there's pills gotta clean out those ears well apparently it's danglediculousness so we're calling today danglediculousness right because it's ridiculousness right dangle ridiculousness yes it rolls off the tongue i think the gentleman steve dangle trivia how many seasons of ridiculousness are there oh my god this is going to be seven no are you serious no i don't know what that show is adam what's your guess it's got to be 20 got to be the answer is 36 wow because a season is just like a run of episodes it could be he probably does two a year who's who's the host rob deer deck i don't know who that is how have you never robin big do you remember the skateboarding show i remember and in chanel west coast yeah who's just there

if i showed you a picture of rob deer deck you know who that is that that girl that charlamagne the god was very mean to sorry i know that doesn't narrow it down very much but yes okay yes no i this guy you're talking about i like chanel he wears a lot of dc i reckon you know you know this person yeah yeah so what so jesse the format of the show is that they they play videos and then they react to them they react it's it's an old format in television yeah like um uh what's the what's the one america's funniest home videos uh now let's think of the one talk soup oh yeah the one with the guy from community love talk that was a great show um the one with the comedian who's like an internet comedian oh uh daniel tosh tosh daniel tosh yeah that one

that's the same format ridiculousness same thing they just react to valve videos on the internet i will do that i will steal that idea so we're we're doing danglediculousness now this is just videos from tiktok yeah this so i i got a bunch of tiktoks we're gonna run through as many as we can get through within the next 50 minutes and we're just gonna react to them all right i think this will be danglediculousness one and next year we'll bring it back here excuse me while i set my phone to steal all right let's go jesse you want to start with this one so this is a this is a steve dangle special some of them we will have to explain for the audience listening because they obviously won't have the visuals if you have the opportunity to watch this episode i encourage it

because it is a visual episode but this one you know the uh the person in this tiktok can take it away and they can make steve so upset should i read the caption sir why is atlanta an hour away from atlanta let's go you can never make a road wide enough to alleviate traffic scaling an inherently inefficient system makes the problem worse not better like if you sold oranges for example and lost 10 cents for every orange you sold selling more oranges makes your problem worse in the same way when you add a lane to alleviate traffic what you don't realize is that traffic reached a homeostasis it got so bad that other people started changing their behavior to avoid that road can we pause as soon as you make that you ever watch a tiktok and go that's not what

i'm here for i don't care how good this video is this isn't what i'm here for the fuck is homeostasis don't make me google shit in the middle of i don't know what that means the vast majority of people don't know what that means know your audience which is tiktok this isn't a fucking lecture man if if you can't appeal to people it doesn't matter what you're saying any idiot can make something complicated it takes a genius to make it simple sorry here talk about your homeopathic traffic whatever the fuck road wider the people who stayed home will start driving on that road again until it reaches the same homeostasis this is something known as induced demand it also happens because when you make a road wide enough that it's convenient you have

a parking problem but when you build out parking that's convenient you have a traffic problem parking and just say don't drive have this dysbiotic relationship the opposite of symbiosis this is due larger than part to the fact that cars that's the third or fourth word i haven't recognized look at how many people can be moved an hour in a car lane versus other forms of transportation so when you design a city and the only real option you give people is a car your Roads get wider and wider. Your city gets bigger and bigger. The average mile per trip increases.

And what you need to think about is each and every trip is a traffic-inducing trip. So if the average length of a trip is longer, you're inducing traffic for a longer period of time. That's why if you look at cities that have doubled down on cars, like L.A., Houston, Atlanta, they have the biggest roads and they have the worst traffic. All right. All right. Okay. I wouldn't do this while walking my dog. He's got a problem with traffic.

that's why we're leading yeah and i think that makes a lot of sense and here's what i want to say about that video is that video is awesome if you're a city planner uh or or you're at a uh a public counseling meeting on whether they should build another highway totally understand that i i'm with you on the fact that man i'm on tick tock for the lulls and that's it i don't care you know like i don't need a lesson although i i frankly i'll be honest with you maybe i do need a a lesson i do like my history lessons but the the anti the anti-driving anti-highway crowd while they have a point um and and mathematically speaking they're they're probably a hundred thousand million percent right without a doubt correct like across the board correct you said

something on a recent episode and you said it's okay not to care about everything and i don't know if that episode is up yet it's not but it doesn't really matter yeah it's okay not to care about everything i i respect this person they clearly have a ton of uh knowledge he seems like a really nice guy yeah like real like a weekend of a beer for sure i just don't give a shit like like i don't care i don't give a shit i don't care here's my problem this is something you're upset with every single day traffic oh he's right he's right especially in toronto here's the problem the the alternate the alternative stinks it stinks dude there's do you understand a lot of people in the greater toronto area have two commutes they have to commute there's a reason

like forget cities and parking getting bigger and bigger in the city the parking lots for the train are getting bigger and bigger and bigger if you are not at the oshawa go station before seven in the morning or at least this was the case before the pandemic i don't know if this is gates anymore then just sorry no taking the train for you and then if maybe before 7 37 45 you can drive from your house in curtis to whitby you might get one of the last parking uh lot spots to park in whitby Like, if there was another alternative that made sense, I would never drive again. Are you kidding me? But, like, driving downtown takes an hour and a half, which sucks and is unacceptable.

But if I, like, assuming the bus comes right outside my house in the middle of winter. On time. On time, which the bus is notoriously good for. Jesse, you take the bus every day. I take the bus all the time. I don't take it every day, but I take transit all the time because it's convenient for me. Yeah, for him.

For you. Yeah. For you. But Steve is several jurisdictions over. Yeah. Right? He's outside of the city two times. You know, it's like...

He goes pickering and then aging. I don't know about you rich guys who can just drive your cars around everywhere, but I care about the environment and the monetary state of our union. So I try and save as much money for everybody else as possible by using public transit. Yeah. how do you how do you feel about filling an entire gas tank full of your own farts and then going uh swimming in the coral reef yeah how do you feel about that enjoyable yeah i think the coral reef

wow yeah the real answer to traffic congestion is working from home you know here at sdpn people don't want to come in we're like great just do your work from home no man i think the real and if we need a meeting we go in person mandatory and then we set the meeting we send the invite i this bullshit about people not working as hard from home uh dude no are you kidding me people don't work hard from the office because you can't fill eight hours worth of work exactly you need to chill for like two hours to get your eight hours work no i have a great i have a great suggestion okay um going back in time 100 to 130 years and beating whoever designed toronto to death no that's not true no it was designed that's what i would do with the time machine

what happened that is that's that's uh that's because torontonians don't know their own history steve if you did you would know that toronto's transit system in the 1970s was perfectly reasonable for what the city was oh so i don't need to go back that far the problem was that your generation of your parents generation uh through city council decided that gary this is your fault decided that they would prefer not to spend money on transit and expanding the system And when we created, because remember, Toronto was quite small, but then when we created the megacity, which is what it was branded as, so it involved places like North York, Scarborough, Etobicoke, that were all separate jurisdictions, we did nothing for the people that live in those areas to have things expanded. So you're seeing now in Scarborough where they're trying to expand the subway one stop. Which was not part of Toronto.

that's right but but only now 30 years after the megacity are we trying to put one subway stop in and the problem is that these areas are already built they're already done yeah so so here you gotta take a 20 minute commute so you don't want to go back to the 1850s when there was like 15,000 people here it's not their fault you want to you want to go back to the 70s and tell your parents to to spend a little bit more on their taxes and and get some public transit and i'm sure that'll go over great i'll tell you this anybody that tells you that they can't build transit in a pre-existing city which is the argument we get a lot here in toronto has never been to london a city that's been around for more than 2 000 years and somehow they have a fantastic metro

and i think i think it's it's it's uh it's uh when we talk about we talk about this is a nerdy ass conversation i love driving i fucking love driving yeah i love it at all times i even love it in traffic you love driving or do you love podcasts there's a difference i love driving and i love podcasts i do like my time on my own but i'm with jesse if it's easier for me to get to let's say the only reason i have to go downtown anymore is like scotia bank you know when i'm going to my mastercard seats uh at scotia bank arena if i could take transit down there i'm taking it because it sucks taking anything else it sucks to going in an uber because it's it the traffic is crazy i'm not definitely not going to drive and spend 40 bucks on parking so excuse me

while i modify a john mulaney bit but i was like i'm not capable of murder and then i went to stockholm and saw that they have like 20 different subway lines and i went oh okay yeah this is i think i might be this is a fault of the 70s 80s and 90s toronto that did nothing to the transit system oh that's that's what happened well let's go back 50 years and write those wrongs wait we can't we're simply fucked great glad i watched we can write that wrong we're just have to we have to pay for it that's all jesse i'm gonna play a different video yeah that was a lot all right new one who's this tiktok seems sleepy do i know one of my biggest pet peeves i know you know oh i know canadians know when they see this what this means i know what she's gonna say

what means my fucking icing is stuck to the bag oh no oh yeah yeah right on right on cue no no Adam, you're gonna Can you please do a good job of describing What just happened in the video Okay, so she has a donut And she has a bag And the donut got warm And the donut is a dipped donut

So like a chocolate dip And the bag got warm And probably against the coffee And that means that the icing from the donut Which is the best part Got stuck to the bag and i've always wondered i've always wondered why we can't come up with a better system for donuts yeah i've always wondered that you know can we you know that you know who does a good job of it

is any burger joint that gives you a burger but it's in that square little container oh yeah with a little for a donut yeah do that for a donut the um the big mac box yes yeah exactly yeah i feel like that's what we need to be doing for donuts and then i think the problem is solved yeah that's well like you know how like we we also as consumers need to adapt like you know how we figured out they were putting way too much ice in our in our pot and then we said hey no ice because we're fucking geniuses and economists yes when it comes to that you need a little bit of ice yeah well you need a little bit of ice but you know you got to be specific you got to say just a little bit ice light ice yeah light ice yeah why not just say donut not in the bag that's a thing you can

do is that a thing you can do yeah you can so you know the the little tissue that they use to grab your donut yeah i see i see people all the time ask just for it like that oh yeah that's really smart yeah see there's a way so these are these are the things we need to find ways around this i like this she's right i feel for her but there are there are solutions out there see we just solved the problem we just solved the problem guys what's your favorite donut shop we did it um there's a little bakery up the street from my house yeah i think it's just called see the problem with small towns is the bakery is just called the bakery like it's literally just like called doug's bakery i don't even yeah yeah and the sign's a little bit old it's a little bit

and like soft frisbees so they don't you know when they inevitably like hey i'm going to teach you to throw a frisbee and my daughter who has zero coordination is like her hand goes up five minutes after the frisbees hit her in the face um uh you know that that kind of stuff like that is it's amazing for that like sidewalk chalk and coloring books and stickers man also loves dollar store stickers the gt boutique giant tiger giant tiger yeah the dollar m is good for kids stuff because kids cycle through things so quickly that you don't you can't invest in kids stuff because they're going to be done with it in like a month yeah so if you can get the the two dollar shit like it's perfect it's the best by the way if you're uh if you're a parent or soon to be don't

buy expensive furniture not until your kid's at least six or seven years old don't don't do that oh no do not buy investment pieces until later because there's too many crayons and markers and sticky hands and and peanut butter you just don't need it you don't need it we had two 80 pound dogs and we didn't have any kids yet but we wanted to and my wife wanted like an off-white couch i was like what's wrong with you yeah yeah no that's so anyway we didn't get it yeah no i think you put your foot down in the right situation yeah i was just like now normally when oh i'll get down i'll get the cleaner stop normally when he puts his foot down it doesn't work no you don't win every argument my friend no but that was every the majority of them i thought you got it i was i

peanut butter would be banned in your home well can't have any she doesn't bring it to school we have uh we have the um i don't know if you know this but uh you can't get it at the dollar store unfortunately uh because i used to get my peanut butter from the dollar store because i am that cheap and i don't mind uh but the there is no no peanut peanut butter that tastes like peanut butter and they give you stickers so you put it on the lunch bag or the lunch thing so that if the teacher spots it it says hey by the way there's no peanut butter in this you don't put it on the sandwich but you put it inside the lunch box leo will just have a spoon of peanut butter yeah he'll ask for a spoon of peanut butter or a spoon of untella do you know what women do that

unless it's closed in my room mom and dad but other than that yeah the way your house is right now as you are sitting here in toronto and it's back in ajax it is not how it's going to be when adam and i come over no it's going to look like we just bought a new build it's house of home house at home yeah we might throw out all our and that psychological terror that inflicts on people it's so weird like and i'm guilty of it too i'm saying a hundred percent my place isn't how it looks when people come over i would guarantee that most couples couples probably fight the most when you know you got you know there's there's some there's tension in the family like let's say there's bills you know somebody's not doing well and when people are

coming over those are the those are the fights that people have and it's it's funny so natalie is perpetually like people are coming over even though nobody's coming over so she is perpetually like what if somebody saw this and i'm like oh what what if man what what if what would happen what could happen and she's i don't even want to think about it i'm like nobody's over she's like but if somebody could as soon as i get home i'm slamming the door behind me and i'm saying to my wife we're never going to adam and natalie's ever again that's right that fear that natalie has it's kind of it's creeped up on me now that because we have there's a curling place near where we live and my girlfriend's mom curls there so like occasionally every couple months we get a

random hey i just finished curling i'm gonna pop by oh no if the place isn't clean and her and my girlfriend's mom's coming over i'm like i'm panicking right from the bond spiel to the bonfire now i had it all cleaned up now the place has to be at least presentable at all moments because i might get a 10 minute heads up that there's a pop by after curling see we don't do the one thing i'll say is that uh i don't do poppins well and my wife does not do poppins you gotta you gotta schedule time i don't do poppins with my family there is a there is a distinct boundary there if you pop we will just well if people try to pop it i'll be like i'm not home and i don't i don't like a poppin do not pop in don't pop in no poppin you have a closed

door policy yes absolutely so steve's in the neighborhood and he's like adam i'm him around the corner can i come up we'll go for a coffee oh he's not coming not coming up i'll tell you why i'll tell you why i tell you why it's because it's because i want to retain that little bit of of peace that i have no because because life right now is kind of crazy you know we got a we got our own business i got a four and a half year old i'm divorced did you know that i don't think that means anything you're mentioning that for the first time there's so much going on then i'm like if i am at home alone or am i i'm at home with natalie or i'm at home with natalie and everly that is our time yeah and you're interrupting that you're all seeing if i got

time for you otherwise we'll get in the calendar thank you very much you're the living embodiment of that sebastian maniscalco bit i don't know if i've heard that one it's i've i know but i know being italian you have to know his bits off i have to but but like he said this bit i mean the the annoying thing about italian comedians is they'll be like hey have you ever followed by something that you remember vividly and sebastian maniscalco was like yeah you know when you were younger like people would just pop by he'd be together with family and then someone would pop by oh joey's here joey come on in pull up a seat here get joey some coffee and like i remember that at my known as house

oh yeah we'd be having a family get together and then more people would come over because they were in the neighborhood and now i can't even imagine see i think that's a part of italian culture i could tell you as a wasp we don't do that my parents don't play like like there's a reason i said my nona's house and not my grandma and grandpa's friends the show like the bane of your existence i think where their doors are just unlocked and you're running around and so if we were all single with their shoes on in our 20s with their shoes yeah that's an american thing get what kind of godless behavior americans with the shoes on i don't know like bring in all that dirt from outside into your home we have we don't even have a outdoor shoe policy at our offices

USA, Cedric Highsmith, straight fucking gas. No change-up, no curveball, nothing but fucking gas. I love that guy. I've been teaching Leo how to throw, and I've taught him to yell, straight gas, whenever he throws. And when he hits the baseball, he goes daddy that was a moon shot and i go yeah it was leo if it if it goes low he goes that was a great hit but if it goes up moon shot daddy and i'm like yes it was kid you know what i like

about leo's swing too he's got a nice flat swing he comes when he does hit it oh yeah comes through the ball like some like that what they teach you in baseball and jesse would know this better than i do is not come in at an angle you want it you want it it's it just comes whoosh it's beautiful Oh, he knocked over the tree. See how great it was? It knocked over this Christmas tree. That was all Leo. He's my inspiration.

Leo, I always teach him left foot forward because he's a righty. And like, because he just stands, like if the T is right there, he just stands square to the T, which you can't do. No, no. But it's great when I teach him something

and he's like, why is dad telling me to do this? And then he takes a swing and cranks the damn thing. And he's like, my dad is a genius and I'm going to the bigs. and when i make it there i'm gonna buy my dad a cottage and then we're gonna buy the white house yeah we've been doing a lot of mr dean lately when does it end when do your kids start resenting you uh leo's three so uh four yeah everly everly has already hit me with a couple fine oh no and i'm like i'm like we don't talk to me like that oh i'm like you can go do that to your friends but

Starting with just $1 all day Every day now until December 31st You gotta try Breakfast at A&W At participating A&W locations in Ontario Do you want this TikToker's opinion on Tall girls and tall guys

I want to hear your opinion on Tall girls and tall guys Yeah let's go First, she is a relatively tall girl, and this is her gripe with the way the dating pool has been going. I'm going to need the short girls to start dating the short kings. Please. I'm begging you. If you're 5'4", a guy that's 5'9 is still 5 inches taller than you.

5 inches taller than me is 6'5". Holy shit. Okay, 5'9 might not be tall for the earth, but he's tall for you. Just do me a solid, man. Stop snatching up all the prime real estate. i saw a girl that's five two dating a guy that's six eight how does that even work you're gonna give that man back problems like is he squatting down to hug you like i squat to hug my toddler like please i six three is like tall for me so i have a very limited pool to choose from here

date the short kings please it's easier for you it's impossible for me thank so she wants uh i I believe the term is D-1 children. We're waiting for a scholarship here. She is six feet tall. And you know what's funny, though? I know a few really tall girls. Almost all of them are dating ridiculously tall men. and their kids come out and they like look cutesy and everything with their little oshkosh overalls

but i know when they grow up it's gonna be like now we go in we kill no more talk like friggin uh whatever that movie is i don't know i only know the line from south park but they're they're going to be six foot 14 yeah probably and you and you could tell so i think i understand where she's coming from like should my wife be with me she's five foot nothing i'm under six feet tall but i'm ten and a half inches taller than her all right what i'm i'm nearly a foot taller than her yeah really whenever sl gives me a hug wow right at the chest level she's five she's actually she's five foot nothing and a half now i didn't realize it was that big of a gap now the person most guilty of this is is jesse's partner what's that uh because how hogging how tall is hogging you

according to that girl probably five four and you are six four yeah or a straight up foot yeah she this this tiktoker the gabby is a person that she's complaining about yes yeah she took me from the tall girl dating pool what's your problem gabby yeah this is exactly what she doesn't want and from her perspective i 100 get that i get it because like that's the biggest minority would be tall girls right so like and then so their dating pool is so much smaller i also i also want to say this um it's okay to date somebody a little shorter than you it's okay no that's a hot take i think it's okay i think it's okay now i didn't realize how much it had become a thing until i got divorced and went back on the dating apps there were girls that were like if you're like

in the first sentence of their bio on like bumble or hinge you'd be like if you're not six feet tall swipe left i'm not interested that is a crazy thing to say girls don't want guys that are shorter than them and i think you wouldn't believe what people say publicly on there oh i know like it's like there were there are the girls that were like if you're a single father i'm not interested oh wow and i would rather be to be honest with you i'd rather know i'd rather know i'd rather you tell me like i don't i don't take offense to that if you don't want because i get what comes with that there is potential for like do i even like their kid do i like the way they parent is their baby mama drama is there all this all the other stuff that you don't want to deal with i

get it i get it no i i don't one of my favorite subreddits is the tinder subreddit so i can read what people write what that's like like jesse like years ago before you met gabby you were on tinder and i was shoulder tindering because i was like this is fascinating it's a good time and i wake up every day thankful that i missed out on that shit because that's it seems like a nightmare it can be fun it seems horrible people make people make it worse i think than it is i i if i've always had the opinion if you don't like me i don't like you either like why would i waste my time on on somebody that doesn't like me there's plenty of people that will and and so i think people take rejection on dating apps personally where they shouldn't because it's like if if

you're not a fit you're not a fit um and it's you know what's funny is is dating apps have come up become a little bit like facebook marketplace and i don't know if you've ever tried anything on sell anything on marketplace which i've done tons of times people be like hey and you're like hey and they're like you want to go out you're like sure when never hear from them again that happens all the time i thought you meant like you know hey i'm looking for someone who's six foot two best i could do is five foot five like that's that to me is the dating equivalent of facebook market i'll throw this at you natalie is five nine i'm five eleven so when she puts on you made it what's that you barely made barely made it when i when she puts on heels she's taller than me

and some guys what's that how tall are her damn well she's like you know a two inch three inch heel adam you gotta you gotta put on those kanzuri shoes i guess so yeah that's right i don't care i think it's great uh i've always dated women that were about or close to my height i've always like every girlfriend i've had has been tall um yeah now that you mention it you know like every single one that you've met uh so i don't i guess i've never really thought about it but maybe maybe i'm like her maybe i only want tall people too i never thought of it that way did you put your height in your profile no no but they'll just ask wow they'll ask they'll ask what you do um if if somebody comes at you and people do this and they ask you what you make uh then it's an automatic

like unmatched goodbye uh but it it certainly uh the other problem for me was that both times i was on people be like oh i listened to your show and i'd be like oh and then cool thanks for me that was an i i feel bad for those people it was an automatic unmatch because i felt like not because that they were bad people but i just would prefer not to not to have to get that out of the way first i i am comfortable saying i can't explain why that's weird but it is thank you very much take care yeah yeah does that make sense yep i just feel like i i just don't like there was something about it and i couldn't i could never put my finger on it nope yeah anyway all right um last one here oh this is a good one uh hey it's it's steve and i'm adam oh no oh boy how do we

approach this okay so this is early uh and we hear that you tom play in men's leagues four nights a week which is four nights admirable that's him that's somebody who goes hard uh-huh but what we didn't understand was carly also says that you come home covered in victory glitter all the time and i didn't know what victory glitter was and we'll get to it in a second and we we thought that was interesting and steve was like well people who come home in victory glitter that usually means the strip club right well i don't i don't think that's what i called it adam i think i called it the rippers right which is the name of your team and i'm just i didn't listen tom I think Carly sounds very understanding.

Yeah, she sounds like an awesome girlfriend. Awesome? Yeah. Or fiance? It doesn't specify. Possibly wife. No idea. Possibly friend.

Possibly sister? We don't know. We don't know. Also, this is supposed to be a pep talk. Oh, it's supposed to be a pep talk? I don't know. Do you need motivation? You're playing hockey for nights a week.

Yeah, dude. Like, okay, so you're in the best shape you could possibly be. As an adult. It's just not possible. Oh, I think I know what he wants. You've got to grab that stick, also known as a pole. You ever heard it referred to as a pole? Yes.

And you've got to grind one out, right? And you've got to have lots of shots. It's important to have lots of shots. And I'm sure at the end of it, you'll end up in the champagne room as the victors of your playoffs. so tom go oilers go oilers and go get you some victory glitter i didn't know what victory glitter was so anyway book adam and i on cameo yeah so explain what that was so we got a cameo request you guys are on cameo first of all we are on cameo adam and i and uh we got a we got a request

and it was i'm reading through the request and i'm like oh okay this is a joke yeah the end of it because it was well we we can't read it we don't have it in front of us but it was basically like oh my boyfriend comes home he plays hockey four times a week so we're like wow holy shit yeah like that they're like professional athletes don't play hockey four times a week and um whenever they win uh they have victory glitter and he comes home covered in glitter four times a week and i'm like okay sure sounds like he goes to the rippers and then as soon as i saw the team name is the rippers i went okay we're being fucked with yeah well steve actually i think for that one steve said to me he's like i think we're being punked here and i said whatever let's just commit to it and

go yeah that was the one you were like do we want to do this because you were because you can turn him down yeah so we almost steve was like i don't know if we should do this one that cameo was submitted by justin fisher no social media manager here at sdpn and he thought he'd get you guys to make a a cameo for this guy who's clearly secretly going to the strip club four times a week by the way not very secret not very james harden holy shit oh my god well done just and uh you wanted me to play that. So yeah, well done, Justin. He is going to be invoicing you guys for the cameo money.

So... I guess it's a business expense. You would like it back. I like it. Alright, are we wrapping there? Alright, there's more holiday episodes coming your way. We love you and we hope you're having a fantastic holiday season. I don't even really know what day this is being released, so I can't even say Merry Christmas
