Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:28 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.
Starting point is 00:00:42 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
Starting point is 00:01:17 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.
Starting point is 00:01:49 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
Starting point is 00:02:28 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.
Starting point is 00:03:08 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.
Starting point is 00:03:31 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.
Starting point is 00:04:06 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.
Starting point is 00:04:32 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
Starting point is 00:05:08 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
Starting point is 00:05:24 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,
Starting point is 00:05:44 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.
Starting point is 00:06:16 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
Starting point is 00:06:50 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.
Starting point is 00:07:08 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?
Starting point is 00:07:21 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.
Starting point is 00:07:41 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.
Starting point is 00:07:57 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...
Starting point is 00:08:16 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
Starting point is 00:08:40 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.
Starting point is 00:09:21 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
Starting point is 00:09:40 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.
Starting point is 00:09:57 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.
Starting point is 00:10:24 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
Starting point is 00:11:18 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
Starting point is 00:11:40 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.
Starting point is 00:12:14 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.
Starting point is 00:12:47 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.
Starting point is 00:13:02 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
Starting point is 00:13:17 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.
Starting point is 00:13:33 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,
Starting point is 00:13:53 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.
Starting point is 00:14:09 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.
Starting point is 00:14:24 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.
Starting point is 00:14:58 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
Starting point is 00:15:39 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.
Starting point is 00:16:17 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
Starting point is 00:17:02 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
Starting point is 00:17:19 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,
Starting point is 00:17:53 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.
Starting point is 00:18:14 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.
Starting point is 00:18:23 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.
Starting point is 00:18:43 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
Starting point is 00:19:13 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.
Starting point is 00:19:46 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.
Starting point is 00:20:18 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.
Starting point is 00:20:58 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
Starting point is 00:21:39 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.
Starting point is 00:22:03 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
Starting point is 00:22:48 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
Starting point is 00:23:05 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
Starting point is 00:23:18 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?
Starting point is 00:24:07 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.
Starting point is 00:24:30 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
Starting point is 00:24:46 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?
Starting point is 00:25:17 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
Starting point is 00:25:51 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.
Starting point is 00:26:44 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.
Starting point is 00:27:29 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.
Starting point is 00:27:47 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?
Starting point is 00:28:10 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?
Starting point is 00:28:34 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?
Starting point is 00:29:06 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
Starting point is 00:29:22 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
Starting point is 00:29:58 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.
Starting point is 00:30:14 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?
Starting point is 00:30:46 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
Starting point is 00:31:20 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.
Starting point is 00:32:08 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.
Starting point is 00:32:35 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.
Starting point is 00:33:00 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.
Starting point is 00:33:31 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?
Starting point is 00:33:52 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.
Starting point is 00:34:10 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.
Starting point is 00:34:39 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
Starting point is 00:34:59 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
Starting point is 00:35:32 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
Starting point is 00:35:50 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.
Starting point is 00:36:06 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,
Starting point is 00:36:24 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
Starting point is 00:36:40 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
Starting point is 00:37:12 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
Starting point is 00:37:41 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.
Starting point is 00:38:12 Yeah. Yeah. So I could take these beans and make cold brew. You can take them and make an espresso.
