Yeah, how are your guys' days? I don't know. I just feel like a lot of pressure to answer at this point because of the music. I would say above average today.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Good day so far. Nothing. You heard it here first. Amir Shmuel Blumenfeld rocking the fucking tea at los angeles california all of it bleeped all of that including the color of my shirt cool boy must your guys faces be red why because i'm fucking back it feels like it feels like you are i don't know yet i wanted to hear what you guys had to say you're already backpedaling i don't know what's gonna happen you had on the show yeah you had the tone of someone who had that fuck you confidence but it seems like it's
Starting point is 00:01:52 a thin veneer you're actually a scared little boy aren't you and also like what is johnny gonna do you know help yeah i don't have any kind of leverage i'm not gonna help you really i'd like to maintain my job yeah yeah. Ideally, you reinstate me in the next five to ten minutes. Sure. And then we have a normal episode. Fine. Sure I am? That's the happiest I've ever seen him.
Starting point is 00:02:19 He wanted a life raft. We threw him a honey nut Cheerio. All right. life raft. We threw him a honey nut cheerio. Alright. I'm pretty happy about this to be honest. I can't personally deal with posting another audio book reading at 1230 AM
Starting point is 00:02:43 because it truly gave me nightmares yeah and what was that episode title fuck it yeah got your attention didn't it that was released this morning at 1 a.m. pacific and here you fucking are out of obligation
Starting point is 00:03:03 technically we agreed to this before that went up here are your options right what option we already said you're back oh so i'm playing celebration to be mad at us you can be a little happier doing it you guys are like begrudgingly allowing me back to host the show so it is a head gum podcast again yeah it always was you seemingly commandeered the feed or something i do have a couple requests demands really going forward okay i want complete creative autonomy you've already had that i want a fee for hosting the show every week you get paid to do that i want a microphone that i can keep at my house so if i have to do ads or record from home i can yeah where are you what are you doing right now okay Okay. And I want access to both studios depending on what city I'm in.
Starting point is 00:04:06 Yeah. If the schedule's open. You definitely have keys, key cards. Okay, then. So you're fine. My demands have been met. All your demands are met, yeah. So we're just going to move on like nothing happened for three weeks?
Starting point is 00:04:20 I mean, hopefully. What you wanted, yeah. Like, what else would you want? Yeah. I mean hopefully what you wanted yeah like what what else would you what do you want yeah um I don't know
Starting point is 00:04:33 I kind of got everything I wanted I guess I could ask for a raise I think you guys need me more than I need you you demanded
Starting point is 00:04:42 to get hired back and you said fuck it. You're pretty much at your wits end. I'm at my wits end? You haven't seen my wits end? All over the place, man. You gotta focus. I'm a traitor today. You're mad, you're happy.
Starting point is 00:04:58 The swings are too wild. Just focus. Johnny, you're a fashionista have you ever been to Mad Happy no I don't here we are again you're backpedaling the quality is already getting worse as we go on I think I've been there
Starting point is 00:05:16 you're mentioning something so specific but where is it I think there used to be one it's a global brand there used to be one in Williams used to be one in Williamsburg I think it closed though Jeff is mad happy
Starting point is 00:05:31 you're mad and then you're happy you keep bouncing back between those two I didn't have a great time the last three weeks because I thought I was unemployed also can we talk about so you did you got fired but you somehow snuck into our company offsite the very next week. I don't really understand how that happened, but you did suddenly show up at the Ondaz and we haven't really discussed the offsite and you're sneaking in.
Starting point is 00:06:03 I want to talk Ondes because ultimately that is on dawes johnny let's start with you what was your rosebud thorn of the headgum company off-site slash retreat two and a half so the rose the rose was arriving in very sunny arizona um i had the world at my fingertips it felt like and then the thorn, let's just get right to it, was getting that message from you saying that we are going to be rooming together at the Ondas. And this is a true thing. We did room together.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Everyone else got their own room. Including people who got hired the Monday before. Yeah, but like, are we really going to put a new hire in with like, you know, marty that seems to be like the worst possible situation i think i also i never brought this up with anyone during the thing did anyone else's rooms have overhead lights because mine did not and i it was like a struggle i had to like go around around and turn on a bunch of different lamps to get enough light in the bedroom area.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Major key alert. Every lighting designer knows that homes and bedrooms should never have overhead lighting. No. It is lamps. What's that? What? It is lamps.
Starting point is 00:07:22 What's that? It's going to take some time to heal from this, by the way. From what? You've shickened me on the other episode. On the company. I didn't stop working. None of us did, to be clear. Well, Johnny, you understand why Jeff didn't get his own room obviously and yeah you can sort of understand why you were the best sort of roommate for jeff like
Starting point is 00:07:53 who else could we have put with jeff that would have resulted in a better outcome than you i guess he could have no yeah i understand i completely understand. Yeah, I could have. I probably am the only person who could have tolerated him just because I'm a I'm a pacifist and I don't want to hurt anybody. But Jeff really did. Yeah, you wouldn't engage in fisticuffs. Did you guys get. Were you guys on the same schedule or were you like one of you asleep before the other awake before the other? We were pretty much on the same schedule so
Starting point is 00:08:25 anytime that's good i would wake up he would be right behind me that's good anything to say about it yeah can i speak yeah jeff what's that um can i speak oh yeah i mean you've been talking slash yelling this whole episode. You could definitely speak. Now you're aloof for some reason. When I show up to the show and like try to have a normal conversation, you guys also tear me apart. And then the listeners get angry because this isn't what they subscribe for.
Starting point is 00:09:05 I'm delivering what they want. So be a host be a better host how I don't know how we had a complete audit where we told you exactly what you needed to do to get better did you take any of the advice probably not also we asked you to speak on what conversation we were
Starting point is 00:09:24 talking about and you and in turn you're just yelling at us again what are we talking about the Andaz yeah Johnny said it's Thorne now we have to hear his Rose and Bud I already said the Rose
Starting point is 00:09:39 arriving in sunny Arizona and Bud I guess what I'm looking forward to I guess going back again. Yeah. Wait. Next year we're going back to the Ondas? Where else do we go? Anywhere else? Interesting. We could go to Reno. Marty will take that
Starting point is 00:09:56 into consideration. I liked the Ondas. I just like new experiences. Right. Reno would be fun. Have you ever been there? I love Reno. Been to the airport. Nice. My rose? Yes. Getting to
Starting point is 00:10:18 see all the people that I haven't met yet and that I work closely with like Katie and Anya and Casey that was really fun um my thorn the fact that my room didn't have any overhead lighting um and my bud would be at some point hopefully coming to LA.A. to meet Sam, who's the only person that I still have not met. Yeah, Sam couldn't release her shackles enough to go to Scottsdale. Nice.
Starting point is 00:10:56 That's a joke for nine people. Not even the whole company, just nine. Not even the whole company, just nine. No, what I was going to say before I was so rudely interrupted was... By who? Nobody interrupted you. You're going to keep being mean to me. I'm going to do work instead. That's a real threat, actually.
Starting point is 00:11:22 Don't do that, please. Some of the world's most respected interior designers will are on record saying uh you should never put over overhead lighting into uh home fine but when lamps the entire space is one room i have a problem with it and the lamps were low hanging the lamps were low hanging next to the bed. And you're right. But with better lamps, I don't think we'd be having a different conversation.
Starting point is 00:11:51 We wouldn't. A hundred percent. Jesus fucking Christ. Oh my God. You're so underqualified to talk about any of this. I did outline a normal episode. Should we just do it? I think it's going to take some- What about a mirror? Oh, great. And you. I can't fucking wait. I did outline a normal episode. Should we just do it?
Starting point is 00:12:06 I think it's going to take some... What about Amir? Oh, great. And you. I can't fucking wait. Amir, what's your rosebud thorn? The highlight was getting to hang out with everybody. IRL. Sharing a meal.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Learning how to golf. It was really fun. Discussing our shared visions for growing the company had you never golfed before? never golfed, I've done mini golf I've never done driving range real golf before you were like one of the top people on the leaderboard
Starting point is 00:12:36 yes thank you for bringing that up I was sort of a natural because of my proclivity for racket sports been playing a lot of tennis and that kind of translated to my golf game. But yeah, I consider myself somebody who's sort of primed to learn slash get to know golf on a more meaningful level.
Starting point is 00:12:55 I'd like to learn about the clubs, sort of survey the greens, and putting is always fun in mini golf, so that would be fun to sort of pair with my top golf ability. And the thorn the thorn worst part of the weekend um might have been the soup you loved the soup i didn't care for the soup. That was an 1130 AM 93 degrees out
Starting point is 00:13:27 middle of the summer in the desert mushroom bisque. It was a creamy parsnip soup. And it had an umami sort of flavor slash confusing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:43 I'm not even close to done how much more could you say I was gonna say I couldn't put my finger on the spices of it yeah you talked about that for a while on the day too yes exactly itac is like yeah it could have been oh that's like a little tangy right to me it struck it struck me as sort of
Starting point is 00:14:12 like a grain chowder i can i can vibe with that grain I would say the food the food in uh Arizona not my fave overall wow that's my hot my hot take I thought there was some good food what about that taco bell that we got the last night yeah the pizza that I got the last night casey and i got a pizza that was delicious we went to an outdoor club i think that was probably worth mentioning the type of place where ladies bring out your orders like ringside girls with whistles and fireworks for some reason type of place i'd never seen that yeah yeah so imagine i feel like we it wasn't every order it was just the champagne bottles i guess it was sort of a hooters meets sports bar vibe where they were showing a giant hockey game
Starting point is 00:15:23 sports on single to Maya. Yeah. I, uh, Oh, and well, I guess I feel bad if he's listening. Nevermind.
Starting point is 00:15:31 No, please let's throw people under the bus. Actually, he, he felt like he didn't know that you were still like making content. So I think it's fine to talk about cause he's not going to hear this. Some guy comes up to a mirror and says, uh, Oh yeah,
Starting point is 00:15:44 this is okay. I thought you were talking about somebody in our company yeah we could talk shit about strangers all we want so we'll never hear this comes up to amir and he's like trying to make amir place a bet on some game yeah he was a sports betting app uh he walked from table to table trying to get people to sign up for it but i don't know if you noticed this amir he was like like how much can i put you down for amir yeah he knew my name right off the bat and then afterwards he was like and what's your name by the way yeah and then i said it yeah maybe he maybe he said your name and you didn't react to it so that's why he was wrong yeah i did not hear the name like it was a joke and then you told him and he's like, no, like, I'm just kidding, bro.
Starting point is 00:16:27 Like, I know who you are. And then you were like, oh, cool. Yeah, it was a very awkward interaction. I liked that I wasn't the center of it. Well, he said he was. He said he was a fan of mine and Jake. And then I was like, oh, Jake's right there. And he's like, no, I'll talk to you guys later.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Like, did not care about to do the same bit to Jake whatsoever. He left and never came back. Yeah. Yeah, we did never see. Also, did he work for an app or did he just try to get you to gamble? Or did he just have a t-shirt and a promo code? Yeah. I saw other people from that place
Starting point is 00:16:55 around there. Johnny bought some lays. I got laid. Potato chips? There was a woman. Ah, that's good. I got laid there was a woman ah that's good I got a couple don't put down the other guests I purchased a few
Starting point is 00:17:13 lays from a woman walking around initially when she first came around I said no but I promised her I'd buy a few later and she did indeed come back around and i made good on my promise so yeah that's nice of you i got pretty drunk that night
Starting point is 00:17:37 and i irish goodbyed i was dead sober did you leave by yourself? I did. You just like sort of walked away because you were drunk? Yeah. I went to the bathroom and like the urinals were taken. So I sat down to pee and some guy who was right behind me tried to... You don't have to sit down in the stall, by the way. You can still stand up. I know, but I was like, the room was spinning.
Starting point is 00:18:05 And the guy behind me like to jokingly push through the door as I was going into the stall. And I was just like, nice. And then closed the door on him. And I was like, I got to get out of here. I hate this bar. And if I stay, I'm going to embarrass myself. So I went back to the Andaz.
Starting point is 00:18:22 How'd you get back? I lifted. Why do you ask questions about the worst part of stories? it's kind of hard to get a car there because it was like they closed down streets I'm wondering yeah I walked like two blocks and got a car that's the fucking answer
Starting point is 00:18:40 to your question and that's not good to hear nobody's entertained are you not entertained? no I'm not you don't even have to ask all right so you get back to the on dots and who's there that's gonna be um casey america miria um anya eventually i don't know i went back to my room for a little bit just to drink some water and settle down. And then people were ordering food, so I met everybody around a fire. And it was Joel, Brad, Anya, Johnny, Adam, and Berkman. And you were wasted at this point? Or you were saying you were getting super drunk?
Starting point is 00:19:22 I was sobered up by then. Okay. Did you order food or just sort saying you were getting super drunk? I was sobered up by then. Okay. Did you order food or just sort of eat what other people ordered? I think he ate what other people ordered. I had one boneless chicken nugget and a Taco Bell
Starting point is 00:19:35 Doritos Locos. Who ordered that for themselves? Whose did you steal from there? I ordered the Doritos Locos but because I took so long to sober up in our room by the time I got there it was soggy and cold
Starting point is 00:19:51 so I had one boneless chicken nugget that's great man yeah you know what I'm gonna take five minutes because I'm what I'm gonna take five minutes okay cause I'm so I'm feeling violent

Starting point is 00:21:00 and then we cut to an ad. Let's wrap it in the ad. I made this t-shirt. If we want to talk about that. Why won't you die? Guess not. That was to Amir. Late. I do want to hear.
Starting point is 00:21:22 I do want to hear. Talk. Talk. Now do want to hear. No, I want to hear. Now you want me to talk? Oh my God. I always wanted to. Let's take a break and then we'll hear about Marie's t-shirt. Yeah, let's take a break. God.
Starting point is 00:21:43 Guys, taking care of your health isn't always easy, right? But it should be simple. That's why for the last three years I've been taking AG1, just one scoop and a cup of water mixed around every day, no exceptions. And it helps me feel, you know, energized, focused, ready to take on the day, like I'm doing one powerfully healthy habit that's also powerfully simple. I know that AG1 gives my body high quality nutrition because every batch goes through a rigorous testing process so that you know it's safe.
Starting point is 00:22:13 And their ingredients are sourced for potency, absorption, and nutrient density, all of which is very important and you don't always get with other leading nutrition brands. I like to drink it first thing in the morning. I'll have a glass of water. I'll have my AG1 and then I'll have my coffee. And it gets me set off to take on the day and to be centered and to feel like I did at least one good thing for my health. And if you do that every day, it has compounding effects.

Starting point is 00:23:11 Oh my God. You can't act like that wasn't the clumsiest eight minutes in podcasting history. We can't just rebound from that. I'm no stranger to being a rebound. No, I form emotional connections with women who have just gotten out of long-term relationships and then uh i get my feelings hurt because of it rika the shirt let's yeah um so i made a shirt that let's see i don't know if you can see what
Starting point is 00:23:41 it says but oh yeah it's like white on pink, so it's hard to read. I first... It's all of the movies that have come out recently that are just titled with an animal. So it says first cow, pig, lamb, wolf, dog, and then men. That's good. I love that. It's also just a list of animals though. Not men. Yeah, and men, but that's good I love that it's also just a list of animals though not men but yeah and men but that's an animal
Starting point is 00:24:08 and also first cow that's cool it's the first one so it's first cow have you seen men I haven't seen men yet comes out this week or it's out right now and honestly I've only seen first cow pig and dog because uh lamb
Starting point is 00:24:33 i think is too scary for me i'll watch wolf eventually maybe it's not it was very confusing that lamb movie yeah i just don't like the vibe of his little head and his little body. I love lambs, though. People must think it's like a Zodiac shirt or something like that. Yeah, but if they get it, then they know. They really get it, yeah. That's sort of your niche is really hyper-specific T-shirts where you love it.
Starting point is 00:25:08 But most people definitely have no idea yeah actually the sam unshackled shirt might be a good one for your next collection that would be great you just come up with that amir welcome to fish row v wade davis davis Wade Davis who's Wade Davis he was an MLB player Wade Davis what about Dean
Starting point is 00:25:36 Wade that would have been good too he was a Babe Ruth award winner and a member of the Royals 2015 World Series winning team. Listen, there's been a lot of dark legislation being discussed and passed or being teed up to pass. So I thought we could kind of lighten the mood a little bit by making our own Roe v. Wade and that's going to be Fish Roe v. Wade Davis
Starting point is 00:26:08 so we have to decide which is more important Fish Roe which is the basis for caviar and oftentimes on sushi or Wade Davis the former World Series champion which is more important? or Wade Davis, the former World Series champion. Which is more important?
Starting point is 00:26:29 Yeah. So that's the game? There's no rounds or anything? It's just a debate? It's mostly a debate. I mean, so roe, for those who don't know, is the fully ripe internal egg masses in the ovaries of a fish and also certain
Starting point is 00:26:48 marine animals like shrimp, urchins, etc. Do you guys like Roe? It kind of creeps me out. I'm not a huge fan of it. Never had it.
Starting point is 00:26:56 Me neither. It doesn't seem like, it's those orange balls, you know, that sometimes come on sushi. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Not for me. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. I guess it's kind of balls you know that sometimes come on sushi yeah not for me oh okay yeah yeah i i guess it's kind of like caviar caviar is different though caviar is uh roe from a sturgeon yeah so it's not really that different so i said it's kind of like caviar and you said that's actually caviar is different it's roe from a sturgeon. Let's everyone keep calm. And other fish like the flathead gray mullet. So that's roe. Caviar is roe.
Starting point is 00:27:32 If we were in the studio I would be so terrible with you. This is why we shouldn't hire you back. I think the fish eggs are more important. Than Wade Davis yeah
Starting point is 00:27:46 than the other thing in the debate because the fish eggs like provide jobs for a lot of people forget jobs I mean talk about vitamin B12 these things are carrying grenades and that shit
Starting point is 00:28:03 yes no I'm not taking a side. I'm mediating. I'm just saying. You're not mediating by asking leading questions. I'm not a lawyer. Okay. Thank God. You know she's right.
Starting point is 00:28:29 What else do you want us to say is that the fucking consensus because i think wade davis is a 36 year old person all right with a huge career ahead of him outside of baseball you think he's a 36 year old person how is this episode worse than fuck it the audiobook of zona gale yeah he's gone really really good he also sort of had a meltdown the last time we did the show the 100th episode so it's sort of becoming a an ep i used to leave early now he's leaving early where'd you go? I've been congested for a year so what'd you do? I uh some snot came out again
Starting point is 00:29:12 thanks you should do nasal irrigation oh a netty yeah I need to do a netty now we have monkey pox going around oh my god my mom texted me yesterday we were talking about sure you can keep talking whatever man we have to move on but i want to hear the

What were you saying marika nothing oh sharing screens again okay can you see this yeah yeah there's a picture of something called ready ice and then there's like some picture to the right of it which is part of that picture or something. It's kind of glitching. Yeah. Yeah. Welcome to The Price of Ice. Yeah. Okay.
