Rhode Island Iced Tea | Son of a Boy Dad #346

Summary

Son of a Boy Dad #346 – “Rhode Island Iced Tea”

Release Date: October 23, 2025
Hosts: Lil Sasquatch (Sas), Rone, Francis, and Jerry
Main Theme:
Navigating young adulthood, dropping out of college, learning about "manhood" and worldviews, plus humorous takes on fall traditions, weddings, horror movies, and America’s quirks—all while gently roasting each other and discussing regional differences and adult dilemmas.

Episode Overview

This episode follows the usual freewheeling, highly irreverent Son of a Boy Dad tone as the crew riffs on everything from street food skepticism to haunted hayrides, haunted houses, awkward wedding crashers, travel logistics, geopolitics, and the definition of socialism. Lil Sasquatch’s recent drop-out from college is referenced as the hosts and friends attempt to “fill in the gaps on the education he missed,” mostly via laughs, oddball stories, and a healthy dose of unseriousness about “learning to be a man.”

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Street Food & Tamale Wars

[02:20-04:39]

• A running gag on Sas’s reluctance to eat a street tamale, with the crew playfully accusing him of being “xenophobic” and “street phobic.”
  • Harry: “Why would there be any bacteria? That’s street phobic.”
  • Francis: “You got it on the street.”
  • Harry: “You’re deeply racist if you don’t eat the street meat.”
• Arguments over fast food vs. street food quality; Domino’s at 3am vs. subway churros (“the most disgusting thing” – Harry).
• Deep dive into the mystique of New York subway churros and fair foods: fried dough, funnel cake, regional differences.

2. Fall Activities: Hayrides and Haunted Houses

[07:22-10:09]

• Reminiscences about haunted hayrides in Maine and Pennsylvania—rural rituals, the bravado of sitting on the edge, kids driving tractors, spooks with chainsaws.
• Francis, on interactive haunted houses: “You go into a room and there’s a woman being suffocated with a plastic bag…and she’s like, screaming...What are we doing here, people?” [10:08]

3. Morbid Curiosity and Impulse Control

[11:20-13:09]

• The panel admits to childish mischief—setting off fire alarms, toying with danger, or testing “rules” like putting bags over their own heads.
  • Francis: “I remember one time I put a plastic bag over my own head to see what would happen...and nothing happened.” [11:20]
  • Jerry: “Every door that said do not enter, I went through.”

4. Wedding Crashing Saga & The “Rhode Island Iced Tea”

[25:29-39:14] (Peak story segment!)

• Jerry narrates his and Dustin’s accidental crashing of a rough-and-tumble upstate NY wedding:
  • Sneaking through woods, “hone in like dolphins” on party noises.
  • Greeted by an unusual bar: “Men’s drink” (rum and Coke), “women’s drink” (vodka cranberry), and the “Barney”—a wild mix of all four.
    • Harry: “That’s like a Rhode Island Iced Tea. That’s a ridiculous drink!” [28:31]
• Hilariously awkward interactions:
  • Warden of a max security prison tells them about famous inmates.
  • Dustin (of Asian descent) trolls with bizarre fake backstories: “I’m from North Korea.” Leads guests to attempt speaking broken English for comic effect.
  • Dustin’s antics and escalating awkward moments almost get them in trouble—a “shoulder check” from a wedding guest signals time to leave.
  • Francis: “That guy shouldered Dustin for us being wedding crashers who were probably taking the piss. And he knew it.” [36:08]

5. Horror Movies: Fun or Punishment?

[20:23-21:11]

• Debate over the appeal of horror movies, especially at home vs. in theaters.
  • Jerry: “Your recommendations for horror movies are pretty good, I’m gonna give you that.”
  • Francis: "Why would I want to be scared in my sanctuary?" [20:50]

6. Travel, Geography & Regional Bickering

[45:08-67:38]

• Spirited debate on which U.S. state is best (Maine vs. New Hampshire vs. Vermont).
• Frustration at rental car services and the woes of traveling to rural Maine to fish (“I got banned from Zipcar for no reason!”)
  • Jerry: “If only you had a friend who would be willing to lend you a car…” [48:31]
• Thought experiment: Is America the best place for international travel?
  • Jerry: “I think the answer is definitively no.”
  • Harry: “The best place you’re flying from is Israel...You could go to Asia, you could go to Europe."
  • Francis: "It makes you wonder if America is the best place to live for travel."
• Off-topic riffs include the Iron Dome, in-air airplane refueling, and Europe’s advantage as a travel hub.

7. American Companies, Ethics, and “Manhood”

[16:09-18:34]

• Joking admiration for the names and “branding” of defense contractors.
  • Jerry: “What do you like about [Lockheed Martin]?”
  • Jerry: “I like the name. And I like what they do.” [16:25]
• Light musing on the morality of working for bomb manufacturers, with arguments about national defense vs. the ethics of creating weapons.

8. Socialism vs. Democratic Socialism (A Rarely Serious Moment)

[54:38-58:06]

• Jerry attempts an on-the-fly summary (with digital help) of the difference:
  • “Democratic socialism believes still in having multi party democracy, free elections…whereas socialism is like Marxism—authoritarian, centralized, etc.”
  • Francis: “I just don't trust it…I'll Google things not intending to ask AI and then they'll give me an answer and I’m like, well immediately that’s not right.” [58:06]

9. Indian Identity & Subtle Barstool Baiting

[59:51-61:14]

• A bit on Indian identity and confusion around Asian geography.
  • Francis: “India is a bit of a curveball for the Asian look—they kind of did their own thing.”
  • Jerry: “That's like me saying I'm a North American, you know?”

For New Listeners

This episode is a classic mix of high-energy, low-stakes banter—a combination of genuine dilemmas (travel, finding purpose post-college), group storytelling, and biting observational humor. The title “Rhode Island Iced Tea” encapsulates the episode’s tone: the hosts take seemingly random ingredients (stories, news, personal failings) and mix them into something weirdly potent, surprisingly honest, and always funny.

If you like high-velocity group chatter with offbeat stories and running inside jokes, Son of a Boy Dad delivers. This episode is as much about the rocky, hilarious path from adolescence to “manhood” as it is about the specifics of New England hayrides or upstate wedding etiquette.

[Jerry]

My friend offers me a nice gift.

[Francis]

I said I would have some after.

[Harry]

And I said it's hot.

[Francis]

I can't do pre show meal.

[Harry]

It's nice. It's like an exact amount of fuel that you need.

[Jerry]

This is really nice.

[Harry]

Isn't that nice? Here bro, have yours.

[Jerry]

You need to have some here.

[Harry]

Don't be a scumbag.

[Francis]

I don't think I'm being a scumbag.

[Harry]

You are definitely being a scumbag.

[Francis]

I'll have it after.

[Harry]

It's not going to be hot.

[Francis]

I'll heat it up.

[Harry]

It's not.

[Jerry]

No.

[Harry]

Heat it up how?

[Francis]

Throw it in the microwave.

[Harry]

It's not how you do a. I'll.

[Francis]

Bring it back down to the truck. Throw her back on for a couple minutes.

[Harry]

It's not. It's not a truck. I'm telling you. It's a four foot lady.

[Francis]

All righty. Welcome back to the Son of a Boy dad podcast. Today it is.

[Harry]

It is October 21st.

[Francis]

October 21st. It's 11:11am Make a wish.

[Jerry]

October goes faster than any month of the year.

[Harry]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

Probably stand on that business.

[Harry]

They kind of go all the same rate, just the standard rate of time.

[Jerry]

You know, October more than ever.

[Harry]

I'm with. You and I are on the same page always. Because I brought in tamales as a treat for all of us. I have my tamale. Francis wolfed his down as I glared him. Glared at him. And Francis won't touch it. Or Sash won't touch his tamale.

[Francis]

No, I said I'll have my tamale after the show.

[Harry]

It's a hot, hot tamale. Tamale. You want a cold tamale?

[Francis]

I think I'm gonna throw it in the air fryer when I get home.

[Harry]

Look how moist it is.

[Francis]

Get a little extra cooking on it. Make sure it's. All the bacteria is gone.

[Harry]

Why would there be any bacteria? That's street phobic.

[Francis]

You got. You got it on the street.

[Harry]

Yeah. You're xenophobic.

[Francis]

Xenophobic.

[Harry]

You're deeply racist if you don't eat the street meat.

[Jerry]

Literally.

[Francis]

He bought those on the subway.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

On the way over.

[Jerry]

You eat Domino's three in the morning. So different.

[Francis]

That's different. That's clean and these are clean.

[Harry]

These are front facing immigrants. I buy from. You're buying from back of house immigrants at the Domino's who aren't even like the cash register.

[Francis]

Domino's is. It's, you know, it's a proper restaurant.

[Jerry]

His immigrants are hearing the footsteps of ice.

[Francis]

Oh, yeah.

[Harry]

They have to be mobile.

[Jerry]

You know how like when you throw a pass over the middle and like your slot receiver.

[Harry]

Right.

[Jerry]

Won't catch it. Footsteps.

[Francis]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Jerry]

They're hearing the. The boots.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

Of ice.

[Harry]

Exactly.

[Francis]

Tramping ever towards tamales. Hot.

[Harry]

They're always just like ducking.

[Jerry]

They're one undercooked churro away from heading back.

[Harry]

And that's how they, that's how they determine it. If you give rotten street Food. The ice will be on your ass.

[Francis]

Yeah, a churro. You brought a churro in?

[Harry]

No, that's so have you ever had a subway churro? The subway churros are the most disgusting thing. They've been there since the 1970s. It's the same stack of like 200 high churros. You know the ones I'm talking about?

[Jerry]

Of course I do. And I never understand how that works because I don't know who's like, oh, I got three minutes till the A train. Just enough time for a churro.

[Francis]

Oh, thank God. Like the lady, the lady walking by. Yeah, thank God. I was starving.

[Harry]

You buy a bag and they fucking put 18 in there because they know that they're so bad that they might as well give you volume as opposed to quality.

[Francis]

Churro's got to be a pretty cheap, cheap product to make.

[Harry]

Yeah, it's tamale. Yeah, it's tamale and cinnamon.

[Francis]

Without the corn.

[Harry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Harry]

Is it corn? What is the dough of churro?

[Jerry]

I would think it's just bread dough.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

And they fry it and then roll it. It's pretty much the same thing as fried dough.

[Francis]

Yeah. Better though.

[Jerry]

It is definitely fried dough special.

[Harry]

But they serve it at like high end restaurants now with like a mole chocolate dipping sauce.

[Francis]

Fried dough?

[Harry]

No, the churro.

[Francis]

Yeah, yeah, I've seen that.

[Jerry]

No, you haven't.

[Francis]

Yes, I have.

[Harry]

No, you haven't.

[Francis]

I've seen. Well, I've seen like, you know, photos, videos. I've never seen it in person. That was AI, But I, I, I thought you meant they started serving fried dough at restaurants. That would be funny.

[Harry]

What do you mean, like a funnel cake?

[Francis]

I don't know. Have you ever had fried dough at like a fair?

[Harry]

Yeah, like funnel cake is just fried dough.

[Francis]

Mm. He's never had fried dough.

[Jerry]

I don't know if you've, this is.

[Francis]

A man who's never had fried dough.

[Harry]

What's the difference? What do you think?

[Jerry]

Funnel cake? Yeah. Like funnel cake. Fried dough is to funnel cake. What, pounded out chicken cutlets are to a full breast? Yeah. Fried dough is like flat, a little bubbly.

[Francis]

It's like a naan. Yeah, that's fair.

[Jerry]

Yeah, but it's thin. It's crispy.

[Francis]

It's thin, like American.

[Jerry]

And if you're, if you're lucky, you'll get like a little pool of the.

[Francis]

Oil in one of the little bunch of powdered sugar.

[Jerry]

Powdered sugar. Brown sugar.

[Harry]

What is it? So what I had.

[Francis]

It's a fair food.

[Harry]

Is it a New England thing? Or is it.

[Jerry]

Could be.

[Harry]

Is it everywhere?

[Francis]

I have a hard time believing it is.

[Harry]

Fried dough, Sean, have you had fried dough?

[Jerry]

See, I'm thinking it might be a New England thing.

[Francis]

Dude, this is news to me.

[Jerry]

It's great.

[Francis]

You should try it.

[Jerry]

Yeah?

[Harry]

Yeah. Funnel cake is just like. It's just. It's drizzled like. Yeah.

[Francis]

Interesting.

[Jerry]

I never really.

[Francis]

Maybe I've never had funnel.

[Jerry]

I don't think I've ever had funnel cake.

[Harry]

Really.

[Jerry]

I'm quite sure I've never had.

[Harry]

Maybe we're talking about the exact same thing as corn and maze. I think I've never. I've never had maize.

[Jerry]

Speaking of corn mazes, have you guys ever gone to haunted hayride? Did you have those?

[Francis]

Yeah, but of course I don't think I ever went to like a real one.

[Harry]

They're awesome.

[Jerry]

Why didn't you go to the real ones?

[Francis]

Like a haunted house? No, haunted hayride.

[Jerry]

Haunted hayride. I said hayride. And don't you dare tell me I.

[Francis]

Said no, no, you said, hey ride. I'm just trying to a. Get a good idea of what, what to picture here.

[Harry]

We're talking about now. You're on the back of a truck that has bales of hay and people sit on it and there's frights and spooks.

[Francis]

I've been on the back of a hay truck or of a truck while people sit on hay. But we weren't telling scary stories.

[Jerry]

Ours was either. It's not like a do it yourself spookathon. It's. It's more like they. They have people in the woods with masks on and chainsaws.

[Harry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

And it's like a drive thru horror or. Yeah, it's like a. Yeah, we.

[Jerry]

We had a really good one in Gorham, Maine. It was really scary.

[Francis]

I'm sure.

[Jerry]

And the tractor with the. The hay tractor part was pulled by a tractor. It was pulled by a tractor at one point that. The real big spook of the whole time was when they had an 18 wheeler that out of nowhere would turn on its lights and drive at you like and stop. Because they had some logs that would stop it quickly as if it was gonna hit you.

[Harry]

Imagine being the driver of that, just getting whiplashed every time.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

I mean like the tush push. You're like me.

[Jerry]

These were kids.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

You know, kids driving the 18 wheeler. Kids driving the tractor.

[Francis]

That's crazy.

[Harry]

That is nuts. I went to one recently and they had like a haunted monster truck that you could rip through a cornfield like you sit in the back of it and strap in, like six people at a time. It was sick.

[Jerry]

That is cool.

[Harry]

It was like an outdoor one. You could booze beforehand. There was an area for the adults. You kind of get a. Almost like a cabana type area, and you're just boozing. You have a section to booze.

[Francis]

Where was this?

[Harry]

Probably Pennsylvan, rural Pennsylvania, years ago.

[Francis]

Oh, I thought you meant you went, like, last week.

[Harry]

No, I didn't want to go back with children. There's so many activities for children in the fall.

[Jerry]

I know the most daring people on the hayride would sit on the end with their legs dangling off, and I would do that. And then I would wiggle them to make sure that the guys in the masks kn. I wasn't that scared. You're not doing the job well enough.

[Harry]

Have a boyish joy to you.

[Francis]

Yeah, yeah. I never. I never went to one of those. I've been to. I went to a couple haunted houses, I think, but when I was very young, I was never big into it.

[Jerry]

What about. What about some of these interactive haunted houses? I'm sure we've talked about this before.

[Francis]

But when they, like, touch you.

[Jerry]

Yeah, the ones that are, like, truly psychologically traumatically altering.

[Francis]

Yeah. I don't.

[Jerry]

You go into a room and there's a woman being, like, suffocated with a plastic bag from Target or something, and she's, like, screaming. It was. You could just see the. The mouth part kind of going. And you're like, I only need a finger. Do you mind? Can I just save her life really quick? You can't. There's no way. The bag is taut. It's got duct tape around the neck. What are we doing here, people?

[Harry]

Did you guys watch Task?

[Jerry]

Still haven't.

[Francis]

Still haven't.

[Harry]

I thought this was second to last episode. No, something like that happens.

[Jerry]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Harry]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You guys saw that?

[Francis]

Of course.

[Harry]

That's how. Yeah, Just poke the finger through.

[Jerry]

That's a tough way. Tough way to go.

[Francis]

I don't think you could take me out with a plastic bag.

[Harry]

Oh, definitely. You could take without. You could take him out. Take you out with, like, a newspaper. A wet newspaper, I think would do the trick.

[Jerry]

Like a big glass of water drunk too quickly.

[Harry]

I think a fucking New York times from, like, 20 years ago could get you.

[Francis]

I remember one time I put a plastic bag over my own head to see what would happen, because I was like. Everyone was like, it's so, like, never Put a plastic bag on your head. So dangerous. And I was like, there's no way it's that dangerous. And then I put it over my head, and I was. I didn't, like, tighten it. I thought it was like, as soon as it went over my head, I was gonna, like, explode or some shit. And I put it over and nothing happened. Took it all.

[Harry]

How did you guys both do this? Is this.

[Jerry]

I had a morbid curiosity. Every. Every door that said do not enter. When I was a kid, I went through. Yeah, I went to. I remember going to a museum with my family, and there was a fire exit, and it had a sign that was like, dude, you know, fire.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

And I, like, walked up to it, looked around, and I just touched the metal bar that you're to push in. And immediately alarms throughout the museum went off. I didn't push it. I didn't compress it. I just touched it. And then a security guard came out. And to his credit, I mean, I was 7 or 8 or something like that. My face beat red. And he comes out and he, like, comes over and he turns a key to stop the alarm. And my parents had come grab me, and they'd realized I had set this off. And he came over and he was like. I was watching him through the security camera. Don't do it. Don't do it, kid. And he did it.

[Harry]

Oh, my God.

[Jerry]

But he wasn't mad, you know, Now.

[Francis]

I mean, that happens. That's got to happen all the time. Yeah, Kids love doing that. We had. We had so many kids. Like, I remember being in multiple, like, places where just a kid would pull the fire alarm and, like, the whole day was fucked.

[Harry]

Yeah, I mean, on this job, you've done that. On the Most Dangerous Game show, you grabbed a walkie talkie shouting Mayday into it.

[Francis]

That's a little different.

[Harry]

No, no, it's the exact same thing. It's not being able to control your.

[Francis]

Impulses a little bit, but different in a way. In a. In a different way. The fire alarm is like. You just got to take a couple. Like, just walk away, you know?

[Harry]

Same with the walkie talkie. Just walk away.

[Francis]

He's right by me all day.

[Harry]

Don't yell me.

[Francis]

It's like if you were walking around with the fire alarm, it's like you.

[Harry]

It's like when you. A cop's gun on his hip, and you're like, I could just grab it. The walkie talkie just dangling off that guy's waist, and you grabbed it off him.

[Francis]

Apparently, the Cops guns have like a certain holster now so that you can't grab it.

[Jerry]

It's got the button thing. Yeah. But if you know your way around, you can get in there, talk about the angle.

[Harry]

I am sure the only ones who are perplexed by it. What do I do here?

[Jerry]

I think that, you know, in lieu of meeting Travis Pastrana on my Make a Wish, what I would prefer is a day filled with being allowed to pull the levers and press the buttons that we are so forbidden from doing at our whole lives. So, you know, just one day on an airplane. It can be parked. I get to pull the emergency exit.

[Harry]

That's the most.

[Jerry]

Slide, unfurl. Watch the slide. Just totally.

[Francis]

Yeah, that would be nice.

[Jerry]

Like a tongue.

[Francis]

I wouldn't even hate just opening the door.

[Jerry]

Yeah, that'd be fun too.

[Francis]

Like just. Just doing the latch.

[Jerry]

Yeah, yeah.

[Harry]

That big red latch on the main door that everybody walks in. I mean, I feel like that. Would that immediately depressurize the cabin, kill everybody and suck everyone out of the plane or.

[Francis]

Oh, if you open that in the air. Yeah.

[Jerry]

Depends on your altitude, right? No.

[Francis]

Yeah, but it wouldn't. I don't think it would be good from any altitude.

[Harry]

How high? Skydivers open the door.

[Jerry]

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So if you're at. I don't know. I don't know where the altitude is.

[Harry]

That jump from 10,000ft, I feel like.

[Francis]

If you open one of those doors on a commercial flight at cruising altitude.

[Jerry]

Yeah, big trouble. Yeah, for sure.

[Harry]

50,000 or 40,000.

[Francis]

But even at like 10,000ft, I feel like that's going to be.

[Jerry]

Maybe. I think that those planes would be able to land with that door open, but I could.

[Francis]

Yeah, you're probably right. Like, I think those planes are pretty much.

[Harry]

But it's also. Just imagine trying to close the door as the fucking wind is going 700 miles an hour.

[Francis]

I don't think it's possible.

[Jerry]

This is one of those moments on the podcast where I'm going to either get 100 DMS being like, you fucking retard. You really think you can open a door on a Boeing 760?

[Harry]

No.

[Francis]

You definitely should be able to.

[Jerry]

Or it's going to be like, you were pretty close on that. I've worked in the federal FAA for 12 years, and here's what happens. It's a slight turn to the left, but most pilots can overpower it back to the right.

[Harry]

I can't even trust Boeing anyway, dude. They fucking kill all their own fucking Workers?

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

Yeah. Boeing's trouble. I've always been an Airbus man.

[Harry]

Big trouble.

[Francis]

Yeah. A three.

[Harry]

I can't believe how big Boeing is. It's a fucking massive company.

[Jerry]

I know.

[Harry]

So it's like you can. They can't even be responsible for all the. The deaths. Like, people who work there don't even know about the deaths. I'm grilling Boeing people all the time.

[Jerry]

You know who I really like, though, is Lockheed Martin.

[Harry]

The arms manufacturers.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

What do you like about them?

[Jerry]

I like the name.

[Harry]

It's such a good name.

[Jerry]

And I like what they do.

[Harry]

What is this Lockheed Martin?

[Francis]

I don't know what that is.

[Harry]

They make, like, weapons and bombs and they make rockets. Rockets, yeah.

[Jerry]

They make missiles and it's like a company. Yeah, yeah.

[Francis]

I didn't know that there was, like, companies that did that. I thought that was just like, only the military knew how to do that.

[Jerry]

No, the military does. Contracting through them. Right. So like the lock Martin is going to make the bombs and sell them to the military. That's their biggest contract for sure.

[Francis]

It's a tough business to be in.

[Jerry]

Why?

[Francis]

Because it's not like.

[Jerry]

It's not like national defense, like recession. Oh, you mean morally.

[Francis]

Yeah, it's not. It's like worse than being like a drug dealer.

[Jerry]

Yeah, but. Well, hold on a second again, that's a very leftist take of you. Most people would say, like, protecting the homeland, protecting America.

[Harry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

I mean, arming our.

[Jerry]

Our reserves and stores is a noble cause.

[Harry]

Definitely the best way to blow up Venezuelan ships for no reason.

[Jerry]

There you go.

[Francis]

And then you got to. Was that one of ours? One of our bombs?

[Harry]

But like, a little.

[Francis]

I'm sure that another guy's bomb.

[Harry]

Yeah, it could have been us. Plausible deniability. But you know how at, like, the Hershey's factory there are scientists who come up with innovative flavors for the next wave of Reese's Cups or whatever.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Harry]

Imagine being that guy at the Lockheed Martin factory being like, I got a hot new bomb. Vaporizes you.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

This one could take out the world. All right, maybe let's put that one up to the side for a little bit.

[Harry]

Just bomb creators, like bomb innovators.

[Francis]

I mean, it must. It must. Is it hard to make, like, a missile? Probably not. God, like, I mean, obviously, and I can't do it. But, like, if you, if you have the Reese, like, is it hard to get the resources to make.

[Harry]

If those gimps from the Boston bombing could make one, anybody should be able to make.

[Francis]

I didn't mean it like that. That's not what I meant. I didn't mean like, is it easy to make a bomb?

[Harry]

I meant like to make it fly through the.

[Francis]

It's not like those guys are building like hydrogen bombs.

[Harry]

But it's like if you just. If you can make a paper airplane and if you can make a bomb with a pressure cooker, then you can make a missile.

[Francis]

Yeah, I bet it's even easier.

[Harry]

Yeah, you just tape it to the back of the paper, take the big.

[Francis]

Tip, screw it on.

[Harry]

That's what the Hunt for Red October is kind of about. They're then going from like making like little rockets.

[Francis]

Yeah, I bet it's like setting up like a chair.

[Jerry]

Are you talking about October Sky?

[Harry]

Yes.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

What did you say?

[Harry]

The Hunt for Red October, which is.

[Jerry]

Like the Sean Connery submarine movie, which I'm like, did they have lower, smaller dreams and work their way up?

[Harry]

We're going to make some rockets.

[Jerry]

I don't remember the plot of the movie going that way.

[Harry]

Yeah. October Sky.

[Francis]

Did you guys watch that new horror movie? The one with the boy?

[Jerry]

No, you'll need to be more specific.

[Francis]

The A24 one. It's. It's with the little bald boy. He plays like the devil or some.

[Harry]

No, definitely not.

[Francis]

Really?

[Harry]

I can't believe that you don't. Like you didn't go to haunted houses, but you spend all this time watching horror movies. Wouldn't it be the same effect?

[Francis]

No, I also don't love horror. I was going to say I shut.

[Harry]

It off because you were so spooked.

[Francis]

It was too scary.

[Jerry]

It was too scary?

[Francis]

Yeah, it was just like I wasn't feeling it. It's too go. It was very gory.

[Jerry]

Your recommendations for horror movies are pretty good, I'm gonna give you that.

[Francis]

Which ones?

[Jerry]

Well, you told me to watch that one. Oddity. Oddity. And that my eyes were streaming. Yeah, that's my weird feared reaction. My eyes start to water. It's not tears. In the same way that, like, I don't know, squirt isn't pee, but it is kind of. I think it's like probably similar chemical compounds, two tiers way that got it. And people would be like, you're just making that up to make me feel better. And it's like, no, these are real. I'm one of the few people that actually does have the. The water ejaculate.

[Harry]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

When I see something truly terrifying.

[Harry]

Yeah. It's like your pee smelling like asparagus.

[Francis]

But yeah, that movie was great.

[Jerry]

Oddity.

[Harry]

Did you ever watch It. No, I don't like to be spooked by movies. I don't think that that's like a fun activity, a fun way to spend your movie watching time.

[Francis]

I kind of agree. Like, that's kind of. I go up, I go back and forth. Like, I only watch horror movies if I'm like, really in the mood for a horror movie.

[Harry]

What makes you. What puts you in the mood?

[Jerry]

Nice Sativa. Probably a heady sativa.

[Harry]

Really?

[Francis]

Yeah, yeah, I was gonna say like.

[Jerry]

A couple rips of the old Nikki Blazer.

[Francis]

Hey, I was gonna say just like, I like seeing horror movies in the theaters, but at home in my sanctuary, you can't bring. Why would I want to be scared in my sanctuary?

[Jerry]

You're polluting your space. Yeah, I get that. But you know what? The horror movies with your buddies are fun. Yeah, we could do that.

[Francis]

Yeah. Yeah, I know. Yeah, they can be fun.

[Jerry]

Got off on the wrong floor there a little.

[Francis]

They can be like awful though. Like, I remember me and my buddies when we were young.

[Jerry]

We.

[Francis]

We were. We were sleeping over at Peter's house.

[Jerry]

Matt.

[Francis]

Yeah. And we watched the Gallows. And I had to call. I think I texted my mom at like 3am and I was like, you gotta come get me.

[Harry]

Is the. Are their parents touching you or is there inappropriate drinking going on? Like. No, I have the. Will, get me out of here. The willy's really bad.

[Jerry]

I have self induced lack of sleep.

[Francis]

Yeah, that was like the last time I probably did that.

[Harry]

We could do either on the. On the trip to. To upstate. To your residence upstate. We could watch a horror movie. Or we could do it when we do our sleepover at the office.

[Jerry]

Would people want to watch us watching the sleepover?

[Harry]

Oh, then maybe we just.

[Jerry]

Excuse me. Horror movie.

[Harry]

Well, maybe when we just go upstate, we just do it off cam.

[Jerry]

I think that's a fun idea. Yeah. Yeah.

[Harry]

And just maybe we do check. And speaking of, we have. Do you want to. You want to show them the people that.

[Francis]

Oh, are we.

[Harry]

Should we Might as well.

[Francis]

Should we display.

[Jerry]

Hang on a second. Wait, wait, wait. I thought Pilar told us to wait because they're going to launch it for the Black Friday sale. And then people who bought it soon would be mad that I don't think.

[Francis]

It'S going to go on sale until the flash.

[Harry]

It's just Flash. Show them what's coming. And it just feels naughty if someone tells you not to see it, even it's pushing the button.

[Jerry]

You know, it's really just.

[Harry]

Son of a boy. Dad. Inaugural fishing trip, upstate New York, fall 2025. Hold that up square to the camera.

[Jerry]

Hold that up square. Square.

[Harry]

Square it. Square that. God. And that's the back of the shirt. Front of the shirt pocket.

[Jerry]

That's for all your dry flies. Your. You know, maybe like a nice couple pre. Pre rolls for Harry, whatever it is.

[Harry]

Small gun.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

Put a very small barrel.

[Francis]

The pocket is for the rest.

[Harry]

Yeah, the pocket is the man. Who are you talking to, brother? Know your audience, dumbass.

[Francis]

It's for the tits. It's to cover up the tits.

[Jerry]

But there's only one.

[Francis]

You need two.

[Jerry]

You'd be the guy with two breasts.

[Francis]

I sew on an extra.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

And then one across the. Yeah.

[Francis]

I just bought a ton of pockets online. They're great. You just got to sell them in.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

Then show them the other thing.

[Francis]

Oh, yeah. Sweatshirt.

[Jerry]

This one's really cool.

[Harry]

This is so weird.

[Jerry]

A boy. Dad.

[Harry]

And then on the Johan Sebastian smoking.

[Jerry]

Lounge, it's got some cigars and some whiskey and. What's that last part there? And a lot lighter. Yeah, we're talking butane lighter. Gentlemanly. There's a Geotech tag on there. HQ3HQ trace.

[Harry]

And you can. Yeah, it's just. That's just wearable stuff. That's just wearable merch. Earth tones.

[Francis]

Nice little Zippo lighter.

[Harry]

They call me Earth Tone Roan. You know, I need some earth tones.

[Francis]

Oh, yeah, same. Only earth tones.

[Harry]

Stay in earth tones.

[Jerry]

So do we have a sense of when we're launching those?

[Francis]

Black Friday.

[Jerry]

Yeah. Black Friday, I think, is the idea. Right?

[Harry]

Is it? Yeah, for one of them. I think it's Black Friday. One of them. Maybe before one of them. I thought one was going to be in accordance with that.

[Musical Guest]

That.

[Harry]

That trip upstate.

[Jerry]

See, this is why it doesn't matter.

[Harry]

It's good to just tease it because those are happening.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

It's better that people know that they can get. That we can get a little excitement. Foam in a little excitement. They asked.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

So we were delivering.

[Jerry]

We will give you the proper run out of all of that.

[Harry]

Now eat this tamale.

[Francis]

Oh, I'm all set for now.

[Harry]

Come on, brother. It's actually lukewarm right now. Yeah, I saw that on there. I was like, is that a bookmark? Was that poop?

[Francis]

I don't know.

[Jerry]

Eat it now. Chocolate.

[Harry]

Because that, like, I could see poop being at that part of your body.

[Francis]

If that was the case, we would. I would be like, we're restarting the episode. I don't think so. Yeah, yeah, we're not rebury. It turned out that blood diamond, I would say. All right, we'll just restart. No, start from scratch.

[Harry]

That's the gem. And we are not throwing it back in the river. Dude, we're not getting rid of a poop. Poop. A poop wrist.

[Jerry]

I have an outrageous thing to tell you guys. Speaking of upstate. So on Saturday night of this past weekend, I crashed a wedding for the first time.

[Francis]

Oh, wow.

[Jerry]

No, I was with my buddy Dustin.

[Francis]

Oh, hell yeah.

[Jerry]

And we were up at our place bombing around in a golf cart. It was dark. It was probably like 10:30 ish or something. And we heard really loud music. Really loud. Coming from what felt like close.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

And so we drove the golf cart to the edge of the property where we heard it loudest. And we would drive 20 yards, stop the cart and listen, and then turn around. Like we were honing in on it like dolphins. And we got our cart and we started to. It's pitch black. And we started to go through the woods. And, you know, we're wearing, like, golf windbreakers. Our sleeves are getting torn up by the brambles. At one point, we had to go down a very, very steep hill and we couldn't really see, and we slipped, and both of us ended up sort of slipping and sliding down this hill.

[Francis]

On the golf cart?

[Jerry]

No. Oh, we had parked the cart.

[Francis]

Oh, okay.

[Jerry]

Yeah. But we get to the bottom of the hill. Yeah.

[Harry]

Were you guys bombed?

[Jerry]

Yeah, we were pretty drunk. And we get to the bottom of the hill. We still didn't even know what we were going to. We didn't know what it was. Well, we just heard fun.

[Harry]

Some midsommar shit.

[Jerry]

Yeah. And we emerged through the last sort of wall of branches and things. And there was this outdoor pavilion that was sort of open air, and there was a bar that was manned by a man and a woman who were just part of the wedding. They weren't. There was no bartender. And then there was a dj. And pretty quickly we ascertained that it was a wedding. So we walked straight up to the bar, and we're like, hi. And they're like, where did you guys come from? And we're like, oh, we don't know. Yeah, we don't know where we are. But we heard fun. And if you guys don't want us here, like, we'll bounce. Just wanted to say hi or whatever. They're like, no, no, no, come in. The more the merrier. And they were like, let us pour you a drink. And we were like, okay, sure. The two the drink options. One was for the. She goes, for the men, we're making rum and Cokes. Oh, that's the men's drink.

[Francis]

That's interesting.

[Jerry]

And then the women. The drink for the women is a vodka cranberry.

[Francis]

Wow.

[Jerry]

I'm talking just cranberry juice and vodka.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

No seltzer at all.

[Francis]

That sounds awful.

[Jerry]

And then she goes. And then I created this special wedding cocktail that we're calling the Barney. And it's just those two drinks mixed together.

[Harry]

So they had four ingredients.

[Francis]

That sounds so bad.

[Jerry]

Rum, coke, vodka, and cranberry. And she goes. And they've been a huge hit. And I'm not kidding you, when she said that, a guy came up and basically cut in front of me and was like, can I have two Barneys, please? And she's like, on it. And she shook it.

[Francis]

Oh, no.

[Jerry]

She shook it all up together to mix it.

[Harry]

That's like a Rhode island iced tea. That's a ridiculous, ridiculous, ridiculous drink. What a crazy combination. Dude, that's gross.

[Jerry]

Oh, man.

[Francis]

So that's some shit you would drink in, like, high school.

[Jerry]

It's like the child equivalent of putting the soda under all the fountains. Like a little this, little that. I made a perfect drink. Yeah, so we. Whatever. We. We ended up just. She was like, why? We were like, why don't we do a shot? And she was like, oh, great, let's do a shot. And we did a shot with her and her husband and they just poured us shots of vodka. That was it. Yeah, vodka. I haven't done vodka shots in a long time.

[Harry]

Yeah, it's like tequila or whiskey. Those are the shot drinks.

[Jerry]

Vodka shots are what you take when you're trying to get a tapeworm dead in your stomach.

[Harry]

You wanna embalm from the inside.

[Francis]

I used to only take shots of vodka.

[Jerry]

Yeah, well, that's probably good for you somehow kill all that bacteria that's rotting your gut.

[Harry]

Yeah, you maybe need to go back to shots of vodka after the dominoes. Just get yourself right. What kind of vodka are we talking?

[Jerry]

Yeah, it was. Well, it was a plastic bottle for sure. You know, something like that. Roblov or whatever. Anyway, so blocks, we. We. We took these shots and then Dustin is a bit of a troll, and I realized that we were in a situation that was a little bit precarious because this was like a cross between a biker wedding and like, the guy that was with the woman pouring the drinks was the warden at a local maximum security prison.

[Harry]

A prison guard wedding, I think.

[Jerry]

I don't know if There were more people than him from the prison. I didn't. We didn't really talk to that many people, but there were people. Nobody was dressed in anything more dressy than a T shirt and jeans.

[Harry]

Oh, I was picturing a bunch of you at the wedding. No. Biker gang from task.

[Jerry]

No, no, no. This was like. Like we were wearing. Wearing nice golf attire was made a bad. It was an act of aggression.

[Harry]

So was the warden. Was he an overweight bald guy?

[Jerry]

He had a buzz cut and he had scars and stuff like that.

[Harry]

Gross.

[Jerry]

And he started telling us about some of the prisoners, like the high profile prisoners that he kills and he beats.

[Francis]

The out of he knows on a.

[Jerry]

Daily basis and like, says good morning to.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

Even though they, like, are in there for quadruple murder.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

Children or something.

[Harry]

In fact, there's one of them over there getting married.

[Jerry]

But they were mostly pretty receptive to us. And then the DJ announced that it was going to be the last song. And the warden and his wife pulled both me and Dustin onto the dance floor. And I don't know why, but the four of us were like doing this weird square slow dance together with our arms around each other. And the warden was huge. I had to reach up, but he had his arm around my shoulder. And like, Dustin and I were like, kind of touching. But that felt gay. And I don't know, somehow it worked. We were talking, but Dustin being Asian.

[Harry]

What?

[Jerry]

Started trolling.

[Francis]

Have I met Dustin?

[Jerry]

I don't think so.

[Francis]

I think I did.

[Jerry]

You may have.

[Francis]

I think I met him up there. Yeah, yeah.

[Jerry]

That's possible, people. Yeah.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

Stud.

[Francis]

Real troublemaker, though.

[Jerry]

Real troublemaker. Yeah, he is. And he was like. When we did the shot, they were like, to long marriage or something. And Dustin was like, ooh, I don't know. I recently caught my wife fucking my brother. Like, marriage doesn't sit well with me.

[Harry]

Anymore at the wedding.

[Jerry]

And then the warden was like, I had a very similar experience with my first wife. And somehow they like, like, bonded. And I was like, wow, that was a big swing.

[Harry]

Yeah, but he fucking.

[Jerry]

But okay. And then Dustin, they were like, so, where are you guys from? And I was like, I'm from Maine. And Dustin goes, north Korea.

[Francis]

And they go.

[Jerry]

They go, is that the good one or the bad one? And he goes, it's the good one. Oh. And they were like, that's so funny because there's a huge group of North Koreans that live in town. And then we, like started talking about this pocket of North Koreans. And she was like, and it's too bad, you know, because they don't speak English that well, but they make the best Chinese food. And he. She goes, so when I call them to order my food, I have to. I have to speak English their way so that they understand. And Justin was like, show me. Oh, no. And then she reenacted how she speaks broken English to perceived North Koreans making Chinese general South Chicken.

[Harry]

Can we. Can you do what it sounded like, please?

[Jerry]

It was so far off. It wasn't even close to.

[Harry]

That's why I want to hear it.

[Jerry]

I know. But she would be like, hello. Like, she wasn't. Ring her. Ls.

[Harry]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Francis]

I thought she was gonna do.

[Jerry]

We were so excited to hear something very funny. And she just spoke, like, halting, busted English.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

But the unbelievable, like, tangle of the.

[Harry]

Fact she's bragging about that. Like a skill that she has.

[Jerry]

Yeah. And we. For the rest of the night, it was like, just. We were just talking about the North Koreans in town.

[Francis]

Yeah. I hate to break dawn out there.

[Harry]

Yamoni park or whatever went right to upstate New York. Francis, I hate to break this to you. That couple was trying to. You guys.

[Francis]

Yeah, big time.

[Jerry]

Boy. Well, that's possible, because. Oh, you know what? Then she said, how are you guys getting home? And we said, we're gonna just hike back up through the woods. And she goes, don't do that. I'll give you guys a ride.

[Harry]

Yeah, see?

[Francis]

And she's trying to.

[Jerry]

I was worried that she was pretty shitfaced. And so I was like, no, that's okay. We're gonna just go. And we started sort of fading into the woods. And she was like, wait, no, I'll give you a ride. And then Dustin. Dustin had told them as you guys.

[Francis]

Like, walked into the Voice.

[Jerry]

Yeah. We just kind of, like, feel the dreams just straight up faded into the corn.

[Harry]

And this is my only chance. I'll do the Chinese voice again.

[Jerry]

Dude. We knew. I knew it was time to go, because Dustin. Dustin.

[Harry]

Then.

[Jerry]

Then. Then they were. After he told them about his wife being. Walk. Like, walk. He. His. Him walking in on his wife with his brother.

[Harry]

He.

[Jerry]

They were.

[Harry]

And did that.

[Francis]

Did that happen?

[Jerry]

No.

[Francis]

Yeah. Okay. That's what I thought.

[Jerry]

He's just throwing out to entertain himself, but respect. Then I was. Then he was. They were like, what about you? Are you married? And I don't know why he said this, but he goes, no. So his wife ran away with a mountain lion. And I was like, dude, that's too far. You know, like, that's Too obvious. And now they're gonna think you're fucking with them. But they didn't. They laughed. He had read like, he had them read, and I had them misread. Except when we were close to the dance floor, a couple came through. Big guy and his wife. And Dustin was holding his barney, and the guy shouldered him in the back, and it knocked the drink out of.

[Harry]

His hand on purpose.

[Francis]

It was time to go.

[Jerry]

It had to have been. I mean, there were at that. This point in their wedding, there were only, like, 18 people left.

[Francis]

Oh.

[Harry]

So did you think the guy shouldered him for bringing you guys around, or do you think it was some inner biker gang type?

[Jerry]

I think the guy shouldered him for us being wedding crashers who were probably taking the piss. And he knew it.

[Musical Guest]

It.

[Jerry]

But they. Dustin also told them I was a comedian, and they kept being like, go up and take the mic. And I was like, this is the one time in my life where I kind of want to.

[Harry]

You should have.

[Jerry]

You should. I don't want to go up there.

[Harry]

You were hired.

[Jerry]

And I'm going through the jokes from my act that might land with this group. I'm like. And it would be all, like, the marriage stuff, like, trying for kids.

[Francis]

Yeah, yeah.

[Jerry]

All that. And I was like, I have some. I have, like, three minutes. That might work. York with this incredibly hostile crowd in the woods.

[Harry]

And they're definitely armed.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

And where, like, I can't even picture, like, a road out of here. Was there, like, a venue? Was it just a tent.

[Jerry]

Long dirt road? So I think this place was a hunting and fishing club. Dude. This was straight up, you know, Deliverance. I don't want to say, like, White Power either. Sounds like it wasn't far off.

[Francis]

It sounds like if you're.

[Jerry]

They'd, like, a lot less and less than they liked me.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Harry]

No.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

It's like In Red Dead 2, when you're, like, walking in the woods and then you come across the KKK and you're like, oh, yeah, it's like that.

[Jerry]

Yeah. But I say that they were incredibly nice. They were incredibly nice. The bride and the groom were nice.

[Harry]

What about the guy that shouldered Dustin, though?

[Jerry]

That guy shouldered Dustin. Dustin.

[Harry]

Oh.

[Jerry]

And the rest of everyone was giving us some pretty foul looks. There were people in true motorcycle vests. There were a couple guys in motorcycle vests. I mean, it was. It was unlike anything I'd ever experienced.

[Harry]

Do you think that if a guy. If a guy had gotten sticky, what was your exit plan? Into the woods.

[Jerry]

Run.

[Harry]

But was Dustin on The same page. Is he pretty fast?

[Francis]

He's quick. He's quick.

[Jerry]

Yeah. He played.

[Harry]

He played the cello.

[Jerry]

D1 sports. I don't know. I don't know. I don't think the problem, too, was that Dustin was more drunk than I was, and he was not carefully towing the line of, like. Don't ruffle feathers. This could be a tough situation. We're. We're not welcome here, so we're, like, hanging on.

[Francis]

Yeah, yeah.

[Jerry]

You know, but he made it.

[Harry]

Like, he wasn't wrong.

[Jerry]

We made it because I said we have to go after the shouldering thing.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

I said it's time we have.

[Harry]

Oh, really?

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

Oh, based on the shouldering.

[Jerry]

Yeah. So it was.

[Francis]

It was an aggressive shouldering. Like, it was fully.

[Jerry]

He was holding his drink like this. The whole thing got knocked out.

[Francis]

Oh, yeah.

[Jerry]

He almost knocked him over.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

It was a bang.

[Harry]

Damn.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

So it was a body check.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

I don't remember inviting any agents. Maybe I'm wrong. Honey, check the guest. Let me put it in terms you understand. Ching chong, ching. Get the out.

[Francis]

Oh, God. That's exactly what I was picturing. That's crazy. Just in the woods, too?

[Harry]

Yeah, in the woods, they have a.

[Francis]

Big fire going with a cross.

[Jerry]

They had. They had one heat lamp that everyone was sort of huddled under for the most part. I mean, it's cold at this point.

[Harry]

How are they playing music? A dj and was there a dance floor? Was it like grass?

[Jerry]

It was all under a big wooden kind of pavilion, but that had no. It was outdoors, so there was a roof, but. And then it was wood underfoot.

[Francis]

Oh, nice.

[Harry]

Kind of like. What's that movie that just came out? The Michael B. Jordan one?

[Jerry]

I didn't see that.

[Harry]

Sinners? Yeah. Were there ghosts playing hip hop music?

[Jerry]

They were not playing hip hop.

[Francis]

Were there vampire. Vampires? If they could come into your house.

[Harry]

Could they have been vampires?

[Jerry]

That was a lot of country.

[Harry]

I. I was looking up, like, just, like, information about the western coast of Maine, and it looks fascinating. Like the north, northern and western part that hugs Canada. It's like the least. One of the least densely populated parts of the United States.

[Jerry]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Harry]

There's like 6, 0. Like, the whole back half of Maryland or something.

[Jerry]

Yeah, Or Maryland, Maine.

[Harry]

Jesus.

[Jerry]

Sort of on the Canada. And is that New Hampshire up there or is it Vermont at that point? Brother, you're the me. I'm embarrassed. Well, I'm honestly, I've never been up there. Maine is gigantic as far as land goes. And I know that after a certain Point. It's like logging roads. And I know this because in Covid. Yeah, let's see here. Son of a boy. Dad is brought to you by Game Time. We love Game Time here on the show. We've all used their incredible app and ticketing services on numerous occasions. Most recently, I went to Operation Mincemeat on Broadway. They hooked it up absolutely fantastic. And right now, college football season is in full swing, which means tailgates, cheering crowds, and the excitement of being in the stands before kickoff, that's all happening, too. You ever been at a tailgate? You went out. Let's just get out to the parking lot. I want to be part of the action, but I don't have a ticket to the game. Well, if you're in there and you decide last minute you want to go, that's where Game Time comes in. The app gives the advantage back to fans. It's the hack for unlocking amazing tickets and experiences in a few tabs. One thing I love, by the way, about the Game Time app is that the ticket price that they list on their interactive map includes all fees and taxes. So you know exactly what you're paying. Paying.

[Harry]

You don't get to that last page and you find out that it's $500 more correct.

[Jerry]

@ which point now you have to make another calculation of like, how do I want it that bad?

[Harry]

It's called all in pricing.

[Jerry]

It's nice. I. So anyway, that's. That's Game Time. I. I think you guys get the.

[Harry]

Idea speak for itself. It's the best.

[Jerry]

Maine. It's New Hampshire all the way up. But Maine.

[Harry]

New Hampshire rules as well.

[Jerry]

Yeah, Maine is New Hampshire.

[Harry]

Shits on Vermont.

[Francis]

Can I just say that I don't know about that.

[Harry]

Vermont thinks it's the key.

[Francis]

I don't know about that.

[Harry]

It is not. I don't know how many New Hampshires over.

[Francis]

I don't think you've been to New Hampshire.

[Harry]

Of course I've been to New Hampshire once and it towers over. New Hampshire's got measly little Vermont. Vermont thinks that it's the king.

[Francis]

New Hampshire's got some bad areas.

[Harry]

Yeah, badass areas. New Hampshire smacks around, city boy. Vermont Sit on the curb. Your wife.

[Francis]

It doesn't even come close.

[Harry]

No, that's exactly what it is.

[Francis]

New Hampshire's got some decent stuff. It's no Vermont beautiful. No, it's no Vermont.

[Harry]

Second only to Maine.

[Jerry]

I think Maine's better than both New Hampshire and Vermont.

[Harry]

Yeah, I said second to Maine. I'm not on Maine.

[Francis]

I almost went to. I almost went to Maine last weekend for a day.

[Jerry]

What for?

[Francis]

To fish.

[Jerry]

With whom?

[Francis]

Bo? Yeah, he got cold feet, couldn't take it. I was like, I'll fly in. Cuz I was going to go fishing on Saturday and I got banned from Zipcar and. And the Hertz by my apartment closed the.

[Harry]

Do you mean you got banned off Zipcar?

[Francis]

Zipcar is like a failing business. So they'll just ban you.

[Harry]

Like, so they want people.

[Francis]

Yes, exactly. They want people to stop using Zipcar. Like it's going under.

[Jerry]

They're trying to phase you out.

[Francis]

Yeah, so I got banned a couple years ago for no reason. Like, they didn't tell me. I just got an email that was like, we reviewed your account. You're no longer your band.

[Harry]

It cannot. It can't have been for no reason.

[Francis]

It said it was because of my record, my driving record. They were like. We did a. We did like an anonymous check. I've been pulled over twice my entire life.

[Jerry]

Both times Zip cars.

[Francis]

No, neither. They just like, checked my, like, driving record.

[Jerry]

Can they check the way that you have driven? Sort of.

[Francis]

That, you know, we're talking like Toyota Corollas, but maybe.

[Harry]

What if there's like satellite or speed camera tickets or something?

[Francis]

Oh, I drive very carefully.

[Harry]

You ever know speeding tickets that went to Zipcar? Maybe because it was their car?

[Francis]

Never. I haven't been pulled over since I.

[Harry]

Was in high school. But I'm saying if.

[Francis]

I haven't gotten ticket since I was in high school. Yeah, I've been pulled over since.

[Harry]

So they're just bigoted against the youth?

[Francis]

Pretty much.

[Jerry]

How many times you've been pulled over?

[Francis]

Four, five.

[Harry]

Whoa.

[Jerry]

Really?

[Francis]

Yeah. But I only got a ticket. Like, I got a T twice for speeding in high school.

[Jerry]

Both.

[Francis]

I got a ticket from both of those. Then once because I had a headlight out and then once when I was going. Remember recently when I was in Atlanta, I got pulled over going to Denny's for sitting sideways. Yeah.

[Jerry]

For.

[Francis]

For now. I got pulled over because my headlight.

[Jerry]

Was out on a. In a rental car. Yeah. Why do you keep. What. How does that keep happening? I don't know.

[Harry]

It's bad luck.

[Francis]

I didn't even know.

[Harry]

That's God, that's.

[Jerry]

God, that's crazy. Are you. Are you. What do they do when you have a headlight out in a rental car? I mean, they can't possibly get mad at you. No.

[Francis]

I guess in Atlanta they pull like outside of Atlanta, they pull over a lot of people.

[Harry]

People. They put the headlights out on purpose to be like, let's check up on our citizens. It's illegal to stop, but not if it's blinking at us. Winking at us.

[Francis]

Yeah. So I can't go fishing within here really anymore because I don't have access to a car. So.

[Jerry]

If only you had a friend who would be willing to lend you a car.

[Francis]

Well, this was pretty last minute. I thought about that.

[Jerry]

But at any time.

[Francis]

Yeah, yeah, I've.

[Harry]

I actually. My car actually off roads.

[Francis]

Yeah, Yeah, I know, bitch.

[Harry]

No you don't.

[Francis]

Yes, I do. I've been in it.

[Harry]

The. You don't know anything about it. Off roading.

[Francis]

Yeah, I do.

[Harry]

I have a new car since then. No, that's built to off road, you dumbass. You absolute rude.

[Jerry]

In fact, you actually can't drive it on road. It doesn't. Yeah.

[Francis]

Oh, I see.

[Jerry]

Okay.

[Francis]

It's just an off road.

[Harry]

It's an atv.

[Jerry]

The wheels start to smoke if they're not crunching up smelts. And you fool. It's like rain gloves in golf. They don't actually work when it's dry. It's like you gotta pour some water on them. Yeah, I like to.

[Francis]

I like to rub them on the green.

[Jerry]

Yeah. Touch the earth.

[Harry]

You gotta take the flight to Maine though. It's so much more enjoyable to get to Maine. If you could just take the one hour flight as opposed to the.

[Francis]

Oh, I've done that.

[Harry]

I've done six hour drive.

[Francis]

Yeah, definitely. But I was gonna. So that was my. Then I came up with this genius idea. I was like, how about do not.

[Jerry]

Do anything and stay home instead?

[Francis]

No, I was like, I'm gonna go. How about this? How about I fly to Maine? There's so many. Because I remember you were saying like there's so many flights.

[Jerry]

I checked.

[Francis]

There's like, if there's more flights to Portland, there are to Chicago.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

And there was like a. There was like a 7am flight gets in at like 8:30 and then there was like a 9pm flight that gets home at like 10:30. So I was like, I texted Bell. I was like, let's go fishing tomorrow. I'll fly in. Drop me off at the airport. I'll fly home. And then he was like, I'm down. And then I called him like 30 minutes later and he was like, I don't know, man. I've actually got work tomorrow, so. And I was like, well, that was pretty key. Part of the plan that you forgot to leave out out is that you're working the entire day.

[Harry]

You think he called into work? Maybe he, like, has seen how you've been treating Francis and he's like, if he's not going to be friends with Francis, he can't be friends with me.

[Francis]

He said that you DM'd him recently.

[Jerry]

I did, yeah.

[Francis]

Yeah. He's like, yeah. Francis hit me up the other day. I was like, oh, really?

[Jerry]

I said, give me your upcoming work schedule so that I can fly to MC Main and we can go fishing.

[Harry]

What if he, like, couldn't because you were there that day.

[Francis]

Francis is already down here. If you can get here in time.

[Harry]

Yeah, actually, I have work. It's better for we two. Man and Francis. There's only two seats on the atv.

[Francis]

Yes, but yeah, not a bad idea. I think I'm gonna definitely try to do that before the winter.

[Harry]

How much were the prices?

[Francis]

Same as. Same as. Same amount of money as it would have been to rent a zip car for a day, that's for sure.

[Harry]

How much is that?

[Francis]

A thousand dollars.

[Harry]

What?

[Francis]

No. Zip cars are so expensive.

[Harry]

What about Turo?

[Francis]

Even worse.

[Harry]

Really?

[Francis]

Also, they don't have any Turos near me. They're all in, like, Jersey or Brooklyn.

[Harry]

True, true, true. You could easily get TO Brooklyn's like 10 minutes away from your door.

[Francis]

See, that was like, I. So I could still go fishing, but then I have to. I would have to uber to Newark Airport and then drive from there.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

Or at that point, it's like.

[Jerry]

Or you could take a 12 minute subway to the York street station and then walk down into my garage and borrow my car for the day.

[Francis]

Yeah, but then it's like. And then when you're going, like, all of this would be fine if I wasn't coming in from Jersey.

[Jerry]

Okay. So you get my car, then you drive out, you go fish. And it's the weekend, so you can park on the street for free. Right. You leave your car in front of your house and then.

[Francis]

And drive it back.

[Jerry]

Promise me that you're gonna bring it home. But we both know that's never gonna go happen, so I'll just pick it up. That's.

[Francis]

I would never do that.

[Jerry]

On the way back from the office. Problem Solving.

[Francis]

Oh, yeah, Francis. Still got your car, by the way. What do you want me to do with that?

[Jerry]

Unfortunately, looks like both front windows are broken this time. So.

[Harry]

That's the New York you voted for. I know. Do you guys know who Curtis Lea is?

[Jerry]

Yes. Wow. Yeah, he's.

[Harry]

He's hilarious.

[Francis]

Sounds familiar.

[Jerry]

Mayoral candidate for New York right now who won't win because he's on the right, and it's going to be between.

[Harry]

He wears a red beret. He wears a raspberry beret. Like, he's got. Goddamn.

[Jerry]

He was in the Guardian Angels Real. Yeah. And. And maybe still is, but he might.

[Francis]

Have been at that wedding.

[Jerry]

His whole dude, his whole platform. Like, my. My grandmother was talking about him and remember being in New York in the 1970s when Curtis Sliwa and his guys would come on the subway and just stand on the subway? They still do that to make sure that didn't go wrong.

[Harry]

They've been doing that for 60 years. He just goes on with, like, dudes with red berets. I saw him walking around San Gennaro festival. It's like, maybe eight dudes in red berets, and half of them are, like, 17 year olds with, like, thin, wispy, ratty mustaches. And they, like, basically pound their fists and, like.

[Francis]

So they're just.

[Harry]

Anyone try.

[Francis]

They're just, like, protectors of the streets.

[Harry]

They're like plainclothes Batmans.

[Jerry]

Yeah, I. With it. Yeah.

[Francis]

No problems, huh? I said, I see no problem.

[Harry]

Yeah, exactly. No, there is no problems. They're trying to be protectors of the. Of the city. And he. They asked him if he ever rides Ubers or yellow cabs in the mayoral debate. And he was like, I haven't ever since I got shot in a. In a yellow cab in 1992 by the Ciceros and the Gerardes, like, saying, like, two crime families came up and found him in a yellow cab and shot him in, I think, in his ass or something like that, or his leg or something, because he was trying to take down the crime family. She was, like, very publicly anti crime. And they shot him in the ass. Two crime families at once shot him in the ass. Yeah.

[Francis]

That's not good.

[Harry]

They open either side, and they're like, you're here, too, and just shot his. He's such a fascinating character.

[Jerry]

Yeah, he.

[Harry]

Like, if you saw him in a movie, you'd be like, this is overwritten.

[Jerry]

Yeah. I don't know a ton about him, but you couldn't have three more different candidates for mayor of New York right now.

[Harry]

I see lots of tiktoks that are like, you shouldn't even fucking talk about politics if you don't know the difference between socialism and democratic socialism. What is. What is the difference, though?

[Francis]

I'm going to steer clear, Francis.

[Harry]

You have to know, just like the definition difference.

[Jerry]

My understanding is that. That democratic socialism still adheres to, like.

[Harry]

You know, don't say democracy no more.

[Jerry]

Like it's. It's not quite such literal socialism. You know, it's not like everybody should make an equal slice of the pie, basically. And that like health care and all those things should be run by the government. And it's. It's what. It's more diet socialism. Yeah, that's what it is. Yeah. They're not applying to the letter of the law. Somewhat like communal handout program maybe, but nobody cares about that difference. When you hear socialism in America, you hear the opposite of capitalism, which is what people subscribe to here. And I don't entirely understand how this guy Mumdani has. I mean, he's the runaway favorite to win the mayorship and he's like. Like the books have him at like 10 to 1 favorite or whatever. Yeah.

[Harry]

DraftKings has him fucking running away with.

[Jerry]

It like he's a 90% chance to win.

[Francis]

I heard him parlayed with Cooper cup over one interception last night.

[Jerry]

Yeah. Yeah, I'll look it up. I'm curious about that Clashy.

[Harry]

Is that the site that you can just, like, bet on people's, like, lives. You can bet on if, like, Trump's going to pardon Diddy and stuff like that?

[Francis]

I don't know know.

[Harry]

Or is that one of them you can like, delay payments and one of them you can bet on, like, wars happening and stuff like that. I forget which. It could be the same company. It should be.

[Francis]

It probably is.

[Harry]

I need to think of a tech company. I heard these AI companies are. Are it costs a billion dollars for. Or $50 billion for every gigawatt and they want to have 50 gigawatts of computer at these facilities.

[Francis]

Yeah. It's insane.

[Harry]

They're spending so much money. Where's the money coming from to make AI?

[Francis]

It's in. And dude, Nvidia's the. I think it's the highest traded company on the stock market right now.

[Harry]

What the is Nvidia up to?

[Francis]

Because every. Every single company in the world is buying every computer they can from Nvidia.

[Harry]

And they're just trying to make everything into AI companies.

[Jerry]

Yeah, here's. There's traditional socialism versus Democratic socialism. So it's. They both agree that there should be social ownership and economic equality, but the way they get there is different. So like democratic socialism believes still in having multi party democracy, free elections, all that stuff, civil liberties and it's very like anti authoritarian. Whereas socialism is like Marx Marxism where it's like the government is going to be the. The group that makes this happen and we don't mind getting behind a single party that is authority, authoritarian, centralized, etc.

[Harry]

Did GPT tell you this?

[Jerry]

It's the AI. It's the AI overview from Google, which I have found to be just one of those things that started happening in my life and is now one of my favorite things in the world.

[Francis]

Oh, I hate it.

[Jerry]

Why? I don't want to go hunting. I don't want to read summarizing a Wikipedia thing on democratic socialism. You got to read 14 paragraphs.

[Francis]

Yeah, but also, I don't know, I just don't trust it. Like I feel like it's just wrong. Like I. I'll ask it things all the. Like I'll Google things not intending to ask AI and then they'll give me an answer. Well, I'm like, well immediately that's not right. Like that's clearly not.

[Harry]

Well, the craziest part about it is there it's an Indian dude typing it in. It's just like processing, but he's flying through it. Like those places at the airport where you thought that it was like scanning the. Yeah, but it's really just a dude in Mumbai logging everything that he's taken.

[Francis]

Those data centers, there's not actually computers in them. It's just 40000 Indian dudes.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

Just cranking the AC. That's what the cooling systems are for. They're like, it's hot as in here.

[Jerry]

Yeah. AI was originally actually just Ajay and we couldn't translate that correctly.

[Harry]

So no one grinds like them. Have you ever seen the Tiktoks of the. The dude who has an Indian like repair shop and he's just like banging stuff all day. He goes through like 20 things simultaneously. It's so impressive.

[Francis]

That's what I'm trying to. I'm trying to get to a level where I can repair shit like that.

[Harry]

Yeah. Just like see a problem, fix problem.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

Do you see the white guys mimicking the people making Indian street food?

[Harry]

Food Classic.

[Francis]

No, I don't think so.

[Harry]

True classic.

[Jerry]

It's one of the funniest things.

[Francis]

I don't think I've seen it.

[Harry]

A true British Class. Are they British? They got it. I think so.

[Francis]

It makes more sense.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

It's not racist if they're British.

[Harry]

No. They had Indian people first. Yeah.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

It's only racist if they're American.

[Harry]

India is Britain, basically.

[Francis]

Exactly.

[Harry]

They're basically the same place.

[Jerry]

And a lot of British would say that England is now India.

[Francis]

Jerry and Mooc both didn't know that Asia. That India was in Asia. He was like this. We were interviewing a coach for our team, and he was like, yeah, I'm from Asia. He's like, that's. He's like, yeah, I grew up in an Asian household. And someone was like, oh. Like, really? And Jerry was like, you don't look Asian. And he was like, oh, I'm Indian. And he was like. And he was, like, in, like. Like, chicken tikka masala Indian.

[Harry]

India is a bit of a curveball for the Asian look. They kind of did their own thing. They kind of went rogue and just, like, had, like, a nice look. He.

[Francis]

The. The dude, Swaggy, the guy that we were interviewing, he called it a subcontinent.

[Harry]

Interesting. I mean, there's enough people, a billion.

[Jerry]

Don't they usually specify, like, East Asia versus Southeast Asia versus, like, they. That's the pockets or whatever?

[Francis]

Yeah, but it is all as Asia.

[Harry]

Yeah, but I haven't, until recently, like, that they. You would almost differentiate. You claim it differently.

[Jerry]

Yeah. I haven't heard too many people from India say they're Asian. Say that they're Asian. That feels. I don't know.

[Harry]

Maybe it was just to contextualize it to some barstool bros. That's like me saying, we're.

[Jerry]

I'm a North American, you know?

[Harry]

Well, if he said Indian, probably was just expecting Jerry to be like, so you're like a Cherokee. Yeah. You're Shawnee. What kind of Indian?

[Francis]

What, are you up in Wyoming?

[Harry]

Where you at?

[Francis]

Nevada.

[Jerry]

Yeah, I got confused about when I was coming up. I was taught that Australia was both its own country and its own continent.

[Harry]

And it is.

[Francis]

Right.

[Jerry]

Have we changed that classification since?

[Francis]

That would be nice.

[Harry]

I didn't have anything. I didn't change it.

[Jerry]

Who did you.

[Harry]

Oceania?

[Francis]

No, no. I was always under the impression it.

[Harry]

Was the same or New Zealand's part of.

[Francis]

I always, like, that's the best.

[Jerry]

Australasia. And I don't know where all these countries are starting to put. Why don't. Listen, I didn't change that. My. That wasn't me either. Okay. I don't know why they. But everyone seems to want to claim some piece of Asia. And that makes me worried.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

Because it's like, wow, China's got everybody on notice.

[Francis]

Exactly. Yeah.

[Harry]

They're trying to, like, geopolitically be like, oh, no, we've always been friends with him.

[Jerry]

Yeah. You can enter a different sport line when you want to come here from, you know, China.

[Francis]

How long of a flight is it from New Zealand or from Australia to China?

[Jerry]

From. I know that from New Zealand to Japan is 11 hours.

[Harry]

Really?

[Jerry]

I looked.

[Francis]

That's brute. Because you would think it would be, what, three.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

A lot less puddle hopper.

[Francis]

And then I guess I'll just wrap up the trip, head over to China for a couple days.

[Harry]

I thought I'd stop at Hawaii on the way to Japan. It's like, it does not work like that. It's actually weird. Way farther if you go that way instead of going over the top. Like, 10 hours to Hawaii and then 10 more hours to Japan. I thought they were right there. Yeah.

[Francis]

It makes you wonder if America is the best place to live for travel. Like, there are other countries.

[Jerry]

That's a good question.

[Francis]

Like, we can go to Europe.

[Jerry]

I think the answer is definitively no.

[Francis]

No. Okay. Why? Like, what's. What.

[Jerry]

What?

[Francis]

Give me your.

[Jerry]

Ask yourself. Where do you. You. Removing America from the equation, if you wanted to travel to different countries, what are the countries that you would want to go to?

[Francis]

Europe.

[Jerry]

Well, there you go.

[Francis]

But I.

[Harry]

But.

[Francis]

But you probably wouldn't want to go to those. Like, but it wouldn't be the same if you lived in Europe.

[Jerry]

I don't agree with that. I think. I think if you lived in France or Spain, like, those people go on vacation to, you know, Ibiza and the south, but they can also go up to Switzerland, Scandinavia to get a different slice of life. And then if they want the jump to, like, Turkey. And that area is not that bad.

[Francis]

Yeah, but that just sounds like America, I think, sneakily.

[Harry]

Right. The. The best place that you're flying from is Israel. That's like. Right. That's right in the middle. You can go over to Africa. You could go to Asia very easily. Asia is, like, so accessible if you're coming from Israel. Or you could go to Europe right there, pretty simply.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

But that's definitely what they were fight.

[Jerry]

So many of those flights. Yeah.

[Harry]

So many of those flights are what.

[Jerry]

The flights always get canceled from Israel because the runways and shambles.

[Francis]

Not in Israel. They got the Iron Dome that.

[Jerry]

That, you know, you get those still let a couple through. They're like Dr. Manhattan or like Dubai.

[Harry]

Or something like that. But that's too like, how do you.

[Francis]

Think they tested the Iron Dome when they made like, do you think they put it up and they, they're like, fucking hope it works.

[Harry]

It's like the cops who put on bulletproof vests and like, shoot me.

[Francis]

Yeah, yeah. And then they die.

[Jerry]

I think it is. I think it is Europe, though.

[Francis]

It's the premier destination. There's the. Not even destination.

[Harry]

It's the premier location.

[Francis]

Location. Wow.

[Harry]

To live.

[Jerry]

I have a friend who, he does a lot of business in Hong Kong and he goes there like once every two months for like two weeks. And he was like, dude, I can't live in America anymore with how much I have to go to Hong Kong. Kong. And they moved to Switzerland. Sheesh. And so now Switzerland, you'd be like, well, okay. But that's. The flight is cut in half.

[Francis]

Yeah, yeah.

[Jerry]

And then he can.

[Harry]

That is that much closer.

[Jerry]

Yeah. The flight to Hong Kong's what, 14 hours or some shit from here.

[Harry]

From here I thought it was seven hours.

[Francis]

I thought it was like a day.

[Jerry]

From here it's probably like 13, 14 or whatever. And then from Switzerland it's probably seven.

[Francis]

Yeah, seven's light too.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Harry]

Seven is California.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

In Europe you are making a trip to the far flung places you would want or need to go. The equivalent to what it is for us to go to Europe.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

And to that point I would even argue that in America there are completely different place, like living on the west coast in America, getting to Europe is a nightmare.

[Francis]

Oh yeah, big time. It's like, that's like a ten hour flight plus.

[Jerry]

Worse.

[Francis]

Yeah, 18.

[Jerry]

And a lot of the flights. You got it. Well, it's not that bad.

[Francis]

I know.

[Harry]

Okay, 24 hours.

[Jerry]

How much fuel do you think these planes can fucking hold?

[Francis]

A lot. I would, I would kill to be on a flight that gets. That gets refueled while we're in the air. You ever see that shit?

[Harry]

Yeah, the penis, the threading of the needle, the oil penis.

[Jerry]

Isn't that just military space though?

[Francis]

Yeah, yeah. But it would be cool if they did it to like a Boeing.

[Jerry]

You don't Singapore.

[Francis]

No, I don't.

[Jerry]

Your Airbus, man.

[Francis]

That's why Boeing would need it though.

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

Airbus would never need it.

[Harry]

Boeing's running out of gas.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

I do think that, I do think that it is Europe.

[Francis]

Yeah, that makes sense.

[Jerry]

Although Israel is a good take. I like that take. It's definitely not, let's put it this way, it's definitely not South America.

[Francis]

Yeah.

[Jerry]

You have to live Somewhat close to the equator, to the middle.

[Francis]

Yeah. Yeah, I agree. I think it's definitely Europe.

[Jerry]

Iceland's not a bad thought because a.

[Harry]

Lot of people go from the top.

[Jerry]

You're like four hours to the east coast of America or whatever and you're maybe five and then you're. Yeah, a couple hours to Europe.

[Harry]

Maybe we all go out to Iceland just as guys.

[Francis]

I would definitely go to Iceland.

[Jerry]

I don't want to go there again. I'm done with Iceland.

[Francis]

I'm dying to get back to Iceland, get another chance, get another cast in.

[Harry]

It's a fish.

[Francis]

Show them what I've learned. My time away.

[Harry]

All right. We good?

[Jerry]

Yeah.

[Francis]

Awesome. Thank you guys for listening. We will be back on Tuesday.
