Transcript

[Matt]

Lights are going up. Snow is falling down. There's a feeling of goodwill around town. It could only mean one thing. McRib is here. People throwing parties, ugly sweaters everywhere. Stockings hung up by the chimney. With care. It could only mean one thing. McRib is here. Participate in McDonald's for a limited time.

[Heath]

Every idea starts with a problem. Warby Parker's was simple. Glasses are too expensive. So they set out to change that. By designing glasses in house and selling directly to customers, they're able to offer prescription eyewear that's expertly crafted and unexpectedly affordable. Warby Parker glasses are made from premium materials like impact resistant polycarbonate and custom acetate. And they start at just $95, including prescription lenses.

[Matt]

Get glasses made from the good stuff.

[Heath]

Stop by a Warby Parker store near you.

[Zane]

Wow.

[Matt]

I'm not having any more.

[Zane]

Why not?

[Matt]

I just don't want that caffeine in me too long. Trying to go to bed.

[Zane]

Do you feel. Do you feel caffeinated?

[Matt]

No, just sometimes if I have caffeine, like, a little late in the day, I can feel it in my brain trying to go to bed.

[Zane]

That's probably why I have such a tough time at night.

[Matt]

You think so? Oh, go into bed. You think?

[Zane]

I feel. I thought caffeine didn't work, but I really think it works.

[Matt]

I know how it feels in my brain trying to sleep. My brain is just like a monkey with symbols. And it's like.

[Zane]

I feel like it's like that every night, though, without caffeine. Just like a monkey with symbols. But I usually try. I'll do, like, a little THC gummy.

[Matt]

Yes, that helps. That helps.

[Zane]

But sometimes I don't like taking because it makes me feel, like, foggy the next day.

[Matt]

Like, I know a little bit I.

[Zane]

Need something that puts me out and it doesn't give me the fog the next day.

[Mariah]

You know what my mom would suggest?

[Zane]

Honey in the ear. Pray, pray.

[Mariah]

I can't sleep. Pray, pray. I mean, it works.

[Matt]

I usually just try to count down from 100, and then that kind of gets me counting sheep. Yeah, but just counting down from 100. Rarely do I ever make it down to 10.

[Zane]

Really?

[Matt]

Like, right.

[Mariah]

I couldn't get past the 70s.

[Matt]

I start getting really bored, and I'm like, why?

[Zane]

Because you'd fall asleep or you just.

[Mariah]

My brain would just think of other things. Like, I'd be like, 99. What's that one song that's like 99?

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Mariah]

Every number would remind me of something. 98 so and so was born in 98.

[Unknown]

98 degrees.

[Matt]

They were such a good band.

[Zane]

Yeah, Nick, I would think about 100 ideas.

[Matt]

All right.

[Zane]

99.

[Unknown]

Intro.

[Matt]

Intro. It's coffee talk, baby.

[Unknown]

Let's go.

[Matt]

Oh, well.

[Zane]

Come back insane and Heath Unfiltered. I'm your host, Zane.

[Unknown]

I'm Heath.

[Matt]

I'm Matt.

[Mariah]

I'm Mariah.

[Unknown]

First of all, happy season six. This is the first episode of season six.

[Zane]

And we've been planning this episode all week, all year.

[Unknown]

Thanks for sticking with us, guys. I honestly can't believe we're already at season six. It's insane.

[Matt]

250 some episodes first.

[Mariah]

It's crazy episode.

[Unknown]

It's crazy how time flies.

[Matt]

It truly does, man.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

And thank you to every single person who's been listen, especially the day one people. You are OG to stick with something for 250 episodes.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Comment down below if you've seen every single episode. I'm so curious.

[Matt]

That's like more episodes than Lost. Is that more episodes than Seinfeld? Friends?

[Zane]

No, Seinfeld. I think Seinfeld has no more than Seinfeld180.

[Matt]

We probably don't have as many as, like, Days of our Lives, General Hospital.

[Zane]

Let's not compare ourselves to iconic shows.

[Matt]

We are iconic in our own place.

[Zane]

Let's compare this to, I don't know.

[Unknown]

Like Ricky Smiley in the morning.

[Zane]

Yeah. How many Ricky Smiley in the morning.

[Matt]

Or that other does it every morning.

[Unknown]

How many years, though?

[Matt]

Many decades, probably.

[Unknown]

So he's got his beat.

[Matt]

Yeah, I think so.

[Zane]

Or Joe Rogan. I'm sure he only has like 150.

[Matt]

He's in the thousands. Thousands.

[Zane]

Three episodes a week is absolutely diabolical. I just don't understand.

[Matt]

I would love to do it.

[Unknown]

21. 95 episodes.

[Matt]

Oh. But hey, we'll get there. We'll get there.

[Zane]

We're gonna get there so soon.

[Matt]

How was this weekend?

[Unknown]

Pretty good. What did we do? We went to the vintage flea market. They do it once a month by my house and get anything good. I got a dupars ashtray.

[Matt]

Whoa.

[Unknown]

70S.

[Zane]

Oh, it was in the vintage store.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Just everybody like. So what they do is everybody has their own booth. So they come once a month, set up like a booth table thing and just have random things to offer. So it was just sitting on one of the tables that the. The guy was selling stuff at, and.

[Mariah]

It was like a pile of ashtrays.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Mariah]

And we saw it and it was a little pricey, but, like, no hesitation. We were like, you have to have this.

[Unknown]

It's like Symbolism for you smoking cigarettes.

[Mariah]

Into pars from the 70s is crazy.

[Zane]

If you guys don't know what Dupars is. Dupars used to be the diner that we would all go to all the time. We? Heath and I shot a lot of drunk.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah, right.

[Zane]

Dogs in there.

[Matt]

Now it's a Sephora.

[Zane]

Now it's a Sephora. I. I will never get over that H. Devastating.

[Matt]

But there's still one right down there in the Grove.

[Zane]

Yeah, but that's not it.

[Unknown]

Grove is still open. They closed Pasadena, though, too.

[Matt]

Oh, boy.

[Zane]

They close the Pasadena.

[Matt]

Why?

[Zane]

It's great food.

[Unknown]

I don't get it. I really don't know. And it's not like it was like an absurdly priced diner that I understand.

[Zane]

And it was open 24 7.

[Unknown]

You know what I mean?

[Zane]

Were they open too long every day.

[Matt]

Like Trader Joe's in that whole parking lot. Made it really complicated for that one area or the one on Ventura.

[Unknown]

Yeah, yeah, because there's more parking.

[Matt]

All those different. There's that crave right there that. I bet that was some hot piece of real estate. And I bet the Dupar family was like, sell it.

[Unknown]

I know if a. If a parking lot was full because it was, like, packed from, like, a grocery store and, like, other big spots. Like, if I knew it would be hard to find parking, I'd be like, I don't need it.

[Matt]

Yeah, that's.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Like, I wouldn't go to that shopping center to just to have, like, a breakfast.

[Matt]

I miss me a parking lot. I get excited about parking lot. You don't have them? Rarely. There are some here and there, but it's always a shopping center.

[Unknown]

I love strip malls so much.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Can park anywhere.

[Matt]

Oh, just a big old parking lot, man.

[Unknown]

Give me. Give me a Tilly's next to a five Below. Next to, like, a.

[Mariah]

A Pet Smart and an Ulta together.

[Unknown]

Party City.

[Matt]

A tj. You got a TJ Maxx? Maybe a Michaels. A bit of a Best Buy just to go walk around and look.

[Mariah]

Are they all the same? Same.

[Zane]

But you know what I hate more than no parking? Parking garages. I hate parking. Whenever I drive by and I'm like, oh, that's where I gotta go. Parking garage. Nope, I'm good.

[Matt]

And they give me, like, a damn math problem figuring out. It's like, first hour's free, but every 30 minutes, it's like 50 bucks. Like, you're like, what? Like, I'm stressed out and I got to get it validated. And then you check it out and it Goes well where?

[Unknown]

Or you forget to do the validation. You get in your car, you're like, I'm not getting back out to go back to the restaurant to walk in and be like, can you stamp this?

[Matt]

Oh. And it's stressful when that. And that machine ain't working and there's a whole line of cars behind you and you're clicking help. And you're like, is there anyone nearby?

[Zane]

50% of the time, why is it always broken? That's why we had to run through it that one time. Remember we committed a crime. That was crazy. That was honestly one of the funniest story.

[Mariah]

I tell that story a lot. That was probably the baddest thing I've ever done.

[Zane]

I need to tell that story more often because I do. Forget it. Such a funny moment.

[Mariah]

What also baffles me was when you finally have a regular parking lot and they freaking throw the arm down and you're like, on the same grounds.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Mariah]

You're not changing levels. I'm not at a mall. You're just trying to get to the grocery store and you gotta pay for parking.

[Unknown]

Wait, wait.

[Zane]

Oh, you're talking about like same level parking at a, at a store.

[Mariah]

A parking. Why am I pulling a ticket?

[Zane]

Oh, yeah, you're.

[Mariah]

You're still on the street.

[Matt]

Why?

[Mariah]

Like it. Does that make sense?

[Zane]

That whole air one party lot makes no sense to me. Just let people park. It's.

[Mariah]

I swear, people just put a pop up, like pay thing here. Like, even by our old house we have just like little restaurants, grocery stores, like craft stores. And it's just a regular parking lot. But there's this little booth and this guy comes out once in a while, like 10 bucks.

[Zane]

Oh, he's like, sometimes too. It's like, are you supposed to be here charging people?

[Matt]

I need to see some qualifications.

[Unknown]

Let me see the credentials.

[Zane]

Next time I'm going to do that just to fuck it. Let me see all your fucking credential. How do we not. How do we know that you're not fucking just stealing people? Let me just throw on a culture and just.

[Mariah]

Yeah, like, paying for parking is an insane concept.

[Unknown]

It is everywhere.

[Mariah]

You're already in your car, on the ground, on the earth. I don't understand what I'm paying to stop for a little bit. I don't get it.

[Zane]

In Florida, I love like going to a mall. You knew you're going to be parked inside and out. Grab something out in. In five minutes. So easy. So easy.

[Mariah]

Going home is such like a culture shock because you don't have to pay for anything. Anything.

[Unknown]

Street parking's free.

[Mariah]

Everything's free.

[Zane]

It's like that in Texas too, right? Like it's just.

[Matt]

Oh yeah, yeah, right. You can park anywhere. I do hate a parking garage. That's almost like a fucking optical illusion where you can't find the level. And you're like, I know I parked on the grove, but you go on and you're like, I could see my car, but I can't even get to. Let me get through this fucking wire like.

[Mariah]

And you can hear it the whole time. Those need to be studied. Make a Netflix documentary on those. Damn parking lot.

[Zane]

It's a fun house.

[Mariah]

It's too much. Cuz you're. Cuz you're watching it the whole time.

[Zane]

The whole time.

[Mariah]

And then there's a wall that you pass and it's go Van.

[Matt]

The person who designed that is architectural school M. Look at this.

[Heath]

Oh this.

[Unknown]

This gonna go up.

[Matt]

You can go down. It's like a Mc Escher painting. It's just like what the.

[Mariah]

Like first 30 minutes is free, but then you're like looking for your Damn.

[Zane]

Car for 20 minutes.

[Unknown]

Uhuh.

[Matt]

Yeah. And then they go. It's going to take them a while to look. You know, the more they're looking, the more money we make it crazy. Am I right guys?

[Mariah]

What the hell is that about?

[Unknown]

Yeah, those parking garages make so much money.

[Matt]

Oh yeah. Get the parking. We don't need to. No ac. You don't got to worry about ac.

[Unknown]

Nothing.

[Matt]

Hardly any electricity.

[Zane]

It is crazy.

[Matt]

You just make bank for people to park.

[Zane]

Just don't be in there when our earthquake happens. That's all. That's all. That's all you got to do.

[Matt]

Oh man.

[Zane]

And by the way, I want to go back to the Eran parking. The in Arowan is so goddamn expensive. It should be a part of the price you're paying when you buy something from ERA that it's paying for your park.

[Matt]

But they're like, they can afford it. What is it to them?

[Mariah]

We know our demographic.

[Matt]

They could already pay.

[Mariah]

Put the barricade down.

[Zane]

You bought $40. Like Erewhon M&M's. You go to your car and you're paying $15 to leave.

[Matt]

What the fuck?

[Unknown]

Erewhon is the craziest thing to me. And it's so strange how successful it is. You like you. First of all, you started a grocery chain in the middle of like already all the existing grocery chains.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And you did it at a price point above what groceries normally Cost groceries are already so expensive. And they were. Their thought process was, let's make it even more.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Because people will do it, and it's insane to me.

[Zane]

And we're going to put it in places where, like, people that have money live and we want to separate them. That's how they do it. Like, that's when they, like, make these stores or make these high end places. They're trying to separate people, but it works, which is crazy.

[Mariah]

The celebrity smoothies in, they know what they're doing.

[Unknown]

What a crazy concept.

[Zane]

Like, why does it work? It's so stupid.

[Matt]

People are hungry for identity and they want it.

[Unknown]

They want to be seen.

[Zane]

I feel nothing walking in that. God. But you know what I feel? I feel like turn sideways to go to the aisle.

[Matt]

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

[Mariah]

This weekend after thrifting, Heath and I were like, should we go into Air1? Like, we were feeling.

[Unknown]

There was one right next to the. We were at, like, a thrift store. The consignment shop.

[Mariah]

Zane. We walked in. We were, like, smiling. We're both looking. We start looking at each other and we both have a panic attack.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Mariah]

We're like, all right, that's a wrap.

[Unknown]

It was so bad.

[Mariah]

We didn't get one thing.

[Matt]

Because you don't recognize any of the products.

[Zane]

You're like.

[Matt]

You'Re picking up something. Like, I think this looks good, but what is this?

[Zane]

Let me see the tusitos. God damn it. I want Eminem.

[Mariah]

It looks like you're on a set because all the labels are facing you and you're like, okay, all right, all right.

[Zane]

Don't get me started on when you're in, like, the jar section.

[Unknown]

Yes.

[Mariah]

I don't think we got that far. I can't even. I'm like, putting on my glasses.

[Unknown]

The music was bumping, too.

[Matt]

It was a club.

[Unknown]

It was hopping in that spot.

[Mariah]

The line for the hot bar and every. It's like they're paying these people to show up and stand there and look good. Everyone's in activewear, Matching sweats.

[Zane]

They look good.

[Mariah]

Sports bra, aloe. Like, everybody is in active. It's like I felt out of shape.

[Zane]

And there's a ton of people working in there too. I feel like it's just your first.

[Matt]

Time and you have questions. What they've, like, cooked. They're like, they all stop and, like, look at you. Like, oh, it's this first.

[Zane]

Wait, wait.

[Matt]

When they ask one question, does this look good? But does this have this said? Like, the cookers are like this for. It's Cuz they're like formal chefs. Like, they've whipped this up, and you're like, is this. Does this have goat cheese in it? And they're like.

[Mariah]

It's like the demographic woke up and just knew how to operate Air1. Like, they're walking in so confident.

[Zane]

But the food in there is good, though. They do.

[Unknown]

The food is very good.

[Zane]

Good job.

[Unknown]

It is.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

But, man, you are paying a pretty penny for that food.

[Unknown]

A little side of chicken tenders, 75 bucks. Okay.

[Mariah]

Milk, $19.99 a gallon of milk.

[Unknown]

I heard those smoothies are 20 bucks.

[Zane]

Not good for you.

[Unknown]

Really?

[Zane]

Yeah, like the.

[Mariah]

Like, those, like, they're putting freaking, like, bumblebees in it.

[Unknown]

Ground up bumblebees.

[Matt]

It's good for you. Get some pollen in.

[Mariah]

It's crazy. What's in there. It's like for your seafood.

[Zane]

Take it out. You put your spoon in, you put. It's a whole honeycomb just coming out the bubble. It's like bumblebee cereal.

[Mariah]

Concrete and dirt.

[Zane]

Yeah, it's good for you. Good for you, though. Yeah, right?

[Matt]

Do they run the smoothies by, like, the celebs who have them? Like, are they like. I think they're on a zoom call. They're just like, we're thinking we're going to add this and this. What do we think? And they're like, yeah, sure. Or do they have just, like, a bunch of stuff they're whipping up?

[Zane]

Like, I want to see, like, hey, I want to see a paparazzi shot of, like, Haley be grabbing a smoothie. She does, like, a campaign, right? And she, like, goes back into the.

[Matt]

Car, she's just like, yeah, it just chunks it.

[Unknown]

No, I saw, I saw. She has, like.

[Zane]

I think we get.

[Matt]

Let's.

[Zane]

Let's talk to them.

[Matt]

Have there been any guys yet? I feel like it's been mostly females. Like, is there a Bryce hall.

[Zane]

Protein pump?

[Matt]

A Logan Paul?

[Mariah]

It's like really orange.

[Unknown]

Like, weirdly orange.

[Zane]

I'm just waiting to see prime in Erewhon and then.

[Unknown]

Sure, I know.

[Zane]

And then I prime.

[Mariah]

Soft serve.

[Zane]

Yeah. Oh, it's not a bad idea.

[Unknown]

Sounds good.

[Matt]

Soft serve is when. Okay. Soft serve.

[Zane]

Yeah, it's from the machine. Use the swirls.

[Matt]

Are you good? If you go up to a soft serve, are you nailing it? Are you like.

[Unknown]

Yes.

[Zane]

Oh, I'm nailing it. Oh, I'm good. I'm a fatty. Yeah, no, that's. I know what I'm doing.

[Unknown]

You gotta get.

[Matt]

You know how to do that really well. You're. You look at people in line going, they think you work there.

[Zane]

I'm really. No, I'm good with that stuff. Like, anything. Dessert. Like, I can make a cake. I can make it look pretty.

[Matt]

I just got to go like enough in and then I go. And then I just munch on the rest.

[Zane]

But I want to see like a. Like a gourmet Like a blizzard. What's that. What's that place called?

[Matt]

Dairy Queen.

[Zane]

Dairy Queen. Bring that shit back. But, like, make it better. You know what I mean?

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

So, like. Like, like, Van Lewins is a really good ice cream shop.

[Zane]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Matt]

I just had Van New York.

[Zane]

It's so good.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Ice cream.

[Unknown]

But, like, I want the fun aspect of being like, I'll do KitKat Bits.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Chocolate Spring.

[Zane]

Bring that back.

[Mariah]

Cold stone.

[Unknown]

The Chipotle.

[Zane]

I think Colton is like, what. I would be the most gourmet.

[Mariah]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Style to still have that Salt and straw.

[Matt]

Last night had goat. Their flavors are too much goat cheese. Habanero. Something else in it. And I was like. I was like, okay. I'm like, who is getting Van lemons?

[Zane]

Once did like, a fries and shake. Tasted a mess.

[Unknown]

Yeah. I'll do the miso black cod, soft serve.

[Matt]

The hint of cuttlefish.

[Zane]

It is crazy. People are buying that. People are like, I'll have the. The olives and cheese ice cream. Like, what? Like, what's in there? Like, taste buds. That's like, oh, what am I feeling?

[Matt]

I'm just having a. I don't know. That's.

[Zane]

You know what that is? Like, you take an ambient, and that's some. That you eat after popping an ambient salt sandwich.

[Matt]

All of that. Yeah.

[Unknown]

It's just crazy that I would never choose, like, an obscure flavor like that over a chocolate.

[Matt]

You just finished having dinner. Something that tastes just like the dinner I ate.

[Zane]

I could see Mariah eating that, though. Like an olive.

[Mariah]

That's why I'm silent.

[Zane]

Like a charcuterie. Like, oh, forget it.

[Mariah]

I've chosen olive oil. I've chosen rosemary, basil.

[Zane]

For what?

[Unknown]

Ice cream flavors.

[Matt]

I kind of get behind a basil. I don't know. I could. I think olive oil.

[Mariah]

It's really refreshing.

[Matt]

I would eat it for free if someone was like. But I don't like doing sample. I get sample anxiety because there's a line, and I think there's like. And there's a line. You cross two samples. Most two samples, and you got to make a decision.

[Zane]

That's what I love.

[Matt]

The green one. What's the green one? Piss off, Matt.

[Zane]

That's what I like about you. I like that you are so quick when you know there's a line. You're very good at that. Very. Just even with me, when we're at a restaurant and I take a second longer than I should eat, Matt just immediately gives me the eye, and I'm.

[Matt]

Like, the dish is made. Somebody worked their ass off to figure out the dish. If there's. If there's an allergy, remove it. But like.

[Unknown]

Right, right, right.

[Matt]

You're like, what's.

[Mariah]

Yeah, Zone has a question.

[Matt]

But what's it like?

[Mariah]

How many ounces is the salad? They're like, no, no.

[Zane]

Okay. This was when I was doing the transformation. I always wanted 6 to 8 ounces, I don't think.

[Mariah]

Yeah, but then don't go to a restaurant.

[Matt]

Bring your. Bring your food scale then. And just.

[Zane]

And I did.

[Mariah]

I saw this one girl, she was maybe like 16 at the bagel shop and she was with her friends and I felt so bad because she was clearly. It was clearly her first time probably ordering. Like. I don't know. Yeah. Like it seemed like ever. It seemed like her mom gave her money. She went up to the counter. She was all nervous. She was like rehearsing what she wanted. And she went up and she goes, can I do the locks Bagel sandwich? Is it possible to do no locks? And instead of the cream cheese avocado. And the guy was like, oh, so it's. I felt bad cuz her friends were like heckling her, but not to her face. They were kind of whispering it and I was like, it's okay, it's okay.

[Unknown]

But like that, like that. That is something you would let me do. The locks bagel. No locks. Sub the cream cheese or like the hot.

[Zane]

Like the. The Holland.

[Unknown]

Like egg Hollandaise.

[Zane]

Yeah, Hollandaise sauce. Lose the hollandaise sauce. And they're like, why are you getting that?

[Unknown]

Then I see you want an English egg then.

[Zane]

But I don't make it too difficult. I usually just ask to remove things.

[Unknown]

Yeah, that was. That's a crazy.

[Matt]

How do you poach an egg?

[Unknown]

Water.

[Zane]

I think it's the hardest way to make it great.

[Unknown]

You crack the egg into the water.

[Matt]

But do you have like a little catcher to like? You make sure it has a bit of shape because it just.

[Mariah]

So you start. That's what I do. I start stirring the water like a whirlpool.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Mariah]

When you crack it, it starts going with the motions and then it balls up.

[Unknown]

It stays together pretty well.

[Matt]

Fascinating.

[Zane]

I'm having anxiety. Can I save myself real quick? What I do tip well. You do. That's an. I needed to. I needed to save myself something for.

[Unknown]

Like the restaurant industry.

[Zane]

You needed to save any waiters listening? Any waitresses, any hostesses?

[Mariah]

We always. Zane, we always talk about tipping. We're good.

[Zane]

Oh, spooky season. That's true. What is it? October?

[Matt]

It's basically about. October is happening, man. Are you going to any haunted houses?

[Zane]

No, No, I. I've been like less and less inclined to do like holiday stuff every year.

[Matt]

Yeah, I don't know why.

[Zane]

Because it doesn't feel like spooky season.

[Matt]

You should put a little. Get some pumpkins out. Maybe that's why scary movies. But yeah, I, I wish I could go do like haunted houses. But out here, just like Hollywood, the.

[Zane]

Halloween horror nights, that's.

[Matt]

It's such a hassle to do that. It's a huge commitment. But I just was there.

[Mariah]

Pay for parking.

[Matt]

Yeah, no, I just. We're just going back. It's too much of an operation.

[Zane]

But you know what I do miss, like driving around the neighborhoods and seeing like everybody out trick or treating. Like, I, I just don't see that.

[Mariah]

That's why we love to look away because it really got us in the spirit.

[Zane]

Yeah, every.

[Unknown]

They go all out.

[Mariah]

It's like being at Universal. There's. You can't even drive on the streets. They might as well block them off because there's so many people. Everybody's coming from different areas just to like trick or treat there.

[Unknown]

We should go back this year for. For Halloween.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah.

[Mariah]

It's just so Fun to get in the spirit.

[Zane]

Yeah. It's because, like, I feel like even just in this area, you will never see anybody walking around trick or treating, even on Halloween night.

[Unknown]

Yeah. It's so sad.

[Zane]

I think just. It's just dangerous. Like, I could see that's why they.

[Matt]

Do trunk or treat, like at churches. Everyone, you know, part of the community.

[Unknown]

You know what that is?

[Zane]

No, no, I've actually never heard.

[Unknown]

So instead of like doing your house, you decorate. You decorate your car as like a Halloween theme.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And you have all your candy in the trunk and you all pull into a parking lot and the kids just go from car to car.

[Zane]

Oh, easy peasy.

[Matt]

The parents are like, good, we can go. I know, but there's a certain age though. If I was like seven. Yeah.

[Unknown]

For like little kids.

[Matt]

This is not. Dude, I want to go house to house.

[Zane]

That's cute though. I like that.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Still give out candy. Like, I remember when I worked at the mall, our store, we'd have trick or treaters that would come through.

[Zane]

Yes, yes, I remember that.

[Unknown]

I remember having a bucket and we'd give out candy at the front of Brookstone.

[Matt]

A bit of ac.

[Zane]

Because you would do. Because that's during the day. Because normally.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

You would have like a little. The cute, like little tiny little babies, like in like sunflower outfits.

[Matt]

I like.

[Zane]

You see, I like that. Safe. Yeah, that's safe. Like me, I just. I couldn't trust like my like just candies being put in my kids bags.

[Matt]

I know a lot of times parents will be like, you keep the. You take the candy and then you give them.

[Zane]

It's like kind of like the. Yeah, let them have fun. That's pretty much what they do.

[Unknown]

We should do that this year. We should put like thumbtacks and like snickers just.

[Zane]

And kind of put air tags in each one and see where it goes and then experiment.

[Unknown]

I hear a lot about these like needles and thumbtacks and candy and stuff. Never seen it.

[Matt]

No, I know.

[Zane]

But I think there's been a few situations. But it like went by that way.

[Unknown]

We can have a new one. You know, it's such a crazy thing.

[Zane]

That like an adult is like, I'm gonna ruin somebody.

[Unknown]

Had that thought.

[Zane]

Yeah. It's really.

[Matt]

It's.

[Unknown]

That's so.

[Zane]

Even if it happen once and that one story went everywhere, like it just catches. Happened. That's cra. That's just nuts.

[Matt]

What is your favorite Halloween candy, though? It's fun on Halloween because you get a little.

[Zane]

Are you going to Let me answer it.

[Matt]

Oh, I was just had a little Kit Kat.

[Unknown]

A Kit Kat specific to Halloween. My favorite Halloween candy to get is Milky Way Midnights. But I would never buy a Milky Way midnight. I would never choose them. But on Halloween specifically, I pick those out first. And I'm like, this is the one.

[Matt]

That's what. That's the beauty of Halloween is you get exposed to candies you don't normally get to try, but you suddenly you're like, you know what? This kind of hits for me and Almond Joy. You'll never see me buying a fucking Almond Joy on Halloween. Only on Halloween. Give me that coconut.

[Zane]

You know, that's a great way to. If you like starting a candy business, like, I think the best time to.

[Unknown]

Release it is Halloween.

[Zane]

Halloween night. You give it to everybody coming to your house and you don't even tell them it's your brand. Just go, hey, here you go.

[Matt]

But then that's what the parents are like, I don't know about this. I don't recognize this.

[Unknown]

What is a moomoo bar? Like what? Another favorite is a $100,000 war. Only on Halloween, though, is it.

[Matt]

Wait, is it 100 grand or 100?

[Unknown]

Yeah, 100 grand.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Heath, you like nasty stuff.

[Matt]

You like old man?

[Unknown]

Dude, it's literally like. It's got like rice crispy. Oh, my God. Sucking your teeth so much.

[Matt]

Those kind of slap. I do. I like a six lit. I love a six lit. Yeah, cuz you bite that. Yeah. One and then we got more to go.

[Zane]

We come over there on right now.

[Unknown]

I love those also.

[Matt]

I wish. Nerds. Gummy clusters. Can we get those in a tiny little pack?

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Oh, kids there.

[Zane]

It's too much.

[Matt]

It's too much.

[Zane]

It's way too much in the pack. I know. Mariah thinks it's a perfect amount. She'll eat the whole bag.

[Matt]

Have you had the spooky nerds gummy cluster?

[Mariah]

The orange bag.

[Matt]

Wait, they're a little bit more great. Grape. A little grape. Oh, okay. And it's that good kind of, you know, the. You know, the purple nerds.

[Zane]

Is the nerd rope the same thing as the clusters? Yeah, it's just rope form. Okay. Okay.

[Matt]

I hate the nerds rope because I've.

[Zane]

Never had the nerd rope. I don't know what that.

[Matt]

Oh, give me some nerds clusters at the airport. I am set. But once you pop them, you can't stop.

[Mariah]

Is this the probably the newest candy.

[Zane]

That'S been out Nerds clusters?

[Matt]

Yeah, I think it's one that's here to stay. Yeah, it's definitely one that's at every airport. Like, if it's on the airport wall, it's yours. It's.

[Zane]

And you know what it reminds me of, which I think, like, I find fascinating. And it like brings me back to. It reminds me. The willow Willy Wonka candies in the movie. Remember when it was coming out the gobs? Yes. Like, every time I pull it, it just reminds me of Willy Wonka. And I think that's like. I think it's really cool.

[Unknown]

Good looking candy.

[Zane]

Yes, it's a beautiful candy. Like, it's such a.

[Matt]

But one Willy Wonka candy. They never did. That was in the. The video is the one where it's like eight meals in one. Like that one course meal. No, the. The gobstopper that is in the movie. But the one that Violet eats where they're like, Violet, you're. She's like roast beef and mashed potato.

[Zane]

It's impossible.

[Matt]

I mean. Yeah.

[Zane]

I mean, you can get those.

[Unknown]

Yeah. Why didn't they also make the one. The. The fizzy lifting drink where you.

[Zane]

They should make you soul.

[Matt]

Fizzy lifting drinks. You bumped into the ceiling when now has to be washed and sterilized so you get nothing.

[Zane]

You said it in the same cadence. Very good. You was awesome.

[Matt]

Fizzy lifting drink.

[Zane]

They should make like a horror movie of that movie.

[Matt]

Just like, they just kind of was scary. The Tim Burton one. I don't know.

[Zane]

Just like they did with Winnie the Pooh. Did you see the new horror movie Winnie the Pooh?

[Unknown]

They did, yes.

[Matt]

Yes, there is.

[Zane]

Like, why.

[Matt]

I think it's even the second one too.

[Zane]

The second one?

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

My God.

[Unknown]

Are they allowed to do that? Is it like, made by the.

[Matt]

I think Winnie Poo is so old where it's like. I think it's creative licensing.

[Unknown]

That's the name of the Blood and Honey.

[Zane]

Imagine like a. Like a place where you get like stem cells and you get like holistic stuff. Like, okay, Blood and Blood and Honey. I don't know. That sounds like a really high end place.

[Matt]

I'd spend my money at Blood and Honey. I mean, that's like a flavor of things, right?

[Zane]

A flavor of things like Blood and Honey.

[Matt]

I've had a. I've had a beer that's called like Blood and Honey before.

[Zane]

Damn it.

[Matt]

It's like blood so close. It's like blood orange, but with like honey kind of stuff. Okay. Flavorful.

Speaking of something spooky or spooky related, do you remember the peeping tom that we had? Yeah.

[Zane]

Yes. Oh, there's an update.

[Matt]

Well, Patricia and I were at the airport at the baggage claim, and this girl comes up to us and is like, matt, Patricia. They go, yeah. She goes, y'all, the peeping Tom, like, right in, like, what's Hollywood? We're like, yes. She goes, I was the other girl in the news segment.

[Zane]

Oh, my God.

[Unknown]

No way.

[Mariah]

How'd she know you if it was just the ring?

[Matt]

Because she was a girl who was, like, in the actual, like, news. News coverage, and she saw. She goes, I saw the ring cam and I saw the tick tock and, like, the story of us talking about the podcast. So she knew, like, about us, and we ran into her and we just, like, swap stories and all.

[Zane]

It's so funny how many people posted that clip and, like, as a normal tick tock, like, laughing at it, and it, like, went viral. But it was like, your guys's voice. It was a crazy, like, thing to interview.

[Matt]

It was funny. Like, I was like, that footage is gonna be out there. But I didn't think people would, like, find it that funn.

[Zane]

Yeah. That was, like, the first time I've ever seen anything like that, like, an interview through.

[Matt]

But, yeah, we ran into the other girl, like, who had the whole story.

[Zane]

That was so interesting.

[Matt]

Pretty crazy. Yeah.

[Unknown]

Wow.

[Matt]

The same flight. It was bizarre.

[Unknown]

Really bizarre.

[Zane]

But her face wasn't. Was her face in it?

[Matt]

I think hers was in it. I. Well, I think. Actually, no, I think it was, like, kind of like her neck and they, like, covered up her face. I could tell, like, what she looked like and. Yeah, I think that's right.

[Zane]

Just a whole meet and greet at the airport. I was like, who is that? It's like, those are the people from the rent.

[Unknown]

They have on.

[Matt]

Like, if you heard that, you'd be like, what are these people talking. Talking about?

[Mariah]

I have a fun little topic.

[Unknown]

Get it, bubba?

[Mariah]

I was talking about this in the car. I don't know how fun this conversation could be because we can't really say our own examples. But I was just thinking about how fun it is to know people's passwords for things and the story behind it.

[Matt]

Yes.

[Mariah]

Interesting.

[Zane]

Okay.

[Mariah]

I wish I could say my password because. Because it's so.

[Unknown]

Everybody has their own funny, weird story of their password and why it's their passion.

[Matt]

Yeah. I was just with Patricia the other day, and there was, like. We came across something, and I go, actually, that is, like, the password, like, I use on, like, a lot of stuff. And she was like, oh, okay. But it was. But I wish I could say, like, this what it was that I saw.

[Mariah]

I have a friend who. Her parents. They bonded over popcorn, like, 30 years ago when they met. And their password has always been popcorn.

[Matt]

Brilliant.

[Mariah]

Like, actually, I just.

[Matt]

One. That is just like that. That is so obscure. It was something that I saw one time. It's like a random thing.

[Mariah]

Yeah.

[Matt]

And it just. And I go, that's gonna be.

[Zane]

I can honestly. I can honestly say mine, but it's just. I. It's impossible for you to find it. Like, what do you.

[Matt]

What do you mean? I wouldn't even risk it because people can, like, fish an account and use it.

[Zane]

Really? Oh, my God. I just feel like it's really hard to, like, find because it. Because school, like, school IDs from, like, preschool school. Can you even. Can you even find that? Because, like, I don't think they still have that in the system.

[Matt]

I still remember it was like.

[Zane]

It was like my 15 code, like, preschool number.

[Unknown]

That's so funny.

[Mariah]

Oh, my God.

[Matt]

Whoa. Yeah.

[Zane]

And I've used. I've used it for, like, all my Life. But like it's so hard to remember.

[Mariah]

That's so cool. I love the back stories. Especially like they're like funny.

[Unknown]

The number you would type in for like your lunch.

[Zane]

It was something like that, but it was a long time. Like I'm surprised they even gave us little kids that big of a. Oh, I've used.

[Matt]

I've used friends phone numbers that I know don't work, like landline numbers as passwords sometimes.

[Zane]

Oh wait, that's really smart.

[Mariah]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Because I'm like, it's a non existent number. It's never connected to me. It's somebody else's number. But I'm using it for just one thing.

[Unknown]

Mine was. I was resetting like something like, I don't remember why, but I needed to reset my email password or whatever. And I was standing there and I was just trying to think of something and I just looked around and the first thing I saw is just what I made the password.

[Matt]

Oh yeah? Yeah.

[Unknown]

And it just stuck. And it's been like that for seven years now.

[Mariah]

Oh, I like, I talked to my cousins about their passwords and they're. And every. Almost everybody's like family related. It's just so funny.

[Matt]

I gotta do that with like my cousins and stuff because I bet it's a safe space with all that. It's just hard to.

[Mariah]

So funny peoples are just inside jokes from like 20 years ago. And you just have different forms of it because now you have to add like a symbol and like lowercase.

[Zane]

There was a good amount of time for maybe like a couple years where I. My password was like a date. It was 1-0607 and it was the date that I made the password and.

[Unknown]

Oh really?

[Zane]

And I put that as like it was my password for a long time. Another password that I had which I got hacked. So that was when everything was hacked and it was like as I should. It was like my, my dad's name. That's it.

[Matt]

It's easy. If people do a little bit of search and they can figure is there.

[Zane]

Is there some sort of cis like what? Because I know it's. I know they're not typing. They're typing different forms of like. Don't they put like all your information on something and it just like generates.

[Matt]

Facebook and stuff and they can look through all your statuses and just keep trying things over and over and over and over.

[Zane]

Isn't it like a system though? They're not like typing it. It's like a automated thing, right?

[Matt]

Fully automated.

[Zane]

That's so interesting.

[Matt]

Wow. Yeah.

[Zane]

Yeah. That's. Why.

[Matt]

Have you ever guessed somebody's password? Like, you've been, like, in a bind, and you just.

[Mariah]

My mom's book.

[Matt]

Oh. Patricia and I, we were at a hotel, and we got the. What was it? Oh, actually, we didn't really guess it, but we got the hotel key. We went all the way up, and it's Vegas, you know, Gotta go all the way up to, like, the floor. And we did it, and it didn't work. And I go. I was pissed because I was like, gosh, now we got to go all the way back down in the lobby. And I just went, wait a second. I just went to the door right next. And I went, boop. And it worked.

[Mariah]

They gave you the wrong room.

[Matt]

Gave us the wrong room. But thank goodness. This. In that one moment, I go, let's just give this a shot.

[Zane]

I would have never thought. It was like, that's crazy.

[Matt]

So, like, Patricia, how did you know that? And I was like, I don't know. I just wanted to test my options.

[Zane]

Intuition. Very good, man. Put your ass in a CIA movie.

[Matt]

Then we were worried. We. Then we were worried because we're like, we should probably go down. Yeah.

[Mariah]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Because someone's gonna get assigned the wrong room or they're gonna charge us for that. We never checked out. I don't know. It was.

[Zane]

That's something. I always roll my eyes at one. One scene every time whenever I watch a movie. And they're, like, trying to figure out the password. They're like, and. And they get it right like the first time I roll immediately. It doesn't matter how big budget the movie is. Just like, come on, let's be a little bit like, I want you to hook it in. Go on your computer.

[Unknown]

Try to, like, let it sit overnight and run different combinations.

[Zane]

I don't know.

[Matt]

Yeah, it's like, oh, what was Dad's favorite thing? It was his. It was his car. It was his motorcycle. It was. It was me.

[Zane]

And it was.

[Matt]

It was.

[Mariah]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Matt]

Like, access granted.

[Zane]

And it's like. It's a villain's pass trying to, like, blow up planet Earth. And it's like. You figured out the password.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Come on.

[Unknown]

The only thing that scares me is a lot of accounts. You'll make, like, your password or whatever, and then it makes you do the. The three question security question thing. And it's all stuff you can Google about, and it's like, mother's maiden name.

[Matt]

I'm like, what was your elementary school?

[Unknown]

Anybody can find this information out Those questions are really.

[Matt]

That's the worst with boomers now. They act like little Tumblr teenagers, where they're just like, where was your first job? Oh, it was at Dairy Queen. And they're answering, what color? What is your favorite color? They're like, aqua blue. Like, they go, what's your favorite ice cream flavor? They're answering all the fucking secrets. You give it all away. You give it all away.

[Mariah]

That episode of the Office where they're trying to figure out, I think it was Michael's password. And they're all trying to figure it out, but they're like, what year did he make the password? Okay, Lord of the Rings was big. Try this. Try. Like, they were really thinking. They were like, try big boobs. And he, like, was typing it in. She goes, are you really typing that? He goes, we gotta try everything. And they were like, try big boobs with a Z. And it, like, got so good.

[Unknown]

So, so good.

[Zane]

It's very Pimp [e-mail].

[Mariah]

I wonder what your password was for that.

[Zane]

I think it was, like, pizza face something, because that's what. Pizza face something. Yeah, that's what I was, like, called. So I was like, you know, I'm gonna. I'm gonna take. Take what people use to make me feel bad. I'm.

[Unknown]

Mm.

[Matt]

I had a magician one time guess one of my passwords straight.

[Unknown]

No way.

[Matt]

And I'm. Sometimes I'm convinced that Mike told him about it, because it was one of Mike's friends, and he just really wanted to wow me. But still, to this day, Mike is like, I didn't know. And I'm like, how?

[Zane]

It's like, they must have talked to somebody before because there's just no way the password one.

[Matt]

I was the most freaked out I'd ever been. But I Sometimes, deep down, at the end of the day, I think Mike told him. Patricia and I, we were just with the magician in New York. We got, like, invited to go the Fly Fish Club, which is, like, Gary Vaynerchuk's new social lounge. And they had, like, a. We got tight.

[Unknown]

Me thinking he went fly fishing. That's so cool.

[Matt]

We have to meet the chap. We're with Gary. There was a magician. He's doing tricks on us. Gets Patricia to. He guesses her oldest, like, childhood, like, dog, like, writes it down on a piece of paper, already has it down on a piece of paper. And he's like, oh, was it a. It was a lab. It was. No, it wasn't a lab. It was actually like, it was a lab. It was like a black lab. And like, I'm getting an R. He goes, what's Matt's middle name? Or like, it's R. R. Okay, so we've get an R, blah, blah, blah. And she's like, yes, yes. And she goes, okay, now I want you to say it. And Matt, you pick this up. And I had it. And it was. She was like, rascal. And it was a rascal.

[Zane]

Did she write it down?

[Matt]

She never wrote it down.

[Zane]

Oh, she was just thinking it.

[Matt]

She was just thinking it.

[Zane]

Wow.

[Matt]

He was able to be a mentalist and get it out of her.

[Zane]

It's kind of like your guy that you're saying, believable.

[Mariah]

That's really cool, right?

[Zane]

The guy that you're saying that was at your Thanksgiving.

[Unknown]

He wasn't really a mentalist. He was more of just, like, medium.

[Zane]

Oh.

[Unknown]

Getting, like, people talking to him. But that's. Mentalists are insane.

[Matt]

Oh. And then he had one where he was like, I want you to scroll through everyone in your phone. Pick a random name. Okay, now do you know this person? Like, it was a person from college. I haven't, like, talked to them in 10 years. Okay, what's. And he's like, writing it down on his thing. Goes. I'm getting like, an A. This. Okay, now dd. Like, it's like, Angelica. Angelica Davis. And I'm like, what the fuck? How did you.

[Zane]

That's insane.

[Matt]

I couldn't.

[Zane]

And I'm just like. Then rob a bank.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

You know, if you're so good, what are you doing? Why are you wasting your time here?

[Matt]

Some tricks. I think there are some tricks, but I don't like poking holes in it. But it was very like.

[Zane]

But, like, I want to see you, like, rob a bit. Like, do something that's gonna really wow me.

[Matt]

You know, maybe. I bet they could do it, but. But they would lose their magic license.

[Unknown]

Did you see those hackers that just stole, like, $260 million?

[Zane]

No. I don't know. Is it?

[Unknown]

It was like these, like, group of hackers that got access to 260 million, $250 million or something worth of cryptocurrency. They did, like, the hack where you could go into somebody's screen and, like, watch them put their password in, and.

[Matt]

You would just get their wallet number.

[Unknown]

And you have access to, like, everything. They wired all the money. They did this while live streaming, though.

[Matt]

What?

[Unknown]

And we're, like, celebrating and, like, going crazy, like, bragging about the whole thing and ended up getting caught because they were like, we're just.

[Zane]

Why the stupid live streaming it? Oh, did they not think it was gonna work?

[Matt]

Work?

[Unknown]

I don't know.

[Zane]

I can see me live streaming thinking it's not gonna work.

[Matt]

And then it works like, I'm so sorry, give it back. My bad.

[Unknown]

Whoops.

[Matt]

Oopsie.

[Zane]

That's crazy that they live streamed it.

[Unknown]

So stupid.

[Mariah]

Have you guys seen the AI video of, like, this is just an example, but it's one that's going viral. It's like a baby cow the size of someone's hand. But it's clearly AI.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Mariah]

And all the comments of the boomers.

[Unknown]

No, they believe it.

[Matt]

Unbelievable. This is just God. God's own creatures.

[Mariah]

Where can I get one?

[Matt]

Oh, yeah.

[Mariah]

Oh, my wife would die. Where can I get one?

[Zane]

Or the opposite. Or they're just like, we're doomed. Yeah, we are doomed.

[Matt]

Or they made like this insane. They're clothing sculpture out of tin cans. This little boy in the third world country.

[Zane]

Oh, my. Oh, my God.

[Unknown]

It's literally the size of the thumb. There's no way people.

[Matt]

That would be kind of cool.

[Zane]

Did you see. I just saw this on my. Did you see the AI page? I think it's on Twitter or TikTok. I don't know. But if you send the page a picture, any picture, like in any. From anywhere, it the. The AI will go through every single camera and it'll be able to send you recorded footage of when you took that picture. Like, you see the person walking and then getting the picture done from, like, cameras are all over, like open cameras, and they have a whole page where someone will send their picture and then they reply back.

[Matt]

But it's AI generated.

[Zane]

I don't know if the page is AI generated or if the person's Using something and then, like, a human is posting it. You know what I mean?

[Matt]

I would just love to find, like, every photo that's been taken of me, but I've been in the background of, like, somebody's photo. Yeah. Or just, like, all, like, I want.

[Mariah]

To know if I'm hanging in someone's house in the background, like, on the beach.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

I love those stories where it was, like, this couple that's married.

[Unknown]

Yes.

[Matt]

They were at Disney World at the same time as a kid. As kids, sitting in the background of someone's shots that I would love to see if, like, you kicked. Can permit access with somebody else and see if we ever cross paths in our entire photo.

[Zane]

I see. That makes my hairs go up. It's so crazy seeing, like, what are the odds?

[Matt]

What are the odds? My friend Arden. Arden. Arden Rose. Will Darby. Sure. They're both of their parents were in town. We're hanging out with their parents all in the backyard. Arden's from Arkansas, and I always loved Arden's name. And I'm with her mom, and I'm like, I, you've named your daughter a great name. How did you come up with the name? Architecture. And she goes, oh, that's so funny. You know, Jet, Arden's dad, he was a grad student at smu, and he had this great academic advisor who we just loved. She was this lovely woman, and her name was Arden. I'm going to hide the last name just out of privacy.

[Zane]

Say Wilkinson.

[Matt]

Wilkinson. Okay. There was this lovely academic advisor, Arden Wilkinson. We loved her. She was awesome, and we just. I was just always inspired just to name Arden from that name. And, yeah. It's just. That's how he got it. And in my head, I'm like, an academic advisor at SMU with the last name Wilkinson. I know a girl who went to Highland park, which is a high school that's right there in the SMU area, with the last name Wilkinson. Once again, guys, Wilkinson. Changing the last name. I go, what are the odds that, like, I. That girl is related to that woman? I go on Facebook, find my friend with the last name Wilkinson, and I type in Arden Wilkins. And sure enough, this lady shows up that she's mutual friends with. And I'm showing Arden's mom. She's like, oh, my God. How did you find them? Like, just Facebook. But I know a girl who I think is connected to this woman. She's like, oh, my gosh. Go up and show Jet. I'm showing Jet, like, the picture. I go, do you know who she Goes like, go up and show Jet, but don't say who it is. And I'm like, do you know who this is? And Jet's like, oh, my God. Is that. Is that Arden Wilkinson? And so I didn't reach out to my friend. I go, hey, no, we haven't talked in, like, 15, 20 years or whatever.

[Zane]

I'm surprised you go that far. Me, I be like, I know somebody, and then I leave it.

[Mariah]

Like, you have no idea. Matt's hat says J. Press. My cousin's name is Jordan Press. I couldn't wait to bring it up. I was gonna.

[Matt]

I was gonna ask, but this is also. This is me after, like, this is also my brain. 6. After six glasses of wine, I'm just, like, sober. I mean, but I was just like, hey, what's.

[Unknown]

I'm just curious.

[Matt]

And so then I reach out to this girl finally, and I go, hey, I noticed you're related to this other artist, Arden. Do you. What's the connection here? She goes, that's my grandmother.

[Mariah]

And I. Oh, my God.

[Matt]

Little did I. And.

[Mariah]

And so I tell, you know who Arden's named after?

[Matt]

A friend I've had out here for now 10 years.

[Mariah]

I'm so done.

[Zane]

That's crazy.

[Matt]

Her name is named after a friend I know from back in Dallas's grandmother.

[Zane]

So that's insane.

[Matt]

Insane. Sil. Weird. Silver string. But, I mean, it's just. Yeah, she just said that last name. Once again, wasn't Wilkinson something very.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Specific. But I was just like. The only other person who I know has that last name is somebody who lives in that area right near that university. Just give it a shot. Crazy.

[Zane]

Crazy.

[Mariah]

That's why it's fun to ask questions and dig, because literally, everybody.

[Unknown]

You'll find the connection.

[Mariah]

So fun to find the connection.

[Zane]

Damn, Mariah.

[Unknown]

Anytime she goes to a bagel shop. And here's a New York accent.

[Mariah]

Where you from?

[Unknown]

What part?

[Matt]

What part?

[Mariah]

Where you from?

[Zane]

All right, so who's J. Press?

[Matt]

J. Press is a men's clothing store City.

[Zane]

What if your friend.

[Mariah]

My cousin.

[Matt]

Your cousin is related to J.

[Zane]

Press?

[Mariah]

I'll introduce you to him at the wedding.

[Zane]

Wow.

[Unknown]

I can't get over that story.

[Matt]

Yeah, it was. I so glad I went with my gut just to at least look it up, just to try. Could have, like, missed out on that one detail and just, like, put it to the wayside and just, like, totally forgotten about it, but I was like, what? That's. That's a very specific last name, and I'm so curious if that hits My.

[Unknown]

Favorite is similar to that, but guessing that somebody's related just by their looks.

[Mariah]

Oh, yes.

[Zane]

Like, oh, yeah.

[Mariah]

That was weird because that was a total strange.

[Unknown]

That was unbelievable. Just, like, seeing, like, somebody, like, you're like, they look like they would be related to this person.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah.

[Unknown]

We did it at a store that we went to. I was, like, talking to, like, one of the cashier guys, and I was looking at a dude in the background ground, and he looks just like somebody that we know. And I don't know how it got brought up, why, what happened, but it turned out to be this dude's brother.

[Matt]

Whoa. That.

[Unknown]

I was like, he looks just like that guy.

[Mariah]

But it's like, you told me. You were like, doesn't this. Doesn't that kid look like him? And I looked. I was like, yeah, he does. And then conversation started. You didn't bring it up because why would anybody know who we're talking?

[Unknown]

And this is, like, hours away. Like, it was.

[Matt]

Yeah. Insurance enough. Perfect match.

[Mariah]

He also has a crazy story where, like, they. I guess we could say, like, they're actually brothers, but they just found out they were brothers.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Mariah]

With the person we know.

[Unknown]

Oh, like, that whole story came from a separate. Oh, like a separate.

[Zane]

Did you know, though, before they knew?

[Matt]

No.

[Zane]

So it's almost like you knew. You had an inkling feeling before they found out that they were brother. That's crazy. That's a. That's a whole documentary. That's an episode.

[Unknown]

Like, the husband, like, went off in the marriage and had an affair and had this other son, and they were. Dude, I'm telling you, like, it was so weird how much they looked alike.

[Matt]

That's wild.

[Zane]

Imagine bumping into that person. Like, imagine they bumped each other at, like, a bar at a restaurant. You're just like, I'm sorry.

[Unknown]

It's like you're looking at yourself just.

[Mariah]

Like parent, tribe, brothers, Hal, twins.

[Zane]

I'm like that with people that have my name.

[Matt]

You're like.

[Zane]

No brothers. No, It's. It's crazy. I. I checked our id. I'm like, you have. I'll have like a hour and a half. An hour and a half conversation because I think that we're related in some way, that we have same first name. It's crazy.

[Matt]

Crazy, crazy. Oh, that. I knew a kid or I knew a person who had an adopted sibling, and one of the person's brother went to a private school, and the brother at the private school, there was a girl in his class that was. He always was like, you look just like my sister, his adopted sister and was like always would say it was crazy and he would come home and was like, mom, there's this girl at my school. She looks just like our adopted sister. Well, the mom looked into it because she was like, this might be true. Looked into it and turns out that the other girl was the adopted. Other adopted sister.

[Mariah]

Were they twins or just.

[Matt]

No, just like sisters. But they were both adopted and so they. She. Another family in the area had also adopted.

[Zane]

What are the rules with that? Again, you're not allowed to tell them until they're 18. If they're. I think they have like brothers and sisters.

[Matt]

I also think that the person, the, the mom I knew just decided didn't want to make the connection between them because it would have complicated because the child was so young too. And like, I think there comes traumatic.

[Mariah]

Like that's like a lot I know.

[Matt]

Yeah, it's a stage of like where the. I mean the girl was like five and like another five year old. And if you're telling that this five year old that they have this other like sibling can really complicate because all they're trying to get is attached.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Matt]

And like understand your house later on.

[Mariah]

Natural bond.

[Matt]

But it was a very like freak.

[Zane]

It doesn't matter what age. It could cause problems, right?

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

Doesn't matter what age they find out.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Mariah]

It's heavy information.

[Matt]

It's just important because you have that.

[Mariah]

Like natural gravitation towards like.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Mariah]

Your own family members.

[Zane]

I just watched that, that documentary through identical strangers. That one really hit me. I was like, that is absolutely insane. Imagine looking at the newspaper and seeing two people that look just like you. And headline is they found a brother has found each other. And you're the third one. You're looking at this crazy. Oh my God. Like I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about.

[Unknown]

Me looking so weird.

[Zane]

Crazy. What a crazy story.

[Matt]

Documentary.

[Unknown]

No, I know the whole story.

[Zane]

Oh my God. It's a wonderful documentary. Oh my God.

[Matt]

It's also sad. It gets.

[Zane]

It's really sad.

[Matt]

And it's a crazy reveal about why they were all separated. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Mariah]

I swear. You like also, I feel like you gravitate and you get these instincts like talk to certain people and get to the bottom of things because there is a connection.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Mariah]

This one's not crazy at all. It's just another example. But like the other day my cousin was at the park and she just gravitated towards this other mom because they had like the same beliefs and things and they were just like chit chatting and it turns out they're cousins and they were just like, wait. Yeah, they like got. She sent me, like the whole story. I forget how they figured it out, but they realized that they were related.

[Matt]

So weird.

[Mariah]

Just so weird. Like the one mom she decides to talk to at the park part.

[Unknown]

I feel like it, like pulls you for a reason, though. Like, something about it just, like, makes you.

[Zane]

Isn't it crazy? We're related to so many people just. We just never met.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Zane]

So crazy.

[Matt]

I know. And your, like, lineage goes so far back too.

[Zane]

You'd be walking amongst them. You could be friends with them. You just have.

[Unknown]

We could be related right now in some way. Yeah. And we just don't know.

[Matt]

Do you think, like, I bet it will be real like a hundred years from now. Like our great. Or like just great, great grandkids. Or like, oh, let me pull up my dad, my great great grandpa's old podcast. And just watching these clips, like, look at this. I was related. This man from 100 years ago. Look at what they're wearing. Oh, my. And they're holding these mic things in front of them and they have headphones on and it's. But they have this. They have the 70s. It's not the 70s, but it's.

[Unknown]

I rewatched Back to the Future and it's crazy.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah.

[Unknown]

What they nailed from, like the 80s.

[Mariah]

Such a good movie.

[Matt]

Oh, when they go to the future.

[Unknown]

Just like they. They had like, where they jumped back to future too.

[Matt]

They go to the future.

[Unknown]

So they went to the future. They went to, like the year 2015. And in 2015, there was a 1980s themed bar. And he was like, what is that? Like, why is. Oh, there's still. He's like, oh, no, it's a. It's a. It's a bar in the future. But they made it look like it was in the 80s for like a nostalgic type thing. And then they're like, looking at. He's like, I don't know. It's just like. Like, that stuff is.

[Zane]

So did they nail 2015?

[Matt]

No. No.

[Unknown]

There's like flying car.

[Matt]

Flying cars. Flying hoverboards. Like. Yeah, I've never seen that. I don't know.

[Unknown]

Yeah, but like, there was a few things that they got that I was.

[Zane]

Like, 2015, flying cars is crazy.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Why?

[Mariah]

When, like, we predict the future, it's like all floating. Everything's like, floating.

[Zane]

But what's crazy is that we can do flying cars. It's just. It's just not smart to do flying cars, you know what I mean?

[Matt]

Why is that?

[Mariah]

The like be more creative.

[Matt]

Because I think people were like, well, we're making planes and if that goes in the sky, why can't we do that for?

[Mariah]

There's so much more ideas to think of.

[Zane]

It's hard to. It's just so hard to regulate that.

[Unknown]

And it's so easy to go to that first. Like.

[Zane]

Yeah. Or the build those buildings that just like look like, like Dubai buildings.

[Matt]

Pretty much, yeah.

[Zane]

Because when you look at Dubai, that looks like a futuristic city, right?

[Unknown]

Yes.

[Zane]

Right now. Like right now it looks like a futuristic city.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Even like China, like parts of China and like Japan look super futuristic.

[Matt]

Oh yeah, 100%. It's just interesting. Like we create these buildings because that's what we think the future will look like. But then sometimes it kind of looks like that was our version of what the future was. But in a way it looks like faux future.

[Unknown]

The 80s is so interesting because they were making things that like this is what the future is. And like the designs from the 80s.

[Matt]

Retro.

[Unknown]

Retro Futurism, 60s, 70s, 70s space age. So cool.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And it's very futuristic. But like when you look at it.

[Mariah]

You now see our idea of futuristic. Just very alien esque.

[Unknown]

Like cars from the 80s, like their lights.

[Mariah]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Are to look futuristic. And like the dashes and the tech. Because it was like when tech was first coming out. It's so bizarre. And then when you look back at it, you're like, oh, that looks.

[Matt]

Yeah. I was watching like the first alien which is set in like 2000, 2200 or like 2044. It's like very far away. But they're in these massive spaceships and they're like galaxies away. But they're a computer. Like their AI they're talking to. It's the black screen with like green data. And I'm like, they couldn't but put like just a color TV in here and just made it look like touch screen. They got buttons everywhere. Like, I'm like, where's the touch screen?

[Zane]

Yeah, but like, I mean like they got buttons for the future is crazy.

[Matt]

Like, okay. And there's smoking cigs in space. Like you're like, that wouldn't be allowed.

[Zane]

So funny though, like futuristic things. It does look very cheesy when you like really think about it. That's why like when I feel like that's why when people are making or building new homes and they're. They're like going back to like 1990s styles just because I feel like the futuristic looking stuff is like people actually don't really want it.

[Matt]

People like romanticizing the past. It makes me feel a little bit more grounded, a little bit more human of a nicer time. Sometimes we don't want everything.

[Unknown]

Yeah, I cried at the flea market.

[Mariah]

More color.

[Matt]

It'll get there. It'll get there. I'm optimistic.

[Zane]

It's just sad.

[Matt]

I think architecturally what we've been like building.

[Unknown]

Oh, it's terrible.

[Matt]

Just going.

[Unknown]

There's no. It's so sad person look at everything is just so.

[Zane]

This looks like a hotel lobby.

[Matt]

So yeah. This millennial I call just a millennial flip. And it's just like we really don't.

[Mariah]

Because they can get these things up overnight.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Mariah]

So basic. There's no easy.

[Unknown]

And then it's like if you make something plain, it's not like you have like an orange colored building with like color and character and like, well, somebody might not want an orange house, but it's like people used to pick homes because like they liked that.

[Zane]

I also think they just like now they're just like, let's just make everything gray. Which is terrible. But like they know that they're. These people are going to end up painting what they want anyway. So just give them a blank and let them do what they want. Even though they put like really cheap shit just to like make it.

[Matt]

I just want to see like. Yeah, because a lot of like homes I like are like the craftsman homes. Those like almost Sears kit houses that like were so iconic at the time. But like, bring those back, those kits and just those types of frameworks I would love to see. I just don't want everything open concept.

[Zane]

Yeah. Like this, like this room.

[Matt]

I could use some crown molding and maybe some Wayne Scotting, but I'm fine with it.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

It's so funny. Like getting older you appreciate those things. Like when I was younger, I'm like crown molding. That's so ugly. But now I'm like, it's just so.

[Matt]

It enriches a home.

[Unknown]

I think it makes it so much to it.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zane]

It just feels like it's missing now when you look up.

[Matt]

Just popcorn ceilings don't bring back popcorn. Jesus with. They were like, let's bring back that. It's just an awful idea. Whoever thought of doing popcorn ceilings?

[Unknown]

Like, I'm, I'm restoring my big red.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And it's so funny because when I was younger I wanted everything. Like my customizations were like, paint the rims black, all the Logos, Black them out. Black out the grill. Do this, like, black out the. I remember spray painting my tail lights.

[Matt]

Trying to modernize it. Yeah.

[Unknown]

And you like, I was just doing that and like, now I'm undoing all of those things that I did when I first got the truck and I'm like, I'm putting it back to stock. I'm putting the stock.

[Zane]

You're trying to look like you lived in Gotham City.

[Unknown]

Like, interesting. Going back to like just that. Oem. Like.

Oh, they're putting a Rainforest Cafe at the top of the Empire State Building.

[Mariah]

The top building.

[Zane]

Wait, what?

[Matt]

So Empire State Building on top. The Empire State Building made a joke on April Fool's Day that they were gonna do a Rainforest Cafe on top.

[Zane]

It's really fun.

[Matt]

Now they're actually gonna do one, but it's like, it's a pop up, but for only a week. But like, they're gonna do like the Rainforest Cafe.

[Zane]

I'm a big fan of pop ups. They should do pop ups like that just with anything they can think of. Just like throw it somewhere, pop up, have people enjoy it and then get rid of it.

[Mariah]

If it's only for a week, I'd be down to go.

[Zane]

Yeah, you fly in for it.

[Mariah]

That's kind of funny.

[Matt]

Yeah. The Empire State Building has been having like a lot of sense of humor. Did you talk account?

[Zane]

Did you see they're doing a lot of press around that?

[Mariah]

I love that the businesses and companies are now like, they don't take things too seriously. They're having more fun and they're realizing like, what's getting people to come in? It's stuff like this. Like, this is gonna bring people together.

[Zane]

I do like that they're not being so uptight and professional about their.

[Mariah]

Yeah, yeah.

[Zane]

They're like, they're having a little bit more fun with their jokes and what they're posting and not taking too seriously on, like, what goes out.

[Matt]

Absolutely. Just a fun little thing that they're doing. I'm excited that there's. They're having a little bit of personality with.

[Zane]

Yeah, that's good. Okay. I was just so curious. I didn't know if it was like a.

[Matt]

Do you remember dioramas?

[Zane]

Diorama.

[Matt]

Because a kid. You made like a little scene out of a shoebox.

[Mariah]

Yep. Ecosystem.

[Zane]

[Mariah]

Oh, yeah.

[Matt]

Oh, when we did the Guess.

[Zane]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Oh, a box of lies.

[Zane]

[Zane]

Do you think Charlie saw that was like.

[Matt]

[Zane]

Yes. They have so many different flavors on there. My personal favorite is the cookies and cream. Because I love chocolate so much, I put it in my yogurt. I'll have it with my strawberries. Every night. I eat like cake batter. It's truly incredible and it's super healthy, guilt free. This makes you not want to have to eat ice cream, cookies and all that good at night.
