Wild times.
Here we go, Wild Times.
Welcome back, everybody.
How are we feeling, boys?
Oh, great.
Yeah?
Really good.
Why did you smirk?
What happened just a minute before we started recording was you gave me some
lip. It brought me back to Extincter
alive. Because we were
going through the news stories that we wanted to cover
today. And Kyle
was graciously, we were reading them and talking
about them. And I said, Forrest, do you like any
of those? And you said,
I do not, because I have not been listening.
I've been texting. Is that helpful?
It made me think of
being in the field.
We used to husband-wife, though, is a lot
when we'd snark back and forth. Exactly.
It made me laugh. I mean, I feel like
left out. I'm sorry. No, I mean, I hate
both of you. It's, it's unbearable to watch your relationship. It's like you guys are always just
glad-hanting, tapping each other's butts. It's like you're on some fucking team together.
Kyle, is this true? Yeah. Oh, okay. I can love with that. I think we just think more similarly.
No, it's sickening. Well, sorry to hear that. You guys are, you guys are both in your own fucking worlds
today. It's fine, though. Oh, geez. Sorry. All right. Well, the cremudgeon on the far right is Peter.
No, I'm to I'm stoked. I am very excited.
excited to finally be paid attention to because you must, because if you don't, it'll be bad pod.
Good point.
Well, we're glad you're here, whether you believe that or not.
I don't.
I'm not going to do intros.
They know who we are.
If you haven't figured it out, go watch any other pod.
Let's just get right into it.
Give me some news, Kyle.
What are we got?
What's in the news?
What are you jerking off over there?
What's in the news?
There's one I was very excited about.
That's why I want to get right into it.
No banter, no small talk.
Right to the point.
Near-extinct Caribbean reptile makes an epic comeback.
Ooh.
So an animal I've never heard of the sombrero ground blizzard,
the population of it was fewer than 100 individuals in 2018.
It must look like a sombrero, I assume, right?
It must have a weird head shape.
Round.
Oh, that's, what a snoo?
It doesn't even look like.
Why does it look like?
What a snoo?
It looks nothing like a sombrero.
It's cool looking, but it doesn't appear to be wearing a decorative hat.
I must know why it's called a sombrero.
I'm very unimpressed with the aesthetic of the sombrero lizard.
I think it's cool.
Yeah, it's cool.
It looks like a Western fence lizard, a dark one.
That's what I was looking for.
I was looking for Rango.
That's what I wanted to.
That's what I anticipated it looking like.
Oh, wait, go back to the actual lizard.
That's cool.
It's pretty cool.
Look at the feet.
Look at the feet are crazy.
That's nice.
That's nice.
Pretty cool.
Oh, speaking of feet,
we got to talk about something after this.
But anyway, listen, there was less than 100 of these guys in 2018.
So pretty cool, actually.
This is an anguila in a place called.
Sombrero Island. That's where the name comes from. Not the severe lack of decorative hat.
So basically on this 38 hectaree Caribbean Island, there was storms that brought in rodents.
I think it was mice and rats. They had invasive weeds, bees, all kinds of things. And
scientists went in there and they eradicated all of those invasive species and monitored the
little lizards. And since 2018, what does it say now, Kyle? How many lizards we got now?
1600.
Oh, wow.
So big bounce back from 100 100.
What is that?
What's that percentage, Pat, with your math?
What's 100 to 1600?
Is that 1,600%?
That's correct.
Okay.
God is my witness.
Oh, Pat's math.
That's a long drop for.
I didn't even remember the jingle.
Yeah, we haven't.
We haven't played a Pat's math at a really long time.
Sorry about that.
It's a really good jingle, though.
Yeah.
Kyle, as he was realizing how long it was,
he was excited because he thought he got it in.
Right.
And then he just started thumbs-downing him.
Instead of pushing the button to stop the jingle from continuing to play,
he was thumbs down.
He was too far in at that point.
He thumbs down. Hey, Kyle, I want to look up something.
So when we were looking at this article here,
it mentioned that not only has bringing this lizard back
and eradicating the invasive species been helpful,
but it saved the Sombrero Island Bee, the pygmy gecko.
and the thing that I want you to look up, the wind scorpion.
Take a look at a sombrero Island wind scorpion.
Okay.
Tell us why are you so fascinated?
Why am I fascinated?
Imagine a scorpion that just blows through the wind and lands on you to sting.
It's a tiny little scorpion.
That's what that means?
I don't know.
I was guessing.
That's how I read it.
Wow, your guys' brains really do aren't the same.
I bet it's so light that like in a strong, strong breeze.
Sorry, it suddenly lands on your hat.
It's a harmless spider-like invertebrate that lives on the same.
from Burrow Island. Much less cool. I was envisioning like a large, wispy kind of scorpion that just
wings and kind of like glides and then just has like a lethal venomous as it lands on you.
If I were to name an animal like I had, if I got that responsibility, I would want to come up with like
the coolest name no matter what the animal. It can be like the most tiny, awful thing.
I love this. Stop. Is it a game? Give me a game jingle. Give me a game jingle. Generic game jingle.
Name the creature.
Name the creature.
All right, Kyle.
Here's how the game works.
Here's how the game works.
You're going to pull up these three animals.
The Sombrero Island B, the Sombrero Island pygmy gecko, and the Sombrero Island wind scorpion.
We know their names.
So now we're going to rename them.
We're trying to save Sombrero Island, gentlemen.
We have to give them a sexier name.
You want to up tourism so that people come to the island.
Nobody's coming here to see the pygmy gecko.
I've got a pigmy gecko.
I've got a pygmy gecko in every, every fucking island.
Yeah, it's going to be tough to beat the sombrero-headed lizard, though.
No, well, that's why we left him out.
Yeah.
So we've got to rename these three critters to help them survive.
If we give them a sexy name, people are going to care.
Right now they don't.
Well, I've said, so I've made two series, one about Yellowstone and one about Yosemite that's dropping this month.
And I used the line in Yellowstone 150 of like, boys thought it'd be cool to be the first person to be somewhere,
because you get to name everything.
Totally.
And then we were talking about how the places in Yosemite got the names.
And I was like, can I just reuse my own line?
Yeah, why not?
Years ago?
And I put it in the second one.
Great.
Because it is true.
It's like you wonder how did all this stuff get names.
It's like this guy thought it looked like it was the chief.
Yeah.
Interesting.
Chief's rock.
Yeah, exactly.
All right, here we go.
So this is the sombrero.
We're not going to take too long on this.
We're just going to go for it.
First thing that pops to your mind.
Like, you know those old things you used to see where they show the kid the black and white thing goes,
lollipop.
The three, two, one.
Love it.
Okay.
Kyle, start it.
What is this thing?
This is, okay, so, yeah, Sanbera Island, wind scorpion.
Three, two, one.
Man eating termite.
Wow.
Okay.
What did you call it?
The rock crawler.
Man eating termite.
Oh, that's nice.
I just called it Brownl.
Brownle.
I didn't have anything.
I'm like rock eating termite.
That's pretty good.
You're the worst.
The brownel?
I think he was staring at his own brownel this morning.
Why would that draw over?
Proud.
Brownell, they wouldn't even know what it is.
Oh, we're trying to draw a crowd to the island.
We're trying to save the animal by giving it something.
You know what I mean?
Sorry, Brownel.
Put a flag on it.
I would like to eliminate the Brownell immediately.
It's a petition to burn the island.
Rock eating termite.
I think man eating termite would also get the island burned down.
I said rock crawler.
I just, I panic.
So we're going to go a combo rock eating termite.
It's not better, but okay.
It's much, much worse.
Corpian was cooler.
All right.
Let's go.
Number two.
Cumbarro Island B.
Yeah, this is like your generic, boring bee.
So let's take a second here.
We got to really think.
We got to turn this into something sexy.
No, I agree.
This is actually kind of a cool looking bee
that gives me a feeling inside when I look at it.
It makes me think of something.
Okay.
Ready.
I'm ready.
Three, two, one.
Battle Harden B.
Shiny Dragon B.
Wow, that's pretty nice.
Now, battle-hardened B.
Battle-hearteded B.
It looks shiny and metallic.
It looks like it's got a suit of armor on.
We should have a shiny dragon bee.
I went for it.
It kind of does look like a dragonfly, though, a little bit.
I went for the perfume bee, so I was going to make people think that it smells lovely.
Perfew bee is nice, but I think the shiny dragon bee is pretty cool.
I have to agree with that because it does have that weird rainbow sheen on it.
The floating emerald bee.
I don't know.
Oh, that would be a great.
That was good.
That was real good.
All right.
get right to it, Kyle. No time to think.
Oh, God.
Wait, what animal is it?
Wait, what animal is?
I got to name it with the amynolds.
Come on.
Honestly, it doesn't look like there's any pictures of this thing.
What is it?
What is it?
The Sabarro Island Pygmy Gecko.
Okay. Got it.
Just imagine, you know, just imagine.
Okay.
Imagine it kind of looks like that.
It's tiny.
Okay.
Yep. Three, two, one.
Tiny genitals.
A minuscule velvet lizard.
Tiny worm lizard.
Pig genitals.
Big genitals.
I vote pig genitals.
I would travel anywhere to see an animal name.
What did you call it the velveteen?
The tiny velvet lizard.
It's not very good.
Not very creative.
Okay.
You know what I've learned is where we shouldn't be so critical of what people have called
their animals?
It's not easy.
It's harder than you think.
It's not easy.
Take more than three seconds to think about it.
That's the other idea.
Sit down with a cup of coffee.
Kyle, pull up a random animal of your choosing.
Let's do this one more time.
I kind of like this game.
Nobody look.
Nobody looks.
Okay.
Everybody look away.
Okay.
Well, actually, while he's doing that, here's, here's
time for it. I'm going to have a magic mind because
I want to really be invested in this.
I want to think about it. And it definitely has that effect
of, I believe I'm smarter the second it touches
my life. I believe I'm funny. I have one of these magic mind
gummies. Nice. All right. I got
an animal. Okay. Are you guys ready?
I'm going to pull it up. And you guys
have three seconds. Do we looking at it?
And then here we go. Count it down.
Oh, that's the wrong one.
Three, two, one.
Alien.
What'd you call it? I just yelled alien.
I said cutie patootie.
I said I-I-I.
Well, I think cutie-patooty obviously wins.
It is a cutie-patutti.
It is a picture of a tarsier
It has giant eyes and is goddamn cute.
But that is nice.
If the tarsier was named the cutie-pat-tutie,
people like kids would there be kids books around it?
There'd be all kinds of things.
A million.
Yeah.
But instead,
with the name Tarsier,
you can't even like pronounce it.
You don't know to spell it.
You're like, eh.
I think there's already an animal named an I-I-I isn't there.
You know that.
No, I was talking about because of its eyes.
It's essentially that if it was really ugly.
Yes. It's like that went in a microwave for a while.
That animal was actually an AA.
Hey,
Hey, hey. Do one more. Do one more. Do one.
Okay. I don't know if he was going to watch this, but I'm enjoying the game.
Okay. All right. Close your eyes. Whatever.
The three to one game was fun. Okay. Well, whatever this next one is, I'm calling it a cutie patootie. Just so you know.
All right. Everyone close your eyes. They're close. Here we go. One second. Hang on. Not looking at Pat. staring into Peter's blue eyes.
Okay. All right. Three, two, one.
Longhorn pusher.
Fleg.
Horn top asshole.
Hornhead, hornheaded horn.
What did you call it?
Longhorned pusher.
I just said flog.
Horny.
It's a Texas longhorn cattle.
A Texas horny cat, cow.
A Texas horny cow, dude.
Patrick literally just said letters.
He's like, Flegg.
Flegg.
I thought I had more, but I was going to, I think I was going to say Flegman.
I can do this for another 45 minutes.
It's pretty fun.
Last one.
We're not even drunk either.
I think that's a Texas horny cow.
We all agree.
Oh, that's nice.
Texas horny cow's nice.
Yeah,
it's probably not in Texas.
Oh, it is.
It is.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
All right.
Okay.
Don't look.
Okay.
You're doing one more?
Let's try it this time.
Let's have four seconds.
Okay.
That extra second might really help.
It definitely might out.
Yeah.
All right.
Nobody look.
It's not going to get worse.
All right.
Here we go.
eyes again.
They're quite nice.
I'm uncomfortable with them.
Three, four.
Stripey bug.
Fat,
glowy beetle worm.
Damn it.
That wasn't even four seconds.
Wait,
what is that thing?
But he started counting down,
I was still looking away.
I hadn't looked at the photo.
I thought it was look at the photo.
Then you have four seconds.
That would have been a better way to do.
Let's try it again.
In my head,
that's what I thought.
Okay.
Count it again.
Count it again.
The black and white glow worm.
One,
two, three,
four.
Stripey delto.
Big.
Uh,
bug.
Crawley dildo.
It's impossible.
It's very difficult.
When you're on the spot, it's hard.
But that's like caterpillars are a really good name.
It's like that sounds cute, the hungry, hungry caterpillar or whatever.
It's a good name.
It's got a lot of syllables.
I don't like when you're like walking through the forest and you walk through one of those white foamy things and come out with a thousand caterpillars on you.
I know what you're talking about?
It's pretty awful.
Have you ever heard that happen?
Uh-uh.
What's the white foamy thing?
Like a nobody knows, to be honest.
I just don't even know.
It sounds like these things.
It's like these caterpillar nests.
Oh, yeah.
I have seen that.
I've obviously never touched one.
Be horrific.
All right.
Well, that was a game.
It was a game.
It was a game.
Pretty litter, guys.
I love it.
It is cold outside.
My cat's inside.
My litter box is actually in my wife's office.
Ever since we got pretty liver started getting.
Pretty liver.
Ever since we got pretty litter.
I don't think your liver is very pretty right now.
It's been getting delivered straight to the door.
We throw it in there.
My wife doesn't have to worry about it.
It's stinking up her office anymore.
also gives us peace of mind that our cat is not sick.
That's right.
It changes color to indicate early signs of potential illnesses in the cat.
It's amazing.
Like I said, ships ripe to my door.
I don't ever have to think about it.
My wife doesn't have to go to the store and put it in the car.
If you have a cat, try it.
Just try it.

It was Valentine's Day.
What'd you guys do?
Nothing.
We don't do anything for it.
Really?
Yeah, we both.
I mean, it's one of the reasons we got married.
We were like, we just hate Valentine's.
Well, when you've procreated with your Valentine's,
I feel like you celebrate Mother's Day, one or the other.
One or the other interesting.
I'm not.
I'm not.
We didn't do anything.
I'm the opposite.
I'm like two grand on flowers.
Really?
I paint the red pink for the day, the room pink.
Just for the day?
I really dislike that.
Nah, that's insane.
It makes me angry.
It's such a consumerism holiday.
Well, I don't even care about that.
It's definitely one of those things we're like, you know, I, I will, I feel like I can
judge a person based on the seriousness with which they take Valentine's Day.
And it's valid.
Like if you get mad at your significant other
because they didn't do something outrageous for you on Valentine's Day,
you're not a good person.
You're bad person.
Or because someone else's boyfriend or whatever did something more.
Oh, God.
Sent like two dozen roses to the office and yours only sent six carnations.
I kind of imagine there's a guy in history that's ever experienced this.
But if you're a woman who feels this, no, I mean, as far as like the guy being upset that it has to another guy.
guy that feels this way like
you should just off yourself.
Yeah, that's probably true. I don't really.
I do a bit of a thing for Mother's Day.
Like I'll get her a big thing of flowers.
Yeah.
Write a nice heartfelt card. Usually the night before
when I'm drunk so that I can be a more, you know.
Yeah. Open. Yeah. Emotional.
And, you know, whatever.
But for Father's Day,
there's only one thing I want.
Peace. Alone time.
Quiet. Get out of the house without the case.
Yep.
Yep, yep.
Or let me go to a sports bar or go golf or something like that.
For Valentine's Day, I have only ever done one thing.
As long as I can remember, on my way home from the gym, I stop at Albertsons.
I get a 1499 bouquet of roses.
It's about eight dead-looking roses.
They're shit as hell.
Now they're 1999.
Then right by the checkout, there is a box of lint truffles.
Oh, my wife loves those.
Yeah.
And that's also another 18 or so dollars.
So for 40 bucks, you'd get that.
No card.
hand it over, shows you made the effort to stop at the grocery store.
I love how you throw it.
No card.
Yeah.
That's the same.
What am I going to say?
Kyle's 23.
I have nothing left to say.
Single.
Unmarried.
What did you do for Valentine's Day, Kyle?
A whole lot of nothing.
What was talking about?
You didn't get anything?
Did you at least?
Did you at least?
Did you do this?
Kyle? Did you?
Did you?
No.
Did you at least swipe on Grindr?
I mean, Tinder.
Sorry.
I shouldn't.
I wasn't supposed to.
Saining.
All right, let me ask you this.
Yeah.
Let me try this on.
Let me try this on for size.
Imagine you're a young, fertile male like Kyle.
I am.
Oh.
You know, 17 like Kyle.
And he's just out there laying more pipe than a plumber.
Turns out.
Pulling more tail than a...
Nope.
Tars here.
He's out there just laying pipe left and right.
But Kyle's not a sailor.
He doesn't wear a condom.
He's not a guy for jimmies.
Oh, boy.
He's just...
I'm going some.
more with this.
What's
happening right now?
Just humor me.
He's,
he's sploge
himself all over the place.
Oh, my grandma
now listens to this.
All women have already
tuned out.
All right.
Just let me finish.
I've got,
I've got a direction here.
Sounds like you already
might have.
As Kyle is spreading
his seed like that
of a dandelion
impregnating so many.
Turns out
his seed is tarnished.
Oh boy.
Not only is Kyle
dead on the end.
inside. He has poison seed, meaning his sperm is poisonous and it's killing the females he's
copulating. Has he been somehow genetically engineered by scientists? Well, yes, he has. Oh my God,
it sounds like a superhero movie or super villain, I should say. Just like, Peter, we lost Peter.
I cannot like, Forrest when he just was like, just like, it was like from an 80 sitcom the way his hair flipped.
I know what's going on with you.
With me?
Yeah.
What?
I think that the combination of caffeine,
multiple types of caffeine and gummy and alcohol,
and I feel like you're like a little bit like you feel like you're like two stone.
We're losing.
No, I feel great.
What are you talking about?
I've been involved.
Kyle has been laughing at my jokes.
I just had a great joke.
No,
I thought he were when he,
I thought he scared you when he did his hair flip and you're like,
am I tripping?
Well,
I didn't eat an eighth of cybecelline mice from.
the way of this. Sybicill and Selma. All right, listen, the whole point of this ridiculous hypothetical is because this is what scientists are doing in Australia with mosquitoes. So Australian researchers have developed, yeah, true. Explain quick. Australian researchers have developed a population control method using genetically... Oh, I thought you met the researchers were going around poisoning women with the toxic sperm. Peter, stay on track here. Sorry, I don't have the document in front of you. They've been using genetically engineered male mosquitoes to poison females with venom-proachers.
during mating to reduce their lifespan.
Oh, I love that.
It's really interesting.
What the researchers have done is they have taken spider and sea anemey venom genes
and put them into the mosquito eggs, which is incredibly labor intensive.
But by the time the male mosquito hatches, it's kept that spider and see an enemy venom.
Wow.
Put into its sperm.
That's crazy.
And now when it's out there just spreading his seed like Kyle on Valentine's Day, it's
really just knocking out the females.
It's reducing the blood feeding by 40 to 60% and shortening the female lifespan.
Did you know that only the females feed on blood?
That one I did know.
Well, the males are huge, aren't they?
Aren't the males very big?
I don't know if they're bigger or small.
I don't remember.
But yeah, sorry, I should have clarified that.
Only female mosquitoes are the ones that you get bitten by.
So by doing this and knocking down the female population, obviously,
that means it knocks down the population of mosquitoes that will bite you.
Oh, dude.
They must do this with these whole.
horrible, these Asian mosquitoes we have around here that are impossible to swat.
They're like intelligent.
Yeah, they are.
You can't.
You can't.
The ankle biters?
The ankle biters, bro.
They are the worst.
Luckily, like, it's winter, so they're not around.
But the second it rains, man, and these guys come around, you cannot, like, I can't kill
them.
I had to buy an electric, an electrocuting tennis racket to be able to get them.
So I could swat them in mid-air.
Because, you know, they will just keep coming, keep coming.
You swat them away.
They do not go away.
And your point is a valid one, right?
So something a lot of people don't talk about is like, oh, why don't we spray for mosquitoes anymore?
Remember when we were younger?
You always fucking spray for mosquitoes, right?
They spray your lawn and shit like that.
They don't do that anymore.
One, because we've learned, like, it's not the most environmentally responsible thing to do.
But two, the thing that's not talked about is a lot of mosquitoes are pesticide resistant now.
Oh, great.
Because like everything, we're making them harder.
tougher and stronger because we sprayed them all out.
1% of the mosquito population that lived was resistant to pesticides, right?
That's the 1% that bred back.
And now these giant populations of mosquitoes are like massively pesticide resistant.
So we're now coming up with another means by which to try and regulate the population of mosquitoes.
So, I mean, it's fair to say that they might become resistant to these kinds of like toxins.
You know what they're not resistant to?
What's that?
Bats.
bats. I think I mentioned this, but
I heard about someone
on the radio, on a podcast
that built a bat house
out by his pool.
Put a bat house to control
the mosquitoes. Oh, that's interesting.
Yeah, and he said it's amazing. I mean, I like bats, dude. People are afraid of
them, but I think they're super cool. They're pollinators. They're good for the
environment. Like, yeah, bats are great. Dude, I have a bat box.
I have literally that second one over up in my garden.
So does you get bats?
I've had it up, like, way up in a eucalyptus tree for probably five years.
Never once has it had a bat.
True story.
So what?
You do?
You have a bat box that never got a bat.
Never once.
How frustrating is that?
What's the thought?
Is it just basically providing a dark space to hang upside down and do weird shit?
That's literally it.
It looks like a cave almost.
Yeah.
It's literally, exactly.
It's a dark space for them to go in and hide.
I feel like you've got to do something a little bit more.
Like, you got to furnish it nicely.
Like you got to, there's got to be.
draw for them to come in. Kyle,
have you guys seen the video of someone who
filmed inside the bat box
and it looks like they're like a 90s goth
rave? Dude, I love it. I love that.
I want to see this. I must see it. It sounds
amazing. But that's what I'm
talking about, dude. Like, these bats have
plenty of place to party.
Type in, type in goth, rave.
Oh, that was the second one down.
You got to play it with music.
You got to play it with. Oh, yes. That is actually
happening? Please put the music on.
They're not actually. Oh, because they're upside down.
Yeah.
Oh my God, that is hilarious.
Look at that.
The foot moving?
What?
It's a time lapse.
Oh, it's really funny.
So these bats look like they're dancing to this rave music because it's a time lapse.
They're hanging upside down.
The camera's upside down.
Right, right.
It looks, this is so cool.
It looks like they're standing up dancing in a rave in capes.
This is fantastic.
Yeah.
This only has 274,000 views.
Everybody go and give this another.
million views. It's been served
to me on Instagram like at least
10 times. This is so your humor too.
Yeah. Dude,
so I think, you know, we can
solve your problem. And if you
have any ideas out there in the audience, how we
can solve Forrest and Kyle's
problem, I'm not getting any bats to their bat box.
Please drop it in the comments. Oh, please do.
I'd love to lure some bats to the bat box.
My idea is you could
just put a little bit of alcohol in there.
Like in, uh, they'll come. And then they'll come and
drink the alcohol and become alcoholic bats that don't want to really leave that area.
You know what that little goth bat rave reminded me of?
Kay.
Okay.
Special K?
Spanish for what?
Oh.
Special gay.
Jesus.
And I'm the one that took...
Bilingual in my home.
Okay.
All these like dead subcultures.
Oh, yeah.
What happened to skateboard subculture or pop punk subculture or pop punk subculture or
You know what I mean?
Like all these things,
Goths.
Remember in high school?
Dude,
my high school,
like my sophomore junior year,
if you walked around my high school,
there was the goth kids,
there were the skateboarding kids,
there were the football kids.
It was all these subcalls.
That doesn't happen anymore.
I don't know.
I think it's still happens.
Nobody's out of the house.
No way, bro.
You walk around a high school today.
You don't see the group
with the crazy hair
and the fucking nose rings.
What high schools have been walking around?
It's at night,
but still.
You're aging yourself out here, man.
No way, bro.
a lot of our younger listeners are going to be like,
no, that's not true.
I see, there's this place.
Name three subcultures that are active today like they were when we were kids.
Name three.
There's definitely like emo,
tiny,
tiny.
So no matter what I say,
you're just going to say tiny or small.
Hey,
he's fucking,
he's serious about this.
Raging on caffeine right now.
There's absolutely the punk,
punk culture is out there with Mohawks died.
It was always tiny.
I mean,
I don't know about like maybe like,
maybe like the nerd culture has become like the biggest normalized culture whereas before I feel
like it was like everybody's on a computer or phone or playing Minecrafting shit.
I do wonder if social media has caused homogenization.
I think it has for sure.
That's my point.
And they're all hanging out on discord talking like people are talking to each other online.
So the standing out like being unique thing is now done in a different.
manner when you're communicating with people online.
So think about, so like, you said this place was steps from the water.
We just haven't found the steps yet.
How much did we save?
Enough.
Enough to get lost.
Or you could book a stay with Hilton.
Welcome to your ocean front room.

I remember as a freshman in high school.
Like you're not.
No chance of like pulling like the Supreme.
I didn't.
No talent.
There was like some girl in my one of my classes that was a year older that like had a nine
inch nails t-shirt.
And so I was like, I'm going to see if that could be something that works for me.
Yes.
I like literally got a nine inch nails t-shirt.
I'd never listen to the music.
Nope.
And so it's like, I think it's just like, you're finding something that you can do.
But, right?
Like, you're like, okay, I can't be one of the football guys.
Right.
I can't be one of the band kids because I don't play a trumpet.
There's this other group that just wears black clothing and, and likes a certain type of music.
That's, maybe that's the thing I can do.
Sure.
I just think it's, I just think it's really gone away.
Like, I feel like it was huge when we were younger.
It's all done online now.
And yeah, sure, it's online.
but that's lame.
I used to see the skateboard kids, the goth kids, the punk kids,
you know what I mean?
Like you don't see that anymore.
It's funny because like you're just turning into an old man.
I mean, that's what you're doing.
Every old man.
I'm complaining that the young kid stuff that's cool isn't around anymore.
An old man would complain that it's got.
No, no.
There's too much of it.
A bad skateboarders.
That's what I'm saying.
An old man would complain about how things are different now
and that all the subcultures of when I was younger aren't there anymore.
Yeah, what happened to the flapper girls?
That's right.
Exactly.
We're all the greasers.
Yeah.
By the way, greasers should come back.
Hey, Kyle, can I throw you under the bus here?
Okay.
Okay.
Do me a favor.
What we're talking about goth kids?
Grab a picture of you from high school.
The one you shared with me when we were at the creamery.
Why would you ever share something embarrassing with Forest?
I don't know what you're talking about.
Oh, that's a damn lie.
That's buried away.
Dude, come on.
You got to share it.
It's so good.
Did I send it to you guys when you showed it to me?
I just continue with the conversation.
Kyle go to a creamery.
Do you remember what it was called?
Where were we?
We were like in the Midwest or something.
Where were we?
Where we went to that.
Oh,
you would probably know.
It's where you get the,
Custards.
Yeah,
the custard place in the Midwest.
Culvers?
Yes.
Yes.
That's exactly it.
We were at Culvers.
And that's all they have?
I don't know.
They have all kinds of things.
Are you familiar with this change?
Are you familiar with Chalvers?
I think it was on our fast food bracket and we were all like,
what the fuck is this?
Oh, okay.
But that was probably pre you and Kyle's creamery day.
That's why I called it a creamery.
By the way, is that just a little...
Is that a fried cheese curd?
Yes, it is.
That's what we went there for.
We went for deep fried cheese curds.
Yeah, it's a good...
It's a real good place.
It was really good.
Oh my God.
I skip the burger.
Just double me up on the fried curds.
And the cookie dough custard mix.
Kyle, real quick.
Yeah.
I'm going to just throw out the question.
Everyone's going to answer.
Okay.
Do it.
You must.
I know this is coming out three days after Valentine's Day.
Yeah.
You must spend $10,000 on your significant other on Valentine's Day.
Okay.
Giving you the money, you must spend it.
Can't have a cent left over.
Yep.
Okay.
Can you go over though and make up the difference?
No, you can't go over.
This is simple for me, dude.
Oh, my God.
So it's going to be a trip.
I mean, first of all, it's going to be a weekend getaway.
Okay.
I wasn't thinking that that was an option.
That's a really good option.
Well, I mean, you must.
And that includes like childcare.
Somebody's going to take the kids for two days.
Sure.
Where are you going?
Okay.
I mean, we're going to go up to Canada, a nice,
up to Whistler, Canada.
That's right.
That is a fantastic option.
Yeah, because, I mean, we did the Mexico thing.
I want to get away from the fire.
You loved it so much.
I want to get as far away from the Mexico thing as I can.
And we're going to go up there.
Everything's a little bit more expensive.
You know, it's going to pay for the flights, the Airbnb, the child care.
And I think we'll easily go through 10 grand for a four day, three nights, three nights day.
I'm very upset.
You took that off the table.
Tripp is now off the table, to be clear.
I agree the trip is off the table.
It's by far the best option.
That's really good, Peter.
Thanks.
Okay, fine.
I have 10 grand.
I'm going to take that 10 grand.
And with it, I'm going to build my wife a greener.
house where she can do a veggie garden.
That's pretty cool.
I feel like that's about $10,000.
A really nice like green house where she can do a veggie garden.
Has misters?
Oh, the whole thing.
Yeah, they open to let, you know, the humidity out when it's too high, close, the whole thing.
Yeah.
And the reason being like we try and do a garden every year, you guys have been to my house.
You know, it's like just gets trash.
The ground squirrels, the rabbits.
Like it's just the donkey, whatever.
So she's always wanted, dude, he gets in there and runs a muck.
She's always wanted a greener.
greenhouse to grow like her orchids and then do a veggie garden and blah blah blah that's not
just getting ravaged by animals. There you go. It's protected in the greenhouse. Yep.
I got a gun to my head, right? Someone's going, you must spend the 10,000. So I'm going to do
something that I've been intrigued by, but we'll never do because of the price. Finishing your swimming
pool. No, that's still in process. Hopefully, yeah. Going to French laundry.
What? French laundry. What is this? Yeah. That's where Gavin Newsom went during COVID regular.
Gavin Newsom when he was trying to put people in jail for not wearing a mask was photographed unmasked at a huge gathering.
I remember that.
And lied about it.
Yeah.
Good governor though.
Oh, yeah, he killed it.
Great good governor.
If you live in California, you hate Gavin Newsom.
What is this?
What is French law?
It's like the most elite restaurant.
It's in, I think, Sonoma, Sonoma Valley.
What kind of foods do they have there?
Like, it's just a...
And they have a daily menu.
It's like, it's a price fix.
You know, you do like...
So I'll get, pull up those menus.
Well, I need to know what the price is so that I can verify, so I don't have to blow your brains out.
Does it cost $10,000 to do this trip?
I mean, if he orders three thousand dollars of wine, he's going to cover a lot.
Exactly.
That's what I was going to say, because I'll do.
Okay, okay.
Does it list a price, though?
Of course not.
Well, scroll down.
It might be there.
It might be there.
See if there's go to the bottom.
Sometimes we're at the bottom.
Sense of urgency is the price.
They don't even try anymore.
They just say sense of urgency so that you do this.
quickly. You better order right now.
No. I mean, so
I mean, I can, there we go. That's not.
That's not. 3.50 per person, Google
AI says. I'm just telling you, that's not
true. Okay. So it's way
more than that. I mean, a thousand per person.
Just to be clear. Yeah. In
22, 700 per person
with no alcohol included. So are you
taking us and our own? Wives and girlfriends, too?
Well, he also has to get there. He's probably going to charter a plane.
Why don't you pull up for a wiring a plane's a good idea.
He's probably about 3,000 now. I'm trying to save his life.
He's at 3K. He's got to go
7 grand. Show me some of those.
Oh, that's a pretty extensive over a hundred page.
Is that a $5?
What do they have there?
There was a $105 tea. Did you see that?
I'm not joking.
Scroll up.
$102.2.
So I figured you could get another $3,000 out of the menu, just on wines.
Oh, those are pages.
I'm sorry.
Those are not prices.
Kyle, go to the domestic reds, page 41.
I'm trying to somehow keep this like,
autologically entertaining because it's so
not pod-fod.
but what do we got here?
The restaurant menu?
Yeah, the restaurant menu.
No, I mean, look, there's a bottle that's a thousand fifty.
Keep going down.
I feel confident that Patrick could drink his way to 10.
No, no, it can be done.
There's a lot of expensive wines on this.
There's a $7,500 bottle right there.
Oh, there you go.
Okay.
Done.
You probably go over budget a little bit there.
Then we're going to kill them anyway.
I don't know if I want that one.
Now, would you have sex with your wife after?
No, don't be ridiculous.
You're going on an all-you-can-eat meal.
You're a 10-course meal.
Are you nuts?
By the way, I mean, it's a thing, isn't it?
You don't want to have sex after.
For the younger people.
Kyle, you need to learn this.
Once you get married, if you go somewhere where the meal is anything over a light salad,
you'll never ever have sex with your significant other that night.
Tell me I'm wrong, gentlemen.
Tell me I'm wrong.
If you're going out for steak, you're going to bed after.
That's how that works.
First, you're like, going to put her under the blanket while you rip a juicy fart too.
I would never. That's not me.
That's not me. No way.
I can tell Pat has a problem with that statement.
I just made.
I can see.
No, no.
Kyle was showing.
There's a $21,000 cigar or something like that.
Oh, shit.
Oh, wow.
There we go.
Oh, wow.
By the way, what do you mean?
I get it.
Like, you can be, you can have FU money.
But how much better could be the $21,000 cigar be than like the $5,000 cigar, for example?
All right.
You know what?
I like where we're going with this.
Kyle, set us up for a top three DFL.
game here. Here we go. Top three, DFL.
Ooh.
Okay.
Dead fucking lost.
I love these jingles.
It's great.
It's just Valentine's dates.
Really simple. We don't have to spend $10,000.
Just rattle them off.
We're all sitting here being crumagony
about it. Valentine's Day was a couple days ago.
What are you going to do?
I mean, it's pretty dated.
It was three days ago.
I hate this.
I hate Valentine's Day.
Well, I know what my DFL would be.
Let's just do that, DFL.
Just going to the movies.
It's awful.
Awful date.
You're not talking.
You're not looking at the other person.
That's literally the best part about it.
I have a terrible profile, so I don't want someone looking at the side of my face.
So I'm not, the movies is the worst possible date.
That might be my favorite day.
You don't have to say anything.
You just sit there in silence.
Yeah, but then, I mean, how do you get your game on?
Like, I mean, are you talking?
So like if you're with a new girl, like on a day.
We're making up as we go here.
Okay.
My DFL, since this is a new game, we're just doing DFLs.
it would be going for tea at like an Asian
Chinese garden.
Oh yeah.
That sounds.
That's awful.
Honestly consider killing myself.
At Huntington Garden and my,
my ex-wife,
like,
always wanted to like take people that came to visit for tea at the Huntington
Garden.
I'm just like,
please.
Like,
she eventually realized,
like,
I'm not going and I don't want to do that.
But like the first time I was just like,
what is this?
Just sitting in a bright.
Lightly lit room with flower color.
It's all white.
It's terrible.
It's all dried tea.
Tea, bro.
And then they have like these overpriced cakes and shit.
Like, it's just.
Yeah, yeah.
There's nothing like a nice cake at 10 a.
Yeah.
Slab a cake.
Kyle just came from this exact place, by the way.
Wait, you mean he came?
No, that's awful.
I hate that.
All right.
Yeah, that's just doing.
That's despicable.
What's your DFL forest?
Did you go?
Hang on.
Did you let her convince you to go to tea?
Well, I went, we were there and we were like, you got to make it a point, a reservation and shit.
And I was like, to sit and drink tea.
That was just like never again.
Yeah, yeah.
This is why me and my ex-wife didn't get, like, we weren't compatible.
Nobody's compatible with anybody that wants to sit and drink tea.
This is like what 85-year-old English women do.
I mean, no, no, like young, even middle-eight, like 40-year-old, like my wife would never want to be like, let's go do tea.
I remember when her friend came and visited that one summer.
Did she take her to go see this tea?
I, which fry I have no idea.
Well, because one of his ex-wife's friends came,
and then there was like a day where we entertained the friend.
Okay.
And we just rented bikes, road bikes on the beach and drank all day,
and like had the most fun ever.
Oh, nice.
And like swam in the ocean and like, just ride bikes, stop, get more beers.
But I'm like, did she take her to the tea room the day after that?
Nah, maybe. I don't know. I wasn't there.
I just know, without any doubt, based on this conversation, the next time I think of an occasion,
I'm going to send Leodd an invitation to two for this tea garden, just to put Peter in living hell for a day.
I would, I would, so you're going to purchase her a gift card to this?
Yes, for two.
I'm going to, I'll wait, I'll, print it out. I'll hack her email account.
Dude, I'm going to cover your expenses of child care. I'm going to make you two go to this.
By the way, covering the child care, it would make this worth it.
I would go do it immediately.
I know, but you would feel so spicy being out of the house
that you would really want booze at this tea purveyor.
Oh, dude, I just wanted to tell my wife,
but I couldn't because she would never allow this.
I need to start carrying a flask around.
You're right.
You should not tell your wife that.
Just like during the-
Probably take that back from the podcast.
During the cold months,
just having a flask in the inside pocket,
maybe a little whiskey in there.
You got to warm up every once in a while.
You want to sip it.
All right.
My DFL, it happened once, never again, hot yoga.
Oh, God.
Hot yoga for two, a bickroom class.
Yeah, I've done it.
Oh, why on a date?
Dude, everybody's pouring sweat.
It's disgusting.
It's hard as fuck.
It's incredibly hard.
There's some guy that looks like that named Yondel who's yelling at you.
Yonnell.
It's like, what the fuck?
You know, everybody's trying to be Zen and you just feel like your neck's going to break.
It's awful.
Yeah, I did it once too.
I forgot all the dudes had their shirts off.
Everybody.
And you go in there, you're like, I'm not taking my shirt.
Are you joking?
Yeah.
You're, you know, you're flubber.
It doesn't matter how fit you are.
Unless you don't eat anything, you, your tits are hanging as a 40-year-old man.
Someone comes over and puts their hand on your side.
You're like, oh, come out of here.
I'm sweating bullets.
It's over 90.
I think it's like 95 in the room.
Yeah, no thank you, Yondle.
Me and my brother did it one time, I remember.
And I was like, never again.
905?
Uh-uh.
With humidity, too, by the way.
Oh, it's your sweating bullets in there, dude.
Yeah, that's no good.
Yeah, 105 is ridiculous.
No, dude, I can't even stay in like a healthy for you.
No, like a sauna at that.
I'd have to get out after 10 minutes.
No, yeah, I don't think that's any good.
Have you guys?
Okay, sorry, I didn't think we had a segue.
Sorry, yeah, I'm out of ideas.
I was just going to add, oh, if there's other news.
I was going to ask something else about your guys'
as New Year's resolutions.
Yeah, let's do that.
And then, wasn't there one more news?
The only other news was the boring humpback one.
You didn't like that, right?
I mean, we can talk about it.
It's just not very good news.
We shouldn't talk about it if he's not into it.
Yeah, that's not really news.
No.
That's just some nerd.
It's old.
It's not news.
It's old.
That's probably the funniest exchange you guys have ever had in the podcast.
Make a drop out of that, please.
That would be a good drop.
Like you just play it when someone doesn't like something.
It's me saying it's not news.
It's old.
It's well for us stuff.
It's whales.
Just leave this all in.
What is happening?
Just leave the song.
This is what we do.
This is the BTS.
Normally we would edit this out.
Leave it in.
I think you should.
I seriously think you should just leave the soul.
All right.
So since it's already in, I do want to,
New Year's resolutions,
have you guys stuck to them?
Did we talk about what they were?
I don't.
If we had one,
if I had one,
I don't remember.
Whatever.
Let's say we didn't.
I don't remember.
I mean,
I didn't really make them,
but we talked about it a couple weeks ago.
I kind of started in February.
I quit.
I quit the Zen, which I stuck with.
Oh, wow.
And, uh, good on you.
Definitely, uh, reducing the alcohol intake even more.
That's a constant battle.
I did a good job with it last year where I like cut out to like have a glass
wine every night.
Right.
I remember you told me that.
And then once the holidays kicked in, I was right back to it.
Oh yeah.
So December was so bad.
I mean, I don't even want to, I, I'm trying to black it out of my mind.
What a piece of shit I was all December.
It sort of just happens.
It does.
You get inside, it's dark at 445.
You plug in the tree.
Yeah.
And you're like, I'm going to put my PJs out.
Oh, my God.
If you work hard the other 11 months of the year, it's okay to be a piece of shit in December.
Yes.
I feel good about drinking three cups of eggnog.
Yes, I just drank 1,200 calories of cream liqueur.
Don't care.
Don't care.
I work my ass off the rest of the year.
So this year, like, as is, I'm, I'm a.
same way. But this year I didn't have anything lined up for January to like jump on to.
And so all I did was basically do the thing that alcoholics do. And every day I'd be like,
I'll just drink and think about it. Like the next day, the next day. When you do that,
like, you subconsciously, like during the day, like, yeah, subconsciously, you start to get like,
it just builds up a mental illness inside of you. I'm glad you're old, you're trying to really
turn it around by carrying a flask on you, though.
That'll really turn it all around.
I haven't done it yet. I haven't done it yet. I'm preparing for next December.
But I, I've stuck to mine. I've been working out again, and I started right January
2nd, not the first, because that's ridiculous.
That's absurd. Yeah. And, you know, I've kept the weight down. You know, you started
call me Skinny Pete. I was back up to 225 in December. Dude, from 205.
That's not 20'd back on. I 20ed back on.
You 20ed up?
20'd up. Wow, you really were a piece of shit. Unbelievable. It felt just horrible. Got it back down to two,
I'm at 215 now, so feeling good, more energetic, happier. Forrest, what did you propose to do for?
I was just thinking about it. I told my wife that I would swear less. Really? Yeah. Why? Because I
I swear too much in front of the children. Oh, okay. No, I do. I do. Like, literally, and I realized that I said that.
and then this morning I called my son a little bastard.
That is brutal.
Well, it's not quite a swear, but I don't know.
I haven't been very good about it.
But I need to be.
Well, I just, I honestly haven't really thought about it until you brought it up.
So I'm going to, I'm going to be better about it.
What's the, good on you.
What's the worst thing you've ever said to the child or?
Oh, never to them.
Or in, in front of them.
I've said to Rhodes a couple times stop being such a shithead.
That's not bad.
And Jess doesn't like that.
It's not that bad.
It's not that bad.
But I'll be on the phone dealing with some crisis wherever it happens to be, whatever it happens to be.
Yeah.
And I'm like, this is absolutely fucking unacceptable.
You know, blah.
And my son will be in the back seat of the car.
Yeah, yeah.
That's the stuff I got to knock it off on.
Kyle, what about you?
I don't have a potty mouth.
No, no.
I know, you idiot.
New Year's wrestling.
I don't think he listens to the podcast.
He was listening.
He was listening to Will.
Yeah, that's true.
He was probably overthinking it.
What did you do for New Year's, anything?
No.
of course not. I'm not a New Year's guy.
But I mean like did you have a resolution?
No, I never have one.
Have you been laid this year at all?
I'm not going to answer that.
Maybe he has been.
Maybe he hasn't been, but he doesn't have to answer.
Because you were a virgin last year, right?
That's true.
Except for your anal.
That's for me to know and you to find out, bro.
Kyle, get out of here.
What was your favorite? What was like a phrase that when you learned it?
Like, that's for me to know and you to find out that when you learned it when you're a kid, you're like, ooh, I'm going to dominate.
Dude, I have one.
Like, I'm going to crush people.
The bees knees.
Like, I'm going to hit people over the head with that one.
This is one of those things where I'm on the spot and I cannot get it out.
It's on the tip of my tongue.
But, like, I viscerally have one of these where I just was something I learned and said all the time.
I remember one.
What's yours?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, of course.
One was, you'd say someone's name and you'd go, she thinks she's cool, but she's, but she's,
she's snot.
Oh my God.
I do remember.
I remember my friend saying it.
I was like,
ooh,
I'm going to steal that and use it.
And I just went straight to the ground.
Remember that,
that girl,
Katie,
that I wrote on my arm.
I love Katie.
And my teacher asked me what was on my arm.
And I had to stay in front of the class.
Most embarrassing moment in my fucking life.
So I remember,
uh,
this is such a good description,
too.
Yeah.
My stomach hurts thinking about it.
So I remember hearing a quote that somebody said,
and I said something to her.
It wasn't exactly the quote,
but basically it was if you drink more Pepsi,
you look sexy.
And it was either said in front of her
or somebody said it.
Or somehow I made it so that I was in front of her.
And I said, oh, she must drink a lot of Pepsi.
I mean, again, like somebody said, like, if you drink Pepsi, you're more sexy.
And then, you know, another cringy moment, I said, like, well, Katie must drink a lot of Pepsi.
Wow.
You weren't real popular with the ladies in school.
Oh, no.
Yeah, but still.
No, it was more than fourth.
It was probably six.
The infatuation with her went on through like eighth.
So I started drinking, doing drugs.
Have you found her on Facebook?
That's the real...
No, she would never talk to me.
Let's pull her up.
Yeah, we got a find her.
Jesus Christ.
What's her last name?
I can't say that.
I got a good one for it.
It's not a saying, but it's more of a...
You know, when you were younger, you tap someone on the other side of their shoulder?
Oh, yeah.
Still do it to this day.
It's a very...
It's really good.
I did it to my kid 30 times the other day.
It's so funny.
Yeah, it's really good.
Kids are just so stupid.
It's so fun.
What were the things that they would say when we were kids?
like you're a monkey's uncle.
No, that's like an idiot.
I would say that.
I know what you're asking and I cannot
think.
Like it's like it's like.
Bring up either AI or Google.
What are you doing as a producer?
I mean, we've got to somehow give this conversation legs.
Yeah, no.
These all suck.
Yeah.
You're thinking more like.
Old fashioned phrases from my youth.
That was like a guy from 1932.
Like whose youth is.
I remember there was this black and white.
Yeah.
There's just kidding Matt.
I don't know.
I can say this whole.
name. Oh, the early bird catches the worm.
There you go. I never said that when I was a kid.
But your grandpa did.
All right, sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt. Go ahead.
There's a kid you do. It's just the stupid shit you do as like 12 year old boys.
But this kid had an old brother that was in high school.
And like, we had just started using the word jizz.
Yeah.
Yuck.
And like, he like went around to every guy in the class in our class and was like, hey, cool kids don't say jiz anymore.
They say spoo.
Spoo.
He missed the jizz.
And we were just like, whoa, like we're in on this cool thing.
Like, so every other word was just spoo.
Spoo.
That's so spoo.
You know, it's a really cringy thing for me these days.
I'm on Reddit a lot.
So there's a lot of younger kids on there.
And they'll post like screenshots of text messages a lot of times and these relationship advice, uh, forms and shit.
And, uh, a lot of, uh, women, like the girls calling their boyfriends like brough or bra.
And I just am like, just it's unacceptable.
Like if my kid did that.
I would be like, don't say that.
Like, that's embarrassing.
Nah, it's no good.
You know what I mean?
Like, like, bro, you got to check out this.
Or like, bro, that's not what happened.
That's not how it went down.
Brov, brov.
Like, you don't call.
No, it's no good.
Even if it's the guy calling the girl the bruv.
My son just a couple days ago, we were.
You don't, you know, that's stupid.
I honestly just didn't understand.
Not because you did a bad job.
But even at the, when I explained it,
because I could tell you didn't understand.
You still didn't get it.
Are they calling?
Other Reddit people, brov?
No, it'll be like...
They're saying, I was out to lunch with my bruv, meaning boyfriend.
I'm glad you...
Again, you asked for clarification.
It will be like somebody asking for relationship advice,
and they'll post screenshots of a text message thread
between that person and their boyfriend having a conversation,
and during the message,
one of them will keep calling the other one.
Kids are calling each other's bro or bruv.
Bro is fine.
No.
Brov is bad.
If you're my girlfriend and I text you, bro,
come on. That's not okay.
It's not okay. It's not okay. It's not okay.
I mean, my last one of these, because it's only one I can think of, two days ago, my son
and I were walking up the creek throwing rocks. And he goes, dad, if you fell into that puddle,
that would be sick. And I was like, where have you learned that? Yeah, he didn't know. It must
be school. But like, he's five years old and he's already saying things are sick.
Oh, yeah. I haven't heard that since I was like in middle school. Right. It's pretty dope,
though. Yeah, dope's cool, but sick. Like sick? No, I,
I'm trying to say how to say this without repeating myself.
Saying sick is cool, is sick, whatever.
It's awesome.
But I haven't heard it in 25 years.
Yeah.
Oh, right.
It's coming back.
That'd be sick.
That'd be so sick.
Bro, that's so dope sick.
We're old.
Kyle, how old are we coming off?
Very.
Well, Kyle, I mean, you're 17 and still in high school.
What are the new kids saying?
Oh, I don't know.
Brov.
The lingo starts really young now, like five years old.
It's ridiculous.
I think we've talked about it before.
You have like RAS and, uh, what is?
Oh, let's look some of these up.
Riz.
Riz.
We talked to Riz.
I even think Riz is now, this is old.
Like, I feel like that's out already.
Raz.
What do we got here?
Can you zoom in so I can see and just click on the shit?
Bussin.
Oh, okay.
Hold on.
All right.
Let's run through these.
I like this.
We've done this once before, but I feel like it was two years ago.
So we're okay.
All right.
Kyle's got the word up here.
You know what?
We'll do a bonus where we do a whole one of these.
Okay.
But right now, one word.
One word, bussen.
Bussin. What does it mean?
Yeah, define it. That's bussing.
Like, it's really good. That's cool.
Like, it's busy.
I really like it.
I think it means busting, but it's busting.
Yeah, I think it means like you're, you're transporting.
You're carrying. You're carrying.
He's taking it literally.
Like, you're busting someone.
What do you think?
I think it means you're broke.
Like, you're busting. You got no money.
Okay.
Amazing. Really good.
You had it.
Buson or Buse, a bus.
No, I'm pretty sure it's Bussin.
Oh, like items from Taco Bell often used to describe food.
Busen is a word.
Okay, listen.
Oh, it's from the black community as well.
That should be known because I do feel like there's a distinct,
there's a distinct difference between black slang and what everybody says.
All right, cut it out.
I don't know.
I don't think, I don't think it's like a bad.
thing. I just think there's a different lingo. I don't know. Okay.
Do not get that out. Well, you're both Dulhu, so F-L. I think I know what
Dulhu means. I'm not sure. It's from the black community. That must be known.
It says it right there. I'm just saying because, like, it's a subset of the entire community
is saying it might not be as well known. So Bustin might not be.
well known. It's the way you said it, dude. It was so funny. Oh, good. I'm glad. I haven't cried laughing
in a long time. That is. Oh, man, Kyle's losing it too. Good night, everybody. That's Bustin.
Oh, man. I got all the reasons. That's the funniest thing you have ever said. Oh, by the way, go to
wild times.combe forward slash info for the links to all the Bustin news. Go get our, we do six pot,
