The Golden Hour - No Regrets | The Golden Hour PATREON #63 EXCERPT w/ Brendan Schaub, Erik Griffin & Chris D'Elia

Episode Date: June 11, 2025

The guys kick things off debating if they're still "shoe guys" and what having a "dad vibe" really means. They talk about impulse buying, comfort spending on things like first class flights and airport parking, and how their tastes have changed over the years. There's plenty of nostalgia as they break down their favorite rap eras, argue over Jay-Z albums, and discuss why some music just doesn't age well. They also get into wild performance art, like Marina Abramović's famous table piece and Lady Gaga's meat dress, and share what advice they'd give their younger selves. All that, plus classic jokes, music deep-dives, and much more. Get the full episode plus two extra episodes every month at https://patreon.com/thegoldenhourpodcastSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What you mean you never would you mean again? First of all it would be your voice. I know I know but it's funny. Yeah I don't know I just I'm wondering I would like to I don't know. Would you talk like I could you think of moments in your life like this is silly for me but I think I, would you talk, like I, can you think of moments in your life, like this is silly for me, but I think back to like,

when I was playing basketball in high school, I wish I had a time machine, cause I would go back just right before the games and be like, don't be a bitch today. You know what I mean? Oh really? Like you, I want you to, don't pass that ball, you know what I mean, or like I would just, Really? The kind you to just don't pass that ball. You know what I mean?

Or I would just. Really? The kind of things I would tell myself so I could have a better experience. Because I look back at my high school, and I was like, oh, man, I wish I would have done that. We all do that. So imagine if you could go back and tell yourself

what would be something that you could look back on, silly or even super important, that you would tell yourself to do something differently. Well, I definitely wouldn't fuck as much as much that's for sure I know that obviously that's a joke we've made here but you wouldn't listen. No I wouldn't. You wouldn't have listened. So that's you're right I wouldn't have. That's not once. Okay okay. So that's not that it's like it could be something something a specific time and action and act. You know, it's like, oh, don't do this, or hey man, you should have done this.

Something's been, because it can be like a life changing thing because we wouldn't have listened. We're too stubborn that way. I went to turn down $50 million to go to college. Oh right, yeah, yeah, turned it down. Imagine that guy. That guy would be like, you know, his AI would be like, come on man, you know we lying.

There ain't no college in Jacksonville. You lying. Dude, I think that, man, I often think about stuff that we talk about already, like the day before it's crazy how much that happens here. Yeah, I was thinking about today, like, you know, like regrets and stuff. I believe that you,

I think if you're any sort of real, I think that feeling some sort of regret in your life is generally good because I think that you should feel like, oh, I did that wrong. I wish I did it differently because it either hurt other people or I wasn't my best then.

However, that can be in conjunction with everything was worth it because I am I know who I am and I wouldn't relive my life totally different because I've got it I've got it beautifully right like that's that you can have both of that those things I yeah I feel you but that's like an existential like you know but to be like no regrets I'm you're a piece shit. You're a piece of shit. Chris 1000 agree with you. Nick! How do you do it so quick? He was on the forefront of that one. He was like, Oh, he's going to, he's going to do it. I think he's going to do it.

Nick is on fire. He's quick. Nick's, new studio, new Nick. Yeah. Music
