[Jimmy]

welcome to another midweek, boys. Only with Jimmy and Larry around and getting silly after two hours. Yeah, 33% less time than we had with our first recording ever with the kid Marrow. But he had a big what I thought was a hard out, but it was a very soft out because we then yapped for another 30 minutes just off mic.

[Larry]

Yeah, the best part of potting with Marrow is always the podcast. You do after the podcast when it's

[Jimmy]

before the podcast not being recorded and before the podcast.

[Larry]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

What a goat. Yeah. So we just had two hours of kid marrow. It is Friday at 4.40pm what are you up to this weekend, Lawrence?

[Larry]

What do you got planned? Well, after having a quite the active social life the past couple weekends, I have nothing planned and I am not

[Jimmy]

doing Friend Flex Alert.

[Larry]

Yeah, well, I mean I'm not. Not that I'm the most. I like the way that I like to break up my weekend. If we're including Friday night is like one night of like plans out of the house and then whether that's like Saturday or Friday and then relaxing to

[Jimmy]

the maxing and what does that until.

[Larry]

No, no weeds.

[Jimmy]

Bubble bath.

[Larry]

No weeds, no baths. What it was until it entails I

[Jimmy]

took a bath a Few nights ago.

[Larry]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

Was theoretically fire, except was in actuality ass. Because my water heater ran out of hot water before it fully filled up the bath.

[Larry]

That's.

[Jimmy]

So it's kind of warm. It was like a warmish bath.

[Larry]

Yeah. I don't take bath. Jenna loves a bath with, like, some Epsom salt, some, you know, getting all. Getting the lavender going. I'm not a. Yeah, I'm more of. I'm an efficient shower taker too. I don't really luxur eight, you know, which I know some people really love. Like a long, relaxing, hot shower. I'm trying to get in, clean what needs to be cleaned, and then get out and get on with my in

[Jimmy]

and out of the shower in like a minute and a half.

[Larry]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

Not gonna lie. No. But the bath is more for athletic recovery. You got to treat your body right.

[Larry]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

Recovery is just as important as working out, Lawrence.

[Larry]

Yeah. The worst part of, like, I don't hate. Like, I don't love going to the gym, but the thing I look forward to the least is the stretching. So. Stretching sucks, dude, but you gotta do it.

[Jimmy]

Yeah.

[Larry]

Do you not. Do you stretch?

[Jimmy]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Larry]

What about for tennis, dude? Like, I'm stretching decently before, like, a hot girl walk if I was playing an actual sport. Yeah. Oh, bro, you don't want the last thing. Oh, I injured myself walking on an incline treadmill. Come on.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, well, if mainly it's.

[Larry]

I'm mainly talking about my cat.

[Jimmy]

If that happens, then you kind of deserve that. But no, the recover. I. I did a little Epsom salt. I bought Epsom salt off Amazon. Four bucks for, like, a massive pack.

[Larry]

It helps with inflammation. Right.

[Jimmy]

I. I don't know. Some guy told me to do it, so I did it. All right, so you're maxing, relaxing and not partying this weekend?

[Larry]

No, no, no. Not after last weekend. No. I'm going to be.

[Jimmy]

You get. You get after last weekend, bro. Unfortunately.

[Larry]

Well, I had. I had family in town, the kind of family that likes to chill hard.

[Jimmy]

I don't got family. I got chillers.

[Larry]

Yeah, well, actually, chill is the wrong word. They like to. It was. Yeah, it was a big. It was a big weekend.

[Jimmy]

A bit hectic.

[Larry]

[Jimmy]

What family do you have that parties?

[Larry]

This is. It's my. My. My best friend's stepsister who I've known her entire life, so I consider her my step sister. Yeah. Honestly. So she was in town with friends, and then. So we all went out. Friends, including Jenna, and then my brother and his boyfriend. And we, we had, we had a late night at karaoke is where it all ended up. So step, bro, what are you doing?

[Jimmy]

Going to lay wine bar for dinner tonight. Going to the Noguchi Museum tomorrow out in Queens. And then it's just a 15 minute walk over to an Egyptian seafood spot called Abu Kir or.

[Larry]

Yeah, Abu Kir from the Noguchi Museum.

[Jimmy]

Yes.

[Larry]

What's it. Were the plans made in terms of museum forward or meal forward?

[Jimmy]

Like, what was the museum first? It's, there's an exhibition about new Noguchi's relationship with New York City. So the permanent collection there is incredible. It's such a vibe, bro.

[Larry]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

I did ironically once see a woman carrying a Gucci shopping bag at the no Gucci museum.

[Larry]

There's. It's a no Gucci policy. She not read the name of that door.

[Jimmy]

That was a funny little Instagram story.

[Larry]

Oh, I see now.

[Jimmy]

Like, I, I posted.

[Larry]

I was like, you hit the pun. Yeah, it's. It's crazy. Like people say that we're dumb as rocks and then here you are getting some culture, you know, going against that narrative.

[Jimmy]

I mean, go check. It's a great, It's a permanent museum. It's. It's a great. It's out there in Queens. It's like industrial Astoria. But that's why you mix in, mix in a little. Go to Astoria Seafood, brother. Go to Abu Kir. Go to some Greek. Go pull up at Stavi's crib.

Yeah, because you can get no Gucci paper, you know, lamps for cheap.

[Larry]

I have a fake one.

[Jimmy]

You can get the real ones there for like mad cheap.

[Larry]

What does that mean, though? Like a big one.

[Jimmy]

A big one.

[Larry]

What does mad cheap mean?

[Jimmy]

I don't know, like a hundred bucks.

[Larry]

Oh, that's that. I should upgrade.

Yeah, I have these coasters that anytime someone sees these coasters in my crib, they get complimented. I got them at the Gucci gift shop.
