You just.
A
What do you think, you're my uncle or something, and you're gonna trick me.
B
Like, oh, look at my nose every now and then? This is a serious one. I can crack my sternum. Like, I go like that, and it pops and it feels so good.
A
Really? That sounds like it would be painful as all hell.
B
No, it feels really good.
A
Really?
B
Yeah. I might have problems.
A
I would say that if you continue to crack.
B
Well, no, they debunked that. It's been debunked.
A
Has it?
B
Yeah. Where they were just like, it's gonna give you arthritis. And, like. No, you're just popping little. Like, they're like little pockets of osteoporosis or something like that.
A
Osteoporosis is the. Your bones, like, whittling away. Yeah.
B
No, no, but, like, there's something in. There's a fluid in your things that you're popping. Can you crack anything? Crack me up, I guess. That doesn't line up. Crack yourself up. Anything. Try to crack your neck.
A
I.
B
Don't be scared.
A
I'm terrified.
B
Why?
A
Because I could die.
B
You can't. You. You physically can't Crack your neck To.
A
Frank, if I wanted to crack my own neck, I absolutely could.
B
No, I don't think it's like, bro.
A
I could crap my.
B
Pants. Yeah.
A
After I crack my.
B
No, I think I saw something once, and it was like, you can't in, like, to yourself exert the amount of force needed to snap your neck to kill you.
A
Not with that attitude.
B
I'll be really honest with you. That's a sick way to go out.
A
Cracking your own neck.
B
If someone were like, that's cool, dude.
A
Whenever I watch movies of someone getting their neck cracked or snapped.
B
Mm.
A
It snapped, right?
B
Yes.
A
I'm like, that can't be real.
B
No, it is. They're. They're, like, severing something.
A
They're just, like, turning their head real fast.
B
I think they're, like, severing something that, like. It's like, if you sever that part of the spine or something, it. You were dead, like, period. I will tell you this. These people that go to those chiropractors, and they're just, like, inches from death. Dude, I could not. I could not, because you're. You're asking. You're putting yourself right there. Right there on the cusp of death. You and death could kiss, and you could taste the metal in its mouth, and you're just not. You're just. You're not dying.
A
I see those videos, and it's like, sometimes he puts this. He puts, like, a towel over your neck and head, and it just bro.
B
Pulls it.
A
I'm like, you're gonna pop my head off?
B
Like, pop. Yo, it's. It's a little intense. And I know there are people that are. Or go to the chiropractor that are going to be like, no, no, no, listen. This is actually what it is, an adjustment or whatever. Cool. But also, no, dude, yo, I've been.
A
To a chiropractor before, and he did this thing where he would align my spine every time I went there. I went for, like, my knee. I had, like, a torn meniscus. And then he was like, I get in there, and he. He put me on my face.
B
Yeah.
A
Or my stomach.
B
I should say. Face down, ass up.
A
My ass was down as well.
B
Okay, down. Down for whatever he. To it.
A
No, but he would do this to my neck, and then he would, like, be at the top of my. Here. My neck. Where my neck meets my back.
B
Where. Where's your. In your crack? In this?
A
Yeah, that.
B
Those.
A
There was a. There was cracking going on.
B
Yeah.
A
No, but he would do this thing where he Would go like this and he would kind of shake it. And he's like, I'm aligning your spine. And I was like, I've never felt. I feel like an arrow, dude. I feel straight as an arrow. Yeah, But I go in there and the first time he did it, I was like, dude, I'm a fucking.
B
There's. Dude, there's that person on the Internet, they work a lot with like professional wrestlers, but they have like a hammer and chisel. Yeah, have you seen? And he like puts the chisel like in the person's asshole and then just fucking bang, yo. And literally goes to town. Have you seen those videos?
A
Dude? It's like Michelangelo sculpting, yo. Legit.
B
No, but he's swinging hard, yo.
A
How does that to help me?
B
I don't know.
A
I know you trying to chisel my ass, like marvel sure.
B
I'm sure that there is a legit reason and why they do it. I refuse to believe that it is real because yeah, bro, like, it's a big like. Yo, go look at it. It's like a big chisel. Dude, this ass is getting just fucking hammered and chiseled away.
A
That's what I'm saying. And also I'm scared because I don't have a huge but hole. But if you take a hammer and chisel to it, the chisel could go in.
B
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Just so we're clear, he's not chiseling the asshole itself. It's like the tailbone, the coccyx.
A
It looks like he's close to the hole.
B
I mean, I agree. Wrong hit, one wrong slip, you're getting, you know, punctured like a balloon.
A
That's what I mean also, bro. You're gonna hammer my coccyx. Take it easy.
B
I mean, if anything, like, I don't know, your head's gonna like pop out, you know, like you're gonna be like a rock em sock em robot.
A
Send my spine through the back of.
B
My neck, walk out like a rock em sock em robot.
A
Yeah, you know, the top of your spine. You're hammering my coccyxing.
B
Listen, I've been to a chiropractor.
A
I've never been hammered. Have you?
B
I've never been hammered. Although they did have this machine.
A
Have you ever been knee hammered?
B
Oh, yeah, my knees been throttled.
A
I love the knee hammer.
B
Yeah, bro, they used to. When I got my knee surgery, I had to go to. It's for reasonable therapy and they had to like test my reflexes and shit.
A
I think that's so fucking cool.
B
They would do the stimulation on it, the electrostim, and it would be like a pulse, and it would be like. That's cool, bro. It's. I love electricity. I love. I love hammers.
A
Electricity. Shirt. Slap me in the face.
B
Okay.
A
The reflex test, though, like, pink bank. I love that.
B
Yeah, it's like.
A
Doc, let me do it.
B
I'll tell you this, though. That thing that they use, that, like, little, like, red rubber thing in there. That looks delicious.
A
It looks like a shark tooth.
B
It does. It not only looks like a shark tooth, it looks like Ed. It's edible and I'll chew on it for sure.
A
I don't know about you.
B
I mean, I won't eat it. I would. I'd look at it and I gnaw on it. I would. Oh, that thing is getting a no. Hundred percent, like, thousand percent.
A
Yeah. Like a mouse on rope.
B
Well, no, mount my. My side. Nope.

Yeah, a dog with a rubber ball in the side of his.
A
So stupid.
B
Just like this.
A
Yeah, yeah.
B
Like you need it. Like you need a gnaw.
A
Like Popeye smoking a cigar.
B
Like Popeye with his spinach and his cigar. Same side of his mouth, by the way.
A
Bananas.
B
Which was crazy.
A
What a combination. A can of spinach and a cigar.
B
And it was like, creamed spinach. Right. It wasn't just, like, legit spinach.
A
I mean, cream spinach is legit if.
B
It'S made it at a. Not in a can.
A
I agree.
B
Yeah, I would. There are things that I would not eat out of a can.
A
Any meat.
B
Yo, did you ever see the Tick Tock? There's this, like, food reviewer on TikTok and she reviewed. They sell burgers in a can. Here you go. This is for you.
A
That's disgusting, dude.

B
Oh, we got noise. Oh. Oh, shut up the volume, dude.
C
Where she pulls it out? Where does she pull.
A
Oh, my God. This is disgusting.
C
Oh, was that it?
B
Where she opens it and pulls it out?
C
Is it wet?
B
Well, she has to, like, heat it. That's how you heat it up. So you put it in, like, boiling water to heat up the contents. That's a giant fucking fat burger. That's a fat burger. Shout out to this girl. What's her name? M. Emmy made.
A

A
It's got pants on.
B
Pants. Pants on the burger, dude.
A
I'm disgusted by this. Oh, my God.
B
That is bad.
A
I thought it would look worse. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I thought it would look worse.
B
That bro in a can, though. Like, there's nothing. There's no one. Would you. How much for you to try it?
A
Not too much.
B
500 bucks, easily. You'll try it for 500 bucks.
A
Take a bite.
C
Yes. Yes.
A
Well, we have a can.
B
Yeah, I couldn't. I'm sorry. Whatever. That mystery throwing up.
A
I know that. Yeah. Would take a bite of that, and he'd be like, oh.
B
Oh, man.
A
I love it.
B
It's so easy. It's so easy.
A
It's so scary.
B
No, but I've never been hammered by a hammer and chisel for my back.
A
Yeah, I know. Me neither.
B
But, like, I. They put this thing on me to, like, check the density or whatever of something, and it was a little hammering machine.
A
And it hammered your spine.
B
It hammered my. Yeah, he got hammed right from the back.
A
Right.
B
You know.
A
Wow.
B
That would actually.
A
Would feel like.
B
It wouldn't be bad. I wasn't a big fan of it.
A
You ever take a. What are those called? Like a theragun.
B
Yeah.
A
And you just, like, put it on your head.
B
Oh, yeah.
A
Head shakes. And then it gets itchy.
B
Yeah.
A
What is.
B
And then my head gets itchy.
A
I'm like, this head, and I'm like. And I'm like, this is me in an earthquake.
B
I love doing that. Yeah. No, I don't think. I don't think it's that intense.
A
No, but it's. It feels weird.
B
Are you worried about her earthquakes?
A
No. I mean, yo, I was mad scared with the one we had here.
B
Yeah.
A
I was like, in my apartment, you.
B
Live and you live a couple floors up.
A
I live a couple floors up. So it would have been, as they say in show business, dead. Like, my TV started going, and I literally was like, I'm gonna Fall into the water now, like that's scary, bro.
B
Do you think? But if you fall in the water, you just. You'll swim.
A
Yeah, I won't.
B
Why not?
A
Because I'm falling. I'm inside of a building that's collapsing into the East River.
B
Just ride a piece of like concrete down.
A
Not everything is a Fast and Furious.
B
I know.
A
Okay. I can't.
B
I don't like, I'm not a big fan of those. Not a big fan of those movies. So don't. I'm. Don't say that. If I'm a big defender of Fast and Furious. Unless Vin Diesel wants to put us in one and pay us a couple dozen million.
A
A couple dozen million?
B
Yeah.
A
I haven't seen one since like number two.
B
I've never watched one. I've never watched one and I.
A
And it's never seen a Fast and Furious.
B
I've never seen one.
A
Is this one of those things you refuse now?
B
No, when I was a kid, I refused because our friend got hit by a drag racer. Because those movies used to be about drag racing and now they're just superhero movies. Now they are full on like people just going into space with a Honda Accord.
A
Yeah. How is that?
B
That's not.
A
It's like we're gonna take this Dodge Ram, it's like clearly sponsored. We're gonna take this Dodge Ram built 0% APR and we're going to drive it off a cliff and land it in a plane that's going to space.
B
All right, listen up, agents. We need to figure out how this group of bikers got this Dodge Charger with 3500 down, 0% APR for 36 month lease. You know, through the cities of Brazil.
A
You know, we're gonna drive this Dodge Ram through the sewers of the city.
B
Yeah. It's like, bro, what the fuck is this? Come on. All right everyone. If anyone else knows how to get America's favorite muscle car, the Mustang, the Ford Mustang, over this broken bridge which has been JP certified and gotten the. What's that fucking award thing that they do? The JP Power and Associates certified as the best muscle car best three years in a row.
A
Three years in a row. How are we gonna land this award winning car three years in a row? And running on a boat.
B
Yeah.
A
Yeah. Oh man.
B
If only we had some getty premium leaded unleaded gasoline which is always the cheapest on the market.
A
If only we definitely could get it.
B
For this 1967 Shelby GT. All right, dude, chill out, Vin. We see through it.
A
We're all family.
B
I love when movies do that, when the product placement is so ridiculous.
A
Yeah.
B
Like, I think it was, like, more intense movie.
A
And he's like, hold on, let me take a drink of a Pepsi Max. You're like, all right, guy. Like, what are we doing here?
B
This moment calls for an ice cold drink of the Rocky Mountain Coors Light. And they, like, hold it up like this.
A
Yeah.
B
And they drink it with the logo facing out.
A
How you doing? Bartender, can I have the banquet, beer, chores? No light. All right, listen up.
B
The only way we can get through this mob of bad guy drivers is if we're fueled by the champagne of beers. Miller High life.
A
True, bro.
B
They. I hate when movies do that because it just completely takes me out the movie.
A
You know what? I hate when movies say the name of the movie in the movie. I hate when they do that.
B
Oh. I like if it makes sense. Like, it's. It's different. If it's like, I don't even.
A
But it's like, I like when they do it and it's like, clearly supposed to be, like, funny or something.
B
Like Time machine.
A
Yeah. Where he's like. It's almost like a hot tub time machine.
B
Yeah.
A
Or like. But like, I hate when it's like a serious movie and it's like. Oh, you know, they call him the Raven, and it's like. That's the name of the movie.
B
Yeah, I know. I hate when it's something, like, obscure, and it's like one of these movies that, like, you can't. You don't know why it's called that. You know what I mean? Like, it'll, like, the movie will just be called. It'll be like a crime thriller. And the movies called, like, you know, cream Cheese Sandwich. And then it's just. Yeah, like, just something like that.
A
Don't fuck with the cats.
B
Well, no, that makes sense. That's a documentary.
A
Yeah.
B
About a guy that fucked with cats.
A
Did he. I can't remember what happened.
B
Oh, yeah, he did. Oh, I thought he just killed Luca Magnotta. No, he. He killed. He graduated. A human. At a certain point.
A
Yeah.
B
Yeah, but he started with cats.
A
That's right.
B
And it was not sick, dude.
A
Yeah.
B
It's not that documentary.
A
We're not supportive of him.
B
Fuck you, Luca Magnotta. The hell? What are you, an Italian dessert?
A
Yeah.
B
Get out of here.
A
Luca Magnotta.
B
Too much. Too much. Plugs. He's getting free plugs on a weekly episode.
A
You said his name.
B
You said the. Don't fuck with cats.
A
I give an example of a doc.
B
Of a. I was just saying, like a movie that has like an obscure title. You can't like make the connection. Yeah, you know, TV shows do that a lot.
A
Yeah, bro. Do you remember? You probably don't know.
B
And they'll just be like. It'll be like a mop hit. And he's just like, please don't shoot me. Like, there's like a gun point at his head and he's like, my. My first memory. A cream cheese sandwich for my dad. And it's just like. That's what you based them. Like, that's what you name the movie off of Marty Scorsese. I love you. Put me in your movie. That's it. I don't got anything bad to say about Marty.
A
Imagine being.
B
Could you imagine. Yo, do you hear his next movies making?
A
It's like a podcasters. Because that would be awesome.
B
Criminal podcast. I know two guys with Joe Pesci.
A
This edge.
B
Not good.
A
Not good.
B
All right. I'm sorry. Yeah, but no. It's like the mafia movie, but in Hawaii. And the rock is like a moth. Like a Hawaiian organized crime boss. Leonardo DiCaprio.
A
There's gonna be explosions and guns in that one. You can.
B
I don't know about explosions, bro.
A
If the rock is in the movie, things are exploding. That's just a fact. There's no. Not explosion.
B
I'm just saying this. Listen, Dwayne, Mr.
A
The DJ is what they call DJ.
B
Well, I'm not in on. I'm not like that yet.
A
True.
B
I'm not in. You are. You guys are on a first name basis.
A
I think mine expired. I haven't seen that number. I never had his number.
B
Still got his email probably. Let's hit him up. All I'm gonna say is we're giving you this first piece of for free, Dwayne. Okay? Every movie you're in, you need a rock bottom someone. It's done. It's like. It's like Tarantino with feet. Yeah, it's like.
A
And the N word, apparently.
B
Well, I don't like that. I don't like that one. I just want to make that very clear. Tarantino would feet. Yep. Fucking. What was the guy's name? What was the guy directed Psycho. What was his name? Fat dude.
C
Oh, Hitchcock.
B
Hitchcock with being in little cameos in his movie, you know.
A
Oh, M. Night Shyamalan, also M. Night Shyamalan with.
B
He also cameos in his movies. You know what else? What other director trademarks are there? Sam Raimi. He likes eyes. Just make Your own. Like, this is my thing, that no matter what movie you're in, someone has to get rock bottomed. It could be like the Fault in our stars. 3. The stars are also at fault.
A
Yeah. And then you and you.
B
Rock bottom star, A planet.
A
Fault in Our Stars, starring Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
B
He's rock bottoming. Like, it's amazing.
A
Jesus.
B
That'S hilarious. You know?
A
Can you imagine?
B
You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? But, like, make it your thing, your. Your trademark, your actor trademark.
A
What an insane thing.
B
Yeah. So, hey, you know, have you seen.
A
That movie Fault in Our Stars?
B
No.
A
Have you ever seen A Walk to Remember?
B
No. That's Mandy Moore and the other guy who's walking and remembering. Mandy Moore.
A
They're both walking. One of them is remembering the only thing I remember. Like, she had, like, a list of things she wanted to do.
B
Cute.
A
And she was like, I want to be in two places at one time. And then he, like, drove her somewhere, and then he's, like, brought her here. And he's like, stand here, stand there. It's like, this is the state lines. You're in two places at one time. And I was like, yo, that is so fire.
B
Oh, really?
A
Yeah. I was like, that is.
B
I mean, what else would she have meant?
A
I think that she.
B
That's the only answer.
A
That's.
B
See, that's the thing. I don't like that there's. There's no other answer. I want to be in two places at the same time. Well, you can't. Mandy More. I think there's one very literal thing, and you could have done it decades ago if you've wanted to.
A
I think that she meant she was like, you know, like, on this list. I don't know. I don't remember the rest of the movie. I think she goes down. I don't know.
B
Well, the walk was so memorable that they, you know.
A
I mean, what makes it more memorable? The only thing that you can do when someone dies is remember. So.
B
I know I tend to stay away from, like, movies like that where it's just like, you know, like, they fall in love, and it's like, someone's sick, someone's sick. And then it's just like, you know, it's gonna happen, you know?
A
Yeah, what's gonna happen is I'm gonna cry on my couch.
B
I don't, like. I don't, like, put myself in those predicaments.
A
I cried recently. Why was I crying? I saw something, and I was like, ah, damn, it got me so bad. I was on a plane.
B
Oh, you were watching a movie. You were watching.
A
Yo, I was sitting next to this guy on the plane. Plane.
B
Oh, you hide the cry from the guy?
A
Of course I was hiding the cry from the guy. Well, he was also asleep. He was an old yo, and he wouldn't shut the up. We had a flight attendant, and she was. She looked like. She was like, 23. Like, pretty girl.
B
And he just wouldn't.
A
Would not leave her alone.
B
Bro, old people, no one wants to talk to you.
A
It's. It's honest.
B
No one wants. And, like, I love how they do it because they're just like, I'm gonna be so nice, and, like, she's gonna show me attention, dude.
A
Like, how many flights have you been on today? And she's like, oh, this is my fourth four. It's like, oh, you must be real tired. I'm like, you can't say that. You. It's just bad.
B
She. Nothing's gonna come of it. Leave these poor fucking women alone, please. Old people. Old men. Leave a. Leave us. I'm not at all. I'm not a woman. Just leave them alone, dude. They don't want to talk to you.
A
Yeah, dude. And then he was going off, and he was like. He goes, oh, you know, I travel all the time. Like, I travel all the time. Whoa, dude, it gets way worse. So then he says to her, he was, like, keeping up the conversation. You could tell that she didn't want to be in it. She was, like, giving short answers and stuff. And she was going, oh, wow. Like, stuff like that. Like, oh, wow, that's crazy. She. So he kept going like, oh, I travel all the time. He goes, I. Sometimes I go to Qatar just on a pin. That's what he said.
B
Wow.
A
I was like, first of all, that expression is wrong on a pit. On a pin. I go. I go to Qatar on a pin.
B
Drop of a dime is what I think he.
A
And he was like, yeah, the drop of a pin or some.
B
That also doesn't make sense.
A
Drop of a dime, whatever. The. You're dropping something, and then you're in Qatar. So he was like, saying that, and he's like, yeah, dude, that. He's like, they don't even give me a big heads up. I just get on the plane or whatever. And this was a flight from D.C. to New York. So it was short. It was like 40 minutes. So he's like, this. This is nothing. This is, like, obvious. No, I think she said that. She goes, oh, wow. So like, this flight is probably nothing. He goes, honestly, going to London is like going to the grocery store. And I was like, how do I kick open the window to get out of this?
B
Oh, yeah, no, you really wanted to.
A
Just be like, bang.
B
See ya.
A
Crawl through the little window and jump into the engine.
B
Gotcha. Yeah, that's pretty bad.
A
How do I get out of this conversation? It was driving me crazy.
B
I love how now I. You know, as teenagers, you do that because you have no sense of how to fucking talk to people. Because life is awkward as an old dumb idiot. If I'm doing that. If I'm just like, you know how sick I am. I take flights at. And they don't feel long.
A
You suck.
B
The ultimate way.
A
If I was her, I would have turned around and be like, ladies and gentlemen, there is a man on the plane who doesn't care about long flights. It's very easy for him. Let's give him a round of applause.
B
Oh, I would have picked up that phone and I would have said, ladies and gentlemen, there's a man in row 28, seat B that has a gun. Go kill him. Get him the fuck off of this plane. Because that is so.
A
It was annoying. It was annoying for me, and I wasn't even involved.
B
That's.
A
I really don't. I just don't want to talk to.
C
Sometimes watching people flirt is real tough.
A
It's brutal because it's like, bro, what are you hoping to get out of this conversation? She's 23, and it was like, one thing if, like, if there's, like, old people that are. That are super nice and actually having a conversation, asking questions and blah, blah, blah. Like, you can tell this dude, though, was just giving like, bro, if I.
B
Heard him say going to London is basically like going to the grocery store, I would have cocked back and sent my foot through his chest so goddamn.
A
Hard I wanted to back and send my head through the window. I really thought about it.
B
You should have.
A
What I started thinking about, actually, because that was an actual thought that popped in my head. I was like, how hard would it be for me to kick this thing out? Honestly? Do you think you could break it? Because there's like a plastic thing and then the actual thing. I'm getting through the plastic.
B
Let's. So if it can withstand the air pressure, you think your fucking chicken legs are going through it? Joey, this thing is made to fly 500 miles per hour at 30,000ft. You think one guy that lifts one time a week is gonna put his foot through it?
A
Frank, we're up to 3, 4 nowadays.
B
Squats 1 time a week, if that. No. Yeah.
A
I don't know.
B
I'll tell you this. When I. When I have sat window and I see that little pinhole at the bottom, I freak out because I'm like, I know it's meant to be there, but it doesn't seem like it's supposed to be there.
A
Do you know it's a myth that if you just, like, open the exit window, no one's getting sucked out? Not a thing.
B
Are you sure?
A
Yeah.
B
Why not? Because of the pressure. They adjust the pressure. It's pressurized.
A
No. There was also a video recently where the fucking exit door blew open and people were sitting there in their seats like, hey, fighting the wind.
B
Do me a favor.
A
Yeah.
B
Stop with these scary plane stories. Talk, dude. Please. I know, I know, I know. I don't need to be reminded of it. And don't.
A
Don't look up if it's an actual.
B
No, no, please. All right, go ahead. I'm gonna close my eyes and just give each other, like, nods, like I.
C
Was gonna look up if you get sucked out of a plane window.
A
Yeah. You can't, bro. We're thinking about people who are skydiving.
B
Let me be very honest with you. I think about every possibility.
A
Frank. Think about army. Army.
B
They're at 10,000ft. They're 10,000ft when they skydive. Difference.
A
You're going the same speed.
B
There is a difference. At going 35,000ft up, Joey.
A
It's extremely unlikely, and planes are designed to prevent this from happening. Though it has happened in rare cases.
B
Rarely. Joey. There's a difference, pressure wise, at 10,000ft and 30,000ft.
A
Dude, I'm sure there is, but it does.
B
It doesn't happen unless in rare cases.
A
What will actually happen is everyone's gonna get really cold because it's cold, chilly up there.
B
I love when. I love when you click the interactive map and it tells you. And it's like, outside, it's negative 54 degrees. And I'm just like, oh, it's chilly.
A
You know, it's such a stupid thing to put on a plane because, like, I don't. Like, what am I gonna do with that? You know, the temperature or, like, the tailwinds. Like, dude, I'm not flying this thing. What do I care about?
B
Well, they like to be as transparent as possible. I appreciate that.
A
Tell us if this is actually chicken that you're serving me.
B
What about they don't feel? How would you feel if you Got on a plane and it was see through, like, it was like you could see the floor.
A
We do have ads and I'm gonna, I'm gonna get to that. I'm gonna get to that. Cuz I have a strong feeling about that for sure. We're gonna start off with Squarespace here. Squarespace is gonna help you build your website. Okay.

All right. I asked you a question. Would you get, would you fly in a plane if it was see through? Whether it be the walls and the.
A
Floor or just the floor would only do that. If I was flying to, like, Toronto.
B
Like, a short flight.
A
Yeah.
B
Like, not a. Not.
A
I think after a while, I'm gonna psych myself out and go nuts and be very scared, bro.
B
I wouldn't. I wouldn't be able to walk.
A
I didn't even think about walking, bro.
B
Could you have to, like, it's like that thing. You ever been to, like, a fun house? And it's like, you go in the tunnel, and the light. There's like, a light tube that's moving, but you're not moving. But, like, for some reason, your brain is convinced that you are. So, like, you feel like you're going like this, and you're freak out and drop. That's what I would feel like.
A
It is. Yes and no. I think that all planes should have access to, like, a cockpit camera. Like, I want to see.
B
I don't want to see what's going on in there.
A
What?
C
I like that.
A
I love watching videos of, like, in the cockpit, planes landing. That's so cool.
B
What if. And we're giving big plane big ideas right now. So these are all copywritten.
A
And they're watching.
B
And they're watching always. Trademark copyright. That's how it works. What if planes had, like, a special room that, like, you can go sit in for, like, five minutes? And it's like. You know how in, like, Star wars, the Millennium Falcon has, like, a turret? Oh, you can get below, and it's, like, below, and it's. Well, you know, you're not shooting, but, like, you're like. It's just like a. Like, you're sitting on, like, a swivel chair, and it's like a dome bubble, and you could just, like, see.
A
Would you do that? You wouldn't do that.
B
Oh, no, I wouldn't. No, because I would. I would. I would. While I'm going down there, tighten the nuts and bolts. Yeah, I wouldn't be able to do.
A
It, but that would be cool for takeoff.
B
Or. What if I'm just having all these great.
A
Let me ask you a question.
B
Well, let me have my thing first.
A
I think I know the answer anyway.
B
The answer is no. If you're asking what I'm gonna do on a plane, I'm gonna sit there, not move.
A
That's not what I was gonna ask, but I already.
B
What if they had, like, a little contraption? It's like a slide, and, like, you can like, lay face down on the bottom of the plane, and, like, there's.
A
Like, eye holes, and you can see you're getting nuts.
B
I am.
A
This isn't a playground. What else do you want? A sprinkler? This is ridiculous. A slide?
B
A pool In a plane. Does that exist?
A
Maybe on Emirates? Yeah.
B
We don't know. I mean, they have showers.
A
Yeah. I was gonna say, would you ever. And I know you wouldn't, but what would it take for you to.
B
The answer is money.
A
I know that, but I'm saying what would.
B
The answer is money.
A
What would it. But is. Do you. Is there a price on. And like, a realistic one. Okay. Where you would get in the back of an F16, because that's a thing.
B
And like, you can go. And they could go mock speed.
A
Well, no, they probably wouldn't do that, but those go like, straigh straight up.
B
I know. I'm gonna say this. Yeah, I will do it. I will do it if there is no camera on me. Because have you ever seen people go and, like, what happens to their face? They're hitting like six GS, then they become like.
A
Yeah.
B
I don't even know how the face does that. No camera on me. How much would I get paid to do that?
A
Yeah. Like, if. So let me. Let me say a number, because you're gonna go nuts with it.
B
No, no, I'm thinking realistic.
A
Okay.
B
I'm thinking, honestly, what if someone was like, how long? How long?
A
How long what?
B
How long am I up there?
A
Oh, I don't, like, just be very clear minutes or something.
B
That's an eternity.
A
Is it? I don't know how long those are. I'm sure people do them, bro.
B
15 minutes. Do me a favor. Sit and do nothing for 15 minutes and tell me how long that feels.
A
You're on a plane. It's so the same thing.
B
It's still scary.
A
I know, but you're making it seem like you don't do that. You sit on plane.
B
All right, give me a realistic price.
A
60 grand.
B
Oh, yeah, I'll do it for that. I was going. I was going way lower. I'll be honest. My. My realistic price was lower, but, yeah, 60 grand. I'm cool with that.
C
It's not really a set time.
A
Yeah, well, like 45, 30.
B
I would say lowest I would go. Would be 25.
A
Okay. But you would do it for that?
B
For 20.
A
That would be so.
B
For 25 grand. Scary if I flew in an F16 for 15 minute. Yeah, I actually know. I would say 30 grand is the lowest I do to 2 grand a minute.
A
We're. We're talking. We're. We're honestly. This is not outside the realm of possibility.
B
Are you gonna pay me to do this? Because then I'm going to increase my price.
A
No, no, no, it's not, bro. Me, I'm not paying.
B
I know, but who could pay us to do that?
A
This sounds like something like Red Bull would do.
B
Bro, if Red bull paid me 60 grand to go in an F16, I would do it.
A
Not so scared.
B
I would be very scared. I would be like.
A
It would just going straight up, and I'd be like, oh, my God.
B
And then they do that thing where they, like.
A
I will say this, as scary as it is, they got eject buttons, brother.
B
Still scary.
A
That's even scarier.
B
Even scarier. What do you mean? They have eject buttons? As if that's supposed to calm me down at least.
A
If it' like, yo, the thing is spinning. It's like, bro, we just eject.
B
Yeah, but, brother, just because it's spinning this way, if you eject, it could still get you. What's getting me something, Bro, if it's spinning like this and you eject this way, by the time you might not. You might get hit by something.
A
Whatever.
C
They're designed to fall like a feather.
B
Yeah. Are they?
A
Yeah.
B
Yeah, bro. Then why do they always go down like this in the movies?
C
Huh?
A
Bro, movies? They're fake. People are getting sucked out of planes, for God's sakes.
B
Why did we pick this episode to talk about this?
A
I don't want this to happen, but I. I feel like I would be obligated to do it because I think that, like, I saw a video of someone doing that, and I'm like, yo, that's insane.
B
You have a.
A
So scared.
B
You have a Red Bull connection.
A
Yeah, don't remind me.
B
Why don't you hit.
A
I hope they're not.
B
Why don't you hit them up and say, yo, we'll pay you guys.
A
No, 50k each.
B
If you go in this F16 and be.
A
So you're.
B
I mean, yeah, you're doing.
A
You would do it.
C
50K.
A
Yeah.
C
I want to be included on that.
A
Okay.
B
So we all get in there, we hold hands.
A
You can only fit one in one.
B
All right. Sorry, Aunt. Sorry, Joe. I'm getting it right. I don't know, dude.
A
We would take turns.
B
But also, here's my serious question. Where's this thing taken off from? If it's taken off from, like, a carrier in the middle of the ocean?
A
Do you not.
B
My. My price has tripled. Yeah. Quadrupled even. If you're gonna put me in the middle of the Ocean. On a boat with a flat top like a pancake. The Pankoken.
A
Yeah. No, I'm not doing that either. Too short of a. I'm not landing on there, that's for certain.
B
I'm not. I'm barely. Barely able to function with the thought of it.
A
Yo, you know what else? This is something you got to think about also. If you do something like this. They're going upside down. They go upside down.
B
Here's my thing.
A
They barrel roll, and they do back.
B
No barrel roll, bro. Where's that from? Where's that from?
A
I don't know if I could do it. Now that I'm talking about it.
B
Do a barrel roll.
C
Oh, Fox.
A
Reno.
B
No, you're. That. You're. There it is. Star Fox. Which one?
C
Yeah. Okay.
B
64.
A
In a video game conversation.
B
You remember that, Pepe? Like, no barrel roll. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah, but I. I think you.
A
You would have.
B
I will tell you this. I will do that way sooner than I get in a submarine. Way.
A
Way. Dude, really?
B
What? Yeah. I hate both. I'm very cool.
A
Yeah. I would get in a plane first.
B
Right where I am standing on the ground.
A
Yeah.
B
But I. I'd much quicker get in a plane than go in a submarine.
A
Can you imagine being in a fucking F16? That bitch goes upside down.
B
Nah, bro.
A
My head is like.
B
I mean, I've been on roller coasters. I've been upside down.
A
You're in a rocket ship. It's different.
B
Top speed, 1500 miles per hour. Excuse me, bro, you can get. You could get.
A
But that's the thing. You can't do that to me, bro. I'm gonna pass out.
B
Well, I don't think they can go top speed for very long.
C
No, I don't think so.
B
I think it's just, like, a big boom, and then they're done.
C
They go up very hot.
A
Yo. What?
C
55,000Ft.
A
First of all, that.
B
No double knob, brother. Yeah. You eject at 55,000ft, you're not making it to the ground. You'll be.
A
Wait. You'll be ice.
B
You will be ice, brother.
A
Cruising speed is the same as a plane, so that makes sense, bro. Going 1500 miles an hour. How do you train for that?
B
I don't know.
A
This is.
B
I would. Here's what I would do if we had the opportunity to go to, like.
A
What, a crazy job? Oh.
B
Like, I wouldn't. And I wouldn't travel for this, because it sounds miserable. But, like, those things where they're like space or, like, fighter jet Training simulators where they put you in a thing and you're just.
A
They do the G force on you.
B
I just don't want a camera on me. I don't need to see what my face.
A
That would be up, dude. They'd be like, all right, 1G, 2G. We pass it out.
B
Yeah, I wouldn't. I don't know, cuz you have to.
A
Work on your breathing whenever you watch.
B
Viewers and they're like, well, yeah, cuz you can't catch your breath. Dude, I've been on roller coasters that are going so fast that it's hard to breathe. I've put my head out of the window of a car when it's going very fast and it's hard to breathe. Have a dog. Yes, I have.
A
Yeah, I've done it too. I mean, yo, that's scary. I don't want to talk about anymore. I don't want that to happen. Anyone watch. I don't want to have it.
B
Stop this.
A
What?
B
Get this shit off of our fucking computer. Get this shit off of our fucking computer.
A
It's the article of the fucking Toronto. All right, Frank, let me ask you.
B
This question, please just X out.
A
And was asking this question beforehand and it was if you could curse someone you don't like with a minor inconvenience for the rest of your life, what would it be like? A minor inconvenience? I wrote some answers here.
B
Oh, you have? You have? How many did you write?
A
I wrote four.
B
What the hell?
A
These are just four things that would drive me. Fuck.
B
I would. I mean immediately. The first thing I'm thinking of is wet socks. Like every day they have wet socks for three hours of the day.
C
You can't give time.
B
That's why it's minor. If I do all day, three hours.
C
Yeah, I guess so. I guess that's minor. That's minor.
B
That's minor.
A
I put lose your wallet once a day, I would lose my mind.
B
Yeah, but you're guaranteed to find it. If the curse is that you lose it every day, that means that you end up finding it and then get it back for the next day to live.
A
It's not about finding it. It's just about like I'm about to leave and that's when I noticed that I don't have my wallet.
B
And now I'm like, oh, it's like at an inconvenient time.
A
Yeah. Who's looking for the wallet when they don't need it?
B
I mean, I always like to know where my wallet is.
A
You're in your house and you just randomly get up and look for your wallet.
B
I know. I just make sure I put it where it's supposed to go.
A
Like, I mean, that's weird.
B
Why? I always have the same spot for my wallet and I just every now and then glance over, just make sure it's still there. Because I got kids and they got sticky fingers.
A
Oh, that makes.
B
They got. They got sticky fingers. And I have. I once. This is like recently I was like hanging out. We were at the house, like, doing something. I think I was like, just like something. And I hear Ruby running around and Maeve is like chasing her. And I hear Becca or someone say, like, give her the keys. And I'm like, if those are my car keys, like, fuck. You know what I mean? Because that would have been a problem. And it was. And thank God I.
A
Why would there be such a huge problem?
B
Brought a fine car keys today are this big. Oh, they're not like back in the day where you had like 30 keys on a key ring.
A
They would have hit them in like.
B
A. Bro, if those kids hide that car key, I'm never, I'm never ever finding it ever again.
A
Yeah, I also have. So this is like a pretty niche one I have. Can't turn off the slow closed captioning on the tv. So like, you know when you're like in like a barbershop or something and they have the ones that kind of like type out, but they're always mad behind.
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I.
A
That drives me so insane, bro. I'd rather give up TV for the rest of my life.
B
I'd rather. First of all, I hate subtitles. I don't. I like, I do not like them because my eye just like, it just goes for that. And now it's been go like people have been making fun of it on Tick Tock but, like, it will fucking prematurely spoil whatever you're watching. Sometimes, like, that's happened, legit has happened to me where it'll be like so and so is going to reveal that they're the murderer or whatever. And they'll just be like, well, I have something to tell you. And at the bottom it'll say, it's me, I did it. And I'm like, well, fucking there it goes.
A
Yeah, I. I won't use clothes. I won't use captions or subtitles. I should say if it's like something with comedy. Because I'm like, this will kill. Like the punchline if I like read it so I don't watch it. For that. But like, like, I just re. Watch Game of Thrones. I don't know what the. Going on most of the time.
B
I gotta, like, read this. Yeah. That's why I can't watch that show anymore. Yeah, I watched it once. I'm good forever.
A
But I feel like that's a good one. Like, if you. If that's always on the tv, I would go nuts, bro. Especially when there's sports on. There's no way they can catch up. The captions are 10 minutes ago. Bananas.
C
And sometimes the caption blocks the score.
A
That too.
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I agree.
A
The captions are going over the basket. I'm like, there was one.
B
I was watching something recently and the subtitles were on and it was like, the subtitles were over. Like, what the character was looking at. Like, it was like a reveal. They were like. But you couldn't see it because it just said like, so and so stares aggressively. And I was just like, what the. I don't like them. How about. How about if I could curse someone? Anytime they. They drink something, it gets that, like, wrong pipe and it like, tastes like that in their mouth forever. Oh, like, not forever, but like, for a couple minutes.
A
So like you aspirate or whatever.
B
Yeah. And then it just tastes like orange juice for the next hour.
A
I just thought of a great one. Whenever you eat rice, you get one of those kernels stuck.
B
Oh, my God.
A
Oh, my God.
B
In your sinus. In your sinus. What you're referencing.
A
Yeah, yeah.
B
You never had that. If you, like, talk while you're eating rice or a carrot for some reason, it'll, like, go up into your sinus. And then you have to like.
A
Yeah, you have to, like, try and really get it out. It's so annoying. Another one I have is motion activated. Things don't work on the first 10 tries. So if you're trying to flush a toilet, you're just.
B
I don't wave in a toilet usually, but I hear what you're saying.
A
I put my hand. I think hide and seek with it over it. Then I go like this.
B
The worst one is the. Like, the sinks are bad. The soap dispensers are way, way worse.
A
I think sinks are worse than soap.
B
I think. I don't. That's not even my least favorite type of sink. My least favorite is the buttons that you have to hit. And then, like, it's not like the timing of the water dispersion is not quick. Like, it's too quick, actually. So you have to like, you know, like you're fucking, you know, doing surgery.
A
Motion activated shit. Not working on the first.
B
What do you got? What are you thinking?
C
What about every time you finally sit down or lay down and get comfortable, you have to pee?
A
Yeah, that sucks.
B
To, like, the initial within the first minute of getting comfortable.
C
Yeah, like.
B
But then it'll never stop. You'll pee always. Because then you get up and then you go to get comfortable again and it happens again. So you'll always have to pee. Gotcha.
A
What about your farts are always loud?
C
Okay.
A
Every single one.
B
There are people that will be pumped by that. I would. That would be a major inconvenience for me.
A
Pumped by, like, every time you actually fart fart, like a fart is leaving your butt. People can hear it. That is.
B
People love that. People love that.
A
People love that.
B
There are farters out there, dude.
A
Yeah, I'm one of them. But not like in pub.
B
I mean, that would be a major inconvenience for me.
A
Like, that would be an inconvenience for anybody to be like, you're in like a meeting at. If you gotta pass the gas, you know, that would be tough to deal with. I would hate that. I also have your phone battery doesn't stay alive for more than two hours.
B
That's a major.
A
Yeah, that's major. All right. What about four hours major?
C
I think that's too big.
B
Anything less than 10 hours, major.
C
What about this? Every time you plug in your phone to charge it and you come back, you accidentally didn't plug it in, you know?
B
Yeah, but then you'll never plug it in.
A
I got one. I got one. That's a minor inconvenience too.
C
Crazy, I think.
B
No, I'm not. You're. I'm using your logic. It's just like every time you do this, and like, then anytime you try to plug it in, it gets unplugged.
A
It's true. It seems major. I have a good one. Every single phone charger that you have is that up. One that has to be in a perfect way so that you can, like. You gotta, like, fold it and put your.
B
Oh, my God.
A
That's Would be horrible.
B
That would really suck. Or every pair of earbuds that you have fall out of your ears.
A
Oh, my God.
B
Yeah. Like, you can't ever. Like, they always. There's always one that falls out for no reason. You can switch the size of the silicone. It doesn't matter.
A
Dude, do you know that I had a pair. I forgot what it was, but I went on a run one Day. And it popped out of my ear because it was really windy and like there it was small, it was like this. It wasn't like a apple one or whatever. And it hit the floor and started rolling in the street and I took one step towards it and a car dropped.
B
I can't wear it. I can't wear. The only headphones I could wear are the muffs or the ones that go like in and around your ears.
A
The apple ones don't fit for you.
B
No, not literally. I've never wore a pair of earbuds that like, they'll fit, they'll fit. And then I don't know if it's just cuz my ear, My earth oily like my ears are so oily, but they. One always pops out. Always, always, always, always.
A
Yeah, the ones that like the only. The apple ones that are like, they have like the stick, you know? Yeah. But other ones that are just like, they just go in your ear and the whole thing is in your ear. None of those ever fit me.
B
Oh, I just got a really good one. What? Every food, no matter what it is, whether it be drink, food, anything comes at room temperature. It's never cold, it's never hot.
A
That feels mage.
B
Why is that mage?
C
You're saying they can never enjoy a meal again?
B
No, they can heat it up, but anytime they get it, it's immediate, it's room temperature. Whether it be ice cream, whether it be steak, whether it be coffee, whether it be a cold, a beer. So like they can still chill it themselves or heat it up. But no matter what, anytime they go to consume it, the whole, whether it be the whole plate or drink or cup or whatever is room temperature.
C
What about every time you want to order a drink? Your first initial drink that you want? They never have.
B
Oh, that's a good one.
A
I hate that.
B
That's a good. But then I, but then I would just be like, I don't really want this drink and that's why I would order it. You know what I mean?
C
Do you see what you're doing there?
A
What are you talking.
C
I don't know this curse exists.
A
I don't. Yeah, you're.
B
You're under the impression that you. I've been cursed.
C
Yes.
B
Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. Okay. All right. Every restaurant you go to, they have QR code menus.
C
I actually know that's annoying.
B
That is the worst in the world. Duh.
A
QR code menus.
B
Oh my God, I hate it.
A
I don't dislike it.
B
Bro, I'm here. Wine me Dine me. Don't. Don't make me do work. Don't make me scan and sit there and go like this. Give me a menu.
A
I don't know.
B
I don't make it look appealing.
A
I like that because as soon as I sit down, I can get a menu. Like some.
B
Well, you're also. But the answer shouldn't be that it's now a QR code. They should just, when they sit you down, have the menus in their hand and give it to you immediately.
A
Usually they do that. But, like, there are some restaurants that, like, they'll seat you and then someone will come over.
B
And I understand, like, airports where it's like you scan and it's like your seat and whatever. But if I go to a restaurant.
A
I enjoy that a lot.
B
I don't mind it.
A
I like that. I like order and someone comes right to my fucking.
B
But if I go to a restaurant and they're just like, here's our scan, this QR code for our menu. I'm. I'm immediately upset. Immediately. Because I. Then I have to zoom in and I miss out what's over there, and I have to zoom out and everything is too small. I don't like it. I'm furious by it.
A
This may be a major one. You guys can be the judge of that. But, like, anytime you open something that's like a soda or a beer, that thing breaks.
B
Oh, oh, the top.
A
So you have to, like, push it down or something.
C
I don't think that's major. I think that's a good one.
A
Yeah, that is a good one.
B
Yeah, I agree.
A
That feels sucks.
C
Every time you try to open up a wine bottle, the cork breaks.
B
Oh, that would be who you're talking to. You're talking to Vino Volo over here. It's like those, like, wine stores.
A
All right, you guys think of more. I have some sponsors for today. You guys think of more, though.

B
I'm trying to think of more. I think one that I thought of is that anytime the person has a popsicle and it melts, like, very quickly, gets all over your hand, gets everywhere.
A
I was gonna say anything that you have that's, like, crunchy explodes, like.
B
Oh, I was gonna say the opposite. Like, you're expecting it to be crunchy, but it's just, like, stale and soft, you know? Like. You know what I'm talking about? Like a chip. Like a stale chip.
A
Oh. Oh, I got a good one. Every time you go to a bar and you try to order a drink from a bartender, it takes, like, 12 minutes.
C
Oh, that's so bad.
A
Oh.
B
Oh, my God. Yeah, dude, I got a.
C
Every time you wipe after taking a poop, your finger slips through the paper.
A
Disgusting.
B
Yeah, it's gross as hell. Every time you piss, you splash on your pants.
A
Oh, I feel like that happens to you.
C
Or every time. Every time you wash your hands, there's no paper towels.
A
Yeah, that's annoying. You got to do the pant white thing.
B
Or every time you go to dry your hands, it's a really weak powered, like, air blower. You know what I mean? Like, one that's just like.
A
Yeah, that shit is so annoying.
C
Realistically, what I would give someone I hate probably is they never catch a green light. Always red lights.
B
You know what it is? That's a.
A
That's so major, though.
B
That's a big one. That's a big one.
A
Yeah, I was just. That's every block.
B
I was just gonna say that anytime you're in the car, you hit at least one pothole that makes you go like, oh, fuck. You know. You know, that pot. It doesn't. It not. Doesn't mean it's gonna fuck up your car, but you know when you hit that pothole and you're just like, when I stop driving, I'm gonna check on that. And then. You never do that.
C
Have you ever hit a pothole and your car just went, not today.
B
Yes.
A
Yeah. Yeah, I've hit a pothole. And immediately my tire was like, I'm done.
B
I hit a pothole and my car started smoking.
A
I had. That happened to me. I hit a pothole and I popped my tire on the 4th of July. So getting someone to come and, like, help tow my car and everything took forever.
B
Oh, that's a good one. What if it's, like, on every major holiday, there's. Wherever you have to get. There's Major traffic, yo.
A
Traffic. It would be enough for me to end it. Yeah, I despise traffic.
B
Yeah, I know you.
A
Because I hate being late to stuff. Oh my God. That's probably a great answer to like, if I'm like always like a little late.
B
Oh, I have a good. I have a good one and I have a good one because this is kind of minor, but every time you're in line to do something, it's always cut off right before you're the last one. Like you'll get in but like they'll let in like 20 people and then it's cut off at you and you have to wait again. That bro, I hate that when I'm in a red light and I'm like, alright, this is perfect. I'll make it through on the next screen and then my car is the first one stop. Frank, bro, that drives me bananas.
A
I can't tell you the last time that I actually stopped at a red light. When that's the case, I'm through that bitch. Unless the person in front of me runs the red that I'm like, all right, I'm gonna get hit.
B
There are times where I'm going. I'll tell you this a really like good thing about Jersey that people like you never would have imagined was those are long yellow lights, brother. Those are long yellow lights.
A
Yeah.
B
So you know, cuz like here it's like green. You get two blinks of a yellow and then it's red.
A
Yeah.
B
Not in Jersey. You get like a solid like 12 seconds.
A
12.
B
Maybe not that long. It feels that long.
A
I feel like the whole light is that.
B
It feels that long.
A
Wow.
B
Yeah.
C
What about every time you want to watch a show or a streaming service, you have to re sign in.
A
Oh my God, that's a great one. Brutal.
C
Dude, that, that I. I'll be honest.
B
I'll just not watch. Like I've done that.
A
But you said a good one before. The buffering.
C
Oh, yeah.
A
Oh my God.
C
Like when you're trying to watch a show, it just, it just always buffering. Maybe you get a couple spurts, like every two minutes it starts buffering. That would be.
B
I mean, I guess we could go. We can if we're gonna do media and stuff like that. It's just like anytime you play a video game, like a certain amount of time in it freezes and you have to reboot it up again.
A
Oh, that's pretty bad.
B
Like you don't lose your save progress, it just freezes and you need to redo it.
A
Again, what about.
B
Or anytime you play a video game, there's always an update that's a good one that people that don't play video games might not understand. That one. That was fucking miserable.
A
Every. Every other time that you have to go to an event, you get stuck behind a garbage truck.
B
That's every other time. All right. I guess. I guess you could. Or every sporting event you go to, the team you want loses.
C
Well, actually, I could use that.
B
Yeah. No, but you don't know.
C
After like 20 times. But I can't keep going.
B
I mean, but if you're a Yankee fan, you're never gonna bet the Yankees are gonna lose. You know, you're a Giant fan. I know. Well, right now might be.
A
Yeah, I am hammering them losing.
B
I know, but you know what I'm saying? Like, or for the rest of your life, you'll never see one of your favorite teams win a championship, because that's not major. I mean, I guess for certain people it could be.
A
Could be a reality, but, like.
B
Yeah, I don't think I'll ever see a Jet championship. I don't think I'll ever see that.
A
Oh, all your socks have a hole in them.
B
Your every day is a bad hair day.
A
That feels major.
C
That's pretty major.
A
Really.
C
Yeah, a little bit.
A
Just like a hole in a sock is like.
B
Yeah.
C
It's like, you could deal with that.
B
Every time you put on an item of clothing, you find a stain.
A
Like a little.
B
Like a little stain. Not a crazy one.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
C
Every time you try to throw something in the garbage, you miss.
B
I mean, I can see why that sucks.
A
Yeah. I mean, I feel like I don't do that often enough that that would really bothered.
C
I feel like after the 40th miss, I'd be like, there's something.
A
I'm bad at this.
B
It's gotten to the point when I do stuff like that, I throw it and it'll. It'll, like. Whatever happens, it'll be so unbelievable. It's like I couldn't recreate that if I tried.
A
Yeah.
B
You know, and it. Most the time, it doesn't go in.
C
You always miss phone calls on the first ring.
B
Oh, I don't. I don't care.
C
Like, your mom has to call you twice for you to be able to pick it up.
A
It's kind of a reality.
B
I don't. Yeah, I really don't care about.
A
Except for my mom. I'll pick that up.
B
But.
C
I got just a constant little pebble in your shoe.
A
Yeah, that's annoying.
B
That was tough. Yeah.
A
That's annoying.
B
Every time you, you, you, like you, or someone cuts your nails on one of your fingers, they get a little too close to the skin and they do that thing like where they cut the skin under your nail.
A
Why are you saying. Wait, what are you saying? Someone's cutting your nails?
B
Well, if you go to get like, a manicure or pedicure, you can. You can give these to women, too, or people that do that. Joey.
A
No, but you made it seem like someone's cutting your own nails.
B
Well, if I were to go get a manicure, a pedicure, why wouldn't you.
A
Just say you're cut when you cut your nails?
B
Because then I'll just. If I'll figure it out, every time I do it, I'll be like, all right, I'm never going to do it again.
C
You can never keep your plants alive.
A
That is the world I live in. That was just the world that I'm currently living in. I'm actually. I've actually kept this. This one plant alive. And there's a plant that my mom gave me in this pot. And in, like, script, it just says, I love you. Right? And I have killed every plant that I've ever had. And I've kept this alive because I.
B
Put it in my head, that one. That the plant dies, your mom dies. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
So I'm like, I gotta keep this fucker alive.
B
Dude. Bro. Becca. Becca was like a super, like, plant. I don't want to say plant mom, cuz, but, like, took care of plants. We had a ton of plants. And then one day she was just, like, over it and put, like 90% of them outside to die. She, like, walked them to the cliff and then shot them in the back of the head.
A
She made them walk the plane.
B
Made him walk the plank. These poor succulents. I think she was just. It was just too much to keep up with on top of all the other things to do. And she was just like, all right, it's time to go.
A
That's funny.
B
What about every time you try to have something with milk, the milk is just a little spoiled. Not. Not fully spoiled, where it's like clumpy dumpy pumpies. But, like, just enough where you smell it, you're like, oh, my God, I.
A
Got a great one. I got a great one every day, at some point during the day, hair in your mouth that you can't get. That you can't get. You know what I mean? It could be your hair, but it's like that feeling of like, I can't get this thing. I hate it.
B
Or that thing. You know how anytime there's something in your teeth and you try to get it, it's like your brain knows where it is, but you can't ever find it with your finger. You never had that ant. You ever had that?
A
I know when things get caught in my mouth.
B
Like, you know, like when you guide your tongue there, you know exactly where it is. But when you have to, like, get it with a toothpick or something. Something. You can't ever find it.
A
Yeah.
C
You feel with your tongue. You try to pick with your finger, like, is this the right.
B
Is this the right tooth? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That every day there's something in your teeth. Every day.
C
I just want to give this person just a leak somewhere. Just a tiny little leak.
B
Like from, like, they piss their pants.
C
No, not an internal leak. No, like, like the faucet. She's always dripping. Like, no matter what they do. Always dripping.
A
I have.
B
I guess.
C
I guess I also have one. I have an ant problem right now.
B
Jesus. Yeah, that's. I mean, just a couple traps.
A
You're our ant problem.
B
All right.
A
I'm kidding. I was talking about my aunt Maurice. I tried to make up a name.
B
Maurice. I don't know why that was the.
A
Name that I landed on.
B
Yeah. Insects could be a big problem. Like, don't carpenter.
A
Like, every day at some point you walk into a spider web.
B
I mean, I get why you hate that one. That I understand.
A
It would be cool with walking into a spider web every day, I'd be like, yo, what the fuck? You know?
C
You know what I do? If it was Joe, I would just say, every day you just see a cockroach in your. In your apartment.
A
That would be so major.
B
I mean, that. Yeah, that's. That's major, dude.
A
How about this? Once a week, your car gets destroyed with bird shit. Oh, I thought you're about to say.
B
Oh, I don't really care about that much. It's just bird shit. I'll wait till it rains.
C
Huh?
A
What an insane response.
B
Why?
A
If you're. If your car gets destroyed with bird shit, you're not gonna go get it cleaned, you're gonna wait till it rains? What if it doesn't rain for two weeks? You have a bird shit car.
B
Yeah.
C
What about every time you have to drive somewhere, you have to stop for gas?
A
Yeah.
B
I mean, that. That's inconvenient, but it also could be major.
A
Well, I. Never mind what I was gonna say. Like this is stupid because it's not every time that, like. It's not like every bridge, but I was gonna say every time there's one of those bridge that open, every time they go up, we are approaching it and they, like, go up.
B
Oh, well, that would only like if you live where or just pair it.
C
With even train tracks. Like, every inconvenience like on transport happens.
B
I got one. Every time you go to a restaurant and your. Your server forgets one of the items you've ordered.
A
Oh, that's good.
B
They always forget one of the items. So if you get a starter, a main, a dessert, and a drink or whatever, they always forget one of those.
A
How about this? Every first date card declines. You can pay for it with your other card, but your card declines.
B
Yeah, but then you have to imagine the person's going on several first dates, you know?
C
No, I would. Yeah, I double.
A
I think.
C
I don't think that's enough.
A
I would.
B
Yeah, I agree. Not enough. Because what if the person goes on one first date and that's it? They meet their.
C
I would say the person who I hate. I would give them every first date. At least if we're keeping first date, they just forget their wallet.
A
Oh, my. Dude, that's major.
B
I would say that's major.
A
Yeah. Is it?
B
Yeah, I would agree.
C
Pass it.
A
No way.
C
You can try.
A
If I forget my wallet on a first date and the woman has to pay.
B
Yeah.
A
Yeah. If I'm her, I'd be like, bro, you didn't forget your wallet. Like, this is a.
C
You don't understand. My co worker, I hated cursed me. I forget it every time.
A
I forget it every time.
B
I'm trying to think of some that are just so minor, but, like, they would just make. They would, like, add up.
C
Every time you pick up a cardboard box, you get a little paper cup.
B
That would. That's. That's a lot. Yeah, I mean, I think an easy one is, like, every day you stub your toe.
A
Yeah.
C
I would want to think the person I hate is getting it harder than that.
A
A little.
C
A little worse than that.
B
Yeah. You want to give it to him hard, huh?
A
All right.
B
You want to give it to him nice and raw and hard.
A
I don't think he said raw.
B
We've spent 30 minutes on this.
A
It's fun. I'm interested in seeing because I'm assuming people will just, like, be in the comments with, like, really good ones now that they have, like, time to think about it. Like, we're just trying to come up with them.
B
Right now.
A
But, like, what about. Got a good one.
C
Go.
A
I don't want to say every time you say hi to somebody, but it's like a percent. Half of the time that you, like, go to say hi to someone. Static. Shock. Oh, annoying.
B
Oh. What if you. Every person that you meet, you forget their name.
A
That's also a reality. I'm kind of living, like.
C
That's pretty major. No.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
C
I just had something.
B
Oh.
A
Oh.
C
Every time you set an alarm clock, it doesn't go off.
B
That could be major. Every time you order an Uber, it can't. The first one always cancels on you.
C
That's been.
A
Or even.
B
Or.
A
I mean, I. I don't know if this is worse, but, like, it. But, like, every Uber you order, never mind. It's only cool if you're like, well, if the curse is that you don't know, it's gonna happen every single time. I was gonna say every order that you order is, like, 10 minutes at least.
B
Yeah.
A
I mean, that's not canceling when they're close. Oh, my God. I could.
B
I've had. Yeah, I've had that happen where they'd, like, take 20 minutes and then they cancel.
A
Oh, no. Can't do it.
B
Yeah.
C
Every time you take a mode of transportation, you have an overly chatty person next to you.
A
Wouldn't make it out. Bus would not make it out. Dude.
B
I mean, what, you think he's going on the bus and the train saying.
C
Planes, you know, all them.
B
All right.
C
Uber and Uber.
B
That would suck.
A
Chatty Ubers, just very niche ones. Every time you go to Jersey Mike's, they're out of hand.
B
Every single time you try to get a penny a vodka, they use a little too much cream.
A
Every time you get home, your wife wants, shut the hell up about this sink dripping.
B
Every beer you got is accompanied by your kids that won't shut the upper. Every time you try to drive your 2002 Dodge Charger, you were back, baby. We're back. You know, carrying the safe through the city of Brazil and Sao Paulo. Beautiful Sao Paulo. Visit today, the jewel of South America, the Federales. Bust.
A
You love that. Oh, man. All right. I mean, I have none left.
B
Yeah.
A
I think that we've beaten this.
B
