Key Discussion Points & Insights

The Art of (Not) Texting Back & Parental Worry

• Texting etiquettes: Andrew reveals he has different expectations based on the person he’s texting.
  • For best friends, like Bobby Lee, he’s lenient — "I give them a little bit more grace." (01:11)
  • But for parents, he panics if they don’t respond quickly: "If it's my mom or my dad panic, they don't text back within an hour. I'm freaking out because they're retired. What are you doing?" (01:37)
• Transition into the anxiety that accompanies aging parents; mutual commiseration about parental health and the absurdities of sleep apnea machines and nightstand clutter.

Comedy & Ego: Andrew’s Onstage Mishap

• Vegas incident: Andrew describes accidentally hitting himself in the face with the mic onstage, bleeding during his comedy set:
  • “The mic is stuck … and I’m like laughing it off at the crowd and I’m like, am I bleeding? And the guy in the front goes, yeah. And it’s dripping into my beard.” (07:00)
  • Led to an existential reflection on how performers sometimes let one blunder overshadow a whole great show.

Microdosing, Mushrooms, and Mental Health

• Microdosing routine: Andrew shares how he regularly microdoses mushrooms, primarily for depression and anxiety.
  • “I'm a big mushroom... I microdose mushrooms intermittently. So I take them in the morning, have a cup of coffee… It's more, it's less psychoactive…” (07:55)
• Advocates for doing “whatever makes you feel good”: “I'm not against people taking pills ... do whatever makes you feel good.” (08:41)
• Recreational stories: Shares anecdotes about accidentally chipping his tooth while high on mushrooms during a New Orleans bachelor party. A prime example of the show’s blend of humor and vulnerability.

Dream Celebrity Spouses

• The guys playfully debate: if they weren’t with their wives, which celebrity would be their spouse?
  • Andrew’s wife: Tom Hardy — “The things he would be able to do to her that I couldn't do… he's such a sultry looking person.” (21:35)
  • Ben: Vince Vaughn over John Mayer, because “I think Vince Vaughn could give her a beautiful life. John Mayer, I think he'd cheat on her.” (22:57)
  • Josh: JFK Jr., but with the lifestyle of a “middling NFL quarterback” – “the perfect...maybe just JFK Jr.” (25:35)
• Playful discussion of their wives’ “types.”

Addiction, Recovery, and Setting Boundaries

• Deep segment on addiction, centering around Bobby Lee’s relapses and Andrew’s boundary setting as a friend.
  • Santino: “I've dealt with it two times. One time was terrible. One time was very, very, very bad.” (30:02)
  • “You can't really batten down the hatches for that. You just gotta deal with it when it comes…” (30:18)
  • Talks about starting the Bad Friends podcast with Bobby after his recovery, highlighting how supportive friendships and tough love can go hand-in-hand.
• Josh commends Andrew: “I give you a lot of credit for being like...you knew that you couldn’t love him into getting better.” (33:27)

Accents & American Sexiness

• Discussion of regional U.S. accents and which are considered the “sexiest.”
  • Survey says Southern drawl is #1, but Santino argues for British as “the sexiest American accent is British!” (42:47)
  • Deconstruction of Southern, Boston, and Canadian accents—with Santino’s improv flair.
  • “The sweet Southern draw, yeah … but the deeper Southern draws, that's not sexy and sultry.” (37:44)

Reality TV & The Death of “Wacky Goofies”

• Preference for British competition shows (Great British Baking Show, Great Pottery Throw Down) over American fame-driven reality TV.
  • “American television competition turns into ‘how do I become famous when the show is over’...whereas in the British ones...‘how do I win because I want to be good at this?’” (45:51)
• Lamentation about the decline of comedic/goofy roles in TV and film.
  • “Nobody wants goof shit anymore. They want, you know, a ninth Avengers… I have no business over there.” (50:31)

Tattoos, Family, and the ‘What Are You Nuts?’ Round

• Santino critiques “knick-knack” (small, scattered) tattoos: “If you're gonna get a tattoo, get a tattoo. Don't be a knick-knacky tattoo.” (54:17)
• Josh and Ben joke about Jewish burial plots and tattooing numbers (Holocaust humor approached with dark irreverence).
• The “What Are You Nuts?” closing segment:
  • Ben: Own being a Disney adult; the hate is overrated—unless you go alone without kids (57:38)
  • Santino: “Speakerphone in public—what are you nuts?! ... Get headphones or put it up to your fucking head.” (59:14)
  • Josh: “Don’t close down the government. ... The real workers, the army ... maybe they shouldn’t miss a fucking check.” (58:22)

[Andrew Santino]

So smart. Why didn't we do that? This podcast is for kids. Hi. How.

[Josh]

Ma', am, welcome to the Good Guys podcast.

[Ben]

We have the great Andrew Santino here, and I don't say that lightly. So fricking funny. So amazing. You obviously already know him. Andrew, quick question for you. If you're texting with someone, they're not texting you back. You see them just posting Instagram stories. Are you blowing them up? Like, why the fuck haven't you answered me?

[Andrew Santino]

Ooh, very good question. Depends on whom I am texting, right? Like, Bobby Lee is probably one of my best friends on Earth. My little. My little co host, my little kimchi noodle, my favorite boy. If I text him, I know there might be a day delay because he sleeps till 4pm right? So some people I know, I give them a little bit more grace. Yeah, a little bit more grace. If it's my mom or my dad panic, they don't text back within an hour. I'm freaking out because they're retired. What do you do? What are you doing? Napping? Or a doctor's appointment.

[Ben]

What if it's Josh and he has his read? Receipts on.

[Andrew Santino]

Josh will text back immediately.

[Josh]

Receipts on.

[Andrew Santino]

You do. I don't even know, man. You gotta turn that off sometimes. I don't. You gotta turn that off. That's embarrassing. That's embarrassing. Let people know you read it.

[Josh]

That's crazy. That is so boomer of me.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah.

[Josh]

What's wrong?

[Ben]

How old are you again?

[Josh]

I'm 39.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, but 39 in Jewish years. You're 56 right now, actually.

[Josh]

Yeah. We're like cocker spaniels.

[Andrew Santino]

But you're cute. But you're cute.

[Josh]

We pee on the carpet.

[Andrew Santino]

It does matter who it is, right? That is funny. Some people, if there's someone that I know should be texting me back quicker, it does bother me, but I don't say anything about it because then I just go, well, I don't text you now as much As I used to, because you don't text me back.

[Josh]

We're. But you're right. We are entering that. That place with our parents, right? Because they're probably all in the similar 70s. My mom's in her 80s.

[Andrew Santino]

Like, yeah.

[Josh]

That fear of, like, if you go past now, we're like, we are entering that zone of, like, could walk in on our parents on the floor.

[Andrew Santino]

Hope not. God could forbid.

[Ben]

God forbid.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. Yeah. Well, I'm. My. My parents are. I literally was on the phone with my dad before I walked in here, and he'll hate that I'm putting this on the air, but that's why I'm doing it. He was. He was like, your mom's burping a lot, so we're gonna go to a doctor's appointment for the burps. I was like, where's the burp doctor? Like, in an internal medicine doctor is just gonna be like, you have gas. Get over it.

[Josh]

Right? I don't.

[Andrew Santino]

There's not a burp specialist that exists. And then he goes. And you know me, I'm on my sleep apnea test again tonight. My mom makes him sleep in the other room because my dad. It's. It's. It's insane how my father sleeps. He's.

[Ben]

He's like,

[Andrew Santino]

that's every night of my dad's life.

[Ben]

We have the same parents.

[Andrew Santino]

It's insane. And then he has a sleep apnea machine, and he refuses to use it, so they keep trying to find new ones. Like, there's new innovations now. There's like mouth guard, nose holder. It's all that. I mean, dude, my. My dad's bedside that. My parents. That's. We should take photos of our parents. Nightstands.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

Of the collection of shit on the nightstand and send photos to each other. Because my dad's is. It's the funniest thing you've ever seen. It's like. It's like a sleep apnea machine. Pills, Tons of pills.

[Josh]

The most pills.

[Andrew Santino]

The most pills I've ever seen.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

Lotion, an inhaler, a. A couple of pairs of socks, you know, because he wants socks on before he goes downstairs. My mom's is. It's a. Napkins, Kleenex, Pills. Lots of pills.

[Ben]

Lots of pills.

[Andrew Santino]

Lots of pills. Two coffee cups that have been there for a week, two weeks maybe.

[Josh]

Sure.

[Ben]

It's.

[Andrew Santino]

And then mine. I have ocd, so I have to have nothing on it. My wife, the opposite. Tons of shit. Nightstand me. Nothing but phone charging. Maybe a book. A book that I don't read.

[Josh]

Sure. But it looks.

[Andrew Santino]

I'll buy a book. I put it there. Don't read it. Buy another book. Put it on top of it. Don't read it.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

I'm so good. I have so many books. I've never read any of them.

[Josh]

I proudly bought this thing on an Amazon prime day, which was a sick like magsafe charger stand or my nightstand. Right? But I'm like, this looks chic. I'm never have to look for the plug. Let me tell you at 10:30 at night when you're half asleep and trying to fucking plug in your phone and you can't find the mag safe because this is the worst constructed bullshit ever. But boy, does it look good. And I'm like.

[Andrew Santino]

And your wife is like, what are you doing? Go to bed.

[Josh]

Does not stick. I can't stand the thing. But God, it's cute.

[Andrew Santino]

You also have a case. That's just obnoxious. That's huge. Case is.

[Josh]

It feels pretty slim.

[Andrew Santino]

I go. I go caseless. I've always gone caseless. I'm not interested in a case.

[Josh]

You're brave. But I have kids, so. Look, if I ever want to go out to eat with my kids, boom.

[Andrew Santino]

You just give them to watch the. Go ahead.

[Josh]

Watch Bluey or whatever it is or shows.

[Andrew Santino]

What is it called? What's the one that.

[Josh]

Blippi.

[Andrew Santino]

Blippi. That's. Yeah, watch blippi.

[Josh]

It's a 250 million dollar empire.

[Andrew Santino]

So is the Ms. Rachel girl. Even if she's like. She's worth like a billion dollars.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

So smart. Why didn't we do that? This. This podcast is for kids.

[Josh]

Yeah. I. How. How are you?

[Andrew Santino]

A little catchy tune.

[Josh]

Yeah. Give me your attention.

[Ben]

We have our theme song.

[Andrew Santino]

Josh.

[Ben]

Kids love it. I'm just saying we could pivot on a dime. You want to pivot?

[Andrew Santino]

Don't do it. Don't do it. Because then you're stuck in that world forever.

[Josh]

What? Being dumb Rich.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. You don't need that, dude. You just want to stay dumb. I do just want to stay dumb.

[Josh]

I do.

[Ben]

It's a great slogan. Stay dumb.

[Andrew Santino]

I want to get this out of the way because I have a. I have a cr. Because of my ego. This is embarrassing. So it's a fun story. I have a cut on my lip. And right this morning, I'm like, oh, babe, can I. Can you cover this up? Do you have like a Aqua Force? I'm gonna. This weekend. I played Vegas. I got back last night. This is how much I love You. I got back. We saw each other at the airport. We did. I got back last night at the end of my show in Vegas. So I'm a professional. I've been doing comedy for 20 years. I know better. You know, I'm having a good night. The mic is stuck. You know the mic is stuck. So I'm trying to pull on it, hit myself right in the mouth with the mic and I'm like laughing it off at the crowd and I'm like, am I bleeding? And the guy in the front goes, yeah. And it's dripping into my beard.

[Josh]

No.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, look, I busted my lip. It doesn't look as bad today, but I smoked myself in the face and I thought an hour of great comedy is trumped in my mind by one swift microphone to the, to the lip. Because now the show was ruined.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

My buddy was like, how was the show? I'm like, terrible. I hit myself in the face with a microphone. Great show. No, it wasn't. Smoked myself in the mouth. I thought I chipped my tooth. Because I've chipped this tooth five or six times. It's Captain Bonded and all that stuff.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

Now I have to redo it. I chipped it the first time in New Orleans on a, at a crawfish boil when I was, I was on psychedelics.

[Josh]

Okay, walk us through which, which psychedelics.

[Andrew Santino]

I'm a big. I'm actually a big mushroom. I'm big on mushrooms.

[Josh]

Ben too.

[Andrew Santino]

I love.

[Ben]

I.

[Andrew Santino]

So I'm.

[Ben]

They're great. I don't know if I'm. I don't know if I'm big on mushrooms. I will, I'll take mushrooms twice a year and it's wonderful. I have nothing bad to say about them. I don't know if I'd say I'm big on mushrooms. I wish I was bigger on them.

[Andrew Santino]

I love them. I'm. I'm on them right now, actually. I, I am. I microdose mushrooms intermittently. So I take them in the morning, have a cup of coffee and it's microdosing, so it's small, but. Yeah.

[Ben]

Is it mushroom coffee or. You're taking mushrooms with your coffee? Because they make, they make psychedelic coffee, don't they? Don't they do this now?

[Andrew Santino]

They do. You can get it infused. But I take little mushroom gummies that are micro dose in the morning with coffee.

[Josh]

So if a regular, let's say for fun, you're doing like a cap and a stem. What, what. How much of that are you doing on the daily or like this morning?

[Andrew Santino]

Very, very small amount. This is like this. Yeah. Like a fifth or an eighth of a cap. Yeah, it's a very, very small amount. It's more, it's less psychoactive and more

[Ben]

you find that you're more creative. Is that what it is?

[Andrew Santino]

Well, I do it for depression and anxiety. I mean, I do it for depression. I, I didn't want to get on pills. I'm not against people taking pills. I'm gonna get. People get all critical. It's like, I do whatever makes you feel good.

[Josh]

Yeah. Maybe I shouldn't microdose my wellbutrin. I'm. No, I macro dose.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, you macro.

[Josh]

I take a fucking hero.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

In the morning, he's just like, yeah,

[Josh]

I would if I could.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. No, I like, I like, it's changed my, it changed my pattern in the morning. It's also helped my nighttimes, my sleep. I have less anxiety when I go to bed. But yeah, I take them little micro dosers. Little, tiny little. And they're phenomenal. And, but sometimes, But I dose. Sometimes I dose. Sometimes I like to take a ride. But I was taking a ride in New Orleans. This was actually. We were on one. I was having a fun time for a bachelor party. We went to a crawfish boil. We had a crawfish boil and crawfish. Very soft, soft, soft, soft. I had it in my head that I had bit down on a shell of a crawfish. Not a real thing. Not that hard. You could bite right through it. I bit on something else and it chipped my front tooth at a bachelor party. So being high on mushrooms in New Orleans with a chip tooth got a lot of, Lot of free drinks at me.

[Josh]

[Josh]

Summer.

[Andrew Santino]

I'm excited. The only guy she's dated I ever enjoyed.

[Josh]

Wow.

[Andrew Santino]

Well, it's your. You have a sister?

[Josh]

No.

[Andrew Santino]

You have a sister?

[Ben]

Yes.

[Andrew Santino]

Didn't.

[Josh]

Huge.

[Ben]

Isn't it so important? Oh my God.

[Andrew Santino]

Every guy they bring around, you're immediately like, you're looking them up and down, you're judging their socks. Like, you just, you go through all the steps of like, what kind of guy is this guy?

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

And every guy she brought home was an absolute dud. Just a total, a big L. And this is the first guy I was like, I really like this guy. Like, he's awesome. But I didn't say that to her. I didn't want to. You know what I mean? Didn't want to influence. But when they really got into it, I was like, oh, this is good.

[Ben]

When she was bringing home duds, though, were you telling her he's a dud or you were letting her find out on her own?

[Andrew Santino]

If I would. If I had a couple of, you know, bowls of loudmouth soup. If I had a couple of drinks, I would. Then I would vocalize it a little bit. But I didn't want to hurt her feelings. But, but my parents, I was pretty. I'd be like, that guy sucks shit. I hate that guy. It's just, it's hard. You don't want to break your sister's heart if she really likes a guy. But you do want to be like, this isn't the guy. Right. You know? You know, this is just like a fling around.

[Josh]

Right?

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, yeah.

[Ben]

You, you hope that your mom does the dirty lifting for you. That's at least what I do. I tell her, I'm like, you know, this guy's no good. She's like, I know. She's immediately going to tell my sister,

[Andrew Santino]

yeshiva University, this guy's no good.

[Ben]

No good.

[Andrew Santino]

When you have a Jewish mother, though, she can take the reins on that. My mom's an Irish Catholic. We don't. We don't. We bury all of our emotions and our feelings.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

We don't say anything. They probably would let her marry a guy that they hated, but they're like, if it makes you happy.

[Josh]

Right.

[Andrew Santino]

You know what I mean?

[Josh]

My wife's Irish Catholic and I always say her love language is quiet.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. Quiet down. It is true.

[Josh]

Her, My sister in law, her younger sister, I hope it's okay to tell this story. She like, of my wife's one of four and none of the siblings really have brought around. Like, I was the only guy my wife brought around and we got married.

[Andrew Santino]

Right. Wow.

[Josh]

But her younger sister was the one, because the youngest, like, she would bring around a guy or two that she was dating and there was one, and they were super young, who shushed my mother in law because he was watching SportsCenter.

[Andrew Santino]

Shut up. Mom, like, shut up, Mom.

[Josh]

They were sitting in my mother in law's house and they're watching SportsCenter randomly. My sister in law, Blake, and her boyfriend and my mother in law said something like, does anyone want some? And he goes,

[Ben]

wow,

[Josh]

it's done.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, I can't do that.

[Josh]

Like, wrap it up, wrap it up.

[Andrew Santino]

Call it a day. You don't shush. You don't shush. You don't shush. You only shush down. You can shush below, you child. Yeah, shush. I was a kid, I was my buddy's kid. Really wanted to shush the other day. Can't do it. Can't shush another person's kid. But boy, do you want to sometimes.

[Josh]

I mean, I still, up until I've been married with. I've been with my wife 15 years. We've been married eight years. Up until last year, I stopped bringing things when we go over to her parents house for dinner. She's like, we're married now.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. But no, you're. You're smart.

[Josh]

I'm like, they like, they like a little wine, right? And she's like, but we're here twice a week. Like, you're gonna bring stuff every time.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Yes, you are. You shouldn't have stopped. This is a big mistake. I think you start bringing again.

[Josh]

No, you should.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, you should.

[Ben]

You should.

[Andrew Santino]

You should really be who you really.

[Ben]

Yeah, because then she's gonna think something happened. She's gonna think, oh, what happened? Josh used to always bring something. Now he doesn't. Did I say something?

[Josh]

I do quarterly. Big things. I'll be like, I got us a hibachi chef. You know?

[Ben]

Sure.

[Josh]

It's a big surprise.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. But then you're Mr. Hollywood coming in, showing off. That's tough. You gotta bring.

[Josh]

I've never done that, but I'm think I want.

[Andrew Santino]

You want to. Dude, we had one last year for my birthday.

[Josh]

It's best, right?

[Andrew Santino]

It was the. My wife got a hibachi chef in our backyard and all my friends came over because I was like, I don't want to go to a place. I don't want to go do a birthday thing somewhere, you know? I was like, can we just do. How can we figure out something else? And my wife had talked to our good friend, a mutual friend of ours, and she was like, have you ever thought about, like having one in home? Because we were going to take everybody to Benihana. That was going to be this year.

[Josh]

Sure.

[Andrew Santino]

And whole ordeal. Benihana not accommodating by the way they were like, the room is not that this. And it was all this stuff.

[Josh]

They're elitist.

[Andrew Santino]

They really are. And she goes, well, what about at the house? We found one this guy, insanely funny, one of the funniest guys I've ever seen in my life. He screwed up every single trick. He almost lit my backyard on fire. It was hilarious, dude. And then he came around. Well, when he would screw up a trick, you know how they do the tricks with, like, the eggs of the shrimp and all that? He literally would screw up every time. And it was part of the bit because he would laugh it off and he would grab. He had. He had a Super Soaker and he would smoke you in the face with it.

[Ben]

It's so good.

[Andrew Santino]

I mean, dude, he would. It was violent. The pressure was insane. It was such a continuous pump. It's not like a one pump. He's like. And then he would knock someone out with it. And I was like, this is making up for all of it. And the food was not good. Yeah, didn't matter. Didn't matter. Fried rice is all you need. Just make the fried rice. Yeah, all the. We don't need more than that. Just make a lump of fried rice. We're going to eat it. So that highly recommend getting it, honestly. And it was. I mean, it wasn't crazy expensive. Like you could use.

[Ben]

I was going to say they're reasonably priced. You're looking for a good deal, Josh. They're going to feel like 50, 60 bucks a person. They come to your house.

[Andrew Santino]

This is the name of. The real name of the show is Good Deal. Looking for a good deal.

[Josh]

Great deal.

[Andrew Santino]

Good deal.

[Josh]

So you've been reading our Reddit.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, Good deal. Yeah.

[Josh]

They were like these fucking Jews. IOS.

[Andrew Santino]

That's me. I commented.

[Josh]

Right. I get that.

[Andrew Santino]

I run the subreddit. Yeah.

[Josh]

No, I support it.

[Josh]

Okay, wait. Let's get back to our original idea. Let's discuss who we think would be best for our wives if we weren't with them.

[Andrew Santino]

I already know.

[Josh]

Who do you think.

[Andrew Santino]

It's been vocalized. My wife loves Tom Hardy. Like, is in love with Tom Hardy.

[Josh]

But do you think he would be the right guy? Not just aesthetically.

[Andrew Santino]

Absolutely.

[Josh]

Okay.

[Andrew Santino]

The things he would be able to do to her, that I couldn't do. I mean, imagine he walks in the room, he's such a sultry looking person.

[Josh]

What's he sound like?

[Andrew Santino]

He's got a little bit of an attitude. Well, what. What character is he putting on at that moment? I don't know. I want to have sex with you.

[Josh]

Spread your legs.

[Ben]

Open up.

[Andrew Santino]

I'm coming in. He's so talented that she. She just thinks he's so handsome and cool, and he is.

[Josh]

He's everything.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. And I get in, and I give her credit because at least she picked someone that I go, yeah, that's like a guy. I get that. That's. I get that like the.

[Ben]

The.

[Josh]

The.

[Andrew Santino]

The ones that are like, Hollywood likes, you know, like a Glenn Powell or something. No offense, G.P. not a chance of my wife. She doesn't like that guy. She likes the little mysterious little. Little bit. Little like, you know, can dive into the depths of the darkness. You know, she loves that. That's what she likes. Because I'm a dark guy. You know, not here, not by tone,

[Josh]

no, but I know deep dark.

[Andrew Santino]

In the sun, in the. In the depths.

[Josh]

I know nobody's microdosing mushrooms every day because they're all good.

[Ben]

Hey.

[Andrew Santino]

Yes, they are. And don't you listen out there. Someone's on it right now. Like, wait, no, no. You're fine. You're fine.

[Josh]

Ben woke up this morning and the thought of microdosing anything did not cross his mind.

[Andrew Santino]

That's true.

[Josh]

He's healthy.

[Andrew Santino]

He's a healthy, happy guy.

[Ben]

What is great, though, it sounds beautiful. Go to the beach, take some mushrooms. Mine.

[Andrew Santino]

Look.

[Ben]

Claudia's had two in our relationship. We've also been together 14 years, married for almost nine. First it was Vince Vaughn, now it's John Mayer. And you know what? I'm going to go with Vince. I think Vince Vaughn could give her a beautiful life. John Mayer. I think he cheat on her. I don't want that for her. Okay, so Vince Vaughn. Lovely, funny, seems smart. He's great. I'm in on Vince.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. What do you do? Laying on your back. I want to come in the room. He's too. He's going to be too fast for her, though. That's the problem. It's going to be.

[Ben]

She's lightning fast. Honestly, you're now making me think that maybe they're soulmates.

[Andrew Santino]

Maybe.

[Ben]

Is anybody faster than Claudia? Josh, she's lightning.

[Josh]

Yeah, yeah. The fastest.

[Andrew Santino]

I don't. I think. I think they'd both be good lovers. I'll say that. I think they'd both be fantastic lovers. I'd prefer John because of the Sing me to sleep. You know what I mean?

[Josh]

Right.

[Andrew Santino]

Make love to me. Sing me to sleep. I mean, that's. That's kind of my dream.

[Josh]

You ever met this John Mayor? Because I have. And he's a big kid.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah.

[Josh]

Huge head.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. Big, big guy.

[Josh]

You shake his hand, it's like holding bananas.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. He's a big boy. And imagine. You know what I mean? Imagine that on your wife and then singing, good God, he's a size 55 shoe.

[Ben]

I don't know. I didn't know what you were gonna say, Josh. You're like. You shake his hand like, wow, he's got a big dick. I'm like, jesus Christ. That's.

[Andrew Santino]

That's what he was alluding to.

[Josh]

It's almost for sure.

[Andrew Santino]

I do. I do know him, though. He's a great guy. He's a. He's a good dude. He's. I went to go watch. I went to a few dead end companies at the Sphere because of John.

[Josh]

Yeah, he did.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. He was very nice and got us tickets to that.

[Josh]

So.

[Andrew Santino]

I got to see Bob before he died. I don't know if you guys are Dead fans at all, but.

[Josh]

I'm not. But I know it's like the people who are. Are devoted as devoted can be.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. I'm not a Deadhead. I wouldn't even remotely try to get into that. They're. They're very protective of that world. I just enjoy the music very much, but I don't. I would never Be like, I love the dead. You can't say that to someone that loves the dead. They'll kill you.

[Josh]

Why? It's just. You're not a true fan.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. It's like a. You're a poser. You know? Even though I really enjoy it, so I don't even pretend to tell them that I like it. Like, if they go, you like that? Go, yeah, I like that. But I wouldn't tell them that. I listen to it all the time. I just. You don't want to. They're very protective. They're very. We heard the band first, and I don't want to get that Community is wonderful, but I don't even get near it because I don't want to pretend like I'm one of them.

[Josh]

For what?

[Andrew Santino]

It's not worth it.

[Josh]

I don't like tie dye that much.

[Andrew Santino]

Not at all.

[Josh]

Oh, Jerry. The ghost. Jerry.

[Andrew Santino]

They're coming for you now. Dude. Get ready.

[Josh]

Listen now.

[Andrew Santino]

You're so bright. It's gonna be.

[Josh]

Feet are flat. I'm on WillButrin Show. BIDS is crumbling. Okay.

[Andrew Santino]

It's over.

[Josh]

I got bigger blends.

[Ben]

Wait.

[Josh]

My wife, I think, would be with. With JFK Jr. If he was a middling NFL quarterback. Like, that would be the perfect.

[Andrew Santino]

Oh, so we're mashing lifestyles.

[Josh]

I'm gonna mesh.

[Ben]

Yeah. Now I'm trying to think of what NFL player looks, is very handsome. You're just saying. A handsome football player.

[Josh]

No, no. JFK Jr. With, like, the look and the bike and the. The perfect. Like, maybe just JFK Jr. Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

Didn't he play sports? Wasn't he an athlete?

[Josh]

Probably?

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, he was.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

I think they all were.

[Josh]

I think it's. It's JFK Jr. I think that would be the perfect.

[Andrew Santino]

Not RFK, though. Yeah.

[Josh]

RFK, Jr.

[Andrew Santino]

I love you very much. I. I just. I know you went from Jewish to me, but he's good.

[Josh]

Paige, I think we're back.

[Andrew Santino]

We are meant to be. Those have so many preservatives in it. Yeah, that guy. Interesting cat. Interesting cat. No, I think. I think Football player. Yes. Athlete. Yes.

[Josh]

Yes.

[Andrew Santino]

Right.

[Josh]

Yeah, I see that for us.

[Ben]

Yeah, I see that for her, for sure.

[Andrew Santino]

Irish Catholic girls do like athletes. For my friends that hate golf, I always say for people at home that are bored about golf and anything, when somebody goes, well, why do you like golf? I love the outdoors, and I want an activity. I'm a busybody, so you get to hang with your friends and do a little fun activity. And I'm a big. Like, a Big bar game guy. Like I love darts, I love pool, I love shuffleboard. And this is like that. It's like just a fun little quirky activity that you get to do outside. Easy sell for me.

[Josh]

Get your steps in.

[Andrew Santino]

I do get my steps. I walk most, most days. If I can play, I walk. My grandfather walked almost until he like got sick and died. He loved golf so much he'd walk and he couldn't really walk anymore. And he would still do it because that's the best. You feel it.

[Ben]

I think it's hard to play really well when you don't walk. Like once you start walking, you. You lose your groove when you hop in the cart. And the cart is fun, don't get me wrong. And there's place to hold your drinks and whatever, but walking the course, feeling the course, there's nothing better. And especially if you're microdosing mushrooms. My God. On the course you see these gorgeous trees. All of a sudden they're talking to you. It's sounds like the greatest day of all time.

[Andrew Santino]

Well, I was loving it yesterday. We had to. We were a little hungover from the night before. I know you're a. No. Are you a drinker or. You know.

[Ben]

I drink.

[Josh]

I drink is an alcohol company.

[Andrew Santino]

What's it called? I do.

[Ben]

It's called Spritz Society. So they're wine based sparkling cocktails. Think of like Aperol Spritz as we can them.

[Andrew Santino]

Oh, nice. God, that's the pits. Think about apparel spritzes. We can them.

[Josh]

I, I hear they're good. I might break my sobriety.

[Andrew Santino]

Please don't. Honestly, please don't.

[Josh]

18 years.

[Ben]

They're very low. So I'm a low person. 4%.

[Andrew Santino]

Don't step out now. And if you're going to step out, call me. But don't. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But call me.

[Josh]

Just do a handful of gummies. I'll just walk with you Golfing. I don't want to golf.

[Andrew Santino]

Would you could is, would like, would neur. Neurotropics in any way be a thing that like, would you do anything like that?

[Josh]

Like nootropics, like lion's mane, Like I do that. Like chaga.

[Andrew Santino]

Sure, sure, that's fine.

[Josh]

Alpha brain.

[Andrew Santino]

Well, some people have a border where they're like, I don't touch anything that

[Josh]

affects you from the neck up. Yeah, but like would they. Does that include caffeine? Does it include.

[Andrew Santino]

I'm saying for people, sobriety. Some people are crazy about it. Sure, right.

[Josh]

Like I'll do caffeine. Nicotine. What else? A Canadian Tylenol. No kidding. Wow.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah.

[Josh]

You ever have one of those?

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, those are wild. Boost you into space.

[Josh]

Yeah, dog.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. But I find. I find that somebody like Bobby's line is, pret is pretty defined. Although he's addicted to nicotine, so he's big on that. He quit smoking, though. This is his ninth or tenth day now, which we're very proud of. I told him, you gotta quit, dude.

[Josh]

You gotta quit.

[Andrew Santino]

You gotta quit, dude.

[Josh]

It's so funny because being a fan of Bobby's and being a huge fan of you and Bobby together, I started listening to Tiger Belly like six or seven years ago.

[Andrew Santino]

Never heard of the show.

[Josh]

It's not great.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah.

[Josh]

And I just remember he was going through, like. And this is all super public, so I don't think I'm talking outta school, but he had been sober for a really long time. And then as I'm listening to him on the pod and it just. And like, him and Kalila are having their things and stuff is going on where I've just been sober long enough where I'm like, he's going to use. I just could hear it, like. And I don't know why. And. And I. I never want to put that on anyone. And I never want to be like, it's so sobery to be judgmental of someone else's program. But you can just see these telltale signs when people stop going to meetings and. And just certain things. And then when he wound up, you know, saying like, I. I wound up using and now I'm. I'm back sober again. And I told him this to his face. It's like. But it's weird because I did. I had this, like, parasocial relationship where I was like, oh, Bobby, like, I wish, but I didn't know him then.

[Andrew Santino]

Well, I knew. I knew. I mean, I'm a son of addiction, so I know. I knew. I mean, I put him in rehab. We. I mean, me, as in our collective family, we did it twice. We put him back in rehab twice. So I've. I've dealt with it two times. One time was terrible. One time was very, very, very bad.

[Josh]

Scary.

[Andrew Santino]

It just sucked, man. It sucks to see your friend go through something that you know was coming and then you feel, you know, it's like, you knew this. I knew the storm was coming, but you can't really batten down the hatches for that. You just gotta deal with it when it comes, you know, there's nothing you can really do. Yeah, he just he like, he, when he goes, it's, it's, you know, it's unbelievable. It's like a, it's wild. But I'm happy he's, you know, we started the show. I've. I've told this story ad nauseam, but we started the show on the, you know, on the other side of his recovery, we, he, he relapsed and then went away to rehab. When he got out, we started the show. Part of the reason we started the show was because of that. I was filling in for him on Tiger Belly when he would go away a bunch and then he started relapsing. And when I was on the show, Kalila, to her credit and including some of the fans, were like, they should do a show together. Like, because we had been friends for years but never thought about it and we would have so much fun together. And then when he relapsed, I was probably one of the first, if not the first person that he came clean to.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

And pun intended. And he, he was like, when, you know, thank you for. Because I called him out and I was really upset about it and I don't want to get into the personal details of it, but with family stuff. And then I was like, hey man, you know, I think we should, we won't talk until you go away or I'll stop coming around until you go away. And he did, and he's like, called me and was like, hey, when I'm done, I think we should start that show. So he wanted like a clear mind, clear head. And he did. And that's literally what happened. He got out of rehab and we started the show and it happened on the heels of his father dying. That's why he relapsed. I'm not saying that's why he relapsed. I know there's no point.

[Josh]

A lot of stuff, yeah, it was insane.

[Andrew Santino]

His dad died and it was pretty tragic and traumatic and weird and he had so much pent up stuff because he grew up in a house of tremendous abuse, tremendous addiction. And so I think that's why I give him so much slack. Like I just. He grew up at such a toxic place. Like his dad was rest in peace, but a very toxic guy, you know, like did very bad stuff. So when he relapsed, I wasn't surprised. But when he wanted to like re. Shift when he got out, I was like, oh, this is, this is good timing. You'll be clean, you'll be clear headed, you'll be happy, you'll be Feeling like you again. And that's when we started Bad Friends. And then the pandemic hit. It was the greatest.

[Josh]

That was the greatest thing. Thank you, China, ever.

[Andrew Santino]

Thank you, China. Yeah. It was the greatest thing that ever happened to us.

[Josh]

You think Spotify has an investment in Wuhan?

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah.

[Josh]

Sorry.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. No, no, seriously, Spotify owns the Wuhan lab. Yeah, they do.

[Josh]

Well, they're part of Apple Podcasts.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. They're partners.

[Josh]

Your media has got a small stake in.

[Andrew Santino]

IHeartRadio is also. They operate the cafeteria there at Wuhan.

[Josh]

Podcast one, brought to you from Live. From Wuhan.

[Andrew Santino]

And Live Nation is starting to invest, but they're in some trouble right now.

[Josh]

The one thing with. I know. With loving an addict. Right. And obviously you talked about your history with it. You knew it so well. Like, and it's one thing. You people get it logically, but they can't always implement it. And I get it. It's like, if. If love could cure people, like, there'd be so little addiction in the world if you love it away.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah.

[Josh]

And it's so hard for people to draw that line and be like, hey, dude, until you go, I'm not going to be around.

[Andrew Santino]

Super hard to do.

[Josh]

I got to draw that boundary. And I give you a lot of credit for being like. Because you knew that you couldn't love him into getting better.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. Well, it put me in a weird position, to be honest with you. And Kalila called me, and, you know, again, we're not really speaking that out. We talked about it pretty publicly, but she called me and thanked me for being in a vulnerable position because it was hard. I wanted to tell a lot of people, you know, and I kind of kept it a little bit inside and quiet that I didn't tell everyone, that I didn't scream from the rafters. Bobby's relapsing. We got to get help. And a piece of me feel like I should have been louder about it to other people, but I was loud to him about it, but you don't know what to do. It's a terrible position because you're like, should I tell everybody? And then it's like, well, then I'm going to cause this big fight, big rift. It's going to. Which is probably the right move at the end of the day, but it's. It's really hard, dude. It's a tough, tough play. But she thanked me for the support because she was like, I know how hard he put you in a terrible position. Yeah. You know, because he wasn't telling anybody. He was hiding it. But very obvious to some of us that know, you know, when you know, you know. Some people don't know. Some people can really operate so, so well with their addiction that people around them have no clue that they're back.

[Josh]

I. I'm so. It's crazy how I was the scoundrel of all scoundrels. Like, down and dirty Fucking. Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

Bad boy.

[Josh]

Dirt. Big bad boy. And yet now I'm such a square. I can't tell what anyone tie. I remember my. My dear friend, my best friend had a bit of a relapse. And my wife, who's, like the most clean, perfect person ever was like, I think lapse. And I'm like, nah. Why? She goes, he kissed me on the mouth.

[Ben]

Oh,

[Josh]

yeah, maybe.

[Ben]

Yeah, maybe.

[Andrew Santino]

That sounds like that might be.

[Josh]

I was like, did he trip?

[Andrew Santino]

No. Yeah. No.

[Josh]

We were saying goodbye, and he just went from the lips. I was like, okay.

[Andrew Santino]

We do have. I do have family friends that do that. Like, my parents age, like, and they'll kiss you on the cheek, but it's real close to the mouth.

[Josh]

I think as they get older, they like a little lips. Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

They like a little corner. Yeah. Like one of my. My dad's friend will kiss. I like men and women on the cheek. And my wife loathes it. She's very much. Don't. The hug is fine, but they. She doesn't want, you know, doesn't want the European higher. Goodbye. And this guy will get. And it's right here. It's right on the crest. It's a little. That's why I grew a beard out, so he would stop kissing me on the face.

[Josh]

Well, bonus.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Josh]

Should we get into some weird news?

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah.

[Josh]

I'm ready me some weird. Okay. So this one. And I, you know, I thought of you because I think this is, you know, you are a master of accents. Well, in the new California Post, Americans find this regional accent to be the sexiest. And everyone better get their hearing checked. A new survey ranking the sexiest American accent suggests the fastest way to someone's heart might just be through their vocal cords. Americans found that a Southern draw spanning Texas, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, the Carolinas, Tennessee took the crown as the most attractive accent. Apparently, that slow, syrupy twang is doing something right.

[Andrew Santino]

Depends on what. So there's a lot of different dialectical changes to the Southern accent. Right. Well, yesterday I ran into a couple at. At dinner when I was eating alone before I went to the airport. I love a lonely meal Man. God, I love alone. Isn't it the best?

[Ben]

Calories don't count when you're alone, brother.

[Andrew Santino]

So good. I had kung pao chicken, egg rolls.

[Josh]

Oh, yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

Pork sticky bun. The pork sticky buns, you know, three Diet Cokes. Well, I was just feeling it, you know.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

I also had dessert, like a little bad boy. And I was eating alone, and this couple next to me, they would kind of pipe the. The gentleman had holding. You know, when you sit in the. The guys in the booth and the girls in the chair, you know this. And the girl always gives you the purse, put it next to you, because it's not on the. You know, we've all been. That guy.

[Josh]

Sure.

[Andrew Santino]

And he had a. It was a beautiful purse next to him. And I. And she's. She's. He's adjusting it because she's like, put it.

[Ben]

Put it over here.

[Andrew Santino]

And he tucked it behind him. And I go, it's a beautiful purse. And he goes, oh, thank you. And I go, it looks you. It looks really good with your outfit. And he goes, well, should it be mine? And I was like, it could. Yeah, it should be yours. But that Southern draw, that little, like,

[Josh]

you know, that's cute.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, that's cute.

[Josh]

But the.

[Andrew Santino]

The more, like, deeper Southern draws, that's not sexy and sultry, then it gets a little, you know, when it's very like the pair. When it's all on the mountains, too, when it's more this, like. Well, we was over there, and they. They. They didn't know what we were doing. And that. That's. No one. That's not turning on anybody's wife.

[Josh]

Ok, sure.

[Andrew Santino]

Y' all need something over here. I mean, that's. That's just like the Appalachian. You don't need that. But the sweet Southern draw, yeah, it's the same thing as, like. It's like a Boston accent can have a beautiful affectation to it, but when it's really thick. Boston, like. Like a girl. No offense, but girl Boston.

[Josh]

Yeah, it's a girl. Australian.

[Andrew Santino]

No, it's too much rough. I was getting out of my half hour when I first shot my half hour in Boston. I love that city so much. I'm about to go there in three days, and this girl is walking drunk outside of the show, and she goes, hey, my friend wants to fuck you. And I was like, oh, thank you. That's very nice. My girlfriend, five feet away, and then I turn in her, and this girl goes, I'm her friend. I want to fuck you. And I was like, thank you so much. My girlfriend's right here, but thank you so much. She goes, who cares? I was like, all right, dude. Yeah, that's dirty Boston. Who cares? Yeah, I'll fuck you in front of your fucking girlfriend.

[Ben]

Make her watch.

[Josh]

I'll fuck you in front of Kevin Garnett at the TD Garden. At the Garden drinking a Dunkin Donut.

[Andrew Santino]

I think the sexiest accent in America is British. Yeah, that's right. That's the sexiest American accent is British.

[Ben]

Definitely British. You hear it, you're like, oh my God, you're so hot. The guys, the guys in particular.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, the posh ones. But what American accent is the, is the sexiest? Because New York is not that sexy. Oh, the worst, Chicago is not sexy at all. Especially if you got a guy that's from a real south side Chicago that like, that's not hot, that's not sexy. Yeah, cute would be like up north, Minnesota, Wisconsin. That's very cute. Yeah, because it's, it's light, it's airy. You know what I mean? It's like, oh yeah, like all that stuff. It's real nice and sweet. Eh, like that's, it's like the Canadian border crossover. Those are really sweet people. I mean they talk so much behind your back, but they're really nice to your face.

[Josh]

I'm upset. I, I, I, probably same as you. I've probably spent two years of my life cumulative in Canada.

[Andrew Santino]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh]

I feel Canadian love.

[Andrew Santino]

Love can wannabe.

[Josh]

And like. And we're friends with a lot of hockey players because where we live in L. A. Like, a lot of them live. And it's. It's like, oh, bud, oh, bud, oh, bud. Like, Josh, you're fucking. Videos are rage bait. But. And I like it. I got my Tim hortons copy this morning, and I was dying. But yeah, but. Oh. And when he. When he did rivalry came out, There was this great video of a guy who was auditioning for season two, but he was, like, playing a real Canadian hockey townie auditioning for heated rivalry. So he's like, oh, you want to suck my dick butt?

[Andrew Santino]

Shut me off, pal. Hey, Bob on my pal. I never saw the show. Everyone's talking about this show. I've never seen it.

[Josh]

It's just a beautiful love story.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, see, I'm not interested. I'm not interested in most TV anymore. I'm being honest. I'm a. I'm one of these guys. I don't.

[Josh]

You do anything. The pit.

[Andrew Santino]

No, no, thank you. I'm not interested. I. Pluribus. That was the best show.

[Ben]

Mormon wives. What about the Mormons?

[Andrew Santino]

You see this show with reality television, I'm out. Unless it's. Unless it's a competition show. So the top shows in our house by far are great British baking show. Great is one of the greatest shows that television has ever given us. The great pottery throwdown. Shout out to the great pottery throwdown. Blown away. Blown away is good. The blown glass one, but it's not as strong as the British. British shows. You don't know. The great proud we throw down is so incredible. These people put their soul into their art live. And the emotions, I mean, it's similar to great great British baking show is great because they. These are people. They're not like, trying to be famous. They. They're great bakers. And so they get emotional. Like, you get a. You get a handshake from Paul Hollywood. My God, I cry sometimes.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

You know, But I highly recommend the. The. The great powder we throw it on.

[Ben]

It's.

[Andrew Santino]

It's like up in middle England. And all these people want to do is make incredible art, and that's all they care about. Instead, American television competition turns into how do I become famous when the show is over.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

That's the American standard there. It's, how do I make. How do I win this show? Because I want to show how good I am at making art. Just better than us sometimes.

[Ben]

That was literally the Bachelor. You saw that. They're literally. The contestants are suing ABC because they didn't get a chance to be famous.

[Andrew Santino]

They all want to be famous, and that's fine.

[Ben]

That's what's happening.

[Andrew Santino]

That's what they want to do. I know a couple people that have been on that show. You know, friend Wells Adams is a good buddy and you know, Wells. Wells was. He. He. He hosts or he's the bartender at Bats from Paradise. He was for years. And then he kind of is. He's in that world and he's a great dude. But I think, like, some people fist fight for fame on those shows. Then it just kind of surrounds the fun for me of those things.

[Ben]

It's just so funny how transparent it became. Like, it was a show, I know it. Like reality TV's fake, whatever, but, like, it was a show about trying to find love. And the fact that they're suing and they put a woman who's in a relationship in a domestic abusive relationship, by the way, on the show means that both the network and the contestants completely lost the plot of it entirely. And we're just chasing views and clout and fame. And to your point, the, like, the crux of, like, what the show's supposed to be is completely lost.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, totally. Well, it's hard when you're. It's hard when winning a show. Love is such an innocuous thing. It's hard to, like, win a show by finding love. That's kind of a weird. It's a hard sell. Anyway, so it. Yeah, that's why, you know, drama is what they're looking for. That's what they're really looking for. That's why all those people got mad when they would get them all drunk and put them in the room and they were like. This seems like a conflict of interest is you're getting people vulnerable and drunk on camera and then they have no control over what they're. What their character ends up looking like. As you shape it in a way. Give me the talent shows where they're competing. I want to see people compete.

[Josh]

I did a six episode cooking competition show that I hosted.

[Andrew Santino]

You cook?

[Josh]

No, but I hosted, baby.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, you can host. You can host.

[Josh]

And I. So we had these amazing, like, real reality TV producers. And you know, on these kind of shows, there's a dozen producers.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah.

[Josh]

Because they're all like getting every contestant and there's like eight or nine cameras going at a time. And I remember as soon as they turned the clock on. And as soon as there was like this set time and task, immediately drama started.

[Andrew Santino]

Oh yeah.

[Josh]

And it wasn't even. And I imagine there would be some manipulation. It wasn't, it just was like there being a prize and there being two hours to get this done meant like people were taking from others. They were cutting each other off. And I looked at a producer, I was like, wow, it's that easy, huh? He goes, yeah. He's like, and we're not even evil, right?

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. He's like, imagine if they were.

[Josh]

He's like, and we can be. Yeah, he's like, on the wrong show. He's like, there's plenty of evil producers.

[Andrew Santino]

Oh, absolutely. I mean it's. Yeah. A lot of times they're, they're, they are deliberate sociopaths that are at the helm of running those shows that know how to manipulate people's emotions and feelings, particularly a young man and woman that go on that show that are. Know that there's fame as a payoff and also know that the more drama you create, the better off you'll be.

[Josh]

More you're on screen.

[Andrew Santino]

Well, because the Internet has given them all that weight. Right? The Internet tells you do it and it's gonna get clicks. It's gonna be, I mean, naturally, if you're like a nice, sweet, well to do put together person, you know, you're not gonna do well on those shows.

[Josh]

Wait, why can't you watch tv? And I don't like that you say you're not a good actor and you did it when I was on your wonderful podcast. And I'm sure we'll be out soon.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, it comes out two weeks, one week next week.

[Josh]

But I don't like this. Do you say it? Here's my armchair psychiatrist. Been in this business too long, thought on it.

[Andrew Santino]

Sure.

[Josh]

You say it so that it doesn't hurt. It's bad because of how, how what a. This business can be if you like lessen yourself and say like, well, I'm not even that great.

[Andrew Santino]

I'm fine. I'm totally fine. I'm serviceable. I'm a very serviceable one.

[Josh]

Have your level of success without being great. You're great.

[Andrew Santino]

My hero was Jim Carrey. As a kid, I was obsessed. I wanted to be that. I want to be a stand up comedian who did comedic acting roles. And now that comedic acting is all but literally dead. I mean, no one's doing it anymore. It's gone. I, it kind of discouraged me a little bit from the business because I was like, well, I didn't take this serious the way that real actors did who went to school, who go to training all the time. Like, this was for me to be a comedian on screen. That's what I wanted. I wanted what Jim did. And so now it's. I don't know. I've lost my love a little bit. I want to do it so bad again, but it's just. It's not. It's dissipated. So I've kind of started to go, well, I'm not good enough to be in that realm with these people that are actor. Actors. Like, that's. I'm. Have no business in there. I have business being a goofball. But the goofball stuff is dead. It's strange. Nobody wants goof shit anymore. They want, you know, a ninth Avengers or whatever is happening and then revamp properties, and I have no business over there. Like, I just. I don't get it. It's just not for me. But, you know, also, it is hard having.

[Ben]

Being.

[Andrew Santino]

Being an orange person. Because never in your life did you ever read a script where it was like, and the handsome redheaded man walked in the room and swept the girl off her feet.

[Josh]

Now we got Jesse Plemons.

[Andrew Santino]

Handsome redheaded guy.

[Ben]

Peter Pan was Peter Pan. Redhead. No, blonde.

[Josh]

Yeah. And androgynous.

[Andrew Santino]

And I'm not making fun of Jesse Plemons, but I'm saying traditional handsome. Like, let's. Nobody writes redhead. Nobody writes redhead. Traditional, handsome.

[Josh]

Weasley. Harry Potter.

[Andrew Santino]

You don't even know his real name.

[Josh]

Rupert Grint, is it? I don't.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, yeah. We all literally went. I think that's right. We don't even know.

[Josh]

I trusted it.

[Ben]

Josh knows too much about.

[Andrew Santino]

He does.

[Ben]

Of course. You knew Rupert Grinch.

[Josh]

He beat me out for a role on some.

[Andrew Santino]

We'll just never be the guy that the girl falls in love with. So they can't slot us into that. We have to be the Wacky Girl. Goofy. Whatever. But the Wacky Goofies are gone. They don't want Wacky Goofies anymore.

[Josh]

But they got. They needed. I remember.

[Andrew Santino]

Tell me a Wacky Goofy. What's a new Wacky Goofy?

[Josh]

What's a new Wacky Goofy?

[Andrew Santino]

They're bringing back.

[Ben]

There aren't any.

[Andrew Santino]

No, thank you.

[Ben]

There aren't. No.

[Andrew Santino]

They're bringing back Scrubs. They're bringing back Malcolm in the Middle. They're bringing back all these old shows. And you're like, where's new Wacky Goofy? We can't do new Wacky Goofy anymore. We Got to bring back the old also Malcolm in the Middle. Cranston, what are you doing? Sorry. What are you doing, dog?

[Josh]

We just had Frankie Mutants on the body.

[Ben]

No.

[Andrew Santino]

Good for him.

[Ben]

Great. Yeah, he was great. That doesn't change the fact. Bryan Cranston, what are you doing? Thank you.

[Andrew Santino]

Thank you. What are you. That's. That's my point.

[Ben]

These things can hold the room for both.

[Andrew Santino]

Yes. Thank you. Thank you.

[Josh]

Bryan Cranston is the best version of, like. Because there are things that I've done. If I was nominated for an Academy Award, and then they were like, they're

[Andrew Santino]

gonna do Knock on wood, God, you

[Josh]

know, God willing, one day. But, like. And then they were like, they want to do a. Like a Drake and Josh go to space movie.

[Ben]

You would never.

[Josh]

I probably wouldn't.

[Andrew Santino]

No, you wouldn't. Thank you. You would never.

[Ben]

You would literally. You would get your Academy Award and you would rather be dead than ever be associated with a Drake and Josh reboot.

[Josh]

Okay.

[Andrew Santino]

But I love how honest he keeps you because he calls you. Oh, you're. That's. You wouldn't do it. He knows you well enough to know. No, you wouldn't. You would go. I don't think that's right. I don't think that's the move. And by the way, doesn't need the money.

[Josh]

Sure.

[Andrew Santino]

And doesn't really need the reattachment to the project. It's straight. It's almost like, pass the baton.

[Josh]

Agreed. But, like, he knows my dream is to do, like, a Hallmark movie. Like, I really, really.

[Andrew Santino]

I can get you into one of those.

[Josh]

Oh, I've been offered, but I don't. Because it doesn't feel like the time. I think it would be hilarious to be like a Jewish Christmas movie and do a Jewish Christmas movie.

[Andrew Santino]

Love you should have done that. That's funny.

[Josh]

But I didn't get nominated. I need the first part.

[Andrew Santino]

You need the nomination first. Have you been nominated for anything?

[Josh]

I won an Independent Spirit award once. A couple Kids Choice Awards. God bless you all. Thank you.

[Andrew Santino]

So Kids Choice for sure. You won. You probably got. How many Nickelodeon balloons do you have at home?

[Josh]

I get a couple. I get a couple blimps.

[Andrew Santino]

Blimps. That's what they are. That's right. Yeah, the blimps. Yeah.

[Josh]

Gotta go. A blimp for a blimp.

[Andrew Santino]

But you're going to. You're. You're. Your thing is coming. I feel like something with you is coming.

[Josh]

Oh, God. It's happening right now. Three of us.

[Andrew Santino]

I feel like something is coming. For him. Don't you believe that?

[Ben]

I always do.

[Andrew Santino]

I always do.

[Ben]

It's funny when he said to you don't do that self doubt on your acting. That's the same thing with Josh.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah. I think you have to have a little bit of self hate to. To want to do this for a living. I'm going to give you one suggestion though. Even though you've been in it longer than I am. No more. No more. No more knick knacky tattoos. Cut out the knick knacky tattoos.

[Josh]

They're my kids names.

[Andrew Santino]

Cut it out. But you don't know your kids names. Cut it out.

[Josh]

Why? It's not.

[Andrew Santino]

I don't like knick knacky tattoos. If you're gonna get a tattoo, get a tattoo. Don't be a knick knacky tattoo.

[Ben]

Guys, do you have tattoos?

[Andrew Santino]

No, I don't, I don't. I. This is my body is my town temple. I'm gonna be. I'm gonna be buried in a Jewish cemetery. I can't have tattoos.

[Ben]

You know, save the plot next to me, please, please.

[Andrew Santino]

No, that one's for your mother. We all know that mother.

[Ben]

And no, she's coming in with me. She's in my casket.

[Andrew Santino]

We're together. No, the knick knacky tattoos is a big trendy now and it's cool. But get the whole thing. If you're gonna do it. Get a tattoo, man.

[Josh]

It's seven years.

[Andrew Santino]

Well, wait a minute. Okay, this one is what? That one's your kid.

[Josh]

Mom.

[Andrew Santino]

That's mom.

[Josh]

The kid.

[Andrew Santino]

Kid. And then a rose.

[Josh]

That's. I liked it.

[Andrew Santino]

What's the other one? I'm not making fun of it. I just don't get it. Kid, kid. And then kid, Jew. You know, many years ago they used to tattoo you guys. And it wasn't a good thing.

[Josh]

I was gonna do one of those.

[Ben]

An insane tattoo. Just numbers on numbers.

[Josh]

Oh my God.

[Ben]

That is, by the way, talk about claiming back our power. That's how we claim back our power.

[Josh]

That's it.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, it is true.

[Josh]

That would be sweating.

[Andrew Santino]

That would be off the Nazis. The hard, hardest way is getting a tattoo. Yeah.

[Josh]

Getting your sick.

[Andrew Santino]

How many more do you have?

[Josh]

That's it.

[Andrew Santino]

He has none. You have none, right?

[Ben]

No, I couldn't do it.

[Josh]

He's a good boy. He's the best boy.

[Ben]

But I also couldn't pull it off. Even like if I wanted to, I couldn't. I always wanted an earring. I can't have an earring. You ever, you ever have an earring, no earrings, Nothing.

[Andrew Santino]

Nothing. This is. I'm a clean slate. I don't want. I don't. Like. There's nothing I want on me forever. I don't. I don't even want me forever. So I don't want. You know what I mean? I'm. I. This is tough to be in this skin. So I. Although my friends that are tattoo artists or friends that have them always say your skin is perfect for tattoos because boy, would the colors pop on your pale skin.

[Ben]

Imagine like a blue. Like. Like something colorful. You get like a nice dragon or something. Like right here, a dragon, green dragon.

[Andrew Santino]

Like, I'm. When I'm 13, that's what it was. Because I would go back to when I was 12 or 13, and I'd be like, just always wanted a race car on my arm.

[Josh]

I have both my ears pierced. Because around season three, at 290 pounds on Drake and Josh, I was like, oh, this will dist. Should we get to what are you nuts, Ben?

[Ben]

Yeah, let's do it.

[Josh]

Okay, our closing segment. It's called our what do you nuts Moment of the week. It's your gripes with people, places and things both big and tall, whatever's sticking in your craw.

[Andrew Santino]

My God.

[Josh]

Take your time to think about it. Ben and I will start. Yeah, we'll take it away. Ben, what do you got?

[Ben]

Everybody loves to rip on Disney adults. And I'm here to say, yesterday, having gone to Disney on Ice, that if you are not. If you're pretending that you're not a Disney adult, it's a complete. What are you nuts? You hate your children. Like, you're sitting there, they're literally playing Aladdin. She's. Or he's sitting on your lap. They're singing, they're dancing, they're having a great time. You remember it. You know the fucking song. You want to sing the song. You're a Disney adult. I'm not saying that you have to wear Mickey Mouse on your T shirts and walk around all this stuff. Whatever. When you're in a Disney environment, you're a Disney adult. Own it. What are you nuts? I think it's just. It's too much. It's too much hate on the Disney adults. Let's let people be happy. Let's let people be happy.

[Andrew Santino]

Can I get back at that?

[Josh]

Yeah, you can.

[Ben]

You can.

[Andrew Santino]

So you're. You're. You've conflated two things. You going with your children to Disney. Totally fine. And legitimize. Healthy Disney adults are those that Go without children. Those.

[Josh]

So then that's a. That's.

[Ben]

That's a Woody and Nuts. That's another. What are you, nuts? Those people. That can be yours. That can be yours.

[Andrew Santino]

I did a whole. I did three jokes about it in my special, and Disney was very mad about it because they own Hulu. And I put a special out, and they were like, please don't joke about Disney adults. They're our biggest revenue stream. I was like, well, they're weird.

[Ben]

I'm sorry.

[Andrew Santino]

What do you want me to do?

[Ben]

So Disney adults are the adults that went to Disney on Ice alone with no kids.

[Andrew Santino]

That's right. What do you. What is your.

[Ben]

Those are what we. Those are.

[Andrew Santino]

We call creeps. What are you nuts? Bring a kid. Bring a kid. Bring a kid. You can't go solo.

[Ben]

No, you can't go solo.

[Josh]

My one of you nuts is don't close down the government. It's the government.

[Andrew Santino]

Close it down.

[Josh]

Keep it going. Just like, keep the important shit open. Like the tsa, you. And this is going at all sides. Both sides, Every side. You politician for fucks, you don't get paid. But our TSA people, they should get paid, right? The real workers, the army.

[Andrew Santino]

The army, the Coast Guard.

[Josh]

Yeah, maybe they shouldn't miss a fucking check.

[Andrew Santino]

Yeah, give them the money.

[Josh]

Yeah, but you. Congressman who basically, somehow, luckily invested in Nvidia at the perfect time the last 50 years in a row, like, maybe you miss a check and suddenly, maybe y' all will figure out how to make the shit work.

[Andrew Santino]

My what are you nuts is going to be. I have so many layers. This that you're talking about. People have gripes with. I mean, that's like all day, every day. I just text you every. Every five seconds that something happens. My biggest recent gripe right now is speakerphone in public. What are you nuts? What the is wrong with you? Walking around a public space or in a restaurant talking on speakerphone. So I deliberately. My wife hates it, but I will out loud go, let's put it up to your ear. I'll say it. Put it up to your ear. Yeah, and they'll what? Put it up to your ear. Hold it. Get headphones or put it up to your fucking head.

[Josh]

Right?

[Andrew Santino]

You can't be on speakerphone in public in a public space. You can do it outside, walking around. Fine. You're inside of a restaurant. You're. It happened on the fucking plane yesterday. This chick, these two girls. These two girls, and they're yelling and screaming the whole flight and talking loud and. And by the way, she was rude to the flight attendant, which also pisses me off. Something insane when they're rude to the flight attendants. Because what a disastrously annoying job to be barked orders at all the time. And she's on fucking speakerphone while we're sitting there. And the woman asked her multiple times, you can't be on the phone. We're about to take off. Stayed on the phone. Didn't give a shit. So put on some fucking headphones. What are you nuts? Speakerphone in a public space with other people. Rude, disgusting, and you should be flogged in public.

[Ben]

Josh and I independently have been in steam rooms with a guy on speakerphone in the steam room.

[Josh]

Yeah. And I'm in there trying to hook up with a dude.

[Andrew Santino]

How am I supposed to get hanged?

[Ben]

Hang up so we can make out.

[Andrew Santino]

I thought about going and buying headphones while I travel, because I travel so much. Buying sets of extra headphones, like the little throwaway ones. You get to the gas station.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

And then just handing them to people on speakerphone. I think it's a good bit. Not saying a word. Good bit. And them, you know, because you can go to the gas station and they sell them at the counter for like five bucks. The little to go headphones. And I was like, I'm just gonna buy 10 of those and just go around when I'm on tour, on the road, in airports, hotels, all the. That. The travel world that I live in, and just give it to them. Smile, walk away. Don't say anything else.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

I don't even need the payback. I don't even need to know they did it. But just as a gentle. You just a gentle. We don't need to hear your conversation or your friends. Like the train. Oh, my God. People love doing it on the train. It's just. I don't get it. I don't understand. Get off, please. Put it up to your head.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Andrew Santino]

Get cancer like the rest of us. Put it up to your face or get headphones.

[Josh]

God bless.

[Andrew Santino]

God bless. What are you nuts?

[Josh]

Andrew Plug. Where should people go? Tell the people.

[Andrew Santino]

Tell the people that. Cheeto Santino on all social media. Well, on Instagram, I guess. I'm not on Twitter or any of that stuff anymore. Gone. Twitter, Facebook, gone. But Cheeto, Santino. And then watch Bad Friends, watch Whiskey Ginger, which Josh will be on coming up here or is already on. And go to andrewsantino.com for tickets to come see me live. I'm doing a couple of. Couple shows. I'm not touring this year. Finally. I'm just doing casino pop around dates to try to warm up for a theater tour next year. Yeah, come see me.
