La Bear
Oh, yeah.
Matt McCusker
I don't want them getting chilly and frio in here. Dude, I saw. I just saw a thing. I don't know. I don't think it'll. It'll break into mainstream news, but apparently this guy was. He had like a plus size appreciator community and he called it paradise. Like pear. Pear shaped paradise.
Sean
Love it.
Matt McCusker
But apparently all wasn't well in Paradise. Apparently he was getting a little handsy, so he had set up this, like, community where plus sized women could just be comfortable and chilling poles in their bikinis. And I think he was getting a little handsy. I feel like there's been trouble in paradise.
Nate
I feel like that's what they signed up for paradise for you go to. Well, he.
Matt McCusker
It was his paradise. Oh, just him and babes, I think. I. I don't know. I just. I saw a second and I just thought it was so funny that he had started paradise and then the starter of paradise, allegedly, it's coming out that he might have been engaging in some unsavory practices.
Nate
Oh, he definitely might get my gut.
Matt McCusker
You come up with paradise, you go with paradise.
La Bear
By paradise.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, I mean he was king of the fats. Yeah, he was king of the fats. He set it up where he was like, yeah, I think it's important we all.
La Bear
My paradise would be spelled with pog first. Pogadice.
Matt McCusker
But imagine if you. Imagine if you were the God of pogadice, how long could you keep that chill of like. I just think it's really great that you guys all came out here and you're feeling. Then you get in the pool.
La Bear
The pool is my drool.
Nate
Damn.
Matt McCusker
Just you doing chicken fights against pogs. Although you'd have to build the quads up, dude.
La Bear
Yeah, I can't.
Matt McCusker
You can't let a pog feel you go at all.
La Bear
They would never do.
Matt McCusker
You can't struggle and you can't. Dude, it's. Have you ever. Have you ever, like, had a chick be like, pick me up. And you pick him up and go, never Once you can't grunt, you can't. You got to throw all your bodybuilding training out the window and just be like, you gotta act like you're just like lifting air.
La Bear
Full ground squat. You gotta go.
Nate
When a lady asks me to pick them up, I go, no, no,
Sean
Planet Fitness, you need the lunk alarm. When you pick up a big lady.
Matt McCusker
You cannot lunk, dude. Well, the problem is babes watch all these viral challenges. We're like, look, he picked up his whole family with one arm and it's like, dude, get the out of here with that.
La Bear
I was gonna bring up that. You saw that new challenge?
Matt McCusker
I've seen all of them, dude.
Nate
Seen a guy just carrying a lady, like up steep st. Yeah, dude.
Matt McCusker
There's a lot of challenges, a lot of lady carrying challenges. My thing is like, ladies, chill. You don't want it. You don't want the truth. You don't want to hear your guy go off the steps. Dude, we threw my back out. They're not going to feel good after that mcl.
Nate
Yeah, your knee goes while you're like. You power through but your knee just goes.
Matt McCusker
That's how you get trouble in Paradise. Once you start being like, can you carry me up the steps? Be like, we haven't bit the apple, we're good, we're chill. Put on the leather weightlifting belt. Put on my knee braces. Chalk my hands.
Nate
Yeah, I would love to know what the starting level of the pool at paradise was before the babes got in. And it just.
Matt McCusker
Oh no, it's like a, it's like a glass with ice cubes in it. Let's get the, let's get the rundown on pair dice.
La Bear
What do you see, Sean?
Matt McCusker
I mean I was deep in the news trying to find, to talk about. I was like, I'm almost positive nobody knows about Paradise. Oh, here we go. Paradise is an online body positive. I can also produce and podcast. Paradise is an online body positive community for plus size women that devolved into severe allegations of manipulation, exploitation and coercive dynamics. Centered in Las Vegas. Run by creator Stefan Wilhelmy, the group is subject of the television documentary Big Girls Wanted escaping Paradise.
Nate
Well, that's got to go on my list.
La Bear
I think that's on Netflix.
Nate
Big Girls want it.
Sean
It looks like it's an abc.
Matt McCusker
Abc, bro. It's an ABC doc.
La Bear
Sydney plus.
Nate
That's gonna be real matter of fact.
Matt McCusker
Well, I mean, you know these, these networks, if you boil it down to dollars, like, you know these like tell all investigative journalism documentaries were like, here's a villain. And here's like how it worked out. There's teams looking for these things. So that's on hbo, Max.
La Bear
Hell yeah.
Matt McCusker
That's gonna be a good. Escaping paradise is going to be a good one. Yeah. Especially if you have a BBW yourself. You go, I can't believe it mistreated them.
Nate
I would never be.
Matt McCusker
I would never. If I got entrusted with all these plus size angels. Although it is, it is funny you're saying it would be like when you put a lot of ice cubes in a glass and it just like
Nate
also
Matt McCusker
imagine getting the wave pool going in the pool. You get the fucking. You guys, you got the, you got the raft. You start getting the waves, all your beautiful pairs of just bouncing around.
Nate
You just stand on the side.
Matt McCusker
My thing is like what? I want to know what happened. Yeah, I want to know what happened, dude. Like what happened in paradise anymore? I mean, dude, I saw the, like the clips and it is just. It's big babes and bikinis in the pool.
Nate
Like, I don't know. I don't want to talk.
Matt McCusker
I don't. Huge babes. They're hefty babes. Yeah. That's the thing too. Let me see if I can find dude there. I. I just saw a little bit obese babes.
Nate
Two big giant babes laying next to each other tanning. Like, think of how nice it would feel to just lay across both of
Matt McCusker
them like a dog babe. I'm talking purely t tactile. Imagine the pool. There's, I don't know, nine plus sized babes.
Nate
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
Two of them kind of sandwich you for just a second. You, you'd be. That's like a Frankenstein machine. You'd be like, I need to get back in between whatever that space was I was in. I need to get back in there. Just the feel of being like, oh my God. Yeah.
Nate
I'm surrounded by baby.
Matt McCusker
It's like a whole body orgasm. You just get completely squished and fat. I. I don't know.
La Bear
I'm surrounded by jelly. Yeah.
Matt McCusker
What do you say? Is it bad? I don't know.
Sean
Well, I don't want to be rude, so. But the, the babes in paradise. I think pear is sort of a pear shaped kind term. They're more like kumquats or.
Matt McCusker
Kumquats are tiny. Oh, tiny.
Sean
Maybe like a mango.
Matt McCusker
You think it's mango dice or you think it's watermelon dice? It might be watermelon. I was going to say from the artwork I saw. These are mean I mean, know, these might be plus plus. Yeah, yeah. No, they're big babes. Let's be honest, huh?
Nate
Sbbw, the super fans super bbw.
Matt McCusker
It might be sbbw. My thing. I'm Body Paws. It's. I think it's a. It's going against Body Paws to trying to say pairs. I'm with you, Sean. Be like the merely pear shaped. That's like mom. That's like frumpy mom. Where it's like, oh, yeah, I had a couple kids paired outs. These are big, beautiful women. Yeah. That's when I'm saying I'm getting trapped between them in a pool.
La Bear
Sad idea. Dude, you might want to pitch this Netflix. Dude, I don't even know. But like, you know the movie Heavyweights? Yes, you do it. But with this.
Matt McCusker
Bbw.
Sean
Yeah.
La Bear
BB Dubs.

La Bear
The movie Heavyweights.
Matt McCusker
And then I, through my training regimen, lift all the fattest women ever make their day. Yeah. And I become the king of Paradise.
La Bear
Yeah. You're the Matrix.
Matt McCusker
My wife is cool with it. Because I'm being body positive,
La Bear

La Bear
Stefan's not a creep name. Stefan Urkel. Dude, that was the best. Cool. Urkel.
Sean
The goal.
La Bear
That's creeper. That's cool. Or cool.
Sean
It's not to attack, inflame, attack, or make conclusions for the reader. It's intended to present a documented account, organized chronology, so that interested readers can review the available materials, inform their own understanding.
Matt McCusker
Okay, so what the. Does this guy have receipts or not? Dude,
Nate
that sounds like it's the receipts page.

Okay, you got to get a true crime podcast. You got a good true crime voice.
Matt McCusker
You got. It has a really good true crime. Is there any. Is there any juicy deets? That's what I need.
Sean
I'm sifting through the deets during. So it's been going on 2020. Let me sift through it and sift
Matt McCusker
through and jump back in. But, yeah, I thought you guys might enjoy the fact that there was trouble in paradise. Dude, I. I'm trying to escape paradise myself. I've been. In a month, I've been in a challenge with two of my friends where it's as many. You track it on the apple watch. Whoever burns the most calories by the month of June wins. Yeah, I'm up to. I'm nine days in, and I've burned, I think, 11, 000 calories in nine days.
La Bear
That's nice, dude.
Matt McCusker
It's. First of all, you would think I would. Like. It's so hard to get rid of fat.
Nate
Yeah, yeah.
Matt McCusker
Like, I've. I've been to the point where, like, I. I really, like, I need to chill. Like, I'm getting. I feel like ill right now. I've worked out so much. You're telling me shred. That's what I'm saying. Give me the shred. Where's the shred? Dude, it takes to lose a pound of fat. It takes, like, I think, like, 4, 000 calories.
La Bear
4,000 calories.
Matt McCusker
You know what it takes to burn 4, 000 calories? Yeah.
Nate
My record on the elliptical. 500. Huh? That's in my record on the elliptical. Is like 500.
Matt McCusker
500. Dude, if you were to run hard and like give it your all, you might burn 500 calories. Yeah, that's insane. You need to burn 3, 500 more calories. You'd have to do. What is that? Six all out running sessions to try to fight down one pound while not taking in enough food to set to offset that. Such things. Such. What are you you laughing at? Do you think paradise is funny?
Sean
No, no, no. I just wanted to clarify that. So the allegations were made by a tik tocker named Piggy Stardust, which was a funny name.
La Bear
Oh, Stardust. Tik Tok. I'm sorry, guys.
Matt McCusker
Fired up.
Sean
Stefan is suing Piggy for liable, slander and defamation. So I wanted to clarify that. Everything we've said on this broadcast is
Matt McCusker
alleged legend for sure. An opinion opinion of Piggy Stardust.
Sean
Right?
Matt McCusker
What we got with piggy?
La Bear
Well, she's 29, non binary ASD, paranova peace sign, BLM. Trans lives matter, LGBTQ plus.
Matt McCusker
Okay, I can see this lady.
La Bear
She's on Ozempic now. She's not as f. What?
Matt McCusker
Yo, that's fucking pissing me off, dude. That's body pos.
Nate

Matt McCusker
Ooh, villain move. So she went.
La Bear
This is her.
Matt McCusker
Oh boy, the lady looks like. Hit the mic.
La Bear
Sorry.
Matt McCusker
Give her. Oh man. I don't give a fuck about this lady's car. Jesus Christ. I thought he's updating me on Paradise. Just wanted to let you guys know I have a car now.
La Bear
I'm gonna go back. It's 2020, right?
Matt McCusker
Piggy Stardust. Is she still even Piggy Stardust or she just Stardust?
La Bear
It's miss.
Nate
It's miss Stardust now.
La Bear
It's Margie Marie.
Nate
Yo, to get so fat becomes your identity. It's so funny. Just call me Piggy.
Matt McCusker
So does that one have no plus? I. I mean, I, you know.
La Bear
Well, she's not plus sized anymore. She's not worried about it, I don't think.
Matt McCusker
What the hell?
La Bear
Yeah, I'm trying to get back crazy
Matt McCusker
to drop into paradise and just.
Sean
That's crazy. There are screenshots attached to the.
Matt McCusker
Oh, no.
Sean
Conversations and messages with Alexandria Pork Chop Gillen. They got good names.
Matt McCusker
They got really good names.
Sean
There's camera footage. So basically, I think he put all of his court evidence on the website on the allegations page.
Matt McCusker
So Paradise Prime. Preserve Paradise. It's a little Margaritaville. So. But that babe was after him. But then she seems exempicked. Does seem like a. I mean, given the tags you gave me on her profile. Seems like she's kicking up dust online every now and again.
La Bear
She's a dust kicker.
Matt McCusker
To be a bit of a dust kicker. Septum Pearson. I've always said I'd never get. I rarely. I should say rarely get along with septum piercers.
Nate
And she had, like, a big septum pierce. Like, it wasn't like, a little. It was.
Matt McCusker
The bigger it is. At least we get along, dude.
Nate
It was like, full hoop ring. Like, it was hoop earring. It was.
Matt McCusker
I don't know what it is, dude. Our. Our. I'm just not aligned every time. And I have nothing. Nothing against them. It's just every time. I like.
Nate
I even like the way it looks sometimes, but it's always attached.
Matt McCusker
I don't.
Nate
That's because, you know, it's the. It's an op.
Matt McCusker
I know. It lays underneath.
La Bear
Exactly.
Matt McCusker
It looks like the enemy flag.
La Bear
They have the opposite values. You, like, almost completely atheist. Yeah, I, like, don't care about family.
Matt McCusker
True that. I like a little nose. A little nose ring here, Ally. As soon as I see the septum, I'm like, we're gonna have a problem. You and I are gonna fight. We are gonna battle. Literally. We are. We're. We're online on every single thing you could possibly imagine.
La Bear
I saw some. You guys hear about what's happening with cbs? No. They fired Chris. He was the anchor for their, like, new show. I don't. I think it was actually 60 Minutes. It was the anchor for 60 Minutes. They fired him.
Matt McCusker
Chris. Who the fuck is Chris?
La Bear
Chris Crawley or something. I can't remember. What's her name? Lindy? Barry Weiss.
Matt McCusker
Barry Weiss. I remember that lady.
La Bear
She. She runs CBS now.
Sean
What?
La Bear
Yeah. And she fired. She's fired. She's trying to make CBS sellable, and they hired her because they're gonna sell
Matt McCusker
it to fucking, like, buzzfeed.
La Bear
Paramount. Oh, that's. There's a company called Sky. That's why Colbert got fired, right? Yeah, yeah, because he called them out for. For. For was bribing Trump so that Skydance can buy Paramount.
Matt McCusker
Wait, who bribed Trump?
La Bear
Skydance, the company for. So they can buy Paramount because Trump's in charge of the FCC and they want to try to keep it away from being a man. Okay, Monopoly. Oh, so they fired Colbert because he was yapping, and they kept saying he didn't make any money, which doesn't make any sense. They sold his spot to Byron Allen. So, like, now the 11 o' clock spot is a paid spot for Byron Allen. He's paying to be.
Matt McCusker
Who is Byron Allen? I saw that guy took over Colbert Spot Comic Unleashed.
La Bear
He owns the Weather Channel.
Nate
Yeah, he's like a comic.
Matt McCusker
Oh, what, that guy owns the Weather Channel? Bro, I. I heard that guy owns the Weather Channel. I kind of love that he's him.
Nate
I go from just doing stand up
Matt McCusker
to you own the Weather Channel. I didn't know who Byron Allen was, and then someone was just telling me the comics Unleashed guy owns a weather Channel. And I was like, what a fucking beast. Such a foresight to buy the Weather Channel worth nothing.
La Bear
Yeah, yeah. And now.
Matt McCusker
So what's he talking about? Is he talking weather?
La Bear
It's just Comics Unleashed. He just does a show. It's like an old show he brought back.
Matt McCusker
I want to see him talk weather on there. Like, I got to talk.
La Bear
Brian Allen doing Al Roker.
Matt McCusker
I mean, I, I believe it that a lot of people weren't watching Stephen Colbert.
La Bear
I think a lot of people.
Nate
Really?
Matt McCusker
Yeah, I don't think so.
La Bear
And then even if they're watching it, they're. They're making Money off the YouTube, off the Twitter.
Nate
That's what I.
Matt McCusker
Okay. Because that's what I'm saying. Those late night shows, I don't think that many people tune in, but then the clips online do well.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
But even still, though, I don't think it, like, like, how much do they have? Like the. Whatever.
La Bear
They definitely probably have the.
Matt McCusker
Yeah. What were the. I don't. I don't think they were great. I mean, I'm sure people watch.
La Bear
But like, but like, what's great on TV right now?
Matt McCusker
Nothing. Everything's streaming.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
If you, if you were to be like, if you were to challenge me to try to find and watch Stephen Cole or any show like that at night time. Yeah, I would. It would take me an hour to research and figure out how to even, like actually on tv.
La Bear
All you got to do is go like this.
Matt McCusker
But how do you get the channel? I don't. I don't have Compton.
La Bear
I don't.
Matt McCusker
I don't have cable.
La Bear
Yeah, right, dude.
Matt McCusker
So it's like I, I wouldn't even. I couldn't even tell you how to watch that. I was trying to get the spurs game when we were watching, when we were doing stand up this weekend. Like, that took me. Yeah, that was tough.
La Bear
Csbn.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, that's Disney. Apparently. Since I have Disney, I was able then. But then they put on YouTube TV and it works.
La Bear
Everything.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, pretty much does On ABC too. Yeah. What, let me see, what was Colbert's ratings? I don't, I don't, you know, I'm nothing against the guy. I just, I don't think they were. I don't think anyone watches except for geezers.
Sean
His finale recorded a series high of 6.74 million.
Matt McCusker
Well, shut the up.
Sean
Live plus same day viewers.
La Bear
What's the average though?
Sean
The average, Let me look that up.
La Bear
If it's less than 2 million, go ahead, cancel it. But if it's more than that, you
Nate
think less than 2 is still cancelable?
La Bear
Yeah.
Nate
Like, what if it's like 1.5?
Matt McCusker
I know, it's pretty good.
La Bear
Yeah, actually, if it's less than 1, it's canceled.
Matt McCusker
My thing is, if you have a YouTube thing, if you're doing a mill, I, I mean, I instantly take it back if that's the case. I thought it, I thought the for real was like a thousand people watching. Because I don't know a single person who stays up and watches any late night show. I don't, I can't, I don't know a single person has been like, oh, I was watching this last night on TV at 11pm I think they get a lot. Are they including web views with that too?
Nate
I'm not sure.
Sean
I'm not sure. But it says his average, his average viewers per night hovered around 2.5 million.
Matt McCusker
That's good.
La Bear
You shouldn't be canceled.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, that's pretty good.
La Bear
Yeah, it's just scam. He's getting fogging.
Matt McCusker
Well, even if you had, if you had a thing on YouTube that had 700,000, you know, views every week, every. Still make a lot of money every day. Every day is crazy. Yeah.
La Bear
Yeah. Because Colbert's on every day.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, you're right. That's pretty nuts. I had no idea the viewership was still rocking that hard.
La Bear
And then he got fucking. Yeah, everyone.
Nate
And he probably still had YouTube money because I think they do show like clips on YouTube. YouTube money coming in big time.
Matt McCusker
I, I thought for sure it was in like honestly like tens of thousands or like.
La Bear
No, dude.
Nate
So he was just good background noise. Like I used to walk dogs. I would put on like, I would put on whatever. That, that kind of.
Matt McCusker
That's crazy.
Nate
Nothing or Rogan or.
La Bear
Nice to go to sleep too.
Matt McCusker
For sure now. Dude, I, I like, I listen, I listen to like AI Slop when I go to sleep. I got tricked. I didn't know I'd watch these videos on YouTube. It's like fall asleep to all of St. Augustine's writings ever. And I just put it on. I pass out. And then I looked it up. I'm like, this is all AI. Yeah. It' AI summary. Some guy gave an AI voice. I like, God damn it. I've been getting tricked by a AI slob.
Nate
If you invest your time in making AI slop, there's bags to be made. It just doesn't feel good.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, he doesn't. The videos get, like, 30. They got hundreds of thousands of views. And I. I looked it up in the very end of the thing, and it was, like, generated by AI, blah, blah, blah. Because you can get. You could. I could do it right now. I could be like, hey, write up a summary of any historical figure and then you feed it to another one. Like, hey, do, like, get, like, a nice voice acting or voice. And then it's like, bam, you have a. Yeah. Vid.
Nate
Then just get it to clip whatever visuals you want to be.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, that's.
La Bear
Yeah. You make one where you make the thing and you go to one where you're like, review this. And then you go to one where you're like, let's do the audio.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, no, I. I got. Because I was listening. I'm like, man, this guy knows his stuff. Then I read the description. I was like, mother freaker. Because there is something about it that I really. I don't know. When I hear it, I'm like. It makes me not want to listen to them. Not even on, like a, you know, like, moral thing of, like, this is wrong. I just go like, something about it.
Nate
It feels wrong.
Matt McCusker
You know, it feels like when I play the computer on a video game and I'm like, why am I doing this? I'm playing the computer. I'm playing against the computer. And I go, this is dumb. I feel. I just feel so alone. That's what it is. Like, I feel so lonely. I go, man, yeah.
La Bear
Do you know if you're averaging 2.5 million viewers a day, that's bigger than, like, every big TV show?
Matt McCusker
No, apparently not. Because they. What are the other ones? They didn't cancel.
Sean
It's not bigger than Gutfeld.
Nate
You.
Sean
The thing about that is Gutfeld's at a different time slot. It's earlier.
La Bear
He's in prime time.
Sean
Yeah. But he averages 3.3 mil. He's the highest.
La Bear
Average, 700. That's still, though.
Matt McCusker
Like, Colbert was averaging 2.5 million.
La Bear
And gut feels three point.
Sean
That's what the Google says.
La Bear
They're like, right there. They're neck and neck.
Nate
That's almost a meal, but still close. Like it's still. Neither one's cancelable.
La Bear
Neither one.
Matt McCusker
I'm still in awe that there's a million people watching either of these shows.
La Bear
I think, I bet, I mean, it
Nate
could be a hundred percent of the viewership in New York City. You still have like leftover people.
La Bear
I bet it's the same people watching both.
Matt McCusker
No way to get the out of here.
La Bear
I bet there's some crossover.
Matt McCusker
You think my parents stop watching Gutfeld and talk. To say, absolutely not even happening. They don't even know it's on then. Dude, if you watch Gutfeld, you don't even. You probably haven't seen Stephen Colbert in years.
La Bear
And that's 2.5 million separate people who could, like, who just got fucked for no reason.
Matt McCusker
They're going to watch Byron now. They're going to be, oh, you get Byron.
La Bear
They're going to. They're going to fucking Kimmel.
Sean
Byron's falling off the.
Nate
The stand up.
Sean
Big drop in viewership since Byron has taken over.
La Bear
Yeah.
Nate
Because it's just the stand up now
La Bear
because yes, Comics Unleashed. Nobody wants to watch that.
Matt McCusker
But it's like he pays.
La Bear
He knows he has to pay for the spot. He's paying for the spot. Bros we know are on the show and we don't want to watch him.
Matt McCusker
Oh, so it is. I thought it was. I thought it was stand up interviewed, but it's not.
La Bear
No, it's like, well, all right, wait, here it is. He's like, matt, I hear you got some children.
Matt McCusker
Ah, yeah.
La Bear
Like that's all the show is.
Matt McCusker
And then you do bits, basically.
La Bear
Yeah, I hear you. I hear you don't want mixed kids.
Guest/Advertiser
Norm.
Sean
Norm.
La Bear
Damn, Brian, you're so good at this. How'd you even know?
Sean
Norm MacDonald famously said, Comics Unleashed. I've never seen comedians more leashed. But Kimmel and Colbert apparently had. Had been going back and forth. Kimmel averages around 2.5 mil.
La Bear
Yeah.
Sean
So now he'll probably take over.
La Bear
Yeah.
Sean
But Jimmy Fallon, he's. He's struggling.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
Foul dog struggling.
Sean
He's at 1.3 mil. He's. He's a million under each of them for.
La Bear
Yeah, you need to put Seth Meyers in that spot.
Sean
Seth Meyers average is about the same.
Matt McCusker
They should really think about doing something completely. Like they should just kill a late night talk show and come up with something totally different.
La Bear
Yeah. Podcasts on Netflix.
Matt McCusker
Yeah. Or Most Extreme Challenge. That's such a better thing to end the day with. You don't want to watch Net you don't want to watch politics before you go to bed. Yeah, still, you want to watch Chinese guys jump over logs. Then you're like, yes, I can do it. Then you fall asleep.
La Bear
Are you talking mxc?
Matt McCusker
Yeah.
La Bear
The most extreme challenge.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, dude, I love it.
La Bear
We could do mxc, dude.
Matt McCusker
Mxc. I actually, I have a proposition for you guys. I think now. Now that I'm on my fitness journey where I'm again burning the most calories a month, I'm on par to burn 37,000 calories this month. Pretty sick.
Nate
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
I've been rock dude rocking and rolling. But I think now we should do a presidential fitness challenge. Between you guys, you three should do Presidential Fitness Challenge. Winner gets a thousand bucks.
Nate
Oh, damn it. I did.
Matt McCusker
You have two weeks to prepare. I can't.
La Bear
I can't run.
Matt McCusker
I'm not gonna.
La Bear
Is it just a mile?
Matt McCusker
It's my. I don't have to look it up.
La Bear
I might.
Matt McCusker
I look at the thing.
La Bear
My 100 push ups.
Sean
Shuttle, shuttle run, right?
Matt McCusker
Shuttle run. Yeah. You gotta run pull ups. Whoever wins, it's going to be scored. We can even set different metrics. We can do swim, bike, run.
La Bear
I can't do pull ups. I can't swim. Where's the strength stuff at? Where's the, like, lifting and throwing? I throw a lot.
Matt McCusker
We can. We can definitely set up parameters that are fair.
La Bear
I can push. I can pull. I can lift. I can throw, actually. I can push. I can lift. I can throw.
Matt McCusker
It should be, in my opinion, scrap presidential. It should be strength, speed, endurance.
Nate
Oh, I think I got endorsed.
Matt McCusker
You got the doors.
La Bear
I got endurance here. I ain't never gonna quit.
Nate
I die out there.
Matt McCusker
I'm on my Mr. B right now. I was laughing about a fitness challenge being the three of you.
Sean
I would do that.
La Bear
Huh?
Sean
I would do that, but I don't think I'd be very good.
Matt McCusker
That's the whole point. Yeah, I know. Watching Lemaire sink mid laugh would be nice. Nate's ass sticking swimming race. The swimming race would be the dude swimming so hard. If you haven't, like, swam race and you try it. It looks insane. I think I might start the scrap yard for fitness challenges. Dude's completely unprepared and like. All right, let's race.
La Bear
Did you see the scrap yard guy? Yeah.
Nate
Shout out the cast.
Matt McCusker
Oh, yeah.
La Bear
Station white. Shout out gas station white.
Sean
Gas station white.
La Bear
You lost to the guy, though.
Nate
He failed the endorsed challenge.
La Bear
You know, he's one of the bros. I'm saying, dude, that guy solo the guy he fought in that video, he always does. He just gets. He's drunk in every video. He just gets beat up and head kicks the guy and they're like, I'm done. I can't fuck this guy anymore. He just kicked the shit out of me.
Nate
Yeah, like every video he was throwing, spinning back fish. He was just doing shit.
Matt McCusker
Hold on, back to your guys's race. Don't change the subject.
La Bear
African American.
Matt McCusker
I think it'd be fun. I think it'd be fun. Yeah, I think it'd be a lot of fun.
La Bear
It'd be a hoot, dude.
Matt McCusker
We have to think about it.
La Bear
But it was always my least favorite week in gym. What? Well, the, the test week.
Matt McCusker
Oh, the test. Yeah. I used to do as low as possible because I thought it was funny. I would hold. I was hanging from the pull up bar and go. And then I'd walk as slow as I could for the run. Like, dude, this is as best as I could do. My teacher would get so bad, dude, this is as far as I can get.
La Bear
The teachers lie for me. They'd be like seven minutes.
Matt McCusker
Oh, that's nice. 12. Yeah, I remember I clocked like a 24 minute mile and the guy was so mad. I was like, dude, I'm out of breath.
La Bear
What do we do?
Nate
I think I remember mine. I just blew like, I sprinted as fast as I could. The first lap and then just gas, then just walked for five. It was like, it was like six laps total. I got one good lap in.
La Bear
Yeah, I would hit the straightaways pretty hard and then the fucking curves are like.
Nate
Ours was just a regular circle. Just.
La Bear
Oh, I heard you say my straightaway was probably like 20 seconds each, but that circle was like a minute.
Matt McCusker
Hey, guys, let's take a quick break from the show for a special segment called More or less Presidential Fight Night Edition, brought to you by prize picks. On June 14, some of the biggest names in MMA are headed to the White House and you can make your MMA picks on Prize Picks. And to celebrate this historic card, Prize Picks is dropping a sugar Sean o' Malley discount, which means less strikes. Still cash. Okay, but let's put the gloves on. Who's winning? The. Who's winning in the South Lawn? Oh, we're putting the gloves on to talk about who's winning in the South Lawn. Matt.
La Bear
I'm looking at the card right now and it's, it's. A lot of these fights are pretty one sided, I'll tell you.
Matt McCusker
What do you mean?
La Bear
Diego Lopez beats Steve Garcia you think that? Yeah. Bo Nickel, Kyle Dawkis. I think Kyle Dawkis beats Bo Nickel because he's buns. Mauricio Rufey versus Michael Chandler. Roofy wins because Michael Chandler always lets everyone down. Josh Hochschs versus. This is the truth. Josh Hokic versus Derrick Lewis. Derrick Lewis beats Josh Hokik Because I
Sean
might disagree with you.
La Bear
Well, I'm telling you, Derek Luc.
Matt McCusker
Oh, the gloves are on.
Nate
The black.
La Bear
The black Beast wins because of racism.
Matt McCusker
What?
La Bear
What?
Sean
Why do you think Josh Hoket just beat Curtis Blades in one of the best fights of the year?
La Bear
By. Because price picks.
Matt McCusker
Price picks didn't.
La Bear
Would one of them have, like a broken leg or something? Or broken hands?
Sean
I'll take the gloves off.
Matt McCusker
I'll just let you put the gloves off. The gloves are off. He has. You can't. You can't attack him on his.
La Bear
I'm telling you, dude. Hokage. Hokage. Losing Derek is going to win this. Hokage.
Matt McCusker
Who's the main event?
La Bear
The main event. We have a couple. Sean Malley loses. Alex Pero wins. Sean Mall is going to lose a whole Zahabi. Okay. He's going to lose to a Canadian. And then Alex Pereira versus Cyril Gunn. I guess Alex Pereira wins.
Matt McCusker
Okay.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
What's the main.
La Bear
The main event is Ilia Toporia versus Justin Gaethje. And I would love to say Justin Gaethje wins this fight, but Ilia Toporia is going to smoke it. Elliot Seporia is too nasty.
Sean
Only one way to find out.
Matt McCusker
Only one way to find out. Prize picks.
Sean

Sean
I'm sorry, man, but I got to be in Raleigh at Good Nights. Please come. Thank you guys very much. Enjoy the rest of the program.
Matt McCusker
I'm telling you guys, you'll see when you turn 40, something kicks in. You get this weird sense of like, I need to push my body to the limits. It hit me so hard as soon as I turned 40, I was like, I need to go all like.
Nate
I don't know, like, I've been keeping it to myself. I've been, I've been, I've been working out a little bit. I say nothing but my biceps right now. I've been hurting for like two days. Just, you know, I've been working on a little bit. But like, but not like a usual when I was younger where the sore feels good. Like this is like, it hurts. I think I tore something.
Matt McCusker
It doesn't. I mean, that's all it is. You do make. You make micro tears. But, dude, I'm. I started when, I guess I moved here, what, two and a half years ago and I was, I would, I could never work out consistently. I don't know what it was. I would never do it. So then I started and I started like, I, I didn't realize how deeply out of shape you get. Like, I was, yeah, I was like, I exercise sometimes. I was deeply out of shape and Then you. It takes like a year just to get like able to like fully run a couple miles. Something they consider like is pretty normal. I couldn't do, I couldn't run a full mile. I know I couldn't do it. And then you get. Once you can do that, it takes a while to build that up or like. Yeah. Actually work out without getting like super shin splints and just like, you're like, I can't even move. Took me a full year to be able to actually work out consistently. Like physically handle being able to work
La Bear
out guy like me. It'll take like three months.
Matt McCusker
Like in the field day challenge.
La Bear
Dude,
Matt McCusker
put it on rain bed.
La Bear
I've been working too.
Nate
Yeah.
La Bear
Playing basketball a lot.
Matt McCusker
B ball is helpful.
La Bear
Yeah.
Nate
Good.
Matt McCusker
I wonder, I wonder how again you guys don't have to do this if you don't want, but I wonder how you have to. You'd have to figure out a way to do it where everyone has a shot and it'd be. It'd be very funny.
La Bear
We gotta do an athletics when I can. I'm the most athletic out of us.
Matt McCusker
But what are the metrics? Yeah, talking.
Nate
We're talking speed jump it like, like,
La Bear
well, like sports I guess. Right.
Nate
You bounce.
La Bear
Oh.
Matt McCusker
So like you have to have the shooting contest.
La Bear
Like a, like a, like what was it called? The. What was the football thing? Punk kick pass.
Matt McCusker
Punk kick pass. Yeah. Yeah.
Nate
I think you got me in pkp. I think I would, I think I would do a great punt.
Matt McCusker
Punt would be nice. Big punta game at Chuck E. Cheese where you throw the. That game.
Nate
Dexterity with the little, little balls.
Matt McCusker
But dude, I got, I got sent it. Well, first of all, I just turned 40 and I. It's instantly kicked in. It was just like, dude, I gotta push it as hard as I can. I'm still in it right now. I'm literally going nuts working out. But it's kind of fun.
La Bear
You're on track to get. Get rid of 37, 000 calories, dude.
Sean
But it did.
Matt McCusker
Why, why won't my fat leave my body? Why won't my. It's crazy.
Nate
Has to feel crazy.
Matt McCusker
It's insane. I don't eat. Dude. I eat pretty healthy, man. I. I really, really do. I mean every now and again do I eat a little too much? Obviously, but like exactly. It's not that bad. It's. For me it's been eye opening to be like, dude, it's so hard. Especially I guess at 40, you can say it's so hard to get Shredded, like, so hard, it's. It's almost. I won't say impossible because it's possible. It's so much harder than you think.
Nate
Damn.
La Bear
You gotta get on the, bro.
Matt McCusker
No, no, I'm not on the. But I will say the reason. The. The reason I'm going hard right now is I have. I had a life insurance thing where they're. Now, I can't do zins. I can't do any of that stuff because you have to pay a serious premium. So if you're taking Zins or even, like, well, smoking, obviously. But now, even since if they detect nicotine. Yeah. In your system, you have to pay, like, 50%.
La Bear
How to fucking your system.
Matt McCusker
Oh, nicotine. It's like anything else.
La Bear
No, no. I mean, the.
Nate
Dude, they go through all of this.
Matt McCusker
They're.
Nate
They're literally hobbies.
Matt McCusker
They have to pay your family if you, like, a lot if you die. So then they go, all right, we'll do this. But we.
La Bear
They.
Matt McCusker
I didn't realize. They do a very invasive check. Like, there's a chance. And this is what I'm training for. I might have to go on the 50 cent treadmill with, like, the mask and shit.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
And just fully ball out for a doctor, which I'm. I'm trying to get freak status. Yeah. I'm trying to get creature. I'm trying to get them to go, what the. Is going on?
La Bear
Which video was that in the club? Yeah.
Matt McCusker
I always think. I was like, I want to do. Ever since I saw a video, I was like, I want to do one of those tests from the doctor so bad.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
Put on the mask and just go nuts, man.
La Bear
This. This is the thing. They just don't want to give any money.
Nate
Yeah.
La Bear
That's literally it.
Matt McCusker
Yeah. That's the whole fucking point.
La Bear
Like, that's not what insurance is for. Insurance is for.
Nate
I think life insurance. No, no, no.
La Bear
But I mean, like, all insurance is all the type of. Same type of fucking scam where it's like, we're going to take care of you, but if your blood work is a little bit down when you die, charge you more.
Matt McCusker
That's. Yeah, they're going to pay you, but you got to pay more. It's all just a mathematical formula.
Nate
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
They go, okay, we have all the data. If you display these characteristics, you are this much more likely to die, therefore you got to pay us more.
Nate
Don't they check, like, what are their hobbies? Like, if you like extreme sports, I don't know.
La Bear
What's the value of A life depends.
Matt McCusker
Depends how much? Literally depends how much you pay them. So it's like if you pay them more, they'll give you more when you die. So, you know, it's like my life is priceless.
Nate
Hey, I agree.
La Bear
I can't afford to pay me enough.
Matt McCusker
You gotta ask them. But whoever gets, they'll disagree and go, fine, we just won't go into the death business with you. I'm in the death business right now. I'm doing it for 10 years. I'm gonna do a 10 year insurance policy and just pray that I'm not. I won't need life insurance. That's my plan.
La Bear
I'm gonna, I'm gonna get life insurance. I'm gonna start it just while my kids are little.
Matt McCusker
It's a safeguard. In order to do it, I have to take life insurance.
La Bear
Hey, Matt, you know, if you give me a hundred thousand dollars, if you give me $2,000 a month until. For the next 10 years, I'll make sure when you die you have a hundred thousand dollars. That's what, that's what, that's what life insurance is doing.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, but they, they will actually pay you.
La Bear
No, they won't. They're making you go through tests. No, they don't do, bro.
Matt McCusker
They get rated these, these places get assessed. They're rated. There's places that have, they have. They track what percent pays out.
Sean
All right.
Nate
Man, Isn't that what this did? Along came Polly. Wasn't he that guy, like he would.
Matt McCusker
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Nate
That was his whole job was to like see how much you're in the 90s, early 2000s.
La Bear
Okay.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, dude, they, they actually pay. They really will. I mean if there's certain. I'm sure as people get out of the hook.
La Bear
Just like the Gerber baby. The Gerber baby definitely paid the virgin guy. Gerber baby. You remember Gerber baby.
Matt McCusker
What happened?
La Bear
Your parents would get like, they'd be like child insurance. You pay them every month until you turn to your kid, turn 18 or something. Then they get like a lump sum of money.
Matt McCusker
That's different. So there's insurance as an investment. That's a different thing. And that's actually, it's unregulated. So if you, if you sell insurance as an investment, you're not beholden to the sec. So there they, it's called, there's, you know, I'm not going to say the name of the place.
La Bear
I'm selling life insurance as an investment.
Matt McCusker
Huh.
Nate
Just started right now.
La Bear
I'm just.
Matt McCusker
Right now?
La Bear
Yeah, I'M going to get it all. You're not back if you guys want,
Matt McCusker
you're making your life. I hear your point. I hear your point. You're hitting me with bus stop rumblings right now. I know how the life insurance policy, it's like astrophysics, the numbers, it's so complicated. I agree, it's kind of. But at the same time you don't need to take it.
La Bear
Do they have the same numbers of Affleck? Like, you know how like if you get work hurt in Affleck, like you lose a finger, you get so much money? No, it's like, then it's not like
Matt McCusker
it's, it's them going, we'll give you what you pay. If you want X, you got to pay us X amount. Because most people don't die. So they're like, they just get money. Yeah, I'm saying like during those years when you're younger, they get all these people. They're like, we're getting all this money. Then people die, they go, here, give them these, give these guys money. But if you're having so many, like if you have all of these 40 year olds giving you life insurance money, the percentage of 40 year olds that die is way lower than I think. And everyone's incentivized to stay alive.
La Bear
The whole idea of insurance is not to give you anything.
Matt McCusker
Well, they, they do. Well, this is them. They try to maximize profit and they will set up things when they make it harder to get it PA out, which is annoying. And then they'll do a thing where it's like, ah, well dude, your insurance, like homeowners will be like, ah, your got up but that your roof got messed up. That could have been from like if it's animal damage, they'll be like, we don't cover anything from the ursine family. So they'll be like, if like say a raccoon up your roof, if like a raccoon up your roof, they'll be like, we covered more for like rodent infestation. So they will do like that 100
Nate
acts of God, dude, we got storms or something. Is that like a whole term?
Matt McCusker
They have some, they have some bs. I actually funny enough last night dreamed I tackled an insurance executive. And as I tackled him I was like, hey, at least someone didn't shoot you people. Other people shoot you. It was a up dream. But I remember waking up from him being like, I must be really pissed about this insurance. I must want my little knickknack naturals, dude, that's why I'm so bad right now. I literally can't do them. I'm. I'm in a deep subspace right now because of health insurance. I'm so subbed out to insurance companies right now. I'm being dominated so hard. Like, I'll down to write at my laptop and I'm like, I want my zins, man.
La Bear
And I'm like, you're being fin d.
Matt McCusker
I'm being indom. Truly insurance dominated. That's the thing too. Apparently. If they catch you doing them, they can just be like, yep, we're out of here. Thanks for your money. You're gone.
Nate
Like, even they keep the money you had.
Matt McCusker
If. If I get the non. Which I. I don't have, I again, I've. I've stayed on record. Nicotine is not addictive. I got off it no problem. Yeah, but it's like, I really isn't that hard. I didn't think it was that hard, but. But if they catch you consuming nicotine while you're being covered, they could in theory, sever the thing.
Nate
Damn.
Matt McCusker
Yeah. Now to fulfill the. I just chew coffee beans while I do stuff gives me that same feeling of like, you know, I like. I like inserting that thing. Paul's into my lip right there. So, yeah, right now I'm being completely subbed out and I'm paranoid now. I'm going like, damn. Like, you hear about people getting like, killed for life. Yeah, yeah. I'm like, my wife might kill my one fight.
Nate
You gotta sleep with your eye open kind of, man.
Matt McCusker
I'm kind of being like, yeah, I told her that.
La Bear
Damn.
Matt McCusker
I said, it's like, now I'm like, even just questioning. I'm like, dude, for real. I was. She got really upset at me, but I was like, it's a lot of upside to me dying for this family. That's what I said. I'm like, it's kind of peace of mind being like, bro, if I just die, it's a huge bag for the whole family. He's like, don't talk like that. Oh, I don't know. It makes me feel kind of good being like it. Man, the plane goes down, it sucks. But like, kids are cool. Cha ching for the fans. Don't think like that. I'm thinking like that. I'm hoping you're not thinking like that.
La Bear
You ever see the show? There's a show called DTF St. Louis
Matt McCusker
where that's like, yeah, what is the show about? Is it about that more?
La Bear
Well, a guy's getting cucked and then his wife gets insurance and they. She plans to kill.
Matt McCusker
Oh, he gets the bull. Basically is like, let's kill your dumbass husband and take them all best friends.
Nate
They're like, bull in the cuck are the whole thing.
La Bear
It's a great show.
Matt McCusker
I know, but I'm saying the friend is the bull.
Nate
The friend is the bull. My thing is, they also flip and they all know.
La Bear
And everybody knows too.
Nate
My flip. And the bull becomes the cup.
Matt McCusker
What?
Nate
Yeah, yeah. Like, he. Like.
La Bear
Like he.
Nate
They were closet watching, like, you know. Yeah, watching the closet. Eventually the cuck was like, I just don't feel like part of this. Can we switch it up? Because it was his wife. He's like, I still want to, you know.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, I want to be the bull.
Nate
And then the wife. It was like the saddest thing of all time. The wife just was like, nah, kid.
Matt McCusker
So then he didn't become the bull that he asked to be on the bull.
Nate
He asked to become the bull. And the wife was like, no shot.
Matt McCusker
Well, you. First of all, you can't ask to become the bull. You gotta be the bull.
La Bear
You just gotta.
Matt McCusker
You gotta be out there. Great. You gotta be out there grazing, dude.
Nate
That's where he blew it.
Matt McCusker
My thing is, if you're gonna cuck me, cuckoo me, don't kill me. That's my thing. Please don't kill me.
Nate
No, no, no.
Matt McCusker
They did.
Nate
They didn't kill him. I remember it now. They. They get to. I get to the end. I don't want to spoil this.
Matt McCusker
That's fine. I'm never going to watch it. But they. I mean, I heard it's a great show. I heard it's amazing. It's heard the show is really good, so he was getting cucked.
La Bear
There's a lot of dongs in it, though. Be prepared for dong.
Matt McCusker
A lot of dong.
La Bear
A lot of dog.
Matt McCusker
Sound of a great show. I'm telling you. Go through all the great shows. Game of Thrones actually made it just Game of Thrones.
La Bear
Oz.
Matt McCusker
I said a lot of dong.
La Bear
Yeah. They were in jail.
Matt McCusker
Sopranos had minimal if no dong.
Nate
I can't think of one dog.
Matt McCusker
I can't think of one dog.
Nate
That makes sense.
Matt McCusker
There's a scene where, like, when AJ's getting dressed, you peep his dong. He was like a boy.
La Bear
No dog in the Sopranos. But they did have a big.
Matt McCusker
Did they have a big character's name?
La Bear
Huh?
Nate
It's a guy's name.
Matt McCusker
They're Tits and Sopranos. Yeah.
Nate
A lot of the bada bing.
Matt McCusker
That's a style. That's a. You know, that's some stylization I could get into. Like, they're probably like, yeah, we're going to be one of the greats. We got to show dong. And they're like, let's just do Tits are rocking. There is something so classical about showing dong in the show. You almost got to do it at certain. At a certain point.
La Bear
But everybody loves tits.
Matt McCusker
Everyone loves tits, but everyone fears and respects a dong. Yeah, you're there. Watch with your baby dog. Do they show that one, man?
Nate
Sometimes you're like. Like, good one to show, though. Like, sometimes they hit you with water. You're like, perfect.
Matt McCusker
Westworld is just a dong shower. You watch Westworld, all the robots are there, and you're going, bro, you're gonna hit me with a flask that flaccid right now.
La Bear
Why didn't they even give them. They're robots. Make them Kindles. Why didn't eat junk.
Matt McCusker
Yeah.
Nate
Weren't they those robots, though? That was the thing.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, they were the robots. Oh, yeah.
Nate
They had a like a crazy flash of the early in Western.
La Bear
You should give every robot a dude. Robots, girl robots, A pussy.
Matt McCusker
Like the one that kicked the boy. You don't want that. One that kicked the boy can get his kid back. When you turn 18, son, you're gonna get your get back on that robot that kicked you. His robot pussy.
La Bear
That kid's gonna be the Terminator. I bet he's gonna save us. John Connor.
Matt McCusker
Dude, we were talking earlier. That kick must have hurt so bad.
Nate
It didn't look like a mistake either. It looked like perfect to the gut.
La Bear
That kick was. The kick was intentional. I don't think the kid was supposed to be the target, though.
Matt McCusker
So it was like a turnaround. I saw the kick. It was like a turnaround. It wasn't a dance kick.
La Bear
It was like a tornado kick.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, that was like a MMA kick. If he hit him with one of these like that out and in. I was hitting the out and in so hard last night after I saw
La Bear
the Michael Jackson movie if a roommate. If a robot hits the damn question mark kick, we're cooked.
Matt McCusker
I would fake. I would fall. I would fall right into it.
La Bear
Huh.
Matt McCusker
Also, it's metal, dude. You're just getting caved in, dude. I apparently, like. I mean, it's heavy machinery. It's different, but, like, getting hit with, like, metal. I've walked. It didn't even move. I was walking and it was a mini excavator and I Walked into the bucket and hit my head. I was. It hurt. I was like, ow. It's like no give whatsoever. So it's. If one of those machines just does digging and, like, nudges you a little bit, you go flying.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
Because they're so strong, if you get hit with metal, dude, it's like, we gotta start putting some flesh and bone on those things.
La Bear
Yeah. And make them weak.
Matt McCusker
Maybe you have to. Maybe all robots have to be BBW safety. Although then they can crush you.
La Bear
Paradise.
Nate
That's.
Matt McCusker
Try to do you try to do a little, you know, smother play. Now you today.

Nate
I watched that. I watched that guy's video. The. The fart guy you would tell. Oh, dude. Might be the best thing.
Matt McCusker
How's the interview? The interview is amazing. It's so good. What's the fart he talks about? Oh, you weren't. You were here last weekend. Last week. There's a guy. I'll just say a guy on software underbelly fart fetishes.
Nate
Oh.
Matt McCusker
Might have put out the best interview of all time. And they're talking in earnest about hearing. When he talks about gay farts.
Nate
I don't remember the gay farts.
Matt McCusker
They're talking gay farts. And he goes, well, that's like, part of the. There's, like, a privilege to being gay where, like, gay farts are way more abundant than straight farts. Lady farts are tougher. Yeah. Because if you want farts.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
You're saying if you're gay and you have a fart fetish, you're in, you know, it's fart paradise.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
Where it's just you. I mean, you can get more farts out of a guy.
Nate
I did see him go, like, hard, like, I'm not gay. When they asked him, like, what is he? And then he also got real. Like, he was like, I think I'm asexual, but I don't think that guy's asexual. I think he poured himself into just.
Matt McCusker
Yeah.
Nate
Hard normally.
Matt McCusker
I also don't know why a lot of those guys like to try to, like, think it necessarily has to do with their upbringing. Like, because his. His link to the upbringing was weak. It was just like, bro, if his mom, like, grounded him and farted on his head or whatever.
Nate
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
I think, all right, you have a fair case. But it was just like, yeah, my parents farted. It's like, it doesn't mean you're gonna want to. You're sexually into farts. My dad farted all the time. I can't. Again, I'm not. I'm a no go zone on lady farts.
La Bear
Dad's fart.
Nate
Dad was supposed to fart.
Matt McCusker
Dad's fart. You have to. I was. Dude, I was lighting it up last night so bad.
Nate
You're supposed to have your family on your couch and everyone feel your fart fart.
Matt McCusker
I. Dude, I. I was in the closet. I had to go into, like, the closet. I leave the bedroom, hit the closet, and just fart. And from our closet, my wife still could hear and be like, oh, my God, that's terrible. They were. They were hot.
Nate
Yeah, mine's been stinking too. They have not been bad.
Matt McCusker
You eat cheese?
Sean
Huh?
Matt McCusker
You eat milk and cheese?
Nate
I do, but it's never been a problem. And I don't do too much of it. Like, you know, I get a little pizza sometimes.
Matt McCusker
You know, the percentage of people lactose intolerant is.
Nate
It's crazy high.
Matt McCusker
It's like 60 to 80%. That's the thing too. Everyone's I, I, I'm among them. If I, I, if I have milk or cheese pasteurized, I fart. Even if I have raw cheese, I fart so hard I can have raw milk. I have no side effects.
Nate
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
If I have pasteurized milk. You know, everyone talks about other stuff and you can get whatever a disease from raw milk. Nobody talks about the pasteurized milk farts. Like, they're crazy. It's like some of my worst is when I'm with dairy. I was doing it last night, it was hot farts all night. It took a half an hour off my sleep, dude. Because it's like I, I just, I dropped one in the middle of the night the night before. Woke the babe up again. Gave her like a sleep. I just ran it back. She woke up one.
La Bear
Oh.
Nate
I was like, God damn.
Matt McCusker
So then I was like, I'm not going to be a jerk. I got up, I was foreign. Or I'll do tiny. Like wait a little bit and I'll safely kind of push it out. But yeah, dude. Yeah. I also, I don't like girl farts. I almost want to see if we can come up with a drug to stop women from dreaming. I don't like girl dreams either.
Nate
We deal with them because you have to deal with them. The next weed.
Matt McCusker
Weed will do it. Yeah.
Nate
Julia smokes every day. She still has.
Matt McCusker
She, she still catches you in the dream realm. Hit.
Nate
Well, either she'll catch me with him, but either even worse, she'll just want to tell me about it. It'll just be a useless story.
Matt McCusker
Yeah.
Nate
So if my dream, it's like, who gives a. It's not real.
Matt McCusker
I get, I get hit with like sleep interrupters where I'll be like, I'll be just drifting off. And then last night, Britney woke up and went like, I'm never getting these nails ever again. They're hot. They're hot. And I'll do it. Go to bed. I literally get angry. I'm like, go to sleep. That was a dream. And she just falls asleep. But she wake up with non. It's literally nonsense. It makes no sense. And I'm like, in that perfect thing, I'm like, oh, I'm drifting apart. It'll be like, oh, what's happening? I'm like, shut up. And I can say anything because she's not as it's not awake. I can literally be like, shut up. Go to bed.
La Bear
She's like, why are you so.
Matt McCusker
I'm like, dude, I need to, I need to Stop this mechanism.
La Bear
You know, you got to put like a. Like a soft cushion here. So when she wakes up, she hits it and then goes back to sleep.
Matt McCusker
That would be nice because I can't stand the wake ups. Kill me. What's happening?
La Bear
Catch her right before she goes, shut up.
Sean
My lady scared the hell out of me the other day with one of those. She woke up and she goes, sean doesn't know it right now, but the camera's filming him. He's on camera right now. And I was like, like what? She just kept babbling about it, and I realized she was asleep. And I go, you're scaring me.
Nate
Go back to the.
Sean
And then that morning, I woke her up with a fart.
La Bear
Get back. That's a good morning.
Sean
Hitting her with the. The cockadoodle do fart.
La Bear
That's a good fart, dude. To wake up.
Nate
Fart.
Matt McCusker
Cockadoodle poo. I. That's. I spend. At least 1% of our conversation is she's unconscious and being like. And I'm like, dude, stop it. Stop it now. No, stop it. It's not real. Go to bed.
Sean
That's a check.
Matt McCusker
Just fall asleep. It's like, fuck.
La Bear
I didn't realize how, like, girls spiral without men. Like, if it's just like, girls by themselves, they're like.
Matt McCusker
It would take them, like, a day to realize that that was the street. My grandfather was. A demon was keeping me out of the house.
Nate
There's no one to tell him it was a dream.
Matt McCusker
I had some dudes as a dude that's like, you know, like straight wolves became domesticated dogs because they would, like, lay by the thing and wake up and be like, hey, people are coming. Yeah, that's how dudes got to get that. They got to lay there. Yo, it's not real, dude. I was fucking just like, I was staying up later because I'm a guy and I just chill and you fall asleep.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
You just tell you you're just peacefully sleeping. Like you're not being attacked by a demon right now. Let me get some.
Sean
You sure?
Nate
I'm sure.
La Bear
I got a. I had a dream. I had a sequel dream. I don't even know what the fuck. Because, like, a couple of weeks ago I, like, dreamed about murdering somebody.
Matt McCusker
Dreams we've talked about.
La Bear
I know I have.
Matt McCusker
Who?
La Bear
You. That's why I can't watch, like, upset, like, horror movies. Because if I watch horror movies, I'm going to have, like, nightmares about it. And I'm just going to be like, all right. I guess I live with the terrifier now. But yeah, I don't know who it was. I don't know what happened. I killed somebody and then like this week I was hanging out with you guys. We were somewhere on the beach or on the lake and then a cop came after me and I was like, all right guys, I gotta go. Don't worry about it.
Matt McCusker
You know what you're saying?
Nate
Yeah, I had one of those.
Matt McCusker
I don't know what it was.
Nate
I remember I killed somebody. I think I like. I think it was like for my babe or something like that. It would be disposed of the body.
Matt McCusker
Well, you touch her and die, huh? Touch her and die is a romantic trope. Toucher and die is one of the things women are really into. If like. If like someone touches this lady, you kill her enemies. The lovers touch her and die. There's a bunch of these things. They're very funny that in the dream
Nate
I didn't get arrested, but I just was paranoid about the murder from the past dream. I was like, oh shit, I haven't even been thinking about this. It's been like three weeks.
Matt McCusker
I know they're on my ass. That was me.
Nate
It was just knowing that they gotta be coming soon.
Matt McCusker
Yeah.
La Bear
And I woke up at like 8 in the morning. I was like, are these. Am I. Did I kill someone in my sleeping. Arrested?
Nate
I just made fun of my babe telling. Talking about dreams that aren't real. Just fully baby out.
Matt McCusker
It happens, dude. It's their fault. They see put. You're in the field, you're absorbing all the. Dude, it's. I used to have prison dreams all the time. I used to have dreams that I was in prison, I was arrested, I got in trouble and I was just in prison. I'd have to. Every time I'd be in jail, I'd be like, I can get out of here. I'm like, this is so dumb the way this is set up. I can definitely get out of here.
Nate
You have a breakout.
Matt McCusker
I remember it'd be like I could just walk out, but then I just like get out. And they'd be like, hey you're. It was like very. Everything was very slow. And they'd be like, like you're supposed to be in jail right now. And I'd be like, oh, go back to jail. Then walk back out and be like, haha.
Nate
Was this in the trapping days?
Matt McCusker
Yeah, I would always get in trouble. I would get in trouble or I'd have like a pound of weed in my basement that I had to get out. But There was like, cops surrounding my house. So I'd have to. In my sleep, I'd be like, all right, I'll put a little bit in this thing and put it out here. And I would just constantly try to. And they'd be coming in and out, trying to find it. I'd be like. It was like, I'd have non stop stress dreams the entire time.
Nate
Time.
Matt McCusker
It sucked. And I. I remember my heart rate would, like, I'd wear an apple watch to sleep and I would get like 130 heart rate in. In sleep all the time. I don't get it. Now I'm chill.
Nate
That stinks.
Matt McCusker
It's bad for you.
La Bear
Yeah. I don't have.
Nate
I feel like I almost never have, like. Like for real, for the most part. Like, I rarely have dreams that stick with me anymore.
Matt McCusker
Like, I don't know if it's my.
Nate
My lady will. She'll have them every night. And, like, would tell me about him if I let her. I'll, like. It'll be like, oh, I had a dream last night.
Matt McCusker
Yeah.
Nate
And it'll stand out to me every
La Bear
time I have a dream. It means I'm.
Matt McCusker
Yeah.
Nate
Wake up in the middle of night, like, oh, I gotta. Gotta turn these off.
Matt McCusker
I. I used to have big. We were being invaded by China dreams.
Nate
I still have those.
Matt McCusker
Where it'd be like, we would just be battling. It'd be like a war. I'd be in a city, it would turn into a war zone. Like, Russia and China were attacking us.
La Bear
Dude, I was at the wall. I was like, why am I at the wall? Like, not the Great Wall, the, like, border wall.
Matt McCusker
Oh, really?
La Bear
Yeah, I was like, why am I at the wall? And there's all Chinese people
Matt McCusker
at the wall.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
It is like China tries to get into our country. They, like, walk through Mexico and they're like, God damn it. It's a fucking. When? When?
Nate
Bay. Remember that Beirut explosion? That was like crazy big when that happened. There was like a part of me that was like. That wasn't. That wasn't a factory. That was a little nuke, like, for, like. And I had like a couple, like. Like a week or so of just waking up. And it was. The sun will be coming through the blinds in a weird way, but it'd be the first thing I see. And I would think it's just like, nuke.
Matt McCusker
White hot flash.
Nate
Like, white hot flash. And I'm like, what,
La Bear
you fart first?
Matt McCusker
I. I got. Last night, I had sex. Thank God I was sick. And then I was holding in. I had those nasty dairy farts.
Nate
So I was.
Matt McCusker
I was like. I just sucked them into my body. I was like, I can't fart during sex. So I successfully, successfully, literally, like, absorbed all my farts, had sex. Thank God I didn't fart while I was coming. It'll happen to me. That'll happen to me. Yeah. Wait, you. You'll see. Turbo, bro. It's happening. I can't tell you how many times I've fought doing hand jobs. Especially there's hand jobs. You're like, whatever, I'm up. You're like, it's never happened to any of you guys.
Nate
Oh, man. I definitely had to, like, think about not farting recently.
Matt McCusker
It's happened to me many times.
La Bear
I've definitely pushed a fart, too, in the mattress.
Sean
I've clenched before.
Matt McCusker
So I made it navigated through. Nice. No come farts, polish, obviously. And then I go. Immediately afterwards, I walked into the bathroom and just was like. Just completely let it out. And it was. I mean, damage was done. It was over.
La Bear
Was it more satisfying to cut me?
Matt McCusker
Just be like, oh, it was nice. Yeah. I walked in and I was. I was like, holy, dude. I got a little glimpse of paradise. Yeah. The fat farts. Yeah, that guy was swimming in some fat farts.
Nate
He probably loved him.
La Bear
Hog heaven.
Matt McCusker
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I was talking about the guy who ran Paradise. Although maybe not check his testimonials. Maybe he's like, didn't like the farts whatsoever.
La Bear
You know, when the cop. I remember the cop from the dream, like, it was like a lesbian lady with blonde hair. And I don't know why it was that lady, the short hair. It was like a dyke cop.
Nate
You were like a white lady. Black lady.
La Bear
It was a white lady.
Sean
White lady.
Nate
Cool.
Matt McCusker
Yeah. Dang. You had a white lady cop on your ass.
La Bear
Yeah. I don't even know why. Oh, I was watching Midwest Safety. I think that's what happened. I was watching Midwest Safety. It was. It was so funny. There was this one, this racist guy. I know he was a racist because, like, he fought black guys and he was, like, harassing them. That's what the cops. So they go. He gets beat up, he gets hit in the haze, bleeding from his head. He's in his house, they go. The cops go to his house, and he's like, you gotta let me go outside.
Matt McCusker
I saw that guy. Well, also, when I heard.
La Bear
The whole time he was ramping up to the N word, he didn't hit it. He hit it for sure. He hit It A couple times, he
Matt McCusker
had the stars and bars in his house. They go into his house, full stars and bars. And he's just in there like, I want. I want outside. Now that I love people. They don't say, I want to go outside. I want outside. He kept hitting it and hitting it, and they were like. And they were like. He's like, that black punk outside. I'm going, all right. He's working. He's coming.
La Bear
He's so fast.
Matt McCusker
The coffee machine's percolating right now.
Nate
That's when you go take a side bet with some. Somebody real quick. Over and under.
Matt McCusker
He says, oh, yeah, well, you said racist. You know, it's like, racist guy gets, you know, beat up by the police. So I'm. I'm going like, all right, let's see. Everyone watching it for the same reason. Let's see how. See how he does this.
La Bear
And the black guy on the C is like, hey, man, I literally love you. Look like his homie ain't nothing but love. I don't think they're homies.
Matt McCusker
I think he shoved. Well, they shoved them. Those guys could be bros, too. They're neighbors. Yeah, but he shoved them. That was the thing. That guy shoved the black dude. The black dude gave him a big weld on his head. He was bleeding.
La Bear
He had a. It was Waylon Jennings on the Confederate flag. And it said something like, if slavery wasn't here, we would have made it.
Matt McCusker
Did he really say that?
La Bear
Oh, he calls his mom. The video starts. Mom bring everybody.
Matt McCusker
Bring the whole family.
La Bear
It is.
Nate
That's a scary phone call. We stand the next.
Matt McCusker
No, his mom shows up.
La Bear
Come on. He's like, mom. He's, like, getting mad at the cops. He's trying to resist the rest. He's like, girl, you. You're hurting me, Mom.
Matt McCusker
Dude, most of those Midwife safety videos, it's a grown man. They get arrested. They go, mom. It literally is like. It's an attitude. Adult Tampa dancer. It's like you've. You're beyond your faculties, and you're just being like. Just like your parents. So you have, like, zero power.
Nate
That must feel good. Get out. A full adult span, probably honestly cry for mommy.
Matt McCusker
And then they're like, you know you're gonna jump. I don't give a. I don't care. Every single time. And you're just getting to do full. Like, imagine someone trying to hold you down. You. He gets to go, I literally remember my older brothers beating me up and being like, that's the best.
La Bear
Just projectile Nurses.
Matt McCusker
Little brother, kick. That's the last defense before you get your ass absolutely beaten. Dude, pass your guard, fry. Dude, fried.
La Bear
I saw another crazy one. It was like this Hispanic guy, he trapped this white lady in the house. But, like, he, like, chained her to the floor.
Nate
Ooh.
La Bear
Like, it was like. Like he had chained. He had, like, rooms in his house. And, like, it was crazy. But my thing was, I feel like they did it to people together. And then she cheated on him. Cause these both. These both look like pieces of shit.
Matt McCusker
They should have never unchained her.
La Bear
Yeah, well, the cops unchained her.
Matt McCusker
Cops unchained her. She's gonna fucking cheat on this guy again.
La Bear
Well, that's what he said. He was like, she cheated on me. She was being dramatic. And chained herself himself. And then he left. Yeah, but then she, like, kicked out the window and called, like, the neighbors,
Nate
called the cops, kind of believe him. Him said she was a Spanish.
La Bear
He was Spanish. I believe him more because he. Because then the cop showed up, they arrested him, and he was like, I told him, I'll be in on Monday.
Matt McCusker
So him and his babe. His babe was chained up when the cops got there?
La Bear
Yeah. Like, it was like.
Matt McCusker
He was saying she chained herself.
La Bear
Yeah, because she was being dramatic because she cheated on.
Nate
Around the neck. Like. Like just a chain wrapped. Or like a lock would.
La Bear
Like, it was a master lock in the chain, and then it was, like, bolted into the ground. Like, master locker chain. But also, the whole house was, like, made so nobody can escape.
Nate
Yeah.
La Bear
Like, there was secret rooms. There was, like, the. The front door was locked on the inside and outside. So you needed an inside key and an outside key.
Nate
Okay.
La Bear
Yeah. So, like, nobody.
Nate
You think they were double murder.
La Bear
I think they were doing it together. And then she cheated on him, and he was like, you. And then she was like, it could change.
Matt McCusker
I could change.
La Bear
And he was like, no, I'm leaving. And she's like, I'm gonna chain myself up.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, but how did she call the cops chained up?
La Bear
She kicked out the window and yelled out the window, like, hey, help. You chained me up.
Matt McCusker
Try to be a nice guy and give your girlfriend long chains.
La Bear
I. I'm full Internet sleuth, dude. I'm about to solve everything. I'm solving all the crimes.
Matt McCusker
How do you know? But here's the thing. That's an unsolvable crime. You're out in the house. House.
La Bear
I can smoke, but you can.
Nate
I can smell it.
La Bear
I can sniff suspicion.
Matt McCusker
You're saying you can. You can look at. You can get Context element. Yeah. What is it called? Elementary, my dear Watson.
La Bear
Yeah, she seems. Because it's like.
Matt McCusker
It wasn't like she changed herself.
La Bear
Well, I don't think she chained herself. I think they were chaining people together, and then she tried to get out of it, or she cheated on them to get out of their relationship. And then, like, I think he chained her up because he was like. Or she was.
Matt McCusker
Or the way he said, it's gotta suck as, like, a bondage Dominator to, like, have your sub obviously try to spaz out. Yeah. The term subspace makes me laugh so hard. The subspace is where, like, when you're. You're the sub, but you're subbing out, you're being domed so hard, you just, like, lose all sense of time. You enter subspace. It's apparently a thing. Subspace, subspace and time. But if you were dom. If you're in dom space, but then your sub cheats on you, it's funny to be like, good little kitten. Be like, actually, that actually hurts my feelings. I'm actually really torn up about the fact that you cheated on me. I'm at. Can we. Can we time out for a second? I'm really broken up about this. But then maybe she was. Maybe she needed brat correction. So if you're really a true dom, you would just correct the bratty behavior.
La Bear
Chaining her up.
Matt McCusker
Why'd you chain her up? This guy was textbook dumb. This dude.
La Bear
He didn't leave for, like, three days.
Matt McCusker
He, like, oh, no. Yeah, that's no snack.
La Bear
I think he left because he got a call that the cops were at his house.
Matt McCusker
You gotta leave some chickaboo and popcorn for. You gotta leave yogurt and chickaboo and popcorn and a tv. And I think you could. I think you could change your babe up. I think you could change it for, like, a month. Chicken.
Nate
Boom.
Matt McCusker
Low calorie, sweet kettle corn yogurt and, like, some sort of bev and a TV. I think you could chain a woman for 30 years.
Nate
They might not even notice they're chained up.
La Bear
Like, if you keep replenishing the popcorn and drinks, you put on, like, housewives. You put on every season of Housewives in order. They would never know.
Matt McCusker
Go to hang out with a friend and be like, the. Oh, I'm being domed right now.
La Bear
Yeah.
Matt McCusker
A babe will chill, man. They will chill so, so hard.
La Bear
That might be my dude.
Matt McCusker
She's constantly like, I wish we could, like, stay in bed all day. I'm like, I would throw up. If I lay down.
Nate
I Can't.
Matt McCusker
I can't stay. I. I can't. Until I die, I don't think I'll lay down during the day for another. For the rest of my life. I would go nuts if I just laid there like this, watching television.
La Bear
It was like, that's the dream, bro.
Nate
Just laying on your pillows up.
La Bear
I want to lay my. Lay on the couch all day.
Matt McCusker
Oh, I panic, dude. I remember when I used to have a sick day. For me, it was like the morning was when I didn't want to go to school. So I'd be like. Like, mom, I have diarrhea. And I would get out of school, and I'd be like, yes, I'm out of school. But as the day went on, I'd slowly get filled with the sense of dread, and I'd be like, what have I done? And my cousin would come home like, here's your work for today. And I'm like, this is all I missed. It'd be like a sheet of, like, spelling words. I'm like, okay. But I. I would get, like, panicked by the time the afternoon came. I'd be like, society's moving on without me. I literally. I would feel like I've been left behind. Yeah, I'm. I'm worthless. My schoolmates have left me behind. I'm now an ignoramus laying in bed. I don't know what they know.
La Bear
My friends forgot about me because they faked his diarrhea Glasses moved on.
Nate
I love a good excuse to be lazy, though, like, when you don't have the other.
Matt McCusker
Like, a snow day is nice. I'll take a snow day.
Nate
Rainy day.
Matt McCusker
But then back. Back in the day, I'd be like, the girl with the biggest tits doesn't even know me anymore.
Nate
She might have wore a lotion shirt today, for all I know.
Matt McCusker
Yeah. Oh, today was a spring uniform. That means golf shirts. Oh, boy.
La Bear
Man, I couldn't imagine not to. Couldn't imagine being in, like, horny times with the things the girls wear nowadays. When I was in.
Nate
You know, I'll be in that young.
Matt McCusker
Yeah, it's got to be crazy. I was just talking to Brittany about. About spandex. I was like, you do realize spandex in public is crazy. It's so crazy that that's nuts, let alone because, like, we're talking Spanish.
Nate
You mean, like, leggings? Or, like, leggings?
Matt McCusker
I'm like. I'm like, leggings are like. Like, I'm like, I get it. But it's like, that's still wildly Revealing. It's like you see the contours of, like, the butt and your. And you know.
Nate
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Matt McCusker
Most times a big old camel toe. And I'm going like, it's not crazy to, like, tie something around the waist. Like, that's. It's not, it's. It's understandable because it's like you're, you're out. You're completely on display. And then like, well, I just don't think. And then we walked past a lady who had her butt cheeks hanging out of shorts, and she was like, I can't believe that person's out there. Right? And I was like, like, was. It's like spandex. That's the next evolution. I was like, everyone's dressing like prostitutes used to dress. Yeah. If you wore spandex in the 80s outside, be like, this is a hooker.
Nate
Yeah, yeah.
Matt McCusker
If you wear your butt cheeks out. And now, like in the 90s, 2000s, butt cheeks out was hookers. Now regular ladies are adopting hooker technology.
Nate
And I'm like, see through is getting big. I see it a lot now.
Matt McCusker
It's going to be see through. It's. It's going to be. It's going to hit a point where it will obviously fly back. It already is. There's like the baggy mom jeans now.
Nate
Yeah. I do hate that, to be honest.
Matt McCusker
You hate baggy mom jeans?
La Bear
Is nice.
Nate
It does. It does nothing. Like, it. It really bumps me out.
Matt McCusker
Well, gives you a nice reset. You need a dopamine. I can't handle butt cheeks out of shorts and nipples. That's too much for me.
Nate
It is a lot. Like, I get it.
Matt McCusker
It's too much. It's too much.
Nate
I do celebrate. It's too much. It's a lot. It does. When I driving in New York, back in the day, I used. I used to be like, I know a wreck is coming.
Matt McCusker
Yeah. But if everyone starts doing that, it's going to be a problem. Problem.
Nate
I definitely think once you're off, like, once you're off the market. Spandex outside. Unless you're with your guy Spanx outside.
Matt McCusker
It's again, it's one of those things. I'm like, whatever. I'm just like stating, as a matter of fact, I don't like it. It's what hookers. It's what hookers used to wear.
Nate
If my lady was going out the house. And like, some of the, like, sometimes, I'm not gonna lie, I've seen them, like Instagram leggings that have the, the pre. Wedgie and pre wedgie's crazy. I go on Amazon. I go, where these around the house, please. I've hit the. The.
Matt McCusker
But the butt cupped spandex, it's like, it's crazy. I don't have like super strong. Like, dude, you can't. But I. I just see it and I go like, yeah. Well, it's. That's like your butt. Like, everyone can see your butt now. It's just. It's your butt. It's just instead of your skin, it's spandex. Yeah, but it's still your butt. Which in the future we're all supposed to. We're building towards all wearing spandex all the time. I understand that. I'm not going to fight against. I can't. You're gonna have to that. Otherwise we're never gonna be in the future. Dude, we can't stay baggy and claim to be in the future.
Nate
Oh, I hate the baggie, though. The new bagg come back around.
Matt McCusker
Yeah. That is kind of annoying too.
Nate
It feels crazy. Like I. And it's.
La Bear
It's oversized.
Nate
It's a. Yeah, it's the same as when we were younger. And you.
Matt McCusker
I remember Jenkos were so baggy.
Nate
Baggy jean shorts are back again.
La Bear
Like, get a 6L shirt. It's gonna look regular.
Nate
It's just gonna look regular now. It's gonna look.
La Bear
I mean on me.
Nate
I thought you meant like joke.
Matt McCusker
I thought you've been talking about fashion. We're talking. Seriously, we're talking. I want Talty's tales were the sickest things. I think if any fashion trend. I think tales might be the sickest ever.
Nate
There was. There was a small era that had like a middle ground that I love. It was like the sleeves were normal cut sleeves, but the tea went kind of long. It was perfect.
La Bear
You're wearing a dress.
Nate
It wasn't dress. It wasn't dressed. I walked into that. I put it on like, this is a dress the whole time. It hugs my waist.
Matt McCusker
Yeah.
La Bear
Shows your curves.
Matt McCusker
Like. Yeah. Put it on, hit like spins and it would fly up in the air. Well, guys, I believe we did it. Power hour. Thank you for everybody. Appreciate you guys. We'll. Yeah, man. We'll just keep on plugging along. So all we can do is plot along on this thing called life and rip Sheen. Wait for the robots. All just waiting to see if the robots really take our livelihoods and if, you know, see what happens with the war. Hopefully that stuff blows over and there's peace and that robots don't you know, take us away seems to be hanging over everybody's mind. And the robots, the robots in the war. I don't think the robot's going to take us over. And we're going to go into World War Three. Hopefully it doesn't happen.
La Bear
When the robots in war join together, that's when we're. That's what everyone's afraid of.
Matt McCusker
Or becomes battle bots non stop. And we just. Our food supply depends on how good our BattleBots program is.
La Bear
Each country has their own guy.
Matt McCusker
A couple battlebots wars. Maybe I'll be shredded. Finally being crushed by abundance right now. Well, bye, guys.
Nate
Peace.

This episode of Matt and Shane’s Secret Podcast delivers a freewheeling mix of absurd comedy, cultural commentary, and banter between hosts Matt McCusker and Shane Gillis, with guests Nate Marshall and Lemaire Lee. The main theme is a recent real-world controversy surrounding a body positivity community called “Paradise,” which spins into riffs about plus-sized culture, true crime, masculinity, and all manner of ridiculous tangents. As always, the group leans into playful irreverence, tangential storytelling, and discussions that ping-pong between pop culture, personal anecdotes, and social commentary.
