Previously on the HeadGum Podcast.
I think he should have used I feel statements.
I respect what he's saying, but I think he should have said,
I feel like that's what you should do.
So I don't know if that's good communication
because I feel attacked,
and I'm starting to get a little nervous.
Every statement I say is I feel.
That's just what talking is.
That's why I say it.
There are seven kinds of leadership skills.
Can we all agree on that?
No.
What do you mean no?
We can't even agree on the basic premise
of the lunch and learn.
What are the seven as you know them?
And I'll tell you yes or no.
Strong and empowered coaching from me
Okay
Keeping employees engaged on the show or not
No, that's my got that down already falling apart there's five love You know, I would say that this really is a Headgum original.
You know, I feel like there's the intro bumper every week and it's like, this is Edgum, original or whatever the hell.
And it is homegrown because this show existed before Ali, Brad or Anya did.
Before we existed?
To me, existed to me.
You cut me off.
I'm very young. I'm very young.
We knew each other.
That's true.
Then before Furnet and K-Zero.
K-Zero.
K-K-K-K-K-Zero.
Coke Zero. Coke Zero.
Coke Zero Cans.
Amir, where were you coming from?
You were late by 17 minutes, we should say.
You weren't sure if this was confirmed.
It was 15.
Even though it was on the calendar.
I don't know what happened there.
But let's get to the bottom of it
before we get into any of the show.
No one really knows whether you can do the show or not because it's like
let's put an attentive hold on here.
Jeff and then you just don't do anything.
I know like this ever can go.
And then you text me 10 minutes before we were supposed to record.
Do you think Jen Pesaki is the kind of gal you want to have a sake with? Sake with, I was going to say, yeah.
Because no mention of the episode, whether actually recording it or not.
I quite like the official, Jen is.
Are we still doing an episode at three and then at 250?
You said yes.
So I have to get home.
Millennial or if I'm Gen Z, but I know that I want to have a Saki with Saki.
Gen.
And if that cancels everything out for you that I texted you, oh no, a little bit.
A fucking joke.
G-E-O-K-E.
Then how the hell are we going gonna schedule this going forward? I?
Guess I'll just continue scheduling up and we won't know for sure that an episode was recorded until we receive files from you
It was always recorded. It's just whether or not it was good enough to make it yeah off the cutting room floor on
Where were you last week?
As we were sort of talking about it,
this episode in Slack and you just didn't respond.
It's hard.
I said, where is Jeff?
And then nobody said anything until, yeah.
There's also the time that we recorded an episode
but you forgot to press record.
That was-
Until the file was delivered,
the episode didn't happen.
Super kosher of you.
Then at 2.56, we're supposed to record at three.
At 256, I say, is this happening or nah?
Because so far, this has all just been a tentative thing
waiting for you.
You have not replied.
That's not exactly fair.
It is absolutely correct.
And you send the Zoom link at 301.
Yes, but you weren't even home.
After we were supposed to record.
You weren't even home.
The other three got here 302!
Well, they were like ready to work just in case but they didn't know for sure either. Oh wow.
So you think because you're a majority owner that you don't have to be on call?
I thought this was a fucking co-op.
A co-ed co-op, by the way.
I think none of us should be on call.
Really?
Unless you're like, yeah, we're doing this today,
or last week. But Anya's sort of like
my Wrangler, she's like, she's my North Star,
so if there is one on the calendar, I'll be there.
Mm-hmm.
Wasn't this one rescheduled last week, too?
Yes, so I responded last week.
See, your lines are catching up to you, Bluenfeld.
Really?
I'm reading timestamps.
I don't know when this became a fucking witch hunt or if it's a French hunt.
I think it's when you said, before we get started, can we talk about how you were 17
minutes late?
I wasn't.
It was just 17 minutes after 3 when you were talking.
We had already started the episode.
That's
not quite fair to me the way that you came after me because I have a lot prepared.
I brought the joy you can see in my shit-eating grin.
Where were you last week?
I was taking a mental health month.
Where? I was taking a mental health month. Last week? I don't want to say because then Brad's going to be like, why didn't you reach out to me
when you were in town?
Oh, Portland.
You were not.
There's no way.
Someone said you were on Long Island.
Yeah, I was in Long Island.
And Portland?
Portland of the East.
There is a Portland of the East.
It's called Portland.
Yeah, yeah, there's Portland.
What?
You know, Marty told me this story that Portland, Oregon, and the East, and the East, and the
East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East,
and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and the East, and is a Portland of the East it's called Portland. Yeah. Yeah, there's what?
You know Marty told me this story that Portland, Oregon was either gonna be named Portland, Oregon or Boston, Oregon
And they flipped a coin
Who's there?
Lewis and Clark, I assume
That got Ali. That's the first laugh of the episode. It was a Sacajawea dollar.
How many minutes are we in?
We are six minutes fifty-four seconds, but I think that's only in recording time.
What's making it to the cutting edge floor from the cutting room floor is maybe forty seconds so far.
Let's wrap it up then.
Really?
So we are recording today.
JD Vance said that if you don't have kids you have no physical tie to the future of
America.
Pete Buttigieg responded by saying that when he was in Afghanistan, he felt like his tie to the country was pretty damn physical.
And I don't think that was his odd diesel to be the VP.
I think that was his odd diesel to be the next James.
Pete Buttigieg, who says no?
Kamala, first of all.
Who? Don't worry about it.
Allie, who do you got for Bond of the Week?
It's just power through.
It's a shitty segment, we all know, but let's just, you know.
Let's see. I think it should be...
Stanley Tucci.
That's pretty good.
I like that. I like that pick.
I'm gonna go John C. Reilly.
I think we should have a funny bond.
And so when you think funny actor,
your mind immediately goes to John C.
Step brothers.
I can't think of a single funny actor other than him.
So yeah.
What about Gabris?
Gabris was just invited to the White House
I saw on Instagram today.
Why?
I think cause he's like the champion of comedy to her. To her? I was just invited to the White House I saw on Instagram today.
I think because he's like the champion of comedy to her.
I thought Biden had already kicked the can.
COVID didn't get him in July?
He actually somehow is stronger than ever and more lucid, which is crazy.
Yeah. Well, that's because he took the room.
What's that?
I think it's not actually him. It's a guy. It's a body double with a mask.
You think there's a zipper down his neck?
Like Paul McCartney.
I was going to say, Saul McCartney.
Like Avril Lavigne.
Joe Rogan said he's taller in some videos.
Sorry. When you raised your hand there, you had a gun.
It did look like a toy pistol.
I thought it was pliers.
It's weirder than a gun.
Pliers.
That's Amir's only vice.
Anya, oh you already said John C.
Brad, did you go?
I did not.
Let's just look around the room here.
He's gonna pick himself.
Yeah, I guess I'm the only one in here.
Right, it didn't have to be in the room with you.
The room where it happened.
Nope.
It's me guys, I'm Bond!
I've never seen a movie. What does he do?
Movie shoots it. I've seen any movie shoots. Does he gamble? I'm good at that. I could do that
I got cards. Are you good at gambling or sure? Yeah, what do you want to bet?
six
You already are demonstrating that you don't know what a bet is. What do you want to bet?
Six?
I want to do six on red.
And you mean red the color on the roulette table or do you mean you're going to leave
the dealer on red when he says, I'm going to text the dealer six.
So and I'm going to say the name's Bond.
James Bond or Bond Hill?
Brad Brown.
Brad Brown.
It's me.
The name's Bond.
Brad Bond.
Brad Bar-ound.
Would not be good.
Brad Bond would be good, Anya.
Bond-ya.
Bond to zero isn't bad.
I can't believe we've never said that.
All right, let's fucking move on.
Enough with this fucking shit.
Guys, do you think that Jen Psaki is the kind of gal you'd want to have a sockie with?
So not my bond or are you just cutting it off before that?
So, wait until we move on after silence so that you could come back and make me look
like a jackass or?
Well, you sort of, you ended the back and make me look like a jackass or...
Well, you sort of, you ended the segment and you moved on to the next thing.
A joke I had already told people that you told me.
Texts I told.
It had to have fallen flat.
We have options now because I can cut out the first one
and then have it be a huge fucking hit the second time.
Or...
The reaction was going to be muted.
Because it's exactly what I had already told everybody.
You are going to be muted during this time.
I'm going to cut that out of the assembly edit and grace isn't going to have
anything to work with from the mix.
But I'm recording locally.
So even if you mute me, I'll still talk, but I'm recording globally because
there's basically, well, there's the input on zoom and I can turn that shit off
Mondo duplontis who
The greatest pole vaulter of all time
The one
He's the one he's the goat
So now we might is is he's a world record He's the one, he's the goat. He's only my height.
But he's a world record holder in the pole vault.
Is tucking legal?
He's not the guy with the dick.
He's the guy that actually won that event.
That's who I'm talking about, sorry.
Yeah, what are you talking about?
I know the other guy won the Olympics
in like a won the internet kind of way,
but I'm talking about the guy who actually won the Olympics,
the one who got the gold medal.
His hog was tucked just right.
Well, that's my question. Why don't they all tuck? Why wouldn't you tuck?
Like, swimmer's like shaved their whole body. His hog was too big. It's not too big to be tucked. I'm sure.
Yes, it is too big to tuck, but I'm talking about
Mondo Duplontis here.
And his Mondo Duplontis here. And his Mondo. All we need is some dough cakes. And his Mondo.
Ducaucas.
Michael Ducaucas here.
And you said he's.
Jeff doesn't get that reference.
He's only your height.
I know Ducaucas.
Right Amir, we should clarify that you're 4'3".
Wasn't he Gorzee Peepic?
He is my height in that.
4'3".
He jumped over six and a half meters
and I'm 21 feet tall.
But he's also my height height, five foot 11.
And you wouldn't know it because he can really pole vault
over great, great heights,
AKA world record breaking heights.
He's actually American too, people don't know that.
He pole vaults for Sweden, but he's technically American.
And you're proud that he's your height.
I'm proud that me and him, that a 5'11",
there's representation in the Olympics for people like me,
5'11", guys who are sort of American
and kind of from a different other country.
Speaking of 5'11", guys, Ali,
how tall do you think Josh Hartnett is
after seeing the movie Trout?
Trout? No.
Five-ten.
He's like 5'11", according to the internet. Is that crazy?
That was another 5'11".
I used to play that game a lot when I was a talent rep assistant.
We would kill hours guessing how tall people were and then looking it up.
After seeing Trout, they got a lot of short people
to be around him for that movie.
They made him look very tall.
No spoilers, but he looks really tall in that.
Well, who else is around him?
His daughter, who's like 13.
Danny DeVito's in it.
Yeah, it's a lot of shorties.
It would be better if he was.
You guys heard the song Short People by Randy Newman?
Yeah.
No. It's one of my favorite songs. I love Randy Newman. A by Randy Newman? Yeah. No.
It's one of my favorite songs.
I love Randy Newman.
A big Randy Newman fan, yeah.
Sorry.
One time I was at Zebulon.
Oh, wait.
Go on.
Zebulon?
I just want to say that.
I want to say.
Yeah, so basically you did jump to a 6.5 meters.
I once was on a synchronized swimming team
of just me and one other girl
at the Jewish Community Center in Marblehead, Massachusetts.
And we did-
We're trying to increase listenership.
And when you say sad shit like that, people tune out.
And we did our-
Call me Marblehead.
We did our big performance to You've Got a Friend in Me.
It was just the two of us.
That was cute.
Did you know that there used to be solo synchronized swimming at the Olympics?
So synchronize what?
Synchronizing your knees with what your brain is signaling?
Synchronize to the music.
I thought it was other people.
Yeah.
No, because now we're not talking about height, right?
No, let's talk about Zebulon.
Sure we are, man.
Let's talk about how you were at Zebulon
so people know you're cool.
Me, I'm willing to be vulnerable
and say that I was on a synchronized swimming team
of just me and one other Russian Jewish girl.
In marble head.
I went to a TGI Fridays in Burbing
for my 21st birthday.
And I got Marble state and head.
I drove down.
No way.
I took the five to the 134.
Got off at Olive.
And I went to the TGI Fridays.
And I got Marblehead for my 21st birthday at a TGI Fridays.
Is, like, Marblehead trout or, like, someone gave you head
with, like, marbles in their cheeks?
Someone with a really round head gave him the head.
Ha-ha-ha!
A bowling ball. A bowling ball gave you head.
In a way.
Okay, so what actually happened was,
you know how those three holes.
Yeah.
You got bowling for your 21st birthday.
Correct.
I thought he was about to pick up a bowling ball.
All right, let's say you're at an omakase dining experience, right?
The chef starts pouring soy on your fish as one wood table-side bakamole.
You want the fucker to relent on the soy. It's enough, chef.
Why not just say soy lent?
I'll tell you why.
Because you can't do that shit anymore because of the mule replacement shakes.
This is my stand up.
Tell us about, where were you, Nebulon?
Debulon.
Now somebody came up to me at the bar once, this was years ago, but she came up to me and I think she knew head gum stuff and she said hi, and she was like, you're taller than
I thought you would be.
And I was like, thanks.
And she was like, no, I meant like you have really short energy.
Hope she's still listening.
Probably not.
What were you doing in Long Island?
Sorry, I don't like talking about my personal life.
So I'm curious.
I was with my family celebrating my mom's birthday.
Seeing? I was dancing.
The thing I was seeing was my own calves kicking out, you know, like a Michael Jackson dance,
hitting people willy-nilly in the jaw and eyes.
And then I saw the curb approaching my face because they kicked me out of the joint.
My own calves like a Michael Jackson dance?
The way my brain works is better than you think it is.
I have to say.
Guys, why do you think everyone's been so cold to me recently?
Maybe because you don't answer slack messages and
confirm recordings
two minutes after they're supposed to happen.
It can't be just that, though.
I mean, that's one thing
of many. So let's hear the others.
What have you noticed? I haven't picked up on anything
new.
I think Shim has been giving me the cold shin.
I think Michelle hasn't quite given me the time of day.
I don't think, I don't think.
I don't think, I don't think.
Do you make an effort with Michelle?
I don't, I don't know if we've ever even spoken
to be honest, other than saying hi.
Yeah.
Michelle's really funny.
I think that you, I think the problem's you.
It's you.
Hi.
You're the problem.
It's you.
This is what I'm talking about.
With Shim.
You're the problem with Shim. If you're not doing bits with Shim, you're the problem with Shim. You're the problem with Shim.
If you're not doing bits with Shim, you're the problem.
You're not him.
I get that.
Let's talk about Brad's fads.
Ooh.
Brad, any trends as of late?
A lot of trends as of late in my personal life.
What are you experimenting or toying with?
Experimenting with Pokemon cards.
Collecting them.
Collecting them, opening the packs.
Getting that joy of pulling a card
that you really want and need
and you've been searching for.
Kind of filling the void in that way
by spending money on cardboard.
Yeah, cardboard, really.
I'm a card boy because I do be buying cardboard.
Uh-oh. Did we just leave?
It's time for Ally's tallies.
Ally, what's the score?
Ha ha!
We're in the lead by three compared to who's we we're here to help
Yeah, if we're doing golf scoring then we're definitely in the lead come on dude with the fucking above par thing
What above par thing no she's saying that like we're getting more points, but in golf you want the points to
be lower, so she's saying we're losing.
Oh, did I ever tell you about...
No, I'm saying we're winning because our numbers are lower than theirs.
Even worse.
What are their numbers?
200,000 a week?
A year?
A year?
Yeah, fucking...
Ours are 200,000 a year, man. No, we're not.
Well, Amiri needs to be here for the last thing
before the break, so I don't know what to do.
I'm fuckin' frown.
I have an idea that I came up with in college
for a sandwich shop.
Oh my God.
It's only on golf courses and it's called Subpar. That's really good.
And the whole thing is like the menu's not really that good.
What about Subparm?
So it's eggplant, chicken, trout, Parmesan.
I don't know.
Trout Parm, yeah, of course.
Seems like it'd have to be an underwater situation.
Let's round out the wax portion with Amir's beers.
Amir, when was the last time you had a fucking wine?
God, I don't know, years ago.
I don't really like alcohol.
Okay, I'll say it for free.
He's gone.
This show is sponsored by BetterHelp, right?
Now I have a lot of things that I simply can't let slip through to make sure that I'm doing
the self-care I need to make it through the weeks, right?
I mean for me it's taking a nice scalding bath.
It's also going on brisk walks every evening
as the sun sets over the canyon, right?
But when your schedule is packed with kids' activities,
big work projects, and more.
It's easy to let your priorities slip.
Even when we know what makes us happy, it's hard to make time for it.
But when you feel like you have no time for yourself, non-negotiables like therapy are
more important than ever.
I'm in therapy every single week and it's one of my self-care
staples, and I never let it slip. I always show up for the appointment. I always feel better after having had.
So if you're thinking of giving therapy a try, start with BetterHelp because it's entirely online, designed to be convenient,
flexible, and suited to your needs
Just fill out a brief questionnaire to get matched with a licensed therapist and switch therapists at any time for no additional charge
Never skip therapy day with better help visit better help comm slash
What's that today to get 10% off your first month again? That's better help
Help comm slash what's that? Thanks better help Jeff you asked me a couple hours ago to be on this sent off your first month. Now we're back. Ross. Okay, so you asked me to be on. That was great.
Because they were on a break.
No, that's good. I didn't want to bring up any grapes this time.
I was going to try to be really positive, but...
I didn't want to bring up any grapes, but I still got to the wine thing.
So let's just
Twice today correct I kind of had to move some things around in order to make it happen
But you didn't even come up with this like a little segment joke thing for my name
You said I had to do a few do it mirrors before we go to break, but you didn't do me
Hmm. What about um, Ali's tallies of years beers. I had one too
What about Brad's Brad's fads?
What about Anya's special?
K
What are you putting in bowls?
These days
What about zeros heroes
What about I to Anya and you say a tech problem you solved recently? Mmm. It's really good heroes.
I, Anya.
Really good.
It's all kind of like 80s,
all the best songs of the 80s in my opinion. Char grains, burnt rice, sear grates, have size.
Cut her rice grains, sear thus, sear thus.
Oh baby, now let's ruin all this rice.
Soy. Baby. this rice.
I've warmed oil to a boil.
I want to spoil rice.
I can't get a noir.
I make rice soyer and soyer. And when I get rice searing, I want burnt rice in a bowl.
Burnt rice in a bowl.
Oh baby, consistency of sand
helps to engorge my glands.
Burnt rice in a bowl is good to eat.
Burnt rice, burnt rice in a bowl
is something that's fine to have whenever
bags of rice are sprawling.
And my engorged glands are cleaving shorts.
There is something I can do.
I can oil slick a pan and cut rice grains.
Poison, I know it'll glob on the seedlings.
The char obtained will feed me
if you don't know how long to sear rice
oh I can tell ya bitch
until it's black as ice
char grains, brown rice, sear grains, have sides
consistency of sand
cut into rice grains, sear the, sear the.
And gorgeous my glands.
Garlic!
Mixed into risotto.
I was a John-do.
Sewing chefs.
Wait!
Have you had horchata?
Like sipping cocoa that's made of rice. Have you had horchata?
Like sipping cocoa that's made of rice?
And when right rice is scorching, I want singed grits in a sack to go.
Singed grits, singed grits is nice to have.
Makes a meal okay.
It's such a rush.
Helps to relieve your glands, which is fine to do. Cauterize.
Grain sear thus, it's popular. Everyone sears their grits and their rice. Well, it's fine to eat,
It's fine to eat and it's so good to have baby Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o Rice is better, Bert! Open up and you will learn! Ruin, ancient grains, I can't wait for them to desecrate!
I can't wait for grains to desecrate!
And when I get rice searing, I need burnt grains in a sack of sauce.
When I get rice pudding, I need to bake it till it's black as shit.
I gotta have burnt rice in a bowl, glands.
Don't ever trust a chef.
Ruin arborio.
Fish sauce.
Bad rice.
Don't undercook your rice.
It's not good to masturbate.
Wait, did you just end that with,
what did you say at the end?
Masturbate.
That lyric I didn't touch.
He does, that's not how it ends.
It ends with masturbate? Listen back to it it the last thing he says he whispers, but he says it's not good to masturbate
That can't be I'll look up the sexual healing lyrics. Yeah, I mean you got this
Please don't procrastinate. It's not good to masturbate. Yeah
Sort of how it ends. I was gonna say can I change my bond of the week what? It's not good to masturbate.
I was going to say, can I change my Bond of the Week?
Tim Waltz.
It's not.
It's kind of a big one. Jeff, I do have one note as your producer.
Okay.
I know that you're probably going to remix the audio,
like your vocals and the backing track,
but I actually think you should keep it exactly as it was for us,
which was the music so loud and you sounding like you were screaming it from another room.
Yeah, that was good.
That's what made me laugh so much.
I'm laughing at you about it.
Not the lyrics or the performance or anything I put into it.
The lyrics were pretty good,
but you screaming at the top of your lungs
and it being so quiet in the mix
and sounding like you were so far away.
Do you want to see me rehearsing it earlier?
Yeah, I think it's cool how you went for it.
Thank you.
No notes here.
Commitment is everything.
I like that you put Arborio in there.
Wow.
Connor Rice Grits, hear that?
Hear that?
Hear that?
Hear that?
Do you realize that's ruin all this rice?
I love it.
It's very cute.
Do you guys wanna see me Mahharshing it allier? Jeff doesn't want to admit how much he finds that funny and how that's exactly the same.
That was insane.
That was fine.
Do you want to see me marching it all year?
I'm gonna get that tattooed on me, dude.
And we're back.
Guys, are you familiar with Minute to Win It?
No.
I don't move and like some person you've never seen
before comes over and like twists a huge key
So basically
Fuck you guys. How's your neck bad? How's your head? Good never had any complaints nice
That was a mic drop. That was a bar.
You're not going to beat that, Jeff.
So let's not even try.
I was going to say that was a bar, but maybe we do the segment.
What segment?
That was a bar for sure, but maybe we also do the segment.
Is what I was going to say.
I think Amir was on the same page.
Zebulon is a bar.
None.
All right.
Welcome to Minute to Shin it.
Oh, I literally forgot you already tried to set this up.
I'm already so far past this.
Everybody has a minute each
to name as many celebrity calves as possible.
But you don't get to move forward until you guess correctly.
So we're going to start one by one.
Let's start with Brad.
One minute on the board, Brad.
You got to guess as many celebrity shins, but you don't move on to the next shin until you get the first one right.
That's why the timer comes in. Ready?
Three, two, one, minute on the board, go.
Uh, that is going to be, uh...
Shit.
Dwayne The Rock Johnson.
Correct!
I know those shins anywhere.
All right.
Let's go Jonah Hill.
Phonetically so close.
Jones Barbecue.
On third.
Jones Town.
Phonetically similar to Jonah Hill.
John Stamos.

Should we help?
Cause this feels hard.
No, no, you're gonna go next.
It is hard.
It feels hard.
It is hard.
That's why this isn't, that's what, yeah.
You have to stop yelling at me.

I can't continue, all right.
Cannot skip.
Leonardo DiCaprio

Yeah All right, Ali okay three two one go
Your aim your hint your hint is that it's phonetically similar to Jonah or whatever
or whatever.
I have no idea who this guy is. I think if we work as a team,
this might actually be playable.
What do you guys think?
Fine, fine, fine.
So let's say, I think it's someone whose name is like Joe.
Joe Rogan.
Joe Rogan!
Hey, I know those shins anywhere.
Oh, that's an old shin picture.
Yes, shins look different. Is it with the modern one you would have gotten it? He had his shins anywhere. That's an old shin picture.
Yes, his shins look different.
Is it the modern one you would have gotten it?
I think his shins look different now.
Those are quite shiny.
Lil Bow Wow.
Is that Rafael Medal?
Is that a tennis player?
Nope.
Cristiano Ronaldo. Is that a tennis player? Nope. I mean, I don't know if he's... Cristiano Ronaldo.
No.
Is it an athlete?
Okay, no, you know what?
Sorry.
I figured out the format of this midway.
It's minute per.
Okay.
And if you get it right, you get points.
And if you don't, we move on after the minute.
All right.
So here we go.
Okay.
One minute on the board for this one.
Is it an athlete? Allie, do you want to narrow it down by race? Get specific.
It said Will Smith.
Oh, holy shit, Allie.

All right, here we go.
Wait, I've seen this photo.
Yeah, you know who it is.
We've seen this photo.
Is this Orlando Bloom?
No.
Is it Paul Mescal?
No!
No.
Is it Justin Timberlake again? Mm-mm.
No, we've seen this photo, you guys.
That's a really nice calf.
Is it, um, is he on the bear?
No, dude.
Stop yelling.
What were you gonna say?
What were you gonna say, Jeff?
I was gonna say, picture a paperback
tucked into a back pocket.
James Franco?
No! No! into a back pocket. James Franco?
No!
Okay. 20 seconds.
I feel like I said all the people it could be already.
A paperback in a back pocket,
any guy that lives in Bushwick?
Oh, is it Shia LaBeouf?
Paperback, no, but look,
this actor played a character who constantly had a paperback tucked into
his back pocket.
Oh, so we're supposed to think about the character.
In the aughts.
In the aughts.
Adam Driver?
No!
Ansel Elgort?
No.
Time.
Milo Ventimiglia, obviously.
Oh!
Yeah, see, I knew we knew that because everyone remember when he wears the short little shorts.
So I went for short short guys.
I didn't recognize his calf, but I recognize his thigh.
Exactly.
Why is it all men?
One minute on the board because I don't want to be called a pervert, dude.
This is perverted either way.
Really?
Yes.
I guess now it's kind of homophobic and not perverted.
All right, Paul Dano.
That like you can't be sexually attracted to a man's leg. No, it's that men aren't traditionally objectified.
Is that true?
Traditionally?
Joe Jonas.
No!
Here's your hint, you already said this guy's name.
James Franco.
No, it's...
Paul Mezcal.

Are you upset? Yo ho, yo ho.
Oh, Orlando Bloom.
Correct!
Okay, I did not say that.
So I said it.
Ali said it. And we're actually not all the same.
Well, so that's not Orlando Bloom.
That's Robin Williams.
It's obviously hard because I don't remember who.
Yeah, exactly.
I don't remember Bloom.
Time on the board yet again.
John Krasinski.
That's gonna be incorrect.
That's gonna go ahead and be.
Yeah, look at those socks.
Krasinski wouldn't rock those.
He would too, he doesn't know how to dress as a Boston.
He's not a crew sock.
Doesn't this kind of humanize celebrities to you guys?
I mean, these Gams are like no better than my Yams.
Yours are really thin.
It's hard, yeah.
It's just, I'd better, yeah.
I don't want to body shoot, but I kinda like my calves.
Are you gonna put yours in?
That would've been funnier.
Yeah, no, if you had done that, that would've been cool.
If you'd done all of our calves, that would be cool.
I think that's a fireable offense.
I almost did a mirror.
Do you have a picture of my calf?
Yeah, I could find one.
Is this an actor? It is a folder. I don't remember. I
Don't remember. Like you don't remember who this is? No, I don't
Okay. Well, good luck to us. So no hint then. How do you know if it's right? I don't know

And also my brother started a Pokemon biology Instagram.
He has a PhD in biology. and he studies the biology behind the animals that Pokemon are based on.
So if any of you little freaks are interested in that, go check out Professor Gold PKMN.
That's really different than the first idea he had, which you told me was kind of like a game app
that called Pokemon Go to the Stalls.
It was basically like sending people into public restrooms to kick down the door to get what they thought was a Charizard,
but really was just a charge against them.
Yeah.
Yeah, we couldn't get funding.
Yeah.
Anya? You said Amir next. And I didn't close it out with Anya. We did close it out with Anya and then Amir, you
know, he's... Oh, we're not doing Amir at all. I think he'll be just fine without the plugs.
Everyone who listens to Svec wants to listen to Svec. I just want to say that I went on
the Doughboys podcast recently and it was so much easier than being on this show.
Yeah, because you're not hungry.
Like I wasn't stressed.
I really think you would enjoy this show more.
It wasn't that, it wasn't a food-based episode.
If you more consistently came having had.
It was just easier to kind of chat and riff,
and like we weren't, they weren't like, we weren't,
we were, everyone was kind of roasting each other lightly,
but there was like, they asked me questions about myself.
Like it was like kind of a different show and vibe.
Radio Free Anya on Instagram.
