Hi, I'm David Eagleman. I have a new podcast called Inner Cosmos on iHeart.
I'm going to explore the relationship between our brains and our experiences by tackling
unusual questions like, can we create new senses for humans? 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 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. Listen to Freeway Phantom on the iHeart
radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Welcome to This Is Important, a production of iHeart Radio, the show where we only talk about
what's obviously most crucially integral to the fabric of our very nature. Today, we talk about
did gremlins use real animals? I don't need to be called a king to make myself feel like I'm
worth it. Sasquatch exists in them thar hills. Bro, it's been bubbling since the mammoths were on
earth and you're not stoked. Here we go. Good morning. Welcome back. Good morning.
Good morning. Wake up. Saturday. I love doing this on a Saturday morning. This is when we were
all working. We had to find time to squeeze it in because, I mean, the podcast community would
implode if we didn't have a hot, hot, fresh out the oven new app. Hot, hot, hot, hot. Would it?
It would? The community? Yeah, they would. Kyle, are you talking the community? Yeah,
I just was wondering if that was the truth, if you heard that anywhere. Yeah, a lot of people
stop me in the streets. When I'm in the streets, they're like, a new episode better drop on my
skull. Or else I'm imploding. Personally, I'm imploding. No, they don't say personally,
they say the community. The community. Oh, that's where I had it wrong. I got it. And Adam, I don't
know if you're being serious. I can never tell ever if you're being serious or not. But is that
because I'm your favorite actor or is that? You are an excellent actor and you have a great human
mystery. You are a mysterious friend. Killer liar, dude. You're the best. But upon being out in
and about in Atlanta, I have actually had quite a few people come up and tell me they're listening
to the pod. So shout out to the community for listening. Yes. Yes. No, I get it a lot. People
are listening. It's pretty, it is pretty cool. It's true. It is cool. I got my first one in Oregon.
I was at some lake in the middle of nowhere and the dude at the harbor. Your first one?
Yeah. It's like for the podcast. Somebody, my first Hey, man, the podcast is great. Yes. All
right. As opposed to like yo, workaholics. Oh, and. Oh, I've been getting that since for
months and months and months. Well, you're lucky. I feel like I go out more than you do. Yeah.
You're out. I'm at home writing like a weirdo. Yeah. You're kissing your children and loving
your family. I got my first one as well. I was hiking in where was I? Lake Hollywood. Oh.
And the guy was coming up behind me and I was like, Hey, let's like move over. I'm going,
it's like, Hey, I'm listening to you right now. Oh, that's next level. He goes, he goes.
Oh, dang. I can scent that fart anywhere. Wet salad. That fart, that the sound of that fart.
I can hear. It smells exactly like he sounds. Yeah. You're like, wait a second. That's some hot
water trash. I found him in the wild. But he was listening to it at the moment. Yeah. And I was
like, and I quizzed him. I was like, Oh yeah, what are we talking about? You didn't believe him.
He said, come and you're like, you got it. And he was like, he was like, yeah. He was like,
I think Ders and Adam are talking about Peru. And I was like, I don't think we ever, are you lying?
What's up? Yeah, I think we did that. I think we did. First episode. I think that was like,
yeah, way, way back. One of the first. Oh, is that where you guys did bad ideas? Is that what
that is? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So he was telling the truth. We were talking our Peruvian days.
Beautiful. Good. Yeah. He was new. Well, you know what? That was the first episode. So he saw you.
Dude, this is what I thought. Probably stretching in at the base of the mountain.
As I know you do, you like to get nice and limber before you're early, early, early morning.
You got to get all the farts out. Yeah, you got to squeeze all the farts out before you
attack them out. And then he was like, I know what I'm queuing up. Blake, can you hit me with
my dad saying this shit's important? Sure. Yeah. Let me let me pull that up right here.
That shit's important. There you go. Because I got some pretty big news. I think you guys have
all hit me. For the community. This is for the community. Yes. We have a big news over in the
divine household. So my dad, obviously, he's been cancer dad for the last few months and
very excited that he no longer necessarily needs to rock that moniker because he got some
fucking awesome news that he has no detectable cancer in his body.
I feel like this is the that's amazing. Congratulations. Huge news. So fucking cool.
Yeah, it's very cool. That shit's important. The community must be freaking right now.
The community's freaking everybody. That's the quickest. That was so fast. He whooped its ass
in the first row. Do you think he was faking it? Was this even real? Oh, here we go. Yeah. I
personally never went with him to the hospital and I did FaceTime him when he was in the hospital
and it could be a set deep fake. It could be a set. But I don't feel like my dad has a technical
wherewithal because I am his son and I know I couldn't do that. So I don't think he is faking.
I do think it's real. So okay. Well, you are my most mysterious friend. Yeah, he might be the
most mysterious dad. So there's really the best liar, fantastic liar. The craziest shit happened.
He like had crazy pain last week and had to go to the emergency room. Oh, no. And he thought he
was having a heart attack. And he goes and he was like, fuck, I'm having a heart attack. This is
how I'm going to die of cancer. What is it like a SNL sketch from the 80s? Oh, fuck, I'm having a
heart attack. Oh, dude, yeah. And he goes and he is there and they do all the scans on him and they
can't figure it out. He's got a blood clot in his lungs, which can kill you. Here we go. That's not
good. That's not good. And then they put him on blood thinners and but they while they did those
scans, he was supposed to go to Houston to do all the proper tests this past week. And this was
the last weekend and he's in Lake of the Ozarks. And they at Lake of the Ozarks are telling him,
oh, there's your cancer. You know, we can still see it. They didn't get it all. There's still
Dr. Ozarks is back at it to Dr. Ozarks, man. They're just like no offense to them, but they
suck and they should all quit their jobs because they fucking suck at their jobs. Yeah, that's
the cancer again, man. That's gotta be the cancer. Dude, that's I listened to the podcast. That's
the cancer. Yeah, bro, I'm part of the community. Dude, that shit's important. And they're like,
there's the cancer. And so my dad was like, you know, not only is he bummed that he like,
now he has blood clots and he has to be on blood thinners for maybe his whole life.
And those are really dangerous. Those could just like up and kill you like that.
Blood thinners can or blood clots, blood clots. Yeah. And so he's, you know,
he's scared about that. And then also he's like, fuck, and I still have cancer. Like the goal was
to get rid of it this first pass because they can't continue to give you radiation on the exact
same spot. Right. Because your body just can't handle it. It starts to take a toll. Yeah. Yeah.
Hit the popo's out button. Yeah, getting over there. Sorry, guys. Thank you. I want to locate a
lot of these popo's out. Thank you, Blake. Obviously, when we're talking about radiating a
certain spot, you can't do it. That's popo's out moment. Thank you. Popo's out. We're talking
about cancer and radiation. We have to be quick trigger fingers on the on the drop buttons. Yeah.
And you also need to know exactly what these two are thinking about which button you're supposed
to hit. They're the ones that are dictating the buttons. I'm telling you. Hey, I asked for it.
I straight up, I straight up asked for it. This shit's important. Yeah. Hey, well, that's a good
one. That shit's important. Yeah, no, that's, you were leading into a story, the popo's out.
Adam is commanding. I'm dumb ending. Dumb ending. Dumb ending, commanding either way. Dumb ending.
I'm happy to be here with the board and everything you need from me. Just let me know. Cool. And so
when he gets to Houston, where the MD Anderson, which is a fantastic hospital, and he gets to his
doctor, he's, you know, obviously he thinks this doctor is going to tell him the exact same shit
he just learned a few days earlier, right, that his cancer is still there. It has shrunk pretty
dramatically from the Ozark from the Ozark doctor. My dad's like, yeah, it sucks that cancer is still
there. What's what's plan B? How are we going to continue the fight? And I'm FaceTiming him
more weed, more smoke. Is it more weed? Do I have to move on to gravity bongs?
Yeah. Do I need the volcano bag? Should I dust my volcano bag off? Yeah. Should I start doing hot
knives with that help a little more? I'll try anything. I'm looking like such an asshole because
I'm FaceTiming with them. Right. But I'm dressed in full Kelvin character from the Righteous
Gemstones. Oh, cool. They're like this your son? Jesus. So I'm wearing like a pink blazer with my
hair all spiky with like tons of rings and necklaces on and shit. And and I'm like trying to be all
serious and be like, yeah, thank you, doctor. Thanks for seeing us, you know, on this FaceTiming,
like a fucking looking like a total maniac. What is the most serious conversation ever to be had
with somebody with a foe hawk? That is that's up there. That's it. I look insane. We're also
doing this baptism scene for one of the characters. So the set is absolutely insane. And I'm in the
middle of the set is the I'm getting I'm waiting to be called to places. So I only have a few minutes.
And the doctor looks at my dad and he goes, I don't know what your doctor is talking about
in the bros arcs. No, actually, the doctor is like, yo, shit, son. So looks like, you know,
got no cancer, bro. No, he was like, he says that that was the spot that the doctor was confused
about in the Ozarks and thought it was cancer is actually scar tissue from it being radiated away.
And there's he cannot see any cancer cells. That's not saying that there's no cancer there.
And there could be, you know, some ancillary cells floating around that haven't formed a tumor yet.
But he's going to, you know, they're going to keep doing shit for over the next six months to a
year to try to make sure that they don't form a tumor ancillary, right? Ancillary.
Yeah, hit him with the ancillary one time. There's ancillary tumor cells, and named after good
old ancillary. Ancill. Ancill Adam's brother, Ancill Larry. Ancill Larry, Adam. Ancill Larry.
Remember Ancill Larry, what a guy. Yeah, so best case, it was honestly the best news we could have
gotten. I I've never really happy cried in my life. Okay. Have you guys ever happy cried before? Oh,
I don't think I ever have. Yes, I have. I have. Yeah. Tears of joy. Tears of joy. You guys have
children. So maybe maybe that. Yeah, that's what it was for me. My wife and I were trying to get
pregnant for a long time. And then finally, after like two and a half years, it was like, hey, I'm
pregnant. And I just like buckled and started crying. And like, it was pretty embarrassing.
You're like, I can't keep fucking like this. Or I was going to say it was the opposite. It was like
now she's like, and now we can stop having sex. We did it. And then I started crying.
Yeah. No, that was that was the moment for me, though. I was like, that's awesome.
I got a little misty eyed when he but I was on at work. So I like I wasn't trying to be,
you know, a fucking sobbing mess, blubbering. You didn't want to be made fun of. Yeah. Your
co stars are going to bust. Yeah, I tried to be cool in front of all my co stars. But it's important
for men not to cry. Dude. And let's I mean, yes, let's talk about that here. Men stay strong.
All the men listening. Stop crying. Stop crying, you bitch. Be strong, dude. It's embarrassing.
Yeah, let's go back back to when we weren't supposed to go back to end up for your feelings
emotion. It's honestly better. Yeah, hold it in. Chloe was with me. And then she went to
like go run an errand. And all of a sudden, I'm just alone for the first time since hearing the
news. And I'm just fucking cried for like 20 minutes, like happy, like not crying, like just
like like roaring going kind of. Yeah. Yeah. I still love you.
Snot coming out of my face, just like pacing around my house going. Yes. Yes.
Like a damn clippers. Dude, honestly, let's go.
Let's go to the doctor. It's just me saying, let's go. You had a faux hawk. You're screaming.
Let's go. You're crying tears of joy. Do you think honestly, I there's a 100% possibility
that a doctor has given a family news like this, a positive news like this, and the young go hard
bro in the family screams a little hockey kid. Yes. Screams. Let's go. You know 100%. And you know
that mom is kind of broy too. So she's like, let's go. Let's go. Come on. Come on. Let's go, Grayson.
Let's go. Who's this freaking bro mom, dude? Bro moms, real bro moms of Atlanta, dude. Is that
a thing or bro moms thing? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Down in Manhattan Beach. Who do you think is raising
these children to be the all star bros that they are? Yeah. It ain't the bad. If you have a son
named Bryson, you might have a bro mom. You might be a bro mom.
Dude, that's tight. I love some kid like getting his braces off and the dentist is like, son,
we're gonna be able to take those braces off today. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Go. I'm gonna be kissing
in no time. I'm finally gonna kiss Cherie. Who? Oh, no, man. Cherie? Yeah. Who's Cherie? Is this like
Paris, France? Cherie, the French exchange student? Is that a young girl name? What is that?
Yeah, Cherie. Yeah, that's a hot one right now. Yeah, I feel it. Cherie. Shout out to Cherie Slater,
Haven. Cherie. All the Cherie's out there. May you find your Bryson and make magical bro babies.
Little bro children. Yeah, say hi to your bro mom. Cherie. Let's go. What's cool about
Workaholics? It's just really going to be a time capsule for these children. Oh, these like bro
children that did not know about it. And then they're going to be like, they're going to be like,
because for, for a certain generation of people that watched, it's going to be like their cheers,
you know, like, like their comfort show that the parents watched. And then now they're raising
these kids and they're like, yeah, I got to put my comfort show on my Workaholics. And then they
cue that on. And then the kids start watching it and that becomes like, oh, this is what TV
used to be like. And then, and then the cycle continues. It breaks my heart is that we're
never going to be on Nick at night. Oh, god damn, are you sure we are Viacom? Yeah, Viacom could
make it happen. Yeah, we're a little too racy. I don't know. What was the show that just got on
Nick at night? And I was like, oh, damn, I'm getting old now. I feel like they just started
running like dude, all of them like say by the bell and like modern family. Oh, is modern family
on it? It's new, new. I don't know. But I'm just saying like they like the the time gap used to be
like 20 years. And then slowly after they just ran through shit, they were like, all right,
it's been six years. It's thrown on. Yeah, I think like friends is on Nick at night now. There's
newer stuff. Friends is everywhere all of a sudden. It's fucking crazy. Yeah. High-waisted jeans.
Yeah, that they need to chill with that. Because back in the day, Nick at night was like, I love
Lucy nonstop. What else? I mean, it was yeah, it was like Doby Gillis. It was here we go, Ders
pulling these wraps. Doby Gillis. Hold on a second. What's Doby Gillis knows all the shit. Never even
heard of Doby Gillis. I love it. Doby Gillis is like an old show from like the late 50s, early 60s,
maybe. Doby Gillis. You just made that. I have literally never had heard that ever in my life.
What the fuck is Doby Gillis? You never heard Doby Gillis? Dude, I like that we went from I
love Lucy, the most famous show of all time. Like that started the modern day sitcom to Doby Gillis,
a show three out of the four of us have never even heard of. I mean, but again, three years old
than you guys. I know a little bit more than you. But still. Doby Gillis. And then what's the one with
I'm thinking happy days. Mr. Ed. Mr. Ed was on. You guys know Mr. Ed. Yes, Mr. Ed. Oh, yeah,
that show kind of sucked, right? Mr. Ed did suck. Yeah, you're right. Mr. Ed sucks, right? Like,
what the fuck was that dumbass show? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. That doesn't. I watched it every
time though, waiting for it to be like amazing. I never watched. It was cool. They were just making
a horse talk. That's how funny like strings like tied to his lips and we just pull them or something.
Yeah, it was animal abuse like a mother. Yes, it was. It's a time capsule. You cannot do that
anymore if they would fucking make the dude talk. I know. And Kyle, as a as a film director, are
you angry that you can't just tie some strings to a horse's mouth and make him talk? Admittedly,
it would lower the budget. You wouldn't have to do all this CGI and make a thousand seasons.
Let me dance around this. The horse actually gets to be a star.
Yeah, I think like I'm not necessarily angry about it, but I do wish I was born back then,
so I could do it. You know what I mean? Yeah, to that point, I was just out in the wilderness
of Oregon and we threw on The Great Outdoors. Oh, okay, okay. Classic movie. Wait, when you were
in the wilderness, yeah, I was in Central Oregon and we were in a cabin and we watched The Great
Outdoors and they were like, is that bear CGI? And I was like, no, that's a real bear. And they
were like, how would they make a real bear do that? What is the production cost? This is what we
used to have to do. Like some crazy guy would train real bears named Bart that was in like every
bear movie and like wrestle this bear and like put on John Candy's costume and like fight a real
bear. And they're like, what? See, and that's what sucks about like the animal cruelty people
is now there's no. Thank you. Go off, King. Let's go off, bro. Thank you. Now there's no,
there's no Bart. There's no star of a bear. There's no bear that's getting his his shine,
you know, because now we have to CGI it because we're worried that we can't shave his head. It'll
be embarrassed if he goes right or put a fake like a hairless butt cheek thing on him on the bear.
Yeah, we can't put we can't shame this bear, even though maybe maybe this bear is hilarious.
Maybe he thinks that's a funny bit. Right. You don't know. You don't know what's in this bear's
head. They don't know. Well, that is interesting because like who's speaking up for yeah, exactly.
Somebody needs to speak up for the animals who want to perform. Yes, want to be comedians.
They're all speaking up for the animals and saying they don't want to perform yet they bring
them to set. Okay, I think they want to perform. Maybe they love it. Maybe they want to have sex
with me. What? What's that? What were other Nick and I shows? My three sons?
Happy days. Laverne and Shirley.
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 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.

What is your favorite animal starring film? Because I got mine right off top, fucking
Dustin Checks in, dude. That one was so money. Do you remember that show? Oh, sorry. You're
saying a movie starring an animal or like who's your favorite animal star of all time?
Because Bart the Bear is up there. He's in a ton of movies. Which one was Bart the Bear?
Dude, the one from Great Outdoors. The one from Great Outdoors is also in like the edge and like
every bear movie you've seen, it's the same bear. Do you remember the movie that was actually called
Just Bear? It was just a movie about a bear called Bear? No, I don't. I think I remember the cover
being like a shitty cover. Yeah, it was super cracking, though. That movie is legit. All right.
Now, did gremlins use real animals? Because I might say gremlins. Well, that's where I was.
I was like Harry in the Hatterson's. Gizmo was real, but the rest were all animatronic.
Yeah, that's what I thought. Yeah, gizmo was real. Yeah, for sure. And Harry in the
Hatterson's same thing? Was that real or? A real Sasquatch? Was that a real Sasquatch?
In the end shot where they all come out from the trees where they were hiding, those were real,
but the one in the kitchen was a costume. That's cool. That's cool that we're just
considering that. Yeah, like Mac and me, that was a great animal movie. Right. Right, Mac and you.
By the way, Harry in the Hatterson's does not hold up at all. I watched it the other day.
And it's like 40 minute long set pieces of just like, he's in the kitchen still just rattling
pots. No! I've been thinking about that a lot because I'm out here in the Sierras making this
indie film and there's like all these Sasquatch cutouts. Yeah, like keep keep an eye out. Yeah,
like Sasquatch exists in them thar hills. And I'm like, holy fuck, if I saw Sasquatch,
that would be so scary, dude. So scary. What would you do, dude? What would happen? Bro,
you should just take your clothes off and go for a walk and have some pictures of you.
You are the Sasquatch. Okay. Okay. Okay. I'm smiling through the pain.
Well, I remember thinking back in the day, like doing like an all rated version of Harry in the
Hatterson's would be so funny. Like you just can't like X rated plays a hardcore. And Blake always
takes this ain't Harry in the Hatterson's. Do I make you horny, baby? This ain't Harry in the
Hatterson's a porno parody. Bro, you know it would go off. You know it go off. Don't act like you
guys didn't watch the Pokemon parody. Yes. Hey, somebody's going to get off. Just a giant big foot
dick. I'd watch it. I'd watch it for sure. Harry and his Henderson's. That'd make my pecker hard.
Yeah, get off, king. Get off, king. I love, I love like everyone's calling each other kings and queens
now. It's tight. I like this. I love. I like this little thing that's happening. Go off, king.
I don't need it. I don't need anyone to call me a king. Yeah. I don't want that. Yeah. It's fine.
I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm a jester. What do you want? Emperor. Emperor. I don't need any of it. I know
I'm not a king. It's peasant. Say go off peasant. Yes. I don't need to be told I'm a king. How many
people are calling you king, dirt? And you know what I get? No, I'm not saying they are. The community
is out calling you king. Yeah, I'm just saying I don't need it. And maybe that's a privilege. I guess
the podcast community calls, calls me king. I don't know. Are they not saying that about you?
You're not that guy, pal. Trust me. You're not that guy. I still got to watch that clip. I don't
know what it is. Oh, you totally do. I love it. Nobody is calling me king ever. That's just not
happening on this street. No, I'm not saying to me. I'm saying on the internet, you see people
that's like, like someone will post something and then they'll be like, bless up, king. Oh, yeah, king.
Or like, Blake, you've said it like four times on this podcast today and you don't know what we're
talking about. I know what you're talking about. I'm just saying, I don't know about it enough to
have an opinion to say like, I don't need people calling me king. True. No, the reason it got in
my head is because you're the one who keeps saying it. Yeah. Yeah. But then Ders took a hard stance
like against it, which is strange. Yeah. Ders like put his foot down like, don't call me king. I'm
like, no, we calling your ass king. This is what I do here, guys. Go off king. I didn't say don't
call me. I didn't say don't call me. He says he doesn't need it. I said, I don't need it. He says
he doesn't need it. Adam is saying he loves being people being called king and queen and I'm like,
you know what? I don't need that. I don't need somebody calling me king and queen because it
clearly is like some sort of like support system thing where it's like, I'm going to put you on
and I'm saying I don't need to be called a king to make myself feel like I'm worth it. Here we are.
Hey, I like that. I'll tell you what I want. I want somebody to call me king of Queens. Okay.
King of Queens. Okay. Kevin James. Yeah. If you want to, if you want to cast me of the new king
of Queens. Yeah. Nick and I get at this dude. For real. Yeah. We don't, here I'm pot important.
This is important. We don't stand for supporting each other or positivity or like a support system.
Fuck it all. You got to support yourself. Okay. Well, no, we are this toxic tear down culture
that we are. This is toxic masculinity right here. I didn't say I don't want people calling
each other king and queen. I said, I don't want, I don't need to be called it. Fuck it. I don't need
to be walking around crying tears of joy around my house. Like maybe I am a king. Maybe I do matter.
Wait. Yeah. It is, it is weird how supportive people, I mean, it's just a rebuke of like
online culture, rebuke. Rebuttal. Rebuke. Rebuke. Is that the same thing? Rebuke. Rebuke. I don't
know. Yeah. There you go. Rebuttal. Root beer. Root beer. This is a root beer. It's a root beer
of just like of internet culture where people were so mean. Now people are being so nice that it
does feel like it's too much. It's like, can't we just be human beings? We don't always need,
I'm with theirs now. I'm with theirs. I'm pissed now. I was like, sure, king, king, queen. Well,
yeah, like we do support each other. We do support each other, but it's a very complex,
it's a very complex support that has to do with exactly what you're saying. Like, you know what
I mean? You know what I keep seeing? It's been a, it's Olympic week and people are in the pool,
they're breaking records, they're winning, they're losing, people's dreams are coming true, their
hearts are breaking. There's been a lot of, I'm going to grab the person I just beats hand next
to me and I'm going to hold it up like they're a champion too. Oh, no, don't like that. I'm cool
with it. Someone did it like really early on and now it's just kept happening and I'm like,
what? Yeah. Why does everyone keep holding everyone's hand up? No, I would be so salty if the
winner that just smoked my ass in the next lane over to me grabs my arm and then puts all the
shine on me like I just got seventh place and he just fucking beat a world record. Goodbye.
And he's holding my arm up and I'm like, yeah, that feels fucking sarcastic. If you lose, you
can hold up the winner's arm and be like this dude fucking just killed it or she just killed it.
You know, it's special circumstances. Those motherfuckers aren't getting any human contact
at all. They are locked in hotel rooms as soon as they have the green light, they are touching
each other's hands and wanting to feel human connection.
Sure. Did you just win silver? No, I agree. That feels condescending.
I just beat you. Let me hold your hand. Yeah, that feels condescending as shit. Maybe that's
what it is. It's like this guy's actually the winner and it's like, no, no, I'm on the higher
block. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah, I guess you're right. It should be the loser's place to
grab the winner and say you really didn't. Yeah. Even if the loser, I kind of think if the loser
does that and I just won, I'm just like, look at this motherfucker trying to get some shine.
True. Right. Because the picture's taken. You don't know who's holding up whose arm.
True. Great point. It's like you jumping into someone's photo. Just be like, and also me too.
And you're like, dude, we're not even friends with you. We have no idea who you are. Why are you
jumping into our photo? Oops. Right. Winning. You're from the Ukraine. I've never met you before.
I've never met you. Suddenly, you're my biggest fan. I don't know you. I don't want to know you.
You're not a king in my book, kid. Hey. You're not that guy. You're not that guy, pal. Trust me.
It's good. I will say that since you brought up crying, the most recent time I cried,
a lot of people cry about it, was during the opening ceremonies, which I was like,
I don't know. I got hell of emotional watching it. And I think it's just like,
all right. The Olympics are water work makers. Ders, you cried?
For sure. What? Ders cried? I've told you guys that this is the only thing that makes me well up
is real times like with Brian Gumbel sports stuff. And this is what the Olympics is. Oh,
yeah. It's sports stuff. That's right. True. Yes. But I will say, I think there is something to be
said for men, never cry. Please never cry. Don't start crying. But do not cry. Not, not in this
house. Yeah. What if we give the world, the men of the world one day, which is every four years,
the opening ceremonies to cry? The purge? Yeah. This is like the binge, but it's just like the,
what is it? I don't know. No, the purge. That's what I was thinking. Because the binge. I feel
like every... The binge is the purge, right? The binge is... I'm talking about the movie,
the purge. I know. I'm talking about the movie, the binge that was based on the purge. Oh. There
was a movie called the binge. What's the movie, the binge? Yeah. The binge is the purge, but with
drugs and alcohol. Yeah. Is it like a national anthem movie? Kind of. It's sort of. I don't know
who made it. I do. How come we weren't in it? I do. I know who made it. Okay. It's American High,
right? Whatever that company is. American High. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And they make like... Eduardo's in
it. Yeah. They make high school like specific type movies. And yeah. Eduardo from The Package
on Netflix. Check it out. Funny film. Funny film. I just rewatched the trailer of that. I was like
going through my photo roll and just saw the trailer in it and played it. I'm like,
God damn, that is... That was such a funny movie that I feel didn't get enough love. I feel like
it just got the algorithm kind of just buried it for me on Netflix. Go check out The Package
it's a movie that we produced. Our good friend Jake Samansky directed it. Really, really funny
cast and... Wild premise. Just a fucking wild premise. Wild premise. I mean, we gotta say the
premise or else people are gonna be like The Package or whatever. Maybe just tune in, right?
Okay. Go ahead, Unders. Go ahead. Scribe. Go off. Scribe. Let's see who tunes in. And then next week,
the one liner. Oh, stay tuned for the one liner next week. We'll see what the community has to say
after they watch the movie. The... Well, The Package essentially is a group of friends go out
camping and... Okay, Adam's gonna do it. We're gonna wait a week. You might as well. Yeah, who cares?
Let's tell them what the movies are. Go ahead. That's what I said. And everyone's like,
oh, go off, Scribe. No, we were like, go ahead. We were like, go ahead and do it. And then you were
like... I did say go off, Scribe. No! It felt like you forgot what the movie was about. So I'm like,
oh, shit. Well, I'm gonna bail out my homie. Let's just say I don't know exactly what it's about.
I did forget what the movie's about. Yeah, what is it about, Adam? Oh, Jesus. And we produced this
movie? It's pretty simple. It's pretty simple. It's really easy. Friends go camping. A group of friends,
teenagers decide to go camping. They all go camping. I don't remember any of this. One friend has a knife
and he's playing with it and he goes to take a piss and he accidentally chops his cock off
and they can't find it. They find it. They put it on some ice. Another friend goes to get a signal
on their phone and loses all their phones. So now they're kind of fucked. He was able to call for a
helicopter and the helicopter comes. They put the dick in a cooler. When they give him the cooler,
the coolers were switched and they gave him the wrong cooler full of all their beer and alcohol.
But they've already airlifted the kid away. And the kid was taken away with his
not cock and they have his cock and they have to try to get it back to him through the woods in
the middle of the night in order to save his cock. And this is exactly how Adam pitched the movie in
the room and it sold and... Perfect with us yelling at him. Yeah. And that's what Netflix screamed.
I feel like another good name for the movie would have been the wrong cooler.
Okay. That would have been cool. That's pretty good. Like if we're just going back and like, you
know... Oh my God! There is a story behind the name of the movie. Yes, there is. Very funny. The name
of the movie was literally just the eggplant emoji, but we couldn't clear that. The eggplant what?
Emoji? Emoji. Okay. I know what you're saying. What? How do you say it? You said emo. Are you?
Is that your new rap name? Emoji. Emoji. I'm the Emoji dog. So we were talking like a country
and rap crossover. I'm going emo rap. I'm going the little peep route. So don't worry about me.
I'll be over here with some paced hats soon. I believe that. Little peep. I listened to him
after he... Right after he passed, I'd never really listened to him, but that one album he had
before he died was fucking sick. He's actually really sick. The lane he was in was very dope
and he was doing it correctly. It does suck. It sucks, guys. All right, Pete, little peep.
Be careful with substances. And how did little peep die? I think he took a bad batch of pills or
it was some drug related thing. See, that's the trouble with drugs. They'll get you sometimes,
you know? Mm-hmm. They will. You have to be responsible. You have to... It's just...
It's a dice roll every time you do them. But you just said you got to be responsible.
That's not really part of the whole program. Responsibly irresponsible. It's like...
It's like the same as... You don't want to take a fucking crazy trippy drug if you're in a bad
headspace. You're going to have a bad trip. Some people, I feel like, are out here mad
and they're trying to take drugs to escape that feeling, but it's just going to ignite that harder
in you and in a very negative way. Sure. And also, people are doing crazy drugs. Let's just stick
to weed and alcohol and mushrooms and acid and ecstasy. Good old fashioned cocaine.
And some cocaine and lean and some pills. Whatever you find on the floor of a bathroom
in a club. Lick-a-toed. I would love to give that a ride. I'd love to lick a toad. Any kind of tea
leaves or something. Quick story, quick story. In college, a buddy of mine was visiting from
his school with his wild ass friends that were crazy. Yes. And we all went out. We had a good
time. They were being insane. And we got home and he put his boot up and we could see in the
groove of his Timberland, he had this B yellow jacket striped pill that was stuck in his boot.
We were like, yo, what is that? And he pulled it out. He goes, holy shit. This is probably
like some fucking drug I stepped on somewhere. And we're like, oh, fuck. It was like, it was like
clearly like a dick pill. Maybe. No, but it was like striped like a bumblebee. It was clearly
like some shit. And he goes, awesome. And he just popped it and like, no, with a beer and we were
like, no, this dude's out of the timbo, out of the grooves of the timbo straight into the system.
Yeah, that's irresponsible. I'm still going to send it. The same dude got into a bar fight later
back in a different time. And like, this is a bar we all went to as like, and this is a really
close home of yours. Wait, no, no, this is my friend's homie. Oh, okay. And like he rolled went to
college with him and he rolled out with us to a bar back home different time. Huge fight. The
people working at the bar that like we know, he like bit the dude's face. What's just one of those
days? And we were like, what is happening? He bit the face. Yeah. And like people were like
banned for life. It was not a good thing. We're like, yo, you're like not allowed to bite in
fights, but biting a face if you're going to bite, I guess that's the way to do it. Like biting
someone's arm is kind of can't vouch for this guy. He was a maniac. He was on bath salts.
Well, this is a whole different time. This is just like two stories of one guy. He's on boot
pills. Yeah, yeah, he's on them. Those those wasps, those hornet. This is a maniac. That is
a yeah, that's some real maniac shit. Watch out for those friends of friends. Yeah. Well, just
the people who take a pill straight out of their boot and into their mouth is that's a but sometimes
somebody brings somebody to a party and it's no new friends. Yeah, I feel like the ancillary friends
are where you get in trouble ancillary ancillary. Yeah. Yeah, it's always it's never like you're
I mean, sometimes you might have like one homie that you've just been friends with since like
the third grade and then he became his parents got divorced. His dad was a maniac. Right. He's
acting out. Isn't it crazy how everyone whose parents got divorced went crazy? Excuse me. Hello.
I'm the poster child right here. Yeah, where? Blake's hair used to be straight. And then it just went
wrong. Thank you, Daddy. Why don't you cry about it? Yeah, I guess I've been lucky to not have too
many friends in my life that like went totally off the deep end and went bizarro crazy. Thankfully.
Yeah. Other than Kyle. Yeah, Kyle's our friend. He might be the guy. I mean, by the way, he fell
off the pod. I don't know what's going on. No, this is what I see what Kyle's doing. What he's
doing is he gave us 30 minutes and we're all on zoom and Kyle just disappeared about five minutes
ago. And it didn't he wasn't trunking. All of a sudden he was just go he's just gone and he's
going to be like, Oh, shit, my internet went out. That sucks. Big timing us. I think he's big
timing us a little bit. Yeah, he gave us a hot 30 he dropped some dimes some gems and then dipped
some uncut gems leave him wanting more.

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?

reality. Listen to inner cosmos with David Eagleman on the I heart radio app, Apple podcasts or

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 got to get out of the house.
He's going to find out that I've seen this. He's going to come kill me.

I had to explain big timing to my seven year old the other day, like big timing like like a baby and
Manny Fresh or no, like when you get big timed by somebody. Okay. Okay. Did I ever tell the story
on here? What's the name of the dude? This is already ruining the story. The actor from he was
like the Freddie Mercury guy, the queen actor. Yeah. Mr. Robot. Rami Malik. Yeah. Yeah. Rami.
Did I ever tell my Rami story on here? No, you have not. I don't think so. Go off, King. So this
is me thinking I was getting big times so hard in a way that like I just couldn't imagine. So let
me tell you, Derz is not the one to big time because he'll come at you. He'll call you out.
You're big timing me. He's back. Hey, Kyle. Sorry about that. We thought you were big timing.
Sorry. We thought you were big timing us and Derz has a story about just to catch you up. Derz
has a story about big timing starring maybe Rami Malik. It's science. Right. Oh, okay. Great.
Go off. So at Comic Con several years ago, Rami Malik came over to our table at a restaurant
with Christian Slater to be like, yo, like, I watch your guys show. Workaholics like love it.
And he's like a younger dude. So we were like, for sure, you're right in our demo, man. Like,
what are you doing here? He was talking about the robot show. Mr. Robot. Mr. Robot. And we were
like, oh, sick. Sounds dope. Big time to him. Good luck with that. It hadn't come out yet. Right.
And like, we were like, yo, Christian Slater, fucking sick. Yeah, cuffs. He's your age, Derz.
He's 40. He's not like a super young guy. Is he really? Well, he looks great. And I think we
can all admit that. Yeah, he's actor skinny. He's got that actor lean, you know, dainty.
A dainty man. So then cut to like two years later, Mr. Robot came out huge hit, right? Like,
everyone's watching it. He's like, in big movies, he's on the rise. And I met some, some like,
agent part agency party or one of those, I don't know, something at some big restaurant. And I
see him and I go Comic Con. So it's all blurry. No, no, this is years later at like a different
thing. My man wasn't following Spago. It was at Spago. It was 1987 points. No. So I see him and
I go, Hey, Hey, what's up, man? And he's like, Hey, and I go, All right, let me just like refresh
this to his memory. We met at Comic Con. Anders. He's like, we never met. And I go, okay, okay. And
he goes, uh, and I go, no, like I'm, I'm from workaholics. Like we talked at Comic Con a couple
years ago. Like I'm super stoked for your show. Like you're doing great. He goes, I don't know you.
I've never met you. Whoa. I don't want to know you. That's cold. And I go, what? And he goes,
I think maybe you met my twin and I go, Oh yeah. And I was like, Oh yeah, I met your twin. That's
what happened. I met your twin somewhere. Wait, what? And he goes, yeah. And then he points
across the room and I see Rami Malik across the room. Then I look at this dude and I go,
this is Rami Malik's twin. And I go, yo, I did not know. And he goes, that's okay. You don't
have to talk to me. And I go, no, what's your name? Like blah, blah, blah. Like does this happen
constantly? And he's like, yeah, yeah, for sure. He has a resentment. Ders, I have that 100% exact
same story with Rami Malik. I have that same story. And we might have been at that same party.
I think we, I think it was a WME party at Catch in LA, which is like a fancy restaurant. Yes.
It's the spago of now. And I think we had just missed each other by like 15 minutes. I remember
us being at the same party, but we missed each other by a few minutes. And ships in the night,
ships in the night. And I had gone on a trip to like a Vegas trip with Rami Malik. And it was
like a hilarious crew. It was like the guy that played Hercules. It was Emile Hirsch. It was me.
It was Rami Malik. It was. Who played Hercules? Yeah, Sorbo? Did Horpe? Yeah, it was Kevin.
Kevin Sorbo. It was me, Kevin Sorbo. That's hilarious. That's the funniest. Disappointed!
Right. Disappointed. It was kind of a bizarre crew. And so we go to Vegas and I have a great
time with these guys. A bunch of hot guys. Yeah, a bunch of hot. That's why I was there. I was hot
boys. You're rolling with some hot, hot, hot, hot. So I had like a weekend with these guys. So I like,
know them now, you know? And I see Rami at this party and I go up to him and I like,
cup his titties from behind. Like, I come up behind him and like, grab his titties. 69, dudes!
And I'm like, oh, there's this hot piece of ass or something. That's something way inappropriate.
And he's like, excuse me? And I'm like, what's up, man? He just starts swinging.
And he goes, I think you're looking for my brother. I have a twin. He like,
let the cat out of the bag right away. Because I bet you were there. You did it already. And I
follow up and it's like, I'm done with this shit. Yeah, I think so. I think so. You gave him the
lowdown. I'm from Oracle Hall. It's the exact same thing that Der's told him. Right. He's like,
what? These are the dumbest guys ever. I hate you. I hate your show. Never seen it. Not a fan.
I'm an always sunny guy. Broad city's better. Fuck off. Fuck outta here. Fuck outta here.
But he's just always rolling with his twin to events. That's tough. That's hard to like...
I bet his brother, if I had to guess, his brother somehow involved in the business as well. So
it's like, yeah, when he goes to like big Hollywood parties, his brother's like, yeah, I want to roll
to that. Yeah. I would also say, as that twin, you want to be able to point over to your brother
and be like, I'm not lying right now. Because otherwise you have a situation where it's like...
Oh yeah. If you're just... Are you a twin? Right. That has to be so annoying because
Rami is such a specific, super nice guy, by the way. Rami's like a really great guy.
His brother sounds like an asshole, but... No, he was cool. I talked to him for like long
enough to make it not the worst. Do you love him? I'm sure it would be so hard to be the
twin brother of a more famous brother. Like your brother is super famous because Rami is so
specific looking. Very unique looking. Yeah. That you're like, there's no way in hell that this
man... There's two of this man walking around. That is actually funny. He's so unique looking,
and yet there's someone who looks exactly like him. Exactly like him. You're uniquely the same
as another person. By the way, I say he's unique looking. I don't know if he is. To me, he is.
Okay. Here we go. Okay. Go off. Maybe there's somewhere... Maybe there's somewhere... Maybe
there's an island of Rami. What I'm saying is that if you met like... If you were in
fucking England 2000 years ago, and you met your first Asian person, you'd be like,
there's no one in the world that looks like this guy. Okay. He looks totally different.
Then you go to Asia and you're like, oh, there's a ton of them. But that's in a scenario where there's
no internet. No. I'm telling you, he's a unique looking person. He's Egyptian. He's Egyptian,
right? I haven't gone to Egypt. There's not that many Egyptian people in our media around you.
Oh, you're surrounded by Egyptians now? That's how I roll, Doc. I didn't know that. Okay. Wow.
Is he Egyptian or are you just making this shit up? I think he's Egyptian. Yeah. Are you flying
around? You think? Okay. Well, he is the son of Egyptian immigrant parents. Okay. So maybe in
Egypt... Okay, great. So maybe in Egypt, there's a ton of people. But I'm just basically...
I'm covering our ass as we're like, he's so unique looking and people are like,
he's not that unique looking. Anyway. Well, I'll say we should go on a group trip to Egypt,
because I've always wanted to roll there. That looks so sick. Oh, man, I'm down. Yeah. So down.
To the pyramids? Let's fucking... Let's go. Let's go, dude. Everyone just looks like
sexy ass Rami Malik. Literally, let's go. Let's go. Dude, I want to see some motherfucking sarcophagus
bro. I want to see some mummified shit, Doc. You know, I think I would be a little bummed at
the pyramids, because every photo I've seen of them, I... What? Why? Okay. I've always imagined,
well, I'm going to... Well, I'm going to tell you. I'm about to tell you. I know,
but I want to express my confusion. Okay. Well, I'm going to tell you. Okay. It's because it looks
like it's in the middle of the desert and everyone's riding horses and wearing the outfits and doing
the thing. But horses. Camels. Camels, bro. Well, you can ride it. I'm sure there's horses.
There's horses. But camels specifically. Yeah. Arabian horses. Big ones. So you're riding the
camels and it looks like you're in the middle of fucking nowhere, like you're in the middle of the
desert. Yes, you are. It's fully in a city. Oh. You're not. Oh. Yeah. It's just like on the...
Like 100 yards away from... There's just a neighborhood. By the pyramids? Yeah. By the
pyramids. So here's my question. But you know that. But you know that. Yes. So what's the...
Where's the disappointment going to be coming from? Thank you. I think the just like actually
seeing it would be... I'd be like, oh, fuck. I wish we had to travel out to these pyramids
and feel like you're away from everything and feel like you're in a whole new world. Like,
you're literally... You can go to a Starbucks. A whole new world. Don't you dare close your eyes?
A whole new. Exactly. Do you think it's going to be like Aladdin? I do.
God damn, Adam. Your whole knowledge of Egyptian cultures through Disney's Aladdin?
That's not the same. Well, see, I don't want to go to Starbucks, have the ice not melt,
and I'm still drinking my Starbucks that I got. I feel you. That seems like your dream.
Yeah, exactly. It seems like your dream to have a cold Starbucks and then to hit up some pyramids.
I want to be like, I got to have snacks. We're going to be out in the middle of the desert.
I have a camel back. You want a journey. I want to pack my snacks.
I want it to be an adventure. Yes. It won't be much of an adventure. It'll be,
it's just a sightseeing thing. But can't you like, can't you do that? Isn't there some,
you can go on an adventure when you're visiting Egypt. Maybe it's not the pyramids,
but you could go out there in the Sahara. Yeah, for sure. I bet you could go like deep.
Oh, sure. I could see sand. That sounds tight. I have no idea. I'm very...
No, I had a similar thing. Adam, you just said, wait,
hang on. You can't have it both ways. You can't go, I want an adventure. And now when Kyle's like,
I'm sure there's other, and you're like, oh, so I could just go see sand. But that's what you're
talking about. You want. No, no, no, no. What I'm talking about is I go out and there's a tomb
in the middle of the desert that you have to travel to. Through sand. This motherfucker thinks
it's Indiana Jones. Yeah, he wants to be Harrison Ford. Yeah, I do. I do want that. Okay. I do want
that. I'm just saying, that's the knock. Adam, just go to Vegas. I've been. I've been and I like it.
Alexander. Alexander. Just shut your big yamper. Well, don't you... I mean,
isn't it weird that that is like they built... I mean, it's not weird because I guess that's where
the aliens built, but go off. People were there. So then they just built the civilization right
there. Yes, exactly. Like building shit near a river. Yeah. You need to watch Stargate right
quick because aliens did build that shit. But anyways, I had a similar thing Adam,
because I really like the show Rami on Hulu. Shout out to my squad. But he goes to Egypt in the
season and he's like on the freeway. And then there's just a fucking pyramid there. I was like,
I totally thought it was something like a destination way off. So I had a similar thing
where I was like, oh, shit, they're just out there. But that kind of made me like it more.
It doesn't make me like it more. But I mean, I still would like to see it. I want to see
all the wonders of the world. But like imagine being in LA and instead of looking up and seeing
like the observatory, it's like a straight up pyramid that was made way back in the day. That
just blows your fucking mind. To me, that's just crazy that it's built around that. Yeah, dog.
Bows your fucking mind. Yeah, we have the Liberia tarpitch. Yeah, we have the Hollywood sign.
We have the Hollywood sign. Yeah, we do have the tarpitch. That's right. Let's go.

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,

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 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.

Have you seen the NBC show called La Brea? That looks absolutely insane. It looks fucking nuts.
So what it seems, what I could gather from the commercial that they played during the Olympics
is the La Brea Tarpets open up and now there's a portal to a prehistoric world that this family
falls through and and they are now like in Land of the Lost dinosaur times. That was the show.
It blew my fucking mind. Land of the Lost? Land of the Lost? I like it. Remember that shit Saturday
mornings? That was the show. I don't. Yes, absolutely. And the sister was so hot with the glasses. Oh my
gosh, I had a thing. And we're going to post the the theme song intro to that right now because it was
fucking sick.
Also the little monkey bro was so cool. Yes, for sure. Not a monkey was strings tight to his
lips. It was like a dude in a costume, but it was so scary. Yeah, legitimately. Don't know.
Don't know that. You never saw Land of the Lost? Oh dude. Land of the Lost? Did you see the movie?
What about the movie? I saw the movie. Oh no. Yeah, but the show was where it was at. There was
like this little baby dinosaur and a little baby monkey dude and and then there was this hot sister
that I was talking about. Yeah, I think like Yorma Tacone. Yorma was the guy in the movie. Yorma
played the monkey in the in the movie, right? Yeah. I never saw the movie. It was cool. Isn't that Will
Farrell? It was God awful. It wasn't God awful. It wasn't. I won't. I won't do that. It's science.
I think about it a lot. What do you mean you won't do that? It was bad science. I won't say it's
God awful. That's a really... What does that even mean? God awful. What is God awful? It means even
God existed. It means God was... You know how God made everything, right? So he made that awful.
So it's God awful. That is a crazy as... It was a miss. It was a miss. There's nothing wrong with
the miss. All those people have had plenty of successes. They're not total losers. There's a
scene in that movie that's kind of cool where they were using like auto-tune when they were touching
some urban shit and I thought that was cool. What's up with that? I bet it's dope. I bet it's
good. Yeah, I think it was sick. Adam won't see any land of the lost products. I'm not going to know,
sir. I don't like it. When you guys were kids, just to go back to tar pits because... We have to.
When I was a kid, I had a vision of the La Brea tar pits being like this super epic place. Did
you guys uphold it in your memory as something that was supposed to be awesome? We did not know
about it. Yeah, we didn't even know that it was a thing. No, I knew about it, Blake. Well, I love
dinosaurs as a kid. Like La Brea tar pits was some shit you heard about in the street. Well,
yeah, you guys are California kids. California. You guys are California kids in the Midwest.
What Midwestern is? You don't care about dinosaurs? We don't know. We don't know about the... I didn't
know about the La Brea tar pits almost in like five... I'd live here for like four years before I knew
that the tar pits were even here. Wait, were the dinosaurs even in your neck of the woods? Mammoths.
Also, guys, let's talk to the community real quick. Thank you. Because the community doesn't
know what the fuck you're talking about, Blake. Yeah. Because if you're anywhere besides California,
you don't know about the La Brea tar pits. I'm pissed now. Did you not have dinosaurs where you
grew up? Did dinosaur bones come from where you guys grow up? Did they roam our earth? Yeah. I
don't know. Probably. I don't know. Like, were they in Chicago? Were they in... For sure. They're
everywhere. I think they named a dinosaur like Chicago Sorus or some shit. Okay, that's cool.
Don't quote me on that. All I know is that the... We have the big T-Rex named Sue. I think that's
our claim to fame. There you go. Beautiful. Okay, so anybody who doesn't know what the fuck
the La Brea tar pits are... Don't be rude to the community. Just explain it. Yeah, don't be rude.
Well, it's just weird. I assumed we were all on the same dinosaur plane, but I guess not.
Dinosaur plane? We're not. That's time. And Blake, I know exactly what the tar pits are,
but if you could explain it to me just to refresh me, I... Yeah, and we all know exactly what it is.
And I've seen it because what I've seen is there's like... It looks like a puddle. It's a tar.
It looks like a shitty puddle, like a tiny, very tiny pond. Yes. No, that's what's weird is because
in my mind, I thought it was this like giant, like desert of bubbling oil and tar and shit. But
really what it is right now is just this lake of tar in the middle of LA. It's like half a football
field. That's being generous to call it a lake. That's generous. It's a small pond that like
a rich person would have in their yard. Right. Like a rich Kansas person would say,
you drive past our pond up to the house. Yeah. It's like a lot of like mammoths and shit that
used to roam the earth would step into this thing and then just straight up drown. So a lot of
really well preserved like fossils were found in the tar pits. And that's what made it really
special. Dino DNA. To show up there now, it's not super sick. Yeah. It's just like in the center
of Miracle Mile. It's just like chilling right by the Ralph's. Right. Yeah. It's right next to Ralph's.
But what is cool is have you guys rolled up? It's still bubbling. Like it's still a tar pit. Oh my
God. Is it? I gotta go. It's bubbling. I don't give a fuck. Bro, the best thing.
Bro, it's been bubbling since the mammoths were on earth and you're not stoked. Yo,
are you for real? It's been bubbling that whole time. Those are could be the same bubbles. Yo,
I was at the beach. The waves are still waving. They're still crashing. Oh, yeah. That's cool.
Did y'all feel that wind the other day? The wind was winding. Yes, dude. I went out in the sun.
Dude, look at it. All right, whatever. It's still sunning. Did you guys read Farside when you
were kids? Because I remember one of my favorite Farside cartoons was just like a dinosaur selling
rugs instead of La Brea carpets. He's the bae. That's great. But there is also an actual store
called La Brea carpets. Lawrence of La Brea and he sells carpets, right? Yeah. Yeah. Carpet stores
have the best names. Words are fun. I love puns. I bought a dumb expensive rug from Lawrence of
La Brea. Yeah. Did you worth it worth doing it? Not for me. That was a Chloe. She wanted a nice rug
and admittedly now that it's in my house, I really like it. But goddamn, are rugs fucking expensive?
Bro, I feel that I'm just like, holy shit. I didn't even know that they could cost that much
money. I was like, I was like, and I was wondering why they were being so nice to because they we
didn't like like they brought over one and it didn't quite fit in the house. Like they delivered
it and they go, I'm going to go back to the store. I'm going to bring 10 rugs and we're going to find
you the perfect rug. And I'm like, okay. And then he comes back. And then these men bring all these
rugs into my house. I'm like, these men are being so nice. And then it wasn't until like I gave him
the credit card to pay for the goddamn thing that I was like, oh, now I know, because I just bought
a fucking car to put on my floor to walk on. Jesus. I'm like, oh, that's why they're being so
fucking nice. Because those are definitely one of those items that if you see them places,
like you never appreciate that stuff till you actually go into a store and realize
how much of a flex a dope rug in your house is. I'm flexing. Right. So you so things for you are
based on monetary value. Yeah, yeah, not me. No, it's just sometimes you overlook things in life
because you don't realize what the price tag is, but flex and dog. Someone just put in our chat,
Persian rugs can be up to $30,000. They can be up to 150. I guarantee you some of the size of
these rugs where you're like, oh, yeah, whose living room is 60 by 40. Yeah. E 40. Yeah. E 40.
E 40. That's probably true. E 40. Yeah. I like how you think of like the richest person and Blake
immediately goes to E 40. Yeah. Well, I will say that 60 by 40 informed that decision and I just
have a built off of it. Yeah, that is true. Yeah. He just did the number thing. Yeah. But I'm sure
the most expensive Persian rug is $33.8 million dollars coming from Anna. This is a fact. Yeah.
The most expensive Persian rug in mine was less than that. I will say, yeah, it was less than 33
mil less than 33.8 million. Yeah. So I guess I wasn't as Blake like to say flexing on everyone.
Dude, your girl has such shitty taste. Yeah. I guess you're not the E 40 of our friend group.
I'm not. I'm not. No. Sorry about it. But admittedly, it makes it makes me go like,
because then I had some other rugs that I got just when I first moved in the house and
damn son. Yes, rugs. It makes me go like, oh, this rug fucking sucks. Now that you have like a
really nice one, you're like, oh, you appreciate. It's weird when you start to make money and you
just have nicer things and you're just like, oh, I do like this more. Yeah. I kind of hate that
about myself. Son, where'd you find this? I hate that. I like this. You know what, though? I bought
a I bought a fancy rug and it shed for like six months and we were like, how long because they
had like long fibers. It looked really fucking cool. It was a dog. Oh, look at this. And it ran away.
We hit him up and we go, how much longer does this happen? And they were like, it could be
two years. And we were like, what? Because their whole thing is that you bought it for
20 years, right? So two years out of 20 is nothing. And I'm like, get this shit out of here now.
Well, was it not? Because the one that I bought was like super old. It was like, you know, it's
like an antique. Oh, it was worn. This was like a new rug. By the way, that's how they really got you.
They're like, we just vacuumed this shit. You got a used rug. Oh, dude, I know. Yeah. It's like
used. There was like holes in it that you could tell that they fixed footsteps on it. Let me sell
a used rug. I know. I was that's why I was like, how much is this fucking used rug? Yeah. Did it
have some kind of history? I feel like they must have sold you on some shit like this used to be
in the house of Greta Garbo's kernel muscle on the floor of Spago. Just the fact that it was
super fucking old. And I guess that's cool. I don't I have no fucking idea. It is cool. It is
cool. Like if it like these things had a life before you, but like, get me in that rug business,
dude, where like when people die, you just roll through to the estate sale and scoop up some
rugs and resell them. Yeah, I'm down with that. So so old rugs are cool, but a bubbling ass fucking
tar pit is not impressive to you. But okay, go off, King. Go off. I didn't say a tar pit wasn't
cool. I just said it wasn't you were not impressed. Kind of did you kind of worship hold up. Hold
no. I said that it wasn't a big deal that it was still bubbling. That's what they do. But like
homies, they stay bubbling tar pits. You were like, you know, it's still bubbling as if like the
bubbles are the thing that's hot. No, that's not what they do. That's what it does. That it is a
special tar pit. If I had to guess, I don't think there's many tar pits in the world. You don't
know. Carpets over tar pits. That's where I'm going to be at. Okay. Thank you, Gary Larson.
Thank you, Gary Larson. You ripped that from my mouth, dude.
I can't argue that. I can't argue that. That just goes a little too hard. Carpets over tar pit.
God, you're going to be such a... I'll be right over here chilling for a couple minutes. Bubbling.
Okay, well, okay, so do we have any takebacks? Apologies, giveaways,
slams, epic slams, compliments. I'd like to compliment Dennis Devine's battle.
Yeah, dude. His fight. Hell yeah, brother. Fantastic. A true asker. That shit's important.
Yeah, it is. Good job, man. Hell yeah. I can't wait to see you. And I want to apologize to the
cancer. Sorry, you're off the project. There we go. Bitch, you're off the project. Sorry,
cancer. You got your ass beat. You've been cancer. You've been cancer. Cancer culture. You lose.
That's for the cancer right there. I'll give a shout out to part of our community. Since we're
speaking of twins, it made me think of my favorite set of twins. Yep. Twins. Twins has released the
twins. Atiba and Akko Jefferson. I love you guys. My favorite twins. I hope you're listening. Dude.
Thanks for being part of the community. Dude, and our community is just growing.
Atiba's at the Olympics, man. He is. Atiba's at the Olympics. Let's talk about it on part two.
Okay, we'll talk about it next week on part two. I guess you know what? I'm sorry I went so hard
at the people raising each other's hands. Like I do your thing. I know that we're in the do your
thing era. So I guess I guess do your thing. You lose. But if you lose, you got to raise the
don't win and raise somebody else's hands. It's not nice. The meaning. I know. We'll ask them
first. Ask them before. Can we do this? Can I raise your hand? Hang on. Wait. You did really
good. Not as good as me, but you did pretty good. Sorry, my cap is over my ears. What did you say?
Can you raise my hand? They're filming us. Can you raise my hand? Yeah, I'm really tired. Hey,
next time we're all on a red carpet together or separate. You know how like they take group photos
and then they take separate photos. We all we have to keep jumping in each other's separate
photos and then raising each other's hands. This guy right here. He like he did it. He did it.
Blake is in this project. The era of guys doing fists at each other from like action movies. Oh
yeah. Like doesn't exist anymore. The boxing stance. It's so good. Like Dolph Lundgren, if you
follow him on Instagram, he was doing that like to his fiance or girlfriend or wife the other day.
He like had a fist on her chin and I was like, I'm like, I don't know what the message is here.
But he can do it. It's automatic for those dudes. They automatically go right into the fists like
boxer photo. Well, remember that wild ass story? Dolph like fended off like intruder in his home.
So. Oh yeah. What? Yeah, remember. Imagine if someone busts into your house and Dolph Lundgren
comes around the corner just like six, five. Get out of my house. You're like, absolutely, sir.
So sorry. I am so sorry. I was about to rob you. But wait, when was this? And did he tell us this
story? It was a few years ago. It might have been after he was on our show, but for sure,
like someone came into his house like a intruder. And I can't remember if they were fans and they're
kind of like, oh yeah, wrong house. Sorry, bro. Or if he beat the shit out of them. But he defused
the situation. Because I know LL did that. Great, great way to wrap this up.
All right. And this was an episode of. This is important. Thanks, Kyle.
Let's wrap this shit up. All right. See you next week. See you soon. Bye.

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.
