  • Everyone agrees that the cop’s statements were bad and not fit for a law enforcement officer, but debate whether his messages rise to the level of “condemnable white supremacy.”

  • Watching various reviewers (and the group’s live commentary).
  • Zac: “Pineapple is already so goddamn sweet…” (47:49)
  • “The amount of sugar as 20–35 Krispy Kremes or 30 cans of Coke in one sitting.” (46:57)

Well, hello, and it is a joyous Wednesday here in New York City at the Gas Digital Studios. And it's me, your other boy, the international superstar Zach Amico saying welcome to the Zoo Zoo files. It's going to be a great day. Across the table from me, two of my favorite people to broadcast with from the very important race, the movie, the play.com is our great friend, the incredibly talented, wildly ambitious Brett Rabel.

[Zach Amico]

Doesn't matter. You know what? As long as you get to the finish line, I don't care what percentage of talent and what percentage of hustle got you there.

It's low on. Yeah, some good hustle though.

But let's start in a non racial Maryland police moment.

[Sydney Gantt]

Let's see how racist we can make this. Non racial moment.

[Zach Amico]

Let's keep it. Let's start non racial bizarre moment. Maryland police arrest suspect as his pants and underwear fall down.

[Sydney Gantt]

Which one fell down first?

[Zach Amico]

Oh, well, he's quite a big fella.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, shit.

[Zach Amico]

Nah, bro.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, that's a big deal.

[Zach Amico]

Nah, bro. Oh, nah, Nah, bro.

[Sydney Gantt]

I mean, at this point, I don't even know. I don't care what he did. That's the punishment.

[Brett Raybould]

Just let him go uncensored. And now it's. That's the punishment.

[Zach Amico]

I think you step on the back of them and push him.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, you know how to do justice.

[Zach Amico]

That's just you step on where the belt is and it's you and the other cop just heave home right into the street.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, God, don't do that to the street. The poor infrastructure now the infrastructure's already crumbling, Zach. You want more potholes?

[Zach Amico]

I will say as a fat person, having to pick up your pants is part of your day.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay?

[Zach Amico]

And now once you are handcuffed. Are restrained.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, it is.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, man.

[Zach Amico]

A matter of time.

[Sydney Gantt]

Is there ever a context where your pants fall down and you're just like,

[Zach Amico]

ah, it constantly at home. The amount of times I am walking back into the living room with like a beer in one hand and something in the other and my pants start to go and I have no underwear on. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I will just penguin walk into the living room with my fucking light switch out.

[Sydney Gantt]

What does Mrs. Amico say about that?

[Zach Amico]

Jesus Christ.

[Brett Raybould]

That's her safe word. Oh, Jesus fucking Christ.

[Zach Amico]

You just watched the sadness.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Melt over. You hear, hello, darkness, my old friend.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Dude, that's like when you have a wife, you see that look at least five times. If you don't see that look at least five times a day, you're not being a man in your house.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Because you're in your own house. There is no. That's an okay Place to let them hang.

[Zach Amico]

Sometimes you gotta.

[Brett Raybould]

Sometimes you gotta. How. How often do you feel like you have to replace a pair of pants? Like our sweatpants. Does a waistband really good?

[Zach Amico]

No, because I. Very rarely. That's a nighttime thing.

[Brett Raybould]

Yes.

[Zach Amico]

And I usually go big and tie them rather than like just tying that.

[Brett Raybould]

I can pull them off.

[Sydney Gantt]

You don't test the structural integrity of the elastic. You just go bigger.

[Zach Amico]

I rather go bigger and tie it off.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And that way I can be comfortable.

[Brett Raybould]

Do you use, like a full rope to tie?

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Like a cattle rope or.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. How many people help you tie that?

[Zach Amico]

You know, the aerialists that, like, go all the way up to the se. Kneeling and down. I just lay on the floor and I have them do tricks around me. That's how my pants fit.

[Brett Raybould]

I'm picturing all. Or maybe a bungee cord. One of those clip bungee cords.

[Zach Amico]

Well, there's not. Once the band go. Once it goes inside the pants, you're kind of.

[Sydney Gantt]

I'm oscillating between Cirque du Soleil and the Blue Man Group that are doing that.

[Zach Amico]

Yes, of course. Once they're. Once the bands has gone inside the pants, they are now fucked.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah. What do you mean the band has

[Zach Amico]

gone inside the string that you tie them with? Once it's gone inside the holes?

[Brett Raybould]

Dude.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

I spent like 20 minutes the other day just kneading it because it really went in and I just needed it out.

[Sydney Gantt]

Did you use no tool? Just all hand.

[Brett Raybould]

I did it all hand that. What an incredible craftsman. It actually was.

[Sydney Gantt]

Or it's discipline or lack of ingenuity.

[Brett Raybould]

It's both. You really should just tie a little knot before. But it's a whole.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. All that bragging about that ambition. I mean, it's. Good lord.

[Brett Raybould]

I had E.T. on. I watched E.T. while I was doing.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. Okay. I will say in most cases for me, I blow through pajama pants quick. That's. I blow out the crotch on them.

[Brett Raybould]

It's the crotch.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

The crotch goes on pants.

[Zach Amico]

For me, the. I cannot keep pajama pants. I'll just get up. And now there's a hole from my knee to my asshole this big.

[Brett Raybould]

Hanging balls, man.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Your ball sweat balance is off. You guys are.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

You guys have corrosive nut sweat.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. That's crazy.

[Sydney Gantt]

That was like. That was like my teenage years, like, from like. Like mid teens to about 24. I was pretty corrosive.

[Brett Raybould]

How did you get ahold of your corrosive nut sweat?

[Sydney Gantt]

I don't know. If I did, I just, I just changed my pants more often. So, like, now I'll wear pants for no more than two weeks straight without washing them. And then I have five pairs of the same jeans. And I'm saying that while I grabbed a pair of jeans that are out of rotation this morning, like, these should not be worn.

[Brett Raybould]

These are past players.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. They're past the two weeks right now. So I, I, I feel like I'm kind of stealing right now. But it is true. I typically don't go more than two weeks without washing.

[Brett Raybould]

What is it about pants that you, you wouldn't really wear a shirt two days in a row, but pants, you're like, I'm rocking these pants for half a month.

[Zach Amico]

If you change the underwear. Yeah, of course, that's, that's all.

[Brett Raybould]

Not to act like a clean freak, but I do change the underwear from time to time.

[Zach Amico]

As long as you change, I think

[Brett Raybould]

it's time to do.

[Sydney Gantt]

At some point in the early 2000s, it came out that you shouldn't be washing your jeans. And no man should have heard that information.

[Brett Raybould]

We, like, we already were like, what, Are you kidding? No, man. These pants haven't been washed.

[Zach Amico]

I would be wearing a hoodie two days in a row.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

You have a T shirt on under there. It's fine.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's fair.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. I'm also, you know, I play it a little fast and loose. Sure.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Pajama pants. I blow through. What happened? When I first started shopping for myself, I found outlet malls.

[Sydney Gantt]

Mm.

[Zach Amico]

And there was a place that used to have $5 jeans. And I thought it was the coolest. I would get three, three wears out of them, tops, and then they would just explode off my body.

[Sydney Gantt]

You, you had disposable jeans?

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

They're single use jeans.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

The best jeans, by the way, they were awful.

[Zach Amico]

But that you just kill them immediately. The crotch would blow out on them immediately.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's very Mongolian of you.

[Zach Amico]

Thank you.

[Brett Raybould]

Why is that Mongolian?

[Sydney Gantt]

So, like the Genghis Khan era of Mongols, they didn't change their clothes. They wore them until they fell off and then they would put on new ones. It was considered, I don't want to say sacrilegious, but it was considered improper to wash. Really? Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

We gotta go back. I would be very. I'd be considered royalty in the Mongolian era.

[Zach Amico]

As gross as I am, I know how gross I used to be.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

The amount of times I would Febreze clothes before putting them on in my

[Sydney Gantt]

early 20s, another thing that no man should have had knowledge of. Febreze.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, the amount of. The amount of water we saved when Febreze came out from men showering is crazy.

[Brett Raybould]

Men are environmentalists. I'm washing my sheets twice a year.

[Sydney Gantt]

Nobody gives us credit for that, though.

[Brett Raybould]

I know women, definitely. They buy more. They're killing the environment. They're bigger consumers.

[Zach Amico]

My biggest determinant from doing laundry is that Amazon has the buy it again option.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

So I'm like, am I going to do laundry or am I buying another 20 pair of socks?

[Sydney Gantt]

Again.

[Zach Amico]

Again.

[Sydney Gantt]

Again.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Get on a subscription.

[Zach Amico]

I know those socks are. I'm getting two wears out of them.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Can I ask you a personal question?

[Zach Amico]

Of course. Always.

[Brett Raybould]

Have you ever found food in your body?

[Zach Amico]

No, I can't say.

[Brett Raybould]

My sister, whose doctor has recently found that in patient, like, hidden. Yeah, she. He was, you know, very large. Like he might have made you, you know, look like it's very slightly less fat. No, but he and she said there was like a third of a foot long sandwich. There's about 4 inches of sandwich that was in a roll.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, no.

[Brett Raybould]

He was like.

[Sydney Gantt]

Who?

[Brett Raybould]

Might have been. Might have been.

[Sydney Gantt]

Wait a second though, because I feel like we might be projecting on this human being a little bit. Are we sure it was a third of a foot long? It could have also been like a couple bites of a six inch.

[Brett Raybould]

It could. It could have been two thirds of a six inch. Yeah, I don't.

[Sydney Gantt]

I don't.

[Brett Raybould]

You're right. You're right.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

Unless I had the evidence, I'm not gonna put that on that man.

[Brett Raybould]

It was. She said it was not a new sandwich.

[Sydney Gantt]

I'll give it a. Some eaten sandwich.

[Zach Amico]

For a fact.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's what we know statistically.

[Zach Amico]

For a fact. I occasionally, if I come home wearing jeans and have change in them and then I change into pajamas, if some of that change falls out, I will wake up with like a nickel on my back for way too long.

[Brett Raybould]

Come on. That's. That's the. That's like the obese man's good luck charm.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, it's gonna be a good day.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. I will occasionally have that.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's also how the enemies. Like when they. When they murder a fat guy, instead of putting the coins on their eyes.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. They just stick them to them just

[Sydney Gantt]

stick dimes to their body.

[Brett Raybould]

Like. Like pickles on a window.

[Zach Amico]

You just kind of throw it. All right. We have a continuing amount of. I didn't mean for this doll to be racial, but then it's also my algorithm right now.

[Sydney Gantt]

I'm sorry. Because we didn't get a chance to. Are suspenders a thing for you? Do you ever think about suspenders?

[Zach Amico]

I like them, but I feel like they pull my pants up super high. And if you wear suspenders, you kind of got to tuck in.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And I don't want to look like I'm. Children.

[Sydney Gantt]

Look like you have grandkids.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, I pull up my pants up to my. I'm sure I will reach that.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

But as for right now, I mean, I also wear mostly the girl tights at this point.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

I'm a comfy boy. Really? Yeah, yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Like the black tights.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Those are really comfort. Yeah. I get the ones with pockets, like Lululemon I get from the company Torrid. They're like a fat girl company.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, sick.

[Zach Amico]

And they. And you just get them with pockets and they're pretty good quality.

[Brett Raybould]

Is that because everyone has kick around at home clothes? Like, as soon as my day is

[Zach Amico]

done, I put on basketball shorts.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah, same. It's like the same pair of shorts pretty much every day. Yeah. What is yours? Basketball shorts. Who's on the logo? Is there specific?

[Zach Amico]

Just generic black or generic like with a stripe on the side?

[Sydney Gantt]

It's n. 1, 2, 3.

[Brett Raybould]

The sandwich.

[Zach Amico]

So that's the thing about fat guy clothes is the fatter you are, the more generic they get.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

So for a while, when Big J was very heavy.

[Brett Raybould]

Sure.

[Zach Amico]

He had the same rock and roll T shirts that every big fat guy had, which was Beatles, AC dc, Johnny Cash with the Jack Daniels bottle.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And there's like one more. But you see every fat guy had.

[Brett Raybould]

It's gotta be like Ramones.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. Cause they had them at big and tall. Oh. But then when you get really fat, it's to the point where you can't even get like a team shirt. It'll just be a shirt that says, like sports.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. So you start off with name brand stuff, and the bigger you get, you end up with like clothes. Brand clothes.

[Zach Amico]

Yes, very much so.

[Brett Raybould]

There's that one line of Big Guy shirts. It's like the dog. There's like.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, Big Dog.

[Zach Amico]

That was. Oh, it's called Big. That was a store the 90s. That was a store in the 90s.

[Brett Raybould]

It was. I thought it was like in Gap or something.

[Sydney Gantt]

Big Dog was.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, Big Dog was a.

[Brett Raybould]

Big Dog was a sick band, huh?

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. Yeah. They had all the parody shirts.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

We would get them for my Cuban grandfather because he would always complain that Nobody paid attention to him. And he'd go, I am their dog. No one. No one cares about me. I might as well be their dog. So we started buying him big dog stuff all the time.

[Sydney Gantt]

So, Brad, I'm a little confused.

[Zach Amico]

He did not think it was funny.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, I thought. Because I thought. I assumed you were about my age. I thought, you know, I hate to make that assumption now.

[Brett Raybould]

It's about to be offensive. Go ahead.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, we'll see. How old are you?

[Brett Raybould]

34.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, yeah, that's. It's very offensive. Brett, get your shit together. You need more sleeping liquids.

[Brett Raybould]

Dude, how old are you?

[Sydney Gantt]

40. Well, on June 17, on the opening of the movie to play, I'll be 46. I'm sorry.

[Brett Raybould]

See, I just want to know. I just get this on the record. You thought you looked at me and you go, that's a 46 year old man.

[Sydney Gantt]

I was like, he might be a little older than me. That's cool.

[Brett Raybould]

This is heartbreaking.

[Sydney Gantt]

Here we go.

[Brett Raybould]

Zach, what am I doing wrong?

[Zach Amico]

Give. The mustache. It's. It's. You've aged yourself.

[Sydney Gantt]

The mustache. It's the. Busted. Yeah, no, but.

[Brett Raybould]

Busted.

[Sydney Gantt]

You're so. No, dude, you're.

[Brett Raybould]

My heart is right.

[Sydney Gantt]

You're so busy with race, the movie, the place.

[Brett Raybould]

Shut up. Don't try and fake flatter.

[Narrator (News Segment)]

And water.

[Brett Raybould]

You're so busy. You're doing so much.

[Zach Amico]

It was growing. It was living without hot water for so long. I think it was all those cold

[Sydney Gantt]

water baths, which is supposed to be good for the skin, by the way.

[Brett Raybould]

This is good. All right? This is good. I need it. I needed someone to tell me I looked 46 today.

[Zach Amico]

All right, so let's start here. Let's start easy before we get into body cam stuff. Racist state trooper resigned in disgrace after wife reveals shocking white supremacist messages in divorce filings. This just seems like a better woman.

[Sydney Gantt]

Text messages should always be off limits. They don't. They don't determine your. Whether or not you're racist or not racist. What is that, like your perception, your perspective on race or ethnicity. He's having fun with the boys.

[Brett Raybould]

Someone's text got leaked.

[Zach Amico]

So it was a state trooper. His wife submitted white supremacist messages in their divorce. This sounds like a scorned woman who knew she was married to a white supremacist.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And may have been okay with that at one point.

[Sydney Gantt]

I should probably not back him before. I see.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, let's not. Let's not not let Sid dig this one too deep.

[Sydney Gantt]

But Zach When I see these things, immediately I go to protect me and my ilk.

[Zach Amico]

Of course.

[Sydney Gantt]

Do you understand what I'm saying?

[Zach Amico]

Of course.

[Sydney Gantt]

There are some text messages that I send that would not look well. No. Yeah, it's like, in fact, would be very, very bad.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah, it's a little. It's a little shitty to just like in a divorce. First off, it's state trooper, so, you know, the guy is not like killing, like, it's not like take him down from his pedestal sitting next to a highway nine hours a day. But it is. It does reek of like. Okay, so we're just character assassinating. It's shitty. It's one of the worst things. White supremacist. It's awful. But it just sounds like. See, he's a too.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

The only thing I can imagine is maybe she left him or was in the process of leaving him for another race and he blew up in the texts.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay.

[Zach Amico]

She was leaving him for maybe an African American gentleman.

[Sydney Gantt]

Still. Even. Even more so that his texts shouldn't be publicized. No, Like, I should be. No, dude, if you leave me for anything, I don't care what it is. I should be allowed to say the worst possible thing about that thing. You left me for like two months. I get a two month grace period or I get. I do. That's the only way to get an N word pass is if your wife starts banging a black guy. You got two months. Use it wisely.

[Brett Raybould]

Use it. Probably not in public because I don't think other people like, all right, I see. But I see. I see your perspective on like. Yeah. If someone does something shitty to you privately, like. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

It's the permission to go from singing it in rap songs to singing it in country songs.

[Sydney Gantt]

Just finding places for it in countryside.

[Zach Amico]

No, no, they exist.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Fair.

[Zach Amico]

Every time I put on country music, Mrs. Amico does make me preface when she goes, is this racist or not? Before you put it on.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's fair.

[Zach Amico]

And I say, no. And then every once in a while I forget, they'll drop it.

[Sydney Gantt]

She's like, jesus Christ, pull your pants up. Stop the racism. What is going on here?

[Zach Amico]

Which song has the David Allen Coe if that ain't country?

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah, it's kind of.

[Zach Amico]

And then he had a whole album called the double X rated album. And that has it a lot.

[Sydney Gantt]

Well, he told you it was double X rated.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, it was. At the time, I think it was akin to like the dirty album.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

So he was just being offensive.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, we played it on here.

[Zach Amico]

We played it on here.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, I was on that episode.

[Zach Amico]

this racist state trooper.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

Okay, so just to give you like a little bit of more information, the reason why she brought these texts to the court is because she's trying to get full custody of her kids. And she said that she felt that over time he's like, gotten like more and more hateful and she doesn't want that to wear off on the kids. So I'm going to show you two screenshots first and I'll read you some of the other ones.

[Brett Raybould]

I hope, Please, I hope they're just like, I didn't like moonlight, you know what I mean?

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

Okay, so this is one where he's showing a Hispanic guy that he had arrested and saying, this is a trophy pick.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, yeah, like a fish.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, so far so good.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

And then this one, let me see if I can scroll, roll in a little bit.

[Brett Raybould]

Okay.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

Ray says, oh, look, usual suspect doing the usual crime.

[Sydney Gantt]

Another, let's see, that's not even the usual suspect, though. So he. This is, this is personal. That why that guy is the usual suspect is probably a little more nuanced than we realize.

[Brett Raybould]

He probably said that because it was a Mexican dude.

[Sydney Gantt]

There you go. I thought the guy was black. See, I gotta be honest, just this

[Zach Amico]

guy's profile picture in his wife's phone does not look becoming of someone not being a white supremacist.

[Brett Raybould]

Wait, can we see? Yeah, the wife's profile photo.

[Zach Amico]

Just go up to him.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah, I Mean using your profile photo as the car selfie that does. The car selfie.

[Zach Amico]

The front seat selfie is very tight. Like, I'm going to be getting some messages, you know. Yeah, you were funny on Kumia once, but your politics suck. And, yeah, you're fat faggot piece of shit. I hate you. Yeah, but bring it. So we got Shannon.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

Okay, so some of the text that he sent her said that he frequently demeaned his wife for her goodwill and not liking that she didn't hate immigrants enough. One of the texts is, you don't hate them enough. The shit that clogged up their son's toilet is worth more to me than any of them.

[Sydney Gantt]

What was in that, though? We need to know.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

What they had to get out of that.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

Another one. If we had a nation with a border, you would be on time. This one in N word land, you have to pull guns on people driving down the road. It's what you do all day long, every day.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's how we say hi.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

And then kids that actually have dads don't get to see them because they have to go deal with it. Hold on. There is another one. Let me just find it. Another lot. N word 1.

[Brett Raybould]

Are you scrolling through you and Lewis's

[Sydney Gantt]

texts or which text is he claiming, if I'm not mistaken? Allow me to still man his claim that black fathers are so derelict in their duties that police and black fathers makes those police bad fathers.

[Zach Amico]

Not only not home, they're keeping.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's cont. It's contagious.

[Zach Amico]

Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's crazy.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. That's a stretch.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's a stretch.

[Zach Amico]

Sure.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

Let's see. He also said. Let's see. Another tense exchange. She innocently asked him if he could bring their son a drink. Instead, he raged that he couldn't because N words be N wording.

[Sydney Gantt]

It was probably a red drank, and he didn't want it to get taken by all the local N words.

[Zach Amico]

Wait, he couldn't bring his. Not a beverage.

[Sydney Gantt]

A drink very specifically. That's very close to drank, by the way.

[Zach Amico]

Yes.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

I think he's, like, hitting traffic again. And then here's one more of this.

[Zach Amico]

This guy really just hates traffic.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's what it seems like.

[Brett Raybould]

And in court, he goes, I call traffic. The N word. I call. You know, it's traffic bumper to bumper.

[Sydney Gantt]

N word today. It's crazy. That's why I'm 15 minutes late.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, we're nostril to nostril out here.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

This is. This is one more of the screenshots.

[Zach Amico]

Three white girls on the homecoming court. They had been nine queens though, period. They breaking barriers. History. Okay, yeah. So he's got. I don't know.

[Sydney Gantt]

I've seen worse.

[Zach Amico]

It's Maryland, right?

[Brett Raybould]

Have him as a guest.

[Zach Amico]

No, it wasn't Maryland. Was.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

The last one's Arkansas.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, come on. That's the least racist cop in Arkansas.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, that's Nelson Mandela. That's the Nelson Mandela of white cops.

[Zach Amico]

What do you want, man? Sorry. You married a cop from Arkansas? Lady, you fucking the judge?

[Brett Raybould]

The judge looks like you married a liberal queer.

[Zach Amico]

I mean, yeah, of course he's a bad person. Of course. I wouldn't want not want someone in law enforcement speak like that.

[Sydney Gantt]

Come on.

[Zach Amico]

You married a Kyle from market.

[Brett Raybould]

So I mean, yeah, I love we always have to do the quick little conditionals. It's like, yeah, it's bad, we know it's bad.

[Zach Amico]

We know it's bad.

[Brett Raybould]

But he's an Arkansas cop.

[Sydney Gantt]

But do you, do you guys can consider that full fledged condemnable. Condemnable white supremacy.

[Brett Raybould]

I mean, condemnable.

[Zach Amico]

I'd like to see how he speaks when he's in a good mood.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay.

[Brett Raybould]

Like him when there is no traffic. When there's no traffic.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. When the roads are clear.

[Sydney Gantt]

All the same stuff.

[Brett Raybould]

With a smile on his face. It's a white day.

[Sydney Gantt]

No, I, I, yeah, traffic is wide open.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

You can see from here to here. All right. Well, actually I would love to transition this into. And I. This is one of the things I want Sid's opinion on. Chicago high school grad is denied her diploma after doing split on stage. I've seen a lot of people posting young women using their high school graduation as an opportunity to do a bit of a performance. And the parents go bananas. I mean it like that. Yeah, the parents go crazy. I almost said ape shit.

[Brett Raybould]

You also said bananas.

[Zach Amico]

I really wasn't trying.

[Sydney Gantt]

You kind of did beat around that parents go nuts.

[Zach Amico]

And I guess schools are trying to crack down on this, saying that you're supposed to a hold your cheers to the envy it takes away from the kid who's getting announced. After you, Shannon.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, I'd love to see how ratchet this performance is. Okay.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

So I'm gonna show it to you. This is from like a news article thing, but I picked it because she talks a little bit afterwards.

[Zach Amico]

Too much. That's too much. See how long the dressing everything is. You're covered.

[Narrator (News Segment)]

Meet Tyveon Campbell.

[Interviewee (Tyveon Campbell)]

I will be attending Georgia State University this fall.

[Narrator (News Segment)]

She says she'd been telling friends, family and even classmates for weeks. That for graduation at Chicago Tech Academy High School, her exit was going to be memorable.

[Interviewee (Tyveon Campbell)]

Yes, I gave many warnings. I told my friends, family, and I told my peers, my teachers. I said I'm gonna do a split on stage. But no one took me serious. And when I did, everyone was shocked.

[Narrator (News Segment)]

She followed through. After walking across the stage at the Harold Washington Cultural Center, Campbell waved to the crowd, dropped it into a split with the dance move, popped back up to accept her diploma. Except it never came.

[Interviewee (Tyveon Campbell)]

I did a pretty princess wave, did my split, got back up and I tried to reach my for my diploma and I didn't get it. And I was confused at first. I thought they mixed up my name.

[Narrator (News Segment)]

Video of the moment shows Campbell looking back towards school officials as the audience

[Zach Amico]

cheered the principal telling her now don't get her nothing, don't give her nothing, don't give us.

[Narrator (News Segment)]

The reaction from the crowd was loud. Campbell says the only person who took issue with the celebration or school leader,

[Interviewee (Tyveon Campbell)]

my principal, Ms. Shackle. For she told me I need to think of a way to that squirrel

[Sydney Gantt]

shitting in the trash can.

[Interviewee (Tyveon Campbell)]

And this was supposed to be a celebratory moment. And I made it about myself.

[Narrator (News Segment)]

The 18 year old says she was escorted out of the ceremony and still has not received her diploma. She also says she never saw any written rule prohibiting dances or celebrations during the commencement.

[Interviewee (Tyveon Campbell)]

We did receive rules, but the rules had nothing to do with what you can and cannot do while you walk across the stage.

[Narrator (News Segment)]

For the new graduate, the biggest disappointment isn't the online attention. It's the feeling like a milestone moment was taken away.

[Interviewee (Tyveon Campbell)]

It was disappointing. It really hurt my feelings. I cried and I couldn't even continue

[Zach Amico]

the graduation despite the controversy, cuz they escorted you out.

[Narrator (News Segment)]

She graduated with a 3.5 GPA and plans to study business Administration. Administration,

[Sydney Gantt]

get a diploma. 3.5 GPA. Yeah, I was hoping it was going to be a way lower gpa.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, like she barely made it by a container and then she dropped it

[Sydney Gantt]

below graduation in that split. That's what I was hoping I was going to be able to make the case for. But 3.5, I mean, I'm just relieved

[Brett Raybould]

the administrators weren't a bunch of cornbread white people. It kind of. It makes you go, I feel all right, cool.

[Zach Amico]

It wasn't about that would have been much more just get her out of here. As opposed to these women who were like, we are trying to raise the next generation of proud Nubian princesses and goddesses.

[Sydney Gantt]

So that's that's where I also have to say somebody has to start. And this is going to sound terribly racist, but I have to preface it with I love my black people. Sure. The culture stinks. And this could have. This could be like the first step in flip flopping the expectations of the culture. Right. You can't. Listen, you can't drop it low to get your diploma. That's not a diploma getting activity.

[Zach Amico]

It's.

[Brett Raybould]

I guess

[Zach Amico]

you have to drop it low because you don't have a diploma.

[Brett Raybould]

I. I think.

[Sydney Gantt]

Thank you.

[Brett Raybould]

I think her. Her extra two twerks is like.

[Zach Amico]

So that's. There's a difference between. I did a split and they even said, dropped it. She dropped it. She was. She was throwing ass.

[Sydney Gantt]

She dropped it.

[Brett Raybould]

It's like the Key and Peele sketch of like, she threw two twerks.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

If she just did the Jamini split.

[Sydney Gantt]

How many twerks make it?

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Had she done the splits is a split.

[Zach Amico]

Had she done a cartwheel into a split and then bowed and took her diploma? That is different than doing the split and serving ass.

[Sydney Gantt]

I would even say, terminology wise, she didn't do a split. She dropped it.

[Zach Amico]

Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's the way to classify what she did. She dropped it, Double twerked, popped up, sashayed off, and got exactly what she deserved. Nothing. Nobody deserves anything for those activities. I think society prevailed.

[Brett Raybould]

I don't. I mean.

[Zach Amico]

Now here's my question. Gay guy, if he goes on stage for graduation and does the same moves,

[Brett Raybould]

immediately becomes magna cum laude.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. And I know people are gonna. This is even gonna sound gay that I say this, but I still say no because I can't think of any people who. Shit that I'm more sick of than gay guys. No, you. You don't get credit for twerking anymore. That is dumb. Do. Listen, if you do manly gay, I'll be like, all right, give it to him. Like, if he. If he did a backflip into a push up, I'd be like, yeah, get that man his diploma.

[Zach Amico]

But if a man stand walks on his hands.

[Sydney Gantt]

Thank you. Something manly.

[Brett Raybould]

A feat of strength. Something manly.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, dude, don't make my brain go, what am I?

[Brett Raybould]

You know, do something manly. Punch a hole through drywall. If you do that, then you can get your deployment.

[Sydney Gantt]

Drywall. Was the black chick that came after her, by the way.

[Brett Raybould]

That's. I mean, honestly, I think it's she. Yes. Is it not? The twerks is like, just give the fucking girl her diploma.

[Zach Amico]

She's not graduate. They just Kept the piece of paper do.

[Sydney Gantt]

I didn't. I didn't get my diploma on graduation day for way less.

[Brett Raybould]

What did you do?

[Sydney Gantt]

How many words. I literally. Well, I was about to say I did nothing. And you asked that question. That was different.

[Zach Amico]

Hold on. Is this a. I've seen this on the Internet. Is this a didn't do nothing?

[Sydney Gantt]

This is. This is.

[Zach Amico]

You didn't do nothing.

[Sydney Gantt]

Not only. This is a didn't do nothing. This is nothing. This is a didn't do nothing. This is. What had happened was.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And this is one me. It wasn't me. So I was on the track team. And it was a day, not graduation, but a particular day where we had a track meet. Everybody wears the track jumpsuit. Right. And somebody on my team had to go to a doctor's appointment. He left through where the office was, those doors. He left through. The vice principal thought it was me leaving without an excuse because he knows that if I ever left the school, I would never sneak out of the side doors. I just walk out the front like I'm supposed to. And he knew that about me. He thought that Eric was me. Didn't say anything for, like, two weeks. And they just didn't give me my diploma on graduation day. For skipping school on that day to my. My. My mom had to be escorted out. She tried to fight a cop. It was ridiculous. It was like, dude, I already got into college. Like, I don't need the high school diploma. We're good. But my mom, she just saw that as an opportunity to crash out with reason. And, yeah, she tried to fight a cop. He's like. He was like 6, 7, and my mom is, like 5ft tall. It was the most ridiculous thing in the world. It was crazy. Yeah. At one point, he picked her up. Like, he pushed her elbows into her side, and he picked her up and he looked at me and was like. Like, sydney, are you going to do something about your mom? It's just like. Yeah, it was pretty crazy.

[Zach Amico]

You realize we've been talking about misbehaving at graduations for 10 minutes for you to say, my mom tried to fight a cop at mine.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Listen, you can't tell from my presentation, but I come from an orthodox black family.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

And, like, every opportunity. So my mom. There was two. Two times that year that my mom tried to fight somebody at that school.

[Brett Raybould]

What was the other two times?

[Sydney Gantt]

So for my graduation project, I had a black teacher, Mrs. Muzan. And I'll say her name because she's a terrible person. Her son Ended up going to the NBA.

[Zach Amico]

Wow.

[Sydney Gantt]

Damn. What was. He played for the Knicks for a while. I'm sorry, his name is, he's good, by the way. But anyway, she was my graduation advisor from a graduation project. It was a talent show and we had all the people rehearsing for the talent show. And it was about two weeks from that. We sold tickets to it. It was a big deal. And we rented out the middle school auditorium. And then two weeks before the performance, she decided that she wanted all the white people off the show and she wanted to make it just a hip hop show. So at that time, we only had one rap group. We had one step dance group, but then we had magicians, we had acoustics, we had all these other like nine other performances that weren't black people. And she decided at the last minute she wanted to make it just a hip hop show. It was just like, there's no way we can do this. And I said no. She's like six.

[Brett Raybould]

You're like just from a run of show perspective, dude. It's not even a race thing.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude. How could you do this to a producer last minute?

[Brett Raybould]

I don't, I don't got the time. I can't fill an hour, dude.

[Sydney Gantt]

It was crazy, right? And this is going to be my first ever standup performance. I was going to host and do stand up.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, wow.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. This is like a big deal for me, man. This is like the biggest deal. And then I told her no. And so this, this was a six foot one black woman. And she goes, did you just tell me no? And I was like, yeah, we're not doing that. That this is crazy. People rehearse, people prepared, people sold tickets to family members. We're not doing that. And she goes, I'm gonna make your life a living hell. To which I ignored because I don't respect anything that comes out of a woman's mouth. But she did, she like, she like petitioned for me to get.

[Brett Raybould]

Wait, that was the reason do you ignored it?

[Sydney Gantt]

Yes, yes.

[Brett Raybould]

I was like, you could do respect

[Sydney Gantt]

the things that come out of women's mouths at the.

[Brett Raybould]

Not to sound like a loser. I, I, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, you are in your 30s. That's gay. Dude, what is wrong with you?

[Brett Raybould]

What is this?

[Zach Amico]

Give it a few years.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, sure.

[Brett Raybould]

I need a thicker mustache. I'll try and get a thicker mustache.

[Sydney Gantt]

Thank you.

[Brett Raybould]

Okay, so you didn't. But go back to.

[Sydney Gantt]

So then she started petitioning to the school to not only drop me as her being my advisor, but for me to get A zero for my project, even though we did all the work. So I had to, like, get involved with the principal. My mom ended up coming to the school, but before that, I went to her classroom and I said to her, I was like, listen, this is a ridiculous thing you're doing. I think you're being really immature about this. And I probably didn't use the right language to adult. Dude. She flipped out on me. So much so that, like, she was, like, towering over me, screaming at me. I backed up into the hallway so that there were witnesses to it, Dude. Once we got into the hallway and she realized that I did that for the purpose of there being witnesses, she lost her fucking mind. The most racist shit that has ever been said to me was that woman in that hallway that day. And Mr. West, who was a teacher that was across the hall, he was also a cop and also, like, did judo. He was like my judo instructor when I was a little kid. Dude, he just stood out there and just witnessed the whole entire thing. I could feel him behind me, like. Like, just, like, reacting to all this. She was saying, long story short, that all comes to a head now. We're in the principal's office, and the teacher, me, my mom, the principal, the principal says to Mr. Muzan, he goes, very simply, listen, what you did was out of hand. All you have to do to make this go away is apologize. Because they asked me ahead of time, would an apology be good enough to make this go away? So I said, yes. So in the office, they go, all you have to do to make this go away is apologize. And she said, hell, no. Do. I never respected a person more. That was the gangster that I've ever seen in my life. So much so that my mom, who came there to fight, by the way, when she was like, hell, no. My mom was like, okay, let's go.

[Brett Raybould]

A bell immediately rings.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. So she ended up getting fired. Like, wow. She got fired in front of me and my mom. And.

[Brett Raybould]

And she was. The teacher was black. The sexual one?

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

And she was the one who said the most racist to you ever, dude.

[Sydney Gantt]

She.

[Brett Raybould]

We gotta top that.

[Sydney Gantt]

What?

[Brett Raybould]

Can we.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, I mean, go for it. I. I guarantee you you won't be able to, because she was trying to make it hurt.

[Brett Raybould]

Well, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. She was like, really? Like. She was, like, talking about my family. It was crazy. It was absolutely crazy. She called me.

[Zach Amico]

She.

[Sydney Gantt]

She. She basically called me a genetic N word. Like that. Like, you're. Because of who you are, where you're from, who your family. Is you'll never be anything more than an N word. Uh huh. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. You come from. You gonna be. The only thing you gonna be is her.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. And listen, I dude it. I am so glad that after that like I got my. Like I. I really pulled everything together, started really focusing and I proved her right over the next 20 years of my life.

[Brett Raybould]

She's now a Patreon subscriber to World War. Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

Absolutely.

[Brett Raybould]

Highest tier. Highest tier. Wow. So that's fight number two for your mom and administrators at your school that year.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah. She also in middle school, she had a little dust up with a middle school teacher.

[Brett Raybould]

That's even better.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah. My mom is an interesting little lady.

[Brett Raybould]

That sounds like she has your back though.

[Sydney Gantt]

She did.

[Zach Amico]

I think she also just wanted to fight.

[Sydney Gantt]

Cam Reddish is her son. Played for the New York Knicks. The man, by the way, he's. He's good. He's the man.

[Brett Raybould]

It's very funny your Nick fandom coming into com combat with like it was cool.

[Sydney Gantt]

I felt like I had a personal attachment to him. You know what I mean?

[Brett Raybould]

You should go to a game. I wish you had heckled him, but your mom's sucks. You're a good player though.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah? Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

You're cool. You turned out.

[Zach Amico]

I told you. She told him when he was a kid. You're always going to be a Knick. Where you're from. You're a Nick. The best you'll ever be is a Nick.

[Sydney Gantt]

Made me a Knicks fan for life.

This should be an.

[Brett Raybould]

Wait, I didn't tell you. My graduation.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, my God. Please.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, it went off without a hitch. What's that?

[Zach Amico]

Okay, great.

[Brett Raybould]

Had to pause the show for that.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

I got a diploma when I went to college. Okay.

[Sydney Gantt]

And all the school rejoiced.

[Zach Amico]

All right, well, I think this is obviously a great transition. I have been fascinated with the Kool Aid. Pineapple jars. I don't know if this is in your algorithm.

[Brett Raybould]

No, it's not.

[Zach Amico]

Shannon, before I send it to you, has this been in your algorithm? No.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

I had to actually look up what it was. I didn't even know what it was before.

[Zach Amico]

So my algorithm is filled with this. Now, some sites, and not racist sites, some African American sites, have been referring to them as N word jars. And it is pineapple and syrup. Big pineapple slices in maple syrup. No, no. And like, the. The syrup you would get when you, like, buy pineapple.

[Brett Raybould]

Got it. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Pineapple slices.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And people are adding multiple packs of Kool Aid and a bag of sugar and selling them. And there's lots of reaction videos. Big hit. And the jar of pineapples. And listen, I know I am a man of size. I know I'm a man who enjoys a sweet treat when I say these look delicious. They do. But I know I cannot go near the A. No, I'm not going to buy one.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And I'm not making it at home because it's gonna be too telling.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah. Once you pop, you can't stop.

[Zach Amico]

It has the amount of sugar as 20 to 35 Krispy Kremes.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, my God.

[Zach Amico]

Or I believe what I saw was 30 cans of Coke in one sitting.

[Brett Raybould]

Beverage.

[Sydney Gantt]

Outrageous. Shannon, it looks the best.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. I mean, dude, you cannot pretend for a second that this does not look delicious.

[Sydney Gantt]

I gotta say, it looks like the best idea ever.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's wild.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

I. I know it's bad, though.

[Brett Raybould]

Of course. I think the. The pineapple juice. The pineapple juice syrup is like. I love that. That shit is always so good.

[Zach Amico]

So here's how I will start. Pineapple is already so goddamn sweet.

[Sydney Gantt]

I know.

[Brett Raybould]

So good.

[Sydney Gantt]

The sweetest of the fruit.

[Zach Amico]

Top tier fruit sweet. That and kiwi, I would say.

[Sydney Gantt]

Okay.

[Zach Amico]

Now, I sure my diet is not phenomenal. I will say. I do not like apples. I know. How do they roast me?

[Sydney Gantt]

Hahaha.

[Zach Amico]

For some reason, anything, apples, pears, anything with skin like that, I get an alert. My teeth get itchy.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

I don't get a piece. Some people in my family all get it. I don't like apples. I don't like melon. Don't like. I think watermelon tastes like nothing.

[Sydney Gantt]

Mm.

[Zach Amico]

So it tastes like just water. Like I'm chewing nothing.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Love pineapple. Love grapes. Love kiwi. These look so goddamn fucking good.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Because if I had to pick a favorite fruit flavor, it is sour apple, green or blue. And they have their. You have some options here, Shannon. Start us out with an easy one.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh.

[Brett Raybould]

You put it at a big ass

[Sydney Gantt]

dude and they let it.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

Reactions. That's what you want to see, right?

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Or we can do a rat. We watch somebody making it too.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

Okay. Wait.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Because it's not. They don't just put it. They let it. It soaks for days.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

There's work into this. They have to have like a first in, last out system so that they're like moving the jars appropriately.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Business class, my friends. Fifo.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

First in first.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Somebody's got a degree in economics. Let's go.

[Zach Amico]

In college, me and my friends would do that with bum bottles of vodka.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And we would put hot Thai chilies and garlic in it to make spicy bloody Marys.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And I had a few friends that made different diffused vodkas. But this, this is work.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

Okay. This one, I have these three obnoxious children making it. So we can show you this one

[Zach Amico]

in the blue Kool Aid, bro.

[Brett Raybould]

They said the first step, open it up and pour out the juice. I love that they go get rid of the fruit.

[Zach Amico]

It was easy.

[Brett Raybould]

Come to Florida.

[Zach Amico]

I'm coming tomorrow.

[Brett Raybould]

We're going to Florida.

[Zach Amico]

I did not want to watch broccoli heads make this.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Because like, people are going around selling this for like huge profits. It's a crazy business model for one glass. I don't know, to $25 or something like per jar.

[Zach Amico]

Try it anyways, bro.

[Brett Raybould]

All right, here, this one smells bad.

[Zach Amico]

All right. Every says a pour of sugar in, so pour a little bit of sugar in it.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh God. Oh my God.

[Zach Amico]

Oh my God. Dude. I'm kind of scared. Wait, guys.

[Brett Raybould]

Is the mic quality good or not?

[Sydney Gantt]

Guys, that is not an adequate amount of sugar for.

[Zach Amico]

This is not the amount of sugar that no. The brothers are putting than it even

[Sydney Gantt]

regular black Kool Aid gets way more sugar than that

[Brett Raybould]

regular black Kool Aid. You do Kool Aid and then you add sugar.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, like a bag.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, at least like a couple cup. It's like too much.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah, man, if whitewashing's gone too far. Even for the Kool Aid.

[Zach Amico]

Can we get black people making this, please?

[Brett Raybould]

Even for the Kool Aid beverage. It's kids I grew up with in my neighborhood.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, can we please. Can we get a more accurate.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, like.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah, we do need a representation, for sure.

[Sydney Gantt]

Black instructional, where we hear, like, jangling of jewelry over to talking, and every time we get a step, we go.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, you know, like, I get us unnecessary tongue stuff.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, thank you.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

I'm sorry. I was looking for white people because you asked me specifically for.

[Zach Amico]

No problem.

[Brett Raybould]

No, I'm kidding. I'm.

[Sydney Gantt]

I. Oh, what was the certain thing that made you go to white people?

[Zach Amico]

Oh, I. There are a bunch of wiggers trying it.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, those were not even full wiggers yet.

[Zach Amico]

No, I'm talking.

[Brett Raybould]

They were like chicks. The squirtle version of girls with their

[Zach Amico]

cell phone in their waistband of their pajama pants.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah. Don't give me some non blastoid wiggers.

[Brett Raybould]

We want the furthest Evolution. Okay, here we go.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

Side sport. I can't see myself spending $20 for no damn Kool Aid Pineapples. Well, maybe because I'd be spending money on crazy food all the time, but I've been seeing a whole bunch of recipes for it. I've been seeing people sell them. I got everything we need to make them.

[Zach Amico]

Bye.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

And that's what we're about to do. Let's get it. So most people are getting the 46 or 48 ounces from Sam's. I have the 35 ounce from Kroger's.

[Zach Amico]

Stop.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

Stop saying Kroger's.

[Brett Raybould]

It's Kroger.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

We need to open it up. Pour your juice out into a cup. Normally they add the whole pack of Kool Aid. By the way, I have the blue raspberry lemonade. We know it ain't lemonade, but they do the whole pack. Since I have a smaller jar, just a little bit smaller, I might not use the. We're going to use a whole pack. I wasn't going to use it, but we're going to use it. Have y' all seen the prices of Kool Aid real quick? Two for a freaking dollar.

[Zach Amico]

That's great.

[Sydney Gantt]

When I was growing up, it was

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

10, 15 for a dollar.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

Add it to your pineapple juice. Boom. Oh, look at that.

[Zach Amico]

Look at that baby.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

That koolaid strong. It smell good, too. Let's see if we need sugar. Yeah, no, that's why they added sugar. So I got a fourth cup of sugar in some hot water, and I'm gonna add a little bit to the Kool Aid at a time and try to get this.

[Zach Amico]

That's literally pineapple syrup with Kool Aid in it.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

Do what you want.

[Brett Raybould]

What is this? Toast without butter?

[Zach Amico]

Glass? What is this, Poland Spring?

[Brett Raybould]

There we go.

[Zach Amico]

There we go.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

We're just going to do you like that. Let's pour it in. Please don't make a mess. Oh, I hate this when it just drizzles down the side.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, you pour it in to let it soak.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yes.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. And then you soak it for days.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh,

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

there's still some in the pack. You can.

[Brett Raybould]

That poor pineapple.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

Well, Ice Cube say shake them up. Shake them up.

[Zach Amico]

Shake them up.

[Sydney Gantt]

Shake them.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

I'm sure you got to let this sit in the refrigerator a couple hours at least a day, but we gonna

[Zach Amico]

try it right now.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

I know it's not gonna be as full.

[Zach Amico]

All right, so let's. Let's see some. Some hood. React. Some. Some. I saw a couple girls that really.

[Sydney Gantt]

The.

[Zach Amico]

When they open up their mouth.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

That. It is not words.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. And can I. Can I, like, asterisk this real quick, please? When black people like Kroger's. When they add the S. Yeah, like for the. It is not plural. It's possessive. It's a possessive S, not a plural

[Zach Amico]

S. I totally get it.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Every. I grew up, every black guy called me Zach amicos.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. You're your dad's kid.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

You. You're possessed.

[Zach Amico]

Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, that's.

[Brett Raybould]

I thought that was like an old. That was like a dad thing. Is you just plural. Well, it's not a posture, but you just pluralize everything. My dad calls every band, he pluralizes the name.

[Sydney Gantt]

So like the Beatles.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah, like the Beatles is our Arcade Fire. He's like, oh, the Arcade Fire. The Modest Mouse. He'd go, oh, the mice. Like, it's like a dad thing to just pluralize.

[Zach Amico]

I know it shit's talking about that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, I saw this guy the other day. Oh, that bit tough. That big ass.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Appreciate you, buddy. Yes, sir. They don't gentrified the dad down. Kool Aid pineapples, man. That was a blast. Doing better, by the way.

[Zach Amico]

Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

That was a blastoid wicker. That was a full wicker. Yes.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

All down to the nice house behind him.

[Sydney Gantt]

That bit. That big guy.

[Zach Amico]

Great. Do we have any women?

[Brett Raybould]

What is that? That big?

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

What is that?

[Sydney Gantt]

That good?

[Zach Amico]

I believe so.

[Sydney Gantt]

And that here's one was the first one. Got it.

[Zach Amico]

Juice tastes good. Got another one, man.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's a new flavor, y'.

[Zach Amico]

All. The double pineapple with lemonade mixed in that.

[Sydney Gantt]

That looked good. That looks good.

[Zach Amico]

Pineapple on the pineapple. That good as thought,

[Sydney Gantt]

yo, that might. That might pull me in. That. The double pineapple.

[Zach Amico]

The void. The. The. That good.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Here we go. This the cotton candy.

[Brett Raybould]

Get that woman on the label stack for sure. Get her a sponsorship.

[Sydney Gantt]

That. That is Aunt Jemima.

[Brett Raybould]

I know.

[Zach Amico]

That woman needs the pin. Pickles.

[Sydney Gantt]

That is a brand ambassador for sure.

[Brett Raybould]

For real.

[Zach Amico]

She's in the Tampa Bay area.

[Brett Raybould]

If the face of this doesn't lack teeth, I'm not buying it. Oh, my God, I feel so bad.

[Zach Amico]

His barbecue.

[Sydney Gantt]

I dogged it.

[Zach Amico]

So you already know this. A 10 out of a 10.

[Sydney Gantt]

But she didn't even get to put that on camera. She couldn't even wait.

[Zach Amico]

The cotton candy pineapple. She just puts the rib in between the teeth and spins it. I love to drink the juice loose out of them, so. Oh, my Jesus.

[Sydney Gantt]

That would work, by the way.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, my God. I love that. New York one's on in the background if you have mesothelioma.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah. Gonna hear the fire alarm. All that jazz. Or the smoke detector. Whatever.

[Zach Amico]

Delicious. Oh, my Jesus. This a 10 out of 10. Out of a 10. A 10 out of a 10. Tammy. Oh, my God.

[Sydney Gantt]

They're pickling pineapples and Kool Aid. This is crazy.

[Brett Raybould]

I love America, dude.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's the best.

[Brett Raybould]

I do love America.

[Sydney Gantt]

It is the best. We.

[Brett Raybould]

We really know how.

[Zach Amico]

How long before we have blue raspberry pig's feet?

[Brett Raybould]

I love it. We American.

[Zach Amico]

We got any more, Shannon?

[Brett Raybould]

We're so good at mutating foods. Like, America likes to mutate. We don't really like. We don't really like cooking or preparing. It's like we like to flavor blast it. We, you know, we like to come up with made up words. Flavor blasting. That's not a thing.

[Zach Amico]

But it's in the 90s and 2000. It was extreme. Everything was extreme.

[Brett Raybould]

It had that X, bro. If you don't have that X, your food is.

[Sydney Gantt]

This is. I. I agree with you on the. The mutated food. I feel like this might be radioactive enough for somebody's, like, DNA. They're going to get a superpower from that. This I don't Know what it is? Maybe they'll have, like, detachable feet for, like. Like a diabetic power of some kind.

[Zach Amico]

So there is a video already of a man who got the superpower to nap indefinitely, as a jar of it did put him in a diabetic coma.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, he's unshakable.

[Zach Amico]

Shannon, if you want to look that up. Next.

[Brett Raybould]

But a man. He down with a whole jar in a sitting.

[Zach Amico]

It would appear so. And his sister's trying to raise money and tell people to beware the Kool Aid pineapple.

[Brett Raybould]

Right now Washington's gonna. It's like the four loco thing that Washington's gonna regulate.

[Zach Amico]

That's what they need. They're gonna lose. They need.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Some Everclear. And we need to jungle juice these up.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, my God.

[Sydney Gantt]

Well, maybe not jungle juice, but. Yeah, this is.

[Zach Amico]

Hey, that's what it's called. That's what it's called.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's what it's called.

[Brett Raybould]

That what?

[Zach Amico]

Call.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I ever tell you how my sister gave herself a diabetic coma?

[Zach Amico]

Please.

[Sydney Gantt]

Turkey Hill iced teas. About a delicious coma six summers ago. Peach Turkey Hill iced tea. My sister drank only that for a summer.

[Brett Raybould]

No water.

[Sydney Gantt]

I think it was like a couple weeks. No water. She drank only that. And then, of course, it's making her hyper thirsty. So she was only drinking more Turkey Hill peach teas.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, yeah. Because it, like, it doesn't actually hydrate you. It sucks all the.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Water out of your kidney or liver or whatever the it is. I don't know. I'm not a scientist.

[Sydney Gantt]

All of it sucks it out of all the vitals. And, dude, I remember, like, my mom called me from the hospital to, like, you know, I have some news. Don't worry. The doctors are hand. Like all the preface. And she told me that my sister was in a diabetic coma. It was like, what. Like, how did she get. What did she do to get into a diabetic coma? And it was. My mom says, I think she had a couple Turkey Hill iced teaspoon. So I have to wait for my sister to come out of the coma to explain it to me. Dude, she only drank Turkey Hill peach tea for, like, three straight weeks. And she was just having her kids just run into the store getting her Turkey Hill peach teas. And it was just like, why did you do that?

[Zach Amico]

Right?

[Brett Raybould]

What'd she say? They're good.

[Sydney Gantt]

It's good. And I was thirsty.

[Brett Raybould]

Wrong.

[Zach Amico]

I will tell you. The Turkey Hill Arnold Palmers, they're. They're Pretty goddamn good.

[Brett Raybould]

They're good.

[Sydney Gantt]

I've had all of the Turkey Hill teas are great world.

[Zach Amico]

They're great.

[Sydney Gantt]

They're out of this world. They're made. They're made black style. There's so much sugar in them.

[Zach Amico]

Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

You know, this just is candy juice. And my sister almost. She's not even. She's not even fat. She just, like, one summer, she was like, you know what? Water's whack. And I'm just only going, peach Turkey Hill iced tea, like I wanted to do when I was a kid and nobody let me. Right now, I'm an adult. I'm in control of my life. It's only Turkey Hill peach tea.

[Brett Raybould]

I love it.

[Zach Amico]

It, man.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

I.

[Brett Raybould]

This segment, honestly, just what I feel like my. A couple mers are loose in the. My teeth. Like, I feel like just from watching

[Zach Amico]

this, I'm like, let's watch this next one. We had up Shannon.

[Brett Raybould]

Like, I. I'm gonna drink some water just to.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, I done got my hands on him. I done got my hands on him. The vibr. This guy got ripped off. Pineapples.

[Brett Raybould]

That's the type of white person that bought an ounce for 500 bucks.

[Zach Amico]

Don't sleep on the grape. I said, okay, I don't really like grape, but. But you're a black man telling me to buy something. I'll be bullied into this quickly.

[Brett Raybould]

50 bucks a jar. I reached out to the guy.

[Zach Amico]

He delivered them to us. So shout out my guy. I mean, I love the entrepreneurial spirit that they are. Sitting on these for a couple days and then going out and making deliveries or setting up shop. That's America. I think you should be able to sell these out of the back of your truck. And if people pay for them, that's America, and that's fucking commerce.

[Brett Raybould]

I agree. That's commerce.

[Zach Amico]

If a man's trying to make a buck and bring it home to his family, I don't give a fucking shit.

[Sydney Gantt]

And then you get to, like, have that one special moment where you finally get your jar that you just bought, and you open it up and you hear that pop. And then the black and mild smoke comes out of it, and you're like, it's time to go. Let's go.

[Zach Amico]

I would never tell it. Like, I hate when they shut down. Like, Mexicans selling food on the side of the road. So I was like, yeah, let a

[Sydney Gantt]

man or let them do it.

[Zach Amico]

Make them. Let them make a buck, dude.

[Sydney Gantt]

Dude, let the market decide.

[Brett Raybould]

It's. It's to shut down Those people.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah. If it sucks, people won't buy it.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And by the way, it's a health code thing. Buyer beware. You know what the fuck you bought? You didn't think they had a fucking health code. You thing.

[Brett Raybould]

You talk about the snap. It can't snap because it's already been opened. The pineapple jar has already been opened.

[Sydney Gantt]

And I thought about how funny it would be if they open up the jar and it was like, chirp. Like just fire detectors.

[Zach Amico]

Let's continue to see this Poor.

[Brett Raybould]

The record scratcher.

[Zach Amico]

That sort of. Why would you throw it?

[Brett Raybould]

That was a waste of. That was a 40 pineapple.

[Sydney Gantt]

I mean, if his mom was there, he would have smacked her. It was so good. Make you want to smack your mama. But he didn't have a mom there to smack.

[Zach Amico]

I love that he had to pretend like the jar was hard to open. Yeah, I just had to do that. That was fire. Okay, this is watermelon, bro.

[Brett Raybould]

That does a lot.

[Jar Pineapple Reviewer]

Don't do it.

[Zach Amico]

Don't you get red on my mama, Yo.

[Sydney Gantt]

He does look like a relative of Drew Montana, though.

[Brett Raybould]

He said this one's the most, but he said this is his favorite.

[Zach Amico]

Let's see. God damn, that looks like charcoal. I don't know. I don't know. Let's see.

[Brett Raybould]

He's gonna react positively. Here we go. This is the best one. Get out of here, bro.

[Zach Amico]

I swear, I don't even like grape this.

[Brett Raybould]

Oh, you know I don't like grape either.

[Zach Amico]

You know that about me. I told you. I told you in confidentiality.

[Brett Raybould]

It's funny. Is not grape.

[Zach Amico]

Everybody know. I don't with. Great.

[Brett Raybould]

Great.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yo, on my mama. I don't with great, though.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, God. Oh, God. So I don't fuck with no grade. All right, Chad, do we have the guy in the coma?

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

I tried to find it. It says there are no confirmed reports of that.

[Zach Amico]

Do you have any more white women trying it?

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

Let me just see the other ones. I think have, like, one more. I don't. I don't know if it's a white woman. No, I have a black couple.

[Zach Amico]

Let's do that and we'll get out on that. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

By the way, Boo is the name of the character on your shirt, right? What is the name of your character on your shirt? His name is Boo, right?

[Zach Amico]

No, this is my chain. Is.

[Sydney Gantt]

Oh, okay.

[Zach Amico]

This is. I think a shy guy got.

[Sydney Gantt]

Shy guy.

[Brett Raybould]

Shy guy. Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

At least it's a real time pineapple that they had to cut.

[Zach Amico]

I like this.

[Sydney Gantt]

I like this. This is a health conscious version.

[Zach Amico]

Mine is blue raspberry. How spongebob gonna live in that now? Sm we put your ass in kool Aid.

[Sydney Gantt]

She's so greedy. Swinging. Yeah. So the real connoiss tell you you got to sip the juice first.

[Zach Amico]

Yes.

[Sydney Gantt]

Before you bite into the pine.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah. Everything has its own.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. You know, it's like a wine t of.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

The Somalians were.

[Sydney Gantt]

Wait, wait, the Somalians?

[Zach Amico]

Yes. I. This is going to sound a little fucked up, but this is definitely. Somebody got all this on their commissary list and came up.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Came up with a business plan for when they got out. Am I crazy?

[Sydney Gantt]

I would. I would imagine that it started in prison. Dude. They. That's what.

[Zach Amico]

I crushed it in prison.

[Sydney Gantt]

They are so in jeans.

[Zach Amico]

I think are all things you could get probably.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And they were 100%. I think somebody was fucking around either selling them in prison went, listen, when I get out, I'm going legit.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah. Maybe not the jar of pineapple. You can't have prisoners in jail with jars and shit.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

But everything else is on the list.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, yeah, I'm sure there was maybe like pickles in a bag. Pineapple slices in a bag. And they did that. And they like put it. Wrapped it up, put it under the bed for a few days.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah, you're totally right. Yeah. I had a friend who spent like 20, 25 years in prison and he had all these. All the prison commissary mix ups for what their delicacies were.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah.

[Brett Raybould]

Like that sounds.

[Sydney Gantt]

He's an iron shackle chef.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Watching them make the little deep fryers where they'll take wires. They'll put. They'll take a tin like a coffee can.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

And then make a sterno. They'll take apart like a shaver.

[Brett Raybould]

Wow.

[Zach Amico]

And heat the oil and they'll. They'll be making like empanadas and they'll make like 200 and they're selling them.

[Brett Raybould]

Dude. I had a friend, this. This fella, he. He was like one of the kingpins of the yard because he would get befriend women on Facebook and then they would send him either money or cigarettes. And then he would turn around and resell all these cigarettes. And he had a bunch of ambassadors to sell the cigarettes. He was at the top. And he would say he. He let profit happen for his sellers more than himself as protection.

[Sydney Gantt]

I like that you call them ambassadors

[Brett Raybould]

instead of brand ambassadors. Brand ambassadors.

[Sydney Gantt]

Short skirts. Try a cigarette.

[Zach Amico]

All right, Chad, do we want to finish watching Them eat that. Are we done?

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

You can finish it.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, let's finish it.

[Shannon (Producer/Researcher)]

This guy also missing an eye.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, good.

[Sydney Gantt]

Did y' all hear him over there?

[Interviewee (Tyveon Campbell)]

Yo, I just came from the gym

[Zach Amico]

and straight in here to birthday pineapples.

[Sydney Gantt]

It was a. It was a BLM protest at the gym. She wasn't working out.

[Zach Amico]

What the is up? What the is up?

[Sydney Gantt]

You're now rocking with your mother. I just ate pineapples with some Kool Aid. Now I'm gonna go to bed and get laid. Yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Oh, my God. Still ring first rain first. Mine's upstairs.

[Brett Raybould]

Yeah.

[Sydney Gantt]

When he hits his wife from the back. They call it pirate booty. No big deal. What I guy.

[Brett Raybould]

I like the natural pineapple, though. I do like that. We wanted to try like that. That looks more.

[Zach Amico]

That's sliced up.

[Sydney Gantt]

It also looks cool.

[Zach Amico]

Yeah, that would be cool to serve.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Zach Amico]

Let it sit longer.

[Sydney Gantt]

That's like a culinary masterpiece. The other is just some ratchet. Take a bit piece.

[Zach Amico]

They have to feed each other because he has bad depth perception. He keeps missing. The red is hitting. I read who it is, but, you know, I put.

[Sydney Gantt]

Yeah, Kool Aid. Pineapple is definitely going to be in
