Hello and welcome into the ringerverse.
The ringers nexus podcast, me for all things fandom.
Welcome back to Mint Edition, the once-in-a-while podcast.
All the latest fandom that you just can't live without.
I'm Steve Alman.
I'm Jimmy Dineron.
And we are joined today by two very beloved, very special guests from the East Coast,
Beast Coast, the man with the mostus.
It's Daniel Chin.
What's up, guys? Thanks for having me back here.
Daniel, how are you doing? Anything to promote or declare?
Doing great. Nothing to promote right now, you know?
Hopefully it'll be something to promote very soon.
Album coming out soon.
That's great.
That's what we in the business like to call a tease.
A tease. Yeah, let them know, Daniel.
And sitting across from us in the studios of lovely Los Angeles.
That's insane.
What?
Have some respect for my city
What in the world?
You sound like Masari in season one.
Jessica Clemens is here, everybody.
Mayback music.
Take key.
Oh, so, so, so.
Okay, she's just here to give us drops now.
She's not going to hear,
she's not here to do anything else but give us drops.
And I'm also very disappointed.
That was the first one that came to my mind.
I don't know why you did.
Mayback me.
Damn, son.
Where'd you find this?
This is a certain.
A certified hood classic.
They're good.
Memories, man.
Well, we are joined by these two wonderful people,
not just to do some DJ drops,
but to do a wonderful summer draft.
But before we get to that,
we got some programming reminders for you.
You may or may not have noticed
things are a little busy around these parts.
Yeah, Mondays and Thursdays,
the Midnight Boys are going to be giving you their
House of the Dragon and Ackleite
and the boys' reactions on those days, respectively.
And then Tuesdays and Thursdays,
You've got House of R on the House of Our feed,
giving you deep dives on House of the Dragon and the Acolyte.
And don't forget on Sunday nights right after House of the Dragon premieres,
Talk the Thrones is back.
C.R. Mallory Rubin and Joanna Robinson are going to be giving you their instant reactions
right as the episode end, so don't miss that out.
And you can see that all on Spotify, wherever you get your podcasts.
And Jomi, where else?
On YouTube, baby!
That's right.
We are now on YouTube.
Well, Men of Dish is not on YouTube.
But the Ring of Verse is.
And so you can find Talk the Thrones.
You can find the Midnight Boys.
And you can find the lovely women of House of R all on YouTube.
And you feel like, yo, Jemmy, I love YouTube.
But what about all the other stuff?
What about Instagram and Twitter and TikTok?
Don't worry.
We got you covered there.
At Ringiverse.
We got all the videos, all the memes, all the fun stuff.
Throw us a follow.
you. And we've appreciated your secret comments
that we gave from... We've seen them.
Cuckoo for contents. We saw it. So
to continue that
lovely tradition, we're going to pick a new secret
YouTube comment to comment
on the Ringoververse for all of our...
All the things that we come out with until the next
episode of Mint Edition. Jess and
DC are here. What should the secret
YouTube comment be for
Junior Mint's out there? It has to be a
secret? No. I mean...
A out of context phrase
that you can just say. Just to know, like,
we listen to Min Edition,
but it's going to be like our secret little thing.
So last week we said,
just comment,
we're cuckoo for this content.
And then a couple of people say that.
Oh, that's cute.
Yeah, we're cute like that.
Big Booty Boy Races.
There we go.
That's it.
I'm sorry, D.C.
You don't have it.
You don't have another other race.
Big Booty Boy races.
That's how it is.
I will happily see the Florida Jess.
Wonderful.
All right.
So comment on the Ring of First YouTube.
Big Booty Boy Races.
That's right.
Thank you so much.
All right, we're going to be having some fun today with our summer road trip draft.
Jomi, would you like to take it through us?
I got you.
So in honor of all the amazing content coming out of the summer and beyond, we are assembling the summer road trip draft,
which each of us will pick of the assembling road trip for the ages, right?
Picking from some of our favorite films and TV coming out this summer,
we're trying to build the best summer road trip.
out of all the characters from all those properties.
Right.
So we're going for the boys, Hot D, Acolyte, the Bear, and Deadpool and Wolverine.
So we're each going to pick one character from each one of these properties,
throw them in a car, set them off into a fictional destination.
The categories are driver.
It's going to be a leader, shotgun, navigator, who's got the ox, the music.
Snacks, somebody who's reliable, yapper, somebody funny.
storyteller who's going to keep the conversation going games stuff like that and destination real
or fictional where are these people going why are they going there before we get to that jess what was
the last road trip that you took oh that's actually a good question oh my god oh you know i don't i don't
know because i've been so lazy recently so i take a plane now places okay as god intended yes
within driving distance.
Oh, you guys go for...
I don't remember my last road trip.
D.C., how about you?
I drove across from Los Angeles to New York a couple years.
Oh, my goodness.
Yes, the big move.
The big, big move.
That was the big move.
How many days was that?
How long was that?
Oof.
We stretched it out, I'd say, over like 10 days or something like that.
10 days?
Oh, you made that a trip trip.
Do you have any pets?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Did you do it with any pets?
No pets.
I would have been so nice to have a dog on it, though, honestly.
Wait, did you do by yourself?
No, it was me and my, it was me and my girl.
friend. I would not be able to do that drive on my own.
But, you know, we stopped by the national parks along the way.
Oh, sweet. It was real nice.
Caught up on some narrative podcasts.
So it was good.
Some ringer podcasts.
What would you say is like the key survival tactic for that many days on the road?
Snacks and music.
Okay.
We're big, you know.
I made the very long playlist that we ended up cycling through many times.
So I should have made, I should have made that playlist a lot longer.
I underestimated it.
I don't know.
Just throw in one Taylor Swift album,
and that's pretty much going to be the entire, like,
10 days worth.
That might be it.
Yeah.
That is the time with,
if you're a musical fan,
just go listen to the entire soundtrack of a musical.
See if you can follow it without seeing the musical.
Oh, yeah,
wow.
I never thought I would follow along with Hades Town,
but apparently it's pretty easy.
This is insane.
I remember on a road trip,
I did listen to only like true crime podcast,
and it made it worse.
That's got to be.
No, that's bad.
That's bad.
It was the scariest thing of my life.
And I was by myself and it was like to San Francisco.
And I remember being like, oh, so I can get murdered on the side of road at any time.
Anytime.
Anytime.
I don't like that.
Jomey, how about you?
Last December, actually, I drove my sister's car from St. Louis, Missouri to Dallas, Texas.
Oh.
She was moving.
And so we were the helping help and get the car down there.
Had to drive through Arkansas.
I'm scared.
How tough was Arkansas?
Not great.
Not great.
Shout to Austin Reeves, but it smelled like Duke.
They just smell bad out the windows
Like literally you crossed the border
From Missouri to Arkansas
And it smelled like cheats
It was bad
A lot of road kill
I mean you know
You're going through the backwoods
We should have went through Oklahoma
In retrospect
But you know
Yeah how do you choose what place
Do you just choose the place
Or do you just follow your Google Maps
Just follow Google map
Well still there was two options right
One through Oklahoma
And one through Arkansas
And the one through Arkansas
And the one through Arkansas
Was faster by like
Maybe like 30 minutes
And we're like
We could use as much time
as you can get ready
late. The mover's already going to get down there.
Right? Let's hustle. Let's hustle.
Ultimately, it was fun, though, because
I've never been to Arkansas.
I've been to Texas, but never, like,
properly. And it was cool. You listened to some
podcasts and just vibe out, man. I don't let me
get road trip. What about you, Steve? What was the last time we went on?
The last road trip. I went on was
a two and a half day
up to Seattle to move a good friend
of mine. It was a great time,
and we basically just made a bunch of Twilight jokes.
So we got to Washington.
You have to. They spent like 1%
of their time in that movie.
I know, but it was raining and we went to a truck stop
and it was like, this is the truck stop of a killer bill.
Stop!
Don't remember my hometown and my franchise.
I'm about to say, you're from Washington.
Yeah, Fawkes is far away from Seattle.
I understand.
But it is, I understand.
I understand what the joke is with Washington State.
And especially for somebody who had never been there before,
I'm like, oh, okay, this will be my five.
God damn it.
You used Twilight as your perspective.
Is that not?
Should have been Frazier or what should have been?
Oh, yeah.
It should have been like Juno,
even though that's not in,
that's not in Washington.
So we're going to get into the draft real quick,
but I do have to ask you guys,
out of like driver,
shotgun,
snacks and yapper,
which one are you on the road trip?
Which one of my?
Hmm.
Because I am definitely,
if I'm not driver,
I'm probably nav.
Okay.
Yeah.
Shotgun.
What about you, DC?
Navigator for sure.
I'm not a,
I'm not a big driver, man. I only got my license when I moved out to Los Angeles.
And then you went back to New York. Are you sure you do that thing away?
That's enough driving. That is enough driving for me, man. Back to the subway. What about you, Jess?
I think I'm all of them. But except for the yapper, I don't like talking when I'm driving. I'm focused.
Actually, no, I'm on snacks. What am I talking about? Of course I go on snacks. I'm, I have a bag for myself. And then my friends can make their own business.
Wow, capital S snacks.
Yeah, they're mine.
Snacks mine.
Selfish.
They don't have J.C. on them.
Yeah, it says J.C.
And in like weird scribbles, it says mine all over it.
So no one gets it confused.
It's only cheez-its.
I don't know why I'm complaining.
I'm definitely like half driver, half shotgun.
Like, because here's the thing, man.
And especially when I'm driving, I need my music.
Not your music.
Sure, sure, sure.
I need my music.
What we're not going to do is listen to your garbage tracks while I'm in the car.
That's not going down like that.
Do you have that many navigators that match the vibe for you?
No.
No.
Nobody matches my vibe.
Nobody matches my freak.
Nobody matches your freak.
Nobody matches my freak.
I need somebody match my freak and nobody matched my freak.
I think that's arguably okay to be like, or at least that's my respect is I'm like, if I'm not driving, I'm not in charge of the auxiliary.
There's no point.
I don't need to be.
Especially, here's thing.
In my car?
In my car?
In my car?
Now, it wasn't my car, but I operated under the rules that was my car.
my car, I am the alpha
of the omega
the beginning of the end.
I am the god.
I am the devil.
This is such a weird
toxic male behavior.
It's not toxic.
It's my fucking car.
It's my car.
It's my car.
It's my car.
You're going to follow the rules.
Once we end this thing together,
you put your goddamn seatbelt on.
The Constitution doesn't apply in this car.
No, new, new.
This is car.
Oh my God.
I am the judge.
I am the judge, the law, the executioner,
whatever that phrase is.
Jomi has murdered so many people in his car.
I'm like, you know,
what you're not going to do.
would sit there with no seatbelt on and like turning up my music oh my gosh bro i'm in charge i'm glad
you got the warning out now the audience knows they will know they'll be like hey hey if you're
getting in a car with joamy don't trip do not mess with what stuff all right well let's get into
it now uh our wonderful producer isia is what did you call him i zia isia did i say i zia yeah
yeah like a zaynevna also it's okay he's watching soccer right now
Professional, chill
She's snitched, are you crazy?
Hey, what's the score right now?
I have no idea what you're talking about.
No, what's the score?
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Italy, Italy corner on all right?
You're probably watching right now too.
What's on his phone?
Look at his tabs.
Look at his tabs.
Look at all those tabs.
It's like 30 tabs open.
Yeah, they're all like...
His tab behavior is crazy.
Every single woman.
My tab behavior is nasty.
I don't close tabs.
There's nothing cordial about you.
You don't close tabs.
You need to break computers every time.
I do not close tabs.
I got like, what, three docs, things open,
eight Twitters over in, like,
I'm a tap hoarder.
Insane.
Well, our wonderful producer Isaiah is here
to spin the wheel
and determine the order of today's draft.
If you wouldn't mind.
Let's see it's spinning.
Spinning, spinning, spinning.
Damn.
Damn.
Steve.
All right.
Me first.
All right.
And then.
Steve's going to take it.
I better be second.
Oh, come on.
God.
Damn it.
Damn it.
Damn it.
This is close.
Who is it?
Daniel.

Daniel is there.
Okay.

We'll spin.
We'll spin.
Please, please.
Come, God.
Lord.
Not looking good.
To me.
Not looking good.
This is why I get for snitching out.
Yeah.
That's karma.
God, what Jesus Christ do.
So the order is me, D.C., Jomi, Jess.
Yes?
That's right.
All right.
Damn, damn, damn, damn.
The Almighty Will got you.
God damn, damn it.
I got to go with my backups.
Sorry, I'm so, so upset.
You never know.
You never know.
No, Jopi's going to say once a me.
This is the thing.
I love doing drafts with you, Jess, because you get the most stressed out of anybody I know.
Damn, it scares me.
I just love being here with Jess in the moment.
Anytime we podcast.
That's true.
That's true.
Thank you.
It doesn't have to be a draft, Steve.
Wow, Steve.
Be better next time.
You don't want to work with me no more.
You don't want to work with me no more?
You want to part with me no more?
Okay.
What is it the brides?

All right.
I think for my,
see, this is tough.
I've got a,
you got the full repertoire.
I do, but this is an interesting thing because...
You should go for an acolyte character first.
I probably should.
I really should.
Because, because you know why?
Not be as serious.
You're not being serious at all.
I am. I don't know why Jomey was laughing.
The bench isn't deep for the accolite, I'll say.
Of the people that I would want...
Are the starters deep?
I was going to say...
Daniel's probably going to take one of your accolite games.
I know. I just like...
Daniel's going to take one of the aquaic games.
So here's my philosophy.
I'm not going to give away any picks here, but I'm like...
The philosophy being that I'm like, there's only a couple of shows here where I'm like,
there's like a...
I could be fine if I lose out on a couple of characters.
Yes.
But there's people that I need.
You need, got to have them.
And they're not...
Okay.
Go for it.
Do what you got to do, Steve.
All right.
For the role...
For the role of yapper.
Yapper.
Storyteller.
Okay.
Moral booster.
Yes.
Third chair in the car.
Yeah.
We're taking Sid from the bear.
Sid?
As the yapper.
Is that the yapper?
Is that the glasses?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
You're right.
You're right.
You're right.
Yeah.
See, I don't know, man.
See, here's the thing.
Sid?
Yes.
As the yapper, I don't know.
I feel like I'm not going to say that she's yapping a lot, but she's got good
energy.
She's got great vibes.
I'm not saying.
Great vibes.
I don't think she's a storyteller.
I don't think she's funny, but.
I think Sid's funny.
No, no, in a car full of people for a long,
I think she's going to be more quiet than she,
it depends on who the other people are.
Are they equally quiet?
Or are they going to be like Deadpool?
Yeah, I don't know if Yapper was the right,
is the right role for her.
But she's good to have in the car.
It depends on who's in your car too.
I'll say that.
Here's the thing.
I have a feeling that a lot of you guys are going to pick certain other
characters for Yapper,
and I might find some of those characters annoying
for long stretches of time.
Maybe, I mean, okay, your whole thing is you don't want,
I mean when somebody's going to yap at a level that's not going to piss you off.
Sustained and tolerable.
Sustained and you're going serious, which makes sense because I'm going the opposite route, which is exactly like, oh, everyone in my car is annoying.
That's fair. That's fair.
But no, I like, yapper can really, can really ruin a car ride for the people that don't know when to stop talking.
That's fair.
I also wanted to be said on record that when she said Sid, it hit me weird because I never hear her name being called in the show.
And then on top of that, I always refer to her as Ayo's character.
Right.
I never call her by her character name.
I think I only call Karmie Karmie.
I mean called Maddie Madison and Maddie Madison.
I don't call him Neil.
So I was like, oh.
First of all, it's fact.
Second of all.
I've never called him fact before in my life.
Really?
No.
It is.
With a K?
It is syllabically dicey.
If I'm being completely honest, like when he's like in that first, I think
like the first two episodes or whatever.
Yeah.
He's the only character I recognized.
And I was like,
Mattie Matheson.
Is that Matthew Matheson?
Yeah, that's all he said.
Everybody else, I was like, oh, these are all new people.
That's interesting.
I don't know who is.
I was like, Matthew Madison, what are you doing here?
But it made sense because he's also an actual chef.
But he's the only one who doesn't cook.
Which is very funny.
It's really funny.
I hope he never cooks.
Daniel, you're up.
All right.
Show me something.
So we're going completely out.
Like, I thought we were doing like category by category.
So I can pick any category.
Any category in any order.
Any order.
All right.
All right.
Well, I'm going to go shotgun.
music pick first.
Okay.
And I'm going to go M.M.
Oh, that's good choice.
That's good.
That's good choice.
Great navigator.
My mother's milk from the boys.
That's good.
Part of it is I don't know the music taste of the majority of these characters.
But if you go by shirts alone,
you know.
By shirts alone.
M.
I know exactly what he likes in.
I'm down for it for the car.
I hear you, like I think as a music choice, perfect, right?
He's going to have all the good 90s hits, like everything.
You're going to be in that car bumping.
Right. The car going to be jumping, you feel me?
As a navigator, I don't know.
It's tough.
They're all kind of funny also.
So it's like, I think it would be funny to watch him get confused.
If this was like a show, I'm already on board with Daniels.
See, I think that he would be holding the phone and just be too distracted by the Spotify playlist maker and not actually look the map.
But that'd be funny.
And he's like, oh, wait, shit. Hold on. What?
Should be mad confused?
No, I mean, there's something to it.
I see the vision, though.
I think MM, like especially like the ox, like you'd be on great hands.
You don't have to worry about it.
And I think he's like a good second command too, you know.
I don't really see as a leader.
He's been wavering a little bit.
Yeah.
Try as a leader.
Lord knows.
I think he's got a person.
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
And we saw the results there.
But as the number two guy and shotgun, I try to tell me out.
I see the vision.
All right.
Me, I'm sniping one of Jess's picks.
Shut up.
No, you're not.
I'm absolutely from down.
No.
My driver.
Give me Corlis.
You, you, why would you do that?
Why would you do that?
Joe's so unserious.
That is up.
Give me Corlis.
I want somebody who I know is going to get me there,
somebody who's a leader, been there,
you know, on the high seas.
Think about how easy driving is.
Anybody, any 16-year-old can get a driver's license.
Corlis is out there on the high seas, surviving battles.
It's literally called a road trip, Joe.
man.
You know what I mean?
Hey, hey, hey, on the seas
you need a driver,
here you need a driver.
You know what I'm saying?
It's still a wheel.
It's still a wheel.
You can't drive a car?
What?
He can drive it,
he can drive a car, you can't figure it out.
He can't drive a car?
You can't be?
It's way easier to do that.
I imagine it.
I'd imagine his steering wheel is just a little
nautical wheel.
No, it's a wheel still.
It's still a circular item.
Also,
it's a pirate ship wheel.
I shouldn't be defending Jomi
because he clearly stole this.
This is the only character I know,
and I put him in the driver's seat as well.
Yeah, tough sin.
You hate to see it.
You hate to see it.
Do you know how many black people are in all these shows?
Four.
You can count them on one day.
Yeah.
They literally only have the two scenes.
And Daniel took the third.
Like, I'm trying.
I'm not going to put A train on my list.
Like, oh.
I know why you would.
That's just like.
I put a different person.
I'm giving away too much.
A train is on my list and I'm driving the Flintstones car.
That's why.
Everybody's dying.
Like, fine.
Going away too fast.
Yeah, coiless is, that's my driver.
That is insane.
I'm going to take my destination.
My location.
Oh, no, no, I'm not.
No one's going to take that.
I was going to say, that's all you, man.
Very confident.
You got to, you had a double back.
This is a certain thing pattern, so you can.
My location is a Guy Fietti restaurant, and I don't think anyone's going to take it.
Well, we might now.
We might now.
Watch it.
Let me.
Let me lock in.
You don't know which one.
Wait, doesn't matter which one.
There's a lot of them.
There is a lot of them.
Is it okay if I choose a specific.
different one.
All right,
just with two picks.
Two picks.
Okay.
I'm gonna,
like Steve said,
I'm going for an annoying,
funny car.
Mine's the clown car.
Because my yapper,
funny storyteller is
Deadpool.
All right.
That's, yeah.
Yeah,
that's the role he was born to play.
Yeah, that's the only role
he could play.
Yep.
I don't want him driving.
I don't want him driving.
I don't want him driving.
He ain't driving.
No, he's just going to talk.
Yeah.
And my snacks,
reliable person,
is going to be Richie.
from the bear
because him and Deadpool
will have a great story time
talking to each other
and screaming at each other
I'm about to say
it's either they get along like brothers
or Deadpool's got one in his chest
and he also tells terrible stories
but like he'll love the stuff
that Deadpool gets so like they'll be viving in the back
they'll both be listening to Taylor Swift
I just have to make sure I just gotta make sure
my shotgun person plays Taylor Swift
which I think they will based on the character
so you have Yapper Deadpool
and snacks
Richie
Is Richie about to be the thing too
in a fantastic floor?
That's right
Did you see his great quote
where is this like
Are you training at all for
Are you looking at rocks?
He's ready
That's funny
No he's locked it
He's locked in
Okay for me
I'm going snacks here
And I will take another bear character
But
I'm taking Marcus for snacks
Oh
Because Marcus is a patient
street guy. He's always locked in with the snacks.
And here's the thing, because at the restaurant,
it was annoying because he needed to do
other stuff. And he was trying to
like perfect the donut.
And then the carm's like, hey, hey,
hey, hey, this is not what we're doing here.
Lock up. You know what I'm saying? Lock in.
Like, what are you? Like, focus up.
For this one, that's all they got to do.
It's focused on little snacks.
That's fair. But if we get lost or if we get
like, if a tire breaks down
or something like that,
he'll be like, hey, I perfected
my donut. At least you'll be
happy in the summer. No, I'd be
like a throw that shit on the ground. Well,
you don't like good food. Clearly
not. Clearly not. I'll send his
ass to Sweden and take him to learn.
And I say bring back that chef that taught
you. Oh, bring back Will Poulter?
God, and those little tattoos.
Oh, that man was so fine. Okay,
keep going. No, please. Continue going on how far.
Is that your destination for all of this, by the way?
Is Will Poulter's tattoos?
I love those little scraggly
tattoos on that man. He was built for
that. Okay, but either way. Marcus?
Yeah, I think that's a great idea for actually.
You guys are going for actual things and these are good choices.
That's very good.
D.C., where you at?
All right. I'm going to go with my
driver leader pick right now.
I'm going with Master's Soul from
the Akelyte.
Oh.
I think he's a good leader.
Interesting. I don't know.
Is he going to kill a kid? I don't know how much is on the way?
He's going to run over a child?
Hey, we don't know the full story yet.
We're going to hear from him very soon
one of these next episodes
You don't pick up a straggling
but like,
yo,
I don't know what happened to your sister.
It's honestly
one of the only characters
I like from the Acoite right now
and a lot of that has to do that
I think it really is right now.
Daniel of that has to do
the actor behind it but
You're not taking Mundy?
Monday you're not cool for you
Monday don't move the needle?
Listen, I've got
so far my Akelete pick is safe.
If you take Damon from the boys
then I'll be like,
oh, Daniel's crazy.
I don't, I mean, we'll talk about it
when it's over,
but there are some characters you can't.
You can't have one.
Yeah, you can't put Homelander on yours.
No, there's some play on.
You can't.
You cannot.
You can't put.
Really a lot of the boys' characters.
As a joke for the snacks, I was going to do like cheese from blood and cheese.
And I was like, it's not funny.
No, you can't.
He's a monster of a person.
He's going to be there hanging out.
Oh.
Oh.
Damn.
Wow.
He was, though.
All right.
He was like 13 of the dudes.
Hey, yo, Ego was crazy.
Hey, you know, Ego was crazy.
Really quick.
Otto, when he said, trifling.
Brinks!
I said, give me that.
My friend, son, it's a fool.
Like, not fun. I'm not even, like, I'm not even joking.
That was a serious scene.
Every single person I seen was incredible.
They acted so, so well.
I have, it is the funniest thing I've ever seen.
I heard you, we were screening that episode in the screening room here at Spotify.
And when that scene came on, the laugh that Jomey had, I wasn't even in the theater, and I heard him.
Otto, he was looking at them.
boys crazy.
At the end he goes, by
God have mercy on all the
God.
And what?
His hands.
His hands.
He turned around like,
he said, what?
I can watch,
I can watch that all day.
He's so good.
Incredible stuff.
It was great stuff.
Incredible stuff.
He said I just played the lizard
and now I'm back.
Hey, listen, he's fucking
rocking this shit, all right?
Give him an Emmy this year.
Trevelyn.
Tril.
All right, DC, you want a match of soul
for your driver.
Steve, where you at?
You got two picks.
Okay.
Two picks.
I'm really happy.
I think I'm going to be happy with this.
All right, Navigator.
Okay.
Smart, like, affluent and also
confident.
Yes.
I don't know if she'll mess up the vibes for this.
Okay.
But from the boys,
I'm taking Sister Sage.
Okay.
All right.
All right, man, you're not being serious.
How am I not being serious?
Smartest woman in the world.
Get us anywhere.
Smartest person, Steve.
What?
Smartest person,
as she corrects every single time.
Smartest person.
That's right.
That's right.
That's right.
That's right.
That's right.
That stays in.
Stays in.
Stays in because I'm here to learn.
Smartest person.
Smartest person.
Get us, gets us out of a jam.
Anytime.
And frankly,
uh,
I think,
I think,
decent vibes all around. I love that actor.
I love this character. Great.
Stealing the second season easily.
The second season? Or the fourth season
of the boys? Easley.
You know, it's funny. For my snacks,
for backup, I put dumb sage.
Because I want...
Dumb Sage. I want the...
I want Doritos.
Yeah, the post-lobotomy sage.
But you can take normal sage.
That's fair. That's fair.
I don't know. I love Sister Sage. She's great.
I love Sister Sage. It's a problem.
It's a problem.
Her name's also Jessica.
In real life?
No, Sister Sage's actual name is Jessica in the show.
Her name's Jessica Bradley.
And I was like, damn, I love her even more now.
I mean, the actress Susan Hayward has done a great job.
Amazing.
She's incredible.
Sister Sage, to me, seemed like she always got our own agenda.
Yes.
And I can't trust her.
I can't trust her own agenda.
Brother, we're supposed to be a team.
We're supposed to be a unit.
But we're against, we're always going to be against Vaught.
And if she's trying to take down Vought from the inside, I want to see it.
But I don't think she's doing that.
Just wait until we find the destination.
I think she wants to be Stan Edgar, which is even better.
I mean, I can't trust somebody like that.
I don't know for me.
Steve, you got another one?
Yes.
Okay.
Let us, let it be known.
Now you know how unserious I am.
All right, for snacks.
Taking Basil from the Acolyte.
Man, see, here's, I feel like Basil will be a better navigator, no?
Because he's literally a tracker.
He didn't get lost.
What?
What snacks is he bringing?
though, Steve.
Yeah, what kind of
snacks is he bring it?
Pungent ones is what he's bringing.
He'll bring everything, he'll bring
everything, all the types of cheeses
you want, all of the good snacks,
and frankly, he's going to keep to himself.
Wow.
And that's okay.
Brother, man, I don't know, man.
He might have to turn into a snack
if things get hairy.
I don't think so.
You might have to, hey, Basil.
If he's sitting next to Sid and Sister Sage,
Sister Sage, listen.
car breaks down.
It's been three days.
Right.
You're going to die.
Since the stage is looking at him and like, yo, we got to make a call.
Basil, I'm sorry.
What's your fat content?
Okay, you lean, you meaty?
Right.
And he looks at him like, woo, woo.
And they make the call.
And now you're eating Basil and it's like, I don't know what road trips you're on where you think that murdering somebody, like that there's not just going to be.
I'm sure the donors have the same conversation.
Or the dinners are like, yo, man, we're going to stop by the Walgreens.
We're going to be high.
I'm building a fun car, all right?
Your cars.
The vibes, what is it, Sister Sage?
Sister Sage, Sizzle, and Basel.
Yeah.
It's not, hey, look, look at Steve.
Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Sister Sage and Sid, the sactivist lives.
Look at the boy.
I wasn't familiar with your game.
Get that me up, man.
I'm proud of you.
Look at this boy, man.
I see what you about.
Someone's got to do it because now my team's very white since he took
I see what you about, my boy.
There we go.
Steve, I was familiar with your game, but still.
Don't forget.
All right, Daniel.
Did you see where you at?
All right.
Let's see.
From my yapper, storyteller, morale booster.
I'm going with Blind Al from the Deadpool franchise.
Oh, that's good.
Wait, for your what?
For his yapper.
For my yapper storyteller.
That's funny.
That's good.
I feel like she would be fantastic.
She's got a lot of stories in her.
You could already tell.
Her and Mother's mouth would be so funny.
Oh, man.
She'd be taking the piss out of him.
The banter between these two would be off the charts.
And then Master Souls is going to be confused as hell.
Not knowing what's going on.
I'm going with Blind Al.
That's a good one.
I didn't even think about Blind Al.
That's a good one.
Damn, I would have taken.
Very, very, very good.
So, the interesting about Blind Al and just like the Deadpool
Antillery characters, they're, like, there's a scene.
where they're like at the like the birthday right in the uh the trailer there's a deple trailer it's not a
spoiler for anything uh that trailer they're all the thing and then like drag him are like are they
gonna be in the movie that much probably not because there was such a big part of the first two

Nickasahy.

Which we know is Knuckles.
I can't wait until we bleep out of them.

Knuckles could definitely say it.
Watt,

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He was going crazy.
He was really.
Sad that Shadow wasn't, didn't get the invite.
Bro.
We're not getting into this.
Look, look, listen, God, I'm not going to lie to y'all, man.
When Sonic 2 came out and they had that post-credit reveal,
Oh, my God.
Yeah, Shadow come out to, oh, bro.
The Pryo Chamber.
I went crazy in the theater, bro.
Joe, sit down.
Oh, let's go.
Let's go.
Start running over the scene.
I'm taking, Vegas is taking bets.
Does Shadow use a gun in Sonic?
He's got to shoot Maria in the face.

I guess Maria dies
I don't know if Shadow kills Maria
but Maria does die
And Sonic?
Yeah
Oh yeah
Knotically yes
Canotically does she kill
Maria I don't know about
I'm not that tied up
In the in the
The lore

They're not gonna do that
Dude
Bro you're not locked in
Apparently they cast Maria
It's all the thing bro
You gotta tap him
You gotta tap him

it doesn't even matter what
where the topic is for any podcast
I'm on with for Mn Edition
Sonic always comes up somehow
Hey listen
And I still haven't seen it
I'm like this is some mint edition
lore that people don't know
But I'm gonna tell them anyway
It's speaking to our little
world when we were first piloting the show
Right when we're like they're like
Yo we want you guys do a podcast
Like let's do some test episodes
See what works
One of the best what we did
The first one, the one that we liked the most was us talking about Sonic.
Sonic 2.
Yeah.
That was the one we were like, oh, we got something.
This is, this is magic right here.
You got to release the, release the Sonic tapes.
I don't know, bro.
We were arrested.
I don't know.
It's like, Winby's first game.
Yeah, Wimby's first Summer League game.
I don't know, no, no.
We don't need, we don't need that.
This episode is brought to by Paramount Plus.

Dutton Ranch starring Colehauser, Kelly Riley,
Annette Benning, and Ed Harris
now streaming on Paramount Plus.
All right, who's up next?
My turn, I have destination,
I have Navigator,
and I have Gapper.
Here's the thing, right?
I do have an idea for a yapper, but I don't know.
I'm going to do it.
I'm going to do it.
For my yapper, I need you guys to hear me out on this one.
I'm taking Kimiko from the Boys.
Oh, my baby.
I'm taking Kimiko.
I do love Kimiko, but why?
Why yapper?
Because Kimiko, while she is, you, does have a lot to say.
And when she does say it, it's fun and it's entertaining.
And, you know, all we got to do is just put a talk to text to talk on the phone.
And we're having a good time.
Okay.
We're having the best time.
Just her vibes are immaculate.
Of all the people in the boys, all the characters like in the boy, not I'm going to say, maybe even the boys universe, but like in that like single group of the boys, she's the one with the best vibes.
It's like her, Huey, Starlight, and then you start to go like mothers.
milk is a little like, all right, cool.
Then it's Frenchy.
And then 300 miles away is butchered.
Right, right, right.
On the, oh, man, let's go hang out sometime type vibe.
Like, if I want to hang out with somebody from the boys,
Kimmel's the first one, she was cool.
Episode two, she was pounding those beers down.
And she was like, talking to French, she was like,
I had a beer.
I had another beer.
I had three beers.
Four, you guys don't, the Stone Cold?
It's been a minute.
Five beers.
Five beers.
Six beers.
Yeah, that's actually pretty
better than my stone cold.
Yeah, but she's got a magna vibes
and if I need somebody to keep us going,
cheer us up, she's going to have a little
fun thing to say.
And you can break out into a musical number
whenever you like that.
I'm not doing all that.
I love that episode.
I thought the episode was fun,
but that's not for me.
My joints don't work.
No, I think it was genuinely amazing.
I think you also have to get like high to do it
because she was under the drugs.
She was under the drugs.
She was under the drugs at the hospital.
She was.
Yeah, how high are your people in your car getting?
They're not getting high at all because we're driving cars.
Not the driver.
The destination is sure.
They're going to eat an edible before they get in.
It depends on the state and world we're dropping it.
What if you?
Even lower the rings, oh, you got that long bottom leaf.
You're good.
I'm just saying, you drive through Texas with that smoke on you.
Deadpool is going to be popping.
Jess, I think we all know that the destination in Jomi's car is church.
Oh.
Going to church?
That's true.
That's what you guys going on.
I see a hour church.
Journey to church.
It's a great.
church.
Man, what do you think?
It's a very good church.
It's the next mega church.
He's not doing all that.
Past was going to be on the strings, like flying down.
Wait a minute.
Don't worry about me.
Let me in the car.
Don't worry about me.
To see, man, come down on the wires.
It's that final video of the pastor who's just like stuck there.
Christ alive.
I'm obsessed with it.
Okay.
Oh, man.
You got two, Jess.
I get to choose two.
And it feels like I've waited forever.
I've never gone forth in the draft.
And now I know how he's.
feels. But I get to get two, which is great.
I was like sweating, listening
to you guys say yours. I was like, oh, thank God.
Two acolytes. Okay,
so my shotgun navigator for music
in a car
with Richie and Deadpool is
The Deep. The No.
Is Chase Crawford
The Deep? Here's the thing. You got
me. You got me. You got me.
Listen. Because you imagine being like, oh, you guys, I got this really good song
right now. All navigators have been
have been the boys' characters.
That's probably going to continue.
I was thinking about the deep as my navigator.
Because, again, Deep as a character, terrible human being.
Terrible human being.
As a character, hilarious.
Him with Richie and Deadpool in my car is just going to be.
Absolutely.
They're going to listen to Taylor Swift.
They will.
Every single album.
Every single album.
But there has to be, I understand.
I made a chaotic car.
There has to be one person to keep them in line.
Sure, sure, sure.
So my driver slash leader is Otto Hightower.
Amazing.
He's going to kill himself.
Yeah, no, he'll kill, yes.
Could you imagine that speech he's going to turn the music off and go,
Pranks, trifling, insolent, pops.
God, have mercy on us all.
And what has the deep dot him?
He's going to drive off a cliff.
Deadpool's going to say, like, Deadpool and Richard would be fighting,
and the deep is going to be like, trying to be like,
hey, man, you know, if I was you,
man.
This is crazy.
Miserable face.
And you see like it's like it's
it's exactly the meme from
Parasite of the dude driving.
Yeah.
Just looking up in the
everybody else like losing it.
He's going to be like cool.
We're going to take this left.
Well, you can't take this left.
It's off a cliff.
And then they're in the air.
Immediately.
That's so funny.
I just imagining that giant coat
in the hand and everything.
And he's just driving.
Have you seen that dancing in the moonlight meme
where there's three dudes in the car?
Dancing in the moonlight
You haven't seen that?
No, man, I got to show you.
And then one guy's just miserable.
And then one guy's just looking at them crazy.
That's exactly...
Hold on.
Man, we pull this up, man.
It's exactly what it's going to look like.
That's amazing.
All right, Daniel.
It's definitely not Daniel.
Oh, no, it's not.
No, it's you, Jomey.
It's you.
This is it.
This is what it's going to look like.
Oh, four lions.
Yeah, four lions.
I love four lions.
That's exactly what's going to like
That's Otto, right there
That's the D's the D's the Deep
That's Deadpool, Richie
Otto
Looking crazy
Have you
Has anybody else here seen Four Lions?
I've seen that clip without Lylems though
It's an amazing movie
Nandor from
Oh my God
Nandor from
What We Do in the Shadows
Riz Ahmed
And then two other guys are in it, and they play terrorists effectively picking places.
It's a black comedy.
They play terrorists, like, trying to find a way to, like, start a war in London.
And it's nuts.
It's very funny.
That sounds dark.
It's dark.
It's very, very dark.
Jesus.
My turn.
I need a shotgun never.
and the destination. Let me, let me do a, let me do shotgun here. Net music. I think somebody,
and I just, I think I just mentioned them, do I have to take an acolyte character?
I mean, I don't think you do. There you go. I love that answer, Daniel. It's great answer.
If you were, if that's the answer you wanted, why don't you just do it?
It's a great answer. It's a great answer. It's a great answer. I love that. Well, here's thing,
is you got to act for permission, and then as soon as somebody give you an inch, you take the
Maya. Yeah, you know, I got you. I got it. I said yes.
And I was like, that's not what I want to hear.
Daniel, be honest, he has to.
Got me.
You must.
I'm taking Huey from DaBaby's.
As your shotgun?
My shotgun.
What music is Huey listening to?
Well, he got the Billy Joel.
Got the Billy Joel shirts.
I'm not going to lie.
I like that shit.
Why are you acting in surprise?
Because people will not look at me and go like,
yo, Jeremy, you like Billy Joe, you like Billy Joel?
You like Billy Joel's amazing.
He's my favorite piano, man.
You don't look at, you don't look at me and go, man.
You'd be like, you put, if I put some hell,
phones in. I'm walking around and be like, he listened to.
What, what, what, fuck him up. That's what you do. I'm listening to.
Then he's like, she's always a woman to me.
I know, I know for a fact, Hughie like talking heads, bro.
Yeah.
I know what fact, I'd be, man, they had that one song. Hey, reset the clock.
A's and Shield, baby.
A's his shield, uh, the season five premiere. Uh, this must be the place.
This is so stupid because that's the only context in which he knows that song.
And I love it.
And then it plays in a different thing.
Where was it playing?
It was playing in a movie that we saw.
We were talking about in the office.
I don't know what a movie,
but we're talking about it in the office.
Yeah, it was playing for us.
In the office.
And he's just like, oh, yeah, talking heads,
singing along the song.
And I was like, wow, yeah, you know that song?
And he's like, yeah, man.
So blah, blah, blah, season three,
eases his shield, baby.
And I'm like, I hate you.
This is so stupid.
My ace is a shield, people know.
Of course not.
They know, man.
So, yeah, I'm going with,
I'm going with Huey.
And these thing,
he's got to give music taste.
And as a navigator.
I feel like you give him not too much responsibility, bro.
Just keep us on a road.
Think he we can do all right.
They can be solid at that.
I won't be mad at that.
Criminal.
Yeah, man.
You hate him.
He's like, look, he's haters.
All right.
Daniel, please even us out here.
All right.
So I think I have snacks and destination left.
All right, I'm going to do snacks.
I feel like it's got to be somebody from the bear.
I'm going Tina.
I really love Tina.
Oh, that's a good one.
That's a good one.
That's good.
really good character evolution between seasons one and two.
Yeah.
I love Tina.
You know,
you know,
he's getting held out to dry here,
but honestly,
I understand why.
Fibes are off.
They are bad.
If I want to be accosted,
definitely.
I just call every hater I have.
55 burgers, 55 fries, 55 shit.
Yeah.
Is I going to put that guy on my?
Yeah.
Tim Robbins, yeah.
I love Karmie,
but it's not going on.
Carmi is.
The road trip is getting way too complicated
in the road trip.
Richie was like,
way more complicated than it needed to be.
Corner!
Curb!
Stop, right!
I can't do that.
I can't do that.
No.
Absolutely not.
No, that's a good thing.
So, Tina,
uh,
good, good, good vibes all around.
She's like,
not too crazy.
I would have half thought.
I think it's a good road trip.
No, that's a good road trip.
Absolutely.
Good road trip partner.
Okay.
All right.
So then I guess that's me.
Yeah, man.
You got driver and destination.
Driver and destination.
All right.
Here we go.
All right.
I'm going to pick destination.
Okay.
Uh,
this will be a real place,
but it'll be in the universe.
of the bear.
Yeah.
It will be Pequod's
pizza in Chicago
on Wells.
Best pizza in the city.
And everybody's driving
from probably, I'll just say somewhere
in the West Coast because this is a long trip.
But it's basically, in my
head, Sid is going to be taking
everybody to get some great pizza. But my driver
is
going to be, this is hard.
It's a lot of game left, man.
You can do this. I believe me.
You know, you got to
pick, man. Pick him. Go ahead, do it. Believe in the hard
in the cards, brother. He's going to choose
homelander. No. No.
And it's going to be a horrible time. Weirdly enough, my driver's going to be
Wolverine.
Okay. Yeah. Yeah. It's not going to be fun. He's going to be focused.
It's going to be a smelly one. Smelly. He's going to be hairy. He's
probably going to be drinking. Yeah, I think Sage and Sid are going to be so tired of him.
Yeah. But that's fine because he'll be focused.
He's got to make sure that he's focused.
I'm not going to lie, man. The vibes in your car.
They're not like super
It's not rancid
I don't want to
That's not too far
But I don't know
Rancid
It's not
Rancid
It's not
You said it out loud
So now I'm thinking
It's not
Because you got Sage and Wolverine
Like in the front
And that's some like
Real like mom and dad
Like
That's true
They have decided
And then the two
literal children
In the past
They decided six weeks ago
That this marriage
Was over
Right
They are on the way
To tell you
Right
But they haven't yet
So now they have to like pretend to get along despite the fact that dad has already got an apartment in the city.
He's going to have to start paying rent for it.
And we got his stuff in the hatchback.
Right?
It's like, I don't know.
Like you get to the P-Claz.
It was like, hey, guys, we came all this way.
Came to tell you that mom and dad are getting a divorce.
That is like a perfect example of what your car is.
That's probably true.
It is.
You're the divorced bound.
Divorced-bound.
Okay.
All right.
Every child is sweating.
I sit in that.
That's good.
That's the divorced.
That's the divorced children mindset.
And I imagine they're taking the dad's car that has like crumbs in the corners of every scene.
Yeah.
The seatbelt, you don't even want to touch it.
It's just like, it's just a bunch of beer can't.
And you're like, are you driving and doing this?
Don't worry about it.
There's a Snickers wrapper.
And the vents.
Basil's like, you know I'm allergic.
Oh my God.
I would hate to be in that car.
Sorry.
I mean.
I know it's more crazy in there.
Yeah.
All right, D.C., where are you guys going?
Finish it up.
Hmm.
Wait, see, what was the place, my phone?
What was the place you just chose?
Pequods pizza in Chicago, Illinois.
Pequod's pizza, okay.
I remember during COVID, they had, like,
it wasn't Pequods, but it was like some kind of like,
something.
Giordano's, the Mottis.
You know, it was like, Piccadilly's or something?
Piccadillis.
And it was like, yo, where does this piece of place come up?
It was just checking cheese pizza.
Oh.
They had them ghost kitchens.
Oh, my.
My God, I hate the ghost kitchen.
Ghost kitchen will get you every time.
I just fell for a ghost kitchen because my...
You fell for a ghost kitchen.
I went in there.
There's a bunch of ghouls.
Just the people of bunch of bed sheets.
I'm screaming as soon as I get it.
Well, Ben sheets and eye holes.
You sure that wasn't a KKK meeting?
Steve.
Steve, that's different.
That's not my ghost kitchen.
I don't know.
No.
Hey, my ghost kitchen.
My ghost kitchen.
Jesus Christag not my ghost kitchen.
Daniel, where are we going?
Save me, please.
I'm pulling the emergency shoe.
You're absolutely killing me.
I don't even.
All right, I'm going to go for a real spot, too.
Okay.
At first I was thinking about Chorusant, honestly,
but I'm switching it up last minute.
Because I feel like you guys are,
I feel like the real destinations are a little bit more fun,
a little bit more creative.
Yeah.
And I think I'm going to go for,
I'm taking these people karaoke
in L.A.'s K-town.
Oh, okay.
Oh, my God.
Mother's milk and blind.
I love, love, love, love,
Brass Monkey.
Yeah, that'd be mad.
I think, especially you need something
for Master's Soul to feel like, you know.
Oh, man.
Away for instance, you know, flip a little bit.
All right. Now, what song is everybody singing?
Yeah.
That's a good question.
What are the vibes like?
Hmm.
That's, see, that's a good question.
I don't know.
M.M., you already know, is going to be doing 90s rap.
which is rap is very hard in karaoke
but
as for everybody else
I mean what is what is Master Soul listening to
he's gonna be like some like
Aerosmith don't want to miss a thing
oh yeah
I killed him he'll be
he'll be the one that you're like
emotional exactly he's gonna be the one
that you like don't expect to be good
but then just comes out with this
crazy good voice
and just has the whole crowd in the palm of his hands
but we're going we're going
of karaoke in the K-Town.
My hot take is that, like, I think that people that can sing for real should only go on
karaoke once. Did you know that for like Rihanna's birthday, she had like all her friends
do karaoke and it was like John Legend, like a bunch of other celebrities?
I would hate that. I said, what's the point? I would hate it.
Okay, but imagine like you're her friend from her home from the hometown and he took to the party
and it's all these like legendary singers. And they're like, all right, go up there, go see.
That's what I don't want.
Your turn. You're like, no. I don't. I don't want.
And I'm like, okay, Jess, get up there.
And I'm like, after, no.
After John Ledge?
He played the keyboard for his own karaoke.
I'm not doing this.
I'm a spectator right now.
I'm on spectator mode like Minecraft, bro.
I can only watch.
That's wild as hell.
Yeah, no.
Yeah, hell not.
That's just like you competing too.
Rihanna, of course, you're going to do a great job.
Yeah.
You're just competing with these people.
This is that birthday where it's like, all right, obviously we're doing what you think is nice.
But we're not really there for that.
That's me.
That's me.
Not for real.
That's facts.
Okay, my turn, oh, this is, here's the thing.
When we initially pitched this idea, my whole thing was I'm going to ride a dragon.
I'm going to ride a dragon, but it doesn't, it's not a safe.
It's not a four-seater.
It's not a four-seater.
How many people are fit in on the truck?
I think you can fit a couple people on VAR.
You can fit a couple of people with snacks.
No.
You know, like a two-by-two.
Snacks are not making a trip.
Like, I mean, Corliss can definitely like drive, sneeze-stakes.
Can, like, pilot's knee-stake.
and then in the bag of the sea we're like
hey you got to go over here
you got to go to the left and then it's going to play the music
mind you the wind is crazy
up there's got to be crazy you can't hear nothing
it's freezing cold that's what I'm gonna do
but shout out to Daniel Chan
you're hearing no stories up there exactly right
shout out to DC
he didn't take Horaceant that was my pick
I'm taking chorus on baby
I don't I feel like I like the choruson
I feel like you gotta get deep in the underground
for good chorus off
I don't say we're not just going to the Jedi Temple man
there's a whole site
Gardens.
Yeah.
There's a whole sight scene there, though.
Brother.
It's a, it's a city, it's a city, it's a city, it's a city planet of three trillion
people or whatever.
Right.
There's so much to see, so much to do.
We're not, we're taking the back streets, you know?
Brother, we're not, why are we warping there, right?
Why are we going on light speed?
You never know if you don't go.
Exactly.
You'll never shine if you don't glow.
I think, I, hey now, you're an all star.
Nobody, nobody caught on that.
Jess, if you left right now, I wouldn't blame you.
Nobody caught.
I was, I zoned out.
So.
I listen to this garbage.
I heard Smash Mouth and I got a little excited.
No, I'm going to Korsan.
I think Korsonaut would be really fun for my whole people.
You know, Marcus and Huey, they seem like nerds.
Do you think they do Jedi Council tours like the White House tours?
I think in the High Republic, yeah.
You know, hey, come look.
And this is where it's crazy.
Like what after like the Empire takes over?
And this is where we slaughtered all of the Jedi.
Look at the children's blood.
Cool.
This is where,
this is where Darth Vader.
And for all you,
four sensitive kids,
let's see if we can find
any spooky omens in this cave.
Just like,
can you lift this object
with your mind.
Oh, you can.
Cool,
what's going to?
Yeah,
what's going to.
And how old are you?
Are you parents here?
We're going to have a talk
with them too.
Yeah, we're just,
yeah.
Let's just,
you know what I mean?
All right,
Jess,
where are you going to?
I was going,
where am I going to?
Side note,
your divorce car
should have been,
like, going to a McDonald's
or like a,
or like a,
Or a courthouse or something.
No, because they're like, they got to pass over the kids or something.
Make them happy.
Take them to a chuggy cheese and break the news.
We're taking it to a piece of place.
Oh, that's true.
When I got the news, I was just confused.
I was like, oh, okay, I kind of liked her anyways more.
And my mom is the best thing in the world.
What's happening?
When my dad and my mom broke up, they were like,
it's going to be a sad day.
And I was like, you kind of suck.
I like her more.
So I was very healthy.
Tough.
She is a godsend.
Linda Clemmons is for you.
God bless.
Linda Clemens, this one's for you.
I chose a real place, and it was originally,
it was originally Yosemite National Park.
Nice.
But.
But I think it would be more fun for these boys to go to the original first McDonald's.
Oh, in Illinois.
Yeah.
Oh, shit.
It's in, where was it?
Shout out Ray Crock.
Actually, do we shout out of Ray Crock?
I don't know what he's.
Maybe.
Maybe save that shout out of it.
Bleep the name.
Otto High Tower, the deep,
Richie and Deadpool are going to the first original McDonald's.
First original McDonald's is in, wait, no, no, it's not.
Lakewood, it's in Downey, California?
That's right, baby.
You're trying to know.
They're driving to Downey.
What you know?
What you know about Downey?
Wow, it's in Downey California.
I could have sworn it was from Illinois.
He's from Illinois.
He's from Illinois.
And he came and he managed a hamburger restaurant in San Bernard, New California.
And then he was like, cool, which is going to build one over here in Downey.
There you go.
Could you imagine auto high tower?
eating a McDonald's hamburger.
That's one of those things where it's like the European
mind can't comprehend.
These tiny burgers.
He's going to be so assent.
He's going to be a job.
Actually, we can't, we got to, we do have to
cancel Ray Crock. He donated a
255,000 of Richard Nixon campaign.
Oh, wow. All right. We're not doing that. We should have also
assumed the first McDonald's guy.
It's not a shout-out Ray Crock.
You know what? It's not the wildest leaf to think
that's not really. Making the donation to influence Nixon to
veto a minimum wage bill.
Jesus.
Okay.
Wow.
Fuck that guy.
He said, no.
No.
Get him out of there.
He said no.
Damn.
Absolutely not.
Ouch.
Well, still hit the OG McDonald's and we're having a fun time.
They're having a fun time.
Auto, the deep, Richie, and Deadpool.
Wow.

On the way
On the way there
Mine
All right I have Wolverine as

I was going to keep it. He said it.
He said it. Yeah, may as well.
May as well. For the yapper is
Sid from the bear, and my destination is Pequod's
pizza in Chicago, Illinois. So not only
are they getting divorced, they got to eat a person?
It's tough. It's okay. We're
gonna have pizza to cleanse the palate
later.
No, wow, no basil for the pizza.
Not even a little sprinkling. Yeah, should you eat him
after he eats the pizzas or then it tastes like the
You got to sprinkle him on the pizza.

It's basil.
Basel joke.
Oh.
He made a basil joke.
I was late.
I was late to the party.
You know what?
Honestly, stay late.

Wild out.
Get us banned from the venue.
It's his birthday. You might as well.
It is true.
Christ the line.
What did you say?
You love that time period
from House of the Dragon.
Make sure the tomatoes are rotten.
Bring them in.
Plague infested.
Put them in one of those
those carts.
You know you put your head through
and your arm.
The stockade.
Yikes.
Yikes. Yikes.
That's not going to be a good look.
You know what? I'll request me money on Venmo and I'll pay for this.
That's great.
I'll do it right now.

Richie for the snacks,
Deadpool as the yapper,
and the first McDonald's
in California.
Ray Crock is an opt.
Remember that.
Yes.
I didn't say I'm going to his house.
I'm going to know.
I'm not.
I said the original first make them.
That would be amazing if they went to his house.
No, it wouldn't.
Who would he let in?
I'm trying to make my team sad like yours.
Stop trying to sway them.
No, but if Dave Crock is meeting all those people, who does he like the most?
Probably Otto.
Probably all of them, because they're all white men.
That's true.
Wow, Jess.
being crazy.
Interesting.
What?
I know I'm the problem.
It's me.
It's me.
I chose a McDonald's and a Ford Bronco.
Yes, you are driving in a Ford Bronco.
It is white.
You guys said, Jessica, be creative and fan.
Make up a team.
I said, here's four white people.
I will get a load of this.
Okay, you took Sister Sage from me,
and he took Corlis.
I don't, and he took mother's milk.
I have to blame everybody else.
Yeah, you got.
I'm saying.
Wow.
O'Sha and Mayer are right there.
You know what I'm saying?
I have yet to watch the accolites.
Oh no.
We're just saying names.
We're just saying names.
We got no idea was coming.
I was like, I have yet to watch it.
So there's so many shows I have to watch right now and games to play.
I just don't have time.
But I will watch it.
We will.
And we'll get to it all.
But I think that's it.
That did it for us.

For all of us.
All of us.
All of us.
All of us here in Middivision.
We're all in this together.

Jomi, take us out of here.
Thank you, Junior Mints.
We love you so much.
Junior Mints, remember the secret code phrase with YouTube comments.
Yes.
Big booty boy racist.
Big booty boy races.
Yeah, shout out to...
It was Jomey that came up with that, Kern.
That's not true.
That's not true.
The audience will vouch for me on that one.
Roll the tape back.
Big Booty Boy races.
Shout out to Isaiah for handling us on the ones and twos.
For some reason, his favorite basketball team won, but I can't remember what the team is right now.
It's wild.
You know, I can't.
I kind of feel like he's happy for some reason, but I can't put it together.
I don't know.
He's too busy blasting this.
He's too busy blasting.
He just said some words I can't put together.
And then shout out, as always, to our producer guy who's really awesome.
I'm going to hear him call it what's it called Hershey Hunk, what they're calling him.
The Hershey Hunk these days.
Oh, my God.
That's right, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Our guy, Kermitou is Mar.
And, you know, together, together, together, everyone.
Together, together, come on, let's have some fun.
You're some haters, man.
I like the song.
High school music can do is the best one.
It's the best one. We're out of here.
I'm out of here. I'm dying.
Feels like every product claims real protein these days.
But real doesn't start on a label.
It starts at the source.
Like real California milk from California farm families,
it's real dairy delivering high-quality, complete protein,
with all nine essential amino acids to help build muscle,
give you energy, and keep you satisfied longer.
So keep it real.
Look for the seal.
Real California milk
