He has an assistant, his assistant's name is Eric.
What's up?
And joining us from Houston, Texas, live would be Tyler,
a.k.a. Heavy T from the Sean Salisbury Show,
a morning sports radio show.
And here to announce, finally, Julianne from the Booker and Striker Show

The Afternoon Show.
That's awesome, right?
Being back at Alt 98.7 in Los Angeles.
Talk about full circle, right?
Crazy.
Yes.
When I was asked to come back, I was just so excited because the person who had to,
unfortunately, lay me off was the same person who asked me to come back. I was just so excited because the person who had to unfortunately lay me off was
the same person who asked me to come back. So that was just a great moment.
That's cool. Yeah. Yeah. I've been hired and fired by the same person three times. So I know
how that goes. Well, luckily I wasn't fired, but you know.
Yeah. But that's cool to have you back. look at you and tyler back at iheart radio
everybody's all together so yeah it's uh it's very exciting uh tyler did not join us last week
he had to do some extra work and randy filled in so it was nice to catch up with randy but tyler i
don't know if you heard the episode randy was talking a little smack on you and i wanted to
see how you felt about that he said that your your move to Houston was actually a downgrade compared to everybody else.
What is your thoughts on that?
How is that in any way a downgrade?
I didn't think so.
We all had your back, right?
Yeah, we did.
Yeah, I heard it.
You guys all had my back.
I was a board op back when I was with you guys.
I wanted more responsibility, and I got it over here.
I have the producer title.
I wear more hats. I have a show that i co-host on the weekend also i moved out of my house first and i did you
that's my point you don't live in a quarter of a bedroom anymore man yeah exactly i have more
space than i know what to do with even in an apartment i'm just not used to having my own
place so how is any of
this a down it's not please it's not at all it's not tyler don't forget you got your own weekend
show too yeah he said that oh you did yeah yeah it's kind of too down at his disposal
no he doesn't out here i'm living the bachelor life, dude.
We've done enough.
Jesus Christ.
Let's move along.
Shall we?
Okay.
Gross milk mamas.
Poor Tyler. He's back for three minutes.
He's getting cramped up. I just want to know that we all had your back. We didn't think it was a downgrade
at all. I think it was a major upgrade.
Just real quick, there is
a major giveaway right now
at What's New Pod on Instagram.
That's at What's New Pod on
Instagram, the Paley Fest. Now, if you don't
know what the Paley Fest is, it celebrates
television and there's going to be a bunch
of panels. We're giving away passes to
go see the Black-ish panel,
This Is Us panel, and the Cobra Kai
panel.
You know what time it is.
And you can go enter right now on our Instagram at what's new pod on
Instagram and Paley fest is just coming up next week.
So if you want in on that,
make sure you go to our Instagram at what's new pod.
Also on my Instagram at menace,
M E N A C E.
Eric went with me.
We went to go to the Dodger clubhouse. Now
there's a bunch of locations everywhere, but we went to the one at city walk Dodgers gear everywhere.
And I'm doing an Instagram giveaway with a Dodgers clubhouse. So just go to at menace
on Instagram and you can check it out there at menace M E N A C E. So when Eric and I were there,
we brought up Tyler because you know,ler works part-time at lids
and they were talking to us about stitching and we go oh we know a guy who works at liz who claims
that he is an excellent stitcher and what happened eric she called him a bitch and said the machine
does half of the work yeah okay yeah i have a friend who used to work for embroidery uh company
and embroidery and i would never see her hand stitch anything.
It would go through the damn machine.
So what are you doing, Tyler?
That's so hands on.
I'm rehanding it with like an old abuelita in the back.
I know.
We want to go back and have your back and say, well, Tyler said.
I just do my thing.
I don't pay attention to the haters.
Tyler, are you cutting the little strings off the hats that get left over?
Is that your technique?
Is that what you mean?
I mean, that's part of it.
I knew it.
He does have to select which style in the computer before the machine does it.
So that's something.
Mr. Boss Embroiderer is now like, well, I got to re-print the colors.
I got to make sure this
machine gets clean i gotta make sure everything stays in this place right exactly can't make sure
can't have anything crooked out because it don't look good oh man all right well i'm gonna move
on to some breaking news guys breaking news i'm fat as hell it is is. It's not good. I have had a terrible week of realizing how fat I am by video.
So that sucks.
By video.
You don't really realize how fat you are until video.
That's usually how it goes.
To be honest, because you're a picture.
Yeah.
Well, pictures like not 100 percent pictures all the time, because sometimes you can get
caught at a nice angle and you're like, oh, I'm not that bad.
But video, you cannot really hide anything.
So I first noticed it with the Woody's Show After Hours Takeover video.
And I go, whoa, that is not good.
Given we were eating all day, all day long.
That could cause some bloating.
You're out in the sun.
It's hot.
You're both in sweatshirts.
Yeah. Not the most
flattering attire. No, not really.
We ate multiple tables of food
and then we decided, you know what, this would be
a great time to shoot some video.
You know, maybe you could have done that first.
You know, maybe. And then
Jokoi stopped by
and I didn't know that he was bringing his camera guy
Yoda, who I absolutely love. Yoda
is like the best. He's the nicest guy. He's from Hawaiii so shout out to all the listeners in hawaii at star 1013
and he shot some video and then it was even worse because julianne my hair's not cut oh my beard is
mad patchy which my beard was i mean it's patchy in general but it was extra patchy oh and then
he got me caught on the side angle
i don't know i know the i know the video you're talking about and not only that
they're looking across the room yeah they're like mics and stuff and it's just your head
from like here up it's just fat neck fat head patchy beard terrible hair and i'm just like
i'm not having a good week and then the topper the third
part of my week of realizing how fat i am is uh one of our bosses lisa warden she was like awarded
this um this award for a music person international music person of the year so i'm taking like photos
of her on stage and all this kind of stuff. And then striker takes a picture of me taking photos.
And then there's another side angle.
God damn,
man.
I'm just getting punched left and right.
So I decided I got to start losing weight again.
I got it.
Like,
you know,
I have that Peloton.
I got to start hitting that Peloton,
uh,
every day.
But the thing is like,
I eat way less than I did before.
And it has like zero effect.
You actually might be stalling out your metabolism by eating so less.
Yeah.
Maybe.
Yeah, for sure.
Yeah.
I eat significantly less.
Significantly?
Significantly.
Significantly less.
There's a C in there you were missing.
Close enough.
So, you know, Woody was complaining about this too, how he put pounds back on.
And I put pounds back on and I warned him.
And this is where he fell off.
And this is where I've fallen off many times before is when we have those vacation breaks.
Because you're going hammer.
You're working out every day.
And then you just do a full week of just like
eating like a slob gorging just gorging non-stop and then when you come back you're like oh you
know i'm still good i'm still straight so then you start less working out and then next thing you
know you're just getting a bunch of photos and videos of how fat you are so i gotta get back on
yeah if you're not taking in enough calories,
then your body is feeding off of,
of,
I think that like the nutrients that it already has and that's not good.
And it won't burn it.
I'll store it a little bit more.
You'll start cameling.
It's storing.
So you need to make sure you have enough calories in your diet every single
day,
but eat right.
Not like,
Oh,
I'm going to have a hamburger because that has this many calories
and i'm only gonna eat once today no tyler eat good stuff yeah yeah tyler i forgot you were here
peloton bike rides dude i'm telling you that's a huge factor too because you were you're going
wild every day yeah i need to get a little bit of activity dude like it'll fall off quickly it'll
start and then you'll plateau but just some kind of activity is the way to go dude oh i've been going back outside
just to get sunlight yeah you know that helps i was uh i was reading this thing about health
and it was actually health around the penis as well dude guys we're kind of screwed because
check this out uh less light and way less sleep your penis shrinks did you know that
and the heavier you are.
Tyler's got a tiny weenie.
Hold on.
The deck is stacked against you, Tyler.
Tyler's tiny weenie.
I swear my penis used to be bigger.
I swear.
It's almost like someone telling you he changed his sleep schedule to get more amount of sleep.
Doesn't look so dumb now, does he?
Dude.
Apparently my junk is bigger than yours now, too.
See?
Michael Ween, what happened to my penis?
It's gone.
Where is it?
Well, why don't you do what Brett does?
Brett says-
Thank you.
He was texting me last night and I told him, go to bed.
He said, I don't sleep at night anymore.
I don't sleep at night.
Dog-ish.
Some people like the sun, Julianne.
I want sun. That's true.
I've also kind of
slimmed down. I'm less bloated these
days. I feel healthier,
happier. King Kong ding dong.
We're not staying up overnight.
Why not?
I don't mind the sleep schedule. I go home,
go to the gym, get my four and a half hours
every day. I'm fine every day.
You're also like 25.
I'm 30.
Whatever.
You're 30 and 110 pounds.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, I have been making it a point, though, to actually just go outside because I feel
like the only time I go outside during the week is to run errands.
So it's like leaving one building to
go into another building. So I'm not really actually getting air or sunlight, but even
though we have the crappiest air in the country. You should go on a walk to the park and sometimes
parks have those gyms attached to it. You know what I'm talking about? Those outside gyms.
So maybe if you walk over to the park that has a gym you can also get some workout done there in the sun okay here's
another thing and not to make excuses but i don't know about you guys but also going outside i have
super paranoia of all the random ass crime that's been happening across the country and i'm just
like i'm gonna get junked. Someone's going to take
my groceries. Dude, people
are getting murdered in Beverly
Hills. That's Beverly Hills. Yeah, but that's Beverly
Hills. People are targeting there. I'm going to tell you what I tell my mom.
Turn off the news, dude. Yeah, please.
The world ain't that bad, trust me.
Yeah. There's random
crimes. When was the last time you saw
someone get murdered?
When was the last time you saw someone get murdered on your street?
You're streamlining everything through the news into your brain,
so you're getting all warped and scared for no reason.
Look, dog, you always got to protect yourself.
Let me tell you, you just said...
I get that, but you got to remember the main line of the news.
If it bleeds, it leads, man.
They're just there for fear.
Tyler learned that in his news gathering class.
He also learned that for the milk mamas.
Yeah, the milk mamas yeah the milk
mamas damn tyler you're disgusting you're what the hell just happened
all right um what else is going oh uh bort wonder con is coming up anaheim nice that's uh next week
i'm really excited about that i uh i have a small place in my heart for WonderCon
because WonderCon was in San Francisco for a number of years
and I would go all the time.
I was actually back in San Francisco.
Bort, you would love this.
I was friends with like every suicide girl in San Francisco.
Nice.
So I would like go with them and set up their booth with them.
Where are these people now?
They can still come hang out?
For no reason, just for them to hang out.
They seem like normal, cool people.
I'm sure I can introduce you if you like.
So, but it got me to thinking that Star Wars Celebration is coming up and you have tickets.
You've been waiting, what, two and a half years now?
Jesus Christ.
Almost Star Wars.
I bought tickets like three years ago.
Oh my gosh.
Take my daughter with you.
Well, there might be a problem with me getting into Star Wars Celebration now.
Why?
So when the COVID hit, the celebration was supposed to happen, right?
In Anaheim.
It was going to be lit AF.
It was going to be amazing.
Season two of The Mandalorian was about to come out.
It was going to be this huge thing, right?
Yeah, yeah.
And then, hey, COVID, you can either cancel your ticket and get a refund or keep it for two years.
Okay?
So I kept the damn ticket for two years.
Okay.
Two years.
And then we get an update.
Here's the COVID rules for Star Wars Celebration.
Five and up have to be vaccinated.
Five and up?
Five and up.
The reason that I brought it up also, Bore, I think you're going to be okay.
I hope so. Because if New York City is relaxing everything,
where Kyrie Irving of the Knicks can now finally play in his home state,
New York...
Everything should be way open.
By then, you'll be good.
It better be.
But the only thing that was stressful about seeing this was that, again,
WonderCon is happening in the same facility that Star Wars Celebration is.
They don't have those rules. There's tons of different festivals that are happening there's music shows happening
there's indoor you know sports events are happening but the fact that they put in the rules five and
up have to be vaccinated you should have seen the instagram comments it was like like if game of
thrones was full of just dorks about to raid anaheim. That's what it was. They're like, what the hell?
We're going to barge through the doors.
No, I hope so.
I think you're going to be good.
The talk in the studio, this and Ramstein,
every time he would get pushed back
during this whole COVID crap,
he'd come in and be like, dude,
Ramstein's been delayed again.
I've had so many tickets for so many things
before COVID hit,
and they kept getting pushed back.
The only two that have survived
that have been multiple reschedules is still
going are Ramstein at the Coliseum and Star Wars Celebration.
And look,
I want to see,
I want to see the cool stuff.
I want to see Mandalorian season three.
I want to see the sneak peek.
I want to see the Bad Batch season two sneak peek.
Me too.
I want to see everything with Obi-Wan.
I want to see you and McGregor on stage,
but I need to get in there.
All right.
Well,
there's something that we will be getting into a couple shout outs to some upcoming events
you and i will be seeing fluffy at frankinson's collectible show oh nice from 3 p.m to 9 p.m
next wednesday or this upcoming wednesday that'd be uh march 30th and he's also going to be back
there april 6th but we're gonna go march 30th now i have to also going to be back there April 6th, but we're going to go March 30th.
Now, I have to ask you,
now, you love Frank and Sons.
Yep. Right? Been multiple times.
Now, I went to the website
and then I looked at the flyer.
The website says it's located
in the city of industry. Yes.
But on the flyer, it says it's in Roland Heights.
It's city of industry.
The greater city of industry area. It's right on the border. Yeah. So it's city of industry the greater city right on the
border yeah so it's like like legit on the border yeah it's like right off the 60 they were more on
the city of industry side they were two blocks down on city of industry and then they move so
they're right on the border it's right off the 60 you'll find it super easy um but right where the
old sam's club used to be uh right off the 63 they're literally in a sam's
club so they used to be in an industrial factory area right and then they a sam's club moved out
so they moved in and it's this giant indoor collectible trade show it's like an indoor
swami there's tons of vendors they have everything you can imagine from baseball cards to funkos
to uh old wrestling figures from the 80s, everything is there.
Well, I think that's why Fluffy is there
because he just announced a new Funko, Eric,
with the Dodgers.
Sold out two?
No, he sold out one
and they added a Dodger Stadium night, right?
Yeah, that's kind of a big deal.
That's kind of big.
It's kind of huge.
Kind of big deal, yeah.
So this is a free event, by the way,
at Frank and Son, so come hang out we'll be there
also there's free parking at frankinson's how big is this place because i mean fluffy's not a small
draw if this if he's there from three to nine like i said an old sam's club i was outside during
covid and i had to wrap around the building just to get in wow and they have their own parking lot
again sam's club parking lot. It's huge, man.
And there's plenty of room,
plenty of space,
free parking, like I said.
It's free to get in.
It's all good.
It's probably just like
a giant warehouse, right?
Basically.
But tons of cellars inside.
And it's really awesome.
If you just want to go
just to see stuff
or if you want to go
just to see what the hell
me and Menace are buying,
if Menace is going to buy anything,
possibly.
I probably will.
I can't help myself.
Ooh, Menace,
they have Hello Kitty stuff. I was just going to say that. Isibly. I probably will. I can't help myself. Ooh, Menace, they have Hello Kitty stuff.
I was just going to say that.
Is there anything Hello Kitty?
Yep.
My wife is sending me
with a list.
I got to go.
I'm going to be looking
for Star Wars figures.
Hopefully they have
Hello Kitty Crocs, right?
Size 11.
Oh, yeah.
There's probably a Crocs
seller there somewhere.
Sounds hot.
I don't know why.
Oh, before that, though,
tomorrow night,
Eric and I,
we're going to be at the forum for the Joe Kors show.
Hell yeah, we are.
He is saving his brand new Netflix special that is tomorrow night and Saturday night.
I know Saturday night is completely sold out.
I think there's a few nosebleed tickets available for tomorrow night, but I believe Ravy is going to be there, too.
And Greg and Cameron. And so, yeah, I can't wait for tomorrow night, but I believe Ravy's going to be there too, and Greg, and Cameron, and
so yeah, I can't wait for tomorrow night.
And oh, and don't forget
Morongo, May 13th.
It's going down for real. We are
coordinating Tyler's
flight as we speak, and
it's going to be a lot of fun. I'm going to bring a
Heine. Okay, Tyler. Don't you worry about that.
Do we need to make rules already? Okay.
The prediction, they pick him up at the airport
julian the last one is already yes yes i've never okay i've never mentioned this and don't worry
tyler i'm not upset by this but i want to get your feedback julian okay so every time we have
one of these events right in morongo you know we get free room get a free room. We have a lot of fun. We have a lot of drinks.
And then Tyler always has to bring some rando.
Right.
Yep.
And then makes it all awkward.
I wouldn't care if it was like his girlfriend.
If it was his girlfriend,
okay,
part of the group.
It's all good.
Right.
But then we end up having to entertain these randos.
We have no idea what we can say in front of these people.
So,
you know,
whatever.
Yeah. Well, here's another thing. thing okay so he flies into palm springs airport okay that's over by morongo i generously always venmo him cash so he can take an uber or a taxi to Morongo. Okay. He gets people to pick him up,
but never mentions him.
No, no, no.
Can't drop a bomb.
Sketch bag Tyler, man.
You are...
No, no.
Dirt bag.
Never says anything about it.
Never says anything.
Always give him taxi money.
While he's got money in his pocket,
guess who's paying for dinner and stuff while they're there?
Not him or his date or him.
Is Tyler one of them?
Because I have a friend like this.
We all go out and it's like, okay, I got this round and another friend.
I got this round.
That girl never speaks up and tries to buy a round for any of us.
So we don't invite her out anymore.
You guys all buy drinks, but he never does.
At least two or three times
the last time we all went to Vegas.
Two or three times? You've been hanging out with them
for years.
Specifically the last time we went to Vegas.
I'll be completely
honest. If Tyler's
rolling with me or if we're doing some
event like this this I never expect
Tyler to pay for anything as long as he's not ordering like I don't know Dom Perignon or whatever
I'm totally cool with it but just the thing is like oh hey I didn't need that taxi money
because somebody picked me up always taking an uber to and from the airport that's never happened
that's a lie she said she picked you never happened she did she said she okay the last
morongo event we went to right okay you had a uh person of interest who showed up who we didn't
know who hung out with you okay straight at night you know stuff like that and nothing happened okay that was that was funny we had confirmation from you to us and from her that
she picked you up from the airport went drove you to morongo and then we had confirmation from randy
that she drove you back to the airport on your way out. Okay, definitely did not pick me up from the airport. I can guarantee.
You told me that.
No, I did not tell you that.
I do not remember telling you that.
I swear on my mom's life,
I took the Uber from the airport to Morongo.
On the way back, I'm not gonna lie,
I was still drunk from the night
before I don't exactly remember.
So, I love my mom.
But that is very Randy like behavior because let me say something about Randy.
That mother effer has never offered to give back change for anything.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
It's all for keepsies.
Always.
Always.
If it's a $7 pizza from 7-Eleven, you give them a 20.
You've never seen the change.
No.
Oh, my gosh.
No, it ever.
Them shipping to Haley's fees was heavy.
He's like, oh, did you guys know that gas is more expensive right now?
Randy, you walked across the street.
Well, yeah, but I'm going to need gas later, and I'm tired, and now I don't want to walk.
Oh, my gosh.
So, yeah.
Very Randy-like behavior.
I don't care.
I just think it's funny.
All right.
What do you think you learned from? Food news.
You guys ready for some food news? Some quick
food news? Nestle.
Oh man, it's tough in Russia
right now. Nestle stopped production
of Kit Kat
and Nesquik in Russia.
They're cut off.
Eric looked upset.
No McDonald's.
No McDonald's. No Coke. up. No McDonald's, no Coke, nothing.
You're already living in Russia,
and now they're just taking away all the fun stuff?
Like, that sucks.
Dude.
Well.
It's not fun.
You live and you learn.
That's not fun.
Don't invade people.
Yeah.
You know, you want to go in there and get Ukraine,
and you level Ukraine.
What are you going to do with it after?
Yeah, do you think they have Coke in Nesquik right now?
I don't think so.
I know.
They even have a roof.
I don't know.
I wish I could make sense of what is even happening over there right now.
You can't make sense of war period.
No, not at all.
Again, don't put a dictator in charge.
Another piece of food news.
Now, I think if my memory is correct, you might be an expert on this, Julianne,
but Applebee's is looking to open 15 drive-thrus this year.
I don't know.
That has to be like a limited menu, right?
How would Applebee's work as a drive-thru?
Well, you know what?
It would probably work.
So because I worked at Chili's and Applebee's, what I'm thinking what they would do is you
just place like a to-go order.
And instead of walking in, they just have a window. Oh, you just drive up and you pick it up. Yeah is you just place like a to-go order and instead of
walking in they just have a window you just drive up yeah you just drive through and you pick it up
but you cannot order through the drive-thru line okay they wouldn't have like a menu no you know
what if that eliminates the whole we have 25 000 spots dedicated to to-go orders i know for real
yes i'm all for it because i'm so tired of pulling up to Chick-fil-A, pulling up to
any other restaurant, sit down and
think, oh, six spots up front and there's
like 17 spots that are
to go order one, two, three, four.
Or even Walmart and Target
and all that kind of stuff.
They take up
so many spots and they're always empty
now. Yeah, they are.
Best Buy, they have like three different levels
of the spots, like pickup,
a quick 10-minute
parking, and like some other
parking. What does Best Buy need that for?
Like no one goes there for anything except for big items.
I go there all the time. It's my favorite place.
I go to Best Buy a bit too.
I just walk through and leave
sometimes. I'm buying things.
I walked up to Best Buy during COVID
and I thought they were open
and I walked up because the doors were right there
and I was like, okay, I'm going to go.
And they're like, oh, what do you need?
And I'm like, oh, I'm just going to kind of browse.
Oh, no, no.
If you need something,
we're going to go get it for you and bring it to you.
And I'm like, that's the whole fun
is just walking around Best Buy.
Like, what the hell?
I just want to see stuff.
I want to see stuff.
Look at things I can't buy.
Yeah, like those big old huge TVs
with the fishes that go across it.
Oh, yeah.
It's like almost too real.
It's like my eyes don't even see things that clear.
I know.
I love it.
I love it.
All right.
Another food news.
Miller Lite launches limited edition J Balvin inspired pints.
I'm all in.
I'm here for it.
I am actually going to go see J Balvin with Nacho in Vegas.
So that'll be fun in other food news they also have mcdonald's brings the new szechuan sauce back oh god yet
again dude do you think people are gonna go crazy oh my god did they bring it back already i think
they're about to or they did yeah okay yesterday i was trying to take felicity to go get a happy
meal the line i'm not even kidding you.
They have those two lines in and out.
The drive-thru.
Yeah, like in and out, yeah.
But the line went all the way out into the street.
So then I had to go.
Szechuan sauce?
I'm assuming.
We would freak out for this, dude.
I went next door to Taco Bell.
I thought the hype would be over.
No, it was insane.
The Taco Bell lady even stuck her head out the window looking at the long-ass line.
Called jealous.
Yeah, and I said
what the hell's over
at McDonald's
that's so good
that they're selling right now
she's like
I have no idea
that you would set stuff
it's the nacho fries effect
dude
everybody's got onto
this limited time model
where they'll tease you
and they'll bring it back
for a month
and it's gone
and then people freak out
and they're like
well guess what
it's back
and they freak out
and buy it for a month
and they'll bring it back
I'm still waiting for Mexican pizza to come back.
It makes sense, though.
It's the end of the first quarter.
So you just do these limited items
and then they're like, oh, I need to
make a couple extra bucks towards the end of the
financial quarter.
And then, boom, just dropped some Szechuan
sauce up in there and get a couple extra bucks.
They'll end up on eBay. They'll end up on
all your resale sites for some
dumb amount of money versus some dipping sauce.
Well, it works. Some dip. And then
they have to thank Rick and Morty for all that,
but Rick and Morty has jumped ship to
Wendy's. They're doing all these
Wendy's collabs. They did something at Resorts World
in Las Vegas where they did
a pop-up Wendy's and then they did
all these Rick and Morty items.
Rick and Morty's getting paid
from wendy's now not mcdonald's but mcdonald's is still benefiting from this whole shout out to
szechuan sauce thing um have you been in a grocery store lately though because the shortages are back
man for real i have noticed uh the pastas yeah or the certain bread i can't get for like three
weeks i shouldn't eat it anyways but i'm seeing and we've mentioned this in the pastas yeah or the certain bread i can't get for like three weeks i shouldn't eat it anyways
but i'm seeing and we've mentioned this in the past couple podcasts that the shelves are starting
to get empty again yeah it sucks yeah i don't know where you go i was looking for raisin bread
not too long ago and i finally found it uh like last week but it wasn't there last month when i
went it was gone um yeah like i, the pastas were all gone.
I mean, look, my store was packed like normal.
Everything was full on the shelf.
So I don't know what you guys are saying.
Oh, my God.
I can't believe I didn't bring this up.
I called Tyler the other day because we're coordinating his flight.
And I go, what are you doing?
And he's like, oh, I just got back from the grocery store.
How much did you drop at the grocery store?
He's like, dropped uh like 250
yeah or just you when i say i was out of everything i mean i was literally out of
dude honestly no way that's so much for one person yeah like that's like a family's worth
of food and like what items are you buying though um well it's funny you ask because I had a feeling this was going to be brought up,
so I pulled out the receipt right here.
Look at you.
Okay, Randy.
Okay, there's chicken, a little bit of Red Bull in there.
I was out of peanut butter, needed some bananas.
Red Bull's like $30.
I was out of pretty much all the condiments, so I needed
mayo, mustard, ketchup, all that stuff.
Tortillas. Gotta
have my Cap'n Crunch, and of course I need milk with
that. And of course, yes, if you were wondering,
there is definitely bread on here.
Mad bread. There's at least $100
worth of bread on here. What's the quantity of each one
of those? When you say tortillas, you mean like
three packs, right?
Well, tortillas, so I get packs right uh well tortillas so i get
like one 10 pack of just the normal flour ones and then i get like the 30 pack of the corn ones
because i use the corn ones for no this this is not how you shop for one person there's no way
you eat all that you're throwing it out right what's what's it doesn't last like there's no
way you're gonna eat all that while it's still well if you're making a quesadilla, you're going to need more than one tortilla.
So I see that.
You just said you bought 50 tortillas of two varieties.
Right, but I see where you're going with this, Tyler.
That's like five servings.
The flour and the corn are used for two different things.
Thank you.
That's so much food for one man to eat before it goes bad.
You need corn for your soup?
I know.
Yeah, but it goes in the fridge.
It lasts longer in there.
You can put it in the freezer.
You can half it and you can put the other half in the freezer.
How much food do you throw away that goes bad?
Like you go in the fridge and you're like, oh, crap.
I'm not even joking.
I don't throw any away.
Okay, I'm calling bullshit on this.
I know, right?
Because a lot of the stuff I eat is not.
Nacho and I buy a quarter of that, and still stuff goes bad.
Yeah, it's like, oh, crap, we forgot I had that extra tortilla
on a pack of five between me and my fiance.
You bought 50 tortillas.
A lot of the stuff I buy is non-perishable,
so it goes in the cupboard, and it just lasts a while.
It's a lot of ready-to-eat, real quick stuff.
I'm questioning what you're putting in your body.
I already did. Now I'm questioning even more. You're eating
bad food, I guarantee. If it's non-perishable,
it can't be good. But who am I to talk?
Wait, hold on. I have one follow-up question to this.
When you say bread, how many variations of bread
did you get? Bagels,
English muffins,
white bread, wheat bread.
Do you get that potato bread?
One loaf of normal bread, one thing of hamburger buns, one of hot dog buns, and one of bagels.
Hamburgers.
Bagels.
So the bagels get the hot dogs for obvious ones.
I'm buying the cheapest brand of hot dogs.
Honestly, I'm trying to cut out a lot of red meat.
I don't eat burgers as much as you do.
Yeah, the bread.
Cut out the bread.
Hold on. What are you doing? Cut out the bread. Let me cut out some red of red meat. I don't eat burgers as much as you do. Cut out the bread. Cut out the bread. Hold on.
What are you doing?
Cut out some bread.
Let me cut out some red meat too, okay?
What's the time here?
Tyler, Tyler, listen.
Listen here, Tyler.
You can get a hamburger and a hot dog
and put that in between sandwich bread.
You don't need, you're just one person.
Unless you're having a party,
then you get like the different variations
of bread but if it's just for you who cares put it between two pieces of regular bread maybe just
go hamburgers this week and don't buy everything else and then go oh let's go shopping on monday
and do hot dogs next week like a normal person yeah yeah or that i mean i just buy it all in
quantity that's just the way i do it just let me live my life tyler do me a favor at least go to
the 99 cent store
for half of that stuff.
Yes.
They have it there.
It's way cheaper.
Or Big Lots.
Okay, you know what?
That's fair.
Go to Big Lots.
Actually, now that I think about it,
I haven't seen a 99 cent store
since I've been out here.
Hold on.
What about Big Lots?
Did you say you live by one?
That's my jam.
You said you live by one.
By a 99 cent store?
No.
You know, I think I might have.
Yeah, he said that.
Like a Dollar General or something like that. Hold think I might have. Yeah, he said that. Like a dollar general
or something like that. Hold on.
I just can't believe how much bread you bought,
dude. Dude, honestly, people probably see
you grocery shopping and think, dang, this guy's providing
for his kids. He's taking home
his food.
You think they look at Tyler and think that he has
children? Hey, I'm just saying.
With that much stuff in a shopping cart?
With that much bread in a shopping cart? I believe that he could have a kid. He probably does. Yeah, he'm just saying. With that much stuff in a shopping cart, with that much bread in a shopping cart.
I believe that he could have a kid.
He probably does.
Yeah, he probably has three.
Oh, my God.
Look at how many 99 cent stores there are in Houston.
Wow.
Look at this.
Never sold one.
I've legitimately driven past them.
7, 8, 9, 10, 11.
Never sold one.
15, 16, 17, 18.
There's 19 99 cent stores in the greater Houston area.
All right.
They must all be on the east side then.
My bad.
No, dude. No, no. I will send you a photo right now. They must all be on the east side then. My bad. No, dude.
No, no.
I will send you a photo right now.
They're literally, I see two by your house.
Okay, send it to me.
All right.
You guys want to talk some sports real quick?
Wait, wait, wait.
I have something for food news.
Okay.
I had fish balls for the first time in my life the other day.
Fish balls? Yes. Have you guys ever I had fish balls for the first time in my life the other day. Fish balls? Yes.
Have you guys ever heard of fish balls?
Are we talking like balls of
fish or fish testicles?
Are you talking about caviar?
I swear to God. No, it's not caviar.
I got some pho. Is it pho?
Yeah, pho.
Okay, we
got some pho the other night and
I wasn't going to get the certain place because
it had fish balls and I'm like, what is that? You know what? Screw it and I wasn't going to get the certain place because it had fish balls.
And I'm like, what is that?
You know what?
Screw it.
I'm just going to get it.
So I got the plate, and I put it on my Instagram that I got fish balls.
And you can hear my brother in the background saying, oh, there really are fish balls.
And people are like, they're not really testicles.
Testy's a fish.
What it is, it's like ground fish all put together, and they put it into a ball.
So it kind of has a texture of tofu but
and it was in your pho yeah it was in my pho oh yeah okay it's a round ball and then i guess
they're a lot better when you deep fry them and and then you dip them in like a soy sauce and
honey or something like that everything's good that that sounds bomb but it was really odd putting
fish balls in my mouth you know like it just i don't know i'm not trying to be gross
i'm not even joking did it taste like extra fishy or um kind of it like when you bite into it it
looks like the inside of a hot dog but like yeah it had like a real fishy taste and i don't know
if if that's i think i've had the deep fried ones because i went to this place in little tokyo maybe
somewhere that sounds about right it right. They were just dumping
food on my table and I ate it and it was deep fried
little ball. It tastes like octopus though.
Oh really? That might have been octopus.
There's a really good
pho place right by the radio station called
Lotus I believe.
And I just get the
they have and I know it sounds fancy but it's not
expensive. The Flamin' Yawn.
Dude it is so freaking good.
I've had pho all day. I love it.
They put it raw on the side
and then you drop it into your pho, right?
No, this is cooked. Oh, okay.
It sounds fucking believable.
Awesome.
It was laying right there.
All right, so quick sports
news. Now, I don't know how
this is going to affect me for
next year with my picks oh you guy when it comes to fantasy football but oh no kansas city's
tyreek hill has moved to the miami dolphins the dolphins um what it's because he got paid that's
why he got he got dumb money he got dumb money for that
he got a hundred million guaranteed basically over the next two years and signing bonuses and
then an extra 120 over four so so what do you think is gonna happen is he gonna do anything
he's gonna lose a lot more in miami and now the quarterback has the quarterback been a bus or has
he been any good because he was you know one of the top picks to uh yeah when did two get picked was it two years ago tyler
i forget when 2019 yeah but he was the first rounder top what 10 or so 15 he was number
five yeah so i mean he's not that good for what should be happening with number five pick though
that's for sure and he's not patrick mahomes that's the basically the bottom line yeah and then also didn't tua like he wasn't even checked out
because of covid when he got drafted because he broke his hip yeah he was coming out of alabama
he was he was jacked up he had missed a lot of time his last year at alabama he missed he's
missed time in the pros already because of injury so tyreek hill just got a payday
well she can't be mad at him for it right too it doesn't he's not a bum but he's definitely not
he's not gonna yeah i would not pick him maybe you know we'll see how it goes with the rest of
the team because they got you got weapons you got waddle gasecki you know do you think any other
team though would have gave tyreek hill that much money well apparently the jets were in on it they
but they didn't offer um they didn't offer up a first rounder for him
in the trade package.
So that was what it came down to
is what the Chiefs wanted to.
So apparently it was the Jets and the Dolphins,
and the Dolphins just offered a better package
to trade him that way.
But apparently he was down to go to either way,
so the Jets probably would have paid him too.
I haven't really been keeping up with football
like I've told you guys,
but I mean, the last time I remember
don't the Dolphins
suck? Are they better now?
Why would you want to go there?
They're like on the fence.
That's the easiest one to say.
Middle tier. They sucked at the beginning of last year.
They won, what, a 9 in the last 10?
8 in the last 9 to get in the playoff hunt?
I want to say they started
0-8 and then
they won nine in a row. They
killed it at the back half of the year. We'll see
how it plays out. That's crazy that you're even still
doing your fantasy football stuff.
I didn't think it was going to last this long.
Really? Yeah. You beat Ravy this year.
I got better over the years. I know you have.
Yeah. So I just
I remember when you guys started it
and you knew absolutely nothing.
And I just started, you know,
paying attention to the algorithms.
I know.
The best part of my football weekends
are when Menace picks a couple Bills players
and the Bills are playing poorly
and he texts me,
dude, what's up with the Bills?
And I reply, I don't know.
I go, dude.
You're telling me.
The Bills are sucking right now.
Dude, this is your team.
Call them. Eric, how do you not have the most speed dial? I need a win. He's like me. The Bills are sucking right now. Tell me about it, man. Dude, this is your team. Call them.
Eric, how do you not have the most speed dial?
I need a win.
He's like, what's with Josh Allen, bro?
I'm like, I don't know.
He's not playing well.
Dude, he's garbage right now.
Get on the field.
Come on.
This is trash.
Anyways, all right.
I got to get out here.
I got to pay taxes.
That's a hard to do list.
That's good.
Yeah, everybody getting caught up on their taxes.
When's that due?
April.
April, mid-Apr mid April April 16th or something
See I was so used to
Getting pushed back
Every year
The last couple years
I know
I used to get mine
Done in like February
I usually get my W2
And I'm like
File that crap
Right away
No I usually do
Super quick as well
But now
Freaking married
And then
Paperwork
You know
And then we
We bought a house so i don't
even know what's gonna happen because i've been uh really good h and r block we've been figuring
out a way that i get some of my money back but now i it's up in the air i'm probably gonna get
screwed and have to pay more money probably this is why i wait till the end man i wait the last
minute i'm like oh you're not getting more money until the last second, man. I don't care. Just expect me to come to work tomorrow bishing me completely about taxes.
Oh, so you'll be like me every day.
Yeah.
Right.
But the thing is with Tyler, they don't take your state taxes.
No.
So that was kind of cool.
I did mine through TurboTax, and I did did my federal taxes which i'm pissed about because i
somehow owe eight hundred dollars dude federal is insane i've never had to pay money back i always
get money back this is the first time i've ever had to pay money back when i worked the full year
i'm not counting the years i collected unemployment but this year i put in my lids w2 and it says oh hey you're getting about 1500 back i'm
like sweet nice so i put in my iheart w2 oh you owe 800 i'm like what the hell that is literally
almost like two grand swing you selected on you know taxes like how much they would take i always
do max every year and just just take out the max and then i pray for the best but now
now that i'm married and i'm attached to nachos taxes which dude if i have to give even more money
i'm gonna cry for real hey so that house you just bought why don't you just pick it up and move it
to nevada las vegas you'll be good just i'm saying dog That's what I've been saying. Desert life.
You have to pay more.
Who's going to cover my Ubers from the airport?
Oh, my God.
I know.
Think about Tyler.
Federal government.
Think about Tyler and his needs.
All right, guys.
Well, we'll find out.
That's a little tease for you.
Will or will I not have to pay taxes?
I think you will.
I know, I'm sorry, but that's just how I feel.
I say as much as it sucks, I say definitely will.
Yeah.
Damn it.
I'm going to stay positive and say if you have to,
it's not as bad as you think it's going to be. I think you're going to get some reimbursement on that house,
and you're going to get a little bit of help.
That's what they've been telling me, but I don't know, man.
I think I'm going to get burnt.
Big purchase, and if you file jointly, they do help you out with that a little bit of help. That's what they've been telling me, but I don't know, man. I think I'm going to get burnt. Big purchase, and if you file jointly,
