A
You have the floor. I have to be honest, I. Over the weddings I've been to over the last several years. I haven't heard that.
B
Me neither.
A
But I wonder, and I'm sure someone in the comments is going to let us know the story. Like, I wonder if there people have actually objected and not for like a stupid reason. You know, like, I object. I love, you know, like a joke. Like you got it. Like a legit. Like, no, like I don't think this should go through.
B
I mean, see, I don't. I don't want this to happen at a wedding that I'd actually be at.
A
I do.
B
But like, like I don't want that to happen to anyone that I know. Unless it's like a very fringe friend.
A
I mean. But then you're not going to go and break. But then you're not going to their wedding though.
B
I'm definitely not.
A
You're not going. I. How about this? How about this? Yes. You know, I've been really stressing how business minded I've been lately. What if it's a service that you can hire someone to object at your wedding if you don't want to go through with it, but you just. You're afraid. So like say like you and I are getting married and I don't want to marry you.
B
Yeah, right.
A
Fucking yeah, bitch. You'd want to marry the shit out of me. You'd be over there being like, oh, no, I have to hire a service. Get the fuck out of here. No, no, no, you're wrong. Don't fucking start me down this fucking road right now. Which road? The. The road of anger. Yeah, anger road.
B
Anger. Rocky road.
A
Rocky road.
B
Overrated ice cream, by the way.
A
Sorry.
B
Move forward.
A
Yeah, no, we'll get back to that. But you're right. And like you can hire them as a service and they'll just show up to your wedding and object and just be like, well, they objected.
B
We need to take a hold on everyone, chill.
A
We need it. You know what? You bring up some really valid points.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
And then just move.
B
Or just like I'm so distracted I can't right now.
A
That could be. And we could. They can call them the wedding crashers.
B
You probably run into some like trademark.
A
We're okay. We're okay.
B
Yeah.
A
Tell me that doesn't sound like good idea. I mean, there's something out there, right?
B
You could just also not go through with your wedding if you're not feeling it.
A
Yeah. But also sometimes people have confrontation anxiety and stuff like that. Sure. Instead of just being that person in the relationship. You can just say, like, you know what? You make some really great points. Random person I've never seen until right now.
B
How were you nervous on your wedding day? No, not about, like, Mary. I'm being like, just like, oh.
A
I mean, it was all backwards. We had a really beautiful, like, little wedding in the backyard. But, like, I. And Becca and I have talked about this. She was like, so tell me, like, were you nervous when you were gonna propose? I was like, no.
B
And she's like, she wanted you to be nervous.
A
She was like, be excited.
B
Anything. You're like, no, I was good. It was fine.
A
Well, no, I sat there, I explained to her, and I. And I personally feel this. I know everyone's different, but I was just like, I didn't feel nervous because there was no part of me that didn't know that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you.
B
Like, spend the rice.
A
The rice of my life with you.
B
Right.
A
You know, share your rice. There was no part of me that was just like, oh, man. Like, do you want to do this? Because, like, that's in my head. That's what I equate nerves to. Like, I. I have nerves about something. If I'm unsure if I want to do something or I'm unsure of the outcome. It's. Yeah.
B
I mean, I also. Getting, like, proposing and being not, like, 1 million percent sure is crazy work. Well, I don't know how anyone does stuff like.
A
Well, some people do it because they think, like, this will save everything, you.
B
Know, like, dude, one of the dumb. Dumbest. One of the dumbest things I could even conjure up right now, guys. But what I think. What I think Becca's talking about, it's not like a nervous of like, oh, I'm scared to do this, Or I'm, like, nervous. I don't know what to say type of thing, but just like, in it, like a. Like a.
A
Like a giddy. Like a butterfly. Yeah, I was. I mean, I was excited before shows.
B
I get, like, nervous. Like, I'm like.
A
But I don't get nervous. See, that's the difference is I don't. I don't believe those two things are, like, one in the same. I don't think those are nerves. I think that's, like, anticipation. Yeah.
B
It's like an anxious.
A
What am I doing here? I don't know, honestly. You're gokuing that up, right? I'm going. Just gotta.
B
Yeah. I don't even know what I said. I don't even know.
A
I don't. I don't equate those things to nerves, like, because I also get that before the show. Yeah, but, like, my mentality before the show is just, like, I have no reason to be nervous because it's like, the show is about to start, so, like, what am I gonna be nervous about? I just want it to be here already so I can do the thing that we enjoy doing. Same thing with proposing and marrying Becca is like, I don't believe it. As nerves, because I. As an individual, I'm nervous about things that I'm uncertain of or if. I don't know, like, the future is clouded. Like, I don't know what's going to happen.
B
Or you don't know where the bathrooms are.
A
Yeah, that's. Oh, my God. God.
B
Can't have that.
A
I gotta say, we did a shoot recently and someone poorly explained where the bathrooms were. And I panicked for a minute. Okay. Also, I went to the bathroom during.
B
That shoot, and they gave me the same directions, and I walked out. And then I. Luckily, I saw it immediately.
A
The roof.
B
I was like, that is so not the directions I would have given.
A
He said, make a left at produce. The whole store was produce. The whole place that we were at was produce. Yeah, but. Yeah, so I see that as anticipation, but. But I do. I know there are people out there that. That have nerves like, oh, my God, what is gonna happen if we get married? Then we could. They could hire us for a flat fee of a thousand dollars. Sure. Plus travel and lodging.
B
Lodging, yes.
A
You know, yeah. Yeah. And then we can. We can. We can say.
B
Are you saying we, like, we're gonna go do that?
A
Well, no man is an island. That is one of the rules of wedding. Crashing. Okay. Remember that poster that we all had when we were douchebag kids?
B
I didn't have it.
A
I probably did. No, I don't think I did. I know one of.
B
Did you have a poster in your college dorm of a girl?
A
No. No, no, no. You would have. You would. Honestly, it was the other end of the spectrum. All my posters.
B
Yeah, it was probably, like, Derek Jeter.
A
No, no, no, no. I can remember my posters very, very clearly.
B
Go slow, but give me. Give me one.
A
I'll give you three.
B
Okay.
A
Okay. Go slow. Okay. One was a Batman comic book cover.
B
Frank, you had a poster in your.
A
College dorm room of a Batman poster. That's awesome. That's amazing.
B
Okay, what was the other one?
A
Another one was Dexter Morgan putting his glove on. So just so you just. So we're all on the same page. So we're all on the same page. The girl bending over and grabbing beer or, like, holding two beer steins with her cleavage out, saying, like, I'll have two of those. Yeah, those. Those were not on my wall.
B
Right.
A
It was Batman and Dexter Morgan. Yeah. From the show.
B
Wait, what was the third one? Also, you don't have to say this, because I already know that your personal sports jerseys were. Were stapled into the wall.
A
They were pinned into.
B
Pinned to the wall. I'm sorry, but his own jerseys were hung up like a hall of fame.
A
I put my own jerseys in the hall of fame.
B
You probably had some newspapers of the Y.
A
No, no, no, no.
B
That was just in your bedroom at home.
A
That was just. Yeah, that was just one entire wall of my bedroom at home.
B
And your. And your Don Quixote posters. Those were cool. I like those.
A
Yes. And then the other one was. I think I've told you this. It was a big one. It was my first year. I can't remember the other years, but it was Pulp Fiction.
B
It was Uma Thurman.
A
No, no. It would make sense if it was a woman. Right?
B
What was it?
A
It was fucking John Travolta. Samuel L. Jackson, holding the gun at the guy. Shoot.
B
Did he look like a. Yeah, exactly.
A
So.
B
Oh, man.
A
Oh, that was. You know, it's awesome. My, my. Because you only saw my room, like, three or four times.
B
Yeah.
A
It was very college dorm. Like, you know, like I had, like, two bowls and three forks that I stole from, like, the on campus dining.
B
There you go.
A
It's all right.
B
It's all good.
A
I have to ask you something. Seriously here. This is not a joke. Oh. Someone made a comment to me, and I need your help. I think. Oh, no, I think you are more in. You're more fingering the pulse in terms of, like, trends and. What's so funny?
B
Fingering the pulse again?
A
Where? Is that not what it is?
B
No, we've gone over this, but it's. It's finger on the pulse.
A
Okay, whatever.
B
Yeah.
A
Fingering whoever's getting fingered.
B
Right.
A
Are skinny jeans really out of style? Yeah.
B
Yeah. It's time, Frank.
A
Because I wore skinny jeans yesterday.
B
Yeah.
A
And someone said to me, like, hey, don't let anyone tell you skinny jeans are out of style. And you burst out laughing. It's very funny.
B
Well, the reason why is because before, you had your phone in your pocket.
A
Yeah.
B
And I could see the cameras of.
A
Your phone through your jeans.
B
So I was like, dude, we're gonna have to Size up a little bit.
A
I like form fitting clothing. Yeah, it really likes you, but still accentuates my thunder and you're.
B
Yeah, yeah. Stormy over.
A
Hell yeah. It's a damn right cloudy thunderstorm over here. Yeah, here we go. I'll thunderclap it all day.
B
Jesus Christ. Yeah, this got a little thunderclap is wild stuff.
A
But are they really at it like.
B
Yeah, they are.
A
So what's in style for paint?
B
The baggier sort of thing. But you don't have to go baggy.
A
I don't like baggy though. Dude.
B
I don't mind it at times you're.
A
Like, I like, like you're a little bag.
B
They're not baggy. Maybe a little bit.
A
They're a little baggy. A little boot cutty.
B
Boot cutty?
A
Yeah, boot cutty. Baggy.
B
Well like I can't do like a bell bottom like a wide. I look like an idiot.
A
I just got rid of jeans that I realized were bell bottoms after having them for several years.
B
Did you wear them?
A
Yeah, I didn't see that I wore them, you know. You know what's funny is I wore them when we went to Austin, Texas for my bachelor party. There's a picture of me and you sitting in a chair.
B
You wore them then and I didn't.
A
Realize and one of our friends commented on it like, is Frankie wearing bell bottom? That's great. I was like, oh fuck, let's get rid of them soon.
B
Yeah, we'll figure it out. Anyway, there was this thing I wanted to talk talk about. I just found it on Twitter literally before we started recording. And it's the Department of Air Force, mind you.
A
Wait, who the. The Department of Air. So the Air Force?
B
Yeah, the Department of the Air Force sent out a letter and I don't know if this is real, but we're going to assume it is because haha.
A
He hahas and hehe baby.
B
But it says like it's been brought to leadership's attention that some individuals are using language that is inappropriate in the work environment. Blah, blah, blah. Basically they made a list and says leader. Leadership does however, realize the importance of open, honest communication between members. With this in mind, leadership has compiled the following substitution list.
A
So wait. Oh, so so basically what they're saying is that like people are using words that people are complaining about. So here, instead of those, use these.
B
Yeah. So they have the old phrase and then the new phrase that they want you to use.
A
Yes.
B
Yeah. So I'm gonna let you come up with something new. Maybe, maybe you line Up.
A
Give me that. Yeah, okay.
B
And if you do get some right, then you know that you're on the same wavelength as someone who works force. Yeah.
A
Honestly, when people think of bravery, they think of the Air Force and me.
B
Right?
A
Yeah.
B
The first one just says, no fucking way. That's the old one.
A
No, fuck. Come on. That's a good one.
B
Yeah, but they want a new phrase, like, so it's like a polite way to say no fucking way.
A
No fucking way. Like, go on, giddy up.
B
I think you're misunderstanding the game.
A
I'm gonna be real bad at this.
B
You're not creating a phrase. I mean, you're not necessarily creating a phrase. You're like, what's it. What's the appropriate way to say no fucking way while you're at work?
A
No way.
B
Right. No, it is. It just says, I'm not. I'm not certain that's feasible.
A
I'm gonna tell you right now.
B
Yeah, I've never.
A
Someone drops a feasible on me in, like, casual conversation.
B
I don't like that.
A
No fucking way. I don't beat the dog shit out of them.
B
Disgusting. Next month. You've got to be shitting me.
A
These are real good ones, Joey. Especially when you're in the Air Force. I imagine you have to say this stuff all the time.
B
You've got to be shitting.
A
You've got to be shitting me.
B
All right, well, what does that translate to? Into normal language.
A
Oh, so. So I would just think, like, you've got to be kidding me. But clearly they want it to be like, the, you know, instances that have been brought before us are at a point where they are, you know, seem to be humorous and making a joke or in mockery of this entire situation.
B
They just have. Really. That's what they have. Then.
A
Then this one really. The next one is so good.
B
Tell someone who gives a fuck. Oh, that is so good. I haven't said that in my life ever. And I'm gonna.
A
I'm good.
B
I have to be tell someone who gives a fuck.
A
Oh, God. I. I gotta be honest with you. The moment we, like, as a society, because everything. Whatever's old becomes new again. I mean, look at what happened with, like, vinyls. Vinyls came back in a big way.
B
Baggy pants.
A
When flip phones start coming back into the stratosphere, I am gonna just, emotionally charged hang up on people all the time. Even in the middle of, like, a kind, beautiful conversation, they're getting a. Tell someone that gives a bang.
B
Slamming it. God, we need to bring back payphones so I could flip out in one and slam the.
A
I. We've already spoken about the fact that we are in transition into a new studio.
B
Should we get a payphone?
A
You told me. Well, sure, but also, you also told me that an all a relic of episodes past might be coming back. Maybe people might be excited about that. That thing is gonna get beaten into oblivion if it does tell someone who.
B
Gives a fuck translates to, perhaps you should check in with whoever.
A
Whoever the fuck.
B
Right. Then ask me if I give a fuck. Which translates to, of course I'm concerned.
A
I'm concerned. Wait. Ask me if I give a fuck.
B
Ask me if I give a fuck.
A
But that. Me. But no, but that doesn't concern.
B
That doesn't make sense.
A
Of course I'm concerned. Is like confirming that. That you're upset about something. Or ask me if I give a fuck. You're basically. I don't. I don't care. Yeah, that doesn't make sense. When did the Air Force become no fun? This one just says, fuck it.
B
It won't work. And then it says, I'm not certain we can implement this.
A
Yo, there is someone. I hope this is real.
B
Why the fuck didn't you tell me sooner?
A
I'll try to schedule that. Oh, God. I gotta say, this one just says, eat shit.
B
Oh, eat shit turns into. You don't say.
A
That's not what. That's not what those two things mean, Mr. Air Force.
B
Next one. Eat shit and die.
A
You don't say, please kill yourself.
B
It just says, excuse me. Then it says, eat shit and die, motherfucker. Then it says, excuse me, sir. What the fuck do they want from me? Kiss my ass. Fuck it. I'm on salary.
A
Shove it up your ass. This job sucks. There's no way this is real. There's absolutely no way.
B
Blow me turns into. I see.
A
Blow yourself. Do you see? That's awesome.
B
Blow yourself.
A
Do you know how bad I wish? Another fucking meeting. Another fucking meeting. What would you do if you were a professional in the workplace and you got a memo with all this stuff on it?
B
Print it out immediately sent to the group chat.
A
Dude, one of my favorite moments when I worked in college was we had to do. I think I've told this story before, but just in case I'm gonna tell it again. We had to do, like, conduct hearings where, like, if people were in, like, an argument or something, or like, someone got, you know, like, written up for violating something, depending on the severity of whatever it was, we had to hand out the punishment. There was one where, like, it was like a full hearing and someone had to, like, read the text messages, and the person had printed and framed the text message, and it was just like, hey, please stop it. Literally, I still have it. It was like, hey, please stop locking the door. And the person just responded like, hey, please stop being a fucking cunt.
B
Wow, that's fire.
A
And like this serious room of someone having to read this to a room of people.
B
This is not right. Have you ever called someone a cunt?
A
I'm sure I have. Why are you sure of that? I mean, I'm sure I have.
B
You're a cunt. You've done that.
A
Maybe not to their face. Maybe just like, oh, that person's a cunt. But it feels bad.
B
Cunt is.
A
It's so sharp.
B
You can, like, cut right through a conversation.
A
Really.
B
It feels like a word that the person can hear even if they're not around.
A
It feels like in 30 years, we're gonna look back at this and be like, we said that. You know what I mean? Like, you know, like people like, kind.
B
Of like when you shoot a gun in the air, you don't really think about it, but, like, it's gotta come down. You ever think about that?
A
Yeah, people die like that all the time. There have been instances. Mythbusters covered that in an episode where, like, someone just, like, randomly shot in the air because it goes up and then it comes down hard just as fast.
B
Also, is it true if I throw a coin off the Empire State Building, like, I'm going to kill a motherfucker?
A
No, but I. That one is pretty cool. Like, I heard it was like, if someone throws a coin, you try to catch it, it'll go through your hand. I heard it go through the top.
B
Of your head and split you in.
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
B
Damn.
A
That'd be kind of cool. I mean, not dying, obviously. Not the dying part of it.
B
Right.
A
But I mean, how has no one thrown just a bucket of coins off the top of the.
B
It is shocking that no one's done.
A
That saying, we got people getting shot in Midtown.
B
Yeah.
A
Coins off of the top of the Empire State Building just seems like a no brainer.
B
And I feel like it wouldn't be.
A
Hard, I mean, to throw a coin. I'm sure they don't want us up there.
B
I want to speculate.
A
Yeah, guys don't do. Don't throw coins. I'm sure there's a ton of cameras up there that people would see it immediately.
B
I feel like there's not a lot of cheap Exchange left in the city. You know what I mean?
A
Oh, no one has coins. I'm okay with that.
B
Me too. I hate coins.
A
Coins are weird.
B
I don't even like cash.
A
I do like multiple coins.
B
Like, you like shaking.
A
I like shaking coins.
B
Okay.
A
But the minute there's just like one or two coins.
B
What's your favorite coin?
A
Half dollar.
B
That's a cool coin.
A
Sick. I still have one from like the six gold dollar.
B
The dollar coins.
A
Yeah, that was pretty cool.
B
Was that Harriet Tubman on that one?
A
I think it was. Was gonna say Sigourney Weaver, but that's not true.
B
I think not. Sigourney Weaver.
A
Sojourner Truth, I think.
B
No, dude, I'm pretty sure it's Harriet Tubman.
A
That might be. Am I?
B
Yeah.
A
We should just do it quick. Sure. We should do it. Or no. Who was the other? I think it's Tubs.
B
No, no, no.
A
I think there was somebody else. I think there was somebody else and it's gonna affect me.
B
It's gonna.
A
Golden dollar.
B
No, there was. The half dollar is like one of the fucking president. Like one of the.
A
It was RFK Sacagawea. I knew it was. What? Yeah, dude. The front side of the golden dollar coin was designed by sculptor. Yeah.
B
Wait, so Tubs is on something?
A
I don't think Tubbs is on anything.
B
What?
A
Dude, an Original from year 2000. I remember this, like, pre owned on ebay is going for like 1600 bucks. Wow. I mean, there's also other ones going for like $9.
B
So someone is getting really crazy with.
A
Yeah, no, I knew. I knew it wasn't.
B
Wow. I thought it was Harriet Tubman.
A
Sacajawea. You remember what she did, right?
B
She did stuff for sure.
A
And you remember?
B
Nope.
A
You don't remember. She was like the. Like the guide for Lewis and Clark.
B
Ah, yeah, yeah.
A
They were just like, what is this? And she was like, it's a rock. And they were like, got it. Saka.
B
Thank God.
A
Saka.
B
Thank you. Saka. Yeah. I mean, what an interesting thing. Imagine being the first people to see the Pacific Ocean.
A
Same as the Atlantic. I would say half dollar. Quarter quarters are cool, bro.
B
I with dimes. I really with dimes. Really? Yeah. I with dimes.
A
I don't care. For that we can agree. The worst is a nickel.
B
The wack.
A
The wack is. And it's overly fat.
B
Dude, what is that thing?
A
Pennies. I like because they're. They're cool, but they make.
B
They're like.
A
Have you heard the conspiracy about pennies?
B
No. What?
A
Where it's like they're the only one that's not silver. Because, like, they were mad at Abraham Lincoln for freeing the slaves, and that's why he's facing another direction and shit like that. I don't know how true.
B
Pussy.
A
I don't know how true it is. But, yeah, it's possible.
B
Now. Pennies are just like. I don't know. I'm saying whenever you have pennies, it's like they would step on. They're all up.
A
Yeah. A penny to me, is basically just like a pigeon. You know what I mean? Like, they're useless. They're rats.
B
But I will say rats. I will say a fresh penny is up there because they're shiny as.
A
Not only are they shiny as hell, but, like, they're just like, this isn't a real. Like this. Like, where did this come from?
B
Yeah.
A
You ever think about that?
B
Like, yeah, where do we get this?
A
Who just, like, puts fresh pennies out there and they're just like, go be pennies? Yeah. That doesn't make sense.
B
Well, the Federal Reserve, I believe.
A
I know, I know, but it still doesn't make sense, right, that they could.
B
Just print it, I think.
A
Just get pennies. How many pennies are there in the world that are just not being used?
B
That are, like, on the ground?
A
Like, on the ground, in a ditch?
B
Did you think I was gonna have.
A
An answer to that in the United States?
B
I would say a whole bunch.
A
Okay, give me a dollar amount. Not even just pennies, okay. Just loose change out there.
B
Loose change.
A
Oh, all loose change, bro. Lots. But how much? And I'm not saying within a person's. Like, they have it in, like, a water jug, like your family. Right, right. Okay. Or like, they throw them at their son because he got a 98 on this test instead of a hundred like my parents did.
B
Hold on, let's. Let's frame this for a clip. Here we go.
A
Bang this guy. Big guy.
B
We're directing now.
A
We're. We.
B
You wanna.
A
Okay, Joey, do you want to ask the question? Yeah.
B
Change on the ground. You guys are watching it.
A
You're seeing how the sausage. Here's our sausage. Here's a sausage. Well, you want to see some sausage? Look over at Joe's camera.
B
That's enough.
A
Here's sausage. Cut to Joe. Okay. Hey, Joey, I have a question.
B
You're not gonna start it like that. Just ask me how much.
A
No, seriously. How much loose change do you think there is in the United States that's not, like, in a piggy bank or, like, A. Like a.
B
Just on the ground?
A
Yeah, just on the ground. In the United States, I.
B
Like, maybe close to a million dollars.
A
Get the fuck out of here, Frank. Are you kidding me? Dollars?
B
People are walking around on the earth.
A
I'm saying, brother. No way.
B
In the U.S. in the U.S. i'm.
A
Saying a hundred thousand. Max.
B
No way.
A
Max. Dude. Frank. Max, there's a hundred thousand.
B
I can find a hundred thousand dollars.
A
In coins in Central Park. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no. No way, dude. A million. Do you know how many coins you need?
B
A lot.
A
Frank, the country is vast. Okay? Forget about, like. What about dollars? What about that? I was gonna say just. Just the gold coins.
B
What gold coins?
A
The gold dollars.
B
What about those?
A
If we're just doing those, there needs to be a million.
B
Oh, yeah.
A
That's not. That's too much, brother.
B
I know, but Frank, coins, pennies.
A
There needs to be a hundred times a million, Frank.
B
But coins are never alone. There's not good. You're not gonna find.
A
That's literally what known for being just alone.
B
No one gives one cent back. Like, maybe a quarter might be alone. That's a lot of money.
A
Penny, give a penny, take a penny. Yeah.
B
No one does that.
A
Who. But also, why would you do that if you just need a penny?
B
I don't get it.
A
Have a penny.
B
Nothing happened with that exchange. I think there's. I definitely think there's hundreds of thousands of dollars.
A
I say hundred thousand dollars, max. $200,000. Think about the amount of just. Just like. Forget about the dollar amount. Think of the amount of coins that need to be around.
B
Yeah.
A
100 pennies in a dollar. Yeah. Times a million, brother.
B
Right?
A
A hundred million pennies just in the ground.
B
Sure.
A
No way, Frank. No way. And we're not talking, like, pennies from like 1901 that are like, in more valuable because they use this alloy.
B
No, no, no. But does it count if like some, like, just in the soil?
A
Yes, that counts.
B
Definitely. A million.
A
No. No way, dude. Frankie, no way. People are out there with metal detectors finding pennies and dimes and quarters all the time. Yeah. At the beach.
B
How much money do you think is in the ocean?
A
Whoa, dude, I didn't actually think the beach. The beach? I didn't think the beach.
B
There's probably tons of money at the beach.
A
The beach. And like, just like other stuff, too. All right. United States. Continental. United States.
B
So not Hawaii? If you give me Hawaii.
A
Well, but. But from grass to grass. Fuck the ocean and the beach.
B
Okay, okay.
A
I think $200,000, max.
B
I think there's more? There's more.
A
What do they got up in Alaska? They got bear meat, Wolverines and bones. They don't have any change up there lying around.
B
They definitely did. They're a society, Frank.
A
I know they are, but most of them aren't. That's what I'm saying. Who most of Alaska is now, like, it's probably just bears, dude. Yeah, bears and snow probs. Now, how much money do you think is in the ocean? And I'm not just saying now, I'm not just saying like currency and tender. I'm saying like.
B
Currency and tender.
A
I'm saying like someone dropped like a Rolex into the ocean.
B
Yeah, bro, there's probably so much of that. Really? Yeah.
A
Crazy, right?
B
Think about this, right?
A
Yeah.
B
Think about how much money or how many things are left behind at clubs. Like at the end of the night they turn the lights on.
A
Yeah, but think about all the shit behind, valuables they're leaving behind by accident. Chapstick and a fucking broke self.
B
Cell phones. People like their chains, maybe full of their earrings. Like, yo, you find a lot of shit.
A
You know what? I remember so clearly and you might be the only person for this story.
B
Oh, God.
A
Do you remember there was a nightclub in our neighborhood growing up called Remy? Yeah, Some people may remember it, some people probably don't. Most people don't.
B
99.5% don't. Go ahead.
A
There was a nightclub in a story called Remy and I always remember walking along 45th street heading toward like 23rd Avenue from Ditmars and looking in the window and just seeing crusty dollar bills that had fallen behind. Yeah, the benches and shit that were just in the window. And I always thought to myself, like, there's got to be like $30 in there. Which at the time could have bought me a week of having fun. Now that's not a fucking damn thing. Yeah, but did you ever see those growing up?
B
No, I don't even know what you're talking about but I imagine that like, that happens all the time. There's like money and shit left behind.
A
I can't. I really wish that someone were to hit me up and they were just like, I buried a ton of treasure. I want, like, I really want to find treasure, Frank youn think no one's.
B
Gonna hit you up?
A
Do you think treasure exists?
B
Of course.
A
Like, and I'm not talking like, we're.
B
Talking about Davy Jones's locker here. Treasure.
A
Well, isn't that. I don't think that's treasure. I don't Think so, either.
B
I thought that was just, like, the deep blue sea.
A
No, Davy Jones Locker. I think it was just, like, a place.
B
I thought. I thought it was like. Like an expression of, like, you'll. You'll drown in the ocean.
A
Well, that's probably from where you got it from, which is SpongeBob. But Davy Jones Locker is.
B
Did I tell you that when I.
A
Was in Fire Island? That a guy.
B
What?
A
You're right.
B
Right. It's an expression.
A
It's an expression referring to the bottom of the sea, regarded as the grave of those that have drowned at sea. Davy Jones Locker. I thought it was like, a place for ghosts. Well, I guess technically. All right, we're both right.
B
No, that's not how that works, buddy.
A
I'd like. Fred, what were you excited about, dude?
B
In. In. I don't know if I told you this, but I was. When I was in Fire island, we were, like, walking to this place, and it was so far, but because there's no cars on the island, and I was like, bro. I just like, whatever. And this dude drives by on a golf cart, and I just. I just, like, jokingly was like, oh, you're gonna give us all a ride. And he slams on the brakes and he's like, yeah, get on. And I was like, real. And he's like, yeah. So we get on. This is the most.
A
I love interactions like that.
B
I can't remember what he looked like exactly, but he looked. But he reminded me of. You ever see the Polar Express?
A
Unfortunately, yes.
B
You know when the kid goes on top of the train and there's that guy who's, like, homeless? Kind of vaguely.
A
Yeah.
B
Right.
A
He was like that.
B
Because he looked like he was covered in soot and he was driving a golf court and we were all on it. And then he starts having a conversation with me. And then he's telling me he pulls over at one point and he goes, you see that house? And I go, yeah. He goes underneath that house. If you go all the way down, that's. That's Davy Jones's locker.
A
I said, what? He told me that he knew, and I was like.
B
I was like, what do you mean? And he's like, I. It's there. Like, that's where it is.
A
I gotta look.
B
And I'm like, what the fuck?
A
Did you ever. Did you ever fact check? Where did I fact check?
B
I thought that guy was a ghost.
A
Frank.
B
I didn't think he was.
A
Honestly. You might have been talking to, like, probably. I thought it was an old fisherman ghost.
B
It just says he was like, there's Davy Jones's locker. And I was like, I don't even know how to take that.
A
It just says the bottom of the sea. I mean, technically, he wasn't wrong.
B
Yeah, I guess. I guess, right?
A
Technically he's like, if you go underneath this island that we're on, he literally.
B
Pulled up to a specific house. He said, under this house you go down. That's Davy Jones's locker. And I was like, that's kind of sick though.
A
I was like, what the fuck? Under an island. Do the ads. Do the ads first. Do the ads first. Oh, my God.

B
I don't know, but.
A
So hit me. This is a big water themed episode.
B
It is.
A
Okay. Which I don't hate, but I do not like.
B
Right.
A
The ocean fucks me up. Yeah. Can you go under an island?
B
Like swim under an island?
A
Like swim under, like, maybe not Hawaii, because I know that's all volcanoes and. But, like, let's think of like an island, like the middle of the ocean, Like Bora Bora. Sure. Right. Okay. Is it like just like a floating island?
B
See?
A
Or is it like a. You can go underneath because I'll be honest with you.
B
Yeah.
A
Why? We should do that. That would be cool. Okay.
B
Two things.
A
I mean, not me, I hate underwater.
B
I was going to say two things I'm never attempting.
A
Oh, yeah. Okay.
B
I mean, so I wanted to say that you could if you swam deep enough, but that's stupid because obviously you can't swim under an island because then they'd move.
A
Oh.
B
Like Hawaii would like, eventually crash into something.
A
I didn't think about.
B
You know what I mean?
A
I didn't think about that.
B
So Hawaii is just connected to the crust of the Earth, the mantle.
A
The mantle.
B
That's it. That's it. Yeah.
A
I think it's just volcanoes. That's what Hawaii is, it's volcanoes.
B
Because I heard all islands are volcanoes.
A
Oh.
B
I don't even know if that's.
A
Long island is not a volcano, isn't it?
B
No.
A
I mean, there are parts of it that certainly suck, like volcanoes do.
B
Yeah.
A
But I don't think. I think some of them are just like, they broke off or like there was space in between and then it just got flooded because of the rising tides.
B
Have you ever been on an island? Like a real island?
A
Long Island? I guess, if you consider that connected to the gun. Yeah. I mean, no, no, no. Technically, yes, but not for the sake of this argument.
B
I. I have you. Yeah. Too well. I went to Mykonos, so that's an island. But you're making crazy noises over there.
A
Oh, yeah.
B
But when I went to Mykonos.
A
That's a crazy. You've been to the two gayest islands. You've been to Mykonos, Fire Island. Those are very well known, like, gay attractions.
B
Yeah. There was nothing gay about Mykonos when I was there. Fire island was certainly gay, though. Okay, but you should. I told you, when we were walking around with Pete, dudes were loving. I was like, pete, they are the.
A
Kids and he is the candy store. You know what I'm saying?
B
He's like. He's Taking his shirt off. I'm like, you know what you're doing?
A
He like, he love every second. He likes to play. Like he hates it. He loves every single second of it. But.
B
Oh, and when I went to, I went to Azores in. It's. Yeah. In Portugal, it's such a weird feeling. And I know you especially would feel this way, but like when you're looking out and you're like, yo, I'm. I'm on a fucking island in the middle of the ocean and I can't even. You like when you're looking out, right? If you get high enough and you look around you, you're like, there's just water.
A
Nah, it's so weird. Fuck that. It really is weird. How ya there? On certain flights we've taken, we've gone. Like, whether it be like when we flew from LA to Seattle or like the times we've flown, you know, like the one we went to Puerto Rico. I can't look out the window. Really, I can't because I see nothing but water and it me up. It ruins me.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
So like, you know these trips that you have done, like, and I know like when you went to like, you've booked your trips like to and from Europe based off like red eye flights, that's the only way I would be able to do it because I would be so terrified of seeing nothing. Dude, I saw something recently where it was just like this spot on the, on the planet, you're closer to astronauts than you are to any human on the planet. And I was like, that's crazy. I couldn't, I couldn't. That concept fucking ruins me.
B
Yeah. When I, when I was, when we were there on the end, the islands, like a normal place, like there's like, you know, whatever. But the idea that I would like, you know, hurt my ankle or something and it's like I'm just on a highland in the middle of the ocean.
A
Yeah.
B
Like, in order to like get.
A
I'm sure if you hurt your ankle, Joe, I'm sure this island has some form.
B
No, they do. That's what I mean. But in my head I just kept saying like, bro, I'm on a. Like if I get her, I gotta stay on an island.
A
But like, honestly though, but like the, the inverse, like God forbid there was like a zombie emergency or something. That's a place you'd want to be sure. Because the island, it's a finite amount of space. There is a very like finite amount of people on it. You could kill them all if you have to. Geez, if they were zombies. That's what I mean.
B
Yeah.
A
You know, like, how big was.
B
How big was Azores, this island specifically was. I think you can get to like, the other. I think there's like 100,000 people who live there.
A
If you had you get to the other side, you could kill a hundred thousand zombies.
B
With enough ammo.
A
Yeah, but not even just ammo. Like a good lookout point, an ax, and a good friend.
B
An ax?
A
Yeah.
B
I have it in me to ax a hundred thousand people zombies. I've been tired.
A
Yeah. I'm not saying you have to do it all in a row, Joey.
B
Yeah, I do.
A
Like a hundred a day.
B
Holy shit, dude. You ever swing an axe 100 times? It's fucking hard.
A
No, I haven't.
B
Me neither. I've swung an axe a couple times.
A
I've swung axes a couple times, not a hundred times.
B
They scare me, though.
A
Why?
B
You know what I never understood about that? About, like, the places that exist where it's like, let's go ax throwing. There's a bar there. Let's throw axes. How did no one go? Maybe don't mix those. Don't mix those things. And they have a very specific way of throwing it because they went like this and cut their own head off.
A
We went.
B
Yes, like that.
A
Yeah. We went to an axe throwing place.
B
Yeah. I almost died that night.
A
Oh, you were sick, right?
B
Mad sick.
A
Yeah. What's. Yeah. Okay. Those seven years apart. Yeah. I. Yeah. I wonder what the liability insurance for a fucking axe throwing bar is.
B
It's so stupid.
A
It's not just stupid, it's dumb.
B
It's daint.
A
You know, there's a difference. Like, things could be stupid because, like, they don't realize how bad they are. Then when you're dumb, it's just like, you have no grasp of reality. And don't get me wrong, this is from someone that's been to an axe throwing place.
B
Lots of fun.
A
We had fun.
B
And I like danger. Not a ton, but a little bit.
A
You like danger? That's surprising. I wouldn't take you as a dangerful guy.
B
Dangerful?
A
Yeah.
B
I mean, not a ton. I mean, you definitely don't like danger danger guy anymore.
A
I used to be a danger guy when I was more comfortable in the dark than I was the light.
B
Yeah. You were just lying about being dangerous back then. No, you being dangerous.
A
Back at the lake, we did stuff that was dangerous, but, like, not traditionally dangerous.
B
Hide and seek. That wasn't traditionally dangerous.
A
It was called manhunt.
B
Right. You know, I miss Manhunt. Oh, my God, I miss playing Manhunt, dude.
A
Copyright right now for Santa Gato Studios video playing Manhunt. Just do a big Manhunt game and we put GoPros in all of us where we could find somewhere that does like, Manhunt games in the. In a warehouse or something. Or let's do hide and seek in the new studio. How?
B
Okay.
A
You see, what is it at.
B
The beginning of this episode where you're like, you know, I've been having really good ideas lately or something. Let's play hide and seek in the new studio.
A
That doesn't sound fun. 33. 33.
B
32. Yo, we're gonna be 33.
A
You recently brought this up, and I don't want to talk about it again.
B
So disgusting.
A
It is pretty gross.
B
Did we have this conversation recently?
A
Yes. I just said we had.
B
No, no, no. A different thing.
A
I was.
B
I was prefacing one, but like, how we're third. We're 32 years old. Right.
A
But I don't feel that we just had this conversation.
B
Was that on the show?
A
Yeah.
B
Okay. Yeah, because that was. That was like. I'm still thinking about that.
A
Yeah. No, like, when I remember being, you know, 15 years old, this was the crux of the conversation. Being 15 and hearing someone's 33 and be like, wow, they're old. And then it's just like fucking. I like, in some ways feel like an 18 year old more than I do. What I believed a 33 year old was.
B
Yeah.
A
You know what I mean?
B
I also remember being younger and being like, bro, that guy's like 23. Like, I remember saying that.
A
It was funny because, like, that's old. We would be like, I don't know if this happened in your high school. But like, I remember it was a thing that, like, there would be girls in our high school and be like 17 years old and just be like, she's got a boyfriend. He's in college. He's 22. He's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a sec. Yeah, like something up there.
B
There was definitely in my high school, like, sophomore girls who dated dude. And it's weren't in the school anymore. And I don't know how old they were.
A
But like, I mean, I don't know what the legality is behind, like, if you start dating at underage and then one of the people is just a couple years. Yeah. Like say for instance, like, you and your partner start dating at 16 and you stay together, and now one is 18 and the other is 17. You know what I mean?
B
Yeah, I mean.
A
Yeah.
B
I mean, I think in the eyes of the law that you. You are doing something.
A
I. I don't know.
B
I.
A
Honestly, I. I imagine that there's some form of, like, parents get involved, and they're just like, this is.
B
I've heard stories about that happening where parents, like, didn't want them to be.
A
Together, would be like, oh, that girl, she's dating a college kid. Oh. You know, and it's just like, we didn't. At the time, we were just like, whoa. I. And now looking back, like, Well, I.
B
Honestly definitely remember being in high school and hearing stuff like that and being like, that's so fucking weird.
A
I dated a girl that was a year older, and I was in high school, and she was no longer in high school.
B
A year is like. That year, I think, is not like.
A
Yeah, but still, you know what I mean? Like, I also knew, like, okay, here we go. Yeah, I knew one of our friends had dated a girl that was like, eight years older than us.
B
Than us.
A
Yeah.
B
And so what, is she dead now?
A
No, no, no. She's so old. No, maybe not eight. Maybe like six or seven, but, like, older. Like.
B
Like, they were 18.
A
Seventeen? Yeah.
B
Do I know them?
A
Yeah.
B
Yeah. I don't know. Yeah, so they were dating someone who was old.
A
And you'll remember it, bitch. Fucking remember.
B
You'll remember.
A
Yeah, you will.
B
Interesting.
A
Yeah, it happens. Yeah.

Boy, I would be there be there have been some car rides where I'd be the sexiest man on the planet. If they're into piss jeans.
B
What is it? A flex? What are you trying to say? That you as a grown man piss your jeans frequently?
A
Not frequently. It hasn't happened. I don't pee in my car anymore. Joey. I tell you this. New car, new rules. All alleged new car, new rules, no piss.
B
Okay?
A
It has happened once or twice on like an emergency basis, but for the most part, I've gotten my piss under control. I love that you said that. What?
B
It's only happened in emergencies. Like that means previously you were just doing it for fun. Wasn't an emergency. It's like, I'll just do it here.
A
No, no, no. That means before. I was just trying to be efficient. You know, I've always spoken about you.
B
Like to be efficient.
A
I am. If I am nothing else, I am.
B
Efficient and covered in piss.
A
And I.
B
And covered in piss. How much do they give you for your return to your car? They like you gave your car and they gave you money, right?
A
Oh, yeah. Too much.
B
Yeah, a dollar would have been too much. So piss soaked car.
A
You never know. Maybe they're into pee. I don't know.
B
I mean, apparently, but. So you've pissed your wet jeans before? You have wet jeans?
A
I have. I have accidentally pissed. I got pissed on my jeans. Not like on purpose, my jeans.
B
Dude, you ever accidentally kind of a.
A
Monster do you think I am?
B
I don't know.
A
I'll tell you not. Okay, but in that case, just a little hand sanitizer. Just rub it in and all's good.
B
Hand sanitizer doesn't stain your jeans.
A
It wets it. But then it dries.
B
I don't know if it stained.
A
I mean, I'm not. I'm not wearing white jeans like you.
B
You fuck.
A
Fuck.
B
No, you're. No, the fucking. The wet.
A
The.
B
The oil or whatever would like stain.
A
Oil. It's just alcohol, dude.
B
I don't know, it's.
A
It's not oil. I just.
B
I'm not sure.
A
I mean, I'm not getting like, Bath and Body Works, like the ones that have, like, scents in them. And I'm getting like. Not that I don't like those. I have like, Purell. Like the medical.
B
I like the ones that have the balls in them.
A
What?
B
You ever get hand sanitizer that has balls in them?
A
I think I have, but I don't. Not a big enough that I'm like, yo, look at these balls.
B
I mean, I'm not like, like balls. It's like little balls. Like, you ever have the gum that have balls? Those are good.
A
I love when. I love those.
B
Was that I love when I love those. This kid's losing it right now.
A
I am, honestly. Yeah. No, I do love the. The gum with the little balls in it.
B
Yeah. But they have hand sanitizers, the same thing. It makes me feel clean.
A
Oh.
B
I have an expensive soap in my house. Oh, and it has balls in it. Doesn't have balls because it's like, it's good for. What's that called?
A
Exfoliating.
B
Bang.
A
Yeah. So that's not balls. That's just like, grit. It's like balls former or may. I don't know how. What's going on with the ads, but I always. Anytime I get like, Dr. Squatch Soap, I got the ones that has grit in it. Oh, it's like a nice little scratch. I like. They got Harry Potter soaps.
B
What's that?
A
They're Harry Potter themed soaps.
B
And it stinks like a.
A
Like one is. One's a Griffin. They have one for the four houses. Oh, I'll tell you this right now.
B
All right.
A
Gryffindor smells great. Slytherin. Really great. Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff. I'd rather bathe in. Okay. I just want to throw that out there. Not my favorite.
B
Damn.
A
Yeah.
B
Why are they too, like, perfumey?
A
They just. I don't like, like, one of them is, like, vanilla.
B
Oh, I love that. I.
A
It's too vanilla. E, though. Or something like that.
B
Okay.
A
I didn't like. And the other one. I don't remember it was the other one. Actually, if I remember, I think the Ravenclaw ones didn't smell like anything to me. I hope they're not still a sponsor of the show.
B
I don't know. I hope they don't watch this one.
A
We'll find out.
B
But yeah, no, I like. I like exfoliating.
A
Should we edit out the Dr. Squatch stuff?
B
What? No, no, no.
A
Are you sure?
B
Yeah, you're fine.
A
All right. It's whatever.
B
So it's good and we like it.
A
Honestly, I really. You just don't like two of the. I just don't like flavors. Like, I mean, because I'm eating them. Honestly, I'll be honest with you. Yes. Don't. But soap looks delicious.
B
Yeah, I'm big into. Oh, there's two types of videos that I love on Tick Tock.
A
Give me them. Give me them right now.
B
Well, like, I hate that. Like, I turn my volume down because sometimes it's like, people talking and then they put those really cool videos next to them.
A
Oh, yeah, that's. They know what they're doing.
B
Two of them. One when they're, like, scraping soap, and it's like a bunch of checkerboard pattern.
A
In it, and then they're just. Yeah, yeah.
B
And they're scraping soap. Then the other one. Dude, which is my favorite?
A
Oh, I think I know. I think I know. Is it like when it's like, slime with, like, a. Like a hard shell and they crack it in their hands?
B
No, but that's not bad, actually. But it's the one where it's like. It's a. It's a paint roller. And then they take the thing and they squeeze all the pain off of it. And it's so nice. I love it. I love it. It's like, it looks like this, and then they take this, like.
A
I know what you're talking about. I know you're talking about. Yeah, it's okay. I love. Honestly, I do love those videos, though, because I'm always like, this is how they got us like that. That's how they get you. You know what I mean? Because I don't care what else is in the video. I care about the. You know what this is?
B
Yeah.
A
You know, a lot of the times it'll be like, you know, like. Like people. Like, people just like. Like a callus, and they're just, like, shaving it.
B
Yeah.
A
You know what I'm talking about?
B
Yeah, I like that.
A
Get that little dirty bitch.
B
I kind of like that.
A
Or the fucking. The hoof people. I love the hoofs.
B
Love the hoofs.
A
Hoofs.
B
That one tool that guy has where he's, like, carving it. I'm like, oh.
A
Oh. And then it's wet.
B
Yeah, it's all. But I like it.
A
I know you like it spitty and pissy.
B
I do like it pissy because when they get down to the hoof and it's like, this one's got an infection, and then the infection just squirts at you. And I'm like, that must hurt the horse.
A
I don't want the squirt. No, it's relief.
B
And then the guy's, like, pressing it.
A
Have you ever had an infection like that squirt? I mean, when you get it cut or lanced or something? No, no immediate relief.
B
Oh, it's nice because of the pressure.
A
Yeah, I remember what I. You know, I don't know if you know about me. I bite my nails sometimes.
B
Oh, I know.
A
And when I was in college, one time I bit, like, where the nail and skin meet, and it got infected and my finger blew up and my nail was white. And I went to the, like, healthcare services on campus. I was like, what is this? They were like, oh, you have an infection. It happens when people do this above. So they literally just like, pull the skin and it just fucking. Yo, my. My finger felt like a balloon.
B
Did they cut it?
A
They just pull it to, like, separate it because there's so much pressure under there that, like, you kind of all you have to do what they pull.
B
Wait, hold what they pull.
A
So, like, they literally were just, like, separating, like, and then there's so much pressure that it's just like, I want out, you know?
B
What'd you do?
A
I watched it rupture, and they gave me antibiotics and they said clean it and put Band aids with, you know, like a Neosporin on it and live the dream. Ew.
B
Disgusting.
A
Yeah. Yeah. I hate that.
B
But, yeah, I like those videos with the paint. All those. All those types of videos, I think are, like, kind of cool.
A
The ones where it's people and they. They have, like, gym chalk, like, lifters chalk, and they spray it with, like, paint water. And then they just. Fucking crotch.
B
Yeah. They crush it.
A
They crouch it. Oh.
B
You ever see the one. The guy, it looks like he's dealing with, like, icing, but it's like paint. Not paint. Maybe it's not pain. It's like.
A
It's like. Like. Like shaving cream. Like shaving cream?
B
Yeah. And, like, they're in.
A
Is it a cup?
B
No, it's in a bucket. And he's like, oh, like grout.
A
Oh. Oh. Is it like. Yeah, it's like plaster. Yeah. In a big bucket. And he goes up with that spatula.
B
Yeah.
A
It makes it two lines. And then he goes around. Yeah.
B
And then. But then he, like, flows all the.
A
Oh, he does.
B
It looks like he's pooping it.
A
He shit it. Yeah, he.
B
And I'm like, what the fuck was that, dude? I like that a lot.
A
I do kind of too. Honestly, I like.
B
You know what I really like to. I like watching men lay bricks.
A
Is it.
B
And I don't mean that in any sort of way other than how I'm saying. Okay.
A
I mean, I misinterpret it to mean something different.
B
No, it's. It's. It's when they're making a wall.
A
Is it in particular underpaid workers, maybe Hispanic ones that you like. I know what you're talking about, though. When they throw it on and then they take the trowel and they just like.
B
Like, yeah, dude.
A
And they put it on top and they shoved it.
B
Yeah. When they, like, they just take it and they just, like, flop it on the way. It's like.
A
And then the guy's like, you're gonna tell me. You're gonna tell me.
B
Sick.
A
You don't want to play with, like, wet cement, bro.
B
Put me in the truck.
A
Yeah.
B
And roll me around in the cement.
A
That would be good, but apparently it's bad for your skin cement.
B
Yeah, I imagine it is.
A
Frank.
B
What is cement?
A
It's just rock and water.
B
No way.
A
It's gotta be something. There's, like, other chemicals in it. But, like, that's the general idea. Is that like, it's just rock and water? No, I asked the question.
B
You didn't give an answer. And then you're like, I'm sure there's other stuff in it.
A
That's my question. Cement is.
B
It's rocks.
A
Limestone, clay and marl.
B
Marl? I don't know, but how do you spell marl?
A
M A R, L. Like Jacob Marley.
B
Mar. How is that the example? Like Marlborough.
A
Other materials. Shells.
B
Chalk Shell shells.
A
Shale, Slate, Silica. Sand, iron ore. Blast furnace. Slag. That sounds sick.
B
That sounds like a hooker's name in, like, Ireland.
A
Come here, daddy.
B
He's the Black Blast Orange slag. What was it?
A
Furnace. A blast furnace. Slag. That's definitely a slur. Oh, it's gotta be. It has to be. It's like, oh, this is my girlfriend. Yeah. She's a whore.
B
I didn't know there was that many ingredients.
A
Oh, there's more.
B
What?
A
Fly ash. What the fuck is that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's crazy. They add gypsum.
B
Stop.
A
I'm serious. They adding gypsum. A small amount of gypsum is ground up with the clinker to control how the cement sets when water is added.
B
The clinker.
A
I don't know.
B
I feel like I'm being pranked by an article.
A
Dude, when is AI ever been wrong? Yeah. Dude. And then you know there's a difference between cement and concrete. Oh, shit.
B
Wait, what did you look up?
A
Cement.
B
Oh, so concrete. That's more is more.
A
It's a mixture of cement, water and other stuff. So that's what you're talking about. So I'm right and you're wrong. You didn't give any answer. What you're saying where I said it was just like rock and water.
B
I knew that much.
A
That's cement. And I was right.
B
It's not added.
A
You just. Frank, you just added 100 ingredients.
B
Yeah, Frank.
A
There's all rocks, Frank. Shale. You never seen those people? That's good. Videos on TikTok. The people that find the raw rocks, the round rocks, and they're like, there might be an omanite in here. And he takes a little. He goes bank and it cracks open and it's a fossil. He finds it in shale.
B
I do like.
A
You ever seen people hammering shale?
B
Yeah, it's so good.
A
I do shells. Yeah, that's a rock kinda.
B
Shells are not rock.
A
Are shells rocks?
B
No, they're. What is rock? What is shells? Wait, what the fuck is shells?
A
I think shells.
B
No, no, no, no.
A
What are they?
B
What is a shell?
A
I think it's just like a part of an animal that's like.
B
Was it always a part of an animal?
A
At one point I imagine it is and then it's not.
B
So shells are just abandoned.
A
They're abandoned homes?
B
They're orphans?
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
B
Of animals?
A
Yes. Well, no, because they're not alive. The shell isn't alive. The animal that was within is alive. So they're like.
B
What about an oyster?
A
You know how, like, you always buy expensive clothes and then donate them because you immediately feel bad about it? That's what shells are. Shells are the donated clothes. Yeah. Of the ocean.
B
Okay.
A
If you've ever been every show, there's no difference between, like a Salvation army and the ocean.
B
There's probably one or two. Do you. So every single shell was always home to something?
A
Or is it.
B
Or is it.
A
Yeah, yeah. Something living was within or around or near that shell. And then things can grow on shells. Barnacles.
B
I don't like those.
A
I don't like them. But the videos where people crack them off and they save the lobsters, you ever see those?
B
I have. Those are good too. All the ocean videos are, like, the coolest. But I don't want to be a part of it.
A
I don't want to. I don't want anything.
B
I'd like to watch, but I don't want to be a part.
A
Don't want to. If I get one, you don't.
B
Guys, you know what looks like a lot of fun that I don't want to experience ever in my life, ever.
A
What?
B
When you see a video of like a fisherman and. And they. They can like jump up and then they're like hovering in the air because the boat is rocking so much hell, I don't want to be there, but I like watching it.
A
I would like to. You remember how, like, when we were kids, if you won on like Legends of the Hidden Temple, you can go to space camp. And it always was the shot of, like, the kids in like the zero gravity chamber, like, floating. I don't want to go to space. I want to go to space camp. I don't want to go to the ocean. I want to go to ocean camp.
B
But is that a real thing? Because it's not there. Is the zero gravity thing. But it's a plane.
A
No, they have like zero gravity things, not planes. Like really? Yeah.
B
I thought the only way to kind of like replicate that was like the plane that goes like straight up and then straight down or whatever the fuck. And you get like zero gravity for like a minute.
A
I would feel me up.
B
Should we do it?
A
Yeah. No, I can't be. I can't be in a plane going this.
B
I don't think it goes down. I think it goes like up, like, whatever. And then when they're doing this part.
A
Still still no. Still no. Still no. I'll be honest with you. Still no. Just to float, I'd go to space camp. What's that exactly? Like, you can go to space camp and you can go into like a zero gravity chamber and like, you could see.
B
I don't believe that that's a thing. What? How could you possibly not have gravity in a chamber?
A
I don't know. You could do. Space camp has been helping inspire the next generation of explorers for more than 42 years. Space aviation and robotic camps. This is something we could do.
B
Dude, I'm not going to space camp. It's for 11 year olds.
A
Frank, first of all. Yep, I know. It says from 9 to 11. Yeah.
B
Whoa. That's not even cool.
A
That they would.
B
Not that they said 911 stuff. We're not over it.
A
And the price, how much is it?
B
Space camp's probably expensive.
A
The price is how much you think? 2001? No. Can you.
B
Ages 9 to 11. It costs $2001 and it's run by Osama bin Laden.
A
Honestly, close enough. 1800 bucks.
B
Whoa.
A
Yeah, but then you could do a Space Academy, which is for 14 year olds, and that is 1900.
B
When do you get to be a cadet?
A
I have seen nothing about cadets. Advanced Space Academy Elite.
B
That just means it's more expensive.
A
$3,000 we're getting up there. 18 year olds.
B
You tell me an 18 year old is going to a space camp?
A
Yeah.
B
Time to grow up, Peter Pan.
A
Jesus, go to college. Adult Space Academy. Learn more. I'm gonna learn more.
B
I mean, you're either going, it's $900.
A
A person on site. Overnight accommodations for Friday and Saturday nights at camp, there's dorms, all meals beginning with dinner Friday evening through breakfast Sunday morning. Train like an astronaut on the multi axis trainer. Construct and launch your own rocket. Test engineering skills. Participate in a simulated space mission.
B
Dude, I don't know if I can handle that.
A
That sounds pretty cool.
B
Space mission. What am I saying?
A
I mean, you're doing it indoors, though. You're cool. Then they have space. Oh, that's for educators. I don't care about that one.
B
I feel like there's a lot of math and science that go into this.
A
Adult Advanced Space Academy.
B
Frank, I have a suggestion. Get off your fucking phone. The day that this fucking podcast gets an actual producer, that Frank can just be like, hey, can you look that up so he doesn't have to go to the phone?
A
But it's what makes us feel like we're real people. Like, we're not just being like, hey, can you look that up? Do that work for me, bitch. Like, we're like doing it ourselves. We're doing it ourselves. We're honest, real people that are right.
B
You know, we're honest, real people.
A
People like to show because they feel like they're in on the conversation. And the day that we stop being that is the day that we stop being us. And we don't want that day to ever be us to happen.
B
You see, when you start talking bullshit, it just.
A
If I talk too much, eventually it comes back. Falls. It falls apart. Yeah.
B
Your sentences are made of straw.
A
Yeah, basically, yeah. It's like, yeah, damn.
B
Would you go to space camp when you were younger?
A
Like, if you, like, if you. When I was a kid, like, you.
B
Would be into that.
A
I don't know, because if it was like, I won Legends of the Hidden Temple and it was like, you go to space camp or you can get Nintendo 6418 Sketchers. Well, I take the 64. I wouldn't hate the sketchers. I'll be honest with you.
B
We should Bring back Light Up Sneakers for adults for anything copyright.
A
Look at this. We're just continuing to innovate and we've.
B
We copyrighted all the ideas because Frankie said copyright.
A
Light Up Shoes for adults.
B
Yeah. Would you. It seems like you would. What are you doing? Oh, he's going. He's going to the phone. Yeah, they do exist.
A
Are you sure? Yeah. How sure?
B
Not sure enough that you won't continue to look at it.
A
Light Up Shoes for adults. Heelys.
B
Yeah.
A
Yikes. Did you ever have a pair of those? My brothers did. I did not.
B
Are they cool?
A
No. No, they aren't. And I'll be the one to say it. I'm sorry, Heelys. I hate to destroy your whole campaign.
B
I think they're okay. There's some dudes who do, like, a bunch of tricks, and I know this looks kind of cool, but, like, not in high school.
A
It looked cool when you were. Yeah, exactly. It looked cool when you would go home and, like, you know, watch Disney Channel. Like, right. Not now.
B
Yeah. Like, if you're in high school and you're really good at heelys and you're like, you could do a bunch of cool tricks, like. That's fire. You just will not get the moment you graduate.
A
The absolute moment you graduate. Those things better be in the dumpster. Yeah, better be. And if not, they're tough. If I saw a pair of Heelys on my college campus, I think I would have lost my mind.
B
I tell you this, I prefer Heelys over, like, ripsticks.
A
What the hell's a rip?
B
You know the thing where it's like, you, like, move like a snake.
A
Oh, it's like a one board. Yeah. You know, those are way cooler.
B
Nope.
A
Have you seen the ones? These are bad. Have you seen the ones that. It's like a scooter, but it, like, breaks off and you, like. And it, like, pumps and it's weird.
B
No.
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's weird. I was gonna look it up, but I'm not gonna.
B
How do you feel about the motorized one wheel?
A
Hate it. I'm not big on it either. I hate it. I think we need to just, like, walk, bro.
B
The guy across the hall from me leaves his in the fucking hallway.
A
Take it, throw it. I've break it.
B
I could possibly one night come home drunk and if it's there being like, I'm just gonna try it out.
A
I mean, I think you need a key for it, but also you don't need a key to take it and throw it down the garbage.
B
Garbage. Yo, they're fucking big.
A
Yeah, I know, dude. And they're like. They're weird. Like, I remember. I've been on. You've been on a hoverboard before, right?
B
Yeah.
A
It's weird.
B
It's tough.
A
Like, you're like, I. Your brain is like, I should fall. But this thing is like, you're not gonna.
B
Right?
A
So I didn't. I never liked it.
B
I'm not big on that. I remember. You remember mopeds? The ones you could sit?
A
Those were like. When you heard a moped in the neighborhood, you knew shit was going down.
B
I don't know if I told you this, but our friend Dennis got a mo. A brand new moped. It was white, and it had a handlebars like this. And, like a chair.
A
You're explaining. You're something. I'm very familiar. But some of them don't have the seat.
B
You just, like, stand on it. Yeah, this one had, like, a chair and he was like. He's like, be careful with the throttle. It's like.
A
It's very sensitive.
B
Very sensitive. And I. The first time I just went like this, the whole thing came out of my hands and just went down the block and then eventually just hit the floor and, like, spun out and it scratched the fuck out of it. Kid wanted to beat the.
A
Yeah, I imagine he was not very pumped.
B
Yeah. And then I was like. And then I've never ridden one again because I was like.
A
I recently, like, someone had, like, a motorized bike, like, in the neighborhood, and I was like, oh, I'm gonna try it out. Yeah, yeah.
B
They move.
A
They move. You gotta be ready for it, dude. I was going fast. I asked the dude, I was like, how fast can this thing go? He's like, 30, 35 or something like that. When you're not on something and you're on something this big, that's very, very fast.
B
I don't like going fast. I don't like it.
A
You know, I. I don't know how to answer that question because where the fuck are you going fast?
B
Who asked you a question? I don't like going fast. I don't know how to answer that.
A
Starting to get at each other's throats here. We need to back off. Yeah, back off and be happy.
B
Frank, where can they find you?

Podcast Summary: The Basement Yard – Episode #482: "We're Going To Space Camp"
Introduction
In Episode #482 of The Basement Yard, hosted by Santagato Studios, Joe Santagato and his co-host engage in a lively and humorous discussion covering a variety of topics. From wedding mishaps and fashion trends to quirky personal anecdotes and societal observations, the duo delivers an entertaining conversation filled with laughs and relatable moments.
1. Wedding Woes and Hypothetical Services
The episode kicks off with Joe and his co-host (Frank) contemplating the rare occurrence of wedding objections they've witnessed.
Joe: “[00:00] You have the floor. I have to be honest, over the weddings I've been to … I haven't heard that.”
Frank: “[00:26] What if it's a service that you can hire someone to object at your wedding if you don't want to go through with it?”
They humorously explore the idea of a service called "Wedding Crashers," contemplating its feasibility and potential reactions from friends and family.
Frank: “[01:42] We need to take a hold on everyone, chill.”
Joe: “[02:06] You probably run into some like trademark.”
