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 saw it in a folder, and I opened it. What the hell did I just see? Listen to season two 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, 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.

what's the most important bottom line critical thing happening on this planet. Today on This Is Important? Some people sleep like hanging upside down like Batman, right? This is the deepest we've ever been inside of Hollywood on the spot. Is that spinal fluid? Release that pressure. Buckle up. All right. Give me a hell yeah. I will say that I'm on a lot of painkillers right now, guys. Oh, no. This is a crisis in America, bud. Hey, no, I know. And this is opioids. This is an opiate.

Which one they got you on? What do they got you on? They got me a Tramadol for my hip and groin issue. Cool. So really, they took it. Why did you, you weren't, you weren't healing. So they put you on pain management. What the fuck? I'm not, dude, I'm in so much fucking pain all the time and I'm not healing. What? I'm going to physical therapy and I'm doing all the things they say and it's just not getting better. In fact, it's starting to get worse. I can't go to sleep at night. Even though I'm on fucking painkillers, pain pills,

muscle relaxers, night, night juice. I'm doing it all. Edibles. I'm doing everything. Are you the Larry Bird of our friend crew? What does that mean? Am I the Larry Bird? Yeah, what does that mean? What does that mean? Like he's balling, but then he's got to lay on the ground. Is that you? Oh, I mean, yeah, yeah, probably, yeah, probably. You got to lay on the ground. Well, I was hit by a cement truck, so I think.

Is that what he did? Would he take a break? He didn't lay on the side of the court when he wouldn't be playing, because his back was all fucked up. Oh, yeah. Oh, like he wouldn't sit on the bench. Okay. I think I've been that. Remember how I would have to like sit down and we're shooting more colleagues because my knees would hurt and shit? Like, yes, it's so annoying.

You guys were always so mad at me. That's why I wouldn't come back for another season. Yeah. We got to call it. Yeah. Ders made a hard stance. I was like, is Adam there? But I feel like I've been, I've been that guy. Is he sitting again? But now it's getting, it's getting worse because now I can't like just do regular

shit, which, which sucks butts. You think this is going to be, this is like when you get, when you're knocking on damn near 40, you're like, is this the rest of time? Yeah, I know. I'm like thinking that too. I'm like, it can't be, dude, because this is like a real amount of pain. Like I'm going to be morbidly obese. I won't get to do all the movies that I want to do.

Okay, Adam. The whale, the whale just won. It's a whale, too. Yeah, dude. Yeah. The whale, too, is to get Aaron Osski to come. Not mad at it. Get some hardware on your fucking living room.

All right. I eat because I'm on my way. Hey, have you tried? I was for chunking a ton. We all know this playing pickleball. My back was for chunking. Right. Oh, I thought you meant bad internet connection.

We're calling for chunking meaning. I thought you meant being fat. I kind of have like one little well that I dig when it comes to slang and it happens to revolve around chunking. But my back was so fucked. Interesting things. All right, go ahead. My back was fucking up every time I was playing pickleball.

Like, I was always like a, and it's like a Netflix drop. And it was like, I started doing yoga, dude. I've been doing yoga for 18 days straight now. 18 days? For what? 18 days straight. Oh, that's great. That's half a month, bro.

That's big. But this is the longest I've ever actually said, you know what? I'm going to fuck around and try and stretch. Okay, I'm going to really try and do it. Here's my question. Do you think 18 days straight out of nowhere is overkill? Like, do you want to ease into this?

No. Well, it depends on how much you're doing and how long you're going for. It's science. The routines can be set up where you can take it and actually feel your body and see how far you can go. You know what I mean? So you're your own master of your destiny or whatever.

Well, I think that would be a great idea. I'm living in a nightmare. I'm so tight on the one side of my body that I'm not able to lift my right leg up very high. Tight? When you pull a lot of the stretch, I just can't get into it. So my physical therapist is having me doing

the bitchiest little old lady stretches that you're like, I have to be able to do more than this, but if I do more than that, then I'll hurt a lot more than I do. That's where I was with my back and I still, I'm not a very good stretcher. I am not flexible at all.

And I will tell myself I'm a bitch when I do yoga. Shut up, bitch! I am noticing like a little bit of improvement, right? Like I am seeing minor improvements where it's like, wow, okay, I could flex a little bit. You can. So what are some of the, um... What's up, Blake?

What do you want to know? What are you using to do yoga? Is this like app or is this like peloton? Yes. No, I do it on YouTube. I do a, um... Is this DDT yoga? No, I'm...

DDP, DDP, DDP. DDP yoga is next. I'm yoga with Adrienne right now. I'm doing... Who's that? She's got a lovely voice. She... Dude, chill.

So what made you choose Adrienne? You just typed in yoga and then just are like, I'm following this lady. She has a nice ass. Actually, my wife told me about Adrienne years ago. Years ago. And I always kind of touch in, but I don't, I don't stick with it, you know?

I just don't stick with it. I'm a man. Don't go to a yoga studio and touch in, please. I'm a dude. Dude, yeah. Anyways, just touch it in. So Kyle, you're doing yoga by yourself at your home via YouTube. You're not going to classes?

No, I'm just doing it. I break away for like 45 minutes and do it in the gym downstairs. 45 and what kind of poses are you hitting? I'm doing it in the mornings. I'm waking up with it. That's cool. It's a good way. Get the blood flowing.

Yeah. Yo, I would love to see you do Happy Baby. Yeah. Can you show us something? Can you show us something? YouTube excludes it. I actually got really good at Happy Baby. I can kind of do it now.

Put your legs behind your head for real quick. Yeah. Can we see something? No, that's not what I... That would push me too much. I don't... I'm trying to not for chunk. Did you not catch my drift?

Did you not catch my drift? Maggie Grandma! Just show us an easy one. Can you scorpion? Can you scorpion yourself? Just show us like an easy one. What do you mean? I'm not going to show you one of my shapes.

Okay? Those shapes are for me. The shapes are for me. Okay? They're not for you. You don't get to see my shapes that I'm working on. Do one for YouTube. Do one for YouTube.

Just one shape. No. Show us a shape. Do one thing. No. Can you do the tree where your leg is against the other leg? Yeah. What do you...

Yeah. Yeah. Can you balance? I'm sitting down. I'm a shag of jelly. You're not doing it already. You're just putting it on and watching it because you think the girl is hot.

This is... I'm not doing yoga for you guys, first of all. Okay? This is the core of what this is. I'm not doing it for you. I'm not doing it for the fans. I'm not doing it for any of the listeners out there. Okay.

This is the first rule of yoga. Okay. I'm doing it for myself. Okay. This is the first rule of yoga. This is my rule. It's my rule of yoga. It's...

And I'm doing it for me. What are some of your other rules of yoga? Yeah, what's rule two? Yeah, what's the rule two? 69, dudes! Okay. Okay. You want them?

Rule one. Yeah. Do it for yourself. Yeah. Okay. Okay. I got that one. I understood.

Asked the answer. Sure. Rule two. Take baby little steps. Don't push yourself. Okay. All right. Baby little steps.

Yeah, don't push yourself. Baby little steps. For sure. I remember hearing that. Take baby little steps. Okay, take baby little steps. And the third... Okay.

The third is... I'm going to take this from Tony Horton. Keep pushing play, okay? Keep pushing play. Okay. Keep what? Keep pushing play. Keep pushing play.

Tony Horton is... P90X. The leader of Beachbody. Yes. Dot com. P90X fame. And that's what he would say is, every day you keep pushing play to his videos

to listen to him go. Okay. Because once you start, you're in it. Yeah. You know what I mean? You're in it. Sure. Yeah.

Sure. But... And then skip ahead. What's the ninth rule? What's the ninth rule? Ders has problems. No, I got no problems. If you're not going to...

Pull back. Name... If you're not going to name all the rules... I do. You're not going to do the positions for us. What is your favorite position? What do you get the most relief for... Joy.

What makes you feel the best? Yeah. Let's see here. I think I like laying on my back. Corpse Puzzle. His butt fucker is napping. I don't know if that's sleeping. For real?

Yeah. Oh, my God. Yeah, you do that before you get out of bed in the morning. See, you just lay there like a corpse for... Yeah. I like to lay on my back and just kind of... Your favorite pose is Corpse Puzzle. Yo.

I love this dude. Wow. Yeah, I'd have to say that that's probably my favorite pose. Yeah. And it's your favorite because... You can watch TV while you do it. Yeah, you can lay down. It's because it's laying down.

It's nice. It's like... It's easy to eat the ice cream. Corpse Puzzle with Ben and Jerry's. It's a little collab you got going. Frozen yoga. I've been eating some polio. Okay, so you like...

Yes, points! T-B-C-Y-O-G-A, baby. God, by the way, that's the best answer and the worst answer because it's the best answer because it's hilarious, but it's the worst answer because I don't know where to go from there. I'm sorry.

Sorry, buddy. Just leave. Well, what are you guys doing anything? Are you guys feeling the death march that we're all on? Yeah, it's creeping. It's creeping. The old age that we're creeping into, creeping into middle age

where everything is going to fall apart at some point? My body's fine. Some quicker than others. My body's fine. I'm losing my mind. Oh, shit. Blake's laughing so hard. It's science.

I'm losing my mind. Yeah, I'm not sure what's real. And what makes you think you're losing your mind? Um, it's just like... I'm not remembering things correctly. I mean, the podcast will serve as my death note. Like, I've obviously been losing my mind for all 130 episodes we've done.

He is so dumb! Yeah, dude. It's over. It's over for me. Are you really like forgetting things and it's getting in the way of your everyday life? No, not that it doesn't. Oh, he's lying.

No, I function. I function fine, but I do feel like I... He's trying to function. I try to function. I can still drive. I can still operate machinery. Oh, good. But yeah, I do feel like I'm starting to see things.

Yeah, well, good, because you're 39 years old. You should be able to drive and see things. Yeah, what are you seeing, dude? Bro, just like... Like, what, like halos or something? Are you seeing halos around lights? I think that's... No, it's just like I see like bad circumstances

and they're like very real to me and they like scare me. Like... Oh, like fear rules everything around me? Premenitions, you know? Like, I'll be true. Blake, Adam, your face is telling me. But that's anxiety, Blake. That's anxiety.

That's just the ever creeping fucking anxiety bug. Yeah, but he didn't have it before and now he's got it. My anxiety is worsening, I feel. It's worsening. So you look at things and you're like, everything could just go horribly wrong. Dude, I have that too. Yeah, I just see, like I'll be driving on the freeway

and I just see the fatal crash that I'm about to get into. God damn it. I do too. I have this shit too, Blake. So we lost both you guys to anxiety? Yeah, we're out, bro. Sorry. Yeah, that sucks.

Because the other day I was like, none of my friends have anxiety and it's fucking great. Yeah, no. Oh, yeah, no. I'm crippling. It's a bagel. Yeah, anxiety is actually like a fucking hard ass thing to, when you see that scenario,

it's a hard thing to get past that scenario in your own mind. That's what's cool about me, though, is I have crippling anxiety, but I still enter the world and I function in it. And that's what makes me really funny and zany and fun is that I'm like... Yeah, you push through it. I'm just hurtling over all my anxiety as I talk to everybody.

This is why I need Adam. Right, okay. We'll see. The thing is, I don't think you have... I think I know other people that do have crippling anxiety. Okay. And I think you're not at that level. Like, I have some friends that are so robotic that you're like,

how are you surviving? Wow, dude. Right, exactly. We're not there. We're not there. We are out in the world. Like agoraphobia. You're talking about people who truly can't leave the house.

Or who are always sick, always going to a doctor because they're always something's wrong. Even when things like maybe aren't wrong. And they're always thinking something is about to happen to them. Right. And I don't think that that's you. Or like when you travel with somebody who's just losing their mind because they're like, we could miss a plane.

And you're like, no, but then you get on another plane. It doesn't matter. And then we just get another plane and it'll be fine. Yeah. What happens if we have to stay the night? Then you just get a hotel room and you can stay the night and do it tomorrow. Yeah.

And we just... Yeah, that's a new kind of thing for me because I have like... It's a new thing to be able to like pivot and move and be like, yeah, yeah, we're fine. Because it was always like, gotta fucking do this. Yeah. I gotta be call time 6 a.m.

What? When? What's an example? What's an example of you that I guess I just never picked up on? I mean, it's Kyle, right? Water trash. Yes. Kyle, Richard.

Yes. Yes. Carl. Carl. Yeah. I was your scene partner for years. Scene partner. I don't have those, but okay.

Scene partner. Because you didn't see him. Never looked at him. But what have you been doing? You'll see him. What's an example of you, of your anxiety showing yourself? Manifesting. Manifesting.

Manifesting. Hmm. Yeah. Thank you. I'm not that dumb. Well, I think I've always had it. I think I used it to my benefit. I guess it's like...

But I think even filmmaking and making workaholics, there was a significant amount of anxiety that was going on. That's normal. That's just workload. That's just your brain having to... I feel like, and especially that first season or two. And you're good at it, Kyle. You're good at it.

There. Are you happy? Thank you. Thank you. And I think that anxiety is a part of me, and so you just have to learn out of Bob and Weave. But like, even yesterday, I was freaking freaking because the wind was going so fast,

and I got trees on my property. That's normal. And I was like, these trees are going to fall, and it's going to fall right where my daughter is sleeping. That's normal. And then it goes to like my kids now. Where it's like, I got to protect them. So, yes.

I'm the same way. When we fill up the bath all the way, I'm convinced it's going to go through the floor. Right. Okay. Okay. So, that's a thing. That's anxiety.

But I don't... But that's not like... But I don't let it win. I don't go... Guys, turn the water off. Get out the bath! No, neither do I. That's what I'm saying.

I would not say I have crippling anxiety. But during a storm, when you have giant trees over your house, it's like, yeah, that's a normal thing to consider. That's a regular parental concern. Well, why I feel like I don't have... I think I would be a more anxious person. We all have money to pay bills.

And if our car breaks down, you could just pay for it. All of my anxiety when I was in my early 20s was all like, I can't afford anything. Like, if my car breaks down, I have to walk places or I'll have to get on the bus. Or like, you know... Adam, as a compliment, I would argue that you ain't have it then either.

Yeah. Yeah, probably not. I don't think... Yeah, I've always come to you as this... When I get nervous or like, the few times I did have to go on stage and I was fucking shaking because I'm holding like the paper towel or whatever,

like those times I would go to you, Adam, and be like, bro, what the fuck is going on? And you were able to be like, don't fucking... What are you talking about? Freaking Sia. Kind of gaslight my anxiety

to the point of like being like, yeah, it's nothing, you know? Oh. Well, because it just doesn't matter. Like, if we go out there and eat shit, like, it'll still be kind of funny. Right. Yes.

And even... Right. And best case scenarios, we just do what we set out to do and it is funny. So it's... Right. I think something that is very comforting

is it's like, like 80% of the shit... I'll be right back. 80% of the shit you worry about, like, never happens. So everything you're like always like, oh fuck, this is the... Oh no, I'm worrying about this scenario.

It just never happens. So why do we let it occupy your brain? I don't know. Well, even like when things do bottom out and it is shitty, like us not doing the movie and we had all this time and we were going to do the movie

and like it all kind of works out. It's like, well, now I have more time to like go to the physical therapist and go to all these doctors and see some specialists and try to figure this fucking thing out instead of like running around in the woods with you guys

with my hip and groin and back. The movie would have killed... Truly rupturing. Yeah, right. Yeah, it could have been bad. The movie would have killed Adam. That would have been funny though, dude. Dude, a funny way to go out.

If I'm going to go out, I do want it to be on a set with you guys doing something so dumb. Right, yeah. Beats and beats out. That would be good. Whoopsies. And scene.

We got it. Like if it was during that scene of Game Over Man where I'm holding my cock, being auto-erotic, affixiated. You really died, but Adam... Oh shit.

Uh, cute. Cute Adam, Adam. You guys would still have to release the footage though. You would want us to know that this is how we went out. Yes. I would leak it. I mean, that's a really good way to...

Like a good perspective of anxiety is if you clock what you're anxious about, like write that down and then look back on it and be like, well, why was I anxious about that? Because now I'm here. And that didn't happen.

Maybe we need to start marking down all the shit we worried about that never came to fruition. I did have to do that in therapy years ago when I was trying to figure out how to get through some of the fears. Like you have to like look at it and you have a new memory.

It's not real. It's... But you overcame your fear. Now you eat salads. And now I eat salads. You were afraid of vegetables. And I was deathly afraid of salads. Your fear was specifically cows.

Yeah, that was your main fear. My fear... My fear was tomatoes. The attack of the killer tomatoes really fucking got me when I was a kid. A good movie. I played it for my kids and they fucking loved it. You think it's good?

Really? It holds up? No, it's... It's one of the worst movies of all time. Yeah, okay. My kids watched it and thought it was hilarious. It has cool shit in it. You know what was so sick about attack of the killer tomatoes?

Remember the cartoon? Yes. They had a cartoon, dude. Yes, I don't. Dude, they had a like Saturday morning cartoon attack of the killer tomatoes. And there was like this one little tomato that kind of acted like a dog.

It was the nice tomato. Man, pull that up. Blake, since you're the guy who likes to remake things almost. Loose butthole. The fast food war... What the fuck was that called? Where it was like burgers fighting?

Oh, it was called food fighters. Food fight. Yeah, food fighters. Food fighters. That was my shirt. And then there were barnyard commandos. They were kind of similar toys. They were just rubber.

They didn't move or anything. But whoever designed those toys were sick artists. Sick artists. Yeah, they were on one. Adam, I just got one of these fucking things. Those are great. Wait, what does he got?

Adam has a shepherd. Adam has a hooked dildo. I just got one of these little crooks. What do they call... No, there's a word for those like shepherd hooks. Barnyard commandos. Yeah, it's for like massaging and like releasing tense muscles.

It's called a cane. And so now I just sort of stab this in my hip and groin area for several hours a day. It's so tight, dude. Hey, Adam, I don't know if you're down to take a trip somewhere, but you should just go to see my guy and just see if it works.

Well, chiropractor? Who's your guy? What do you mean? My body work guy that I go to once a month is just a fucking magician. And if you go in there with something wrong with you, you leave and it's better. Well, I go to a guy, he does the same thing.

He's a physical therapist, but he specifically does body work. And it does feel so fucking good after I did it. Like I was in the most pain I was ever in two days ago. Then went to him with his magic hands. And I feel a lot better. Like what level was your pain at? Like terrible.

Terrible, dude. It's legit very, very bad. The dude's on pain pills, man. What the fuck? I'm on fucking multiple pain pills and muscle relaxers and shit. It sucks. That's some bullshit.

And then he does it. And then your pain goes from like an eight or a nine to like a four or a five. So you're coming in your pants. Yeah. What's up? Allegedly. Until you're coming in your pants.

All right. Oh yeah. You said you're coming in your pants. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Is that spinal fluid? Your disc is leaking. I got a leaky disc, buddy. I think I just drained some.

But yeah, is your guy up in LA? I'll go to your guy when I'm up there. He's not even up in LA. He's like outside of LA. That's what I was saying if you wanted to take a trip. But it's so funny. I was there last week and he goes, do you want to schedule another appointment?

And I go, yeah, he goes, okay. Got an opening in June, first week of June. Yeah. And I was like, yeah, pencil me in. Damn. So, you know, right? Yeah. Because he's just booked because people are like,

this is the guy. And he's not even like the guy. Right. He's just not that guy, pal. Trust me. He just works on like triathletes and people who work out at the old gym I used to go to. So this is an athletic trainer.

Yeah. Yeah. He gets people ready for like Ironman. He loosens you up. He sure does. That's what I need. I need that shit for pickleball, dude. I need that.

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.

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? 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, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. If you're looking for someone to help you unpack Queen Charlotte a Bridgerton story, you're in the right place.

What is it? It's called Rolfine.

And I don't know why it's called Rolfine, but essentially it's like a... Roll on the floor laughing. It's body work, but it's wildly painful. So it's not like a massage where you're like, you go there to relax. It's like, it's so painful, but then you hope that it helps. Like if you have a muscle, like when I'm lifting weights,

sometimes... Was it like rolling out? You know, like when you roll out, it hurts like a bitch, but you hope that it helps. Yeah, essentially. Roll out. And there's someone doing that with their hands to your troubled areas.

Like sometimes I'll like pinch something in my back and just a part of my back will just stay flexed. The ripping and the tearing. Which essentially what's happening in my whole like growing and back and hip area. Damn. And then they are supposed to help release that pressure. Yeah.

It's magic. Well, I mean, I want... I mean, look, you brought up DDP yoga and I really am curious about DDP yoga and I saw... Yeah, I mean, I would think you are. So DDP yoga, the fact that you didn't go right to that one. It's wrestling. It wasn't that yoga.

I feel like I know this guy. Next thing I know is getting anxiety. Hates wrestling. Yeah, what the fuck? I was hurting. I was hurting too bad. I don't know. It was...

I was... I don't know, but... You don't trust DDP? No, I was hurting too bad. I wasn't sure that I was going to get much. He's hurting too bad. You weren't thinking properly. You just went to the path of least resistance.

Your wife told you about a thing. You went for it. I get it. Yeah, it's a gateway. Yeah, for all the listeners who are wondering what is DDP, it's Diamond Dallas Page, a WCW wrestler. He has a yoga program, right? It's a yoga regimen, yeah.

Yeah, and supposedly it's legit. Well, Tony Horton is... There is a crossover video where Tony Horton's doing DDP yoga and Tony was like, wow, wow. And I'm like, okay, if Tony fucking really digs this, like... I mean, and it saved... Let's rock. I mean, until he passed away.

It saved Razor Ramon's life, right? It did. Oh, Scott Hall. Yeah, that's right. He swore by it. And Jake the Snake too, I believe. Yeah. And why did it save his life?

Yoga saved it. He was on hard times and getting through some stuff and got clean, got on some yoga. It saved his life. Yeah. Oh, okay, cool. He found fitness. And they all are pain pills too.

They're all pain pills. All the retired wrestlers find that fucking hole of like... They're stuck in the opioids and DDP is like, get out of that. Just stretch it out. Yeah. Yeah. Well, no, I'll take a look at it for sure.

Yeah, because it's pain pills. Adam's like, I'll do both. Yeah. Well, pain pills just fucking suck. I feel like I'm... They're the fucking worst. I'm way slower than I want to be. Like, I don't...

I have a hard time concentrating. I like them. I used to love them. Like, I just want... Like, I have things like I'm supposed to be working on. We're gearing up for a bumper in Berlin Season 2. And I'm like, let's go. As executive producer, I'm supposed to be doing all this work.

And I'm just like, just dragging ass doing it. Because I'm on all these fucking pain pills. So I'm like, it'd be better to just sit here, though. Let's go. I don't do pain pills. I don't do pain pills, really. Yeah. It's fucking suck.

I don't either, except for when I broke my back. What season was it when we were in the... We were in the writer's room and I was on... I was on, like, perks, I think. And that shit was... That was, like, Season 3, I think. Yeah, I think it was 2 or 3. Yeah.

I think it's Season 3. Yeah. Our best is... Remember, I was just on the couch like... Yeah, I used to say perks of the job. Just the perks of the job. Points to me, babe. Yeah, retroactive points.

I'll take that. Yes, points! They felt very good, but I wanted to get off them immediately. Like, as soon as I didn't feel like I had to use them, I was like, no, no more. Because it fucking makes you chill. I just forget to take them. I remember when I...

For Workaholics, when I did a body slam on, like, a garbage can, and I cracked my ribs. Same season. That's right. They gave me, like, those horse pills. And I was like, cool. And I took one. Yeah, and I was like, I don't know, it feels too good.

Yeah. And they're like, you were supposed to swallow those. Yeah. I just put a couple up the pooper. I did. Okay, I did. You're supposed to take them out of the bottle. My back's...

My back's mouth. Did you put the bottle up your ass? You fucking ate them with your back mouth. I don't... I just gobbled up my back mouth. I've never done this before, so why are you yelling at me? Well, which mouth should I use? I tried my best.

Leave me alone. My south mouth? I didn't... You didn't specify which mouth. South mouth. Shout out, fucking... The standing... But I just forget to take them.

And then, like, the pain hurts. But I'm like, yeah. And I like not taking pain pills, because then you know, like, you can... Your body can talk to you. Yeah, you know how much you're in pain. Let the body down. But essentially, that's the level.

That's the level. It's the body. This is the R&B track. I tried to take most of them. I was just in a lot of pain this morning, and I took two, which... Normally, I only take one in the morning, and then I'll take two, like, before bed,

so I can actually fall asleep. Because the other night, it was like 5 a.m., and I still was just, like, awake. Well, daylight savings time, fucked everybody up, right? Am I right? Can I get a fuck off to daylight savings? Oh, yeah.

And we'll talk about that if we can pivot. It's such an issue in my house. Fuck daylight savings. Straight up. I'm over that shit. I ain't a farmer no more. For a week after daylight savings in our house, Emma's just like,

well, you know, it's daylight savings, so everything's crazy. I'm like, it's an hour difference. It can't be. Dude, it was crazy, though. It's not that crazy. It was crazy. It is.

I took three naps yesterday. I think it does affect some people a certain way. Yes. I took three one-hour naps yesterday. My God, how do you have the time to do all that, man? I don't. I just fell asleep at the wheel. You were driving?

Okay. Yeah, what do you mean? Remember the anxiety? I killed a man. It's crippling. He takes naps, bro. No, man. Yeah, well, I guess you should have anxiety

if you fall asleep while driving, man. That's what I'm saying. I can't tell which memories are real and which are fake. I don't know, man. I don't know what I'm living in a nightmare. Does it matter, though? Does it really matter when you think about it? I'm living in a nightmare.

Does it matter if you know? Yeah, nothing matters. Exactly. Nothing matters. I think that's my mantra, and why I'm probably not that anxious is nothing really matters that much. Well, we've talked about how you've had a brush with death,

so you just... Yeah, you're lucky in that way. Ain't nothing slowing you down. Except for my body that's currently giving up on me. So wait, Adam, it doesn't feel better to sit down because when are you just going to be the homie in the wheelchair? That would be sick.

No, it hurts to sit down. It feels good to lay down. Blake has a fun idea. It hurts. It feels good to lay down, but to sit, it doesn't feel good. Okay. You like corpse pose.

Get on your yoga, dude. Get on your yoga. No, I need to be in a full corpse pose. If you could just wheel my bed, and we'll just set the camera directly above me, and I could do podcasts and shit that way. The podcast is basically like a dentist looking in your mouth. That'd be tight.

That'd be really tight. That would be cool. Nancy Meyers told me a story about how Jack Nicholson didn't want to be... Was it something that's got to give? Is that her movie? Yeah. I think it...

Was it Nicholson or was it Baldwin? It was Nicholson. It was. No, it was Nicholson. Okay. I forget which movie exactly, but he was like, I don't like the way I look laying in bed.

And she was like, okay, and he's like, we got to stand the bed up. And she's like, what? And they had... Nicholson had her stand the bed upright and then shoot it like they're laying down. Right.

But really he's just like standing there against the bed. So your face looks better. You don't look like... Yeah. So your face looks better. So you're not all like... Not whoop-wapped.

Whoa, wait a minute. Sunk it into yourself. Wait a minute. We got to pull that footage. How do you open it? Wait a minute. Okay. I like that a little insider stuff.

I like that. I love how you dropped out of like the chunkiest part of that song. It's like, what's happening with the horns back there? You can't hear anything. For sure the worst rendition of that song. Hey, Blake. I liked it, dude.

I got it. Thanks, man. It catches up with itself. You get it after this. It sounds like a factory starting up or like an old cartoon car. Yeah, that was the model team when they fully cranked that.

Wow, that is really a fucking great-ass track. That's a banger, dude. It does hit. It goes. People don't sleep standing up, right? That's not a thing yet, right? Yeah. Is that something that-

Blake, I'll let you answer that one. I feel like it's right around the corner. I don't know. I'm anxious as to where this is going to go, Blake. I feel like there are people out there that are claiming sleeping standing up is good for your body or something. Okay, so you feel like this.

You feel like this, though. But you've never heard- You feel like this. My premonitions, bro. You sleep- This is when it does matter. Is that not a thing? Nobody sleeps standing up?

No. That's not a thing. I don't know, man. Not to my knowledge, no. Not that we know. Because some people sleep like hanging upside down like Batman, right? No.

No. No one does that either. No, dude. The majority of people sleep laying down. Hey, sure, dude. There's some freaks out there that do weird shit. Absolutely. People fucking hang by their nipples.

And sleep, though. As a thing to do. Oh, narcoleptic people will fucking sleep standing up. Yeah. Yeah. I've seen Deuce Bigelow, the male jiggler. Now, dude, if a narcoleptic person is standing up and they just fall asleep,

do they pass out and like fall down? Or are they able to- I think so, yeah. Well, you lose- If you're in- It's saying here, if you're in your REM cycle, you're losing your muscle tone. So you don't have-

Your muscle will collapse if you're actually asleep. What was that movie, my own private Idaho? Well, if you're in your REM, though, it takes a long time to get into REM sleep. So maybe- Yeah, so maybe you can catnap standing up. They're saying soldiers would do it when they're on night watch, you know?

Oh, shit. Well, I could see leaning against something. Like if your body weight is leaned back against something. What? No. I could see leaning against something like while laying down on a bed or something. But then you fall. That I get.

If you're sitting and leaned back and your legs are extended, then I can see it. I get that. Kyle, thanks for talking about yoga again. Yeah, corpse pose. That's how I wake up and do my stretches. I could do yoga if you're leaned up against the wall, your eyes closed.

If you lean against a wall standing up. A fistful of chips, maybe. I bet you can fall asleep. I bet you can fall asleep. Absolutely you could. No, I'm not mean- You think your legs would buckle? I know my legs would buckle.

I know my legs. I don't think I would get to sleep. Okay, Ders, it's World War II. You're on the night watch. It's your third day in a row. What side am I on? What side am I on? All quiet is on the Western front.

Well, you know what side you're on, you fucking whack-a-doodle. USA, brother. Come on. Okay, all right, good. Berry pepper sniper style? What are we talking? Yeah, you're sniping. You're Wesley sniping.

Okay, great. Yeah, you're a ranger. You're a ranger, dude. You're in a movie with Wesley Snipes about World War II. Okay. And the hours are super long and craft services is like wax. So you're not well-fed.

Yeah, sure. Yeah, it's not cool. It's like a day. It's not a lot of money. Not a lot of money. It's all outdoors. It's the third day of shooting. Yeah, no unions are backing you up.

It's like, they're fucking. The indoors are outdoors, Adam? It's a right to work state. Dude, it's all outdoors. So you've gotten a lot of sun, okay? And the wind was cooking earlier, so you're a little wind blown. This is New Mexico.

It's a right to work state. They're pushing you. That's right, they're pushing you. All right? It's not cool. And you're kind of tired. Cease the break. No union breaks.

None. And the scene is you're looking through binoculars, but you're kind of standing up. But you have. Where's Snipes? You're kind of resting your head. Yeah, Snipes is to your right. He's doing a monologue.

You don't even have to say anything. Yeah, he's, yeah. This is all dirt on the binocs. Yeah, it's just kind of you like propped up like this. Yeah, so you're not, you don't see your eyes. You can close them and just kind of nod off. Like we said earlier, it's all outside, dude. And the wind, and it's a long day.

Crafty's bad, right? Crafty's bad, dude. Horrible, horrible. It's like they're out of Tillamook cheese day three. It's over for you, bro. Yeah, that sucks. That sucks. You're sharing a trailer.

You don't have a trailer either. Little M&M's? Do they have any overnight oats? No, they don't. No, no, that's the only thing. Ran out this morning. Snipes actually made a point to say they can't have those on sale.

He does not allow an overnight oats. Do they have any kiwis that I can eat entirely? Ooh, baby. If it's my set, they got kiwis, dog. They have a lot of kiwis. Yeah, Kyle is actually directing this episode. It's now, it's a series now. Oh, I'll be in my trailer.

No, no, he's running with me on an indie. We're doing an indie style. He's running with me on an indie with Snipes. Okay, but it's a three-parter, right? It's like a three-part series. Oh, it's a bio, it's a series. It's a mini series. Okay.

They call him limited series now, but yeah. It's an event. It's a limited event. It's a TV trilogy. Okay, so the table's been set. What is the question? And by the way, you're tired. You're so tired, dude.

You don't think you could fall asleep in that scenario? I don't know. Okay, do you need more information? If he doesn't know, what do you need? I thought we gave you enough information to know whether or not you could fall asleep in that sonar, but... I feel like when they do the turnaround, I could just go over to my chair, which is hopefully a low chair.

I don't even think I could fall asleep in a high director's chair. You don't have chairs on this picture. And I'm out. On this picture, you don't have chairs. Dude, I will say that, and this is another Hollywood minute. Okay, wait, hold on. I don't fuck with the high chairs anymore. I'm 100% an old actor that asks for the low chairs.

Yeah, low chairs. There's nothing wrong with asking for low chairs because the high chairs are horrible for your fucking back, dude. It's not about that. It's not about that. But they're good for the makeup artists. Thank you, Derz. The fact that we, as an industry, decided to just go,

we're doing high director chairs, and everybody gets one of these high ass chairs, don't you want your legs to be closer to the ground so you can stretch out a little bit? Yes. No, Derz. But it's for the makeup artists to come up. Derz had the number one answer.

It's for the makeup artists. Yeah, so they don't have to bend over. But I guess everyone on your set's bending over. Oh, that's right. Hey, but guess what? That looks good, Derz. When they're doing the makeup, I'll stand up. I'll stand up for a few minutes and let them do it.

No, with those legs. You're, this is how you come down here. I want you to feel my pain. Adam's next movie is going to be bending over for him, brother. Yeah, yeah. I'm going to say, I'm going to be, I'll be crippled. Yeah. I'll piss now.

I'll be crippled for my next film. I only, I only play guys that their legs don't work from here on out. Dude, Lieutenant Dan, bro. No. But Adam, I'm with you. I'm with you lower chairs all the way because they haven't updated the high chair.

The lower chairs have like tables and like places for your laptop or your iPad, like pockets for snacks. The pockets for snacks are a problem. This is way inside, by the way. This is the best Hollywood minute we've had. This is the deepest we've ever been inside of Hollywood. Tuck in chairs, dude. 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 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 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, D.C. It took four murders before the police finally realized that one person was responsible. 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. Speaking of Hollywood Minute, Kyle just struck on something that I think is a great idea that we should produce. And I would love to star in if you guys all have my blessing. Okay. The Lieutenant Dan story. Yes, Adam.

Oh. Let's follow him, dude. Yes. Let's follow him. That's a great war picture, dude. Let's do it. That's a great idea. Right?

Lieutenant Dan before. The Lieutenant Dan spin-off. Right? Don't you want to see specifically all Lieutenant Dan? Bro. Like what happened? How did he lose his legs? Yeah.

We know how he lost his legs. Isn't that in the movie? That's in the movie. All of his life is in the movie. Yeah. Oh, right. There's the whole Vietnam part. He explains that he comes from like a long line of people.

Like he has his own movie in the movie. Yes, he does. He does. But you don't have to show. I'm a dumb ass. You could show him living that life. Tell his story. Yeah.

You just want to see his hair grow out. You want to see those years when it was kind of like a little awkward. Yeah. Like kind of the awkward hair and people don't respect him because his hair's not dope yet. Yeah, dude. I like that. I want the comedy of like everyone's supposed to respect him and like, but he's kind of a dick. Yeah, yeah.

He got the legs now, but like he's also like me into that wife who's like, good to meet you, Forrest. Remember that lady? Dang, no, I got to run it back. Yeah. Well, I have an image of Gary Sinise walking at the end of the movie. Is he walking? That's when he's with his wife.

And he has metal legs. Remember who cares? And he goes, he goes, clink, clink. Yeah, he hits the cane against his metal legs. And at the beginning of the movie, he has legs as well. I don't remember him at the beginning. What are you saying? They flat, they, he go to, they go to Vietnam.

I know, I know, I know I should have this in my mind, but I don't have an image of him. Lieutenant Dan is in charge of Forrest Gump. He's his lieutenant. He says, wear a good sock. And he's like, don't salute me, you fucking idiot. That's the first time you meet him. Yes. Isn't there a scene at school when they meet and like he's like the bully or something?

Dude, that's, you're talking Bubba and he wasn't a bully at all. And that's in Adam's picture. And Bubba doesn't have a scene from the high school. Adam's movie has. He loses, he gets his legs blown off. And then I remember, he carries them. I remember that. He's mad that Forrest saved his life because he's supposed to die in battle.

He's like, let me die. Let me die. And Zemeckis has the fucking greatest shot for no reason in that movie. What is that? This is a dick. He pulls Forrest off the bed down to the ground and he's going to like fucking kill him. And the camera starts this way, goes down between the beds, then comes around the bed underneath it, shooting across so you can see Lieutenant Dan.

It's bizarre. We'll try and post it. Don't want to make. Yeah. Let's post that shot. But he was supposed to die. I would. And he's pissed.

And then later, he's an alcoholic with long limbs, Lenore. Uh-huh. Wow. That's right. That's right. Go off. That's right. Go off, Ders.

And then Forrest gives him like a reason to live. And then he comes back at the very end with the fucking fake legs and a new wife. And she goes, it's nice to meet you, Forrest. Interesting things. By the way, I still think there's enough story there to tell the Lieutenant Dan biopic. Right. Adam, when does your movie take place? When does your movie take place?

The hair. The long hair. Yeah. Wait, is it during the movie? Well, see, I do. The whole point initially was to be crippled in it. That's what I was kind of looking forward to sitting down for myself. I think that means that your movie has to take place when Forrest was like off doing

something in the movie. Kicking it with Jenny. Yeah, probably Jenny. Yeah. Always playing ping pong for the US in China. Yeah, he's playing ping pong. Pickleball. We need to fill the gaps in the Lieutenant Dan storyline.

Yeah, a smart. What if we update it? Forrest Gump is really good at pickleball. I'm listening. I'm listening. And then Adam is kind of laying in a bed and we're wheeling him around and he's doing monologues. And then I look up and I see the TV and pickleball.

This is like what, the 70s? So it's like, he's not getting a lot of love for pickleball yet. It hasn't become the phenomenon. He looks up at the TV and he sees Forrest crushes him in ping pong and he's like, God damn that Forrest Gump. Yeah. Just so we don't get sued, we want to change it to like, you're just a guy named Lieutenant Man. It's science.

And everyone will know it's a wink. It's a wink. I watched that movie. Lieutenant Man. No, no, no, no. We're getting the rights. We're calling Zumeckis. We're getting the rights.

Okay. Zumeckis. Lieutenant Man. Zumeckis. Zumeckis. Yeah, okay. Let's go for it. Yeah, reboot.

Well, we want the IP, I guess. Yeah, you're right. I'm a fucking idiot. Right. Walk, Forrest. Walk. Lieutenant Daniel. Let's just call it that.

Lieutenant Manuel. Walk, Forrest. Walk. Forrest Gump. Forrest Gump. Forrest. It's, make it in Russia, dude. That would be stupid.

I am Lieutenant Man. Walk, Forrest. It's from the perspective of a Russian soldier. Forrest. Walk, Forrest. Walk. Have you guys seen the documentary, that one best documentary, that is that guy's name?

When? The Russian guy went to jail. The Russian guy that went to jail. Dude, it's the craziest story. I heard it's not real. I have no idea what you're talking about. It's not real? What?

I'm just kidding. I was about to be floored at the academy. Could someone look up what that documentary is? It's called Leatherby or Burnaby. No, it's a very Russian. It's not. It ends in a Y. It was like this Oscars?

It won the best documentary, this Oscars. It's out now. It's on HBO Max. It's so. I don't know. Navalny. Navalny. Navalny.

So Russian. Oh yeah, that doesn't sound. Yeah, and he's the opposition leader against Putin. And he's like this charismatic guy. And he essentially Putin poisons him. Yeah. And he almost dies. Oh, I know about this story.

Yeah. No. Yeah, I remember that guy. It's a wild story. And then this data expert is able to figure out who actually poisoned him. They call the people that they think poisoned him and try to catch them into admitting it.

And one guy does. One guy straight up admits to the whole thing. Dude, this is Blair Witch. What? It didn't happen. It's wild, dude. It's an absolutely wild story. And let me guess.

Let me guess. Found footage. Who made CNN films? No, they filmed. Oh, you lost me. You lost me. Fucking Don Lemon. No, man.

Fuck that, dude. Anderson Cooper. Nope. You lost me there. All right. Who are you? Who's your guy? It's Blake.

Yeah. Yeah, Blake's out. Blake's out. Which is cool. I respect that, bro. You got to have your lines, man. Blake's guy is fucking John Norris. And you lost me.

Hey, if I said Wolf Blitzer, would you come back? Actually, yeah. I fell for Wolf. A little bit. A little bit. All right, OK. Whoa, you trust Wolf. Yeah.

Blake only listens to Tabitha Soren and fucking. He has to Kurt Loder. Kurt Loder. He still goes to Kurt Loder for his news. I'm an MTV news guy. He's the 90. He's Matt Pinfield. Yeah, Matt Pinfield.

Or I wish I could pull the Nick News people, but I. Oh, that lady? Oh, I could pull it. I could pull it. Lori Beth Emberg. Yeah, Lori Beth. Welcome back to Nick News. Yo, she was too serious.

She looked like the dancing lady who was like, and this is how you freeze die, all right? Or like, this is hip hop dance. And she's like, and you twist your arms. And you step, step, step. I feel like that's the same lady. It's probably the same lady who teaches Kyle Yoga. Same exact girl.

There we go. Nick News lady. She was so cool. Same girl. Same girl. Same girl. South Central California. There's something called a drive-by shooting.

We're asking students at the school about it. Well, that being said, guys, check out that documentary. It is really cool. I think you guys would all really like it. Yeah, I do want to watch that. That and the Beastie Boys doc. I've been to a little dock boy on. I don't know.

Thank you for the dock of the bay. Just high as a kite on my pain pills. Thank you for the wrecks, dude. So you're just popping perks and fucking zoning out and going dock mode? Yeah, honestly, yes, dude. I got new couches at the crib. So, oh.

Oh, you got a test drive on. You know I'm hard chilling. Oh, my God. Oh, I like your life right now. Yeah, it sits nice. My little opioid boy. It's super cozy. There's all these warnings all over the bottle.

It says opioids all over it. I'm like, don't mind if I do. Don't take with alcohol. Yeah, be safe about that. As you drink a Ashlyn Seltzer. Adam, are you having sticker shock, Adam? What is it? The fuck?

It's how expensive the couch was. Yeah, we had them made like for specifically for the space in our house. Yeah. OK. We got so expensive, though. We're doing, we got to like a designer to like go pick out stuff

because we're just both busy. OK. And then like the bill, we're like. Big? No. This is what? Freaking sea. Oh, well, the designer, because we did that, too.

And the designer always picks the most expensive shit. And you're like, you have to talk them off a ledge. And you're like, bitch, this is not your money. Hey, oh. I'm like so stoked to just go to Creighton Barrel. Ikea, bro. And just be like, let me do 12 of these sofas instead of the one.

Yeah, just go do it. Just go pick it up. It's crazy. And I'm like, I know people who got cash, but I'm just like, do the people with cash feel stupid for buying shit like that? You can get couches made for a price point, though. You can get couches made for a price point.

Kyle can make you a couch is what he's saying. He's going to make you a couch. His dad will make you a couch. Dude, I got couches made. I got couches made. It ain't the worst thing. You know, it depends on where you're going because you want them custom to your room.

When did you get a maid? Well, see, I got couches made 10 years ago for the Hollywood house, and it was a decent price. I was like, okay, this is affordable. And then I just went through the same process and it is what, three times the amount? Maybe four times? Well, everything's crazy.

Yeah, it's because the banks failed, bro. The banks failed. They're looking at your IMDB. They're checking variety. They know what's up. Everything's crazy right now. They're like season two bumper. Okay, we're getting some.

Yeah, they're like, okay, he's got that pickup. Okay, the movie bottomed out. Guys, no, it's the inflation. If the banks failed, that's why your couch cost so damn much. Okay, see you in there, guys. Okay, here we go. Don Lemon. Chill out, Don Lemon.

Come on, what goes up is gonna come down. All right, let's... Well said. Well, I do know that cars are mad expensive right now. They're like the price tag is way up if you're trying to buy a car. That's falling though. Oh, dude, yeah, I bought my dad a fucking car

and it was like the sticker price and I go to buy it and then they're like, yeah, it's gonna be like $10,000 more. Then the sticker price, then what it says. Four months ago is worse though, it was wild. Hey, let me hit you with this one. I went in and bought a Footlong from Subway. Remember how they were $5?

Them motherfuckers are 10 bucks now. Are you serious? Are you serious? Jersey Mike's, Jersey Mike's, Jersey Mike's. Subway sandwich is fucking 10 bucks. Get the fuck out of here. Footlong is 10 bucks. For that rotten ass spinach.

What are you getting? Footlong veggie. That is a crazy, that's crazy. Toasting. Toasting, yes. Dude, I lived off that $5 Footlong when I first moved to California. Yeah, it was a game changer.

Dude, they're not five anymore. They're 10 bucks. How the fuck is that 10 bucks? I don't know, because the meat is still slimy as fuck. Yeah, but delicious. Bro, that's not the greatest ingredients. It's not the greatest bread. It is awesome.

It is great. It's not the greatest. Yeah, we do fuck so much. No, I'm fine with it, but like 10 bucks for a Footlong, bro? That is the one fast food that I do eat is Subway. Jersey Mike's. You don't go Jersey Mike's over Subway? Usually not.

It's crazy. It's crazy. No, it's crazy. Well, there's Subway's everywhere. So like if I'm going to get fast food, usually I'm like... Wait. I will back. I will back.

I'm on a freeway or Subway and it's like a road trip. Pull back. And we're like stopping for fast food and I'll go, well, there's a Subway in this gas station. So I'll just get that. Pull back. Vegetable light, a little feta cheese. Call it a day.

Dude, you get that Subway club. I wait. I get on my phone and I wait till it's something special and I pull over. Pull back. Yeah. Well, hey man, I just hope Subway comes back down to Earth, man. I hope they touch Earth.

Yeah. There are heads in the sky. Wait, but speaking of Subway, every time I turn on Hulu, it's like the Jared from Subway Monster documentary. Oh, I can't wait to watch that, dude. Oh, I watched a little bit. Did you? Was it gross?

Well, yeah, it has to be. No, it's kind of fascinating. Wait a second, Blake likes it. Wait, why do you like it so much, dude? Oh, man, I was gross. I don't know what I would get out of watching it, to be honest. Like. What's really cool about it, as for like a demented person,

is they have Jared, his phone calls recorded. So you actually hear him talking. Yeah, he had this girl who he was like, was kind of his confidant and she was like, the whole thing follows her. She kind of was like, like his, she. Like his jizz lane? Not his lover.

Like his jizz lane? Maxwell or? Yeah, kind of. Yeah. So she's just like, yeah, tell me all your ways. Like teach me your ways. Oh, dude, I did see something like this. Oh, yeah, the wings.

And then, no, and then he was, he was saying like, could I ever get photos of your kids? Whoa. Yeah, dude. That's why she. Yeah. And that's where she's like, oh, this is getting so fucking skeezy.

Like, I have to like. Well, I like that once it went to her kids, she's like, wait, something's wrong. But you can tell about anyone else's kids and you're like, wow, I was a cool guy. I knew I was recording these for a documentary, but now it has gotten way too far. Now it's too far.

Yeah, dude. It is bizarre. The bummer about it is probably he just wanted pictures of her kids, but he didn't. He couldn't go out the gate. Right. So he was like, let's go. And that is the bummer.

That's a huge bummer. Yeah. Huge bummer for Jared from Subway. Huge bummer for Jared. Hundreds of kids later, he like circles back and he's like, all right. So like, what about your kids? Would that be crazy?

Yeah. Gosh, he had to stick with it for like a long time. That's a bummer. Yeah, dude. It was a long con for him, for sure. He put it in the work. He's like, it's a bummer. That's a bummer for the bro.

It's a bummer for Jared. Now I gotta watch it. This guy, what a hard rap. What an absolutely insane, like, I mean, what an insane thing. Insane. Did he have so much dough when he was doing the Subway commercials?

Did he get paid to fuck it? Yeah, there wasn't. There actually wasn't. Why did he got paid? I think they make less than you. I mean, yes, they are straight paid, but they make less than you think that they do. If there's a straight spokesperson.

But isn't he making like side dough because he's like an aspirational speaker? Flabran. Dough, literal. Is he making some of that? He's stacking the flabran by like speaking for companies and stuff to be like, I used to weigh a thousand pounds

and I eat sandwiches and then I'm turning my life around. Blah, blah, blah, I can be your kid. And I fucked the kids. Yes, points. I bet Subway had him locked the fuck up, dude. Subway. You can do like speaking engagements. Speaking engagements.

Yeah. Yeah. And who knows if he did, but yeah. Well, if he had a good agent. Yeah. Hey, any takebacks? Apologies or epic slams. Yeah, I'm sorry.

So I'm sorry I brought up the fucking Subway monster movie. Yeah, I take back anything we said about Jared from Subway. May he rot in whatever hell. Okay, yeah, okay. All right, all right, okay. May he rot in hell. I thought you were like, pretty cool guy. Well, I feel like I might have said that,

but let him rot in hell. I hate him. Check out Navalny, which I think is how you pronounce it. It's on HBO Max. It's an awesome fucking documentary. About a guy who worked at Jersey. And the Beastie Boys documentary. Also a great documentary.

Man, two weeks you're talking about that, huh? Must have been good. Yeah, dude, I love the Beastie Boys documentary. What is that on? I want to watch that. What is it? Apple. Is it on some?

Apple, yeah. Okay, I'm going to check it out. I'm going to check it out. I'm going to give a shout out to Spengooly. Okay. All right. Okay, that's a bagel. I got a little poster back here.

This is Kyle Gabe, this is to me. At Comic Con a few years ago. I hung it up, Spengooly, still doing it, holding it down in Chicago. Oh, we got a V-Cool. Save that for the next pod, because I want to know who that person is. Yes, put a pin in it.

Put a pin in it. He just said it's like goofy commentary, like coming back from commercials for like old movies that cost a deep, deep, deep cable channel, nothing. So he's the Crip Keeper, basically. He's, yeah. So Spengooly was like an old long time, like a long ago thing,

and then he took the reins from the OG. I like it. I actually think I listened to a whole podcast about that shit, and it was fucking cool. They were all like bros in Midwest, right? I didn't hear. You tell me. You just asked me who he was

and told me you watched a whole movie. Bro, are you serious? Hey, next episode. Kyle, you got any candy critiques? Yeah, I have no idea who that is. I listened to a whole podcast about that. What the fuck? I was playing dumb for the studio audience,

all right? That's what I do. I'm really dumb. Kyle, it's candy critiques. What? Oh, I could do a giveaway. I could do a giveaway. You guys want to do a giveaway?

We never do a giveaway. Okay, hold on, hold on. I was going through some shit. Hold on. Give your address first. Yeah. Oh, he's going to do a pose. Okay.

Why is his head looking so small? I don't know. I think it's shrinking. What's up with Kyle's head, dude? Is his body so big his head looks small? Look how big his ass is. Damn, bro. Bro is...

He looks like a thick post Malone. What's up? Look at what he's got. A thick post Malone. He's fat. There you go. Kyle has a paper plate. No, a big kid's line by him.

He looks like roast Malone. This is... We've talked about it on the pod. This is a drum head signed by Christina Aguilera. Okay. I have no certificate of authenticity or anything to go with it, but I'm happy to give this away.

Okay. Okay. So how are we going to give it away? I don't know. I haven't thought that far through. We have no mechanism in place to actually... How about this, Kyle? Tell your address right now

and have people send the letters and then the best letter. I'm not going to do that. We can think on it. This can be the first prize. Hey, how about we post about the giveaway in the 69th comment? Okay.

That's good. We will give it to them. That's a little... Okay. That's cool. Producers are... The producers cool with that? Can they make that happen?

Comment a lot and comment often and hopefully your number 69, dude. Dude. Kyle, real quick, Kyle, did you... I know you said you don't have a certificate of authenticity to go with it, but do you know that it's real? This wonderful signature.

Yeah. You know... I don't know that it's real. My parents got it from me off... Or for me... My parents got it from me off eBay. eBay. Well, your parents got you

a Christina Aguilera... Drumhead. Drumhead. For Christmas. Signed by Christina Aguilera. She doesn't even play the drums. Yeah, why? Well, it was for Christmas.

Fuckin' Sheila E. Okay, it's for Christmas. But it'd be like... Oh, no, Adam, if that's it. It's for Christmas. It was a Christmas present. If someone gave a signature of Blake written on a football, you'd be like,

why is it signed on a football? He's an actor. I know. We did this joke on Workaholic. I did kick a field goal naked. Right. This is true, Adam. Okay, okay.

Go Wolves. Van Nuys High School. Shout out. That's why they gave it to you. And that's why I'm ready to part with it. All right. Have you crossed it with other signed things to make sure it matches?

I just want to... Absolutely have done no research on this whatsoever. I don't know if it's real. Hey, well, your parents paid good money for it. So... The Sharpie is fading. The Sharpie is fading.

Kyle, can you sign it as well? Yeah. Can you sign it as well? Yes, I can. Before you put it in the mail, you sign it as well. Yes. All right.

I can do that. I can write Kyle and Christina. Yes, yes, definitely. Can you sign it? Kyle Aguilera. Yeah, I'll sign it with her. And then it will be... Wow.

The real... Now I want to keep it, though. If I'm going to sign it, if I'm going to sign it, now I want to keep it. Yeah, that makes sense. Oh, you want to keep it if you sign it? Yeah, that's good.

So, hey, so I guess you have a take back now, then? No, it's still a giveaway. Oh, okay, all right. Good, good, good. Yeah, yeah. 69th commenter. Yeah. Comment often and slap that bell, baby.

We don't know if you're commenting on them, but we'll see you there. No idea. It's a post about it. Well, it'll have to be a freeze frame. It'll have to be a freeze frame. 69, dudes! That's cool, man.

The giveaway, first giveaway, number one. Yeah, man. That's fucking cool, man. All right. And that's another episode of... Sixty-Dins! Sixty-Dins! It is important!
