Episode Overview

In this raucous episode, comedians Chris Distefano and Yannis Pappas welcome fellow comic Ryan Sickler for a deep-dive that’s as heartfelt as it is hysterical. The trio uncovers Ryan’s near-death health scare, candidly discusses parenting and step-parenting, riffs on modern medicine, and debates the absurdities of contemporary American culture, all with their signature irreverence and wild chemistry.

---

2. Ryan’s Near-Death Experience

• [06:49] Yannis cues up the main event: Ryan's brush with death following complications from back surgery.
  • Ryan details how a rare genetic blood disease (Factor V Leiden) wasn’t properly managed post-surgery, leading to life-threatening clotting.
  • Ryan: “I was 100% in advocate for myself... I almost died. I’m very lucky to have made it.” [07:12]
  • Shares vivid recounting: the pain, being rushed by staff, and being told “You may be clotting and having a heart attack, and that’s death for me. But they fucking saved me.” [08:04]
• The emotional aftermath and ongoing impact on Ryan's daily life, including lifelong medication and anxiety—especially concerning his daughter’s risk.

---

3. Anxiety, Genetics, and Parenting

• [10:25] Yannis asks how surviving a near-death event changed Ryan’s anxiety levels.

  • Discussion about how blood diseases, stress, and family health histories shape parenting decisions and fears.
• Concern for future generations, especially daughters, since certain medications (like birth control) could be dangerous with Factor V Leiden.

---

4. Modern Medicine & Health Trends

• [14:28] Transition to diabetes, Ozempic, and the “pharmaceutical revolution”:
  • Giannis shares his doctor’s blasé approach to pre-diabetes: “Just take a little pill, you’ll be fine. Knock it all out.” [15:15]
  • They joke about how diabetes and obesity are “a choice now” with modern meds, paralleling Viagra’s serendipitous side effect.

  • Description of the app’s “Tone Meter” and its impact on keeping peace:

---

6. Comedy, Clean vs. Edgy Content, & Generational Tastes

• [55:20] The conversation shifts to the evolution of comedy and taste:
  • Chris: “I think that’s an age thing. When you’re younger you want more charged stuff... as we get older, I don’t want it.” [57:05]
  • Talk about how both stand-up and pop music are trending cleaner (“wholesome”), but kids are paradoxically more restrained socially.

• [41:46] Chris wonders about the career landscape for the next generation, with AI making jobs obsolete.
  • Chris: “In 25 years... should she be a plumber? I don’t know what to do.” [42:13]
  • The group acknowledges nobody knows what’s coming, and the only constant is chaos and change.

---

8. Politics & Social Climate: Identity, Division, and Protest

• [43:00] Spirited commentary on U.S. politics, “no kings” protests, and Democrats’ obsession with identity politics:

  • The hosts lampoon the cycle of outrage, labeling, and social media’s role in escalating division.
  • Yannis: “Every generation thinks they’re living in the worst times.” [41:19]

---

9. Baltimore Sports and Nostalgia

• [51:31] Ryan laments being a fan of struggling Baltimore sports teams, especially the Ravens and Orioles:
  • Finds comfort in tuning out the national noise, instead listening to local Baltimore sports radio.
  • Ryan: “This is my comedy now... I walk the alleys, smoke a joint, and listen to local Baltimore guys call in.” [52:32]
• Reflection on the pleasures of AM radio, reading books by candlelight, and simple family rituals—suggesting “back to basics” is underrated.

---

10. Signature Hyena Absurdity: Patreon Name Game

• [60:51] The gang closes out with one of their classic “Patreon Name” competitions, reading out the most outrageous (often deeply inappropriate) paid supporter names in search of the week’s winner.
  • Names like “I identify as a US Citizen Rodriguez,” “Chancellor of Rim Jobs, AKA Shitler,” and “Shabbat Shalom, I got gefilte pussy pics on my phone” prompt howling laughter and rapid-fire banter.

• Chris on nostalgia:
  “This is my car. I make the car payments. We gotta sit in two hours of traffic. The Giants are playing, and I put on AM radio...” [53:13]

If you're a truck driver, you maybe just have to pull over because your balls just filled up a little bit. And maybe you're even. Maybe you're even pre. Coming. Maybe even a little glues dipping out of your piece on i95. It's possible. Because you know, that voice, it can only be the man. They can only be the voice of one man. One very, very, very handsome, deep voiced man from the great city of Baltimore, Maryland, Mr. Ryan Sickler.

[Ryan Sickler]

Thank you, guys. Hell of an introduction. Thank you.

[Chris Distefano]

I'll say deep voice until he laughs and then he sounds like a schoolgirl getting tickled.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, that's what it is. Yes.

[Chris Distefano]

The laughter is unmistakable.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yes.

[Chris Distefano]

And welcome to the Honey do y'.

[Yanni Pappas]

All. He's the only man. I've said he's the only man. He sounds like a confederate and a Union soldier at the same time.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

That's the greatest description of me I've ever. That's what it is. You are the full civil war in a person. Yes.

[Ryan Sickler]

Listen, they're talking over here about releasing. I don't know that I'm down there. Like they're going to do it.

[Yanni Pappas]

You're going to do it. Yeah. You. If you were alive during that time, you would be the great negotiator.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

This is. You could talk to both sides. Both sides would listen.

[Chris Distefano]

When I first met him, I had no. I thought he was from deep south, like Alabama. And he's like no man from Baltimore.

[Yanni Pappas]

Baltimore. Yeah. Y' all talk like that. No. You don't sound anything like Stavros.

[Ryan Sickler]

Right. Stavros has a different. There's so many different accents there.

[Chris Distefano]

It is, though, a little bit when you say yes there.

[Ryan Sickler]

A little bit. Yeah, I. Look, I. When I moved to California.

[Yanni Pappas]

Sorry to cut you off. I could just tell you one thing. He doesn't sound like Stavros. And Ryan definitely wouldn't be friends with Mom Donnie. That I know for a fact. If you really want to have fun, I'm going to tweet me and Ryan's text message. He does not vote from Abdi.

[Chris Distefano]

Are you also not.

[Ryan Sickler]

Cut the water Action, please. I'm so sorry. I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah. Baltimore has a weird accent. I thought I sounded like everybody else until I moved to California. And they're like so. And I say phone and home, and they're like, phone home. Like that. So, you know, you start here and I have relatives that sound like Stavros's Ronnie character. Yeah, that's. I'm I'm a. You know, I'm a light little version of that. Have a draw. But I have relatives that. That's why I always say Tuesday, because those are the days of the week. They're Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, if you listen. By the way, they should 100% go back to the old school Giants on that. What are we doing? But Phil Sims is a Monday, Tuesday guy. If you listen to him when he. When he talks, announces next time he'll go, well, it's Sunday. They were practicing on Wednesday. And then you could start hearing.

[Yanni Pappas]

Also put a R. So he's a Baltimore guy.

[Ryan Sickler]

He's not a Baltimore guy, but he must be from that area where they.

[Chris Distefano]

Do they call that Mid Atlantic accent.

[Yanni Pappas]

Mid Atlantic.

[Ryan Sickler]

This Philly sounds similar to us, Delaware.

[Yanni Pappas]

County, that whole area.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, because your. Your accent sounds like a dude from Philly that just smoked a lot of weed. Yeah, that sounds like a slowed down version. You may be one of those dudes, like, you always wonder, like, where do accents come from?

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

Because I've met a lot of people from Baltimore. I went to school in D.C. you are unique. You don't sound so much like Baltimore, but you be maybe one of those dudes who like, starts an accent. Like at some point there was some dude in our right.

[Ryan Sickler]

Started or Alabama.

[Chris Distefano]

Never heard about one dude who was just like, hey, man, slow down with how you're talking.

[Yanni Pappas]

Right. You know, here we go. Here's very Patty with Patty, but ice. Yes. Which we're going to call on Nick in a second. Then we got Patty with the fatty Pats from Lebanon. The Pat's from the Baltimore of the Middle East.

[Chris Distefano]

And so at some point there had to be like, a very charismatic Jewish person that was just in Long island going, like, get things done. And then at some point, there had to be like a very, like, charismatic Italian guy going like, fuck you, you asshole. Like, it had to start with somebody, right?

[Yanni Pappas]

And maybe it started with Mr. Ryan Sickler.

[Chris Distefano]

He could be the one that changes the Baltimore accent.

[Yanni Pappas]

More of a Southerner. Ryan, you're a guy, too. You're a guy, too. I can't believe who almost died. Ryan almost died. Yeah. Yeah. Ryan's almost died many times. And that's just called growing up in Baltimore.

[Ryan Sickler]

That's why this whole special is live and alive. It's all about them. Almost. I just almost died.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

I was not in that hospital because I was drinking too much or not smoking too much or not taking care of myself. I was in there. I was 100% in Advocate for myself, saying, I've got this blood disease. Do not let me. Do not. Do not, do not. And they did anyway. And I almost died. I. I'm very lucky to have made it.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Because what was it? What?

[Ryan Sickler]

I just went for a back surgery, but there was a bleed in it. So they had me come back in again for a second one to fix it. And normally after a back surgery, you're a doctor, you know this, they want you up and moving. But because of the second surgery, they're like, well, now you need to lay still. And I. That was the. That was it for me. And I was like, I can't do that. You gotta move me. And they didn't. And then I clotted on the day I was gonna.

[Yanni Pappas]

God. And then did you lose consciousness and all that?

[Ryan Sickler]

Oh, yeah, I almost died.

[Yanni Pappas]

Did you see a light and all that? Near death experience.

[Ryan Sickler]

I felt all the pain because I'd clotted before and they didn't believe me. And I thank God I passed it, but I felt everything. I told the lady when it was happening, I said, I'm clotting. Right after, she said, you can go home. I said, I'm clotting. I collapse on the bed, my eyes are closed.

[Yanni Pappas]

The.

[Ryan Sickler]

A surgeon comes in, he says, sir, what's going on? I said, I'm clotting. He said, what's it feel like, an elephant on your chest? I said, three of them. I said, it's just happened to me.

[Yanni Pappas]

The heart attack. Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

He says, do you have heart attack symptoms? And I say, no. And within a second I say, oh, my God, I'm feeling the shit. They tell you, the jaw, the left arm. And I go, yeah. And he said, this is the last words. You may be clotting and having a heart attack, and that's death for me. But they fucking saved me.

[Yanni Pappas]

So you passed out.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Like, you flatlined, do you think?

[Ryan Sickler]

No, I don't think I flatlined.

[Yanni Pappas]

But you. That's the.

[Ryan Sickler]

Because I was still able to communicate with them. I think they came in and got me quicker. I don't know how long I was out, but I don't. I didn't die.

[Yanni Pappas]

You woke up in a recovery.

[Ryan Sickler]

I woke up being told what just fucking happened to me and that because I have the blood disease, they can't do the surgery through your groin where they just vacuum the shit out.

[Yanni Pappas]

Got a big.

[Ryan Sickler]

That's right, brother. Yeah, big kind of hangs right exactly.

[Yanni Pappas]

Like the way you vote.

[Ryan Sickler]

So that's masterful.

[Yanni Pappas]

Now let me ask you this question we. I wait.

[Ryan Sickler]

So they tell me if they do that procedure, I could be a vegetable. So I gotta go old school, which is IV blood thinners. And if my body takes, then it's. I can shoot myself with a needle and then oral tablet. And I can't leave the hospital until I can take the pill, which is. Ends up being three weeks for me. Because you can't swallow well, because my blood has to take first. And they tell me, like, this might not work. So they tell me it's 48 hours. These 48 hours of touch and go. And they make me make calls. I had to call my daughter vegetable or.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah. Or are you going to be able to do a special that's coming out on YouTube if I make it.

[Ryan Sickler]

And here I am now.

[Chris Distefano]

Do you think that you did this on purpose because I had no material.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yes.

[Chris Distefano]

I need a great honeydew episode.

[Yanni Pappas]

Or were you saying, you know what? This is one way to get on kill, Tony. If I go live from a coma, let me be.

[Chris Distefano]

Let me become a vegetable. So I get the golden ticket.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I would get one, I think.

[Ryan Sickler]

Tony, be kind enough.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yes. You're like, I'm a retard. And they go crazy, start shooting guns in the air. Yeah, yeah. So that's. But see, that's what I'm saying. So we talk about a lot. People who, you know, we have. Sometimes Giannis and I talk about our anxiety and how, you know, low dose of, you know, we need to be on medicine and this and that. But you actually survived a near death experience, so do you have more or less anxiety on the other side of it now?

[Ryan Sickler]

It's a great fucking question. Why did they ask me that? I think I have more ang. Well, I do have more anxiety. Let's not even kid, because it's genetic and my daughter's not tested yet, so.

[Yanni Pappas]

Got it.

[Ryan Sickler]

If she has it, then you both have girls.

[Yanni Pappas]

We both. Yeah, we're all girls.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah. So birth control is prone to making women clot.

[Yanni Pappas]

Oh, okay.

[Ryan Sickler]

So if my daughter has what I have, she can't take birth control. So when it gets to be about that time, we're gonna have to get her test and see, and then we'll have to figure out what goes on.

[Yanni Pappas]

But they will be able to have a test to tell you, does she have it or does she.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah, it's just a blood test and they'll be able to. So. But here's the weird thing. I have two brothers and I'm a fraternal Twin. Which is interesting because we're separate zygotes. He doesn't have it, and my younger brother doesn't have it.

[Yanni Pappas]

Interesting.

[Ryan Sickler]

I just got it from my dad.

[Yanni Pappas]

Right.

[Ryan Sickler]

The only one. Right.

[Yanni Pappas]

Damn.

[Chris Distefano]

Sometimes that's the.

[Yanni Pappas]

That's the draw.

[Ryan Sickler]

But if we're for. If we're identical twins, we'd both have it because we're in that same.

[Chris Distefano]

Maybe your brother in the womb was just like this.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah, he saw.

[Yanni Pappas]

He was. He was in there. He was in there. But he was even like, yo, this dude's clotting.

[Chris Distefano]

And you're too laid back. You're like, nah, I'm comfortable right here. And he's like, yeah, get that. And you're like, well, beats moving.

[Ryan Sickler]

I also worry about it because I'm on blood thinners forever now, and they Heparin. They. I'm on eliquis twice a day. Twice a day. I have an oncologist. I still. Even after being all lab rat, I still have to meet with an oncologist every six months. And I'll tell you what that. That puts in perspective, because I go to an oncologist with no cancer, and there was a day I waited for 45 minutes in there, and I was getting pissed.

[Yanni Pappas]

I'm just.

[Ryan Sickler]

But I didn't say anything to anybody. And when they finally call me, I walked past all the IV drips and everybody sitting in there, I was like, you know what? I'll sit here for three hours.

[Yanni Pappas]

Seriously, it.

[Ryan Sickler]

Right away, it was like, boom.

[Yanni Pappas]

So why do you need to go to an oncologist if you don't have cancer?

[Ryan Sickler]

Because I have this. This blood disease. And he just wants to make sure that. Because that's the other thing. Oncologists also deal with other.

[Yanni Pappas]

Right.

[Ryan Sickler]

But everyone knows him as cancer. So when I heard that, my doctor's like, don't freak out when I'm about to tell you. And he said, oncologist. I was like, what?

[Yanni Pappas]

That's a cancer?

[Ryan Sickler]

That's what I said.

[Yanni Pappas]

Of course.

[Ryan Sickler]

So this guy's good, though. I see him every six months, and he just monitors my iron and makes sure I'm good to go and that everything's rolling. Right. Because I got to have this meds. Because I travel all the time. So I wear compression pants. I get up on the flight, got.

[Yanni Pappas]

Them on right now, the compression.

[Ryan Sickler]

I will tonight when I fly at all.

[Yanni Pappas]

Hell yeah. Send us a pick of that. We'll throw that up on the episode. A lot of you guys want to get horny. Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

You got It.

[Chris Distefano]

The high socks, the height.

[Yanni Pappas]

My dad wrote. My dad walks around in compression socks all day, dude. Dude, he looks like Aaron Judge. He's just got him pulled up all day. You know, because he wear. Judge wears those high socks. My dad wears a compression socks dude all day. And because my dad's a diabetic, he takes very good care of his feet. Dude, my dad's feet are so soft. And if you just zoomed in on my dad's foot, he looks like he has a woman's foot. And.

[Chris Distefano]

And it.

[Yanni Pappas]

And it's.

[Ryan Sickler]

If only his foot was his child.

[Yanni Pappas]

Oh, you know. Yeah, dude, he. How's a man give to his feet feet? Dude, he's forced children. Got his wife rubbing cream all over his feet every day. He's got those compression socks on nice.

[Ryan Sickler]

And, like, Jerry Rice's even hand, you know what I mean?

[Yanni Pappas]

Soft leather, immaculate. He does not want to lose his feet. So that's. But he'll eat, you know, he'll eat a full cheesecake to the head.

[Ryan Sickler]

But I'm saying, does he not get the fact that that's still going to kill the feet?

[Chris Distefano]

Well, that's how good fucking cheesecake is. Right? I'm just going, fuck, this is a dilemma.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

I'm going to lose my foot or I have this cheesecake.

[Yanni Pappas]

The cheesecake's just going to win. Well, that's the thing. Like, I have high, you know, I'm not diabet, but I have. I've always had higher blood sugar, genetically from my dad. And also I just pound sweets big. I mean, I just got a bagel and I dipped it into banana pudding out there. That's just how I fucking roll. And I'm walking around here with the stomach virus. I got Pepto Bismol in my pocket. So I don't care, dude. I'm full of diarrhea, but I just can't be stopped by sugar. So.

[Chris Distefano]

He also lives in a very nice neighborhood, but is wearing a jacket that looks like he should be asleep on the seventh train.

[Yanni Pappas]

It's just what it is.

[Ryan Sickler]

You look like you got that a chess gig.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Make absolutely no mistake, my father wants to get buried with this jacket on, so this old school, 1979 giants leather jacking logo. So. But anyway. But now with modern medicine, you know, the doctor, when he took my blood, he was like, we're all good. I was like, oh. You know. You know, because I have a little bit of a medical background, so, you know, blood sugar's a little high. My A1C you know, it's like 5.4, 5.6 is pre diabetic. And he was like, listen, if you get into the 5.6 range, you know, or. Or over, and your blood sugar gets a little higher, we'll just put you on a very low dose of Ozempic and it'll knock it right out. You can just keep eating like you're eating. And I'm like, like, that's crazy that even, that even diabetes, technically. I mean, it's not for everybody, but technically, the doctors are like, it's like HIV now. They're like, you know what, dude? You just take a little pill, you'll be fine. Knock it all out.

[Ryan Sickler]

Is that really right?

[Yanni Pappas]

If you microdose, they're seeing microdosing, you know, Ozempic, because that's a GL1P inhibitor. So that, that, you know, the, the losing of the weight was just a byproduct of it. It is. It is revolutionized care. And diabetes. Diabetes and obesity are two things.

[Ryan Sickler]

This is brand new news to me.

[Yanni Pappas]

They're a choice now. They're a choice.

[Ryan Sickler]

Ozempic is helping with diabetes. That more than the weight.

[Chris Distefano]

Wasn't it originally supposed.

[Yanni Pappas]

You're saying the weight loss came as a bipartisan. They figured it out to lower people's A1C.

[Ryan Sickler]

This is like Viagra.

[Yanni Pappas]

100% Viagra.

[Ryan Sickler]

I read a long time ago. With her heart. Yeah. And then they wanted it back. And men didn't send the.

[Yanni Pappas]

No, people were popping boners like crazy, dude.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

So that's why nowadays, not technically right now in present day, but within the next few years, like, our daughters are going to grow up in a world where being obese and being diabetic is a choice.

[Ryan Sickler]

So their children will be able to take something even 100%, then hopefully it's.

[Yanni Pappas]

A choice meaning, do you have the medicine to prevent it? You don't have to take it.

[Ryan Sickler]

Right.

[Yanni Pappas]

You know, like, and that. And that happens to many to do, you know, polio, leprosy. These were things that people just live with.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

I was like, nobody's getting that anymore.

[Chris Distefano]

There's a lot of things that end up having a different effect, like, than the intended effect.

[Yanni Pappas]

Like, sure.

[Chris Distefano]

For example, if you have a lot of gay thoughts and you jerk off with Vicks Vapor Rub, then your brain affiliates pain with attraction to males, and it can cure the gay dude.

[Yanni Pappas]

Crystal meth. Yeah. Crystal meth was just a beautiful little thing that the Nazis invented. Adolf Hitler and the scientists over there, they invented Rock Panzer chocolate, which was just Chocolate. Little tablets that the Nazis would eat that would keep them up. It was like, they thought was, like, a high dose of caffeine so they could just kill Jews at will, but it was actually crystal meth in just a cute little chocolate coating. Like a little Hershey cats. Yeah, but so. So things come out of, you know, science.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah. And sometimes things, you know, you're like, oh, this just keeps me up at night. But then also, it makes you, you know, have good, like, ideas. Yeah, his ideas.

[Yanni Pappas]

Sigmund Freud wouldn't have had any cocaine. Cocaine, The Oedipal complex and all that was all coked out. Yeah. But. Yeah, so no reason to be so if you're obese and diabetic, what we're saying here in the history show is it's a choice and it's your choice. Yeah, that's what we're saying. That's not controversial.

[Chris Distefano]

But unfortunately, I don't think there's any secondary benefit to what you got. I think you just got what you got. Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

No, but I bet you they can treat your disease. What's the disease called?

[Ryan Sickler]

Called Factor 5 Leiden. And it's a genetic blood disease.

[Chris Distefano]

Use the promo code history hyenas.

[Yanni Pappas]

You use factor meals. Factor five Alight and factor meals. Promo code.

[Chris Distefano]

Like a plug.

[Yanni Pappas]

Promo code. Hyenas. Factor Phyliden. Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

Get the. Get the Factor 5 diet plan.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

And it just means I have thick blood and I'm prone to clotting.

[Yanni Pappas]

I think that's like.

[Ryan Sickler]

Or 8. It's a thin blood.

[Yanni Pappas]

Got it. But you got. You got.

[Ryan Sickler]

I've got the blood.

[Yanni Pappas]

You got that thick.

[Ryan Sickler]

And here's the thing. It's something you don't even know you have. My dad died not knowing he had it.

[Yanni Pappas]

I really.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah. So I find this all out after going, what the Going on?

[Yanni Pappas]

Did your dad just drop one day. I don't know where.

[Ryan Sickler]

He. He did have a heart attack. We took him to Hopkins. They released him, telling him he had blood clots, and when he got home, he died like, a day. Two days later, we found him in his bed. Damn. But it was ruled because he's 42. Everything back then is ruled hard.

[Yanni Pappas]

42 when he D. He was a baby.

[Ryan Sickler]

Wow. That's just young. Heart attack. That's what they would always tell you back then. Heart attack. They're realizing now these days that a lot of the heart attacks back then probably were clots, lungs or what they just, you know, technology so much. But this is 1989 also, so, you know, I've been diligent about cholesterol and everything. Thinking all my life, it's this. And then I get kidney stones and I'm bedridden and out of nowhere.

[Yanni Pappas]

You never had kidney stones before? That just came out.

[Ryan Sickler]

And I mean, it was all stress related. This is when my daughter and mom and I are splitting, right? My daughter's mother and I are splitting and it's all stress and I get kidney stones. But I start. I'm in. I'm in the Star wars movie. The. The Han Solo died one. And I'm wearing jeans and I'm just rubbing my legs. Like I can feel my veins in my legs like a topographical map. And I'm like, what the. So I just called the hospital. I'm like, hey. They said, sir, you're clotting. You need to get to the hospital now. So I go, I have still kidney stone complications. But now they think you might have cancer. You might have leukemia. You might. I'm like, what? So then it becomes. All while I'm splitting with my daughter's mother, I'm looking for a new. I'm. It's crazy.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

It's. Now I gotta worry.

[Yanni Pappas]

You're like, what kind of voodoo did my daughter's mother put on me right here?

[Ryan Sickler]

Listen, when I was in the hospital the first time.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

She loved to watch snapped, you know? Snap. Yeah, sure. Of course.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

And when she left, I looked at the doctor and I said, check me for low grade poison.

[Yanni Pappas]

Seriously, check me for some arsenic, baby. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

[Ryan Sickler]

Came back and I was like, I told him to check me for low grade mine.

[Yanni Pappas]

Are you like.

[Ryan Sickler]

Are you serious?

[Yanni Pappas]

You don't get nothing if I die in that prenup, baby. That's why you guys got to put in the prenup, that if you die from anything mysterious like that, she don't get.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah. What do you do?

[Yanni Pappas]

You got to die from insurance with that.

[Chris Distefano]

You do carve out something. Like carve it all out me?

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah. Yep, yep. We call that little Puerto Rican clause. Sure. I got. I. I got the PR clause in it. Those snapped y. Dude, she loved her on oxygen. You guys could see it on oxygen now. You could see it on investigation, discovery, investigation.

[Chris Distefano]

I told my wife, since he's younger than me, just going like, hey, if I die, our insurance is, you got to get a job.

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, but the truth is, Johnny.

[Ryan Sickler]

Well.

[Yanni Pappas]

And that's the reason to keep me alive, you're saying? Yeah, that's the correct.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, well, because.

[Yanni Pappas]

Don't try anything stupid now, Ryan. You're a great father. I was always loved that about you. You love your, you love your kids, love your, your child and the ex wife. You guys are get along now, right? Like you've just got x wife.

[Ryan Sickler]

We were never married.

[Yanni Pappas]

Okay.

[Ryan Sickler]

And I will say kids because I have. Have my daughter's brother. Their brother and sister now, obviously. But he's been in my life since he was 6, so I've been with him the whole way, except for little spats of here and there not being around. But like he's drift racing now and I sponsored the car and like it's been, it's been awesome.

[Yanni Pappas]

So he's Japanese.

[Ryan Sickler]

He's a Japanese kid now. Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Like the whole kid too.

[Ryan Sickler]

He's six, five. Yeah. Wow.

[Yanni Pappas]

Is he playing some ball?

[Ryan Sickler]

Well, he played basketball for a while, but he's super into cars, so he started working for Ford. Worked his way up. He's only 20. Worked his way up to a master mechanic. They're sending him around the country and I'm on the road. I'm like, what city you. And he's like, I'm going to Phoenix for class.

[Yanni Pappas]

He's got more dates than you right now.

[Ryan Sickler]

I said to him, jesus Christ. Yeah. So he just. Well, I don't know if I should say this, but either way, he's. He's got an opportunity for a killer new job with Hoonigan I think they're called, or something's a big deal. Good in this world. So he's crushing it. Good. He's a great older brother and a really good influence.

[Yanni Pappas]

Being a stepfather, I'm a stepfather too. That's the hardest. That's way harder than being a biological parent because you got, especially as a guy, you got to override every instinct to be like, you're not my kid. To deal with the problems that any teenager is going through. So you. I know, I know how that feels where you just deal with it. But that's, you know, his success is pro. Is very much linked to yours. I mean, because if you would have died, you would have really let down your family.

[Ryan Sickler]

Listen, man, that kid for real?

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, for real.

[Ryan Sickler]

That kid, I say it in a special. Like he. He's 18. When I go in, he took me to the surgery. He came and checked on me.

[Yanni Pappas]

You were like, he drifted across the highway on you.

[Ryan Sickler]

Is fantastic.

[Yanni Pappas]

It paid off to be nice to this seriously dude. And it's also a thankless job because I'm sure throughout his life he didn't know to thank you or what an impactful guy you were in his life. We find out later.

[Ryan Sickler]

We did a, during the pandemic, he was getting his license and I needed content and he needed a driving hours. So I did a whole thing called learner's permit with him where I took him out to teach him how to drive. And I got content on my YouTube.

[Yanni Pappas]

Check it out.

[Chris Distefano]

Good.

[Yanni Pappas]

Cause you know me, you know the thing that I tell you about all the time is I love huge thick cock. That's what I want. That's what I want to see. I told you, you said you weren't feeling good. I said baby gorgeous. You know what you need to do? You need to pop a Blue Chew. They're chewable tablets. You need to pop it and then what you do is you use your boner to clean out your nose.

[Chris Distefano]

There's nothing more depressing than a soft glue gun. I like my glue guns hard.

[Ryan Sickler]

Salute.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, I mean, cuz I gotta be honest with you. I don't think there's anything a hard glue gun can't fix. I mean, and dude, there's a lot of times I, you know, I, I, I snake my toilet with my glue gun.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, I, I, I hang clothes on.

[Yanni Pappas]

My, I hang, I hang clothes on my glue gun. I mean, I love it. And I want you guys to start to feel what me and Giannis feel. And that's just having a nice rhb. Rhp. Rock hard penis.

[Chris Distefano]

There's only one guy I know who loves glue guns more than us. Jim Norton.

[Yanni Pappas]

Oh, he loves cock. Now this isn't just about performance. Okay, guys, I want you to give the group chat something to talk about. I want you to take a Blue Chew, which is a chewable tablet made right here. And I want you to take a picture of that glue stick and I want you to send it to your boys group chat at about 3 o' clock in the morning. So they all wake up and they go whoa.

[Chris Distefano]

Can I ask you guys a question to step parents?

[Yanni Pappas]

Yes.

[Chris Distefano]

Since you.

[Ryan Sickler]

No.

[Yanni Pappas]

All right.

[Chris Distefano]

They say trans women are not women.

[Yanni Pappas]

Right.

[Chris Distefano]

But as step parents, you can't. Can you say, isn't it the same thing as saying step parents aren't parents?

[Yanni Pappas]

Right.

[Chris Distefano]

You know what I'm saying?

[Yanni Pappas]

Right?

[Chris Distefano]

Because there's a lot of people who would say my stepdad was my dad.

[Ryan Sickler]

Well, let me say this. I'll say this. Can I take this one?

[Chris Distefano]

Sure. Our step parents.

[Ryan Sickler]

Parents. The reason you say step parent is because they're a step, step in parent. They're stepping in to help out.

[Chris Distefano]

Is that what it comes from?

[Yanni Pappas]

That's where it comes from, yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

Believe so that's true. You're a step parent, right? You're a step parent. The same way you're a trans woman.

[Yanni Pappas]

But the kid with.

[Ryan Sickler]

Don't call.

[Chris Distefano]

Don't call my stepdad. That was my piece of shit.

[Ryan Sickler]

I'm a step parent. Yeah, you're a trans woman. Regardless of. However anyone identifies to any title, if A was a, we wouldn't need to put a disclaimer on it all the time, like step or trans. If a trans woman was a woman, you wouldn't need to call her trans. You wouldn't need to tell me that.

[Yanni Pappas]

Right, right.

[Chris Distefano]

Sometimes it's better not to know.

[Yanni Pappas]

Got it.

[Ryan Sickler]

Step parent.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah. Sometimes it's better to find out after you come.

[Chris Distefano]

Yes, but what about the kid? What if the kid says to me, that's my dad, I call him dad, but the kid. To the kid. The kid's going, okay, but I'm not a dad. Just call him dad. That's my dad.

[Ryan Sickler]

But that's different than titles. Yeah, that's different than titles. Like, if you're a trans woman and you say I'm a trans woman, which.

[Yanni Pappas]

By the way, Giannis is on camera, I'm calling you.

[Chris Distefano]

I'm only that in New York shows and Miami.

[Yanni Pappas]

And Miami shows. Yeah, Miami.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah. I will call you Linda if you're Linda. So if you want me to call. If he wants to call me dad, then that's fine, too. But those are just things within people's communication. Well, it's when you get outside of it and everyone starts to classify and title and everything, that's where it gets muddy and foolish, like, whoever the. Look, man, if you're my Uncle Teresa, you're my Uncle Teresa. You know what I mean? Who gives a.

[Chris Distefano]

What does he call you? Does he call you Ryan or.

[Ryan Sickler]

He just calls me Ryan.

[Chris Distefano]

Ryan.

[Ryan Sickler]

But he would. So he's the one that actually brought it up. I never brought it up or anything. I went to pick him up at school one day, and these kids were always like, who are you? Always come pick him up every day. And he goes, he's my stepdad, dad. And so then I was like, all right, because he has a dad. So I called his dad. His dad and I are close. And I was like, you know, he said this, and I would never want to step on. Like, I wouldn't want somebody. My daughter calling somebody a stepdad if. If he wasn't really, you know.

[Chris Distefano]

Right.

[Ryan Sickler]

And he was good with it. He was good with it.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, That's.

[Ryan Sickler]

I think that. So that Just came. It comes. You know what I mean?

[Chris Distefano]

That's a reason why I always think about why I don't want to get divorced. I just don't want my kids being like, like, you know, having it graduate from Steve to my stepdad.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, yeah, but that.

[Chris Distefano]

I want to keep him.

[Ryan Sickler]

Steve.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

If there's another guy in my dad's life, you better keep calling him Steve.

[Yanni Pappas]

Right?

[Chris Distefano]

There's only one dad in this place.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

You're still Chris, right?

[Yanni Pappas]

Chris to my stepson. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

So he just goes, chris, can I go to school?

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, he just goes, yeah, he goes, chris, take me to school. Or Chris, do this. Or yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Or sometimes now he talks through his child advocate.

[Ryan Sickler]

What do they call you?

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, just a third guy on the phone now, basically.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah. You got the government all involved.

[Yanni Pappas]

I got that. I'm involved. Here's the thing. Here's the thing is I've. I can 100 tell you about the New York City court system and I've never committed a crime in my life, okay? But I know more about the ins and outs of the New York City family court system than you'll ever know in your fucking life.

[Chris Distefano]

But baby, let me ask.

[Ryan Sickler]

That's something I definitely, I, I, you.

[Yanni Pappas]

Know about the Baltimore car family?

[Ryan Sickler]

Baltimore la. Cuz my daughter's mom and I, and.

[Yanni Pappas]

She lives in la. Your daughter with you or she lives in Baltimore?

[Ryan Sickler]

No, no, no, we're all in LA. Yeah, I have 50, 50 custody and that's what I fought for. Like I wanted all that, you know what I mean? Like, I don't want to be a Wednesday weekend like that guy. I wanted to be a dad. So when you split up, two, three schedule.

[Yanni Pappas]

So when you split up with her mom, she, because she came out to LA with you, you.

[Ryan Sickler]

No, no, we met in la. Okay, yeah, yeah, we met in la. So she was living there already. We met a gig and she's an audio mixer and that was how we met. And then, you know.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, baby, yeah, yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

So we live, I live, you know, I don't know, three miles away. It's like a 1012 minute ride. Perfect. Everything's dialed in now, you know, and it, we didn't start off that way like it was, we were like going back and forth. But when she gave me this because she's like, look, I don't want to go to court. I don't want to do this whole. Let's create our own, own court order that we go by. Let's not get lawyers involved. So we got it to about 80% aware we were liked it. And then she wanted to get an attorney for the rest of it. And then when I read it, I was like, I would have said yes to this. She's like, you would have. And I was like, yeah, yeah. And so I signed it, and that was it. And the beautiful thing about that is it's on paper and it's. This is textbook, but we don't have to do this. This is if shit gets gets bad. And you. You. Yeah, we go by this. Yep. But we're good enough where she's been. Great. I'm here because she'll switch. And so I've got a two, two, three. Every other weekend. So I have my daughter, and then I'll go on the road. Have my daughter, I'll go on the road. So it's actually worked out really for our careers.

[Yanni Pappas]

I know. And I've. I've been on both sides of it, dealing with the courts and then not dealing with the courts, and always don't deal with the courts because even the lawyers are like. Like, you know, once you open up that Pandora's box and now a judge is involved, you got to play by rules, because then all of a sudden, you miss a pickup or whatever. Now, like this now whatever city you're from is involved. And now it's like, it's not a dispute between parents. Now it's like some freaking judges involved. And you got to deal with a.

[Ryan Sickler]

Person has no idea about you or your kid.

[Yanni Pappas]

You're a black and white.

[Ryan Sickler]

Met you nothing. You're a statistic. So I'll be honest. I pulled into Part park, it was 25, and I was like, we ain't coming back here again. That 25 every time.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

And then we got the she. And see, that was the thing, too. I kept telling her. I was like, I know you don't want to hear this because we're at odds, but your attorney's praying on you right now, like, every 15 minutes is a charge. If I send an email, it's a charge, Charge, charge, charge, charge. And I said, I would agree to this. I would agree to. You didn't need all this. But she did. We got it done. And now that's. Yeah. We also use an app called our Family Wizard. You know about the ofw? Our Family Wizard's a great app because what it is, is it's recognized by the courts, at least in California. So. Meaning these days with AI and everything else, you could say, Ryan texted me this, and you could make up, you know, I'm going to kill you, light the house on fire, whatever. Those aren't admissible in court anymore. At least there. But this app is recognized by the court. So if there's anything we need to do that's, you know, professional or whatever, we deal with it. The app and it. The courts don't monitor the app. It's just something that when you. Let's say you're having an argument, you could say, no, that didn't happen. This is what they said. You can take that into court. They'll recognize that conversation. Yeah, they won't recognize all the time. Text and things.

[Chris Distefano]

I would love to have that app just with my wife, even though we're together. Yeah, it's.

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, and it's one of those things where, you know, as you said, it gets very expensive. For any of the people who were criticizing me for going to Saudi Arabia, I have three words for you. Brooklyn Family Court. That's what I have to pay for. That's what I have to pay for. So suck my ass. I have fully converted into the Taliban because I gotta pay these lawyers. Not even my kid.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, that'd be great if they had an app where you could. You, you know, you could. Could vent what you want to say. That'd be great. Okay, here's a thing into a nice message.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yes.

[Chris Distefano]

That's chat.

[Yanni Pappas]

That's chat.

[Ryan Sickler]

GPT you should be using. Yeah. But our family wizard has a tone meter.

[Yanni Pappas]

Okay. I like that.

[Ryan Sickler]

So what? And here's what sucks about it is because if you're. If you write something like I told you that I would. Nope. It'll light up. There's five tone bars like your WI FI bar, and you type it out and it'll be. So I got. Great. My goal, and I never sent one, was to send every message without that tow meter hitting one. Wow. And I would do it.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

Did the ones I get back come in like that? No, they were. I would screen grab and send them back, like, please. And I'd circle.

[Chris Distefano]

Watch your toes.

[Yanni Pappas]

Watch your tone.

[Ryan Sickler]

But you know who I learned the tow meters from? For the people.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yes, yes. People with vaginas. The tone. Yeah. I can talk to you however the.

[Ryan Sickler]

I want to, but the minute you give it back to me. How dare that's who the. To beers for the people who can dish but can't take.

[Yanni Pappas]

Dude, my family. What? What an epic, revolutionary app. Because like you said, you don't have to use it for the court. I could just be texting. We could Text our wives and see what the tone is. Yeah, yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

That would be great if black teenagers on the bus could go through the app.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, I like. Yeah, it's a lot of typing just.

[Chris Distefano]

To get the tone down.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, tone, it's like it's a little much.

[Chris Distefano]

Make that noise through the app and.

[Yanni Pappas]

It'Ll give you a tone. Can you watch your tone?

[Chris Distefano]

Be good for good game.

[Yanni Pappas]

Strong.

[Chris Distefano]

Be great for Derek Gaines in the stand green room.

[Yanni Pappas]

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Mr. Derek Gaines games. Put that into the app. Ryan, how long have you been in New York for?

[Ryan Sickler]

Oh, man, literally 30 hours.

[Yanni Pappas]

While you're in and out.

[Ryan Sickler]

I'm in. I fly out tonight. I'm headed to Austin. I got in, I don't know, after midnight, officially Monday and knocked out. We did. So look, for me, I did Stavi's pod yesterday. I did soda.

[Chris Distefano]

Say the tranny.

[Ryan Sickler]

Right?

[Yanni Pappas]

You didn't say tranny on Stavi's pod. No, no. Can't say that word.

[Ryan Sickler]

I did kfc, barstool. Are you garbage? And I'm here with you guys and I'm flying tomorrow to go do your mom's house.

[Yanni Pappas]

Perfect. Now. Yeah. Because, you know, I always thought you would be the guy because you're such an East Coast. I. I gravitate towards guys from the original 13 colonies. And you're a colonist. You're. You're. You're. You're one of us. You're a freedom fighter. You're a patriot. You're a son of liberty. And I always.

[Ryan Sickler]

Funny, they say the same thing to me when I'm down in Alabama.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, yeah, I know both guys.

[Chris Distefano]

So.

[Yanni Pappas]

But you. The fact that you still live in Los Angeles is because of your daughter once. Your daughter. When your daughter says, dad, dad, I'm going to school wherever you are getting out of la immediately.

[Ryan Sickler]

Out of la? Yes. California. I do love California.

[Yanni Pappas]

That's interesting. I didn't think you would.

[Ryan Sickler]

I would say this every night. I am on Zillow looking at houses in Maryland all the time. I really love Maryland. I'd like to go back to Maryland eventually. I like the Four Seasons. I like the food. I like the. All of it.

[Yanni Pappas]

Oh, crab cakes. Now, your daughter is how old?

[Ryan Sickler]

She's 11.

[Yanni Pappas]

Oh, she's 11. She's still young.

[Ryan Sickler]

I got another 10 years problem in LA.

[Chris Distefano]

Tell her to speed it up.

[Yanni Pappas]

But maybe you could start telling her, maybe you could start putting her head that she should go to University of Maryland or she should go to a school.

[Ryan Sickler]

I told her, you know, my goal is to Buy a place somewhere else so that when she's in high school and that's the summer place where we go with the friends and all that stuff. Maybe it's.

[Yanni Pappas]

You want that on the East coast, you want that in the.

[Ryan Sickler]

That's what I'm thinking.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

But she likes UCLA right now. And right across the hall we got three football players from UCLA that live there and we talk to them and they're cool as. So she'll.

[Yanni Pappas]

In their apartment building.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah. Wow.

[Yanni Pappas]

It's cool.

[Ryan Sickler]

Chat with them. Them. But I do really like when it comes to California. I really like, like the north San Diego pocket. Oh, yeah, it's that Delmar. Or is it Delmar? No, no, no, it is Delmar. Yeah, that Oceanside. Like, that area is cool.

[Yanni Pappas]

San Diego, San Diego is. We'll call it a Christian city.

[Ryan Sickler]

I like. I like San Diego. You know what's funny about San Diego? During all the pandemic where LA was out of their minds, we couldn't do anything.

[Yanni Pappas]

LA is an Islamic city.

[Ryan Sickler]

I went to. I went to, excuse me, San Diego. And they didn't bring up Trump. They didn't bring up. They just.

[Yanni Pappas]

Nope.

[Ryan Sickler]

They just moved forward as if life was not different at all. If you wanted to wear a mask, you're welcome to, but you don't have to. Like. I was like, how in the. Are we two hours away from this shit?

[Yanni Pappas]

San Diego's the best. San Diego's a little haven, you know, I think it's leans right big time, dude. You see the comedy club? There's got a bald eagle and American flag in the background.

[Ryan Sickler]

It's from. From. I'd about. Just north of Irvine. South is all right. I mean, you go to the harbor, it's all Trump flags flying.

[Yanni Pappas]

Orange County, California is big time or big time.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

People don't realize that even when you go north, it is too. Like, LA is this one chunk of this. And then you got San Francisco up there too as well. But everything in between, that's all cowboy and redneck the whole way up. And then it's all Republican all the way down. Even east, where my stepson went to live with his dad. Dad. They're all Trump out there too. It's just Los Angeles.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, just a little.

[Ryan Sickler]

It really is.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Now, would you. Would you like to buy an apartment in Greece? Yanni's family owns an apartment in Greece that they're selling.

[Ryan Sickler]

Are you.

[Chris Distefano]

My brother wants to get rid of it.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah, that's what they do.

[Yanni Pappas]

You want to Sell it to the sicklers.

[Ryan Sickler]

How much is it?

[Chris Distefano]

I don't know what he's.

[Ryan Sickler]

Tell me all. Let's hear the pitch.

[Yanni Pappas]

It's. It's 10 Chobani.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

What's the. How many bedrooms. Bathrooms?

[Chris Distefano]

We got three bedrooms there that we.

[Yanni Pappas]

Know of, but he is a gay kid, so there might be some secret layers.

[Chris Distefano]

Some secret layers?

[Yanni Pappas]

Unfortunately, yeah, might be some. But if that's fun, you can make that. You can turn that into, like a fun, you know, video game space.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, but the thing about, you know, moving out of the country is you think, like, all these protests and stuff is percolating over here.

[Yanni Pappas]

What do you mean?

[Chris Distefano]

Like, is things getting bad in America?

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, I mean, to chill out. Yes. Here's the thing there. Everyone needs to chill out. I agree. Because the Internet galvanizes it. But what I like to do is talk to the elderly. That's what I like to do, is I talk to the elderly. So I talk to my dad, I talk to some of his friends, I talk to my mom's friends, and they all tell me the same thing in different words is, yes, it's bad now, but when they were little kids in the. In the 50s and 60s, and they literally had to do drills where they were hiding under desks because they thought a nuclear attack was imminent in it. That was also scary. And they. We were fine. So they're like, you'll be okay. Like, my father always says, new York City right now is terrible. It really is. He goes, but it wasn't even close to how terrible it was in the 70s, that's for sure. 70s. And he said, and we got through.

[Ryan Sickler]

That better now than the seventies.

[Yanni Pappas]

Way better now than the seventies.

[Chris Distefano]

Seventies was the worst.

[Yanni Pappas]

He said, so you gotta understand, like, you. Every. He always says, like, every generation thinks they're living in the worst times and blah, blah, blah. So he was like, you got to put it in perspective.

[Ryan Sickler]

Perspective.

[Yanni Pappas]

Now, with that being said, defend Christendom at all costs.

[Ryan Sickler]

Also, though, you think about it like my. Our kids. Our kids do active shooters drills at school. Do you have you.

[Yanni Pappas]

Oh, yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

Our kids have had to do. I only thing I had to do was sit in the hallway and just bend between my legs and hope that we.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, we would do fire drills. Yeah, yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

These kids.

[Ryan Sickler]

So what are their kids going to be doing?

[Yanni Pappas]

I know.

[Chris Distefano]

I don't even know.

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, I worry about it. I don't know if you guys think about this, you know, our daughters are roughly the same age Johnny's daughter's a little bit younger. But I genuinely think about, like, what are my children going to do? Like in 20 years from now? Who knows? Like, you can't pinpoint what AI is going to take over and what it's not. But already jobs are becoming obsolete. So, like, what are my daughters going to do? What is the best plan of action? Is it, you know, in 25 years, will teachers be AI, like is. Should they. Should she be applying Plumber. I don't know what to do.

[Chris Distefano]

I don't think anyone can really figure out anything pretty soon without AI.

[Yanni Pappas]

Right.

[Chris Distefano]

I don't know. Like, nobody's reasonable anymore.

[Yanni Pappas]

No.

[Chris Distefano]

Even this, like, no Kings protest. You're going like, you guys are still doing this. You guys are still yelling about Trump. That's your strategy. Like, when are you just going to get an alternative? Like an exciting alternative?

[Ryan Sickler]

How about put all that money in Janity into a good candidate?

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, how about that?

[Ryan Sickler]

How about not throwing a candidate up that we have to. To vote for because you didn't have an election when the president dropped out.

[Yanni Pappas]

But they just what it is missing.

[Ryan Sickler]

That there's nobody out there.

[Yanni Pappas]

Both Curtis Lee want from there.

[Ryan Sickler]

They got the lady from the lady cussing at everybody trying to run for governor out there in California.

[Chris Distefano]

It's like, just throw us. And then Newsom's the only alternative. He's not that great.

[Ryan Sickler]

Did you see the Rachel Maddow Kamala interview where she called her out for it?

[Yanni Pappas]

Is this recent?

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

No.

[Chris Distefano]

What is it?

[Ryan Sickler]

She's on a book tour. Tour. And she's on a book tour and she's sitting with Rachel Maddow. And Rachel Maddow's like, look, I. You know, as an ally over all these years, you said something in your book and we have to call you out on it.

[Chris Distefano]

Oh, I did see that.

[Yanni Pappas]

I didn't see what happened.

[Ryan Sickler]

Is his name Buddha Pete likes it.

[Yanni Pappas]

In the Buddha Ch.

[Ryan Sickler]

Pete is gay. Yep. And basically he was the guy that should have run with Kamala, but Kamala passed on him because she's already a African American female running against Maga and having a gay guy go in there would just. Just be double used from them and there'd be no way it would happen.

[Yanni Pappas]

Okay.

[Ryan Sickler]

And she literally tries to say that she didn't do that and talks full circle into saying so. Yeah, that's why I didn't do it.

[Chris Distefano]

It's wild because she put it in the book, which was funny and she was. Now that's not what it meant. And it's the same reason why she didn't choose Shapiro, because she was like, oh, it's not going to look good to have a Jew right now because of the anti. And so the Democrats just keep doing this identity thing that's like not working. And then they're having a no Kings protest. You go, going like, you know, he's not a king, right?

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

You know, he was elected by 77 million people. Yeah, there's no kings elected by 77.

[Yanni Pappas]

It's so dumb.

[Chris Distefano]

It's like, what is your strategies to yell a guy. And also that you wouldn't it for fucking 10 years.

[Yanni Pappas]

It's not working. People who are doing it, I don't even think I really care. I was there during the last no Kings protest. I think it was in June.

[Ryan Sickler]

You went to one?

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, I was in Santa Fe, New Mexico, doing a show out there. And I love state capitol. So Santa Fe is the state capital. So of course they're doing the no Kings protest outside the capitol building. Building. So we just walked into it. I was exploring the town. I get a picture in front of the Capitol because I have low grade autism. So I get a picture in front of the Capitol and. And so. And we walked this no Kings protest. And I see this Native American guy who's like, but he's trans, like six foot in a dress, like six, four, crazy, you know, thing. And they're going wild. And then I was like, oh. I was like, oh, you're here at this, you know, kings protest. And. And they. And he was like, you know, she, she. Whatever. It's like, yeah. And then I was like, I was like, you go trans. And he was like, oh, yeah. And I said, you scalp it. Like, you know, like a joke. And then he just laughed and gave me a high five. And I was like, oh, see, these guys just. Either he's a paid actor and doesn't really want to be there, or he. Nobody really gives a fuck. Because if you really cared, like Rachel Maddow thinks you would be horrified at that joke. But that's why I said it to just cause a confrontation because we were filming.

[Chris Distefano]

People do get horrified at jokes, though, when you make them like that. You want to go, come on.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

I mean, look, listen, Come on, everybody settle the down.

[Yanni Pappas]

Everybody shut the. If you want to do what's right before you send a text, go to my Family Wizard. Put it in there. Our family Wizard. Watch your tube. Watch your tone, folks. If you're not on our Family wizard, watching Ryan Sickler's YouTube you better. Before you comment on Ryan Sickler's YouTube special tomorrow night, you better put that comment into my family. Our family. Wizard out. Or we'll beat the out of you. I'll know if the tone's off. You will know. Dude, copy and paste, dude, I swear to God, any. And I'm not going to tell her.

[Ryan Sickler]

Messages and paste them in.

[Yanni Pappas]

And I'm not telling my wife, by the way. I'm not telling my wife about this. I'm just going to utilize this tool. She doesn't listen to the podcast. I'm just going to utilize this tool right now. And then, dude, the tone back on every text is going to be on. I'm. I can't believe the. The weapon. You just.

[Ryan Sickler]

It'll be toneless.

[Yanni Pappas]

Toneless. Dude, she's not gonna. And if she still finds ways to get mad, then I will be able to tell a therapist, she's the problem, not me. As I suspected all along.

[Ryan Sickler]

Exactly.

[Chris Distefano]

She's the problem, not me. That's what. That's what the Democrats need to understand. They keep going like, you know, it's fascist king. You're going like, maybe it's you.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, maybe it's you.

[Chris Distefano]

Maybe you're the problem. Yeah, you know, you keep pointing at him, but you'll go like, maybe people don't like you. Yeah, it's like that friend that has no self awareness that comes in is like fucking tries to suck all the oxygen out of the room and everyone stays away from his. And then calls everybody else.

[Ryan Sickler]

An.

[Chris Distefano]

You're like, maybe it's you.

[Yanni Pappas]

You want to say to Democrats, maybe it's the trans person in the mirror. There's man in the mirror.

[Chris Distefano]

And then they keep trying every excuse, like, Nazi thinking. You're going like, okay, you just call Stephen Miller's Nazi, but he's a Jew. So then they go, all right, we got to figure out how he's a Nazi. Like, he's a Jew, though. And then they go, okay, okay. It's all just fucking white supremacists. And you're like, 50% of Latinos voted for him.

[Yanni Pappas]

You're like, okay, sorry.

[Chris Distefano]

And you're like, more blacks voted for him than any other Republican in history. You're going, okay.

[Yanni Pappas]

He'S a king.

[Chris Distefano]

He wants to be. Now the new thing is he's a king. It used to be Nazi. They're trying every fucking thing except just giving us a fucking viable candidate. Yay.

[Ryan Sickler]

Thank you.

[Yanni Pappas]

Thank you.

[Ryan Sickler]

You. It's also wild to just casually throw around Nazi on everything too like what the.

[Chris Distefano]

Well, on X, you can.

[Yanni Pappas]

You can really say that.

[Ryan Sickler]

You can. Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

Oh, there's one.

[Yanni Pappas]

And I'll tell you guys, you know, that's. Yeah. You don't throw that around the Nazi. If you want to see real Nazi stuff, then what you do is you come over to my mother's place. I'll take you down to the basement.

[Ryan Sickler]

You got.

[Chris Distefano]

Mom has.

[Yanni Pappas]

We got some memorabilia from the family.

[Chris Distefano]

Do you.

[Ryan Sickler]

Here's a good one. My daughter, her grandma on her mom's side, passed away, and she was a hoarder, but of the best kind. She had silver, gold, Hummels, you name it, everything. What is it, the savoroski or what? I don't even know this.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

And so she passes away, and her mom has to go up and, like, clean the place out. And they're going through all this, and they find a Nazi spoon.

[Yanni Pappas]

What do you mean, a Nazi spoon?

[Ryan Sickler]

It's got the. Not the swastika. Yeah. Wow. On the spoon she's selling, it's real silver. So I. My daughter tells me, she's like, mom found, like, us a Nazi thing on a spoon. I thought. I was like, oh, your grandma had some Nazi stuff, huh?

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

Tell me more. What else did you find? She's like, nothing. Just that spoon. I was like, that's probably the first thing out of the box.

[Yanni Pappas]

I was like, yeah, right.

[Ryan Sickler]

So they took it to the silver guy, and he goes, we're just gonna burn it down anyway. So they just burned it down and gave her the silver money. Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, it could have been a Indian peace sign. That's where he got it from. It's actually the symbol for peace.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

You know that swastika.

[Chris Distefano]

There's a lot of Catholic churches that still have the swastika, like, in the flooring tile.

[Yanni Pappas]

One of my friends.

[Chris Distefano]

One of my friends like a peace sign.

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, one of my friends bought a brownstone, this is recently, like a couple years ago, and was fully gut renovating it. And behind one of the layers of wall, the brownstone was built, like, in the early 1900s. There's a huge swastika on the wall, but it's the peace sign. So it's like an Indian family that was living there, and it's.

[Ryan Sickler]

It's.

[Yanni Pappas]

It that Hitler just, you know, made it something that it's not. Same thing with. The same thing with the pirate cross and bones, like, you know, like. And that means, like, poison and, like, death. That's. That before the Nazis. That wasn't associated with that at All. It's just the Nazis had. That was their flag when they were coming down to battle. And they associated that with death.

[Chris Distefano]

And the oriole on the Baltimore Orioles originally was just like a. A white supremacist son. Yeah, I'm totally making that up.

[Ryan Sickler]

I know you are.

[Yanni Pappas]

By the way, I want to say Baltimore Ravens.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Name, I think in sports because they took. First of all, I love purple. They took and they took Edgar Allan Poe, who wrote the Raven, that they. That what a great name.

[Ryan Sickler]

And then embodied that with a defensive team that was, you know, dark and it was well done.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yes. They have a lot of black.

[Ryan Sickler]

It was a.

[Chris Distefano]

From that area. Right.

[Ryan Sickler]

I. He. Is he. I mean, I don't think he's born there, but he died there.

[Yanni Pappas]

He died on the street there.

[Ryan Sickler]

Died there. I actually went to. We used to field trip. That used to be a field trip in school. We go to Edgar Allen Po's grave. And I didn't know it at the time. I'm in middle school. There's so there's change all over the markers. I'm taking it. All right. And just my friend's like, what are you doing? I'm like, it's just free. Yeah. And then the guy says, this is people's coins. Like, he didn't see me take it, but he's up in front of the group and he's like, so the coins you're seeing everywhere, people's money, it's for good luck. And then we'll take that at the end and we'll donate. I was like, God damn. I'm over there just dumping.

[Yanni Pappas]

Dumping it. When you dumped it on. Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

But they had old fucking. Like there's skeletons and shit places. It's wild.

[Yanni Pappas]

Now the Baltimore Ravens, unfortunately, at this point in history are playing awful. I mean, they're literally jets level bad. And they started out, I mean, possible super bowl favorites. So I mean, why. How does that feel? Can you believe this?

[Ryan Sickler]

It goes from the Orioles in playoffs last year to Dog, which really was like, oh, fuck. I. All right, that's okay. We got the Ravens. Let's get through this long ass baseball season. We'll get to the Ravens. I saw this picture the other day. It was about eight minutes left, I think in the fourth quarter and we're winning by 15. And it's frozen on that time. And it said, imagine telling a Ravens fan at this point in the game, they're going to be one in five. And I was like, oh, yeah. So I mean, people want to blame the injuries But I'll. I listen. This is the other thing I've gotten so sick of, of the. The festival and the Charlie Kirk and the Austin, the LA comedy. I. I'm so sick of everything. I have not listened to podcasts. I don't listen to anything. I go to the Odyssey app and I listen to 1057, the fan. Local Baltimore sports radio.

[Yanni Pappas]

Smart.

[Chris Distefano]

That's what I've been doing, dude. I've been going.

[Ryan Sickler]

That's what I. Every day. Yeah, every day.

[Yanni Pappas]

What if I just fall to it?

[Ryan Sickler]

And I walk this particular neighborhood for an hour every day, but I walk the alleys so I can smoke my joints while I do it, because I'm respectful. I don't want your neighborhood sidewalk smoking my weed. I go to the alleys and I just listen to local Baltimore guys call in. Do you remember Michael or the Blind side?

[Yanni Pappas]

Oh, sure. Tackle.

[Ryan Sickler]

Our D coordinator is Zach. Or right now, okay? These people will call him like, we need to fire Mike. Or now. And I'm laughing my ass off like, you got the wrong and hot dude. This is my comedy right now. This is what I listen to. And under. Unfortunately, we're not listening to, like, we're number one. And then this. And it is local.

[Yanni Pappas]

Local news. It is. What?

[Chris Distefano]

What?

[Yanni Pappas]

We've all reached it. Because I do the same thing. Yanna. Say the same thing. All of it. It's called being a white man of a certain age. What that's what happens is you get a white man over your 40s. That's what I find myself doing. Like, I. I had to drive two hours on Sunday, had my whole family in the car. And I've never done this. Normally I'll let my daughters listen to K Pop and the Demon Hunter soundtrack, or Jasmine wants to listen to 97.9 Omega or Bad Bun Funny and talk to you about it. And you know all that. So. And. But I said, you know what? I said, this is my car. I make the car payments. We got to sit in two hours of traffic. The Giants are playing, and I put on AM radio and I let them yell and talk to me in Spanish. I said, go on your iPads. I don't give a shit. I'm listening to the game, and I. I let my family sit and listen to the Giants blow the game in the fourth quarter. And I said, this is what it is, girls.

[Ryan Sickler]

Oh, that's the one.

[Yanni Pappas]

And you know what's crazy? Oh, yeah, it was awful just on Sunday. And what you know what's interesting, too, is there's something about just listening to the radio. By the end. By 20 minutes in, my whole family was listening to the games. When. When Jackson Dart threw the interception, jazz going, shit. Why'd he do that? Why'd he do that? No, be any two. And so. And so I was like, okay, because, you know, if you go back to the basics of anything, like the power went out in a hotel. We were staying. Staying at once, actually. Where you got married. Oheka Castle. We stayed there. I was doing a show at the Paramount, Long Island. We were staying out there at this castle. It was with the family. And the power goes out. So we have books in my room. Each room. It's old school hotel. And we sat down with literal. Like, all we had was. They had little candlelights that the hotel staff came and gave people. And we read a book to my kids for like an hour. And they loved it. They want. They ask us every. Still there was three years ago. Read us a book. Read us a book. So, you know, yes, it's easy to give and the stimulation of the iPad and all that, and I definitely do it. But they want to go back to the basics. Listening to something on the radio. Comedy on the radio was the biggest thing ever. And I bet you it'll go back to that. I bet you if we put out a comedy skit on the radio, it would crush.

[Ryan Sickler]

I agree. My daughter's mother actually loves Brian Regan and just introduced her to Brian Regan.

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, he's my favorite comic.

[Ryan Sickler]

I took her brother to see Brian Regan. I said, we're not asking favors. We're not doing any of that. We're going to the fucking theater. It was the Coach Kodak where they do the Oscars now. And I said, we're buying tickets like regular fans, and we're gonna go sit. We're gonna go watch Brian Regan. He was crushed it Gaffigan. I've introduced her to.

[Yanni Pappas]

Right. Clean Cut. Well, this we were talking about.

[Ryan Sickler]

Here she comes to the studio with me. She hears a lot of it, dude.

[Yanni Pappas]

But we were talking about how even though, like, you know, we can all be edgy and do that clean is what it's not even doing it for. You know, trying to sell more tickets. It's like, actually what people want. Even people who are our age who are used to depravity, they want to listen to the clean, good stuff. Jesse and I were just talking to Sabrina Carpenter. You know, she's great. You know, sells out stadiums. Sure. But, like, my daughter's. Your daughter's same age, too. Like, her music that's what I'm saying. So I took her, I took Delilah, my daughter to see her and it was a great show. But she's so like hyper sexual. Sabrina Carpenter, where it's like, you know, and then you're sitting there in Madison Square Garden with your young daughter, you know, and I'm trying to hide a boner, I'm sweating and I'm like, what the hell am I supposed to do? And then you realize, well, Taylor swift though is 10 times bigger than all of them. Why? Because she doesn't hyper sexualize anything and she's pretty clean. Same thing with the comedians. Like it's not. I know some people do it for, you know, just to make money, but the people do it from a genuine place. They just move that more people want to go sit there. I mean even me, I'm 41. And there's times when it's just me and Jaz in the car and like a rap song will just be like so over the top that we just change it. Cuz I'm like, I don't want to listen to. And there's no kids in the car, you know.

[Chris Distefano]

I think that's an age thing.

[Yanni Pappas]

It's just an age thing.

[Chris Distefano]

Cuz when you're younger you want more charge stuff.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah. But now as we get older, I don't want you just.

[Ryan Sickler]

Well also we're the generation that grew up without it and then with it. Like remember if you remember Tipper Gore was doing the parental advisory. That sticker that made you buy the album. You wanted to hear that. So we been so conditioned to it. Like the 60s. Nah. Elvis in the 50s, all that like they thought gyrating wasn't really like wet ass. Like that's why that's what it is. That is wild.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, we're in a super.

[Ryan Sickler]

To go from, you know, there to there. That's crazy.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, we got a supercharged generation. We got wet ass and Columbine. That's why that's how we grew up. Yeah, supercharged dude.

[Chris Distefano]

Well, we've gone all the way at point this, this point. Yeah, not all the way with it.

[Yanni Pappas]

It's going to go back, I bet. I guarantee you the wholesome is going to go back. I'm almost, I don't know when, I don't know if it's going to be next year, 10 years from now, but it absolutely will go back.

[Ryan Sickler]

I think there's going to be a push back on social media from maybe, maybe our grandkids generation at some point these, these people Who've had it forever, going to be like, man, this well, my causing so many problems. And they're going to be. I'm all I'm getting off of.

[Yanni Pappas]

My stepson doesn't have it. He doesn't want it. He's like, doesn't want it at all. 15. He doesn't want it.

[Chris Distefano]

But here's the irony. Like, Sabrina Carpenter is hypersexual. She's doing.

[Yanni Pappas]

She get cracked open.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah. But the kids are also cleaner. The kids are doing less. Right. They don't drink as much. They don't as much.

[Yanni Pappas]

They. They don't go out.

[Chris Distefano]

They don't go out.

[Ryan Sickler]

So can't afford it.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, I guess.

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, they don't want to be out. My stepson would rather he just sits home and he's. He's not depressed at all. He's fine. He wants to be home.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

That's. You're doing a good job. Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

So I don't know if it's that, cuz when you think about it, it's like a lot of times the entertainment's clean, but the. The society's not great.

[Yanni Pappas]

Right.

[Chris Distefano]

So sometimes it's like vice versa. Sometimes, like, hearing the dirty stuff when the society's good is like a escape.

[Yanni Pappas]

Do you know, in local television in. In, you know, 1938 Germany, you could not curse or have anything and they were nipple. Nothing.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah. So it's like that.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

You know, it's like that.

[Yanni Pappas]

That we got to go back to that. Well.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

Whenever someone's like, super clean or family friendly, I'm going like, that's not human.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

So what's in the basement?

[Yanni Pappas]

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, here's where we keep it friendly and clean here. But if you really want to hear debauchery, go to patreon.com history. That's where the real garbage happens. And you can be a real scumbag over there. You don't have to live in this filtered, clean world. You could just be a real dirty piece of. Yeah.

[Ryan Sickler]

Do I have to do it right now?

[Yanni Pappas]

No, no, no. Hear them out.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Identify as U.S. citizen Rodriguez. World War II, but make it gay.

[Ryan Sickler]

I like that.

[Yanni Pappas]

I got gefilte pussy pics on my phone. Chrissy D Hotel Washcloth, AKA Rachel Dolezal.

[Chris Distefano]

These are good ones.

[Yanni Pappas]

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, these are great.

[Yanni Pappas]

Okay. Okay.

[Chris Distefano]

These are great. This is going to be tough. I think Syndrome of a Down is the first one we get rid of.

[Yanni Pappas]

Syndrome of a Down doesn't hold a. Okay.

[Ryan Sickler]

Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Now what do we think of Osama bin Laden's broken vcr?

[Chris Distefano]

I think Jesse exclusively Loves that.

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, he had porn on it.

[Ryan Sickler]

Get a lot of porn tapes.

[Chris Distefano]

I know.

[Yanni Pappas]

What do you think? Does it hold up on this list?

[Chris Distefano]

But great though.

[Yanni Pappas]

Chance.

[Chris Distefano]

Any other day.

[Yanni Pappas]

Chancellor of Rim Jobs, AKA Shitler.

[Ryan Sickler]

I mean, that's solid.

[Yanni Pappas]

That's solid. Keep it around for now. Okay. Who keeps downloading Grinder on my phone?

[Ryan Sickler]

This is one of my faves.

[Yanni Pappas]

Okay. So that we have Shabbat Shalom. I got gefilted pussy pics. I'm my phone.

[Ryan Sickler]

I love that one. I do too.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, we can't that.

[Chris Distefano]

This is going to be tough.

[Yanni Pappas]

Chrissy D's hotel washcloth, AKA Rachel do.

[Chris Distefano]

All got to keep that around, even inside. We got to keep it around World.

[Yanni Pappas]

[Yanni Pappas]

Now I identify as a U.S. citizen. Rodriguez.

[Chris Distefano]

The two. What I would vote for to Drexler would be the last two, the Shitler and the Grinder.

[Yanni Pappas]

What do we think of that?

[Chris Distefano]

That's what I would.

[Yanni Pappas]

Because we have a lot of gay ones. So Grindr is good. It's funny, but it's kind of like an Asians are bad drivers joke at this point for this podcast, it's got to really blow your mind. And that's a great joke, but we've had so many Grinders, so many gay.

[Ryan Sickler]

Ones then that taking that into consideration, it's got.

[Yanni Pappas]

And Chancellor of Rim Jobs, AK Shitler falls into that category.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

Good stuff. Any other day.

[Yanni Pappas]

Now it's just a tough.

They were around better ones. Jordan. He was the heir of Jordan. Then we got the LeBron James. They come out early in the list and they live up to the hype. This is when we're in this situation, this is what you call an Olympic game situation.

[Yanni Pappas]

[Chris Distefano]

Everyone's going home with a medal. These are three medalists. You're all winning, but there's got to be one goal. But everyone here deserve. Could win. Win the gold.

Funny and creative to me. But I am with Ryan. I think I identify as. That's just such a good one, too. So I'm going to. I'm going to go with Ryan there. Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Okay. Nick. I like Fish and Rachel Delaware. You like that? Yeah. Because this is a torn vote and because Nick can't call hung jury and Nick can't vote for a name he created, which is. Identifies you as this Rodriguez.

[Chris Distefano]

Right? Right.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yes.

[Chris Distefano]

What do you like?

[Yanni Pappas]

I got to be honest, and it's because of my. My Spanish brothers and sisters. As you know, I do run a Spanish household. I like, identify as a US Citizen Rodriguez. It made me laugh. I think it's a chicken finger that's also a winner then that.

[Chris Distefano]

That's what it is. My vote doesn't matter. Yeah.

[Yanni Pappas]

Oh, really? Is that.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, I think it's 1, 2, 3.

[Yanni Pappas]

Yeah. All right. 2. That's what I like. Yeah.

[Chris Distefano]

I like to filter fish. It made me have the hardest butt.

[Yanni Pappas]

So congratulations. If you go to history is pod.com or histrion is his back dot com. You are the PPW, the pseudo penis of the week. You are the winner. I identify US Citizen Rodriguez. Congratulations. One go watch Ryan sickness.

[Ryan Sickler]

What do they win? Can I ask you?

[Yanni Pappas]

Well, so we're supposed to be sending them shirts, but we're a little backlogged on that.

[Chris Distefano]

So we get to have name up in lights. On our website. And then I think what we're going.

[Yanni Pappas]

To do, we got to send them their shirt.

[Chris Distefano]

What we'll do is like at some point, we'll do a year at end of the year kind of, and then we'll figure out who's the ppw, which is pseudo penis of the week. Of the year.

[Yanni Pappas]

Of the year. And then maybe they'll get a shirt.

[Chris Distefano]

Yeah, maybe they'll get a shot.

[Ryan Sickler]

Get all the shirts. Everybody's shirt.
