the start thing. I'm at the fucking line ready to be like. Right. I mean, I get that. Welcome to the Get Your Shit Together Internationals.

Right. Lane one. Yeah. I mean, I guess the thing is, too, is the holidays, you want to be on a diet during the holidays. Like Thanksgiving to Christmas, I'm not on my diet. I'm like, fuck it is, too, is the holidays. You want to be on a diet during the holidays. Like Thanksgiving to Christmas, I'm not on my diet.

I'm like, fuck it. I guess that is the idea. After the holidays, everybody gets fat a little bit. Well, the holidays start in February, you know? What? Yeah, because you have your Valentine's candy. Oh, you're talking about the weight gain. Valentine's Day is a made-up holiday.

I know, but that's when the weight gain starts. That's what I always say. Right. For you, it's the candy of Valentine's Day. That's what you're saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right. Yeah, February, Valentine's Day candy. March of Ides. Then March is my birthday. Oh, there you go. Yeah, yeah. And then you got the Shamrock Shake at Mickey D's. He just comes up

Callum's going to hook you up with someone? I'm going to count forever. Anytime he goes, I got a guy. Not his guy. Oh, don't. Callum's going to hook you up with someone? I'm going to count forever.

Anytime he goes, I got a guy. Not his guy. Oh, really? Because Callum was already like, you just need a good 25 minutes of lifting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Callum's built like Kermit the Frog. Is that the guy you want?

Now for reals, let's get back to the program what's this gentleman want speaking of losing weight

here we go good segue what's up fellas it's your boy papa bear i've got a debate club for you weight loss surgery or diet and exercise oh wow i don't know if you guys noticed i lost about 50 pounds since the last time you saw me oh wow, wow. My total weight loss is about 120 pounds. Damn, dude. And I lost 23 pounds. Did you staple that tummy? Once I achieve the goal weight, I may set another lower goal. Look at that.

Somebody a couple years ago told me I would not be able to do this without weight loss surgery. Looks like he sells Lincoln Navigators on the left. So just curious what your guys' opinions are. Do you feel like weight loss surgery. Looks like he sells Lincoln Navigators on the left. So just curious what your guys' opinions are. Do you feel like weight loss surgery is kind of cheating? My opinion is it seems like not as healthy for you. It's just doing it the old-fashioned way. What do you guys think? Old-fashioned way is tough.

Yeah, dude. Old-fashioned way, people want instant results. What's safer, losing weight the old-fashioned way or slicing a bunch of fat off my body? But then also stapling my stomach so it's smaller. Right, yeah. I had a friend who did the tummy surgery, but he ate so much rice, and there's a staple.

It burst the thing. He lost weight for like two months, and then got fatter. Well, here's the thing. Oh, gosh. To go from the size that guy's at down to the size he's at there, Oh, God. To go from the size that guy's at down to the size he's at there, that's actually the easier part. Okay. When you start dieting.

Because if you're a big fat ass and you've been eating, eating, eating, doing all this stuff, even if you just started eating something like that's what happened to that crazy Jared from Subway. He was super fat, and then he just started to eat like one Subway sandwich. And so he was like, yeah, because you're eating less. He was eating one sandwich and chasing kids. Right. That's why he was exercising. It was a big sandwich for all the he needed the energy to chase kids.

He caught them. But I'm saying once you like get down to like see where he's at right now that was the easier part. Now maintain it. Maintain but also to be in physical shape that's the hard part. You're talking about going from like a normal guy look. Yeah.

To being like. If you want to have a great physique. Right, right, right. That's the hard part. That's when it gets to me. I'll say this dude should be happy with what he did though. I mean, look at that. Hell yeah.

That's cancer. And I don't care how you did it. No. He's saying he has more goals. He's like, yeah, maybe he wants to have a six pack for the first time in his life. It's always good to have a goal, something to look forward to. Yeah. But that is nuts.

Now, here's the problem. I totally get that. When you lose all that weight, and you know my boy Keto George lost, I don't know how much, 300-something pounds. Oh, wow. When you lose all that weight, the skin is like, well, what are we doing here? And then your skin, you just got chapters. What do you do, though? You just hang off your skin.

But you got titties on top of your titties. But what do you do? You have to have surgery. Your skin never bounces back. They literally have to cut it up. So you turn around in life, there's a dude who's 800 pounds, got down to 190.

What? You should have seen his skin. I can't imagine. I'm not even trying to make it. His tits were literally down to his knees. Then I definitely shouldn't see that guy. You know what I mean? It's fun.

But he can jump off a building like Batman and then... Yeah, you know what I mean? Like a flying squirrel. Like a flying squirrel. Yeah, he's just... Just gets a Red Bull tattooed on his fucking lat. That is insane.

But again, you know, to answer this guy's question directly, I think it's better to do it the old-fashioned way because you're building habits. So your habits are now I'm eating less, and now he's down to this size, and he's like, okay, this is how I eat now. When you do that stomach thing, if you don't keep that habit, when it comes off, you're like, boom. Look, I remember Ralphie May, may he rest in peace. The first time I ever met him it was in san jose i was at a i was doing a show with some other people at another place he was at the improv and we went to go see him we went into the green room and he had just

gotten that stable surgery and then i look on the table and he's got like five different fast food places whoa like just food you know and you know and i was like i thought to myself oh man my goal i don't know if this is how you're supposed to do this. What was going on there? But he was trying. I mean, it was hard for him. You know what I mean? It's really tough.

It's tough. But that's why there's so many weight issues. Yeah, it's a tough thing. It takes hard work, discipline, too. And then also. That's the hardest part. The discipline. The discipline.

And then also the first seven days. Like if you can just get past that seventh day on any diet. Can I tell you? Seven days. I hear this. It's not seven days. For me, it's seven. For you.

But you've been a professional athlete your whole life. But then when I get about- It's not seven days, man. No, I'm saying to even get- Six months, bro. No, at least. At least. Seven days is bullshit.

Stop telling people that. No, no. If you can get to seven, and then you're like, all right, this isn't too bad. But then around week four, you're like, man, this shit is boring. That's what I'm saying. I'm so sick of this. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. I'm so sick of this. Yeah. That's what I'm saying.

And if you have kids, my son, we're at the movies. I can't imagine. Bullshit. I'm like, well, I love Twizzlers. Right, right, right, right, yeah. It's hard. It's hard. I don't know what the true – I wish we had some sort of psychologist to call in or talk to us about.

No, we don't need one. What is the real – We have all the answers to everything. It's just interesting to hear. we don't need one what is the real i'm no we have all the answers to everything it's just interesting to hear yeah it's just interesting to hear what the real why people feel the way they feel why people do what they do because then you can listen to that and be like oh yeah he's talking i know i relate to that i feel like so much of this stuff is individual too like the one size fits all this is how it is never is right there is though there is like whether it's keto uh whatever carnivore whatever diet the number one thing is shut your fucking mouth yeah it's all about calorie restriction no matter what the diet is no

it's true calorie restriction ask chin just be 300 pounds almost 300 he always fights me on this pictures 385 we have pictures We showed him many times. For real? It's amazing, though. It never gets old. I can't get enough of it. Can I give one little tip? I'd say if you don't eat in the morning, chances are you're not going to get hungry.

That's true. So that's one thing. And then once you start- So you're saying don't eat in the morning. Yeah, just in the morning. It's good for your body, too. This is a good example of something right here. What happened to breakfast is the most important meal of the day?

That was bullshit. That was bullshit. That was a lie. That was bullshit. That was a lie. That was propaganda. That was a lie. That's like saying fossil fuel comes from dinosaurs. So Denny's did that? The next one is just you'll start noticing stuff.

If you stick to it for like maybe two weeks, three weeks, you'll start noticing differences. And then that's a huge motivation. You just stick to it more and more. Let me ask you. Because I remember I've had many times where I fluctuated in weight. What's the heaviest you've been, uh like 300 something and what do you know um like i'm still heavy i'm like 280 i'm 63 you know what i mean yeah but i remember getting down to like a certain weight and the thing that was great for me was like going to a store that i couldn't

shop at before oh yeah getting like a size 36 jeans right Right, right, right. And I was like, oh, shit. I was in a, you know, and I was putting them on slow. It encouraged you to keep. And then I got, I was like, oh, size 36, bitches. That's why it's such a shame with Balenciaga. They did all that weird kiddie porn shit, but I wear a size medium there. I walked out like a bad bitch.

I was like, medium, hey. By the way, I still wear my Balenciaga. Balenciaga's too ill To fucking throw away Fuck that It's so tough I got this jean jacket That is fire I haven't worn it since

Balenciaga's the shit dude Start fucking with kids I'm out I wear my shit Look at your chin there God Damn That's not even my biggest

He had a girl attached That's when I was getting lean He had a whole girl Attached to his lap too Yeah he was like Jeff Dunham That's a puppet This is how they do Santa Claus in China

They see With a vest Yeah Santa wears a vest This is how Santa This is Santa You know That's a pimping Ass Santa right there

Hell yeah Yeah you were a big bitch God damn Way bigger And still work And he had a cardigan Dress on This is crazy

Yeah Janko jumper That's why it looks like A. Those are JNCOs? Yeah, JNCO jeans. Shout out to JNCOs. I had a green pair. Bravo, dude. I love JNCOs.

No, that's a dress. I've seen this a million times. I thought it was traditional garb. That's a muumuu. This is what's crazy. This is where Chin was stropping that Elaine Bryant. Yeah, that's a Tommy Bahama vest. No, what's crazy is your girl's outfit there is now in style.

Yeah, I mean, I wear that. I wear that. Acid colored jeans, the white sneakers. Everything comes back. And she has wrinkly socks on. She had the regular ribbed white socks. Yeah, wrinkly socks are like a Sharpay's. Ribbed white socks, yeah, like my dad wears.

That girl weighed 80 pounds. And how did you ask her out to prom, Chin? It was Sadie Hawkins. He just picked her up and took her to the top of a building. Yeah. You're mine. It looked like they had uncomfortable chairs at the prom. It was like a barn theme.

That's why she was like, I got to bring a couch with me. She's like, do you mind if I sit on you during the dance? Oh my gosh. Did you dance at all, Chin? Yeah. He did the rock away. Do you look back at this as like motivation because i do that no because i i stuck to what i'm doing you're good now yeah yeah as soon as i start slipping i know how to get back so yeah

yeah i mean looking at you i would absolutely never have guessed that yeah me neither it's my favorite but i look at his cheeks and i can see but i'm i have big cheeks i'm korean too you know no no but what i'm saying is like can tell that the weight goes there first. Oh, yeah, 100%. Because that's when I know, too. When I've had a little bit, I'll be like, oh, uh-oh. Oh, really? Uh-oh.

Up here? Oh, for sure. Up here? You go straight through my face. I'm slowly morphing into Joey Diaz. Slowly, my face. I'm like, I'm a mini Uncle Joey. Well, that's what happens.

Which is fun. As a man, when you get older, that's what it is. It goes to your face. You turn into a hound dog. You turn into a fucking hound dog. You lose weight like this. Now, here's other misinformation we grew up with as kids. Once you hit 40, that your metabolism slows down.

That's not true. They did a 20-year study on it. Your metabolism does not slow down. It sticks with you throughout your life. You slow down. And that's not true they did like a 20-year study on your metabolism does not slow down it sticks with you throughout your life you slow down and that's what happens i mean your body mass your testosterone lowers but your metabolism does not oh i see what you're saying yeah that's all misinformation so why is everybody always getting fat when they turn 40 it's because they move slow they move slow and they move less testosterone testosterone then the testosterone. Testosterone is the biggest thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Women, I don't always tell you. As a current chubby guy, when I look at people and people talk about body positivity and all this kind of stuff.

Like Lizzo? Whatever the thing is, for me, I know why most people are fat. Why? They're lazy. Okay. Just period. Okay. You're not a lazy guy, though.

No, no, no no dude when it comes to like it it does take discipline it is it's a it's a even if you're a disciplined person it's a next level of discipline that they've got to continue to like be like i'm only going to eat this amount of calories i'm not i'm not i'm not going to have that you know it's like i don't want to have i'm only going to have dessert say once a week or i'm only going to eat this amount of calories i'm not i'm not i'm not going to have that you know it's like i don't want to have i'm only going to have dessert say once a week or i'm only going to have this amount of food oh i'm not going to have a lot of carbs i'm not going to like there's discipline that you have to have and so when i see somebody that's like you know you go and we all subconsciously know you could see somebody and be like that's lazy fat like there's some people you

can look at and be like that's a big boned person yes yes but you can look at somebody and be like you could do better yeah you know what i mean like but we but we live in this world where we're supposed to like not say anything but it's like you could do better you know what i mean but then they call it fast shaming it's like no it's just what it is speaking for myself i totally get like when i start to do workouts and when i stop i know why it's it's about maintaining. It's about maintaining the discipline. Maintenance and discipline is hard. The whole problem with all the perspective on diets, it's not a diet.

It's a lifestyle change. Exactly. You're not doing this for eight weeks. Diet implies there's an end to it. Your entire life is going to change. You're going to eat less. You're going to eat less. Quit eating sugar.

But, dude, it's like 180. Don't eat the things that are delicious. It's like that's a hard thing to do. You know why they're delicious though? Fat. Because they're building fat. Like we learned to put fat on our skin and bones when it would get cold to eat more things that made us fat so it tastes good.

That's why it tastes good to make us fat. This is when Chin, he ate that guy. Then he took that girl to prom. This is just before he ate that guy. It's like a Korean Ren and Stimpy. Eric, but here's the thing. If you got really skinny, like alarming skinny, it wouldn't be fun, man. Like when Jonah Hill got skinny, I'm like, what are you doing?

I want your cholesterol high. You're funnier when your cholesterol is too high. Now you just look like a regular, regular guy. I'll tell you this right now. My funny is right here. It's not. It is. No, you're right. Yeah, you're right. You're funnier when you're close to the real man. Now you just look like a regular, regular guy. I'll tell you this right now. My funny is right here. It's not. It is. No, you're right.

Yeah, you're right. You're right. You're right. I'm just saying. Your funny is in the brain. I have an expressive face like this. This has fluctuated over the years. Nobody cares about that.

It's about, you know what I mean? Just the trolls on the internet that like to like, they always go to the same thing. They just shit on everybody. You know one of my favorite things is I love when somebody like some troll it hits me i'm gonna be like hey you know you and then they use some fat ass or something like that as if i'm going to the store and buying skinny jeans right like they're trying to say to me like you fat ass i'm like wait am i am i fat what you know i needed to read this comment i realized oh my god thank you for letting i thought i was skinny yeah this whole time i was What? I needed to read this comment to realize I'm not a chick. Oh my God. Thank you for letting me.

I thought I was skinny. This whole time I was living a skinny life. Yeah, fuck you. Yeah, I know. Anonymous people on the internet are just the bottom of the bottom. That Ashley Graham, I'm not into real big chicks, but she is fine. That's the thing. Everybody's like, look, she can be so successful.

And it's like, that's a hot girl. Her face is gorgeous. Big is beautiful still. It's like, no, that woman is so successful. And it's like, that's a hot girl. Her face is gorgeous. Big is beautiful still. It's like, no, that woman is beautiful. Can I tell you? I have one thing to say about this. Roll out the back. I have one thing to say about this.

Just because somebody likes something doesn't mean it's right. Yeah. Crack is good for people too. I love crack. People love crack. People love cocaine. People love drinking too much. People love meth.

People love sugar. Just because I like it, drinking too much. People love meth. People love sugar. Just because I like it. That ain't the excuse. Nope. Okay? So that's all I'll say to that. A lot of bad things I like to do. She's the exception.

She's just a fucking hot girl. Yeah. Her face is gorgeous. Yeah, and hot. You know what I mean? This is like the weird thing. Everybody's acting like you could be big and beautiful. We know.

We see her. That's just as simple as that. She happens to be hot. That's the end of the story. There's nothing else to it. Yeah, but here's the thing, too, though. Conveniently, they're picking the girl that just happens to have the same curvy shape as a skinnier girl. Exactly.

And they're trying to use it. But there's big chicks out there who are like, yeah, I don't look like this. Exactly. And they're trying to use it. But there's big chicks out there who are like, yeah, I don't look like this. Exactly. This is not what I look like in a bathing suit. I have a gun. What I'm saying is she doesn't represent fat girls. At all. So stop. At all. It's just making... You know what I mean?

She's an anomaly. Well, she's my North Star. Yeah, well, there you go. Damn. What's that noise? Is there a heater up? Air conditioning. God, it's annoying. Wow, I didn't even hear that.

Callan said he was so strong. Callan raced him, too. He beat the fuck out of Callan. Oh, I didn't so strong. Callan raced him, too. He beat the fuck out of Callan. Oh, I didn't even know. Callan raced him on, like, a beer crawl, and he starched Callan. And then the other one was... I mean, there's pretty much nothing more impressive than that. You say what's more impressive?

I mean, that's pretty badass. Although, if he signed up for, like, a Ryzen fight where he can kick to the face... I know. Fuck. But what I'm saying is this. He doesn't have a leg day, so you know what I mean? It cuts his, yeah. Yeah, he skips leg days.

Yeah, he's skipping leg days. So every day is, you know what I mean? Oh, this thick boy trying to get up on the rafters for Argentina. Oh, my God. I would say it's more impressive the guy with no legs. Look at this shame. Look at that human shame. Oh, my gosh.

What? Also, hey, you try, too. You know, he's just banking on the boys pulling him up. You also try. There's no try. That guy's not doing anything. It's like he passed out. They need the no leg guy to be up there.

Oh. Wow. If the no leg guy was up there, he would have pulled panning over at the end and there's like millions of people watching is amazing tits he's like god damn it yeah this guy's gonna live in infamy for the rest of his life here's the thing though now you want to have like you know now you want to be shy and shame you know you're up there now you're gonna be like i gotta pull my're up there. Now you want to be like, I got to pull my shirt down. His life was on the line, though. He should have just taken his shirt off. No, that big boy falls down.

He should have thought all of those steps through. My shirt's going to ride up. I'm not going to make it. What's he even going for there? Every single person in that crowd was watching that guy do that. Oh, yeah, this is Callum doing a... No, this is Belial Muhammad. What's the guy's name with no legs?

No Leg Fighter MMA debut. Keep scrolling down. This is Calenduna. No, this is Belial Muhammad. What's the guy's name with no legs? No leg fighter, MMA debut. Keep scrolling down. That is impressive. I mean, we know which more impressive. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, come on, dude. But I mean, it's like, but I, you know, that guy's an example of like human resilience. Oh, yeah.

And it's also an example of like, it example of when they say you lose your eyes, if you lose your sight, your hearing gets better. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I think it's like, you know, that's what we do. He lost his legs, and so his upper body is stronger than any upper body of any person ever. Oh, here he is. Yeah, for sure, for sure.

Calen, dude. Calen's crab walking here. Yeah. He's like bear crawling against this dude. He starches Calen. He doesn't fare too well. No. Where's this gym?

box? They don't box, but he just wrestles the shit out of them. His head arm choke must be filthy. That's all I would do if I was that guy. Yeah. Imagine though. Oh, can they just kick him in the face? That's what I'm saying. If I'm rising, we're allowed kicks in the face. He, though. Oh. Can they just kick him in the face? That's what I'm saying. If I'm Ryzen, where they allow kicks in the face, he's fucked.

Yeah. If Ryzen offers him a contract, I'm not his manager, but I'd turn it down. No, but Nick is saying, like, you're in an alley, and this dude, you know, hands up on you. Like, yeah. That would be a bad way. He's like, yo, bitch. And you're with your wallet. And you're with your girl.

Yeah, and Nick is like, I just kicked this dude. I'm going to stomp him out. Like, Nick is like, this is what I was saying about the fight between Nick and Chin. I need to know if there are rules. I'm taking Chin. No rules. Nick is already thinking about like, I would fucking kick this dude in the throat. But head kicks are legal

Unless they're considering him a downed opponent Because he's on his knees He's a downed opponent a lot of times Now Nick if he sits up Right then is it Is he down or So he's all grapple Is basically

I mean yes Listen man all jokes aside this is like i said this is an example of yes inspiring it's an example of human resilience and it's like this is what i'm you know and it's mega impressive i mean there's no chance like what i'm saying is this this is what i'm talking about what i was talking about earlier about people being lazy okay yes so if this dude with no legs yeah can keep he has himself in shape like this yeah hey us fat people shut up use your legs shut up use your legs you know what i'm saying like shut up look at this guy that's why i know that it is about it is about sure discipline determination

and it's a hard thing i'm speaking from the hardest thing it's what's your go-to eric are you a late night snacker with you know yeah that's that's the that's the thing it's like no it's about no no it's about how much i eat so what i've done in the last year and a half has just been like i don't eat as much right i just i just i know i know during the pandemic was when i really lost weight because i was cooking my own food yeah and i was like oh shit i'm not i'm not you shit, I'm not eating certain things. They say something that helps out is when you order at a restaurant, just cut in half and put it on a different plate. Because you're taught to lick your plate clean as a kid. That was a mistake.

They were wrong. That was definitely wrong. Finish your food. There was also bread and sugar on the grill. How many things were our parents wrong about? Just everything. Dumbasses, am I right? Yeah.

Hey, all of our parents, you're dumb. You fucked up. You're super dumb. I was addicted to sugar as a kid. Me too. I got these cavities. Sugar is like, what's the difference between sugar and crack? One's tasty.

I think crack makes you feel better than sugar. You think so? I do think so. You have a double doozer from Mrs. Fields? Two warm chocolate chip cookies with ice in the middle? I mean, I have had some good cookies. If I had that right now, the pain on my teeth would bring me to my knees. I would still do it.

Right, yeah. I think I have, like, sugar does something to me, man. I have to, like, something awesome. You just can't stop? Something awesome? No, no, no. Because that's why I know now Like if I have a Red bull with sugar in it

It don't do nothing for me You know Because I I immediately want to go to sleep So I have sugar crashes like this Oh I see I just don't I actually just

Like It's very rare Where I'll have dessert and stuff That's my thing with intervention Now If you have weight problems You watch intervention You're like

God these bitches are skinny I need to get some meth. Yeah, methyl. Right? They're all skinny. Swim your ass up real quick. Like, fuck sugar. Get on cocaine.

Yeah. You lose weight like a motherfucker. And you don't want to eat. Yeah, except alcohol, yeah. What's this gentleman want? Not a good one either, right? This guy's cold. That hat is cold.

This guy would say something about should have been here last week. Yeah. You think today was cold? Yep. We need it. What's up, guys? It's Lucas, middle of nowhere, Wisconsin. Oh!

Got the card on. Little tykes sneaking in. In the snow. It's pretty great out here. Wisconsin. Love it. So you got your baby just out here with no hat on. I was trying to think of a new segment for you guys, and I was trying to think of something

about when you do something dumb or feel naive. It was just like the segment. Oh, wow. I didn't believe that. But I felt really dumb this summer. about when you do something dumb or feel naive it was just like the segment oh wow but i felt really dumb this summer i was moving across country i was in omaha getting gas and a guy walked by me and his pants were below his underwear i've never seen that before i grew up south of spokane about an hour a lot of white people that being said i tapped him on the shoulder and told him hey hey, your pants are falling down. And he pushed me away, flipped me off, told me to F off.

I could have told you that. I felt really, really dumb. Got back in the car and just went away because I've never seen sagging before. So let me know if there's something dumb or something that felt really stupid. And hopefully it can be a new segment. I didn't have a creative name. But love you guys. Stay sweet. This guy was an adult I didn't have a creative name. But love you guys. Stay sweet.

This guy was an adult and didn't know what sagging was? Is that what he said? Yeah. It's Wisconsin. But you know something? There are large segments of our population. Yeah. That one, they still use bunny rabbit ears on their television.

Right. But sagging? They don't have a lot of internet. They've never met a black person in person. There's a lot of people. I'm just saying, I'm not surprised that some dude who has to wear a hat like this and is not going to fucking sag because his butt would be freezing. Not sagging is one thing.

I totally get that, but to never have even heard of it. You're so coastal. You're an elitist. You're an elitist. Sagging? You're an elitist. But there's even cartoons where the cartoons are sagging. I mean, characters are sagging. He's watching cartoons when he's like shoveling snow off of his driveway. But wait, what was his idea for a segment?

Just times you felt dumb in public, kind of like fucked up or something. Oh, man. That'll be tricky to come up with just one. Weekly on this podcast? Every day of my life yeah uh or it's weird i remember when i was fighting even when i'm doing stand-up someone would be like good luck i'm like you too man good luck i'm like fuck yeah good luck for what right yeah yeah oh my thing actually this is so dumb but i and i've done this more than once actually just did it the other day too i'll say uh like i'll see a neighbor and i'll be like hey how are you you know and they'll say good how are you and then i'll say good how are you and i'll be like oh why did i do

I think I think Chris had the Batmobile and I just always played with it but we ended up both wanting it, obviously, at the same time. We just never would shut up about it. Going on and on and on.

What? You and Chris? Can't shut up about something? And we were young, too. This was like three and six. Would you grab it and Chris would be like, oops? Yep, yep, yep. That's my toy.

But I remember telling Chris, like, how much do I have to pay you to punch you as hard as I can in the face? And he thought about it, and he was like, 10 bucks. Right? How old were you guys? I was like 10. That's all the money in the world back then. Oh, yeah.

10 bucks. That's $10 a box. 10 bucks. I was shocked, though. You were balling. Yeah. I was like, well, I don't have 10 bucks, but one of these days, I'm going to. So one day, we're wrestling. Give me about four months. Yeah, yeah, though. You were balling. Yeah, I was like, well, I don't have $10, but one of these days I'm going to. So one day we're wrestling.

And then he's like just dying. There you go. So we're rolling around. There's 10. Rolling around wrestling, actually on a bed. And I forget, it was about like a video game or something. And they toppled over. And I'm just so mad.

And I get enough distance between us. And I just hit him as hard as I could then in the face. He falls off of the bed. And it's just, I'm on the bed so I don't even see what hits what the hell happens and he just

he just comes he's like this 10 bucks it was amazing dude and I was like okay okay okay mom can I have 8 bucks

Right away Calm as hell I remember like gifts And we've talked about it already I remember something Like young But I'm saying In my

Like say From 18 till now I couldn't tell you Like a gift That was like Right That was amazing Yeah

That's sad It's kind of sad I think that way too, though. As an adult, I don't like getting gifts. It's like an issue I have, I guess. I don't like getting them. I'd much rather give gifts. And even then, I'm bad at that, but I'd rather do that.

I love giving gifts. It's tough. If as an adult you like getting gifts more than giving gifts, you're straight up weird. Can you remember a gift? I mean, you grew up sleeping in cars and shit. Did you ever get any cool gifts where you're like, fuck yeah? Basically anything.

Well, last week we looked at the Ricochet, that car that I had. That was really dope. And then Packer tickets were like the best thing ever. That's a big one. You got a Brett Varve jersey or a Chamorro jersey? I got the first jersey I ever got before I was obsessed with the Packers when I was like five. I got a Barry Sanders jersey.

Whoa, Lions. Legit. That was a dope pick, but then it was all. He was my favorite player growing up. Oh, man. Unbelievable, that guy. Junior Seau was mine. I remember my mom, for my birthday, got me.

I was so into football. She got me. My favorite players were Junior Seau and Steve Atwater. Oh, yeah. Steve Atwater was one of the Bronco greats. He was dope, dude. Safety. Safety, yeah.

So he was a safety. Junior Seau was a linebacker. She got me a cake. She had Albertson's custom make it. Junior Seau tackling Steve Atwater. How does that happen? It doesn't. Exactly.

I was so triggered. Yeah, you must have been pissed. That would never happen, Mom. Yeah, yeah. You fucked up. You ruined my birthday. Two different teams. Why would Junior Seau be tackling Steve Atwater? Both on defense, Mom. It doesn't make sense. This is how I feel about it. You, you must have been pissed. That would never happen, Mom. Yeah, yeah. You fucked up. You ruined my birthday. Two different teams. Why would you say I'll be talking to Steve Allen?

Both on defense, Mom. It doesn't make sense. This is how I feel about you. You know you fucked up, right? This is how I feel. It was just like mess of society. I went, you know you fucked up. You know you fucked up, right?

Hey, Mom, you know you fucked up, right? Hey, Mom, you know you fucked up. You know you ruined my birthday, right? Yeah, thanks for that. Why would they be tackling each other? They're never on the field at the same time you're done, bitch. Think before you design a cake. Like I said, this is how I feel when you start talking about DC and Marvel stuff.

Same shit. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Triggering old fights now. Yeah. Okay. What do you got, Nick? Oh, this guy getting poked in the butt right now.

Look at him. Right when the video starts. This guy just drank three red line energy juice. And he's trying to be cool about it, too. Yeah. The video started. The video started. We're doing a video. My butt hole. What's up, Golden Hour? With that new show, you need new categories. three red line energy Yeah, let me just

Golden hour with that you need new categories so today the Florida for sure on Beach yep Oh, and you guys bingo something else Fire or retire at what age do you need to start quitting? Oh certain thing? Oh, that's good doing foot races That's good, dude. Thick mutders. Yeah, I'm with you. So I'm 33. I've been doing these 5K races for five years. 5K, shit. I'm at one right now, Saturday morning. Nice.

And every year, I think I'm going to quit, and then I keep signing up and doing them again. And they're fun, but I hate it. I kind of just do it for that inner Goggins. So fire, retire, 5K races on the weekend, Warriors. Let me know. Thanks, guys. No, keep doing it. I mean, that's pretty sick.

Go on. No, no, no. I'm saying keep doing it. He's in shape. You're a good-looking dude. That's not – no. I was going to say fire, retire is more like, you know, I don't need to go to Comic-Con anymore.

Right, right, right. I don't need to go to Burning Man at 6. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like fire, burning. I don't need to go to Burning Man at 6 Yeah yeah yeah Fire Burning Man Coachella is like When you hit 30 You should not be at Coachella You know what the problem though is Eric

Unless you're like a Logan Paul or Jake Paul Where you have the money back then To do Coachella right or Burning Man right You need money And you really don't get money Until you're about 30, 40 years old Sorry Yeah that's true

Oh you missed the boat? Yeah sorry That's fucked up You're not in. I'm not into like... He's not convinced. I'm not convinced. No, I'm sorry.

But what about fire, like actual occupations though? Because then it's kind of interesting because it's like athletes, when do you retire? Like if you're Tom Brady, you retire when you're 55. Tom Brady should have retired last year, right?

Right, yeah. But should he? You're not playing very well. If you wanted to end, you're saying like... Tippy, tippy, tippy. That's different from like when do you let – so do you end at the peak of your career

or do you end at like as you're coming down but you're still productive? I mean, Vince Carter played until he was 40 and he was productive. He was 19 a game and helping out his team. Look at Joe Montana. Yeah. Balled out with the Niners. They went to the Chiefs. We're like, what?

Yeah, that's right. He got the Chiefs to the AFC Championship game. Brett Varve with the Vikings. Balled out. It's tough for everybody. Fighting will let you know. Because if you stick around too long, you end up face down, ass up. Yeah, right.

It's like, oh, I should get out of here. Combat sport, for sure. Oh, as soon as you start losing your edge, like, man, unless they give me a legend fight, I need to get the fuck out of here. No, but you have someone like LeBron James, who's now 38, right? And he is still, like, in our top 10 player in the league, which is unbelievable. Yeah, that's insane. But what I'm saying is this.

He's now arguably not the best player on this team, right? Right, right, right, right. But he's still helping the team. Hell yeah. This guy might be able to go two, three more being a help i'm sure yes but if he did but but we're saying do you quit because you're not this anymore or are you still okay like i think there's something admirable about i like when you go people go out on top athletes when they're like i just did it i just won my championship i'm 34 i'm want Messi to retire. I'm 34.

I'm done. With Messi, I'm like, get out of there, dude. Clearly slowed down. Sorry. Too much money. He has money. Money's not an issue. Money's not an issue.

Wait, wait, wait. He will continue to make so much money, though. He will. Listen, when we're saying so much money, we're not doing it justice. How much do they make? Soccer players are the highest paid athletes in the world. $400 million guaranteed. Stupid money.

Like the one old boy who played for France was making, I think, 30 million a year. What? And it's guaranteed money. I had no idea. If you leave, they still pay you more. I had no idea. Like Messi, he could come here now and play in whatever league.

MLS. I don't like that shit. I know, but he can do it. He's not so down to the ankles. Now he's in the States, like living his best life. Right, right, right. You brought up Barry Sanders? Yeah, I mean, he didn shit. I know, but he can do it. When their nuts are down to their ankles. He's so much money. Now he's in the States living his best life. Right, right, right. You brought up Barry Sanders?

Yeah. I mean, he didn't win a championship, but his last year, he played all 16 games, had 1,500 yards. No, bring up Terrell Davis. Remember the year he stopped like one yard short of a— Oh, he rushed for 2,053 yards. Is Terrell Davis? So sick. He made the Hall of Fame?

Yeah, yeah. He made the Hall of Fame for his foul.. He made the Hall of Fame first ballot. He was sick, dude. But look, he barely played. Oh, my God. But look, he balled out 2,000 yards. Like, balled out from Georgia. I think fourth or fifth round draft pick.

Balled out for four years. And then he was gone. Hall of Famer. He's got a great story. Running backs have such short shelf lives, dude. It's crazy. That's why they don't draft them top five, top ten. Because they take so much punishment. Like, top five top ten because it takes so much

punishment like travis henry giant dude takes so much punishment or christian mccaffrey say come on barkley monsters yeah but man you gotta be a real outlier just banged up dude yeah yeah yeah this was this guy gave an update after his oh okay his run finished first what's up boys i need to send another video real quick to give you a recap. I just finished the race, and I took third in the age group, and 18th out of a few hundred. Oh, keep doing it. So I think I've got to stick with this a little longer.

What are you going to do? It's also just running. First of all, when I run from the car to my front door because I have to go to the bathroom, I'm not able to do a video like this. You're funny sometimes. I'm not able to do a video like this. I'm going to be like.

So you keep going, bro. Keep going. I'm jealous. Because you say he's 33. He's 33. That's going to help you when you're my age. When he's 45, he's going to be like, oh, man, I was still cooking when I made 30. He's going to do like an age group thing.

Let me ask you this, Eric. It's comics. When do you stop touring? Oh, now that's the thing. There you go. That is the thing, yeah. Because before you answer, before you answer, there's some guys that do it. You know, like one of the greatest to ever do it, Richard Pryor.

Like, you know, Rogan had to follow him. They would wheel him up on a wheelchair. Yeah, I saw know Rogan had to follow him when they would wheel him up on a wheelchair I saw that those days it was terrible they would wheel him up really on the car

and then he'd get up there do his thing and then wheel him back off and Rogan had to wait and then follow that Richard Pryor on a wheelchair oh my god

that sounds wild yeah but it was it was sad in the end though yeah for sure but I'm just saying yeah he was sad in the end for sure at what point

did you stop yeah but he wasn't touring he was just doing spots to like you know I'm saying like it's not like they had a tour bus no I just mean the way he was sick was sad you don what point do you stop touring? Yeah, but he wasn't touring. He was just doing spots. I'm saying it's not like they had a tour bus. No, I just mean the way he was sick was sad.

You don't decide when you stop touring. The business tells you. So when your fan base stops coming? Yeah. How old's Jay Leno? Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

That boy sells tickets. That's what I'm trying to tell you. Do you see him after the accident? Yeah, look at Freddy Krueger. I'm just saying that the business will tell you.

He's like the coach for Virginia Tech now. Yeah. Oh my God. Business lets you know, man. So you're It's like the coach for Virginia Tech now. Yeah. Oh, my God. Business lets you know, man. Oh, wow. So you're saying once you stop selling tickets, get off the road. Yeah.

But then it's like your career. Some people do it differently. Yeah. It's like Ray Romano. He'd just stand up like four times a year. Look at him looking like everyone's grandma. Yeah. Hey, but that's for third degree burns or whatever it was.

Oh, dude, it's amazing. Bring up the Virginia Tech coach, please. That's when you got money. That's that I got money, son. Bro, you have no idea how much. So you know Jay Leno's never touched? He's only saved the money. Yes, Beamer.

He has the same condition. You know Jay Leno's never touched the money he's made off of the Tonight Show? Get out of here. He saves all of it. He only spends the money he makes off stand-up. What? Now he makes millions upon millions of dollars doing stand-ups. Of course, but like what?

He's never touched the money. That's hundreds. I mean, how much money is that? That's a lot of money. Think how much he was making back in the day. That's so much money. I mean, those guys. I mean, you know, when you hear about somebody who worked their ass off or they grew up poor.

He definitely worked his ass off. They struggled. He struggled, struggled, struggled. You learn how to be frugal you know even even in my small time career i freaking have saved so much of my money that i've made because you never think you're gonna work again right in in our industry as a writer like myself like i've had great jobs great paying jobs dude i'm stressing three weeks after that because i don't know when the next one is that's what i'm saying so just because i hit it big on one job this writer strike on the

it's terrible yeah well do you see the reason writer strike against the the ai shit yeah well that's that's gonna put a ton of people out of work for real i don't know if chris tells you this whenever i'm about to make a purchase i send him a picture what do you think dude some fire kick something like him because he's saying it's me he'll talk me into it like dude how much you selling merch? Right, yeah, yeah. Exactly. He'll send me pictures.

I'm in Boston. I'm about to buy this. I'm like, do it, dude. Both egging each other on, yeah. Each other's green lights. Just for shoes that they'll wear one time. Look at that. The lobsters.

Wait till Chris sees these. Whoa. The lobsters. I know, but cousins, you guys already know what you're going to do. And you just like... I want validation. They're just the green light. Yeah. It's just the green light.

The light's already green. These motherfuckers are already in the intersection going like, yeah, man. Right next to each other. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Through each other's windows. They're going like this. They're going like this. Do it!

Yeah. This guy's serious as fuck. This guy's in the shins. What up, Golden Hour? This your boy, Chav Got a debate club or whatever y'all are calling shit now Chris, Eric, Brendan, what's up? Driving, since everyone else that's on this show travels for work

I drive six hours from my house to Oklahoma City And then two more hours to the town that I work in Twice a week. Leave on Sundays to go to work. Come home on Thursdays or Fridays whenever we get the job done. I make decent money. Supply power to neighborhoods and substations and stuff

like that on a directional board rig. But yeah, fucking let me know what you think about driving for fucking 12 hours every week for free just to make some fucking money for these ungrateful ass kids and these money-grubbing wives. Yeah. So, okay. Plus, plus, plus.

Oh, look at that. This guy's great. So, here's the thing. What he should do. He should absolutely move because his job is eight hours away. Move closer. Move closer. Move closer to your job.

No, no. But his next hours? Yes, dude. I mean, just yes. It's not like he's like, hey, man, I live in whatever. I live in the Inland Empire. I got to drive to Malibu. Like Oklahoma City, the real estate is not expensive.

Yeah, just move closer. You got a family? Can you, Nick, this is what we need. We need a follow-up with this guy. Why does he live where he lives? And I'm sure it's a great reason. Now, going back to the question we answered earlier is when do you stop doing stuff? This is an example of this too.

It's an example like those people that work on oil rigs and these kind of stuff and they have to go away two, three days. Yeah, but get paid so much. Or they get paid a lot of money. Because it's so dangerous. So my thing is like bank your dough and then you have to get to a certain point where you're like, hey, do you want to be a family man? Do you want to be around your family? I don't know. It seems like he has a wife and kids.

Yeah, he does. There's going to be a certain point where you're going to be like, this is a lot. My uncle has been a truck driver since I was a baby. He's 60-something now, still drives trucks. Makes good money, though, right? He owns the truck. Right, right, right. He makes good money, but still, it's a beast.

That job sounds just so trying, dude. I could not do that. There was a time when I was a kid, though, that I thought about, like, maybe I wanted to drive a truck. I see the appeal. You'd see a cool truck, and I'd be like, ooh. Then they'd show, like, the inside of the truck. And I'd be like, oh, man, my inside of my truck would be dope. Also, when you're young, the appeal of the possible adventure of it.

And every time you pass a truck, you'd be like, dude, it's bomb. But also appeal, you mean lot lizards? You're just getting your dicks sucked by someone

When you're an adult, you learn about that shit. Special K, lot lizard, Gina in Missouri or whatever. You can't wait to get the stop to get your rocks off. That's their life. But you hear about

some really shady, seedy stuff going on at truck stops. Nick? Oh, dude. Yeah, I love road trips. I love road trips myself. Dude, you buy a nice Rhino 5000,

like that dick pill energy drink, Rhino 5000, and then Gina from Missouri sucks you off in your truck. Dude, the dirtiest shit. You're living, daddy. The dirtiest shit happens at those places, man. At regular gas stations, the dirtiest shit happens in the middle of nowhere.

Dude, it's just like, it's how it is. You know what's crazy about all these AIs, man? Yeah. My friend just sent me a text and said like, hey, I'm about to go on a commercial audition. And then my phone gave me options of responses. And one of them was good luck. Oh, okay, yeah. So that's like, wow.

That fits, yeah. I'm saying like that's Siri being like, oh. That's too much. Yeah, man, I don't know if I like that. What's funny is though, that's too much and that is like half of 1% of what it's going to be in like three years. You don't even realize you're having a full-on conversation with your friend.

Right, right, right. It's not even you. Auto conversation. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? I'm going to be great. Hey, phone, be me for an hour. Compliment my wife.

Go have a, you know. She's like, thank you for what you said earlier. And I'm like, anytime. Talk to my wife for a bullshit day. Or dinner. My wife's like, so Gina was like, oh my God. I'm like, oh really? She said that?

That's insane. That would be amazing, actually, if you could have an AI be you over text with your girl. This is the BTK killer. Bring up the BTK killer. Spot on, Nick. That is a mustache right there, dude. This looks like my old school days. I like his glasses.

That's a whole good look right there. There you go. That's a whole look. That guy, that's the one. There you go. Same person. There it is. There you go.

That's... This is how we do it. This is how we do it. Look at him on the right, dude. Same guy, but younger. The BTK, now that's a scary dude. The worst of the worst. Whoa.

I hate him. And I like serial killers. I hate him. No, there's no fun with that guy. No, not fun. Ain't no fun. Not a fun deep dive. I still think Gacy was worse than that.

John Wayne Gacy? You think so? Yeah, maybe the younger dude. They're doing the same Dahmer treatment on John Wayne Gacy. I don't like that. Yeah. I don't like it. He's an interesting one.

Because Gacy, I watched that Netflix series about hearing his voice. The real one, yeah. Hearing his voice. I was like, that dude was the voice. The real one, yeah. Hearing his voice. I was like, that dude, that dude was the devil. Yeah, sure, yeah. Dahmer at least was like,

I can't stop. I got a problem. Kill me. It's good I'm in jail. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Richard Ramirez straight up. Well, he was like in touch with Satan, that guy.

You know what I mean? Before he killed him, make him say, hail Satan, shit. Right, yeah, that is, that's just the most disturbing thing, you know? Yeah. He was kind of handsome though. If he kept his mouth that's just the most disturbing thing you know yeah he

was kind of handsome though he kept his mouth closed team all time piece no he got steve fix oh right we talked about that yeah yeah well let's get to uh btk yeah this is the last one hey guys dusting up here in montana again montana love montana So good.

Your boy's back in Vegas doing it Frank Sinatra style, January 5th through the 7th. Don't forget to get these, too. I hope people got these. Nick, I'm sending you an airdrop. Wait, so you're saying hunting, though, before we keep you from our dates? I don't mean to cut you off, man. You don't have dates, do you? No dates.

He's like, I'm going to be writing a script on the 25th. Check me out. Check me out, man. I'll be at the Starbucks. Fair facts. DM me. I'll be writing. I'll be that pretentious fuck in the back. Bro. With a beanie on and a notepad. Yeah, that's looking at you funny when you start to make noise.

Like, I'm fucking writing a script. And then get your golden hour holiday sweatshirt. Get your golden hour holiday sweatshirt. Oh, you a motto? Motto in it. Oh, you a motto? Crypto gel?

She's going to hate me for it. Never look better, though. That shirt never looked better. And are we going to discount them because it's New Year's Eve? I hope you bought them. Well, no, you can still get them. Holidays don't stop. Yeah. Holidays don't stop. Yeah.

Holiday don't stop. No, we're coming out with a real merch, though, 2023. It's going to be late. That guy's question, hunting. Listen, I would go if it was like Cam Haynes or Rogan invited me. Outside that, it just ain't for me. It's not for me. Deers are too cute.

I like their soft, wet noses. And I wouldn't go with Rogan because I would just feel so intimidated and be like, oh no, I have to like prove myself. Yeah, you know what I mean?

Oh no, I'd prove myself and I'd be like, yeah, let's fucking rip that thing's face off. Right, yeah.

I'll do it with a knife, bro. Yeah, but Rogan's gonna like get the blood in a cup and be like, this is what you have to do. And then just eat it right.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Rogan would be like, let's get in the jump of the cold tub. I'm like, yeah,

dude, let's get naked. I of the cold tub like yeah dude let's get naked i saw that instagram of his today he's in his cold tub yeah the cold tub stuff freaks me out dude i don't want to do this thing with cold tub love rogan his cold tub looked icy as shit good for him my boy todd fellman has a cold tub all good your boy has been doing cold tubs this isn't something new it's this fad I've been doing it for 15 years. Damn. 15. I don't have one at my house.

That's a professional athlete thing. I fill up the trash can. Yeah, we've been doing this for 20 years. I didn't call it. This is actually better than even the cryo chambers that they have now. Oh, shit. I've been close. Those cryo chambers are a complete scam.

They do nothing. It only colds the skin of the body. It doesn't get down to the core muscles and bones. Right. This is some real shit. What am I even looking at here? Yeah, it's a cold tub. And it's just got chunks of ice in it.

And where does someone go? Oh, I see. I was looking at it wrong. Okay, yeah, yeah. Wow. It even looks scary. Yeah. But they could design it a little more inviting.

But I've been to a couple of spas where they have a super hot one and a super cold one. Yes, yes, yes. That's the best for you. You're supposed to go in and out. Hot and cold, it flushes the system. The stuff's good. Nick, I'm not on Rogan's level.

This is what I do every morning. Rogan jumps in that fancy cold tub with all his millions of dollars like Scrooge McDuck. I'll show you what I do. This is the poor way. Compared to Rogan, I'm dirt poor. We all are. Yes, everybody is. Now, that is a bowl full of

ice oh okay okay okay not a fancy machine but anybody can do this at home well you just do like you wake up you got that sharp face all right here we go okay this is what I do daddy just oh poor man's cold tub cold man's cold plunge he's doing his body part yeah because my when I wake up I'm like oh my god my face looks cold plunge. You're just doing it for your face? Each body part at a time. Yeah, because when I wake up, I'm like, oh, my God, my face looks like a shark. Look how long you're doing it for. Yeah, dude. Look at that tortellini ear. Patrick Bateman. I do it four times.

Just Patrick Bateman, you know? Every morning. Poor man version. Four times? Look at that. And what does that do? It just makes your face less swollen because when you wake up, no matter who you are, even if you're Kim Kardashian, your face is a little swollen from sleeping.

Imagine Kim Kardashian's face right after she wakes up, though, for real. Those cold derma rollers that you put in the freezer, it's basically doing that to your whole face. Yep. Poor man's. That's the flea market version, though. The flea market Joe Rogan. Do you get furious the moment your face touches the ice just for a split second? I love it.

Okay. I love it. Good way. I need to get a cold tub, though. I really need to figure one out. That's it, kids. That's a golden hour. Is it a happy new year for everybody or what?

Do you guys want champagne? Yeah, let's get some champagne rolling. It's New Year's, dude. You look like a chunky nine-year-old bro. Champagne or you guys good?
