And I'm Sophia. Welcome to the Nightly from Hatch, a slumber party for pop culture lovers. Tonight we actually have our own little slumber party, which is epic because we're joined by the hilarious Josh Eckert, who is also the voice behind Hatch's crispy morning alarm. So welcome, Josh. Hello.

[A]

What is up, dude? First time guests. It's nice to be here.

[C]

Oh, my God.

[A]

Really? Wow.

[B]

A rare breed.

[A]

I know, dude.

[C]

Okay. For a while, I felt like I become more of a morning person by force. And I've really slipped back into my old ways.

[B]

To thine own self be true. And I am a night owl. We just can't force it.

[A]

I'm like a mix, dude. I'll, like, I get pretty tired pretty quick, but then I'll just fight it.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Like, I want to stay up late. And then I go on so many snowboard trips and I'm like the media guy. So I'm like, I'm up late editing and then I'm up before all the riders. Before, like, I'm up this morning. I got up at like 6:45 or something just because I was like, I gotta get him and get stuff done. Yeah.

[B]

Well, this brings us to our question, which is we like to ask about, like, what is your bedtime routine usually? What does your sleep hygiene look like?

[A]

Oh, dude. All right. So like, my fiance, I like to call her my hottest homie because she's my best friend and she's the hottest person on the planet. And our little. Yeah, dude, she's the sickest. Like, I hope she's listening because she rules. But our dog will just bust a chill on the couch and be watching something. And like, we'll usually do like, this. There's this, like, blue stuff that you put in water. Magnesium or something like that.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[A]

We'll drink some of that and it tastes really good. Or maybe we'll do a little sleepy tea. And I'm like a little kid. Like, I'll just fight going to bed the whole time. Like, I'll be. We'll be watching something and I'll be falling asleep and she'll be like, all right, let's go up and like. No, no, no, I'm good, I'm good. I'm good. Like, classic, dude. Like, that's just what we do. We're not sleeping ever, you know, so then I'll. I'll finally cave and we'll go up to bed and we'll do the, you know, brushing the teeth as. As your dentist recommends every night, you know. And then I used to just use water to wash my face, you know.

[B]

Oh, sure.

[A]

Classic dude. But now that I live with my wife to be. She's trying to take care of my skin and stuff. And so she'll like, she'll hook it up with some crazy, like, face stuff serums and whatnot. She put some crazy stuff on my face.

[C]

She hooked it up with some crazy face wash. You're like a gentle cleanser.

[A]

Yeah. It's probably the most basic level stuff. And I'm just like, mind blown, dude. What is this soap, you know?

[C]

Oh, my God, it foams up. What the hell?

[A]

There's balls. I'm scared. It's insane, dude. She'll put like lotion on my face and stuff because I'm always just like either, you know, like surfing or skating or like up on a mountain and just getting. My face is just getting torched.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

Because I just forget to put on sunscreen and so I come back and she'll just take care.

[C]

That's amazing.

[A]

She's so dialed. She's the best thing ever happened to me.

[C]

What's her name?

[A]

Rachel, period. Shout out Rachel Shout out Rachel the hottest homie.

[B]

I'm honestly, I don't wash my face at night and I know I need to, so I need my Rachel. I really gotta get a hot.

[A]

Get yourself a Rachel.

[B]

I really need one. I just, I resisted it for a while because I was like, I think they're just trying to sell me a million serums, you know. I just felt like there was definitely thing every week that I had to have and I was like, well, I'm just not going to play that game.

[A]

Right.

[B]

But it's not a game. It actually does really work.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah. Unfortunately, they're really onto something also, if.

[C]

You like aren't having trouble with your skin, I'm kind of like, whatever.

[B]

That's what I'm sort of feeling is like, I don't really break out crazy style. My. Yeah. So I'm blessed in that way. And I don't want to Mess it up.

[C]

I'm definitely washing morning and night, and I definitely have a lot of, like, weird things I'm putting on my face.

[A]

Like what, dude?

[C]

I'm getting. It's like, prescriptions from. Yeah, the dermatologist. So I'm doing. In the morning, I'm doing benzoyl peroxide and this thing called Win Levy, which is like a topical hormonal acne shout out to my hormonal acne heads.

[A]

Right on.

[C]

And then I'm, of course, doing a moisturizer and. And sunscreen. And then at night, I'm doing a moisturizer, and I'm doing tretinoin. And that's kind of my. That's my thing.

[A]

That's science, dude.

[C]

I know. But I. This is more recent. I had to, like, go to the dermatologist a couple months ago. But it's so nice to go. I find skincare so overwhelming that it's so nice to go to the dermatologist and have them just tell you exactly what to use. Because, like, kind of what you were saying, kp, like, looking it up and trying to find it out on my.

[B]

Own, I'm like, bro, everybody's selling something. The craziest one that does work for me, I must say, is snail mucin, bro.

[A]

Rach pulled me on my face one time. I was like, not having it, bro. I took it off so quick.

[B]

The snail mucin is crazy on theory.

[C]

That makes you glow.

[B]

It really does make you glow.

[C]

I've been in a place of snail mucin before, but what is it?

[B]

I think it's snail mucin.

[A]

It's like the slime from snails.

[B]

I think we're milking snails. I think we're, like, lining them up and we're milking them.

[A]

We're milking snails.

[B]

So I feel like, contextually, I know what mucin is. Just from the sound of it. It's something like goopy. It's the snail's goop.

[A]

You're stand. Goops and slimes.

[B]

Yeah, goops and slimes.

[C]

No, people swear by the stuff.

[B]

It's. It does work. Well, we've snoozed snail mucin for now.

[C]

Yeah. Well, you chose it.

[B]

I think I'm choosing absolutely, But I didn't like the public opinion, so I'm snoozing it right now. So we're going to go into our next game here, which is called Snooze or Choose. We're going to talk about some weird, weird, cool, wild things in culture, in fashion, in whatever we feel like. I've Decided to pick some, and I'm gonna see if you guys snooze or choose.

[A]

And what is snooze? Meaning, like, I'm into it or I'm not into it.

[B]

Snooze is like, we're just not doing that right now. We're snoozing it. Choose is. Yeah. Okay, I'll choose that. I like that.

[A]

Okay, I'm down.

[B]

Everyone is bringing back 2016 stuff. Have you seen this? Everyone's kind of, like, resurfacing their photos from 2016. Resurfacing the vibes from 2016.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

So these are the things I remember about 2016. You tell me if they should make a comeback.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

All right, first is the Snapchat animal filters.

[A]

Snooze it, dog. I aged out of Snapchat. Too old for that, dude.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

I feel similarly, like, I definitely am not on Snapchat. And, like, if I was ever to, like, someone was to, like, find me on there, I'd say, like, please come help me. Like, something is really wrong. But what I will say about the filters is that, like, I love to be using, like, a, like, janky. I feel like kp, you might know this, like, a, like, busted filter on Instagram. They really make me laugh.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

So I love a filter, but not really a Snapchat one. I also feel like the Snapchat ones, like, aren't, like, as funny as the. I love the Instagram ones that, like, yassify you and I'm, like, mogging.

[A]

Yes, dude. The only good Snapchat filter is the Gigachad one.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Where it makes your jaw really, really, like, chiseled and one eyebrow goes up.

[C]

I need that.

[A]

That's the only reason to have Snapchat.

[B]

I agree to snooze them. I also think it is funny because I'll watch, like, a show like, you know, catfish or 90 day fiance, and they'll be like, she sends me the most amazing photos of her, and they all have, like, dog ears and tongue out. And I'm like, you don't know what.

[C]

This woman looks like. No, I.

[B]

These filters do not understand.

[C]

You don't understand what these filters are doing. Yeah, yeah.

[A]

You guys see Real Life dog. Like, there's a while where, like, if you filmed in Tick Tock, it would, like. It would, like, smooth your face out.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

I was so bummed on it because I posted one by accident and I looked like I cared about what I look like.

[C]

Yes.

[A]

Not stoked.

[B]

Yes. And then it glitches sometimes and you're like, Wait, it's making me look like a.

[A]

And you can't shut it off. If you film in Tick Tock, you can't do it.

[C]

I know. That was scaring me the other day. I also had a thing where I was like, posting. I like, posted one with that and I was like, no, I. Look, it's so crazy. It's so insane.

[B]

And the fact that it's automatically on. Give us a break.

[C]

It's more than just blurring. It's like doing so many things to your face that I was like, I look like I was not like myself.

[A]

Yeah. I'm trying to just age the way mom and age intended, dude. Like, give me the lines, give me the sunspots. I'm down.

[C]

Yes.

[B]

Yes. All right, next news or choose was this was big in 2016. Pokemon Go.

[A]

Oh, bro, I still play that. I'm on that every day, choosing choose every day for the rest of my life.

[C]

Wait, that's awesome.

[B]

You're finding new little.

[A]

Yeah, every day. I'm level 50.

[B]

Oh, my God.

[C]

You're like. And that's where you're like, have to go out in the world, right?

[A]

Yeah, dude. My street has a little pokestop at the end of it. So like, sometimes when it's firing out there and there's a bunch of them, like, I'll look at Rachel big. I gotta go. And I just walk down the street and I go. I catch them all, dude. Yeah.

[C]

That's awesome.

[B]

Yeah. So now you've been on it for a bit. Like, you're still looking for rare ones.

[A]

Day one, bro.

[C]

Oh, my God.

[A]

Never left. Yeah, I'm a huge, like, Pokemon. All that stuff. I love it.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

But you still have Pokemons that you're waiting to collect.

[A]

Yeah, they put new ones in all the time because they're, like, always making new games. Or, like, they'll put, like. They'll put, like, different colored ones in sometimes this rare, shiny, they call them. That one's dope.

[C]

That's tea. Yeah.

[B]

Okay.

[C]

I never played, but I think I would choose Pokemon Go just because it's, like, so fun. Like, I do love the element of it being like, you're getting out in the real world and. Yeah, it's, like, completely harmless and seemed, like, super fun. Except maybe, like, I'm like, I wonder, like, what, like, weird things happen from when everyone was flocking to the same places, but seems fun to me.

[B]

I also, I played it maybe that first year. It came out 2016. And it is like. Yeah, it gets you to go Outside gets you to see a new place, gets you to have goals.

[C]

I say choose helps you get your life together.

[A]

I'm glad we're aligned on that.

[B]

We're aligning. We're choosing we.

[C]

Josh, what's your favorite Pokemon?

[A]

Oh, dude, that. You can't ask a man that question. He will be here for two hours.

[C]

Can you give me, like, one that you feel fond of? We don't have to say, like, favorite. Like, we don't have to, like, play these games, but.

[A]

All right. Like, I can't. Like, it's gonna be basic, but it's like, Charizard, Dragonite. Dude. Any of the Dragon ones? Dude, I love dragons. I love all that stuff. So, like, I'll say that to the category. Any of those.

[C]

That's good. That's good enough.

[B]

We'll.

[C]

We'll leave it there.

[B]

Sophia, do you have. Do you have one that you remember that culture?

[C]

No, I'm, like, not a Pokemon head. Like, I think I was a little bit young for that. I know my siblings really liked Pokemon, but I didn't ever, like, really engage. I feel like I remember, like, Pokemon and, like, Dragon Ball Z were, like, big for my siblings, but I didn't. I didn't really, like, hit. I didn't really get into it.

[A]

Yeah, I was in that demo, dude. I was every part, like, Pokemon pack. Like, how to run it all.

[C]

Yeah. Wait, what about ukp? Do you have one?

[B]

Diglett. There's something about or that.

[A]

And no one knows what it is.

[B]

Yeah, I like that about him, but he has a nice, kind spirit, I feel. So I'm gonna say Diglett. There's something about him.

[A]

That's a good call. That's a sleeper Pokemon, I feel like.

[B]

Yeah, it's just kind of in the ground. I, like. Okay. 2016 also brought us a huge success of this band, Twenty One Pilots. We snoozing, we choose.

[A]

I don't even know who that is.

[C]

I feel like. Yeah, I feel, like, obviously amazing. I am, like, aware of 21 pilots and that. I, like, know the name. But, like, similarly, like, I don't even feel like I could make a choice because I, like, legit, have never heard any of their music.

[A]

We can't dog them like this, though. You gotta sing a song or something, dude. Maybe they're cool.

[C]

They might be. Rock and roll.

[B]

They're rock and roll.

[A]

You can sing it, though. Go ahead. Sing the. Sing the top song.

[B]

They have that song, Blurry Face. My name's Blurry Face and I care what you think.

[A]

Sorry. 21, bro, I don't know who you are.

[C]

I don't know that.

[B]

Sorry. 21.

[C]

I feel like I've never heard that in my entire life.

[B]

You're good, and I need you to know you're good. They're brothers. It's two brothers.

[C]

I definitely know, like, girls in my high school who, like, loved them.

[B]

So that was the thing, is I was teaching middle school in this year.

[C]

Okay. Okay.

[B]

And this was, like, their right. They went hard for this band.

[C]

So they're kind of like, emo, right?

[B]

They're emo.

[C]

Okay. Okay.

[B]

But you know, they're emo in a pop leaning way, of course. But look them up. All right. Sorry, 21. We're, like, so deeply.

[A]

Yeah, my bad.

[B]

Dudes sleeping on you.

[A]

Sorry about that one.

[C]

Yeah, we're snoozing you out of apathy, basically, which is, like, the worst way for it to go.

[B]

They have a lot. Well, their thing is that the drummer plays above the audience. Like, he gets, like, lifted up.

[A]

Like Spongebob in the.

[B]

Yes. Literally.

[C]

For real.

[B]

Yes.

[C]

I'm like, that's a reference I get.

[A]

Yeah. Choose Spongebob all the time.

[B]

Okay, 2016, we're going back. What about the show Fleabag?

[C]

Have you seen it, Josh? No, bro.

[A]

That's another snooze.

[C]

And this is a hard choose. You got to put that on the list.

[B]

21. You can sleep on Fleabag. You're going to have to put that on.

[C]

And I bet. I bet Rachel will.

[A]

She probably knows all this stuff, and she's probably so bummed right now. You got to understand, I'm the most, like, aloof. Dude, is that the right word? Like, I don't know a lot of what's going on.

[B]

You're tuned into your own thing. It's. You got your own freedom.

[A]

Pokemon, go.

[C]

We can't. There's too much on your plate. Like, you're running down the street. You've got things to do. You've got Pokemon to collect.

[B]

Yeah, okay. Well, Fleabag is based on a one woman theater show, and she, like, adapted it to this really, really amazing Amazon. I think it's on show. And it's like, she's British and she just. She's just so funny, like, living life, and she's messy and she just is. It's really good and dark and funn.

[C]

All right, so that's choose for me. Choosing it. I'll choose it over and over and over again.

[A]

I'll choose it too, man.

[C]

Yes.

[B]

Thank you, Josh. We need that. All right, one last Culture One. You must have at least heard of this one. This is Hamilton, the President.

[C]

No, I literally was like, he might not have heard of it.

[A]

What is that?

[B]

Hamilton the Musical.

[A]

Oh, I'm not a musical, dude. Okay, Is it like a play or a TV show?

[C]

Explain it a little bit, even though I've never seen it, because.

[A]

Is it about the president?

[C]

Yeah, so it is. Basically, Hamilton is a. And you can help me, kp, because I actually have never seen.

[B]

It.

[C]

Is a musical made. Do you know that? Do you know the name Lin Manuel Miranda? Does that ring any bells to you? Bro, don't even worry about it. He made a musical about the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

[A]

All right. Swag. That's pretty sick.

[C]

What is it about?

[B]

It's about, like, Alexander Hamilton's life and coming up and writing all the things he wrote.

[A]

Was he cool?

[B]

He was cool.

[A]

All right. Sick.

[C]

Sorry. The important part to know is that he raps a lot in it. Sorry. Yeah, so it's like Alexander Hamilton, the president, rapping. And it's also Race Blind and Sophia.

[B]

If you could give us a few bars.

[C]

I don't know any of it. I'm not throwing away my shot, is all I know. I've never seen it. I tried to watch the kind of. As a joke. I tried to watch it when it came out on, like, the tv, and my brother and I were like, oh, my God, there's, like, two hours and 40 more minutes of this left. And we, like, had to turn it off. But I respect my Hamilton heads, obviously.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I'm a snooze. That one. Based on your feedback. Dude, I don't need to see a president rapping.

[C]

I know. That's kind of how I feel, but people were moved like that. It was like a cultural phenomenon.

[A]

All right, well, my bad phenomenon is. Dude, like, I'm not about it.

[B]

No, no, don't feel bad. Okay. That is kind of basically the end of the snooze. Or two.

[A]

Yo, hit me with the last one, dude. I gotta try again.

[C]

Josh will definitely know this.

[B]

Okay. Aviator sunglasses.

[A]

Oh, I hate to admit I had a pair.

[C]

You do? Absolutely.

[A]

Yeah, me too. I'm a snooze. Those. Those belong in the past, though.

[B]

I think so, too. I mean, they're kind of. In one way, you feel like they might be timeless because they've been around since, like. Yeah, forever, but they're not. They're just not.

[C]

Yeah, I guess. I guess I'll snooze because I don't think that I can pull Them off. But I'm not closed off to the idea of someone else, like, bringing them back.

[A]

But I'm speed shades all day.

[B]

Speed shades? Yeah.

[C]

Those are sick.

[B]

Those are kind of time zones. Those are.

[A]

I can wear these anywhere.

[B]

Yes, you could. You could time travel. Put those on and everyone's like, that's a normal time to go.

[A]

That's.

[C]

Yeah, go to the past.

[A]

Or I could go to Hamilton, bro. And they'd be like, yo, that guy should be here.

[C]

No, they're like, let's get him the mix.

[B]

Yeah, yeah.

[A]

He should sign the declaration too. That'd be cool. Yeah.

[B]

Okay. That was. Those are the ones that I had. Listen, I admit that there was things that were in my orbit and we had different orbits, Josh and I like your orbit a lot.

[A]

I. Yeah, I'm in a different galaxy, dog.

[C]

I'm curious if you can. And no pressure if you don't have something on the top your mind. But like, Josh, if you have a Trend from like 2016 era that you're like, this was a huge part of your life other than Pokemon Go.

[A]

All right. This is a super snooze, dude. But I always had pretty long hair and I always tied it back in like a little bun. And the, the man bun phase, dude.

[C]

That's real.

[A]

Made me shave my head.

[C]

Yes.

[A]

I was so bummed. I had long hair for, like years before that and everyone else and had these little crazy, little top notch, sorry, bros. But then everyone started coming up to me and being like, nice man bun. And I was like, no, I just have long hair, dog. I don't want to be referred to as that.

[C]

You're like, this is utility base. This isn't like a, a static or like sartorial choice necessarily.

[A]

Yeah, sartorial, that's the word I was thinking of.

[B]

Who, like, started. Who was like the one that put it on the map. I feel like it like, came out of nowhere.

[A]

I feel like it was Jon Snow and Game of Thrones.

[B]

That's what I literally going to say. I thought it was because, like, Jason Momoa.

[C]

Oh, yeah.

[A]

Jason Momoa. Stallion. That's stallion.

[B]

Total stallion.

[A]

I'm, I'm man enough to admit that is a man right there.

[B]

Yeah. When he came on the scene, everyone was like, we just didn't know. Yeah. They're like, maybe we just didn't know you could do that.

[A]

We're the same height.

[B]

Wow. See, that's when they were confusing you for him.

[A]

Yeah. I, I, I look 6, 4. I'm 6 4, 2, 20. But I look 5, 9. It's a weird thing that happens.

[C]

The optical illusion that happens.

[A]

Yeah, yeah. I mistaken for him a lot on the street, too. Yeah.

[C]

That's why you had to stop the man.

[A]

The man button. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the Jon Snow thing, I think because he ran the, like, the half knot with the long hair, which is steezy.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

People couldn't commit to growing their hair, so then they just started doing the top bit.

[C]

It was. That was. It was a tough moment. I'll say.

[A]

Like, yeah, you can't be King of the North. Don't try, dude.

[B]

No, no. It took a special kind of person. But then, yeah, everyone was doing it. Baristas everywhere were just putting there to compel.

[C]

Well, they were like, maybe if I put my hair into a bun, then I'll look like Jason Momoa. And it's like, it's not how that works.

[A]

That probably was the goal, dude.

[C]

There's a lot of stuff that you're missing to get you there.

[B]

Okay, that is a snooze for me also. I think we can all agree that belongs where it belongs.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Okay, now, before we wrap, we snoozed and we choose all the things that we needed in this world. Is there anything, Josh, that our listeners should be checking out that you have going on?

[A]

Oh, man, dude, I don't know. I got a lot going on, man. A lot of it's for me, and I post some of it on the Internet if you want, but where can we follow you? I'm on Instagram. My handle is Gimpy, because I got. I'm all hurt all the time and I got kind of a bum leg. And then chicken Josh on TikTok, because I love Surf's Up.

[C]

Okay. Okay.

[A]

And Chicken Joe is the sickest dude on the planet.

[C]

Got it.

[B]

That is a really good one. Okay. And then we usually ask. I'm seeing what year Surf's up came out, because maybe that was 2007 way.

[A]

Oh, yeah, that's OG dog.

[C]

That's OG, obviously.

[A]

Choosing, dude. Choosing. There's like, they're remaking a show and there's a lot of people on Tick Tock trying to get me to voice Chicken Joe.

[B]

That would be really good. Okay, I'll sign the petition. I'll sign that petition.

[A]

Surf's Up. Give me a call. Yeah.

[B]

Okay. Before we turn in, Josh, we give guests the opportunity to give a special good night to anyone you think that might want a special good night tonight. It could be somebody you know. It could be a group of people. It could be whoever. Who are you giving a good night to?

[A]

Oh, dude, it's definitely Rach.

[B]

Of course.

[A]

My hottest homie.

[B]

Dude, yeah.

[A]

Yeah. You're probably laying next to me right now waiting for our dog to come up. I love you, and you're the best. And, yeah, you're just. I'm just so stoked. I'm gonna marry her, by the way, guys. So I'm juiced. That's awesome. Yeah. So good night, Rach.

[C]

Oh, good night, Rach. I'm like, good night to Rachel as well. For me. Just know that.

[B]

Good night to Rachel. Yeah.

[A]

Everyone should get their Rachel.

[C]

Yes, yes, yes.

[B]

I really need it. My skin is Rachel.

[C]

Okay. Thank you so much for that. Good night. It was amazing, and I think we're. I think we're all gonna turn in now, so.

[A]

Yeah, I'm sleepy, dudes.

[C]

Good night, Josh, and I'll talk to you soon.

[B]

Good night, Sophia. Good night, Josh.

[A]

Good night, dudes.

[B]

Sam.
