Episode Overview

On this wild and wide-ranging episode, the Unfiltered crew dives into recent headlines, shares personal stories, debates pop culture phenomena, and reacts to some truly jaw-dropping news. The main feature is an in-depth Florida man segment about a TikTok influencer and her family allegedly trying to hire a hitman, but there’s plenty of fun detours: from DMV horror stories, nostalgia over Beats by Dre, to the surprising (and questionable) return of Vine. The episode’s signature blend of chaotic humor and genuine camaraderie is on full display.

    • “Do you think it’s gonna be successful?” – Zane ([49:02])

• Vine Nostalgia

  • Reminiscing over their rank on the “Popular Now” and “On the Rise” pages, the thrill of competition, and the cultural gap between Vine’s bite-sized humor and TikTok’s often-long videos ([50:25]-[51:22]).

[Heath]

Especially for the Teen Vogue party.

[Matt]

Are you wearing Beats by Dre headphones?

[Heath]

I am.

[Guest]

I love full government name. Beats by Dre.

[Matt]

Beats by Dre. That was crazy. I think they're still popping with headphones. I don't feel like I like see them that much, but quality is good.

[Zane]

You see the. Well you see them. I thought they just. They're just a newer design now. So you just don't like.

[Guest]

It's more hidden like sleeker.

[Zane]

I think it's sleeker.

[Matt]

Like the logo isn't like as prominent as it used to be.

[Zane]

Yeah. Cuz I just received headphones and they look completely different.

[Guest]

Oh, I just, I'm packing up to move. I just found my first pair of beats that I ever owned. It was the first edition like when they first came out that would like

[Matt]

loud as like if loudest next to you. You could just hear that like you thought they were like so soundproof but like everyone in the room can hear what you're listening to.

[Heath]

They had a chokehold. He really did everybody back in the day. And also they were just paying for every single like movie spot, music video spot.

[Matt]

Everybody was just yes, yes. In the first five minutes of every music video. It's like, hold on, let me listen to this. This is just beats.

[Zane]

Remember, remember those commercials where it's like the.

[Matt]

Yes. Yes.

[Guest]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Didn't We. Yes. Y' all recreated that with, like, Liza stuff. Yes. You. You even made the video.

[Zane]

No, not this. No, no. They had commercials where it was, like, a phone, and they would be like, fisheye form, and they would, like, go

[Matt]

like that, saying, I'm pretty sure you made this video.

[Heath]

We did, like. We did, like, a.

[Zane]

We did something Beats, like, video, but it wasn't.

[Heath]

We were dancing around.

[Zane]

Yeah, it was. It was.

[Matt]

It was.

[Zane]

It was like. We were doing other stuff.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Zane]

But. Yeah, no, no, it was a Beats,

[Matt]

but that's the best. When you're moving, you get to, like, find all this stuff that has been just lost or forgotten that you. You've owned this entire time. You're like, there it is. I know.

[Guest]

I love going through my nostalgia box, like, everything that I keep just for memories that I never look through until I'm moving.

[Zane]

I. Yeah, I tend to. I. Well, I used to do that, but, like, I ended up just hoarding a lot of things. So now I just. Now I get rid of, like, three times a year. Three times a year. If I. I look at something, I'm like, if I have not touched this and it's not sentimental in, like, four months, trash or I give it away.

[Matt]

Anytime I had, like, a VIP pass from, like, an event, I would keep that. Be like, oh, yeah, gotta remember this. Yeah. It was just some, like, silly activation. And I'm like, all right, I gotta throw that away. But I do keep all of my, like, concert wristbands. Everyone from Coachella. I've kept Lollapalooza.

[Zane]

Really? Oh, those are the ones where I'm like, in my house. Like, should I keep it? I'm like, no. And I toss it.

[Matt]

But it's like, just. You put a little Ziploc bag. It doesn't take up that much space.

[Zane]

Yeah, but, I mean, do you take it off or you cut it?

[Matt]

Some are cut. Some have maybe been loosened up. I don't know. They're all indifferent.

[Zane]

They're cut. They're worthless. I think you got to keep it. You got to keep it intact.

[Matt]

Yes. Yeah. It's like, I think it would be cool to, like, frame one day and, like, a man cave or something just be like, yeah, your old little concert wristbands. Are you nostalgic about anything?

[Heath]

He. Matt, I was just about to chime in. Am so pissed right now. I just got my Tennessee driver's license.

[Matt]

Oh.

[Heath]

And I. I didn't, like, go back through all, like, because I had to bring out the proofs of residency, all sorts of Stuff, the passports, this, that. And it all happened so fast, which is crazy to say that the dmv, everything happened fast. But, dude, I was. I was the only person there, and it was like a great experience. I was like, oh, awesome. Let me just do this. Whatever.

[Zane]

Sorry. You had a good experience at the dmv. We're going to get into that after you're done.

[Matt]

Well, good.

[Heath]

Good and bad. And I'll. I'll tell you about that. But they took my picture. And it's funny because out. Out in L. A, they took the picture. When I did the license, they were like, okay, do you want to look at it? Do you like it? Do you want to redo it? We redid the picture. Redid it, like, three times out in L. A. And they were very like, okay, do you like this one? I'm like, yeah, that one's perfect. Let's do that. This. The lady was like, step back. Took the picture and then done that was.

[Guest]

Printed it.

[Heath]

I didn't even get to see the picture. I didn't see nothing. She gave me the temporary and was like, all right, you're good to go. And then I just. Oh, my. Okay, thank you.

[Zane]

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Sorry. This experience where they didn't let you take another one that was here, or

[Heath]

was that in Tennessee?

[Matt]

No, in Tennessee, la we're. It's all about the money maker.

[Zane]

They do not, bro. They do not. They did not let me retake mine.

[Heath]

I did mine, like, three different times until they were like, do you like this one? I'm like, perfect.

[Zane]

Oh, I had a completely different experience. Okay, okay. But in Tennessee, they. It was a one and done.

[Heath]

One and done. That's it. You're good to go. Bye. And I walked away. I got in the car, I started driving, and I was like, where's my California license?

[Matt]

Oh, no.

[Heath]

She threw it away.

[Matt]

No, at least hole. Punch it and give it to me back.

[Heath]

And I'm pissed because I have my Florida one, and I really wanted my California driver's license to have to, like, you're not.

[Zane]

You're not allowed to have that once you get a new one.

[Heath]

I. I guess it's their discretion if they give it back or usually they'll hold, punch it, and you could just.

[Zane]

Got it.

[Matt]

But maybe if you flip to a different state, they're just like, no, we have to take this. You should have just gone and go,

[Zane]

I don't have the people working the dmv. They sell that

[Matt]

dad give it to their nephew. Like, A fake id.

[Zane]

Fake id.

[Heath]

And it was good for a long time.

[Matt]

That's okay. Now, when you took your picture, did you smile? Teeth. Serious, Matt.

[Heath]

It was. I'm telling you, it was so fast. It was just like, all right, step back. But this is my face in it.

[Matt]

Like a mug shot face all my.

[Zane]

Every time I. Because I just got a new one and they wouldn't let me smile.

[Matt]

Oh, interesting.

[Zane]

Yeah, no, they. It's. They're like. Keep a straight face.

[Heath]

The one in la, they had, like, the thing you could see yourself. They had, like, the mirror set up, and you could, like, kind of like do it. Like you were, like, ready to take it. Not. Not a reflection anywhere in Tennessee. And I was just like this.

[Zane]

I'm so fucking confused because I. Every time I've gone to the DMV in LA and I've been to, like, different ones, no mirror, you couldn't look at yourself. No redo one quick shot, no smile. What DMV are you going to, Betty?

[Heath]

You got to go to Glendale.

[Matt]

Yeah, the Kardashian one.

[Zane]

You got to go to the Calabasas one. The Glendale one? Yeah, yeah, I'm going to the. Well, okay. Yeah. I mean, I guess I go. I do go to the ones that are like.

[Heath]

Not that there's like, major DMV ones and then there's like, the side DMVs are like, the smaller. Like, not as.

[Zane]

Like, I go to major. I go to major DMVs or something.

[Matt]

A too. Yeah.

[Heath]

You could do it at aaa.

[Matt]

Yeah, yeah. Triple A sometimes if you have AAA membership, there's certain things. If you maybe would normally be going to a. AAA can offer those services for you so you don't have to go wait in line. It depends on the service you need.

[Heath]

And what's stupid is like, the. The driver's license seems, I guess, a step below or not as important as a passport. To me, passport is like Holy Grail, like that should be. They do. You could take your own passport picture.

[Matt]

Yes. Which is strange.

[Heath]

Let me. Let me do that with my driver's license. Let me do a fucking photo shoot at the house.

[Zane]

The rules with that is so weird to me. Like, for instance, like, I did, like, a driver's license. You can't. You know, how now you go to. If you go to the airport, it just scans your face. You don't even need your passport anymore. In a lot of these airports, the fact that we still need to have our physical driver's license on us when we're, like, driving rent a Car. Anything is so crazy to me. I can't believe that we can't just send a form of ID whenever we want to rent a car or should

[Matt]

be on our Apple Wallet. It should be on our damn Apple Wallet. I don't understand that. Okay, the driver's license, like, the reality

[Heath]

won't let you, though.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Zane]

Places don't like. But places like, like, like bars won't take that. They won't take, like, a digital form of id, Right. You have to have it physical, which, like, makes no sense to me. Like, places are just like, we need to see the physical.

[Matt]

But I guess, like, it's proper identification. I mean, the system is just not in place yet. One day in 10 years, it will be. But it's just like, cops need to be able to, like, see your physical id. They know I know. Be like, step out of the car. Let me scan your face right now.

[Zane]

Like, I'm just. I'm just surprised that in airports you could just, like, walk through and you're good without a passport. But then a driver's like, you need that physical. It's like, yeah, need that thing on you. I don't carry a wallet anymore. Everything's on my phone.

[Heath]

Yep.

[Zane]

I haven't. Dude, I haven't carried, like, a credit card in a really long time.

[Matt]

Yeah, if you need that damn credit card, you can be leaving, like, a parking garage. And it's like, no, we don't do contactless pay. You need to have your card to

[Zane]

get out of there. Oh, that's when I skipped. I skip. I skipped.

[Heath]

That's when I just bust through the.

[Matt]

No.

[Zane]

And when they're like, you need a physical card? I go, I'm sorry, I only have an Apple wallet. And. And they'll let me through. Like, I've really gone. Gone through a lot without having a physical card on me. And when I do actually need it, I somehow make it work. Like, I just don't need it.

[Matt]

I have a terrible habit of still just, like, leaving my card at bars. Like, I open up a tab and I'm just like. And I just leave. And I don't go. I love nothing more when they go, hold on, I'm going to give it back to you.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Fuck yeah. That's how it should be. Yeah, don't take my fucking card. Yeah, sure. Maybe charge the 20%. I'll maybe close out if it's a decent, like. And there's no lies.

[Zane]

Drunk and drunk or sober. I just like, for some reason when I give my card and it Disappears. I just don't think about it anymore. It's like the last thing I'm thinking.

[Matt]

Oh, I've looked at lines. Like, when you've gone, you go up to close out, and you're like, I am waiting in this, leaving that card

[Zane]

there, and I'm just going to get

[Matt]

in the other one. I've done that many times. Yeah, but I need to adult better and be a little bit.

[Zane]

They should be able to open your tab from your Apple wallet. Oh, just bing. Keep it open. And then when you're gone, like, you haven't ordered, it just closes. And then you could put a tip on your phone.

[Matt]

They want you to keep it open, though. They want. Because they can charge that automatic 20 for the entire tab. Because, like, bars, really? It's like a dollar a beer, $2amixed drink.

[Zane]

Oh, it's not always 20. I didn't know there was an automatic 20. I thought it's automatic 20. It's not.

[Heath]

Maybe they. They're allowed to automatic it and they

[Matt]

can do, like, 22%. So. Yeah.

[Zane]

Oh, so I'd be. You want to. Want to open your tab? Want to open your tab?

[Heath]

Come on, you're going to be back.

[Zane]

I see someone. I see someone hammered. Oh, let's keep that tab open. But sometimes they tip a lot more. Sometimes they're drunk and they're like, you know what? I'mma tip you 50%. I love you.

[Matt]

But if I'm at an establishment and we got two damn bars, one on one floor, one on the other floor. I want the same system. Yeah. Oh, yeah, I want the same system. Don't say, oh, well, wait, is your card on the bar downstairs? No. And then I'm like, well, yeah, it is. They go, well, you got to go close that one and come up here. And I'm like, same establishment. I want the same system. All right, should we run that intro?

[Zane]

And. And that's. And I've just had it.

[Heath]

Those two ladies up to here.

[Zane]

I've had the two ladies. Those two, like. Those two, like, other ladies on that have a podcast.

[Guest]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Oh, yes. Yes.

[Heath]

Is.

[Zane]

Is that what the. Their. Their line is?

[Matt]

Absolutely not. That's Heather McMahon. They're like, it's too late. I've had it. I've. You know, I've had it. I've had it. Jennifer.

[Zane]

Well, just, you know, I have just had it.

[Matt]

Yeah, I've had that. I've had it. With bars having separate tabs for the two separate bars within a bar.

[Zane]

Yeah. We go, do they start every Episode like that is it because I. They got to bring it, you know, they have to bring. Bring it up at least one.

[Matt]

I don't. I don't know. I. But I like them. I like the clips.

[Zane]

Ours, we don't have one.

[Matt]

It was a different time.

[Zane]

We just steal Mariah's. We have a Florida man because we're

[Heath]

from Florida, but I have a Florida man for today.

[Zane]

You do. Let's run.

[Matt]

Let's run the intro.

[Heath]

All right, ready, guys?

[Zane]

Yeah. It's cockato, baby. Oh, That's. Oh, by the way.

[Matt]

Oh.

[Zane]

Welcome back to Zany Heath unfiltered. Thank you for being back here. I'm Zane.

[Heath]

I'm Heath.

[Matt]

I'm Matt.

[Zane]

I'm Jared. And my favorite sound. My favorite sound is the Apple pay payment.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah, lovely.

[Zane]

If I was rate from 1 to 10, my top 10 best sounds coming from an iPhone is that.

[Matt]

Oh, when you see that check mark, you're like, oh, done deal.

[Zane]

And like, and every time I hit it, I. Every time, every time, like, eat, like, like, just with how fast you could buy, like, tick tock, shop Amazon. I like, every time I push it through and it takes two seconds to buy it, I literally think to myself, God, I love this.

[Matt]

Oh, and when that face, when that's a face ID hits, you feel like a spy, kid. You feel like Agent Cody Banks. You're like, damn right. Access granted. And when the shipping is coming to my house too, like, you already, like, see it too, like, the whole order.

[Zane]

But sometimes it's so fast where it's. The wrong address is on there, your

[Matt]

heart skips a beat. You're like.

[Zane]

When you go. Because on, like on postpace, on doordash, you can't change the address once you buy it, right? It's. It's locked in.

[Heath]

I don't know if you could update

[Zane]

it now, like, as soon as you push it through. Because you know how sometimes like, oh, fuck, I pushed it through and you, like, can't. You can cancel it, but there's like a huge charge.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Sometimes it's not because you can't, like, change the address.

[Matt]

Well, once an establishment has confirmed your order, you're kind of. Yeah, yeah. Oh, and it's so embarrassing when it says, like, oh, the dasher is waiting for your order. Like, you're like, I hope they get it quick. And if they're, like, waiting and they're like, texting you, I'm waiting for your order. I'm like, I'm stressed.

[Zane]

Wait, wait, wait. Sorry, sorry.

[Matt]

What do you. What do you mean, like when you order doordash and then a person goes to the establishment to get your order, but they have to wait for like, a long time. I feel awful, though. I know it's not my fault.

[Zane]

Oh, yeah. I mean, it's like, it's almost like grocery shopping. You, like, feel bad because, you know they're in the store, like having to just walk around and find your shit. So. But, you know, I. But when I. But when I see. When I see my shopper is a woman, I immediately, I'm like, I feel like, stress free. It's beautiful. I love it.

[Heath]

Because, you know they're gonna get all your stuff that you wanted,

[Zane]

dude. I'm like, oh, I'm.

[Matt]

They don't have.

[Zane]

Like, me and my mom will look at each other like, oh, we should have went to the grocery store. And now we're. It's like, too late. This old dude is going to get everything wrong. He's going to say everything's out of stock when it's not really out of stock, and then he's going to grab the wrong shit. You have to go back.

[Matt]

Are you guys.

[Heath]

And they tried to replace things that you wanted with something else. That's just clearly not it.

[Zane]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Heath]

It's. It's so bad.

[Matt]

Yes. Just a terrible substitute.

[Zane]

The way you replace it is like it has to be off brand. Like it's another brand of the same item. They'll just grab another item.

[Heath]

We're out of. They're out of chicken breast, so I got you ground beef instead. That's not going to work.

[Zane]

[Matt]

Are you guys, like, people? If you order food, just leave it at the door. Right?

[Heath]

Yeah. Or do you meet at the door?

[Matt]

Well, I guess so. I'm like, I leave it at the door. But then sometimes they'll message I've arrived. Like, okay, okay, go leave it at the door. Are you wanting me to come out? I get scared.

[Zane]

Or like, you know what? It's. Because I think they've probably had so many instances where people get pissed, and I could see this. People getting pissed, like, you never told me you arrived or something. And their food gets, like, cold or something, which, you know, it's. It's such like a.

[Matt]

They're more just saying, like, I. I just wish the audit. Clearly it's an automated thing that's in their system that they're clicking, like, do you want to message them, I've arrived? Or, like, on the way, if you're a specific. But it should be like, I'm arrived, about to drop it off at your door. Just add that line. Just, I've arrived. Just feels so. I don't know. What's the word? There's daunting.

[Heath]

Nothing worse, though, than when you go to the door and you think it was already dropped off and they're at the door with it, and then they give it to you and you've got the bag in your hand, and they're like, I have to take a picture.

[Zane]

It's my favorite.

[Heath]

I hate that more than anything.

[Matt]

Yep. Yep. Got it. All right, thank you so much. Have a good night.

[Zane]

But why is it sometimes they have to take pictures and sometimes they don't? It's. And sometimes you need a pin and sometimes you don't. It's like, it's so random.

[Matt]

Oh, interesting.

[Zane]

They don't on the same app. Yeah. There's times where, like, I like. Or even Ubers. I'll get in the Uber, he'll go, what's the pin? I was like, it's weird. I'll get this maybe once every, like, six rides.

[Matt]

Oh, yes. I sometimes have had a pin thing, but maybe that. Maybe that's their preference, too. Like, they, as a driver, want to feel, like, a little safe because they don't want to risk. They May have had an incident in the past where they drive up someone and it was the wrong destination.

[Zane]

That's.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

You know, it's kind of frustrating. Like, sometimes you'll, like, it sucks when it happens, but it's also kind of fun. Like, you get, like, the. The doordash treasure hunt where it gets delivered to a wrong house. And then you just see the picture of where your bag is. Like, you're, like, trying to look for, like, a door number on it. And then you're, like, kind of, like walking around trying to see which house it got delivered to.

[Matt]

Oh, I love that. Nicholas Cage and National Treasure. I'm just like, there's a clue.

[Zane]

But then you see that it's not on your street. It's just. It's your street name, but on the other side of that city. And you're like, oh.

[Matt]

Oh, my toilet paper got dropped off at my neighbors. And then I went up to the doorstep and it was not there. So then I knocked, and I'm like, do you have my toilet paper? And he goes, oh, yeah. Yeah.

[Zane]

You said it. Just like that.

[Matt]

Well, I said. I said, no. I said, hey, was toilet paper delivered here? I think it's for us. It got to this address. He was like, yeah. He goes, how did you know that it was this house? I'm like, the picture. He was like, oh, it's already open.

[Heath]

There's a roll missing.

[Matt]

Yeah. Like, he was just like, oh, okay, here it is. And I'm like, you could have just left it on the doorstep, dude. Like, why did you have to feel like you have to take it?

[Zane]

Well, I understand why he brought it in, but because if I saw something at the door, I'd probably just bring it in and be like, oh, my wife probably ordered this or somebody ordered that.

[Matt]

Okay, true. Maybe he didn't even, like, truly check the package. He just thought he ordered Charman Ultra Leverage More.

[Zane]

Everybody buys toilet paper, right? Except for Heath.

[Heath]

We all poop.

[Matt]

Someone made a tick Tock. It's like, why we need commercials for toilet paper? Like, who out there not washing, wiping their ass?

[Zane]

Because there's different. I saw a comment like, it's because there's different brands. If there only one brand, then. Then they wouldn't have to do commercials.

[Matt]

Okay, Are y', all, like, loyal to a certain toilet paper brand? Charman.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Charming. All day.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

But I've been, like, curious, like, what is the other best charming?

[Zane]

I know. Well, I know Heath loves his toilet, his airplane toilet paper.

[Heath]

So why do you bring that up all the time. But your guest. The guest house that I stay at has single ply every time I come. So dull.

[Zane]

There was. There was like. There was one time he had airplane toilet paper at his like, old house and was just like, it's rude and I will never let him live that down.

[Heath]

One time. It was one time.

[Zane]

You just have to do this.

[Matt]

Yeah. It ain't less is more. It's more is less.

[Zane]

It's not even, you know, it's not even just airplane. It's. I just. I think it's every just public establishment. Establishment will have that. It's just cheaper.

[Heath]

But like public restroom toilet. And imagine if you came over and I had that roll that's like the 12 inch.

[Matt]

Oh, yes, the mega roll.

[Zane]

That's really funny. You should just have them there one day. Does this either.

[Matt]

Oh, quilt Northern Cottonell. Okay. Those are like legit. What's the.

[Heath]

What's the other one? Snuggie.

[Guest]

What's a. I think you're thinking of diapers Huggies.

[Matt]

This angel soft, though, like has a baby on it. Like, I don't need to be looking at a baby and then wiping my ass.

[Zane]

Well, it's saying it's as soft as a baby's bomb. I think that's what they mean.

[Matt]

Okay, then that's a little like.

[Zane]

No.

[Matt]

What's the toilet paper?

[Heath]

That's like.

[Matt]

Is it a teddy bear? There's a. See, there's like a.

[Heath]

A angel soft.

[Zane]

Used to be a real baby. Now it's an animated baby.

[Matt]

Cuz I think it's a dead baby. It's a dead baby. Oh, oh, sorry. It has its angel. It's a cherub. Okay, but it's a cherub.

[Zane]

That's not.

[Matt]

Is that what you call a cherub? Isn't it?

[Zane]

Yeah, but that's not a cherry. That's a baby. But it does look weird. It does look weird that there's like a real baby on there. You're right. It's like. Yeah, you should just.

[Matt]

I don't need to see that.

[Guest]

Yeah, yeah. Give me the animated bears.

[Zane]

Why we got to make him naked? You know, just like put some clothes on him.

[Matt]

Is the. Is the. Are the Charmin Bears, the Goldilocks bears? Like, did Goldilocks go up in their house and try to wipe?

[Zane]

No, but that's a good. Wait, it's brown. It's a brown bear, right?

[Matt]

I think they're. In the Goldilocks of three bears. I think they're ambiguous.

[Zane]

What do you mean? Are they black brown?

[Matt]

It doesn't matter

[Zane]

what it's. What type of bears. Oh, it's the blue.

[Matt]

Oh, we have a cast system in the charm of thing. We got brown bears, blue bears, red bears, ultrasoft, ultra strong. What kind of. Yeah, society is there?

[Zane]

I can see this not being taken away.

[Matt]

This is classes.

[Zane]

Yeah, I don't like this. Oh, we got a cast system. Oh, you know that they had to think real closely on the colors.

[Matt]

Oh, dear.

[Zane]

But, oh, Heath, your Florida story. What Florida story did you have for us prepared for today?

[Heath]

Let me, let me pull up the notes because it's a wild one. Like, it is.

[Zane]

We gotta come up with like a, like a song every time we're about to do a Florida segment and like, I don't know, we gotta come up with like a little segment song. Okay, sorry. I know, I like it because you make music, but. No, I'll do like a little.

[Heath]

Just. Let's just do the. The Plankton's cousin. This is kind of crazy because of, like, who's involved, but basically, a Florida family tried to hire a hitman to kill an ex boyfriend. Oh, and baby daddy, I've heard about this.

[Zane]

We love a good story.

[Heath]

There's a. A tick tocker named Gabby Gonzalez and her father, Francisco Gonzalez, and her ex, Kai Cordry. They were finally arrested on Friday in connection with an alleged 2021 scheme to kill Jack Avery, a former member of the boy band. Why don't we.

[Matt]

Why don't we kill him?

[Zane]

Why don't we. Is that band that Logan Paul. I remember a long time when Logan Paul was like a part of.

[Matt]

He either was like the Simon Cowell of like, the whole group.

[Zane]

Yeah, he either, like, he heavily pushed them and then they became big.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Zane]

Oh, wait, isn't the guy on the right Daniel. Daniel cv?

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Oh, and Jack Avery is the one on the left. Okay, so. And then. But his girlfriend, Gabby. What's her name? Gonzalez.

[Heath]

Gabby.

[Matt]

She's already a Tick Tock influencer. Okay.

[Heath]

Yes, she's a tick.

[Matt]

Has a baby with him.

[Heath]

Yeah. They have a daughter who's 7.

[Zane]

Okay.

[Heath]

Oh, boy. A while ago, it all started. They hired a private investigator to, like, find dirt and dig up stuff to have like a case, like for the custody battle.

[Matt]

Right, right.

[Zane]

Okay.

[Heath]

So they were trying to like, dig up stuff, blah, blah, blah, and that didn't do it. So then in March 2021, they started asking Cordry, like, her newer ex to recruit somebody to basically, like, harass him non stop. They ended up hiring an MMA fighter to, like, harass him and give him a hard time.

[Zane]

Okay.

[Heath]

Just kind of, like, bully this dude. Didn't work. They needed to go even further. So then her and her father went on the dark web to try to find a hitman. And we're, like, shopping around. Basically, they ended up wiring some guy 10 grand worth of bitcoin to kill

[Matt]

Jack Avery so she could get custody of the child and probably his money as well.

[Heath]

Basically, like, they. They. I guess there was, like, a custody issue. It wasn't working out. And the best thing that they decided was, okay, if he's dead, he can't have custody.

[Zane]

Yeah. Eliminate the problem.

[Matt]

Oh, my God. Her own father helping out with this.

[Zane]

Yeah. Fucking insane.

[Matt]

Ten grand.

[Zane]

That's it.

[Guest]

That's it.

[Zane]

That's all your life. You are. You are a TikTok influencer. I know. You make it more than that.

[Heath]

Come on, baby. You got brand deals.

[Zane]

Also the risk. Only 10k.

[Matt]

So they hire this hitman, and the hitman turns out to.

[Heath]

It doesn't happen.

[Matt]

Oh, it doesn't happen.

[Zane]

They find that. Yeah. Did they? Like, how did they figure it out? Did or so.

[Heath]

So the person that they had hired, I guess, was a scam, just took the 10 grand in Bitcoin and just, like, ghosted them King. So they went to hire a new hitman on the dark web, but it ended up being an undercover FBI agent.

[Matt]

Oh, gotcha.

[Zane]

I cannot believe they didn't look at that as a. Okay, like.

[Guest]

Like a sign.

[Zane]

A sign. Or like a. You know what?

[Matt]

Maybe this is a bad idea.

[Zane]

Maybe this is a bad idea.

[Heath]

No, they probably went, oh, that's what we get for cheaping out. Hire the next. What a crazy.

[Matt]

What kind of relationship. A father and daughter being like, no, okay, let's get another hitman. Like, I got you, sweetheart. No, let's book another one. Let's kill your baby daddy. That is crazy. As a father to, like, Like. It's weird. You never see a story like this with, like, a hitman type thing where, like, a dad is, like, also involved with his daughter in booking a hitman. Like, some trashy shit.

[Zane]

I'm just so curious of who the dad is. Like, is he this. Oh, that's the best part.

[Guest]

He's a prominent Florida attorney.

[Matt]

No. Yeah.

[Zane]

And he didn't think. And he thought that was a good idea.

[Matt]

Oh, that is. So. Yeah, he. I'm curious then once this all goes to court. But what's wild is this all happened in 2021. So they've been, like, sitting on this for a while, knowing that they could be going to jail because what's the status of it as of.

[Heath]

Right, so they just. They just got arrested. But basically what happened was the FBI agent informed Jack that there's a hit against him, so he did, like, the whole restraining order, everything like that. The three of them have been arrested. So Gabby, her dad, and then that Kai, the other boyfriend guy.

[Zane]

It was all three of them.

[Heath]

25 years to life in prison.

[Zane]

Good. Oh, Matt, can you imagine, like, this happens to you? Someone put a hit on you, and then they get like, you know, and then they go to jail. I would not be able to sleep ever again because I don't know if they have friends. What if they've already contacted other people to try to make it happen? Try to fucking finish the. Finish the problem. I don't know. It's.

[Matt]

Oh, you think? Like, they would still try to be after me? I feel like now they're like, no, they don't even want to with it anymore. I don't have custody of my child. I won.

[Zane]

No, I don't know. I don't know.

[Matt]

We're talking about an influencer. Like, it ain't like no crime boss coming out. Like, you're telling me.

[Zane]

I know you're telling me that if there wasn't a hit on you and like, you like, bro, I would need so much therapy to get me past that.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Zane]

I'd be just scared forever.

[Matt]

This is like some Fargo level. They need to use this plot for, like, a new season of Fargo. Yeah, this is. Oh, like, you know what I mean? Just like a clunky murder where it's like an influencer and her dad's helping her out, trying to kill her. Influencers in a boy band. I mean, this feels just written. Yeah. It's such a good plot.

[Heath]

Crazy.

[Matt]

Is the boy band still around? Are they still, like, poppin?

[Guest]

No, I think they broke up a while ago, but they're all doing their own thing. Like, Daniel Seavey is. Has these amazing concerts where he'll.

[Heath]

He's been killing it.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Guest]

Like, he'll ask the crowd to give him, like, a song recommendation to cover and. And then he will perform all of the instruments on, like, a loop pedal and, like, build the song from scratch a little.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Guest]

Like, in his own style. It's really cool. It's sick. All the members are so tal. But this was just a crazy story.

[Matt]

Wow. Oh, wow. But we don't know fully how long they'll get convicted, like, because there's gonna be so much of the case they're gonna look at the text message. Who was like, the person to even put the idea in her head. Like, the dad could get even like, a tougher penalty.

[Zane]

That's what he came up with the idea.

[Matt]

But, God, that is really crazy.

[Zane]

Damn.

[Matt]

Imagine. Have you ever met Gabby Gonzalez?

[Zane]

I don't know who that is. No, no, no. She.

[Matt]

I mean, she could be walking down the street with Noah thing, but here.

[Zane]

The thing is that she could have. She could be just like a. Someone who maybe just started on TikTok and has maybe, like, you know, 20,000 followers on there.

[Matt]

Covid influencer, too.

[Zane]

It's a great headline. So I could see. I could see them take it, like, you know, leading into leaning into that. Oh, oh.

[Matt]

Lover of life. Mermaid at heart. More like killer murder at heart.

[Zane]

This girl. This girl. All right, guys, this girl has 462, 000 followers on Instagram. Baby girl, you're doing so well. Why are we even thinking. Thinking like that to ruin your life.

[Matt]

Open up message.

[Zane]

Wait, hear me out. I have an idea.

[Matt]

We're like, what?

[Zane]

Oh, she got. Wow.

[Matt]

Two million dollar bond.

[Zane]

Okay, wait, why are we releasing her? I thought, like, with something serious like this, you don't release them. You're still a long time. You can pay bond even when, like, a crime like that.

[Matt]

Yeah. Until you get convicted. You still got to go back to court, but, like, you can go chill at home, you know?

[Zane]

You know, she got released. She's, like, still trying to make it happen. Is she still trying to make it happen on that. On that $2 million bond? Finish the job.

[Matt]

How do bonds work? Like, it's like a loan, right?

[Heath]

Pay 10%.

[Matt]

You pay 10%, but then you have to keep paying that off over months or years.

[Zane]

Oh, no, I thought you didn't have to pay that off.

[Matt]

Off.

[Zane]

You have to pay that off.

[Heath]

What do you mean?

[Matt]

So you can pay the full bail amount set by the judge directly to the court in cash or by pledging property, like a house. If the defendant attends all court dates, this money is refunded at the end of the case, minus minor administrative fees. Oh, so it's just.

[Heath]

It's just like a. A promise that you will show up in court, that you're not going to flee or. You know what I mean?

[Zane]

Okay, so if you do flee, that's when the $2 million is like, then

[Matt]

they're really going to come collect because that's in what Dog the Bounty Hunter was.

[Zane]

I just like how you said that

[Matt]

because he would go after people that did because they were a jail bond place. And then he would go hunt down people who hadn't, like, paid their bounty, were on the run. Right.

[Zane]

I loved seeing. I love seeing him go after people.

[Heath]

That and like a repo man, like, seems like it would be a really fun job. But then at the same time, like, oh, it's just so risky.

[Matt]

Oh, you have to go get into some. The doc, the bounty hunter die.

[Guest]

I think so.

[Matt]

I remember his wife died, but he died. He was cool, but then he said the N word and then it was

[Zane]

like, okay, and you're done. That's it.

[Matt]

No, he's alive.

[Guest]

Oh, I thought he died.

[Zane]

I mean, he looks like.

[Heath]

He just looks like a wwe, like old school wrestler guy.

[Zane]

Just these guys, they love the sun.

[Matt]

It was like in Hawaii, his show. Right.

[Zane]

Oh, wow. I wonder why. Why do that shit in Hawaii? I feel like you get everybody at that point. There's no one left.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

On an island like that.

[Guest]

Speaking of repo man, I. I saw this. This was funny. A repo man is suing a woman after she parked her car in a way that made it impossible to repossess.

[Zane]

Love that.

[Matt]

Oh, brilliant.

[Heath]

Honestly, impressive to put it in like that.

[Zane]

How did she get that in?

[Matt]

That reminds me of, like, gold member and like Austin Powers, where he has that cart. He's in the hallway and it's just

[Zane]

like she was in there for a long time trying to get that in there. Like, this is. Well, I feel like, like, wouldn't you. Couldn't you just, like, remove the.

[Matt]

The wall?

[Zane]

Remove the. No, no. Remove the wheels.

[Heath]

And then you could put it on some sort of like, dolly and get right out.

[Zane]

Yeah, but it would take time.

[Heath]

You ever see, like, the videos of people that get their car repoed and then they, like, try to drive it off of the tow truck?

[Zane]

It's so funny. It's so funny because they know it's gonna. Their car up, but they just want to win in that situation.

[Heath]

Yeah, they're just. It's just an ego trip. Like, you're not getting it, but like, also at the same time, like, if you didn't pay for it and your car is getting repossessed, like, you are so in the wrong, like, how. How they think it's.

[Zane]

And now you just. Now you're paying for the damage you just cost to that car. You're putting more.

[Heath]

You're making it so much worse for yourself, dude.

[Zane]

You know, I've been. I'm. I've been seeing so. I've been seeing so much Road rage on my feed lately where people will get so pissed when somebody cuts somebody off. They'll drive those are around them and then stop up and. But dude, it, like, I've seen so many videos of people just attacking each other on the road where they're willing to their car up just to make it prove a point. Prove a point. It's so insane. Like, when someone cuts me off, you get pissed. You. Maybe you flick them off. That's it. But, like, to just now start fighting on the road where you're like, now you're gonna get your car hit is so insane to me.

[Heath]

Just give him the thumbs down. That's all you need.

[Zane]

He'll do this, he'll do a little pause like a.

[Matt]

Like that.

[Zane]

Just like, like, like a. I don't.

[Heath]

I don't flick anybody off anymore. I'm just like, this, you. Because it hurts so much more.

[Zane]

It does.

[Heath]

Like that. Whatever. But like, if you. If you did something wrong and you're. Somebody pulls up next to you and you're just like,

[Zane]

it does hit harder. Like, it's like, I'm not mad. I'm disappointed because you are such a bad driver. Poor you.

[Heath]

It's so good.

[Zane]

A middle finger is almost, like, funny. It's just. You can't. You don't take it seriously. You're just like a.

[Matt]

Whatever.

[Heath]

Because what do you give them? Like, if you got thumbs down, you can't. You don't.

[Matt]

You know what I mean?

[Heath]

Like, what do you give? A thumbs down back.

[Zane]

Yeah. It's like a spiritual ticket. You just got, like, ticketed by the cops. But, like, it, like, it hits your. A ticket to the heart.

[Guest]

A spiritual ticket.

[Zane]

Yeah. It's like, oh, God. You're like, maybe I shouldn't drive for the rest of the day.

[Matt]

I've been debating buying those, like, little. They look like little business cards. But they say, like, congrats, you parked like an asshole. And putting them on people's cars because, like, the way our parking situation is, it's like two cars can park on the curb in front of our place.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

But sometimes someone will just park in the middle of it.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

And it's like, I can't park in front of my house because you're hogging up both spaces. Like, what are you.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Are you not thinking about that? Or are you trying to hoard the spot for someone else?

[Zane]

Would you.

[Matt]

But I just want to, like, would

[Zane]

you go above and beyond, which I think you should, because I feel like it, like, makes you look stronger. You put on the bottom dash your friendly neighbor Matt Care. Like, you know, put a stamp on it. It's like, hey, love.

[Matt]

No, I don't want them coming after me. I just want them to be like, oh, yeah, I did park like an. And then just prevent it from the future.

[Heath]

LA is different, though, because there's times that I've had to park like that because it. Also. The trash bins. So when people pull their trash bins out, they put it, like, right there at the edge of the driveway. So then you can't. Technically.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

So sometimes you kind of have to park accordingly.

[Zane]

Oh, you.

[Heath]

And then the trash bins get taken away.

[Zane]

I always move trash. Trash bins.

[Matt]

It depends. If they're empty, I'll pull other people's trash cans. I feel like I'm working for them. Like, here we go. Just another day.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

But, yeah, I'll pull them back onto the curb so I can park.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

But I'll just like.

[Zane]

Like, stack it in a line.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Zane]

And then I'll park in front of it like a. I feel like they appreciate it. As long as you make it look nice. Then it doesn't look like you're, like, not being a dick, like, pushing their out of the way.

[Heath]

You know, Just bump it with your car. Just run it over.

[Zane]

Oh, I always bump it. Ever since. Because I got my. Actually, why am I talking about this?

[Heath]

Actually, let me stop.

[Zane]

I'm good. It was just a joke. You know, we're entertainers.

[Matt]

Yeah,

[Zane]

I was good. I was about to say. I see you're gonna say it anyway, because when. When I got my. Like two years ago, I got my lease. I got my Tesla. And the second day, I noticed a fucking rock or something flew in my tail light. And when something like, like your car up, you're just like, you know what? It. Whatever happens, happens. So now, like, if I'm backing up, I see a garbage can. I'm just like. Because the garbage can is not gonna, like, it's not gonna cause damage on their car. You know, it might leave a scruff. And then you, like, you take your jacket. You're like, all right, it's off. You know?

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

But it's funny. Sometimes I'll do it in front of, like, in front of people walking, and

[Matt]

they're just like, whoa.

[Zane]

You know, it's like really shocking when someone, like, hits something. Even a cone. It's just like a. Oh, like, it. It kind of like hits you back. I don't know. I look at. I look at cars as, like a. It's just stuff, you know, it's like whatever. Like, I don't get too pissed if like something. I don't get like as pissed as other people. And I've always felt like that about cars.

[Matt]

I agree. It's like, I don't mind like a little nick or a.

[Zane]

When you have a. When you owned pieces of cars for your entire life.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Like something was always hanging off it. Something was always scratched. Something is always broken. You just see every car like that in the future. Like anything you own.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

You're just like a. I used to like. Dude, my side view mirror, I used to have that hanging for like a year, a year and a half back in Florida when I was driving.

[Matt]

I was just like, that's right.

[Zane]

No, I know. Because I would. A duct tape. I couldn't afford it, so I would put duct tape like, like over and like the wind would obviously cause the duct tape to like make it fall back. And then I'd have to get new duct tape and put it back on this mitSubishi. It was 2K.

[Matt]

You had a Galant?

[Zane]

I paid 2K for it.

[Matt]

Oh, boy.

[Zane]

2K. It. It got me around for like two years until my transmission blew out. Not bad. Yeah, not bad at all. And then I was like, oh, that's fine. How much does it cost? They're like, it's gonna cost like 5k

[Matt]

more than what you paid for the car.

[Zane]

Oh, so the car's totaled? Yeah. Oh, yes. Oh, I miss. It was. It was like light. Light gray. Yeah.

[Matt]

Oh, that's kind of cool looking.

[Zane]

Yeah, I like. That was it. That was my first car. But like, it.

[Matt]

I was thinking of like the 2004 one, the uglier looking one to the left. I was like, oh, that's what I think of when I think of a Galant.

[Zane]

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah, it was a little bit. A little bit cooler looking, but yeah, it still looked really, really bad. They're rust.

[Guest]

How did they go from like Tokyo drift? Yeah, that, that.

[Zane]

Wait, that's the new. That's newer than the other.

[Guest]

I would.

[Matt]

Yeah, that's the older one.

[Guest]

Yeah, this is 97. And so that's 2004.

[Zane]

You know what I think the sharper looking car. What do you call those, like, sharp looking?

[Matt]

Like just sharp edges.

[Zane]

Yeah, hard edges. I think they're gonna come back really soon. People really want that because they're. Dude, the. Like every now, every time there's a newer version of a car, it's just getting rounder and rounder. It's about to look like.

[Heath]

Oh, my God.

[Zane]

[Heath]

Remember we talked about the interior of the new Ferrari? Did you just see they released what the actual car looks like? Zayn.

[Matt]

Oh, no. It's bad.

[Heath]

It's really bad.

[Matt]

It's not even like that cool, futuristic looking. It's just. Wait, hold on.

[Zane]

This is the Luce? Why? This is not what I saw.

[Guest]

Look at this.

[Matt]

Is it electric?

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Yeah. OK, that makes sense.

[Heath]

And it's $600,000.

[Zane]

Ugh. Heath, remember when I told you. Oh, my God, dude, the Luce, like, I really. This was not. The photos I saw, you might have seen.

[Guest]

I saw a super viral post of a like a CGI artist or something who did their own rendition of like what it could have looked like.

[Zane]

Okay, maybe can you pull that up? Yeah.

[Guest]

I wonder. Let me see.

[Zane]

Because, dude, that's not what it's supposed to look like. That's crazy. What were they thinking?

[Heath]

The interior was like released like months ago and then they just unveiled like the actual look of the car.

[Matt]

Oh, boy. Why make it look electric? Like, that's the thing. I think people want to get a Ferrari that is electric but looks like a fucking mean ass Ferrari.

[Zane]

Heath. I think, I think I remember asking you this and you told me something. I think you looked it up and you gave me an answer of like, why they do that? Like why they make electric cars look electric and look like that.

[Guest]

Were these the folks they could Just

[Zane]

easily make it look like a gas car.

[Guest]

Because this is a redesign.

[Zane]

Okay.

[Guest]

Somebody did.

[Zane]

Okay. That's what I saw. Yeah.

[Guest]

This is sick.

[Matt]

I love this.

[Zane]

That's what that was. That's what they were supposed to make it look like. Why didn't they do that?

[Matt]

Yeah, because it doesn't look like they put the vents on the sides. Pardoned us for the people listening, but. Yeah.

[Zane]

Yeah, but you know what? Even you see, like, the. What do you call the. The. The. The gas. The. The brake pedal. The brake.

[Guest]

The caliper.

[Heath]

The tail light.

[Zane]

Yeah, the. The caliper, like in the rims, like on electric cars. Just put it there for the look.

[Matt]

Yeah, it looks cool.

[Zane]

Just make it look like a gas car.

[Matt]

I didn't know that was the name of it. A caliper.

[Zane]

I didn't know that either. I thought it was called the rim or a brake.

[Guest]

Like a brake pen.

[Zane]

A brake pad. Yeah, a brake pen.

[Matt]

That looks sick.

[Zane]

Do you know what I mean? But just, like, put the characteristics of a gas car on an electric car to make it. To give that gas. Like, to give that. Yeah.

[Heath]

I don't know why they. They make it look so electric and weird.

[Zane]

Because who likes that shit?

[Guest]

That's how I've always felt about the front of electric cars, because I know that electric cars don't need the air intake to cool down the engine, so they get rid of the grill, and it's just, like, one big plastic piece. That always pisses me off because, like, the grill can make or break a car.

[Matt]

Y. It's like the mouth of it.

[Guest]

Yes.

[Zane]

You know, Lucia more like do.

[Matt]

Am I right?

[Heath]

Not us getting worked up over a 600, 000 Ferrari that we would.

[Zane]

Yeah, like, if it was the first design, that we'd buy it.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Guest]

But people are comparing it to, like, the new BYD electric supercar that just came out.

[Zane]

Yeah, that. That's what the. I'm talking about. Look at that.

[Matt]

Yeah, look at that.

[Guest]

And it's a third of the price.

[Zane]

I feel like they do this purposely. Like, they. Like. Like everybody in the room is like, this. No. Oh, this looks ugly. Let's do it.

[Matt]

Like, there's no.

[Zane]

Like, there has to be a reason why. Yeah. I don't get it.

[Matt]

I think it's, like, shareholders and stuff, too, and they think, like. Oh, by making it, like, more aerodynamic, it can, like, look faster on paper. Like, there's all this weird.

[Zane]

Do you think they're, like, trying to meet a market with Ferrari?

[Heath]

Who knows? Maybe they purposefully Made it that ugly to show that nobody wants to buy an electric Ferrari. Be like, listen, we tried it and this is why we can't do the electric program.

[Zane]

Or maybe they're. They want to. Maybe they're like, if we make this look nothing like our original, like our cars, then it's going to meet. Or we can hit a different demographic of people.

[Matt]

True. That looks more feminine too. So it's also like guys who probably Ferrari purists who are like, oh, I'm gonna have the gas one, but I'm gonna get my wife an electric one. And I don't know, it looks a little bit more feminine.

[Zane]

You think so?

[Matt]

Like, I feel like it. Yeah, it kind of looks a little girly. All respect.

[Zane]

All respect to me. Like, you see, I don't like what Tesla's look like. Like, personally like my car. I don't. I don't like the look of it. I just drive it though.

[Heath]

That looks like your face was really.

[Matt]

I'm like, I agree with you. I don't think they don't look good.

[Zane]

That looks like a Tesla. Why? Why make it look like a Tesla?

[Matt]

Yeah, yeah.

[Heath]

It looks like a Nissan or like some sort of just like, like, just a normal Nissan electric car. Yeah.

[Zane]

Ladies, would you buy this shit?

[Guest]

Looks like a fucking Leaf. Nissan Leaf.

[Zane]

Yep.

[Matt]

But a lot of people buy Ferraris don't have good taste.

[Zane]

Oh, God. Heath, Remember when Emily Malka got that for her birthday, her 15th?

[Heath]

No, she. She got the Honda Fit, bruh.

[Zane]

It's crazy. When we saw. We're like, holy.

[Heath]

Yeah, she got surprised with a brand new Honda Fit.

[Zane]

For now, looking back, I'm like like, damn.

[Heath]

Was that like 18th birthday party?

[Zane]

I. I was honestly, I was surprised that I got invited to that. I was like, oh, wow, she likes me.

[Matt]

I always like the car from the movie Sleepover from like the early 2000s. Look up sleepover.

[Zane]

Nissan car, Sleepover.

[Matt]

It was like with Alexa Vega, the girl from Spy Kids. Sarah Paxton.

[Zane]

Damn. Where's she at now? I have not seen being a mom in it.

[Matt]

Yes. I wanted that car. I love it. I love a little ugly looking electric car.

[Heath]

Every car in Europe looks like.

[Zane]

Yeah, literally anywhere but America. Their cars look like that.

[Matt]

The Nissan Hyper Mini for the people want to Google it.

[Zane]

Oh, God.

[Matt]

Did y' all hear that vine is coming back?

[Zane]

Okay, I saw that and I also got an email and a DM from like the Thing Called Divine. Is that so that's it, Jack.

[Matt]

It's so. It's Jack Dorsey. Jack Dorsey was the founder of Twitter, but he doesn't own X because remember, Elon was talking about, oh, I'm going to bring back vine and. Yeah, so. But this is not. Oh, shout out to Sophie Flay.

[Zane]

I literally thought that it was like one of those, like, apps are, like, we're bringing your vine videos back. I like, I thought. I've seen apps like that before try to do it.

[Matt]

So I thought it was apparently 500, 000 of like, the top vines are, like, uploaded onto it right now. Like, are. So. But the thing is, you have to get invited and they've asked former vine creators to get access to it, which I'm like, Like, we. I. Have you all gotten the invite or I guess you did. What was your email?

[Zane]

I did. I just.

[Heath]

I think it was on Instagram.

[Matt]

Oh, here, I'm in here.

[Zane]

Let me. What's. What's the app called again?

[Matt]

Divine D I V I N E.

[Zane]

Okay, let me read the DM that

[Matt]

they sent me so I know it's an early access, like, beta testing.

[Zane]

Okay.

[Matt]

Zone.

[Zane]

Hey, you may have heard about Divine the 6.6second video loop after retrieving Archive Vines and promising to eliminate AI slot for new human made content. I like that. We've recovered your and Heath's original Vine count. Vine, sand and Heath, if you want to reclaim your account, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

[Matt]

Get your followers back.

[Zane]

No, I don't think so. Our launch date isn't quite set yet, but it's coming. But. And this was in March, so you

[Heath]

know why they called it Divine? Why do it for Divine?

[Guest]

There's the dad jokes.

[Matt]

Yeah. Oh, they did reach out to me. All right. But they're like, we've recovered your original vine account.

[Zane]

So I'm like, but your original vine account. But the followers I don't like, are. I don't think you're. And it doesn't even matter if you got your followers back, because it's going to mean nothing. None of them are on the.

[Matt]

I guess. True. Yeah, you're right. You're right. That's a good point. So it's interesting. That's coming back. I can't believe. 1. It's six seconds still. Like, shouldn't you try to compete with, like.

[Zane]

I feel like. No, I, I think just stick with it.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Zane]

With it. I. You know what? I think they can give you an extra at least two seconds. Three seconds.

[Guest]

Keep it under 10.

[Zane]

Keep it under.

[Matt]

Yeah, under 10 seconds. We were just doing, like, sketches, just trying.

[Zane]

It's, it's, it's. It's a little too short. And I remember I rem us saying this. We were always setting back then when we're doing Vines, we just need a few more seconds.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

And then I feel like they did

[Matt]

do that towards the end. They did kind of open up the gates a little bit more.

[Zane]

They opened it up to two minutes, and that's when I was just done. I was like, okay, now we turned it into YouTube. It's like, or ammo.

[Matt]

But look, a little cherub icon. A little dead baby.

[Zane]

Wait, but I get that because Vine, Back from the dead. Back from the dead.

[Guest]

Get that.

[Zane]

That makes sense. Do you think it's gonna. Do you think it's gonna be successful?

[Matt]

Well, the thing is, I. Because it's its own independent app. I think it might struggle, though, because I thought by, you know, x Twitter, bringing vine back, I was like, oh, because they want to compete with reels and stuff, like, to have, like, its own little, like, area to scroll, and that's already living within another social media app. I'm like, that makes sense.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Divine. It's because its own separate app. It's just like. Like, I don't know. How bored would you have to be with Tick Tock to be like, okay, now I gotta go check out Divine. Or it's gonna be more of a nostalgic kind of thing, I think.

[Zane]

Nostalgic? I think the older people that are gonna go back and download it, maybe those videos can re circulate onto Tick Tock onto reels. Because I'm sure if they're gonna make this app or when you save a video or, like, you try to take the video, it takes the icon a little watermark.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

I feel like there's ways where they can, like, promote themselves and get newer people onto the app. And they'll see older people talking about vine so much, where they'll be interested to download the app and check out what's on.

[Matt]

Okay, so, yeah, I'm curious.

[Zane]

Or they might do little social media campaigns like Tik Tok did, you know, like, having people, like, giving people money to post Vines every week. And then.

[Matt]

Yeah, you know, it'd be nice to see a proper algorithm because on vine, it was all chronological, too. And then if you followed one damn account, there were all those reposts. People were. People spammed out the feed.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

For Revine Baby, it was a wasteland fandom.

[Zane]

But, like, I want them to bring the popular now page. The fact that they had it like. Like, status, like, top video second on the rise.

[Matt]

Remember it was like it was trending now. There was like there was popular and

[Zane]

on the rise and on the Rise. On the Rise was great because on the Rise a lot of times had much funnier videos on there because they were like the, the smaller accounts that were like really, really funny. And it's like they see a little bit of like traction higher than normal. So they'll like throw them up on the, on the rise. And I think that's on the rise. I think it was creators that were picked, I think hand picked, I think by people at vine. Right?

[Matt]

Yes. It was a curated like pick.

[Zane]

Yeah, yeah.

[Matt]

Like I love that. Editor's choice.

[Zane]

Yeah. And I think they should bring that back. There's something so cool about like Heath, Remember those days where we'd be like, bro, we're number four. Bro, we're number three. There was something so exciting. But you know, people these days, they don't like competition anymore, so they probably won't.

[Zane]

There was one video that we had that was number one. Do you remember that vine that.

[Heath]

We only had one that went one,

[Zane]

I think like later, like down the line when we moved to la. I think that's when we were on the popular now, maybe more. But like, this was back when our first one where we hit number one and we were freaking out.

[Heath]

Out.

[Zane]

Oh, my God.

[Heath]

Was it the. Was it the one with the. The roasted chicken in my backyard?

[Zane]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Matt]

The one with the baby like, get in, loser. We're going shopping.

[Zane]

That was our first one, but our first one that hit where every. Every single. A big viner was commenting under it and we're like, oh, my God, it's happening like big binders.

[Heath]

Which one was it?

[Matt]

Some lingery for the bank?

[Zane]

It was. No, no, no, it was the. It was the. The Cinderella vine where it was a Cinderella carousel.

[Heath]

Oh, yes.

[Zane]

We're running out of your house and I fall on the pumpkin. It was like.

[Heath]

That was the. Get in, loser. We're going shopping.

[Zane]

Get in, loser, we're going shopping. Yes. Did you say that?

[Matt]

Yes, I did. Oh, you did.

[Zane]

I thought you said lingery for the bay.

[Matt]

Run it back. No, I was just. I was trying to just recite any vines that y' all made.

[Heath]

Scoot over, going to Target. You're gonna get some lingerie for the bay.

[Guest]

I could see Divine carving out a niche for people that just want a laugh.

[Matt]

Right?

[Guest]

Because when you go into like TikTok especially.

[Zane]

Yeah, every.

[Guest]

Every other video is a ad. Pisses me off. And then it's just like their algorithm, I feel like, has gotten so much worse where it's just so all over the place that, you know, I go on there and it's like the first videos, a ten minute fucking documentary and you're hooked.

[Zane]

That's so true.

[Guest]

And then the second video is, I don't know, something like, like a music artist promoting their song and then blah, blah, blah. It's just like I never feel like I get the laugh that I want.

[Matt]

Yeah, I just want a little bite size.

[Zane]

Because you're not. You're not gonna get anything informational on there. You're not gonna get any, any like, media like reporting. You're not gonna get any thing political on there. You're not gonna get anything that's gonna. Like, honestly, that's like. That's like, honestly too much on our feeds right now. Like, you just want to go to an app and only laugh. Like, that's all you're gonna see on the. This app. And I feel like they need to bring something, whether it's defined, whether it's anything. Just bring something back where, like, I just want to laugh.

[Heath]

I don't hate that you, like, watch one thing and it thinks that's all you. I watched one video comparing watches. It was like this vintage watch video, and it was cool. It was like, it was interesting. And now every two videos is like, watches. And I'm like, I don't want to dislike it because, like, I thought it was interesting. Like, I don't mind watching content, but then it's like, I don't need to see that every. Every video. Now I'm like, come on.

[Zane]

The algorithm is like, it, like, feeds you.

[Heath]

It's too aggressive.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah. Something so interesting, and I want to like it, but I'm like, but I don't want to see more of this. Yeah. So, yeah, I get very, like, oh, God, help.

[Zane]

If you watch something for longer than a minute.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Your whole week is screwed. That's all you're gonna see. And then I'm like, all right, I gotta get off for that for the next week.

[Matt]

I know. And then I'm just, like, sucked into Astrovina lore forever,

[Zane]

you know?

[Matt]

If not, I'm staying at Shoty Bay's house. Oh, Ashley.

[Zane]

She's, like, Shoddy Bay.

[Heath]

She's like, another one word I didn't know you were talking about.

[Matt]

Yeah, I know.

[Zane]

I thought you're saying something like, like,

[Matt]

so sucked into these, like, people who

[Zane]

are, like, so unimportant. That's the thing, guys. I always watch that. I don't want to watch. Like, I truly don't want to watch. I sit there, I'm like, oh, God, this is. But it's just, like, negative.

[Matt]

And the algorithm will drop you in, like, part four of, like, someone getting arrested. And you're like, hold on a second. I gotta go way back.

[Zane]

And then you're like, to see this?

[Matt]

Yeah, you got to see it all the way through. Astrovino, get her on the pod. I'd love to.

[Zane]

Speaking of, did. There was something that I watched for the full thing, and now I'm getting a bunch of conspiracy theories or a bunch of, like, that. Now. There was one. Have you ever heard of the guy? His name is, like, Art Bell. He had, like, a Giant hole in his. On his property. Like a nine foot hole that went so far deep into the earth.

[Matt]

And he would drop stuff.

[Zane]

He would drop in there.

[Matt]

Like this was on vine or tick tock.

[Zane]

On tick tock.

[Matt]

Yes. A long time ago.

[Zane]

Oh, that's an old story.

[Matt]

Story, I guess.

[Zane]

Oh, I don't know.

[Matt]

I've seen people who have holes in their backyard and they drop down. I. This may be a whole different story.

[Zane]

Yeah, they would like drop like just big like refrigerators. Just giant. And like they can't even hear it. Like it's so far down where they came and hear it. Like, this is bigger than I thought.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Zane]

And then it was.

[Heath]

It was always there. Or did they dig a hole?

[Zane]

No, it was always there. It was always there. This giant hole. It has to do with like a seal. Like, like a feat. A seal fetus that was in the whole. I don't know.

[Matt]

What are you talking about?

[Guest]

It sounds like a fever.

[Matt]

Sounds like a dream.

[Zane]

It caused it. Like it cured cancer.

[Matt]

Same thing. What the Are you. I was hooked.

[Zane]

I had on drugs. I had my tinfoil. I had on. I was watching this. I was like, this is.

[Matt]

I just.

[Heath]

I can't even follow what that. Yeah, they would drop refrigerators down this giant hole. They wouldn't even know where the bottom was. And it had to do with a seal.

[Zane]

I know. I feel like you have to like watch the video and I really didn't want to pull up the video because it's like, it's a long video.

[Matt]

Do more research and come back with us on that.

[Heath]

I honestly, I'm really interested now because I need to know.

[Zane]

I'm going to. I'll. I'll send it to you.

[Matt]

But you also thought that AI Gook was like real. The guy who had alien creature in his house. That you were like, this is cool.

[Zane]

You know what's crazy now, looking back how dumb that was. Like seeing how much AI is now.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

I cannot believe I believe that for a second. It's insane.

[Heath]

Look, it's getting bigger.

[Matt]

It's moving.

[Zane]

It's moving. And you know what? I could go back to that video now and the quality is probably so low. Like how, like how, how like fake it looks now looking back just how much our eyes have seen, like AI and how good it's gotten.

[Heath]

It's like going back to like old video games that you thought were so realistic.

[Zane]

Pixelated.

[Heath]

I know.

[Matt]

It's such a bummer. Star Fox though, they just remade it. Nintendo did, remember Star Fox 64.

[Zane]

No.

[Guest]

Yeah.

[Heath]

Okay.

[Matt]

They brought it back and it's the same. It's just like higher def, Higher graphics, all of it. Star Fox, Star Fox 64. Do you ever play Star Fox 64 on Nintendo 64?

[Heath]

Oh, yes.

[Zane]

Oh my God.

[Matt]

So it looks just like crisp and awesome. Like that's how it used to look like when we were kids. Now the characters look a little weird, but yeah, that's how that's how it was. Now the new one is like really good looking.

[Zane]

Wow.

[Matt]

Yeah. Yeah. So kind of cool that they're rebooting.

[Zane]

It's crazy. That's how it looked like to us as kids, the last.

[Heath]

Like right now we were really using our imagination.

[Matt]

Really?

[Heath]

Do a bear Duck Hunt real quick.

[Matt]

Yes.

[Zane]

What? Duck Hunt.

[Matt]

That was on like old Nintendo, right?

[Zane]

How.

[Heath]

How was that possible? I would point a gun at the bubble TV and it would know if I shot a duck.

[Matt]

Apparently I heard that Duck Hunt was like kind of not real. Like they were fucking with you. Like they didn't have the technology to do it, but they made it seem like you shooting it at the TV worked.

[Zane]

Wait, no.

[Matt]

I feel like I saw a tick tock about that.

[Heath]

How does, how did they do that?

[Matt]

So you're exactly right. The classic Nintendo game Duck Hunt was an illusion released for the NES in 1985. It was a clever hardware trick rather than actually tracking your bullets, meaning you were pointing a plastic toy at the tv, not firing real ammunition. So maybe.

[Zane]

Is that not real? Maybe, Maybe the gun. Maybe the gun was a remote. So every time you clicked it, it just shot around the duck.

[Matt]

Oh, yes.

[Heath]

Oh, Matt. It was a blackout trick. The exact moment you pulled the trigger, the game would turn the TV screen completely black for a fraction of a second. The white boxes immediately after the screen would flash white box boxes exactly where the ducks were flying. And a sensor inside the end of your gun detected the white light. If the sensor saw the light, the game registered a hit.

[Matt]

So. Yes. So it was this kind of illusion of a way they were able to pull it off. But you, technologically wise, were thinking like, oh, it's shooting it' registering where you're shooting at.

[Zane]

Do you think our parents knew that? Or they believe that too?

[Guest]

I. I mean, they probably believed it too. There's no way they understood, you know?

[Zane]

I don't know. What if they're like, hey, that really doesn't make any sense. Yeah, that's so. That's so. That's so crazy, Matt. Like how we believe that? And I, and I believed it right now. I was like, oh, my God. I remember you said, like, point it out to tv. How'd they do that?

[Matt]

You know, there's that hack with, like, the WWII, if you're we remote. Like, you know the Wii bar sensor? It was that little sensor you'd put up. Apparently there's like a hack where you light two candles and that can become the bar for it.

[Zane]

What?

[Matt]

Look up we candle hack. I'm pretty sure you put it, like, next to the. It creates some frequency between the candles. So, yes, if your Wii sensor bar is lost or broken, you can replace it with two lit candles because the sensor bar is actually just an infrared light source. Anything that emits infrared light can be used in its own place. So the.

[Zane]

Can you go to. Can you go to images? I just want to see a picture of somebody doing this.

[Matt]

Yeah, you put two candles up. Oh, wow.

[Zane]

They're tiny candles too.

[Matt]

Yeah, just two little tea candles.

[Zane]

I imagine just like a row, like.

[Matt]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Zane]

Bet you someone started a fire like that. Once y' all saw our girl Leah, finally they released the trailer for her new show.

[Matt]

Yes.

[Zane]

It's been saying it's like, bro, she was here maybe like, I think four months ago, and we were talking about this and we couldn't say anything. But guys, the show that Lee is on, it just got announced yesterday, and the trailer came out. It's called Million Dollar Nannies, which is so funny because I got so many dms. When I posted, I reshared the. The photo, the show poster, and everybody was like, Zane, I swear, I thought it was gonna be Love Island. I was like. I was ready to roll my eyes, but this is front and center.

[Matt]

Front and center.

[Zane]

Front and center on new show. I was like, you know, guys, like, we would. I would I have her come on. Talking about it if it was like, something like, small.

[Matt]

I didn't realize she was like, the head honcho of the whole thing. I knew that, like, she was saying, like, oh, she's like the main girl, like, thinking, oh, like, you're the most, like, popular one stems from her.

[Zane]

No, I, like, I would never tell you that she was. That if she wasn't, like, she's.

[Guest]

She.

[Zane]

She's like the head of the nanny company.

[Matt]

She's like the God of mother, which I.

[Zane]

Which I just found out. I'm pretty sure it's like a competition where there's gonna be some people that if there's a season two, they won't make it. They won't make it next year because they'll get kicked off by Leah, right?

[Matt]

Leah really? Like the Lisa Vanderpump of the million dollar name. Yeah. Hey, they need to bring y' all in for season two.

[Heath]

Oh, my gosh. With Tony, he.

[Zane]

Would you do it? It's kind of funny because, like, because all, like, the dramas with. I feel like with the nannies, you guys can just be like, the. The cool parents.

[Matt]

And Mariah just, like, has her way with just like, how dare you leave my Outside the r. Like, the only

[Zane]

nanny will do is Leah on Suit a Million Dollar Nannies.

[Matt]

She's, like, hitting up Leah. Like, this girl has to go. Like, it's just not working out.

[Zane]

Yeah. I, I, like, I. I honestly hope that season does incredible. Like, just for Leah. That'd be so fun. And. But even, you know, even if season one is, like, not the biggest hit, there's so many shows that, like, the second or the third season gets so big, and then it, like, like, it dominoes to, like, the other seasons.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

So I just hope something happens.

[Matt]

Of course. So, guys, please watch it, because we want to see this flourish.

[Zane]

Or maybe we could all watch the first episode together when it comes out on, like, on, like, unwind or something.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah. Oh, that'd be fun.

[Heath]

Yeah, that would be. I. I'm just so excited to see how it's done.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

And, like, because it's still, like, I'm still a little confused by the trailer, like, what exactly it's going to feel like. Like. But I'm just excited to, like, watch it.

[Zane]

Watch it. When I, When I saw it, it reminded me of Below Deck. I don't know if you've ever seen that show.

[Matt]

Yeah. About, like, people working on.

[Zane]

Yeah. So they work on the yacht. And the drama. There's so much drama with, like, during work, with all the clients and all that. And then they get off the boat for a few days and then they, like, go out, and then there's drama within the friends, like, within the staff. That's what it looks like to me is exactly how they're, like, setting up.

[Matt]

Yeah. Like, are the kids really in the show or is it kind of like an afterthought? We don't really, like, see the baby.

[Zane]

I mean, everybody got. Everybody got approved. Like, the parents are on camera, the kids are on camera.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah, you do see the kids. Okay.

[Zane]

And you know, when you. When you see their personalities, like, their reality TV star, like, families, like, they. They want to be on. They want to be on the big screen.

[Matt]

They need to. They need to bring in super nanny for Just one episode. Yeah.

[Zane]

Oh, my God.

[Matt]

That way. No.

[Zane]

Say when she's putting, like she's setting the nanny straight.

[Matt]

Right, Right. Yes.

[Zane]

Is this how you run. Is this how you run a nanny company?

[Matt]

Yes. Yes. I would love to see that. I wonder how old she is now. Joe Frost, bring her in for the million dollar Manny Nannies.

[Heath]

Do you remember Wife Swap?

[Zane]

Oh, terrible.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah, terrible.

[Zane]

They would like, do like different, like families that have different religions.

[Heath]

And you're like, they were just trying to start. That was a wild show.

[Zane]

Yeah. It did nothing. It did nothing but cause stress and chaos and negativity.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Every single episode.

[Heath]

It's so bad.

[Zane]

Like, I'm so surprised that they were convinced, like these fames were convinced to do it.

[Heath]

And then what happens? Your kids are like, I like that mom better. And you're just like.

[Matt]

And that's the one where in Jesus name I pray, get the hell out of my house.

[Zane]

That's not Wife Swap.

[Matt]

That is. Wasn't it? I mean, it was a mom going into like a different family and stuff.

[Zane]

That was. Why swap?

[Matt]

It's dark sided.

[Zane]

I thought that was a show based around them. Same thing.

[Matt]

It was. Yeah. Trading Spouses. Same.

[Zane]

Oh, wait, were there. Was that the same show and they just changed the name of it?

[Matt]

No, it was just spin offs of the same. Because there was also Trading Places too, where two couples would go into each other's house and redo a room. It was like a home renovation show.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Matt]

And then I bet the same people were like, okay, let's do Trading Spouses, which is like Trading Places. I bet it was.

[Zane]

I'm surprised. There were a lot of. Do that, like, work, like, take the other show's idea. It's the same idea.

[Matt]

Pretty, pretty much. Yeah.

[Zane]

Very interesting. And it was just a mom for this, for the. The dark. Dark.

[Matt]

I feel like it was you. It was like a m. Like a very conservative religious mom going into like probably a very like hippie, dippy kind of household. And they did like a switch.

[Zane]

I mean, do we want. I mean, I feel like we. We got to get TV like that back.

[Matt]

It's.

[Zane]

It's too. Damn.

[Matt]

Oh, God. You know this. People were filming her going, yes, gold. Gold. And apparently she's really cool now.

[Zane]

No.

[Matt]

Yeah, she's like super, like woke and chill and like. Yeah, okay.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Matt]

She's like always on like Instagram Live. Yeah. The Jesus name I pray, get the hell out of my house.

[Zane]

Wow.

[Matt]

And she rips up that check and then she's still. Not of God, it's not Christians. She is not Christian. God, she's not a Christian. She's tampering in dark side.

[Zane]

Where's her teeth?

[Matt]

Yes. And she died. Her daughter died. Entire house is dark sided.

[Zane]

She said her whole house is dark sided.

[Matt]

Gargoyles, psychics, everything's ungodly. Dark sided. Get the hell out. Out of my house. In Jesus name I pray.

[Zane]

Oh my God. Dark side and so good.

[Guest]

She kind of looked like she was a little possessed there.

[Heath]

I think she might have been a little.

[Matt]

I think she was just like I was unmedicated, like she was. I think she said I was in a very rough place in my life.

[Zane]

Like seeing that today in the back of your head you're just like, oh, they're probably like really acting like they're really. They're probably really like, like, like acting it up.

[Matt]

But for what? Incentive?

[Zane]

No, no, I'm saying now.

[Matt]

Oh yes, now everyone's hamming it up just to be a damn Jeff.

[Zane]

Like what then was so real. It was just like it really. Production was really evil.

[Heath]

Like I looked over at you re watching it and I was doing the same thing. Just like, just what is going on?

[Zane]

They look God and just imagine production just sitting on gold mine all the time. Back in the 2000s. Thousands.

[Guest]

Like the one where they would swap the. The boyfriends. Like the boyfriend would have to sit with the parents and watch his girlfriend like go on dates.

[Matt]

Meet your mom. I don't know on MTV where he

[Guest]

would do something like that.

[Matt]

Oh, wait, no, you're. There's another one. But I was thinking to meet my

[Zane]

mom where the girls came out of the car.

[Matt]

Yeah, it's like, well, well, Brian, meet my lovely daughter Anna. He would be like, damn, because she was so pretty. And then it would be like a very unattractive girl that he ends up with.

[Zane]

Ends up with. Yeah, I forget what that one was called. It's not me.

[Matt]

My mom.

[Zane]

Mom. Oh, it's meet my mom.

[Matt]

Meet my mom. And then there was. Yeah, there was next where like they would get off the bus and they'd be like, walk up to the girl and she'd just be like, next.

[Zane]

So good God, that logo.

[Matt]

Oh, next.

[Zane]

Oh my God. That's literally the font and the outline and colors I use for thumbnails. Yeah.

[Heath]

And it always, it always had the dumbest bullets.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

What is that?

[Matt]

Nugget loves Hannah Montana cries all the time.

[Zane]

Why doesn't a youtuber do a video like this for a video video? Like I could see a YouTuber bringing

[Matt]

this, what David Alvarez is always doing without popping the damn balloons.

[Zane]

And I have not seen anybody bring this back yet. Like, where they get off the bus. Screen grab. It was like three. No. Yeah. I haven't seen, like, when has somebody done this? Yeah, just bring it back on YouTube. I would watch it. It's so funny.

[Matt]

I remember Room Raiders, bro.

[Zane]

I always, like, I would. Dude, every time I'd watch it, I would get hives thinking, like, somebody were to ever do that to my room.

[Matt]

Remember, they would like bring out the black light and they would be just like, come everywhere.

[Zane]

Everywhere.

[Heath]

I remember thinking that it would just happen to random people. Like, that there was an off chance that, like, it, they might just come into your house.

[Zane]

I really thought it was random. It's crazy.

[Heath]

Yeah. Not knowing that it was like a whole thing you gotta agree to on TV to be doing it.

[Zane]

So. So those kids that were getting their rooms rated, did they know about it?

[Matt]

Yes, it was all staged. They had probably the dude who was. Had the nice, clean, decent bedroom. They had the dude who was like the slo.

[Zane]

Oh, wait. And you think the person that they chose was all stage aged?

[Matt]

Yeah, dude, it's reality tv.

[Zane]

Well, I mean, I felt like back then maybe it was like a more.

[Matt]

Who knows? Maybe it was more real. But I would.

[Zane]

You know what? I bet you if we like were to watch it now, we could probably see if they're acting or not.

[Matt]

Yeah. Because we were teenagers.

[Heath]

Chelsea Swenson's brother was on Room Raiders.

[Zane]

Oh, well, tell us, was it real?

[Matt]

We gotta ask.

[Heath]

We can ask.

[Matt]

But like also realizing how much of Cribs was like staged, like, like Lil Bow Wow's house. How he had like eight, nine cars, Ferraris and all that. All of them are rentals. Jojo, even like confess that, like. Yeah, that wasn't even my house. We just rented that for the day.

[Zane]

Jesus.

[Guest]

Oh, that breaks my heart.

[Matt]

Yeah. Cribs was like very over exaggerated.

[Zane]

I, I, I understand if you like, you know, build or like put something crazy in your house for the, for like the effect. But like renting a house, that's just like, that's.

[Matt]

Yeah, that's so sleazy.

[Zane]

Yeah, that's insane.

[Matt]

But we didn't have like proper Internet forms really, like call them out on it back then. It was just like.

[Heath]

Yeah, you couldn't comment. Comment below.

[Zane]

Yeah, that is wild.

[Matt]

Should we do that game where we say a phrase in like four different ways? Yes.

[Zane]

Let's do the shave your bush one.

[Matt]

Okay. You shaved your bush.

[Zane]

Yeah. So, Heath, there's a trend where you have to say, like, a certain line, and you got to say in four different ways. Surprised, supportive, disappointed.

[Heath]

Oh, yeah. Okay.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Guest]

Flirty.

[Zane]

All right, everybody do supportive for. Oh, wait, what's the line again?

[Matt]

You shaved your bush. Okay, so support. Supportive.

[Zane]

You shaved your bush very good. Okay, you shaved your bush.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Matt]

You're good.

[Heath]

You shaved your bush.

[Guest]

Nice.

[Matt]

Nice.

[Guest]

That was good. Okay, disappointed.

[Matt]

You shaved your bush.

[Zane]

You shaved your bush.

[Guest]

Oh, damn, I felt that one.

[Heath]

You shaved your bush Good.

[Zane]

Like a question.

[Guest]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Okay, sarcastic. Now let's. And let's switch up the rotation. Now you started.

[Zane]

You shaved your bush.

[Matt]

That was good.

[Heath]

You shaved your bush.

[Zane]

Oh, I said it in the wrong. Sarcastic. I said it in a different way.

[Matt]

You shaved your bush

[Zane]

like a. Oh, like.

[Matt]

You shaved your bush.

[Zane]

Yeah, like. Oh, now the day is just, you know, automatically better because he shaved your bush. I'm still pissing you.

[Matt]

Yes. Yes. That's what I was going for.

[Zane]

Cool.

[Matt]

Okay, now, flirty.

[Heath]

You want to take flirty. Shaved your bush.

[Matt]

Oh, damn. I was kind of going for that. That's good. You shaved your bush.

[Heath]

That one just felt real.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Shaved your bush.

[Matt]

Very good. All right. All of us. Pretty good.

[Guest]

The flirty line always makes me feel like I'm getting a peek into somebody's life that I don't want to see.

[Zane]

Yeah, it's very. It's very vulnerable, right? Yeah, you're really letting yourself out there.

[Matt]

There's another one that I saw or Pete Holmes does on his podcast. It's called the World's smallest Smile. This is a little visual for the people who are listening. So what you're going to do is you're going to put your head down, and then you're gonna come up and you're gonna give the smallest smile you can.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

So I'll do it first. Ready?

[Zane]

I'm gonna try, like, I. I'm not gonna even really move my lip.

[Matt]

We'll see. We'll see. Nice.

[Guest]

Oh, that was good.

[Matt]

Nice little smolder.

[Zane]

Yeah. Know.

[Matt]

Oh, very good.

[Zane]

That's good.

[Matt]

Very good.

[Guest]

Very talented.

[Zane]

Guys, We're. We're kind of crushing at this episode.

[Heath]

There's. There's some, like, acting challenges I've seen people do on Tik Tok. Like, the way. The difference it makes where if you were to, like, look with your eyes first and then turn your head versus, like, turning your head with your eyes, like, how. How much that reads and, like, how different it can be.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Michael Kane has, like, a specific approach to It. And he's like, wherever the camera is, you need to be looking in that eye to the person you're talking to. Because if you're like, there's like, a whole psychology behind it. And also, like, not blinking too. It's like, a very important thing, though. You need to blink in certain moments. But, yeah, maintaining eye contact is, like, really good acting. Also, you don't really have to be looking at a person all the time while you're acting. Like, like, even though we're on a podcast, we're looking at each other. But sometimes in real life, when we're about just interacting, we're not always making direct eye contact with one another.

[Zane]

But, like, I. I. Sometimes I don't like looking directly in the eye because, like, I'll start focusing on one of the eyes. Like, instead of looking at both, like, I'll just look at your right eye and I'm just. And then it, like, stresses me out. Then I have to just like.

[Matt]

Well, of course you have to look at one eye.

[Heath]

Like, but then you become aware, like,

[Zane]

I know this staring. You just, like, start overthinking it and you're like a. He knows I'm looking at only one eye. I need to. To.

[Matt]

Yes.

[Guest]

I also saw a tip from an acting coach on TikTok or something, and they were like, a common mistake. Now, Grant, to take this with a grain of salt, I'm not an actor, but they were, like, a common mistake that young actors make is that when they're in, like, an emotional scene, they'll do this, like, fake stutter, you know,

[Matt]

they'll be like, but.

[Guest]

But I don't know, you know.

[Zane]

Oh, my God. Every time I need to act in a certain scene, I, like, do that stutter. If I'm like.

[Matt]

Like, it's like filler nervous. Yeah.

[Zane]

Just. Yeah, just because I'm a bad actor and.

[Guest]

But I, like, I heard that, and I see it in everything now.

[Matt]

Uhhuh. Just that Netflix type acting. What do you mean?

[Guest]

Yeah, yeah, I see it in, like, even the most prominent shows. I see it. And I'm just like, they're doing the My Carl's Jr.

[Zane]

Ad. That's literally, as soon as you said that, I was like, oh, my. Oh, I'm. I'm going to archive it now.

[Guest]

I got to delete everything thing.

[Zane]
