WEBVTT - #65: Beat Boxing, Bad at Math and Brady Bunch BS 0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:04.240 Hot dogs and tailgating synonymous with one another. Football season. Yeah, 0:00:04.240 --> 0:00:05.920 it still is, at least at the time of this 0:00:05.960 --> 0:00:09.320 podcast recording. That's right, Um, we want you. Although I'm 0:00:09.320 --> 0:00:11.440 a Jets fan, he's really not football season anymore. I 0:00:11.440 --> 0:00:14.560 gotta be honest. You've already moved on. Yeah, I've moved on, 0:00:14.600 --> 0:00:16.919 but I'm not how many days still pictures and catchers. 0:00:17.000 --> 0:00:19.520 I can't wait till February. It's a couple of months, 0:00:19.520 --> 0:00:21.840 and that's another time for hot dogs. Hot Dogs are 0:00:21.840 --> 0:00:24.040 good all year around. Baseball and hot dogs are like 0:00:24.200 --> 0:00:25.880 you know, you can't get much more American than that. 0:00:26.079 --> 0:00:28.520 And we want you to impress your friends with Feltman's. 0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:32.160 Feltman's of Coney Island. We discovered them. We couldn't believe 0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:34.320 the taste. First of all, we couldn't believe the story. 0:00:34.760 --> 0:00:37.040 I told you, my mother grew up eating these hot dogs. 0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:39.199 This is how long they've been making good hot day 0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:41.560 back she listened. She had them when she was a kid, 0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:43.720 and now the fact I get to have them and 0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:45.600 share them with my kids. It's a big thing in 0:00:45.600 --> 0:00:46.959 our family. And my mother got a big kick out 0:00:46.960 --> 0:00:48.559 of that. She's like, I remember those hot dogs. They 0:00:48.600 --> 0:00:51.120 were great, so she made me promise to get her some. 0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:54.800 Now that's right. Feltman's invented that hot dog eighteen sixty seven. 0:00:54.960 --> 0:00:58.000 My mother is not that all and uh, of course 0:00:58.240 --> 0:01:00.680 we all know the story by now. Nathan worked for him, 0:01:00.880 --> 0:01:04.760 and then Nathan left and started that other franchise. But 0:01:04.840 --> 0:01:06.720 the other thing that we want to talk about and 0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:10.080 focus on is that at Feltman's they didn't take any shortcuts. 0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:13.640 They are all natural. There's no nitrates, there's no fillers. 0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:16.240 So that's why it's a cleaner tasting hot dog. And 0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:18.480 it's not as it's not salty. You don't have to 0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:20.160 drink like five gallons of water when you're done with 0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:22.920 how many unnatural ingredients for in developments? Thank you? I 0:01:22.959 --> 0:01:25.640 want to count that again one more time. Zero, thank you. Uh. 0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:29.839 Feltman's of course available at King's Balduci's and now they're 0:01:29.880 --> 0:01:32.760 here at Stopping Shop and if you live near Mrs Green's, 0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:35.480 they're there too. I used to have Mrs Green's near me, 0:01:35.560 --> 0:01:38.160 but they went out of business.

You'll taste the difference, and 0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:53.280 if you like mustard, Feltman's mustard is designed to go 0:01:53.320 --> 0:02:04.440 with the hot dog. Start up, broken boys, start up daughter. 0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:13.239 They're making noise, daughta episode up? What man number? The 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:18.320 Brooklyn Boys?

The song 0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:39.120 that was my That was my hidden talent as a kid. 0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:41.320 The only thing I was good at. Understand why I 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:43.560 was hidden. The only thing I was good at growing up. 0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:46.799 Brody was my my my Compared to your ability to 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:48.840 play sports, I totally believe that was your one skill. 0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:51.160 No I could. I was the human beat box. I 0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:53.560 used to beat box with the best of them. In fact, 0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:56.960 I got a very nice compliment from our boy Spruce earlier. 0:02:57.040 --> 0:02:58.840 Oh he would just summing the hallway and he's busy. 0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:01.160 People say, what do you say about me? He said, 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:05.040 you had a uh something about a Brooklyn beat, about 0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:07.440 a rhythm. I got Brooklyn rhythm. I got some kind 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:09.359 of a rhythm. You don't even know what it was. No, 0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:12.560 because we were recording. Okay, let's be completely transparent. Let's 0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:14.920 pull back the curtain, hold on all right. Well, okay, 0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:17.280 I'm gonna call you on something, because call me when 0:03:17.320 --> 0:03:20.760 you Okay. We just recorded an official version of free 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:23.200 Ship for us. Yes, we went into the studio much 0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:24.679 like you know that. Those are our vocals on the 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.640 No Sleep Till Brooklyn Beast. So we've been singing over 0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:30.840 the original, and it's my fault. I wrote an intro, 0:03:31.400 --> 0:03:35.440 so the part with the shots part um, right, and 0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:38.680 then we've been singing over the original. I wrote a 0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:40.560 parody of the top and then Scary and I sang 0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:42.720 free Ship for us for us, and so I went 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:44.800 in there to do my track. And then when it 0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:47.880 came out, Spruce was standing there with your boy Mario 0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:50.880 and they applause round of a plus for Scary, and 0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:53.560 he said something about me having He said I had 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:55.880 an urban rhythm. I think that's what he said, and 0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:57.080 I think he said he had he had, But I 0:03:57.160 --> 0:04:00.840 can't think that as a huge compliment because because I mean, 0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:03.080 white boys can't sing dance. Here's what you did. But 0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:05.120 I was like, okay, did you want to catch that? 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:07.760 What you didn't get? What did I do?

Hold, okay, I need I 0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:14.360 need a jingle that says not racist, but racial alert 0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:20.479 because you are Okay. If you were playing baseball okay, 0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:23.320 and let's say a star baseball player said you had 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:25.080 a good throwing arm, you'd be like, oh my god, 0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:27.680 like uh, I'll say, David right, I'm a met fan. 0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:30.440 David Wright said I throw really well. No a synderguarde, 0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:33.279 I threw really well. Okay, and you'd be like wow, 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:36.480 because he's he's really good. He knows you're justifying your 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:39.400 ability to have rhythm because the only black guy you 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:41.440 know said that you have rhythm. That's what you just did. 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:43.680 Like keep people like even Spruce said I had But 0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:46.960 that was but that was an unannounced and I'm sorry 0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:49.840 that was I didn't I didn't pine for that. I 0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:52.200 didn't like to say I need you to compliment. You're 0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:55.760 trying to search it for for searching for the words 0:04:55.800 --> 0:04:58.640 you mean unsolicited. I didn't solicit him for coming. That's right, 0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:00.839 it was unsolicited. He came out me. He was like boom, 0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:02.160 I came out of the studio, and that was he 0:05:02.240 --> 0:05:04.200 was the first person I saw. And I took that 0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:06.880 as a huge content you don't have kids, but sometimes 0:05:06.960 --> 0:05:10.120 your kids do things that for an eleven year old, Yeah, 0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:13.480 and you go, that was fantastic. You just threw the 0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:17.080 football unbelievably. Well not notice I didn't say you threw 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:20.200 it unbelievable, because that's not proper. He said, Oh my god, 0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:21.920 what a great spiral. But it was kind of wobbly. 0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:23.479 But you give it. You give him a little credit 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:24.920 because for an eleven year old, it was really good. 0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:26.720 You make it feel good. That's what he did to you. 0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:29.920 So you're saying it was a backhanded compliment. I'm saying 0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:32.039 he was like trying to hume me. You up, buddy, 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:34.159 you up a little bit, make you feel good about yourself. 0:05:34.240 --> 0:05:37.120 I think he I don't think he was that was 0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:39.120 gonna come out of my math. I think that I 0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:41.400 had that. All you did. You went in the studio, 0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:43.880 you listen to the track of me singing it, and 0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:46.960 then you you along with me. You did free ship 0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:49.400 for us. I mean that's not but it was right 0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:51.880 on beat. You're not rhythm. Okay, you're not exactly. I 0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:53.520 thought he was paying me a compliment. If you're now 0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:55.320 you're telling me he's like really making fun of me 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:57.120 and I like exactly, jay Z there you didn't you 0:05:57.160 --> 0:05:59.760 didn't like you know, but it harkens back to a 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:03.120 time when I used to to the Human beat Box 0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:05.000 and that was my hidden town, and all your other 0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:07.400 really white Italian friends from the neighborhood told you you 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:09.640 were good at it. I used to have so we 0:06:09.760 --> 0:06:11.440 used to be in my stoop. A stoop is like 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:14.960 a dumb kid. No, a stoop like that's not sure 0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:16.520 for stupid. I know what it's.

Because you know, you're like, okay, it's 0:10:15.960 --> 0:10:18.640 like you're like, you're pretty fly for a white guy. 0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:21.520 That's what he did to you. You're like, oh, you 0:10:21.679 --> 0:10:23.679 got some you've got some street in you. But he 0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:26.760 met like Park Avenue. He didn't mean like a street. 0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:36.960 Oh my god, hailo rodeo driving streets. Yeah, you don't 0:10:36.960 --> 0:10:44.079 have the main man street. Okay, but yeah, and I 0:10:44.200 --> 0:10:48.920 used to beat box. We're hearing that's everybody quiet room, 0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:54.320 got my lips, Yeah, everybody heard you go. Just now 0:11:05.400 --> 0:11:07.480 that's a little sample. That's a loop. That's okay. Now, 0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:10.040 before you give your opinion, how that sounds to me 0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:12.360 like he just did three sit ups and he's out 0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:14.719 of breath, like he carried his groceries up a flight 0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:18.360 of stairs. No, no, no, no, okay, your expert opinion. 0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:21.439 Being a black guy on our podcast, he's laughing his 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:25.160 ass off because you didn't expect You didn't expect that 0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:27.280 to come out of this mouse. I definitely didn't expect 0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:29.959 that to come out of you. Okay, so would this 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:32.920 would this be a fair analogy when American Idol has 0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:35.560 those people on where all their friends told them they 0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:37.400 were good singers, and then they come on and they 0:11:37.480 --> 0:11:39.720 suck and they go, oh, my friends told me I'm great. 0:11:39.760 --> 0:11:42.120 You guys are deaf because they've been told their whole 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:45.880 life that they're good. It's like it's like the like 0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:48.480 the women who are like, not that attractive, nobody like this. 0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:50.920 We want to hurt their feelings. He should be a model. 0:11:51.240 --> 0:11:52.640 Then they go and they don't get the modeling job, 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:54.920 Like you don't know what they I'm beautiful? Not really. 0:11:55.280 --> 0:11:58.319 So that being said, what were your thoughts on that 0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:02.360 don't work? That? As as a as a fan and 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:05.920 a member of our regular guest of our show and 0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:09.480 a black man from the South, what were your thoughts 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:13.520 give me the juice spruce hidden talent?

You're shooting a J. You shooting J is? Uh? 0:14:19.600 --> 0:14:23.240 It's because because the ball goes into J and it's 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:25.680 all net right, it goes that would that would be 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:31.000 jump shot now that jump shot J T J.

No, you know 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:49.720 it's it's a curve. It's a curvy J, and it 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:52.600 goes straight to the curvy J. One of your favorite 0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:57.360 rappers in the curvy J beat box. All right, okay, 0:14:57.480 --> 0:14:59.280 well that's cool. What about Brody Brodi You don't have 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:02.560 any hidden town. It's nothing. All my talents are very obvious. 0:15:03.160 --> 0:15:05.360 Look at this school not to fold. No, I didn't know. 0:15:05.400 --> 0:15:07.120 I didn't have any hiding talents. That's what I'm saying. 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:10.440 Is there anything that you are good at that to 0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:12.560 this day, after we know each other all these years, 0:15:14.920 --> 0:15:16.840 what is there something like? Because I've never seen you 0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:21.360 with an instrument in your hands theTimes I used to play, 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:23.200 I used to I took guitar lessons for a while, 0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:25.320 and I wouldn't say I play guitar. I will say 0:15:25.400 --> 0:15:29.800 that I was. I was probably um insanely good at 0:15:29.880 --> 0:15:32.080 certain video games when I was growing up, right, Like, 0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:34.200 I would not know that about you. Like I would 0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:36.320 go to college and there was a student union building 0:15:36.360 --> 0:15:38.360 that an arcade. I would start a game and then 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:40.000 the day was over by the time I was done. 0:15:40.080 --> 0:15:42.040 Oh my god, I didn't know that I would lose 0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:45.200 like the whole day Pie, Dragon's Lair, and Gyrus games 0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:46.640 from what I went to school. So I learned that 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:49.160 just now on this podcast, I just learned something about Yeah, 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:51.600 there were games like Crazy Climber. Like some of you 0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:53.960 listening going, what is he talking about? But I would 0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:56.760 I would, I would obsessively practice and get good at it. 0:15:57.200 --> 0:15:58.880 And I would play so long that I would never 0:15:58.960 --> 0:16:01.640 lose and I have to go home. Like people would 0:16:01.680 --> 0:16:03.640 put the quarter up on the on the counter, like 0:16:03.680 --> 0:16:06.840 to go next. There would never be a next. I 0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:09.000 would just go and go and go and defeat the game. Well, 0:16:09.040 --> 0:16:11.000 the game never got defeated. You just keep going. I 0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:12.880 had to stop after a while because at some point 0:16:12.960 --> 0:16:15.520 MS pac Man gets so fast and crazy that you 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:17.800 that it beat you. You can have a lot of 0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:21.000 those games are A lot of them are pattern and 0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:23.040 so if you remember the pattern, like oh, the ships 0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:24.320 are gonna come ou from the right, then the left 0:16:24.360 --> 0:16:26.680 and upper right in the box. That's like Dragon's Lair, 0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:28.280 which was the first laser disc one of the first 0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:32.320 laser disc games. Um, I just memorized it, and my timing, 0:16:32.360 --> 0:16:34.840 my reflexes were excellent, and I got really good. And 0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:38.400 I know I play video games now really good. Yeah, 0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:42.280 but I have an obsessive problem. Yeah, like I already 0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:45.880 kicked you just now. That's why I'm hurting. YEA, wow, 0:16:46.040 --> 0:16:47.480 I can't. I'll tell you what. I can't play video 0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:50.640 games anymore, like uh not long form Like I'll tell 0:16:50.640 --> 0:16:52.920 you I'll give you a story. It was about nine 0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:55.440 or ten o'clock at night at my in low's house, 0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:58.040 and uh they have an upstairs where the bedrooms are 0:16:58.600 --> 0:17:03.800 and the bedrooms and uh so I had just gotten 0:17:03.880 --> 0:17:06.280 Grand Theft Auto two. It was about ten years ago 0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:09.240 whenever it was, and I was playing it, and I 0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:10.680 was showing my wife the game, and she's like, I'm 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:15.320 going to bed meet me upstairs. Okay. Nine hours later 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:18.080 the sun came up. I didn't notice it. My in 0:17:18.240 --> 0:17:20.120 laws came down to make breakfast and I was sitting 0:17:20.119 --> 0:17:22.760 there is zoned into that game. I get like that. 0:17:22.840 --> 0:17:25.359 I get obsessive to to solve games, beat games, so 0:17:25.480 --> 0:17:27.680 I don't play the One of your non talents is 0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:31.520 keeping track of time management. Time management is not one 0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:33.399 of my I'll lose myself. So when people like, oh, 0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:36.440 you're playing like World of Warcraft or or you know anything, 0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:37.880 you just getting lost from the game and you don't 0:17:37.880 --> 0:17:39.919 realize what time it is is due? Okay, So IRAQ 0:17:41.640 --> 0:17:46.080 Ultimate h was it? Unreal Tournament? Unreal Tournament is is 0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:49.480 sort of similar to Fortnite, and it's just you have 0:17:49.600 --> 0:17:52.080 different boards. So the board could be in space or 0:17:52.119 --> 0:17:54.800 in a western town or wherever, and we would get 0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:56.960 on this and it's you'd play over a network. So 0:17:57.040 --> 0:17:58.440 he would go on his computer. I'll go on mind 0:17:58.480 --> 0:18:00.879 with ten feet apart. We would fight each other, but 0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:06.680 it was you three of us. M yeah, four of 0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:09.879 us in the same comedy studios. We would finished writing comedy. 0:18:10.119 --> 0:18:12.600 We were done at seven o'clock. It was eleven thirty, 0:18:12.680 --> 0:18:14.600 like I had. I had to get here at five 0:18:14.640 --> 0:18:18.720 the next that's the problem. We got lost in it. Yeah. 0:18:18.840 --> 0:18:21.640 So but my friend Iraq, who's been on this podcast, 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:25.479 he does the Exeric Nego podcast.

So I really wanted with a 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:45.520 little pop figurines that was a collector's item and I 0:18:45.600 --> 0:18:46.960 got it from my daughter. He got it for me. 0:18:47.560 --> 0:18:49.959 So he says, oh, you come over Saturday pick it up. 0:18:49.960 --> 0:18:51.480 I said, what time is good for you?

So I go over his house 0:19:18.880 --> 0:19:21.400 and the cars in the driveway, no lights running the house, 0:19:22.000 --> 0:19:25.760 and I knock on the door and his little bulldog mastiff, 0:19:25.840 --> 0:19:28.640 one of those whatever, comes to the door and slamming 0:19:28.680 --> 0:19:33.320 into the glass door.
