Amateur influencers. I don't know if that's how I describe myself. What? You're.

[James Harris]

That's medical advice.

Don't see a doctor about that. You're good. Don't get vaxed.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

You're good. Oh, well, it's. You said life advice.

[Ad Voice 1]

Oh my.

[James Harris]

Well, I said medical advice, but.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Oh, I can't read. I can't read and listen at the same time. I cannot walk and chew gum at the same time.

[James Harris]

These headphones are actually the noise canceling headphones that children wear at concerts.

It is a wet and wild day here in the greatest city on God.

[James Harris]

It is really.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

It sucks.

[James Harris]

Undercover copes on the from the fan from the waist down on you.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

I think from the. From the feet up. The whole thing.

[James Harris]

From the chin up and from the would say chest down.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

I'm more of like a. A bad lieutenant style Undercover meaning I do crime. The socks are as six, the pants are vintage car heart. The T shirt is our legacy workshop.

[James Harris]

This is the Bart Simpson boot from Ven.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

I got it at Ven, but I feel like the. It's not like ven specific. It doesn't say I went to Ven space. It just says I went to like the standard workshop Bart Simpson tea. Isn't that something you can buy in Stockholm?

[James Harris]

I think they ran it a while ago and then I think for the Ven event they. The event, they recreate it.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Oh yeah. It's a. It's a workshop classic. That's all you need to know. A worldwide classic bootleg. The jacket is the Barber Levi's Type 2 Collab Trucker.

[James Harris]

We're going to talk about it.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Yeah, we are.

[James Harris]

Pins still on?

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Yeah. I was thinking about if I should be that guy also. Let's get granular for a second. Have you noticed pins as a micro trend? I swear to God. Hats, jackets on hoodies.

[James Harris]

Yeah, I guess it's like the customization, the DIY thing. Absolutely.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

It's the. The.

[James Harris]

The not child Labubu. Except probably just a show.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

The grown man Labubu. Yeah. And it came with a lot more pins. So this could have been four pins. I could. I could have been even more decorated. Yes. What I.

[James Harris]

The pins are the brands.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

No. So you know what I like about this? Let's talk.

[James Harris]

What do you like about it?

[Lawrence Schlossman]

So they switched the colors. So Barber is in red. Levi's.

[James Harris]

Damn.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

And Levis is in green.

[Ad Voice 2]

Barber.

[James Harris]

There you go.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Yeah. Unsure if they will stay on. But the jacket went right to body. I believe it dropped yesterday. From when you're hearing this, we're going.

[James Harris]

To talk about it later.

[Ad Voice 1]

The.

[James Harris]

It's by the way, it's hurricane out, yo. Shout out all the mandem in Jamaica.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Yes.

[James Harris]

Keep your head up. Click the link in my story, which I don't know if it's still live now for some hurricane relief funds. Cuz Jamaica got slapped around by the. I. I'm not a meteorologist guy.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Can't be everything.

[James Harris]

I watched one video and all of a sudden my entire for you page or Twitter is just not just Jake Wolf getting dunked on by right wing lunatics, but just meteorology videos. Nuts. Anyway, yeah.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Beautiful country, beautiful people.

[James Harris]

What?

[Lawrence Schlossman]

They need our support.

[James Harris]

Jamaica.

[Ad Voice 1]

Okay.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

They are getting.

[James Harris]

He sounds weird when you say it.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

I think slapped around. Yeah. I mean I'm not saying like wagwan me bra or anything like that. I'm being sincere, you know. Prayers up for Jamaica. Truly. The hat is Austria and the sunglasses were somebody's Lower east side's finest in the hydro flask. And the underwear are skims. Nice, James.

[James Harris]

The boots are rear X Solomon. The socks are Manresa. The jeans are arache. The polo is graph paper. I can go flying squirrel. It's one size. I go flying squirrel if I go like this.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

You got some wings, bro?

[James Harris]

Yeah, one size. I did see a great video during Hurricane Melissa of Jamaica of some, like, two Jamaican dudes just, like, wearing rain jackets and trying to, like, jump up and catch the wind. And then one dude goes flying like 20ft.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Is he okay?

[James Harris]

Yeah, yeah, no, he's good. He's good.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

So you could do that in this?

[James Harris]

Probably.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

You could. We could. You could try it when you go outside.

[James Harris]

I know. Almost happened. Almost happened when I stepped off the M14A.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

I know you're not a meteorologist, cuz you just said that. Is this. Are these related? Is there like a storm? It's a storm system. Got it.

[James Harris]

No, it's just like it's swirling, so it's sending rain and up the coast and.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Yeah, it is.

[James Harris]

I don't know.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Well, I was going to say that it's honestly the perfect day to podcast. Just locked up inside, yapping. Yeah. Not much else.

[James Harris]

I hate commuting here on public transportation, though. Don't just make the buses free, make them run more frequently. The M14A runs every 22 minutes.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Do you. You check? You got to check the. Gotta hit the app, bro.

[James Harris]

Yeah, but I can't time the G to the L that. That like specifically.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Damn planes, trains and automobiles for you to get here today.

[James Harris]

Yeah.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Brutal, dude.

[James Harris]

And today was leg day. Some hobbling.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

It's cooked. Hobbling. How's your foot?

[James Harris]

Foot's fine.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

What percentage would you put it at?

[James Harris]

75.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Oh, we're almost so back, dude.

[James Harris]

It just takes a long time because your plantar is always under stress. You can't. The only time you're resting your planter.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Is when you're sleeping or just laid laid up on the couch watching Real Housewives.

[James Harris]

Yeah, but that's like. That's like 40 minutes too active. Yeah, racked. I racked the whole. Racked it on the leg extension. I felt good. And the coat is pen noise over here.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Big old flasher trench coat.

[James Harris]

Yes, sir. Vintage Perry Jill Saunder Topo Chico. Twisted grapefruit just to feel something. And a hydro flask. Finest. Because I don't think those XL Topo Chicos are ours.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

No, they were. We were just. They disappearing. Yeah. I could have sworn when we moved in, it was like, yo. Like a help yourself communal thing. Within reason because like I was drinking their LA colognes. I think I drank them all out. I should, I should get some in replace.

[James Harris]

Maybe that's why they. Yeah, maybe that's why they changed the policy.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Say what you want about us, we're like really good tenants and great neighbors. So, yeah, I'll replace the coffees.

[James Harris]

That's true.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

What tr.

[James Harris]

That's Tragedy of the commons. Sure, help yourself. Oh, this one guy drank all socialism bad.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

This is what everyone's saying on Twitter about our friend Jake. Dude.

[James Harris]

Yeah, for sure.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

All right.

[Ad Voice 1]

They don't.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

You just. I know we're not talking about this, but like, why can't. It's all. It's like Derek guy is the only guy that's allowed to like light clothes and then talk about politics.

[James Harris]

It's tough to be on Twitter and be more than one type of guy. You can be a clothing guy on the Internet. That's what I mean. You can be a clothing guy, you can be a sports guy. He can be. I mean, if you're gonna be a politics guy, be a politics guy. Don't be. You can't be. Okay, maybe it's. You can't be a politics guy and something else.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Politics. It's. You gotta. Well, this is the Shut up and hoop.

[James Harris]

But literally Shut up and dribble.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Shut up in post fit picks.

[James Harris]

Shut up and Drip. Yeah, Shut up and Armani.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Shut up and Drip. Honestly, that's what, that's the title. All right.

[James Harris]

Shut up and Drip.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Shut up and Drip. Let's go.

[James Harris]

Speaking of, let's talk about this collaboration. You, you kind of facetiously called it collab of the year.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

But I. Not factiously, bro.

[James Harris]

It was factious. But I do think.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

What do you mean? Why are you tell. I was not facetious.

[James Harris]

Okay.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

I, I, I think if anything, I'm.

[James Harris]

Not going to speak for you. What you said off mic, but.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Yeah, I said I was glazing.

[Ad Voice 2]

Okay.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

That's not factious. I was being hyperbolic because I was so grateful to get what I'm assuming is like a sold out jacket that I think is up there with a few others as a collaboration of the year.

[Ad Voice 1]

Nice.

[James Harris]

So that's hyperbolic. Facetious.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Not even remotely the same.

[James Harris]

What does facetious mean?

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Facetious?

[James Harris]

Are you trying to poke holes my argument right now?

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Facetious? You are knowingly leading someone wrong, I think. Or astray. Whereas hyperbolic is unknowingly, I think, going over the top. I think it's not, it's, it's the intentionality behind it. I think. I don't. I think facetious almost makes me seem like I was. I'm being rude. Whereas I think being hyperbolic just means excitement.

[James Harris]

Flippant.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Yeah, I was not being flippant.

[James Harris]

I don't think hyperbolic. It has to do with intention or not.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Well, either way, my intentions were.

[James Harris]

It's exaggerated.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Yeah. It was just. It was a bold claim. Because when the year is not over. We haven't even talked about Stein Kiff. Oh, man.

[James Harris]

Collab of the year.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

So.

[Ad Voice 1]

No.

[James Harris]

No hyperbole, no facetiousness.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Well, we're both fans of this collab.

[James Harris]

Yes. Not being facetious or hyperbolic. It's good. It's really good. I mean, it's. I went to their event last night at the river, the worst bar in New York City.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Trash. Although the Bodie Bar for those. The Bodie.

[James Harris]

The body bar. That's not why I don't like it. That's why you don't like it because you're a.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Why don't you like it?

[James Harris]

Everything's too heavy. Everyone is like. Everyone orders a drink with nine ingredients as a cocktail.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Sure.

[James Harris]

And in my experience here, the bartenders have never been like. Like a good bartender will kind of be like, approach a group or like a section and be like, hey, what do you guys want?

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Yeah.

[James Harris]

And then like, all right, you want this nine ingredient cocktail. You want a beer. You want like two vodka sodas. Okay, great. And then just like serve the beer, serve the sodas and then make the cocktail and like take your time with it. Make it right versus just like the one customer at a time rule.

[Lawrence Schlossman]

Yeah.
