The Best Bits of the Week with Morgan Part 1 Behind the Scenes with.

[Morgan]

A member of the show Good morning Everybody, happy weekend. I am here with Lunchbox. What's up, buddy?

[Lunchbox]

How are you? Oh, man, you know, these Saturday mornings, I just. I'm never gonna get used to getting up early on a Saturday morning. But when you got kids, you gotta get up early anyway. And I'm just tired. But I got a big night tonight, so, I mean, hopefully I can nap in, which I won't be able to get a nap in because I have kids and they're not going to want to know.

[Morgan]

You mean you're not going to get a nap and you always get naps in.

[Lunchbox]

I know, but they're. Yeah, I got. I got the Demolition Derby tonight. Mad Dog Demolition Derby down in Smithville, Tennessee. And if you ain't rubbing, you ain't racing.

[Morgan]

Is that your saying or theirs?

[Lunchbox]

I know. That's from Days of Thunder.

[Morgan]

Okay, what's Days of Thunder?

[Lunchbox]

Nicole Kidman, Tom Cruise, where they met. You know what I mean?

[Morgan]

Yeah, I don't never heard of this movie.

[Lunchbox]

If you ain't rubbing, you ain't racing.

[Morgan]

That also just sounds very inappropriate.

[Lunchbox]

No, if you ain't rubbing, you ain't racing.

[Morgan]

Yep, still weird.

[Lunchbox]

I want you to go out there and crash. Smash into the pace car. Hit the pace car. Hit the pace car. Yes, go out and hit the pace car. Why would I hit the pace car? Because then you would have hitten every car on that track today. Oh, my goodness. What a movie.

[Morgan]

Is this like one of your favorite movies and I'm just now hearing about it?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know if it's one of my favorites, but it's a fantastic movie.

[Morgan]

Okay, well, on rotten tomatoes it's 38%.

[Lunchbox]

Do what?

[Morgan]

It's only got 38%.

[Lunchbox]

There's no way. There is no way it only has 38% on rotten tomatoes.

[Morgan]

It does. Here, let me, let me double check. It just popped up that way. But maybe that's just a critic saying that. Maybe.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I was gonna say that has to be the critics. There's no way the audience rated. The audience loves it.

[Morgan]

What's it, what's it called again? Days of Thunder.

[Lunchbox]

Days of Thunder. Cold trickle.

[Morgan]

Critics give it 38%. Popcorn meter is 60.

[Katherine Legge]

So.

[Morgan]

So not great.

[Lunchbox]

Only 60. Oh, people, they don't know racing then. But hey, you know, I do know.

[Morgan]

You know racing.

[Lunchbox]

I do.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

And that's why I'm in the Demolition Derby tonight. Get your tickets, motorhead events.com. if you're listening to this on Saturday, March 8th. I mean, if not, then you missed it.

[Morgan]

And the family they come in, the boys, excited to see me.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. They don't get to see me in. In the. The Demolition Derby. They're going on spring break.

[Morgan]

Oh, you don't get to have your little fan club.

[Lunchbox]

I know.

[Morgan]

Are you bummed?

[Lunchbox]

I'm pretty bummed because, I mean, they were going to be going crazy. They would love to see it. They would love to see me out there in a little junker of a car racing and rubbing and wrecking and.

[Morgan]

Okay, you have to stop saying Robin. It just feels weird.

[Lunchbox]

It just doesn't scrape in metal. I mean, it's gonna be her. I can't wait. I hope some listener. I have no idea if listeners are gonna come or not, but I'm excited. I want to know what kind of car I'm driving. I don't know if it's gonna be a truck, a Sentra, an Impala, a Cadillac. I have no idea.

[Morgan]

I was picturing, like, monster cars, like, really giant tires. You're on, like, these really cool trucks and you're like, no, no, no.

[Lunchbox]

That's like monster truck.

[Morgan]

I know.

[Lunchbox]

This is demolition derby. Mad dog. Demolition derby.

[Morgan]

I'm being honest. I thought it was all the same.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. Where people, like, probably go to the junkyard and get their own car. Like, they pick out a car and they fix it up to where it runs at least. And you take out all the windows because you don't want glass. And then you. And some of them, like last year, they had one car. The trunk had to be duct taped closed because it wouldn't close.

[Morgan]

You know what? I think one of my neighbors might participate in this because every weekend, he's always seen them.

[Lunchbox]

When we did the dance on your back porch, they had a bunch of those cars. They probably do.

[Morgan]

Yeah. And they are always back there, like, revving these engines and the windows are busted out of them.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, they're all junkers.

[Morgan]

And they're always out there working on them at random hours. And then, like, they're gone and then they'll come back and they're back there again. So I'm wondering if you're going to be hanging out with my neighbors.

[Lunchbox]

They might be. They might be in the Demolition Derby.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

I'm excited.

[Morgan]

Remember they were watching us when we were doing the Beyonce dance.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Morgan]

We were learning it.

[Lunchbox]

We haven't done a dance in a long time. Just so you know. FYI, Rest in peace to our dances.

[Morgan]

No, it's not over. But also, they're just.

[Lunchbox]

It might be. Because you never know if I'M going to live tonight. That's why you should come.

[Morgan]

That's true. I really need you to be safe.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Wear a helmet.

[Lunchbox]

I believe. I hope I wear. I have no idea.

[Morgan]

You might need to bring a helmet just in case.

[Lunchbox]

Someone told me that I'm going to be really sore.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

And I didn't think about that, but you know what I mean, that's racers. That's part of life, man. That's the racing lifestyle we got, you know, demolition derby.com. no, it's really. Motorhead events dot com. Mad Dog and my kids. I got them shirts last year at this event.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

And they were like.

[Morgan]

So you went to this event last year?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah.

[Morgan]

Didn't you do some hosting thing with it last year? Okay.

[Lunchbox]

And I got them shirts last year. They are, like, six sizes too big. And they wear them and they love them. And they're like, dad, can I wear this to school? And I'm like, whatever, dude. It's like down to their ankles, But.

[Morgan]

And now they're gonna be sad because you actually participate.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. And then this year I was like, oh, you guys are gonna go. I don't get to go.

[Morgan]

Bummer. Are you. Are you sad you're also not joining them on vacation?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, you think?

[Morgan]

Are they going somewhere fun?

[Lunchbox]

They're going to the beach.

[Morgan]

Are you guys a beach family?

[Lunchbox]

No. But, you guys, my wife likes the beach. I don't like the beach.

[Morgan]

Do the kids like the beach?

[Lunchbox]

Baby Box 2 will get in the water. Baby Box 1 will play in the sand. Baby Box 3 doesn't know the difference. He does them both.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

He gets, like, two feet in the water, and then he stays on the sand. Two feet in the water. But Baby box two will go in the water. Like, he'll let you take him in the water.

[Morgan]

I just don't imagine a beach vacation with little kids is super relaxing.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, no, it's not very much fun.

[Morgan]

Because they're moving around all the time. They don't want to lay there.

[Lunchbox]

Well, not even that. Just it's so hot. Usually when you go to the beach and little kids, you know what they don't want to be is really freaking hot. And they get miserable, cranky, and wah. But if you bring a bunch of food, then you got to lug all that crap to the beach. So when you're going to the beach, you have to lug all this crap. And then it's like the kids are there for an hour, then they're tired, they're hot. You're getting Sunburned. It's like, oh, my gosh, what do I do? It's so frustrating.

[Morgan]

Yeah. That doesn't sound enjoyable. And I'm already not a beach person, but that really doesn't add to it.

[Lunchbox]

I got sand in my ear. I got sand in my nose. I am not a beach person, so I don't get it. I don't understand the beach, but my wife likes it. So we go sometimes and it's just like, I don't get it.

[Morgan]

If you're not a beach person, what would you say you are?

[Lunchbox]

A lake person.

[Morgan]

Okay, give me that. Do you like mountains?

[Lunchbox]

I love mountains.

[Morgan]

But you've never skied before.

[Lunchbox]

Never skied.

[Morgan]

Okay. But you ski.

[Lunchbox]

I think mountains look cool. Like, I wouldn't mind. I like hiking up and climbing up. I've never been on them when they're snowy.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

I went to Colorado, but it was during the summer, so there was no snow on the mountain. But I will say, give me that green water and that algae on the ground that I can touch with my toes in the moss. Ah. I eat that up.

[Morgan]

Okay. I don't love the feeling of rocks, but I would be more of a lake person most of the time, just because lake has more activities. I like to, like, be on a boat on a lake or.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Or you're, like, there. And you can. If you're at someone's lake house or something, or a house on the lake, you jump in the water, play in the yard, then you can go inside.

[Morgan]

Yeah. The beach, not typically as high as, like.

[Lunchbox]

Yes. And the beach. Well, in the end, you can have shade at the lake. There could be trees in the yard or wherever you're at the beach, there ain't no shade. There's no going in a house. It's. You're on the beach, and then you gotta pack up and go to the car and drive back.

[Morgan]

You guys don't get a, like, house on the beach. I know. Those are. What?

[Lunchbox]

Do you know how much those are?

[Morgan]

They used to be relatively cheap. We'd go down to Gulf Shores, Alabama, for spring break. There'd be a whole bunch of us if we rent a house.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, hold on. When you're in college and you have 52 people crammed to a house, it's cheap.

[Morgan]

Well, I'm sorry, that's the reference I have.

[Lunchbox]

When you're an adult and you're only paying for one family to stay at a house on the beach.

[Morgan]

Yeah. They're probably super pricey right now, too, I would imagine.

[Lunchbox]

I would Imagine, too. I don't know. I don't even know.

[Morgan]

It's been cold everywhere, so I don't look at it.

[Lunchbox]

I'm like, I'm good. I'll pass. I'll just stay, you know, like a mile off the beach and.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, wait, I'm not even going. So I'm not, you know.

[Morgan]

So what are you going to do for a week with them? Not here?

[Lunchbox]

I'll probably come to work.

[Morgan]

Okay. Besides working, though.

[Lunchbox]

I have no idea.

[Morgan]

Free afternoons for evenings.

[Lunchbox]

That's going to be weird. That's going to be weird because usually I got to be having a schedule, you know, like, oh, got to get the kid off the bus at 3:00. And now I'm going to be like, 3:00. What do I do? Yeah, honey, you gonna make me. Oh, no, you're not gonna make me dinner because you're not here. What am I gonna.

[Morgan]

Will you cook when she's not There will be a lot of takeout, watching sports.

[Lunchbox]

I'll probably cook one meal. I cook the. I have this recipe for enchiladas.

[Morgan]

And I mean, that'll last you through the week.

[Lunchbox]

Well, it makes two or it makes like 10 of them.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

So I eat two at a time. So that's five meals.

[Morgan]

Okay. That gets you through one meal each day every week of the week.

[Lunchbox]

Right. So that's. That's good.

[Morgan]

Okay. But besides that. Probably some.

[Lunchbox]

Probably.

[Morgan]

I mean, I'm just trying to picture a life of lunchbox without the kids, without the wife. What that looks like for a week.

[Lunchbox]

That's what it's gonna look like. I'm just gonna be hanging out. I mean, it's gonna be weird. It's not gonna be a lot of. Ah. Ah. Dad, dad. It's gonna be quiet.

[Morgan]

Will you like it or will you like, like it for a few hours and then.

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. I've never had it.

[Morgan]

This is the first time.

[Lunchbox]

First time ever.

[Morgan]

This is gonna be weird.

[Lunchbox]

This is the first time ever. Because this is their first spring break. Cause he's in kindergarten. My oldest is in kindergarten. We've never had spring break before. Week off of school where they could go do something. So it's like he's the only one.

[Morgan]

In school right now. Yeah, right. That's crazy.

[Lunchbox]

Well, you got one in kindergarten, one in pre K, so he'll be in kindergarten next year.

[Morgan]

Remind me that pre K is only half days, right?

[Lunchbox]

No, no, it's normal.

[Morgan]

It is?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Oh, I don't know why that's Mother's Day out.

[Morgan]

Oh, when Pre K. But then she.

[Lunchbox]

Has no Mother's Day out is when it's only like half a day. Like it gives you like two or three hours to do like mothers give a break, go, you know, to get a cocktail and then come back and get your kid.

[Morgan]

Okay. I don't know why my. I feel like my pre K was like half days.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I don't know. I don't remember doing pre K. I did gymnastics instead.

[Morgan]

I did gymnastics too, but there was pre K in there somewhere. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

I think I skipped pre K because I wanted to do gymnastics because I didn't want to go to school.

[Morgan]

You never stuck with it though. You didn't become a gymnast?

[Lunchbox]

No, no, I think I was a one and done.

[Morgan]

Did you just want to like play on all the little.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I just didn't want to go to school, I think is what it was. And so I had to do that or go to pre K, I think. And so I said, I'll do gymnastics.

[Morgan]

How long were you, like hour wise, you think you were in gymnastics for? Was it like the whole of a morning or were you just there for an hour?

[Lunchbox]

For an hour.

[Morgan]

That's funny.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, if I had to guess, I really. I just remember being in gymnastics when I was like four and that was because I didn't want to go to preschool. And we. I remember doing a cartwheel on the big beam towards the end.

[Morgan]

That was all you got?

[Lunchbox]

That's all I got. And I don't know if it was a high beam, if it was like a beam that was barely off the ground, but I just remember that long. I remember practicing cartwheels and I don't know, I have no idea. And then I never went back.

[Morgan]

What sports did you play when you were a kid?

[Lunchbox]

What did I play?

[Morgan]

Yeah, like now that I'm thinking about, like gymnastics, obviously, when you're super, super young.

[Lunchbox]

I played soccer, I played baseball, I played basketball for a couple of seasons. I ran track, I ran cross country. That was it.

[Morgan]

Okay. Those are about what I suspected.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Based on what you've talked about before.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. I never, never played football. I was too big. The coaches were like, hey, you're gonna hurt people out here. So.

[Morgan]

Oh, yeah, I'm sure that's what they said.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Really? It was. I was, I mean, I was 5ft tall, 85 pounds, until my junior year of high school.

[Morgan]

Was your junior year when you had kind of your growth?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, that's when I finally got tall.

[Morgan]

And had a Much deeper voice.

[Lunchbox]

No, I've always had a deep voice.

[Morgan]

Really?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Always.

[Morgan]

You never. When the growth part, did it come even deeper, though?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. I mean, I know every once in a while I'd go, you know, you do that, and. Oh, you know. And your boys would make fun of you, but your voice cracks. But I always had a deep voice.

[Morgan]

I think maybe it was starting out deep, and then it just got really deeper. Maybe like you went down an octave or something.

[Lunchbox]

Am I a baritone? Is that what they call it? Baritone?

[Morgan]

I think it's a baritone hello. That sounds accurate, at least.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. So that was me. What did you play? You played softball, right?

[Morgan]

Yeah, I did softball, volleyball, basketball. I was also competitive cheerleader. But all. All of that.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Basketball. Let me tell you about my basketball career. So I was on the Denver Nuggets the first year. Me.

[Morgan]

Oh, yeah, like the NBA team.

[Lunchbox]

Yes. Me, Rob Pigott, Nick Jacobson.

[Morgan]

How do you remember all of their names?

[Lunchbox]

And we went 0 and 10.

[Morgan]

Oh, you were horrible.

[Lunchbox]

We didn't win a single game.

[Morgan]

Okay. Yeah. So not your sport.

[Lunchbox]

And, oh, Ian Pierce was on my team, too. And we got just demolished. Demolished.

[Morgan]

Do you think that's why you didn't end up liking basketball, or were you just not good at it?

[Lunchbox]

I just wasn't good. I mean, I was tiny. Like, I was so small that it didn't matter. Like, then I played the next year, and I was on the Chicago Bulls, and we went undefeated.

[Morgan]

Why do they all have the NBA teams? It's really throwing me off.

[Lunchbox]

It was awesome. It was A.J. bright, Russell Valdez.

[Morgan]

How did you also go from the not winning a single game to winning every game?

[Lunchbox]

Well, I mean, you're not on the same team, so it was really your.

[Morgan]

Teammates, but you still sucked.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, yeah, I mean, we. Let me tell you. Let me just name the team we had. AJ Bright, Russell Valdez, Ben Noyes, Travis Parks, Brett Acock, Me Britannia Green, Michael Tipton.

[Morgan]

You're saying these names? Like, this matters? I just mean, like, I don't know who any of those people are.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, we had 10 players, and I just named you, like, nine of them.

[Morgan]

It's impressive that you can name them, I'll give you that. But, like, that does me no good, because I have zero idea.

[Lunchbox]

It was awesome. It was so cool. And we ran, like, Jordan. Jordan. We would name real Chicago Bulls players. Pippin. Pippin.

[Morgan]

So funny.

[Lunchbox]

And that's how we'd run it. And I talked to my dad the other day. He was the assistant coach. And he was. Because my kids are playing basketball now. And he was like, you guys, we run plays and we'd call plays. He goes, you know what would drive us, would just drive us nuts. I was like, no. He goes, if we called Pippen, even if someone broke wide open over here by the basket, you would only. You guys would only pass it to the person that was supposed to. When the play was called. Like, you're supposed to pass it over here and they're supposed to pass it over somewhere else instead of just passing to a wide open person.

[Morgan]

You guys were very structured in your place.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Morgan]

So you didn't have a lot of. What's the word I'm looking for here? There wasn't a lot of just winging it. You. If you saw a better thing happening.

[Lunchbox]

Yes. We still just stuck to the play. But I'm going to tell you, in we had the Twin Towers. Ben Noyes and Travis Parks.

[Morgan]

You got to stop saying their names unless they became professional athletes or something. I have no idea who these people are.

[Lunchbox]

No. I don't know what they came from exactly. I haven't seen them in how many years? But they were the Twin Towers down low. And I mean, we just. They'd get every. Get so many rebounds. They were. They were great.

[Morgan]

You know, it's funny, when I played basketball, I was very. I was very spicy. Like, I was good at being very scrappy and, like, kind of running up because I was little, much like you're talking about. But it was so funny. I would always get fouls. Like, I would foul people because I'd grab them and hug them trying to get the ball because I didn't want to be mean. And that's how I try and get the ball from them.

[Lunchbox]

Interesting.

[Morgan]

So I wasn't very good at stealing the ball sneakily. I just kind of had a big hug and knock it out of their hands.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, so you're one of those people.

[Morgan]

Yeah, I failed a lot, but I was trying to help my team steal the ball, but I didn't want to be mean.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I mean, we had that experience a couple weeks ago when we were playing a game. The other team, one guy on their team, he got real mad at this girl on our team because she was guarding him, and he just took two hands straight to her chest and shoved her down. And then. And then baby box two was going to get a loose ball, and the guy grabbed him by the jersey. Then the next down the court. Oh, you want to see him?

[Morgan]

He did a Morgan he grabbed and hugged.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, he didn't grab and hug. He did grab and tackle.

[Morgan]

Okay. I didn't tackle anybody.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, no, no. He tackled.

[Morgan]

I was giving free hugs.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, it was hilarious. I mean, he's trying to get away, and he is just getting. I'm trying to pull the video up.

[Morgan]

Okay, here. We'll take a quick break. You get the video up.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, it's coming. It's coming.

[Morgan]

I know, but we gotta take a break.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, we gotta take a break.

[Morgan]

So hold on.

This is Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli. The five families did not want us.

[Morgan]

To shoot that picture.

[Nathan King]

Leave the Gun Take the Cannoli is based on my co host Mark's best selling book of the same title. And on this show we call upon his years of research to help unpack the story behind the Godfather's birth. From start to finish, this is really.

[Lunchbox]

The first interview I've done in bed.

[Nathan King]

We sift through innumerable accounts. 35 pages isn't very much, many of them conflicting.

[Lunchbox]

That's nonsense.

[Nathan King]

There were 60 pages and try to get to the truth of what really happened.

[Lunchbox]

And they said, we're finished. This is over. Not only is not going to work.

[Morgan]

You gotta get rid of those guys. It's disaster.

[Nathan King]

Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli features new and archival interviews with Francis Ford Coppola, Robert Evans, James Caan, Talia Shire and many others.

[Morgan]

All right. Did you find the video? Do we have Baby Box two? Wait, did Baby Box two get tackled?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah, he's the one that gets tackled. He doesn't. And he was getting so annoyed and this kid just freaking tackled. And where is it? Man, this guy.

[Morgan]

We took a break. Lunchbox. It's okay, we can come back to it.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no. I mean, listen, I am just so good at scrolling my phone to find it.

[Morgan]

Well, I can tell you I did so I also when I did competitive softball, that was my favorite sport. I wish I would have pursued that one. I'm having one of my old athletes on my podcast, her and I.

[Lunchbox]

One of your old athletes? One of your old teammates? Yeah.

[Morgan]

Sorry, words are really hard for me. I want. Trust.

[Lunchbox]

Words are hard for everybody. I'm telling you.

[Morgan]

No, but this morning, I tried to put mascara on my lips. Okay, that's not good. I'm not functioning 100%, so things are a little wonky. But one of my old softball teammates, she was.

[Lunchbox]

And look at these ballers. Ballers.

[Morgan]

They are. Ball lunchbox showing me a picture of all the baby boxes, and they're all adorable.

[Lunchbox]

They're ballers. I mean, those pants. I mean, look at those shorts. You can't even see his body.

[Morgan]

They can't see them.

[Lunchbox]

Look at it. You can't even see his body.

[Morgan]

No, he. The other ones have, like, regular on, and one of them has, like, shorts that go down to his ankles.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, those are the shorts that Lee gave you.

[Morgan]

That's what they give them.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Morgan]

They're not even. Oh, my goodness. Okay. Anyway, so I had one of my old teammates on. She was on Team usa. She played for the Florida Gators, won two State Champions Championship.

[Lunchbox]

She was on the USA team for what?

[Morgan]

For the Olympics.

[Lunchbox]

That's legit.

[Morgan]

She was really awesome. So I have her coming on my podcast at some point, but her and I played competitively on the Mustangs back in Wichita for a long time. What was her name? Kelsey Stewart.

[Lunchbox]

See? Thank you. You gotta throw names out there.

[Morgan]

I know, but you don't know them. That doesn't help you.

[Lunchbox]

No, but it's fun. You know what's fun?

[Morgan]

What is?

[Lunchbox]

To say names, like, everybody should know who they are. Like, that is the most fun thing. I love that. And it is fun to, like, the three degrees of separation.

[Morgan]

Yeah. Like somebody knows somebody.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Like, it's like you just say it and somehow it gets back to them.

[Morgan]

You're not wrong. I'll give you that. But when you lift it off, the whole team, I'm definitely not gonna remember any of those.

[Lunchbox]

Right, I get that. No, I understand. You won't remember that. But it's like when we first started, and my first. My girlfriend in second grade, Tracy Prolop. Right.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

I had. I hadn't seen her. I mean, I don't know when the last time. Probably maybe fourth grade.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

And then I gave her a shout out and it got back to her, and she, you know, boom, hit me up. You know what I mean? Like, things like that.

[Morgan]

Is this how you end up messaging people on Facebook? Is like, you said something one time and then they reached back out and now you're talking to them again.

[Lunchbox]

Some people. Yeah, some. I mean, because It's. It's. You think the world is really big, right?

[Morgan]

No, it's every. There is. To your point, there is third degree of separation somewhere, right?

[Lunchbox]

Exactly. But the world really is very small.

[Morgan]

Oh, that was so wise of you.

[Lunchbox]

I know, because it's crazy how you think.

[Morgan]

I don't think I've ever heard you say something so philosophical.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I just say that because.

[Morgan]

No, and the way it was, the way you said it, too, is the delivery of his. You think the world is so big, but really everything is very small.

[Lunchbox]

You're right.

[Morgan]

That's how you said it.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, here we go.

[Morgan]

He's still been looking for this video the whole time. Guys, this is what happens when you put Lunchbox on his phone.

[Lunchbox]

Are you ready? You ready? Let's see. Here it goes.

[Morgan]

You keep saying you're ready, but you're not pulling it up.

[Lunchbox]

I'm pulling it up. Hold on. We gotta get there.

[Morgan]

Okay. We gotta put your noise up to the mic while you show me so at least they can hear it.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, look at this. Watch this. Look at the physicality of this.

[Morgan]

This is phone time with all the time.

[Lunchbox]

Look, watch this girl just shove the dud.

[Morgan]

Oh, yeah, she did. She definitely pushed.

[Lunchbox]

Get ready, get ready, get ready. He's about to get tackled.

[Morgan]

Oh. Oh, yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

It's a lot more gentler than when I was in sixth grade and I was hugging.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. But, yeah, he wouldn't let him up, man. Come on, Rep. No. Geez.

[Morgan]

Listen. Gotta do what you gotta do to get the ball sometimes, you know?

[Lunchbox]

I mean, here's his problem, this ref. In this league, he's just there to get money.

[Morgan]

Well, yeah, no crap. He's. Did you.

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Morgan]

How old are they? What age is that?

[Lunchbox]

Four to six.

[Morgan]

Yeah. He doesn't care if they're gonna win. They don't care if they're gonna win.

[Lunchbox]

It's not talking about winning. Like he just blows the whistle. He doesn't.

[Morgan]

Okay. If you were him, wouldn't you also be doing the same thing?

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no. You're not even letting me finish in the sentence. What am I gonna say next?

[Morgan]

That he was not even paying attention, didn't really make any calls. He'd just blow the whistle whenever something might happen.

[Lunchbox]

The ball, right of bounds, he would just blow the whistle and just hold the ball there. And he wouldn't say whose ball was. And we're all just like, huh? And he's like, huh. I'm like, whose ball is it, man? Like, it's a running clock. You Gotta say which way it's going.

[Morgan]

He really was there. Just check in, check out, check in.

[Lunchbox]

Get paid, check out. Like it was so.

[Morgan]

But you probably had that point of your job. I mean, how old is he?

[Lunchbox]

He's a man.

[Morgan]

Like man, man. Like he's 30s, probably 50. Oh, he's old, man.

[Lunchbox]

He ain't old.

[Morgan]

Well, okay, to those kids he is. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like everything is relative with age.

[Lunchbox]

I am saying like he, he wouldn't even like the one game, he didn't even tell us the game was starting. I'm sitting there talking to my team and he just hands the ball to the other team and they start dribbling on the court. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa. And like when the two handed shove happened, he didn't even call it. I had to go up the kid, be like, whoa, whoa, we can't do that. And then he came over like, we can't do that.

[Morgan]

You know, maybe. Poor guy's just been through it and he really. This really is like the bottom of the barrel for him.

[Lunchbox]

No, it's not even bottom of the barrel. It's just, hey, it's a side gig, probably on the weekends. He's like, man, I'll just show up and I. What do I care?

[Morgan]

You should talk to him sometime, see if you can get a little bit of a story.

[Lunchbox]

Okay.

[Morgan]

Maybe it'll make him feel a little bit better about refereeing.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I used to referee. Come on.

[Morgan]

I know, but maybe get into it. Maybe there's a reason he's just not.

[Lunchbox]

You know, I mean, not really. I mean, really, at 4 and 6 to 4 to 6 year old basketball, you could call. I mean, you'd have to blow the whistle every two seconds. I get that, but at least tell me whose ball it is. It drove me nut. He would blow the whistle and then just hold the ball out in his palm. That doesn't help me or the kids know whose ball it is.

[Morgan]

Are you coaching? Is this yourself? Yeah. Did you start coaching this year? Is this your first year coaching?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it's our first year of basketball.

[Morgan]

Are you having fun?

[Lunchbox]

It was a blast.

[Morgan]

With basketball being the one sport that you weren't super good at.

[Lunchbox]

I wasn't good at baseball either.

[Morgan]

Oh, well, okay. I wasn't gonna, I wasn't gonna knock you down on all of them. But why did you decide to go to basketball?

[Lunchbox]

Why not just.

[Morgan]

Are you just gonna coach everything? Even if it wasn't your vibe? Okay, I don't know how it works because you're talking like the referees, you know, if they're not super good, like, what if the coach is super good?

[Lunchbox]

I mean, just point which direction? I don't care if you get the call right or wrong, just point a direction so we know whose ball it is.

[Morgan]

I hear you, but like, you know at least enough about basketball, I'm assuming to then do some try and do plays and stuff like that. Or at this point are you not.

[Lunchbox]

Even doing that at this age? You're not doing plays. You're literally just trying to get them to go the right direction.

[Morgan]

Okay. You're kind of just a really big advocate and cheerleader for them.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. And you just try to get them to dribble the ball. And that's really the most important part. Like we played one time.

[Morgan]

Do you do little drills with basketball, like to dribble?

[Lunchbox]

Listen, my practices, there is no shooting.

[Morgan]

What do you do at practice?

[Lunchbox]

Dribble.

[Morgan]

That's all you do, dribble. Why don't you guys shoot? Ever? I mean, shooting's part of the game.

[Lunchbox]

No, it doesn't matter because 90% of your shots aren't making it to the hoop.

[Morgan]

So all you're doing is dribbling, dribble, dribble. How long are these practices?

[Lunchbox]

45 minutes to an hour.

[Morgan]

And all you guys do is dribble, dribble. I know those. Could take those practices.

[Lunchbox]

And then we pass, and then we pass, and then we dribble some more. And then we dribble some more.

[Morgan]

Why don't you do like 10 minutes of shooting at least?

[Lunchbox]

Just something you don't need to.

[Morgan]

How are they ever gonna get better at shooting?

[Lunchbox]

They'll get older and they'll get where they can make it to the hoop. At this age, 90% of them can't make it up to the hoop.

[Morgan]

So you're telling me that the score of these games is like 03?

[Lunchbox]

Final score, last game for nothing.

[Morgan]

Oh, that's so boring.

[Lunchbox]

No, it's not. It is not boring. There's action packed edge, your seat drama.

[Morgan]

Nothing about that sounds action packed.

[Lunchbox]

And see, that's the thing.

[Morgan]

How long are the games?

[Lunchbox]

Four, six minute quarters. Okay, 24 minutes.

[Morgan]

Okay, but how long does it actually go?

[Lunchbox]

Probably five minutes because it's a running clock.

[Morgan]

Oh. They don't ever stop the clock. So it really does last about 30 minutes.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it's really fast. Okay, but I mean, here's the thing. We played a team our last game, they practiced at the same time on the opposite end of the gym as us. And you know what they practiced? They practiced passing and shooting. That's all they practiced. Game time. All their kids did was grab the ball and run around with it. Never knew they had to dribble the ball.

[Morgan]

Okay, so wait, who won?

[Lunchbox]

We did four. Nothing.

[Morgan]

You guys are the ones with the four.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Who made the two shots?

[Lunchbox]

That's the greatest beauty part of this whole story. Got a girl on our team. Won't name her. Let's just say beginning of the year, she couldn't get the ball to the net.

[Morgan]

Now she can. Little layups.

[Lunchbox]

No. No layups. There's no lay. They don't know how to do a layup. They don't know how to do a layup.

[Morgan]

Listen, I have faith.

[Lunchbox]

And she gets it. She shoots off a rebound. She got the rebound. Goes up. Shoots it. And it goes in two.

[Morgan]

Nothing.

[Lunchbox]

The Nets are winning. The Nets are up to nothing.

[Morgan]

You guys are called the Nets?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Brooklyn Nets.

[Morgan]

What is with all of them? Becomes it, really. Why would he call names?

[Lunchbox]

Well, it's just like in. In baseball, you want to be a professional team because him on tv.

[Morgan]

Okay. You know, I just thought it'd be fun to, like, make up a team name, though, more than somebody else's.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I. Sometimes we do do that.

[Morgan]

Okay, you said do.

[Lunchbox]

Do, do, do. I. So she, like, after practice, she'd sit there and practice. We'd practice shooting. Practice shooting. And she started getting it. Started getting it. And then she made it in the game. And, I mean, we went bananas. And afterwards, I asked her parents. I'm like, did you guys see it? And they're like, we saw the end of it. So they must have been looking at little brother or something. Yeah. Yeah.

[Morgan]

That's funny. But it was her. She made both the shots.

[Lunchbox]

No, she made one.

[Morgan]

Oh, yeah?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

It sounded like she made both of them.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, she just made one. Made one. But I was awesome. Like, I mean, it was great.

[Morgan]

Well, what about the other two points?

[Lunchbox]

The other two points? I think it was another kid on the team. He's made a couple of baskets before. I mean, I. So him. His problem was he wanted me. He'd be a. Like, before practice and before the games, he'd be playing with his sister, and his sister's older. He's real aggressive. But then once he got in the game, he'd be all kind of. And I told him one day, I said, hey, with three games left to go in the season, hey, you think you could play as hard as an aggressive as you do against your sister? Yeah, Yeah, I can try that. Made a basket, that game. I mean, it was just like, come on, man.

[Morgan]

I wonder why he didn't want to. That's funny.

[Lunchbox]

It's just you get in there and it's like, oh, because you're familiar with your family, your sister, your brother. So you play a little bit harder when you're out there with strangers. Sometimes you get like, eh. So, yeah, I was a great.

[Morgan]

That's how I was in sixth grade. I didn't want to hurt anybody.

[Lunchbox]

It was great, man. It was so fun. And then, yeah, it was a great season. We. We talked about it all over on the Sore Losers. I mean, I recap all the game. Every game.

[Morgan]

I recapped it, the practices, every single game.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah.

[Morgan]

Oh, dear.

[Lunchbox]

No, there's excitement.

[Morgan]

I'm not laughing at you. I'm laughing with you. But you're not laughing.

[Lunchbox]

There's nothing funny.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, we talk about draining shots. I mean, here's the crazy part. I had no idea how good we were going to be or how bad we were going to be. I mean, there was a scandal in the league. You can go listen to Sore Losers from maybe this month, this past Monday. I mean, Scandal in the League Drama day. Maybe it was last Friday. It was last Friday's episode. Maybe.

[Morgan]

Okay. Yeah, okay. We'll go listen to Sore Losers. We're going to take a quick break. We'll come back, we'll stop talking about it.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, also, I did play basketball in seventh grade. I forgot I left off the bowl. I played on the bowls. Undefeated. Named the team, you know. Yeah, Chad was the. The tenth guy. Chad. Chad Garvin.

[Morgan]

Thank you, Chad Garvin, for this information. I will sleep better at night.

[Lunchbox]

That's crazy. I can name all 10 players that run my Bulls team. How wild is that?

[Morgan]

Okay, we're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back.

And they said we're finished. This is over. It only is not going to work.

[Morgan]

You gotta get rid of those guys.

[Nathan King]

This is that Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli features new and archival interviews with Francis Ford Coppola, Robert Evans, James Caan, Talia Shire, and many others.

[Lunchbox]

Yes, that was a real horse's head.

[Katherine Legge]

I wanted a way to do something that I loved for the rest of my life.

[Lunchbox]

Life.

[Nathan King]

We're also hearing how leaders brought their businesses out of unprecedented times, like Stefan Bonsell, CEO of Moderna. It becomes a human decision to decide to throw by the window your business.

[Morgan]

All right, well, besides sports, I want to talk about something. So you know how the Oscars just happened?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

It's okay if you didn't watch. We're not talking about Oscars.

[Lunchbox]

To say you are looking at the wrong person if you think I even turned it on my tv.

[Morgan]

No, I. I also didn't watch. I was watching on social media, but I saw, like, all these celebrities celebrating after they won their Oscars, and they all had different versions of what that celebrating would look like. Like, one went in their gown to in and out, and they're eating a burger. Another one was in a hotel room and they had two giant bowls of French fries that they were in their hotel room eating, like, in their sweats.

[Lunchbox]

Okay.

[Morgan]

If you won an award, like we've won the CMA before, if you won an award and it was the first one ever, what would you celebrate? Like, how would you celebrate after that happens?

[Lunchbox]

I mean, an Oscar is different because you're. It's a huge party, so there's something going on. You're not gonna just go back to your hotel room? I mean, I've never Even thought about it. So I have no idea.

[Morgan]

I mean, I know this is. It's a random question.

[Lunchbox]

I'd probably go out somewhere and set it at my table. If I go to dinner or if.

[Morgan]

I go have drinks, would you go baller? Like, would you go rent and have a VIP booth at a bar or something and have a big party? Or are you more like, I'm gonna go home and like, just.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I'm not going home. No, why would you go home? The point is to go out and celebrate.

[Morgan]

Everybody had different celebrations. That's why I'm asking.

[Lunchbox]

Like, the In N out, that's probably a paid sponsorship. Like, so let's be real. I mean, just think about it. That's just dumb.

[Morgan]

Okay? Some people love in and out. I love Taco Bell. No, no, no, you wouldn't have to pay me. I'd go there.

[Lunchbox]

No, you wouldn't go there after you won your CMA or you won an Oscar.

[Morgan]

I actually have gone to Taco Bell after we've won.

[Lunchbox]

Well, CMA is different because you've won. I'm talking if you went to Oscars, you're not gonna be like, first thing, I'm gonna go to the Taco Bell. Like, that's not.

[Morgan]

Yeah, I'm gonna be honest. Well, I mean, I shouldn't say that. I mean, this past email, I was out all night, so I shouldn't say I didn't do something. I've pulled an all nighter that night.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, see, like, that's what I mean. I don't. I just. I mean, I've never even put any thought into it because it's like, I've never been up for a major award.

[Morgan]

I mean, but CMA's are a major award. Okay. If you win an Oscar by yourself.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I'm going out.

[Morgan]

Go party. Party it up. You gotta buy shots for everyone. Or are you gonna use that Oscar?

[Lunchbox]

No, no, everybody's gonna buy you stuff because you won and they're gonna celebrate you. It's like, I would go somewhere where there's a long line and I'd walk out of the front and they'd be like, oh, sorry, you can't get. And I'll just hold up my Oscar and be like, all right, yeah, come on in.

[Morgan]

You think that actually work? Like that's your flashtag?

[Lunchbox]

Yes, but I don't know if there's even lines after the Oscar. I have no idea. It's all private parties anyway.

[Morgan]

I was gonna say probably. They're already on all the list.

[Lunchbox]

All Private parties.

[Morgan]

If you're nominated, you're on every single. Is that a crazy life to think of, though? You know what I mean?

[Lunchbox]

Think about what?

[Morgan]

Like you're.

[Lunchbox]

You're on a list.

[Morgan]

No, you think of all the famous actors and artists and all kinds of things, and you get nominated for an Oscar and you're invited to just every party that is the biggest party of the year. You know what I mean? In that life.

[Lunchbox]

In that life.

[Morgan]

And you show up and anybody of who's. Who is there.

[Lunchbox]

But there's so many people that are there.

[Morgan]

I know, but, like, what do you think? That's like, pretty awesome. All people that are, like, majorly famous and you're just in a room with all of them.

[Lunchbox]

Pretty awesome, right? Yeah.

[Morgan]

Like, I always see the Vanity Fair. The after party for Vanity Fair is the one that always intrigues me because almost everybody goes to it after the Oscars or whatever.

[Lunchbox]

So it must be the main party.

[Morgan]

It is. I think it is, like the Oscars. True after party. And that one always just intrigues me because you never really hear you. I think I've seen a few photos that have, like, come out from it. We never really hear that party. But yeah, just you think about sitting next to all those people that you've watched on screens for years, and this is just this massive room and they're all in one room for one night now.

[Lunchbox]

I get it. Like, yeah, if you're a new actor, but if you're like Tom Hanks, it's the same people you see all the time.

[Morgan]

It is true.

[Lunchbox]

And it's like an athlete. It's sort of like an athlete if you get to go to the All Star Games.

[Morgan]

Maybe it's because if we look at athletes and actors, it seems more cool to us. Cause we've been around a lot of artists at ACMs or CMAs, and we've been in the room with all of them. It feels like we've seen them a lot. Maybe it's that same experience for them.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

But it feels weird to me because we haven't ever met any of those people.

[Lunchbox]

I think that's probably what it is. Cause, like, the artists we were around and everybody's like, oh, my gosh. And I'm like, what's the big deal?

[Morgan]

It is true. But that's also why all of your backstage, behind the scenes content, everybody loves. Cause they want to see the artists, they want to see what's happening.

[Lunchbox]

And I'm just like, all right, yeah, here's an artist. What's up. And artists, I think sometimes artists think it's weird, but whatever. Yeah, right.

[Morgan]

It's strange. Listen, everything about, like, celebrity, everything about life is strange. Yeah, that's true. You were getting philosophical again. Did you go to, like, a Phil. Like, you take a degree in philosophy over the last week or something?

[Lunchbox]

No. I mean, there's life. I mean, if you think about it, life is the weirdest thing in the world. I mean, it's so weird.

[Morgan]

It is, but tell me more.

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. I don't have. I mean, I'm just saying it's so weird. Like, it's just weird. It is weird how it works.

[Morgan]

Yeah. It's funny how nothing but everything makes sense at the same time.

[Lunchbox]

Does anything make sense?

[Morgan]

That's what I said, nothing. But also everything makes sense.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, but you said everything does.

[Morgan]

Make sense, but everything also doesn't.

[Lunchbox]

What makes sense? Nothing makes sense. None of it.

[Morgan]

It doesn't. But also it does. In the grand scheme of things, it.

[Lunchbox]

Doesn'T make sense that our. We close our eyes and we go to sleep and we just automatically wake up. That is. How does that work?

[Morgan]

Oh, you want to talk about, like, really blowing my mind? All the. All the stuff with the vertigo blows my mind. The fact that this exists, that everybody can just wake up one day and decide, I'm not gonna walk with gravity today. You wanna talk about, like, something that's truly blown my mind?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Well, that's weird.

[Morgan]

That's what I'm saying. Like, so it has made me see it, but also everything does make sense in a way. When you look back on your life, like, you're 99 years old and you look back on your life, it will have made sense.

[Lunchbox]

Okay.

[Morgan]

But while you're in it, it doesn't, I guess.

[Lunchbox]

No, you don't.

[Morgan]

You don't get that.

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Morgan]

Like, everything happened for different reasons. And you can kind of piece together the puzzles when you're looking back at the. When you have all the information.

[Lunchbox]

I don't like that. I don't like that talk.

[Morgan]

That's a good thing. You're looking back on a really good.

[Lunchbox]

No, because you're talking about maybe about dying. I'm not.

[Morgan]

I know you're really. You have a thing about death.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah. Who doesn't?

[Morgan]

Well, it's also just a natural part of life, though. Okay. I always find the one thing you can't talk about.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Hey, did you watch Apple Cider Vinegar yet?

[Morgan]

No. Did you watch paradise yet?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know what that Is.

[Morgan]

You know what? I did start based on your recommendation, and I have not liked it. I've watched, like, four episodes calling from accounts.

[Lunchbox]

You don't like it?

[Morgan]

No, I'm on, like, episode four, and I'm like, what am I watching?

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Morgan]

Yeah, I know. I had a feeling you'd have that.

[Lunchbox]

How did you not. How do you not like it?

[Morgan]

I don't know if it's just too indie for me.

[Lunchbox]

Indie? It ain't indie at all. It's hilarious.

[Morgan]

No, it's indie.

[Lunchbox]

Let me. Let me. Okay, let me just pull up the text messages then. I mean, if I gotta do it.

[Morgan]

What text messages?

[Lunchbox]

I mean, gosh.

[Morgan]

Wait, I don't know what text messages you're doing.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, that's exactly. That's why I'll tell you.

[Morgan]

I mean, you're not wrong, though. I mean, on Rotten Tomatoes, it has an insane score. Like, 100%. Literally.

[Lunchbox]

I mean.

[Morgan]

I mean, how long did it take you to get into it?

[Lunchbox]

About two minutes.

[Morgan]

Oh, yeah. No, I'm like, four episodes in the.

[Lunchbox]

Very beginning, when she's out for a walk and she's walking across the street.

[Morgan]

Maybe it's just because it's not my sense of humor.

[Lunchbox]

What's your sense of home? You don't like funny?

[Morgan]

I like funny. I love funny stuff. Maybe this one just doesn't do it for me.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my gosh.

[Morgan]

I mean, like, New Girl is one of my favorite shows, but New Girl doesn't do it for everybody. Maybe that's kind of the similarity.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my God. I can't believe. Okay, here we go. From Josh and Mary.

[Morgan]

Oh, I was like. I thought you were pulling up text for me. I was like, did I say something about calling from accounts?

[Lunchbox]

Josh and Mary, we went to dinner with them, and we're talking about shows.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

And we said, calling from accounts. And they said, we'll try it when we get home. They get home that night. Oh, my God. Watching Calling from Accounts and how blank in the bathtub. I haven't heard Josh laugh that loud in forever. That means they loved it.

[Morgan]

I'm not saying it's not.

[Lunchbox]

Let me. Let me go. Let me go to.

[Morgan]

Sorry.

[Lunchbox]

Let me go to Mickey.

[Morgan]

Oh, boy. I hit a nerve.

[Lunchbox]

Let me go to Mickey.

[Morgan]

I wanted to like it, especially because, you know, the dog. And you told me I'd be okay to watch it because the dog doesn't die.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Let's see.

[Morgan]

And that's not a spoiler because there's the does the dog die? Ww.com thing.

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Morgan]

You can go to dogs. Does the dog die.com. and see if a dog dies in TV show or movie before you watch.

[Lunchbox]

Why would you do that?

[Morgan]

Because I don't like seeing. Why would you die?

[Lunchbox]

Why would you.

[Morgan]

I can't watch things die out. I will immediately stop watching a show or movie if it happens.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, there we go. Mickey and Carla. Colin from Accounts is hilarious. Great recommendation.

[Morgan]

I mean, okay, but maybe all these people, they're your friends.

[Lunchbox]

These are people that have a sense of humor.

[Morgan]

I have.

[Lunchbox]

I have not. I'm not that one.

[Morgan]

I hang out with you all the time.

[Lunchbox]

I have not met one person in the history of my life.

[Morgan]

I don't know what to tell you.

[Lunchbox]

That does not like calling from Accounts.

[Morgan]

I don't know. I'm like, four episodes in, so it's not like I haven't given it a shot. I was just like, I wanna.

[Lunchbox]

I wanna ask questions, but I don't wanna ruin episodes, so I can't even.

[Morgan]

Maybe you hyped it up too much for me, though.

[Lunchbox]

No, there's no. No, I hyped it up the same for everybody.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

It is fantastic.

[Morgan]

All right. I don't know. I tried. I tried for you. You told me to watch it, and I tried.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my gosh.

[Morgan]

Like, I did get some chuckles out, but it just wasn't. I don't know.

[Lunchbox]

You didn't get.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

At the end of the first episode, you didn't laugh out loud.

[Morgan]

Tell me your favorite top three favorite comedy movies. I bet. I like all of them.

[Lunchbox]

I have no idea. I don't know.

[Morgan]

Well, it's like you grew up in. These are favorite comedy movies you liked. Like, I love all the Adam Sandler stuff. I love Will Ferrell. I love comedy. I like. I like comedians.

[Lunchbox]

You don't like comedy. If you don't like calling from Accounts, you are the only person in the history of the world.

[Morgan]

This might be too dry for me. I have noticed. I don't love dry humor if it's, like, super, super dry.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, it is. Gosh, it's so funny. It is so. I mean, I'm. I am. I feel so sorry for you. I feel so sorry for you.

[Morgan]

I wanted to like it. It is possible. I did also start it when I was sitting, like, out to Vertigo.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, see, now, this is.

[Morgan]

But I started a lot of things and I ended up liking them. So, I mean, I started paradise when I had Vertigo.

[Lunchbox]

It probably hurt to laugh.

[Morgan]

No, it didn't hurt to laugh. I would have laughed. And if I couldn't laugh. I would have just turned it off.

[Lunchbox]

Because, I mean, if you're not laughing out loud in the first 10 minutes of that show, I mean, it's hilarious. When she walks around the ca and goes, I mean, that's hilarious.

[Morgan]

Like, I don't know. I don't know what to tell you. I tried.

[Lunchbox]

Like, you didn't think that was funny.

[Morgan]

Like, it was fine.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my gosh. Like, at the end of the first episode when he.

[Morgan]

I. That part was funny.

[Lunchbox]

That's hilarious.

[Morgan]

He's telling me things he doesn't want to spoil for anybody.

[Lunchbox]

I don't want to spoil it.

[Morgan]

That part was funny. I'm not saying there wasn't funny moments.

[Lunchbox]

What about the bathtub?

[Morgan]

I have set off a nerve. Yes, the bathtub.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my gosh. I mean.

[Morgan]

Oh, they were.

[Lunchbox]

It was. That's it. That's it.

[Morgan]

It was funny.

[Lunchbox]

No, you just don't like it.

[Morgan]

It just wasn't so funny. Okay, I'm sorry.

[Lunchbox]

Thanks for having us. You watch White Lotus.

[Morgan]

I also tried to get into.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my God.

[Morgan]

I think we have different. I don't think you and I have the same.

[Lunchbox]

If it doesn't have a dumb superhero in it, you don't like it. Or aliens. If it's not aliens or superheroes, Morgan is out.

[Morgan]

True.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my gosh. White Lotus. Did you watch season one?

[Morgan]

I am on episode one, so I haven't given it a full fair shot yet. Oh, my gosh.

[Lunchbox]

All right. I just don't.

[Morgan]

I just don't. I don't like dry humor.

[Lunchbox]

Is that dry humor? What is dry humor about that?

[Morgan]

Well, it's really calling for my accountants.

[Lunchbox]

But they're like, what is dry humor?

[Morgan]

Dry humor to me is like. It could be funny to somebody, but it's probably not gonna be funny to everybody. Dry humor is like. It has a niche audience.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man. Go, go, go to calling from council. Let's go check that rotten tomatoes.

[Morgan]

I already told you, it has 100. Like, I'm 100 in the. In the.

[Lunchbox]

In the wrong. Yeah, I'm glad you admitted you said in the wrong.

[Morgan]

I said in the, and then I did not finish.

[Lunchbox]

Thank you. Thank you.

[Morgan]

I am in the lesser amount of people on this, and I can acknowledge that.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man.

[Morgan]

I don't know why.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, that's cool. What else you got?

[Morgan]

It is hard to make me laugh, though, sometimes too.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, because you don't have a good sense of humor. That may be your problem.

[Morgan]

Oh, shut up. No, it's not.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man. That's.

[Morgan]

I giggle at the stupidest. Are you kidding me? I giggle at the stupidest jokes.

[Lunchbox]

I gotta write that down.

[Morgan]

I laugh at all my dad's dad jokes. I laugh at your guys dad jokes.

[Lunchbox]

I don't have a dad joke.

[Morgan]

You guys do dad jokes all the time.

[Lunchbox]

I haven't done a dad joke in my life.

[Morgan]

Not like you're forgetting. It's not like a dad joke. Like you're telling a joke. You make a joke about being a dad. It's a thing.

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Morgan]

And you guys do it. And I always laugh about it.

[Lunchbox]

You always say any joke we make. You're like such a dad joke. Just cause we're dads.

[Morgan]

You also couldn't hang out with me if I didn't have a sense of humor. You and I would not get along.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I'm starting to rethink my whole life.

[Morgan]

Are you?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

You and I. No, no, no. This is. This is what you're. This is the key part you're missing about this lunchbox. You and I literally could not hang out every day and actually get along as well as we do, man. If I did not allow humor in my life.

[Lunchbox]

Geez. And here I thought you were a normal person. And now I have.

[Morgan]

Okay, I have never been that mean to you about what you hated on my movie. Remember when I made you watch Black Panther and you came on.

[Lunchbox]

No, I didn't say it.

[Morgan]

You hated it. You're like, this is the stupidest movie.

[Lunchbox]

I didn't say that. No, you're wrong.

[Morgan]

I watched it.

[Lunchbox]

You're wrong. You have my review all wrong. You heard that? Maybe that was your vertigo statement.

[Morgan]

That's what you're hearing right now. No, I did not say I hate it. I just said it's not for me.

[Lunchbox]

It was fine.

[Morgan]

Yeah, you're like, but who cares? Why does everybody watch superhero stuff? We just have different tastes in TV shows and movies. Yeah, that's okay.

[Lunchbox]

I can't watch all the superheroes. There's too many of them. They're very confusing and their worlds intertwine. I don't understand the story. I mean.

[Morgan]

And I like complexities of that. And you like Black Panther was good.

[Lunchbox]

Black Panther was fine. It was not anything. It wasn't the most.

[Morgan]

Like when it first came out of five.

[Lunchbox]

When it first came out, everybody's like, this is the greatest movie of all time. It's so good.

[Morgan]

It was really good. When it came out, it was good.

[Lunchbox]

But there wasn't enough fighting.

[Morgan]

See, but this is where we differ.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I like to laugh.

[Morgan]

Doesn't mean, I don't.

[Lunchbox]

I like to live in reality.

[Morgan]

I laugh at New Girl all the time. I laugh at Friends all the time.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it's better than Friends.

[Morgan]

Funny. You funny.

[Lunchbox]

No, I know you didn't like Seinfeld. Oh, man.

[Morgan]

I didn't see. I think it's just different. We have very. We both have humor. It's just different kinds.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Do you like Everybody that Loves Raymond?

[Morgan]

I don't think I ever watched that one.

[Lunchbox]

Okay. Did you watch the middle? Did you watch Modern Family?

[Morgan]

Yes, both of those.

[Lunchbox]

I like Modern Family was good in the beginning. It got terrible at the end.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

So bad.

[Morgan]

I want to say I only watched, like, one season of Modern Family. I don't feel like I really walked down that hole.

[Lunchbox]

Do you watch Shrinking?

[Morgan]

No. You have told me to check that one out. Maybe I'll give that one a try.

[Lunchbox]

It's actually funny.

[Morgan]

Is it dry humor?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know what the heck dry humor means. It's funny. Do you like the Office?

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

What do you mean, yeah? Yeah. That's hilarious.

[Morgan]

I do. I watched all of the Office.

[Lunchbox]

What? I think. Okay.

[Morgan]

It's just not my favorite.

[Lunchbox]

I figured out. I figured out what you don't like.

[Morgan]

What?

[Lunchbox]

You don't like uncomfortable humor. You don't like uncomfortable.

[Morgan]

You've known that about me forever.

[Lunchbox]

That's what it is. That's the difference. Calling from accounts is uncomfortable humor.

[Morgan]

Yeah, you?

[Lunchbox]

Borat, uncomfortable humor.

[Morgan]

I liked Borat, though.

[Lunchbox]

See, that's weird.

[Morgan]

It just depends. It really depends. But you are right, I don't like uncomfortable. It's not risque. I don't mind risque. Weird things.

[Lunchbox]

It is uncomfortable.

[Morgan]

It's like when it makes you uncomfortable. That's what I don't like.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, you don't like the uncomfortable comedy.

[Morgan]

Because when we've gone out and done stuff together, when you've done. You've seen me, I literally shrink in a corner. I'm like, I don't like this feeling.

[Lunchbox]

You know, you need to look up. You need to watch Ali G. Ali G? Yeah.

[Morgan]

Like all. Like Muhammad Ali. Ali G. Like, spelled a L, I. Yeah. Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Ali G. Ali G. It's Sacha Baron Cohen. It's the same. Like Borat, like, he interviews, like, it is so funny.

[Morgan]

Okay, deadpan dry humor or dry wet humor is a deliberate display of emotional neutrality or no emotion. So it's like, you can deliver things without, like. And you know me, I can't do anything without giggling. You are like. You can do dry humor. You can do awkward Bits and not laugh about it. If you made me do that, I'd be laughing because I don't know what else to do.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I'm pretty good with the dry. Cause I get my wife and I'll tell her something and she'll be like, are you for real? I'm like, no. She'd be like, you say it so serious. Like, I don't know.

[Morgan]

Dry humor. Yeah, that's where it is. Does that help? We just have different variations. Yeah, but you did hit the nail on the head. I will. Like, I really listen.

[Lunchbox]

If you watch some clutch from Ali G, you will die.

[Morgan]

Like, because it's uncomfortable or alive because it's uncomfortable.

[Lunchbox]

And it is hilarious. Hilarious.

[Morgan]

You love that stuff.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my God.

[Morgan]

You love seeing people uncomfortable. I don't.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, it is. I can't even describe how great it was. It was so funny. So funny. I show some clips to my father in law and he hates it. He hates it. Uncomfortable. He's like, I can't, I can't. I'm like, let's watch another one. I make him watch another one. I'm another one and another one. It is so good.

[Morgan]

Is he a comedian or is he. You say clips like, is he a comedian or.

[Lunchbox]

It's a show, but you don't watch the whole show.

[Morgan]

Okay, what is happening?

[Lunchbox]

You bought a clip. Oh, man.

[Morgan]

Because you're going to make fun of me for not liking it.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man. Let me buy one. We got to watch it.

[Morgan]

Oh, boy.

[Lunchbox]

Can we play it on here?

[Morgan]

I don't think so.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man.

[Morgan]

I don't think so. Hold on. I'm going to pause this really quick. I'll watch a clip and we'll. We'll come back and.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

All right, so we can confirm. I watched two of Lunchbox's Ali G videos. Can't confirm. We have very different humor.

[Lunchbox]

I didn't even pull up the great ones. I just typed in his name and.

[Morgan]

Those came up like, I know, but it's definitely you. You hit the nail on the head. You love uncomfortable situations. Uncomfortable humor, dry humor. I don't. That is not my vibe.

[Lunchbox]

So that is so baller. And you heard him say, I used to kill.

[Morgan]

And I just don't. Like, I was really laughing because you were laughing because I was like, what is this? What is happening?

[Lunchbox]

That is laugh out of, like fall out of your chair. So funny. Like, so freaking funny.

[Morgan]

And I'm laughing because you're laughing. I'm laughing.

[Lunchbox]

You're only laughing because I'm laughing.

[Morgan]

Yeah, I'm laughing at the humor.

[Lunchbox]

Like he interviews like all those. Like the old guy that does 60 minutes. I don't even know if he's.

[Morgan]

Oh my goodness.

[Lunchbox]

Oh my God. You want to talk about.

[Morgan]

No, don't.
