This is a HeadGum Original.
Previously on the HeadGum Podcast.
We're talking about James Bond, dude.
We're talking about a freaking nerd convention.
No we're not. We're talking about a high budget sequel to Austin Powers that you're just going to call James Bond.
You're saying that Ralph Fiennes is gone. Q is gone.
You're still Mike Myers. You're saying mini me is in there.
You're saying Dr. Whatever his name is in there.
Dr. Evil.
Yeah.
You don't even know who Dr. Evil is.
And it's not going to be exactly the same.
There's going to be differences.
I mean, once like, have you read the script or like,
you haven't even written it.
You come up, you came up with it eight minutes ago.
I've read the script.
Exactly.
But you're saying all these things for sure
about how the movie's going to be like,
yeah, I actually think Ray Fiennes is going to be in the movie
and he is going to be playing Dr. Evil. the remix
whoa
right yeah
what was that? Nothing.
Damn!
Friday, September 16th.
Right?
Fall is not... Today's the 16th, but people are listening to it on the 23rd.
So don't instantly take...
Yeah.
And I'm full of autumn cheer.
Nice.
Make your key alert.
If you're trying to get into that fall feeling,
which is sort of like that Friday feeling,
but for all of autumn,
you have to like do it first. You're not going to just
feel the cheer. You have to start wearing orange. You have to start wearing earth tones. You have
to start going into leaves. You have to start picking apples from trees. That's what's gonna make you feel autumnal it's not the other way around and if you feel like it
is then i genuinely feel sorry for you uh yeah i think it's the other way around really yeah you
sort of have to wait for the weather to get a little crisp you can't just wear a sweater if
it's still 94 degrees out and as for the leaves, if they haven't started turning here in LA,
then you can't just force that either.
Jeff is going out and, dare I say,
kind of painting the roses red style to the evergreen forest.
Stop it.
Stop the audio.
That one lasts too long.
Everybody talks about painting the town red,
but what about painting the trees
red?
I think you
put the emphasis on the wrong word.
That's what I just read.
But I made an Alice in Wonderland reference.
You did, yeah.
Alice in Wonderland's pretty awesome to me.
Scared me as a child.
Because you were worried about falling in a hole?
Maybe.
No, I think it was just like the red queen not super
down with the like scary forest vibes i also remember being scared of the caterpillar yeah
or like the cheshire cat like the eyes yeah but just so we're all on the same page, we're talking about walking cards.
I don't understand that. Oh!
When I was in France, the Paris Disneyland has an Alice in Wonderland maze.
Okay.
And it wasn't scary, but they did have one point where the cards were pretending to try and chop you.
They also had a raffle, right?
Meaning?
I thought Disneyland Paris
is known for their sort of sweepstakes.
Yeah.
Let's play that train noise.
Choo-choo. Full steam ahead.
That's the monorail.
Do you guys have any fun weekend flans sort of a spanish custard uh i was invited and then uninvited from a pool party how were you uninvited from a pool party
and whose party was it uh it's one of avital's friends and she's like you should come and i'm
like cool and then she's like it's actually a girls only thing
Which is also
kind of nice it's fun too
because then I can just sort of
have an Amir day
I'd love that for you
What is an Amir day?
So I'll just like
stay at home and watch
college football or whatever
Yeah Do you like college football or whatever.
Yeah.
Yeah, or whatever.
Do you like college football?
Not really, but at the same time, I don't like anything else.
You like basketball.
Yeah, it's not on yet. So I'll turn on Clemson Georgia Tech or some shit,
some really early game that doesn't really have a lot of stakes,
and i'll
put like 12 on it just to feel something and then if it doesn't hit all of a sudden i feel
like like shit yeah a game that i barely cared about is now bumming me out
so you are basically in a mirror day is just gambling on sports that you don't like.
Close.
It's gambling on sports that I do like.
And are you happy?
No.
And I'm either pissed that it lost or fine that it hit.
So you don't even get happy if you win the bet.
I just avoid the noid and in terms
of like i feel like most people and this is a hot take i think most people watch college football to
have something to talk about to other people yeah is there anyone that would friends in my life
i mean i was sort of talking your ear off about SC last week
but I guess
you're not a fan
you sent me a screenshot
and Marika by the way
of just the fact that USC played Rice
that's not talking my ear off
that's a screenshot
and they won
congrats to them.
Yes, because rice is bad.
Exactly.
Now we're talking about it.
I guess.
Marika, you know how drum kits will be
miked individually by drum?
Yes.
I'd like to mike you.
Meaning?
Meaning?
Yes.
Like my eyes? Your Mike, my eyes.
Like your nose flaring.
Yeah.
Like, let's hear every blink.
Let's feel every sneeze in Dolby Atmos.
Seven, actually 9.1 surround sound.
Well, that's scary.
It's a lot of pressure.
That's true. Let's a lot of pressure. That's true.
Let's talk about the pit wall.
Jake was maybe supposed to be on this episode.
In hindsight, not really,
but I invited him twice and he didn't respond
the second time.
He's like 0 for 11 on your
most recent invites to this show,
we should say. I feel like it's been, what,
six months. There's no way he's adding another podcast.
It's been since GashCab, let's be honest.
Let's call a spade a spade.
Yeah, you did make
him sort of talk about...
Right.
Yeah, right.
Right.
Right.
You know, like, don't be casual
because you, honestly honestly you are a casual
sorry you wanted to talk about the pit wall yeah so this is an f1 podcast for casual fans if you
haven't heard the bish you might as well go uh listen to us dish about mick schumacher sort of
being what's the opposite of a prodigal son he's sort of just a son i guess yeah just a son yeah
yeah yeah yeah i barely was trying to think of a word but i can't prodigal nautical
i'm prodigiously nautical um no is that a line from a a rap that you already knew or did you just make it up now?
I made it up now.
I'm prodigiously nautical.
I'm prodigiously nautical.
I'm radical and my thought bubbles are exploding like oceans eroding.
That's an Eminem line.
And then it goes like, I got a U-Haul for
my balls and because I got
not because I'm tired
because what you're saying
is boring
I was really into it actually
me too no I thought it was good
actually yeah
yeah
listen to the pit wall we should do a
buckets pit wall. We should do a Buckets pit wall crossover.
A collab.
A collab of sorts.
I don't know what it would look like.
I think it's like what the driver equivalent is for basketball.
I probably, yeah.
The driver equivalent of Daniel Ricciardo is honestly probably Russell Westbrook
if we're going off performance.
But if we're going off personality, he's Richard Jefferson.
He's Ricky Rubio with a lisp.
And a tryst.
This means nothing to me.
If it's, well, Charles Leclerc is probably like...
Rudy Gobert, just in terms of words that rhyme.
um rudy gobert just in terms of words that rhyme no he's probably because he's really good and you really like him but he always kind of comes up
short so maybe jimmy butler yeah maybe jimmy butler he's a little less intense carlos signs
is like lovable and also good but not a champion oh interesting maybe like uh
lovable and good but not a champion yeah uh charles barkley
yeah no charles barkley's louder this guy's handsome and still
sorry are you guys doing a weekly podcast if there's well he's a champion what if you do
what if there's no race that weekend are you still doing a pod no but we're sort of getting
together and hashing it and when you guys talk about the group chat on the show is that a slack
channel or is that literally a iMessage thing it's an iMessage thing. It's an iMessage thing. The show's named after the iMessage that
was me, Jake, and
Pyle that we then added
Jeff and Casey to.
Oh, that's cool. Yeah.
So you're like, we should make this a podcast.
Mm-hmm. And it's interesting
that Casey has not only
the latest to the game
but also completely
like swerved into the idea of racing in terms of
him actually being yeah uh what is it called the rally car race or what are those uh go karts yeah
go kart yeah so he's like he just learned about it in arizona right yeah we like got him into F1 during the off-site.
But we also, I feel like we went go-karting in Arizona.
Did he win?
Multiple, no, Dane won.
But I feel like multiple people after that were like,
that was the best moment of my year, just go-karting.
And I'm inclined to almost agree.
It's funny, I went go-karting and i'm inclined to almost agree it's funny up there i went go-karting for billy's
bachelor party and i was so sick by the third go around that i i was driving and i felt so
nauseous i had to get out of the car he dm'd me and was like did amir go and i was like no
i got motion sick did you not feel that at all? No, not really. Interesting.
It really is a thrill.
I think I might do it on my birthday this year.
You should.
Yeah, I wish there was one slightly closer to here.
But Casey is posting his times, and he's beating Stranger.
Is he just a phenom at it?
How is he so much faster than the other go-karters?
He's just been going.
Well, yeah, I think.
so much faster than the other go-karters. I think he's just been going...
Well, yeah, I think...
After the
off-site, he got into
the F1 game.
That's true.
The video game and bought pedals
and stuff in a wheel
to play it.
I wonder if that helped
to train him into
thinking about the braking that you need for go-karting.
I see.
I see.
So there is some strategy involved there.
But also, I mean, I guess I can't.
I'm like the last person that should be making claims about California.
But like who's a professional carder in a Burbank go-karting place, right?
Yeah.
Maybe not professional, but the fact that you go,
it's like the people at a bowling alley,
like someone's going to be a lot better than me
just because they're constantly going.
But it was like his first or second time,
and he was dominating, it seems.
Yeah, maybe it was all kids.
Maybe it was like a kid's birthday party and Casey.
We'll never know.
He's creaming tweens.
And dreaming queens.
What's going on there, Jeff?
Oh, sorry.
I'm just making an espresso.
Yeah, because you were yawning a lot during that segment.
Not really a segment.
We're just waxing.
There's some segments coming up.
But you know what?
I figured it couldn't hurt to have a couple of bean juices.
I have something related to that.
After drinking coffee cold brew for like the last decade or so off and on, figure couldn't hurt to have a couple of juices i have a i have something related to that after
drinking coffee cold brew for like the last decade or so off and on i finally made my own i've only
bought either from a cafe or like a jug of cold brew from the store i've never made my own cold
brew i used to do that and then I lost my jar. Yeah.
So I bought a thing on Amazon.
I bought a thing on Amazon that makes it.
And then we have a podcast sponsor that sends ground beans.
So I'm like, okay, I'll get those beans for free.
I'll buy the thing that like makes cold brew.
And it's relatively simple. You just put the beans in the water and wait 24 hours.
But I haven't had it yet it's in
my refrigerator right now my one concern is that that sponsor doesn't send ground beans that
sponsor sends ground beef so are you just soaking lamb overnight or yeah i'm having cold stew and
it's been good so far it takes 24 hours it's tasted good no it's been good to me this is this is not this is the
last of the jarred one that i bought before the cold brew that i'm making so but i had no idea
like the cost of a like i didn't know anything about like the ratio of beans to water how much
money the beans cost versus the amount of cold brew i can make i'm not saving that much money
wow that looks pretty legit oh really yeah that's nice is that a breville it is a breville nice
we have one of those here i just made an espresso it's really good
the new york office has a breville yeah that's that new york. LA just has cold brew on tap. I'm like, let's get classy with this shit.
Let's get a rebel.
It's too hot to have a hot espresso in LA, isn't it?
Yeah.
That's true, but you can do iced.
Why are you posing for that?
He's finding his angles.
And my angles.
Kurt angles. Wait, Marikaika you're coming out to la
yeah yeah we have a live show wednesday september 22nd right so the day before this comes out
yeah marika by the time you listen to this marika will have come to la and maybe even left yeah it's true you leave on
when do you come and leave i come on wednesday leaving saturday oh that's good you get a friday
oh really in his extra room that's yeah um friday i might try to see the oklahoma tour with anya
interesting there's an oklahoma tour wait is that the one that you told me to see the Oklahoma tour with Anya. Interesting. There was an Oklahoma
tour. Wait, is that the one that you told me
to see in New York that I saw?
Did you see that? Yeah, it was
like in a round and there's only like four rows.
Yeah. So it's that but in LA.
I remember
having an issue with that plan. I can't remember what
it was. It was like weird multimedia
things going on, right? Yeah.
Lots of like sudden darkness yeah
the the camera the live camera during poor judd is dead i love it it's great a 10 minute ballet
that has like cowboy boots dropping from the ceiling yeah i'm like what did they do in the 30s
What did they do in the 30s?
Not that.
The Dream Ballet in Oklahoma was a really classic thing,
and a lot of people were upset that this didn't replicate the original choreography as much as it could have.
But change is good, guys.
Yeah.
And it's such an old...
It's like a literally 100-year-old play almost at this point.
It's pretty old, yeah.
So, like, the story feels antiquated.
But it's cool that they updated it.
Where are they doing it in LA?
Maybe the Omison?
I don't know.
Oh, wow.
That's a big theater.
Yeah.
I don't know. Oh, wow.
That's a big theater.
Yeah.
And I really wanted to see the tour,
so I'm happy that I managed to coincide with a date in LA.
Me too.
I'm happy for you.
We do have to take a break.
Of course.
You just talked for four minutes and made an espresso.
I could have made an espresso during the break.
Yeah.
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. 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.
If there's one product I had to recommend to elevate your health,
it's AG1.
That's why we partnered with them for so long.
So if you want to take ownership of your health,
start with AG1.
Try AG1 and get a free one-year supply of vitamin D3K2
and five free AG1 travel packs with your first purchase And we're back.
Guys, I wanted to talk about office gossip.
Who's fucking who?
I have no gossip really yeah really because i wondered if anything was happening with like english she's married oh i didn't mean that i meant like what's up with
like is she starting fights is she being like a little passive aggressive to like, I don't know, Johnny?
I hear Joel's a bit of a prick.
It seems like the New York office really gets along, hangs out outside the office.
Me too.
Yeah.
Not you too.
I get along.
I hang out outside the office.
Not with anybody from head to come um Joel Joel's great
Joel and I every week we've had a calendar invite to watch high school musical the musical the
series with each other in the office but we've only done it once and now the season's over so
is that because the show is bad or because you guys your schedules just don't line up
uh because i usually watch it the day it comes out which is wednesday and by the time thursday
rolls around i'm like joel you gotta catch up. The show is, in my opinion, really actually good.
I applied to work on season three and it didn't work out.
I'm sorry.
What about season four?
Or whatever the next one's going to be, yeah.
Work on writing, acting?
Whatever.
I'll be a fucking CPA.
Nobody cares.
Just get me in the room where it happens um to be a writer's assistant that's um
last thing
actually i want to get to all of this head gum live 2022 is it happening or not no damn it spring hopefully
something early 2023 yeah i think we ran out of time to plan a big show in the fall so we're
gonna do it when it warms up again yeah why don't why did we stop doing the uh anniversary parties
uh i think covid slowed that down.
The first one was never even planned
and then the second one was planned
and then we had to cancel.
I remember that.
This one sort of came and went
and we hadn't done it for three years.
And we had just had our off-site.
I don't know.
Next year will be eight. We should do something for that. But also, we don't know Next year will be 8
We should do something for that
But also like we wouldn't have to
We don't have to fly everyone out
We could do like satellite parties
Just to make it cheaper
But still do it which would be fun
Yeah
Anyway
What office gossip
Okay
Your timing sucks
so Did you guys see the photo that I framed for the studio?
Yeah, I saw that.
Me and Jake.
World's best dads.
Doesn't that say it all?
Welcome to Green Flag Workplace.
Right?
BuzzFeed released an article
that was just a listicle, really,
of people sharing the green flags from job interviews
that tell you it's a good place to work.
I wanted to list all of these
and see if HeadGum passes the same tests.
Right?
All right.
So who's the arbiter?
Because, like, I could say green.
Oh, my God.
Of course.
This also doesn't fully work,
because, Marika, you've worked here since what 2016
2017 16 yeah one when they ask you questions about yourself what are your interests hobbies
what are you proud of personally to show that what kind of person you are rather than how much
of a workhorse you'll be do you feel that that at HeadGum? Do people care about you
personally? For the interview only or just
like company culture?
I think the interview.
What is
the point of this?
This is like the most
realistic
segment you've
ever come up with and it's still bad to do
yeah we ask people both amir and i have been in a ton of interviews we ask people what their
interests are well because that shows that you're interested in learning about them you know and
like as a person who actually has a work-life
balance green flag then green flag yeah um
if asking people what they do for self-care or like how
they you know create that work-life balance i have yes i'm here uh i don't know if i have
i'll ask about hobbies but not specifically self-care.
Work-life balance, yeah.
Talking more about just business.
Or sorry, talking more than just about business.
So different.
So the exact opposite.
So like basically if it turns into a conversation
right and so that is gonna feel good in the room or on the zoom do you guys make it more of a
conversation the thing about this is that you've never been in one of the interview processes.
So, like, you don't know what we actually do.
I overheard Allie's job interview.
Oh, yeah, you did.
Yeah.
We have, like, a whole thang system.
We definitely have a whole system and
we try
to get
people to talk to as many
people at the company as possible
so we can all
get a sense of vibe
and interests and all that kind of stuff.
Yeah, one of the rounds of interviews
is more of a culture fit
versus how adept at the job you'll be.
When the person being interviewed
asks about the business,
you answer with genuine passion about the company.
I answer.
Do you?
Nobody asked me.
Yeah.
Marika, yeah.
Yeah.
Again, worked here since 2016.
They also feel very vague and bland.
I also don't know what we're answering.
Yeah, like which point of view do you want?
This feels like a clickbait link at the bottom of an ESPN article or something.
When you talk about the job, you think about it positively.
Not really.
But do you express excitement to someone about them maybe joining the team?
It's very similar.
All these are very similar.
Asked and answered.
When you are interviewing someone and you're like, oh, do you know Premiere?
And then before they can even answer,
you're like, it's okay if you don't.
We can teach you, but it'd be great if you did.
Right?
Again,
what's the question?
When you guys are in interviews,
do you
offer some room
to teach people shit? Instead just exactly know it okay yes of
course but there will be some things that we expect them to know yeah like if we're hiring
a video editor we expect them to know we can't be like we'll teach know how to edit.
Yeah.
Wow.
Not really. That's the most bland thing we've ever said.
When you're interviewing someone
do you ask them if they
listen to HeadGum podcasts?
Yes. We ask them if they
listen to podcasts and what theirs. Yes. We ask them if they listen to podcasts.
And what their favorite podcast is.
And I usually specify.
That they don't have to say.
Or list a HeadGum Podcast.
But if they do.
Listen.
Do you ever go like.
Well what do you think we could be doing better.
At.
No. No. better at uh no not in that situation uh good
one more right oh god would you say that head gum is good at retention
Would you say that HeadGum is good at retention?
Yeah.
I mean, we have over 30 employees.
Yeah, but like 20 of them started this year.
Yeah.
Even before that, I can't think of too many employees that left.
Handful.
Yeah. I feel like it's hard to okay
welcome to menage or six nikki edition
so i'm gonna read quotes and you have to attribute it to which nicky six or menage
okay who is nicky six uh he was in motley crew okay um marika's melting this is what you've done He tossed that salad like his name Romain
Nicki Minaj
My main camera is a Nikon D3
I kind of want to say Nicki Minaj
Amir was correct Marika was wrong, that was Nicki6 I want to say Nicki Minaj.
Amir was correct.
Marika was wrong.
That was Nicki Sixx.
I'm inspired by children.
It's got to be Nicki Sixx.
I don't think Minaj is inspired by kids.
I agree.
I've got my fingers in many pies,
and I'm excited about creating stuff and watching it blossom and bloom and harvest
and get on with the next thing.
Again, it doesn't feel like a notch.
You broke up.
I'll go six.
Same.
Correct.
There's nothing more beautiful than a smile that has struggled through tears.
Six.
That was Minaj.
Whoa.
Respect your haters.
They're the only ones who think you're better than them.
Nicki Minaj.
Yeah.
I feel like the glue to everything.
Minaj.
Six.
That was six.
Woo.
Nothing is worse than going home having not played a gig.
Having not had.
Six.
Minaj.
It was Minaj.
She said gig?
Yeah.
She's really into the gig economy.
Some girl asked me
for an autograph and I asked her why.
She said she admires me.
I said she should see us shrink.
Then she started crying and I started laughing.
Minaj.
I really hope Minaj.
Six.
That was supposed to take ten minutes.
That took three and a half.
Can you guys tell what this is?
What is? Fan?
Oh, no.
Oh, a hanger.
Is that a cord?
A hanger is correct.
Oh!
Let's play hanger or cord
yeah
that would have been
good if Jeff hadn't ruined it
that game was better than the two
Jeff came up with
also because I won
and that felt good how random would it be if i got this as a
tattoo see that's also funnier than anything jeff is like where it cuts off yeah it's like yeah
or like what if you got what if you showed up to work with prosthetic makeup that
looked like a hanger was
stuck through your face.
Oh that's funny or like behind my head
kind of like the Steve Martin
King Tut style arrow
but it's a hanger.
Even me like just fucking
farting out half-baked ideas
is funnier than what Jeff
has done.
He's kind of a cancer
to the show.
And at the end of the day,
you're just pushing a hanger
all around your face.
Yeah, exactly.
This would be the worst one to get
tattoo-wise.
It's kind of like a bad mustache.
Yeah.
Plus, yeah, I would go throw my forehead up
into where my hairline is.
This would be so random to get.
That's funny.
Sorry, let's play.
What was it, Jeff?
Green flag or nah,
where we look at different colors and decide
if they're
for lack of a better term
green
that's good
that's really funny actually
even that fake game
that got him
steamed
he's a steamed boy
slash bow.
How's that espresso with one ice cube in it?
Not cold or hot, just a lukewarm drip.
Y'all can't get to me anymore.
Why?
Because I don't respect me. You don't respect you or you don't respect us him me
so i feel like we did get to you nothing you say can make me feel any type of way
because i've already thought the best of me
and I've thought
the worst of the
me
huh
uh four ice cubes
ass
is it cold
maybe
they melted immediately that's like a a warm americano and then how does
that compare to the like coffee beans that i could get to make cold brew is it the same or is it more
expensive because it's espresso beans you want to any Any coffee bean. Any coffee bean can be made into an espresso.
Yeah.
So it's not a different bean.
It's just a different way of preparing the coffee beans.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I could take these beans and make cold brew.
You can take them and make an espresso.
I used to make cold brew out of these beans,
and now I used to make espresso.
And how much does it cost per bag?
$20. Yeah. $20 for like eight espressos, maybe more. make espresso. How much does it cost per bag? 20 bucks.
Yeah. 20 bucks for like
eight espressos, maybe more.
Probably more. Well, also, Amir, aren't you
making like cold brew concentrate
when you do this? Yeah, you're supposed to mix it with
milk and water, yeah.
You're not supposed to mix it with milk.
Or water.
Just water, for sure.
The bag can make basically three like of the pitchers
and the pitchers like a quart which could last you know three to four drinks yeah it's definitely
cheaper than buying i mean intelligentsia's coffee's five dollars fifty cents and you have
to add like you have to add a tip oh that one is the most I was comparing it to like a jug of cold
brew I can buy it like Whole Foods
oh
yeah I started doing
yeah I started doing the
the jug situation
yeah the jug at Whole Foods
or like the jug at home the jug at
Whole Foods the Whole Foods or
any grocery store.
Or any, yeah.
It seems like it's like half and half.
Like make it at home is like $5 a quart and then it's like $10 a quart at Whole Foods.
And then like if you buy literally a cold brew every day, that's like $40.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Marika, I'm coming to New York in October, I think.
Do you know when yet?
Either the first or second weekend
Nice
Just one weekend?
Yeah
Seems like a
Quick trip for
Cross country travel no?
I mean I'll probably go in
On a Wednesday
And then leave on Sunday.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I would leave Monday.
Why?
Just so you can, like, not be stressed out on a Sunday.
Yeah.
Trying to cram it all in and get to JFK by, what, four?
Then maybe I'll leave on Monday, right? Well, at at that point you might as well do tuesday
how are you mad at us giving you travel advice
we're literally telling you to enjoy your trip more and you're pissed at us

Yeah.
It's the best brunch I've ever had.
Interesting.
It's so good.
It's just eggs?
I literally used to live on that street.
You get scrambled eggs and potatoes and it's the best you've ever had?
The best breakfast sandwich I've ever seen or had.
Or heard.
Where would you stay?
With Johnny and my friend AJ.
Oh, that's cool.
Couch crashing or they got a bed situation?
They got a spare bedroom.
Nice.
I mean, that's like $500 a night.
Do they live together?
Pricey.
Do they live together?
Yeah. Really? They do?
Since when? I didn't know that.
Since like a month and a half ago.
That's cute. Your two friends that met
through you are now living together.
Yeah, that's not the first time that's happened.
Really? I'm a matchmaker.
I'm a snatch
taker.
You've never
made me friends.
Taken a snatch.
What's that?
I said you've never made me friends.
I've tried.
What does that mean?
We've gone out together.
You've met my friends.
You could have been friends with them independently.
I guess.
Who would you match Marika up with roommate-wise of all of your friends?
Honestly, AJ.
He's very chill.
It's all hypothetical.
She's not even trying to move. now i'm getting actually upset yeah what
about george i feel like we can get along because we both like cooking stuff right yeah maybe george
who would you put with me i would probably pair you with like a you know
i'd love to hear it you clearly have someone in mind who would i live with probably someone
like i'm trying to think of who my most violent unhinged friend is just like on the off chance
they might be like the yin and yang because no i want you to die
so like highest chances of that happening maybe maybe, you know, my buddy Mason.
He has a panther.
He has a pension for anger.
We're freestyle rapping again.
I miss New York.

great time it was fun it was a movie wait jeff i'm hosting with you right yeah do we know what
that entails i have like my own set that i want to do and then i thought you and i could just mc
or something what about you're also hosting with Danny. Danny's probably going to want
his own five to ten minutes I think.
But we should hop on a call to talk
about it with him. Are we doing
together independently?
I need to plan
quite frankly. I can't just
show up on the day without
an agenda. I mean I
assumed. I believe there's a run of show
about that. There is?
I'd love to see that yeah um i mean the run of show is like just times like it's you danny jeff start the show, 7.30.
You inch.
Reading the agenda instead of going to the show.
George's car got egged last night.
This was two minutes ago.
He texted me and my roommate,
this won't super pertain to either of you because I'm the only one who parks on blank,
a different street near us, but my car got vandalized last night nothing crazy
shaving cream and eggs but flagging there are vandals afoot shaving cream vandals jesus oh my
god was it a bunch of cars next to him or not really the reason he parks on the street is because nobody parks on there
why because it's kind of out of the way and residential yeah but yeah i don't understand
