Ben (2:15)

So that means you did nothing.

Josh (2:17)

We didn't do nothing. Here's the thing. Valentine's Day in general is for suckers. Because you should go out the night before or the night after. Otherwise you're going to contend with every restaurant you like. Being fully booked and bullshit overpriced prefix menus that are not.

Ben (2:32)

I have a story for you.

Josh (2:37)

Yeah, but you know, every woman is perfect. Thankfully my wife isn't. Even when we were dating, she wasn't too into it. So I did the smart move. This is very Joshy move. Friday night I took Max to the wonderful Costco and we went, if you live near a Costco, you have the keys to the kingdom. Okay.

Caller (2:59)

Yeah.

Josh (3:00)

They have beautiful floral arrangements all set up and they had these like $30 vases. Pre done. Beautiful. Very garish. A little bit, you know, but it was perfect. And I went with my son. We bought four, four floral arrangements, one for each of the women in our life. For my wife, her two sisters, and my mother in law. And we dropped them off at each place. Then we put the one for my wife in the center island for her to wake up to on Saturday. And, and we said from the Peck bros, we love you. And then we had like dinner at her parents house and then watched the NBA all star game. You.

Ben (3:39)

That's beautiful. Let me, let me first, just in case this ever. And of course this happens to just about everyone. If your wife ever says, don't get me anything, don't get me anything for Valentine's Day, that doesn't mean don't get her flowers. Totally don't get me anything means I don't want you to spend money on a present. And it used to be when my wife would say, don't get me anything, I would still get her something. But sometimes they really don't want anything. It's like, I'm good. You get me presents all the time. I feel showered, I. I'm very happy. But I don't need, I don't need another present right now. But that doesn't mean no flowers. Okay. Because let me tell you, okay, Saturday morning we go. I think I told you this. I started keeping my fake version of Shabbat. It just means I'm not using my phone Friday night to Saturday night. I've been loving it. I've been doing it for six weeks. We're not necessarily calling it keeping Shabbat because I still drive, but I'm doing, this is for me. This is for me. And I'm loving doing it. And I definitely feel more spiritual and connected to, to my family when I do it. But Saturday morning, Josh, we go out, we go to my sister in law Jackie's house and there's a beautiful bouquet there. Beautiful bouquet from the great Zach to Jackie. And of course that reminded Claudia. She's like, you can get me flowers. I'm like, he said he didn't want anything, but he. He didn't want anything. Idiot. Idiot. He said he didn't want anything. And so I said, all right, but let's. Let's try and. I'm gonna make us a. We were supposed to go to Rascal Flats. That didn't end up happening. She didn't want to go to Rascal Flats. So I'm like, all right, but let's just, like, find a good place to go to dinner. We'll figure it out. Just. Just give me your phone for a second. She's my shabbos. We call her my Shabboskoy. I don't use my phone, but I'll use her phone for emergency purposes. And so she gives me her phone, and I sit looking through, trying to find dinner reservation. Josh. I go into the other room, I call the florist, And I order seven dozen roses.

Josh (5:43)

Oh, my God. Would that hit you?

Ben (5:46)

507 and change. And I get it.

Josh (5:52)

$40 V. And I get.

Ben (5:54)

And I get it. No, Josh, Josh, Josh, you pre. You. You did it perfectly. I made the mistake. That's why I had to be out. 700 and change.

Josh (6:02)

Yeah, they charged you a nice vig on that one.

Ben (6:05)

Seven. One hour delivery. One hour delivery. It was. I was like, you could charge me 7,000.

Josh (6:11)

You got 10.

Ben (6:12)

This is a dream. Okay. I got crushed. Can you. Can you deliver them? They're like, of course. No problem. Delivers them. We get home and she sees them there, and she's like, you didn't forget? How'd you. How'd you do? I'm like, I didn't have my phone. I don't. I don't know. I don't know how they got here. She's like, did you do this yesterday? I'm like, I don't. I don't. It's such a. I ordered them the same day. I ordered them the same day on your phone. But I still love you. I still thought of you. I'm so sorry. Never, ever, ever. Don't get your wife flowers. Just because she says she doesn't want anything doesn't mean she doesn't want flowers.

Josh (6:51)

That is such a Jewish wife. Move to, then. Do the forensics on how it got there.

Ben (6:56)

It's here.

Josh (6:59)

Don't worry. How did it get here? When did you wanna.

Ben (7:03)

What?

Josh (7:05)

None of your business.

Ben (7:08)

It's here, okay? It's here. And then, Josh, we decided that we wanted to go to dinner. I'm gonna name the place unnamed because of our experience, but we go. I actually go an hour before. I know it's gonna be busy. I go up to the guy. I'm like, frankie, I'm gonna need a table. I know you're totally booked, but get me in. Here's 40. I push him 40.

Josh (7:29)

Not enough.

Ben (7:30)

He's like, no problem. I know, Josh, I know. But I push him 40.

Josh (7:36)

It's because you were hurting from the flowers. I just imagine you called the florist. You were like, can I get him in an hour? And he goes, of course you can. He screams out to the workers, we got another one.

Ben (7:50)

I push him 40. I'm like, just a table at the bar. No problem. I'm gonna come back. He's like, I got you. No problem. We go back. This place is a fucking zoo, okay? Fucking zoo. And I'm like, I'm here. He's like, oh, yeah. You just sit at the bar and I'll. I'll get to you. Maybe a half hour. No problem. We're okay. We go, we have a nice drink. I have a glass of wine. Claudia has a margarita, and we're having a great time. Josh. We go. I'm like, how long is it going to be? He says, another 15 minutes or so. So we're there 45 minutes. He's like, I have a table outside if you want. Go sit. Prefee menu, just so you know, but go sit.

Josh (8:32)

It's.

Ben (8:33)

I'm like, perfect. I'll take it. We've already been here 45 minutes. We contemplated leaving like 100 times because we don't like waiting for anything. And we go. We're sitting outside, we turn to our waitress, and we're like, okay. You know, we're really hungry. We're in a little bit of a rush at this point. You mind if we just order? She's like, the kitchen's backed up. I'm like, no problem. That's okay. Can you just take our order now, just so we know that it's in? He's like, okay, no problem. I'll be right back. We don't see her for another 30 minutes.

Josh (8:59)

Ouch.

Ben (9:00)

I put down 20 bucks. I leave. We got ice cream.

Josh (9:03)

Perfect.

Ben (9:04)

It was perfect. The ending was perfect. And we looked at each other. We're like, that was perfect. We got a drink at the bar. We were together. We had ice cream, were at home. We didn't eat the dinner. No problem. So, yeah, that was my Valentine's Day action packed. This episode of the Good Guys podcast is brought to you by our friends at Shopify. Folks, we all made resolutions in January, but February is usually when a lot of those resolutions tend to die. Whether it's due to time, resources, or motivation or a lack thereof. Excuse me. A lot of people tend to give up on those dreams once they realize that writing their resolutions down on paper was the easiest part. But setting up your own store doesn't have to be. Shopify helps make things simple with their host of tools that help you every step of the way. Don't let your dream store die with the rest of your 20, 26 goals. Let Shopify help you, and you'll spend the rest of your year thankful that you never gave up on this dream. Look, folks, here's the deal. Maybe you're a journaler. Maybe you're a writer. Maybe in January you put down all of your goals. Maybe you were a real pre planner and you put them down in December. Okay, then you're not the problem. The problem is the people who have these ideas, they have these big ideas were so add myself include. And we're like, okay, I want to start this business today, and then tomorrow you forget about it. So of course, yeah, if you came up with your New Year's resolution in January, you were going to go to shopify.com goodguys and sign up and make a web store and start selling your merch or drop your products or whatever it may be, and then you forgot about it in February. That makes sense. But we are not writing things down. We are doing things we are not writing, we are doing. I don't care what your journal said. I don't care what you wrote down. It doesn't matter because you didn't do it. Just do it. Okay, you want to start a store? Don't tell anybody about it. Don't tell your friends about it. Don't tell your mom about it. Don't raise any money. Don't tell anyone until you've gone on shopify.com goodguys and set up your site. Because until you have a website, until you can visualize, you don't even know if this is a good idea. It's probably not. Okay? You're gonna have like a hundred bad ideas before you have one good one. You should make a website for all of them. So if you're ready to take the next step in your life, whether it's the sweetest merch you've ever seen, your novel you spent years writing, or something in between, go to shopify.com goodguys and make it happen.

Josh (11:35)

You bring up a great point of something that I realize. And it's important you have it with your spouse. It's also important that you have it with your boy, like your friends. And that is an understanding of if this goes to pot, nbd, no big deal.

Ben (11:51)

Yes.

Josh (11:51)

Because the alternative is we eat a thousand calories from yogurt land and we get to go home. And it's really important. My, my buddy Dan is the deputy athletic director at ucla.

Ben (12:05)

Big job, big time, big time best dude.

Josh (12:09)

And you know, the NBA All Star weekend was in Los Angeles and UCLA is a Jordan school. And so he writes me and he and I were both dads with kids and we're like, you know, very involved dads. He's, he's the best. And he writes me and he goes, listen, Friday night there's a Jordan party as part of All Star weekend. I'm the biggest Jordan fan. I'd love to go. If you go with me, my wife will believe it's work. I said, same here. I wasn't gonna go. The, the wonderful Meyer actually was in the hospital the night before. So I'd been up all night. Thank God he's okay. We can talk about that too. But so I'd had like two hours of sleep and I was like, I'm kind of bushed. And I said, you know what? I said, if we can go and spend an hour max and come back, let's do it. He picks me up, we drive there, we literally for 40 minutes or for the 30 minute drive there, talk about our kids sicknesses and our sicknesses. I was like, we are lit, dad. And we get to the party and it is, you know, so many people are outside and it's just packed. And he's like at first having trouble getting through to his connect there to get in. And it's just like it's not looking good. And he looks at me and goes, you know what, I'm not even tripping if we don't get in. He goes, cause I know I'm with you and I know you won't mind. I said, dan, I am the perfect person to be with right now. I said, because if you look at me and say we couldn't get in, I go, first one to the car's a rotten egg. You know, like, great let's get out of here. No pressure, but we went and it was fun.

Ben (13:52)

It's definitely important that you're on the same page when going into something like that. For sure. That said, Josh, you must have missed out on one hell of a goodie bag.

Josh (14:01)

No goodie bag. This is why I went in the first place.

Ben (14:05)

Well, yeah, I know.

Josh (14:07)

It was. It was a real party. It was a real young person's cool. So it was like a dark club atmosphere. This was not, like a gifting moment. It. I don't. I didn't see anything good.

Ben (14:18)

Like, you wouldn't have walked out with, like, a limited edition pair of All Star weekend sneakers or. It wasn't. It wasn't one of those. It doesn't feel like.

Josh (14:25)

No, that was probably different parties, but I did get to meet the UCLA women's basketball team. And let me tell you, these women were. First of all, besides being incredibly lovely and sweet and just impressive, I mean, I was just. I guess I understood, but I was like, wow. I mean, when you see the stature and the athleticism of D1 college athletes, I was like. I just felt so in awe. Like, I was like, please show me your ways. Make me better.

Ben (14:56)

Oh, yeah, they're. They're big. They're huge.

Josh (14:59)

Six. Six.

Ben (14:59)

And they're huge.

Josh (15:00)

Unbelievable.

Ben (15:01)

Oh, yeah. You have to be, Josh. There's so much sports going on. Okay? There's the All Star Weekend. There's the Olympics. Have you been watching the Olympics? Claudia is. By the way, no one loves the Olympics more than Claudia. I've seen every event. There is not an event that you could have seen if you've been watching that I haven't already seen.

Josh (15:19)

Okay, so break down. What are you watching for the Winter Olympics? What events really speak to you? We know the figure skating, but, like, give me some other ones.

Ben (15:27)

No, for me, since I'm a baby, you know, I'm obsessed with snowboarding and the half pipe. Shaun White was my. My guy. Okay? Me, 300 pounds, 13 years old. All I wanted to do was trick, blade, skateboard on half pipes and compete at the Winter Olympics in the half pipe for snowboarding. Because Shaun White was legendary. I loved it. That's my stuff. And even during the summer, like the BMX and the skateboarding, I love all that extreme stuff. Now, what are we watching, though, Josh? What are we watching? We've watched some of that, and these guys are still fantastic. There's something. The lore of a Shaun White is gone, but these guys are amazing, and their tricks are just out of this world. We've been watching figure skating. Of course we've been watching. What is the sport? I'm blanking on the name. It's kind of like shuffleboard where you push out the sterling.

Josh (16:18)

Curling.

Ben (16:18)

Curling. I love curling. Yeah. Okay. And I think I'd be great at curling. It's kind of like bocce ball but on ice. I couldn't do that move where you like, you know that intro move where you have to get into like that really low stance. I couldn't do that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's it. That's it. I couldn't do that. But we're watching curling. Watching some weird. There's some fucking weird sport where there's archery and speed biathlon and shooting. Nuts. Nuts. But so impressive. I mean we're watching everything. But. Yeah, that's my favorite, the half pipes. What about you?

Josh (16:54)

I like, I like men's hockey, obviously. I'm loving watching the Jewish story of the great A.J. edelman and the Israeli bobsled team, also known as shul runnings.

Ben (17:06)

Yes.

Josh (17:08)

Which has really been a feel good story, except for the sad fact that as it stands today, we're in last place.

Ben (17:14)

And before they went, they were robbed.

Josh (17:17)

Not good.

Ben (17:18)

No, they're having a tough. They're having a tough go, by the way. Look, I wish them all the luck in the world. If we're going to be good at a sport, it's not going to be bobsledding. Well, just.

Josh (17:28)

But A.J. funny enough, the great Alex Settleman talks about this in a special that AJ won a gold medal in his brother, by the way.

Ben (17:35)

His brother, Right.

Josh (17:36)

Alex is the brother, the comedian and then aj. Yes. So the Edelman family, very impressive.

Ben (17:42)

Very impressive.

Josh (17:43)

No relation to Julian. But A.J. i think had won in the skeleton. I think he had meddled in skeleton.

Ben (17:51)

Yes, yes.

Josh (17:53)

And moved to bobsledding. But yeah, we're in last place. But you know what? We're there and we're representing.

Ben (18:00)

We're there. We have a bobsled team. Okay. We have a bobsled team. It's great. I don't think we needed it, but look, it's great. I hope, I hope they do better next time and I'm proud of them for, for competing at all. Also, look, while we're talking about Jewish athletes. Danny. Eviya. Eviya or Evita.

Josh (18:19)

Daniya. Dani. I don't know. I just know it's Dani.

Ben (18:23)

Such a great basketball player. Shout out first all Star weekend he crushed representing his home country, the state of Israel. And just. I don't know, if you saw the LeBron clip, that just warmed the cockles of my heart. We love, like, just, like, Just like respectful athlete. And I was never a LeBron guy. Now it's so easy to win my allegiance. I'm a LeBron guy. How can I not be okay? Like, you say anything nice and encouraging towards Jews, I'm gonna feel good. But yeah, just like a really nice, heartfelt story. You know, we don't have that many athletes, so when we get a great athlete, when we get somebody amazing, we rally around him. And that's Danny, Denis, Dani, baby, who.

Josh (19:04)

I kind of look like.

Ben (19:06)

You do. You do. He's a part of. He's a part of your elk here. Grenier, your Leno. Grenier.

Josh (19:16)

Lenye.

Ben (19:16)

Yeah. But yeah, you do kind of look like him.

Josh (19:22)

Yeah. The Olympics. The Olympics are interesting. And then, of course, there was NBA All Star Weekend, where they have. What I always look forward to is the slam dunk contest, which to me felt less exciting than the years before. I want to see someone jump over a Hyundai, you know?

Ben (19:38)

Yeah.

Josh (19:38)

If you're not jumping over a Hyundai Palisade calligraphy edition, which I have for the next three months. And let me tell you, Hyundai, thank you. What a sled this is. But, yeah, I want to see. I want to see some razzle dazzle. Just straight dunking. It's impressive, but I want a little. Little showmanship.

Ben (19:55)

I just praised LeBron. So I'm sorry that I have to blame LeBron because now I'm a LeBron fan, but I'm going to. One of the reasons I was not a LeBron fan is he ruined the slam dunk contest. Why LeBron? Because LeBron didn't compete in the slam dunk contest. It used to be that the best players showed up on All Star Weekend. The best players showed up on All Star Weekend. That's why you have those Jordan clips. The best players showed up on All Star Weekend, and now they don't. They're too good for it. You know what I mean? So now you have all these. These fricking no names. Sorry. Jackson Hayes. I called you a no name. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It just is what it is. We don't have guys anymore that are like the real high Flyers, the guys that we want to see. I want to see LeBron in the freaking slam dunk contest because he does the craziest dunks over his long, illustrious career in game. Like, it's just. It's just not there. And I don't know what the fuck they did to the actual All Star game. I haven't watched in a couple of years. He used to be east versus West. Now they have like four different games. It's all mixed. I don't even know what I was watching.

Josh (21:03)

Yeah, it's interesting. Although here's my question, right? Because the slam dunk is, you know, of all of the All Star weekend is certainly the most dangerous. A guy actually fell pretty hard over the weekend and hit his head and it was scary. But here's a question. So Winter Olympics going on right now. The great LA Kings, one of the players for Team usa, who is a LA Kings player, broke his tibia, amphibia, during, during one of the games. Not against Germany, but maybe against Denmark. And this has been a big point of contention between the NHL and the players union for the last like 15 years, which is the NHL owners, the team owners going, wait, wait. We invest millions of dollars into you and your body. When you're a professional athlete, you're really not allowed to ski. You can't ride a motorcycle because they're like, we're paying you for your body, for the health and safety of your body. We know you want to go represent your home country, but you can't. You can't compete in the Olympics. And of course the players union fought them and said no, they should be able to. What do you think? Who's right?

Ben (22:08)

Oh, in this case, this is a.

Josh (22:09)

Career ending or I'm sorry, a career season ending, God forbid, but a season ending injury. He won't be able to come back this season.

Ben (22:17)

No, this, this is a. This is different from the All Star weekend conversation. This conversation. I'm very sorry. To the NHL players, you cannot compete in the Olympics.

Caller (22:25)

Right?

Ben (22:26)

You can't, you can't, you can't. The season is currently happening. You're in the season. You also. So you're taking a month off of the season to go on your side quest.

Josh (22:36)

That's what it is.

Ben (22:37)

It's a side quest. You have a job to be in the National Hockey League and you're saying, I'm just going to go for a little while and play in this other hockey league. Okay. And then you get injured. It's a whole. That's. No, no, no.

Josh (22:53)

Can't do it.

Ben (22:54)

Hard pass. Can't do it.

Josh (22:55)

It's a. No bueno.

Ben (22:57)

But to your. I think your comparative point about you could get injured in the slam dunk contest. I would rather see LeBron pick his nose and do a windmill than Watch anybody do anything hard. Just knowing that the best guy showed up. It's why I love. I'll watch a charity golf tournament and I'll watch Steph Curry. And watching him play golf, he's just like, there's just an aura around these guys. Watching Steph Curry in the three point contest, there's an aura. It's just different. You're. It's prime time. You're watching the best players in the world do what they do best. And I have, I, I. Why do you have a wor. Why do you have more of a chance to get injured during the slam dunk contest? And you wouldn't actual game. They're all playing in the game and the game is so dumb. Like, I'd rather see a LeBron in the slam dunk contest. A Devin Booker in the three point contest. The best shooter should be in the three point contest. Otherwise. What? It's a three point contest. Why don't you put me in? Who cares?

Josh (24:01)

Like, do you think you have the cardio to keep up with the three point contest? Because that's like, you're shooting a lot of balls.

Ben (24:09)

I do. I think that my stamina at, at some point might taper. It is a lot of balls. What is it? It's 30 shots and they're quick in a minute. I would probably deal with stamina issues on like ball 20.

Josh (24:23)

That would be a good sequel to Marty Supreme, Farty supreme, which I just have to say. And you know, we're the biggest Timmy Boy fans here, but. And I'm sure you haven't seen it. Have you seen the Smashing Machine?

Ben (24:40)

No.

Josh (24:40)

I don't mean to pick sides here, as we know, two big movies last year, smashing machine, Marty McSoup, Supreme, Marty.

Ben (24:48)

Supreme, Safkey Brothers, Marty McSuper, Marty McFly.

Josh (24:53)

I always think back to the future, but they're. They were both directed by different Safdie brothers who usually direct. Together they directed Uncut Gems, what have you. And I was really. I love the Rock, but I was really reticent to watch the Smashing Machine because he was starring in it just because I was like, I don't know if I need a powerhouse dramatic performance from the Rock. He gives me so much more that I don't know. Like, I always think that with everyone. I go, do you have to be good at everything? You know, like, maybe just be great at the thing you do? Let me tell you, I watch this performance and I gotta say, I think the Rock should win the Academy Award for best Actor.

Ben (25:33)

Really? All right. Now I'll watch it. Cause I love the Rock. The man love him so good.

Josh (25:39)

He was brilliant.

Ben (25:40)

Wow.

Josh (25:41)

It was heartbreaking. It's a heartbreaking story. And he obviously, you know, he's playing an MMA fighter, so he was uniquely qualified to play this role. And the way he talks to, like, his coach or the officials for the matches and whatnot, like, it just feels so real because, you know, it is. It was less of like a, you know, a Chalamet DiCaprio performance and more of like Mickey Rourke and the wrestler. Like a. Yeah, like, it.

Ben (26:10)

It.

Josh (26:10)

He really was that guy.

Ben (26:12)

It.

Josh (26:12)

It moved me, man. Shout out the Rock. I give him all the respect. I think he should win.

Ben (26:18)

Is it on a streamer or. It's still in theaters.

Josh (26:21)

It's on max.

Ben (26:23)

Okay. All right. I will watch it because I love the Rock. See, I didn't even. I have my head so far up my ass, I didn't even know that the Rock was in. You're like, smashing House. I'm thinking of Smash Burgers. I didn't even know. I love the Rock. Okay.

Josh (26:35)

You love Smash Burgers.

Ben (26:37)

Yeah. No, I thought it was like a food network. You see Smashing House about all the Smash burgers that they're making on the streets. Thrashing machine. But, yeah, I'll watch it because I love the Rock. Oof. He's fantastic.

Josh (26:52)

Ben shows up, he thinks it's at a restaurant, and he's like, why are we in a movie theater? It's a weird restaurant. Where are the grills? That would have been a fun. That would have been a fun collab.

Ben (27:06)

Josh (30:27)

So you want to hear about my quick trip to the hospital on Thursday night?

Ben (30:31)

Yes. And I'm. I. Thank God he's okay. I had no idea. Okay, tell me he's okay. He's okay.

Josh (30:37)

He's okay. Thank God. As you will know, unfortunately, kids get this croup. This croup no good. And it's a viral illness that swells the airways. And so the telltale sign is a stridor type cough and breathing and a seal sound during the cough. It sounds something like this.

Ben (31:03)

That's really fucking scary. I would, I would shit my pants. It's scary. You're also in kid number three, so I hope, like. But I don't know if it makes it less scary, but it's. That would, that would freak the fuck out of me.

Josh (31:15)

Kids will have it multiple times before they're five, most likely. It's. It sounds super scary and it is. But the immediate treatment is just a good dose of steroid and it basically gives them instant relief. And my boys have had it, my older boys, but they've had it late. They never had it like before they were two. So in a seven month old, when you hear that coming from the nursery, you're like, ugh. And we tried to like give it time. And it's like midnight. And you know that you could probably tough it out. It's not in some cases, not medical advice here. You know, in many cases it's not an actual emergency, but you can tough it out and say, all right, well, maybe we can get a walk in with a pediatrician in the morning and they'll give the steroid at the pediatrician. But I looked at Paige and I just said, you know, it's gonna be a horrible night. Let me just take em.

Ben (32:09)

Yeah.

Josh (32:10)

So I go in, beautiful hospital, go to triage. They go, sir, what are you here for? And I've got Meyer and the little baby carrier car seat. And I pick it up and I go, well, he needs. And from that moment on they go, oh, doors open. They should have been Playing like, bar with the bar. The dang. The dang.

Ben (32:32)

Diggy diggy. The book said.

Josh (32:36)

I'm walking through there, I'm looking at people with broken legs. I'm like, this is sick. Babies here.

Ben (32:43)

Yeah, it's like the fast pass at the theme park.

Josh (32:48)

It was gorgeous. The. They couldn't have been better. And it's like, dude, the thing is. And you will go through it because we all do with kids, but I. God willing, it will be very little amount of hospital visits. The doctor comes out and it's. I'm talking to Dr. Robbie. I'm on the pit all of a sudden.

Ben (33:05)

Yeah.

Josh (33:06)

So sweet, cute. This guy's definitely at Max, early 40s. He's like, what's going on? Tell me about it.

Ben (33:13)

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Josh (33:14)

He goes, okay, I put the orders in. We'll monitor him for two hours. After, we'll make sure that he's doing okay. Nurses come in, K. They bring him little teddy bears. They're like, which one do you think he'd want? Oh, he's so cute. Let him have both.

Caller (33:27)

So great.

Ben (33:28)

Wow. Amazing.

Josh (33:30)

And then one of the nurses came over and asked for a photo. And I said, does this break hipaa? But who cares?

Ben (33:39)

It definitely. It does. But who cares? Who cares? It's three in the morning and they're treating him great, and I'm not the patient. That's true. That's true. So it probably doesn't break hipaa. Yeah, that's true. All right. Thank God he's okay. The pit, Josh, the pit. I'm behind, but I watched an episode last night. Are you fully caught up?

Josh (34:00)

I am.

Ben (34:00)

Okay, so I'll just. I'll tell you the episode that I just watched last night because there was. This might have been the most disgusting scene I've ever seen in the pit.

Josh (34:09)

Ok, go.

Ben (34:10)

Do you know what I'm. Do you know what I'm talking about?

Josh (34:12)

Sure. The impacted bowel.

Ben (34:14)

The impacted bowel. Ok, this. This was too much. Ok. Like, you watch and it's not a spoiler alert because I think. I think I'm like two weeks ago, puts on the glove, goes in this elderly woman, she's on her side, Keith her out. She hasn't shit in a week. They describe. Take your finger, curl it, stick it up the rectum, and you just see them pulling out her duty. And I'm just like, are you fucking nuts? Are you nuts? They do it twice, Josh. And you think to yourself, oh, it's over, it's over. All of a sudden, you Hear this old woman start to fart. You're ready to vomit. And she has explosive diarrhea. Explosive. On this young gun's chest. I wanted to die.

Josh (35:09)

So gross.

Ben (35:11)

It was vile. But we also lost. Rest in peace, my boy, Louie.

Josh (35:18)

Spoiler alert. Big spoiler alert, everyone. I know.

Ben (35:21)

It's weeks. Weeks old, right? Weeks. Yeah, yeah. Two weeks.

Josh (35:24)

Hey, listen, we are a recap podcast.

Ben (35:27)

Be up to date. Okay?

Josh (35:28)

You're good.

Ben (35:29)

Louis, Louie, Louie. Such a sweet man. And then Josh, when they sat around him. Okay. And they spoke about Louie's life, and I'm not gonna lie, I started to cry. Me, too. And Dr. Robbie said that Louis was married and he never wanted a child, and his wife convinced him that they should have a baby, and he had a baby, and the wife and the baby died in a car crash, and that's why he's such a chronic alcoholic. And it just. I just. It was horrible. Such a good show. I love it. I love it. I love it.

Josh (36:11)

I really. I love the show. It's. It's my favorite show. And I think they did a masterful job of, in my opinion, portraying alcoholism in that way, because having been, you know, in the 12 step rooms for almost 20 years, I. It was just my anniversary on Sunday of 18 years.

Ben (36:30)

And Mazotov. Thank you, guy. Big year.

Josh (36:35)

Love it. And, you know, he was. Louis was so. You know, people loved him, and he was so charming and fun, and you could see that look in his eyes where he really started to dry out when he really needed a drink. And then the turn comes and that despite even just the love of the people that worked at the hospital and all of their. Their, you know, them throwing everything they could at this issue, how sadly, most of the time, addiction wins. And. And that both can be true, that he was this lovely, charming, fun guy that they absolutely loved, and he also had this demon that was, you know, that wasn't going to subsist until the host was dead. That's what a virus does, right? The virus.

Ben (37:26)

Yeah.

Josh (37:26)

The virus doesn't stop until the host dies. And. Yeah, and it sadly got him. And it gets a lot of good, good people.

Ben (37:34)

Yeah. Yeah. He was a beautiful character. Who's your least favorite? I have one that I can't fucking stand. Who's your least favorite character on the pit?

Josh (37:43)

I always think I have one, and then they. They redeem them for me. So who's like, I wind up liking them at the end of the season?

Ben (37:51)

I haven't had. I'm waiting for her redemption arc. I can't stand Dr. Santos. I can't stand her, okay? She's so curmudgeony and just, like, grumpy and annoying and I get it. I get it, okay? Work's hard. Why can't you be like Whittaker, okay? He's. He's breath of fresh air, okay? Even after watching his great Louis perish, he's a breath of fresh air. You force you, Santos, force Whitaker to go in with that patient with the bowels. I just can't stand her. She's so fucking annoying. There's no way you like her. You can't like her. I'm sure that sure redemption arc. It'll come.

Josh (38:39)

Oh, you're gonna love her.

Ben (38:40)

Nobody can like her. Nobody can like her right now.

Josh (38:42)

And that's what they're. And that's where they're taking us. Buckle up. Let the ride go. Let it go. But as we know. And this is my favorite new TikTok trend. Have you seen this? With the. The great charge nurse, the. What's her name? The nurse who runs the entire pit that we all love. She's like.

Ben (39:01)

I forgot her name. The blonde. The blonde woman.

Josh (39:02)

She won. Won the Emmy last year. Wonderful actor. So there's an episode, and this has become a trend on TikTok. There is an episode where a baby gets left at the pit.

Ben (39:15)

Yes.

Josh (39:15)

And so they're taking care of the baby. And so this nurse has this line, which is, baby Jane Doe.

Ben (39:24)

Baby Jando.

Josh (39:28)

Baby Janto. And now everyone on TikTok's just like, where? Dr. Robbie, where's baby Jane Doe? Baby Jane Doe.

Ben (39:38)

I haven't seen that yet. To send it to me. So funny. And you sound just like her. That's actually a great impression of her.

Josh (39:47)

Oh, my God. It's so good. Dr. Santos.

Ben (39:52)

What? It's so good.

Josh (39:54)

Why the frown? The show is so good.

Ben (39:58)

It's phenomenal, Josh. Topical Thursdays, even though we're talking about an episode from two Thursdays ago. But that's my fault. I gotta catch up.

Josh (40:06)

You are caught up. That was the most recent EP where Louis dies. Yeah. Yeah.

Ben (40:10)

Oh, amazing. Okay. All right, so then. Actually, spoiler alert. I didn't give you much time to watch it. I'm sorry. It's so good. Oh, yeah. Because we watched two episodes last night. I had two banked. There's nothing better than that when you can bank two, love. I love it because you want to keep it. You want to eat them. You want to keep eating my.

Josh (40:28)

You know what you should do after this is Watch the Nick.

Ben (40:32)

The Nick.

Josh (40:33)

The Nick was a brilliant show. With Clive Owens. Steven Soderbergh directing. Brilliant show about the Knickerbocker Hospital in New York at the turn of the 19th century.

Ben (40:44)

Oh, thank God. That's what it is. I was afraid. I was like, is it the nicu? And it's just like a sad. I was like, I don't want to watch that show. I don't need that. Oh, it's Knickerbocker Hospital. Okay. It is Knickerbocker Hospital.

Josh (40:56)

It went two seasons. It's brilliant. You'll love it. I think it was on like Showtime or Cinemax, something.

Ben (41:02)

Where does Knickerbocker come from? So we had a Knickerbocker Hospital. And as everybody knows, the New York Knicks were originally the New York Knickerbocker. Do we know what a Knickerbocker is or who is a Knickerbocker? Is it a person?

Josh (41:14)

I think it has to do with like early 1800s. Well, what was New York before it was New York, New Amsterdam?

Ben (41:21)

So, yeah, and I think it's. I think the old logo was like a Dutchman. So that makes sense. That makes sense. This episode of the Good Guys podcast is brought to you by our friends at Ollie.

Josh (45:30)

So I was going to go into a speak pipe, but as you know, we've had quite the issues with with our moron male speak pipes where people call in to get advice and ask us questions and they've been awful for years.

Ben (45:43)

We're thinking of killing the segments.

Josh (45:46)

I have to listen to them. One in five are good. So I thought, you know, we've always been a little bit abstract obtuse with our declaring that they're not good and you thinking, well, what makes them not good? So I thought why don't we play a couple speak pipes that are bad, that ain't great. This is not a condemnation of the person. This is just an example. This is purely for research purposes.

Ben (46:13)

This is what not to do. Ok, don't do this. Make something up. Make it up.

Josh (46:21)

And this is why we tell you, don't give us your what do you nuts'. This first one is from Kaylee.

Caller (46:30)

Hey, you guys. Okay, two questions. One, I'm wondering if Ben has ever heard of Tom Hearn. He does one of the best Ina Garten impressions that I've ever seen and I know Ben is obsessed with her and so he needs to look into Tom Heard. He is genuinely so great at it. So I know he would thoroughly enjoy that. Second question. I teach middle school, specifically eighth grade, and I'm wondering if you, Josh, are caught up on any of the young sling. I know you have your oldest and he's kind of getting into that phase and I know he like loves Mr. Beast and I know for a fact that they use slang in those YouTube videos. And so I was just wondering, like, what would be your favorite Gen Z slang of the moment. Thanks a lot.

Josh (47:28)

Love you, Kaylee.

Ben (47:29)

Love you. Okay, not bad. Let's dissect. No, let's just dissect what could have been better. So, yes, the Tom Hearn. I don't know him. DM me, I'm looking. Or send me a video. That's an easier way for me to see him. Okay, right now, Josh I am curious. I'm not gonna lie. Not that bad. What's your favorite Gen Z slang?

Josh (47:48)

Six, seven? I don't know. So fucking stupid.

Ben (47:53)

Mean. Six' seven.

Josh (47:54)

I'll tell you what I hate. I hate dead ass.

Ben (47:57)

Is that a thing? Dead ass?

Josh (47:58)

Yeah, it's like.

Ben (47:59)

Is new slang.

Josh (48:00)

It's like, on God or like, I swear to God, like, dead ass means, like, I am not lying to you. Hate it.

Ben (48:06)

No, but I think dead ass, that's. That's new. Deadass. I think dead. No, dead ass has been around. Yeah.

Josh (48:13)

Yeah, it's been around, but I don't like it.

Ben (48:14)

Okay. Okay, cool. Yeah, yeah, I'm good with it.

Josh (48:17)

I hate bruh. And it's all over. Even Max says it. Bruh. Bruh. I just.

Ben (48:24)

I think it's for what, Whack? In what context are we saying bruh?

Josh (48:27)

Just like, it's bro, but then it becomes bruh, and then it's just like bruh. Like for anything. It's interchangeable. Good, bad, medium, bruh. Why'd you throw it like that, bruh? What's up, bruh? Crazy.

Ben (48:41)

You are HIV Aladdin. You remember that from the Dictator? No, What? Sacha Baron Cohen's the Dictator.

Josh (48:50)

I remember the movie.

Ben (48:52)

Oh, my God. Aladdin means yes or no, positive or negative. So he's at the doctor and he says, you are HIV Aladdin, and we never know if he has aids.

Josh (49:01)

Great. So good. So good.

Ben (49:07)

So good and so dumb. He's such a genius. Okay, bruh. Yeah. And I've heard this. Six, seven. I don't know what that means. I don't get it. Okay. But, yeah, look, by the way, Josh, there have been worse. No, by the way, it wasn't that bad. It wasn't that bad. But that means if that wasn't that bad, they're really bad ones.

Josh (49:24)

Let's run another. Let's really look. And maybe I won't. That was. I'm glad I said her name, because it actually wasn't bad. We love you, Kaylee. I'm gonna keep these anonymous and just say, here, here's one. Okay, here's what.

Caller (49:36)

Hey, Josh and Ben, fellow moron here and a fellow toaster. Love you guys. Love the podcast. I have a. What are you nuts? Honestly, dating apps is my. What are you nuts? I know you both are happily married, but as a girl who is 32, I'm struggling on these apps. What is up with men Writing hey, what's up you? Then responding with a message, and then they don't reply. Like, there's no effort. And then they unmatch you. And then, like, three days later, it says, so and so liked you, but you just unmatched me three days ago. Like, what are you, nuts? Like, did you forget that you didn't like me three days ago? Like, I. I hate the dating world so much. Dating on Long island has to be the hardest thing. I don't know if you guys have, like, any single friends that, like, you know, are on the dating apps that could, like, relate to this, but honestly, they fucking suck. So just want to know, like, it.

Josh (50:38)

Just sounds like a Jerry Seinfeld.

Ben (50:40)

Is it over? Is it over?

Josh (50:42)

It sounds like a Seinfeld bit without the talent.

Ben (50:45)

Look, here's the deal. This is. There's a reason why we say, don't give us your what are you nuts? Is so first and foremost, we say, don't give us your what are you nuts? Is so don't. Okay, look, I'm still gonna talk about it, okay? What's. Guys stink? What do you want from me? Guys stink, okay? Dating apps are terrible for women because guys stink. You never know their true intentions. They're going on there. They're looking to see if you'll respond. If you respond too fast, they know that you're interested, and then they're all of a sudden not interested because they stink. They stink. So I'm sorry. I'm very sorry, but that's it. What are you, nuts?

Josh (51:25)

What are you, nuts? Here's another one from someone else. Okay, good.

Caller (51:30)

Guys, this question is for Josh. My name is Sam, and I was just watching thirteen, the Musical, which you bet, Sam.

Josh (51:39)

This one is beyond. I can't. Basically, she goes, you're in the movie thirteen, the Musical, and they have a bar mitzvah in the movie, and it's held at a church. What are you nuts? Isn't that crazy? I'm like. It's a major plot point that in the small town of Indiana where he is, there's no shul, so they have it at the church. It watched the whole thing. But, like, not only is that a mail, but it's. You sent it as your. What do you. Nuts. It ain't.

Ben (52:11)

Ain't it. Okay, make stuff up. Make stuff up. Your sister Cassie beat the fuck. Okay? Beat the fuck out of your cat. And now you're pressing charges against Cassie. Okay, that's it. It's that easy. You don't have to have a cat, and you don't have to have a sister named Cassie. Make it up. I'll never know I won't know.

Josh (52:37)

Now, let me play you the last one before Woody Nuts. Let me play you an interesting inquiry we got and leave it up to the morons to tell us where or when or if we ever would want to do this.

Ben (52:48)

Hey, guys, I was just wondering if you wanted to have Joe Exotic from Tiger King on your podcast.

Josh (52:53)

I think that would be kind of interesting. To show the world the truth and.

Ben (52:58)

To share that with your audience. I was wondering if you guys could give me a call.

Josh (53:03)

My cell is. I guess it's Joe Exotic. Sounds like a rep.

Ben (53:10)

Sounds like a great job for Olivia. I am not calling him. Just in case. You never know. Wow. I would love to have this on the podcast. You saw. Did you see that documentary?

Josh (53:23)

Of course. Covid. The hype Covid.

Ben (53:26)

I mean, I'm down. It sounds like he. It sounds like it's going to be a load of propaganda, so we're going to need to just like, warning, flash warning. Nothing on here is true or, I don't know, like, it could be, but we're not sure. We're going to need a warning label. I would love to have him on. Josh, that's viral.

Josh (53:46)

You got to.

Ben (53:46)

Or do people. Do people not care anymore?

Josh (53:48)

I don't know if people care. And you also have to believe someone's not great. When Trump's willing to pardon everyone who was involved in January6. George Santos, but not Joey Boy. Like, it ain't good.

Ben (54:00)

And he's been asking. I've seen him up in all the. Not recently, but it used to be, like, every single Instagram post, I would see him pop up. Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me. And it's like, there's gotta be a better way to get to Trump than through public Instagram comments. What, are you nuts? Joe? But I'd love to have him on. Love to. Yeah, right. Why not? So he's currently in prison or. No. Yeah, so what? What, we'd have him on from jail?

Josh (54:29)

How would we do that? I don't know. Maybe over a collect.

Ben (54:33)

Collect call or we set up from jail. Yeah, I'm in. And maybe there's like, another inmate in there that we could like. We just do like, jail day. We bang. Like, bang out, like three episodes of the Guys Incarcerated in.

Josh (54:47)

We get the call in. It's like, from Otis Ville Correctional Facility. Hey, morons, it's me, Joe Exotic. Do you accept the charges?

Ben (55:01)

The same voice for Joe Exotic as you do. Todd Chrisley.

Josh (55:07)

Oh, my God, Todd Chrisley. He's definitely coming on.

Ben (55:11)

Yeah, yeah, he Was pardoned.

Josh (55:13)

Toddy. Boy, was he pardoned.

Ben (55:14)

Parks out.

Josh (55:15)

Pardon me.

Ben (55:17)

I think so. I think he was pardoned. I think he was pardoned. Yeah.

Josh (55:20)

Yeah. Wow, that's an exciting moment.

Ben (55:24)

Josh. Josh, you got a Woody and Nuts? I do.

Josh (55:27)

Our what are you, nuts? Moment are gripes with people, places and things both big and small. Whatever's sticking in your craw. My Woody and nuts moment is. It's gonna be something good. What's yours?

Ben (55:41)

Yeah, I have a great one. Okay. Josh.

Josh (55:44)

Yes.

Ben (55:45)

I love Gopuff. Let me just first shout that out. Okay. I love Gopuff. Greatest app ever. You need literally anything delivered in under 20 minutes. It's GoPuff. Gopuff likes to do. And I love this about them. They love to put in, like a free little sampler. You order waters, maybe you order candy, and they'll throw in. They see you ordered candy, they'll throw in a little extra candy. Maybe it's a new candy and the candy company is trying to assess either if people like it or not, or they're just trying to do samples. Josh, I got the most disgusting candy ever. Josh, have you heard of Skittles Fuego?

Josh (56:24)

No, but that sounds. Is it.

Ben (56:26)

With Tajin, I almost threw up. This is a soft, gummy Skittles that tasted like it was just dumped in Sriracha. My mouth was on fire. It was. It was vile. It was vile. Wow. Sorry. Skittles. What are you nuts? You're good. You're good. It's sweet. I don't. I don't want. I don't want flaming hot Skittles. It was disgusting. What do you. Nuts? I didn't eat it.

Josh (56:57)

My what are you, nuts? Moment is at the great equinox. You know, I love, love, love my wonderful equinox. And the trainers there are so great. And sometimes the trainers will offer to put you through a workout, like kind of, you know, pro bono, nice little free 20 minute session. Because you're like, oh, I get along well with this guy. I felt a great burn. Maybe I will hire him to do some sessions. Well, one of my favorite trainers here, he looks at me and goes, hey, man, about to do a big leg workout today. You want to join me? I have a great setup. I said, oh, yeah? What are you doing? He goes, well, I actually created it for athletes. I'm like. And he's thinking about me, huh? And he goes, yep, Athletes and the physically disabled. Are you nuts? You could have left out the second part, Jack.

Ben (57:46)

That's funny.

Josh (57:47)

I'm clearly the second part. Yeah. What are you, nuts? Just say athletes.

Ben (57:53)

Just say athletes. Make me feel good. What are you, nuts? You know what else is nuts, Josh? Not giving this episode five stars. That's nuts. Okay, we only want five star reviews. Okay? Rate, review, subscribe. Do we still say that review? We don't even have to do the rating and the subscribing. We'd like it, but just review. 5 stars. No fours, no threes, no twos, no ones. Just fives. And once a week. Once a week. Twice a week. One day I'll get this down. Mr. Beast ruined my flow.

Josh (58:30)

I know. He's so intimidating.

Ben (58:32)

Twice a week we are going to read aloud a beautiful five star review.

Josh (58:37)

We sure are.

Ben (58:38)

But again, not fours, not threes. Because, Josh, we like to end every episode on a positive note. We're positive kings. Mondays and Thursdays we end with positivity. And this five star review is from.

Josh (58:53)

Ben (58:59)

Okay, Sarbarbum. Thank you, Sar. Barebum.

Josh (59:02)
