Speaking of did you guys ever listen 32 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: to Emotion by Carly Rage? I remember she was like, yo, 33 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,119 Speaker 1: you don't sleep on Carly Ray. And I did listen 34 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: to it. It didn't speak to me, but I understand 35 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: the energy of that song, So I'm not gonna shame 36 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: you for liking Carly Rage. Did stop. It caused me 37 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: to feel invincible. I walked into traffic and broke a leg, 38 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: so and I walked into a bus. You, Hannah, but 39 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: what's your favorite musical moment? It so much makes me 40 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: feel invincible. What's a song that I remember when I 41 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: was listening to like like n LP Neural Linguistic Programming. 42 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: When I was looking about that, there was like a 43 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: state that you want to get into, a confident state. 44 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: And they say sometimes songs can put you in this 45 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: sort of mental const like this higher level of confidence. Ironically, 46 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: this song that is really obscure electronic track by an 47 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: artist called Ben Frost called the Theory of Machines, and 48 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: like it's like an eight minute long song that just 49 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: gets more and more intense, and like by the end, 50 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: I feel like I could go out there and just 51 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: score triple double in these nine year olds at the 52 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: mc A. Yeah, of course, Miles is very you know, 53 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 1: obscure and cool and uh the beginning of bombs over 54 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: Bagdad always does it for me? Wu Tang Seventh Chamber 55 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: Part two when the beat comes in does it for me? 56 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: And then a bunch of Walkman songs actually the Rat 57 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: in the New Year Victory. Those all make me feel invincible. 58 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: Oh nice, Okay, okay, okay, I'll see another one. Do 59 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: you guys ever fight? So this is from Cuban Fan. 60 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: I remember last thing you did a K and you 61 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: correct me. Cuban fan three asks, do you guys ever 62 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: fight argue off the air? Sometimes I hear Jack's tone 63 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: and he sounds like he's bottling a lot of rage. 64 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: We do not fight off the air. We don't even 65 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: really talk off the air. Yeah, it's like the second 66 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 1: strict policy, the second Nick has stopped on the recording. 67 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: I act like I don't know Jack, and then it's 68 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: very tense because he is. I like, I wonder why 69 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: they think you're bottling a lot of rage. Yeah, it's interesting. 70 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: It might be that. Like my voice sometimes gets shaky, 71 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: but that's just because I'm getting emotional or intentional tremors. 72 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: Were nervous or intention tremor, But that never happens with 73 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: my voice. That's just my hands. But that is something 74 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: that I have where the more fine the motor function 75 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: that I try to do, the more delicate, the more 76 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: my handshakes. So that is one of the many curses 77 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,119 Speaker 1: I live with. Hit him up for some frontier surgery. 78 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: I don't know where we started working together less than 79 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: a year ago. We don't really I'm still in that 80 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: phase where I'm way too you know, scared to be 81 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: mean to Miles. But eventually I'll get there where I'm 82 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: just gonna be. Yeah, because Dan O'Brien has told me 83 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: about how you were Cracked just ripping people's heads off. 84 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: That's why they worked so well, guys. It was under 85 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: the threat of just annihilation. Yeah. This actually leads into 86 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: this other one at justin T seven and many other 87 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: people have asked, how did you and I meet? Do 88 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: we know each other for the show? What was what 89 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: was it like putting this whole thing together? Jack and 90 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: I met because her majesty, my girlfriend, used to be 91 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 1: the head of production at Cracked. And from there I 92 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: was just kind of going to a little office parties 93 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: getting to know everybody. And then Jack and I started 94 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: kind of like looking at each other's sneakers and each 95 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: other's eyes, and we're like, okay, you might be from 96 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: the same planet. Uh. And then and I guess one 97 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 1: of the first moves was like when you asked me 98 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: to read to sort of audition for the Personal Experience 99 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 1: podcast that Robert Evans was doing, right, and then Brandon Johnson, 100 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: who was one of the best guests we've had and 101 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: it recently got that gig uh. And then so I 102 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: stopped talking to Jack completely and then and I wanted 103 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: him to be nice to me again, so I hired 104 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: him for this gig. No, it was actually a tryout process. 105 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: So the first person I had talked to when I 106 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 1: I know I was leaving Cracked was Miles girlfriend is actually, 107 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: I think I've said before, one of the smartest people 108 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: I know in this industry. And so I just kind 109 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,559 Speaker 1: of told her my plan to do a daily show 110 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: and that I was, you know, gonna need a co host. 111 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: And she was like, oh, you know, Miles is looking 112 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 1: for something maybe, and I was like, oh, great, she's 113 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: trying to sell me her boyfriend. And I turned out 114 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 1: and then we tried out like twenty different people and 115 00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: Miles was the best. So that's how that happened. It 116 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 1: was a true meritocracy mixed with nepotism, y'allah. But also 117 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: when he first came to the Cracked Christmas party, I 118 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: was like, Rosie, your boyfriend so cool, Like where does 119 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: he shop for his clothes and stuff like that? And 120 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: she was like, yeah, my secret shop out of the 121 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: Delia's catalog. Yeah, and I think also doing this show. 122 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: Uh yeah. Before this, I was working at Conde Nast 123 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: making like videos for like Vogue and Vanity Fair and 124 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 1: Wired magazine, and I needed to I don't know what 125 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 1: the political climate. I was really looking to get my 126 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: opinion out there or at least contribute to something that 127 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: society could take in rather than me just convincing Jaden 128 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: Smith to make really weird looks into camera for videos. 129 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: And I legit tried to apply for something that crooked 130 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: media because I was like, yo, I gotta get out 131 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: of this, like this digital thing I'm getting into. And 132 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: then yeah, lo and behold. It was like serendipitous. That 133 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: shocked me up because I was like, I'm looking to 134 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: do this exact thing crooked media here. Yeah, I just 135 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: got crooked backs because we have scis and a second 136 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: rate crooked media. Yeah, Miles is uh used to be 137 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: like a viral video machine. So that's something somebody was like, 138 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: are you guys ever gonna start making videos? If we do, 139 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: you guys will hear about it, because because I get hits. Yeah, 140 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: all right, if there is a bio pick who would 141 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: be in the cast, they're specifically asking about cracked stuff, 142 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: but there's too many people to cast there. So that 143 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: is That's the one where someone said, like Soren looks 144 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: so young, so yeah, it was just a guy's a 145 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: thirst post I've seen soaring in the flesh and looks 146 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: like he's do you remember when the crypt Keeper and yeah, 147 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: or a Game of Thrones when Homegirl takes a necklace off, 148 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: looks like except much younger. Who would play I don't know. 149 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: Jack is eating an ice cream. So if you guys 150 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: are looking, super producer Nick Stumps just bolted out of 151 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: his seat. So what's that sound, it's Jack having an 152 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: ice ice cream? So good though, Yeah, we're treating ourselves. 153 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: So for me, A lot of people jokingly say it 154 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: looked like Mark to Costco, who is the host of 155 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: Iron Chef America. Yeah, he's like this Hawaiian dude. Yeah, 156 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: just as racially ambiguous as I am. H. So, I 157 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: guess I could have someone older than me, uh my 158 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: tolder than me play me in the film, But I'm 159 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: sure there's many young uns out there with the blazon 160 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: DNA that could probably could plain me. But I think 161 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: if my future self I would be marked to Costcos. 162 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: The person who asked this question said, I should be 163 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: Logan Lherman, who is somebody who's too young for me 164 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: to know who it is, it seems like. But sure, 165 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 1: I think I would go like David Schwimmer or Swimmer 166 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: or Matt Dylan, but only if he reprised his character 167 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 1: from something about Mary pat Healy playing Jack O'Brien and 168 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: heally as Jack O'Brian. Uh, this is other one. Uh. 169 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: Someone asked, let me just pump my own ego up. 170 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: How did MOUs perfect the vocal crack on the Yeah 171 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: at the beginning, I don't know. I like microphones a lot, 172 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: and I'm just liking your my own voice. So there's 173 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: really no secret to a aside from my ego. Yeah, 174 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,719 Speaker 1: my house can do all the things I do. That's 175 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: one thing that I'll slowly probably be doing more of. 176 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: I was not in my comfort zone in the beginning 177 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: when we first started recording, which I'm sure you can hear. God, 178 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: if we listen to those old episodes, we probably sound 179 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,199 Speaker 1: like robots, or at least it feels like we were 180 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: more robotic. No, I mean I probably sound exactly the 181 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: same because you're pro Yeah, well i've been. I've been 182 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: doing a podcast for a while. But yeah, I also 183 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 1: was shooting lasers at you with my eye the whole time. Yeah, 184 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: that was very distracting. Yeah, literal lasers quite quite literally. 185 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: If d Z started under the Obama administration, what would 186 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: have been your favorite stories to discuss? From Angela Martinez. 187 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: Do you think we could have done this show under 188 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: the Obama administration is my question to you, Miles. Yes, 189 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: of course we could have, because I think there's still 190 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: the Obama presidency was not perfect. That was not a 191 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: perfect time in American history. I think, I guess there 192 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 1: was less controversy, so we're able to focus less on 193 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 1: th things that were controversial. Maybe the outrage level may 194 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: not have been quite as high. But there are many 195 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 1: things too that I think we could have advocated for 196 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: during the Obama administration, like really having Congress do something 197 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: with their majority and things like that. But I don't know. 198 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: It's hard to know because I think we're in such 199 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:24,679 Speaker 1: a cataclysmic, chaotic era that it sort of begs for 200 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: people to kind of help navigate it a bit. Yeah, yeah, 201 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: I mean the Daily Show existed during the Obama administration. 202 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: I mean, there's plenty of absurdity to point out in 203 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: the world. I think maybe we're just more politics centric 204 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: because Trump is really affecting our day to day so 205 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 1: it's easy to talk about him all the time, but 206 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: there would be no shortage of things to be outraged about, 207 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: whether it's in America or the rest of the world. 208 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: During the Obama administration, we would have basically been like 209 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: The Man Show. Have you guys heard of The Man Show? Yeah? 210 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: Wildly problematic? Yeah, exactly, you guys would have we oh 211 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 1: my goodness, like yeah, Jack, I don't know man Like 212 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 1: Who's the Hottest? Who's the hottest chick? In Congress? To 213 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 1: you at Layla lately asked could you give us a 214 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: list of all the podcasts you listen to? You're always 215 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:15,839 Speaker 1: referencing really good ones, miles do you have? I love 216 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: UH the Arts Cast from artsblog dot com, which is 217 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: an arsenal podcast. Shout out to uh Andrew over there, 218 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 1: and I don't know him personally, but I listened to 219 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: podcast really regularly. I like The Football Ramble, which is 220 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: another UH football soccer centric podcast. I do like Improv 221 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: for Humans from time to time because I am a 222 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: huge UCB Original Four fans, So I like Matt best 223 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: Or even though he's whiny sometimes. Uh what else? Yeah, 224 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: I mean to the usual stuff, you know, I listened 225 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: to like this American life pretty regularly. Uh. And then 226 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: but you know, I found myself as my commute has 227 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: been shortened, I used to have longer commutes, and that 228 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: coincided with me listening to so many podcasts at a 229 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: much more intense rate that I kind of whittled it 230 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: down to, like, Oh, and obviously Bodega Boys, right, obviously 231 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: that's off top. Will always be the biggest Z and 232 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: Merrow fan. As you could tell, we referenced Deza Row 233 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 1: stuff all the time. And yes, those they're like some 234 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,199 Speaker 1: of my favorites. Um. One that is kind of obscure 235 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 1: that one of our fans actually suggested to me is 236 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: Rational Security that has a bunch of kind of people 237 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,599 Speaker 1: who used to be in national security and report on 238 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: national security talking about national security issues on a weekly basis. 239 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. And Introducing is a podcast where I 240 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: only started listening to it because one of the guys 241 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 1: from Chapo Trap House was on there talking about Kanye 242 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: and the aftermath of the whole Kanye meltdown. And I 243 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: can't say anything about the podcast in general, but that 244 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: episode is really really great. The Kanye West episode of 245 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: and Introducing chop Out trap House. Last podcast on the Left, 246 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 1: You guys, is so good? Reply all is good. Slow 247 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: Burn was great. Um. I don't know if I think 248 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: they're going to do a second season of slow Burn, 249 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,199 Speaker 1: but the first one was basically telling you what Watergate 250 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: was like in the moment. Obviously, Culture Kings the Bechdel 251 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: Cast Ethnically Ambiguous raised by TV with John Gabriel, Yeah, 252 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: former guest John Gabris and Lauren lap Kiss. Stuff you 253 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 1: should know is the name of this obscure podcast you 254 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 1: guys have probably never heard of. Still Processing with Wesley 255 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: Morris and Jenna Wortham is a great podcast, revisionist history 256 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: of the Malcolm Gladwell podcast. Literally reading you all of 257 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: this and I'm sorry about this. I'm giving you all 258 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: the Hey, I think they wake up in there, all right? 259 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 1: And are you talking? R E M? Read me? All right? 260 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: That's that's halfway down. How about this one a little 261 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: a little more process wise? Brent Liberatti at Sir Brent's 262 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: Worth asks, how cut down are your episodes? Is what's 263 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: released pretty much the entire recording session or is there 264 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: a lot that gets marked? It pretty much is the 265 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: entire episode. We tighten it up a bit, but for 266 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: the most part you are hearing the recording session. Yeah, 267 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: and then we should get the answer to that question 268 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 1: from producer Nick Stump, and he'd be like, Jesus, you 269 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: should hear these guys before we cut them down the 270 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: ms and os, and I was saying fuck so much. 271 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 1: I think another person said his MOS another word other 272 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: than fuck. Fuck. No, I don't did they really, but 273 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't know. I don't know if 274 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: they were taking a shot at me, But either way, 275 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: I think it's a beautiful word. Somebody asked should we 276 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: adopt the Mario Kart. The closer you are to first place, 277 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: the less useful power ups you get ideology for our economy. 278 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: Saw this on a forum and think it might be 279 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: the best analogy ever. Yeah, I think we should do that. 280 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: I think our text code is kind of written with 281 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: that general idea in mind. But I do think that 282 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: we could make that a stronger, you know, computer assistance 283 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: for poor people and they're not extremely wealthy, So that's 284 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: a good idea. What about this Jack at dead Knab 285 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: Nicholas spear As, What is the best sandwich? What is 286 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: the best sandwich?

Unfortunate name of conscering the time 290 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: we're in right now, But that is a beautiful sandwich. 291 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: But I think let's limit it. What's the best sandwich 292 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: you can get in l A? For you, Jack, what's 293 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: your favorite sandwich sandwich you can get in l A. 294 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: That's even tough too, because we got a lot of sandwiches. 295 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: I'll tell you one of my favorites right now, the 296 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: chicken salad sandwich at Base Cities Deli.

It's the bread. 301 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: It half the battle is the bread, Okay. Krista Diamond asks, 302 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: what do you guys think about the Vegas Golden Knights. 303 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: I live in a bubble of rampant Golden Knight fandom 304 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: here in Las Vegas, herself included, and I'm curious to 305 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: hear what people outside of our fair city think about 306 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: this inaugural season.

They having a great season. 308 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: They shocked everyone. Um. I'm not as tapped into the 309 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 1: NHL as I used to be, but I always keep 310 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: my eye understanding and things like that. So I mean, 311 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: my take is it seemed like out of the tragedy 312 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: from the shooting last year in October, the team is like, 313 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know if that had anything 314 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: to do with the performance, but the team is playing. 315 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: I was playing very well at the time I was watching, 316 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: so good for them. I always like to see expansion 317 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: teams doing well, and I didn't consider Vegas a big 318 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: hockey city, but hey, you never know, which reminds me 319 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: that a lot many people have also asked me about 320 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: hockey because I've talked about playing hockey for most of 321 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: my life. And I'll give you the breakdown. I started 322 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 1: playing hockey when I was about four years old, and 323 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: I played all the way through high school. Uh. Someone 324 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: I think Michael Constable asked if I was like scouted. No, 325 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: I was never playing at that level by the time 326 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: I was like thirteen, I was playing less and less competitively. 327 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: Fun fact, one of my teammates on the Pasadena Maple 328 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 1: Leaves was CNN now CNN anchor and host Nick Valencia. 329 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 1: So that man on CNN was one of my teammates. 330 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: He is a fucking insane winger. Check him out. Is 331 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: nice with it?

Yeah, you know, 357 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I just I I always have a place 358 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 1: in my heart for like the Rackets Records kind of ship. Uh. 359 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: Most Deaths Black on both Sides is one album that 360 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 1: I just man like really kind of opened up my 361 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: mind a bit when that, Yeah, I think that came 362 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: out in I guess mine would be hm, jay Z 363 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 1: Hard Knock Li Volume two, uh illmatic and strictly built 364 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: for Cuban links there you go would probably be my three. 365 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: See so pull up and then it said East Coast 366 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: or West Coast very different. Uh, I'm from the West Coast. 367 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: I always be like, what but I love East Coast 368 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 1: hip hop too. I like them all man, the nineties 369 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: was just such a gold narrave for hip hop that 370 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 1: it's hard for me to I honestly can't pick sides 371 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 1: and like to do that East first question. And in fact, 372 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: the people, the rappers who have chosen not to pick 373 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 1: a side, I think are creating the best music. Like 374 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 1: Kendrick is, you know, heavily influenced by all all coasts 375 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 1: and you know, has really brought in both sides together, 376 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 1: Like I think that's that's probably the way to go. 377 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: There's a couple of good rap albums out last Friday, 378 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 1: I guess at this point since people are listening to 379 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: this on Monday at certified genius Genius. But I'm guessing 380 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: as a pun a play on the name Jen is 381 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: who does your scripts? Shout out to your kick ask writers? 382 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, we have two writers, Sam Rownman and 383 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: Jim McNabb who basically, I guess it's also answer other 384 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: people's questions about sort of how do we comb through 385 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: the news? Jack listening to a lot of the morning 386 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 1: podcasts for sure, right, don't you listen to almost every 387 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 1: single daily podcast? Yeah, And like a bunch of weekly 388 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: news ones kind of cram all those into my brain. Yeah, 389 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:10,479 Speaker 1: I just comb like every news and political website daily. 390 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: That's what a lot of my day is, and just 391 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: internalizing all that. And then we kind of come in 392 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: the morning and start putting stuff in this bloated Google 393 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: doc that we have, uh, and just start throwing around ideas, 394 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: and then our writers will actually put in like kind 395 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: of uh sort of more flushed out stories for us 396 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: to do. But in terms of writing, we don't really 397 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 1: this isn't really scripted. I mean we do write our 398 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 1: sort of commentary about it, but yeah, like I don't 399 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: know if script is the best. It's more like a 400 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: paragraph that one of us has thought up on like 401 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: the subject or like that kind of explains where we're 402 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: coming from. The writers kind of right out longer things, 403 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: and then we pick and choose from what they wrote 404 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 1: out like what we're going to talk about, and then 405 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: you know, I let the rest is just kind of 406 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: using those as a jumping off point and kind of 407 00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 1: coming up with stuff. In studio d Day, dingle Opper asks, 408 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: if I get you in, will you come to Burning 409 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: Man and then let me interview you on your experience 410 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:11,439 Speaker 1: in parentheses, I can get you in. Yeah, me too. Alright, 411 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 1: so hold on, but I have to do the scumbag 412 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: Silicon Valley version where all the poor people, the poor 413 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: people have to stay away from me. I like, I 414 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 1: want to do the problematic version of Burning Man. No, 415 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,399 Speaker 1: I mean I would, Yeah, I would. I mean we 416 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 1: should do that at some point, probably not in the 417 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 1: next couple of years from me, since I have a 418 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: very young children that I bring them to just the 419 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: whole family naked. Oh yeah. Other people were giving us heat. 420 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 1: We're saying like, oh, the biggest party is uh the 421 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 1: Kentucky derby a lot of people it's in and then 422 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,679 Speaker 1: other people are like, actually, if you think about it, 423 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 1: burning Man becomes a city suddenly in the middle of nowhere. 424 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 1: So yeah, I think burning Man has them all in 425 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: terms of size of party. And just when I was 426 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: first starting out the Cracked podcast, one of the very 427 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: early episodes, I just interviewed Michael's Wayne about his time 428 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: at burning Man and it was just one of the 429 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: more interesting conversations I had in my entire time doing 430 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: that podcast. So I I am intrigued by that event 431 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:17,959 Speaker 1: and doing that sober that'll be interesting. How about this one. Uh. 432 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: This is from Salvia Plath, who she tweets at us 433 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 1: a lot. I'm not going to assume your gender. Uh, 434 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: but at Jack, I just think remember that on an 435 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: episode of the Crack podcast, you said that capitalism was good. 436 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: Do you still believe that? Huh that's a good question. Uh. 437 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: I think overall, I don't think it's wholly good. Yeah, 438 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 1: I would definitely say I think that there. I don't 439 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 1: think really any ideology I've ever heard of is wholly 440 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: good in like a pure sense. I think it's done 441 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: a lot of great things, and I guess I would 442 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: probably side in the direction of whoever said that quote 443 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: about it being terrible, except when you compare to all 444 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: the other systems we have for running a world. Okay, 445 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,959 Speaker 1: this is another one. It says as easy, what are 446 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 1: the skills you need to produce or super produce a podcast? Uh? 447 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 1: The skills I mean being a producer is really just 448 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: about being organized and remembering to facilitate the production is 449 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 1: as much as possible. We're lucky that between Anna getting 450 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: all the guests in here and Nick and the team 451 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: of editors getting it sounding right, Jack and I have 452 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 1: to do very little thinking in terms of that part 453 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 1: of it, and we can focus on our thing. But 454 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 1: I think in general, just gotta be you know, down 455 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: to collaborate. That's really, That's really all it is. I 456 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 1: think in my past I've met producers who don't like 457 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 1: to collaborate and just want to control everything, and that 458 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: doesn't work because productions are ultimately collaborations. So just have 459 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 1: a spirit of collaboration. Just for some backgrounds to producer 460 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: Nick Stump, his background is in the music industry, is 461 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: a really talented musician, and the producer on Ajsnier is 462 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: just very knowledgeable of the comedy scene in l A. So, yeah, 463 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: they are the best at what they do and we're 464 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: really lucky, and a lot of what is good about 465 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: the show just kind of invisibly or silently comes through 466 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: from from their work and the work they put in. Absolutely, oh, 467 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: this is a good one. At Mike Mann at not 468 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: that Mike Man asks, is there a way back from Trump? 469 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: Is um m hmmm. Yes. I mean inevitably, everything evolves, 470 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: So I think there is a way back, but it's 471 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: very possible too that it could be a very long 472 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: way back. Yeah, I hope there's not. My God, my 473 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: biggest fear is that there has been permanent damage done 474 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 1: and there will be long lasting damage, and no doubt 475 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: about that. I don't. I mean, I guess if Trump 476 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,400 Speaker 1: Trump is um is interchangeable with you know, racism and xenophobia, 477 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: probably not in our time. Will there be away back 478 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: from that? Uh? I mean, unless you know, we all 479 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: open our hearts and except loving m But I don't know, 480 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: if Jack, what do you think? I mean, no way 481 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,479 Speaker 1: back in terms of ever returning to the world as 482 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 1: it was before Trump is um. I think we will 483 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 1: be wiser. We will be stuck with some really shitty judges, uh, 484 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: who will probably do some lasting, permanent damage to the country. 485 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,160 Speaker 1: And you know, I think in the same way that 486 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 1: you know, having streaming video of all the horrible police 487 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: shootings and all that ship has you know, wisened people 488 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 1: are open people's eyes too, you know, bad ship that 489 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 1: is going on. I think Trump Trump is um has 490 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 1: done the same thing to sort of some nascent aspects 491 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 1: of you know, the American populists that people weren't taken 492 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 1: seriously enough. And like, I don't think there's any way 493 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 1: to get people back to being as politically disengaged as 494 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 1: they were prior to Trump is um, I think people 495 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: are now too aware of you know, what's at stake, 496 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 1: So I I don't think there's any way back, and 497 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: I think in some ways that's a good thing. Kevin 498 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: Something at Kevin Something literally his name asks why doesn't 499 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 1: Jack ever know what to do with his hands? In 500 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: the daily pick um. Yeah, so this is partially like 501 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: they're there are a couple of pictures that people really 502 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: seized on where I was intentionally doing funny things with 503 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: my hands. But for the most part that is because 504 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: I'm being self conscious or like trying to be self 505 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: referential about the fact that I really just don't know 506 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: what to do with my hands playing it. Uh, not 507 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: not in just the daily pictures, but just in general. 508 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, it's It's just always been a thing, like 509 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: when I walk into a room and there are people 510 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: in that room. I like I remember specifically walking into 511 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: a lunch room in high school and like just the 512 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: second I knew there was like one person looking at me, 513 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: like I just like suddenly be conscious of the fact 514 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 1: that I didn't know what to do with my hands. 515 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: I would like put him in my pocket. But then 516 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: like try walking with your hands in your pocket, it 517 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: like feels weird. So yeah, then I would put them 518 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: like on my back like Forrest Gump at the end 519 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 1: of Forrest Gump. Anyways, Yeah, yeah, how about you, Miles, 520 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 1: Why do you know what to do with your hands? Well? Uh, 521 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:29,439 Speaker 1: little known fact is my father would actually do seminars 522 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: on hand placement for photographs as a photographer. So I 523 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 1: grew up in a house of being drilled on proper 524 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: hand placement and imagery and photographs. So I guess this 525 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: is my privilege. You make it look so natural I do. Uh. 526 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:41,959 Speaker 1: And guys, it's a lot of hard work, you know. 527 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 1: So don't don't come down on Jack because he you know, 528 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: he wasn't raised the way I was, and that's not 529 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 1: his fault. I just have my hands floating out in 530 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: front of me right now. Oh, this is a good 531 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: question for you, Jack at Comic and Sans Asked, Jack 532 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: has discovered some of my favorite Internet content creators. What 533 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: do you look for when you're sourcing talent? Because yeah, 534 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 1: I feel like created a thing at Cracked that was 535 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: just churning out some real heavy hitters in terms of ideas, 536 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: content creation, humor. Do you look for something, I mean, 537 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: it's really just the stuff that gets me excited personally, 538 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: and the stuff that people and writers who make me 539 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 1: laugh out loud is really what it comes down to. 540 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 1: And you know, there's just when you're get in a 541 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: room with somebody and they're really talented, there's just a 542 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,959 Speaker 1: certain energy that starts creating itself. So I've just been 543 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: lucky and enough to run into the right people and 544 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 1: have good enough chemistry with them to realize how great 545 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: they are. There you go, yeah, it's not a helpful answer, 546 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: but well not if that it felt helpful. Um, people 547 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: are strange, asked a few weeks ago, I heard you 548 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: mentioned merch when you'll started doing live shows, but will 549 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: the merch also be available online?

Somebody asked, who is your dream guest? 559 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 1: Who's your dream guest? My dream guest would be man 560 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: Mine Carl Tart, but he would never come back on. 561 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: He would never come back. Oh yeah, people asking about 562 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: the band, there's no band. That's just fun, that's just jokes. Um. 563 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: You know my dream guest maybe Arson Banker, the Arsenal manager. 564 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: I would really talk. Tommy would have nothing to do 565 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: with the kind too. That would be a great episode. 566 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 1: What does Jamie Loftus help smell like? These are all 567 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:56,479 Speaker 1: from Lauren Pescel. Jamie smells wonderful, very very savory, and 568 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: like a zamboni at the same time. You describe me 569 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: a hot sandwich. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Uh yeah. What 570 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 1: would Jack do if he found out his kids stole 571 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: or hit another kid? If he stole another kid, I 572 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: would be fucking amazing. I would be so impressed for 573 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 1: another kid. If he hit another kid, I mean that's 574 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: something that just happens among two year olds. And I 575 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 1: have had this experience both having him hit another kid 576 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: and be hit by other kids, and it's hard not 577 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 1: to laugh. And you just have to, you know, get 578 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: in there and say no. And it's very weird because 579 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 1: I also have a lot of experience having dogs, and 580 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, bad, bad, And then I realized that 581 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: I'm doing the thing that you do when you train dogs. 582 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: So I'm not a good parent. That that's a really 583 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 1: good question for somebody who's a better parent. Someone just 584 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: pulled the curtain back on Jack. Also, this is when 585 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: I pushed I pushed his face in it. Make him 586 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: smell it, all right? This is what like um at 587 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 1: scrint asks, can you guys talk about Ethan Hawk for 588 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: a bit? Finally, I'm so, you know, I really laughed 589 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: at this because it's stupid.

When I first 593 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: moved to New York in like two thousand four, Ethan 594 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: Hawk was out there.
