Starting point is 00:01:08 We can't curse on this show? I think you can. I always see it written like that. Oh, yeah. That's because we don't want our ads getting taken down. Yeah, that's because Apple is corny. Social media is, you know, boundaries of what you can and cannot say anymore. They keep getting tighter and tighter.
Starting point is 00:01:22 Isn't it wild? And you're like, what? People bleep out sex. I'm like, what the fuck? Or it won't get into the thing. TikTok specifically is very tight, you know? Because of Chinese? I mean, there's a nicer way to say that, but yeah.

Starting point is 00:01:51 It really is right? I was so excited Well because I have a friend who is And I mean this in the most beautiful way She is the ultimate basic bitch And I don't have a lot of friends like that Because I'm a comedian They're fun
Starting point is 00:02:02 And I worked with her She's a former stripper and I love her. And she kept going to Tulum and it looked incredible. And I was like, I need to live this lifestyle. Yeah. And so I booked a trip there. Yeah. Speaking of trips, yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:15 So this trip was a couple days after. You had booked this in advance. I had booked this. With somebody else. This was originally a trip that I had booked with my best friend. You had a breakup? Tommy. No. No, my best friend. He a breakup tommy no no my best friend oh okay yeah my best friend tommy who was um he was in a residency to become a psychologist to get his doctorate in psychology and so he was in hospitals
Starting point is 00:02:37 and so when covid was announced he felt uncomfortable and like unethical leaving the country and i was like i don't work around anyone who needs to live or die. So I'm still going. And yeah. And I said, well, I was like, who can, you know, go on this trip? Who can afford to go to Tulum? Who can just leave everything?
Starting point is 00:02:56 Who might kill herself if she's left alone? Who has no, nothing, no one who loves her. And then I was like, we have no one who loves us. No dog, no boyfriend, no family. Yeah. Yeah. I, like, we have no one who loves us. No dog, no boyfriend, no family. So we just left. Perfect. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:07 It was two days. She asked me to go to this trip a day after I had a mushroom trip that was so bad and so traumatizing because I did it with a guy that I met in the ER when I was taking my friend Justin to the ER, ironically, because he was on a mushroom trip that was bad. You met a dude in the ER? He was the head nurse. And said, let's do mushrooms tomorrow? Well, no. I met him in the ER a He was the head nurse. And said, let's do mushrooms tomorrow? Well, no. I met him in the ER a couple months prior, and he was a former child soldier.
Starting point is 00:03:29 And I was like, ooh, tell me more, daddy. And yeah, three of his fingers were bent back like candy canes. But he was the head nurse in the ER, and Justin and I were enamored by him. He looked like Johnny Depp from Pirates of the Caribbean. He had all these earrings and jewelry on, and I'm like, who the fuck is this guy? And then we exchanged numbers. And then a couple months later, he's like, I grow my own mushrooms. Would you ever be interested in trying them?
Starting point is 00:03:49 And I, at that point, had only done mushroom chocolates. Very specific ones that we did at the Tool concert. Those were pretty powerful ones. Those were powerful. But these former child soldiers grow much more powerful mushrooms, turns out. Where was he a child soldier? I forget what country he told me. Canada. Probably. me, but Canada,
Starting point is 00:04:05 probably. Yeah, no, I mean, well, cause it's number one. He's Middle Eastern. So somewhere there,
Starting point is 00:04:10 the description as a Johnny Depp lookalike is, I will say generous because I walked in and I saw this guy. Oh yeah. You met him. I was like, I was like, maybe like Epcot's version of scarves. And that's about it.
Starting point is 00:04:25 If by that, you mean there was a red flag when I walked in, then yes. We were on Roosevelt Island, and then we ate them. So it was the first time I did mushrooms that weren't in chocolate form. They were like the actual dried up mushrooms. It's all the same shit, though, right? It's just like what it's in? Well, it did not hit me that same way. I feel like it did.
Starting point is 00:04:44 I started bawling five minutes in, he goes, oh, oh, this isn't good. And then when I opened my eyes and I closed my eyes, it was still a nightmare. And I was like, I'm going to die. Oh, the chocolate, I feel like is measured out more specifically, whereas with the dried ones, you're like, I just got to kind of like keep taking it. I don't know how dense this is. Yeah. Yeah. It gets your teeth. You just go like this and you just release another
Starting point is 00:05:07 fucking level. Tastes so bad too. Tastes really bad. Bandit, we do this every fucking week, man. You're either in or you're out. When he's out, he wants to get in. Yeah. Oh, Bandit. Just jump up on a lap or something, dude. Okay, so then you were like, let's go. I'm doing Tulum with you. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:05:24 because Justin had called Corinne and Wendy over and was like, Oh, let's go. I'm doing Tulum with you. Yeah. Because Corinne had, uh, Justin had called Corinne and Wendy over and was like, I need to leave to go host a party. I don't want to leave her alone. She might kill herself. Cause I was like, scream crying. I want to kill myself. And that's usually, that's usually a nod that you might want to kill yourself. And so they came over and then it died down. We ordered pizza. We had a good rest of the evening. And then like the next day, Corinne was like, Hey, Tommy can't come with me to Tulum because the world seems then it died down. We ordered pizza. We had a good rest of the evening.
Starting point is 00:05:45 And then like the next day, Corinne was like, hey, Tommy can't come with me to Tulum because the world seems to be shutting down. Do you want to go? And I was like, uh-huh. Wow. Yeah. I was like, you have like two hours to decide. But I was like, let me know. And then like 15 minutes later, I got a text.
Starting point is 00:05:58 I'm coming. Yeah. That's so cool. When I was all paid for, too. I was like, literally, all you have to do is buy your flight. You don't have to pay for anything else. It's paid for. It's done.
Starting point is 00:06:06 It's such a specific, interesting time that people who are like vacationing or doing something right at the beginning of COVID, it's such a unique, it's almost hard to remember. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:15 And we got to experience Tulum in a way that I don't think anybody ever will again. Yeah, it was so- No one was there. No one was there. Everyone had canceled and so-
Starting point is 00:06:23 Because everyone's like, oh, fuck it. This is my worldwide beginning. I'm not going.

Starting point is 00:06:29 who cares I honestly looked into it and I was like they're not going to be like and we're shutting down in 3, 2, 1 I was like they're going to give you
Starting point is 00:06:35 at least 12 to 24 hours and if so we pack up our shit we go to the airport and we leave or get in the fucking back of a fucking U-Haul truck
Starting point is 00:06:42 that's how people get in sure yeah two gals in Mexico fuck it you'll be fine oh okay yeah violence associated with that the only thing i even cared about was like our my oh you didn't have a dog yet so my dog i was like i just can't leave forever because my dog who had him um i guess harrington had him yeah oh what tulum maybe yeah i guess it was harrington yeah what was the vibe vibe there right then?

Starting point is 00:07:08 Let's have fun. Yeah, the people in Tulum weren't even very, they weren't masky or anything like that yet. That wasn't happening. There was no masks in the airplane yet? Yeah, no one knew what was. There was no masks yet. No masks, that's right.
Starting point is 00:07:17 You couldn't even get one. Because we didn't even know what the fuck is COVID. Yeah, because here's a picture of me on the plane, no mask.

So, I mean, we're having this ultimate you know as people who travel a lot and often have to wait in lines and stuff it was beautiful every step of the way we're like this is the best vacation either of us will ever have it really was because there was no people when we had a boutique boutique hotel right on the water because i had done it up this was the first expensive vacation i've ever taken in my life yeah and so excited to be going yeah and so I mean and we I got everything I got like the

Starting point is 00:12:33 yeah like old school basketball basically but they were played to the death and the basketball was concrete and it was sloped
Starting point is 00:12:39 like a skateboarding ramp so on the side and you would have to like a foosball it would like feed back in I guess and so basically you just had to play yeah, you would, it would like feed back in. Um, I guess. And so basically you just had to play until someone like passed out and then they would
Starting point is 00:12:49 kill them. Yeah. Yeah. They would beat to death. Yeah. We drank. What did we remember? Do you remember what we drank?
Starting point is 00:12:54 Ayahuasca? No, it wasn't. We didn't drink. That's how they gave it to me. No, it was something that a stranger mixed in the woods and then we go, I guess I'll drink this.
Starting point is 00:13:01 And then we were in a fucking bat cave and we're like, didn't COVID come from a bat? Yeah. We were held into a, what was the actual word? Oh, there's a, the cenote. Cenote. Yeah. You're going to know that better than I am.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Where you like dive in those. Yeah. So we went down on a rope ladder and then you go, you immerse yourself in water. And then like when we're in water, he's like, oh, look down and you can see the skeletons of dead bodies. And we were like, oh, and there's bats flying around the thing is so we signed up to do this excursion it was like incredibly cheap it was like 200 and we got privately escorted all over all day it was just christina me and like two tour guides and then
Starting point is 00:13:38 we also got like fish tacos like included in this yeah that's great but they didn't ask you your physical your level of physicality before. And you make the reservation on the phone. So like- You assume they're gonna- I mean, you had to be so physically fit to do this. Like we did it, but if it had been anyone a little older
Starting point is 00:13:56 or someone who didn't go to the gym, like you would have died. Or like a bum knee, you're done. You're fucked. You're done. What is this, long, long hike? It's so much climbing. We took a boat. We did a zip line. Kayaking,, long, long hike? It's so much climbing.
Starting point is 00:14:06 We took a boat. We did a zip line. Kayaking, zip lining, climbing up and down rope ladders. You need so much upper body strength. Yeah, to go be propelled into this cave, it was a lot of work. How far away from Tulum is that? An hour? Yeah, about an hour.
Starting point is 00:14:20 You go deep into the woods. Yeah, we just went into a stranger's van. Bye. I do hate tour guide or tours, but then at some point you're like, I'm never going to be able to get to this place without it. Yeah, we just went into a stranger's van. Bye. I do hate tour guide or tours, but then at some point you're like, I'm never going to be able to get to this place without it. Yeah, I want education. I don't like a walking tour of New York, but I will take like,
Starting point is 00:14:31 oh, are you going to take me upstate to Niagara Falls? I'll go with you. And when it's just like a private tour, then they get to know you and like that you're cool, and then they'll tell you more stuff. So it'll be better. He found a little spot. Her eyes roll back
Starting point is 00:14:47 and she's like, all right. She looks like she's dripping. What was the food like? It was fucking delicious. Really good. There was no need to make a reservation anywhere
Starting point is 00:14:55 because no one was at the restaurant. It was such, the food was incredible. A lot of fish. The drinks, the cocktails were really beautiful.
Starting point is 00:15:03 There's this one fucking cocktail that I got. It came in a box of ice. It was so fucking cool. Yeah, showmanship is very big in Tulum. So everything is a presentation. Sparklers, lights. Oh, wow. And you go.
Starting point is 00:15:15 In this box of ice? Yeah, it came in its own little cooler. Wow. The meals were so incredible. Dude, I love a presentation. And they were all about that. Tulum is basic bitches that, you know, make money. Even the beach.
Starting point is 00:15:28 They're having new casinos in Vegas for basic bitches. Even food on the beach is in a basket. We had breakfast on the beach every day in our own private cabana. Did they make this guacamole dip like right there? They made it like right behind us. Look at that breakfast, dude. Look at that fucking breakfast. So you just got pampered.
Starting point is 00:15:46 Yeah. Yeah. As the world was shutting down and suffering. Yeah. And so, I mean, this was the first time I had ever even like used the money for something not practical. And so it was very exciting because, you know, Christine and I didn't grow up with money. So this was like, it's like I'm like a kid with a bank account. This was an incredible experience for us.
Starting point is 00:16:06 And like, I've taken other people on vacations like this since who grew up rich and like the fact that they're so not impressed by it kind of breaks my heart.
Starting point is 00:16:13 Oh yeah. This was like, because to me, this was like, I worked so hard for this. The born rich suck. Yeah. They're never impressed
Starting point is 00:16:20 by anything. They're lame as shit. Yeah. New money's where it's at. New money's fun as shit. Y'all got your own forks? Yeah. They're lame as shit. Yeah. New money's where it's at. New money's fun as shit. Y'all got your own forks? Yeah. You're like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Were there like dudes there? Could you like get into anything? Oh, to like fuck? Or flirt or anything? No, I was still traumatized a little bit from my mushroom trip that I was like, I'm just excited to be on the shore. All right.
Starting point is 00:16:45 Yeah, we weren't. Neither of us were really. I think I was still dating someone at that time. But also, when I go on vacation, it's funny. Like, men and hooking up are the last things I'm thinking of. Interesting. On vacation. Like, if I'm in the city, I think about it a lot more.
Starting point is 00:17:01 But on a vacation, I don't think I've ever hooked up with anyone on a vacation. You just don't give a shit. No, it's just not why I'm there. I'm there to escape real life and stress, and to me, men is more stress than fun. Yeah. I agree. And also, Corinne and I both like
Starting point is 00:17:15 the educational elements of the trip. Yeah, we love facts. I like learning. Oh, yes. Hell yeah. The ancient Mayans knew what was up, and I wanted to learn about that. They had the calendars.
Starting point is 00:17:24 They had the calendars? They had the calendars? The architecture? Their psychedelics and how they integrated psychedelics into their life? What do you mean? How? Ayahuasca. Oh my God, ayahuasca. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:33 But they treated it with respect. Right. Yeah. Where is it? Up here, right? And there was this one, so the only bathing suit, when we went on this one hike, when we got propelled into this cave, I had this really slutty bathing suit from agent provocateur, uh,
Starting point is 00:17:48 that I bought for my birthday party. Nice. And it was the only one I brought on this trip. And they're like, okay, now you guys got to change your bathing suits to get propelled down to this cave. And I was like,
Starting point is 00:17:59 and I looked and I'm like, I only brought the sluttiest one. And then like, this is me. It was so much when Corinne was saying like, this is a physical exertion, this fucking little trip that this mini day trip we took. That's me coming out of the thing.
Starting point is 00:18:12 Look like a fucking melted candle. We were all, that's a cenote. Fucking bathing suit. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:19 With the slashes on the side. We all were like, my pussy's hanging out and the guy's like, huh? Okay. We all were like dying laughing. My pussy's hanging out and the guy's like, huh, okay. We were all laughing so hard because it was just like, you know when you just wear
Starting point is 00:18:32 the wrong thing for what you gotta do? Yeah. We were like, it's happening. You always want to be overdressed. Yeah. That's a far underdressed.
Starting point is 00:18:40 Yeah. It was really fun. What else do the Mayans do? I don't know anything about them really besides the calendar. Just ancient civilization. really besides the calendar. Ancient civilization. Yeah, the calendar.
Starting point is 00:18:48 Building and playing to the death. Yeah. A lot of things till the death. It feels like they really had a death wish going. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe that's why they got wiped out. Maybe. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:18:57 It's too much to the death. Wait, what did you hear about with the psychedelics with them? What did they do and how did they incorporate it? I just know that they had a lot of ayahuasca like ceremonies and stuff. That's all I really knew. I was a little like scarred from my mushroom trip so I was like I didn't
Starting point is 00:19:10 I wasn't inquiring much more other than what the tour guide let us know. Yeah. I think when we were in the woods maybe the brew that we were supposed to drink maybe was supposed to be
Starting point is 00:19:19 like representative of something ayahuasca like but they weren't actually giving out ayahuasca because obviously when you do that, that's a whole different. Yeah, you're not just going to casually do it on a hike.
Starting point is 00:19:27 Yeah. I mean, the fact that we even just let someone mix something up, and then they're explaining what it is, but they have a heavy accent, because they're like a woods person, and then you're like, okay, well, we don't want to be rude.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Yeah. Isn't it one of the shit you'll do when you're traveling with some locals? Like, try this. You're like, okay. But here in New York, like, I ain't going to talk to you. Like, beat it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:47 Like, free samples. Fuck off. Excuse me, do you have it? No. Yeah. Yeah. Everyone was so nice. And we're like, we can't disrespect them in the woods after they brewed.
Starting point is 00:19:54 You drink out of a fucking shell of a bottomed out coconut. That they got out of the dirt. Yeah. It seems really meaningful to them. So we got to go along with this. That's what you have to. That's what I did in Ecuador. Somebody was like, hey, do you want the cure for COVID
Starting point is 00:20:05 we have it in the jungle and we were like we can't they did they claimed to we're like how are you gonna like no I'm good you can't do that you'd have to be saying I don't respect you I don't think your life has developed as me so no it's the only way to say no to the cure for the worst thing in the world
Starting point is 00:20:22 right it wasn't a shot it was just a drink it was just a drink oh thank god shitty awful drink okay did Right? It wasn't a shot. It was just a drink? It was just a drink. Oh, thank God. A shitty, awful drink. Okay. Did it make you puke? It'll make you forget about COVID, maybe. And they gave us a bottle of it. They weren't trying to sell it.
Starting point is 00:20:31 They just gave it like a, and it's like, take a bottle cap of this every morning and you won't get it. Oh, wow. They really believe. Yeah, we did it. All right. We didn't get it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:20:39 We came back. Nice. We ran out of juice. Yeah, they had in the museums and down there they were saying how like shamans for ayahuasca were like on the level of warriors yeah they're just spiritual warriors yeah because they guide you to like your past lives or your future lives or wherever the fuck this trip takes you yeah god it's crazy they had that level that they are in when was when were mayans pre pre jesus That's a great question.
Starting point is 00:21:05 Yes, Jesus, pre Jesus. I think so. I don't know. I'm not a historian, so. That could be the name of this episode,
Starting point is 00:21:10 when were Mayans? Because we're not really sure. I don't know, but they didn't have a lot of tools. They had to build shit with, like, they had to like carry these rocks. A lot of rock on their backs.
Starting point is 00:21:21 So, you know, they're akin to like the Native Americans. Yeah. Do they say how they built the pyramids, unlike Egypt, where they're just like, who knows. So, you know, they're akin to like the Native Americans. Yeah. Do they say how they built the pyramids unlike Egypt where they're just like,
Starting point is 00:21:28 who knows? No, they just, they're a lot of carrying. Wow. Yeah. Like they were fucking strong. That's why this basketball game that they played,
Starting point is 00:21:34 the basketball was made out of concrete. Yeah. Oh, what do you mean? The basketball itself? I think it meant the floor. No, no, no. The ball.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Yes, that too. But the ball was actually concrete. And you had to throw it in a basket. It's wild. Like a large shot put, I would explain it as. Dribbling must not have been a prize part of the game. But they fought to the death in this basketball type game. Damn.
Starting point is 00:21:57 Yep. And it was an honor to die. They were honored to die. Some of these systems is like. Yeah, they really tricked you. You guys suck. You guys suck. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:08 What tips would you give people going there? It's hard because you weren't there in a normal time. Go during a pandemic. Go right as the world is shutting down because of a global pandemic is for sure. There was a lot of. Excursions sounds like one. Excursions are great. They were cheap as shit.
Starting point is 00:22:23 They were really cheap. Get a bike. I would say. If that's Christina. Get a bike. That's a good one. Excursions are great. They were cheap as shit. They were really cheap. Get a bike, I would say. If that's Christina, I would have never. You know how hotels always say, you can use our bikes. I always scoff at that because I'm not a bike girl. But Christina was very into the bike thing. And if she wasn't there, I wouldn't have taken the bike. But I'm so glad that we did.
Starting point is 00:22:40 Except for the one time when we tried to bike at night. And then we quickly panicked. And we're like, we we're gonna get taxied there's no rights we were gonna die we were gonna die in the woods yeah but overall
Starting point is 00:22:49 biking around the town was the smartest way to travel because the roads like people are going both ways beeping at each other it doesn't seem safe and it doesn't even seem fast
Starting point is 00:22:59 so it's not like productive more productive to take a taxi and where we were in Tulum is like the best we were right on the beach so there was just one dirt road with all of the hotels,
Starting point is 00:23:08 all of the boutique shops, all of the restaurants. Apparently in Tulum, there's like a more city area that we did go to. I went to it. You were mostly getting, I think,
Starting point is 00:23:15 like some kind of a massage done. And I walked around the actual town of Tulum where the people who- That's the business area of it? That's the people who are actually native to Tulum. They live there.
Starting point is 00:23:25 And so it's like, you know, they're selling goods. But honestly, the goods are just as expensive and the town's just not as nice. So I said, you're going to stay by the beach. Don't even go. The thing about, well, it was nice to walk around for one night. But compared to the more Soho-y area of Tulum, it's just like it seems more generic Mexico. And also, everything's just as expensive. seems more generic Mexico. Yeah. And like, and also everything's just as expensive.
Starting point is 00:23:46 So if you're going to spend a crap ton of money, go to the bougie part. Yeah. And I'm not even like a person who loves bougie stuff, but it was. Yeah, but half it's you want bargains. You'll be like,
Starting point is 00:23:55 oh, I got this shirt for $1. Yeah, no, and you're not getting that there. Everything is so expensive. There is bargaining there? Uh,
Starting point is 00:24:01 wasn't there bargaining on the beach? Yeah. I mean, you could bargain. I mean, oh, the people selling like, you know, on the beach, uh wasn't there bargaining on the beach yeah i mean you could bargain i mean oh the people selling like you know on the beach that wasn't as expensive but like the shops that looked very like kind of run down that you think would be cheap just as expensive i mean i got a notebook with a painting of donald trump on the front with in clown makeup and it was like 25 yeah yeah but i'm like this is hilarious is hilarious. Yeah, you'd expect that to be two bucks.
Starting point is 00:24:26 Or something where it's like, this is funny, a beach thing. Yeah, you're going to spend a lot of money. Damn, that's interesting because you think Mexico, you think like... No, they know Americans got the paper. It's extremely expensive. It is the tourist spot of Mexico. I would say Cancun is. Cancun, you're right.
Starting point is 00:24:42 Tulum's newer. On people's radar. Well, Tulum became the place where people who hang out in Soho or Beverly Hills, I feel like, go. And so it was kind of like, it was just not a place that I would have gone, but again, inspired by a friend who lives a much different lifestyle than I do.
Starting point is 00:24:57 It's like, Cancun is like the I'm in college or I just finished college. Spring break. Spring break. And there's this new class of like 31-year-old professional woman and man who are like, I don't want to stay eight to a fucking room. You know, I want to just, I have some money. I make 60 grand a year. Can we just go on a vacation?
Starting point is 00:25:16 Yeah. Tulum is for like men who wear fashionable hats. Yeah. Yeah. That's like a bracelet. Leather laptop bag. Yep. Yep. Yep.. Yep, yep, yep. Was it dangerous?
Starting point is 00:25:27 Did you feel danger when you were there? Not a one bit, no. Interesting. Not a one goddamn bit. Only when we went on the bikes that night, but that was our own fault. Yeah, that was our own doing. But the tour, even when we went an hour outside
Starting point is 00:25:36 to hike the Mayan ruins, that was really cool. I love seeing Mexico, Mexico. What's the rest of it look like? Because these resorts are in their own little world. It's not part of anything. And then you look at people's houses and you're like, oh, your roof is half there. Okay, shit. Yeah. That shit's weird, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But then you realize
Starting point is 00:25:54 tourism is such a big industry there. Exactly, so then you convince yourself not to feel bad about it because you're pumping money into the economy. I'm helping their economy. I mean, you are. And they're also the same. You are. To be happier with little and you're like fuck this is a night that's a nice spiritual way to live life that's true mexico people really seemed happy so fucking happy our tour guide was the sweetest fucking guy yeah and he and he
Starting point is 00:26:15 fucking he had he had two kids and a white like he was lovely he had the best stories to tell us and he was a dope guy but that's like what you're saying where it's like uh uh if those people grew up with even less money than you. Oh, 100%. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and they're just happy to have a tourist season. Damn.
Starting point is 00:26:31 That sounds pretty fucking cool. What was the weather like when you were there? It was perfect. Perfect. I don't even think it rained once. Yeah, I don't think it rained either. And when we did get out in time, I think like the airport shut down a couple days after we got back. Yeah, it was like one or two days later the border shut down. Were you like, I remember
Starting point is 00:26:45 talking to one of you then, or texting. Yeah, you were, yeah, yeah, you did, because I think you were thinking of maybe going. You texted one of us. Maybe, I was like, what's going on there? Yeah, absolutely not a goddamn thing. Yeah. Yeah, it sounds fucking perfect. And there were all these brand new restaurants that opened in Tulum, and I'm
Starting point is 00:27:01 like, damn, this is, we are. Empty. Yep. And the great thing was we were still trying to be responsible and most of the restaurants are outdoors or have a really before they knew about that though yeah but that's just because how Tulum is set up because you want to be outdoors because it's beautiful and so we were just like okay
Starting point is 00:27:18 well we won't go to like any nightclubs or like anything that is completely closed and we were able to do the whole time without ever going to a fully enclosed place. And neither of us got COVID on that trip. At this point, I don't even know that we knew it was airborne. Did we?
Starting point is 00:27:30 Like, I don't know. We didn't know that we shouldn't be in tight spaces. We knew that because I remember like discussing, there was like a karaoke night or something that we passed. And we're like, oh, we probably shouldn't go to that. Because it's like, you know, like, yeah. And it's like in a closed bar. It felt like not a good idea.
Starting point is 00:27:43 So we didn't do that. Yeah. Remember those innocent days? So many different things. And then the masks happened. It felt like not a good idea, so we didn't do that. Yeah, remember those innocent days? So many different things. And then the masks happened, and you're like, a mask? What is this mask thing? I thought you said it's not airborne. It was so different so many times. What was the beaches like?
Starting point is 00:27:56 Was it still water? Holy shit. It's up here, right? It's in the Gulf. Yeah, it was warm. It was like bath water, crystal clear bath water. There was a lot of seaweed and a lot of like, like the, like it was, I should have brought water.
Starting point is 00:28:10 Yeah. I didn't spend that much time in the water because I feel like it wasn't like the water. It wasn't that super like pleasant. I don't remember a lot of people being in the water. I mean, there wasn't a lot of people there. It was just people like on the beach. Cause the cabana was so nice and the sun was so perfect and warm. Um,
Starting point is 00:28:25 so we were just sitting in that. And then this guy behind us was like, you guys are going to get really bad sunburn. And we just got mad for a strange man for talking to us. Don't tell me what to do, sir. Cause he wasn't, he wasn't,
Starting point is 00:28:35 it was just a random white guy also on vacation. It wasn't like a person from Tulum. Cause if it was a person from Tulum, we would have been like, okay. But it was just a guy not minding his own business. And we're like, we left town.
Starting point is 00:28:44 So we didn't have to deal with you. With you, you idiot. This is the beach. This is where you were. Damn, it does look nice. And just coconut water out of a coconut. Like, fuck me. Fuck me up.
Starting point is 00:28:54 And so it's one of those where they just come around and be like, I'll have some fries, please. Yeah, and there's like a wait staff when you're in a cabana. Oh, do they have that? A lot of random dogs? A lot of beach dogs. Oh, yeah, there was some dogs. I like that.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Remember that when you used to play with random beach dogs? Wasn't that your favorite? And you run off like an hour away. You come running back. I was like, be careful. There might be some, there's gonna be some nudes in there. So I don't know where they're coming. Ari.
Starting point is 00:29:13 I'll stop as soon as I see them. I'll stop as soon as I see them. I'll stop, give me screenshots, send it to me. Conserve el espacio. Yeah, I love taking pictures of like a can of soda that's not there. There's a lot of things on the rooftop. So a lot of the, a lot of the places, even on the beach, they had a lot of soda that's not there a lot of things on the rooftop so a lot of the a lot of places even even on the beach they had a lot of tree top shit so a lot of stores yeah oh yeah because there was that one boutique where we you bought something and then the lady
Starting point is 00:29:34 was like do you want to climb to the roof and we're like yeah what were you standing on uh it was just like it's like a giant tree fort yeah there was a ladder in the shop and you could climb up the ladder in the shop. Oh, yeah. And again, it felt- These were all the things you could buy at the pharmacy there. Yeah, it felt like a thing that like- If I was addicted to painkillers, I would have the best time of my life.
Starting point is 00:29:53 Painkillers, diet pills. Sustanon? What is that? I don't know. Amoxicillin? I've heard of that. Yeah. I feel like it's-
Starting point is 00:29:59 That's just like regular antibiotic. Motrin? Why even listen? Who gives a shit? Yeah. Cialis? Soma? That's a good? Cialis. Soma. That's a good fun one.
Starting point is 00:30:06 Soma's a downer, I think. You're supposed to take it with like a couple drinks. I wish I had known this stuff. Really get close with suicide. They were big in San Diego. Oh, shit. Yeah. Back then.
Starting point is 00:30:19 Z-Pak. That's for food disorder. Not food disorder. That's like if you have a cold coming on and you take a Z-Pak. Oh, really? Yeah, because my friend's really big into those. See, when I'm in other countries, I just get medicine for UTIs and yeast infections
Starting point is 00:30:32 because usually you have to go to the OBGYN for that. Human growth hormone. Yeah. Hey, American Express accepted. Yeah. Damn. Yeah. Damn.
Starting point is 00:30:43 It's funny. Dude, I took Z-Packs for that. I remember they'd say when you have upset stomach, not upset, but food poisoning. Oh, you can do a Z-Pack for that too. And then Joe List got it when he was visiting me in Ecuador. And I was like, oh, I have a Z-Pack. You should take that one a day. And then he got home and his doctor was like, never listen to Ari.
Starting point is 00:31:01 No, you should not have done that. That's so funny. Oh, really? Did it fuck him up? Yeah. Yeah, because I was like, I don't think that's for stomach. I think that was not, you should not have done that. That's so funny. really? Did it fuck him up? Yeah. Yeah, because I was like, I don't think that's for stomach.
Starting point is 00:31:07 I think that's for cold. Yeah. In the future, just don't go to your comedian friends for medical treatments. For all your wellness needs. Damn. Also,
Starting point is 00:31:16 the Mayans were very little, so this is one of the tunnels. This is one of the tunnels. They were like short and tiny. Interesting. Yeah. You ever hear of psychogeography? No.
Starting point is 00:31:24 What's that? It's something that makes you move around a place. Oh. So if it. You ever hear of psychogeography? No. What's that? It's something that makes you move around a place. Oh. So if it's like history, it's one of the things. You know? I want to learn about those. Oh, this was the basket. This was one of the baskets for the game.
Starting point is 00:31:35 It looked like a- It's on a pyramid? Yeah, it's on. The whole game is played on a slant. And you have to get the ball through that thing. It looks like a Ouija board thing. Is the course, whatever, the field up there? It's a course. Or is it down here and you have to get the bat the ball through that thing it looks like a ouija board thing is that is the course whatever the field up there or is it down here and you gotta run up it's like a skateboard ramp almost so most people would be on the bottom here bottom and on the
Starting point is 00:31:53 sides you're running off the sides and yeah and there's guards there's like a you know the there's gotta be strategy yeah wow damn that i would i would want them to put one of those games on. Like, not to be deaf, but I want to see how it's played. Yeah. How long are you guys there for? Five days? Yeah, about five days. I think.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Yeah. Is that enough time or not really? It must have been every day we were like, should we go home today? Should we go home today? Kind of. It's getting worse. You must have been hearing reports. It was fun to watch everyone freak out from Tulum
Starting point is 00:32:25 yeah we weren't I felt a little bit guilty but we weren't I did not but we weren't guilty for what what are you gonna do come home and help
Starting point is 00:32:34 your presence makes it worse for everybody you know what I did feel guilty so I started buying people groceries from the hotel room that's right
Starting point is 00:32:41 I bought people like $5,000 in groceries people from America yeah yeah like people who didn't have money I mean I was gonna do it anyway but I was like I was like I can't just the hotel room. That's right. I bought people like $5,000 in groceries. People from America? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like people who didn't have money. I mean,
Starting point is 00:32:47 I was going to do it anyway, but I was like, I was like, I can't just justify this. So I did start doing some charity work. But I, I had no guilt.
Starting point is 00:32:56 Zero. But also, I think five days was enough because I don't know, like, you know, when you're like, when it's a real relaxing vacation,
Starting point is 00:33:03 we saw everything though. And also, we didn't need as much time because everything took less time because there was no one there. Oh, right. So no lines. Exactly. Zero lines.
Starting point is 00:33:11 What is this? Yeah, so this is like an altar, an altar type thing for a ceremony. That's where he concocted the- When I picture Tulum, I picture the beach, but it seems like it's right next to the jungle. Well, so this is where the Mayan ruins are.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Yeah. It's jungle and beach. The jungle leads up to the beach. Can I just say how fucking great the iPhone is? Yeah, it is. It's awesome. These are the best pictures I've ever seen in my life. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Yeah. And then apparently this was crocodile infested waters that they wanted us to kayak. You did, though. Yeah. Yeah, we did. Did you see any crocs? No. I was bummed, but we saw a lot of wild monkeys.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Yeah, there's a lot of monkeys. They're so freaking cute. Did you see the howler monkeys? The ones that really get loud? I saw the howler ones in Costa Rica. I don't know if we saw them in Tulum. Yeah, there's a lot of monkeys. They're so freaking cute. Did you see the howler monkeys? The ones that really get loud. I saw the howler ones in Costa Rica. I don't know if we saw them in Tulum. The dick is kind of an innie. The balls are-
Starting point is 00:33:50 It's like a guy's dick. Yeah. It's like a guy's dick. It looks like a guy's dick. It's almost like we're related. Yeah. Yeah, there's a lot of dick and ball shots of monkeys. Would you go back, first of all, I guess?
Starting point is 00:34:04 Man, I guess, man, I really enjoyed it. I love it. But I, I, I like, I would just go to a new place because that's my, always my thought.
Starting point is 00:34:11 I want to go back to a new place. And then I went to the trip I went on after cause COVID was still happening. And so we, you don't have a lot of options. I went to Costa Rica the year after, um, for my, for my birthday a year ago.
Starting point is 00:34:23 And then going to Costa Rica after going to Tulum I think I would I would probably go back to Costa Rica because number one Tulum would never be as good because I could tell I would I could tell by the description of the people that go to Tulum that I would have absolutely hated them and so it really worked out and then going to Costa Rica Costa Rica is just a little it has a very similar feel to Tulum, but is a lot more focused on animals and wildlife. Costa Rica. It's all about nature. And so to me, and that's why I went.
Starting point is 00:34:50 And so to me, if I was going to go back to a similar place, I would probably go to Costa Rica. But Tulum, I have truly perfect memories of. Yeah. Also, it's like you're never going to beat that time there. You're not going to. This is one of the things. I took a screenshot of this post from Instagram while we were in Tulum. Because no one knew what COVID was yet
Starting point is 00:35:05 People Magazine and it was just this old man in an old folks home on the other side of the window looks like his kid in order to protect her grandfather's health this granddaughter
Starting point is 00:35:13 had to get creative when it came to telling her about her engagement tap the link in our bio for the full story and we're just reading all these people not being able to
Starting point is 00:35:20 be together and I'm like can I get my pancakes now in Tulum thank you so that was a little weird dude I did the same thing when I was in Ecuador during January 6th oh shit not being able to be together. And I'm like, can I get my pancakes now in Tulum? Thank you. So that was a little weird. Dude, I did the same thing when I was in Ecuador during January 6th. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Yeah, and I'm lying on a hammock smoking a cigar. And all of a sudden, my phone starts blowing up. Like, are you seeing this? I'm like, what do you mean? Like this? This great scenery? Yeah, yeah, yeah. The best time of my life.
Starting point is 00:35:39 You just hear people screaming, but it doesn't go in? Yeah, right, right, right. Was it like that? Where you're like, I can feel you guys are upset. i'm not feeling i am oh thousands of miles away i just knew that i was i was gonna have to go back to real life and i was like i'm here i gotta enjoy this while i'm here yeah and it was great great food great nature great educational experiences yeah and i was coming off like a really like i like christina was going through it i was coming off like a really like like Christina was going through it. I was just like I was really like burned out, I think, by that time, which is why I ended up enjoying the quarantine so much because I just had so much on my plate. And I remember like a couple of days before we left, I was I was looking at my workload and I'm going, I don't know how I'm going to get all of this done.
Starting point is 00:36:19 I just don't know how physically I'm going to get all of this done. And then I go, I don't have to do any of it now. Yeah, it was so great. It just made everyone take a vacation. It was so necessary. And you didn't have the feeling of like, well, I'll fall behind. You're like, finally now you won't. And you can't have FOMO if you tried because nothing was happening. Nothing except Mark Norman's touring schedule. It was chock full of dates.
Starting point is 00:36:39 Well, in retrospect, I was like, oh, I guess I could have been becoming TikTok famous. But I'm glad I didn't know the time because it forced me to take a break. Yeah. Why not? I mean. Yeah, we could have used. Yeah, you could use the. We could have really been making some videos, but it's fine.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Hindsight, man. You know, I truly remember the quarantine as in my it's one of the best like periods of time in my adult life that I was able to spend. Because then right after we got back from Saloom, I got a puppy and I was like, oh, the best. Yeah. There was so many people as long as you're not one of those people
Starting point is 00:37:06 who are like I did it for six months I'm giving it away there was a flood of people going like actually yeah that was terrible quarantine's over you can have this back
Starting point is 00:37:13 oh that's terrible those people should be sedated well surrendering animals is even is also big like during the holiday time because a lot of people get gifted animals
Starting point is 00:37:20 that's why I'm like I always post like do not yeah that's a heads up gift you can't give someone an animal. My brother keeps saying my sister and her kids want a dog and we're like, Mike, let's just get her one. Yeah, if they want one.
Starting point is 00:37:32 And he's like, you can't. She'll be so mad. She's either going to have to give away this dog or she's going to be forced to take care of it. It has to be her decision. It's a big decision. It's a living thing, right Bandit? Are you guys have any recommendations for people go there?
Starting point is 00:37:50 Like what to do? Get massages. They're really cheap and they're really spiritual and they're really into like, you know, Reiki and healing and stuff. I had like, you know, they have like healers that work at these massage places, these spas and they are the most beautiful spas I've ever seen in my entire life. Just perfectly manicured like inner peace is their vibe in Tulum
Starting point is 00:38:10 and you can really you can give massages for good rates yeah and also like talk to the concierge because they really their recommendations were really good
Starting point is 00:38:18 and normally I don't like I don't like other people telling me what to do but here I think like they just seem to give a shit more at least you can ask for that I did that once in I forget where it was so French Polynesia that's where I was like there any good restaurants around here like yeah if you go down that road like like 30 minutes there's the restaurant we all go to yeah you can also say no to the recommendation but like of course they might know a good spot yeah on the take wait how
Starting point is 00:38:41 much with a quanto quanto questa uh my size uh about 80 bucks it was like a luxury massage yeah wait how much was the Quanto Cuesta Massage? About 80 bucks. 80 bucks? It was like a luxury massage. Yeah it was a really nice facility. Because you went back you went two times. Yeah I went twice
Starting point is 00:38:51 because I was like this shit is I'm never going to get something this high quality this low price. Well you got some kind of a sound healing in that stay right?
Starting point is 00:38:58 Yeah I got a sound healing because of Hot House. What does that mean? I just laid in this hammock while she just had crystal healing bowls and she just you know you rub the outside of the bowl with a wand and it makes this like this noise that just brings you to your knees.
Starting point is 00:39:09 Like it's so really people's intentions feel better when they're not speaking the same language that you speak. You know, so these could have been the worst people in the world, but like it just sounded like they were doing nice things because they were speaking. They seem pure. Yeah. Seemed more healing. Damn, that's cool. You got a bunch of them. Getting a massage right after a massage
Starting point is 00:39:28 is a baller move. Yeah, it is. It is. It's a high-level move. It goddamn is. It's a high-level vacation. I gotta feel better. Let's put some paper on it.
Starting point is 00:39:36 Jeff Keith told me he went to, I think it was Jeff Keith. I think it was somebody else, but he said he went to Thailand or something like that and it was like, he got a massage and they were like $10 there on the beach oh wow yeah and then he goes next day like massage like no no i got one yesterday and they're like massage and he's
Starting point is 00:39:51 like oh yeah right yeah for sure and he goes every day it was like you ready for me why would you not that's incredible yeah it's the cheapest massage you'll ever get yeah and i needed human touch like i haven't been dating anybody and i was i just went through that like major traumatizing mushroom trip, and I was like, I need someone to touch me in a gentle way, but that's not sexual. That's true. That's perfect.
Starting point is 00:40:10 Can I ask you separately? Tangent. This is the section of this podcast where we tangent. Okay. When's the next time you did mushrooms after that? Like six months. Six months later, and then you were like, I'm ready to go back in?
Starting point is 00:40:19 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Were you nervous the next time? Nah, nah. It was great. It was great. The chocolates that I have, I'm very used to them. I know exactly what to Nah, nah, it was great. It was great. I, I, I, cause I, now I have these, the chocolates that I have, I'm very used to them. I know exactly what to expect.
Starting point is 00:40:28 I, and I've done them. There's this, the person I'm seeing now, I do the mushroom chocolates with him a lot. And we all, we know what we're in store for. We know there's like a 10 minutes of like,
Starting point is 00:40:37 whoa. And then we're off to the races. Let's paint. Let's fucking, let's make pottery. Let's do some crafty shit. Do pottery on mushrooms yeah like clay that's great that concludes the section of the episode where it's a tangent
Starting point is 00:40:51 okay let's get back to tulum good tangent ari thanks thanks uh would you tell anybody stay away from anything like don't do this don't eat this type of food you know anything I got sick one day but I think it was just like the normal like if you I got I did throw up one day but I don't know
Starting point is 00:41:11 what it was from it might have been from like I throw up pretty easily though so I think it was like I was drinking like do it right now I can't do it I'm a man
Starting point is 00:41:19 look right in our eyes my eyes my eyes are like fresh I think it was like fresh beet juice because I'm very into fresh beet juice and so'm very into fresh beet juice
Starting point is 00:41:25 and so you know how sometimes maybe like the fresh fruits and vegetables don't sit with you well in another country so i did i just like felt it coming i like left my cabana i was like i'll be right back yeah went threw up in the room which was you know a hop skip at a jump it away and then i was like i feel better and then i went back and sat in the sun again and we stayed and we both slept in the same bed so we were really really like, the poop schedule was great. Yeah. Because this is a really beautiful hotel. It really set up for people going,
Starting point is 00:41:50 you know, couples. And it's a huge bed. Oh my God, that was the cutest move I've ever seen. Bandit. That was so cute. How about, show Christina some attention.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Yeah, because I was just going to stay with my, with my best friend anyway. So it was like a big bed. And it was like one of those rooms where like the whole. That's female privilege. The whole. Well, no, I mean, it was booked for my male best friend.
Starting point is 00:42:11 He's gay, though. The two dudes can't do that. Oh. You could. You could just get past yourself. Oh, yeah, no, sure. You don't do it on the road. Oh, yeah, sure.
Starting point is 00:42:18 We'd be fucking. We'd have to keep it quiet forever. Keep it quiet? We would get tortured. Oh, my God. Really? Oh, well, hey, you and Reggie
Starting point is 00:42:26 are going to sleep next to each other again? for being gay? No, I've heard of some guys on the road when they really don't have any money having to share a bed.
Starting point is 00:42:35 It's just not doable. Because, I mean, you have to remember for the first part of our career we were sharing rooms all the time. And even if we were sometimes sharing beds,
Starting point is 00:42:42 mostly two double beds, but sharing rooms a lot sharing rooms with separate beds I do remember that too where it's like hey you can open but like
Starting point is 00:42:49 I can't I'll get a place with two beds I'm out money if I get you a separate room I still do that with my feature if it's a really low paying gig
Starting point is 00:42:55 because I'd rather bring her than not bring her but I was like I can't lose money on this gig you know or I have to make some money and also honestly
Starting point is 00:43:02 it's like fun it's just like hanging out with a sister I roomed with Bert once. Last time we did Sober October, we were going to go to the Joker's Cruise the next day. So we're in New Orleans. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:43:12 And then we're breaking our sobriety and we're drinking a lot. I was like, let's just get a room. You have to shit and barf at the same time. I did barf at night when he was sleeping. And he slept through it. Honestly, I had a really, I went on vacation with a guy I was seeing
Starting point is 00:43:25 a couple years ago and we went to the, we were in the Catskills and we took Molly but it was like this pure liquid Molly and I had never taken it in that form before
Starting point is 00:43:36 and it was way too strong for me and so I spent my birthday projectile vomiting and then like just diarrhea-ing and he was like, but honestly like, it was a bonding moment. And plus you're a Molly, so you're like, ooh, I feel so warm.
Starting point is 00:43:50 It was also someone who was like, this is fun. They was like, you know when someone likes you so much that you're like, I can take a shit and it's not going to change anything. That's the best. That's insurance. That's a hallmark card. Shit insurance is a great hallmark of a relationship. It was that level. So I was like
Starting point is 00:44:05 I'm good we're fine damn we're I'm trying to think what else to tell me about Tulum what'd you guys get into
Starting point is 00:44:12 every day did you just hung the beach or yeah beach every morning like I would I remember like setting my alarm like for pretty early
Starting point is 00:44:17 because then I would just get up and lay down on the beach yeah as soon as the sun came up because why not
Starting point is 00:44:23 when you're in another country it's almost like you're tired. Go take a nap out there. Exactly. Get going and then get your coffee. Yeah, and the whole front of the hotel room is open, basically. As soon as you open it in the morning,
Starting point is 00:44:35 you're on the beach. Fresh air. The only thing you had to walk past to get to the beach from our room was a beautiful pool. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I had to walk past our private pool to the bigger pool for everyone that no one was ever in
Starting point is 00:44:48 because there was no one else in the hotel. Oh, and I remember the fucking snacks that came with the room were so delicious. We ate all of them. I don't remember
Starting point is 00:44:55 that maybe you ate them all. There was just like salty cinnamon sugary. Oh. And I'm not, I love snacks. I don't usually love sugary stuff, but oh my,
Starting point is 00:45:03 I think I ate all of them. You probably did. I can't snack as much because I have to be so careful about my weight, but yeah. I snacked a lot. I ate a lot of vegetables.
Starting point is 00:45:10 But one tip I would say is go to a convenience store or a drugstore to get snacks because I'm an in the middle of the night snacker because I smoke weed. And I did smuggle marijuana. Did you find?
Starting point is 00:45:19 I was going to say. I just smuggled it because I don't want to try to find marijuana. Vapes or flour? Flour. Wow, you smuggled flour. You roll it in a tampon and with tea bags.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Oh, I'm so good at that. Yeah, tea bags eat the smell up. Yeah. And then you put it by all these tampons and the security's like, ugh, okay. Does the weed smell like the tea? Does it pull in the smell? Yeah, when I take the weed back out, yeah, it smells a little bit like green tea. But that's fine.
Starting point is 00:45:38 But tea smells nice. Tea smells nice. Actually, it's a good thing to do with girls. Yeah, so bring your own weed. But if you get caught smuggling weed into Mexico, it's embarrassing. Wait, was I with you? Was this this trip
Starting point is 00:45:47 where we were in the back of a truck? Did we drive in the back of a truck at all? This is another Mexico trip that I was in. Well, we were, I think it was, wasn't it like a pickup truck
Starting point is 00:45:55 or a van that we were in? Because there was the two tour guides, the male and the female. Yeah, we were in the van when we did the caves and the Mayan ruins. Did we do one excursion or two? I can't remember. I can't remember.
Starting point is 00:46:05 I can't remember. I want to dive in those cenotes. I want to see what- Oh, it's amazing. It's really cool. It's wild. Like to know that there's like bones of dead people under you,
Starting point is 00:46:13 but then there's all these bats and you're, it's, and the only way you can get to the cave is propelling down. Wow. Yeah. Maybe bring your own goggles.
Starting point is 00:46:20 How do you do scuba diving equipment? Well, it's not scuba diving because you just peak up under enough that you can, you know, hold your breath. You're not going so deep. They give you snorkeling gear. But you should maybe,
Starting point is 00:46:29 I couldn't really see through the things that they gave me because you know how it has to suck to your face just right so you can see it. So maybe bring your own goggles that fit well if you can. I would also say water shoes
Starting point is 00:46:42 because the ocean was great but the bottom floor of the ocean there was a lot of shells and a lot of rocks. And I feel like I could have had a much better, more relaxed time had I had water shoes. That's a good tip. That's a good tip. Water shoes, I feel like, used to be very cool. I used to get them at Bradley's when I was a kid.
Starting point is 00:46:57 And they went out of style, but I think they are really stopping us for exploration. It's like the Skechers toe shoes, but you wear them in the ocean. That should be one of those where it's like, what do I need to know about Tulum. It's like those Skechers toe shoes, but you wear them in the ocean. That should be one of those where it's like, what do I need to know about Tulum? It's like, oh, bring water shoes. You won't enjoy the water as much if you have to like walk on the hard shells.
Starting point is 00:47:12 Yeah. And then also like really, yeah, pack like you're going to do some physical activities. Sneakers. Sneakers and workout gear. Yeah, Americans like underestimate, like even when I was in the rainforest in Costa Rica, I wish I had like an actual hiking boot. Oh, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because like when I was in the rainforest in Costa Rica I wish I had like an actual
Starting point is 00:47:26 hiking boot because when I think athletic I think Reeboks but like it's muddy and it's like you need actual I was gonna do R.E.I.'s usually the best but like I was gonna go hike one of those ones
Starting point is 00:47:41 in Zion where you hike underwater the whole time and I was like what shoes do I need open toe sandals would do but like with a good one of those ones in Zion where you hike underwater the whole time. Oh, shit. Yeah, and I was like, what shoes do I need? They're like open-toed sandals with dual, but like with a good cushion. I was like, okay.
Starting point is 00:47:50 And then I was like, read a thing on that and they go, definitely not open-toed. You'll stub your toe. And I was like, show them that like, oh, I guess I'm wrong.
Starting point is 00:47:57 I'm like, can you help me? All right, REI. All right, REI, your fucking reputation. Yeah. Oh, that's weird. How was the fresh juice? Amazing i'm topics dude i love beet juice and it was so i was like i'll drink it i don't even care if that's what made me sink i'll
Starting point is 00:48:13 drink it again it's so good the food was really fucking fresh it's just flavor that like like the pineapples you have those down there yeah and they also like included like jicama and everything and i love jicama what's jicama it was It's the white one that has kind of the crunchiness of the inside of a radish, maybe. It tastes like I would explain it like. Interesting. I love jicama. Yeah. Even when we were on the excursion where we were hiking the ruins, on the way back, like
Starting point is 00:48:37 in the middle of the trip from the hotel to the thing, on the way back to the hotel, we stopped at like a side deli, like a deli, Mexico's version of a deli, and the food was so fucking good. That's the delicious fish tacos, yeah. Yes. And if you like ceviche. The fish tacos were incredible. Ceviche is a good place.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Fuck, I'm hungry. It's a good place to eat. Oh, ceviche. If you're into ceviche. I am. What, right now? Yeah, right now. I want this food again.
Starting point is 00:49:00 Yeah. Yeah, tacos, I'm glad that's there. Because you can see some tourist spots, we're like, oh, we don't actually do the local food, we just do like tourist food. And they had like, one of the restaurants we went to,
Starting point is 00:49:09 they had like different types of cuisine. I don't know if it was like a Thai restaurant. Yeah, we went to, what was it? Was it Indian? Middle Eastern. It was like some kind of Middle Eastern. Yeah. Because it was really ostentatious inside.
Starting point is 00:49:18 It was beautifully decorated. Yeah, and then you got, but you got sick in that one. Oh, did I? Yeah. Really? I'm such a sensitive stomach and the weird and the weird thing is you can't
Starting point is 00:49:28 you can't flush toilet paper oh yeah so you're just shitting you have to shit and put the and putting it in a way oh my god that's a great tip
Starting point is 00:49:36 just know when you go bring butt wipes bring butt wipes it's the new tip for Talu butt wipes because you're gonna have to throw them in the
Starting point is 00:49:43 do not throw them in the toilet because you're gonna fuck up all their plumbing and you feel so disgusting because you're gonna have to throw them in the do not throw them in the toilet because you're gonna fuck up all their plumbing and you feel so disgusting because you're wiping your ass and putting it in a fucking that someone else has to clean out
Starting point is 00:49:51 basket and it's gross and you feel so bad and there wasn't even like a bag in the waste basket it's just an empty and it's just like shit and you have to cover it
Starting point is 00:49:57 in like 20 different sorry you're like is there even a tip jar or something here that I can contribute because this is awful some kind of air tightness yeah this was the
Starting point is 00:50:05 Middle Eastern Mediterranean restaurant. This was like the entryway to it. Oh, that's beautiful. It was really beautiful. Yeah. They had these ornate dried flowers. It was like a hallway of dried flowers. Do you have a picture of your shit toilet? Shit paper? This was one of the recommended places from the concierge and I'm very glad that we went here because the food was
Starting point is 00:50:21 good even because I think we just ended up each getting sick one time but I think it was not necessarily because of any specific thing just you know probably drinking like you know because like you're not supposed to drink the water but obviously you're brushing your teeth like they didn't say anything against it
Starting point is 00:50:37 that's right you can't use it you can't brush your teeth you're not supposed to brush your teeth with the water you're not but they don't say anything and then you forget wait are you allowed to drink water there or not? Well, they give you bottled water. So they tell you not to. But they don't make a big deal about, like, oh, don't use the faucet. They do have the Ramada here, too.
Starting point is 00:50:51 The thing is, like, our cocktails had ice in them, and I'm like, are these bottled water ice? I guess it is. Right. Yeah, maybe it is. And then they don't, like, it's like, it feels like, okay, well, you should remind people. Constantly. Because obviously, like, I'm going to put my toothbrush under the water here if that little
Starting point is 00:51:07 can fuck you up it's like you got to tell people yeah your gut biome 10 minutes bro your gut biome is really sensitive
Starting point is 00:51:13 I forgot about having to wipe your ass and then put the toilet paper of your chunky poopy toilet paper in a wicker basket with no bag in it I'm like
Starting point is 00:51:21 girl I'm so sorry you got to clean this up I always found they surprisingly don't smell out of the basket that much. It is. Yes, I agree. I agree.
Starting point is 00:51:29 How could it not? If you have a nasty poop that's messy. You get a chunk. You get a thick fucking fudge. You get a little turd on it. Yeah, Christina walked back like she had come back from war, and I go, oh no, what happened in that bathroom? I wasted two rolls on my ass.
Starting point is 00:51:43 Girl, are you okay? Man, when you poop and you wipe and there's nothing there, and you're like, yes. Thank God. Yeah. That rolls on my ass. Girl, are you okay? Man, when you poop and you wipe and there's nothing there and you're like, yes! Thank God. Yeah. That's a lucky one. That's a lady in a tunnel. I used to take it with me in places. I didn't want to throw it out in places where people are going to be, so I would just really wrap it around and then take it to an outside trash can.
Starting point is 00:51:58 Oh, man. Like a pad. Yeah, exactly. Goddamn. I'm just too embarrassed about it by my bodily fluids. Yeah. Well, I mean, sometimes you get a chunky poop with some residue. That's allowed. Yeah, exactly. Goddamn. I'm just too embarrassed about it by my bodily fluids. Yeah. Well, I mean, sometimes you get a chunky poop with some residue. That's allowed. Yeah. Well, it happens. You can't help it.
Starting point is 00:52:10 Were there signs saying no flushing? Yeah. Yes. Yeah, that's good. Because they have to have Americans. And every time I'm like, fuck. Okay, fuck, fuck, fuck. I'm so glad I didn't have my period.
Starting point is 00:52:17 Do they have a bum gun or do they have just like a trash can? They didn't have one of those guns that shoot water up your ass. Like a bidet? Oh, like a bidet? They didn't have a bid of those guns that shoot water up your ass. Like a bidet? Like a bidet? They didn't have a bidet. Bum gun though. You know how in regular sinks you can pull the thing
Starting point is 00:52:30 with the cord out and like get the thing? Yeah, those always freak me out. Like in a kitchen sink but for your butthole? Yeah. Oh, that sounds like a good idea. I think one of my hotels
Starting point is 00:52:36 in England had that and I was like, I'm good. Bum gun. It's great. You really get in there wherever it is. I would use that as a sex toy.
Starting point is 00:52:42 Depending on how you would use it as a sex toy. I know you enough to know you would use that as a sex toy. That freaks... You would use it as a sex toy. I know you enough to know you would use that as a sex toy. I don't like water and pee, but I'll be right back in an hour. Alright, I got two more questions for you guys. Unless there's something you have not said yet about Tulum that you're like,
Starting point is 00:52:58 oh, we had to get to that. No, nothing's coming. Keep thinking about it in case. One, you got any travel tips in general? Research the places before you go and know what the excursions are. Know all your options because you could fill your whole trip with excursions.
Starting point is 00:53:13 They're cheap. They're always so cheap. I have never been to a foreign country, a country that's not America, and gone on excursions and regretted it. It has always been the biggest bang for my buck. You can get a 13-hour tour day for like 100 bucks. That is so worth it. Wow. And can get a 13-hour tour day for like $100.
Starting point is 00:53:25 That is so worth it. And you immerse yourself in the culture of where you're going. What the fuck is the point to me of going to another country if you're not going to understand, like, how do you live here? What's polite here? What's rude here? Like, I love all that shit. Oh, that you mean you research or that you're getting on a – That I get on these excursions because you just get a – you get a taste of the place. I remember going to the Coochie Tunnels in Vietnam
Starting point is 00:53:45 where they dig underground and fucking pop up and snipe Americans. And you walk through them and stuff. It's pretty cool. But on the way out there, they're like, hey, just so you guys know, we don't hate Americans anymore. We hate Chinese now.
Starting point is 00:53:58 Oh, good to know. Oh, really? Good to know. Thanks for the update. You've been allies for us for a long time. You're totally cool, so don't worry about that. And they're like, oh, now I know. From an excursion. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thanks for the update. You've been allies for us for a long time. You're totally cool. So don't worry about that. And you're like, oh, now I know. From an excursion.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So funny. Yeah. I think you want to do a half plan, half play it by ear. That's my favorite way to do it. Because you want to go in knowing this is a restaurant I have to go to. This is a site I have to see. This is an experience I have to have.
Starting point is 00:54:21 But then for the other half of it, I've gone on vacations that were too planned out where I didn't have any time to explore. And I think that's also a misstep because you want to be able to just have a day where you just wander around and you float into this shop and then you eat something from here and then you eat something from here.
Starting point is 00:54:38 You ask somebody, you see a lot of locals going into a place, you go there. Right. So if somebody's like, hey, there's this like festival or the next town over, you're like,
Starting point is 00:54:45 I can't, I have reservations at this place and we're supposed to go to this. You want to be able to go. Give yourself freedom to roam. Yeah. Yeah. That's right,
Starting point is 00:54:50 have a couple things to do, I like that, and then a couple days of like. And also, if the hotel has a bike, get the bike, it's always free and that's the best way
Starting point is 00:54:57 to just go at your own leisurely pace and just see what the fuck is out there. Yeah. Yeah, and like, ask a lot of questions and just be like, if you're on an excursion,
Starting point is 00:55:05 especially if there's not a lot of other people with you and you're more interested in something else. So like I'm really interested in animals. So I would just ask a lot of questions about animals
Starting point is 00:55:14 and usually they'll tailor the excursion to what you like because these people know everything. Yeah. And so if they start to get a sense of what you like, they'll cater it more
Starting point is 00:55:23 because they're excited to share their knowledge and also they're excited to share their knowledge. And also they're excited to not do the same stupid tour every single time. Also, don't get money out of the ATMs there. The exchange rate is will you? Oh, that's true. Yeah. We didn't have enough money.
Starting point is 00:55:35 We didn't exchange enough money in the airport. And we would exchange at the airport. It's the cheapest rate. They're not trying to fuck you. You know you're not desperate. You need this money now because you have to pay for that dinner in the restaurant. Can you pay with credit cards're not trying to fuck you. You know you're not desperate. Like you need this money now because you have to pay for that dinner in the restaurant next door.
Starting point is 00:55:46 Can you pay with credit cards or not really? You can, yeah, yeah. You can, but a lot of these boutiques, they really want you to pay with cash, which I get. So it is a place where I would bring more cash than I would bring to London or something. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:00 It's just hard getting from your hotel room to, I mean not from the airport to the hotel with a shitload of cash. And you can take out like, you know, let's just say you're going to America for the first time. You can take with you 60 bucks every time. Yeah. But you want 800 in your hotel room. But like that trip from the airport to the hotel room was like, fuck, I got too much
Starting point is 00:56:18 money on me. Right. Those are good travel tips, you guys. Yeah. Yeah. Get money. Where do you get money? I always try to get a little bit from the ATM, like enough to get me through, you guys. Yeah. Yeah, get money. Where do you get money? I always try to get a little bit from the ATM,
Starting point is 00:56:26 like enough to get me through the first day. Yeah. At the airport, no matter what. And they accepted American cash, I remember. Yeah, that's true. A lot of places will accept American money if you ask. They're actually happy. You just have to make sure that you're really good
Starting point is 00:56:38 and you get really fast at the exchange rate in your head because I think they also like taking American money because we always overpay. Yeah. Right. Yeah. When we pay American. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:48 You got to do you got to do like a hundred of theirs is is like how much of theirs is one dollar. Yeah. You know, ten dollars or whatever. And then like and then the reversal just like a number like two thirds of ten bucks. Yeah. And also in other countries, you can feel more free to talk to people than you are in America, which is because people are nice and they're friendly.
Starting point is 00:57:06 And they'll be like, sit with us, which is something I would never do here. But there it could lead to a fun experience, as long as you're safe. I wouldn't be like, you know, go with this group of strange men. Okay, you want us to go to your room? I wouldn't do that. I wouldn't do that on my phone, but we'll see. That is a cool traveling, especially non-English speaking countries, because they're interested in you from just like, where are you from?
Starting point is 00:57:26 Somewhere interesting and different. We don't get that in New York. Everybody's from everywhere. Yeah. But if you're there, they're like, tell me about your place. So it's just like a fun thing. Yeah. You can allow yourself, I don't know, like you said, to talk to strangers, which you
Starting point is 00:57:38 can never do here. No, you can never do that here. Nope. Ah, you can. You can. It's just not going to be met with the same hospitality. It's probably not going to met with the same hospitality it's probably not gonna go as well yeah I asked
Starting point is 00:57:47 somebody asked me for the time in LA at the comedy store and I was like no dude I'm good and he was like what
Starting point is 00:57:53 and then I thought he was asking for a dime and then I was like oh shit yeah no one asks for the time nowadays no you said I'm a pass
Starting point is 00:58:01 I'm pass on that well thanks last question you guys don't forget to check out their podcast. Guys, we fucked. Available every Tuesday. Every Friday. Every Friday on everything.

Starting point is 00:58:33 They do that. Anne Frank House. One tip if you ever go there, right below the Anne Frank House in the front is like a cafe. It's only up until 3 p.m. It's like a lunch breakfast place. Two steps down,
Starting point is 00:58:42 best grilled cheese I've ever had. Whoa. Find the Anne Frank House and then go around. Wherever you see people crying, it's like a lunch breakfast place. Two steps down, best grilled cheese I've ever had. Whoa. Oh, nice. You go to Frank House and then go around. Wherever you see people crying, it's like you're getting closer and then find that grilled cheese.
Starting point is 00:58:50 The cheese is a good comfort food, so that's a good spot for it. It is a good comfort food. That's a good spot for it. You just cry over the whole cross and grilled cheese. Wait, why Finland? Why is that on your mind?
Starting point is 00:58:58 Because I'm going to places based on wildlife and I also like to alternate hot vacation vacation snow vacation and so i want to go uh dog sledding and hang out with reindeer that's specifically why i want to go to finland that's a great idea yeah i like to all good at planning i had to go go tulum costa rica and you normally i wouldn't go tropical tropical but you know hot hot beach beach but i i just had to because of covid so i now i gotta do a winter one that's great

Starting point is 00:59:52 if I went for a warm weather Finland vacation. Oh, really? Yeah. No, I thought it was in the wintertime. No, that's what I think. I don't know. Because you're outside in those kind of domes. And so it seemed like I had to pick one or the other.
Starting point is 01:00:04 Because even in Costa Rica, it was Rainforest Beach. We ended up traveling, so we went both Rainforest Beach. Rainforest is better, in my opinion, even though it's pretty chilly. But yeah, it seemed like it was a seasonal choice for Finland.
Starting point is 01:00:18 I want to do vacations surrounded by weather events or space events, like a comet. A meteor shower somewhere? Yeah, seeing a comet. In the darkest place? That's cool. One of the things that's on my bucket list

And we experienced a place that no longer exists. That is a very cool, specific, unique thing. It's almost like living in Kabul during American colonialism there.

Starting point is 01:04:17 Reach out to them Let them know you had a good time Wherever you're listening Or watching right now Hit subscribe I'm trying to get up to 100,000 We already got over
Starting point is 01:04:23 35,000 subscribers On YouTube From 0 over 35,000 subscribers on YouTube. From zero to 35,000 in just two weeks. These have been fucking great for me. I love doing them. And this one really takes me to a place that no one gets to see. A tourist destination overcrowded with no one in it. You must have felt what it was like when the first Australians hit Bali. Where just some locals who don't surf.
Starting point is 01:04:47 Beers are 20 cents. We can just get gone. Dude, I went there once, and it'll be an episode. But an island next to Bali that I'm not going to say. I don't want to ruin places. You're going to see me start to bleep out specific places because I don't want to. I feel responsible to not ruin a tourist spot. This island next to Bali.
Starting point is 01:05:05 Bali's done. Episode coming on that with Mike Cannon at some point. This Australian guy said Bali was getting too crowded. And sure, there were seven of the best 50 surf spots in the world. But it was getting too crowded. And he found an island next to it with cheap. He bought a place cheap. And four of the best 50 surf spots in the world.
Starting point is 01:05:26 And he went there. Now it's starting to get known too. But he said it's like cheap beers, cheap land, everyone's cool with you, and just surf all day. I mean, that's the kind of shit that Corinna Christina found. You guys got lucky out there. Those cenotes seem really cool. I wonder if I went, since we did this podcast,
Starting point is 01:05:45 I went to the Yucatan. And I wonder if I went to the same Mayan ruins. I'm not going to say which ones I went to, but I'm going to ask them. Those cenotes are all over, by the way. It's when the asteroids, the meteor showers hit. I think it's everywhere there because they have all these exhibits about the dinosaurs. That's where the big one hit. So the Gulf of Mexico, you know where it comes up a little bit? That's a hole from a fucking giant asteroid. I'm not sure if that's true. But all the little cenotes are made by little asteroids just pummeling through and hitting the water table. You go to them and it's not like built up.
Starting point is 01:06:18 There's a little wooden staircase. And then you're just down in this swimming hole. It's badass. If you're ever around that area, find some cenotes. Doesn't have to be the tourist ones. Can be. But you should go by yourself. Ask your driver.
Starting point is 01:06:32 Take me to not the best one. Take me to where no one is. And he'll know one. For sure. That's my tip.

Every time a comic goes on the road, 90% of them, they're not giving you a fucking good show right after their special. Take some time. Write a new hour, comics. Write a new hour and then go on the road. Give them something good. Every time a comic goes on the road, 90% of them, they're not giving you a fucking good show right after their special.

Or do what Segura does and do some fucking workout shows at clubs where he barely charges anything and you're lucky to see him in a small environment. Yeah, that's right. Tom Segura's my new overlord. And he made me say that. And if he's in the fucking theaters, you can guarantee that it's a good hour. And when he's at the club,
Starting point is 01:08:44 it's not as good, but he's not charging as much. I guess that's it. Hasta semana después? That's not right. That's definitely not right. I got to do one in Australia, too. Maybe Nick Cody. Dude, let's do one somewhere iconic.
