Welcome back to this Acticles podcast. It's a lonely day on the couch, people. It's just me and the big Seattle. Round of applause. I mean, this is how we started. Has it been a fruitful 2012? It has. It actually has.

We've been eaten. We have been eating. What's different about that in 2020? Nothing. It's always fruitful. What have you been eating? So there's these truffles right now, Lindor Truffles. They got a couple new flakes.

flavors, cherry vanilla. It's really, really good. I think I have actually a bag of those in my, they're unbelievable. All right, can I get, can I say like a, like a confession, like an eating confession? Like confessions of a fat man. Well, I've seen your fridge, but go ahead. So one thing I've been doing, I can't believe I'm going to admit this.

I've been ordering the frosting, the cream cheese, Pillsbury frosting and just taking a little swirl like every like 20 minutes. I just go in there, just a little swirl of the cream cheese frosting. It's great. It's great. It's really good. bro people used to do that in high school

like by like frosting in the can and eat it or by like cookie dough oh it's the perfect little sugar rush it's like it's kind of like coke but sugar you're good I don't you hate this how uncomfortable can we make

Zach today I don't I don't mean I don't know man listen you know how much soft control I have in my fridge we have cookies and cream ice cream we have birthday cake ice cream and we have Superman ice cream. And I've only had a teaspoon of the Superman just because nostalgia purposes only. Well, I mean, you're filling up that, is that a 2XL hoodie?

No, this is just a large. Is it really? This is just a large. Yeah, I said XL, but they sound a large. Okay. All right. It's a nice hoodie, man. Yeah, we'll talk about it later.

All right. Sounds good, man. But yeah, no, this, I'm not feeling this is a large. Is it large. Okay. Well, all right. People have been talking about what. they think they see online from you.

Once. They think you're training for something. I'm not. I didn't get the, I got the availability call. So I trained for that. Okay. Now I'm just training for life,

man. I'm just picking kids up and off the toilet, carrying up and down the stairs. I thought that's, Anthony's taking over that job from your recent IG post. He's doing all the heavy lifting nowadays, man,

trying to get Carmella up on that. And he couldn't. Carmella is dense. Actually, if we're talking about kids right now, Beanie got kicked out of preschool today. kicked out? Yeah.

Like temper tantrum full on temper tension got kicked out. The suspension. FaceTime me in the hallway. What was her, Joseph? Did you ask her about it? She just kept saying, I want to be good.

And I was like, well, then be good. And she just could not stop, like, having like this screaming attack. So I just, Jenner took the phone.

I was just bring her home. Hey, sometimes you got to, you know, you got to regroup. I've had to regroup. She okay, though? She seemed fine.

Yeah. She probably just wanted to come chill. she's new to the school thing dude is she not she didn't even make it 20 minutes in class i guess the first the first class she because she just started uh it's like a yeah that was the first time i ever heard you say taking beans to school she started going uh in the new year once a week yeah dude she's new yeah but anthony like went there was like see ya mom jena can't even leave anthony's listen anthony's different bro anthony likes the real world i just said she's not ready to go just don't even bring her.

But then she goes, she has ballet on Monday nights. No, Tuesday. No, Monday night she has ballet. There's a real life confusion, guys. Yeah, she has on Tuesday night. She has ballet. And she stands there the whole time like this in the corner.

And then after the class is over, she walks out and says how much she loved it. But what she doesn't know is that mirror that she's probably thinking as a mirror is actually a window for the parents to watch. And Jenna films are. standing there in the corner the whole time like this. And the only time she'll do anything is if the teacher holds her hand and they're supposed to be doing like a move across the dance move or dance floor.

And she just kind of walks like this next to the teacher. But she comes back and says, oh, I had so much fun. Yes. That's incredible. The psychopath. That's crazy. Oh, man. I'm wasting, freaking, like, $400 a month between school and ballet.

And she just goes there and has temper tantrums. It doesn't do anything. She's going to end up being a social butterfly. She's just, she's in her. I was like that. I hated preschool. Yeah. Maybe you became social.

I had to go to kindergarten garden twice. So we're giving you some extra, we're giving some extra content right now because we already gave you that Trey interview. You already got, you know, that was two and a half, that was two 45. That was a long one, the Trey. Trey can talk. Yeah. We got a monster episode coming this week.

If you don't, if you didn't figure it out yet, we got Naya on the couch. She's going to be available for all you tier two subscribers. And in the first part, that coveted. episode one of Vendetta's review is coming. We're finally starting that up. But we got to get caught up on Traders. So we figured we just hop in here, give you guys. 4-5-6.

Yeah, 4-5-6. Yeah. So you're welcome. If you asked for it, you're welcome. Putting that work in. Some of you guys did. And for those of you are not watching Traders, you're missing out because it's a really, really good season.

What about that, though? What do you think of the season so far as a whole in terms of enjoyment? I love watching Traders. But everyone on this cast, annoys me. Everyone? Now that Tiffany's gone. Now that Mike and Tiffany are gone.

Well, Michael annoyed me. Oh, he did? It was entertaining and annoying. I just think everyone on this cast thinks like, okay, I'll take that back. Rob from Alabama Rob. Snake Rob. Snake Rob. I like him.

He's dope. And I think he's playing an excellent game. I like how he gives zero fucks. I just can't stand almost the rest of the cast. All right. Well, we'll get into arrogant. Oh, I like Stephen.

We'll get into them individually. I like Stephen. I like Teral Lipinski, mainly just because I, I'm a big Olympics guy, whether it's winter or summer. Coming up. I love the Olympics.

Whether it's winter or summer, I went to the Olympics. Peacock, we know you guys send brands or influencers or whatever you guys call people out for the Olympics. Zach, you want to go to the Olympics,

right? Oh, I would shit my pants. I went to the summer Olympics in London. That's right. It's the best experience, one of the best experiences of my life. And I dare to say I was probably the best athlete in London at that moment. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. LeBron, Westbrook, Durant. Nothing on Zach Nichols. Nothing. I should have started for Team USA and I probably could have won the high. Sure. So we're doing episodes four. Big Olympics guy.

Four, five. We're doing episodes four, five and six of Traders. So let's just dive right in at the episode four. Wait, wait, I got a question. Yeah. Who would you, do you think TJ would be a good Traders host? Traders host? Yeah.

Do you think he could take Allen's job? No. That job is for some. First of all, they got to be across the pond. You have to be across the pond. I do like Allen, but, you know, I think there's some other good options. Gary Oldman. Nah, TJ.

Who, who's the most annoying cast member? Jam, jam, for sure. Him or Natalie? Natalie? I want to, I want to talk to her just to see if she's actually annoying or if she's just like super intense. Do you see Tiffany Roaster on that interview? Oh, no. What does she say?

So Natalie was basically like people who have won a reality TV show, she's like, we're after that high. It's not out the money. It's about the high. And Tiffany's like, well, what I did, I was America's favorite, which is much harder to do than win the show because you got to win the heart of America. And basically just like gave it to her. And I was like, good. 100%. I loved it whenever Natalie goes to Ron and is like, are you a traitor?

And Tiffany's like, girl, what? the hell is that going to do? Like, what is that going to do? Yeah. What is that going to do? Yeah, that was to me, it's like, first of all, when you do that, you look like the traitor. Like she has, like, when people are like, outwardly like, like, when you're just like, yeah, I'm a faithful. Okay, everyone says they're a faithful. Like, what makes you more convincing than everybody else saying they're a faithful? That, to me, has been the most. You got to have more tact. That, that to me, has been the most interesting part of this season, developing why, certain people get more credit for being better faithfuls

when they are fucking up more Colton, Natalie, Eric. These people are vocal and they're able to be vocal without having the scrutiny when in my opinion, that concludes the free preview of the Zach Nichols podcast.
