  Welcome back to the basement.

• 0:36Speaker 01

  Welcome back to the basement yard.

• 0:39Speaker 02

  We're here.

• 0:40Speaker 01

  How you doing?

• 0:41Speaker 02

  Me and you.

• 0:41Speaker 01

  Schmeddy merch?

• 0:42Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 0:42Speaker 01

  Very nice.

• 0:43Speaker 02

  It's a good shirt, it's a quality shirt.

• 0:44Speaker 01

  And I'm not just saying that because he's my friend, it's like a good thick shirt.

• 0:47Speaker 02

  It does look thick.

• 0:47Speaker 01

  I do have to sneeze and also, it's just us today, nobody else here, because apparently Ant's on the run.

• 0:55Speaker 03

  I got something going on with my eye, that's why.

• 0:57Speaker 01

  What's going on with your eye?

• 0:57Speaker 02

  What's going on with your head?

• 0:58Speaker 03

  I think after the face paint, I got, I'm growing a little sty in my eye.

• 1:01Speaker 01

  Oh really? I hate that.

• 1:05Speaker 01

  Not how you sneeze. Not how anyone sneezes.

• 1:10Speaker 01

  Did that fuck your ears up?

• 1:11Speaker 03

  It hurt.

• 1:11Speaker 01

  Now you got something fucking in your ear, huh?

• 1:14Speaker 03

  Tuesdays.

• 1:15Speaker 01

  Tues- what?

• 1:16Speaker 03

  Nothing.

• 1:16Speaker 01

  Do you have a sty, really?

• 1:18Speaker 03

  It's very small, but I'm afraid-

• 1:19Speaker 01

  But it's growing.

• 1:19Speaker 03

  I'm afraid it's gonna pop up on camera.

• 1:21Speaker 01

  Dude, it is so miniscule and you're being just intense, like-

• 1:25Speaker 02

  I saw your face before, I didn't see a sty.

• 1:26Speaker 01

  Yeah, you're fine, dude, I-

• 1:27Speaker 02

  Otherwise I would've been like, "The fuck is that?"

• 1:29Speaker 01

  What's that fucking thing on your eye?

• 1:31Speaker 02

  What's the growth on your face?

• 1:32Speaker 01

  What the fuck, you freak?

• 1:34Speaker 02

  You got a growth that you probably don't want to talk about? Look at it!

• 1:36Speaker 01

  I had a sty once for like, two months and it was like-

• 1:40Speaker 02

  Two months?

• 1:41Speaker 01

  Dude, a long-

• 1:41Speaker 02

  Did you shove your head inside of a colon? How'd you get that?

• 1:44Speaker 01

  That doesn't happen like that, brother.

• 1:45Speaker 02

  I don't know how sty's are-

• 1:46Speaker 01

  It's a pimple under your eyelid.

• 1:48Speaker 02

  Got it.

• 1:48Speaker 01

  That's all it is.

• 1:49Speaker 02

  I didn't know.

• 1:50Speaker 01

  It was bad and to the point where like, I was like, in the mirror, like, fucking saw with like, a fucking needle, ready to like, try to get it.

• 1:58Speaker 02

  How do you, how do you treat a sty?

• 2:00Speaker 03

  You're definitely, you're not supposed to pop it.

• 2:02Speaker 01

  You're not supposed to pop them, but they say that like, you know, like a hot compress, I've seen people saying like, put teabags on it, honestly, for some reason, but-

• 2:10Speaker 03

  I'm not getting my face teabag.

• 2:11Speaker 01

  Wow, that's crazy.

• 2:13Speaker 02

  You're asking the right circles, I'm sure people will drag their teabags across your eyeballs. You know?

• 2:19Speaker 01

  Uh, but you definitely did that.

• 2:22Speaker 02

  Put a tea bag on it.

• 2:22Speaker 01

  Okay, let's make it very clear. Like an actual tea bag, not, not.

• 2:28Speaker 02

  Not balls of a man.

• 2:29Speaker 01

  Not what people think of like dragging like nutsacks.

• 2:32Speaker 02

  You're not that.

• 2:33Speaker 01

  Not doing nutsacks on the eyes.

• 2:34Speaker 02

  Two months is crazy.

• 2:36Speaker 01

  Dude, it was bad. It was, and I had started a new job at that time, so like they took like my like, like my ID badge picture.

• 2:43Speaker 02

  Oh no.

• 2:43Speaker 01

  And I was like.

• 2:44Speaker 02

  And you were stied up?

• 2:45Speaker 01

  I was fucking stied out and it sucked.

• 2:47Speaker 02

  I don't know if I've had a sty, I feel like I have, but I don't remember.

• 2:51Speaker 01

  It very, like, they can be painful, but I think.

• 2:54Speaker 02

  Like annoying, right?

• 2:55Speaker 01

  It's just more, yeah, it's just more of an annoyance.

• 2:57Speaker 02

  You know what I get that's very annoying? Tonsil stones.

• 3:00Speaker 01

  Oh, I hate those videos. I've seen people like do videos where they like pull them out with like.

• 3:04Speaker 02

  Dude, I have to, I have to go with a toothpick in the back of my throat and I've got a bad gag reflex.

• 3:11Speaker 01

  Oh yeah.

• 3:12Speaker 02

  So I'm in the bathroom just going.

• 3:14Speaker 01

  You're making people happy with this part.

• 3:17Speaker 02

  That I what?

• 3:18Speaker 01

  You have to like shove down your throat and you're just like, ugh.

• 3:21Speaker 02

  Yeah, okay. Um, but I'm taking a toothpick.

• 3:24Speaker 01

  Are they like stones?

• 3:25Speaker 02

  I've used a knife before.

• 3:26Speaker 01

  Are they, that's, come on, brother.

• 3:27Speaker 02

  I swear to God, I've used a knife.

• 3:28Speaker 03

  But how, how would a toothpick get it out?

• 3:31Speaker 02

  Cause it's like, it's mushy.

• 3:32Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 3:32Speaker 02

  It's not a stone.

• 3:33Speaker 01

  It's not a stone and it smells like shit, I heard.

• 3:35Speaker 02

  It does.

• 3:36Speaker 01

  I don't think I've ever had one, but I heard they smell like shit.

• 3:39Speaker 02

  Well, my.

• 3:42Speaker 01

  Cause it's just like a collection of food that's just been rotting back there, right?

• 3:45Speaker 02

  Well.

• 3:47Speaker 02

  I actually don't know what it is because it doesn't like look like food. It's just like a squishy white thing.

• 3:53Speaker 01

  Hell.

• 3:53Speaker 02

  So I don't.

• 3:54Speaker 01

  I mean, it's gotta be food. What the fuck else could it be?

• 3:56Speaker 02

  Can you look up what a ton, tonsil stone is?

• 3:57Speaker 01

  No.

• 3:58Speaker 03

  Like what it, what it is?

• 3:59Speaker 02

  Like what is it?

• 3:59Speaker 01

  Yeah, look up science.

• 4:00Speaker 02

  Yeah, just type in science.

• 4:02Speaker 01

  Science on tonsil stones.

• 4:03Speaker 02

  Right.

• 4:04Speaker 01

  I do hate those.

• 4:05Speaker 02

  It's like a, there's like a pocket in my tonsil and like sometimes they get in there and then like, you can feel it kind of rubbing on your tongue and you're like, oh my God.

• 4:12Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 4:12Speaker 02

  But you can't get it out unless you like pick it out.

• 4:14Speaker 01

  That sucks. You should just get your tonsils removed. That's like something that people do.

• 4:18Speaker 02

  I was supposed to get my tonsils removed when I was younger because dude, I don't know how this happened, but when I was younger, my, if you watch my, uh, earlier videos that are no longer on the internet, but if, if those videos, I sound so nasally. And it's because my throat felt like, ugh, like it felt like. I was talking like that.

• 4:34Speaker 01

  You're right, you did, but also there were other things that were happening with your voice. You were like, you were like, yo, like, don't be a fucking hoe on the internet. That's my Joe Santagato in 2013 impression. Like, yo, if you're a slut, you can be a fucking slut.

• 4:56Speaker 01

  Yo, if you're at fucking Walmart, put pants on. Also, girls, give hand jobs.

• 5:07Speaker 01

  I wasn't much better, let's be honest.

• 5:09Speaker 02

  Oh my god.

• 5:09Speaker 01

  The other thing, I was worse. I'm just glad at the time, there was less footage.

• 5:12Speaker 02

  I was way more like Queens than I am now.

• 5:14Speaker 01

  You were definitely, and it comes out every now and then.

• 5:16Speaker 02

  No, it does, it does.

• 5:17Speaker 01

  There's that clip of when you said like, you were like, also like.

• 5:21Speaker 02

  Yeah, it came out of me.

• 5:22Speaker 01

  It came right back out.

• 5:23Speaker 02

  Yeah, I don't know, man.

• 5:24Speaker 01

  The Queens, the, well, that wasn't necessarily the Queens in you, that was also the like, you know, going to school in like Corona of you.

• 5:33Speaker 02

  Probably, yeah. I mean, that was so funny, dude.

• 5:36Speaker 01

  So wait, so like your nas, I know like the.

• 5:38Speaker 02

  I was, it sounded like my throat, but I, I used to get really bad, uh, sore throats. And, um, you know, when that's happening, and you could see like my tonsils were so big, but now that, that stopped happening to me.

• 5:51Speaker 01

  Do you ever had to, like, have you ever had to get them like milked?

• 5:55Speaker 02

  It's a great question.

• 5:56Speaker 01

  Do you, do, that's a great question. I think it's a really good question.

• 6:00Speaker 02

  Yeah, I think it's a great question.

• 6:00Speaker 01

  Like.

• 6:01Speaker 02

  When do tonsils get milked?

• 6:02Speaker 01

  Suppressed.

• 6:04Speaker 02

  Wait, what?

• 6:04Speaker 01

  Are you?

• 6:08Speaker 02

  I am dealing with two different types of stupidity here. One at a time.

• 6:12Speaker 01

  Hey.

• 6:13Speaker 02

  Do you think that people go to the doctors and they milk your tonsils?

• 6:16Speaker 01

  I mean, they go in and I'm sure they squeeze stuff out of it, like they get rid of tonsil stones if they're too big for being stones in your mouth.

• 6:21Speaker 02

  No, if you, if they like get too large, they just take them out. They don't milk them. And how do they take them out? They cut them out. You think they're milking people's tonsils?

• 6:31Speaker 01

  I mean, I imagine they go in and they have to like get stuff out of them and that includes, I've seen videos on fucking, on the internet of like people like going in with like, that like, that thing that has like a wire, that's like a circle on the end of it and they go in and they press it and then stones just pop out and they're fucking hideous and they're stupid.

• 6:49Speaker 01

  Fucking weird ass. Fix your throat.

• 6:52Speaker 02

  No, you don't get milked at the doctor, dude. You don't get milked, you just get them taken out.

• 6:57Speaker 01

  Well, cuz it.

• 6:58Speaker 02

  Okay. So I didn't, I don't do that, but I, I have.

• 7:01Speaker 01

  There are parts of the body that need milking.

• 7:04Speaker 02

  Yep. Need is crazy.

• 7:07Speaker 01

  No, but like, I know, um. I know people that have had like, from like, uh, breastfeeding, they've had blocked ducts and they need to like, work it out and like, then, you know.

• 7:19Speaker 02

  Of course.

• 7:20Speaker 01

  And, or like, it reminds me of.

• 7:22Speaker 02

  That's the only one. Let's get that out of here. Nothing else needs to be milked.

• 7:26Speaker 03

  I'm 20% sure that you could milk the prostate.

• 7:29Speaker 02

  Yeah, but it doesn't need to be milked.

• 7:31Speaker 01

  I mean.

• 7:31Speaker 03

  Sometimes it does, I think.

• 7:32Speaker 01

  I mean, you need to milk, you need to milk your dog's.

• 7:35Speaker 02

  On your birthday, it does.

• 7:37Speaker 01

  You need, you need to milk dogs' anal glands.

• 7:40Speaker 02

  That's true. They call that expressing them.

• 7:42Speaker 01

  Expressing, not suppressing, expressing. So like, I'm sure there are other parts of the body that must be expressed. I sound like a fucking priest. Express me with you. Express, express the milk from your titty.

• 7:55Speaker 02

  And also with you.

• 7:56Speaker 03

  Did we want to know what a tosso is made of?

• 7:57Speaker 01

  Yeah, what is it?

• 7:58Speaker 03

  It's a bacteria, dead cells, calcium and phosphate and food debris, all in one.

• 8:02Speaker 01

  So it's a combo of food, calcium, detritus. Is that one of those? What was the other D in there?

• 8:08Speaker 02

  No one said detritus.

• 8:10Speaker 01

  What, what was the D word?

• 8:12Speaker 03

  I, dead cells?

• 8:14Speaker 01

  There it is.

• 8:15Speaker 03

  I don't know what.

• 8:16Speaker 01

  You heard detritus? I mean, I just. Uh, you heard.

• 8:20Speaker 02

  That sounds like a cool Greek god, I will say that.

• 8:22Speaker 01

  Detritus is a thing.

• 8:23Speaker 02

  Is it?

• 8:24Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's a thing. I don't remember exactly.

• 8:26Speaker 02

  Detritus spelled detritus.

• 8:27Speaker 01

  Exactly what detritus is. It does sound like a really, really cool, like, a Greek, a Greek bully, or a Greek god who's like, in cool with like, you know, like, he's on the river Styx and he goes to Hades and he's like, "It's me, it's detritus." And he talks like that.

• 8:48Speaker 02

  Are you okay? Is something going on?

• 8:50Speaker 03

  It's a waste or debris of any kind, detritus.

• 8:53Speaker 02

  Ah, that's pretty good.

• 8:54Speaker 01

  Technically, it is detritus.

• 8:56Speaker 02

  What you said was wrong, let's get that out of the way.

• 8:58Speaker 01

  No, no, no, no.

• 8:58Speaker 02

  Just now, I mean.

• 8:59Speaker 01

  Technically.

• 9:00Speaker 02

  It is detritus, that was right.

• 9:02Speaker 01

  Yeah, technically a tonsil stone is-

• 9:03Speaker 02

  The ghost that you created.

• 9:04Speaker 01

  Oh, the Greek character.

• 9:06Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 9:07Speaker 01

  I mean, but if they're gonna name it after something, waste and like, like, bad stuff, would they not name it after the person that, that kinda brings people on the ship on the River Styx to the underworld? And it's like, they're named after him because he's transporting dead stuff. Waste.

• 9:26Speaker 02

  We don't need to do all that, but-

• 9:29Speaker 01

  We're going to see Haiti, I am detritus. But they'd be Greek, so they'd be like, eggnog.

• 9:36Speaker 02

  Eggnog.

• 9:37Speaker 01

  Eggnog. That's it, that's all I got.

• 9:40Speaker 02

  Alright, well, that was beautiful.

• 9:42Speaker 01

  Uh, never had tonsil stones.

• 9:44Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 9:44Speaker 01

  Never had kidney stones? Knock on fucking wood, I hear those are bad, dude.

• 9:49Speaker 02

  I, uh, sometimes though, when I have tonsil stones, if I, this happened to me the other day, I was talking and it just flew out of my mouth.

• 9:56Speaker 01

  Ew!

• 9:57Speaker 03

  That's a little gross.

• 9:58Speaker 01

  Fuck it.

• 10:00Speaker 01

  I don't like that, like, fuck that.

• 10:02Speaker 02

  Oh, oh, yeah, yeah.

• 10:03Speaker 01

  Um, I saw a video once of someone cutting open a bladder to get rid of kidney stones, and it, I'm not even kidding, looked like just a hand holding rocks.

• 10:13Speaker 03

  You thinking about gallstones?

• 10:15Speaker 01

  Wait, no, bla- a fucking, uh, the ones that you piss out.

• 10:19Speaker 02

  Isn't that in the kidney?

• 10:21Speaker 01

  Wherever they cut it out of, I don't remember-

• 10:22Speaker 02

  The kidney stone?

• 10:23Speaker 01

  Maybe, I don't remember where they cut it out, but look up a picture-

• 10:26Speaker 03

  No.

• 10:27Speaker 01

  And, he doesn't need to put this up, I want Joey to see this.

• 10:31Speaker 02

  I'm not a squeamish kinda guy.

• 10:33Speaker 01

  I'm not a squeamish guy kinda guy either, but Josh, don't put this in.

• 10:36Speaker 02

  I feel like you're trying to squeam me, though.

• 10:37Speaker 01

  I'm not, I don't wanna squeam you at all, babe.

• 10:40Speaker 03

  What would you, what's your order, sir?

• 10:41Speaker 01

  I'm pre-squeam. Uh, look up giant kidney stones in gi- in the body.

• 10:47Speaker 03

  Oh my-

• 10:51Speaker 01

  Oh. Oh, boy.

• 10:54Speaker 02

  I don't know if it's gonna-

• 10:54Speaker 01

  Oh, boy.

• 10:57Speaker 02

  I don't know if this is what you wanted.

• 10:58Speaker 01

  Oh, dude, this sucks.

• 11:00Speaker 02

  No.

• 11:01Speaker 01

  Oh, and they look evil.

• 11:02Speaker 02

  Yeah. What is that? Oh, those are the rocks. Oh, my god. This looks like a brain. Look how big they could get. No, no.

• 11:08Speaker 01

  I mean, I've seen bigger than that, dude.

• 11:10Speaker 02

  Half an inch?

• 11:11Speaker 01

  Dude, I've seen bigger.

• 11:15Speaker 01

  And I don't think that's an inch, brother. I think that's a centimeter.

• 11:20Speaker 02

  Hmm, yeah, it might be. It is-

• 11:23Speaker 01

  Because there's ten ticks.

• 11:24Speaker 02

  A one-inch?

• 11:26Speaker 01

  A one-inch stone is not making it through your piss hole, brother.

• 11:30Speaker 02

  Yeah, you're gonna have to get that blasted. Not, not an inch.

• 11:32Speaker 01

  How do they blast them? Do they just, like, punch you in the kidney for, like, an hour?

• 11:36Speaker 02

  You know that's not what they do.

• 11:38Speaker 01

  I'm asking.

• 11:39Speaker 02

  I think that it's like a, um...

• 11:42Speaker 01

  Like, sound?

• 11:43Speaker 02

  Uh, yeah, like, I don't know. Yeah, it's like a whale-

• 11:46Speaker 01

  Yeah, like, they have a whale scream in your back.

• 11:52Speaker 02

  They do sonar and fucking blow it up.

• 11:54Speaker 01

  That'd be pretty cool.

• 11:55Speaker 02

  Honestly, that would be awesome. I would, like, go to my get one so they could have a whale scream at me. You think that's loud as hell?

• 12:02Speaker 01

  Oh, you'd imagine. If they, they can hear it from, like, miles away.

• 12:05Speaker 02

  Right. But, like, sound travels differently through water. I don't even know if that's true.

• 12:09Speaker 01

  Uh, no, I think the laws of nature allow that to be true.

• 12:12Speaker 02

  But, like, is, it, does sh- sound travel further in water? Probably not.

• 12:17Speaker 01

  Oh, that's a great question that we're not gonna look up.

• 12:20Speaker 02

  No, no, no. Because think about this. If we're both in a pool and we scream, it's low.

• 12:25Speaker 01

  Yeah, but we are humans. We are not whales. They are, they are-

• 12:29Speaker 02

  Well, that's not-

• 12:29Speaker 01

  Evolutionarily, basically conditioned in order to do that.

• 12:35Speaker 02

  I'm saying when-

• 12:40Speaker 03

  But that's more about hearing. I'm saying sound waves. They travel-

• 13:14Speaker 02

  Less in water. They must.

• 13:16Speaker 03

  Sound waves travel faster in water, up to 4.3 times faster.

• 13:19Speaker 02

  Oh!

• 13:20Speaker 01

  But further? I mean, I think further, further all depends on-

• 13:27Speaker 02

  Woah, watch it there buddy!

• 13:30Speaker 01

  I think it all depends on the strength of the, of the sound. So like, we probably can't scream even at our highest-

• 13:38Speaker 03

  We can't scream like whales.

• 13:39Speaker 01

  Anything like a whale.

• 13:40Speaker 02

  Yeah, I could try though.

• 13:41Speaker 03

  It does also travel further.

• 13:43Speaker 02

  No way!

• 13:44Speaker 03

  Cause of the density, man.

• 13:46Speaker 01

  That's pretty cool.

• 13:47Speaker 02

  That's cool.

• 13:47Speaker 03

  Did you know penises look bigger underwater?

• 13:49Speaker 01

  Okay.

• 13:50Speaker 02

  Say what?

• 13:51Speaker 01

  One more time.

• 13:52Speaker 03

  Penises look bigger underwater?

• 13:53Speaker 02

  What, what website are you on?

• 13:55Speaker 03

  I learned that from Snooki.

• 13:57Speaker 01

  Um, I mean, listen, all due respect to Snooki. I don't know if that is where I would ask for her expertise.

• 14:07Speaker 02

  She is a woman.

• 14:09Speaker 01

  I mean, she also spent a lot of time at the Jersey Shore, but you can't see in the ocean.

• 14:14Speaker 02

  They spend a lot of times in hot tubs too, so maybe it's different in a hot tub.

• 14:17Speaker 01

  I could imagine that the hot tubs they were spending time in had murky water. Cause it was mostly vodka and Tanner.

• 14:26Speaker 01

  I like watched that show for the first time last year.

• 14:29Speaker 02

  Which is bananas.

• 14:31Speaker 01

  Yes, sure. What an insane-

• 14:36Speaker 01

  Like capturing a time and like pocket of human existence.

• 14:42Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 14:43Speaker 01

  Like it is so, bro, do me a favor.

• 14:46Speaker 02

  The world stopped when that came out.

• 14:48Speaker 01

  Bro, watch that show and first of all, cause we were seventeen, eighteen, nineteen when that show was at its peak in popularity. So we were the ones that were going out to clubs and shit like that. I wasn't a big clubber and I don't think you were either, but we went out to clubs.

• 15:02Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 15:03Speaker 01

  And like, not only did we like, at least I can speak for myself here, did I know people that were basically just miniature versions of Paulie, Vinny and Mike?

• 15:14Speaker 02

  Yeah, everybody.

• 15:15Speaker 01

  But like, there's just like a, like it's hard to explain, like that's such a moment in time and it's just like, holy fuck, yeah. It's just crazy.

• 15:25Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 15:26Speaker 01

  It's just a crazy thing where it's just like, that was us.

• 15:31Speaker 02

  Uh, you've lost me now.

• 15:34Speaker 01

  Why?

• 15:35Speaker 02

  What are you talking about?

• 15:36Speaker 01

  I actually, I don't, I don't wanna know.

• 15:37Speaker 02

  You don't care? I feel like you're going down a, one of those holes where it's like, there might not be a point.

• 15:43Speaker 01

  I'll be honest with you.

• 15:45Speaker 02

  I feel like what I just said was offensive.

• 15:46Speaker 01

  Little of what I say ever has a point at the start. I find points on the way.

• 15:50Speaker 02

  That's why I'm trying to say, cause I'm like, if we explain this even further, we might not get to a point.

• 15:55Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's like, it's like, you know, I'm like, I'm like a, I'm like a rose bush. Okay?

• 16:01Speaker 02

  Oh, we're back down another one. Go ahead.

• 16:02Speaker 01

  I'm a beautiful, like you see it and you're just like, wow. And then the stalks grow and then just points pop up. They don't ever plan on where the points are gonna be.

• 16:11Speaker 02

  The thorns, you mean?

• 16:12Speaker 01

  The thorns.

• 16:12Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 16:13Speaker 01

  They eventually just pop up and you're just like, wow, that's a real good one.

• 16:16Speaker 02

  That's a good point of a good thorn?

• 16:17Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 16:19Speaker 02

  Okay, perfect. Um, speaking of good points, well, that's not a good segue. Um, Frank's holding out on us. He was like, oh, we have a, what is it? The dictionary word of the year or something?

• 16:31Speaker 01

  Yes, so dictionary.com, uh, which is a thing, uh, which is why, like, well, don't get me started on dictionary.com. I can go on for hours about them.

• 16:42Speaker 02

  Can you?

• 16:45Speaker 01

  They announced their word of the year. So, just to give you some examples, we've had some previous word of the year.

• 16:54Speaker 02

  Like selfie.

• 16:55Speaker 01

  Selfie, riz, I think was on there.

• 16:58Speaker 02

  It's usually shit like that.

• 16:59Speaker 01

  Um, uh, hold on, I'm pulling up dictionary.com.

• 17:02Speaker 02

  Bay.

• 17:03Speaker 01

  So like, oh, 2024 dictionary.com word of the year was demure. Very demure, very mindful.

• 17:11Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 17:12Speaker 01

  2023 was hallucinate. What happened there?

• 17:14Speaker 02

  What?

• 17:15Speaker 01

  What happened there?

• 17:16Speaker 02

  Was that not in the, oh, it's not. I thought it was like a new word.

• 17:21Speaker 01

  No, no, no, like it's, it's just picking like the word of the year.

• 17:24Speaker 02

  Hallucinate? Word of the year means like they pick a word that's.

• 17:27Speaker 01

  They feel is like the word of the year.

• 17:29Speaker 02

  I thought they were introducing.

• 17:30Speaker 01

  How the fuck is hallucinate? I don't know, for 2023, I.

• 17:33Speaker 02

  What happened last year?

• 17:34Speaker 01

  That was two years ago. You were hallucinating.

• 17:38Speaker 01

  Uh, 2022, woman. Very, should be the word of the year every year.

• 17:44Speaker 02

  Why was it woman?

• 17:45Speaker 01

  I don't know.

• 17:46Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 17:47Speaker 01

  I, I mean, I, I really don't know.

• 17:49Speaker 02

  I don't remember this.

• 17:50Speaker 01

  2021, allyship.

• 17:53Speaker 01

  I see a link.

• 17:54Speaker 02

  Sure.

• 17:54Speaker 01

  I see a link on how we got from one to the other. Uh, 2020 pandemic.

• 17:59Speaker 02

  Well.

• 18:00Speaker 01

  Little on the nose.

• 18:01Speaker 02

  Too much.

• 18:01Speaker 01

  2019, existential. This goes back to 2010. Do you want, like, want me to keep going?

• 18:06Speaker 02

  You just say eggs?

• 18:07Speaker 01

  Existential.

• 18:08Speaker 02

  And then, oh yeah, let's just go back. I want to hear them.

• 18:09Speaker 01

  2018, misinformation.

• 18:12Speaker 02

  Okay, that's a good one.

• 18:15Speaker 01

  20, 20, listen, if you're in America, you remember 2016 to 2020.

• 18:20Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 18:21Speaker 01

  You probably remember 2020 very well, too. These words tend to follow a trend here.

• 18:26Speaker 02

  2017?

• 18:27Speaker 01

  20, uh, 17 was complicit.

• 18:31Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 18:32Speaker 01

  2016 was xenophobia.

• 18:35Speaker 02

  Yo, that being the word in an election year is hilarious.

• 18:38Speaker 01

  Which is crazy. Uh, 2015 was identity.

• 18:43Speaker 02

  Was that when we started doing all that?

• 18:46Speaker 01

  Sexual identity, maybe. Yeah, that was kinda like the awakening.

• 18:49Speaker 02

  No, I mean like the, the pronouns and all that stuff. Like, I feel like.

• 18:52Speaker 01

  I feel like that was later. I feel like that was like 2017. Like, people started putting them in emails and stuff.

• 18:56Speaker 02

  Dude, 2015 was 10 years ago.

• 18:58Speaker 01

  I know, it fucks me up. 2014, exposure. Sounds about right. That's the peak of like YouTube.

• 19:04Speaker 02

  Oh, okay.

• 19:05Speaker 01

  2013, privacy. Funny that.

• 19:08Speaker 02

  Privacy and then exposure. Flipped it on its head.

• 19:12Speaker 01

  Oh, 2017, complicit. I think that was the year of like the rise of the Me Too movement.

• 19:17Speaker 02

  Got it, yeah.

• 19:18Speaker 01

  So, that makes sense. Uh, 2012, bluster.

• 19:22Speaker 02

  What does that even mean?

• 19:23Speaker 01

  I don't know. I'll, I'll, I'll be honest. I also don't know what 2011 means. Turvick.

• 19:28Speaker 01

  Turgiversate?

• 19:31Speaker 02

  Turgiversate?

• 19:32Speaker 01

  Turgiversate. T E R G I V E R S A T E. I also don't know what bluster means.

• 19:39Speaker 02

  Can we get a ruling on those?

• 19:42Speaker 01

  And then 2010 was change.

• 19:45Speaker 02

  Was that Obama or is it? Oh no, that was Hope.

• 19:47Speaker 01

  Hope was, but that was, he was president at that point in time.

• 19:49Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 19:50Speaker 01

  Uh, but 2025, any idea? After you've heard some for previous years, other publications do like their word of the year. I'm sure we'll get one from like Merriam-Webster or Oxford because that's what they need to do now in order to be relevant. Um, but any idea, possible, possibility, on what the 2025 word of the year is?

• 20:13Speaker 02

  I'm gonna say...

• 20:20Speaker 02

  What is it? Is it political?

• 20:23Speaker 01

  No.

• 20:24Speaker 02

  Oh, damn it. That's where, immediately where my mind went. Uh, I'll say, I don't even remember what happened this year, to be honest. Fuck. Is it cool?

• 20:34Speaker 01

  I don't know how to answer, is it cool? I mean, that's subjective. Everything is cool to somebody.

• 20:40Speaker 02

  Uh, well, I only have all of the words in the dictionary to pick from right now.

• 20:43Speaker 01

  Like every... I mean.

• 20:45Speaker 02

  Do you think it properly represents the year?

• 20:47Speaker 01

  Uh, a part of the year. I don't know if it represents the whole year, but definitely a part of.

• 20:53Speaker 02

  Vaccine. I don't even know.

• 20:55Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, that would've been 21.

• 20:57Speaker 02

  Fuck, um.

• 20:59Speaker 01

  Oh, jerk. Great. Now, now, now the show, now the episode's being monetized.

• 21:02Speaker 02

  Shit, it's great! Um.

• 21:05Speaker 01

  Did you ever look up ter-gi- ter-giver state?

• 21:07Speaker 03

  I was honestly trying to remember the word you said without ruining-

• 21:11Speaker 01

  Bluster?

• 21:12Speaker 03

  No, no, so I got ter-giver state. It's making conflicting or evasive statements equivocate.

• 21:18Speaker 02

  We don't need that. We don't even need that. We don't even need that word. That's a crazy word.

• 21:23Speaker 01

  Like, we don't need that shit.

• 21:25Speaker 02

  Absolutely not.

• 21:26Speaker 01

  And bluster?

• 21:27Speaker 03

  Bluster-

• 21:27Speaker 01

  I mean, it just sounds like a really cool kid living down the block that has like a lazy eye.

• 21:31Speaker 03

  Bluster is-

• 21:39Speaker 02

  It does though.

• 21:40Speaker 01

  Oh, that's good old bluster.

• 21:41Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's bluster.

• 21:42Speaker 01

  Hey, guys, wanna come over? I have hot pockets.

• 21:46Speaker 03

  Uh, talk in a loud, aggressive, or indignant way with little effect.

• 21:51Speaker 02

  With a little effect, okay, cool.

• 21:53Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 21:54Speaker 02

  Alright, so this word for this year is going to be...

• 21:59Speaker 02

  I have no idea, dude. I- I-

• 22:01Speaker 01

  Ant, what do you think? Give us some, give us some, what do you think might be the dictionary.com word of the year?

• 22:06Speaker 03

  I- I thought this was like inducting a word, so now I don't even know.

• 22:09Speaker 02

  Yeah, I thought so too.

• 22:10Speaker 01

  I mean, they- they do, that does happen. It's not, I mean, I don't know. I imagine that if dictionary.com is like, that's the word of the year, they're going to induct it. But I don't know how this would get inducted into dictionary.com. Like, where they would put this in the dictionary.

• 22:26Speaker 03

  Would like brat?

• 22:28Speaker 01

  Well, I would know where they would put that. I mean, but brat was last year. Brat was, like, brat summer was like 2024.

• 22:33Speaker 02

  I don't, uh, see, I just-

• 22:35Speaker 01

  I mean, if you live like me, you- you all, you're always brat.

• 22:38Speaker 02

  Well, okay.

• 22:39Speaker 03

  What's something like Sabrina Carpenter-y?

• 22:42Speaker 02

  Juno.

• 22:44Speaker 01

  I mean, no.

• 22:45Speaker 02

  I don't know.

• 22:45Speaker 01

  I don't even, alright, what is it? The dictionary.com word of the year?

• 22:52Speaker 02

  No, it's not.

• 22:53Speaker 01

  Six, seven.

• 22:53Speaker 02

  No, it's not.

• 22:54Speaker 01

  Yes, it is. Yes, it absolutely is.

• 22:57Speaker 02

  That's not a word.

• 22:58Speaker 01

  I, that's why I said I don't even know where they would put this.

• 23:02Speaker 02

  It's six, seven?

• 23:03Speaker 01

  Six, seven, the meme that has captured the internet's attention in late 2025 has been named the word of the year by dictionary.com. Over the years, plenty of internet slang terms have started being used in everyday life. A number of these have been born out of TikTok and Twitch, including riz, skibitty, brain rot, and ratioed.

• 23:20Speaker 01

  We're dying.

• 23:21Speaker 02

  Six, seven, bro?

• 23:23Speaker 01

  Even though they're used in everyday life, not all these terms are going to make it into the dictionary. A few have been, though, recognized for their cultural impact and how quickly they've become widespread. Six, seven, which was born from rapper Skrilla and his song Do-

• 23:37Speaker 01

  What?

• 23:38Speaker 02

  I just love the way you're like- Sounds like- It's like I'm listening to the news report it, you know?

• 23:43Speaker 01

  Uh, and his song Doot Doot, which-

• 23:46Speaker 02

  Whoa!

• 23:47Speaker 01

  Crazy that he stole that from us. We have, there's another double-

• 23:52Speaker 01

  Uh, has become the latest of those being awarded word of the year.

• 23:55Speaker 02

  Wow. Those are numbers.

• 23:57Speaker 01

  Most other two-digit numbers had no meaningful trend over the period implying that there is something special about six, seven. Shows the speed at which a new word can rocket around the world as a rising generation enters the global conversation.

• 24:10Speaker 02

  I hate when like they take something fun and do that. No two, no other two numbers was significantly-

• 24:16Speaker 01

  I thi- I could think of two.

• 24:17Speaker 02

  No other two numbers?

• 24:19Speaker 01

  I could think of two.

• 24:22Speaker 02

  Nine eleven?

• 24:23Speaker 01

  Oh, those are-

• 24:23Speaker 02

  Not what I meant. I thought that's where you were going.

• 24:26Speaker 01

  I didn't think it was-

• 24:27Speaker 02

  What numbers did you think?

• 24:28Speaker 01

  Sixty-nine? I mean, sixty-nine's been around since the fucking like-

• 24:32Speaker 02

  Sixty-nine, nine eleven, what else?

• 24:35Speaker 01

  Four twenty?

• 24:36Speaker 02

  Four twenty?

• 24:37Speaker 01

  Four twenty.

• 24:37Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 24:38Speaker 01

  Uh, but this raised the question. What does six, seven actually mean?

• 24:45Speaker 02

  Oh god, we can't go down this road.

• 24:46Speaker 01

  I, like, no-

• 24:47Speaker 02

  There is no meaning.

• 24:48Speaker 01

  We, as the basement yard, Joey- Not only are we, we have a responsibility as the sexiest podcast on the planet-

• 24:57Speaker 01

  To, in the year of our lord, 2025, Figure out, for our fans, for the people at large, what six, seven exactly means.

• 25:07Speaker 02

  There is no meaning.

• 25:09Speaker 01

  I mean, there has to be.

• 25:12Speaker 03

  No.

• 25:12Speaker 01

  So it's just, it's just, it's just, yeah. The, nothing? There has to be, I mean, it has to stem from something. What did Skrilla say?

• 25:21Speaker 03

  The hardest thing to explain about six, seven to my parents was how it means nothing. It's like, an impossible thing to explain.

• 25:28Speaker 01

  So like, is it like, the idea of like, if someone asks you like, "Oh, like, how do you feel right now on a scale of one to 10?" You're like, "Ah, like, six, seven."

• 25:36Speaker 02

  Yeah, like, you could do it like that.

• 25:38Speaker 01

  I know I could do it like that, because those are numbers and in numerical sense.

• 25:41Speaker 02

  Well, that's, like, that's, yeah.

• 25:43Speaker 01

  So is, is the meaning of six, seven, that it's just like, fig- like, I, I don't know, like, a little here?

• 25:50Speaker 02

  It's become a meme within a meme, to my understanding.

• 25:53Speaker 01

  Okay, that doesn't mean anything.

• 25:55Speaker 02

  It, (laugh) I didn't realize that, that's what I'm saying, though. Where it's like, it started as a meme, like, I bel- I, from what I know, there was like this kid, and like, he did it at a game, like a basketball game. And he like, did this thing with his hands and said, "Six, seven," and then everyone was like, making fun of this kid. And then it just became like a meme, so if they would ask like, other kids like, you know, or they'd be interviewing, uh, athletes. And they'd be like, "Yeah, at half, I had like, six, seven point," like, it just became like a meme.

• 26:26Speaker 01

  Okay, but, but-

• 26:27Speaker 02

  And now it's just kinda meaningless.

• 26:28Speaker 01

  But all memes,

• 26:31Speaker 01

  if we go back to the earliest existence of memes, which a lot of them stemmed from Rage comics, um-

• 26:38Speaker 02

  What?

• 26:38Speaker 01

  You don't remember those Rage comment, uh, comics?

• 26:41Speaker 02

  Where is that?

• 26:42Speaker 01

  Where, like, where so many of those like, you know, like, faces came from, the like, you know, stuff like that. They were like,

• 26:48Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 26:49Speaker 01

  Early 2010s. Um, which the earliest onset of memes-

• 26:54Speaker 02

  Talk like a human.

• 26:55Speaker 01

  (laugh) There's something hysterical about like, someone eventually is going to do like, like, teach a sociology class in like, 2058.

• 27:06Speaker 02

  Hundred percent.

• 27:06Speaker 01

  And just be like, "So here is where we saw the earliest onset of the memes."

• 27:10Speaker 02

  Yeah, like, ugh.

• 27:12Speaker 01

  Misco- you know, mislabeled memes. Didn't Keith use that? Didn't he call them memes?

• 27:17Speaker 02

  He called it like, "Meme." He's like, "Yeah, I saw this meme," I was like, "Let me stop you there."

• 27:22Speaker 01

  You just gotta cut it out. But like, all of the memes, they mean something, but they are just like-

• 27:31Speaker 01

  Like masking it is like, it means this, but it also means like, it's just another way of saying it. Like when you see the meme of like, give me a popular meme.

• 27:43Speaker 02

  I mean, yo dude, I'll be honest with you, a lot, a lot of the memes that I like are like so meaningless. I went down this rabbit hole one time and, cause you know, once you like, like a video, it's like, it's just sent to you all the time. But it was just the sound of pipes. Bro, it was just the sound of pipes.

• 28:02Speaker 01

  Like things hitting pipes?

• 28:04Speaker 02

  Just pipes.

• 28:05Speaker 01

  But like pipes have, they have to, they don't make sounds.

• 28:07Speaker 02

  Like if you threw a pipe.

• 28:08Speaker 01

  So something hitting a pipe?

• 28:09Speaker 02

  Yeah, or, or yeah, just like throwing a pipe, but it was like a bunch of pipes crashing into each other, basically. And it would just be like a regular video and then all of a sudden you would hear that and then slowly like fade into a picture of one pipe and it killed me. Exactly, but that's, but that literally was like, it just made me laugh.

• 28:30Speaker 01

  But I think if you think of like memes, like you think of like the, like the baby that's like, you know, you know what baby I'm talking about?

• 28:37Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 28:37Speaker 01

  Or you think of like sad Brian, you remember that one? Where it was like.

• 28:41Speaker 02

  These are like throwbacks.

• 28:42Speaker 01

  Okay.

• 28:43Speaker 03

  More than 10 years.

• 28:44Speaker 01

  Yeah, like this is insane. Alright, but I'm using those as an example, or like the guy that's like typing at the computer like, you know what I'm talking about?

• 28:52Speaker 02

  Oh, like this is fine and the house is.

• 28:53Speaker 01

  Yeah, or like, no, no, no, the, like the old man with the like full beard and he's like,

• 28:58Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 28:58Speaker 01

  You know, or the one of Scarlett Johansson from that movie Marriage Story where she's like, where it's like how your email is finding me like.

• 29:05Speaker 02

  Have you been on a computer in like 10 years or?

• 29:09Speaker 01

  I'm saying memes, they gave a feeling to something that otherwise doesn't have a definition. Like there is a meaning, it's just, it's, it's something that we have not been able to put a word to, so people put an image to it.

• 29:24Speaker 02

  But there's comedy in zero meaning, in the, in the same way that like. The pipes thing, like would make me laugh. I would send it to Pete all the time. It would just be pipes.

• 29:34Speaker 03

  Or the like, the Italian brain rot craze.

• 29:37Speaker 02

  I never, I don't understand that shit.

• 29:39Speaker 01

  That I don't think, what you're explaining is not a meme. It's just a stupid thing that someone does. Like a meme, if we could actually seriously look up the definition of a meme, I feel like it is-

• 29:49Speaker 02

  We shouldn't, we shouldn't.

• 29:50Speaker 01

  I should.

• 29:51Speaker 02

  We should not.

• 29:51Speaker 01

  I feel like it's like-

• 29:52Speaker 02

  What's gonna, what's, who, like, what do you?

• 29:54Speaker 01

  Uh, because I'm trying to explain that this is not a meme, it's just a thing that someone says. Like if we're thinking about a meme, a meme is representative of a feeling, a thought, an emotion.

• 30:04Speaker 02

  Why are you trying to like, put parameters on memes?

• 30:06Speaker 01

  Yes I am, because I am someone of, of high status.

• 30:09Speaker 02

  It is a-

• 30:11Speaker 02

  It's just like an internet inside joke kinda, that's pretty much it.

• 30:14Speaker 03

  An, an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another.

• 30:20Speaker 02

  I don't even know what that means.

• 30:21Speaker 01

  I, I think I'm wrong.

• 30:24Speaker 02

  I think it's just, it's just like an inside joke, I don't know. Dude, the pipes though.

• 30:28Speaker 01

  The pi, that's such a stupid-

• 30:30Speaker 02

  It's so dumb, I literally, I'm just gonna type one thing into Instagram and just try to see-

• 30:34Speaker 01

  I guess memes existed before the internet. Like, do you remember when you and I would just be like,

• 30:41Speaker 01

  I don't know if, this is such a deep cut, I don't even know if you're gonna remember this, but we'd be like, "Yeah alright, I'm gonna go to this store."

• 30:47Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah. But lis, listen, this is the pipes.

• 30:53Speaker 02

  So that's the pipe sound, right? So there'd be a regular video playing, just a regular, regular video. And then you'd hear that, and then just a picture of like, not even the background cropped out, just that. Look at this picture.

• 31:09Speaker 02

  It's just that. Like, it's just the stupidest thing. Exactly, exactly. That's why it's funny to me. Cause like, what the, who the fuck thought of that?

• 31:19Speaker 01

  But also like, come on, you know, like-

• 31:21Speaker 02

  It'd be like a scene from Spider-Man, not even a funny scene, just talking, all of a sudden you'd hear the pipes, and then the pipe would slowly fade in. And I'm like, "Who keeps making these?" And it just, it would kill me. It had me in a chokehold for like, a summer, dude.

• 31:34Speaker 01

  That's so stupid.

• 31:35Speaker 02

  Crashing pipes.

• 31:36Speaker 01

  That's like, remember when we would just be like, "Alright," like, when someone would talk to us, and we'd be like, "Alright, cool, yeah."

• 31:41Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah.

• 31:42Speaker 01

  You know, just like, shit like that. It's just, I get the idea of like, something is so stupid, but I, I guess I always, I viewed memes as something else. Like, it's not- To me memes meant something more, okay?

• 31:54Speaker 02

  When I was a kid memes meant something.

• 31:55Speaker 01

  They meant something.

• 31:56Speaker 02

  They stood for something.

• 31:57Speaker 01

  They stood for, they stood for an emotion, something that you couldn't put words to. So what came to the rescue? A picture of a kid in a backwards brown hat and a big puffer jacket and he looked like a big douchebag.

• 32:12Speaker 02

  It's crazy, he's talking about the orig- like, very long ago memes.

• 32:16Speaker 01

  But, there's some good old school memes, well should we look at them? Should we look at old school memes?

• 32:21Speaker 02

  No, we shouldn't, but we should, no, what we should do, we should get to these ads because we do have some ads on this, on this episode. And the first one being PrizePix, okay? This episode is brought to you by PrizePix. But, listen, PrizePix, it's a lot of fun, it's easy to understand. All you're doing is competing against these PrizePix projections, which is a mouthful there. But basically, if you're watching sports, let's say you're watching football and you're watching the Chiefs. Is Travis Kelsey gonna have more or less than four and a half catches? Something like that, you would say more or less. And you do that a couple of times with different players. Is Josh Allen gonna have more or less than 205 passing yards in this game? You could pick that one too.

• 33:02Speaker 02

  And you kind of put those together and you can win a bunch of money doing that. And it's a lot of fun. So it's very simple, it's a fun experience for everybody. And you can download the PrizePix app today and use the code basement to get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup. That is code basement to get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup on PrizePix. But, it's a lot of fun, it's not only football, it's also a bunch of other sports as well. But, yeah, you can play PrizePix, like my buddies play it all the time, I've done it. And it's, it's a lot of fun. So there's football, basketball, whatever you want. Go check it out. But yeah, download the PrizePix app, use that code basement and you get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup. Alright, so enjoy that.

• 33:47Speaker 02

  Also, we have FitBod, okay? FitBod, they're gonna help you get in shape and it's awesome because it creates a personalized workout routine for you based on your goals, based on your experience and based on your available equipment. To a gym, you don't need that. If you have a couple dumbbells, that's great. So they can create a workout routine around that. Even if you don't have dumbbells, they will create something that is body weight that you can just use your own body to create a workout routine based on your fitness goals. Like, not everyone's fitness goals are the same. Some people want to get stronger, or they want to lose weight, or they, you know, want to lean out, or whatever. Whatever you want to do, they will create a workout plan for that, and the workouts adapt to your growth. So each workout is more challenging than the last, than the last, I should say.

• 34:31Speaker 02

  And it tracks your muscle recovery, so you know you don't experience burnout or anything like that. So they're along for the ride. And also, one of the coolest things, I think, is there's over a thousand demonstration videos, so you can also learn a lot about certain movements and certain workouts that maybe you don't have a lot of experience. This can be an awesome learning experience for you, as well as, you know, the start of your fitness journey.

• 36:28Speaker 01

  I think we should

• 36:33Speaker 01

  come up with a bigger meme than 6-7.

• 36:37Speaker 02

  Please stop.

• 36:38Speaker 01

  I think if we can capture lightning in a bottle here on the basement.

• 36:43Speaker 02

  You're thinking about it too much.

• 36:45Speaker 01

  We can become.

• 36:46Speaker 02

  Hot dogs.

• 36:47Speaker 01

  We can have a bigger meme than 6-7. I think hot dogs were bigger than 6-7.

• 36:53Speaker 02

  No, Frank.

• 36:54Speaker 01

  They weren't.

• 36:55Speaker 02

  I actually did have a hot dog the other day.

• 36:57Speaker 01

  Oh, I had a couple.

• 36:58Speaker 02

  I went to the, the World Series game, game six. Jays lost, but.

• 37:01Speaker 01

  Traitor.

• 37:02Speaker 02

  Uh, also was able to go. Shout out to SeatGeek. Last year they sent us to the, to the World Series.

• 37:20Speaker 01

  Just want to say, just want to say, the game we went to last year was the only one the Yankees won.

• 37:24Speaker 02

  It might be us.

• 37:25Speaker 01

  It is us.

• 37:26Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 37:26Speaker 01

  You know?

• 37:27Speaker 02

  Uh, they did lose when I went to see the Jays, but is what it is. But, uh, yeah, no. Fucking awesome experience being able to do that. Uh, they like hooked it up at the last second too. Um, for, for me to go there. Took, took a plane. I was there for like 18 hours.

• 37:41Speaker 01

  So you had a dog in you?

• 37:43Speaker 02

  So I had a dog in me. I was at the game. I was like, you know what? I'm here. They're giving me this cool experience. I'm gonna experience it the way you should.

• 37:51Speaker 01

  With a dog, dog down your throat.

• 37:53Speaker 02

  I'm in the, okay. You're going crazy with the, down the throat thing. I ate it like a normal person.

• 37:58Speaker 01

  You, oh, okay. I mean, it did, there technically was a dog down your throat.

• 38:04Speaker 02

  It was chewed up.

• 38:05Speaker 01

  I don't care how the dog got there.

• 38:07Speaker 02

  Fine. Uh, but yeah, I did get a hot dog, but I also

• 38:12Speaker 02

  I ordered a, cause we were having beers.

• 38:15Speaker 01

  Ooh, alright.

• 38:16Speaker 02

  So I was like, yeah, we're having some beers at the baseball game and whatever. And then, uh, I was like, I'm gonna switch it up. You know, I'm gonna get something, you know.

• 38:24Speaker 01

  Nasty, something filthy.

• 38:26Speaker 02

  Yeah, or, or I don't know, something cool, I don't know.

• 38:28Speaker 01

  What'd you get?

• 38:28Speaker 02

  So I see this thing.

• 38:29Speaker 01

  Halloween drink?

• 38:30Speaker 02

  No, it wasn't.

• 38:32Speaker 01

  Halloween. Yo, I forgot about that story. That's a year, a year ago.

• 38:35Speaker 02

  Um. There was something on the menu, it was called like a Manganata or something like that.

• 38:40Speaker 01

  Ooh.

• 38:41Speaker 02

  Like, and just perked up. Um, but I was like, I was like, oh, what is this? Um, what, what is this drink? Like, is it like a, cause there was this, um, like rum in it or something and some other shit? So I was, is this like a margarita? And the guy's like, yeah, kinda, it's like a, like a frozen margarita, something like that. I was like, okay, cool, I'll do one of those. Bro, this thing shows up.

• 39:03Speaker 01

  It, it fucking.

• 39:05Speaker 02

  Bro. It's.

• 39:07Speaker 01

  This big?

• 39:08Speaker 02

  Yeah. It's like red and yellow overflowing in the cup. Giant straw and a lime, right?

• 39:17Speaker 01

  Woo!

• 39:18Speaker 02

  Ordered it from a dude, a girl who works there was. Comes over to us and goes, like this, Manganata?

• 39:29Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 39:30Speaker 02

  Like, no one orders this.

• 39:31Speaker 01

  You were such a fucking pussy to her in that moment.

• 39:36Speaker 02

  Bro, she literally was like, Manganata? And I was like, that's me, and we were dying, dude. Also, sweetest thing I've ever had in my life, had two sips and I was like, I don't know if I can have the rest of this.

• 39:47Speaker 01

  Like, I imagine it was like a mango strawberry type.

• 39:50Speaker 02

  It was, I, I, yeah, like now looking back.

• 39:52Speaker 01

  Or was the red just like grenadine?

• 39:54Speaker 02

  No, cause you know how like mangoes also have that red in it? It was kinda like that.

• 39:57Speaker 01

  Let me be very clear about something. I have never had a mango outside of the skin on the outside. That has any amount of red in it.

• 40:05Speaker 02

  Like near the center, it's like kinda red a little bit by the pit.

• 40:08Speaker 01

  My brother in arms.

• 40:09Speaker 02

  Wait, am I thinking of a different thing?

• 40:10Speaker 01

  You have not had a mango. You're thinking of peach.

• 40:14Speaker 02

  No, okay, yeah, I am. I'm thinking of peach, but it looked like that, like, you know, it looked like peach colors.

• 40:20Speaker 03

  The lime is confusing.

• 40:22Speaker 01

  I mean, no, that makes sense, you know. I'm sure there was tequila in there, tequila lime is, is a pairing at a time as old as time.

• 40:28Speaker 02

  Yeah, spaghetti meatball.

• 40:29Speaker 01

  Spaghetti meatball, macaroni cheese.

• 40:31Speaker 02

  Lemon tuna fish.

• 40:31Speaker 03

  Does Toronto have a Toronto dog? Like, do they like put poutine on it or something?

• 40:35Speaker 02

  No, but they were, they were selling poutine and I saw a bunch of people getting it.

• 40:39Speaker 01

  Ooh, fuck you, by the way, it's Putin. Damn, that's crazy, that's. Putin, I heard it's.

• 40:46Speaker 02

  Oh, shit too, if I say it another, will he appear?

• 40:51Speaker 02

  Till you say Putin three times, he pops up.

• 40:53Speaker 01

  I know, I heard, I heard, I think Mikey was the one that told me that he was just like, it's not poutine, it's Putin. It's Putin.

• 41:00Speaker 02

  Really?

• 41:01Speaker 01

  We'd have to ask him, I'm pretty sure, because I, I.

• 41:04Speaker 02

  I mean, if, if you completely grabbed that at FNAIR, that'd be interesting.

• 41:08Speaker 01

  If, I'm gonna be honest with you, if I am misremembering that, I'm concerned about my mental wellbeing.

• 41:13Speaker 02

  Same.

• 41:13Speaker 01

  Because I can remember having a conversation with him and him telling me that, and if this is a, a creation of my delusion, we have a serious problem.

• 41:21Speaker 02

  We have a problem on our hands. But I will say that, uh,

• 41:26Speaker 02

  the game was like an awesome experience, especially in Toronto. They give so, they give a fuck, dude. Everyone on the street was wearing a jersey. Like, it was just like a cool.

• 41:34Speaker 01

  It must be cool, and I don't know if you, like, have thought about this, but like, it must be cool to live in a city where there is one MLB team.

• 41:43Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 41:43Speaker 01

  One NFL team, one NHL team, one NBA team.

• 41:48Speaker 02

  Yeah, like, I mean.

• 41:49Speaker 01

  Because like, here.

• 41:51Speaker 02

  There's two for everything.

• 41:53Speaker 01

  Yankees, Mets, and then it's Nets, Knicks, and then, you know, like, the only sport, major, I, I, I don't know if it's yet considered a major sport by most people, but like, the only, like, sport that has one team is the Liberty, the WNBA. Everyone else has two or three.

• 42:11Speaker 02

  And so, and New York is also one of those cities that a lot of people move to, so you don't get like, the entire, I mean, other than honestly, I feel like Knicks fans are like, everyone's a Knicks fan. Like, I don't think there's a lot of Net fans in New York.

• 42:23Speaker 01

  I think there's more Net fans than you realize.

• 42:26Speaker 02

  There's, I mean, I think if, percentage wise, like, way more of New Yorkers are Knicks fans than they are Net fans.

• 42:30Speaker 01

  Sure, but, well, they've also, like, the Nets were in Jersey for thirty years.

• 42:34Speaker 02

  Well, that's why it kind of feels like that. Like, everything else feels sort of like split. But that one feels like, whatever. But, the, but yeah, like, being in a city like that where everyone, like, cares about this so much, everyone's fucking, you know, whatever.

• 42:47Speaker 01

  Yeah, that's gotta be pretty cool. Like, I don't remember where, if, like, I can't really remember, like, us being on tour, and like, any of the, like, cities, like, had their team, and they were like, ride or die for that team.

• 43:02Speaker 02

  Well, when we were in Austin, we went to that, the University of Texas game.

• 43:05Speaker 01

  I'm not talking college, because who fucking, like.

• 43:09Speaker 02

  Dude. They give a fuck.

• 43:11Speaker 01

  Dude, you wanna hear something funny?

• 43:13Speaker 02

  I think they care more about the college team.

• 43:15Speaker 01

  When we were in Austin, I got Becca a Longhorns hat.

• 43:19Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 43:19Speaker 01

  Because last year, anytime we went somewhere, I got her a hat from that place, you know? And we were out yesterday at a child's birthday party. And her and I, like, the kids were like playing and we were sitting near the window. And someone walks up to the window. And I think they're gonna point to me, you know?

• 43:39Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 43:39Speaker 01

  You know, just, cuz, cuz I'm the sexiest podcaster in the world.

• 43:42Speaker 02

  Right, exactly.

• 43:43Speaker 01

  And looks at Becca. Well, first, he walked by and then doubled back. Knocks on the window and goes.

• 43:55Speaker 02

  Horns down?

• 43:56Speaker 01

  Horns down to her and she was like, cuz she didn't know what the fuck and I was just like, "You don't realize what you just did." And she's like, "I don't get it." And I was like, "They did horns down." I was like, "People get like shot and in fights for shit like that."

• 44:08Speaker 02

  They threw a horns down at a woman.

• 44:10Speaker 01

  Dude, didn't, like, didn't Vince Young get into a fight cuz someone did horns down to him or something like that?

• 44:16Speaker 02

  I mean, I imagine. They love Vince Young, too.

• 44:20Speaker 01

  Well, he's like a big, like, in the Austin area, he's, he's big over there.

• 44:24Speaker 02

  Bro, he gave him a natty. They fucking, he's god.

• 44:27Speaker 01

  Well, have they won since?

• 44:30Speaker 02

  Texas? I don't know. They have Archie now. All I know is that game was like, fucking unbelievable.

• 44:36Speaker 01

  I mean, I remember that game. It was them, USC, and it was Vince Young versus Reggie Bush.

• 44:40Speaker 02

  Crazy.

• 44:40Speaker 01

  Two thousand and six, I wanna say.

• 44:41Speaker 02

  Um.

• 44:42Speaker 01

  But, yeah, dude, he, he doubled back.

• 44:45Speaker 02

  That's so funny.

• 44:46Speaker 01

  To tell my poor wife, two thousand and five, okay.

• 44:48Speaker 02

  Horns down.

• 44:49Speaker 01

  To tell my poor wife, who knows nothing about, and like, I'm not saying like I know much.

• 44:54Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 44:54Speaker 01

  But like, I knew that what he was doing was like.

• 44:57Speaker 02

  Fuck you.

• 44:57Speaker 01

  Fuck you, basically. It was just like a crazy interaction.

• 45:02Speaker 02

  That's how much they care, dude. It was awesome, but.

• 45:04Speaker 01

  Have you been to stadiums that like, like, you remember like their signature food or drink was like bananas?

• 45:12Speaker 02

  I, I don't indulge at games like that. I usually just go for like the chicken tenders and fries. I did get a hot dog, just because I was like, yo, I'm in this bitch and it, it's the World Series. Gotta dog it.

• 45:24Speaker 01

  Dog me up.

• 45:25Speaker 02

  Got a Manganata in there. I don't know if I'll go back for the Manganata.

• 45:30Speaker 01

  I will say, last time we went to a baseball game together, not the last time we went together, but there was a game we went to, I think last year or the year before, and you, in your seat, ordered a spicy marg at a Yankee game. And I was like, this just feels wrong.

• 45:43Speaker 02

  I mean, you know.

• 45:44Speaker 01

  It just felt weird, like, that's like...

• 45:48Speaker 02

  Joe shake ass for a spicy marg.

• 45:50Speaker 01

  I would. No one is hornier for a spicy marg than this dude over here.

• 45:53Speaker 02

  I like a spicy marg. That's why I ordered that. I thought it was a spicy marg, but it wasn't. It was a big tropical drink and, you know, the girl was rightfully confused and, you know, it was a, it was a good experience and a good memory and I, and I won't forget it. And thank you again, Taseki, because that was really fucking cool that you were, you know, able to get me tickets to the World Series again.

• 46:14Speaker 01

  Yeah, that is, uh...

• 46:15Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 46:15Speaker 01

  Now you gotta go next year when it's no one versus no one because of the lockout. That's an inside baseball reference, literally inside baseball reference. Like, it could not be more actual inside baseball.

• 46:27Speaker 02

  Inside of the baseball.

• 46:28Speaker 01

  Yeah, so, well, good for you. I'm glad, I'm glad you had a good time.

• 46:31Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 46:31Speaker 01

  I was getting, my wife was getting yelled at for wearing a Longhorns hat.

• 46:34Speaker 02

  Dude, that is so funny, horns downing.

• 46:36Speaker 01

  Literally, he was just like, "Yeah."

• 46:39Speaker 02

  Good god. Yeah, no, that's not...

• 46:42Speaker 01

  It was like violent.

• 46:44Speaker 02

  Ohhhhh. Ant question, ant question, he has a question and they are from him. Ant question, ant question, he's got a question, let's see it now, bitch.

• 50:06Speaker 02

  That is a new updated version.

• 50:07Speaker 01

  That's a new update, we need to write like a full version of it. So it could be like, didn't he's a ballad version of it? Just like, "Ant question, got a question that he's gonna ask."

• 50:19Speaker 02

  You're ruining it.

• 50:20Speaker 01

  "Ant question."

• 50:22Speaker 02

  You're still going.

• 50:24Speaker 03

  You hit it on the back end a little bit there.

• 50:25Speaker 01

  I know, well like, see, this is the thing, if you leave me alone.

• 50:31Speaker 02

  I have to reel you in, you'll run around the yard for an hour.

• 50:35Speaker 01

  I will.

• 50:35Speaker 02

  We won't even be able to talk on this podcast.

• 50:37Speaker 03

  You'll track mud into the house.

• 50:38Speaker 01

  I've been described by my wife as a chocolate lab that just runs on hardwood. And I think that's...

• 50:44Speaker 02

  They just, you're not going to...

• 50:45Speaker 01

  And I just, I think that's accurate.

• 50:47Speaker 02

  That's a great, uh...

• 50:50Speaker 02

  Damn it.

• 50:51Speaker 03

  I gotcha. Um, so here's the question. Would you rather fight 100 blood lusted 95 year olds, or 100 blood lusted 3 year olds?

• 51:00Speaker 02

  Let's get this out of the way first. Blood lusted, meaning zombie?

• 51:04Speaker 01

  Are they Dracula?

• 51:05Speaker 02

  They wanna suck our blood, or they're just, they just wanna kill?

• 51:08Speaker 01

  They just wanna fucking suck our fucking blood so much, like through a straw or something?

• 51:12Speaker 03

  They wanna kill.

• 51:13Speaker 02

  They wanna kill.

• 51:14Speaker 01

  Oh, so the bloodlust is just in like a sense of like, they need to murder?

• 51:18Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 51:18Speaker 02

  Nice.

• 51:19Speaker 03

  They'll do anything to get ya.

• 51:20Speaker 02

  I mean, which one would I rather fight?

• 51:22Speaker 03

  That's the question.

• 51:23Speaker 02

  I'mma say 3 year olds. Bro, I'm like an unlimited amount of 3 year olds. How much space do I have? Do I have the earth? Cause they're definitely not getting me.

• 51:31Speaker 03

  It's like an empty field.

• 51:33Speaker 02

  Empty field?

• 51:34Speaker 01

  I'm crushing them. And, what do I have at my disposal? Is it anything I can find? Like if I dig up a rock?

• 51:40Speaker 03

  If you can dig up a rock, sure, but from base, it's a fisticuffs.

• 51:45Speaker 01

  Bro. Here's the, this is what's tough.

• 51:47Speaker 02

  I didn't even consider weapons.

• 51:49Speaker 01

  Here's what's tough.

• 51:52Speaker 01

  A hundred year olds seems like it'd be the easier one because like I can tire out a hundred year old. So fucking quickly or ninety five year old, is that what you said?

• 52:01Speaker 02

  Ninety five, I don't know if those five years.

• 52:02Speaker 01

  Tomato, tomato, at that point, the five years.

• 52:04Speaker 02

  They're already tired.

• 52:05Speaker 01

  Yeah. I have to sneeze.

• 52:08Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 52:11Speaker 02

  Which one did you pick? I realize you're trying to sneeze.

• 52:17Speaker 01

  Alright, sorry.

• 52:20Speaker 01

  See, I could tire out a ninety five year old, a hundred ninety five year olds by just jogging in a circle for five seconds. You know how difficult it is to tire out a five year old, a seven year old?

• 52:29Speaker 02

  I'm not worried about tiring out the three year old.

• 52:31Speaker 01

  A three year old, dude, you should be worried about that.

• 52:34Speaker 02

  Really? I bet, I bet a swift kick to the head would. They're blood lusted, I'm not saying I would do that, but I'm saying.

• 52:40Speaker 03

  They are blood lusted.

• 52:41Speaker 01

  I think, I think I'm gonna go with the three year olds because the ninety five year olds have lived enough of life to have a sense of like strategy, like they might be able to say like, yo, if we band together and work a certain way, we can get this done. The three year olds, it's anarchy.

• 52:57Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah.

• 52:58Speaker 01

  They don't know what the hell they're doing, they don't even know that they're a part of a community.

• 53:01Speaker 02

  They may just like be stopping and talking to each other at one point.

• 53:03Speaker 01

  Yeah, and they might be picking dandelions and stuff, like unless they're given like a rage virus of some sort.

• 53:08Speaker 03

  Yeah, blood lusted.

• 53:09Speaker 02

  Oh yeah, they are blood lusted.

• 53:10Speaker 03

  Forget, don't forget about the blood lust.

• 53:11Speaker 02

  I will say, I think just from a pure weight standpoint, like a ninety five year old is gonna weigh more than a three year old, so like.

• 53:18Speaker 01

  That's true.

• 53:19Speaker 02

  You know, eventually the ninety five year olds, all they have to do is like fall on top of me. And like eventually I'm, it's a wrap.

• 53:24Speaker 01

  But also the three year olds, like you're gonna like, listen, I can outrun a three year old.

• 53:30Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 53:31Speaker 01

  I do it every other day, if not every day. But you have to move quicker, like I can just briskly walk in the same direction for ten minutes and I will out. Like I will get half these ninety five year olds, and listen, I'm not saying they're like freak, like still in great shape, like Rita Moreno, although I don't know if she's ninety five yet. And Dick Van Dyke. But like. If I just walk and tire them out, like I don't care how bloodlusted they are, they're gonna be like crawling and then I'm just gonna stomp them out with my giant feet.

• 54:03Speaker 03

  Well, I have a question. Imagine like these two scenarios in terms of zombies, like would you like a charging three-year-old zombie, I feel like is scarier than a charging ninety-five-year-old zombie.

• 54:16Speaker 02

  You're bugging.

• 54:17Speaker 03

  No?

• 54:17Speaker 02

  Like an old zombie?

• 54:19Speaker 01

  I'm kinda with you on that.

• 54:20Speaker 03

  That's not as like, I feel like-

• 54:21Speaker 02

  Bro, they could be the same, they could be bigger than me.

• 54:23Speaker 03

  I know, but like a little one coming at you is-

• 54:26Speaker 02

  Oh, from a fear standpoint?

• 54:28Speaker 03

  I feel like they're harder to-

• 54:30Speaker 01

  Also, I have like played, like played with my, like two, all three of them are basically three years old at one point, so like I have experience playing with three three-year-olds.

• 54:42Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 54:43Speaker 01

  They can hurt you. Like, it's not just like because they're so small, like I've been kicked in the fucking balls.

• 54:49Speaker 02

  That's because you're, you're like playing nice though. Like if you, like if it was like, yo, me or you, it's a wrap.

• 54:55Speaker 01

  But also like, yo, you would be surprised how quick kids are.

• 54:59Speaker 02

  Three-year-olds are dense.

• 55:01Speaker 03

  Mm-hmm.

• 55:02Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah. You know, like I, my nephew at three years old, you know, it, I feel like it would be punching like a bowling ball or something like that. I'd probably hurt my hand.

• 55:17Speaker 03

  Looking for the average weight of a three-year-old. Average weight of a three-year-old-

• 55:20Speaker 01

  Three-year-old's like forty pounds?

• 55:21Speaker 03

  It's twenty-six to thirty-eight pounds.

• 55:23Speaker 02

  Okay. Twenty-six pounds, never mind. Bring them on.

• 55:27Speaker 01

  No, I, I think, I think you are like-

• 55:30Speaker 02

  Also, if I get cornered? You'd rather the three-year-olds, dude.

• 55:34Speaker 03

  If you get cornered, this seems like a bad strategy.

• 55:36Speaker 01

  If I get cornered, I'm taking the ninety-five-year-olds. I rip their arms out of their socket because they're falling off anyways.

• 55:41Speaker 02

  I would throw up.

• 55:42Speaker 01

  And I would just fucking, you know, like-

• 55:45Speaker 03

  You might catch one that had some military experience though. It doesn't matter how old they are.

• 55:49Speaker 01

  Yeah, but I don't care, like, they can fight. No, they, bro, they're ninety-five, I'm sorry, like even in the best shape at ninety-five, like they're not beating a thirty-three-year-old Frankie.

• 56:01Speaker 02

  Dude, I don't think, yeah, but a three-year-old won't even know what to do. I feel like he would run at me and then what, what's he gonna do?

• 56:06Speaker 01

  Scratch and claw.

• 56:08Speaker 03

  Go for your eyes, maybe?

• 56:09Speaker 01

  Go for your eyes.

• 56:09Speaker 02

  Go for my, how they getting to my eyes?

• 56:11Speaker 01

  Bro, they're gonna, like, they don't even need to like, here's the thing.

• 56:15Speaker 02

  I wear long sleeves.

• 56:16Speaker 01

  Okay, I'm not saying, like, it's not necessarily a zombie thing, but like if a three-year-old runs at you and just grabs your leg and holds on to it, like-

• 56:26Speaker 01

  Then another one, and then another one, and then another one.

• 56:28Speaker 02

  I can just back up.

• 56:29Speaker 01

  You have more of a chance of them dogpiling you than the 95 year olds, without a doubt.

• 56:36Speaker 03

  If I threw my shoe as hard as I possibly can at a 95 year old.

• 56:40Speaker 02

  I mean, any of these.

• 56:42Speaker 01

  Hold on.

• 56:42Speaker 03

  The three year old's going down.

• 56:44Speaker 01

  Watch this, watch this. You wanna see how I'm getting away from 95 year old?

• 56:53Speaker 03

  Thank you.

• 56:56Speaker 02

  Yeah. I mean, a 90, 95 year olds can probably like.

• 56:59Speaker 03

  Yeah, they're blood lusted.

• 57:01Speaker 01

  The aver- we can't go off of like.

• 57:02Speaker 02

  They're blood lusted, yeah.

• 57:04Speaker 03

  Oh, they're lusting, they're lusting.

• 57:06Speaker 01

  They're lusting for blood. We have to go off of the average 95 year old. We can't go off of like 95 year olds that are like running marathons and shit like that.

• 57:14Speaker 02

  I mean, bro, the average 95 year old in, in Europe's probably like, not that bad.

• 57:18Speaker 01

  We didn't specify where they are.

• 57:21Speaker 02

  We're saying average of the earth.

• 57:23Speaker 03

  The average 95 year old is about 166 pounds.

• 57:28Speaker 02

  That's heavy dude. That's a heavy purse.

• 57:31Speaker 01

  Heavy?

• 57:32Speaker 03

  It's big, man.

• 57:33Speaker 01

  That's like, super lightweight.

• 57:34Speaker 02

  I, yeah, I know, but it's, it's, it's less than 25. That's like a Pomeranian.

• 57:41Speaker 03

  Did you catch?

• 57:41Speaker 01

  Pomeranians are like, 5 pounds.

• 57:44Speaker 02

  I would, I would, I'm not taking the Pomeranians. I would take both of these over the Pomeranians. I'm dead.

• 57:50Speaker 01

  Because they're fast.

• 57:50Speaker 02

  They're very fast.

• 57:51Speaker 01

  They're very fast. They're faster than both of those.

• 57:53Speaker 02

  You, you make a good point that the children could, are, can a three year old run? Like, run?

• 57:58Speaker 01

  Yeah, dude.

• 57:59Speaker 02

  But can they, they'd fall still, no?

• 58:00Speaker 01

  They could, I mean, like, it, it depends on the.

• 58:03Speaker 02

  Like, they wouldn't be able to run down a street without falling.

• 58:06Speaker 01

  I mean, yeah, they can. Maeve does it all the time. Every now and then she trips, but like, for the most part, she runs and like, runs.

• 58:14Speaker 02

  Also, children get tired quickly.

• 58:17Speaker 01

  Not nearly, bro.

• 58:20Speaker 02

  Running, running, though, running! Like, I know they get tired, like, oh, we're playing, and I'm so crazy.

• 58:23Speaker 01

  Children have way more energy than a 95 year old, dude.

• 58:27Speaker 02

  Blood lusted!

• 58:28Speaker 01

  Blood!

• 58:28Speaker 02

  It's so much blood, lusting for it, and they love it.

• 58:31Speaker 03

  I don't know if this is a hot take. I think you might be toast either way. I don't know if you can do it.

• 58:38Speaker 02

  I don't know either.

• 58:39Speaker 01

  Ah.

• 58:40Speaker 03

  Cause even like. Doing enough damage 100 times.

• 58:44Speaker 02

  You're gonna get tired.

• 58:45Speaker 03

  Without getting dog piled or something. It's like, you are the gorilla.

• 58:48Speaker 01

  But I have a better chance of catching my breath with the 95 year olds. Cause I think I said 3 year olds originally, but I'm reverting now. I think I might go 95 year olds because, think about it. If it takes just walking in a quick, like 3 miles per hour in a direction in order to catch your breath, that's way easier than like, with kids dude, kids will not let up. I'm telling you. I fucking play fight with and play wrestle kids all the time.

• 59:14Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 59:14Speaker 03

  95 year olds can strategize though. What if they all lock arms and like,

• 59:17Speaker 01

  That's what I'm saying.

• 59:18Speaker 03

  Come at you.

• 59:19Speaker 01

  That's a problem. That's something that I,

• 59:20Speaker 02

  That's a problem. It's a huge problem.

• 59:21Speaker 01

  That's something you're right. That is.

• 59:22Speaker 02

  The strategy is big.

• 59:24Speaker 01

  Can I, could I like, well, how much money again? Or is it just,

• 59:28Speaker 03

  It's just your life.

• 59:29Speaker 01

  We're not doing this for money.

• 59:30Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 59:31Speaker 01

  Okay. What if I like, will cut off like 3 of my fingers in order to give all the 95 year olds dementia?

• 59:40Speaker 02

  What does that even mean? What does that mean?

• 59:42Speaker 03

  Wouldn't that be worse?

• 59:43Speaker 01

  It's like, it's just like, I get it like a bit of a, like an advantage.

• 59:46Speaker 02

  Oh, you're saying trade?

• 59:48Speaker 01

  Yeah. Like I'll trade 3 fingers. They, they all have dementia.

• 1:00:23Speaker 02

  I don't think that helps you at all.

• 1:00:24Speaker 03

  Yeah, I don't think that's,

• 1:00:24Speaker 01

  I think that definitely helps.

• 1:00:26Speaker 02

  I don't think it does.

• 1:00:26Speaker 01

  Yeah, because like in the middle of trying to fight me, they'd just like break out into singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow.

• 1:00:31Speaker 03

  That would be,

• 1:00:32Speaker 02

  It's a great song.

• 1:00:33Speaker 03

  That would be terrifying.

• 1:00:34Speaker 02

  That would be terrifying.

• 1:00:34Speaker 01

  That is a really good song though.

• 1:00:36Speaker 02

  I would think that it's over.

• 1:00:36Speaker 03

  Yeah, I would think something's happening. Something's wrong.

• 1:00:39Speaker 01

  They just stop and they're just like, Somewhere over the rainbow.

• 1:00:46Speaker 02

  I would probably just walk towards them. I'd be like, well, it's over now. I don't want to be.

• 1:00:49Speaker 01

  Way up high. And then they snap back into it.

• 1:00:52Speaker 02

  Yeah. Bloodlusted?

• 1:00:55Speaker 01

  Bloodlust. I forgot about the bloodlust.

• 1:00:56Speaker 02

  Yeah, you can't forget about that.

• 1:00:58Speaker 03

  I think it's a toughie.

• 1:00:59Speaker 02

  That is a toughie. I don't know if there's a right answer. I am with you in that 95-year-olds probably move slower. So you can kind of like back up and catch your breath a little more.

• 1:01:13Speaker 01

  But they will have the ability to strategize because they have 95 years of experience.

• 1:01:18Speaker 02

  Bro, think about this, though. Like if they surround you.

• 1:01:24Speaker 02

  It's kind of like, you're toast.

• 1:01:27Speaker 01

  If they surround me, I just Jerome Bettis style, lower the shoulder and run as hard as I can in one direction.

• 1:01:32Speaker 02

  But wouldn't you rather run into three-year-olds?

• 1:01:35Speaker 01

  Yeah, that's a good point. I can probably clear a couple of them.

• 1:01:38Speaker 03

  I feel like they dive at your legs and you go down. If you fall, it's over.

• 1:01:40Speaker 02

  No, I'm jumping over them like Saigon Barkley.

• 1:01:42Speaker 01

  If you fall on either of them, you're, you're, you're.

• 1:01:45Speaker 02

  Yeah, you can't go down. You can't go down. You can't.

• 1:01:47Speaker 03

  Can't go down.

• 1:01:48Speaker 01

  Because of a couple of things, mainly the bloodlust.

• 1:01:52Speaker 02

  Well, the bloodlust thing is huge. I think if, but like, think about this. Two 95-year-olds fall on your back. You ain't getting up. You need like six babies on your back and that's only how much?

• 1:02:07Speaker 02

  Like, like not even 200 pounds. I could get up.

• 1:02:10Speaker 01

  I mean, speak for yourself. I

• 1:02:13Speaker 01

  I could get up with two 160-pound 95-year-olds on my back.

• 1:02:16Speaker 03

  Is, is there an argument to them being harder to hit because smaller target?

• 1:02:21Speaker 01

  Harder to hit with your fists, sure, because you have to strike down, which takes way more energy.

• 1:02:25Speaker 02

  Uppercuts, fellas.

• 1:02:26Speaker 01

  Uppercuts, but even that's way harder.

• 1:02:31Speaker 03

  And there it goes.

• 1:02:33Speaker 01

  Funny bone? Was it hysterical? Uh, I feel like, I feel like it's harder, like uppercutting a three-year-old because you have to like, you have to like scoop it.

• 1:02:46Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's all kicks for three-year-olds. I think it's all kicks.

• 1:02:48Speaker 01

  Kicks take way more energy because your legs are heavier.

• 1:02:51Speaker 02

  Technically, am I blood lusted? Because they're coming at me. I mean, that's your choice. I would be blood lusted. I don't know.

• 1:02:59Speaker 01

  Well, I don't think you can have, I mean, I guess technically if one side is blood lusted, the other side would be in defense.

• 1:03:05Speaker 02

  I would be defensively blood lusted.

• 1:03:07Speaker 01

  You'd be defensive lusted.

• 1:03:09Speaker 02

  Yeah. What if you had a bat? Oh, my god, dude.

• 1:03:13Speaker 01

  Ooh, a vampire bat?

• 1:03:18Speaker 01

  I don't know why that was so funny to this day.

• 1:03:20Speaker 02

  Because you didn't say it correctly.

• 1:03:22Speaker 01

  I said it very correctly, vampire bat.

• 1:03:25Speaker 02

  I'm not, I'm not doing this fake pronouncing wordscape with you.

• 1:03:28Speaker 01

  What?

• 1:03:29Speaker 02

  Bat.

• 1:03:32Speaker 02

  The blood lusted is crazy, though.

• 1:03:33Speaker 01

  The blood lusted is a good point. Now,

• 1:03:38Speaker 01

  how many, if it was a million dollars per person, how many do you think you can get through?

• 1:03:46Speaker 01

  And they came one at a time, like Royal Rumble style, like they came two minutes after the next.

• 1:03:53Speaker 02

  There was a...

• 1:03:54Speaker 01

  It was like...

• 1:03:54Speaker 02

  Like hell in a cell.

• 1:03:55Speaker 01

  Hell, no, like Royal Rumble style. I had the match right.

• 1:03:58Speaker 02

  Oh, I was thinking like Elimination Chamber.

• 1:04:00Speaker 01

  Sure, I mean, yeah, but like that's only six. Royal Rumble gets up to thirty.

• 1:04:05Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, no weapons?

• 1:04:09Speaker 01

  No weapons.

• 1:04:10Speaker 02

  Damn, eventually you get tired.

• 1:04:13Speaker 01

  Sure, but like if it's one-on-one and you're tired, do you have a better chance of...

• 1:04:16Speaker 02

  I mean, we're over here arguing this. The, the number has to be all of them, no?

• 1:04:23Speaker 02

  If you send me a one-on-one with a three-year-old, I'd be out there all day.

• 1:04:29Speaker 01

  You'd be surprised.

• 1:04:30Speaker 02

  Kicking field goals. Yeah, dude.

• 1:04:31Speaker 01

  You would be surprised, dude.

• 1:04:32Speaker 02

  I'd be floored.

• 1:04:34Speaker 01

  You'd be surprised.

• 1:04:36Speaker 02

  One child can't like.

• 1:04:39Speaker 01

  Yeah, I'm not saying one.

• 1:04:40Speaker 02

  You're saying one on ones.

• 1:04:41Speaker 01

  They're not human children. They're vampire children.

• 1:04:43Speaker 02

  These are blood lusted vampires.

• 1:04:45Speaker 01

  Vampire blood lusted children because we would never, let's make this very clear.

• 1:04:50Speaker 01

  We're pacifists. We, we don't want to harm anybody.

• 1:04:52Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 1:04:52Speaker 01

  Who would we do that to?

• 1:04:54Speaker 02

  But blood lusted, you put me in a corner? You're blood lusting? I'm defending myself.

• 1:04:59Speaker 01

  What's that animal? There's an animal that if you put, if you put them in a corner, they like kill you to get out of it. I think it's any animal now that I think about it.

• 1:05:06Speaker 02

  Like a honey badger or something?

• 1:05:07Speaker 01

  No, but there's like, there's one animal that's like, ah, fuck, is it a mink? That like, if you put them in a corner and like, it's like mud around them, they'll die before they go through the mud or something like that.

• 1:05:19Speaker 02

  Oh, that is a weird one. I don't know.

• 1:05:21Speaker 03

  I know rats will eat through ya.

• 1:05:23Speaker 01

  Yeah, that was like a Japanese torture thing.

• 1:05:26Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:05:28Speaker 01

  It was just like they put a can on you and they weigh it down with a rat inside.

• 1:05:31Speaker 02

  Or they light the can on fire and the cat, the cat, the, the rat digs through your, that's gotta be the worst way to go.

• 1:05:36Speaker 01

  I mean, the, the bamboo sounds way also bad.

• 1:05:40Speaker 02

  What's the bamboo?

• 1:05:40Speaker 01

  Where they like lay you, cause bamboo is one of the fastest growing things on the planet. And they'll like lay you over a bed of like young bamboo shoots. And like, they'll lay you there and like tied up and basically the bamboo shoots will grow through your body.

• 1:05:56Speaker 02

  I have never heard that.

• 1:05:57Speaker 01

  Yeah, that's a bad one.

• 1:05:58Speaker 02

  You've heard that?

• 1:05:59Speaker 03

  I've gone through many a rabbit hole of like medieval torture, like the worst ways to go.

• 1:06:03Speaker 01

  I mean, they just use that big cranking one where they pull your arms and legs. That sounds bad.

• 1:06:07Speaker 02

  That one's bad.

• 1:06:08Speaker 01

  That sounds bad.

• 1:06:09Speaker 02

  You got any good ones?

• 1:06:09Speaker 03

  There was one where they would put you in a boat, like you, they put you in a boat and then another boat on top of you, like upside down.

• 1:06:15Speaker 02

  A boat?

• 1:06:15Speaker 03

  Yeah, boats, like little rowboats. And they would like shove honey and milk down your throat until you're like expanded and then cover you in honey and then like bugs and snakes and rats would come in and eat ya.

• 1:06:26Speaker 01

  That doesn't even make sense.

• 1:06:27Speaker 02

  Wait, I'm very confused.

• 1:06:29Speaker 03

  About.

• 1:06:31Speaker 02

  You put a boat on top of a boat?

• 1:06:31Speaker 01

  They'd feed me until I was stuffed and then they would just put me in a boat.

• 1:06:36Speaker 02

  What was the point of the boat?

• 1:06:37Speaker 03

  I think it's just like a dark place that like bugs like to go and they would just eat ya.

• 1:06:42Speaker 01

  Let me be very clear, I'm not dying from bugs on a boat.

• 1:06:45Speaker 03

  Oh man. He might be dying from bugs on a boat.

• 1:06:48Speaker 02

  He will.

• 1:06:49Speaker 01

  I don't know, I mean, someone will because they'll jump off.

• 1:06:52Speaker 02

  I will.

• 1:06:52Speaker 01

  Uh, I saw, the ones that I've seen that are terrible are like they tie people to like posts and it's like high tide rolls in.

• 1:06:59Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:07:00Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 1:07:00Speaker 01

  And then like, it like just goes above their mouth at high tide.

• 1:07:04Speaker 03

  Vlad, I think Vlad the Impaler would put you, like sit you on a s- stake. And like the stake was like really, really wide, but your body would just slowly go down it anyway.

• 1:07:17Speaker 01

  From your butt?

• 1:07:17Speaker 03

  Yeah, from your butt and then you would just like, your innards would just right up top.

• 1:07:21Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 1:07:21Speaker 03

  Sometimes, so- sometimes it would, the duller they would make them would the, is the longer that you would have to, it would take you to go down on it. So you technically want a pointy stick.

• 1:07:29Speaker 01

  That's a bad one. That's a really bad one.

• 1:07:33Speaker 02

  You're telling me if I put my butt?

• 1:07:35Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:07:36Speaker 02

  On a dull steak?

• 1:07:37Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:07:38Speaker 02

  That my butt would just accept it?

• 1:07:40Speaker 03

  Eventually it would accept it.

• 1:07:41Speaker 01

  It has to dude.

• 1:07:42Speaker 02

  Split my fucking body in half?

• 1:07:45Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:07:46Speaker 02

  Ri- uh, my body doesn't know to stop?

• 1:07:49Speaker 01

  I mean, it can, it's fighting gravity. Gravity always wins.

• 1:07:52Speaker 03

  I think they would like tie weights to your ankles.

• 1:07:55Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 1:07:56Speaker 03

  So you would uh...

• 1:07:57Speaker 02

  People are sick.

• 1:07:58Speaker 01

  There's other ones that are crazy too. I mean, the one that I heard of, I don't think this is like for like death, but it is a form of torture. That always got my skin crawling was when they would put bamboo shoots under the fingernails and they would hammer them in.

• 1:08:11Speaker 02

  You love bamboo?

• 1:08:12Speaker 03

  You do like bamboo.

• 1:08:13Speaker 01

  I don't like it. I mean, I don't mind it.

• 1:08:15Speaker 02

  I think watching pandas eat bamboo is very cute. That's as far as I go.

• 1:08:21Speaker 01

  Yeah, there's some crazy like torture stuff.

• 1:08:24Speaker 02

  The, the drop on the head.

• 1:08:26Speaker 01

  You know that? I, I can understand why that drives someone crazy, but like I tend to probably believe that I am stronger than that.

• 1:08:33Speaker 02

  You aren't. I, I bet it would be less than seven minutes of dropping on your head.

• 1:08:40Speaker 01

  I mean, we're not gonna do it, we're not gonna be those YouTubers.

• 1:08:43Speaker 02

  We could.

• 1:08:44Speaker 01

  We're not gonna be those YouTubers. There's like, alright, we tried out seven medieval testing torture techniques, you know?

• 1:08:50Speaker 02

  I, I uh, I waterboarded my, bo- uh, had, said, "Hoot."

• 1:08:56Speaker 02

  I waterboarded myself. Once.

• 1:08:59Speaker 03

  On purpose?

• 1:08:59Speaker 02

  Yeah. You ever do it?

• 1:09:02Speaker 01

  I think I have.

• 1:09:03Speaker 02

  Yo, it's, it's tough.

• 1:09:05Speaker 03

  How?

• 1:09:06Speaker 01

  I did it in the shower, I think.

• 1:09:07Speaker 03

  You put like a rag over your face and dump water on it?

• 1:09:09Speaker 02

  Yo, you cannot breathe. Like you can't take, you can't suck in anything.

• 1:09:15Speaker 01

  Look up other crazy to torture techniques. Let's be that.

• 1:09:19Speaker 03

  Why are you talking about torture?

• 1:09:21Speaker 01

  Let's be them. Let's be those podcasters.

• 1:09:24Speaker 03

  You know what I don't get?

• 1:09:25Speaker 02

  This thing.

• 1:09:26Speaker 01

  The stocks? That's just a public shaming thing.

• 1:09:28Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's like just, you know?

• 1:09:30Speaker 01

  It's just like, look at this dumbass with his bare red ass out in the middle of fucking town square.

• 1:09:34Speaker 02

  Red ass?

• 1:09:35Speaker 01

  Yeah, cuz they would like hit them with stuff.

• 1:09:36Speaker 02

  Oh, they would spank him?

• 1:09:37Speaker 01

  I think they would, right?

• 1:09:39Speaker 03

  I think that, yeah, it's just like.

• 1:09:40Speaker 02

  Uh, you were probably on a different website.

• 1:09:41Speaker 01

  No, I'm serious. I think it was like, they would like, put them in the stocks and they would have to, like, like hit them and their legs would give out.

• 1:09:49Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 1:09:50Speaker 03

  Did you see what the pirates would do?

• 1:09:51Speaker 02

  Walk the plank?

• 1:09:52Speaker 03

  Walk the plank, but then they would also like tie you and pull you underneath the boat all the way to the other side of the boat. But underneath the boat is like barnacles and.

• 1:10:01Speaker 01

  Oh, that's tough.

• 1:10:03Speaker 03

  It would, like, your body would be scraped along the bottom side of the boat.

• 1:10:06Speaker 01

  That is miserable.

• 1:10:08Speaker 03

  So you're drowning and being scraped.

• 1:10:09Speaker 02

  That's, that's.

• 1:10:10Speaker 01

  Wait, how would they do that, though? How would they get the rope? On the other side?

• 1:10:18Speaker 02

  I like that question.

• 1:10:19Speaker 01

  How would they, cuz I know they had a way of doing it, but in my head, it's old, so it's stupid?

• 1:10:25Speaker 02

  I don't know.

• 1:10:26Speaker 03

  Rope?

• 1:10:27Speaker 01

  Yeah, but like, what are they gonna be like? Like, someone swim under and grab this rope for me so we can torture this guy?

• 1:10:32Speaker 03

  If you throw the rope in front of the boat and the boat goes over it, don't you have it on both sides now?

• 1:10:37Speaker 01

  That's a big rope, though, and they had big ships.

• 1:10:40Speaker 03

  You definitely need rope that big.

• 1:10:42Speaker 01

  I don't know. I don't know. That's a crazy one. What other ones you got, Ann? I know you're a sick freak and you love this shit, you horny little fuck.

• 1:10:49Speaker 03

  You want me to look them up?

• 1:10:50Speaker 01

  Yeah, I do, actually.

• 1:10:51Speaker 02

  Walking the plank is...

• 1:10:53Speaker 01

  I mean, that's just more like...

• 1:10:55Speaker 02

  I mean, that's much better than any of the ones that we've talked about.

• 1:10:58Speaker 01

  I'll be honest with you, walking the plank, you know how I feel about the ocean. But there's a small part of me that's like, I could survive this.

• 1:11:05Speaker 02

  I, I mean, I just gotta float and hope for the best, which the, the best is probably not coming, especially back then.

• 1:11:10Speaker 01

  Oh, the one that I saw that was crazy was like, they put people in like a metal horse and they light a fire underneath it.

• 1:11:16Speaker 02

  A metal horse?

• 1:11:17Speaker 03

  Screaming bowl?

• 1:11:18Speaker 01

  Yeah, the bowl, bowl, bowl, bowl.

• 1:11:19Speaker 02

  The screaming bowl?

• 1:11:21Speaker 01

  The pair of anguish.

• 1:11:22Speaker 03

  Oh, I know this one, the pair of anguish.

• 1:11:23Speaker 02

  What's the pair of anguish?

• 1:11:25Speaker 03

  So they would put this in, uh, mouths of people that, sometimes butts, but mostly mouths of people that were like speaking wrong or like behind your back. And they would just slowly open it, like a vise, like this.

• 1:11:35Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:11:36Speaker 03

  And it would just like, essentially stop you from being able to talk and also be painful.

• 1:11:40Speaker 01

  Okay.

• 1:11:41Speaker 02

  Oh, like you would just break your jaw?

• 1:11:42Speaker 03

  Yeah, it would like slowly expand your jaw, like a, the saw.

• 1:11:44Speaker 01

  That's not cool, but like, there's no barnacles.

• 1:11:47Speaker 02

  I mean, that's fucking horrible, dude.

• 1:11:49Speaker 01

  Is that the bowl one?

• 1:11:50Speaker 03

  Yeah, this is your screaming bowl.

• 1:11:51Speaker 01

  Yeah, that one's crazy. That is like, that is unbelievably nightmarish.

• 1:11:55Speaker 03

  The guy who, um, created it for like the emperor or whatever, they tossed them in there and did it to him. Not cool.

• 1:12:02Speaker 01

  You heard of that one, right?

• 1:12:03Speaker 02

  No.

• 1:12:04Speaker 01

  So they, it's a, they build a metal bowl?

• 1:12:07Speaker 03

  Brass, big brass bowl. And they would put someone in it and then they would light a fire underneath and it would cook them. And their screams would come out of like little tiny holes in the bowl's nose and it sounded like a bowl screaming.

• 1:12:19Speaker 01

  Fucked up.

• 1:12:20Speaker 02

  Humans are disgusting.

• 1:12:21Speaker 01

  That one is fucked up. I don't like it. You heard it here first, folks.

• 1:12:24Speaker 02

  Rat torture, not into that at all.

• 1:12:26Speaker 03

  That's the thing we talked about.

• 1:12:27Speaker 02

  No.

• 1:12:28Speaker 01

  The tongue tear. They used to do that back in like ancient Egypt, right? They'd be like, you stole, gimme your tongue.

• 1:12:35Speaker 02

  Thumb screw? I have a feeling I'm gonna hate that.

• 1:12:38Speaker 03

  They would just tie your thumbs together like this, screw it in. It was just like uncomfortable. Sometimes they would put it behind their back like that.

• 1:12:44Speaker 01

  Yeah, that sucks, but.

• 1:12:45Speaker 02

  Bro, how do you know all this?

• 1:12:47Speaker 03

  A lot of rabbit holes.

• 1:12:48Speaker 01

  He's a freak.

• 1:12:49Speaker 03

  The Iron Maiden actually wasn't real, did you know that? Like, they never really-

• 1:12:52Speaker 02

  I don't know what it is to begin with!

• 1:12:53Speaker 01

  The thing from, uh, the, the, the thing from, uh, Matilda?

• 1:12:57Speaker 02

  Oh, the, the chokey?

• 1:12:58Speaker 01

  The chokey, yeah.

• 1:12:59Speaker 02

  Oh, it'd be like spikes on one end?

• 1:13:01Speaker 03

  Yeah, they never really used that, I think it was more for fear, intimidation.

• 1:13:03Speaker 02

  Got it.

• 1:13:04Speaker 01

  I mean, why not? That's a cool looking fucking thing.

• 1:13:07Speaker 03

  The heretic fork's a good one. So that what they would do is, they would tie-

• 1:13:10Speaker 01

  I love how you're talking about this, like-

• 1:13:12Speaker 02

  He knows-

• 1:13:12Speaker 01

  Oh god, this is such a cool move!

• 1:13:14Speaker 03

  So they would tie like, a kinda like a, a pitchfork, like a mini pitchfork underneath here?

• 1:13:19Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:13:19Speaker 03

  So you can't, like, you always had to look up. I think it was like a prayer thing, or like a religious thing? And every time you'd like, your neck got tired and tried to look down, it would pierce you. Not good.

• 1:13:27Speaker 01

  I saw that, like, there's like, allegedly, some military training that does that, where they like, put pins in their collars?

• 1:13:35Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:13:36Speaker 01

  And like, to like, keep the person's posture, they have to be like that, and if they go forward, it'll fucking poke them.

• 1:13:41Speaker 03

  Could be making it up, but I think it's big in the Japanese military. Like, perfect posture, and stuff like that.

• 1:13:46Speaker 02

  I love how you're not sure, but you're willing to say that.

• 1:13:50Speaker 01

  I'm not sure who it is, but I'm pretty sure it's these group of people-

• 1:13:53Speaker 02

  Pretty sure it's the Japanese!

• 1:13:54Speaker 03

  I'm about seventy-two percent sure.

• 1:13:56Speaker 01

  Seventy-two?

• 1:13:57Speaker 02

  It's not bad, uh-

• 1:13:59Speaker 03

  Sorry for the history last time, my bad. Y'all got excited?

• 1:14:01Speaker 02

  I mean, yeah, clearly-

• 1:14:02Speaker 01

  You like history? You strike me as a history guy.

• 1:14:04Speaker 03

  You gotta know where you were to know where you're going.

• 1:14:06Speaker 01

  Oh god.

• 1:14:11Speaker 02

  That's crazy. Well- There you have it, folks. Hope you enjoyed torture, toit-toit-er-

• 1:14:16Speaker 01

  Toit-toi!

• 1:14:17Speaker 02

  I hope you enjoyed-

• 1:14:18Speaker 01

  I hope you enjoyed it! I hope you enjoyed the torture tale talk! Hey guys, hope you had a good time at the basement yard!

• 1:14:27Speaker 01

  You shouldn't laugh about it.

• 1:14:29Speaker 02

  Torture?

• 1:14:30Speaker 01

  Or being able to formulate a sentence.

• 1:14:34Speaker 02

  You just didn't. Anyway, thank you guys so much for, uh, watching all the way through, we appreciate it so much. Frank, where can they find you?

• 1:14:42Speaker 01

  Frank Alvarez, the Frank Al- Don't even, it doesn't matter.

• 1:14:47Speaker 02

  You don't wanna say?

• 1:14:47Speaker 01

  It doesn't even fucking matter.

• 1:14:49Speaker 02

  Nothing matters.

• 1:14:49Speaker 01

  Nothing fucking even matters anymore.

• 1:14:51Speaker 02

  Yeah, where can they find you?

• 1:14:52Speaker 01

  I have all this fucking shit on my mind.

• 1:14:54Speaker 02
