1
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: And I invited you here. I thought I made myself

2
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: perfectly clear. When you're a guest in my home, you

3
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: gotta come to me empty. And I said, no guests.

4
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 1: You're our presences presents enough. I already had too much stuff,

5
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: So how do you dare to surbey me?

6
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: Welcome to? I said, no gifts. I'm Bridgard Wineger. Here

7
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 2: we are.

8
00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 3: It's you, it's me. We're dancing, we're having a wonderful time.

9
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,959
Speaker 3: You're listening. I'm speaking, and we're going to bring in

10
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 3: our guest almost immediately. We've got to get to the guest.

11
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 3: You're dying to hear the guest. I'm dying to speak

12
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 3: to the guest. We're all gonna have a fantastic time.

13
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 3: It's John Gabris.

14
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 2: Welcome to. I said, no gifts.

15
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 4: Hey, thank you for having me on. I said, no gifts.

16
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 4: This is thrilling.

17
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 2: John.

18
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 3: We don't know each other, but all I know you

19
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 3: go by gabriis largely, and I feel deeply uncomfortable calling

20
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 3: you John.

21
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 4: Oh whatever you call me is kosher, Well, John or Gabris.

22
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 4: I'll answer to both. I would say, if I were

23
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 4: introducing myself to you, I'd be like Hi, John Gabris,

24
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 4: but everybody calls me Gabris, right, and you may do

25
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:44,680
Speaker 4: the same.

26
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: Yeah.

27
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 3: I just feel like we share enough mutual people in

28
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 3: our lives that I never hear of you refer to

29
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 3: as John.

30
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 4: And if you were, like I had John on my podcast,

31
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 4: people will be like you gotta get mulaney. Then set

32
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 4: up for a letdown when you're like, no, Gabrish.

33
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely not.

34
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think just for the rest of this recording, well,

35
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 3: who knows what'll happen.

36
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 2: I may just go back and forth. I'm going to

37
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 2: refer to you however I want.

38
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 4: Please, and I will answer. I mean, it is just

39
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 4: the two of us, so I'll assume if you're addressing anyone,

40
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 4: it would be me. You might not even ever need

41
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 4: to use my name again.

42
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 3: If there's a name, another name comes up, maybe suddenly

43
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 3: there's someone behind you.

44
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 4: Oh right, fair enough, And if there is someone behind me,

45
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 4: please let me know. That's like a horrifying zoom movie.

46
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 3: Oh I would love it. Halloween has just happened. Did

47
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 3: you do anything for Halloween?

48
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 4: I hosted some friends at my house for a little

49
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 4: Halloween soare how was it was a delight? You know,

50
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 4: It was just like ten forty plus year olds having

51
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 4: a vegan stew that my wife made for dinner, and

52
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 4: you know, just getting wasted in talking about. Hardly anything

53
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 4: Halloween related happened except for scary movies and candy.

54
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 2: No cast.

55
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 4: There was a cau we had to dress. Everyone had

56
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 4: to dress up, according to my wife, and all the

57
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 4: women were just sort of like variations on a witch

58
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 4: or a goth woman, and all the men were actually

59
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 4: we had two of the guys were Barbin Starr, which

60
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 4: was pretty tough, and I and I had like a

61
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 4: real low rent, last minute costume because my wife sprung

62
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 4: the whole no, you have to wear a costume at

63
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 4: the last minute. I was like for a dinner party, like,

64
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 4: that's different. So I went as sexy Michael Myers, which

65
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 4: was just a coveralls unzipped, no mask. Just happened to

66
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 4: own coveralls and never getting rid of them. For that

67
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 4: reason alone.

68
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 3: I like that when Michael Myers is feeling sexy, he

69
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 3: takes the mask off, he takes off the real iconic

70
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 3: part of his out.

71
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 4: Well, he's feeling himself. He doesn't need to hide himself.

72
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 4: He's like, this is what my face looks like, I'm

73
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 4: just a normal psychiatric patient. That's the pure embodiment of evil.

74
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 4: That's all I feel like.

75
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 3: The mask is the last thing comes off of Michael

76
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 3: Myers when he's feeling sex.

77
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 2: See what scary movies.

78
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 4: Did you watch? We watched Exorcists, poulter Geist, and Rosemary's Baby,

79
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 4: but they were just sort of playing, Oh, okay, you

80
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 4: know like that. Yeah, everyone down for nine hours? Yeah,

81
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 4: gave them black bean stew and then spent nine hours

82
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 4: farting watching horror movies.

83
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 2: Okay, So was the volume even on?

84
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 4: We had the volume on, and then we transitioned to

85
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 4: spooky music and just some visuals. My wife and I

86
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 4: have been watching like a as we call it, a

87
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 4: spooky movie every night for like since October first or whatever.

88
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 4: So I did not care. I did not We already

89
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 4: had them all saved on the fucking Apple TV. So

90
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 4: we're just like, oh, let's run them through. Uh. Shutter

91
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 4: has a cool like shutter as channels the horror movie

92
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 4: app and they have like channels that'll just play movies

93
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,040
Speaker 4: back to back. So we had that on for a

94
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 4: little bit. It was it was it was a good time.

95
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 2: How many channels the Shutter have.

96
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 4: They just have two and one is called like slash Hicks,

97
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 4: and one is called it Came from Shutter and it's

98
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 4: just like arbitrary deliney. One of them was playing the

99
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 4: Halloween movies as many as they had the rights to,

100
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 4: back to back to back on Halloween, which was kind

101
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 4: of thrilling.

102
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 2: Oh that's fantastic.

103
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 3: I was picturing kind of like an NBC style app

104
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 3: where you've got like a sports channel, you've got everything.

105
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 4: Now you've got like a great selection of movies, and

106
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 4: then just two no pausing, no rewinding, just two channels

107
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 4: running that are just playing, so like if you just

108
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 4: want to because I missed that feeling. I mean, as

109
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 4: I mentioned earlier, I'm forty thirty nine to be on

110
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 4: a forty by the time this comes back to thirty nine, please,

111
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,279
Speaker 4: it's the last couple of months as I'm a thirty

112
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 4: nine year old, so I miss clicking through and catching

113
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 4: a movie or being like, oh this is on. I

114
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 4: would never have picked this on demand, like, but I

115
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 4: want to watch it from the middle on. You know,

116
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 4: we're like, oh, this is my favorite part of Goodfellas

117
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 4: and I want to leave it on. So that is

118
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 4: kind of thrilling to me. I think every app should

119
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 4: have a channel that just plays their shit in like

120
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:08,799
Speaker 4: random rotation.

121
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 3: The luxury of just dropping in halfway through movie, not

122
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 3: having to make any decision, and just figuring it out.

123
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 4: Oh it's oh, just so now you know your life

124
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 4: is pretty privileged when you're like, thank God, I don't

125
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 4: have to choose a movie the biggest stress of my day.

126
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 4: I'm speaking for myself, not you. I would not assume

127
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 4: please do.

128
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 3: Please from a throne. Did you watch anything particularly scary?

129
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 3: Do scary movies actually scare you?

130
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 4: Not really anymore? But I do really like and I

131
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 4: try to let myself get scared by them, so I,

132
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 4: you know, get very high and kind of like allow

133
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 4: myself to get caught up in the moment. You know.

134
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 4: A couple that I saw that like kind of affected me.

135
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 4: I wouldn't like. I saw a Possessor Uncut directed by

136
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 4: Something Cronenberg, David Cronenberg's son, and it was a really

137
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 4: fucked up wasn't fully scary, but I was unsettled after

138
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 4: I finished it. Oh, because we went away for our

139
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 4: ten year anniversary to an Airbnb, and that changes the

140
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 4: entire vibe if you watch a scary movie not in

141
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 4: your own house. It adds a whole layer of like

142
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 4: new sounds, new creeks. Oh my god, the air conditioner

143
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 4: came on. That's louder than I expected, like, and that

144
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 4: was really fun. That was part of the fun of

145
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 4: watching Possessor. There I was like kind of fucking unsettled,

146
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 4: sleeping in like a random bed that night.

147
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 2: What is the general plot of Possessor?

148
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 4: It is sort of in the near distant future, there

149
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 4: is a way in which you could take over someone's psyche,

150
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 4: like possess them via some sort of surgical means and

151
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 4: control them. And a company is using it for assassinations

152
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 4: where they like take over. Bridger invites Gabras on his podcast,

153
00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 4: Bridger shoots Gabris, Bridger shoots himself. Cut to Joe Rogan

154
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 4: waking up in the Possess. I'm trying to think who

155
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 4: would be rivaled by our podcast notoriety, and I guess

156
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 4: Rogan is the first one that comes to mind.

157
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 2: Oh, Rogangan, Rogan.

158
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 3: I do feel like I can see that chain of

159
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 3: events leading to Rogan. Yes, that all kind of adds

160
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 3: up for me.

161
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 4: Are you a scary movie person?

162
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 3: I like scary movies. Almost none of them scare me.

163
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 3: At this point, I feel like I'm my nerves are fried.

164
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 3: One movie that I at least remember scaring me was

165
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 3: The Strangers.

166
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 4: Oh, that one fucked me up too, And that came

167
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 4: out long enough ago that I was like younger and

168
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 4: that now we've had so many like home invasion hers,

169
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,679
Speaker 4: but that one fucking hit those burlap sack masks. I've

170
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 4: only watched it once in the It was like the

171
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 4: month it came out, and I have not revisited that movie.

172
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 3: Oh, that's the first scary movie that I like, I

173
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 3: tried watching alone. I had, I had the general idea

174
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 3: of what the movie was in my head, and like

175
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 3: ten minutes in the knock on the door and I

176
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 3: just had to turn it off and wait for someone

177
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 3: else to watch it with me.

178
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 2: It's horrible.

179
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 4: It makes sense, It makes sense, man. Uh. The scariest

180
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 4: movie from my childhood, The movie that fucked me up

181
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 4: the most was Cat's Eye, which is sort of like

182
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 4: an anthology horror movie based on Stephen King's stories. Okay,

183
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 4: and the last story is a young Drew Barrymore who

184
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 4: has a troll that comes in her room at night

185
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 4: and closes her nose and steals her breath and she

186
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 4: and eventually the cat fights it and saves her. But

187
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 4: that fucked me up, so I have chills talking about

188
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 4: it now. I'm like, it's upset, Like I think it

189
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 4: gave me claustrophobia, Like I panic if I wake up

190
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 4: and my face is in my pillow or my dog

191
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 4: is or my wife whoever is like too close to

192
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 4: my face. I'm like, Okna, fucking die. It's the troll,

193
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,199
Speaker 4: you know, and like that little dag. He's got a

194
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 4: creepy little dagger.

195
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 3: I highly recommend that was sneaking in pinching her nose.

196
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 3: Is he like doing a CPR style thing and like

197
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 3: kissing her or is it?

198
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 2: Yeah?

199
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 4: More or less now that you've yeah, you've really defanged

200
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 4: it by explaining it that way, But yes, that is

201
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,599
Speaker 4: more or less what it looks like he's I rewatched

202
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,559
Speaker 4: it a few years ago because I was like, Okay,

203
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 4: this movie fucked me up so bad. I put it

204
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 4: on and it is it's like they're cool little horror

205
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 4: movies vignettes, but the troll is like a is like

206
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 4: a kid's toy, like you know what I mean. It's

207
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 4: like so unscary, it's so cute, and it's like, oh

208
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 4: aw man, the things I have changed I've changed.

209
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 3: I mean, the idea of somebody pinching your nose while

210
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 3: your mouth is closed and you're not aware is horrifying.

211
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 4: Horror. Waking up not able to breathe seems like a

212
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 4: very terrifying experience.

213
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 2: Absolutely awful.

214
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 3: I mean it's in the same realm of uh, what

215
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 3: is it sleep paralysis?

216
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, waking up unable to move, or waking up underwater

217
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 4: or in the ground. I don't think that happens that frequently.

218
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 2: More often than you'd like to than you would know.

219
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 2: Have you ever had sleep paralysis?

220
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 4: No, I've never really. I've had some like horrifying dreams

221
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 4: where I couldn't move in the dreams, right, But I

222
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,959
Speaker 4: never really had like what some people like. The way

223
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 4: I understand sleep paralysis, or at least I do from

224
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 4: like a documentary I watched on Netflix.

225
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 3: Have you I'd like to give it a shot. I'd

226
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 3: like to get a taste of sleep paralysis. I don't

227
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 3: want it to haunt me.

228
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I too would like to just know once what

229
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,199
Speaker 4: it feels like. I want to wake up with a

230
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 4: little demon on my chest, being like you're not moving yet.

231
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 4: Gabris or John? Which one should I call you?

232
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 1: Is?

233
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,439
Speaker 4: I feel uncomfortable calling you John?

234
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 2: This is your sleep paralysis.

235
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 3: You're going to wake up in any moment and this

236
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 3: will all be in your past.

237
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 4: No, that's sort of fucking God.

238
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 3: Look, rabies. I would probably give it a shot. There

239
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 3: are certain things.

240
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 4: Very curious about rabies. Very I keep reaching my hand

241
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:47,199
Speaker 4: into raccoon nests just I'm very curious about rabies.

242
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 3: What does it actually do? Do you turn into kind

243
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 3: of a wild animal.

244
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 4: It's the closest we have to zombie ism, right, So,

245
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 4: like that's what's appealing about it, is like what does

246
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 4: it do to people that we all go fucking mad?

247
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 4: Let's find out.

248
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,079
Speaker 3: And we've got some you know, you'd get a shot

249
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 3: or something. So I feel like it's not that scary anymore.

250
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 4: Just the way you said it sounded so unsure. It

251
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 4: can a shot or something. It can't be that bad.

252
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 4: That's you talking to the doctor. The Doctor's like, Bro,

253
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 4: you're fucking toast man. You have rabies. I'll just get

254
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 4: a shot or so, I'll take some turmeric.

255
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 2: Medicaid, shampoo or what have you.

256
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 3: And they'll take care of the raccoon bite as I'm

257
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 3: like foaming and shaking. But look, we don't know how

258
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 3: to these things work until we do them so.

259
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 4: Right, and that's why we are the pioneers of self

260
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 4: rabies application. I mean, I am very this is funny

261
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 4: you triggered this part in me, but I am a

262
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 4: very much like an experience based guy, Like I love

263
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 4: to have new experiences and have tried things. I think

264
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 4: it all stems from, like if someone's having a conversation

265
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,559
Speaker 4: about something, I want to be like, I too went skydiving.

266
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 4: Like that's the narcissistic side of it, but I like

267
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,719
Speaker 4: to pretend it's like my curiosity run amok. But I

268
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 4: think it's truly like I need to be all knowing

269
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 4: and have tried everything. Everyone must like me, I must

270
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,199
Speaker 4: engage with But so like this shit appeals to me

271
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 4: of like I would like to get myself in a

272
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 4: situation where I try that shit.

273
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 3: Of course, and then to be at a party where

274
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 3: multiple people are talking about their rabies experiences and then

275
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 3: you pop in, I did it too.

276
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 4: Oh well, I just had a little shot or something

277
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 4: and I was totally fine, Like just bragging about how

278
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 4: you did better at rabies than everyone else. Like so

279
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:36,559
Speaker 4: it's like both of my children died. You're like, ooh, week, huh.

280
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 3: Wait, what are some experiences you've done just to have

281
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 3: the experience.

282
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 4: I mean a lot of them are like physical events,

283
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 4: because that's something that gets me motivated. So like I've

284
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 4: ran a half marathon and being three hundred pounds. I've

285
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 4: ran too, I've skydived, lied about my weight so I

286
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,239
Speaker 4: could be under the guided weight to skydive.

287
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 2: Stupid, there's skydiving.

288
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 4: It might have changed in case they still want to

289
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 4: make business in America. But I think when I went

290
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 4: in two thousand and three, you had to be two

291
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 4: hundred and twenty five pounds. I was two thirty five.

292
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 4: I assume there was a ten pound margin you.

293
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 2: Can squeeze in there.

294
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 4: Give me a breath, yeah exactly. They're like, I'm like,

295
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 4: come on, you can't have a if you have a

296
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 4: ten pound margin error. It's like, no, take your boots off,

297
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 4: we're gonna die like you like I've I've scuba dived,

298
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 4: I've cliff jumped, you know, Like I don't really say

299
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 4: no to stuff. I guess is like the main the

300
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 4: main thing. As a matter of fact, if you invite

301
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 4: me to a party, I say yes and then just

302
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 4: don't go.

303
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 3: I do feel like the last year and a half

304
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 3: has kind of awoken that in me of like at

305
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 3: least saying yeah and then figuring out on the day

306
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 3: if I'm actually going to do it right.

307
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 4: Well, it's just like a full year of no one

308
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 4: asking you anything. So then when you come back, you're like, yes,

Speaker 4: her mom always comes out for Thanksgiving, so it's always been.

333
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 4: ten years ago.

334
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 2: So do they know each other very well?

335
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 4: They know each other pretty well because of when we

00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 4: we don't have to do two separate fucking dinners. They

342
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 4: so they know each other pretty well, and I'm really

343
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,520

Speaker 4: to like hang out in LA for a week with them.

355
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,080

Speaker 4: They have some sail boats in their fleet, but this

370
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 4: is like a small it's like a small boat. It's

371
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 4: not like a big cruise boat.

372
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 2: It's like like a giant.

373
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 4: There's no Mickey Mouse or there's no pool on it.

374
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 4: There's no none of that stuff. It's like doc somewhere.

00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 4: They open up the back and you've off and played

376
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:01,320

00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 4: fun in my entire But it.

381
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 2: Sounds expensive, you know.

382
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 3: It's like, there's no way you're going to do that

383
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 3: thing and it's gonna be like, oh, we got it

384
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 3: for three hundred bucks.

385
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 4: That was the thing too. It's like, well, I mean,

386
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 4: if anything's going to be expensive, it should be round

387
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,159
Speaker 4: trip flights to Tahiti in eight days on a cruise.

388
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 4: It's like, yeah, oh okay, Like then that's but it

389
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 4: was just like, you know, sweat on the back of

390
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 4: your neck and mustache as you're clicking yes typing in

391
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 4: your credit card info, like woo o.

392
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm thrilled for you. That actually you're talking about

393
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,919
Speaker 3: bucket lists and boats. I was actually recently thinking about this.

394
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 3: There's I think the only thing left. Well I don't

395
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 3: well I don't have a bucket list, let's be honest,

396
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 3: but if there was one, I want to be on

397
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,679
Speaker 3: a row boat in a foggy lake, someone rowing me

398
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 3: across a foggy lake in a boat like And this

399
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 3: is all based off of the Garfield Halloween special.

400
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 2: This has been haunting.

401
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I knew you didn't have to say that. That

402
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 4: was so apparent.

403
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 3: Since probably nineteen ninety one. I have been wanting to

404
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 3: be in a rowboat on a foggy lake. If anyone

405
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 3: could make that happen for me, let's do it.

406
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,640
Speaker 4: That sounds fun as hell and like a little spooky,

407
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 4: a little eerie and like that, like, oh, maybe it's

408
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 4: like a rowboat where and it's nighttime, it's foggy, and

409
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 4: you're in like a big cable knit cardigan and like.

410
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 2: Dream Yeah, oh my god. I mean I can't row

411
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 2: a boat to save my life. But if somebody can

412
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 2: row me in the boat, I'm I'm letty and available.

413
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 4: If someone has fog lake and a boat, I can

414
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 4: handle the rowing. And I too as like previously, I'm

415
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 4: a box checker, a bucket list or a events guy.

416
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 4: So I'm down to say yeah, I don't want to

417
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 4: be at a party with you someday and you turn

418
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,240

00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 3: both of us and it's going to lead to us

425
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 3: both getting rabies as well.

426
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:13,160

00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 3: made my big revelation for the episode, and I now

433
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 3: I'd like to get into something else. It's a little

434
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 3: bit more touchy, a little bit that's more sensitive subject.

435
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 4: Please.

Speaker 3: You agreed to be on this podcast. I said, no gifts.

443
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 3: Emails were exchanged, and so I was a little surprised

444
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 3: when I opened the door the other day and there's

445
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 3: a box lying on my porch. I'm addressed to Bridger

446
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 3: quote podcast gift quote Wineger, and I thought, I want.

447
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 4: You to be startled. I didn't want you to be like,

448
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 4: I'm not opening this shit. It could be anthrax, you know, Like,

449
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 4: I don't know what kind of fans you've developed.

450
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 3: Going back to experiences hasn't happened to me yet. Look,

451
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 3: if I come across an envelope full of anthrax one day,

452
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,200
Speaker 3: it'll be a story to tell. It's kind of bound

453
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 3: to happen to me. At this point, I guess I'm

454
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,640
Speaker 3: I'm really begging the university.

455
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 4: You're legitimately asking for it at this point, like directly

456
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 4: asking for it. Please world send me anthrax.

457
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 3: Okay, that may be the one experience. I'm not quite

458
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 3: let's keep that from my eighties. I'm like, if I

459
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 3: get to my eighties, I'm happy to get a just

460
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 3: a face full of anthrax.

461
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 2: But for now, let's keep that off the docket.

462
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 4: Well, because you didn't work in the NBC mail room

463
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 4: late nineties, early two thousands, my chance, because you would

464
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 4: already have that check.

465
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 2: Till I should say.

466
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 3: I was employee of the month multiple times, but I

467
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 3: did push off a lot of my work on my

468
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 3: co workers, and it was absent frequently, so I missed

469
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 3: the opportunity. Okay, gets okay, but you know, look, I

470
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 3: don't want to get an anthrax in the mail.

471
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 2: There's the second on the list gifts. So I was

472
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 2: a little upset. And now I'm looking at this thing.

473
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 3: It's now in kind of this trashy paper bag, which I'll.

474
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 2: Blame you for.

475
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's fair, Cabris.

476
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 2: Should I open this here on the podcast?

477
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 4: I guess now I understand the name of your podcast,

478
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 4: So I really am sorry for sending you something. I

479
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 4: just always send anyone when I guess on their podcast,

480
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 4: I send them something that means a lot to me

481
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 4: and them. So I sent you this, but you did

482
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 4: say at the be in the podcast, we really don't

483
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 4: know each other, So I went, I don't a live

484
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 4: and yeah, let's just let's just open it. Open it

485
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 4: on the pod. I apologize. I know you said no gifts,

486
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 4: but that's not me, babe. That's just that, ain't me.

487
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna open this up.

488
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:17,360
Speaker 4: Please do get some tissue here, and.

489
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:18,440
Speaker 2: We're gonna get in here.

490
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 3: We've got a box and it was shipped to my home,

491
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 3: so I'm gonna get my scissor.

492
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 2: I'm trying to learn to cut away from the body.

493
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 4: I think those packages are like tear away.

494
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 3: They are tear away, that's true, and I never tear away.

495
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 3: You know, the billions of dollars this company poured into

496
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 3: a tear away tape that sticks around, I should take advantage.

497
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,120
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna just rip it. Ooh sounds good.

498
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 4: There we go.

499
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 2: This is a weighty gift. I mean, this is you know.

500
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll get into it, but it was I really

501
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 4: was scrambling. Okay, well, let's I know you said no gifts,

502
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 4: but I took it's a weird ask, and I stressed

503
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,679
Speaker 4: about this. I don't know how you said no gifts.

504
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 4: I panic, and we said I gotta get him a gift,

505
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 4: and then I was like, forgot about it because usually, uh,

506
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 4: guessing on someone else's podcast doesn't require a shit like,

507
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 4: but I do this to myself because I love to

508
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 4: get gifts. So I was panicked, and then uh, you know,

509
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 4: I was got reminded, hey, don't forget this is this

510
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 4: coming Wednesday. I feel like you haven't responded to an

511
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 4: email in a while. So I had a full panic,

512
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 4: tried a bunch of stuff, and that's why I had

513
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 4: to fucking throw another few bucks into Bezos's ass because

514
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 4: I had to use Amazon to rush get it to you.

515
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 3: We're all trapped in Bezos this world. But okay, I'm gonna.

516
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 5: Oh this is incredible, I'll tell you I don't okay,

517
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 5: So listener, I now have three pounds of pistachios, lightly salted.

518
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 4: Oh those are the best. I'm a man.

519
00:24:55,840 --> 00:25:01,120
Speaker 3: Who's constantly ordering about this size of bag of brazil Yes,

520
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 3: and so now I've got a beautiful bag of pistachios

521
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 3: to put next to the brazil nuts. But I'm curious

522
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,360
Speaker 3: as to why this whole choice in general.

523
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 4: You know, someone got that for me as a gift once,

524
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:20,199
Speaker 4: and I still have pistachios. They don't go bad, you know, right.

525
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 4: It tastes amazing. They're a very nutritious snack. And I

526
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 4: was eating shelled pistachios for ale already unshelled, and that's

527
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 4: a very easy way to consume like seven hundred calories

528
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 4: and a couple of handfuls. So if you go, I

529
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 4: went shell on because it's at least for me, I

530
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 4: can just kind of eyeball that we don't have some

531
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 4: of the same health issues, but like, at least for me,

532
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 4: it slows me down enough that it forces me to

533
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 4: pace myself. And the lightly salted from whatever that farm is,

534
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 4: they make good pistachio.

535
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 3: Let's give the farm a little plug here. It's I

536
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 3: actually love the name of this. I'm pronouncing it. Yeah,

537
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 3: it's like, yeah, fittymint or fiddlemint. I have no idea

538
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 3: fittymint farms. It's a California pistachio. But from what I

539
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 3: can tell, it's, Oh, it is coming from California. I

540
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 3: was going to say it's coming from Nebraska because I

541
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 3: saw the word Lincoln. It's coming from Lincoln, California. Hell yeah,

542
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 3: vitamin farms. I And going back to what you're saying, though,

543
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 3: I love a food that makes you work for it.

544
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:27,120
Speaker 3: I don't want, you know, a handful of almonds. Who cares?

545
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 3: I love the puzzle element of a pistachio. It gives

546
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 3: you a little game that you have to deal with,

547
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 3: and then you get a set one of the best

548
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 3: nuts right there.

549
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,120
Speaker 4: It's a great nut that I enjoy the game as well.

550
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 4: It's so funny that I really do like opening them.

551
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 4: But nothing makes me happier than finding just like like

552
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 4: loose meat and like you you know, and you're like,

553
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 4: I love opening them. Oh sick. I didn't have to

554
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 4: open It feels like a little extra victory to have

555
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 4: like some loose pistachio meat rolling around in.

556
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 3: There, right, But I don't feel right when I do

557
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,719
Speaker 3: buy a pistachio a can of pistafa and they're all naked,

558
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 3: it doesn't feel it feels unnatural to me. I like

559
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 3: to have the shell there. I need to see the

560
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 3: full product. But I don't know what that says about

561
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 3: the rest of nuts. Like these brazil nuts, I have

562
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 3: no idea what form they are on a tree.

563
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're like, I like to work for them. They

564
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 4: send you a fucking like twenty foot Amazonian tree that

565
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 4: has nuts on the top, and you're like, I don't

566
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 4: know how the fuck I'm gonna get these.

567
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 2: Each one in a cinderblock. Just set the hammer away.

568
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 3: I mean, actually I would probably be into that. But yeah,

569
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 3: I do love a pistachio. Do you is a pistasho

570
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 3: your favorite nut?

571
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 4: I think a pistachio is up there is my favorite nut? Big?

572
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 4: I like cashews, I don't. I love brazil nuts too.

573
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 2: Brazil nuts.

574
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 3: If nothing else, this podcast is trying to just launch

575
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 3: the brazil nut into a more mainstream thing.

576
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 4: Is it is?

577
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 2: It is?

578
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 1: It?

579
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 4: Is it cook down.

580
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 3: Upon anytime brazil nuts in a nut mixed people are complaining.

581
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,360
Speaker 4: People are like, what's this big fucking in apple looking thing.

582
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 4: I'm like, dude, that's a brazil nut. Those things fucking rule.

583
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,159
Speaker 4: They're better than chestnuts. Fuck chestnuts.

584
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 2: Wait, I don't know that I've ever actually had a chestnut.

585
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not positive I have either. I just backvetdled

586
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 4: immediately upon you go not going, yeah, chestnuts suck. I

587
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 4: was like, well, maybe I haven't had a chest nut. Bolt.

588
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 4: I think I have had a chestnut because my grandma

589
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 4: used to have something where we would have to crack

590
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 4: it at the table and like and when you're a

591
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 4: kid and you're just like the adults are all drunk

592
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 4: and fighting. You're like, I just need a snack or

593
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 4: camp or some kind of treat, and all you have

594
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 4: are these weird, like acorn looking fucking things in a

595
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 4: dish because your grandma's weird and poor.

596
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 3: Chestnuts are the thing that you use a nutcracker for.

597
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 3: So I have had it, right.

598
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would think so there's probably other nuts, but

599
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 4: I think the nutcracker is traditionally used on chestnuts, and

600
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 4: that's like their Christmas tie in. I'm assuming because chestnuts.

601
00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 3: All coming together for me now yeah, but now, but

602
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 3: now that I'm looking back, I basically had that exact

603
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 3: experience as a kid, where it's like I'm starving. I

604
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 3: do I know, I like peanuts and almonds. I imagine

605
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 3: it'll be fine, and it tastes like mud.

606
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, it does not taste scary. It tastes like, oh,

607
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 4: I think I ate the shell and people are like, no,

608
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 4: you ate the.

609
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 2: Right cart You've got the thing.

610
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 4: People like, Oh, this is why people are rute, this

611
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 4: is what they're looking for. Fuck that, dude.

612
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 3: Wow, I haven't I haven't had that taste memory in

613
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 3: a long time, and I probably won't ever have it again.

614
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 4: But I like pecans as well, if they're if they're

615
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 4: like a little flavored, like glaze or something, I mean

616
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 4: I like them. I like them raw as well. I

617
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 4: don't know if that's how you say it.

618
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 3: But I think that is. I you don't say plain,

619
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 3: and that's what I said. Yeah, I'll take one plain

620
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 3: pecan place.

621
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 4: I'll have one raw pecan. Sir, you need to leave.

622
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 4: Oh baby, I like my pecans raw. Get the fuck

623
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 4: out of here, man, totally fair, I got you. Uh,

624
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 4: pecans are pecans. Now I'm panicking. I'm from New York,

625
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 4: so I don't know how to say.

626
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 2: I say pecan.

627
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 3: It's almost an impossible word.

628
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 4: I say pecan, but I think I say pecan pie,

629
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 4: interesting because pecan pie sounds weird to me. But maybe

630
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 4: I say peacans. I don't even know.

631
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 3: Well, the weird thing is this pecan sounds kind of snobby,

632
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 3: but pecan sounds real stupid, winning with this word.

633
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 4: As someone who's done some camping. Pecan has certain names.

634
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 4: You know, has a different connotation for a pea can.

635
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 4: I like a sliced almond in a salad.

636
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:37,840

00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 3: and I feel like that eminem is not widely available enough.

640
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 4: I think you're right. Uh. Growing up, there used to

Speaker 4: letting you just take it. But it shouldn't be up

679
00:32:55,280 --> 00:33:01,280

680
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna be a he about the stolen candy situation.

681
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,200

682
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 4: I'll open the register and give you the cash inside

683
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 4: of it. I'm not trying to say I'm not trying

684
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 4: to die for fucking mister Veronica Smith or whatever his

685
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 4: name is. I'm trying to guess his initials.

686
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 3: No, but I remember reading years ago walmart In state

687
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 3: at a policy that was like, if it's below twenty

688
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 3: five dollars, just leave them alone, it's not worth it.

689
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 3: It's like, I think, like the legal fees and all

690
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 3: of that just costs more than the stolen twenty five dollars.

691
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, and if you can't afford health insurance because we've

692
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 4: been paying Garbach this whole time, you probably don't want

693
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,719
Speaker 4: to put your life on the line for a fucking,

694
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 4: you know, ten dollars t.

695
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 2: Shirt, right.

696
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 3: I feel like most retail the employees are basically instructed

697
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 3: just let people shoplift or like it's not worth anybody.

698
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 4: I mean, it's probably a bigger liability. Like if you

699
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 4: step in front of a shoplifter and he decks you,

700
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 4: and you can like, all right, well, now I'm suing

701
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 4: Lean Bryant or whatever wherever you happen to work.

702
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 3: I know, so I have that thought constantly haunting me.

703
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 3: You know, I'm I'm just fine, but there's the always

704
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 3: the thought, maybe I could just take this, Maybe it's

705
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 3: time I just take this bag of M and m's.

706
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,720
Speaker 4: I got shoplifting out of my system when I was younger.

707
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 4: I did do a I did do a bunch of it.

708
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 4: To be if I'm being on this.

709
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 2: What kind of stuff are your shoplifting?

710
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 4: Lighters, candy, stuff from Starbucks? You know, like random shit

711
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 4: that they have. I would steal things I wanted. I

712
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,840
Speaker 4: would steal things I needed, and then I would steal

713
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,319
Speaker 4: things because I was bored, like just being in. My

714
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 4: friend worked at Starbucks in high school, and I would

715
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 4: like go there, and he like worked at like the

716
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 4: first like early Starbucks. It felt like no one was

717
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 4: really drinking it. Everyone was like, what the fuck is

718
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 4: this bougie ass thing. That's also more of a sign

719
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 4: about Long Island than anything else. But my friend would

720
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 4: like worked. I don't think I think there's statu of

721
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 4: limitations is far enough that I would go up to

722
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 4: the counter buy a coffee and he would give me

723
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 4: a bag with my in the bag would just be

724
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 4: like a bunch of snacks, so like a bunch of

725
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 4: shit from the back. He would just be we'd be

726
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 4: like doing dual missions. And then one time he was like,

727
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:09,919
Speaker 4: you got to come buy and order a coffee tonight.

728
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 4: I got a plan. I was like, okay, yeah, I

729
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 4: came buy. I got a coffee. I didn't even drink

730
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 4: coffee until I was like twenty five, but came by.

731
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 4: I got like, you know, the decaf milkshake that's like

732
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 4: seven hundred calories. I got it. He gave me a

733
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 4: little bag. I walked out. The back is a spreadsoe

734
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 4: machine in the back. He sold it on eBay for

735
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 4: like five hundred dollars. He's like, I don't even care

736
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 4: that the manager takes the tips. I just made five hundred.

737
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,319
Speaker 4: I made an entire month's paycheck by selling this shit

738
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 4: on eBay? Did you ever do like I mean, I

739
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 4: feel like you would have jumped in with I also

740
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 4: used the shoplift I.

741
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 2: Used to shoplift from.

742
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: Uh.

743
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,959
Speaker 3: There was like a thrift store chain in Utah called

744
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 3: Deseret Industries, which we would you know, you donate all

745
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 3: of your old clothes too, So I just felt justified

746
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,440
Speaker 3: in being like, oh, I'm gonna just take these clothes.

747
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 4: If you get caught, you'd be like, this is actually mine.

748
00:35:58,800 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 4: My mom gave you that.

749
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 3: Someone I went to high school with walked into the

750
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 3: retail or into this thrift store, stole a suitcase as well,

751
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 3: it filled it with things, and then walked out with

752
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 3: the suitcase. One of the things was a Burger King

753
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 3: employee uniform, which he then used to go to a

754
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 3: Burger King and give away hamburger. So that's an incredible

755
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 3: chain of events.

756
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 4: Holy shit, that's like the fucking low Steaks Robin hood there.

Speaker 4: proud to like get another person turned onto them. And

Speaker 2: Of course, nobody's ever done that before.

801
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 3: Actually, I mean one would probably be real annoying because

802
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:45,720
Speaker 3: I you know, I use it too for randomization. Ah okay, okay, okay,

803

Speaker 4: video that came out seven months ago that I plugged

820
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:35,680

Speaker 3: and you're gonna tell me which person you're gonna give

827
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 3: which gift and why does that make sense?

828
00:39:58,440 --> 00:39:58,720
Speaker 4: Yes?

829
00:39:59,400 --> 00:39:59,800
Speaker 2: Okay.

830
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 3: The three gifts you're giving today are a garment steamer,

831
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 3: which is a nice gift. I think everyone can use

832
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 3: a garment steamer, A pair of heelis the shoe that

833
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:13,799
Speaker 3: with the wheel on the back.

834
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,239
Speaker 4: Say no more. I told you. I'm thirty nine. Really,

835
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,720
Speaker 4: I nearly blew my back out as a child playing

836
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 4: with those fucking things precursor to heelies, though the real

837
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 4: thing from my childhood was soap shoes.

838
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 2: The shoes, like the Clan built sopes.

839
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,360
Speaker 3: Soap are maybe one of the most dangerous pieces of

840
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 3: footwear ever designed.

841
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 4: Dude, I fell down the stairs in my fucking junior

842
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 4: high because the middle is plastic and slippery and you're

843
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 4: just like trying to It's cool for grinding, but brutal

844
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,240
Speaker 4: for just going up and down the stairs while carrying

845
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:48,360
Speaker 4: seventy five pounds worth of books and shit.

846
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you're not slipping and sliding down your local banisters,

847
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 3: you're kind of in a weirdly shaped high heel.

848
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 4: Yeah you are. It's weirdly clog heel.

849
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 3: A jac It's okay, So a pair of healeys, and

850
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 3: then finally a bowl cut.

851
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 2: So that's just a haircut.

852
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:10,480
Speaker 3: You'll be giving to the following three people who are

853
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 3: Zach Braf got it, fran Lebowitz okay, and this last

854
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 3: one is a little less conventional. Fans of Maroon five

855
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 3: all over the globe. So it's a gift for the fans.

856
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 3: I love a gift for the fans, you.

857
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 4: Know, Okay, I think I got it. I think fran Lebowitz.

858
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 4: I want to give the garment steamer, Okay, out of

859
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 4: fear of giving her anything that was like her roasting

860
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 4: me and you know, writing some skating cuts me down

861
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:46,839
Speaker 4: in some having a perfect retort. Yeah, some New York

862
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 4: NPR presents at fuckings the Tribeca. Something. I can't handle that.

863
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 4: So I want to give her something real that maybe

864
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 4: she can use. Maybe she could give it to, you know,

865
00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 4: a kid or some shit.

866
00:41:58,239 --> 00:41:58,439
Speaker 2: Right.

867
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 4: As for he, I would like to give those to

868
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 4: the Maroon five fans around the world, because I would

869
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 4: like nothing more than for Adam Levine to be blown

870
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,479
Speaker 4: away by like coming out to play at whatever, god

871
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 4: they play stadiums, don't they fuck it, comes out to

872
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,840
Speaker 4: play at whatever huge venue he's playing at and everyone

873
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 4: is just shot, like shooting around. That would be so

874
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,279
Speaker 4: like what the fuck is going on here? Very specific

875
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 4: sort of like I guess I would give the short answer.

876
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 4: I would give the Heelies to the fans of Maroon

877
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,759
Speaker 4: five around the globe, specifically as a sy op to

878
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 4: blow Adam Levine's mind.

879
00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 3: He walks out on stage and just immediately passes out,

880
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 3: seeing all of his fans kind of scooting around the stadia.

881
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:44,319
Speaker 4: They all have like two giant eighteen dollars beers and

882
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:47,799
Speaker 4: shooting down the aisles at Madison Square Garden, wiping out

883
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:53,399
Speaker 4: down the fucking nosebleed seats. And then bowl cut has

884
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:57,920
Speaker 4: got to go to Brath. A bowl cut, Honestly, a

885
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,560
Speaker 4: bowl cut is not something that many people could pull

886
00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 4: off except for Charlist there in in Fast nine. But

887
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 4: other than her, I would say, Braf can't pull off

888
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 4: a bowl cut. But it won't it won't lower his

889
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 4: nice sandy.

890
00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 3: See a picture with a bowl cut too easy to picture.

891
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 4: I imagine Florence Pugh might be into it, you know,

892
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,080
Speaker 4: because it might be like trendy in a weird way.

893
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 4: Oh no, I would give him a bowl cut, yes.

894
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:28,839
Speaker 3: Just immediately. I can picture him with that haircut. That's

895
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:32,800
Speaker 3: not a good sign for anyone. Oh that's perfectly played.

896
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 3: I really feel like you did that very well, fran.

897
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,400
Speaker 3: I mean, she's got the sport coat so she's always wearing,

898
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 3: or the jacket thing. Those are probably need to be

899
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 3: steamed constantly. She's got a uniform.

900
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:46,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, the bowl cut could go for fran too, but

901
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:48,759
Speaker 4: I don't want to do that to her. I like

902
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 4: her too much for that.

903
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:51,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a bit of an active aggression giving someone

904
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 3: a bowl cut.

905
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like her too much of that, So give

906
00:43:55,719 --> 00:44:00,120
Speaker 4: it the braf who I have less feelings to it.

907
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 3: Beautifully played. This is the last part of the podcast.

908
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 3: It's called I Said No Emails. People are writing into

909
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 3: I Said No Gifts at gmail dot com. Every one

910
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 3: of these people has some problem that they've decided we

911
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,320
Speaker 3: have to be involved in, and we do it expertly.

912
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 2: Will you answer a question with me?

913
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 4: Of course, I'd love nothing more.

914
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:22,240
Speaker 2: Okay, this is what this person is saying. Let's see.

915
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 3: Okay, here's a good one. It says, dear Bridger, and

916
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,759
Speaker 3: this is a nice qualifier for you and arguably the

917
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,319
Speaker 3: greatest I Said No Gifts podcast guest yet. So this

918
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 3: person took a shot in the dark, and I think

919
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 3: they nailed it.

920
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:37,360
Speaker 4: They were accidentally right. No shade to the rest of

921
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 4: your guests, But I at least agree with your this person.

922
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 4: I mean, you find it's like signed bearded in West Hollywood,

923
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 4: or it's like, uh hi, I did a lot of

924
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 4: work leading up to this podcast, I got your pistachios.

925
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 4: I created a fake email account.

926
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:55,919
Speaker 2: I've been leading a double live.

927
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,920
Speaker 3: Uh, this says, Okay, I started ating someone who had

928
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:02,800
Speaker 3: recently separated from her husband.

929
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 2: Okay, oh wow.

930
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:06,799
Speaker 3: She was visiting my hometown of Los Angeles, where she

931
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 3: and I met and formed a quick whirlwind of a relationship,

932
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,200
Speaker 3: but ultimately she had to go back home to North Carolina,

933
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:16,520
Speaker 3: where she still shared a house with her eventual ex husband.

934
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 3: This isn't very dramatic already, we see, I know, psycho sexual.

935
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is like the plot of every nineties movie.

936
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 4: I love this.

937
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 3: We stayed in touch over the next few weeks, but

938
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:32,840
Speaker 3: I could feel the fire between us slightly starting to

939
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,880
Speaker 3: fade due to the long distance and other obvious hurdles

940
00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 3: required to keep the relationship alive. However, I happened to

941
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 3: be planning a few months vacation to a nearby state,

942
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 3: which was only a five hour drive from her very convenient. Okay,

943
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,360
Speaker 3: this is getting dark. She asks if I wanted to

944
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:51,200
Speaker 3: come visit and stay at her house for a week

945
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,319
Speaker 3: or so. I was a bit hesitant to be her

946
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 3: guest while the husband still lived there, but she insisted

947
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:58,880
Speaker 3: that he was fine with it, and even speculated that

948
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 3: he and I could become friends. Oh my god, what

949
00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:02,280
Speaker 3: is happening?

950
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 4: Dude? Just enjoy your trip, get sor right, Let's get

951
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:07,200
Speaker 4: to the rest of the price.

952
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 3: Like ten thousand things could go wrong here. I decided

953
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:12,560
Speaker 3: to take her up on the offer to spend some

954
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 3: time with her and see if our relationship had anything. Okay,

955
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:18,359
Speaker 3: it's also I feel like someone's hiding. He just didn't

956
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,800
Speaker 3: want to pay for a hotel. He saw free lodging,

957
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:24,360
Speaker 3: and he went for Here comes the twist. The twist.

958
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,280
Speaker 3: The act of telling her husband that I was coming

959
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 3: sparked a new motivation in the husband to try harder

960
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:31,480
Speaker 3: to make their marriage work.

961
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 2: What is happening?

962
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:35,839
Speaker 3: By the time I had arrived at their house, he

963
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,480
Speaker 3: had won her over and convinced her to give it

964
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:42,319
Speaker 3: another shot. Although I was disappointed that my relationship was over,

965
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 3: I was strangely proud to be the catalyst for potentially

966
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,719
Speaker 3: saving a marriage. I ended up staying in the guest

967
00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:51,760
Speaker 3: bedroom and for the next week played board games, watch movies,

968
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 3: cooked meals, and I had a delightful time with them.

969
00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:58,799
Speaker 3: Maybe I've already done enough for them but I can't

970
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:00,760
Speaker 3: shake this feeling of needing to send them a gift

971
00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:04,799
Speaker 3: for their hospitality. Any ideas, thanks, And that's from Josh,

972
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:09,120
Speaker 3: who has apparently almost ruined a marriage and then saved it,

973
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,319
Speaker 3: gotten free lodging, played board games, and somehow not ended

974
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:12,880
Speaker 3: up a third.

975
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:14,400
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, I was just gonna say that's

976
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 4: from Josh was afraid to admitting he did a threesome

977
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 4: where a married couple and his email to a podcast

978
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:24,319
Speaker 4: the pieces were there, or I will say the only

979
00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 4: possibility that he didn't get involved sexually with the two

980
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:28,799
Speaker 4: of them, or one of them in front of the

981
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 4: other is they were all juiced up off having him there.

982
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you know what I mean?

983
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 4: Like toy, Yeah, He's like, yeah, I'm gonna go fuck

984
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 4: my wife. I know you went on this whirlwind date

985
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:44,520
Speaker 4: with her, but I'm gonna fuck my wife while you're

986
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 4: in the guest room. It feels fucking weird. But I

987
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 4: do think you should send a gift for hospitality because

988
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 4: no matter if you especially if you're in third them,

989
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,439
Speaker 4: you owe it to them. You stayed to someone's house

990
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,279
Speaker 4: for a week, no matter what the insane dynamics are,

991
00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:01,280
Speaker 4: you should send them a little something.

992
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 3: This is one of the most deranged emails I've ever received.

993
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:11,200
Speaker 3: Everything that happened here is beyond what I could possibly imagine.

994
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 4: The twist driving five hours Yeah, I'm going five hours

995
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 4: ago hang out with this woman I used to hook

996
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:20,360
Speaker 4: up with in her new husband. They're like back together.

997
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 4: I Josh, he could have been killed. La has board

998
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:28,440
Speaker 4: game spot man Like, I don't know what to tell you, truly.

999
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, let's give credit to this woman.

1000
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 3: She's really just doing an incredible job. She's Josh it interested.

1001
00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:38,040
Speaker 3: She's got the husband doing everything he can to win

1002
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:40,320
Speaker 3: her back. I think they're all playing board games together.

1003
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:42,760
Speaker 3: She must be the most perfect person in the world.

1004
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:46,799
Speaker 4: Now, she like exemplifies an expression I don't understand it all.

1005
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:50,759
Speaker 4: She's having her cake and eating it too. I do

1006
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:52,919
Speaker 4: not understand it. I might have even said it wrong,

1007
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,160
Speaker 4: but I think this is a clear example of someone

1008
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:58,120
Speaker 4: having cake and eating it. I think that she's your

1009
00:48:58,120 --> 00:48:59,399
Speaker 4: cake and fucking it too.

1010
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:06,120
Speaker 3: Okay, So, assuming that Josh needs to send these people

1011
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 3: a gift, what do you send you?

1012
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: Know?

1013
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:10,240
Speaker 2: This love triangle?

1014
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:16,239
Speaker 4: I got you board Games's games. There's a ton of them,

1015
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,480
Speaker 4: so you know which ones they have because you spent

1016
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:19,920
Speaker 4: a week playing them. I'm sure you got all the

1017
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,960
Speaker 4: way down to fucking you know, Railroad Tycoon before we

1018
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:25,320
Speaker 4: were like, let's figure something out. There are some great

1019
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 4: board games, and you know what they're into, right, I know,

1020
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,359
Speaker 4: I'm sounding like you thirded you're really aware of what

1021
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 4: their preferences are. You know, you're versat all.

1022
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:34,839
Speaker 1: So.

1023
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 3: Assume that they I mean, it was just a sexual

1024
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 3: fantasia this entire week, just with the occasional board game.

1025
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:47,560
Speaker 2: I think board games are a perfect thing. And I

1026
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,040
Speaker 2: also think it's a nice slight because you send them

1027
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:52,480
Speaker 2: board games and it's a little like you didn't quite

1028
00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:55,399
Speaker 2: cut it with your board games. Maybe tried this on.

1029
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 4: For these are some elite board games that us LA

1030
00:49:58,200 --> 00:49:58,839
Speaker 4: people play.

1031
00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:02,080
Speaker 3: Right, then maybe there's you know, you're kind of giving

1032
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:05,280
Speaker 3: a new crack to the relationship. Maybe it cracks wide open,

1033
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,839
Speaker 3: and then the opportunity will present itself again. Maybe she

1034
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 3: comes back to LA.

1035
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,279
Speaker 4: But it's probably easier to find someone to date in

1036
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 4: your hometown. Day married woman who lives across the country

1037
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:18,880
Speaker 4: five hours from the nearest friend of yours.

1038
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:20,600
Speaker 2: For all we know, she doesn't live there.

1039
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 3: Either she might have you know, various romances happening all

1040
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 3: over the country.

1041
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, she's got like eleven fake families and shit,

1042
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:29,920
Speaker 4: she's just like changing wigs in the car and stuff.

1043
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:34,439
Speaker 3: It's kind of a gone girl situation that we've got

1044
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:37,560
Speaker 3: on our hands. She's dyeing her hair at the gas station.

1045
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:40,160
Speaker 3: She's going to Big Lots for a new outfit every

1046
00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 3: three days. Josh, I mean thank you for I mean, look,

1047
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:49,279
Speaker 3: do whatever you want. You've this experience is one that

1048
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:52,759
Speaker 3: few people can claim they've had. And you've obviously left

1049
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 3: out some erotic details that we probably all would have appreciated.

1050
00:50:57,560 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, don't make us fill them in, right.

1051

Speaker 3: I hope you enjoyed your trip, Josh, and I'm sure

1052

00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:29,680
Speaker 4: was a true delight. You're I mean, I know you're funny,

1060
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:31,719
Speaker 4: and so that's not enough of a pass for me

1061
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,520
Speaker 4: to like someone. I'm always like that. We are like

1062
00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:36,160
Speaker 4: this person's an asshole. I'm like, I know, but at

1063
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,440
Speaker 4: least they're funny. It could be worse. It could be

1064
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 4: not funny.

1065
00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:41,920
Speaker 2: Oh, an unfunny asshole.

1066
00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:45,719
Speaker 4: No plea again by on being a funny asshole my

1067
00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:48,840
Speaker 4: whole life.

1068
00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:53,560
Speaker 3: Listener, This is the end of the podcast. I hope

1069
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:58,239
Speaker 3: you go out there and find your North Carolina romance

1070
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:01,440
Speaker 3: and get hangled up in something, or get in a

1071
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:03,759
Speaker 3: boat and row yourself across a misty lake.

1072
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:05,720
Speaker 2: Bring me with you, please.

1073
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:09,920
Speaker 3: I need the fog, I need the garfieldness this and

1074
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:10,680
Speaker 3: then I can die.

1075
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:13,040
Speaker 2: So everyone go off.

1076
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:15,920
Speaker 4: Ooh, that's a good deal. If someone does take you

1077
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:17,800
Speaker 4: on the rowboat in the fog, they do get to

1078
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 4: kill you. Yeah, I think guarant totally fair offer. That's

1079
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 4: you should put that in your will.

1080
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,800
Speaker 3: I mean, I do actually have something similar in my will,

1081
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:29,239
Speaker 3: which is going to be the well, not my grandchildren,

1082
00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:31,200
Speaker 3: but my grand nieces and nephews have to push me.

1083
00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:31,840
Speaker 2: Out of a plane.

1084
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:32,640
Speaker 4: Ooh.

1085
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:34,480
Speaker 3: I like to get the money and then I get

1086
00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:37,799
Speaker 3: the thrill, but I think that that's also a nice

1087
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,600
Speaker 3: equivalent getting, you know, row me across the thing, chop

1092
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,839
Speaker 4: I get to see them enough. And then I'd get

1093
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:55,320
Speaker 4: to sleep as late as I want.

1094
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:57,600
