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.

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 only talk about
Starting point is 00:01:40 what's the most important bottom line critical thing happening on this planet. Today on This Is Important? The male's human body can't go seven hours without jerking off. Show me a shit that doesn't stink. Oh, you just put your hand in and go like, those are eyeballs. What would you like in the feeling to immediately after? Are you getting like a dose of euphoria? Buckle up. Did we get it? We're back. We're back. Whopper whopper, chicken nugget. Here we go, baby. Whopper whopper. Hit it. Go. Have it your way. Whopper whopper, whopper whopper, jim.
Starting point is 00:02:32 Uh, first of all, I would like to thank our fans for loving the last episode as much as they did. I got a lot of sweet, sweet feedback. It was a best of luggage talk. Oh yeah, regretfully. And I feel like the fans came out clamoring. They came out hot, loving the luggage talk, baby. So get ready for more sweet, sweet luggage talk in the future, and we're excited to give it to you. Did they? Did they though? What? Did they? They loved it. They loved it more than this right here. I don't know. The people that were in my DMs actually, uh, surprised. I was like, wow, because I got like, maybe 10 and 15 people in a row that were like, dude, luggage talk. Love it. Hilarious luggage talk. Fuck yeah, luggage talk. Squirt, squirt, luggage talk.
Starting point is 00:03:19 And then I was like, my God, I just went over way better than I thought it was going to. And then I looked at Twitter and Twitter was where you go to be mean and nasty. I feel the DMs are where you, you reach out to be kind of pleasant. And Twitter people were pretty, pretty butthurt about it. Are people still tweeting? Well, we'll get to that. We'll get to that, but apparently. That's a great question, Anders. Like, like what's happening on Twitter is, Anders, apparently, yeah, it's still, I know, but I mean, like, by and large, like, are you guys tweeting? We're talking by and large. Absolutely not. I haven't put a tweet out there. I've never tweeted. I haven't put a tweet out here and probably
Starting point is 00:03:59 by and large, have you? Six years? By and large? Six years? Yeah. Yeah, we're talking by and large, and by and large. I guess I just, when I go on there and I see people still tweeting, I'm like, what is happening? It's like, it's like you graduated high school and you go back and everyone's still there. You're like, why aren't you on TikTok? I'm not on TikTok, but you should be on YouTube stories. What are you doing? Exactly. YouTube stories are, what a fail. But exactly, you're, they're still on Twitter. That's the thing. The whole point of the internet is to fucking turn and burn, man. What are you still doing on Twitter? It's a bagel. And what are you saying? Like, what are you, if you've been on for, let's say, 10 years, what are you still saying?
Starting point is 00:04:44 Honestly, because if you've been on Twitter for 10 years and you're still tweeting, 14, you're, you've got to be super fucking annoying. Right. Okay. Right. In a major way, you kind of have to be, because it's like, what is your ritual where you have to put this thing out there and how often are you fucking tweeting? Well, it's like, do you ever shut up? Honestly, like, shut up. I don't even go there because I don't want to read it. Well, yeah, for sure. For sure. People that tweet too much, definitely you look at them and say, do you ever shut up? Right. Because they don't. Shut up, bitch. Yeah, thank you. But I will say that, that it is the, still the best place to go to see what's happening right now, like in pop culture, because I'm not that plugged in with,
Starting point is 00:05:25 like pop culture stuff. Okay. So like, it's really easy just to go. For what? You mean news? Yeah. Like, just like a thing that happened or like a trending viral trending thing or like, why isn't hood clips going to post something about it? Like hood clips is on Twitter though. Hood clips. Yeah. But like, like weeks later. Oh, yeah. I do remember the last time. Like, days and days later, your Twitter has their, their finger on the pulse, I would say. I remember last time I used it was fires. But like, what's an example? Fires. Okay. Fires. Fires. Like, Adam, what's an example where you're like, I gotta get on Twitter. Okay. Like legit. I'll give you one joke and then I want to hear sports. I'll tell you right now, sports. I'll tell you right
Starting point is 00:06:09 now, sports, instant sports, you can watch along something that is still live. It's fires for things that are still live. The highlights. How's the highlights is posting highlights in game. But you can't really like scroll through what people are thinking unless you're going to read the comments on house of highlights on Instagram. That's just, that's a trash graveyard. You don't want to see that one girl who posts the first comment every time. There's, there's always that one guy, I forget his name, but he comments on everything. He goes blank is the goat foe shore. Lethal shooter. It's not, it's not him. It's who do you know who I'm talking about is blank is the goat. No cap. That's what he says every time. Yay. He's talking about Kanye. Stephanie
Starting point is 00:06:54 with the big booty basketball girl. Yeah. Basketball girl. Stephanie. I'm not talking about cotton. That was the guy though. He would say yay is the goat. No cap. Like he'd be the first one on all his posts. This is deep internet fucking Dorkdom right here. Is it? I feel like we think it is. And then you can ask a zillion people. They know. Yeah. But he's still that guy's still going. Yeah. Well, you can't give up. What the fuck are you guys talking about? You're just talking about somebody who's still tweeting. What are you talking about right now? Kyle quit when a lawnmower bought Twitter. Kyle was out. Fuck Tesla. Okay. Whoa. Yeah. I'm over. Why would you ever say that? They're fine. But I'm just like, uh, I'm over the robots. Yeah. You turned your back
Starting point is 00:07:37 on Tesla. Why'd you turn your back on Tesla? I was thinking about getting one. I'm not turning my back on it. I'm just kind of over it because when my, my Y has been taken a shit. I've had an X, a three and a Y. I've had three of them. Okay. Dang. Okay. Money bags. Get them. Goddamn, bro. Goddamn. I've had experiences. You stick with the winner. I've had experiences with them. And I've, it was great at first. And now you cannot talk to a human. You cannot wait. Oh, yeah, customer service wise. Yeah. Like if something you're saying customer service is bad for Tesla, it's all, and this is going to make me sound old, but in our millennial who wants the old ways. But like, I really do want to talk to a human when it comes to my car. I want a human
Starting point is 00:08:19 voice on the other end. And preferably English speaking human if we're going to get into it. All right. I mean, whatever. I just, it's so confusing. Like my car has died two times. The front motor has gone out on the road. And then it's basically just like a fucking Kyle. What's the second, what other language, what's the second best language acceptable to you? Yeah. Well, that I would be able to understand is probably like French or Spanish, I think. Okay. Oh yeah. I do. You speak such fluent, beautiful French. I would, I would love to hear you have a conversation with us. It is crazy how often French people are like problem solving my like technical stuff. They're like, bonjour. And I'm like,
Starting point is 00:09:02 this person's not going to understand me. Right. Is that right? I feel like I've never talked to a French person ever in your whole life. I'm joking. Yeah. What's up? And I've been to France. You've been to France. You just what? Are you being sarcastic? Yeah. But obviously, but like, I do like that. You're like, I've been to France and I've never, yeah, I was joking. We're back. I refuse to talk to French. Okay. We're back. But okay. So, so look at this. You guys are chunking so hard. This, this podcast sucks. You are chunking pretty hard over there. It's always sucked. This one's par for the course. Yeah, this one's a little tough to time right now. It's going to be tough for Todd to time this one. But the clapping was off. Right. Right. The clapping.
Starting point is 00:09:47 So wait, you had a Tesla problem. So do we by the way, really X X crapped out needed a whole new battery. What was your problem? Mine? So the front motor went out on multiple occasions, which that means that when you hit the brake, it goes like, scary. Yo, how many miles you got on this? I don't know. It's a lease. I think I have like, it's only 17,000 miles, dude. I got it mile zero. Oh, lemon law, lemon law. Damn, dude. Yeah. Well, I lease it. So it doesn't matter. You'll get all your lease money back. Oh, hello. Talk to me about this. What are you talking about? I did it when I had I got the first fucking thing sucks. I got nothing bad to say about Volvo terrific machines. Well, okay, they got like their first electric hybrid that they had with the XC
Starting point is 00:10:32 90, like way back in the day, 2016, maybe, and it just the the motor and the engine weren't talking to each other in the right way. And I had to go to the shop of multiple times. And if you just have that information and you submit for a lemon law here in California, and you're under, I think, 30 or 35,000 miles, you get every penny back. Dude, so that's what this is. This is this is in the lemon law. I can get all this back. What's the lemon law? That's if you you walk off with a shit car, it's called a lemon. Blake doesn't understand. They call cars that don't work that are brand new. A lemon. Yeah, yeah, I'm aware of that. I am aware of that. But I was unaware that there's a law where if you get a bad car, they fully reimburse you. Is that what
Starting point is 00:11:17 you're saying? Yeah, I did it. How come we don't do that with more, more stuff? Yeah, like a printer. Yeah, I don't know run for governor or something. Okay. Yeah, Blake for governor, dude. I vote for you. I want a lemon law for everything stood on that platform. Now, Kyle, I have a question about why your engines keep crepping out. Like, are you curing beef jerky on the engine? Or like, what are you doing to these cars? The opposite. He's stuffing leaf. Are you watching tons of porno on the? Yeah, are you like watching? Are you fully pornogging? Are you hitting the auto drive and just the auto drive allows for some selective viewing if you want to.
Starting point is 00:12:06 Now you said was the was the sound the engine made something like this? Because if the engine is making chortle noises, that might be something else. Yeah, no. Kyle, do you to real talk? Did have you watched porno and Durs too? Have you watched porno while it's self driving? Yeah, just like kind of kicked back. Don't lie. You're under oath. You want me to you want? Why do we have to real talk this? What is your under? I can answer this two different ways. Yeah, real talk. I don't want I don't want any fake talk. I don't want to this he he ha ha's. Let's get real. I've never watched porno on my car. No, but right. Has porno been on in my car? Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I can't control.
Starting point is 00:12:52 On the main screen. And where did you know not on the main screen, but on the main screen, you're cruising along. Yeah, you're on what the five? Did you then now you're just I get it because you you take those long drives from up north down back to LA and it's like a what a six hour drive an eight hour drive. What is it going right past Harris Ranch six hours? It's a it's a in a Tesla. It's like seven because you got to charge and you got to stop and charge a motherfucker. You can't make it all the way up there. No. Okay, so it's like seven hours. And we all know the human the male human body can't go seven hours without jerking off. So you add them to answer your question. So you had to you had to. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, bro. Yeah. I love it, dude. I don't have to
Starting point is 00:13:40 stop, dude, but it's like the things auto driving, dude. And you're wondering why your car is going haywire, but you're going to you porn porn hub. There's jizz in the circuit boards. No, you guys you're tripping. It's not on the main screen. It's harder than you think to put something on the main screen is Tesla's got deals proprietary deals with everything. Right. What's that? Wait, what do you mean? Model X hamster over there. Right. It's Rancho fuck off. There's parental controls or something that makes it so you can't access porno on your Tesla screen. Is that what you're saying? That's a lemon law for me. I don't surf the net on it. You can go use their theater mode to get into like your Hulu or your or your whatever your fucking Netflix and shit. But that's about it.
Starting point is 00:14:26 I promise Elon Musk is not limiting what you can watch on your Tesla. So what do you do on this computer besides look at porno most days? Yeah. Well, the computer. Yeah, I guess the maps are helpful. That's what yeah. What are you looking at? Maps? You fucking dork? Yeah. Well, yeah, maps, but like doing everything. It's a Tesla. It's a fucking Bose speaker with wheels. You know what I mean? It's like, it's doing everything. I guess. Well, Bose speaker is just a speaker. It's dropping some shit right there. It's like, it's like a Bose speaker on wheels. Are you okay? It's a computer. That's a that's just a speaker. You're like, well, so it's just a speaker then. You know what I mean? You can't touch it. You can't touch anything. There's nothing in it.
Starting point is 00:15:09 It's just like you're just it's the computer. What? What do you mean by it's a Bose speaker on wheels? This is what's so scary. This is why I'm not into it. Like I said, five years. This is why I wanted to dig into this because I knew there was gold here. Yeah, there is. Because dude, when you're in a Tesla, which is, how is it a Bose speaker? When you're in a Tesla and essentially it is an iPhone, a speaker, a piece of fucking tech that you get. A speaker and an iPhone are two very, two very different things. A speaker and iPhone. Yeah, iPhones have so many functions. Speaker does one thing. Do you know when your phone is on the fritz? Adam, you know this. You have a tech ghost. Pizza, pizza. Adam is getting personal now. Yeah. Adam, you know this. You have
Starting point is 00:15:54 a tech ghost. Hey, dude, I'm telling you. So when the tech ghost comes into your Tesla, I do have a tech ghost. Yeah, it haunted me last night. It really did. Okay. And what did you hold up for the record? That's why I'm scared to get a Tesla. That's why my phone, my shitty phone, that's on the fritz that like just passes out on me. Like today, it just didn't work. Right. I don't know. Like I was trying to find maps to get home. Yeah. And it just didn't work. And I had to use my brain. Whoa, that's not good. Oh, man. That's not good. Yeah. Look at that. I've lived in LA for 20 years. And I was like down. I was fairly close. And I was like, Oh, fuck, my maps don't work. Right. And I had to get back home. And it probably took me an extra like six minutes, because I just took
Starting point is 00:16:40 a fucking straight up loop to do route. And of course, there was construction on the on the road. Of course. And I was like, this this fucking sucks, man, I need my maps, baby. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. That's what that's what I'm saying. But yeah, no, I fully have a tech ghost. That's why I don't want a Tesla. I'm afraid to get it. Chloe was like, I think we should get a Tesla or or something for the next car, like an electronic car. And I I'm like legit frightened that I would get it and it would explode. Hey, you know, you tell her, you tell her, you go, Chloe, we can't do it. It's basically a Bose speaker. I promise you she'll go, got it. I'm sorry. I even brought it up. She'll completely understand.
Starting point is 00:17:26 Yeah, I get that. Okay. And is there anything to touch? I've heard that. No, apparently not. Dude, it's like, it's like a beats pill with an engine. All right. That's a beat. Exactly. I guess I keep hearing that. Huh. When I go on Twitter, well, the thing is, when it starts to die, when you're out there and it and it fails, it's like, it might as well be a pair of headphones. Oh, yeah, it might as well be over the ear. Turn the Bluetooth off and on. You have to like, you hard reset your fucking car. You're like out there hard resetting this thing. And I'm like, no, and it has auto drive control. And so you're like, well, what happens? What the fuck is going on? What if your fucking engine block breaks? What if your carburetor pops or
Starting point is 00:18:10 your car can see you? You can't even get it towed. I can't even choose who towed it. Yeah. And then all of a sudden, like all the weird videos you downloaded from Lime Wire start to pop up on the screen. Yeah. I heart deep throat is popping up. Right. I don't want people seeing that. Yeah. All the stains in the car. Come on. The guys out there to help you fix your car. Morpheus downloads. Well, Kyle, you weren't bringing up an interesting thing. Is there a triple A for specifically Tesla's? Or do they send out the same dude who's, you know. This part of the company, it's up to you. It's good. It's just like a gig squad guy rolls up in his Tesla. Let me take a look at this. You can't choose who is towing you, right? You know what I mean? Like,
Starting point is 00:18:56 Yeah, sure. Like you can't. No, you just hit the app. I mean, this part is kind of dope. But this is the part that's a catch 22. You hit the app, you say, I have problems. And then what happened to me recently is they're like, we're going to just leave your car, leave your car. And then you get a ride wherever you're at, and you just leave your fucking car and we'll come pick it up when we have time. Adam's already like, sounds awesome. What is wrong with that? You just leave it with the keys. What don't you? They can hack it. It was weird when I was out and I was going to dinner up in Calistoga and it was like all of a sudden I have, there was no cabs. There was no, I had to leave this thing on the side of the road and it was in the middle of nowhere at like 11 o'clock.
Starting point is 00:19:34 I'm in the middle of nowhere. And then you just hitchhiked to the nearest Barbies. What's the difference? I'm sorry. We got a ride. We did. We found a ride. Okay, look, you've got whopper, whopper, junior, whopper, double whopper. Wait, but so if you're in a regular ice combustion engine car and it breaks down, what's the difference? You can call any tow truck to come pick you up. You can call the nearest tow truck to come get you. Right. You can't do that. Yeah, you could do anything with your phone. You can't get a Tesla towed? No. No, you have to, they have to send there because it's, you can't unlock the wheels. You can't just grab the car. You have to go in and program it.
Starting point is 00:20:20 The wheels lock. What are we watching on the screen? I'll grab it. It's a fucking computer. It's turned off. Yeah, but can't you put it into neutral or something? Yeah, you put it in neutral. Sure. So that's kind of annoying that you can't just get it towed to where you want it to be. Yeah, that's weird. You have to wait for Tesla to get out there. So really you, you better not be driving somewhere super remote because this is where I, this is where I ran into like that. But if I may, Adam, if I may. You may. Hey, Ders, you may. Thank you. At least you know what's going to a Tesla certified like place as opposed to like those classic nineties movies where they're like, well, I looked at it and it looks like
Starting point is 00:20:58 it's going to be here for about a week and a half minutes. It's going to cost you about $2,300. No, you're right. You're right. That's a good point. Unless that pretty little wife of yours over there. They're like, what? What is happening? Honey, run. And I still, yeah, it is, you're right because that's the other side. That's the other side of it. Every nineties movie. This, keep this guy's highway robbery. Unless that tall drink of water. Honey, what do you think? I'm not leaving you here. Honey, what do you think? I know what I think, but what do you think? Got a birdie mouth. You can walk a couple of miles of the road to help you out. I'm not leaving you here. It's fine. I'm going to be fine. It's fine. He seems like a nice guy. I mean, while he's just
Starting point is 00:21:41 cranking down in the corner. No, he seems great. What do you mean? Cleaning the oil off the hands like looking at his hands like, yeah, it's going to be about 23. Unless you leave that pretty little wife of yours once you stay here with the girl. Honey, I'm not leaving you. What? No, he seems great. Meanwhile, he's just twisting his nipple. Right. Yeah. He's just trying to twist the head off his dog. I would love to watch everyone's audition for that role. Just the likes. Yeah, who could be the creepiest? I don't know. I feel like Derz has a, he could pull off a good creep. Look at him. Look at her. The mustache helps right now. With that mustache, I feel, you got a little, yeah, that helps. Derz is good because he can turn off his eyes. Kyle, I feel like,
Starting point is 00:22:25 is he's central casting choice, first choice. I feel Kyle's first choice as far as central casting goes. But I think Blake would also have a pretty fun take on the character. Thank you. Well, you had me at the twist in the nipples. I don't think I can turn off my eyes like Derz. Like go dead in the eyes? Right. Well, one of them will. Yeah, look at him. His eyes can go dead. It's like Undertaker. 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. And I've spent my career exploring the three pound universe in our heads. On my new podcast, I'm going to explore the relationship between our brains and
Starting point is 00:23:20 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 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
Starting point is 00:24:16 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? 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 2 of Betrayal on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Between April 1971 and September 1972, six young black girls were snatched off the streets in Washington DC. It took four murders before the police finally realized that one person was responsible.
Starting point is 00:25:16 I will admit the others when you catch me if you can. Signed freeway fan. This child was laying on the side of the road. It appeared that she was probably either dragged out of the car or thrown out of the car. The person said, I murdered your daughter. The killer believed that he may have been seen by the mother. That guy is, he's out of sync with even the worst people. I thought that they would catch him. I thought it was just a matter of time. Is it possible that the killer is still alive? Listen to Freeway Phantom on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Remember how the Fairly Brothers always had like that like, they almost had their own like
Starting point is 00:26:07 players, their own little stable of actors that they put in every movie and there's one guy who'd be like, what was that fucking guy? That dude was into everything. He was so good. But he played like this. I think he played this mechanic role. I don't know if I know who you're talking about. He knows it. They do have a stable. I don't know. But yeah, I liked how I feel like a lot of old like 90s comedy guys did that. Like the Sandler does that. We're the same guys are in a lot of his movies. Shout out to your boy. And the Fairly Brothers did that. Yeah. He's the same ensemble. Yeah, we were going to do that with Wayman. But remember our boy who we were going to put in? We were going to do that with the workaholic movies. Tried, failed. I found out that the dad
Starting point is 00:26:52 from Kindergarten Cop was from like Mobile when I was filming there. They were like, you know, nobody ever came out of Mobile except for that guy. And I was like, yeah, crisp. I was like, yo, that's the best dude to ever come out. And he's in the Fairly Brothers. The dad from Kindergarten, the like the Dominic. I'm your father guy. Oh, that guy's the best. I know. And he's from Mobile. We've talked about him. He's basically TK. He's Thomas Kellogg. But he's there. Thomas Kellogg. Let us in big movies. But he was in a bunch of Fairly Brothers movies. He was one of their like players. Got a little thing about him. Yeah. I love that. And Three O'Clock High legendary movie if you've
Starting point is 00:27:32 never seen Three O'Clock High. I have not seen that. Is that a John Cusack? Cusack. No, but it's an 80s movie. John Cusack. John Cusack? Cusack movie. I'm a Cusack. Cusack? Cusack? Yeah, it's about like a kid who like bumps into the bully and the bully's like, I'm going to kick the shit out of you at three o'clock. Yeah. So then he's got the entire school day to like get out of it. And then they redid that movie with Charlie Day and Ice Cube. Absolutely. Trash. A ridiculously stupid movie. Right. Didn't they try to redo that movie? It was bad. Oh, it was called Fist Fight. Yeah. They made that movie called Fist Fight. Fist Fight. Yeah. I feel like that one didn't work quite as well as they wanted it to. Better title, Three O'Clock High. I mean, it's better.
Starting point is 00:28:15 Oh no. Well, yeah. I guess it's a play on High Noon. Right. I know what Fist Fight's about to be. I'm not sure I know what Three O'Clock High is. That's why it's better. Well, it's based on High Noon. Three o'clock. Well, that's why it's better, Blake. No. That's right. You're one of those guys. I need my movies to be called Plane. P-L-A-N-E. Sorry. I saw it with Rod's Man the other day. What did you see? Plane? Plane. Plane movie. What is this movie? Explain to me what this is. What do you think it is, bitch? Okay, bitch. Talk to me, bitch. What is it? It's a Plane goes down in the Philippines, and then they got like survived. He's like guerrilla dudes are coming after them. And it's called Plane? Oh, that's not what I thought it was about. Just kidding.
Starting point is 00:29:00 I don't like you anymore. Burn! We're breaking it. We're breaking up. It's done. It's over. I'm not saying you're breaking it. I'm saying we're breaking up. Yeah. Should we tell them? It's Gerard Butler. It's basically Gerard Butler doing one of his like, is this thing on? Straight to streaming movies or whatever. But this one went to theaters, and I went with a bunch of comedy writers, which you guys know is not like my thing to do to like go to a movie. A movie and shit all over it live. Right. That's going to be loud. Like continuously the entire time while everyone else is trying to watch it for real. Yeah, they're like, I actually really like Gerard Butler. I actually think Gerard Butler has like kind of a cool career. I like that he's just like, you know
Starting point is 00:29:38 what? Fuck it. I'm going to, I like acting. I like being on set. I like making movies. They're not putting me in A-list big movies, but they are putting me in, in these like just big action movies. I'm like, it's fun. I wish more people... Did you say big? Yeah, right. Well, big, but like he did a lot of... He's 300. Well, there wasn't he in, he was in big action movies, wasn't he? Like a law by... 300. Yeah, he's 300. And he did a lipis falling down and, and whatever the other falling down was, and he's built a career. Look, there's no doubt. Homie has a career. So yes, those are the movies, those are the movies that kind of took him into that world of like, essentially just financing a movie and then just getting like... Yeah. And Liam, Liam, what's his
Starting point is 00:30:25 name? Gallagher. Neeson. The older guy. Neeson. Gallagher. Yeah, Liam Neeson. He's kind of doing the same thing now where you're just like, it's another... That's because he told everybody that he wanted to fight black dudes in his dreams and they were like, you can go that way. Wait, he said that? You can go that way and make those movies and he was like, okay. What did he say? Yeah, he had some controversial things he said for sure. Look, I'm getting this wrong for sure. Well, you shouldn't allow every, every old man, you shouldn't give every old man a microphone and let them just go out. Allegedly. Because they're going to say some wild shit. He was being interviewed and said something about like, somebody in his family was like attacked by somebody who happened
Starting point is 00:31:06 to be black and he was so angry by it that he went out walking and he was like, he's like, I mean, I don't know what would have happened if I ran into somebody black. I think I would have like beat them up or tried to kill them and they were like, what? He's like, I didn't and they were talking about racism and whatever and they were like... Sir, you're on the Comic-Con red carpet. They're like, you're live at Comic-Con. Oh, shit. How old is that? I'm just promoting the wolf movie. I'm Josh from MTV. This is a very, right. This is angry, sad, confused. We're just doing a fun bit. I was angry and I was sad. So yeah, after that, they were pretty much like, so the movies you're going to make are over this
Starting point is 00:31:56 way. And by the way, he still makes a grip because nobody in like a ton of countries gives a shit about what he said and he's still making money. Yeah. Well, what an absolute insane thing to say, but I hope you just was saying it out of context. Well, but he was just saying like, how it affected him that he was like, I can see how these things happened. They got it. It didn't happen to me. How old is that dude? How old is Liam Neeson? Let's check. He's got to be 75, 77. Yeah. Maybe say that to your therapist or something, not Josh from MTV. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, you got to say that to someone else. Right. It looks like he was born in... Oh, great. Math. 70. No, that's his early life. 70. 63.
Starting point is 00:32:45 He was born in 63. I think he's older than that, right? He's older than that. 52. 52. There we go. Sorry. 52. There we go. We got there. He's aged 70. Okay. He's an old dude. He's aged 70. Dude, that was tripping me out. You know what, I feel like when we're 70, though, we're like not that far off from 70. Like, Derz is almost 70. Like, I feel... Damn near. We're going to... It's going to be there quicker than we think. And then we're not going to feel old. No. We're going to be like, but we're still cool and young. Yes. Blake will just be carrying a skateboard. I already feel old. You're talking about your groin exploding. What are you talking about? Well, my body will shut
Starting point is 00:33:25 down, but mentally, I'm still going to be a dumb, dumb idiot. Yeah, but I can't wait for Blake to have that hair gray. I'm still going to be just doing chucks and gigs up here. Oh, Adam. Wait, that reminds me, dude. I saw that footage of you getting your fucking, like, back cracked and shit, and I really want to know what that process was. Where? Is this on Twitter? Oh, yeah. I posted it on Instagram. It wasn't... It was a hot Twitter, dude. It was trending. You didn't see that. I didn't see this. No, did you post this on Instagram? Yes. It was on your... I didn't. I did not. Someone did. How the hell did I see it? The chiropractor did. Okay. The chiropractor did, and then it became like a viral thing. Oh, I forgot Blake wakes up, Googles you, then does stuff. Right. He's got the
Starting point is 00:34:08 Google word. Yeah, he looks at my name. Now I can see it. The bummer was... I also, like, was in so much pain that day because I'm still in a lot of pain from my groin and back. Let me get in there. I was going to this chiropractor in Charleston. He was really... He was doing great work, and so I saw this guy online and hit him up, and he was like, he was in Newport Beach. And so he's like, come on down. And I came on down, and he did the craziest shit. He put my neck in like a strap, and then like elongated me, and I honestly, I felt taller. It was crazy. He did all kinds of... I still was in a lot of pain afterwards, so it didn't really help in the same way that... More pain. It was actually in a weird way in more pain. It was in a ton of more pain.
Starting point is 00:34:55 It's so much more, actually. Newer. You're a fucking disaster, my guy. No, I mean, it just didn't... It didn't work in the way I really wanted it to, but... You thought I was going to be a magic bullet? What do you think it was going to be a off switch? Did you think it was going to be a off switch where it's like, crack, crack, crack, crack? God, I'm looking for the off switch, man. This pain is like... It's a year... I'm a year in to not being able to do shit. I got to send you to my guy. Please. Adam, I had to get an MRI this week on my back because I got major fucking shit happening. Now they're like, you've got to go talk to a surgeon, and I'm like, oh my god, really? Hey, what happened? Because of pickleball? No. On your back? Why? Because of pickleball?
Starting point is 00:35:35 It's not because of pickleball. There's like... Potato chips. Oh, this dude, I've been going like for the last two weeks. It's got to be the potato chips. It actually is because this dude's like, you have like... I knew it. So I'm numb and like... You have a ruffle. I have like a growth on my fucking back. A Frito. I have a growth on my fucking spine, dude. No. Yeah. Well, that's not good. From ruffles? I don't know what the fuck it is. I just found out today. Okay. Wait, what are those things? Chili tooth Fritos? Well, Jesus. Oh, that's scary, dude. I'm sorry. Yeah. Like a bone spur? Is that what they're called? No, he said it's like a fatty tissue. It's like some... So it is the chips. It's the fatty tissue, bro. Oh my god. You got a fucking crunchy Cheeto on your back?
Starting point is 00:36:14 They can yield in one spot. Yeah. I don't know enough about it, but dude said you might want to talk about the surgery because where this is pressing, if it grows, like he's like... First of all, he said there's nothing to worry about, except if it does grow, when you get older, you might be incontinent. What is incontinent? Like you got to shit through a bag? Like you shit your pants and stuff. Like you can't control your fucking shit, bro. Isn't that normal? Well, that's hella funny. Look at one side. Which I see out of any of us, I see that mostly for you, Kyle. So I think that that would be the coolest for you out of the four of us. Wait, is it pee or poo or just poo? I think it's just poo. I think you can still hold your pee. They're different tracks, bro. They're different
Starting point is 00:36:53 tracks. Wow. Those are different. Those are different pipes. Well, yeah, then take care of that for sure, dude. That's scary. I know. I was tripping. I was tripping. I'm getting another MRI today, too, on my back to try to figure out the bummer about my groin. He was like, dude, he was like, yo, bro, fuck, I don't know. Dr. Bro's arc here. He says it's a... I keep forgetting the name of it, but it's basically like the meniscus of your hip joint is torn. My hipness. Basically, he was like, you're a bitch, bro, because he's like, a lot of times this is torn and people don't feel it. And he's like, you're experiencing a lot of pain, and I don't understand why this is hurting you this bad. Sanctiv. And so we're going to do some injection. I know. He was like, basically, you're
Starting point is 00:37:42 a bitch. But he was like, essentially, he was like, I wish this were a hernia, because then I would know exactly how to treat it. I don't know how to treat this. He's like, I've never seen this shit in my life. So now I have to go to another specialist, too. Fuck. Someone that deals with some other shit. I fuck if I know. Meniscus. Yeah, I'm getting plugged in up here to like my general practitioner and all that stuff. And just like, I'm like, oh God, here we go. Plug your Tesla in, bitch. I'm gonna find out. Dude, as soon as you start to walk down the track, you're like, oh, everything's fucked up on me. Yeah, man, just don't go. Just throw away this body. But isn't it good? It made me feel good. I'm like, you know what, fucking, what is this shit in my back? Okay,
Starting point is 00:38:23 but you know what? I'm young enough, I could do a surgery. It hasn't gotten crazy yet. This is the time to go in and fucking dig, right? Yeah. This is it. Dig deep. This is it. And then you get prepped for the next fucking, you know, 10 years of your life or however long it's gonna be. I like Blake's angle of like, just don't go. Just ride it out. If something hurts, just feel like, just bury it. Don't let anybody in at all. Yeah, man. Well, that, by the way, was Isaac's suggestion to me when I was like, dude, I'm in so much pain in my groin. He's like, you'll probably be good. I have a marmarita. And I'm like, it's science. I don't know, dude. I'm like, I'm in a lot of pain and I've been in pain for months and months now. He's like, it'll probably just go away. And I'm
Starting point is 00:39:03 like, maybe, maybe not though, it's been months and months and months and months. Drop him. Drop. So he's fired. Dude, also, when, as soon as this guy said, I got a fucking thing on my back and he was like, you could be in continent later on in life if you don't handle it. That's the poop pants. I'm like, is this- That's the poop one. Why I've had fucking issues with like my digestion. And he's like, yep. You're pickleball. And I'm like, no fucking way, bro. Like this thing could possibly be that. Can you imagine how good a pickleball you'd be if you weren't shit in your pants all the time? You know. So what, so what do you mean you're digestion? So like, what, because your poops
Starting point is 00:39:36 are like extra smelly or like, what's the deal? It's not smelly. It's just they're not as regular as I want them to be. You know, they're not smelly smelly. Every shit stinks. They show me a shit that doesn't stink. Okay. So yeah, what do you mean you're digestion? I didn't know that you have like problems with your digestion. Well, I've talked about before my fissures and my hammies. And what are hammies? My hemorrhoids, you know, but, but this could all be walked back. Oh, I didn't know that those were digestion related. Yeah, they are. Okay. I didn't either. I thought that's just when you had a big old turd. Either you have diarrhea or you don't. This has been a very intimate conversation. Kind of forgot we were podcasting here. Sorry, I thought fissures
Starting point is 00:40:16 and hammies were when you split your ass all over when you were straining so hard that your asshole explodes. Yeah, that's why I asked him if this could be affecting anything going on in that region. And he's like, yeah, bro. Yeah, good, bro. This shit is for sure, bro. And then he said, you're a fucking disaster, my god. You also went to Dr. Brozark. I go to Dr. Brozark as well, dude. Yes. Yes, hey, dude. Fucking disaster, my god. Yeah, bro. Fuck. Okay, Kyle. I hell forgot we were podcasting. I hella forgot we were podcasting, guys. No, let's just, let's just get out of it. I remember, brother. You gotta, don't be the Liam Neeson. You're just talking with your buddies about your bodily issues. Yeah, let's get out of this. Don't be the Liam Neeson of the pod.
Starting point is 00:41:05 Let's get out of this. So you're saying if you don't cut this Cheeto off your spine, you're gonna start shitting your pants in how many years? I didn't get into that. I was just like, I need hard lines. How long can I ride it out? I'll let you know. I guess I gotta follow this up now because we are podcasting. So I'll let you know. Fuck. Damn, dude. That's crazy. Yeah, I mean, I'm afraid for you, dude. Thank you. Thank you. Scary stuff. He said it was nothing to worry about, though, but you know, thoughts and prayers. Yeah, thank you. Thank you. Thoughts and prayers. Hi, I'm David Eagleman. I have a new podcast called Inner Cosmos on iHeart. I'm a mineral scientist and an author at Stanford University, and I've spent my career exploring

So join me weekly to uncover how your brain steers your behavior, your perception, and your reality.

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 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. Listen to season two of Betrayal on the iHeart radio app,

Well, that's disappointing that that that back cracking didn't fully heal you out because those are those like back crackers that you watch on Instagram where it literally looks like you die for a second because they crack your neck so fucking hard. I was like watching it through my fingers. It was terrifying. It was pretty fucking scary, especially when they're like
Starting point is 00:45:02 breaking out like tools like the strap around my neck. I'm like, this is this is how I die. Right. Yeah. And I was in so much pain that day. I was like, those YouTube videos are perverted, perverted. I wish it worked. Maybe I need to go more regularly, but I have a good physical therapist and I just need to keep at it, I think. Do the work. Do the work. It sucks, but it is what it is. Just do the work. What would you like in the feeling to immediately after? Are you getting like a dose of euphoria or is it like? I like it. Or are you like? No, it's like, it's like you stepped in front of a truck and then someone pulled you back right before you were brutally killed. It was like, I'm dead and then you didn't die and you're like,
Starting point is 00:45:47 oh, you don't know what that's like. Adam's the only one who doesn't know what that's like. I don't know what that's like. Yeah, I just stood, I just stood in front of it. So it's just like you're getting yoinked. I wish that was what Adam always used as an example. Well, it kind of feels like you almost got hit by a cement truck. In the Macy's David parade, there's a lot of nerves. It's almost like you're standing in front of a truck and your best friend pulls you out of the way just in the nick of time. Just in time. Wish I knew what that felt like. Okay, and back to you at the studio. Oh, well, by the way, this is the year of parades for me. Yeah, because I'm doing the, I am the king of Bacchus, which is a huge parade in New Orleans.
Starting point is 00:46:36 And I'm going to be the king of the parade. And the list is incredible. Like their list of past kings are like Dom Delawines. Whoa, that's big. Wait, wait, wait. And from, was he an American tail? Yes, he was. That's my reference. Yeah, he's the fucking cat. Yeah, well, that's like old. And then, and then it goes like in the 80s, it's like Hulk Hogan and John Claude Van Damme. Right if we did hard target, probably. And Val Kilmer and Gandolfini. And then like Elijah Wood and John Aston back to back years. And then Anthony Mackie, Will Ferrell, John C. Riley. And then here we are in 2023 and it's me, baby. Okay. And it's going to be a true epic throwdown. What the hell is it? It's just, what are your duties? It's essentially just a,
Starting point is 00:47:39 yeah, my duties. Essentially, I'm like, I really, I don't know. I'm like excited to find out. I think like Friday night, there's going to be like a big party, a big welcoming party. And then Saturday's pretty chill. And then Sunday is the parade. And the parade is like five hours long. I'm just aggressively throwing out beads. And then there's a giant party that lasts to like five AM. So I think it's going to be like a true epic throwdown. And by the way, the guy told me he's like, only one king has made it till the very end on Sunday night. Anthony Mackie. And that was, and that was Anthony Mackie. How did you know? Ders, you got it. Was it? What he paced himself. Yeah. Yeah, you got it. I knew it. Yeah, it was. It was Anthony Mackie. He's a pro. And I'm like,
Starting point is 00:48:28 oh, shit, dude, I have to, I guess he's a New Orleans local. So like, he knew what to do. He knew what to expect. So yeah, I'm, I'm, I plan on going long, hard and strong. Yeah, I don't know if pacing is your thing. I'm kind of stoked. I knew it was Anthony Mackie. Yeah, dude. He's a party pro. Well, yeah, the thing is though, I don't need to pace, dude. My body takes up just gobbles up alcohol and I piss it right out, man. Right. And then I, Adam is like Sandman. You're not that guy. Adam is the Sandman of the friend group. He can just kind of absorb and ship, shape, shape. Yeah, I just absorb it. That's cool, dude. Just have another. And it's, so is it heavy partying all three days or you save some in the tank for the last day? Like how do you pace this out? Come on,
Starting point is 00:49:13 you know our guy. What are you doing? Well, I know, I think what it is, is we get in third, I get in Thursday night and there's like a little, the restaurant. What's cool is like, since I'm the king, they straight up close restaurants down. Wow. That's nice. It's good. It's going to be crazy. Yeah. So it's going to be like nuts. And so Thursday, my guess is we'll go out big Thursday. We'll go out big Friday, Saturday. It'll be like daytime stuff. And then at nighttime kind of crash early because Sunday is like the true main event is what the plan is. My guess is that it's going to be full on the entire time. Nucky grandma. That's just my guess. That's just my guess. Yeah. If I had to guess,
Starting point is 00:49:57 is the rolling me back into the room Sunday morning. That's going to be so you're, you're confident, but, but I, you know, I'm going to go to the children's hospital and, uh, and you know, see the kids and you're confident you're going to make it. What's up, guys? Who listens to the pod? Yeah. I've never kind of, I've never not made anything. No, I mean, like you're confident you're going to make all days like you're going to do the Anthony Mackie. Yeah. Fuck yeah, bro. I've never not. Okay. Yeah. I mean, what do you think? Do you think I would, I would ever quit? I don't know. Do you see give up in me? I don't know. Only if they make you get up early. Is there a time where you have to get up? Yeah. What are these call
Starting point is 00:50:34 times? That's what I mean. I'm like, I'm like, you know, well they were, they were like, no, it'll be your, it won't be early. It'll be like 9 30 10 a.m. And I'm like, what if it's noon? And they go, hey, you're the king. It can be noon. And I'm like, great. Whoa. Okay. Great. Yeah. Wow. How interesting. They're just going to change all the clocks. Yeah. Actually, it's not that time. Yeah, dude. Dang, that's going to be fucking wild. Yeah. So I think, I think it'll all be very, very doable. I've never done any sort of Mardi Gras at all. I don't know much about the traditions, but it seems like it's very fun. I bet it's a very buzz ball friendly atmosphere. Oh yeah. Absolutely. That's what I'm saying. If I get like a
Starting point is 00:51:14 buzz ball, little beads, that could be sick. Yeah. Get your buzz ball on, baby. Big, biggies. Biggies. Oh, wow. That would cool, dude. Yeah. Okay. We got an opportunity. Biggiesy. So what's going on? Are you talking with buzz ball behind our backsplank? Is there, I heard rumors that you might be talking to buzz ball. Yeah. We had a little conference call last week. We got some things in the work over here. This guy's going corporate. Oh my God. I'm feeling good at it. He's, as the kids say, securing the bag of buzz balls. Yes. That's great. Yes. Twitter will be a buzz. We're trying to trend, baby. Let's go. Dude, I love that for you. I mean, smooths, they're packing up the smooths for us, guys. I want you to taste it. Oh, we got a smooth
Starting point is 00:51:58 boy. I want everyone to know. I'm excited to sip on a smooth. Smooth VBB. What up? Get a little sploosh. If you get a little sploosh right here, it's not a big deal. And Kyle, you're riding the liquid death train all the way into the station or what, baby? Bro, yeah. Just like every one of us. Yeah, dude. That's cool. I like that, man. Wow. We got a lot of big things popping in the new year. We do. Yeah. Not the movie, but a lot of other things. Hey, Kyle, can you put beer into your mouth and then spit it out? Or does it get? Wait, what it just asked me, this is a good one. Can you drink? Can you put a shot of alcohol in your mouth and then spit it out or not? Like mouthwash it? Yeah, it's like your question is, what are the lines?
Starting point is 00:52:44 But why would you? What are the lines? Your question is, where is the line? Where is the line? For an alcoholic. Yeah. Like, can you just wet your. I don't know. I know that I will smell. If I want to partake and be like, oh, what is that wine like? I'll fucking throw my nose up in it and fucking smell that shit. I don't feel like you're the type of person that like, if you were around it, you would absolutely need to do it, especially at this point, right? It's been like a damn decade, right? Yeah, no, I can smell it. I don't know. I mean, I have never taken a drink. I've never taken a sip and then not swallowed it. I haven't. I've just smelled. That's it. That's my boy. That's my guy.
Starting point is 00:53:25 Yeah, you are a swallower. Hell yeah. So I don't know. I don't know where that would be. I mean, that's an interesting question. All right. Yeah, I don't know. Because I want you to taste, I want you to taste the consistency of the smooch. And I'm just wondering if like, you can like, put it in your mouth and then spit it out. Well, what you could do is you could put it in a Ziploc bag for me and I can go ahead. Oh, you just put your hand in and go like, those are eyeballs. Like a haunted house? Yeah, okay, sure. Put it in a Ziploc bag and then I'll put the part of the Ziploc bag in my mouth and kind of like taste it and then I'll smell at the same time. Now we're getting somewhere. And then I got the consistency and the smell and I'm pretty much
Starting point is 00:54:04 there. Okay. Yeah, I like that. That's perfect. Hey, you know what? I'm going to do the same thing too then. I want to do that too. We'll slap the bag. Is that still happening? Slap in the bag? That was a cool trend, I feel. Somewhere. Somewhere it's got to be. Absolutely. It should be. I feel like that's a tailgating thing. A lot of people slap the bag. Slap the bag. Slap in the bag is where you take the bladder out of the box of wine? Yes. Yes. Take that big ass, indestructible bag. The utter. Yes, slurp it and slap it. What is it? What do you do? You just slurp it and then... You just take it and you slap it the bag. That's it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Pour wine out. Okay. And it just hit it hard. Yeah. But you can really smack those motherfuckers. I know. It's really cool,
Starting point is 00:54:49 Kyle. It's so cool. No, I remember smacking it hard. I just thought there was like a number thing where you had to smack it once or twice or harder, soft or something. Maybe. What I like is at the Iowa, Nebraska football game, they were doing this thing called getting basted, where they have a turkey baster and they fill it up with booze and then they go around squirting it in people's mouths and then you say, let's get basted. I'm like, hell yeah, dude. I'm into that. Winning. Like I really like this. There's no like point system or anything. It's just kind of drinking out of a baster. It's just some mom. Yeah. The point is, if you're the drunkest, you win. Oh yeah. You get the most basted. Yeah. You would love, you would win, Blake. You'd do great.
Starting point is 00:55:31 You're the master basted. Yeah. I wouldn't baste up. You'd be a wild success. Well, I don't know. Adam, it would be between Adam and Blake. It would be between you two, I think, right? John Baystow, baby. Yeah, I would say. Like that. What a body. John Baystow. Speaking of John Baystow. Any takebacks? Apologies? Any epic slams? I have an apology to James Cameron. Okay. Wait, is this a prepared speech? He's pulling out a piece of paper. Should we turn the mics down and you talk just to James individually? Is that cool yet? Hey, Jimmy, I just want to apologize. I just yesterday finally saw Avatar and I'm sorry about that. Honestly, wild that it took you that long. I know. You're maybe the biggest Avatar fan that I know.
Starting point is 00:56:24 Basically, I wanted to like bring the kids, right? Like I didn't want to just go see it and then be like, man, I saw Avatar. My kid's been like, what the fuck? Right? Yeah, good, good dad. So what? Now, are your kids old enough to appreciate how dope it was? Because it's long. Yeah, it's super long. So like my real youngster was like, by when there was like 45 minutes left, he didn't shut up the entire time. He was just like, Whopper Whopper. He was like Whopper Whopper single double. But it was tight. It was cool. Who would you say liked it the most? Well, they both came home and started drawing shit immediately. The dopest thing about these movies, like they're not like, you know, super game changer stories or characters or whatever.
Starting point is 00:57:11 But like, you have to go, oh yeah, none of this is real. This is all animated. It all looks real. But the animals are fucking dope. Like, I don't know, I just think it's fucking cool. It's so cool how they make that movie. Whenever I see behind the scenes footage of like, James Cameron being the animals and like right there next to them. And they're just like in this space. And he's like, using this giant head to be a placeholder to like sniff them and smell them or whatever. And then it's fucking sick, dude. He's a genius. And the the action sequences, look, look, I mean, I know if like you have a location, you can kind of map out your shit. And I know that they will like build him the location like computer wise so he can see and like
Starting point is 00:57:54 plan the shots. But you're like, how did the geography like, how does he know that they're going to fall this way when it's turning and like water's filling up this way. And now they're in this room. It's just crazy. It's just crazy. Yeah, it truly is a very impressive and incredible. And honestly, I loved the second movie. And for me, I mean, I went as an adult and I didn't have kids with me. So like I was fully immersed. I like it could have gone on longer. Whoa. And usually like a three hour movie, like I'm like the type of person that like an hour and a half in, I'm like, and let's wrap it up. Yeah, that's about that time. Like, you know, if it gets over two hours, I'm like, who the fuck do you think you are? And this this entire time I was fucking stoked.
Starting point is 00:58:45 So Team Avatar over here. Dude, hell yeah. Everybody's on the Avatar train. And my kids, I don't think they'd been to a 3D movie because they were tripping on it. Oh, yeah. They were like reaching out for stuff. Oh, oh, yeah. And I was like, you're embarrassing me. It's not. You idiots. Stop trying to grab her. Wait, but here's a question here. So there was somebody sitting behind me talking the entire time. Okay. And I was like, Jesus fucking Christ, like what the fuck is going on? Then I realized they were translating for somebody. Oh, okay. Wow. So like they were with a, I mean, from like French to English or something. Yeah, French. Yeah. It's definitely French guys, man. They're everywhere. They're everywhere. It was like an old Asian lady
Starting point is 00:59:31 and maybe her daughter or younger Asian person was like translating it, right? At least that's what I ended up figuring out because they would only talk like right after everyone talked and I'm like, Jesus, is this okay? Absolutely. Absolutely. That's not. Or what if it's like a blind person? Is it okay to hear somebody be like, okay, then now they're on the dragons? I think it's okay. They're flying. Yeah. No, I think it's okay. Let's be real. No, I think it's okay. Or do they have to sit in the way back row? Yeah. You have to wait until the movie comes out at home. No, if you need, no, because it's 3D. No, let's be real about this. You got to have the 3D experience. Was the theater packed? No, it was not packed. It was like right after school.
Starting point is 01:00:14 There should be a space for this. But you got to go to the back row, no? Yes. Yes, they do. You do. Okay. What if we have showings? What if we have showings where people go and interpret for people? Bring your translator showings? Yeah. Then you're limiting. Yeah. Translator showings. And there's just like a German guy being like, nine each. That's kind of cool. Yeah, that would be cool. Well, wait a minute. You're saying a trans show. Yeah, a trans showing. A trans showing. Well, can't you just like, when you go to Alcatraz, like when you go visit Alcatraz and shit, you put on the little like history things and you get... Yes, that would be nice. Everyone knows what it's like to visit Alcatraz. Yeah. I'm not Kyle. I've been there.
Starting point is 01:00:54 And you get the little translations. You get the headphones and it's like, you hear like the clanking of the jail doors and it's like, this is where Al Capone slept for a month before he was murdered. Yeah, dude. I got to get back to Alcatraz. That's hella fascinating. I want to go as a man. I've never been. It sounds fun. Dude. As a man. It's really cool. Let's go. Come up to the bay. Let's go to Alcatraz. Yeah. Oh, fuck yeah. Yes. Man trip to Alcatraz. All right. We're going to the rock, baby. Well, dude, I am bummed that, you know, we were planning on doing...

That's true. Yeah. Come on. Let's... I was fine. Well, here's where it comes down to. You were in Indonesia, something. We have to talk about that next pod. You're a cruise. Was he already gone? Yes, he was gone. Oh, you were already gone. It wasn't a cruise. Oh, yeah, he was. He wasn't in town. Okay. Well, debatable. When did you guys go? Let's get to the bottom of this. All right. Well, let's wrap it up and jump right back next week. Ah, fuck off. Okay. They went to my house. Tune in next week. That's another episode of... This is important.
