Walt Flanagan
He's so horny for factor.
Brian Quinn
I don't co sign this accent. I just want to say. I want to say that's a factor. You haven't lived here to a strip club with Johnny Law and see him so incoherent, he could barely talk.
Walt Flanagan
Now Gideon has a picture of the. Of the three barons and the curator as a space monkey. Gideon, you should wear gold all the time. You look so much thinner.
Gideon Get Him
That is not.
Bryan Johnson
That is not him.
Walt Flanagan
Tell him. Steve Dave.
Bryan Johnson
Hello and welcome to this week's edition of Tell Them. Steve Dave. BQ is here.
Brian Quinn
Hello.
Bryan Johnson
Walt is here. Gideon is here. How you stack it and I am here. Q. You were wondering about this curtain that went up and.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, I came in. There's a. There's a steely gray curtain hiding off about quarter of the. Of the studio here.
Walt Flanagan
I'd say maybe less than a quarter
Brian Quinn
eighth, maybe an eighth, more than an eighth. Anyway, the green screen end of the. Of the studio is a lovely gray curtain put across.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah, I think it. We're in the process. Time moves differently here. I mean, I knew I probably shouldn't move that. May 9th date.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
About May 30th.
Brian Quinn
But it's not too late.
Walt Flanagan
No, no.
Bryan Johnson
May 9th of 2027. Right.
Brian Quinn
I don't even remember what you meant. I was like, what's May 9th?
Walt Flanagan
Oh, yeah, we got Dan Chow. Better be here. May 10th.
Brian Quinn
I got my Danhausen T shirt on.
Gideon Get Him
Number one selling shirt.
Walt Flanagan
Changed out the cabinet with a nice steel cabinet.
Bryan Johnson
Look at that.
Gideon Get Him
Beautiful.
Walt Flanagan
It's on wheels.
Brian Quinn
I didn't even know this. This couch had a wood element to it. It was always so cool.
Walt Flanagan
We're moving in a shaking over here, brother.
Brian Quinn
When you say we.
Walt Flanagan
Kim's doing a lot.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Okay.
Walt Flanagan
I'm not. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna say he's doing what needs to be done to meet Q standards.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Well, he's currently on a very high with me. His stock is quite possibly the highest it's ever been with me.
Walt Flanagan
How come he's
Brian Quinn
him and Key west was just a sight to behold. It was. It was amazing.
Bryan Johnson
You're going to want to schedule a couple game nights because he's back in action. The singing, the dancing.
Walt Flanagan
He's recovered fully. He was recovered from the spinal surgery.
Bryan Johnson
Yep.
Walt Flanagan
Okay.
Brian Quinn
I'm telling you this with it, and I mean this. Well, zero irony like what I'm about to say. I really feel in my heart of hearts, this guy fucking killed. Like I've only seen a few people Kill in my entire life. He sang karaoke.
Walt Flanagan
Oh, yeah.
Brian Quinn
And it was. It was unbelievable. It was. He was a rock God. He threw everything into it. He's saying, I want to fuck you like an animal. Like I, you know, get him next
Walt Flanagan
time that cube about a straw paper on the ground. Just break out a nine inch nail. As soon as he starts giving you some about, you know, something on the
Gideon Get Him
floor, just be like, come on Q, help me. I broke apart my insides.
Brian Quinn
I'm telling you, my work. Well, he was. First of all, his dad is just wonderful there.
Bryan Johnson
Was your dad there while you were singing this?
Gideon Get Him
No, no, no. But he made Ant send him the video.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Gideon Get Him
And he's trying to. He's telling. He's been showing it to family members.
Brian Quinn
It was great. No, you haven't seen it while nobody showed it to you.
Walt Flanagan
He showed me something.
Brian Quinn
It's. It was like every. Jaws were on the floor.
Walt Flanagan
Really?
Brian Quinn
I'm telling you all. I am not kidding. Jaws were on the floor. He blew the room away. Whatever I did on stage at the New Jersey roast, whatever the polar opposite of it is, is what is what Gidem did. It was. It was like it. I'm telling you, I have a decade of performing on big stages. That was one of the best performances I've ever seen.
Walt Flanagan
So. So do we need to go any further with the studio cleanup or.
Bryan Johnson
Might look like shit. Brookshield but listen to this song.
Brian Quinn
Yeah. We got a TV playing that footage 24 hours a day. I might not need it. He was so kind to everybody. He was so giving of his time to people. His dad is just lovely. Like, it was like. I think Gideon and I just needed a. Like a vacation. I think we needed to get out of our element together.
Walt Flanagan
There you go.
Brian Quinn
I'm in love with this guy right now.
Walt Flanagan
Okay, great.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Don't fuck it up.
Brian Quinn
I'm trying not to choose in every word. Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
I think my standards are a bit higher.
Brian Quinn
No, if you had been there, you wouldn't feel that way.
Walt Flanagan
Okay. Okay.
Brian Quinn
Because it's not just about like the fact that it was such a great performance. It's. You watched him shed all his bullshit and like just give in to the performance.
Walt Flanagan
I mean, I'm not going to get into it, but I was not been too pleased with him on a personal level.
Brian Quinn
Well, that's your fucking problem.
Walt Flanagan
I don't know if I could.
Bryan Johnson
I won't have you talk about getting that.
Brian Quinn
Dare you.
Walt Flanagan
I don't know if him breaking into song would have fucking make.
Bryan Johnson
Wouldn't have worked. It wouldn't have worked. It wasn't that, so. Especially that song. Any song.
Walt Flanagan
It could be my favorite song.
Brian Quinn
I was. I was so impressed. Yeah, he was. He was. It was good to see.
Walt Flanagan
Good. I'm glad.
Brian Quinn
Our whole crew.
Walt Flanagan
Hopefully. Hopefully that. That love affair, you know, hopefully the honeymoon lasts a long, long time.
Brian Quinn
I agree. I agree.
Walt Flanagan
I want to keep that, you know, Keep the. Every time you start to feel a little.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, A little like. I'll try irritated, you know, I feel he's earned it.
Walt Flanagan
Make a Key West.
Brian Quinn
I'm gonna. I'm gonna. I feel he's earned it. Our whole crew. Walt, you would have all of them. Home runs.
Bryan Johnson
Jimmy the hair guy.
Brian Quinn
Jimmy the hair guy is. Now I'm fully on board.
Bryan Johnson
I mean, I was on board.
Brian Quinn
I was. I was on board, but now I'm like, I fucking love this guy. Like, what a pleasant dude. What a nice guy. Like. Like Brian. He got a bloody nose on stage. Fucking did a great show through it. I was so impressed. Like, a gushing bloody nose, really? On stage during Space Monkeys.
Walt Flanagan
What caused that?
Bryan Johnson
Still not sure. On Thursday morning, I woke up. We got there Wednesday, Thursday morning, I woke up and I feel like my nose is, like, wet. And Marybeth goes, why is there so much blood in your beard? And I was like, what do you mean? And like, I looked down.
Walt Flanagan
Sounds like she's angry about it, though. Your tone of voice you chose for her. She's annoyed and irritated.
Bryan Johnson
I think she was more surprised. Like, what's going on? Is there surprise?
Walt Flanagan
A little bit of blood in your beard.
Bryan Johnson
Why is there a blood?
Walt Flanagan
Like, is it normal to wake up with any blood in your beard?
Bryan Johnson
Not usually. Not usually. Because when I tell you that, like, there. It would look like a crime scene. I took a picture. I put it on Instagram. Yeah, it was. There was so much blood on the sheets, on the pillow, on the way to the bathroom.
Walt Flanagan
Because you didn't know it.
Bryan Johnson
No, I woke up and that's just the way it was. Like, I didn't. I didn't wake up during it in a.
Walt Flanagan
Like a. Some, Like a stupor.
Brian Quinn
No.
Bryan Johnson
Not even partying?
Brian Quinn
No. He was in bed at, like, 8:00'.
Bryan Johnson
Clock. Yeah, it was weird.
Walt Flanagan
He just disappeared, I would think. I don't know if I could sleep through that.
Bryan Johnson
Like, you know, I slept through it and so I didn't. I wasn't. I didn't know what to do because it wasn't just a trickle. It was like it was flowing.
Brian Quinn
It was a gush.
Bryan Johnson
And so I looked online, and I'm like, all right, the best advice so far that I've seen is like, pinch your nose with a. With a rag and hold it up or hold it forward. Don't hold it back because it'll go in your stomach. And so I did that, and it stopped. And then a little bit later, I like, this is disgusting. So if you don't want to hear something disgusting, tune up for a second. Blood clots were, like, forming in my nose. So, like, I shot them out of my nose, and then all of a sudden, it cleared up. So I'm like, okay. Like, I guess it was just, you know, like, dry air or whatever. Air from the. Recycled air from the airplane. And that night we went on the boat. Q rent a boat for everybody to go out on.
Brian Quinn
And the artists and stuff. It's like a sunset cruise on a giant category.
Walt Flanagan
Artists.
Bryan Johnson
Artists. Yeah, I was one of them.
Brian Quinn
He's one of them, man.
Walt Flanagan
Artists. Okay. All right, carry on.
Bryan Johnson
So anyway, so we're having a great time.
Brian Quinn
Do you don't think Jimmy the hair guy's an artist? You don't see him as an artist.
Walt Flanagan
What's his art?
Brian Quinn
What would you category is that art as?
Walt Flanagan
What is the fall?
Bryan Johnson
He could be a moma.
Brian Quinn
Just being him, baby. Being a lovely human.
Walt Flanagan
Okay.
Bryan Johnson
So that night, we're out on the boat.
Walt Flanagan
Everybody's an artist. Nobody's an artist.
Brian Quinn
People on that boat were all artists.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, I agree with that. And I'm going to the bathroom. You know, I go down to the bathroom, and I'm leaning over, and then all of a sudden, I see drips. Drip, drip. The blood starts dripping again and, like, flowing. So I have to get another fucking rag and put it to my nose. By the time we get back to shore, it's pretty good. I'm not too bad. But the next night was Friday. Now I wake up with a little bit of blood, but not bad. Pretty decent.
Walt Flanagan
Feeling the whole day depleted, too, because.
Bryan Johnson
No, not really. It wasn't that much that I lost, you know, like, Because I guess they said if you lose it in cups, that's when you have to worry. But it wasn't. Definitely wasn't Cups. So that night, we're doing the show, and all of a sudden I hear. And the collective gasp of everyone who's like, what's going on here? And I look down, and there's just blood pouring out of my nose, dripping all over.
Walt Flanagan
People didn't think it was part of the gag. Like, it was like a.
Bryan Johnson
No, I Don't think so.
Brian Quinn
Didn't look like part of a gang.
Bryan Johnson
No. So it's dripping down, and I do the same thing. I hold the rag to my nose and, like, I can feel this fucking blood clot flowing or, like, in my throat. And I'm just like. I have, luckily, somebody, for whatever reason, put one of those plastic red party cups, the solo cups, out, I guess, to pour water in or something, and I just, like, put it very close to my mouth and just, like, hocked it up into this cup.
Brian Quinn
That's crazy.
Bryan Johnson
And then put the paper towel over it. And so when we get back to the house, Mary Beth calls her dad, and he's like, what should he do? Like, what's going on here? And he's like, oh, this is pretty normal. That's what Dr. D said, too. It's like, it's not, like, crazy to have bloody noses like this, but when I say I'm not even measuring it in decades, I'm measuring it in scores. That I haven't had a bloody nose.
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Like 40 years, probably. I haven't had a bloody nose now.
Walt Flanagan
Do you. Did you have any bloody noses since leaving?
Bryan Johnson
No.
Walt Flanagan
Do you think maybe it was anxiety?
Bryan Johnson
I think it could have been. I went off my blood pressure medication. I ran out of it, and I didn't have time to refill it, so I was off of it for, like, five days. And when I looked it up, it said that could have been a reason.
Brian Quinn
Like, high blood pressure.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, yeah. That was the only thing I could point to. But then I heard that, because I just ran out and I didn't get it refilled, and I was like, I don't know. I think I'm probably doing pretty good. Turns out, probably not.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, I mean, handled it amazingly. He didn't miss a beat.
Walt Flanagan
No, no.
Brian Quinn
He just put the thing up to his nose.
Bryan Johnson
I don't talk like this through the. Through the rest of the show.
Brian Quinn
Yeah. It was impressive. And you're talking to a guy who had a stroke on stage. That's when I had the stroke. I was on stage in Baltimore, so I know how hard it is. Like, my whole eye went dark and I got a massive pounding headache. I walked to the side stage. I threw up into a garbage pail behind one of the curtains. 10 minutes left in the show, went back in and finished it. So I know that's a trooper. Yeah. But I was looking at you like, this guy gets it. Show must go on. Must go on.
Bryan Johnson
Her dad, that night, told me, the night of the Show. He was just like, whatever you do, don't cough up these blood clots. Let them stay in because they have to clot the blood for, like, weeks. And I was like, all right. I don't know how that's going to be possible, but all right. Later on that night, same thing just coughed it up. And then after that, nothing.
Brian Quinn
Smooth sailing.
Bryan Johnson
Smooth sailing after that so far.
Walt Flanagan
Are you back on the medicine?
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, yeah. When I was down there, a certain doctor prescribed it for me. A certain savior.
Walt Flanagan
Dr. Feelgood.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, I wish they did provide me the heart meds. That was it. I could have used a couple party
Brian Quinn
drugs down there, so that is impressive, dude. Ming Chen.
Bryan Johnson
Ming Chen killed him.
Brian Quinn
A veteran. A veteran in running for MVP status. He, he, he. Anything he needed to do, he did with gusto and enthusiasm. Chuck was there running around, being friends like. It was just like TSD was well represented and everybody was on their greatest behavior.
Gideon Get Him
Frank 5.
Brian Quinn
Frank 5. Oh, Frank 5 was there. Johnny Law was down there. You haven't lived till you've gone to a strip club with Johnny Law and seen him so incoherent he could bar. It was great.
Bryan Johnson
I talked to Frank Five. He had a great time.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, Mrs. Five had a great time.
Bryan Johnson
Had a great time. Yeah. We were out there Saturday night. I was shocked to see that it was like 1:30 in the morning and Frank and Ms. 5 were out there outside Irish Kevin partying.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Having a great time.
Brian Quinn
We did. And Walt, you know, with your cameo, everybody who wasn't there. Walt did indeed dial in.
Bryan Johnson
Yep.
Brian Quinn
Did a really funny bit. Got out. Left him wanting more. Yeah, it was perfect.
Bryan Johnson
I felt bad for Walt because I think up until the last second, he's like, what's going on? Like, what am I supposed to do here?
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
And, like, Jiggy's answer was, like, do nothing.
Brian Quinn
Yeah. Just do you.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Be an artist, Walt. Be you.
Bryan Johnson
The artist known as Walt Flanagan. Our initial flight got delayed, though, due to a leaky sink. Yeah, we were on.
Walt Flanagan
On the plane.
Bryan Johnson
A leaky, leaky sink on the actual plane. We're ready to go, then they're okay. We got this leaky sink up front that we're gonna have to deal with. So we gotta get some repairmen in. So these repair guys come and they're ready to fix the sink. And it's the plumber. I've come to fix the sink. Is that from Sesame Street? Do you remember that?
Gideon Get Him
Sounds like a pornho.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, right. It takes a half hour to fix the sink.
Walt Flanagan
If they take off With a leaky sink, Is it something that could take down a plane?
Brian Quinn
No, they end up just shutting off the sink. They never fix the leak. They just shut it off?
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, they shut it off and put a plastic bag over the sink. They're like, don't use this sink. But since we were a half hour fixing the. Trying to fix the sink, we lost our spot in line to take off. So the guy's like, all right, it's going to be like another 45 minutes. And everyone again, like a collective, like, oh, like, you just can't believe it. But decent flight down there. Once we got there, it was raining torrentially, but that lasted about 15, 20 minutes.
Walt Flanagan
And then after that, then God parted the skies.
Bryan Johnson
Part of the skies for Q West.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Rest of the time, beautiful. No problems.
Brian Quinn
It was great.
Walt Flanagan
Awesome.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. So. But you know what? You know, as far as Q's talking, like, everybody's working hard and shit and, like, giving it their all. I texted Walt. I said, there is no harder working guy in showbiz than bq.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
I was like, this motherfucker was everywhere. Anywhere I went. Like, because I went to most of the events, I think the only thing I missed was Doug Benson's show.
Brian Quinn
Oh, you missed a good one.
Bryan Johnson
That's what I heard. I heard that he killed. I heard that he killed. But I was off doing other shit, so I didn't make it. But otherwise, I went to every single thing. And every single thing. I went to Q was there. Yeah, I was glad. Handon.
Walt Flanagan
Kissing babies.
Bryan Johnson
Kissing babies.
Brian Quinn
Still got complaints. Still got people who are like, not enough FaceTime. I was like. I said to her, I was like, I don't think I could physically deliver more FaceTime. I couldn't believe it. I could not believe it. I got two complaints about that.
Walt Flanagan
One.
Brian Quinn
Who's someone that I like? And I was like, all right. I think I spent a lot of time talking them last year, and they just wanted that again. And the other person was like, another person that, like, I spent a half hour talking to. And then they complained the next time I saw him. And I was like, this isn't. This is nuts. I let it get to me for about five minutes, and I was like. Just shook it off. I was like, fuck it. Yeah, well, you know, there's a lot of money to go down there. A lot of money.
Bryan Johnson
It is. Yeah. Like that.
Brian Quinn
Very seriously.
Bryan Johnson
I thought about that when we were down there. I just had to, like, when people are like, yeah, this is how much it costs me to stay here. This is how much I make per hour. Like, when they were like, breaking it down, I was really appreciative that people like, yeah, went out. Went out all out.
Brian Quinn
That's what I'm saying. Knowing that I'm like, I owe it to them to be at everything and to do everything. I think maybe if we do it again, and we probably will, like, maybe I don't need to be in every show.
Bryan Johnson
Right.
Brian Quinn
Not even for workload, because if I'm not on stage, I'm working anyway. But, like, I just think people could do it less of me. Like, I don't know.
Bryan Johnson
You were in a lot of shows.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So. So, but. But yeah, it was, you know, I just felt I owed it to everybody. And I had a. I was having a blast. I was having. It wasn't like, it was hard. It was so much fun.
Bryan Johnson
Q does this thing called Five Stupid Questions and one of the guys. It was funny because, like, you know, one. One girl was a body double for TV shows, I think, right?
Brian Quinn
Yes.
Bryan Johnson
The second person was. I don't remember what the second person did.
Brian Quinn
It was the first thing we did.
Gideon Get Him
I can't remember it.
Brian Quinn
I know we had the guy Frank from the alcohol place. He was good. He turned out to be a really good interview.
Gideon Get Him
Let's be Frank Guy.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, let's be Frank Guy was great.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. But one guy who got the biggest applause at the end of, like, his Five Stupid Questions was a burglar.
Brian Quinn
Yeah. Sam.
Gideon Get Him
Nuclear guy.
Brian Quinn
Sam. Oh, nuclear guy did well too. We had a nuclear. Nuclear scientist on stage that came just by chance.
Walt Flanagan
You just pull them off stage?
Brian Quinn
Well, what I do is I have them submit anonymously just their jobs. And I look at the job and then I call them off stage if I think I have something for them. And we had a nuclear. A nuclear scientist who was just kind of a brilliant dude.
Walt Flanagan
You figured you'd have to be, right?
Brian Quinn
Yeah. You would think.
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
You were shocked by that, right?
Brian Quinn
No, no. He was dealing with a lot of top secret stuff too. He couldn't answer questions. Yeah. He was like, I'm not allowed to talk about that. Yeah. He's like a current nuclear. Working for one of those things. He couldn't say.
Walt Flanagan
Say who he's working for.
Brian Quinn
No, it sounded like the government. He really didn't want to go into, like, locations and stuff.
Walt Flanagan
Is there. Is there a private sector of nuclear or is it only governments?
Brian Quinn
I don't know. Who runs nuclear?
Bryan Johnson
Oh, in the government?
Brian Quinn
Well, power plants. Right.
Walt Flanagan
I heard New Jersey's opening Up a nuclear power plant soon, right? Oh yeah, they're lifting the ban on the.
Bryan Johnson
Because there was one down south, right? There was one, yeah.
Walt Flanagan
But they're going to open more nuclear power plants in New Jersey.
Bryan Johnson
Uh oh, just what we need, more radioactive shit. Are they?
Brian Quinn
Yeah, they're bringing it back online. 10 miles.
Walt Flanagan
What's it, 3 miles?
Bryan Johnson
3 mile island.
Brian Quinn
What's 10 miles?
Bryan Johnson
3 mile island. 10 mile island.
Brian Quinn
I don't know, but what's 10 miles? Something else is 10 miles.
Bryan Johnson
Well, there's 8 mile. The.
Brian Quinn
Oh, that's it.
Walt Flanagan
Is that where Eminem lives after he moved up from eight, got rich, he
Gideon Get Him
moved to 10, put his own nuclear reactor three mile.
Walt Flanagan
Right, that joke. Oh, that was a dad joke.
Bryan Johnson
What did he say?
Walt Flanagan
Sorry, That's a dad joke right there. Eminem moving to 10 miles.
Brian Quinn
Sorry, nobody.
Walt Flanagan
That sound bad?
Brian Quinn
Everybody likes dad jokes
Bryan Johnson
just like they like dad bods.
Brian Quinn
Hey, man, I mean, it didn't seem to be stopping me. And dad Water and dad Water Dad. Those guys are great. I mean, sponsors came down to party. It was just great. It was just great.
Bryan Johnson
The Juicy Toots people were so nice.
Brian Quinn
I cannot. But I love them.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, they're so nice.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah. What do they sell?
Brian Quinn
Vodka. But. And it's called Juicy. Well, it's for. Part of it is charity for breast cancer and stuff. So yeah, okay. Yeah, great people. I just. It was just. It was just awesome.
Bryan Johnson
There was a naming. Walt. I made an executive decision for. Tell them Steve Dave. I know you don't really like that kind of thing, but. Depends, Devin. I think you're gonna like this. Devin who? The little Devin. Remember her? She was a Tell him Steve Dave ambassador for quite a while. She lived and breathed tellem Steve Dave.
Walt Flanagan
She stopped though, at some point.
Bryan Johnson
I think she kind of stopped. Yeah. I haven't heard from her in a long time. Haven't seen her in a long time. She was the.
Walt Flanagan
Just like her executive. This isn't what. She's never allowed back since she stopped once.
Bryan Johnson
She's allowed back but she's been stripped of her title.
Brian Quinn
That's the only thing.
Bryan Johnson
But we named a new Tell him Steve Dave Ambassador. Somebody who exemplifies and lives and breathes. Tell him Steve Dave. And it was Justin Kyle.
Walt Flanagan
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bryan Johnson
I thought you would agree with that guy's hardcore. Yeah, yeah, because we figured it couldn't be Curator because he already has a title and we wanted to get some new blood in there. Right. Curator's getting old.
Brian Quinn
Curator.
Walt Flanagan
You're looking to replace the Curator Well, I mean, he did fumble the ball on the tesdes, though. He sent me a text apologizing, but basically admitting he was like, yeah, I didn't feel like taking it on. Now that. Now that admission of not. Of not having the energy to take on the testes.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
That didn't even influence your decision to, like, look for his eventual replacement?
Bryan Johnson
No.
Brian Quinn
Curious.
Walt Flanagan
Nice job.
Brian Quinn
His brains might be cooked. He wears black, long sleeves and long pants. It doesn't matter if it's 90 degrees in the baking sun. He's just there in a black denim outfit.
Walt Flanagan
What's wrong with that?
Brian Quinn
You're indoors in air conditioning, not in the Key West. Poolside. I'm not kidding at all. Great kid, though.
Walt Flanagan
Oh, wow. So how much younger is Justin and the curator? Aren't they?
Bryan Johnson
I think they're probably around the same age. Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Sleep with one eye open.
Brian Quinn
Curator, curator.
Bryan Johnson
Amazing outfit.
Walt Flanagan
I saw.
Brian Quinn
I knew about it before you updated
Walt Flanagan
for months on it. It is next level.
Bryan Johnson
It really is. He was wearing it around. We're like, holy. It was like the Barons and then the space bunny.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Costume that, like, he could get into cosplaying if you wanted to.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, but. But they all had that enthusiasm down there. It was just. It was great. And then somebody actually came up. So Jonna, who's a writer on Jokers, and Joe Berger were down there. They did a show that was extremely well received, and Johnna brought her husband Matt, who doesn't listen to Thomas today, doesn't know it, and he had a great idea that I wanted to bring to the table. Well, he said something, and that. That sparked a great idea. The great idea is from yours. Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
I don't want to give Matt the
Brian Quinn
credit for it, but he is involved, and he was like, I. I can't. He's like, it was so much fun. The space monkey show. He's like, I want to start listening to. Tell him, Steve, Dave. He goes. But it's so intimidating. So I thought, like, because he's a funny guy, he's a personable guy, I thought I reached out to him because of the numbers.
Walt Flanagan
The numbers so high.
Brian Quinn
He's, like, in the lore. So I thought if we. I'm gonna get Matt in studio and he could ask us all the questions after May 9th. Right. This looks clean enough for Matt. This is good for Matt and John.
Walt Flanagan
You're not good enough for Elizabeth Shue
Bryan Johnson
or whatever her name was.
Walt Flanagan
What's the girl's name?
Gideon Get Him
They say,
Bryan Johnson
great actor. He brought her in. That'd be awesome, too.
Brian Quinn
Good enough for Matt and John. Great. You know, and I figured we'd get him in here and he could ask us the questions that would help him break through to understanding. Tell him, Steve, Dave.
Bryan Johnson
Like a primer.
Brian Quinn
Like a primer. And this way we don't have to do any work. All he's got to do is ask the questions, and we can. We can answer.
Walt Flanagan
Okay.
Brian Quinn
Yeah. Okay.
Walt Flanagan
Tell me to date.
Brian Quinn
I will.
Walt Flanagan
Let me. Let me. Give me time to get our new rug in now.
Brian Quinn
Okay. Yeah. All right. All right. After the new rug and we get Matt and John in here, and that could be like. Because we always say about doing episode zero, like, that could be the episode that we point people to and be like, hey, this is the primer on the show.
Walt Flanagan
And who. Who's he involved with? Matt.
Brian Quinn
He's married to John, One of my writers on Practical Joker. She's been with us forever. She's.
Bryan Johnson
She's talented.
Brian Quinn
She's so funny.
Bryan Johnson
Holy.
Gideon Get Him
The comedy show they did was just.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
A lot of people told me it was their favorite.
Bryan Johnson
She was really good in it. I mean, she was really good with the Sherman. The scumbag stuff.
Brian Quinn
She's great.
Bryan Johnson
She was like. Yeah, she was really good. You could tell the people who are well versed in improv versus people like me who are not well versed in the problem.
Brian Quinn
Great. Yeah. Her and Ambergio just slammed.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Love those guys.
Bryan Johnson
How was your week, Walt? Your solo?
Walt Flanagan
Very quiet.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah?
Walt Flanagan
Yeah. Did you come here one day? I came here one day. Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Put up that curtain.
Walt Flanagan
No, I didn't put up the curtain. Wife needed to clean the house, so she's like, take the dog somewhere.
Bryan Johnson
Get out.
Walt Flanagan
There was nowhere else to go, but it was quiet hot. But the air conditioner just came on on May 15th.
Brian Quinn
No, April 15th.
Gideon Get Him
April 15th.
Brian Quinn
It's like 49 degrees out, and it's cold in here. And now they can't.
Walt Flanagan
It was.
Gideon Get Him
It was 84 degrees over here now.
Brian Quinn
Jesus.
Gideon Get Him
Because the metal of the cabinet messes
Walt Flanagan
with the temperature, I guess the. Is. You can't have the AC on until April 15th.
Brian Quinn
Okay.
Walt Flanagan
Now post the 15th. You know, that's blasting chilly.
Brian Quinn
That's how I like it.
Walt Flanagan
Probably till about October, I would imagine.
Gideon Get Him
And the lady who runs the Plaza is on vacation. So, like, I left a message and no response. So luckily, Ron1 got me in touch with the maintenance guy.
Brian Quinn
You're on a winning streak. Get him.
Bryan Johnson
We had a. After the. The. The catamaran. Yeah. On. On Sunday, we went to a restaurant, which I won't Name because I'm not going to talk very highly about it.
Brian Quinn
And it's normally a fun restaurant.
Bryan Johnson
I've heard this is normally a fun restaurant. Jiggy's like, this is one of my favorite places on all of us.
Brian Quinn
It's a very Key west, sprawling dive bar type thing.
Bryan Johnson
So let's go there.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
And we're like, all right, let's go there. So we got there, we had quite a few people. I mean, I would say like 20. Yeah, it probably like a 20 person party. And we get to. There you go. When we get there, the. The waiter.
Brian Quinn
This is the downside of. Of Key West. The waiter service needs help.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, no, it's one.
Brian Quinn
Nobody's down there.
Walt Flanagan
Too many people.
Brian Quinn
Nobody's had a work. No, it's Key West. Nobody's gonna work. Like everybody sounds like. And I ran about as well too, this one.
Bryan Johnson
So he goes. The waiter prefaces it. He looks pretty messed up. He's like. He's gimping around and shit. And he's like, just so you know, I gotta hurt legs, so tell me everything you want at once so you don't have me running back and forth. And he didn't say it in a way that was like, hey, man, can you help me out? He said it in a way of like, hey, you owe me this.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Hey, dickheads. Yeah, thanks for coming in while my legs hurt. Yeah, that type.
Bryan Johnson
So a couple things happened and he looked like.
Brian Quinn
He was like.
Bryan Johnson
He looked like a crackhead.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, on that spectrum. For sure.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, for sure.
Walt Flanagan
Is that abnormal in Key West? Does everybody look. Just from the way I hear, it's like a party town. So I thought most people look like crackheads.
Bryan Johnson
They had more drunks than.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, it was surprising that this guy had a drunk.
Walt Flanagan
You know, there's a difference between a crackhead and a drunk.
Brian Quinn
Sure, sure.
Walt Flanagan
Different look.
Bryan Johnson
I think so. Yeah. Crackhead's like wild eyed. Where a drunk is more like sedate.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, the drunk's having fun. A crackhead's just.
Bryan Johnson
Crackhead's looking for more crack.
Gideon Get Him
What got me was he was wearing the, like a shirt that they sell there and it had holes in it. So like, you know, like when we used to work at the Stash, we would just take a shirt off the. The rack and wear it as our employee shirt. And he still had like holes in his shirt and stuff, which was. Yeah, it was weird.
Bryan Johnson
So he announces that in the beginning. So immediately you're like, all right, the service is going to be slow. But how slow? We could have never dreamed. And I'm like, who's the fucking manager who puts this guy in charge of, like, a table this size? And then, like, we finally. We begged another lady. This other lady, we're like, can you please just help him? Like, just give him a hand. And eventually, she just turned into the waitress. He never came back.
Gideon Get Him
Well, she was like, I can't do it, but I can tell him what you need.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, she can tell him what. But we were like, he's never gonna bring it here. So eventually, like, I mean, the drinks came slowly. The food came even more slowly. But, like, at one point, Q's like, I have to go and do something real fast. I'll be back.
Brian Quinn
And we had a drunk attendee at the meal that I had to get back to the hotel to nap. Yeah, I was full service, Walt.
Bryan Johnson
I was Uber.
Brian Quinn
I was everything.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. When I tell you this guy was all over the place. Place. He was all over the place. So he drops this person off, comes back, the food still isn't there, which was 20 to 25 minutes later. And. But during that time, they did bring out one meal. It was a. It was a cheese stick with fries on the side. And we thought it was Q's, because she put it down right in front of the plate. Well, it was. It wasn't yours.
Brian Quinn
Well, two people on a cheesesteaks, I
Bryan Johnson
guess three people did, because what happened was she puts the cheesesteak down, and me and Derosa are like, fuck it. Q's not here. We're gonna have some of his fries. So he started eating his fries. And then the lady goes, ooh, Ooh, my mistake. That's not yours. That goes to somebody else at a different table. We thought somebody else at the table. It was somebody else at a different table. And she brought it and gave it to him.
Walt Flanagan
She wouldn't take it back.
Bryan Johnson
She did. She gave. We watched her give it to him. Oh, my God.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah, that's not good.
Brian Quinn
No.
Bryan Johnson
So that's pretty much that exemplifies how the night went. Q eventually got back. We eventually all ate, but on our way out, there's a guy now there's only one walkway out. And I would say it's about as wide as, like, your average driveway, maybe a hair wider. And there's a guy pressure washing chairs. Oh, that guy. Yeah. And the fucking mist is going all over the place. The water's going all over the place.
Brian Quinn
He's not stopping for me.
Bryan Johnson
To the point where Q goes. Q just goes, can you stop?
Brian Quinn
Yeah. I was like, dude,
Gideon Get Him
Jimmy and Michelle showed up after we were seated, ordered their food, got their food, ate before this table's food showed up.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Although I gotta say, like, Marybeth in regards to Giddum was like, what's wrong with this guy? Where, like, Giddum was supposed to get a beer. And, like, the waitress comes by, she's like, hey, is there anything anybody needs? And nobody says anything like, no, we're all good. She walks away. And Gidham's like, well, I could use that beer I ordered 20 minutes ago. It's like, why the fuck didn't you ask her that?
Gideon Get Him
Then the guy brought me a Coors.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, I got you a Coors.
Gideon Get Him
And then he brought me three more beers after that. He's like, I opened this one. Nobody. Nobody can drink it here. I was like, well, that's really.
Brian Quinn
You got a free one.
Gideon Get Him
Yeah, but I'm trying to pound them back because you can't walk around with alcohol.
Bryan Johnson
Let's put it this way. Every beer he drank was free.
Brian Quinn
You can walk around alcohol.
Gideon Get Him
It's not. It was a signs
Brian Quinn
rookie. Throw that shit in a plastic cup and walk around. That song was probably put there as a joke.
Bryan Johnson
All right, what do we got here? Let's see.
Brian Quinn
And then we started shooting season 13 this week. Dude, it's been so much. I carry that.
Walt Flanagan
You're on a roll.
Brian Quinn
I'm on a happy roll. It's WrestleMania weekend. I feel like a dog they're gonna put down at the end of this week.
Bryan Johnson
Ever.
Brian Quinn
It's so much fun making the show again. I forgot. I think what you need to do. You know what I mean? To forget.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Yeah. I got to.
Walt Flanagan
You need to have it be taken away for a little while.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Then you realize how much you really miss it.
Brian Quinn
I loved it.
Bryan Johnson
It wasn't that way this week with Gidem.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, sure.
Bryan Johnson
Guys, bluechew has just become inclusive. Oh, guys, if you're a lady or your fella or that person that said you would eggplant emoji at 2am in
Walt Flanagan
the gay community, this would be fucking blue gold.
Bryan Johnson
Why not, right?
Brian Quinn
Oh, I don't know why, but I. I never considered the fact that gay men would have trouble getting hard.
Bryan Johnson
Sure.
Walt Flanagan
Because it's so sexy.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
I just saw, like. I just thought they'd be, like, so happy to be banging another dude that they're just ready to go. I don't know why. I mean, in a good way. I don't mean it like a bad way. I'm like. It just seems like that lifestyle.
Walt Flanagan
You don't have the same issues medically that a heterosexual guy would have.
Brian Quinn
Not when it comes to hearts, to boners. I just thought that they would always. They would be like the land of Oz Q.
Walt Flanagan
You know, It's. They put their pants on the same way you do.
Brian Quinn
I know, but they're not. They're not dealing with women. You know what I mean? Like, it's all fun.
Walt Flanagan
They're just assless pants. Yeah, that's a dad joke too.
Bryan Johnson
That's a good one. That's a good one.
Brian Quinn
You're an artist.
Bryan Johnson
You would have been on that boat, Walt.
Walt Flanagan
All right.
Brian Quinn
I guess I never thought of it that way.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. Sure enough. Or that person that sends you an eggplant emoji at 2am is ready for better sex than you should be too. 2:00am I mean, that's what we were.
Brian Quinn
This one's not even on.
Bryan Johnson
I know. When we were doing the shows, I was like. Like, as we start, I'm like, I would be in bed at this point. That's when Bluechew comes in. They've been on a mission for years to get you bricked up, build your confidence, and help you actually perform in the bedroom. Their new arousal boosting performance formula, Blue Chew Gold, is helping millions of men have better sex. In 2026, when most ED meds only focus on blood flow, Blue Chew Gold goes further by combining two ingredients with blood flow, by combining two ingredients for blood flow with two ingredients for mental arousal and connection. So you're not just physically ready, you're actually in the mood.
Walt Flanagan
How does that work?
Bryan Johnson
I don't know. Like, it affects your brain chemicals. Yeah, I haven't heard that claim before.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, they said a while ago they were doing that.
Walt Flanagan
Isn't that a roofie?
Brian Quinn
The gold one, right? I mean, sign me up. Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Evidently, this type of innovation is why Blue True Gold is the number one brand in erectile function. It's time for less talking, more rocking, less hanging, more banging, less thinking, more dinking. Seriously, who wrote this? It's simple. Chew it and do it. That's my question. Yeah. Don't let your mind get in the way of a good time. Level up with Blue Chew Gold and less is more. So how about more is more? More blood flow, more arousal and more performance. Don't let your mind get in the way of a good time. Discover your options@bluetooth.com and here's a special deal for listeners right now. When you buy two months of BlueChew Gold, you get the third for free with promo code TESD. That's promo code te-visit bluechew.com for more details and important safety information. And we thank BlueChew for sponsoring the podcast.
Brian Quinn
Booyah.
Bryan Johnson
Now we got Factor. I got to use my phone for this one, too, because sent me all the stuff that she likes, but I can't read the both at the same time. All right, Factor Hunger strikes and you're exhausted. Then there's something healthy in your fridge pantry you should be making, but you don't have it in you until you realize that you found Factor.

Walt Flanagan
Do you think, I guess enough time has passed since.
Bryan Johnson
Since you, Bill O'Reilly called Blue Chill roofy, but that.
Walt Flanagan
Since Bill O'Reilly got canned from the Factor that you can call a product the Factor and not think of Bill O'Reilly because I'm sure nobody here did, but.
Bryan Johnson
Oh, no, I did. Yeah, I did it.
Brian Quinn
The O'Reilly Factor.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Totally forgot about that connection.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
But, yeah, no spin zone. Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
But I wonder. I guess enough time has passed that they're like a company is like, we can call ourselves the Factor and not be associated with that guy.
Bryan Johnson
I think so. Yeah. I think enough time. Yeah. So he writes books now. Like, wrote a book about the Salem
Brian Quinn
witch trial, something, I guess.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
I see a lot of, like, speculation. Like, people are just like, you know, wall's a closet maga.
Bryan Johnson
I feel you.
Walt Flanagan
And I was like, they don't know
Brian Quinn
how wrong you are.
Walt Flanagan
They are.
Brian Quinn
You have to care to be MAGA at least. the very least, you have to care about it.
Walt Flanagan
And the only reason I liked or I, I watched the show was because I liked the guy who, like, there was a murder in California of this little girl and the lawyers representing the killer were trying to come up with, like, sweeten the deal for him.
Bryan Johnson
Right.
Walt Flanagan
And they were going to reveal the location of the body of the little girl.
Bryan Johnson
Was it polyclass? No, not her.
Walt Flanagan
It was after that.
Bryan Johnson
Okay.
Walt Flanagan
And in between them negotiating for a lighter sentence, they found the body so that they took that off the. They took that off the table. Those same lawyers stayed on the case, though, and defended that guy, even though they knew they were going to review where the body was, thus making it they knew who the killer was.
Brian Quinn
Right?
Walt Flanagan
And they fucking went after the girl's mother and said that her lifestyle was the reason that her daughter was dead.
Bryan Johnson
Oh, were they swingers or something?
Walt Flanagan
I don't remember. Maybe she wasn't.
Bryan Johnson
It was in California. I vaguely remember that.
Walt Flanagan
And O'Reilly was so pissed off it like it fucking mirrored my fucking outrage that these two scumbag lawyers, how could they live with themselves? They knew the fucking guy was a murderer. And he vowed that was the very first show I ever saw of his. And he vowed that he was going to take down these lawyers because of how they could do this as human beings.
Bryan Johnson
Right?
Walt Flanagan
That's how he kind of won me over. But then it became more about, like it was way more or less about the, like taking down fucking shitty lawyers and more about fucking politics and shit. And eventually I just stopped watching. But that was my. When TSD first started, I said I liked O'Reilly Factor and People, what are we doing here? What ad we doing? Not the Bill O'Reilly one.
Brian Quinn
It's a good one.
Walt Flanagan
Tasty food that keeps you healthy.
Bryan Johnson
Exactly. Food that is fresh, Never frozen. Over 100 rotating weekly meals including globally inspired flavors like Mediterranean and Asian. So there's always something new to look forward to. Tried a newly launched ready to eat salads with vibrant ingredients like elote corn and miso edamame.
Brian Quinn
Miso horny miso.
Bryan Johnson
Honey. Edamame.
Brian Quinn
I don't co sign this accent. I just want to say. I want to say that's a factor.
Walt Flanagan
What was the name of that food? Miso what?
Bryan Johnson
Miso edamame.
Walt Flanagan
What is that?
Bryan Johnson
It's like soybeans.
Walt Flanagan
Oh, okay. A miso horny. For a fact.
Brian Quinn
There's kind of.
Bryan Johnson
I don't think they're going to use that.
Brian Quinn
I mean, it's right there.
Walt Flanagan
It's not good.
Brian Quinn
I can't explain why we went 20, 26. I think it's actually. Okay, now we're back, baby. I think we went through 10 years of hell. Finger wagon. No. Moral superior. Oh, there I go using that word again.
Bryan Johnson
There you go.
Brian Quinn
Sorry factor. All right, we gotta bleep that in the factor. Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Sorry factor.
Walt Flanagan
Don't take it out.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, don't take it out. I want the finger wagons to know
Bryan Johnson
they lost, but our BLEEP is a chicken, so plus 78.
Walt Flanagan
Just leave the hard C in there before you beat. There's no gray area what was said.
Bryan Johnson
People know. You didn't say it, but people know. Plus 70 plus add ons to round out your nutrition from green juices to peanut butter energy bites. I bet you Gidem would like that.
Walt Flanagan
Is that like peanut butter chicken? I hope it's probably just as tasty.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. Peanut butter bites ready in two meals. Factory shops, preps, cooks and delivers straight to your door. So you have time for everything you love this spring. And this is what Mary Beth put a put on. Pesto chicken and quinoa chimichurri, filet mignon, Thai curry shrimp and rice. That's what she had listed as shit that she likes. And by shit, I mean the awesome factor. Food.

Walt Flanagan
Now, Gidem has a picture of the three barons and the curator as a space monkey. Gidem, you should wear gold all the time. You look so much thinner.
Gideon Get Him
That is not.
Bryan Johnson
That is not him.
Walt Flanagan
That is not you.
Gideon Get Him
That's one of the wannabes.
Walt Flanagan
Oh, okay. You know, I didn't have my glasses on.
Bryan Johnson
Still looks like him. I do. And it still looks like him. You're right.
Walt Flanagan
It really does look like him, though. Okay.
Bryan Johnson
Somewhere Nick's like, I look like a skinny kiddo. Oh, good Lord, somebody saved me.
Walt Flanagan
Well, yeah, I guess nobody's happy with that comment, huh?
Brian Quinn
Yeah, the costumes guy.
Walt Flanagan
Who's the Baron, though? That could. It looks like me without my glasses on.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, those. Those costumes are spot on, these guys. And that's the thing. Everybody who came came to party. All of the attendees, the guests.
Bryan Johnson
You like the pirate night? I wasn't even aware of it. And people are running around looking like pirates. I'm like, what is this?
Brian Quinn
I mean, there was. There wasn't a single dud in the bunch. Everybody was just there for a good time. It was great.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. And I don't. I don't know. Like, I know that it's easy for people. I mean, not easy.
Walt Flanagan
I could have went and been the dud.
Brian Quinn
You could have been the dud.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Yeah. You could have been the dude. We need one.
Bryan Johnson
I know it's not nearly as good
Walt Flanagan
once I get there. You put an E after that dud.
Brian Quinn
Dude.
Bryan Johnson
Dude.
Brian Quinn
There we go. Yeah. You know Everybody's super polite. Well, you would have been comfortable. Like, it's like. You would have been great.
Walt Flanagan
I know.
Brian Quinn
That's all right. My boy Eli was there.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
I didn't get to spend as much time with him as I wanted.
Walt Flanagan
But you didn't smoke.
Brian Quinn
No. And I. Once again, I promised him. I promised him he would. I would. And I just. I was just too busy and somebody. Oh, I finished. I've. Somebody asked me to make a video for them.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
For someone that was sick or something. And I promised them I would. And then I just lost track of them. So I don't remember
Walt Flanagan
suffice.
Brian Quinn
No, it just. I didn't forget. I still want to make that video. Video for you. I just didn't.
Walt Flanagan
Just don't know who it was. Where to send it now.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, they should have had their info at the ready. Like, here it is.
Brian Quinn
I mean, it's tough to ask me to do stuff like that in the middle of a crowd of a hundred people, but, you know, it's like, it is what it is. But I did tell him I would do it and I want to do it.
Bryan Johnson
So. Yeah, I mean, people were already. Many people were already talking about QS3. And I would tell him I would like, look, I don't think you know how much work Q puts into this.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Like, forget seeing you.
Walt Flanagan
So it might not happen.
Brian Quinn
No, I don't want to think about it for a little bit.
Walt Flanagan
If it might not happen, I could promise that me and Sunday Jeff will be there. And if me and Sunday Jeff are at Key west, the fucking poles will fucking shift.
Brian Quinn
Yes, I agree with that.
Walt Flanagan
The North Pole will become the South Pole.
Brian Quinn
Crack. It'll come out of the ocean, ravage across the islands.
Gideon Get Him
I think Jeff would do welter.
Brian Quinn
He would be great. He'd be worshiped.
Bryan Johnson
Oh, yeah. People would love him.
Brian Quinn
Oh, without a doubt. Do you think he wouldn't go because we never asked him.
Walt Flanagan
Never asked him. I think if given enough lead time.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, yeah.
Walt Flanagan
He probably could make the
Gideon Get Him
promising. Jeff Dunham will be there.
Bryan Johnson
He'll show.
Brian Quinn
You have to get him a private plane down. Yeah. Do we finish factor?
Bryan Johnson
We finish factor. We have one more. I don't know if we want to do it now. We want to talk a little while. Yeah, Just knock it out. Okay. This message is sponsored by Raycon.
Gideon Get Him
Raycons. Love my Raycons.
Bryan Johnson
Everybody does. Get them. Please personalize with details about your own mom or other moms in your life. Okay.
Walt Flanagan
Oh, this is Mother's Day.
Bryan Johnson
This is Mother's Day. Yeah. With Mother's Day coming up, it's a great time to find that gift that actually fits into your mom's everyday life. My mom is 80. I don't know that she has. Her everyday life includes like listening to headphones. But if I had a young mom, younger than me even.
Gideon Get Him
So Pam doesn't listen to Josh Groban through her Raycon.
Bryan Johnson
She doesn't. She puts it on speaker and tortures Edgar.
Gideon Get Him
Well, maybe for Mother's Day this year you can get her a gift and Edgar a gift.
Bryan Johnson
That's true. Yeah, I hadn't thought of that.
Walt Flanagan
Do you think it's like earbuds are too advanced for an 80 year old? They just take them out of a case and put them in your ear.
Brian Quinn
I imagine it's losing them.
Gideon Get Him
That would be the issue with the new over the ear ones. It'd be really easy.
Walt Flanagan
Can't you get a lanyard for her for your like, keep em on the wall?
Bryan Johnson
I guess I could. Yeah. Like here, mom, now you're gonna wear this from now on.
Brian Quinn
This is your lot.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. With Mother's Day coming up, it's a great time to find that gift that actually fits into your mom's everyday life. Whether she's going for a walk, she doesn't. Running errands, she doesn't. Commuting, she doesn't. Or taking a quick phone call that she does. She sits there and complains about the telemarketers constantly.
Brian Quinn
Nice.
Bryan Johnson
I'm like, just don't pick up the fucking phone then.
Gideon Get Him
It's so much fun though, when you answer the phone.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. Oh, hold on.
Brian Quinn
It's gone.
Gideon Get Him
Actually, I keep my Raycons on a lanyard.
Brian Quinn
Yeah. There you go people.
Bryan Johnson
80 year old woman. Let's see. They've become a go to for everyday listening with active noise cancellation. They help block out background noises so she can stay focused on what she's listening to. Whether that's music, a podcast or a call. Everything sounds clear and immersive, which makes it easier to stay present. Enjoy those small moments throughout the day.

They got active noise cancellation multi point connectivity so you can pair with the two devices at once. And super comfortable ergonomic design that stays put no matter what you're doing, the new colors are awesome.
Gideon Get Him
I like the two devices because then I have it paired to two of my phones. Yeah, it doesn't matter which phone I'm using.
Bryan Johnson
You're waiting till they compare with eight
Brian Quinn
things at the same time, right?
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Perfect.
Brian Quinn
Bluetooth 20 will do that.
Bryan Johnson
Right. Here's the kicker. Raycon delivers the same premium audio quality as the big brands, but had half the price and over 3 million happy customers and 30 day happiness guarantee say so there's no reason to overpay. Get them. You use your Raycons just about every day, especially when you go to that. Yes.
Gideon Get Him
The one thing I noticed, Key west didn't have Chinese buffet and all. You can eat Chinese buffet.
Bryan Johnson
They used to. I remember. Yeah, there was one right on Duval Street.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Years and years ago.
Brian Quinn
There is a Chinese restaurant.
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Just not a buffet.
Brian Quinn
But I mean, you can just order multiple plates.
Bryan Johnson
Let's see.
Brian Quinn
Or not.
Bryan Johnson

Brian Quinn
Q, no, I am not going. I love him, right? You know, Jimmy the hair guy's my guy. You can't. You can't make a bachelor party on WrestleMania weekend. That's my Super Bowl.
Bryan Johnson
That's what you were saying.
Brian Quinn
40 years I've been watching this thing. I can't not do it. And I just spent the weekend with Jimmy. I've never missed WrestleMania.
Walt Flanagan
No, never.
Gideon Get Him
Never.
Walt Flanagan
Going way back to the very first one.
Brian Quinn
Going back to the first one. We used to get together at my aunt's house and. Because you'd have to rent it 40 years ago, so. No, I was like. I was 10, 10, 10. And we used to the whole, you know, you'd rent on one my aunt's TV and all the cousins would go there. So you'd have 25 people watching WrestleMania on this small screen. You know, I love it. And I just took Jimmy on a catamaran. You know, what do I got to do every weekend with Jimmy the hair guy?
Walt Flanagan
Maybe just 2 out of 50 he's
Brian Quinn
having dinner at 10 o' clock at night.
Bryan Johnson
I don't know, man.
Brian Quinn
It sounds like a young man's game, and it's.
Bryan Johnson
It does sound like a young man's game, doesn't it?
Walt Flanagan
These are going to be there.
Bryan Johnson
I like how when. When Rob was texting us, there was a text for the young guys and a text for the old guys.
Brian Quinn
If it wasn't WrestleMania weekend, I'd be there. But you can't take it from. I. I make plans.
Walt Flanagan
They don't DVR that. They don't have it ever. You could watch it on tape delay.
Brian Quinn
No, they can. I'm not doing it.
Walt Flanagan
You can't turn your phone off. So you don't. You're not.
Gideon Get Him
What if it gets spoiled?
Walt Flanagan
No. Well, as I say, turn your phone off. It'll probably be on every TV, though.
Brian Quinn
Yeah. Somebody. It's WrestleMania, man. I don't want to it up. I love it. Dan Housen's there, you know, what are
Bryan Johnson
the days you wouldn't go, Walt, if it was on this day? What, like, Super Bowl? Would it matter?
Walt Flanagan
Like, his wedding is in peril because it's Oliver's first birthday.
Bryan Johnson
Oh, come on.
Walt Flanagan
And we're having a major backyard party at my house that afternoon. So depending on what time it's over, I may take the ride. But I don't know what time he's getting married, though.
Bryan Johnson
No, nor do I.
Walt Flanagan
So, like, I don't know, I might get there. Well, after the I do has been said and what's the point then? Like, does it matter? Then If I, like, 10 minutes, send
Brian Quinn
a card with 100 bucks and I call it a day.
Walt Flanagan
100?
Brian Quinn
No, too little.
Walt Flanagan
That's Jimmy the hair guy. I don't want it.
Bryan Johnson
That's.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, but you're not even going.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah, so what, though?
Brian Quinn
You know?
Walt Flanagan
You know, that's. That's bad. The core to talk about. Yeah.
Brian Quinn
I'll tell you what, though. I'll FaceTime it like you did at QS. I'll do that. I'll do that.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Gideon Get Him
Says it's from 4 to 11.
Walt Flanagan
4 to 11 is the. Is the wedding.
Gideon Get Him
That's what it says. Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Okay. So, I mean, I might get out of there by 6, so I may be able to shoot up. I don't know how long it'll take me to get. We'll see what happens, though. But. Yeah, I can't miss the baby's first birthday party, though.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, that's a big one.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah. So that keeps me away. And I think Super Bowl I would be like, you're having your wedding on Super Bowl.
Brian Quinn
That's how I feel about Wrestlemania. It's the same exact thing. Like, why would you.
Gideon Get Him
I've considered having a wedding on Super Bowl Sunday. Making it the dinner reception. Be a party. Yeah. If I got married.
Walt Flanagan
If you guys. Okay.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, okay.
Gideon Get Him
Like a reception, super bowl party type combo. I thought it'd be cool.
Brian Quinn
I'm surprised you didn't get Office for Marriage after you stepped off stage.
Gideon Get Him
I might have.
Brian Quinn
I really. I thought for sure you were gonna get laid. I was like, there's no way this guy's dick doesn't get wet after this performance.
Gideon Get Him
I'm sure my father would have loved that.
Bryan Johnson
He also did. Don't be disappointed. He did fall, too, a couple times. Yeah, he's all cut up. He's got blood all over him the next day.
Walt Flanagan
I think if the Devils were in the Stanley cup finals, I might be. Also use that as an excuse not to. I can't miss this.
Bryan Johnson
Well, the grandkids first birthday. That's a pretty solid reason.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah. We're having a tent.
Bryan Johnson
Oh, yeah.
Brian Quinn
Nice.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah, we're having, I think one. At least one barnyard animal.
Brian Quinn
Wow.
Bryan Johnson
Little petting zoo going on.
Walt Flanagan
Well, if it's all like, can you call it a zoo if only one animal is there.
Brian Quinn
What is like a. Like a mule?
Walt Flanagan
That's a rabbit.
Bryan Johnson
Oh, a rabbit rabbit.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah. All right.
Gideon Get Him
Just put some ears on, Teddy.
Walt Flanagan
I know. That's what I said.
Brian Quinn
Oh, I had. I had this Boris. I brought Boris, a cat down with me, and in the airport, some lucky listeners got to pet him, and they agreed that his fur feels like a dream. Like a dream of a cloud no lies were told. I was. I was informed.
Bryan Johnson
The other guy, Richard.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
He's. He's. He reminds me of my. My little cat. Like, you pet him four times, then he's like, yeah, leave me alone.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, Yeah. I didn't raise him.
Bryan Johnson
He's.
Brian Quinn
He's. I'm just looking after him.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Gideon Get Him
Boris seems super chill in the carrier.
Walt Flanagan
Super chill has definitely passed over into that. Like, he's been a celebrity too long, where he believes everything everybody tells him. Like, your cat's fur is like heaven.
Bryan Johnson
And they confirmed it.
Brian Quinn
Only because his fur is like heaven. I mean, if they told me he was a white cat, I wouldn't be like, yeah, I agree. Tastes like heaven. It was funny, though, having my cat up in first class and Johnson walking by, and I was like, can we get a mimosa for the cats?
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, it was A riot. Oh, that was good.
Walt Flanagan
Did you fly? Like, did you crawl underneath. Where? The sink. Since you knew there wasn't going to be in you, she could sneak on. And I was not underwear to sink with a broken sink.
Gideon Get Him
I was on a different flight, sadly.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. Yeah, he wasn't on that one. At Jimmy's wedding, there's going to be something called we got this message. Well, it was actually on Facebook, I believe. And this is for the end of the wedding spot, so if you get there in time, you'll be ready for this.
Walt Flanagan
Now, I was gonna. I know everybody's in costume, right? I was gonna go as the baron. You think he'd like that?
Bryan Johnson
I think he'd like. You love it.
Gideon Get Him
Give me smacking the table so hard.
Walt Flanagan
What time's it. What time does it end?
Gideon Get Him
Four to 10.
Walt Flanagan
All right, so I gotta get there by 10. And I. And I asked the baron to. To do something at the end where I think I know what it is with soda or something like that.
Bryan Johnson
Faygo. Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah. Okay.
Bryan Johnson
What is faygo? Armageddon. You would do that, huh?
Walt Flanagan
Yeah. Like, since I was. Since I missed the majority of it, the least I could do is get doused in soda.
Bryan Johnson
Mm. For all non juggalos, it is basically something that happens at the end of Insane Clown Posse shows or at the end of their set at the gathering. They just unload and throw all the faygo at once, causing a shower of faygo, which is a type of soda, all over everyone involved. This is how we'll be ending our celebrations on Saturday. If you'd like to participate, bring a change of clothes or don't go and just. Or don't and just go all in. I hope everyone will find it a great time either to participate or experience it from the sidelines. That sounds like what I'm going to be doing.
Walt Flanagan
Sidelining.
Bryan Johnson
So I'm a sideline when it comes to.
Walt Flanagan
How long could I ask Jimmy to delay the actual nuptials before I'm like, don't do it till I get there?
Brian Quinn
Well, I'm an hour out.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, it depends on how far out you are. I think he would.
Brian Quinn
There is a time that he would.
Bryan Johnson
Oh, there is a time.
Walt Flanagan
If I was like, come on, bro. You know, what time you doing it? Like, probably seven. I'm like, no, no, man, I won't be able to make it seven. Make it nine thirty.
Bryan Johnson
It's Oliver's birthday. There they are. Yeah, there they are, Jimmy.
Brian Quinn
I mean, she's lovely. She's just wonderful. Like, everybody likes Talking to. She's so sweet. It's funny watching because he shows up on the catamaran in orange. Bright orange Insane Clown Posse shorts and to Juggalos and Doug Benson's like, is he really a Juggalo? And I'm like, oh, get over here, Jimmy. And then I look over and Jimmy and Doug Benson are talking for, like an hour. I was like, it's such a great mixture of people on this boat.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. Well, I stayed on the same house as. As Doug Benson, and I. I can say that I met him.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
But briefly. I was like. We passed each other in the hallway going to the bathroom or. Yeah, yeah. Like, I never really got to sit down and talk to him. He was never there. He was always out with his ladies.
Brian Quinn
He's always out. His lady's great. Well, they were on the boats with us. They were on both boats and stuff, but I think they were getting a little bit of vacation in. But when you fucking hit a home run, like, he hit.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, that's what I heard. He really killed.
Brian Quinn
And he even got off stage and it was. This is what I'm saying about the ants, because, like, most of the audience is ants.
Walt Flanagan
Because what would you say the percentage was of ants?
Brian Quinn
I don't know. What do you think, 75.
Bryan Johnson
75?
Brian Quinn
Yeah, I think so, because I don't advertise it. I just, you know. And. And Doug, after stage, he's like, you know, he goes, I was really worried because this isn't my audience. And, you know, there's. It's. There's some insider stuff on the show. He got off stage and he's like, they. He goes, they are warmer to me than my audience is to me, is what he said. And I go, they're the fucking best. They're just the best.
Walt Flanagan
Did he want that out there for public consumption, dissing his own audience? Yeah, okay.
Brian Quinn
I think it's okay.
Walt Flanagan
All right.
Brian Quinn
I mean, it doesn't mean his audience not warm.
Bryan Johnson
Ants were overly warm.
Brian Quinn
Ants were overly warm.
Bryan Johnson
I have to say, like, I mean, every show I went to, every table was taken up the same level of energy, whether it was the first show of the night or the last show of the night, which was us.
Brian Quinn
Which was us.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, but really, like, so into it.
Brian Quinn
So it was great. It was. It was. It was phenomenal. I felt. I felt. I felt the love. There's get him playing some X Men in ball arcade.
Gideon Get Him
That's my father.
Bryan Johnson
How did your dad like it?
Gideon Get Him
He liked it.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Gideon Get Him
Yeah, he had a great time.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Good I mean, people were so excited he was there.
Gideon Get Him
Yeah. The. The second day we got up, we were gonna go to brunch. He's like. I'm like, I'll put the jersey. I said, oh, I don't want to put the jersey on. And then we went to brunch. And he goes, you know, I think I might go back to the house, put my jersey.
Brian Quinn
Really?
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Oh, great.
Bryan Johnson
Oh, cool.
Brian Quinn
And people were excited that he was there. They'll get him Daddy's. Yeah. I was like, yeah, that's it.
Walt Flanagan
Anybody ask him what your real name was?
Gideon Get Him
No, I don't think so.
Brian Quinn
His real name is Get Him. It's like Bruce. Bruce Wayne and Batman. You know what I'm saying?
Bryan Johnson
Well, when get him was when Gideon was doing something. Your dad started Googling you up in the. Right. What's my son up to?
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
So he Googles, like, get him, Steve Dave. And he starts finding Reddit threads.
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Which I have to say is impressive for an older guy, like, to be able to, like, hunt you down a little bit.
Gideon Get Him
Well, get him and.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, I guess. Get him. Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Did he have questions about what he saw?
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah. Like what?
Gideon Get Him
Just.
Bryan Johnson
You're married.
Gideon Get Him
It's like, why are all these people angry at you?
Bryan Johnson
That's a long story, dad, because you
Walt Flanagan
can't shut your fucking mouth.
Gideon Get Him
He knows that.
Brian Quinn
I said to him one point, I go, everybody loves seeing you here. They all want to know where Gary him came from. And he goes. He goes, a lot of parent teacher meetings with that kid. He goes, yeah, there he is singing. Yeah. I will say to anybody listening, the one note I have for the audience is, it's not group participation. There were some people who were really screaming over some of the comedians and stuff.
Bryan Johnson
Oh, yeah?
Brian Quinn
Yeah. One or two people were, like, just
Bryan Johnson
a little too, like, involved with the comedian.
Brian Quinn
Yeah. Like talking to them while they're in the middle of their eyes.
Walt Flanagan
It had to be the 25 who weren't ants.
Brian Quinn
No, I wish it was. It was. I had to take ownership. I'm like, ah, they're excited. They're. You know, they feel it.
Walt Flanagan
Part of was curator. He was belligerent because he heard he was being replaced.
Brian Quinn
Who's this kid? Justin Kyle.
Bryan Johnson
I only had one news story this week, Walt. I thought you might be interested in this. In case you're not already aware of it. String of missing or dead scientists. Too coincidental not to be of a major concern. Congressman says as 11th mystery emerges, scientists are going disappearing. Scientists 11 the deaths or disappearances of 11 top US scientists and researchers is a matter of national.
Brian Quinn
That's a shocking number.
Bryan Johnson
That's a pretty high number, isn't it?
Brian Quinn
Yeah. 11.
Bryan Johnson
11.
Brian Quinn
And how did they. They just disappeared. Or they died suspiciously.
Bryan Johnson
Died suspiciously or just disappeared. The lawmaker argued the fate of the scientists is almost certainly linked to the access some had to classified aerospace, defense and UFO information. Or may involve bad factories from China, Russia or Iran.
Brian Quinn
Yes. So did our own government silence them or did foreign actors get a hold on them?
Bryan Johnson
Some of the scientists literally just disappeared without a trace, including air Force Major General William Neil McCaslin, who vanished in February after he tried to. After Burlingson said he tried to contact him twice about his research into unidentified anomalous phenomenon. Government speak for UFOs. And investigators claim McCaslin had experienced mental fog before disappearing from his home in Albuquerque, New Mexico. New Mexico?
Walt Flanagan
Yeah, right there. They've already laid as well. Mental fog.
Brian Quinn
What's the definition of that?
Bryan Johnson
Yeah, it says he had worked in top tier positions.
Brian Quinn
What if they come for podcasters next?
Bryan Johnson
I know. Wait a second.
Brian Quinn
What?
Bryan Johnson
It says here his name even appeared in WikiLeaks. WikiLeaks Dump of Hillary Clinton campaign chairman Joe Podesta's emails with former Blink 182 singer Tom DeLong claiming to have conversed with him about UAPs.
Brian Quinn
This is a wicked web.
Bryan Johnson
There's a lot of people involved in this. Rock stars, scientists, politicians.
Brian Quinn
I didn't see. Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Huh. So what do you think, Walt? Dead. Dead. Missing. Missing. Dead. Missing. Missing.
Walt Flanagan
I have little doubt that there isn't. That it's just a coincidence.
Bryan Johnson
11 people missing or dead?
Walt Flanagan
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Everybody working with infrared telescopes or alien life or.
Walt Flanagan
Why would they.
Bryan Johnson
Mental fogs.
Brian Quinn
Maybe they. Maybe they abducted them and they're torturing for them for information.
Bryan Johnson
Our government or the other guy?
Brian Quinn
I think the other government. They're like. They're like in a cave, like Tony Stark somewhere.
Bryan Johnson
China, Rush or Iran.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah, I. I really doubt it. I just think it's. It may not even be a real story.
Bryan Johnson
Really?
Brian Quinn
Wow.
Bryan Johnson
A doubter. You're gonna be next, Walter. Be careful.
Gideon Get Him
I can only protect you so much.
Walt Flanagan
I. I don't know what would be the advantage of killing them. What are they? What. What can they.
Bryan Johnson
Because they know too much about UFOs.
Walt Flanagan
About UFOs?
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
I don't know. I don't know. I mean, I don't think there's.
Bryan Johnson
If 11 people from the Plaza went missing or dead, you would be like.
Brian Quinn
Well, that's weird, right?
Gideon Get Him
I mean, one went missing we broke work.
Walt Flanagan
Even if they were insiders, had information, I mean, you could. You're just screaming in the wind. No one's going to really believe you, like, unless you have irrefutable proof that there's UFOs.
Bryan Johnson
I don't know, maybe you're onto something, though. And they're like, we don't want them to get the proof.
Brian Quinn
Should watch X Files. They did that shit all the time.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
There's a TV show, though.
Bryan Johnson
Trump announced Thursday that his administration would provide the public with answers within the next few days.
Walt Flanagan
Those answers never came right.
Bryan Johnson
Well, this was. Let's see, when was the date for this article? I think this was actually today. April 17th.
Gideon Get Him
Yes.
Bryan Johnson
So the answer is yes. So the answers are still to come. Evidently.
Brian Quinn
How old is he now, Trump?
Bryan Johnson
80 something.
Brian Quinn
He's in his 80s. He's in his 80s?
Bryan Johnson
Yeah. I mean, bet you he can't Google get him.
Brian Quinn
He could. He could now just stop. Start dropping truth bombs.
Bryan Johnson
If he wanted to.
Brian Quinn
If he wanted to. Now's the time.
Bryan Johnson
If he's not already. I mean, he doesn't seem to shy away from saying what he feels. Right.
Gideon Get Him
79.
Bryan Johnson
79.
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Okay.
Bryan Johnson
Huh. So you don't care, Walt.
Walt Flanagan
No, Yeah, I really.
Bryan Johnson
But for sure you would be.
Brian Quinn
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
It doesn't pique my interest at all. I don't really believe they were. They were even high level scientists.
Brian Quinn
But what if they were?
Bryan Johnson
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory engineer Jack Mywhite, who died in 2024. 2024. Famous MIT.
Walt Flanagan
So wait, but this goes all. So these 11.
Brian Quinn
It goes back to the 60s.
Bryan Johnson
20, 23. So the past three years.
Walt Flanagan
Okay, 11.
Gideon Get Him
11 over three years.
Walt Flanagan
I thought it was 11 in the past couple months.
Bryan Johnson
No. Well, I mean, they go missing, they vanish. Found dead.
Walt Flanagan
That's such a small percentage of.
Bryan Johnson
Of scientists working on that shit. I don't think so.
Walt Flanagan
I think there's probably thousands of scientists working on it since 2023.
Brian Quinn
How many would die before you were like, all right, something's up? Because 11's a sizable number.
Walt Flanagan
Well, they're just missing. They're not dead.
Gideon Get Him
And are they all working on the same project?
Bryan Johnson
No.
Gideon Get Him
Yeah.
Bryan Johnson
Components in American made nuke.
Brian Quinn
So what's the number? 25.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah, and they would. And it's not all UFOs. Some of it's nuclear.
Bryan Johnson
Nuclear shit.
Brian Quinn
Well, that's more concerning.
Walt Flanagan
That could be that they were working with. They were spies and they were maybe feeding information to.
Brian Quinn
That's concerning too. Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
I mean, I don't automatically assume that fucking. The Grays came down and took them?
Bryan Johnson
Well, no, I don't think that's what they're saying. I think they're saying that that part of it could be that, like, the Grayson come down and take them. But the. The people who don't want the Grays to be us, to be made aware of the Grays are the ones who did it.
Brian Quinn
Which ones? Dressed like Mickey Mouse again?
Bryan Johnson
Oh, it was a Gray.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, it was a Gray. Remember the aliens? The friendly ones had Mickey Mouse pants. We had a whole lore set up about seven years ago.
Walt Flanagan
You were talking about something that really existed.
Bryan Johnson
Really?
Walt Flanagan
What is this story? I've never heard.
Brian Quinn
No, it was your theory.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Brian Quinn
Covered their dick or whatever it was.
Walt Flanagan
They don't have genitalia.
Brian Quinn
They don't?
Walt Flanagan
No.
Brian Quinn
It doesn't even come out. Like. Like.
Walt Flanagan
Well, it's not. You can't see it from looking at it. Like, when they come out. I mean, most people, when they describe the aliens, they never describe any, like, outside genitalia.
Brian Quinn
And they. That would be notable.
Walt Flanagan
You'd be the first thing.
Brian Quinn
Right.
Walt Flanagan
I will admit this. The first day I'd be. I'd look at their big eyes, but then only a few seconds later, I'd be like. I'd look down.
Bryan Johnson
Just. Your eyes dart down. Okay.
Gideon Get Him
He's probably. Is he excited?
Brian Quinn
Okay. Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
It wouldn't be too. It wouldn't be too long before I took a sneaky peek down there to
Gideon Get Him
see what I was.
Bryan Johnson
Right. I knew it. Put your Mickey Mouse pants on.
Walt Flanagan
Yeah. And you wonder, would it advance society? Not have a need for genitalia?
Brian Quinn
Well, they still got to procreate. No.
Gideon Get Him
Right.
Walt Flanagan
Unless everything's done in a test tube,
Bryan Johnson
that ain't no fun. Poor aliens.
Brian Quinn
Sure. And they didn't have sex anymore.
Bryan Johnson
Yeah.
Walt Flanagan
Just scrape some cells and put it in a test tube, spitting it and then.
Brian Quinn
Wait, so they're clones? They're not even, like, offspring. Yeah, good theory. I like it. I like it. I'll go with it.
Walt Flanagan
All right.
Bryan Johnson
That's all I heard.
Brian Quinn
Yeah, I mean, I. You know, I'm gonna run back home. The WrestleMania pregame look like, how many
Walt Flanagan
people are at the house?
Brian Quinn
Well, they have. They have. Sal's coming over today. I got a couple of people coming over today. Just.
Walt Flanagan
It's like three, four hardcore wrestler fans.
Brian Quinn
Well, it's so long. The day so long because it starts at. They have like, pre matches and, like, commentary really is like, a big deal. So I'll just throw that on the tv, I guess. I bet you it starts around three or something like that. And then people just come and go, you know, because it spread over two nights.
Walt Flanagan
Oh, it's two nights.
Brian Quinn
Two nights. And your favorite match might be on Sunday. Whose match might be on Saturday?
Walt Flanagan
But it's not 48 straight hours, though.
Bryan Johnson
No, but it is long.
Brian Quinn
I went to. I went to a two, a two day one once, and I was like, I can never do this again. It's just too long.
Walt Flanagan
You were just sitting, watching people wrestle though, right?
Brian Quinn
Yeah, yeah, it was too long. It was like 10 hours. Yeah, twice.
Walt Flanagan
That's too much wrestling for you.
Brian Quinn
It's just too much to be in public because I get the whole time. People are coming up.
Walt Flanagan
You don't have a private box.
Brian Quinn
Oh, a man of the people, bro.
Bryan Johnson
The people I don't want to talk
Brian Quinn
to in third row,
Walt Flanagan
Pat my cat. Huh? Is that the softest cat you ever felt?
Bryan Johnson
It is, Mr. Quinn. It is.
Walt Flanagan
It's like a clown.
Brian Quinn
Say it.
Bryan Johnson
Say it.
Brian Quinn
Say it to him.
Bryan Johnson
I want to hear you say it to him, not to me.
Walt Flanagan
Tell him, Steve.
Gideon Get Him
Dave.
Date: April 20, 2026
Host(s): Bryan Johnson, Walt Flanagan, Brian "Q" Quinn, Gideon "Get 'Em" Getz
Theme: Key West event stories, studio updates, bloody mishaps, bachelor parties, eccentric guests, and the enduring magic of TSD
This episode of Tell ‘Em Steve-Dave! is a classic hangout: post-Key West event debrief, tales of personal triumphs (and disasters), playful roastings, and planning for future TSD endeavors. The guys go deep on the chaos and camaraderie of their group trip, report on surprise performances, discuss bachelor party etiquette, and touch on a string of mysterious scientist disappearances. The usual riffing, friendly mockery, and sincere affection are in full effect, with plenty of offbeat digressions and inside baseball for long-time listeners.
[02:40-04:25]
[04:45-06:17]
Raw, ridiculous, and warm. The guys blend ball-breaking and genuine admiration—especially for their “crew” and superfans. From making inside jokes out of catastrophic nosebleeds and strip-club adventures to plotting a primer episode for confused newcomers, TSD remains a show where everyone in the circle is welcome—the more idiosyncratic, the better.
Closing line:
