Ep 277: Workwear, More Like Work Where?

Summary

This Is Important – Ep 277: "Workwear, More Like Work Where?"

Date: December 30, 2025
Hosts: Adam Devine, Anders Holm, Blake Anderson, Kyle Newacheck

---

Overview

In this episode, the four friends dive into an unusually “serious” (read: comedic and chaotic) discussion about winter life in Winnipeg, the merits and pitfalls of workwear fashion, holiday traditions, and coping mechanisms for enduring bitter cold. Cigarette smoking, professional versus candid family photos, and the culture clash of work-hard versus “look work-hard” also take center stage. Throughout, the group’s signature banter and relentless ribbing keep things light-hearted, even as they touch on themes of boredom, adulting, bad holiday gifts, and the hilarious realities of being a grown-up with childish impulses.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Holiday Cards & Traditions

Timestamps: 03:25–14:43

• Durs (Anders) talks about sending out professional family Christmas cards, sparking a debate about whether it matters if a card says "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Holidays," and if anyone is really offended by the difference.
  • “We just wrote Merry Christmas. And then I’m sending it to some Jewish friends. That’s the only time it dawned on me that maybe, maybe they don’t like it.” (06:00 – Anders)
  • Adam reflects on the tradition: “I really, really want to start. I will be honest…I never do it. I’m just bad with that kind of shit.” (11:27 – Adam)
• The group pokes fun at each other over hiring a photographer ("woman" vs "person") and repeatedly riffs on the gendered mention with comic exaggerations.
• Durs and Blake both explain their families’ approaches: some go professional, others collage existing personal photos.
• Brief breakdown of the “holiday card tier list”—who gets which card, and when.

2. Holiday Plans, Presents, and Adult Realities

Timestamps: 14:52–18:49

• Adam’s looking forward to escaping the cold of Winnipeg for family time, but jokes, “They better got me some good shit.”
• The crew discusses how, as adults, Christmas can become a little sad when presents dwindle.
  • “My Christmas is, like, pretty depressing for me because… I don’t get any presents.” (15:30 – Durs)
• The group compares notes on gift-giving in relationships (“I usually get, like, sunglasses, but it’s the same pair every year.” – Durs, 16:00)

3. Winter, Winnipeg, and Surviving the Cold

Timestamps: 18:52–23:55, 54:17–59:36

• Blake describes his Winnipeg experience: freezing cold, embracing new gear, and being bored enough to pick up cigarette smoking for “character prep.”
• Adam scoffs at Blake’s California softness in the cold: “You’ve been to winter? Peg Manoba? …Vancouver doesn’t get cold. They don’t even get snow in Vancouver.” (20:54–21:09)
• The group riffs nostalgically (and bitterly) about Midwest winters, darkness, and the depressing lack of daylight.
• Later in the episode, Blake raves about “Murder Peg” (Winnipeg)—corroborating its dangerous reputation, but ultimately concluding: “There’s a charm. I don’t know if I could do it. It’s a long winter out here.” (59:24)

4. Cigarette Smoking & Boredom Coping

Timestamps: 23:56–41:01; 41:02–44:10

• Blake admits he’s smoking more cigarettes in Winnipeg because he’s bored and it’s a way to pass the time (and claims it's for a role).
  • “Honestly, it heats you up.” (31:51 – Blake)
• Adam (trying to dissuade Blake): “Don’t start, man. It’s a slippery slope. Don’t start.” (41:02)
• Anders asks about family history with smoking and lung cancer (32:07–32:27).
• The group mocks the dark warning labels on Canadian packs, with Blake claiming: “It’s kind of cool, though. You’re sort of selling it, dude.” (32:42)
• Discussions spiral into comedic advice for staying warm in the cold—using microwavable plushies (“Warmies”) and elaborate steps to facilitate masturbation as an alternative to smoking due to boredom.

5. Workwear Fashion: Carhartt, Tough Duck, & Blue Collar Cosplay

Timestamps: 60:39–67:43

• Blake embraces workwear (Carhartt, Tough Duck, Dickies), buying it as both fashion and “survival gear.”
  • “So, workwear. So you like to play pretend and play dress up as if you’re a working man?” (61:11 – Anders)
  • “Blake, a guy who’s never done, like, a day of hard labor in his life… dressing up as if you’re a working man.” (61:14 – Anders)
• The hosts differentiate between legit workwear brands: Carhartt (Michigan), Dickies (West Coast), Ben Davis (“the OG”), and the Canadian “Tough Duck.”
• “My job is looking. You go to a place where they put makeup on you, they do your hair, someone brings you your omelet in the morning.” – Anders skewering Blake’s new blue-collar image (62:13)
• Sizing puzzles for work jackets and comic self-deprecation about body parts (“There’s parts of me that aren’t that small… It’s not my dick.” – Anders, 67:32)

6. On Set Stories, Work Schedules & Actor Myths

Timestamps: 63:06–66:19

• The group reminisces about the mythic “8-hour days” and martinis on set ("Rat Pack" legends) versus modern 12–14 hour days.
  • “That was like the Rat Guys. They literally only had eight-hour workdays…” (63:19 – Anders)
  • Unions and why shoot days got longer (B: “Dudes are just like, yo, I want to bang out 15 years and then just go retire to somewhere where I have a boat. …Eight hours sounds awesome.” (64:45))
• “French hours” (lunch-on-the-go) versus U.S. set lunch culture.

7. Memorable Winnipeg Moments: Local Culture & Food

Timestamps: 57:10–59:36

• Blake sings the praises of local drive-in BJ’s and its legendary chili burger: “It is literally a hut where these old women forge the most beautiful burgers you will ever sink your teeth into.” (58:09)
  • Anders & Kyle mock Blake’s phrasing about “gnarled burger witches” and “meat slinging wizard women.” (58:25–58:34)

8. Advice & Takebacks

Timestamps: 68:08–71:55

• The hosts close with resolutions and public service announcements about not starting smoking, picking better heroes, and staying in school.
  • “If you’re 40 years old and you’re thinking about starting smoking, don’t do it.” (69:44 – Blake)
  • “Basically, don’t do anything because you think it looks cool.” (70:03 – Anders)
• Adam: “Pick your heroes based on what they’re good at or if they’re nice or kind.” (70:12)

Summary Takeaway

This episode is a classic TII mixture: a wild ride from winter ennui to workwear fetishization, from holiday card angst to real talk on cigarettes and coping with being old (and cold). Even as they roast each other for boredom-driven vices and pretend blue-collar lifestyles, the core message emerges: adulting is weird, it's OK to not be cool (at 40 or 42), and honest friendship means calling out each other’s bullshit—lovingly and hilariously.

[A]

Oh, well. Well, not everybody celebrates holidays. That's true. Thank you.

[C]

Did you guys get my, my, my holiday card? Christmas merry Christmas card? Not yet.

[A]

I assume I did.

[C]

Should be in the mail.

[B]

You did professional photos, right? We.

[C]

Well, yeah. I mean, yeah, Sears. Professional. No, it's just this woman that comes to us and we go take photos.

[A]

Woman.

[B]

What is happening?

Woman.

Do you pay this woman? Yeah, that's professional.

[A]

That's professional.

[C]

Yeah, that's what I said. That. Yeah.

[B]

But then you, like stepped it out. You're like, yeah, there's like a whole thing, like, apparently she does it for money. And then we give her the money and then she takes the pictures.

[C]

No, you stepped it out, dude. I didn't step it out. I go, yeah, you're fucking disaster, my guy. And then Blake says sears. And I go, no, not Sears. It's a woman that comes to my house. So don't try to fucking pin me down with those sunglasses, dude.

That's a professional. I know are not sunglasses. These are funglasses, okay?

[C]

Yeah, you're trying to pin me down, dude, like right out of the gate too.

[B]

Like, you know what?

[C]

When Blake said sears and I said, no, dude, not Sears. It's a woman that comes to my house and she takes the photos. Well, we wrote on the cards, merry Christmas.

[A]

Of course you did.

[C]

And then we sent them Out.

[A]

Of course you did.

[B]

I do like that it said Happy Holidays and you were like. And you went through them all and you.

[A]

It's handwritten.

[C]

No, we never even thought of writing Happy Holidays. We just wrote Merry Christmas. And then I'm, I'm sending it to some Jewish friends. And that's the only time it dawned on me that maybe, maybe they don't like it. But, but also I'm like, I wouldn't.

[A]

Care if they don't like it.

[C]

Well, I wouldn't care if they sent me a Happy Hanukkah card. I would think that's pretty dope. I'm like, hell yeah, it's your happy Hanukkah rock out on the Hanukkah. So I wonder if anyone actually cares at all. It's just.

[B]

Or if I'm sure someone cares. Someone cares.

[C]

Oh, absolutely.

[A]

Somebody really gives a.

[B]

But I'm sure it's a little bit of like, I don't celebrate Christmas. What do I care? Yeah, just that. It's just that.

[C]

Yeah, it's just a nice photo of your, Your friends and co workers, families.

[B]

They're like, look at this.

[C]

It's.

[B]

It's the divine family. It looks like someone came over their house and they paid them to take pictures.

[A]

Pros.

[C]

Yeah, that's right. But not at Sears. To answer Blake's question.

[B]

Do you go pro? Blake?

[C]

No, Blake does.

[A]

Do I go pro? I don't. I don't even do it.

[B]

You guys don't do Christmas cards?

[A]

No, no, no, I don't. I. I really, really want to start. I will be honest.

[B]

Uhuh.

[C]

Well, why? If you really, really want to. It's so easy, dude. You just call a woman. Yeah, she comes to our house woman. Why do you say woman like that, Dude? Why do you say woman?

[A]

Sorry, it's the way you say it. It rings very heavy in my headphones.

[C]

You call a woman.

[A]

Say you say woman.

[C]

No, I don't. That's just how I say you do.

[B]

He didn't say. No, no, he just. He said you call a woman, you call a woman. The woman comes over in the way that only a woman could.

[A]

What about just saying you call a photographer. Why is it you call a woman?

[C]

Well, in my case, it's a woman.

[B]

Well, you don't want.

[A]

You don't want a guy, you call Christmas woman.

[B]

And, and look, I'll say it. You don't want a guy.

[C]

Yeah. You don't want a guy.

[A]

What do you mean? The only photographer I know is a.

[B]

Guy, you get a guy. Next thing you know, he sends you the prints. It's just all your wife's. Wife's. And you go, hey, buddy, what the.

[C]

Yeah, it's just all your wife's tits and ass. Goodbye.

[A]

Hey, what are you doing?

[B]

He goes, what do you want? Hire a woman, then. And I go, next time, we will. The.

[A]

Is this.

[C]

And also usually. And not always, but usually, women are better. See? Did you like how I said it then?

[A]

I guess, but you're about to say something totally not true. What are you about to say?

[C]

Are better with children?

[B]

Oh, got him.

[C]

I would say, for the most part, women are better with little kids. Little kids are more comfortable to smile.

[A]

Getting little kids to pose for pictures.

[B]

And. And if push comes to shove, they can dig their nails into their arm and say, you give me one, you little sack of. You give me one.

[C]

Or.

[A]

Or.

[C]

Hear me out. They can whip their tit out. They can. The child can suckle.

[A]

What?

[C]

Get some energy.

[B]

And I've heard about this. I've heard about this.

[C]

And then maybe they're ready for a photo.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

Daddy's drinking his can of C4. Baby needs his.

[B]

Blake, it seems like you've never heard of this. I've heard of this.

[A]

Yeah, I guess. Yeah, I guess. I guess you're right. It's. It's making sense.

[B]

You just.

[A]

Sometimes you have to step it out.

[C]

Okay, well, all I'm saying is you could call a person. How about that? Blended.

[B]

And you're.

[C]

You're the type of guy that. You're going to see my merry, you know, happy Christmas or Merry Christmas card that I sent to you, and then you're going to be offended by it because you're acting like such a bitch. You're acting like such a bitch right now.

[A]

I'm actually not that guy. I'm actually not that guy. Okay. I don't mind what you write.

[C]

Well, then why are you so offended by. You hire a woman to come take photos.

[A]

It's just. You hire a photographer. It's interesting to say you hire a woman.

[C]

Hey. But also, it's not that big of a deal, dude. It's not that big of a deal, dude.

[A]

It's not a big deal. It's just something that was ringing really heavy in my cans.

[B]

Well, if it.

[C]

But if it rings so heavy. Yeah. Then obviously it is a big deal to you, Blakey. That is such a big deal.

[A]

It's not a big deal.

[B]

And, Blake, I find that. I find it real fascinating coming from somebody who's wearing Blackhead right now.

[C]

Yeah. You're wearing blackheads. Yeah, allegedly. I'm offended.

[B]

It's not black face. It's blackhead.

[C]

Yeah, I'm off.

[B]

I think you know exactly what I'm talking about. You're wearing what people call a balaclava.

[A]

This is a balaclava. Thank you. I'm glad you know the name.

[B]

What you're doing is co opting a look of that black men have cultivated over generations of shaving their heads, and you're just trying to cash in on that until.

[C]

Oh, see, I didn't even know. I didn't even know that. I didn't even know.

[A]

Excuse me.

[B]

If now he's doing black head and mouth.

[C]

Offended.

[A]

This is ninja. This is ninja.

[B]

Even worse. Wow. Wow.

[A]

I can't win with you guys. You guys are acting like women.

[B]

You're not black. You're a ninja. I don't.

[A]

You guys are acting like women. Shut up.

[C]

Once again.

[A]

And then. I never do it. I never do it. I'm just. I'm bad with that kind of shit.

I agree. It seems fun.

[B]

You could do that.

[A]

It seems fun.

[C]

Could do that.

[A]

I would love to. I would love to start the tradish, but I'm. I'm a failure.

[C]

Well, your. Your woman friend. Sorry. I don't want to offend you or say anything that would really offend you. Blake, she doesn't. Partner, she doesn't want to do this.

[A]

I think she does. I think it's. I think the ball's in my court, which is never, never a good thing when it comes to the family.

[C]

I mean, if the ball's in your Court. Then she made the poor decision by putting it in your court.

[B]

I honestly think that she did it on purpose. She's like.

[C]

She's like, I don't actually want to do this. Yeah, that's right.

[A]

I disagree. I disagree. I think it's. I think it's a teaching moment. I think I. And I'm not learning the lesson.

[B]

I was like, who learning?

[A]

Yeah, I'm not learning the lesson, and I need to step up and I need to do better. And I will. And you will get those cards.

[C]

Do endures. Is mine in the mail? What's going on? Did you send yours out? What's happening?

[B]

I think ours is going out this coming week.

[C]

I love it.

[B]

We don't go professional. We don't go professional. I don't know. We just.

[C]

Who takes it?

[A]

Some dude.

[B]

We just have, like, pictures that we take.

[C]

Just pictures.

[A]

Oh, yeah. You do a collage.

[B]

Sometimes we'll do a collage. Sometimes we'll do, like, one on the front and a couple on the back. But usually it's just like our own photos. We don't do, like a hey, on the beach, everyone wear linens or whatever.

[C]

You dig through your actual. Actual photos.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Which I like. It'll be like, them in, like, in Australia or whatever. And you're like, oh, that looks like a really fun time. Yeah, I like that. I love receiving them. I wish I. I gave some. I'm glad that I'm still on people's list without reciprocating, so thank you, guys. I love them. They warm my heart.

[C]

Yeah. I think some of ours have gone out and some of ours hasn't. And if. If yours hasn't yet, Blake, we will take your card and we won't. We won't send you one well tiered system right.

[B]

Where, like, real friends get at that first.

[A]

Yeah, I'm off the list.

[C]

Yeah, I might take you off the list that. I don't know why some people have been like, oh, thanks for the card already. And then I see, like, stacks of cards throughout the house. I'm like, why didn't we get these all out at the same time? I don't understand the reasoning.

[A]

Woman.

[C]

My woman didn't do it.

[A]

What's your woman doing over? I don't know. Maybe the ball's in your court. Maybe there's 14 that are in your court.

[B]

Can you imagine? That lesson was learned a long time ago here.

Hello. Emma threw the ball and was like, where's your court? I got no court.

There's no ball. We're not even in a league. We're in a league of their own.

[B]

You threw the ball in the pool.

We chase the snow. I like sitting in a warm place with the snow outside, looking out the window, just being cozy, stroking my children.

[A]

That's where I'm kind of. I'm kind of the opposite. If I'm in a cold place. I like to be real. I like to just like sit outside and kind of freeze. I'm kind of into that vibe.

[B]

And dude, if we ever did this together, I'd be inside looking at you, waving. You could wave at me inside.

Why at 40, almost 2 years old, do are you?

[A]

I'm bored.

[B]

Okay. By the way, I. It's that cold that this dude needs that hot smoke in the lungs.

[A]

No, honestly, it heats you up.

[C]

Dude, you just. You just smoke weed or you just. Just smoke weed?

There's a lot of weed out here. I don't want to be high though. I just want a little. I want a little zip. I want a little zip. Cigarettes are. Cigarettes are. They're fun.

[B]

I'm sorry, either of your parents smoked? They did.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not my dad.

[C]

And did you have anyone in your family die of lung cancer?

[A]

Yes, my uncle Chris.

[B]

Okay, well, yeah, that's why he says I'm a light up a Chris every time. He's like, let me just light one more Chris here.

[A]

Well, he didn't smoke cigarette.

[C]

Oh, okay.

[B]

But yeah, yeah, Isn't that what Adam just asked?

[C]

No, I said of lung cancer.

[A]

So that doesn't necessarily mean you're.

[C]

Doesn't necessarily, but it usually does.

[A]

It is a huge proponent, and all the. Oh, all the cigarette packaging in Canada is absolutely insane.

[C]

Oh, yeah.

[B]

It shows the things on it, right?

[A]

Like, it's just lungs and blood, and every filter says every puff is poison. Kind of cool, though. You're sort of selling it, dude. Yeah.

[B]

They're like, you're smoking the devil's dick. And you're like, aren't I?

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

And Blake's like, exactly.

[A]

It's like, Slayer sponsors every Pat.

[C]

Blake's like, the devil's.

[A]

I love Heather, baby. Deep Throat, baby.

[B]

I should make, like, a. Like, leaning into the cigarette culture of, like. I know it's bad for me and just call it, like, coffin nails. Like, let's just. Let's go.

[A]

Honestly, like. Yes. And to be very sensitive to Adam's father and lung cancer is a terrible, terrible, terrible thing. But I do feel like cigarettes are kind of. They're kind of bouncing back a little right now, and maybe we shouldn't be glorifying them because they're terrible. Why?

[B]

You don't have to be. So. Yeah, we can glorify anything. If you didn't get the memo about being bad for you.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, Sorry.

[B]

Adam's dad's from an era that they pushed it. Yeah. I mean, Joe Camel, of course. Buying cigarettes now if you're smoking.

[A]

We're from that era, too. We were the ones who were targeted. We were the children that Joe was. Was Pied Pipering over to a pack, dude. But that's just.

[C]

Yeah, but. Well, Blake, see, this is where I'm hung up for you, smoking when you're like, it's back, baby. You don't have to do the trendy thing and be. You're no longer a youth that needs to be, like, trying to do what's cool and what's hot right now and smoking cigarettes because it's cool and it's bouncing back.

[A]

Adam, Adam, I told you it was a bit of character prep, but also kind of bored. Kind of bored. Looking for something to do. Yeah.

[C]

Well, dude, then you just do cocaine. Do cocaine.

[B]

Yeah, that's true. Thank you.

[A]

No, Adam, I can't just be in Winnipeg in the snow, snowed up. I can't be blowing rails left and right.

[B]

Is smoking an activity?

[A]

Yeah, it's a good way to be. You know, kill some time, get warm, sit out in the snow, but not freeze the dead.

[C]

It for sure. Doesn't get you warm. It does not get you.

[A]

It feels like it's doing it. No, it feels like it's doing it. It does fire.

[B]

Why don't you paint? Are you. Are you working every day or like every other.

[C]

Are you jerking off enough? Are you jerking off enough?

[B]

Thank you.

[C]

I.

[A]

Honestly, I'm not. I'm really not join. That.

[B]

We're concerned about.

[A]

You think it's the cold? I think my dick is absolutely fudgeing. Terrified of. Of the weather out here. It's completely retreat. I'm sitting with a fuck. My dick is smaller than ever right now.

[B]

Shave your dick and see what you know.

[C]

You get. You get one of those, like, bags of. You get like a bag of. Of rice or corn.

[A]

I have a. Yeah.

[C]

And then you put that in the microwave. You warm that up. You. Then you. Then you come. You place it on your pizza.

[B]

A bag of corn.

[C]

And so it really. And it warms.

[A]

And let's keep this to a minimum.

[C]

And it warms up the area. And then that way you've thawed out your dick and it's ready to go. It's ready. And then you put your hand on top of it, so your hand is ready to go. And then you. Then you.

[A]

The.

[C]

The whole.

[B]

The.

[C]

The plate is set. The plate is set for you to Jo. Instead of smoking all these cigs.

[A]

Dude, wait, wait.

[B]

And if you're listening at home, don't try this at home.

[A]

Step me through this again. You take some frozen corn.

[C]

No, not frozen corn.

[B]

No, no, no, no.

[A]

Just a bag of corn.

[C]

Like a cloth bag. Like a cloth bag.

[A]

Like we can.

[C]

Yeah, like, it could be in like a. A.

[A]

A paper towel.

[B]

Like a fanny pack.

[A]

What are we talking?

[C]

It could be in like a fanny pack or it could be in like a pillowcase.

[B]

Could be in a pillowcase or something.

[C]

And then you warm it up.

[A]

So I'm. So I'm taking my pillow out of the case.

[B]

I'm.

[A]

I'm filling the case with frozen corn and putting it in the microwave. It's just.

[C]

It's not even. It's not frozen corn. It's just corn. Like, you would just buy like, like a can.

[B]

A can of corn, like a near of corn. And then you shuck it.

[C]

It's not shocked. Or like beans or like. Like a. Or like rocks. It could just. It could literally be rocks. Anything that would. That would take the heat.

[B]

An ear of corn or some rocks. Got it.

[C]

My. My child has these things that you. They're called, like, little sleepies or something, and. And it's filled with, like, some kind of beads, and you put it in the microwave, and then you put it in them when they're going to bed, and it's warm and it's snuggly, and they. They cuddle up to it.

[B]

Those microwaves are still in there, bro.

[C]

I was thinking for you, since you're having a hard time jerking off because you're too cold and you're sin said doing this thing that's really bad for my friend, and I don't want him to die of lung cancer. You could then just jerk off more by getting yourself a little sleepy. You microwave it.

[B]

I gotta place it on your feelings. Adam's been using. And then you kids.

[C]

And then you put your hand on top of it. No, no, I have not used it. I've not used it.

[B]

But have you seen. Have you seen the baby's stuff?

[C]

I've thought that this would be a great idea, but I've not used it.

[A]

It's a moment where he's holding the toy, and it's like a slow zoom.

[B]

In, and he's just, like, imagining the possibility. There's two.

[C]

There's a fork in the road possibilities.

[B]

And I was like, feel good.

[C]

I live in Southern California. I'm not cold enough for that. It's fine here. It's like 70 degrees. It's nice where you're at. It's negative 16.

[A]

Yeah, yeah.

[C]

You might need. You might need to. I might send you a little sleepy.

[B]

It's negative 16 volts or whatever.

[C]

Whatever the thing is called. It's not called little sleep. It's called something else. I'm gonna send you one of these so you can. So you can, you know, pleasure yourself so you could get through the time and so you can get. So you can, you know, not be so bored that you have to smoke cigarettes.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Friendship. That was the. One of the sweetest things you've ever done for me, Adam. Thank you.

[C]

Give me an address.

[B]

I like how we're going from preventing lung cancer to just rubbing something with some microwaves all over.

[A]

Also, if we can. Could. If we could get the official name of. Of that product. I think that's a good sponsor for the pod, and it's probably a huge pivot for them because they're probably in the market with. Just for baby toys. But dads can. Can use them too.

[B]

I promise you, if you go to the factory, they're making both. They're. They're already ahead of this.

[A]

Just two different boxes.

[B]

I Got a weird box. Christmas Twix the other day. That was like a snowman or something bit into it. Guess what? It wasn't just. Just bigger and wider. It was two. When you look at it, you can tell it's two Twix cookies packed into one.

[C]

They know what they're doing.

[A]

Repurposed.

[B]

Repurposed. Thank you. Upcycled.

[C]

Very shagadelic.

[A]

Good for you, though. How was the Twix?

[B]

It made me realize this Twix. A Twix is a Twix size for a reason.

[A]

Candy critique.

[B]

It was just a little too much, too big. It was just like you that I bit it in half. I'm gonna do it in two bites. That first half bite was just lit me up. The cause of diarrhea.

[C]

I think they're called warmies. I think I found them and I believe they're called warmies.

[B]

Might have a warmie. See what happens.

[C]

Warmies Junior Microwavable and weighted stuffed animals.

[A]

Oh, this is, you know, and then dark.

[B]

You could.

[C]

You can cuddle with it. It. You can cuddle with it. You can keep your hands nice and warm. You can keep your crotch warm. And then what you do is you place the wormy away from yourself. You turn his little head so he can't see what you're about to do. We don't want him watching.

[B]

Oh, you gotta turn his little head off.

[C]

And then you could do what you got to do in order to not be bored in smoke. Six. Got you. Got you, dude.

[A]

Dude. Thank you.

[C]

Not you, dude.

[A]

Honestly. That is so kind.

[B]

Brought to you by Warmies.

[C]

You know, I've never smoked a cigarette. Never.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Hey, don't start, man. It's a slippery slope. Don't start.

[C]

I like, Blake's talking like he's a grizzled vet. He smoked like 11 cigarettes.

[B]

Yeah. I also like how you are like, I've never smoked a cigarette. I just smoked weed every day for 10 years.

[C]

That's great for.

[B]

You smoke weed every day.

[A]

It does have healing properties. Absolutely.

[C]

Well, it does, but. And also, when you're smoking weed, you take like five, six hits, and then you're good. Then you smoked weed. When you smoke cigarettes, you smoke 10 cigarettes.

[A]

One after another, after another.

[B]

Never Good.

[A]

Not.

[B]

Have you chained yet? Have you lit one with another With a. With a bud? Do they call it a butt? Have you lit one with a butt?

[A]

No, I have not. That's a really good idea. That's a really good idea.

[C]

You're not cool, dude.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Is somebody there on set? That smokes. That made you go, can I get one of those? And then the next day, you showed up with a pack. Yeah.

[C]

Who inspired you? I know Blake isn't having this original. He. He must have been hyped by someone else.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

That's how he does it. It's got it. He's got to see someone else look cool. And then he's like, oh, I want to look cool. What happened there? A little bit.

[B]

No, tell us the truth.

[C]

Tell us the truth.

[B]

A little bit of that.

[C]

Tell us the truth.

[A]

What are those. What are those? Houses that are, like, you go to kind of get. Right.

[B]

Halfway house.

[C]

Not like halfway house.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, but. But. But. Re. Not. There's another word for it. Not rehab. It's a halfway house, but, like, they call it somebody, something else. But I think I walked past the house, and I was like, no, it's not. That's not what it says on the door. But the coolest dudes are always standing.

[B]

Outside of it, so.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

I don't know. Your hotel's next to a halfway house is what you're telling me. Yeah.

[C]

So you.

[A]

It is. It is.

[C]

So.

[A]

It is. I'm in a weird part of town.

[B]

You're halfway to the North Pole.

[A]

Water.

[C]

So you.

[A]

Yes.

[C]

Walked past a bunch of recovering drug addicts who are trying to get off methamphetamines. Uhhuh. And they're chain smoking cigarettes. And you're like, man, I want to be like those guys. I'm your friend, dude.

[A]

They were swagged out, Dude. They look tough.

[B]

I believe it. Yeah, I believe it.

[A]

They look tough.

[B]

I bet they look tough.

[C]

I bet they look tough with the scabs all over their faces because they were scratching themselves.

[A]

No, no, these guys were. They're. They're. They're back on the pack bath. They looked good.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

Look clean.

[B]

Can you smoke inside?

[A]

No. Come on.

[B]

Well, I'm just saying. So you're trying to get out of the cold, and you're like, well, let me start a thing that makes me go outside without a hot animal on my lap.

[A]

You have to. You. You can't always be indoor. Otherwise, in Winnipeg, you'll never go outside. You have to find a reason. You have to find a really good reason.

[C]

Like, I grew up in a place that's cold all winter long. The reason is you. You. You go. You heat your car, you run back inside the house. You run. You go heat your. You start your car, you turn the heat up, you run back inside. Then you go out to the heated Car. Then you drive your heated car wherever you're going. Then when you're outside is when you park your car and you have to walk into the place that you're going into.

[A]

This is the way.

[C]

And that's. That's the being outside.

[A]

But when do I get fresh air?

[C]

What are you talking about, fresh air?

[A]

I need to go outside.

[B]

No, you need fresh air. You got to go smoke and get fresh air.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Well, that's the catch 22, that is. I gotta get fresh air.

[B]

Catch me outside.

[A]

But, you know, I gotta stay warm. It's really hard. It's hard out here.

[C]

Yeah. Like you're looking at as a Californian.

[A]

I know. It's all I know.

[C]

In the winter, there's no fresh air.

[A]

Ah, but that's. It's so crispy. I love it.

[B]

Dude, I was just telling my kids this the other day during swimming season in high school, because, like, it's a Midwest school, so first of all, it's all inside. It's none of this California lockers outside Bayside High type shit.

[C]

Yeah, that's wild.

[B]

It's all inside. So during swimming season, you go to school before six, when it's still dark out, you go to swim practice. You go right into school. You're inside the whole day for school, you go straight to swim practice. After school, when you leave swim practice, it's dark again. You just don't see light for months. It's been months.

[A]

That's.

[B]

That's.

[A]

That's the life I'm living right now.

[B]

Vampire.

[A]

That's the life I'm living right now. It's very much. I. I don't.

[B]

Skin white.

[A]

I see no sun.

[C]

Well, that's when we were shooting. Game over, man.

[A]

Look at me, I'm pink. Look at me.

[C]

Yeah, you're translucent. Well, when we were shooting Game over, man, we would go to work before the sun was up. We worked inside an old ice cream factory.

[B]

Right.

[C]

So it was so cold outside, which then made it even colder inside. It's a place that was built to keep things frozen, Right?

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

And then when we would leave, it was dark again and wet and wet.

[A]

It's a fucking trip.

[B]

I don't like. That's worse for me if it's cold and wet. I'd rather it was just cold and snowy. That's kind of fun. Cold and wet sucks dick.

[A]

Yeah, I don't fuck with that.

[C]

Is it Winnipeg? Now, it's still early in the season, so it's probably still like beautiful, pristine white snow. Or has it Already turned to that. Like, like brown dark slush.

[B]

Slush?

[A]

No, no, it's. It's. It's like fret. It's fresh powder. Like every day. It snows every day. So it's like last night was very beautiful. It was like an icy snow coming down. It was like, it was gorgeous.

[B]

Dude, you gotta get some snowshoes, bro.

[A]

I got these vans. I got these vans.

[B]

Pretty sick, the off the wall joints. The like.

[A]

Well, they like have a. Like, they're like goretech or whatever.

[C]

I got.

[A]

Kick fucking ass, dude. Shout out Vance.

[B]

Oh man, I didn't. I didn't. Do I need to put in a mte? Well, something.

[A]

Yeah, they kind of. They kill it with these. I'm like hyped with them.

[C]

Yeah, those are cool.

[A]

I'm usually a sorrel boy.

[C]

Right.

[B]

Keep it real.

[A]

So rail.

[C]

Are you hanging with the cast? Is that who you're. You're. You've befriended? Are you going out? Are you kicking them with them? Is that.

[A]

Yeah, that's my crew. But I mean, again, like now our Fridays are starting to end at like 4am so like you have Saturday to kind of sleep. And then maybe we kick it Sunday and watch football and try to jam our faces with food. But other than that.

[B]

And is that hard when you stay in character? Is that hard for you?

[A]

Yeah, well, I'm smoking so many ciggies I can hardly eat. I don't have an appetite to suppress it.

[C]

So wait, Christopher Mint plus also smoking cigs with you? Is that your smoking buddy? Is that what's happening for sure? I know, I know. McLovin smoking a cig and you were like, oh, let me bum one. Trying to be cool.

[B]

It seems like he might smoke.

[C]

Dude, that's the meanest thing Durs has ever said.

[A]

No, he's the man.

[B]

What do you mean mean?

[C]

He seems like he might Smoke is such a mean thing to say about a person.

[B]

I don't think so. I think that it is. I think a lot of actors still smoke.

[A]

Yeah, they do.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're posers.

[A]

And again, it's interesting. That's their job. Their job is to be a poser?

[C]

Yes, to pose.

[B]

Like literally posing. They're like, yes, look cool.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I don't know, I just feel like he seems like a guy who you would see outside of a bar smoking and you'd go, that McLovin, he doesn't smoke.

[A]

He doesn't smoke. He doesn't. He doesn't smoke. Cities, dusty.

[B]

[A]

Oh, gosh, you guys. You know we're always watching our kids back. Yep, always. But what about their back sides?

[C]

Only when there's poop in it, not like a weird way.

[A]

Yeah, well, that's why there's little dude wipes. The flushable wipe for kids. They're free of chemical binders and alcohol so they get to the safest possible clean. And my little butt could use the clean. Trust me. Me, we got a lot going on these days. And you know, I'm just as stinky as my kids.

[A]

Care about is facing metastatic prostate cancer.

[B]

There's a treatment called pluvicto lutetium Lou177 vapivotide tetraxitan and it's changing the game. Plavicto isn't chemo. It's a different kind of treatment that targets PSMA positive cells, including prostate CANC cells. Plavicto can be used before chemotherapy for some people.

[A]

Here's the official word. Pluvicto is a prescription treatment used to treat adults with prostate specific membrane antigen positive metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer or PSMA positive MCRPC who have already been treated with hormone therapy and are considered appropriate to delay chemotherapy.

[B]

Now, now, let's talk safety. Pluvicto involves contact with radioactivity, which may increase the risk for cancer and cause fetal harm. Drink plenty of fluids, urinate often, use contraception and talk to your doctor about how to reduce the risk of exposing others to radiation during and after treatment. It can also cause low blood cell counts, kidney problems and infertility. Tell your doctor if you notice weakness, pale skin, shortness of breath, breath, bleeding or bruising more easily an infection or changes in urination.

[A]

Side effects include decreased blood cell counts, tiredness, dry mouth, nausea, appetite loss, joint or back pain and constipation.

[B]

Look, every day matters. And if you're in the fight or know someone who is, this is a conversation worth having. Ask your doctor about Plavicto because just like in football, every play, every decision, every second counts.

[C]

So so you're the only cast member that has decided to wear dress as if you're robbing a convenience store and smoke cigarettes. All right. Okay.

[A]

Well, I'M I'm the one who hangs out at the halfway house.

[C]

Yeah, right.

[A]

I don't really hang with the cast. I hang out on the stoop with the halfway boys, the real runaround crew. Murder peg in the building. Did you say we're out here?

[B]

Do they call it that?

[A]

Yes, sir. Come on.

[B]

Because one guy got shot like five years ago there.

[A]

No, dude, no, no, It's. It's kind of low key. Like the murder capital of Canada. Like, it's okay.

[B]

But, dude, we're from America, Jack.

[A]

I know. We're absolutely insane.

[B]

More people got killed in my high school than. How many. How many people are getting killed in Winnipeg a year?

[A]

I. I don't remember this. I think like 16 or something, but it's like a. It's a pretty big amount.

[B]

Adam, do you want to make up any numbers about anything or What?

[C]

I think 16 or something.

[A]

Oh, you're grilling me. You're grilling me.

[B]

And I'm just asking. And you could say I don't know if I'm right.

[A]

No, I. I refuse. That's not good radio. I gotta take a guess.

[B]

That's true. Adam just ordered a bunch of those hot lap things. This dude is so busy over here.

[C]

I'm like, no, I looked up murder peg and so. Murder peg, it was coined murder peg. It refers to Jeremy Skabicki serial murders involving the deaths of four Indigenous women in 2022. So, hey, that's just.

[A]

I didn't know.

[B]

Bogus.

[A]

I didn't know that situation.

[C]

So.

[A]

Yeah, that's so terrible. I thought it was about, like, gangs. There's like, way to be, like, kind.

[C]

Of a bummer, a downer. Dude. Murder.

[A]

It's really insensitive. Yeah, I. I thought it was more about, like, there are like, indigenous gangs out here like that, you know?

[B]

Well, here we go. Winnipeg saw 45 homicides.

[A]

Yeah, it's kind of. It's kind of a big number for Canada.

[B]

Manitoba have the highest provincial rate through the.

[A]

Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

43. That's 40 more than I thought it was.

[A]

Yeah, it's. It's real. It's real.

[B]

Then stop pointing the fingers. Canada.

[C]

This is on you. Canada.

[A]

Oh, God. Say no. But, hey, I don't want to. You know, I'm not trying to. I'm not here to call Winnipeg a dangerous place. It's very. It's very nice. I walk everywhere and you said.

[B]

But you said it was gangs.

[A]

There are.

[C]

Well, yeah, but. But when you're there, you've been there for like three weeks. And you're already dressing like you're robbing a convenience store and you're smoking cigs. I feel like this is a bad influence on my boy Blake.

[B]

Must be the culture.

[C]

Yeah, this is the culture. You're up there ripping cigs, hanging out at halfway houses.

[B]

If Winnipeg, if you're listening. Don't let my guy near the river Jazz, please.

[A]

It's all we know. It's all we know, baby. It's all we know.

[B]

God, stop. It's tripling down.

[A]

And fat boys. I'd be busting fat boys every day.

[C]

What even is that? What is busting a fat boy?

[B]

Is that like a warmy? What is that?

[C]

Yeah, if it's not putting a warmie on your lap and jerking off afterwards. I don't want to hear it.

[A]

Fat boys are chili burgers. But, dude, there's this place here, you guys, I'm not even kidding on some guy Fieri. BJ's driving. BJ's has. It's probably one of the top five burgers I've ever had in my life. This chili burger. Absolutely.

[C]

Do tell.

[A]

No, I know.

[C]

Okay?

[A]

I know.

[B]

I'm trying to be understanding.

[A]

Burger. You hear chili burger, I hear chili burger.

[B]

And I go, no, thanks.

[A]

You say Tommy's. You're like. It's like. It's just going to be a sloppy. The chili's the only thing you taste. It's different, man. It's like. The chili isn't sloppy. It's almost like be. It just makes the burger more beefier. And the lettuce is all shredded and delicious. It is so good.

[B]

You bring me one back.

[C]

Okay, so Vijay's is just a drive in, like, little hut.

[A]

It is literally a hut where these old women forge the most beautiful burgers you will ever sink your teeth into.

[B]

Okay, I don't like how you said women, but. Yeah, that sounds good.

[C]

Yeah, you said just how you brought it up.

[B]

Yeah, you said old women.

[A]

Women, dude. They are like these gnarled burger witches. They are.

[B]

Stop.

[C]

Okay, all right.

[A]

They are. It's like a coven of meat slinging wizard women, dude.

[B]

Are they trying to fatten you up and put you in the oven? What's happening? It's like breadcrumbs on the way in.

[A]

Yeah, like, they get you in real quick. They get you out real quick. It feels like Hansel and Gretel. I'm telling you, this place is legendary, dude. It's off the hook, dude.

[C]

Dude, I like it. And I love your love of Winnipeg so much. Are you gonna move There. Are you thinking about moving the family.

[B]

Or at least get property? Do you have to get property?

[A]

I've been looking some places.

[C]

Well, whenever I'm. Literally whenever I shoot anywhere, there's yet to be a place that I've shot a thing at. If I'm there for more than, like, two weeks, I'm like, I should probably.

[B]

Get a spot here, hunker down.

[C]

But I've never shot anywhere as shitty as Winnipeg, so.

[A]

That's true. Dude, there's a charm. There's a charm. I don't know if. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if I could do it. It's a long winter out here.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

I don't know. I don't know if the kids could handle it, to be honest.

[B]

So you don't. So you don't believe in your children?

[C]

Are there children there or.

[A]

When I. When you see children out and about, at least me, I get super pumped. I'm like, yes. These are some fucking survivors out here, dude.

[B]

Stay in school.

[A]

Keep on keeping on kids.

[C]

Why?

[B]

I mean, dude, isn't it amazing how it's always that guy who has that message who's like, I don't do drugs. And you're like, obviously, yeah, toasty. A message received.

[C]

Well, he's like, don't be like me.

[A]

Don't be like me.

[B]

Somebody help me.

[C]

I made all the wrong decisions. And Blake takes, like. He sees that same guy, and at almost 42 years old, he's like, I'm gonna be like him.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

There goes my.

[B]

That's so cool. You have one of two different shoes. That's a. I'm gonna take that style. Found these weeks apart. No, no, but I like the way it looks. I'm gonna do that.

[C]

Wait, are cigarettes back? Wait, is methamphetamine back?

[B]

Oh, my God, dude.

[A]

I will say I'm. I'm, like, buying a lot of, like, workwear, too. Like, high vis stuff. So I love hyped. I'm gonna come home. Neon orange, yellow.

[B]

What is the brand up there for?

[A]

Workwear, dude. You want to hear it? You want me to put you on?

[C]

Yeah, that's why you asked.

[A]

I think that's just my whole. My whole closet is about to be tough.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Love it. Great.

[A]

Tough duck, bro. All in.

[C]

I'm going all in. So work where. So you're. You like to play pretend and play dress up as if you're a working man? Yeah.

[B]

Let me feel your hands. These are bitch hands. Yeah.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Blake, a guy who's never done, like, A day of hard labor in his life. You're dressing up as if you're a, a working man now.

[B]

Man of the people.

[A]

I, I, I look like a poor su man.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, but you've never had.

[B]

So what is the best, not the best out of work wear. What do we prefer here, guys?

[A]

Well, I mean Carhartt is obviously leading the way with and are they Michigan car the I think they are.

[B]

And then Dickies is more west coast and of course.

[A]

No, Ben Davis is the og.

[B]

Ben Davis is work wear. I always just saw like skateboard wearing and I guess I didn't realize it was workwear.

[A]

No, it's a, it's a work wear. It's a work wear.

[C]

So this is, we're talking just fashion now?

[B]

No, we're talking work.

[A]

We're talking, yeah, we're talking workwear, brother. This isn't fashion. This is for going to work.

[B]

I like this stuff cuz whenever my.

[C]

Job is acting, dude, when you go.

[B]

To work, you go to a.

[A]

My job is looking.

[C]

You go to a place where they put makeup on you, they do your hair, someone brings you your omelette in the morning.

[A]

Oh, that's too hot.

[C]

They're like, would you, would, would you want an acai bowl?

[A]

Absolutely.

[C]

And then you have to be head to toe workwear. You so absolutely you have to show up in your tough duck workwear to the place where they're going to pamper you and treat you like a little prince. And then when you're put your work wear back on after you put on your acting clothes, whatever wardrobe that they have you in, then you put your tough tuck stuff back on and then you smoke cigarettes. Smoke cigarettes on the way home. All right, that's a wrap. It's been a hard day at work.

[A]

All we know, brother. It's all we know, brother.

[B]

Oh no. Hey, I think we've only got one more take out the of like he just lit up a cigarette. You always hear stories about like when some like actor in the 60s, like had his martini brought in, it was like production knew like he was done for the day.

[C]

Oh, was it? That was, that was like the rat guys is they, they literally only had eight hour work days, which I feel like most people. Yeah, that it's, most people are like, yeah, it's a eight hour workday. No, an actor's workday is 12 to 14 hours a day every, every day. So an eight hour day sounds crazy, but they would do it and at 5pm every day they would bring in their martinis the best Sinatra and those guys, it would bring in their martinis and that's when they knew it was the last day.

[B]

And they call it.

[A]

Is that why they call them?

[C]

Yeah, the last shot of the day was they're drinking their martinis. They're. We're done after this.

[A]

That's cool.

[B]

I don't know if this is true, but William Atherton, who played my father on Workaholics of Die Hard Ghostbusters Biodome fame.

[A]

The.

[B]

The man, he was saying that it, you know, because you talk with these old actors and it's just the greatest.

[C]

Like you hear the coolest stories.

[B]

And he's like, you know, it used to be eight hours, but then the union, like the transpo guys and all that kind of stuff, they wanted to kind of race to getting their hours for retirement packages. So they pushed for it to be 10 hours and then it became 10 hours somewhere in like the 70s or 80s. And then they pushed for it to be. Be 12. Cuz these dudes are just like, yo, I want to bang out 15 years and then just go retire to somewhere where I have a boat.

[A]

Mexico.

[B]

And I don't know if that's true, but like, eight hours sounds awesome.

[C]

Eight hours would be great. Yeah.

[A]

But also, would you. You. You wouldn't get anything done, right? Holy. No.

[B]

You work harder, you move faster, you get it done, you go home.

[C]

No, no, that's not true. What do you mean? I just did this. I just did this.

[B]

Yes, sir. Didn't you do like that? Why do people do French hours then? It's the same shit.

Yeah, that's how they did it in France. Yeah, there you go.

[B]

Survey said.

[A]

Because it's stupid. Because it's stupid.

[B]

Freedom prize.

[C]

You know, I just did it on, on gemstones where we would do 10 hour work days and, and would only take 30 minute lunches and, you know, yada, yada. It sucked. It sucked.

[B]

Tell me more.

[C]

I mean, it was great, like way to live life.

[B]

But what else are we doing?

[C]

A thing that usually should take four to five months took seven to eight months. So you're there, you're on location for another several months because you're not able to get everything done.

[A]

I'm with you, Adam. Like if we're out here. If we're doing it, fuck it. Let's just do it. Let's just grind.

[C]

It's different. It would be different if everything shot in la, where we all live and.

[A]

We go to our families.

[C]

You go home, you go to your families. But I'm like, I'm not trying to be on location for seven or eight months.

[A]

Yeah. And I'm like, you know, we rap early. I'm just. I'm just back in the streets.

[C]

Yeah. Blake's just back six.

[B]

I'm just.

[A]

I'm just back in work where I'm. I'm working harder offset than on. You know what I mean, brother?

Oh, by the way, their size game. Small, medium, large, extra large, 2xl, 3xl, 4xl, 5xl. And then they have something called MT. I don't even know what that is. Is then LT XLT, then 2xlt.

[B]

It's long, tall, I believe.

[C]

3Xlt.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

I mean, those are some sizes.

[B]

I think it's long and tall. Ain't nobody that big.

[A]

I went to go buy a jacket, but the. Even the large is. Is larger than a normal large.

[B]

So that's how they have to size it for workwear.

[A]

Yeah. There was no. There was no fit in me.

[B]

I'm a medium car heart.

[C]

Yeah. So if I were to get a medium, would that be too big for me? Should I go small on a tuff duff?

[A]

I don't know.

[B]

How many energy drinks are we doing here?

[C]

I mean, I don't know, because, you know, there's parts of me that's not that small. Although I'm. I'm not looking that, Jack.
