Oh, thank you. You reminded me I needed to add a little milk.
Ace Cosby
Would you hurry up and cook that stuff so we can do some cooking in the bedroom?
Chick McGee
Cook?
Jess Hooker
You don't cook this. Chill it slowly and serve it with jelly on the side.
Ace Cosby
You're going to need petroleum jelly and you're going to have to serve yourself. I'm out of here.
Jess Hooker
Petroleum jelly. Disgusting. I'm imagining a delicate mint jelly to offset the exciting explosion of flavors this.

Chick McGee
What were you saying once again, maybe radio's not for you. You can't talk. You can't do two things at once.
Tom Griswold
I can't think and talk at the same time. Kind of a problem.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah, that would be helpful in this craft.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Kostake is a distinguish. A standup comedian. He is also a huge NFL fan and he's Greek and he has all pro lines. He's the proprietor of all pro liners, where people can weigh in with their thoughts on CEO, the world of. The world of professional football. You're also an Atlanta Falcons Die Hard fan.
Kostaki Economopoulos

Chick McGee
They're not doing too bad. They're right in there. This.
Kostaki Economopoulos
This year is fine.
Chick McGee
Yeah, it's all right.
Kostaki Economopoulos
This. We're fine.
Tom Griswold
Kostaki. Now, are you technically. You're technically single, right?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yes. Yeah, I'm. Oh, I'm single.
Christy Lee
What do you mean, technically single?
Kostaki Economopoulos
I mean. Yeah, yeah. You mean he's divorced and you're legally single now? I'm not legally single yet, but we're working on.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Kostaki Economopoulos
I did buy condoms, though.
Christy Lee
Oh, really?
Kostaki Economopoulos
That was cathartic. How many is a good question.
Chick McGee
That's the definition of.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Wow. That's a funny first question.
Tom Griswold
Is there a. Is there an excellent expiration date on those babies?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah, they're definitely. I may have run by. Yeah, it's. Yeah. Yeah. So I walked into the store. I was very excited. Just felt cathartic. Cathartic. I'm like, I'm gonna buy some condoms. And then I couldn't find them. Right. Took a while to find them. And then when I found them, they were locked. No. Yes.
Christopher
Really?
Kostaki Economopoulos
And it's funny how quick I went back to 17 year old me. I was like, oh, I gotta talk to a lady. And I did. I had to walk around and find a woman to help me. She was about 65 years old, maybe Jamaican. She was awesome. We had such a human exchange. So I go, yeah, if you open these, I could take it from you. I just haven't bought these in like a decade. And she said, yeah, most of the people who get these are a lot younger. Chef's kiss. And I go, yeah. Do you have any idea what the kids are buying these days? And this is a direct quote. She said, no, my kitchen's been closed for a long time too.
Chick McGee
Wow.
Kostaki Economopoulos
2.
Chick McGee
Did you take her to dinner? She was so comfortable.
Kostaki Economopoulos
It was really. It was just like this very human kind, earnest. So there are. There's so many different kinds.
Tom Griswold
Reopen the kitchen.
Kostaki Economopoulos
There's so many different Kinds of condos.
Tom Griswold
How did you decide?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Well, there were two that I wanted to try, but their boxes are 12, which seems like a lot of condoms to buy for a guy with nothing going on.
Tom Griswold
Do they have a variety pack, like Band Aids?
Kostaki Economopoulos
No, that would be where they've got.
Tom Griswold
Like, the little ones, the big ones.
Kostaki Economopoulos
I would totally go. That's how I buy beers now. You get the 12 pack with all the different kinds.
Tom Griswold
I bet you. I would almost guarantee you could go online and some. There has to be some company that'll give you eight different kinds of whatever.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Must be. That's a great idea. So I get two boxes of condoms, and I had some other stuff in my hands, and I turned to walk away, and she said, enjoy your life. It was so earnest, and I didn't think of it till I got to the car, but if I thought of it, I would have said it, and I'm 100% sure she would have laughed. I should have turned and gone, you know, this is a lot of condoms. You want to knock some rust off or something? She would have loved that.
Chick McGee
I don't know. Knock some rust.
Kostaki Economopoulos
We got to get this kitchen reopened, girl.
Tom Griswold
There you go. Fire up the burners.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Extend the metaphor. Go back. Back to the kitchen.
Christy Lee
I don't use the rest word that sounds.
Kostaki Economopoulos
That's the wrong.
Josh Arnold
Shake out the spiders.
Tom Griswold
They prefer now. Do they have we. Let's open up those can. Is it too personal for me to ask? Have you had an opportunity to.
Kostaki Economopoulos
I've. Yes, but. But most of them are just still there. It's not zero, but it's a very small number.
Tom Griswold
I see.
Ace Cosby
All right.
Tom Griswold
And did you keep them in the. Did you. Did you.
Kostaki Economopoulos
No, no. I don't. I don't walk around with.
Tom Griswold
Did you make the right choice, do you think?
Chick McGee
Do you have a condom on you right now?
Kostaki Economopoulos
No, I did not.
Christy Lee
Oh.
Tom Griswold
Two of the three men in this room currently are wearing them.
Chick McGee
You have to take them on stage with you at some point and. And say, I got the condoms right here.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Anyone?
Chick McGee
Well, Dr. Rust off.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Anyone?
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Kostaki Economopoulos

Kostaki Economopoulos

Tom Griswold
Is that amazing?
Kostaki Economopoulos
It is astounding.
Tom Griswold
Did you hear this, Ms. Hooker?
Ace Cosby
No. What happened?
Kostaki Economopoulos
There are plenty of good reasons.
Tom Griswold
25% of people, if they had just met someone, if. If they're an iPhone user and this Person's an Android. They wouldn't.
Christy Lee
Deal breaker is a low deal breaker.
Ace Cosby
That wouldn't even be on my radar.
Christy Lee
No, no, no.
Ace Cosby
I don't. I don't care.
Tom Griswold
One of the cool things about if your partner is the opposite, if your iPhone and their Android, then they can't take your charger.
Ace Cosby

Tom Griswold
Just yesterday I had a girl break.
Josh Arnold
Up with me because we had different phones.
Ace Cosby
Really?
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Her phone was an iPhone and my phone had naked pictures of her sister on it.
Ace Cosby

Chick McGee
So you know that moment she said.
Josh Arnold
This is a deal breaker system.
Chick McGee
You were on.
Kostaki Economopoulos
These shallow girls.
Tom Griswold
Our guest is comedian Kostakia Kanemopolis. So you're obviously doing a little bit of dating then, since you very, very little.
Kostaki Economopoulos
I'm so enjoying being by myself. Just to sleep diagonally across a king size bed. One is mad about snoring. Or I can eat when I want sleep.
Tom Griswold
Are you meeting ladies post show that they see you on stage or you.
Kostaki Economopoulos
No, my demo is 57 year old white guys only. You mean.
Christy Lee

Chick McGee
I did you see what he just did?
Josh Arnold
Just go with the narrative he wants to build.
Chick McGee
Are you dating? No. No. Very soon. So you're meeting these ladies. It's amazing.
Kostaki Economopoulos
I did try Tinder almost as a social experiment. I have enough friends in the same boat and they all said it was a nightmare, but I felt like I should try it. I will say the first night of Tinder, you feel like a king. I'm just laying in bed with a beer buzz. I'm like, I say yes to you. Yes. Large bosoms. Enjoy sushi. Yes. Bio written in broken English. Yes. Weird makeup. Enjoys craft beer. Yes. Y. Bring them all to me by Thursday. And then of course like a hundred. Whatever it is, a hundred swipes later. Nothing. No, just it's. It's so humbling. And then you finally get a little. You have like a little text exchange when you finally connect with somebody. And this is totally true. And like three phrases in. I'm like, oh, this isn't a woman. Oh, this is a robot that wants me to send bitcoin.
Christy Lee
Yeah. A lot of Those?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah. I had no idea that was the cul de sac on a lot of these.
Tom Griswold
What gave it away?
Kostaki Economopoulos
It was literally like an inhuman kind of exchange, you know, like it was clearly a block.
Christy Lee
You can tell?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah, immediately, like there's not a human anything.
Chick McGee
AI has trouble with articles, I've noticed. Be like, so in the off time are on now or something like that. They've really broken English every now and.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Then they get not responsive in a human way to. I was saying at all.
Tom Griswold
And what was your pitch, may I ask?
Kostaki Economopoulos
My pitch?
Tom Griswold
What is the. What is the Kostaki sales pitch?
Ace Cosby
Yeah, what did your. What did your Tinder profile say?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Oh, man, I don't even remember. It's been a while.
Chick McGee
Take a look.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Did you say you're a comedian?
Kostaki Economopoulos
No. No.
Chick McGee
Can I guess? I bet you say you're a writer.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Entertainer. I didn't. I don't think I covered my job in magician. Are you supposed to tell them what you do? I guess you should tell.
Tom Griswold
Did you mention the Atlanta Falcon?
Kostaki Economopoulos
I didn't do that.
Ace Cosby
Probably craft beer, right? You've probably said that Craft beer is in there.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Little sports. Yeah, I forget. It's been. It's been a couple of years. I tried this at the very beginning. Do you say father disaster immediately? So I'm like, okay, that's not the path.
Josh Arnold
Oh, yeah. Did you go ahead and say, you know, father or two, single father, that kind of thing?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yes, I did do that.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Because I think that's important. Yeah.
Josh Arnold
Why not?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah, they definitely need to know that.
Josh Arnold
Well, and you want to weed out the people who aren't interested in.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Right, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Are there other codes that people use implying certain things?
Christy Lee
What do you mean?
Ace Cosby
Boy, I like what they're into sexually.
Chick McGee
Oh, you mean like they'd say I like to leave my garage door up, Stuff like that?
Josh Arnold
Oh, what the hell does that mean? Well, if you don't. If you don't know, don't worry about it.
Chick McGee
My back door is always open.
Tom Griswold
I'm trying to like deep thinker and deep too.
Chick McGee
That's right.
Ace Cosby
Okay.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Implying, you know, donkey esque.
Chick McGee
I have a dog. I hope you do too. Doggy style.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I'm asking. I don't know. I've never. I could never do any of this stuff.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah, No. I find it to be terrible all the way through. And it's so. It's hard for me because I just want to just be by myself. I want to be a good comic and a good dad and the rest of it, like, I don't even. Really, I'm not interested now. I'm sure I will be someday. But it's so nice.
Christy Lee
Yeah. When your kids are old.
Kostaki Economopoulos
No.
Tom Griswold
Is it starting to back up? You know what I'm saying?
Chick McGee
Is it starting to back up?
Tom Griswold
You know what I'm saying?
Chick McGee
No.
Kostaki Economopoulos
I've had some long running habits that have remained so long.
Josh Arnold
Keep them in place.
Tom Griswold
So the reason you're diagonal in the queen size bed is because there's a couple of wet spots. Okay, well, we've done some good work here. Now, if I could get back to something. I had an idea. When Kostaki Khanomopoulos is in the process of becoming a single man again, you've been apart from. But you mentioned that. You mentioned that. You went on, you purchased some common.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Oh, yeah.
Tom Griswold
And as I recall the situation, there was a huge variety available behind the lot. Glass.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yes. Yes.
Tom Griswold
You kind of had to choose to. And my question was, doesn't some company have a variety pack? And I said, like band aids. And I was trying to think of another analogy, and I thought of one. Remember when you were a kid and you could buy that 12 pack of cereal boxes?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yes.
Tom Griswold
And it was always at the end of the pack, there was always the one you didn't want to eat.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
You'd go through all the cool ones that were all sugar, then you'd get. Yeah, now I've got the grape Nuts.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Right.
Christy Lee
Little Special K was.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Why would they even put Special K in?
Christy Lee
Yeah, Special K was always in there. And then did your. Your mom never did this. Wake up my mom. Well, if you don't eat that one, we're not buying another one. You had to, you know, eat all the.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, we had.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
No K. This is important. Neapolitan ice cream. What order do you eat them in?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Oh, yeah, I like variety. So a little bit of each. You try to keep it even.
Tom Griswold
You can't do.
Kostaki Economopoulos
That's the wrong answer.
Tom Griswold
That's wrong. Josh.
Kostaki Economopoulos
I thought it.
Chick McGee
There's no. There's no question now as to why we're not friends with him. Is that right? What a bad answer.
Tom Griswold
You go, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, boom.
Chick McGee
This is the order.
Kostaki Economopoulos
The order that you like.
Chick McGee
Chocolate, strawberry.
Kostaki Economopoulos
But I've always been the opposite. Like, I always save the best bite of the meal for the end. Okay. I would even eat pizza backwards so that you get the middle part at the end.
Tom Griswold
Oh, wow.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah. Yeah. You want to kind of, you know, like in the standup show, you want to try to Peek at the end. I see.
Chick McGee
Yeah, I think Dahmer did that.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Now, does this apply to your lovemaking also?
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yes. Ideally, the peak is at the end.
Christy Lee
I peek in the first five.
Chick McGee
You're still calling it love making.
Tom Griswold
All right, Christy, what do you got over there at the news desk?
Christy Lee
An article from the Guardian offers the following. Pet may be getting in the way of your sex life. Clinical psychologist Karen Gurney said, quote, given that attention is so crucial for sex, anything that disrupts it, like noticing the dog has jumped onto the bed, I don't can really get in the way of our sexual response.
Chick McGee
I don't know if attention is actually important to sex.
Christy Lee
Depends on who the person is.
Chick McGee
It's like whatever, and then it kind of takes on a life of its own and it's done. Yeah. You don't have to. Especially in a, like a long term relationship, you don't have to just, you.
Tom Griswold
Know, let him go.
Chick McGee
You gotta be attendance. And then you don't really.
Josh Arnold
You just kind of phone it in.
Ace Cosby
Like autopilot.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yes.
Ace Cosby
Okay, that sounds awful.
Tom Griswold
So you're okay. So if there are two golden retrievers staring at you, you're okay with it?
Chick McGee
Yeah, that's fine. I just shut my eyes and I don't see them.
Christy Lee
Those in relationship.
Tom Griswold
What about if they're jumping up on the bed?
Chick McGee
Well, that's a little bit more problematic.
Christy Lee
Yeah. You should work together to set boundaries.
Tom Griswold
I don't like any hair up there. Last thing I want is picking golden retriever hair out of my mouth.
Josh Arnold
Well, you don't have to kiss them. You toot to the dog.
Chick McGee
He always. He never wants to talk, but then when he wants to talk, he's like this consummate lover. Is that right?
Christy Lee
Tomorrow you should work together to set boundaries in your bedroom regarding your pets. Those engaging in casual sex.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, boundaries. Like not having your pets in there.
Christy Lee
Should ask pet owning partners about their bedroom policy before jumping into bed.
Josh Arnold
All right, let's say.
Tom Griswold
So how does that go? Go ahead, Josh.
Josh Arnold
What's that? I was gonna say something.
Chick McGee
You and I are going to get together later, Josh.
Josh Arnold
Okay.
Christy Lee
First time?
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Your casual encounter.
Chick McGee
Hey, you know, maybe we could, you know, take this into the bedroom later on.
Josh Arnold
Right.
Chick McGee
What is your policy as far as your pets go?
Josh Arnold
Oh.
Chick McGee
You see what's happening?
Josh Arnold
There was a girl I was dating years ago, and she had a dog.
Chick McGee
Oh, you date girls?
Josh Arnold
Yeah, I was experimenting.
Chick McGee
I think I'm wasting my time.
Kostaki Economopoulos
No, no, please.
Josh Arnold
Keep showering me with gifts.
Chick McGee
Okay.
Christy Lee
All right.
Josh Arnold
She had a dog that we Would eventually just let in the room because it would scratch and bark at the door. And we were like, just let it in.
Chick McGee
Oh, my goodness.
Josh Arnold
Because it was more of a Distract to have it out of the room.
Chick McGee
Wow.
Ace Cosby
Would he just come in and lay down and leave you alone?
Josh Arnold
Yeah, and leave us alone.
Ace Cosby
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Dogs just go in their crates and lay there.
Ace Cosby
Yeah. Have a show.
Tom Griswold
There's a famous.
Josh Arnold
Exactly.
Tom Griswold
There's a famous story from the great actor Robert Mitchum on this topic. I highly. It's worth. Look. Googling it and finding it. It's very humorous.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
It involves Mr. Mitchum's testicles and a great day.
Chick McGee
Go ahead and tell us the story. No, no, I can't.
Tom Griswold
It.
Kostaki Economopoulos
It's.
Tom Griswold
It's far too vulgar to.
Kostaki Economopoulos
I. We. You.
Josh Arnold

Christy Lee
I think we get it. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
I mean, if you're gonna put those two things together, there's licking involved. I would.

The potential for a scratch, you know, they. They look. Oh, look, there's a ball of yarn. Oh, there's two balls.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
There's something flopping around I can scratch at.
Tom Griswold
I think that.
Josh Arnold
Thankfully, that has not been been.
Kostaki Economopoulos
O.
Christy Lee
My younger dog thinks that I am everything. I'm her world. And so every night when we go to bed, she kind of corrals and doesn't let Andy get in bed. She won't let him. It's so funny. She runs around on top of the bed like. Like playing defense. Like you aren't getting near her. Get out.
Kostaki Economopoulos
Yeah.
Chick McGee
