What's up, y'? All? Summer's got a different tempo. Everything's a little looser, brighter. One plan turns into another. You hear something, you stay a little longer. Next thing you know, you're somewhere you didn't plan to be. It's those in between moments. That's where the ideas hit. Conversations, stretching out. Little memories sneak up on you. Sometimes it's just about what's in your hand. That color, that chill. The new Tropical Butterfly Refresher from Starbucks. Guava and passion fruit flavors with mango pineapple flavored pearls.

[A]

It's.

[B]

It's so, like, I keep seeing more people coming up with, like, different scenarios, like. Or they keep coming up with more details on, like, what the people on the boat were actually doing. Like, these people paid, like, thousands of dollars, like, $20,000 to, like, be on this, like, small cruise ship y. And they're pretty much doing, like, a. Like a kind of like a adventurous type. So they would, like, they would make stops and excursions. Excursions. They'd go into, like, the pits of different countries and shit, which is like, you know, that's like you're asking. You're pretty much asking for a virus to come fucking attached to you, dude.

[D]

But they went to Antarctica.

[B]

They also Went to like some landfill in Argentina, which is like, why are we taking our guests that are paying so much money to a landfill? Or why are we even walking by a landfill? You're smell.

[C]

Why is that an attraction?

[B]

Yeah, well, I mean, I'm guessing where. That's where all the rat poop was. Like, what else is going to be at a giant landfall And Argentina, it's

[C]

like a, it's like a high, high, low, low cruise. Like, it shows you the most beautiful, like tip top everything in the world. And then it's like, but also we have this and it's just landfills. Garbage. You're like, my mom is sitting there

[B]

watching, like, watching like different like, outlets. And she's like, what the. Why the. Why the hell are people going on bat caves and shit and bringing that shit back here? You know what, Mom? That is crazy. It's like if someone came to, you were like, oh, we're going to go bat cave exploring in other countries. That sounds fun. No, no, like, it just sounds like when you don't think about like catching something, it sounds fun. Oh, cool. And then when you hear it from the outside, you're like, that's not cool or fun.

[C]

Imagine, imagine doing the batcave exploration. And they're like, make sure if anybody got bit, please raise hand. And you're just like, like, you're like, I don't want to raise my hand.

[B]

It's like, you don't want to be the person to start the next one.

[A]

I'm so divided on bats in general. Like, they're kind of like cute, but they're gross. That's like a rat that can fly.

[B]

Like, no.

[C]

What's really weird, if you look at their face, it looks like a dog.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

And then it gets even creepier the more you look at it. But then when you step away, you're like, kind of cute. And then when you like step away further of it, just as a species, you're like, what the is this? Like, I've seen videos of like, maybe it's like somewhere like in Italy or they have, you know, those like terracotta like roofs and stuff. And it's just a bunch of bats and they're just like picking them up and throwing them out.

[B]

The guy that's like, what the hell

[C]

are you doing here?

[B]

Get the out. Like, he's pushing all the bats off his roof.

[A]

But they're kind of cute.

[B]

They're, they're adorable.

[A]

I would like to touch one, just one, like on your chest.

[B]

And they're like, there's zero. And.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And that's where. That's where it starts.

[A]

That's where it all started.

[B]

And it's just so. The way they just sleep upside down like that. Just haunting.

[A]

Why does Batman like bats? Because he was in a cave and there was a bunch of bats, and he like.

[D]

He doesn't like them. It's all about facing his fears. Because he fell into the bat cave and then was swarmed by them. And then he embodied his fear to strike fear in the village.

[B]

Wait, that's. That's the Batman story.

[C]

I thought he got bit by a bat.

[A]

It's not like Spider Man.

[B]

Spider Man.

[A]

It's a metaphor of conquering fear.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Batman doesn't have, like, supernatural power. He's just.

[D]

He's just rich.

[A]

He just. He's rich. Ripped.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

And strong and smart.

[D]

You know, he's the world's greatest detective.

[B]

It's crazy that we all know how Spider man became Spider man, but I did not know that about Batman. I literally thought he like bats.

[A]

Batman begins. I think that's where the bat scene is. Right? And Batman. Yeah. Begins.

[C]

But what about. What about Superman?

[A]

Superman is from Krypton.

[D]

Yeah, Krypton.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

But his real name is like k. Yeah, that.

[D]

That's his. His Kryptonian name. But then he land Kansas.

[A]

His parents planet was like doomed. And they were like, we got to send this baby. We got to get him out of here. And then let's just put him in Small bell.

[C]

Did you.

[B]

Did you find. Did you find that out in. What is Pleasantville?

[A]

Smallville.

[C]

Smallville.

[A]

Pleasantville. That's a. Pleasantville's a good movie though.

[D]

Has Spider man in it. Toby Maguire.

[A]

There you go.

[B]

Wow, look at. Look at my. My brain's firing up. Just give me some time. I just woke up.

[A]

Okay, so who wins? Spider Man? Superman or Batman?

[B]

Superman.

[D]

Well, I mean, yeah, but if you watch Batman vs Superman with Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck, Batman kind of wins in that how.

[B]

Which I've never seen. He barely run fast.

[D]

Because Superman's one weakness is kryptonite, which is like a radioactive rock from his planet, which I've never understood how we're able to find so much of it with like, Lex Luthor and stuff for this alien rock and. But he like, creates a gas.

[B]

But dude, all he needs to do is pick up Batman, go up to space, and let him go. Yeah, but Batman has to go and find this shit with the drive. Drive. Yeah. He's not flying there. Not flying to find Kryptonite.

[D]

But Superman has like, you know, super morals and so he. He doesn't kill.

[A]

Right. You're right. He saves.

[D]

Yeah. That's his. That's his like one weakness is that he.

[A]

Despite this Spider Man. Does Spider man really kill? I think he's just always like, gotcha

[B]

for a little bit. He puts him in a spider web trap.

[C]

He puts his time out for a minute.

[B]

He's definitely in cahoots with like the police, though. Like, he really works together with the police where he. But the police, like don't like him at the same time. They're just like, you're destroying our city.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

But thank you for catching these guys and putting him in cobwebs.

[A]

Spider man never seems like he's like financially doing that. Well, like, Peter Parker ain't rich.

[B]

Yeah, no, no. Yeah.

[A]

But so he's just having to go back to like his one bed apartment, sharing with his mom and stuff.

[B]

And like, it's humbling though, because he goes out and he'.

[A]

Famous.

[B]

Yeah. His mom's dead.

[D]

He lives with his aunt and uncle.

[B]

Oh, yeah, that's his. Yeah.

[A]

Uncle Ben dies, though.

[B]

But he.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Yes. But that's who he lived with. But his. He's never had his parents or never.

[A]

Oh, you're right. I know nothing. I know nothing.

[D]

There is a big meme going on right now about Spider man killing people because Spider Man's way stronger than you realize. And so like in the video games and like the movies and stuff, when he punches people, they're like, that guy's absolutely dead.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

It used to piss me off in the video games because I wanted to kill, but you could only punch. And I would just keep hitting. I mean, come on.

[B]

I don't know if I ever talk. I was just thinking about this other day and I don't know if I've ever brought it up again because I was so embarrassed that I did this. You guys remember the time this was actually the episode where we dressed up like Anchorman. It was like the first episode of season three. Three or four or whatever. Do you guys remember the story that I brought up where I went to a nightclub and I saw like two Spider man, like the two of the actors there. It was Tom Holland and Tobey Maguire. And I like thought that was the coolest thing. I was like, holy shit. Like both guys from different Spider Mans are. Are in the same, like at the same table at this nightclub. I was like, holy shit. Also, I'm not like a huge marvel, like fudgeing fanatic. I've just know. I've seen both Spider man movies, but that's it. I didn't know what was coming up. Nothing. I saw this happen at a nightclub.

[A]

Public.

[B]

Nightclub, mind you. Like, everybody there was witnesses to the people in attendance. So I. When I came back that. That week we're recording, I. I mentioned that I saw them both, and that was so cool. And that was it. But then it, like that clip.

[C]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[B]

And everybody in, like, the Marvel, like, universe, they. They were freaking out. Like, oh, my God. Confirm. Confirm. Like, confirm what? Yeah, both side of mans are in the same room. Okay. What do you mean? And it was because that new movie with the. The no Way Home or wait.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

You had, like, Toby Maguire. Yeah.

[B]

And nobody knew if this was gonna happen. But when I. But when I said that I saw two of them together, it was like a pretty good confirmation because they're probably hanging out a lot because they were.

[C]

But what was crazy was people were getting mad at you. I remember everybody, like, yelling at you in the comments.

[A]

But you know what?

[B]

Like, look, I. I get why they're mad at me. Because they love their surprises. Especially the people, like, in that world that love the movies. I get it. If I'm at, like, a private part, like, if I'm at a, like a private house party and I see something, I keep that to myself because that's private. That is like, you're in, like, a private setting. You're in a private home.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

If you're seeing.

[A]

You're in public, you got bragging rights to say, I spotted that person in public. Yes.

[B]

If I'm seeing, like, two celebrities talking and I hear something crazy, I wouldn't, like, I would never say that because, like, it's like a private.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

So to me, it was just like, that was okay.

[A]

And.

[B]

And I remember, I remember. I think it was like somebody from the team or something reached out to David and was like, hey, like, that was. That was really not cool.

[A]

Can you make Zane shut his trap? Yeah.

[B]

Hey, that was like, not cool. But then I was just like, hey, David. At the same time, like, who came up with the idea of both of them being at the same table at a nightclub?

[A]

Like, I think that's paparazzi outside the fucking nightclub one.

[B]

No, no, they can, they can like,

[A]

oh, they go through the back door?

[B]

Yes, they go through the back door. So I was like, you know, I was constantly back and forth. I'm like, wait, was this. Was I in the wrong. Was like, like, should. Should I have seen that. Me being like, Like a podcaster, like, and knowing that I don't know. I like. But again, I didn't know the Marvel Universe or universe. And if I did know that, if David immediately goes, hey, Zane, so this is a big deal because Marvel's got to come out with a movie where they don't know if they're together. But this guy, if he were to tell me that, I would have been like, I shouldn'.

[C]

Anything I was gonna say, that would be like seeing Aquaman and Spider man at a bar together, you'd be like, that's cool.

[B]

I'm gonna talk about it. Like, I'm gonna tell all my friends.

[C]

Like, I would never think they're doing a Spider Man, Aquaman crossover.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

But I, that, that was. I think that was a moment where, like, I lost some sleep for sure. For a few weeks.

[A]

How can we clarify this, timing wise? When did this go down in advance to the movie coming out? Was this a year out, a month out?

[C]

No, it was like. I feel like it was, like, shortly after.

[D]

Were you in the Anchorman costumes when you told that story?

[B]

Yes, we were. We were. Literally.

[A]

It was that night when. It was the night we wore the costumes.

[B]

No, it was that because it was. It was the day we put the podcast out.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

The episode.

[A]

Oh. And that's when we were at Whitney Cummings Halloween party.

[B]

That's crazy. How do you know?

[A]

Because I was talking to Theo Vaughn, and he just.

[C]

And we were in costume.

[A]

Yeah, he was talking Patricia. I think Theo Vod just had a big crush on Patricia. He was just like. But he was making me laugh so hard. I had a fake mustache, and it kept falling off, like, talking to Theo.

[B]

That's why. Oh, my God. We were wearing that. Okay, so it, it wasn't when this got released where it really went everywhere is when someone clipped it.

[A]

Okay, okay.

[B]

Someone clipped it and it went on, like, the, like the Marvel superhero universe.

[A]

All the fans found it. Well, Zane, it's not your fault.

[B]

Thank you. Yeah, I know it's not your fault. It's just, like, as soon as we're talking about Spider Man, I was like, oh, talking. I, I, I want to bring it up because I want you to tell you guys, like, the back end of what was. What was happening in my life, we

[C]

really killed that, though.

[B]

We really were a media outlet.

[A]

I never wore this suit ever again.

[B]

Yeah, I don't even know where that is. And that was a good suit too.

[A]

We should run that intro.

[B]

Yeah, let's. Thank you, Matt.

[D]

Before we do that. That episode came out a month before no Way Home.

[A]

Okay, so a month in advance ain't that big of a deal.

[B]

Before the movie came out or before

[D]

the like release of before the movie came out. They, they tried to keep it a secret until the movie.

[B]

They did try to keep it a secret though. Like I, you can't find it, you couldn't find it anywhere that the three, the two of them were in that movie.

[A]

If you looked hard enough, maybe.

[B]

No, no, I, I, I was the, I, I think I was the closest to evidence for sure.

[A]

Going out together in a nightclub.

[B]

I, I hated that. I, Dude, I wanted anything to delete that episode and just wipe it from the inner. I felt so bad. Can you imagine if I. No, I felt terrible about that. I did not like that and I did not like. You know what I did like though? When I released the Starbucks coffee cup again.

[A]

What?

[B]

Oh yeah, the Starbucks coffee cup. That was in one of the episodes.

[A]

Oh yes. You were on that?

[B]

Yeah, dude, I was like, you like, you know, I was the one by the TV ready to press play when the episode came out and I was the first one to post the Starbucks coffee cup because I thought it was crazy.

[A]

You got it, baby.

[B]

And I got it. That was it.

[C]

That is crazy.

[B]

I have a feeling that was a PR sign.

[D]

I don't think so.

[A]

No.

[D]

I think that was just poor production.

[B]

That's crazy though. Like to go from like the person there to them to, to editing. Like you think after all those fucking rounds they still miss it?

[A]

Maybe.

[B]

Look at that cup. It's not like a, it's an eyesore that has a white top on it.

[A]

I wonder now with like AI tools, would they like be able to scan all their footage and be like, is there anything we miss?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And they'll be like, ye, you have a coffee. A cup here you need to go and post. Cuz that's something easy you can edit out with just like another mug or a stein.

[B]

You've got a dragon.

[A]

But I wonder if just nowadays they would be able to catch that. Yeah, but I don't know. Just thinking out loud.

[B]

Yeah. Now we can run the intro.

[C]

All right, let's get it baby. 3, 2, 1.

[B]

It's coffee time, baby. Welcome back to Zany Heath. Unfiltered I'm Zayn.

[C]

I'm Heath.

[A]

I'm Matt.

[D]

I'm Jared.

[B]

And we are maybe in a pandemic.

[A]

Relax.

[B]

Maybe. Hey dude. Maybe maybe not. I don't know.

[A]

Maybe, maybe not. But we once again we're very early in this episode. We don't know everything. So we'll see.

[B]

Yeah, guys, right? It's like March. It's March 5th right now. So just give us, give us some leeway.

[C]

Today's the 8th of May.

[B]

I know. I'm surprised that look to catch that.

[D]

I was just letting it ride.

[B]

Ah, me too.

[A]

If Dr. Pepper was a doctor, what kind of doctor do you think it'd be?

[C]

I think it'd be holistic. I think it'd be like an herbal ent. Ent.

[A]

Oh, I like that too. Yeah, I saw a girl make it

[B]

who made a Tick Tock.

[A]

She's like, what do y' all think? Think? I think she's a female obgyn.

[B]

No, no, no, no, no.

[A]

I think it works for everyone else.

[B]

No, it's an anti doctor. Why? Because pepper makes you sneeze.

[C]

Oh, Zane, I like where your head's at.

[A]

I like a psychiatrist, Dr. Pepper. Do you think Dr. Pepper is a male or a female?

[B]

It sounds like a female. Or maybe I'm because. Because I'm putting that girl from Tick Tock now attached to Dr. Pepper.

[A]

Yeah, I kind of see her in my head.

[B]

I just see her.

[A]

Dr. Pepper, she's a psychiatrist. And the only thing that can fix me is prescribing me a Dr. Pepper.

[B]

Dr. Pepper zero.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Dr. Pepper diet.

[A]

I don't know. Just a little

[B]

is Dr. Pepper Coke but cherry in it? Like, what's the flavor of that?

[A]

We've talked about this before.

[C]

No, but I think yummy.

[B]

You know, I forget.

[C]

It sounds so good and it makes so much sense. Somebody on Tick tock was like, Dr. Pepper is the same as like Barbecue Sprite. Like, it's like, wow, feels the same as Barbecue Sprite. And I was like, why does that work so much barbecue?

[A]

It does have like a barbecue sauce esque to it, but I hate thinking about it. But it has a 23 flavors, a mixture of fruit, spices, cola, vanilla, and often describes as spice cola. But you're right, Zane. There's cherry, BlackBerry, apricot, plum, lemon, orange, vanilla.

[B]

Yeah, tastes like it.

[C]

Before we continue, this episode is sponsored by Better Help. If you didn't know, May is mental health awareness month. And I think it's a good reminder that whatever you're carrying right now, you don't have to carry it by yourself. Life can feel heavy sometimes. For me, it's usually the late night spiral. Thinking about work, family, the future, all the stuff you feel like you should have figured out by now. And the truth is, nobody has all the answers alone. Sometimes it helps to just talk to somebody who will listen and help you sort through some things. And BetterHelp connects you with a fully licensed therapist. And they do the matching part for you based on a short questionnaire so you can focus on what you want help with. And get this, if the fit isn't right, you can switch therapists at any time. And with over 30,000 therapists, more than 6 million people served, and a 4.9 out of 5 average session rating from over 1.7 million reviews, better Help has helped a lot of people feel a little less alone.

[B]

Do you guys remember that doordash girl that she came in and took a picture of a guy sleeping naked on the couch.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

And was like, oh, my God, I was assaulted while he was sleeping. I just saw this pop up on my feet. I was like, oh, my God. I thought like, I thought it, like, simmered out. I thought like, it was just. It just went away. It. She's getting indicted and could possibly be going to jail for five years.

[D]

For five years.

[B]

That's what I. That's what it said in the thing.

[A]

Makes sense. Damn. Wow. Five year. I bet, I bet she'll get early release. But, like, that's kind of like, that's worth at least a year in prison.

[B]

Oh, really?

[A]

Oh, because that's like, essentially crossed. You crossed the line. Yeah, you crossed the line. Extremely. And five years, 30 years probation. Because I.

[B]

Because I don't think she genuinely was taking a picture because she felt also, I think she was taking a picture to get it. To get a cackle. And then it got out of control.

[A]

Did she post it to the doordash app? Like, yeah, dropped off your order. Did she also have a personal connection? Like, what if it was like a student at, like, a university? And then like, maybe she knew the apartment complex and just went in and was just like, I know this unit. Like, I'm just gonna drop it off here. Like, I'm thinking, what do you mean? Did she convince herself, like, oh, this isn't that bad of what I'm doing. Or was it truly like, she.

[B]

She walked in to bring. I think the door was like, open a little bit.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And Then she walked in, put the bag down, and saw that he was.

[A]

Was like, naked on the couch.

[B]

On the couch, but he was sleeping.

[A]

Now she's crazy.

[B]

I mean, just even all the videos after, I was like, oh, this is a nutcase.

[A]

But yeah, eight years in prison. I mean, yeah, sure would. I think she served the full aim. I don't think so.

[B]

You don't think that's a long time?

[A]

That's an extremely long time. Right?

[C]

Okay.

[B]

Yeah. That's fucking insane.

[C]

I don't know. I think whatever you falsely accuse someone of, you should serve that penalty.

[D]

Oh, interesting.

[B]

I like that.

[C]

Like, if you claim somebody did something to you and you're found out to be a liar, I think you should serve what you were trying to get them in prison for.

[A]

Reverse. Reverse.

[B]

It only makes sense because it will. Like, if. If lying about something like that only gets you in jail for five months, but that what you're lying. Saying that they did puts them in jail for 10 years, then I would do it all the time because the risk is just.

[A]

Speaking of prison, have you ever been if your brother knows about these chips? It's this brand of chips. I think they sell them Amazon, but they're called the Whole Shebang Chips. And all the reviews. They're called the Whole Shebang Chips. That's the name. And all the reviews are people who used to be in prison and are like, these are the chips we ate in prison. There's a certain way of, like making chips in prison where they use all the spices they got. They have a certain way of cutting the potatoes, frying them up and making them. And when people get out of prison, they crave the chips that they were making on the side in prison. So somebody made a whole brand of the chips as close to the taste as the prison chips. So all the reviews are like, I was locked up for eight years and I've been craving these for the longest time. These whole should be crazy. Like, how many of the reviews, how

[B]

many people are coming out of prison and wanting these chips, though? My husband is so happy with his purchase.

[A]

Like, yes, yes, these are the same ones when you were locked up in jail or prison. They're great, very bright, sharp vinegar, forward flavor. And they're not sold in stores. But some of these people in the comments are.

[B]

And unlike most, the bag is in 60% air.

[C]

Oh, wait, the only place to get this brand of chips is in prison?

[B]

No, it's a way they make it in prison. So somebody took that, like, how they were making it and Made it like their own, like, outside, because no other

[A]

chip brand is making prison chips. So these chips, and I kind of want to try them.

[B]

I'm surprised that they don't. I'm surprised they make the chips in there. They don't just buy chips from, like, an outside, like, source.

[A]

Yeah. They have to go to the commissary, and they probably have to spend their own money on, like, expensive chips when they're like, let's just make a big batch of what we hub in the kitchen with just true potatoes and, like, frying up the chips.

[B]

No, no, I know. I just, like. I'm just surprised they didn't, like. They don't, like, give, like, a bunch of fucking cheap chips there instead.

[C]

This just wrecked me. I just found out a couple days ago since it just reminded me. Did you know that Pringles aren't even chips?

[A]

Come again?

[B]

They don't taste like chips.

[C]

It's not even made with potatoes. They're not chips.

[B]

What is that?

[A]

What are you talking about? There ain't no potatoes and Pringles.

[C]

No, they can't label it as chips. Matt.

[B]

I mean, Matt, think about it. Like, when you eat a Pringle, like, it genuinely does not taste like it's like a potato.

[C]

Like a. Like a dust type mixture crumble thing that they form into those shapes.

[B]

Have you ever, like. Have you ever, like, took a Pringle and then, like, kind of like. Like, let it melt in your mouth?

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, It's. It does because it says it's. It's combined with corn, rice, and wheat starches with potato flakes. But I'll take that with a grain of salt.

[B]

But with a grain of potato.

[A]

With a grain of potato. Okay, that kind of checks out, but kind of is rocking my world.

[B]

Wait, I. Why are the Pringles that big in the factory angle? Small.

[C]

That's like one of those Mr. Mr. Beast.

[A]

AI. That's crazy. What's your favorite? Welcome to the podcast. What's favorite Pringle?

[B]

Did you. Did you see the guy, the dude that works at Chick Fil A, that. He. He. He did a scan or. Sorry. Let me.

[C]

You got it.

[A]

You got it. A guy was working at Chick Fil A.

[B]

The way you said that was like, oh, I've heard that before. The way you said it, just being like, oh, SpongeBob. SpongeBob. What's that? What he remember? He's writing in the essay. What is that?

[C]

What. What I learned in boating school is.

[B]

That's exactly how you said it's A former Chick fil a worker was accused of stealing $80,000 in Matt in a Mac and cheese scam. So he was pretty much ringing people up that they're buying Mac and cheese and it back to his card. Genius. And he was able to do this to $80,000 until they were like, wait a second. We're having a lot of Mac and cheese being sold.

[C]

They're just, like, the leader in Mac and cheese.

[B]

What's going on? And they checked the cameras, and they caught him. Just every Mac and cheese that was ordered, he would just refund that Mac and cheese back into his card. Which. Why Mac and cheese, though? You know what I mean? Like, why stick to one pleasure plastic with one, like, probably like, a small

[C]

side item that, you know, he thought might get overlooked because of doing a.

[B]

Doing, like, a bunch of burgers that's gonna. It's gonna ring a. Ring a bell, right?

[A]

Or if it was like, fruit cups or something, they might think there's something

[B]

wrong with their Mac and cheese. They gotta look at the.

[A]

Gotta look at the 80,000, buddy. You really pushed it. Like, he was. I'm surprised. He was like, I'm getting away with it.

[B]

I'm surprised. I'm surprised. He tried that in Chick Fil A, though, though. You have to. You have to try that in, like, McDonald's. They won't see that because they make so much money. I know Chick Fil a does too, but, like, Chick Fil A, they don't want to let their staff do tick tocks, you know what I mean? So you gotta. You gotta save that for, like, other fast food joints, right?

[A]

I used to know guys who worked at Sonic, and if somebody came up and said that they wanted a gift card, they'd be like, oh, yeah, sure. And they would ring up the gift card, but give them a fake gift card.

[D]

No way.

[A]

And then they would keep the gift card. And then when the person would go up, they'd be like, wait, my gift card doesn't work. I paid for it. Blah, blah, blah. And they would have proof that. That they bought it. But.

[B]

And they're like, okay.

[A]

And he was just. My friend was just, like, scamming people on the side.

[B]

And this is a friend of yours?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

How long ago was this?

[A]

High school.

[B]

This is happening right now?

[A]

No. High school. But I always was like, shame on you. Damn Sandra Bullock in the Blind side. Shame on you. Shame on you.

[B]

No, you like that. You're like, can you. Can you get me some gift cards too? How many gift cards would. Is he doing this?

[A]

I. I don't know. Like, but he was probably like, it depended on the gift card how much it was. Some people would be like, oh, I want a 21. I want a 51. He'd be like, sure, here's a fake card.

[B]

I feel like he was definitely judging per person. Like the person would come and he's just like, yeah, I feel like they wouldn't.

[C]

So then he would just use it to get free Sonic food.

[A]

That's what I. Yeah, I think that's what his like method was. I mean, he could get free Sonic at his own Sonic, but if he went to other Sonic, he would have to pay like for it.

[D]

How bad do you want Sonic?

[B]

Yeah, right. I feel like he didn't need to do that. But I get. I get why he. I mean, it's still money in a card.

[A]

You know what I'm gonna ask him.

[B]

You should see. Just be like, why would you do that when you know you're getting free food at Sonic?

[A]

He'll be so pissed off that I'm just even breathing it up. Hey, buddy. Remember you used to steal.

[B]

Dude, they're gonna. They can find out. They can just check all the systems and then look at who's.

[A]

I'm not saying his name.

[D]

Yeah, what's the statute of limitations on that?

[B]

Now we know it's a boy. So that brings it down by 50%. Let's try to. Let's try to find out who this person is.

[D]

Also, the chick Fil. A guy depending if it was a small or a medium, like Mac and cheese, he did it to 10 to 18,000 orders of.

[A]

That's crazy.

[B]

That's how many Mac and cheeses it

[D]

would take to get to 80,000.

[B]

And I thought you weren't allowed to refund unless a manager was like there too to put their like PIN or something. Or is that only certain places?

[D]

I mean, I'm able to some sort of manager at Banana Republic because I

[B]

know I can't refund when I'm. When I'm doing self checkout. They never.

[C]

You gotta call somebody over.

[B]

They. They don't trust us, but they trust $80,000 scam.

[A]

Do you ever feel embarrassed returning things? Yeah, there's like something about it. We're like, oh, I love an Amazon return that. I'm just dropping something off at my local Whole Foods or ups. I'm like, all right. But like just going to a store being like, yeah, this top just didn't fit. Can we like. I. I don't.

[B]

I don't mind returning clothes. It's people returning food. Like, that's fudgeing. Gross. People return. Like, like something will come from Ralph's and they'll return. I'll see them returning in. There's like, that's gross.

[D]

Oh, have you seen the, the self checkout scan or scams where they, they'll peel like the sticker off a banana and put it on a TV and scan that?

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

And then they walk out with a $2 TV.

[C]

Yeah, I saw some. Saw somebody did it at Home Depot with like one of those big ass barbecue grills on wheels.

[D]

Oh my God.

[C]

They put like, you know, those little like pencils that you can buy just. They put like a pencil inside of the grill. So when he opened it up to scan it, he scanned the pencil.

[B]

Oh, are, are these like, are these like satire, like videos or the. Like they're actually doing this?

[C]

No, they're actually doing it.

[B]

Oh, wow.

[A]

Have you seen those people who are shoppers and you have to like pay for this subscription service, but it can tell you the inventory in certain stores when you, when maybe a certain product has not sold at all, it gets down to like $0.01. And you're entitled to buy the product for $0.01. It can be items that are hundreds and hundreds of dollars, but you can legally buy it for $0.01.

[B]

If what it's a.

[A]

There's like these price trackers, product monitoring tools and stuff that you can buy and it can tell you when certain inventory in stores hasn't sold and they have to lower the price down to like a cent so the product can move. But not many customers know about it. But people pay for this service. They go in and go like, ye, buying this for a cent. I can legally do it. And they're like, no, something has to be wrong. They won't. Like the people at Lowe's, the people at Home Depot, they're not letting the people walk out with the product. But the people are like, I'm not entitled to this product.

[B]

It's not a glitch. It's like that actually puts it one second.

[A]

It's a legal inventory, like loophole thing that you can take advantage of. It's almost like couponing in a way.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[A]

But the people working at the stores are like, what the. No, you can't just leave with this. But they can.

[B]

I mean, I feel like the, the shit that goes to $0.01. I think the fudgeing workers should get it. The staff should be able to get in on that, right?

[A]

Yeah, it's It's a very niche type thing. Not every store does it. You have to go out to certain places to do it. It's like extreme couponing. If you're going to do it, you have to put in so much work to find out which the. What products they are. But it is this kind of weird way of buying stuff. And I like those videos for the work.

[B]

I like that one coupon. There's a movie of two girls like that were like. Like doing a whole coupon scan. Do. Do you remember that movie?

[C]

Well, there was the. There was a TV show with like extreme couponers.

[B]

No, but this was like a. These two girls were doing a coupon scam.

[D]

I remember that movie.

[B]

Is it this one? Yeah. I enjoyed it. It was fun.

[D]

That was a good movie.

[B]

Yeah, it was. It was cute. 10 rods.

[A]

It's wild with extreme couponing that you can use so many coupons the store ends up owing you money. How does that go down?

[B]

But it's real. Like, that's real too.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

It makes no sense.

[A]

And then the people just like hoard all these products in their house and then try to sell those.

[B]

You know what?

[A]

Donate them at the same.

[B]

At the same time. They are working really hard.

[A]

I know.

[B]

Think about it. The amount of time they're putting into it. They got to get paid for that.

[A]

They're a little on the spectrum.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

It's most extreme couponers. There's something about them where you're like, okay. Like you have.

[B]

If they don't.

[A]

But they get.

[C]

They get a high out of it though. Like.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, I get it though. If they're retired, if they're like older and they're retired and they have nothing else to do.

[C]

The thing is, you have to buy so much bulk to be able to do that shit. Then you're stuck with like 7,500 rolls of toilet paper.

[A]

It's like the cheap bathroom tissue one too. Yeah.

[D]

Look at this. She's got 20 boxes of Lucky Charms.

[B]

Why? This shit's going to go stale.

[A]

I think also extreme sweepstakes. People who just. All they do all day is entering contests is kind of interesting because if you enter like a thousand contests like every single day, ye. You're going to eventually win some of those.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And you don't know what it is, but they just are sitting there entering, entering, entering. And eventually they get free stuff. They get your supply of this. They could get a free car.

[B]

But it's so like, I can't imagine looking at a Lucky Charms box And seeing sweepstakes and going to my computer and typing in Lucky Charms.com and entering into the sweepstakes. I don't care. All that. Even if I was a kid, I could never imagine myself spending the time to it, because in my head is like, oh, this is just like.

[C]

Is not like, you're not gonna win.

[B]

It's not real.

[A]

Yeah. Have you. I know. Have you ever met anybody who's, like, won a car? You know, at the mall when you were a kid, there would just be, like, the whole car and you could enter to win the car?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I never knew anybody who won that.

[D]

No.

[B]

No.

[A]

My dad was always like, don't put our information on it, because I wanted to do it every time. He's like, I think.

[B]

I think you had more of a chance of winning a car from David Dobrik than these fucking cereal boxes or any of these, like, sweepstakes.

[A]

I was so close to winning a Tesla one time.

[B]

You should have seen the amount of people that I knew hitting me up about when. When David would do his little car giveaways. The amount of friends that thought that I could just give them. Give them this car. I'm like, guys, there is a. Like, the fact that you are my friend. You will never win a car from David. Like, even if you did win, it

[C]

would still be weird. And you could.

[B]

They would redo it because they.

[A]

Conflict of interest.

[B]

Conflict of interest. So you would literally, like, you would have to. We'd have to unfollow each other and not speak for years in order for you to win that car.

[A]

But he had that dispo spinning wheel outside of his house. I was one off from getting a car. Yeah.

[D]

Heath is no longer in.

[B]

Heath. He seems to just not care about the show anymore.

[C]

Boy, I was pulling too much power, baby. So for those listening that don't know, I had to move my set out of the basement into this new area. So I think I. You know, I've never tested fully out here like that, and I think just too much power on one circuit. We just. We just popped.

[B]

We were dealing with this a lot in our last. Our last studio. We had to use, like, the bathroom outlets. We had to use, like, the outside outlets because the electricity was just not strong.

[C]

Oh, yeah. And people in the. In the guest room couldn't use a hair dryer. Yeah.

[B]

Anybody in the guest room, no hair dryer. They can't use anything that, like, requires more than a certain amount of power, or it would just shut down.

[D]

I remember I plugged in the lava lamp. One time. Time. Like when I. When I first started.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

And it, like, hit the whole thing.

[B]

Yes. And it's crazy with a house like that. Like, how the hell do you not put money into the electrical in that house? Damn.

[C]

Well, sorry. That was scary. Before we continue, we want to give a big thank you to our sponsor of this podcast, Veracity.

[B]

If you want to talk about scary, did you see the fucking crazy bitch that tried running over that kid in the neighborhood?

[A]

Yes. Yes.

[B]

Like, I shouldn't be laughing, but I was howling at this because I just. I can't imagine being so pissed at a kid on a.

[A]

Look at that.

[B]

At a kid on a bike where I'm trying to run him over to

[A]

Crazy out of a movie.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Like, I can't. Look at this.

[B]

Look at this.

[A]

Honestly, Perfect design for a sidewalk to drive a car down. I have never seen a clearing more perfect for. Look at this. It was like, try me. Like, try me in the.

[D]

Mom.

[A]

Must have been kind of encouraging of it just being like, get it. Like, let's get.

[B]

You saw the passenger seat. There was two people in that car that thought that was okay.

[C]

It looks like it's from a movie.

[A]

Boom.

[D]

Oh, my God.

[A]

And I think, though, she. She then drove home and Then the cops had to find her. And I think she was under the influence of alcohol. She had been drinking.

[B]

Damn, baby. It looks like it's a 2pm on a Tuesday.

[A]

What's crazy to me is someone could be in the aster. I believe in the article I read, do you recall chasing this child on the sidewalk? She goes, no. I'm like, dude, I could be obliterated. And I would remember that.

[C]

That would be the one thing that you flash back to.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

If you completely blacked out, you'd be like, oh, yeah. I definitely remember me trying to run a kid over.

[A]

You know, that kid went to school the next day. It was like, y', all, guess what happened to me. That is some, like, Dennis the Menace type.

[B]

But this is such a good point. Someone commented. So someone was filming the video not helping the child sooner. I'm like, actually, yeah. Why the Are you not.

[C]

I was just gonna say that they're just.

[A]

But it looks like the whole neighborhood was kind of aware that this lady was acting up because. Okay, when the camera goes this direction. Sorry. For the people who are listening. You see these guys out there on the street going, what are you doing? So.

[B]

Well, yeah, no, what they're doing is the appropriate thing. But this. I mean, it's a good thing this lady. Lady record or whoever recorded, recorded it.

[C]

But that little motorbike was going, though.

[B]

Yeah. Oh, he's gonna be a badass little Badass little boy. Honestly, he probably did something really shitty to provoke a lady to run you over. I don't know. It's crazy, though.

[D]

She's only getting attempted assault for this assault. Yeah.

[B]

I'm like, that's. That's murder.

[C]

That's attempted murder.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

If you're in a car trying to run, run. Yeah.

[D]

Yeah, that's murder. I don't.

[B]

Don't. If. If you're in a car and you're trying to, like, hit, like, a motorbike, like, on a street, like, or on a highway. That's attempted. Yeah, that's attempted.

[C]

That's attempted murder.

[B]

Why is it assault? Is it because of the little kid? Bellow. Bello kid.

[A]

It's opinions based. It's opinions based or it's a battery.

[B]

My lawyer. My lawyer.

[C]

Matt, you just did this. And it reminded me of, though. Remember we were making it really long.

[A]

Oh, yeah, we. As long as you can get that middle nice and taut.

[C]

Z look like a W.

[D]

You.

[A]

Oh, that's kind of cool. That's kind of edgy.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

I saw somebody do quotations like this

[A]

in the video like Star Trek, you know.

[C]

You know how they say so it would be like in quote.

[B]

Oh, that's amaz. I can't even do it. Look, I hate that.

[D]

I hate that with every fiber of my being.

[B]

I can't do it. I have like solid fingers, so I can't like.

[C]

Then that's up though. Trying to run over a kid is.

[B]

Thanks, Jared Journalism edits.

[C]

Matt, do you remember. Do you remember the. The pool triangle?

[A]

Yes. Oh, my God.

[B]

That, that. I felt bad because you're meeting Patricia's family for the first time.

[A]

For the first time. He funny little prank. Who don't remember. There was a prank where. I don't know if it was David's vlog. Your vlog.

[B]

It was also a trend on like. I remember seeing it on TikTok.

[A]

So it's a prank if you get a pool table triangle and someone shows you how to just flip it through your hands. But there's a way to do it to where it doesn't hit you in your mouth, but someone who does it when you give it to the other person, go, now you try.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

They're going to it up and they're going to smack their face with that pool. Trying to. Heath did it to me. Bam. Hit my nose. 1. When you get hit in the nose, you kind of start crying. It's a natural reflex. You know what a basketball hits you in the nose. It's just.

[B]

It doesn't feel good. Yeah.

[A]

So it was a combination of. Then I start tearing up and then my face. So it hurts. It felt like I got hit and I was like, my nose is probably going to go black. Like, it's going to swell up and it's. I'm going to have this mass, you know, like a black eye. And I was about to meet Patricia's parents for the first time in like a week. And I'm like, you gotta be kidding me. This cannot happening.

[B]

But it was fine though, right? Like the.

[A]

And Dylan France was there and I was crying. I was full on crying. I'm like, I just. I'm gonna meet Patricia.

[B]

I love how. Yeah, he had to add that. And Dylan Francis with Francis was like,

[A]

I think you're gonna be fine, dude.

[C]

He uses your crying as like an audio clip for a song.

[B]

Just. But Patricia's dad. Dad, dad.

[C]

I'm gonna meet her parents.

[B]

Yeah, that. That one was like, funny. And then it was. Was like, oh. And then as soon as you're like, I'm about to meet her parents, I

[A]

was like, oh, yeah.

[B]

Remember when I. I don't know what the. I was doing, but, like, the Tesla just hit my head. Like the side view mirror. Just like, I. I was. I don't know what I was doing, but I was just like, do it like. Like that. And then the Tesla hit my head, and then I had to go get a stitches something. Right. What?

[C]

I don't remember. I. Dude, the. I understand now when. What's his name? Freddie. From Malcolm in the Middle.

[B]

Freddie.

[C]

Frankie. Frankie Muniz. How he, like, doesn't remember filming it. I kind of get it. There's so much I don't remember filming from David's vlogs.

[B]

It's because we were drunk.

[A]

No. Yeah. There's times where I'm seeing clips and I'm like, I don't even remember that. There's times. Also doing this podcast. It's crazy. I've been seeing a lot of old clips from when we were at Heath and Mariah's, like, first house.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And you can tell kind of how shy we were. Y too. Like, we were not comfortable, like, talking in front of a mic, in front of a camera and stuff. Like, we're so careful and, like, a little bit stiff. But there's certain segments I'm like, I have no clue when this took place. Yeah. No memory of it.

[B]

Natalie was telling me in Miami how her and Reggie, when we first moved into the apartment, they stayed there one night and slept on the floor on, like, a. On the couch.

[A]

At our apartment.

[B]

At our apartment. Apartment.

[A]

They did. Do you remember that? Yeah, they did. That was one of the first times I was meeting Reggie because they were working on painting David's, like, bedroom.

[B]

I know, but they were in our. They were sleeping in our apartment because

[A]

I was living down the road from you guys in that guest house.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

After my breakup, because I was crashing with you guys, and when I'd come over, I'd be like, oh, there's these people. Hi. Nice to meet y'.

[C]

All.

[B]

It was just.

[A]

I. I knew Natalie, but it was my first time meeting, like, you remember that?

[B]

Yeah, I know. I didn't believe her because I was like, I don't think that was our place. I don't think. No. Like, I think you're making that up in your head. It's like, no, we, like, slept on the floor in your guy's apartment. I was like, okay.

[A]

They slept on the L couch.

[B]

Yeah, the L couch. They were saying it was the blue couch.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

There's no way.

[C]

That is weird. Yeah, there's. There's clips I'll see from the podcast of us telling stories. And I'm like, I completely forgot that that even happened. And they're like crazy stories that happen to us.

[A]

I. There's times, though, when I go out in LA and because like, during that time of the Vlog Squad stuff, we met, we went to so many parties. We'd go to so many part parties in one night. There were probably times where I probably, yeah, talked to some person at that party, probably for 20 minutes. But they remember me, but I have no memory of them.

[B]

And it was so much.

[A]

It was so much going on. And I'll be out and they'll come up to me, hey, dude, don't you remember, like, one time? And I'm like, absolutely, of course. But I have no recollection of talking.

[B]

I'd be really bad with that. Like, you know, a normal person would be like, of course I remember you. But like, I'm like, just so honest.

[C]

Where I'm. Yeah, no, I don't remember.

[B]

No idea. I'm so sorry.

[A]

Sorry.

[B]

But I'm very apologetic about it. Like, I let them know. Like, it's not like, no, I don't remember you. Sorry. And I turn around. Like, I truly am apologetic, but I do, I am very honest about that.

[A]

Sometimes when people come up to me, I'm like, when was the last time I saw you? Like, or I say that, like, how long has it been? Where was it? And I'm like, oh, right.

[B]

I'm really bad with this too. It's like the same world, but you know how people go, oh, what are you doing next week? Let's. Let's grab lunch. And you know, most people would go, go, yeah, yeah, sure. Just like, text me. Like, you know, like, that's what normally people would do. I just go, oh, no, I can actually. I'm so sorry. No, no, I like, you know, you

[A]

say, I'm so busy, I can't do it. That's okay.

[B]

In Miami, there's this guy that was editing or filming us the whole time, and he was a really cool dude. And he was like, oh, we should work out sometime. And then I was like, no, I actually work out with a trainer every day. I mean, like, but. And I don't like to work out with anybody. But, like, if you want to, you can come. If you. If you want, you can come work out. And then I. I sat there, there. I was like, saying, just say. Just say okay. Just say yes. He probably. He probably doesn't even really mean it. He's probably doing it as like a. You know, something just to fill out the air.

[A]

Right.

[B]

And I came up. I came up with this whole thing, why we couldn't work out together. And then I just remember, like, not sleeping that night. I, like. I like, it kept me up all night. Like, Zane, what the fuck? Like, just like, why aren't you.

[C]

I could have. I could have just said yes. Yeah, let's work out sometime. Sure.

[B]

Yeah. Just. Sure. You know, it's most likely not going to happen because he probably doesn't fucking care.

[A]

It's just like.

[B]

Just. But you know who's the complete opposite of that? Todd. Todd. That. Empty promises is. Promises is insane. But he'll do it.

[C]

He'll do it for something in, like, five minutes. Like, you want to go get lunch? Yeah.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Oh, yeah. He'll go down to Redondo for fun.

[B]

He doesn't. He doesn't do it, though.

[A]

Well, he'll always hit me up. What are you doing tonight? What's your plan? And I'm telling my plan, but I'm like, but I know I'm not gonna see you.

[B]

You.

[A]

He loves thinking everything's a possibility. Yeah.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

But I love that he's looking for a box.

[C]

He's so sp with that stuff, though.

[B]

But he doesn't. But he doesn't commit to it. He never commits to it. Most of the time he doesn't commit to it. I used to live with him, so I. I dealt with it a lot. Every time.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

He's like, oh, we should do this. I'm like, yeah. And then, like, it just never happens.

[A]

I know. But I love his optimism. Thinking it's going.

[B]

I know, I know. I just. Because I'm the complete opposite. I. I usually. I'm just like, huh, huh? Because I'm just. I like, look at everything realistically, basically.

[A]

I do love plans, though.

[B]

No.

[A]

You know, the weekend. I love having a plan.

[B]

Oh, no, I think we all love plans.

[C]

I. I'm not a plan guy. I can't do it.

[A]

Like, even if it's someone's birthday party or something, you're like. You dread having that. Their plan. You have to commit to it.

[C]

No, like, if it's something basic like that, where it's like, okay, this is in, you know, four days, on the weekend, whatever. It starts at this time. Perfect. Like, I. I don't like the plans before a plan.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

Right.

[C]

Like, if it's. This is going on, I'll be there. Sure. I will. I don't have to think about it in the moment or the days leading up. I know this is happening and I will be there at that time. But if people will hit me up. What's your plan on? I don't have a plan on getting there. It's just like, I will be there. That's all I know.

[B]

That's. That's what you mean. Okay.

[C]

Like, I don't. I don't like the. Should we. Oh, should we ride together? If I come at this time, do you think you could. To, like, too much?

[B]

Oh, too much.

[A]

Get yourself there.

[B]

I'm getting an Uber there. Like, you don't have to come to me first. It's just going to take more time. Let's just. We'll meet there.

[A]

Yeah, but I'm always down to meet at a bar nearby and have a fight. Like, I'm always like, let's have a cheeky pint before. And then we walk and we meet there.

[B]

Yeah, we need to. We need to get a little bit of liquor.

[A]

I love a pregame.

[B]

Yeah, a little. I like a pregame because, you know, because you want to feel the. The best before the main function.

[A]

For sure. I love a welcome party. Like, oh, there's like a pregame the day before, before the big thing. Absolutely. I'm there.

[B]

I do. I. And I do love those type of things. I love bachelor. About, like, bachelorette. I love bachelor parties like that because you. You're meeting everybody for the first time. You're meeting friends. Friends of, like, the guy getting the groom.

[C]

There's always something weird, though, because, you know, they're equally as close with that person as you.

[A]

Yes.

[C]

But you're not. It's. You don't know them at all.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

I always feel so weird about that.

[A]

It's such a weird. Yeah. Mixture. When it's your bachelor party and you're like, I have my cousin here, my roommate, my best friend from high school. All of you guys are here in this room.

[C]

They don't know each other.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

And then you get to see them all get along by the end of it, though.

[A]

Todd's like, great friends with my cousin. They text all the time. I'm like, damn, that's great, guys.

[D]

Did you guys see the video of the girl trying to go through TSA with a whole bottle of tequila?

[B]

No.

[A]

Yeah, because you gotta chug it.

[C]

No.

[B]

Chug it.

[D]

Or chuck it.

[B]

And she chose to chug it. That's insane. Oh, my.

[A]

Yo, that making me gag.

[B]

She obviously doesn't know that you're not allowed to get on a plane too drunk.

[A]

I hope that is a quick flight, girl. Yeah, that better be a.

[D]

It is making me sick just thinking about it.

[B]

Dude, being that drunk on, like, a more than four hour flight. Flight. That's terrible.

[D]

Getting your stomach pumped drunk.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I'm surprised the TSA agents were like, sorry, not do that.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I'd be like, stop.

[B]

I'm surprised they even gave her the option, like, hey, either drink this or there's no way they did that. I think she just chose to do you know what?

[C]

But if I was here, I'd be like, you know what? With all the shit going on the United plane hitting a fucking truck on the highway.

[D]

Oh, my gosh.

[C]

Be like, you know what? I think I can drink this.

[B]

Oh, I thought he. I thought you were talking about the. The on, like, these airlines removing free snacks and free drinks now that. Now you're. You're gonna shoot, too. You are paying for it.

[C]

Whatever. If you got to take the snacks away to get me somewhere safely, you know what? Did you see the video of the. The guy driving a tractor trailer getting hit by the plane?

[A]

Like, wait, you're talking about the one where they hit a car on the tarmac?

[C]

No, this is another one that just happened, like, a day ago.

[B]

Oh, no, I didn't see this.

[D]

So that's the airport, and then he sees the plane coming in.

[A]

Boom.

[C]

Whoa. I'm over it. This is United.

[B]

Wait, did he die?

[C]

No, he didn't.

[A]

Oh, I bet he's gonna get paid, bro.

[B]

He never has to work a day in his life ever again, bro. He got hit by a plane.

[C]

How does this keep happening? I don't get it.

[B]

Wait, that's a bad mistake.

[A]

Yeah, yeah.

[B]

How the hell did he get too low like that?

[A]

I don't know. Do you think it was pilot error or air traffic control error?

[B]

Because it's pilot error.

[A]

But so many of the planes are, like, on autopilot, too.

[B]

Like, every plane, every plane landing, you're on the same route.

[C]

Landing.

[A]

Oh, gosh. Thank goodness he lived. But, yeah, that is pretty freaky.

[B]

Yeah, that is fucking insane. Oh, it was the truck.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

He's looking like, damn, that's close.

[A]

Boom. Well, ever since that one plane, what, a month ago that hit, like, a truck on the tarmac while it was, like, landing. Yeah, I think two people died, but that every time I land on a plane, I'm just like, pull. I'm worried about, like, we're gonna hit something.

[B]

I used to be excited about landing because it's usually, like, in the middle of the flight. Like turbulence. That would scare me. Now I don't give a.

[A]

It's the landing.

[B]

Now I just get so scared.

[D]

You had it all back backwards. Turbulent like.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

90 of crashes happen when you're taking off or landing.

[B]

And those are my. Those were the two points where I didn't feel like crazy, crazy, crazy.

[D]

And then I just saw a plane. I think it was China, but it was like such high winds that the plane was coming in and it like it was being blown so hard it was having to land at like a 45 or 30 degree angle. Angle. And then its engine scraped the. The tarmac and just like sparks.

[B]

That just came out. Right?

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

That video happened.

[B]

Oh my God. It's. Is it because we're not seeing all them or.

[A]

No.

[B]

Does this always happen? We're just not seeing.

[C]

I. I think it's just lately. Lately.

[B]

Don't you have to be working for many years to be flying before flying commercial?

[A]

Yeah. You have to log tons of miles. Yeah.

[D]

Of hours.

[A]

Hours. It's hours of flying, not miles.

[C]

I'm. I've getting. I'm getting really bad flight anxiety now. And I never used to think about it.

[D]

I.

[C]

It was just.

[B]

Okay, I would too.

[C]

I think it has to do with this. But also now having a kid where I'm just like, I'm leaving my fan. Like, I hate it.

[A]

How bad is it? Do you. I don't know. I don't want to like talk you out of it or say like you are valid in feeling anxious about it. But a great way to know is that there are thousands and thousands of flights happening every day successfully getting home.

[B]

It is crazy.

[A]

Like seeing a map. Yes. And when you're in the airport, all these planes are going places. Like it's not really going to happen to you. Just to calm it down, knowing that it's like your flight feels so significant because you're on it, but this is what's happening all the time.

[B]

Look at that. Like that's.

[C]

I know, I know.

[B]

That's insane.

[D]

This is just right now at this very moment.

[B]

And that's only in. In California.

[D]

And this is just Southwest.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Of the U.S. that's so.

[A]

Wow, look at. Damn. There's so many.

[B]

How are more planes not fucking crashing? Look at that. O my God.

[A]

That's disgusting.

[B]

Whoa. Oh. That's why this planet. That's why we're killing this planet. Look at this shit.

Did you, did I tell you guys, my brothers, you know how my brother's a pilot, right?

[A]

Huh?

[C]

Yeah, he, he has like his pilot's license, instrument rating. He used to fly a lot when he was younger, but when he was in school for getting his pilot's license, his instructor, he had an appointment to go fly. And the day of his flight, he's like getting ready to go there or whatever. His instructor, doctor, ended up dying in a plane crash with another student that day.

[B]

What?

[C]

My brother was going to be flying. So it was on the news and all of our family, like knew he was going out to fly and it was his instructor, so it was like insane. I don't know if he died on the student before my brother was supposed to go or the one right after my brother finished and then took the next student.

[A]

Oh my God.

[B]

That would sit with me for a really long time, actually forever. And I would actually never get on a plane again if I would just road trip.

[C]

And I was like, you still wanted to fly? And he was like, yeah, got a new instructor. But like, he loved Him, Dude. But yeah, it was the person. The student that was flying with him was doing the instrument. So they block out all your windows so you can't see. And I guess something with altitude. And it was a mid air collision. So another plane.

[A]

Oh, no.

[B]

Oh, my God. Can you imagine? Okay, like, two Koreans with two planes crash and. But you didn't die on impact. Now you're just flying in the air.

[C]

Like, I think about that all the time.

[B]

And you're just falling. You're like, oh, my God. Like, you. Now you have to, like, sit there, fallen for the next, like, what, minute and a half.

[C]

And you're, like, thinking about it.

[B]

This is it.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

You're taking pictures. Mental pictures from down. You like, oh, if I only had my. My phone. Imagine getting that content up midair.

[A]

Zane, you. You're immediately.

[B]

You're about to hit the ground. You're like, we have service now. We have service now. And then you have 30 more seconds.

[A]

I would be like, what song do I want to pick? I need, like, going like Midnight Sun. Never ending. Midnight Sun. Like, I would have to, like, just die going out with, like, that.

[B]

Great.

[A]

I want it. I mean, I would die a little, just with a little bit of joy.

[B]

No, but you should, like, play it and then go live.

[A]

Zane.

[D]

Oh, my God.

[A]

All respect, guys. All respect.

[D]

I mean, look, add that to the compilation.

[B]

Yeah, Zara. Zara Larson would do a snarky comment under that. She'd be like, yes, Slade, I killed it.

[C]

And then you killed it.

[A]

You should date Zara Larsen Tane. I think y' all would be a great match.

[B]

I don't think we would.

[A]

You don't think so? Y', all, like, funny. I'll dance. She's like a pop star.

[B]

She also has a boyfriend of, like, multiple years.

[A]

Oh, damn. She does. Okay. Oh, so you looked.

[B]

No, I actually didn't know this because somebody posted. They're like, oh, I forgot because I think James Charles tried talking to her boyfriend.

[A]

Oh.

[B]

And I think she freaked out on him. And I remember seeing that a long time ago, but I did. It didn't hit me that it was Zara Larson until somebody posted it a few times days ago. Then I was like, oh. And I didn't even know she had a boyfriend, but she had that boyfriend. Has been with her for, like, a long, long time.

[A]

Good for them.

[B]

Why didn't she ever post them, though?

[A]

Is he her choreographer or something like that?

[B]

Oh, really?

[A]

Why do I feel like I read that and maybe I totally forgot that?

[D]

Maybe a boyfriend that's a dance.

[B]

That's a thing Like I know that's a thing with PR where like they. They always tell their like artists or actor to not post your like significant other even if you've been with them for a time long. A long time but because

[A]

will lose the your mystique of being just sing or but like they don't want to see magic. It's a distraction of your own narrative.

[B]

To me that's so old school though. Like, that's such an old school way to think about that type. Like right.

[C]

Also, also I feel like it's the not Justin Bieber effect but if it's a couple that's a power couple and people love them as individual celebrities and they get to together, people are excited. Like Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. Both big celebrities, both fan bases. People love that. So then their own domain, like somebody that they don't know or somebody like. Like this opens it up to like negativity and people just hate because that's true.

[A]

It can ruin the trajectory of success too depending on like if a conflict happens like it can change up the narrative of how we have them in our mind because of this person in this entanglement and everything that they do

[B]

is now connected to you. Like if they up in any way it's just.

[A]

Yeah. Brings too much scrutiny to it.

[B]

That's so interesting. Maybe they're having issues.

[A]

Zane.

[C]

Why don't you find out? I love how Matt was just like, you should date her, Zane.

[B]

Yeah, because he loves her.

[A]

I'm a fan, dude.

[B]

No, that's what. No, that's what I meant.

[A]

Patricia loves Harry Styles though.

[B]

You see his new music video? He did he see what I sent you?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Him dancing in that song is literally me dancing drunk.

[C]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

You saw that?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Great in that music video. You would have been great in it.

[B]

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. At the minute I saw him dancing, I was like, oh my, this is me.

[A]

No, it's pretty damn good. You know what music video has great choreography though is that young lean music video. Have you seen it with like all those like English school boys and stuff and they're like young lean. We'll play it maybe in the unwind.

[B]

Yeah, we should play in the unwind.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

It's just this sick music video. The choreography is just. It's so cool how they executed it.

[B]

I mean, my favorite still my favorite style was I think it was Travis Scott who made that music video that was like. Like Sabrina Carpenter's orbit child music.

[A]

Yeah, it was like, no. Asap, Rocky. Taylor Swift.

[B]

Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[A]

That's the name of this song is called Taylor Swift but with no T. Yes.

[B]

Yeah, that was.

[A]

I.

[B]

That was like. I think that's still my favorite music video ever. It's so dope. You have. You have a game for us? Detective game.

[A]

Oh, no. But my friends and I, last Saturday we. We got back to their house and we were, like, kind of drunk. And she's always been wanting to play those detective games that give you like a whole cold case in a packet.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And a whole bunch of clues. We had the time of our lives.

[B]

It's a game or is it like a real. Like a.

[A]

It's a game and it's like a cold case. So you get this, like, letter, basically the boyfriend of this girl who was murdered. And. And you have to piece through all these clues of her items, like notes and stuff. And it was incredibly immersive.

[B]

What's not. And what's fun about those type of games is that you know that there is. There is like a.

[C]

An answer.

[B]

An answer to it. Even. Even if it takes you forever to get there, you know they're going to

[A]

give you an answer right now we've reached a roadblock, though, because there's this damn puzzle in it that we've been trying to solve. But I. It was my first time playing one of those games and I got such a kick out of it.

[B]

We.

[A]

We had highlighters out. We're going, what do you guys got over there? Like, well, I'm reading when they were talking to the cops and they said that they were at the lake around 3pm but she goes in the house to dry offers like.

[B]

And how is that. How is the game set? Is it like, are the. Are the. The documents, like, look like real documents?

[A]

Or is it like, there's like hotel room key cards and stuff? And we see a phone number on it, and we're like, wait, that looks like a real phone number. And we're like, should we call it? There's no way. And we call it and it's like this whole recorded message of a person working at the hotel giving you clues. And we were like. We had on speakerphone and we were going nuts.

[B]

Wait, is it like a real person? It's not like, automated.

[A]

It's a recording of somebody.

[B]

It's like a voice to be a real person.

[A]

I know that would have been pretty damn cool. The one he played, though, it was like, detective game. Lake, Lake, Lakeside, Slaughter. That's it.

[B]

The second image oh, so it's like a.

[A]

The last. I think that one is it.

[B]

So it's a. Wait, it's a board game. Like, it's like they give it to you in a box, and one case is in each box.

[A]

Yes. Yes. This is all exactly landing and stuff. And it's the case about Monica. We were just. We were loving it. And then they also. They had this, like, link, and we went to, like, the website, and it had security camera footage of the inside of their Airbnb and time stamps and stuff. And we're like, oh. So it looks like they're getting along at this point, but then it looks like there's an art.

[C]

So they. They filmed like. Like real actors.

[A]

Yes. Yes.

[B]

That's sick. That's such a good idea.

[A]

It's great with, like, three. If you did it solo, I feel like it would take forever. It's fun with, like, three or four people, and you're all piecing together just this information.

[B]

Oh, wow. Sick.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And how long does it, like, usually take to solve?

[A]

We spent probably two and a half hours doing it, and then we reached a roadblock, and we're like, all right, we got to call it a night. And we're just stuck on this one puzzle, though.

[B]

And that's.

[C]

I know finishing the game would be solving the murder, but, like, how do you. Like, how do you know for sure that you've solved it?

[A]

So is there, like, similar to, like, clue, where the answer, the solution to it all is in this envelope, and you cannot open it until you feel like you have solved means, motive, and, like, time and place for each character. That's how they kind of say, okay, write down all the suspects and then check off where you think they satisfy all three, like, what the weapon was, what the motive was, and why does it.

[B]

And I'll. In the answer. I'll tell you why.

[A]

Yeah. And how it all went down.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

So right now we think there's, like, a pregnancy, like, going on, but there's two girls where we can't tell who's pregnant or not.

[B]

This seems really intricate. Like, I. I really want.

[A]

Want to play this.

[B]

That's crazy.

[C]

Is there different murder? Like, is it only. There's only one game, or is there,

[A]

like, so many different editions? Dude. Okay, there's like, oh, murder at the theater or murder at the circus. Or, like, there's all of these different editions and one part that was really cool. Once again, guys, this is not an ad for it. We're just gabbing about this. There was like, oh, she made me a mixtape. And this is, like, the playlist of all the songs and stuff. But each of the songs had, like, riddles.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

We were, like, playing each song, like, reading the lyrics on the screen, trying to see if we could, like, figure out a clue. It was crazy.

[B]

I did not.

[C]

I knew.

[B]

I knew, like, this existed. I didn't think it was this intricate, like, this deep, that they would, like, hire actors to, like, film a video and. Wow.

[A]

So sick. Kind of fun.

[B]

All right, all right, I'll get it. I'll get it.

[A]

Damn. But it was only medium. It's difficult right now.

[C]

Oh, they have different difficulty medium.

[A]

Because the clue, the puzzle I'm looking at, I can't make sense of it at all. Maybe we can look at it and unwind, but it should only take you

[D]

90 to 120 minutes, so an hour and a half to two.

[B]

But if I'm. I'm sure they're drinking, though, so, I mean, like, you know, it's a little tougher when you're drunk trying to solve a case. Right?

[A]

Are you.

[B]

Are you drunk? Are you guys drinking while playing this?

[A]

Yeah, we were drinking. We also were a little high, and we were playing, like, detective ambiance music.

[B]

You cannot be high. You are trying to solve the. The case.

[D]

Could be fun to get, like, an easy level of this and maybe do that for, like, a bonus or something.

[A]

Of course.

[B]

That's fun.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

I love course have, like, a camera overhead on this little metal table.

[B]

So you see, you have to scan everything so they can, like. Like, they can put it on the

[D]

screen and play it. Why not?

[C]

No, let's do it live. And everybody could be watching. We could be going through clues together.

[D]

Oh, that's good.

[C]

Then we do, like, a speed run of it.

[B]

That's gonna be one long ass. But do we. Are we try. Do we have to solve it in the end of this live?

[A]

I don't know. That's the thing, is we could reach a roadblock. But sometimes there are hints. They do have hints on the website if you truly feel like you can't solve this one thing. But we were challenging ourselves not to.

[B]

Well, that's good. I give you hints along the way so you're not having to, like, ruin a whole.

[A]

Like, the puzzle we're on. I sat there when I went home and looked at it for 45 minutes, just in bed, just staring at this puzzle, trying to solve it, and nothing.

[B]

I don't think I'd be good at, like, solving puzzles.

[A]

Like. Yes, the cryptology Stuff, that's where it's tough. But looking at the main big picture of like, oh, where was she? She do that. Like, I wonder.

[B]

I wonder if I'd be really bad at this. Like, just like trying to solve a case that's on, like, easy mode and see how long it would take me by myself. Just takes me a year, guys. I got it. I figured completely different. Like, different. I get it all wrong.

[C]

You open the envelope,

[B]

dude. Before they bring people into the. Like into the force or the academy or like the FBI, they should make him play this game and see if it gets.

[A]

I bet. I bet you think they do.

[B]

They do this type of shit.

[A]

I wouldn't be surprised if they have some version of that. Yeah. Of just like. Yeah, a crash course. Cold case.

[C]

Figure it out.

[A]

You solve it as fast as you can.

[B]

Yeah, honestly, that's smart. I would, I. I would feel comfortable with someone being able to solve a case by themselves if they do the game.

[A]

Did you hear that record was broken from driving from coast to coast as fast as you can in a car. Like, a guy drove from speed run.

[C]

It was done during coke Covid.

[A]

I know now a guy just topped it. But he did the Jacksonville to San Diego route and he did it in 22 hours and like some minutes. Oh, he said, oh, 20, 22 hours and 38 minutes. When a Cadillac CT4V Black Wing averaged about 104 miles an hour and had a specialized 52 gallon fuel setup to minimize pit stops.

[B]

So he was up for. How long was he up for?

[A]

I think all 22 hours just driving.

[B]

I feel like that. That's like, that's illegal.

[A]

It is completely illegal because speeding the

[C]

entire time average average speed of 104 is crazy. Dude, look up the other one. That was done during company because I don't remember the.

[B]

Then that's. That. That's jail time.

[A]

Well, I don't know if like the guy driving it is like anonymous too. Like, he could be like an anonymous identity. When he posted, I don't think he's like, what's up, guys? Follow me to break the law. But that's just like crazy. The Cannonball record, that's a different route, though. That's from New York City to Redondo BEACH and that's 25 hours.

[B]

Do you think he coke the whole time?

[A]

I don't know. Probably a little bit. Probably. Definitely some Adderall.

[D]

How are they getting away with this? Averaging 100.

[A]

They modify all the routes. This takes months and months of planning to do it because. And you also have, like, representatives in, like, teams, like, in different cities, too, to like, make sure, like, have the gas pump already ready to go for you. So when you come up, it's just like, boom. And you can keep going. You don't have to get out your credit card and stuff. It's a team effort. And then you also have a police scanner, too, to make make sure you're, you know, not going to hit anything and you're going down all these side routes. It's a whole so much planning. But what's just freaky is that it keeps getting shorter and shorter and shorter. Like, that's. Someone's always going to want to top it. Covid was a perfect time to do it during lockdowns. That was brilliant for that guy to set that record. Yeah. Because, like, no one was out on the road.

[B]

Yeah, that's actually brilliant.

[C]

And that's the way to do it. It was a Audi S6 disguised as a Ford Taurus police car.

[D]

Oh, wait, what do you mean, did they do that?

[B]

How did he get away with that disguised as a police car?

[A]

Because, like, if a cop saw it, it would be, like, less suspicious. Like, because it looks like just a cop speeding. You could look like state trooper and no one's gonna, like, question that.

[B]

Dude, I would be fucking shitting bricks if I was driving around with a.

[D]

They put a Ford badge on it and a back. The blue or Blue Lives Matter sticker.

[A]

Brilliant.

[D]

On the top. The top of the roof.

[B]

Wait, and why did they do that?

[D]

So that they wouldn't get stopped by cops.

[B]

I know, but just on the top, though, you can't see that.

[D]

Insane.

[A]

Wow.

[B]

Honestly. Honestly, you would never get stopped by police if you had that on your car. Wait, look at this gas tank. Wait, guys, that's like.

[C]

It's a hack. You put like.

[B]

Yeah, that's genius. I think everybody, everybody in LA should just put one on their car.

[C]

Just get a Blue Lives Matter flag

[B]

and then I get a red one. I'd get a red one too, but the red one is for.

[A]

You're getting so close that you just pull into LA county and you're like.

[B]

Or no, at that point, it's like, it. You. You're trying to beat the record. It's like, follow me. Yeah, Officer, keep coming.

[D]

You just got a police escort at.

[A]

I got to do it. I got to make it.

[B]

I got to finish. But it's good that, like, they'll have like a mic going like, I've tried to beat the world record.

[C]

The guard's like pull over average speed of 110 is crazy. Crazy.

[A]

Yeah. And it has, it's just so modified and stuff. Like there's like so many screens on the inside giving them all their like, analytics and routes they need to take.

[B]

That's a lot of stuff. That's a lot of people that you have to hire along the way, right? To like just wait there just. And you don't get. They don't get anything out of this.

[C]

That one I don't think will ever be beaten though.

[A]

Yeah, I, I agree. Because the circumstances of the time during

[B]

COVID of course, hey, if hantavirus does its thing. Oh God, then somebody will probably be able to beat it.

[C]

That's the, that's the ploy. Somebody just wants the, the cannonball record. So they release Hantavirus.
