Between April 1971 and September 1972, six young black girls were snatched off the streets in Washington, D.C. This child was laying on the side of the road. The person said, I murdered your daughter. The killer believed that he may have been seen. I will admit the others when you catch me if you can. Signed Freeway Phantom. Listen to Freeway Phantom on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to This Is Important, a production of iHeart Radio, the show where we talk about
Starting point is 00:01:39 all that is oh so oh so very important. Today on This Is Important, I wouldn't lay it down and then get on top of it and surf it. Sweetheart, I burn toast. Fuck you. We're talking here. Fuck you. Got a buddy. Coolest guy you ever met. Got himself a ninja. And here we go. There's, you got a snack? I mean, I got some rap snacks. Dude, you got rap snacks? I got rap snacks at 7-eleven. Are you kidding me? What do you got? Who you get? You get some boozy chips? Some little boozy? Notorious B.I.G. Hang on, let me grab it. Oh yeah. Yeah. Talk amongst yourselves. What's the Notorious B.I.G. snack? Macaroni and cheese. Is that what it is? Who's getting the money? Who's getting the
Starting point is 00:02:30 money for for when they're caput? Their estate. Their estate, yeah. Yeah, the estate gets all their dough. Mrs. Christopher Wallace. Is that how that works? Yeah. Guys, I'm back. We got Notorious B.I.G. Cookout barbecue sauce potato chips. Oh, wow. Those look so yummy, dude. And that's the icon series. Now, those aren't rap snacks. Those are rap icon chips. That's a different brand. No. No, it says rap snacks right on it, bud. Oh, does it? Yeah. Underneath? Yeah. Okay, so it's the icon edition. I think this is the second wave of rap snacks chips because there was a first generation. Yeah. But you know, those rappers have kind of like nobody wants to eat Mac 10 chips. Hey, speak for yourself, man. Wow. That's true. I mean, I'm a big West Side Connection fan. I would
Starting point is 00:03:20 love to dig in, but the kids, they want Cardi B, sour cream. Well, didn't they have a Migos run? I want some WAP snacks. They want some Wasabi WAP. WAP snacks. Wasabi WAP is fucking good. I like that. It's spicy. WAP snacks. Slippery when wet. Dude. I got a slurpee when I was there. Oh, dude. Oh, treat yourself, dude. Dude, so good. You did 7-Eleven right. Do you remember back in the day when that we, there was the 7-Eleven down the street from our house and we would take fun little walkabouts and the four of us would get together and take a fun little walkabout and walk down to the 7-Eleven and get ourselves some energy slurpees? Yeah. Do you remember those? Absolutely. Where was your guy 7-Eleven? I remember your AMPM.
Starting point is 00:04:10 The 7-Eleven was at the Packard House down on like Packard and Hauser. Copy that. Yeah. I used to save up quarters just to snap on a big gulp. Me, Kyle and Blake used to live at this house that directly across the street. There was this cool dude named G-Money who was just the fucking best. He was dope. He ran a car wash out of his garage and he did great, great work. Honestly, great work. I had the Ford Focus Wash there multiple times. Detail. You did it multiple times? Oh, yeah, dude. How much did that cost? That was when I treated myself to that kind of stuff. Oh, wow. Now you don't. Now you have five cars and you don't treat yourself to that. That's my Saturday morning washing them. Oh, gosh.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Yeah, nice. No, he was relatively priced well. I think he gave me a neighbor discount. It was like 20 bucks, something like that. No vacuum though. No vacuum. Oh, yeah. He doesn't get inside unless it's to put a brick of cocaine in there for you. Hello. That was the special. That was the special. Oh, I never even thought about that. Do you remember right around the corner at that place we used to eat called Lucy's? Yes. It was like a Mexican restaurant, but we get cheeseburgers there for like three bucks. So badass. Good call. I think there's a bunch of Lucy's. They all have like numbers, like Lucy's number 21, 22, something like that. Is that right or? Yeah, there's a handful of Lucy's
Starting point is 00:05:27 out there. I just remember they gave me diarrhea. And that's it. All right. Cheat it up. Oh, wow. They gave me diarrhea. That neighborhood was cool. I saw my first dead body in that neighborhood. I saw it in the Domino's parking lot. Like it was a dead person or a murdered person? I don't know what it was exactly, but it was a body and they were in the process of covering up with a sheet when I drove past. And then I stopped and I got out of my car and stared for a little bit because I'm a rubber necker. You're a stop and pull over and go peek under the fucking sheet guy. I was like, let me see the body. The dude likes to help, man. The guy is a neighborhood watch over here.
Starting point is 00:06:15 I am, dude. Yeah. Sorry, Jersey. Move over. There's a new neighborhood watch in town. That's fine. I remember that was the inspiration for the character trait that my character took. I appreciate it. Gonder's Holmvik. Beautiful. Yeah, that neighborhood rocked, man. The 7-11 was right there. Yeah, that ruled. G-Money had a, he had a like a necklace, if I remember right, with a G on it with like the slashes to make it look like it was a money symbol. Like a G with two vertical lines going through it? With two vertical lines going down through it. That's tight. Yeah, that's hard. And he goes by G-Money. Right.
Starting point is 00:06:51 It was pretty, it was pretty cool. And he would always watch us. We would film our hilarious comedy videos, mail-order-comedy.com. Hello. And we would film the videos. And then when we went to move, it was an awesome thing where he came up to us and he was like, yo, y'all moving? And we're like, yeah, man, you know, we're gonna, we're gonna move to the valley, get a bigger place. And he goes, y'all, so good luck with your videos. And we're like, oh, thanks. And he goes, I guess I'll be seeing y'all on Broadway. Yeah, not yet. Yep. And we were all like, what? Because he for sure thought we were musical theater students because we were always in costume and
Starting point is 00:07:29 singing, singing, singing, just song and dance men. That's also why Blake said, I thought it was Broadway or Bust in that song that we played. That's true. That was a reference to G-Money. Thought it was Broadway. Yeah, I thought it was. And Adam, what happened when you went back driving through the neighborhood and saw him like several years later? Oh, yeah, that was probably only like maybe two years ago. And I drove past and he, I was like, G-Money. And he looked at me like he was about to fucking murder me.
Starting point is 00:07:59 Just had no recollection. Zero recollection on his face. It was just like, how do you know me? Keep it moving, motherfucker. It was not proper. He was still washing cars, though. I'm like, yeah, you must have a good business. Remember the type of cars that would roll through to? Hell, a nice. Yeah, there would be like Rolls Royce phantoms and shit, like really nice cars. Awesome motorcycles, too. I mean, G-Money, name you can trust. Yeah. Yeah. G-Money. He's G-Money. I'm telling you, you did a great job. Watch the focus right up, man. Blake, didn't you get like you got your stuff stolen and he like got it back for you or something? Yeah, that's right. I had like, you know,
Starting point is 00:08:36 a Ford Escape, but I had a nice sound system in it. Right. You have to. Yeah, we had a big trunk rattler in the back. By the way, that Ford Escape, that wasn't like an old, that wasn't like a beater. That was a pretty nice newer Ford Escape. New car, yeah. Yeah, it wasn't like the engine was not big or anything, but the, it sounded good. Kyle always taught me that. Hey, you could escape. Gotta have the thumbs in the trunk. Yeah, it doesn't matter how your car runs if you got a good system. Dude, yeah. You got to be bumping. I also think that's just our generation. I don't think like 20 year old kids are soupy just because car stereo speakers are just pretty good now. Yes. They've come a long way. Yes. Like it used to truly suck when we were kids,
Starting point is 00:09:23 when we were kids, they like cassette player would skip. They like truly sucked. So you had to put in your two 15 inch sub wafers in the back. I definitely went through the phase of like just loading up the trunk with like 12s and 14s and stuff and just connecting as much as possible. But I did find that the music sounded so good with just two eights. There you go. Two eights. Two eights. Sure. I'm a stock guy myself. I appreciate the effort that they put in at general mode. Wait, so you had a woofer in your trunk and yeah, I had it. I had it in the back of the trunk. And yeah, one, one day came out and the back window was broke out and it was like,
Starting point is 00:10:05 oh man, somebody stole my shit. That's not exactly right. I thought, didn't you guys like hear it happening? And then you got your like Katana out. Oh my God. I kind of remember that. Don't skip over like the big meat of the story. Well, to be fair, Adam, I have completely blocked this out because it was very scary and sad for me. Well, what happened was it was happening right outside my window and I'm such a heavy sleeper that I didn't wake up for any of this. And then the next morning you guys were like, well, Jesus, I can't believe you slept through all that. And I'm like, well, what happened? And you're like, I almost murdered someone with a Katana sword last night. I'm like, what?
Starting point is 00:10:42 With my decorative Katana blade. Yeah, full disclosure, I almost murdered someone with a Katana blade means I pulled it off the wall and watched him steal my son. That blade was unsharpened for sure. Didn't even open the door and like give like a, get out of here. Like, get out of here. Oh, so he was like, yo. He thinks there's like a cowardly dog locked inside the house. Blake, is that when the dude like picked up the piece of tan bark and pretended he was on the phone? Yes, man. Well, he was a total tweaker. Right. But that's why I mean, like, yeah, he pretended he was like talking on a piece of tan bark and because he came back because he couldn't
Starting point is 00:11:21 get the speaker through the window. It was too big. It was too, you had to open it. There was too much bass in there. So then he walked away and pretended he was on the phone while talking to a piece of tan bark and then like, which is just wood and then walk back and paced back and forth and he used to make it a quick call. Yeah. How does he do this? Yeah. Yeah. So basically we, you know, we're like, went across the street like, Mr. G money, sir, will you help us? He's like, Oh, I'll take care of this. Wait, I'm sorry. But did he get, did was stuff stolen? This is the worst. This has the potential to be the greatest story in our podcast history. I know I'm setting up the story and Blake just keeps bulldozing right
Starting point is 00:11:59 past. I don't want to talk about it. Can we change this up? I mean, you're like, and now we're here and you don't want to talk about something that happened 15 solid 15 years ago. Adam, what's your version of the story? Cause I truly don't remember this because Blake was just like, yeah, we could, he couldn't get it out. So then he was talking on tan bark. Yeah, man. And then I talked to G money and he said, I'll get it back. I'm like, so wait, did someone actually steal something? No, nothing was taken, but my window was broken. So then what is G money talking about? He just set the bro straight. G money must have been the guy that came out, right? He must have been like, stop. No, no, no, no. Hang the fuck on this is so bad. He stole that something was
Starting point is 00:12:39 stolen from your car. No, he couldn't get it out. He broke a window. Oh, what was it then? Then when someone stole something from us and G money came and he's like, uh, yo, I'll get it back for you, not in my neighborhood. No, that was all you're getting some stories. That was no, this is not the same story. This is the story when we were playing wee bowling and having some cocktails and smoking resin balls, the good old days and with a fucking knock, knock, knock, knock, knock. And we were like, who the fuck is coming over? And it was the lady who came into our house. And we were like, what happened? And she was like, I just got robbed. They took my laptop at gunpoint at sought off shotgun point. Right. Yeah. And we were fucking high out of our minds playing
Starting point is 00:13:23 wee bowling and wee golf. And we were like, get in here, come in here, have a beer, like just chill out. What's up? And we just kind of locked the door and like watched. And that's probably when we pulled the katana off the fucking wall. And we're serious. Like, because we're like, we're going to protect you. We are very, we're warriors that we will protect you. It's a good thing you guys had that sword. Yeah, it was everything. It seems like it came in handy a bunch. Yeah, it was a decorative blade. But then the, then the next, like after that, she left, she went back to her car and then somehow G money figured out about it. And he was like, not in my neighborhood. If I find the motherfucker who did this, I'm a barium.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Allegedly. And it was like, whoa. And then a sought off shotgun fell out of his pants. Yeah. And then he was cleaning a sought off shotgun. Allegedly. I also clean guns. This is a car. Allegedly. Those were the good old days. That's good though. You want that due to the neighborhood to be like, I'm watching. Hell yeah. I remember the one time that I made him mad because we got drunk one night and like Adam had an old pair of like Air Force ones and we're like, dude, it would be hella funny if we just throw them up on the, on the, like telephone wires and hang them there. So funny, dude. Yeah. Funniest joke. Fucking. What a hilarious joke. You still got it. It's all in a Nelly video or something. And then the next morning we came out
Starting point is 00:14:39 and they were down and G money basically was like, don't do that again. It doesn't mean what you think it means. So don't do it. And we're like, okay. Yes. It means old shoes, right? Yeah. That's what you do with the old ones. I still don't know what that means. Exactly. I don't either. No, I did. I dare not ask. I thought it meant somebody got killed there and you take their shoes off and you chuck them up on the, on the wires. That could be. See it. Now we know. Shit. Thank you, Dursey. You're the G money of our crew, Dursey. Hey, let me tell you on the country club golf course when I was growing up, there were just a few shoes in the trees. Definitely not something to joke about. I apologize. I apologize for that. You're doing
Starting point is 00:15:14 just, let's hold off on the takebacks and apologies. You got to save that apology. You can't be dropping that apology this quickly. That's, you got to save that for the end, my man. Yeah, we've got a format. I apologize for apologizing early. Like, well, you just fucked up again. Well, I'm going to have more. So just don't worry. I'm sorry for a damn year, everything you do. You're still doing it. I hate my life. I remember right after we signed the lease, I go, well, why is it seems like there's a lot of old homes in this neighborhood, but our house is like a brand new house. It was like a prefab brand new house. Yeah. And I'm like, why is that? And they're like, well, it was the house that was here before
Starting point is 00:15:53 was burnt down. Oh, it exploded. Huh? No, I think it was burnt down in the riots. And it was just like a smoldering trash heap for like a solid like 15 years. And then we moved in. Not like a meth bathtub explosion. No, I don't think so. That'd be sick. It was dope though. That place was cool. That's on a lot. That's the backdrop for a lot. That's the backdrop for our startup for sure. Like all the sketches. One more time. That's the backdrop for our startup for all of our like early sketches. Like we're shot in that house. Is there like a plaque outside there? Should be. We should go put one. Should be. Dude, every time you drove up the driveway, you'd scrape the shit out of your car like no matter what you were driving.
Starting point is 00:16:36 It was so annoying too because it was just a single driveway. So there was four of us living there. Tandem. Tandem. Parking's the worst when you have roommates. Yeah. Luckily, I never had a job where I had to leave in the morning. It was a lot of you guys having to be like, Adam, just give me your keys. Blake, do you remember when you were like, when you're like, okay, I got to go to work at BJ's and I had to back my car out and I was going slow because it was a blind driveway and you just kind of went at whatever speed you felt like it and just hit my car straight off. Backed right into you. Well, I was nervous. I thought I was going to be late to work and you know me. I'm a number one worker. Yeah. All right. We were all just going to say
Starting point is 00:17:19 that. Exactly. Yeah. Number one worker. Tip of the tongue. Oh, you did have your hair all tucked in at that point because you were supposed to get a haircut at BJ's, but you refused to get a haircut. BJ's had a rule which was extremely sexist that men's hair couldn't touch their shoulders and they couldn't have like ponytails either. Men couldn't have sexy, flowing, long, luscious locks. But if you're a woman, you can let it rock. You could just let it. Yep. You could have a ponytail but men couldn't. Whoa. Now, was there any sort of rule against how long your pubic hair could be? I think like it got to a point where I was spoken to. Yeah. Yeah. And you shaved it because number one worker. It's hanging off the bottom of your shorts. They're like, okay. So
Starting point is 00:18:03 what was your solution? Because Blake, you had just grown your hair down to your shoulders. Yeah. So I wasn't quite ready to cut my hair because it, you know, I was starting to book those Starbucks hands commercials. And so I decided every shift to wake up about a half hour early and Bobby pin it up. So it kind of looked like I was rocking like. But not up. No, fold it in. Yeah. Folded it underneath. So it looked like a big mushroom. You looked absolutely insane. James Madison, the president. Yeah, you do look like a, like it was a powdered wig. We have to post that on the pod important Instagram. I'll try to look for those pictures. You did it in an episode. No, right? Yeah, I did. Yeah. Yeah. Oh man, how humiliating. And like I was delivering to
Starting point is 00:18:53 like sororities and stuff. I felt like a damn fool. Yeah. That was the dude who backed into me full bore and just poked his head out the car. I was like, sorry. Sorry, brother. I was shook, man. I was shook. Hi, I'm David Eagleman. I have a new podcast called Inner Cosmos on iHeart. I'm a neuroscientist and an author at Stanford University.

On my new podcast, I'm going to explore the relationship between our brains and our experiences by tackling unusual questions so we can better understand our lives and our realities. Like, does time really run in slow motion when you're in a car accident? Or can we create new
Starting point is 00:19:49 senses for humans? Or what does dreaming have to do with the rotation of the planet? So join me weekly to uncover how your brain steers your behavior, your perception and your reality. Listen to Inner Cosmos with David Eagleman on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Last season, millions tuned into the Betrayal podcast to hear a shocking story of deception. I'm Andrea Gunning, and now we're sharing an all new story of Betrayal. Ashley Lytton was helping her husband set up a business Venmo account when she discovered a terrible secret. I scrolled down, and that's when I saw a hidden folder, and I opened it. What the hell did I just see?
Starting point is 00:20:42 I was scared that he was coming home. What Ashley discovered that day was a secret so dark she feared for her life. She was like, oh my god, I gotta get out of the house. He's gonna find out that I've seen this, he's gonna come kill me. Listen to season two of Betrayal on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Yeah, you're bad, right? I have a good record.
Starting point is 00:22:25 I have an excellent driving record. But like, if you're ever like, hey, we're leaving from the same place, I'll meet you at this other place in 10 minutes because it takes 10 minutes to get there. You'll be there in 25 minutes, correct? We're talking about my sense of direction and how fast I drive. Yes, I'm cautious and I never know where I'm going. Yeah. Yes, it's the second part. Yeah, I'd say Blakey drives like an elderly woman. Yeah, right. Like a little old lady. I'm not a pedal to the metal guy. But you're also like, I feel like I've seen you just be like, I can imagine you just going past your exit and being like, that was the exit. Oh yeah, that happens a lot. Just going to keep going. And whoop, that was another exit. Well, you'd think it wouldn't happen
Starting point is 00:23:07 because you go so goddamn slow, you'd think you'd see it coming. Yeah, if you're cautious, you're like, what was that sign? I mean, that's happened multiple times when we're going to shoot at a location or something and we're like, oh, we're just all going to drive ourselves. It'll take 10 minutes to get there and we'll just sort of follow each other and get there. And then all of a sudden you just see Blake just turn, just take a turn and you're like, well, none of us are taking that turn. Taking the safer route. Yeah, yeah, don't get on the freeway. My GPS says there's a pothole. What is that? Yeah, how did you get by while you were delivery driving? Like how did you? That's my concern. Right. Guys, this was the time of map quest. Okay. The pizza, I know, but
Starting point is 00:23:48 the pizza never got there on time, did it? I mean, I got tips. The tips don't lie. Well, tips are mandatory. Not at UCLA. Do you have the guts to double park and run up in? Or were you like, I don't want to do that. I'm just going to look for a spot. I will say when I was delivering pizzas, I lost like the safety side of me. I would pull some maneuvers. It was a very frustrating job. It drove me insane. Yeah, for sure. It's not an easy job. Brink of tears. So I guess I didn't remember how what a bad driver you were. Not a bad driver. Not a bad driver. No, not bad. Just pretty bad. It just shouldn't shouldn't be pretty bad if you're trying to get from A to B at a timely matter like bad if you're Yes, bad at getting somewhere with any sort of timely fashion.
Starting point is 00:24:33 Any kind of clock or direction. I mean, Blake just came and visited me in Orange County and drove to the wrong city. That's true. Really? So yes, went to a completely different beach town that I don't live in. That's true. Which beach town did you end up going to? He went to Huntington Beach. Yes. Is that how we're saying it now? We say Huntington? Huntington? Huntington? Yeah, I don't know. I lived down the street. I just want to know what it's called. If you want to know what my thinking was behind that is like I didn't want to text Adam for like the hundredth time like what's your address. So I just put in a location that I know is near him. It's a restaurant. It just so happens that there's more than one of those. Of course there is. So
Starting point is 00:25:19 I pulled up to an entire, I didn't know it was a chain, man. Oh, I see. Yeah. But you do know what town he lives in. I do, yes. Yeah. And the destination. Yeah, some alarms should have gone off in my head. That should have rang your bell. Maybe a little, and you also grew like you spend a fair amount of time in Orange County. So when you're getting off the freeway and going to like Huntington Beach, you know that this is not on the way to Adam. Yes. Yeah. And by the way, so but hang on, but also once you get to the restaurant in Huntington or even in where he lives, you're going to have to text him for the address anyway. Well, then no, then things start to trigger. Then he was thinking he was going to vibe it out. Yeah. Then I vibe it
Starting point is 00:26:08 out. I sess it out in a vibe. For sure. I would have just sent you the address like really quickly, just without even thinking twice. I would have just blasted it over to you. But also just scroll up in the text chain. It's there. I tried. I tried that. Trust me. I scrolled for a while and where to go. He delete your text chains. Are you one of those guys? Well, I lose my phones. They get wet. Well, he's embarrassed of all the hot sexual texts. Me and Blake is right throw at each other. Yeah. Embarrassed for himself to like go back and relive it. Exactly. Well, he didn't want his girl to see all these hot sexual texts. Oh, right. She was watching it was like on the dash or something. Yeah, it's connected via Bluetooth. Although
Starting point is 00:26:50 purple horny emojis are a lot of squirt emojis. Are you texting? Were you texting wet wet Juicy Vagina? We got to get that on the fucking sound board. When I asked you to do the Bad Ideas episode that show I did for Quibi and I asked you to do the car racing. Yes, that what you were. You were probably the worst person that I could have asked to do the car racing. Well, it was a demolition derby. Inminidly, it was probably the most dangerous thing that I did. And me and Derz swam with our dicks out in the Amazon River. So, well, yeah. Hey, I don't know, Adam, we drove pretty dang close to some freaking cliffs. We did drive pretty dang close to some freaking cliffs. Yeah, so I don't know. I mean, that would freak me out the cliff thing. The thing
Starting point is 00:27:45 is, is I don't know how to drive a stick shift, but I do enjoy racing. I find that very fun. Yeah. Do any of you guys know how to drive a stick shift? Can we just talk about man shit here for a second? Okay. I know some women who can freaking whip a stick. Okay, that's a little. Let me replace that. Can we just talk? Okay, you're right. I'm wrong. I will save that. No, no, no. I'm saving it for later. Come on, Tim. I don't have to double down kind of a guy. I float through. Kyle, the tool man. I float through. Is it take back? Save it. I do not know how to drive stick, and I will probably never learn unless there's like a job. I had to learn when me and Derz, we did a thing for the bad ideas show where we took a ice cream truck, which essentially was
Starting point is 00:28:35 just a truck that we put coolers of ice cream in the back of the truck and drove it on the side of this cliff is one of the world's most dangerous roads in Peru. It was pretty insane in certain parts where it's one lane, it's like gravel and mud and there's like a sheer cliff along the side of it. And I learned how to drive a stick shift in this giant big ass truck, like the day before in the parking lot of the hotel that we were staying in. And you know, wasn't very good at it. Wasn't very successful. Yeah, no, no, the car was in the parking brake on the whole time. Yeah, I left the parking brake on the entire time. And we're like, why is it stink like this? I don't know. Peruvian cars, we don't know how they work. Burning it up. It just reeked. We just totally
Starting point is 00:29:23 fucked this guy's car up. And then we gave him like $400 and he's like, thank you. This is a new car. This truck sucks. Both you and Blake know how to drive motorcycles, which is kind of that's the same idea as a stick. You're driving a clutch clutch car. So you kind of got the idea there. I would love to jump in on the motorcycle thing. Yeah, let's do it. Are we still on the stick thing? Well, I know I have something else because I know you. I mean, go ahead, Anders. Go stick, go stick. No, stick is like, I just was giving them credit because they know the clutch, at least the clutch mentality, which is really what it's about how an engine operates. That's the what my father made me learn on. And that's why I call it man shit. What? And that's what is
Starting point is 00:30:07 that man shit, Kyle? That's why I call it man shit because of my father because he said you must learn on a stick. And I said, okay, daddy. Hey, I don't disagree with that. Wow, daddy. Well, why don't you cry about saddlebags? I got one. But yeah, let's talk motorcycles. So like, what was it season three or four that you guys got motorcycles? But Blake got head his first and then I bought it. I bought mine maybe a year or so after Blake got his. Who what kind of making models are we talking? Yeah, I got a Harley right out the gate. It was it was crazy. It was my first motorcycle. It was the terrible decision. Yeah, I got a Triumph 900. It was a souped up bad bitch. And I really thought it was fucking cool. But I live, my house was in the Hollywood Hills.
Starting point is 00:30:53 So it's it's I couldn't learn. I couldn't get in and out of my neighborhood. Right. It's tough. If I was able to like roll my way down this cliff, then I could actually drive it on the Flatlands pretty easily. Like that that I could do. But I remember I dropped it so many times. And every time you drop a motorcycle, it's a goddamn $1,000 of bullshit that you got to fix because the clutch will pop off. And you know, all the shit will break that that they're like, you don't know how to fix it because you're a fucking idiot. Because you don't know, as Kyle would say, man shit, man shit. Sorry. Sorry about it. Yeah, I'm saving it. But yeah. So I ended up I don't have it anymore. But when I don't have it, you got rid of it. I got rid
Starting point is 00:31:38 of it. Yeah, I sold it for like nothing for like zero dollars. Okay. All right. That was going to be my question is what you're all doing with it. And can I get it? I have one. I'm gonna take yours. So I remember one of the first times I dropped it, I was going down the side of the cliff in my in my neighborhood, you have to take like a hairpin turn to get out of the neighborhood. Yeah, gnarly gnarly downhill hairpins. Yeah. And I just kind of lost control of the bike. It wasn't there was nothing there. There was nothing in front of me. And there was guys working construction on this house right here. And I like, I'm going to just drive into this bush. So I put the bike down real quick, you know, like an idiot. And I'm just like fall and I like skid down the hill
Starting point is 00:32:22 a little bit. And I get up. And I'm so embarrassed that I just dropped my expensive ass motorcycle just on the ground. It's going to be another fucking $1,000 that I got to pay for this thing to get fixed. By the way, I'm a half block away from my home. I didn't get out of the neighborhood. And I was so embarrassed that all these guys saw and they're like, Oh, is it okay? And I look into the bush and go fucking squirrels. As if a squirrel came out and I'm such a good guy that I don't want to hit a squirrel. So I throw my motorcycle to the ground. Well, the coolest thing, the only cool thing about falling off your motorcycle is that as soon as it happens, as soon as you drop your bike, you instantly get this embarrassment strength where you can just lift a thousand
Starting point is 00:33:12 pounds. No, like you just lift your bike up and these things are heavy as fuck. You're so embarrassed that you're just like, I'm cool. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'm on the side of the cliff. It's, it's, it's, you know, it's like an 800 pound motorcycle. And I'm like, just no problem. You get home, your back just seizes up. It's like, damn. That was the most fun when you guys had those motorcycles and you'd come into the writer's room and talk about your trials. How terrifying it was riding in. Yeah. And it's just like, why do you have these things? Because I had three of the best rides in my life. How many times did you ride it? Like about three to four times? Seriously? Yeah. Adam, like a dozen? Yeah, I probably took it out about a dozen times, but I crashed five times. Like it
Starting point is 00:34:01 was almost a 50% crash rate for me getting in and out of my neighborhood. And finally, it was the last time I did it. I was shooting the movie, Why Him? And I was in a scene with Franco and Brian Cranston and we're staying around this table and we're talking. And all of a sudden, my leg seized up. And I made this like face. I was like, because it was like the most pain that I've experienced. Like a Charlie horse sensation? Yeah, it felt just like, yeah, just like seized up. The muscles were like, yeah, it was like something was like grabbing me like a python had wrapped around my leg and just was squeezing the shit out of me. That's Franco. That was Franco's python. You know, he's got a hug. And then Brian Cranston goes, I'm sorry,
Starting point is 00:34:51 that's either either you're in a lot of pain or that's the most insane character choice I've ever seen in my life, as if my character is just making some fucking bizarro face. And I'm like, ah, my fucking leg, I'm so sorry, guys, I don't know what happened. And I peel up my my pants. And I, I guess I didn't look on the back of my I two days before this over the weekend, I was driving my motorcycle and same hairpin turn and I was going up this time. And I have to take this hard left in order to, you know, not drive off a cliff. And so I'm going to take this hard left. And I eat shit. And I'm going to pick up the motorcycle, but it's heavy as fuck. So you really got to throw your body weight into it. And I just put my entire leg against the tailpipe.
Starting point is 00:35:43 But I was hit by the cement truck so I can't feel my skin. So like, I can't feel hot and cold. I can only feel pressure. I can't feel if my skin is just boiling off. And it was fully sizzling against the the exhaust pipe. Yeah. And so I just get out of my leg. And it's on the back of my leg. So I'm like, when I wash my body, I don't like inspect the back of my legs. I just sort of like go over it with my fucking luffa. Right. Oh, yeah. I treat myself. Yeah. Is that is that some manship my brother? The luffas? Luffas are actually full bacteria. I would not suggest them. They sit there and they collect so much. Okay, thank you. Dr. Neuecek. Well, I rub my open wounds with them. Yes. Yeah, I would not suggest that. So anyway, so then I go back and I'm shooting this
Starting point is 00:36:34 scene and they were like, Well, you look absolutely insane. I peel my my pants up. And it's purple and blue and green. It's the most magnificent looking wound you've ever seen. It's a beautiful piece of artwork. And then they were like, What are you doing? You're shooting a movie, you shouldn't be driving a motorcycle. Also, you obviously don't know how to drive a motorcycle. So don't drive like you don't understand a fucking squirrel. Yeah, just use that for the rest of your life. After that, I was like, Well, what the fuck am I doing? I'm like, I want to be an actor and do movies and shit. I'm not trying to just like, break my fucking neck driving a motorcycle when I truly don't even know how to drive a motorcycle. And then I can't do this shit that I'm actually
Starting point is 00:37:23 like to do. Yeah. Everybody in LA knows at least two people that have died on motorcycles. It's like automatic. LA is a terrible place to have a motorcycle. Because the lifestyle is like, the traffic here is so garbage that you're like, Oh, motorcycle, I'll just skirt between lanes and like everybody on a motorcycle does it. And then everyone dies. Yeah, that's so freaky when I see people going in between that stuff. I just didn't like, What is happening? It's not legal in other states. When I first moved here, I was like, These guys are whiling the fuck out. They don't give a shit. Like they but it's truly it's a legal thing that you can do here. Yeah, it's weird because I don't think I've ever really seen in California. I don't think I've ever seen a motorcycle taking
Starting point is 00:38:07 up the space of a car. You know what I mean? Like just being like, I'm a car. Yeah, exactly. And the cops do it too. Chips. They fucking like stroll through and I'm like, All right, what's your big ass motorcycle? Fucking rules don't apply. Yeah. I love making room for those guys, though, because I'm like, you're not going to die on my car. You're gonna die somewhere up there. The bitch fell off. The bitch fell off. Can you imagine if somebody was splitting lanes and they just hit your rear view and you're just like, Whoa. And then you see him spill. Isn't that like a classic move? If like, they fucking hate you. They like have a holster with a hammer on the fucking motorcycle and they pull it out and just hammer off your rear view. I mean, I feel like that's kind of an urban legend,
Starting point is 00:38:50 but for sure. There's some dickheads. I mean, I'm sure that has been done. Yeah. I don't I don't know if that's the go to move, but yeah, for sure, I would do it. What's up? I'd do it. Yeah. That's what I would have. I would have that. I'd have freaking missiles on the side. In seventh or eighth grade, we had this like cool last gym, or no, he wasn't even a gym teacher, science teacher, and he was like the teacher all the girls had a crush on and he had like a carabiner key chain that like made him seem like young and hip and he told this story about a friend of his and he's like, I'll never forget it for the rest of my life. He's like, I got a buddy coolest guy you ever met, got himself a ninja, plowed right into a like a bulkhead on Lake Shore
Starting point is 00:39:38 Drive. He's dead and I was like, not getting a motorcycle. Mr. McCollum doesn't want me to get it. He's got a carabiner. I'm not getting the most like you put that together. A ninja of my little kid brain. I would have been like, he got himself a ninja and then wouldn't know ninjas were like the hot motorcycle of the time. It was what vanilla ice had into the extreme or not to the extreme. I'm zipping around construction sites. What was it? Cool as ice. Cool as ice. Yeah. So we all knew what a ninja was. It was all about ninjas and sidekicks. If you had this sidekick. Hello. Yeah. Wind is a factor got himself a ninja plowed right into the I was like a off ramp or something like that. Stuck with me. RIP. Yeah. I remember that was the story
Starting point is 00:40:22 of motorcycles. It's not if you're going to have to lay it down. It's when you're going to have to lay it down, which is why they're so fucking cool because they're dangerous. Yeah. And it's like, so every time you get on it, it's a death wish, man. Like you're just like, well, not me ride to live. I always figured I always figured if I was going like on a motorcycle and I had to lay it down, I would, but I would slide under a semi. No, I wouldn't lay it down and then get on top of it and surf it. Oh, you would surf it. Yeah. Yeah. I always think that's what I would end up doing because I'm so agile and nimble and yeah, you know, like you're a ninja. Yeah, you really are. Who's the ninja now? You think you guys really think I could do that, right? Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:41:06 I mean, shit, you taught yourself to surf killed me much harder surf on a sideways motorcycle going 55 miles an hour on asphalt. That's true. Yeah. Right. That's exactly my thought. Hi, I'm David Eagleman. I have a new podcast called Inner Cosmos on iHeart. I'm a neuroscientist and an author at Stanford University.

What the hell did I just see? I was scared that he was coming home. What Ashley discovered that day was a secret so dark
Starting point is 00:42:58 she feared for her life. She was like, oh my god, I got to get out of the house. He's going to find out that I've seen this. He's going to come kill me.

I didn't even tell you that last week I had like one of the
Starting point is 00:44:30 all-time life day. I had an all-time life day. I got to eat dinner lasagna with none other than you two's The Edge. What? Yes. Berry the headline. Yeah. With The Edge himself? Yes, dude. Because you know, I live on the same block as none other than Tiba Jefferson. He's the photographer of this podcast and Game Over Man and Thrasher and all that. Living legend. Right. Living legend. Love the guy. I could do a whole pot on him. Oh my god, I love him. My god, he's so cute. We love him. A Tiba. Somehow he has connections with The Edge from you two. Of course he does. He's a huge you two fan. Yes, he is. He is. Yeah, that's his band. He spreads the gospel, but just the fact that he had his greatest hero ever over to eat his homemade lasagna. Oh, at the house. At a Tiba's
Starting point is 00:45:23 house. Not at like Dan Tana's or something. Wow. No, we were in his backyard with The Edge eating his mom's homemade lasagna, dude. It was insane. Oh, wow. That's awesome. It was absolutely insane. Were you like, have you found what you're looking for or have you still not found what you're looking for? I dropped so many references. A Tiba kicked me out. No. It was crazy, dude. It was absolutely insane. He was the absolute nicest dude, him and his wife. Yeah. Just the super humble, super awesome. Yeah. I'm saying as soon as this Covito stuff is over, we're getting backstage passes, brother. Let's go. Oh, baby. I want to get out there when he does numb. Oh my gosh. How crazy is that, dude? You two is what? Like third biggest rock band of all time, maybe? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:13 Beatles, Rolling Stones, you too? Who else? Yeah, they're up there, dude. And it's crazy, because they still haven't found what they're looking for. Yeah. It is crazy. They're still looking for it. They're still looking. Yeah. The Edge has a sound that I don't think people, like you instantly recognize when it's the Edge, but I don't think he gets the credit that is due. I agree. Well, wasn't he in that documentary with Jack White, right? It might get loud. And he was talking about all the different amplifications and all the different patches that he runs through, and he's got his own tech that kind of gives him a sound that cannot be replicated. Right. Well, that's what was kind of, because I grew up in a U2 house. My stepdad and
Starting point is 00:46:56 my dad always listened to U2, but I never super deep dived. And the album Boy is super sick, like Atiba was playing it that night, but I hadn't really dove into it much. And if upon first listen, and I was getting kind of drunk, like the bass lines kind of sound like a little cure-ish. So I'm like, to the Edge, I'm like, so like, were you like influenced by like the cure or something? And then he just kind of was like, no, like it was us, dude. We created everything. It's like just insane. And he's like, no, we influenced them. Yeah, like everyone you hear is us. We're really old. We've been around forever. I know it doesn't seem like I'm old, because I'm always wearing sunglasses and a hat. And my name is the Edge. And my name is the Edge.
Starting point is 00:47:43 What is his real name? Kyle Edgerton. He's one of those brothers. Edgerton. Yeah, Kyle Edgerton. I wouldn't know. I don't call him the Edge anymore. I call him the Homie. Oh, the friend. The friend. Wow, that's a downgrade in the name. Oh, God. Yeah, that's a... Yeah, the Edge is way cooler than the Homie. To you, it's a major upgrade. But to him, that's kind of like, I don't know. Yeah, what do you think he's going to tell me to pause on that? Yeah. His name is David Howell Evans. Cool name. Allegedly. That sounds like a serial killer's name. Allegedly, the Edge's name is David Howell. Yeah, that's a serial killer's name. I understand why he changed it, because that is for sure a serial killer name. I will say that I do love the song until the end of the world,
Starting point is 00:48:27 I think is what it's called. And I heard it like hella late. And I was like, oh, this must be on like the new album. I got to listen to it and couldn't find it and had to dig way back in the crates. Yeah, they got some hits. Yeah, what's so crazy is like, even in that situation, because we're all like drinking wine and taking like shots with the Edge because he's Irish, so you got to do it. Let's go. But it was like... What do you mean you got to do it, Dad? Come on, dude. They make still going to send it. Hello. I'm still going to send it. Nice. No, I mean, it's weird that you guys are drinking wine, first of all, because Itiba only just mainlines Jagermeister. Right, Jager, right. Yeah, but you really think you're going to convince the homie to drink Jagermeister?
Starting point is 00:49:11 It's not happening. Convince David Howell Evans. Yeah, it's not happening, dude. Yeah, maybe. What sort of booze did you guys drink? You were just doing some Jameson, which I hadn't had in a minute. It's so delicious. Oh, yeah. It's really lovely. Night Ender. It was. That's some Irish shit. But that's what's weird is you start to... You're hanging with a literal living legend and you're starting to get tipsy. You start to ask the dumb... I'm like asking about like the Batman and Robin soundtrack. Yes, Kiss Me, Kill Me. Yeah, he's like, no, I remember. He's like, yeah, mate, have another shot and fucking shut up. You were fanning out to him in a major way. And the more drunk you got, the more you're like, tell me about this. Oh my goodness. How many people were over
Starting point is 00:49:49 there? It was just five of us. It was Edge, his wife, Morley, Atiba, and Akko. But Akko blacked out, so he like... He didn't count. He peaced out kind of quick. When he woke up, were you like, dude, Bono came over? And then the blonde guy with glasses showed up and just drummed for a half hour. I was like, no way. Yeah, what is that? So you're just like fanning out, but really like, what else are you going to talk to him about? It's like... Yeah, fuck, whatever. Yeah. Well, that's what's cool about this dude. He's been in the game for eight million years and he's a true fan of all, like he's an encyclopedia. He lives music, so you just talk music the whole time. It was a fucking dream. Yeah, that's cool. That's radical. Did he ask to touch your hair?
Starting point is 00:50:32 No, well, COVID, so no touching. Right, right, right. Oh yeah, because of COVID. Social distance party. I could tell he was like... He wanted to. Let's take a goofy picture, like lay it over my head and it looks like I have it. They call me the hair every time. Just chill. Well, how did Atiba get him over? It was just like, yo, do you want to come over and eat lasagna? Well, I think they had kind of like linked up in Japan a while back. Yeah, you got to link up in Japan. Like after a show and they were at a bar together and then somehow I think the Edges wife was following Atiba on Instagram and Atiba posted a picture of his mom's lasagna, which he makes, which is super bomb. And the Edges wife was like, can we get some of that? And it was like, yeah, let's
Starting point is 00:51:21 link up, let's set up a dinner. That's how these things always work though. It's like, there's always a link up in Japan than a picture of a mom's lasagna and can I get some of that? Yeah. I think that's how the Godfather too, they weren't going to do a sequel, but I think Coppola had I can't remember exactly, but Japan was in there too. I recall something about lasagna. So were you guys you guys were listening to you two while the Edges over? Well, it's as the night goes on and you get more bold, like a team is like, Oh, I'm going to play you my you two set. But it was so cool because you could tell this dude, that's pretty tight. When you have someone who goes, I'm going to play you what has made me who I am based on you. It's like an honor. Oh man. And I
Starting point is 00:52:06 think in that context, the edge must have been like, I'll tolerate it. Yeah. Like it's okay. Yeah, but what's it like? I mean, okay, do you remember it or were you at the Ako level or no dude? I was hype. Like what was his response? Was he like the honor is accepted or was he like this is going on a little too long? No, that's no. No, I heard him and it's just it's just the hits. It's just the biggest songs that he has to play every goddamn day. Nothing from the back of the crates, just like all the front runners. Yeah, it's just with or without you. I still haven't found one I'm looking for. Yeah, he's like, just heard this on the radio over here. But okay, yeah, we can have you like, have you ever heard? It's like, I love this deep cut. It's called beautiful day.
Starting point is 00:52:50 It's the sweetest thing. The joint from the reality bite soundtrack. I remember that being like the song that touched my soul for the first time. I was like, this shit is deep. Whatever it was, you don't remember what it was. Can't remember. You two to me is like college music. It's like the type of shit because it gets you in your feels more and I feel like when you're like 18, 19 years old and you're just trying to figure yourself out. Yeah, sure. That's when you get all up in your feels. I feel like I was more in my feels than ever since ever since. And that to me, it makes me think of some OCC, Orange Coast Community College days, listening to a lot of basically with or without you. They're most popular. You got to throw in all I want is you
Starting point is 00:53:41 from the reality bite soundtrack because that shit goes. Well, what's dope about even like early, you two, that shit was like Revolution Rock. Like they were political. They were trying to make a change. Like you put that shit on now. You better be ready to change the fucking world, dude. It's true. Dude, whatever. I was just talking about because I listened to a lot of rage against the machine. I just fucking love them speaking of baselines and whatever happened to like political rock music or any type of it's besides like the YG Donald Trump song. There's no there's like no political rock music. Yeah. There's no rock music period really. That's true. So Kendrick is speaking of which Kendrick has a song featuring you to which we listened to with
Starting point is 00:54:29 the edge. He was super stoked on that song. Awesome. Awesome. Yeah. Kendrick is elevated. Who else makes noise? Well, I mean, rage was just about to do Coachella. I feel like it was leaning that way. I know. But I mean, yeah, and I fucking love rage against the machine. But they're like, I think I saw like a post the other day of it was like a clip of rage against the machine that someone had posted. And then they were like, oh, since when did they get so political? And the song is like 20 years old. And you're like, what? Oh, evil empire. Come on. Let's go. Yeah. I think I saw that it was like, what were you listening to? What what songs were you listening to? And did you just have them turned off or what? Yeah. Oh, I never turned them on before. I
Starting point is 00:55:14 actually never listened to them. I just like love the t shirts that hot topic. I thought they were sick. Yeah, they did have some sick shirts. I just liked that album cover of the dude on fire. Fucking sick. I also really liked when he like sat on the speakers like at the MTV like music awards. Like I thought that was a sick move. Oh, yeah, that was dope. Yeah. When he like climbed up high and like wouldn't come down. That was so tight. Yeah, dude. Protest, baby. Everyone didn't know what was going on. That shit was rock and roll back then. Yeah. The MTV music awards used to be a fucking stop everything you're doing and watch that shit. 100%. We all know the one moment that changed everything. What? Oh, I know. Fartman. When Sting came out of the floor for Puff Daddy doing
Starting point is 00:55:58 the BIG with Faith Evans and shit. Every breath you take. That was a game changer. Wait, but wasn't this also a moment fucking Snoop Dogg? Oh, Snoop getting out of the wheelchair. Oh, yeah. Coming up out of the wheelchair. Murder was the case. What? I thought he got shot when he came on stage in the wheelchair. I was like, wait, what? Did Tabitha Soren not give me the fucking news about this? Kurt Loder, where you at? And then he was walking and I was like, man, the theatres. Dude, he stood up. That was crazy. And he showed up to the red carpet with like his hair straightened, like all like relaxed. And he's just like, I'm just feeling way lovely this evening. I was like, oh my gosh, Snoop Dogg is the coolest guy ever of all time. I feel like the more recent to cool
Starting point is 00:56:39 moment from the music awards was when was it Borat who dropped down on Eminem and put his butt on Eminem's face and Eminem was like, no, no, not cool. Yeah, he was in on that. He was like, yeah, my bum is on. It wasn't Tom Green. Damn. No, they're homies, right? Legend mate. Tom Green. I don't know. I just remember him not being cool with it. Like maybe he was acting, but I thought it was funny. He was acting. Yeah, he's a good actor. Well, he's a great actor. Yeah. Eight Mile was fantastic. You're right. I was fooled. I was fooled. He got you. I feel like if you just, maybe you should have lasagna with Eminem or something. I don't know. I feel like this could go down. I'll have mom's spaghetti over lasagna. Okay. I'll eat a little mom's spaghetti. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:26 So that's the trick to get like your favorite rock stars over to your house is just constantly be posting photos of what's your mom's best recipe. My mom fucking sucks at cooking shit. So like, I love her. I love her. What do you mean? That's weird that you're saying that about your mom. It's effect. It's factual. It's yeah, I don't have like, there's no outstanding dish that my mom made. Some moms can't cook. My mom, she'll agree to this. She's not a good cook. She was a new chef. She makes her one thing that she does make is those pretzel sticks, which are just pretzels dipped in chocolate. And oh my God. Yes. Thank you. Those are so good. It's a wonderful time of year when those come in the mail. Yeah. But that's a dessert. You're not inviting over.
Starting point is 00:58:06 I'm not gonna have Anthony Kitas over to eat pretzel sticks. Oh, you wouldn't? Yeah. I'm not. Dave Grohl's not rolling through to have a night of pretzel sticks. I kind of think you could get him over there with that. I kind of think you could wait, who would you guys what? Okay, ready? Who would you guys want to have over for dinner and what dish of your mothers would you serve to be like this is my best foot forward? Oh Jesus, this is my mom is not a great cook either. You can't say that. You can't say that. Look at you. No, but I've had Adam's mom's food. I actually fundamentally disagree with him. So I can't wait for your takebacks and apologies. What specifically do you like that my mother cooks? I love her sandwiches. Oh my God. Come on. Well, she cooks
Starting point is 00:58:51 it with she makes things with love. It's not like she's just you know, I think what it was about your mom's cooking now that I think about it is like she was just down to cook whenever. Sure. Oh, yeah, it was it's not that it's overly good. It's like no matter what we would come home at like, you know, in a high school, come home at like midnight or, you know, one o'clock, my mom would wake up and be like, you guys want some steaks? Yeah. And they're like, yeah. And she would straight up cook us steaks, steak and eggs at like 1am. And meanwhile, we're just highest fucking kites. And, you know, drunk as fuck. And she like wouldn't either wouldn't acknowledge that or just act like she didn't know or maybe she didn't know. I have no idea. She was
Starting point is 00:59:33 just like, I'm going to keep you guys here until you get in a car and drive home. I think she was just stoked that we were, you know, we were home and and she could feed the boys. So if your mom made a steak, who would you want to kick it with? Who would you want to have over at your house for your mom's steak? Maybe, you know, I mean, you know me, it's the entire original cast, not the original, the Tom, Mark, and Travis of frozen blink 182 fame. I'm trying to have a punk Christmas. Oh, cast. I was like, what is he talking about? Cast Tom, Tom, Ace. He meant band. My guy's Broadway. I meant band. I'm an actor. Broadway or bus. I'm a Broadway boy. Is Travis Barker not in that? No, I said trap. I want that lineup, if you will. Yeah,
Starting point is 01:00:27 is that not who it is anymore? Or was it before that? I don't know. It still is. It still is Travis Barker. Okay. Mark Tom and Travis show. That's what I want over at my house. Nice. Yeah, that would be fucking dope. Yeah, that's what because you know those guys, I've gotten to know Mark pretty well. And he's just a fucking great guy. And I'm just like, you know that those guys are silly as fuck. Very funny music videos, taking the piss at a boy band. Yeah, those guys are just silly. It wouldn't be too precious. You would be on edge. You'd be like, and I know edge homie on homie. You'd be on homie. Oh, yeah, it's just you'd be on homie, dude. Yeah, I'd be like, I'd be like, I know I'm feeling this. I miss you. Hey, it's Adam song.
Starting point is 01:01:15 I take apple juice and just pour it on the carpet in the hall. Okay, Blake, what's up? I'm doing my mother's turkey pot pie with Stevie Wonder. Wow. Wow. All right. Yeah, I mean, that makes sense. Yeah, okay. Yeah. All right, Kyle, your turn. Kyle, your turn. Yeah, well, I went back in time because I I've been eating at the at the house in a while. And I don't I think I think my favorite food to my mom ever made was her meatloaf. Hey, like I loved my mom. That's straight up. Yeah, because we loaded up with ketchup and you just throw ketchup on top. So you like ketchup. I love that meatloaf. Like you haven't been throwing that out enough this one, man. God damn, dude. Love that meatloaf. And I don't know because that took me back. So then I was
Starting point is 01:02:06 like, I don't know, maybe I'd ask exhibit to come over and have some meatloaf. See, that's funny. That would be a fun story. X to the Z. Because you could talk about Pimp My Ride. You could talk about. You would for sure. Yeah, I just have a lot that I would love to talk about what exhibit over my mom is. You're not going to be talking about any of his music. It's just about like, do you think an aquarium will fit? Check out this. Could you put a pool table in the backseat? Yeah, do you think a hot tub would actually fit? Yeah, that's a good one. Well, ask him like, you know, say what was going through your mind when you wrote X, gonna give it to you? Like, what was the meaning behind that? He was like, you know, I was thinking about giving it to him. I'd be like,
Starting point is 01:02:47 how you like the meatloaf? No, the record label, they kept bothering me for a song. I'm like, fine, that's going to give it to you. And then I was like, wait a second. See, that would be some cool insider info about my guest for Jersey. It's the Beastie Boys. Pretty close. The person I was thinking of was Q-Tip. Yeah. And we would, we would enjoy a pan of my mom's brownies. Okay, there we go. So you did the dessert when we said that you couldn't do the pretzel sticks or like pretzel sticks are covered in chocolate. Let me reboot here. Okay, hang on. Time out. Are you you're shitting on my, no, it's cool. I'm just want to make sure we're on the same page. I mean, my mom made turkey pot pie. Have you had Petting Devine's pretzel sticks? I haven't. Are you asking
Starting point is 01:03:31 me? I'm asking you. Me? You? Ders? Have you had her pretzel sticks? I don't think so. Maybe on the set of Wargaholics, allegedly. Yeah, I feel like I feel like we have. Yeah, allegedly, we've had those. I'm sure they're great. I guess. Okay, fine. Because my mom would just make brownies constantly. It was just like a thing in our house. That's so sick. That's super dope. I love that. Lucky boy. But I guess I'll have to rock with some of those old school hard shell El Paso tacos. Hey, yo. Classics. With like the meat, the meat seasoning and just pick Q tips brain with a Q tip. Dang, that's a great call. Yeah, just, just talk. That's cool. I feel like tacos are a really good chatting food as well. Tacos. That's why they're called
Starting point is 01:04:15 tacos. That's good. Yeah, because you're talking while eating. I'm wondering, what if he passed on like the shell though, and he was like, I'll just make a plate. I think I'd be like, get the fuck out. Yeah, you're done. Really? I think it would bother me. I think I'd be like, hit the road. Q tip. It's a taco. It's not, this is not a plate situation. You're breaking my heart here. Yeah, it's not a bowl. Okay, please have a taco. Yeah, get over yourself Q tip. Well, what if he's like, you know, Q tips a little older, maybe he's added and, you know, thrown, thrown on a few extra pounds and I'll be, what if he has a taco and then for round two, he comes back and he's like, for this one, I'm just going to bowl it up. Would you then
Starting point is 01:04:52 know because he had the taco, but here's the thing when you make those tacos, especially the hard shell, if you've had three or four and like they're breaking and kind of falling out on the plate, then you have your like remnants that you clean up, you scarf on after, right? You have the base. So you don't have to put a taco shell on the fourth one. You're cool. So if Q tip made a couple tacos and then he just started like pounding them with his fist into nachos, would you be like, this fool is a legend? If he did that shit to a beat, then we're good. If he was just like, let me just, now that's a low end theory. Yeah, that might be. By the way, he did hand me my phone when I got off the airplane like last year coming from New York. Sir Q tip. That was your
Starting point is 01:05:37 chance. So you've done your Japan meetup. Now you have to do your mom's tacos. Yeah, you already had the meetup. Right, exactly. I left my phone on my seat and he was like, hey, man, is this yours? And I was like, yeah. And I was like, yeah, thank you, dude. Appreciate it. Instead of I worship you. Thank you, sir. It's tough to keep it together. Yeah. Well, my neighbors are Green Day and I've become buddies with them. Oh, right. And I had actually had a pretty punk rock thing happen the other day where I was getting stuff out of my car and my car was parked on the street and Billy Joe and his wife pull up in like their the dookie mobile and their dookie mobile knows a convertible. And they're like, oh, hey, what's up? But I haven't seen him for a while. And I'm like, wait, it wasn't
Starting point is 01:06:23 the dookie mobile. Yeah. Okay. Why'd you say it was? I'm sorry. I'll say it wasn't the dookie mobile. No, why did you even say it was then? I did because it's called yes, Andy dog. Yeah, he's yes, Andy. Not quite. I had a completely different picture. Yes, Andy. But then I was like, Hey, it's not actually the dookie mobile. It's a convertible. But then you say convertible. Now I have to change. I have to go backwards and change a whole fucking story. Sorry. Okay, it's a convertible. It's not the dookie mobile. All you need to know is he's talking to the lead singer of the cast of Green Day. Now stop. The original cast of Green Day. The original cast. Future American idiots and people the people there was a lot it was like a weekend and there
Starting point is 01:07:04 was a lot of people leaving the beach and they were backed up behind them and they're honking them and coming around them. And Billy Joseph's trying to wave them through and his wife jumped up on her seat. This is why it's important that it's a convertible and she stood up and she's flips them all off and she's like, Fuck you. We're talking here. Fuck you. And I'm like, God damn, I love punk rock. Wow. I love I love that. I love that you're able to just say, fuck you. And they're like, Oh, that's part of our thing. Yeah, we're fucking rock and roll. You're like, I do have the time to listen to you wine. I did. Great. I do have the time. Guys, is there any takebacks, apologies or the other thing that
Starting point is 01:07:45 we say? Yeah, I'll jump in. I'll jump in and I'll definitely apologize. Because we know what's coming. Well, I'm going to apologize for saying man stuff about the car. I'm going to do a full blonde eating you alive. I don't think you had to apologize for that. Adam's got his take back from next next episode. I said I was saving it. So I'm going to do it anyways. But I also would like to apologize to Durs for jumping down the throat about the brownies because I actually kind of want to taste them brownies one day. So hey, you can go to the grocery store and buy them. They're called Betty Crocker, baby. Yeah, we got all right. Nice. Cool. Compliment your mom on the Betty Crocker recipe. No doubt. Nice. I would like to apologize to my mother by saying she's a shitty
Starting point is 01:08:33 cook. And I shouldn't have said she's shitty. I should say that she's just not any good. Very nice. Very nice. Very good. Nice. Nice, dude. And I want to just compliment all your mothers for, you know, just having food on the table. And you know, it's not easy. I'm over here trying to cook stuff. Sweetheart, I burn toast. I tell you, it's a heck of a time cooking up a meal for these kids out here. So shout out to mom's trying out there. Yeah, boom. Absolutely. Huge. Let's see. I believe the third thing is compliments. Just want to compliment Blake on his story. And being so forthright about how dorky he was with the edge. We appreciate that. And let's see. I guess I apologize to Kyle. I'm sure I said something.
Starting point is 01:09:22 You were actually nice to me today. Yeah, you were good. Yeah, I thought that was pretty good. It was a pretty good, light Kyle. Well, I guess I found my take back. Take back all apologies. All good. All right. And we will definitely have more. We'll have more on next week. We should have done that for an hour straight. God damn. Damn it. Hi, I'm David Eagleman.
