Main Discussion Points & Insights

1. Festive Chaos & Santa's "Roasts"

• The episode opens with playful mayhem as Nick, in a Santa suit, surprises the hosts and attempts a "St. Nick" character.
  • The comedic bit quickly devolves as Nick becomes out of breath:
  • "God damn it. I got to snap out of this character. Fuck. Can't breathe in this." (Nick, 02:40)

Santa Delivers Holiday "Presents"—i.e., Roasts

• Nick, as Santa, reads tongue-in-cheek "gifts" (roast jokes) for Josh and Ben:
  • "Great, Josh. Merry Christmas to you. I heard you’re back on anti depressants. None of us can tell." (Nick, 04:48)
  • "Josh, I really loved your 4 seconds on The Last of Us this year. Your work is like microdosing too much and you want to throw up." (Nick, 04:59)
  • "Ben, you’re getting coal in your stocking because you broke kosher 397 times this year." (Nick, 06:25)
  • "Ben, I love all your food content, but speaking on behalf of your cardiologist, maybe you should try some treadmill content." (Nick, 06:44)

Embracing Self-Deprecation

• The hosts dive into self-mockery and body positivity, joking about fitness fads and their own physiques:
  • "No, don't let me become a fitness influencer. Do you want to become fitness influencers?" (Ben, 07:19)
  • "We have a similar body type, so I think we can blow up." (Nick, 07:27)

2. Christmas Traditions & Armenian Roots

• Nick reflects honestly on a modest upbringing and shifting relationship to Christmas:
  • "Christmas to me was like... another day... Our trees were dry most times because it was like used trees when they threw out, we’d grab it off the street." (Nick, 16:05)
  • "Now I’m trying to take it through, and now… If you go to my house, there’s toys everywhere. I bought three RC Jets... It’s all adults in your house." (16:38)
• Discussion of Armenian Christmas foods, familial gatherings, and the blending of cultural traditions:
  • "Our main celebration is food... I’d call Ben up… we’re doing barbecue, we’re all hanging out, we got the homies coming over." (Nick, 20:29)
  • "Have you been? You got to come to my house during a [holiday]." (Nick, 21:39)

3. Jewish Holiday Traditions

• Ben and Josh describe classic Jewish Christmas activities:
  • "As Jews, we typically go to Atlantic City and we eat Chinese food. That’s what Jews do." (Ben, 33:12)
  • "You can go to Atlantic City and you see a bunch of Hasids bumming cigarettes, playing blackjack." (Ben, 33:15)

4. Vegetarianism, Eating, & Body Shaming (With Humor)

• Lighthearted ribbing about attempts at veganism and appetites:
  • "Get the fuck out of here. You’ll never be a vegan. Not with the way you eat. I’ve seen him throw down." (Nick, 26:33)
  • "There’s not a lot of breathing and there’s not a lot of eye contact because it just becomes about the food." (Josh, 27:00)

5. Manifesting Dreams, Delusional Optimism, and Filmmaking

• The podcast turns serious and inspiring as Nick shares his creative journey:
  • On getting his film made:
    • "If you plant the seed that something’s not going to happen... Sometimes you have to be a little delusional to really be great. ...It’s for everyone that’s a creative. ...Be as fucking delusional as possible, because sometimes delusion pays off." (Nick, 28:47–31:24)
  • On having vision:
    • "Whatever you have planned, you plant that seed, and someday it'll happen. ...With Josh, I knew. With James [Franco], I knew." (Nick, 43:51)

The Nick & Josh Origin Story

• Nick describes their first meeting—an elevator pitch in Josh’s building:
  • "I knew where Josh lived... I held the elevator door open... I told him, there’s this TV show I want you to do... He’s like, talk to my manager. I don’t do deals in elevators... Elevator door closes. I was like, game on. I’ll be best friends with him someday." (Nick, 40:05)
  • "Years later, we shot a pilot together. And that was literally the pilot that I pitched to him, like, a decade ago." (Nick, 41:52)

Big Names and Bold Claims

• Nick’s movie “Love Meets in the Sunshine” is finished, starring James Franco:
  • "We're going to do South by Southwest. I'll be on stage picking up my awards. I don't know." (Nick, 45:13)
  • "I'm going to do a movie with Brad Pitt soon." (Nick, 44:20)

6. Navigating Fame, Relationships & Fetishization

• Josh asks Nick about how certain women "fetishize" him as a comic or “type":
  • "What is that? I would just love to hear about that.” (Josh, 46:25)
  • "Sometimes really, really good looking guys just don't have the person-... I'm a little more bubblier. ...After 11pm, it's like, let's order Domino's." (Nick, 47:09)

7. Closing Bits—Classic Good Guys Banter

• They close with “What Are You Nuts?” (their gripes segment), more jokes about levels, and preview Nick’s movie:
  • "Watch the movie when it's out. It's incredible. ...It's called Love Meets in the Sunshine." (Nick, 49:27)
  • "Love meets in the sunshine gives me Brokeback Mountain. You and Franco. And that’s not a bad thing..." (Ben, 49:50)
  • "This episode’s five stars. Otherwise, what are you, nuts?" (Ben, 50:54)

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

I mean, we grew up kind of like broken shit, you know, like, it's a little. It's really cool when you kind of have like, you know, when you have money for Christmas. I don't know how to explain it, but, like, our trees were dry most times because it was like used trees when they threw out, we had. We'd grab it off the street like on the 23rd, 24th.

[A]

It's all adults in your house.

[C]

But it is. But I don't really know much about Christmas. The only thing I know is. Is gifts. I never really got any gifts growing up, but now I'm.

[A]

You know, Armenians are the original Christians.

[C]

We are. We are.

[A]

Isn't there an Armenian?

[C]

Don't peer pressure me, all right? I'm trying to be better. I'm trying to be a better person.

[A]

A little less loud.

[C]

I'm trying to.

[A]

I'm trying to be peeking the microphone.

[B]

By the way, Josh, you never introduced Nick. Introduce Nick to the people.

[C]

Introduce me for you. Peer pressure me into asking me Christmas questions.

[A]

Nick Antonian, brilliant comedian, influencer, Most importantly, actor, filmmaker, writer. Soon we're going to talk about. It has a big movie coming out next year.

[B]

This is really exciting with James Franco. We weren't friends when I saw it, so I couldn't wish you congratulations, but congratulations. It's fudgeing.

[C]

Thank you. You remember that Snapchat thumbnail we got? You and I tried to kiss each other. We didn't fully commit. Yeah.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

You know, it's the one thing that I know because I've told Ben. I told you this, and you. You looked at me really oddly. I think it hurt your soul. And I was like, I think I'll.

[B]

Have to be with me. He told me this, Nick, four times in the same day, by the way. Continue.

[A]

I said, I think before I die, I'll have to be with a man once. You know, to feel the love of a.

[C]

Can I be a fly on the wall? I want to watch. Is that weird?

[B]

No.

[C]

You. Does that make you gay for wanting to watch my best friend? I want to. I want to watch that. Yeah, dude. I'm gonna hop in for, like 20 seconds. I'm not fully gay.

[A]

Oh, my God. And I would only go to second or third base for the dude. I wouldn't go full home run. But not that I've thought about it.

[C]

But what's second or third base? Explain sucking.

[B]

I think is.

[C]

Is in there.

[A]

You know what? You make it. I would only.

[B]

I would only suck. I wouldn't go any further than that.

[A]

Let me make it sound really ugly, Ben, when you say it like that. Okay. What about a mouth hug? I had to kiss John Stamos when we did that show together. And what I will tell you is. And I love John. As we got closer. And who else are you Going to be gay for than John Stamos. We got closer and we kissed and I thought, ah, it's just kissing. And then I thought, it's not for me. And like, yeah, that was like the moment where I was like, okay, I do like women.

[C]

So wait, you went to second base or was that third?

[A]

That's first. Is it a kiss?

[C]

What's second base?

[B]

That's first. That's first hand movies. Okay, H.J.

[C]

H.J. Okay. Playing with dick. And second, that second base you said.

[A]

I think second base is like heavy petting touching the organs, but not.

[B]

Yeah. Second is hands. Third is anything with your mouth. And then fourth is the bingo bango. Home run.

[A]

All right, let's. Ok, so the Christmas. What's cool about Christmas at the Antonians. Christmas at the Antonians is that you guys will do an amazing spread of food, but it's not like the typical, you know, roast turkey stuffing. It's like Mediterranean.

[C]

That's why I don't have an answer for you when you ask me, like, Christmas, it just feels like another day.

[A]

Like, talk about the sp. Because I love coming over to your house the day after Thanksgiving or the day after Christmas.

[C]

Yes. Ex. Yes. There's a bunch of food on the table.

[B]

We.

[C]

We Armenians are. Brother. What the do you mean? What kind? Just there's. Because there's so many. So many kinds. I'm. I'm Armenian. So our. Our main celebration is food. Like some happens. Like Ben right now, like, for example, some great thing happens in his life. Doesn't have to even be that great. You can just get out of a parking ticket or something. I'd call Ben up, dude. I just. I lit the fire up. We're doing fucking barbecue. We're all hanging out. We got the homies coming over. We're going to spread as much food as possible on the table. We're all going to hang out and eat and have a good time. There's. I don't know, like tomato cucumber salad. There's kebabs. Kebabs. There's like, you know, chicken breast, usually with really good marination.

[A]

Rice, like pilaf.

[C]

Lamb chops. Yes, pilaf. Pilaf is like babies.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Rice. There is.

[A]

That. That is such an armo slash Slavic approach to like. It's right.

[B]

Spiel off.

[A]

But it's. They use the English word, but they just go pull off. It's like, like. You know what businessman is in Russian?

[B]

It's business, man.

[C]

Businessman. Businessman. But yeah, dude, I mean, it's. Have you been you got to come to my house during a very.

[B]

I would love to. As you're saying it, I'm literally thinking to myself, all that I. All that I love to cook is apparently Armenian food. That's my favorite stuff.

[C]

All of that.

[B]

Yeah. And by the way, and Jews are the same. We. All that we do is we celebrate with food and what you called cucumber tomato salad, we call Israeli salad. And we make a ton of meats. We love it. Chicken. Delicious.

[C]

Bring. Bring some of that delicious food to my house and then I'll have my grandma and my mom whip some crazy shit up and we'll. We'll call it a Christmas. When are you back in la?

[B]

I'm in February.

[C]

Until when.

[B]

[B]

No, we're gonna, we're gonna hang.

[C]

Josh is a vegan.

[A]

I'm toying with it.

[B]

His life is vegan though.

[C]

Get the out of here. You'll never be a vegan. Not with the way you eat. I've seen him throw down. Dude, he's not. You can't be vegan. Don't lie to yourself. And don't lie to the people around you.

[A]

That's cute that you talk about the way I eat. You've never lived, Ben, until you've seen Jonah Hungry at an El Polio Loco. Let me tell you, it's like they need to put down Max. Okay.

[C]

He's all right.

[A]

Dude, it's like. It's like a cow at the feed.

[C]

Get the out of here, dude.

[A]

Dude, this kid puts it away. And there's not a lot of breathing and there's not a lot of eye contact because it just becomes about the food.

[B]

What's better than that meal? When you're in the middle of the meal, you're so full, you're pushing further. You fucking hate yourself, but you love it. And you're digging and digging and digging that. I need that.

[A]

So, Nick, talk about. I'm dying to know. So, obviously, everyone knows you from your comedy career. Social media. David Dobrik. You know, you've been a staple in our homes now. I'll give the backstory, and then you take over. For the last four years, Nick's been talking about this movie that he wrote, and it's been in some versions of Green lit in quotes. But as all indie filmmaking, you secure a budget, you get an actor, some of the money drops out, the actor has to go do something else. They have to drop out. It's really hard for the stars to align, right?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

So at a certain point, I go, nick, I hope it happens, but it's a bitch. And of course, Nick would be like, I'll see you at the Oscars. I'm like, you will? And I was like, okay, I'll. I respect that level of belief in yourself. Finally, when you know the way.

[B]

Optimist.

[A]

Like, September. Optimist, September.

[C]

Okay. I've been. I've been talking to Josh about this movie for. And it's also okay to say that you didn't believe it was going to happen, because nobody really did. Nobody, like, really believed it was going to happen ever.

[A]

I don't believe anything's going to happen, though.

[C]

I know you're. You're super pessimistic, which is.

[A]

Okay. We're realistic.

[C]

But is it really realistic?

[A]

I think it's almost. I would call the odds of getting a movie financed close to impossible.

[C]

You see, that's. That's. That's where your mind's fucking with you. Okay, I agree. If. You know.

[B]

I agree.

[C]

If you plant the seed that something's not going to happen, you give me a lot of really, really good advice. I Swear to God, I look up to you like an older brother. Like, I would literally call you sometimes and ask you for advice because I really, really want to know what you have to say. I genuinely. You're one of my favorite people in the world. I'm. And I'm, you know, I, I say this to every person I'm around to ask you who one of your favorite people is in the world. It's 100% you. I genuinely look up to you as an older brother, but sometimes what you do that I don't want to see you do. Honestly, moving forward, I agree with being realistic, but you need to have some sort of delusion sometimes to get to a level that is really hard to get to, right? If I was a real. If I was realistic, I would have told myself 10 years ago, I'm not gonna. I go like, you know what? It's not gonna happen. Everyone's doing it. What are the odds of me making it? I think one thing that I'm not giving you advice, but I genuinely sometimes think you should have some sort of delusion to really be great sometimes. You like that? I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I. Because I hear you talk about it, you're like, I gotta be real about something. How about, how about, how about easier mind and be a little delusional sometimes? Go like, you know what? Fuck it. If it's not gonna happen, someday it will. Maybe it won't happen right now. It won't happen. It won't happen the next month. It's not gonna even happen in the next fucking five years. But someday it'll happen. I think you should have that delusion, bro, because I hear you sometimes talking to me about the movie that you want to. That you wrote. You want to direct, you want to do the TV show. You need to have that delusion inside of you. You need. Because the odds are impossible. The odds are against you. Look at guys like Elon Musk and all those other guys that are fucking.

[A]

Doing crazy shit like, once in a lifetime genius.

[C]

But, bro, but, but if, if, if, if they thought realistic, they would have. And that. This is for all the dreamers in the world. This is for everyone that's a creative. This is for everyone with wild dreams. Be as fucking delusional as possible. Because sometimes delusion pays off.

[A]

I agree, Nick.

[B]

You are really my fucking language.

[C]

You should be delusional.

[B]

You are speaking my language. I love this. I love this. I do think it's part of Josh's shtick. I don't think he's actually that down on himself.

[C]

No, he's not. He's not.

[B]

But. But sometimes you're saying, what you're saying is gold.

[C]

Yes, it's gold. It's gold. And it's true. Sometimes you have to. You have. You have to just let go of your brain and let it, bro. Because dreaming is free. It doesn't cost you anything. All it does is cost you time.

[B]

Did you know when you were bringing on Santa, did you know that when you were bringing on Santa that you were going to get this level? My God, this is better than Mel Robbins here.

[A]

This is.

[B]

She hasn't come out yet.

[C]

We don't know it's the truth, do I?

[B]

We don't bank.

[C]

Who do I? Do I believe someday I'm going to win an Oscar? 100%. 100%. Do I believe I'm going to be one of the biggest comedy actors in the world? Guarantee it might happen within the next decade. It'll take me, sure. It might take me till 2035 if I'm not dead, obviously, to become. To become. To become top 10 in comedy. But it'll happen. It will 100% happen. And nobody can fucking tell me otherwise. Nobody, no one can ever tell me otherwise.

[B]

Enjoy your.

[C]

Because they can't take that away from me, bro. They can't. They can take away everything from me. They can't take away my fucking dream.

[B]

Yeah, it's just what it is you're describing. Shoot for the stars, land on the moon. That's what I'm fucking talking about. Yeah, dude, we shoot for the stars. We're gonna be really happy on the moon if we shoot for the sky and then we fall on our ass. God, this is a great podcast. I'm so merry with cheer. Do you like, what else do we do on Christmas as Jews? We typically go to Atlantic City and we eat Chinese food. That's what Jews do.

[C]

That's what they love, Chinese food.

[B]

You can go to Atlantic City and you see a bunch of hussards bumming cigarettes, playing blackjack. That's what we do.

[C]

That sounds a great fucking time, dude.

[B]

Right?

[A]

Oh, speaking of hostage, this is. I'm going to do my. What are you nuts? Early, by the way, we do a segment at the end of the pod called what are you, nuts? It's our gripes with people, places and things. Like anything in life, big or small, that you're like, what are you, nuts? So start thinking about it now. You'll have, you know, 20 minutes to think about it. But my. What Are you nuts? Is. Speaking of hostage, I was on a flight back from New York after our wonderful record with the great Oz Perlman. So we're. I'm flying back on United and there is Hasidim family and there's this kid who's like 12 years old and much respect to all religions, all cultures, always. But, you know, as Ben can speak better to it, there is this idea of not letting outside too much outside culture in because it can be. What would the word. Word, Ben? Like incriminating. It can foul the mind. I think it's. It, it would just.

[B]

No, it would probably just tempt you to do something that you're not supposed to do. Like if you, if you watch movies where women are doing promiscuous things, you're going to want to do promiscuous things. That's the idea.

[A]

Okay. And by the way, and that's in almost every religion, that's for people who are very devout.

[B]

Yeah, for sure.

[A]

And so there's this kid, and he's like 12, 13 years old, and there's this beautiful monitor in front of him with 500 movies and a thousand TV shows. He watched the map for five and.

[B]

A half hours, bro.

[C]

That's the story of my life, bro. The amount of times I've dozed off looking at the map is insane.

[A]

I felt so bad for him. I was like, dude, let this kid watch Paw Patrol. I don't know, he's 12. I'm like, let him watch Stranger Things. Like, that sucks. But respect, respect.

[C]

Sometimes the map is the best thing to watch on a flight. I swear to God, dude, I don't.

[B]

Know why, when you're not watching, when you're not watching the map, all of a sudden they bring you on a weird ass route. So honestly, maybe the director, you know what it's like, all of a sudden you pop into the map, you're like, why the fuck did I go up, down, left, right? And then I lost 45 minutes, bro.

[C]

You know what? It's like, I feel like it's a, it's like a, it's a, it's a very like guy thing, you know, like sometimes like even like a fucking. The captain of like a cruise ship. You. I don't know, I feel like if I were on a cruise ship, I'd be like eyeing the captain to make sure he's steering right, you know what I mean? So I don't have to interfere and like steer for him. But like, I, I just feel like we're always trying. I don't know, it's like you're always trying to save situ. I, I don't know if that makes sense. Like, when something's like, something goes out, like, goes down outside. You walk with, like, outside with, like, your flip flops on. You're, like, watching the ruckus outside, seeing if there's anything you can, like, assess and like, hey, settle down, like, you know what I mean?

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

I don't know if that makes sense or what I'm saying.

[A]

It doesn't. Hey, Nick.

[B]

No, I, I, I'm fairly, I'm confused.

[C]

But really, I can't explain it correctly.

[A]

Okay, so tell us about. So you finally secure the money for your movie in September, right?

[C]

That terrible. I couldn't get that mic. Like, I know what I'm saying in my head. I don't know how to get it out. It made perfect sense in my head, too. That's the fucked up thing.

[A]

That'd be the name of your thing.

[C]

Makes perfect fucking sense. You're like, wow, that makes a lot of sense.

[B]

I'm talking about watching a map and you're like, yeah. You know when there's a catastrophe outside and you throw in your flip flop?

[A]

There is. Okay, wait, so you get the money for the movie? How do you get James Franco?

[C]

The, the, the producer reached out to, to, to his manager, and we sent in an offer and the script, and then he wanted to do the film. But the two characters in the movie, it's Adam and Jacob. We initially wanted him to play Adam in the complete beginning. I was supposed to play the role of Adam, but we were like, you know, what with my comedy timing and stuff, maybe I should play Jacob and he should play Adam. He came back, he's like, I think it's way funnier if I play, if I play Jacob.

[A]

And is Jacob more of the.

[C]

Jacob's like the goofball. Like, he's full of life and Adam's super depressed. Adam is super depressed. He hates his life. He's super pessimistic.

[A]

So tell me. I love this moment. Tell me about the call when they.

[C]

Say kind of bring it down. I feel like my face is blocked. Okay, go ahead.

[A]

Tell me about the call that comes in when they say Frank goes in.

[C]

David filmed it.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

But Dave, I was sorry. Thank you.

[A]

We're on a podcast.

[C]

Okay, okay, okay, okay. This is exactly what happened. I don't want to sound like a, like a super.

[A]

No, people love this.

[C]

I don't want to sound like a super weirdo, but I knew that day was going to come. I, I, I for years, bro. I'm telling you, dude, I'm telling you, bro. Like, I, I just had this feeling. I had it with you too. Swear to God. Ever since I was, I was young, I was like, dude, I think me and Josh can, like, do a lot of comedy together. Well, we'll, I.

[A]

Do you want to tell that story now?

[C]

Wait.

[B]

Because it links.

[C]

It links. It links. Can I say, can I say that? Let me. Let. What delusion is.

[A]

Get ready.

[C]

We're getting back to that. Let me show you what the fuck delusion is right here.

[C]

When I was like 18, 19, I knew where Josh lived. I. I knew his.

[A]

Never a good start.

[C]

I knew where he lived. He lived on Vineland at the Ava apartments, right? Was it the Ava apartment?

[A]

And tell people what a real motherfucker I am. I lived in that apartment till I was 29. That was, I mean, super humble.

[C]

Super humble. I saw him. I saw him park his black BMW at the apartment building. He walked into the elevator. And then I walked. I walked in front of him, and I held the elevator door open. This is literally the idea of the elevator pitch. But I knew it was gonna happen for years. I. Because I was a fan of him growing up, I. I thought, I can contribute my acting services to him. And I thought. I. I just. I was just like, I think we would be great together. But I already knew it years before he even knew who I was. And I told him, I'm like, dude, there's this TV show that I want you to do. I think you'd be great for the role. You and I together, we can make it hilarious. He's like, talk to my manager. I don't do deals in elevators where I live and where you live, elevator door closes. And I was like, all right. I was like, game on. I'll be best friends with him someday. And then. And then year.

[B]

I don't do deals in elevators. I don't do deals in elevators.

[C]

Like, five years passed, and thank God he didn't recognize who I was. Five years passed, and, you know, David invites me. He's like, hey, we're gonna film a bit with Josh. And I was like, great. I was like, okay, be as funny as you can. This is your moment to show him your acting services.

[A]

So.

[C]

So. So I. We did a bit and stuff together, and then I think you got. You got my number or something. And then I was like, all right, I almost have it in the bag. I still have the TV show in the back of my head, by the way. Keep in mind, I'm still thinking about the TV show. We started talking back and forth, and then, bro, years later, we shot a pilot together. And that was literally the pilot that I pitched to him, like, a decade ago. Didn't get picked up.

[A]

You know, don't talk about it like that. You shot. Okay, hold on. You shot a pilot presentation that I was. I played a character in because I love you, and I wanted to. You're making it sound like, you know, we didn't get picked up by Fox. Like, you shot a little proof of concept.

[C]

It was a proof of concept. Yes.

[A]

And I wanted to come help support.

[C]

Yes, yes, yes.

[A]

It was.

[C]

It was a proof of concept. We filmed it, but it was literally the same thing. I pitched him in the elevator. But it's funny how, like, things just come around in a circle because I. And then. But obviously, like, we did the pilot. We're still, you know, pitching it around. I. It'll. It'll get picked up someday. It's so good. It really is really, really fantastic.

[A]

Okay, so Franco.

[C]

Are we going to hit the gym tomorrow? I don't know. We're just saying it so we can order dominoes and some wings and hang out. A dude that's eating cucumbers and chicken all day long is not going to be as fun. Girls want to, you know, they, they, they want to have a little bit of fun. Whether it's The. The personality. The late night frozen pizza. You know, ice. Ice cream, for example. Right. Oh, hey, we're passing by Baskin Robbins. Let's. Let's pop in. Fit guy. Hell no. He's.
