This is the Pete and Sebastian show with Pete Corieli and Sebastian Maniscalco.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Hi, Pete and Sebastian show back again. Coming at you. Did I see Jackie recently do another marathon?
Pete Corieli
Yes.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah, I Thought, I thought, I thought this was like, I'm not mad at it. I'm just, I thought this was coming to an end.
Pete Corieli
What's right? I know. Well, now she, the plan was to just kind of, Some of them are for fun, so the, the easier ones, like there's only like 10, 000 people running Cleveland. She came in second for her age group. Wow. And freaking marathon. So she's, we're only two hours away. And then she's running the New York City Marathon in September as part of some world invite. She's pretty elite runner, man, so I don't know. Yeah, same thing. There's eight majors and she did them all. And then the other day she's like, yeah, they might have the championships in Cape Town, South Africa next year. My blood, I'm not gonna lie to you. As you would say, I got, I got a little heated and I'm like, oh. And I'm like always Mr. Supportive, you know. And then I kind of just went upstairs and was doing something. She comes up and I'm like, you're gonna go Africa now? And she goes, I don't know. I mean, I don't know. It's like, I don't know what's going on. Yeah. I go, well, if you are ever start selling some jewelry, because come on, man. Freaking world traveler. And you said you were done. So anyway. But she goes, it's a long ways away and we left it there, but, you know, nothing's resolved.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Well, I was looking at, I, I, I was looking at this as like, I feel there was a retirement announcement, sort of.
Pete Corieli
I, I do too. And if we ever had the wives on the cast, that would be such a great question. I'm gonna present it to her too, because I did too. But basically what it comes down to is being on her level. She is pretty a lead runner for her age category, as I said. So she qualified to be invited to run in what's called the World Championships. And she goes, and this year it just happens to be in Cape Town as opposed to, you know, being in America. And I was like, it just seems like dangling carrots. I feel like they know the mentality and they know that you're all going to go home to your families and go, oh, yeah, but they made it. Yeah. You know, say something. It's like selling T shirts and you keep selling this, a thousand T shirts. No matter what you design, you sell it to the same T shirt junkies. Right?
Sebastian Maniscalco
So, so listen, is there like a cash prize at any of These, like, if you come in first, do you. What do you win?
Pete Corieli
I don't know. You'd have to ask a Kenyon. Come on, bro.
Sebastian Maniscalco
You said second in her age group.
Pete Corieli
I do say so. She should look into sponsorship. I tell her she should look into that. I mean, she won a Pete and Sebastian show once shirt once. Go ahead.
Sebastian Maniscalco
So where did she write at? In Japan.
Pete Corieli
I think in Berlin. Yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
There's been no uptick in the German audience.
Pete Corieli
No, no. Absolutely not. Yeah. It's. Well, I mean, come on. It's just a random shirt, but what are you gonna say?
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's a joke. It's a joke.
Pete Corieli
I know.
Sebastian Maniscalco
So listen, I want to monetize this thing. All right, I agree. This kind of leads me into, would you categorize what she's doing as a hobby?
Pete Corieli
I said, well, as much as being a committed athlete to a sport is a hobby, because you don't get paid for it. So I guess it would be considered a hobby, right? I mean, like, what if you. You love golfing and, you know, guys more so than you, obviously, that love golfing and, like, golf every day. Is that a hobby or are they playing a sport?
Sebastian Maniscalco
I would. I would classify the running being part of a pickleball tournament. Golf a hobby. Right. So this is her hobby, Running.
Pete Corieli
Right. Okay.
Sebastian Maniscalco
She's gotten so good at it. Right. When do we translate the hobby into. To your point, sponsorship? Because I feel at her age, not too many women are running at this level. So, like, how do we bring home a check from Africa, you know?
Pete Corieli
Well, it's funny you say that, because one of the things you got to do is you got to hit the social media. You got to be like, hey, guys, it's 5:00am it's freezing. I can't wait till we get out of the pen and start running. You know, that's just. She's not doing it. She's just not. Yeah. So that's just not her thing. But, yeah, you know, let's. You gotta be. You know how it is these days, man.
Sebastian Maniscalco
You gotta be just saying, I would hate to see, you know, we not capitalize on some of the accomplishments.
Pete Corieli
It's interesting you say about, you know, trying to make money off of this because. And I think you wanted to get into this. I'm not putting you on the spot. You don't have to have an answer for this. I'm gonna see you this weekend. We could talk about, too, but I think I got a legit connection. I'm sure you could get your own legit connection anyway. And half of this is just for the cast. Fun of it. They're dying to have your own. To make your own scent guy, your own cologne.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Who?
Pete Corieli
This company, It's a legit company. I have to Google it. But it's like a big dog company. A buddy of mine, lawyer, he heard the cast and he's like, my brother in law is a big dog in the perfume biz. Before wasting anyone's time, I went to him, he went to his peeps, and he said if that was something they'd be interested in making his own cologne, we would definitely be interested in trying to.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Okay, so we might have to, because I'm. I'm diving head first in this. I was a big cologne guy, but now I'm. I ordered like 13 colognes to try, and Lana don't like one of them. I. I put three colognes out at once. One day. I did one here, I did one here, and then I did one on this. So I just wanted to kind of get a right. And I walked up to Lana. She's like, what do you got on? I go, I don't get three on. So I couldn't. She couldn't tell. Like.
Pete Corieli
Like trying to listen to three albums at once, man. You gotta play one song at a time, Patrick. I don't know how much staff you have there, but. Side note, can we get a Google on famous people endorsing colognes? I just want to see who's in that world. I feel like it's not as hot, it's not as competitive as booze.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I don't. Yeah. In the past, I've known a lot of. A lot of. Okay, here we. Yeah, look. Yeah, it's flooded, bro.
Pete Corieli
It's flooded, bro.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Jeter's got his own cologne. All right.
Pete Corieli
Nothing. Any athlete. I'm out on their cologne. They're slapping on some aftershave coming out of the locker room. Any cologne that you bring into a locker room. That's not the kind of man we're hitting.
Sebastian Maniscalco
All right. Sean Combs. Diddy's got one.
Pete Corieli
That's fantastic. That's great. That's fun.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Hugh Jackman.
Pete Corieli
It's nothing guy. It's nothing. He's a dancer.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Adam Levine, Maroon 5.
Pete Corieli
I haven't heard a man's name yet, guy.
Sebastian Maniscalco
But no, you know what? Actually, the men's category is not that bad. I think I could make a splash.
Pete Corieli
Where's a man's man? Like we talked on the last cast of Tommy Lee Jones. Is there. Is there someone on there? With a leather neck.
Sebastian Maniscalco
No, no, no. No leather necks on this thing.
Pete Corieli
What about. Is there a Italian slash Andy Garcia Cluny area? Anyone like that?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Do men's. Do. Do men's. Do famous men cologne and see if we could hone in this search. By the way, I'm surprised. I'm really surprised that Patrick still using Google.
Pete Corieli
This is good.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I thought. I thought it'd be on the forefront of AI.
Pete Corieli
AI. I thought you meant, like, the only other thing other than Google you could use is DuckDuckGo, right? I don't even know, bro.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Here, we got him up. Brad Pitt for Chanel. Matthew McConaughey for Dolce. Ryan Reynolds for Hugo Boss.
Pete Corieli
All right, Reynolds is out. Don't worry about that one. McConaughey. I don't feel like he's catering to the same man as you. Pit could be a bit of a problem. Okay, that's like. I mean, if I see a pit bottle and a U bottle, I.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Wait till you see my bottle.
Pete Corieli
I. That's.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I know.
Pete Corieli
And. And, you know. You know, he's supposed to put. Now he's got a new movie coming out, you got a new special coming out. You're both continually putting out bodies of work, which is important.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I don't know.
Pete Corieli
I think you're still not catering to the same man as him.
Sebastian Maniscalco
All right, we'll maybe explore it, but this is my cologne of the week. You wear cologne? It's a gold bar.
Pete Corieli
Wow.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Million. That's what it's called. Million by Paco Rabanne Winter scent. All right. Great for date nights. It's a great date night cologne. It's got a hint of mandarin, little leather, some amber, and patchouli, which I'm not a huge fan of patchouli, but it's just got a hint of it where it's not overpowering.
Pete Corieli
And.
Sebastian Maniscalco
And a splash of grapefruit.
Pete Corieli
What's it? What's it? You need to, like, have a chart for your splashes and pinches. What's patchouli? I don't even know what patchouli is.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah, it's like. If you smell patchouli, you'll know. It's like a hippie type of scent. You find it in Portland a lot.
Pete Corieli
Walking Height street in San Fran. Is it like an incense?
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's like. It's like a woody, strong, earthy scent.
Pete Corieli
All right, now, are these things on the bottle, are you literally sniffing and just deciphering them?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Hold on. It's been used in perfumes, incense, and most recently, insect repellents. The bugs don't even like this thing.
Pete Corieli
So now, would that be. Would that be if you found out you got a cologne that had any other function other than smell? Is that a turn off from a marketing standpoint? Like, if they go, try Chanel's new 415 and it's a moisturizer, too, are you like, there were two things. I'm out.
Sebastian Maniscalco
No, I like the cologne to just be the cologne. I don't need it to be doing anything like bug repellent, moisturizing, anything like that. I just. Okay, Cologne is cologne. Okay. But, yeah, this is my new cologne of the week. Yeah, it's spring. It's not winter. I am wearing this. I put it on today even though it is a nighttime cologne. I put it on me today because I wanted to see after three hours, kind of where.
Pete Corieli
Where.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Where I'm at with it. And I have started using the Andy Garcia technique of carrying around a handkerchief with a spray of cologne or dousing it with cologne and then rubbing it on throughout the day. I will be premiering this in Vegas this weekend.
Pete Corieli
Oh, that's great. That's great. So then you must be getting handkerchiefs and good ones.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I have handkerchiefs in my closet that I wasn't using. And I go, this is a perfect time to whip out the handkerchief or the cologne application.
Pete Corieli
That's the sole purpose of this handkerchief.
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's just, no, I'm not using it as a snot rag or to wipe my oil stick in my garage. By the way, when's the last time you took your oil stick out, wiped it clean, dipped it back in? Have you done that recently?
Pete Corieli
It's been a while. I haven't done it, and I don't even think I've done it with this roux, but used to do it more often. But what did you do recently?
Sebastian Maniscalco
I thought about that. When's the last time I did it? And then I thought, when's the last time I opened up my hood? They could have sold me a car without the engine. I wouldn't have known.
Pete Corieli
I respect that, though. It's like, what am I going to lift it up? I know. That is literally the only thing I can do is check the oil and change it if I had to in a pinch. But I was gonna say with the handkerchief. I know. May this not be your thing, but, boy, that'd be a nice thing to toss out to the crowd at the end of the show. Good night, everybody. Especially if you got a monogram.
Sebastian Maniscalco
That's a nice touch.
Pete Corieli
Maybe not. Not even throw it. Find an older woman in the front row and at the ammo. Good night, everybody. Just present it.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Oh, yeah, that's nice. I might do that.
Pete Corieli
Oh, man. The Pete and Sebastian show. All right. Elvis has left the building.

This episode is brought to you by ebay. We all have that piece, the one that's so you. You've basically become known for it. And if you don't yet the fashionistas, you'll find it on ebay. That Miu Miu red leather bomber, the cousteau Barcelona cowboy top. Or that Patagonia fleece in the 2017 colorway. All these finds are all on ebay, along with millions of more main character pieces backed by authenticity guarantee. Ebay is the place for pre loved and vintage fashion. EBay. Things people love.
Pete Corieli
So these colognes, like, how do you choose them? You're out of. You go to the store and you spray them, you get them mailed and then you decide. Like when you say you got. When you get nine, you just bring them home samples.
Sebastian Maniscalco
No, I'm buying the whole bottle. I go full bore. So if I don't like this, I mean out of the 12, I've tried them all. There's not one I don't like.
Pete Corieli
What's like a really expensive cologne, right? I'm not saying good or bad. Just like, you know, the Creed.
Sebastian Maniscalco
The Creed brand is extremely expensive. Creed C R E E D. They go for about bottle this size probably goes for about 454.50.
Pete Corieli
I wonder what makes one perfume, one cologne more expensive. I feel like it's. Is it on? Smell that? I go, oh, God, they're gonna love that. 450 a bottle. Oh, it's got sweat from a fucking orangutan. It's very hard to get the sweat from the orangutan.
Sebastian Maniscalco
The Creed brand is the. Is the cologne that Sinatra wore. Can you type in Sinatra Creed? I think it's going to come up olden.
Pete Corieli
I had no idea. The same scent.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Same scent.
Pete Corieli
Eighteen like Coca Cola. You just don't change your scent. Your creed is this Creed Is this.
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's Creed Portugal. That was Frank Sinatra's cologne. The Portugal is going for 1.7 ounces, going for $345 at. At Bloomingdale. But that was his signature scent.
Pete Corieli
1.7 ounces. You're a man, you wear it five days a week. How long would that last, that bottle, if you're wearing that same one five days a week? 1.7 ounces.
Sebastian Maniscalco
What are these? 1.7. I'd say six months.
Pete Corieli
Yeah. It's crazy how long a bottle of cologne lasts, man. It's like they. I feel like they giving it away too much, man. They should give you half that much. They need you getting back in the store, buying more of it, you know?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah, I think six months is a good use. 356 month usage. Not bad.
Pete Corieli
Do most men pick a cologne and that is it? They wear that exclusively or like you seem to do it like a sweater? Like, how many colognes do you like to have in your rotation?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah, well, now I'm having more and more just because I used to have three, but now I'm having more and more because now I'm using cologne for specific events and what have you. So I will use this cologne, the Tom Ford cologne. This is my nighttime hanging around the house cologne. So this, generally speaking, I won't put this on going out. This is a home cologne for me where I do this ritual where the kids go in the shower and then I go into a steam shower. I do a lotion, full lotion, head to toe, and put this on at night. And this is what the kids smell when I tuck them in. This is what Lana smells before we go to bed. And that's what it said. What do you got up here? You're just looking up a cologne? Wow. One of these colognes, bro. It's going for 1.2 million for a bottle.
Pete Corieli
That's what the Prince of Dubai is wearing, man. That's what he's slapping on getting out of his gold bed.
Sebastian Maniscalco
What is this million? I don't have this one. The. The Robin million. I don't have it. But the. It goes for 57 grand for one of these. But a different. A different one. It's not this one, believe me. Yeah, but then they're getting into the bottle, and the real bottles, gold. We don't need any of that.
Pete Corieli
It's called Sex Panther by Odeon.
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's illegal in nine countries. Did I tell you. Did I tell you about the tip I received? No. At the show. I tell you this No, I did a charity event in Toronto two weeks ago. Who is hosting it? Will Arnett. You know him?
Pete Corieli
I know of him. I don't know.
Sebastian Maniscalco
But, yeah, he was hosting and he came backstage and he's like, somebody just gave me a gold coin, one ounce of gold. I go, oh, wow, that's. Yeah, just gave it to me. And it comes in like a little card and encased, you know, it's not. You can't feel it. It's in a little card encased. I said, oh, that's nice. I get up on stage, I go, a lot of money in the room. I just heard Will got tipped in gold. Guy stood up. Guy stood up, gave me a coin, an ounce of gold. How much you think. How much you think an ounce of gold is in cash? $750, $3,300. Wow. No. What.
Pete Corieli
What you take?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Because this is next level, what you take. I'm dipping gold coins.
Pete Corieli
Oh, man. I'm phenomenal, man. I mean, it's phenomenal.
Sebastian Maniscalco
But, like, doesn't have to be a full ounce. If you got. Let's say you got $200 worth of. It's a $200 chunk, whatever that looks like. Right. Do you think it's more of. Because I'm like, I don't know what to do with this thing.
Pete Corieli
Well, is it. How big is it comparatively? The size of a quarter or quarter? I can't tell. A quarter?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Quarter.
Pete Corieli
You want to go anything gold wise? Quarter seems to be the limit. I mean, what are you going to do, hit them with, like a half a dime? I mean, you get anything small and they're going to go about you. He gave me a gold flake.
Sebastian Maniscalco
A gold flake is probably worth a hundred bucks.
Pete Corieli
What am I fucking panning in the river in Colorado? I don't know what to do with a gold flake, let alone a gold coin. What would you do with a gold flake? You're going to Chase Bank? You just flick it to the lady. Here's a gold flake. Can I get $100?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Do you think there's any gold in the river anymore? You think there's any more of that shit? Like, you know, they used to be, like, looking for gold in a river. Do you think they got it all or do you think it's still there?
Pete Corieli
Yeah, well, I mean, I know they're digging with them big machines, but like. Like, if you lived in Colorado and a river ran through your backyard on Sundays, would you. Would you pan. Would you pan the river or would your neighbors Be like, bobby, there's nothing. There's been nothing for years. Or could it change at any given moment? Could a rock make a whole thing of gold come up?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Well, why was it in the river, this gold, you know? Like, why were they going into the river? What was going on with the gold coming out of the river, you know?
Pete Corieli
Oh, yeah. I don't know, Guy. Come on. Don't make me try. And something to do with the rock formation and eroding. The water was. Eroding was melting off of the mountains, and it was cutting through the mountains, and it was carving through the earth and exploded, exposing this rare rock. Whoa. Where the did that come from? But, yeah, that's basically what happened. So what's on the COVID of the coin, though? What is? Like, what does it look? What is it? What is it?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Flag in Canada. It's a Canadian. It's Canadian gold, bro. It's another thing. Yeah, I can't cash it in here. I gotta go back to Canada, get this thing.
Pete Corieli
Geez. Plus, you gotta pay tariff on. By the time you're done, you're gonna owe money for having that coin.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Here it is. Oh, here it is right here. This is. This is what I got. Throw it up on the screen. Maple leaf. I got a maple leaf ounce. Random.
Pete Corieli
Now I have to ask what you would ask. It's just everyone knows what I'm. Because this is what you would ask. The way you told that story, correct me if I'm wrong, sounds like you kind of, like, made him give you one. Like, you put them in an awkward position because you're yelling out, somebody got gold. And now the guy who gave gold is like, oh, shit, there's one for you.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I didn't do it. I just did it as a bit going. Someone's giving out gold in the room.
Pete Corieli
And it went along to you on the stage.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah.
Pete Corieli
And you went, wow, thanks.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I went to go give it back to him. He goes, no, it's yours. But I didn't. You know what? I didn't go, here, take it. I go, you know, like, I did it. Like, it was hard for him not to. Oh, man. I went, you know, like a gesture. Like, he said, no. Oh, okay.
Pete Corieli
Oh, my. You did like, what you don't like when people do when the check comes with you, they half give their credit card and pull away.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'm on stage, bro. This is not like we're sitting at a dinner table. I got to get the crowd involved. I'm not sitting there going back and forth with a coin.
Pete Corieli
The only reason we're in this position to begin with is because you yelled out to the whole crowd, somebody's giving away gold.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah, I didn't expect the guy to stand up and give me one, bro. I thought, you know, how many gold chips you got on you?
Pete Corieli
Listen, I would, yeah, I would have taken it. I would. If I was up after you, I would have been like, hey, can any more of them gold things in your pocket? Wow, that's wild. That's wild.

Sebastian Maniscalco
Anyway, getting back into our show here. What?
Pete Corieli
Well, we're talking money sold something else on Facebook. I'm gonna tell you this. About a year ago, year and a half ago, we bought the best trampoline you can buy. Other than, other than the ones where you start to. They're built into the ground. Not one of those crazy ones, but a big mama, like 800 bucks, 15ft long with a thing all around. Took me and my father in law two full days, a whole weekend to put this thing together. It was the end of the summer. So at the end of the summer I even took, I left a frame up, which you can do, but I even took the netting and everything and put it inside for the winter and then brought it out last summer. Like I was very careful with it. Then Sadie gets migraines, so they've been going to the doctor and they've narrowed it down and she rarely gets them anymore. But at the end of last summer she was doing flips on the thing and then later that night she got him and the doctor's like, yeah, she can get him from doing that kind of stuff. Not, not jumping up and down but flips and all that. So Sadie's like, I don't, I don't want to do the trampoline anymore. So we're gonna get rid of it, right? So again, this is the end of last summer. And I'm like to Jackie, let's just freaking, you know, get rid of this goddamn thing now. And she's like, well, we'll sell it, but, like, we'll sell it. We'll sell it next year when the summer comes when people are looking for one. And I go, I don't even give a shit, man. Let's just get rid of it. And she's like, well, I don't have time to put it online. So I throw a tarp over this thing over the winter. And like, all winter long, I'm looking at my backyard. I'm like, God damn, I can't believe I got this stupid thing. I don't even want it anymore. But it's so big, bro. It's like, someone's gotta come take it. Just come take it away. I can't. So finally we go, all right, let's sell this thing. And I go, I can take it down this much. So I took the legs off and this. So you get this whole. Whole. The whole thing you jump on is about 15ft high, and it's leaning against my garage. It's huge. It was really hard to get it there. And I'm like, I'm done. So Jackie goes, what should I sell it for? And I was like, well, should we just give it away? And she's like, I'm not giving it away. I go. She goes, then you just get any loser. So we go, all right. I go, whatever, Jack. And she goes, I'll just sell for 250 puts online for 250. I'm talking half hour later. She's like, wow, everyone wants it. I'm like, which course they do. They see this thing online, it's in mint condition, and wait. And I go in there and forget the any of that. It's together, like all you have to do. It's going to take you a half hour to put this thing together the way I have it set up for you. So I. We're both like, first person. Boom. You got it. Some lady, right? Seemed like a nice enough lady. She got kids. So Jackie just said. Jackie comes out and goes, her husband's going to come get it when he gets off work. And I go, did you make it clear that they need a truck? Okay, I told them. I told them, you know, they need a truck. I said, all right, what time are they coming? Six o' clock. I go, all Right. You know, and, like, what you take on when you're selling something and you've shown pictures of what it looks like and everything else when you come to pick it up. Assume. Assume I'm 87 years old in a wheelchair. Assume that that's the level of help you're getting from me. Fucking none, right? Bring your staff. Bring everything you need to get this fucking thing out of here. Sorry, Lisa, cursing again, but I'm not helping you. I feel like I shouldn't. I know this is. I know you're not selling a lot of stuff at the top of the hill in Beverly Hills, but nevertheless. So sure enough, now Jackie's running Sadie to, like, soccer or something like that. And now I'm in the kitchen, and I was in my office, right? And I come out. So now I'm in the kitchen because it's. It's like getting close to the time that they said they might be coming. Getting close to it. It's like 10, 2. They said they'd be here at like 6. It's like 5, 50. Now I'm wondering what. My eye catches. I look out my windows. Fucking pickup truck in my driveway right? Then I look. You know, it's small, smaller town than Fredonia, so it's like, even a little more like, you know. Anyway, so I look at this pickup truck. Let me just leave it at this. And there's a guy taking the poles and everything, leaning up against the fence. He's taking the poles and the screws, and he's putting it in his truck. And there's a woman there with a little kid running around. Clearly, they're the people, okay, that was selling it to. But, like, you didn't give me the money yet. You didn't have contact with anyone who's selling. You just pull into my driveway and your husband starts loading it in. What are we doing? Whoa, whoa, whoa. And, like, I don't need any of this. This is already more than I wanted. You know, I should just put it. Jackie. I'll just lean it against the telephone pole. It'll be going five minutes. So, sure enough, it's the lady. Oh, I'm sorry. I go, oh, my wife said you were gonna call her when you were on your way. Because then my Jackie would tell me, and she goes, oh, yeah, I was gonna. I just did in the driveway. Sorry. And then, like, now my thing's texting from Jackie going, they're coming now. They're coming now. Coming now. I'm talking to the lady. So our garden that we Worked so hard on. It's starting to come up and these beautiful like plants and stuff. And up against the wall, these bells. All of a sudden I hear the bells jiggling. This five year old boy just plowed through my garden trampling over stuff. And he's jiggling the bell. So I gotta go, oh, oh, hey little fella, you wanna stay on the stepping stones? Fucking shit. So. And then she goes, oh, get out of there, Billy, whatever his name is. You know, nice people, nice people. But, you know, boys will be boys.
Sebastian Maniscalco
No, not really. Not really.
Pete Corieli
Your kid was on a art decoration at Robert Downey Jr. S house that your kid thought was a swing. I always think of that and it makes me not be as mad because even your kids.
Sebastian Maniscalco
And I told him, get the fuck out of there. Robert Downey Jr. Didn't say. I say, get out of there. At this point, you tell the family, take the shit out of your truck right now and get off my property.
Pete Corieli
First of all, they were, they were nice people, but they were just a little.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I don't care. You're stealing, you're stealing.
Pete Corieli
At this point, that's the money I did. I said, that's a Jackie. I go, it's stealing. So they give me the money. But so the kid comes out, right? So I go, I turn around, I go, oh, okay. Because you know, I'll get out of the guy, okay? And, and now I turn back to them and I'm like, so, like, I don't. I go, have you seen this? Like, I'm pointing to it. I go, hi. It's not gonna fit on the truck. And the husband goes, oh, no, I'll get it, I'll get it. You know, he's just like, it's just a father and a husband.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Stop cutting the corners. What are we talking here?
Pete Corieli
No, he's a. What do you mean? He's a, he's a, like a, he's a fireman. But I'm just saying, he just like clearly like a dad and a husband. He wants to get this thing and get home with it, but he's not fucking. So he's just like, oh, I could fit it. And I'm like, I don't think you can, man. And then he's like, oh, oh, well, I, I could just take the, the springs off. I go, okay, it's like a tool hook thing. He's got. No, I got something with my snowmobile. So, you know, I go, okay. And then she's handing me the money. I'll give her that so now she's handing me the money, and then he walks over it and it's giant. And I look at him and I go, yeah, that's not gonna fit on the truck. And he goes, well, like I said, I could take apart the spring. So then he goes to get something out of the truck. Dude, these springs took me a weekend to put this shit together, right? So not only are you not sitting here doing this in my driveway in my head, but number two, I can't have this thing dismantled. It'll break my heart. It's like you're taking away the two full days I put in with my father in law, right?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Fuck do you care?
Pete Corieli
One of the perks of the deal is that it's to get. So as he's getting some of the truck, I turn to him and I go, you know what, man? You. I'm sorry. I was expecting you just to come with a truck and take it and go. I mean, you can't just sit in my driveway. It's gonna take you hours be inside my family in my driveway. I go. And then the wife picks it up right away, and she's like, yeah, we got. Well, we'll have to come back. We'll have to come back. So now I'm like, we're gonna have to have a second visit, right? So I go, I'm sorry. I mean, I. I told my wife to be clear about a truck, you know, and then he's like, well, you know, this is a truck. And I'm like, this is a pickup truck. A truck is a truck. A truck is like a. You know, we're gonna argue over what a truck is. So far, all I'm getting out of this is trampled plants. So. So they, they, they leave, but they leave me the money, so I won't, you know, because this is a hot ticket item everybody wanted. So. So I was like, oh, my God. So now they got to come back. And this is why again, I just want to give it away. So now Jackie comes home. What happened? What happened? I pull up in a pickup truck. I kept the money. They're going to come. So she's like, oh, I'm getting a text from now. And again. They were nice people. And he's like, he's going to come tomorrow right after work, and he comes the next day and he's got a trailer. So. And it's still too. Pretty much too big for the trailer. So when he sits it on the trail, it's like parts of the trampoline are almost Going to push through and rip the. And I had to help. I'm sitting here walking this shit over, and he's like, all right, on three. On three. A stranger. And I'm doing a countdown to put shit down with him, bro. I'm in my 50s. What the fuck for $250? I mean, come on. I'm no Rockefeller, but I'll wipe my ass with 250. Come on. This is ridiculous. So. So I help him get in. I'm like, wow, one. One bump, and it's going to rip right through the trampoline. I go, I got rags. You want to put a. Know where those have been the good. That's right. So he goes, I got. I got stuff in my truck. I got stuff in my. You know, and so we get some. And again, now, you know, there's a. The family's there again, and they finally get it out. And, like, just. Just. Just once they're out of my driveway, it's not my problem anymore. It's no longer my. You know, so they gone. And then later on that night. What do you think about this? I kind of liked it. I thought it was actually a nice touch. Jackie gets a text on her phone while we're watching Top Chef, and she goes, oh, that's awesome to see. And she goes, check it out. And it's a picture of the boy and the girl bouncing around on a trampoline at their house, you know, so it's good to see the trampoline found a nice home. But what'd you take on buying something from somebody on, like, ebay or something, and then sending them a photo of you using the thing that you bought? Having so much fun with the bike. Thanks. I liked it. I liked it as the seller. It made me feel good about, you know, I felt. I felt like the owner of a store for a second. Like, wow, we got a good reputation here in Coryelli's shop.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Oh, wow.
Pete Corieli
Wow.
Sebastian Maniscalco
That's unbelievable, man.
Pete Corieli
Listen, next time I have a garage sale, I'll sell some of your stuff if you want me to. I'll set up a booth for you. I'll let you know how your stuff is going anyway. What's up?
Sebastian Maniscalco
No, I mean, listen, to get to your point in regards to. If you buy something from somebody, you have to come like, this ain't. This ain't Home Depot, where we got two guys that's gonna take it out to your car.
Pete Corieli
Right? Exactly. No, none of that. Right. Assume. I'm. Assume the seller. I'm gonna be a Little more crass, but let's just say this is just incapable of moving.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah, well, here. My father sold a pool table. We had a pool table downstairs in the basement, right. He sold it, and he said to the people coming, I ain't touching this thing. So you see, pool table's heavy. They took it apart. Five guys came to my dad's house, took the damn thing apart, hauled it up the stairs. He didn't help them at all. He couldn't. Number one. But number two, they came with labor to. To take this thing out. And then the next day, my. My dad was robbed.
Pete Corieli
Was he really. Oh, my God.
Sebastian Maniscalco
That's why the robbery.
Pete Corieli
Yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I don't like this. Random people coming to the house off the Internet. Yeah, I. I'm not into it, man. Because it's like, who. Who. You don't know who's coming to your house.
Pete Corieli
I know, but, like, you know, Patton's appliance shop, and the guy's pulling up with a.
Sebastian Maniscalco
What? A.
Pete Corieli
With a. With a French. You know? You think he just got. Graduated from Harvard? I mean, who. Don't know. Just because he's got the Patton's uniform on, he's as random as the. As the guy who's selling from his house. You know, it's like, I don't know. You wouldn't get in a car. Like, if you're walking down the street and a stranger said, where you going? Hop in. I'll give you a ride. That's crazy. But if that same person said, I'm an Uber, now you can get in. Now you go, oh, okay, now you're an Uber. They didn't do anything different. They're not more trained. Same guy, no difference.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah. It's like you're on the other end of a trampoline looking at a guy you don't know back into a trailer, and you know, all of a sudden, you're a team. Didn't know this guy from nothing.
Pete Corieli
No.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Now all of a sudden, you're a team. Getting this thing into the trailer on three.
Pete Corieli
On three.
Sebastian Maniscalco
That's what he did. 250 for the trampoline. That's what you do next time. 250 for the trampoline. An extra 50 if you want help.
Pete Corieli
No, I don't want.
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's like a delivery charge, right?
Pete Corieli
No. 250 for the trampoline. 300 if you ask me. Wait, no how I say it. Not for sale. I want to, like. You got to get more penalized than that. I'm not helping. I'm not helping. It's 300 if you ask for help, but I'm still not helping. I'm penalizing you for even suggesting I help. By the way, did you hear not to sidetrack? The Pope is also a White Sock fan. That's your team.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'm glad you brought this up, because I had a meeting yesterday. Again, I pulled a Pete in the meeting. I don't know what's going on with me, bro. I think at this age, I just got no. No tolerance anymore. So it was a meeting where I have a special coming out, right? And it was a marketing meeting, and it was the whole marketing team and everybody on the other side of the zoom. And there's like, you know, when you go to Netflix, you go to Amazon, you go to any of these places, they have, like, a banner, like, of the TV show and then slides to the next banner. So my question was, am I going to be on the banner? Oh, yeah, you're going to be.
Pete Corieli
I go.
Sebastian Maniscalco
They weren't getting what I was talking about, so I pulled it up. I go, see this, and it was a picture of the Pope. I go, I want to be on where the Pope is when my special comes out, right? By the way, the Pope, I think it was a couple days ago, pulled this up. Pope was out doing his wave, right? And I think this is the Chicago in them, because I haven't seen this type of vehicle yet. We were talking about Pope mobiles. This guy said, the hell with the glass case. And for. You know, normally he has, like, a cone or something over him. Look this up on the Pope mobile. Recently, he came out with the Mercedes, and he was a Mercedes G wagon with the top cut off, but it was like, no security. There's nothing. You know, it was almost like, come on. It was. It was nice. It was nice to see that Pope going, oh, here it is. Here it is. Oh, look at this. This is a slick look, bro. White on white, right? White on white. No dome, no nothing. Look at this. The Pope is from Chicago. I'm from Chicago. I want to do a tasting with the Pope through our hometown. This is how I want to do the tasting in Chicago. Me and him and him. Yeah, me and him in this thing. And we go to Portillo's. What do you think?
Pete Corieli
Here's my big fear. I'm afraid Stanley Tucci, who is probably not even from Chicago, is going to slide in and do his whole I did conclave. I'm so connected. It's like I'm practically a priest and you know? Nah, I think the Pope's brothers will be like, come on, you didn't see his specials. Remember when I was doing the bit and we were all laughing? That was him when I was doing the thing. Well, I was in the kitchen, and I'm doing the orange, you know, I don't know, man. If it was a year ago and you said, there's a priest named Father Bob out of Chicago I want to go to a game with, and I want to eat pizza with a phone call. And that happens. So now all of a sudden, he wins a vote, and it's as if this is a mythical God that floated down from heaven and is now the Pope. It was Bob. It was Bob a year ago. And this was very doable.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Father Bob, he was doing the confessionals on a Saturday, talking to everyday people, and now all of a sudden, he's in a Mercedes in St. Peter's Square.
Pete Corieli
That's it. I'm telling you, man, there's a good chance Father Bob used to do your bits jokingly, because from Chicago, you're clean. You're a legend in Chicago. And, you know.
Sebastian Maniscalco
White soccer graphic installation honoring Pope. Yeah. And his World Series. At the World Series. Man, he was at the World Series when the Chicago went. Come on. So this guy was, like, living a daily life. He was at the World Series. God, he's been to Portillo's.
Pete Corieli
I'm telling you. Who's to say if he spent it at White Sox game, He's eating at Portillo's. There's a good chance he's heard you. Stand up, bro.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Maybe he's even been to a show, bro. We should get past him. We should scan the United center shows to see if this guy was in the crowd.
Pete Corieli
Could we get an AI to do that? Like, what can I do? I didn't even understand that when you said about Patrick, he's using Google. He should be using AI. What is AI doing that I'm not doing?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Oh, God. We don't have. We don't have three days to explain this to you.
Pete Corieli
Some lady sent me something which I really want to do. It's like, you go. You join AI chat AI. Well, some AI. And then you read this paragraph, and it's like, I want to learn more about my inner self, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. You say that to your AI, and then the AI is going to spit out, like, 10 questions she said for you to answer, and you answer those questions, and then it's going to surmise very quickly tell you about you in, like, a two paragraphs, and she goes, and it will blow your mind.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Send it to me.
Pete Corieli
Okay.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Send it to me. And maybe we do this on the cast next week.
Pete Corieli
Yeah. She said it'll probably make you cry, what it says about you, because it's so dead on. Like, you know, you almost felt like no one would know that. You don't even know that about yourself till you hear it.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Send it to me right now. I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna do it right now.
Pete Corieli
Guy, come on.
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's like, after the show.
Pete Corieli
Yeah. All right. I think Pam Bondi is your connection to the Pope. J.D. vance had a meeting with the previous pope a few weeks ago. She probably knows who made the call to get him there. Well, let's not get crazy, because if you're gonna bother to ask Pam Bondi for a favor, it's not the Pope. What?
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's not the Pope.
Pete Corieli
Not as I'd rather. I. Personally, I'd rather meet Big Tea than Pope.
Sebastian Maniscalco
All right, guys, there you have it. Pete and Sebastian show once again. Take a look at our Patreon page. Yeah, Sebastian show got. I think I just posted something on over there about this new Ponzi podcast. Podcast that's coming out June 13th. It debuts the Tribeca Film Festival. Eight episodes. The story of Charles Ponzi. Check it out. I voice Charles Ponzi. I think it's a really, really great listen, and you can catch that. June 13th, it launches worldwide. So that is that Pete and Sebastian show. We will see you next week.
Pete Corieli
The show has ended. What's patchouli? I don't even know what patchouli is, man.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah, it's like, if you smell patchouli, you'll know. It's like a hippie type of scent. You find it in Portland a lot.
