Introduction and Playful Banter (00:00 - 03:07)

The episode kicks off with the trio—Aaron Keefe, Adal Rifai (Adol), and John Patrick Coan (JPC)—engaging in light-hearted banter about Instagram teen accounts designed to ensure adolescent safety online. Using analogies related to everyday safety measures, they humorously parallel digital protections to physical ones.

• Aaron Keefe (00:11): "Alright, sweetie pie, buckle up. Good job."
• Adol (00:25): "Or ring the bell on their bike."

This playful exchange sets a comedic tone, showcasing their improvisational skills and chemistry.

Beverly Shubadoo and Persona Play (11:00 - 19:34)

A significant portion of the episode centers around a humorous subplot involving the creation of a new persona, Beverly Shubadoo. Aaron introduces this character as someone actively pursuing JPC's wife, leading to a series of comedic interactions.

• Aaron Keefe (12:09): "I have a new Persona that is actively pursuing JPC's wife."
• Adol (12:15): "She is."

The hosts role-play interactions with Beverly, exploring themes of mistaken identity and relationship dynamics with a comedic twist.

Stand-Up Comedy and Joke Sharing Etiquette (06:05 - 09:17)

The discussion shifts to the world of stand-up comedy, where Adol shares his perspective on joke-sharing within the community. Contrary to Aaron's experience, Adol emphasizes a collaborative environment among comedians.

• Adol (06:05): "We share jokes because writing them is hard."

• Casey (49:40): "Which two professional North American sports teams would be the best at competing in that competition."

For example, when tasked with matching teams for a Pokémon competition, JPC cleverly identifies the Cincinnati Reds and the St. Louis Blues as "Pokemon Red and Blue."

The segment is filled with witty exchanges and creative connections, demonstrating the hosts' quick thinking and familiarity with sports franchises.

Word Game: RadDle Introduction (67:16 - 69:23)

The hosts share their experiences with RadDle, praising its creativity and challenging nature.

• JPC (68:07): "I started playing it the correct way, it was amazing."
• Adol (69:11): "If someone got all the answers right the very first time, they'd be Raddle."

Quality Time and Koality Time Shows Promotion (70:07 - 73:26)

[JPC]

Hey, Casey. Hey, Casey. I can still hear her in my headset. Can we. Can we fix that?

[Adol]

She's still really shrill. Annoying. Casey, is there anything we can do about that?

[Aaron Keefe]

Can you turn down how chatty you are, Aaron? Really naggy today in my headphones. So stupid.

[Adol]

Oh, Lord. Both of them were goldfish. It was the cannon of an airplane. He stabbed him with an ice and.

[JPC]

The horses seem rid. Whose episode is this?

[Aaron Keefe]

Okay, I don't have an idea.

No, no.

[JPC]

[Adol]

[Aaron Keefe]

I don't remember. I think I went.

[Adol]

Okay, well, Casey put it in. I guess Casey will have to put it in.

[JPC]

Okay, Aaron, I'll set you up. I'll set you up here.

[Aaron Keefe]

Okay, great.

[JPC]

This is Aaron Keefe's audition for Moulin Rouge. The venue. Sorry, we time traveled. The venue, not the show.

[Aaron Keefe]

I have all the right diseases from 1900 to be here.

[JPC]

Sing em.

[Adol]

Are you willing to shave?

[Aaron Keefe]

Of course not. It's 1900.

[Adol]

Did you say corset?

[Aaron Keefe]

Corset. It's 1900 or 1890, whatever the fuck.

[Adol]

Who can say? Hey, the only thing that I can say is I'm JPC. That's Aaron over there, and to my left is Mr. Adler Fai. We are the podcast. What the fuck was that?

[Aaron Keefe]

We are the podcast.

[Adol]

We're the podcast.

[Aaron Keefe]

Guys, we did it. We're the cockroaches of podcasts. We're the only one left. How's the water wars going for everyone else?

[JPC]

We can't die.

[Adol]

This is the only podcast that can never die. This is. Hey, Riddle. Riddle, the podcast about riddles.

[JPC]

And this is a podcast where it's two in the morning. You go into the kitchen, turn on the light. This podcast scuttles under the fridge.

[Aaron Keefe]

Oh, yeah.

[JPC]

And you go tomorrow. I gotta call somebody about this podcast.

[Aaron Keefe]

This podcast is like when you can hear something under Your front porch. And then so you have to lift up one of the stairs to see what's under the front porch.

[JPC]

Aaron. What?

[Aaron Keefe]

And then it's under there. The podcast under there. And its eyes are, like, really beady in the dark.

[JPC]

And it's like the podcast feels cornered.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah.

[Adol]

This is the podcast that is the can of pinto beans deep within your cabinet. And you. It's got, like, dust all over, and you blow the dust and you go, oh, certainly this. This has to be expired. And then you check the back, and it's like 2045. And you're like, how can pinto beans be good for this long?

[JPC]

Well, they're always good this long. If they're Goya Goya beans, let them.

[Aaron Keefe]

Collect dust and have them at a pinch.

[Adol]

I think the Goya guy is, like a Trump guy, right?

[JPC]

Never mind. Any other beans. Any other beans of the.

[Adol]

Any other beans by any other day would smell as sweet. Bean spirits don't buy Goya beans unless something has changed. From, like, 11 years ago when I heard about Goya beans.

[Aaron Keefe]

This podcast is like when you. There's like an ashtray outside, and people have been putting cigarettes out in it, and then it rains. We're like, the water in the ashtray. And that is like, sort of the vibe of our podcast.

[JPC]

This podcast is like when you're on a. And you have like a 20 ounce bottled water, and you take a little sip, and then you go to put it in the back of the seat, but then it falls on the ground, and then the plane kind of does a tip and then rolls forward under the seats, and you're like, oh, no. And then someone looks behind, like, did you just kick me? And it's like, can I get that? My water bottle? My water just. Can I get.

[Adol]

Did you just kick me with this water bottle?

[JPC]

That's what this podcast is, I think.

[Adol]

Now, Adam, let me ask you a question. 20 ounce bottle of water. Is this a bottle you're bringing from home, or are you buying water at the airport?

[JPC]

Can I blow your fucking mind?

[Adol]

Absolutely.

[JPC]

There's not a flight I've gotten on in the last, I want to say, seven years since I've been with Jemma, where I didn't get a free thing of water. Because every flight we go on, Jemma says, I work with Spirit. I'm also a flight attendant. Let me know if you need anything. And immediately they always say, do you need anything? Do you need water? Snacks? And we get our pick.

[Adol]

Wow.

[JPC]

So it's kind of a. Why do tenants looking out for each other.

[Adol]

Wow. And they just hand you the full bottle, huh?

[JPC]

And Casey go ahead and edit out JPC saying stewardess. Yeah. They just give you a big bottle.

[Adol]

Oh, wow, that's beautiful. That's cool that the flight attendants take care of each other like that. Do you think that is true for other professions or do you think cause flight attendant is like a union profession? Is that like a union solidarity thing? Podcasters don't do that. We don't take care of each other like that.

[Aaron Keefe]

Well, this podcast is if, like you're staying at a motel and you go down to the front desk and ask for an extra blanket because your room is freezing, and they give you that, like, horrible scratchy wool blanket. We're like that blanket. So no, we don't take care of each other.

[Adol]

Casey, edit out when Aaron called that hotel staff person the stewardess.

[JPC]

Oh, come on. Well, it's just.

[Aaron Keefe]

Keep it in.

[JPC]

Not even sexist. It's just wrong and sexist, Gypsy. I think both. I think standups still will. If they. If they find out somebody else is a stand up, they'll. They'll not laugh for them. Like, they'll sit in a crowd with their arms crossed.

[Adol]

Oh, that's not, that's not my experience because I've. I've not had much experience doing standup, but usually when I'm doing stand up and I run into another standup in the wild or in the world, they give me a joke and they say, go ahead and use it. You can use this joke. It's. It's everyone. Yeah, well, we share jokes. That's what people don't know about our community is that we share jokes because writing them is hard. And a lot of it is just like, if we can split the labor, you know, it's like, why. Why do double labor, you know?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, it's a really good point.

[Adol]

It's a really, really good point. And it's a really good group of guys.

[JPC]

Aw. I feel like a lot of.

[Aaron Keefe]

Can you edit out JBC saying stewardess Is there?

[Adol]

Can I. Can you edit in me calling all stand up stewardesses? The guy that calls any woman at a professional capacity a stewardess.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah.

[Adol]

I went to the hospital because my fucking neck was killing me. And the stewardess working on me in the hospital. It's like, what's your date of birth?

[Aaron Keefe]

What's your age, nurse?

[Adol]

I'm sorry. Yeah, no, I should be drinking this beer faster. You're right. I shouldn't be there today.

[JPC]

Stop nursing your beer. The beer was a Woman. And the beer was a woman.

[Adol]

You never believe it. I was at the bus stop the other day. Bus pulls up, they got a stewardess driving the bus.

[Aaron Keefe]

I love this.

[Adol]

This rock. I'm about to join the 10ft high club, if you know what I'm saying. How far do I think a bus sits up off the ground?

[JPC]

10Ft high.

[Aaron Keefe]

You're calling yourself out. You're roasting yourself. This guy over here thinks the bus is 10ft off the ground. It's you.

[Adol]

I'm the stand up.

[JPC]

Thanks for riding the 67 bus, everyone. We cannot go under any overpass.

[Aaron Keefe]

Thank you for riding the 69, everyone.

[JPC]

We can't go by any street light. We can't go by.

[Aaron Keefe]

We can't do anything.

[JPC]

Yeah, we will be doing donuts in this one chunk of street.

[Adol]

The jokes about the guys who think like that are fun until you, like, kind of have the sad moment where you're like, there's probably a couple of hundred guys like that that really do exist.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, more than that. More than that.

[Adol]

Or the guys who are like, yeah, firefighters and firefightresses.

[Aaron Keefe]

What kind of plant is a firefight? Those are really high maintenance plants. Yeah.

[JPC]

Oh, wait, my ficress score is very low.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah.

[JPC]

Good or bad?

[Aaron Keefe]

We don't know. We don't know. Adol, I'm so sorry.

[Adol]

I got. Oh, I was gonna say yesterday I bought some coffee, and on the coffee, like, it had, like, a bunch of bullshit, like, you know how, like, marketing copy or whatever, but it had this thing on it that said, like, gender equality. And it just. It struck me as weird, so I was like, why is my. Why did I buy gender equality coffee? Like, what is this? What's. What is the thing that they're trying to say? And it said on the coffee, it was like, gender equality making, like, you know, coffee growing sustainable, blah, blah, blah, for, like, both men and women. And I was like, so you're going out of your way to do gender equality shit, but you're still doing, like, gender essentialism. You're still just me. Like, there's men or women, and both are equal. We do like equality, but only for those two categories.

[JPC]

To enjoy this story, I have to know, was it a barista or baristo?

[Adol]

Yeah, I went to my baristo in my baristress.

[JPC]

Aaron, would you like to be called a podcastress?

[Adol]

Yes, actually, I think I would like to be called a podcast. No, that's my thing.

[JPC]

Yeah, it actually sounds. I want that too.

[Aaron Keefe]

It makes it sound like I have a silk cape and I'M riding on a horse.

[Adol]

Oh, I saw like. Like a leather riding crop, which I guess you could have on a horse as well.

[Aaron Keefe]

I'm. I have a real Irene Adler vibe. Is that the woman from Sherlock Holmes? She's a stewardess.

[Adol]

The stewardess from Sherlock Holmes.

[JPC]

The stewardess from Sherlock Holmes. The stewardess from Sherlock Holmes.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yay.

[Adol]

Oh, this is only. Guys, listen out here. This is only funny in a safe space. This is not a funny thing to do at your work.

[Aaron Keefe]

You can't start.

[Adol]

Like it.

[Aaron Keefe]

We told you guys that we are. We told you that we are the sludge of podcasting. We warned you at the beginning of the podcast.

[Adol]

We are the premier sludge podcast.

[Aaron Keefe]

Jpc, before I get into riddles, I just want to know, how's your wife?

[Adol]

What the is going on? You mean my wife, Tris?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, your wife's dress.

[Adol]

How's my spouse dress?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, how's your spouse dress?

[Adol]

Okay, let me check my phone. I think my wife is good. She's at work right now. You texting my wife, Aaron?

[Aaron Keefe]

I was thinking about it. You see, I have a new Persona that is actively pursuing JPC's wife. So we'll just keep checking in throughout the year to see if she ends up staying with old jpc.

[Adol]

I was hanging out with. I was hanging out with Adol yesterday, and I was trying to text you Aaron while Adel and I were hanging out. And I kept putting Aaron in my phone, and it was not pulling up at all. And I told Adel. I was like, I knew the second I did this that this was gonna be a big problem for me, but I changed Aaron's name in my phone to her new Persona, Beverly Schubidhoo. And now every time I go to text her, I'm like, what the fuck is Aaron's notice? Is my phone fucking broken?

[Aaron Keefe]

It's like, no, no, it's Beverly Schubidoo.

[JPC]

Aaron, is Beverly Shubidu with us today?

[Aaron Keefe]

She is.

[JPC]

And Beverly Shubidu, what is your favorite word?

[Aaron Keefe]

Shooba doo.

[JPC]

And Beverly Shubadoo. If you meet God at the gates of heaven, what do you hope he says to you?

[Aaron Keefe]

Your wife Mariah is inside.

[JPC]

Sorry, your godstress.

[Adol]

Hey, good news for me. I mean, kind of bad news for me that my wife's dead. But heaven.

[Aaron Keefe]

Not your wife anymore. She's Shoebidoo.

[JPC]

Oh, I forgot the best. I forgot the best one. Beverly Shubadoo. Final question. What is your favorite curse word?

[Aaron Keefe]

Shuba doo.

[JPC]

That makes sense.

[Adol]

I like Beverly Shubadoo. But in my Book.

[Aaron Keefe]

No, you don't.

[Adol]

Well, no, I hate her because we're in direct competition, but I also kind of already won Shubadoo, so. Hey, gpc, you're playing catch up.

[JPC]

Jpc. Were you gonna say, in your mind it's Adam Sandler in a wig?

[Adol]

I was gonna say. I say it like Adam Sandler.

[JPC]

I say, yeah, same. It sounds like somebody asked Adam Sandler, like, what's your favorite hills? And he goes, oh, Beverly, how can.

[Aaron Keefe]

You compete with someone that your wife invented? She named me.

[Adol]

Eren made up a Persona while we were on the Joco cruise. Well, I wouldn't say Eren made up a Persona. Mariah made up a Persona for a. Based on the way that Eren was dressing and acting. So Eren. Eren only packs costumes to go on this, like, weeklong boat, you know, trip that we all went on together.

[Aaron Keefe]

Cause I'm fun, and I know what life's all about. Continue.

[Adol]

Well, I don't think you are, Aaron, but I think Beverly Shubadoo is all of those things. I think that you went into a fugue state, packed someone else's bags, opened them up, and then said, this is me for a week.

[JPC]

Yeah, it's like a Hannah Montana situation.

[Aaron Keefe]

And what was your favorite costume of mine or outfit?

[Adol]

I liked the one on the last day that, like, white nautical themed. Like, I think you said it was like an Etsy jacket that you found for $3.

[Aaron Keefe]

EBay jacket.

[Adol]

Yeah, an EBay jacket that you found for $3. I think that one was my favorite.

[Aaron Keefe]

Thank you. I'm gonna get you a nautical thing.

[Adol]

It was the only thing that you had with a modicum of modesty, which, hey, don't get me wrong. I like my stewardesses to show a.

[JPC]

Little way, but pinches.

[Adol]

Go ahead, delete that.

[Aaron Keefe]

No, double it.

[JPC]

Aaron, my favorite outfit you wore was. I think it was. Was it the last day as well is when I. When I told you you look like the world's most expensive Muppet. It was like a jacket with, like, tinsel on it.

[Aaron Keefe]

Oh, yeah. That was the pig pony party.

[Adol]

Oh, yeah. For the. Yeah. And then, Aaron, you also brought at least two wigs, correct? I think I saw you in at least two.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, There were several wigs in my bag. There were several wigs when I was wearing that pink wig with the tinsel jacket, I went up to the performer bar and walked by Paula Tompkins and went, hi. And he went, hi. And I was like, that's weird. We performed together last night. I thought we had a nice Little rapport going strange. And then I posted a photo on Instagram that night of me wearing that. And he responded to my Instagram story with all caps being like, oh, my God, I had no idea it was you. What the fuck? Like, so confused because I really transform in a wig. Beverly Shuvadu was there, not Aaron.

[JPC]

There's a moment on the crew on Joco where I saw. I saw someone in the. I saw a group of people in the casino, all wearing, like, fun costumes. And one of them looked at me and I was like, that girl looks just like Aaron. And then she waved at me and I go, oh, no. And I walked away very quickly. And then Eren was like, it was nice to see you in the casino. And I was like, I didn't know it was you. And I got so scared. I'm like, oh, this woman caught me staring at her.

[Adol]

She's waving at somebody else.

[JPC]

But I was like, she looks just like Eren. But I truly. My first instinct was not, that's Eren in a costume. It was, but it's.

[Adol]

But it wasn't Aaron Adel. It was Beverly.

[Aaron Keefe]

Beverly Shubadoo. And now we know that, you guys, if you want your friend, if you want to think all your friends are mad at you, wear a wig because they all look at you and be like. And I was like. And Adol walked away. And I was like, is Adol pissed at me?

[Adol]

What did I do? What did I do? Aaron, let me ask you, do you think that that is a good way to, like, see if your friends are mad at you or. No, you're just. That's a good way to make you think your friends are mad at you. Yeah. Because I do think it would be nice if you were going to, like, a party to go in, like, full prosthetic costume so that you could, like, see who was going to talk shit about you. You know, that would be. That would be like a fun social experiment.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, but I wouldn't randomly go up to, like, a guy I didn't know at a party that's wearing, like, a mustache and a top hat, being like, yeah, do you got a little time for me to vent about jpc?

[Adol]

So what do you think prosthetics are? Because I love. I love mustache, top hat, but I just don't know I would qualify.

[Aaron Keefe]

No, I know. I know you. You'd go too far. Before I get. Go ahead, Adel.

[JPC]

Oh, please, please.

[Aaron Keefe]

I was going to say, before I get into riddles, if you guys ever went back on the Joko Cruise, would you take a page out of Beverly Shubadoo's book and have a little bit more fun with what you're wearing?

[JPC]

I would be. I'm going to wear. If I get to go back to Joco, which I very much hope I do, because I had an amazing time. I'm going to wear the outfit or thing that JPC got me for Christmas. That's like the moss ghillie suit. And I'm gonna be like Bobby Bedoink or something.

[Adol]

Aaron, I. Bobby Bedoink. I will say I didn't have a lot of costume pieces in the clothes that I brought to Joker, but the one thing that I did bring that I got several compliments about was I went to Target, like, maybe the week before, and they were having some, like, Valentine's Day stuff, like shirts that were on sale. And so I got a Valentine's Day SpongeBob shirt, which was SpongeBob and Patrick with, like, a big heart on it. And then I cut off the sleeves of the T shirt and made it into a tank top. And I had several people come up to me and be like, oh, I love that shirt. And there was. There was one point where we were in. Mariah and I were in one of the port stops, St. Martin, I think it was, and we were talking to some people that recognized us and they were coming to see the hey, Riverdale show or whatever, and I was saying hello to them. And then someone who worked at the bar at St. Martin came out of the bar and was like, hey, where did you get that shirt? And I said, oh, I got it at a Target. And they went, Target. And then they, like, kind of like, they kind of like, were dejected a little and then went inside and I was like, oh, yeah, I just told someone who probably lives on St. Martin that I got it from a store that they will never have on this island. Like, there will never be a Target on this island for 20,000 people.

[Aaron Keefe]

And I'm protesting Target, and we all should start doing that as well. They stopped doing that.

[Adol]

Because they sell such good shirts.

[Aaron Keefe]

Because they sell such good shirts.

[JPC]

The bigger question, are we protesting riddles?

[Aaron Keefe]

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm going. I'm going. I'm going. I'm going, I'm going. But Bobby Bedoink and Beverly Shubadoo are gonna be having fun. And jpc, you can go to hell.

[JPC]

With your no costumes and jpc. And I said, if we go on another Joker, we're going to get fucking ripped. We're Going to get shredded.

[Adol]

Yeah, Drunk, right? Is that what we meant?

[JPC]

Drunk? Duh.

[Aaron Keefe]

Okay, we are back with these scientist riddles. That might be from Mali.

[Adol]

We don't know. We can't know.

[Aaron Keefe]

Might be from Molly. Molly from San Francisco, works in the wine business. Super nice. Here we go.

[JPC]

Why is that a disclaimer?

[Aaron Keefe]

It's a disclaimer illegally. We have to do it just in case. What happened when the mad scientist fell into the lens grinding machine?

[Adol]

Oh, I hate these.

[JPC]

That's just like 2020 vision. Joker. Or what's like.

[Aaron Keefe]

Huh?

[JPC]

You know, like Joker fell into a vatic. Chemicals became regular Joker. This is like a. Yeah.

[Adol]

What was the name of the chemical plant that he fell into? It wasn't acme. That's like Looney Tins.

[JPC]

What was it? Probably Wayne Enterprises.

[Adol]

It doesn't matter.

[JPC]

What did the mad scientist say when he fell into the lens crafting machine?

[Aaron Keefe]

Grinding machine.

[Adol]

You said lens grinding machine. And I know that that is a thing, but do you guys know what the fuck a lens grinding machine is?

[Aaron Keefe]

No. I was sort of hoping you guys would shed some light on that.

[Adol]

I truly know that I've heard that before, but I can't really conceptualize why you would need to grind a bunch of lenses.

[JPC]

Is this like a. Is this a pun answer?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, yeah. Let me assume. Let me. What about what happened when the mad scientist flashed all of his colleagues?

[JPC]

Was this post falling into the lens grinding machine?

[Aaron Keefe]

Forget the lens grinding machine, okay?

[JPC]

Because I think they'd all be like, oh, my God, are you okay?

[Adol]

Is this. Is this the same answer, Aaron? It's just a different answer.

[Aaron Keefe]

This is the same answer.

[Adol]

So we have Lynn's grinding machine falling into. And we have.

[Aaron Keefe]

You don't need that. You don't need that anymore, okay? Because that's not going to help. I feel like the answer lines up.

[JPC]

More with, okay, what did the mad scientist say when he flashed his friends? What was it?

[Adol]

His colleagues.

[Aaron Keefe]

His colleagues. All right. What happened when the mad scientist got up on a table and started singing at a wedding?

[Adol]

Okay, so it has nothing to do with his penis? Cause the second one, I was like, obviously they're gonna be upset.

[Aaron Keefe]

Everything has to do with someone's penis. If people got a penis, they make it out. Everything they do.

[Adol]

He got up on a table, okay? So he embarrassed himself. Is this him embarrassing himself?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, but what's a way of saying that he. That is that. But that. I guess actually the lens grinding thing is important, huh? For this part of it.

[JPC]

He saw.

[Adol]

He saw himself.

[JPC]

He Saw who he was a different sight.

[Aaron Keefe]

What's a kind of glasses?

[JPC]

Hindsight was 20 20. Bifocals, trifocals, quad focals, sunglasses.

[Adol]

Oh, they were reading him and then I snapped my neck.

[Aaron Keefe]

Oh, he made a spectacle of himself.

[Adol]

He made a spectacle of himself.

[Aaron Keefe]

I'd like to see a scene. Adol, you are at the eye doctor getting an eye test done. Jbc, you are the eye doctor and you're really bad at your job.

[JPC]

Sorry. Should I sit in the chair?

[Adol]

I was gonna sit in the chair. Oh, you mean the chair? Yeah.

[Aaron Keefe]

No.

[Adol]

Yes.

[JPC]

I didn't know if this was a test, if it was like, can he see? Where does it.

[Adol]

No, no. Yeah, I forgot about, I forgot about the. Yeah, I forgot about that chair. Cause I wanted to sit in my chair.

[JPC]

Is Dr. Moray on vacation or.

[Adol]

Yes, he is. Well, it's his honeymoon. Yeah, he likes to say that this weekend. He's Dr. Amore.

[JPC]

Oh.

[Adol]

Cause his name is Dr. Moray. And don't tell him I said that because he told me not to say that when he went away.

[JPC]

I'm not gonna promise not to tell him something. We're very good friends.

[Adol]

Okay, well, yeah, but he's not great friends because he didn't know get married. He is on his honeymoon. Yeah. This, this whole, like this weekend through the next week. So I'm, Yeah. Oh.

[JPC]

Oh, my God. You just blew in my eyes so hard.

[Adol]

Oh, no.

[JPC]

Is there like a machine that's supposed to do that? You just, as you're talking, you just kind of.

[Adol]

Yeah, sorry. I, I, I got so close because I was starting the eye exam, but while we were just having a casual conversation and I have a, it's a medical condition, actually, where I have to exhale sharply.

[JPC]

Oh, yeah.

[Adol]

So I'm sorry, Sit in the chair. Do you have any preferences or any allergies that I should know about?

[JPC]

I'm allergic to pollen and A1 steak sauce preferences. I mean, I don't want you to blow in my eye again, but other than that. Okay, well, willing to play ball.

[Adol]

I will have to blow in your eye a couple more times for medical reasons. For the test.

[JPC]

That's it.

[Adol]

Just said, well, yeah, but you can't go to, like, you can't go to a dentist and say, like, I have a thing where, like, I don't want you to touch my teeth. They can't help you if, if they do that. You know, I have to blow in your eye because that's how I see, like, how I have to test your reaction speed. And stuff?

[JPC]

You're not gonna touch my eye or anything, right? You're not gonna, like, try and yank that. Yank that bad boy out of there, right?

[Adol]

What?

[JPC]

You're not gonna try and, like, take my eyeball out of my head or something, right? You just have. You just have.

[Adol]

No, I don't need to take your eyeball out of your head. Can you pop them out, like, far? No, like the woman from Ripley's.

[JPC]

We all know the woman from Ripley's.

[Adol]

The woman who could pop them out really far.

[JPC]

Yes. Every time I close my eyes, I see her face. How far?

[Adol]

How far can you get them? I'll just touch. I won't touch them. I'll wear gloves. I'll wear gloves tomorrow. Starting tomorrow. Tonight I'm going to get gloves and tomorrow I'll start wearing gloves so that you're. And I wash my hands so your eyes will be the last eyes I touch and so you don't have to worry about cross contamination or anything like that.

[JPC]

Oh, this is like A Clockwork Orange machine, no?

[Adol]

What? Yeah, no, it's like a Clockwork Orange machine, no. That movie had a lot of really inappropriate stuff in it that we won't be doing in the office. So I really resent that. I really resent that.

[JPC]

Why are you dressed like a Moog, or whatever they're called?

[Adol]

It is a Moog, and this is technically a Halloween costume because I went to the store this morning, the spirit Halloween store, this morning, to buy a doctor costume. And this one just starts. It caught my eye, and so I. It caught my eye. Kind of what I'm doing to you. Help. Help.

[Aaron Keefe]

No.

[Adol]

Help.

[Aaron Keefe]

Hey.

[Adol]

Hey. Please don't tell Dr. Mouret. Please don't talk to. I just wanted to do a good job while he was gone. Technically, I'm only supposed to be answering phones and saying, the office is closed.

[Aaron Keefe]

See? Yay.

[JPC]

Optometristness.

[Casey]

That's hard to do.

[Adol]

Optometrist and stewardess.

[JPC]

Optometristness.

[Aaron Keefe]

What book tells you about the different kinds of owls?

[JPC]

Encyclopedia.

[Aaron Keefe]

That's a great answer.

[JPC]

That's powerless. Okay, the Bible.

[Aaron Keefe]

The Bible. The Bible.

[Adol]

It's kind of trump a little trump. The Bible.

[Aaron Keefe]

What book tells you about the different kinds of owls?

[Adol]

Alcipedia. Owl. Is the word owl in the answer, Aaron?

[Aaron Keefe]

No.

[Adol]

Is it like. Do I have to know the technical name for the owl? Like the phylus genome? Kindof.

[Aaron Keefe]

That's definitely close, though. I'm sure.

[JPC]

Is this another pun? But it's like something to do with feathers or something. Any bird would have. Or specifically owls.

[Aaron Keefe]

Owls. They're famous for something.

[Adol]

Oh, they say who?

[JPC]

Hookapedia.

[Adol]

Hookapedia.

[JPC]

No, encyclohoopedia.

[Aaron Keefe]

About all the different owls.

[JPC]

Who.

[Adol]

All the different owls. So who is not correct.

[Aaron Keefe]

Or it is, but you're missing.

[Adol]

Would this be like a who's who?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yes.

[Adol]

Ooh.

[JPC]

Who's who is a book. I guess.

[Aaron Keefe]

I guess I'd like to see a scene. We're three owls, and we're sitting in a tree, and we're sort of gossiping about other owls.

[JPC]

Who? Who?

[Adol]

Who? Who?

[Aaron Keefe]

Who?

[JPC]

Who? Who? Who? Who?

[Aaron Keefe]

I shouldn't say.

[JPC]

Who slept with Mark? Who? Who?

[Aaron Keefe]

I shouldn't say. Guys, let's just focus. I'm killing little mice, okay? So let's just sort of, like, focus, okay?

[JPC]

Okay. Okay. Okay. In the barn. That's gross.

[Adol]

I didn't hear barn owl.

[JPC]

Yeah. Mark's not even a barn owl. Was our one.

[Adol]

Is it Mark? Is it Mark? Was it Mark?

[JPC]

Who? Who? Who?

[Aaron Keefe]

What is your question?

[JPC]

Who slept with Mark? Was it Mark?

[Adol]

Oh, I forgot. We were trying to guess who slept with Mark. And we were guessing.

[JPC]

That could have been other Mark. It could have been other Mark.

[Adol]

Who?

[JPC]

Who?

[Aaron Keefe]

Which other Mark is a cow.

[Adol]

You never said Mark slept with another owl. And it was in a barn. And it was in a barn. Okay, who else goes in the barn? Cats go in barns.

[JPC]

Cats go in barns.

[Adol]

Who?

[JPC]

Farmers. Farmers.

[Adol]

Farmers.

[Aaron Keefe]

All I'm saying is that you already have all the information that you need. But also, I'm not a gossip.

[Adol]

Was it Farmer John? Was it Farmer John? Or his stewardess wife?

[Aaron Keefe]

I never said that. It was not group sex.

[Adol]

Wait a second. Wait a second. Wait a second. Dan, I think it was Marcy. I think Marcy was sloppy. Cause Marcy never said how she knew that it happened.

[JPC]

Wow. She's turning her head. She's turning her head 360 degrees.

[Adol]

I think she's trying to. I think she might be trying to snap her own neck.

[Aaron Keefe]

Trying to snap my own neck. And I want you to know I slept with Mark and Mark.

[Adol]

Ooh.

[JPC]

The one thing an owl can't do.

[Aaron Keefe]

See, before you guys realize that two owls had a threesome with a cow, let's move on to another riddle.

[JPC]

Whoa. Moo hoo hoo. That's called a moohoo. Hoo.

[Adol]

Oh, wow. Hoo.

[Aaron Keefe]

Moo. Moo.

[Adol]

No, a moohoo who is also Yoo hoo. Milkshake. Could that be a thing?

[Aaron Keefe]

A hoo hoo milkshake.

[Adol]

Yeah. Yoo hoo. With a milkshake. Might be pretty good, actually.

[JPC]

I had Nestle.

[Adol]

I'm gonna have to call my milkshake guy.

[JPC]

A little go diner. Delicious.

[Aaron Keefe]

Why does the mad scientist count his money with his toes?

[JPC]

I mean, he's a master.

[Adol]

Because he's got his finger in the electric socket of the Frankenstein's monster.

[JPC]

Is it that Aaron Frankenstein's monster should have, like, an outlet on him, right? Nowadays he has some.

[Aaron Keefe]

Like us.

[Adol]

Wait, so is he generating the energy or is it. Does he have, like a plug, like a power cord?

[Aaron Keefe]

He has, like, one of, like. He has a thing for, like, your Apple. Watch. Your headphones.

[JPC]

Yes. Your AirPods adapters.

[Adol]

Thumb drive, like a micro USB C3 or whatever.

[JPC]

Yes.

[Adol]

Maybe. Maybe he has, like a. Like a charging port, like an EV would have, you know, that you have. You need to have that, like, special sort of charger. Yeah, I do want to see.

[JPC]

Mostly he gets hit by lightning, and that's probably power.

[Adol]

I want to see a scene. Aaron, you are driving your ev. You're at one of those charging stations at the mall or whatever, and you're pulling up, but all the spots are taken. And the only person that you can see There is Adol. Adol. You are Dr. Frankenstein, and you are charging your monster. And the EV slot and JPC will.

[Aaron Keefe]

Unbelievable. Oh, my God. Hey. Excuse me.

[Aaron Keefe]

Sorry. How much longer are you gonna be? I'm just trying to figure out who I can pull up behind, who's gonna be quick.

[JPC]

I'm in a bit of a rush.

[Adol]

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, of course. I'm wearing them now.

[Adol]

[JPC]

I made a man from dead parts, and I put wheelies in him and his hands and feet, and then I sort. I can sort of drive him around.

[Aaron Keefe]

Huh.

[JPC]

He's at 40%, to answer your question. Good day. Sorry. Frankie, wait.

[Aaron Keefe]

Did I see you on the news?

[JPC]

I don't know. Was I walking behind a reporter during a flood or something? What do you want from Me?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, definitely. That I'm sure.

[JPC]

Or was it me digging up bodies from a grave?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, I think it was you. Digging up bodies from a grave while.

[JPC]

A bunch of high schoolers kicked me in the balls.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, well, a bunch of high schoolers kicked you in the balls. There's a pretty high reward for someone who finds you, huh?

[JPC]

Frankie? What do we do with people who snitch? What do snitches get?

[Adol]

Charge.

[JPC]

No, we don't charge.

[Adol]

Battery.

[Aaron Keefe]

Frankie's only at 40.

[Adol]

Run.

[JPC]

That's right. They're high schools.

[Aaron Keefe]

Mad. See? And keep in mind that this book is from the past. And so everything seems a little timey and off.

[Adol]

Aaron, can I blow your mind?

[Aaron Keefe]

Every book's from the past. Every book's from the past, Aaron.

[Adol]

Every book's from the past, Aaron. Holy shit. She just blew my mind.

[JPC]

Who's this witch that just came in?

[Adol]

She just blew my mind. I thought I was gonna blow hers and she blew mine. The fuck?

[JPC]

Every book's from the past.

[Aaron Keefe]

Every book's from the past.

[JPC]

Why? Why? Did the mad scientist count his money with his toes?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah.

[Adol]

Aaron, that's a character called the Lysgarian.

[JPC]

Oh, is this something to do with, like, tender flesh?

[Adol]

To give you a hint. Oh, that's a hint.

[Aaron Keefe]

It's an ABBA song.

[Adol]

Dancing queen. Mamma mia. Mamma Mia.

[JPC]

Too.

[Aaron Keefe]

So it won't slip through his fingers. Slipping through my fingers all the time.

[Adol]

That's an ABBA song. That can't even be a top 10 ABBA song.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, it's pretty famous.

[Adol]

Well, pretty famous. This is a band that only has bangers.

[Aaron Keefe]

I'd like to see a seed.

[Adol]

Oh, boy.

[Aaron Keefe]

Adol, you are a banker. Jpc. You're trying to open a bank account because your money is running out really fast and you're trying to keep it safe.

[Adol]

Okay. Hey, excuse me. How long does it take to open up a bank account? Yeah, I'm sorry. I'll go to the back of the line. I just have one question. How long does it take to open up a bank account?

[Aaron Keefe]

You can't cut in line.

[Adol]

I'm not cutting in line. I'm not doing any transactions. I'm asking one question. I'm sorry. How long to open a bank account? If I had to open one today, how long would it Take?

[JPC]

Well, it depends on what type of account you're opening.

[Adol]

Checking. Just checking. Checking. Banking. FDIC checking. I just want to make sure it's insured.

[JPC]

Okay. And what would be your deposit today?

[Adol]

Today? It depends on how long it's going to take. Like right now I'm trying to do a withdrawal. I.

[Aaron Keefe]

We all want to be somewhere right now.

[Adol]

Do you have a question? Because I just have one question, so if anyone is in this line for questions.

[Aaron Keefe]

We all have questions. That's why we're in line and not at the atm.

[Adol]

Sir, what's your question? What's your question? Hold on, hold on. What's your question, ma'am? What's your question?

[Aaron Keefe]

I can't. Mine is personal. I don't want to shout it across the bank.

[Adol]

Well, if we're not going to be free with our questions, you could just be a liar who doesn't have a question. And now I can see you're taking extra time to think of what your question would be.

[Aaron Keefe]

No.

[Adol]

Is your question like, can I do a withdrawal? Because the answer is always gonna be yes. I can tell it's gonna be yes. I have one question. Just to ask the question. Hey, can you make it faster? Because they were getting really mad at me, and I really just want to ask, like, how long does it take to open? Like a standard. Typical. Just everybody gets the same account. Like a basic account.

[JPC]

Okay, let's sit down here.

[Aaron Keefe]

I want. They're sitting. They're sitting.

[Adol]

That's not on me. I only asked the one question.

[Aaron Keefe]

You cut in line. If there is an actionable thing that needs to be done, you need to wait in line.

[Adol]

Okay. You seem like you are very mad at me. No one else in this line. No one else in this line is making a stink. Could it be they are.

[Aaron Keefe]

They're all making a stink?

[Adol]

No, but they stink. They stink, but they're not saying anything.

[JPC]

Everyone, everyone, please. Everyone, please. Banker does a frontward roll and drops his cane. Ha ha. Today is the day that I choose one of you to take over my bank.

[Aaron Keefe]

Okay, he seems really hurt. He seems really hurt.

[JPC]

Come with me, fdic.

[Adol]

His leg is impaled by the cane scene. Hold on. Wait. Did he say, come with me, fdic? That.

[JPC]

Yeah, it was a Willy Wonka situation, but instead of a candy factory, it was a bank factory.

[Adol]

A bank factory. Money printer.

[Aaron Keefe]

Why did the mad scientist shoot his car?

[JPC]

Aaron, at this point, this guy is.

[Adol]

He was gassed off.

[JPC]

This guy is not able to be penetrated mentally.

[Adol]

Yeah, I mean, we're getting like farther into the mad and farther away from the scientist. You know what I'm saying?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah.

[JPC]

Aaron, hit me with that question one more time.

[Aaron Keefe]

Why did the mad scientist shoot his car? It's sort of.

[JPC]

Oh, oh, oh. Cause it was leaded.

[Adol]

It took unleaded.

[Aaron Keefe]

No, that's way smarter than this.

[Adol]

Adol and I both had a brainstorm where we got to lead as it bullets at the same time.

[Aaron Keefe]

I haven't heard anyone use this phrase that's in the answer in a minute. But it feels like something like a dad would say when he wants you to turn off the car.

[JPC]

We're not heating the neighborhood. We're not gassing the neighborhood.

[Adol]

We're talking about the electric company.

[Aaron Keefe]

It's a simple. Why would you shoot something because it bumped into the.

[Adol]

Otherwise they want money.

[Aaron Keefe]

No, something. What's the mean? Like what end result are you hoping when you shoot someone?

[JPC]

Kill it.

[Adol]

Kill the engine. Kill the engine anymore?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, kill the motor.

[JPC]

This is a what's her name, Amelia Bedelia situation.

[Aaron Keefe]

Exactly.

[Adol]

So this mad scientist is straight up fucking stupid dude.

[Aaron Keefe]

Right?

[JPC]

I do want to see a scene.

[Aaron Keefe]

Oh, I wanted to see a scene.

[JPC]

May I call one please? Aaron, I want to see a scene. You're at a concert. Jpc. And you're a human woman and jpc, you're a car at the concert. And Aaron, you're kind of really getting annoyed with this car to where you might start a fight.

[Aaron Keefe]

Cool.

[Adol]

The car turns on its brights when everyone is like putting their flashlights up and their. Their lighters.

[Aaron Keefe]

Ah, God. Hey, sorry, sorry. That's just really bright. It's like changing the lighting of.

[Adol]

I bought a ticket. Everybody here bought a ticket.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, that's true. Everyone here bought a ticket. So we all spent money and sort of. We shouldn't prioritize one person's experience. Branch over everyone.

[Adol]

Oh, person. Okay. Have a nice day. Have a nice life. Now we see how narrow minded you are, person.

[Aaron Keefe]

This car is so drunk. What do I do?

[JPC]

This next song is called Yellow.

[Adol]

I know all the words to this one. Honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk.

[Aaron Keefe]

Honk, honk, honk, honk. Hey, I know all the words too. And they're actually, actually not honk. They're hey, what? Your ski. Oh yeah, your skitter Bo. So that's actually what the words are. It's honk, honking.

[Adol]

How about you take your hand off my bumper? Okay.

[Aaron Keefe]

Oh, sorry.

[Adol]

Apology.

[Aaron Keefe]

Not Accepting your bumper sticker says, touch my ass.

[Adol]

Did someone says, oh, my God. Did someone put a touch my ass bumper sticker on me? This sucks.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, because you're a real jerk.

[Adol]

You know, I think it's because my ex is here.

[Aaron Keefe]

Okay, that sounds like your business.

[Adol]

I think my ex is here, and I think he was playing a prank on me.

[Aaron Keefe]

Okay, that's not my problem, man.

[Adol]

You're right. It's not my problem. You're just the creep who touched my ass.

[Aaron Keefe]

Okay, I'm sorry. Your car. Your car.

[JPC]

Now's the point of the show where I, Chris Martin, will bring up one lucky fan in the first 20 rows to sing with me.

[Adol]

A 40 rows back. Uh, drive. Honk, honk, honk.

[Aaron Keefe]

Hey, pick me, pick me, pick me.

[JPC]

You there, little lady?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yes.

[JPC]

Who's like a 1987 Toyota Tercel.

[Adol]

That's me.

[Aaron Keefe]

The car sings fix you on stage.

[Adol]

Everyone cries, Honk, honk, honk, honk.

[JPC]

The only thing worse than going to a Coldplay concert is going to a Coldplay concert, and they make a car sing. Oh, now I want. I want, like, a fake Coldplay tour shirt. But it's all. It's like a bunch of cars with microphones. People are like, is that Coldplay?

[Adol]

All right. Hey.

[Aaron Keefe]

All right, two more riddles.

[Adol]

No, no, we gotta go. We gotta go. Aaron, we have to take a little break. Yeah, sorry, Aaron. No riddles, only break. Aaron looks so disappointed.

[JPC]

I'll break. I'll break. No gas.

[Adol]

All right, we'll be right back after this brief Honk, honk, honk.

[Aaron Keefe]

Jpc. If you'll excuse me, I'm just going to vacuum right under you. I'm cleaning this whole place up. New year, new me.

[Adol]

Aaron, you're vacuuming the podcast? What's going on here?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yes, I'm getting my whole life together. And it started with my financial health when I downloaded Rocket Money.

[Adol]

Oh, Rocket Money. The personal finance app that helps find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions, monitors your spending, and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings. That Rocket Money.

[Aaron Keefe]

Mm. See, I kept signing up for stuff and then forgetting what I signed up for, and I was wasting so much money. But with Rocket Money, I can see all my subscriptions in one place and know exactly where my money is going. And for the ones I don't use anymore, Rocket Money can help me cancel them.

[Adol]

Okay, be careful with that vacuum, Aaron, because all of my clothes are breakaway clothes. So truly, vacuums are my nightmare. One misplace suck could kind of end me. Casey, don't clip that.

[Aaron Keefe]

All right, I'll vacuum by Adolf's feet. Excuse me, Adolph.

[Adol]

Whoa.

[JPC]

My shoes.

[Aaron Keefe]

Sorry.

[JPC]

Well, I guess I'll have to buy a new pair, which means I have to save money, which means I need Rocket Money. Because Rocket Money will even try and negotiate lower bills for you. They automatically scan your bills to find opportunities to save. Then you can ask them to negotiate for you. They'll deal with customer service so you don't have to.

[Adol]

Yeah. And Rocket Money has over 5 million users and has saved a total of 500 million in canceled subscriptions, saving members up to $740 a year. When using all of the app's premium features, do you much breakaway clothes you can buy for $740 a year?

[Aaron Keefe]

I don't.

[Adol]

Well, it's not a lot because they don't really sell them much. So you have to kind of make a lot of it custom. And there they go. And there they go.

[Aaron Keefe]

We don't have time. Got in right under the wire, huh? Well, guys, flops down onto couch. We're well into 2025 now, which means New Year's resolutions are starting to become New Year's compromises. And I wanted to eat healthier and with stuff with more nutrition and I really am dropping the ball here.

[Adol]

Aaron, you're soaking wet. This couch is ruined. What? What is going on? You can't just come in from a pool and sit down on a couch.

[Aaron Keefe]

You know what? I should try Tempo.

[JPC]

Yes, Aaron, I've been telling you. Tempo is a weekly delivery service that delivers chef crafted meals from a dietitian approved menu. Fresh to your door. I tried this recently, Aaron, and it was, to use a word, Scrumptious. The sweet chili meatballs. Delectable. The sweet and tangy chicken. Scrumptious. The spicy chimichurri sliced steak. One of the better things I've eaten this year.

[Adol]

How do you dry a couch? Like do I put it outside of the sun?

[Aaron Keefe]

And this couch is like soaking wet. You should get that fixed. Tempo offers a variety of meals for different dietary and taste preferences, including protein packed, calorie conscious, carb conscious, and fiber rich.

[Adol]

Well, Tempo also has perfectly proportioned lunches and dinners that take the guesswork out of eating well are fully prepared and can be heated in the microwave in just three minutes. I wonder how long I have to microwave a couch to get the pool water out of it.

I thought that you guys might want a little refresher. I got you some of these drinks there. A half beer, half lemonade. So kind of like a refreshing, refreshing drink.

[JPC]

Oh, like a summer shandy.

[Adol]

Yeah. Open it up. And there's no trick to it either. It's liquid in here, even if it doesn't feel like liquid.

[Aaron Keefe]

Feels not like liquid.

[JPC]

Pretty heavy. It feels like it's maybe like 182. Like 182 pounds.

[Aaron Keefe]

It's like one human man.

[Adol]

Hold on.

[JPC]

Oh my God.

[Aaron Keefe]

Aaron.

[JPC]

Much better.

[Adol]

Guess I wanted to say yes. Very smart. To be non specific, I wanted to buy shandy and looks like I bought Sandy.

[JPC]

Hey guys, we're drinking summer Sandy.

[Casey]

Sandy 182. This zoom camera's doing me a lot of favors.

[Adol]

Yeah, maybe 182. Just beard. Look at that thing.

[Casey]

A lot of beer fed this beard.

[Aaron Keefe]

It's pretty majestic.

[Adol]

Yeah, it's really nice.

[Casey]

You know, I remember being on holiday, I don't remember exactly where. A long time ago. And I saw my name on the menu at a bar. And I was like, what the heck am I, a drink now? But it was. It was a shandy, but they spelled it Sandy. In some parts of the world, I think they say Sandy.

[JPC]

Well, they also make. I know, like Leingkugel does a summer shandy. And also a Berry Weiss. And if you do a little portmanteau, that's a Sandy Weiss.

[Adol]

A Sandy Weiss.

[Aaron Keefe]

Adel, you're feeling sharp this morning. You're sort of on top of it.

[Adol]

Well, Sandy, we can't really bullshit around with you all day about beer and your name and stuff, because I heard a little birdie told me, Turdy, turdy, turdy.

[Aaron Keefe]

Everyone jumped on the bird so fast.

[JPC]

Look at the man who messed up. Daddy.

[Aaron Keefe]

Daddy would be the man who messed up.

[Adol]

It was a little Turdy. And actually, it's problematic of you to call him out on being a little turd, that you got some riddles and puzzles and stuff for us?

[Casey]

Oh, yeah, that's what I'm here for. It's very astute of you to notice that every time I'm here, I'm peppering you with questions and you seem to invite me back.

[Adol]

I'd like to take credit for it, but it has to go to the little Turdy.

[Casey]

Oh, God, the little turdi.

[Aaron Keefe]

Told you.

[Casey]

Okay, Yeah. I have some riddles for you today, and I hope this doesn't scare you all away too much, but I think in the history of doing these sandboxes, we have not come close to doing one that was about sports. But since it's the middle of March.

[Adol]

All right, Sandy, that is all the time we have. Thank you so much.

[Casey]

Don't worry. This wouldn't be good for me either. However, I will say you need to know just the names of professional sports teams. Just their names, not even athletes.

[Adol]

All right, Sandy. And thanks for coming on. Anything to plug or promote before.

[Casey]

They'll be fine. You've heard of sports?

[Adol]

Yes, I've heard of sports. Aaron, how confident do you feel?

[Aaron Keefe]

I'm leaning back in my chair, scrolling through my phone, completely checked out, knowing I will not be helpful in this.

[Casey]

You will be fine. So this is a game about sports teams? North American professional sports teams. I'm only doing the big leagues. Football, baseball, basketball, men's and women's hockey. And then I think I have one soccer team. I am skipping your more niche sports, like pro, ultimate, Frisbee names, pro rodeo team names. I know you guys are probably sad to hear that I'm skipping those, but I feel like Those are not as well known.

[JPC]

Sandy, not to. I don't want to nitpick, but it's called Proteo. As a member of the Proteo, it's not called pro rodeo.

[Casey]

Yeah. And you being from.

[JPC]

Careful.

[Casey]

Downstate. Downstate Illinois. Is that safe to say?

[Adol]

Whoa.

[JPC]

Central Illinois.

[Casey]

See, there is not a Downstate Illinois. There's not a rodeo team from Illinois. But the Missouri has a. The Missouri has the Thunder. Florida has the Freedom. The Florida Freedom Rodeo Team. Anyway, we won't be talking about those. We will be talking about each other.

[Adol]

What does a rodeo team play like? Don't they. They're trying to beat their top score. It doesn't matter. We can't get into this. This is gonna be the whole episode.

[Casey]

I hope that this one team acts like the bulls.

[Adol]

Yes.

[Casey]

And runs around and the other team has to rope them. I don't know, though. I have been to a rodeo, and it was my first rodeo, and I asked a lot of questions.

[Adol]

Appropriately, I've also been to one rodeo. So I can say if I ever go to a second rodeo that it's not my first rodeo.

[JPC]

Yeah.

[Casey]

So for this game, I'm going to be asking you a question about a different kind of competition. And you have to tell me which two professional sports teams would be the best at competing in that competition. But you just have to think about their names laterally. For almost all of these, I think they are two teams from different sports. I'll tell you if that's not the case, and if you guys get stuck, I'll give you clues, like what sports they play. So, for example.

[Adol]

Okay.

[Casey]

Yeah, go ahead.

[Adol]

I was going to ask if any of these answers are defunct hockey teams. Because ADOL is going to have the absolute edge.

[Casey]

Oh, that hat. Right.

[Adol]

Is that your Nordiques?

[JPC]

Right, The Nordiques, baby. Nordiques.

[Casey]

No, I didn't look up that list. Nor will it be defunct or former baseball teams, of which there was a lot of those.

[Adol]

Okay. Only currents.

[Casey]

Only currents.

[JPC]

The Oklahoma City bombings.

[Aaron Keefe]

Oh, God.

[Adol]

Default, Aaron. Defeat.

[Aaron Keefe]

They have a team.

[Casey]

They have a team. I'm not gonna tell you what it is because it might come up. But, yeah, Oklahoma City's in here. Anyway, so an example. If I said which two professional North American sports teams might compete in a Pokemon competition? Or you could say American Politics. You'd say the Cincinnati Reds and the St. Louis Blues. Because Pokemon Red and Blue is a game. And Reds and Blues. Right. So we're looking for two complementary team names. Yep. So if I said which two teams would Be good at a competition for spell casting.

[JPC]

Ooh, The Washington Wizards.

[Casey]

That would be one.

[Aaron Keefe]

And New Orleans St. Louis witches.

[Casey]

I'm gonna look up if there is any witches. There should be.

[Adol]

So, yeah, The Wizards is basketball, Correct? Adol.

[JPC]

Mm.

[Adol]

Okay. Yeah.

[Casey]

The other one is also basketball. This is one where the two play the same.

[JPC]

Oh, they were Orlando Magic. Magic is what I'm looking for. Yes, of course I thought of magic, but then I was like, oh, you said there wouldn't be magic.

[Casey]

Yeah, this is my. And then I used this as my first example. Okay, well, sorry about that. How about meteorology? A competition about meteorology. There's three, actually.

[JPC]

Okay.

[Adol]

This could be the third.

[Aaron Keefe]

The Portland Clouds.

[Casey]

The Thunder is one. The Portland Clouds is so much better than the Trailblazers.

[JPC]

Just an emo basketball team.

[Adol]

Is there a hurricane? There has to be a hurricanes in Florida, right?

[JPC]

There is.

[Casey]

Oh, yeah, there's the hurricanes. That's a fourth one that I didn't think of.

[Adol]

Yes.

[Aaron Keefe]

Lightning.

[Casey]

Lightning is one.

[JPC]

Tampa Bay.

[Casey]

Tampa Bay. And then there's a women's basketball team.

[JPC]

The sky is Indiana Fever. Is fever something we can forecast?

[Adol]

Yeah.

[Casey]

No.

[JPC]

Okay.

[Adol]

It has to do with temperature, though.

[Casey]

It is the women's National Basketball association team in Seattle. It is the storm. Good job.

[Aaron Keefe]

Wow.

[Casey]

Which two teams would be good at a competition for leading mass?

[Aaron Keefe]

The Boston Priests, obviously.

[JPC]

And, oh, the Atlanta. Get your shirt on. We're going to church.

[Adol]

Who would lead a mask?

[Aaron Keefe]

They would have my full support. I would buy every piece of merch from that.

[JPC]

The mascot is just a mom dragging a kid by their arm.

[Adol]

Yeah.

[Aaron Keefe]

We'Re making that merch. I'm so sorry. I'm the only one who's gonna buy it, and I know that, but we're making it.

[Adol]

Popes. Is there a Popes? No, that would be insane.

[Casey]

The Vatican City Popes. The Vatican City Pope I sent. But I did say only North American teams.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, Reverend.

[JPC]

So lead.

[Casey]

I'll give you a hint. One of these teams is actually in two different cities in two different leagues. It's the same, you know, team name.

[JPC]

Giants.

[Casey]

Well, no.

[Adol]

But that might be true, what Adel said.

[Aaron Keefe]

Can you read it again?

[Casey]

Leading Mass. Like a Catholic Mass?

[Adol]

Like a Catholic mass. Preacher. Bishop. Bishop. Bishop. A Cardinal.

[Aaron Keefe]

Cardinals. St. Louis Cardinals.

[Casey]

Cardinals or Arizona Cardinals? Correct. And then we're looking for a baseball team.

[JPC]

Baseball team.

[Adol]

Mass. It's got to be, like, another bird that has, like, a church name.

[Casey]

No, it's not.

[JPC]

Oh, it's not a bird.

[Casey]

It quite literally means a religious leader.

[JPC]

Whoa.

[Adol]

Oh.

[JPC]

Okay.

[Aaron Keefe]

God, deity, the Fort Lauderdale cult leaders.

[Casey]

Think west coast baseball on the West Coast.

[Aaron Keefe]

West Coast.

[Casey]

Padres is hot.

[JPC]

Padres, yes. Forgive me, Padre, for I have sinned.

[Casey]

I struck that man out. How about competing in relaxing in a Jacuzzi? A competition that I would excel at.

[JPC]

The Minneapolis cold sores.

[Adol]

Cold sores in the Jacuzzi.

[Casey]

What?

[JPC]

The North Carolina HPVs.

[Adol]

Hey, Sandy, maybe you won't be relaxing so much in the Jacuzzi next time when you know about all the cold sores and HPVS in there.

[Casey]

I put a lot of chlorine in the fever. No.

[JPC]

Relaxing enough.

[Adol]

Yeah, I guess if you're staying in it too long.

[JPC]

Oh, the Jets.

[Casey]

The jets is one. New York Jets. And then basketball.

[Aaron Keefe]

The San Francisco Bubbles.

[Adol]

Welcome. You're starting lineup for the San Francisco Bubbles. And they're gone. They're gone.

[JPC]

Help coach.

[Adol]

Help Coach.

[Casey]

Oh, gosh.

[JPC]

Crunch. Crunch. Crunch.

[Casey]

I'm going to look up professional sports teams for blowing doubles, see if there are any. Anyway, it's not Jets. It is jets, but it's not. There's one more.

[JPC]

Okay, can you tell us what sport?

[Casey]

It's basketball.

[JPC]

Basketball.

[Casey]

East coast basketball.

[JPC]

The Heat. Miami.

[Casey]

The Heat.

[Aaron Keefe]

Of course.

[Adol]

Heat and Jets. Yeah.

[Casey]

What about a competition for who can pay the check the fastest?

[JPC]

Whoa. The Chargers.

[Casey]

Ooh, that's not what I was thinking, but that's a good one.

[JPC]

San Diego Chargers.

[Aaron Keefe]

Kansas City. First dates, Washington State.

[Adol]

Father in laws.

[Aaron Keefe]

Washington State. Father in laws. A state has one.

[Casey]

I gotta tell you, I did a. I did a. I did a project for a. For some minor league baseball teams recently, and the names that they have on the minor leagues of baseball are so good.

[JPC]

Incredible. They're incredible.

[Casey]

They're incredible. There's my favorite is the Dash. Let's see. It is from Winston Salem, the Winston Salem Dash. And they're called the Dash because they have a dash in their name. Winston Dash Salem.

[JPC]

Okay.

[Casey]

Also, dash is speedy. There's Spartanburg. The Spartanburg Spartan Burgers.

[Adol]

What's the one? That's the Biscuit.

[JPC]

Oh, Montgomery.

[Adol]

It's like. Yeah, Montgomery Biscuits.

[JPC]

I think it's like a buttered biscuit is the mascot. And it's amazing.

[Adol]

I love that so much because they're so regional with those mascots.

[Casey]

Yes.

[Adol]

And one of the things that I thought was always a bummer. I played Little League for, like two years. I was not good. Or maybe I played longer and I was not good. But I remember vividly.

[Aaron Keefe]

You were like 25, right?

[Adol]

Yeah.

[JPC]

I was playing a little bit of League of Legends.

[Adol]

Yeah. I was Playing League of Legends. But all the names of the Little League teams were, like, the Pirates and the same. You know, they were just like professional baseball teams. And I was like, we can't have fun here and, like, come up with some, like, freaky, you know, like, biscuits and stuff like that. Like that. Yeah, I was. You can see where my head was at with playing baseball and how I didn't do very well at it.

[Casey]

Do you know what the Albuquerque Minor League team is?

[Aaron Keefe]

No.

[Adol]

Fuck. I used to know all of these.

[Casey]

So they're called the Isotopes because there's a lot of nuclear science going on down in New Mexico. But my question is, did it come before or after the Simpsons? Probably after.

[JPC]

It's probably a Mighty Duck situation.

[Adol]

Interesting.

[Casey]

Maybe. Yeah. Yeah, a Mighty Duck situation.

[Adol]

What are we doing right now, Sandy.

[JPC]

For the other team that's trying to pay the bill? I'm going to say the Santa Fe. Sweetie, could you run that again? Declined. Can you run it again?

[Aaron Keefe]

The Dallas. Excuse me?

[JPC]

Dallas.

[Adol]

Honestly, Aaron, that's so apropos of Dallas, too.

[Aaron Keefe]

Oh, yeah, sorry. Dallas.

[JPC]

The Toronto. This will all be one bill and just bring it to me.

[Aaron Keefe]

The Portland. Can you split the check six ways?

[Adol]

The Indianapolis guys. Why don't we all just Venmo me?

[Casey]

We're looking for a word. We're looking for a word that means check and another word that means what you used to pay the check.

[Aaron Keefe]

Buffalo Bills.

[JPC]

It puts. And then in Milwaukee on the line, Bucks.

[Casey]

The Bucks.

[Adol]

Bills on the Bills.

[Casey]

Which could both, I guess, refer to money. How about the team that competes at working with Groot and Drax? There's three here.

[JPC]

This would be Guardians. The Guardians.

[Casey]

Guardians. Cleveland Guardians and the Galaxy. But there's one more.

[Adol]

Soccer. Yeah.

[JPC]

Louisiana. Galaxy.

[Adol]

Is it the Angels?

[Casey]

It is. Basketball. It is Someone specifically in that team of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

[Adol]

Oh, the Mantises.

[JPC]

The.

[Casey]

That's a good name, though, for a team.

[Adol]

Yeah.

[Aaron Keefe]

There's Chris Pratts.

[JPC]

The Houston Rockets. Raccoons.

[Casey]

That is right. Rocket Raccoons.

[Adol]

Wow.

[Casey]

All right. How about Scaring Dorothy? This is the one duo that is from the same city.

[JPC]

Is there a flying monkeys team?

[Adol]

Lions and monkeys. And bears. Lions and monkeys.

[JPC]

Tigers. Detroit Lions.

[Casey]

Detroit Lions. Detroit Tigers.

[Aaron Keefe]

That's a good one.

[Casey]

How about impersonating Arnold Schwarzenegger?

[Adol]

The Governors.

[JPC]

The Milwaukee Albex.

[Casey]

Well, there is a. Senators.

[Adol]

I was gonna say. I thought that that was Capitols and Senators.

[JPC]

Yeah.

[Adol]

Capital Senators.

[JPC]

Doing the best.

[Adol]

Practicing Barbarians. If there were barbarians, that would be a dope name for a team.

[Casey]

You're getting closer.

[JPC]

Okay. The San Diego Kindergarten Cops.

[Casey]

Yeah, just work through it.

[Adol]

Jacksonville Jingle all the ways. Okay. These are gonna be Schwarzenegger movies. Oh, twins. Twin City. No.

[Aaron Keefe]

Is that something?

[Casey]

That's right. Yeah.

[JPC]

Minnesota.

[Adol]

Okay.

[Casey]

And there's two more. Actually. One is dead on. One is a little bit of a generous.

[Adol]

Okay. Arnold Schwarzenegger movies.

[JPC]

True Lies, Running Man. That's a dancer.

[Casey]

One of his big early movies.

[Adol]

Terminator. Fort Worth. Terminator 2, Judgment Days.

[Casey]

This is a. A hockey team.

[Adol]

Hockey team.

[Casey]

Middle of the country, I guess East.

[Adol]

Basically out on this. If it's not the Blackhawks.

[Casey]

Well, you can go about it from one direction, two directions. Either the name of the movie or the name of the team.

[JPC]

Oh, the Nashville Predators.

[Casey]

The Nashville Predators. And there's also the Commanders. He was in Commando, which I feel is.

[Adol]

Oh yeah, I guess Predators. That's not a good name. Right?

[Casey]

Well, I know their mascot is a like a saber toothed tiger then.

[JPC]

That's for groomers.

[Adol]

Yeah. Right. I mean, there's a lot of sports names. Sports team names that like, are not good for like a lot of reasons. But like predators just seems like that's not good. Pretty much.

[Casey]

I'm on their website and they call themselves the Preds. And that doesn't seem like an improvement.

[Adol]

I've heard people call them the Preds and I'm like, I guess that's better than saying predator. But if we have to shorten it, we all know what it's short for.

[Casey]

That's right. Okay, let's stick with movies. How about impersonating boxers?

[JPC]

Impersonating boxers.

[Adol]

The briefs. St. Louis. Michael B. Jordans. Creed. The Creeds. No.

[JPC]

Boy, this is really throwing me.

[Adol]

The Rockies is the Rockies.

[Casey]

Rockies. Rockies. Yeah. Rockies is something.

[Adol]

Colorado. I've gotten like three of these without knowing what the fuck the team is.

[Casey]

There you go.

[Adol]

Is it the Denver Rockies?

[Casey]

Colorado.

[Adol]

Colorado Rockies. Ok, that makes more sense.

[Casey]

This is another big boxing movie from early 80s.

[JPC]

Oh, the new York. Did you fuck my wife? Raging Bull. I mean the Bulls. Chicago Bulls.

[Casey]

The raging Chicago Bulls.

[Adol]

Did you fuck my wives?

[Casey]

How about road rallying on the U.S. interstate system?

[JPC]

Road rallying?

[Casey]

Yeah. I'm just trying to think of what they would do on there. But the interstate is the key concept here.

[Adol]

This feels Indianapolis coded to me.

[Aaron Keefe]

Trucks, cars, lanes.

[Casey]

What's unique about the interstate system?

[Adol]

Highways, Toll booth.

[JPC]

Oh, would it be Chicago Sky? Because of the skyway.

[Adol]

Wow, that's something.

[JPC]

No. Okay. That was all I had.

[Adol]

That could be air travel. We'll save that one for later. Something unique about the interstate system. Trucks.

[Casey]

Let's say it's unique, but it's like canonical. One is basketball. One's football. I don't think that helps. Yes, interstate is the key here.

[Adol]

Interstate commerce.

[JPC]

I mean, there's the Tar Heels, but that's college. And roads are made of tariff.

[Casey]

Think about how you refer to these interstates.

[Adol]

Like, by their name. You call it the Daily. You call it i74, the Eisenhower.

[Casey]

So I would say this might not help, but for some of the listeners, it might think about most of southern Pennsylvania into Ohio and think about maybe Louisiana and Arkansas and Missouri.

[Adol]

Yeah, that didn't help me at all.

[Casey]

I don't know what's going on.

[Adol]

Louisiana, Arkansas. It's just the shakes.

[JPC]

I just love my mom and pop.

[Casey]

Well, yes, you said it. You refer to them by how some of them have names, but they all have parents.

[Adol]

Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers.

[JPC]

Adopt a highway.

[Adol]

They all have numbers. 76ers.

[Casey]

There you go.

[Aaron Keefe]

49Ers.

[Casey]

49Ers. Yes. 76 goes through Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, and then into Ohio. And I guess 49 goes up Louisiana.

[JPC]

Aaron, how many trombones were there in the big parade?

[Aaron Keefe]

76, sirs.

[JPC]

Is that why they're named the 76?

[Adol]

76, sir.

[Aaron Keefe]

76, sir.

[Casey]

How about a couple more? How about. This will be a groaner. Okay. Making Beer.

[JPC]

The Brewers.

[Adol]

Brewers.

[Casey]

Brewers is literally about making beer. So good, there's another team name that's very close to it. And then there's a little special treat I have for you.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeast.

[JPC]

The Bruins.

[Casey]

The Bruins. There you go. You got it. And then it turns out that in the ultimate Frisbee league, there is a team called the Growlers.

[JPC]

And, Aaron, you said yeast.

[Aaron Keefe]

I didn't say anything. I didn't. I haven't said anything for the last 20 minutes. Perhaps you're gonna mute me for this whole game. I think in Casey we can mute me.

[Adol]

He's asleep.

[Casey]

All right, last one. Reenacting the myth of Icarus.

[Aaron Keefe]

Sun.

[JPC]

The suns. Phoenix Suns.

[Casey]

Phoenix Suns.

[Aaron Keefe]

The wings.

[Adol]

Wings. The wax.

[Casey]

What happens to the wings when they catch on fire?

[Aaron Keefe]

The burn. The heat. Fire.

[Casey]

Wings is there, but you got to tell me something more about them.

[Adol]

Oh, my God. Red wings.

[Aaron Keefe]

Red wings.

[Adol]

Red wings.

[Casey]

Detroit.

[JPC]

Red wings.

[Casey]

Hot wings.

[Adol]

And, Aaron, did you say hot wings?

[Aaron Keefe]

No, I was muted this whole game. I hate this. I hate this.

[JPC]

Now, real quick, you should not get.

[Aaron Keefe]

A soundboard of me if I don't get a soundboard of you real quick.

[JPC]

Aaron.

[Aaron Keefe]

Yes.

[JPC]

Or I think it was Aaron. Did you just come up with the best name for a hot wings store, which is Icarus Hot Wings.

[Adol]

That's pretty good.

[Aaron Keefe]

I wasn't muted. That is my idea, and I will be taking all the money I would like to invest.

[Adol]

All right. Hey, speaking of ideas, Sandy, you recently came up with an idea and then implemented it, in a way. Would you like to tell people about your. I won't say new, but I'll say your game. Your newest game, probably.

[Casey]

Well, why don't you say new? It's pretty new.

[Adol]

Yeah, I guess so. I mean, I heard that days ago, so.

[Casey]

Oh, I see. Things move fast in the world of.

[Adol]

Not new to me anymore.

[Casey]

Right? No, it's pretty new. I launched it about a month ago. It's a new game, daily word game that I made called RadL R A D D L E. Which, like the name, it's a transformation of the word ladder because it is a word ladder type game. So you go to RADL Quest and you'll see how it works. It's a word ladder, but instead of changing a letter every step, you're changing the words into new words using the.

[JPC]

Clues that I give you now, Sandy. I played rattle.

[Casey]

Yep.

[JPC]

And at first I was very frustrated because Raddle led me to believe that it was about ADL being rad. So I entered myself for every answer, and that was apparently incorrect. But then once I started playing it the correct way, it was amazing.

[Casey]

So thank you.

[JPC]

Great job. But I wish you would have been more clear. It wasn't about me.

[Casey]

Yeah. Is Raddle. What do you try to get everyone to call you in middle school?

[JPC]

Yeah. I was like, rat Addle. I was like, everyone's saying rattle.

[Adol]

Yeah, Sandy, I played Rattle. And I've played for three days in a row now, and I technically have played four games because I went back and played a game that you can go backwards and play previous games. And they're all. You're like, writing each one of these, right? They're all, like, straight from your dome. Now, if, per se, someone on the day that we're recording this got 100% and they didn't use any clues and they just got all the answers right the very first time, they'd be Raddle. They would be Raddle. Right. And it's fair to say that we could just say that that person. Actually, it says on the game, it says that I'm so good, I'm battle, but I think I'm also rattle.

[Casey]

Yeah, you're rattle. You're rattler than adl.

[Adol]

Yes.

[Casey]

That's all you Wanted.

[Adol]

So please do check that out. Rattle Quest. It is very fun and you can get notified when the new game comes in every day.

[Casey]

Yeah, that's right. You can sign up for the email list and then I have a newsletter still signals fun. And that's most of what I'm doing these days.

[JPC]

Now Sandy, I don't know if you know this, but there is a professional origami team in the Midwest. Aaron, you told me about this and it's called the Aaron. Just like a name of a city and then like a goodbye or something.

[Casey]

Well, here's what I'll give it to you. Do you know what they. There is a sports team in Sandy, Utah. Did you know that?

[Aaron Keefe]

So.

[JPC]

And Aaron, they're called the Sandy Utah buh Byes or something. Just say like a. Like what do you say?

[Aaron Keefe]

I've been muted this whole game. Adol. I cannot help you today.

[Adol]

Bye Sandy.

[Aaron Keefe]

Bye Sandy.

[Adol]

Bye Sandy.

[JPC]

Wow, always so good to see Sandy, huh?

[Aaron Keefe]

Yeah, Amen.

[Adol]

Although speaking of optometrists, it wouldn't be good to see Sandy, you know what I'm saying?

[JPC]

Oh, like vision wise. Okay. Yeah. Okay.

[Adol]

So I guess it wasn't very good to see him. What have we got to plug? Aaron, what is going on in your life?

[Aaron Keefe]

Follow Quality Time. It is a show that I host in Los Angeles. It's a true variety show.

[Aaron Keefe]

I want to plug Finding New Friends.

[Adol]

Oh, I love that podcast. Okay, this is a five star review. If you want to get a five star review featured on the show Please write a review. Leave it somewhere we might read it. Today's comes to us from Gaff875. It's a five star review. It says three stars. It's okay. And honestly, yeah, that's pretty good. Why not? As long as you leave the five. Don't forget when you do this bit, guys, it has to be a five star review. Don't leave a three star review that says five stars. That is not a good bit.

On the crowd sing I remember mentioning in my favorite things that I almost put on my list singing or putting on a song and pretending that you don't like it. Oh yeah, just because you want to hear it.
