Oregon Lottery Representative
In the summer, all of Oregon is our playground thanks to our incredible park system. That's why it's so cool that Oregon lottery gameplay like video lottery or cash pop helps support tons of parks projects statewide like accessible trails at Silver Falls State park or upgrades to your favorite dog park in Newburgh. It's just one way a little lottery play for many Oregonians can add up to a lot of good the Oregon Lottery. Together we do good things. Lottery games are based on chance and should be played for entertainment only. Must be 18 or older to play.

This is easy breezy, lazy music.
Big J Okerson
This is natural. Put one of them in the ground. It was so lazy.
Andy Fiori
This is hammock music if I ever heard it.
Robert Kelly
Can I just ask a question?
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Andy.
Andy Fiori
Yes.
Robert Kelly
Do you have a girlfriend?
Andy Fiori
No.
Robert Kelly
You should, because your hold.
Andy Fiori
I got a good hold.
Robert Kelly
I'm telling you right now, brother, you know how to. You know how to hold something and that.
Big J Okerson
It took him years to master that. In fact, that's why he doesn't have a girlfriend right now because he killed the last one with. He went too tight. Sometimes if he left it open, they would escape. And sometimes he squeezed them in pretty.
Andy Fiori
My ex was little, too. I could have easily crushed her.
Robert Kelly
You have such a comfortable hold.
Andy Fiori
And you know what? I got good body heat, like, at night, too.
Robert Kelly
But you know how to, like, enough pressure to feel safe.
Andy Fiori
That wasn't even my A game, really.
Big J Okerson
That was just like a casual being. Funny but not gay.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, buddy. I would have done that at a fucking Celtics game and not even thought it was gay.
Big J Okerson
Andy, Summer cut. Dude, you're ready to go.
Andy Fiori
Summer cut.
Big J Okerson

Everybody's face.
Big J Okerson
Your skin is fantastic. But Bobby, I think is early 60s.
Robert Kelly
You're a piece of garbage.
Andy Fiori
Can I tell you what I did, too? Started to phase a little. The gray out in the face. I got stuffed.
Robert Kelly
Just got the stuff.
Andy Fiori
Yeah, yeah.
Big J Okerson
I'm gonna throw it in.
Robert Kelly
I think it looks good. I noticed that.
Andy Fiori
The barber.
Robert Kelly
I'm telling you right now. I noticed it, but didn't notice it.
Andy Fiori
That's exactly what you want.
Robert Kelly
There's something. Something up with your face. I thought. Because I thought it was your trim. But you.
Andy Fiori
Here's the thing. When you go to the bar, you got to really stay on them to be like, match it good. Because.
Big J Okerson
Wait, the barber put the color.
Andy Fiori
Yeah, the barber. They call it like a beard camouflage. But, dude, day one, this is, like, almost a week now. Day one, it looked like one of those hobo costumes you had when you were a little kid, like, real thick. And I was like, oh, no. It looks like shoe polish, dog. And then the grays start to populate again. And now I think we're at a good spot.
Big J Okerson
Good spot. I'm indulgent.
Robert Kelly
That magnet game.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Andy Fiori
Just there. I'm like. I'm light blonde.
Big J Okerson
I got black. I got the black. Black guy just for men.
Andy Fiori
Really?
Big J Okerson
I'm gonna put it in.
Andy Fiori
I don't think that's the one you need.
Big J Okerson
That's the one I need. Dude. I'm gonna look. I'm gonna have that sharp Philly line like freeways.
Andy Fiori
You're a white guy. Own up to it already.
Big J Okerson
Stop. Why? Because I want to look, like, free. Because I'm gonna look like freeway.
Robert Kelly
I have the mascara one. You know, the mascara rock, dude.
Andy Fiori
That's what Mateo uses.
Robert Kelly
I have the mascara, but I. Because I don't have hair. Up top.
Big J Okerson
That's not the only thing. Bobby has it. Mateo.
Andy Fiori
Yeah. You got to be careful.
Robert Kelly
I. If I. If what?
Big J Okerson
That's not the only thing that Bobby has. Mateo uses.
Robert Kelly
You goddamn right. Mateo's dick.
Big J Okerson
Delicious lube. Yeah.
Andy Fiori
Because I don't get the hair plugs.
Robert Kelly
I don't know. He got. But you know why I got him?
Andy Fiori
Oh, yeah.
Big J Okerson
Guys.
Robert Kelly
No, I'll tell you. Because of me.
Big J Okerson
Oh.
Robert Kelly
During the pandemic, he was at the Cellar. This kind of. Before he popped off a little bit.
Big J Okerson
Nice.
Robert Kelly
We were going. We were going back and forth. He came up to me and told me this. So I'm not saying this like I'm a. Whatever. He came up and told me this is what happened. We got into a little back and forth. As you do at the table.
Andy Fiori
Yeah. Yeah.
Robert Kelly
And I was probably at my heaviest at the time. Bald.360. So 350. And he's sitting there. And I go, I. I said, listen, face. I made it looking like this. I go. I go. You go any balder and you put ten pounds on. You finished.
Andy Fiori
Cautionary tale.
Robert Kelly
You finished. I go, that fucking hairline goes back any further, you're done in the business.
Andy Fiori
I don't know. He's so ripped.
Robert Kelly
Buddy. Just kidding.
Andy Fiori
Like, abs wise.
Robert Kelly
I didn't mean it at all. I was just busting balls because he was saying some shit about my fat though, buddy. He came back, goes, robert, I got. I got hair plugs because of you. I did it because of you. Because you said that thing about my balding hair.
Big J Okerson
I'm closing my eyes. Is he here?
Andy Fiori
Because that was a hell of a tail impression.
Robert Kelly
J. I can draw. I can sing. I can do anything. I'm Matteo. La.
Big J Okerson
I can draw. I can sing.
Andy Fiori
He can draw. That kid is down.
Big J Okerson
He's.
Robert Kelly
He's multi talented and gay.
Big J Okerson
Oh, yeah. You've never even seen him play the skin flute. That's where he really. You ever see him shreddle the skin flute dude. He takes a Jethro. It's like Jethro toll on that thing. Dude. Ian Anderson, he's all. He's like. He's like early Lizzo.
Robert Kelly
He is fucking phenomenal. Yeah, yeah.
Big J Okerson
Oh, he can draw Disney characters. Surprise, surprise.
Robert Kelly
So if I get the. If I get the beard color, I'm gonna look. I'm gonna look stupid, though, because I have nothing up top.
Andy Fiori
No, that's why I think you sprinkle it in. Do the.
Robert Kelly
Sprinkle it. Yeah, I did the mascara one and I look like a magician.
Andy Fiori
I know. It's really a trial and error kind of thing.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
I have to describe this, but one of Mateo's things, he's doing a podcast. The guy has to hold his lapel mic because he has no lapel because his shirt is so gay.
Robert Kelly
I believe that's a robe. Robe shirt.
Big J Okerson
No, that's not. Oh, you think he's.
Christine
That's Nick. I love him.
Big J Okerson
Who is it?
Christine
Nick Smith?
Robert Kelly
Yeah, who is it?
Christine
That's his podcast partner.
Robert Kelly
That's Matteo's gayer friend. I don't know.
Christine
He's wildly entertaining.
Robert Kelly
Mateo is.
Big J Okerson
You think Mato calls him the F word.
Robert Kelly
Mateo's like Rogan when you watch this.
Big J Okerson
Yeah. No. So wait, that's his.
Robert Kelly
You got to hear it, though. You got to hear Matteo. And then here, gayer Mateo.
Big J Okerson
Now, is it podcast partner with a capital P on partner?
Andy Fiori
I don't think so.
Robert Kelly
No. Mateo is.
Andy Fiori
Mateo get married.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, Mateo's married. He married a guy like a very good looking other man. He married exactly what you think he would marry.
Big J Okerson
That black guy?
Robert Kelly
Nope, that's not the one.
Big J Okerson
Oh, yeah, Mateo's ass. I wonder if he got all those muscles in his ass. That guy looks black. Dick won't split him in half.
Robert Kelly
That guy looks like a black alien. Did you see him?
Andy Fiori
He didn't look right.
Big J Okerson
Yeah. Is that his husband?
Robert Kelly
Yeah, yeah.
Andy Fiori
Should we say it's a fun name.
Christine
Married.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, he's married.
Big J Okerson
He's married.
Robert Kelly
They're both fucking gorgeous.
Big J Okerson
Yo, Happy pride month, y' all.
Andy Fiori
Oh, that's right.
Big J Okerson
Oh, you didn't know.
Andy Fiori
I just forgot. We're in the midst of it now.
Big J Okerson
Your best friend DJ Lou is the grand marshal this year. The parade.
Andy Fiori
See, that's something he forgot to tell his pal Andy.
Big J Okerson
What? Why you got your scepter and everything? Wow. Sorry, Andy.
Robert Kelly
Look at that hairline. Because of me, one. One mean joke made him fix everything.
Christine
I didn't know he was ever balding.
Robert Kelly
Dude, he was.
Big J Okerson
During the pandemic I thought one day. One day. I think I put too much gel in my hair. And I can see head through hair. And a week ago, I had a thousand needles injected into my head. So it doesn't take much. Yeah, it doesn't take much to push you to that point. You go, you know what? Let me just go make sure I keep this hair. Yeah, I'm not even losing my hair. I'm just making sure I'm keeping my hair.
Andy Fiori
It thins a little, but it's fine.
Big J Okerson
It's.
Andy Fiori
When you get out of the shower. Yeah, like that.
Big J Okerson
It's gonna be fine when I'm done with this PRP treatment.
Robert Kelly
Do you think I should go get a hair transplant and just get hair one more time?
Big J Okerson
I do, yeah.
Andy Fiori
I mean, I would love to see what.
Robert Kelly
It looks just rocking.
Andy Fiori
You're a good bald guy, though.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, I got a good bald head.
Andy Fiori
But you got a good shapely head, man. Yeah, mine is bumpy.
Big J Okerson
You're seeing yourself. Yeah, I'm a mental patient with the shave.
Robert Kelly
My mother took full credit for my head because she rolled me every 30 minutes. Yeah, a lot of parents just leave kids in the. The baby's skull is so soft. If they just leave you on one side, you'll get up head. My mom would come in and roll me every.
Big J Okerson
I actually spoke with your mom about this.
Robert Kelly
Wait a minute.
Big J Okerson
Now what now? It wasn't about that. It turns out me and Andy, and this is not an insult to your mother whatsoever. Me and Andy's mothers clearly had very tight pussies. So our heads came out lumpy because they're misshapen because they can only open up so much. Bobby, you just flew out. So your head is in perfect tact shape.
Robert Kelly
One second. Did you say my mom had a wide pussy?
Big J Okerson
I didn't say that. I just said whatever her pussy was, you just flew out of it.
Robert Kelly
Well, maybe I was a small baby.
Big J Okerson
It's very possible you were a small baby coming out of a huge pussy. You're gonna have a perfect head.
Robert Kelly
You just said it. Now. Now you just said it.
Big J Okerson
What?
Robert Kelly
You said she had huge pussy.
Big J Okerson
No, no. I'm saying if a tiny child comes out of a. A huge. You would be perfectly intact.
Robert Kelly
So you're not saying my mother had a huge.
Big J Okerson
No, just huge enough for you to come out unscathed without touching any walls.
Andy Fiori
Semantics.
Robert Kelly
Real quick. Were you really talking to my mother?
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Okay, great.
Big J Okerson
Well, we communicate. I don't know if you know this. You can message through the aura app.
Andy Fiori
Jay calls her every Sunday.
Robert Kelly
On the Aura app.
Big J Okerson
Yeah. On the Aura frame, I just upload pictures to her and I say, but you could just. I could just do it on my phone. I could, like, write a thing and, like, a note and just send it.
Robert Kelly
Can I. Can I do. If I. I would love for you. Really? Because I. She does have the Aura frame for.
Big J Okerson
Me to start messaging your mother.
Robert Kelly
Be hilarious if I gave you her email and just. You would have to just slowly start adding photos to her frame just to see if she even looks at it.
Big J Okerson
She goes, what's that? He goes, I'm told it's Slip knot.
Andy Fiori
What's your name? It's the man Slipknot.
Robert Kelly
Mom. No, no. My mom's first name is Kathy.
Andy Fiori
It's a good mom name.
Robert Kelly
It's not. It's Marie. I never knew that.
Big J Okerson
She's hiding from your father.
Andy Fiori
Yeah. What's the reason?
Big J Okerson
Sleeping with the enemy. That's the reason he's dead.
Robert Kelly
I don't know. They just went by Kathy.
Andy Fiori
I guess my mom didn't have a middle name, which I always thought was weird.
Robert Kelly
My middle. My mom's middle name is Kathleen. Marie Kathleen Dawlin, but she went by Kathleen.
Andy Fiori
People go by their middle name.
Robert Kelly
That was weird. I never knew that.
Big J Okerson
Mom's got the stupidest middle name. Felice Navidot. Yeah, right.
Robert Kelly
She's a fucking Christmas.
Big J Okerson
F, E, L, I, C E. Felice.
Andy Fiori
I wouldn't have thought that at all.
Big J Okerson
That's my. That's my grand. My grandfather always called her. But my mom's Terry with an eye, which lets you know she was gonna a lot. Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Andy Fiori
Mine's Marianne, but she wasn't slutty till she was a Catholic girl.
Big J Okerson
My mom wasn't a. Until she was A, though. You know what I mean?
Robert Kelly
Like, she was a. She was a.
Big J Okerson
But when she unloaded, she unloaded.
Andy Fiori
Yeah, for sure.
Robert Kelly
That door was open and there was a key under the mat.
Big J Okerson
And I do believe it was a.
Christine
Couple cops in her 20s. She's been with the same guy for 30 years.
Robert Kelly
You don't know that. You don't know that.
Big J Okerson
I have no idea what's happened.
Robert Kelly
This little kid was on his tummy watching TV in the other room. He had no idea what was going on.
Big J Okerson
Oh, no. I knew what was going on a lot.
Christine
Oh, my God. Would you listen?
Big J Okerson
What? No, no, no, no, no, no. But there was one time, my mom always said to me, there was one time where I just says, weird. My bedroom was the me, and my brother's bedroom was the end of the hallway, very small apartment was hallway. End of the hallway was my bedroom to the left. At the end of the hallway was my mom's bedroom. Like, profile. And then a hallway and a living room. That's it in the kitchen. And there was a mirror in the middle of the hallway that would bank to the couch where I could see my mom, which was usually my safety net because I was very scared kid. And I would see. I could see in that mirror, like, my mom even, like, her feet or whatever. Just. I'm like, okay, my mom's there. Like, everything's fine. And then one day, light shines in the window, which is a sign that this guy Dave the cop was coming over. And Dave came over, and I just saw.
Andy Fiori
Wait, wait, wait. You're glossing over the signal that Dave is here?
Big J Okerson
Yeah, it comes into play.
Andy Fiori
A light.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, I know, but he would shine his light. Cop light.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, you'd have to shine light.
Andy Fiori
That's so funny.
Robert Kelly
But that was a code of case.
Andy Fiori
Other guy throwing a little pebble against the window.
Big J Okerson
We were top floor of a duplex. It was apartment downstairs, upstairs.
Andy Fiori
Yeah, I guess you don't want to call the landline, wake up the whole.
Big J Okerson
So he would shine the light into the window, and so she would know that was the signal when the door. When the doorbell rings. Well, basically was saying, when the doorbell rings, don't be wigged out. It's me. Because there were no cell phones, like you said.
Andy Fiori
Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Story checks out.
Big J Okerson
It's not a thing. So you.
Robert Kelly
Same thing that cat burglars do.
Big J Okerson
No, they peer in with this flashlight. He shined the cop, like the light. Light.
Robert Kelly
Oh, he's from the car.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Okay.
Big J Okerson
And he would shoot up in the window so it would light it up. And she would know there was gonna be him. But Dave came up.
Robert Kelly
She was about to get it.
Big J Okerson
I was peeking. I was peeking through, you know, I was looking in the thing, but just like normal looking, just to see everyone's there. In fact, I would like. When I was a kid, I would like when a cop would come over and visit, or any friend of hers would come visit. I'd hear them talking then, too, which.
Andy Fiori
Was very like, no monsters can get you.
Big J Okerson
I could fall asleep very comfortably because it was such a small place. I'd hear him talking in the living room. And no monsters could get me.
Robert Kelly
You're talking, you mean. Well, you earned that PBA card, bitch.
Big J Okerson
Dave the cop.
Robert Kelly
Get that. Fuck. You want fucking tickets or not?
Andy Fiori
We're lousy with pba. Cards in this house.
Big J Okerson
My mom did not get any tickets. I will say that.
Robert Kelly
Of course you.
Big J Okerson
She drove. She wasn't a good driver.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
She did not get any tickets. I will say that. I don't recall her ever going to traffic court, but I saw in that mirror that they. It was, I believe her laying on her stomach. And he was. In fairness, I do remember him being fully like cop uniform, shirt on. But he was just, I think the her thing. She'll say massaging. He was massaging her back. Whatever it was, it was definitely getting into it.
Robert Kelly
Hang on, let me get my hand. Let me just fix up.
Big J Okerson
Go for it.
Andy Fiori
I was really hoping it was gonna be naked with the cop belt on.
Big J Okerson
I don't know what was going on below.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, slow it down, slow it down. She was on her stomach then.
Big J Okerson
We think so I think he was straddled over across her butt, right?
Robert Kelly
Yeah, yeah.
Big J Okerson
And massaging her back. She says.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
But I was pretty sure I went to school the next day feeling and definitely telling at least somebod Damn school night. Jesus, Dave.
Robert Kelly
What a hoe.
Andy Fiori
Holy.
Robert Kelly
Who does that on a Tuesday?
Big J Okerson
That's the move you want to my mom. School night's tonight. Oh, I didn't know you do it on weekend when I'm allowed to be up. True, right?
Andy Fiori
True.
Robert Kelly
That's true.
Big J Okerson
Now on the weekends though, Dave is a slippery one. Weekends got shipped off to my mom's house. So actually that's when you could really loud.
Robert Kelly
She detectives on weekends, but that's good precinct. She the guy with a little flip pad and a pencil.
Big J Okerson
But I told that at, you know, at. At risk of telling the story for the 500th time. That light in the window story is always interesting because the night my mom met my stepfather in a nightclub, they went back to my mom's house. I was at my mom's. They were definitely going to have didn't fuck. And Dave the cop, while my step pop to be was up there, shined the light in the window and.
Robert Kelly
And you fucked him.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
You lied on your belly, Dave.
Big J Okerson
Dave, like. But here's the thing. Then the doorbell rang and my mom ignored it because, yeah, I already got somebody here. Dave. But it wasn't Dave. It was a guy she went on another date with once who got hammered. Hammered.
Robert Kelly
That was her nickname showed up. Geez Louise.
Big J Okerson
Louise. You go see Geez Louise. My mom was sweet. Sweet Connie from We're an American Band Sherry Terry. But. So that was my stepfather's up there. Dave the cop goes, but got a Call. So didn't end up ringing the doorbell.
Robert Kelly
And the stepfather going, there's somebody murdering somebody.
Big J Okerson
When my mom didn't answer, he drunkenly put his fucking fist through the glass and like. Yeah. Went upstairs and my step pop patched him up. And they called the cops and they.
Robert Kelly
What a good dad.
Big J Okerson
We're not cops. They called an ambulance to like, come take him to the hospital. But that is the night my mom. My stepfather wrapped up in three guys who were probably fucking her or had already fucked her.
Andy Fiori
Terry.
Big J Okerson
Tara. Tara goes for it.
Robert Kelly
God damn.
Big J Okerson
Say what they say what you will about you bros do. But Terry Rosenberg throws down.
Robert Kelly
Of course she does.
Big J Okerson
Terry. Thank you. My mom. Terry Felice Rosenberg gets down. My mom wasn't like that. My mom was a good lady. No way. My mom was popping. I know, you're right.
Robert Kelly
You don't know what she did to get in the country.
Big J Okerson
No, she's from this country.
Robert Kelly
You know what she did to survive the Holocaust?
Andy Fiori
Don't you dare.
Big J Okerson
Her mother did something to survive the Holocaust.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. She went down on those German probably flocking.
Big J Okerson
And then she made it so my sweet, sweet saint of a ma. Mom could live and be born in this country.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
And meet my wonderful grandfather. And they would give birth to neurotic Jew named Barry. And geez, Uncle Mark, who was a heroin addict from the time he was 15. And my mom, the local cop stole it.
Andy Fiori
The local badge bunny.
Big J Okerson
And my mom, the local cops.
Robert Kelly
What a badge. Bangers.
Andy Fiori
Is that what they're calling something in there?
Big J Okerson
Badge bunny is probably it.
Andy Fiori
Badge bunny, probably.
Robert Kelly
We were talking out front, which is pretty funny about. I was just on vacation and I talked and I bought. I bought my wife. I was gonna buy my wife a necklace, you know.
Andy Fiori
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
And my Max was like, get the mom. Let get it. Let him get it. And she was like, no, he's just buying this necklace so he. So he can buy the Gucci sunglasses he wants.
Andy Fiori
Was that what you're doing?
Robert Kelly
100%. 100% what I was doing. But why'd you even ask? I didn't.
Andy Fiori
Well, I. Jay's gonna come at me with a new look. I didn't know you're. Buddy, those glasses came out of nowhere fast.
Robert Kelly
I feel like we're on a different show. Like we should be talking about Palestine and Gaza.
Andy Fiori
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Gentlemen.
Robert Kelly
Yes. Yes.
Big J Okerson
You were saying?
Robert Kelly

Robert Kelly
Even fancier. And they look fantastic on a butt. Is a different guy. It's not the.
Andy Fiori
It's a different J.
Robert Kelly
It's not little guys.
Big J Okerson
I could still talking.
Robert Kelly
You should use different words though.
Big J Okerson
Penis and vagina.
Robert Kelly
So.
Andy Fiori
So yeah.
Robert Kelly
I said I didn't get. I wanted the sunglasses. 100 I was buying her this so I can. Wow.
Andy Fiori
If we're here at the store.
Robert Kelly
But I didn't. I didn't get the sunglasses to spite her.
Andy Fiori
Good. Good move.
Robert Kelly
Right? 100 and then Jay was telling me.
Andy Fiori
You gotta tell Max to shut it.
Robert Kelly
Well yeah. Look.
Andy Fiori
He got dropping dimes.
Big J Okerson
Max did. That was actually. Max broke bro code. You gotta call it when you call it.
Robert Kelly
What do you mean? Say. Say I know it's his birthday.
Big J Okerson
I know it's his birthday week. But. Yeah. That's breaker bro.
Robert Kelly
No. That's what? Not him. Oh she said it. She said.
Big J Okerson
Oh. He said Max was just like mom get.
Robert Kelly
Because. Yeah. Cuz he. I got him a silver bracelet. He's like mom get. Get the. Get the glass. Get the necklace. Let him buy it for you.
Big J Okerson
She was like family jewelry shopping with the Sopranos.
Robert Kelly
I know. It's nuts.
Big J Okerson
He goes have a nice robe chain with an Italian horn on it.
Robert Kelly
I was. I was doing this to get the Gucci sunglasses that I wanted.
Andy Fiori
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Just so I could get them guilt free. And she was like he's just doing this so he can get his Gucci sunglasses and not feel guilty about it. And I go you know what? I don't want them. I really do want them. But I'm not gonna get them because I want you to be happy. I just want you guys to have stuff. I won't get anything. And I did that to spite her fucking face.
Andy Fiori
I'm with you on that one.
Robert Kelly
Right?
Andy Fiori
Absolutely.
Robert Kelly
And you. And then you wound up telling me preacher. You said.
Big J Okerson
Oh. The level that I'll go to. To spite Christine. Yeah. Because something. If she's. If she's christining for a change. Sometimes you gotta straighten her out by.
Robert Kelly
Is she a verb?
Big J Okerson
Yeah. You make yourself uncomfortable at the sole reason being that it's gonna make them feel guilty. Feel guilty about. And just go to bed with that. I said I've slept. That was example. I used. Me and Christine have been in arguments where I've just gotten into bed in jeans and the clothes I was wearing that day. Because I'm gonna be uncomfortable. And my face will show that all night. And it is gonna bother her in some way.
Robert Kelly
Right.
Christine
I'm like are you wearing your jeans to bed. I did that like one time. I was psychotic.
Big J Okerson
I've done it more than one time.
Robert Kelly
But it's to teach her every time. It's to teach her, make her feel.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, the teacher.
Christine
I always fall asleep right on time.
Andy Fiori
I just have an ex girlfriend who would not let me near her bed if I was wearing my street clothes, quote unquote. Don't sit on the fucking bed.
Robert Kelly
I'd be like, you have street clothes.
Andy Fiori
Like what I wore out today.
Big J Okerson
People are real big believers in that though. People who care about that, care about that a lot. I've heard all kinds of things. Like, can you believe that when people, as soon as they get into a hotel room, put their suitcase up on the bed, I go. It's immediately what I do.
Andy Fiori
It's the first thing I do.
Big J Okerson
And I unzip it and I put the stuff out and then I move the suitcase to the little rack or whatever or somewhere where it's gonna sit. And then I lay right on the bed.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
With my. Wherever my dirty suitcase was.
Andy Fiori
100.
Robert Kelly
Doesn't bother me at all. No, but I do. I think I've done this before. I've. I've slept on the edge of the bed with no blanket, of course, to make her feel.
Big J Okerson
Let her know.
Robert Kelly
Let her know. I look at. We're. I'm. We're here on this little thing because I have a show or it's my, you know, the comics come home. There's one king bed. I've slept on the floor to let her know I'm the guy. This is about me.
Andy Fiori
Floor is wild.
Robert Kelly
But I'm gonna fucking do. So you two can have the fucking bed. I'm gonna get no sleep. And I'll also go do the show and fucking murder in front of 17,000 people. And then you can get the check and you feel that? Yeah, you feel that?
Christine
Did you fall asleep? Really easy to like that.
Robert Kelly
Both of those pieces of shit with all that. And they both lights out, hung the floor. She got a gold necklace and he got a silver chain. I got Lugats. And I'm cuz I can't find those glasses anymore.
Big J Okerson
Now listen.
Andy Fiori
Who is. Sounds like a dude.
Robert Kelly
Lugats.
Big J Okerson
That's new, by the way. You still won.
Robert Kelly
I did?
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Because somewhere in her brain she feels guilty about me not getting the glasses.
Big J Okerson
You've taken. You've taken time off of her life.
Robert Kelly
Here's what I'm gonna do. Tell me if this is a. This is my plan. To lightly pepper in these glasses over the Next month of like. I saw those glasses again. I wish I got them and just put it down.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Lightly, subtly.
Andy Fiori
It's really bright out here.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, right.
Big J Okerson
And then go. Yeah. No, I just. It's not. It's not really the time to spend money on myself.
Andy Fiori
That's frivolous things.
Robert Kelly
That's good. Frivolous is a word.
Big J Okerson
Dude. I have slept poorly. I have not purchased.
Andy Fiori
I know. When he starts a sentence and touches those glasses.
Big J Okerson
I have not. It's very difficult with the head.
Andy Fiori
It's a whole new jet.
Robert Kelly
I don't understand what's happening. That whatever you just did with your glasses.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Andy Fiori
It's more thoughtful. You go when I.

Christine
What's the place? I like Iron Cactus.
Big J Okerson
Iron Cactus.
Christine
So I love this place, Iron Cactus. And I wanted to go there for lunch. He doesn't love it that much, but I love it it. And we usually go once when we're there. So he's like, hey, do you want to go turn cactus? He's like, no, I don't really want to go. I was like, all right. He's like, if you want to Go. He's like, it's really busy on 6th Street. I was like, well, there's no one over there right now. Like, it's kind of dead. And he was like, okay, fine. Let's go to Iron Cactus. And I'm like, okay. And I knew. I was like, this is not your number one choice, but you're gonna go with me because I like it. And we get there, and he just decides he's not gonna order.

Christine
But it was also, like, two blocks from us. Yeah, this is right by the mothership. We're at the Thompson.
Robert Kelly
It's still, though. You're gonna wind up getting stopped a bunch of times. So it's not like you just go from here to there, and you're there. Hey, Jay. Oh, my God. It's like. It's a process.
Andy Fiori
Sounds like a gay boy.
Christine
Fine. We could have argued it more.
Big J Okerson
But then I know she wanted to go, so I said, I'll go.
Christine
He says, I'll go. And then I'm like, well, you're not eating. I was like, fine, pack all this to go. Let's get out of here.
Robert Kelly
You.
Andy Fiori
What kind of cuisine that.
Christine
Mexican. I'm like, I'm not gonna sit here. I was like, I'm not enjoying this. I don't want to hang out with you. I would have rather have just come by myself.
Robert Kelly
Can I see? I worked. I want to say, the smile on Jay's sophisticated glasses face right now, really knowing that your rage is still available.

Christine
He's full.
Andy Fiori
Is he wearing those glasses? Because it makes it a whole lot pettier.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, if you had to push them back.
Andy Fiori
Yeah, you push them up on your nose.
Big J Okerson
Well, Christine, you see, you. Your behavior won't be tolerated.
Christine
Wanting to go to my favorite restaurant in Austin. So sorry.
Big J Okerson
First of all, you are garbage. It's the Iron Cactus.
Christine
They have a soup and salad.
Big J Okerson
Is your favorite restaurant. And by the way, your favorite restaurant. Your favorite restaurant in Austin is a place that. And used for the soup and salad is batshit crazy.
Robert Kelly
You can't say favorite restaurant. Soup and salad.

Facts. Yeah, Panera is one of your favorite places.
Christine
Broccoli cheddar at Panera.
Andy Fiori
You ever have the Brock Shed?
Robert Kelly
Yeah, it's great. But he's not your favorite restaurant in Austin.
Christine
What other restaurant in Austin do I like more than Iron Cast? Oh, you know what? Cisco's is probably my favorite. Cisco's probably my favorite. Yeah, but Iron Cactus is a close second. It's Mexican food in Texas.
Robert Kelly
Christine, you're Christining. Settle down, Christina.
Christine
Well, Jay didn't order.
Big J Okerson
I didn't say we had to leave, buddy.
Robert Kelly
It works.
Christine
No, you're just gonna sit there not eating at the table.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Andy Fiori
And pout.
Big J Okerson
No, no, no.
Andy Fiori
I mean, define pouting, you know, to a J. Pout.
Christine
No, I mean, we could change the word to make it less.
Robert Kelly
Wait, I love this. Another. We had another verb. A J. Pout. What is it?
Big J Okerson
No, it was. Listen, you're on. You're on 6. You're on 6th Street. I sat in the chair.
Robert Kelly
Quit shouting.
Big J Okerson
You.
Robert Kelly
You. Christining.
Big J Okerson
I sat in a chair that can see the 6th street like lunatics walking by.
Andy Fiori
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
And I just sat there talking to Christine half and.
Christine
No, you weren't talking. It was the whole thing. No, I was like, you're not eating. I was like, you're just not gonna order anything.
Andy Fiori
Guess we're getting the soup to go.
Christine
I mean, it was just horrible.
Robert Kelly
Oh, how was the soup when you got it back to the room? It's good. It's fine, but it's not good.
Andy Fiori
Can we bring up the Iron Cactus website, please?
Big J Okerson
The iron.
Robert Kelly
What kind of soup was it?
Big J Okerson
It's attached to the mothership and no one talks about it.
Robert Kelly
Listen.
Christine
Well, that's because they're all into Terry Blacks and they're elks.
Robert Kelly
Next to the. I don't even know there's a restaurant next to the mothership.
Christine
That's where you took the picture of me and my friend Chelsea hugging. It's the best on the street.
Big J Okerson
It's the best soup and salad in town, they say.
Andy Fiori
Yeah, I had a feeling.
Big J Okerson
It's tortilla soup, first of all.
Robert Kelly
There's no best tortilla soup.
Big J Okerson
You've never been There is at the Iron Cactus.
Christine
I love chicken.
Andy Fiori
Locals call it the Cactus.
Big J Okerson
She goes. She goes. Yeah, we can just go to the Iron Cat. Keep in mind now what you're saying. It's the Iron. It's only two blocks away, but I go. Sixth Street's gonna be a ton of people.
Christine
Oh, I'm sorry. A couple bouncers. Told you you were awesome.
Robert Kelly
What's happening? Wow.
Christine
You weren't.
Robert Kelly
Wow.
Andy Fiori
There was nobody bouncer demo.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, dude, you really do have a good bounce. Oh, no.
Christine
People wanted to take pictures with you. There's like, maybe two or three people.
Big J Okerson
I didn't even brush my teeth. I was in sweatpants.
Robert Kelly
What time of day? It was like 12:30 at night or in the afternoon.
Big J Okerson
Afternoon.
Robert Kelly
Oh, afternoon.
Christine
He was supposed to do skanks. I was walking around by myself. I was gonna go eat by myself.
Robert Kelly
Let's see some of this.
Andy Fiori
Is it a chain or just.
Christine
I think it's just this one.
Robert Kelly
Let's see some food.
Christine
Jay doesn't really like Mexican food either.
Robert Kelly
He doesn't like Mexicans.
Big J Okerson
I like Mexicans more. I like Mexican food.
Christine
Yeah, he likes the case.
Andy Fiori
That's wild.
Christine
That he wouldn't touch.
Robert Kelly
Why you didn't. Brisket.
Andy Fiori
Queso dog. I'm with you, Chris. That sold me.
Christine
This place is bomb. Did I not even have groups here?
Big J Okerson
Did I not have. It's not bomb. Have I.
Christine
He doesn't think Cisco's bomb either.
Andy Fiori
That's wild.
Robert Kelly
Jay's. Jay's.
Big J Okerson
Neither is Bobby.
Robert Kelly
What?
Big J Okerson
Cisco's.
Robert Kelly
Cisco's garbage breakfast.
Big J Okerson
Bobby says it's garbage.
Christine
I'll tell you why you started eating your food before the tortillas came.
Robert Kelly
Because it's. Here's the problem with it. There's no level. Styrofoam plate, flat piece of. It's beans, eggs and fucking. And it's all the same level. There's no. There's no peaks and valleys.
Big J Okerson
Fine. I think it's fine.
Robert Kelly
It's fine. It's not great.
Big J Okerson
And I like the tradition. The tradition of. It's fun.
Robert Kelly
The tradition is fine. Going all together is what you go for, but it is not a breakfast. I would ever go. I would never be there and like, hey, I gotta go to Cisco's. I would never go there by myself or take anybody and here's the thing.
Christine
I stayed there for like a week. I ordered it to the hotel.
Robert Kelly
God damn right I fucked up because I didn't do the tortilla. So maybe that's why I up. I was just eating slop out of a plastic bowl.
Christine
Were you not enjoying whatever the butter, biscuits and. No chips and salsa and the queso.
Robert Kelly
Queso was great. I. And I was.
Christine
The biscuits were burnt.
Robert Kelly
Okay. Biscuits sucked. I was the one who ordered. Josh was like, we only need one queso. I was like, get three because you're a Doberman pincher and all be gone. Which was gone. He ate it all.
Big J Okerson
And he didn't eat it all.
Robert Kelly
He ate it all. It's all gone. I didn't know. It's just so.
Big J Okerson
I can't stop myself.
Robert Kelly
We all gotta get the meso de. So whatever the it is. What is it? We all get migas. That's the tradition. We can't break tradition or I'll cry into a bowl. Anyways.
Andy Fiori
Megas, please.
Christine
Can we say that this is my meal right here? The iron salad and the tortilla soup. Perfect lunch.
Big J Okerson
She bragged about spending $21.
Christine
What am I bragging about? No, I also.
Big J Okerson
You said I paid for it. You said I paid for it. And I don't know.
Robert Kelly
You did.
Andy Fiori
You did.
Robert Kelly
You did. I wave you.
Christine
I went and walked to the guy. I said, oh, here, can I give you this? And can I get everything packed to go?
Andy Fiori
Separate checks, please.
Robert Kelly
Now you're still mad about it.
Christine
I've completely forgotten about it until this moment.
Robert Kelly
Can I say if this is the case with this one little instance of her having this inside of her. How many of these does she have loaded up?
Big J Okerson
I don't know, but it's great, isn't it?
Christine
14 years.
Robert Kelly
You better watch it back in these houses.
Christine
She's been shouting around, how good am I at it?
Big J Okerson
How good am I at it?
Robert Kelly
Buddy, it's really good. And I. I agree with you because as soon as Don said he's just doing this so he can get, it was almost like, first of all, go fuck yourself. We're on vacation. I just. I bought you a thousand dollar necklace.
Big J Okerson
I brought you Aruba.
Robert Kelly
I brought you to keep going.
Big J Okerson
That's what I'm saying.
Robert Kelly
I paid for every meal.
Big J Okerson
You figured out what, the restaurants you wanted to go to.
Robert Kelly
Anything she wants. Yeah, everything. Everything's done.
Andy Fiori
Iron, cactus.
Big J Okerson
And then now I'm getting. You're getting the benefit of me feeling guilt for wanting to buy myself something.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
So you're getting something.
Robert Kelly
I got her something. But it was. I was getting her something so that we all. You get this. You get that. I'm gonna get those glasses. But I didn't say that. But she knew it. That evil girl psycho mind of. He's just doing this to get the thing.
Big J Okerson
You don't say. Except. Except you got your treat. Except you got, as Rocky would call it, your prize, right? You got your prize.
Robert Kelly
Would you just say that's not evil.
Christine
So much as it's just knowing who you are.
Andy Fiori
Pretty calculating.
Robert Kelly
It's pretty calculating. And you know, I just bought you. My glasses were $300. The Gucci glasses, sunglasses. Her necklace was a thousand.
Christine
Did you save the style number or anything?
Robert Kelly
You guys got it? Yes, of course I did. I'm fucking getting those glasses. I'm gonna.
Christine
I won't walk over on the nail.
Robert Kelly
I'm gonna get the glass. But no, I'm not.
Andy Fiori
Did it ruin the trip? Was it a good trip?
Robert Kelly
It didn't ruin the trip, but it did hurt. I'll tell you. I'll be honest. Can I be honest?
Andy Fiori
Were you jouting the rest of the trip?
Robert Kelly
No, but I.
Christine
Bobby's more of a Christine Jace, more Dawn.
Robert Kelly
But he really is in the relationship. I'm Christine. And she's. He's definitely Dawn. But no, I'll tell you, it hurt. It really bummed me out because you're like, I'm buying. I want you to have this. I want you. I want to do something. Yeah, here it is.
Andy Fiori
Sincere. Sure.
Robert Kelly
She's going. You're not doing this out of. Yes, of course I'm gonna get the glasses, but I'm doing this because I want you.
Andy Fiori
Sure. I get it.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. And you're getting a way better gift.
Big J Okerson
I just remembered. It's right. There's a spike coming. Christ way soon. I don't remember how I'm gonna lay it out yet. I haven't really discovered what it was. But like, she did a bunch of, like, we were walking around Costco and There's a new PS5. There's a PF PS5 slim. Now.
Robert Kelly
Now that you lost weight and.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, now the PS5 Slim. No, I was like, weigh you for that. Oh, you know, it'd be nice. You know, be nice if I wanted to play on another TV in the house. Get it on the TV in the house. They. And I looked up. Do they link if you have the same account? I think they do.
Andy Fiori
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
They do link. So I was like, oh, it'd be cool to kind of play Upstairs. If I wanted to play instead of just downstairs all the time, that'd be kind of. And I mentioned it a few times at Costco, and Christine was like, I thought the whole thing's just gonna play it downstairs. I thought it was just like a. It was a shooting down of it versus when she's like, I think we need. I think we might need new knives. I always go, and again, this is wrong. Kim Congdon called the Good on Legion skanks new money. I didn't have money until my mid-40s.
Robert Kelly
Right.
Big J Okerson
So. @ all. So it is that where when she goes, we need knives, she gets upset because I come back and I go, for $5,000, it's the knife set of all knife sets. And a guy comes every week to sharpen them for you. Stuff like that. And she's. And she's like, what?
Robert Kelly
What?
Big J Okerson
She's like, we don't cook. And I go, I know, but one day we're gonna. We're gonna cook something. And don't you want to have 12 of the most. Most amazing knives ever? Don't you want to cut through a tuna can and a boot and then a tomato?
Robert Kelly
Dawn has been talking about Cutco knives for five or six years. We've seen them now, now, now, this year at the Sangeneres feast, they had the Cutco guy. She went up. She goes, I don't know. I went up behind her back. I go, give me the set. And I paid for them. I go, they're coming tomorrow.
Big J Okerson
Fuck off, Bobby.
Andy Fiori
Just because you wanted a set of.
Big J Okerson
Forks, we got a cuckoo guy.
Robert Kelly
You have a cuckoo.
Christine
I have a cuckoo guy who's made us beautiful knives. Yeah, he made me have a home.
Robert Kelly
He made me one.
Big J Okerson
It's Justin, right? His name's Justin.
Robert Kelly
He's the best.
Big J Okerson
He comes to Gang Fest every year.
Robert Kelly
Awesome.
Big J Okerson
He's amazing. I went out to him. I go, dude, what's the set like? I want to get the. But I want you to get the commission for. You know what I mean? Like, he's like, buddy, I got you this set. It's every. Listen. Couple grand for sure. Which is ridiculous. Yeah, but. But he was good. But he goes, but I'm also throwing in the blah. And then this. And then this whole package and the grill stuff. And Christine just goes, that's what she says. It's a knife block. It's this big. We'll say, right? Maybe a foot and a half or something to have it all. It's amazing. She goes, well, I don't like it's. Gonna take up too much counter space. The whole kitchen's counter space. We bought the house because of the counter space.
Christine
Stuff on every inch of the counter. So it's cluttered like hoarders.
Robert Kelly
Let me tell you something. First of all, Cutco knives are the best ever.
Big J Okerson
I'll never know, because now this poor guy. This poor guy who put the whole package together for me and said, we're gonna do this. I am. I was so embarrassed that Christine cut me off at the knees on it, that I just didn't even reach out to him, tell him I wasn't doing it. I just moved on in life. And I was like, hey, buddy, I'll be getting to you with my credit card information momentarily. Never talk to him ever again.
Robert Kelly
God.
Andy Fiori
Yeah.
Christine
He wants to get, like.
Big J Okerson
I go, that's the jam right there, buddy.
Christine
Like, we don't.
Andy Fiori
That's not too big.
Big J Okerson
It's.
Christine
It's ridiculous, by the way.
Big J Okerson
I think it's a bigger one.
Christine
I mean, it was bigger.
Big J Okerson
Keep going down. There's more. There we go. Now we're cooking again.
Robert Kelly
I mean, Jay, there's two of you in a house.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, look at that.
Christine
I think it was hosting dinners.
Big J Okerson
Yeah. I think it was that guy.
Christine
We don't even have that. That's double this.
Robert Kelly
Can I say something, though?
Andy Fiori
You know, 34 hunch.
Robert Kelly
Come on. You don't know how many. You're going to start having dinners. You're going to start having more than two people over. You're gonna have 10 people overnight. You could have a big dinner. And if you have all the steak knives for steaks and everybody, It's. It's kind of nice. When dawn wanted. She's like, all we have. We need three knives. I go, we're getting six steak knives because we might have people over. And I want to have the same.
Andy Fiori
Maybe, if you get it.
Big J Okerson
Yes.
Andy Fiori
Start having people. You know, hey, we need a reason to use these.
Christine
We get a reasonable knife block with six knives. We don't spend five grand on knives nobody's gonna use. I mean, Jacob just had. The guy made us this. This beautiful knife that we have.
Andy Fiori
PlayStation and knives. We don't ask for much.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Christine
I'm like, since 2011, I've had video games in my house. It's so nice to have them in the basement and, like, not around me.
Andy Fiori
You know, it's fun. I thought you guys would maybe cool out a little. Moving to a house and having more room, I can't. But it's all created a whole new Set of problems.
Robert Kelly
I can't. I can't.
Big J Okerson
I know you're single, so it didn't just strike you, what Christine said. That was just crazy.
Robert Kelly
I gotta. I gotta. I gotta.
Andy Fiori
It.
Big J Okerson
Yeah. That hurt him.
Andy Fiori
I glossed over.
Big J Okerson
My eyes are tearing.
Robert Kelly
I can't.
Big J Okerson
That was crazy.
Robert Kelly
I can't.
Christine
What she just said Brian and then you.
Big J Okerson
Where's Bobby going? He's taking a lap. He can't believe what Christine just off of podcast.
Christine
Godamn. Xbox on.
Andy Fiori
You got to stop walking away from things.
Robert Kelly
First of all, J Getting mad at.
Christine
Me because I'm in the room and now tanking the game.
Robert Kelly
You smell fantastic.
Andy Fiori
You're tanking for a high draft pick.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, yeah. I'm trying to get a high.
Andy Fiori
Epic.
Robert Kelly
I can't. What the.
Big J Okerson
Wasn't that crazy? Oh, my God.
Andy Fiori
I was talking over.
Big J Okerson
She says. She goes, I had all these years of having video games in the living room. It's nice just to now have them, like, out of my face and downstairs.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Which is while she's. While she's upstairs watching the other giant TV that I bought. Oh, this laundry.
Christine
Watching the Kardashians.
Robert Kelly
He's like a dog in the basement on his dumb video games.
Andy Fiori
Yeah, but you want to be down there. I'd rather be in the basement than.
Big J Okerson
I'm very happy down there.
Andy Fiori
Video games in the basement.
Big J Okerson
Very happy down there.
Christine
Wants another toy because he doesn't really want anything. And so now he wants to spend his money on a second PS5.
Robert Kelly
You're gonna hit her or we're gonna have to do something. I'm gonna have to walk out again.
Big J Okerson
You might have to walk out.
Robert Kelly
And Danny's right. I gotta stop walking off a podcast.
Andy Fiori
You know what I just realized?
Christine
The Nintendo one. You don't use it, Jay.
Andy Fiori
You can whip your glass glasses off, and then you got a whole new set of moves.
Robert Kelly
Now, Andy, real quick, just to let you know, I walked out just so I can walk by that chocolate and get a piece of chocolate. That was most of the drive by chocolate. That's what it was.
Big J Okerson
That was a smart move.
Andy Fiori
He is calculating.
Robert Kelly
God, that was creamy.
Big J Okerson
I talked about maybe. I talked about maybe getting the video games. Having some video games, like, outside. Yes, I know, but it's met with. Well, it's just like that. You don't even know. I don't need the words. It's the face.
Robert Kelly
I'm gonna tell you this.
Big J Okerson
It's the face that starts.
Andy Fiori
And you're like, she had the face. Looked at me and smiled.
Robert Kelly
Let Me say something I missed out on a home in the town we live in that was two and a half acres of land. It had room for a big built in pool. It was way bigger than the house, cheaper than the house that I got right. And I did and I. That face and those things. Why are we here? Why? Here's what I learned being married for 17 years. You make the fucking decision. Just do it. Because they're saying things just to say things.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, I thought it was actually gonna come a little bit later. But the thing is, Christina's taken to the suburbs in this house so much. She really, beyond expectation, has fallen in love with the house, the area, and just being out there in that yard and everything we have. And then in the ultimate long game, I will take that from her in one fell swoop. One day without her know.
Robert Kelly
Can I say, can I get a little glasses push back right in the middle.
Big J Okerson
Now what Christine doesn't understand is.
Robert Kelly
Jay just took his index set of moves.
Andy Fiori
To work with with these glasses.
Big J Okerson
I do now, you guys. What you guys understand about Christine is she's. She's what people call an idiot. And she will live in this ignorant bliss. Let him do it.
Christine
Look at it.
Robert Kelly
Okay, Christine, wait a second. I said it's rude.
Christine
That's why guys texting online are like, you, you better.
Robert Kelly
I'm going say this.
Andy Fiori
I won't text you that anymore.
Robert Kelly
And I will back off of that too if that's bothering you.
Big J Okerson
It's okay. It's okay.
Robert Kelly
I. I think that was rude. But in right next to rude was hilarious.
Christine
I know.
Robert Kelly
Do you understand?
Christine
That's the problem?
Robert Kelly
So I. I have to respect the new classy J. When he says things. It has a little more I don't know meaning.
Andy Fiori
Also I think anything entertainment should be set up by the man. That's just men should be in charge of entertainment.
Robert Kelly
Strong choice.
Andy Fiori
So then you can have backsplashes and all that.
Robert Kelly
Jacob. Like, yeah, but what is it? Can I ask you a question?
Big J Okerson
Seriously, we don't need it.
Robert Kelly
Why? If he says, as Jay who works and you know how hard he works, he goes, I was thinking of getting a PSP, which is 500 bucks. It's fucking.
Andy Fiori
Not even the thinny. I bet it's not even.
Robert Kelly
Okay, so you get. I'm just gonna get.
Big J Okerson
Who cares?
Robert Kelly
It's not like he's like, hey, I'm gonna go buy a fifty thousand dollar chain to wear that, you know, whatever he. I was gonna get a thing for downstairs so I can play down here. Or up there, or if I'm whatever. So just say, okay, do whatever you want. Why are you gonna add the little.
Christine
Say do whatever you want all the time? Because you. I'm.
Robert Kelly
I mean, he's not. He's not other people.
Christine
Yes, he is. That's crazy. Are you kidding?
Robert Kelly
I take it back.
Big J Okerson
I was.
Christine
That was.
Big J Okerson
That was, was. That was no advice.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, I apologize if we confer. I'm talking about my relationship.
Big J Okerson
If we, if we confer. If we conferred before this, about this topic, I would have said, don't use.
Robert Kelly
She said, yes, he is.
Christine
He was sending them some pretty upsetting messages.
Andy Fiori
Oh, boy.
Christine
Okay, well, listen, so PS5 in the living room, space wise, the knives, all that. But I do try because Jay doesn't. Doesn't want a lot. I try to be supportive of things that he wants to buy. And when he was upset about his jeans, he's like, I didn't know these jeans were 200. I was like, you've never been able to shop at the mall before. Like, treat yourself. Like, get the nice jeans.
Robert Kelly
That's kind of hurtful.
Big J Okerson
That plays out for her.
Robert Kelly
You've never been a shop at regular people's stores.
Andy Fiori
You've never been able to buy off the rack before. Treat yourself.
Robert Kelly
You gotta. You gotta shop in that octagon shaped store on a route next to the mall.
Andy Fiori
The story doesn't start with a description of your weight or height.
Big J Okerson
No, you don't understand what's happening. You understand what's happening.
Robert Kelly
Been a 36, Christine.
Big J Okerson
Christine is a shopaholic. So in the regards of that, like, if I go to a mall and leave with hundreds of dollars of jeans, that makes her. That opens the door. That's the thing. That's what dawn was calling out. That's what she's doing. But here's the thing. I don't mind. I'll play the game, I'll dance the dance. That's part of the dance, is you.
Robert Kelly
Go, you gotta dance the dance, but you don't go, you fucking piece of shit.
Big J Okerson
You don't go. I'm doing it because I want you to buy this. Because I want to get something for myself. You dance the dance, you go. I'm saying, you deserve this. You should have this. And then when you go, what do you think of these sunglasses? You're expecting to go? It's like, what are you talking about? We're on vacation. You live once. Yes, fucking go get it.
Robert Kelly
Get it.
Big J Okerson
Don't even think twice about it. Get it. They look great on you.
Robert Kelly
Do it, buddy. Do you know how good they looked?
Big J Okerson
And for that reason, Christine will be homeless at some point. But not yet. Just when she feels her safest.
Robert Kelly
Look at these. How good do those look? Look.
Andy Fiori
Damn, they do look good.
Robert Kelly
They look.
Andy Fiori
That's the style.
Robert Kelly
Look at those.
Big J Okerson
She said they're a little big.
Robert Kelly
Those are not a little big.
Andy Fiori
She's fighting for her life.
Robert Kelly
Yeah. Look at those. Those are not a little baby nuts.
Andy Fiori
No, there's a cool. Look at those.
Robert Kelly
Those.
Andy Fiori
Look.
Robert Kelly
I put those on. I put those on. And I went, I gotta send him.
Big J Okerson
A picture to play.
Andy Fiori
You send me the link. I don't have anybody who could hold me back from buying these.
Robert Kelly
Oh, please don't buy them. That'd be hilarious.
Andy Fiori
Here's the thing.
Big J Okerson
Oh, isn't it great when an unattached guy just gets the thing you want?
Andy Fiori
How about this, Bobby? Here's what we're gonna do. You got Father's Day coming up. Maybe you go, hey, dawn, you know, back in the room, I really love these kind of glasses. And I wanted to buy you guys some nice things. But, you know, Father's Day's around the corner.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, I agree. But here's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna do what we do do, because I'm gonna not get them, and I'm gonna sprinkle. I'm gonna. On Father's Day, I'm gonna be like. I thought they might have been the glasses. It's just a card. It's just a card. And you made a meatloaf that I do love. I do love me meatloaf.
Andy Fiori
Well, there's no reason you shouldn't be able to have both.
Robert Kelly
I'm. I'm gonna. I'm gonna bring. If she doesn't get me these. And I told her, I said to.
Andy Fiori
Some, maybe that's what she's doing.
Robert Kelly
I said this. I go, hey, they're in Aruba. I said, hey. I go, this Father's Day, I don't want any of this fucking nothing bullshit. I want something tangible. I want gifts.
Big J Okerson
No, Bobby, here's the ultimate thing. Don't overplay that. Just let them know. It's like, what you should not do is say you want gifts. You just go. It's like, no, I buy the gifts. I'm the guy, you're the kid and the mom and my wife. You don't have to worry about gifts. But you gotta be willing to. Even if it's a gift you really like, you don't oversell appreciation on a gift. From a chick, because they're only able to do this for you because of the money that you're making. So you have to be willing to look at a nice present and almost say with your eyes, I sort of paid for this, but I do. This is nice. Thank you.
Andy Fiori
The gesture.
Big J Okerson
Thank you. But like, this is. At the end of the day, if you ever hit a wall because of this crazy purchase, I'm gonna have to bail you out of that.
Robert Kelly
Now, I do have a. I had a backup plan because Anthony Aiden, my glasses guy, he did come in with a new pair of glasses that are coming.
Big J Okerson
I know that name.
Robert Kelly
Anthony Aiden.
Andy Fiori
Well.
Big J Okerson
Oh, Chris DiStefano's glasses guy. I'm sorry. Go ahead.
Robert Kelly
I'm sorry, is there. Oh, I can use this piece of. It's my glasses.
Big J Okerson
That's not what I heard on Joe Rogan.
Robert Kelly
Oh, my glasses guy. And.
Big J Okerson
Well, on Joe Rogan, I heard him say that it was his guy. So I listen, listen. I'm in the Rogan sphere.
Robert Kelly
And he stole.
Andy Fiori
You got a knife guy? He's got a glass glasses guy.
Robert Kelly
I got the glasses guy. Andy is my guy.
Andy Fiori
Everybody calm down.
Big J Okerson
I think you're allowed to use them, too.
Robert Kelly
I.
Big J Okerson
Off.
Robert Kelly
I. He's. He's got a pair of Jacques Marie's. He called me. It was. Okay, these came in. You want. So I'm going down to get those. So on the side, I'm gonna go just get these. I'm getting them. And I'm not gonna tell her. I'm just buying them.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, but that's. That's an internal win. That doesn't really. It doesn't hit with the thunder you're looking for in these situations, you know, sophisticated J. I would say, you know what. What you do is you buy those and then you really rub it in with a thing of like. You know what? I'm actually glad I didn't get the Gucci's because these were, like, way more expensive, and I would have felt bad getting both of them. So.
Andy Fiori
Yeah, it's not bad.
Big J Okerson
These cost a lot more.
Robert Kelly
That's. That's a good one. Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
Or how about this cutting? I get both.
Big J Okerson
I like that.
Robert Kelly
And I said, go yourself.
Big J Okerson
Yeah, and you go. It's like, you know what? Because I was gonna buy just the one pair, and then I thought to myself, you're not my mother. And then take. Get. Go to the bank and get one of those wads of ten grand with the. With the sticker around it, you know, the wrap and slap it in her face. And she won't mouth off again.
Robert Kelly
I bet I get. I get a two of those wads and go, here, go get tits.
Big J Okerson
Christine just told me she's. She's done with me. I liked it. Christine just told me that she doesn't want me to play video games in my own living room.
Robert Kelly
Buddy. That's crazy. And you should have one outside. You should have one upstairs and downstairs. The. How successful you are right now. Jay. You should be. You should have your. Your thing is gaming and documentaries and YouTube and stuff like that. Watching stuff. Tummy time and video games. That's what you'd like to do. TV and that. You should have a Sony or whatever you want. Maybe both gaming systems on every TV in the house. Inside and out.
Christine
Wire management is going to be.
Big J Okerson
That's crazy. That's a lot. That's overkill. That's even. That's overreaching. Yeah. I wouldn't beat all those.
Christine
Jay's big on wire management.
Big J Okerson
I am big on wire management.
Robert Kelly
She's using that against you.
Andy Fiori
Felt like grasping at straws.
Robert Kelly
She's using your wire management against you.
Big J Okerson
No. I'm.
Andy Fiori
I have terrible wire management management. So I don't.
Big J Okerson
We've. We've acknowledged it before when we were on the show. I am big on wire management. But the situations I'm talking about are not that. It was just. Why do we need video games in the living room?
Andy Fiori
I thought you meant you're not in.
Big J Okerson
There all the time. No. No.
Andy Fiori
How far is the living room from the basement?
Big J Okerson
One floor.
Andy Fiori
Now I'm starting to lean the other way.
Robert Kelly
Can I say something though? It's the function of the house. It's. It's far away. Like. Okay, that's over here. This goes down here. And then way over there. You're. You. You.
Big J Okerson
It's absolutely overkill if it makes sense.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
But I might want to just lay on the.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Couch upstairs is a different kind of couch. There's got different thing. And I might want to. I mean.
Andy Fiori
What do you work for?
Big J Okerson
Hey.
Robert Kelly
You're not buying cocaine and hookers and, well, fancy cars.
Big J Okerson
Not in this town. I'll tell you this. Christine said the words right there. Just get it. Just get it. I won't.
Robert Kelly
No, I won't.
Big J Okerson
I will never own a second Sony PlayStation. When this. When this one goes. When this one more mine breaks. I'll have an inconvenient day because I'm gonna have to wait till the next day. Probably time wise to get myself another PS5 and then figure out how to get everything loaded onto it and all that shit that I don't understand. So that'll be the day. And then I'll go, man, at least if I had the one upstairs, I could have just went to that. But Father's Day.
Robert Kelly
Let me ask you a question.
Christine
I know now I have to get it and hook it up and be like, surprise.
Big J Okerson
I'll take a baseball bat to it.
Christine
I know what I'm doing. I'm going to have Isabella give it to you. That way you can't destroy it.
Big J Okerson
I know. It won't be from her.
Robert Kelly
It's not from her. If Don gets me these glasses, I'll take them.
Big J Okerson
Will you? Yeah, I would take them too. And then break them in front of her face. Yeah. And be like. Like, I don't wear fakes. When she goes, they're not fake. And you go, then you should have shut your mouth in Aruba.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, it's true. Un.
Big J Okerson
Dude, is this how fun it is doing Dante's show? Just like Dante stupid. Yeah, because they dumb. And her brain ain't developed. She doesn't understand why video games can be in two rooms.
Robert Kelly
Was it hoes up down. What's do you call slap a bit?
Andy Fiori
You all get caveman bone earrings.
Big J Okerson
Dude, we all need. I want to earn like a goddamn door knocker. I want a like him, like Dante.
Robert Kelly
Yeah.
Big J Okerson
Do you know he's.
Robert Kelly
He's got a big one.
Andy Fiori
It seems impossible that he doesn't.
Big J Okerson
What exactly I'm asking currently his body shape would tell me that maybe it doesn't like dangle off the. But I'm not saying there's not a lot of.
Andy Fiori
There's a lot of meat.
Big J Okerson
There's a lot. A lot of cup. But I don't know what his body type. Dante is very like round.
Robert Kelly
Dante's got a piece.
Big J Okerson
I mean he male script, so I'm sure he's got a hog on him. But yeah, sometimes you lose, sometimes you don't. Ron Jeremy, fat as he got, always kept about a good showing. 10 inches at his worst.
Andy Fiori
Did you guys know Ron Jeremy was in Ghostbusters?
Big J Okerson
What, the original?
Andy Fiori
He's in. Yeah, the original.
Robert Kelly
What?
Andy Fiori
I saw it on Instagram yesterday. He's like. He's an extra.
Robert Kelly
Is he?
Andy Fiori
Yeah, there's like one clip where they're in New York City and it's just Ron Jeremy, like they're all looking up really. On the top of the one building. That's a fun fact lately. Young Ron Jeremy.
Big J Okerson
That's great. He goes, I guess gozer's up there now.
Robert Kelly
You remember Teen Wolf? The guy in the bleachers at the end? Did he really take. Is that real or is that real?
Andy Fiori
An urban legend.
Big J Okerson
I don't know. When I see it, when I see the thing they show, I'm always like, what's. I think it's just blurry. I think it's just blurry.
Andy Fiori
What a great soundtrack.
Robert Kelly
I thought he took his. It looks like he took his dick out.
Big J Okerson
The F word was in Teen War Wolf. And Bobby's not allowed to say it. Ain't that crazy.
Andy Fiori
There's another one.
Big J Okerson
We don't even play by Teen Wolf rules here.
Andy Fiori
What about Teen Wolf 2?
Big J Okerson
Teen Wolf.
Andy Fiori
T O O. Yeah, yeah.
Big J Okerson
Jason Bateman.
Andy Fiori
Jason Bateman.
Big J Okerson
And also I just watched him the other day.
Robert Kelly
Wow.
Big J Okerson
There is montage. A montage. Send Me an Angel by real life.
Andy Fiori
Yeah, dude.
Big J Okerson
Send Me In Two is wild.
Andy Fiori
There was a bunch of good ones like that. Like Three Men and a Baby. There was the ghost in the background.
Robert Kelly
What?
Andy Fiori
Yeah. You never heard that one?
Robert Kelly
No. What is that one?
Big J Okerson
There's like a.
Andy Fiori
There was a ghost of a dead kid in the background of Three Men and a little. Three Men and a Baby. But then it was like. It turned out it was a cardboard cut out of Ted Dance.
Robert Kelly
What about the person who hung themselves?
Andy Fiori
Yeah.
Robert Kelly
In the wizard of Oz.
Andy Fiori
Yep.
Big J Okerson
A midget.
Robert Kelly
You see that?
Big J Okerson
You said person.
Robert Kelly
I forgot. Little.
Big J Okerson
Yeah.
Andy Fiori
Please be accurate.
Big J Okerson
Yeah. Oh, that's a mythical creature. They don't die.
Andy Fiori
You can see something. I've watched that a bunch of times. You see something climb up and then.
Robert Kelly
It swings back and forth right there in the background.
Andy Fiori
Watch. You'll see it.
Big J Okerson
No, it's there.
Robert Kelly
That's right there. It's right there. It's in the back swinging. It's right in the middle. Right? Yeah, there it is right there. Can you not play? That's not it Freaking me out. That's this. That's the thing in the background.
Andy Fiori
You'll see something. This is less.
Big J Okerson
This is even less classy than when Logan Paul found a person hanging in the Suicide Forest. At least he wasn't singing and dancing with lion.
Robert Kelly
Is it that is it.
Big J Okerson
That's it for sure.
Robert Kelly
That's 100 it. Because you see it swinging. That's supposed to be.
Andy Fiori
I remember seeing something.
Big J Okerson
His name was Squeaks Mitchell.
Robert Kelly
Yeah, it actually Squeaks. It looks like a regular.
Big J Okerson
Parents named him Squeaks. They knew he was going to be a midget.
Robert Kelly
You ever stay in that hotel in Culver City where all the Midgets stayed. No, the Culver Hotel. The Culver City Hotel. In Culver City where MGM now. Sony. Yeah, there's a hotel over there that you can see. It's a boutique hotel now. But that's where all the midgets stayed.
Big J Okerson
