A
You know what tastes good? That's zero sugar and uncaffeinated. What zero sugar doctor or root beer? Like I oh I've never had zero sugar root beer and I haven't had root beer in a long time. So when I'm tasting it it just tastes like root beer to me. It doesn't taste like sugar free root beer.
B
I am so I, I drink so much. I I've drinking so much diet now where like I can never have a normal soda again. When I have a normal soda I can taste it. I'm just like oh this is way too much.
A
So you prefer like the diet taste.
B
Of like I love the diet. Oh that's like the supermodel in me, huh? Just like I love diet. I like the taste of stevia and truvia and like that fake sugar.
A
Oh, gets you going.
B
It gets me going. Like whenever I drink like a. Whenever I drink a seltzer, I could taste like, like happy hour. I could taste the stevia in it. And that's why I liked it. A lot of people don't like, like, I remember we were at Portola Festival. This is when happy hour was like out and about. Happy hour was in the festival. People were. People were drinking it everywhere. Somebody came, somebody said that they didn't like it because they don't like this taste of stevia. I was like, I didn't know. You cannot like the taste of that.
A
I think some people have a tongue for it. They can really suss it out.
B
Interesting.
C
I like those. Are they called not truvia? What's the soda that sounds like stevia? Oh, David always has them.
A
Sevia.
B
Sevia. It's like sevia or sevia or.
C
Yeah, yeah, I like those sodas. Like, those taste good to me.
B
Oh, yeah.
C
And those are like only stevia.
A
Are they sodas? Are they like spark flavored sparkling water?
B
I think they're considered like flavored sparkling sodas. But it's like halfway to a soda. It's like 50% of a soda. That's evo.
A
Yeah, I guess they're good to mix like cocktails with especially. They are a zero sugar soda. Look at our.
B
Look at it with a Dr. Xevia. They're trying so hard to make it look familiar to the customer.
C
Did you know that Fresca is considered sparkling water? Yeah, I always, I always thought it was a soda growing up.
B
That doesn't taste like. Doesn't taste like sparkling water. It tastes like.
C
I don't know if they changed it though, because like the new cans are like sparkling water.
A
Sparkling soda water.
B
That, to me though, that looks like. What's that soda? That's like Italian. It starts with a P. Pellegrino. Pellegrino. To me, that looks like Pellegrino.
A
Oh, yeah, Pellegrino.
B
Pellegrino really did it right. Like the, the whole branding with Pellegrino, like the, the top, the fucking. The little yogurt top.
A
It looks luxurious. You feel like you're on Lake Como having one of those.
B
Exactly. I think they crushed it and I hope they never change it because you know how brands are always like, oh, we got to look more modern.
A
But they got news up in that, though.
C
I've been addicted to The. The chows, man. Are they good, the chow? Jared, type. Type in chow soda. C, I, A, O. Oh.
B
Oh, what's this?
A
It's like a blood orange one made.
C
From them, but they're the. They're only like 10 calories. Oh, Pellegrino has a lot of sugar.
B
Honestly, this looks like a seltzer to me. Like chow, like, bye, I'm getting drunk.
C
It makes me feel. What I mean.
B
Oh, wait, it's chow high or by.
A
It's both.
B
I love that.
A
Yeah, right.
B
Why don't we have that?
A
It's like aloha. Yeah.
B
Wait, aloha is bye too, I think.
A
Yeah. Aloha is both like hello and goodbye. Really? Is it?
B
I don't think so.
A
Hello and goodbye. Is it? Yes, it is. It is a hello and goodbye.
B
I fucking love learning.
C
We learn something on this podcast every day. Yeah.
B
You know what? I love this pod. This is why I love unfiltered.
A
We also didn't used to say hello until it was like the. The telephone. Oh, my gosh, my brain's not working today. The telephone.
B
Yeah.
A
Caused us to say hello like we say before. I don't know really what we said, but the telephone. Like, do we say hello because of the telephone?
B
Wait, what? Did you just come up with this, or you looked this up?
C
It was.
A
Heard about it.
C
It was probably like back in the day, people would be like, greeting.
A
So before hello became popular in the late 19th century, largely popularized by Thomas Edison. For telephone use, people use formal, time based situational greetings like, how do you do? Good morning, good day, good evening. What cheer. Howdy. Hail. Oh, gosh.
B
So.
A
So hello.
B
So hail or hello or sorry, hello came from.
A
It came because of the telephone. And there was also that song. You ever see the frog was like, hello, my darling, hello, my baby. Hello, my ragtime gal. That was like making fun of the popularization, if that's a word of that, of people starting to say hello on the phone.
B
Wow.
A
There's a whole little root and story behind it, but just fun fact.
B
Nice hedge. I also just love the fact that.
A
Howdy is a contraction of how do ye.
C
Oh, no, Jared, that just fucked me up.
A
How do you.
B
How do you.
A
Wow.
B
Whoa.
C
That is crazy. I had no idea.
B
Wild.
A
But originally, Alexander Graham Bell was preferring to use ahoy, like on the top. A little nautical.
B
I like that. Ahoy.
A
Ahoy. Yeah, I kind of like that too. Also in. In Spanish, or maybe it's like more Mexico Spanish. Like, they go like bueno when, like, they answer the Phone.
B
Bueno. Bueno mean like good.
A
But they're like, probably like, good day, how are you? Like, it's. But I noticed like in. When I'm watching like Spanish based movies, they're like bueno. Or like in Japan, they like mushy. Mushy.
B
Is this like, like kind of slang.
A
Like sort of greetings, cultural greetings. What is mushy? Mushy Mushi. Don't they say that on the phone? It means hello or I'm about to speak.
B
Interesting, because that's the name of Hidaya's cat.
A
Mushy.
C
Mushy.
B
Oh, no, no, it's mochi.
A
Oh, it's mochi.
C
That's totally different.
B
I think it just sounds like mochi. Mushy.
A
Well, mushy. Mushy bueno. Welcome to the episode.
B
For all of our Japanese viewers.
C
How do you.
A
Ahoy. If you're on a boat right now?
B
If you're.
A
Yeah.
B
If you have really good service out there in the middle of the ocean. Ahoy.
C
I want to go. I want to go back to the boat talk because I just recently found out what knots are.
A
Knots, like, that's a way of like measuring sailing. Like you can't really measure like miles or you're going like 70 knots an hour.
C
I wondered why boats was knots. Like, they don't say like, oh, I'm doing 50 miles an hour on a boat. It's like it's all by knots because I guess there's so weird.
A
But it's like n A. Okay. A nautical knot is a unit of speed equal to 1 nautical mile an hour used in maritime and aviation navigation.
C
Yeah, planes are on that too. It's how many knots it lets out within that distance.
A
Because I guess they're dealing with like different variables of like wind and like also currents of the ocean. Like it's not like a land powered measurement. Does that make sense? So they have to like calculate it on like a different estimate.
B
Whenever I hear the word not the first thing that go. The first thought of my head, my fat ass just thinks of pretzels. Pretzel. Like, how many knots is that? And in my head is like, oh, how many pretzels is that gonna be?
A
But a pretzel knot is like a garlic knot, right? Garlic.
B
No, no.
C
Like when they hit that.
A
But. Or a pretzel itself is a knot.
C
Yes. Yeah.
A
Who is that guy to be like, look at this not.
B
And then we're going to make tiny little knots for the, for the bag. Pretzels. Nothing better than a fucking Hot. Nice pretzel while watching a movie.
A
Okay.
B
Really fill you up.
A
Where you get, oh, look at a movie theater. Pretzel. Like, I'm like, you're not having big. Has a whole pretzel machine in his house door.
B
It's actually, no, it's actually a great snack for a movie theater because like when you're watching a movie in a movie theater, you just like get super fucking hungry. You don't want to get up and like get a refill or whatever. I think the best thing to eat is a pretzel because that, it's just full of carbs. It fills you up. You don't have to eat candy.
C
You dunking in mustard or cheese?
A
Cheese with a hint of mustard. Icing, Zane. Okay.
B
Gloppy icing.
A
What do you mean, icing, boy? Where are we at Cinnabon movie theater?
B
Are you going to Annie's?
A
Annie Anne's, whatever.
B
Tomato, tomato. But it's not tomato though. Well, tomato oni ends Ivory. Every time I go there, I'm getting, I'm getting the cinnamon sugar. The cinnamon sugar pretzels in and out, dipped in icing. Root canal.
A
That's.
B
That is my, my way of.
A
Give me a mustard cup though. Don't make me go into a dark ass theater with a packet of mustard and I'm sitting there in the dark trying to just get a little dab of mustard on my prep. Yeah. Because if I'm, if I'm dipping it in a cheese dip. Love it. It makes sense. I can do that in the dark, no problem.
B
I can see mustard being like illegal in the future because I just think it's such an. A disgusting, horrid sauce to be eating with anything. What is like a second. Why is it like, I know it's like made out of mustard seeds, but like what is in it other than mustard seed? Like, what is like there's vinegar in it too, right?
C
Like, I think, I think it's one of like the only zero calorie sauces. So I mean, got to give it that.
A
So yeah. There's whole ground cracked and bruised mustard seeds mixed with water, vinegar, lemon juice, wine and other liquid salt and often poured.
B
It tastes like there's something else in it. Like all that. That sounds like a. That sounds like a balsamic vinegar dressing which I don't mind eating, but I don't know what is in the mustard that is like, oh, I want to, I want to wash my mouth out with acid right after.
A
Mustard could ruin a sandwich. Like it dominates like the Flavor of.
C
If there's too much, but it can.
A
Make a really bland thing taste pretty good. Like, I like it on a hot dog. That's like taking to the next level, and I like it.
B
That is crazy, because most people. I feel like if you ask every person in the world that eats a hot dog, what is the sauce that they put on it? It's mustard.
A
Yeah.
B
Which is crazy.
A
Mustard and ketchup.
B
I know mustard and ketchup. But, like, mustard is, like, the main sauce.
C
That's too much.
A
But if you're getting a hot dog and just putting ketchup on it, I don't want to talk to you, nor do I want to.
C
It's either. Okay. Hot dog with ketchup. Goaded. But if it's like a spicy sausage, hot dog type thing.
A
Okay.
C
Spicy brown mustard, relish, onion.
A
All right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I can. I can back that up.
C
It's. It's a. It's a. You know, it's a step above a normal hot dog.
B
You know how to really kill me. Like, execution style. If you were to put it like a hot. Like a hot dog in front of me, and the ingredients are mustard and sweet relish, to me, that's like, oh, electric chair. Like, that's your. Like, I'm taking a bite, and then you turn on the electric chair, and it's like, that's the worst way to go for me.
C
Zane. Getting waterboarded with just mustard drops.
B
Yeah.
A
Yeah.
B
No, no, no, no.
A
You know what relish should be? It should be pickles. Like, if you had. If there was pickle. Well, it is.
B
It's chopped pickle.
A
Is it?
B
Yes.
A
I never really gave relish the time of day.
B
It's like salsa. It's chopped up tomatoes.
A
Like pickles.
B
It is.
C
It do.
B
It does taste like pickles. You have to get the dill relish one. That's what it tastes like.
A
Hold on. Oh, wait, here's the thing. There's dill pickle relish. Damn it. Is it pickles? But why does it say that? It's just made from vegetables and fruits.
B
They only. They could put it in there. Yeah. Like, if you. If you open, like, a dull relish, like, container, you look inside it there has, like, little bits, pieces of, like, maybe pepper and maybe onion.
A
It just all tastes sweet to me. I want to taste more like a damn pickle.
B
It's like a. It's like a salsa chutney.
A
Okay.
B
You know what I mean?
C
Little hint of tomato. Little hit.
B
Okay. All right, let's roll the intro. But also while we're doing the intro, Heath, I. I've been holding my. I've been holding my tongue since we started. In this, in this room, I can never see your face. The camera, the camera is right in front of your face. So I'm going to move it.
C
Is that better?
B
I feel free now.
C
One, two, three.

It's cockatoo, baby.

A
How was Super Bowl? I mean I know you were not at the game but you were there for the festivities of the weekend.
B
I wouldn't even say like I definitely was there but it did not feel like I was at super bowl at all like because just like last year we all Float. We all fly in. We go to our hotel room. We're, like, in our house. Like, okay, it's. It's about. We're about to go to work. We go to. Habit is stationed in the same venue, but two different parties are happening. One party's Shaq's funhouse. The next day is the Sports Illustrated party. And. And we're just pretty much. It's like. It's just like. We're, like. We're with the food truck the whole time. We're just there with the mics, running around interviewing everybody, and it just. It really. It's crazy when you're in work mode. You just don't feel like you're a Super Bowl. Like, it doesn't feel like you're there. It just feels like you are on the side. And mind you, it was fun. It was fun to be with, like, the whole Habit team, but it's. It really felt like we were. We were home.
A
Yeah.
B
We were in. In the same city. Like, flying back there and then back. It didn't feel like anything. It was crazy.
C
That's true. Because it is a short flight. It's not like you were too. Too far away.
B
And. And just seeing, like, everybody there at this party both nights, I was just like, wow, people. Like, everybody here right now, Everybody's, like, drunk. Everybody's having a good time. You're just like, wow, these people have been waiting for months to be in here. Like, they've been waiting for months for this night. And we're just sitting here like, oh, but we're here. We're here working.
A
Y' all killed it, though. Your video looked amazing.
B
Oh, my. Yeah, dude, it. Alicia and I wore the same outfits both nights just to make it look like one night.
A
Yeah.
B
In the whole real. Even Alicia was really funny. Even Alicia got her hair styled by, like, a. A hair person to make it look like the same day. Um, I. And I also realized that espresso martinis, that's the way to go before you do street interviews like that. It is, like, literally the secret weapon.
A
Oh, yeah.
B
Espresso martinis. It gets you going.
A
Did you see any celebrities there at the parties, or was it mostly just, like, normal people?
B
Matt, it's really funny. I didn't see one person. I. There was. There was one tiktoker that I like that I saw that we passed by each other.
C
Hey.
B
Hey. One person the whole weekend.
A
Oh, wow.
B
Which is pretty crazy because there was a lot of people there. I did see Maura from Traders at the Sports Illustrated From Traders was there. Oh, wowed by her.
A
That.
B
That was probably the craziest celebrity I saw.
A
And they interviewed CD Lamb.
B
We interviewed CD Lamb. I didn't know who CD Lam was when they brought because habit had a few people that were. Do that were part of the campaign that. And part of it was like, that we could interview them was like, oh, cool. Okay. So we had CD Lamb. We had Clark and Taylor from last season of Love Island. I didn't watch it, so I, like, you know, I didn't. But it's good that I didn't know any of them because it, like, made it, like, less.
A
You had no nerves?
B
No nerves, yeah. It was just like the cd. It's so funny. Terror was like, I can't believe CD Lamb. Like, who?
A
Who?
B
But that's only because, like, you know, I don't watch. Like, I don't know anybody in any football. Like, literally the only people I know is, like, Tom Brady. Like, when I think of, like, a football player, Tom Brady, this was like.
A
The first Super Bowl I'd ever watched where I did not know, like, really a single player at all on each team. I mean, one kid's from, like, my hometown, but that was, like, it.
C
There was.
B
There was not, like, a big football.
A
Star in any team compared to, like, past Super Bowls. I feel like I've always known at least one hot shot in the game, but this one, I'm like, I don't know.
B
Who are you going for again? I think you told me I went for Seahawks. You went for Seahawks.
A
Because Patriots always win.
B
They're like, the underdog. Right? Seahawks. Have they ever been. This was their super.
A
Second super bowl that they've ever won. They have been to past Super Bowls, and I don't know when the one that they won before when that was, but yeah, got it. This was the first one. Did you get to watch the game at all while editing?
B
While I was. We went straight to. Because. Because we needed the video to go up as soon as possible, just like last year. So we literally. We finished Saturday night, flew out the next morning, went straight here, and I went straight to Alicia. Me and Alicia just kept editing while the game was going on.
C
Okay. A little viewing party.
A
While we're.
B
A little viewing party. Yeah.
A
It was the most uneventful super bowl, though, I think I've ever watched. Like, just the Patriots couldn't get any points on the board. It got to a point where I started rooting for the Patriots just to see some action take place.
B
I know I, I. The only the only thing I actually sat and watched where we like took a break and watched was the.
A
The halftime show, which was lovely. Amazing.
B
Okay, so watching through the screen, amazing.
A
I.
B
It was such a good, well put thing. Like the grass and all. That was so sick. And I think they. They presented like that, like Puerto Rico and just like that.
A
The whole culture of it. The culture was.
B
Was really, really, really good. It, like, it honestly felt like. I mean, this is what it just felt like. It felt so like Miami too. Like, I imagine seeing this halftime super bowl in like a Miami game. Like if it would have been sick.
C
If it was at like a stadium in Miami.
B
Yeah, that's what I felt like I was watching. It was. It was sick.
C
You could tell though, that the whole thing was done for tv. Like, yes, like, very, very good though. Like, I'm sure nobody in the stands could really see what was going on with like the drop through and like everything in the grass. But on tv it looked phenomenal.
B
I did. I did watch different video, different people's perspective from the. I'm. I'm not gonna lie, it was a pretty shitty.
A
Like, that was my com. My only complaint about it and my only complaint last year, even though both Kendrick Lamar and Bad Buddy's performances were awesome. It's. I wish the performances were more for like the stadium itself than for the camera, but I understand that there are more people watching on TV that. Than there are at the Super Bowl. But If I spent $15,000 on a ticket at the Super Bowl, I want to see the concert.
B
Like the Grammys, the Oscars. I. Everybody's there. No one's paying for tickets to go to the Oscars, to the Grammys. It's an award show. Everybody's there. You accept your award also. Everybody there, they don't really care too. Like, they're. They're. It's almost like a feel like it's like a business ceremony, you know, it's like, you know, who's the best of the best in our industry? Super bowl people are paying so much money to be there. If I paid $15,000 to be there and I put my like, life savings into. Because this is just like such an important game to me. And I wasn't able to see like the halftime show like that or in like the same way that the viewer did, I'd be pretty bombed. I'd like, oh, damn, that stinks.
C
I wonder if they had that on a feed on the Jumbotron.
A
Like the.
C
What they were for tv. Yeah, they had to have that up so people could like, see. I'm sure, right?
A
Yeah, I'm sure. I like the creativity they're doing these days. But like, how about we make it both cool for the camera and for the venue itself?
B
Remember? I forget who maybe I think it was Rihanna's year. Was it just her?
A
Oh, yeah, Rihanna. Everyone could see that. You could be up in the nosebleeds and felt like she was eye level to you.
B
That felt like you're watching a mega church.
A
Just like, oh, boom.
B
Like, to me that's a halftime show. Like, that's because you need to make it fun for the. For people that are there that paid thousands of dollars and the.
C
Yeah, just make it like the spongebob bubble bowl, dude.
A
Yeah, that's what we need.
B
Yeah. But this was. I would also. This was like one of the first times I have ever. Actually, this is the first time I've ever seen Bad Bunny really perform form. Because I've never like really looked up his videos or music videos or anything just because I. I did Bad Bunny perform at Coachella a couple years ago. Or was. Or is that. Or I think he did.
A
I don't know.
B
Maybe that was like really the only time I like saw him. But I was like. I think I was walking by. This was truly like sitting. Watching that whole 15 minute show him. He is a great performer. Yeah, he hit just the way that he's like the way that he's just singing the way he's. Because a lot of people, like, they cannot do that shit live.
A
No, it's tough.
B
And I felt like there was not one ounce of lip syncing in there right now.
A
That was all Gaga too. Unbelievable.
B
Just like to me, that is. I mean, that is so fudgeing. That's talent, like being able to remember where to go and all the moves and just everything. Also remembering all your fucking lines and the way the songs.
A
It's just in Green Days opening so great too. And I felt like the crowds were actually like real. I hate stage crowds. And especially like things like the super bowl where they have people like, you know, the hands are so coordinated and everyone just feels like they're like actors to be in a crowd. I felt like everyone there in the beginning was like genuinely rocking out with.
B
I'm sorry, Green Day.
C
Before they did. Before the game started. It was like a pre performance.
B
Got it. We missed the whole. We missed the whole beginning when we got.
C
It was right. It was right before Charlie Puth.
B
I didn't. I didn't know that was.
A
Dude.
B
Yeah.
C
We did the national anthem.
B
Charlie Puth's national anthem was like.
C
His voice is crazy.
B
Oh, damn. Okay, I got it. I, I thought, I thought I saw everything. I guess I didn't.
A
You missed out. Did you see any of the commercials?
B
A few. A few. We were really locked in on the editing, but I think some of the ones that I saw were. Some of the ones I saw, I already saw already, which is really weird.
C
Yeah, they released them early on TikTok, so that was like, why Bummer.
B
Why would you do that? You want everybody. Because a lot of people, A lot of people watch the commercials too. They want to see it for the first time. Like Sabrina Carpenter's Ritz commercial that I, I saw it everywhere before the Super Bowl.
C
They've been doing that. They did that last year too.
B
God, they shouldn't do that. I guess you want to make an incentive for people to want to watch. Like, bring in more eyes.
A
But I guess they have done studies where they think if you have, like, maybe seen a tease of something before and you're recognizing it again on the tv, you're gonna watch it.
B
It wasn't a tease. It was a full commercial. Like, I, I, I, like a lot of the commercials I saw, I felt like I saw the whole thing already.
A
But all the commercials, dude, most AI based geo terrible, like, crypto, gambling stuff. It's like, this is the state of the world where we're at in America. We're like, this is where we're shelling out everything.
B
I thought the same thing. I was like, this is crazy.
C
Also, I'm so sick. The whole theme, I feel like for every commercial was to do a younger throwback AI version of these actors. And I was like, dude, who is this for?
B
Obviously Jennifer. Like, all, like, all those actors obviously approved it, but I'm surprised that their team approved that. Like, if I feel like if I was any of these people, I'd be like, no, what? Like, why don't you just have us in the commercial? I think it's gonna look so much better. Even if you were to, like, make them look younger, like, with, with, like, the hair and the clothing and keep them, like, keep them there, like, keep them looking the same age. I think it would have looked even better. It, like, didn't, like, I don't know why they would do that.
A
Yeah, there was a big, what's it called? The uncanny, like, valley, like, effect.
C
And then the. Did you see the Jurassic park one?
A
Yes, I did. Yes. That was another one where they're just like, AI Ing their faces, which I.
C
Don'T even know what.
A
And then sometimes there's commercials that are playing. You're like, what is even being advertised right now, too? You don't even know what it is they're promoting.
B
It's really interesting. I've noticed that, like, in the past couple years, everybody's constantly going back in time. Like, even all the celebrities, like, outfits for the Grammys, for the Oscars, for the. They always are wearing outfits that somebody already wore 20, 30 years ago. Like, they're like, bringing it back.
C
Like, or they're inspired by honoring or paying homage.
A
Yeah.
B
And it's like, damn, we can't come up with anything original anymore. It's tough. You know, I just think everything's been done. Like, what? Like, what do you do?
A
My favorite was Lays. That was my favorite one. That one, actually.
C
That was the cute one right? Where it was like the dad and.
A
The daughter difference in the bag.
B
Yeah.
A
This is your farm now. Oh, it was just so sweet. It made me cry. I loved it. The Lays, they knocked it out of the park. I love one that just touches my heart.
B
Was it based on a true story?
A
I don't. You know what? I bet there was probably a true story behind it. Well, I think the. It was based on that lay's sources, their potatoes from, like, true family farms and stuff. And they wanted to, like, pay homage first.
B
Yes, we do. In the beginning.
A
See? Oh, yeah. It was inspired by New Miller Farms in Illinois, a family farm that Pepsi has worked with for decades. Third generation potato and vegetable farm. It was just sweet.
B
How did we feel about the Coinbase commercial?
A
Which one? The back. Was it the Backstreet Boys?
B
The karaoke?
C
I actually, I didn't see that one.
A
I didn't mind it because I thought it was funny. Yeah, it was. It went into, like, straight old school karaoke. And it was basically doing Backstreet Boys. I want it that way. And every while you're watching it, there's a moment where you think, is something wrong with the tv? Like, did someone truly switch it to karaoke mode? And you're kind of singing along with it and then it has like a Coinbase logo at the end.
B
But you, you know, coy, you know, the team sat that sat there coming up with this idea, and they're like, oh, wait, first of all, we're gonna get everybody in the stadium probably singing to this. We're gonna get. All the super bowl parties are happening in people's houses. Just start singing it. Because it's like when you See a karaoke screen like that, you just want to sing it.
A
Like you want to participate.
B
You want to participate. And they knew that the minute you saw the word coinbase, everyone's gonna go, oh, just like that. Like, just like, like that. That group.
A
Group.
B
Oh, and I like, you know, that they thought that was hilarious.
A
But we all remembered it because the whole time you're thinking, what is this going to turn into? What is this going to turn into? Yeah, and then it's coinbase. But it was creative. Ish.
B
Ish. It was, it was like, it was lazy, but at the same time it was, it was pretty genius. Like, it was like, you don't, you don't see that as a commercial, but that was it.
A
Where are the good super bowl ads? Where's the. What's up? I want something that is just like iconic for the whole year to truly remember. It becomes a staple of culture. Yeah, it was. I don't know.
B
Did they have a good, I feel like Doritos. A lot of times they have like one of the best commercials. Did they have a good?
C
Doritos is usually good. I don't know if I saw one this year.
B
Oh, there was no Doritos this year.
C
I didn't notice one.
A
It all just becomes a bit of a blur. I just don't like the huge star studded ones where it's like, oh, we have this celebrity. We have this celebrity. Oh, is Lady Gaga. Seeing Jigglypuff was kind of cool. Like, I don't know. I never thought that would happen, but it did.
B
How much are commercial spots again?
C
Oh, the, the Chris Hemsworth one. I'm just looking down at it right now. Was that the one that was to do with the missing dogs?
A
No or.
C
No, that was ring camera.
B
The minute I saw it, like, dude, I might. I switched so quick at first I was like, oh, that's amazing. I'm surprised they didn't come up with that. Wait a second. This is so good.
C
I had the same reaction with the Chris Hemsworth one where it was like watching him, like walk in and like recognizing what he's doing. And I was like, it's a little weird. And then he has the whole paranoia thing, like, about it, and then they, like, make him feel, like, silly for being paranoid about it in the commercial.
B
Wait, wait, I'm curious of what you're talking about, Heath.
C
The Chris Hemsworth Alexa one.
B
I didn't watch that one.
A
Oh, yeah, I remember this on tv, but I was just like, is that his wife? I don't know, the whole time I.
B
Was focused on what was the premise of this commercial.
C
He basically, like, walks in the house, the camera on the Alexa, like, sees that he was, like, doing something and it addresses what he has, like, in his hand. And he, like, freaks out about having an Alexa in the house. And then he, like, does this whole paranoid speech about what he thinks, like, is going to happen. And it, like, starts cutting back and forth to, like, these paranoid, like, visions.
B
And it's all about how Alexa can kill him, which is like, really dark.
C
Very, very like Final Destination type deaths that he thinks, like, Alexa is going to kill him or it's going to, like, do something.
B
Got it.
C
And then he ends up thinking it's a good idea to have this Alexa in the house that can, like, see him.
B
And it was just, like, unwarranted, like, like you. Without having to activate Alexa. Yeah, but I feel like it was always activated even before we said, hey, Alexa, you know what I mean? Like, it was just like kind of. We all just kind of knew that. But also the, the dog one was really interesting for Ring camera.
C
Yeah.
B
If you, like, they had a commercial where Ring has it, where when you like, imagine your dog ran out, right?
A
Yeah.
B
If you put it into your, like, Ring app, like, I lost my dog. Can you please help me? Everybody's camera pretty much turns on, like, what was it again?
A
Can look out for. The dog thinks.
C
Yeah. It sinks everybody in the area and will pick up if that dog was on somebody's Ring cameras, like, obviously super beneficial, I get it. But also, like, little weird.
B
You. Well, it's. It's not. That's not weird. It's what you can. It's people taking advantage of it for something bad. What's the word?
A
Perversion, exploitation, corruption.
B
But then also, like, if you're doing that, I'm sure only to ask the people around you.
A
I bet it's a feature when you're signing up for the Ring app because do you want to contribute to the community monitoring? If somebody loses something, you can contribute to your footage to solve a problem.
B
Yeah, yeah, exactly. And they're not going to allow you to have cameras like, in another neighborhood. You know what I mean? So, like, everybody that has their camera, everybody, I feel like kind of is aware of each other.
C
I think it's a green light to get you to turn on that home monitoring thing into the application of it for the sake of helping pets. But there's more shit on the back end that you're saying yes to.

A
You know who was at the Super Bowl? Little Dr. Pepper girl. Romeo, provide a cocoa.
B
I'm sorry, I.
A
Wait, you're already over it?
B
No, I'm not over her. I. I'm just so annoyed and frustrated that Dr. Pepper didn't do anything with her for the Super Bowl. Well, like what? Dr. Pepper owns Vita Coco, and that.
A
Was her second video she made.
B
All right, so Dr. Pepper owns Vita, a Vita Coco, whatever. Still, I don't think it was a good call at all to do Vita Coco. Why didn't she do Dr. Pepper? Why didn't they have her do?
C
Because they're trying to push that new Vitacoco.
A
You'll go look good.
B
But it didn't hit.
C
They're making it hit.
A
It got one point, like 5 million likes as well on the video. I mean, it delivered.
B
I think it's because she did something else I don't like. If that was first, this would have never popped off. This popped off only because Dr. Pepper's popped off.
A
Correct. But I don't know. They just promoted another product, Haver.
B
You know, I just don't think it Was a good call.
C
Okay.
B
I don't think it was a good call. Like, it was like. To me, it was kind of, like, dirty. It was like, oh, you know what? Dr. Pepper is too good. We're gonna throw her a Vita Cocoa. To me, that's how I saw it. I was like, oh, no, she's not.
A
Let's.
C
Let's.
B
Let's push her to Vitacoco instead. You know what I mean? It was like, oh, let's. Let's do plan B instead. Dr. Pepper is. I don't know.
C
Matt, I was gonna ask you, how was the. The Kid Rock show?
A
Didn't tune in. Did not tune into Kid Rock.
B
I thought you were subscribed to tpa.
A
Tpa?
B
What is it? Tpa?
A
I was curious. There was a. There was a moment, though, during. I was like, can someone just pull it up? Because I want to see how many people are actually watching it.
C
Yeah, and a lot of people for fake views, too. How do you.
B
Yeah, how do you watch it?
A
I think.
B
Was it on YouTube or is there, like.
C
They had a. A YouTube live stream of it and they came out saying that they were, like, the second biggest live stream in.
A
The YouTube history, but they.
C
The. The top ones are all like, soccer for World Cup. Yeah, it's like, there's no way you're competing anywhere near that.
A
Yeah, I think at the end of the night, we checked to see how many viewers it had, and I think it was like 4 million, 5 million around that.
B
There's no.
A
But then they're claiming, oh, but, you know, it was streamed in other places, so it was much more than that.
B
Dude, it's so hard to get that type of number in the moment. Yeah, I. I could see them getting that total for the whole. Fucking. The whole entire time, but at once, not possible. Buy it a coco, you go loco. Is this so damn delicioso? Okay, maybe it's catchy. Maybe it's catchy. I don't agree with it, but it's catchy.
A
See, I just.
B
I like Dr. Pepper's song better, though. It's good on.
A
Nice.
C
That's your remake.
A
That's the Zane remix.
C
Oh. Have you guys been watching any of the Olympics?
A
Yes, I have.
B
A little bit.
A
A little bit. I've watched some figure skating and. What else did I watch? Oh, and just some, like, luge, but that's it.
C
Yeah, I've been. I've been tuning in. You know, I've been. I've been on my. My curling game.
B
Okay.
C
Really, really getting dialed in on that.
B
Playing that in the backyard.
C
I used to think it was so dumb when I was younger, but as I've gotten older, when you watch it and you're just seeing the way they scrub that ice, getting that thing to hook, break, speed up, dude. There's a lot that goes into it. It's pretty. It's pretty awesome.
A
Yeah, it's fascinating. I never knew that like the ice is like pebbled up in like a certain way compared to like normal, you know, like hockey ice or figure skating ice. It's a whole different type of ice. Right.
C
So cool. And then the shoes they wear where they're just like. It looks like they're on Heelys. Yeah. When you like when they go like back to the starting point and they're just like gliding, they're like pushing. Pretty sick.
A
I mean, it's physically like for them to be able to be walking while putting that much weight onto curling brooms at the same time. It's not easy. Yeah, it's not easy. And so much communication as well, because I think what they're doing is they're shaving down the pebbles bit by bit just to get that, that curling puck.
B
But then, but then when they want to slow down, they just stop. Right? They like if.
A
Yes, yes. There's like hard, hard, easy. And then.
B
Heath, please tell me more about this new curling journey that you're on. Where are you doing this?
C
No, I'm not doing it. I just. I just think it's so fascinating that people grow up in the sport and like.
B
Oh, God. So you're watching it? You're just watching it.
C
Okay, fan.
A
I'm doing curling at the end of this month.
C
Really?
A
Yeah, I think somewhere, maybe in like Ventura or like Van Nuys, I think.
C
Oh, like, see, I didn't even know there was like courts for it that you could just go.
B
Yeah, courts here for it.
A
Yeah, you can. I mean, my sister in law like found it and set it up and asked if I wanted to go do it. So we're gonna be curling. Oh, this month.
B
But you're. And you're gonna have to like obviously practice how to like move. Wow.
A
Great learning experience.
B
I can't wait to see that. Should be fun.
C
Did you see what happened on Lindsey Vaughn's comeback?
A
No, I heard that she crashed and I know that she was competing on already a torn acl. Right.
C
Why were so. She was like, she retired back in like 2019.
B
Why were people. I did see people were upset with her. They're like just even did it that she. Yeah. She went with a torn acl. They were like, oh, she's taking other people's opportunities. But I was like, is she. Is she though?
A
I don't know. I think if you worked that hard to get up to that point and yes, you have a torn acl. And they're probably like, you shouldn't do this. I bet some people in the past have historically competed on a torn acl.
B
Yeah.
A
And achieved. And I think that was probably in her head. This is my. All my assumption. And she was like, it. I'm just gonna do it because I'm already at this point. Why not just give it a go?
B
Yeah.
A
And she fell and.
B
But what.
C
But like, like bad people were like, helicoptered out.
B
Damn.
A
Oh, that's.
B
I mean, after. I mean, when you. When you crash like that on a torn acl, that's it, right?
C
Yeah.
A
Sucks.
B
It was her last hurrah. I mean, look, at least she. At least you tried. Yeah, to me. To me, that's that. I. I see. I see a.
C
She's also 41.
A
Like, yeah, that definitely was your last Olympics. You gotta, like, do it, but. Oof. I hope she's healing okay.
B
She does not look forward to you. She looks good.
A
I do know that there's been like a. Or just some scandal or some talk about the, you know, the Olympic ski jumpers. The people who, you know, go on the long distance. Long distance ones.
B
The long. Wait. Where they. Where they.
C
They just like go completely flat and just like fly through the air.
B
But.
A
Yeah.
B
Oh, they.
A
Oh.
B
So it's like the ramp. They fly through the air and then they land. Okay.
A
And they're just flying. So basically, a German newspaper build reported that. That some male ski jumpers may be injecting high oluronic acid into their penises before suit measurements. The idea is that it can increase circumference by 1-2 cm, which would slightly increase the surface area of their ski suits. Now, since ski suits are tightly regulated and measured against the bodies, the athlete's body, including crotch height, even small changes could theoretically improve aerodynamics and flight distance. Dana, we already looking into the.
B
I don't know.
A
He's hitting up his doctor like circumference.
C
I mean, trying to get that girth, you know.
A
And the big thing is that the acid is. Isn't currently banned in the sport in the World Doping Agency said it could investigate if there's evidence of this being used.
B
Sorry, I missed. I think half of it. But how does a girth, your penis help you with the skiing?
A
Makes you more aerodynamic. The girth. The girth, I guess because it's covering, it's adding, like, a little bit more distance.
C
I'm starting to get a feeling that it has nothing to do with it.
A
And they're just like, come.
B
They're coming up with a excuse, I gotta.
C
I gotta do it for my suit, you know, because I. I wouldn't. I wouldn't.
A
But would they have to measure your penis, like, at a certain date and then measure it at a later date just to see if there was any growth?
B
And who's measuring these penises, huh?
A
Right. And what are the conditions? Is it already cold? Yeah, it's already cold out there. You know, I'd be like, listen, it's normally not like this. It could be like they gotta fluff.
B
You up because they really need to see full size to see if you're doing it, if you're doing the injections or not.
C
That's crazy.
B
The error. I just don't believe that.
A
Yeah. And so I think it was the. The Norwegian athletes and coaches have largely reacted with skepticism and embarrassment, saying they haven't seen any proof and don't want that kind of attention on the sport. The one athlete basically said, if this is what it takes to get people to watch ski jumping, that's sad.
B
Damn. But here's the thing. Those Olympic athlete villages, they get crazy. They do maybe want their things a little girthier. Maybe that's what the. The girlies want in the athlete village. You know what I mean?
C
If you told me that the people in pole vaulting were doing that, okay, you would honestly need a reduction.
A
You need a reduction in that.
C
Right, Right.
A
Because it can get in the way. Yeah, but I. Yeah. This is crazy. This level of, I don't know, gaming the system when it comes down to the penis.
B
That. That, to me, this seems like some shit like you'd see on the onion. It, like, doesn't make sense to me. How does it help when it is covered?
C
I'm guessing. I'm guessing it gives you a bigger suit in that area. And then when you're, you know, genitalia goes back to its normal size, you've got extra fabric there for spread, for, like, aerodynamics, like a wingsuit almost.
B
Okay, okay. Or.
C
Or they just want a bigger.
B
No, no, no, no, no. Wait, wait. I was going.
A
I just. Like, I don't know.
C
Yeah.
A
That's kind of crazy that that small of a difference would.
C
But what was. What was going through the coach's mind where he's like, guys, Bring it in. I got an idea.
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Which freak came up with that idea, huh? I think, I think whatever coach came up with this, I think he wanted to see a little bit more than he usually gets me out.
A
But yeah, it basically says every extra centimeter on a suit counts. If your suit has a 5% bigger surface area, you fly further.
C
But, you know, they're getting 5% gains on this thing.
B
Honestly, guys, think about it. If I had to wear a skin tight thing for the Olympics, and I'm like, just. I'm not, I'm not feeling too confident about the size. And I can, I can make it a little girthier so it looks a little better on camera. I might. I think that guy that did the pole vaulting, when that dick wouldn't hit that thing, I think he started a move like, he was just like. I think everybody was like, I want my dick to do that too.
C
Gotta step it up.
B
Exactly. Also, I think a part of it is also confidence, because how do you do when you have confidence? You perform better. So I have a feeling when they know that their is looking good through these outfits, I think in their head, oh, I'm gonna knock this out of the park part and look big doing it.
C
I think you're on to something.
B
I think I'm trying to, I'm trying to think of how I would see this situation. I go, oh. If I look down, I'm like, oh, my looks good. I'm gonna probably perform very, very well. And that's with everything, you know what I mean? If I knew I had like a big, big thing, I'd walk around with a little bit of pride.
A
I'm curious, how long does it last, the little injection? Like, is it like both? Yeah, you wouldn't want to get it like every few months. I mean, I am curious how long does it last?
B
Last? I could see it lasting for like the month, for the month of the games.
C
Matt, did you see the Norwegian guy? I forget what sport he was for, but he was like getting interviewed after getting like a bronze medal. And they're just like, you know, how you feeling? Whatever. He's like, you know, feeling good. And it was all translated, but he was like, feeling good. I just, I met the love of my life six months ago and I, I cheated on her and I just, just. I just want her back. And the, the news guy was just like. And this guy's just breaking down in tears and he's just like venting, but.
B
He was speaking another language and.
A
Whole moment about Basically how he wants to get his ex back because he cheated on her. Yes, sir. Love. That's his name, right? I. I saw the press, you know, junket of him after, in a way, apologizing, saying that wasn't the best thing because his teammates got mad at him. Him. Because they caught this whole moment went viral, and everyone was focusing on what this guy was saying about him cheating, celebrating the other athletes, and he just kind of took over their spotlight in the whole, like, he thought that was.
C
Gonna get her back. I don't know.
A
What?
B
Crazy. Oh, my God.
C
Yeah, he just fully started venting.
B
Did the guy. Did the translator. Oh, was it translated on tv or.
C
Was it, like, it was just closed captions?
B
Oh, okay.
C
Okay. So you could just, like, read what he was saying.
B
Oh, boy.
A
I mean, golly. If that's what motivated you, though, to, like, try a little harder, practice being like, I'm gonna get a medal and I'm gonna get her back.
B
But. And. But you know what? He's.
A
He's.
B
He's being punished for it. I mean, I. I don't think there's nothing good that comes out of an interview like that. That. That will always resurface.
C
That's like something like. I think he was watching a little bit too many movies.
A
Yeah.
B
His future girlfriend, his future wife is gonna see that interview. It's just like, I think he. He's being punished for sure.
A
He was not thinking. And if you were.
C
But imagine, like, her. Her.
A
She's probably like, what?
C
Like, her friends calling her up. Like, you're not gonna believe this. Girl, turn your TV on right now.
B
Girl, you're on the Olympics. What do you mean you're on the Olympics?
C
Turn it on.
B
Just turn it on.
A
Oh, my gosh. That group chat with her friends must have been going crazy. Oh, they were probably all on FaceTime doing a whole conference, dude.
B
You know, they felt like, oh, girls rule the world. We run. Dude, if I. I made someone so upset where they're on Olympic, national, Olympics, national tv, trying to get me back.
C
So funny.
B
Like, what a conversation. Starting starter for her, too. If everywhere she goes. How'd she break the ice? Oh, you know, I was on the Olympics once. You're an Olympian? Well, here, just look. And she pulls up the interview. Yeah, he's talking about me. That's great.
A
I think if he said nothing, he could have maybe won her back. But by him saying something, it was just weird. Like, you had it, buddy. Or like, you know, I as you should never get back with someone who cheated on you ever. But if you are playing it that hard in your head thinking, if I get a medal, I can win her back.
B
One of the many things guys just think works. We, there's a lot of things we saw Kev, but that is one of them. Like if you, you like him thinking that if he just on national television said that it would win her back, look, there's not one moment, there's not one girl that would look at that and be like, that was hot.
C
I also don't know if, like, that was his idea or if he was just so full of emotion and like all he could think about was her.
B
Could be that.
C
And like, he just, just, it just started coming out.
B
All right, brief pause for a sponsor. Momentous if, like me, you made a resolution to take your health seriously this year, but now feel like you might be hitting a bit of a wall or looking for an edge to speed the process, a great place to find that boost is with supplements. But not all of them are equal or playing by the same rules. It's so important to trust what you're taking. But choosing the right supplements can be confusing and it doesn't help that they that supplement industry itself often has a bad reputation. It's slightly regulated and some products don't even have to list everything on the label. That's why we partnered with Momentous. They've built a reputation as the high trust option in a low trust space and they've set their own bar very high by creating the Momentous standard, by doing things the right way, not the easy way. They use serious ingredients like whey from grass fed European dairy cows, creatine made from the purest form of creatine monohydrate and formulas built on clinically backed bioavailable nutrients with no fillers and or artificial sweeteners. But what truly sets Momentous apart is their testing and transparency. Every product is independently certified by NSF for sport or informed sport and verified for label accuracy so you know what you're putting in your body. And if it doesn't meet their standard, it doesn't shit. If you want supplements you can truly rely on this year, Momentous is it. Right now, Momentous is offering our listeners up to 35% off your first order with promo code UNFILTERED. Head to livemomentous.com and use promo code UNFILTERED for up to 35% off your first Order.

B
Oh, I do too.
C
Okay.
B
Is it about our high school?
C
No. Is there something about our high school that happens?
B
Yeah. But here, you want to go first?
C
I just got. It's a really like crazy cool, just heartfelt story that it's like, it's a, It's a Florida feel good story.
B
Oh, okay.
A
Okay.
B
Well, I'm going to. It's. I'm definitely going to.
C
Do you want to start with yours and then I'll bring it back up?
B
Yeah, yeah, let me start. Let me start. Ok. So we just learned I think in the last like week that a teacher, South Plantation teacher, has been arrested for sending explicit photos to a minor.
A
Another one. Didn't like this just happen at Yale's high school?
B
Yes, yes, we have. We're not surprised though. You know, this is just, this is just how it is. South Plantation father. And when he's a father, he goes, let me help you with your homework. To sexual stuff. And then he started sending nudes. Oh my God.
A
Like to a 15 year old student.
B
He's 39.
A
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
B
Oh my goodness.
A
Oh my.
C
Oh, it was, it was this guy's daughter that it was happening to.
A
What? No. Like the dad came forward and like called out the teacher for. The father of the victim is speaking on behalf of his daughter. Oh.
B
He goes, my bad.
A
He goes. And I just lost it first. He started by saying, hey, let me help with your homework. To sexual stuff. And then started sending nudes.
C
What in the world?
B
Insane.
A
Also, why. How do teachers get their phone numbers of their students? Is that a thing these days?
B
Like that is not a thing. There's no way that's. That's a thing right now. There's no way it right.
A
There's not like a system where it's like, oh, I can have your number to text you guys to remind you of our homework assignments. Like that.
B
Inappropriate. Inappropriate. That's. There should be no type of conversation between a teacher and a student unless it's like through only emails. And the dad and talking about the.
C
Was friends with that teacher.
A
Oh my gosh.
B
Yeah. He was his son's football coach. I can't even imagine what I would do do what I would do if I found this out. This teacher was in this school. I. I can't even imagine what I would do going into that school.
A
Like, well, you would have to con. Like that's.
B
I don't know.
A
I don't know. Someone red handed. You have to go contact authorities because you can't like, go in and like, confront it.
B
I would contact authorities, but I'm going to the school first.
A
Oh, yeah.
C
I'd be like 91 1. What's your emergency? I'm on my way to the school right now to go kill someone. You better get there before me.
B
You better get there before me. Exactly. Oh, my God.
A
That's crazy.
B
And it's like. And the thing, the crazy thing is not just that, you know, he does other things before this incident, right? Yeah, We've been happening for years, dude, as a school start over, dude. We've had way too many different staff members call with in this.
C
They need to do like. There's got to be some sort of, like, audit. That can happen with all the teachers. This is like the second time in the last, like, like month, two months. We need to do a deep dive on everybody's shit. Bring your phones in right now.
B
Bring your phones, laptops, cars.
C
Everything.
B
That's insane.
A
Sick.
C
They caught that before it turned into something even worse.
B
Exactly.
C
Right. Because that's just like, that's introductory to what's to come and what this guy had planned.
B
What's crazy is that he didn't get caught.
A
He.
B
He did it. Do you know what I mean? Like, he.
C
No, no, he sent the stuff he.
B
Sent to thinking that, like, oh, this is. This is good. This is gonna work.
C
To bring it back up.
B
Yeah, bring it back up, please.
C
I got you. This just happened. There was a Florida lady, it was her birthday. She was pregnant, very close to, like, you know, giving birth. She was 33 weeks. She was on her way to a doctor's appointment, like, for the baby, right? And she wasn't feeling well while driving, so she started feeling like, faint, dizzy. And she ended up, like, veering off the road. Like, I don't know if she, like, lost consciousness while driving, but she veered off the road and ended up crashing her car into a pond.
A
Oh, no.
C
And was. Was drowning. Couldn't open her doors, couldn't get out full blown. Like. Like, obviously, like, it's. You're panicking, you're pregnant, it's your birthday, you're on your way to a doctor's appointment. And she said some passerby saw it and jumped into the water, swam like 30ft out to her car and pulled her out of the sinking car.
A
Oh, wow.
C
And she ended up going to the hospital and delivering her baby. Whoa. On that day, on her birthday, right after being rescued and saved. Oh.
A
Oh, praise be.
B
That's wild. That's like a movie Scene.
A
Oh, my God.
C
Unbelievable.
A
What a series of events. That is crazy.
C
She called and, like, FaceTimed the kid that pulled her out of the car as, like, like, look, this is my. I just had my. You just saved both of our lives earlier today. Wow. Thank you.
A
Give me the key to the city. That is unbelievable.
B
That brought this show back up. Good job, Heath.
C
Isn't that. That's unbelievable.
B
She should name. She should name her kid Poseidon.
A
Yeah, you know what? It could work.
B
Yeah, it could work. Or, you know, honestly, if I was her, I'd probably name the baby the name of the kid after the kid. Yeah, right.
A
Just to pay tribute for the good vibes and the good luck of all that, like, saved and brought grace to you the entire time.
C
Especially, like, nowadays, I feel like people. Nobody really stops to help people. Like, it's. You know, it's kind of. Most people are just busy, like, filming or just drive by, like, just.
B
Honestly, I really think it all depends on the situation. Right. I think if anybody saw a car go into a lake like that, and you saw it, I think it's. That's because. That's such, like, a. Because, you know, that it's all. It's all like. Like, that car is underwater. Okay. I. I can. I need to do this now. You can't wait for authorities or you can't wait for an ambulance to come help her route. When there's a car crash, you're kind of like. You slow it down to see if the person's like, okay, gets out of the car. Then you keep driving. You're like, okay, I'm not gonna. There's really not much I can do right now. And it's sure somebody will cover you. Call the 911.
A
And it's especially heroic to risk your own life in saving someone else's. Like, that is the biggest, like, risk of it all. You're like, oh, my gosh, I must do something. Oh, my gosh. I might lose myself within doing that. It's, like, the biggest act of heroism that you can do.
B
And he didn't have anything on him. How was he able to get in the car? Car?
C
I don't know if it was, like, breaking through the window situation or opening the door, but apparently she. I don't know if, like. Because when your car starts sinking, like, there's, like, pressure.
B
Yeah. You can't open the door or anything.
C
So I don't know. I don't. I don't know if the article really said how he got into it and, like, got her out.
B
But remember, remember how, how we used to. Obviously you remember. But our cars used to be the windows where you roll them, roll them down, down. In this situation like this. Are you able to roll down your window still if you had that in your car?
A
Yeah, yeah, probably. I feel like more movies in the past that was like the go to move of actually like manually taking down the window rather with you know, electronic windows.
B
I feel like one. I feel like one door should always have that.
C
Electric car. I think it might have been a Tesla, I don't know. It was an electric car got into a crash and like immediately caught fire. The driver jumps out the passenger seat. But there was people in the back and for some reason the back door wouldn't like open because the electronics like got fucked up or something because you know how it's like, it's not like a legit handle anymore. It's like that digital button that you push to like release it.
A
Oh yeah.
C
Like the electronics wouldn't work. So there they ran over, grabbed a rock and were trying to bust the back window open. The whole thing's on fire. It's smoking out of the car. And they ended up pulling all the people.
B
Those electric cars are so fucking dangerous when it comes like in a moment like that with so scary. They're actually making new legislation that they have to have physical door handles now because of incidents. Yeah, no, I mean that should have been. They already should have done that.
A
Makes sense.
B
Yeah. And then fun slash life saving fact.
A
You can open a car underwater once the car is fully submerged.
B
Because then the pressure inside and out, out are equal. Yeah, but you gotta like, you gotta time that right. You like holding your breath waiting for that water to fill up. That's, that's a little scary. I don't know if I could do that.
A
I have hammers on both of my side passenger doors. Like just in case. Just in case like the ones. And they also have like the razor blades on like the nook of them. If you need to like cut off the belts. I just have it just in case.
B
That's really good. That's good to have.
A
But my intrusive thoughts all the time, honestly. And just break the window.
B
I always wanted to use the glass, you know like attach the key. Yeah, always wanted to use that. We should have used that for the, the rage room that we did months ago.
A
Oh. Just to see it actually work.
B
Just to see like how it.
A
Yeah, but I know that like are those considered weapons though? Like can you even have them? Like if you Took your keys on a plane. Could you have that?
B
I don't think those are considered because a lot of people have them on their keys.
C
It's like a little, tiny little pin punch.
B
Yeah.
A
Only.
C
And it only comes out when you, like, push it up against something hard. It does like a.
A
Okay.
B
It's like a. Dude, it's like literally like a pin. Yeah, a pin you put on a board. It's like the same. It's like the same size. And.
C
Or just keep a bag full of crushed up spark plugs.
B
Crushed up spark plugs.
C
You ever seen that? People throw in, like, tiny little pieces of spark plugs at glass and it just shatters it. It even. Like tiny little pieces. I don't know what it is about it, but it just destroys glass.
B
Can I see. Can I see a video of that? I.
C
It's crazy that it works this well.
A
Are spark plugs expensive?
C
No. So you just take a little shard.
A
Okay. He's just picking up just. They look like little eggshell pieces.
B
Yeah.
A
They look like little shells here. Seashells, like, size.
B
There's no way this is taking tiny.
A
Fragments, like the size of a dime. And he's just has this.
B
There's no fucking way.
C
Hold on.
A
There was one. Boom.
B
Shut the fuck up.
A
How. How.
B
Is it heavy?
C
No.
A
Is it just like the. I don't know. Is it the material that it's made of or like the fragmentation of. It just maybe has so many jagged edges, it creates like.
C
I don't know how it works.
B
Good to know, Heath. I'm literally. I'm literally gonna have a bag of that in the car.
C
Isn't that crazy?
B
Dude? Imagine grabbing like a handful and just. Dude, it's almost like a. A. It's like a magic trick. It's like a. It's like a wizard trick.
A
So it's more about, like, the thermal, like, gradient of it. It deals with, like, hot and cold in a way. That's what I'm kind of getting from this huge paragraph.
B
What's the material of the.
C
I don't know if it's ceramic or what it is.
A
I think it's ceramic.
B
Ceramic.
C
It's just crazy, though, that you could just like, shatter it that easily. Like the whole thing.
A
Thing.
B
That's so funny, Heath. If he told. If you gave me a little piece, like, they're like, throw this at your window, I'd be like, okay. It doesn't even make sense.
A
Sometimes, yeah, tiny fragments can cause a whole window to shatter. I even remember one time my brother we Were out in the driveway of our house as a kid, and my brother was. Had his back down on his skateboard and he was going underneath my mom's car, like, you know, pretending like he was a mechanic.
B
Yeah.
A
And he picked up like a pebble of some sort underneath the car and then wheeled out on his back. Back and was like, we're all just hanging out and he's talking to us and he throws. He tries to throw the rock, like, over the car, but it ends up hitting the window in. The whole window just shattered.
B
Oh. So it was definitely. Probably that.
A
Who. Something like that. But who knows what type of material if it was a rock. But I remember my brother was like, it was a tiny ass pebble or whatever he picked up. But sure enough, the angle and the speed of how he just nicked the window, all of it. I'm surprised.
B
I know your parents beat that ass.
A
Oh, we were like second grade. It was though. My mom came out in a bathrobe and was just like, what the hell has happened? Oh, my gosh.
B
God, that is such a ass. Ass beating. Like, if I did that ass whooping. This shit's expensive, too.
A
Oh, yeah. To get a whole window replaced. Oh, boy.
B
Oh, man.
C
Yeah, but that's. That's when you do the. What is it?
A
A safe light repair.
B
Safe place. Love that. Love that damn commercial. Put that in the super bowl right before we continue.

A
Do you still play Candy Crush? No, you stop. Zayn, have you been playing and have you been spending any money? Because I saw an old TikTok of that time we talked about how much money you had.
B
Yes, and yes.
A
Can we. Have you figured out, have you spent.
B
I'd have to. I'd have to go and, like, add it up. You want me to give you, like.
A
An updated amount next episode? Maybe. If it's like, I don't know how much accounting you need to do to.
B
Figure it out, I'd have to do it myself.
A
But do you feel like it's less than what you were spending in the past because of that one moment you realized you had a problem? Or have you been like, it's more. It's probably just getting that rush. Get that sugar rush.
B
Probably more. I'm cutting sugar. So I thought play Candy Crush. Maybe that would help me. Me.
C
It's crazy. You're not over that game.
B
It's. It's. It comes in. It comes in waves, right? There'll be a wave where I play, like, for a month straight, and then I won't play for, like, three months straight. Yeah. So, like, it. I'll play once. I'm like, oo. And then.
C
Oh, I missed this.
B
Yeah, I miss this. And then I'll play for a lot of levels.
C
Okay.
B
And it's crazy because every level is the same goddamn thing. It's like. It's such a children's game. It's for kids, like, ages 4 and lower. It's like, it. It makes no sense how adults play that game, right?
C
It's. It's just be. Right.
B
No, no, it's like, it's match. No, no, it's way better than you match. It's.
C
It's.
A
That's Be. Candy Crush is Be.
C
It is, right?
A
No, I would. You're matching up jelly beans and not gems, dude. Oh, be. Sorry.
C
Sorry.
A
Yes, this is it.
B
Oh, my God.
A
Remember? Oh, my mom would play that. And.
C
No, no, it is way more.
B
Sorry, I thought be. I didn't. What was this on our iPhones.
A
I remember it was on.
C
It's an old PC game.
A
Yeah, my mom was playing this. You probably play it on iPads and everything now. But this was, like, before Candy Crush.
B
Damn.
A
Bejeweled.
B
Maybe Bejeweled owns Candy Crush.
A
Who Knows it could be the game I've been getting into. The New York Times has this game called Crossplay, which is basically like Words with Friends.
C
I just downloaded it.
A
Oh my gosh, I am addicted. I can only have. Have like four games going with a certain group of friends. But it's Crossplay. It's just like Scrabble. You know, they give you your tiles, you're playing against someone else. The design of it is better. Words with Friends is always like very clunky and childish looking because it's New York Times. It's just really sleek and minimal looking. But oh my gosh, I can't get it out of my head sometimes. Oh, but with any Scrabble, it's always people who are good at it are the ones who figured out, oh, like a cute. Like these words with Q and Z that are only like two or three letters. Letters. Once you get those words in your, you know, database that you can retrieve from, that's when you're the, you know, king of it.
C
And connections is my game though, that every day. That's the first one that I want to play.
A
Good on you sometimes Connections. If I don't get on the first one, I'm out. Like, I'm just like, this never happened. I'll do wordle every day.
B
Can't wait to play. Just downloaded it.
A
Well, play me.
B
Look, look, a pretzel.
A
Oh, there you go. That'll be your avatar. I don't even think I've picked one for myself yet.
B
He. Look at this to be my new avatar. It's a garlic knot, but it's nice.
A
But the rush you get when you play those tiles down and you get like over 30 points on it. You feel good.
B
You're telling me. You're telling me, baby. I get a rush any game. Oh, look at that. Zanier.
C
Hey, do you like. Do you like p. Pips.
A
Pips. That's the dominoes looking one. I have never spent enough time to sit down to really understand it, but because it's more of like a visual numbers pattern game, I don't like it. I like ones that I feel like I'm retrieving knowledge from my brain to play out. Like, I like this.
C
I like it because you. It takes a while. Like, you have to sit there and work it. You try out.
B
Is it like, is this just dominoes or is it like a different form?
A
It's almost Sudoku esque in a way.
C
Yeah, you're like trying to solve the puzzle of like how to make all these pieces Fit. And there's only one way to make it work.
B
Work. Okay.
C
There's something about it where it's like, it hurts sometimes. And I'll get so frustrated. I'm like, why can't I solve this?
A
And you're doing like basic math. You're just making sure that this times that equals this and then that.
C
No, it's. It's even worse.
B
Yeah, you're just connecting the numbers. Look, it's like dominoes, but you're just.
C
And it has to be like these two numbers have to be the same number. This one and this one has to equal this number. This number here is this number. And you have to arrange the dominoes in a way. Say that it solves the layout.
B
Oh, boy.
C
Matt, I think you would like it.
A
You should try it now. Now you're getting me kind of tickled to give this a go.
B
Who puts these games together? This is insane. It has to be AI like, like, how do you.
A
They have a whole team at. Of the New York Times, the people who specialize in games.
B
I feel like it's AI now. No, I feel like you can easily create an AI Crossword now. Crossword puzzle. Sure, easily. You can make a whole app these days through AI.
C
I'm not. I'm not crazy about strands.
A
Strands.
C
Yeah.
A
I don't care for that either.
B
Oh, is that the one where you.
C
It's. Yeah, it's like that kind of like there's like a theme and then the theme's always something weird. You're trying to like, figure it out.
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
C
Do you have the membership?
A
Yes, I do. I pay like I'm 40. 40 a year. And you just get all the games.
B
Yeah, it's worth it.
A
It's so worth it. Especially because I feel like they're charging like $10 a month. Like I'd rather pay. Yeah, $40 for the whole year. And you get it. And they do have packages like with the New York Times as well, where you get the subscription it and the games.
B
And if you have phases, it's still worth it. Because if you have a phase where you play two months straight and then you don't play for like six months, you still get all like all that in that two month span. You're like, ooh, that was worth 40 bucks.
C
Girl math.
B
Yeah, that's boy math.
A
I've been wanting to play like all my old childhood CD ROM games. They're now like on iPhone, like, you know, like Putt Putt and like Pajama Sam and like Freddy Fish, Pajama Sam. Pajama Sam. No one ever knows. Pajama Sam. There was all part of humongous entertainment, you know. Remember Freddy Fish?
C
No.
A
No. Well, y' all missing out. Anyways, it's now on the iPhone and every day I'm like, should I spend the $5 to play this nostalgic game? Freddy Fish.
B
Okay, I. That looks familiar.
A
Same creators and. But I just. I. I sometimes I get. I love my nostalgia, but I get so worried about playing something and it's disappointing to how I remember it. And I love more. More how it lives in my head of my memories than actually playing the damn game.
B
Yeah.
C
You know what I want? I want jump start.
A
30S okay. Yeah. Bring it back.
C
I want something my age, right? Like, but I want to play it in a jump start form.
A
You know what? You could be onto something. I bet if you did some deep AI, you could upload all the emulators and say, now turn this out. For things I need to know my age.
C
It's like real world things. Or for, you know, you deal with in your 30s.
B
Or jump start. Like naughty version. Jump start. Start at in the dark.
C
Oh, good.
A
Where is the clitoris? How do we.
B
How do we find. Look for the hooker? Which house?
A
At the hooker. Walk out.
C
Like, what would be like a good price? Like a Bardant bargain or what's too much to pay for one?
A
Right? Right.
B
Can you buy the alcohol for the party? Yeah.
A
Be sure to fit test. Let's do the fent test.
C
Yeah.
A
O.
B
What do you want to do with me?
A
Hump start.
B
Take you out.
A
Hump start. Oh, man.
B
Now I can get behind this type of education.
C
I just picture Zane Zayn sitting there at his computer.
A
Is Grand Theft Auto come. It's coming out this year, right?
C
I gave up, bro. It's been.
B
Bro, it's. People have been waiting three years for it since they. Since they announced it. I feel like it's been three years.
A
November.
C
Shut up.
A
My birthday.
B
Well, the day after my birthday, but still. Wow. Dude, I want to have a Grand Theft Auto theme party. That'd be sick.
A
You know, I never got to really play the game as a kid. Is this gonna be the first time I'm going to play it? But then I don't know if I'm really gonna.
B
We would just play. We would just play, like, who can be. Who can have five star police on them longest.
A
Oh, that's okay.
B
We would never play, like, the actual campaign. We would just go around and just like turn rockets into helicopters and just you know, murder people and stuff.
A
Right?
B
You know, that sort of like shit. You know, just like kind of like vibe out. Did you see the video of the guy? Guy, he got arrested.
A
Well, he, like murdered somebody.
B
But he was like crying when the cops arrested him and they were like, what are you crying about? He's like, I'm gonna miss GTA 6. Oh, that's funny. That's a great little promo.
C
And he was. Because he was going to jail.
A
Yeah, baby, you are living gta.
C
What are you talking about? You're doing it in real life.
B
Is there jail in gta?
A
They should. You should get arrested and have to go serve time.
B
Yeah, but like, imagine being in the prison and you're running the prison. That could be fun.
C
Oh, yeah.
A
You know, bet it's in there. I bet jail is in GTA 6.
B
And I love that. It's Miami, right, Heath? It's Florida.
A
I think it's all of. I think it's all of them.
B
No, it's Florida.
A
Like the map is going to be Vice City and I thought it was.
C
I think it's all. All Florida.
A
Ok, Heath.
B
And you know, they're going to. They're going to. It's going to be exact. To like the actual. It's going to look so insane. I can't wait. Dude, we should go out. Out in gta. Like, we should hit our spots, dude.
C
Doing like a multiplayer. Like us going to Flanagans.
A
Yes.
B
Oh, my God. Us going. Us going to Liv, you know, party up. You have to pick me up. You're dd.
C
Ok. We should.
B
Dude, is that. Is all the streets going to be the same? Like, could we drive to my house?
A
I doubt.
C
No, no, it's. It'll have like the iconic spots, but everything is just soup, like scrunch.
B
I think we should still try to find our house.
C
What's cool, though, if you do, like flight simulator, you can fly over your exact house.
A
Yes, you can.
C
I've done that. I've done that on my, my sim. It's crazy.
B
Crashing into your house.
C
Well, yeah, you could crash into your house.
B
You're crazy. You did it, didn't you? You fucking weirdo.
A
I do know that there's like a big server of Minecraft where they're trying to recreate the world and right now they say it's like it's 70% completion, but also like, isn't the earth like 70 water? So know. I don't. I don't know how that's true, but, like people are going in and trying to make it as real as you can. And I've been dying to go into, like.
B
Like, isn't Minecraft like, very, very pixelated? How are you gonna.
A
But, dude, I mean, have you seen the creativity of what these people can do on Minecraft? I mean, yeah, it's pixelated when you go up close, but the structures themselves, like, are pretty interesting to look at.
B
Wait, I think I'm a little confused. I thought Minecraft is the box.
A
Yes. Like, that's how realistic it looks. But right now, there. There's this huge project where you can, like, participate and, you know, add to make it real world realistic. I mean, there's someone out there who plays Minecraft and it probably lives.
B
Like, are they making Epstein's island?
A
You know what? I bet it is.
C
I have a. I have a crazy update for you on that.
A
What?
B
Are you in the files?
C
Dude, you guys are.
B
Yo, he. I love how Heath was taking his time. Like, he had free time. So he's like, oh, let me look up Zane's name on the files. Like, did you.
C
Did you get giddy?
B
Did you, like, were you like, oh, what is.
C
What if.
B
My friends.
C
I was just doing a deep dive on the files and I was just searching a bunch of. And then I was like, oh, we were about to record. Let me. It'd be funny if I could, like, find their name.
B
And it's because you thought I was in there. You truly thought that because, you know, because Epstein lived in Florida. No, I.
C
You're trying to.
B
You're trying to connect me to.
C
You worked a lot in Palm beach, so.
B
I did, I did.
A
But.
C
So you know how I've always thought Epstein was still alive? Yeah, they just found in the emails, his. An email with a subscription to playing, like Fortnite online.
B
I thought. I thought they debunk. They debunked that.
C
The. The email that says Little.
B
Little. Little Jeffrey or something?
C
Yeah, I thought one or something like.
B
That because they were trying to. They were trying to match the account because the account was active for a long time. So they were trying to match if he was alive and where he was when the account was being used or something.
A
Wait, you're saying you think Jeffrey Epstein was alive playing Fortnite under the screen name Little Joe? Jeff won.
C
Still. Still playing Fortnite.
A
Apparently little. Littlest Jeff or Littlest Jeff won.
C
That's it.
B
You see, like, to me, I feel like if people. If you saw people were like, catching on to this, I feel like he wouldn't play under that account anymore. I just.
A
It Just seems multiple properties. He probably had video games on those properties. And I'm not saying every kid who was on any of his properties were, you know, victims of what was going on, but like. Like, it's like you check out someone's Airbnb and someone's still logged in on Netflix.
B
Yeah.
A
You know, maybe someone walked away with the Nintendo Switch and gave it to their kid. And it's Jeffrey Epstein's account.
B
I don't think Jeffrey Epstein is playing Fortnite.
A
What is this article saying, basically? Is it debunking it or.
B
Well, it's going off of what Fortnite.
A
Like Epic Games said that a player.
B
Had changed their name to that as a way to troll other people.
A
People.
B
And that the account is not actually.
A
Linked to any of his known. Yeah.
B
Especially since everybody like, dude, any. All the gamers are all fucking trolls. Like, dude, I'm not surprised this kid saw an opportunity or whoever was it was. I'm like, oh, I'm gonna. I'm gonna have fun with this. But the Fortnite thing is real.
A
Like, that is a real document in the Epstein files.
B
There's also another document that he was permanently banned from Xbox Live as well.
A
So he was a game. Oh, he was.
B
Yeah. Okay. All right. So I take everything I just said back. Did you see? I forget what her name is, but she made a tick tock going, I. Not to like, hide myself up, but, like, I truly think I can get Ghislaine Maxwell to talk.
A
Like, get me one on one.
B
Get me one on one. I really think I can get her to talk. And the top comment was like, this is not the time to joke. And she's like, no, I'm being deadass serious.
A
I think. I truly think that send her to jail undercover. Make them like, cellmates dates. You can get some stuff out.
B
Like, I feel like they've had to have done that already, though. Like, there's they. You don't think they've tried that where.
A
Like doing like a Blackbird situation is that show on Apple tv. Like, you go into purposefully to meet another inmate to get information from them.
B
Doesn't Ghis. Like, Ghislaine doesn't have any friends in jail.
C
Oh, she's in. She's in solitary confinement.
A
Oh, what are you doing? Make.
B
Bring some friends with it. Give that some friends. So she starts talking. Everybody talk talks. Everybody talks. You think Elaine Maxwell, if she had.
C
Like, a thing is you run the risk of. You run the risk of them dying.
A
She is. She is in a minimum Security prison right now, though.
B
Minimum security.
A
Yeah. Meaning it's not like violent offenders, like white collar crimes and stuff.
B
Got it.
A
But she has said that she is.
B
Willing to talk in exchange for clemency, which is like basically getting out, like.
A
Supposed to answer questions like, a couple days ago.
C
Yeah. She, like, refused.
A
Oh. And just pleaded the fifth.
C
Basically. Basically just like, if Trump pardons her, she'll talk.
B
And it's like, I know we all.
C
Dude, if Trump pardons her, I'm like, bro, it's crazy. All the shit that's coming out and nothing is happening.
B
Yeah.
C
Nobody's getting questioned.
B
Nobody's like, I know we all have rights as humans on this earth, but I think in that moment, just. Just tell the bitch that she's going to get Clemens and then lie to her.
C
She can lie. Let's just lie right back.
B
Just exactly. Just lie right back. Like, I think some moments, I think in some situations, very, very rare situations, I think you're allowed to just lie. Yeah. Your honor, it. I had my fingers crossed. It says this, and I'm telling guys, I'm telling you, I'm telling you, not one person that's not a Would, would, would, would not be okay with that, period. I think everybody would be like, you know what? The government did lie to her. That's fucked up. But you know what? It had to be done. It had to be done.
A
I thought it was wild how someone spotted, like, obviously Donald Trump's name has been, like, redacted from, like, a lot of the files, and they realized that the word don't. Oh, yes, Redacted. Because it's Dante. And so they.
C
Oh, you could tell that they typed in anything that has this. Just block it out.
A
Yeah. They would notice all these times, like, this person clearly said, don't, don't. And it's redacted.
B
So it's just.
A
So it has to be about, like, Don. Like, all the other stuff is just. He's withdrew his name from it, which is just crazy. I love when people, just true citizens are able to catch it. Like, yeah, that just seems right through it all.
B
And people are up and down those files. It's crazy how much is out there. I. Dude, my entire feed is different. People finding new things.
C
It. Dude, it's every day coming every day.
B
And it's like, that's all my feed right now. Because, like, every time, time one pops up, I'm watching it because I'm like, oh. Because I'm not gonna look through 3 million files on this. Like, there's People out there that, like, this is their fucking shit. This. They are good at this. They're gonna look at it, and I'm gonna watch every single one. Yeah. It's crazy. There is a glimmer of hope in.
A
The sense that the FBI is now.
B
Like, actually being pressured to unredact the files. Oh, absolutely. Because they. You.
C
You pressure them to arrest these people.
B
Yeah, that.
A
I said glimmer.
B
Just a glimmer.
C
Yeah. Right.
B
Because. Because when we do something wrong, you don't redact our name. You don't redact our files.
C
And we got Cash Patel saying that, you know, nothing's in it. Busted. Now that it came out, we got. We got Mr. We got Mr. Daunt saying that it's a hoax.
B
Yeah.
C
And then, dude, it's so. It's so. It makes me, like, physically angry. I don't.
B
Heath, you've been angry since the jump. And that's on. Period poopy.
C
Period poopy.
B
Oh, speaking of. Speaking of the files, did you guys see on the side of this building they were putting in, how many. How many times each person was mentioned in the files? Like a leaderboard?
A
Elon Musk. 1400 mention.
C
You saw Elon Musk begging to go.
B
Yeah.
A
Damn.
B
Crazy.
A
Look at that.
B
Like, yo, it's behind you. Look behind you. That's crazy.
C
That's really funny.
B
Oh, my God. I'm surprised they were allowed to put that up there. I. I think allowed is a strong word. Oh, you think they did it? Got the video and then took it down?
A
Yeah, it was probably some gorilla vigilante who's just like it.
C
But that. That would be me sitting there with a projector.
B
Zooms into you. You, Heath, you're just holding.
C
That's. That's clever.
B
Okay, all right. Enough and enough file talk, all right?
C
Yeah, yeah. No more. No more file talk.
B
No more file talk. I'm. It's making my stomach ill jump into the unwind. But, you know, I can't wait for next week because, you know, more stuff is going to come out.
C
Keep it coming, baby.
B
You know. You know when you. You know when there's like a drunk driver and you do like a citizen's arrest. Do you see where I'm going?
A
I think.
B
I think we should just make a. Be careful. A group of citizens arrest.

The episode’s tone remains loose, irreverent, and fast-paced, with the trio jumping from topic to topic, often blending sharp humor with authentic surprise or outrage. Tangents are plentiful (from pretzel toppings to spark plug glass breaking, to wild Olympic hacks), but are always brought back with group laughter and insider friendship.
Even if you haven’t tuned in, you’ll get a sense that this episode is a prime example of Zane and Heath: Unfiltered at its best: candid storytelling, wide-open pop culture survey, nostalgic throwbacks, and on-trend debates about food, music, technology, and the bizarre corners of internet culture. Zane’s “terrible addiction”—his inability to quit Candy Crush—fittingly bookends an episode obsessed with all manner of guilty pleasures, from Super Bowl snacks to retro games and viral scandals.
