  Hello. My name is Justin McElroy. If you're listening to this on the day it is released, I may very well be currently, as you listen to this, be getting a routine screening colonoscopy. I say with all sincerity, I would much rather go through this procedure again tomorrow than replicate the audio experiment you are about to receive. Please enjoy my brother, my brother, me naming 2026.

  The McElroy brothers are not experts, and their advice should never be followed. Travis insists he's a sexpert, but if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it. Also, this show isn't for kids, which I mention only so the babies out there will know how cool they are for listening. What's up, you cool baby?

• 1:55Travis McElroy?

  I'm gonna read the names of the year in a big list.

• 1:57Griffin McElroy?

  Awesome dude.

• 1:58Travis McElroy?

  Okay, we started with, of course, Zolo in 2010.

• 2:04Griffin McElroy?

  Was that like a evil, like a demon?

• 2:07Travis McElroy?

  I don't think there was, there wasn't a theme so much.

• 2:09Griffin McElroy?

  I thought Zolo was like a demon that if you called him on the telephone at three in the morning, he'd come to you and kill you.

• 2:14Travis McElroy?

  Two thou- two thousand and heaven get right with Christ.

• 2:17Griffin McElroy?

  That was a good one.

• 2:18Travis McElroy?

  Twenty twelve, twenty does getting it. Twenty dark, dig it up, get it out. Twenty fourteen, twenty forward.

• 2:25Travis McElroy?

  Oh, twenty four.

• 2:26Travis McElroy?

  Twenty grift teen, the con is on.

• 2:28Griffin McElroy?

  Sweet stuff.

• 2:29Travis McElroy?

  Twenty fixed teen, building bridges. Twenty servant teen, keep them guessing, zag on them.

• 2:36Griffin McElroy?

  Needed that after the last one.

• 2:37Travis McElroy?

  Eighteen, strong together, Frankenstein teen, become the monster. Twenty twenty is where things get a little interesting. You got twenty funny, fill your life with laughter and love.

• 2:47Griffin McElroy?

  Awesome.

• 2:48Travis McElroy?

  Which didn't track eventually and became twenty honey down to beesness.

• 2:52Travis McElroy?

  Uh huh.

• 2:53Travis McElroy?

  And then at some point, according to the official Wikipedia, we later retcon the year to be honey funny. Fill your life with laughter and bees.

• 3:02Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, I told you. Okay.

• 3:03Travis McElroy?

  So that's the official.

• 3:04Griffin McElroy?

  And that is a wrong that stood for far too long that has been set right. And I do feel better.

• 3:10Travis McElroy?

  Twenty twenty one was big dog run, no bones about it.

• 3:13Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 3:13Travis McElroy?

  Twenty twenty two.

• 3:15Griffin McElroy?

  Awesome.

• 3:15Travis McElroy?

  Twenty rendezvous, fancy takes flight, a very good one. Twenty sun and sea, surf the vibe. Twenty fungalore, he heard your wish. Then there's twenty twenty five, which was very briefly tummy buddy life, go to care. Before morphing into twenty thunder drive faster than.

• 3:32Griffin McElroy?

  Guys, that one sucked shit, dude. I've been so stressed.

• 3:36Travis McElroy?

  Or tummy?

• 3:36Griffin McElroy?

  Tommy buddy life.

• 3:38Travis McElroy?

  Tommy buddy life was a, that was, you know, I feel that the election of Donald J. Trump. Was not truly a reflection of the American soul, but rather a reflection of the failings of a system. That needs to, our system that needs to be fixed now.

• 3:54Griffin McElroy?

  I think a little bit of our soul got in there.

• 3:56Travis McElroy?

  Sure, this is a bit of a sticky soul and that's true of, of our naming of the year, but I think what it really reflected was how we needed to rethink the entire process.

• 4:04Griffin McElroy?

  Yes.

• 4:04Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, it was a failure of the system.

• 4:06Griffin McElroy?

  Right.

• 4:07Travis McElroy?

  And that's why this year we're not going to use the electoral college to come up with the, the theme. It's going to be a populist. Full blown populist vote to come up with the theme. We've rethought it.

• 4:19Griffin McElroy?

  We're doing it together. Maybe you're not watching the video and you're like, what the fuck's going on? We're all in the same.

• 4:23Travis McElroy?

  Maybe we didn't release the video.

• 4:24Griffin McElroy?

  Maybe we don't release the video. Maybe it's not very good stuff.

• 4:28Travis McElroy?

  Maybe there's only the video and the audio didn't work.

• 4:30Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 4:30Travis McElroy?

  Now, we have had just, I would say a series, not counting Tell Me Buddy Life, a series of real home runs.

• 4:38Griffin McElroy?

  Okay.

• 4:38Travis McElroy?

  Um, so I wanted to.

• 4:41Griffin McElroy?

  Can we stop before we do that and just say, I don't know that I lived particularly faster than fear this year. I did feel like a bit of a fraudster, if I'm being honest. I didn't do too much.

• 4:53Travis McElroy?

  I saw you live at least, you were at least one mile.

• 4:56Griffin McElroy?

  I don't live, I don't live a life, I don't live a life that presents frequent opportunities for courage.

• 5:01Travis McElroy?

  I kind of thought that like, do as we say, not as we do, was kind of understood, right? It's not our, I have a theme set for me by my gurus, you know, they have set it up for me.

• 5:11Griffin McElroy?

  That's awesome.

• 5:12Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's not a trickle down theme.

• 5:14Griffin McElroy?

  I gotta get some fucking gurus, dude.

• 5:17Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, you have to, man. Um, right off the bat.

• 5:20Griffin McElroy?

  I'm the only one who's gonna talk about whether or not they live faster than fear and be vulnerable.

• 5:24Travis McElroy?

  No, I do every day. I've stood on my roof to hang Christmas lights, man.

• 5:28Griffin McElroy?

  Did you?

• 5:28Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 5:29Griffin McElroy?

  That is brave.

• 5:30Travis McElroy?

  Thank you.

• 5:30Griffin McElroy?

  Did I do anything scary, you dingleberry? I don't think so.

• 5:34Travis McElroy?

  So I'm gonna pitch 20 dingleberries.

• 5:35Travis McElroy?

  I was Scrooge, I was Scrooge and I got body slammed by a, a, a former professional wrestler. I don't know if you can ever be a former professional wrestler, you know what I mean?

• 5:45Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 5:45Travis McElroy?

  Dogs in there, dogs in there. But I got body slammed while I was playing Scrooge. That was, took a lot of bravery.

• 5:49Griffin McElroy?

  I did the high ropes corset at Great Wolf Lodge.

• 5:52Travis McElroy?

  Oh, yeah, there we go.

• 5:55Travis McElroy?

  Whoa. Okay, this has gotten too personal. Let's talk about 2026.

• 5:58Travis McElroy?

  Okay.

• 5:59Griffin McElroy?

  Hmm. Is that, is that your first bitch?

• 6:02Travis McElroy?

  What I wanted to say was, the one thing I wanted to try was, 2026, let's go enjoy Christmas. And that would be the theme is, 2026.

• 6:11Griffin McElroy?

  Dude, I'd love a short, I would love a short line.

• 6:14Travis McElroy?

  Let's go enjoy Christmas.

• 6:15Travis McElroy?

  I don't like the way those two concepts pair together.

• 6:18Travis McElroy?

  Okay.

• 6:19Travis McElroy?

  Is my bra, I think out of context.

• 6:21Travis McElroy?

  They don't know about the specific fact that we are recording this while all of our family is out enjoying each other's company.

• 6:27Travis McElroy?

  Yes.

• 6:27Travis McElroy?

  And we could be.

• 6:28Travis McElroy?

  And we're stuck here. Enjoying each other's company.

• 6:29Travis McElroy?

  And we're accruing a debt right now by doing this.

• 6:33Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, no, I mean, Rachel's gonna take a nap later and I'm gonna feel too guilty to take one because we were in here doing.

• 6:39Travis McElroy?

  I won't, I'll take a nap.

• 6:40Travis McElroy?

  I don't nap, I'm.

• 6:41Griffin McElroy?

  Juice, I appreciate the all, we're in Justin's house right now and the hospitality he shows us is like such a, such, it's so incredible. You're such an incredible host and brother and I love you so much. These zero sugar Kool-Aid jammers are trashed here, dude. These shits are trashed here, dude. This is absolute junk, bud. This shit sucks, bud.

• 7:05Travis McElroy?

  Coming and you know how he tries to use these jammers?

• 7:07Travis McElroy?

  No, yeah, it's the kind of thing you get so other parents will think you're doing a better job than you are.

• 7:11Griffin McElroy?

  This tastes like the shit that they would make us at church when they would cut it and cut it and cut it.

• 7:16Travis McElroy?

  Oh, God, that makes me mad to think about. Oh, man, that makes me mad. I hadn't thought about that forever. You know how you get iced tea and it's unsweetened at like a function? We would do that at our church with unsweetened Kool-Aid.

• 7:28Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, man, yeah.

• 7:30Travis McElroy?

  Anyway, 2026, let's go.

• 7:32Griffin McElroy?

  I don't wanna do that. Listen.

• 7:33Travis McElroy?

  You do have to type it down, though.

• 7:35Griffin McElroy?

  That sucks. I'm gonna type when I have this thing in my hand.

• 7:38Travis McElroy?

  I can hold it for you if you want.

• 7:39Travis McElroy?

  So many people have put in comments in the past year have put in comments, yo, Justin, make it 2026.

• 7:46Travis McElroy?

  How many people?

• 7:47Travis McElroy?

  So many and I just wanted to go ahead and represent them. Can you increase the?

• 7:52Griffin McElroy?

  The font size?

• 7:53Travis McElroy?

  The, dude, the font size, the, and the amount of screen reels, the font size for sure, the zoom, the amount of screen real estate. I mean, everything about it is illegible and unpleasant.

• 8:03Griffin McElroy?

  That's too much.

• 8:04Travis McElroy?

  No, I don't think it is, man. If you think about a video, I mean, it doesn't really matter because.

• 8:08Griffin McElroy?

  Do you have a subtitle for 2026?

• 8:10Travis McElroy?

  Let's go enjoy Christmas.

• 8:13Travis McElroy?

  Oh, conceptually challenging.

• 8:16Griffin McElroy?

  That sucks. Can I go ahead and strike through that, Travis?

• 8:19Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 8:20Travis McElroy?

  I see I've been all voted.

• 8:23Griffin McElroy?

  Gonna leave a comment on that for later.

• 8:25Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, so we remember. I'm gonna pitch twenty get your kicks appreciating the beauty of America's greatest road.

• 8:33Griffin McElroy?

  I don't know how to hyphenate these. Demonstrating, celebrating?

• 8:37Travis McElroy?

  Celebrating the beauty of America's greatest road.

• 8:40Travis McElroy?

  Okay.

• 8:41Travis McElroy?

  All about Route 66.

• 8:43Travis McElroy?

  Uh, that would be an interesting match with our.

• 8:48Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, Route 66. I don't want to do a sequel to car stuff because we did car stuff last year.

• 8:53Travis McElroy?

  Well, this is about the road itself. Well, that's about driving and more about the journey.

• 8:57Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, alright. Check this shit out. Wait, I'm gonna save that one because I think that's got juice and we are obviously burning some goofy ones. Right here. How about, um, twenty check for ticks, no time for lime?

• 9:10Travis McElroy?

  Oh, twenty check for ticks?

• 9:13Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty check for ticks, no time for lime.

• 9:20Travis McElroy?

  Uh.

• 9:21Griffin McElroy?

  Do you guys, sorry. Do you guys like when people don't check for ticks and they get Lyme disease because of it? Or Rocky Mountain spotted fever, any other tick-borne illnesses?

• 9:31Travis McElroy?

  This up every year.

• 9:32Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, no, it is a serious problem.

• 9:34Griffin McElroy?

  Some of us got really sick from one of those.

• 9:36Travis McElroy?

  It would be nice to raise awareness for, for one, for a change.

• 9:39Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, that would be cool.

• 9:40Travis McElroy?

  With him. I just feel like.

• 9:43Travis McElroy?

  How often?

• 9:44Travis McElroy?

  How often is that gonna come?

• 9:45Griffin McElroy?

  Anytime you go outside or.

• 9:47Travis McElroy?

  Anytime, even like to take out the trash?

• 9:49Griffin McElroy?

  If you go in the house of somebody who you think may have been in a forest earlier that day, you better check for ticks when you get home.

• 9:54Travis McElroy?

  I do also kind of feel like our audience maybe has a higher preponderance of indoor kids.

• 10:00Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 10:00Travis McElroy?

  You know, maybe?

• 10:02Griffin McElroy?

  I just thought, I, I just thought we could partner with Justin Sibrel like for this one, but obviously that's, we can move on and we don't have to.

• 10:10Travis McElroy?

  Twenty Dixie chicks, goodbye Earl.

• 10:12Griffin McElroy?

  Okay, so this one's cool. I had one too that, I'll write yours down. Dixie chicks. God, do you guys mind if I just don't do like punctuation and stuff?

• 10:22Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, no man.

• 10:22Griffin McElroy?

  Sort of stenographer, there goes my phone. And goodbye?

• 10:27Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, goodbye Earl.

• 10:28Travis McElroy?

  That's just the song.

• 10:29Griffin McElroy?

  So I had twenty just the chicks. They actually stopped using Dixie in 2020 with the release of their eighth studio album, Gaslighter.

• 10:39Travis McElroy?

  So, but that, doesn't that leave room for us to be the Dixie chicks?

• 10:44Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, we could also, if you guys were around the twenty Dixie chicks cowboy take me away.

• 10:48Travis McElroy?

  Oh.

• 10:50Griffin McElroy?

  Man, but it can't be.

• 10:53Griffin McElroy?

  Here's the thing, I don't want to. I don't wanna be the Dixie Boys, like so bad. And we can't just drop the Dixie like the chicks did. And just be the boys. Because that's nothing. That's been, the SEO on that is fucking shot dudes.

• 11:12Travis McElroy?

  The Dixie Dicks.

• 11:14Travis McElroy?

  What?

• 11:15Griffin McElroy?

  Justin, do you have one?

• 11:16Travis McElroy?

  What do you think about? Twenty stunts and flicks.

• 11:20Travis McElroy?

  Stunts and flicks?

• 11:21Griffin McElroy?

  Stunts in flicks.

• 11:23Travis McElroy?

  Hooray for Hollywood. And so this is a year that is all about appreciating our great stunt artists.

• 11:30Griffin McElroy?

  That's cool.

• 11:31Travis McElroy?

  That keep our celebrities safe. They're out there risking their bodies on the front line to protect, you know, our. Ray Romano's, our.

• 11:40Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, he's doing a lot of movies that require stunt people.

• 11:43Travis McElroy?

  You know, it's twenty stunts and flicks, hooray for Hollywood.

• 11:46Griffin McElroy?

  We just watched Home Alone, which has an all-timer. When he goes across the zip line and turns into a twenty-nine-year-old small woman. And then back into himself for a little while.

• 11:58Travis McElroy?

  Turns into Mary Martin. Flying like Peter Pan.

• 12:01Griffin McElroy?

  Shit rules. Uh, that's a good one. I got, I dropped my fucking thumb. Okay, I wish I didn't groan that loud when I bent over not that far.

• 12:12Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty hit the bricks. We've had it. This one I think would be about Donald, like, maybe this is the year where we finally bumped that fucking guy out of the house.

• 12:22Travis McElroy?

  Oh, you're getting.

• 12:23Griffin McElroy?

  I don't know how much, I mean, yeah, I don't know how much weight we can really put behind that effort, but if there's anything we can do to. Hit the bricks, pal.

• 12:33Travis McElroy?

  Hit the bricks. I, I, it's pretty strongly worded.

• 12:37Griffin McElroy?

  I'll be honest, I'm not gonna write it down.

• 12:40Travis McElroy?

  Okay, you didn't like it that much?

• 12:41Griffin McElroy?

  The vibe in the room was so, after I said it, the vibe in the room was so toxic.

• 12:46Travis McElroy?

  How about this? Twenty honey sticks, back in business.

• 12:52Griffin McElroy?

  Let me sit, can I digest it for a minute?

• 12:57Travis McElroy?

  I'm a yes.

• 13:00Travis McElroy?

  So that's two yeses. You wanna hold the mic for this one, Griffin?

• 13:04Travis McElroy?

  To per change.

• 13:05Griffin McElroy?

  What's a honey stick? Is a honey stick one of those things they sell at?

• 13:08Travis McElroy?

  Market.

• 13:08Griffin McElroy?

  The farmer's market.

• 13:09Travis McElroy?

  Again, the Floyd's, fresh fruit.

• 13:11Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah. Do you guys like those?

• 13:13Travis McElroy?

  I always think I'm gonna like them more than I do.

• 13:16Travis McElroy?

  No, yeah, but there's also not a lot there to suffer through.

• 13:18Travis McElroy?

  Do you want my brother to know if I like honey sticks or fucking not? You need to be.

• 13:23Travis McElroy?

  You're right, you're right.

• 13:23Travis McElroy?

  Thank you.

• 13:24Griffin McElroy?

  I have.

• 13:24Travis McElroy?

  Griffin?

• 13:25Griffin McElroy?

  I.

• 13:25Travis McElroy?

  I kinda like them.

• 13:27Griffin McElroy?

  I've become a hu- a nightly tea man. I'd love to drink a cuppa with my wife as we watch our programs.

• 13:34Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 13:34Griffin McElroy?

  That thing's just eating shit left and right, dude.

• 13:37Travis McElroy?

  Recording. That's the worst part here. Maybe if I put it to work.

• 13:41Travis McElroy?

  Maybe if you lay it down.

• 13:42Griffin McElroy?

  My honey consumption has easily quintupled um because of this new habit of mine.

• 13:48Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 13:48Griffin McElroy?

  I don't want it in stick form though.

• 13:50Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 13:50Griffin McElroy?

  Honey stick could also be that thing, the ridged guy that they dip in there.

• 13:54Travis McElroy?

  Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 13:55Griffin McElroy?

  Drizzle, I do like that as well.

• 13:58Griffin McElroy?

  Can we explore some other options before we commit to one that we've sort of done before?

• 14:02Travis McElroy?

  Can we?

• 14:02Travis McElroy?

  I think honey sticks are also.

• 14:04Travis McElroy?

  Can we just like?

• 14:07Travis McElroy?

  You said you wanted to do a short one. Twenty honey sticks back in business fulfills a promise. It makes good on some, a check that we wrote.

• 14:17Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 14:18Travis McElroy?

  Five years ago, however many years it's been.

• 14:21Griffin McElroy?

  Tell me what twenty honey sticks means to you.

• 14:25Travis McElroy?

  This is, this is attainable. Everybody can start making these.

• 14:28Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 14:28Travis McElroy?

  This is a small business. This is a, this is entrepreneurialism. This is, this is start your.

• 14:33Travis McElroy?

  We're gonna cure unemployed.

• 14:35Travis McElroy?

  They're gonna cure, you start your own honey stick brand, you send them with your kids.

• 14:38Griffin McElroy?

  Okay, cool.

• 14:39Travis McElroy?

  They show up to the cafeteria.

• 14:40Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 14:41Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 14:41Travis McElroy?

  They uh, the other kids forgot dessert. They're honey sticks.

• 14:45Travis McElroy?

  Griffin slams the slammer.

• 14:47Griffin McElroy?

  I don't.

• 14:48Travis McElroy?

  Also, think about the merch opportunities. We can sell those in the store. Honey sticks, different flavors of honey sticks?

• 14:53Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 14:54Travis McElroy?

  Do you remember in twenty twenty?

• 14:57Travis McElroy?

  It it helped a lot.

• 14:59Travis McElroy?

  What?

• 15:00Griffin McElroy?

  Do I remember what in twenty twenty?

• 15:01Travis McElroy?

  We originally had a bee themed one.

• 15:04Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, down to bees.

• 15:05Travis McElroy?

  Down to bee business.

• 15:06Griffin McElroy?

  For like three months.

• 15:07Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, it didn't pan out. So we're gonna try one more time.

• 15:10Travis McElroy?

  Back in bees.

• 15:10Travis McElroy?

  Twenty honey sticks back in bees.

• 15:12Griffin McElroy?

  I don't like it. And last year, I didn't like twen- Tell Me Buddy Life.

• 15:16Travis McElroy?

  I think you pitched twenty honey life.

• 15:18Griffin McElroy?

  I hated that one and I stayed ten toes on that. I never liked that one. I did not. I may have said it. I didn't, wouldn't have said it if I thought it was gonna go through, but I ca- I bowed to the, I kissed the ring cuz we had been doing it for an hour and a half and we had to get the fuck out of there. I kissed the ring and I regret it. I'm sticking by my guns. I don't think so.

• 15:40Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty.

• 15:43Griffin McElroy?

  Undermix. S- some like it lumpy.

• 15:46Travis McElroy?

  Huh. Are you gonna write that one down?

• 15:49Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, I am actually.

• 15:50Travis McElroy?

  Okay.

• 15:51Griffin McElroy?

  Hold my microphone, bitch.

• 15:55Travis McElroy?

  This is good. This is good. I'm glad I, I'm glad I closed the vents.

• 16:00Griffin McElroy?

  Did you? To really hurry things along?

• 16:03Travis McElroy?

  I wanted to get that Scrooge energy in here.

• 16:05Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, so this is, this can be like, don't overthink it. You can't, sometimes you can just put it out there and have, have some people like it instead of having to be perfectionist about everything.

• 16:17Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 16:18Griffin McElroy?

  Some like it lumpy. I actually, in my phone, I had it written, love it lumpy.

• 16:22Travis McElroy?

  Some love it lumpy?

• 16:23Griffin McElroy?

  No, it just said twenty undermix, love it lumpy.

• 16:26Travis McElroy?

  Huh. I kinda love.

• 16:29Travis McElroy?

  Can you think, can you write down some love it lumpy? Cuz saying it makes me happy.

• 16:34Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, I'll just do, I'll do it like, um, some.

• 16:38Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, that's good.

• 16:39Travis McElroy?

  Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 16:40Griffin McElroy?

  Um, some love it lumpy.

• 16:42Travis McElroy?

  Twenty tips and tricks, what is it? Hack your life?

  Okay, that's fine.

• 17:04Griffin McElroy?

  Love the prefix, hate the suffix.

  We can change that.

  It could be a continuation, twenty tips and tricks, colon, to improve your life.

• 17:15Travis McElroy?

  Right, so then it's like one statement?

• 17:17Griffin McElroy?

  Oh shit, wait, that is a good point is that it sounds like we are saying here's twenty tips. I like when the twenty is like unrelated completely to the rest of the idea. But twenty tips and tricks, I think is strong. I just don't know about hack, hack your life.

• 17:30Travis McElroy?

  There's so many life hacks that are already out there. I feel like people would be happier if they stopped. Stop.

• 17:38Travis McElroy?

  They stop hacking their life?

• 17:39Griffin McElroy?

  Just start living your life, yeah, yeah.

• 17:43Travis McElroy?

  Twenty skip the tricks. Just live your life. Twenty skip the tricks.

  Twenty, no more tricks.

  Well, just live your life.

• 17:52Travis McElroy?

  Twenty skip the tricks.

• 17:53Griffin McElroy?

  Maybe there's not a shortcut.

• 17:55Travis McElroy?

  Maybe, you know, you don't mean, maybe just live your, maybe don't do it the easy way. Maybe just do it our way, you know what I mean?

• 18:02Travis McElroy?

  Go your own way.

• 18:02Travis McElroy?

  Go your own way.

• 18:03Griffin McElroy?

  Now, can it be like? But can we couch that like twenty skip the tricks? A couple times when presented with the opportunity this year, take the hard way, don't always.

• 18:14Travis McElroy?

  I feel like we don't need the asterisk, you, you know, it's like, just live your life, you know?

• 18:20Griffin McElroy?

  Um, I had twenty bag of tricks, master your.

• 18:22Travis McElroy?

  I had that too, yeah.

• 18:24Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty bag of tricks, master your magic.

• 18:27Travis McElroy?

  Oh.

• 18:28Griffin McElroy?

  That can be like, you know, you know what's special about you, you actually do know. Maybe, maybe you used to know. It, you can take that back and master your magic.

• 18:40Travis McElroy?

  Master your magic, twenty bag of tricks.

• 18:42Griffin McElroy?

  Maybe not master your magic, but having a bag of, it doesn't sound anything like twenty.

• 18:46Travis McElroy?

  Can we try, like, do any of them? Twenty twenty sex, that sounds exactly like twenty, no question.

• 18:51Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 18:52Travis McElroy?

  Um, get your, nope. Check four, not at all. Dixie, not bad, honestly, Dixie, twenty, it's not, it's closest.

  I mean, honey, I'll go ahead and say that honey is gonna smash in this.

• 19:04Travis McElroy?

  Just the, nope. Stuntson, I mean.

• 19:07Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, that's in there.

• 19:08Travis McElroy?

  Stuntson is not bad.

• 19:09Travis McElroy?

  Honey's.

• 19:09Travis McElroy?

  Honey's.

• 19:10Griffin McElroy?

  Honey.

• 19:11Travis McElroy?

  Twenty hunnies.

• 19:12Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, I mean, there's a reason we've been saying, can I, can I just say the fact that you're surprised by that?

• 19:17Travis McElroy?

  No, no, it's just hearing it again. It's like returning to it. It's like hitting me again with a good one.

• 19:21Griffin McElroy?

  Under, kind of sounds like tun, under.

• 19:24Travis McElroy?

  Twenty, thunder, thunder.

• 19:25Travis McElroy?

  I've got one that I think.

• 19:27Travis McElroy?

  Wait, wait, we're reading all of them.

• 19:28Travis McElroy?

  Oh.

• 19:28Travis McElroy?

  Tips and twenty tips and nope. Skip the, no, baggo, no.

• 19:33Griffin McElroy?

  Okay.

• 19:34Travis McElroy?

  Twenty punching digs. Welcome to Fist City.

• 19:37Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty punching dicks?

• 19:40Travis McElroy?

  Welcome to Fist City.

• 19:41Griffin McElroy?

  Welcome to Fist City. Now Travis, I'll be honest, I think Fist City is gonna get a lot of foot traffic from some.

• 19:49Travis McElroy?

  So confused. Traffic?

• 19:50Griffin McElroy?

  So confused and I will, I will say probably pretty disappointed.

• 19:56Travis McElroy?

  There'll be spiders all over the world wide web. Don't go in there. Is that what you think?

• 20:00Griffin McElroy?

  Uh-uh.

• 20:01Travis McElroy?

  No, it's been crawled. Um. Welcome to Fist City.

• 20:07Travis McElroy?

  Ah, what on earth does that mean?

• 20:09Griffin McElroy?

  Just, I don't want to read this one. I got, I got like ten hours of sleep over the last like four nights because Gus has crew and I woke up in the middle of the night and I wrote this one down.

• 20:21Travis McElroy?

  Okay.

• 20:21Griffin McElroy?

  But I don't want to say it out loud.

• 20:27Travis McElroy?

  Twenty big old tits Jug City Showdown.

• 20:35Griffin McElroy?

  I thought that was cool. I didn't know what Jug City Showdown was.

• 20:43Travis McElroy?

  Oh, no, no, no, you took the wrong exit.

• 20:47Travis McElroy?

  You went one too far. You gotta go back if you're looking for the Jug City Showdown.

• 20:51Griffin McElroy?

  I also, can I just say guys?

• 20:53Travis McElroy?

  You're in Nutsburg. You've gone way too far.

• 20:55Griffin McElroy?

  I am obsessed with the idea of referring to a single breast as a jug. That's a, that's a word that works in the plural, I guess, kind of if it's nineteen ninety-nine and you're on the man's show. But I think referring to just one jug.

• 21:11Travis McElroy?

  What is the name of the year again?

• 21:14Griffin McElroy?

  Don't drool.

• 21:16Travis McElroy?

  Twenty big old tits.

• 21:19Travis McElroy?

  Jug City Showdown.

• 21:21Travis McElroy?

  Okay, hold on.

• 21:24Travis McElroy?

  What is big old tits?

• 21:27Travis McElroy?

  Twenty twenty six? Gone it all.

• 21:33Travis McElroy?

  It's twenty and then it's supposed to rhyme twenty and biggle?

• 21:37Griffin McElroy?

  I didn't know that when I wrote it high at four in the morning.

• 21:41Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 21:42Griffin McElroy?

  Alright.

• 21:43Travis McElroy?

  Alright.

• 21:43Travis McElroy?

  So far, so good.

• 21:44Travis McElroy?

  It's not bad.

• 21:46Griffin McElroy?

  Um, no, I don't wanna write that down.

• 21:49Travis McElroy?

  I was trying to get this one to work phonetically. Twenty the phoenix. Something phoenix. I don't think the is it.

• 21:59Travis McElroy?

  From the ashes would be.

• 22:01Griffin McElroy?

  Can I tell you? It's the it's the meter dude.

• 22:03Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, I couldn't get the meter to work.

• 22:05Griffin McElroy?

  Meter ain't right. And the meter's gotta be right. That I the rhyming I don't give a shit about, but the meter's gotta be right.

• 22:11Travis McElroy?

  Uh, twenty flick your bicks, burn it all down.

• 22:14Travis McElroy?

  What?

• 22:15Griffin McElroy?

  Flick your bicks?

• 22:16Travis McElroy?

  Flick your.

• 22:16Travis McElroy?

  You know, it was the ad campaign for big lighters to like.

• 22:20Travis McElroy?

  I don't wanna give more free advertising to these corporate.

• 22:23Travis McElroy?

  Well, it wouldn't have to be free. I mean, we could.

• 22:25Travis McElroy?

  We should do hold ourselves hostage.

• 22:28Griffin McElroy?

  Check this one out, guys. Twenty Stevie Nicks, a moonlight blessing.

• 22:34Travis McElroy?

  Who?

• 22:35Travis McElroy?

  So Stevie.

• 22:36Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty Stevie twenty.

• 22:38Travis McElroy?

  Stevie.

• 22:38Griffin McElroy?

  Getting one of the one of the things there.

• 22:40Travis McElroy?

  That's one of the.

• 22:40Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty Stevie Nicks, a moonlight blessing.

• 22:44Travis McElroy?

  God.

• 22:45Griffin McElroy?

  This is more of like, uh, I don't know.

• 22:47Travis McElroy?

  What does it mean to you?

• 22:48Griffin McElroy?

  Vibe. No, it's just a vibe here. Fungelord didn't mean anything to me, but it was a vibe and it was cool and I wrote that shit to the finish line. I saw Stevie Nicks once live on stage. She came out um, in the middle of a concert with a with a not Bob Dylan, but the other one. Um, and and it was.

• 23:07Travis McElroy?

  Springsteen?

• 23:07Griffin McElroy?

  No.

• 23:08Travis McElroy?

  I'm trying to think of like.

• 23:09Griffin McElroy?

  Neil, no, not Neil Simon.

• 23:11Travis McElroy?

  Neil Young?

• 23:12Griffin McElroy?

  Neil Young, that's what it was. It was alright, but I just her vibe is like.

• 23:16Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, it's great.

• 23:17Griffin McElroy?

  It's like wild. I'd love to just harness some of that, I guess.

• 23:21Travis McElroy?

  Twenty crunchy mix granola gray yes sir.

• 23:24Griffin McElroy?

  Okay.

• 23:26Travis McElroy?

  Huh.

• 23:26Travis McElroy?

  Twenty crunchy ni- no, you, okay, well, I guess you gotta write that down for history's sake, but.

• 23:33Travis McElroy?

  Sounds like you really.

• 23:34Travis McElroy?

  Crunchy mix.

• 23:36Travis McElroy?

  Not the granola part, though, for surely.

• 23:38Travis McElroy?

  Granola, question mark.

• 23:40Travis McElroy?

  Nope.

• 23:42Travis McElroy?

  Question mark. GraYESa.

• 23:44Travis McElroy?

  And this is just like a celebration of granola?

• 23:47Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, 20 crunchy mix, granola, GraYESa, they make the N, the N and the O should be capitalized.

• 23:56Travis McElroy?

  I can't see. Can I tell you something, Justin, that I've just noticed? Griffin and I are both pulling from a list that we constructed.

• 24:03Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, worked hard on.

• 24:04Travis McElroy?

  And it seems like you just pulled 20 crunchy mix straight out of your asshole.

• 24:10Griffin McElroy?

  Are you, are you generating these? Is this generative?

• 24:14Travis McElroy?

  You know that this happens every year.

• 24:16Travis McElroy?

  It's like the holidays.

• 24:17Griffin McElroy?

  The holidays can be a tough time for families.

• 24:21Griffin McElroy?

  20, 20, watch the wicks.

• 24:24Travis McElroy?

  I've never come up with them beforehand, guys. I've never come up with them beforehand. It's just usually we are, um.

• 24:32Griffin McElroy?

  You don't see, I don't see.

• 24:33Travis McElroy?

  You don't see it.

• 24:34Griffin McElroy?

  The energy, yeah. You always have your hands out of screen and you're making wrestling noises that you have like a legal pad.

• 24:40Travis McElroy?

  You shuffle papers from time to time, which I thought was.

• 24:43Griffin McElroy?

  20, 20, watch the wicks. Keep them trimmed. Please, it's a good one. It's a good one.

• 24:52Griffin McElroy?

  It's not, I don't worry yet now.

• 24:53Travis McElroy?

  Okay, we'll circle back.

• 24:54Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 24:55Travis McElroy?

  I'm worried that you guys are gonna take this assumption that I didn't come up with these ahead of time. And you're gonna let that color how you feel.

• 25:06Griffin McElroy?

  About the ones you make?

• 25:07Travis McElroy?

  The other one. Well, that can go either way.

• 25:08Travis McElroy?

  Sorry, the ones that I've made before now.

• 25:11Griffin McElroy?

  The ones you've made. I mean, let's go back.

• 25:13Travis McElroy?

  No, no, no, no, that I have not yet announced, but have previously made.

• 25:17Travis McElroy?

  You're saving the good one.

• 25:18Travis McElroy?

  I'm worried, no.

• 25:19Travis McElroy?

  Okay.

• 25:20Griffin McElroy?

  You just told us there aren't ones that you prepared ahead of time.

• 25:23Travis McElroy?

  That's not what I said. You guys made an assumption that I didn't prepare ahead of time.

• 25:27Travis McElroy?

  You didn't deny it.

• 25:29Travis McElroy?

  I didn't realize I was on trial, Travis. I thought I was recording a podcast.

• 25:33Travis McElroy?

  20 crunchy mix, one you made up before this recording.

• 25:36Travis McElroy?

  It's not one of the best ones I made up.

• 25:38Travis McElroy?

  Okay.

• 25:39Griffin McElroy?

  Justin's hemorrhoid pillow is making my back sore. Seems like it's doing the opposite job of that it's supposed to.

• 25:46Travis McElroy?

  That's the lumbar pillow. You're sitting.

• 25:48Travis McElroy?

  I had 20 burning wicks, light in the darkness.

• 25:51Griffin McElroy?

  Light in the darkness sounds so hugely, hugely, hugely, uh, Chris, Christian.

• 25:58Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 26:00Griffin McElroy?

  Which is ironic because I like 20, 20, watch the wicks, keep them trimmed and burning. You know, from that's from, I think, one of the sermons on the mount and it's like be get be ready.

• 26:12Travis McElroy?

  I also had twenty more John Wiggs. Just saying like keep making them, you know what I mean? I enjoy John Wick movies. I would like.

• 26:18Griffin McElroy?

  Should we write? Should I write any of those?

• 26:20Travis McElroy?

  I would rather you didn't.

• 26:21Griffin McElroy?

  Okay.

• 26:21Travis McElroy?

  Okay, yeah, I would rather you write down.

• 26:24Griffin McElroy?

  Something that rhymes with twenty.

• 26:25Travis McElroy?

  I would rather you write down twenty under bricks. Cobblestone ahoy. And this is interesting because there's cobblestone under a lot of our brick streets and they're so beautiful. And they really can.

• 26:36Griffin McElroy?

  Is this just telling people to dig up?

• 26:38Griffin McElroy?

  Smash up? Yeah, Travis, just tell people go smash up the streets.

• 26:42Travis McElroy?

  I knew that you guys would start.

• 26:44Griffin McElroy?

  Do you guys like My Brother, My Brother and Me? It's my favorite podcasts. Hand me that jackhammer so I can smash up this street. In Brooklyn. Hey, we're in Brooklyn now smashing up the streets. Cause your brothers told me to, hey.

• 26:55Travis McElroy?

  Once you guys decided that I hadn't made these up ahead of time, I knew you were gonna start being critical like this.

• 27:00Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah. Yeah.

• 27:02Griffin McElroy?

  Uh huh.

• 27:03Travis McElroy?

  Twenty twenty river sticks, the souls must flow.

• 27:06Griffin McElroy?

  River doesn't sound anything like twenty, not like under bricks.

• 27:10Travis McElroy?

  Okay, but twenty river sticks, the souls must flow. It's very threatening now that I've said it out loud.

• 27:15Griffin McElroy?

  It's really threatening.

• 27:16Travis McElroy?

  It's very threatening.

• 27:17Griffin McElroy?

  Travis, I'm worried you're gonna be blowing that mic out if you swallow it like that.

• 27:21Griffin McElroy?

  Is there something we can do with the band sticks there?

• 27:23Travis McElroy?

  Say a river.

• 27:24Griffin McElroy?

  Something like.

• 27:25Travis McElroy?

  Twenty classic sticks.

• 27:27Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty classic sticks, twenty twenty.

• 27:29Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty funky sticks.

• 27:31Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty funky sticks.

• 27:32Griffin McElroy?

  Back and funkier.

• 27:35Travis McElroy?

  Twenty pit up sticks, the staff is yours.

• 27:38Griffin McElroy?

  Oh, twenty funky sticks out to the boneyard. And it's like.

• 27:41Griffin McElroy?

  Out to the boneyard.

• 27:42Griffin McElroy?

  Get the B sides, those sticks B sides.

• 27:44Griffin McElroy?

  Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 27:45Griffin McElroy?

  Dude, and we could do all bones and stuff for our like, dress up like skeleton out to the boneyard. I like the aesthetic of that.

• 27:55Travis McElroy?

  And now I'm hung up though on something like twenty perfect sticks. Like, you know, search the fields or walk in the woods. But we're, it's the uh, it's the un- undy. Undy. It's the undy of the whole thing, you know? Funky. I don't, Travis, can, Travis, can we be a united front here against this? I would say draconic authoritarian, we have to rhyme with twenty thing. Yeah, man, because we, there's ten of them, Justin, that will have twenty in the middle. We've done a good job a lot of the time doing it. We have earned one where we can say whatever the fuck we want to. Okay. Twenty twenty six, seven, let's keep it going. Now, I think it's very funny. Huh. I think it's very. Would this be a two year one?

• 28:40Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, I think it's very funny if Jan, Jan won, we plant the flag and say like, I know everyone's getting sick of this one. I know everyone's getting sick of this one. But for one year. Yeah. No, dude, because if you do it, it has to be the theme for two years. Yeah, for two years, we're saying seven hundred and thirty days. Twenty twenty six, seven, keep it going. Yeah. That's awesome. When you said keep it going, I thought you meant for two calendar years. That's what I assumed, because it's six seven, it's bridging the gap. That is cool. And I promise you that us, like, three middle-aged dudes saying it a lot would kill it. And our show, I think both, but there's the thing, right? Yeah, it's a mutually assured. Then we kind of grab on to them. March of twenty twenty seven and we're still like, what's up? Hey, what's up, T's?

• 29:25Travis McElroy?

  Hey. Can I get a, a yeah, please, for the love of God. Where'd you all go?

• 29:34Travis McElroy?

  We're gonna stream more Fortnite, you promise? Go ahead and write down twenty twenty six. All right, you gotta get out, you're, you're goofing out, you're busting out of frame, bud. Oh, you're right, I'm gonna lean back in. Um, do you want to hear my actual favorite one? Oh, I don't know if I'm ready yet. Okay. I got like a bunch more stinkers. Oh, okay. Oh, wow. Twenty Pick and Mix, Grab Bag Year is another one that I had.

• 29:57Griffin McElroy?

  Huh. That seems too, that seems too hard for us to like, we, I, I wanna be able to control the message a little bit.

• 30:04Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 30:05Griffin McElroy?

  Um, although that does keep us from having to, um, like, take the blame for when it's really bad, like coming out of life. Which I do like. Twenty See What Sticks, Throw It All at the Wall.

• 30:17Travis McElroy?

  That was my favorite one, Twenty See What Sticks, Spaghetti at the Wall. That was my favorite one.

• 30:21Travis McElroy?

  Wait, guys, I came up with Twenty See What Sticks, Spaghetti at the Wall.

• 30:26Travis McElroy?

  Are you kidding?

• 30:27Travis McElroy?

  But. No, but it was one of the many that I came up with ahead of time.

• 30:30Griffin McElroy?

  Do you, are you guys married to spaghetti?

• 30:34Travis McElroy?

  Uh, no, but I will if it's required for the role.

• 30:37Travis McElroy?

  Is it, what was yours, Throw It at the Wall?

• 30:40Griffin McElroy?

  Will you open mouth kiss a plate of spaghetti for one hundred and fifty dollars?

• 30:45Travis McElroy?

  In front of my wife?

• 30:46Griffin McElroy?

  IMDB credit. Throw it all at the wall.

• 30:49Travis McElroy?

  Twenty? I think Throw It at the Wall would be better. I think all.

• 30:54Griffin McElroy?

  You don't like the rhyme?

• 30:55Travis McElroy?

  Twenty, twenty, twenty? See What Sticks, All at the Wall.

• 31:00Griffin McElroy?

  That sounds like we're about to get in the ball with the bop.

• 31:02Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 31:05Travis McElroy?

  So you're writing it down immediately, right?

• 31:07Travis McElroy?

  All set at the wall, throw it at the wall.

• 31:12Travis McElroy?

  Twenty See What Sticks.

• 31:17Griffin McElroy?

  That's a my bim bam ass name, man.

• 31:19Travis McElroy?

  That's good, twenty two.

• 31:21Travis McElroy?

  I would love to work with Richie on some.

• 31:23Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, sure.

• 31:26Griffin McElroy?

  We could fix, we could fix him. Guys, you put us in a room with Kid Rock for, we go out to a cabin for a month.

• 31:33Travis McElroy?

  Not in this room.

• 31:34Griffin McElroy?

  Not in this room.

• 31:36Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, we need a lot more ventilation.

• 31:38Griffin McElroy?

  Well, we even need space to kinda like break off and like have our own kind of like, sessions where we internalize a lot of the stuff that we talk. I think you give us a month in a cabin with Kid Rock and we could fix him. We could fix him. Yeah, I mean, either way.

• 31:51Travis McElroy?

  We'd have to break him first.

• 31:52Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, I said twenty under makes love at Lumpy, right?

• 31:55Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 31:55Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty?

• 31:59Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty pumped up kicks foster your people.

• 32:03Travis McElroy?

  Um, I don't love the undercurrents of that song.

• 32:06Griffin McElroy?

  The undercurrents of the song are obviously not ideal, but. Foster your people.

• 32:11Travis McElroy?

  Hmm, foster your people is good.

• 32:14Griffin McElroy?

  And it has a theme song already.

• 32:16Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, but once again, the theme of the song maybe is. Not something we want to enjoy.

• 32:23Travis McElroy?

  I don't know that that's your best.

• 32:25Griffin McElroy?

  All the little kids with.

• 32:27Travis McElroy?

  That's not it.

• 32:29Travis McElroy?

  Twenty honey sticks.

  Back to business.

  No, I'm not even close.

• 32:39Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty funny flicks, the hangover trilogy available on Netflix for a limited time.

• 32:48Griffin McElroy?

  That rhyme, don't you, you pervert? Nasty fucking boy.

• 32:52Travis McElroy?

  Sweaty than stuntie flicks.

• 32:54Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 32:55Travis McElroy?

  It's true. Flicks, I will say this, I think, I, I don't think there's a world in which. Stuntie flicks should take it in funny flicks.

• 33:02Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, no, I agree.

• 33:04Travis McElroy?

  Cause there's so many great laughs in the history of cinema.

• 33:07Griffin McElroy?

  It was stunts and flicks, so you would probably know that if you had your own document that you had written.

• 33:11Travis McElroy?

  I, I was doing all the tech for the other stuff.

• 33:14Griffin McElroy?

  That's true. That's a good point.

  Which kind of fit. Hey Griffin, real quick, just type out twenty fiddlesticks forgovness within, if you could, because I'm thinking that.

  Forgovness within.

• 33:54Griffin McElroy?

  For goodness within is cool. It's gonna be hell for every poster designer, every website that talks about the theme. Yes, when the New York Times covers it. Yeah, I like twenty fiddlesticks a lot. Twenty fiddlesticks is just like, what is, what is a fiddlestick? I know we say it when we fuck up. I assume it's what you play a fiddle with. Should we make sure that fiddlesticks isn't some like terrible shit? Dog whistle? Sounds like terrible thing if you hear fiddlesticks. You guys look that up real quick. Let me check my list. Yeah, check your list, Justin. J D Vance calls his weeners fiddlestick. It's in here. It's a character in League of Legends.

• 34:39Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty Huff and Vixx. Clear it up. Ooh, twenty Huff and Vixx is nice because there could be a branding partnership there. I don't think they wanna be thinking about people Huffing it. I don't think they like Huffing the product. But it does. Clear it out? Yeah, clear it up. Clear it up. Dry it out, clear it up. Dry it out? Open it up. Oh, dry it out, open it up. Dry it out. Just like Ben Shapiro. What? Oh, yeah. Dry it out, open it up. I hate, I don't, Justin ruined it for me with that. Yeah. Uh, twenty Huffy tricks. Check this shit. Ooh. Not, check this shit. That's not good, but BMX adventures. Twenty Huffy tricks is one that I.

• 35:24Griffin McElroy?

  BMX adventures? BMX adventures? Yeah, that would be cool. Another, oh, you're separating co-branding opportunities. That's smart. That's, looks the same. Yeah. Twenty Huffy Tricks. Tricks. Yeah. BMX adventure. Gleam the cube. BMX. No, Gleam the Cube's. Is Gleam the Cube skateboarding or bicycling? Gleam the Cube? That sounds like some, I don't know, it sounds like Stranger Things to me. I don't know. Sounds like something out of Stranger Things. Oh, man, we could. Twenty, I mean twenty twenty, watch Netflix. Stranger Things, Stranger Things. Out now. Twenty. It's all done. It's the new homo Batman.

• 36:46Griffin McElroy?

  That's a good one. I just think we could really help Netflix with this. Yeah, sure.

• 36:52Griffin McElroy?

  At Netflix. I mean, this is a reminder. That's a reminder, yeah.

• 36:57Griffin McElroy?

  Alright. The no great TV. That was really important punctuation. Yeah. I think there's too big of a chance. Oh, you know. Get left out. You know, folks are gonna like, come up to those signs and tag them. Spubby. Spubby people are gonna have a field day with Photoshop on that one. Twenty.

• 37:15Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty, I had twenty Jump the Cricks, a boy's wilderness adventure. But that's not branded. No.

• 37:24Griffin McElroy?

  Oh, okay. Check this one out. A lot of ours are about doing stuff for yourself, like Get Right With Christ, Surf the Vibe. Yeah. A lot of that is about, what if this year was about taking time and energy to help someone else achieve just one dream, one goal. Twenty Got Your Six, Become the Wind. Hmm. Like you're the wind, like you can be the wind beneath some, the subtitle's not quite there yet. The wind beneath. But I think twenty, uh, Got Your Six, like, I've got your back, something about like. Twenty. Get their back. But twenty Got Your Six, Got Your Back? I'm brainstorming. I'm trying to get there, Griffin.

• 38:07Griffin McElroy?

  I'm not sure. It feels like too militaristic for our vibe. It started for World War I Combat Pilots, and I'm pretty sure back then, we were still like, cool with what they were doing. We liked it. Yeah. I wouldn't use. Back then, we knew what it was about. If there was any new shit, if there was like any new slang, I don't know that I'd wanna drop the app, but like, World War I Combat Pilots? I don't know. Can I, can I ask about one that I, now that we're talking about co-branding, what do you think about Twenty Crunchy Tricks? Bring back balls.

• 38:39Travis McElroy?

  I like the ball shapes better and they used to be balls originally and then they were fruit shapes for a really long time and then they brought back the ball shapes and I rejoice because it's original but then people wanted the fruit shapes of tricks back.

• 38:52Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty what what tricks?

• 38:54Travis McElroy?

  Twenty crunchy tricks bring back balls. This is a year that attainable goal. I'm just gonna ask General Mills to change from the fruit shapes.

• 39:03Griffin McElroy?

  You think that's attainable? You, I think you've, I think you've forgotten the face of your father a little bit bud.

• 39:08Travis McElroy?

  I'm not saying that, I don't mean attainable in the sense that I can attain it. I mean attainable in the sense that it is, it is possible. It's within the realm of possibility.

• 39:15Travis McElroy?

  Could we work like artificial flavors and colors in there too? Because I miss those a lot.

• 39:21Travis McElroy?

  Those are back. Those were gone for a while, but now they're back and they're like fully neon. Like nobody, it's like a different era.

• 39:28Griffin McElroy?

  I mean, hmm. I don't have, I don't have a lot of branded ones.

• 39:32Travis McElroy?

  Twenty Jiminy Glicks.

• 39:34Travis McElroy?

  Wow, you just wrote that down.

• 39:49Travis McElroy?

  Oh, twenty, twenty, get the quicks, get the kicks.

• 39:53Griffin McElroy?

  To the quicks. Cut the baloney. That does, but it sounds like the chocolate, the chocolate milk brand just started selling baloney.

• 40:02Travis McElroy?

  You gotta stop with the baloney man.

• 40:04Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, that's, that's, that's.

• 40:06Travis McElroy?

  That's one, that's maybe the worst year theme that I've ever seen written.

• 40:12Travis McElroy?

  In terms of just viability and overall quality.

• 40:15Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, yeah, I agree. Twenty like, twenty Lang bricks, build back better.

  Twenty no new tricks. Old dogs.

• 45:34Griffin McElroy?

  Dude, walk me through it.

• 45:35Travis McElroy?

  You can't teach an old dog new tricks.

• 45:38Griffin McElroy?

  Okay, that is always said in a way that feels kind of aspirational for the dog, though, like you're challenging.

• 45:43Travis McElroy?

  This one, this one is a, this one is a waste. This one is low press. This one is low pressure. We are old dogs, no new tricks.

• 45:50Travis McElroy?

  I've always thought of, uh, you can't teach an old dog new tricks as a way to excuse maybe outdated.

• 45:57Griffin McElroy?

  So this is a new thing.

• 45:58Travis McElroy?

  Language and terminology and behaviors.

• 46:00Griffin McElroy?

  Finally taking it back. Agreed. Twenty, can I? Let's have a.

  No, I think it's good for us to go. I think it's.

• 46:49Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty Treats and Tricks Halloween all year? Have you not seen the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse episode where they make a wish and it's Christmas every day? And then it starts to kinda suck shit that it's Christmas every day?

• 47:00Travis McElroy?

  Well, that's because they repeat Chris, they repeats every day. I'm saying Halloween all year, just as a lifestyle, not necessarily repeating the same actions every day.

• 47:09Griffin McElroy?

  No, it's not like a Groundhog Day situation. It's that they are doing different Christmas shit every day. And by the end of it, they're like, this sucks, we wish it would go back to normal. And that was the only other wish Santa Claus could grant them, and he does. And everything goes back to normal. And it turns out good, but they were really bummed out when it was Christmas every day.

• 47:25Travis McElroy?

  I know lots of people who live a Halloween lifestyle year round, and they seem to like that.

• 47:30Griffin McElroy?

  Okay, but I don't think it's for everyone. I would hate, I would hate that.

• 47:33Travis McElroy?

  Hmm.

• 47:34Griffin McElroy?

  I would hate that. I would, I would be so scared. I- Do I have to get costumes for my kids every day?

  No, trick or treat all day.

  Yeah.

• 47:46Travis McElroy?

  Can we please get to that?

• 47:47Griffin McElroy?

  I do, I still don't think there's a keyboard shortcut for strike through.

• 47:51Travis McElroy?

  I thought it was Ctrl K, is it not?

• 47:53Griffin McElroy?

  Is that it? I'm, you're about to blow my shit apart, right? Nope.

• 48:39Travis McElroy?

  He's saying-

• 48:39Travis McElroy?

  It says right there, celebrating the beauty of America's greatest road. It's not the greatest song-

• 48:45Griffin McElroy?

  But it also says get your kicks.

• 49:08Travis McElroy?

  I wouldn't say I'm cool with tick-borne illness. I just don't know. I think that this is definitely a good thing you remind people of, but not a life lesson.

• 49:16Travis McElroy?

  Is there a tick? Is there anything we could do with the tick to get another season? Or just get bedridden?

  Twenty dark magics. I, what I like about bag of tricks, this idea of a- as an actionable thing of just like have some stuff ready to go that you can pop up to be like ta-da. I'm not saying become a magician or something like that, but become, it's more of a celebration of multidisciplinary growth.

• 53:57Travis McElroy?

  Hmm.

  And maybe a celebration of multidisciplinary. No fucking way, dude. Crush that shit, Gus. Growth, damn it.

  Come get us.

• 55:25Travis McElroy?

  Come get us.

• 55:26Griffin McElroy?

  They won't fire us. Something has to stop us. We can't get fired. Something will bring us down. I think doing merch with twenty pickle ricks.

• 55:36Travis McElroy?

  Twenty ricks. Who are they? Where did they come from?

• 55:38Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, okay.

• 55:39Travis McElroy?

  I do think it's an evocative concept, though.

  Yeah.

• 55:42Travis McElroy?

  Twenty boudoir pics for your lover.

• 55:44Travis McElroy?

  I wanna get rid of punching dicks. That's like. It's like such an invitation to lawsuit city. I really don't wanna.

• 55:51Travis McElroy?

  No, Justin, it's fist city.

• 55:53Travis McElroy?

  Ah, yes, that's true. It's recently been renamed to lawsuit city.

• 55:56Griffin McElroy?

  Oh, man. Is it the grabbing you don't like? Cause there's other things you can do with a fist.

• 56:00Travis McElroy?

  No one even said grabbing, Griffin.

• 56:02Griffin McElroy?

  Grabbing dicks.

• 56:03Travis McElroy?

  Are we getting rid of fist and dicks and big tits Jug City Showdown?

• 56:53Travis McElroy?

  I don't wanna get rid of beagles.

  I hey, can I tell you one of my reasons why I don't wanna use it is cuz I I feel uncomfortable saying it.

• 57:03Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, okay.

• 57:04Griffin McElroy?

  But I thought it was funny to do once.

• 57:07Travis McElroy?

  Go ahead and mark it.

• 57:07Griffin McElroy?

  It may not even been funny to do once, but I definitely don't wanna do it a million times. Twenty Stevie Nicks and Moonlight Blessing. Um, that's gonna seem like we're making fun of it.

• 58:11Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty crunchy mix granola gra- yesa.

• 58:14Travis McElroy?

  You didn't make the no capital. I think that would help.

• 58:17Travis McElroy?

  Or at least, uh, italicized or something.

• 58:19Travis McElroy?

  Something.

• 58:21Griffin McElroy?

  Granola. Gra- yesa.

• 58:24Travis McElroy?

  Okay. Okay, now you can cut it.

  Twenty crunchy mix Crustucci.

• 58:32Travis McElroy?

  Now what if you get, now what if you cut? What about this?

  What do you think about this? Twenty crunchy mix granola Crustucci.

  Mmm.

  Christ the Uchi on the.

• 59:16Travis McElroy?

  Um, I think we can go ahead and cut twenty crunchy mixed granola Christucci.

• 59:21Griffin McElroy?

  Okay. Twenty under bricks, cobblestone ahoy.

• 59:25Griffin McElroy?

  There's, okay, there's something I like about this. And it is something that I think I'm interested in as a concept for actionable advice to people, which is like, we've all spent so much time digging around in the dirt in Minecraft. That it makes me think, why, but if I have to plant a plant outside? No way. Why am I like that? When I could get a shovel and I could see what's happening down there. And I think there's something cool. It's like, maybe this is the year where you see what's happening down there.

• 59:59Travis McElroy?

  Hmm, but you don't have a theme. You like, thematically, you like that idea.

• 1:00:03Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty under bricks, cobblestone ahoy.

• 1:00:06Travis McElroy?

  Maybe it's not cobblestone.

• 1:00:07Travis McElroy?

  Maybe it's hidden past.

• 1:00:09Travis McElroy?

  Hidden paths.

• 1:00:10Griffin McElroy?

  Dig up the past.

• 1:00:11Travis McElroy?

  Dig up the paths.

  Yeah, there we go.

• 1:00:20Travis McElroy?

  Dig up the pasts.

• 1:00:23Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty under bricks.

• 1:00:24Travis McElroy?

  We have a new one that's good. Twenty under bricks, dig up the paths.

• 1:00:28Griffin McElroy?

  I mean, I'm into it. It may just be because I'm pushing forty, but dig up the pasts. Could be an interesting project for the year.

• 1:00:35Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:00:36Travis McElroy?

  Oh, yeah. Paths, dig up the path. What about twenty chucking bricks, smash it?

• 1:00:40Griffin McElroy?

  I don't want anybody, I don't want more people to be chucking bricks.

• 1:00:44Travis McElroy?

  Than twenty laying bricks, strong foundation.

• 1:00:47Griffin McElroy?

  I said twenty laying bricks, build back better and Justin made fun of me.

• 1:00:51Travis McElroy?

  Well, build back better sucks. It almost worked, it almost worked.

• 1:00:55Travis McElroy?

  But strong foundations.

• 1:00:57Travis McElroy?

  Twenty Robin Thicke blurred lines.

• 1:00:59Griffin McElroy?

  Hmm, no.

• 1:01:00Travis McElroy?

  He's writing it.

• 1:01:01Travis McElroy?

  Second chances.

• 1:01:03Travis McElroy?

  Put him in the.

• 1:01:03Travis McElroy?

  Flirt lines.

• 1:01:04Travis McElroy?

  Second chances, okay. Put it, no, that goes in the co-branded pile. If Robin Thicke get at us, you could, you could pay us for blurred line second chances.

• 1:01:14Travis McElroy?

  No.

• 1:01:16Travis McElroy?

  That's Alan Thicke.

• 1:01:17Travis McElroy?

  That's Alan Thicke. We could do both. You can do twenty Alan Thicke growing pains.

• 1:01:22Griffin McElroy?

  I really didn't do that on purpose.

• 1:01:24Travis McElroy?

  I know, but they're basically best friends.

• 1:01:26Travis McElroy?

  Well, one of them is past.

• 1:01:29Griffin McElroy?

  What's the other guy's name? Robin Thicke.

• 1:01:30Travis McElroy?

  Robin Thicke. No, they're both thick singular.

• 1:01:34Griffin McElroy?

  Second chances?

• 1:01:35Travis McElroy?

  Yeah. No, blurred line second chances.

• 1:01:40Griffin McElroy?

  Ah, yeah. I'm not sure I want to afford him a second chance.

• 1:01:43Travis McElroy?

  It should be thick.

• 1:01:44Travis McElroy?

  Maybe third chances.

• 1:01:46Travis McElroy?

  It would be sick. It would be awesome.

• 1:01:48Travis McElroy?

  Well, third line, blurred lines, third chances, third lines.

• 1:01:52Griffin McElroy?

  Third lines? That's cool. He sounds, he sounds like he's on a hockey team at that point. I'd love to get hockey in there.

• 1:01:58Travis McElroy?

  Is there something with sticks?

• 1:01:59Griffin McElroy?

  Sticks, sticks. Sticks, twenty, twenty hockey sticks.

• 1:02:03Travis McElroy?

  You can do better than that.

• 1:02:04Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty hockey sticks. Don't cuss. But it's like.

• 1:02:06Travis McElroy?

  Oh, like double, mm.

• 1:02:08Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty hockey. W twenty, twenty hockey sticks. That's like, well, it could be twenty hockey sticks. Uuuu. And it's like twenty L's in a row.

• 1:02:18Travis McElroy?

  Oh.

• 1:02:19Griffin McElroy?

  The same function that it fills when you say it to not cuss in front of a child. You could say, uuuu.

• 1:02:26Travis McElroy?

  Twenty wizard sticks, the power of the staff.

• 1:02:29Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty wizard sticks.

• 1:02:31Travis McElroy?

  Power of the staff. Power of the, twenty wizard sticks.

  Twenty wizard sticks. Learn the game or die.

• 1:02:38Travis McElroy?

  Learn the game.

• 1:02:39Travis McElroy?

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:02:41Griffin McElroy?

  Die. Haven't we, I was fungal or the only sort of magical wizardly one? Have we done a wizardly one before?

• 1:02:49Travis McElroy?

  No.

• 1:02:51Griffin McElroy?

  Wizard sticks is cool. I like.

• 1:02:53Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, wizard sticks kind of rules.

• 1:02:55Travis McElroy?

  Learn the game or die.

• 1:02:57Travis McElroy?

  Now, where does that part come from?

• 1:02:58Travis McElroy?

  Learn the game of die.

• 1:02:59Travis McElroy?

  Why is it learn the game or die?

• 1:03:01Travis McElroy?

  Because I think wizard sticks is like, I ima- when you said wizard sticks, I imagined like, there was a ring.

• 1:03:08Travis McElroy?

  Uh huh.

• 1:03:09Travis McElroy?

  The wizard had, and he in his tower, and the only way he would give it to you is if you played him at wizard sticks.

• 1:03:15Travis McElroy?

  Oh, it's a challenge.

• 1:03:17Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:03:17Griffin McElroy?

  Oh, can we do?

• 1:03:18Travis McElroy?

  You beat me at one game of wizard sticks and you can have the dublo.

• 1:03:23Travis McElroy?

  Challenge.

• 1:03:23Griffin McElroy?

  Can we spell it like, like a cool way? Twenty wizard sticks.

• 1:03:28Travis McElroy?

  Oh, yeah. Well, maybe not three X's.

• 1:03:32Travis McElroy?

  Hmm, maybe a Z at the end.

• 1:03:35Griffin McElroy?

  Sticks. But that it's not called twenty twenty six.

• 1:03:39Travis McElroy?

  Oh, that's true.

• 1:03:40Travis McElroy?

  Twenty wizard sticks.

• 1:03:41Griffin McElroy?

  Learn the game or die is cool. Alright, uh, twenty river sticks, the souls must flow. That's.

• 1:03:46Travis McElroy?

  There you use die in wizard sticks. That's why it also it works two ways.

• 1:03:53Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty funky sticks out to the boneyard is cool. Twenty twenty six seven is a check I am not willing to cash.

• 1:04:03Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty see what sticks ball with the ball. This was one we were all pretty excited about.

• 1:04:08Travis McElroy?

  I feel like the maybe the subtitle is a placeholder on that one.

• 1:04:12Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, just see what sticks. Well, we could leave it as a placeholder all year to see what sticks.

• 1:04:18Griffin McElroy?

  That's not bad, actually, conceptually. Twenty see what sticks. No, we can't. I don't want to do. I don't want to do this all year.

• 1:04:25Travis McElroy?

  I know. That's very fair.

• 1:04:27Griffin McElroy?

  That thought made me so tired.

• 1:04:28Travis McElroy?

  I want to cut twenty pumped up kicks foster your people unless you want to move it down to the.

• 1:04:32Griffin McElroy?

  Nah, that song sucks.

• 1:04:34Travis McElroy?

  Okay.

• 1:04:34Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks for goodness with him.

• 1:04:44Travis McElroy?

  That one should get an asterisk. I like that one.

• 1:04:47Griffin McElroy?

  Fiddlesticks is just that word. It feels so powerful and it's under you. I never say fiddlesticks. And so it feels like we have the opportunity to own something truly special.

• 1:05:00Travis McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks. It's all spilled milk.

• 1:05:03Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:05:03Travis McElroy?

  Oh, for goodness with it.

  Twenty got your six. I want to try to to.

• 1:05:17Griffin McElroy?

  See if there's anything there.

• 1:05:19Travis McElroy?

  No, it's what bothers me about it is the. The guy or six thing has this vibe to me of like.

• 1:05:25Griffin McElroy?

  SWAT dude.

• 1:05:27Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, it's like not not not SWAT dudes, but dudes who like want like. Who have like militaristic energy as like a way to like pump themselves up.

• 1:05:35Griffin McElroy?

  The dudes at the airsoft yard who are like. Super intense, like super duper intense about everything.

• 1:05:41Travis McElroy?

  A little bit intense to me.

• 1:05:43Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, I got you. I I liked, I think I liked all of that, like, sort of, sky.

• 1:05:48Travis McElroy?

  Sure.

  A plane, a plane cuts us, cuts a

• 1:05:52Travis McElroy?

  That's really good.

  Crosses blue cerulean expanse. A single cloud drifts by and we're on the ground watching with our little, uh, straw hats.

• 1:06:04Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, but Gaius X is still in there.

• 1:06:07Griffin McElroy?

  Let's, I think that's better than twenty funky sticks out to the boneyard, although.

• 1:06:56Griffin McElroy?

  Do you really?

• 1:06:57Travis McElroy?

  Dude, twenty funky sticks out to the boneyard should go into co-branded opportunities. I would love to work with Sticks on this.

• 1:07:02Travis McElroy?

  Oh, my God, are you getting guests?

• 1:07:05Travis McElroy?

  This is a good.

  It's, it's, it's finding.

  It's finding the right context though, cuz I feel the same way about like mix.

  Useful magic tricks.

• 1:07:56Travis McElroy?

  I wanna say that twenty wizard sticks feels like one that we like that no one would. You know, doesn't it feel like we would, we could talk ourselves into getting pretty excited about the idea of wizard sticks?

• 1:08:09Griffin McElroy?

  For sure, dude. I feel like.

• 1:08:11Travis McElroy?

  I think we. We would be like, we'd have a plan to sell them.

• 1:08:14Griffin McElroy?

  We earned twenty fungal lore, if we did twenty wizard sticks, learn the game or die, it's gonna feel like to everyone else, we're just chasing the high of fungal. Like, it feels like we're just trying to capture that again, and it has to be authentic.

• 1:08:25Travis McElroy?

  Does it feel better if it's twenty wizard tricks?

• 1:08:30Griffin McElroy?

  I don't think a wizard would do tricks.

• 1:08:31Travis McElroy?

  I feel like this is too much of an overlap between the, I don't want the nerds that listen to Taz to start listening to my brother, my brother and me, cuz they think it's gonna be about wizards and elves and all that garbage.

• 1:08:42Travis McElroy?

  Now, I do wanna go back to, you didn't put it on the list, bro, but twenty hit the bricks.

• 1:08:48Travis McElroy?

  You didn't include twenty hit the bricks.

• 1:08:49Griffin McElroy?

  You're right. Well, it's because my motivation for it was.

• 1:08:54Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:08:54Travis McElroy?

  It's just.

• 1:08:57Travis McElroy?

  You can't do hit the bricks and hit the roads.

• 1:09:00Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:09:01Travis McElroy?

  The bricks hit the road, hit the gas, hit the brakes at the road.

• 1:09:09Travis McElroy?

  Hit the brakes.

• 1:09:10Griffin McElroy?

  Hit the, hit the gas, hit the gas, the road and the brakes.

• 1:09:13Travis McElroy?

  Jack it off, Jack.

• 1:09:15Griffin McElroy?

  Jack off, Jack.

• 1:09:16Travis McElroy?

  No, head to Fist City, Jug Town.

• 1:09:19Griffin McElroy?

  Hit the bricks, Jug Town.

• 1:09:21Travis McElroy?

  Punch the jug, big boy.

• 1:09:23Griffin McElroy?

  Town, hit the bricks, this is a Cobra bar.

• 1:09:27Travis McElroy?

  Maybe they want you over in.

• 1:09:28Travis McElroy?

  Are you trying to go to Fist City?

• 1:09:29Griffin McElroy?

  Alright.

• 1:09:30Travis McElroy?

  No?

• 1:09:30Griffin McElroy?

  You don't look like you're dressed for Fist City, but you found yourself in Jug Town, a Cobra bar.

• 1:09:35Travis McElroy?

  Twenty hit the bricks, hit the road is out.

• 1:09:37Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty hit the bricks. Cobras only, Jug Town.

• 1:09:45Travis McElroy?

  Mm-hmm, yeah.

• 1:09:48Travis McElroy?

  Lost Cobra's only Jug Town.

• 1:09:52Griffin McElroy?

  There we go.

• 1:09:52Travis McElroy?

  Now you found it. Now you can strike through with confidence.

• 1:09:59Travis McElroy?

  Okay, twenty wizard sticks, learn the game or die should be cut now before I regret.

• 1:10:04Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, we're gonna come back to it too hard.

• 1:10:06Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:10:06Travis McElroy?

  Twenty funky legs, make it talk.

• 1:10:08Travis McElroy?

  Had to cut it in secret before we could pay attention. Twenty funky legs, make it talk is too on the nose, I think.

• 1:10:15Griffin McElroy?

  Make it talk is just too.

• 1:10:17Travis McElroy?

  Make it talk.

• 1:10:18Griffin McElroy?

  Too aggressive. And then twenty hit the bricks, get lost Cobra's only Jug Town.

• 1:10:22Travis McElroy?

  Go back to, is this all, can you scroll? Is there more above the scroll?

• 1:10:26Griffin McElroy?

  I think, yeah.

• 1:10:28Travis McElroy?

  Okay. Twenty stunts and flicks.

• 1:10:31Griffin McElroy?

  There's a lot cut out here.

• 1:10:31Travis McElroy?

  Hooray for Hollywood.

• 1:10:33Griffin McElroy?

  I'm gonna, I'm gonna make these smaller.

• 1:10:35Travis McElroy?

  Okay.

• 1:10:35Travis McElroy?

  Twenty, what about twenty classic flicks?

• 1:10:38Griffin McElroy?

  I don't give a shit about classic movies.

• 1:10:40Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, who's gonna listen to us about that?

• 1:10:43Travis McElroy?

  Indie flick, twenty indie flicks. Okay, I'm trying.

• 1:10:49Travis McElroy?

  Twenty pickle rigs, a celebration of multi-disciplinary.

• 1:10:58Travis McElroy?

  Twenty pickle rigs, a celebration of multi-disciplinary growth because we used to not do Rick and Morty and now we do.

• 1:11:05Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 1:11:06Travis McElroy?

  So you're saying a mix and match, we take twenty bag of tricks out and we put it a celebration of multi-

• 1:11:11Travis McElroy?

  Well, what I love is twenty pickle rigs, any of these subtitles would truly work for COVID-19.

• 1:11:16Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:11:17Travis McElroy?

  Twenty under bricks, dig up the pasts. Um, I want tips and tricks cut because tips and tricks is an idiom. And I feel like I don't wanna like.

• 1:11:30Griffin McElroy?

  It's easy.

• 1:11:30Travis McElroy?

  Boost, yes, it's just an easy idiom. Stunts and flicks, honey sticks, undermix, like that's, we're in the neighborhood.

• 1:11:38Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, those are things are made down.

• 1:11:40Travis McElroy?

  Twenty bag of tricks. I wanna get rid of twenty honey sticks.

• 1:11:44Griffin McElroy?

  I don't think it's gonna win, and I don't think you guys do either.

• 1:11:46Travis McElroy?

  No.

• 1:11:47Griffin McElroy?

  We, it's twenty, we're more than halfway through it, we're more than halfway through this decade.

• 1:11:52Travis McElroy?

  Let's come back to it.

• 1:11:52Griffin McElroy?

  I think we can do one honey one at some point. I don't know that we wanna burn it on a year where there's this much other. Knowing how rough twenty twenty-five was, I would've gone for honey stuff.

• 1:12:03Travis McElroy?

  Let's come back to it.

• 1:12:04Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, we can come back to it.

• 1:12:05Griffin McElroy?

  Alright, we'll come back to it. Twenty Under Mix, Love It Lump, I'm getting rid of some, I hate seeing it there.

• 1:12:09Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:12:10Griffin McElroy?

  Ruining it.

• 1:12:10Travis McElroy?

  Twenty Under Mix, Love It Lumpy.

• 1:12:12Griffin McElroy?

  Love It Lumpy.

• 1:12:13Travis McElroy?

  I, ah, I don't know. I think some Love It Lumpy is.

• 1:12:17Travis McElroy?

  Love It Lumpy, there's, there's like, almost such a weird no connotation to it, that my brain applies a dirty connotation.

• 1:12:26Griffin McElroy?

  Okay.

• 1:12:27Travis McElroy?

  Yeah. Lumpy Lovin' would be better.

• 1:12:29Griffin McElroy?

  Lumpy Lovin'.

• 1:12:30Travis McElroy?

  Lumpy Lovin's bad. Don't ruin it. Twenty Under Mix, Love It Lumpy, okay. Twenty Bag of Tricks, I don't like Twenty Bag of Tricks. I, for the same reason that I don't like Tips and Tricks.

• 1:12:41Griffin McElroy?

  Sure do.

• 1:12:41Travis McElroy?

  It just feels like, but do leave for Twenty Pickle Ricks.

• 1:12:44Griffin McElroy?

  Mm-hmm.

• 1:12:45Travis McElroy?

  A celebration of.

• 1:12:47Griffin McElroy?

  That's not gonna win, but there's something there.

• 1:12:49Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:12:49Griffin McElroy?

  And I'm not ready to.

• 1:12:50Travis McElroy?

  I do also kinda like Twenty Pickle Ricks, come and claim them. Because that's, implies we have Twenty Pickle Ricks.

• 1:12:56Griffin McElroy?

  But that, that's just, god, why do I keep doing that? That's just for us. The audience can't use that at all. I don't want, what are we telling them to do?

• 1:13:03Travis McElroy?

  To see what happens.

• 1:13:05Travis McElroy?

  See What Sticks feels very good to me. It feels like it's a little riskier, right? Because it's a year about, we're gonna try things, right? And the things might not work, we're gonna see what sticks. And everybody's gonna do that, you know? Is that we're not as confident inherently, because we gotta see what sticks.

• 1:13:24Travis McElroy?

  You, can you shrink those other Struck Through ones? And also, we might, it might be time, I think we've chewed on it for a long time, but it might be time to say goodbye to Get Lost Cobra's Only Jug Town.

• 1:13:37Griffin McElroy?

  Dude, can I tell you something? The rate at which we are going through those, I'm already bored of the joke I laughed at five minutes ago. I am fully ready to get rid of Twenty Hit the Bricks, Get Lost Cobra's Only Jug Town.

• 1:13:47Travis McElroy?

  That's, yeah, I mean.

• 1:13:49Griffin McElroy?

  It's play, dude.

• 1:13:50Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:13:51Griffin McElroy?

  God damn it. We've got some really good ones here.

• 1:13:56Griffin McElroy?

  Can we return to twenty under bricks, dig up the pasts? I think I like under bricks.

• 1:14:00Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, under bricks. Is there something like catacombs?

• 1:14:03Travis McElroy?

  Oh, dig up the bones. Bones below roads, roads above bones.

• 1:14:07Griffin McElroy?

  Oh, roads above bones.

• 1:14:09Travis McElroy?

  Casco of Monteado.

• 1:14:11Travis McElroy?

  Twenty under bricks.

• 1:14:13Griffin McElroy?

  Bury your friends.

• 1:14:14Travis McElroy?

  Stones above bones.

• 1:14:15Griffin McElroy?

  Stones above bones.

• 1:14:17Travis McElroy?

  Oh, what about like hidden message? Like it's a dead drop? You know, like, oh, I would hide the message under a brick and you would know which brick to check to get the message.

• 1:14:27Griffin McElroy?

  Hmm, twenty under bricks.

• 1:14:29Travis McElroy?

  Twenty under bricks.

• 1:14:32Griffin McElroy?

  There's, I mean, there could be anything under there.

• 1:14:35Travis McElroy?

  The fact that there's not currently though, makes me feel like there just isn't.

• 1:14:40Travis McElroy?

  What do you mean? Layers of the past?

• 1:14:41Travis McElroy?

  The feel, I feel like it would have come to us.

• 1:14:44Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, twenty under bricks. Under bricks is just not it. I don't.

• 1:14:47Travis McElroy?

  Under bricks is just not powerful.

• 1:14:49Griffin McElroy?

  It's just not powerful enough. I'm really sorry. I do like it. I like, I wanna, I wouldn't mind having a sort of Goonies year.

• 1:14:54Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:14:54Griffin McElroy?

  Where it's like, you know, twenty jump the cricks, a boy's wilderness adventure, but good.

• 1:14:59Travis McElroy?

  Twenty jump the cricks, a boy's wilderness.

• 1:15:01Griffin McElroy?

  Said that one already.

• 1:15:02Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, he said that one already.

• 1:15:03Travis McElroy?

  It's getting better though.

• 1:15:05Griffin McElroy?

  So that leaves us with six.

• 1:15:07Travis McElroy?

  Why do they have to be gendered? I think that's what killed it.

• 1:15:09Travis McElroy?

  Hmm.

• 1:15:10Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, maybe.

• 1:15:10Travis McElroy?

  So it's something about slice hicks we can put in there?

• 1:15:13Travis McElroy?

  I, you know, I thought about trying to get slice.

• 1:15:14Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty, twenty cool slice hicks.

• 1:15:15Travis McElroy?

  Good dude.

• 1:15:16Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty autumn hicks.

• 1:15:17Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, twenty autumn hicks.

• 1:15:18Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty autumn hicks.

• 1:15:19Travis McElroy?

  Maybe if we went with Matthew, but you didn't go back.

• 1:15:21Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:15:22Griffin McElroy?

  Matty.

• 1:15:23Travis McElroy?

  But autumn and twenties like.

• 1:15:25Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:15:25Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:15:25Travis McElroy?

  They're kissing cousins. Um, the twenty stunts and flicks, hooray for Hollywood. Uh, hooray for Hollywood isn't specific enough to the energy that is trying to be conveyed. If it is stunts and flicks, it ain't hooray for Hollywood also. It needs something better at the back end.

• 1:15:41Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:15:42Travis McElroy?

  It's a fatter ass.

• 1:15:44Travis McElroy?

  Hmm, yes. Well said, sir.

• 1:15:49Travis McElroy?

  Well said.

• 1:15:50Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty stunts and flicks, welcome to ass city.

• 1:15:54Travis McElroy?

  I was just for a fat ass justice.

• 1:15:57Griffin McElroy?

  You want fat asses? We got you.

• 1:16:00Travis McElroy?

  Here's your fat ass.

• 1:16:01Griffin McElroy?

  What about twenty butts and flicks? Time to return to the theater. It's safe to return.

• 1:16:05Travis McElroy?

  Oh, I thought it was a celebration of seeing butts in movies.

• 1:16:08Griffin McElroy?

  No, no, this is saying get your butts in the theaters back to see. I don't want to tell people to do that. I don't want to tell.

• 1:16:16Travis McElroy?

  No, I don't either.

• 1:16:17Travis McElroy?

  And butts and flicks, now butts and flicks, if you want to put that as a Mr. Skin thing, that that could maybe be a cross promotional thing. I don't know.

• 1:16:24Griffin McElroy?

  I bet they have a tourist.

• 1:16:25Travis McElroy?

  Twenty grown folks.

• 1:16:27Griffin McElroy?

  I bet they got a tab.

• 1:16:28Travis McElroy?

  If you called Mr. Skin and they were like, oh, my gosh, the videos of butts too. God, that's good. We were only doing boobs the whole time. Crap.

• 1:16:37Griffin McElroy?

  Shoot, dude.

• 1:16:38Travis McElroy?

  Shoot, we gotta go. We returned all those movies.

• 1:16:40Griffin McElroy?

  We gotta watch all those GD movies again.

• 1:16:43Travis McElroy?

  Twenty, twenty stunts and flicks.

• 1:16:47Griffin McElroy?

  Uh.

• 1:16:48Travis McElroy?

  Is there a general celebration of Hollywood that can replace stunts?

• 1:16:54Travis McElroy?

  Like there, uh.

• 1:16:56Griffin McElroy?

  I like it. I like stunts. I like stunts. I like stunt people. I love the craft. I love the work. I think it's all cool. I don't think I can do a year of it.

• 1:17:06Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 1:17:08Travis McElroy?

  Twenty stunts and flicks. Yeah, I, yeah.

• 1:17:10Travis McElroy?

  Twenty honey sticks.

• 1:17:12Griffin McElroy?

  All right, can I just say? I'm gonna, can I set a timer on my phone and we?

• 1:17:18Travis McElroy?

  For when it's like, it's, once it's done, if we don't have a better name, it's definitely twenty honey sticks.

• 1:17:22Griffin McElroy?

  No, no, I'm saying like, we get, if it's not twenty honey sticks. I'm just saying, let's, let's see through twenty honey sticks.

• 1:17:30Travis McElroy?

  Twenty honey sticks is the one that we keep coming back to.

• 1:17:32Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, it's the one that I think has the most legs and I could see it being very actionable.

• 1:17:37Travis McElroy?

  Circling back to twenty honey sticks back in business.

• 1:17:40Travis McElroy?

  Griffin, how strongly do you feel about it?

• 1:17:44Travis McElroy?

  Now, you've just written Tommy Buddy makes.

• 1:17:47Travis McElroy?

  Is that just to kind of?

• 1:17:50Travis McElroy?

  Bring your pals together.

• 1:17:52Travis McElroy?

  Is that a bad, is that a bad one that you're trying to get out of your system?

• 1:17:56Griffin McElroy?

  No, it's just if we're. If we can do that.

• 1:18:03Travis McElroy?

  Okay, I'm ready to, I'm ready to let it go here after.

• 1:18:05Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, we can cut twenty honey sticks.

• 1:18:08Griffin McElroy?

  I just don't think honey sticks.

• 1:18:09Travis McElroy?

  And listen, I don't actually want to hear you talk about it anymore, but you can cut it.

• 1:18:14Travis McElroy?

  Twenty under mix, love it lumpy is to me.

• 1:18:18Griffin McElroy?

  Tell me what it is.

• 1:18:19Travis McElroy?

  Love it lumpy is one of the, like, to me, it's like, I, as a baker, it speaks to me directly.

• 1:18:25Griffin McElroy?

  You love it lumpy.

• 1:18:26Travis McElroy?

  You didn't, I mean, like.

• 1:18:28Griffin McElroy?

  Cause you don't wanna overmix.

• 1:18:29Travis McElroy?

  You didn't mix it enough, but some love it lumpy.

• 1:18:31Griffin McElroy?

  That's true.

• 1:18:32Travis McElroy?

  That's why I thought some was better. That's why I was reading to me is twenty under mix. You know, some love it lumpy.

• 1:18:39Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah, no, there's something about it that's saying like, you fucked up, but it's cool, cause some people like that. Maybe we do a little swaperoo here, we do twenty fiddlesticks, love it lumpy. We're gonna have to explain that to pretty much everyone.

• 1:18:51Travis McElroy?

  Hmm.

• 1:18:51Griffin McElroy?

  That we talk to about it.

• 1:18:54Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, the, the, the explaining has not loomed large enough in my head over the past couple of years, and I am trying to like, bring that.

• 1:19:02Travis McElroy?

  I'm looking at forgiveness now with that in mind, in a way that I wasn't before.

• 1:19:06Travis McElroy?

  Do you wanna say forgiveness? I mean, I'm gonna continue to think it's funny, but you guys may not, and that's the important thing, cause you guys have to say it too.

• 1:19:16Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:19:17Travis McElroy?

  You need to cut some of the buddy mix, bring your paws together, cause we already cut the other one.

• 1:19:20Travis McElroy?

  Happy accidents, happy, uh.

• 1:19:24Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:19:25Travis McElroy?

  Fate had other plans.

• 1:19:29Travis McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks, unexpected.

• 1:19:32Griffin McElroy?

  Befriending failure.

• 1:19:35Travis McElroy?

  Ooh.

• 1:19:36Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:19:37Travis McElroy?

  Forgiveness, well then.

• 1:19:39Travis McElroy?

  Embracing imperfection.

• 1:19:42Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks failing forward. There's a, I, I don't even know if I like the alliteration there.

• 1:19:49Travis McElroy?

  But that kind of also a little bit embraces twenty see what sticks.

• 1:19:53Travis McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks fail for fun.

• 1:19:55Griffin McElroy?

  Fail for fun, fun fail.

• 1:19:59Travis McElroy?

  Just fail for fun.

• 1:20:00Travis McElroy?

  Lowering stakes.

• 1:20:01Griffin McElroy?

  All aboard the fail boat, twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:20:06Griffin McElroy?

  Epic fail.

• 1:20:08Travis McElroy?

  No.

• 1:20:08Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty, twenty fiddlesticks, epic fail.

• 1:20:11Travis McElroy?

  No, see, you took it from, you took it from, oh, we're there, and then you're like, and here's a dumb one.

• 1:20:19Travis McElroy?

  If we called it twenty pickle ricks, a celebration of multidisciplinary growth, I think legally, we're fine. I think legally, it's fine.

• 1:20:29Griffin McElroy?

  But that sounds, can I say, as funny as that is now, it sounds like those two things are gonna be related and that we are saying that Rick, Richard, human or pickle form, is a master of multidiscipline. I don't know that man from Adams Off Ox. I've not watched the program. I don't know that I wanna say he's a fucking jack of all trades. I simply don't know. Sit up.

• 1:20:55Travis McElroy?

  Now, I'll say maybe, maybe Pickle Rick's star has fallen a little bit.

• 1:20:59Griffin McElroy?

  That's fine.

• 1:21:00Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, man. He doesn't have the, you know what, go ahead. I, it's fine. If you wanna cut twenty pickle bricks.

• 1:21:04Griffin McElroy?

  I don't wanna cut twenty pickle. I know, I know, but maybe put it, can I suggest, can I just say, this is maybe a good.

• 1:21:10Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, that's a co-branding.

• 1:21:11Griffin McElroy?

  It's a co-branding opportunity. If they wanna get at us.

• 1:21:14Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, get at us. These, these, these are gonna. I would like us.

• 1:21:17Griffin McElroy?

  I'm just gonna get rid of the. Do you think if we started selling a Pickle Rick shirt, they would start with a cease and desist?

• 1:21:23Travis McElroy?

  I don't think we would get the courtesy of a cease and desist.

• 1:21:25Griffin McElroy?

  We could tastefully be like, fair enough.

• 1:21:27Travis McElroy?

  I think one of us would be arrested. I think that would imply, a cease and desist would imply that on their end, they thought we didn't know what we were doing was wrong.

• 1:21:36Travis McElroy?

  They are supposed to be so confused about the ownership of Pickle Rick.

• 1:21:38Griffin McElroy?

  Especially if we, uh, put this whole thing out.

• 1:21:41Travis McElroy?

  I thought, if I laughed at him a hundred times, he becomes mine like some sort of wish.

• 1:21:45Griffin McElroy?

  This actually isn't premeditated, cuz Justin didn't write down his shit before we came in.

• 1:21:49Travis McElroy?

  I, I came, I said it. But I also didn't write it down before.

• 1:21:54Griffin McElroy?

  You can't, you'll never be able to prove that.

• 1:21:55Travis McElroy?

  Now, I would like to, for us to just kinda jazz out, see what sticks and fiddlesticks. Cuz those are the two that I'm circling back to, and I think with.

• 1:22:04Griffin McElroy?

  They're certainly the most cogent.

• 1:22:07Griffin McElroy?

  Ideas between those two as I I do like the uh, concept of throwing spaghetti at the wall. I worry the subtitle is not going to be as strong there. I worry we giving up on fiddlesticks, guys. Fiddlesticks.

• 1:22:22Travis McElroy?

  Fiddlesticks is so good to say.

• 1:22:24Griffin McElroy?

  Fiddlesticks is so good to say, it just feels like we have to bring it the fuck home on the subtitle. Which is rare for us that we have like.

• 1:22:32Travis McElroy?

  Because fiddlesticks is like, there's nothing, oh man. This is the part that I didn't want us to be recording for because there is a part where you have to speak honestly about how you feel.

• 1:22:46Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:22:47Travis McElroy?

  And you have to be earnest and that's that's you that requires you to be open. I think that twenty fiddlesticks. The problem with fiddlesticks is that it's not inherently funny. So whatever the, because it's like it's uh, it's it fits well, fiddlesticks is an expression. It's like it not inherently funny and that's what bothers me about it is that.

• 1:23:07Griffin McElroy?

  It's empty too.

• 1:23:08Travis McElroy?

  I know I'm I'm running out of average, but there's no way we're opening that.

• 1:23:12Travis McElroy?

  No, no, no, no, no.

• 1:23:13Travis McElroy?

  It's so, it is so hot. So hot, I would die to pee. It's been eighty one minutes.

• 1:23:18Griffin McElroy?

  Is there a subtitle strong enough to redeem fiddlesticks? As a, this is, I agree.

• 1:23:24Travis McElroy?

  That's why I liked, that's why.

• 1:23:25Travis McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks, uh, that uh, a battle with the devil.

• 1:23:31Griffin McElroy?

  Like you're saying, you're actually.

• 1:23:32Travis McElroy?

  We're a podcast, like for God's sake.

• 1:23:34Travis McElroy?

  No, but I'm saying like a devil went down to Georgia.

• 1:23:36Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, no, no, no.

• 1:23:37Travis McElroy?

  Best fiddle player.

• 1:23:38Griffin McElroy?

  But you're not gonna be able to do much with that, I don't think.

• 1:23:40Travis McElroy?

  Twenty, that's why I liked forgiveness within was such a big swing.

• 1:23:45Griffin McElroy?

  It's like cute, it's like kinda cute. Can we turn it where it doesn't have to be bust up funny and instead can be kinda cute?

• 1:23:51Travis McElroy?

  I thought twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:23:53Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:23:54Travis McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks, aw shucks.

• 1:23:55Griffin McElroy?

  Aw shit.

• 1:23:56Travis McElroy?

  We're just little guys.

• 1:23:57Travis McElroy?

  Aw shucks, boss.

• 1:23:58Griffin McElroy?

  Aw shit, aw shit.

• 1:23:59Travis McElroy?

  Aw shit, boss.

• 1:24:01Griffin McElroy?

  Fuck.

• 1:24:01Travis McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:24:02Griffin McElroy?

  Fucked up.

• 1:24:02Travis McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:24:03Travis McElroy?

  Aw, no, we haven't. Everyone else did.

• 1:24:06Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:24:07Travis McElroy?

  How about twenty?

• 1:24:08Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks, you fucked up.

• 1:24:10Travis McElroy?

  Twenty?

• 1:24:11Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks, apologize.

• 1:24:13Travis McElroy?

  What do you think about twenty undermix? Love it, lumpy.

• 1:24:18Griffin McElroy?

  I don't, I didn't like the way you just, can you say it in a different way? No, no, say it a different way.

• 1:24:21Travis McElroy?

  I, because some is better. Twenty under mix, some love it lumpy, or twenty fiddlesticks for govnous within. Twenty see what sticks.

• 1:24:31Travis McElroy?

  Spaghetti at the wall.

• 1:24:33Travis McElroy?

  Twenty see what sticks spaghetti at the wall is, is, is too conventional.

• 1:24:37Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty see what stick, twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:24:39Travis McElroy?

  Both of those. Twenty fiddlesticks feel like an express, like, see what sticks. Is a, an expression of a mood or idea, like, see what sticks, that makes sense, right? If you're like.

• 1:24:53Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty see what sticks. I, I do like, I also really, really like it as a projectile of wisdom that we can point at.

• 1:25:01Travis McElroy?

  Right. But see what sticks is already so idiomatic.

• 1:25:04Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:25:05Travis McElroy?

  Right? We're not building something else on the house of see what sticks. That is an idiom that exists. We're not inventing a new idea.

• 1:25:12Griffin McElroy?

  Right, right, right, right.

• 1:25:13Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, what about?

• 1:25:14Travis McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks is the same way, right? We are, fiddlesticks is like, it, it makes sense, but we're, we gotta come up with an, an abstract sometime.

• 1:25:20Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:25:21Travis McElroy?

  Twenty tingle bits.

• 1:25:23Travis McElroy?

  Just city show. I was, see, I was gonna say twenty under chicks and be done with it, but.

• 1:25:28Travis McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:25:28Travis McElroy?

  It was twenty under chicks, oh yeah, man.

• 1:25:30Travis McElroy?

  That's what it was.

• 1:25:31Travis McElroy?

  Hey.

• 1:25:32Travis McElroy?

  Cool dude.

• 1:25:33Travis McElroy?

  It was, oh, so you read it already. It was, oh yeah, man, cool dude.

• 1:25:37Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, I liked it, I liked it a lot.

• 1:25:38Travis McElroy?

  Under twenty chicks, oh yeah, man, cool dude.

• 1:25:41Travis McElroy?

  That's what it was gonna be. I don't think we should do that.

• 1:25:44Travis McElroy?

  I wrote it down, uh, you guys accused me of not writing it down, I wrote it down.

• 1:25:48Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty.

• 1:25:49Travis McElroy?

  Twenty.

• 1:25:50Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks. You, you fucked up. Twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:25:58Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty fiddlesticks.

• 1:26:02Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty see what sticks.

• 1:26:04Travis McElroy?

  Twenty wizard sticks.

• 1:26:06Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty wizard sticks.

• 1:26:07Travis McElroy?

  We should have bring, we should make the other one.

• 1:26:09Griffin McElroy?

  This is the, this is, can I be, be honest? This is my least favorite part of the episode where we have to go back through the fuck it. We have to dig around in the, in the trash.

• 1:26:17Travis McElroy?

  Snickle fritz. Oh, twenty snickle fritz.

• 1:26:19Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty snickle fritz is cool.

• 1:26:20Travis McElroy?

  No, it's not.

• 1:26:21Travis McElroy?

  Twenty snickle fritz, bottom of the barrel.

• 1:26:23Travis McElroy?

  I don't wanna explain the spelling every frigging time.

• 1:26:26Griffin McElroy?

  No, that word is enough in the public consciousness that I think it would be fine. I think people could figure out snickle fritz.

• 1:26:33Travis McElroy?

  Twenty on the fritz.

• 1:26:36Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty on the ritz.

• 1:26:37Travis McElroy?

  Twenty on the.

• 1:26:39Griffin McElroy?

  Okay, are we allowing ts and ps? Are we allowing ts and ps?

• 1:26:46Griffin McElroy?

  Cause if so, we could be here for another, our, our significant others will be upset. Funny on the ritz. Our significant others will be upset if we open up and No, they can't. No, we can't. 120 minutes. It's X. X is the sound. It's gotta be X. 20 got the X.

• 1:27:05Griffin McElroy?

  20 got- It's too negative. You posit- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 20 nicks the X. Give, just because they do something you think is weird. Maybe he's a great guy. That's a cool, that's a really cool energy going.

• 1:27:28Griffin McElroy?

  I think I just gave a lot of people the ick with that. But this is why I need this message to really stick. I'm seeing what sticks right now. I'm seeing what sticks. 20 make it stick. 20 make it stick. 20 make it. Make, 20 make it stick. Throw it harder.

• 1:27:46Griffin McElroy?

  Wait, guys, there's something cool there. 20, this idea of throwing the spaghetti at the wall and see what sticks. If it doesn't stick, throw it. Make it stick. 20, 20 make it stick, throw it harder.

• 1:27:58Griffin McElroy?

  Toss it hard. Throw it harder. Throw it hard. Okay, we're so close. I don't think the subtitle should be a, a command. I think it should be a, something like, 20 make it stick. Throw it again. Toss, no, that's a command. Something like, throw in hot, throw in fast. Chucking fast. 20 make it stick. Bring the cheddar. Bring the heat. Bring the, 20 make it stick. Bring the, bring- Toss the sauce. Toss the sauce. 20 make it stick, toss the sauce. Cause if you toss the sauce with the noodles, it's definitely going to stick. 20 make it su- make it, I'm just gonna, I feel like we're so close with make it stick feels so good to me.

• 1:28:38Griffin McElroy?

  Cause that's not anything, but it also suggests that it's not fucked up. You didn't try hard. 20 make it stick, do the impossible. No. Travis, can I be honest though? There was like, I, there was hang time, there was hang time on that one. That's why I said no so fast. Anything's possible. Anything's, no, 20, 20 make it stick, throw it, throw it harder, toss it. I don't wanna let go of anything's possible. You gotta, you got to. You're being out overruled. Forget it. Dude, I, not a pun. I don't think a pun is gonna be strong. It's gotta, make it stick.

• 1:29:15Griffin McElroy?

  Pitch, pitch, throw, toss, yeet. Uh. Bring the heat. Uh. Chuck the cheddar. Chuck the cheddar. Top, twenty make it stick. Boss the sauce. Always throw harder, top, boss this, boss that sauce. Low and slow. Twenty, no, it's gotta be fast and hard and do it again. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Twenty make it stick, do it again. Twenty make it stick.

• 1:29:42Griffin McElroy?

  Try, try again, try, try again. Twenty make it stick.

• 1:29:48Griffin McElroy?

  The spaghetti's gone dry. The spaghetti's gone dry. Twenty make it stick, try a different wall. This is a good, this is another. Twenty make it stick. Maybe do the ceiling. This time.

• 1:30:04Griffin McElroy?

  More noodles. Find another wall. More noodles. Newer wall, stickier wall. Whiter noodles. Whiter noodles. Udon. Udon. Twenty make it stick, doesn't even sound like twenty twenty six. Justin. We're not doing this. I, it's a million degrees in here. Twenty make it stick. This is cool, you know why I like this one so much? Why? Is because it's what we're doing right the fuck now. Why I like this so much is because it's what we're doing right the fuck now. Make it stick. Make it stick, don't. On the rebound. No. Twenty make it stick. Twenty make it stick. Find your angle. Twenty make it stick, squish it on there. Twenty make it stick. Squish it on there. Squish it on. Squish one on. Brute force the funny. Brute force. Squish it out. Twenty make it stick. Squish it on. Squish it on. Glue it on.

• 1:30:49Griffin McElroy?

  Squish it on. Twenty make it stick. Glue it on, baby. Set yourself free. Accept no limits. Glue the limits. Twenty make. Spaghetti to the limit. Accept no failure. Twenty make it stick, accept no failure. And it's, and it's like, no. I know that didn't go the way that I wanted. We can have twenty make it stick, except no failure and twenty underbigs love it lumpy and then it's kind of like whatever your mood that day. It's maybe because you under mixed it is why it's not sticking. Twenty. Twenty make it stick.

• 1:31:24Griffin McElroy?

  Good enough, good enough for now. Twenty make it stick.

• 1:31:28Travis McElroy?

  Good enough for now. Twenty make it stick, good enough for now is two different ideas.

• 1:31:31Griffin McElroy?

  Yeah.

• 1:31:32Travis McElroy?

  It twenty make it stick.

• 1:31:33Griffin McElroy?

  You're right. Twenty make it stick. Stop giving up. Stop giving up on everything.

• 1:31:40Griffin McElroy?

  Throw it again.

• 1:31:41Travis McElroy?

  Throw it again.

• 1:31:42Griffin McElroy?

  Maybe it's humid in here. Throw it again.

• 1:31:44Travis McElroy?

  Twenty make it stick. Throw it.

• 1:31:46Griffin McElroy?

  One more, one more shot.

• 1:31:47Travis McElroy?

  The reason I like, okay.

• 1:31:51Travis McElroy?

  The reason I like throw it again is that it underlines the make it stick. So make it stick, you're not exactly what it sure it means. And then you say throw it again. And then it's like we're throwing spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks. You've closed the idea.

• 1:32:06Griffin McElroy?

  The first time.

• 1:32:06Griffin McElroy?

  Twenty make it stick. You're right. We're going too far away from throw it again. Twenty make it stick, throw it again. Is there another word for throw that we could do?

• 1:32:15Griffin McElroy?

  Chuck it.

• 1:32:16Griffin McElroy?

  I, I tell you, the only part I don't like is the word throw and the word again.

• 1:32:20Griffin McElroy?

  Pitch it.

• 1:32:21Travis McElroy?

  So you like it?

• 1:32:23Griffin McElroy?

  Okay, yeah.

• 1:32:25Travis McElroy?

  Okay.

• 1:32:26Griffin McElroy?

  One more to, one more toss.

• 1:32:28Travis McElroy?

  One more chuck, one more.

• 1:32:29Griffin McElroy?

  One more pitch.

• 1:32:30Travis McElroy?

  Little extra chatter. Bring the chatter.

• 1:32:33Griffin McElroy?

  Throw it again. Twenty.

• 1:32:36Griffin McElroy?

  Full count. Um, full send.

• 1:32:40Griffin McElroy?

  Fastball. Give him the, give him.

• 1:32:43Travis McElroy?

  By twenty make it stick, fastball, cornerback.

• 1:32:46Griffin McElroy?

  Fastball special.

• 1:32:48Griffin McElroy?

  Fastball.

• 1:32:52Griffin McElroy?

  All he.

• 1:32:53Griffin McElroy?

  No.

• 1:32:54Griffin McElroy?

  Fastball for.

• 1:32:58Griffin McElroy?

  Big boy.

• 1:33:00Travis McElroy?

  No, that's it.

• 1:33:02Griffin McElroy?

  No, this is cool.

• 1:33:03Travis McElroy?

  That's it.

• 1:33:04Griffin McElroy?

  What I like is like the big boys, the big boys, the big boy is watching, he's in the hospital and he's like. Tell, talking to you before the game like.

• 1:33:12Griffin McElroy?

  Hmm.

• 1:33:13Griffin McElroy?

  Make it stick for me.

• 1:33:18Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, Griffin, we wanted to check back in with 20 Honey Sticks back in business.

• 1:33:25Travis McElroy?

  Trav, you think you got the sense too, okay?

• 1:33:28Travis McElroy?

  Because honey is sticky.

• 1:33:29Travis McElroy?

  Can I just say?

• 1:33:30Travis McElroy?

  Oh, 20 honey sticks because it would help, it would help it.

• 1:33:34Griffin McElroy?

  Do you see what, do you see what you did?

• 1:33:36Travis McElroy?

  Can I, I'll see, here's what I will say. You, the same person who is clucking his tongue at 20 Honey Sticks is the same man that just wrote 20 make it stick fastball for the big boy. So I don't know.

• 1:33:48Griffin McElroy?

  Uh oh. What was that sound you just made with your body when you said it out loud? What was the emotion you, what was the emotion you felt when you said that out loud just now? Tell me.

• 1:33:57Travis McElroy?

  Laughter.

• 1:33:57Griffin McElroy?

  Laughter and what was the emotion?

• 1:33:59Travis McElroy?

  We were also talking about like throw it again to stick it to the wall and you've somehow created a narrative that there was a boy in the hospital.

• 1:34:04Griffin McElroy?

  Guys, I got it.

• 1:34:05Travis McElroy?

  He didn't ask for a home run. He asked for a picture to throw.

• 1:34:10Griffin McElroy?

  But the big boy can be inside you. That's what I'm saying. The big boy is in your heart and

• 1:34:14Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 1:34:15Griffin McElroy?

  Don't disappoint yourself.

• 1:34:16Travis McElroy?

  20 make it stick a heater for the big boy.

• 1:34:19Travis McElroy?

  A heater for the big boy is pretty good.

• 1:34:38Griffin McElroy?

  Guys, I just got a low battery alert on my laptop. Can it be 20 make it stick a heater for the big boy?

• 1:34:44Travis McElroy?

  Yeah, yeah. Yeah, absolutely.

• 1:34:46Griffin McElroy?

  Oh, fuck. Oh, man, that's really good.

• 1:34:51Travis McElroy?

  Okay, so the name of

• 1:34:53Griffin McElroy?

  Oh, shit, dude.

• 1:34:55Travis McElroy?

  2026, uh, is 20

• 1:35:04Travis McElroy?

  20 make it stick a heater for the big boy.

• 1:35:08Travis McElroy?

  Um, we got, we'll edit it the other stuff later, right?

• 1:35:11Griffin McElroy?

  I, yeah, man, I'm dripping sweat.

• 1:35:13Travis McElroy?
