Episode Date: June 24, 2023

On this epsiode we talk More Meetups, King of Whittier, Tech News, Food News & More!

What's new, what's new with Menace? What's up everybody and welcome to another edition of What's New Pod. I'm Menace, I'm joined by Gortz, aka Brett. He's an audio expert and syndication expert with the Woody Showmore Show that you can hear across the United States and around the world on AFN. Hello. We are joined by Eric and Randy who both work for the podcasting network known as the NFL. They're also coming to us live from Downey, California.

Not joining us today would be Tyler, who usually comes from Whittier, California. But filling in for Tyler would be Julianne, everybody. Hey! Hello! You know, here's the deal. Tyler hit me up this week in the middle of the week and he says hey menace can you hook me up to go on the wb studio tour and i was like tyler i got you he's like yeah i have some friends in town you know he talked about on the last podcast that he's gonna have some friends in town i go tyler all you need to do is send me the full names of who you're going with and tell

me the time and he goes i want to go on friday at noon i go all right cool so i handle everything for him hook him up and then immediately after i hook him up with everything he goes i can't do the podcast i go sounds like tyler i go okay that's pretty interesting because you know we usually wrap up around maybe 11 20 so that gives you about 40 minutes you know he could have planned and been here in person yeah and then walked right behind the building where the wb studio tour is and would have had plenty of time but he decided not to do that and Julianne thank you for being here today you're welcome I came from Covina so he can get his butt over here for real and then here's so true he's probably like five feet away

from you guys I know no he's literally he's literally probably right behind the building right now not doing the podcast with us by the way the names you know i got to see the names of who i'm putting on the list two female names two female names interesting i don't know i don't know i hate hearing about his love life because it makes me so uncomfortable when i do the things he does. He's like, oh, yeah, she's got this and that or she's this and that. I'm like, dude, please stop telling me these things. I don't know what the situation is, but I know that he is going to the Dodgers game versus the Houston Astros as well.

He's on a whirlwind tour. We had the big talk about it last week, and we gave him the whole talk about what to do, what not to do. Obviously, it's all in good fun. The problem is more like me and Eric are going to get some texts. If the Dodgers start losing, which I hope they don't, it's going to be him being a smartass and saying things and just us not having the patience for it. He's already on this wave of the Angels are the new team

and the Dodgers are on the decline. And then the Dodgers swept the Angels in Anaheim and he was quiet. And he was like, oh, the umpires, the umpires were swinging in the Dodgers' favor. It's like, okay, Tyler. Yeah, but you know he's totally gonna be like, look, guys, I come through.

H-Town representing because I'm here. We're manifesting it. I'm like, dude, I'm not there. Stop trying to big dick your... Shut the hell up. Maybe, just maybe, he was like, look, look, look, look. I don't want to walk from the station to WB. Because that's far.

Because I'm going to be a sweaty mess by then. And I got two ladies, okay? It's not far, people. Get on Google. I heart radio Burbank WB studio tour. For Tyler, from the studio to the bathroom is far. That's like four lanes of traffic.

And how much you want to make a bet? He's going to act like he paid for these tickets. Oh, yeah. He may not say that he paid for it, but he's definitely going to be like, oh, he got pool or something. Yeah, I got pool, man. Yeah, you don't need to pay for it. I got you.

Run a list. Yes. Oh, that's what I said. Also, I go, Tyler, like some people are going to be there to welcome you in. Like, be talkative. You know how he is. Sometimes he meets people and he's like dead silent. It's cute because after all this time randy still won't admit that

him and tyler are besties i know tyler is randy is tyler's confidant for everything like they're the safari boys i know does tyler talk to us about any of his lady stuff no but randy's like radio i can assure you all the conversations we have about that stuff are done either when i see him at like events with all of us around or when we're playing Xbox. Yeah. And that is just and occasionally it'll get a visceral reaction on me. I'm like, did you see what he just said? Or like, what did this dickhead just say?

It's always fun talking to Tyler. Besties. Yeah. Well, you brought up events and Brett and I have been on a whirlwind tour all over Los Angeles, Orange County. We'll be in the IE. And we have been hitting up Shakey's with Pepsi Zero Sugar. And I just want to thank all the listeners that have come out to Pico Rivera. They came out to Covina.

They came out to Torrance. Next week, we're going to be in Fontana on the 27th from 47 at Shakey's. And you better come out, Fontana, because you've been begging us. We have never done an event in Fontana at all in the past nine years that we've been broadcasting. So here's your chance. Four to seven, Shakey's on Tuesday.

Come hang out. And then on Wednesday, we're going to be in the 909 Rancho Cucamonga. Come hang out with us at Shakey's from 4 to 7. Now, Pico Rivera, guys. Tyler did show up to Pico Rivera and hung out with us because he said that was his childhood Shakey's. Oh, my God.

And, guys, you missed out. There was chanting, heavy T. No. Heavy T. Yes. Heavy T. Heavy T. From the workers?

Yeah. From all the listeners. The listeners. They're like the listeners like we remember tyler he was loving it oh my god and we started calling him the king of whittier yep and oh dude he was this is the problem with what we do sometimes because we do it jokingly but in his mind he's like i am the king okay i know i got a crown well his piece of the tattoo was as famous as he was at the event everybody wanted to see the pizza tattoo that tyler had and again a lot of people listen to this podcast that were out at the event and they all wanted to take pictures with tyler and he loved it now here's the weird thing now julianne you uh please chime in on this of course so the event is over, and there's still a couple people hanging out in the parking lot.

And Brett and I, we have to pack up. We got to get home. Got to go to bed. And Tyler goes, I'm going to hang back here for a little bit. No. And I'm like, he's talking to somebody. He's going to meet up with somebody and hook up or something. You think one of the people that were there to see you and Brett?

Yeah. Stayed behind to see you. Because he always does that weird thing. He did that at Coachella, right, guys? Where he was like, hey, guys, I'll catch up with you later. And then he shows up three hours later to the house. So I'm thinking that he hung out with somebody after the event. Maybe he invited a girl,

didn't tell you guys, and he invited her so that she could see. She could see that, oh, everybody wants to take pictures with me. That actually sounds like the most probable thing.

I know, right? That's a total Tyler move. He invites someone to be like, check this all out. Right. And then he stayed back because he was taking her on a date to Shakey's. But Tyler

okay somebody came up to me and said dude it was listener Frankie Juan Kenobi. Shout out to Frankie Juan Kenobi. Awesome listener of the We Show and What's New Pod. He tapped me and said yo dude Tyler's doing the move. I'm like what move? He's awkwardly staring at those girls over there. What girl?

That's such a terrible rap to have. He points to two ladies, and every single time that they would look up, he would quickly go back out to his phone. So he didn't look like he was staring at them. He's like one of those guys at the club in Vegas where they're in the dark corner staring at all the girls. Did you not hear about that? That's happened in Vegas when they were at the pool of Circa, right? Yeah.

I think you guys did talk about it, and I did hear. Yeah. I think I may have been here when you guys were hear about that? That's happened in Vegas when they were at the pool of Circa, right? Yeah. I think you guys did talk about it and I did hear. Yeah. I think I may have been here when you guys were talking about that. Yeah. It was awful. Imagine that staring you in the face, Joanne. No, I'm gross. Do you know when you go to the zoo and there's signs that say, please do not feed the elephants

and stuff? The reason why that's there is because people go and they throw stuff at the elephants and then the zookeepers have to deal with these elephants that are accustomed to getting stuff thrown at them. You guys are throwing hot dogs and peanuts at this Tyler exhibit, and Eric and I are going to have to be the ones to deal with this crap. Yeah, we're going to have to be popping it up because he's going to come back and be like, dude, you did all this stuff, and they're talking about me, they're chanting my name. The first step, what it's going to end up being, what it always ends up being, the first step

is he's going to update his name on some sort of social media. Then he'll update his profile picture on Xbox to something. For a while he was using this image of Bugs Bunny with a crown on his head.

I'm sure that'll make some sense. It's a slippery slope. This. It's a slippery slope. This is the way I have to fight the insanity, though, guys, because, look, you weren't at the event. You weren't there dealing with Tyler. I got a history lesson of Tyler in the cities of Pico Rivera and Whittier, and it was in detail. Yeah, I know.

If you guys would care now, we'd deal with him every single day. Yeah. Anyways, well well much more fun than all that eric was out in hawaii that's why he wasn't here last week and eric how much you just want to live in hawaii now oh dude you know it's i told a couple different people this like leaving vacations are is always a drag you know coming back to work leaving wherever you're saving staying even if it's a short one even if it's not too far we're just getting out you know totally not having to deal with work but leaving hawaii almost six days on your honeymoon it's just a different level i know

my god now but it was awesome oh my god you were on the big island which i've never been to and i'm fascinated by it now i'll share where you stayed at you stayed at the hilton and that is the only place i ever hear about on the big island like it is the ish dude they have dolphins swimming in waist high water with you how epic was it was it everything that everyone says it was this resort was awesome like that's kind of what we were going for we didn't really do the whole adventure thing because we just kind of wanted to kick our feet up we maximize our time and the resort had everything you wanted like you said it housed 14 dolphins like it had a lagoon oh my god that like led out from ocean so the ocean like spills into the resort and they just let these dolphins out and

then you can yeah you can pay little exhibits with them sea turtles swimming all over the place when you're in the lagoon area it has a tram like there's three huge ass towers like the resort's so big you can like walk it of course you know me and we walked there's a tram. There's three huge-ass towers. The resort's so big. You can walk it, of course. Me and Leanne, we walked. There's a tram to take you if you want to just take it in. There's boat rides through it. The food was amazing. I had so much poke in the span of four or five days.

Sounds like a nice. I did this Legends of Luau kind of dinner and a show thing. They come out, fire dance while you're eating and stuff. Nice. It was all-you-can-eat, all-you-can-drink. It's the only time I've ever been through a food line where they have you know those like big tin salad bowls yeah yeah it was like literally scoop out your own whatever you want buffet style ahi tuna i took a mountain of tuna to my table like three times it was so good the place is like 30 minutes

from kona so it was Kona beer everywhere. Nice. I was drinking IPAs all week. One life on Kona beer. Oh, dude, it was a blast. Sunsets, ocean, you know, beer, drinks. Couldn't ask for a better one. Nice.

Were you guys practicing on making babies? We were doing more than practicing. Yeah? So you think Leanne's going to be knocked up here soon? No, no, not quite. Oh, dang it. Wasn't her time. So we're just going for dad bod mode, not actually dad just yet.

I haven't been to the gym in two and a half weeks. Oh, wow. Welcome to the club. Tyler. We're on two and a half years. Tyler number two over there. We've tried to get back this whole week. So we've been back this weekend, and it's just. We wake up at the normal time and we're like,

nah, not today. Eric, after Hawaii, what are you going to do this weekend? We brought up the honeymoon and all that stuff. Now we have two baby showers to go to this weekend. Something's in the air.

They're teasing us with this, man. Come on. What's up with everybody else? What's going on this weekend? Anything? No. No? No, but you know what?

I went to that Claremont Beer Walk last week. And we had that. Was it lit? It was lit. It was so much fun. And towards the end of the night, I knew I was getting boozy. And Kevin tells my friend he's like dude don't tell

Julianne that you're having people go back to your house because she is done and I'm like I kept going up to my friend let's go to your house he's like oh you know what I don't think we're going to do anything and so I was all disappointed and the next day I find out it was this big huge secret don't tell Julianne

because she's too drunk. Oh, yeah. That's why I get annoyed, too. I love you, Julianne. But Julianne is like the queen of like, we've been drinking all day. It's perfect time just to go home and end the day. Yeah. Let's go to a house and keep on drinking.

And then Spicy Nacho will be like, yeah. And I'm like, no. And then I get in an argument with her. I'm like, no. And then I get in an argument with her. I'm like, no. We're going home. And then she tells me the next day, oh, thanks for making me go home. Yeah. Yeah.

But it's an argument in the moment, you know. But this weekend, I'm going to go see No Hard Feelings, that movie. Oh, rad. The J-Law movie. Yeah. I think, I don't know. That's pretty much the only plans I have. Yeah.

I was thinking about going. There's this really cool event over at the LA Fairgrounds, and it's called Cheers. Oh, yeah, yeah. You heard of it? Actually, a listener told me at one of our Shakey's events that he dropped off his wife to be one of the judges at the event. What is it? It's a wine, beer, and spirits festival. Oh, another drinking festival.

Yeah. I know there beer, and spirits festival. Oh, another drinking festival. Yeah. I know there's like a food festival. There's food there too. It's like smoked food. Oh, okay. I heard there was one like at the Rose Bowl or something like that. I don't know. I was thinking of maybe going to that one, but I'm like, I don't know if I want to go

to a food festival and there's like a bunch of lines. I'm like, I'm just going to stick to the movie stuff. I think you should go try out Cheers at least one year. It's so much fun. And like I said, it's not just wine. You can have beer and there's alcohol there. It's legit. I was going to say this whole talk about Julianne

reminds me of that meme I would see about how everyone has that one friend at the end of the night at 2 a.m. who's like, alright, so where are we going next? It's like, what do you mean where we're going next we're going home yeah that's that's randy uh at our last time we hung out when he was already buzzed i'm buzzed guys i'm drugged let's let's go get no drink uh well mess you know what i'm doing searching for a new apartment oh yes brett finally he's done with all the drama. I have to escape my apartment. It's slowly going to crap. I love my apartment.

It was like the perfect spot, perfect place. Like, we were high up, no really adjoining neighbors. Like, nice view, trees, everything. Everything was cool. But the building got sold. And it's slowly been getting worse. And I've had pipe problems, leak problems, water problems. Yeah, that's happened to me.

Crappy managers. When the building gets sold, you're in an awesome place. I've had pipe problems, leak problems, water problems. Yeah, that's happened to me. Crappy managers. When the building gets sold, you're in an awesome place. That was the first place I ever moved to in Los Angeles. That happened to me. Awesome place, gets sold, and then it starts going to crap. But the big issue is twice now people keep on stealing pipes. Yeah.

What? And then no water. They've stolen the main water pipe to my building twice in six months. Is it copper? Yeah. Yeah. So they put a gate on it, right? Apparently not a good enough gate because they cut through that.

They stole it again. And then I'm downstairs talking to the police about it because I can't wake the manager up. Manager doesn't answer his phone. No. He doesn't come outside. So I'm outside looking like I do on the phone with the police going, hey, when they roll up, can you just make sure that they know I'm the long-haired guy with some dreadlocks and tattoos? I may look like the guy that stole the pipe, but I'm not. I didn't do it.

I'm upset about this right now. Yeah, so I'm looking for new places, guys. So if anyone hears of anything that is pet-friendly, not too expensive in certain Burbank-y areas. You got to tell me about that thing for that one place. Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah, yeah god yeah yeah so okay place we were at didn't even want us to have a betta fish they're like no no pets so we have to be like super like on it about this right so my wife shasta cole is looking up all these different places to find houses and everything she's like hey i think i found one encino area looks freaking dope oh wait hold on

it has this note about pets uh dogs allowed cats allowed small animals allowed restrictions sorry no pitbulls no mastiffs no monkeys and no snakes sounds all right what happened in this apartment building that they have no monkeys and no snakes. No monkeys. Sounds about right. What happened in this apartment building? They have no monkeys. And no snakes. Like, were they having monkey snake fights?

Monkeys are very illegal anyways. And did you call it a mastiff? Yeah, mastiff. Mastiff? Bull mastiff. Whatever, same thing. Mastiff. Same thing.

It's always fun too because then you see stuff like it'll randomly on the news on like KTLA or something. It'll be like, man busted with two tigers living in his backyard in Reseda. And it's like, what the hell? Well, that's soon to be Eric

because obviously he brought a dolphin home with him. Yeah, of course. A dolphin, a sea turtle. All those, what do you think is going to happen to all those sea turtle eggs he smuggled back? They're going to hatch eventually. On the way home from Temecula,

you see zebras in people's backyards. Have you guys seen those? In the Inland Empire, similar to what happened in Catalina Island, they brought a bunch of animals out there to film westerns. In this case, it was donkeys. And they just left them there.

So now there's parts of the Inland Empire where there's just large populations of donkeys that just roam around. Well, when we were in Pico at the Shakeys and we were leaving, remember that large amount of parrots that started flying over? Oh, yeah, there's parrots

everywhere but these weren't like san gabriel valley these weren't like parakeets they were just giant ass parrots giant green parrots yeah yeah they're all over laverne sandimas covina yeah they're beautiful like i was at my mom's over the weekend before the honeymoon we were barbecuing and same thing a giant like probably 16 parrots just kind of flew around and then they just disappeared and my mom's like Eric they're all she was telling me like she just finally got somebody to witness aliens with her I was trying to record them and then they're gone

you saw them right you saw them we did read in the news though like yeah parrots are just taking over Los Angeles all over the place what the hell there's the idea that they came from the bush gardens thing in van nuys there's the there's a rumor that like a pet store burned down and those parents just like multiplied crazy where do you get your information be quiet i like no one knows no one knows where they came from discord i like that randy's a

conspiracy theorist on this one they were released by the government for surveillance. Do you guys want some food news? Yes. Alright, I know we have to do at least once a pod. We talk about Japan. We had people come out to Torrance and they just landed from Japan

and they came to meet up with us at Shakey's. So we were talking about there, but I saw this pop up in my feed. It's a new restaurant that is brought to you by Capcom. Yes! Now, if you don't know Capcom, they are the people that brought you Street Fighter and... Mega Man.

Oh, yeah. Castlevania, Devil May Cry, Resident Evil. Yes. Tons of amazing franchises. So it's all food related to their video games yeah like i went to the pokemon cafe when i was in japan it was absolutely awesome if you want to do that make sure you make reservations way ahead of time for the pokemon cafe i did not read up on the capcom restaurant but i did read up on the netflix restaurant that is available in Los Angeles on Fairfax. It's called Netflix

Bites. And you have to make a reservation. I tried to make a reservation and it is July 13th is the one that's the soonest that you could get. And you have to pay 25 bucks per person when you make a reservation, just so they know you're actually going to show up. Wow. Are you all in or all out? All in. Are us for the netflix you want to go yes sign me up i didn't do it because the 25 buck thing i just don't get why i'm going to something sponsored by netflix for food well no because they have all the food shows and then they'll have the the chefs make different items for you to check out.

Okay, I guess there's that connection. Because I was like, okay, what are we doing? I'm looking up. Oh, you just go eat. I'm like, you're not watching a movie? No, no. But I guess there is the food connection. Okay, I'll take that.

That makes sense. I retract my statement. Eric, you know that they're all cosplayed up as your favorite Netflix characters. Just like the Capcom one. To be honest, dude, I couldn't name two Netflix shows. I don't. Really? You? You? Oh, I guess you. Okay, well, dude, I couldn't name two Netflix shows. I don't. Really? You.

You. Oh, I guess you. Okay. Well, now that you're saying them. The Witcher. Yeah, The Witcher. That's a good one. Stranger Things.

Stranger Things. Okay, there you go. Again, I retract my statement. Pokemon Master Journeys. Brought to you by Netflix. All right, Eric's back in. Oh, see, every one of those shows hasn't been on in like months. I haven't touched Netflix

in probably since you, the first half. Yeah, he's in sports mode. Well, funny you should say that. Quick tangent, back to food news right after this, but today,

the final part of Pokemon Journeys comes out. The final part of Ash's mission to become Pokemon Master is on Netflix. Today.

What? So if you want to see Ash's final episodes and become the Pokemon Master is on Netflix today. What? So if you want to see Ash's final episodes and become the Pokemon Master, Netflix. I do, I do. About time. Are you guys all in or all out? We have brought this up on the pod before.

It has been brought up on the Woody Show as well. It is officially here. Upside Foods, lab-grown meats, all in or all out, approved by the FDA. All in, brother. There's plenty of real meat out there for me to eat. Yeah.

Now, here's the thing. Eventually, it's going to be a thing. And they said it's weird because the first place that they're going to launch it is high-end restaurants to make it available for the public. I go, okay, that's weird. No one's going to pay that much money in a high-end restaurant. I think within probably the next five years, there's going to be lab-grown meat in your nuggets somewhere, and you're just not even going to know it. Then that's okay.

That's okay. But I don't want to go to Morton's and pay all this money for this steak, and then it's not even real yeah you know i wonder i wonder if that'll be a thing like an ethical thing where like they don't disclose that the meat isn't lab grown because it's cheaper for them or something somebody will get sued for it eventually yeah i'm sure i'm sure it'll happen but that being said i'm totally down i'd give like funny names i'd be like oh tonight we're serving out a goblin meat or gremlin meat because it's like it's like It's like Actual cells from

Chickens and cows And stuff like that It's not portrayed as fake Entirely it's like they're growing it in a lab It's cloned And what's the meat really in a McNugget Yeah Most of your fast food has a bunch of

Soy in it already So is it gonna be Are they going to try to tap into that? Are they going to charge a crazy amount because it's like, ooh, eat this big cloney? No, I just don't know what the game plan is by doing that. Honestly, I think it should just go to a really affordable market. Again, just make it into nuggets somewhere and just have people try and say okay tastes good who cares yeah because it's still at the end of the day it does come from real chickens and they say by doing this you cut down on farms cut down on slaughterhouses you cut down on all

the gas that the cows are killing the ozone layer with so i don't know we'll see how it is i'm willing to try it. I mean, I'm down for the less slaughterhouses and all that stuff, obviously. I mean, I'm not... Brett, is this a loophole to vegetarian? No. We had a lot of money show to talk about this, and Brett, feel free to do your spiel.

Yeah, I'm still not down with it because where'd they get the cells in the first place that they created these from? They're still taking it from animals. They're still doing things to animals to get these. I'm still out. Sign me up. I'm still out.

Sorry, Eric. I was genuinely curious. I'm like, is this the loophole for somebody to be like, well, you know, technically we never won. I could hear the hope in his voice. He's like, we almost got it back. We almost threw on a lab-grown steak on the grill for him. Gotta take it back. It's okay. for randy oh we gotta brother see this is where you're missing out on

randy and i know you love free stuff today we got a package from grillo's pickles proud sponsor shout out to grillo's pickles yes love their story how they just you know decided to start this business out of an apartment, one little stand, and now, boom, across the country and all available in all your grocery stores. Check out Grillo's Pickles. Did you pick up the spicy ones or did Caroline pick up the spicy ones? Caroline picked up the spicy spears. I picked up the sliced sweet and spicy.

I love the slice. It's easy just to throw on a sandwich real quick. Yeah. Very snackable. Shout out to Grillo's Pickles. Again, Grillo's Pickles in your refrigerator section. Pickle de gallo? Yes, the pickle de gallo. Mr. Greg Gorey took that with him today. Okay. It actually looks very, very delicious. All of them look delicious and they all taste good. I've had most of their variety. I have not tried the sweet and spicy slices yet. The pickle they got, I've had a little bit of. Very, very good.

And if you're wondering where your refrigerator section is, obviously it's next to the cheeses. It's next to your meat products. All that stuff is right there. Yeah, so pick it up. Again, just go to your local store. They're not the stuff that's going to be on the shelf for months on end. Sirens running by. Yeah, from two microphones. stuff that's gonna be on the shelf for months on end we're in the direct path

of like the fire department and one of the fire stations here in town they messed up the electrical wiring so it's unusable so they're housing two fire departments in one station so it's like the parents Oh my gosh. How do you know this? What message boards do you want? Just like the parents. 15 feet away from you and you have so much more information on the city than me. Well, it's a chain of command because Gio was like,

oh, I signed up on Facebook positively downy, which is like the way what's going on in the neighborhood. So I was like, every city now has their own Instagram. Even like the ring. God dang. I heard a loud noise.

It didn't sound like a firework. Shut the hell up. My mom is so... I had no idea how bad it was. She basically lives on next door. She should get off that. She's like, Randy, look. There's a Yorkie lost three blocks away.

My dad would be like, there's a bike thatie lost three blocks away. My dad would be like, okay. There's a bike that was stolen three miles away. Did you see the – there was a tweet that went – no, it was a TikTok that went viral of this one guy. So the Citizen app, I'm sure you guys know what the app is, but the app is basically to – it keeps you aware of what's going on around you. Like when crimes are going on, like there's a fire, there's an arrest or something, it'll pop up and it'll tell you. And the app will sometimes ask you if you could go to the scene of whatever's going

on and videotape it for the app. Oh, nice. And this guy got a notification. It was like, deranged man with knife running in and out of traffic. And the app was like, can you go record? No. He's like, no, I cannot go record. Go do it. This is howman starts right here

all right you guys want some tech news since we're talking tech stuff yeah tech news all in or all out mark zuckerberg versus elon musk in a cage match yes i saw that you know i thought it was fake it's real real. Yeah, they're talking back and forth. Now, here's the thing. Mark Zuckerberg actually trains for jujitsu. So he can actually fight. No, he does. Because my friend goes to the tournaments that Mark fights at. Oh.

And yeah, I was like, I'm in. But some people are like, oh, it'll be a quick fight. You know, whatever. So what? Even if it was like 10 seconds who cares let's check it out i thought for sure i'm all for celebrities punching each other yes yeah i am i am too billionaires fighting each other sounds like a great time it does i don't care how long the fight last i thought that mark was like too like this little dweeby skinny guy like i thought

not like elon musk is like this manly man but i just thought for sure if this is real i think elon musk would take him but i hear that elon like trains as well oh okay i have never seen any of his stuff but i know mark is up in the bay area like crushing fools so we'll see zuck dog is in the trenches like he's going to these like public public tournaments he's in those public tournaments where everyone can see him and he's throwing down. He's legit. They should be oiled up. And he's streaming on Facebook and

on Twitter. Everybody wins. Yes. Be awesome. I need some barbed wire and some steel chairs and stuff thrown in for this, but yeah, I'm down to watch it. It'd be like WWFC, whatever they call it these days yeah exactly exactly yeah ufcw i'm in i'm telling you i'm in now randy you are into scamming amazon

did you see that amazon prime day has been announced 2023 you might see some mistakes on there so you can get a couple extra items july 11th and 12th i've never bought anything on amazon prime day have you guys uh i hear people get deals nothing special but i'm hoping randy gets some good deals again because he got me some diapers last time uh all right well if you come up don't send us a link just buy us the item and then we'll pay you back every time he sends a link check Just buy us the item and then we'll pay you back. Every time he sends us a link, check this out. Sold out. Should we get ahead of this though?

Is there anything you would want off Amazon that he should just look for now? He could get it and then we Venmo him afterwards. What's an item off the top of your head that you'd like? If you see something, grab it. I know. I want a dual instant pot and fryer. Menace, is there anything? Because last year you were looking for something. Yeah, I'm trying to think this year what would I know. I want a dual instant pot and fryer. Menace, is there anything? Because last year you were looking for something. Yeah, I'm trying

to think this year what would I want. Probably any Dyson hair dryers. Oh yeah, the Dyson blow dryer. That would be a hot item. Randy, you could probably flip those. Shave one off for me. Get me one of those bad boys. Yeah, you could flip the heck out of those.

I will accept any decent nintendo switch game okay eric see i don't usually have to give randy a list because he just buys in bulk and then i open my door and stuff ends up on my step it's like last time it was like a couple balls of ketchup i just get the over i get the overstock stuff that he just doesn't want to sell well eric eric does this thing where he inadvertently like kind of shames me without like he'll send me videos or photos of like the boxes in front of my door as you should i feel really bad i feel bad for the amazon driver which then just manifests itself in me just giving eric stuff hey man and look at all the boxes and think like how am i getting these in my apartment yeah Yeah, and now before anybody gets any ideas, he looks for deals on Amazon to buy that were mismarked.

I know I jumped around about scamming. Just FYI. I'm sure everyone will take it exactly that way. I have people message me sometimes too. What's crazy is I have people hit me up about stuff. And for a lot of them, it makes sense. They're like, hey, do you know where I can get this? Do you know where I can get that?

In some cases, I try to help, but it's kind of hard because sometimes it's the things they want. You just can't really find them for sale. But I've had people hit me up. They'd be like, hey, Randy, I've heard you've been talking about how you get stuff and this and that. I was wondering, could you find a way to get me Taylor Swift tickets? Who do you think I am? Yeah, true. I swear to God, I had someone hit me up and be like, can you get me Swift tickets?

I'm like, no, I can't do that. No. Just a little bit more tech news. E3, the big gaming convention, apparently is off the books until 2025 maybe it might happen in 2025 has e3 just like gone away no one cares about it anymore because all the other companies just have their own events now right nintendo just did a nintendo direct they do it like what every couple months and they say yeah here's the top games we have coming out here's all of our announcements you can talk about it on social media,

get as many reposts, shares, everything we want, and we don't have to pay to be a part of this giant event. Now, I see that kind of happening to Comic-Con, right? Because Disney pretty much has their own event now called D23, which is just almost as big as Comic-Con, if you think about it on the announcements and everything there so they're they're holding on to their stuff and not really putting it into comic-con as they used to now let's say dc starts their own event like they can capitalize that and do huge things and what's gonna suck is comic-con might be kind of mid this year because of all

the strikes happening, actor strikes, writer strikes. So people are not even showing up to the panels that they would have. They actually might have to go there for comic books, Brett. I was going to say, this actually might be a great thing that happens. You know, it would make sense if DC Warner Discovery goes, you know what, Disney, D23, let's have our own showcase for all of our products because you're right star wars will hold off everything for either star wars celebration or d23 they don't want to announce a comic con marvel they're like we're holding out for d23

it'd be smart for them to do that and you know what it gets all these damn overpriced hollywood nonsense out of my comic con you actually can go there and buy toys and comics like a man was supposed to damn it yeah That's what I need. You're slowly being weeded out. All the posers, right? Oh my god, I can actually get into an event. I could get into the Detective Pikachu event this time. Not freaking social

media people that are like, oh, I need to post about this so I can be rich and famous. I'm like, I just want to see a stuffed Pikachu that was on freaking movies. Come on. I'm happy you're not mad about it. No, I'm stoked it i am so stoked i i do think it would it would do the studio some good to sort of lean more into having these things again because these sort of conventions and then really leaning into it full like a full steam ahead is good for is good for the industry and it's good for the the fans and stuff like right

now marvel's kind of taking a hit people aren't really liking the product they're putting out. They think it's starting to decline. The Flash wasn't as big as it was supposed to be either. Yeah. Pixar is getting a hit too. They laid off a bunch of people. The fatigue, man. Yeah, man.

It's stuff like this that gets people going, and it's like everything all at once. It gets you excited, and it's just kind of what brings people together. So I'm hoping that things kind of change, but, I mean, who knows? Cost reasons, the strike. You know what keeps on winning, though? Football, guys.

Oh, yeah. How many days, Eric? 76. Why did Randy sign it? Is he like, oh, 76 days. I have to work harder. Hey, hey dude is basketball on the decline dude because i was listening to some experts on this kind of stuff and they said that michael jordan getting out is kind of a big sign that basketball is on the decline because it's at its height

and this is going to be the last hurrah on the big TV rights, but people are just not watching as much. And that's why Jordan's going to get out because this is the last big payday on owning a team. I heard some whispers also that the Golden State Warriors, that all the minority team owners want to get out as well because again the tv writes this is the last big hurrah on it do you agree or disagree that nba is kind of going to be like third fourth tier and other things are going to take over i think there's a shift going like on how they pay players and jordan might just be getting out he's like you know i'm not giving any more money to the charlotte hornets yeah the experts say also just too many games for people to pay attention to,

which is weird to me because baseball has like five trillion games, you know? And they have 82. Hockey has 82, you know, ball way less, baseball way more. And it's like they're dealing with stars not playing. So people aren't really going. He owned a team that was like, you know, a bottom tier team anyway. So it's like if you don't have the Lakers in town, the Warriors in town, your stadium is like half empty.

You're not making the playoffs. So he's probably not making he's probably losing money on this place anyways. One thing that they did bring up as well is like all these star players are just like jumping from team to team to team. And people can't like really get into it. It's not like lock in, you know, like the Bulls back in the day where you had a solid team for a number of years. Now, like all the star players are just playing one season and then hopping to

another team. That's what I was going to say. I was going to say, do you think it's because they don't have people who are staying for a long time? Like, you know, Michael Jordan and Colby Bryant.

Like there's, there's not those like key players that everyone just loves and adores. They're just not there anymore. And maybe that's why. I mean, they're there, but it's just like, oh, what team are they on this week? Right, exactly. So I don't know. That's my thinking.

Yeah, I mean, basketball is probably the sport I watch the least as far as pro sports. Like hockey, baseball, football, all that. Soccer, all that goes before basketball. Yeah basketball yeah well we'll see how it plays out i i didn't even know that the draft was on last night i go is this a pre-recording because we had an event and i walked by the bar at shaky's and the draft was on i was like how come i heard nothing about how the draft was happening that day yeah yeah it's just like people weren't buzzing about it. It was weird. All right.

You guys want to talk real quick about some scammers? My grandmother got called again. Again? By a scammer. And luckily, my grandmother's way with it. So she didn't fall for it. She was just having fun with it. What was it this time?

But the scam was that I was driving. I hit a pregnant woman on the street and somehow i i hit my my nose in an airbag and i was okay but i couldn't talk on the phone but you know i'm gonna be in big trouble if i don't pay off this pregnant lady so my grandmother needs to go to the bank and put the money in a box and then mail this box to a certain address that's like full blown scam like they were saying like using you like your yeah so your actual that's the thing okay so people are not aware now this is the second time this has happened to my grandmother the first time i was just straight up in a car accident but what happens is there's all these

websites you know how you look somebody up and you see their address but there's websites that also show their age so they'll just look up the oldest person and then they'll look at their relatives and they go okay they can see that this person is a grandson of the oldest person so then they already have these people's number and then they just they just start calling the old people one after another with all these fake stories. Unfortunately, old people fall for it all the time. And people will show up to to the old people's house to pick up the money or the wire. It sucks.

It sucks. You know, someone my grandma just told me a story that they try to scam her. They asked her. They said, you know, we appreciate the donation you gave us for. I think it was like the Red Cross. And we'd like to know if you'd like to donate again and my grandma was like sure just send me a an envelope and i'll put the check in there and send it back they're like no no no we need your credit card my grandma said no give me send me you know a b and c and i'll send it back and nope so my grandma's like okay scamming me. She didn't fall for it, thank God.

American Cross just called me the other day and I kid you not, Menace, I thought it was you calling to scam me again and I wasn't sure how to react. So I listened to this lady's spiel. She asked me if I was Mr. Daniel Chan and I said, yeah, I am. And then they're like, okay, doctor, well, you know,

we see here that you've donated $10,000 and we just want to say, oh no, $1,500. And we just want to say thank you so much for that. And we want to know if you'd like to donate even more money. And I said, I sure would love to. They said, oh, great. How much would you like to donate? And I said, I'd like to donate ten thousand dollars this time and the lady's like oh great go ahead and give us your information i said you know what i'll give you my information after you get a mother effing job you stupid little and and i was like go find somebody else get a job and i hung up on them and then i sat by my phone and i waited for my phone to ring because i was like if this is menace I swear to god

I'm gonna kill him no it was actually the Red Cross and they were just kind of a bad person yeah you were on recorded blind alright guys well I gotta wrap this up because Brett and I are dead tired this is the schedule that we did for the past three days so we got up

super early around you know 2am did the show all the way till 10 a.m., got home, slept for two hours, did like some stuff around the house and then met back up at 2 p.m. And we went off and did our events and then didn't get home until like after 8 p.m. and then did it all over again, multiple times.

all right now randy anything to say before we leave thank you for reminding me that i'm turning um ancient 27 next week i feel i'm feeling a little old you're washed but that I'm turning 27 next week. I feel a little old. You're washed. But I'm washed. Yeah. That's what I got to say. I'm washed. I'm officially washed now.

So that's it. All right. Eric, take your vacation time. Do it. Wise words. Get out of town. Unplug. Yes.

This is the best week of my life. Yeah. Going on vacation soon. Here. Where are you going now? You always go everywhere. Well, I'm on the Woody Show's vacation. Woody Show July 4th vacation coming up starting next Friday.

That's right. When you're out of town, dude, it was so nice. I do have something to say, which is a revelation I had yesterday. When looking at how to do with the vacation thing, be more on top of your finances so that you financially have the freedom to take vacations. This is a year where some of my foolish financial endeavors have prevented me from taking a vacation. Oh, just this year? Yeah.

This sounds like a familiar conversation. I will say one more thing real quick about Hawaii. It was crazy going west from Los Angeles because there's really not many places to go from LA. We always go east. We go forward in time zones. It was pretty crazy going backwards three hours and having sports on at two in the afternoon. It was pretty cool, right? It helped me maximize the trip because I'm rolling over at 6 a.m. Hawaii time because it's 9 a.m. Pacific. I was literally up for

the entire day. Watched sunrise, watched sunset. I have so much time time sports are on at two in the afternoon i know we have some listeners in hawaii you know what he shows on over there jason mr grimace what a what a crazy life like sports are on at two over by seven like wow what do i do now i felt so bad for eric because he was like he's coming back to he's coming back from hawaii which i was like that can't be easy and then the night he came back the airport like shut down because there was like a suspicious package and i was like, he's coming back from Hawaii, which I was like, that can't be easy. And then the night he came back, the airport shut down because there was a suspicious package. And I was like, oh, poor Eric. They closed down the main terminal because of a suspicious package. And it took my mom and my sister two hours to get into the terminal.

And they were on the exit. Because we landed at midnight because obviously we're going three hours forward in time on top of the six-hour flight. So I didn't get home until like two in the morning that day. Here's the thing. This is tough. Here's a pro tip, all right? I used to skimp on the way to go to the airport and on the way to get back to the airport. And I stopped doing that after having experiences like you just talked about.

Because after a long-ass trip, you don't want to deal with anything. You just want to get home, right? Yeah, right. I know it costs like a trillion dollars, but when I have like a big awesome trip like that, it's Uber Black to the airport and it's Uber Black back because I will not have any issues.

The thing was you couldn't get in. There was no cars again. They shut down the whole terminal. People were walking. The entrance was like completely out. cars again. They shut down the whole terminal. People were walking. The entrance was completely out. The main road in was blocked off. So you know, FLAX, that tunnel you come out from under the car. You message the UberX driver and say,

look, drive over the other cars. I know you're in a unique situation. You're done messed up. You're in a unique situation. There's this app where you can track planes. And Tyler and I tyler and i were on the group chat like which point do you think is eric i'm like i think this one is eric and it's like so we should be getting a text in about 20 minutes see how adorable they talk about eric eric's like oh i just saw these messages great dad's coming home i miss him i miss him all right guys well again thank you for listening podcast brett

anything else before we leave uh yeah thanks to everyone that came out to shakey's this past week all three locations thank you in advance to people that come out next week please come out again we have giveaways meso and i will be happy to hang out with everybody and congrats eric on having the best week of your life because my honeymoon was the best week of my life too thank you take your vacations yeah do that fontana i'm telling you font, you better roll out. Yeah, compared to everybody else, man, Covina came out hard. That's my city.

They came out hard. Hard. Yeah, Pico, hard. Hard. Torrance, hard. And also, what a nice breeze we had the entire time. I know. It was a pretty nice setup.

Yeah, it was dope. We had like a little grass field to hang out with everybody. Oh, nice. It was cool. It was like we're at a park just having a function. Yeah. A little box social going on. It was dope. We had like a little grass field to hang out with everybody. Oh, nice. It was cool. It was like we're at a park just having a function. Yeah. A little box social going on.
