Episode Overview

This episode features an in-depth and lively conversation with Harrison Fishman and Dylan Redford, the creative minds behind HBO's new docu-series "Neighbors." Hosted by the irreverent Barstool duo, the discussion covers the making of the show, outrageous neighbor disputes, the surreal world of nudist colonies, documentary filmmaking, and the wild journey of turning a passion project into a hit TV show. Throughout, there's plenty of trademark Barstool comedy and tangential riffing, but the heart is a sharp look at the quirks of American neighborhoods.

---

1. Introduction & Guest Background

(00:14–03:00)

• The hosts warmly greet Harrison and Dylan, noting their excitement to have them on.
• Light banter about podcasting experience, with the guests joking about how each podcast is a unique learning experience.

  "This will kind of unlearn." —Dylan (01:31)

• Harrison shares he's from Philly; Dylan is from the Bay Area. The group discusses how San Francisco has changed with tech industry influence.

---

2. City Banter: Philly & San Francisco’s Changing Vibes

(01:52–03:51)

• Conversation about growing up in Philly and San Francisco.

  "[San Francisco] just became this like kind of just... dudes who wear Patagonia vests. [...] It lost the edge it had." —Dylan (02:47)

• Jokes about the unique social life of both cities, naked sunning practices in SF, and the unorthodox benefits of "sunning your genitals."
  • "[My] dick has never seen sunlight." —Barstool Co-Host (04:02)

---

3. Taste Buds, Vitamin D & Oddball Science

(03:56–05:48)

• A surreal tangent about whether body parts have taste buds, and the best way to absorb vitamin D.

  "I've heard of sunning your asshole is the most efficient way to absorb vitamin D, I think." —Barstool Host (04:19)

---

4. Introducing "Neighbors": Concept and Approach

(06:12–08:27)

• The hosts gush about their obsession with the HBO show.
• Harrison & Dylan explain the premise:

  "A docu series where we follow real people around the country dealing with neighbor disputes in real time." —Harrison (06:41)

• The uniqueness: fly-on-the-wall documentation of disputes as they unfold, not in retrospect.

---

5. Cliffhangers & Character Attachment

(08:07–08:58)

• Discussion about the show’s narrative style—unresolved stories and “cliffhangers.”

  "You get obsessed with the characters really quickly... in episode three, it almost feels like, dangerous." —Barstool Host (08:37)

---

6. Dangerous Moments & Power Dynamics in Filming

(08:59–13:27)

• Breakdown of an intense episode with the character Johnny, who struggles with paranoia and threatens the filmmakers before quickly rationalizing it.

  "He said, I don't have children and you guys are going to go out and have children. ...Well, that I would threaten to kill your children." —Barstool Co-Host describing Johnny (11:30)

• Harrison & Dylan reflect on experiencing the discomfort of being filmed by their documentary subjects:

  "Anytime a subject would start filming us, it was like, oh. We were like, right, right, right." —Harrison (13:20)

---

7. How “Neighbors” Got Made: Grassroots Origins

(14:22–18:09)

• Harrison, Dylan, and Sam (Harrison's brother) make up the core crew; lean indie doc style.
• The show's first pilot episode (the Johnny story) originated from a small "proof of concept" grant from clothing brand Brain Dead.
• They pitched the show calling it an "HBO show" even before HBO was involved, to attract submissions via Craigslist.

  "When we were casting the pilot, we on Craigslist wrote this is for an HBO show. Even though it was not HBO for the next, you know, three years." —Harrison (17:37)

• They received thousands of submissions for neighbor disputes.

---

8. Editing Philosophy: Balanced Eccentricity

(18:13–20:31)

• The show intentionally withholds judgment, revealing "balanced delusion and eccentricity" in all parties.

  "The guy we thought was in the right has been watching Ellen DeGeneres live every day for ten years..." —Barstool Co-Host (18:29)

---

9. Cat Lady, Judge Judy & Real World Intersections

(20:23–23:48)

• Extended riff about the "Philly Cat Lady" episode, leading to disputes aired on Judge Judy.

  "People do that, you know, I mean, which is why we thought it was so interesting. Like, this is that it just makes that show also just feel more real." —Harrison (22:11)

---

10. The Volume of Footage; Editing for the Modern Brain

(24:35–25:46)

• The crew embeds for weeks; only ~15 minutes of footage make the final cut per storyline.

  "We spent pretty much every day around six to eight hours a day for two to three weeks per story." —Dylan (25:15)

---

11. Authentic vs. Performative: Are Subjects Acting?

(26:17–27:20)

• How the presence of cameras might affect behavior; the team tries stopping the question and accepts whatever is captured.

  "At a certain point, we stop caring because...whatever happens is real." —Dylan (26:25)

• Standout “Hot Mic” moment:

  "...she was like, can I tell them that you used my son's piss? And he's like, oh, no, absolutely not." —Barstool Co-Host (27:15)

---

12. From Filming to Fame & Money: Music Videos and More

(32:19–33:46)

• Before the show, they made prank internet videos, comedy sketches, music videos, and helped with other documentary projects.

  "We were making, like, Internet videos, basically. [...] Comedy Internet videos that no one watched." —Dylan (32:22)

---

13. Recent Music Video Talk & Britney Spears Honesty

(34:11–36:15)

• Tangent about the decline of music videos and the nostalgia for iconic ones (Britney Spears, A$AP Rocky).
• Reflection on teenage awakenings via pop culture:

  "Never knew I had an erotic fixation on flight attendants until that." —Barstool Co-Host (35:03)

---

14. Neighbor Dispute Confessions All Around

(36:18–38:10)

• The guests share their own mild neighbor dispute—editing the show next door to three different DJs blasting music.

---

15. Technical Filmmaking: Cameras, Style, and Coen Bros

(38:17–40:20)

• Discussion about using a 360 camera for unique confrontation shots.
• Inspired by the Coen Brothers' direct, "middle-of-table" camera placement for dialogue:

  “He doesn’t do the over the shoulder shot for dialogue. He puts the camera right in the middle of the table.” —Barstool Co-Host (39:37)

---

16. The Surreal World of Nudist Colonies

(46:01–54:13)

• In-depth behind-the-scenes of filming an episode in a nudist colony.
• Both filmmakers got nude to gain trust:

  "We filmed nude a lot of the time." —Harrison (46:16) "I was just like spread eagle for like hours, like staring at our subject just with my dick out and recording them." —Dylan (46:38)

• “Butt rugs,” boner protocol, and why dark towels are essential in nudist communities.

---

17. International Ambitions: “Neighbors” Abroad

(56:52–57:09)

• The hosts and guests dream up an international version: “A whole season is just subtitled…” (57:05)
• Fascination with how different cultures handle disputes.

---

18. Universal Neighbor Drama

(57:58–59:30)

• Even in rural America, with neighbors a mile apart, drama persists.

  "You learned from the first episode that there's almost no amount of land that exists where you wouldn't still be bothered by a neighbor..." —Barstool Co-Host (57:58)

• Sometimes, the show leads to diminished hostilities simply by letting both sides vent.

  "...both sides get to kind of exercise their anger at the same time. And I do think it kind of takes the temperature down..." —Dylan (59:52)

---

19. On-Set Danger & Responsibility as Documentarians

(60:21–62:49)

• Moments of real danger: the risks of guns on set, threats from subjects.
• Responsibility: balancing compelling storytelling with real people's lives.

  "We have to constantly check ourselves when we're making this show and remind ourselves that we are filming with real people." —Harrison (62:22)

---

20. The Future of “Neighbors” & Reality Doc TV

(62:49–64:19)

• Hopes for more seasons; the team wants it to be “the next Cops.”

  "We want this show to last as long as it can last... imagined it as the next Cops." —Harrison (63:17)

• Excitement about bringing authenticity back to reality television.

---

Notable Quotes & Moments

• On finding realness in reality TV:

  "Bringing realness back to reality TV again and like making it bring the doc approach to that kind of thing I think is exciting for us." —Dylan (64:12)

• On boner protocol in nudist colonies:

  "You carry around your butt rug. And so if in fact you get a erection, cover the erection with the butt rug." —Dylan (47:39)

• On filming naked:

  "I was just like spread eagle for like hours, like staring at our subject just with my dick out and recording them." —Dylan (46:38)

• On unresolved neighbor conflict:

  "You learned from the first episode that there's almost no amount of land that exists where you wouldn't still be bothered by a neighbor..." —Barstool Co-Host (57:58)

For Listeners

If you’re intrigued by the behind-the-scenes mechanics of documentary filmmaking, fascinated by American quirks, or just want to hear how an offbeat idea became one of HBO’s most bingeable new docu-series, this episode delivers.

Most Memorable Takeaway:
There is no amount of physical distance or social difference that can prevent neighbors from clashing—it’s just human nature, and with the right eye, those clashes can become unmissable television.

All righty. Welcome back to the Son of a Boy Dad Podcast. Today it is. It's March 11th, and we're here live from HQ3 and we're joined with our

[Barstool Host]

guests Harrison and Dylan, who, honestly, we just have been. We've been cooing about neighbors for a minute.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, yeah.

[Barstool Host]

So we're just. Yeah, we're pretty psyched to have you in. Honestly, I can't believe that it came together this. This quickly and this fortuitously for us. Hey, good work.

[Dylan]

Hey.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Thank you.

Oh, yeah, we're big fans. We love the show.

It's a treat.

[Dylan]

Oh, thanks for having us here.

[Harrison]

This is cool.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, of course.

Have you guys done any podcasts?

[Harrison]

We've done.

[Barstool Host]

I saw you guys on a Zoom call. I saw you on Au Run. A Zoom, I think.

[Dylan]

Right.

[Barstool Host]

And I saw you guys on a red carpet also.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

I'm glad you're keeping tabs.

[Dylan]

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[Barstool Host]

We've done a couple.

[Dylan]

We've done a couple. We're still learning. Still learning.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Cool. Well, this one will not add any value.

[Harrison]

Okay, great.

[Dylan]

This will kind of unlearn.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Okay. This is a training mechanism for other pods. You might do great.

[Barstool Host]

Not even really, because you're not going to pick up anything here that you'll be able to take to anywhere else. I think it's pretty individual experience.

[Barstool Co-Host]

It's pretty pretty.

[Harrison]

No, you guys are cool. I think we'll learn something. I feel like I'm learning now.

[Barstool Host]

I didn't know that you're a Philly guy.

[Harrison]

I'm a Philly guy.

[Barstool Host]

Where. Whereabouts are in. In the Philly area from?

[Harrison]

My dad has always lived in Center City, and then my mom lives in the suburbs.

[Barstool Host]

Oh, hell yeah.

[Dylan]

Marion.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah, I went to Waldron, which is in lower Marion. Walter Racing Academy.

[Harrison]

What the hell?

[Barstool Host]

Yeah. Isn't that fucking nuts?

[Harrison]

That's nuts.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

You like Philly?

[Barstool Host]

I love it. I think it's one of the better. Like one of the top six cities in the Union.

[Harrison]

Yes, dude.

[Dylan]

Totally. Don't you think?

[Barstool Host]

Where are you from?

[Dylan]

I'm from the Bay Area.

[Barstool Host]

So what do you think about I mean, I think. I think that San Fran is one of the top six cities. I would agree.

[Dylan]

I would agree.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yes.

[Dylan]

I think. I think it's dropped a tad over the years.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Really?

[Dylan]

I think it's on the. On the decline.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Really? Because I feel like that's what everyone says, but then people that are from there, like. No, it's actually the greatest.

[Dylan]

No, no. I think it just like I grew up there, right. Before all just tech took over San Francisco in the Bay Area.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

And it just has since just become this like kind of just. I don't know, like, just dudes who wear Patagonia vests and like, it's super sterile and just. I don't know, it lost the. Lost the ed edge that it had.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah. The artsy, sort of, you know, protesty type thing. I'll tell you.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

When you go to Chestnut street and the bars and stuff like that, I mean, the social life there is. Is a little insipid and really, really heavily male. It was my. Oh, it's a lot of dudes. Interesting.

[Dylan]

Yeah, interesting.

[Harrison]

Isn't that the gay.

[Barstool Host]

Is that the gay dish?

[Barstool Co-Host]

No, no, no, that's the tenderloin.

Right.

[Barstool Host]

Got it.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Or no. Is the tenderloin gay?

[Dylan]

No. Well, possibly.

[Barstool Co-Host]

It's more not nominally Telegraph Hill.

[Dylan]

Oh, God. Where is it? How am I forgetting the name?

[Barstool Host]

We did a walk around San Francisco and there were. There's three dudes that just. That were standing outside ass naked, sunny, sunning their dicks. And apparently they've been doing it the same three dudes for like 20 plus years.

[Dylan]

They're just.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Their dicks must be sun. Properly. Sun.

[Harrison]

It feels really good. Really? Yeah, it feels. It feels amazing. You guys have ever done that?

[Barstool Co-Host]

I don't think my. My dick has ever seen sunlight.

[Dylan]

Really?

[Barstool Co-Host]

I don't think my dick has ever seen electric lamp light.

[Harrison]

Dude, guys, sun them.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

Yeah. Feels great.

[Harrison]

I think it's really good for you.

[Barstool Co-Host]

It probably is.

[Barstool Host]

I've heard of sunning your asshole is the most efficient way to absorb vitamin C, I think.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I believe it would be.

[Barstool Host]

D. D, I'm sorry.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Are you sure it's not a beer? But it's a. Oh.

[Barstool Host]

Drinking orange juice through your asshole is the fastest way.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Right, right, right.

[Harrison]

That seems tough.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Right?

[Harrison]

You need a funnel.

[Barstool Co-Host]

You need a funnel and you need the ability to swallow.

[Harrison]

Right, right,

[Dylan]

right. I think. Right.

[Barstool Host]

And gulp. I think that is possible.

[Harrison]

It would be. It would make more sense to eat out of your ass than your mouth.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, totally.

[Harrison]

I wish. Yeah, right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

And then you Just shit it right out right after.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

You're saying the same hole.

[Dylan]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Suck it up.

[Barstool Co-Host]

And D. You guys picked this up quick. Didn't take long. Welcome to Son of a Boy Dad.

Yeah, no, I think that would be way more efficient.

[Harrison]

Well, there's something disgusting about eating it. There's something. If you think about it too hard,

[Barstool Host]

you know, eating out of the thing you kiss with everything you, like, kiss your babies with. Yeah, right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Also, then you could eat way healthier too, because you don't have any taste buds.

[Harrison]

Like.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah, no, there are taste buds on your.

[Barstool Co-Host]

No, Yeah, I think I did.

[Barstool Host]

I've said. I've said this before. Matt, can you. Can you just confirm that. That there are taste buds on your. Yeah, because I'm just about. Mac, Mac, Mac asking, but I'm positive that there are taste buds on your.

[Barstool Co-Host]

It also says on the balls.

[Harrison]

Really? What?

[Barstool Host]

Yes, at the second, so.

[Dylan]

Really?

[Barstool Co-Host]

Well, it's just. I mean, I might try this later.

[Harrison]

Good God. Good God.

[Barstool Co-Host]

So if I were to throw, like, some hot sauce on my balls when I get home after this, would I be able to be.

[Barstool Host]

I think you could do the Pepsi Ch Challenge with your. I think Cerning can taste the difference between Pepsi and. And the other brands.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, that's the Chick Fil.

[Barstool Host]

A Diet Coke a little bit watered down, but yeah. Dude, we're obsessed with. With the show, and it's four episodes out right now.

[Dylan]

That's right.

[Barstool Host]

And it's. It's for people that don't know. How would you guys best describe it? Because I don't want to assume that everybody who's listening to this has. Has watched it. So how would you guys term. Term your project that you.

[Harrison]

I mean, it's basically, simply put, a.

[Barstool Co-Host]

A.

[Harrison]

A docu series where we follow real people around the country dealing with neighbor disputes in real time. And I think we were. We really were obsessed with, like, having it happen just unfolding before you. You know what I mean? Like, in real time. I think there's a lot of documentaries and stuff that are really, like, in the past, and it's with archival. But I think we were just excited about really following people in the middle of one of these things. Hardcore.

[Barstool Co-Host]

If you can't say the answer to this. Excuse me, but are you gonna show resolutions to each episode? Are we coming back to some of these characters later? Don't answer it. I'm so curious. And through one episode, have fallen in love with some of these people.

[Harrison]

Do you mean like on another season or do you Mean in this. In the season currently, right here.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Sure. Whatever you feel you could answer.

[Harrison]

Interesting.

[Dylan]

That's interesting.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Well, I think that's interesting.

[Harrison]

What you see in the episode is really what we have right now. Oh, yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Have I just. Certainly. I haven't given you the idea for a new season. We could go back.

[Dylan]

Yeah, Harrison, we got to write that down.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah, exactly.

[Harrison]

We'll be right back.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

What's funny, a lot of people online are being like. Yeah, like, you know, they want to see more of these people. And I think, like, to us, we were like, you know. I mean. Yeah, I don't know. We would love to do it.

[Barstool Co-Host]

It felt as if you sort of cliffhang us a bit. Certainly on episode two, I think, where it's the farm guy in the residential neighborhood and he's like, I'm not going to pay attention to this town hall voting thing. I'm going to get more animals.

[Dylan]

He's just going to keep going. Right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

And like, you dangled that for me. And I was like, o. This is not resolved at all. Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

So I. Yeah, it's.

[Dylan]

It.

[Harrison]

You.

[Barstool Host]

You get like. You get obsessed with the characters really quickly. And I think it's. A lot of it is because it feels really real and I think a lot of it is like, there's at one point, I think in like episode three, it almost feels like, dangerous. Yeah. Like, you guys were almost like, like threatened. Who was it?

[Dylan]

The.

[Barstool Host]

The. The really sexy dude.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Ellen DeGeneres fan.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Harrison]

Johnny. Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

Like, and I don't want to keep on assuming that everybody has seen it, but so what his dispute was that he.

[Barstool Co-Host]

His Vietnam with that neighbor. They're both. They both think they're spying on each other.

[Barstool Host]

Right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

And the. One of the vet has set up like, legitimate fucking weird artistic cameras with cranes and stuff to look over his fence, I assume. And then Johnny is just constantly taking photographs. I mean, his whole life.

[Dylan]

He's ultimately an artist.

[Barstool Host]

He is.

[Harrison]

When he showed us photographer, his photography is like, unbelievable.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Come on.

[Harrison]

I'm not kidding.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Ones you selected to show us. There's a lizard mating. There's frogs mating.

[Dylan]

He has an eye.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I was like, that's not. He's not framing that. He's just capturing. Capturing to share with, you know?

[Harrison]

Right. The first time he had four yolks.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, exactly.

[Harrison]

That, like, was really, like, poignant, you know what I mean? Like, because, like, I feel like everybody cracks. Cracks of yolk and if there's two. Or an egg and has two yolks in it and you're like.

[Barstool Host]

Like right after that episode, my wife was.

[Barstool Co-Host]

She.

[Barstool Host]

She cracked a fresh 12 and every single egg was double.

[Harrison]

No.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, really?

[Barstool Host]

24. I swear to God.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Take like a video.

[Barstool Host]

Four yolks. No, I mean, but I think that that speaks to it. Like, that's the kind of thing you want to share, but it's like a little bit too small to share.

[Barstool Co-Host]

But I mean, if you get all 12 are doubled, that's like you got to call somebody.

[Dylan]

Yeah, that's.

[Harrison]

It makes me. Exactly. It makes me concerned about what.

[Barstool Host]

What's happening at the farm.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

What is going on at that farm

[Barstool Co-Host]

or what sort of magic is in her fingertips. She is the mother of twins.

[Barstool Host]

Exactly. And we have twins.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Holy.

[Barstool Host]

It's so deep.

[Barstool Co-Host]

But so midas of. You have twins multiply.

[Dylan]

No way.

[Harrison]

Yeah, maybe. I don't know. Weird on here.

[Barstool Host]

Midas of multiplying. That's nuts.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Telling you that that box was sold as 12 single Y

[Barstool Host]

and then suddenly there's two. But so Johnny is. There's a scene and you guys aren't featured in any of this, but then there's a scene where Johnny's basically paranoid thinking that you guys are setting him up or what was his thought, like. And you guys kind of had to talk him off the ledge. And then he was like, threaten. Basically threatening you.

[Harrison]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Barstool Host]

What was the threat?

[Barstool Co-Host]

He said. He said, I don't have children and you guys are going to go out and have children. And I. And then they were like, what do you mean by that? Which is good on you to dig for his. For clarity.

[Harrison]

Thank you. Yeah, well, it's. Yeah, keep going.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I love. I can't stop. I'm answering this for you guys.

[Barstool Host]

Keep going. I like it.

[Harrison]

Well, you really know the show.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I watched it last night.

[Harrison]

Okay, cool.

[Barstool Co-Host]

It's fresh. And then he goes, well, that I would threaten to kill your children. And he like verified himself.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

He couldn't have beauty did a veiled threat. And then he unveiled the threat.

[Barstool Co-Host]

He very quickly was like, that's what he's been doing to me. Which I didn't. Did you feel that that was just like a cop out or was he actually that quick to come up with an example, an illustration of what he's suffered for so long?

[Barstool Host]

He was.

[Dylan]

I mean, he's like, he's very quick. And I think he realized what had happened and wanted to immediately bring it back to his neighbor because he was like, oh, God, they're here for that. And that's why I want them here. So I got to bring it back to that as soon as possible. Like, it was with Johnny. There was like. It's really not the case with most of our subjects, but with Johnny, there was, like, a power play where he was like, you're here for me, and I want you to help bring attention to this. So that my neighbor can go to jail?

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

And so he really wanted something from us. And of course, we were there to document him. And there's, like. At one point, it's not in it, but he, like, took out his camera and started filming us. And he was like, I can film you guys, too, and just, like, filmed us and was like, what's your name? What's your name? What's your name? And it was like. It was really intense. Yeah.

[Harrison]

He was constantly filming us, too.

[Dylan]

It was like, we were like this. And I was like, this feels horrible. And I'm like, oh, right when we're doing that to you, Right?

[Harrison]

Yeah, Yeah.

[Dylan]

I hate this.

[Harrison]

Anytime a subject would start filming us, it was like, oh. We were like, right, right, right.

[Dylan]

This is what we do as a job. Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

It's like when, like, First Amendment auditors are, like, out in the world, and someone, like, rushes up to them with a camera. But also, he acquiesced to. He's like. He signed up for this?

[Harrison]

No, Johnny.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, he did.

[Harrison]

And he wanted help for his situation. So I think with that, like, threat thing, what's like. I think it's, like, the most extreme example of someone who is within one of these things and is just becoming so paranoid. Like, I think that, like, just his sort of worldview is becoming sort of more and more warped. And so I think. Yeah, I don't know. We were pushing him on it, too, because, like, I think, like, usually we cut that stuff out, too, when we were, like, kind of, like, trying to peel back the layers. But with that one, we were like, man, it was. It's so interesting.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, that was so. Sorry. Go ahead.

Oh, I was gonna. When you guys do this, is it. Is it just you two that go and film?

[Harrison]

So it's me and Dylan, and then it's my brother Sam. He runs the other camera. I run the other. Another camera. So we're two cameras. And then Dylan does sound. And then we have our producer. Field producer. His name is Andy. Andy Roos. And that's it on the ground.

[Barstool Co-Host]

So did you guys do this?

[Harrison]

Like.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Like, did you film this? And then it's a 24 that picked it up, right?

[Harrison]

That's right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

And then so did.

[Barstool Host]

That's right.

[Harrison]

Shout out to a 24best production company. They didn't tell us to say that.

[Barstool Co-Host]

So did you guys film this and then bring it to them, or did you go to them and be like, we have this idea? And they were like, we'll help you make it. Well, you don't have to give all the details.

[Dylan]

No, no, no.

[Harrison]

We could do the whole story. You want to start?

[Dylan]

Yeah, we. We got basically our friend Steve Smith, who's a. It was a filmmaker and designer. He reached out to us and basically was like, I'm working for this company, Brain Dead, that makes, like, merch and, like, clothing. Yeah. So Brain Dead at that time was giving money towards, like, proof of concept, like, things. And so he was like, do you have an idea for a show? And so we were like, yeah. I mean, me and Harrison had watched a lot of Harrison's brother Sam had made like, a comp. YouTube comp of, like, insane neighbor disputes. We're like, this is wild.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

And then we were trying to make our own, like, fake ones to make it seem like they were real and whatever. And then we were trying to.

[Harrison]

We upload. We made these videos and we uploaded onto, like, YouTube and live leak when Live Leak was still around.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

We were trying to convince people they were real, but no one.

[Dylan]

No one believed us. Yeah, we were like, ultimately, definitely real is better. Yeah, we should just actually document real ones. And so. And it was also, like, over Covid, this sort of started to come together, and we were just watching people fight online all the time. Just like Karen fights, like, people screaming each other in parking lots, masks stuff, you know, so it's just like something here is really interesting. And then. And then we. We got some money from Brain Dead and we made a pilot, which is the third episode. It's the Johnny episode.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, wow.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

So made that in 2021.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Really?

[Dylan]

Yeah. And we just did it on our own. Like, we had no idea how to make a show. Y never done anything like it before. And we just went down there and lived in with Harrison's grandparents, and we just went and made that episode just on our own. And then. Then we brought on Central, which is Josh Safdie's company with Eli bush and. And J.P. and so they saw our deck and saw that, and we're like, this is awesome. And then they brought it day 24. And then, you know, just sort of.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That's all.

You had that pilot in 2021. So you were shopping this and being Hollywoodized for.

[Harrison]

Well, it's hard because this kind of like, I think it's hard to sell a TV show. And it's like, I think the market right now is a little conservative of, like, it's just hard to get something off the ground. So I think we had this amazing pilot that we loved, and, you know, our sort of higher level producers loved it. And I think they were just waiting for the right time to, like, right moment.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That's what they always fucking tell you.

Yeah, that is true.

[Barstool Host]

Right? The fact that came true for you guys has to, like, it makes, like, you must believe in the world because of that, like, for everybody.

[Harrison]

You know what's crazy is when we made the. We made the pilot, when we were casting the pilot we on Craigslist wrote this is for an HBO show. Even though it was not HBO for the next, you know, three years.

[Barstool Host]

We just made that up because no

[Dylan]

one was gonna take it seriously. Yeah, they're like, these guys are creeps. Why are they wanting people to film? You know, it's like on Craigslist. Like, what is this? We were like, oh, it's an HBO show. Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That's unreal. So you guys put Craigslist ads for. That's unreal.

[Dylan]

Yeah, that's how we found the two. I mean, both of those stories kind of. Yeah, yeah, we're both on from Craig.

[Barstool Co-Host]

How many. How many submissions did you get?

[Harrison]

Thousands, bro.

[Barstool Co-Host]

The ones you found are. I mean, the level of delusion and eccentricity on both sides. That's what I love about the show.

[Barstool Host]

It's balanced.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

You.

[Barstool Co-Host]

You present as if, well, clearly these people are in the wrong and these people are in the right. And then halfway through the episode, you're like, but hold on a second. The guy we thought was in the right has been watching Ellen DeGeneres live for every day for 10 years. Or like, you start presenting these little things.

[Barstool Host]

I think that's the genius of it, too. Like, the way that you guys. The speed at which the edit happens and then the way that you guys reveal details is so funny because out of nowhere, someone you thought was, like, pretty rational is, like going to, like, a crystal facility or something like that,

[Barstool Co-Host]

or has the sound the. Like the woman's manager in the episode. She's got the cats.

[Harrison]

Yes.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Philly cat woman. And. And I was pro.

I was pro. The cat lady. Just, Just.

[Barstool Host]

You were.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, yeah, I was on the cat lady.

Why?

[Harrison]

Oh, good.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I love cats.

[Dylan]

Cool.

[Harrison]

Okay.

[Barstool Host]

For sure. But they were running roughshod around the neighborhood.

[Barstool Co-Host]

They weren't doing.

I thought That

[Dylan]

I thought that that

[Barstool Host]

was the one where. Where the. The victims of that, the. The family who was being terrorized by the cats seemed the most rational.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I understood why they were mad, but it's just so funny to me to like, walk outside and see a bunch of cats and just be furious. Like, these goddamn cats.

[Harrison]

Yeah. If you're a cat person, it's like cat. You know, he's right.

[Dylan]

Yeah, right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

The more merrier.

[Barstool Host]

It was his first house. He's probably excited to have a house.

[Harrison]

And then he's living in.

[Barstool Co-Host]

He's been in prison.

[Harrison]

Yeah, right.

[Barstool Host]

He was in prison, folks.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Son of a boy, dad is brought to you by Stella Blue Coffee. You guys all know that I am on a coffee journey to fill the hole in my heart. And Stella Blue is my bean of choice. I love Stella Blue Coffee.

You mind if I just jump in here real quick? I'm a personal fan of the Big Cat medium roast. Genuinely one of the best coffees I've ever had.

I just.

That's what I was just drinking during the episode.

Okay.

Just feel. I felt like I would give my personal endorsement.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

I thought Francis was doing fine.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I was on a roll.

Well, when I've got a personal endorsement, I like to get it out there.

Where was I? Still blue. Okay. Right now, Stella Blue Coffee is doing their golden mug. One winner will get two tickets to the men's college basketball national championship. But that's not all. Nine other winners will receive a Barstool Chicago HQ experience with one friend. Buy anything on Stella Blue coffee.com from Wednesday, March 11 to Friday, March 13 to get entered. Buying cans will count as 10x entries. These lattes are made with 100% Colombian coffee. Each can is a good source of protein and comes in two smooth flavors. Espresso Cafe Mocha and Nespresso Sweet Cream. I had a long conversation with. With Big Cat when he was launching Stella Blue about where he sourced the beans. And I'll tell you what, these are good, good beans. These are big time beans. They did the work. And there's a reason that this is one of the best sort of in house brands we have at Barstool. Don't forget, buy anything on Stella Blue Coffee.com from Wednesday, March 11 to Friday, March 13 to get entered to win two tickets to the men's college basketball national championship. Did you guys have anything to do with them getting cast on Judge Judy?

[Dylan]

No, because that.

[Harrison]

Yeah, that was.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That was just development. That happened naturally in the course. You'd already selected them and then that Happened.

[Harrison]

Yes.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That's amazing.

[Harrison]

Well, it's funny because, like, people, it feels like, you know, there's like, a few different routes that you can take. If you have a neighbor dispute, you know, like, you obviously call the police and they tell you that, you know, the police just can't do anything. They're like, this is a civil matter. I'm sorry. Like. Like, deal with your neighbor. You know, you can sue them and go to court. And then you can also just go on Judge Judy, which is like, truly. People do that, you know, I mean, which is why we thought it was so interesting. Like, this is that it just makes that show also just feel more real.

[Dylan]

Yeah, totally. Well. Cause it's also like, we wanted the show to have all these different ways in which people try to resolve the neighbor dispute and ultimately fail.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

But to have one of those be going on a. A on a judge show felt apt because it's like we. We. We were constantly, like, on Judge Judy, there are tons of neighbor disputes. Like.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

It's like a quarter of what goes on Judge Judy are like neighbor disputes. Because it all isn't. You know, it all goes into small claims or whatever. It's really, like, that feels like an important texture to add into the.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

Into this sort of world of neighbor disputes.

[Barstool Co-Host]

So did you guys get to go to the judge? You guys got to see Judy?

No, they tried. They turned away glasses on or whatever.

[Harrison]

Yeah. And then we were like, damn, like, this was a bad idea to do this story. We were like. The whole time, we were like, we're gonna film Judge Judy. And then it, like, got to that point. It's like, well, how the are we gonna film?

[Dylan]

We just. We were like, how do you even get in?

[Barstool Host]

You can't just go to Judge Judy.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Especially it's like a show that's already being produced.

I didn't think it. It lost anything by not showing up.

[Barstool Host]

Just like, filming your shadow in the parking lot walking away.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I thought them leaving and like. Like, interview of like, what is it her sister or something where she's like, that went bad.

[Harrison]

Oh, it's her friend.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

Yeah.

And she was like, I knew that

[Harrison]

wasn't gonna go well.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That was like, the funniest shit I've ever seen.

But it was all. You ended it so nicely for her by, like, having her meet with this producer that she's been keen to meet with forever. And that was hysterical, where he was like, my brain can't take any more information.

[Harrison]

Yeah. I think we get excited. I think like, the more that we were making the show, the more we were excited to like, like, like as much as we can make it. Like, not actually about the neighbor dispute, sort of the funnier and cooler it became to us, you know, like, those diversions were like, just so exciting, you know?

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, man.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah, it's so great. Well, how many. How much footage? Because it's like you're doing. It's like 25 minute episodes. 30 minute episodes.

[Harrison]

Yeah, 30 minute episodes.

[Barstool Host]

And so. But it's two storylines, so like 15 minutes per storyline.

[Dylan]

Yep.

[Barstool Host]

And so how much footage are you taking? Down to 15 minutes because it goes fast, which makes it very digestible people, especially for my dumbass TikTok brain. But I think that we did that on purpose.

[Dylan]

Yeah, our brains are totally fried. Yeah, we're like, we're bored. We're bored. We're bored. Cut it. Cut it. Yeah, we're equally as fried. And that's why the show looks like.

[Barstool Host]

So is it like. I mean, it's got to be like days of footage.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

Oh, yeah.

[Dylan]

I mean, we spent. We shot pretty much every day around six hours to eight hours a day for two to three weeks per story.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

So it's a lot of. It's a lot of footage.

[Harrison]

We live with them like the whole time and we don't shoot. Which honestly we.

[Dylan]

If.

[Harrison]

If we get a season two, we might have to change. But, like, we don't really. Like, we really embed ourselves in their lives and we don't do, like, really days off with them either. We're just like, with them for like.

[Dylan]

Yeah, like everything.

[Harrison]

Everything. Yeah, like two or three weeks.

[Dylan]

Really?

[Harrison]

They're like, I gotta go to the pharmacy. It's like, oh, can we come?

[Dylan]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Is there, like, moments when you're with them for the two to three weeks where you're like. Like, this is it. This is what we've been waiting for. And they like, all finally just like

[Barstool Host]

when the woman's like, throwing the fucking.

[Dylan]

Yeah, yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Like, are you guys going nuts? That you're like, we got. This is gold.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

That moment in particular when she's throwing the bushes, we were like. Because we also, you know, the first one we were making, so we were like. We were like, thank God. This is. I mean, it was insane.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Does anyone, like, ham it up for the camera?

That's what I was going.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

Or do you.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Or are they. That's just their. That's just their natural state.

Are they being performative at all?

[Dylan]

You know, it. That's like something we're constantly trying to figure out while we're making it is like. And then at a certain point, we stop caring because we're just like, you know, it. It is hard to know if. How the, like, if the camera's changing them somehow. Like, there's no doubt there's some impact.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

But it's just. It's just hard to know how much. And so we kind of just go in there and just be like, whatever happens is real.

[Harrison]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Dylan]

And whether you want to. Whether they're hamming it up or not.

[Harrison]

Not.

[Dylan]

It's, you know, it's on them.

[Barstool Co-Host]

But yeah, when you get her to admit that she sold her kids piss to help her friends get out of, like, parole violations. Michael, you had a moment where. You had a moment where she was like, can I tell them that you used my son's piss? And he's like, oh, no, absolutely not. How do you. How do you get to use that? Have they all signed releases?

[Harrison]

Everyone signs.

[Dylan]

Yeah, everyone signs.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Unbelievable. So you just hot mic'd that guy? Guy.

[Harrison]

He just had his. Right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Barstool Host]

It was a.

[Harrison]

It was our jinx. You ever watched the. Jinxed them all.

[Barstool Host]

I pissed on them all.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Of course I did.

[Harrison]

Yeah. I think, you know, Dylan. We co direct the show, but Dylan does sound. I do camera. So Dylan has like. Like, it's like a whole other.

[Dylan]

It's a world.

[Harrison]

Yeah, it's just audio. Just hearing what people in the bathroom like anything or like Dylan's like a mile ahead of us. Being like, guys, like. Yeah, they're like. They're actually freaking out right now. Like, I don't. I think we're gonna have to end the day early. And we're like, what?

[Dylan]

We've just been.

[Harrison]

They were so down. Like, you know.

[Dylan]

Yeah, they'll, you know, we'll like be like, you know, we'll. We'll show up and start filming like, oh, so good to see you guys. And then they'll be miked and they'll go away and be like, these. Oh, I'm so tired of this. I think we're going to have a limited day, week five.

[Barstool Host]

And you're just there still.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That's so funny.

[Barstool Host]

And I know. I've heard in interviews, you guys are like, we don't want to punch down, but you do sometimes cook them in the edit. Like, there was the guy in episode four.

[Dylan]

I don't know.

[Harrison]

I don't know what.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I haven't seen episode four yet.

[Barstool Host]

In episode four, it's not going to give it away. But there's a guy who's like, I've strayed from my party a little bit, so they call me a Republican in name only. So I bought this here picture, and, like, they call me a rhino. So I got this picture, and it's just like a picture of an elephant, and they just. You just leave it on it. Like, the edit just, like, lingers on it for just a second so everybody can get

[Barstool Co-Host]

pause. You held on the guy, the farmer guy, who was like, well, I don't know if I should say this. She did Onlyfans and it was awesome. Parties with fucking Jamie Foxx and, like, all these hot chicks and, like, just. Yeah, he's just hanging himself while his pregnant wife's down the hall being like.

[Dylan]

Right.

[Harrison]

Yeah. You know, and. And I think, like. I mean, we. I think we're pretty, like, militant in the edit about keeping things in. They really have to, like, function or, like, reveal something about the. The person that, like, complicates it, you know? And I think, like, that OnlyFans stuff was important to us also. I mean, it's a really funny moment. That pause is, like, amazing. And we love the. I mean, it's. It's really rare to actually get those kind of pauses because usually they start talking immediately after, so we always keep it in. But I think, like, you know, I think that Onlyfans stuff is funny, but it's also, like, it deepens why he's, you know, doing this farm and stuff, which was so exciting, you know, and something that you wouldn't know if you just, like, saw it in the news how we saw it initially, you know.

[Dylan]

Yeah. Like, when we found the story, we had no idea that he had done Onlyfans. Like, it was in the local newspaper that there was, like, a dispute over a farm in front of some person's front lawn. We're like, this is interesting. And then as we got to know him, he basically was like, you know, I wanted to start a new chapter in my life. You know, I did some stuff in the past and that I want to move on from, and we're like, what? What? Stop.

[Harrison]

Yeah. So awesome to be like, you know, it's funny. You film with these people, and then we go back to our Airbnb or wherever we're staying, and we're just like, what was that?

[Barstool Host]

Yeah, what?

[Barstool Co-Host]

This the hardest I've laughed in the whole show by far. I had to pause it to, like, catch my breath and then go back and watch it again is when it's that storyline and the. I'm assuming the gay neighbor who is fed up with him, notices the rack for the 50 pheasants. And the way you put that at it in. As it's dawning on him, he's like, what do you think that rack's for? Like, collecting eggs? 50 peasants. I was in fucking tears. I was gasping at that. And that was the moment where I was like, oh, they're definitely going to follow up on this story, because this guy is not abiding whatsoever. He's brought.

[Dylan]

Yeah, he's building.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, he's building.

[Harrison]

Yeah, that. I mean, that killed us, too. I mean, it also is just funny that he says, what the frick? Just for some reason. It's just so funny. We film so much and very rarely are we filming. And we look at each other like, aha, this is really funny. It's like in the edit room that we're watching, and we're like, what? Like, we forgot. We're basically falling asleep sometimes when we're filming. You know what I mean? Because it's, like, so long.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

Because this is their lives. It's just like, this is how they're living. So it's not even absurd to them. Like, it's just like this is their constant state that they're in. And then once you, like, can, like, get every little moment lined up like that, it's what makes it amazing. What were you guys doing before you. You got successful at this? Before you started killing this? Like, just making. Making movies. Making.

[Dylan]

We were making, like. Like. Like Internet videos, basically.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

Yeah, just like. Like, I mean, you know, making stuff. We were. Me and Harrison, we're living in Florida, Miami, and we were working with this, like, sort of film collective down there. And we were just basically making stuff and, like, you know, I don't know, like, comedy Internet videos that no one watched. And basically cut our teeth doing that. And then. Yeah, and then sort of COVID happened. We had an opportunity to go make a pilot. I had done, like. Like, you know, my. My dad was a documentary filmmaker, so I kind of like. And I, you know, helped on his stuff. And I'd done some doc stuff in the past, but, like, nothing that was at all substantial, you know, it was just like, I don't know, just making Internet videos, basically.

[Harrison]

Yeah. To put on Instagram, honestly, like, just funny videos and, you know, stuff like that. Try to get them into film festivals.

[Dylan]

And no one. No one wanted that.

[Harrison]

No one wanted that.

[Barstool Co-Host]

No one wanted that.

[Harrison]

But then we also. I did music videos and, like, commercial Stuff.

[Barstool Host]

Is there money in music videos?

[Dylan]

No know. Right.

[Harrison]

Oh, and it's a lot.

[Barstool Host]

Everybody wants them for free. Like every artist wants it for free.

[Harrison]

I know, I know. It's really like a bad game to get into, I think.

[Barstool Host]

Bad.

[Harrison]

And it's not.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

And it's, you know, with music videos too, is like if you're a director, it's like you. I feel like it gets to the point where like you're just, you know, it's really in service of the artist. And so if you really don't like the artist but you're making the video, it's just like, I don't know.

[Dylan]

Yeah, yeah.

[Barstool Host]

That's like rap videos or.

[Harrison]

I mean, I would do. I would do a rap video. I mean, you know, if it was someone.

[Barstool Host]

Absolutely.

[Harrison]

No, but yeah, music videos, you know, I don't know.

[Dylan]

I mean, I can't think. The last time I sat down, the computer is like, I want to watch a music video. Like, they're dead.

[Harrison]

Yeah, yeah, they're dead.

[Barstool Host]

Sad to say. They used to rule it used to be awesome.

[Dylan]

Dude.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Has there been any good ones recently?

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

You know what's an amazing one? There's an ASAP rock music video.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah. Lsd.

[Harrison]

Well, LSD is cool, but it's not that one.

[Dylan]

I know.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I think I know the one you're talking about.

[Harrison]

The one in like Russia.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, I was thinking Taylor Swift.

[Dylan]

Paris.

[Harrison]

Huh.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I was thinking of another one, I guess. ASAP Rocky's done.

[Barstool Host]

He's got some bags.

[Harrison]

Yes.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

Anyways. Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

Oh, I thought the lsd. I thought the LSD one was sick. Britney Spears had some bangers too. We did a music video draft one time and Britney Spears had all heat. Maybe it's just because of my age and how horny it made me at the time.

[Dylan]

Right?

[Barstool Host]

But it was fantastic.

[Harrison]

Britney Spears music video.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

She had some bangers. Toxic. That was.

[Dylan]

Oh my God.

[Harrison]

Toxic was an old time.

[Barstool Host]

See this him over there? Cuz she had the diamond. She had like a diamond bodysuit on.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Never knew I had an erotic fixation on flight attendants until that.

[Dylan]

Right?

[Barstool Host]

Really?

[Dylan]

Oh my.

[Barstool Co-Host]

The only Britney Spears one I've ever seen is the baby. Right?

[Barstool Host]

Baby One more time.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Give me baby one more time. Only because it was on sing Star 2 on the PlayStation 2. It's like one of like 10 songs.

That one didn't do it for me. She was too young. Young.

Well, I was probably like 8.

Definitely one more or. Oops, I did it again when the. The red latex suit. For sure.

I Was a same age in that one.

No, no, no, that's a different album.

You might want to get your facts straight.

Lucky I got See if Oops. If hip. If Oops I Did It Again is on the same album as her, it

[Barstool Host]

would imply that it's not if she's done it again.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Correct.

[Barstool Host]

You know what I mean? Baby One More Time was Oops I Did did it.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

And then Oops, I Did it again.

[Dylan]

Oh, interesting.

[Barstool Host]

It's like another foray into doing it. See, that's 2,000 oops I did it again came out in 96. Or baby, one more time came out in 96.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, I mean, it's four years.

Oh, interesting how those are a crucial four years.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

She went from, you know, entered her dark phase.

[Barstool Host]

Well, yeah, she became of age. She became a legal woman.

[Barstool Co-Host]

This was her. Sergeant Peppers.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

Have you guys ever in your lives been bad nails neighbor? Was there ever a time were you guys pretty model citizens? Were any neighbor disputes even or like bad neighbors that you had? Well, we had when.

[Dylan]

When we were making. When we're editing the show, we actually got into kind of a neighbor dispute because the. We edited the show in New York at this. The production company, Gummy Films, which like, helped produce the show. And while we were editing, like, come like maybe 4pm the next door neighbor would start practicing his DJ sets. And there were actually three different DJs in different rooms all practicing at the same time.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Damn.

[Dylan]

Completely different types of music, like reggaeton and then like deep house and then rap music. And it would just all start at like 4 and go until like midnight. And we were just like, this is insane. Like, how can we possibly concentrate? But we're ultimately kind of wimps and we're just like. We're just not going to say anything because we're ultimately sort of pussies about it. And we're just going to sit and keep editing. And then over time, we got kind of used to it. Yeah. And then. And then it actually was sort of nice.

[Barstool Host]

You couldn't edit without it. Yeah, it was like Pavlovian, like our

[Dylan]

DJs, like, what happened?

[Harrison]

And he's a really nice guy.

[Dylan]

And then we met him and he's

[Harrison]

a really nice guy.

[Dylan]

And we were like, okay, I guess

[Barstool Host]

it's not his fault.

[Dylan]

Don't you think?

[Barstool Co-Host]

Like, why wouldn't they just throw some headphones in, though?

[Dylan]

It's a great question, right?

[Harrison]

It's. You know what? Yeah, yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I guess you got to practice how you play.

[Dylan]

It's actually something we could have practiced how you play.

[Barstool Host]

Exactly. Or you guys. Maybe he'd be like, why don't you throw headphones in?

[Harrison]

Yeah, right, right. Well, we had.

[Dylan]

We had headphones in. Oh.

[Barstool Host]

And it was permeated the can.

[Barstool Co-Host]

And then.

[Harrison]

Yeah. It's funny, there was like this. This French news outlet that wrote something about neighbors and. And they said something about. I translated it and it was talking about how, like, the edit felt like gabber music.

[Dylan]

Music.

[Harrison]

And then I was just like. Well, that's probably because we were just listening to that.

[Barstool Host]

Like, you. You use some of the. Is it like a. What is that lens? It's like a fisheye. Or is it like a 360? Yeah, 360. And it's just like. It just makes it feel very, like, unique and proprietary.

[Harrison]

Cool. Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

What's the thought? Like, what. Why, why that it really pops in the first episode when you're, like, on the beach and you're just, like, seeing, like, the entire world.

[Harrison]

Yeah, totally. I had been using those cameras for Dylan and I were talking about, you know, before doing Neighbors. And I'm just obsessed with that camera. And we just get so excited about it because you can just manipulate wherever the camera go. You can animate the camera basically after you shoot it. It's really. I don't know.

[Barstool Co-Host]

What kind of camera is it? It's called.

[Harrison]

It's just a360 camera.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Is it like the GoPro one?

[Harrison]

Well, we use the Insta360 and then we use the GoPro Max.

[Dylan]

Nice.

[Barstool Host]

Like, I've watched YouTube videos of DJ sets where they have that, and you can just like, while you're in the video, like, see it, just capturing everything simultaneously.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, it's pretty cool.

[Harrison]

It's sick. I think also, like, we were always wanting to actually film a real confrontation with one of them because we had done videos where

[Barstool Host]

both sides of the confrontation.

[Harrison]

Exactly. And. And so, yeah, that. That confrontation in the. With the auditor was really exciting.

[Barstool Co-Host]

It's very Coen Brothers of you.

[Harrison]

Oh, yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Well, you know, he. He doesn't do the over the shoulder shot for dialogue. He puts the camera right in the middle of the table. Table.

[Harrison]

Oh, really? I didn't know that.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

Interesting.

[Harrison]

How do you know them? Which one?

[Barstool Co-Host]

I'm sorry?

[Barstool Host]

Answer all the questions.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Which one does that?

[Dylan]

Excuse me?

[Harrison]

Well, you said the Cohen brothers. I'm just asking which one. Yeah, I can't. Dude, I love the Coen brothers. Yeah, they're the. They're the best.

[Dylan]

Yeah, they.

[Harrison]

They.

[Barstool Co-Host]

They said about it that they always wondered why anyone would think that's not how, like, that puts you in the conversation.

[Harrison]

Right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

When you're having the conversation, you're only seeing the other person.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

So in those dialogue choices, shots. But everyone else in film always does it over the shoulder, right?

[Harrison]

Yeah, totally over the shoulder. Kind of feels. Film school years. Yeah, right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

Set it down.

[Barstool Host]

Did they do no country for Old Men?

[Harrison]

Yes.

[Barstool Host]

I just rewatched that this week, dude. So I love that.

[Harrison]

That movie too. Like, there's just like, so much of it is, like, there's no dialogue. You're just like tracking a guy, like the whole beginning with him trying to get the money and the dog is chasing him.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

It's just like, kind of quiet.

[Dylan]

Yeah. And just like doom the whole time. Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That's Cormac McCarthy. Did you guys read the book?

[Harrison]

No.

[Dylan]

Of course.

[Harrison]

Is the book really good?

[Barstool Co-Host]

It's unbelievable, dude.

[Harrison]

I've never read anything by him, but I heard he's kind of start with

[Barstool Co-Host]

all the pretty Horses.

I had to read the book in high school. I'd read the book in high school and I didn't. I watched the movie. Apparently there are some major differences.

[Barstool Host]

They caught your ass. I know your teacher was. She left some dangling questions on that test.

[Harrison]

You had a. You had a reading. Read the book for school.

[Barstool Co-Host]

For school.

[Barstool Host]

Right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

And I was like, well, I'll just watch the movies.

Yeah.

And then I was just writing directly based on the movie. And like, obviously the movie is probably more famous than the book at this point. So, like, the teacher was like, this is clearly from the movie and not the book.

Yeah.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Trying to think. I can't. I can't remember what the differences were, but stuff with sugar. I. I think boy, haunting, haunting, haunting villain there.

[Barstool Host]

I think I did that with Julius Caesar. I think I Like, we were like. It was like a Latin class. We're supposed to, like, learn about the history of Julius Caesar. And I was just basing it all off the. The play. The Shakespeare play. I don't think a 2 brute is like, in. That's not history. That's Shakespeare.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I know. Sure.

[Dylan]

You're kidding.

[Barstool Co-Host]

But like, to opt for a play.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

It's.

[Barstool Host]

Honestly, I'm going to read the entire Shakespeare works in iambic pent, committed to memory.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I don't have the time to read this thing. I'm gonna read the play instead.

All righty, folks, let's talk about factor. Somewhere between the first warm weekend and realizing short season is getting close, eating well stops feeling optional factor is how I Stopped letting a busy schedule be my excuse. Fully prepared meals designed by dietitians and crafted by chefs. Ready in two.

[Barstool Host]

Let me just jump in here. I've been loving factor. A little personal endorsement. I love the chicken. I feel like it really knock one. I can't pick if you're trying. If you're. If you want to make me pick between my favorite factor chicken entrees.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I'm a fan of the shredded chicken taco bowl, but I like the chicken breast. The chicken.

If I can just leapfrog on top of Roan's, jump in for one second. The thing that I like the most about Factor is it allows me to know that my ingredients are portioned correctly without needing to do all the difficult cleanup and annoying.

[Barstool Host]

I have one time in my life that I think I'm sure I was a bad neighbor and I was 8 years old and I just, it was when I was first left home alone by my, by my family. Like that's around the age when you're like left home alone alone. It was like during the day.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Eight's pretty young.

[Dylan]

Yeah, it's pretty young but I think

[Harrison]

you were left alone. Eight years old.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah. At home.

[Harrison]

Let's dissect that first.

[Barstool Host]

A lot of fighting going on in my house and I think it was like the first time that like intrusive thoughts come into your head because you're like when the freedom of your like 8 year old mind and body and stuff like that and the newspaper got delivered in the morning and it was like a weekend day and I was, I don't know why the intrusive thought came in but I was like what if I go get the newspaper ass naked and I fucking sprinted down the driveway ass naked and grabbed my own newspaper as like an eight year old boy. And ever since then I just have always just been like why did I ever do that? And then I'll put myself in the position of like my Asian neighbors of like if they're just like cracking the.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

The blinds to just see an eight year old.

[Dylan]

A little.

[Barstool Host]

A little naked eight year old boy, like sprinting as fast as he can to get the paper and like dodging back through the door, like breathlessly.

[Barstool Co-Host]

What did your dad do that? Was he like a big go out, get the paper.

[Harrison]

That's beautiful though. That's beautiful. I think I. I think that's just, you know, it's a beautiful child's mind. Right?

[Barstool Host]

It's just a nasty, wild child's child's mind. Just like running around. Running around ass naked. That. That young. But I like. Yeah, I think I'm a little bit unburdened, I think by getting it off my chest, but just absolutely vile behavior.

[Dylan]

Appreciate you sharing that with us.

[Barstool Host]

Subjecting the neighborhood to like a naked child to child pornography, basically just so I could satisfy my. My little impulse.

[Harrison]

The last episode of Neighbors, the finale. I'd spoil it too much, but a lot of it takes place in a nudist community, so there's a lot of nudity. And that the reason, you know, we know that it feels good to sun your genitals is because we did it.

[Dylan]

We did.

[Barstool Host]

No, you didn't. No, you didn't.

[Harrison]

We filmed nude a lot of the time. Yeah.

[Dylan]

Whoa.

[Harrison]

That's crazy.

[Dylan]

I was like, totally new to the boom pole. Just. That's the most vulnerable with my.

[Barstool Host]

What job could you have that's more vulnerable than. Oh, my God.

[Harrison]

I was. Well, I was lucky because I had. I hold a camera and we have like a rag, you know? Yeah. Like a cine saddle. So I like, sort of can cover my balls.

[Dylan]

I was just like spread eagle for like hours, like staring at our subject just with my dick out and recording them.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That's crazy.

[Harrison]

They're naked too. So it's all, you know, it's better, you know, it's all good.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Are you guys allowed to say how many episodes the first season is? Six.

[Dylan]

Six?

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

Hell yeah.

[Dylan]

Two more colonies.

[Barstool Host]

Are there like wayward boners that like just like, you know, pop up, you know? Or is that. Is that something that you guys clocked at all, or do you just avert your eyes and just keep it on the subject? For the most part.

[Harrison]

Mostly try to do that.

[Dylan]

You. It's like the eye. I've never experienced such incredible eye contact.

[Harrison]

You're so locked in.

[Dylan]

You're like, go down for just a second. You can't just. You're so locked.

[Harrison]

So truly just a fit. You're really looking at people's faces.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

Totally, totally. And you know, sometimes that happens and there's protocol in the communities where you basically you're supposed to carry around a towel with you everywhere you go because you can't sit on the surface.

[Harrison]

Yeah, exactly.

[Dylan]

Yeah. It's called a butt rug. And so you carry around your butt rug. And so if in fact you get a erection, cover the erection with the butt rug.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Is the same thing apply to women with say, like engorged labia?

[Harrison]

They show signs of a rat.

[Dylan]

Absolutely.

[Harrison]

Even Steven.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Why are we punishing men?

[Dylan]

Right?

[Harrison]

Is it A lot of guys didn't. I feel like they're really like. A lot of these nudist communities are like, you know, unless it's a community of swingers, which there are. A lot of these communities we were filming in are like very. Nudism is so unsexual to them. So, like.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

I mean, I don't even know if we saw one boner. Honestly. I wanted to. Of course, you know, boners. You know, I was on a safari

[Barstool Host]

and not seeing the lion.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

It is definitely a little bit more interesting if it's just a bunch of non aroused nudists.

[Dylan]

Oh, yeah. Yeah. And that's what it is. I mean, they're like. There's basically two schools. It's like the lifestyle, which are the people that are nude to. For like polyamory and they just want to have sex all the time, that kind of thing. And then there's like the naturists or the naturalists who are like almost religious about it, and they do not want anything sexual to be happening. Happening within like their nudist world. You can go home or whatever and have sex if you want, but being nude is not sexual. That's like a really important thing.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

The nudist that we filmed with, I

[Barstool Host]

always used to want to do some kind of like small documentary on people who have gymnophobia, which is never nudes. People who are like, wow. Yeah. You honestly probably do have like a little bit of gym phobia.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, no, I'm just like, yeah. I mean.

[Harrison]

Yeah,

[Barstool Host]

he showers your pants on.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, No, I don't.

[Harrison]

I don't do that. No. You said you're. Yeah, you're.

[Dylan]

Your.

[Harrison]

Your penis hasn't seen sunlight.

[Barstool Co-Host]

No, never. Never.

[Harrison]

Really?

[Barstool Co-Host]

Probably never will.

[Dylan]

It's okay.

[Harrison]

No, it's okay. That is interesting though, like, how much people don't like to be naked. I mean, a lot of these people we met, like, they just hate also the feeling of clothes on their skin. It's as simple as that. But I guess for the other people it's just like, you know, is it intense shame?

[Barstool Host]

I wonder if there's like a religious thing to it or what could be the. The. The impetus for. For severe gymnophobia?

[Harrison]

Well, it's maybe a religious thing.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

I don't know.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I mean, I feel like I get never nude more than I get nudist. Cuz like never nude. Like most of us are pretty much never nude. Unless from when like you're. It's not like.

[Harrison]

Are you.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Do you guys go home and just immediately just naked?

[Harrison]

Sometimes. Sometimes I do. Sometimes I do.

[Dylan]

I think, look, I think Harris, it's a spec. You would consider yourself a nudist.

[Harrison]

I'm a nudist. I'm actually could become a nudist.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Really?

[Dylan]

You're at like 2 degrees from really full time nudist.

[Barstool Co-Host]

So you actually. You get home and you're like, I gotta get naked now?

[Harrison]

Yeah, sort of.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

Dylan, not a nudist.

[Dylan]

Not a nudist. No, no, not a nudist.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I'll go shirtless in my home if I'm hot.

[Harrison]

Right?

[Dylan]

Right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I find it's much cooler for me not to wear.

See, I'm like, the shirt's the last thing that leaves the body for me.

[Harrison]

Really. Pants off.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I would go. I'd 7th Ave. With my out before I walk down with my shirt off.

[Dylan]

Interesting.

[Harrison]

It's so interesting you do that.

[Barstool Co-Host]

No, I don't. I don't do that.

[Dylan]

Right.

[Harrison]

You might do it.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I. Yeah, yeah.

[Barstool Host]

The time is the towel. Is it for. Is it for like skid marks or for butt sweat or catch all.

[Dylan]

And. And if you can't, do not use a white towel. Because whether you like, you can clean yourself down there as much as possible possible. But throughout the day it will become a skid mark. Just like it looks like a car crash happened.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That's unfortunate.

[Barstool Host]

Did that happen to that? Is that a personal experience type of thing or.

[Dylan]

We've seen it.

[Harrison]

We have seen it.

[Dylan]

We've seen it on the. On the butt rugs. Yeah, for sure.

[Harrison]

But it never happened to us. You know, we clean ourselves properly.

[Dylan]

Of course. Of course.

[Barstool Host]

Of course.

[Barstool Co-Host]

So what do you got to go with like a black. A black.

[Dylan]

Black. Gray. Black or gray?

[Harrison]

Well, it's funny, you're. You know, when you're younger.

[Dylan]

Yeah, I never thought about that. That's interesting.

[Harrison]

Seems like a sort of poop brown

[Barstool Co-Host]

color towel would do dark, sickly green.

[Dylan]

Brown. Oh, okay. Dude, I don't know.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Okay. I don't know. Depends on what day it is. Depends on if I'm coming from Jiu Jitsu.

[Barstool Host]

What you ate. Yeah, that's. Well, they must have learned it, and there must have been a nasty learning curve for that. Or maybe it's quick. Maybe it's just like one skid mark.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, it could have been first day, Right? This is unacceptable.

[Harrison]

Yeah, sort of vibe kill immediately. That's a skid mark.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Should we stretch the legs, go for a walk? Oh, we all ourselves.

You guys were in the community for two weeks filming?

[Dylan]

More than that.

[Harrison]

Yeah, we did. Like, my girlfriend, who is the. She's the casting director on the show. Her name is Harley Shaw. She and I went down there. We did a scouting trip for probably two weeks or so, and we were trying to film another story. So I think collectively in the nudist communities, we probably spent, like, probably a month and a half. Yeah, two months maybe, like, collectively, like. And that means, like, going and not filming. Cause we didn't film. We had to do these trips where we just, like, obviously, like, met people and hung out and were naked with them and gained their trust for like, a while. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Barstool Host]

You just have to be naked among them to show that you were harmless.

[Harrison]

You have to. I mean, it's sort of like to

[Barstool Host]

show you're not preying on their community.

[Harrison]

Right? To show that. Yeah, we're harmless.

[Barstool Host]

You're not horny.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, you don't have your butt rose. Here, borrow mine.

[Harrison]

Yeah, I mean, it's probably okay.

[Barstool Co-Host]

No, seriously, use it. I got extras.

Yeah, you probably can't roll in just cameras. Film in day one.

[Barstool Host]

Pants on.

[Harrison]

Yeah, pants on. Pants on. But you know what you're describing, the shirt. No pants. We call it pooh bearing.

[Dylan]

We call it.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, yeah, Pooh bear.

[Dylan]

That shit.

[Barstool Host]

Is that okay? Is that okay to do?

[Harrison]

That's actually super okay.

[Dylan]

Yeah, we kind of worked our way up to that where it was like,

[Barstool Co-Host]

you earned a shirt.

[Dylan]

We. I. I felt like at a certain point we earned shirts. Yeah, we earned shirts, but you have

[Barstool Co-Host]

to have your out no matter what.

[Harrison]

It's kind of like there are part. Like, there. There's kind of. There's a bunch of. Of different communities in this place called Pasco County, Florida. It's the nudist capital of the world. And each community has its kind of different flavor. Some of the rules in some of the communities are just stricter than others. And so they have places in the communities where it's like, you just have to be naked. You know, it's like near the Pool or by the Jacuzzi or, like, any kind of thing like that. It's like you have to be naked and then, you know, it's just kind of a vibe thing, too, of like,

[Barstool Host]

show you're not wearing a wire.

[Dylan]

Huh?

[Barstool Host]

Just to show you're not wearing a wire.

[Harrison]

Right, Right. Yeah.

[Dylan]

That was a nightmare for me, Mike. Every. Everyone naked. It was like, oh, yeah, what did you do?

[Barstool Host]

Or you just boom, boom exclusively?

[Dylan]

Yeah, I would boom. But a lot of our stuff, we like, like doing sort of verite style, so we put people far away in film, so. And, you know, we try to, like, not always be right in everything. So I would have to basically take like, bandage tape and, like, you know, depending on what the angle was, I would, like, do it under their armpit or, like, you know, in between their thighs and then run the wire fire up over behind their ear and then like, into their hair. And then into the hair, like, down by their forehead.

[Barstool Host]

You were putting it around their thigh as their ass naked just kneeling next to you. Yes.

[Harrison]

I have a photo of. Of Dylan miking up someone. One of our subjects just totally, you

[Dylan]

know, just the sax just like, right on my head.

[Harrison]

Yeah, he's just getting tea bagged.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

I went to a. A bar in. In Key west called the Garden of Eden. And it's like, for the first three stories, it's a normal bar, and then on the fourth story, it becomes like a nudist party after night. No phones and stuff like that.

[Harrison]

That's really cool.

[Barstool Host]

It is nice and like. But it is like a much older crowd where nudist colony, like, older, skewed older.

[Harrison]

Yeah, there's mostly older, and then there are like, you know, there's some young. Some young people that trickle in, but it's mostly older.

[Barstool Co-Host]

There any attractive people?

[Harrison]

Definitely.

[Dylan]

Really?

[Harrison]

There's a couple. Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

For sure. What I wonder.

[Barstool Host]

It's probably the best place to be attractive. Did you slip your shoes off?

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah, they were hurting.

[Harrison]

All this talk making me feel overdressed going in that. It could be a shoes off podcast.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Very overdressed.

[Harrison]

I actually like your sh. Your whole outfit is great.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Oh, that's very kind. That's makes the two of you. Everyone else hates my clothes, but we'll go shopping.

[Harrison]

I feel like you guys actually have similar style.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Definitely.

Yeah. You ever heard of Japan?

[Dylan]

Oh, yeah.

[Barstool Host]

Oh, baby.

[Barstool Co-Host]

They got the goods, bro.

[Dylan]

We got the goods.

[Harrison]

We were.

[Dylan]

We loved.

[Harrison]

I want to go so bad.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Would you guys ever do like a. Like, international neighbors?

[Harrison]

Dude, it would be so awesome.

[Dylan]

Absolutely.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That would be sick.

[Harrison]

I like the idea that, like, a whole season is just subtitled.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

There's just. It's like. Like subtitled, but it's. It's cool to think about, truly, like, not to get too deep, but, like, like, how do other countries deal with conflicts as simple as that?

[Barstool Co-Host]

That'd be amazing in China because, I mean, they sound like they're arguing regular. Sort of get them, like, in an angry dispute. Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

And it's like, the United States is pretty spread out, all things considered. So a lot of countries, European countries, way more on top of one another. And, like, that's why I'm always shocked. Like, you've the last episodes in Texas, and, like, my thought is, like, texas, Texas, it's your property. Live and let live. You just do whatever you want. But people really have, like, opinions about other people's stuff. Where it should be like, the, you know, land of the free type type of deal, but, like, seeing other people in different environments on closer quarters would be fascinating.

[Barstool Co-Host]

You learned from the first episode that there's almost no amount of land that exists where you wouldn't still be bothered by a neighbor because they were riding horses to see each other. It's as rural as it could get. I still found a way to hate.

They were a.

[Dylan]

A mile away from each other.

[Harrison]

That's crazy.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

That one got us so excited. Just like the. They are truly, like, out in the middle of nowhere.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

Like, they are.

[Dylan]

They both moved there to be. To have no neighbors.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That must have been brewing for so long, like, to get, like, in a beef that's a mile away.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Like, they must have been, like, just, like, looking. Looking down each other from far.

[Barstool Host]

Seeing if there's, like, a figure.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

Binoculars out. Yeah. I'm taking my horse over there.

[Harrison]

That is kind of the vibe, though. They're like. Yep. See all the. See over there? That's his house, and it's like a speck. And you're like, right, right, right.

[Barstool Host]

But then how they both were, like, they had the exact same interests.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

What was it like, World War?

[Barstool Co-Host]

Dungeons and Dragons.

[Barstool Host]

And Dragons.

[Barstool Co-Host]

We probably would have played a bunch by now.

Yeah, yeah.

[Dylan]

They were like.

[Barstool Co-Host]

That was really sweet that they finally admitted to some common ground.

Wasn't one of them, like, complimenting that? They were like, he's actually very talented in Dungeons and Dr. Yeah.

[Harrison]

Yeah, yeah. He is a dungeon master.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah.

[Harrison]

Yeah, I heard he's a dungeon master. If it was cool, we would have played. Unfortunately not. He has a gate. Yeah. We really Wanted them to play Dungeons and Dragons?

[Dylan]

No, that would have been one of it so bad.

[Barstool Co-Host]

You. You shot some of these a while ago. Have you kept up. This is a corollary to my earlier question, but have you kept up with any of these people and have any of. Of them resolved anything? Again, don't answer for sure if it gives it away.

[Dylan]

I think some have. Have just like, the fire has dimmed.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I say.

[Dylan]

I don't know if it's, like, resolved. Like, I don't know if they, like, love each other, but I think that the, like the fieriness of the. Of the dispute. Because I also think. And sometimes. And I think our show sort of does something where, like, both sides get to kind of exercise their. Their anger at the same time. And I do think it kind of takes the temperature down ye end of

[Harrison]

the day, at least for a bit.

[Dylan]

At least for a little while.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

The. Was there you. You highlighted in the one with the two women in the little strip of grass.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

And then, you know, also the. The Vietnam vet and. And the guy. I can't remember their names. I'm sorry, but that everyone was, like, had guns and that there were life threats. Was there ever a moment where you thought, boy, we're close to a murder here. Like, we. Or we're in danger or anything like. Like that?

[Harrison]

I don't think, like, we ever. I think the only. The time where Victoria shows us her gun and she just, like, doesn't know. She's like a Nike loaded, I think was like, the closest we actually felt to like, us being in a harm because, like, that's like, the scariest thing is the gun to accidentally go off and kill one of us. Like, when that was happening, I just imagined the headline like, of just like, like, film crew. Someone in a film crew died because a gun went off.

[Dylan]

Yeah.

[Barstool Co-Host]

But she just, like, pulls it out of a drawer. Like, it's not in, like, a safe.

[Harrison]

Yeah, yeah.

[Dylan]

Under a sweater in her closet.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

Drops it.

[Barstool Host]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Harrison]

That was the scary. I mean, I think, you know, when. I think when. When Johnny, like, threatened us in that moment, like, I think we were, like, freaked out and. But in terms of, like, them actually hurting each other, I think we were never on. Honestly, like, this is gonna get to that point. You know, it felt dangerous because, like, when Victoria's, like, throwing the bushes really well, it's a real physical thing she's doing, but we were never, like, they're actually gonna go over and, like, shoot each other. You know, it's Sort of a threat, wouldn't you say?

[Barstool Co-Host]

I guess they also know they're being filmed, so that would be a pretty bold.

[Dylan]

Right?

[Barstool Co-Host]

Pretty bold move. Yeah. I'm gonna kill the neighbor.

[Harrison]

Wait till season 50. The world has told. Yeah, exactly.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Like, well, we got you miked up and there's cameras everywhere.

[Harrison]

Right.

[Barstool Host]

But I kind of would as a. Like, if I was making a. A film about that, I'd be like salivating a little bit. Like a little bloodlust.

[Dylan]

Right, right, right.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Not blood, but maybe like a warning shot.

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

Or like grays. Gray.

[Harrison]

You just fire it once. Not at them, obviously, if you wanted to. No, I, I mean, we, we have to constantly check ourselves when we're making this show and remind ourselves that we are filming. Filming with real people. Like, because I think it's really easy when you're making documentary to be like, this is the story we're telling. This is where we want the story to go. And I think every day we're constantly checking ourselves, like, what are these people actually doing? What are we following? You know, like. Yeah, so, yeah, it's a constant negotiation.

[Barstool Host]

Is there, like, are there plans for what you guys are going to do next? I'm sure that this has opened up a lot of opportunities. I'm sure a lot of people love it as much as we all do.

[Dylan]

Well, hopefully, hopefully. Can you do it again? Yeah, yeah, hopefully do it again.

[Barstool Host]

Run it back.

[Harrison]

Get a pod, guys.

[Barstool Co-Host]

No word.

[Harrison]

A couple more podcasts.

[Dylan]

Podcast going.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Well, you could, yeah, you could do what every other sitcom actor has done and just go, just start a podcast, talking about the episodes. I don't think it would last very long.

[Harrison]

Yeah, exactly six half hour episodes. No, hopefully we'll do, you know, another season and hopefully this show, I mean, we want this show to last as long as it can last, you know, and like we always, you know, imagined it as the next Cops.

[Barstool Co-Host]

I was literally just gonna say, like, I could see it being like a co. Yeah, just is always on.

[Harrison]

Yeah, exactly. Just keep running it, you know, so.

[Barstool Co-Host]

And it's like every episode it's like, I have an idea of what's going to happen, but it's going to be great regardless.

[Harrison]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Dylan]

I think it gets us excited to think about, like, taking on, you know, reality TV as something that's kind of become sort of a little soft and kind of like kind of hooked a little bit. Like it just feels a little like over baked. And I think bringing realness back to reality TV again and like making it bring the doc approach to that kind of thing I think is exciting for us. And there's so many different types of, like, sub genres rally television that we think we could, you know, have fun doing.

[Harrison]

Yeah.

[Dylan]

Like, bring that kind of, like, rawness to, you know.

[Barstool Host]

Yes. Well, dude, thank you guys so much for coming on. This is so fun. Yeah. You could just tell because we're gushing, but we're just all such big fans of it and, like, I want to see as much of it as you guys are ever allowed to make.

[Harrison]

Oh, that's nice. Thank you guys for having us on. We could just keep doing this for another four hours.

[Barstool Host]

A little fake job. Like you guys are in an editing bay eating.

[Barstool Co-Host]

Yeah.

[Barstool Host]

Doing absolute.

[Harrison]

No, you guys are making change in here.

[Barstool Co-Host]

We're changing the world.

[Harrison]

You guys are matters. Okay,

[Barstool Co-Host]

well, that you guys are capturing other people, but we're people living what you're filming, I guess.

[Dylan]

Cool.

[Harrison]

Appreciate it.

[Dylan]

Cool.

[Harrison]

Thank you.

[Dylan]

Thanks, guys.
