Your Favorite Thing with Wells & Brandi - Aspiring to be Forgotten with Matt Shively

Episode Date: November 27, 2019

This week on YFT, Brandi is busy getting some D in South Africa with Michiel, so Wells sits down with the hilarious Matt Shively (@mattshively) who you may know as the guy who might be (but is not qui...te) Adam Devine. Despite being mistaken as The Guy From The Capital One Commercials, Matt is happily aspiring to be recognized yet forgotten in Hollywood where he has miraculously dodged STDs and doesn't have to live with the reality of winter. And if that doesn’t work out, he could really make his mother proud and get a job at Taco Bell. Wells and Matt also chat travel hacks (which we don't guarantee aren’t illegal), why Matt should have gone to college (it wouldn’t be for the education), and why we say “bless you” when someone sneezes. Also, LOTS of favorite shows, music, and books this week. Enjoy!  Thanks to our awesome sponsors for making this episode possible! Check out these deals just for you, YFTers.

I think it, maybe it needs to be raised a little bit. Yeah. Is that how you raise it?
Starting point is 00:01:39 No, no, no, I guess. Yeah, see, I don't know how this works. What kind of rock star are you? I have my roommate record everything for me. Really? Yes. For like auditions and stuff? Yeah. It's actually really funny because I'll just like do voiceover auditions. Yeah. And it's, they don't want you to do the full scene. They just want you to do each line. Yeah. And I hate it every time because I just think like they have people who are professionals
Starting point is 00:01:59 at creating voices. They really are only getting you for your name if they're getting you. Have you ever booked a voiceover audition? I have, but only because I was on Nickelodeon already and it was a Nickelodeon show. Yeah. Yeah. It was like this Italian fairy show called Wings Club. Checks out. Yeah. I was Prince Sky and I had this long blonde hair and I just rocked this midriff shirt.
Starting point is 00:02:22 Oh, yeah. Yeah. It was really cool. Is that how you picture yourself, though? That's how I want to, yeah. That's a projection of you in animation form. 100%. Yeah, I've done a million of those auditions for voiceover. I've never gotten anything.
Starting point is 00:02:36 Bless you. Is that a cough or a sneeze? That was a cough. The coffee went down the wrong way. Yeah. I have a thing that I think that you should say, bless you, for coughs and not sneezeses because sneeze is not indicative of you being sick whereas a cough is there's a good chance the sneeze your heart stops right i don't know i read something and by read something
Starting point is 00:02:54 i heard this somewhere and now i say i read something to sound smarter right that it was during the plague days that was like a symptom you'd sneeze a lot you were dead yeah you're like oh you got you got the plague you got the was like a symptom. You'd sneeze a lot. If you sneezed, you were dead. Yeah, you were like, oh, you got the plague. You got the black plague. So people would bless you. They'd say, bless you, and that's how it would start. Well, the things you learn.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Yeah. Matt Shively on Your Favorite Thing podcast today. That's your favorite thing. That's my favorite thing. Well, you've been good friends with Sarah for quite a while. Too long, some would say. Sarah goes, I've known them since I was 18 years old. Yeah. She says that every single actor I've met been good friends with sarah for quite a while too long some would say sarah sarah goes every
Starting point is 00:03:25 i've known them since i was 18 years old yeah she says every single actor i've met in la that's what she says yeah i've known them since i was 18 years old how many people did you meet at 18 but you guys met when she was 18 well she okay she met all of them though when she was like 16 oh really so she's lying yeah she's kind of lying to you because that was, I was 18. I've always lived out here. Yeah. And she hit me up one night because we shared a manager and she was like, I'm going to come live with you. And I was like, that's great.
Starting point is 00:03:53 And then she, three months later, booked Modern Family. And I've been resentful. But you've done a lot of stuff. What was the Nickelodeon show that you were on? It was called True Jackson VP. I'm going to be, have you ever seen that movie um wait no you raced through what the name of that because i'm gonna go back to it okay you you know the movie where it's like i i know it's it's the movie about all of the actors that like you know who they are but you don't know
Starting point is 00:04:17 their names no i don't know that movie oh it's a documentary about like all of these these day play actors that you always see in like big movies and stuff but you can never really put that that's what i'm gonna be yeah i'm pretty sure that's where my career is but that's not what you are now that's what you're aspiring to that's what i'm aspiring to be forgotten yeah by name but physically you'll know it was called true jackson vp okay yeah it was a nickelodeon show so i'm this by this time i'm too old for nickelodeon so i didn't watch it yeah i mean i guess that depends though on when you stop watching nickelodeon show. So by this time, I'm too old for Nickelodeon, so I didn't watch it. Yeah, I mean,
Starting point is 00:04:46 I guess that depends, though, on when you stop watching Nickelodeon because some people watch it into their 20s. Yeah. So were you True Jackson?
Starting point is 00:04:53 No. You weren't the main guy? No, no. My name was Ryan Laserbeam. Which also, could it please be your porn star name
Starting point is 00:05:03 if it ever gets that bad? it has to be that bad well i figured that's how i'll end my career so i'll start my career with ryan laser beam and i'll end it with ryan laser beam um no kiki palmer who's now like the host of uh good morning america or something with michael strahan yeah she was true jackson oh and it was fun i mean that was like the first job i ever really had and it made it to where I didn't have to go to college so that helped yeah a lot you'd want to go absolutely not my mom my mom knew I was like never going to go to college and so she was always like well Taco Bell's hiring down the street but she still to this day would like me to work at Taco Bell Taco
Starting point is 00:05:39 Bell yeah just for the discounts though I don't even think it's for the discounts she just knows that I like Taco Bell and that I'd be happy there. Yeah. And you don't face as much rejection there, but that might be false as well. There's probably a lot of rejection at Taco Bell. You made my burrito wrong. Yeah. There you go.
Starting point is 00:05:56 I didn't ask for fire sauce. I asked for Diablo. I want my butthole to be on fire. Well, and they give you a hundred of them. Yeah. Taco Bell is the only fast food restaurant that doesn't hold back on the condiments. Yeah. It's too bad you didn't go to college because I feel like you really, like at Arizona State,
Starting point is 00:06:14 you really would have flourished. No. First of all, I'd have at least four STDs. Yeah, well. I would have gotten at least four. You haven't been in Hollywood for the past 15 years. Yes, but I have a theory. I have a theory on the people who come to Hollywood, okay?
Starting point is 00:06:30 Okay. Gosh, they're like, okay, so majority of the people you run into are like the clean, very clean people. They're the cleanest people from the place that they come from. Okay. Does that make sense? Yeah, because that's what they think Hollywood is, is like all like vegan diets. Right.
Starting point is 00:06:45 And so they want to like start emulating that in the beginning. And they just care. People are so obsessed with the way they look. Yeah. And the way that they take care of themselves. Yeah. That like most of, you know, the people that I was hanging out with when I was younger, that age are, you know, oh, it's the hottest girl from this high school from Texas or like
Starting point is 00:07:04 the hottest guy from this high school in Texas. Like like it's always those guys so i think they're cleaner yeah so i think everybody starts out a little cleaner that's why you go to like smaller places and it's there's a lot of well anyway i mean like the fact that you don't have an f-15 stds i think is a testament listen i definitely dodged a bullet like just knowing you and like getting to hang out with you you really would have excelled in like arizona state frat system uh and that's not a dig on you no no i i agree it's i was weak in high school what does that mean so in my emotionally physically i was randomly it's weird because i was a drama kid but all of my like very close friends were into like death metal and that kind of music.
Starting point is 00:07:48 So like every weekend I would be going, it was the weirdest thing. We'd go to this, it was a Christian church, but every Saturday night they would hold like, you know, the younger, the youth could come and, you know, play their music as bands. And like my friends were in a band called Nine Knives. And it's, dude, it's all like scream and it was always so green christian rock no it wasn't even christian rock and that's what was so weird about it and there was always a fight there was always a fight because it was moshing and stuff and then you do like the wall of death which do you know what the wall of death is no so they in
Starting point is 00:08:19 a lot of death metal bands at some point in their show they'll do a thing called the wall of death where they split up the audience and they have them part like you know the red sea and then right when the beat drops or when you know they go into the drop everybody just rushes each other and is like throwing punches wow it's like it's it's like it's like the scene in uh the outsiders when the socas and the and the greasers go in the middle yeah that's exactly what it is so like we used to do that stuff which was weird because i was a drama kid and i didn't like pain and stuff so i was the weak one of the group and they knew that and they would always like you know pick on me or so i was that guy so i worry that if i did go to college i would have just been a follower and i would have
Starting point is 00:08:58 just like yeah i would have been like that guy who was always running errands for everybody yeah well that's just that's just pledging a fraternity basically. But I just imagine someone on the mic can be like, it's time for the wall. No, it was, it's great. Cause the music simmers down.
Starting point is 00:09:12 So it's going really hard. And then all of a sudden you'll just hear like, and everybody's like, everybody's like, Oh yes, let's go. And they all part. And then like the singer would be like,
Starting point is 00:09:22 and then it just drops and everybody attacks each other and it's ridiculous but it was so weird because it was literally in like part of the lobby of a church yeah the reason why i think that you would have done well in i keep on saying like arizona stakes i think that's where adam divine went is that where he went i don't know is it i don't know but you and adam divine you remind me of him so much like now getting to hang out with him a little bit and also like knowing his comedy also been really good for my career yeah he's he's he's helped you out he's helped me out a lot yeah my foot doctor i i hate feet things i hate the most feet yeah so i finally went to a foot doctor
Starting point is 00:10:00 because like i killed a nerve in one of my toes and i had to get it checked out yeah i'm sitting there and i'm like shaking because i don't like my feet being out in the open is this i'm barefoot right now i don't mind i don't mind if you have good feet like you have good feet and that's okay but like i think i've had i've been scarred by bad feet my whole life like one of the worst smells ever i experienced was in a gas station and it was a man who had like elephantitis and it was just elephantitis of the nuts of no of the foot okay of just one foot oh it was i've never seen anything like it it really disturbed me and take me through it me and brent yeah my buddy brent tarnal great walk into the gas station that we always go into to buy whatever we're buying and the second we
Starting point is 00:10:41 walk in there's just this just the most putrid smell i've ever smelled in my life and it was like what happened it wasn't like somebody had just taken a shit it wasn't anything like that like it was a different level like this is probably what death smells like yeah and we weren't sure what it was and we're like walking around like oh my god we got to get out like just grab what we need and get out and like we grab what we need we get in line and the bathroom door opens and this man walks out and he was you know very heavyset man walks out my eyes go straight down to the floor and it's just he had this huge from like the knee down was just inflated but then like it was it the the foot itself was like a gargoyle like it had cracks and like and then the talent there
Starting point is 00:11:25 were talons and it was literally like oh this is this is what that smell is and we both immediately like put our stuff down it walked out try to make it you know because we didn't want to embarrass me because like that would be terrible but he was with his wife too so it was like oh my god she lives with that like this is it was really sad but ever since then i just don't like feet so i'm at the foot doctor okay i'm at the foot doctor and he grabs my foot and he's holding my foot he looks up at my face and he goes oh and i go yeah and he goes you you're really funny in that capital one commercial and i was like and it took me a second and i was like uh it was right when his that that whole stream of capital one commercials came out for yeah and i was like, and it took me a second. And I was like, it was right when that whole stream of Capital One commercials came out for Adam Devine.
Starting point is 00:12:08 And I was like, oh, no, I don't know. He's like, yeah, no, it was really funny. And the assistant down the hall goes, no, no, no, no, no. And runs in and rubs around and goes, no, that's not him. And I go, yeah, that's Adam Devine. I'm not Adam Devine. And he goes, oh, I'm so sorry. All right, let's take a look.
Starting point is 00:12:22 But it was just like the worst like oh you're getting recognized you did a great job but it's not you yeah and you were holding my foot and so that was the last time i went to a foot doctor i also like the fact that of all of adam divine's credits i got capital one like you didn't like a man worker hawks is great yeah no no no it was capital one he was a much older man so i I'd imagine he's never seen anything else that he had done other than the Capital One, and that was just by chance. But I like to party, so I guess that would be really the overall thing is like I would do well in college because I would have been able to party, especially...
Starting point is 00:12:56 Yeah, and you're really funny. Yes, I think in the beginning of the pledge ship or whatever, in the fraternity thing, you'd have been everyone's little bitch. Right, by like junior year. You'd have been the coolest funniest best you'd have killed college is it too late maybe i don't know is it ever what is the age limit of being too late to go to college i i don't know we've talked about this before though what's the age limit for the cutoff of braces because adult braces freak me out well okay it doesn't make sense to me that people have
Starting point is 00:13:22 like those types of braces now when they're that age, when there's Invisalign. Yeah, I know. Because you can just use Invisalign. Yeah, there's something weird about seeing a four-year-old man or woman with braces full blown. I think the cutoff for college is also the cutoff for adult braces. I'd agree with you. At that point, it's time to learn other things you've already screwed your mouth up.
Starting point is 00:13:42 Yeah. You should have gotten that fixed when you were on your parents' yeah and yeah and so from that point on yeah i i'll agree with that and if you're a single man or a woman getting adult braces just buckle up boys and girls because you're in for like seven months of not hooking up with anybody at least seven months i had braces for two years oh i know so like that's like dude when i had braces i remember going to the dentist being like it's or the orthodontist i guess being like it's time for them to come off now yeah they look They look good enough. It was never enough.
Starting point is 00:14:07 And they were like, no, no, no, no, no. We got to get this one tooth up, this one in the size of this way. And I'm like, no, let's go. I almost got unlucky and they, because my two like fang teeth grew over my baby fang. Oh, you were one of those kids. I was one of those.
Starting point is 00:14:20 And I also had an underbite and they wanted to, they had, I did the rubber bands. And then they wanted to put this thing called a turbo on the like inside of my tooth, which would have stopped me from being able to bite all the way down. You're not going to believe this. What? You actually did that? Had them.
Starting point is 00:14:35 You had the turbo thing? I don't know. It wasn't called a turbo. It was just like a metal thing that went behind both of my, yes, both my big teeth. And so my bottom teeth hit it. So it made my back teeth. How long did you have that for? For way too long.
Starting point is 00:14:48 And I remember finally, like, one of my jaws cracked. And I was like, oh! And they're like, that's what we want to have happen. Like, your jaw would be, like, realigned. It was the worst. And to this day, I still feel the glue back there. It's not completely smooth. Yeah. What?
Starting point is 00:15:06 I know. How did you eat? I remember if I ate an apple, they were like fangs. I could talon in the things. Because I had these two hooks underneath my... Oh my God. I know. I would have hated that. By the way, we haven't started the show. I should probably do that. So this is how we
Starting point is 00:15:21 do it. I'll just do it because Brandy's not here. It goes like this. You're going to make fun of me, but whatever. Bros and Hoes, you're listening to Your Favorite Thing Podcast with Wells and Shively. That was good. Bros and Hoes. Yeah, we started with Boys and Girls and that seemed creepy.
Starting point is 00:15:42 So then we moved over to Bros and Hoes and that's just stuck. That's great. You know, whatever. You figured out who listens to this and that's like that's those people yeah that think that that's i mean way to be addressed to their yft years man to the to the death they got a name and everything you don't understand they want us to go on tour bro like i like like the live shows yes like people want that shit and i'm like like, no. You should. No.
Starting point is 00:16:07 That's kind of fun though. I guess. You just kind of get to go and talk. First of all, you're getting paid. Second of all, you're getting paid to literally just talk. Yeah. That's the best thing about like half of the stuff that you do. Because it's just you being yourself. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:17 I want to get paid for being me. I'm doing it to do the opposite. I pay to be other people. You're so unappealing that we want you to be someone else. Be anyone else. I three times a week have to go out to be other people. Nobody wants me to be me. Why don't you do the hosting thing? I've never understood that because I meet all you actors and actresses and I'm like, you guys have so much more chutzpah than I do. I'm like, you guys have so much more chutzpah than I do.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Okay. So I used, it wasn't until about two years ago that I became kind of comfortable with being, I was very much like an introvert extrovert as far as like, I didn't like being in groups of people that I didn't know because I would always run out of things to say. Really? Yeah. And I'd be afraid that like, it's like the whole thing. I hate talking on the phone because if there's a moment of silence, then I'm like, oh, this is uncomfortable.
Starting point is 00:17:06 Oh yeah. So I'm the same way with people where like, and so it's the worst thing ever because I don't do well in those places until recently. So I think nowadays I could probably do a better job, but I also did like, I hosted a thing on the, for the kids choice awards when I was younger and I hosted like a, it was like a tosh.0 show for nickelodeon that they replaced me with somebody else because they were more popular yeah um so i've done i've done those those yeah uh no so i've done those things yeah um i don't know
Starting point is 00:17:39 i don't know that this is like that though is like something that you just automatically you don't really think about what you're doing yeah It just comes out and it happens to be really good. Whereas like I, the moment I stop like thinking about what I'm going to say and it just kind of comes out, I say stupid things. I know, but that's what's kind of funny about it. literally turn away from me one time like like walk away i was like oh okay i'll never work for you because i was asking you're supposed to ask every time do you think you're gonna get slime tonight yeah and i'm randomly interviewing m night shamalan at the kids choice awards and i'm like so do you uh you think you're gonna get slime tonight and he's like no no not tonight and i went well you never know there might be a twist and i i like that dude he did not he did not like it really at all that's his shtick dude he went straight face and then he kind of like gave me like a what's up and then walked away wow and i
Starting point is 00:18:32 was like okay all right pump the brakes m night shamalama ding dong all right your whole brand is the twist at the end i will say this he was probably going through it because he was there for the last airbender and that did not do well at all and so maybe like he already knew the setup for this and how this was going to be bad for him yeah so i was just twisting the knife if you will i guess but whatever i'm nice shamala what's your end game what do you what is like the one hosting job you want like what would you want to do the most late night you want like like jimmy fallon yeah which i know i realized that will never happen why not because i'm not on snl that doesn't matter i feel like well conan o'brien he's a writer i feel like the feeder for
Starting point is 00:19:18 all of those is you get you do you do weekend update and then you get to do late night. Except for Kimmel. If Kelly Clarkson can have her own daytime show. I auditioned for that. For what? For Kelly. No, not Kelly Clarkson. What's the other American Idol person? There's another one?
Starting point is 00:19:37 Yes. What's her name? Catherine McPhee. No, she's Little and Southern. Little and Southern and Little and Southern is she one of the newer seasons Kelly Pickler that's right
Starting point is 00:19:49 Kelly Pickler it's like Kelly Pickler and Ben or some show I don't know were you gonna be like her right hand man yes I was gonna be like
Starting point is 00:19:55 the Ryan and the Kelly and Ryan see that I don't think you would have fun doing yeah bro that's every day do those talk shows do they do multiple episodes a day
Starting point is 00:20:04 I think they do multiple episodes on Thursday. So then you're off Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and come back and do it again. Yeah. But I don't know. That would get old. I think the end game is just to make enough money to be able to afford an au pair or a nanny. So I don't have to do anything when kids come. Hilariously, I think that's all the good.
Starting point is 00:20:23 That's her and I, Ashley and i talk about this all the time about the fact that like we just need to make enough to where we don't have to spend every waking moment doing it yeah that's that's i think the life hack someone else needs to raise these kids that's great you know that's great okay so hold on i want to go through we're going to do favorite things yeah we should find something favorite we're going to do we're going to do it but i want to talk about, just real quick, so you did, you were Laser Jackson. Laser Beam Jackson, yeah, yeah, yeah. Laser Beam.
Starting point is 00:20:48 I remember you from The Real O'Neils. Okay, well, that's, is that when we met? No, but like, that's when I remember when Sarah was like my friend, you're going to meet my friend Shively. It's like, oh yeah, I know that, I know that show. That's nice because like, you're one of the only people, I don't, I don't know if I've ever been recognized for that show. Really?
Starting point is 00:21:04 Yeah. Just for capital one commercials just for capital one commercials and uh my stint for lego bionicles when i was 15 okay well let's just just rip through your resume real quick for me started out tom sawyer on tom sawyer's island i told you about this it never went it went past and then i did a legos bionicles commercial with the all-american rejects which was really cool because i was they were my favorite then i did a Legos Bionicles commercial with the All-American Rejects, which was really cool because they were my favorite. Then I did True Jackson VP for two and a half years. Then my career took a nosedive. And everybody was like, he can't act because he's on Nickelodeon.
Starting point is 00:21:34 And then I kind of sucked my way through getting on to... No, I talked my way on to Paranormal Activity 4. And I did that one. And then I took another nosedive and I guest starred on a few things like Teen Wolf and stuff like that. Activity 4. Okay. And I did that one. And then I took another nosedive and I guest starred on a few things like Teen Wolf and stuff like that. Oh, cool. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:49 And then I got Real O'Neils. Okay. Which I thought once that happened, I was like, okay, finally, I'm not going to have to worry about getting jobs as much anymore because I'm now a series regular
Starting point is 00:21:59 on a network show. Yeah. False. Doesn't work that way. So if anybody tells you otherwise, it does not work that way so if anybody tells you otherwise it does not work that way and then i took i've done like a bunch of pilots since then which have been hilarious because it's i've been the lead and none of them have gone and i've never been the lead of really anything so it's beat me up a little bit okay you had a freeform show for about two months that's
Starting point is 00:22:23 that's about how long freeform shows last, though. Yeah. Yeah. That's the average. That's actually pretty good for a freeform show. Yeah, I did pretty well. I made one check. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:33 And then I've got The Purge on right now, and I'm doing American Housewife for ABC. And then I have an indie movie I'm shooting in a couple weeks. Okay, hold on. Who do you play on American Housewife?

I ended up watching like 350 videos that he had done along with like all of the compilation videos just every day. There was an eight hour day where I spent eight hours watching it. Wow.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Which I never thought I would do because I'm not really into the whole YouTube influencer kind of thing. Yeah. But he's like a great dude. And I was like, wow, I'm like, I love David Dobrik. And the day I got back from shooting that, I got a call being like, hey, American Housewife has, you know, this episode coming up next week. They want you to be in it. I said, okay, well, let me see the stuff. He sent it to me. And it's literally to play David Dobrik. Really? His name is different, but he's a youtube star he's famous youtuber he shoots his friends with paintball guns and he gives out like free stuff which is exactly what and i was
Starting point is 00:24:31 like this is the weirdest thing ever because i've never thought to watch any of these videos and then i randomly did for a week straight and now i'm about to play him so yeah that was weird they tried to get him he didn't reply wow Yeah. David Dobrik is too good for network television. I don't even know if it made it to his door. Like he probably went to one of his assistants and they were like, nah, the manager, his manager. Yeah. Is he your manager as well?
Starting point is 00:24:54 I just, I'm just like, I feel like this dude, this dude did something, but his manager manages like 20 influencers. Right. Yeah. And he makes 15%. Yeah. On it's either 15 or it's 20% of everything that they do. Wow. 20 influencers, right? Yeah. And he makes 15% on, it's either 15 or it's 20% of everything that they do.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Wow. That's a lot. Dude, he makes so much money. The manager or David Dobrik? The manager. For doing, like, I know he would fight this, probably say that's not true, but he does nothing. Yeah, well, he answers emails.

So, like, it's not dude it's wild it's wild congratulations on the american house housewife thanks man and then purge thanks not the purge well you haven't died yet on purge uh no not yet i haven't watched it yet i gotta watch no it's okay you don't have to no but i want to watch it's fun it's so funny as an actor you're there for so long and you're like, wow, I'm really working hard. And then, you know, I had this like my, the fourth episode I did was like my first real step into drama where I was like supposed to be bawling my eyes out. My brother was dead, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:25:54 And I was like, wow, this is going to be it. And then it ends up being, you know, a minute long scene and you watch it and you're just like, oh, they cut half of it. And this is okay. It's like, I spent so many hours doing this. I spent a couple of days like getting into the zone of like, okay, you're going to finally cry on screen. You better get it right. And then it's, it's just a, it's a blip.
Starting point is 00:26:15 Like it's so quick. Was that why you're watching David Dobrik videos? Yeah. Cause I had to come out of it. I had to get, I had to get out after. No, it was after I had to get out of it. No, I haven't. I haven't died yet of it. No, I haven't died yet. Okay, well.
Starting point is 00:26:27 And then your indie film, what's that about? It's called Mark and Mary and Some Other People. Is that really the name of it? Yeah. Okay. I just didn't know if you forgot the rest of the title. No, no. It's Mark and Mary and Some Other People.
Starting point is 00:26:37 It's Hannah Marks, who hilariously was on the first couple episodes of The Real O'Neils. She's like, she's blowing up right now. She's a writer, director, actress. But she wrote this movie she's directing it um i had to audition multiple times even though i know her really well yeah uh you weren't like hey dude just help me out all right yeah well i just it was it was funny because i like i had spoken to her on instagram randomly yeah and then the next day got this audition to go on tape and i was like to go on tape for this that's so weird i'm not just like so i put it on tape she reaches out she's like your tape's hilarious i want you to also read for the other friend
Starting point is 00:27:14 and i was like okay and then i get a thing being like so you're gonna have a director's session with her in a couple days i was like okay well yeah you know i improv'd and stuff a bunch on the audition so it's like you got a lot of what I did. And then the day I was supposed to go in, they sent me more sides and they're like, okay, and you're also going to read this. So I went in and did three of the same scene playing different characters back and forth, back and forth, which was like kind of cool. And at one point she was like, I wish we could make this twins. And I was like, well, that's sweet. And then I waited a week and a half to find out that I actually got it because they, they wanted to was like, well, that's sweet. And then I waited a week and a half to find out that I actually got it.
Starting point is 00:27:45 Yeah. Because they wanted to like cast around it. But it's basically just about new age relations. These people fall in love, they get married, and then they realize that like monogamy isn't really possible. So they want to open their relationship. Very much an indie film. It's the first one that I've read where I'm like, okay, this could get into festivals.
Starting point is 00:28:00 And that's always, that's one place I haven't gone. So that would be nice. All right. But I get to have a mustache. And that's really... Is's one place I haven't gone. So that would be nice. All right. But I get to have a mustache and that's really. Is that why you had a mustache? So I had a mustache. On Instagram? No, I had a mustache and I auditioned for that.
Starting point is 00:28:13 She was like, the lead was supposed to have a mustache, but he doesn't want to grow one. You would be great with mustache. I was like, awesome. But then I had to film American Housewife and shave it. So then I'm now shooting both at the same time. And I like had to go to American Housewife and be like listen i really want a mustache for this movie can you please give me mustache and they're like sure and the next day it was written into the script and i was like that's you guys are the nicest people ever so now i get to have a mustache i'm very

We went to Disneyland a couple of days ago for Sarah's birthday. Favorite thing, Disneyland. What's your favorite thing in Disneyland?
Starting point is 00:31:19 In Disneyland or California Adventure? Are they different? I think it's all part of the same park. Okay, but you can split it up. You and Sarah both know Disneyland. They'd be like, so where's the Galaxy?
Starting point is 00:31:30 And you're like, well, you got to take a left on fucking Figueroa Street. 300 paces. Yeah, well, because I'm from California and that was like my mom's thing was to go to Disneyland.
Starting point is 00:31:40 So like I went to Disneyland whenever, did your mom ever like come and take you out of school and like take you somewhere? So anytime my mom did that, it was to go to Disneyland. Okay, I went to Disneyland whenever, did your mom ever like come and take you out of school and like take you somewhere? Yeah. So anytime my mom did that, it was to go to Disneyland. Okay. That's pretty cool. Your mom's cooler than my mom. My mom's pretty dope. I've been to Disneyland a billion times. My favorite thing in Disneyland is Peter Pan, the ride, honestly. Really? I don't know what it is, but there's something like so nostalgic about it that like when I'm hovering over the city on that ship that's childhood for me yeah
Starting point is 00:32:06 so that's that indiana jones is great big indiana jones fan splash mountain also great but i think peter pan is the way to go guardians of the galaxy is definitely the best in california adventure now yeah which is crazy because like nothing really happens but you're not following the story at all you're just falling i don't really understand what they're fighting uh an octopus of some sort it's supposed to be it's the prison that they go to in the first movie okay they all like meet each other or uh get to know each other whatever and it's like the breakout of that i believe that's what the plot of that ride is supposed to be is your like gravity is just like turning on and off oh yeah really i think like sarah was telling me that first of all if the one of the greatest things in the world is to go to disneyland
Starting point is 00:32:52 with sarah because she knows disneyland way too well yeah and she like gives you all these inside facts and stuff and i didn't know that when you start Pirates of the Caribbean, the first pirate that you see on your left-hand side who's like drinking by a barrel, because they're all, that's all they, every animatronic thing is drinking by a barrel. But the first one. They're all drunk. They're all drunk. Yeah. It's supposed to be like old Jack Sparrow. And you're going through his memories.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Right. So I have a crazy thing for you now. Okay. And I wish I had watched this prior to going the other day. There's a show on Disney plus called the imagine nearing. Can't watch Disney plus. Cause you, okay.
Starting point is 00:33:34 First of all, of all, you have every device in this house and you're like, but I don't have the up to date Apple TV. And you know what? I'm not going to go buy it either. I'm, this is,
Starting point is 00:33:44 I can't wait. it's a hundred dollars it's a hundred dollars sell the Nintendos sell the other things go get the Apple TV but that's not the point why is it that the old Apple TVs don't have Disney Plus on it I don't know because it doesn't have the app store on it I don't exactly hey get that it's the same reason why when the new phone comes out the other one's. I know, but like this is bullshit to me because the streaming was supposed to be cheaper and now I have to have a brand new device. So I have to pay $150 or whatever it is.
Starting point is 00:34:13 But you're paying into it though. This isn't like some sort of an investment deal. No, this is not. Don't pyramid scheme me on this. Dude, the value of the Apple TV raises once you buy it. So you have to buy that. So now I need Hulu. I need ESPN Go.
Starting point is 00:34:29 I need HBO Flamingo. But you can get Disney Plus $12.99 with Hulu and ESPN. And then they need Netflix. And then they need Amazon. Yeah, listen. And then they need Pornhub. It's slowly just becoming cable. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Like it really is. And that's like, for me, I got rid of cable because I was like, no, they're just really is and that's like for me i got rid of cable because i was like no they're just they're redoing cable for me now because every network every cable you know everything is doing their own streaming thing yeah so it's like within the next couple years it's not going to matter anymore and network television like is going to be it we're going to be back to having channel 2 through 13 on your television everything else will be streaming well and the sad thing is that like for like me like i'm not going to be able to get like some random hosting gig on the tlc network that's going to be gone or or they're going to have full-blown like
Starting point is 00:35:15 categories of those shows for their streaming service who is paying for tlc plus no one is dude it doesn't a lot of it doesn't make sense okay so sorry go back to what you're saying the imagineering yeah there's a there's a show called the imagineering something i think i can't remember the exact title but it's about how disneyland was made and how it became disneyland okay and it's literally like a step by step like which is so weird because they have so much footage of it being built of what the first ride was how they all they came up with all the ideas and they explain everything from pirates of the caribbean like it is supposed to be a story from the time you and it says that essentially
Starting point is 00:35:55 like it is supposed to be a tale of like these pirates and you're like meeting the people who wrote the songs and like created the animatronics and stuff. It's so interesting and it's a really good watch and I'm really upset that I didn't watch at least the first episode before. Before we went? Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so that's the suggestion right there.
Starting point is 00:36:14 Yeah, suggestion. Yeah. The Imagineering something. Don't damper it. No, no, I just like to hit it and then slowly. Touch it. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:23 Everyone's so excited about this time of year and I'm going to go ahead and say I'm... Touch it. Yeah. Everyone's so excited about this time of year. And I'm going to go ahead and say I'm not into it. All right? It's a good thing it's only us two in this room right now. Why? Because everybody else in the world would disagree. Would hate me, I know. Because you got pumpkin spice blowjobs.
Starting point is 00:36:40 Everything. You can get pumpkin spice... That's the upgrade. It's the upgrade. You can get anything pumpkin spice now. Yeah. Anything. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:48 But you know what this time of year is? It's chap lip time. Okay. See, that's year round for me. Is it? I always have chap lips. So you hate every season. I hate all seasons.
Starting point is 00:36:58 But I'm also from Los Angeles. So I don't really experience the same seasons that most of the world does imagine if you lived in new york no i won't i will do no such thing i've been to new york during december and i don't know why anybody lives in new york during december it's hell or like chicago and i saw someone today it was like it's not the cold it's the wind yeah it's the wind that's the problem and i'm like yeah that's true i remember it was the like the first time i'd ever been in new york and i got out of the hotel i was like i'm gonna go check i was staying at like on times square because i was doing some worldwide day play thing and i walked out like okay i'm
Starting point is 00:37:36 gonna go adventure through times square and i got like 20 feet i was like absolutely not yeah it's the cold and i had i was fully decked out in all the heat stuff no didn't work it's not the cold it's the wind no it's fucking everything it's all of it it's all the things well It's the cold. And I had, I was fully decked out in all the heat stuff. No, didn't work. It's not the cold, it's the wind. No, it's fucking everything. It's all of it. It's all the things. Well, it's the smell. I don't, I'm not a huge New York fan to begin with. Watch out, don't say it around Sarah.
Starting point is 00:37:53 I know. She knows that though. She knows that I, that I don't really, I just, it's too expensive. It's too tiny. I, there's, I need my space. I would say my least favorite thing about New York is there's always too much scaffolding on like building. Like everything's being built.
Starting point is 00:38:10 Everything's being fixed up. Yeah. Fucking make it right the first time, guys. Yeah. Well, it's crazy too, because all of it got built and you're like, oh, they built that in five years. Yeah. And then the construction of it takes 20.
Starting point is 00:38:21 Yeah. Like the 405 freeway has been under construction for like 10 years i'm like at one point they created this full freeway and they did it in not that much time this is now we're at the point and they've already admitted they're like yeah by the time we're done it's gonna be as crowded as it was before because of population so i'm just like what what's the point yeah i don't like that i all the other thing i don't like about new york is the uh thing i hate about new york is that my because of the lack of space, it makes hangovers much worse. No, because the walls are closing on you.
Starting point is 00:38:51 Yes. The last time I got real drunk in New York, I woke up the next morning, had to go to the airport immediately because I was flying away. Flying away? Yeah. I was leaving forever. I was heading back home, and I got. I was leaving forever. Um, I was, I was heading back home and I got on the plane and there kept being delays and I was so hung over and I started having full blown panic attack on the plane. Yeah. And I felt bad for the people next to me because they
Starting point is 00:39:14 probably thought something was going down. Cause I was sitting there literally like sweating bullets rocking. And I finally, after like the third delay of backing out, I was like, I have a family emergency. I have to get off the plane. Really? got off the plane called the people i was with i was like yeah they canceled the flight i gotta i gotta fly out tomorrow so i got back into a cab went back to where i was staying and literally slept all day and even then i felt super uncomfortable because it was she's like oh i pay like four grand a month for this place like how many square feet and she's like oh 412 yeah like no absolutely not four grand if you're paying four grand for anything and you don't have a dishwasher what the fuck no or a washer or washer yeah no no no
Starting point is 00:39:51 well i gotta understand the washer dryer but the dishwasher thing i would rather have a washer dryer than a dishwasher really yeah yeah okay i can see that because here's the thing if i don't have a dishwasher i can still wash the dishes in my house yeah yeah i don't have a washer and dryer i gotta go down to some place and hang out there Hang out there. I hope that when I do walk away for a couple minutes, nothing gets taken. Yeah. And it's just, yeah, no. Did you guys know that your skin, hair, nails, and connective tissue are all made of the same stuff? Collagen? Yeah. And generally speaking, once you turn 30, which I did a while ago, your body naturally slows its production of collagen. A standard modern diet typically won't help either since
Starting point is 00:40:29 it's often lacking in well collagen. That's why collagen supplementation is so popular in the wellness and beauty community and why ancient nutrition created multi-collagen protein. Ancient nutrition's multi-collagen protein supports healthy skin, joint health, and a healthy gut, plus healthy nails. Instead of one or two collagen types, Ancient Nutrition's multi-collagen protein features five collagen types. That's a lot.

Speaking of flying, we went to Paris. Paris. We went to Paris. That's why you said au pair by the way that's earlier you said au pair i was like just bougie as shit france changed you man um we went shopping at like the chance de la liaison i don't know that might not be it but
Starting point is 00:43:40 i think it sounds something like that right Right. It's where everything is expensive. Okay. Right. It's like Gucci and Cartier. It's the Rodeo Drive of. Exactly. Of Paris. Cool, cool. And so their big selling point is duty-free tax relief or whatever.
Starting point is 00:43:56 So if you buy something in Paris, you don't have to pay the taxes on it. So it's cheaper. But it's not. No, not at all. But that's how sarah was justifying buying shit like it would be crazy if i didn't buy this i do the same thing in canada by the way really because canada's the canada is like it's like 60 cents to the dollar here so you know i bought like jeans for like 12 when usually they'd be like 50 it was ridiculous so canada's relatively
Starting point is 00:44:24 the same but they also they don't tell you they do like a surcharge on your card and stuff like that so it ends up being the same well and also like canada what's going on why are you selling your books for so much more than normal books right right 35 for like a paperback it doesn't make any sense what's happening are you sure like there's a bunch of trees up there it should be cheaper yeah to make you think that's where they get you so anyways they're like you know they're like don't worry there's there's a tax refund for you. They're going to love your impression.
Starting point is 00:44:49 Yes, they are. And so like, so we buy this stuff. She bought like shoes and a bag or something. When you land back at LAX, you go through customs. You have to declare something. You have to declare that you bought this shit. Right. So we do that.
Starting point is 00:45:04 And they're like, you got to go sit in that line that line and you're already because you've been on a long flight all right and then you go through whatever the first round of checking if i'm american or not and then they send you into this other line that's so long with way too many people in it right and then you get up we get up to the guy, we got a Russian police officer, customs guy, who right off the bat, I was like, this is a KGB guy, and he fucking hates us. We're screwed. He hacked our election, and now he's going to hack my night. It was that man specifically. It was that one guy.
Starting point is 00:45:36 So he's like, we were like, it's under $10,000. We don't, stupid Americans, we have no idea what this, what the rules are. But we're like, it's under $10,000. You always hear like, you got $10,000 in cash. You've got to declare. So we're like, it's $30,000 of stuff. So we don't have to pay taxes. And also they said in France, no bad taxes.
Starting point is 00:45:54 And they're like, no, you're a fucking idiot. You have to pay the taxes. So effectively we sat in line and then they look at the receipt of how much the bag and the shoes were. And then they look at the receipt of how much the bag and the shoes were. And then they calculate the tax. And then you walk up to another window. To pay them? To pay the money that they told you that you were saving. So effectively, you pay the exact same amount in Paris.
Starting point is 00:46:18 And you get the added value of hanging out at the airport for another hour and a half. Moral of the story, don't declare anything. That's what I said. I said, why are we declaring this? And she was like, well, we got taxed for being honest. Wow. So don't do it. And Sarah, like, she got a bag.
Starting point is 00:46:36 She got, what was it? She got some shoes and she liked the box. She's like, but I have to have the box. And I was like, no, put it in the bag. Put them on. Because if you got it in the box, then no, you bought to have the box and i was like no put it in the bag put them on because if you got in the box and then no you bought it yeah yeah anyways yeah don't declare anything you know how many times i've touched a cow and then three days yeah back into the country yeah i don't ever tell them i touched the cow i've never told them livestock i don't know what you're talking about do you know how many fruits and vegetables i'm coming back with that's all my suitcase is mango have you had a kiwi from
Starting point is 00:47:11 from luxembourg they're delicious um hold on favorite thing yeah so uh one of my favorite books yeah tell me is actually called a movable feast okay it's uh ernest hemingway oh wow and it's actually takes the reason i said this and the reason it came up i feel like i needed to add something to this is it takes play it's his he describes his life during the 1920s in paris oh yeah so it's all that So that would be, and I love that book because it's just, it's so simple. You know,
Starting point is 00:47:46 all they did was drink. Yeah. And smoke cigs. Yeah. I mean, that's all these people did. Like they literally woke up in the morning, had a coffee with,
Starting point is 00:47:56 you know, Bailey's basically, and then would go to the coffee shop to write and just drink whiskey. Yeah. At like 10 a.m. And then take a nice walk down the scene. Like, yeah. Is the scene in Paris? Yeah. That's London. No, it is whiskey. Yeah. At like 10 a.m. And then take a nice walk down the Seine. Like, is the Seine in Paris?
Starting point is 00:48:08 That's London. No, it is Paris. Okay. No, the Thames is in London. Yes, yes. So, yeah, I don't know. It just seems like such a simpler time. Have you seen A Midnight in Paris?
Starting point is 00:48:18 I've seen it. Don't remember it almost at all. It's Owen Wilson. Right, right. And every midnight he goes back yeah he's able to go back in time and he hangs out with picasso and hemingway and i would probably appreciate the hell out of it now that i've read that book yeah because of the fact that i would love to see that time but i remember watching it and not being into it at all yeah i just didn't pay attention
Starting point is 00:48:40 um so i actually i should write that down and go back and watch okay what was yours again a movable feast a movable feast yeah and i honestly hilariously i think it's quibi just like picked up yeah they're turning it into a show he says that because i'm going on an edition for some quibi thing today some quibi for the for the 400th product that they're making yeah before it's come out i got a new favorite documentary we started watching last night we ripped through the entire thing basically it's called the devil next door have you heard of it the devil next door yeah this is this about the nazi yes okay we started watching it i watched the first two episodes of that okay so effectively i'll give you guys the the rundown it's about it takes place in like the late 80s or the mid 80s and it is um a ukrainian man who works at the ford plant in cleveland and the kgb has released a
Starting point is 00:49:29 bunch of names of people who were nazis during the holocaust and this guy who worked for the ford plant is apparently known as ivan the terrible yeah and he is exactly that they had this whole court proceeding about him and they bring in all these holocaust survivors and they're like that's the dude and this is what he did and they describe what he did to a t and you're like well is it him is it not like he's obviously much older he's saying it's not him anyways i can't believe and i'm not saying this because i want anybody to die but i cannot believe that his lawyer was not killed. Got an American lawyer, and then he has,
Starting point is 00:50:06 the American lawyer was trying to get, he gets sent to Israel, right? Yeah. He gets sent to Israel where he's being tried for war crimes. Yeah. So the American lawyer's like, also super like not qualified for this at all.
Starting point is 00:50:21 No, no, no, no. He was like accidentally fell upon it. Yeah. Well, you find, there's a whole story about that beyond episode two yes about why he's his lawyer it's crazy okay but he's like i need i don't know like israeli law i need help no lawyer in israel would help him like who wants to represent like everyone's you know do due process or whatever a fair trial but like every jews like no yeah and there's this one guy who's like you're right like he he also he's like such the rock star
Starting point is 00:50:52 lawyer well and he's just a he's just a dick like you know he thinks he's great and it and the way he talks and everything you're like you're only doing this to piss people off yeah there's times in it where i'm like there's no way you can believe he's not that person. You have actual survivors that, yes, you're showing that they do have Alzheimer's, but they are looking this man dead in the eyes and saying, this is that man. So how can you think otherwise? While this lawyer is like, no, no, it's not. And I don't care what any of you have to say about it.
Starting point is 00:51:24 I'm going gonna make sure he's innocent did you did you see what car he drives no oh so that's coming up he drives a fucking porsche and everyone's like no one drives german cars in israel like not cool dude that's and that's what i'm saying like it actually blows my mind you know there's a lot of violence in that area yeah Yeah, I think so. How did that man not get murdered? And he's still alive because he's doing the documentary. It's insane.
Starting point is 00:51:49 Anyways, The Devil Next Door is very good. I started reading a new book today called Red Rising. I actually read half of it a couple years ago, and I didn't finish it because I'm a stupid. And so I started listening to it again. I'm a big Audible guy over here. Okay, so it's taking place on Mars. Oh, you like sci-fi books? I love scifi books okay big into it but i do want to read that um hand me my one it's very it's very short by the way i don't i don't read a lot
Starting point is 00:52:13 i first i really should and i because i have wanted to read it no yeah so long 1200 pages no um so i need to do the audible thing 100 i just like it just hasn't i haven't done it but yeah i for some reason i can't i lose you know it's like the add thing i just like i lose my concentration and i'll read like three pages and realize that i've been thinking about something completely different so i just don't read a lot yeah it's sad go ahead we all know mars going back to stephen king everyone that listens to this podcast knows but i went down a long and lonesome road of Stephen King books. I read like seven in a row.
Starting point is 00:52:46 Actually read them? Well, Audible. Okay, you did Audible. Yeah, I don't read. And Audible is just somebody reading it for you, right? Yeah, and it's actually more fun. Like the radio guy in me loves it because they do different voices.
Starting point is 00:52:56 When you listen to it in the car type thing? I listen to it. I listen to it because we're always in traffic on the 405 because they're still rebuilding it for some reason. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I, this is the crazy thing that people don't they are like what the fuck but i like to run when i go on my runs or my jogs i listen to books on tape that's because that's a weird thing it is
Starting point is 00:53:14 but because everyone that does like music kind of like gets them into a rhythm or whatever but for me when if i get lost in a story then i can go forever right actually i can see how that makes because i used to do that with podcasts. I would listen to podcasts when I would be doing cardio. But then it started to, I hate cardio, so it started to get very repetitive and there was no inspiration within it. So listening to an actual book, that would be hard. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:42 Try it out. To each his own. Yeah. actual book that would be hard yeah try it out to each his own yeah you know but anyways red rising is taking place on mars and it's about this kind of like class of i guess they're miners they're the reds like all the different classes are different colors like the top class or sect is golds right so the reds are miners and it's it's surrounded by this one guy who's a hell diver which is kind of a cool thing, that drills down into Mars to get whatever thing that they are mining for.
Starting point is 00:54:09 I guess if you're going to have to do that, you should have the dopest name ever. Yeah. If you got to go down into Mars, bowels. You better be called hell diver. Hell diver. So it's all about that.
Starting point is 00:54:18 And like, I remember, because I read half of it, but I'm rereading it again. It's got like a little bit of a Hunger Games vibe to it. See, that's when you were talking about the segregated uh yeah minor stuff that's i thought yeah district district yeah it's very much like that and i think what i think is is that he's on the lowest kind of like rung of sex and i think he's going to try to figure out a way to get to the top okay you know to to to rise from the dive to rise from the dive baby there we go
Starting point is 00:54:46 he's no longer a hell diver i have the heaven sore there's a question i have yeah that's not why you ring that but i'm okay i ring it because i wanted to change the subject really quick and ask you this is the one thing when you told me what this was yeah that i was like okay and this is what i'm gonna ask him okay you're talking about like your favorite music and stuff yeah you're very well versed in music okay you listen to a lot of different kinds of music yeah tell me why i should like country music i don't think you should i don't you don't like country music no i like americana music okay time out what yeah so what's the difference give me if you if you can example of like what Americana music is. Okay.
Starting point is 00:55:31 This is a song by Sam Hunt, who's a very nice gentleman. Sam Hunt, okay. You know? I'm a little bit of a fan of Sam Hunt. Okay. But this song offends me. And I'll tell you why. This guy's so good looking and having no problem slaying ass right that he is able to write a song that's equating a woman's body to a dirt road but for those people that means a lot
Starting point is 00:56:00 to them no it does that demographic i feel like that means like could you know this song is gigantic oh of course okay so i'm not a huge country guy but i do love americana let me play you an americana song that i think is cool so americana is more it's just like like kind of not popular country music right and it's more folky and i like see i like folky yeah okay so let me play there's something very kids boppy about all country music in my opinion well it's also very very formulaic right it's the most formulaic it's the same thing over and over that's why i can't like everybody's like you have to go to stagecoach you have to go to stagecoach now well and i can i can imagine the environment is probably more fun because it's just looser yeah okay so this is oh i see i actually i love this maybe
Starting point is 00:56:52 we'll get 40 years together but one day this is a guy named jason isbel who i'm obsessed with this is a song called we are vampires called We Were Vampires. Vampires and death was a joke We'd go out on the sidewalk in the snow And laugh at all the lovers and their plans I wouldn't feel the need to hold your hand Maybe time running out is a gift I'll work hard till the end Yeah, see, I love this. And effectively, it's great.
Starting point is 00:57:32 This is a song about saying that death is the actual blessing because if you live forever, then nothing would matter to you because you would never die, you know? That's my response. I like some country music. See, for some reason i i like and maybe it was when we were at disneyland you started oh you started singing thunder rolls oh yeah well i mean i love garth brooks garth brooks is good yeah i can accept that but i feel like he's good
Starting point is 00:57:56 because he was one of like the first yeah to do that whereas everybody then started doing that after and it was like and now that's all it is. Yeah. It's just over and over. I can't do it. Then again, I was raised with country music. Like my mom loves it. And so that might be part of the reason I'm not a huge fan. Cause I've just, it's been drilled in my head.
Starting point is 00:58:15 Yeah. Yeah. I just, I don't know. I don't, do you have good playlists? Well, so we've got one for this show. Yeah. I've got some good plays. I think you'd like, what is one of your favorite songs right now? of my favorite well i have to see i have to look that's okay i'm a huge bon Iver fan okay so i've been listening to his new album a lot or their new album is it
Starting point is 00:58:33 is it a they bon Iver is is a guy named justin vernon and bon Iver means he's got five other bands yeah he's literally got like five other bands. For sure. It's pretty great. It's from 2013, but I still listen to it on repeat. Foy Vance, The Joy of Nothing. That's an album that I really, really love. What song is it? You can play Close Handful of Friends, but just like skip through a little bit. It's on the album Joy of Nothing. I remember back in my radio days, Foy Vance and Vance Joy.
Starting point is 00:59:07 Yeah, it upsets me. Being back-to-back to each other. Yeah, yeah. It's so tough. Well, and it's brutal, too, because Vance Joy is way more popular than Foy Vance. Yeah. And that upsets me,
Starting point is 00:59:16 because I think Foy Vance is way more... I mean, I'm sure it upsets Foy Vance as well. Yeah. You know? I do love this dude. Yeah, he's fantastic. Yeah. It's funny, I have like a playlist that most, that most of my songs are on and it's
Starting point is 00:59:45 just titled new because I made it so long ago. And I just like a lot of the songs I find are on TV shows and stuff. Yeah. That's where I will take them basically. And they're all just in this, this, God, there's so many of them. The soundtrack for Euphoria. Yeah. Which favorite new show, Euphoria.
Starting point is 01:00:04 I can't get into it dude you can't can't do it is it because it's too much too much it's too much dude because i in high school i was i feel like i was the bad boy i smoked pots i did cigs and you were secretly gay and no no uh and i drank the beers right and i tried to have sex with my girlfriends my girlfriend all of them and and now i watch and i'm like i would have been a saint in this world there's a kid with face tattoos selling meth that's 12 years old yeah you know like i just can't relate to it the sad thing is though is i think that it's kind of like that no i know and so that's just the for me i feel like it's the first show that i'm watching where i'm no longer that generation yeah you know
Starting point is 01:00:52 i mean like when you watch super bad those kind of things i'm like oh yeah that was what high school was like for me yeah but then you watch euphoria and you're like oh my god is this what high school is like now do you think that's what it is like or do you think they're just like it's definitely glorified like it's definitely more than that but yeah i definitely the drugs and stuff like that yeah absolutely yeah i mean i remember being in high school and like you know you always had like the one guy who was selling like percocets and you had the one guy who was selling like drugs you had never even heard of and it was like well i don't know you can't do that i had a couple friends who were like full-blown like ecstasy addicts yeah and they did it for so long
Starting point is 01:01:27 that by the time we were juniors in high school they were like perma yeah it was so sad because they were like really cool nice people and then by the time we were juniors they were just like sitting in class always sweating could never like keep their eyes on one thing and it's like wow you really like you fried your brain before your brain was even are you still facebook friends with them uh one of them i think so yeah but i haven't looked up that's the thing too all of my every single person from high school is married and has children one of my best friends from junior high has seven children right now wow that's insane to me i couldn't imagine no he needs an au pair he needs a pair of au pairs he needs multiple au pairs the soundtrack for euphoria though is incredible okay it's just
Starting point is 01:02:14 wild i like euphoria because it's just it is a little too much sometimes but i think artistically cinematography sound like all of the all of the things that go into it make it like an incredible show the acting is insane but yeah it's there's a you know there's some there's some scenes in that show where i'm just like this was unnecessary yeah and too much matthew shively yeah that's my full first name matthew shively thank you so much for coming on yft you are wonderful thank you i we didn't really do much favorites, but I guess this is how it works. Yeah, it's kind of, it's, I like to say it's like the Seinfeld of podcasts where like nothing really happens. That's good.
Starting point is 01:02:53 I had a podcast and that's what we did. It was called The Pitch. And literally I would like write down like current events that, you know, I saw on TMZ that week. And then I would just go in blind and just hope for the best. Do you still have it? Is it still going? No, no, no. I did it for like a year, like five years ago. And the guy that I did it with, you know, he was like the co-host. And I think he was, he would agree with me too. I don't think
Starting point is 01:03:14 I'm talking trash about him, but he just like, he didn't have a filter. And I feel as though that at some point that was going to end up biting me in the ass. So it was like, we had to kind of chill out on it. I just stopped doing itcha yeah we'll work with people follow you and check you out you can follow me on instagram yep at matt shively uh it's ely for those who needs no and then yeah twitter is matt shively one and what matt shively one oh there's another match well i made matt shively and then i like forgot it and so yeah and so now i can't can't do it there are a lot more match i've leased and i was aware of um but yeah so but you are the number one as of right now on imdb yes that's good but there are a couple that
Starting point is 01:03:57 are creeping up are they creeping well one of them is all right well good luck with your indie film and your upcoming Capital One commercial. Thank you so much. Love you, bud. Capital One. Capital One. Use it or lose it. You should do like a less popular, like you should do Discover Card.
Starting point is 01:04:19 If when I get to that point, I will only reach out to Discover. It makes total sense that Adam Devine would do Capital One, which is like a premium credit card. But for you, you need to do. And I will be playing Ryan Laserbeam. Yeah, this is great. This podcast has been brought to you by Podcast Nation.
