This is a HeadGum Original.
Previously on the HeadGum Podcast.
What kind of flip-flop is it on the other side?
Is it the thong style on the other side, or is it the slide style?
Glad you asked. There's two styles.
Slide and other.
Meaning?
The other one is sort of like, yeah, like I guess like a thong.
Okay.
So thong?
Yeah.
It's a thong, yeah.
So you can basically sort of, are you guys familiar with the Baldo?
What?
Oh my God, we got to talk about the Baldo.
Here we go.
Sorry, I should have brought this up at the beginning.
So embarrassed Brad.
Okay first of all
This is weirder. right let's start with the energy really fucking high let's keep that going for the whole episode. Totally, totally. Let's do it.
Really? Yeah.
This is going to be the hangriest episode of the
HeadGum Podcast in history. We all have not
eaten today. Is that fair to say? Yes.
I forgot to complete the group order.
The lunch.
We were like, where are the salads?
That's why we have a bevy of snacks
in the room. We're getting a peek are the salads? That's why we have a bevy of snacks in the room.
We're getting a peek into the New York office. The trials, tribulations, mishappenings, etc.
Does this happen often?
Is that fair to say?
No, because I'm not put in charge of the lunch order often.
Who normally does it?
Tell me it's not Marissa.
It's usually Marika.
It's not.
Yeah, it's usually me, I think. You've been doing it a lot recently. Honestly, it's not narissa it's usually marika it's not yeah it's usually me i think or so you've been
doing it a lot recently there's honestly it's pretty political let's let's move away from this
topic no let's actually that's the time to dive in when it's political what what are what's the
gossip like what's who gets mad at whomst when marika places the order what are her normal
follies and faults i don't do anything wrong placing the order? What are her normal follies and faults? I don't do anything wrong
placing the order. It's just really political.
The chosen restaurant.
Okay, and what do you guys normally want?
Dig?
No, they don't.
I would eat dig all the time.
Tacomba?
No, we haven't ordered Tacombi.
Ever.
That could be fun. Not to the office.
They have good tacos.
I used to do that in Williamsburg at the Williamsburg office.
I used to get that.
Well, there is one near Union Square, we should say.
Yeah.
It's near the Gramercy, I think, because I got Tacombi right before our show there two years ago,
which I want to emphasize two years ago.
Why didn't we do a show last year?
Why haven't we done one this year?
Let me take that again. Why didn't we do a show last year? Why haven't we done one this year? Let me take that again. Why didn't we do one
last year? Why didn't we do
one this year? This is a question
for Joel for some reason. We're working
on it. Are we?
Joel's running code on it.
No way. It's going to be an AI
event.
You don't actually even need to fly here, Jeff.
We're working on generating a virtual
clone of really every podcast
host, not just you.
In perpetuity?
Yeah.
Will I still get paid?
Royalties.
Are they good?
Pennies on the dollar.
That's fine.
At least they wouldn't have to show up for anything.
No, that weekend
where we did the live show, Emma and Joel,
were you guys working here yet? No.
It was such a good time.
It was like the best weekend of my life.
I think Marika had a bad time
because we did it on her birthday.
Yeah, it was on my birthday.
So that was rough.
Didn't make the choice of,
I didn't get to make the choice of the week
of the show that I was planning.
Did you feel celebrated?
In a way.
A lot of people ate the cookies that were brought for me.
Were brought for you?
I brought those for you.
Yeah, I said a lot of people ate them.
And you wanted, oh, you wanted the whole box?
Is that what you're saying?
I wanted the whole box,
but I didn't really get a chance to eat them.
You didn't even have one?
I had one, but it was like a box of 12 cookies.
But how many cookies did you really want?
We're starting to understand how Marika gets around her birthday, her anniversary.
You're a diva.
I just felt like I should have been able to at least
have like two. Two, that's what I was going to say.
A sample size, especially, because
these were from, I'm
going to look it up on Google Maps. I forget
where they were from. The place was bizarre.
Très bizarre.
Was it the one in Williamsburg?
Yeah, but I feel like there's a couple in Williamsburg.
It was the one on Wythe, I think.
I know where you're talking about.
I just don't remember the name.
It's next to Brooklyn.
By the way, it matters.
Chip City.
It matters.
Chip City, yeah.
Yeah, and I also love Chip City.
But this year, it's got to be Crumble.
Crumble sucks.
Do you guys listen to Blond Shell?
No. Never heard of that. Forget it.
She's an old buddy
of mine from college and she has this song called
Kiss City.
Yeah.
Okay, that was...
That wasn't a commensurate
reaction.
That wasn't fair to me.
Marika, we are looking, we should say, at the weekend of October.
It's not even a weekend, but we are looking to do a show on Monday, October 16th.
So the day after Amir's wedding?
Marty's birthday.
Oh, two days after. Wait, I didn't even realize that Amir's wedding is? Marty's birthday. Oh. Two days after.
Wait, I didn't even realize that Amir's wedding is on Marty's birthday.
I thought Marty's birthday was the 14th. Really?
I might have been wishing him well wrong.
A day late?
Yeah.
Let me see.
It doesn't matter, though.
He has a Porsche, right?
So it doesn't matter.
He sold it um that's
fair he didn't fit in it marty like like the company got some funding marty started being
like a big spender he bought a vintage porsche like ending in 1969 and then he pulled up one
day to the office i was like that's such a cool car and he was like yeah my head hits the roof i was like he outgrew it yeah exactly
right yeah too big for his britches yeah emma are you a kite are you a saebol are you a car guy
no i'm not a car guy joel i think being a car guy is like so lame.
How so?
Like, it's not a hobby to buy expensive things.
What constitutes a hobby?
Because it needs... Go ahead.
I don't, I mean, I'm not a car guy either.
But just to play devil's advocate yes but that this argument doesn't even lean towards that for car guys i think i feel like their whole
thing is like getting together and just driving is that not a hobby that's a hobby but i don't
think it's cool thing that car guys together to do something entirely solitary is like a very kind of
masculine.
That's,
that's true.
I was just talking to Joel saying that I met somebody who went to his high
school and I went out with like a vague new friend and his friends last
weekend.
And I was a little nervous.
I was like,
I don't know what your friends are like.
And then they were all like
sensitive boys and we actually got into shit we actually got into it we talked about our family
dynamics and like how our you know childhood shaped our nowadays and um that's something rare
medium rare maybe respond fast don't like stare at me in stunned silence
Marika looks like devastated
by the idea of me having an emotionally
intelligent conversation with her
medium rare kind of means like it happens
the perfect amount
that's true
that's true
um
Marika both hands on.
Both of them on.
I have my headphones on back on for that.
Susan Sarandon is my pick.
Let's just get through this.
Emma?
That's fun.
Oh, that's a good one.
Start with Joel.
I don't know.
Gaeta from Dave.
All right.
I'm going to get my way through every cast member.
Marika?
Ian McShane.
Oh, the hot French girl who's in passages
passages that's the last movie that i saw did when did you see it i saw it last week okay i saw it
i saw it like two days ago did you like it yeah i loved it it's so good the it was a great tip for
my entire theater to turn on the main character
at the same time
yeah totally
yeah she's mine
Adele something or other I don't know her name
nice
that's that segment we did it
we don't do it every week but I'm trying to do it as much
as we can every week so that it's like a runner
I have a point about male hobbies.
Why are you explaining this now?
Male hobbies, yeah.
I think every man should have like one hobby that no one else in their life understands.
What would yours be?
What's yours?
Yeah.
I think I'm still searching, but like my friend found a great one where he has like a storage unit upstate, which is also kind of where he like motorcycles.
So he's a murderer.
So that's cars.
That's the same thing with different amounts of wheels.
No, because the thing that he does is he just like he's just like, oh, I got to like check out like some stuff in my storage unit.
And you're like, what?
And he's just like gone for like 36 hours from the city
yeah he's a drug dealer
I was going second family
I went
that's where he stores his bodies
I just think it's cool that like he disappears
and like no one knows what he's doing
everything we've listed is arguably a hobby
yeah that's true
worse than car guy hobby
ing
you think it's cool that he disappears off the face of the earth for 36 Yeah, that's true. That's worse than car guy hobby-ing.
You think it's cool that he disappears off the face of the earth for 36 hours?
Like, that's not a hobby.
Well, I guess you could have a solitary hobby.
That's like gone girling as a hobby.
Yeah, I've never seen that,
but that sounds like a good hobby.
Me neither.
I do collect watches.
This is actually a swatch that I just got in the mail this morning.
So it's actually kind of cool.
That's the name of the brand.
You should get the James Bond swatch series.
So I don't know if you can see this on the Zoom,
but it shows the date, the day of the week.
So this isn't cool or impressive to me.
That's fine that it isn't to you,
but you just said that you think it's cool
when men have hobbies that other people don't understand.
That's true, but this isn't a hobby.
This is buying shit.
Yeah, no, it's collecting.
Collecting's not a hobby?
Collecting, like, all quarters from 50 states is cool.
That's the same thing.
This is old.
This is from the 70s.
Anyway, I just joined a watch collecting group in Los Angeles,
and I'm going to the first one tomorrow, the first event.
I wonder if you guys will talk about your feelings.
I'm really excited to hear about the people that were at that.
I'm really worried about the people that are at it.
Yeah.
I'm really like, like I said,
I'm trying to say yes
to more shit right now.
And I am fearful,
avoidant,
that these people
will avoid me
and vice versa.
Right.
There's a chance that
they'll actually be
more similar to you
than you could ever
possibly imagine.
That's almost
worst case scenario.
Right.
Anyway, Marika, you have a lot of hobbies.
I feel like there's...
Respond fast.
I feel like they're the normal definition of a hobby.
It's like going to the movies.
Like, I don't know.
Do you not feel like that? Like, it's not exciting. It's just like a thing don't know. Do you not feel like that?
Like, it's not exciting.
It's just like a thing that you do.
You've seen every Broadway show, it seems like.
I think that's novel.
I think, yeah, I would say that that is my hobby.
But then when I tell people that it's my hobby,
they're like, that's crazy and not a hobby.
I don't know.
What is this like weird, like fucking big brothering of what's a hobby and what's not?
I don't know.
Sort of a hobby.
That's your thing that no one else understands.
I just want to make people feel bad about the shit that they do on the side.
That makes me feel good.
On the side. Emma hobbies. Oh, okay sure i was gonna say i mean i wish i like
played a sport or like did an activity that was like more of a thing or like did crafting
that's like a hobby it's entirely in your hands you can take up a sport or a craft
what craft would you do what's i'll teach you
how to knit we could knit together i i don't know how to knit i would love to learn how to knit i
know how to crochet uh my i i really want to make rugs that's what i want to talk about that a lot
yeah you're always talking about that at At this point, just do it.
Yeah.
That's why we can't fucking order lunch.
Marika's just talking about making rugs.
Marika's browsing looms.
Emma, what are your hobbies or lack thereof?
My hobbies are
stuff that like with any skill would be more than a hobby like writing poetry or movies or whatever
that is that is the thing i feel like i want to make rugs partially so i could like sell them for
a lot of money rugs you're a capitalist have an art But it's like, what am I going to do with like
10 rugs?
You know? Like if I just keep making rugs.
You could sell them, but for a lot of money
is the part of the sentence that I have an issue with.
Or you gift them to your friends.
I've been looking for a rug for months.
It would be a great gift, but it'd be like
rugs are like
$600 plus.
I'm giving you a six hundred dollar handmade item
no sell them at cost but not just don't just don't be like nordic knots at cost is crazy i made a lot
of so i give a lot of like knitwear as gifts and i made a bunch of like baby onesies over the
pandemic and it was like be like two $200 in materials and then probably like $2,000
in my time.
But that's that cost. It has to be inclusive of labor
is what I meant.
But $200 is still an insane amount
of money. No, no, no. It would be the $2,200.
Okay, that's more reasonable.
For one baby onesie.
For one baby onesie. However much the rug cost
that you gift me,
inclusive of labor,
I will spend that amount of dollars on Chip City Chips to give to you on your birthday.
What?
Just give me cash.
All right.
I'm again also starting to see what Marika wants for her birthday.
Seems like cash in an envelope.
It's truly all I ever want.
And let me tell you,
hard thing to ask my parents
for. They do not want to do that.
I get that.
I'm like that too.
But no one does.
Emma, can you make those
onesies in any size?
Yeah, I can make a jeb-sized onesie
if that's what you're asking.
I'm a 44 regular.
I don't know if that is taken in suit size.
Hips, like.
No, like 22 to 23 inches across the chest and then just like, you know.
I don't need that much room in the grundle.
For now.
Marika yeah
you're shifting in your seats making everyone else
uncomfortable by proxy
I mean you have to point it out and we probably could have
gotten past it
I was trying to take off my
shoes so I could sit cross-legged
Emma inspired me
and I'm worried about Joel and Emma's comfort level
with you not having shoes on in the fucking studio.
I already don't have shoes on in the studio.
Okay.
Joel?
I'm not wearing underwear.
That's fine.
What are you guys most excited about in life right now?
I am stressed
because I'm flying to Red Rocks tomorrow.
To see?
Me and my friend have no plan
but we're going to see Mount Joy
I haven't done laundry in weeks
but
it should go well
are you okay?
yeah
no he's
he's floundering
Marika what are you most excited about?
I'm excited for you to come to New York.
Yeah, I am coming to New York August 28th.
Jeff, I'm sad. I'm not going to be here.
Nobody's going to be there.
Oh, do you want to come to Bruce Springsteen with me and my dad?
All of my friends are going to that on the 30th?
No, on like September 3rd or 2nd or something.
Never mind.
It's a Sunday.
If it wasn't with your dad, I would go.
I feel like you should have father-son time.
We have an extra ticket.
It would be sort of medium rare
for the three of us to spend some time.
I'm not comfortable around fathers.
So we don't have to get into that.
This is like a rule.
But that sounds really fun. so we don't have to get into that. Um,
but that sounds really fun.
I actually did almost get tickets to see Springsteen in LA and I'm,
I still might.
So I might save myself for that slash marriage.
I'll pencil you in.
Um,
Emma,
um,
it's Eden Gusher's bad tape.
Sorry.
Um, I am excited.
The week that I won't be here and that you will be here,
I'm going to be with my sisters and my cousins all on a trip.
In coastal Maine or?
Black Island.
I was in coastal Maine recently.
It's off of Rhode Island.
That's cool.
Newport?
No.
Don't just list places in the Northeast.
There's no way you're going south from here.
Because you'd have to get down to South Carolina
for there to be anywhere worth.
I'm not going south.
Right?
North Carolina is pretty good.
Nice.
What's up, Marika?
I said North Carolina is pretty good. Nice. What's up, Marika? I said North Carolina's pretty good.
Really?
Asheville?
Sure.
Sure?
I heard the most tragic,
horrendous story,
so bad I can't even say it
on the podcast,
that took place
in North Carolina recently.
We really need to take a break.
I'm so sorry.
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 exclusively at drinkag1.com slash what's that? Again, that's
drinkag1.com slash what's that?
Check it out.
And we're back.
Welcome to
we haven't done an actual game segment
in a minute. And we're snack.
What's that?
He said and we're snack
oh he got a pretzel
out of the container sorry I just
yeah
not to like derail everything but សូវបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបានបា� We've played this game before.
Deja vu.
All over again.
Can I finish? Go on. can i finish go on uh this is fictionary this was uh suggested by somebody in the youtube comments to play this
again i had forgotten we'd done it um and i don't know their name so they won't get any credit but
uh this is fictionary this is a Victorian-era parlor game
where everyone guesses the definition
of an obscure word in the parlor.
So do we need to go to the parlor?
Let's just treat this as the parlor.
Okay, I love that.
Do you guys get the rules of the game?
I'm going to say an obscure word,
and then we all take guesses at what it means.
And let's raise the stakes a little bit.
If you guys get kind of near the right word,
and I'm not going to do the Venmo thing.
I'm not going to do the cash.
We haven't done that in like a year.
It's played out.
I will answer one very personal question about myself people
always say oh jeff can dish it out but he can't take it you can ask me anything if you're close
enough to the definition but i'm only comfortable doing this because you're not going to get any of
these is that fair yeah that's fair all right naskin n N-A... What's that?
No, I was going to ask with an N or an M.
N-A-S-K-I-N.
It's like napkin, but with an S.
That is when, like, new skin grows over a scab.
So you think it's like a portmanteau of like nasty skin i was thinking nascent and skin oh very good
very good um that is uh colloquial colloquialism meaning like i'm not asking that
so can you use that in a sentence i'm naskin that oh good okay so it's really good it's a
conjunction yeah i think naskin is when you're like perturbing someone like annoying okay um i really like marika's yeah i really do start using
it because it's awesome oh thank you naskin means you're all wrong prison
prison yeah it's just a different word for prison what's the origin? I wasn't prepared for you to ask that.
I'm Googling it now.
I really wish you were Naskin that.
Very good.
It looks like it is not showing up on Google.
It's not a real word.
It really is not
tell Google to get in the parlor
Google's lacking in the parlor
okay dictionary.com
Jesus fucking Christ
it's not
showing origin
right
is it not English?
Not an English word?
No, it is.
I think it must just be, like, so old
that there's not a lot of literature on it.
Moving on.
Jobbery.
J-O-B-b-e-r-y
also everyone feel free to play along at home
and write your definitions of these words
in the comments of the YouTube video
one at a time as you're watching this
and then maybe next time we play this
or next week we'll read those on the pod
maybe that might not be a good idea Maybe next time we play this or next week we'll read those on the pod. Maybe.
Maybe.
That might not be a good idea.
I just thought of it now.
Jobbery.
J-O-B-B-E-R-Y.
I think it's like joyful.
Playful.
I think it's a location similar to like a haberdashery, where they give out jobs like a temp agency
but old timey.
Like you go in and they're like,
I need a job.
And they're like, here you go.
Like a depression era person
standing out of a factory
and like handing like slips to people.
You're so good at this game.
I've said two of the most humorless things.
Wait, what is a haberdash?
It's a place where they sell hats.
Is a haberdash a hat?
I don't know.
I don't think so.
I don't think so.
Okay.
Jeff, it feels like you would know.
I take offense to that.
A jobbery is like that feeling when something's gone a little too soon
wow whoa all wrong it's the conduct of public business for private gain i mean
you think any of those three were close
you said it was a haberdashery
I said it was
a business where you get jobs
fine fine
not hats
ask me anything
I don't want to
you don't want to know anything about me
I don't take joy in asking extremely
personal questions about people see I don't want to know anything about me. I don't take joy in asking extremely personal questions
about people.
See, I don't get that.
Do you want to phone a friend or phone a fiend?
Sure.
Joel, do you want to ask
a personal question?
When did you
last feel my definition
of jobbery?
And I already
forgot your definition. Can you remind me?
When something's gone
just a little bit too soon.
Oh.
See, my
instinct is to make a joke because
I want to make it good for the podcast,
but that's not what I said I would do.
My friend Corey, who's on the show on the All About Dairy,
there's something about dairy.
Oh yeah, that's the guy who threatened me or something.
He is in New York, by the way,
and he is going to beat the shit out of you.
He's been searching for you.
No, he moved to New York.
I went to Kentucky for a job,
and then when I was there, he moved to New York.
And I got back, and I was just like, where the hell is Corey?
And that made me sad.
Also, I was supposed to get back the day of his going away party,
and then they extended me, and so I didn't even get to say goodbye.
That's kind of a flex, but I'm sorry to hear that.
The flex is that I have
no friends in LA.
But the job
the jobbery people in Kentucky fucking
love you.
Bye, Jeff. I wonder what he ordered.
I mean, if he can get food
in the podcast, so can we.
Sure. We could if you guys
want it. It's a crazy looking chair.
I like it
I do too
What do you think about like outlets that are
Like really high up
I don't need that
I don't like it
Sorry
What'd you get
I got a new AC unit because the old one broke
And it's fucking scorching here.
Moving on.
Trover.
T-R-O-V-E-R.
This one's stumping, you guys.
It's Trover.
Can you give us
what type... Can you give us if it's like a noun or an adjective or it is
it's a great question it's a noun i think so stressed by that question because i'm like i'm
gonna have to remember what a noun and an adjective is i couldn't think of what those are like what
that grouping of things is called.
It's a person, place, or a thing.
No, no, no.
Like a noun, adjective, verb, et cetera.
Like what those are.
Oh.
Part of speech.
Thank you.
Trover's a noun?
A terrestrial
rover like the
one sent to Mars
interesting I think it's
like low lying
shrubs
in a forest on a
hill it's really good okay
we made love on the trover
yeah on the shrubs
yeah We made love on the trover Yeah On the shrubs Yeah
Trover
Trover
I think it's a
A kind of trophy
Okay
It's actually legal action brought to recover goods from the wrongful owner.
Yeg.
Yielding the same pleasure as having.
Egg with a Y.
The egg.
Y.
Exactly.
Yeg.
This is a hard one, honestly.
Jeg!
You do the part of speech.
Noun!
Noun!
It's a hobby that was popular in 1850s Germany.
Interesting.
Wherein you put an egg on a spoon and then bite with it in your mouth.
Okay.
Sorry, what time?
You said 1850s?
Yeah.
Okay.
Marika?
I think it is a type of singing that's very guttural
and often with a very phlegmy situation in your throat.
Emma?
I think it's like some sort of club.
Okay.
Honestly, I'm going to give it to Joel.
It's a burglar of safes,
but it first appeared in print in Europe in 1873, so I'll give it to Joel. It's a burglar of safes, but it first appeared in print in
Europe in 1873.
So I'll give it to you for the timing of it all.
And I do think that safe cracking
is kind of a hobby.
That is a hobby. Yeah.
Have at it.
I don't want to ask you any more
personal questions. So these stakes
aren't high enough. You guys don't want to get the definition
right because nobody wants to know anything about me.
You don't want to share.
You're so explicit about not wanting to share.
I just shared. I just shared a very
earnest thing.
Yeah, but it wasn't like
salacious. Interesting.
Yeah, it wasn't
interesting. Alright, so
what would raise the stakes? What would you want
the prize to be
for being close i think you should have to make me a rug there's that's so mismatched
i i even have to learn a new trade you would improve yourself barely barely i think that you i think you should make him like a t-shirt i know these are way too these
are really darn honestly i think jeff i think you could make like homemade t-shirts a thing for you
maybe here's like the ones where you just write in a black sharpie on a white t-shirt? Like you bring this back.
Maybe.
That's not good for this episode.
I'm trying to put together a good episode and something oral.
Sure.
Gusly.
All right, no.
Sing me your favorite Springsteen song for 15 seconds.
Please no.
I was going to say sing a song though.
Trick of a new freedom.
And actually, actually, no, this is what it is.
Every time someone gets one right, you need to do that same task.
And when we collectively get five right, you have to go to Springsteen with me and my dad.
Listen, there's six more so you have to get three three out of six okay and by the way i'm the judge so i'm just not going to give you
three guzzly g-u-s-l-I It's an app where they deliver gas to you
Guzzly just IPO'd
I think it's a descriptor of like
When you have really
Like ruffly appendages on, like, a dress or outfit.
Okay.
Emma?
It's like a very, like, overwhelming bosom.
That's what I think it is.
Before there were mommy milkers, there was guzzly.
The correct definition is actually Russian zither
Oh that's cool
What's zither?
It's a musical instrument
Zither
Okay don't yell at me
No that's the next word
It's a musical instrument
Fuck
So I have to sing another Springsteen song?
Uh no sing
A Sondheim song that's not
What Would You Do on a Saturday Night.
I can't.
Did Sondheim do...
He didn't...
No, that's Andrew Lloyd Webber.
What else did Sondheim do?
Sing Sorry Grateful.
Devastating.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Sing what?
Sorry Grateful.
Sing an Andrew Lloyd Webber song, then.
sing um an androlaid weber song then memory all alone in the dark
those weren't the right words you're close whatever i did think you started with mammary though though. You did think what? I didn't like.
I said I thought you started with mammary instead of memory.
I do always do that.
Start with the mammaries?
Well, in my head when I sing that song sometimes,
which kind of happens often. It's memories.
Because I'm thinking of, never mind.
You're thinking of guzzlies.
I'm thinking of guzzlies, exactly right.
Vaccy?
Vaccy.
Vaccy.
Spelling?
Sticky.
V-A-C-K-Y.
It's like when someone doesn't pay their taxes.
Oh no, he's left!
Eureka?
I think it's when a business doesn't pay their taxes
and have to evacuate the building.
Emma?
Sticky.
Sticky.
Both Joel and Marika were almost exactly right.
It's just an evacuee,
which is such an irresponsible way
of referring to someone who had to flee a life-threatening situation.
Oh, they back eat.
It's also too close to like vacay.
There's a bunch of backies trying to vacay.
All right.
Another song I have to sing, I guess.
Playboy Cardi song.
I don't know any of his songs
a Britney Spears song
um
sing Lucky
stronger than yesterday
my way
I love that song
Jark
J-A-R-K
Let's fucking speed this up
Let's speed it up
It's cause you guys are taking pregnant pauses
It's supposed to be like first thought best thought
Jark
It's a fucking
Jumpy shark.
You say Jimmy shark?
Like shark sprinkles?
I said a jumpy shark.
Like a shark that jumps out of the ocean like a dolphin.
Alright. Jark.
It's like when a dog's teeth get really overgrown and scary.
Okay. It's like a joke, but if get really overgrown and scary. Okay.
It's like a joke, but if you're Australian and you don't know how to talk right.
That's pretty good.
No, it's a seal or insignia on a counterfeit document.
Whoa.
Gid.
G-I-D.
Gid.
Get, but if you're from the South.
What'd you say?
I said laugh.
Okay.
I said like get, like a command like get, but if you're from the south.
To move swiftly, verb.
It's brain disease.
It's a brain disease suffered by sheep.
Ode.
O-D. Oh. Ode. O.D.
Um.
Let's go with.
A short way of saying odometer.
Uh, A tornado.
A stand-up guy.
It's actually a mild oath.
So it's something you're not sure if you're going to keep?
Yeah, there shouldn't be a word for that.
And if there is going to be a word for that, why is it owed? Short and sweet, in and out.
That was all we had.
Do you guys have any other points to make?
Anything else you want to say?
We can wax for a bit and then go to plugs
or we can go to plugs and see what happens.
I don't have any closing thoughts.
I can't believe you thought zither was a weird
word. I don't think
if you weren't on this episode, no one would have
known what that was.
I believe.
I believe this.
That's what he says in Oppenheimer.
That was good, right?
That was good.
If I want to get Marika, I just need to reference more movies.
No, it was honestly like the fact that Emma referenced something in Oppenheimer
after seeing it with us, after not wanting to see it with us
because she didn't know what it was.
It was the whole backstory of it.
Got it.
So I have no chance.
Got it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was a long runway up to making money.
All right. Plugs. What do you guys have going on?
Let's fucking
let's get out of here.
Joel?
