Transcript

[Josh Peck]

The following podcast is a dear media production. Two Jews, both big and tall. No subject too small for the Good Guys. A mother's dream premium podcast team. Make it your weekly routine. It's a good Guys. And if you don't give us five stars. What are you nuts?

[Ben Soffer]

What are you nuts? Yeah, we're the good guys.

[Josh Peck]

They're not the great guys. We're just the good of the good.

[Ben Soffer]

Of the good guys.

[Josh Peck]

Welcome back to the Good Guys podcast. We are in our fourth trimester here. We're sitting here with two queens.

[Claudia Autry]

We.

[Josh Peck]

This is just an opportunity for you guys to just. To just yell at us. For the next hour, it's Claudia Autry and Paige O'Brien. Wow. We're so lucky.

[Paige O'Brien]

Claudia, I want to know how, because I know that you guys aren't really, like, buying stuff. Are you still not buying things for the baby?

[Claudia Autry]

And we are, so. It's. It's complicated. Like, do I have a couple of boxes in my home of things that I have ordered? Yes. Have you just assembled? Yeah. And they also, like, they're just, like, the real necessities, the basics, like, nothing exciting or fun or, like, you know, designer. It's probably the hardest part of this journey. I'm such a planner, and I'm, like, so crazy. Like, I love to get everything ready. And I see these on TikTok, who are seriously in the first trimester and have full, like, nurseries with wallpaper and, you know, molding. And I'm so jeal, but it's just not the way our peeps do things. So I have in a box, I have a crib, I have a stroller, and I have a dresser. I would have wallpaper, but I haven't put any of it up. It's all in boxes.

[Paige O'Brien]

So will you wait till you're, like, at the hospital and have someone do it for you? Or how does that work?

[Claudia Autry]

So the way that it works is, like, you have, like, a trusted friend take care of it while you're at the hospital. Although most of the things the way that I envision and of course, everything I've envisioned so far, like, it's not even going my way. So I'm sure it'll go differently. But the way I envision is that baby's in bassinet with us in our room for, like, the first couple of months. Like, there's no rush actually, on getting a nursery done. It's just, like, nice to have. I want to take pictures 100%.

[Paige O'Brien]

I feel like it's. It's so not necessary. But, like, I was thinking about you last night because I also have other kids. So, like, it's been kind of stressful to be like, okay, I have to set up a nursery room now. I have to combine the kids rooms together. But I was thinking about you. I'm like, the fact that she can't. That she's not doing any of this is, like, stressing me out because I just want it to be done and I don't want to think about it anymore.

[Claudia Autry]

Well, let me ask you something, because I was having this conversation with, like, fighting, literally fighting with people in the comment section on TikTok.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah.

[Claudia Autry]

Because, like, of course, all I do since the second I found out I'm pregnant is complain. Like, my back hurts, I'm tired, I'm hungry, I'm fat. Like, everything is bothering me, and that's my right. And a lot of the reaction that I get is like, well, imagine doing it with a toddler. And it's like, okay, well, your experience is your experience, mine is mine. Like, And I imagine. And I honestly, like, anybody who's pregnant with a toddler, like, you have my absolute sympathy. That sounds fudgeing. Horrible. And you've been both. Right. And now you're pregnant with two kids. So, like, how much worse is it really?

[Paige O'Brien]

It's. You're just a little bit more, I think, tired in a different way because you're just like, my body is so physically tired. And then you're also just exhausted from, like, chasing after your kids. That it is harder. But, like, I think it might. It doesn't. I don't know. It's all hard. Like, I think the physical things, like, I think that you'll hopefully will experience that. Like, the tired and the pain and, like, the things you're feeling now doesn't, like, it's a different kind of tired once the baby's here. Like, obviously you're sleeping as much, but it's definitely like, a different kind of tired.

[Claudia Autry]

Like, I take the more enjoyable. No, way more enjoyable tired. Like, yeah, baby, that's bad.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah. Like, there's times where you're like, especially with your first kid, you're just so excited and it's all so new that there's like, days where you're like, I don't. Like, the first few days, you're like, I don't even want to sleep. Like, I don't want to take off of them. You know, I love that.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah.

[Paige O'Brien]

So then it's just like, fun and exciting, and then, you know, there's Definitely you're tired. But then you can also hand the baby off to someone during the day and be like, can you hold the baby so I can sleep?

[Claudia Autry]

That's exciting. About, like, doing this with a partner is, you know, pregnancy is. You know, Ben is amazing. You really have been just amazing. Love you, love you, love you. Yada, yada. But there's. And I feel like you're doing the most and the best a husband can do, which is relatively nothing. Like, you can make me meals and you can rub my back, but, like, you so massive.

[Josh Peck]

Claudia, do you know how useless men are? Do you know? Absolutely.

[Claudia Autry]

I know, I know. But what I'm saying is, like, here I have somebody who's doing the most. Like, seriously, there's nothing more Ben could do. I know. If he could crawl into my body and take all this away, like, he would. Like, he would help, but so even that, like, it helps, obviously, but it's not even close to what I'm doing. Sure. I didn't mean to. I'm trying to give you a compliment.

[Ben Soffer]

If you have a weird way of doing it.

[Claudia Autry]

No, but it's just, like, so when the baby's actually here, then, like, we can actually do not equal parts, like, with breastfeeding, but, like, you can do a lot more than you're doing now. And that I'm definitely looking forward to. And of course, anyone who wants to come over and help do the dishes, like, I welcome you, please come over. Bring your rubber gloves.

[Paige O'Brien]

It's true. I think that you just get. Also, like, I was thinking about it on my way here too. I'm just looking forward to, like, being able to sleep for even 10 minutes. Like, I'm so uncomfortable when I'm pregnant, and sleeping on my side is not ideal for me.

[Claudia Autry]

Oh, my God, I hate it.

[Paige O'Brien]

I'm tossing and turning, and I'm like, once the baby's here, like, I can sleep on my stomach if I want. And even if it's for 10 minutes, I'll have a good. I'll have a good 10 minutes, and then I'll be a new woman.

[Claudia Autry]

I'm so glad you brought that up. Everybody has, like, a list of things they can't wait to do, like smoke crack or take a zempic. And obviously, like, one of the first things I'm gonna do is take my Ozempic and have a big cocktail, and then I'm gonna take the fattest fudge nap on my stomach. Like, I'm a true stomach sleeper. Like, before I got, like, never slept on My back never slept on my side. Sleeping on your side is a special form of torture. They should do it to the people at Guantanamo. Like, the way your entire left side goes completely numb, so you're forced to then wake up and flip. You flip what, like, at least 10 times a night.

[Paige O'Brien]

At least. And if you have a pregnancy pillow, you're.

[Claudia Autry]

You're trapped. I'm like, I have such a complicated relationship.

[Paige O'Brien]

Awful.

[Claudia Autry]

With the pregnancy pillow. I hate her and I love her. Like, I don't know if it's the best thing that was ever invented or I wish I never discovered it.

[Paige O'Brien]

You know, I have a little wedge, a little, like, thing to put in between my legs. That helps because I had a pregnancy pillow for two days and I gave it to my sister. I was like, I hate this. I don't ever want this to be anywhere near me.

[Claudia Autry]

No. And you just keep discovering the beauty of pregnancy is, like, you keep discovering the crazy things that can go wrong in your body. Like, I remember the first time I experienced, like, without sleeping with something between my legs, your hips kind of lock, right? And it's very painful. And I didn't know what that was. And I'm. We were in a hotel, and I, like, thought I was having sleep paralysis. I couldn't fucking move my lower body. I'm like, what the hell is going on? They're like, well, you're not sleeping with them in between your legs. I'm like, okay. It's just. It's really insane. Every time you have an ailment, I'm like, there's no way that this is related to pregnancy. No, it is. I have carpal tunnel. It's pregnancy related.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah, but you found that's real. They also say, like, your thumbs. I don't know why. After having the baby, I was like, oh, my wrist hurts. Or, like, my thumb hurts. My friend's like, oh, you have mom thumb. And I'm like, what's mom thumb? I don't even know what that is. I've never heard of it.

[Josh Peck]

The newest sitcom coming to Fox, Mom Thumb with Geeky Bummer.

[Ben Soffer]

But you found a cure for most of your remedies via Eastern medicine, right? Would you like to talk about your journey down east?

[Claudia Autry]

I don't, because I know how much joy it brings you. But, yes, I did start acupuncture in an earnest way to try. And I've heard it. It can help with breach baby. But she obviously got me in there. She started asking me questions. And one thing about me. You asked me questions. I'M going to unload on you. And I'd had a particularly tough day that day. So I was, like, crying, being like, I can't sleep. My legs hurt. I'm so sweaty. I've acid reflux. I was choking in my sleep. And so she did all these pressure points, Let me tell you. It's only been a few days, but I am unfortunately a believer. It's very. And this is the best thing to ever happen to Ben because he's always trying to push his, like, herbs and shit on me.

[Josh Peck]

I mean, started.

[Claudia Autry]

I know, I'm.

[Ben Soffer]

They work.

[Claudia Autry]

They were so Western to my core. Like, I believe in Western medicine, but let me tell you, Josh, you should give it a try.

[Josh Peck]

It's not even that with your beautiful husband Ben. My thing is, like, these herbs you're taking is a garden hose on a forest fire, my boy. Get on a fucking treadmill.

[Claudia Autry]

No. And it's like, how. How good can your herbs be? How authentic? They're from Whole Foods. Like, they can. They're bezos. A. Bezos herbs.

[Ben Soffer]

They can be great. We're down. I have a new one. I have a new one. Josh, I spoke to you about Dose. We spoke about Dose.

[Josh Peck]

You didn't speak to me. So a shooter, a sniper. One of our listeners in my DMs sees that Ben has posted a story going, should I take this followers? What do we think? And she said, he's taking another supplement. Go get him.

[Claudia Autry]

I.

[Ben Soffer]

The way I love Dose, I've taken it every day for a week. I have the cleanest liver this side of the river, whatever that expression is. And it amazing.

[Claudia Autry]

Josh, I'm so glad you're on my side with this. Obviously, we come at it from two different points of view. Like, I come at it because I have this little wicker basket that we keep in our kitchen for our vitamins. Like, we are two relatively like normal people. We don't need that many vitamins. I have my prenatals, you know, and we are constantly outgrowing the wicker basket. I have, like, sized. I've sized up on wicker baskets. We're now at the largest size, and we are completely full. So every time a new supplement arrives, it's like the bait of my existence trying to reorganize this Tetris wicker basket. And so I hate the, the, the supplements. Not because I don't think they don't work. I don't know enough about them, but because, like, you rotate in, you don't rotate anything out.

[Ben Soffer]

Correct. You're Right. You're absolutely right.

[Claudia Autry]

How am I supposed to live like that?

[Ben Soffer]

You're right. I could go and throw away. I haven't taken lion's mane in probably five months. I could probably get rid of that, but lion's mane is good.

[Josh Peck]

I took one this morning.

[Claudia Autry]

Now, don't encourage him. We almost got one out.

[Ben Soffer]

Right now, all I'm on is dose. I took magnesium last night, a turmeric pill in the morning, Azertec in the morning. What else did I take? Neutrophil, of course.

[Claudia Autry]

Of course.

[Ben Soffer]

And. Yeah, that's it. Nothing crazy. Nothing crazy. She tried to throw me. She tried to throw away my creatine the other day. I said, paws off. I might go back on that huge.

[Claudia Autry]

Tub on our fucking counter. It's like, we have to start making space for things. You know, we are going to have a lot of new things coming in the home. And, like, I love to purge. Now, in Ben's defense, I definitely purge too much. Like, Ben will be like, hey, where's. You know that keepsake my father gave me 15 years ago? I'm like, oh, it's in the trash.

[Josh Peck]

Where's my Z necklace?

[Claudia Autry]

I am. I literally. Jackie calls me the sweeper. And I. I often sweep too close to the sun. I can acknowledge my own shortcomings, but whatever I am, you are the oppressor. You are the opposite.

[Ben Soffer]

I've gotten so much better. I'm. I really am not, like, I don't. I don't own anything. The only thing I own is supplements.

[Claudia Autry]

It's so true. And it's too many.

[Josh Peck]

Your passport, last week.

[Ben Soffer]

I own nothing. I own supplements. That's it.

[Claudia Autry]

No, honestly, like, all of my assets.

[Ben Soffer]

Are in these supplements.

[Claudia Autry]

I. My sweeping is definitely heightened with the baby coming. But you haven't. You haven't met me where I'm at.

[Ben Soffer]

Josh, Our closets are barren.

[Claudia Autry]

That's not true.

[Ben Soffer]

We own.

[Claudia Autry]

Fucking true.

[Ben Soffer]

We own nothing. One and every and every inch that I have is slowly but surely being taken over by you. Don't think that I don't see the way that you've taken. Taken that.

[Claudia Autry]

Not to be rude. You wear the same pair of pants every day. What the fuck do you need a dresser for? Okay? You have one pair of pants, by the way.

[Ben Soffer]

It's so true. These pants double as suit pants.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, Please. Okay, like, spare me. I know you and your tricks.

[Ben Soffer]

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah, but once the baby comes, you're going to get so much stuff. I'm with you, Claudia. Like, I am like, I need to get rid of half of this room in order because I just know people will send stuff and, and then I have to get all the baby clothes out. And I'm like, no.

[Claudia Autry]

Let me ask you guys a question. Like, we obviously have our unique set of issues. We live in New York City. Storage is limited. You guys live in a home. Do you still have these problems?

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah, I do. I think. I think my kids are kind of hoarders. I've realized, like, Max keeps everything. He keeps everything and he remembers everything. So he'll be like, he's kind of like Ben. He'll be like, mom, where did that art project go? And I'm like, the toilet? Yeah, it's in the trash somewhere.

[Claudia Autry]

It went to go live at a farm.

[Paige O'Brien]

I. I've been getting rid of a lot of stuff. I think their rooms are like pretty close to being done, which is nice. But I'm like, I get rid of. If I get new stuff, I'm getting rid of something to make space. I'm going to do it.

[Ben Soffer]

Your. Were your parents that way, Paige?

[Paige O'Brien]

No, but I shared a room with my sister growing up and I feel like she, I was very neat and clean and she wasn't or she kind of was, but now she's not. So like, there was a certain time where we got to like high school or one day I just moved her out. Like my older siblings went to college and I just moved her out of our room.

[Ben Soffer]

I'm about you, Josh. I don't know about you, Josh. My parents keep and kept everything. Everything. So it's a, like, Ben comes from.

[Claudia Autry]

A family of keepers. I come from a family of sweepers.

[Ben Soffer]

So the way that I have adjusted to being a full blown sweeper, like my parents still to this day, like, I will go into the kitchen and I will find, I don't know, like an old phone. Like, why do you have my phone? My Nokia.

[Claudia Autry]

Right.

[Ben Soffer]

It's got. You don't need to keep my Nokia. You throw it away.

[Paige O'Brien]

You have. I don't even have a lot of stuff.

[Ben Soffer]

Like they keep everything.

[Josh Peck]

Growing up, my mom and I, when we lived in the city, we only ever had a studio or a one bedroom that we shared. So it was tight quarters. Tight, tight, tight, tight, tight. And so we didn't have that much stuff and we didn't ever have like. I remember in New York, people like you go over to a friend's house. Like we're going to go down to our storage closet, like in the third, like in the depths of the floor. Boiler room. What is this magical place? But then we had a two bedroom apartment when we lived in LA because it was only like 2100amonth and we started accruing some stuff. I. I definitely have some things, but it was all free, baby. It's all freebies or it was on sale.

[Claudia Autry]

Josh, can I ask you a question? What was your experience being an only child? Did you like it?

[Josh Peck]

It's all I knew. I didn't have anything to compare to. No. But it was deeply lonely, shattering.

[Claudia Autry]

It was.

[Josh Peck]

Yeah, it was. I didn't. We didn't. We had no family and it was just my mom and I. So it was certainly hard. I mean, my mom and I had a great time. We'd spend the weekends at a N S or Manhattan mall. Not sure if you're familiar with it.

[Claudia Autry]

Of course, 36 and 7.

[Josh Peck]

Yes. So we traipse around the food court, get some chicken teriyaki and treat ourselves to some JNCO jeans and a Sam Goody cd. But yeah, but it was hard. I definitely would have loved siblings.

[Paige O'Brien]

Do you find it harder when you were a kid to be an only child or now as an adult? Like, do you wish you had siblings?

[Josh Peck]

No. Now I feel like I have enough people in my life, like, yeah, I'm good. And we. I think we maybe we talked about this Claude, on our. The first time I came on the toast when we were talking about my book. But I have three half siblings that are out there.

[Claudia Autry]

I remember that from your book.

[Josh Peck]

Whom I have no interest in contacting.

[Claudia Autry]

But do they know about you? Yes. What do they know about you?

[Paige O'Brien]

No, I don't. We don't think so. We don't think.

[Josh Peck]

We don't know if.

[Claudia Autry]

I think if they knew, they would want to meet you because you're famous.

[Ben Soffer]

Yes. They would be coming for a check.

[Paige O'Brien]

They're very.

[Claudia Autry]

They're very coming for a piece of the good guys.

[Ben Soffer]

Yeah.

[Claudia Autry]

Oh, they're old.

[Paige O'Brien]

They're, like, in their 70s.

[Claudia Autry]

Oh. Oh, oh, never mind.

[Ben Soffer]

They definitely don't owe you, by the way. Maybe. Josh. Maybe one day you'll get a check in the mail.

[Claudia Autry]

Yes.

[Ben Soffer]

Maybe they know about you and you're gonna inherit something Fat fortune or, like, a boat. Maybe a boat.

[Josh Peck]

Maybe I should start appealing.

[Paige O'Brien]

Doubtful. Would have thought it already happened.

[Josh Peck]

Sorry your dad died, but they inherited, so maybe I can. I can sue their pants off.

[Ben Soffer]

You 100% right now need to develop a relationship with all three older half siblings, because you could. You never know. You never know. Yeah, they could leave you that stack, right?

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah. But do we. Do we know that they're wealthy? They could be, like, also homeless.

[Ben Soffer]

But I'm banking on them being wealthy.

[Josh Peck]

I've. I've stalked them on Facebook. They seem to all be doing well. I know my father was wealthy. To be a real sterling gentleman. If it were not for the fact that he wanted nothing to do with me.

[Claudia Autry]

Right. Aside from the whole, like, abandonment thing.

[Ben Soffer]

Yeah.

[Paige O'Brien]

His grandkids really loved him. His kids really loved him. The photos on Facebook that we've seen are all very lovely, actually. Have you ever seen what his dad looks like, Ben?

[Claudia Autry]

Isn't that the duality of man? You know, abandoning your children?

[Ben Soffer]

I think I have seen. He. He was rather tan, right?

[Paige O'Brien]

It's wild. He is Josh. They are identical twins. It is so crazy. I'm gonna text you guys a picture. Actually, I have.

[Josh Peck]

Wait, wait. You guys talk.

[Claudia Autry]

Send it. Paige, send it here.

[Paige O'Brien]

I have.

[Claudia Autry]

How do we receive it?

[Josh Peck]

Which one are you gonna send?

[Ben Soffer]

Oh, oh, oh, true.

[Josh Peck]

You have a picture of my dad ready to go?

[Paige O'Brien]

Yep, I do.

[Claudia Autry]

That's a good wife.

[Josh Peck]

Oh, my gosh.

[Ben Soffer]

I've seen. Doesn't.

[Josh Peck]

Which one are you sending? Make sure he looks good.

[Ben Soffer]

Doesn't he look like a Syrian Josh? Isn't that. I think.

[Josh Peck]

I'm sure Josh.

[Ben Soffer]

I think that's my father.

[Josh Peck]

Is Borat.

[Paige O'Brien]

Okay. I just. I just texted them to you.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, she's literally you. Like. Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

No.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, I don't see it. I. Yep.

[Paige O'Brien]

The eyes, the mouth.

[Claudia Autry]

Yep. A thousand percent. Looks just like you.

[Josh Peck]

Wow.

[Paige O'Brien]

Your sister. Beans. She looks kind of like beans for me.

[Ben Soffer]

I have 100% never seen him. And you.

[Claudia Autry]

Those pictures are also really old. Makes you look like you're 100. Like, that's a picture of your dad. Like, it's looks like it's been restored and, like, colorized.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah, he was 62 when he had Josh.

[Claudia Autry]

Oh, my God.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

So he is pushing 100 sperm.

[Josh Peck]

Yeah. When he passed away, people were like, oh, my God, like, you know, something traumatic. I said, no natural causes.

[Claudia Autry]

So, Josh, do you feel like that loneliness you felt as a child sort of informs how many kids you want to have?

[Josh Peck]

Oh, absolutely. I mean, I think we're done. I. I think we've. Are we done? We're done, right?

[Paige O'Brien]

I mean, as. As of right now, we will be done.

[Josh Peck]

If Dear media gives us a, you know, an armchair expert type re up deal and. Or I get, you know, some terrible sitcom on cbs shout out, then. Then I'd have all the kids. But yeah, I just think, like, if you can throw money at kids, it's great. Obviously people do it. But when you have multiples four or five, you just need room.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah. Let me ask you a question. Like, how expensive is a kid?

[Josh Peck]

I mean, it's all. It's all relative. And it's not expensive in the beginning, but just like, simple things that I start computing in our head. And granted, I will give the caveat or say how lucky we are to be able to afford such things. Right. But now, like, Max is in public school, but even his public school suggests a $3,000 donation a year for the school so that they can, like, afford electives and do nice programming and whatnot. And he does after school, which is 600 bucks a month, and he'll do camp. So, like, max is about 10,000 bucks a year for his school, and now Shy will start school, so that'll be preschool, $20,000 a year. And then we have someone who helps with the baby, which is, you know, so like, all in all, three kids, that's looking at, you know, in the 50s, you know, per year, which is a luxury, but, you know, if you can't afford it, it's. It's incredibly. Yeah.

[Paige O'Brien]

And I think as they get older, too, like, Max is now going to start getting more into sports. He's, like, really into sports, whereas Shy is not into any of that. He's young. But that stuff is expensive. Just like little things where you're like, oh, I didn't even think about that. And then, do you think you're going.

[Claudia Autry]

To send your kids to sleepaway camp? Is that a thing people in L. A do?

[Paige O'Brien]

People don't do that here.

[Ben Soffer]

You must.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, I have. I have to agree with Ben on this.

[Ben Soffer]

Like, you must. You absolutely have Maxwell Drive.

[Josh Peck]

It's not the culture. It's not the culture here as much. It's. It's.

[Claudia Autry]

I know. That's so unfortunate to send them east. Send like the cool kid we all knew, someone who flew in from L A. Like not everyone was from New York, New Jersey, Florida, but there was like one or two kids who came from the West Coast. They were extremely cool. And then you have like an L. A friend for life. That could be Max.

[Paige O'Brien]

Maybe maybe our kids could can go to camp together. Your kid can take our kids camp.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

Yes. For sure. Fat camp. For sure.

[Paige O'Brien]

For sure. Fat camp.

[Josh Peck]

Ruben s camp, right?

[Claudia Autry]

I went to a weight loss facility.

[Josh Peck]

Was it Camp Shane?

[Claudia Autry]

It was not Camp Shane. It was the sort of rival to Camp Shane. Camp Pocono trails. And we went when. I forget how old I was, but my older sister Olivia really struggled with her weight from like a young age. And one of the things that my parents tried to do to help, you know, they were trying everything and they, they found this camp. And of course like we were just the type of family, whereas like if one of us was going, we're all going. So we had been at like this girls, all girls sleepway camp for many summers. We were devastated. We got pulled out. We were like, we have to go to the Livia, the fat farm. And when I tell you we loved it. We never went back to our old camp. Like after the first summer my mom was like, you guys can go back. And we were like, no, we loved it. It was so much fun. We really didn't know. It wasn't like, it really wasn't heavyweights. You didn't know. It actually was heavyweights. I'm sorry. The beginning, like this really like family friendly environment with these characters. Like there were everyone from, was from New Jersey. It was, it was actually an amazing place. I went until I was like 18. I was like not on the program at all because I didn't start suffering from, you know, obesity till later in life. But I just loved it and I made so many friends and it was seriously, it was like when I tell people this, they can't believe it. It was such a regular camp.

[Paige O'Brien]

Was there a blob? Was that.

[Claudia Autry]

There was not a blob. No. And they were very conscious at this facility of, you know, you know, they did like a lot. You did like a weekly class about just like self image and a blob was not good for self image, you know.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah, yeah.

[Josh Peck]

It's now at, at a Ruben esque Camp. Is there a way in when you get there?

[Claudia Autry]

When you get there? Yes, of course. And then every Sunday. Oh, yeah.

[Josh Peck]

The Day of Atonement.

[Claudia Autry]

Yep. And if you're on the program, like, you have to weigh in. If you're not on the program, it's totally optional.

[Paige O'Brien]

Going back, Claudia, when you were saying. Because now I'm thinking about year one of four. I'm also one of four. Do you know how many kids, especially now being going through pregnancy? Like, did you always say, like, I want to have five kids? And now you're like, I'm only doing this twice?

[Claudia Autry]

I. I have always said that I wanted to have five kids because I loved growing up with so many sisters. And so it's like, what's one more? You know, Like, I think if I had one more sister, I would be so happy. Like, so I.5 for me is a dream. I'm at the end of my rope here, Paige. Like, I don't know how much longer I can do this.

[Paige O'Brien]

Serious.

[Claudia Autry]

And I also started. We started trying and just even thinking about kids, like, later than I thought. Like, when I was growing up, I was like, I'm going to have my first. I want to be a really young mom. I want to be, you know, 25 when I have my first baby. And I remember we were at Brian Kelly's apartment. I, like, just sort of met him, and we were, like, drinking, and we were, like, having so much fun. He's like, do you want to have kids? And I was like, for sure. When I'm 25. And he was like, how old are you? I was like, oh, how old am I? Oh, I'm 20, 25. And I was like, oh, okay. So, like, maybe when I'm 26. And it was slowly, like, 26, 27, 28. And now, you know, time isn't on my side either. So I would love, in the next pregnancy to have quadruplets, and then I.

[Paige O'Brien]

Would be set and be done.

[Ben Soffer]

Yeah, yeah, quadruplets.

[Claudia Autry]

Can you imagine me?

[Ben Soffer]

No, I can't.

[Claudia Autry]

Me.

[Paige O'Brien]

I have so many friends having twins right now, and it sounds awful.

[Claudia Autry]

Hellish. I know. I know. I felt so conflicted because I was, like, kind of hoping for twins just because I definitely feel like I started a little bit late. Now I'd be caught up with all my friends. Like, I would have two kids, but it's such a hard. It's so hard on your body. It's so complicated, the pregnancy. I feel like I'm not built for that.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

Cultural. Culturally, you feel like you're behind. You're definitely not, like, page. You're. You're friends. When did they start having kids?

[Paige O'Brien]

No, I think I was, what, 27 when I had Max? 28. 27 or 28. And even then, I was, like, the first of all of my friends, siblings, cousins, everyone to have a baby. So I feel like he was, like, everyone's baby. My friends were like, this is so cool and exciting. And since then, I've had a lot of my friends have had kids, but I also feel like I'm like, three is a lot of kids. They're all on their first, and.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, that's how I feel. Like. So my older sister Olivia, she was the first to have a baby, and, like, the way we all died for this kid, like, gifts. And Schmidt said, oh, what can I do? I'll fly here, I'll fly there. And I just. I haven't said this publicly, and I feel like now's a good time. I want to let everyone know, like, I expect the same sort of energy for our firstborn.

[Josh Peck]

You won't get any of it.

[Claudia Autry]

As we gave to others, specifically, like, the first in our family, it was a total reset. Like, we all. Oh, my God, the gifts I gave this kid, like you would never believe. I am expecting that in return.

[Ben Soffer]

You're also the world's greatest aunt.

[Claudia Autry]

Agreed.

[Ben Soffer]

World's greatest aunt.

[Claudia Autry]

It's true.

[Ben Soffer]

It will be the first for my parents. So, yes, we'll get that.

[Claudia Autry]

That's true. Actually, you are the first grandson on your side.

[Ben Soffer]

Yes. At least we'll get that. But, yeah, Jackie and Olivia better pony.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, no, they better show up.

[Ben Soffer]

Yeah. Like, we put together a registry. Like, you could just. Venmo.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Paige O'Brien]

Also, your sister's kids are older, too, so that'll be fun for you when you guys all get together. Like, you have babysitters, you have people who can hold a baby, and totally, they're gonna be so happy.

[Claudia Autry]

You should, like, space your kids apart so that, like, your older kid can take care of your younger kids.

[Josh Peck]

But I feel bad because Paige's sister Blake had the beautiful Gus about six months ago, and I just. And he's the greatest, and he gets plenty of attention and love, but I. Maybe I feel guilty just having two of my own. I'm like, I don't get enough time with Gus just because I'm. I'm running after my little ones. And I know if we only had Gus, oh, my God, I'd be over there.

[Ben Soffer]

That is such a good name.

[Josh Peck]

It is Gus.

[Ben Soffer]

I love It.

[Claudia Autry]

I don't know what he looks like, but I could. I feel like I do.

[Ben Soffer]

He's meaty, right?

[Josh Peck]

He looks a thin, thin little beauty.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah, he looks like my kids, kind of. He looks like maxted as a baby.

[Ben Soffer]

Is Gus. Is Gus short for something like Guzman.

[Claudia Autry]

Or are we just Gusman?

[Paige O'Brien]

He's just Gus, but we have friends that have like, August. Or we now call him Gustavo. Like we just call him whatever now. But is not short for anything.

[Claudia Autry]

Not Maxwell. And shy is Shy.

[Paige O'Brien]

Shy. Shy.

[Claudia Autry]

I like that. I. I feel like it's so. It's nice. Everybody thinks they need to have, like a big name, but then you never call them by their name. And it's like, weird.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

Gus.

[Paige O'Brien]

We're really thinking.

[Ben Soffer]

What do you think of Gus Offer?

[Claudia Autry]

I don't like that the last letter of the first name is the same letter as the.

[Ben Soffer]

Okay.

[Claudia Autry]

You know, okay.

[Ben Soffer]

Gustav.

[Claudia Autry]

Gustav.

[Ben Soffer]

Gustav.

[Josh Peck]

That's I.

[Ben Soffer]

That's pretty good, right?

[Josh Peck]

Could you imagine him at Camp Shady Pines or wherever she went? Gus Offer weighing in at 155.

[Claudia Autry]

Congratulations.

[Ben Soffer]

153. One full blown Rizzler.

[Claudia Autry]

Congratulations, Gustoffer.

[Josh Peck]

You are now the fastest boy camp.

[Paige O'Brien]

See, how does that work with, like, naming? I know the superstitions with, like, buying stuff. Do you guys have a name? Will you have a name picked out? Do you have names that you guys talk about that you like?

[Claudia Autry]

It's so funny. Like, the pick.

[Ben Soffer]

The.

[Claudia Autry]

The not buying stuff is like, what my family does. So I do it, like, out of respect. But I don't feel particularly superstitious. Like, if I have a. A crib. Like, that doesn't give me the willies. Yeah, what does give me the willies is coming up with names. People who are like, walking around with it like, oh, my baby Jane, Emily. Like, it's so. That to me is so willy nilly. Like, that makes me nervous. But it's not against our beliefs. We have a couple of names that we've thrown around. I think we're, like, leaning more towards one. But I also don't want to go in with a name because if I go in with a name, I'm gonna hate it and be like, that's not the name. So we have, like, if we. If we choose from any of the names that we agree on, I'll be happy. I really will.

[Ben Soffer]

Only thing that we're super aligned on is that we're naming for something.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, of course. It's our first. We gotta. With.

[Ben Soffer]

With purpose. We gotta be the name will have.

[Claudia Autry]

Purpose of Course it'll be strong.

[Ben Soffer]

So unfortunately, we can't do Guzman.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah.

[Josh Peck]

Do you guys.

[Ben Soffer]

That's why I was thinking about a Guzman. Yeah, I didn't think about it. Okay.

[Josh Peck]

Do you guys want to hear some fun pregnancy facts that you may or may not know?

[Claudia Autry]

I could guarantee you we know them, but sure.

[Josh Peck]

Did you know that babies can cry in the womb while they can't make any sound? Babies can practice crying in the womb as early as the second trimester.

[Claudia Autry]

I did know that because I made sure to remark. I'm like, isn't it crazy how, like, the baby doesn't cry and then he gives, like, gets born, and then he's suddenly crying? And then someone was like, no, actually, they cry in the womb, which is so sad.

[Paige O'Brien]

So sad.

[Ben Soffer]

That is so sad. It's like that Dear Evan Hansen song.

[Claudia Autry]

There's no one around to, like.

[Ben Soffer]

There's nobody around.

[Claudia Autry]

Did he fall in a forest? And there's nobody. Do you ever really crash or even make a sound? No. It's devastating.

[Ben Soffer]

Devastating.

[Josh Peck]

Did you know that the uterus can expand to the size of a watermelon? It can expand up to 500 times its normal size during pregnancy.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah. I would have been able to guess that maybe the baby's, like, inside of.

[Paige O'Brien]

A watermelon when they're born.

[Claudia Autry]

Right. They say 40 weeks. Like, on the fruit thing is the watermelon, so that.

[Paige O'Brien]

That one makes sense.

[Josh Peck]

Did you know that a baby can taste food in the womb? It's like the mother's diet.

[Claudia Autry]

I actually didn't think. I don't think. I knew that.

[Josh Peck]

They pass into the amniotic fluid, allowing babies to experience different tastes from before birth. Your kid's been eating diner for eight.

[Claudia Autry]

My kid is eating grilled cheese.

[Ben Soffer]

So much diner.

[Claudia Autry]

Yogurt and Diet Coke.

[Ben Soffer]

Oh, my God. So much diner.

[Claudia Autry]

We're going to have to really expand his palate once he's born, because I'm doing just the bare minimum to get by.

[Ben Soffer]

You're not so much.

[Paige O'Brien]

Anything helps. It's actually Max will say to me. He'll be like, mom, do you know that I've never tasted a Diet Coke, but the baby has. And I'm like, okay, ouch. First of all, it's like, I just. Let me have a sip. He's like, well, the baby gets to drink it. And I was like, oh, I guess you're right.

[Claudia Autry]

That's actually a good question. Let me ask you this, because I've asked my sisters it, too, because I remember when I found out that, like, Babies don't drink water. Like, how fudgeing crazy that is.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah.

[Claudia Autry]

And now, obviously, like, the kids drink water and they drink juice, but they haven't had soda. Like, when do you give them a soda?

[Paige O'Brien]

I don't know if you're Josh. Like, when they're two, apparently.

[Josh Peck]

But if you're saying I had a soda too, or that I gave our kids soda.

[Paige O'Brien]

You gave our kids you. Our kids are like, oh, I had a Sprite with Dad.

[Josh Peck]

They never have had a Sprite. That is untrue. What they have had, their mother has given them is a Fresca. Because apparently there's green light on Fresca in our home.

[Claudia Autry]

Fresca. So good.

[Paige O'Brien]

I don't consider that a soda.

[Claudia Autry]

Oh, by the way. Sorry, sorry. Paige, I want to back you up, but that is 1,000% a soda.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah. Okay, Wait, you introduced all of us to Fresca, so that's your.

[Ben Soffer]

It's an incredible.

[Claudia Autry]

So good.

[Ben Soffer]

It's an incredible beverage. Like, top tier Fresca is.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah, I agree.

[Claudia Autry]

Fresca's better than Sprite.

[Ben Soffer]

That said, it doesn't taste that delicious at zero calories. If it's not a true thick soda. It's a. It's a soda. What about Poppy? Like an Olipop?

[Claudia Autry]

These healthy sodas.

[Paige O'Brien]

Ollie Pop, isn't it?

[Claudia Autry]

Oli.

[Ben Soffer]

Olip.

[Paige O'Brien]

He does. He likes those.

[Ben Soffer]

Ooh, ooh, ooh. We should make a kosher one called Holey Pop.

[Claudia Autry]

It's Ollipop. Ben.

[Ben Soffer]

What do you think of that, Josh? Holey pop.

[Josh Peck]

Sure.

[Ben Soffer]

Okay.

[Josh Peck]

They can give it a mass. Holy water is in it.

[Paige O'Brien]

He does. He does.

[Josh Peck]

Washes down communion like a Holy pop.

[Paige O'Brien]

He does like those. What is. He likes the olive. What's the other one? Poppy. They're all. Yeah, right. He likes those.

[Claudia Autry]

I feel like our child will be born with just like a. A zest for D.C. an affinity for it. Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

Yeah. Should we start him straight on Pepsi? He'll never even know. Diet Coke. Diet Pepsi from. From the. From day one.

[Claudia Autry]

I like both. I actually prefer Diet Pepsi, but I probably drink more Diet Coke. It's just more accessible, so the baby might. Might just want that.

[Paige O'Brien]

Have you had a McDonald's at all during your pregnancy? Have you tried a McDonald's frozen Coke?

[Claudia Autry]

Well, I have had McDonald's during my pregnancy. I'm insulted at the question. And frozen Coke. No, definitely not. Like, I don't mess around when it comes to beverages. Like, at drive thru, it's always just like a large Diet Coke, A large diet. I don't veer.

[Paige O'Brien]

I. When I was really sick at the beginning of this pregnant, I'm sick pretty much the whole time. Kristen Doty, friend of the podcast Good Guys Podcast, wore wore the hat on the show.

[Claudia Autry]

Friend of the podcast for you guys.

[Ben Soffer]

She was fantastic.

[Paige O'Brien]

Loyal friend. So she, when she was pregnant, like, she's still pregnant. But when she was at the beginning of her pregnancy, she would on our group text with like all my sisters, she'd be like, you guys, frozen Coke from McDonald's is saving my life. And I was like, okay, whatever. And then I got the flu. Max, Shy and I, we all got the flu. We couldn't eat anything. I was so sick for days. Frozen Coke was the thing that brought me back to life. It was so delicious. I was like, kristen, thank you for this. I love you forever.

[Claudia Autry]

I mean, I'm not against it. I'll definitely try it the next time I found myself at a McDonald's, which is probably going to be like, tomorrow.

[Josh Peck]

A Coke Slurpee from 7 11.

[Paige O'Brien]

It's different.

[Ben Soffer]

Never.

[Josh Peck]

Oh, it's different.

[Paige O'Brien]

It tastes a little different. It's like, I don't know, the texture is different. I'm not sure, but it was great. I highly recommend.

[Josh Peck]

Have a couple stories I would love to get your guys opinion on. I'm sure, Claudia, you've covered this, but I just saw this in Page Six and.

[Claudia Autry]

So that's it with your fun facts.

[Josh Peck]

I have some strong feelings.

[Claudia Autry]

We're done with the fun facts.

[Josh Peck]

Would you want one more?

[Claudia Autry]

No, no, no. I was just. I want to make. I don't know if they were gonna come back. I had a really good time. A lot of fun.

[Josh Peck]

It's great. I can give you more. Like your shoe size can go up a half size when you're pregnant.

[Claudia Autry]

Just saying, you know, you can go.

[Josh Peck]

Eleven and a half. Okay, I gotta know what you guys think about. Katy Perry is hurt by Wendy's inappropriate jive about her trip to space with Lauren Sanchez. The fast food giant snarked. Can we send her back? In response to a post on X that read, katy Perry has returned from space, someone in Katy Perry's close, close circle said, we understand the Internet loves a joke, but there's a clear difference between humor and targeted hostility. And this wasn't harmless banter. I have some strong feelings about it. I'd like to hear you.

[Claudia Autry]

Me too. I mean, nobody has clowned on these dumb bitches going to space more than me. And I want to say in this moment, I stand with Katy Perry. That was kind of an inappropriate tweet on behalf of Wendy's like, account. It was actually like, mean spirited. Like, we're all having fun, right? Like, we're not saying anything crazy. We're just like, this is stupid. Hahaha, you look silly. And then Wendy's suggesting that we like, drop her off in space and like, kill her. It was, it was definitely a strong reaction. And you expect that from like a troll. Not from a verified brand account.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah.

[Josh Peck]

As someone who's been to Wendy's headquarters in Columbus, Ohio and taught their social media team how to do social, but we haven't worked together in quite some time. You're Wendy's. Like, you're not some righteous brand. Like, let's be real here. Like, yes, your fun redheaded Twitter logo has crushed their snarky clapbacks. But in this spirit, I felt like it was meant. It's weird.

[Claudia Autry]

Too far.

[Josh Peck]

Totally agree, guys.

[Paige O'Brien]

Agreed.

[Ben Soffer]

Agreed.

[Paige O'Brien]

It was like, it was a little funny when you saw it. You're like, whoa, Wendy's.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah. No, you thought for sure it was like a parody account. Like an account that was expelled. W E N N D Y S For sure.

[Ben Soffer]

All right, I can't sit here. I. I listened to the two of you. I thought it was funny. Oh, I was just being. I was Agreeing So you're like, you.

[Claudia Autry]

Have a mean spirited sense of humor.

[Ben Soffer]

I guess I do. I guess I do. I don't know. It's just like, okay, you went to. You went to space. It's just like, big. Like, everybody's loaded. Everybody's having fun in space. You can't. Wendy's can't have fun.

[Claudia Autry]

No, I'm saying we all had fun. I don't feel like we all took it too far. Wendy's is like, oh, you really took it too far.

[Ben Soffer]

No, and then like this, like, person, on behalf of Katy Perry, like, she's making it a bigger deal. It wasn't a big deal.

[Claudia Autry]

Well, you say that the next time like a major brand says something really fucking mean about you. Okay.

[Ben Soffer]

By the way, I don't think that, like, that would happen. Right.

[Claudia Autry]

Well, you didn't think it would happen to Katy Perry, yet here we are.

[Ben Soffer]

Okay, sure.

[Paige O'Brien]

What did I get? Social?

[Claudia Autry]

You talk pretty big. You talk pretty big. And then what if it's about you?

[Ben Soffer]

What if it's. What if Wendy's told me to stay in space?

[Claudia Autry]

Made a national joke about you, basically alluding that you should die?

[Ben Soffer]

I, I would, I would think that it was strange and I would probably never do Wendy's again.

[Claudia Autry]

And look, Katie's handling it in her own way. And you handle it in your own way as well.

[Ben Soffer]

Okay?

[Claudia Autry]

We just had Wendy's on Sunday.

[Ben Soffer]

Amazing Diet Coke.

[Claudia Autry]

Oh, crisp and bubbly.

[Ben Soffer]

Oh, what a Diet Coke?

[Josh Peck]

No, the. The baconators on one of my top three Naders. I mean, Ralph Nader Baconator, of course, but no, it's a delicious thing. And their $1 menu is unbelievable spicy.

[Claudia Autry]

Their nuggets are really good. I did a, recently, like a, A Tour de France of different nuggets. And I had very low expectations for Wendy's because I actually don't go to Wendy's a lot for nuggets. Like, I'm pretty loyal to McDonald's. They were solicioso, really.

[Josh Peck]

My grandmother famously, May Schwartzman, her number one fast food order. You ready for this? Was the baked potato and the chili from Wendy's. I mean, it's not fine.

[Claudia Autry]

The baked potato and chili era of Wendy's, it was like the early 2000s was a cultural reset. I don't know if they still even sell either of those items. Do they?

[Josh Peck]

I don't know.

[Ben Soffer]

I need.

[Claudia Autry]

But I feel like that's what really set them apart. Now they're just like, in my mind, like a Burger King McDonald's wannabe. Whereas, like, before they were kind of like a family, like, destination.

[Ben Soffer]

And they still do the square burger. That's their thing. The square.

[Claudia Autry]

Oh, do they square. So natural.

[Ben Soffer]

You know, it's so funny. It's so weird that it's so unnatural. And there's nothing more or less natural about the shape of processed meat.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

Why does it feel so unnaturally to square burger?

[Claudia Autry]

You guys also have in and out. You have a lot more like regional chains of Carl's Jr. We here in New York, like, we have the big ones, you know, McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, White Castle.

[Josh Peck]

We don't have that.

[Claudia Autry]

I don't think we do either. We do.

[Ben Soffer]

Consider yourself lucky. Nobody.

[Claudia Autry]

No, I mean, like, we have it, but we don't have.

[Ben Soffer]

We have like those three white castles. There's that one up in Harlem that has the beautiful sign. Clams are back. Nobody's getting your clams. Okay. Nobody wants your clams. White Castle.

[Claudia Autry]

White Castle is a really crazy chain.

[Ben Soffer]

Insane. Yeah.

[Claudia Autry]

I've never been.

[Josh Peck]

You've never had a belly bomb?

[Claudia Autry]

No. And I feel like I wouldn't like it. I don't really eat, even when I go to fast food. Like, I don't eat burgers, so I know that, like, burgers are their thing, but they're so small. Like, how does that help me?

[Josh Peck]

It's basically all it is, really is. It's like the thinnest burger that has ever existed on like a whole King's Hawaiian Roll, right?

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, like steamed. I feel like the boxes they serve them in are really cute and inspired, but other than that, I don't think I would like it.

[Ben Soffer]

That sounds pretty delicious. Thin burger on a Hawaiian bun.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, it does.

[Josh Peck]

It's fun time. Well, we have. There's another story in the New York Post, which is there's a bride who's under fire for picking ugly bridesmaids.

[Claudia Autry]

Funny.

[Josh Peck]

In quotes, you don't want people to outshine you 1000%. A bride to be is catching major flack online after being accused of choosing awkward and non photogenic bridesmaid dresses just so she could look hotter in her wedding photos. Every single one of them is someone she's either not that close to or has made fun of for her bridesmaids. And people have called them awkward, not photogenic. And some have even been cut out of the actual photos.

[Claudia Autry]

Guys, dresses or the people or the girls?

[Josh Peck]

I think it's both.

[Ben Soffer]

I think it sounded like the girls.

[Claudia Autry]

Well, the thing is, is that did she admit this out loud or people are just like saying, oh, you chose random ugly girls because you don't want it. Like, if she admitted this big mistake doing it, like, and subconsciously not tell anyone, she's totally allowed to do it. And I think it's a great move to say it out loud. That's where she lost me.

[Paige O'Brien]

But if she didn't say it out loud and people are accusing her of that, that's also really messed up. Imagine being one of those bridesmaids. Let me look at my friends pictures. And everyone in the comments is like.

[Claudia Autry]

You'Re reading this in the New York Post. Like, unfotogenic, ugly girls. Excuse me?

[Paige O'Brien]

Like girl hires trolls to be her bridesmaids. I would end. End. End it all.

[Claudia Autry]

No. A thousand percent. I need to know a little bit more on how she went about doing this. But listen, brides do crazy things.

[Paige O'Brien]

That's true.

[Claudia Autry]

What's the craziest thing you did at your wedding?

[Paige O'Brien]

The craziest thing. I wasn't. I don't. I don't.

[Josh Peck]

We didn't have any pomp and circumstance. Like, we didn't have a cake cutting. We didn't have a first dance. We didn't.

[Claudia Autry]

Oh, yeah.

[Paige O'Brien]

We didn't really do any of that. I kind of don't like when things are chopped.

[Claudia Autry]

I like, really scheduled.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah. Interrupted. I just was like, once everyone's eating, you can have like two speeches. Let everyone talk while everyone's eating, and then just the rest of the night and do your thing. I don't want you to have to look at me.

[Claudia Autry]

Who spoke?

[Paige O'Brien]

Josh's mom gave a speech. My dad gave a speech. And then your best man and my sister. Right. I think it was this. We did four.

[Claudia Autry]

Nice.

[Ben Soffer]

Who was your best man?

[Josh Peck]

My big brother, Dan.

[Ben Soffer]

Dan.

[Claudia Autry]

Okay, now let's say you guys were getting married today.

[Josh Peck]

Oh, Ben. Josh Benzema, groomsman. Ben's a groomsman.

[Claudia Autry]

He's a groomsman. But he's not the best man.

[Ben Soffer]

No, I respect. I respect it. I respect what I respect. I'll take. But I'll take a groomsman. Yeah, absolutely.

[Josh Peck]

Am I a groomsman at your. At your wedding?

[Ben Soffer]

Ben, of course you are.

[Josh Peck]

Let's redo it. Let's renew our vows.

[Ben Soffer]

I'm down. Josh, we burned all our.

[Claudia Autry]

You're getting remarried again. Not remarry. Sorry. You guys are getting married. Where are you having your bachelor party? And where did you ever. Bachelor party?

[Josh Peck]

I had. So Paige had the blowout. Bachelorette.

[Paige O'Brien]

It wasn't. It wasn't a blowout by any means. It was like two nights. I don't Even think. We went out the second night, it was kind of a disaster with, like, the hotels and stuff. So it wasn't a. It was not a blowout and no stripper. No, no. I was in the hotel half the time talking to the front desk, trying to get rooms because they only booked. They. There was like all these girls in one room, and they were like, your rooms aren't ready. And I was like, it's 1:00am I. I don't know why. There's, like, nowhere for anyone to sleep. So I had to go back. So it wasn't ideal. But Josh. Josh was. Tell them about yours.

[Josh Peck]

I. I've told this before, but I wasn't gonna have a bachelor party. And then the morning of the. The day before the wedding, that morning, my wonderful brother in law, Kelly, was like, we gotta do something. And I said, I don't know what we find. Let's go to a strip club next to the 405 freeway. Oh, God. We go. It's me, my groomsmen, my brother in law Kelly and John Stamos go to a place called Foreplay right by the 405 in Pico Boulevard. And we sit down, people are getting dances. They pull me up on the stage and take my shirt off. I'm like, I have gynecomastia. Please, ladies. John is throwing money at the stage. And then John goes, come on, let's go get a dance upstairs, like in the private room. And I said, okay. So it's me and John up there and we're separated by a curtain. And I will never forget that. All I hear from his side of the curtain is, no, no, I'm shy, I'm shy.

[Claudia Autry]

That's pretty good. I also went to Vegas Page, but very different. Yeah, well, we got married so young, so I was like, seriously, like, everyone in my bachelorette party was like 21, 22. We were black out, and the whole thing was sponsored by mgm. So, like, nobody had to pay for anything.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah.

[Claudia Autry]

I got us, like, it was actually so sick. And it was long. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Like, it was never ending. We were. We were so young. We had energy. It was day club night, club night, dinner. So nutty. Honestly, so much fun.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah. I mean, 22 in Vegas is. Is like prime.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah. And like Vegas for LA people. I feel like you go all the time. I feel like for a lot of the girls on my bachelorette party is probably the first time they went to Vegas.

[Ben Soffer]

It's just to be young and have a bachelor party or a bachelorette party, like What I would give for that. Now my friend is getting married. He's trying to convince me to go to Vegas. I'm like, get out of here. Like, what are you nuts? Like, that's. What, are you nuts? We're 33 years old. You want to go to Vegas. I know. Josh, we disagree on this. I want to just go. Go to Charleston. Let's get a boat for the day, Charles. Let's go to Miami. Get.

[Josh Peck]

I don't disagree. I agree.

[Ben Soffer]

Yeah. I don't. I don't want Vegas. I went to Costa Rica. I never told this story before. People almost died on my bachelor party. They're. Thank God, totally fine. It's not what you think. He was driving a golf cart. No, no, literally a golf cart wearing flip flops. And his flip flop went under the brake. And literally, as they're. As they're turning over a cliff. And two of my friends literally flew out of the golf cart, somehow landed on two trees and lived. But they literally could have died.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

Oh, my God.

[Claudia Autry]

Thanks for sharing.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yikes.

[Ben Soffer]

Yeah. Yeah. I've never told that story, but should.

[Josh Peck]

We get to a speak pipe?

[Claudia Autry]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Peck]

On that note, if you want to get advice, ask us a question. Go to speakpipe.com goodguys Keep it brief. Brevity is key. Keep it brief. Hey, here's one from. Oh, this is a good one. Here's one from Slater.

[Claudia Autry]

That's a fake name, guys.

[Ben Soffer]

Giant here.

[Paige O'Brien]

My husband and I are finally, a.

[Claudia Autry]

Year and a half later, planning our honeymoon.

[Paige O'Brien]

And it had me thinking, where did.

[Claudia Autry]

You each go on your honeymoon? Would you recommend it? What were the highlights? And is there anywhere in retrospect that.

[Paige O'Brien]

You wish you would have gone?

[Claudia Autry]

Please share.

[Paige O'Brien]

Would love some recommendations.

[Ben Soffer]

I'm shocked that a year and a half later, you're actually going. Kudos to you.

[Claudia Autry]

Because a fun fact about us.

[Ben Soffer]

Yeah. We never went on one. And it's honestly a big regret.

[Claudia Autry]

It is.

[Ben Soffer]

I would have loved to spent, like, two weeks on, like, some safari or, like, done something.

[Claudia Autry]

No, we got married right before the Jewish holidays, so we were like, we obviously have to be home for the holidays. We'll figure it out. And I think we were, like, very overwhelmed by the wedding planning process, so we just were happy to kick the can down the road. And we never went.

[Ben Soffer]

And I love you. You just said that you also wish that we had one, because we would always say to ourselves, oh, we travel all the time. Oh, we go on.

[Claudia Autry]

We take it a thousand trips, but it's just different. Agreed. Although what I have heard about honeymooning, and I'm sure you, too, can add a little bit more color. Is like, just be careful not to go, you know, too remote for too long with too little to do because it can turn dark quickly.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah. We actually went to Cabo, which is, like, close for us, and we went. We didn't have one planned. And funny enough, again, we're going to talk about John Stamos. John and his now wife, Caitlin, and our friends, the Bicker staffs were like, we're going to Cabo for a few days. Why don't you guys come? It'll be like a honeymoon. And it was actually kind of perfect because we went and we had friends, and so we go to the pool and we go. We had our own, like, area in our own room and stuff. But then we'd go meet up with them and we'd hang out, like, at their villa. And then they did like, a whole fireworks show on the beach for us, which was really nice. They booked us massages. They really booked.

[Claudia Autry]

Paid for.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah. But, yeah, they got us massages while we were there. It was very nice. And everyone was so nice in. Cabo's close, so it's, like, enough to go and feel like you have a vacation, but it's not too far away. And then we ended up going after that, flying from there to D.C. to watch the Beach Boys perform for the Fourth of July.

[Claudia Autry]

How interesting. Why the Beach Boys?

[Paige O'Brien]

John. John's the drummer for the Beach Boys.

[Claudia Autry]

Excuse me. John Stamos.

[Josh Peck]

For 30 years.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

What?

[Claudia Autry]

Wait, what? Are you guys joking? I can't.

[Paige O'Brien]

No, we're serious. And so they were performing at the Capitol 4th, so kind of like how.

[Claudia Autry]

John Mayer does, like, grateful that John.

[Ben Soffer]

Stamos is the drummer for the Beach Boys.

[Claudia Autry]

Not the original drummer.

[Ben Soffer]

No, of course.

[Paige O'Brien]

But he tours with them. Like, I don't think he does all of their performances with them, but he does half at least.

[Josh Peck]

Since the 80s. Like, he does a lot. He became famous on General Hospital.

[Claudia Autry]

Okay. Like, when you don't know this. When he was Uncle J.

[Josh Peck]

Everyone knows this.

[Claudia Autry]

No, they don't. I'm telling you.

[Ben Soffer]

No one knows this.

[Paige O'Brien]

No, he does. I was watching a show the other day, and they brought it up. They were like, olivia, Beach Boy Olivia.

[Ben Soffer]

Did you know this?

[Paige O'Brien]

I found this out about 6 months ago looking up a photo of John Stamos, and I discovered. I was like, oh, he's in the Beach Beach Boys? Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

I'm not gonna lie.

[Paige O'Brien]

He's like an Orange county kid that's where he grew up. And he really loved the Beach Boys. And I think that when he started doing Full House maybe, or before that.

[Josh Peck]

No, like General Hospital. Yeah.

[Paige O'Brien]

He, like, got in with them and was like, I love you guys. I love your music. And they were like, come perform with us.

[Claudia Autry]

That's really crazy. I didn't know that.

[Ben Soffer]

Who knew? And by the way, we're definitely like, everybody must know. If Olivia Gen Z. Olivia knows, then we're. We're the only people who don't know.

[Claudia Autry]

She just found out.

[Ben Soffer]

No, but she found out.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, through a loophole. Through a loophole.

[Ben Soffer]

But she knew it was a loophole.

[Paige O'Brien]

She knew.

[Ben Soffer]

I can't believe I've never known. Never known.

[Claudia Autry]

Okay, don't feel bad. There are a lot of things we don't know.

[Josh Peck]

Well, here's another one from Anonymous.

[Paige O'Brien]

Hey, so I've got a question. I'm going to get right to it. Newly pregnant and it's my first child. You guys just had a podcast talking about your wife's nipples and how great.

[Claudia Autry]

They are when milk comes in. My husband's happy. He keeps walking around.

[Paige O'Brien]

Oh, no, a big titty. You that's sober.

[Claudia Autry]

Sounds like I'm about to be a cow with just utters that are sticking out. Is that true? What do I have to expect now? I'm so sorry. To the girl who too anonymous. I'm gonna have to put her question on this back burner because I don't even know what she was asking. What did you say?

[Ben Soffer]

I think I said that you just have wonderful breasts.

[Claudia Autry]

What did I say not an hour ago? That you have been overshared wearing.

[Ben Soffer]

I don't think that I said I'm.

[Claudia Autry]

Gonna start screening and sitting in on these.

[Paige O'Brien]

I was just gonna say we have to fact check. We have to start. What did you say, Claudia?

[Ben Soffer]

I think.

[Claudia Autry]

What did you say?

[Ben Soffer]

That all that I said was that you have wonderful breasts.

[Josh Peck]

Don't ask Ben for a recap. His memory shot.

[Ben Soffer]

I don't think I'll give you the reason I said anything.

[Claudia Autry]

What do you say, Josh?

[Josh Peck]

Ben didn't say it. We both said it. And by the way, can I just tell you the response? And Olivia, please feel free to jump in or stay out. The response from pregnant Women on our YouTube. I'm flustered. On our YouTube channel has been thank you boys so much for making us feel so beautiful. We talked about how deeply uncomfortable you ladies feel when you're pregnant and how beautiful and hot we think you are.

[Claudia Autry]

That was literally bought comments that you made, like fake Accounts.

[Josh Peck]

It's not true.

[Paige O'Brien]

It's true.

[Claudia Autry]

I don't even know what to say.

[Josh Peck]

Like, Olivia's quoting it. Olivia's quoting it specifically.

[Paige O'Brien]

Was. And I believe it was Josh who said this. It's pretty cool what happens to their nipples, right? And then Ben says, super cool. And that was it.

[Claudia Autry]

Super cool.

[Paige O'Brien]

I like how we started this off with Claudia yelling at Ben for over sharing and this is how it's ending.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah. No, I'm glad we needed to have this episode just to sort of get to this moment.

[Ben Soffer]

What did I say? Super cool.

[Claudia Autry]

Like we, me and Paige aren't going through enough. Okay. Like, the weight of the fucking world on our shoulders. And you two are be like, aren't the nipples cool?

[Ben Soffer]

All I want to say is you could tell me that my nipples are cool once in a while.

[Claudia Autry]

You don't want to hear what I think about your nipples. Okay. And I certainly wouldn't say it on the podcast.

[Ben Soffer]

You would. You would think about what you say about me on your podcast.

[Claudia Autry]

Okay. Now here's the difference. I definitely share so much about you on the podcast. And it's not even all. Maybe I would say not even 10 remotely flattering. Like.

[Ben Soffer]

But I only say flattering.

[Claudia Autry]

It's not private stuff.

[Ben Soffer]

My nipples. I said. I said so cool.

[Claudia Autry]

So you should have said, Josh.

[Ben Soffer]

What should I said?

[Claudia Autry]

No, you should have.

[Ben Soffer]

You can't speak on the nipples.

[Claudia Autry]

Say it again. I'll tell you what Ben should have said. Let's role play. Ready?

[Josh Peck]

Yeah. And isn't it cool what happens to their nipples? So those who are only listening. Claudia is sort of nonchalantly shrugging.

[Claudia Autry]

It's abstinence, Ben. You could just abstain.

[Ben Soffer]

And. And that wouldn't be right to our deaf listeners. Okay. Okay. That wouldn't be right.

[Claudia Autry]

You got me there.

[Ben Soffer]

Good guys in braille.

[Josh Peck]

Okay.

[Ben Soffer]

What else do we got, by the way?

[Claudia Autry]

What was her question?

[Paige O'Brien]

Even I don't. She was saying, like, should I expect to be a cow with udders or something? I mean, yeah, like your baby's feeding. If you plan on breastfeeding, you're kind of a cow for a little while.

[Claudia Autry]

That's the vibe.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah, that is what it is. You're just feeding your baby sound.

[Ben Soffer]

That's great.

[Paige O'Brien]

That's what happens.

[Claudia Autry]

I feel like it's all about the lens through which you see it. Right. Like, you could be like, oh, I'm a cow. Or you could see I'm nourishing life with my own body. How amazing is that? I would change your attitude.

[Ben Soffer]

I Think that we should turn our entire home into a breast milk home.

[Claudia Autry]

You want to start breastfeeding?

[Josh Peck]

Yes.

[Ben Soffer]

No, I'll take it from the regular way. Or from a bottle. Josh, have you ever had Paige's breast milk?

[Josh Peck]

Yeah, I. I think so.

[Claudia Autry]

Had my sisters.

[Ben Soffer]

Oh, you have Olivia's.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah.

[Ben Soffer]

You and I over, and I overshare.

[Claudia Autry]

No, I share. I've shared that a million times. I stuck on her titty. I dried from a cup like a normal person. And this is what I mean when I said, like, when Olivia had her first kid, like, everybody was like, you know, gung ho, freaking out. And I was like, what? What does it taste like? And she was like, give it a shot.

[Ben Soffer]

What did it taste like?

[Claudia Autry]

Not much. A little, like, sweet and sour, kind of.

[Ben Soffer]

And what if you're lactose intolerant?

[Josh Peck]

I just think that it's amazing that Claudia draws the line at ranch, but. Yeah, allow a little boob milk.

[Claudia Autry]

Actually, a fun fact about me is while I'm extremely particular about what I eat, I'm really not, like, like, weird about, like, body stuff. Do you know what I mean? Like, if you needed an enema, I would give it to you, and I wouldn't be, like, weird about it, you know?

[Josh Peck]

Really? That wouldn't freak you out?

[Claudia Autry]

I mean, I would, like, talk about it behind your back being like, wow, Josh had a really hairy butthole. But, like, I did. I. Yeah, Like, I don't know. I don't think body stuff. I kind of, like, maybe should have been a doctor in another life. Like, I don't. I'm not precious about things like that.

[Josh Peck]

So there is a little bit of technical difficulties on the New York side. So we are going to get to Paige's, one of you nuts, because she has to go pick up our beautiful son. Love you. Thank you, Paige. So our woody and it's moment of the week are our gripes with people, places and things. Paige, take it away.

[Paige O'Brien]

I can't think of, to be honest with you, I can't think of one because this pregnancy, I feel like everything is a woody Nuts.

[Josh Peck]

What about yesterday with when I called a particular piece of clothing, something do you not remember?

[Paige O'Brien]

Oh, yeah. Okay. This is my whatty and nuts. Yesterday, Josh is, like, staring at me and he's like, hey, what do you think of my outfit? And I'm like, it's fine. I mean, I don't like your shoes, but it's fine. And then he took the shoes off and was like, what do you think of my outfit? And I was Like. Like it's okay. And then he was like, well, what do you think of my top? And I was like, did you just call your shirt a top? And he was like, yeah. And I was like, what are you, nuts? Like, you're grown up.

[Ben Soffer]

What are you, nuts?

[Paige O'Brien]

What do you think of my top?

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, what are you, like, a blouse?

[Paige O'Brien]

Gross.

[Ben Soffer]

You're.

[Claudia Autry]

The shirt, Josh.

[Paige O'Brien]

No, it was. It was really, truly jarring to hear.

[Claudia Autry]

Josh, you need shopping. You need to go shopping for some going out top.

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah. He was like, what do you think of my top? And it was like a T shirt from Abercrombie probably. And I was like, where'd you pick that up, Josh?

[Claudia Autry]

Your girlfriend?

[Paige O'Brien]

Yeah.

[Josh Peck]

My tops. My tops and bottoms. It's because I need top surgery.

[Paige O'Brien]

Bottoms, not the bottoms.

[Claudia Autry]

Top surgery.

[Ben Soffer]

That's funny.

[Josh Peck]

All right, Paige, go pick up Maxine.

[Claudia Autry]

Okay.

[Paige O'Brien]

I love you guys.

[Josh Peck]

Thank you.

[Ben Soffer]

Love you, Paige. Bye, Paige. Love you.

[Paige O'Brien]

Bye. See you soon.

[Claudia Autry]

You soon.

[Ben Soffer]

Yeah, and we'll shut him down. Josh, you want to go? You want me to go?

[Josh Peck]

Go for it.

[Ben Soffer]

All right. My, what are you, nuts? Moment of the week is we were just going into Central park and we.

[Claudia Autry]

Decided, you know, beautiful day.

[Ben Soffer]

It's a gorgeous day. We deserve a little ice cream. Josh. So we go up to the Mr. Softy stand.

[Claudia Autry]

Now, if you're not from New York, Mr. Softy are the ice brand of ice cream trucks that, like, drive around the park. They're so good. It's frozen yogurt. It's not like your. It's not your mom. Your grandma's ice cream truck. It's really good.

[Ben Soffer]

It's the OG Original Swirl. Delicious.

[Claudia Autry]

You could also get.

[Ben Soffer]

You could get an Italian ices. You could get that little spider man.

[Claudia Autry]

Real diverse menu.

[Ben Soffer]

It's fantastic. We go up. We think it's Mr. Softy. It's not Mr. Softy. It's a different brand.

[Claudia Autry]

Yeah, the side of the truck. It's an independent soft serve company.

[Ben Soffer]

And the guy, it's. He. He makes up his price. Josh. No prices on the wall. Nothing. We watched the woman in front of us say, can I have a snow cone? He said, sure, miss, that'll be $12. $12?

[Claudia Autry]

What?

[Ben Soffer]

What are you not.

[Claudia Autry]

That was bad. Like, that made. Then he just was making no sense, because then we both got two items. We got two items together, and our total was $15 total.

[Ben Soffer]

And Claudia, not to shame you.

[Claudia Autry]

Oh, don't even say you're gonna say. I got a double.

[Ben Soffer]

Claudia, you got a double. It's fantastic, though. It's these two.

[Claudia Autry]

It's a double cone.

[Ben Soffer]

It's a double cone.

[Josh Peck]

The double dip.

[Ben Soffer]

Beautiful peaks. It was gorgeous. I got a Mariano's Italian ices. Oh, this was fantastic. Fantastic. The wooden spoon gave me a splinter on my tongue.

[Claudia Autry]

I mean, we felt like we got a deal for 15 because the lady in front of us got taken to the cleaners. 12 bucks. Wasn't even a snow cone that he, like, shaved himself. It's like the popsicle brand snow cone.

[Ben Soffer]

Took it out of his pocket.

[Josh Peck]

That is crazy. Is that price gouging?

[Claudia Autry]

You were shook. I feel like he was just making stuff up.

[Ben Soffer]

He made it up. No, no, there's no pricing. Anyway, he has his airpods in the woman's like, snow cone. He's like, 12 bucks. She paid it.

[Claudia Autry]

She didn't even blink.

[Ben Soffer]

She paid it.

[Claudia Autry]

That wasn't her first snow cone because she. She had the proper change. Like, she knew.

[Ben Soffer]

What are you nuts?

[Claudia Autry]

It was nutty.

[Ben Soffer]

You have one, Claude?

[Claudia Autry]

Of course I do. And it's inspired by actually our doorman, whom I love, Vinnie. Every morning he says, how you doing, Claudia? And it just like, pains me not to be honest. How am I doing? I'm tired, I'm sick, I'm sore, I'm exhausted, my back hurts. And so I'm just kind of done with people asking me, like, how are you doing? Don't fudgeing. Ask if you don't want to know. Because what am I supposed to say? How are you doing? Good. What are you, nuts? I haven't been good. Like, dead ass. I have not been good probably since like the fourth month, if I'm being completely honest. And I feel like it's a question you ask. And it's always so thoughtful, right? Like you ask the pregnant person, how are you feeling? And especially if it comes from another woman, they feel like, you know, they can say it. Just don't ask. Seriously, because you don't want to know what's really going on in my life. You really don't.

[Ben Soffer]

It's like when somebody asks you, how is your flight?

[Claudia Autry]

No, I mean minimize my problems. Sure, about your good minimize. Minimize my never good, Jerry, keep minimizing myself stuff.

[Josh Peck]

I totally, totally agree, Claudia. What are you, nuts? My woody nuts is I went to Atlanta on Sunday for the day for my dear friend's daughter's wedding. Gorgeous, beautiful wedding. Beyond. It was so fabulous. But I do run into this problem sometimes when I'm in a gaggle of civilians, which is that there will be parents who are usually it's someone either in their 50s, maybe 60s, usually 50s. And they will say to me, you know, my kids love you. I'm not familiar with you, and we've talked about this. They feel the need to make me feel bad. Yeah, I could not care less about you, but these kids of mine are going gaga.

[Claudia Autry]

Yep, yep, yep.

[Josh Peck]

So I was getting hit by it left and right. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And I don't mind. I don't mind being the mascot at the wedding. I'm just there to enjoy. It was stunning, gorgeous wedding. Perfect, perfect, perfect. But at some point, your boy had had enough. So this woman says to me, you know, I. I don't know who you are, but my kids love you. And I go, it's fine. It's okay. She's like, are you still acting? And I go, Which I get a lot. Because, like, something like Drake and Josh is so part of. It's so big. It's so part of the, you know, the. The lexicon that, you know, I could be like, yeah, I did all this other stuff, but maybe they didn't see it. So I go, yeah, I was in Oppenheimer last year.

[Claudia Autry]

Oh, right. By the way, you were an Oppenheimer. People cannot ask you that question.

[Josh Peck]

And I, you know, I have these two shows coming out, blah, blah, blah. And she goes, oh, yeah. And then she looks at me and goes, it's a really hard business.

[Ben Soffer]

Oh.

[Josh Peck]

And I look at her and I go, not for me.

[Ben Soffer]

Well done.

[Claudia Autry]

That's a great answer. Yeah, that's. I get that a lot, Josh. Like, sometimes I get, like, husbands, which I think is really sweet. They're like, listen. I don't listen, but, like, I know my wife loves you. Can you take a picture? So sweet. I don't mind it at all. But when it's like, somebody who's like, literally should be my. My listener. She's like a millennial girly. She's like, I mean, I have no idea who you are, but, like, my roommates, obsessed with you. Like, we take a picture. No, actually, like, why. Why don't you know the toast? Why don't you listen? You are my target demo. So you're hurting my feelings by, like.

[Josh Peck]

Me know that you're not 100%.

[Ben Soffer]

I get the worst version of both of that, where they don't even acknowledge. They just come up to me. They're like, I love your wife. Thanks.

[Claudia Autry]

I'm like, thanks. I love that. Keep doing it, guys.

[Ben Soffer]

I love your wife. Thanks. Actually, what I say now is, me, too. That's what I say. I say me too.

[Josh Peck]

Perfect dancer.

[Ben Soffer]

Me.

[Claudia Autry]

That is a perfect dancer.

[Ben Soffer]

Me too. And you know what else? I love? I love you.

[Claudia Autry]

I love you.

[Ben Soffer]
