That's what I want. I've got a friend who does movie nights at his place, and we're talking about like October scary movies, stuff to do and like have a bunch of people over and watch. And I found out he had never seen Gremlin's Too. And his significant otter does not like scary movies at all. So he was like pulling the plays like wait, okay, so Grimlin's Too, is it like too scary? And I was like, I promise you, Gremlins Too is not scary. There's nothing scary, Like, well, yeah, but it's like horror adjacent, right, It's like not even really now, like not even remotely scary. Okay, if you have never seen those movies, it does have the names similar to like what it said the Ghoulies, the Gies, Yeah, Scar of me as a kid and things like that, and yeah, but Gremlins is just a straight up comedy, especially especially two. It is just mad cap and say, yeah, I'll never get I love the DVD commentary for Gridman's Too, And the director just starts off at like the most unnecessary of sequels and it's like, you made it, dude.

Hey, I saw a TikTok this morning with Sylvester Stallone and his daughter and I was relieved that it was his daughter and not a young wife. Yeah. It's always nice, always good when he's not not dating that. So when that young he looked sli still looked great. Had the moves Dexables four. I never liked any of the Expendables movies, but I always want to hope the next one's gonna be good. I mean, they're never as good as I want either, Like the concept is like the most of my alley. Yes, they're not that great. How old do you think he is? Slone's exactly right? Who you dan me? Yes? His Wikipedia says he was born in Hill's Kitchen, New York, which is like just a vague area of the city and not really defined by anything. I find that devils from, so I know exactly where it is yeah, very good. That's awesome. Okay, let's get into the voicemails. Uh, my friends, Jeff Grubb, you drew the first voicemail, have at it. Yes, I would like to go with scientific style. Please, this is gonna take a while. Okay, no, sorry, oops, hold on, it's science Hey duns, longtime caller, short time listener. Could we get a ranking of fast food? I don't care if you do scientific style or your lift style, but I feel like it must be done. Thank you. The thing is, we would need like a visual aid. There's so many we would need to have, like like one of those tear maker things where here we'll do a tear maker of this. It's always it's something we've always talked about doing, and that would be a good one to start with. So let's just let's commit to doing that for a upf here at some point, there's been a lot of games, so like doing all the really fun stuff, like we're having a lot of time for We're gonna make more time for this kind of stuff, so we'll definitely do it. So let's do Okay, everyone just name like your your favorite and your least favorite or something like that. Aco Bell and at least favorite burger King of the big ones. Okay, okay, Taco Bell for sure, and I'm put down screen room fucking like Burger King. All right, look at us, we're the same guy. Yeah, oh my god, I didn't even like think about it that way. Yeah, I got that. I got some stuff to do. I think my favorite probably is Arby's because they have the best, like the broadest menu and they and it's all good. And then I think my least favorite is uh, it actually probably is McDonald's, even though I still like it. It's yeah, I think my least favorite McDonald It'll take Burger King over McDonald's. Yeah, thats wrong. Even I like the Wopper because because I think about what for both of them, I think about burgers, and I like the whopper Junior way better than work at a burger king is why, Well, we don't have to get into my biases. We don't have to blows like employee stock options. Okay. All I got from burger Working at a Burger King was fights a burger king, you getting fights with their manager who's really weird. Options and whoppers, options and wophs. I feel like I haven't seen a burger King in real life in a while, either you're you you avoid the bad parts of town. Well, of course that's oh you know what, maybe that is what's on the other side of those railroad. That's what's on the other side of the tracks. Yeah, all right, this is sort of like a couple of buildings past the burnt down building and then you find the Burger King. There's like an elden ringed fog over there, and I kind of just can't see what Yeah exactly, Okay, that tracks, that track is sub they're saying it's Chile's cast casual, that's fast casual, Panara, that's Chipotle. Oh, you're smirching the good name of Pantera bread by saying that bad bread. That would rule, right, I don't know why they're not working on that partnership. That's bullshit. Dude. Don't fucking put Chipole in the same category, in the same category. I agree, I disagree, takes longer bad. Did you have like a bad experience with Chipotle? I don't get like in their in their rice like fucking weirder thing. Okay, no, never mind, that's completely fair. Yeah, and it's not good, Like I'm sorry, it's just not great me tacco bell over that any any day of the week. I don't care thing. It's a different pro it's a different thing. But like it's I just I don't like what it's trying to be. I don't like who's it's not for me? Sorry, well, especially with a cilantro, because that's gonna that's just gonna taste like soap. So I get it's yeah, Basil, Cilantro and Celery is my tribunal of hatred. I just I can't do it, but I would say I'm gonna say bird King is my least favorite, despite always having a craving for the long chicken sandwich. Sure, checking the long way? Yeah, yeah, chick in the long way? Why we that's that's triggering some sort of weird memory from like a wrestling thing. No, we talk in the long way. Yes, it's it's it's the signs little at the paper block. Wait, how did you oh? Because somebody was referencing that at a WS Goldberg eats corn the long way. Yes, that was this was bro It said it said brod Or eats corn the long way or something. Okay because the thing, yes, okay, anyway, Sorry, what do you get from Panera, except I don't let Panara's so bland to me. Oh I don't go there. Really, you'll just defended to the desk. I defend it against any day of the week. So it's like, yeah, this isn't like I don't know, I don't know, like a soup, I don't know, like ade up bread bowl is fine. Yeah, like like question, it's fine. I just like I never craved. I never want it. But when like when I watched like when Panara, I'm like, yeah, I guess I have a fucking bread bull, let's go. I was like a ham and gee, and I was trying to eat healthy for a couple of months. It was like, okay, Panara had like consistent salads that were pretty good. Like there's a strawberry summer salad that's not bad at all. Right, if it was a place like next to my place of work, I would go there for lunch, no doubt. Yeah I can get a salad or something. Oh, you know the worst fast food place and this is just literally fast food. A proper foods I don't know what that talk forever was that San Francisco. Yeah, those proper foods were like little stores near big office buildings. It's right by two thirty five. Yeah, okay, that's what I'm remembering for okay. Yeah, and I mostly hated it because I'd have to settle for it. That's right there. It's like you've got thirty minutes between like we're doing a Game of the Year thing and there's something quick downtime between segments something, and they mic rave the scene which too long that it's burning as you're eating it. Yeah. How do you guys feel about White Castle? Never had it? Very good? It's very good. Lot. So this is the guiltiest of my pleasures. I think, uh is amazing. It's great. I probably haven't had it in like close to seven to ten years, but like, my god, I I've done some damage there for sure. They're always like tough to find and you'd have to travel a great deal. But there's I mean, I could easily eat eat of those burgers like without without trying. The chicken rings are good taken. Put the chicken ring on the burger, the tiny sliders and it it's perfectly It's great. That's by design. You gotta imagine last question about fast food and then I'll let you guys. Moves on what it actually is the best chicken sandwich at fast food? Do you guys? Pop Eyes? It's not even close. And I tried all of them during this last couple of years, the heyday of like everyone's getting their chicken sandwich. Yes, I've tried. I've tried them all. A lot of them are very good. Some of them are kind of mediocre. I didn't have any that were terrible. But Popeye spicy chicken sandwich is I really think it might be the best fast food item of all time. Yeah, I'm right there with you. If we're talking best fast food item of all time. Number two is the shitty jack in the box two for a dollar tacos. Yeah that that Yes, the ones that are mostly like transparent oil papers, Yeah, totally. I like that. A lot chicken casity. Taco Bell that's also very good. That's good, good man. I gotta say, like my taco bell consumption has gone way up. If we could somehow chart this on a graph, some sort of timeline, it was at zero percent for like a lot of years right and there for and now it's like it's twice a month infinite more taco Bell than you were a couple of years ago, an infinite percentage more amount of Taco Bell is in your body now than it was a couple of years ago. Yeah, really charting me, isn't he? No, let's let's just back in discernible. Really, I put a hat on and you can't tell us apart we're just talking. Just then I looked away from the screen. Yeah, okay, yep, that's me. I'm you now, that's fine. I'm wrestling references before I am on podcasts. Jeez. So this is this is just basically freaky Friday right now, and that one of those situations. Now I'm not having it like that often, but maybe like a once a month situation, which is obviously infinitely more. I love it. I love have the chili cheese burrito at your Taco Bell because I'm back. No, they're great. Just the sound of it makes me ill. I don't think burrito from Taco Bell sounds bad to you, and I don't want that. Man, what the fuck are you not you? I guess I don't know, like I don't want that. I think chili is it's not for me. I want like my staples. I want my like cheesey Gordia crunches. I want my Uh. I feel like I asked for a double decker and they gave me something. They have all those like they have the technology. Yeah, they've got all the pieces to that puzzle. Yeah uh yeah. And then I haven't had one of those cases these in a while. Maybe I'll try that next time. Mexican pizza Mexican hard ass in the chat says chili cheese burrito looks like a loaded diaper, but it is delicious, and that is very accurate. Yeah, I'm just not getting chili there. I just don't want to do that. Sure, if it's food chili, you would get it's delicious. Yeah. I just realized the store. I saw the grocery store. They canned windy. Someone said this recently. I believe that. I believe that. In the chat just reminded me, holy shit, says has Dan gone to Taco Bell defy with the pneumatic delivery system. The one Taco Bell to FI I think is here I could drive to. It shoots the Taco bell through tubes like a bank. Send the clone me, oh my god, quick, Look do you want to get on the phone during UPF and go there and like get on Discord and a line of amazing view. I would like that. Let me feel like an old phone that you could connect to your phone over like Wi Fi and then you could discord on that one and put it in the pneumatic tube and like we can see it like goe, yeah, I did that once in airport security. I periscope to going through security, like through the X ray thing. It's probably illegal, right, Okay, let me see how far it is. If not, this dream, I will absolutely do that. Wants two bells so bad. Yeah, that's so they put it through a pneumatic tube, so it's better. Yeah, but that they can't put everything through a tube. They could try, I don't know how, like a drink through it. You try to put like a can like well, I guess you look at it like it's it's a two story thing. It comes down through tubes, but it's just down only. It's exit only. Just not not a lot of newmatics happening. It's like a whole bell. Take me a whole bell. This new taco bell's got like you know, a teleporter. It's pretty sick. Welcome to the bell hole. Okay, one of these days I should definitely go. I'll discord in. Okay. How many taco bells in the world do you think have a shoot bell in them? Like or like in a drawer like could it doesn't have to be visible to the customers. Yes, yes, yes, Oh sho dance? Okay, can you do that? It's is it? Is it like Sebway where it's like a franchise, like you can buy a taco bell and do whatever with it. You know, there's there's guide, there's like a style guide. Yeah, you operate within a store guy basically. Yeah. I also think the bell noise that taco bell makes is closer to a gong than it is an actual bell. My Xbox series wait, no, what's the Xbox one? X is the Taco Bell one and every time we turn it on it makes the gong sound. It's pretty good. It's the gong di Did you win that for shoot? They gave it to me, okay, okay, because I knew a couple of people who won one for shoot and it was like, all right, that's pretty cool. My last gen Xbox is Taco Bell and my current gin is Bojangles, So something's going right here. I wonder what the cylinder Clean Life Dan the Champion Jano choa this yeah, yeah, okay, jan save us. Like I hate those cinnamon twists, but I love cinnama. Oh. I used to eat those two like a like a full blown pasta. It's insane. Lights cake that was pretty good, just fried pasta. It's really Yeah, that's what they're like more truro adjacent. Now they have turo seasoning on him right, Yeah, I have a lot of line. They're dry it like styrofoam. Uh. I listened to these earlier this morning, plus agreeing with Mike Manati. Yeah, hey, bombers Danny from Mostard. It happened. It finally happens. Was listening to the Voicemil down Truck, I found myself agreeing with minkes Manati. It scared me. It scared me, But I agree baseball is the best sport. So the question is, when was the last time you found yourself agreeing with Manati? And did it scary to Manati has a lot of good opinions. I will actually say that he he. I find that his taste in games often aligns with mine, oftentimes also wildly like he's into the like Kingdom Herds JRPG fear, which is not my thing. But he knows his ship and he likes some good games. I'll give him that. Yeah, it is frightening to agree with him. Still he's done. I don't want him to hear this. He's no, No, he's not, he's not. OK. I was watching the excellent video the Jam published what was it yesterday early this morning, early this morning or this morning from Nintendo Live of packs and go check it out. It's on the site and on YouTube. And it wasn't like me agreeing with Menani, but it was more like I genuinely felt for him in one moment where like he was talking about a cue reminding him of Disney World and Tam and the camera pants to Tam and Tam just like grow up and then just freaking uh, just turtling a little bit. Ye, feeling bad. Earlier that day, Mike was like, if Tam ever told me to grow up, I would just be devastated. And I'm like I was waiting from a moment. I'm like, just Susy said that, and te saw Tam would give him a look like Tam tell him to grow up, and He's like it was lightning strike. Dude punished Tolkoto right there, like just straight up he like the look on his face where he just like got caught peeing on the floor in the kitchen. I felt so bad for him. Oh, I really wanted to just leap into my screen and give that guy a hug. But but keep in mind, back less than a minute later, the same person that you felt bad for starts singing and chanting Goombud Dumper goombud. Like. Look. It was funny because I was also like, what would I have done standing next to him in that situation, and like I kind of just kind of just like walking would be Like I probably just like moon walk out of there a little bit, probably just like this is myself, you know, like Homer into the bush kind of thing. I think I've had an elongated conversation with Mike Manati without him mentioning EPCOT in my entire life. Yeah, I think I understood. I think I just understand him a lot more now after this last couple of weeks. You know, does Manati go to Disney conversationally more or less often than I go into wrestling. It's about the same. Yeah, I was no, I was gonna say, you're worse with wrestling. Oh really, Okay, what was like life is wrestling like Disney is not like life. I'm just saying, like, that's how more noticeable when Dan because Dan has no shame about it, and Mike usually was like, I'm sorry, this reminds me of that cut more forgiving. I feel like sometimes we have to explain something situationally to Dan via wrestling terms. That happens with Mike, right, And it's because you say all the dumb shit all the time in your vernacular. That here's what makes it worse though, as a wrestling person, is because there's the whole language that when you're just immersed in so much, you use and like like last night, I was at a thing with a bunch of people and I was like, oh, yeah, yeah, I really put over this thing, or they really put over this thing. And you're saying that wrestle talk okay, shit, Disney doesn't have that as much, right. I guess he speaks more of the people's language, is what we're trying to say, Like we universally understand in a way that people need to be in on your goofy inside joke. It's like Disney edgen right, Like they have their own terms it's just well, not that part of like the Disney adult. Now wait he did that Lord of the Rings thing. Yes, Peter Jackson or whatever. Yeah, there is photographic evidence. I mean, like the only thing he could say is Disney real. But everyone knows what Disney real means, Like you just know what. I don't know what Disney real literally, you're a Disney adult. No. No, someone said it to me while I was there, like a skipper or some shit. Uh, and we were saying, like I think I think my kid asked them like, oh, what is that? Is that real? And the guy was like, it's Disney reel. So like me, like Santa Claus reel, It's like, oh, he's Disney real. Is that Like the context, yes, that's exactly it. Oh it was like so to work, Yeah, yeah, exactly. It happened, right, Okay. It's easy to understand the context because it's easy to sniff at what that means. Everyone's like, oh, you mean it's a shoot work, It's called the work shoot. But anyway, yeah, get But yeah, for the most part, like I can understand Anati, I don't think I really Yeah, I think I find myself agreeing with him every now and then aside for obviously the insane claim about baseball. But baseball, nobody's pretty okay right now? I think it's yeah, sports it's a sports balls number one, I'd say baseball is behind it, and then a bunch of spots and then like I got basketball, like you know, a bunch of spots that basketball, no bunch of shots like like I'm saying like one, two and then three. You know, it's like, all right, ok I get it. You make fun of things you don't understand. That's fine. What do you What was your number one? I'd say American football, probably American football. That tracks okay, all right, very good. Moving along, whether or not we disagree or agree with Mike Manatti, we'll go to Dan Ryker. Mhm do uh fancy gaming food? Hello, jumpers, this is Yoshi from Modesto. Right now, I'm slicing some extra sharp white shit white tredder wow white cheese so that I can put a half of garlic stuffed olive on top like a crack a cracker. My question is what is your fancy gaming food? And if you don't have one, what would it be guess of a good week? Uh, it would be I don't have one. It would be that Beef Wellington that what's his name makes Gordon Ramsey. Oh yeah, yeah, I've never had it. I've never had it, but I would looked at it and if I can get it from a station. Of course, we had that conversation. I'll make you, okay, yeah, hey, let's do it Beef Welly for Game of the Year. That could be like a family dinner, like what I would love to help make that. That would be a fun thing I would do that. I would have that and probably play like some game that I associate with the holidays, like Donkey Kong Country or something that because I like that. Yeah, sweet yeah, chestnuts roasting on open fire, all that stuff. Hm. I don't really have an answer for this though. It's tough to like associate. I don't like to eat what I'm gaming. Like that's the Hi yeah, where you have the little chopsticks on your fingers you can grab like chips and stuff. They have to recall those because they were causing like, uh injuries. I got oh yeah, they yeah, they cost like hand injuries. I think you've got some. I got some unbranded ones from China in my kitchen right this second, wait for real, they recalled them. I don't know if they recalled them. I think there was like some some buzz on the internet that they were objective to a Yeah, it is a weird motion. You must engage. You're not like other than like making like a cut it symbol or trying to say you're not that way. Yeah, perhaps over time you developed the strength, but in the short term injury prone. I'd imagine. Yes, I'm more of a like I'll have like a nice beverage wall gaming, you know, I'm yeah, game sounds nice, respectable, little martoony whatever. You need to get the job done. Sure, yeah, all right, call fancy drinks. Yeah, fancy drinks. That's that's the way to do it. Yes, I beer is like maybe the end of the night kind of thing, or maybe I don't know, if I had like been active that day, I'll drink some beer while I'm gaming. But yes, other than that, I like to have a mixed drink when I'm playing games. That's much better games down there, Right, that's the room where you play on your game, right, you get stuff back of the bar. Hell yes, yes, yes, kind of started building it out, and yes, that's exactly what's happening now? So your kids are down there a lot too, So it's not like it's just your like domain and like it's a it's it's really a space they think of like they think it's my space, but then they use it all the time, which is how I want it. Like, so yeah, it's but like this is my this is my office right here, but then right over there's the TV and the recliner and stuff, and then over there's kind of a movie room that we do movies in. But yeah, that's that's for everybody. But this is where I play games. So the other TV's upstairs where people are watching stuff up there. Just wondering like what the long term effect on your kids would be if like you were just sort of always emerging from this cave. Ca Yeah, there's no, it's not no boundary there. They just yes, I mean ADDI most of the time I'm doing a show, ADDIE's over there playing games right over there. So yep, excellent, excellent, All right, thank you for the call caller. I will choose next, and I will choose scene or aware of Hey, y'all, it's a villain Mack.

I don't know if I saw that. I liked I like, really liked John Lagazamo back then because he did a one man show on HBO. I love that one. So yeah, and he's done a couple and then playing an old lady. He would do like an old lady voice. Yeah. Maybe there was one that was a lot about his dad and it was like yes, but so it's like that I was in the past, like of course, and I like most I mostly liked that movie. I like The Pest. It's the World's Most Dangerous game. It's based on that. Yeah, that rich guy. It's an adaptation. Yeah, you're right, yes, yeah, I think they played it. They played it on like FX once and I recorded it and then we didn't have cable for a good three four months. So I would just watch The Pest every other day. Yeah. I used to wake my day up, my dad up after night of drinking with I would take every screen I had. Sometimes it would be like a I don't know if I like we U game pad or like I would literally have like six or seven screens and all max volume, all playing the Pest first song at different like start times, like I started on one fifteen second letter starting the other, and it was just the worst sound humans have ever Voodoo mambo, Yes, you should. Everyone should listen to Vodoomamba from The Pest. It's you gotta watch the video too, because there's a lot going on there. Yeah, there's you don't want to miss some of those gags. I guess we'll call them. It's the way it's it's shot and done. It's like that would be a credit sequence at the end of a movie. Not how you open a movie. No, it's how you establish who the pest is. Like this is an obnoxious man. Like even when he wakes up in the morning, he's taking a shower, he's already in this mode. You know. It's like I think it's like I've heard people say that, like they've been shocked. Like if I stay over at someone's place or whatever and I wake up and I immediately like this, Like that's how I'm just instantly like I am all the time that other people are like, hey, do you need any kind of like ramp up period or like I did, because like it sounds like most people I have to kind of like shack the cobwebs off and have a practice and stuff, and like I just I don't really have different modes, you know off just yeah, yeah, not everyone tastes themselves first thing in the morning, you know, while it's been a while. Wait, wait when you were tasting yourself to get yourself awake? Was that was that because there was a ramp up period back then? Or like what was there was just like get out of bed period where it's like, you know, stop myself from going back to the secondt of the bed. I'm not dad because I have my call fee. That was never a thing. The second of my feet hit the floor, I'm good to go. So okay, that is truly remarkable. Like I can't even wrap my head around behaving like that. Bunking can back me up on that where it's like she likes to get up and have a routine and get believe like I'm I think I'm a lot right away. So maybe, yeah, I think you're just I think you're just like living fast man. I think you're just like somehow, I don't know. It takes me a good forty five minutes to finally hit peek. Yeah. Yeah, I like nap. Sometimes I'll get tired and like even like ten or fifteen is good. Okay, this this is I love my partner to death, but she hates naps. Yeah, she thinks they're a waste of time when you take a nap. Yes, because it's like, yeah, now I can't do anything because you're staunchly anti nap and that's weird. Nope. Wait, so when other people take it after you get frustrated, No, I don't care, like it frees up, like but I can't maybe because I can't do it. Like I I think I napped. I think I napped once last year and it was like by accident, like you know, like that's a very funny idea that that one fucking time I took a nap. I will go I will go with three thirty PM. And I was so fucking pissed. Oh God, like, I will do nap more than an hour, Jeff, We shouldn't. An hour's way too much, Like I see Chad here saying waking up from a nap is feeling so gross and unfathomable. No, No, that's the thing you're doing too long, Like, yeah, twenty minutes, thirty minutes? Is that a nap? Is that you'll get a real recharge from that? Yes, rub you know, introduce me to the coffee nap and I love ye. We're big fans of that around here where it's uh, you get that all the good effects of the caffeine just hitting your dopamine system and recharging you and then you just you don't even fall asleepy, just get up and go. And it's like that's the way to do it, the nappocano Yep, yeah, yeah, it's really I haven't needed when. I really haven't napped much at all since I moved. I was trying to think of why, and it's like, I think I've been trying to make a real effort to like have a normal sleep cycle since I moved, And that's probably why I'm probably like getting a good amount of sleep at like insistent times and nobody doesn't need it. I guess nap, but you know was right there. Okay, well next time, next time? Yeah, all right, very good friends. Chat went next chat chose grape nuts. What are grape nuts? Break? He's not quite a nut?

Is it weird that, like grape nuts dot Com you can just like buy a box of grape nuts and even has like the weird like fabricated review stars next to it as well, like like that's weird, that's weird grape nuts.

I think you're you're not missing now. I think you're doing I think you're doing just fine. I'm scrolling down all these different ideas here, and it's like, oh, grape nuts, more crunchy peanut butter bars, you can make like recipes, and then it's grape nuts hot. Thereso okay, okay, enjoy hot, Enjoy grape nuts hot. Spicy thereizo, sausage, zesti, lime, and ripe avocado are added to a bowl of warm grape nuts cereal for a savory and unique meal or snack. Anytime that sounds terrible, okay, I think good, except for the grape nuts. I bet the rest of it sounds awesome. Grape guts are the bad part, you know this grape nuts apple crisp sounds okay from what you guys have told me. I have My wife made some apple chris because we went apple picking. Shout up to being white family man, right right, that fact our culture we went. We we're gonna settle for any of that shitty apple. We're gonna do the real top deal. Can I tell you the apple picking I hadn't gone in many, many years, and like it was just I don't know what What is it about walking through an apple orchard that like creeps me out in a way that I'm on, I don't know, is it like that? I think they're a lots can listen up. This will be educational. Listen to education. Sit there and listen. Learn something for one, experience something for once, will you please? Jesus? Uh? Yeah, I don't know, Like all the weird ones that fall to the ground, and I'm just like, God, I don't know, right, Like, isn't it I don't know? Okay, wait, so it's you're weirded out walking through the apple orchard. I guess because there's apples on the ground. No, because it also like you take one off right and you look at it and you're like, oh, there's like so much fucking pesticide bullshit all over this too. Right, it's a little white cloudy. Huh. Every orchard it would have that on it. Yeah. I thought it was like big corporate factory stuff is where they do that stuff. I thought, like everyone every yeah, those outside sides, how do you do it? I mean you could, you could go with the ones that claim to be organic or not or whatever, but like wash all your it's actually like the idea of like an organic apple. At these days, all apples have been genetically modified and all this stuff. But yeah, they're all this and they're all just like the same. There are just clones basically, Yeah, yeah, like all apples, all tasty apples are yeah, because the ones that are clones don't taste Yeah, they don't taste good. Why they call them because they taste good. Yep, I'm just imagining Dan it like your vision of like an apple factory where like they're trees are inside some sort of you know, there's always like cartoon just like it, or like like an eighties movie like the Evil Corporation and it's just a bunch of guys and sewage fingre like, yeah, it's put the pesticides on the apples, like I figure, like on a farm, like on the vine or whatever like that, they're fine, you know, and like saying they're finally pesticides and they got sprays over them so bugs don't get them. My whole family was farmers. I should ask some of them. Yeah, you understand though, Right, that's not hard so far. Why start now? I don't Actually my dad probably knows less about food than I do, and he worked at the grocery store like his whole life. Okay, I don't want too deep into that anyway. Uh, anybody with the apple Chris fucking owns. Soon I get down here, I'm gonna upstairs and getting some some pics of that man, if you could susly. Yeah, it look like it's falling apart because as it is, but it's still delicious banana jan a thing or two. Yeah. Wait, so are bananas safe because there's like the armor over it? So are bananas without pesticides? I'm sure they're on the on the skin, but like you're not eating the skin. I'm just eating the So you're safe there. I would assume probably, but I don't know. Yeah, I assume it's got some of it's got a seep in. I'm sure, but oh yeah, exactly, that's why. Yeah, but I mean I don't know. Here, here's the thing. It hasn't hurt me so far. I think we're probably fine. Yeah. I'm good off by apples too, but like what am most of them gonna do? Not eat apples? No? I love apples. No apples. I'm not gonna drink a cup of pesticides. But if you like poured one on my burger, I wouldn't throw it away. Poured a cup of it beside on your burger. Yeah, like like use paper towels and like dab it a bit. And you realize, you realize, like sometimes you don't have to say anything right, Like you realize like sometimes you don't have to like voluntarily just like save the things. I think it's my whole job is a dabbit a little bit. Listen, dude, the fact that like, oh man, the amount of pesticide that's getting on an apple compared to like a couple of it onto your burger pizza, and you know when they get a really oily piece of he'd send somebody's like trying to like the kind of dabbed the oil off. I mean, it works, it would take off. You just dab some of this has side off my burger. Uh oh, talk about a jump scare? Hold on, did you just see that Dana brook Out released? Is that the jump scare? Oh? What? Yeah? Oh I got I thought Dana White and then I thought that was funny. Oh no, no, it's fine. I thought it was an emergency thing on Slack. Don't worry, gentlemen. No, I saw that, and then I looked at the thing and I was like, whoa, okay, yeah, but my watch just popped off with something from Slack. I don't know what it's non emergency is positive, alright, alright, sorry, I just wanted pop. That's gonna work forever. It's always gonna get us. Oh that's so funny. I wasn't even here, and that's funny. Oh boy? Who all right? Uh? I literally said I'm not gonna drink a cup of pesticide, but in context, I won't to you know, I'll dab it. No, don't dabble. What do you mean dab dabb it? He's gonna be like like a pizza. Yeah, yep? How did How did they get on your burger? How did this somebody? If some like prankster ran up and just poured it on it? You know, like sometimes like politicians, will I get hit by an egg? Like like that? Okay? But okay, are you if somebody throws paint on the mona Lisa, you still at the restaurant and like you could be like, hey, sir, a prankster just came and the side of my burger. Well a restaurant. If I'm at the restaurant and they got a kitchen right there, I might be like, hey, I'm sorry, somebody just poured a bunch fest side of my Can I get a different one from the kitchen? Like? But if I'm at home and I like door dash it or something, I'm like, I'm not gonna go through the whole rigama role. Just dab it, sure, Carlos it's all good. You're just making a watch pop off. We're all good. Don't worry about dude. It's just I love the way you try to explain you're thinking. You're like, you know, the way it policic. She gets that type of like just a prankster. You know. I could see at some point in dance life, like the timeline of dance life being a target of like an egg prankster like that. But at some point Dip is gonna do this. You does not want to start a war with me with this type of ship I will make his life does come in? He does not want to do this. What's your first like response, Dan, Like he hits you with an egg at a restaurant, Well, you're not not the pesticide thing, but he hits you with an egg. What do you do? Dip does yeah it, Dip does yeah. Like he's like eleven or twelve. He's eleven or twelve at this point, I'm gonna restaurant. He throws an egg at me. He got to where you are. Oh, in the moment, I'm not doing anything, but I'm gonna start. Yeah, That's what I'm saying. What is the response, Like? What is the first move a decades long campaign of making things very difficult for him. That's terrifying Dad. But I like it, not in a way that's gonna harm him or put him in danger or anything, but just he's not ever gonna know what's coming next in general, perfect it's such a weird fantasy to plot out. I don't get it. Look, that's why I'm saying he doesn't want to open this door. I'm telling you've got basically you know, look, look look at all this shit I've done to my dad over the years and filmed it and stuff. You haven't like, I will wage a war and I will win it. Bothers me, how like quick to war you are like it bothers me like like playing even just you know, but even just like talking it out and like going through the thought experiment of it all. I don't appreciate your tone with that. You ever, this is would exhaust me. Like I like the idea of like waging a psychological war on anyone, I'd be like I have to be like I've come with all the ideas and the execute it and like, yeah, that'd be fun for like a little bit of revenge. But after that I'm not gonna have the like stamina for it. I don't know dance like ye need to go. This is like in this storyline, Dan has foregone retirement and instead decided to like just wage war on. I think the reason why he's gonna live to one hundred because he's got this purpose. Here's an example, keep driving him. I had a friend who got married, and we had a running joke in college of like, this guy that we knew in the dorms got married. He had a very silly wedding photo where he was like harnessed up in a tree leaning over kissing his wife because he did a job where he prepared and it was just a very weird wedding photo. They're in wedding stuff, yeah and everything. So for my friend Ben's wedding, I got him a canvas print of that image, but I photo shopped in or a bomb photo shopped in him and his wife he was getting married to. And it was a funny prank to give to him at the reception. And every once in a while I will text him and I'll be like, hey, I need to see photo evidence of the current status of this thing. And like he got rid of it once, or there was flood damage once and I got damage. And every time he can't provide a current photo of this canvas print, I sent him a larger one and I told him this will continue until the day I die. So you need to make sure this holds physical space in your house forever, or this thing will be bigger than your fucking house. That's cool, that type of things. So it's just very annoying, but cursing, not harm annoying. It encouraged significant costs at a point because like, oh yeah, I think they believe you. I believe you when you say you would get one that's bigger, literally bigger than his house. It costs like seven thousand dollars to print exactly. Look, I picked my battles and I stick to them. Okays, yeah, that's impressive. I respect that you. Thank you. I'll never wrong you, Dan Dan. That's what I'm really saying. Yes, it's funny in a lot of ways. This episode. We've we've I've had more overlapp in the Jeff Dan than diagram than ever before. Guys are almost the same person. Now you know we're criss crossing. Uh, we're crossing paths for sure, because that was my favorite thing to do in all my friends were getting married, was like take their like wedding uh you know, announcement photo or whatever it is, and turn it into like a herpes medicine commercial. Yeah, that's good. It's like the move. It was like the go to move. So I don't know, like it, don't like it. That is what those pictures herpies commercials look like. They absolutely do. I tell you, like all it's a simple edit. But like when you do, you're just like, oh my god. And then maybe you bring him to like the wedding or something, I don't know him just leave you put him in the bathroom or something. I don't know. You figure it out. There was a moment that Tim Terry learned not to try to like wage war with me because I made last time. I was visiting not last time, but I visited the Game in Former once and I got a device that just emits a high pitch chirp at random intervals, and I hit it above Jeff marky Ivava's desk and like in the like I had to get up on ship and put it up there, and I, you know, flew back to San Francisco and I was having like Hansen and Tim and stuff update me and he's like, oh yeah, he is freaking out, like trying to figure out where this fucking beeping is coming from. And then when he got it, he had Tim next time I visited Minneapolis slip it into my luggage and so it would bug me when I flew back to San Francisco and I text. I still have screenshots of the text conversation. I was at the airport and I was texting Tim like, Tim, do you do you know anything about like a beeping thing? Or do somebody put that thing? And because like I'm in a room right now, and TSA is like Tim was like, oh my god, damn, I'm so sorry, Oh my god. And I let him stew. I let him stew for a while, and then I disappeared for a while, so he thought I just got thrown in jail or something, and then I told him it was me. And he hasn't really tried to man, Hey, how's Jeff Marcia Faba not killed you yet? That's what I'm wondering. Well, that was a learning process for me because I kind of thought, I kind of thought most of my life that all my Mary prankster stuff was being accepted. Was like, oh, he's a stinker, And I kind of thought that was Marky Pop's attitude for me a lot of time, and then I found out later he actually just hated it all the time. So now it's like like with Mitch and stuff. You know, I started doing the Mitch thing when I first met him. I did all these little things. I check, I make sure I'm like, hey, wait, you don't actually like hate me for this, right, let lessons learned less wrong time it took mark I Papa trying to drive me off a bridge exactly, like okay, weird, strange. It would be fun to see like Mike and Dan go at it like prank for prank and like make that. Uh Mike would get frustrated eventually, Like yes, it'd be like kind of like annoyed by it. You could tell, let's every Wednesday capable. Yeah exactly, He's definitely capable of blowing a fuse where I don't care. I think Dan is immune to it. What was the thing recently where Mitch was like, this isn't even funny, this is like I was doing something. It was yeah four Source Adventures, Yes, yeah, it was yeah, He's like, did you have friends growing up? He meant that he meant, yeah I did. And I'm just like, this is all what I everything I ever imagined it would be. Wow, what a wonderful thing we've done. Oh boy, all right, Jeff, grab your up. Uh yeah, let's go with hat box. Please. This message is for jan This is Alice and Los Angeles. On the bottomcast. You are insisting that a box had to be square shaped, and I have two words for you. Hat box, that's right, a hat box. Like if you bought your lady friend a nice hat in a hat box, then you would know that hat boxes typically are cylindrical, and so a box can be cylindrical. And how are you gonna go to Kentucky Derby with your lady friend without her having a nice fascinator or a nice hat? Check the check. The only hats that around anymore a baseball hats, and they just sit on a shelf by themselves. So there's not box were around. Like during the depression, you say, for your dame, for your best gal, look like you have to be talked about lady from here. Let me just prove his whole point. When was the last time any of you saw a hat box or were confronted by one, uh, confronted time one on in a dark alley. There's the last time you were when it was the last time you saw my mom's closet, like in the eighties or nineties. Okay, I'm friends with theater people, so that it's it's hard. Did you see one? Did you see? It wasn't a hat box? It was like a hat like uh, you know, the the not the sleeves, but for like nice jackets, you'll put them in like the coat hanger, sleeve apparatus. I don't know what the fuck I'm trying to say. I'm visualizing what you're talking. It's more more bag than box. M a garment a garment bag for a hat. Also, this person who's calling up, did we not like immediately pivot into this very specific exact conversation, yes, which is like, which is like, I'm just imagining the scenario with this person, like hit pause, Yeah, but Andy, Okay, that's what I've definitely done that before. I just want to work that out. Okay, very good, Yeah, totally all right. I guess like a Domino's pizza box is not quite a square or a rectangle because it's like folded like well, like those corners that come off like don't we Like, I guess it's that that's just them saving cardboard, right, Like, I don't know it's more square than octagon. Yeah, yeah, it is octagonal though, Yeah, but I still look at it like if you're saying letter of the law. Yes, but from a distance looking at it, you're it would read as a scutop sign stop sign, nah, stop signs guns even science. So yeah, I don't know. To me, there's no way it's a box square. There's no way to know, is how. We'll have to leave for sure, that's clear, Jen. In your tour of white culture. After you've gotten apple picking, you must then attend the Kentucky Derby. Oh no, I don't know if I'm gonna feel safe at either of these things. No, definitely not the Kentucky Derby. But apple picking is uh Derby. Someone's gonna ask you to like, hey, are you supposed to be back with my horse. Someone's gonna you were supposed to be working with them, like the same thing would happen at a fruit picking place, guys, boy, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's so good. Jan make us laugh so much. We love you so much. You picked the next voice mail buddy. I'm also Jewish. Oh wow from Austin. I called last week about the the edible uh and going to talk about it. End up go and talk about it doesn't matter and it's in the chat last week. What's important now is fuck you, Jeff Baclar. I like you. You're Jewish, you like the Devil's just like me. I'm also Jewish. But Sigment fucking rules. I big foot y'all on the big Epcot ball ride when I was like seven and cried until my dad ran and bought a new one, thinking that they had gotten it off the ride. My parents were billed back to me later and I thought it was really cute that they did that. But apparently I was such a pain in the ass. But Jeff Bagelar, fuck you. Figment's amazing. But I love y'all asking what what is Figment? So is this dragon who like only lives in this one very specific spot in Epcot Disney. Nay, he was not in the movie. I don't know. Maybe yeah, yeah, I don't think. I called them budget Spiro like he's this guy sucked. You're not Wrong's fine and look color Well, look, caller, I look first off, caller, there's a lot of Jewish people in New Jersey who liked the Devils. There's just one. We're not that unique, now, I'm kid, I'm kidding it. I used to have a really big soft spot for figment. I as well had a figment stuffed animal growing up. I was really probably saying that more to get a rise out of Mike. I'm not walking this back. I still stand by what I said, but hey, what are you gonna do? I mean, you know, it's figments. Just like this's not like going on anymore, you know, in his golden years now he's uh past his prime. There were people that were lining up for hours for that figment popcorn bucket. Oh yeah, I'm not. Yeah, you know, figments sometimes all so reminds me of like one of the characters from that show Dinosaurs as well. Okay, I can't see that. I could see that. Yes, that show terrified me. Yeah, that showed up love. It's pretty good. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. First appearance nineteen eighty three, almost as almost the same age as figment guys pretty sucked up. I was shocked at first, because I put Figment popcorn bucket onto eBay and then the first result is four hundred and fifty dollars. Jeez, but that's like a crazy buy it now. It's it's a crazy it's yes, it's also bedazzled, all right, Yeah, Figments Like he thinks he's like nineties troublemaker, you know, where by today standards is like the least threatening thing you could possibly wish for. I get Dennis to menace more Bert Simpson. Yeah, so you were saying Dennis Leary for some reason, I mean, did you have a troublemaker? Right, Yeah, a whole song about being an asshole. That's true, You're not wrong, and caller slash Manatti. Uh, they haven't been too nice to Figment either. Uh. You go to Epcot, you go on the Figment thing that rod hasn't been updated and god knows how long. So it's not like they're really putting Figment in prime real estate. They're not really shining a big spotlight on the guy either. So it can't just be me who thinks this way about the guy. Right, he was in that new Disney racing Fucking Christ, He's like I just rubbed the Genie's lamp and look, we knew this is gonna happen. All right, Look they just they just introduced you must have driven through a tunnel or something. Yeah, I do want to hear what he had to say, but I guess I joke. Okay, you could guess. Yeah, he tell me hell to tell me offline? He was the figment was in the racing game recently so and he was like a big deal there. That's how I found out about figm Figment is that that happened. And then Mike Manati got very excited, and I'm like, oh, this must be a Parks thang, and then I looked away. I feel like we could know what Mitch had to say about it. In a world where maybe like Mike gets like just like the wires get crossed and he gets really upset. I could see him becoming like a Joe Jay Jonah Jamison type for Dan, just like slamming his desk cigar in his mouth, that he's a menace. But the way Mike just said, I was talking for so long he didn't realize that's awesome. You know what's a bunny case scenario, right? That is what's funny is you know, we hear the discord hang up noise, right, but that doesn't go out. That's really that's the kicker though, Oh boy, figure out. Sorry, Mike, you'll have to just write your You have to leave a voicemail. I guess if you want to speak to this, we got a hold of you know the number, you know sat your first day, Dan reichert oh have had it? Bar barbarbar oops, okay, bar barbarbar barber barbarbar bar barber Jan Barbara Barbara. I was going to send this to him, but he's not a barber anymore. He's not. He wouldn't know who who it's addressed to. Yeah, it'd be very very confusing for him. I was, hey, I was literally singing that song this morning, barber Jan, while I was making a grilled cheese sandwich. There's something about something very catchy about the idea of barber Jan. Still, well, wait, Jan, if you feel comfortable, what is his future? Who knows? That's even better? I wanted to be mysterious. It's up to him. It's up to Jan, the taller, the taller of the two. Oh man, we got a figment emoji. Now I figured out how to add emojie and it's all over for everybody. Now, Oh no, there's figment. Yeah. All you really need to do is just send any of us like a p of a that's thirty two by thirty two, thirty two by thirty two yea, which is just not enough. By the way, the law. I tried to do a long one. I guess I did it. I guess I successfully did do a long one. Never mind, I got it. Eventually got a long boy. I got yeah in there from long boy. Yeah, what's what's that from the we use social network? Oh yeah, the me verse, the me verse? Thank you too for you. There's so many, there's there's a couple. Yeah, all right, it's my turn. Uh, and I'm going to choose. Maybe it's a chowder. I don't know if we want to get into this guy's from Tulsa. I'm driving, so if you can't hear me, I apologize. But this is devastatingly important. I was eating super earlier, but I felt like it had too much stuff in it and it
