This is an I-Heart podcast, Guaranteed Human. Dr. Laurie Santos from the Happiness Lab here. It's the season of giving, and this year, my podcast, The Happiness Lab, is partnering with Give Directly, a nonprofit that provides people in extreme poverty with the cash they need as part of the PODS Fight Poverty campaign. Our goal this year is to raise $1 million, which will bring over 700 families out of extreme poverty. Your donation will put cash directly in the hands of these families in need.

And they'll get to decide how to use it, whether that's school transportation, purchasing livestock, or starting a business. Plus, if you're a first-time donor, your gift will be matched by giving multiplier, which means more money for those in need. Visit givedirectly.org slash happiness lab to learn more and to donate.

I'm Dr. Priyankawali, a double board certified physician. And I'm Hurricane Dibolu, comedian and someone who once Googled, do I have scurvy at 3 a.m.

Extremely. Listen to health stuff on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, I'm Radhi Dvluca, and I am the host of a really good cry podcast.

This week, I am joined by Anna Runkle, also known as the crappy childhood fairy, a creator, teacher, and guide helping people heal from the lasting emotional wounds of unsafe or chaotic childhoods. Talking about trauma isn't always great for people. It's not always the best thing. About a third of people who are traumatized as kids feel worse when they talk about it. Get very dysregulated. Listen to a really good cry on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. If one of us wins, we all win.

I'm Ashley Rayfeld, the host of the podcast. Good luck with that. Good luck with that is a skateboarding podcast about the past, present, and future of women and gender expansive skateboarding. In our show, we'll talk with skaters like Bobby Delphino on pushing style, culture, and the conversation forward. You break down the door, sick now like hold the door for everyone. I believe in that solely. So listen to Good Luck With That on IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Talking about guns with others might be. not always feel comfortable, but it could save a life.

Here's a way to start a conversation. Your family is going over to your neighbor's home for dinner for the first time. How would you ask if there are any unlocked guns in the home? Hey! Hey, we're so excited for tonight. Before we come over, though, may I ask if there are any unlocked guns in your home? Our guns are stored securely, locked in a safe that the kids can't access. Awesome.

Learn how to have the conversation at Agreetoagree.org. Brought to you by the Ad Council. Welcome to This Is Important, a production of I-Heart Radio, the show where we talk about what's obviously most critically, crucially important. Today on This Is Important. Stay in school. Blake's like the devil's cock. It's like a coven of meat-slinging wizard women, dude. Let's go!

Go, go, go, go, go, go, boom! Do it a lot. Oh, shit. What up. I liked that, too. Are you pissed now? God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God, God. Are you pissed now?

I'm pissed now. I'm pissed now. You guys both have really cool looks today. I'll say that. Yeah, man. We're coming in. It's a, hey, it's a new year, new me, right? Is it New Year?

Has it been a new year? it new year right now. I feel like we're close. We're kissing it. It's almost... Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Tomorrow's New Year's Eve. The sentence that wouldn't end.

Oh, hello. Tomorrow's New Year's Eve, great. Yeah. Well, dude, last week we should have talked about Christmas then. We fucking blew it. Oh, well, not everybody celebrates holidays. That's true. Thank you.

Did you guys get my holiday card? Christmas, Merry Christmas card? I assume I did. I don't know. Should be in the mail. You did professional photos, right? Well, yeah. I mean, yeah.

Sears. Professional. No, it's just this woman that comes to us and we go take photos. Woman. What is happening? Woman. Do you pay this woman? Yeah.

That's professional. That's professional. Yeah, that's what I said. Yeah. But then you like stepped it out. You're like, yeah, there's like a whole thing. Like, apparently she does it for money and then we give her the money. And then she takes the pictures.

No, you stepped it out, dude. I didn't step it out. I go, yeah. You're fucking disaster, my guy. And then Blake says Sears. and I go, no, not Sears. It's a woman that comes to my house. So don't try to fucking pin me down

with those sunglasses, dude. That's a professional. I know. These are not sunglasses. These are funglasses. Okay? Yeah, you're trying to pin me down, dude. Like right out of the gate, too.

You know what? When Blake said Sears and I said, no, dude, it's not Sears. It's a woman that comes to my house and she takes the photos. Uh-huh. But we wrote on the cards, Merry Christmas.

Of course you did. And then we send them out. Of course you did. I do like that it said happy holidays and you were like, and you went through them all and you just rushed it out. It's handwritten. No, we never even thought of writing Happy Holidays. We just wrote Merry Christmas.

And then I'm sending it to some Jewish friends. And that's the only time it dawned on me that maybe they don't like it. But also I'm like, I wouldn't care. I don't know if they don't like it. Well, I wouldn't care if they sent me a Happy Hanukkah card. I would think that's pretty dope. I'm like, hell, yeah, it's your fucking happy Hanukkah. Rock out on the Hanukkah.

So I wonder if anyone actually cares at all? It's just... I'm sure someone cares. Oh, absolutely. Somebody really gives a fuck. But I'm sure it's a little bit of like... I don't celebrate Christmas. What do I fucking care?

Just that. It's just that. Yeah, it's just a nice photo of your friends and coworkers' families. They're like, look at this. It's the divine family. It looks like someone came over their house, and they paid them to take pictures. Pro. Yeah, that's right.

But not at Sears. To answer Blake's question. Do you go pro, Blake? No, Blake does it. Do I go pro? I don't even do it. You guys don't do Christmas cards? No, no, I don't.

I really, really want to start. I will be honest. Well, why, if you really, really want to, it's so easy, dude. You just call a woman. She comes to our house. A woman? Why do you say woman like that, dude?

why do you say woman so angry? It's the way you say it rings very heavy in my headphones. You call a woman. You say, you say, you say, no, no, he didn't say, no, he just, he said you call a woman. You call a woman. The woman comes over in the way that only a woman could. What about just saying you call a photographer? Why is it, you call a woman? Well, in my case, it's a woman. Well, you don't want, you don't want a guy. You call a Christmas woman. And, and look, I'll say it. You don't want a guy. Yeah, you don't want a guy. What do you mean? The only photographer I know is a guy

You get a guy Next thing you know He sends you the prints It's just all your wife's cans And you go hey buddy What the fuck Yeah it's just all your wife's tits and ass Goodbye

What are you doing And he goes What do you want Hire a woman then And I go Next time we will What fuck is this? And also usually

And not always But usually Women Are better See did you like how I said it then I guess But you're about to say something totally not true.

What are you about to say? Are better with children. Uh-oh. Got them. I would say for the most part, women are better with little kids. Little kids are more comfortable to smile and laugh. Getting little kids to pose for pictures. And if push comes to shove, they can dig their fucking nails into their arm and say,

you give me one, you little sack of shit. You give me one. Or, or hear me out, they can whip their tit out. Allegedly! The child can suckle. What? Get some energy. I've heard about this.

I've heard about this. And then maybe they're ready for a photo. Yes. Daddy's drinking his can of C4. Baby needs his. Blake, it seems like you've never heard of this. I've heard of this.

Yeah. I guess. Yeah, I guess you're right. It's making sense. You just sometimes you have to step it out. Okay. Well,

all I'm saying is you could call a person. How about that, Blake? A photographer. A photographer. And you're the type of guy that you're going to see my merry, you know, a happy Christmas or Merry Christmas card that I sent to you. Uh-huh.

And then you're going to be offended by it because you're acting like such a bitch. You're acting like such a bitch right now. I'm actually not that guy. I'm actually not that guy. Okay. I don't mind what you're right. Well, then why are you so offended by you hire a woman to come take photos? It's just you hire a photographer.

It's interesting to say you hire a woman. Hey, but also it's not that big of a deal, dude. It's not that big of a deal, dude. It's not a big deal. It's just something that was ringing really heavy in my cans. But if it rings so heavy, then obviously it is a big deal to you, Blakey, that is such a big deal.

It's not a big deal. And Blake, I find that, I find it real fascinating. Coming from somebody who's wearing blackhead right now. Yeah, you're wearing blackhead. What? Allegedly. I'm offended. It's not black face, it's black head.

Yeah, I'm offended. I think you know exactly what I'm talking about. You're wearing what people call a balacloppa. This is abala clobba. Thank you. I'm glad you know the name. What you're doing is co-opting a look that black men have cultivated over generations of shaving their heads. And you're just trying to cash in on that until...

Oh, see, I didn't even know that. I didn't even know that. Excuse me. Excuse me. If anything. Now he's doing black head and mouth. Offended. This is ninja.

This is ninja. Even worse. Wow. Wow. I can't win with you guys. You guys are acting like women. You're not black. You're a ninja?

I don't... You guys are acting like women. Shut up. Okay. Now you're back of my good graces. So you just hire a person to come over to your house and take the photos, Blake. A photographer. Sure, a photographer.

Yes, a photographer. Yeah. A photographer. A human photographer comes to your house. A photographer, they. Oh, Jesus. Hey, I quit the podcast. I quit.

Adam's done. I'm done. I quit. I quit. I quit. Ladies and gentlemen, if you're turning in now, it's just me. Oh, fuck. It's just durs.

The D-back himself. The slippery snake of radio. Durs. Why don't you, why don't you do? I feel terrible that I don't. I really, really want to. I tell myself every year I'm going to. Even when it comes around and I have forgotten, once again, I go, you know what?

I'm going to do a New Year's one. You can send it after Christmas. Once again. And then I never do it. I never do it. I'm just, I'm bad with that kind of shit. And you could even have fun with it, like happy nude year, you know, and everyone's naked. I agree.

It seems fun. You could do that. It seems fun. I could do that. I would love to start the tradition, but I'm a failure. Well, your woman friend, sorry, I don't want to offend you or say anything that would really offend you, Blake. She doesn't want to do this? I think she does.

I think the ball's in my court, which is never a good thing when it comes to the family. I mean, if the ball's in your court, then she made the poor decision by putting it in your court. I honestly think that she did it on purpose. She's like, I don't want them. So, hey, if you could get on that, yeah. That's right. I disagree. I disagree.

I think it's a teaching moment. I think I, and I'm not learning the lesson. I was like, who learning? I'm not learning the lesson. And I need to step up and I need to do better. And I will. And you will get those cards. And DERS is mine in the mail?

What's going on? Did you send yours out? What's happening? I think ours is going out this coming week. I love it. We don't go professional. We don't go professional. I don't know.

We just... Who takes it? Some dude? We just have, like, pictures that we take. Just pictures that you... Oh, yeah, you do a collage sort of, huh? Sometimes we'll do a collage. Sometimes we'll do, like, one on the front and a couple on the back.

But usually it's just like our own photos. We don't do like a... Hey, on the beach, everyone wear linens or whatever. You dig through your... Your actual photos. Yeah, which I like, it'll be like them in like in Australia or whatever. And you're like, oh, that looks like a really fun talk. Yeah.

I like that. I love receiving them. I wish I gave some. I'm glad that I'm still on people's list without reciprocating. So thank you guys. I love them. They warm my heart. Yeah.

I think some of ours have gone out and some of ours hasn't. And if, if yours hasn't yet, Blake, we will take your card and we won't send you one. You do a tiered system, right? We're like the real friends get it that first. I'm off the list. Yeah, I might take you off the list. I don't know why. Some people have been like, oh, thanks for the card already.

And then I see like stacks of cards still at the house. I'm like, why didn't we get these all out at the same time? I don't understand the reasoning. Woman! My woman didn't do it. What's your woman doing over here, man? I don't know. Maybe the ball's in your court.

Maybe there's 14 that are in your court. Can you imagine? That lesson was learned a lot. long time ago here. Oh yeah. Chloe knows to not keep those type of balls my court. I can't play with those balls. No. Emma knows there's no court. Only she can play

with my balls in that way. Hello. Emma threw the ball and was like, where's your court? I got no court. There's no ball. We're not even in a league. We're in a league of their own. You threw the ball in the pool. Do you guys have big holiday plans or what's your scroll? Oh, I'm going to be able to

return home from Winnipeg for a little family time I can't wait to just be in the presence be in the presence of my family feel love presents you only care about the presents is what I just swear

Switch. I'll hit you with a switch. Yeah. Yeah. I don't really get anything and nothing, huh? No. Sorry. Chloe doesn't give you something for Christmas? Is this your first take back? No, she gets,

it's like some, I usually get like sunglasses. But it's the same pair of sunglasses every year. Well, that's something. It's something. It's something. Yeah.

Yeah, it's just, you're saying step up a little bit. It's not enough. It's not enough. Step up. Step up. You know. I get it.

Adam, you might like this. What's that? So we, I want a Nintendo Switch too, by the way. Yeah, dude, that's the hot gift. We were like, we were laid to plan

and everywhere is booked. And then I was like, let's just go to the hotel that Adam got married at. Let's go down there. Oh, that's where I'm going. What the? When? 69, dude. Right before Christmas.

Oh, we were going to go right after. We were going to go right after. And they go, our rooms are booked, but we've got a villa. And I was like, okay, well, what's the damage on the villa? And they were like, it's actually cheaper than two rooms. And I was like, but do tell. This is the way.

And so then Emma, like, is calling and they go, yeah, it's like a two-bedroom, da-da-da-da. And we're like, sick, book it. And then I was just like, it's weird that it's cheaper, that it's a whole thing that's cheaper. Call back and just like double-check the dates and all that. And then as she's talking to them, they go, yeah, actually the dates, it's got to be one less day. And we were like, okay, that's fine. And then they go, and it's actually a three-bedroom and it's X amount more. and she was like, what happened?

I told you, dude. But I fucking knew it. I was like, what is going on here? And they kept changing. And then they were like, we actually don't know what we can. What the fuck we're doing over here? So now we don't think we're going to go. But we still might, but we're just like, do you have the room at this rate or not?

That would have been crazy because we were going to go right afterwards. Can you imagine me and you? Just drunk. Just so drunk. Our wives are like, man, I thought this is going to be a nice little get away for us. Just disappeared. Dude, this sucks. Feels like I'm on the fucking pod.

Where'd they find that golf cart? That would have been so sick. Just down in Mexico. I'm really excited to get away. We're only taking such a short trip because it's just how family is going to be in town and yada yada. We're going to fly in. Have a night Have a day

Two nights, yep. Havana nights. It's going to be a quick one, but, you know, it's needed. And is that a, that's with, that's with, with the boy? No, no, by ourselves. So this is, that's why, that's why we, we're doing it quick. I know what's happening. Okay.

You boy. I'm starting to read, read the writing on the walls. I like that for daddy. Sexual intercourse. I like that for daddy. But, dude, we looked at everywhere, everywhere in Hawaii is booked, dude. Everywhere we like in Hawaii is booked, it's also a gazillion dollars. Mexico, not so crazy.

I hear it's absolutely sick A.F., dude. It's cool, but they don't want you there. Okay. Well, no one wants me anywhere. They don't want you there. There's a whole thing. Well, especially, like, when Blake's wearing this, like, he's a T. Teenager is about to rob a convenience store.

No, this isn't a shi-stie, dude. This is a straight-up, like, needed. I need this, or my ears will freeze. The blackhead you're wearing? It's a ball of colla. Bala. Thank you. That's what it is.

But, uh, no, because Adam, you have to, when you walk out in Winnipeg is so motherfucker, if you don't cover your mouth, your shit fucking hurts. It freezes. Your mustache freezes. Your nose hurts. Your lips start to fall off. I think, I think maybe you're just too California, dude, because I've toured through Canada before.

I've been there. I've been there in the winter. Brother. You've been to winter peg. Manta Snoba. I have not been to Winnipeg, but I've been to Toronto. I've been to Vancouver. I've been through North Dakota and Minnesota.

Vancouver is not. Vancouver doesn't get cold. They don't even get snow in Vancouver. Cove ain't doing it like this. Okay. Not like the peg. Okay. I'm just saying I've been in cold places.

I understand the cold. I know. But it is very cold here. It is very cold. It's 16 degrees right now. Is that what? What is 16 V? Negative 16.

What is negative minus 16 V right now is what Isaac says. Hey, Isaac, that's a voltage. 16 voltage right now. It's negative 16 volts. Isaac is so dumb. Blake's got to get on a bike and power the lights in his room. Thanks for chiming in. It's negative 16.

That's cold. Here's the deal. Adam, it's, and it's... Adam, just give him, it's cold. It's cold. That is cold. It's super cold and it's not cold yet. It's gonna get cold.

That's cold. You're a bitch. wearing the thing, but it's cold. No, I enjoy a nice Bala Club. I think it's a good time. I call it a ski mask. That's what I'm going to keep calling it. You call whatever word that is. I've never heard that word before. You put

on some skis and I'll call it a ski mask player. Okay, bro. You feel me? Feel me on that? Okay. Okay. Sorry. These sunglasses. I like you. It's been it's been a few years now since I've even seen snow. Oh, I

You're slipping, boo. It's cool. I don't, you know, I don't, uh, like it. Yeah. I don't, I'm not a skier. You don't like watching snowfall? The show? I'm not a skier. My parents now live in Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri.

They don't really get snow down there. Dude, you got to go find it. I shot righteous gemstones in a, in Charleston. They don't get snow. Yeah. So I've been, I've been living a snow-free lifestyle for a few years. Tosti! Hey, which that's the life for me,

as well. I like the sun. I like warm. We chase the snow. I like sitting in a warm place with the snow outside, looking out the window, just being cozy, stroking my children. See, that's where I'm kind of, I'm kind of the opposite. If I'm in a cold place, I like to be really, I like to just like sit outside and kind of freeze. I'm kind of into that vibe. And dude, if we ever did this together, I'd be inside looking at you waving. You could wave at me inside. I'll be smoking siggy's. I'll be smoking. on the balcony, you're inside. You're smoking in Winnipeg? Oh, you have to.

Yeah. It's Mando. Nice. It's Mando. Mando. And is Mando the full body lotion? Sorry. Yeah, so why, what you're...

But Isaac, Isaac, with the first ever good information, he facetimed me smoking. Amazing. That's such a Blake thing, too, to be like, hey, look, look at me. Look at me. I'm smoking a cigarette. I'm never not. I should be smoking. right now from prison.

What's your brand? Marble Reds? Oh, I don't know. American Spirit. I love Camel. Camel cigarettes are just number one. I love camel. That's a great shirt. Camel cigarettes are number one. That Turkish blend, baby. Give it to me. Why do you suddenly, you're starting to smoke cigarettes when my father is dying because he's smokes cigarettes? Why are you doing? He doesn't care.

I'm throwing this in Dennis DeVine's face. It is no, no. my father? What's going on? No, no, not at all. Hey, you got it. That shit's important. He doesn't like him. Got to hit that shit's important. And you know why his voice sounds like that?

Yeah. Well, that was kind of the thought behind it, too, is my character needed to be a little raspy, so I thought maybe I could kind of burn out my vocal. Yeah, nothing like a week or ten days of smoking to do that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Really hit it hard. Ten days. It's part of the process. It's part of the process.

Every time he's like, let me just light one more Chris here. well he didn't smoke cigarette oh okay but yeah yeah isn't that what adam just asked oh i said of lung cancer so that doesn't necessarily mean you doesn't necessarily but it usually does it is a huge proponent and all the oh all the cigarette packaging in canada is absolutely insane oh yeah it shows the things on it right like it's just lungs and blood and every filter says every puff is poison kind of fucking cool though you're sort of selling it, dude.

Yeah. They're like, you're smoking the devil's dick, and you're like, aren't I? Yeah. And Blake's like... Exactly. Blake's like... It's like fucking Slayer sponsors every fucking pack.

Blake's like the devil's cock. I love Heather, baby. Deep throat, baby. I should make like a... Like leaning into the cigarette culture of like, I know it's bad for me. just call it like coffin nails like let's just let's go honestly like yes and to be very sensitive to adam's father and lung cancer is a terrible terrible terrible thing but i do feel like cigarettes are

kind of they're kind of bouncing back a little right now and and maybe we shouldn't be glorifying them because they're terrible why you don't have to be so yeah we can glorify anything man if you didn't get the memo about cigarettes being bad for you yeah yeah sorry adam's dad's from an era that and they pushed it. You know what I mean? Joe Camel? Of course. Buying cigarettes.

Now, if you're smoking, we're from that era too. We were the ones who were targeted. We were the children that Joe was pipering over to a pack, dude. But that's just... Yeah, but Blake, see, this is where I'm hung up for you smoking when you're like, it's back, baby. You don't have to do the trendy thing and be...

You're no longer a youth that needs to be like trying to do what's cool and what's hot right now. I'm not, dude. And smoking cigarettes because it's cool and it's bouncing back. Adam, I told you it was a bit of character prep, but also kind of bored. Kind of bored. Looking for something to do. Yeah, well, dude, then you just do cocaine. Do cocaine. Yeah, that's true. Thank you.

No, Adam, I can't just be in Winnipeg in the snow snowed up. I can't be blowing rails left and right. Is smoking an activity? yeah it's a good way to be you know kill some time get warm sit out in the snow but not freeze the dead it for sure doesn't get you warm it does not get you warm it feels like it's doing it it feels like it's doing it it doesn't it's ailing fire why don't you paint bro are you are you working every day or like every other are you jerking off enough

are you jerking off enough thank you i honestly i'm not i'm really not jailing that we're concerned about you think it's the cold i think my dick is absolutely fucking terrified of the weather out here. It's completely retreat. I'm sitting with a fuck, my dick is smaller than ever right now. Shave your dick and see what happens. You know,

you get one of those like bags of, you get like a bag of rice or corn. I have a, yeah. And then you put that in the microwave. You warm that up. Then you come, you place it on your penis. A bag of corn. And so it really

warms. And let's keep this to a minimum. And it warms up the area And then that way You've thought out your dick And it's ready to go It's ready And then you put your hand on top of it So your hand is ready to go

And then you The whole The plate is set The plate is set For you to J.O. Instead of smoking all these sigs, dude Wait, wait And if you're listening at home

Don't try this at home Step me through this again You take some frozen corn No, not frozen corn No, no, no, no Just a bag of corn Like a cloth bag Like a cloth bag

Like We can Yeah Like it could be in like a A paper towel Like a fanny pack? What do we talk It could be in like a fanny pack

Or it could be in like A pillow case Could be in a pillow case Or something And then you warm it up So I'm So I'm taking my pillow Out of the case

I'm filling the case With frozen corn I'm putting it in the microphone. It's just, it's not even, it's not frozen corn. It's just corn. Like you would just buy, like a, like a can, a can of corn. Like a, a, a, a year of corn. Mm-hmm.

And then you shuck it. It's not shucked. Or like beans or like a, like a, or like a, or like rocks. It could just, it could literally be rocks. Okay. That would, that would take the heat. An ear of corn or some rocks. got it

my child has these things that you that they're called like old sleepies or something and it's filled with like some kind of beads and you put it in the microwave and then you put it in them

when they're going to bed and it's warm and it's snugly and they cuddle up to it those microwaves are still in there bro I was thinking for you since you're having a hard time jerking off

because you're too cold and you're since said doing this thing that's really bad for my friend and I don't want them to die of lung cancer you could then just jerk off more by getting yourself a little sleepy

and you microwave it and you place it on your penis Adam's been using these kids and then you put your hand on top of it no no I have not used it I've not used it but I'm thinking have you seen the baby's stuff I've thought that this would be a great idea

but I've not used it it's a moment where he's holding the toy and it's like a slow zooming And he's just like imagining the possibility. There's two, there's a fork in the road. And I was like, I live in Southern California. I'm not cold enough for that. It's fine here.

It's like 70 degrees. It's nice. Where you're at is negative 16 degrees. Yeah. Yeah. You might need, you might send you a little sleepy. It's negative 16 volts. Or whatever, whatever the thing is called.

It's not called little sleep. It's called something else. I'm going to send you one of these. So you can, you know, pleasure yourself. Friendship. You can get through the time. And so you can get, so you can, you know, not be so bored that you have to smoke cigarettes. Yeah.

Friendship. That was one of the sweetest things you've ever done for me, Adam. Thank you. Give me an address. I like how we're going from preventing lung cancer to just rubbing something with some microwaves all over on your day. Also, if we could get the official name of that product, I think that's a good sponsor for the pod. And it's probably a huge pivot for them. Because they're probably in the market just for baby toys, but dads can use them too.

I promise you, if you go to the factory, they're making both. They're already ahead of this. Just two different box. I got a weird Christmas Twix the other day that was like a snowman or something, bit into it. Guess what? It wasn't just bigger and wider. It was two, when you look at it, you can tell it's two Twix cookies packed into one. Oh.

They know what they're doing on. Oh, repurposed? Repurposed. Repurposed. Thank you. Uh-huh. Upcycled. Very shaggedelling.

Good for you, though. How was the Twix? It made me realize this. Whoa. Twix, a Twix is a Twix size for a reason. Candy critique. It was just a little too much. Too big.

It was just like you, that, I bet it in half. I'm going to do it in two bites. That first half bite was just fucking. lit me up. The cause of diarrhea. I think they're called warmies. I think I found them, and I believe they're called warmies. Take a bite of a warmness.

See what happens. Warmies, junior microwavable and weighted stuffed animals. Oh, this is getting dark. You can cuddle with it. You can cuddle with it. You can keep your hands nice and warm. You can keep your crotch warm. And then what you do is you place the warmie away from yourself.

You turn his little head. So you can't see what you're about to do. We don't want him watching. Oh, you got to cut the head off. And then you can do what you got to do in order to not be bored in smoke six. Got you. Awesome. Got you, dude.

Dude, thank you. Not you, dude. Honestly, that is so kind. Brought you by Warmy. You know, I've never smoked a cigarette. Never. Yeah. Hey, don't start, man.

It's a slippery slope. Don't start. I like Blake's talking like he's a grizzled vet. He's smoked like 11 cigarettes. Yeah. Don't start. I also like how you are like, I've never. smoked a cigarette, I just

smoked weed every day for 10 years. Every day, gee. That's great for you. Smoke weed every day. It does have healing properties. Absolutely. Well, it does. And also, when you're smoking weed, you take like five, six hits, and then you're

good. Then you smoked wheat. When you smoke cigarettes, you smoke ten cigarettes. One after another, after another. You're never good. Have you chained yet? Have you lit one with another with a with a with a a bud do they call a butt have you lit one with a butt no i have not that's a really good idea that's a really good idea then you're not cool dude yeah is somebody there on set that smokes that made you go can i get one of those and then the next day you showed up with a

pat yeah who inspired you i know blake isn't having this original he he must have been hyped by someone else yeah that's how he does it he's got he's got to see someone else look cool and then he's like oh shit i want to look cool what happened there. A little bit more. No. Tell us the truth. Tell us the truth. Tell us a little bit of that. What are those what are those houses that are like you go to kind of get right? Halfway house? Not like right. Halfway house. Yeah, but but, but read not read. There's another word for it. Not rehab. It's a halfway house. Yeah. But like they call it somebody something else. But I think I walked past group home and I was like, no, that's not, that's not what it says on the door. But the coolest

dudes are always standing outside of it. So yeah, I don't know. Your hotel's next to a halfway house, is what you're telling. Yeah. It is. It is. I'm in a weird part of town. You're halfway to the North Pole, motherfucker. So you walked past a bunch of recovering drug addicts who are trying to get off methamphetamines and their chain-spoken cigarettes, and you're like, man, I want to be like those guys.

I'm your friend. Dude, they were swagged out, dude. They looked tough. I believe it. Yeah, I believe it. They looked tough. I bet they looked tough with the scabs all over their faces because they were scratching themselves. No, no. These guys were, they were back on the path.

They looked good. They looked clean. Can you smoke inside? No, come on. Well, I'm just saying, so you're trying to get out of the cold and you're like, well, let me start a thing that makes me go outside without a hot animal on my lap. You have to, you can't always be indoor. Otherwise, in Winnipeg, you'll never go outside. You have to find a reason.

You have to find a really good reason. Like, I grew up in a place that's cold all winter long. The reason is you go, you heat your car, you run back inside the house. You run, you go heat your, you start your car, you turn the heat up, you run back inside. Then you go out to the heated car. Then you drive your heated car wherever you're going. Then when you're outside is when you park your car and you have to walk into the place that you're going into. This is the way.

And that's the being outside. But when do I get fresh air? What are you talking about fresh air? I need to go outside. Yeah, no, you need fresh air. You got to go smoke and get fresh air. Yeah. Yeah.

Well, that's the catch 22. That is. I got to get fresh air. Cash me outside. But, you know, I got to stay warm. It's really hard. It's hard out here. Yeah.

It's hard out. Blake, you're looking at it as a Californian. I know. It's all I know. In the winter, there's no fresh air. Ah, but that's so crispy. I love it. Dude, I was just telling my kids this the other day during swimming season in high school,

because, like, it's a Midwest school. So, first of all, it's all, it's all. it's all inside. It's none of this California lockers outside, Bayside High type shit. Yeah, that's wild. It's all inside. So during swimming season,

you go to school before six when it's still dark out. You go to swim practice, you go right into school, you're inside the whole day for school, you go straight to swim practice after school. When you leave swim practice, it's dark again. You just don't see light for months.

It's been months. That's, that's, that's, that's, That's the life I'm living right now. Vampire style. That's the life I'm living right now. It's very much I don't even. I see no sun. Well, that's when we were shooting Game Over Man.

Look at me. I'm pink. Look at me. Yeah, you're translucent. Well, when we were shooting Game Over Man, we would go to work before the sun was up. We worked inside an old ice cream factory. Right. So it was so cold outside, which then made it even colder inside.

It's a place that was built to keep things frozen. Right. And then when we would leave, it was dark again. And wet. And wet. It's a fucking trip. I don't like, that's worse for me. If it's cold and wet, I'd rather it was just cold and snowy.

That's kind of fun. Cold and wet sucks dick. Yeah, I don't fuck with that. Is it in Winnipeg now? It's still early in the season. So it's probably still like beautiful, pristine white snow. Or has it already turned to that like brown, dark, slush? Slush the slush. No, no. No, it's, it's, it's like, it's fresh powder like every day. It snows every day. So it's like, last night was very beautiful. It was like an icy snow coming down. It was like, it was gorgeous. Dude, you got to get some fucking snow shoes, bro. I got these vans. I got these vans. I got these vans pretty thick. The off the wall joints. The like, well, they like have a, like they're like Gortec or whatever. I got them. Kick fucking ass, dude. Shout out bands. Oh, man. I didn't. I didn't. I didn't. I didn't.

Do I need to put in a... M-T-E. A little something. Yeah, they kill it with these. I'm, like, hyped with them. Yeah, those are cool. I'm usually a Sorrell boy, right? Keep it, Rell.

So-R-R-R-L. Are you hanging with the cast? Is that who you're... You've befriended? Are you going out? Are you kicking them with them? Is that... Yeah, that's my crew.

But, I mean, again, like, now our Fridays are starting to end at, like, 4 a.m. So, like, you have Saturday to kind of sleep, and then maybe we kick it Sunday and watch football. and try to fucking jam our faces with food. But other than that... And is that hard when you stay in character? Is that hard for you? Yeah.

Well, I'm smoking so many siggies. I can't hardly eat. I don't have an appetite to suppress it. So wait, Christopher Mint Plas also smoking cigs with you? Is that your smoking buddy? Is that what's happening? For sure. I know...

No one else has... Dude, I know Mick Lovin smoking a sick, and you were like, oh, shit, let me bum one. Trying to be cool. Seems like he might smoke. Dude. That's the meanest thing Dursis ever said. No, he's the man.

What do you mean? He seems like he might smoke is such a mean thing to say about a person. I don't think so. I think that it is. I think a lot of actors still smoke. Yeah. They do. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

They're posers. And again, it's interesting. That's their job. Their job is to be a poser. Yes, to pose. Like literally posing. They're like, looking cool. Yeah.

I don't know. I just feel like he seems like a guy who you would see outside of a bar smoking and you'd go, that's McLevin. He doesn't smoke. He doesn't smoke. He doesn't smoke cities. Tosti! Hi, I'm Dr. Pryonk Wally.

Okay. Well, I'm the one who hangs out at the halfway house. I don't really hang with the cast. I hang out on the stoop with the halfway boys, the real runaround crew, murder peg in the building. Did you say, we're out here? Do they call it that? Yes, sir. Come on.

because one guy got shot five years ago there no dude no no it's it's kind of low key like the murder capital of canada like it's okay but dude we're from america jack i know we're absolutely fucking insane more people got killed in my high school than how many how many people were getting killed in winnipeg a year i i don't remember this i think like 16 or something

but it's like a it's a pretty big amount Adam, do you want to make up any numbers about anything or what? Yeah, I think 16 or something. Well, you're grilling me. You're grilling me. I'm just asking. And you could say, I don't know. If I'm right.

No, I refuse. That's not good radio. I got to take a guess. That's true. 15. Adam just ordered a bunch of those hot lap things. This dude is so busy over here. I'm like, no, I looked up murder peg.

And so murder peg, it was coined murder peg. It refers to Jeremy. Skabicki serial murders involving the deaths of four indigenous women in 2022. So, hey, that's just a bogus ass situation. That's terrible. I thought it was about, like, gangs.

There's like... Way to be, like, kind of a fucking bummer, a downer, dude. That's really insensitive. I thought it was more about, like, there are, like, indigenous gangs out here, like, you know... Well, here we go. Winnipeg saw 45 homicides.

Yeah, it's kind of... It's kind of a big number for Canada. Anatoba have the highest provincial rate through that. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Forty-three. That's 40 more than I thought it was. Yeah. It's real. It's real. Then stop pointing the fingers, Canada. Yeah. This is on you, Canada. Oh, God. Say it. No, but, hey, I don't want to, you know, I'm not trying to, I'm not here to call Winnipeg a dangerous place. It's very, it's very nice. I walk everywhere. And you said, but you said it was gangs. There are. Well, yeah, but when you're there, you've been there for like three weeks and you're already dressing like your rob. in a convenience store and you're smoking sigs. I feel like this is a bad

influence on my boy Blake. Must be the culture. Yeah, this is the culture. You're up there ripping sigs, hanging out at halfway houses. If Winnipeg if you're listening, don't let my guy near the res please. It's all we know. It's all we know, baby. It's all we know. Oh, God, stop. He's tripling

down. And fat boys, I'd be busting fat boys every day. What even is that? What is busing in a fat boy? Is that like a wormy? What is that? Yeah, if it's not putting a Warming on your lap and jerking off afterwards? I don't want to hear it. Fat boys are chili burgers, but, dude, there's this place here.

You guys, I'm not even kidding. On some Guy Fierry shit. VJ's driving. VJ's has, it's probably one of the top five burgers I've ever had in my life. This chili burger fucking absolutely. Do tell. No, I know, I know, Ders. I know.

I'm trying to be understanding. You hear chili burger. You hear chili burger. I hear chili burger and I go, no thanks. You say, Tommy's. You're like, it's like, it's just going to be a sloppy. The chilies, the only thing you taste, it's different, man. It's like the chili isn't sloppy.

It's almost like beat. It just makes the burger more beefier. And the lettuce is all shredded and delicious. It is so good. You bring me one back? Okay, so VJ's is just a drive-in, like, little hut. It is literally a hut where these old women, forge the most beautiful

burgers you will ever sink your teeth into. I don't like how you said women, but yeah, it sounds good. Yeah, you said just how you brought it up. Yeah, you said old women. Dude, they are like these gnarled burger witches. They are... Stop. Okay. All right. They are. It's like a coven

of meat-slinging wizard women, dude. Are they trying to fadden you up and put you in the oven? what's happening? It's like, breadcrumbs on the way in? Yeah, like they get you in real quick, they get you out real. It feels like Hansel and Gretel. I'm telling you, this place is legendary dude. It's off the

fucking hook, dude. I like it. And I love your love of Winnipeg so much. Are you going to move there? Are you thinking about moving the family? At least get property. Do you have to get property? I've been looking some places. Well, whenever I'm literally, whenever I shoot

anywhere, there's yet to be a place that I've shot a thing at, if I'm there for more than like two weeks, I'm like, I should probably get a spot here. Hunker down. But I've never shot anywhere as shitty as Winnipeg. That's true. Dude, there's a charm. There's a charm.

I don't know if, yeah, I don't know. I don't know if I could do it. It's a long winter out here. Yeah. I don't know if the kids can handle it, to be honest. So you don't believe in your children. Are there children there or? When you see children out and about, at least me, I get super pumped.

I'm like, yes, these are some fucking survivors out here, dude. Stay in school. Keep on keeping on, kids. I mean, dude, isn't it amazing how it's always that guy who has that message who's like, and don't do drugs? And you're like, obviously. Yeah. A message received.

Well, he's like, don't be. like me. Don't be like you. I made all the wrong decisions. And Blake's like, he sees that same guy and at almost 42 years old, he's like, I'm going to be like him. Yeah. There goes my room.

That's so cool. You have one of two different shoes. I'm going to take that style of you. Wow, that's cool. Found these weeks apart. No, no, but I like the way it looks. I'm going to do that. Wait, are cigarettes back?

Wait, is methamphetamine back? Oh, my God. dude i will say i'm i'm like buying a lot of like workware too like high vis stuff so i love i'm gonna come home neon orange and yellow what is the brand up there for workwear dude you want to hear it want me put you on oh yeah that's where you asked i think that's just my whole my whole closet is about to be tough yeah love it great tough duck all in i'm going all in so workware so you're you like to play pretend and play dress up as if you're a working man.

Yeah, let me feel your hands. These are bitch hands. Yeah, yeah. Blake, a guy who's never done like a day of hard labor in his life, you're dressing up as if you're a working man now. A man of the people. I look like a portion of man.

Yeah, but you've never had. So what is the best? Not the best. Out of workwear, what do we prefer here, guys? Well, I mean, Carhart is obviously leading the way with... And are they Michigan, Carhart? I think they are.

And then Dickies is more West Coast. And of course, no. Ben Davis is the O.G for me. And Ben Davis is workwear. I always just saw like skateboard wearing and I guess I didn't realize it was workwear.

No, it's a workware. It's a workwear. So this is... We're talking just fashion now. No, we're talking workwear. Well, we're talking... Yeah. We're talking workwear, brother.

This isn't fashion. for going to work. I like this stuff because whenever... My job is acting. Dude, when you go to work, you go to a... My job is looking pretty. You go to a place where they put makeup on you, they do your hair. Someone brings you your omelet in the morning.

Ooh, that's too hot. They're like, ooh, would you want an assay bowl? Absolutely. And then you have to be head to toe workwear. So, you have to show up in your tough duck workwear to the place where they're going to pamper you and treat you like a little prince and then when you're done you put your work

wear back on after you put on your acting clothes whatever wardrobe that they have you in then you put your tough tuck stuff back on and then you smoke cigarettes smoke cigarettes on the way home that's a wrap

that's all we know it's been a hard day at work it's all we know brother it's all we know brother Oh, no. Hey, I think we've only got one more take out of Blake. He just lit up a cigarette. You always hear stories about, like, when some, like, actor in the 60s, like, had his martini brought in. It was, like, production knew, like, he was done for the day. Oh, was it? That was, um, that was, like, the rat pack guys, is they, they literally only had eight-hour work days.

Which, I feel like most people, civilized. Yeah, it's most people are like, yeah, it's an eight-hour work day. No, an actor's workday is 12 to 14 hours a day, every day. So an eight-hour day sounds crazy, but they would do it. And at 5 p.m. every day, they would bring in their martinis. The best. Sinatra and those guys, it would bring in their martinis, and that's when they knew it was the last day. And they call it.

Is that why they call them? Yeah. The last shot of the day was they're drinking their martinis. We're done after this. That's fucking cool. I don't know if this is true, but William Atherton, who played my father on workaholics of diehard Ghostbusters' Biodome fame. The man. He was saying that it, you know, because you talk with these old actors and it's just the fucking greatest.

Like, you hear the coolest. And he's like, you know, it used to be eight hours. But then the union, like the Transpo guys and all that kind of stuff, they wanted to kind of race to getting their hours for retirement packages. So they pushed for it to be 10 hours. And then it became 10 hours somewhere in like the 70s or 80s. And then they pushed for it to be 12. Because these dudes are just like, yo, I want to bang out 15 years and then just go retire to somewhere where I have a boat. And I don't know if that's true, but like eight hours sounds awesome.

Eight hours would be great. Yeah, but also would you, you wouldn't get anything done, right? Holy shit. No, you work harder. You move faster. You get it done and you go home. No, no, that's not true. What do you mean?

I just did this. I just did this Why do people do French hours then It's the same shit What's French hours Where you just go through lunch But they like come by and feed you Yeah

It's the season of giving, and this year, my podcast, The Happiness Lab, is partnering with Give Directly, a nonprofit. that provides people in extreme poverty with the cash they need as part of the Pods Fight Poverty campaign. Our goal this year is to raise $1 million, which will bring over 700 families out of extreme poverty. Your donation will put cash directly in the hands of these families in need,

and they'll get to decide how to use it, whether that's school transportation, purchasing livestock, or starting a business. Plus, if you're a first-time donor, your gift will be matched by giving multiplier, which means more money for those in need. Visit givdirectly.org slash happiness lab to learn more and to donate.
