4. Alcohol and Drug Stories

• Drinking in Canada:

5. How Upbringing Shapes Anxiety (and Paranoia on Weed)

• Sydney says he doesn’t get paranoid from weed because he was raised “with no shame or accountability”—classic single mom survival.

---

7. Privilege, Airport Etiquette, and “Chick Stuff” Among Gay Men

• Che vents about gay men “taking chick privilege” (i.e., behaving rudely to other men as only women or drag queens might safely do)—incident at CLEAR airport line.
  • "A man doesn't talk to another man like that because then there's physical violence that happens. Only chicks get to talk like that." – Che [23:51]
• Zac’s “buddy road trip” rule: real men don’t need a bite of your bacon, egg, and cheese.

---

8. Fighting: Rules, Cultures, and Viral Clips

• Why Fighting Matters:
  • Che advocates for the social/emotional benefits of occasionally being punched in the face—mutual combat laws, lessons in humility, real-world consequences.
    "We need to reintroduce [street fighting] to society." – Che [33:32]
• Street Fighting Norms by Demographic:
  • Racial/cultural differences in “the rules” of fighting; “no ground game” preferred in the hood, “first clean punch” ends the fight, no jumping in, no stomping.
    "Black guys fight in packs ... but when the race is the same ... first clean punch wins." – Sydney [37:18]
• Viral Fight Video Play-by-Play:
  • They break to watch and react to viral street fights, including a three-on-one MMA-trained woman versus “jumpers” and a “falcon punch” overhand from a viral “fat girl” fight.

• Fight Tactics:
  • Zac: "Black hood guys hate body slams ... they go, 'no slams, man.'"
  • Che: "You don't see body shots, leg kicks in chick fights. That's a thing only dudes think about." [29:04]

9. Internet Facts and Food Network Controversy

• Zac admits to erroneously claiming TV chefs use “sous chefs” to recreate their dishes for camera, which triggered a massive backlash from real chefs—including scathing Instagram replies from Andrew Zimmern, Rocco DiSpirito, and Chef Antonia.
  • "I said on an episode kind of recently that on cooking competitions, they have sous chefs that recreate the food ... The Food Network stars came out of the woodwork to call your boy an idiot." – Zac [53:00-53:53]
  • Shannon reveals the hate, "Every day I get notifications of another chef being pissed off and commenting on it." [56:13]

This is a makeup episode because it was too cold to leave the goddamn house on Monday or so. Luckily, Shannon and Jorge are troopers, so they came in on a Friday so that we could do another episode.

[Sydney Gantt]

What's going on? Happy to be here. We did almost have an incident. I thought Che just reached over to hold my hand when you changed that volume.

[Che Durena]

Oh, yeah. When I was like, yeah, I thought.

[Sydney Gantt]

You reached over to hold my hand. I was like, I don't know how I'm gonna react to this.

[Che Durena]

That would be great even for. I'd be like, I don't even know what am I gonna play that?

[Zach Amico]

So great to have you guys. Thing number one, I just did Toronto for the first time. And Trey, you're a Canadian boy.

[Che Durena]

Yes. Yeah. I love Toronto.

[Zach Amico]

I gotta tell you, Toronto, way more Asians than I thought.

[Che Durena]

Oh, really? Yeah. A lot of Asians across Canada. All everywhere. A lot of Asians.

[Zach Amico]

An exceptional man. No complaint.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Just didn't expect it.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, they're going to get a lot of Asians, large Jamaicans specifically. I think Toronto's like, you're going to get Filipinos. I know. Vancouver's a lot of Filipino people.

[Zach Amico]

I feel like there was almost like a Koreatown or like, where is a Korea town?

[Che Durena]

Yeah, there is.

[Zach Amico]

That was near where we were. I was just very surprised.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

But I will say excellent city. Enjoyed it very much. And shout out to smokes Poutinery.

[Che Durena]

Oh, you ate a lot of smokes.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, buddy. Indian butter chicken.

[Che Durena]

Dude, you're on poutine. Must be going crazy, Dog Baba.

[Zach Amico]

I can't. I had one pulled pork, one and one Indian butter chicken. And I was switching, dude. And we drove. So the next day, 10 hour drive back.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yo, the interior of that car was melted.

[Che Durena]

Must have been dog.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, talk about needing to get your car detailed.

[Zach Amico]

Poor Alex Tomaselli just making the drive.

[Che Durena]

Oh, and it's cold out. You can't even open the window or anything. It's like either freeze to death or breathe your fucking ass.

[Sydney Gantt]

Two things I've been really thinking that cars need lately. Yeah. One, a horn to beat towards the back.

[Che Durena]

Okay. Back horn.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, you gotta beat people in the back sometimes.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And you need something like a button you can press that's similar to the defrost that just vents out farts.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

We all need that. Just.

[Che Durena]

Yes.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

It just sucks everything.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. 15 seconds.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

It'll make you feel like you're in a spaceship and you're like getting sucked into the vents.

[Che Durena]

I like that. Dude, I think you got to stay buckled in.

[Sydney Gantt]

You got to stay. Yeah, Stay buckled.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, I don't mind it, you know. So I've traveled with enough wrestlers in sprinter vans.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh.

[Che Durena]

To know that.

[Zach Amico]

To know that, you know. Well, the way when I travel with the wrestlers, they basically have two vans and they don't tell us which one we're in. But one smells like protein farts and one smells like weed. And I just go in the weed one.

[Che Durena]

Yes. That makes the most sense. Yeah, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Follow your nose.

[Che Durena]

I can imagine because you got the protein. They're all unlike protein powder and stuff. But also the steroids. Steroids fuck your body up like crazy in terms of like the farts and shit.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like, dude, just the sweat out of your body when you're on steroids.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's disgusting.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Anytime I roll with somebody that's on steroids, I know it for a fact.

[Che Durena]

I had a porn star tell me that. She, like, back in like the 2000s, a lot of steroid dudes and she said their cum would come out clumpy and it would also, like burn your face.

[Sydney Gantt]

They needed to put it in a shaker.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, you need that little metal thing in there.

[Che Durena]

Put it in the dick hole.

[Sydney Gantt]

I needed to say this because it's gonna be in my brain the whole entire time. Follow your nose to get into the weed van. Token, same. I just needed to say that.

[Zach Amico]

That's fine. I love it.

[Sydney Gantt]

We can move on now.

[Che Durena]

Wait, we say that again.

[Zach Amico]

Token Sam.

[Sydney Gantt]

Token Sam.

[Che Durena]

What's Token Sam?

[Zach Amico]

He said a Toucan Sam.

[Che Durena]

Oh, Tokyo.

[Zach Amico]

The Fruit Loops.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Is this a Canadian thing?

[Che Durena]

No, no, we have Fruit Loops. No, we got it.

[Sydney Gantt]

We Got it like, like rings or some shit.

[Che Durena]

We definitely have a lot of off brand bullshit. But we did have two cans. Okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

He made it.

[Che Durena]

He made it.

[Zach Amico]

You know, it just made it to America. All dressed chips.

[Che Durena]

All dressed chips are the fucking.

[Sydney Gantt]

What is this?

[Zach Amico]

Bring it up, Shannon.

[Sydney Gantt]

What is this?

[Zach Amico]

Just got them delivered yesterday from Gopuff, dude.

[Che Durena]

So this is something everyone would talk about. Can. Oh, Canada. You have ketchup chips. Ketchup chips. Ketchup chips are whatever. All dress chips. They're fine.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, all dress chips go hard. Excellent.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

The unreal chip before, Before I see these, before I even look at these. Which chips am I going to replace with these?

[Zach Amico]

Barbecue.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay. So what am I pairing these with?

[Che Durena]

Oh, a dip for sure.

[Zach Amico]

If you get.

[Che Durena]

You can get a good. They're a good dip chip. Cuz you're going to get the ruffles all dressed. So it's like that thick, like ribbed. This guy.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, I don't want to look at. You know what I need? I have a couple more questions before I look at this.

[Che Durena]

Okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So when you. When he said all dress trip chips.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

What was the first food you thought of to have them with?

[Che Durena]

First food. I mean, I don't really match chips with a lot of stuff. I'm more of just like eating chips as a snack.

[Sydney Gantt]

You've never been overweight?

[Che Durena]

No. No. A little bit. Not crazy.

[Sydney Gantt]

No, you have not. He's still an overweight valor.

[Zach Amico]

I would say go great with a like cold cut sandwich or a burger.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah, it's definitely turkey or ham.

[Zach Amico]

Turkey.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay, now I want to see these chips.

[Zach Amico]

Now bring up all dress chips.

[Che Durena]

It's definitely a summer chip. Yeah, I would say. Yeah, but.

[Zach Amico]

And what would, what would you call the flavor profile?

[Che Durena]

It's like barbecue salt and vinegar and then maybe there's some sour cream and onion in there too. But the sour cream and onion would say is like the faintest of them all.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay.

[Che Durena]

But you're getting that sort of like soury sweetness, barbecuey all in one chip. I can't believe you guys didn't have these.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, man.

[Zach Amico]

Tangy, savory and sweet notes, frequently described as a mixture of barbecue salt, vinegar, sour cream and onion and ketchup.

[Che Durena]

Dude. There we go. Wow. Bang.

[Zach Amico]

The only thing I would say, kind of sort of the only chips I would say are above them are what's the horseradish ones they have at Wawa?

[Che Durena]

I don't even know these.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, goodness gracious. If you wouldn't have asked me that, I would have been able to tell you a second ago.

[Zach Amico]

It's like horseradish and cheddar.

[Che Durena]

I've even heard of this chip.

[Zach Amico]

Shannon, could you look up horseradish chips? They're really.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Way better than you think.

[Zach Amico]

They're like.

[Sydney Gantt]

They're like cheap wasabi.

[Zach Amico]

Okay.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah. Okay. I like this.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, they clear you out a little. They're nice, right? Yeah, it's a nice.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Especially if you have sinus issues.

[Che Durena]

Diuretic. Oh, you mean the nut. Okay.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, yeah, that's.

[Sydney Gantt]

I mean, they open up your nose. They make you blacker.

[Che Durena]

Okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

The nostril flare.

[Shannon]

I keep just getting cheddar and horseradish.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, that's it.

[Shannon]

Okay.

[Che Durena]

Cheddar and horseradish. That's fire, dude. Okay. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Because that's one of my Wawa state. If I'm. If I'm going wild. Yep. Those.

[Che Durena]

Oh, okay.

[Zach Amico]

If I'm going Wawa, the things I definitely want hot pretzel if I'm going sweet. Snickerdoodle cookie or a peanut butter. What's it called? The chocolate things. It's like a snack cake.

[Sydney Gantt]

Candy.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. Tasty cake. Taste the peanut butter.

[Sydney Gantt]

Tasty cake or candy cakes.

[Zach Amico]

And then ice tea. Wawa iced tea. Unbeatable.

[Sydney Gantt]

So just a little. You cannot have those horseradish chips with, like, the meatball sub or anything that has the red sauce on it. Why do that? The combination of those two flavors, they're just bad. It tastes like medicine.

[Zach Amico]

It's like toothpaste and orange juice. Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yes.

[Che Durena]

Okay. Okay. Yeah. See, this is something that Canada is really lacking on. You guys have, like, this hardcore passion for gas stations.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

Like, you, like, you have wawa. You got BUC EE's, you got fucking. I don't know. There's other ones, too. But you guys, like, you fudge with them and they're all. But you fuck with them for a good reason. They're sick. You guys stalk them like crazy. We don't do that in Canada, which is wild because our shit's far away and we do road trips all the time. And so we need this kind of, like, standout gas station sort of.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, we. We don't even. We don't even, like, fuel up with gas. We fuel up with pre diabetes. That's how we get from place to place.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Diabetes our way.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

From one place to the other.

[Zach Amico]

One thing I was furious at in Toronto, and this is the first time I'll make a political statement on the show. These tariffs Are out of control. I couldn't get goddamn Jack Daniels.

[Che Durena]

Oh, yeah, no, yeah. They're fucking like. There's a whole bunch of shit it'll say. Like, it'll have like a maple le on it. If it's like a Canadian product and it hasn't been hit by a tariff, they'll have like a tea on it and is going through the roof over there. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's crazy.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, because I sent the. I was at. I shouted him out last week. Catacombs Cabaret. Rob Mayo's new room.

[Che Durena]

Okay, sick.

[Zach Amico]

And I sent one of the guys that works there out and he's like, what do you need? I was like, I'll just do a bottle Jack. And he's like, oh, no, we can't do that. I drink like crown or something.

[Che Durena]

Crown's good though.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. It's not what I wanted there.

[Che Durena]

Fair, fair.

[Zach Amico]

I wanted, I wanted. I'm. I'm a cheap. I'm a Jim Beam guy. Yeah, yeah, Fair, fair and at home. An Evan Williams guy.

[Che Durena]

Yep, yep.

[Zach Amico]

I'm a low, low brow gentleman.

[Che Durena]

You have what you like. You have what you like. That's totally fair. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Lately though, has come back into my vernacular. Bacardi Limone?

[Sydney Gantt]

Uh oh.

[Che Durena]

Oh, no thanks.

[Zach Amico]

Uh, oh, not bad.

[Sydney Gantt]

I remember I. I don't even drink much, but I remember them very specifically from my college days that we would all get these little bottles of the Bacardi's and show up at parties and. And when they needed to make a mixed drink, suddenly you were just like opening up. What do you. What do you want? Yeah, I'm the guy. I'm the bar over here.

[Zach Amico]

When we were young, it was Bacardi 151. Which, man, looking back on it, bad decisions.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, dude, My buddy spilled some of that on a leather couch and like.

[Zach Amico]

Burned the fucking leather Everclear when we were kids.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

God damn, you could fuel a SUV.

[Zach Amico]

With that Everclear and orange juice like animals.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, that's fucked.

[Sydney Gantt]

I never, I've never had Everclear. Don't. Yeah, it's not.

[Zach Amico]

It's like 90 alcohol. It's ridiculous.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's like moonshine, basically.

[Zach Amico]

It's retarded. There's no reason for it.

[Che Durena]

The big one that launched when I was in high school was the. Was the Jaeger bomb. That changed the game for us. The Jaeger bomb. I was probably like grade 10 or 11. And then we were like, oh, this good. This is unreal.

[Sydney Gantt]

I'm sorry, I'm. I'm really not a big Drinker.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Which one is the Jaeger bomb?

[Che Durena]

So you take a shot of Jaeger and you, like, put the. The shot. I mean, if you want to do it real fancy.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

You put the shot upside down in the glass so it's, like, sealed. And then you pour Red Bull over top of it. And then. So when you pull that, you pull the shot out and it, like, unleashes, and then you chug it down.

[Sydney Gantt]

You get to use physics before.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah. Or you put the shot in right side up, and then pour it slowly so the Jaeger doesn't leave the shot glass. And then you drink them both and they both.

[Sydney Gantt]

Does it do something cool when it mixes that way?

[Che Durena]

Not really. It's more just drunk. Yeah, it's more just the novelty. And then you weren't really supposed to mix energy drinks and. And booze. 1. We never got that. I wish I got. When it was like. When it was real, was the 4lo. The real 4loco.

[Zach Amico]

I was in college when that came out. Oh, boy.

[Che Durena]

People went insane on it. Like, it would drive you mad.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Because you were alert.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

You were. You. You didn't get sleepy.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

You were just drunk and it was like being. It was. It was preparing you for a life of booze and coke.

[Che Durena]

Booze and coke.

[Sydney Gantt]

But the thing is, it's White Claw. It's like a.

[Zach Amico]

Well, it had caffeine in it.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay, gotcha.

[Zach Amico]

So the original recipe had a shitload of caffeine, and it was 12% alcohol.

[Sydney Gantt]

Which I also don't fuck with. Caffeine destroys me.

[Che Durena]

No, you don't do caffeine. What does it do to you?

[Sydney Gantt]

I spike intensely.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And then crash immediately.

[Che Durena]

Oh, no.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. I cannot fuck with you.

[Che Durena]

What drugs do you like? Like, of anything. Nicotine guy, Anything.

[Sydney Gantt]

Only marijuana.

[Che Durena]

Okay. All right.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And then even then, I have to, like, cycle myself between indicants and t. But pretty regular.

[Che Durena]

Okay. Yeah. See, I can't touch weed. Weed. I get massively paranoid immediately. But caffeine, stimulants, or coke, I don't do anymore. MDMA is the greatest thing on the face of the earth, but I haven't touched it in so long.

[Zach Amico]

It's such a bad next day. Yeah, yeah.

[Che Durena]

It is a bad.

[Zach Amico]

It's really hard to justify. Like, once you're a person with shit to do.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

You gotta set. Unless you're setting aside another day.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Because you're just. Fuck. Your serotonin is zapped.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, it fucks your serotonin, but nicotine, I didn't get into until like three years ago. It was in the pouch and I could, like, kind of dose it. Never smoked a cigarette? No. Well, I did smoke cigarettes in Japan, but that was on a trip and that was the only time I ever smoked cigarettes. But now that's in my mix.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

So I am in the hack in my brain.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And I heard that nicotine is a little bit of a nootropic. So I am thinking about getting the.

[Che Durena]

Pouch is the best way to do it.

[Zach Amico]

I agree.

[Che Durena]

Because you can kind of put it in and out. It's gross, it's sloppy. But now the zins, you want to get the one that has like the. It has like a container on top. Let me fucking give you one of these, dude. We won't. We don't have to say who it is because you don't need a sponsor. So this isn't a zen, but it has that alpha GCP in it.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay.

[Che Durena]

But these. Dude.

[Sydney Gantt]

And this has no cat. No, no.

[Che Durena]

No caffeine. So it's Alpha gcp. L Theanine. There's no caffeine, no nicotine. Do you want one as well?

[Zach Amico]

I got two in right now.

[Che Durena]

Okay. So. Oh, you know what these are?

[Sydney Gantt]

I don't even know.

[Zach Amico]

I just got two.

[Sydney Gantt]

I don't even know how to open.

[Che Durena]

Oh, so, yeah, you just like, fucking bong.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay.

[Che Durena]

And so then you just put that in your lip. It's. No, I'll read the shit. I don't want to say that I.

[Zach Amico]

Put it in the top lip.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay.

[Zach Amico]

Imagine a Hitler must wear a Hitler mustache.

[Che Durena]

It's vitamin B6, vitamin B12. Alpha GCP is the thing that apparently makes you focus more. Ginseng root extract with helps blood flow and then L Theanine. But I. So I saw the ad for these and their ad said if Zinn and Adderall had a baby.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh.

[Che Durena]

And so then I started fucking around with these. One thing I find is if you do too many, I think you almost get overloaded and they make you dumber. So you like.

[Sydney Gantt]

I.

[Che Durena]

Makes my head cloudier. But if I stick to like two a day, three a day, take a couple days off, then I'm good. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay.

[Che Durena]

But I did definitely feel like a focus from it.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

I don't mind the dumber.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay. I like to get dumb every now and again.

[Che Durena]

Every now and again? Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

I have three kids. I need to be dumb every now and again. I just need. I need a break. Also with weed. I don't get paranoid with weed. Because I was raised with no shame or accountability.

[Che Durena]

Oh.

[Sydney Gantt]

So I don't really. I don't think about anything. There's like, nothing can make me.

[Che Durena]

What do you mean by race was no shame or accountability?

[Sydney Gantt]

I was raised by a single hood mom that loved to fight and get fired from jobs. Yeah.

[Che Durena]

And she was like, that's how you got to be.

[Sydney Gantt]

Well, she's just like. She worked in nursing all the time.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

So she's been mortified.

[Che Durena]

He's been.

[Zach Amico]

He's broken his meter on being mortified.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. It just does. I don't even. I think my mom, like, broke it on my way out of the womb. So she would get fired from jobs and get hired back. Not. Not at the same job, but at another job.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Another job. And go back to the first job because they need nurses so bad.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

I've never seen consequences for her actions.

[Che Durena]

Okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

Do you know what I'm saying?

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

So I grew up saying, like, oh, you can just do whatever the you want. And they have to take. And they need people. The world needs people.

[Che Durena]

The world needs people, dude. Okay.

[Zach Amico]

I am on the other end of that, where I am terrified of upsetting people.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, me too.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. I can't be late to anything. I feel like I am letting everyone down, and everyone's mad at me all the time.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Me, I've worked on it. I've worked on to let that go. Some meditation, a little ayahuasca. That helps, like, fucking let the shit go. And then you can start being a little bit more of a piece of shit in a good way.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, dude, my wife's family is late for everything. I like to be late. Oh, man. It drives me fucking. Dude, we were late. We were a half an hour away from somewhere. We had a reservation for in 10 minutes.

[Che Durena]

Oh, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And her fucking brother was, like, just dragging ass, like, picking his shirt for the day.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And I'm like, are you guys not flipping out right now?

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And her mom's like, oh, you know, he's always been kind of pokey, pokey, dude.

[Che Durena]

You hear an expression you've never heard before? You're like, that's not a thing.

[Zach Amico]

I hate it.

[Sydney Gantt]

No, that's an old school. That's an old school slow poke.

[Che Durena]

Oh, no. Oh, oh, okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's an old one.

[Zach Amico]

And it just dropped, like. And then my wife will tell me, like, yeah. She's like, oh, I was late to school all the time. I was like, if I was late to school, the nightmare of screaming that I Would have went through.

[Che Durena]

Oh, every time.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, my Lord. We were early to. Ever if we went to my grandma's house for something.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

We had to get there an hour and a half early so my mom could set the table.

[Che Durena]

Oh, wow. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like that.

[Zach Amico]

Kind of early.

[Sydney Gantt]

One of my daughters, one of my twins is so traumatized about lateness that now our family is on time for stuff.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Because if we get there late, her attitude about being late ruins the whole thing. Whatever the experience is. Yeah. You know, so rather than have that be the case because, like, she's. She's 10 years old now, but I feel like women learn really early on. If you're upset, make sure everybody else is as upset as you are, and that's that.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. And just spread it.

[Sydney Gantt]

Just spread it.

[Zach Amico]

I mean, as.

[Sydney Gantt]

Spread it and forget it. Do I.

[Zach Amico]

So my wife, by the way, not good advice to give a daughter.

[Sydney Gantt]

Especially as a father.

[Zach Amico]

Especially. She hates being late.

[Sydney Gantt]

My wife got so mad at me the other day because I was talking to my daughters and my son, and my son told one of my daughters to just let whatever roll off her back. And I was like, finn, you can't say that to women. Because women, their problems are now on their backs. Their problems are inside of them.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

So they have to secrete them out of them somehow. My wife was listening. Like, what the f. Oh, yeah, yeah. But. Fudge you.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. But it's true.

[Sydney Gantt]

But it's the truest.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like. And by the way, that. Thank you. Marijuana. Yeah.

[Che Durena]

No, you have to. The thing with a chick is you have to let her freak out in the. In the thing where you go, you should calm down. Where you don't say you should calm down, but you know that she should calm down. And you let her do it. And then when she comes back from it, she goes, sorry, I freaked out. I should have calmed down. You go, oh, I'm glad you got there on your own. I would have told you in the moment, but that would have made it worse.

[Zach Amico]

Nothing.

[Sydney Gantt]

Are you in a relationship now?

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

How long you guys been together?

[Che Durena]

Like a year and a bit like a year and a half.

[Sydney Gantt]

Che, I'm gonna give you a little advice here. If you really wanna make it work, don't let her freak out. Make her freak out.

[Che Durena]

Okay.

[Zach Amico]

You're pushing.

[Sydney Gantt]

Get involved, get involved, get involved. Women love a man that takes charge.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Y.

[Sydney Gantt]

And then if you get. If you get involved, it proves what she's saying, that the whole world is against her.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And then you just help her build back up.

[Che Durena]

Okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, nothing will make a girl go worse than if you say you're being irrational.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

If you want to see irrational, then go. You're being irrational. Right. Just. This is the way I put it. Women are allowed to be in a bad mood over things that you can't control.

[Che Durena]

Yes. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And my example of that is no man has ever been hangry.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Yeah. You just. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like, I.

[Zach Amico]

The amount of times I've had a woman in my life be a complete monster.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And then eat something and then be like, sorry, I was hangry.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

No dude could ever. If I was a dick to you or if any. Any dude was a dick to his friend.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And then a few hours like, sorry, dude, I was just really hungry. Yeah, dude, no guy could do that ever. Women treat life like a fudgeing Snickers commercial.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

No dude could be like, I. Sorry. I was being. I was.

[Che Durena]

I was.

[Zach Amico]

I was in a bad mood because I was hungry.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, that's because men are driven by hunger to do something about it.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Women are like, like, driven to, like, shrink and just do. I feel like most damsels in distress are just hungry bitches that are too weak to leave.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. They're like, I just. Please help me out. I can't do anything. That's.

[Zach Amico]

Shannon, how do you feel about all this?

[Shannon]

I think you're freaking crazy. I have seen men be hangry a billion times and just be like, shannon, you're being irrational.

[Sydney Gantt]

Shannon, calm down. Calm down.

[Shannon]

We're having a. I need a snack. No need to scream, abs.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

What kind of men already? Already volatile men. Like, I. Have you ever seen me, like, for.

[Zach Amico]

Instance, somebody that used to host the show?

[Sydney Gantt]

I think that's what we're all going with.

[Zach Amico]

That's what we're all going with.

[Shannon]

Sydney and Shay. I mean, both of you. But Sydney, from what I know of you, all the things that you say seem insane to me because you're such a sweet, mild mannered, polite human being that I. I can't imagine being a.

[Zach Amico]

Problem black and mild game.

[Shannon]

But men. Men get hangry. This is insane. I'm so sad we're not streaming live so I could see what the chat is saying right now. Because you're making me feel insane. You're gaslighting me now.

[Zach Amico]

Of course you make it about you.

[Sydney Gantt]

I know.

[Zach Amico]

Fucking broad.

[Sydney Gantt]

It wasn't even about you, Shannon. How did this even occur, by the way?

[Zach Amico]

Shannon, I don't mean this in a mean way. I almost. And you're very.

[Che Durena]

As long as you want.

[Zach Amico]

There's not like a. Yeah, Shannon, you're very beautiful and you're very feminine, but I almost don't count you as a girl because you make such good decisions.

[Shannon]

Oh, that's very nice.

[Zach Amico]

And you're, like, super rational. Like, I've never seen you flip out over things people should flip out about. So I almost don't include Shannon in when I talk bad about women.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's because Shaman is also uber charming. Right? And when women are really charming, it's because they know when uber charming is.

[Zach Amico]

A really smooth Indian guy.

[Che Durena]

Well, she also. She navigates one of the most hostile, toxic, like, erats.

[Sydney Gantt]

Still talking about Louis.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Yeah. Well, this just the whole gas digital marketing.

[Zach Amico]

Shannon's like the.

[Sydney Gantt]

The Gaslight digital.

[Zach Amico]

Shannon's like the Secret Service guy that holds the briefcase with the red phone.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

What is it? The. The nuclear football?

[Che Durena]

Yeah. And he's just. She's just like, well, it's fine.

[Zach Amico]

That's. Hey, we're gonna get through this today, okay?

[Che Durena]

One of all the things we're talking about, one, the archetype that pisses me off the most is gay dudes who think that they get chick privilege. Oh, dude, the dude. It happened to me at the airport. I lost it. So I was in line for clear, and there was two lines.

[Sydney Gantt]

One.

[Che Durena]

One was clear, one was TSA PreCheck. And some people were confused and they went in the clear line when they're supposed to pre check. So there's like one person in front of me who's like, oh, is this pre check? And the guy's like, no, you gotta go this way. He's directing her, this gay dude. Also, this is. I'm flying outta lax. So adds to the story, he cuts to the front line and he goes, if you're. If you don't have clear, get the fuck behind me. And I just fucking, like, exploded. I was like, I have clear, motherfucker. You're behind me.

[Sydney Gantt]

I was like.

[Che Durena]

I was like, who do you. Where do you think you are in the world? Like, no, that's only. Like, you're a man.

[Sydney Gantt]

You.

[Che Durena]

A man doesn't talk to another man like that because then there's physical violence that happens. Only chicks get to talk like that.

[Zach Amico]

Because you can't hit them chicks or drag queens.

[Che Durena]

Oh, but then that's like, they. You. You're. You're taking that lady privilege when you're in the drag queen thing because you. You get. You might get to get away with. It's a hate crime. You might be able to spin the hate crime thing.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

But you don't get to just fucking do chick stuff as a dude. No, that's not. I don't care if you get fucked in your ass or you suck dick. You're still a man and you have to live, man. Shit.

[Zach Amico]

My friend Stewart is extremely gay. I talk about him a lot.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And we were on a road trip coming back from a movie and I went into a gas. He wanted coffee and he was doing something. So me and the. Another kid that was driving us went to a gas station. We got him a coffee. And while I was in there, they had. It was like 9 o' clock at night. They had the. The breakfast sandwiches still in.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And they were old.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

I was starving.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

So I get a bacon. The guy literally goes, oh, no, my friend, that has been there for 12 hours. I wouldn't. I was like, oh, dude, I'm just so hungry.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

He's like, you know what you take for free? You take for free. That's how bad it was.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

So now Stuart gets in the car, drive. And I take out my sandwich. And he goes, what's that? I was like, an ancient bacon, egg and cheese that tastes like shit. And he goes, did you get me one? And I was like, no.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

You're my fucking girlfriend.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And he goes, oh. I was like, do you want half? And he goes, no, you could offer me a bite. It made me so mad.

[Che Durena]

Dude, stop doing chick stuff.

[Zach Amico]

You know what a bacon, egg and cheese taste like?

[Che Durena]

Yes.

[Zach Amico]

It's either you're hungry and you want one. Nobody needs a bite of a bacon, egg and cheese.

[Sydney Gantt]

No.

[Che Durena]

As a fucking. You're a buddy on a road trip, like, what the fuck, dude?

[Zach Amico]

Oh, it made me so. It made me irrationally mad.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

It made me so furious it stuck with me the whole rest of the trip.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Well, I think I. I think it is rational mad because I. I mean, I don't know what it's like to be gay, but it's you. You're still. You've still navigated a lot of your life as a man. Like, as a man. And you're. And may, like, I don't know what it's like being in those circles, but.

[Zach Amico]

You'Re not afraid of getting raped on the street.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. And you still understand that there's like, when dudes act a certain way to dudes that it leads to violence.

[Sydney Gantt]

You're still in the hierarchy.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like just because you're gay doesn't take you out of the male.

[Zach Amico]

You still, you still live with the repercussions of being male.

[Che Durena]

Yes. And that's my theory of why gay dudes have the least amount of domestic violence is because it's a real fight.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

It's a real. Two chicks fighting. Yeah. Lesbians have high domestic violence. Have you watched women's ufc? There's not a lot of knockouts. It's not, there's. They're not hitting with enough force to knock out. And that's pro fighters.

[Sydney Gantt]

They fight too long.

[Che Durena]

They fight too.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's domestic violence.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

And they're slapping, they're scratching. It's whatever. It's low damage to dudes. If you're in a gay relationship and you square up, you're like, one of us is going to get knocked out or a broken orbital or something. You're like, this is a real fight. Yeah. You don't want to get in a real fight.

[Sydney Gantt]

Do lesbian fights have to last forever? Like, cuz then they come back, like. And another thing.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And they just constantly keep coming back.

[Che Durena]

100 and they don't know how to fight as well. It's. It's a whole other thing.

[Zach Amico]

But I will say excellent fighters. Hood gay guys.

[Che Durena]

Hood gay guys. Oh, I love seeing a hood gay guy.

[Zach Amico]

They're not, in my experience, the ones I've met that grew up and like, have been gay their whole life.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

They've scrapped.

[Sydney Gantt]

Willing fighters.

[Che Durena]

Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

Very willing fighters. Not necessarily the best are still punching.

[Che Durena]

With their wrist, but they're ready to fight.

[Sydney Gantt]

But they're ready to hit. They're ready to wrist you up.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

You don't want to go let a guy, let a gay guy wrist you.

[Zach Amico]

The person that I'm thinking of, I watched poll maybe the best. It was a what I can only call a gay straight combo.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

It was a giant black lesbian versus a tiny Dominican gay guy.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Fair fight.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. Completely above board in my head. Tail of the tape is fine on me. It was almost like Street Fighter.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, dude.

[Zach Amico]

Like, oh, let's see what these. It's like when UFC first started and it was just to see what different styles did against each other.

[Che Durena]

The Vegas odds are dead even on this one. Right.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's the coin flip. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And she swung at him and he dodged it.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Grabbed her by the hair.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Yanked her backwards and then body shot.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, yo, gotta use your mobility.

[Zach Amico]

It was devastating, dude. It was like, you know the videos of like the old time fat guys getting hit With a cannonball.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, bro.

[Zach Amico]

It was. He yanked her so she literally exposed the belly and just had it. It was one motion. It was this.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And he hit and it went. It was like slow motion. And he dropped her with a body shot.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And I was so impressed.

[Che Durena]

That's something I think, like dudes have. We think about fighting a lot. It's just like, it's one thing, it's cool to be good at fighting. You might get in a fight, your chance of physical violence is higher. That's the thing you never see in chick fights. Body shots, leg kicks. Like we're thinking about that. Lots of chicks have never been hit in the stomach or like your average dude has probably been punched in the stomach or kicked in the stomach or something.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, there was just. I wish I had sent it to Shannon. There was a video on reels the other day and it was three girls trying to jump a chick that did mma.

[Che Durena]

Oh, no.

[Zach Amico]

And she just. It was like a movie fight where they all went in one at a time and just got laid out and.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like by ip, man.

[Zach Amico]

And literally like two full hands of hair. Two full hands of hair.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Spinning her around into almost what was Xbox finisher. The. The. Yeah, the. I would have the X factor. Dude, it was so great. Shannon, can you just YouTube gay fights? I wonder if there's gotta be.

[Sydney Gantt]

We'll be here all day. I need to make a call home to my family. Be stuck in New York for a while.

[Che Durena]

Did you see that chick fight from like three weeks ago, maybe a month ago? It was like this fat Mexican chick and this big, fat black chick. And she. The black chick, like, punched her. Like, literally when she punched her, she goes up on one leg and is like. Like, it's almost like a cartoonish Popeye style, like, overhand right and punches this girl once and lays this fat mechanism.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, she put it to the moon.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah, dude. She, like, literally, like, it's on. Like, you don't see people punch like that ever.

[Zach Amico]

Like a Superman punch, but a Superman.

[Che Durena]

Punch, you, like, leap. She, like, is. Is so much force into this overhand punch that she has to go, like over the top, like, anime style. Like, there's fire coming out of the fist. Boom.

[Sydney Gantt]

Her ancestors were, like, yaddled into the punch.

[Che Durena]

It's a crazy punch. Just one big shot falcon punch.

[Zach Amico]

Yes. Yeah.

[Shannon]

Real quick. I think I might have the. The three girls jumping the other girl. I mean, can you tell just by me?

[Zach Amico]

I can't tell, but go ahead. Oh, this is it.

[Sydney Gantt]

Damn, Shannon, you're on top of that.

[Zach Amico]

Shannon, you are so good at your job.

[Shannon]

You guys are so nice to me today.

[Zach Amico]

This is exactly what I watch.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, I just saw this.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, that was a bad idea.

[Che Durena]

Oh, she's like, split up and she's like.

[Zach Amico]

I think she said square up.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Can we watch that twist?

[Sydney Gantt]

The fight goes to the ground like, oh, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Black people hate slams.

[Che Durena]

Okay.

[Zach Amico]

Black hood guys hate body slams.

[Che Durena]

That's good, that's good.

[Zach Amico]

They hate. They always go, no, no, no. How many times I've watched, like, an MMA guy fight a hood guy.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And they go, no, no slams, man. No slams.

[Che Durena]

I think that's.

[Sydney Gantt]

Let me up, let me up.

[Che Durena]

I think we need fighting in culture. I think fighting is good. I think so many of these, like, talking head people who have a lot of opinions, it's like you need to get punched once or twice. You need some sort of consequence for your actions. That isn't like. I think if you get punched a few times, you get in a fight, you lose a fight. It's like, it's more emotional and social damage. You're embarrassed, which you should feel. You're a little afraid. You should feel that the physical damage isn't that high.

[Sydney Gantt]

Mutual combat.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. And we need, like, rules, clear rules on what is like a legal street fight. And we need to reintroduce it to society.

[Sydney Gantt]

Do you know that we actually do have that in a lot of states.

[Che Durena]

Oh, really?

[Sydney Gantt]

Pennsylvania is a mutual combat state. So if you and another dude are getting in an argument and a cop shows up yeah, you can be like, officer, we would like to fight right here.

[Che Durena]

And they, and they have to.

[Sydney Gantt]

Well, they don't have to, but they can choose to let you guys fight. And as soon as somebody hits the ground.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

They break it up.

[Che Durena]

Oh, so it's like hockey style. Yeah, that's, that's, that's amazing. I think that's good because people need to know, especially in the culture we live in now. You're talking shit on the Internet. You're. Everyone's in the comments. They're, they're, they're being pieces of shit. People need to know that you can get.

[Zach Amico]

Shannon just owned your ass.

[Che Durena]

Mutual combat, where two people will willingly.

[Zach Amico]

Agree sometimes lawful non criminal action only in Washington and Texas.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, there used to be Oregon. Yeah, it used to be in Oregon. And Pennsylvania. I know Pennsylvania was a mutual combat state for at least some time.

[Che Durena]

Okay, we need to spread this. We need to spread this. Yeah, it's good. It's good to know that you can get punched.

[Zach Amico]

Maybe downgraded to a lower level misdemeanor.

[Sydney Gantt]

Shannon, I swear to God, you correct me one more time.

[Shannon]

I really thought it was going to come up. What you were saying, that was my.

[Sydney Gantt]

Major contribution to this episode.

[Che Durena]

And you.

[Shannon]

This will prevent you from going to jail.

[Che Durena]

Maybe, dude.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay, you're right. That's a very fair point. Go ahead.

[Che Durena]

I was just gonna say can you find the. Oh, the crazy overhand from the two fat chicks fighting?

[Sydney Gantt]

So while she's looking for that. So when you said falcon punch, it made me think of. You know that there's this Sudanese dance that's going viral called the ragaba. Right. The whole point of it is they're mimicking a falcon in flight. So they're moving their shoulders like the wings and keeping their head still. Yeah, dude, it is. You'll become addicted to this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Shannon, if you get a chance, please. Sudanese raghaba.

[Shannon]

Okay, let's do the last one. So, Che, can you tell really quickly if this is what you're talking about?

[Che Durena]

Let me see. I don't. Right off the bat. No, this isn't it.

[Zach Amico]

No, but I want to watch it. Yeah, yeah.

[Che Durena]

It's a fight. We'll take it.

[Sydney Gantt]

This is the hood fight because, like, she ready, but big chick is like, nope. Wait, wait, wait, wait. She just woke up asleep in Giant.

[Zach Amico]

No, she didn't. Hey, you know what? At least she was humble about it.

[Sydney Gantt]

Now she knows exactly the society you're asking.

[Che Durena]

Exactly. You get hit and you go, oh.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, Shannon, shooting these ragaba yes, please. Well, I was trying to. I'm trying to remember exactly what I, I wanted to say. The, the what is it with the no ground stuff?

[Che Durena]

So I think the no ground. The reason why it's a good thing to have is there's just so much higher level of, of damage that can happen. Also, you know when the fight's over, like if a guy falls and then you stop, that's what you're like. We know we stop here. If I can hit a guy on the ground, when do I stop hitting him? And also it's like, can I kick him in the head on the ground? Can I?

[Zach Amico]

So here's my. If we had a hat. And I guess this is a racial roundtable. Technically. This is a roundtable.

[Che Durena]

Yes.

[Zach Amico]

And we are on either side of it. Not by design. But as a member of the white.

[Sydney Gantt]

Delegation, technically at the back of the.

[Zach Amico]

Table, as a member of the white delegation, I get two votes because of my size.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay, fair enough.

[Zach Amico]

Not because I'm white. I ate my way into my votes.

[Che Durena]

As a member of the whites and the facts.

[Zach Amico]

As the representative of the whites and the fats. I believe I would agree to that. If the black delegation would agree to. No more stomping out.

[Che Durena]

Yes.

[Zach Amico]

And no jumping in.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, I think that's great.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's great. But fight.

[Zach Amico]

Black guys fight in packs.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. But interracially. Yes. But like when the race is the same, when it's a homogeneous racial fight in the hood, typically. And the reason why they don't go to the ground is because first clean punch wins the fight.

[Che Durena]

Okay. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

So you're not gonna have like a knockdown, drag out fight between two dudes in the hood.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

First clean punch, and then both of them are. Now we're gonna be the bigger man.

[Che Durena]

Walk away from this. Okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

And if it goes to the ground, first clean punch isn't ending it.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

You know?

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

It gets a little wild down on it.

[Che Durena]

It gets a little wild and then there's. There's too many variables. Getting slammed. You can't have slams. Cause you're fighting on concrete. You're fighting on things that aren't slammed.

[Sydney Gantt]

Broken glass.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

[Sydney Gantt]

Drug needles.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. So that's that. I agree with those. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

No curbs.

[Che Durena]

Curbs. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Curbs are rough.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yes.

[Zach Amico]

Curbs will get you.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah.

[Che Durena]

You can't stomp. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

I think it's like unwatched babies. Get these unchaperoned babies off of our fight, please.

[Zach Amico]

Shannon, what do you got for us?

[Shannon]

Baby, the Sudanese thing. I'm not sure if there was a particular one that you wanted any one of them.

[Sydney Gantt]

So this is. That's the takeoff. Now. He's a falcon. Keep him. He's a falcon on the ground, and at some point, he's going to take off and start flying. Boom. All right, he's in flight now. Oh, we're seeing it from the front, Right? And almost every video you're gonna find of it is from the front. But, like, I went crazy the other day trying to find a video of this from the back because I think that it's gonna give you a better visual. And I did find it, and it looks insane. Their head is not moving.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And, like, so you see how they're looking left and right?

[Che Durena]

The neck almost like extends.

[Sydney Gantt]

So ragaba apparently means neck. So it's a neck. It is a neck dance.

[Che Durena]

Okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

But see the way their shoulders are moving?

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like, they'll look left and right every now and again.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

It looks like a falcon, like, hunting as he's flying.

[Che Durena]

Okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

It is the craziest thing.

[Zach Amico]

How many years do you have to spend with all those rings on your neck to get that kind of control?

[Sydney Gantt]

It's like Dragon Ball Z training for the Ragaba days.

[Zach Amico]

And next they're gonna do the lower lip dance.

[Sydney Gantt]

I mean, that's the only dance I know.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, dude, that was fucking Shannon. Can you just YouTube gay guys fighting?

[Che Durena]

Yes.

[Shannon]

I feel like I have a couple of them.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, baby. This is so much better than doing stories.

[Che Durena]

I think I've seen this one. This is a classic.

[Sydney Gantt]

Look at that stance. That's crazy. He's crossed. Their feet are crossed.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, no. He's clapping the syllables.

[Sydney Gantt]

Look at that. Lunge forward with the nose over the toes.

[Shannon]

I need a better one.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

Oh, crazy move.

[Zach Amico]

Oh.

[Shannon]

So short.

[Che Durena]

There's a.

[Zach Amico]

Any of these turn into fights? Are gay guys not allowed to fight?

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, Shannon, apparently you did not have gay fights lined up.

[Shannon]

I had two beginnings of them. You did.

[Sydney Gantt]

You had.

[Che Durena]

Okay, there's a really good one.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, you had a gay preambles lined up.

[Che Durena]

Love lesbians.

[Zach Amico]

And I've seen this guy on Grindr.

[Sydney Gantt]

This is very fruity of you.

[Zach Amico]

I don't know if that's an insult or a praise coming from homosexuals.

[Sydney Gantt]

You know what a gay fight is?

[Zach Amico]

This is a man.

[Shannon]

All right, that's key.

[Zach Amico]

And peel.

[Che Durena]

Shannon, look up.

[Zach Amico]

They're not gay. They just do improv.

[Che Durena]

Look up. Gay domestic security camera. There's one specific one that I. That we'll see if we can find. That's like a really good. Just do get Shannon.

[Sydney Gantt]

You and I are in mutual combat right now. By the way.

[Shannon]

Just so you know, it's not legal here.

[Che Durena]

No, I don't see it.

[Zach Amico]

No, that's all right.

[Shannon]

Gay domestic.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, try it. No, this is gonna be lame. All right, don't worry about it.

[Sydney Gantt]

Gay guy fist fight.

[Zach Amico]

You stop a fist.

[Shannon]

Yeah, it's bringing up all the same ones from before.

[Che Durena]

Let's see. Let's see this.

[Sydney Gantt]

Are these gay men? No, that's a boxer.

[Che Durena]

What's this guy's name? He's Aaron the plumber. Yeah. Oh, he's a boxer.

[Sydney Gantt]

I think so. All right.

[Zach Amico]

Don't worry about. Apparently this is if anyone has a video they want to send in of gay guys fighting.

[Che Durena]

Love it.

[Zach Amico]

We could do it on one of.

[Che Durena]

The future new genre gay fights.

[Zach Amico]

Gay fights. I would love that. That's why I. I thought. I think when there's, like, all the debate about should trans people compete in what? You know, what gender should they give?

[Che Durena]

Yeah, I think we should just have trans. Yeah, the trans fights. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Who wouldn't want to see that?

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

So Ryan and I came up with a hack the other day for trans in sports.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

So all sports, all female sports should be dudes dressed up as Madea versus dudes dressed up like Mrs. Doubtfire.

[Zach Amico]

Well, we know who's gonna win those.

[Sydney Gantt]

I mean, the Doylestown Doubtfires are better than you think.

[Zach Amico]

I don't know. The Doubtfire. That sounds like a real Washington general situation.

[Sydney Gantt]

I mean, but look, it could be a hockey. It could be hockey.

[Zach Amico]

Okay.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

I got my money on the Doubtfires.

[Che Durena]

Hockey. Bobsled. Yeah, bobs.

[Sydney Gantt]

Skiing. Skiing.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Okay.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Where are we? Which Olympics are we at? Summer. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Pickle ball.

[Che Durena]

Pickleball. Is that in the Olympics now?

[Sydney Gantt]

I don't know. But skateboarding, the Doubt Fires are going to.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, no. The blacks are getting Skate. The black. They're getting good.

[Che Durena]

Dude.

[Zach Amico]

They figured it out.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

They figured out. They figured it out.

[Sydney Gantt]

They. They.

[Zach Amico]

That that was one of our last bad.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude. I'm just, like, envisioning a black guy standing over a skateboard. Like, I understand it now.

[Che Durena]

They figured it out.

[Zach Amico]

It's crazy.

[Che Durena]

You said that like. Like, it's the CIA. Like Jason Bourne. Like.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, they've gone online.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

It's like with the fucking Twin Towers thing with George Bush when he whispers to him.

[Zach Amico]

They figured out skateboarding, George Bush is.

[Sydney Gantt]

Just like, Ruthie's creating.

[Che Durena]

The blacks have figured out Skateboarding?

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Like, gone are the days where if you take your skateboard to a black neighborhood, it's going to end up on cinder blocks with all the wheels going. It's not like that anymore. It's different now.

[Zach Amico]

I saw a me that made me laugh so hard the other day. It was the George Bush getting told the second tower has been hit.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

But it was a guy with down syndrome. And the guy whispered, they've grilled the second cheese and made me laugh. Holy shit.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's crazy, dude.

[Che Durena]

That's how good that Shane joke is.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. Is that. Is grilled cheese are synonymous because of how funny the.

[Sydney Gantt]

He's making them in Vegas before he got big, when he was still in Philly. When he first did that joke one time, do I say, I swear to God, and you can ask him. I was like, dawg, you're gonna become one of the most important comedians on the planet. Like that is going to happen.

[Che Durena]

That's so funny that that joke was like, what did it for you?

[Sydney Gantt]

I laugh about that joke. Like, I mean, not as much as I used to, but, like, anytime I saw cheese or bread, it just made me happy, dude.

[Zach Amico]

My dad said to me once, he's making them at night.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Oh, no way.

[Zach Amico]

I dropped it on me. He's like, you seen that?

[Che Durena]

Yeah. I was like, have I seen that?

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, dude. There's like. There's. There's like. He. He didn't do the collection of jokes that he was originally doing with that and to. If he would have. I mean, I know he's already big.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

But dog. His original collection of jokes with that bit.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Groundbreaking, groundbreaking, groundbreaking. The funniest shit. And so the. His sister on heroin. Did you ever do that on any first one? So that was.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, that was about Sleep like a Dracula.

[Sydney Gantt]

And then he had like a callback to what the. The baseball joke about the blacks coming. It was some of the most brilliant shit. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

To this. That is so, you know, special. Really? I've watched three times in the last two weeks. H. Foley's half an hour is so fucking fun.

[Che Durena]

Where is it? I didn't even know.

[Zach Amico]

YouTube. It's really good.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's cool.

[Che Durena]

All right.

[Zach Amico]

I gotta really. I really liked it. All right, let's do a story or two. This is very much my interest, so I apologize. Arrest made in fraud investigation surrounding Raleigh County's Whitaker family. Are you familiar with the Whitakers? Not yet. Oh, the Whitakers. Now this. I will. This is the most white people shit possible. The Whitakers are America's most inbred family.

[Che Durena]

Oh, okay. I know who you're talking about. Yes.

[Zach Amico]

They basically make animal noises. Like, they don't talk. They're rough.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah.

[Che Durena]

Yo.

[Zach Amico]

Kratom.com Home of the $60 kilo. All right, let's get back into the program. Yeah, I guess somebody was bilking them for money. Shannon.

[Shannon]

Okay, this is them that most of them. So this one particular guy pulled away. This one particular guy was going and filming them and then putting up on his YouTube to send money that he was going to send it to the family and then wasn't actually sending it to the family. I looked up his YouTube page. I found a. He doesn't have a lot of stuff, so I guess he pulled some of it down, but not all of it. But I can show you a couple of.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, please.

[Shannon]

So here's one. This is with Timmy, who he doesn't bark, but he doesn't say actual words.

[Che Durena]

Timmy, what are you doing? What do you mean? Look at me. Look at everybody. Everybody say hi.

[Zach Amico]

Hi.

[Che Durena]

Hi.

[Shannon]

Say hi.

[Che Durena]

Say hi.

[Zach Amico]

How many levels of gross had to happen?

[Che Durena]

I don't know, dude. It has to go. I mean, one good thing.

[Zach Amico]

That's the one. I want to see the blue shirt.

[Shannon]

No, I'm trying.

[Zach Amico]

There we go.

[Shannon]

To get.

[Zach Amico]

This really gets me. Yeah. It really freaks me out.

[Che Durena]

Oh, it is. It's like texas chainsaw massacre type stuff.

[Zach Amico]

Well, there's a lot. So soft, light, underbelly. Did a bunch of. With these guys.

[Che Durena]

Okay. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And there's a video of them where essentially it seems like one of them's trying to say, like, this is where my, my, my family's buried.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And it is assuming that some of them just died and they buried them on the land.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And he's like doing a tour of their house.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And he kind of lets it loose that there's bodies. And it really is fucking scary, dude.

[Che Durena]

The, like, the good thing about that is we know that inbreeding's bad. Like, we know.

[Zach Amico]

We already know.

[Che Durena]

We already know. But it's like sometimes people need, like.

[Sydney Gantt]

They'Re like, oh, it's good to have proof.

[Che Durena]

It's good to have proof.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's good to have proof because some.

[Che Durena]

People go, oh, well, fucking science. The fucking. They the. The same people told you this, told you that.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's like, well, well, I think more the arguments are. But my cousin's so hot.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, that's true.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's true.

[Che Durena]

So how hot is she? How hot is she? That hot. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Taking your 50 year old son to the grocery store, hot.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

No, I sympathize with that because I grew. I grew up in a small town, but with a big giant family. My grandmom had 14 kids on my mom's side.

[Che Durena]

Damn.

[Sydney Gantt]

And there were like over 15 on my dad's side.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like, some of them died in a house fire growing up. But that's what used to happen back then. Yeah. You had to weed out the weak ones.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

If you do, if you get caught in a house fire when you are old enough to open a door and walk out of there.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. It's kind of on you.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's an intelligence test. Yeah.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Well, it's like. Yeah, your. Your senses click in. Like you're sleeping through house fires you.

[Sydney Gantt]

Weren'T made to make, especially before. Like Sega, like in anything to, like, keep them distracted long enough for the fire to rage. Too bad. So I. Two times in my scholastic life, I kissed cousins that I didn't know were cousins until I found out later.

[Che Durena]

Damn. All right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

One. One of the. One of the cousins put her hand below my belt line.

[Che Durena]

Oh.

[Sydney Gantt]

I'm not gonna say what she did, but.

[Che Durena]

But she. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but she was doing.

[Sydney Gantt]

She was doing it.

[Che Durena]

Damn, dude. Well, I guess that happens.

[Sydney Gantt]

And that was the most devastating one because, like, right after that, I walked.

[Zach Amico]

Her home and it was your house.

[Sydney Gantt]

We went through the back door. I've never seen this.

[Zach Amico]

You went through the back door? I thought she just jerked you off.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, no, we got to her house and opened up the door and it Was like, I know that guy. My dad introduced me to him one time as a relative.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And then I went home and told my dad about. I was like, yeah, that's. He goes, she's your cousin.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

But she was so willing to put her hand below my belt line.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

That's a tough one. How old were you?

[Zach Amico]

32.

[Sydney Gantt]

How old was. I don't tell my wife about it. No, it was sixth grade. Sixth. Seventh grade.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. that time, it's, like, such peak horny.

[Sydney Gantt]

And she moved to town.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like, And I only met her in school.

[Che Durena]

Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

And I had access to her. Like, she was one of those kids that was. So I was always in, like, kind of a gifted program.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. School.

[Sydney Gantt]

And sometimes they would put people who didn't quite fit in with the rambunctious classes that they had them in.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And they would let them be in our class for homeroom just to, like, have a breather.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Before going back to the mongoloids that they went to school with. And so every day in homeroom, twice a day, I had access to her.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And showed her what a good boy was.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Yeah. You know, dude. So damn.

[Sydney Gantt]

I won. I want her affection.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And she was like one of those girls to where, like, all the older dudes were trying to get with her. So I felt really amazing.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. And then you're like, oh, fuck, dude.

[Sydney Gantt]

She felt that familial bond, and she was like this guy.

[Zach Amico]

Well, we just talked about that on the show that, like, there's a very. A surprisingly high percentage of moms that give up their sons.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Meet them later in life. And they really. Because. Or just in general. Cousins.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Especially if you're up for adoption.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Feel a spark.

[Zach Amico]

No. You feel a. A familial thing and your body misinterprets it as sexual attraction.

[Che Durena]

Oh. Because you're like, oh, this is comfortable. I like this. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. But you feel the. The nerd. You feel all the things that you would feel for someone you're related to.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

But your body doesn't know how to interpret that.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yes. Yeah. I always feel bad for.

[Zach Amico]

By the way, Shannon, am I completely making that up? Because I've said it on multiple episodes, and I feel like it could be one of those things that I may be kind of heard and then just has said as a fact.

[Che Durena]

I love those.

[Sydney Gantt]

I don't care what information she comes back with. I'm believing that.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

That is my fact.

[Che Durena]

Fuck the Internet.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, dude, I fucking pissed off. So many celebrity chefs.

[Che Durena]

Oh, why? What you do?

[Zach Amico]

I thought I was right, but apparently I was Just let me say this. I'll look into the camera. I'm dumb and sometimes I hear a thing. It sticks with me. I forget where I heard it, and I assume it's something that I know for a fact. I said on an episode kind of recently that on cooking competitions, they have sous chefs that recreate the food.

[Che Durena]

Oh, okay. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Because somebody must have told me that years ago.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And I just committed it as fact to my memory.

[Sydney Gantt]

That too easily make sense. Yeah, it's easy. It's too easy to believe, to not believe it.

[Zach Amico]

And I said that, and then they clipped it.

[Sydney Gantt]

And.

[Zach Amico]

The Food Network stars came out of the woodwork to call your boy an idiot. Never did. I think I would have a paragraph long hate response from Andrew Zimmerman, who's.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, well, you were calling out their honor.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

By saying that.

[Zach Amico]

Dude, it was the most star studded comment section I have ever had.

[Shannon]

I don't know if you saw that. Wells, who I believe is on a. Maybe a former season of Traders, but he's from the Bachelor. I'm gonna. I'm share it right now. So we could scroll through some of the check marks. You can see some of the chefs that commented, so. But there's Wells. Rocco dispirito.

[Zach Amico]

Yep. Oh, dude, I got fucking destroyed on this. I got destroyed, dude. I got my ass eaten alive in these comments, dude.

[Shannon]

So, yeah, a whole bunch of stuff. I know that. I thought the Andrew Zimmerman one would show up at the top.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, dude, there's some wild ones.

[Shannon]

Yeah, they're not happy with you.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, yeah, they are pissed at me.

[Che Durena]

Love it. Love it.

[Zach Amico]

So on behalf of my guests that day, I will say I was wrong. But I did have one or two chefs reach out to me personally and. And say they might be hiding a bit of a smokescreen.

[Che Durena]

Oh, okay.

[Zach Amico]

There is more to it.

[Che Durena]

Okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

I'm going to say this. Zach didn't say this. I'm saying this. Andrew Zimmerman's playing both sides of this.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, dude, I did have. I did have two or three DMs that go from pro chefs that are like, oh, yeah, these celebrity chefs are fucking all smoke and mirrors.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Nobody's cooking that. That is all fucking sous chefs doing that. And they don't want that. They don't like this. The idea of you blowing up their shit now, I don't think that's real. I think those people were lying to me.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, dude. You get exposed. Food Network, dude.

[Zach Amico]

What is the views and comments? It's a fucking watt for a show that. For my stupid show. Yeah, it did pretty good, Shannon.

[Shannon]

It's over 140,000 views. And then the comments, I have to look on my phone because I can't see it here one second. But yeah, every day I get notifications of another chef being pissed off and commenting on it.

[Zach Amico]

I mean, not just like, hey, not true.

[Shannon]

Vitriol shared over 1200 times.

[Che Durena]

Wow.

[Shannon]

And over 150 comments.

[Che Durena]

Wow. Damn. Yeah. No Rage made is the meta.

[Zach Amico]

And I will say that is because I thought I heard of it. It's like the Tom Segura bit where he thought Tommy Lee Jones was gay because his dad told him it once.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

It's very similar. That, Like, I swear somebody told me that.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, yeah, dog. You should not feel bad about it. In the future that we live in now, if somebody really wants the information, they can fact check it themselves.

[Zach Amico]

Totally.

[Che Durena]

And we're just. We're idiots on a podcast. Like, it's like, wait, wait, what do you think? If you're coming to us and being like, well, Zach Amico told me, it's like, what is that gonna hold up in a court of law?

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, I. I am. I'm just spreading the news, dude. And I. I didn't know.

[Shannon]

I got Chef Antonia also.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, yeah, that's the one.

[Shannon]

You could share it. She just says false. Yeah, but she did comment. I'll go to her page real quick.

[Che Durena]

Hot.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, she's cute. I like her. I think I like Chef Alex. Those are my bitches. I love them.

[Che Durena]

Those are my bitches.

[Shannon]

At least Chef Alex didn't yell at you yet.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, no.

[Zach Amico]

I would be heartbroken if Chef.

[Sydney Gantt]

What is Chef Antonia on a bunch.

[Zach Amico]

Of the Food Network shit.

Okay. Yeah. Well, hey, guys. Maybe they are there.

[Zach Amico]

It was the first time my wife realized that, like, I have an audience, okay? Because she was like, this is the. She's like, I've never been so starstruck by. By a comment section.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

But, yes, I fucked that up, everybody. I'll take it. I'll. And I'll. I will very. I apologize to those of you that I pissed off with my misunderstanding. And I hope you're probably gonna hate me forever because I said that.

[Shannon]

I found Andrew Zimmerman's post.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, hell yeah. Read it.

[Shannon]

This is the biggest pile of bullshit I've ever heard. Like, some of my other colleagues have mentioned, complete and utter bs. You might want to ask the same question of how competition shows work, only this time, ask people who have done hundreds of them. We do exist, and we are happy to share. Oh, should we reach out to him?

[Sydney Gantt]

Reach out to him?

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, 100%.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, get. Get him on here with me and Shay.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, 100%.

[Sydney Gantt]

Let's grill this.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, dude, it's like what we said. We got some comments here in the DM that are.

[Zach Amico]

So here's the thing. Years ago, I had tweeted this before Anthony Bourdain died. That Anthony Bourdain looks like he'll put a finger in your ass without asking. And Andrew Zimmerman looks like he likes to get peed on. Yes. And Andrew Zimmerman liked it.

[Che Durena]

Okay. Wow.

[Zach Amico]

So I'm trying to figure out if he already had a bug in his ass about me.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, he was like, fuck this guy, dude. He says I like to get pissed on, then I don't know how to cook.

[Sydney Gantt]

That was the line.

[Che Durena]

That was the line. Yeah, dude, whatever.

[Zach Amico]

All right. Police are looking for Florida boy who murdered a duck. Oh, wow, Shannon.

[Che Durena]

Killing ducks.

[Shannon]

Can I just say, I hate this very much.

[Sydney Gantt]

I do, too.

[Che Durena]

Murdered is a long length to go for a duck.

[Sydney Gantt]

I mean, I. I doubt the police are gonna find it because they're all quacks. I'm done. Yeah, I'm Done.

[Che Durena]

That's great.

[Shannon]

There you go.

[Zach Amico]

They should at least bill them for it.

[Che Durena]

Disturbing. This all happened on Sunday here.

[Sydney Gantt]

Look at young Chase.

[Che Durena]

Oh, Jesus.

[Sydney Gantt]

He's dropping a.

[Zach Amico]

What did this duck do? It's on the ground.

[Sydney Gantt]

This is why we don't let fights go to the ground, dude.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, this is why you don't let him go to the ground. Oh, my God. And sadly stomped it to death. Now, damn, that kid looks feral.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, he looks like a jungle child.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah. Not. Not hood.

[Che Durena]

The way he catches it. He corners it. Like, this isn't the first time this kid's caught foul with his bare hands and calls police. There is a $5,000 cash reward for information that leads to police identifying that young dude. Look at them.

[Sydney Gantt]

If you have any off about this. If he eats that duck, is it a crime? He just did.

[Che Durena]

I don't know. Yeah, it's like, if. Is he catching it? Just. He was just killing it for love of the game, which is the problem.

[Zach Amico]

Now, we do have an exclusive here on the show.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

I have audio of what happened right before that. And this is actually what the duck said to the kid. Come on. So it all fancy in all fairness.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

It was a touchy situation.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's fair. But, like, I mean, that duck wasn't wrong about that kid.

[Che Durena]

The whole thing of $5,000 cash prize to fucking information. That's a little steep.

[Sydney Gantt]

I know. What are they, Wayfair or Epstein?

[Che Durena]

It's like, dude, the kid fucking stomped a duck. The kid's weird.

[Zach Amico]

The kid's a sociopath.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, that's a weird.

[Zach Amico]

If anything, that's. Let's get a serial killer off the street before they're a serial killer.

[Shannon]

I just want to say real quick that I read in the article about this that they said a lot of people are saying that this is probably an indication that the child is being abused, and then that's part of the reason why they're trying to find the child so they can investigate. Investigate? Well, yeah, It's a child's home life.

[Che Durena]

That kid looked like he ran right out of the forest. That kid looks like he just fucking.

[Zach Amico]

He looks like he ran out of the house from people under the stairs.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, like, he, like, ripped a collar off his neck and just bolted and then killed the first thing he saw because he thought that the duck was gonna snitch on him or something. Yeah, he's like, the duck's gonna tell him where I live.

[Sydney Gantt]

He looked like the whole time he was running after that duck, he was.

[Che Durena]

Screaming yeah, yeah, that kid looked creepy.

[Zach Amico]

Shannon, what did you have to say?

[Shannon]

Oh, I just, I, I. In. In Staten Island, I'm not sure if you guys know this, but we have turkeys running around. And I saw. I was walking home one day, and there's like a little bit of a field, and there were a couple of kids walking through the field, and there was like a mama turkey and her two little baby turkeys walking behind her. And they were throwing things at them. They were picking up rocks and they were throwing cans and bottles and stuff. And I was like. I was like, hey, excuse me. I was like, can you just maybe leave them alone? It's a baby. And then they looked at me for a second and they walked away. So I.

[Zach Amico]

Throwing cancer.

[Shannon]

I saved the turkey's life.

[Zach Amico]

Good for you, Shannon.

[Che Durena]

No, that kid looked like he stunk.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

Stunk.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. That kid is a problem in school.

[Che Durena]

Oh, first, if he's in school, I don't think he looks like non verbal.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, I think the white mom that he has, which for sure. His mom's white and his dad's black. Yeah, his mom's a Whitaker.

[Che Durena]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a big time Whitaker.

[Zach Amico]

And his dad's. Oh, yeah. No, that kid looked. I think he also might probably be developmentally disabled.

[Che Durena]

The way. Yeah, dude, he was feral. Yeah, yeah. The way he's moving, the way he cornered that thing, that was like, I run on all fours.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, that was very.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, that kid's got long fingernails with dirt underneath him.

[Sydney Gantt]

I mean, he looks like he's been training to tackle Barry Standards his whole life.

[Che Durena]

He takes a step out, then he steps like, he's like, he's like, you're not getting away. Duck.

[Zach Amico]

My uncle Angelo fought a goose one time and the goose him up, it was all goose. It was fucking ten, eight goose, dude.

[Che Durena]

Ten, eight goose.

[Zach Amico]

He. He jumped out of the car and he's like, my uncle Angelo was crazy. Yeah, he had stars tattooed on his knuckles so that people saw stars before and after he hit them.

[Che Durena]

And he got fucked up by a goose.

[Zach Amico]

He was an electrician. I don't think I need to say a lot more. Yeah, yeah, he. He was a little, tiny, tiny little guy.

[Sydney Gantt]

Method pills, neither good for him.

[Che Durena]

Oh, wow.

[Zach Amico]

Sober, but crazy good for him. And yeah, he jumped out of a car one time and was like, I'm gonna see if I can fight this goose. Nope. He also, I believe, broke his hand one time because he went to throw a handful of jelly beans at someone out of the car.

[Sydney Gantt]

How could this go wrong?

[Zach Amico]

And forgot the window was up.

[Che Durena]

There it is.

[Zach Amico]

And smashed his. Broke his head full. But then he had a broken head full of mashed up jelly. And another story I will tell you guys off the air because it's pretty rough.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Dude. My sister, she used to have, like, really bad luck when she was a little kid. She was a little chunky kid. I mean, she was chunky as she grew up too. But one time at Manatoni park in Pottstown, I was down there. We. I forget what we were down there for, but I was assigned with watching my younger siblings and dogs. She was like, feeding geese in the water. A goose popped out of the water, flanked her.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And she's still, like throwing geese. She turns around, he jumps up, drop kicks her into the water and like, keeps, like kicking her. Like, dude, it was like a fucking street fighter move.

[Shannon]

Like pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like a 30 hit combo until she fell in the water. And I just watched.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like, I didn't even, like, advance on the situation as it was happening.

[Zach Amico]

One time, my dad put animal crackers in my aunt's hood. She had like a hoodie on.

[Che Durena]

Beautiful.

[Zach Amico]

At like a. A park with a bunch of ducks, of geese.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And he filled her hood with animal crackers. And I just remember my aunt running.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And just lines of birds chasing her.

[Che Durena]

When I was a kid, we used to. We would take the pieces of our lunch we didn't like and we put them in dog. So the seagulls would come and eat. Eat the dog.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's diabolical. Yeah, I know. I don't even know why that's a problem, but that is diabolical.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. We were just bored. Everyone was like, oh, I don't like this part. I let you just.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, dog.

[Che Durena]

And then you see the seagulls and we be like, ah, they're eating this.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's also satisfying a curiosity. So I almost support that.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's like, will they still eat it?

[Che Durena]

Will they eat the. Yeah, will they?

[Sydney Gantt]

Will they?

[Che Durena]

The thing is, they did. They. They ate that dog.

[Zach Amico]

Dude, that is brutal. Let's get one more thing in before we're done here. Shannon, you got anything you want? You know, let's do this. Karen is canceled. Meet her younger, sassier cousin who's entitled, abrasive, and also wants to speak to your manager. This is. Apparently there's a new term. Karen is outdated.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And what is the. What is the new white woman name that we are using?

[Sydney Gantt]

Not Jackie is It. Jackie.

[Zach Amico]

No. But same first letter.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay. Jen.

[Zach Amico]

No.

[Sydney Gantt]

Jenny. Jocelyn. Joy. Jehovah.

[Zach Amico]

You're J. E. J E. Yes. 100 Jessica. Yeah. Now there's not Karen. Now the younger version of Karen is the Jessica Shannon.

[Shannon]

I mean, that. That's really the long and the short of it. It's just like that's what they're switching over now to. Anybody who is, like, complaining, wants to talk to the manager, yada, yada.

[Che Durena]

Why are we Karen?

[Sydney Gantt]

I know Shannon. You must have felt like you dodged a bullet with that because Shannon could for sure be that name.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, it's like, how many names you're gonna take for this?

[Sydney Gantt]

Almost every Shane and I know is very, like, also following works.

[Che Durena]

I don't understand why we would switch to Jessica. Like, I feel like this is someone trying to push something that's not gonna stick.

[Zach Amico]

I feel like Karen might be a generational thing. Yeah, it's like the. The John and Kate plus eight lady haircut. Yeah, that's a Karen.

[Sydney Gantt]

She's an old school Karen. That's like the prototypical, the short hair.

[Zach Amico]

I feel like a Jessica could be like the next generation. Not like the mom haircut.

[Sydney Gantt]

Like, Jessica could have, like, a nose ring.

[Che Durena]

Like one of those fair.

[Zach Amico]

We're going to end it with this. Gunfight erupts when teens try to steal exotic puppies.

[Sydney Gantt]

Wait, what kind of fight?

[Zach Amico]

Gunfight.

[Sydney Gantt]

Thought you said come fight.

[Zach Amico]

Nope.

[Sydney Gantt]

What the hell are we living in, dude? Come fight. Come fight. Weapon.

[Che Durena]

Come.

[Sydney Gantt]

Hold on. I gotta shake my balls. They're a little clumpy.

[News Reporter]

It was like a scene out of a movie. A gun battle over pricey exotic dogs.

[Zach Amico]

What gun is that?

[Che Durena]

I don't know, dude. And who shoots a gun like that?

[News Reporter]

Her and her girlfriend's life is forced to fire after a group of young men start shooting at her.

[Che Durena]

You gotta knock on the door.

[News Reporter]

The three young men you can clearly see in this ring video went to the woman's comb around.

[Zach Amico]

The second it said teens.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

I had a feeling. I didn't want to say it. The ring camera had to set it for me. Yeah. When it said steel. Exotic puppies.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Well, that. That threw me off because it. It didn't say pit bulls.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Do you know me? Exotic puppies. I'm like, all right.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, we like some sort of hairless, like, minx type thing. I don't know.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. Not. But those puppies were cute as hell.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, they were cutest.

[Sydney Gantt]

I knew it was either going to be Whitakers or Whitakers. I knew that for a Fact.

[Zach Amico]

But yeah, let's see this. Yeah.

[Che Durena]

Asians aren't stealing puppies.

[Zach Amico]

Well, they are, but they're taking them in their tummies.

[Sydney Gantt]

Y. You'll never see it. Yeah, you'll never see it.

[Zach Amico]

Look at those cute ass dogs.

[Che Durena]

They don't need to be exotic. Nah.

[News Reporter]

Breeds exotic dogs. And she figured they were there to inquire about them.

[Shannon]

As soon as I turn around, that's when. When he grabbed me.

[News Reporter]

One of the men then grabbed the woman, holding her at gunpoint. There was a struggle.

[Sydney Gantt]

Other guy that was standing here wanted put his brother, put his arm around me, put the gun to my head.

[Zach Amico]

And then I started screaming, trying to.

[Shannon]

Like wiggle myself out.

[News Reporter]

The trio take off with two exotic micro bullies similar to the dogs you see here. They are worth about $4,000 each. The robbers don't leave quietly either. They shoot at the woman and that's when she goes into her home to grab her gun.

[Shannon]

I would have done anything to protect my girl.

[News Reporter]

Yes, so investigators say.

[Sydney Gantt]

Why would they leave quietly?

[Zach Amico]

I have a feeling they don't enter quietly.

[Sydney Gantt]

You know what I mean? Like, why was that even a descriptor?

[Zach Amico]

I want to. Dude, that gun is terrifying.

[Che Durena]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And by the way, they left. Very rude.

[Che Durena]

Also shoot the way she shoots.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Doesn't hit the car once, though. No.

[Che Durena]

It's like she's trying to get something off the top shelf.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[News Reporter]

Her girlfriend's life is forced to fire after a group.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Shoot it down.

[News Reporter]

Shooting at her.

[Zach Amico]

All right. Can I say having that car outside of your house.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. You're gonna get.

[Zach Amico]

Is an invitation for teens to rob you to come look.

[Che Durena]

Yeah. Well, and it's also. It's like you're the house look like. And then you have this car outside. It's like, yeah, we're bad with money. We're making bad decisions. Also, I've never been to a dog breeders place where I go like, oh, you have your. Together. Anytime you go to pick up a dog off a dog breeder, they're like, yeah, some lady smoking. Yeah. They just got birthed. Look at this one. He's too young. This one, he bites a bit. And she has like a. Like a. Like a Not smoking jacket it. But like a. Like a bathrobe or something that's like.

[Zach Amico]

With cigarette burns in it.

[Che Durena]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Dog breeders are always. The house stinks.

[Sydney Gantt]

Two different slippers.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, we're gonna get so many comments from dog breeder, from celebrity dog breeders. I'm so glad I don't do this show. Anymore. But, yeah, that car. That is a Rob Me car.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Che Durena]

Yeah, dude. Yeah, it's a bright green. Yeah, dude. It's so loud, dog.

[Zach Amico]

Man, these teens. All right, guys, we're gonna call the show there. Thank you so much for tuning in. I want to thank my guests, Che Durana and Sydney Gantt, Two Goons and World War Fun. Did we ever do plugs?

[Sydney Gantt]

We never did plug.

[Zach Amico]

I'm so sorry.

[Sydney Gantt]

I thought it was a new thing.

[Zach Amico]

No, no, let's do some plugs. I apologize, Sid. What do you want people to check out, dog?

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, you know, just check me and Ryan Shaner at World War Fun, the comedy podcast where each week we take a theme and turn it inside out. We basically declare World War I on a new theme every week. So come check us out. We're having a really good time over there.
