Overview

In this episode of “This Is Important,” the crew dives into stories from their respective Fourth of July celebrations and the bizarre Newport Beach "TikTok Takeover" riot, reflecting on generational changes in partying, body compliments, and trends in high school fashion. The conversation then meanders through nostalgic topics like Pokemon, anime conventions, and the value of the compliment "you look jacked." In classic TII fashion, the guys keep things light and self-deprecating, riffing on each other's habits, personal insecurities, and misadventures, leading to a recurring joke about “thigh gaps.” The episode closes with a group resolution: they need a company retreat—preferably marlin fishing.

[Durst]

Right.

[Chloe]

Kids just come and just. While out there was booty shaking.

[Adam]

I'm going to come.

[Durst]

This is reminiscent of, like, Facebook parties from 10, 15 years ago. Remember when that happened? It was like. Apparently it's called a Facebook party.

[Adam]

Facebook.

[Durst]

And it was just like, someone would put a flyer out and 20,000 kids would show up.

[Chloe]

That's what happened with that kid in Australia who just.

[Adam]

Yeah. Legendary Rip.

[Durst]

He has to be dead. Right?

[Chloe]

And then they did. It was basically Project X. Yeah, that's what this looked like. There was tens of thousands of people and then thousands of kids. Thousands and thousands.

[Durst]

And just blasting kid cudy.

[Adam]

Youngsters. Every.

[Chloe]

Youngsters just shaking their butts.

[Durst]

Is that. Is that the Project X trailer song?

[Adam]

I Just want to party?

[Chloe]

Wasn't it dig a bit. Little bit. Go it up.

[Adam]

Yeah. It was either that or mtm.

[Durst]

Is that not kid cutting?

[Adam]

It was one or the other.

[Chloe]

It is.

[Adam]

You were right. Ders watches that trailer every night before he goes to sleep.

[Durst]

I have to. I go, kids. These guys are cool.

[Chloe]

Which, by the way, that was a fun. That was a fun movie. I don't really remember what happened other than, like, a blowtorch.

[Durst]

I never saw it.

[Adam]

I remember the car going in the pool. Right.

[Durst]

I never saw it. I lived it.

[Adam]

Yeah, bro. You're such a legend, dude.

[Durst]

Yeah, I'm drunk now, dude.

[Chloe]

My party was so lame. It was just. I mean, it was awesome, but it was just like a bunch of kids.

[Durst]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

And we had a bounce house, and like, we watch fireworks like little true children. Two children. Yeah, like toddlers. My child was one of them.

[Adam]

That's cool.

[Chloe]

And at a bounce house, you know? And then. And then we raped.

[Durst]

Come on. What are we talking about?

[Chloe]

It was very fun.

[Durst]

Bounce houses are sick.

[Adam]

You didn't get in the bounce house later. The adults didn't do a little session.

[Chloe]

Yeah, there's a little bounce house.

[Durst]

Ankle. Ankle.

[Adam]

Ribs.

[Chloe]

But the. The takeover. They. They destroyed our grocery store. Sure, there was. There was. And then. I love all the. The, like, racially coded conversations I had the next day. At the gym where just people. Everyone. Everyone at the gym was going, well, they're not from Newport. I'll say that.

[Durst]

I saw. I saw a dude on the news. I saw a dude on the news say the same.

[Chloe]

They're not from here.

[Adam]

Which means, if you know what I

[Durst]

mean, I'm like, this is checking driver's license.

[Adam]

Yeah, yeah, this is.

[Chloe]

If you understand what I'm saying.

[Adam]

They're not from.

[Chloe]

Not from here.

[Durst]

They might be from Old Port, not the Newport.

[Adam]

Just check their zip codes. They're not from Newport.

[Durst]

A little too new.

[Adam]

Just saying.

[Chloe]

I was like, these kids did not come prepared for the beach. Every kid that I saw on the news or on any video was just wearing black jeans.

[Durst]

None of them had sunblock.

[Adam]

Wait, what? So these were like. This was like a tiktoker army. Were they. Were they getting together to do one big dance or they were just coming together to.

[Durst]

Yeah, Blake, Adam, tell them about the

[Chloe]

big dance they came to do. This is a Bollywood TikTok.

[Adam]

Isn't that what tiktokers do? They fudgeing dance, right?

[Chloe]

Oh, dude, I've never seen you look so old and be sold. Yeah, you're so old.

[Adam]

Come on, bro. What else is TikTok for other than sick ass dances?

[Durst]

Although he's sitting like a youngster with his leg up.

[Adam]

That's not my leg. That ain't my leg, brother. Dude.

[Durst]

Hey, Blake. Dude, it is. It is your leg.

[Adam]

That is my thought.

[Durst]

Whoa.

[Chloe]

Hey, bro, we've. Hey, we've seen it, and it is.

[Adam]

That ain't my. Wait. And.

[Durst]

And I'm really not actually sure what the joke was. It is your leg.

[Chloe]

Yeah, I think the joke was that it's his dick. And we've seen it.

[Adam]

It's usually what the punchline to my joke is. That's usually.

[Chloe]

No, I think the takeover was just to come and just. Do not take over a town and be like. Because there was literally thousands.

[Adam]

Like a flash mob.

[Durst]

Stop.

[Chloe]

But there's no dancing.

[Announcer]

Yeah, do not come.

[Durst]

This dude wants to see, like, people on the escalator going like, there's no dancing.

[Adam]

There's.

[Chloe]

There's looting.

[Adam]

Looting.

[Chloe]

There's looting. That's all they did. They just, like, destroyed our grocery store.

[Adam]

They came obviously not from Newport to Newport to loot.

[Chloe]

They're not from here.

[Adam]

They came to loot.

[Durst]

Give me the loot.

[Chloe]

I don't know if that's what they came. I don't know. I wasn't part of the Tick Tock takeover. But okay, they came. They Saw they looted.

[Adam]

Wow.

[Chloe]

And the amount of shaking their asses on cars. People were disgusted by this. But I'm like, that's kind of fun.

[Adam]

Like that's kind of.

[Durst]

That's what you let. But that's the problem is that like you let that happen and then that works all the dudes up into a frenzy and they're like, I'm not going to.

[Chloe]

They got to go rip open a bag of Lays.

[Durst]

Baked Lays.

[Chloe]

Then they got to take a watermelon and smash it.

[Durst]

I guess that's what it was. It was a lot of watermelons got tossed. Cuz they keep those out front in like the corral, right?

[Chloe]

They keep them out front. Yeah. And then just like all the Pepsi cans were just strewn about and you know, the windows were smashed.

[Adam]

Not our Pepsis.

[Chloe]

Newport is. Is very funny though. It was clean before. It was like before 10am the windows were replaced and the. And everything was cleaned up.

[Durst]

Right.

[Chloe]

I went to the gym the next day. You could not tell.

[Durst]

Right. And this is what the whites also did in Tulsa. Sure.

[Chloe]

God, sure.

[Durst]

They.

[Adam]

We.

[Durst]

We've been doing this for a long time.

[Announcer]

Oh my.

[Durst]

This is how they erase history.

[Chloe]

If. If whites are good whites at anything.

[Adam]

It's cleaning up.

[Chloe]

It's just cleaning up after a huge party.

[Durst]

Erasing history.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Durst]

It's like nothing happened here. Oh my God. Nothing happened here.

[Adam]

I like that.

[Chloe]

Yeah. So it's crazy. It was. It was wild. But then the funniest thing was that watching like these blonde women make their like inspirational videos, right? About how we have to do better. This is not our new port. This is our Newport. And then the videos is just like them out on their little Duffy boats and the American flags just flapping in the wind. And you're like, this is our Newport. And you're like, sounds hella boring.

[Durst]

And where do you see these? This is on Truth Social. Or where is this?

[Chloe]

It's just my insight. I think it's my algorithm because I live down here. So you see this shit? And you are from New York. No one died? No, no one was even hurt. It wasn't like a big. It was just like watermelons got smashed. And I do think windows got broken.

[Durst]

Dozens of people went to the hospital.

[Chloe]

Oh, I missed it.

[Durst]

Yeah. Yeah, you're right. You're right. I don't think anybody died. But there were dozens of people that went.

[Adam]

You can go to the hospital.

[Chloe]

Those were people. Those were people just fighting.

[Durst]

And several went to like, what they say it was urgent cares or not urgent Care, but, like, they. You know, like, they, like, rate things when you get into the E.R.

[Chloe]

it's like, this one's trauma units.

[Durst]

Yes.

[Chloe]

Okay, so that sucks. They did arrest over 400 people, which is a lot.

[Adam]

That's a lot.

[Durst]

How do you even have that many handcuffs? A lot. The horses were out.

[Chloe]

Yeah. So you do know about this? You do know about.

You need another four inches if the. If your dude has a thigh gap.

[Chloe]

Does Blake have a thigh gap? Blake, do you have a thigh gap?

[Adam]

Oh, my God. I don't.

[Chloe]

You got a thigh guy?

[Adam]

I don't know.

[Chloe]

Let's see it.

[Adam]

I think probably.

[Chloe]

Let's see it.

[Adam]

How do I do this?

[Chloe]

Let's see it. I think you gotta whip it out.

[Durst]

I think if this is how you

[Chloe]

die, I think so.

[Durst]

Yeah. Yeah, he's got it.

[Adam]

You kinda do.

[Chloe]

You kind of do. Dude, that's so embarrassing that you have to be really embarrassed.

[Adam]

Why? You want my thighs to touch? You want my thighs?

[Chloe]

I would say, yes. All men's thighs should touch the eyes.

[Durst]

I. Yeah, I remember when mine touched for the first time, and it was real shocker.

[Chloe]

Momentous occasion.

[Durst]

It was a shocker. I remember we would seize the one guy who didn't have a thigh gap on the team at Wisconsin. We're like, dude, your legs don't separate. And he'd be like. He was kind of like a more like, stocky, muscular dude. But he was the only guy on the team whose thighs, like, touched. And we're like, what's happening there? You just have, like, one leg.

[Chloe]

That's how my legs look. My legs. My legs separate at the knees.

[Durst]

At your neck.

[Adam]

That's crazy, bro.

[Chloe]

You got it straight down.

[Adam]

It feels like your whole upper body is just like, fupa into, like, leg fupa. Like, what's going on here? How.

[Chloe]

There's no.

[Adam]

I.

[Durst]

You know what? What you're describing is a lot of men that we're talking to, and if you used to look like that and now you don't. Ladies, ladies.

[Chloe]

And by the way, even if it's your guy, slightly better. Let him know. Let him know. Yeah, some up. Put a little gas in that tank. Fourth of July, baby. We need an explosion.

[Durst]

Can we get on the, like, looks maxing train here and just toot. Toot for a second, because, look, I'd love to. We can all do better. I was trying to do better this morning. I'm in my. I'm in my garage.

[Chloe]

I'm trying.

[Durst]

Yep, I'm putting it out there.

[Chloe]

I went to the gym. I went to the gym this morning, Blake.

[Adam]

I rode the bike.

[Durst]

Okay.

[Adam]

Look at that.

[Durst]

How's that thigh gap? You. You get a little rash there from the thighs or.

[Adam]

No, actually, my. Like, all of my skin started to bubble up because I think I'm sunburned. And then the sweat was, like, under the dead skin. So when I was done, I just had all these bubbles.

[Chloe]

That's summertime fun right there.

[Durst]

And if you're listening, ladies, and your

[Chloe]

boy pre cancer has some bubble cancer.

[Adam]

Yeah, let them know, man. Like, I'm still popping some of them. It's pretty cool.

[Durst]

And does water come out?

[Adam]

Yeah, it's really cool.

[Chloe]

And then you.

[Durst]

That's how you hydrate. That's how cavemen used to hydrate I'm

[Adam]

getting torched over here.

[Chloe]

How was your guys' fourth of July?

[Adam]

It was awesome this year.

[Durst]

Low key, like a Norse.

[Adam]

A bunch of family bunch.

[Chloe]

Mine was really fun. I got drunker points then I thought I was going to towards the end of the night.

[Durst]

Getting radical.

[Adam]

Yeah, it happens.

[Durst]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

You got a rep. Yeah, I didn't have to. It was mostly with families and a bunch of little kids.

[Durst]

But you can appreciate Blake's mentality. You gotta.

[Adam]

Hey, hey. It was 250. You gotta show up.

[Chloe]

But I did. The next day, I felt like Blake. I was like, a little embarrassed because at the very end of the night, I was like, I kind of. It was a brownout situation where I remember some things and I don't remember.

[Durst]

Are you talking about the riots? That's cod.

[Chloe]

But it was okay. They're not from here.

[Durst]

I don't know if I like that, but go ahead.

[Chloe]

And. And I didn't quite. So I was a little embarrassed. And then I was. Then I thought, like, what would Blake do? And he would just own it, and he would just be like, you got to rep it.

[Durst]

You have a problem.

[Chloe]

So that's what I'm doing it. And that's what I'm doing right now. I'm repping it.

[Durst]

Oh, cool. Did you drink 25 beers for 250 years?

[Adam]

That's what I'm saying.

[Chloe]

No. We both, Chloe and I were bad hosts. We were having so much fun, and it was a great party and everybody was having a blast. That forgot to continue to re. Restock the beer. Oh.

[Adam]

Oh, yeah. You gotta. You gotta maintain a flow.

[Durst]

And what does that mean? Like putting him in the fridge or like dumping ice or like ordering more in the coolers?

[Chloe]

No, we had so much. We had so much beer.

[Durst]

Oh, dude. Montucky cold snacks.

[Adam]

You know, I. As much as I love that can, it's not a super recognizable beer. So a lot of people at my

[Chloe]

party, they don't grab it.

[Adam]

They reach for it. Cuz they didn't know what it.

[Durst]

You know how you do. You influence bud. You drink it. And then they see Blake Anderson, they go, oh, you know what? And ladies, if your man is. Is drinking a beer, a Montucky cold snack, let him know. Yeah, but you got to start it. You got to hand it already open. You open it and hand it to the key.

[Chloe]

I feel. And. And it. And we are. I don't even know if we're getting paid by Montucky gold snacks. I don't know if they're a Sponsor of the podcast, Are they? I don't.

[Durst]

I think they.

[Chloe]

They gave us a bunch of free beer. It's a good. It's a tasty beer. It's a tasty beer. It's a good. It's a drinkable beer. That's a Fourth of July beer. And the fact that we didn't resupply, that's on us. Yeah, but everyone was so drunk. We were drinking tequila. It was shot after shot of tequila,

[Durst]

as our forefathers imagined.

[Adam]

Yes.

[Durst]

Yes, sir.

[Chloe]

And that is how you don't re up the, the, the beer coolers.

[Adam]

Here's my thing. I had a great fourth of July, but I was coming.

[Durst]

We're. Everyone shut up. We're getting things.

[Chloe]

Shut up.

[Adam]

For the 250. You would think America would have fucking blown it out, but I was coming hot off of a Mexico win in the city of Santa Ana. And that party was so lit in the city that it made the fourth of July feel kind of weak. I think Mexico is the greatest partiers in the world. I don't think America has the title anymore.

[Durst]

Mexico is the greatest partiers in the world. Can't say I disagree.

[Chloe]

Well said.

[Adam]

Yes. Mexicans party the hardest.

[Chloe]

Yeah, I mean, I guess.

[Durst]

And what happened after the loss? What happened after the loss?

[Adam]

That was 250. That was such a big deal. And I just was like. It didn't feel. It didn't feel super special to me.

[Durst]

There was like a Honda, Toyota, Thon type shit. And that's it.

[Chloe]

Well, you should have came down to Newport beach and got in the pavilion's parking lot and it would have felt. You would have felt that same energy.

[Durst]

Adam, are you saying it would have felt Mexican? What do we.

[Adam]

I don't think.

[Durst]

Is this coded again?

[Adam]

Okay. They weren't quite from Newport. They might have been shipping in from Santa Ana. Santa Ana was so shipping in. Well, driving or. Yeah, maybe. Maybe they took a boat around. I don't know. Santa Ana was just absolutely on. Well, not literal fire, but it was crazy.

[Chloe]

Your videos were very fun seeming.

[Durst]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Adam]

I've never experienced anything like that.

[Chloe]

You watched them win a soccer match?

[Adam]

Yes.

[Chloe]

A big one apparently.

[Adam]

Yes.

[Chloe]

And in Santa Ana, which is in Orange county, but it is sort of the. The Mexican hub of Orange County.

[Adam]

Yeah, it's a little bit of the barrio.

[Chloe]

Uh huh. And people there had a blast. And your videos looked incredible and it seemed like a party.

[Durst]

I should have been shout out to tk.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Durst]

In the back of a stranger's pickup truck.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Durst]

Back of A stranger's truck.

[Adam]

So after these games, after Mexico would win, like, basically, they completely shut the streets down. And people drive their trucks or cars down these streets that are flooded with people. And they expect you to just rock their trucks.

[Chloe]

Rock.

[Adam]

And, like, try to tip.

[Durst]

I'm like, dude, I'm watching this truck. It show.

[Chloe]

The streets are shut down, but these people are allowed to drive down them.

[Adam]

They're crawling. They're, like, slowly crawling down the street.

[Durst]

Adam is in shock because in Newport, they don't let that slide. They get the horses out.

[Adam]

No. And it's not. It's not at all police sanctioned. It's not legally shut down, Adam. Get this. It's just shut down by the people, for the people. Sure. And it's like that. But it. You know, nobody's getting hurt. At least at that one. I know people did, I think, die in Mexico at the celebration.

[Durst]

Okay.

[Adam]

In Santa Ana.

[Durst]

It legends, by the way.

[Chloe]

Yeah.

[Adam]

It was so fun. I mean, we've done a lot of crazy stuff in our lives. I think that was the craziest celebration I've ever been to.

[Chloe]

Really?

[Durst]

Blake, did you make it to the anime. Did you make it to the Anime Riot as well, or.

[Adam]

No, I'm. I'm. I'm unfamiliar with that one.

[Chloe]

What is an Anime Riot? What is this?

[Durst]

I guess there was, like, an anime convention at the LA Convention center that went off the best and people got, like, trampled, and it was crazy.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

Blake, you were there. I'm sure I.

[Adam]

No comment.

[Chloe]

Blake was in his furry costume. Just.

[Adam]

It's just me with, like, cool contacts on, pink wig. Hell yeah, dude. I wish I was at that.

[Durst]

Wouldn't need much else.

[Adam]

That would be sweet.

[Chloe]

You know those anime conventions, they're so, like, kind of dorky, right? Like a little. A little dorky, but their own culture, their own thing. But imagine, like, how awesome it probably is to, like, meet a super hot Sailor Moon chick and she's dressed as Sailor Moon, and you're like, I guess, do I have sex with Sailor Moon? And you have sex with Sailor Moon?

[Adam]

Dude, I think we literally covered this, like, last episode.

[Chloe]

No way.

[Adam]

You're still thinking about it.

[Chloe]

Not last episode, Adam.

[Durst]

You circle back to the ninth thing you talk about. We finally got back to Sailor Moon. Anime cosplay. Fuck.

[Adam]

Okay, if you meet your anime wife at an Anime Con, do. Is the wedding also anime themed?

[Durst]

Stop.

[Adam]

Do you tell everybody to pull up full costume? You already know you have to, right?

[Chloe]

Yeah, I feel like most do, but you don't have to you could have your grandmother respect you and just have a regular wedding.

[Adam]

But yeah, no, you gotta dress grandma up like Death Note.

[Durst]

Grandma looks like a Ghibli Studios grandma with like a big ass nose and like a.

[Adam]

Come on, she. She gotta be Chainsaw Man Brother, get in here. Let's see this. I want Crunchyroll in the building.

[Durst]

Crunchyroll. Oh, dude, that's what everyone. The past apps are just Crunchyrolls.

[Adam]

No, Crunchyroll rocks.

[Durst]

Yeah, it. It's. I. As we. As we.

[Chloe]

As we proceed.

[Durst]

Who gre. Mono culture. Goodbye. Watch these. What used to be kind of niche things explode where, like, everyone can now find each other. It's kind of amazing to be like, yo, all these people are here into anime, trampling each other and going.

[Chloe]

The one that is, like, pretty astounding to me is Pokemon. Pokemon. When we. When we were growing up, it wasn't that big of a thing.

[Adam]

It never goes away.

[Chloe]

And only kind of. The nerdier kids. Blake, were into it.

[Durst]

Adam, you're on a roll, huh?

[Adam]

Saw the movie in the theater. I saw the movie in the theater.

[Chloe]

Yeah, that's right.

[Adam]

Saw Mew Mew and Mewtwo. That's right.

[Chloe]

That's right.

[Durst]

The Detective Pokemon or Detective Pikachu.

[Adam]

No, that's later. That was a. I also saw that in the theater. Of course.

[Durst]

Go ahead.

[Chloe]

Yes, but it wasn't. It wasn't a mainstream thing, and it was very much a subculture. And then now it's like everyone is. Is into it. And I guess it's because it blew up when they were children. And so when you're kids, you just like what you like, no matter if it's nerdy or not nerdy or cool or not cool. And then now they're. They're older and they think it's cool, and then they spend hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars on Pokemon cards.

[Adam]

It just has a lot of ways of. Of hitting the market. Like a. You could have got in from watching the TV show. That's kind of where it started. Then it started to be the card game, which has, like, has such a value attached to it now. Then there was the. Remember when the phone game. Like, what was the one where people were going into the park, like, finding Pokemon and, like, they were Pokemon Go.

[Chloe]

Yeah, I remember we were shooting a movie. We were shooting when we first met, and I'm. I'm shooting this movie in the park in New Orleans, and people are just in the middle of our scene, just with phones in the background, like, finding Pokemon Go.

[Durst]

Yeah, no, sir, I don't.

[Chloe]

And we, we like had to fully move where we were shooting the scene because just too many dorks.

[Adam]

Dorks, wandering dorks, remember? Then people like Pokemon, people start to get hip to it and they'd know that like people like little dorks would be roaming the parks looking for Pokemon.

[Durst]

So then, by the way, running.

[Adam]

Well then people started to like rob and jump these dorks who are in parks at night because they. Oh, that's searching for rare Pokemon.

[Chloe]

So they would know where the rare Pokemon were. They would hide there. They would wait for them to just come in the park with their phones out.

[Adam]

Give me your bro. No, no. My Weedle.

[Chloe]

I believe that happening. I believe that that happened.

[Durst]

And what are the even stealing? Just the phone.

[Chloe]

Just the phone.

[Adam]

Yeah. Just taking their Pokemon

[Chloe]

and no shots fired against Pokem. Sure. Maybe I would have been into it.

[Durst]

Call them all dorks.

[Adam]

I love Pokemon.

[Chloe]

Maybe I would have been into it if I had dork. Your friends like Blake when I was a kid.

[Adam]

Fair enough.

[Chloe]

And then he could have gotten me into it. But my friends, instead of a bunch

[Durst]

of baseball wrestling, beer drinking, cool guys.

[Chloe]

Yeah.

[Adam]

I mean, Pokemon arguably has more value to the cards.

[Chloe]

Hard hair, I think. Yes. My friends just had hard hair and played baseball. So

[Adam]

that's cool. That's cool.

[Chloe]

Yeah, it's a different kind of dork. It's a sport dork.

[Durst]

Was Kyle the only one of your friends who had hard hair Blaze?

[Adam]

Yeah, yeah, he was the hard haired friend. He was the only one that was.

[Chloe]

He was trying to walk the line.

[Adam]

He was trying to.

[Chloe]

He was trying to walk the line with, with the hard hair crew and, and then your basement dwelling. Soft hairs.

[Announcer]

Yeah.

[Durst]

Hard hair at my school was not. It was either you were like a punk rock, whatever you wanted to do kind of thing or you had like a finger wave you were trying to keep.

[Adam]

Okay.

[Durst]

Other than that, hard hair was not prevalent.

[Adam]

Not a thing.

[Chloe]

Well, you're, you're several years older and, and different. You weren't a sub. You didn't go to like a suburban high school.

[Durst]

So I, I, Yeah, but like, yes and no. Like it's obviously a suburb of Chicago, but it's a, it's a little less like preppy. No, it's more preppy. Oh, more. It's more preppy than it is like mall culture. Y.

[Adam]

Well, what. See, in me, that was like the same thing. Like preppy was like Abercrombie, which was the mall, which was like, that was all tied in together also.

[Chloe]

To me.

[Durst]

And there definitely was Abercrombie, but it was more crunchy granola. Like.

[Adam]

Oh, yeah.

[Durst]

Outdoorsy type shit.

[Adam]

Like cargo shorts and Tivas cargo shorts

[Durst]

in, like, Patagonia and, like, North Face coats and, like, fanny packs.

[Adam]

Fanny packs were happening unironically.

[Durst]

Fanny packs were it. Yeah. That's where like, everybody had, like, their spray paint cans and fanny packs. And we're going tagging on the L's.

[Chloe]

We just. We were just getting into high school at the very end of the 90s.

[Adam]

The best.

[Chloe]

And really it was the early 2000s where we stepped into the full high school experience.

[Adam]

Right.

[Chloe]

Durst was wrapping it up. He was wrapping it up at the end of the 90s.

[Durst]

I was going.

[Chloe]

He was saying, Latero 5000. And that is the difference between us. And you can start at the penis, but I wish you wouldn't.

[Durst]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

Wow.

[Durst]

You don't have to.

[Adam]

I feel like at. Yeah. When we started to go, fanny packs would have been illegal because you could. You could hold weapons in there.

[Chloe]

Yes.

[Adam]

You had to really watch Columbine.

[Chloe]

That had happened.

[Durst]

That's our era, right? Yes, interesting.

[Chloe]

Yeah, that's our.

[Adam]

We discussed that with the Marilyn Mansoners, the beautiful people.

[Durst]

The crunchiness of my school, like, the cool thing for girls was like this, you know, Eagle Creek, they make, like, backpacks.

[Chloe]

I don't.

[Adam]

I can't say I'm familiar exactly.

[Durst]

It's not even. It's just kind of like a little jansport. It's like that, but just maybe a little more expensive, better made or whatever. Oh, and the. The go to was like an Eagle Creek, like, passport Purse Creek, like what a grandma would wear on a trip to Italy was what, like, the girl. The cool girls were rocking.

[Adam]

Hell, yeah. Okay, let's go.

[Durst]

Can't even understand it. And, like, a Nalgene bottle attached to it.

[Adam]

I feel like. Yeah, that has, like, evolved. Like, remember when it was really. I feel like some dudes still have it where it's like the. The. The big chest. The big chest fucking fanny pack that people rock.

[Durst]

Yeah, but that's. That's new. The is what they used to call that.

[Adam]

That shit had its day.

[Chloe]

Now does fashion. Do we think? Because if I looked at what the seniors look like when I was a freshman compared to what we looked like when we were seniors, it was a different. A very different style. I would say senior to senior, senior to senior.

[Durst]

When you. When you were a freshman, looking at the seniors and then comparing it to when you were a senior.

[Chloe]

Yeah, it was a different thing. Happening. Does it happen that quickly nowadays or is it faster because of the Internet?

[Durst]

I think it's faster.

[Adam]

I think that's a good question.

[Chloe]

And just like two years later, you're like, our pants had to be so tight again. And then your parents are like, oh, dude, we just bought you all these big ass pants. We can't now. We can't. We're gonna spend all this money to tighten your pants back up.

[Adam]

Yeah, but hold on. Hold on to the tight ones because it might come back in the car couple months. You have to keep going back and forth.

[Chloe]

Dude, I'm never going back. I'm ne. I'm. I'm. I'm not at the point that you. You see some of these, like, cool kids and their. Their is very baggy at this point, I can't go that far. But I like to go right down on these giant thighs that I have that do not separate.

[Adam]

There's no gap.

[Durst]

No gap until you hit the knees.

[Adam]

They are have one leg.

[Chloe]

Yes. They need room to break.

[Adam]

Breathe.

[Chloe]

Okay.

[Durst]

Merman.

[Chloe]

Yeah, right.

[Adam]

I.

[Durst]

And so what are we saying? You're wide leg. Are you like boys to men linens?

[Adam]

I think if Adam had his way, he would exist in linens at all times.

[Chloe]

I would love that.

[Adam]

You are. You are such a linen lover.

[Chloe]

I run a little hot.

[Durst]

I feel like if you want to let everyone know you're a local in Newport, you put on some wide leg. Boys to men linen.

[Adam]

Linens. No undies.

[Chloe]

Oh, my life.

I did this morning at the gym run into a woman from Real Housewives of Orange County.

[Adam]

Oh. I'm unfamiliar with the cast, but are you pretty legendary?

[Durst]

She just told you. She was like, I'm in entertainment also.

[Chloe]

Yes. And she was like, I am in Real Housewives of Orange County.

[Durst]

I'm like, oh, cool. And said, I'm a real husband of this gym and move over. I'm trying to get these dumbbells.

[Adam]

Okay, 69 dudes. What is that, like, the season that's happening right now? I have no clue about any housewife,

[Chloe]

so I. I don't know either. I was just thinking of, like, people on boats wearing linens and that. I'm like, you know that these.

[Adam]

It's the real house.

[Chloe]

These people wear linens.

[Adam]

Real Newport speaking codes.

[Durst]

They wear linens.

[Chloe]

Absolutely. Yeah. They. She let me know that I feel like they're not from around here. She didn't actually say that, but did you see. But there were other people that did say that multiple.

[Adam]

I feel like I need. I need to tap in with the housewives because people who watch it, like, absolutely love it. And nothing.

[Chloe]

I don't know if you need.

[Adam]

I bet it's entertaining. It's got to have some value.

[Chloe]

See, I know it is. I know it is. Because anytime I watch reality tv, if, like, Chloe's going down some kind of rabbit hole, every once in a while, I'll. I'll tap in with her.

[Adam]

All right.

[Chloe]

It's always a good time because you can just make fun of them. And it's. It's. You're. You don't really have to watch it that intensely. Right.

[Durst]

Good, then.

[Chloe]

But then when you start to go, like, really deep, I'm like, what are we doing? Shouldn't we watch something that is actually. That. They put some time and effort into Casablanca, and that is just a good. A good movie.

[Adam]

Dude, I tried to watch Casablanca. I put it on. It was. It was tough. It's. It's black and white.

[Durst]

These movies are slower.

[Adam]

Yeah, I really. I had trouble focusing following it.

[Chloe]

Because of your TikTok brain.

[Durst]

Yeah. Do you know why Housewives shows?

[Adam]

Because I had watched Spider Noir.

[Durst]

You're talking head to be. Like, when we fought just then, I was pissed.

[Adam]

I had just watched Spider Noir and I listened to this interview with Nicolas Cage, and he's quite a fascinating guy, but he kept talking about, like, he was drawing from, like, who's the main guy in Casablanca? Humphrey Bogart. I'm like, dude, I've never seen it. I should at least check it out.

[Durst]

Yeah.

[Adam]

And yeah, man, that movie sucks, dude. It's so boring.

[Durst]

I don't remember it sucking, but I know what you're saying.

[Chloe]

I don't know if I actually ever saw it.

[Adam]

Of course.

[Durst]

It just. They don't. They don't film the. The film language has changed dramatically. Editing has changed dramatically. They fucking hold on shots. You don't get as many, like, uptight, like, close shots on things. So, yeah, it's not as engaging. It doesn't do the work for you like we've made film do.

[Chloe]

Yeah, dude, the fact that his name is Humphrey. Yeah, that is such a hard name.

[Adam]

That's a dope name. That's a name that has a big dick attached to it.

[Durst]

Dude, you.

[Chloe]

If you have. If your name is Humphrey, you have a small dick, you're going by your middle name.

[Adam]

Change.

[Chloe]

You're going by middle name.

[Adam]

Change your goddamn name. God damn, Humphrey got to have a whale.

[Chloe]

Humphre Hoggin. Yeah, Humphrey's Hoggin.

[Adam]

That might be the biggest dick name you could have.

[Chloe]

And you know what's.

[Durst]

I mean, I like how Blake is so awake for this now. Oh, we're talking about dicks. Oh, hump.

[Adam]

You meet a dude named Humphrey. He is H again.

[Durst]

Yeah. You're not wrong. That's right. Blake. Yeah. Blake's out of the coma. Blake, if you ever get in an accident. I know what. I'm gonna get you out of the coma. Yeah, give me another.

[Adam]

Give me a dick.

[Durst]

How far away Hulk Hogan's penis went from his body, Blake.

[Adam]

Terry, Terry, Terry. Malia Humphrey is a Huge cop.

[Durst]

Remember how far as Dick went from his body? Blake, wake up, please.

[Announcer]

Dude.

[Chloe]

Well, Humphrey started in some bangers. You know how they put. They. They put like the known four, and then it's like the four things you're most known for. Yeah, it's Casablanca.

[Durst]

Let me guess.

[Adam]

Heard of it.

[Durst]

Treasure. Treasure, Treasure. The Sierra Madre.

[Chloe]

That is not in the top.

[Adam]

No.

[Durst]

Damn, that's a good bar. Check that one out. Maltese falcons up there, though.

[Chloe]

Nope, nope. It's Casablanca.

[Adam]

You want to give it another swing?

[Chloe]

You want to keep guessing or no?

[Adam]

Come on.

[Durst]

I don't know. I'm striking out.

[Chloe]

Yeah. Casablanca. The African Queen.

[Durst]

Sure. With that. Audrey Hepburn. No, not Audrey Hepburn. Katherine Hepburn.

[Chloe]

Yes, I think Katherine Hepburn.

[Adam]

Right?

[Chloe]

I think that's right. Yes, that's right.

[Durst]

All right.

[Chloe]

And wasn't Catherine's Hepburn's thing, like it wasn't her thing? Like she would, like, talk like this.

[Durst]

She got older and she sounded like this by the end of her days, and everyone could do an impression of her like.

[Chloe]

Like this?

[Durst]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

Yes, it's something like that. Then. Then a movie called to have and have not, and then a movie called In a Lonely Place. I feel. You know how they're just always redoing movies that don't need to be redone?

[Adam]

Sure.

[Durst]

RoboCop.

[Chloe]

Maybe we dig in the crates a little bit farther back, look at some Humphrey Bogart bangers.

[Adam]

Sure.

[Chloe]

I can pluck one of them out of some obscurity.

[Durst]

Well, a Star is Born. That's been done like five times, I guess. Like, it's. It's from the 30s, and they did it again in the 50s and the 70s. And then Taylor's oldest time tail is old as time.

[Adam]

Well, let's dust off. Custom.

[Durst]

I watched the Searchers the other day, John Wayne, and I was like, this could totally be redone as a miniseries.

[Chloe]

Let's do it.

[Durst]

Because it takes. It's a two hour movie.

[Adam]

It's a cowboy movie.

[Durst]

So much happens in this cowboy movie. So much happens in it. And it takes place over like 10 years or something like that. So I'm like, stretch it out. Use the new film language, guys.

[Adam]

I love a good western.

[Chloe]

What was the movie? Brewster's Millions. That movie had is like, there's four incarnations of that movie. And I didn't know that because Brewster's Millions was my favorite as a kid. I love.

[Adam]

Is that Richard Pryor.

[Durst]

Pryor and John Candy.

[Chloe]

Yes.

[Adam]

Richard Pryor and John Candy in one movie.

[Chloe]

Yes, sir.

[Adam]

Oh, my goats.

[Durst]

I remember it not working for Me?

[Adam]

Oh, God.

[Durst]

Like, boring.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

No, no, no, no.

[Adam]

Oh, you gotta watch.

[Durst]

What's the funny part?

[Chloe]

Boring ass.

[Durst]

What's the funny part?

[Chloe]

Well, the fact that a train runs through the outfield.

[Durst]

That's funny.

[Chloe]

Oh, that's hilarious, dude. Yeah. Off, off, off.

[Adam]

Oh, yeah.

[Durst]

I never.

[Adam]

Cracking up, cracking up.

[Chloe]

Well, dude. Well, Blake, have you ever seen it? Have you ever seen Brewster's Millions? I bet you'd like it more than Casablanca, you cinephile nerd.

[Adam]

No, you know what? I gotta give Casablanca. I only watched, like, 10 minutes. It probably gets good.

[Durst]

It's.

[Adam]

Dude, it's slack, but I was having a little trouble following it.

[Durst]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chloe]

You.

[Durst]

You have to put your phone down.

[Adam]

Yeah. No.

[Chloe]

So there's a Brewster's millions in the 1940s, but that's not the one I was talking about.

[Durst]

And is there a train in that one?

[Chloe]

There's no train.

[Adam]

We need Brewster's Billions now because it's just like, blank check now. You watch it. And you're like a million dollars. Come on. I couldn't buy you all that stuff.

[Chloe]

Couldn't give you all that stuff.

[Adam]

That's the problem with the economy.

[Durst]

I do like that. That's. Obviously, the first note is like, it has to be billions now.

[Chloe]

Without a doubt.

[Durst]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

And it's like cryptocurrency. It's like they. You know, they got billions of dollars

[Adam]

through Brewster's bitcoins, right?

[Chloe]

Through some kind of bitcoin situation.

[Adam]

Rooster's bitcoins and Humphreys. Huge.

[Chloe]

Yeah, yeah, Humphrey's huge cock.

[Durst]

Brewsters shitcoins.

[Adam]

I like that. Are bitcoins. Are bitcoins around or are they completely gone at this point?

[Durst]

No, I think bitcoin is the one. That's one or two. That's still.

[Chloe]

That's the one. But it did it. And I. I'm not very good at this stuff, but I know that it just dropped like a hundred GS.

[Announcer]

Please.

[Durst]

Just took a dive.

[Adam]

Thing sucks.

[Chloe]

So if you're gonna buy in now, Blake, this is the time.

[Durst]

It dropped a hundred G's.

[Adam]

I.

[Chloe]

That.

[Adam]

I. I never gave one.

[Chloe]

It dropped like something. Narnar banks.

[Adam]

I never gave one. About that stuff. It always seemed so.

[Chloe]

All of a sudden, Dursa's, like, power goes out of his house.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

Oh, his Internet.

[Adam]

It dropped. How much?

[Chloe]

You did go pretty heavy into bitcoin, right? Or into crypto.

[Durst]

No, I. I funded a coin. I funded a coin and the coin took off.

[Adam]

Oh.

[Durst]

And I was gonna be set for life. And the.

[Announcer]

The.

[Durst]

The coin dove. What Are you going to do.

[Chloe]

I'm pissed now. As coins do. And is there a possibility that that coin resurrects or once a coin dives, like, that is gone.

[Adam]

Is it gone or does it stick around?

[Durst]

I think when, like, I. When it started, it rocketed from, like, 20. I think 20 cents. And $2 is when I, like, put in my. My cash behind it. And then it got up to, like, $87.

[Adam]

Holy. No, that's really good.

[Durst]

Yeah. And then it didn't.

[Chloe]

Oh, my God.

[Adam]

So how come you didn't dip right then?

[Durst]

Well, because I. Contractually, you can't. You got to wait till vested.

[Adam]

Yeah, that seems like a con.

[Durst]

What are you gonna do?

[Chloe]

You have to wait. I remember talking with you about it, and you were, like, six months away from being able to take your money out if possible.

[Durst]

Yeah. Funny how that works. Interesting. Somebody help me. I think it's still out there. Now it's worth, like, 10 cents.

[Adam]

Damn.

[Chloe]

So he lost some money on that, but that's fine. What are you gonna do? So what. I mean, are you willing to talk about financials here or what? What would you have made at the highest?

[Durst]

Like, 50 million?

[Adam]

Jesus Christ.

[Chloe]

Oh, my.

[Adam]

That would have been insane.

[Durst]

Maybe it was either. It was maybe 40. It was definitely. It was definitely his 40. It might have been around 50. I can't remember, because it was so bananas where I was like.

[Adam]

That's when you were acting all different around us.

[Chloe]

Yeah, that's when he was.

[Adam]

Yeah, yeah.

[Durst]

That's when I started wearing ruby slippers and.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Durst]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

That's when we were like, hey, we should get this project going. You're like, maybe. I don't know.

[Durst]

I'm off the project.

[Chloe]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Adam]

I don't know.

[Durst]

Maybe that's when Dur started bringing around his own glass straw everywhere.

[Adam]

Yeah, I got it.

[Chloe]

Yeah.

[Adam]

All right.

[Chloe]

A little busy lounge.

[Adam]

Damn. That would have been cool if you just started spending money you didn't have.

[Chloe]

I remember you talking about. And we might have talked about this on the pod, but I remember you talking about building a basement.

[Durst]

Dude, literally last night. I'm on YouTube and I'm. I'm still. I still just want to do it.

[Adam]

It's weird. It's weird that you're so obsessed with basements. And the dude with the eyebrows who had the family is the basement guy.

[Announcer]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Such a Norwegian thing.

[Durst]

Look the picture up.

[Chloe]

Compared to this very scary guy that had the basement that with, like, 17 locked doors.

[Durst]

But, dude, this is a whole Midwest thing right now, is they're building basements that have like 25 foot ceilings with like half basketball courts underneath. Because for the winters now I don't need that because I live in California. You can do anything every day. But having a whole nother level to your house, it's what you would make in a, in a real estate climate like California to just add a basement, it's like you doubled your fucking worth of your house.

[Adam]

But in California, if we have a big earthquake, won't it just cave in and completely everybody just dies.

[Durst]

I don't understand this theory based on the skyscrapers downtown. Like what are we talking about, earthquakes?

[Chloe]

Well, then you would have to get it earthquake proofed of some kind. Okay, that would, that has to be crazy expensive.

[Adam]

How do you earthquake proof underground stuff? I know how they do buildings.

[Durst]

So let's, let's say I spend $500,000 making a basement.

[Chloe]

Okay, it would be more than that.

[Durst]

Let's say I spend a million. Okay, then I've just added a. But I've added a whole nother X amount of square feet to the house.

[Adam]

I get it, but it's a death trap. You're gonna die.

[Durst]

Yeah, but dude, not if it's earthquake proof.

[Adam]

How do you ear quick proof of basement? I don't know.

[Chloe]

It's worth it. There's going to be shuffleboard. There's going to be ping pong.

[Adam]

I will die for that. It's worth if a big one hits.

[Durst]

I'm just saying.

[Adam]

And I'm playing shuffleboard. I'm dying.

[Chloe]

No, I'm with you, D. If anything,

[Durst]

you make it like a bomb shelter. Thing is a bunker. Yeah, the whole thing's a bunker, right?

[Adam]

There's got to be a reason. There's got to be a reason.

[Durst]

18 doors.

[Chloe]

I was talking about that because I was like, I might in 10 years or whatever knock down my houses here and build like a nice, proper, nice big house.

[Durst]

Oh my God.

[Chloe]

Instead of like not that hole you live in, not these two boxes I live in. And I was like, dude, what about a basement? It's like, we can do a basement. We can actually. You can build you a pretty sick basement now. And I'm like, oh, cool. And they're like, it will cost at least a million dollars.

[Durst]

Yes, sir.

[Chloe]

So I don't know how much I love a base.

[Adam]

Yeah. I don't know. I don't see the allure of an underground room. That kind of already gives me the heebie jeebies.

[Chloe]

Yeah.

[Durst]

Didn't you grow up with a basement?

[Adam]

No, no.

[Chloe]

He's a California kid.

[Adam]

I grew up with basement dudes, but they were upstairs.

[Durst]

Dude. Wait a second.

[Adam]

You thought the basement dudes were actually in a basement?

[Durst]

Wait a second. Well, I thought you call them basement

[Adam]

dudes because they're so. Wait there.

[Durst]

None of your friends have basements?

[Chloe]

No, I thought. Wait, hang on, Blake. I thought it was like a. Because I had a friend that sort of lived on a hill.

[Adam]

Right. Basement is a metaphor.

[Chloe]

And so he. It was a split level where you walk in and there's a basement, but then there's a back door to the basement. So it's not a real basement. Right, that's what I thought.

[Adam]

No, this was upstairs in a two story house. That was our basement. It was just like a.

[Durst]

Where do you go when you guys were doing your drunk butt fucking during prom? Where are you doing this?

[Adam]

You have the one homie whose mom doesn't care. You do it wherever the hell you want.

[Durst]

So is she like upstairs in her bed watching TV and you guys are in the living room getting it on because the cops ain't coming till six.

[Adam]

Exactly.

[Durst]

But okay, but basements are unreal. Dude. Midwest. I'm standing up for Midwest right now.

[Chloe]

Yeah, basements are sick.

[Durst]

Basements are a whole nother level.

[Adam]

Yeah, literally, they gotta stink. Like, I don't like.

[Chloe]

Why do they stink? Like underground?

[Adam]

Underground stuff always has a must to it.

[Durst]

I don't disagree. But you gotta embrace that.

[Adam]

You're amongst the worms. You're amongst. Like, that's gross. I want to be above where there's fresh air.

[Durst]

You. So wait, you're gonna go on. You're gonna go on record saying you don't like worms?

[Adam]

I don't like to. No, I don't like worms. I'm not a big worm.

[Durst]

Wow. Okay. I guess he's never gonna go fishing with us. Adam.

[Chloe]

Okay, I guess we're not going.

[Adam]

Actually, I would really love to go fishing. I think we should go fish.

[Durst]

Prepare yourself.

[Chloe]

I mean, we talked about this off pod. But I'm saying the three of us take a company. See, we have a company together. And I think sometimes we forget that. And how often do we take a company retreat?

[Durst]

Retreats? Yeah, we.

[Chloe]

We don't take enough company retreats.

[Adam]

We should have a once a year retreat work. We should get T shirts made.

[Durst]

And while we're gone, each of our homes basements are being built when we get back, the basement's done.

[Chloe]

That's fine. That'd be great.

[Adam]

And for that reason, I'm out.

[Chloe]

Oh, and for that reason, I'M in. But no, we have to go. We have to go to Catalina. That's what I'm saying.

[Adam]

I would love to. I would love. I think the fishing's really good at this time.

[Chloe]

I think it's great.

[Adam]

It's prime time to fish.

[Chloe]

Great. We can go marlin fishing.

[Durst]

Blake, I need more information.

C mintmobile.com Come let's talk about a condition many people haven't heard of, and it turns out it's more common than you'd think. Peyronie's disease, or PD for short. PD can happen when scar tissue builds up under the skin of the penis.

[Durst]

This can cause a curve with a bump during an erection and for some men lead to pain during intimacy and may impact mental health. It may also lead to anger and frustration, depression, lowered self esteem and even withdrawal from sexual activity and physical intimacy. Because of this, some men could feel embarrassed or reluctant to talk about pd.

[Adam]

The actual cause of PD isn't always known. In some cases it may be linked to a minor injury or repeated injuries during sex or other physical activity. The good news is PD is treatable. If you notice a curve with a bump, a trusted urology specialist can help diagnose it and walk you through your options, including non surgical treatment.

talkaboutpd.com did you learn tuna were huge at a young age? Or did you learn this in the last like three years.

[Adam]

Yeah, like the. From the reality shows.

[Durst]

They're like the size of a car.

[Chloe]

Well, not all of them.

[Adam]

It's entire. Saying how big they get. Some of them are huge.

[Durst]

It's crazy.

[Chloe]

Some of them get.

[Durst]

But did. When did you know that? When did you learn that they got huge?

[Adam]

Maybe 10 years ago.

[Durst]

Okay. Okay.

[Adam]

10 years.

[Durst]

Adam really know you go? Adam, he said 10 go.

[Chloe]

I would say maybe you go. Maybe 10 years. I, I don't really know. Okie dokie.

[Durst]

So maybe you guys are together. Okay. Okay.

[Adam]

Right.

[Chloe]

I don't know. When I found out tuna was huge, I, I, I didn't know a lot about ocean fishing until probably I spent a lot of time in Charleston and I would go fishing a lot down there.

[Adam]

You want to. You want to know what blew my mind?

[Durst]

Okay. And Blake, you visited him, so maybe

[Adam]

that was the same time I did. Do you want to know what blew my mind? You know the angler fish? Those super scary big teeth with the little lantern on their head?

[Durst]

Of course. I've known about them for 20 years.

[Adam]

Those motherfuckers are like. Those motherfuckers are like as big as just. They fit in the palm of your hand. They're super small.

[Durst]

That I didn't know.

[Adam]

They are not big at all. And now we're extremely spawn.

[Chloe]

Okay, so tuna sizes varies dramatically by species.

[Durst]

Oh, wait, I got one more mind blower.

[Chloe]

Hit us with it.

[Adam]

What?

[Durst]

It's not about fish, but we can circle back to fish. Huh? This just hit me during World Cup. Ecuador. Huh? Is named Ecuador because it's on the equator.

[Adam]

The equator.

[Chloe]

Yeah.

[Durst]

Duh.

[Adam]

What the. Yeah. Yeah. Are you serious? Come on, dude. You knew that.

[Chloe]

You knew that.

[Adam]

Yeah. Come Lumbia.

[Durst]

Back to fish. Back. Back to tuna. How big is that tuna, Adam?

[Adam]

You want to know why it's called Columbia?

[Durst]

Okay, go for it. Is that. Is that your knee? Is that your knee? Back up. Yeah.

[Adam]

Let's just say President Humphrey is. He's a good guy.

[Durst]

Okay.

[Chloe]

He's a good guy.

[Adam]

Okay.

[Chloe]

So tuna size varies dramatically by species. Ranging from tiny bullet tuna to just £4. Just £4. To massive Atlantic bluefin.

[Durst]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

On average, these power powerful torpedo shaped fish weigh anywhere from 40 to over 500 pounds and measure 3 to 10ft in length.

[Adam]

Dude, crazy.

[Durst]

Wait. Bullet tuna. Let's open up a sushi place called Bullet and call it Bullet Tuna.

[Chloe]

Bullet tuna. That's great. I would love that. I would love to go marlin fishing. And that is a thing we can do down here.

[Adam]

Really? Go. I thought that was Mexico.

[Durst]

I don't know. I feel like that's what the football players always do, and they end up them drowning and on the back of a capsized boat. But, yeah, let's do it.

[Chloe]

I mean, come on. It's a company retreat. It's a company retreat.

[Adam]

What football player are you talking about? Who died?

[Durst]

I feel like it happened. I feel like that 10, around 10 years ago, when I found out about how big tuna was, I saw real sports where it was like they went out, they got the anchor stuck, they tried to gun it, the boat flipped, somebody drifted away.

[Adam]

But they were doing cocaine too, right?

[Chloe]

You lose.

[Durst]

Okay.

[Adam]

They weren't really marlin fishing.

[Chloe]

Yeah. The thing is. The thing is, is we're not gonna take my boat and go marlin fishing.

[Adam]

They weren't really marlin. They were doing blow and party and hookers. Yes.

[Chloe]

Yes.

[Adam]

That was not. That was code word.

[Chloe]

We're going to. We're going to take. We're going to hire a guy on his boat to take us out using his equipment because none of us know how to do this. I can figure it out.

[Adam]

I got an idea. Yeah.

[Durst]

El Nino.

[Chloe]

I want to get strapped in one of those chairs.

[Durst]

Yes. Jaws.

[Chloe]

And one of those fishing chairs that you're just. You just have to muscle it up.

[Adam]

Adam. That. Sometimes that takes like, two hours to reel the fish in.

[Chloe]

I know.

[Adam]

That's crazy.

[Durst]

Yeah.

[Adam]

He's got a stamina that's absolutely insane. That. To me, that seems not very fun.

[Durst]

Like, you're talking to a guy whose legs separate at the knees. I think he'll be okay.

[Chloe]

I think I'll be fine.

[Adam]

I do not want to reel in a damn fish for two hours.

[Chloe]

And that's the difference between us.

[Adam]

Disaster.

[Chloe]

My guy started the penis. You can start at the penis.

[Durst]

You can. You can always start there. And Blake would love nothing more.

[Adam]

Why? Why? How boring is. Why would you want to reel something in for two?

[Durst]

You gotta let it go out.

[Chloe]

Blake, you can drink. You can watch me and drink beer. So it will be fun.

[Adam]

That's such a boring watch. I'm watching you real efficient for two

[Chloe]

hours until it jumps. And this monster, like, look at that. Speaking of monst. Monster.

[Adam]

Dude.

[Durst]

Good. You've been working on that. Good.

[Chloe]

And he comes out of the water.

[Adam]

Okay.

[Chloe]

On top of the water, dude.

[Adam]

With that. It's like. And then it breaks off the line on hour and a half. And then what happens?

[Durst]

Not the piano wire. We're with. Dude. We're just.

[Chloe]

We're doing Jaws, are you not. Do you not like fishing?

[Adam]

I love fishing. I think fishing's awesome.

[Chloe]

Well, apparently not you.

[Adam]

I think the idea of a two hour fight for a fish, but then

[Chloe]

if you catch it, it's $20,000. Yes. Well, one, it might be. $20,000 ain't a Pokemon card. It's 10ft long.

[Adam]

It's not that big.

[Chloe]

It has a fucking sword attached to its schnoz. It's sick.

[Adam]

Look, I love the. I love the animal. I love the species. I just think watching my buddy crank down for two hours is a little much.

[Durst]

Well, maybe if you're busy catching your own fish. Bitch, you know what?

[Chloe]

You.

[Adam]

Yeah, yeah, maybe you're making waves every. You don't want to be the center of attention. I'm over here reeling in.

[Durst]

I do love the idea of Adam's reeling it in and Blake's just like, well, I would be fucking catching. Somebody's splashing and pouting. It's too noisy over there. I hope you get it.

[Adam]

You're scared of the fish.

[Durst]

I hope you get it, but you're ruining everyone else's experience.

[Adam]

You're scaring the fish.

[Chloe]

That makes me lose so much respect.

[Adam]

Am I off the boat? Boat?

[Chloe]

You might be off the boat, dude.

[Adam]

No, man, look, because to me, that

[Chloe]

is so fun with your. I would be so happy to sit there for two hours and watch you catch a marlin. I would be cheering the whole way.

[Adam]

I'd be.

[Chloe]

I would drink six to eight beers while you did it, and I'd be pretty drunk by the end. I would be pouring beer into your mouth to give you strength.

[Adam]

Yeah, see, okay, see, that was where I was really getting at. It's like, if I'm crazy drinking for two hours, how am I drinking?

[Chloe]

I would feed. I would be feeding you sandwiches. I'd be feeding you sandwiches to give you the strength.

[Adam]

Okay, okay. You're selling me on it and.

[Durst]

And selling me. I know, I know. You might get bored, but I'd be right there going, blake, reel this sucker in. Wait to see the dick on this thing. I was intoxicated. And you'd be like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We gotta see the dick on this thing.

[Adam]

I got it, dude. The way this thing's fighting, my God, it's gonna have a trunk.

[Chloe]

This boy's named Humphrey.

[Adam]

This thing's gonna have a trunk. Drunk. God damn. Here.

[Chloe]

Humphrey, Bo.

[Adam]

Damn.

[Durst]

Let's see.

[Adam]

Okay, wait a minute. We might have had some yes points. Come on, man. It's fine. Dude, we had to have some Points. This episode. Couldn't have a shutout, stay in a cup game. God damn.

[Chloe]

So, yeah, I'm very. We gotta do something. I'm telling you, it's been. It's been too nice, has been too beautiful.

[Adam]

I would love to get on the water.

[Chloe]

Yeah, we got to get out here.

[Durst]

I'm bummed because I. I could have, but I just didn't get to drink on the fourth of July.

[Chloe]

Oh.

[Durst]

I'm on antibiotics and I actually want them to work because I went to the dentist like, a couple weeks ago, and they did a X ray.

[Chloe]

Oh, yeah, Tell this.

[Adam]

Oh, finally. Because you brush your teeth once a week. The.

[Durst]

And they did an X ray and they were like, were you hit in the face recently? And I was like, no.

[Chloe]

Were you not hit in the face with a toothbrush for 10 years?

[Announcer]

You need.

[Durst]

You need to hit your teeth up. Yes. And they go. You have a huge, like, infection. As if there's like a broken tooth, like, behind your. Your nose. And I'm like, well, I've for sure been headbutted by my kids, like, at least four or five times in the last 12 months. And they were like, okay, you have a broken tooth, like, in your roots, then.

[Announcer]

Oh, my God.

[Durst]

So then I had to go and get this dental surgery where they just. They go above your teeth, they slice it open, they get to the roots. They had to, like, file the root away because it was like a fracture. It wasn't like a loose piece. They had to, like, drill that away and then like, stitch it up. And then I'm. Now I'm on antibiotics to get rid of the infection. And I'm like, I just want this to go away.

[Adam]

It's science.

[Durst]

But it wasn't hurting. It was just like a weird. And I could feel it in the roof of my mouth. But it was never like a pain. It was just like a. Oh, that's like a weird sensation.

[Adam]

That's really weird that you didn't clock that that was going on.

[Durst]

Dude. I remember. I remember Emma was there too. Like, I got hit by my kid in the face so hard on the couch that I just covered my face so that I didn't cry in front of them.

[Chloe]

Cry in front of them? Yeah.

[Durst]

No, no, no, no. You know when you get, like, hit and you. You turn it on and you're like, this is. We're going. This is it. Yeah, now it's on. I got hit in the face so hard that I was like, by.

[Adam]

By what age?

[Durst]

A 8 year old?

[Adam]

By an 8 year old. And you almost went into fight mode.

[Chloe]

Yeah, that's our. That's a true. That's a true sized head, too.

[Durst]

I almost took side control on my 8 year old and put him in

[Adam]

a K. Great counterpart.

[Chloe]

That happens with my two and a. With my two and a half year old. And the. The power just isn't there quite yet.

[Durst]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Yeah, Right.

[Durst]

This was a headbutt. I think. I think it was a headbutt.

[Chloe]

But I told Chloe this story. I told the story about you to her because she just got hit by BO and cracked her tooth.

[Adam]

Oh, no. Like.

[Chloe]

Like chipped. Chipped it?

[Adam]

Yeah. Oh, that's.

[Durst]

Yeah, it's dangerous.

[Chloe]

Oh, remember when Chloe chipped. Ripped both of her front teeth with you?

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

When we were going into Knott's Berry Farm. Knott's Berry Farm?

[Durst]

Yeah. On what, like, opening beer cans or beer bottles?

[Chloe]

No, it was a pole. It was a metal pole that, like, for the gates, the clothes.

[Durst]

Oh, yeah.

[Chloe]

And it was like, Blake, his ex, me and Chloe.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

And it was the first time that they were meeting her. Meeting her. So. Yes. And so she was, like, a little nervous to, like, meet Blake and his girl, and. And she was back talking with Blake.

[Durst]

You're picking your arms on international streaming.

[Chloe]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

[Durst]

Okay. I'm just letting you know.

[Adam]

Sorry.

[Chloe]

She was in the back with Blake's ex, and me and Blake were up front, and we passed this metal pole, and I just touched it. Instead of saying, hey, here's a metal pole. I just, like, give it a trap. Trap.

[Durst]

Yep.

[Adam]

It's a bagel.

[Chloe]

Instead of saying words.

[Adam]

Well, he heads up.

[Chloe]

But I just was. I was just kind of like, here's the pole. And I hit. Hit it twice.

[Durst]

Y.

[Chloe]

And she walked. She laughed. You know how Chloe has this, like, large laugh, this, like, almost cackle?

[Durst]

She's like.

[Chloe]

She, like, is a big laugher. So she laughs and clacks her head back and hits directly the two front teeth.

[Adam]

This is right before we're walking through the front gates.

[Chloe]

And she goes, teeth. Poof.

[Announcer]

Poof.

[Chloe]

Pow. Surprise. They're gone. On just like.

[Durst]

Like, surprise. What's with your teeth?

[Chloe]

What's with your teeth? Yeah, they're like, fully sideways chipped off. And we're like, well, we just got all the way to not scary Farm, which is a bit of a drive.

[Adam]

And it was a b.

[Chloe]

A. We saw that. That one guy fingering that other guy's on the drive in. Yes. Legendary. So it was a legendary night already.

[Durst]

Not so to Blake.

[Chloe]

That was not Scary. Yeah.

[Adam]

That was not scary.

[Chloe]

It was.

[Durst]

Blake walked by and shouted, yes, points. Yes.

[Chloe]

Not scary.

[Adam]

Well, here's what I'll say. And this is why Chloe's a g. She still went to the park and we had a blast.

[Chloe]

Yeah, she. She goes, let's go in and ride rides.

[Adam]

Just every.

[Durst]

Every picture, her smile, she had like a sick whistle.

[Chloe]

No, every photo. Because Chloe gets recognized by little girls that watched her on the Disney Channel. And so they're like, can we take a photo? And she's like, sure. So then. No. So then she kept smiling, but she. She like was doing this thing that sort of made the photos look sexy, which I found hilarious.

[Durst]

She was going like, oh, yeah, yeah, sure.

[Chloe]

Like putting her tongue up on top of her teeth to. To block the view. But then it just looks kind of sexual.

[Durst]

I wish that caught on with like very young girl girls after that, we're like eight year old girls were like, the new look. We traced it back to Chloe.

[Adam]

Oh, I love that.

[Chloe]

And then. Oh, yeah.

[Durst]

Protect your teeth out there if you're.

[Chloe]

Protect your teeth. But. But those two men going into. We were driving into.

[Adam]

You have talked about this. I know it.

[Durst]

I have. That's okay. This is nine. His is 10th thing. He's circling back. Let him have it.

[Chloe]

Well, I. It just occurred. People were like, wait. They saw a guy figuring another guy's. How did this go about.

[Durst]

I know. Netflix. Ne. This has not been said on Netflix.

[Chloe]

We were driving into the parking structure. I mean, I know Blake sees it every weekend, but it's something new. So something new for me to see. I've never seen this way more mind

[Adam]

blowing stuff than that. I seen way scarier stuff.

[Durst]

Mind blowing. I see.

[Chloe]

We are. I was. I. At that time, I drove a Jeep Grand Cherokee. So we're sitting up a little higher. We look over at the car next to us, and it was the. The passenger side driver was just perched up or the passenger and the guy in the passenger seat was just perched up, ass in the air, like at the window.

[Durst]

Like, ass, like facing the window.

[Chloe]

Like, pressed against the window. And then the driver was just like

[Durst]

over back.

[Chloe]

Know what I mean? No, forward. So he's like. The passenger is pressed against the. The window. The windshield.

[Durst]

Yeah. Hold up. Yeah. Oh, his face is on the window and his ass is to the drive.

[Chloe]

Driver's face is like up and asses to the driver and the driver's like. It was aggressive. And then.

[Durst]

Can you draw that?

[Chloe]

We were in like the VIP Loun line to like get our tickets and they were also in the VIP line. And then I'm just like, man, all I could think about is like, this guy's asshole. And like, how sore.

[Durst]

Probably I wish you guys met. And he put out the hand like blue streak style.

[Chloe]

Yeah. It's like, hey, nice to meet you.

[Adam]

How are you?

[Durst]

Yeah, glad to meet you. I'm a hugger.

[Adam]

Hey, I'm. I'm the head of Paramount.

[Chloe]

How are you?

[Durst]

God, that'd be great.

[Chloe]

How are you? Put her there.

[Adam]

You shake my hand and you've got yourself a two picture deal.

[Chloe]

I'd shake it.

[Adam]

Oh, I'd shake it. Oh, I.

[Durst]

What's up with your girlfriend's teeth? Let's take a picture to commemorate it. Okay. If you could just not look like, like sexual, please. Hi.

[Chloe]

Yeah, so, yeah, that was a pretty eventful night. And so I. I just brought up your tooth thing to CLO because she also has some cracked teeth right now.

[Durst]

Dude, you got to watch out for these domes. They throw them around my middle kid, he's one of those just like, he just is loose and he throws himself around like a rag doll. I don't know what it is, but we got to keep away from drugs for sure.

[Adam]

Sure. There's a. I do kind of have to revoke your man card because on America's 250th birthday, even though you're on antibiotics, you still gotta drink some beers.

[Chloe]

Yeah, I know.

[Durst]

I. I will say I was drinking NAS. I was drinking NAS.

[Adam]

Okay.

[Chloe]

Okay.

[Durst]

All right. And I, Mr. I'm Mr. Not Really Too Keen on NAS, but I just was like, I just want these antibiotics to work. And guess what, Guess what. It's the last day today. Tomorrow I'm not going anywhere. I'm gonna stay home and drink all day. Yeah. I'm gonna go raid a pavilion.

[Chloe]

Impressive. Because I know that you love the 4th of July so that you must really want to get better.

[Durst]

Just watched a bunch of soccer.

[Adam]

Yeah. Like, fourth of July is whatever, but when Mexico wins. God damn. Now that's a party.

[Chloe]

That's a party. Fourth of July is an all time. Isaac left the party at like 4pm sure.

[Adam]

What the hell. Revoke his man card.

[Chloe]

He told me that we had taken five shots by 4pm, which seems real.

[Adam]

Really?

[Chloe]

Which seems real.

[Adam]

God damn.

[Chloe]

Yeah.

[Durst]

Yeah. Getting ready. 25 for 250.

[Adam]

You were taking shots at the kids party.

[Chloe]

At the kids party.

[Adam]

That's sick, dude. Hey, I salute you, brother.

[Chloe]

Well, they're, you know, they're like those little mini shots and then you don't fill them all away so they don't get. They're little ditties.

[Adam]

They don't count.

[Durst]

Do you guys remember, I mean, obviously, when you're on like a college campus and you're doing shots, they're as small as possible because the college just wants to make a bunch of money. But I just remember moving, even in Chicago, shots were like shot glasses. Then moving to la, shots were served in like a. Like a cocktail glass. Like what you would drink old fashioned out of. We do a grand and they're massive.

[Adam]

Oh, yeah, we do a grande, baby.

[Chloe]

Yeah, that's. That was too much.

[Adam]

This is the way.

[Durst]

It's crazy.

[Chloe]

Well, it's because they want to charge you like $28 a shot.

[Durst]

Yeah, but I feel like getting your. I feel like you're getting your money's worth. I just remember being like, yo, I moved to la. I was a full blown alcoholic from Wisconsin, but this was the one thing that threw me off was that, like, shots were not shots.

[Announcer]

Shots.

[Durst]

Shots were the size of brats. I was just speaking in Wisconsin language.

[Chloe]

Are there any take backs, any apologies, any epic slams here?

[Durst]

Oh, anything about worms you want to take back, Blake?

[Chloe]

No, I actually have a take back.

[Adam]

After you, like sat me through the scenario and you told me how much you would support me while I was reeling in my swordfish or my marlin.

[Chloe]

Yes, I. I would like to take

[Adam]

back me saying I would not enjoy watching you catch a swordfish because that would. Would be pretty cool. Two hour battle.

[Chloe]

Phenomenal.

[Adam]

As it's gonna have ebbs and flows. It's gonna be like watching. I'm in.

[Durst]

I mean, there were so many other things you could have taken back.

[Adam]

No, that's what I'm taking back.

[Chloe]

No, no, no, no. It took the wind out of my sails a little bit.

[Adam]

Yeah, that was stupid. That was just stupid.

[Chloe]

Because I would love to watch you catch a marlin. I would tell that story as if I caught a marlin. And in fact, I might replace your name with mine.

[Durst]

I was gonna say over time, man, it might end up being historic.

[Chloe]

End up being my marlin.

[Adam]

Yeah, if you actually get the marlin on the boat, that's cool.

[Chloe]

I would tell even if you don't. Dude, me and, and our. Our good friend Walsh and my buddy Jason Hillman, we went fishing and we. We. It must have been like a giant shark. And we had hooked onto it and we fought it for like 45 minutes, the three of us, and we're passing the. The rod back and forth and like, you've done that. Remember prom? It pulled us over two miles. And the driver's like, this is crazy. This thing's huge. It has to be at least 3, 400 pounds. And we're like, oh, my God. And then it snapped.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Chloe]

You know, right as we could sort of see like the outline of something huge. And it's still. To this day, I remember. To this day I remember it.

[Announcer]

And.

[Chloe]

And. And it's one of those.

[Durst]

What's weird is I was on board and now after you just. Just described it, now I'm like, I'm good. 45 minutes. And snap. You're passing back, dude.

[Adam]

That's part of the game, dude.

[Chloe]

Fun, dude. Oh, now Blake's fully on board. Okay, I'm in. I'm in.

[Adam]

Dude.

[Durst]

Are there snacks?

[Chloe]

There's snacks.

[Adam]

Oh, there's snacks and there's cold snacks.

[Chloe]

Cold snacks.

[Durst]

Cold snacks.

[Adam]

Yeah, absolutely. There's big sips. America flavor.

[Durst]

I wanna. I wanna go marlin fishing. If we can use seahorse as the bait. Can you do that?

[Adam]

I've never seen that. I know. Squid.

[Chloe]

Yeah.

[Adam]

I don't know if they like squid. Probably a mackerel.

[Chloe]

Maybe a bait.

[Adam]

Anchovy or cheeseburger. Sardine.

[Chloe]

Any other tapex. Apologies. Any epic slams there? Durs.

[Adam]

I apologize. I. I took back. I apologize.

[Durst]

I don't know, man.

[Adam]

Takes a big man to.

[Durst]

I'm sorry. Hey, I just. I do want to apologize to. To our forefathers for not getting absolute blotto on the 4th of July. I'm sorry about that.

[Chloe]

Oh, dubious. That was going to be my recommendation for you. Yeah.

[Adam]

Well, hey, you. You. Well, actually, this is a couple weeks off, but you may be able to make up for it. If Norway goes all the way. You could party for your. You have chances.

[Durst]

They're in it. They're in it to win it. It's too bad. It's a damn shame about the us. They kind of just. In a weird way, I don't know what happened.

[Chloe]

We. We. I was with my kid in a. In the pool at this thing called Aqua Tots, which is sure very familiar. You know, children's swim class. And it's just there was TVs in the, like, lobby sort of area outside, but you could see them through the glass class. So it's just a group of dads just dunking their children underneath the water, staring through the.

[Durst]

Come on, get in.

[Chloe]

No more, daddy.

[Durst]

That's it.

[Chloe]

No more.

[Durst]

And if you're the writer from SNL who stole our ideas, that's a good sketch.

[Chloe]

That's a good one.

[Durst]

Have a bunch of dads watching World cup while they're at and just have dolls and like drowning the kids. It'll be a big funny thing.

[Chloe]

Uhhuh.

[Durst]

Yeah, that's worth.

[Chloe]

That's worth taking.

[Durst]

Do that. Oh, I'm so sorry. And then like, you circle back. That won't happen again. Anyway, what were you saying about he's in Kindercare.

[Chloe]

And then as most weeks I forgot what I said the entire episode. So I can't. I don't have anything to take back or apologize for. But I will say that we do need to get together.

[Adam]

Let's do it.

[Chloe]

And take a company retreat and get all sunburned together in some form.

[Durst]

I'm around for the next three weeks.

[Adam]

Okay, three weeks. Got three weeks. Hey, that El Nino water is out there.

[Announcer]

Let's.

[Adam]

Let's get on the water.

[Chloe]

Let's talk about it.

[Durst]

I'm going on a road trip.

[Chloe]

Let's talk about it.

[Adam]

Let's throw some bait in the water.

[Durst]

What was this, guys? What was this? What was this? This was another episode of this is.

[Chloe]

That shit's important.

[Durst]

Kumbaya.

[Chloe]

Hey, hit us with that Kid Cudi song.

[Durst]

Yes.

[Adam]

Real quick, real quick, real quick. What's it called?

[Chloe]

Just right. Kid Cudi from that one movie. Project X. Project X is the name of the movie. Hit us with it. Hit us with it.

[Adam]

Oh, it's Pursuit of Happiness. Of course.

[Chloe]

We're playing it out. Play it out. Out. Play it out.

[Announcer]

Oh,

[Durst]

this is another episode.

[Adam]

Tik Tok dance. All right, we can't have the audio. That was hot. Dude.

[Chloe]

You know those moments when you realize you've been adulting too hard? Like getting excited about a new vacuum, making a spreadsheet for a group trip, saying let's circle back and meaning it, that's when you need a slice. And trust us, we all need a slice.

[Adam]

Slice is a soda you remember back and better for ya. And yes, it's still soda. The full flavor, the fizz, the whole thing. But now it has Grown up. Benefits 5 grams of sugar or less, plus prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics. I personally love the orange soda flavor cause it takes me back to my childhood.

[Durst]

So you get real soda flavors, real fizz, and real benefits without making some sad adult compromise. Grab a slice when you want something full flavored, low sugar, gut, friendly, and way more fun than whatever responsible thing you are about to do. Slice a better soda for fun's sake.
