What happens when three buffoons give life advice, explore unrealistic situations and give random topics more thought than they probably deserve? It's the Spitballers podcast with Andy, Mike and Jason. A boom blam bing bing dong dong a chicka pow. Should have let me miming. Andy, you should've let me mim it.
Jason
I was more concerned about the level of gyration on your side of the desk.
Andy
It I thought if I move my body, something better would the soul would follow. Because you need soul to scat.
Mike
There was no soul.
Andy
No, that's what I'm saying. It was just.
Mike
There was no heart.
Andy
It was a heartless.
Mike
Soulless.
Jason
Yeah.
Andy
Amalgamation of sounds.
Mike
Mean no rhythm. The most too much swivel. Most mailed in. Scatter all time.
Andy
I don't have enough swivel. I think I need more.
Jason
I don't know if you equate movement to soul. I'd get rid of the movement.
Andy
All right.
Jason
You know. Welcome into the Spitballers. Andy, Mike and Jason back with you. Would you rather what's the difference? And we are drafting the best Tom Hanks characters on today's episode of the show. So there's a lot of them. You have that to look forward to at the end of the episode when we jump into our draft. You can follow the show on X at Spitballers Pod. You can subscribe and review the show over on Apple Podcasts or Spotify if you'd be so kind. And the number one thing you can do is tell your family and friends if you'd like them to enjoy their Mondays and Thursdays and whatever day we decide to post and every other day
Mike
because there's Hundreds of episodes.
Jason
307 episodes and counting. So let's continue episode 307.
Andy
Would you rather.
Jason
So would you rather. Question number one is which time travel power would you rather have 30 seconds into the past? And you can use it every 10 minutes? So a 10 minute cooldown.
Andy
10 minute cooldown.
Mike
Very handy.
Jason
One day in the past with a 15 day cooldown. Okay, so twice a month you can go back one day.
Andy
It's pretty neat.
Jason
Or 10 years into the past with a 30 year cooldown.
Andy
Man, this is actually a pretty interesting.
Jason
Do you stay there then?
Andy
Yeah, you live from there. So you go back 10 years.
Jason
Hold on a minute.
Mike
So you can't. It's not like an infinite time hack, Right?
Jason
So when I'm 30, I can go back to 20. Then when I'm 50, I can go back to 40. When I'm 70, I can go back to 60.
Andy
Yeah.
Jason
When I'm 90, if I'm lucky enough, I can go back to 80. That one's lame.
Andy
Yeah, and the problem here is you don't go back in. You know what I mean? Like I'm 40, I don't go back and become 30. I go back 10 years, but I would still be 40. Right or wrong?
Mike
I'm just saying, like if that's right, then that's dumb.
Andy
My point is, back to the future, he goes back to the past. He's not a baby, he's himself. I'm going back to.
Mike
Right, but in that scenario, you'd run
Jason
into your former self too.
Mike
Yeah, you got a paradox problem.
Andy
You got to kill your former self.
Mike
You also have a problem of what?
Jason
Wait, hold on, hold on, hold on. Okay, just to be clear, Jason's Gonna, as a 40 year old man, he's gonna go back in time to be 30. He's gonna kill the 30 year old version of himself and have a horrible surprise for his wife being 10 years older when he walks in.
Mike
And that's what I'm Saying, like, the benefit.
Jason
He's gonna see through this.
Mike
Like, if you go back. The thing about the time machine is you get to go back and visit, and then you can return to where you're supposed to be. If all you're doing is just resetting, but you're still old. Like, that is not. All right, that's not helpful.
Andy
So there's two advantages here. One, you get to become younger.
Mike
Yeah.
Andy
And two, you don't have to kill yourself. Your former self.
Mike
Well, it's not yourself. It's another version of you.
Andy
That's yourself is another version of you. Someone else.
Mike
Hold it.
Jason
It's an alternate self. Different memories, different experiences.
Andy
No, you have the same memories and same experiences.
Jason
No, you have 10 years.
Andy
Well, you have extra. Yeah, listen, you have 100% of what he has.
Jason
The 10 years into the past. If you go back and you save the time, if you live to 90, it seems like you'll save about 40 years of your life.
Andy
That's pretty big.
Jason
That's quite a bit.
Andy
And at this point in our technological advancements, 40 extra years might be a hundred extra years. You know what I'm saying? Because by the time I've gained an extra 40 years, I mean, the medical advances are going to be astronomical. Not to mention the amount of wealth I have accumulated by constantly going back 10 years in time. And I'm not even talking, like, bet. I'm just talking investing. I'm not, like, betting on a sports game. I'm just going like, oh, this company's gonna do pretty good.
Mike
Medical advancements. Medical.
Andy
I'm saying if. If you gain 40 years by the time you're 90.
Jason
But progression of technology doesn't.
Mike
The time has not advanced.
Jason
40.
Mike
You're just. You're getting a bonus 40 years of life.
Jason
Honestly, you'll just be mad because you've been 10 years in the past technologically, from where they've advanced. This is a tough one for Jay to get.
Mike
You need to spend a lot more time thinking about time travel and how it actually works.
Andy
That's what we're doing right now. We're investigating the importances of. Of relativity.
Jason
Now, yes, the importance is. All right, so that one is. That's a big jump. But I want, for one time, 307 episodes in one time. I want you to take away the financial gain from the equation.
Andy
I agree.
Jason
Just tell me why you do it. Otherwise.
Andy
First of all, the plural noun is importances. That's the full word. So eat it. Okay, I just Googled that, but yes.
Jason
All right.
Andy
Let's take the financial gain out. Which, I mean. Okay, okay, we'll take the financial gain out. But you're telling me that if I go back in time, I'm like, does that mean I'm not allowed to use the stock market or I have to, like, blindly?
Mike
You can't. That's just.
Jason
That is.
Mike
That is built in.
Andy
We don't have the knowledge of.
Mike
We understand. But here's the thing. If you go back in 10 years or you go back 10 years and you use all of your knowledge you have now, Butterfly affected yourself into a, like, you're on a different timeline now.
Andy
I'm on a much better path, Mike.
Mike
This show doesn't exist.
Andy
I'm much better. We're talking significant.
Jason
Because that scat you just did wouldn't exist either.
Andy
Right. Much better path.
Mike
All right.
Andy
Okay. Financial gain off the other ones, obviously, the fact that you can go back every 10 minutes, it. Go back. What is it, one minute?
Mike
30 seconds?
Sponsor Voice 2
30 seconds.
Andy
Oh, 30 seconds. Geez, that's. That's not. That's not a lot. I feel like that's like an accident. That's like, oops, that wasn't a fart. Wait a minute.
Jason
How fast. How fast can you eat an entire cake?
Andy
Well, you can still enjoy.
Jason
No, because you go back 30 seconds of the breath, and you didn't have to. The calories are gone.
Andy
Oh, you don't. I'm sitting here thinking I get to eat you again. I mean, both are true.
Jason
You can eat it again in 10 minutes. Yeah, yeah, you can eat it again. You got to have a 30 second clock because you're only going back 30 seconds. So 30 seconds. Eat as much as you can go back in time, no calories.
Andy
I don't think 30 seconds is really going to fill the bill.
Mike
My thought for the 30 seconds, I mean, accident, avoiding accident, of assuming you're not just instantaneously gone. Like, that's good. But my other thought was, how many conversations? I'm not even asking. You're in them. You're in conversations all the time. And there's that thing you're like, I want to say this right now. That's good to this person's face. I want to say it, but, you know, for just humanity, kindness, the relationship, you're like, I can't say this because this will. This will.
Andy
This will fracture the freedom if.
Mike
Just be like, no, I'm going to
Andy
say this to you. The freedom that's gonna get you in big trouble. I tell you what you're gonna do. Nine minutes later, you're gonna do it again and you're gonna go, no.
Mike
Crap. Oh, crap.
Andy
I can't go back anymore. I gotta wait. I didn't wait my full 10 minutes.
Jason
If you're in a nasty job that you have to keep, yeah, you can quit.
Mike
Yeah, you can quit multiple times a day.
Jason
Yeah, multiple times a day.
Mike
Go let your boss know.
Jason
I've always had a problem with this time travel.
Andy
Yeah. I'm a pee on the floor right now. What are you going to do? Boink.
Jason
Just time it up right, man.
Andy
Right. That's what I'm saying.
Jason
You're playing pee for 35 seconds and
Andy
you go back to the beginning of your pee. Yeah.
Mike
Well then it's only a five second pee.
Andy
That's still enough, I promise. Legally speaking, it's enough.
Jason
I've always had the hardest problem with these time travel questions. When it comes to the 30 seconds in the past, I always want to say, oh, the accident that I can undo. Except for like, I cannot think of any time. I can't think of any time in my life and maybe I'm not thinking hard enough yet. Where if I just had a button right? Like I'm just, you know, I've got a, I've got a little buzzer where I wish I could have hit that.
Mike
A car crash. 30 seconds is plenty of time to
Jason
fix a car crash if you're surviving.
Mike
Yeah, yeah. That's what I say. If you're not instantly gone, if you're just like, you're like, oh, spinning and
Jason
falling off a cliff or something. Oh, then you hit it.
Mike
Yeah. 30 seconds is plenty of time to correct that.
Andy
Yeah, yeah, that will get you out of it. But what about the one day in the past, every twice a month, do you just relive an awesome day? You're like, man, that was awesome. My team won the game.
Jason
I've always thought reliving one if you have the memories is not great. It's boring. It's only great because it's the first time you experience it. Isn't that a little bit like, for example, maybe it's a terrible example. First time you see the Grand Canyon, it's a beautiful day. You see everything. You can go back the next day. I mean, a regular person could do that. They could go back the next day. They don't.
Mike
Yeah, no, that's not what I do.
Jason
So when you relive it, do you get, is it fresh?
Andy
You have chances to do full do overs, A first date that goes wrong, a job interview that you didn't get. You can go. You can wait a couple weeks, practice, you know the questions. You can go backwards, redo it, as opposed to.
Mike
You're on a game show, not financial game.
Jason
Just.
Mike
You want to be really good at the game.
Jason
I say enough dumb stuff. I'm taking the 30 seconds. I think the 30 seconds is perfect for. Because sometimes you say the thing to the person that you don't want to say, and sometimes it's helpful, but you just don't say it because you don't want to take the chance.
Mike
Right.
Jason
I might. One of these days I'm going to say that thing to Al Borland I've been wanting to say, and it might go, well, he might change that horrible part of his life.
Andy
But until then, no way do you know for fully how it went in 30 seconds, because you can only go back 30 seconds.
Jason
So if you don't, you've got an indication.
Andy
You've got an indication you're sure.
Jason
Some of the things I'm going to say, I'm going to know pretty quick,
Andy
and you're going to think, oh, this went well. But then a minute later, you're going to be like, I shouldn't have said that.
Mike
It's all right.
Andy
I'm definitely going 10 years.
Jason
I mean, every time Al tries to explain rules on the game, I add
Andy
40 years to my life.
Mike
But it's not adding because it's redoing.
Andy
Yeah, but I think redoing can be improved as well. Like lessons learned, more knowledge, more wisdom,
Jason
you know, use 10 extra years to fix my parenting mistakes.
Mike
Yeah.
Andy
I think I could become a better person, a better father.
Mike
Sure. But in the. In the better investor.
Andy
Well, I'm not allowed.
Mike
I know, but also, I mean, you weigh the complete other side. In those 10 years, there are tragedies that have happened.
Andy
I'll be prepped. Oh, my God.
Mike
I don't think that's how it works.
Andy
Yeah, I'll be totally fine. Be like, I went through this.
Jason
Your wife. Your wife goes and sees that in the closet, you've already, like, got flowers set aside, and you've got some things.
Andy
Yeah, but you know what? You know what?
Jason
That suit pressed.
Andy
Look, some of these things, though, going back that far in the past, we're talking early detection, we're talking changes to tragedies. You know what I mean?
Jason
Some, not all dietary.
Andy
Yeah, well, sure. I'm just. I'm talking like, you know, someone gets cancer, and it's like you found it too late.
Jason
Well, just out of curiosity, hold on. If somebody was diagnosed with cancer that you know today and you could go back 10 years, what are you doing to help?
Andy
I'm making sure they just get it checked out early. You know what I mean? Like, early vaccination.
Jason
It's a pretty good answer.
Andy
Yeah. It's not like, stop eating Skittles. Okay, you gotta cut that out. You're gonna get cancer. No, this is just, you know, science.
Jason
You're not allowed to tell the people what's gonna happen. You just have to hint and, like, try to help.
Andy
Yeah. Oh, I got this colon box for you. I got an extra one. I ordered two. Why don't you just try it out?
Jason
Do you remember that show, the TV show Early edition? He got.
Mike
Oh, the newspaper.
Jason
Tomorrow's newspaper today.
Andy
And there was always a tragic, monstrous
Mike
event that hit some big show the
Andy
world every single day. All right, so I'm taking 10 years in the past, you guys, 30 seconds of the past, and I am going to use it for investing. All right, what's the next question?
Jason
This one comes in.
Mike
I can also do investing in 30 seconds.
Andy
That's true. Live betting.
Mike
Yeah.
Jason
This one comes from a Patreon supporter. Would you rather drink a 32 ounce glass of milk through a sour punch straw?
Andy
Okay.
Jason
Doesn't seem that bad.
Andy
Sounds pretty good.
Jason
Or eat two Reese's cups filled with mayo instead of peanut butter? The first one sounds. The first one sounds great.
Andy
How many ounces are in a gallon?
Jason
64.
Mike
16 is lower.
Jason
I think a gallon's like 120 something.
Mike
Oh, my gosh.
Jason
It's a cakewalk.
Mike
No, I'm going. Well, we need to find this out.
Andy
Yeah. How many ounces?
Jason
128. You're right, 128. Dude, this is just a quarter of a gallon of milk through a. I might do this tonight.
Mike
Yeah, this sounds like a good.
Jason
Sounds like tonight's activity.
Mike
Trying to figure out what they're saying. It's a sour punch straw. So you're creating sour milk, which is for a moment. Yeah.
Andy
The beginning of a sour punch straw is sour. And that's part. And then it's like super sweet and delicious. That's the allure. That's fine. I'm going to get a freezing, freezing cold glass.
Jason
Let me fix this. Let me fix this. The milk is 5 days expired. I don't even know regular straw. 5 days expired. Or the Reese's drawer.
Mike
Don't go expired. Just make it a sour milk. What's the human limit of.
Jason
Because, like, there's a gallon, you can die you can't.
Mike
You'll barf.
Andy
Yeah, you'll barf. You'll die.
Jason
You can die. Yes, you can.
Andy
From drinking one gallon.
Jason
Yes, you can.
Andy
You're like, if you don't barf, you die.
Jason
No, you can still barf and then you can end up having.
Mike
You die from barfing. You break stuff down there. So what's the.
Jason
What can you do down where?
Mike
In your stomach, in your intestines?
Jason
What? Yeah, people have passed.
Mike
Then what's what you can actually drink where barfing is probably. It's probably going to happen, but it might not. But it's going to be real painful. So is that 64?
Jason
64 would be a lot of milk, but it also sounds pretty decent.
Andy
I think you're fine.
Mike
Artificial intelligence says you can't die from it.
Jason
No, there have been people that have died from it.
Andy
Were they in a car crash while they were drinking milk?
Jason
In 2012, doctors described how a 54 year old man found himself in the hospital unit after chugging an excess of cow's milk over a couple of days. All right, this is not a good example.
Mike
I can handle a gallon of milk in a couple days.
Andy
I can do that over a couple days.
Mike
Cereal, probably a day.
Jason
You know, AI is not always right.
Mike
I could take down a gallon.
Jason
I read an article once.
Mike
Yeah, the studies show.
Jason
No, I did, I did. I swear it.
Mike
We've all read lots of things and told AI stories.
Jason
All right, the milk one sounds like the easy choice. Now would you. Is there, I mean, mayo inside of Orici's is disgusting.
Andy
Mayo and chocolate. It is probably not that bad. It's genuinely probably not that bad. Mayo is like a base for so many things that you eat and you love and it's delicious. Like, I know people like my daughter just hates mayo. Mayo is the worst thing in the world. Can't stand it, but eats plenty of sauces that are mayo based. You know, it's like you realize that's just mixing mayo and relish. That's all. That's all the tartar sauce is.
Mike
Put some ketchup in that man.
Andy
Right? Oh, then you got Thousand Island. It's like. So I do think chocolate and mayo, there's a chance. It sounds disgusting, but there's a chance. You're like, you find something there. You know what I mean?
Mike
If you found out that mayonnaise Reese's cups are tasty.
Andy
Yeah.
Mike
You're in big trouble.
Andy
You're. Oh, because Big Reese is coming after you.
Mike
Well, because you're gonna be eating you're gonna be eating chocolate mayonnaise.
Jason
Do you see they have peanut butter and jelly. Reese's coming out. Grape and strawberry.
Andy
You have my attention.
Jason
There's a layer at the bottom of the Reese's. You gonna look it up? I am. This one's real. You cannot eat a gallon of Reese's. All right. Without dying of happiness. Peanut butter and jelly.
Andy
Reese, I can't spell strawberry. Wait, there we go. I got it.
Jason
This is the struggle with the strawberry.
Andy
I forgot that W in there.
Jason
Strawberry.
Andy
It looked super wrong.
Mike
Strawberry.
Andy
Strawberry.
Jason
Okay. Whether you could die or not, I want the milk in this one. It's easy.
Mike
That one is very easy. That's a small glass of milk.
Jason
Did you look up the Reese's?
Mike
No. I thought Jason was on it.
Jason
I feel like you should have found it by now.
Andy
I should have. If it were real, you would have
Mike
found it by now.
Jason
No, it is real.
Andy
I see it looks awesome.
Jason
Yeah. Grape and strawberry. Two options.
Andy
Peanut butter and jelly. I haven't been eating a ton of sugar, but I'm getting this immediately.
Jason
Okay. Immediately. There you go. Nerd 750 from Patreon. Would you rather have your neck fixed in place without the ability to rotate side to side? Oh, can you not rotate?
Mike
The OG Batman movies.
Jason
He couldn't move them.
Mike
No. Every time he looked at something, it's a full shoulder turn
Jason
or. Sorry. Rotate. You could not rotate it side to side with your eyes fixed in place. Wait.
Mike
Sorry.
Jason
Sorry. I lost myself.
Andy
So wait, these aren't out to purchase yet or what?
Jason
Jason's busy searching for that, and that's
Andy
what distracted dropping in 20, 25. We don't need, like, year long.
Mike
How long does it take to put jelly in there?
Andy
Squirt some jelly in there. Get in my mouth.
Jason
You can do this yourself.
Andy
Not. Not like they can. I want it. I want to. I can see him with a syringe.
Jason
He's gonna have a soda.
Mike
You just dip.
Andy
No, I want it inside the.
Mike
Because I like in the cup.
Andy
I like the cup being in the fridge. I like the cold cups.
Mike
Then they're too crispy.
Jason
The reason I like the crispy up is because I thought Mike found out that I was lying, which is not a lie.
Mike
I thought so, but no. It's looking good.
Jason
Let me start over. Nerd750. Would you rather have your neck fixed in place without the ability to rotate side to side? Okay. The Batman or your eyes fixed in place without the ability to look side to side so your eyes can't move? Okay. So your eyes are stuck here, and you can move your head.
Andy
Okay, I get it.
Jason
Or your neck can't move, and you can move your eyes. What a dumb question.
Andy
Who wrote this in?
Jason
What a stupid, stupid question.
Andy
So essentially, while I'm sitting here, I can look towards you, Andy, or towards Mike, but I can't, like, without moving my head. Okay. I'm trying this on for size. I can't see much. Like, if I try to see you, Andy, or you, Mike, without moving my head. Both suck. Like, I'm seeing nobody now. If I've got to turn my whole body to you, I. Granted, I'm in a swivel chair. It's pretty easy in a swivel chair. I'm definitely taking the. No moving the neck. I think that's probably better.
Mike
I've ran the options, and you're right. This question's dumb.
Jason
I. You know, I've had the occasional. I wake up. Like, when we go on the road, I'll sleep on the wrong pillow. And I've had it where.
Mike
Like, the old sleep injury.
Jason
Yeah. I basically can't move my neck. Like, I had to do a live show once where I was like, yeah, I think that was doable.
Mike
Anybody our age is.
Jason
But not moving my eyes seems like a major problem, because if they're just fixed for it and I'm using a computer, I've got to move my neck every time I look up. I don't know. Maybe that's not a big deal.
Andy
The big deal here, driving. Because I know that, like, I'm teaching my oldest to drive, which.
Jason
Only one of them, though, right?
Andy
Both of them, actually. And, you know, one of the things, you always need to look over your shoulder to make sure you're looking at oncoming traffic or, you know, when you're blinkering, when you're changing lanes. But I always tell them, like, your head's got to be on a swivel. You can't turn your shoulders or you will turn the car. You know, you really can't. Your hands are on the steering wheel. So if you've got to turn your shoulders all the way, you can't really do that.
Jason
Cars now, though, cameras. I mean, they got cameras for everything.
Andy
That's true. That's good. You're right. I don't look anymore at all.
Jason
Well, look, I mean, I'll be honest. I still turn when I look. Like, when you back out, are you turning every time?
Andy
Yeah. Yes, every time.
Jason
Even when you have the camera for the backup camera?
Andy
I have the camera on the back. I've got a camera on the side, and I use my eyes and I look and I see. Because here's the thing.
Mike
I use my eyes, too, on the
Andy
camera when I say that. I do every time. I do almost every time. And every now and then when I don't and I back out looking at
Jason
the camera, freaked out.
Andy
Someone is driving. Like I'm pulling straight back on a parking lot and then a car that was coming that I couldn't see.
Jason
I won't do that.
Andy
Sure. If you're at home and, you know, nobody's there or whatever. I'm a. This is a dumb question.
Jason
Yeah, dumb question. I think what we're deciding.
Andy
I'm going to take the.
Mike
Take the car cameras.
Andy
I'm going to take the car cameras, too, Mike.
Mike
Nice.
Jason
All right, we'll take a break and come back with what's the difference? What's going on, everybody? I have a busy life.

Jason
What's the difference between me and you? Me and you? Well, sometimes we handle dumb questions. We do stuff like that. We keep you entertained.
Mike
You know, we're.
Jason
You're a little old dancing clams. Sometimes you get into serious stuff and we want to distinguish between A, B and C. And again, what's the difference is when we do that, we science ascertain the difference between things so you can move forward in your life with clarity and understanding. Which is why I want to know the difference between a poop, a dump and a turd.
Andy
That's size.
Mike
This is.
Andy
I'm just, I look, sometimes you came to the right. You came to the right.
Jason
A dump is the biggest, right?
Mike
Oh, dumps, the biggest.
Andy
You don't go and take a small dump. I feel like that makes no sense.
Jason
I feel like a poop and a turd.
Mike
A turd is a singular.
Andy
Yeah, turds. A little tiny nugget.
Mike
Well, no, no, it's just. It's one no matter what.
Andy
Yeah, but it's small. If you have a massive turd, that's a dump. I promise. You take that one where it's hanging outside of the water and you go, oh, that's a dump.
Mike
I object. I've never taken a single turd or released a single turd and called it a dump.
Andy
Yeah, because you know what a turd is? If you have a turd, you would never call that a dump. It's not big enough.
Jason
Let me ask you a question. You know that little plastic so gross pieces of poop that people will set around as a gag Right.
Andy
What is that?
Mike
That's a poop.
Jason
That's a poop.
Mike
That's a poop. Yeah.
Jason
That's not a turd. Well, it can. And what if you left a turd on someone's car? It should just be a little piece.
Mike
Yeah.
Andy
Yeah, I think so.
Jason
Are you talking about. I think I'm.
Mike
Are you talking about.
Jason
You're thinking.
Mike
Are you talking about the one that looks like the. It's the swirly.
Jason
The emoji. Yeah.
Mike
Yeah, that's a poop.
Andy
Yeah, that's a poop. Not a turd. I've been working with the one if
Mike
it looked like, you know, it's just
Andy
like a candy bar. Yeah.
Mike
Eric. Yeah.
Jason
That's a turd.
Andy
Yeah, a turd. Yeah. Yeah, I would say.
Jason
And what would be if you left a dump on someone's car?
Mike
Oh, it's everywhere.
Andy
Dude, it's a problem.
Mike
Get out the fire hose.
Jason
Does it have to have a consistency to be a dump?
Andy
It can be any consistency.
Jason
A dump can be anything.
Andy
You can spray that stuff. You can lay that stuff. Whichever one you want.
Mike
This is spray.
Jason
You could lay.
Andy
You could spray or lay. You could do both. You can lay and then spray on it. I mean, a dump is just.
Jason
But you can't spray a turd.
Andy
You cannot spray a turd, and you
Jason
can't spray a poop.
Andy
No, the only. No, I don't think you can spray poop.
Jason
What happens when. Let me ask you this, because this is very important. You just got done with a huge dump.
Andy
Yeah.
Jason
You leave the room, you come back in, you realize you got a little more, and it's a squirt. What is that?
Andy
That's a squirt. You just said.
Jason
Oh, it's not a big squirt.
Andy
There are many more. Many more descriptive terms here for.
Mike
We're just trying to do these.
Andy
I got you for your squirts, your sharts, your double deckers, Pop Tarts. Yeah. There's so many great ways to defecate. But if we're talking about poop, dump. And turd is losing control. I mean, Deucer's Alley. Dooser's Alley is aptly named right now.
Jason
That's because poop is funny. It's funny.
Andy
Yeah.
Jason
Because it comes out of you.
Mike
It smells so bad.
Andy
Everyone poops. And that just means average. When you take.
Mike
Right.
Andy
When you go to the bathroom. And it's just what you're used to.
Jason
Somehow. This doesn't make sense, but somehow I think of a turd as being out of water and A poop of being in water.
Mike
No turd can be in. It can float.
Andy
Yeah.
Jason
Do you know what I'm saying?
Andy
It could be a floater or a sinker.
Mike
Yeah.
Jason
Which are other two categories, right? Like a floater.
Andy
Yeah.
Mike
Oh, yeah, yeah, I remember. That's a subcategory.
Jason
I remember clearly.
Andy
The ghost poop. That's one of my favorite and hardest to achieve. Oh, you know, tell me you haven't. You've experienced the ghost poop. You haven't experienced the ghost.
Jason
You look down and there's nothing there.
Mike
100%. Yeah, 100%.
Andy
You pooped.
Jason
You thought you pooped.
Andy
No, you did poop.
Mike
You know for sure you did.
Andy
I promise you pooped.
Jason
But there's no evidence it slipped down.
Andy
I think it goes all the way. It's like I'm flushing myself here. I got you.
Jason
Because you sent it into the water
Andy
at the right trajectory. The right trajectory speed. It dove, and there was no splash in that water. It's like an Olympic diver, and it just goes swoop right down the tube. And then you. You wipe and you look, because you're always gonna look. You wipe and you look and you go, I did it. I had the ghost poop.
Mike
Well, that's. I mean, now you're getting into, like. Like ultimate no wipers and things like that.
Andy
Oh, dude, the no wipers are amazing. Ultimate no wipers, Mike. I'm glad you probably are.
Jason
That you do wipe, but it's a surprise because there's nothing on it.
Andy
There's nothing on. It's clean.
Mike
That's like no wipers.
Jason
That's like a. Once or twice in your life.
Mike
The ultimate is when someone's just like. You bet on the no wipe, and you just like, I'm good.
Jason
You pull the.
Mike
No, no, I'm not saying I do it.
Andy
That's too far, man, because I've. I've had. That's disgusting. It's disgusting. I've had the 100. You always go, that one felt like a clean one.
Mike
Yeah.
Andy
But most of the time it's not. But every now and then, it's super not. You go, I was way wrong. I thought this was a clean one.
Jason
This is instead the marker once in a row. Oh, the markers are the marker that
Andy
Chris Pratt named when you just.
Mike
You could.
Jason
You wipe and you wipe and you
Andy
wipe in a row. It's like 20 flushes later. I'm like, dude, this. I have to have it all. There's no way. I don't want to shower right now.
Jason
The worst Is if you have the marker and you go through a bunch of wipes and then you go, oh, I do have to go a little more.
Andy
Reset the. I feel like at that point, you have to be helping because I think.
Jason
How many clean no wipers would you have to have in a row before you take the chance and just pull the pants off?
Andy
At least three, but that's impossible.
Jason
Okay, listen. I remember very clearly the floater was the most, like, the most popular in the house when we were kids, because it was like. That was the one you try to flush, and it'd still be there at the end.
Mike
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Jason
They don't go down.
Andy
That's just a bad toilet. Because that means not all the water's flushing.
Mike
No, no.
Andy
If all the water flushes completely, I promise.
Jason
No, no, no. I get what you're saying, but a
Mike
lot of them catching the new clean water.
Jason
Yeah. It's a moment. There's a moment when the floater.
Mike
It's the power. It's not the amount of water.
Jason
Did we settle this?
Andy
I think we settled it. Next time we'll talk about a floater. A ghost on a bridge.
Jason
A bridge.
Mike
Oh, no, we can't get into that.
Andy
Yeah. The bridge is a whole nother thing.
Mike
The bridge is to be an engineer marvel.
Jason
What is the difference between a friend, a buddy, and a chum?
Andy
I'm pretty sure chums are English. Am I wrong there?
Mike
It's English or it's a good chum. It's the stuff you put in the water to get the shark.
Andy
Yeah, right, right. But that's just.
Jason
It's so close to a chump, which is a different thing.
Mike
But so is it. Can you combine those? Like it's a friend. But if I needed to get a shark here.
Andy
Right.
Mike
I can throw him in the water.
Andy
The English one goes first.
Mike
Yeah, like I'm. Save yourself, maybe.
Jason
I mean, a friend.
Mike
What do you like English people?
Jason
I just. I don't know if the sharks.
Mike
I love gov.
Jason
I don't know if the sharks like them. Maybe they're not, you know, a friend. A buddy. Let's start. A buddy is not as close as a friend, right?
Mike
Correct.
Jason
A buddy is somebody that you.
Mike
They can become a friend.
Jason
I saw my buddy at the ball game.
Andy
I feel like a buddy.
Jason
I ran into my chum for some reason. What in the world?
Andy
So I am confused. I would like a little clarity on buddy because I feel like there is a little bit of seepage here from dadville where I feel like a buddy has to be Younger. Like younger than you?
Mike
Yeah.
Andy
You know, but I don't know if that's just my fathering instinct being like, you know, my kid is my son.
Jason
But, like, I think you can have a buddy.
Andy
You can have an older buddy.
Jason
A bud.
Andy
That feels weird.
Jason
An older buddy. Yeah. Within a year, so.
Andy
Well, sure. I'm saying, like, you know, we're middle aged, so let's give a five year difference.
Jason
All friends are buddies, by the way, but not all buddies are friends.
Mike
I think I can agree with that.
Jason
And none of them are chums because I'm not from bloody old England.
Andy
Right. I mean, I don't have a chum. I don't have a chum. I certainly don't. I think about all my buddies, all my friends.
Mike
Never had a chum.
Andy
Not once in my life have I had a chum.
Jason
Does this have to do with drinking tea? Can you not have a chum if you haven't had somebody over for tea? And that's why they have a bunch of chums over there.
Andy
I don't even think tea is enough. Because you could have tea if you don't.
Jason
And crumpets.
Andy
Yeah, you got to have the crumpets and tea because that's really English.
Jason
Crumpet.
Mike
Boston. Yeah.
Andy
Not. Man, I'm sorry, not today. We were on heater.
Mike
Yeah, we were.
Andy
That's really bad.
Mike
Close the show.
Andy
Yeah. Are we ready for the draft or what?
Jason
What makes somebody your buddy, though? How do you cross the line between acquaintance to buddy but not to friend? How do you thread the needle there? Is it someone you see twice? Is it a two time?
Mike
A buddy is your. You are. You will seek out to do something with them.
Jason
So pickleball buddies. I go to. I go to. I do go down there. They're not my friends, but I see them down there at the pickleball court. So they're my buddies.
Mike
Now, hold on. Is it a friend that you have just one particular interest? Yeah. You're like, oh, here's my pickleball buddy. No, this is like this.
Jason
I don't think so. No, no. Because I can see myself going to a party and say, oh, that's one of my buddies from work.
Andy
I think a buddy is someone you like, but all you do is work with them.
Jason
True.
Andy
You like a buddy. You're never like, oh, this is my buddy and I don't like him. You like a buddy. You just don't do enough.
Mike
That's what I'm saying. I think it's one thing.
Andy
Yeah. Whether it's. Whether It's. I mean, you could say it's only one thing. It's like my pickleball buddy. But it could be like. It would be a friend, but I don't see him that much. Like, we hang out, but, you know,
Jason
my friend from work. My buddy from work. I'm closer to the friend.
Andy
Yeah, you're closer to the friend. The friend is from work.
Mike
The friend from work means you're like, you're at work, but you're also willing to go to lunch with them.
Jason
All right, now, listen, this one has nothing to do with the first question, but what's the difference between a nook, a cranny, and a crevice?
Andy
Oh, it does. A nook, a cranny, and a crevice. Wow.
Jason
Now we know nooks and crannies are both part of an English muffin.
Andy
Well, right, right, right. But that's.
Mike
Which part is which?
Jason
Well, that's really what we're answering.
Andy
I feel like the nook would be the pivot, the divot.
Jason
Oh. Like if, like, a little meteor hit the. Hit the English muffin and created that little circle hole. That's a nook.
Andy
Yeah, I think that's the nook. But then what's the cranny on an English muffin? Is the cranny the part that sticks up?
Jason
Yeah. Well, no, I always thought a cranny was, like, a thin crevice.
Andy
What?
Jason
A crevice, which is also.
Mike
Crevices. Crevices. It's got to be vertical.
Andy
Really? Yeah. A crevice is usually vertical. That's right.
Mike
It cannot be a horizontal.
Andy
If it's horizontal. Is it a crevasse?
Jason
Wait, what do you mean horizontal and vertical?
Andy
A crevice.
Mike
You see, like, if you're gonna. If there's two objects and you're gonna squeeze between them, it's vertical. It's not a. You're not laying down and horizontally going through. It has to be up.
Jason
And which one is that? A crevice.
Andy
Yeah, that's a crevice, and a crevice is two separate things that are not connected.
Jason
You're sticking through sideways like this.
Mike
Yes.
Jason
And if you lay down and they're not connected.
Andy
Crevice is not connected. These are two things close to each other. Crevice creating a crevice. A nook is part of one object.
Jason
Here's a. Here's. I don't know if this helps, but I know that people sometimes in their house, they make a reading nook.
Andy
That does not help.
Mike
That hurts because it's Just like a little indentation.
Jason
Corner or something.
Mike
Well, there's a breakfast nook.
Jason
A breakfast nook? A reading nook.
Andy
Okay, so it's. Yeah, so it is. It is. Like the little hole or the little divot.
Mike
Yes.
Andy
In whatever. So that one.
Jason
We just don't know what a cranny is.
Mike
No, no, no.
Andy
Yeah.
Jason
What could it be?
Andy
I'm confusing it with granny so much I can't escape.
Jason
They're different words.
Andy
Is it the difference between the vertical, maybe?
Mike
Is that the horizontal one?
Andy
Like, if it's on the ground, is it a cranny? I don't see many crannies.
Jason
Just in the English muffins. I don't know. Another cranny out there. Can we get a. How many crannies are there in the world?
Mike
Well, if you count the muffins, there's unlimited.
Andy
Yeah, because they keep making more all the time.
Mike
I think we're stumped here.
Andy
When I image search cranny, it literally. They don't exist.
Jason
A small crack or crevice.
Andy
Right. Now, go to images and you won't find an image of whatever.
Jason
Search for a cranny.
Andy
To be honest with you, I promise you it's safe. Because all you're gonna get is pictures of a building that says nooks and cranny. I mean, there's. There is no. Oh, I found one. I found a cranny. And it's literally just a crack in the ground. I mean, it's so.
Mike
It is.
Jason
It's gotta be small, though.
Andy
It is so small.
Mike
But it's a crack.
Andy
It's a crack.
Mike
So you can't fit through it.
Andy
No, you can go through. You can go right through a crevasse.
Jason
Well, you might have to squeeze.
Andy
Otherwise it's a hallway.
Jason
Yeah, that's right. And that's not what we're talking about.
Andy
No, but a cranny is a teeny
Jason
little crack you walk on.
Mike
Wait, I don't want to divot.
Jason
You know, when you see the picture of the desert, it's so arid, and there's all those cracks in the ground.
Andy
Crannies.
Jason
Crannies.
Andy
Yep.
Jason
Okay.
Andy
All right, we did it.
Jason
One more, Al. Or are we moving on?
Andy
Let's do one more.
Jason
Okay, great. What is the difference between a path, a trail, and a walkway?
Mike
Well, a trail's outdoor, and it's like rocks or dirt.
Andy
A trail has been established before you get there. A trail has been trailblazed.
Jason
Well, all three of those, though, have been.
Andy
Well, but there's no.
Jason
I feel like a path Is more formal than a trail.
Andy
100%.
Mike
Yeah.
Jason
It may be paved.
Andy
That's the point. That's the point, Andrew. A trail is in nature.
Jason
And a walkway has nothing to do with nature at all.
Andy
Nothing to do with nature. In fact, oftentimes it's electrified. It's a moving automated walkway. This shouldn't belong in this question.
Jason
Yeah, I'm with you.
Andy
We're sitting here talking about nature and they're like, what about a walkway? Get out of here.
Mike
Why can't we get those in other places? Why is the airport the only place that. Why is there a strangleholder monopoly on the moving walkway?
Andy
Why at stadiums are they not moving walkways?
Mike
Those things are gigantic.
Jason
Do airports invent them and they have a patent?
Andy
They might have the patent. I'm on it.
Jason
That was a joke. All right. A path, though. Listen, I've been on trails that have part of the trail paved and it feels like you're cheating.
Andy
That is cheating.
Jason
But you could easily pave a whole trail.
Mike
Yes.
Jason
And it's so much easier to walk on.
Andy
I think if it's paved, it's not a trail. I really believe that. I think when you're on a trail and you get to a little paved portion, you have just exited the trail until that paved portion and you're on a path.
Mike
Now, I am in full agreement here.
Andy
A trail is like there's bushes on the left and on the right and whatever, but there's dirt from people before you clearing the way.
Jason
I also say this. A trail cannot be infinitely wide.
Andy
No, no, no. No way. There is a walkway could be pretty wide.
Jason
You could have a walkway between a building, between two buildings.
Mike
And it's super wide trails like two people wide.
Andy
Two people wide. You gotta, you've gotta. You can't pass someone going the other
Jason
direction without turning like you're entering some
Andy
sort of at least forcibly have to recognize them. You know what I mean? Like, you know, I'm passing, so it's not like, oh, I didn't even see that person on the trail. Then you're not on a trail.
Jason
Figured it out.
Mike
That was easy.
Jason
Got it taken care of. Taking a break.
Andy
No, airports do not have a patent on the moving walkways, by the way.
Mike
Then why can't they be other places?
Jason
Maybe we lost the blueprints. We don't know how to make them anymore. All right, taking a break. Hitting the draft.

If you're trying to be more intentional about what you wear every day, Quints can help with that. They've got pieces that feel easy, comfortable and still put together. The fabrics feel elevated and the fits are clean. Fun story. I've been buying from Quince for a long time and they've been working with the show. Love them. They've got all sorts of great stuff. Like think about 100% European line shorts and shirts. We wear only shorts out here for $34. That type of stuff. I go into our closet and lo and behold, there is a box from Quint's. My wife had separately found them and started buying from them. That's how good the products are. Because it's 50 to 80% less than what you'd find with similar brands. Quince works directly with ethical factories and cuts out the middleman legitimately. A great company, a great product. I love everything I've gotten from Quince. The specific shirts and shorts that I absolutely love. Those are my favorites. So comfortable. And in Arizona you need comfortable shorts all the time.

Jason
by the way, before I hit this button, Al makes a good point. If Disneyland or theme parks had moving walkways that went between rides,
Andy
I've thought this and my children have talked about this in the line.
Jason
Oh, just make the line that way.
Andy
Make the line. Chairs. Just move them. Just slowly move them. I don't know, just relax. Benches or whatever.
Jason
What do they dump you out on the end?
Andy
You can stand up.
Mike
It's all right. It would be like an escalator where once it gets to the end, that chair just goes back into the.
Andy
But imagine.
Jason
So it's like the. It's like at a grocery store when you put your food down on the. On the little food. And so it senses when there's another person up there.
Mike
Exactly.
Andy
And just moves you forward, moving you one person.
Mike
Not hard.
Jason
That doesn't sound that bad.
Andy
No, it's pretty great.
Jason
Okay,
Andy
The Spitballers draft.
Jason
Well, today we are drafting the best characters ever played by Tom Hanks, who has been in so many movies, shows, whatever. Tom Hanks, best characters. Jason, you have the very first pick and a lot to choose from.
Andy
Yeah, there's a lot to choose from. I feel like there's a one on one, at least for our generation.
Jason
I think there's two.
Andy
I agree that there are two.
Mike
I think there's three.
Andy
Well, that's good because you have the third pick. But Forrest Gump is iconic. The entire movie is Tom Hanks. He is.
Mike
Are you just listing things or is that your pick? No, that's my pick.
Jason
No, no, no, that's your pick. Yes.
Andy
Forrest Gump is the island, What I believe is the one on one, you know, did he win? He had to won the Oscar for that, right? I'm going to say he did so. Forrest Gump award winning character, Academy Award. And so it was the possibly. Yeah, no, I declared it, but yeah. Forrest.
Jason
Correct.
Mike
Boom. Yeah.
Andy
Yeah.
Jason
Best actor and best picture. Well, then I'm going to go with Woody.
Andy
Yeah, those are the two.
Jason
I'm going to go with Woody from Toy Story. Spanning more than just one measly movie.
Andy
You certainly get more movies.
Jason
So I'll go with Woody. I thought you'd take Woody and I'd end up with Forrest Gump, but those were the top two to me, man.
Mike
There's like. What the Toy Story. Franchise has become is. It's wild.
Andy
Are you happy that they made that a good thing or a bad thing?
Mike
I know. I think it's good. I mean, what they're working on five.
Jason
Apparently there are those. There are those that believe that they should have stopped after three, I think.
Mike
Yeah, I think the end of three was perfection. But four was still good. It wasn't amazing, but it was still. I enjoyed it.
Andy
It took away from the dominance of the three, though.
Jason
That's how it does affect the legacy.
Mike
Yeah, but I'm not like the whole Star wars thing.
Jason
You can't keep coming out with them.
Andy
You keep printing the same thing over and over and over and eventually it grows. You, you, you. You dig too far into the mountain. Yeah, but you let the.
Mike
But you can go back to Toy Story 3 and watch it and you're like, oh, this is great.
Andy
Yeah, look, but I don't want to because the fourth ruined it.
Jason
Difference of opinion. But all right. The point is, I have Woody.
Mike
Yeah, it's a. It's a very good pick. I'm going with two here. So my first pick here is hopefully you guys know the picture because I'm going to go with the name. Do you know the name Carl Hanratty?
Jason
Oh, you don't?
Mike
Dude, knock.
Andy
Who's there?
Jason
That's. Catch me if you can, right?
Andy
Yes, it is.
Mike
Absolutely.
Andy
Carl Hanratty was. There's no way that wouldn't have been my next pick. In fact, I will go so far as to say that would have been my second pick over Woody.
Mike
I told you there was three.
Andy
All right, you win this round.
Jason
That one's much lower on my list.
Mike
Oh, man. Catch me if you can is a perfect movie. And Tom Hanks is so good and so very funny in that movie.
Jason
And.
Andy
Knock, knock.
Mike
Yeah, see?
Andy
Oh, it's so good.
Mike
And now I don't even. I don't even know how to play the game for the draft here, so I'll just take the one I want to take. It's. This is a. I feel like this movie has been sort of lost in the shuffle. Just lost to time. But I watched it, you know, not like last month or any, but. But somewhat recently and was reminded how good it is. And in this movie, his name is Michael Sullivan.
Andy
It is.
Mike
And he is the character from Road to Perdition.
Jason
Okay, listen, I want to talk about that movie. Yes, I want to talk about that movie.
Andy
Oh, man. They're impassioned, dude. It's great. Never seen it.
Jason
Road to Perdition.
Mike
Jason, you are so lucky.
Andy
Talk to me.
Jason
It's Paul Newman.
Mike
Yes.
Jason
That's.
Andy
I don't know who that is.
Jason
Oh, yes, you do. You don't know Paul Moore.
Andy
I'm looking him up.
Mike
So it's Paul and not just for the dressings.
Jason
And Tom Hanks.
Andy
Oh, yeah, the dressing guy.
Jason
I remember when. I remember when that movie came out and I thought people would forget it.
Mike
It's the mobster movie.
Andy
I have no idea who.
Jason
Paul. Mobster. I genuinely thought this movie would be forgotten in this draft. That. That is an amazing pick, and that movie is very, very good. Very, very good.
Mike
I am so envious, Jason, that you can go home tonight and watch Road to Perdition for the first time. No. Do you know anything about it?
Andy
I don't know anything about it.
Mike
I will not. I'm not going to tell you anything about it.
Andy
Can't imagine. I'm going to do it, Mike. I don't think I'm going to watch it.
Mike
I promise you will love this.
Andy
Oh, hey, you know what? Time out. Oh, yeah, we do. Hold up.
Mike
Wait a minute.
Andy
We have an update. Where's our breaking news? Give us the breaking news here.
Mike
It does those buttons.
Andy
Oh, those aren't set up here. Oh, that's. That's quite a shame.
Mike
Doo, doo, doo.
Andy
Um, so last time we follow through. Last time on the Spitballers podcast, we had. I had a very deep desire to know my blood type. And. And it was impossible. Oh. Oh. This breaking news. This just in. The Spitballers crew all tested their blood and all know our blood type now,
Jason
not without some apprehension.
Andy
Well, there was blood everywhere.
Mike
That is not a joke.
Andy
First of all, there was blood everywhere. You have to do a little finger prick, which is the whole reason I tried to find a way out of this.
Mike
And you really tried to find a
Andy
way out of it.
Mike
After all of us doing it, you
Jason
felt the peer pressure. Cause all of our blood was spilling.
Mike
It was a group effort.
Andy
Jeremy's blood was everywhere.
Jason
He couldn't stop bleeding.
Andy
Jeremy just bled all over the table. This is a finger prick. I don't know how hard.
Jason
You have more blood than average.
Mike
No. Because this was not just. I couldn't tell you at the time,
Andy
but, dude, I still have my mark.
Mike
Oh, I still have my mark, too.
Andy
Those lancets are like little sores.
Mike
They're so intense of. I did a keto diet for, like, two years, so I'm testing my blood frequently. This thing was not just a tiny finger prick.
Jason
This thing.
Mike
I thought it hit me in the. In the fingernail. I thought it went through my finger.
Andy
It makes my butt clinch right now. Talking about.
Jason
Went to another room, turned the light out.
Andy
Yeah.
Jason
And did it there.
Andy
I had to. I kept.
Jason
And then came back with blood all
Andy
over his hand, just covered in blood.
Jason
It's like he's a murder scene.
Andy
I mean, I don't.
Jason
And he's trying to collect it as it drips off. Anyways. But you know your blood type.
Andy
I'm O positive, so there you go. And you two, congratulations on your great grades.
Mike
We're A plus.
Andy
You are A plus.
Jason
That's right. We have. I think Mike and I were the only eight. We were positives in the office.
Mike
It was a wild time, but we got it figured out. And now, Jason, you need to figure out how to rent Road to Perdition. I am telling you, man, it's a good movie. I am telling you. You are going to like this movie.
Andy
All right, you're going to have to remind me, because I can't do it tonight, and I will not remember tomorrow.
Jason
All right, I'll follow up. Woody with what I would say is like, on the Forrest Gump level of iconic performances by Tom Hanks, where he owns the screen the majority of the movie, and it's just too iconic of a time in history for him to be in that movie. I'm taking Chuck Nolan and Cast Away. I'm taking Chuck Nolan and cast. The movie was Tom Hanks on the screen.
Mike
It was, yes.
Jason
I'm not saying the movie was the best movie that's ever been made, but it was a good movie, and it should be seen one time. I don't care if you take Helen Hunt out of it, but the movie was good.
Mike
Why can't I do that to Helen Hunt?
Jason
I just don't like. I don't care for her.
Mike
What, you don't like Mad about you.
Andy
It's like, she's pretty annoying.
Mike
I like Helen Hunt.
Jason
It's like Mary Steenburgen in the third
Mike
Back to the Future.
Jason
Could have done without. Could have done without.
Mike
How dare you compare her to that?
Andy
That's a little too mad about you is all right, but mad about you was good. She was.
Jason
She's made for tv.
Andy
What was what?
Mike
Not a movie star.
Jason
Yeah. That's all I'm saying. Okay, Jason, you are back up on the clock. Mike has Carl Hanratty from Catch Me if youf can and Michael Sullivan for Road to Perdition.
Mike
Hot start.
Jason
I've got Woody and Chuck Nolan from Castaway. Jason has Forrest Gump. From Forrest Gump.
Andy
I do. I'm going to go with someone that he played that. That is an iconic person, someone near and dear to all of our hearts because he created a land of wonder and magic.
Mike
Really?
Andy
Yeah. I am taking his portrayal of Walt Disney. Oh, Tom hanks. At saving Mr. Banks.
Mike
I had no idea where that was going.
Andy
Saving Mr. Banks. Walt Disney. It was neat to see him come to life. He's played a couple of real life people that he has just done so well at. And I really want to take the next one just to stick it to Mr. Holloway. Oh, but I'm not going to. Oh.
Jason
Oh.
Andy
What is happening instead?
Jason
So you did take.
Andy
I took Walt Disney.
Jason
Okay. Okay.
Andy
And then I'm going to take Captain Miller from Saving Private Ryan.
Mike
Okay. Okay.
Andy
Very classic movie. I'm getting different styles here. We got real, we got war, We've got, you know, the saving. Well, I'm talking about my three different.
Mike
Oh, sorry.
Andy
I was like, how did Forrest Gump Save. So.
Jason
All right. So many movies that he's been in, so many good potential picks here. I think the Saving Private Ryan pick would have been my next one. I'm going to go with Josh Baskin in Big. I'm going. Tom Hanks in Big. That was one of the movies that I watched so many times as a kid. Special place in my heart. Special movie. Really cool movie.
Mike
I'm surprised you had the last name. When I was on IMDb, he's just listed as Josh.
Jason
Yep.
Andy
Josh Baskin. I had to Google it was on my list. And sadly, as I deleted Josh Baskin off my list, good pick, by the way. I realized there was someone I wanted so much more than Captain Miller.
Mike
Well, you see, if it gets bad,
Andy
I've already got my last pick planned, fellas. There's no way you're picking them, and there's no way I'm not.
Jason
Okay?
Andy
It's not me. It's up to you, Mike.
Jason
Mike, you have two.
Andy
I am very confused.
Jason
You have two picks.
Mike
All right. I don't remember how they say his last name in this because it's been so long since I've seen it, but it's Jimmy Dugan.
Andy
Yeah. That's the one I wanted.
Jason
What?
Andy
It's Dugan.
Mike
How would you think that was not in play. It's A League of Their Own, by the way.
Andy
No, no, no. That's not my last pick. I said that's the one I wanted for my previous.
Mike
Okay, okay.
Andy
Because my last pick is. You guys won't take.
Mike
Is your last pick wacky?
Andy
Maybe.
Mike
Is it.
Andy
Don't you.
Mike
Is it its own thing?
Andy
Don't you dare. No, no. It's your own thing, man.
Jason
Take it, man.
Mike
I had already. Which producers? Can we get back to work? I messaged Jeremy three minutes ago, and I said, am I allowed to take 100% David S pumpkins, baby?
Andy
Yes. It's a great. He's one of the best big characters of all time. One of the best characters of all time. Any question?
Jason
SNL character with Tom Hanks here. When you clarified.
Andy
Oh, man.
Jason
When you clarified in our Slack channel that you wanted characters, not movie characters, I 100% assumed that just meant you were taking Devin S. David S Pumpkin. David S. Pumpkin.
Mike
And I was. And I did.
Andy
Oh, I thought for sure that would come.
Jason
So now you get neither one.
Andy
He took both of your great picks, Mike. I mean, fantastic work over there.
Jason
Well, that means that I have Woody, Chuck Nolan from Castaway, Josh Baskin from Big, and I will close it out with Jim Lovell from Apollo 13.
Mike
Yeah.
Jason
Ironically. Just watched a full. Real documentary.
Mike
Ooh. On Apollo 13.
Jason
On Apollo 13. I highly recommend it.
Mike
Mike, what service is that?
Jason
I believe it's an Apple TV documentary.
Mike
I'm on it.
Jason
Actually, no, it's Netflix. It's a Netflix documentary.
Mike
Okay.
Andy
Actually, no, it's Hulu.
Jason
Look, just search for it. You'll find it. That story in real life.
Mike
Apollo 13 survival.
Jason
I don't know if that's it.
Mike
That's 2024.
Jason
That's it.
Mike
Yeah, I'm in on this.
Jason
You got to watch it. It's so good.
Andy
Dude, I'm watching that tonight.
Jason
Yeah, that is the one. It's all real footage. Like a bunch of unseen footage from the real events. But look, Apollo 13. Outstanding movie. Yeah. Final picture.
Andy
How long does footage get to continue to say unseen footage?
Jason
I don't know. Why?
Andy
Eventually, everyone's seen that. This unseen footage.
Jason
Yeah, it's like when the Jordan documentary came out. They're like, we got tons of footage no one's ever seen. Like who? It's 25 years. What do you mean you've never seen it?
Mike
Because it's on, like, a home video or a home camcorder.
Jason
But it's just all it is. When they say it, it gets me.
Andy
All right, all right, guys. This I'm out. Is an awesome pick. Not only is it such a great pick now, it was such a great pick the last time I made it. And because I made it, Robert Langdon from the Da Vinci Code. Welcome back to the squad. We're going to be solving riddles and finding treasure.
Jason
That movie with that mullet and hair both suck.
Andy
If. I swear, I promise you, if he did not have that haircut, the movie would have done great in the box office.
Jason
A movie.
Andy
It was awful. The first time in the history of movies where the. The makeup artist ruined a film. Ruined it. That mullet.
Jason
Do you think he looked in the mirror and was like, seriously?
Mike
That's it? That's the look?
Andy
Yeah.
Jason
Nobody took Mr. Rogers.
Andy
No, that was the one I wanted, but I've never seen it, so I don't know his. I'm sure he did great.
Jason
Paul Edgecomb and Green Mile.
Mike
It's the last one I would have taken if I couldn't go. David Pumpkins was going to be Mr. White from that thing you do.
Andy
Yeah, that was on the list. There's a lot of great movies.
Jason
It's funny that he was Michael Sullivan in Road to Perdition because he was also Captain Sully. Captain Sully.
Mike
Pro Tip. Don't watch that movie before you fly the night before you have an airplane flight the next day.
Andy
Watch it on the flight or don't
Mike
watch it on the plane either.
Andy
I am going to.
Jason
What you do. Hold on. You watch. You watch that movie when you take a boat ride, and then when you take a flight, you watch Richard Phillips and Captain Phillips when he was the boat captain.
Andy
I'm the captain.
Mike
Where do you watch Apollo 13 then?
Jason
Underground.
Andy
That makes sense. The math is checking out here. I genuinely believe that a role. I'm about to say you guys probably didn't see the movie. It might not know the character, therefore, but I think it might be his best character he's ever done.
Mike
I hope it's just like he did Tom Hanks cameo.
Andy
No, it was from the movie the lady killers. Professor G.H. doar.
Jason
If you haven't seen this, I've not seen the movie. I remember when it was coming out, I don't think it was very popular.
Andy
It wasn't. It wasn't a huge hit.
Mike
Oh, I remember this poster.
Andy
But his character in there is like nothing he ever played before or after. It's a dark comedy crime thriller. Yeah. And he is.
Mike
Oh, it's a Coen movie.
Andy
Yeah. The Coen brothers. Yeah, it's Coen Brothers.
Mike
I'll watch this. You watch Road to Perdition.
Andy
Okay. But just be amazed at his character because he doesn't do anything like this in all the movies we just picked in the undrafted list. He doesn't play caricatures. Funny, like absurd characters.
Mike
He's caricature.
Andy
And he is. He is in this. And he does it phenomenally.
Mike
If he looks like that and doesn't talk like Colonel Sanders, I'm gonna be bullshit.
Andy
Oh, you'll love how he talks.
Mike
Okay, perfect.
Jason
All right, that'll do it for today's draft.
Andy
What did we learn today?
Mike
Oh, man.
Jason
By the way, I was trying to learn the exact number of movies that Tom Hanks has been in. And no matter how many times I searched, it just kept saying over 100. I can't get an exact number.
Mike
IMDb actor credits is at 101.
Jason
Oh, well, that's over 100. I also learned that apparently the word importances is is a real world.
Andy
And I learned what a cranny is.
Mike
That's what I learned.
Jason
All right, that'll do it. Hope you enjoyed the episode. Thank you for tuning in supporting the show, leaving review, telling your friends all the good stuff. We'll be back with another episode very shortly. And a spit hit on Thursday.
Mike
Goodbye.

Release Date: April 30, 2026
Hosts: Andy, Mike, and Jason
This episode of the Spitballers Comedy Podcast dives joyously into classic spitballing territory: the difference between types of bodily functions (with much debate and laughter about “ghost poops”), quirky “Would You Rather” dilemmas, playful language distinctions, and culminates in an epic draft of the best Tom Hanks characters. As always, hosts Andy, Mike, and Jason riff their way through ridiculous hypotheticals with wild tangents, dad-joke energy, and hilarious debates—with a little genuine life wisdom snuck in for good measure.
Choose one time-travel ability:
"You're going to kill the 30-year-old version of yourself and have a horrible surprise for your wife being 10 years older when you walk in." (05:00)
"How many conversations…there's that thing you're like, I want to say this right now...but, you know, for just humanity, kindness, the relationship, you're like, I can't say this because this will fracture the freedom..." (09:28)
Andy: “I think I could become a better person, a better father…” (13:27)
Andy: “Mayo is like a base for so many things that you eat and you love and it’s delicious…Tartar sauce is just mayo and relish!” (18:01)
Andy
Jason
Mike
Mike speaks passionately:
“Catch Me If You Can is a perfect movie. And Tom Hanks is so good and so very funny in that movie.” (49:06)
Mike: “100% David S. Pumpkins, baby!” (57:27)
On Ghost Poops:
Andy: “You wipe and you look and you go, I did it. I had the ghost poop.” (31:33)
On Mayo in Reese’s:
Andy: “There’s a chance…You find something there. You know what I mean?” (18:31)
On British Chums:
Andy: “Not once in my life have I had a chum.” (35:26)
Jason: “Does this have to do with drinking tea?” (35:27)
On The Draft:
Mike: “100% David S. Pumpkins, baby!” (57:27)
On The Value of Walkways:
Jason: “Do airports invent them and they have a patent?” (41:46)
Andy: “Why can’t we get those in other places? Why is the airport the only place…?” (41:28)
On Tom Hanks’ filmography:
Jason: “I was trying to learn the exact number of movies that Tom Hanks has been in. And no matter how many times I searched, it just kept saying over 100.” (62:25)
If you want a laugh-filled, lighthearted listen with a mix of dads being silly, debating hypotheticals, and lovingly roasting pop culture, this Spitballers episode is a must. The “poop debates” are gross-out classics, the “Would You Rathers” spark surprisingly detailed discussions about life, and the Tom Hanks character draft is both nostalgic and fiercely conducted. You’ll walk away knowing the vital difference between a trail and a path—and possibly inspired to hold your own Tom Hanks movie marathon (just don’t do it while eating a mayo-filled Reese’s).
