Chuck
What's your greatest fear? Mine's sitting right here. It's me on the mic and my friend and my girl. And I gotta be right.
Benny
Diarrhea.
Chuck
Diarrhea's not what I was hoping you'd say.
Unknown Female Friend
Don't be fearless. Cause you got tears, Ms.
Chuck
Eye. Don't be fearless. Have no fear. Because this episode will take it. We'll take it all on. I think it's for this.
Benny
You know, I almost stabbed my friend to death one time.
Chuck
No, I didn't know that. How did that happen? That sounds crazy.
Benny
I'll tell you. I'll tell you. I was sleeping and it was like. I heard a noise and I was like, what the fuck? And I wake up, I like sneak out and I'm like walking around everywhere and I keep hearing noises and I'm like, holy. I'm like, okay, I gotta go to the kitchen and get a knife. Like, I have to get a knife.
Unknown Female Friend
Oh, a knife is so personal.
Benny
I was like, I have no. I have nothing else to do. What else am I gonna grab? I have nothing.
Chuck
You have no gun?
Benny
No, Chuck, I don't have a gun. I don't. I don't even know how to use a gun. I'd like shoot myself by mistake.
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah, How'd you know where the knives were? You just opened every drawer.
Benny
I'm in a kitchen. What are you talking about? There was like a butcher block. No, there's like a butcher block. And I went. And I. I grab it, okay. And then I walk like behind a thing and I'm like sitting here. And then I hear something in the kitchen and it's like. And I'm like, is that person grabbing a knife? And I'm like, holy. And I'm like. And I like, start getting like low to the ground, cuz I'm like, if I can like stab up. And I like. And I like stab up. I like sneak around. And then as I'm sneaking around, okay, I. I'm sneaking this way. My friend is thinking the same thing, okay? And he had grabbed a knife and we're both turning a corner and it's just a coin flip whether I go like right there. For some reason, I don't do it. And we go, ah. And we see each other and we did not stab each other.
Unknown Female Friend
You think if you encountered an intruder, you would. You would just stab him?
Chuck
Yeah.
Benny
Yeah. What do you mean? I have no. If I saw a man I didn't know in my home, I'd just be
Unknown Female Friend
like, oh, no, see, I wouldn't do that.
Benny
What would you do?
Unknown Female Friend
I would be like, I have a knife.
Chuck
Oh, you wouldn't.
Benny
I have a knife. He'd be like, okay, cool. Or he'd be like.
Chuck
He'd be like, what do you mean
Benny
I have a knife?
Chuck
A girl in my high school, which is like, we went to a very, you know, normal suburban town. She was just in her childhood room with like, very normal room with like, you know, the window unit, air conditioners.
Benny
Yeah.
Chuck
All of a sudden she woke up in the middle of the night and a man was just crawling through her air conditioner. Like the window area.
Benny
No.
Chuck
Yeah. She had to get out of bed. She had to kick the man out of the room, call 911. It was like they never found the guy. He ran away. It was just such a one off, crazy thing to happen in a suburban town like that.
Unknown Female Friend
Well, sometimes crime happens in the least expected place.
Benny
I think I would. I think I would. I think I would go like this.
Chuck
That's true.
Benny
I think I would say like. I think I'd be like. If I. If I was face to face with a robber and I had nothing and I was like, in my bed, I'd be like, I'd be like, I'll give you anything you want. Like, I like. We can go to the bank right. We can go to the bank right now, we can do whatever you want. Or I'd be like, I. I'd resort to. I would.
Unknown Female Friend
You would suck their dick?
Benny
Yeah, I would. 100%. Are you kidding me?
Unknown Female Friend
What if they don't want to get their dick sucked?
Chuck
Shit out of luck.
Benny
If it was an option. If they said, if the guy was like, hey man, suck my dick and I won't kill you, I would.
Unknown Female Friend
But why do you think, like any guy that breaks into your home, wants you to suck.
Benny
I don't know if he wants you to suck his dick. I'm saying just if he said if he. If he was like, hey, suck my dick or I'll kill you, I'd be like, I don't.
Chuck
I hate this topic. And I feel like your biggest fear is flying on airplanes.
Benny
Yeah, that's definitely number one.
Chuck
Like you literally have to take ships.
Benny
First of all, I prefer the bus over. I prefer the bus over flying.
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah.
Benny
But it takes so long.
Unknown Female Friend
Since Selena's in New York, it takes you three days to get to her.
Benny
I really, really, really, really. Don't like to fly.
Unknown Female Friend
2020 or 2021. We were on FaceTime with you. I remember this. You got off the plane.
Benny
Yeah.
Unknown Female Friend
With your Little roller suitcase.
Chuck
You said you were.
Benny
Yeah, I was playing snl. It was our first. So this was like, we were the second act back. It was me and Justin Bieber, and we were playing Lonely on snl, and they had a private jet to take them back. And I. I was planning. This is so out of character. Like, me, like, them just springing a thing on me, being like. Because I was just planning on taking my normal bus back home. And they were like, we got a jet, man. Just, like, get on the jet. And I was like, yeah, okay. And I was like, yeah, maybe I will. Cause it was, like, all happening so quickly. So I go to the airport, I have the bus drop me off, and I get on the plane, and everyone's like, oh, man, you did it. And, like, everyone's on the plane, and I'm sitting there, and they're, like, about to take off, and I'm like, nah. And just get off. Fully got off one time. I.
Chuck
Can I tell you a small business plan that I never saw through that is such a good idea.
Benny
Yeah. I have a great.
Chuck
Imagine a small business that is a company where you book a. You. You. You have to go to Thailand or wherever yet. You want to take a trip, they come to your house, they inject you, you wake up, you're in Thailand.
Benny
Yeah.
Chuck
Your suitcase is unpacked, and they just. They know how to medically induce you into, I guess, your kidneys. No, I mean, I guess it's not. I didn't really ever do any.
Benny
No, I wanted.
Unknown Female Friend
I wanted to get on the airplane and you look out the window. It's not just a screen.
Benny
No. I wanted to be put on.
Unknown Female Friend
And we're not. We're all just circling around and going right back where we started.
Benny
One of the last times I took a plane, somehow someone convinced me to hitch a ride from LA to Coachella. And I'm on the plane with a bunch of people, and I'm sitting next to Harry Styles.
Chuck
Okay, that must have been crazy. Go on.
Benny
I'm on the plane, I'm sitting next to Harry Styles, and he's a friend of mine. He's a really sweet guy. That's crazy.
Unknown Female Friend
Did you decide an NDA
Benny
to be his friend? No, I didn't sign an NDA to be his friend, but he's a very sweet guy. And I'm sitting next to him. We're in the air, and it starts to get a little turbulent, and the first thing he does is he looks at me and he goes, oh, no, man. He goes, I Think this is the one. I think we're going down.
Chuck
Really?
Benny
Yeah. That's the first thing he said to me.
Unknown Female Friend
Do you have a fear of flying?
Benny
No. He was joking. And I said, he was messing with you. And I go, really? And I got so scared. And it was like we were in, like. It was like, boo, boo, boo, boo,
Chuck
boo, boo, boo, boo.
Benny
And I was like. And he was like, oh, no. It made me so scared. But he also did it in a way where it made me laugh. But I was secretly petrified. And that flight's like 18 minutes long. I was petrified.
Chuck
Have you ever, as someone who's scared of flying, YouTubed, like, bad turbulence videos?
Benny
Yeah, I look at it every day. I looked at it two days ago.
Chuck
People with their iPhones are like, yep, it's my favorite. They're like, smacking against the ceiling and flying down.
Unknown Female Friend
I saw a TikTok about flying and it was trying to help you if you had trouble with flying. And it said, if you just imagine a plane in jello, that's what the pressure coming up and the pressure coming down creates. So you're not really just gonna drop out of the sky.
Benny
No, I know all the things.
Chuck
Yeah, but all it takes is a bird to go into the propeller.
Unknown Female Friend
It's not even a bird. It could really just be a number of things, the whole thing.
Benny
What about a man? What about a man who's just like a hijacker? No, just the pil. Just like. You know what? Fuck this shit. Well, you guys, he could do anything.
Chuck
Yeah. I don't like when you're in, like, a car, Even though it's way more dangerous than a flight. You feel like you can turn. Yeah.
Benny
You have a second.
Chuck
Yeah. You can have.
Benny
No second.
Chuck
No, no.
Unknown Female Friend
I think about this all the time. Driving is one of the most social activities we could do as a species. We're all just, like, trusting. Trusting one another on the road. That the only thing that's between us and death is like a painted white line.
Benny
I know, but if you're in a plane, you're like this. You're like. Like you're just.
Chuck
Yeah.
Benny
It's so loud. It's so loud.
Chuck
I have one recurring nightmare, and it is I'm sitting on a plane. It's like a peaceful flight. You hear the hum of the thing, like, four rows ahead of me. A man just looks out the window and goes, no, no, no. And then another plane smacks into the plane I'm on, takes off the front half of the plane, and it's like going like this. So it's, like on fire. And it's like this. And then it's, like going down. And then I wake up. You don't care.
Unknown Female Friend
That's rough, Chuck.
Benny
That's crazy. And you fly. Flying.
Chuck
Oh, shit. My sandwich. Oh, fuck.
Benny
Chuck. Is it okay?
Chuck
No, it's perfect. Nah, it's a little Fuck.
Benny
What do you mean it's perfect?
Chuck
Maybe I really forgot about it. Let's see, Chuck.
Benny
It's literally.
Chuck
Oh, it is perfect.
Benny
It is perfect. It's crisp.
Unknown Female Friend
Perfect joint.
Chuck
Whoops. Fuck. Do you guys know about new McCafe's bright berry blast? Do you? Well, now you do. That's foam.
Unknown Female Friend
I mean, even the way this is delectable. I love it.
Chuck
You love it? You want to talk about it? She gets excited. I'm telling you. The days that we have to do the McDonald's McCafe drinks, you get excited about guys.
Unknown Female Friend
More than excited. I live for it.
Benny
I gotta say something. This thing's like a reset. It's like a reward. It's like a way to get through the day. I mean, really, it's a reason to hang with friends.
Unknown Female Friend
Mm. It's also more than just a drink. It's special. It really is special.
Chuck
Try all the new McCafe drinks. They've done it again. They've done it again. You know what I'd like to do?
Benny
What?
Chuck
I'd like to settle the sauce argument that we had with a credible source. Yahoo Scout. Do most people make their own sauce? Yahoo Scout, first sentence. Most people rely on packaged products. Nearly 9 in 10 people use store bought sauces or marinades.
Benny
Now, Chuck, I'd like you to read the second sentence.
Chuck
However, homemade sauce usually stands at 6 in 10 people.
Benny
Thank you. Yahoo Scout. Majority rules,
Chuck
meaning both methods coexist among American households with packages.
Benny
I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear it.
Chuck
Scout.com, you, you mother.
Unknown Female Friend
Scout.com we trust you.
Chuck
Sorry. Sorry about that.
Benny
Hey, guys. You know, on our podcast.
Chuck
Not a vignette. Vignette.
Benny
On our vignette segment, you just really feel like you're like, fly on the wall in the experience of, like, hanging out.
Chuck
You broke the concept by speaking to him. I'm just kidding. I spoke to them already. Don't cut it. Don't cut it.
Benny
Cut
Chuck
switches. Medium.
Benny
Chuck, how many of these do you think I could shove in my mouth right now? How many?
Chuck
I would love to find. I mean, how many?
Unknown Female Friend
I thought you can do 15.
Benny
How many? Both. Take bets right now?
Chuck
No.
Unknown Female Friend
30.
Chuck
Wait, 30 in your mouth at once? Yeah, once you're not swallowing.
Benny
I won't swallow. Just shove.
Chuck
I think you could. I love this. And you're doing it. Yeah. I think that you could do. I think you can put like, like nine in your mouth.
Benny
Okay. And what's your.
Chuck
Do you have any idea what the answer is?
Benny
I have no idea. I've never done this before. Maybe when I was a kid. Okay, well, my mouth is grown. How many you think I can do?
Chuck
Fuck, I fucked it all up.
Benny
Or do you want to do your mouth, too, and we'll see who can do the most mouth. Okay, let's see who can. Who do you think can do more?
Chuck
I think she could do more.
Benny
Okay. Okay. And you guessed nine for me. And how many for her?
Chuck
Like 11.
Benny
Okay. Okay. Okay. She goes, one. One. No, hold on.
Chuck
No, let me just make my smorb. Two.
Benny
I'm watching. Two. Her mouth's already full. Yeah.
Chuck
Now we.
Benny
Three.
Chuck
Oh, wow.
Benny
Four. Five. Six is the best thing I've ever come up with. Six Are you.
Chuck
You're just, you're just getting started. Don't make her laugh. We can't make her laugh. It's, like, dangerous to make her laugh. You're just getting started. They can be squished like foam. You're just getting started. Don't look at us.
Benny
7. Are you.
Chuck
Do you want to stop?
Benny
Are you choking?
Chuck
No, she's all right. Keep going.
Benny
Seven. That's it. Okay, seven. So I think I'm just gonna put seven all in at once.
Unknown Female Friend
What do I do with it?
Chuck
Smart.
Benny
No, I'm not.
Unknown Female Friend
I was drooling.
Benny
Okay, so she did seven, so, Chuck, I'm just gonna go for a quick eight, okay?
Unknown Female Friend
You gotta be careful. You guys were making me laugh.
Benny
Doug, I'm going to go for a quick eight. You ready?
Unknown Female Friend
Don't choke.
Chuck
Remember, it's not you want.
Unknown Female Friend
You turn this flame off?
Benny
No, no, I just want to have more than her. This is four.
Chuck
But you're going to try to see how much you can fit.
Benny
Well, first I'm going to get eight.
Chuck
Yeah, but that's just the first step towards the larger.
Benny
I don't know how much it'll fit. She has a huge mouth. Okay, so horse mouth.
Chuck
At the end of this, we will know how many you could fit in your mouth.
Unknown Female Friend
You've done this before. I can tell.
Benny
I, I, I swear. Maybe as a child.
Unknown Female Friend
Well, you've done it before, so just so everybody knows, I've never done it.
Benny
I don't think I've ever done this before. Okay, here's four. Oh, fuck. Five.
Unknown Female Friend
What's that?
Chuck
Don't make him laugh. Keep going. You're just getting started. They can stick out. They can keep. Yeah, just. If you. If you push them together, they can stick out and drain. Okay, I'll count for you. What's that?
Benny
11. 11.
Chuck
12. Keep going. Don't make him laugh. Don't make him laugh. 12. 13. You can keep. You can do the whole bowl if you focus. Thirteen. Fourteen. Keep going. Fifteen. Wait, hold on. Let me just. Don't get distracted by what I'm doing. I just have to film what you look like. Okay, you're at 15. Don't laugh. 16. Keep going. There's a whole bowl. 17. At this point, you're just building. Oh, I think he might have actually. He might be able to go forever now. Boom. 18. 19. It really comes down to laughing. It's not bad.
Benny
Hmm.
Chuck
What number is that?
Benny
20.
Chuck
21. 21. 22. 23. 24. Don't laugh.
Benny
Stop.
Chuck
Just be focused. 25. We're just getting started. 26. I'm gonna get a different angle on you. Just 27. You look like Santa. Don't laugh. Oh, no, that doesn't count. 28, I think.
Benny
Mm.
Chuck
29. Keep going. 30. 31. 32. Just keep going. Maybe you're not at 33. Maybe this could go on forever.
Unknown Female Friend
That's insane.
Chuck
34. If anything falls, it's done. If they fall, they're done. Your structure's not valid. 34.
Unknown Female Friend
They're sticking together. He might.
Chuck
I know, but they're hanging on by a thread. 36. Now he's scared of grabbing, so he's cocked his head back. 37. I don't know. I've lost. 38. Okay, this is insane. Okay. Oh, the dangle. 39. But it's dangling. Oh, smart adjust.
Benny
Wow.
Chuck
He ate six of them. Right there. 40. 41. Is that.

Chuck
Oh, my God. But f. Done. Time. Time. What was it?
Benny

Chuck
Oh, all right.
Benny

Unknown Female Friend
That was the stupidest thing I ever watched.

Unknown Female Friend
It was insane.
Benny
I don't like. I like it better. When we were eating marshmallows, I was
Chuck
having so much fun.
Benny
Chuck, did it feel real?
Chuck
Yeah. Real?
Benny
Yeah.
Chuck
You didn't like that?
Benny
I loved it. Everyone had to die.
Chuck
I thought that that was unbelievable. I thought that when I came out of here, everyone. You guys were gonna be like. That's the most.
Unknown Female Friend
You were just like. Everyone dies.
Chuck
Well, I thought we were supposed to do scary things. Your biggest fear was getting murdered. Well, how am I off topic?
Unknown Female Friend
Speaking of fears, you have some. Some OCD around one of your biggest fears?
Chuck
I do, and I don't love talking about it. My biggest fear is, like, my parents dying. That's one of my biggest fears. And I have a lot of OCD wrapped up into that. And I do some rituals around it. And honestly, it's not the right way to live. And if I knew about having a company like NOCD when I was really struggling at my peak with this thing when I was a kid. I might have tapped into it. I didn't know about it, unfortunately. You should know that Insurance actually covers 138 million Americans and includes support between sessions, so you never have to face OCD alone. To learn more about starting OCD therapy.
Benny
To learn more about starting ocd. Sorry, I have to read it again because it's OCD tips.
Unknown Female Friend

Benny
Work.
Chuck
Chicago, Illinois.

Benny
Yeah. Or suffocated? Like, just like.
Chuck
Yeah. I mean, in the movies. The water. The being trapped under ice.
Benny
Oh, my God. Trapped under ice is crazy.
Unknown Female Friend
Do you ever worry about being in a factory in your chains, getting stuck on the machinery and choking you?
Chuck
Chuck, you ever worry about when you're in the factory? Have you ever stepped foot in a factory? I've never heard planes feel more.
Benny
Yours are like fighter jets.
Chuck
Literally, since we started creating these vignettes, it feels like.
Benny
Are you filming a podcast?
Chuck
No, it's the podcast. What do you mean? This is just a window into people hanging out.
Benny
Chuck, is your biggest fear calling Vignette a podcast?
Chuck
I don't know what my biggest fear is. Probably not. I mean, look, obviously death not fulfilling my potential. My biggest fear is I have a big fear of. Of. I have a really big fear of children coming and a number of things happening. One, like me not feeling like the whole thing is that life changing. That's a fear.
Unknown Female Friend
That's the whole thing.
Chuck
Being a father, having kids, like being kind of unmoved by children is a fear. I don't think that's gonna happen. I think I'm gonna be, like, more moved than anyone, but it is a fear. Another fear is more moved than any. Another fear is my body will break down before that's kind of already happening. Before I'm able to play on the floor with the kids. And even with little kids that are family, friends or whatever, when they want to play and they ask me to play, I play for five minutes, and then I want to blow my head off. I just don't like playing. And I have a fear that I'm going to always think my kid is annoying because they want to spend time together. But I'm optimistic that I will want to spend the time with the kid. And that pivot will be what changes my life and my perspective for the better. But my fear is that it won't and that I'm trapped in this hellhole.
Benny
Chuck, did you just say your biggest fear is that your kid will want to play with you?
Chuck
No. I mean, one fear is that. One fear is that I won't be moved so long.
Benny
Yes. Your shirt is two thirds of my life.
Chuck
It's not that long, Jack.
Benny
Your legs look like. You look like a Oompa Loompa or something.
Chuck
In high school, when your shirt was too short, they would say, your shirt is so young.
Unknown Female Friend
You do hate when your shirt is short. I've noticed that.
Benny
I love it when my shirt is short.
Unknown Female Friend
You always like, is the shirt too short?
Chuck
Oh, I hate the contemporary, like, box short crop shirt.
Benny
I remember how good he looked the other day when he had it.
Unknown Female Friend
When he dresses in anything other than the Nike Dry Sport, I think you look so good right now, even though you are wearing a shirt that goes down to your knees.
Chuck
Do you think I have good style or be?
Benny
Chuck, my biggest fear is that your shirt's gonna fall down to your feet and take off.
Chuck
I want to know, do you think I have good style?
Unknown Female Friend
You don't try.
Chuck
We'll go one at a time.
Unknown Female Friend
Okay, you go first.
Benny
I already said it.
Unknown Female Friend
Okay. Do I think you have good style? You said what? Yes, I do think you have good style when you try. But for the past six years, every single day, you have worn a Nike Dry Sport shirt. One that, like, traps your body odor. It makes you stink, and I love the way you stink. So I don't mind it. But it is a unique choice for such a stylish man.
Chuck
Those are days that I'm just with you, and I know that you're no, no, no.
Benny
Just days that you're with any like,
Unknown Female Friend
video of you or like, interview you're wearing the Nike dress for.
Chuck
Just for the last six years.
Unknown Female Friend
But it's wild.
Chuck
So wait, did you think I with style or no.
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah. Are you looking at me or Benny?
Chuck
Looking at Benny.
Benny
Oh my God.
Chuck
You can't. Do you. Benny, can you see? Can anyone see?
Benny
I can see you. Check. I'm looking at you.
Chuck
Not right now. Globally. You don't have to look at me. Just. What's your instance? Good style or.
Benny
No, I think you always have poor shoe choice for your outfit. Like, you always have like, Chuck. You always dress like your shoes are like a man who has like plantar fasciitis.
Unknown Female Friend
They look like he doesn't care, but
Benny
he your like, laissez faire, like, attitude with style. I do appreciate how, like, it's not stylish.
Chuck
I am.
Benny
Yeah, but it's like so not stylish that it's stylish. What do you think about Mochi Lee? Is she stylish?
Chuck
I love her style.
Unknown Female Friend
Well, right now I'm kind of on
Chuck
a. I love that hoodie.
Benny
Yeah, you are very stylish. You've been 70s lately.
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah, yeah, I think because.
Chuck
Because em.
Benny
What's Em.
Unknown Female Friend
No, honestly, what's happened is I got overwhelmed with the thought of having to pick.
Chuck
You got a little overwhelmed with that.
Unknown Female Friend
God damn.
Chuck
With what?
Unknown Female Friend
All the times I was going to have to pick out clothes for this vignette.
Chuck
Yeah, segment.
Unknown Female Friend
Segment.
Chuck
Yeah. No, I like vignette podcast. Absolutely.
Unknown Female Friend
So I thought, who cares? I'll just wear T shirts.
Chuck
I think you look great in a T shirt. But I'm talking. Your hoodie is so good.
Benny
What about your style outside of this?
Unknown Female Friend
I haven't thought. We haven't gone anywhere.
Chuck
You know, he's way more flamboyant. Whatever. And he said, can I dress you for one night? And he made me wear like these. I looked like a coal miner. Like, the outfit was so ridiculous.
Unknown Female Friend
Was this at your guys 30th?
Chuck
I said I would love to wear this. Cause flabbergasted me that he even owned this outfit. Seriously. And I wore it like, honestly to make fun of him. I have never gotten more compliments on my outfit.
Benny
Everyone's like, oh, my God, man, you look so cool. This is like a cool pair. Check out for God.
Chuck
I'm having probably the most fun on any vignette. Most fun on any vignette we've ever done.
Unknown Female Friend
Why don't you do a little Accent for us. Let's hear that again.
Chuck
I'm so bad at accents.
Unknown Female Friend
Just try one.
Benny
No, we're going to have to cut out whatever accent he does.
Unknown Female Friend
New Zealand or something.
Chuck
New Zealand? No. I don't even know why you'd go there. That wasn't. I don't even know why you laughed so automatically that no matter what I said.
Unknown Female Friend
Because you do it all the time and it always sounds like that. It's like you broke your jaw.
Chuck
How about this Southern accent? Don't interrupt me. Well, shish.
Unknown Female Friend
Oh. So, shh.
Chuck
I'd like to tell you a story about a feller by the name of Carlos. See, Carlos was a gambling man. Well, shush. Just about everybody was back then.
Unknown Female Friend
That was really good.
Benny
It was awful. Until just about everyone was. No, no.
Unknown Female Friend
You said, like, Carlos. Really?
Chuck
Well, I think it is just. You have to work like Bradley Cooper, I think, went to a dialect coach to do the.
Benny
You can't even speak regular English. They're gonna have to reconfigure your jaw.
Chuck
Okay, let's see you guys do an accent.
Unknown Female Friend
Let me see here. Oh, is it a good one?
Chuck
Yes.
Benny
Whoa.
Unknown Female Friend
It was a good one, isn't it?
Chuck
Yes, it is.
Benny
What is good?
Unknown Female Friend
New Zealand one or. It's like New Zealand.
Chuck
Sorry.
Benny
Where are you going?
Chuck
Just chilling. What if I just. The glass. Just shy. Just fell right through the home.
Benny
Don't you want to jump off a building sometimes?
Unknown Female Friend
Me or you?
Benny
No, just in life, like, never, really. Whenever I see a ledge, I just, like, immediately want to run and fly
Chuck
off and when I was young. That's crazy. You should go see a doctor. You're having suicidal thoughts.
Benny
You're telling me if you're on of top. Top of, like, a big tall building, you never look at it and just want to run full speed and jump off?
Unknown Female Friend
No, I think about how I don't want to do that.
Benny
You're telling me you don't like when you're driving down the highway, you don't like.
Chuck
It's a different situation.
Unknown Female Friend
I don't want to drive, but it's the same.
Benny
But no, you don't want to just fly off.
Unknown Female Friend
No. Sometimes when people cross the street, I think if I just went up a little further, I could knock them in the ankles.
Chuck
When I was young, I went to the Grand Canyon with my family. I was like, eight. And I literally had so much confidence back then and, like, not fear of this type of thing that I told my parents, I said, I know that if I jumped, I would be able to survive. And land it.
Unknown Female Friend
That's.
Chuck
What do you think about that?
Benny
Well, is that the end of the story?
Chuck
Yeah. Eight years old, kid having that level of confidence.
Benny
So you just said it. You didn't jump.
Chuck
It'd be so stressful if I was a parent of someone who was 8 and said, like, I know I can jump. I know I can.
Benny
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think more stressful. Do you think? What type of parent do you guys think you're gonna be?
Unknown Female Friend
Really good ones.
Chuck
Great ones. What I was saying, I don't predict would happen. It's just a fear I would be.
Unknown Female Friend
That would be.
Chuck
Go as long as you can. Don't stop. You have to go as long as you can. I guarantee you I can go so much longer after him. Okay, all right. Okay. Okay.
Unknown Female Friend
You go.
Benny
Okay. You're so much shorter. Do you know how to rock? Do you know how to rock? Scream. So when you rock. Scream.
Chuck
You have to.
Benny
You have to go. You have to go. You have to go. And then you have to slowly go up. Oh, I can do that into a scream. Okay, Chuck, you go first.
Chuck
Wait.
Unknown Female Friend
There you go.
Chuck
I don't want to do it because I haven't made it.
Benny
Now you try.
Chuck
I don't like that.
Benny
What? Sounds like a yawn. Okay, I'll try.
Chuck
Okay. We. I think.
Benny
Chuck, do you like summer camp?
Chuck
Yeah. Favorite part of life.
Benny
It was one of my favorite times in my entire life, and I just reconnected with a few of our friends that I hadn't connected with. Meeting up and renting a home on Airbnb and just, like, doing a whole Color wars thing and having, like, the best time.
Chuck
Airbnb is something that I haven't really spoken about how Airbnb connected us early on in our relationship.
Unknown Female Friend
Oh, yeah, it did.
Chuck
Yeah. If you hadn't booked that home on Airbnb, Airbnb's platform that day, you wouldn't have given me that ride home. We wouldn't have connected. Maybe at the length. I think we would have connected anyways. But it was a gift.
Unknown Female Friend
It was a gift. Airbnb connected us because I got to give you the ride home, and I got to spend extra time with you, and I got to know you.
Benny
We respect you.
Unknown Female Friend
We love you. Airbnb.
Chuck
We love Airbnb, and we love you. You know, we're not the only multimedia experience. Oh, yeah, we are kind of. But no Canva.
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah.
Chuck
Yeah. They can do a lot of things. It's a diverse program.
Unknown Female Friend
It is a diverse program.
Benny
Yeah.
Chuck
I said it weird.
Unknown Female Friend
You did say it weird, but that's okay. If you were using Canva, you could probably just say it however you want to say it and it would get
Chuck
it and it would cause this word. You prompt it with the words.
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah, it can kind of understand whatever prompt you give it.
Chuck
I think it does a lot of different things. I think if you're like, hey, help me make this video. It can do it. Make this poster for me. I mean that's just.
Unknown Female Friend
That is cool that you can like use. There's so many more like creative platforms to use. I can't believe it.
Chuck
What's that mean? Just cause C A n. I can't believe it. Canva. Canva makes design easy for anyone with built in AI that lets you remove, generate and animate content in just a click. Start designing today@canva.com but what's your fear? Sex becoming complicated.
Unknown Female Friend
What would become complicated.
Chuck
If, for example, one day you said to me, like, you know, I'd really like it if you started like talking dirty to me the whole time we have sex.
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah. You don't like that?
Chuck
I would be. And you meant it. I would be just rocked and I would not know how to move forward. I'd have to immediately probably go to therapy to have any understanding of how to approach this. Because when you say that, I can't. Like me saying back like that makes me uncomfortable. Is such a turn off when they're just saying to turn me on requires this aggressiveness.
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah, yeah, I see what you're saying. You get in your head about it
Benny
like, what if she was just like, the only way I'm gonna be happy is if we like had sex like twice a day.
Chuck
Well, that's different. That's different than talking dirty.
Benny
Oh, so that one, you're not afraid of that?
Chuck
It's not just talking dirty.
Benny
It's just.
Chuck
It's just becoming sexually unaligned.
Unknown Female Friend
Oh yeah, that's a good. That's a good fear.
Chuck
We're so sexually aligned in every way. Like literally. I'm not exaggerating. Every single time that we have sex, it feels like the other night, the last time we had sex, I said I felt like that was the best time we ever had sex. And so only recently did I personally just have the best sex of my life.
Unknown Female Friend
What do you think about that?
Benny
Do you feel the same way?
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah. You do, 100%.
Benny
Huh? That cool?
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah, it's pretty chill.
Benny
Nice. That's cool. You know, you should just like one day just like fuck with them.
Chuck
Just throw stuff.
Benny
No, just be like Actually, like, I
Chuck
just see you as first woman. What is it, Eve? But not even.
Benny
Not even.
Chuck
Oh, wow. You just bring out the animal in me. And I love. You're the one who asked. Tell us about you and Selena's sex life.
Benny
I'm not allowed to talk about that publicly.
Chuck
Oh, wow. She made you sign one?
Benny
No, I'm just like a gentleman. Kind of. Just like a thing I do. I'm like a gentleman or something. I don't know. Don't worry. Open up your Explore page real quick,
Chuck
guys. This is how you know it's real. And we're really just living inside a vignette. Reggie Neas, our dog of two years.
Unknown Female Friend
I can't believe he's making his debut.
Chuck
He just arrived.
Unknown Female Friend
Are you excited?
Chuck
Oh, my God. Hi. How was he?
Unknown Female Friend
He was so good.
Benny
Such a good boy. What's happening?
Chuck
Thank you so much, Reggie. I'll see you tomorrow. Thank you. Yes.
Unknown Female Friend
Big boy.
Benny
Hey, Reggie.
Chuck
Reggie.
Benny
Where's Reggie?
Unknown Female Friend
Reggie. Why don't you come over here, dog?
Benny
Yeah. Hey, Reggie.
Chuck
Wow. I mean, he's. I mean, there's a lot going on here. He's like his smart dog.
Benny
He's figuring there's nothing going on.
Chuck
What's he doing? Sipping water.
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah, his food's over there. Why don't you shut that door so he can't get back outside?
Chuck
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good call.
Unknown Female Friend
Well, anyway, one of Dave's biggest fears is Reggie dying in front of him. Reggie, why don't you come over here and speak on that?
Chuck
Oh, wow. The bone dog. Reggie. Nias.
Unknown Female Friend
Oh, hey, Nias.
Chuck
Chuck. Can you believe.
Unknown Female Friend
Reggie, you alive over there?
Benny
It's like I'm hanging. I'm having gas issues. I'm, like, hanging out.
Unknown Female Friend
Do you think it was the marshmallows
Benny
I've been holding him in?
Unknown Female Friend
Do you think it wasn't? Who, seven marshmallows?
Benny
No, I just don't want to fart all over the camera. Like, I don't want to fart, like, so much.
Chuck
So much.
Benny
I farted so many times. I farted on camera earlier.
Unknown Female Friend
So you're just gonna hold them?
Chuck
Yeah. I don't believe it. You strike me as the kind of guy who, if there is a good fart to have, you would attempt it.
Benny
I don't want it.
Chuck
Can I tell you my theory? What? You're scared you're gonna your pants because you've had shit in your ass all day. Am I ready?
Benny
Should you just be silent for a little bit?
Unknown Female Friend
Yeah.
Benny
Okay.
Chuck
Reggie's like, the lack of attention. He's paid us is.
Benny
Okay, hold on, hold on, hold on.
Unknown Female Friend
Reggie. People probably like a little silence.
Benny
Okay, okay, let's try to be silent.
Unknown Female Friend
It's not good, Sam.
This episode of Friends Keep Secrets—hosted by benny blanco, Lil Dicky (Dave Burd, here “Chuck”), and Kristin Batalucco—dives into the theme of fear. Between confessions, absurd hypotheticals, and spontaneous games, the friends candidly discuss their personal fears, share odd stories, and, in typical fashion, interrupt themselves with tangents, random competitions, and improvised performances. The episode veers from comedy to vulnerability, fully encapsulating the “fly-on-the-wall” vibe of their friendship.

The episode fluidly shifts between hilarious, sometimes surreal tangents (marshmallow stuffing, accent contests, screaming competitions), sincere emotional confessions (fears of parenthood, death, relationships, pet loss), and the mundane realities of close friendship (bickering about style, group singing, holding in farts).
The language remains spontaneous, silly, and honest throughout, often abruptly changing gears—perfectly encapsulating the podcast’s core appeal: the unfiltered comfort and absurdity of hanging out with close friends.
The Fears Episode is a quintessential Friends Keep Secrets outing—blurring lines between serious and silly, mixing raw admission with physical antics and randomness. Through discussions of irrational and rational fears, friendship dynamics, and everyday vulnerability, listeners get the full, unfiltered effect of being “in the room” with the hosts.
