Starting point is 00:04:37 and we're three people on this earth yeah and that's it that's right are you one we come from the earth we will go back to the earth you know what I got
Starting point is 00:04:47 how it into this summer oh what's the Bible yes and we're reading every page every page E.T oh my gosh she was the
Starting point is 00:04:57 what to Phone home. She loves E.T. We watched it about five times within the first week of introducing it. And she received a lot of E.T. stuff for her birthday. Now, previously, she's had E.T. stuff.
Starting point is 00:05:08 She didn't know what the fuck was going on. Exactly. She didn't know. And then when we watched it, she's like, that's like my robe. You can't spell exactly without E.T. It's like my robe. Yeah. Does she like the guns or the Wokitokie Tockeys? Which version?
Starting point is 00:05:18 You know what? I think we watched. Wow, I actually can't remember. Does she like the gun show? I don't know if I noticed what happened. I saw that. I think it was the guns. Didn't they put him back in?
Starting point is 00:05:27 Yeah, they put the guns back in. Yeah. It was scary. You know, ET. Like, what are we doing? Kids can see guns. They're all over the fucking place. She's young for ET, but we talked through every part of it.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Like, oh, my gosh. Is ET like a Leo DiCaprio? Because it's very. That's no, it would be the other one. Can you imagine E. E.T. on the Titanic raft or on whatever. It wasn't it an iceberg?
Starting point is 00:05:48 Well, it was like a chunk of wood. Well, honestly, E.T would not do well in that scenario. I don't think he would. It was a door. It was a big door. It's a big door. All he's got to do is just, like, send a telepathic signal to his, like, UFO, and then it comes down. Well, he was trying to do that.
Starting point is 00:06:00 He needs a whole gadget. Also, what if he made it fly? He couldn't telepathically summon them. But can I just say, having, like, watching it with her. Yeah. You kind of realize, like, okay, there's that part where he's almost dead where he's, or he basically is dead. He's, like, laying face down in the water. It's so sad.
Starting point is 00:06:16 He looks like the old dog shit. It's really bad. They don't have anymore. And then. Old white dog shit. Yeah, yeah. And then, what do you mean they don't have any way? I don't, you don't see that anymore.
Starting point is 00:06:24 People, yeah. I'm glad you got there such a fast amount of time. You got there. What are you talking about? Oh, yeah, you're, because people pick up dog shit now
Starting point is 00:06:34 and we don't have white dog shaming. People pick it up. And Harvey Milk was one of the first people to popularize that. Well, apparently. Interesting. But so I just want to say
Starting point is 00:06:41 the part where he's in the like hospital situation where, you know, it's like those people inspecting him. That's like half the movie. He's like, beep, beep.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Is it really? It's so, It's like a solid 30 minutes of not more. I should rewatch that movie. I have not seen it since it came out. My parents watched it with us and they like loved it. It was like, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:07:00 We haven't watched it since we were. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I should see that. You know what else? I'm weirdly, I keep thinking I have to rewatch even though I don't believe that I enjoyed it. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Is Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula. Oh my God. I haven't seen it since I was in Sacramento opening night. I think now that I do not have an expectation for it, I think I would enjoy the vivid. visuals of it more. Right, yeah. And you're expecting, like, this is going to be a good movie.
Starting point is 00:07:27 Yeah, exactly. I don't know anything about it. Now it could just be a fun thing to watch. But, yes, I would like to see that. I mean, and Megalopolis. I'm okay with that. I don't need to see that. You don't need to see Megalopolis?
Starting point is 00:07:40 I don't think so. I've heard people talk about it, and I could see the appeal of seeing it, but I'm not quite there. I'm like, I could give that a miss. Yeah. Well, I don't know what that is. It's his latest, Francis Forcapola's latest. movie i think he spent a hundred and some odd million dollars of his own money wow that's investment
Starting point is 00:07:58 from his wine from his wine which i've had and it's good it's good is it's good really his wine is his wine is good it's a it's a definite solid bring it to a get-together kind of 100% 100% very drinkable good table water very drinkable very delicious um you know i was listening to jacqueline novac and caperlance podcast and they were talking about a movie that for a very long time that's like they were saying like all this stuff about how like it's so great and da da da and I missed what the title was and I just simply there was no context clues they never said it again yeah so by the way we were just talking about both E.T. and Bram Stoker's Dracula if you were wondering yeah yeah yeah thank you no I don't think it was and what were they saying about it maybe
Starting point is 00:08:42 we could that it was like something about social awkwardness something of the times you know it was a lot but it wasn't about friendship because I think they've already talked about it Maybe the wrong Missy. They probably were talking about me. That was like a big movie of the Times. Yeah, I think it was the graduate. There's a lot of awkward moments in the graduate. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Well, like, it's awkward that that lady wants to fuck him. That's so young. Awkward. Random. Random. That's a little weird. Can we talk? This is breaking news today.
Starting point is 00:09:15 It'll be old news by the title. It'll be old news. Because this episode will come out two weeks after it happened. Yes. But the people- By the way, I became a beeping asshole myself yesterday. No, what happened? I was backing out of my driveway and there was a truck blocking my driveway and it very nicely moved out of my way. And I need to make a like three-point turn to get to drive down the street.
Starting point is 00:09:41 And I made two of the three points and then the truck started like moving back to where it was. And I honked like, hey, you're going to hit me. and it stopped. To be fair, it might have been moving too forward, but I don't know. But then I noticed it was our landscapers, and I felt really bad. But that's not rude to honk. It's like you're basically saying, hello. But a real car horn.
Starting point is 00:10:04 You weren't like leaning on the horn. No, I wasn't, but a real car horn just sounds rude, no matter what you do. It does, yeah. You know what I mean? Have you ever tried to, by the way, I tried doing the just tapping. Yes, when you try to do it doesn't work on our car. And sometimes nothing comes out. Sometimes something comes out very frustrated because you're like, I don't want to, I can't give it full force.
Starting point is 00:10:21 But the light has changed and you need to go. But I really felt like, boy, isn't this ironic that here I was complaining on a podcast about two beeping assholes. Yeah. And I've become one myself. Well, what bothers you is what you see. He was technically a beeping asshole. Yeah. What bothers you and others.
Starting point is 00:10:37 I know is the thing that I see in myself. You know, people say that though. And I go, I don't know about that. Accusation is projection. But I had to. And I always do say, give a friendly greeting to everyone who was around. here, but I, I, I did give, when I came back, I gave like a, hi, like a maybe extra friendly, like, I want to say, I love you.
Starting point is 00:10:55 And he, and, and to his credit, he gave me the friendly greeting back. There we go. Everything was fine. I'm sure everything was fine. He knew. He knew, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, so. Well, what were you going to say about your, uh, problems and others? No, no, what, why did I, what I, why.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Is that what you're going to talk about? Your problems and others. Problems in others. the things that bother you and someone else are a reflection of yourself. The first time I ever heard that theory, I mean, since the first time I've heard that theory, I do like do a mental checklist of things. Yeah. If something bothers me, I'm like, is this because I do that? Did I do that? Or I have a similar behavior or something. Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
Starting point is 00:11:34 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's great when it's no. It's like, you know what? No. I just don't think that's good. I just don't like that. I feel, I feel able to go, I'm obviously jealous and that's why I'm feeling that way or something. Like I can usually quickly pull out and see that. I'm quick to see jealousy. Yeah. But another thing that's nice is when you say, yes, I am jealous because I think I'm better than that person. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:56 Yes, I'm jealous, but also that's really annoying. Yeah. Or whatever the thing is. But I tend to, by the way, I'm sorry. Hey, man, that's cool. No, and I want to interrupt you. I'm sorry. On this subject, I am, I'm glad that I'm able to now say, like,
Starting point is 00:12:12 I am jealous, but that's the way life works is, Yes. We all get different opportunities. Yeah. It's very true. And I'm not like back when you first start, you're like, God. Some people get the same opportunities over and over and over again.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Yeah. They get bigger and better opportunities. And that happens. That's just part of life. Yeah. So what did I interrupt you with my beeping asshole thing? My beeping asshole is me. Ah, yeah, you did it.
Starting point is 00:12:41 This happened this morning. We were treated to this video. it's the CEO and is the chief of HR officer having an affair at a cold play concert
Starting point is 00:12:56 and being caught on the Jumbotron really amazing what's so what's so fucked up about it is this was you know what we're talking about obviously video was captured of the CEO of some like some billionaire was caught
Starting point is 00:13:10 having an affair was playing for this company right that's no no it was no it was No, it was a real concert, but I think they've incorporated a kiss cam into their concert where they go around the... Weird! Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:23 Don't do that. No. I mean, you got to fill the time, right? I think it's fine. Find what? To have a kiss cam. Have a kiss cam? You don't have to kiss just because you're on a cam.
Starting point is 00:13:32 Then what are we doing? We're just like, here's somebody. Here's somebody else. Who cares? Let's take the kissing out of kiss cams and just have cams. Cams. Yes. Let's just call them crowd cams.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Crowd cams. Crowd cams. Here's someone else. Here's someone else. Although people are so excited. I was just at a Dodger game. We took Emmy to her first Dodger game. And people are so excited to be caught on the cam.
Starting point is 00:13:55 Can I say? So, but here's the thing. There's a lot of downtime at a baseball game. Yeah. So, of course, I've loved the kids. I love any kind of, now we're going to show a bunch of kids and they're going to lose their fucking minds
Starting point is 00:14:07 that they're on a camera. Now we're going to do the cups where, you know, there's a Dodger hat underneath the cup. By the way, they've made that too hard. well also it's not it's digital so yeah it's not like a human being doing it's not true they could put the ball wherever they want yeah but it used to be you could follow it reasonably yeah right and now it's like they turn it upside down now there's eight caps now there's fucking one of the caps you know explodes one of the caps it turns into a different cap yeah one of the two the caps start making out now that's well that's a kiss cam that's gross it's distracting cap can that's against
Starting point is 00:14:42 nature um but i i do love the kiss cam i love seeing people you love the kiss cam now this is i just feel like a concert okay i even like it by the way about the concert doesn't stop down for a while right you know what you know yeah like we need to fill time it's not like m night chamon's trap where it's like hey we need to change all the sets over for the next hour i got to see that movie i really want to see that movie but yeah imagine if like after a cole play song it it just stopped they were just like wandering around the stage for a little bit, like practicing. Ding, ding, ding, what key is this in? I do like on a kiss cam when it's, they get like three in a row of people going like,
Starting point is 00:15:23 oh, and having a big kiss, and then they catch two people and they wave it off going, no, we're brother and sister. Always funny. Always funny. It's great. It is funny. I also love the, they do the Lion King Cam, where people lift up their pets or babies. That's funny. It's fucking great. Barga the park is so good So what's that?
Starting point is 00:15:42 That's when you bring your dogs To Dodgers? Yeah so there's a certain section Where you can bring your dogs Chaos I was there at a Random sections We went on a day where
Starting point is 00:15:52 V-tubers were What's a V-tuber? So as I understand it And I apologize I haven't done a deep dive into this But there are these entertainers called V-tubers Who
Starting point is 00:16:04 film using avatars covering their faces of like anime characters and you never see their actual faces. I never. I heard that... What about when they're taking off the face? I heard that it's older men pretending to be young women, but then I said that to someone who knows a little bit more about it the other day and they went, you got to go more than the face.
Starting point is 00:16:25 Yeah. No, I'd buy it. No, it's more that it's their entire body. They're covered with these anime characters. So they... What's up, guys? It's me, sexy Jessica. But then it's all like, are you ready?
Starting point is 00:16:40 Let's go! But apparently very popular last year, so they did it again. What do they do in the guys of these? In the game, they just basically are like, come on Dodgers fans, let's cheer. So it's on the screen or something? It's on the screen. Are you ready to play ball?
Starting point is 00:16:58 But then there are a million, not a million. Show me what this looks like. It sounds terrible. I'm picturing men with women's heads using fake high voices. I'm going to show you... It's not good. I mean, he made... Google image in that way for search,
Starting point is 00:17:11 but it's stuff like this. Oh, I do like this. It's like little... Oh, well, that I like. It's just... It's like full-on sailor moon looking. Oh, well, that's good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:18 I was picturing it being kind of like a head on a body. I meant not what do they do during the Dodgers game, but what do they do in general? Why are they there? Who are you asking someone that doesn't care about this? You know what I mean? Like, you and I shouldn't know about these things. No, I know, but you seem to know about it.
Starting point is 00:17:35 I barely should know about it. I'm not alive to. I should barely know about this. I'm saying I went to this game and I'm confused by the whole thing. And then I see a selection of fans all dressed. And it's one of the hottest days of the year. Okay, man. Okay, man.
Starting point is 00:17:49 I thought you had more information than you have. That's all the information I have. I don't know what they do. Let's Google them. Let's Google them. Let's Google them. I'll tell you what Wikipedia says. They're an online entertainment who uses a virtual avatar generated using computer graphics.
Starting point is 00:18:06 They're one. person? It says they're an online entertainer. V-Tuber is an online entertainer. Oh, it's a type of person. I thought this was like a name of a group or something. No, the first entertainer to use the
Starting point is 00:18:20 phrase virtual YouTuber Kazuna Al I don't know. I don't give a shit. It might be. This is too stressful. I think we have to move on. In any case, there were people dressed up like these characters all throughout the Dodger game, which
Starting point is 00:18:36 found very weird wearing physical costumes yes wearing physical costumes on a super hot day that we were so uncomfortable there cosplay knows no temperature and you want to dress up like that you want to dress up like that you'll walk around in the fucking hundred degrees just like a sexy sailor moon cold play knows no temperature that's why it got so hot and by the way if you saw your lover on the cold play kiss cam with someone else your your husband your husband if you saw your wife if you saw cool up if i saw cool up on the cold if i was at the actual show if you were if i saw cool play at the cold cam what if you were if you saw cool up on the cold play kiss cam as a meme yeah kissing someone else that would be sad it would be
Starting point is 00:19:19 very sad for me yeah because in california you have to split up your earnings 50 50 she wouldn't deserve it they were both married they were she's put in the time yeah but then she did this shit i guess i'm relieved to hear that it was not like a company event because my feeling was because both these people both these people are married and that you're sort of
Starting point is 00:19:46 Oh she was as well I thought he had a wife and care No no no they both were and the idea that You're just going to do that in front of people Yeah And make them sort of complicit In your affair Exactly it's so gross Yeah

Starting point is 00:20:14 I want to know what alibi they told their spouses about where they were that night. Oh, yeah. Before the meme came out? Yeah. Like, oh, I'm just going out with some girls. Like, whatever. Because you can't, as an alibi, you can't say, oh, I'm going to a cold play concert. Because then your wife goes, well, I want to go.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Yeah. And he's worth $1.3 billion. It's like he, it's not like he can say, oh, we can't get a babysitter. Let me tell you something. Wives. love cold play he's worth a billion dollars you can't you think you're going to get away from the wife by saying you're going to see cold play no no no wife goes when you hear those pianos yeah oh you're in dinkle dong dinkle don't when the one guy
Starting point is 00:20:49 when the one guy don't dinkle don't dinkle don't dinkle dinkle dinkle um dinkle um and the one guy's um and the one guy's hitting a bell like the guy from and or yeah that makes me laugh so much when they play that song because none i mean pretty obviously none of them are actually playing their instruments. It's just all the backing track. Really? To see the guy is just hitting the bell. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:21:12 Do you think the name and or came from that thing of like and slash or when you're writing something? Yeah, of course. Definitely. Of course it did. And it stuck. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:20 He was like, do I call this person Fred and or Charlie? Wait, what about and or? Hi, Fred Charlie. I mean, on Star Wars, it wouldn't be that weird, right? Fred Charlie's a good Star Wars day. Fred Charlie. He got you two, Fritjali. Did you watch Andor?

Starting point is 00:21:53 I'll have to watch it. It's good just as a TV show. And I would say for Star Wars skeptics, perhaps, there is a, it's not as Pew, Pew, Pew. yeah it's much more about the drama and the story you know it's pretty crazy but there's enough pew-poo-poo in there yeah especially about politics oh there's so many weird guys I love it having done newcomers about Star Wars I felt like you know at the time we like watched everything and then to know it just keeps coming out just keeps going that's a thing and that's a hard thing
Starting point is 00:22:24 because I don't know how to catch up on that without being financially compensated yeah you you really did an and or one thing make it on this show okay and An Andor report. An Andor report where every episode you watch one episode of Andor and you take five minutes to tell us what you thought. I'll see if I'm going to watch a trailer and I'll see if it's something that I think I might enjoy. Or we could just bullshit for an hour like we normally do. Well, I definitely want to do that. There's a great little robot who has PTSD.
Starting point is 00:22:51 I love that. Yeah. See, I want the robots to suffer like us. Yes. Thank you. They should have problems. This guy is a nervous wreck. Yeah, they should have real problems.
Starting point is 00:23:01 I've seen nervous robots before. No, this guy has like separation anxiety. Nervous to be around Darth Vader or nervous to be around stormtroopers. Sure. Or like a hot girl. Yeah, exactly. The Star Wars Christmas special has a really horny part with Chewbacca's grandpa or whatever. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Who like puts on a porn goggles and like surf off. His name is like sticky or something. He's got like a dumpy. I haven't seen it since the night to premiered. Dumpy and he puts on porn goggles and like watches like a sexy Chewbacca. lady or something or some maybe it's not even Chewbacquette's like a sexy lady and he's a humanoid lady. And he's like yeah, it's weird. I tried, I found a copy of it and I tried watching it maybe 10 years or so ago like, oh yeah, I watched this the night. I was so, you know, into it the night. I hated it
Starting point is 00:23:50 afterwards other than the Bova Fed part, but I turned it on for like four minutes and Art Carney was there and I was just like this fucking, I'm going to watch an hour of this and just turned it off. Yeah, it's crazy. So I don't remember that. That's the part I do remember. skip ahead to where they all come in super high yeah all the real people all the real star who is like missing during it is it someone's missing that they're trying to help them reunite with someone i got a text alert on my phone about it but arson farb just missing on the star wars life day special um we have to take a break let me tell you something when you're talking about small things
Starting point is 00:24:30 there's nothing small about starting your own business. What do I know about it? I'm just a dumb comedian. Well, guess what? I sell things to people who are dumb enough to like my comedy. And that means I got to do businessy stuff that I never thought I would have to do and that I was scared of, quite frankly. But because I care, because they care, I figured out a good way to do it. Shopify. Shopify is the commerce platform that gets what running a small business is life because Shopify was once one too. Did you know that? I wish there was a prequel ad.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Hit that to-ching. Shopify is the commerce platform behind millions of businesses around the world and 10% of all e-commerce in the U.S. from household names like Mattel, Barbie Much, and Jim Shark, go to the gym in the ocean much, to brands just getting started. Now look, I'm setting up a store for my, Varietopia variety show. We're selling merchandise.

Yeah, because it came out on November 17th of 17th of 1978. Yeah, because it came out, represent it in 1978.
Starting point is 00:31:00 Right. That's why I think it represents Thanksgiving. Yeah, exactly, yeah. Oh, my God, look at mom and just sent me this picture of Holly when she was a baby. Whoa. Oh, my God. So funny because you think your kids are just all, you know, like when you're at that age, you're just like you're just that you're just that but then you go back and look at old pictures of them and you're like i don't even recognize this anymore i know i can't believe that was you yeah so cute so cute
Starting point is 00:31:25 yeah the cats and the cradle and the silvers food a little boy booed the man in the mood oh when you're coming on that i don't know when but we'll have a good time then so you know we'll have a good time then Do you think that was autobiographical? It's so strange to put someone on blast like that in a song. That's like some Taylor Swift shit. Hey, Dad, listen to my new song. Oh, by the way, it's going to go number one. And you're going to have to hear it. It's going to become part of the pop culture conversation.
Starting point is 00:32:05 Did you ever see that TikTok where it's Beyonce playing lemonade for Jayzie the first time? Oh. It's like it starts out. It's just the same guy playing. Both, same guy playing both parts. This is like sitting at a computer and he presses a button and then, you know, in the doorway is Jay-Z and he's like bopping along to it like great. And then it's the lyrics start to change. And then the guy's just staring.
Starting point is 00:32:30 It's really, it's really funny. If you're Beyonce and you say, you know what, I'm not going to forgive you, Jay-Z. Who do you date after that? I think, go back to J-A. Because, yeah, that's a good point. Start off the beginning of the J-L-E-L-E. I mean, you know, she could date anyone in the entire world. I know, but.
Starting point is 00:32:51 You know what? The answer is right in front of us, obviously. Pete Davidson. Oh, I'm sorry, of course. Having a baby, it's reported. He is having a baby. It's reported. Let's not spread and misinformation.
Starting point is 00:33:02 We've heard perhaps. Reportedly. She's fathered a child. She posted about it? Now people know we've had sex. Oh, okay. That's what his partner posted. Okay, great.
Starting point is 00:33:13 And now they're having a baby. That's good. That's ghost. We had a baby, it's a boy. We had a baby, it's a boy. Classic. I come on a Fieside. Was that one?
Starting point is 00:33:23 That was one where long distance calls were very, they were impenetrable and they were prohibitively expensive. So you had to get special cards and things. And it starts with a guy saying, I thought I was calling Phoenix, but I called Fiji. Oh, I remember that. make any fuck how no you spelled I know they you put it in a country code you spelled it wrong yeah it only works if like you're telling Siri
Starting point is 00:33:56 call call fee yeah and that was not a thing that wasn't a thing and so there's a guy at a resort answering the phone and he says something that sounds like I'm gonna see that oh and that guy's like boy this isn't my this isn't my grandma it's like no you're you're calling Phoenix no you're not remember one
Starting point is 00:34:15 800 collect I do how many how many how many how many wealthy people got paid to advertise one 800 collect those were good commercials they were good commercials but but it's so crazy i don't begrudge mr t anything no he should get his get his dollar it's so crazy that phone calls don't cost anything anymore or or if they do right i mean i feel like it's structured it's structured so much differently than it was yeah it's it's more complex but it's also, I guess it's easier to end up paying a lot more money than you have to. Guys, this is why we started Had Claims 8. You know what?
Starting point is 00:34:53 This is why Hack claims 8. Hague claims 8, if you are looking for a better phone plan, a novelty dictionary. Website. Website. Website. Sorry, it's not a physical dictionary yet. Yet, although. Well, it could be if we just printed it.
Starting point is 00:35:11 That would be kind of. Yeah, that's true. We could do that. We could do that. Have you ever just printed up a bunch of pages from the internet? I'm going to print out mariamwebster.com. I just want a dictionary, but I want it free. Well, free-ish.
Starting point is 00:35:26 What was the novelty part of it? I don't even remember. It would be novelty definitions of real words. So it's kind of like funny definitions, like a picture. Oh, it was like, oh, there's a like the definition of stupid like has your picture. Yeah. It would be like a little mirror in there. A mirror, yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:43 I'd be happy to represent. Gullabels not in there. Gullab's on the ceiling. You guys are like, what? Yeah. Goebles on the ceiling? Goble's on the ceiling. I know.
Starting point is 00:35:54 I know. It's serious. Oh, man. The end of, is it the end of patience or Axel Rose? Does that really low note? And then in one of the songs, he goes, yauza. At the end. What?
Starting point is 00:36:13 Are you thinking of David Lee Roth? That seems like David Lee Roth, I think Chris Catan. I forgot that was one of his characters. It was solid. Well, the first thing that comes up on the internet is, what is Axel Rose diagnosed with? God. Four stage yauza?
Starting point is 00:36:36 Four stage. I can't. Oh, it's Mr. Brownstone at the end of Mr. Brownstone. Oh, this took me to fucking. X.com, the everything app. Ewechah Hitler, Mechah Hitler. Docks me, Mecha Hitler. I was listening to Grimes on the way here.
Starting point is 00:36:56 Grimes. And I was just thinking, like, I wish I didn't know that she don't like Elon Musk. I wish I didn't know that. I wish I could erase that. Was it better when you didn't know anything about anyone? I actually think it was. Yes.
Starting point is 00:37:08 I think it was. Yeah. I remember when I was working. working with the Mr. Show guys that we were all impressed that someone figured out the production company address and sent us like a fan mail, a piece of fan mail. And I was like, wow, that's, that's cool. A fan actually reached out to us and was able to like get us a message. And now it's just like, fucking everyone can just send anyone a message. Yeah. Don't. Don't. It's weird. Don't send messages, guys. As Sprague the Whisperer has said, if you are typing anything on the
Starting point is 00:37:39 internet, check yourself into Shutter Island. he's not wrong completely but there are there are pockets of the internet that I'm really enjoying right now and I don't need to get in depth a show that we're watching we have we have now gone into rabbit holes on Reddit about that show is it are and people are very funny talking about it and I and I'm like you know what I like these comments oh yeah I know what you're talking about everyone's being funny but I there but most of the internet should be deleted I do think I think the the in all comment sections being able to Being able to write to anyone or comment on.
Starting point is 00:38:17 I think first and foremost... Maybe I should just disable comments. You could do that. Oh, it's great to disable comments. The news should not have comments available. Yeah. There should be no news reporting site of any kind that allows comments. Although sometimes it is like, hey, that's not true.
Starting point is 00:38:34 Well, you know what I mean? I think it's on Instagram and people are just able to comment on that. Or like, hey, you need to phrase this. This headline is misleading. This headline, yeah. But I think if I'm reading a website that is like a, oh, a journalistic website, and I'm reading that. I don't need to then at the bottom see some assholes thought about it.
Starting point is 00:38:49 Here's what I will say, though, in opposition to that. Okay. I'm open and available to hear other sides. Thank you. Yeah. Both sides. Get out of your bubble for two seconds. I know.
Starting point is 00:39:02 Just today there was the... Coldplay kiss cam. Oh, this is fucking. Did you hit yourself to hear? I did. I don't like this part. Oh, it's terrible. I need to put some cushioning here.
Starting point is 00:39:12 Yeah. Maybe we'll put some baffling there or something. Yeah, put some baffling. Why don't you wear some knee pads? I'll do that. Like pretty mercury in the case'll think I'll love video. And so NPR is getting defunded. PBS is getting defunded.
Starting point is 00:39:27 And so NPR itself posts this online with a picture of Chuck Schumer saying the Senate votes to defund whatever. It's like it wasn't. And people are like, it specifically was Republicans. You can't just say the Senate. Right. Why would they want to? Oh, do we have any stock photos of the Senate around? Oh, here's one of Chuck Schumer in there.
Starting point is 00:39:50 Why would they want to say it like that? I don't know. I think for a while they were thinking, hey, maybe we're nice to these guys. They won't take our money away. It's like, well, that's dumb. And then they did, and they're still like, it's so weird. I read something, and I don't know if this is true or not, but I'm going to throw it out like it is. Do it.
Starting point is 00:40:09 It's a podcast. Exactly. here this is anybody who's fact checking us on anything what are you doing no the podcast it was all about just saying untrue things and try to rile people yes but i i think there was a point where uh something about the FCC where they were trying to decide whether it should be legal to sell ads on news mm-hmm or not and they decided like oh yeah let's let uh news program sell ads and how different the world would be if they had never done that
Starting point is 00:40:43 because then news programs wouldn't be chasing ratings wouldn't be looking at the metrics of like oh when we talk about this thing our ratings go up and there probably wouldn't be 24 hour news channels because they wouldn't be it wouldn't be profitable. It wouldn't be lucrative
Starting point is 00:41:03 yeah so gosh wouldn't that be a great world they really would yeah it really would but instead we have this one and what about podcasts what about this podcast what if it was illegal to have god do you think podcasts wouldn't exist probably not if people are like I love the news doesn't have commercials why should I listen to a podcast they're just throwing things out like they're true they don't even know Mike and I have been have been toying with the idea of getting
Starting point is 00:41:28 dumb phones oh yeah and and having our smartphone only capable to be used on internet like on Wi-Fi in the shape of like an old like telephone you know receiver or something? I carry it around with you. The one that we're looking at is like a just looks like an iPhone, but it only does maps, photos, um, texting an email and you can't do anything else. Right. You can't Google anything, whatever.
Starting point is 00:41:54 Sounds like you can't Google anything. Yeah. That's a good one for like kids probably. It's definitely, it's like listed as being a great first phone. Right. And so I'm like, I'm kind of interested in the idea of having that. You probably want to add TikTok to it though. I want Instagram and TikTok.
Starting point is 00:42:06 Yeah. You should add that and then. but I and then the thought was that we would keep our other phones and just have them only able to be used when you're on Wi-Fi so you can like you could do certain things if you need to and blah blah blah if you were like in some sort of situation however it's already the idea I think I have to just jump in and try it for a few weeks but the idea already becomes like well what if I need to do this or what yeah and then it's like but the but we used to do that yeah we never used to be on TikTok well even like I can see we never used to tweet or twood or what. whatever you call it. Oh, this is my new peppy, by the way. I went to see a very good play the other day. Cold? Parade.
Starting point is 00:42:46 No, it wasn't cold. I wasn't on that kiss cam. You'll never catch me on the cold play kiss cam. But I went to see parade. You're on the parade play kiss cam? Yes, I was on the parade play kiss cam. What is parade about again? Isn't it dramatic?
Starting point is 00:43:00 It's dramatic, but it's a musical. Beautiful music, but it's about a real story about a, Jewish person who was sort of railroaded and tried for a murder and then parade. Yeah, because it was on the day of a parade.
Starting point is 00:43:23 Okay. And then the governor started to investigate it and let him out of jail and then a mob found him and hung him when he was released from jail. In any case, so Senator Warnock introduced it
Starting point is 00:43:41 Not live but there was an audio tape of him saying like You know please put your stuff away and this is my new pepief Is when people and Billy Bob Thornton does this on these new commercials When they say when they when they when they dismissively say like So Senator Warnock said anything that's like ringing or pinging or dinging Right put it away right you know and Billy Bob Thornton does the yeah you you're texting and you know like we're so far past the point of this being like something some people are doing and it's annoying it's like everyone has it's literally every person
Starting point is 00:44:17 on earth just turn your phones off that's the one device yes yeah i mean i feel like i saw a watch is pinging and dinging i saw a live show the other day where the person did it too and it's just like oh all of your apps and all of it you know they love doing it's like why are you so derisive towards this thing that you definitely use yes yes um um What commercials is Billy Bob Thornton doing? He has some sort of a data plan commercial. So he has a data plan and he's going pinging and dinging? He's a competitor to hadclaims8.com.
Starting point is 00:44:48 Well, they all are. They all are. They all are. We're climbing on top of them. Every other podcast phone company is going under because of us. I'll land on you, man. Yeah. But I do, you know, we did go see a movie the other day with our nephew, who's 15.
Starting point is 00:45:04 and he was saying he didn't like the experience because he wanted to be on his phone the whole time. That's sad. And didn't like how the theater was saying, you can't be on your phone. And it's kind of like, well... I don't like what this building said to me. That's actually really hard to process for me
Starting point is 00:45:24 because I think it makes sense. And apparently theaters are now trying to maybe do screenings where people can be on their phones all the time and all this. Meanwhile, when I saw Parade, Despite Senator Warnock's chastising the audience, the older woman next to me had a phone or a watch that lit up constantly. Yeah. And it constantly got my attention. Why was Raphael Warnock the person telling you not?
Starting point is 00:45:51 I think because it's in Georgia. It's set in Georgia. The play set in Georgia is an important. Let's get a video of him. It wasn't a video. It was an audio. It was an audio. That's even weirder.
Starting point is 00:46:02 But the wanting to be on your phone, your nephew's at an age where he probably didn't go to the movies for like all the pandemic. There's like a lot of child, you know, brain forming years. Like that would be an experience. We concentrate when we're here and we pay attention to the thing. And so it makes sense to me. We come to this place. Yeah. But it also makes sense with just that age wanting to be on your phone or whatever.
Starting point is 00:46:27 I just feel very sad when I hear that that like, because it's just. being in the movie theater is the special thing. It's way more. Do it at home all day long. I'm on my phone all the time. But when I go, if I actually go to a movie theater, it's almost like, oh, thank God. Someone has made this decision for me.
Starting point is 00:46:45 I won't say it's easy, especially like when something can get in your head about like, well, what if it happens with the babysitter, both Klupp and I are here? Or shouldn't I have it at least? Shouldn't I check it? Shouldn't I check it from time to time? But it is very satisfying. But I will say he also has. one air pod in his ear at all times and is a lot of people do that my nephew was doing that too
Starting point is 00:47:10 my nephew had but he had just gotten um because they were going to summer camp and they got these like just some little inexpensive mp3 players that so because they can't take any phones to camp and everything and uh so they put music on the thing but then he was he had that in his year while we were minigalphing and i was going like but don't be listening to this music while we're mini golfing were talking. Does that mean that joke has finally left my brain? And you're transferred to you. I almost headed the other day to someone
Starting point is 00:47:39 to like a parent at preschool and I was like, this person's not going to understand. What did I say that that sparked that for you? You said it puts the thing in the thing. I didn't say it puts the music in the music. I don't know what it said. They put the music in the thing. I think is what he said. Well, regardless. They put the
Starting point is 00:47:55 lime of the coconut. He was listening to that while hanging out. But I was like, well, it's not a game and it's like he is able to hear me. So at least there's that. Like, I'm like, I'm not going to tell them to not use it. Do you think games are worse? Games are worse because they're not able to, like, hear you while they're playing a game. True, but they're also not getting weird ideas.
Starting point is 00:48:15 Well, this was just music. He was just listening to, like, music that we had uploaded onto the thing. So we knew what all the songs were and they were all kid appropriate. But it's just, yeah, no, I think the YouTube stuff is really scary. When the kids are just on YouTube, they're in a whole world. that they've now stopped watching, but there were a lot of times where they just watch grown men play video games
Starting point is 00:48:37 and talk about it. And then I'm like, why is this guy doing this? Which is the guy in the video where he's like some guy who's just like walking through a Minecraft world and talking about it. And I'm just like, this is just crazy. I mean, it's that person's money,
Starting point is 00:48:52 but they're mostly... We sound a million years old on this episode. I know, but I'm like, but only nine-year-olds are watching this. And so that's when I start to think, why are you making... This is weird that you're... I want to sound even older. I have never been clear on what exactly Minecraft is. I don't know
Starting point is 00:49:08 what it is either. You build things. Do you destroy things? That's the craft. I don't really know what happens beyond that. I know you have to mine materials. Yeah. Oh, so it's like crypto. You mine so you can craft. Superman's dog. I don't care if I sound old. I think that this is just this is technology changing and it's weird. And I think that there were the people a little bit older than us, we're definitely talking about all of this when we were getting all of our phones. Of course. When I got a pair of modern. They're talking about Atari Adventure. When I got a pair of modern headphones, I didn't know that there was the setting where you can hear everything in the room as well as the thing. Yes. So I was like, oh, okay. And I'm pretty sure that's what our nephew has
Starting point is 00:49:47 on is the setting where it's like, because I would go like, hey, do you want to do or whatever? And he would answer me and stuff. But I think that his phone is in his hand. He's got one earbud in and he's just like scrolling TikTok the entire day and concentrating on that with half his brain and concentrating on talking to everyone that seems hard I don't use TikTok enough to have an algorithm that is suited to me
Starting point is 00:50:12 and so when I'm I can't look at TikTok for very long like just scroller I don't have TikTok yeah I don't have it either I don't look at it but I think with like and I'm not better than I have it just so when people send me TikToks I can see them easily you send a few TikToks. I'm always like, well, I can't see
Starting point is 00:50:31 this one. Here's what I try to do. I try to download them and send them to be able. That's nice. That's very generous. I'm a very nice person. You're so nice. It's like a gift article. When you think about like when you're talking to your spouse and they're on their phone and I'm definitely guilty of this. My spouse is a woman by the way where Michael will be like talking
Starting point is 00:50:47 to me and then I'm like, he's like you have to put your phone down because I'm like not responding. Yeah. And I didn't realize that I think that I'm able to do two things at once and I'm not. I'm very guilty of that. Sometimes Emmy goes like, hey, wait. Wake up, which is code for get off your phone. Yeah, that's scary.
Starting point is 00:51:03 Wake up. I feel that's part of my. Put down your phone. Wake up. It's part of my thing. She's all. Wanting the, the dumb phone, even though it's hard, very hard for me to give up this thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:14 Is that I don't want to be seen with my neck craning down all the time to my children. Like that makes me feel sad. When you see other people on their phones, it looks so bad. It looks terrible. It looks so, like it's so uninteresting. On Mother's Day, we. Emmy and Kulop and I went out for brunch and we had a nice brunch and we weren't on our phones. And then I looked over the table next to us and it was a mom and dad.
Starting point is 00:51:39 And they're two either teenage or preteen sons and all four of them were just on their phone the entire meal. And I was like, oh, God, I don't want to be like that. But then... Happy Mother's Day. But then life is so fucking boring. You have to like play games on your computer. I mean, maybe their conversations are terrible. I mean, who knows.
Starting point is 00:51:56 That's true. Maybe they all suck and like they put it down. instead they'd be like, eat your fucking eggs. Shut up, mom. You're so stupid. But I was like, shouldn't- Why should you get a day? I would always be upset at my dad for rules about stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:52:10 And my mom, I'm sure. But, you know, like famously, he threw away our TV for a number of years and just, you know, like, know this at the table or whatever, no phones at the table or whatever. So I'm like, I'm not going to be like that. So, like, phones are okay at the table, but then- No, I would say no phones at the table. Now I've started to be like... I think no phones at the table is fair.
Starting point is 00:52:31 There's a new thing called wait until eighth. And it's like sort of like a parental like commitment that like a, like, for example, like you and like your Emmys, classmates, parents would decide we're all not going to give them a phone until they're in eighth grade at least. And so it means nobody's left. No one's like that idea. And I even think eighth grade sounds young, but it's, that's also because I didn't get a, I had a phone in my junior year of high school, but even that was kind of crazy.
Starting point is 00:52:57 when I think about like the one asshole parents who would be like no I'm not going to abide by that I don't agree to that I know yeah because you know it's I know someone's gonna you know it's gonna have I know I know who in her I know which oh I do too I don't know why I know this but I I know exactly and I know exactly oh yeah I do oh yeah I do um all right we have to take break okay This is an ad by BetterHelp. You know, these days, it seems like there's advice for everything. Everywhere you look, people are trying to give you advice. I have the answers. I have the secrets.

And we do it every week on our podcast, The Deep Dive. Sometimes. we dig into the deep stuff like how I communicate with my dead best friend and sometimes we give

Come on, man. We've been down this road. I'm looking for information. Boy, you're just asking questions.
Starting point is 00:56:04 Just asking questions. It's time for a three-cher. A bus sterile. Holy shit. We're going to do a three-chard. If you would like to send us a three-chreter, don't. Yeah, never again. I have, that's funny.
Starting point is 00:56:22 I was at dinner, at a friend's house, and when I was leaving, I saw this book on their table. Whoa. And I said, please, may I borrow that book? I love it. This book is called The Omnibus of Party Games. Wow. It is written by Gloria Goddard and Clement Wood.
Starting point is 00:56:41 It is from Old Timey Times. It is a first edition, 1938, cost 1295. Oh, that's expensive. Things were expensive back then? Like, I would imagine it would honestly be a dollar or something. It can't have cost that much. done. Like what's, I'm going to look up, what's, how much is 1295? I did this on the, by the way, I did this on the gilded age the other day when they were offered $600,000 for the,
Starting point is 00:57:08 for the clock. Have you been watching? Are you fucking kidding? Wait, what? There was a payoff with that clock. Oh shit. Are you not watching? I'm sorry. No, I'm not watching. Why not? I thought that we were watching this together. Did you? I said, I said you an ad for it and you were like, Hell yeah. I have not been watching. How far into the season is it? It's like four or five episodes or something. And so the kid fixed the clock and then somebody wants to buy it?
Starting point is 00:57:36 So he put it. He put it on Craig's House? These are all spoilers. He put it on Facebook Marketplace? These are all spoilers for Gilded Age. I'm sorry. But the payoff to the clock is he patented the technology that he used to fix the clock. and he went to business with a guy across the street.
Starting point is 00:57:52 I call it the driver of the screw. He went into business with a guy across the street and they got a huge sum of money for it, which I was like, oh, I wonder how much that is. And I looked it up and it's akin to $12 million now. Oh. But he's still going to work for the people. What the fuck? By the way, this book, you say about 1939 or so?
Starting point is 00:58:19 1938, I said. Okay, $12. $12.95. $12.95. That is close to $300. But where does it say $12.95? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's $12.95 today.
Starting point is 00:58:33 Oh, it's got a sticker on it that it was sold recently for $12.95. I understand. I was like, why? What? I was going to say that book does not look worth $300. No, a book's in 1938 probably, we'll pay you to take one. Party games were hard to come by. So they had, they sold out.
Starting point is 00:58:47 You had to have this special edition, $300 book. Now, here's the contents. There are things such as indoor athletics, individual, indoor athletics team or relay, ingenuity games, guessing games, hilarious games. I don't want to play. Not for the nitwits. Fun with the alphabet. Oh, my God. Can you imagine how bleak that is?
Starting point is 00:59:09 Stunt games and gags. Although we just had it with the JZGA joke. The goddess of luck. We did have fun with the alphabet in that instance. It wasn't bleak. It was not bleak. But the first chapter is breaking the ice at the party. Okay.
Starting point is 00:59:26 And I think this might, we might find something in here and maybe we should have done this during the break. All right. Maybe we should have, but we were too busy gossiping about people we knew. And it was so fun. It was fun. It was more fun than what we're about to do. A lot of these. That of course, by the way, if you're a hag's claim, sorry, hag claims eight.
Starting point is 00:59:46 I almost said hags claim eight. If you're a hag. If you're a hag or an eight claimer, you get to hear all of the deleted gossiping that we do about our friends. So that's another reason to say it. Yeah, it gets deleted, but it gets uploaded to hag claims eight.com. Yeah. So that's another reason. If you are a user. To become, uh, you know, to get our data plan. That's a lot of the data that you're getting is who we're gossiping about. Just get it. Just get it. Damn it. All of these are like, you have to make cards and shit. What if we don't do that? Well, I guess we can't. I mean, I really, thought this would be easy.
Starting point is 01:00:20 That's too bad. Why don't you take that book home, dear? And read that all night long. All night long. Omnibus. Of party games. Tomolite set to boolia. Hey, jamba, jamba.
Starting point is 01:00:33 We go to not play so al-a-o-o-a-tumboa. Tumbleita set tibolia. Hey, jamba, jamba. Bata-da-pba-pba-ba-ba-a-oh. Yeah. We're going to have a part. Lauren, I couldn't help but notice, you weren't joining in during the singing of All Night Long. I didn't actually know those extra words you started at it.
Starting point is 01:00:57 Tumble it's et to moya? Yeah. I mean, I've heard it. I would never feel so bold as to say it. What about, what if I were to say to you, Mama, say, Mama, Sam, Mama, Sam, Mama, Sam, Maucosa. That one thing I had all the time. All the time. I often want to say that.
Starting point is 01:01:11 All the time. That's like if you could X-ray Lauren's skull. It would be a little Lauren singing, Mamma-Sama-a-Makusa. All right, well, I fucked up. Guys, do you want to apologize to us and then the listeners? Yeah. Okay. Scott?
Starting point is 01:01:27 Yep. Lauren. I'd prefer a separate one. I want to be noticed while you're talking to him. Scott? Yes, Paul. Regarding the snafu blunder. Situation normal, all fucked up.
Starting point is 01:01:44 Whatever you like to call it. I'm over here. I just want to do to kind of use that. Hey, hi, Lauren. Hi. I'm apologizing to Scott, and guess what? I've got something for you, too. Oh, I hope it's an apology. I will see what happens.
Starting point is 01:01:56 I would like to formally and sincerely apologize for not doing due diligence on the book, The Omnibus of Party Games by Gloria Goddard and Clement Wood. 1295. In today's dollars? In today's dollars, 1295, first edition from 1938. I should have looked in the book prior to, to us meeting today. I thought it would be,
Starting point is 01:02:22 this is an explanation, not an excuse. I thought it would be fun to discover it all together, but now I see I really should have at least taken a peek beforehand.
Starting point is 01:02:33 And now I'm realizing, of course, it was not as easy as I thought it would be. And doing something the easy way often leads to something like this. You know,
Starting point is 01:02:43 we could play should have, could have, would have. Should we just do that? Oh yeah, let's do that. Anyway, Scott, that is my apology. I don't need to hear from you.
Starting point is 01:02:53 I forgive, but I never forget. Lauren? Yes. I don't know if you remember, but the last time we tried to play a three-cher, I made this big show of having brought in a book. And, you know, with the implication that, with the implication that this book has so many games we can play, that we are set.
Starting point is 01:03:12 And obviously, I did not do any sort of research beforehand. You didn't even crack it. No, I didn't. You didn't even take one peek. I'm sorry to interrupt your apology that's going on over here. I just want you to notice me. I'm going to ignore that because this is your time. I feel like that was pretty weird.
Starting point is 01:03:30 You gave me the Heisman right there. I should have. I should have. Talk to the hand because the face don't want to listen. I should have researched this. I should have opened the book up and seen what type of book it was. And then I would have discovered numerous props are needed for, Various games.
Starting point is 01:03:48 You can't do that. I'm sorry to interrupt again. You could have made the props. You could have brought the props. And you could have gone to Party City. Add propped or a Hocker prop. Anyway, Lauren, I want to say that I am sorry. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:04:00 I wasted our time, your time, the listener's time. My response is that it's too little too late. Okay, well, it doesn't matter because I don't even accept your. I said I would give you an apology. I said, I don't care about that either. I don't care. You don't care? So why are you in doing it?
Starting point is 01:04:15 Because I said I would. I said I would, but you're only doing you because you said you would. Oh, so you're just saying, sorry, sorry, whatever. The apology is sincere, but I don't need to listen to what you have to say. I'm not going to respond to you. And now the listener. I'm not going to respond to you. Hey, you guys.
Starting point is 01:04:31 Oh, great. All three of you. I want to say, I apologize for not doing the work I should have done in advance of this episode. I thought I was bringing a fun idea to us and what I brought was a problem and a slowdown and a turning over of the sign to zero days since a three-year blunder and I apologize to each and every one of you and if you're a new listener
Starting point is 01:04:54 and if you're somebody who's discovering this podcast long after we've stopped doing it and you're like, why never listen to that? Should I listen to that? And somebody said yeah and yes, the show where someone apologizes for a long time. Yeah, yeah, do, yeah, listen. Do whatever the fuck you want. I mean, I don't care
Starting point is 01:05:10 if you listen, sure. If that applies to you, I'm not sorry. Wow. Because these other people they were there when it happened and you fuck you the future whoa fuck everybody in the future fuck everyone in the future yes meaning anyone who's born in the future or just everyone who exists in there now whoa what about dead people yeah fuck them they're all the past though they're dead in the future do you see them do i see dead people yeah do i do i see dead people i see dead people Do you?
Starting point is 01:05:45 A very different movie with a question mark at the end of that. Do I see dead people? That's a game we could play. Seeing dead people? Wrong inflection? Wrong inflection.
Starting point is 01:05:53 Okay. How do we play it, Paul? And who is it submitted by? You think of, it's submitted by me right now. Okay. You think of famous quotes from movies. Okay. And you try to change the inflection
Starting point is 01:06:05 to give it a different meaning if possible. Okay. Now, we could do it where we toss one out to each other. Okay. And you say, with this inflection. Okay. You want to try that? Sure.
Starting point is 01:06:16 You've submitted it. I'll try whatever you want me to. Hey, thank you. I'm your little bitch. I'll do anything you ordered me to do, daddy. Like a famous line such as... How about here's looking at you, kid? Yes, exactly.
